Sometime ago, I was talking to someone who was raised in a family where the deep questions of life were really never answered. Where she came from, who made her, what she was placed here to do, what went wrong in the world, what happened in our world to make it what it is today, and how is it being fixed, and what I can do to help fix it – were all questions that were never answered for her. Now, picture this. God is never talked about. The Bible is just another dusty, ancient book. The church is irrelevant, talking about things that you don't understand. Prayer is more like muttering to yourself than talking to Someone and everyone assumes that I should want more of this! We have to realize what it's like not to know.
This young lady wrote me a letter. She writes: "Pastor Joey, Does it make me different, because I look at things different than others? Does it make me a bad person because I go to church, but don't understand God? Am I doing the right thing by coming to church on Sunday's even though I don't understand? Why it it so important to have a leader like "God"? Why can't we be our own leaders?… Why does it have to be a religion?… Please help me to understand God and what makes Him so special."
That's what is behind much of this blog. Let's answer these questions in ways that people can understand.

The last few days saw Google launching two new apps – 'Google Fit' – its answer to Apple's health app and 'Inbox by Gmail' – its new standalone email app. With features like snooze, reminders and bundles [which puts together reminders, emails etc], Google has definitely tried to reinvent and ensure that they don't have another Gmail app.
Whether Inbox will make inroads on the SmartPhones globally, only time will tell. Till then, let's look at how 'Gmail app' is used by our ODM panelists across markets in this week's newsletter.
Our data reveals that Gmail app is more popular in the US and India. While users from US spend around 3 hrs per month on the app, engagement in the other countries is very low.

Long before I am near enough to talk to you on the street, in a meeting or at a party, you announce your sex, age, and class to me through what you are wearing, and very possibly give me important information (or misinformation) as to your occupation, origin, personality, opinions tastes sexual desires, and current mood. By the time we meet and converse, we have already spoken to each other in an older and more universal tongue.
-Allison Lurie, Author of The Language of Clothes
Appearances count, especially in the business world. When one college's career planning and placement center surveyed 150 employers, they discovered that the number-one reason for rejecting an applicant after the first interview was poor personal appearance.
Interestingly, those employers ranked poor appearance even more significantly than being a hostile, overbearing know-it-all (reason no. 9) or late for the interview without a good reason (reason no. 28). Social psychologists have determined that it can take just thirty seconds for the interviewer to assess:
• Educational level
• Career competence and success
• Personality
• Level of sophistication
• Trustworthiness
• Sense of humor
• Social heritage
To avoid pigeonholing yourself before you've even shaken hands, putting some extra effort into ensuring your interview attire is presenting you well from the start.
Dress the part. Ensure that your attire is making the right impression by dressing for the job you want, not the job you have/had. Look and ask around: how do people who currently hold the position dress? This will vary industry to industry, and isn't a one-size fits all solution.
Dress to impress. No matter the job, you should be dressing in a professional manner (steer clear of jeans and tee shirts for most interviews), but professional means different things in different industries. As a general rule, the more creative the industry, the more fun you can have with your outfit. An interview for a conservative position or with a conservative company may call for a suit or nice pants and a professional top (blouse or button up) in darker colors with an opportunity for personality in a tie or some tasteful jewelry. A position in an artist's gallery, alternately, gives more room to show some personal flair in an outfit, and doesn't necessarily call for the formality of a suit. Do some research and take your potential employer into consideration: while some galleries, for example, may embrace a just-off-the-runway look, others may be more traditional and prefer a candidate in a minimalist business attire.
Dress comfortably. There's very little chance that showing up in sweatpants will get you the job, but dressing in an outfit you're just not comfortable in could be equally detrimental to your potential employment. If you don't feel good in what you're wearing, it will show in your confidence. If the outfit is too far out of your comfort zone, you may fidget and give off an air of insecurity. If the clothes don't fit well, you may be tempted to tug at the hems or constantly reposition yourself to be comfortable. While it's important to dress suitably for the role, it's also imperative to be confident in what you are wearing. Finding a balance between the two may be a challenge, but will make a big difference in how you're perceived by your future employer.

If you have a lot of encounter in the business world, it may be a great idea to begin your personal business development consulting firm. You can make use of your expertise to make a great deal of money while also getting the ability to choose your clients. What other advantages are there to establishing a consulting firm?
Charge Just as much Money While you Want
When you work for yourself, you can cost as much as the market will bear. In some instances, you can make $100 an hour or more if you work for a large sufficient company. However, working for as small as $20 an hour continues to be a great rate of spend for everything you will be doing for your customers.
Get Regular Work Performing Some thing That you Love
As soon as you identify yourself as an superb consultant, you will obtain loyal clients who will use you on a long-term foundation. This implies that you won't have to get up every morning questioning if you are going to make the car payment on time or pay your mortgage this month. Because you're doing something that you adore, you won't really feel as stressed or as bitter about working lengthy hrs if a client needs you to finish a venture as quickly as possible.
Have A Hand Obtaining A New Company Off The Floor
Working with small business proprietors can be a gratifying experience. If a company that you simply worked for gets to be the next significant search engine supplier or quick food company, you can consider pride in understanding that your suggestions performed a part in that. In some instances, you may be able to obtain stock in the company as part of your payment package deal. That means that you simply may actually see your hard work spend off in more ways than one.
Consider The Weekends Off
Although you may require to meet with a consumer on a Saturday every so often, you get to determine whenever you work and whenever you don't work. In case your kid is ill or you just don't desire to get up before midday on a Wednesday, you can schedule many of your appointments around your routine. This tends to make it simpler to achieve a work-life balance that permits you to make money while also using time to perform golf or go to Florida to see your kids from time to time.
Acquire Connections Within The Community
These who've political aspirations may want to make connections with business owners and other people who have money in the community. Business consultants have the unique ability to show the things they know while also getting the capability to develop personal associations with possible voters.

