There's no end to the drama when Lia stumbles on a dead diva. Talented, charismatic Dr. Geoffrey Lawrence has manipulated students and staff at Hopewell Music Conservatory for years, destroying lives and careers at whim. No one knows this better than Hannah Kleemeyer, the school admin who plays nanny for the professor's trio of adorable dogs. Lia's mural commission at Hopewell and her friendship with Hannah place her at the center of the drama when the Machiavellian voice professor is murdered, drama heightened by the theatrical tendencies of the suspects and further complicated by the terms of the professor's will. The solution to Lawrence's murder lies with his many victims, but the detectives assigned to the case are more suited to rousting gang-bangers than eliciting shameful secrets. Meanwhile, a mysterious informant is determined to involve Lia's beau, Detective Peter Dourson. It's a case Peter can't touch now that Cincinnati has created a centralized unit to handle homicides. With Peter hamstrung by departmental politics and the assigned detectives barking up the wrong tree, it will take Lia and the dog park gang to unravel the truth. (75,000 words)

From biz success to TedX, Ramsden relishes sharing innovation By Sean Meyer Kelsey Ramsden business pedigree is impressive as she not only owns a successful civil construction business, but was named Canada's top female entrepreneur by Profit Magazine in both 2012 and 2013. More than a decade earlier, Kelsey had moved from British Columbia to London to complete her MBA at Western University's Richard Ivey School of Business. As a result of her success, the award-winning entrepreneur, podcaster and author — she also has an upcoming global book tour — started getting phone calls from people looking for her to share her business insights. However, the idea really only started to take hold while out for a lunch with a new acquaintance who suggested Kelsey should be sharing her experiences with a wider audience as a public speaker. It wasn't exactly an idea she immediately warmed up to. "She said I should be a speaker and I said, well why would I do that?" Kelsey said. "I was very much involved in businesses where you just do your work, be on time, stay on budget; I never really liked customer-facing business. It turns out, I really do like people." Those calls resulted in what she now describes as her "tertiary business," where she serves as a "wingman" for entrepreneurs looking to take their business operations — whatever they might be — to the next level. Ironically, two days later Kelsey got a phone call from a TedX event in her former hometown of Kelowna. Kelsey took them up on their offer, although in hindsight she doesn't recommend a TedX talk as someone's first foray into public speaking. She did find out though that while she's not naturally good at delivering a speech, she is particularly adapt at having a conversation with an audience. "I've realized this was always part of my life's ambition. It's a part of what I've always done," she said. "People say to me, how do you think like this, and I just shrug. For me, it's connecting with individuals around these intimate ideas. So, did I think I would be doing this? I can say, absolutely yes and unequivocally no." Kelsey could literally do her job anywhere, including out of her house, from an airplane, or back in her office in British Columbia. An invitation to speak at a Pillar Nonprofit Network event, however, led her to Innovation Works, where she's been set up for the better part of the past 18 months. It's an environment she's embraced because it connects her with people Kelsey acknowledges she wouldn't normally cross paths with. The flip side, Kelsey explains, is she comes into contact with "the titans of Canadian commerce weekly," so being able to share stories of the grassroots work being done at Innovation Works with those people who often have no proximity to it, has a lot of value. While it gives her something unique to talk with them about, from a wider community context, it also spreads the word around the opportunities coming out of the space. And speaking of that space, Kelsey said she is also grateful for what being at Innovation Works does for her personally. "The friends I've made have allowed me to get outside of my echo chamber . . . and that's been awesome," she said. "The really amazing the people who put this place together had the courage to say being part of a community doesn't exclude us from being front-facing to it. I think that's really cool."

New Court Complex Supports Vulnerable Children A state-of-the-art Children's Court specially designed for the needs of children and their families will open its doors for the first time today. Attorney-General Martin Pakula said the Family Division Complex at Broadmeadows Law Courts is the first purpose-built facility outside the CBD. The $11.4 million complex includes two modern courtrooms designed for conducting child protection cases and a secure, child-focused waiting room for children in emergency care. Dubbed the 'Cubbyhouse', the waiting room was created in consultation with specialist architects on behalf of the Alannah and Madeline Foundation. The facility will also include activities and services aimed at reducing conflict and trauma for children in emergency care attending the court. Families and Children Minister Jenny Mikakos said the design of the court fitted with the Government's aim to protect vulnerable children from trauma and harm and to provide positive experiences in care, in play and in education to help build resilience. The complex will be the first Children's Court in the state to trial the Case Docketing Pilot system. The 12-month pilot will see every case allocated to a particular judicial officer from beginning to end, allowing magistrates to become more familiar with the circumstances of individual children and their families. Mr Pakula said the pilot aimed to generate greater consistency across the Family Division of the Children's Court and reduce the amount of time child protection practitioners and other participants needed to attend and prepare for court hearings. Quotes attributable to Attorney General Martin Pakula "The Children's Court is a vital institution in the care and protection of Victorian children." "This new facility will continue to encourage new ways of thinking about court processes involving children." Quotes attributable to Minister for Families and Children Jenny Mikakos "Attending court can be a stressful and traumatic time for children and young people. This new court expresses our aspirations to protect children from harm whenever we can." "Many children attending court hearings have experienced trauma in their lives. This is one way we are working to help them recover." Quotes attributable to Member for Broadmeadows Frank McGuire "The Government is addressing the needs of vulnerable children during a traumatic time in a caring way. Locally we're also reengaging these kids with lifelong learning through our nearby Global Learning Centre."

Q: How do we know the point about which a body experiences torque? Say, I have a ladder which is kept slanted across a wall. It is obvious that it the ladder were to fall, it would rotate about the point which is in contact with the ground. How do we justify this? In a freely falling body, the rotation is always about the center of mass right? Then why should it fall about that particular point? A: The ladder rotates about the point of contact with the ground because, given sufficient friction, that point does not move relative to the ground. The other points of the ladder do move. Since the ladder can assumed to be rigid we get rotation about the point of contact with the ground. How do we know the point about which a body experiences torque? We don't know. Or to put it a better way, there is nothing to know. The point about which we calculate the torque of a force about is completely subjective. There are points that are better to pick than others depending on what you want to know about the system, but there is no law, rule, etc. that says you have to calculate the torque of a force about some specific point. In a freely falling body, the rotation is always about the center of mass right? I'm assuming you mean freely floating, perhaps? Or I guess as long the the gravitational field is uniform then that's fine too. But I will assume there are no external forces acting on our rotating body. Then you are right, it must rotate about it's center of mass. This is because if the object rotated about any other point, then it's center of mass would be accelerating. But this violates Newton's laws, since the center of mass of a system of particles cannot accelerate if there is no net external force acting on that system. Therefore we must only have rotation about the center of mass if no net force acts on the system. Your ladder has the external forces of gravity, the floor, an friction acting on it. Therefore, the ladder does not rotate about it's center of mass. A: The need to choose a reference point around which to measure torque is the same as the need to do so when measuring angular momentum. In fact, torque is the time-rate of angular momentum, just as force is the time-rate of linear momentum. The intuitive core is that, in effect, when you consider an extended, rigid body, what can be seen as purely rotational motion around one point can be considered as some combination of rotational and translational motions around another. Any point will, thus, suffice to calculate both torque and angular momentum - it just may be that, depending on the choice thereof, they will then behave in a "weird" way because psychologically, you've already identified a more "natural" point around which to compute them. But them behaving weirdly in this case doesn't mean you did the maths wrong; just that you found a less-than-ideal way to describe the situation.

Last week saw dBs Music Plymouth embark on Production Week, a series of workshops, collaborative jams and master classes happening across campus. Hosted by dBs Music tutors, final year degree students and alumni, Production Week saw students gain new knowledge and insight by taking part in thought-provoking seminars and exciting practical activities throughout the week. After a morning of excitement and anticipation, activities commenced swiftly in Plymouth's Pro Tools Suite. Attendees were greeted with a mountain of Eurorack modules, drum sequencers, analogue and digital hardware synths, MIDI controllers, effects processors, and microphones set amongst a jungle of cables. Session one was aptly named 'Sonic Exploration'. The workshop challenged students to configure three separate workstations to be played in unison over a surround sound speaker setup. To add another dimension of possibility an acoustic piano and vocal microphone were also presented as extra sound sources to play with. Energised by the challenge and the opportunity to explore different configurations, the students quickly designed a formidable set up that was armed and ready to jam with on day one. After closing day one with three installed systems that were tested and ready for action the excitement levels continued to rise in day two. Before the jam commenced, Electronic Music Production degree tutor Matt Ward delivered a compelling lecture on generating sound from nothing using a technique called no-input mixing. Covered in depth during year three of Matt's degree course, no-input mixing allows two mixers to become a sound source. This is achieved using the noise generated by the electronic circuit which is amplified by feedback loops. The technique is enhanced by routing the signal through guitar FX pedals, resulting in a dynamic pallet of sounds created from nothing.Matt's lecture was the perfect primer for the electro-acoustic jam session that followed. During the performance, students grouped around one of the workstations set up previously. Station one featured Matt's modular synthesiser as the centrepiece and primary sound source. Station two featured degree lecturer Phin Head's modular synthesiser, a vocal microphone, Neve & SSL microphone preamps, an Alesis digital reverb and a Korg Stage Echo analogue tape delay. The electronics were coupled with an acoustic piano that was miked up and routed through the modular creating a feedback loop yielding unique and interesting tones. Phin dubbed the technique 'PianoVerboCoder' because "it has aspects of both reverb and vocoding because the strings together act a little like a spring reverb, but they are all tuned so also act selectively if you only select some of them to be undamped, by depressing a chord". The third station featured Korg Volca Drums, Bass and FM with Roland Boutique synthesisers alongside a no-input mixing set up. After some time navigating the equipment and environment, the group produced three fantastic pieces born out of improvisation governed by constraints and idiosyncrasies of the setup. Ableton Live has grown massively in popularity due to its intuitive workflow, powerful effects and outstanding flexibility. Although the merits of Live are quite apparent it has a great deal of depth and can be used in highly creative and interesting ways. Chris's mind-expanding masterclass highlighted some truly inspiring techniques for sound generation and manipulation. The study of different workflow approaches. Using Ableton's MIDI tools and effects to create numerous styles of randomisation with a focus on generating unique melodic content. Manipulating the surround sound panner with effects processing to resample different results at each output. Creating your own sounds and instruments using recorded items ranging from children's toys to biscuit tins. We caught up with one of the attendees Ben Jacob and asked him how the class went. This is what he said, "It was brilliant to see Chris using Ableton in a way that really allows his experimental thought process to run wild. Because Ableton is randomly creating some of the manipulations, what Chris fed into the software created unexpected results which were really exciting... The whole session was really engaging and because the sounds were not predetermined at the front of the lesson, this meant that the whole process was completely organic and what was created was unique for everyone.". The final day of Production Week featured a series of lectures delivered by dBs Music tutor's, year three degree students and alumni. DJ & Music Production tutor and global Hardstyle phenomenon Matt Radley (aka Crystal Mad) kicked things off with a gripping talk on marketing yourself as an artist in the underground Hard Dance scene. Matt's discussion was followed by dBs Music alumni turned modular synth manufacturer Phen Mark's presentation on Manufacturing Music Equipment. Phen took the class on a modular design journey guiding the class through the various stages of design, creation and distribution of his synthesiser modules. The group were treated with prototypes, schematics, thoughts on design and a perspective on hand building electronics.The day was rounded off with a tutorial on producing Neurofunk Drum & Bass hosted by DMR. DMR broke down his creative process looking at strategies for generating ideas, sound design, drum processing, arranging, mixing and mastering a finished track. DMR's talk provided the ideal finale to an action-packed Production Week with students leaving the session feeling inspired and eager to get back in the studio.

