Gold Digger will most definetly not be appearing over here.
Stronger. Gold Digger. Heartless. All number 1's, all are some of the biggest hits of the last 15 years.
Kanye has achieved a level of consistent commercial and critical success that most artists could only dream of. All of his 8 solo albums have reached number 1 in the USA. 3 of those albums have been declared as some of the 500 greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone. It's clear that (for the most part), the fans and the critics alike have loved his musical output.
So many of his singles have had immense commercial success. Of course, there are lesser known ones that end up being critical darlings. Songs like Devil in a New Dress, Blood on the Leaves or Last Call.
However, in between the commercial and critical success lies a space where the underrated songs exist. They're Kanye songs so of course millions of people have heard them, but they haven't penetrated the charts like his most successful ones. The critics acknowledge their existence, but they're rarely talked about outside the circles of dedicated Kanye fans.
These are some of the Kanye West songs that definitely deserve some more attention, whether you're a die hard fan or a casual listener.

Kevin Madden Obituary (1953 - 2020) - Sun Chronicle
MADDEN, Kevin Hardy passed away November 5, 2020 after a lengthy battle with multiple illnesses. He leaves behind his wife Michele Babayan of Wareham, MA, son Drew D. Madden of Holliston, MA, and daughter Emma N. Madden of West Roxbury, MA. He was the son of the late William "Red" and Laura (Potter) Madden.
Born on April 10, 1953 in Portland, ME, he was raised in Attleboro, MA on Claflin Street. A proud Bombardier, he excelled both in the classroom and on the field at Attleboro High School. After initially attending the Air Force Academy, an injury led him to finish his undergraduate studies in computer science with an electrical engineering degree at the Lowell Technological Institute (now UMass Lowell). He went on to receive an MBA from Babson College. He worked at the intersection of software and marketing for multiple companies throughout his career, retiring in 2015 after 15 years with Johnson & Johnson.
Most recently he resided in Quincy, MA before retiring to Wareham, MA. He was an avid outdoorsman who loved to spend time on the water with a fishing rod in hand. Another passion was following Boston sports teams, especially the Patriots and Red Sox. He was known to never miss a meal and enjoyed spending time in the kitchen.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the William E. "Red" Madden Memorial Scholarship Fund, c/o the Attleboro Scholarship Foundation, Box 1666, Attleboro, MA 02703.
Published in Sun Chronicle on Nov. 10, 2020.
One of the good guys I remember from Attleboro High School. May you have a warm breeze on your back and calm seas ahead.
Kevin was the son of my dad's best friend Bill Madden. I will always remember the unusual way he laughed. He was a frequent guest at my dad's backyard cookouts. We went fishing with our fathers out in Buzzards Bay and spent time at his parent's house on Claflin Street in Attleboro MA. My sincere condolences to Kevin's family.
My condolences to the Madden family. I always enjoyed working with Kevin at J&J, and kept in touch via Facebook after we both left employment there. Hope the fishing is good in heaven. Bill Christianson
I knew Kevin for many years from his begging's at J&J in Raynham and always enjoyed his candor and dry wit. Kevin always treated me with respect. He was a very good man and "May you Rest in Eternal Peace", Kevin and always get on the fish first.
Gordon L MacPherson
My condolences to the Madden family. I worked with Kevin for many years and he never turned down a challenge. He pulled me out of a fire many, many times! Brilliant man. Nothing like the smile that came across his face when he talked about his family! Especially his children. Rest in Peace.
This picture is how I would like to remember him, smiling on the water. I knew Kevin as a co-worker, a mentor, a father, husband, a son, a fisherman, a boating enthusiast, a cook, an avid tinkerer, a diy'er, an antique picker, a collector, on this day (Nov. 11) - a veteran, but nothing compares more than...a friend. He was, and his memory is of, a true good soul, and never stopped giving to those around him. We are grateful for being in his life, and better for it. We are deeply saddened by his passing, and our lives will be just a bit more empty without him. His catch phrases of "that'll work..." or "sounds like a plan..." will forever live on. I wish I had time to say goodbye, but I know that he is watching us, and at peace. My love and condolences to the family.
My deepest condolences to the Madden family. Kevin wasn't only a great friend, but also a great team mate. To know Kevin was to love him, he will be deeply missed
Omg Kevin I can't believe I am reading this. We had so much fun as a kid. Your parents were friends with the O'Briens and I lived next door. Boy did we raise some h... . My you RIP and see our old friends again.

It's All About Measuring - The Place for Cakes
It's all about measuring when it comes to baking a cake. When prepping and mixing ingredients, precision is key to the success of the caking baking experience. Measuring is so critical that using the wrong amount of flour, for example, can cause the cake to fall flat, causing major frustration to the baker. First, you must measure the ingredient with the right tool. Liquids should be measured with a clear cup set on a flat, level surface and seen at eye level. For dry ingredients and solids such as flour or sugar, or shortening, use long handled metal or plastic cups.
When a recipe calls for "firmly packed" brown sugar, it should look compact. After it goes in the measuring cup, tap lightly with your fingertips so it is level with the top of the measuring cup. And, don't be tempted to substitute with granulated brown sugar. This will have a different consistency.
Sifting incorporates air into flour which makes a fine textured cake. A tip to make it easier is to sift the flour onto a piece of parchment paper to avoid the messy process of pouring the dry ingredient from one bowl to another. Put a couple of drops of water on the counter and place the parchment over it to keep the parchment from sliding on the counter. Then sift the flour in a fine mesh strainer onto the parchment. Simply fold the parchment and let the flour slide into the mixing bowl.
Leveling a Measuring Cup
For an accurate measure, level a heaping cup of flour with a straightedge tool, such as an offset spatula. Don't shake or tap the flour because this will cause it to become compressed and you will use too much flour.
Determining Mold Capacity
You may have certain cake molds that go unused because you do not know the capacity of the mold. In this case, simply fill the mold with water and then pour the water into a liquid measuring cup. Write the amount with a permanent marker on the bottom of the mold for easy reference.

Full-fat, mature cheese made from whole, unpasteurized cow’s milk. The milk used for producing the protected cheeses comes from cows of the Asturiana de la Montaña o Casina, Asturiana de los Valles and Frisona breeds and crosses between them. The cheese is made by enzymatic coagulation and the semi-hard or hard paste is kneaded.
The geographical production area is in the south of Asturias, specifically in the mid-east, bordering the Redes Nature Park and its surrounding area. The municipalities in this geographical area are: Caso, Sobrescobio and Piloña.
The area includes the basins of the Alto Nalón River and its tributaries, which fix the geographical spread of the Queso Casín Protected Designation of Origin. To the south it is bordered by the province of León (Castile-Leon), to the west by the municipalities of Aller and Laviana, to the east by those of Nava, Ponga and Parres, and to the north by those of Villaviciosa and Colunga.
Casín cheese is made from whole, unpasteurized cow’s milk. The cows are fed a diet based on the natural resources of the local area, grazing on pasture practically all year round, supplemented by hay and fresh fodder from the producer’s own farm. The cheese is made by the enzymatic coagulation of milk, triggered by using animal-based rennet or coagulant as well as fermenting agents and calcium chloride in the exact dose required for achieving the curd in the curdling vat. The process is carried out at a temperature of 30-35ºC / 86-95ºF for about 45 minutes, after which the curd is cut with curd knives. The temperature is raised about 2ºC / 35.6ºF and simultaneously, the curds are stirred for at least ten minutes until they form grains the size of hazelnuts. They are then left to rest for another ten minutes at least.
The curds are then left to drain in cloths or drainers (plastic containers with holes) for several hours to allow the serum to run off. The process continues in the airing room, where the curds are left on cloths at a temperature of 15-20ºC / 59-68ºF for three days or more. They are turned every day until all the serum has drained away. Lactic fermentation also takes place at this time.
Next, the kneading process begins and part of the salt is added. To achieve greater uniformity, the paste is kneaded several times in a machine consisting of two motor-driven rollers that turn in opposite directions. Salt is added during some of the kneading cycles. The cheese is shaped by hand by forming the curds (known as gorollos) into a cut-off pyramid and is then stored in an airing chamber for a period of between five days and two weeks at 15-20ºC / 59-68ºF. The cheese is turned every day. The ‘gorollos’ can be kneaded in the machine as many times as required for achieving the desired texture for each producer. The more kneading cycles the cheese undergoes the smoother and more uniform it will be, it will cure better and have a stronger flavor.
The cheese is finally given either a cylinder-discoid or cake shape (the latter is achieved by first making a ball and then flattening each side until it takes on the desired appearance) and the top side is marked with a seal or stamp with the producer’s logo. The cheese then returns to the airing chamber for at least two days. The marcu Casín stamp not only identifies the cheese but also enhances its appearance and occupies the entire visible side of the cheese.
The curing or ripening process is completed in the ripening chamber at a temperature of between 8-10ºC / 46.4-50ºF at 80% humidity. The ripening process starts at the moment in which the curds are produced and should last at least two months, counting from the date on which they were made. During this period, the cheese is turned and cleaned as required to acquire its distinctive features. During the ripening process, a series of physical and chemical changes occur, giving the cheese its final organoleptic properties.
The paste is firm, semi-hard to hard, a yellowish color, with no eyes, although it may have small cracks. It is crumbly when cut and has a buttery texture on the palate. It has a homogenous and plastic consistency, with a strong, powerful aroma. The cheese is a dark creamy yellow color with whitish shades. Each producer’s own seal is stamped with a die into the top of the cheese.
The flavor depends on the production process, especially on the number of times it is kneaded in the kneading machine: if kneaded heavily, it has a bitter, spicy, strong flavor, an acquired taste for palates unused to it, and with the penetrating, rustic aroma of butter seasoned by time. If the cheese has been kneaded less heavily, the flavor is the same, although less intense. In all cases, it has a strong, full-bodied, persistent, spicy flavor, slightly bitter at the back of the mouth, with a strong aftertaste.
It is an irregular discoid-cylindrical shape, with one side bearing floral or geometrical markings and the producer’s symbol or name. The cheese can range from 10 to 20 cm / 3.9-7.8 inches in diameter and from 4 to 7 cm / 1.5-2.7 inches in height, weighing between 250 and 1,000 g / 8.8 oz – 2.2 lb.
The rind is virtually non-existent since, after repeated kneading, the cheese matures uniformly and at the same rate inside and out. Its exterior and interior form a compact, bound mass, which is clean, dry or slightly oily.

Blackstone originally tried to sell the asset last year but pulled the deal from the market and subsequently refinanced it in May this year with a fresh £400 million senior loan by Deutsche Bank and a £200 million mezzanine loan provided by Apollo Global Management on behalf of a separate account mandate with Qatar Investment Authority (QIA).
Chiswick Park is a large business park set on 33 acres and provides more than 1.8 million square feet of office and mixed use such as retail and leisure facilities. When it was bought by Blackstone there was around 100,000 square feet of vacant space. In March this year, the US firm decided to press ahead with the development of Building 7, a 12-story, 334,000 square foot building to add to the complex.
For CIC this would be the second sizeable investment in the UK following a deal to buy the London headquarters building of Deutsche Bank last year.
The wealth fund has been building up its exposure to the asset class, and has around 0.62 percent – or $3.57 billion – of its allocation given over to property. Private equity accounts for 2.3 percent.
According to PERE’s Research and Analytics division, not only does it buy property direct but it also invests indirectly into funds. CIC increased its dependence on external managers for its investments. Around 64 percent of the SWF’s assets were externally managed by the end of 2012, versus 57 percent by the end of 2011.

With a mission to guide the future of business, Stanford turned to CH Reynolds to design and install a level of IT infrastructure that would support a new type of learning center. CH Reynolds provided the technological backbone for Stanford’s new state-of-the-art campus to house the Knight Management Center in its Graduate School of Business. The build-out of the center, which comprises nine multi-story student classrooms and lecture halls, required the latest solutions for voice, data and video. Stanford wanted it to be a showpiece.
The project involved a multi-year construction process, during which CH Reynolds remained a key partner, handling every aspect of the telecommunications installation for the campus. Stanford counted on CH Reynolds’ deep experience providing data services to educational institutions to ensure that the Knight Management Center would function smoothly from Day One. CH Reynolds’ skilled project managers were there from start to finish, carefully guiding the project through difficult situations, including weather delays that halted construction, to deliver exactly the end result Stanford wanted.
The resulting campus center houses 2,400 data locations spread out over 450,000 square feet of building space. CH Reynolds’ BICSI and manufacturer-certified technicians oversaw the installation of 2,000 fusions and 1,200 pairs of Cat 3 PE89 cable.
“We chose CH Reynolds for this multi-year, multi-phased project because we knew that their commitment to quality would not waver over time. What we achieved with the Knight Management Center speaks to their dedicated management style”. – Stanford University

Twitter is Back to Mac with New Catalyst App - Threat on Mac
Earlier this week, Apple launched macOS Catalina to the public, making it easier for developers to port their iPad apps to the Mac. Now it's time for Twitter to join the club with a brand new Catalyst version of its iPad application.
When Apple announced its plans for Catalyst in June, the return of Twitter to the Mac was a really big deal, and now the app is already available on the App Store.
Actually, anyone who has used Twitter for iPad, must be familiar with Twitter for Mac, as the app features a quite similar interface, apart from some tweaks that help it fit in on macOS.
Besides, there is also support for Dark Mode, which means that the Twitter app will automatically switch between light and dark interfaces based on users' macOS system settings.
Twitter used to offer a Mac app for several years, however, the company stopped supporting it for the last year, pointing users towards the web instead.
Nevertheless, in a blog post during this summer, Twitter explained that Mac Catalyst will make it easier for the company to support Mac and iOS both:

I'm one on those people struggling (big understatement) with the first half of the season, unfortunately still really struggling. But I really appreciate you taking the time to delve into why it is working for you. Unfortunately I'm just not there, which is killing me since there was so much I loved about almost all those episodes.
BUT I have adored the last 4 episodes and you illuminated almost every single thing I loved about this one. And it did feel like SAM AND DEAN again. This reminded me so much of the early seasons when Sam expressed his admiration so openly for Dean and Dean had unswerving faith in Sam. I while seasons 4 and 5 are probably my favorite (it so hard to chose though!), I miss THIS Dean and Sam.
I do absolutely think you're right that Carver was working towards away to get them back to this point (probably so it's more heartbreaking when fight again-joking). And I'm hoping that with what else they have planned will be enough to get me over being so pathetically sad whenever I watch 1-10. Because these last episodes have made me very happy and I want to feel that way about the rest.

After having a chance to delve more deeply into Q1 results from the various coal companies, it's becoming increasingly likely that my forecast for coal exports (detailed in this previous article) will be fairly close to actuals. In that article, I put the total figure somewhere in the range of 90-100Mst; however, that doesn't tell the full story.
These sentiments were reinforced by comments made by Peabody (NYSE:BTU) CEO, Gregory Boyce, in which he stated his opinion that coal exports would decrease ~25Mst from 2012. Specifically, he predicts met coal exports to decrease by 15Mst and thermal coal to decrease by 10Mst. We can see the impact this will have on some major coal producers. For example, roughly six weeks ago, Walter Energy (NYSE:WLT) announced production cuts at two met mines. So if exports for 2013 shape up as Mr. Boyce indicated, it's unlikely that we will see them resume standard production anytime soon.
Disclosure: I am long CLD, ACI. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Shared Folders View History Failing
Attempts to View History of Shared Folders now return the error message "... not enough data... minimum of one week's data required...". It used to work but no longer, even when no changes have been made to the Shares for several weeks.
Something got corrupted I guess. Can anyone point me towards a solution please.
Tuesday, February 10, 2009 10:26 PM
Progress! Yes I now have a list of size_log...qsm files in the 'new' qsm_data folder, all date/timed at 00.00 13 Feb. Clearly I have to wait until a week's worth of log entries has accumumated but I am confident that you have steered me to the solultion.

with "History" you mean the Previous versions, I assume? Although this is a legacy of the basis OS, Windows Server 2003, this feature is not supported in Windows Home Server.
This FAQ explains the backgrounds.

CageyWoolf said:
Did you recently do a Server Reinstallation, or install an add-in or app?
Wednesday, February 11, 2009 2:42 AM
No. CageyWoolf is referring to the History of each share shown in the Console (right click on a share, then click View History).
Wednesday, February 11, 2009 2:43 AM
Server re-installation several weeks ago. I have been struggling with a 'buggy' add-in (in and out several times recently) and the Patch Tuesday up-dates were installed yesterday. I would have expected a re-installion to reset the history but not an 'unrelated' add-in. The add-in that is causing me head scratching is the Tranquil AVA (My Music) which does not recognise my CD/DVD drive by the way. Am I just being impatient and not realising that Install/Uninstall of this add-in resets the View History?
Also I did explain my question well; it is right-click View History on any Shared Folder that produces the 'History Not Available' message. Sorry!
I have to say sorry, I simply assumed a translation issue (and had also totally eliminated, that this history in the console exists).
The data for the history of shared folder is stored in C:\Programme\Windows Home Server\qsm_data on the server.
So maybe deleting the .qsm files (or moving them to another folder), rebooting the server and waiting at least a week fixes the behavior (a method, which is unsupported and not yet tested, so it would be done at own risk). The files have all a time stamp of 0:00, so don't expect an immidiate reappearance.
Or the permissions to that folder are misadjusted. Do the files you see there have the current date (or at least the number of files which correspondents with the number of currently shared folders)?
Proposed as answer by Olaf EngelkeModerator Friday, February 13, 2009 10:13 PM
Wednesday, February 11, 2009 12:45 PM
I even left the 'not' out... should be "I did NOT explain..."
qsm_data sounds very hopeful... but I can't find it!. I have only "de" and "en" folders under C:\Program Files\Windows Home Server. Properties do not show as 'Hidden' but may be it is. How to fix this please. Sorry if it is a 'dumbo' question.
Wednesday, February 11, 2009 5:51 PM
it is not clear, if you logged in via Remote Desktop or locally on the server using the account Administrator and the console password?
Only here you should find that folder, not on the client PC. If it is not on the server, maybe it helps to recreate it. (The folder is not hidden and not marked as system, so it should be visible with default settings in Windows Explorer.)
I moved my files off from that folder (and got instantly no history any more). Now waiting, if the files are being rebuilt automatically.
I can confirm now, that the files have been recreated at midnight on my server for each of the shares.
So this folder on the servers c: drive seems to be the key for the history as assumed.
Thursday, February 12, 2009 8:27 AM
I was using an RDC; now connected direct to the server vga monitor and PS2 keyboard and mouse.
On C:\Program Files\Windows Homer Server I now have three sub-folders, de, en, and qsm_data. The last I have just added and it is currently empty. The file qsm.exe is present in the 'parent' folder and Task Manager shows it running, using 7,412 K but zero CPU usage.
If I follow you correctly I should hope that at midnight the qsm.exe will spring into life and recreate the files that got deleted somehow. I shall have another look tomorrow and see if all is now progressing.

Indonesian Splendour / Indische pracht: Four Centuries of Fascination for the Flora of Indonesia…, Book by Dennis A-Tjak (Hardcover) | chapters.indigo.ca
Indonesian Splendour / Indische pracht: Four Centuries of Fascination for the Flora of Indonesia…
byDennis A-Tjak, Bea Brommer
Indonesia?s flora?with more than 45,000 plant varieties?is one of the most abundant in the world. Photographer Dennis A-Tjak has been making a name for himself as the portraitist of old flower varieties from countries that the Dutch East India Company traded with during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. What fascinates him most about these varieties is that some of them have been passed on from generation to generation. A-Tjak has developed his own style for photographing old flower varieties and his portraits stand out because of their technical perfection. The hyper-realistic photographs exude perfection, drama, and elegance. They are surprising, sometimes disconcertingly abstract, but every one of them is delightful to look at.
Bea Brommer?s historical introduction to A-Tjak?s photographs describes how the Dutchmen dove into the study of Indonesian flora and sometimes devoted their whole lives to botanical research. She also explains how many of those native plants and flowers were shipped to the Netherlands where they were cultivated in the heated greenhouses of the botanical gardens and estates of wealthy individuals and gradually took root in Dutch national flower culture.
Photographer Dennis A-Tjak trained at the Rietveld School of Art and Design. Bea Brommer is the author of To My Dear Pieternelletje: Grandfather and Grandaughter in VOC Time, 1710-1720 and Johannes ten Klooster (1873?1940): A Man with Two Lives.