At the Niagara North Family Health Team, we are committed to providing the best care possible for you and your family.
We are have formalized our commitment to delivering high quality care to our patients, community and ourselves presented in our current Quality Improvement Plan (QIP). This plan outlines our goals and objectives for quality improvement over this next year. Some of our quality improvement activities include: collecting data on the performance of our team, strengthening our partnerships with the Niagara Health System and to understand how we are doing through the eyes of our patients. This year's QIP focuses on the three key quality indicators of Access, Integration and Patient-Centredness.
Access refers to how easily you can get services and care from our family health team. Our team is beginning to evaluate how easy it is to get an appointment with a care provider when you have a concern that needs to be addressed right away or on the "same day". We are also looking at how long it takes to get an appointment with your care provider when you need a routine or non-urgent appointment. We will also ask you to tell us about your experiences with getting an appointment through our patient survey.
When services are integrated, there is a smooth flow of information from one health care provider to another. We are working with our partners at the Niagara Health System to improve the flow of information between our two sites. Better communication will help us to ensure that we see you within seven days of your discharge from the hospital and that we have all of the information that we need to provide good care.
Patient Centred
Through this goal, our team hopes to understand the experience of care through the eyes of our patients. In order to help us with this goal, we hope that you will take a moment and complete our patient survey. Your input is important to us and will help to shape the programs and services offered by our Family Health Team in the future.

High Frequency Word in Spanish 47 – SOBRE
Sobre is the forty seventh most common word in the Spanish Language.
This lively two-syllable is both a masculine noun and a preposition. My Collins Spanish -English dictionary gives the following key meanings of the word.
Sobre as a masculine noun means an "envelope"
Sobre as a preposition means "on".
It is clear though that most of the use of sobre will be with its meaning of "on".
Here is an example of each of the meanings.
¿Dónde está el sobre? – where is the envelope? Sobre, therefore, is being used as as a masculine noun.
Sobre la mesa – on the table In this case, sobre is being used as a preposition.
And here is a sentence, putting both of the previous examples of both the noun and the preposition into action. Such fun!
El sobre está sobre la mesa – The envelope is on the table
To conclude – sobre is the 47th most common word in the Spanish language. It doubles up as both a masculine noun and a preposition. Such are the varied lives led by these high frequency Spanish words!

Dear Fertile,
My name is Frenchie, and I have taken it upon myself to write you this letter on behalf of myself and my other Infertile friends. We have a few requests for you, if you would please take a moment to consider the following:
1. Please, and I mean PUH-LEEAAASSSE (!) don't whine and moan about your pregnancy symptoms in front of your infertile friends. I know you are uncomfortable, and indeed you have every right to bitch about your swollen ankles and your aching back. But, keep it between you and your fellow fertile friends. Trust me, no matter how "fine" your Infertile friend might seem, she DOESN'T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT. Consider the following: Though you are struggling with discomfort and even pain, it is nothing compared to the pain of infertility. Your infertile friend would gladly take on all the nausea and discomfort if it meant she could be pregnant and deliver a healthy baby. I know, I know, the extra weight of your pregnancy is making your plantar fasciitis bother you even more, and I know it sucks you have to wear that brace thingy on your foot, but your infertile friend would probably cut off her own leg below the knee and stick in a broom handle for a peg-leg and hobble around on that for the rest of her life if it meant she could be pregnant and deliver a healthy baby.
2. Please, PLEASE! If you MUST complain about your symptoms and problems, DO NOT say something like, "I just wish my body would function normally." Hey, all bets are off when it comes to being pregnant with regard to what weird things your body is going to do, and you signed up for that when you got knocked up. Deal. Again, I know it sucks, but keep those kinds of comments to yourself. I guarantee your infertile friend is thinking, "Well, your body functions normally enough to make a baby!" Trust me, she'd trade places with you in a fetal heartbeat.
3. If you have recently found yourself pregnant, don't try and hide it from your infertile friend, but be nice, and find a time when you are not at a party or some other gathering to give her the news. Do NOT under any circumstances, start musing about how easy it was to get pregnant, or what strong swimmers your husband must have. Such comments are dangerous, because they have been known to send Infertiles into psychotic fits. If you must talk about such things, make sure the room is clear of sharp objects.
4. Be supportive of your friend. Especially if she has 1. had a pregnancy loss (no matter how early in the pregnancy), 2. has recently gotten bad news on the type of infertility she and her partner are facing, or 3. has recently had a negative pregnancy test after a cycle of IVF or IUI. Treat these things with the same reverence and caring you would give her if she had 1. lost a "real" living child. Believe me, from the moment she got a positive pregnancy test, that child was very real and living. 2. had just found out about another serious medical crisis, such as cancer. Studies show the stress Infertiles deal with is the VERY SAME level as those dealing with life-threatening illnesses such as cancer. It is a very real life-crisis. 3. had just gone through a very expensive and risky procedure to potentially cure her life-threatening illness, and was told by the doctors that it didn't work.
5. Speaking of IVF and IUI, take TWO minutes to go on the internet and find out what some common lingo is in your friend's world. Really, you should know what an RE is. COME ON!
6. When you do spend time with your infertile friend, please understand, she may not want to hear about every other friend, co-worker, family member or acquaintance of yours that is ALSO pregnant. I know pregnancy is very much on your mind right now, but find SOMETHING ELSE to talk about, honestly. Every new pregnancy announcement is like a dagger in your infertile friend's gut.
Thank you for taking the time to consider these suggestions. If we work together, the relations between Infertiles and Fertiles can hopefully improve.