Posted on: August 9th, 2016 by Wolf TG Admin Microsoft PowerShell has proven to be the most flexible method of automating a variety of administrative tasks on a Windows system — anything that you can do with a mouse and keyboard on a Windows machine can be scripted using PowerShell. Because of this, administrators commonly utilize PowerShell cmdlets (pronounced: command-lets), which automate tasks such as unlocking passwords, manipulating SQL data and much more. Since PowerShell has been included as a native CLI into every modern version of Windows, PowerShell provides familiarity for those using it on Windows Server, Windows Desktops or with cloud connected infrastructure. Windows PowerShell, as its name implies, is a shell that resembles the Windows Command Prompt. Some say that PowerShell could eventually replace the command prompt, while Windows purists believe that command prompt is here to stay. Since the command prompt has been around since the days of DOS, you could argue that the command prompt could have already been phased out by now. With that being said, both factions believe that PowerShell is the future of Windows Systems Aadministration and that no other shell will come along to replace it. Every Windows System Administrator needs to get intimately acquainted with PowerShell in order to get the most out of their Windows network. Power and Control Combined with Simplicity With PowerShell, you can automate the most complex of tasks of your Windows systems using commands called cmdlets. The best thing about PowerShell is that most Microsoft products can be used in conjunction with PowerShell. For example, you can use PowerShell to insert values into an XLSX Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. When it comes to security and scripting, Micosoft Windows is preconfigured to deny access to PowerShell because systems aren't configured to run scripts by default. If you wish to enable scripting, you must can either disable the security feature or make it to where only digitally signed scripts can run on your systems. This built in security feature ensures that PowerShell doesn't end up becoming the new VBScript. As you may know, VBScript is a powerful language that is now frequently misused for the creation of malicious scripts. Like the command prompt, VBScript isn't going away anytime soon. However, administrators say that PowerShell is easier to use for everyday Windows tasks. What You Can Do with PowerShell: Some Powerful Examples There is no doubt that Windows PowerShell is as powerful as it claims to be, but how can we achieve automation with it? Here are a few ways in which PowerShell can automate your system's administration. Quick Queries: With the cmdlet Get-Process, you can get a list of all the running processes along with their CPU and RAM usage. But that's just the first step. With PowerShell, you can set up filters to identify processes that are taking more CPU utilization. Powerful Reports: You can set up another filter to sort these processes by their handle ID and display this data in an interactive grid. This is just an example of how you can use PowerShell to generate automated reports on your system's performance. In the previous example, we've successfully pinpointed which processes are taking up the most CPU resources. Smarter Computing: PowerShell offers a lot of filtering and sorting options. With just a single line of code in PowerShell, you can develop a custom Service Restarting tool to revive any applications that are misbehaving. Task Scheduler: Another way that administrators automate their systems is by using the Task Scheduler. By simply using the task scheduler to run a PowerShell script at a certain time, systems administration can become simple and predictable. Is PowerShell the Future of Windows Computing? PowerShell is the present and the future for Windows scripting and automation, and these are some of the reasons why: Multipurpose: It serves as both a scripting language and a command-line shell. You can solve problems easily using existing cmdlets. In fact, you can configure your own cmdlets instead of compiling entire blocks of code. Universal: PowerShell is capable of interacting with diverse technologies. A language that can integrate and work with all these technologies certainly has value going forward. Object-Based: PowerShell gives you incredible flexibility as you can filter, measure, sort, group, and compare (an example of which is given before). It can work with methods and properties instead of relying on raw text. PowerShell is useful for anyone who is working inside the Microsoft ecosystem, and it's not just for system administrators. Powershell is supported by Microsoft for cloud and on-premise solutions as well. Since Microsoft is putting all its weight behind PowerShell, it's safe to assume that Microsoft PowerShell is here to stay.

Yesterday bitcoin's price touched a high of $11,650.46 and seemed poised to touch $12,000. Today it has reversed course as a bunch of East Coast economists came out against it. At 13:35 UTC, the price of a single bitcoin was $10,901.48, a drop of 4.68% from its price 24 hours ago. Among the top 10 most-traded cryptocurrencies, Monero continued its upward trajectory. The privacy-focused coin is up by 13% since last Friday on the back of investor enthusiasm about its impending hard fork. On a weekly basis, the coin is up by 33%. The hard fork, which is scheduled for March 14, will birth MoneroV. The new coin is expected to solve scaling problems for Monero and will have a limited, finite supply. This is unlike Monero, which has an unlimited supply. NEO continued to shed gains after criticisms about its blockchain's performance. Still, the China-based coin is still up by 45.7% this year. The decline in bitcoin's price occurred amid low transaction volumes for the cryptocurrency. According to research firm blockchain.info, transaction volume for bitcoin fell to a two-year low of 200,000 this past week. That's exactly half of the overall transaction volume for bitcoin this past December. The slump in transaction volumes has corresponded with a decline in transaction fees and wait times. It could be due to two reasons: a cooling off of the intense volatility of the past few months or a return to a new normal. The rollout of the lightning network and SegWit initiatives, however, bodes well for a possible future spike in bitcoin's price and volumes. Thanks to its spectacular run up in the last couple of years, the range of predictions for bitcoin's future price cuts a wide swathe. Count Harvard economist Kenneth Rogoff among the pessimists. In an interview with CNBC, Rogoff said that it was more likely that bitcoin would be worth $100 than $100,000 a decade from now. "Basically, if you take away the possibility of money laundering and tax evasion, its actual uses as a transaction vehicle are very small," he said. According to him, the trigger for bitcoin's decline would be a global framework for regulation. But that will take time to develop as governments around the world want to see the technology grow, he said. Rogoff's remarks follow a post by another economist Nouriel Roubini criticizing blockchain, bitcoin's underlying technology. He called blockchain, one of the "most overhyped technologies ever" and provided a number of reasons for his claim. For example, the transaction validation process for popular algorithms such as Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) is slow because it requires agreement from all nodes on a network. "The required storage space and computational power is substantially greater, and the latency higher, than in the case of a centralized application," he writes.

The Trump administration has released an American citizen who was captured and accused of being a member of ISIS, but never charged after more than a year in U.S. custody. His release ends the long legal saga and questions over what power the U.S. government has to detain a U.S. citizen and what power the executive branch has to fight ISIS without explicit congressional authorization — questions that will now remain largely unanswered. The man, who requested anonymity and was referred to as "John Doe" in court filings, was released on Sunday, a spokesperson for the ACLU confirmed to ABC News Monday. The ACLU, which represented the suspect in his battle with the U.S. government, said it could not disclose where he was released because of a confidential settlement agreement with the government, but a U.S. official confirmed he was freed in Bahrain, where his wife and daughter are living, according to the New York Times. "This is a victory our client fought for long and hard. The victory sends a strong message that the president cannot take away an American's liberty without due process, and it shows the continuing importance of judicial review," ACLU senior staff attorney Jonathan Hafetz said in a statement. "John Doe," whom the Times identified as Abdulrahman Ahmad Alsheikh, was originally detained in September 2017 by Kurdish forces of the Syrian Democratic Army, America's ally on the ground in Syria, who then handed him over to U.S. officials. The U.S. government argued that because he was an "enemy combatant" who was captured on the battlefield working for ISIS, he could be detained indefinitely, citing the 2001 Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF)that gives the president the legal ability to go after al Qaeda, the Taliban, and their supporters. But the ACLU and "John Doe" denied the allegations against him and argued that the AUMF did not cover the war against ISIS. They demanded that "John Doe" be charged or released. Afterward, the U.S. instead proposed dropping "John Doe" in Syria near where he was first picked up, leaving him with his clothes, $4,210 in cash — the same amount he had when he was captured — a new cell phone, and "sufficient food and water to last for several days," according to a government filing. Shortly after that, according to the ACLU, the government began settlement discussions with them, continuing to hold "John Doe" in detention in Iraq until his release Sunday. The U.S. government accused "John Doe" of traveling to Syria in 2014 and again in 2015 to join ISIS as he used a Twitter account to promote and interact with the terror group. He told U.S. investigators that he worked for the group after he entered Syria in March 2015 in various administrative roles. But he said that he did so unwillingly as a prisoner after entering Syria as a freelance journalist, according to court filings. Still, the government was allowed to detain a U.S. citizen for more than 13 months without charging him with a crime, a case that some legal experts warn sets a dangerous precedent. ABC News's Luis Martinez contributed to this report.