Africa does not need 'strong leaders' - Latest News
I have described previously my fascination with the paradox exhibited by a few African leaders – across government, business and civil society – who despite showing promise as posters for visionary, transformative leadership within the continent, still fall short of practical excellence.
Paul Kagame, by economic metrics, deserves to be considered a successful leader, having led the East African nation to economic prosperity, promoting gender parity in government and healthcare. However, economic progress is not equal to quality of life. Kagame "unfortunately has refused to let go of power. Instead, he has supervised some of the most oppressive political spaces in Africa, silencing dissent with impunity, promoting a climate of fear, hunting down political opponents, intimidating rivals, tying down the press, and ensuring an electoral process that guaranteed a ridiculous 98% victory in last year's election." In doing this, he has travelled down the same well-worn path of a number of African dictators, the totem of which is Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe. Like Kagame, Mugabe began as the toast of the newly-free nations, showing vision and sophistication, building bridges and institutions, expanding healthcare and education.
"Unfortunately, barely two years after his 1980 presidential victory, the onslaught on the opposition began, at least 10,000 killed between 1982 and 1985 as he somehow got it into his head that only he could sustain the progress, and that only he could lead is own country - and forever."
So, let's look to Africa's west
After she was announced recipient of The Ibrahim Prize for Achievement in African Leadership, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf became the focus of robust analysis across the continent, especially on the subjects of political and successful leadership. Sirleaf, without doubt, deserves the honour reserved for 'African executive leaders who, under challenging circumstances, have developed their countries and strengthened democracy and human rights for the shared benefit of their people, paving the way for sustainable and equitable prosperity' ; a condition previously met only by Joaquim Alberto Chissano of Mozambique and South Africa's Nelson Mandela in 2007, Festus Gontebanye Mogae of Botswana in 2008, Pedro De Verona Rodrigues Pires of Cape Verde in 2011 and Hifikepunye Pohamba of Namibia in 2014.
The reaction should have been excitement uniformly across the continent. But the economy under Johnson-Sirleaf hasn't been one to boast about, including corruption, nepotism and homophobia.
This sets up a false dichotomy, as if we are to choose between freedom, and progress. As if on the continent, it is impossible to get the balance of both as citizens and as nations. But success must certainly mean something else: one that doesn't trade economic development for citizens' freedom. One that doesn't equate employee burn-out with achieving business KPIs and goals. And this should not be hard.
On strength and servant leadership
Said Archbishop Desmond Tutu: "Real leaders are not blinded by the trappings of power, but recognise their roles as leaders." First introduced as a concept over 2,000 years ago by the biblical Jesus, the term 'servant leadership' was coined by Robert K. Greenleaf in 1970 when he published his classic essay, The Servant as Leader.
The core of the message is simple, but it has been difficult in practice on the continent. Leadership is heartfelt service, not servitude. One of the major (often left unsaid) cultural oppositions to the concept of servant leadership – and servant leaders – is the desire across societies to value in some sense, what is vaguely referred to as 'strong leaders'.
"Africa needs stronger leadership, says Obasanjo", a headline from a Nigerian national daily screamed in July 2018. In the piece, the former Nigerian president who was speaking at a forum on African Development Finance Institutions, moderated by William Wallis of the Financial Times, was credited to saying that "strong leadership is critical to the economic development of the continent".
While Obasanjo's call may be interpreted as a call for stronger leadership institutions within the continent or leaders who understand the imperative and possess the capacity to do so, several others have used the term to mean 'strong leader', 'strong individual' and other meanings, conveying a messianic status on individuals. Need evidence? 'We need strong leaders to make a difference in Nigeria' is another newspaper headline, this time credited to a sitting governor of one of the states in the southwestern part of Nigeria. In the governor's words, 'Leadership is not about Father Christmas; it is not about missionary work, it is about having a vision of how you want a place to be, how I very much favour strong leadership. I believe a country like Nigeria needs a strong leader in order to change the country for better because by our nature, we are used to this element of impunity where you do what you like…'
A stance like this – that people's freedom is a price to be paid for leadership and development – worries me.
Strong leadership, in most contexts, loosely describes getting to a goal, triumphing and dominating over opposition, and attaining your vision even if it costs others their humanity. The strong/weak theme has been subtly present when describing leadership – and leadership success or otherwise – in Africa for a long while. For example, beyond viral remarks about his cluelessness, former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan was often referred to as a weak leader. However, Mugabe, Kagame - who confessed that "a strong leader is not necessarily a bad leader" – and Charles Taylor, have all at some point been referred as strong African leaders. Actually, in Mugabe's case, he was likened to Jesus Christ. Like Mugabe, the North Korean Kim II Sung had been portrayed as being 'superior to Christ in love, superior to Buddha in benevolence, superior to Confucius in virtue and superior to Mohammed in justice' .
So this strong/weak theme is not an African problem only.
"Attempts to portray the person who heads a rival party as a weak leader have become common in a number of countries. When he was leader of the opposition in Great Britain, Tony Blair liked to portray the British prime minister, John Major, who had inherited a divided parliamentary party, as 'weak'. In Canada, for example, shortly after Stephanie Dion was elected Leader of the Liberal Party in 2006, the Conservatives launched a sustained campaign to define him as weak… It is evident that politicians believe that if they can pin the 'weak' label on their principal opponent (hoping) this will work to their advantage with voters" writes British political scientist, Archie Brown.
Strong leadership is never the opposite of weak, in this context. And 'weak' should never be defined in terms of empathy and vulnerability.
"Dictatorial powers owe a vast amount to the social and political contexts in which leaders achieve governmental offices, to followers who hope to gain from their patronage, to elites who accommodate them for the fear of something worse, and to the irrational belief that one person can embody the wisdom of the nation." Archie concludes. These are the archetypes of 'strong leadership' – unfortunately often the kind of leadership that increases fear, oppression and lack of compassion, social trust and genuine happiness.
The myth of strong leadership – one without compassion – is not only evident in politics. Society has been sold similar myths in business too. People in our global market economy – and society - have been told that it is countercultural to deal with compassion – and truly show empathy, authenticity and radical transparency – while building great businesses.
Haven't we ever wondered the origin of words like guerrilla marketing?
This is a deception younger generation of Africans should recognise and avoid. We can be vulnerable and accountable, authentic and bold, build great friendship with workers and still be profitable. We can be fearless and still love unconditionally.
Africa needs builders; leaders who understand the imperatives and the mechanics of how truly great societies have been built. Leaders, who deeply understand the necessity of balance and wholesomeness today – this age of abundance and exponential progress, and approach the same with human-centric values. Those who understand and overcome – through knowledge – what psychologists Leonid Rozenblit and Frank Keil called the Illusion of Explanatory Depth and in humility become attentive to non-random patterning and embrace studying how other emerging nations – from China to the Scandinavian nations – have constructed, brick after brick, their nations. The illusion of explanatory depth explains what happens when someone tells you she understands how something as simple as your zipper works, but stammers or gets confounded by silence when asked to explain it, step-by-step.
More important than this knowledge is a leadership that values compassion, places people first, prioritises their wellbeing and creates structures to promote the culture of love and joy. Love in this context is about service – genuine service.
Like I once noted, the "talk of love and kindness is too fluffy, we say, too fuzzy, too soft. So soft that American presidential candidate Hillary Clinton abandoned her preferred messaging of love and kindness because it sounded like something for the Peace Corps. Instead, she chose a revolving door of poll-tested slogans that eventually spoke to no one. Not without reason though -- When she spoke about a "politics of meaning" in the 90s, the entire American media laughed her out of the room – "Saint Hillary," they mocked — and into the arms of hard-nosed, cold-eyed hawks. And yet, Mandela, with his fluff, won freedom for his people; King, with such fuzz, laid a path to the Civil Rights Act, and Gandhi, with all that jazz, won independence for his nation, among very many other landmark accomplishments."
Abraham Maslow gave to humanity one of the best-known frameworks in understanding human behaviour and aspiration. In his hierarchy of needs, the top of the pyramid is self-actualisation – that state when people experience intense and transcendent 'peak experiences' . I like to call it that state when people flourish.
"In our quest for wholeness, self-actualisation is the ultimate aspiration, but it has less to do with what we can do for ourselves, and more to do with what we can do for others. According to Maslow, self-actualised people accept the reality around them and feel driven by a sense of personal responsibility to help others and participate in solving larger problems," writes venture capitalist Anthony Tjan in a recent piece .
"Wholeness, love and self-actualisation are subjects more commonly found in the fields of philosophy and psychology than in business. Most [people] keep business and personal lives separate, in the same way we distinguish between the 'soft' and 'hard' qualities of leadership. But in fact, they are intertwined. So why should Maslow hierarchy of needs, which begins with our basic need for survival and safety, and ascends to the human need for love, esteem and self-actualisation – bypass the worlds of business, [politics] and leadership?" he asks.
I agree with Anthony. What Africa needs is a pursuit of more human-centric, whole and effective leadership – in business, politics, civil society and public service. We need to not only embrace the use of words like 'love', 'joy', but also practice what we often preach, but never find to be 'practical'.
We need an approach that – like Lincoln Abraham in getting votes needed to pass the Thirteenth Amendment, abolishing slavery through the United States Congress – employs 'a combination of high principle and low politics' . The emphasis is on high principle that prioritises being human.
A case for joy and humanism
Africa – and Africans – is in need of leadership that upholds, based on our common humanity, the ideal of human flourishing; that it's good for people to lead long, healthy, happy, rich, and stimulating lives.
A joy-focused leadership philosophy, what one of my colleagues at Joy, Inc. termed 'Characracy', reminds us that one of the most important tasks of leadership is to ensure the happiness and flourishing of people. And this holds true in business, politics, civil society and our personal lives. By the way, the newly-minted word is coined from the Greek word 'Chara' meaning joy and '-cracy', the term denoting a particular form of influence.
"The conditions for achieving happiness within a nation are becoming increasingly well understood, thanks to advances in survey data, psychology, and comparative social analysis. The World Happiness Report has demonstrated that a country's ranking on happiness depends on six key conditions: economic prosperity, including decent work for all who want it; the physical and mental health of the citizens; freedom of individuals to make key life decisions; strong and vibrant social support networks (social capital); shared public values of generosity; and social trust, including confidence in the honesty of business and government."
Those conditions, outlined in the 2018 edition of the Global Happiness Policy Report, seem to equate economic growth, freedom to make decisions and social trust on the same pedestrian.
Just as the infamous Janteloven or Law of Jante which holds that "the success of the team is more important than individual achievement" has a Scandinavian root – appropriately so for a section of the world that tops the happiness rankings yearly - Africa also has, imbrued in our culture, what we call Ubuntu – that concept of our humanity intertwined, commonly described by the phrase 'I am because you are'. Ubuntu is part of the Zulu phrase "Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu", which literally means that a person is a person through other people .
In his 1999 book, No Future Without Forgiveness, Desmond Tutu helped popularise the idea, explaining that to know Ubuntu is "to say, 'My humanity is caught up, is inextricably bound up, in yours'".
"A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed, or treated as if they were less than who they are," he wrote.
I think Archbishop Tutu gets it.
Progress consists of deploying resources – the fullness of our humanity – to allow others flourish in the same way we want to flourish. If the goal of maximising human flourishing – life, health, freedom, happiness, knowledge, richness of experiences and love – is referred to as humanism, then our concept of African humanism – characterised both by the Ubuntu and Omolúwàbí values – may help create an ethical structure for successful leadership and flourishing within the continent. By the way, Omolúwàbí values are ethos embraced by the Yoruba in West Africa, loosely interpreted to emphasise nobility of character.
The path to the future of leadership in Africa will be influenced by a deep understanding of our interconnectedness, and commitment to truth and the basic values of compassion, radical transparency, and integrity – values that are at the core of most great institutions and leaders. Standing on that foundation, we can build the competencies that in any – and every – sector, including technology, is poised at delivering development on a grander scale to the continent.
Both on personal and institutional levels, character and compassion are fundamentals of leadership – transcending competence. When compassion and joy are at the core of all human decisions, not only do businesses thrive, nations also flourish. Dubai, for instance, has attained the state of global patronage because of its "recognition that every single effort should be driven by and focused on the generation of a quantifiable positive impact to the happiness and wellbeing of those who interact with the city" .
However we decide to define success, in the end, only a people-centered leadership that recognise and help explore the fullness of our humanity – our emotions and values – will transform the continent to one ours and future generation will be proud of.
Capitalism and the international liberal consensus about self-interest, rational market players and the necessity of choosing productivity over human flourishing have clearly begun to fail everywhere from the United States to the United Kingdom.

Ravioli filling, authentic recipes and ideas for delicious dishes
Ravioli and their filling. A separate chapter of real recipes for ravioli. Each different filling for ravioli shows off its best match, sometimes even the pasta used is diverse. The first references to ravioli are found placing special attention to the filling, floured and cooked in boiling water, a tradition still kept in the "ignudi" (naked) and in the preparation of the classic filling for ravioli of central Italy: ricotta and spinach.
Meat is the star in Emilia Romagna and Piedmont, where the "agnolotti" contain a mixture of pork, lamb, beets, carrots, celery and onion. Traditional in Sardinia, but also widespread in the continent, the filling of potatoes (and mint) or pumpkin (with macaroons and mustard typical romagnolo). Less known, but tasty, the Capri alternative, no eggs in the dough and with an inviting filling of fresh and dried cheese.
A topic on which chefs have always competed, producing recipes with an amazing filling, such as endive and ham, lemon, thyme and roast meats, scampi, lobster, shrimp, red radish and much more. Experiment, but without losing sight of the calories: a half portion of ravioli (100 g) contains about 225 kcal.

The restored barn gable with bat house and barn owl box
Sept 2001 - The upper part of the south gable end of our barn has been battened both inside and out and the hay entrance replaced with a window. The small opening on the right with the turned perch opens to a large nest box for our barn owls. Hopefully, they will discover the box this winter when the scaffolding is down and nest there next spring. An infrared videocamera is permanently mounted in this box. The small opening on the left is the entrance to the interior bat house. Vertical bars on this entrance exclude birds. A small opening at the top of one of the three chambers in this bat house allows the bats to enter from the interior of the barn. This will eventually be closed, allowing access from the outside only. A plastic window box under the bat house collects the guano and can easily be emptied at the end of the season. Fiberglass mesh prevents the bats from entering the guano box. I am presently building windows to replace the ventilators and continuing down the wall with battens. But, in the meantime, most of the bats have already moved to an outside bat house.
2003 Update - The south gable wall is completed and barn owls are already using their new nest box. The big brown bats are using the electrically heated box on the east wall, well away from the owls, as well as the porch shutters and barn eaves. All is well!
2007 update - The east wall renovation required removal of both bat boxes. The big brown bats are making use of both the barn eaves and, on hot days, the house shutters on the upstairs porch, in the shade of the sycamores. There are still over 50 bats, no fewer than when they had access to the interior of the barn. A bat and swift tower is on my to do list.

Soon after wondering the problems she needed to question, Gu Ning made around walking right out of the lounge. Every time they couldn’t see her, she had taken out ropes to fasten them up. Next, she walked aside and had taken out a mobile computer through the telepathic eyeball s.p.a.ce. She moved the captured online video to the laptop computer then cloned it right into a USB display disk.

drain problem, flood, tree, trash
Branch obstructed by rock debris after storm causing water to flow into neighborhood back yards. needs to be dug out to prevent land loss and areas of stagnant water. I know it will be low on the list but the storm water from entire area draind into this branch. Obstruction will lead to increased flooding with normal rains.

Patsy Williams 900 Neuhoff Ln. Nashville TN 37205 (Guest)
I agree. I lost a good portion of my lot along the creek. The creek needs to be dredged and the big bolders removed. We have had a problem in the past with disease carrying mosquitos and Metro has sprayed in this area for this problem. The standing water will enhance it badly. Any help we could get would be greatly appreciated.
John Freeamm (Guest)
A FEMA rep came by a few weeks after the flood and said they were going to require METRO to repair it as part of a storm water issue.
JT Freeman (Guest)
NO IT HAS NOT. NOW WITH THE BRANCH OVERFLOWING IT'S BANKS WITH EVERY RAIN THE MOSQUITOES ARE TERRIBLE. THE GUY FROM FEMA SAID THEY WOULD REQUIRE METRO TO REPAIR IT. THE GUY FROM METRO BASICALLY SAID NOT IN YOUR LIFETIME. WHEN STORMWATER ADDED THE DRAIN TO RELIEVE FLOODING OM PERCY WARNER BLVD IT ONLY MADE THINGS WORSE, THEN THE FLOOD CAME AND IT IS A REAL PROBLEM. I GUESS WE DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT ADDRESS TO GET SERVICE!!!
Patsy Williams (Guest)
I have decided the only thing we can do is to work to get Dean defeated. He is not interested in the everyday citizen of this county. Maybe a new Mayor will listen and help.
John Freeman (Guest)
No. It has not been repaired. What you don't seem to get is the branch tapers from 5 feet across and three feet deep to 1 foot across and three inches deep as a result of storm debris (rocks) a lot of which probably washed from the railroad bed. Every time it rains it over flows banks on both sides and creates swampy areas. Let me know who I need to get a permit from and I will be happy to rent a backhoe and do it myself. God knows Metro stormwater will be of no help.
No it has not. I am doing my best with a shovel. Do not worry. I will not bill stormwater for my efforts.
No, we are still waiting.
No we continue to wait. With any luck the high water will wash away the neighbors chickens.
This issue has not be fixed.
Metro Water Services (MWS) has investigated a few times over the years and is aware of this specific concern by neighbors. Streams are not dredged and rocks are not removed by MWS since flooding is not necessarily averted through this process. Streams are regulated by the State. Erosion and accumulation of silt are a natural occurance in streams. You can follow up with Metro Water Services. Email: [email protected]
Metro made the drainage problem worse before the flood by putting several drains from Percy Warner Blvd and diverting storm water directly into Vaughhn's Branch. Then with the flood came and many rocks and debris washed into the branch, a lot of which originated in the railroad bed. When a representative from FEMA saw the mess, he said Metro Stormwater would be required to rectify the situation. We also have a drainage probelm because of inadequate storm drains on our end of the street. We have only one on our block and the other end of the street has five in one block. I guess we just do not have the right connections. I thought that an example of what my storm water tax added to each month's bill was to be used for. Most of our issues are far from natural. If you have time, come by and I'll let you see first hand how unnaturel our problems are.

• Built standard with our clear COATED CABLE (12ft length), but also compatible with all colors of both our bare and coated cables!
If you're a bare cable junkie 'cause you just flat out need that crazy speed, be sure and stick to rubber gym flooring and other similar smooth surfaces to help your cable last longer.
If you think you might end up on some concrete / dirt / sand / lava / or really anything besides smooth gym flooring, just be sure you're packin' a coated cable for all that adventure to help your cable get through the workout. But get back to that gym floor ASAP because any rough surface will chew up even a coated cable before long.
The cables may sting (a little) when it meets bare skin, so probably best not to jump barefoot... or naked for that matter.
SESSION4 is the newest iteration of the iconic rope that started it all. Train with it, compete with it, travel with it... this is your do everything, go anywhere rope.
Every one of our high-performance ropes is meticulously assembled and quality checked at our headquarters in Northern California. Our patented design and highly specialized assembly process combine to produce the unparalleled balance of free spin and power transfer that our ropes are known for.

I like the expressions you give your drawings, they have a certain charm! i see you're trying to apply the reilly head for the erspective. What I would say is that the Reilly is more complex than the Loomis... Also, when we draw, the brain tends to try and straighten out things which makes us want to put the eyes at the same distance on either side of the nose, even when the head is rotated. this is what I notice in your drawings. I think you just need to practice with this in mind to try and follow what you see, rether than what you interpret, if that makes sense? Keep on the good work, and keep the great personality in your drawings!

Nice work on rendering your male figure standing attitude, Jason, that's a very technically good job.
Again, I really feel that it's a teeny bit too rigid and stiff there. Why don't you please liven yourself up with your line quality, by working out with 156 minutes of 30 second attitudes??? (156 x 60/30=9360/30=312 ruff poses/5 days a week=62 crude poses a day, in a week, all flipped horizontally and/or vertically, or normal, thru the special tools for our members on Line of Action; Or you can take a screenshot of each pose, so that you would flip them yourself)
The reason why you could and should go with this extremely and totally beneficlal critique is so, that you would be able to tap into your perceptions of the figures' edges, and the right side of the brain, even if it's through the quicker gestures. And that applies to your amazing head drawings. For more info, I encourage you look up for the PDFs or the books, or ebooks of the Loomis and Reilly figure drawing and head sketching books.