"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." Hellen Keller, The Open Door 1957
Every time we run off on an adventure, we accept a degree of danger. It is, arguably, one of the best ways to have fun. Twenty and thirty-somethings comprise two of the highest risk outdoor recreation groups. As a member of that demographic, I really wonder sometimes what has stopped me from becoming a statistic. Undoubtedly, some of it is plain luck. I would like to think, however, there are plenty of other instances where I exercised intelligent risk taking.
While there are many situations that are inconsequential and can be examined on the fly, more often than we allow, they deserve deliberate thought. After all, being stuck in the backcountry for days with a broken leg may not be worth a ten-minute shortcut. However, circumstance may dictate the necessity for that shortcut. Let me give you an example where a pal and I let circumstance push us into poor decision making.
It was early May, and we were atop a fourteen-thousand-foot peak in the Eastern Sierras. Weather was due shortly and we were miles from the trailhead. For the sake of time, we decided to take a shortcut down a snow-filled ravine. As I reached a point of being fully committed, I watched as ice and snow skittered down the slope—crashing onto jagged rocks below. My ice axe dug in well, but that did not stop it from periodically jumping an inch or two down the steep slope. Between the altitude and the situation I had put myself in, my heart was ready to jump straight from my chest. I used my heels to kick a set of steps into the snow so I could relax my grip on the axe and take a moment to develop a plan. Realizing we had taken a wrong turn, and the snow conditions were not conducive for glacading, my partner and I discussed other options. There, unfortunately, were not many aside from going down where we were. We had to deal with this set of circumstances.
Finding ourselves at extremis was the result of a couple things:
1. Trying to outrun impending weather, and choosing a route different than we planned.
2. Not discussing the risks we were comfortable taking.
3. Doing little to control the risk to which we were exposed.
My friend slid around me and went for the glacade; stopping just short of the rocks and laughed one of those "I'm happy I survived that intact" laughs. Luckily, we both made it down unscathed. At the bottom of the two-hundred-foot snow slide, we gave each other a hug and agreed that was far riskier than we predicted.
Of course, risk, and the challenge it presents is what draws many of us to adventure in the first place. So the question is: how do we balance security and risk when we are seeking the growth that risk often facilitates? Risk-oriented groups like the military and elite search and rescue teams teach Operational Risk Management (ORM) as a process to analyze and mitigate risk. Most on the fly decisions do not require the entire process, but those heavy, deliberate decisions are best made with some version of the ORM model:
1. Identify Hazards- weather, group fitness, group fatigue, skill, mindset, etc.
2. Assess Risks- What can go wrong, how wrong can it go, and who will be affected?
3. Analyze Controls- What skills, tools, or alternatives exist to mitigate or eliminate risk?
4. Make Decisions- A decision has to be made, and everyone needs to be onboard.
5. Implement Risk Controls- Make a plan to implement controls discussed in step three.
6. Monitor the Situation- Is the situation developing according to plan? Stopping to reevaluate can be a necessary reality.
Keep in mind that the risk you as an individual or a group identify is largely reliant on the experience, fitness, and equipment your group possesses. Risk mitigation begins long before you ever leave home on an adventure. Having the proper equipment is a great place to start. With no less significance are physical fitness and technical skills. Addressing these three factors alone can significantly lessen the amount of risk you have to consider when on an adventure.
In the anecdote I provided earlier, we should have taken a moment to plan out what we were doing. Is there a chance that we would have still taken the same course of action? Absolutely. To our credit, we were not far outside of our capabilities. We had taken many pre-adventure steps in fitness, equipment, and skill to lower the amount of risk we would have been exposed to otherwise.
I find the most difficult part of the ORM process for groups, and myself to follow is step six. It is incredibly easy to fall into the trap of "we are following the plan that we planned so the plan has to work." Wrong. Risk variables change continually with time. Having the ability to take a moment to reevaluate your situation as it develops demonstrates risk management maturity.
Taking chance and accepting risk in adventuring is perfectly okay as long as you are taking adequate steps to mitigate that risk. Being a good risk manager takes practice. With time, you develop a better understanding of what you like, what scares you, and how to keep yourself within those boundaries. Doing so ensures an adventure, that everyone can happily reminisce about later.

On the 30th of November 2013, two days before my birthday, I lived the rare experience of getting photographed in a professional studio by portrait and fashion photographer Werner Himmelbauer. Honestly, I feel much more comfortable behind the camera, focused on details and controlling
my work, but this time I went for the spotlight. Werner had lots of patience with me, I made him crazy, I was very crisp and "scared" by the fact that I was in front of the camera.
The great thing is, that I like the result and I will use the photos on my website, official Facebook profile and here on the blog to replace the existing portraits.
Thank you Werner, Kamila & Julia!

Aftonbladhet kan verkligen ge gemene man gåshud. Det finns egentligen ingenting så flagrant som att stå utanför soprummet till Aftonbladhet. Det slängs nämligen ett stort antal returer. Hundratusentals olästa tidningar. Lika bra det. Vem vill läsa detta bladder?
Svenska Dagbladhet ger inte direkt gåshud utan det liknar mer grodskinn som man är tvungen att fila bort. Svenska Dagbladhet finns i alla hem. Nej! Nej! Nej! Nu ljuger du igen. Svenska Dagbladet finns inte i alla hem. Sant som det är skrivet!
Sökmotoroptimeringstävling ger varken det ena eller det andra. Här blir man neutraliserad på ett fat. Ja kanske det. Det finns inte så mycket att orda om i detta fall av malaria.
Expressn nämner jag inte i detta sammanhang. Jo, en liten notis kan den få. Nej, jag ångrade mig.
Internetvärd och sammanhanget runt individpostens förfarande är som att gå på dålig teater. Finns det dåliga teatrar? Ja, massor av urusla teatrar och teaterproduktioner. De skyller oftast på för lite anslag och medel. Medel av vad då? Sömnmedel kanske!
Det här var lite lattjo text som jag hade till mina tävlingssidor. När jag läser detta nu kan jag känna ett litet uns av pinsamhet komma krypande innanför västen.