Les Neuf de Little Rock est une expression qui désigne une crise concernant un groupe de neuf élèves afro-américains (six filles et trois garçons) qui après s'être inscrits à la Little Rock Central High School, furent empêchés d'étudier par les autorités de l'Arkansas dont le gouverneur de l'Arkansas, Orval Faubus voulant maintenir les lois ségrégationnistes issues de l'arrêt Plessy v. Ferguson de 1896. Autorités rebelles à l'arrêt Brown et al. v. Board of Education of Topeka et al de la Cour suprême des États-Unis rendu le mettant fin à la ségrégation raciale dans l'enseignement public. La crise sera telle, qu'il aura fallu que le président des États-Unis Dwight D. Eisenhower fasse intervenir l'armée pour y mettre fin et que le droit soit appliqué. Cette crise est considérée comme l'un des événements marquants du mouvement américain des droits civiques. Elle fut une confrontation entre le pouvoir de l'État de l'Arkansas voulant perpétuer la ségrégation et la volonté du gouvernement fédéral d'y mettre fin. Historique Le contexte L'arrêt Brown du 17 mai 1954 En 1950, la situation de la ségrégation scolaire est disparate, États ont des lois établissant la ségrégation scolaire, États ont aboli la ségrégation scolaire, les autres États ont des lois qui soit n'en parlent pas, soit de tolérance d'un système ségrégué. La question qui se pose est : quels États ont des lois conformes à la Constitution ? Thurgood Marshall, le dirigeant du (LDF) de la National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), va étudier la contradiction pour faire sauter le verrou de la ségrégation instauré par l'arrêt Plessis v. Ferguson , en s'emparant d'un cas qu'il pourra soumettre à la Cour suprême prolongeant ses actions contre la ségrégation au sein des universités. Thurgood Marshall et les juristes de la LDF lancent un appel à toutes les sections de la NAACP pour les alerter s'ils ont un cas de ségrégation et de leur en faire part. De 1952 à 1953, plusieurs cas remontent, parmi ceux-ci, plusieurs cas vont être agrégés au cas Brown v. Board of Education qui sera présenté à la Cour suprême : les cas Bulah v. Gebhart et Belton v. Gebhart, Davis v. Prince Edward County, Briggs v. Elliott, Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka et le cas Bolling v. Sharpe. La NAACP va agréger ces cas pour montrer les contradictions entre les lois hérités de l'arrêt Plessis v. Ferguson et la Constitution. Charles Hamilton Houston et Thurgood Marshall, deux grands avocats de la NAACP, vont lier ces cinq cas en un seul sous le nom de Brown et al. v. Board of Education of Topeka et al qui est déposé auprès de la Cour suprême. Le cas est plaidé par Thurgood Marshall et James Nabrit le en faisant valoir les points suivants : Que dans chacun des cas, des enfants afro-américains s'étaient vu refuser leur admission dans les écoles fréquentées par des enfants blancs en vertu de lois exigeant ou permettant la ségrégation selon la race. Que cette ségrégation prive les plaignants (les parents) de l'égale protection des lois en vertu du quatorzième amendement. Que dans chacune des affaires sauf dans les deux cas du Delaware, un tribunal de district fédéral composé de trois juges a refusé de donner réparation aux plaignants sur la prétendue doctrine séparée mais égale découlant de l'arrêt Plessy v.Ferguson. En vertu de cette doctrine, l'égalité de traitement est accordée lorsque les communautés bénéficient de facilités substantiellement égales, même si ces facilités sont séparées. Dans le cas du Delaware, la Cour suprême du Delaware a adhéré à cette doctrine, mais a ordonné que les plaignants soient admis dans les écoles blanches en raison de leur supériorité sur les écoles noires. Que les écoles publiques séparées ne sont pas égales et ne peuvent être rendues égales, et que, par conséquent, elles sont privées de la protection égale des lois garantie par le XIV° amendement. La Cour suprême sous la présidence du juge Earl Warren rend son arrêt le . Celui-ci dans ses attendus fait valoir que l'arrêt Plessy v.Ferguson, ne peut être retenu pour justifier la ségrégation scolaire car concernant non pas l'éducation mais le transport, constate , et conclut : . L'arrêt Brown v. Board II du 31 mai 1955 Juridiquement l'arrêt est une victoire car elle annule toutes lois ségrégationnistes issues de l'arrêt Plessy v. Ferguson, et prononce la fin de la ségrégation au sein des écoles publiques mais dans les faits c'est une semi-victoire, car l'arrêt ne donne aucun calendrier sur la fin de la ségrégation laissant sa mise en place aux procureurs généraux de chaque état. C'est pourquoi est lancée une révision de l'arrêt avec des auditions qui ont lieu du 11 au , les fait énoncés montrent que la déségrégation des écoles varie d'état à un autre, tout en prenant en compte les réalités de la mise en œuvre, les difficultés ne sauraient être utilisées à des fins dilatoires pour ajourner sine die l'effectivité de la déségrégation, aussi la Cour suprême arrête que . L'événement Après l'arrêt Brown v. Board of Education, certains États du Sud vont se rebeller et faire des manœuvres dilatoires pour en empêcher son application, parmi ces États figure l'Arkansas. Les événements commencent le , avec le refus de la Little Rock Central High School d'accepter en son sein neuf étudiants afro-américains : Minnijean Brown-Trickey, Elizabeth Eckford, Gloria Ray Karlmark, Melba Pattillo Beals, Thelma Mothershed-Wair, , Jefferson Thomas, et . La crise Afin que ces étudiants ne puissent accéder à l'établissement d'enseignement secondaire, le gouverneur Orval Faubus, mobilise la Garde nationale de l'Arkansas. Cette crise, qui va durer trois semaines, entre dans l'histoire sous le nom des Little Rock Nine / les Neuf de Little Rock. Le , le juge fédéral ordonne l'ouverture de la Central High School aux Neuf, en vain, la Garde nationale et une foule hostile empêchent de nouveau l'entrée des adolescents. Le , Martin Luther King alors président de la , écrit au président Dwight D.Eisenhower pour qu'il puisse trouver une solution rapide au conflit, il est suivi par , le maire de Little Rock, favorable à la déségrégation qui lui aussi alerte le président Dwight D. Eisenhower. Face à cette crise le président Eisenhower négocie avec le gouverneur Orval Faubus et Woodrow Mann pour trouver une solution à l'amiable, mais les pourparlers aboutissent à une impasse. Le dénouement Le , Woodrow Mann envoie un télégramme au président Dwight D. Eisenhower pour qu'il fasse intervenir des troupes fédérales afin de faire appliquer la loi et d'user du recours à la force comme le prévoit le récent Civil Rights Act de septembre 1957, télégramme dans lequel il dénonce les agitateurs menés par un stipendié d'Orval Faubus, Jimmy Karam. Immédiatement le Président Dwight D. Eisenhower promulgue l'ordre exécutif 10730 qui s'applique le 24 septembre, le gouverneur Orval Faubus est dessaisi de toute autorité sur la Garde nationale, celle-ci est renvoyée à ses cantonnements et la 101 division aéroportée intervient pour escorter et protéger les Neuf dans l'enceinte de la Little Rock Central High School, dénouant ainsi le conflit. Durant ces événements une journaliste locale Daisy Bates est la porte parole des Neuf, elle les accompagne pour entrer à la Central High School, et écrit des articles repris dans la presse nationale qui feront des Neuf une affaire internationale. Bibliographie , , , , , , . Dans la culture populaire Le contrebassiste de jazz Charles Mingus a composé Fables of Faubus en réaction à ces évènements. Les paroles visent directement le gouverneur Orval Faubus : Mingus demande à son batteur, Dannie Richmond : « Nomme-moi quelqu'un qui est ridicule, Dannie. – Gouverneur Faubus ! – Pourquoi est-il si malade et ridicule ? – Il veut interdire les écoles mixtes. – Dans ce cas c'est un fou ! [il hue] Nazi, fasciste, raciste ! » Le titre figure sur l'album Mingus Ah Um, dans une version instrumentale, Columbia ayant eu peur des ennuis que les paroles pourraient lui attirer. L'auteur Annelise Heurtier a également raconté cet épisode d'intégration dans son roman Sweet Sixteen. . Documentaire Le documentaire Nine from Little Rock a été réalisé par Charles Guggenheim en 1964 et a remporté l'Oscar du meilleur court métrage documentaire en 1965.