Masjid holds a vital role in the life of all Muslims. Throughout history, Muslim communities have always been attached to the Masjid in some way or the other. It was not restricted to being a place of worship, performing Islamic rituals or a social and political dimension, but more interestingly as symbol of belonging and identity. But is this remain the case, are Muslims today attached to this institution as their predecessor were, what have changed within the role of the mosques in our society. Today, there is a huge difference between the influential and prestigious role that mosques held throughout history and the role it currently undertake. It is sincerely hoped that this paper will be useful for those interested in knowing about the role of the Mosque as an institution, it will try to shed the light on the historical role the mosque institution preformed and its contribution to life. As well, give a general overview on the current statues of mosques. The researcher has quoted numerous verses from the Quran and prophetic sayings on various aspects of the Mosque, to relate its role to the Islamic teachings. While acknowledging the importance of understanding the physical component and structure of the mosque, it is beyond the scope of this work.

Revision as of 00:48, January 26, 2007
The term protopresbyter (or protopriest) is equivalent to archpriest in Greek practice, while in Slavic usage, a protopresbyter is a rank separate from and higher than archpriest. Sometimes the protopresbyter is styled as Right Reverend. Also, there are usually only a handful of protopresbyters in a given Slavic national church at any one time.

Community Engagement At Castleberg - Riverbank News
Community Engagement At Castleberg
Residents were invited to a free lunch this past Saturday at Castleberg Park in Riverbank. Photo Contributed
There were signs available for community members to see the future improvements that the city may be implementing at Castleberg Park. Photo Contributed
Riverbank Police Services Chief Ed Ridenour and Riverbank City Councilmember Luis Uribe, who represents District 1, hosted a Community BBQ at Castleberg Park this past Saturday. There were several residents in attendance that were informed of upcoming upgrades to the park and an addition of cameras.
"The public was happy to hear about the upgrades and safety measures," said Ridenour. "I believe the upgrades will increase the use of the park and the safety for our residents."
The BBQ began at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 21 and ended at 1 p.m. There were over 150 meals distributed that included chips and a hot dog. Central Valley Community Resources had a table set up where they served up shaved ice. There was no cost to the public.
Uribe remarked that meals that were left over were distributed to the homeless community and an organization that helps those in need.
For several years there has been a problem with graffiti inside the bathrooms at Castleberg. Due to this issue the Chief has suggested installing security cameras near the park to deter vandalism and keep the community safe. This was well received by the attendees, Uribe noted.
"Per capita funding has been already allocated to redo the basketball courts and new benches," stated Uribe. "We are also in the process of securing a CDBG (Community Development Block Grant) grant to tear out the old trail and redo it completely and expanding it to five feet. ADA accessibility is very important to the council and I noticed there were no ADA ramps on the west side of the park when I was walking the park with my daughter one day and I have been advocating for ADA access on that side as well."
With a balance in an old road investment from previous years Uribe explained that those funds may be used to reinvest in the park like adding exercise equipment and resurfacing the basketball courts. Another option to fund the upgrades if the CDBG grant is unsuccessful, he added, was through the General Fund or the Public Benefits Fund.
"I heard some great ideas, from new energy-efficient lights throughout the trail as well as placing outdoor exercise equipment within sight of the children's slides so while the kids play the adults can work out," expressed Uribe.
The basketball court improvement could begin by the end of the year and the other improvements are slated for the beginning of 2022.
The Riverbank community was treated to a free lunch at Castleberg Park and updated on some future improvements. Photo Contributed

Maria's Space: The Underground River by Martha Conway
THE UNDERGROUND RIVER (on-sale June 20, 2017; Touchstone) by Martha Conway is set aboard a nineteenth century riverboat theater, the novel is the thought-provoking story of a charmingly frank and naïve seamstress who saves runaway slaves on the Underground Railroad, jeopardizing her own livelihood while discovering the courageous and honorable woman in herself.
Booklist raves, "Readers will profit from narrator May's attention to detail and will appreciate the richly drawn showboat and the North-South border setting." The book was also mentioned in a recent Los Angeles Times piece about the influence of the Underground Railroad on books, plays, television and more: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/arts/la-ca-cm-underground-railroad-20170319-htmlstory.html.
Though fiction, THE UNDERGROUND RIVER illuminates a dark time in American history—when helping those running to freedom could be the most dangerous act anyone could do. Steeped in history, the novel is a portrayal of life on the Ohio River (Conway is from Cleveland), the often dangerous and precarious natural division between the North and the South—the free and the slave-holding states—in antebellum America.

The UK Corporate Finance team is pleased to announce the completion the sale of loveholidays to the existing management team and Livingbridge, a leading UK mid-market private equity fund - PwC UK
The UK Corporate Finance team is pleased to announce the completion of the sale of loveholidays to the existing management team and Livingbridge, a leading UK mid-market private equity fund
The PwC UK Retail, Consumer and Leisure Corporate Finance team is pleased to announce the completion of the sale of loveholidays, the tech-enabled online travel agent and short-haul beach holiday provider to Livingbridge, a leading UK mid-market private equity fund with significant travel sector experience.
loveholidays is the fastest growing online travel agent and 6th largest ATOL holder in the UK. Founded by Alex Francis and Jonny Marsh in 2012 and now a team of 140, loveholidays allows customers to create bespoke holidays through 'discovery search' inspiring customers to filter by the attributes that matter to them, rather than requiring them to start with where and when.
Livingbridge's investment will be used to fuel further growth through customer acquisition and driving repeat booking rates. Alongside this, Livingbridge will look to work with the business to support further product innovation as well as category expansion.
The investment comes at a time when UK holiday spend continues to grow, with outbound travel maintaining a c.70% share of total spend, and online dynamic packaged holidays accounting for £3bn of holiday spend in 2017.
PwC CF acted as sellside financial advisor to loveholidays. The PwC team consisted of Rick Jones, Malcolm Wren, Charlie Graham, Mark Deed and Charlotte Astleford.
"The PwC team has been fantastic to work with throughout this transaction. Their deep knowledge and understanding of both the travel sector and buyer communities has played an important role in delivering this outcome. It is with great pleasure that we welcome Livingbridge to the team at loveholidays. This is an exciting time for the business and we look forward to working with them as we begin this next chapter."
Al Francis CEO, loveholidays
"The PwC team were instrumental in delivering a tremendous outcome for shareholders, rewarding them for supporting the business through this phase of its growth journey."
Roger Flynn Chairman, loveholidays
"We are delighted to have helped the management team and shareholders achieve a great outcome. loveholidays has undergone a phenomenal growth journey to date and we are excited to see it continue with Livingbridge's support. This is a landmark transaction for PwC and further evidences our expertise within the travel and technology sectors."

no-racism.net: Tampere & Amsterdam - EUropean imperialism and the history of Justice and Home Affairs Borders creat (printversion)
Tampere & Amsterdam - EUropean imperialism and the history of Justice and Home Affairs Borders creat (vom 09.09.2000),
URL: http://no-racism.net/article/46/, besucht am 22.10.2020
The EU summit in Tampere (Special Meeting of the European Council) has been prepared to implement a concrete harmonisation of EUropean immigration and asylum laws. The aim is to get full control over who is allowed to travel to, and to live in, EUrope in a common policing effort. The EUropean governments argue that they are forced to close the borders and prevent people from living where they wish because, as they say, the citizens of the EUropean countries are racist and demand such measures. While it is accurate to say that large parts of the population in EUropean countries have come, in recent years, to act and vote in racist ways, we should not confuse the cause and the effect. Whatever fears of "the other" exist in people in usual times, they do not usually lead to the complete negation of these people"s right to exist, or even to choose the place where they want to live. Only a consistent and sustained effort by the governments to promote racist attitudes allows them to use the rising racism as an excuse, as a facade for their restrictive and dehumanising policies. Thus government policies breed racism, and racism is then used to justify the government policies.
"Foreigners" as security risk
The way government policies breed racism is by depicting so-called "foreigners" (people who can be recognized by the fact that they have the "wrong" passport) as a security risk to the country in which they live. The people who have the right passport are artificially described as all having the same interests (whether they are men or women; employers, employed or free-lance; old or young), and those who have the wrong passport are described at the same time as being a threat to those interests. In this way, the migration with its wide range of questions (from personal tragedies of why people are fleeing the place they used to call their home to difficulties of living in a new place with a different language and partly hostile and racist people) is reduced to a security question, an administrative, rationalised question of policing and repression. Thus, questions of migration have become the responsibility of the Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) ministries in EUrope. In addition, issues related to asylum, which are conceptually different from other migration issues, have been mixed with the latter and thus incorporated into the general JHA policing-repression scheme.
Note that the entire discourse on internal security and the threats to security posed by "foreigners" is a construction serving the political interests of a class of politicians, and as such it is based on no hard facts. The role of ideology is therefore central if we want to understand how EUrope has been constructed as a "fortress", relying on discourses about organised crime, international crime, "evil" human traffickers (rather than heroic escape agents helping people - the choice of words describes two completely different perceptions of reality), the use of vocabulary taken from natural catastrophes, such as "refugees flooding into Europe", and the outright lies about refugees and other migrants exploiting the social security system.
For the purpose of discussing the Special Meeting of the European Council in Tampere and the issues it deals with, the only way to understand it is by looking at decision-making processes in the EU and the increasing importance of `Justice and Home Affairs` (JHA).
The German presidency, in its final 1999 report*, quite aptly describes it like this:
"The Federal Republic of Germany took over the presidency during a decisive phase in the intensification of cooperation in the area of Justice and Home Affairs ... The Amsterdam Treaty, which came into force on 1 May 1999, stands for a marked development of justice and home affairs co-operation in the EU, through the harmonisation of important JHA themes, the improving of the institutional framework for the remaining areas of inter-governmental cooperation as well by integrating the Schengen "acquis".
After the coming into force of the Treaty of Amsterdam it can be said that JHA has increased in weight and taken a central position in the overall framework of EUropean activities. This is why the fact, that the European Council will, for the first time exclusively deal with JHA issues on 15-16 October in Tampere, should be welcomed."
The centrality of JHA within EUropean politics is evident. But what does it encompass? JHA includes everything that is important for citizens" rights, freedom of movement (migration and asylum), state control of personal life, data protection, the definition of "security" and "foreigners", and consequently issues of racism and fascism:
Officially, it includes immigration (visa, external border control, asylum law and practise, deportation, "re-admission" ...), policing (Europol, collection of data not only of "suspects", but their friends and family, cross-border police cooperation, mutual training...) and judicial cooperation (harmonisation of all laws dealing with asylum, providing the legal basis for police cooperation, recognising across EUrope court decisions made in one member state...).
The Council, JHA, and most importantly: who decides what and how
EUropean integration has been a long-standing process. Since the end of the second world war, Germany and France have pooled their coal resources to reduce the "potential source for economic tension" and to strengthen "the potential backbone of Europe"s war machines". Jean Monnet finalised the project: "France and Germany should relinquish national sovereignty over their countries" coal and steel production and pool it in a supranational and entirely independent (read: not under the control of national, elected parliaments) organisation, a High Authority".*
This is a very basic outline of the origins of the Council of the European Union*, or the European Council (not to be confused with the Council of Europe, an entirely different organisation!). The Council consists of the Heads of Government of all European Union member states. Other EU councils deal with specific aspects of the EU and their members are ministers (e.g., the Justice and Home Affairs Council is made up of justice and home affairs ministers). The General Council and the specific councils are often not distinguished other than calling the general one the "European Council" and the ministerial one the "Council of the European Union", so beware of confusions.
Although economic integration has a long history, political integration has turned out to be more difficult. The Single European Act (SEA) of 1986 however defined a new policy area of EUropean integration: European Political Cooperation (EPC). During the negotiations leading up to the treaty of Maastricht (Treaty of the European Union, TEU, which came into force 1993), the Heads of Government, as distinct from parliaments, thought about the method of integration as well as the nature and content of political cooperation.
...in the EU had, until the introduction of JHA into EUropean integration, relied on what is known as the Community method: the Council acts on the basis of a Commission proposal, which can be withdrawn by the Commission at any stage in the legislative process. For many acts, the Council has to consult the European Parliament (and the Economic and Social Committee), and all of its acts are subject to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice.
Now especially France proposed a different method for future policy making: the so-called "pillar method". It was proposed that the EU be built on several pillars. Only one of these would fall under the Community method. More "sensitive" areas, such as foreign and security policy as well as JHA would be negotiated and decided through an intergovernmental process. That basically means Heads of Government, ministers, officials, security officers, heads of police etc., sit down informally, talk, work out action plans, produce lots of documents which lay the basis for policy, but all this without having to consult national or the European Parliament. The whole area of JHA is not under the jurisdiction of any court. That makes the Council the most powerful and most unaccountable organ in the European Union.
Maastricht, JHA and the EUropean state
The Maastricht treaty (proposed in 1991, ratified by member states in 1992, came into force in 1993) consists of 6 Titles. Titles V and VI define the second and the third pillar which are intergovernmental (read: undemocratic). This is the first time that the economic and the political dimension of EUropean integration were brought together in an institutionalised, structured way. Note that the EUropean system therefore acquired state structures
mechanisms for the maintenance of "law and order" through courts and judiciary as well as law enforcers (the police)
a system of internal security for threats to the existence of the state)*.
What is new about the EUropean state is that the usual notions of liberal democracy (not that liberal democracy has got anything to do with justice and equality...) don"t apply to it: there"s no separation of powers, no checks being made by the judiciary (the European Court of Justice) on the legislative and executive (the Council and Europol). As Tony Bunyan puts it "This state has been conceived by governments, honed by state officials, and passed back to governments to agree - only then have national parliaments been asked to ratify the whole package. Although national parliaments are asked to ratify the Conventions, the Conventions are not open to amendment. "Resolutions" and "Agreements" between the EC states, which set out new policies, do not even require parliamentary approval." (in "Statewatching the new Europe", p.32)
Back to Maastricht and JHA: Title VI of the Maastricht treaty (or, Treaty of the European Union - TEU) specifically deals with JHA. Article K4 foresees the setting up of a committee to control JHA in the EU - this was named the K4 Coordinating Committee which, in turn, has (or had, because Amsterdam gives JHA a completely new structure again) several working groups under its wings. It is also responsible for setting a European Information System EIS (parallel, and later merged with the Schengen Information System ISI).
TREVI (Terrorisme, Radicalisme, Extr"©misme et Violence Int"©rnationale)
The K4 Coordinating Committee and thereby the whole issues dealt with in the third pillar, draw on the work of the TREVI group. TREVI was set up as early as 1976 by the then 12 member states to counter terrorism and coordinate policing in the EC. All its work is based on intergovernmental cooperation, that means excluding the European Commission and the European Parliament. A whole book could be written on the work and impact of TREVI, I will therefore leave it at that and just stress that one should never see the work of justice and home affairs ministers and heads of government in terms of committees which are created and then abolished (although it is important to know the changing structures of the decision making processes). Their work has been ongoing, continuous and consistently an attack on people"s rights. Often, the same people sit in different committees even if the latters" name changes. Although structures change, the people and their ideas do not.
Migration, "Internal Security" and the myth of compensation
The interconnection between concepts of migration and security can also be seen through the similarity of Schengen and TREVI. In 1989, TREVI 92 was set up to specifically deal with "policing and security implications of the Single European Market" and to improve cooperation to "compensate for the consequent losses to security and law enforcement".
Schengen - free movement vs. policing 1 : 141
In the Schengen Implementation Agreement, which is popularly (and misleadingly) known as a Convention on free movement, only one (!) article deals with free movement. The other 141 deal with external border controls (restriction of movement), police cooperation, the SIS etc.. TREVI 92 has, in fact, worked closely together with the customs group (MAG 92) and the Ad Hoc Working Group on Immigration, where the idea of the European Information System was developed. "Freedom", in the European sense, is therefore not really freedom, but restriction. And this applies not only to refugees and migrants, but to EUropean citizens as well. The idea that the breakdown of borders leads to an increase in crime (for which there is absolutely no proof) and therefore requires "compensatory measures", implies that data is collected on everybody. Legal rights that ensure the protection of your private life, even the right to privacy in your own home, are severely undermined.
There"s an abundance of material on Schengen, this is, therefore again only a brief outline. Parallel to these informal policy making structures and a wealth of "ad hoc" groups springing up amongst EUropean security circles, there is Schengen. Originally set up by France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, later joined by Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece (now, the UK and Ireland are the only countries not fully signed up, although they are "opting in" to certain clauses), Schengen allegedly set out to abolish internal borders. As already mentioned, only one of the 142 articles deals with internal borders, the remaining articles concern themselves with policing immigration and asylum, drug trafficking, legal problems with police cooperation and external border control. As with TREVI and the Ad Hoc Working Group on Immigration, Schengen co-existed with the post-Maastricht K4 structure. With the Amsterdam coming into force, the Schengen acquis will be fully integrated into the EU framework.
The Treaty of Amsterdam and the High Level Working Group on Asylum and Migration
The most recent change to the whole structure of immigration, policing and judicial cooperation in the EU has been the coming into force of the Treaty of Amsterdam. Before anyone gets upset and frustrated about the fact that s/he doesn"t understand the text of the Amsterdam Treaty, is has to be said that "...the treaty is almost unintelligible, even to the reasonably seasoned observer" (SW Bulletin 7(3) May-June 1997). It basically changes the pillar structure, which was based on the Treaty on the European Community (first pillar) and the Treaty of the European Union (Maastricht - third pillar). This should mean that JHA issues will be transferred onto the first pillar and thereby in future be decided under the Community method, i.e. the European Parliament, the Commission and the Court of Justice will gain power over decisions. This however, is not the case.
Chapter 2 of the Amsterdam Treaty amends the old Title VI of the TEU (covering policing, customs and legal cooperation) and sees to a "progressive establishment of an area of freedom, security and justice". There"s a new title on free movement, immigration and asylum, which indicates the shift of these issues from the third (intergovernmental) to the first (community method) pillar. However, although the European Commission is given the right of initiative, the Council for Justice and Home Affairs Ministers will, for the first five years of the treaty, have to agree measures unanimously. Further, the European Parliament is only "consulted" (rather than having the right of co-decision).
The Treaty also integrates Schengen into the EU framework, which is a rather complicated task as a legal base has to be found for each Schengen provision.
Article C includes a Treaty commitment to the "repatriation of illegal residents" and the revised Title VI sets out "revised provisions on police and judicial cooperation in criminal matters". These include giving Europol operational powers and allowing "competent authorities" to operate in another member state. The revised Title VI also holds that "The Court of Justice shall have no jurisdiction to review the validity or proportionality of operations carried out by the police or other law enforcement agencies of a Member State or the exercise of responsibilities incumbent upon Member States with regard to the maintenance of law and order and the safeguarding of internal security."
Law, order and internal security includes all aspects of free movement, internal controls and checks, police operations, public order issues, alleged "illegal migrants" and refugees (including the centers in which they are held and the manner of their treatment and enforced deportation).
The general idea becomes clear: before the Council relinquishes any power, it wants to make sure that Fortress Europe really is in place. In the next five-year "transitional" period, Europol will become fully operational, a EUropean data system will be fully functional and the deportation machinery will be coordinated. There are already plans between Austria, Switzerland and Germany for common charter flights for deportation. Last, but not least, EUrope will use its "economic and political muscle" to force Third World countries to stop people from leaving in the first place.
The Austrian Strategy Paper
The first day the Austrian presidency took its seat on 1 July 1998, it launched a "Strategy Paper on migration and asylum policy". It was condemned by EU governments, the UNHCR and community-based non-governmental organisations alike. Although they withdrew the proposal, it was not abolished but pursued by other means:
A revised draft was produced for the Informal Justice and Home Affairs Council meeting in Vienna in October in 1998. After another revision the JHA ministers thought the strategy paper would be "a useful contribution to the work of the cross-pillar task force", which was set up on the initiative of the Netherlands in order to rescue the strategy paper.
The strategy paper proposes so-called Action Plans for six targeted countries. It says:
a model of concentric circles of migrant policy could replace that "of Fortress Europe"
The first circle is the EU, the second circle consists of the states aspiring to join the EU, i.e., Central and Eastern Europe (CEE countries). They have to be in line with the so-called first circle standards. The third circle encompasses the former Soviet Union (CIS), Turkey and North Africa, where the EU wants to institute "transit checks and combat facilitator networks". The really important sentence here is this:
intensified economic cooperation is linked to the fulfillment of their obligations that means these states, given their weak economic position and heavy dependency on trade exports, are forced to institute the border regime EUrope has instituted at its own borders already. The EU countries force their neighbours in the East and South to pass on the pressure to potential migrants on their own Eastern and Southern borders, thus moving the repression eastwards and delegating the responsibility and the cost for this repression to other state authorities.
The fourth circle is the "Middle East, China and black Africa", where the EU wants "eliminate" so-called "push factors" (reasons pushing people to move away from a place, as opposed to "pull factors", which are reasons - like the demand for cheap, illegalised and thus dependent labour in the EU - that pull people to move to a place). Also, "the extent of development aid" will be tied to their "cooperation".
Cross-pillar or Imperialist?
The ideas outlined above constitute the new "global approach" of the EU and "must incorporate world wide all the main regions of origin of immigrants" the strategy paper says. This is called cross-pillar, which means that instead of just using interior policies to stop migration into EUrope, first and second pillar economic, diplomatic and political pressure is being used to enforce EUrope"s ideas of a "global approach" onto the rest of the world, defining who is free to move, when to move and where to move. The authors of the report do not attempt to hide this new version of imperialism:
economic aid will have to be made dependent on visa questions, greater border-crossing..guarantees of readmission...
In other words, setting out the provisions to hinder people from entering the EU and making sure they can be easily deported if they manage to get in despite the barriers.
There is also the idea of "information campaigns". "The clear, targeted notification of potential immigrants about potential immigration management measures, which, from past experience, can itself have just as much effect as the actual measures themselves".
Fingerprinting (EURODAC)
In order to "guarantee repatriation", EU justice and home affairs ministers, police and security officials also think that
States with a particularly high potential of illegal emigrants must be induced to set up effective fingerprint files.
This language was too harsh for the EU member states, so they changed it to, States with a particularly high potential of illegal emigrants must develop effective systems which make it impossible to change the identity by changing place of residence.
Now what exactly could that be? All 15 member states agreed to the final provision.
The High Level Working Group on Asylum and Migration (HLWGAI)
These action plans described above would have to be worked out by somebody so it was decided at the General Affairs Council on 7-8 December1998, to set up the HLWGAI "to establish a common, integrated, cross-pillar approach targeted at the situation in the most important countries of origin of asylum seekers and migrants". The group consists of "high level officials" from each EU member state and the Commission. They targeted six countries: 1.Afghanistan/Pakistan 2.Albania (Kosovo) 3.Morocco 4.Somalia 5.Sri Lanka and 6.Iraq and the neighbouring regions, an action plan which had already existed. The informal working parties are headed by different EU member states. Roughly, the criteria seem to be that colonial countries are allocated to their so-called ex-colonies: UK for Sri Lanka, Spain for Morocco, and so forth.
During the German presidency, the Migrant Working Party was given the job of tackling (quote) "the increasing number of countries of origin (which) refuse to take back their own nationals". In order to do this, Germany wants the EU to use "its international political and economic muscle". It also wants to adopt an "international legal instrument" to allow the EU to determine a person"s country of origin. The job of fingerprinting the Third World was given to the Multidisciplinary Group on Organised Crime.
to be added: specifics of the country reports by High Level Group