Old history
The nigritude ultramarine competition by SearchGuild is widely acclaimed as the mother of all SEO contests. It was started on May 7, 2004 and was won two months later by Anil Dash.
On September 1 of the same year, webmasters were challenged to rank #1 on Google in three months time for the search phrase seraphim proudleduck.
In the first quarter of 2005, people were competing for the term loquine glupe, spawning web sites ranging from shampoo advertising to holiday resorts. The page that won in the end looked rather boring, and used lots of questionable techniques like "keyword stuffing".
Internationally, in 2005 two major contests took place in Europe. In Germany the Hommingberger Gepardenforelle by the computer magazine c't spawned almost 4 million results. The goal was to find out how search engines rank sites. In Poland almost at same time the Polish SEO community organized the msnbetter thangoogle contest. It topped the 4 million but failed to reach its goal to promote SEO in Poland and to get search engines companies attention for the Polish market. Currently at least one contest is taking place in France.
A competition ran from January 1, 2006 to March 1, 2006 and carried the term redscowl bluesingsky, another set of made-up words. It was sponsored by SEOLogs. Shoemoney won this contest, and since he donated the winner's money, he donated it to the number 2 winner.
A contest that had been announced earlier - but only started on January 15, 2006 - is the one by V7N SEO forum administrator John Scott and another search engine optimizer, WebGuerrilla. In this particular contest, both competitions use the same search phrase v7ndotcom elursrebmem, but each has its own set of special rules.
The basics
All these contests appear to be based on a number of common factors:
In simple words, a SEO contest invites webmasters to trick the search engines. Some webmasters resort to spam, while others use white-hat optimization techniques (like providing good content covering the competition, or optimizing page titles).
While there are many search engines around, they all seem to focus on Google in particular. Google is known to be a difficult search engine to rank well on, especially for new web sites.
Most SEO contests expect people to optimize a single web page for a non-existent phrase of two silly words. The main reason for this is to keep existing web sites from getting a head start. But at the same time it makes sure that regular internet searchers won't be bombarded with "spammy" results when searching the web for "regular" information.
Blogs seem to do well at these challenges, indicating in a way that pages with valuable content are preferred by search engines over regular websites, especially when it comes to newsworthy and fresh information of a temporary nature.
The differences
Certain special rules and limitations are invented to set contest apart from the rest. Often, these limitations will make it harder to benefit from the ranking algorithm - including quirks - of the targeted search engine. For example, the January 2006 Redscowl Bluesingsky contest issued by SEOLogs is open for new domains only. That means that the contestants cannot benefit from the ranking advantage old web sites are thought to have over new ones. An example of that is the age advantage Anil Dash' blog page had over the well-received but brand new Nigritude Ultramarine FAQ - respectively ended 1st and 6th in the Nigritude Ultramarine challenge. Most likely, the Redscowl Bluesingsky game will be won by a domain of the style which is bound to attract natural links, and benefit from the fact that the URL is made up entirely of the search words.
Another special rule that fits well with the 'purpose' of SEO contests today is the obligation to 'link back' to the organizing body - often a search engine optimization blog or forum. Since a web document's ranking on major search engines like Yahoo!, Google or MSN Search is mainly determined by internet hyperlinks pointing to that document, forcing webmasters to link to a web site is quite a powerful way to increase its web presence... Good example are the contest announced by V7N and its counterpart by WebGuerrilla. While the first of these originally required the contestants to link to V7N forums, the second forbids its players to do just that. Instead a special link to Google engineer Matt Cutts' blog is imperative. Because of this rivalry, both the rules and prize money on both these SEO contests were updated regularly up until the official start date of January 15, 2006.
By Trey Pennewell (c) 2006 Links And Traffíc
If you are an experienced webmaster then you probably know that creating back links to your website is one of the best things that you can do to improve your Search Engine Ranking Placement (SERP). Google openly discusses the importance that their algorithms place on back links and even recommend that webmasters who want to increase their traffíc use back links. Both Yahoo! and MSN are starting to talk openly about the importance of back links in their search algorithms as well.
There are a number of strategies that you can use to create back links to your website. Some of these strategies include emailing webmasters and asking them to place a link to your website, submitting your site to directories, distributing free reprint articles, and paying for links. All of these have their pros and cons, and some have a better success ratio than others.

Hello, we have about 26 surveys set-up and the URL for each is on 26 different tablets in our health centers for patients to complete at check-out. We went in to each survey, for the new year, and changed the questions but it is throwing off reporting for surveys completed before this change. Is there a way to get the report from before the surveys were changed so that we can store the results and start anew?
- JotForm SupportEltonCrisAnswered on February 01, 2018 at 01:10 PM
Yes, you can download the submissions to Excel or CSV. This is basically what we recommend before you make changes to your form since deleting a field would also delete its associated data. So before doing it, backup/download the submissions data of your form first.
If you have more questions, let us know.

Swaziland Optionals
1. Nyonyane
Nyonyane Mountain has an exposed granite peak known as the "Rock of Execution". Nyonyane is where ancient San people once lived and where Swazi royal graves are situated. The mountain has historical significance and all visitors will be delighted by the mountaineering opportunities. The climb will definitely be worth your while because the view will make you dizzy with its natural beauty and impressive height!
2. Horse Riding
The Kingdom of Swaziland's Big Game Parks brings you an exciting mixture of wildlife, adventure and culture whilst comfortably snuggled in your saddle. A fascinating combination of experience, habitats and scenery is what makes these trails so remarkable. Join us and let us take you where eagles fly!
3. Mountain Biking
Mountain biking in Mlilwane is a popular activity. Mountain bikes can be hired on an hourly basis accompanied by a Swazi field guide. Guests with private bikes may cycle without a guide, sticking strictly to the trails and roads (at no additional fee).
Mlilwane's mountain biking can be a gentle hourly ride along the plains, or a 3-4 hour mountain bike trail taking you into some of the most beautiful mountains of Swaziland.
4. Cultural Tour: Umphakatsi Chief's Homestead Visit
The Umphakatsi Chief's Homestead visit is a hands-on interactive experience of the neighbouring local lady chief, Inkhosikati, in her homestead – a very real glimpse of Swaziland's culture that will leave you with a newfound respect and basic understanding of the Swazi way of life.
Your guide, who will hand the ladies in your party traditional Swazi cloths (Emahiya) to wrap around their waists, greets you at the main gate, from where the homestead is a short drive and little further walk.
Before entering the Inkhosikati's homestead (Liguma), you are requested to remove your shoes. On entry, the Inkhosikati and the village children, often wearing traditional clothing, will warmly welcome you. The standard Swazi greeting to the Inkhosikati is "Yebo Nkosi".
The Inkhosikati has a vibrant, energetic and infectious mannerism and talks you through how the huts and traditional items are made and teaches you the Siswati words for them. The Inkhosikati encourages interaction; so ladies, try your hand at grinding maize and plaiting mountain grass.
Gents, join the children in Swazi song and dance. An offering of a taste of local food and sometimes brew is made, but forget about your cutlery and try it the Swazi way… with your hands! This experience is both informative and memorable – a taste of true Swazi hospitality – and should not be missed!

Having longed for a Biblical Army for several years, it is rewarding to see that quest realized. The next step is to get the collection into action on the gaming table.
Arrayed out on the table, the Assyrians provide an inviting spectacle. As mentioned in an earlier post, nearly four feet of chariots make up the battle line. Even given the current state of the project, many figures remain in The Lead Pile from which to draw more potential units. Yes, I likely over bought but restraint is difficult.
While this post provides a grand overview of the units thus far in the collection, the header bar now carries a 25mm Assyrian Wars Gallery so that the individual units can be viewed. Units will be added into the gallery as they are completed. Perhaps a 2018 goal should be to build (up-to-date) galleries for some of my other collections? Getting the 28mm Napoleonic Peninsular War project into a separate gallery would be a good start.