The Best Camera for Travel and Home: A Full Guide - Around the World "L" Want to take great photos of your family and the world? Read on! When I got the 400th message asking, "Which camera is best for both travel and home?" and "How do I get great photos as easily and affordably as possible?" I knew it was time to write an article on the topic instead of continuing to individually answer each query. I hope this post helps you on your photographic journey! I took this photo in Thailand with the cheapest camera of the options below. The answer to which camera is best for YOU depends on how you plan to use your gear. Below, I lay out a range of options based on my own camera progression, as I've steadily upgraded my photo goods each year since starting this site in 2009, and thus have experienced several levels of equipment. Some links here are affiliates, and any purchases support this site at no extra cost to you. Enjoy! Tokyo, Japan, snapped with my Canon PowerShot. The Canon PowerShot ELPH (See on Amazon) (See on Canon's site) was what I used and loved from 2009 to 2011, and clearly it served me well, providing the first thousand photos for the early years of this site! It's extremely small and inexpensive (you can usually find it for under $200, plus or minus some loot depending on additional features), but it still provides quality photos. This is an excellent point-and-shoot starter choice. Angkor Wat, Cambodia, seen by my compact Canon. Sure, the quality isn't up to par with a "real" camera, but in good light, or with newer phone models, it sure comes close, and the fact that you always have it with you means you can frame those precious moments in time. My guess is that if you're reading this, however, you already have a phone that you take tons of photos with, and you're looking to add a nicer quality camera into the mix. Sweet! Read on. This loving moment was captured with my brother's smartphone. I got the Canon G9X (See on Amazon) (See on Canon's site) in 2012 when my website took off as a business, and I craved a camera upgrade. The G9X is still a point-and-shoot (no interchangeable lenses), and is compact enough to fit in a purse, but the capabilities and image quality are exceptional. As I began to shoot in RAW format and edit my photos with professional software, Lightroom, I swooned at the quality improvement. And this camera isn't just for amateurs — I know several prominent travel bloggers who use and recommend the G9X for many levels of photographer. This Newport, RI scene was grabbed with the camera described above. The Sony a5100 (See on Amazon) (See on FocusCamera) has made me extremely happy since I purchased it in 2014, providing professional photo capabilities in an easy-to-use, affordable, not-too-large package. This is the camera I most recommend to people who want a big step up from point-and-shoot cameras without the bulk, complexity, and expense of a DSLR. In fact, these "mirrorless" cameras with changeable lenses are becoming the hot thing with professionals and amateurs alike. I've also heard great things about another affordable mirrorless, the Sony a6000, but it doesn't provide a flip-up selfie screen like the a5100, and I want my selfies! This photo was when I realized how great my new mirrorless camera was! At this point, you may have picked a camera, but don't stop there! A few dollars more can save you a whole bunch of trouble. (Yes, I learned the importance of each of these camera add-on features the hard way.) Consider getting the following. A larger memory card is absolutely vital for travel, no matter which camera you have. You do NOT want to run out of room on your card right as you step into the Taj Mahal! A Lens Pen (I love these) or other quality method to keep your camera clean is so worth the few bucks it costs. A grucky camera lens can trash all your vacation photos. Camera bags and/or lens cases make a world of difference in keeping your equipment safe. I realized this the day I smashed my first Sony a5100 on the steps of the White House! Lilacs, photographed in Boston with my G9X. Now that I have a camera that allows lens changes, I'm realizing just how important that snout is. The 16-55mm zoom "Kit Lens" that the Sony a5100 comes with is quite good, and I'd recommend sticking with that at first as you get the feel for the camera. It's particularly good for wide-angle landscape and architecture shots, and for anything with good light. This photo required a special lens and editing software, and sure was worth it! The other lens that is a nice upgrade to the Sony Kit Lens is any serious telephoto zoom. I just got a 55-210mm zoom lens because I found a refurbished one on super sale, but if money were no object, a 24-240mm lens is what my photography mentor most recommends, since you can get the wide-angle landscape shots much better with the 24mm end, meaning that for big-picture photography, you wouldn't have to switch back to the kit lens (or another zoomed out glass) like I still do. Dec. 2018 edit: I now use a Zeiss 16-70mm lens that I LOVE which I found on sale, used, at a local camera store. A telephoto lens helps zoom in for cute candids like this. The more practice you get with your camera, the better photographer you become. It's a mathematical fact! To experiment with more high-end cameras or lenses without buying, try borrowing from friends, or using a service like BorrowLenses, a photography equipment rental site my chums rave about. Renting is perfect for big trips like safaris, which need one-time-only intensive equipment. Explore using online software to edit your photos, even briefly. I use and love Lightroom through the Adobe Creative Cloud monthly subscription, but you may prefer something simpler or free. Back up photos. I use both Amazon Drive (free photo storage with Amazon Prime) and a large External Hard Drive… but I'm obsessive about keeping all my pictures safe! Periodically print photos and photo books to decorate your house and give as gifts! The service I use the most is CVS Photo (just make sure to choose the highest quality printing option), but I also dig AdoramaPix, Canvas World, and Walgreens Photo. I printed this photo from our India trip and framed it in our kitchen. Elephant! Sure, there are way more expensive cameras than the ones I've recommended, but consider: might it not make more sense to just periodically get great photographers to take photos of you and yours with their ultra-fancy equipment? Sometimes friends or family will do this for free, as my photographer cousin did with the photo, below, snapped with his swanky Canon 6D. We also hire local professionals to photograph us every few years, which are always so worth it. But… what if you want awesome photos while you're traveling? Enter a new service that I was so excited to learn about: Flytographer, a professional photographer who meets and photographs you AT your vacation destination! I haven't tried it out yet myself, but all the results I've seen from others who've used it have been incredible, and make me eager to sign up. Thankful to my cousin who took this with his fancy camera! Why get a great camera? To capture moments like this! Now, bear in mind that I am a self-taught photographer who is not yet an official "professional" in the field (though I do estimate that I've taken and published tens of thousands of photos over the past eight years of running this blog), so I still have a great deal to learn, and there are many great cameras out there that I haven't yet tried. However, as a traveler and parent, I sure know the importance of an easy, affordable, quality camera, and bet you do, too. I welcome your questions and thoughts in the comments section. Do share! Worth it!! I'm still looking for good camera options and this list definitely helps! Great list and since I am planning to go for a new camera I have decided on the Sony mirrorless because everyone seems to be raving about them. Thanks for the tip about the flip screen, but since I am not big on selfies maybe the A6000 will suit me. Must also recommend a GoPro in terms of waterproof and action cameras right? I haven't used the GoPro, myself, but everyone into action photography (with the potential to get it wet or drop it) raves about it, so you're probably right! I use the same 50mm F1.8 lense for my food photos and agree it gives great shots. It is also much lighter to carry around! Man is this extensive! It's one thing to have the eye, but having great gear makes a noticeable difference. My dad used to develop photos the old fashion way and helped me out tremendosly when I bought my first DSLR, especially with the accessories. The lens pen is a life saver! This is such a fascinating and useful post – not least because I have discovered there is such a thing as a lens pen, which I am going to purchase right now! I love how you've progressed in your usage of different cameras. I think I need to be braver…. I learned about the Lens Pen from a wonderful blogger named Stephanie. Very thankful to her for the recommendation! Previously, I was schlepping around a spray bottle and disposable paper "cloths." I do still use those for "deep cleans" of my lenses, but don't take them on most outings. Canon and Sony.. well, aren't WE imaganitive! Writing about travel cameras while failing to mention the Fujifilm x100 series and the Leica Q constitutes journalistic malpractice. Sad. Thanks for adding the tip to check out Fujifilm and Leica. I've heard good things about them, I simply haven't tried them, myself, and this article documents the cameras I've had extensive experience with. Which aspects of Leica and Fujifilm do you prefer to Sony and Canon? First of all, congratulations on a great article! I have also heard great things about the Fujifilm and the Leica. I haven't tried them myself, but like I said, the pros out there write extensively about them and give them rave reviews. They are professional cameras on steroids, but the problem is that their price also runs on steroids. I highly commend you for your article. You tried to provide a general answer to commonly asked questions about a great but inexpensive camera that one could use in one's trips without getting another mortgage, and you stuck to your point. I don't see anything wrong in leaving more extensive reviews of other cameras to websites that devote themselves to professional photography as opposed to travel websites. Sure, some photographers also write articles on travel photography, but they try to cover as many photography genres as possible as the professional photography websites they are, which includes travel articles. Thanks for your thoughts, Douglas! I agree that what's scared me off those two brands is the price. So many useful tips and resources here – what a great post! Great question! My photography mentor is about to come out with an online class. I'll update this article with the link the moment it's ready! Intrigued about mirrorless – I'm a DSLR junkie so my cameras get heavier and heavier the more photos I take. You're getting great results, though. Oh goodness Lillie! You put my photography skills to shame. But I did peep that you have a photographer mentor. I need to get me one of those so that I can up my game. Hmmm…taking mentees? LOL! As always, beautiful shots! Definitely get a camera for that trip! Any of the options on this list will do what you want (WiFi is pretty standard on cameras now), so you shouldn't need to break the bank for a major quality and storage upgrade from the iPhone. Let us know what you decide and how it goes!

Chapter 19A: Bitter Cold Serenes Forest > Binding Blade > Scripts > Translation Script > Chapter 19A: Bitter Cold On the World Map After defeating Martel and finding their way out of the forest, The Etrurian Army faced the blizzards common of Ilia's winters. Ilia's harsh climate was a natural defense in itself against invaders. Sigune, flightleader of the Pegasus Knights that had turned to Bern, was preparing to attack Roy, coupled with Ilia's greatest natural weapon. Opening Cutscene Soldier: "Captain! The enemy has arrived. They are on the other side of the mountain." Sigune: "So, they've arrived. …The battle will start soon." "Captain, are you sure?" "About what?" "The Etrurian Army is saying that will liberate us from Bern. In that case, we could gain independence…" "Do you really believe what they say? What idiot would fight a war for the sake of others? Once they defeat Bern, they'll just establish themselves as the next dictator." "Then it's better to be with Bern. They're better at warfare." "Come now, we have more immediate problems. We've got to get rid of the enemy that's right in front of us first. Are the ballistas ready?" "Yes. The archers are all at their stations." "Good! Shoot at them from a distance… They'll be floundering around in the dark in this powerful blizzard. Observe nature's wrath…" (Scene switches to Roy) Roy: "Such strong wind and hail… I can't see three meters in front of me." Niime: "Ilia's winters are always like this. This is expected if you're fighting a battle at this time of the year." "We must attack now so that Bern doesn't have the time to recover." "That's true. It would be a disaster if the Dark Dragon really was brought back into this world." "I was thinking… Maybe the Dark Dragon is in human form as well." "Perhaps. Maybe all the Dragons are in human form now. I've also heard stories of Dragons in human form living with people." "Hm? Did you say something?" "No, nothing." "I don't know anything specific, but I've read in an ancient scroll that Dragons started taking human form only after the Ending Winter." "The Ending Winter…" "You've heard about it, right?" "Yes, only in legend. 'At the Winder of Ends, the laws of nature were turned upside down. Day became night, and summer became winter.'" "That's it. These scrolls are so old and damaged so I couldn't decipher all of them, but one thing is clear. The Ending Winter was a disaster powerful enough to bend and twist the planet." "What caused it?" "Who knows… Popular belief says that the laws of nature were twisted when the Dragons unleashed vast amounts of magical power, but I have no idea about what really happened. But it does seem certain that Dragons started taking human form after the Ending Winter. It must be more than coincidence." "Well, either way, the truth lies in Bern." 13th Turn "Captain! Other Pegasus Knight squads are headed this way to assist us!" "Really? That would help. Too bad for the enemy… They'll be in a panic if they suddenly get attacked from all directions when they can't see in this snowstorm…" Battle with Sigune "So…you made it through this blizzard and cold? Congratulations. But it's over. You shall end…right here, right now." (If you use Thany) "You… You're Juno's youngest sister. You would fight me?" Thany: "By the honor of an Ilian knight… I won't go easy on you. All right?" (If you use Tate) "Tate? What are you doing here? Oh…you've joined the Etrurian side." Tate: "Captain Sigune…" "You know the Ilian knightly code. I won't go easy on you." Defeating Sigune "…Well, well… So I'm the one…to die… But maybe…I had already died…a long time…ago…" After Beating the Map "Merlinus, I need you to send this letter to Bishop Yodel in Etruria." Merlinus: "A letter? May I ask what it says?" "It's the story we heard from Niime about the Dragons." "Oh? What did you discuss with her about the Dragons?" "It'll be long if I tell you. I haven't sealed the letter yet, so you can look through it if you want." "All right. Let me see…" (Merlinus leaves. Guinevere appears) Guinevere: "Is something wrong, Princess Guinevere?" "…I have come to speak about my brother." "! …Are you sure?" "Yes… I want you to know before we enter Bern…about the tragedies that have occurred. You asked earlier if my brother murdered the former king." "In short…it is true." "! Then King Zephiel indeed killed his own father to seize the throne…" "No? He didn't kill his father to get the throne?" "No… Our father was the one who tried to kill Zephiel first." "What!? Then King Zephiel…" "He…couldn't bear the abuse he was taking from our father. And so he…" "What… Why did…" (Merlinus appears) "The Dragons are indeed are mysterious species… Hm? What is the matter?" "No…it is nothing. Perhaps later…" (Guinevere leaves) "…Did I appear at a bad time?" "No, it's okay. Did you send the letter?" "Yes. I read through it, then sealed it and had it sent." "Oh… All right, thanks." (Merlinus leaves) "…Why did the former king try to murder his own son…?"