Bank of England Raises Interest Rates by 0.25 Percentage Points to 4.5%
The global economic recovery is continuing. In the United Kingdom, official data and business surveys suggest that output growth remains around, or above, trend. Household spending, public consumption and investment have all grown strongly and the housing market remains buoyant. The labour market has tightened further.

Secretary-General's message on the International Day of Democracy and the Opening of The Doers of Democracy: a photo exhibition featuring projects of the United Nations Democracy Fund [delivered by Mr. Kassym-Jomart Tokayev Director-General, United Natio | United Nations Secretary-General
This year also served as a reminder that democracy cannot be exported or imposed from abroad; it must be generated by the will of the people and nurtured by a strong and active civil society. The world saw the truth of the saying that countries do not become fit for democracy; they become fit through democracy. Young people, above all, brought home this message. They championed the democratic ideal and now face the challenge of turning it into a working reality.
The same truths are borne out by another milestone this year -- the 20th anniversary of the massive transformation in Eastern Europe. Many of the region's countries are still in the early stages of their democratic passage. They know the painstaking work involved in building the rule of law, fostering transparency and accountability, and overhauling political and economic systems. They know the setbacks that can disappoint expectations, and the passion needed to keep moving forward. Their experiences provide important lessons.
The United Nations is there to support these efforts. The UN does more than any other single organization to strengthen democratic institutions and practices around the world. Experience has taught us, time and again, that democracy is essential to achieving our fundamental goals of peace, human rights and development. We know that all these must be underpinned by the will of the people -- by a strong and active civil society.
The photographs, artifacts and publications in this exhibition all come from initiatives funded by UNDEF. What you see here is just a small share of those projects -- and just a fraction of the work done every day by the courageous men, women and young people around the world who strive to uphold their rights and make the voice of their communities heard. On this International Day of Democracy, let us commit to doing all we can to support them. This exhibition is dedicated to their lifelong journey in democracy.

MOTORCYCLE - ON LINE VIDEO
I have been posting video footage onto Youube for just over 4 years now and the interest in them has been fantastic. Riders from all over the world have watched them, and of course made comment on them.
I have made friends and been encouraged by the feedback: ' Simon Weir BIKE Magazine - Enhanced Rider Assessment - Use of Video The clip on Youtube:- That's absolutely brilliant – well, the minimal display of rear obs isn't, but it's brilliant to see myself ride. I've not had that before and it's absolutely fascinating. Really rams home the points you made – they're the same things I'm looking at and thinking, faster, give it more space, late on line, where's the shoulder check?!!! What a good device! Thank you very much Simon '.
yellowbusguy has made a comment on Rider in front doing commentary . The pace seems fast for a rode of that type;here in the states this roads speed would probably be set around 45MPH or so. Seems very heavily travelled for a rural route. That said why the obssesion with passing everything in front of you regardless of the pace? I too hate being behind lorries, but if you hold the distance you can still see far enough to be comfortable. I enjoy these videos..makes one think about your own riding habits.
The ponit of this page is to encourage like mind people to link to this site. Check this site out from Canada:

Hes telling you truth AMD or Radeon sucked before but now they are good and much less montey then Intel/Nvidia stuff but thats personal opinion of every gamer so...
Do NOT get an AMD cpu for L2. For this game you need a CPU that is powerful in single core, and AMD cpu's suck balls at that. I believe L2 is not even using 2 cores...
Just get an unlocked Intel CPU, overclock it as much as you can and there you have it, best performance you can get in L2. For GPU, you can get an AMD card as it's considerably cheaper than nVidia and it really doesn't matter in L2.
why would anybody go ONLY for L2 this game is 10 year old and hes not probably gonna do only lineage on it even if he say so, so i would personally as i said would go for fx and radeon graphics, anyway if hes planning to buy right now pc hes probably planning to keep it for next lets say 3 years so its fine.
This is a good point. SSD for easy setup. Or Ram drive and redirect animation/textures folders to it for geeks.
As i said, if you have the money get an i5 (recommend 4690k), an ssd and whatever graphics card. If you get an FX you'll have something like 10 fps in mass pvp, if even that.
If you're interested in other games too, modern ones as well, get an AMD 290, they're pretty cheap nowadays and have more than enough performance for any game currently released.
yea i want to get this CPU and looking for good and cheap motherboard. I wont play in any other games l2 and SC2 but i guess for sc2 doesnt metter what computer ill have.
As a matter of fact, Intel CPU's perform considerably better in SC2 as well so there you have it, decision made.
and on h5 no matter what you have you will get starwars over time. But yeah its okay for sieges, mby 2nd hd to ssd for fraps if u want doing it. And y ssd for win + l2 is must

Why aren't we asking the panhandlers on every other street corner in West district too vacate? It's out of control and dangerous especially with the spread of Covid-19. What's the Sheriff's game plan? These people aren't homeless, they're opportunist looking for drug money.
Haha i thought the same thing. Mike Scott would be losing his mind if he drove down 41 and saw panhandling at every corner. Right or wrong, Captains would be having to answer for this. There are county ordinances against it and not to mention the obvious health issues. Maybe send deputy chance out there to fix the problem.
Just admit your true opinion and don’t cover it underneath some bs of it being a health issue. Gtfooh with that. Health issue really?! Have you looked around? The man asking for food and money at the corner is the least of your concern. Be more concerned with your Congress and senate approving billions to gender studies in other countries. Leave the panhandlers alone lol
Go take some meds. 😂 Holy crap dude. From a strictly local view, it’s a hazard and there’s a county ordinance against it and possible a state statute, which you might have known had you not jumped straight to the conspiracy of the federal government’s decision state of the country. Have to start at home. GFSF!
Idea- maybe you can patrol and investigate if these panhandlers are indeed in need or scammers. If in need help them and if scammers implement some good investigative skills and take care of it.
I didn’t know dude was a gender specific anymore. But now that you have established you are a Karen educate yourself before attempting to be a keyboard tough “gender natural”. GFC.
Because some of those panhandlers are deputies trying to make extra income. We, I mean they, can make upwards of around 40 bucks an hour!! Geesh!! Just sticking it into our own 401k to save for retirement. At least that's what I hear some do.....
Falkirk. I'm getting to know its late 19th-century officials quite well. It's all these newspaper reports of council proceedings I've been reading. Weird that. In a modern newspaper I can't think of anything less likely to attract my attention than the details of a council meeting.
It being the 19th century, beer and pubs crop up quite often. Usually discussing ways to control them and the lowlifes that hung around in them. Often prompted by the temperance nutcases who seemed intent on robbing the poor of any enjoyment they might have. You get much the same thing today, except nowadays it's usually doctors who are the killjoys.
A word of explanation first to explain what they're discussing in this article. The Forbes Mackenzie Act, or Licensing (Scotland) Act 1853 to give it its official name, introduced Sunday closing for pubs in Scotland. It had been pushed by a bunch of temperance loonies who saw it as a way of saving the working classes from themselves. I'm sure those working classes were overjoyed. So much so, that they tried to circumvent it whenever possible. As you'll read below.
"To the Sheriff of the Eastern District of Stirlingshire, and to the Provost and Magistrates of Falkirk. ' The Memorial of the Committee of the Falkirk Branch of the Evangelical Alliance,
"Respectfully Sheweth, - That, whereas Sabbath desecration prevails to a considerable extent in Falkirk and the vicinity, and whereas several of the forms of Sabbath-breaking involve a violation of the laws of the land, such as the unlawful selling of spirits on the Lord's Day, both in houses licensed and in those having no license for the sale of spirits, and the opening of shops on the Lord's Day for the sale of sweatmeats and fruit; and whereas such offences are fitted to exercise a most demoralising influence on the community,
"Your memorialists would respectfully crave the civil authorities to take all steps competent in the circumstances to check these these evils and to enforce the observance of the laws which prohibit traffic on the Lord's Day.
The Provost (referring to the petition from the Evangelical Alliance) said the Magistrates and Town Council had no force at their disposal to watch and look after regular public-houses.
Bailie Jones-I think the petition should be laid upon the table and read this day six months. (Laughter.)
Mr Hodge - I think it is our duty, at any rate, seeing these things take place, to paY attention to this petition. I have seen the scum of the population going in at these public-house doors, not for the purpose of taking out spirits, but going in and remaining there drinking.
Mr Hodge - It is spirts I am talking about. It is disgraceful to see them coming out of public-houses on Sabbath morning.

Need Scientific Info On Goldfish Memory Info - Goldfish Discussion - Kokos Goldfish Forum
November 29, 2006 in Goldfish Discussion
Ok, this is urgent,the outline is due tomarow.Please, I need some info on goldfish memory and senses. this site my only usefull source. All my books talk about care and only 1 gives even the slightest useful piece of info. Does anyone have ANY input?
Instead of waiting here for someone to give you the information you need, why don't you search the web? It would be a really good learning experience (which is usually what science fair projects are about) if you actually do the research yourself. If the books don't help, look for sources elsewhere. I did a quick search on google and came up with a few interesting sites, so I think perhaps you should put a little more effort into doing the project yourself before asking for answers to be given to you.
if by tonight you still can't find any sources, even on the web, i'll be more than happy to give you some websites.
The web!? Psh! You have to go old school and talk to your librarian at your local library. It's very easy to find fish/goldfish anatomy books and usually the librarian will just grab them off the shelf FOR you.
Aparently, our library is different. There arent many fish books at all,let alone goldfish anatomy. Weve asked, we searched all sorts of things on their online book list. The books we got were the best we could find
your petstore might carry some books on goldfish. my lfs does.
If you really REALLY get desperate... I guess you could wiki it.
Try looking up the Mythbusters episode. Apparently they did a test where they actually trained goldfish to swim a maze faster.. or something.
But look them up, hopefully there'll be something online. :/
I finnally found an e book on this cool site that tells you how to train your goldfish todo cool stuff,and it had some useful info. IT IS SO COOL!! Moe, the amazing soccer playing oranda...
Neat! I think I saw a video of him on youtube.
My fish just roll marbles back and forth. It's weird hearing the little *clink clink* at night.
What kind of marbles do you have, Nenn? Just the standard ones you pick up from a toy store?
Sounds cool!! Do you have a web url?
They had them at my LFS, they're a translucent blue (much nicer than playing marbles) and those are the ones I use in my barebottom tank. The first time I had them my pearlscale totally flipped out when he nudged one and it went rolling across the bottom!
Now he pushes them everywhere. *clink clink*
i'm glad you found yourself a good source. i hope you didn't take any offense in my comment. it's just being a teacher, it's frustrating when a student comes up and asks for help before having done anything to try and solve the problem themselves. it's just the best way to learn. it's difficult to learn if all the answers are handed to you.
let us know how the initial part of your science project goes!
The site is http://www.fish-school.com/catalog.htm
Its pretty cool, though I wish they wouldn't recomend a 10 gallon tank...
Oh and remember you can never prove an hypothesis, you can only support or reject it
And if you're able to show that goldfish foster world peace and win the Nobel Peace Prize, be sure to cite everyone here at Koko's.
Oh and if you come across anything describing how they communicate- especially in high vibrations and different length intervals- please let us know- Punch communicates with me over pleasure- satisfaction - and annoyance(when I am working on the tank and ignore him) - they have a definate communication process- the vibrations tend to be generated like the vibrations of a hair clipper =- except more intense and at varying intervals- I attempt at returning the process but cannot duplicate the speed, although when I have done so, he comes back with slower momentary vibration response- they have a communication process- more than we realize. It is possible to connect this to certain memory traitsm, not just Innate response- as I have shown various times he has the ability - and does- over - ride his natural instincts and responses to external factors - as is per his judgement call. they can altert their response habits as per their memory dictates- of fedar and as well trust.

It’s been a long cold winter for many of us. As we hibernate, we have a tendency to collect lots of things. Some of them to keep us warm, some to protect us from the elements and some just to keep us company. While they are nice to have in the winter, they can also keep us from experiencing the joys of spring. When you are in your down coat, you don’t notice how warm the breeze is. When you’re under an umbrella, you can’t always tell if it is actually raining and when you are on the couch with the shades drawn, watching TV, you don’t see or hear the activity outside- the people getting out and getting reconnected to the earth. Take some time this week to see where you have gotten into your comfort zone and forgotten the world outside. I’ve let magazines build up, collected movies to watch even put more food in the freezer. Now is the time to wrap up the winter sustenance phase and move forward into the cleaning out and reveling in life phase. The temperature is rising, the blood oranges are out and the pigeons are frisky. I’m going to get out there and enjoy it all. I hope you do too.
Take a look at the stunning piece of design from Artem Smirnov and Vladimir Panchenko. The Motorbike From Great Japan takes its aesthetic inspiration from the unique Japanese design spirit and elements of origami and the Samurai way of life. “The Japanese approach to design has always been original, which is the foundation of culture with its art of origami and the samurai spirit. The simplicity and sense of space, and today are recognized in the industrial design of the Japanese brands. But for some reason, this approach is now rarely used in the design of Japanese cars and motorcycles. It felt the impact of the European brands that impose their rules of the game, when an inexperienced user can not tell the Japanese product from the European. It’s time to go back to the roots and make Japan great again!”

Dear Pastor Andy: God and Forgiveness
God forgives all sins, but what about a broken covenant? I know God will forgive us our sins when we repent but what about if you break a covenant...such as getting remarried after a divorce...and you were the one being unfaithful...are you forgiven for committing adultery by getting married again?
After all... a marriage is a covenant between the couple and God...bringing them together as one flesh.
In terms of breaking covenants, the Israelites broke God's covenants time and time again, but the Lord never left them...though they did endure some trials during their time of getting back right with the Lord.
Remember the woman who was brought to Jesus in John 8:1-11? She was caught literally in the act of adultery. Jesus didn't condemn her, but notice He also told her to sin no more (or don't do this again)...and she was forgiven.
The Apostle Paul also talks on remarriage in 1 Corinthians. Basically, he suggests that the "unmarried" (thought to be those who were divorced) should remain unmarried. But if they're burning with lust, then it's best that they marry. But Paul also says that your new spouse should also be a believer in the faith.
But it's not in remarriage that you're forgiven, nor is the making of a new covenant to cover up the past broken one a means of setting things right. God demands your heart...He always has. And the fact that you're even asking this question shows that you have every intention of giving it fully to Him.
I would suggest though, you and your fiance' engaging in pre-marital counseling by your pastor/priest before marrying, and keeping a Christian counsel throughout your marriage with whom you may consult should doubt or the temptation to cheat ever again arise.

More About Dice Salary Predictions
Where does this estimate come from?
Dice predicts salary ranges based on the job title, location, and skills listed in individual job descriptions. In addition, we factor in the five most common skills associated with this job title. Our proprietary machine-learning algorithm uses more than 600,000 data points to make its predictions. To get the most accurate prediction of the salary you might earn, customize the prediction in your Dice profile. Actual salary offered by employer may vary.
How was this salary estimate calculated?
Dice's predictive salary model is a proprietary machine-learning algorithm. Unlike many other salary tools that require a critical mass of reported salaries for a given combination of job title, location and experience, the Dice model can make accurate predictions on even uncommon combinations of job factors. The model does this by recognizing patterns in the more than 600,000 salary data points to infer how much each factor - job title, location, experience, education, and skills - will impact the salary.

A Mother's Desire Rekindled
By Marlene Naanes Staff Writer, August 4, 2006
When she fled Cuba 46 years ago, Claire Weinbach left something priceless behind. A Holocaust survivor who knew what it was like to live in fear, Weinbach left Havana after Fidel Castro seized power. As a child, she survived French concentration camps, and didn't want to live in Cuba in a time of uncertainty. She and her husband Abraham took their 5-year-old son and infant daughter with only the clothes on their backs and returned to Europe, hoping to wait out Castro. But a piece of themselves remained in Cuba: the daughter they had buried four years earlier.

Mothers' Mistakes Become Daughters' Legacy
By John Freeman Special Correspondent, March 10, 2002
Song of the Water Saints. Nelly Rosario. Pantheon. $23. 256 pp. A dozen years ago, Julia Alvarez captured the experience of Dominican immigrants as never before with her novel How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accent. Since then, an exciting wave of authors has evoked the lives of Dominican emigres, the latest of whom is Brooklyn-based Nelly Rosario. In her debut novel, Song of the Water Saints, Rosario crafts a lyrical portrait of three spirited Dominican women. The story opens in 1916, a tumultuous year in Dominican history as American forces occupy the island, collecting on government loans and harassing locals.