In a welcome turn of events, the Toronto Police Service announced in a press conference on Aug. 24 that it is leading a global investigation into the hack of infidelity Website Ashley Madison. During the press conference, Avid Life Media (AVM), the owner and operator of the Ashley Madison site, offered a $500,000 reward for information leading to the identification, arrest and prosecution of those responsible for the Ashley Madison database leak.
The hack of the Ashley Madison site was first disclosed in July, with the attackers, who identified themselves as "The Impact Team," threatening to dump the database, which is what occurred on Aug. 19. While the breach at Ashley Madison has exposed more than 30 million individuals that were members of the site to public scrutiny, it's important to remember that a crime occurred and AVM is the victim—which is where the Toronto Police Service comes into play.
Although the Ashley Madison Website has members around the world, AVM is based in Toronto. While the Ashley Madison hack has global implications, at its core, it represents a breaking and entering into a Toronto organization. Toronto Police noted during their press conference that they are working with law-enforcement agencies around the world, including the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, to identify the criminals.
It is somewhat curious on the surface that the Toronto Police force is taking the lead on a global cyber-crime affecting more people than the entire population of Canada as a whole. Toronto has a population of nearly 3 million, Canada has a population of 35 million, and Ashley Madison's client database is approximately 37 million.
Further reading
When Target was breached in 2013, Minneapolis police didn't lead the investigation, and Atlanta police didn't lead the investigation into the breach of Home Depot in 2014. In both those cases (and many others like it), the FBI was brought in to lead the investigation and not the local police force where the breached company is headquartered. In Canada, there isn't an equivalent agency to the FBI, though there are the equivalent of state police (in the Toronto area that would be the Ontario Provincial Police) and, at the federal level, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).
The RCMP are quite active in the realm of cyber-security and are the only police force in the world that arrested someone in connection with attacks related to the Heartbleed vulnerability in 2014. In that case, the attacker went after the Canada Revenue Agency, which is the Canadian equivalent to the Internal Revenue Service.
So why is a local police force leading the charge here? Simply put, the Toronto Police Service has taken an active role in cyber-crime investigations for more than a decade. Back in 2005, Toronto Police collaborated with Microsoft to help build a system to track and identify child pornographers around the world. While a local police force might not seem to be ideally suited to investigate a hack like the breach of Ashley Madison, Toronto is where the victim—AVM—is located, and therefore, Toronto is the jurisdiction where the crime investigation will now be led.
It also helps that AVM actually contacted the Toronto Police Service. During the press conference, it was revealed that AVM went to the Toronto Police eight days after the initial hack disclosure.

Eduardo Braga uses interview to attack Amazonino, Melo e OmarAmazonino was called irresponsible for his actions in the public security sector 2003 when he was governor of the State.
Senator Eduardo Braga (PMDB) in an interview with the Squares Portal went on the attack, against former governors Amazonino Mendes (PDT), Jose Melo (Pros) e o senador Omar Aziz (PSD). However the order of the agenda was to talk about the candidate's proposals for public security.
In PMDB speech, Amazonino was called irresponsible for his actions in the public security sector 2003 when he was governor of the State. "I think it's irresponsible and you dismount the command structure of the police thinking that this is solution for public safety. He ended the civil police", pinned Braga.
The use of constant attack your opponent shows that Amazonino is the opponent that most concerns the senator in this by-election for governor of Amazonas.

Tuesday, 17 December 2013
It's been two months since I last wrote. A lot can happen in short spaces of time, and this short space of time is no exception.
A month ago, we said goodbye to Martin's parents at Christchurch airport after an amazing three weeks of travelling, introducing them to our friends and eating LOTS of good food. A year on from the same experience with my brother, I am left on the wrong side of the departure gate feeling a very familiar set of unwelcome emotions.
Should I be going home too? Did we make the most of the short time we had together? Did they enjoy themselves? WILL THEY COME BACK???
The hardest part about having visitors after nearly two years of getting used to being by ourselves is coming back to an empty house. The quiet was unbearable. I suddenly realised how our parents and family members must have felt upon returning home after saying goodbye to us at Manchester airport all that time ago. On the other side of the departure gate towards New Zealand, I too was inconsolable, but it is definitely harder being the one left behind.
So you try and fill that hole with being busy, not stopping to reflect or dwell and generally carrying on with your life as if nothing has changed. After two weeks of this, however, it becomes impossible to ignore how you are feeling and you decide to face your doubts.
This Saturday, Martin and I made ourselves slow down. We took a walk through our old neighbourhood - which has become a haven for (legal) street art - had brunch somewhere we've never been before and made peace with ourselves.
We are presently standing at a fork in the road. In January, we will have lived in New Zealand for two years and will therefore be eligible for residency. However, we don't know how much longer we want to be here. Do we: a) not apply and wait until our work visas expire in June and be faced with the prospect of returning to a country in a not too dissimilar economic state than it was when we left, or b) apply for residency on the basis we know we want to be here until at least this time next year and just see what happens?
When we made the decision to move to the other side of the world, we did so on the proviso that we didn't want to regret the things we didn't do in life. We gave it a go and, thankfully, it worked. In my head, I know NZ is the right choice: a more healthy pace of life, better job prospects, more comfortable living arrangements...the list goes on. But (and this is a big 'but'), my heart essentially is wherever my Ma & Pa are. Corny, but that's what it boils down to!
Currently, we are very excitedly planning a trip home in April/May next year, hopefully via Canada, Italy, Germany and Thailand. We hope this will satisfy our wandering hearts a little and be a great opportunity to make the most of spending time with much missed friends and family. When it gets tough here, I cherish the thought of how happy I will be to see my cat again (and try not to think about the angry face of the kiwi customs officer when they discover him in my hand luggage).
Meanwhile, when we want to feel close to home, there is a park down the road called Mona Vale in which you can find a very English looking lily-pond, fountain and an accompanying sense of tranquillity. At least until the birds start mistaking your ukulele playing for a call to arms, anyway.