Kay Bourne Arts Report – Issue #87 January 25th, 2011 | Published in Kay Bourne Arts Report "NIGHT CATCHES US" ON BIG SCREEN IN BOSTON DAVENPORT: FROM "NEIGHBORS" TO "BROKE- OLOGY" DRUMMING, MUSIC AND ALVIN TERRY IN RUINED WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO…… BILL T. JONES' "BODY AGAINST BODY" AT THE ICA RICK BERRY ART AT NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY SOUTH AFRICAN ART AT B.U. PART OF TIM HAMILL SERIES HATIAN ARTIST EXHIBITS AT THE MIDDLE EAST Guided visit of the Museum of the NCAAA 5 PLAYWRIGHTS: LOVE LIKE THEY SEE IT AT BOSTON U. (pictured: Kerry Washington and Anthony Mackie) African American filmmaker Tanya Hamilton finds a mystery in recent history with her fictional "Night Catches Us." At the height of the Black Panther movement in Philadelphia, a policeman is shot, a Black Panther lies dead in a shoot-out with the police, and an activist leaves town under the cloud of suspicion that he fingered the Panther's where-abouts. . Ten years later, Marcus returns. The Color of Film Collaborative in association with The Roxbury International Film Festival (with Future Boston Alliance and Night Life Executives) premieres the New England screening of "Night Catches Us," directed and written by Tanya Hamilton. The urban family drama starring Anthony Mackie and Kerry Washington will screen in a commercial theater for one night only. The film event takes place Thursday, Jan. 27 at 7:30 is at The Stuart Street Playhouse, 200 Stuart St., downtown Boston theater district. "We live in a world where we continue to combat a lot of the issues that the Black Panthers were concerned about," filmmaker Hamilton told the KBAR in a recent phone conversation about why she believes her movie has relevance to today. She also wanted to tell a story that contains the Panthers' concern for "the idea of community, a movie that gives a voice to the people who are working class and working poor." Other concerns she admires in the Panthers' ideals was their interest in health and how to manage health issues on a community level; how to address poverty, "alleviating it and the need for it, and their belief in getting legal aid to people who can't afford lawyers." In the movie, Patricia, played by Kerry Washington, moves throughout the community in her role as a lawyer for little or no recompense. She, like the Panthers with their free breakfast for children, provides neighborhood children with milk and cereal and juice at her kitchen table. (Interestingly, many of the ideas thought up by the Black Panthers later became government services, such as breakfast in schools for children below the poverty line). "The role of women seemed largely to be as workers for the Party," comments Hamilton, who adds that Patricia, as with the other characters, however is not a stereotype but multi-dimensional. Another character points up an aspect of the Panthers less commented on, "as men to look up to by young people who were fatherless," she said. This aspect is revealed in the character of Jimmy, played by Amari Cheatom. Other principals in the drama are Jamie Hector as DoRight and Wendell Pierce as Detective Gordon. Filmmaker Hamilton says she "finds their world fascinating. There's a great humanity in it and it is an under-told story which has been misrepresented as one-dimensional." She also finds fascinating in the Black Panthers story, "the idea of being at war yet in your own neighborhood and your own country." Hamilton, 42, was born in Spanish Town, which is about 20 minutes outside of Kingston, Jamaica. Her mom brought her and her brother here in the 70ties where they settled in Silver Springs, Maryland. She attend Cooper Union and went on to graduate school at Columbia where she majored in painting (the design of her scenes in "Night Catches Us" reflects her original passion). Two of Hamilton's films have been shown at the Roxbury Film Festival, but Color of Film Collaborative's founder and artistic director Lisa Simmons says that by July of this year "Night Catches Us" will already be out on DVD (as part of Magnolia Pictures distribution). "We wanted to give people the opportunity to see the film on a big screen, as well as, create a buzz for the festival coming this summer." By Kay Bourne Tickets for the movie Night Catches US (pictured: Johnny Lee Davenport) Johnny Lee Davenport has scored a trifecta! Last month he earned raves for his role as a bereaved dad in "Vengeance Is the Lord's" at The Huntington Theater Company. Currently he's an adjunct professor and beleaguered dad who looks out his window to see that the neighbors who've just moved in constitute his worst nightmare in Company One's production of the controversial "Neighbors" (a debut script from Brandon Jacobs-Jenkins, 26). And even before that run concludes Feb. 5, the Boston-based Equity actor starts rehearsals at the Lyric Stage for "Broke-ology" about a family at a crossroads. Says Davenport about the hat trick, "I am really grateful." When the KBAR began our conversation with Davenport he was on the bus in a snow storm traveling to New York for an audition, this time hoping to land a spot with the Pennsylvania Shakespeare Company. He dreams of being in every one of the Bard's plays, having chalked up 26 to date. The Equity try-out is for "The Comedy of Errors," one of the plays he's missing in his quest. At this point his phone – or mine – stops transmitting. The next day Davenport is back in Boston, having not even been seen by the casting director. "Too many actors turned out," he said. Acting is a highly competitive occupation. "I never thought I would work in my chosen field," confides Davenport, who, born in Shreveport, Louisiana, grew up in the Jim Crow South. Not many years back there was a dearth of roles for actors of color but opportunities have multiplied thanks to emerging black playwrights, area black theaters, more experienced African American directors, and theater companies interested in diversity. Davenport sees himself as a Boston-based actor. He likes the city's "history of audacity" such as the Boston Tea Party and its environment that "fosters African American theater companies." He says of the third play in this trilogy of roles that he is pleased to have been asked by the Lyric's artistic director Spiro Veloudos to work at his company. "He saw me in one of the Shakespeare plays I did with Actors Shakespeare Project. Afterwards, he told me that he needed to find a vehicle for me. "Recently he phoned me with the news he had this play "Break-ology" he'd like to stage but he wouldn't do it without me. It was all very flattering." The play will be directed by Benny Sato Ambush, a professor at Emerson College in the theater department formerly with American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco and George Bass's Rites and Reason black-oriented theater on the campus of Brown University. "Broke-ology" was written by emerging playwright Nathan Louis Jackson, 32, a Kansas City denizen who saw his family drama featuring a father with MS like his own father staged at Lincoln Center. Break-ology opens March 25, running through April 23. Neighbors is now playing, through Februay 5th at the Boston Center for the Arts. By Kay Bourne Official Website of Company One (pictured Alvin Terry) In a Congelese bar and bordello, the women raped and brutalized by soldiers – and because of their condition now ostracized by their families – play host to men out for an evening, among them the very men who terrorized them. Lynn Nottage's 2009 Pulitzer Prize for drama, Ruined, currently at the Huntington Theater Company stage through Feb. 6, gives voice to these casualties of a civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo that has raged for decades, while suggesting the reasons behind the horror. As the drummer ensconced on stage throughout the play, Alvin Terry observes the goings-on, while playing the rhythms that back the dancing and singing. "I love playing music," he said in a recent interview with the KBAR. "I feel it's something I'm supposed to be doing." Terry, who is married to sculptor Fern Cunningham, has performed with such artists as Archie Shepp, Avery Sharpe, Ricky ford, John Faddis, Leonard Brown, and Bill Lowe. For "Ruined," the playwright herself wrote several songs to be performed by the girls in Mama Nadi's bar accompanied by a two-person band of guitar and drums. As well, composer/arranger Aaron Meicht provided music for the Huntington production to be performed by the electric guitar and a makeshift percussion set designed in collaboration with Meicht and Terry. Meicht notes that the biggest difference in the music from production to production is the percussion because of how much freedom he encourages the drummer to have while building his drum set. Terry has included a Makuta drum (a traditional instrument from Central Africa a bass drum made from a rubber trash can, various cymbals, and a few shakers. "Ruined" is Terry's second theatrical venture. Last season he performed in the Company One production of "The Emancipation of Many and Miz Ellie" by Lois Roach, which was directed by Victoria Marsh at the Boston Center for the Arts. The drama took place at the end of the Civil War in the plantation South. "Our heritage is our culture. The way we speak. The way we walk. Our accomplishments. Our talents that we have. It's all a little bit different from other people because of what we endured. Our people who made something out of nothing. They believed that God would come and save them. That's how they endured," he said. Terry is pleased with the compositions and arrangements provided by Meicht which Terry says is in the tradition of Central Africa. And he can see the influence too of African American music on the Congolese music performed in Mam Nadi's bar. "There's a part where the soldiers are dancing to the music we're playing. It's a steady beat, almost like disco but very layered, as layered as an onion." He is disturbed by the rapes that are the background story to the goings on in the bar. "It is very difficult for me to watch it," he says of the parts of the play that reference that violence to women. "I'm hurt by it." "I don't like the mighty trampling over the weak," he says of the soldiers' behavior generally. He says of the play overall and his role in it, "you laugh, you cry. We move you every minute. One minute you are happy, the next you are plunged into one horror or another. And the music carries you." In the final analysis, says Terry, "it's like the blues. You feel better because you got it out. 'Ruined' is really a great play." Official Website of Huntington Theater Company (pictured: The Warrior G.R.I.O.T.) The interview with poet Michael Bonds currently of Atlanta launches a series of conversations KBAR will run with artists who were active in Boston but now ply their art in other places. 1. How did Boston inspire you as an artist? I grew up in Boston and on those serious and animated streets of Roxbury, Dorchester and Mattapan. As with many "urban communities" it wasn't difficult to find inspiration in all the "nouns" that make up the grammar of my city. All I had to do was come up different "adjectives" to describe Boston. As New York has approximately "8 million stories", so too does Boston have a number of its own stories to tell. Just how many, I don't know. But I can honestly say that I starred in, witnessed and maybe even authored in some of the sentences, paragraphs and chapters that make up the biography of my city. I love Boston. 2. What is your happiest memory regarding a) living and b) creating in Boston? My happiest memories of Boston are the wonderful experiences I had living amongst the diverse cultures that live in such a intimate environment. The communal aspect I discovered after my brush with the darker side of life in Boston gave me a healthy respect for the important things like freedom of speech, religion and culture. In my opinion, Boston is a microcosm of America. With its people, attitudes, injustices and history it wasn't difficult to find my niche and create my own space in Boston from which I could launch myself and my ideas. 3. What supports for your art did you find in Boston? My arts found support mainly from the community. However, being an art activist I was supported by the politics of the city and the social justice affiliates and nonprofit sector. 4. What drew you to where you now create? As an artist there comes a time when you must grow and living in Atlanta allows me the opportunity to explore my art and discover my potential. I'm sure I will probably out grow this place as well. 5. How has your new location affected your art? Atlanta has opened doors and made me one of many again. In Boston I was Warrior and known by many so it wasn't difficult to find approval. Here I am hungry again and building a new network. 6. Do you think of yourself as a Bostonian or otherwise? Of course I am a Bostonian. I will always be a Bostonian from Roxbury. As Ed OG of Ed OG & the Bulldogs said it: "I'm from the Bury the Bury but not the fruit y'all . . . 7. What sort of a life have you made for yourself where you now are? I am graduating from Bauder College with a degree in Criminal Justice in May of 2011. I have a new grandchild. YES a "Grandchild" and I am developing a youth program designed after the many wonderful and effective programs I worked with in Boston. The Warrior is an internationally respected poet, author, spoken word artist and people mover (motivator) from Boston's Roxbury community a member of the "Blackout Arts Collective," he won Boston's "Best Spoken Word Album" Award in 2008 at the "New England Urban Music Awards." Published in various anthologies, he is the author of ""Gunz, Poems & Rosez, the Experience Strength and Hope of Michael Warrior Bonds" He has performed with Dead Prez, Saul Williams, (Harvard University),Chico Debarge, (Hartford CT.) and Hip Hop legends Kurtis Blow and Whoodini (Rissell Auditorium, Boston) just to name a few.