Kowloon's Hip Newer Hotels Give An Edge To Tsim Sha Tsui
Mar 30, 2013, 12:41pm EDT |
That's an apt description of the Ritz-Carlton in Hong Kong, which claims to be the tallest hotel in the world. You check in close to the stars on the 102nd floor and can work out in a gym several stories up overlooking the cityscape as ferries cross the harbor. One sight I'll never forget is window washers balanced on a scaffold just on the other side of the glass while I was jogging on a treadmill. They nodded but did not wave.
The Ritz-Carlton sports a sky-high bar on the 118th (!) floor where you can enjoy cocktails alfresco while taking in the views of Victoria Harbour. If you're on a corporate expense account and/or traveling on business, you may very well want to try one of the club rooms, where you get access to a lounge for meetings, PCs and all your meals. Perhaps best of all for hurried travelers, the Ritz-Carlton is just above the Kowloon station, where you can hop on the airport express to get to your next Asian destination.
It's too bad the Ritz-Carlton in central Hong Kong fell victim to the wrecking ball years ago, but the new Kowloon property that opened two years ago in Kowloon's booming metro goes a long way in making up for the loss.
Just next to the Ritz-Carlton, the W Hotel opened three years ago, Starwood's first entrée into China for the brand. Now that the W brand got its start in China via Hong Kong, I see that more W hotels are opening soon in the Mainland, specifically Guangzhou, Beijing and Shanghai.
The W has all the usual five-star amenities such as signature restaurants, a blissful spa and even a roof-top pool, and excels in a hip style that fits in with the city's growing reputation as a tech and startup scene.
The W brand name is playfully reinforced throughout the property, most memorably with its whatever/whenever phone feature for guests with questions about well, whatever.
With its convenient location above the Kowloon transit center and the adjoining upscale shopping complex Elements, the Kowloon-side W hotel and the Ritz make for good meeting spots for jet-set travelers before they rush off to check in downstairs for their next flight.
One grand hotel built over the Kowloon waterfront that really hasn't changed all that much -- and doesn't need to -- is the Intercontinental Hong Kong. Perhaps the best thing about this hotel, which originally opened in 1980 as the Regent, is the port-side view from your rooms. From the comfort of your bed, you can feel that you are on a ship as you spot landmarks on the opposite coast such as HK convention center in Wanchai.
Brunch on weekends at the Intercontinental's harbour-side restaurant is especially popular, crowded by locals and international visitors alike in the panoramic views from three-story high windows as much as the endless selections of dishes. If you want to indulge, try sampling fine French cuisine created by chef Alain Ducasse at the 1-Michelin star Spoon.
If you're lucky enough to have some down time during your international travels, be sure to the head to the hotel's urban oasis, an outdoor swimming pool that nearly blends in with the harbour. The presidential suite comes with its own outdoor pool and a large outside terrace perfect for business gatherings.
From the Intercontinental, it's a 10-minute scenic stroll along the promenade to the Star Ferry pier for Hong Kong island.
Before leaving Kowloon, it's worth checking out the remodeled, high-design Mira Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. When I stayed there recently, the place was bustling with fashion-istas in town to showcase their garments and accessories. There wasn't an empty room in the place. The hotel may not be one of the top international brands, but the service and accommodations here are world class -- not to mention a gigantic, top-floor ballroom without those get-in-the way pillars and on a lower level, an infinity-edge swimming pool.
Let's not forget to mention that the Mira is in a great location for shopping, if you're into that past-time. Certainly I saw lots of guests here laden down with shopping bags. For years, Kowloon was where you stayed if you were doing business in the garment trade. Now it's on the upswing as an alternative to Hong Kong's luxury hotels in Central.
No matter which side, I can't wait to go to Hong Kong again -- and in fact I'm going again this April for our Silicon Dragon forum at Cyberport (it just happens to be on the Hong Kong island side).

NPS SPED Bootcamp
NPS Special Education Certification Bootcamp
The Norman Public School District is recruiting candidates for a Special Education Certification Boot Camp, a program that allows individuals who meet certain criteria to become certified to teach special education. Teachers who serve students with special needs are in high demand. While special education teachers typically earn more than traditional teachers, positions have been difficult to fill due to statewide teacher shortages.
The program is designed for individuals who are not currently certified to teach but have an undergraduate degree outside of the education field and an interest in working with students who have special needs. Qualified candidates also should have an interest in working in Norman Public Schools.
Special shot for student with special needsA special shot for a student with special needs. Lainy Fredrickson took the country by storm when she scored a basket in a varsity game for Norman High Friday night. It's been a whirlwind for her ever since.
Boot camp classes will be held March 24 through June 24
Fridays from 6 to 9 p.m.
*At the conclusion of the boot camp, participants will be required to complete 18 hours of graduate courses at an accredited university.
Following the initial boot camp classes, participants will be eligible to be considered for a vacancy in the district and, if selected, the individual can concurrently work in the district while they complete their graduate coursework. Participants that are hired by the district also will receive a $1,500 signing bonus. The program offers an opportunity for individuals who have a passion for students with special needs to quickly transition into teaching and earn a salary while completing their higher education coursework.

To compound the problem the media loves to report negative stories rather than positive stories - murders, scandals etc. Additionally the media treat suspects as guilty until proven innocent rather than the other way round and people tend to remember the initial headlines more than the follow up of the case. Sikhs are easily identified so it's very easy for the layman to get a distorted view

Courses | vodkashootsyou
For any students interested in AIFS St. Petersburg, here is a review of each course I am taking this semester. Students are required to take an intensive Russian course, which translates to 6-9 American credits. You complete a placement test during orientation, and may end up in Beginner I, Beginner II, Intermediate I, Intermediate II, Advanced I, or Advanced II. These classes meet for 3 hours a day, Monday through Wednesday, and 1.5 hours on Thursday.
Then you may choose one, two, or three elective courses (you need at least one to register as a full-time student, which keeps your student visa valid). Electives are in taught in English and generally cover Russian politics, culture, religion, society, literature, and history. They only meet once a week, mostly on Fridays (when there are no language lessons), and last 1.5-2 hours. If you are an advanced Russian speaker and would feel comfortable in an all-Russian classroom, you may also choose from the university's more extensive Russian course offerings.
Students are usually concerned about the difficulty of classes, and it should be said up front that the program really wants you to get out of the classroom and explore the culture. While language classes are rigorous (any level above total beginner is conducted almost entirely in Russian), electives tend to have little to no homework, do not require research or group projects, meet once a week, and have only a midterm and a final exam. Electives are there to support an understanding of the culture you are experiencing, not keep you in your dorm.
Probably the only difficult adjustment for Americans is that even the smallest elective classes are conducted lecture-style, with very little student participation expected. One important thing to note about grading: exam grading, and especially essay grading, seems very arbitrary. Make sure that you only include information that the teacher mentioned in lecture. The professors are only looking for one right answer. Extraneous information is not welcome, in many cases simply because the professor doesn't know enough English to understand what your tangent is about. While this does prevent slackers from bullshitting their way through questions, it also hurts good students who were taught to provide critical analyses instead of "regurgitating."
Grades range from 1 (fail/F) to 5 (excellent/A), but anything below a 3 (average/C) is more or less unheard of.
Language course: Russian 203 Intermediate III
Instructors: Viktoria Gorbenka and Yevgenia
I am not yet sure how this course will appear on my transcript. Language levels here at IMOP (the international branch of SPb State Polytechnic) don't always correspond exactly to those in the United States. The exact level is determined later in the semester by the professor, who is best able to assess where the class is at as a whole. Every class starts out with a bit of review, which the professor uses to gauge the students' proficiency and plan future lessons. My group went over basic dialogues, revisited concepts in grammar (especially irregulars), and summarized some short stories.
Because I have no formal experience with Russian (I self-taught starting last semester using the following methods), I would consider myself at the bottom of my class. Most other intermediate students have had 1-2 years of Russian already, so I have a lot of catching up to do. Although it will be more difficult than the class I tested into initially, I would rather be challenged at the bottom than bored at the top.
Language courses are taught in a kind of tag-team fashion: one instructor for conversation, one instructor for grammar. I'm not entirely clear on which is which, because every class inevitably involves so much of both. Sometimes they alternate every other day, or every other week. The purpose of this is so you don't become dependent on one instructor's voice or speaking style for comprehension. It's a good concept, but can be difficult in practice as it sometimes seems that the two instructors don't always seem to be operating on the same syllabus.
Elective 1: Political Science/Sociology 311 (Contemporary Russian Life)
Professor: I. Kuzhmin is a riot. Everyone in the program should take at least one course with him (he teaches almost every history/politics course). He wears a Communist Party pin to class, candidly discusses Russian racism and xenophobia ("you call Obama black, when really he is not and a Russian might say he is chocolate"), and makes sure you keep up with current events.
About: This class would more helpfully be entitled "Russia 101," although previous knowledge of the region's political history are extremely useful. It is very much a "social studies" class, integrating geography, cultural trends, social issues, demographics, recent military conflicts, and politics. While you're not going to delve into the "Russian soul," this class is enlightening in the sense that it can help explain some of the otherwise inexplicable experiences you will periodically run into.
Elective 2: Religion/Sociology 319 (The Russian Orthodox Church)
Professor: M. Chumovitskaya clearly knows her subject incredibly well—so well in fact, that each class consists of her straight lecturing to the class (often with no notes). While impressive, this does get very monotonous, very quickly.
About: I had to take this class to fulfill my home institution's religion requirement (as did many of my classmates), although I was mostly interested in taking it to round out what I learned as an intern at the Museum of Russian Icons. Some students had difficulty with the subject matter, because early Russian history and Orthodox religion rarely if ever appear in American curricula. That aside, we were often provided with a set of printed notes at the beginning of each class, so everyone automatically has a failproof study guide.
Elective 3: Literature 307 (19th Century Russian Literature)
Professor: T. Shustrova is an amazing professor. Her knowledge of Russian literature is incredibly comprehensive, from the plots of individual stories to the larger historical narratives into which they fit. She is probably the most engaging of all the professors here in that she encourages the class to ask questions and contribute during the standard lectures.
About: This course begins with "classical" Russian literature, i.e. from the Kievan Rus period. What I really love about this class is that the literature is discussed in the context of the culture and historical events that produced it. For each work, we spent the better part of the class reviewing the author's life, any relevant ideological or political movements, and influential contemporary events. Russian literature is intimidating and incomprehensible to most people (I had a terrible time with Dostoevsky in high school), because it makes little sense without an understanding of the audience to whom the author "addresses" the work. Most of the books are available from the AIFS office mini-library, or just online (they're old enough to be in the public domain). Here are the works our class covered: The Song of Igor's Campaign, Eugene Onegin, A Hero of Our Times, Dead Souls OR Diary of a Madman, Crime and Punishment, Anna Karenina OR War and Peace, and Uncle Vanya.

Flood Damage Prevention in 5 steps
Flood Damage, News, Water Damage
WRG Team on April 22, 2016
Spring in South Florida may be the most difficult season to prepare for. Hurricanes and tropical storms are regular features nowadays and property managers should expect floods and heavy winds. It is no secret that the potential for flood damage is great and your most challenging task will be to minimize the effects of the disaster.
Statistically, 100-year floods have a 1 percent chance of occurring in any given year. But that 1 percent could happen two years in a row. Maybe more than once in the same year. While spring weather may be unpredictable, being prepared will help to ensure a smooth passage, no matter what Mother Nature brings.
Here are some tips that will help you prevent major flood damage to your property:
• Secure all doors and windows: They are extremely vulnerable to flying objects. Shutters and plywood will provide additional protection.
• Secure loose objects: Objects like trash cans or lawn furniture can be dangerous projectiles during a storm.
• Play it safe: Gas lines can be affected during a storm so it's best to switch off the tank before a storm.
• Clear downspouts, gutters and drains of leaves and debris to avoid clogging.
• Keep with you the following items on hand for emergency repairs: towels, blankets, rags, roll of plastic, plywood and lumber, roll roofing. These will help you to protect objects from moisture.
Being cautious will save you money and safeguard your property from an unexpected event.
Be sure to check out our CAM continued education classes (CEU´s) as they will provide you the sufficient expertise and knowledge to deal with all the facets of property management. If your property is affected by the weather change or is hit by a natural disaster, our water restoration team has the ability to respond to an emergency in 40 minutes or less. We can restore your property by repairing the damages in a timely and efficient manner.

Pet Avoidance Test.
Durante on Mon Jun 01, 2009 4:14 pm
I got a Ret pally to help me with a test today to try to figure out the baseline parry, dodge, and block rates for our pets. He was gearless except for his weapon, which didn't have any hit or expertise on it, nor does he get any from glyphs or talents. Here are the results.
http://wowwebstats.com/orsnsiizxmjes?a=Gx68000000114830a#abilities
Miss: 119 5.6%
Parry: 111 5.2%
Dodge: 143 6.8% (Note: My pet was speced into Pet Barding, providing an extra 2% dodge. This test would have shown ~4.8% without it)
Block: 102 4.8%
Hit: 1467 (Note: Blocks seem to be added to this category)
Crit: 275 13% (Note: My pet was speced into Grace of the Mantis for 4% reduced chance to be crit)
What do we get from this? It seems like our pets probably have a 5% chance to parry, block, and be missed by a same level mob or player, since that's the default for a player and these numbers are all close enough to reasonable assume pets probably use the same game logic.
In hindsight, I wish I had had him use a weapon with a faster attack speed to get a larger sample size for the same time, but he had max weapon skill for 2h swords and not unarmed, and that was the weapon he had on hand.
Soon I'll try to repeat a similar test, but with agility buffs on my pet to see if it gains dodge from Agi. Figuring out the rate that they gain dodge should let us work backwards and figure out what their base dodge is.
Re: Pet Avoidance Test.
Nordh on Tue Jun 02, 2009 12:24 am
13% crit with a 4% reduction to be crit? Shouldn't that have been about 1%?
Doug on Tue Jun 02, 2009 12:48 am
What was the Pally's base chance to crit?
Durante on Tue Jun 02, 2009 1:02 am
Nordh wrote: 13% crit with a 4% reduction to be crit? Shouldn't that have been about 1%?
Not sure exactly. He gets 8% from talents, and his weapon has some Agi and Crit rating on it. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets almost exactly 4% crit chance from his weapon, meaning pets would have a 5% chance to be crit, just as you would expect.
Doug on Tue Jun 02, 2009 3:16 am
I would imagine his overall crit rating would have had to been 17% not so (talents +weapon + base)? Isn't the 5% just a flat chance for mobs to crit equal level players, surely a player's crit chance on equal level players is just the flat crit chance, I woulda thunk.
The fact that it looks like 5% 5% 5% is the magic number it would appear that it might have something to do with GC's allusion to an odd implementation of pet stats. this seems to suggest that any overhaul would be a substantial operation which may or may not be beneficial to pet tanking depending where GC stands on this issue.
Again 3.0 suggests to me (very strongly I might add, if you haven't guessed it already) that there is a recognition that pet tanking is ultimately the only real solution but that the devs realise that the community may be slow (to put it mildly) to warm to the idea. Any stat change will show us where he falls on this.
Be that as it may, one of the major issues facing the community as a whole right now is Hybrid/Pure under the Bring the Player not the Class regime. Everybody becoming hybrids really is the only way forward to my mind, and with luck hunters may be the first to get there (we already have the penalty anyhow).
Alternatively GC may just revert the whole notion and scrap pets as viable tanks with it, there are many ways he could but I'd warrant it would be even worse from a development POV.

“For a lot of people, converting a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA makes sense. But there are times when a Roth conversion may not be the best option.” Renee Chamberlain
By Renee Chamberlain
Converting a regular IRA to a Roth is, most of the time, a fantastic option for federal employees and retirees. A Roth conversion results in retirement funds going into an account that gives you tax-free growth and withdrawals. One advantage of a Roth is that it is currently the only tax-advantaged retirement account that doesn’t have required minimum distributions (RMDs).
However, there are a few disadvantages of Roth IRAs and certain circumstances when this conversion won’t work well for Feds. An obvious disadvantage of a Roth conversion is that all federal and state income taxes are due in full in the conversion year. Also, an IRA owner may lose some tax-deferred growth in their traditional account without gaining more valuable benefits by converting to a Roth.
Suppose you’ve been encouraged to do a Roth conversion. In that case, it’s a good idea to consult your retirement income advisor before deciding, particularly if you find yourself in any of these situations:
Your taxes are likely to decrease.
Typically, converting to a Roth is not justified if the IRA owner’s marginal tax bracket is predicted to be lower in the future. While advisors often make the case that taxes are more likely to increase than decrease, it is still best to convert when you are in a lower tax bracket. That usually happens when your income dips. You could find yourself with fewer tax obligations after leaving service, meaning a Roth conversion would have negligible benefits. For example, say you plan to move from where you’ve made your IRA contributions to a state with lower or no income taxes. For instance, say you are a federal employee who has changed positions or has retired from federal service. If that is your situation, you might wait to convert until you’ve established residency in that other state. That way, you’ll avoid state taxes.
You need your IRA money right now.
A Roth conversion carries the biggest bang for the buck when the account is allowed to grow untouched for several years. If you need that money sooner than five years after conversion, switching to a Roth doesn’t add up because your account won’t have enough time to grow.
You lack the cash to pay your tax bill.
If you’re thinking about Roth conversion, be sure you have enough liquid assets to pay the taxes so you won’t have to tap into your retirement accounts. As mentioned, the income taxes on a Roth conversion are due during the same year of that conversion. Paying that tax bill with IRA assets will decrease the amount of the IRA that can grow tax-free.
A Roth conversion could cause you to lose tax credits.
When you convert to a Roth, your income for that year increases. Depending on your situation, that bump in revenue could cause you to exceed income thresholds for certain tax credits and deductions. You would be wise to talk to a tax specialist about the long-term tax implications a conversion might have.
You may not want to convert if you own a traditional IRA, are over 70.5, and make Qualified Charitable Distributions.
A traditional IRA owner, 70.5 or older, is allowed under IRS to donate up to $100,000 of assets per year from that IRA to one or more charities. You can then have your donations apply towards your annual Required Minimum Distribution. While you will not receive a charitable deduction for tax purposes, you won’t include the TSP withdrawal as part of your income. For some people, this can be a significantly efficient tax reduction strategy.
On the other hand, Roth IRA owners do not benefit from Qualified Charitable Distributions. For this reason, a traditional IRA owner may choose not to convert all their traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs. Instead, the owner may want to convert only some of their traditional IRAs but not all of them.
You have high out-of-pocket medical expenses.
Current law allows you to deduct unreimbursed medical expenses if the total costs exceed a threshold. If a person has above-average medical expenses, the deductible expenses may reduce or, in some cases, eliminate taxable income. However, if all the funds are in a Roth IRA and withdrawn, those withdrawals are not included in income. If used to pay medical expenses, there is no deduction.
If the withdrawn money comes from a traditional IRA (taxable income) and is used to pay qualified medical expenses, those costs can be deductible if they exceed the threshold. You and your tax expert will need to run the numbers to see if Roth’s benefits will offset your lost deductions.
Bottom line: In many instances, converting to a Roth from a traditional IRA is a wise course of action for federal employees. It would help to discover more about potential pitfalls and tax consequences. Before converting your traditional IRA to a Roth, you should consult a qualified financial professional with experience in conversions and a thorough knowledge of potential tax issues. If you’d like a “second set of eyes” to review your situation, or you need help with any other federal benefits, please reach out to me. I specialize in helping government employees get the most from their amazing benefits, and I love to help.

Expert warns of "billion dollar" driverless gap | Smart Highways Magazine: Industry News
Tags: autonomous vehicles, business models, driverless vehicles, maas, mobility as a service
A former director of the car hire company Dollar Thrifty is warning that the business plan for driverless taxis may not stack up.
Consultant Maryann Keller, who spent years on Wall Street advising the automotive industry, has blogged on LinkedIn questioning Uber's, and similar companies', apparent plans to replace drivers with autonomous vehicles.
Calling the company's present model "brilliant" because it takes a proportion of a fare for private citizens using their own cars as taxis, thus avoiding vehicle depreciation, maintenance expenses and insurance, she asks how that will work with autonomous cars that eliminate the people who shoulder the responsibility for the majority of vehicles.
"Having spent twelve years as a Board Member of Dollar Thrifty, the car rental company, I am well aware of the capital and operational investments required to manage a fleet of a hundred thousand or more vehicles," she writes. "And those needs don't change even when the cars are driverless. In fact, the car rental model approximates what ride-sharing on a large scale requires.
"Cars, whether autonomous or not, cost a lot of money which has to be paid to the manufacturer before they go into a fleet. A small fleet of 100,000 vehicles at $40,000 per unit amounts to $4 billion that would have to be paid by some entity."
She asks who will invest to own these vehicles, especially because it is so different to the one currently run by the likes of Uber.
"The autonomous car advocates have focused on whiz-bang technology and the ability to summon transportation with a tap on the app," she concludes. "But the economics of autonomous cars might limit their appeal only to major metro areas… They are, after all, cars that have to be acquired, serviced, repaired, insured and depreciated thereby transforming the asset light balance sheet of an app company into something more akin to that of a rental car business."