(Davos) – Chief Executives from around the world met with UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon at a luncheon in Davos today to discuss the Blueprint for Corporate Sustainability Leadership (Blueprint), a roadmap to sustainability excellence first introduced by the UN Global Compact in 2010. The gathering aimed to further advance implementation of the Blueprint by business.
The luncheon was attended by over 70 leaders from business, the financial world, and academia, as well as several of the UN MDG Advocates, a group of prominent individuals who work actively with the UN in promoting achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. The luncheon was hosted by the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, the UN Global Compact, Fondation Guilé, KPMG and Novo Nordisk. It followed the launch of Global Compact LEAD, an new action platform launched by the Global Compact for companies committed to comprehensive and advanced sustainability performance (Read More).
The discussion centred on the challenges and opportunities of implementing the Blueprint and clarified the role that different actors can play in enhancing the impact of the Global Compact.
The Blueprint for Corporate Sustainability Leadership presents a comprehensive framework for action – including an action plan for how companies can more actively embrace and advance broad UN issues and goals. It was launched at the UN Global Compact Leaders Summit 2010 and has been widely embraced by business and non-business stakeholders.

Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) stock crashed by more than 19% after the company announced lower than expected subscriber growth in its earnings report last week. Netflix is a particularly volatile stock, and investors in the company should expect big price swings from time to time. However, the recent decline could easily create a buying opportunity for long term investors in Netflix stock.
A thriller
Netflix has been anything but boring over the last several years. The stock was trading in the neighborhood of $305 per share in July of 2011, only to collapse to less than $55 in July of 2012 after the company tried to make some unfortunate changes in its pricing and services, which infuriated a lot of of its customers to the point that many of them decided to cancel their subscriptions.
But management learned from that mistake. The company reversed its decision and repaired its relationship with customers over time. By 2013 Netflix was growing at full speed again, so the stock quickly exploded higher, making new historical highs above $489 per share in the first week of September of 2014.
After such an exponential rise over a relatively short period of time, expectations were certainly quite demanding for Netflix ahead of the latest earnings report. Unfortunately, the company failed to deliver subscriber growth, which is quite an important metric.
Netflix gained a total of 3.02 million new streaming members during the third quarter, below the company's own guidance of 3.69 million net additions for the period. Domestic growth was particularly weak, with only 0.98 million net new subscribers versus 1.33 million expected by the company. International net additions were 2.04 million, also below guidance of 2.36 billion.
Management attributed this slower than expected growth to the price increase that Netflix implemented in May, saying that the impact of the hike was offset for some time by the fact that the second season of Orange is the New Black was a big a attraction for new subscribers by late second quarter and early third quarter.
The good guys always win
It's important to keep in mind that the company still gained more than 3 million subscribers during the quarter; even if below guidance, this is an acceleration versus the 2.73 million subscribers Netflix gained in the third quarter of 2013. The total membership base stands at more than 53 million at the end of the third quarter, and management expects to add 4 million new members in the fourth quarter. When seen in perspective, Netflix is still growing at a considerable pace.
Revenues grew 27.5% to $1.4 billion during the quarter. While domestic streaming sales grew 25% year-over year, international streaming revenue jumped by an impressive 89% versus the same quarter in 2013. International revenue represents approximately 28% of total streaming sales, and this segment is likely to continue increasing its share of the overall sales mix as it outgrows the domestic business over the years ahead. Considering that Netflix still has enormous room for international expansion, the company is well positioned to continue delivering sustained growth in the long term.
Besides, Netflix is doing a great job at increasing profitability. Contribution margin in the U.S. came in at 28.6% during the quarter, a big increase versus 23.7% in the third quarter of 2013. Management believes the company is on track to achieving a contribution margin of 30% in the U.S. in the first or second quarter next year, and it intends to increase margins by 200 basis points per year after that.
Management also said in the earnings press release that markets launched more than a year ago are collectible profitable on a contribution basis, which shows that Netflix is clearly moving in the right direction when it comes to proving its ability to generate growing profitability over time. As Netflix matures in its different markets, sales growth will most likely slow down, but improved profit margins could be a big plus for investors.
In fact, earnings per share during the last quarter came in better than expected in spite of the disappointing subscriber growth. Netflix reported earnings per share of $0.96, while analysts were on average forecasting $0.93 per share, meaning that increasing profitability more than compensated for the shortfall in revenues during the quarter in terms of overall earnings per share.
Netflix versus Amazon and HBO
Competition is always a risk to watch in such a dynamic growth business, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has deeper pockets than Netflix, and it has built a big library, with more than 40,000 movies and TV shows available for streaming in its Amazon Prime Instant Video service.
In addition, Time Warner (NYSE:TWX.DL) recently announced that it will be offering a stand-alone HBO streaming service in 2015. Netflix has always identified HBO as its main competitor, so the latest move from Time Warner has most likely exacerbated investors' risk perception about Netflix.
However, there is no reason to believe that Netflix can't continue thriving in the face of growing competition. In the words of CEO Reed Hastings:
On the consumer side, it's one more channel. So already consumers subscribed to us and Hulu and Amazon and they do pay-per-view and they do DVD and they do cable. So there's so many great sources of entertainment. And consumers subscribe to many of these.
So there's not much of a change in the direct competitive landscape. We and HBO have completely different content. So I don't think it will be a significant impact at the consumer level.
At the end of the day, content is king, and Netflix is building competitive differentiation via a growing library of titles, including widely successful original productions such as House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black. As long as Netflix continues delivering valuable content for a competitively low price, increased competition in the industry is no reason to sell Netflix stock.
The bottom line
This is not the first time that the market has overreacted to negative news from Netflix, and it probably won't be the last one either. However, big declines in Netflix stock have been buying opportunities in the past, and chances are this last dip will turn out the same way.

I am working in an environment where we develop features in branches, using Subversion and TortoiseSVN. Every day we do a forward merge from the trunk to branch. When the feature is complete the branch is merged back to the trunk and the branch gets deleted. Recently I noticed a lot of whitespace issues, like wrong indentations. It turned out that the reason for this is one commonly misunderstood option in the merge dialog of TortoiseSVN: "Compare whitespaces"
The default settings of this dialog are the correct ones but many developers automatically click on one of the "Ignore whitespace" options. Why? Because they are using this option in their diff tools all the time. But what is good when comparing is actually a very bad thing when merging. Imagine that someone surrounds some existing code with an "if" or "try-catch" block. That would indent the existing code which is just a whitespace change. The new indentation will not be merged to the branch if you choose one of the ignore options! The same is true if you changed tabs to spaces or inserted some empty lines. And now comes the worst problem: You chose to ignore whitespaces on forward branches. But you didn't ignore them when merging back to the trunk. Now you actually have erased all whitespace changes from the trunk between the time you created the branch and the time you merged it back!
<Insert picture here>
So remember one thing: Always choose "Compare whitespaces" in the merge options!