Food, food, and MORE food. The 14thannual event highlights the best of VI cuisine and beverages and a packed room of eager taste-testers got to try it all. "I think it is a great way for the chefs in the area and the businesses to come out and show their culinary skills and we're just glad to be a part of it," Darin Richardson from St. Thomas said. Showing off their culinary skills, Julius "The Chef" Jackson. But rather than cook the food himself, Jackson taught his fellow cooks at My Brothers Workshop in St. Thomas and they wiped it up the recipe. "My trainers and my trainee all work together and make all of these awesome pastries so we have a quite of bit of variety today," Jackson said. The Taste of Two Islands is meant to highlight the best of both St. Thomas and St. John. St. Croix has their own "Taste of St. Croix" event. But only one St. John restaurant was featured. Workers say it's hard post storm to find the staff to man the restaurant when they come to showcase the food at this event. "We wanted to make sure the name of the event wasn't a lie we are, I understand, the only representatives from St. John, so we're proud to be here proud to represent the Island," Chefs at Lucky Chops in St. John said. This year the event helped let people know what restaurants are back open after last years' storms and get the word out about their business. Those trying to food had a way to get involved too. Judges had the tough job of trying all 24 dishes. Then they chose the winners. Mel's in St. Thomas came in third. Jackson and his crew from My Brothers Workshop came in second. And Delly Deck in St. Thomas took both 1stprize and people's choice. Full stomachs and smiling faces wrapped up the evening, with many saying they can't wait to come back again next year for another taste.

A quiet spirit, filled with love that has moved beyond "ego" and vanity and offers unconditional spiritual healing and uplifting. Your happiness is the key to being alive. Laugh, love, smile and bring pleasure to your life. Regenerate yourself and you regenerate and heal others. Achievements derived from your creativity – shape life in a way that separates you from your playful imagination. To achieve success, you discipline and even suppressed your dreams – directing all your creative powers into socially responsible achievements and confining your natural energy flow. Always trying to maintain a calm exterior may cause you to subconsciously suppress your feelings and troubled emotions. Balance of your imagination and discipline is essential now – lighten up and have some fun. Healer by example and by touch. Faith is love, centered on the one God. What feelings are you keeping under firm control? In what ways are you a care – giver or counselor? Who cares for you deeply? How have you established yourself creatively? In the first position: You will be looked to for your authority and position, but more so for your compassionate use of your position. It falls to you to show that people may need leaders and organization to avoid chaos and work efficiently, but they do not need anyone to make them work or do anything for that matter. You seek to motivate by example. In the second position: You have someone – a family member, a partner, an angel – that you can fall back on. But more than financial or physical help, this is the strong shoulder to cry on, the caring ear that can listen to your problems. This man can help heal your wounds. In the third position: Think well on this card for he is coming to you in one guise or another. For there is order to be put in your emotional/creative house, to take charge and make things right. More leadership and control is needed here. In the fourth position: Your earliest tapes of imprint are of this loving father figure, perhaps your own father. But it could be of an older family figure such as a grandfather or of course someone outside of the family, perhaps someone famous whom you came to admire. In the fifth position: The mind is on this king of the emotions. He may be a key player in the game on your table. You are being both authoritative and considerate in this matter. In the sixth position: Here comes a mature masculine influence in your near future and of course it may be delivered in person. As a result you will be more focused and purposeful in your emotional affairs and your creative projects can flourish with such motivation and encouragement behind them. In the seventh position: Here on the mental horizon in the near future comes power with a heart. This can be the partner you have needed to help you realize your goals. For with the intellect here are the personality and people skills to work miracles. In the eighth position: This king may be on your doorstep. He brings the possibilities of good times and rejoicing as he shows you how to do your chores and have fun at the same time. In the ninth position: The heart is on this king of the emotions. He may be an object of your affection or the centerpiece of a creative project underway. In the tenth position: Here is the support, the energy and resources that you need to secure your Emotional/Creative plane and it may well come in the physical personage of the King of Cups. It may however, be the access to what he represents. You must be able to wear both masks of the theater in the Emotional Plane – the smile and the frown.

I agree. You cannot run an effective advertising campaign without someone with some experience, knowledge and skills in online advertising (specifically Google AdWords according to your example). Unless you have some understanding of how online advertising works and how to set the whole thing up, you "will" be throwing money away; something not many entrepreneurs and small business owners can do.

Q: Setting a Foreign Key Value Back to Null in Entity Framework I have been unable to save a record to a SQL Server database when removing a foreign key value from the record. As an example, I have an existing BatchDetail record with a primary key BatchDetailID = 10. And it is associated with an existing RunDetail record that has a primary key RunDetailID = 20, and a foreign key BatchDetailID = 10. I want to disassociate the RunDetail from the BatchDetail by setting RunDetails.BatchDetailID to null. Here is the error message: A referential integrity constraint violation occurred: The property value(s) of 'BatchDetail.BatchDetailID' on one end of a relationship do not match the property value(s) of 'RunDetail.BatchDetailID' on the other end. Here are my class definitions: public class RunDetail { public int RunDetailID { get; set; } public Nullable<int> BatchDetailID { get; set; } public virtual BatchDetail BatchDetail { get; set; } } public class BatchDetail { public int BatchDetailID { get; set; } public virtual ICollection<RunDetail> RunDetails { get; set; } } The error occurs when a RunDetail object has a BatchDetailID value, and I try to set it back to null: public class MyController : Controller { private ISvr _myService; public ISvr MyService { get { return _myService ?? (_myService = new MyHandler().GetMyService()); } set { _myService = value; } } public void UpdateBatch(int id) { foreach (var batchDetail in MyService.ReadBatchDetails(id)) { var runDetail = MyService.ReadRunDetail(batchDetail.RunDetailID); runDetail.BatchDetailID = null; runDetail.BatchDetail = null; // I have tried with, and without, this line MyService.UpdateRun(runDetail ); } } } public class MyHandler { public ISvr GetMyService() { return new MySvr(); } } [ServiceBehavior(ConcurrencyMode = ConcurrencyMode.Multiple, InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.PerCall)] public class MySvr : IMySvr { public void UpdateRun(RunDetail runDetail) { using (var myEntities = new MyEntities()) { myEntities.RunDetails.Attach(runDetail); // This is where the exception hits myEntities.Entry(runDetail).State = EntityState.Modified; myEntities.SaveChanges(); } } } All other record updates, including changing the foreign key value to another, work correctly. Can anyone see what my flaw is? A: The problem was rooted in a method that I did not include in my question. When I retrieved the parent BatchDetail record, I included the "RunDetails" records: public List<BatchDetail> ReadBatchDetails(int id) { using (var myEntities = new MyEntities()) { return myEntities.BatchDetails .Include("RunDetails") // This is the problem .AsNoTracking().ToList(); } } By creating a new method that does not Include("RunDetails"), the problem is resolved: public List<BatchDetail> ReadBatchDetailsWithoutRunDetails(int id) { using (var myEntities = new MyEntities()) { return myEntities.BatchDetails.AsNoTracking().ToList(); } } A: I inserted 1 BatchDetail and 1 RunDetail as follow. using (var db = new AppContext()) { db.BatchDetails.Add(new BatchDetail { Id = 1 }); db.RunDetails.Add(new RunDetail { Id = 1, BatchDetailId = 1 }); db.SaveChanges(); } Then here is the result that throws the same error. using (var db = new AppContext()) { // This is okay. var x = new RunDetail { Id = 1, BatchDetailId = 1, BatchDetail = new BatchDetail { Id = 1 } }; db.RunDetails.Attach(x); } using (var db = new AppContext()) { // This is okay. var x = new RunDetail { Id = 1, BatchDetailId = null, BatchDetail = null }; db.RunDetails.Attach(x); } using (var db = new AppContext()) { // This is okay. var x = new RunDetail { Id = 1, BatchDetailId = 1, BatchDetail = null }; db.RunDetails.Attach(x); } using (var db = new AppContext()) { // A referential integrity constraint violation occurred: The property // value(s) of 'BatchDetail.Id' on one end of a relationship do not match the property // value(s) of 'RunDetail.BatchDetailId' on the other end. var x = new RunDetail { Id = 1, BatchDetailId = null, BatchDetail = new BatchDetail { Id = 1 } }; db.RunDetails.Attach(x); } It should be the same in your case.

NORTH AMERICA–The National Football League and Bud Light have teamed up to reveal 28 new aluminum bottle designs to celebrate NFL teams across the country ahead of the 2017-18 season. Each can/bottle will also feature a Snapcode to unlock Bud Bowl-style game and team-specific Snaptchat filters. This year's aluminum bottle and can designs will feature each team logo as well as catch phrase or rallying cry from each NFL franchise. Additionally, each can/bottle will feature Snapcodes that consumers can use to unlock Bud Bowl-style game and team-specific Snapchat filters. The Snapcodes will also unlock a chance to win Super Bowl LII tickets. In addition to the 28 new aluminum bottle designs, Bud Light will also release a special 36-pack of cans with all 32 NFL teams represented. The updated looks are now available in select markets and will be available nationwide later this month.

--quiet Request for error messages, print nothing otherwise. --verbose Accepted but has no effect at this time. The --info command (capital i for the short hand: -I) is used to print out the information of a package: its control file and some statistics. The Debian package version. This is always 2.0 since we only support that version at this point. The size of the package in bytes, the size of the control.tar.gz file inside the package, and the size of the control.tar.gz file when decompressed. Note that the files are printed in the order they appear in the control.tar.gz file. dpkg, on the other hand, prints the files in the order specified on the command line. When this feature is used, the list of Files is not printed out. By default the content of the control file is printed to the output. If you specified a filename on the command line then the control file is printed only if one of the filesnames is 'control'. If no control file was found in the archive, then an error is printed out instead. This happens whether or not you display the control file as it is mandatory. To print out just one or a few select fields, see the --field command line option. If no md5sums file was found in the archive, then an error is printed out. This happens whether or not you display the md5sums file as it is mandatory. When using the quiet mode (with --quiet) the function becomes a quick verification process which ensures that your archive includes a control file, an md5sums file, and that the Debian version is 2.0. This verification is faster than the --verify process since it skips on verifying the md5sum of each file in the data.tar.gz archive. The --info command line option can be used with the name of installed packages. However, it is preferable to use the --print-avail to be more compatible with dpkg.