I’ve been putting off writing this up for some time. Why? Because everything I put down on paper feels empty compared to the actual experience, because each moment and emotion described feels shallower than the reality, an indignity, an untruth.
Sunrise, clear skies
Yet, I was one of those fortunate enough to witness the universe lock in to a moment of perfection and the experience touched me. Deeply.
During the days following the event I did little other than describe it as ‘amazing’, which is pretty nondescript, bland even. I couldn’t come up with anything better. My senses were pricked and I was filled with awe for the universe, and yet I was somewhat dumbed.
So what happened? Time to start finding my words.
Wrapping up the pre-eclipse party just as dawn breaks
At around 5.30AM on 14th November 2012 I made my way from base camp at the Eclipse 2012 festival up in Far North Queensland Australia, back past music stages where I’d recently bounced to Fat Freddy’s Drop and later stomped about to a DJ I can’t recall, stages that were now winding down. It was the first break from beats we would have in a whole week of celebrations. Respect the moment and the magic. Instead, birdsong was the gathering call.
Ravers, families and a man dressed in a mask and gown gathered on the hill by the Moon Stage as the sun rose, warming the dusty ground and the bones of people who had not stayed up to party, sleepy bodies re-awaking for this unique moment in time. Against a pinky orange sky, a little girl of maybe two snuggled into her father’s cuddle whilst the man in the mask started to sing out in monotone. He raised his face and stretched out his arms to the rising golden orb.
People start to make their way to the viewing spots
Sun worshipper
Crowds start to gather for the eclipse
And then came the moon, crossing in front of the sun, starting at the top left, a creeping blackness.
The first quarter passed quickly but then time slowed down and the moon seemed to stick on a partial cover up. I took off my glasses and looked around at everyone else. Hoards of people, crowded up against makeshift fencing, creating silhouettes on the hillside. A raft of upturned faces standing, sitting, lying on a sea of festival dust, eyes protected by paper solar safe shades. Some people headed away from the crowds in search of a private observation spot.
By now all festival stages had hushed, completely, and other than quieting birdsong, an occasional charged ‘whoop’ or a monotone ‘ooooh’ from the sun god worshipper, the world started to silence.
Each minute that the moon moved closer to total cover-up brought with it a drop in temperature. I shivered and wrapped myself up in a jumper. I put my safety glasses back on and stood still with this collective of people who all seemingly had the same intention to watch this process unfold. Occasionally someone shuffled about but mostly people, having found places to perch, were still, some having resigned themselves to the fact that they would probably not be sharing the eclipse experience with their closest buddies. Finding anyone in these crowds would be a considerable mission, one that might take away from actually taking in the event. No, sit still, let things unfold. Observe. (And be glad that you weren’t one of the ones that woke up mid-morning and wondered ‘Have I missed the eclipse?’).
It became dark. The moon was now firmly between us and the sun and the birds fell silent.
And then, in a flash of sunny brilliance, it all locked into place. Light shone out of the sides, bright rays crowning a ball of the deepest black. We took our glasses off. I started with my limited ‘amazing’ exclamations and listened to equally immature and breathy responses that only awe can generate. And lots of cheering. This wasn’t a film, hell no! How does life do this? How is our world so damn beautiful?
Lock in
I felt comforted by this vivid reminder that there are far bigger things going on in our world, forces that we try to understand yet still contain mystery, patterns that can be predicted but only up to a point, beauty that generates a moment of wonder shared, appreciated by a humanity hotchpotch.
So much was going through my mind – my life events, choices and hopes – passing through in a moment of clarity and understanding. It all made sense: it didn’t really matter. And, yet somehow, in relation to everything else and everyone else, it did.
Lie back… watch the sun re-emerge… choose whether to join the post-eclipse party or retreat to camp and finally go to sleep
Just over two minutes later and the moment of magic was broken as the sun and moon moved out of alignment, and we were back to reality. The light and warmth returned, the birds started to sing once again and the doof doof of the party started afresh.
Days later I still carried the magic with me, and months later the memory can still evoke a stomach flip and an utterance of ‘amazing’. Because it truly was amazing. Even the dismissiveness of a self-proclaimed eclipse king has done little to dampen my wonder.
And so I may yet become an eclipse chaser. But, would I get that same sense of awe, that absolute natural high from repeating the experience in another setting? Would it not, like any repeat experience, lack the magic of the first time? I’m hesitant.
The next total solar eclipse takes place in 2015 and is visible from Iceland, Europe, North Africa and Northern Asia whereas if I’m still Oz-side, I’ll have to wait until 2028. Might I see you there?

What to pack for a festival in the outback
Mid day water spray
Outback or bush, call it what you like, this would be the remotest, driest, hottest festival that I’d ever been to and unlike some travels where spontaneity keeps the magic alive, this needed planning. At least a little.
Event organisers emailed out a survival guide a few weeks before the start date of 10th November 2012, warning of bugs and beasties and dangerous drop access roads, of shrivel-inducing temperatures and complete communication cut-off.
This wasn’t a festival for pussycats.
Instead it would be a moment for thousands of wiry revellers, eclipse chasers, festival die-hards, musicians, DJs and artisans to unite. A seven day festival of music and workshops, of crafting and consciousness building, of stomping feet, raised hands and banging heads, a seven day festival created around the total solar eclipse visible within Far North Queensland, Australia.
Me and my crew were nearly ready. One final stock up and then we’d start the journey inland from Cairns, away from city structure into a landscape of termite mounds and tracks that led to houses a million miles from anywhere else.
So what did we bring? What might work for you next time the eclipse festival fever grips Australia again in 2028? Or whatever hot and humid festival that might be coming up shortly?
Essentials
Drinking water. Lots. We each got through about 4 litres a day. Onsite water was not considered safe to drink so we brought what looked like a ridiculous amount and it only just lasted.
Water sprayers/misters. Handheld are fine but the full on backpack, gardening maintenance style were best. And fun. And in demand. Spray and dance and stay safe and hydated.
Sunscreen. Far North Queensland heat and full on rays need a little thought.
Sunglasses. Super bright light. Some hangovers. Sensitivity.
Longlasting snacks. Nuts and other nutritious, energy giving nibbles.
First aid kit with all the basics including antiseptic cream and plasters/bandaids. Obvious.
Ear plugs. The music never stops (apart from during the actual eclipse, so that’s maybe an hour of quiet in a whole week).
Eye mask. Days and nights get a little mixed up and who knows when you want or need some shut-eye?
Tent, sleeping mat and a sleeping bag liner/sheet. Make sure your tent has plenty of ventilation, or do as some people did and only set up the inner tent.
Desireable
Tarpaulin. A friend lent this to us and it provided an extra layer of amazing sun protection over both tents whilst also marking our tenting territory.
Cool box/Eski. Ice available on site meant cold drinks and a longer life for fresh food. And every Aussie seems to travel with an Eski. Maybe if I was Australian this would be up there as an essential item.
Face/dust mask/scarf of some sort. Dust got everywhere. You learnt to live with the constant dirty taste it in your mouth, of a layer coating your teeth (and everything else).
Alcohol/cigarettes. Both could be bought at the festival but prices were a little inflated and most people came suitably stocked. The same was true for all other poisons.
Baby/wet wipes. Crawling in to bed having wiped off some of the dust layers was more than a luxury.
Electrolytes. We brought a big tub of GatorAid and although I can’t stand the stuff, I needed it to replace all those salts lost through dancing and dehydration. We stuck it in water bottles and brought it along on daytime missions into the festival.
Luxury
Solar shower. Yep. Although they offered $5 showers on site (outdoor but with privacy), having our own rig meant that once a day I had about five minutes of feeling dust free and clean. It was wonderful.
Cooking gear. The festival didn’t actually allow open flames and the discovery of our cooking gear could have led to us being kicked off site, yet it saved us some money and meant mornings could still start with a percolated coffee. What we soon realised was that there were so many great eating spots serving great quality feeds at decent prices that cooking at camp wasn’t actually quite as desirable as we expected.
Parasol. I carried mine with me everywhere, a plain green thing. Other’s carried theirs everywhere and I realised my idea of a parasol was entirely unoriginal and everyone else’s were much more beautiful and decorative. But functionwise? They all did the job.
Light sabers, wigs and glow masks. And face paints. Even if we transported a broken light saber all the way from New South Wales to Far North Queensland, it still formed part of an essential festival fancy dress kit. Okay, maybe not essential. But adds to the fun.
Fairy lights and decorations to create home. I’m a Cancerian so maybe my want to nest wherever I base myself was realised through these little camp set-up pleasures. Others clearly have this down to an art.
Proper pillow. Some people would scoff but few people complain when they get to lay their head down on a comfy pillow rather than a squished together, hard pile of clothes. I slept beautifully, through doof and human traffic. I’m sure the pillow helped some.
Change of clothes and pillow cases. Clean, dust free stuff saved for near the end would have been amazing. Instead we slept in our own dirt and dust. Ah well.
Anything I’ve forgotten to mention? That I should know about for next time?

I should be at a trance party, so what am I doing here?
Some day time revellers keep going at the rave (photo: Carl Maybry©)
IT’S FRIDAY AND I SHOULD be in Uyuni with new friends partying at a windpowered goa-trance festival on the Salt Flats outside of Uyuni in Bolivia, but I’m ill. Another bout of food poisoning has crippled me.
I let my friends know that I can’t come. A day on the bus followed by a weekend of all-nighter hedonism when I’m spinning out and have only just stopped puking? Not a great idea. But I’m gutted.
My day comprises of sleeping and Skype chats. It’s taking me ages to do anything. My eyes are heavy so after my lunchtime snack of cough medicine and probiotics, I end up snoozing some more.
One of my friends drops me a message to say that a local told him ‘the raves out on the Salar de Uyuni aren’t all that great anyway’. Momentarily I feel better but then I look at pictures of the salt flats, imagine 180° of starry sky and I’m back to frustrated envy.
I venture out of the hostel for the first time in a couple of days. Destination: pharmacy. I need to stock up on potent cough syrup. Two more bottles, the doctor reckons, that’s at least another week of codeine stupor. I walk slowly with consideration; I am spinning out and not totally sure that I won’t faint.
The doctor has banned me from eating out, despite it often being cheaper, so I make myself a package soup and tart it up with some vegetables. Hopefully this time the food will stay down. It doesn’t.
I don’t have the energy to be my social self and initiate conversation with all the new people in the hostel, but I chat a little with the owner’s son. Spanish practise. He’s not feeling well either, although it’s definitely something different. His Bolivian belly is resistant to the food and water bugs. Tourists, he says, always get sick at some point.
I watch a movie but I can’t focus. I keep imagining a mass of bodies bouncing to a beat. I’ve never been to a trance party. Travelling for me is about trying new things and stepping out of my comfort zone. This would have been perfect. I’ve never liked trance music. I don’t think.
Another whack of medication. Doped out.
I wake up on Saturday feeling pretty good considering that if you shook me, I’d rattle. I take a shower. I’m so spaced out from all the medication that I get stuck into a stare. I wonder if the way I’m feeling is anything similar to how it feels to be on ketamine. Why ketamine, I’m not sure. It must have cropped up in conversation recently. I’m tingly and dizzy and a bit numb. I’m trying to flip this on its head, trying to enjoy the feeling. I’m listening to Salmonella Dub and I wonder what genre Salmonella Dub is. I’ve never been good at classifying music. Whatever, it’s my own zone out party. I’m sure I’m in the shower for far too long. Zombiefied.
The rain arrives. ‘I’ve never seen rain in Bolivia’, says a guy I meet in the kitchen over a cup of tea. Talking about the weather. I could do this in England. I do do this in England. Actually, I do this everywhere. My one bit of Englishness comes with me.
And the day continues pretty uneventfully. I manage to get out to buy a bus ticket to Uyuni for the following day. The rain makes me a bit soggy, which isn’t clever when I’m still sick. Bare feet weren’t the smartest move. I buy some shoes. Retail therapy, not my thing at all, but it works. If I’d gone to the rave I wouldn’t have been able to buy these lovely shoes. I’m momentarily consoled.
For the first time in a while I can focus on a screen so I watch a movie but fall asleep half way through. It’s isn’t a bad film at all, just sometimes something happens when I’m in bed watching a film, particularly when I’m drugged up to my eyeballs. I try to fight it but my body wins out.
Early Sunday morning I pay my bill and get a goodbye cuddle from my hostel hostess. She’s been worrying about me. Thinks I should stay longer. I think I need to get out of Sucre before I become yet another one of the travellers stuck here longer term. I don’t think the place is healthy for me.
Maybe Uyuni will be better? Somehow I doubt it. Sitting at an altitude of 3,669m, I know my pain isn’t over. But I’m on the bus and heading to my friends who will surely be buzzing with incredible stories of all-nighters and special connections and amazing skies and scenery.
And, probably because I’ve been so damn unwell, actually I’m not really jealous. Yet.

Music, magic and the Festival of Lights
Every year, New Plymouth in New Zealand hosts the Festival of Lights for over a month during the summer period where bands play each night and the park is transformed into a magical place full of colour and light. Ferns swish in the breeze, people row on the lake under a rising full moon and kids play in a floodlit playground under the presence and sound of a scary, snoring giant.

Together with a couple of friends, I was on my way to see the Brazilian inspired band, Zamba Flam, play with Brazilian guest musicians. Clearly still unable to let go of my ongoing romance with South America, my time in New Zealand coincidentally has often seemed to lead me back to Latin experiences. I’m not complaining. A couple of beers in our rucksacks and some plastic bags to protect our bums from the damp ground, this was a cheap evening of free entertainment with a relaxed, summertime atmosphere.
Along the walk down into the park, the plants and trees along the pathway were coloured with pink and blue and green and yellow lighting. The waterfall went through changes of projected colour sequences, and people posed for photographs and parents chatted to other parents whilst their kids manically bounced around, excitement for being up way past their bedtime. The sweetness of summer holidays.
Lights at Pukeura Park
The band started their bossa nova rhythms accompanied by the low, silky voice of Alda Rezende. Groups of friends and families gathered around in clusters, clapping politely and chatting quietly in between songs. Couples cuddled in closely and a few uninhibited souls danced and swayed freely to the beat.
Music in Pukeura Park
By 10:00pm it was over, but there was one more thing that I really wanted to see: the glow worms. We walked by fabricated, oversized and UV lit flowers, and then tiptoed our way down a pitch dark pathway, voices to a whisper.
And suddenly I saw the earthy bank twinkling with little lights. Further along it was even denser, these little worms shining out lights so bright that I questioned whether they were in fact real or yet another part of the fictional, fantasy world created by this festival.
Back through the fernery, again drizzled with colour and light and magic, and we headed out of the park and back to normality under the gaze of the man on the moon. A midsummer night’s dream? Yes, it sure felt like it.

Why I’m not so sure that I’ll go with ‘Happy New Year’
The countdown begins, the clock strikes midnight, we all cheer and cuddle and kiss friends and family to celebrate the start of a new year. (Or, if you’re on the road, you kiss and cuddle total strangers). But why is it such an event? The pressure, the build-up, the inevitable anti-climax? The broken resolutions, the resulting guilt and frustration? Is it really worth all the emotional bother?
Personally, I love New Year, not so much New Year’s Eve, but New Year itself. It symbolises a new start, a clean slate, a chance to put past hurts behind you and begin positively with the next chapter of your life. But really, why should a date matter? Even more so when the date is flawed and our whole calendar is a corrupt twisting of older methods of time telling.
When you’re travelling I believe that you’re even more likely to bump into people who open your eyes to new ideas. This whole calendar concept was only really introduced to me a week or so ago when I asked a new friend how important Christmas and New Year were to him. ‘What’s more important,’ he said, ‘is that we’ve just had the longest day of the year, the summer solstice’ (I’m in New Zealand). He argued that the modern calendar is a bastardised way of organising the year that has little to do with the circular pattern of life during a solar/lunar year and more to do with politics, religion and self-interest. I did some basic research…
THE ROMAN CALENDAR
The old Roman calendar was ‘originally was determined by the cycles of the moon and the seasons of the agricultural year‘ and used to be ten months in length with an extra little bit for the winter period. The first day of the year was March 1st and if you know a little Latin then it makes sense that October, for example, would be the eighth month and December the tenth. Some time around 600 B.C. a Roman ruler called Pompilius introduced January and February in order to account for the preious gap in the calendar for winter, and made January the first month of the year. It was all still a bit unpredictable: some years had twelve months, others thirteen, and a year averaged between 355 and 378 days. Pompilus is supposedly also responsible for focusing the calendar on religion rather than landwork but more surprising is that the priests of the Roman Empire are said to have ‘exploited the calendar for political ends, inserting days and even months into the calendar to keep the politicians they favored in office’. So overall, a bit of an odd system and one that was most definitely fluid and corrupt.
THE JULIAN CALENDAR
Julius Ceaser got a bit frustrated by this random system and decided to do a reform that was more structured: a twelve month calendar that was based somewhat on the solar year and where each month would have either 30 or 31 days, apart from February – the end of the year – which would have to be shortened to align with the solar system. Not wanting to be forgotten, in 44 B.C. Julius Ceaser changed the month Quintilis to Julius (July), a trick later employed by the emperor Augustus who changed Sextilis to, you guessed it, Augustus (August). All a bit self-indulgent. Augustus also supposedly wanted his month to be a full month, so after some shifting around, 31 days were assigned to the month of August. But there were still some problems with the Julian calendar, namely discrepancies when compared with the solar year that meant every few years everything went out of sync. Again, a bit of a flawed system.
THE GREGORIAN CALENDER
In 1582 Pope Gregory XIII devised a calendar that was much more in tune with the solar year and had a better ‘formula for calculating leap years’, but the UK decided to be sticklers and it was only in 1752 following the British Calendar Act of 1751 that Brits finally aligned with their neighbouring countries, losing 11 days in the process. It was also here that the beginning of the legal year is said to have been moved from March to January.
So surely the Gregorian, our current system, is a good system? But why can’t we work with something a bit more solar or lunar orientated? ‘The Muslim calendar is the only purely lunar calendar in widespread use today’ with religious celebrations occurring in relation to the moon’s waxing and waning and therefore the corresponding dates on a Gregorian calendar are pretty randomised. The Chinese calendar, as another example, is lunisolar, based on the cycles of the moon where ‘the beginning of the year can fall anywhere between late January and the middle of February’. Better systems more in tune with the earth and its surroundings?
So what?
Back to the present and my travels. For New Year’s Eve I was lucky enough to be invited to a gathering up near Whangerei, New Zealand, where I played beer pong and got tipsy and did a bit of bad dancing. All this discussion and research had left me a bit confused. Is it just because as human beings we crave a definite timeline as opposed to a more natural rhythm? Is counting days in such a methodical way necessary? What’s wrong with going by nature instead? Is New Year, as we know it, really New Year? March does indeed seem to make more sense to me with the onset of spring and the bursting through of plants, and lambs being born, and just that ‘new start’ feeling you get at that time of the year.
So was I going to turn down an invite to a little party because of new knowledge and a sense that our calendar was created in order to pander to political and religious and social activities rather than the natural ebb and flow of life, and as a result is a bit of a corrupt system? And that therefore New Year was a bit of a farce? No, of course not. It would have just been bad form. I went, I saw in the New Year and I conquered some time demons.
So, what the hell. Happy New Year. Really.