Raven over Shadoxhurst - a first summer record
I've had so little time for birding all summer, but gained a little luck today with this splendid Raven circling high over the garden. I'd been trying to put a bit of shine into my 20 year old Citreon zx for most of the day, and looked-up to stretch my neck late in the afternoon to see this near pristine bird. This is my second record only for the village, the first being back in December 2010 in what was a very severe cold spell.

Feminism of the most absurd variety is big business for small bloggers. There are a group of women, mostly white, mostly college educated from middle class backgrounds that want to believe a narrative where they are the victims in a "patriarchal" system that is built for men. Being a victim eliminates all feelings of social responsibility or guilt. The problem with that, is as time marches on it becomes more and more difficult to prove the victimization of women in American society (and almost impossible in the UK and Canada). In comes the Microagression!
Microagressions are great to write about because they get the aforementioned professional victims, but also the people who disagree that such things are real. It's down to such a science even buzzfeed, the bottom feeding shit aggregator site is jumping in. Lets visit these buzzworthy "microagressions" shall we (Note, for some reason buzzfeed after publishing this changed it to micro misogyny which was even more ridiculous and why I chose to make fun of them as actually being "micro misandry".)
Bonus, from the comments (highlighted for your convenience):
Here's my advice. Next time you see something about "Microagressions" don't give them your clicks. Don't let the terrorists win.

What I wouldn't give at this moment to have a homegrown, vine-ripened tomato. I'd slice it up and make a sandwich; of thickly cut slices, lightly sprinkled with fleur de sel and coarsely ground Balinese pepper, then I'd add a thin layer of raw, sweet onion, and a few just plucked basil leaves, all sandwiched between warm slices of recently-out-of-the-oven baked milk bread, bread slathered with homemade Tuscan mayonnaise—mayonnaise created with the greenest of extra-virgin olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar! I am drooling with the image and deeply aching with the anticipation of it all.
I no longer live in a home with a large backyard, where I was once able to grow my very own vegetables, and most especially delighted in growing a wide variety of tomatoes, tomatoes kissed all day by the sun, ripened on the vine, made wholly luscious and sweet.
These days I live in an apartment, I therefore no longer have the perfect location for the heat intensity of a full day's worth of blazing sun, exactly what's needed for tomatoes to grow big, juicy, and delicious!
So after yearning for over three long years for homegrown tomatoes, my husband and I have put our heads together to device a way to grow them from our tiny, little balcony, a balcony that gets no sun of which to speak of. The sun we get is very, very limited—shining on only the edge of our balcony for a measly half hour in the early morning hours and about the same at the closing of day.
I couldn't even hope for a chance to suntan my face, let alone sunburn it!
So we enthusiastically plunged ahead with our idea. We eagerly drove to our local Home Depot and Orchard Supply stores and found all that we needed: plant-lights with fixtures and chain, and tomato plants—San Marzano, Husky Red, and a purple heirloom variety—already potted and fixed with cages. We wasted no time in setting the stage for making the dream of growing our very own tomatoes a reality.
We also brought home herbs, sage, rosemary, and sweet basil!
Now a number of plant lights dangle over our precious tomatoes, and herbs. And so we wait, with fingers and toes crossed, to see what will miraculously grow. And hopefully Mother Nature will be kind with the weather, because, though tomatoes are self-pollinating, they will still require just the right weather conditions for the flowers to hang on and later scatter their pollen; hence the fruit, the tomatoes, the bounty for a harvest, my vine-ripened tomato sandwich.
I will also give my tomato plants lots of love! They gotta have love, after all!
We dream a life to be; we live to dream that life! (vka)

Korean Exhibition <Paper, Present: A Gift for You>
Location: Daelim museum – 21, Jahamun-ro 4-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea
Time: Tue-Sun 10:00 ~ 18:00 | Thu / Sat 10:00 ~ 20:00
※ close on Mondays
We are looking for a lot of information to introduce good content. The content to be introduced today is Daelim Museum's "Paper, Present". Daelim Museum is a place where famous exhibitions are frequent.
About the exhibition
Time to meet the beauty of paper with art.
From December 7, 2017, to May 27, 2018, Daelim Museum will present an exhibition featuring delicate sensations of artists from around the world and the process of expanding paper, an analogical material, into an emotional medium. <Paper, Present> We hold. In this exhibition, artists from 10 teams who are active in various fields, focus on the original properties of paper in their respective fields, introducing works that show the pure beauty of the material itself.
This exhibition consists of seven spaces. This space is based on the wondrous scenes of nature, the moment when ordinary everyday life comes unfamiliar, once in a lifetime and memories. In each space, you can see the writings of the writer 'OhBam Lee Jeonghyeon(오밤 이정현)'. This phrase will comfort your mind.
First, you can see the work of "Richard Sweeney" in the paper art called Gaudí. The characteristic of this work is that it uses material properties without using a machine to create a free form from object to architectural structure. You can see large and small pieces of paper reminiscent of a starlight sparkling in a serene dawn.
Second, it is the work of "Tahiti Pehrson" famous for hand cutting. This work contains sunshine that shines brightly.
Third, the design studio "Atelier oi" used various elements such as light, color, and movement to capture the senses of the East and the West. It is a work that made you feel the calm wind.
The fourth space is composed of "Studio Job", "TORAFU ARCHITECTS", "Tord Boontje" and "Jule Waibel". This space is composed of paper, other materials, and products and furniture, creating a scene in which paper permeates into everyday scenery.
Fifth, the French designer "Jim&Jou" has been responsible for the visuals of the intense show-window of luxury brands such as Hermes.
Sixth, you can see the work of the design studio "Wanda Barcelona", which is responsible for show-window and showrooms of famous brands such as Dior, COMME des GARÇONS, and Colette. This space expresses a glorious fairytale world with paper.
Finally, the Korean design group "Maum Studio", which attracts attention with its young senses, creates a walkway full of pink light paper reeds, giving the audience a pleasure.
White paper symbolizes infinite possibilities. Paper has been the starting point of creation in a wide range of fields, from simple media to ideas for artists. <Paper, Present: A Gift for You> presents an extraordinary time to meet the arts by putting emotion on paper. This exhibition will give you a variety of experiences on paper and make you feel old feelings. Elements of emotion such as natural elements such as wind, starlight, sunlight, memory, and irritability are combined with space.
Exhibition Features
Richard Sweeney
This exhibition is a set of 8 small paper pieces and large installation works made by folding pure white paper with various techniques. It shines in the dark like a starry dawn light, revealing the graceful aspect of the paper.
Tahiti Pehrson
As part of the work, the "Tahiti Pehrson" penetrate finely cut white paper and show lightness and heaviness at the same time as light and shadows pouring like sunshine.
Atelier oi
This work expressed the wind that awakened the stopping time. Atelier Oi's work was expressed using light and shadows that penetrated paper.
TORAFU ARCHITECTS | Studio Job | Jule Waibel | Tord Boontje
The quirky paper works of four artists working in various fields such as furniture, lighting, fashion, and product design give the pleasure of discovering incredible scenes hidden in familiar landscapes.
TORAFU ARCHITECTS: Architectural design office to show experimental and sensible work to overturn stereotypes.
Studio Job: Duo designer breaks the boundaries between art and commercial design.
Jule Waibel: The designer who completes a sensuous work with origami.
Tord Boontje: Product design with elegant and delicate beauty.
"JIM & JOU" is a work by hand of all processes based on the deep interest in Nostalgic and handcrafted production processes for analog culture. These colorful works offer fairy-tale scenes that look beyond the street's window.
Wanda Barcelona
It consists of 4000 paper blossoms and 4000 Swarovski crystals. The installation that implements the ultra-realistic garden creates a gradation effect from the colorful color to the thinner white color, and quickly permeates the paper petals. It will make you feel excited.
Maum Studio
The reeds of paper of the pink which are piled up in plural order are reflected around the mirror everywhere. The endless unfolding of the walkway creates a fairy-tale landscape with the added light of the ceiling. It gives you the opportunity to recall past memories or create new memories.