Rasavangi is very similar to arachuvitta sambar. They differ in the ingredients used for roasting and grinding. Whenever we buy the eggplant(brinjal) at home, my thatha(grandpa) will ask to make rasavangi. It is through him I came to know about this recipe. But this is the first time I made this at home. It differs in taste from arachuvitta samabar. And I felt that it suits best during winter and rainy days. Wash the toor dal and pressure cook it. Cool it and mash well. Add some water in tamarind and pressure cook it in a separate vessl along with the dhal. In a Kadai, add a tsp of oil, fry all the ingredients mentioned under "roast and grind" till the coconut turns brown. Grind it into a smooth paste with water. In the same Kadai, fry the brinjals for 3 to 4 minutes. Next add the tamarind extract, turmeric powder, jaggery and salt to taste. Let this boil on medium flame till the brinjals are cooked. Now add the cooked channa dhal. Mix well and let it come to a boil. Then add the ground coconut paste, mix well and let it simmer for 4 to 5 minutes. Heat a small frying pan with remaining oil. Add the mustard seeds and curry leaves. Once they crackle, pour it over the prepared rasavangi.

Fiio X3 (Second Generation) Review: Mid Range, High Resolution Fiio X3 (Second Generation) Review: Mid-Range, High-Resolution By Ali Pardiwala | Updated: 9 June 2015 12:35 IST Fiio's first-ever portable high resolution audio player, the Fiio X3, has enjoyed considerable success since its launch in 2013. It is held in high regard by both users and reviewers, and it sold in huge numbers. It also set the stage for the excellent X1 and X5 high-res players, which have won the industry over with stunning performance. The X1 and X5 are at two ends of the cost spectrum. The Fiio X1 is promoted as a wallet-friendly high-resolution audio player, and represents tremendous value, while the Fiio X5 sits at the top of the range, offering expensive, reference-grade performance and a sense of drive like no other. The new Rs. 14,999 Fiio X3 (Second Generation) sits in between those two extremes. It seeks to offer a bit more than the budget X1, while keeping costs below X5 levels. Finally, key improvements over the old X3 include a complete redesign to bring it in line with the X1 and X5, and new and improved internal components. We take a look at the new X3 in our review. Specifications and Design You could easily mistake the Fiio X3 (Second Generation) for the X1, since the dimensions and looks are nearly the same. The X3 is marginally thicker and weighs a little bit more. The casing is still metal, and looks and feels excellent. Also, the inclusion of a separate line/coaxial out port on the top of the device distinguishes it from the budget model. Other differences are on the inside of the device: while the X1 and X5 use Texas Instruments digital-to-analogue converter chips, Fiio has opted for a Cirrus Logic DAC here. Amplification is through a Texas Instruments chip similar to the one used on the Fiio X5. Other differences over the X1 are external DAC support, DSD file format support, a larger 2,600mAh battery, and a greater drive ability; the X3 (Second Generation) can drive headphones rated at 16-150 Ohms of resistance. As is the case with the entire Fiio 'X' range, the X3 (Second Generation) has no internal storage. A single, exposed microSD card slot provides the storage capability, and supports cards of up to 128GB. The USB port is at the bottom, while the headphones socket remains at the top. Power and volume keys are still on the side, while navigation is still carried out using a jog dial. Five hard keys on the front control the play/pause, next, previous, return and menu functions. The 2-inch display is the same as the one on the X1, and only serves to give you visual cues for navigation. The design works for the most part, so we're pleased on the whole. Unfortunately, Fiio is still using the same terrible user interface on the X3 (Second Generation) that we saw on both the X1 and X5. Scrolling through hundreds of tracks to find the one you want is still a cumbersome and frustrating affair. We usually used the device in shuffle mode simply because it felt as though playing a lottery with our music was less tedious than picking tracks every fewminutes. The customisable equaliser is an improvement over that of the X1, with more frequency bands. It's an excellent equaliser, and works wonders in tweaking the sound to how you like it. However on the whole, the interface needs improvement. Fiio users have been waiting on a much-needed firmware update for a while now, but it's still nowhere in sight. As we did with the X1 and X5, we loaded an assortment of audio files onto a 16GB microSD card, including tracks in MP3, WAV, FLAC and M4A file formats. Focus tracks for the review were Deee-Lite's Groove Is In The Heart and Michael Jackson's Scream in 16/44.1 FLAC; and an orchestral version of Sting's Walking On The Moon in M4A. We used the Rock Jaw Alfa Genus, V-Moda XS and Sennheiser Urbanite to listen to the Fiio X3 (Second Generation). We also had our reference Fiio X1 on hand through the test, and compared the X3 (Second Generation) to our test notes on the X5 as well. We also plugged the device into a Windows laptop to test the standalone DAC functionality. We started with what we feel is quite possibly the grooviest track of the 90s, Groove Is In The Heart, along with the V-Moda XS. We could barely tell the difference in the sound between the X1 and X3. Even though the two devices use different DAC and amplification chips, the sound is identical at low volumes. The X3 does tend to perform better at higher volumes than the X1, though. Where the X1 starts to get heavy and a bit too warm for our tastes, the X3 holds its own, quite like the X5. This was particularly noticeable during Deee-Lite's chirpy vocals and the catchy beat in the track. Next up was Michael Jackson's Scream with the Sennheiser Urbanites. The beginning of this track has a deep, resonating bass note which often reveals flaws in headphones and players. There was no such weakness in the Fiio's handling of the note, as well as the rest of the track. Tonal neutrality was maintained impressively through the song, with just a little bit of a decibel drop at the two ends of the frequency range. The quality of the sub-mids particularly stood out, as did the imaging in general. The X3 (Second Generation) remains loyal to the recording and brings out the best in the headphones it's used with, just the X5. Last up, we played the cover of Walking On The Moon, with the superb Rock Jaw Alfa Genus plugged in. These earphones have a knack for enhancing detail, and the Fiio X3 (Second Generation) did a fantastic job of helping the track along, especially its busier percussion-driven sections. We could tell that there was a faint improvement in both detail and imaging over the X1. However, the X3 doesn't quite achieve the same levels of sound performance as the X5, and the latter remains Fiio's reference-grade player. Fiio claims that the device will run for over 11 hours on a full charge when driving output at 32Ohms at moderate volumes and with the display off. We got an average of about 10 hours of run time on a full charge, but this involved constant use of the display and lower impedance earphones that are easier to drive. What is disappointing about this is that despite the larger battery, the X3 (Second Generation) provides the same amount of battery life as the X1. An excellent feature that Fiio has added to the X3 (Second Generation) is a Deep Sleep Mode. When the device is switched on but not in use, it goes into a battery-preserving sleep mode where most functions are shut off to conserve power. However, a single touch of a button will wake it up instantly. This is rather convenient, and fixes one of the minor gripes we had with the other two devices in the X range. The Fiio X3 (Second Generation) is another victory from the Chinese company that never fails to impress us. It isn't quite the budget champion that the X1 is, nor does it have the reference grade performance that the X5 provides. But it takes enough from both extremes and provides a solid mid-range product that keeps Fiio's flag flying high. It improves on some aspects of the sound of the X1 and even adds standalone DAC functionality. However, this increase in price is significant, and the new X3 costs nearly twice as much as the entry-level X1. If you need standalone DAC functionality or are just keen to tweak your sound that little bit without spending too much, then the X3 (Second Generation) is for you. However, if you're trying to keep costs down, the X1 offers practically the same level of performance at a much lower price. The Fiio X3 (Second Generation) is available now through Headphonezone.in. Price (MRP): Rs. 14,999 Looks good and feels well built Tonally balanced, neutral sound Drives headphones well, bringing out the best in them Lots of file formats supported Excellent DAC which can be used in standalone mode Doesn't improve the sound enough over the X1 to justify the price Battery life should have been better User interface desperately needs an overhaul Ratings (Out of 5) Performance: 4.5 Value for money: 3.5 product The original audio player from Fiio makes way for a second generation, as the new mid-range X3 completes the X-range.

John said: This was a really good book! Shame Bukharin couldn't continue his theoretical work, main. His life and death will always be particularly poignant because of that.

He was a man of his times, an advanced thinker and an ardent revolutionary, but still a man of his times. Although it adds nothing to our knowledge of this period, it has been massively reviewed and discussed as I was writing this. The thesis would become a hallmark of Stalinism. It was virtually a memoir, even if names were changed. John McD rated it really liked it Feb 01, Instead of Jews and communists, the national security state tries to enforce political arabesqufs through a fear of Islamic radicals and terrorism. Nevertheless I believe that there was a more complicated, more conflicted psychology involved. The intelligentsia was told that the time for ideological neutrality was over. Bukharin's confession and his motivation became subject of much debate among Western observers, inspiring Koestler's acclaimed novel Darkness at Noon and a philosophical essay by Maurice Merleau-Ponty in Humanism and Terror. Retrieved December 11, In the s, there was a fierce struggle between elements of the Communist Party who favoured a slow and incremental transition to socialism based on market relations, particularly in farming, and those who favoured a much more rapid pace with an emphasis upon industrialisation. These are the ideas of universal relationship, of movement, of change, and the forms of this movement; here the division, or self-differentiation, of the whole, the revealing of opposites and their interpenetration, serve as the motivating principle. There was no chance of this, as Stalin was already engaged in the secret diplomacy heading in the direction of the nazi-soviet pact of that had such tragic consequences for the anti-fascist movement. Nevertheless it persists in collective memory and higher human aspiration, even to he point where those who insist that it is dead believe that they must vanquish any vestige of mourning from those who keep coming to the grave and speak of what they have lost; that they must wipe the wistful smile from the face of anyone who takes pride in having ever called another 'comrade' and remembers meaningful common effort; that they must not allow another generation to imagine a future in continuity with this past. It was an integrative and grounded way of thinking that offered a fresh way into the complex new problems of the era. Such was possible then. After the death of Lenin, Philsophical co-operated with Stalin for a time. Alasdair rated it liked it Jun 02, The book Science at the Crossroads, hastily put together from the soviet papers at that congress, was a milestone in the development of history, philosophy and sociology of science. Bukharin was judicially exonerated of all philosophicao charges and restored to party membership in Bukharin made several notable contributions to Marxist—Leninist thought, most notably The Economics of the Transition Period and his prison writings, Philosophical Arabesques which clearly reveal Bukharin had corrected the 'one-sidedness' of his thought [ how? BolshevikCommunist Party. He considered Philosophical Arabesques as the most important of his prison writings. He could philoophical have envisioned when labouring in his bleak cell to write the tightly handwritten pages of this text that it would be buried in a vault for 54 years, that it would be published in a Russia that had renounced the legacy of the USSR, that it would come to me via 41 e-mail attachments from New York to Dublin in as I faced the task of bridging his world and ours. There was in fact little evidence of sabotage or espionage or even organised opposition on any significant scale by this time. Quoting Lenin, he was wary of the 'mysticism of the idea' and remained resolutely materialist in emphasis. The book broke off in mid-sentence. Although the allegations against original bolshevik leaders were finally and fully exposed as ludicrous and false, it seemed that their communist party did eventually give rise to leaders who would conspire philosophiical restore capitalism. So were others who found themselves between the covers of Science at the Crossroads and Marxism and Modern Thought: Lee, Stalin and the Soviet Union p. The dialectical movement of ideas that is found in Hegel, and that reflects real movement in idealist form, contains elements that are highly valuable.