How do online reviews create value? | B2B Marketing
How do online reviews create value?
The marketing landscape has clearly evolved. Consumers have vast brand influence at their fingertips in this digital social age, and businesses have multiple avenues to engage customers in personalised conversations. Trust has become a valid currency, and online reviews have the ability to influence and change customer opinion before they have even made it into your store or clicked the 'check out' button.
At Trustpilot, we wanted to dive into the value of the Trust Economy a little deeper, to understand what businesses that already collect online reviews believe are the benefits and opportunities, and what the key barriers are for those who aren't yet doing so. We therefore commissioned a survey of 1,500 business employees, including some existing Trustpilot customers.
The importance of reviews in the modern marketing landscape is indisputable. Our research showed that 79% of businesses believe that reviews play a highly important role in influencing consumers' decision-making. Businesses clearly have their finger on the pulse, as we had already found that 77% of consumers consult online reviews before making their purchasing decision - and of those, 62% state they're more likely to do business with a company after reading a positive review. But are businesses fully grasping the opportunity this presents?
Our research says, well, sort of. Although 69% of businesses currently collect and publicly display online reviews, nearly 1 in 5 (17%) collect online reviews but don't display them. And, more than 1 in 10 (14%) businesses don't collect customer reviews at all. But why shy away from promoting what your customers like about you, or worse yet bury your head in the sand and not ask them to share their feedback at all?
The number one reason is that organisations fear negative reviews, and the potential harm they could do to the business. Over 50% stated that their concern about potential negative exposure was the biggest barrier to collecting online reviews. As we've discussed before, the bottom line in this day and age is that consumers are writing reviews about your business, whether you ask them to or not. After all, we found that 60% of consumers have posted at least one review online in the past year. What businesses should bear in mind is that 83% of these were positive. As for the other 17%, businesses can mitigate the potential damage by taking ownership of the process and dealing with reviews first hand. After all, a thoughtful (and as important, timely!) response to a customer that has shared negative feedback makes that customer far more likely not to seek further outlets to publicly vent their frustration, and potentially even convert them into advocates for your brand.
It's also not just about promoting glowing reviews and managing bad ones. There's a wealth of insight that exists in between. Balanced feedback increases when businesses actively request reviews from their customers. By asking all of your customers to review their experience, you're more likely to shift from a preponderance of 'black and white' reviews to gathering more 'shades of grey' – the three and four star reviews that contain balanced and representative feedback.
The research also revealed some interesting insights into the business benefits of reviews beyond a positive financial impact – which 79% agree they deliver. Unsurprisingly perhaps, over a quarter said they help acquire new customers and 14% believe they help increase customer loyalty. However, we were surprised that using them as a 'real-time customer sentiment barometer' didn't rank higher, particularly given their role in gaining new customers in the first place and as a complement to other business goals such as Net Promoter Score and Brand Health Index. While there's no wrong reason for implementing customer reviews, it's important to view them as part of the 'bigger-picture' when it comes to customer engagement and insights to unlock their full potential value.
Overall the end goal any business should be striving for is to leverage customer feedback not just to drive customer acquisition, but also to strengthen initiatives aimed at increasing customer retention, loyalty and advocacy. It's about taking a cross-functional, collaborative approach to managing online reviews so that feedback is shared - and put to good use - across the business.

We'd love to hear about how online reviews are benefitting your business in the comments section below. Or you can join the conversations on Twitter via @Trustpilot.
The data is drawn from two surveys commissioned by Trustpilot.
Trust Economy Consumer survey:
Conducted in partnership with CensusWide of 2,000 adults throughout the UK who have made Internet purchases in the past year.
Trustpilot Business survey:
1,500 adults from UK and US businesses were surveyed online between June and August 2014. 513 of those respondents were existing Trustpilot customers.

Thread: "The Grass Is Greener" Syndrome
09-13-2008, 06:00 PM #1
* Reasons for the break up are contradicting or sound like the dumper is grasping at straws for reasons. As if they are trying to convince themselves of it, too.
* Not much warning that something is going on before the actual break.
* An extreme change in lifestyle, such as suddenly starting to drink a lot, party a lot and hang around people they normally wouldn't.
* Wishy-washiness on the part of the dumper. They love you, but aren't IN love with you. They say that this doesn't mean you two are over forever and maybe someday down the road you'll be together again. At the same time, they'll tell you to move on.
* Quickly entering new relationships with people they aren't very compatible with.
If anyone has any questions, I'll be happy to give you my opinion on the matter.
09-13-2008, 06:51 PM #2
Wow, good insight. I can identify a few of these symptoms with my ex, actually all do apply. Even though I really don't believe that you can categorize people, I can really see some of these being applied to my ex. Crazy.
I not sure really about the reconciliation portion of the post. My ex seems happier and living her life and I'm pretty much out of the picture. But I guess it remains to be seen what will happen.
09-13-2008, 07:08 PM #3
I didn't know younguns could have a life crisis. I never did. I waited until I was at least forty;-) When you are younger, you are supposed to be discovering yourself and you will have many relationships, careers, and friends. It's not a crisis, it's normal. A crisis is a child born with birth defects, bankruptcy where you and your family are left homeless, the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Those are a crisis. Changing partners is just part of life. It's not a crisis. Though it does hurt, I'll give you that.

Mayday, Mayday...man, I was feeling a little sad. I came to ENA, picked up this thread by the subject, and suddenly found out: it's from Mayday. It's gonna be a good read.
When I read that above, I laughed. It was like "are you talking about me?". The second last point was the best one. My dear ex:
1. had some contradictions when breaking up. Body language told me she didn't really want to break up, but she did anyway;
2. we had our share of problems, but it was nothing that would cause a break up. At least, not without some fights before
3. yes, she started partying a lot. Before, it usually was once a week, rarely more;
4. yes, she WROTE that. "Don't know about the future, maybe we'll be together again". And told me to "live my life" (correct translation?), to move on.
5. new guy in the picture exactly 2 weeks later. Some incompatibilities already known;
6. She's 25 (until next Tuesday)!
7. Long term relationship (5.5 years), never had a break up, lived together for the last 2.5 years.
Mayday, I hope you're right. I've been working on myself for weeks now, both mind and body. My body is noticeably better now. I'd say almost as good as when we met. My mind is better, but not as much.
Thanks again. Your posts are always between the best I've read here.

You know, its really is crazy how Mayday's post can be applied to many break ups.
09-13-2008, 08:10 PM #6
wow, its like word for word with my situation
I read this post and I m speechless because of how much it applies to what im going through with my break up. All those classic symptoms mentioned applied to my situation almost word for word. Its scary. Mayday, what you wrote seems to correlate to my situation, please read my thread and tell me what you think, thanks.
09-13-2008, 08:12 PM #7
This is almost what I am going through, I think... except that I was also leaning a little bit toward a break. I think on her end of it, though, most of this definitely applies.
Well, maybe at least a little bit. She seems to be pretty freakin' compatible with her new boyfriend. But the early 20s bit, the love but not in love, all that stuff...

This topic hits the nail on the head.
I recently transitioned from a 2-year relationship with my college girlfriend to a long-distance relationship as I was going overseas to work a one-year position after I graduated this June. During these two years we have never fought or argued. The relationship has been the smoothest one I've had to date.
Everything goes smoothly for a month - we talk online everyday, Skype each other, tell each other I love you, etc. Then she drops the bomb on me -- she's been wondering "what else is out there" and wants to "date casually." I've always been a cool boyfriend willing to give her the space she needs - back in college I never got jealous when she went out partying without me - so I agreed that we should try an open relationship for a while. She agrees, tells me that she loves me, and that I'm still her boyfriend and she doesn't want to leave me.
One month later, I start seeing some confusing signals from her and a drop in commitment. I bring this up over the phone, and she starts giving ambiguous answers. She's been doing "a lot of thinking," but "doesn't know" about our future. All I want is for us to give the relationship a shot again after I get back, and she can't promise me that. I tell her to think hard about these issues so we can clarify them another day.
One month later (September), our communication is steadily getting worse. I feel like I'm the one doing all the work when it comes to instant messaging or phone calls. Nothing happens unless I take the initiative. I bring up our relationship chat from the previous month in our phone call, and after some amount of pressing she admits that she can't see herself dating me after I get back, because "things are just different." Meanwhile, her social networking profiles make it obvious that she enjoys the company of this guy she met over the summer.
I'm due to visit her in November (this was planned months ago), so we have a chance to sort things out face to face. But everything the OP mentioned is true - this situation comes out of nowhere and is incredibly painful to deal with because it leaves the couple in ambiguous territory. It's not a loss of love or personal problems that end relationships like these, but rather some desire to go find that greener grass. During the course of my relationship with her I thought about the same thing too, but in the end I decided to stick through and work on our relationship. It was probably at its highest point when I last saw her, so part of me is always disappointed that that's when it started crashing down.
As a first time poster who just found this website yesterday, I'm happy that there are veterans offering their advice and observations on the forums. Keep up the good work.

Simon & Schuster Says Mike Pence Book Will Proceed, Despite Employee Petitions – President Trump
Employees had circulated petitions demanding that the publisher cancel the book by Mr. Pence, shown with his wife, Karen, in January.
Photo: Michael Conroy/Associated Press By
It was unclear how many signatories the petitions had.
An online petition says Simon & Schuster "has chosen complicity in perpetuating white supremacy by publishing Mike Pence and continuing to distribute books for Post Hill Press." The petition accused Mr. Pence of advocating for policies that were racist, sexist and discriminatory toward LGBTQ+ people, among other criticisms of his tenure as a public official. "This is not a difference of opinions; this is legitimizing bigotry," the petition said.
Simon & Schuster is the publishing arm of ViacomCBS.
Anthony Ziccardi, publisher of Post Hill Press, didn't respond to a request for comment.
In a letter to staffers, Mr. Karp said, "As a publisher in this polarized era, we have experienced outrage from both sides of the political divide and from different constituencies and groups. But we come to work each day to publish, not cancel, which is the most extreme decision a publisher can make, and one that runs counter to the very core of our mission to publish a diversity of voices and perspectives."
Last week, Simon & Schuster, the publishing arm of ViacomCBS Inc., decided not to distribute a Post Hill Press book written by Jonathan Mattingly, a Louisville police officer involved in the Breonna Taylor shooting.
"That decision was immediate, unprecedented, and responsive to the concerns we heard from you and our authors," Mr. Karp said in his letter to staffers. "At the same time, we have contractual obligations and must continue to respect the terms of our agreements with our client publishers."
Mr. Ziccardi of Post Hill Press defended the decision to publish the book, saying "We feel people need to understand the story, read it, and allow the officer to have a voice."
Some Simon & Schuster employees wanted the company to go further and cut off any distribution ties with Post Hill Press. They cited that Post Hill has published Matt Gaetz, a Republican congressman from Florida who is under investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation over whether he had inappropriate contact with a 17-year-old girl. Mr. Gaetz has denied wrongdoing.
Bertelsmann SE has agreed to acquire Simon & Schuster for almost $2.18 billion. The deal is expected to close later this year pending regulatory approval.

A brand-new trailer for Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens shows off some new additions to the franchise.
Multi-builds are now possible. Instead of a singular path to take down an enemy, players have a choice in how they achieve their goal.
For those intensive blaster battles, players will be able to find cover behind nearby objects and jump out when the timing is right.
Space dogfights and arena-based battles are now in LSW:TFA. While flying is no stranger to the series, a revamped focus on the gameplay will make flight battles more intense.

LEAP Announces 10 Student Grant Program Recipients for 2022 - Yale Law School
The Law, Ethics & Animals Program (LEAP) at Yale Law School is thrilled to continue the LEAP Student Grant Program this year. Chosen from a highly competitive applicant pool, 10 students from across Yale are embarking on projects that build understanding of, draw attention to, and/or develop new strategies to address the urgent threats facing nonhuman animals. This year's set of awards will support multidisciplinary projects in law, policy, art, science, historiography, investigative journalism, and more. The 2022 LEAP Student Grant recipients include:
Annie Crabill, an M.A. student at the Jackson Institute for Global Affairs, interviewed politicians in Lyon, France who have introduced a plant-based school lunch program and maintained it in the face of public pushback. She plans to publish her work as a long-form article.
Diego Ellis Soto, a Ph.D. candidate in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, is creating music using machine learning technology to map animal motion into sound. LEAP's grant will support Soto's work to create a proof of concept for converting animal behavior into immersive music and art. He is displaying this work at art galleries at Yale in 2022, and will publish a scientific paper.
Robin Happel '23, a J.D. candidate at Yale Law School, plans to work with the Appalachian Mountain Advocates, an NGO in West Virginia, on litigation strategies to combat the environmental harms of confined animal feeding operations in the region.
Zack Steigerwald Schnall, a M.E.M student at the School of the Environment, will conduct a survey to determine how humans assign moral worth and economic value to other species, as well as public understanding of harms to animals and the environment. From these results, he will create a value of statistical life for nonhuman animals, which cost benefit analyses will be able to use going forward. The results of this study will be compiled and synthesized in a report which will be submitted for publication.
Meredith Barges, a M.Div. student at the Divinity School, is launching a new student organization to advocate for bird-friendly changes to Yale's practices and policies: bird-friendly building design to reduce collisions, lighting changes to protect dark skies and reduce migratory hazards, cessation of the use bird-killing rodenticides and pesticides, and the propagation of bird-friendly plants on campus.
Kristy Ferraro and Nathalie Sommer, Ph.D. candidates at Yale and former grant recipients, are continuing their work publishing on the philosophy of conservation. The research funded by this project will update two foundational ethical assumptions in conservation: that conservation should value groups and ecosystems above individual animals, and that anthropomorphism has negative value in conservation science.
Francis Commercon, an M.E.Sc. candidate at the School of the Environment, is conducting a case study in how the discovery of endangered shorebird populations led to updates to Chinese wetland conservation policy. Through interviews, the investigation will shed light on the interaction between ecology and Chinese environmental policy making.
Rosalyn Leban '24, a J.D. candidate, is creating podcasts, audio-interviews, and oral histories with the residents of Ometepe, Nicaragua. Her work will consider the connections between and interdependence of humans, non-human animals, and non-nimal life on the largest island in a freshwater lake in the world.
Kevin Yang, an M.A. candidate at the School of Architecture, will design and build model structures to encourage human-animal cohabitation in urban environments, in collaboration with the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History and the Yale-Myers Forest. These deployable structures will serve as shelter for animal refugees whose habitats are threatened by human activity, and showcase the genius and plight of wild animals.
Emily Tian, Yale College B.A. '23, is researching and writing a longform journalism piece about California's Proposition 12 law, a 2018 ballot initiative that was approved by 60% of the state's voters and that requires improved housing conditions for farm animals, and the legal challenges it now faces. She will discuss how farm animal welfare has been perceived in public debates about the law.

What are the quests in Word Crossy? - Word Crossy quick guide and FAQ
From a recent update the game has added quests to complete for in game rewards. These might be coins, letter boost credits or discount on in game boosts.
Quests are time limited and usually give you several days to complete the challenges set before disappearing or resetting.
These quests offer coin and booster rewards for completing set numbers of levels within the time allowed. The rewards can be quite good but only if you are a keen player with time available. If you are able to knock out 200+ levels in a few days then you can earn a lot.
You do not need to do anything extra though so play as normal and if you hit the targets set then you will get a little bonus.
Combos are achieved by finding / guessing words correctly in a sequence during regular levels. It is the combos that earn you the white flowers. If you keep your run going without making mistakes you will get a new combo each turn. When the combo quests is active you will earn coin rewards for completing a set number of each level of combo. If you are able to do well in 5-10 games you should unlock most of the combo quest rewards easily.
Recharging Quest
The final quest type is the recharging quest. This gives you extra coin rewards when you use the in game shop to purchase coins for real money. You will receive a bonus on top of any coins you decide to buy depending on the purchase amount.
This is not really a way to get free coins as it involves spending money. But if you are intending to make a purchase then doing it when this quest is active will at least give you a little extra.

598,916 in city 1,760,268 in metro Area
96.14 mi² (249 km²)
Wisconsin's largest city, Milwaukee was settled in 1836 with incorporation in 1848. It was a major center of German immigration and grew rapidly through the middle of the 20th century, reaching an area of 96 square miles and a peak population of 750,000.
Milwaukee has been home to the Schlitz, Miller, Blatz, and Pabst breweries, but it is Schlitz that claims to have made the city famous. Brewery tours (with free samples) are one of the principal attractions, as are the Brewers baseball team which plays in the new retractable-roof Miller Park.
Like its neighbor Chicago, Milwaukee's skyline is concentrated near where the river meets Lake Michigan, with a string of highrises extending north along the lake. The new centerpiece of the lakefront is the dynamic Milwaukee Art Museum Quadracci Pavilion designed by Santiago Calatrava S.A..
Milwaukee maintains active sister city relationships with Galway, Ireland, Nuevitas, Cuba, Parma, Italy, Queenstown, South Africa, and Schwerin, Germany.

Community of the Sisters of the Church: The Means – Generosity Monk
Community of the Sisters of the Church: The Means
Home » Meditations » Meditations » Community of the Sisters of the Church: The Means
"We are to be the means through which Christ lives on earth in adoration of God our Creator, desiring that the divine glory may be manifest, God's sovereign rule come and purposes of love be accomplished. And also we are to offer ourselves in love as Christ did for the world's healing and reconciliation with God."
Community of the Sisters of the Church in "Our Vocation" as recounted in What Do You Seek? Wisdom from Religious Life for Today's World by John-Francis Friendship (Norwich: Canterbury Press, 2021) 101.
God's desire is that you and I are "the means through which Christ lives on earth" in adoration and service to make known the love of the Father to the world.
What I love about the various communities celebrated in this book is their commitment, their focus, their intentionality to fulfill their purpose on earth. But for most of us, life is distracted at best.
So, how do these groups stay on track?
A consistent thread I am finding is that the groups say "No" to many things so they can say "Yes" to a life of service, and they do this together.
They move toward the poor and the broken. God takes care of the rest.
To grow in generosity today, consider what you might say "No" to so that you can say "Yes" to move toward someone needing healing or reconciliation with God.

SID.ir | INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF CHITOSAN AND SAL VADORA PERSICA ON BLOOD LIPIDS IN THE WISTAR RAT
Journal: JOURNAL OF SHAHID SADOUGHI UNIVERSITY OF MEDICAL SCIENCES AND HEALTH SERVICES SPRING 2007 , Volume 16 , Number 1; Page(s) 40 To 47.
INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF CHITOSAN AND SAL VADORA PERSICA ON BLOOD LIPIDS IN THE WISTAR RAT
Author(s): EZ ALDINI ARDAKANI F.*, AKHAVAN KARBASI M.H., VAHIDI ALI REZA, MIR JALILI N., ESLAM POUR N.
* DEPARTMENT OF ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL RADIOLOGY, SHAHEED SADOUGHI UNIVERSITY OF MEDICAL SCIENCES AND HEALTH SERVICES, YAZD, IRAN
Introduction: Hypercholesterolemia is a metabolic disorder that ultimately results in arterial sclerosis and complications like hypertension and coronary arterial diseases. Various drugs have been used for the treatment of this condition and many studies are underway for introducing new drugs. Chitosan and Salvadora Persica are two such drugs. Chitosan is produced by deactivation of chitin which is present mainly in the exoskeleton of crustaceans. The aim of this invitro study was to study the effects of these two drugs on blood lipid levels.
Methods: In this Interventional Laboratory Trial, 30 mature vistar rats weighing 200-250 grams were selected and after a period of two weeks in order to allow them to adapt to their surroundings, they were allotted randomly to 6 groups. The rats were then fed for a period of 15 days with normal or fatty diet, with or without the drugs. Chitosan in pure powder form and persica in the form of hydro alcoholic salvadora persica stem extract were added to the diet of the respective study groups. At the end of this period, blood samples were taken in order to measure cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL levels. Data was analyzed statistically using SPSS software program and Scheffe, ANOVA and Descriptive statistical tests.
Results: Both chitosan and persica decreased cholesterol and LDL levels in the groups ingesting fatty diet (P< 0.05) and the mean decrease was not statistically different for the two drugs. (P>0.05). The two drugs had no effect on triglyceride and HDL levels. (P > 0.05) Both chitosan and persica had no effect on blood lipid levels of subjects on normal diet whose cholesterol levels were normal (P > 0.05).
Conclusion: Persica and chitosan have similar effects on reduction of cholesterol and LDL levels in cases of hypercholesterolemia, but have no effect on triglyceride and HDL levels.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Real 3D graphics were not still possible at that time, so the advertised 3D was essentially a clever utilization of 2nd graphics (an isometric projection) with mathematically generated terrain and overlaid bitmaps and sprites.
And that took… 3 several years. So in case you’re a streamer who contacted us over the past 3 a long time, be assured I’m at the moment while in the sluggish technique of dusting off my e-mails (assuming your channel even exists any longer) so you could hear from us quickly if We've got codes to spare.