{The Journey Is The Start aNNie my personal blog}
Somehow it doesn't quite feel like the weekend, but that photo you added to your journal page is wonderful. Bleubeard would certainly approve if he was awake. He's the art critic of the group, and would definitely find humor in Skol, vacancies, and the scruffy brush you used to create the texture and the brush effects.ReplyDelete
I looked and looked and scrolled and scrolled, but other than the added beer bottles and caps, I don't see any new bottle caps attached to the tree. I see you kept your feet out of the photo, too, but that may have been because they were wet (grin). Hope your weekend is going well.
Great architectural page! Those red bottles are new in the bottle cap art I think. Enjoyed your photos today with the October skies.ReplyDelete
Nice page. I love the photo and the way your blended it in with the background. Did you take it? Nice photos too, especially like the sun through the leaves! You did have a beautiful day!ReplyDelete
Another lovely post with lots of eye candy ♥ I've been absent all week due to work being done on the house and everything all disconnected and shoved in other areas. The work for this year is done and things are making their way back to their proper places so I should be around more soon :) I've been missing everyone ♥ReplyDelete
I really like that photo alot - so intersting but I don't think I could take one of the vacancies!!!! Love the way you blended it in to the page Valerie. Neat piece. No - I can't figure how the bottle caps have changed - unless it's the bottles - eheheheh! Wonder if you need to be drinking to do bottle cap art !!!?? Love that feather picture - that is incredible. Really fabulous. And dear me - you got your shadow head and your real feet in the water.... bottoms up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! j.ReplyDeleteReplies
Well, I think the people who sit there in the evening probably drink to keep warm! But I like watching the progress of the bottle top story!Delete
Such an interesting photograph from London, making the page so unique. And Yes, I do think buildings speak for themselves. Enjoying watching the progress of the bottle top work - someone is having fun. I think your shadow is very brave to put her head that far into the water! Nice photos, Valerie. Hope you are having a wonderful day. hugs, DonnaReplyDelete
Cool vintage art page.ReplyDelete
yes, the crows have a wonderful viewReplyDelete
looks like you have beautiful rocks on the beach, i might look down more than up.
and a lovely moon. so much beauty.
the cat in the art is an eye catcher.
I love your photography! The shadow figure is terrific.ReplyDelete
What wonderful art and such gorgeous photographs, I love the light shining through the leaves...ReplyDelete
Beautiful photos, beautiful moon!ReplyDelete
Super words on todays fantastic page, love the photos and the shadows.ReplyDelete

It is late, Valerie. I had trouble with bloglovin this morning. The program wouldn't load so I saved this treat until now. Love the page you created with the London scene and I am fond of cats so that was a fun addition. I also liked the scratched wood effect around the edges. You are way too clever when it comes to painting. It appears locals finished off a few beers last night near the river. Sorry you got your feet wet just for our benefit and the shadow photos are always fun to view. Hope your weekend is going well.ReplyDelete
Hugs for you,
Such a true statement on architecture Valerie!! The cat makes this picture just purrfect! xoReplyDelete
Cool artwork today with a fabulous quote!ReplyDelete
My favourite photo today, I looked at for ages - was the one with your shadow on the stones.
It was like seeing faces and picture in clouds, but I was seeing them in the shadows and stones. Just above the large stone toward bottom of photo, I could see a crab/lobster looking monster :)
.......... Gill xReplies
Perhaps it was the monster that made me tread in the water!Delete
Superb photo of the shop entrance with the adverts and the star of the show, the cool cat. That's very effective how you have painted a frame.ReplyDelete
What a marvellous still life photo, it may have been already there but it was your eyes that caught and framed it.
Wow, diese Seite sieht superstark aus! Du hast das Foto mit deiner Übermalung noch viel schöner werden lassen. Ich mag auch die Farbgebung sehr!ReplyDelete
... und welch intensive Farben auf den Fotos, ein Augenschmaus!
Auch dein Portrait von heute ist klasse - Häuser als Augenbrauen!
Lieben Gruß von Ulrike, die eben Cranach persönlich begegnen durfte
That building sure does. Saw the kitty hidden there. Bottle cap love!!! xoxReplyDelete