This idea is, even so, thrown absent when you are trying to structure an anti-3 star base, in which the Town Hall is taken into account just to be considered a high hit-place developing and it is employed to guard essential buildings to prevent the attacker from claiming a 3rd star (hence the name).
We would been marketing the pre-alpha Edition of this match on our Web site just before, and experienced located a really nice, minor community of gamers who gave us comments.

With an upcoming Halloween/Birthday party, I wanted a huge frame for a photo booth. Turns out, it is a cute overall decor item too!
It started when the fall clean up for our city was taking the large garbage items. I looked a the huge piece of press board we had in the garage and wanted it re-purposed or thrown out. With the upcoming party, I thought I’d repurpose it for a photo booth.
Step six: Cover the baby up. I was going for a Halloween look, so I used a Dollar Store black plastic table cloth and packing tape, as I misplaced the duct tape I wanted. Your size and shape makes a difference in how you wrap. Mine was really large and I made it six inches thick the entire way around the frame. So I cut the table cloth into strips and taped it.
I found this recipe in Laurie David’s The Family Dinner under the title Vietnamese Soup in a Teapot. yeah… it’s Pho. The good stuff too.
Newsbeuter is a great command line tool to read your favourite RSS feeds. Also, it lets you choose which command to invoke when opening an article URL link, by setting the browser key inside configurations. newspaper aims to be a simple command line tool to read URL's content in a clean and readable way.
It provides client and server functionality as well as a little sample server showing how I might make a server if I valued purity over performance.
The basic design can be seen in gocache. A storage server is run as a goroutine that receives a MCRequest on a channel, and then issues an MCResponse to a channel contained within the request.
Each connection is a separate goroutine, of course, and is responsible for all IO for that connection until the connection drops or the dataServer decides it's stupid and sends a fatal response back over the channel.
There is currently no work at all in making the thing perform (there are specific areas I know need work). This is just my attempt to learn the language somewhat.
Pcompress is an archiver that also does compression and decompression in parallel by splitting input data into chunks. It has a modular structure and includes support for multiple algorithms like LZMA, Bzip2, PPMD, etc, with SKEIN/SHA checksums for data integrity. Compression algorithms are selected based on the file type to maximize compression gains using a file and data anaylis based adaptive technique. It also includes various data transformation filters to improve compression.
It also implements Variable Block Deduplication and Delta Compression features based on a Polynomial Fingerprinting scheme. Delta Compression is done via the widely popular bsdiff algorithm. Similarity is detected using a technique based on MinHashing. Deduplication metadata is also compressed to reduce overheads. In addition to all these it can internally split chunks at file and rabin boundaries to help Dedupe and compression.
It has low metadata overhead and overlaps I/O and compression to achieve maximum parallelism. It also bundles a simple slab allocator to speed repeated allocation of similar chunks. It can work in pipe mode, reading from stdin and writing to stdout. SIMD vector optimizations using the x86 SSE instruction set are used to speed up various operations. Finally it supports 14 compression levels to allow for ultra compression parameters in some algorithms.
Pcompress also supports encryption via AES, Salsa20 and uses Scrypt from Tarsnap for Password Based Key generation. A unique key is generated per session even if the same password is used and HMAC is used to do authentication.
Pcompress is dual licensed with LGPLv3 and MPLv2 sources. The main git repository is LGPL licensed. A separate tarball of the sources with MPLv2 license is made available as a download. This is updated periodically. Since Pcompress also integrates a bunch of third-party software a few features may be missing in the MPLv2 licensed version because of the upstream software being LGPL licensed originally.
Archive the given listr of files into file.pz and max compresion level and all features enabled. A maximum chunk size of 20MB is used. Also use verbose mode which lists each file as it is processed.
Compress "file.tar" using Zlib and per-thread chunk or segment size of 10MB and Compression level 9. Compressed output is sent to stdout using '-' which is then redirected to a file.
It is possible for a single chunk to span the entire file if enough RAM is available. However for adaptive modes to be effective for large files, especially multi-file archives splitting into chunks is required so that best compression algorithm can be selected for textual and binary portions.

On The Future Of Chessmonk
Posted on July 14, 2006 | 5 Comments
While I'm mostly doing polishing work (preparing for a first release), I'm getting a better idea about what I ultimately want to accomplish with the Chessmonk GUI. I intend to support the following tasks:
Viewing Chessgames – The most simple use-case, which is very straight forward. Opening and viewing PGN files already works. I also intend to add database queries in the future, so you can view a subset of your large reference database.
Analysing – Features I intend to add for this task are a free analysis mode, chess engine evaluation and positional database queries (like scid's tree view).
Editing – The ability to enter new moves, variations, comments, etc. Also to save a modified PGN file or to import games into a database.
Book and Repertoire – Although I never used it, I very much like the simple philosophy of Bookup. It should be possible to manually evaluate a position in the database and use these evaluations in the positional database reference view. Especially when using back-solving (basically figuring out what's the best evaluation when both sides play the best moves), this can be a lot more helpful than simple result statistics. Additionally I want to allow the user to flag every position as belonging to his opening repertoire, so the program can mark all games which involve any of these positions and novelties played in lines from the opening repertoire.
So as you can tell, I plan to add complete database support, but in a manner that does not take away from the current simplicity of the interface. I will most likely go for a relational database like PostgreSQL, which would make it easy to add online databases.
All this might sound a little over-ambitious for now, but the good thing is that I can approach one step after another, without being forced to ever complete them all. I still would like to invite additional comments from other chess players who use chess database software (not chess clients).

I'm very interested in your ChessMonk project. I refuse to plop down over a hundred dollars to ChessBase or Chess Assistant for databases that hog processing power and memory; they're also very cumbersome. I've got a graveyard of old PGN viewers lying around my desktop — programs like SCID, ChessPad, and a few others. Nothing seems attractive and functional. At the moment, my games database consists of a PGN text file.
ChessMonk looks promosing, but needing to install Python in order to use it seems prohibitive. Do you have an easy way to install Python, or is there an exe file that Python can create?
Feature that I would like to see:
Nice graphics (whih already exists)
A quick and easy way to sort games (by date, opening, black/white, etc.)
A very accurate ECO coding algorithm — so far, nobody seems to be able to get transpositions correct. I need an ECO algorithm that understands transpositions. If it doesn't understand transpositions, it's pretty useless.
Thanks for your time. Please respond to my email, as I won't be checking this site often. Thanks.

This looks great 😉
I was tinkering around with pygtk myself, and considered writing a simple pgn viewer. I'm glad I found your application.

i do not like your purpose :
1° english might not to be the only langage on this site when we are speaking about chess;
2° we do not need another 'widget,gadget' but a tool
3° your project is not (for the future) done for chessplayer but only for you
4° why not in java ? quick, without problem,clear,light … lua is heavy …
5° a suggestion ?
well , if you are agree, i would like a button which allow us to increase and decrease the color of the board, and even choose the color.
a downloader might be helpful in the way that, stopping the game and looking for the same 'opening' on the net per example.
be open to the suggestions and comments should be useful coming from another player when we are viewing a game , but is it possible to join another player on a "lan" or "connection" only coming from your viewer by anonymous registered player?

Locked Out: Please don't take my sunshine from me
Please don't take my sunshine from me
Blazer and Tank Top, Forever 21
Black tank, Costco
Kitten heels, Unionbay
Someone took the sunshine away. Not sure who the culprit is, but seriously. It was sunny and warm for something like 19 days in a row. That's a record for Western Oregon. It was amazing though.
I'm back to my regular work routine, although everyone is still trying to figure out how I'll be paid for the hours I was trapped in San Francisco. I'm mostly just glad to be home and leading a normal life again. Sleeping in a bed. Eating normal food. The basics.
Since I've been back, I haven't done much exciting. My parents actually are in Las Vegas right now (they've been planning this trip forever, so it was a big coincidence!) -- they drove though, so no fears of getting stuck anywhere! Yesterday, I went to work super early and then cleaned my fridge out after work. I know, so exciting. Then I watched Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring extended edition. During which I fell asleep. Today, I went grocery shopping. I had to stop to buy mousse and somehow left with another essie polish. Don't judge me! It's from the poppy-razzi collection!
These jeans need a good wash -- they're so wrinkled! I wore them in Las Vegas and on the trip home, they got some torture in my bag (it might have been switching bags or rearranging them or sleeping on them in the airport). Plus, I wore them to work the other day. I just am afraid to washing them too much and the color fading -- I've already had to spot treat them about three times! This outfit is a combination of the outfits I wore to work over the weekend. Saturday, I wore my dark jeans and a purple sequined top with this blazer. Sunday, I wore these jeans with this top, a blue tank top, and my navy blue blazer. I have worn this blazer twice and then sort of ran out of ideas, but I think it looks so cute with jeans! With dresses, it looks a bit messy because it's oversized, but with jeans, I think it's the right amount of cute and boyish. I don't have much else to write about, so I suppose it's good I have this...
I was tagged by Rachel, so here are my 10 responses. I'm supposed to tag five other people, but I won't, because I'm lazy. So if you want to answer these, please go ahead -- post them in the comments, or on your blog, or on Twitter! Wherever. :] 1) Favourite Colour: Teal/turquoise, probably followed by red, pink, or yellow. I like a lot of colors, actually... 2) Favourite Number: 6! I only like even numbers. 3) Favourite Animal: I love dogs, mostly corgis, dachshunds, and pugs. I also am a big fan of pandas and polar bears. 4) Favourite Non-Alcoholic Drink: Probably Diet Pepsi/Coke or a caramel frappucino! I'm a big fan of salted caramel mochas too. 5) Facebook or Twitter: I use both for different things. I prefer Twitter for blog talk. 6) What is my Passion: Writing. And fashion. 7) Receiving or Giving: I like to give people gifts -- I love to feed people especially. But I really do like receiving gifts. Who doesn't like receiving gifts!? 8) Favourite Pattern: Polka dots. Obviously. 9) Favourite Day of the Week: I really like Wednesdays. My bad days always tend to fall on Sundays or Fridays! 10) Favourite Flowers: Love poppies, daffodils, most types of lilies, but especially Douglas lilies (or lilies of the forest, etc. - they are purple). Also love bleeding hearts and wild California poppies. Lilacs. Wild bluebells (teeny tiny -- they grow in the woods). Tulips, but mostly the yellow-orange ones! I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday. I'm off to watch "Woman in Black" (I'm going to be terrified, aren't I?) and make a grilled cheese sandwich!
ElleMay 22, 2012 at 12:38 PMMy favorite color is cerulean. Your tank is so cute, and I am loving your hair lately! :DReplyDeleteNnennaMay 22, 2012 at 8:12 PMYour pink pants are so cute- I want a pair of colored pants so badly! Also, congratulations on your blog award :)ReplyDeleteAdd commentLoad more...

Epic Fuels the Unreal Engine Community by Giving Away Paragon
Apr 11, 2018 3:10:46 PM
Last month Epic Games made the awesome announcement that they have released the assets of their now cancelled game Paragon. After their much more successful game Fortnite Battle Royale took the limelight they decided to end Paragon and are no longer developing it. This would normally mean a huge amount of developer hours, stunning design work and the efforts of a skilled team go to waste, but Epic have a novel approach to what happened.
Epic decided to give access to Unreal developers to all of the weapons, sounds, animations and characters for absolutely nothing. This is an incredible announcement as it means the blood, sweat, tears and passion of everyone who worked on Paragon could evolve into other games and help the developer community. Developers are now able to use the game assets however they may choose - and it sure to be a popular step. What is clear is that there were thousands of hours and a huge amount of heart that went into developing Paragon, so what better way of saying goodbye to the game than letting it live on elsewhere in some other form?
It also leads me to think why has nobody done this before? Well, there are obvious cost reasons as Epic didn't set out to spend millions of dollars developing state of the art graphics just for developers to play around with. Nonetheless it's pretty amazing to see Epic take this step and be open to sharing the assets of such a large scale game, rather than taking the burning bridge approach. It makes perfect business sense as they are very much focused on their Unreal Engine, but it's also a great way to serve their community.

The average Delhi-ite’s driving commute is estimated at about 45 minutes, each way. In one day, that is an hour and a half - an average of 8-9 hours over the course of a week. Throw in a few major traffic jams and a couple diversions due to flooded roads from monsoon rains, and your time in the car could easily be doubled. How do our bodies react? Research has shown that people who drive, or ride in a car, for several hours each day are more likely to have knee, neck, and low back pain. Have you noticed that your knees, neck, or low back hurt when you are stuck in traffic?!!
First and foremost, driving or riding in a car is about sitting. As Functional Manual Therapists (FMT), we evaluate your sitting posture in the clinic and guide you to find the most efficient way to sit in all aspects of your life, and especially in the car. Often in this process, we identify mechanical restrictions such as joint or soft tissue tightness that is preventing you from assuming a more comfortable sitting posture. Common mechanical restrictions include tight hamstrings, tight shoulder girdle muscles, and limited lumbar or cervical spine mobility. A FMT can identify the specific restrictions, which impair your efficient sitting posture and treat you with state of the art Functional Mobilization™ techniques to restore the necessary mobility.
Other times we discover that the issue with finding a proper sitting posture is the patient’s inefficient proprioceptive awareness of where he or she should sit. Proprioceptive means what one feels in terms of positioning. In the physical therapy world, this is referred to as Motor Control, which basically refers to how the brain interprets information, received from one’s environment and then uses that information to appropriately adjust how one postures or moves. Many times a patient is unaware of the fact that the seat is too close or too far from the pedals, or that the backrest leans too far back, and very importantly, that one is not using appropriate arm support.
Having the seat too close to the pedals can cause the knees to be compressed and rotate, causing knee pain while driving. There is a perfect distance that your therapist will help you discover that gets you close enough to reach the steering wheel and see out the window, but protects the knees and spine.
If the backrest leans too far back, drivers generally compensate by moving the head forward in an effort to keep the eyes level with the horizon. This causes the muscles between the head and neck to become tight and can cause headaches. Another compensation for a backrest inclined too far back is that the arms must reach farther to hold the steering wheel. This causes the muscles between the shoulders and neck to work harder than they should, creating tightness in the shoulders. The combined effect of forward head and long arm reaching is often pain radiating down the arm.

Digilent chipKIT Max32 — OpenXC CAN Translator 4.1 documentation
These instructions assume your chipKIT is running the stock firmware, the avrdude bootloader.
USB Cable¶
You need to have the mini-USB port on the chipKIT connected to your computer to upload a new firmware. This is different than the micro-USB port that you use to read vehicle data - see the device connections section of the OpenXC website to make sure you have the correct cable attached.
Uploading Script¶
Open a terminal run the upload_hex.sh script from the cantranslator directory, passing it the path to the .hex file you downloaded:
$ cd cantranslator
$ script/upload_hex.sh <firmware file you downloaded>.hex
The upload_hex.sh script attempts to install all required dependencies automatically, and it is tested in Cygwin, OS X Mountain Lion, Ubuntu 12.04 and Arch Linux - other operating systems may need to install the dependencies manually.
If you have more than one virtual serial (COM) port active, you may need to explicitly specify which port to use. Pass the port name as the second argument to the script, e.g. in Linux:
$ script/upload_hex.sh <firmware file you downloaded>.hex /dev/ttyUSB2
and in Windows, e.g. if you needed to use com4 instead of the default com3:
$ script/upload_hex.sh <firmware file you downloaded>.hex com4
In Windows, this command will only work in Cygwin, not the standard cmd.exe or Powershell.
If you get errors about $'\r': command not found then your Git configuration added Windows-style CRLF line endings. Run this first to ignore the CR:
If the flashing script failed, you may need to install the dependencies manually.
If you are using Windows or OS X, you need to install the FTDI driver. If you didn't need to install MPIDE, you can download the driver separately from FTDI.
AVR Programmer¶
In order to program the CAN translator, you need to install an AVR programmer. There are a number of free options that will work.
With MPIDE
If you have MPIDE installed, that already includes a version of avrdude. You need to set the MPIDE_DIR environment variable in your terminal to point to the folder where you installed MPIDE. Once set, you should be able to use upload_hex.sh.
Without MPIDE
If you do not already have MPIDE installed (and that's fine, you don't really need it), you can install a programmer seprately:
Linux - Look for avrdude in your distribution's package manager.
OS X - Install avrdude with Homebrew.
Install Cygwin and MPIDE, and follow the Installation documentation to configure the MPIDE environment variables.
The PIC32 avrdude bootloader is tested and working and allows flashing over USB with avrdude. All stock chipKITs are programmed with a compatible bootloader at the factory.
Once the dependencies are installed, attach the chipKIT to your computer with a mini-USB cable, cd into the src subdirectory, build and upload to the device.
This build process assumes your chipKIT is running the avrdude bootloader - all chipKITs come programmed with a compatible bootloader by default.
In Eclipse, go to File -> Import -> C/C++ -> Existing Code as Makefile Project and then select the cantranslator/src folder.
An additional item to consider when using UART: typically you will want to rig the chipKIT to be self-powered (either from an external power source or the vehicle) if you're going to use UART for adding Bluetooth support. There's not much point in being wireless if you still need power from USB.
In that case, move the power jumper from the 5v input on the Network Shield to A0 (analog input 0). Instead of using 5v to power the board, the firmware can use it to detect if USB is actually attached or not. The benefit of this is that if you connect USB, then disconnect it, we can detect that in the firmware and stop wasting time trying to send data over USB. This will dramatically increase the throughput over UART.
On the chipKIT Max32, logging will be on UART2 (Pin 16 - Tx, Pin 17 - Rx) at 115200 baud (if the firmware was compiled with DEBUG=1).

I do not know what it is that they’re doing, but they methodically rank in the top of the organizing platforms, that enable speed site speed optimization, it’s ludicrous.
I have actually checked out as well as come across many people, that, after they switched their organizing over to SiteGround, saw entire SECONDS take off their web site loading speeds which basically put them on the map (in the internet search engine) over night.
From web page 2 to top of page 1 like that. Tons of testimonies and polls of individuals picking SiteGround over others, it really is insane.Add Siteground To Domin
This, coupled with the reality that the pricing is very reasonable … makes SiteGround go from an “okay solution”, to one of top options available.
So SiteGround is a webhosting that does not just save your files and also serve your internet sites– it has every little thing you require to be able to run a specialist shop or blog site from scratch and with a significant direct over the competitors. Check out some of the photos below, to see what I suggest.
For this SiteGround review, I will certainly simply be concentrating on the organizing plan. The hosting, WordPress Hosting, as well as WooCommerce Hosting all have the same strategies and costs throughout, no matter (the just difference is what the holding is ideal fore, which we mentioned before).
The SiteGround unique cost is what you pay if you are acquiring the solution for the first time. You can choose between 1, 2, and 3 years. SiteGround charges yearly, so this means that you’ll want to increase each rate by 12.
Once that amount of time that you’ve picked to host your sites with, is up, you’ll then need to pay the routine cost (likewise billed annual).
If you remain in it for the long term, you need to obtain the 3-year GrowBig prepare for three years. You will certainly pay only $214, and also only after three years will certainly you begin paying $19.95 each month.
To ensure that is the standard strategy, still fine. However, for the GrowBig and GrowBig strategies, you get an unrestricted number of web sites plus all the benefits of the StartUp strategy. In addition to that, you can enjoy in between 25,000 to 100,000 website check outs monthly.
The reason you need to possibly pick the GrowBig plan, over the StartUp plan, is the internet sites you can organize. You could think that you’ll require only one internet site … but you’ll be surprised simply the number of sites you’ll probably wind up with. It can get addicting!
Currently, I’m making use of Namecheap to host my website, but if I were to change my holding at any type of given minute in time (which I might extremely easily do, soon) I would certainly choose SiteGround over any other option out there without a doubt.
Without a doubt, SiteGround is just one of the very best web hosting carriers available, and also the one that I personally suggest one of the most.
What makes it really fantastic is the SG Optimizer, as well as the ridiculous rate optimization process. If your web site is slow and also you are not conscious, you’ll shed a lot of traffic given that Google will certainly not rate your web page if it is as well slow-moving due to the fact that it gives customers with a bad experience.
SiteGround is a leading choice for a web host. I very recommend the system, and also in addition to that, need to say that its customer support is among the best for sure.Add Siteground To Domin
Also, if you’re still unclear regarding this hosting service, and could be thinking about looking into one more various option, I recommend that you likewise reviewed my Bluehost evaluation right here.