Meanwhile, Stalin used his control of the Party machine to replace Bukharin's supporters in the Rightist power base in Moscow, trade unions, and the Comintern.

Q: Facebook API to filter user activity to show only specified friends Imaging this situation, I have 1000+ friends on facebook, but I hope to read updates from only a small fraction, eg: 10 close friends. How can I only receive updates from these 10 friends. I don't know how I can achieve this on Facebook. Can I achieve it using facebook API? (Javascript, PHP, Java, etc..) Many thanks! A: Well you've tagged this java,php and javascript but assuming you have the php-sdk you can use an fql query to retrieve the info you want //assuming $facebook is your php Facebook object $fql = url_encode('SELECT status_id, message,uid FROM status WHERE uid in(id1,id2,id3...)'); $data = $facebook->api('/fql?q='. $fql); //data should now hold the response you want, though you will have to match up user names to the uid. I'm assuming you know who the top 10 friends are though and have their id alternatively look at batch requests https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2011/03/17/batch-requests-in-graph-api/ or an FQL multi query https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql/

When Dr. Kathryn Walker and David Brennan, MBE, director of Telehealth Initiatives at MedStar Institute for Innovation (MI2), met at MedStar Health Research Institute's annual retreat in 2014, they quickly realized they had something in common: an interest in using connected health to improve access to care for patients with serious illnesses. Eager to work together, they secured funding from the Verizon Foundation to start the Palliative Telehealth Connecting Hospital to Home (PaTCH2) program. The program extends existing palliative care services in the form of a specially configured tablet, by using connected health technology to provide supportive care to critically ill patients at home. PaTCH2 currently enrolls patients at MedStar Union Memorial Hospital and MedStar Harbor Hospital. The PaTCH2team links with home health nurses from the MedStar Visiting Nurse Association and other providers at each site to coordinate care. Before being discharged from the hospital, the care team meets with patients and their families to enroll them in the program and train them on the use of the tablet. Once home, patients can use the tablet to send messages to and video conference with members of the care team from the comfort of their home. Patients also can access educational videos and resources specific to their condition, as well as an updated personal medication list. At 93 years old, Myrna Curtis could not be more grateful to be part of the program. She has been in the PaTCH2program since 2014, after she was seen in the emergency room for shortness of breath. "I'm able to stay home and get the kind of care that I need, since I can't get around," Myrna states. She appreciates the emotional support of having access to someone at the hospital with whom she feels comfortable and that knows her health issues and medications, and can explain them to her. Myrna has not been readmitted to the hospital in more than a year, largely due to the coordinated care she receives through the program. In addition to a decrease in readmission rates, the PaTCH2 program has positively impacted patient safety events, with pharmacists participating in nearly 50 medical interventions to date, most frequently on questions related to treatment adherence and medication dosage. The program has also highly impacted patient quality of life, as televisits with the care team can provide a sense of connection with the outside world that is often a challenge for homebound patients. The PaTCH2 program represents a crucial intersection of research and innovation supporting the health of the community.

In fiscal 2009, Henkel generated sales of €13,573 million, a decrease of 3.9% compared to the previous year. In organic terms, sales decreased by 3.5% versus prior year. After a substantial decline in sales in the first quarter caused by the economic crisis, the subsequent quarters were characterized by a gradual recovery. However, developments at the company's three business sectors continued to show a very mixed picture. While the consumer goods businesses of cosmetics/toiletries and laundry and home care continued to perform very well with organic growth rates of 3.5% and 2.9% respectively, sales of the adhesive technologies business sector decreased organically by 10.2%. "For Henkel, and the world economy as a whole, 2009 will go down as a challenging year. Nevertheless, we have made good progress toward achieving our 2012 financial targets as proven by our outstanding results in the fourth quarter of 2009," said Kasper Rorsted, chairman, Henkel Management Board. "Our laundry and home care and cosmetics/toiletries businesses have expanded their market positions and further increased their profitability. Once again, our strong brands have also made an appreciable contribution to the good performance: our new brand Syoss for example was the most successful launch in the hair care sector in 2009. We have put ourselves in a strong position and expect to improve noticeably our results in the current financial year." The complete fiscal year 2009 report can be found on Henkel's site.

Home / Vaastu Tips / What is Vaastu Shastra? WHAT DOES VAASTU SHASTRA MEAN? Vaastu Shastra, an ancient Indian science developed thousands of years ago by ancient Indian saints and rishis, puts forward rules for the construction of buildings and temples and has been practiced for centuries. Vaastu Shastra, an integral part of Indian architecture, having its its roots extended in Indian Philosophy, maths, geology, geography, religion and takes into account, factors influencing a Site, such as topography, roads, structures around, Sun's effects, Earth's magnetic field, cardinal directions, Earth's energy fields and elements of Nature. Bhoomi – means the plot or extent of land where the building is proposed. Prasada – includes the compound wall and buildings which are built within the Bhoomi (Site). Yaana – means all the (chariots) vehicles parked within the Bhoomi (Site). Shayana – includes all the furniture and utensils in the building (Prasada). Vaastu Shastra is an ancient Indian Vedic Science of Architecture that puts down guidelines on the construction of buildings such that they are in harmony with the environment or nature. The harmony management is achieved by managing the flow of cosmic energy through and around the buildings, which in turn promotes the well-being, peace and prosperity of the inhabitants. As per Vaastu, when buildings are in tune with the underlying cosmic principles, they become a part of the basic structure of the universe and vibrate in harmony with it. These positive vibrations are believed to have a positive effect on t by he inhabitants. It is common sense that a properly designed house is the one which has aesthetic, hygiene, comfort, and space to move around and thereby giving pleasure of living. In such a house the inhabitants will be happy and contented, whereas, a poorly designed house will not be comfortable to live in and hence create uneasiness in the minds of the inhabitants. Vaastu Shastra takes advantage of and manipulates the natural resources like sun, wind, air etc. and the topography of the site, the surrounding pathways, trees & plants, water sources, other structures etc. to harness the positive energy and prevent imbalance in the building and thus bring about harmony between man, nature and his built environment. DO VAASTU SHASTRA AND FENG SHUI HAVE SIMILARITY? Though Vaastu Shastra is conceptually similar to Chinese 'Feng Shui', as in both the methods an effort is made to harmonize the flow of energy (called 'Prana' in Sanskrit and 'Chi' in Chinese) through the house. The major difference is that, Vaastu gives the exact directions in which various objects, rooms, materials etc are to be placed. Vaastu considers the various principles for Architecture, Sculpture, Mathematics, Geometry, Geology (Geopathic Stress), Geography, Religion and Philosophy. It lays down principles on all aspects of Construction such as : Site selection, orientation and location of the building on the site, space around the building, orientation and location of rooms and other element of a building, direction of the doors, location of water sources, trees to be planted, colour scheme and even the suitable date and time for Foundation Laying Ceremony and the House Warming Ceremony. IS VASTU SHASTRA A SCIENCE OR SUPERSTITION? The name Vaastu Shastra itself suggests that it is a 'Shastra'. Shastra means a rational Science based on observations and facts. It takes into account the laws of nature which are governed by a set of principles. Vaastu Shastra was formulated nearly 5000 years ago and with time and generations it has evolved. Being based on practical fact it has survived the test of time indicates that it is a Science and not a Superstition. Vaastu Shastra was formulated by our Rishis as they has the wisdom to understand the thinking of people. If they did not enforced the principles of planning very strictly, people would build according to their understanding. Since people have differing tastes and ideas on aesthetics they would create ugly and unaesthetic structures. Perhaps to prevent such a situation, the principles of Vaastu Shastra were made as strict rules. It was said that if one followed the Vaastu principles strictly, one would live a happy, content and prosperous life. And if they were not followed, the inhabitants would be sick, unhappy, quarrel with each other and even die at early age. As a result, this 'Science' became a 'Superstition'. Even today many people follow the basic Vaastu principles while designing their new house or reconstructing one, as they fear that there could be adverse effects if not followed. There are people who exploit the common man's fears and superstitions and charge exorbitant fees by exploiting the ignorance and beliefs of the people. Such practitioners of Vaastu blindly following the standard thumb rules of Vaastu Shastra, without realising that the changed socio-economic conditions without considering the fact that each site is unique by virtue of the surrounding structures, trees, water sources, orientation, topography etc., and hence should be planned accordingly. To really help people achieve positive energy in their buildings, one has to have in depth knowledge of Vaastu and understand the logic and reasoning behind each and every principle. Aparajita Paricchay (a dialogue between Viswakarma and his son Aparajita, written by Bhuvanadevacharya) Silparatna. Other treatises such as Agni Purana and works by Kautilya and Sukracharya are not popular even though they preceded the above mentioned documents. WHAT ARE THE FIVE ELEMENTS OR THE PANCHAMAHABHUTAS? Basic principle of Vaastu is based on the assumption that the earth is a living organism, out of which other living creatures and organic forms emerge. Out of the nine planets in the Solar System, only Earth has life because of the presence of the five elements or Panchamahabhutas namely Aakash (Space), Vaayu (Air), Agni (Fire), Jala (Water) and Bhoomi (Earth). The unending region, beyond Earth in which not only our Solar System, but the entire Galaxy exists. The most effective forces are light, heat, gravity, magnetic field and waves. It provides shelter to the other four elements. The atmosphere above the Earth consists of Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon Dioxide, Water in the form of Vapour, Dust particles etc which are all essential for living things. Human physical comfort values are directly dependent on correct humidity, proper air flow, and suitable temperature of air, air pressure and composition of air. It represents light and heat and is essential element for existence of life. It also represents days and nights, seasons, energy, lightning, heat in volcano and the Sun and the solar system energy. The enthusiasm, passion, vigour in every living thing is because of light and heat only. This is represented by rain water, river water, and seawater. It is in the form of liquid, solid (the ice) and gas (the steam, the clouds). It is a combination of Hydrogen and Oxygen and is perfectly neutral. Every plant and animal is composed of water in different proportions. Earth, the third planet in order from the Sun, is a big magnet with North and South poles as centers of attractions. Its magnetic field and gravitational force has considerable effect on everything on the Earth. Its rotation about its axis and revolution around the sun brings about day and night and seasonal changes. HOW DO THE FIVE ELEMENTS AFFECT US? It is fact that, all these five elements are necessary to sustain life on this planet. There is an invisible and constant interaction between these elements. In an open field these elements operate freely and are in equilibrium. However, when a structure is placed in this field, the equilibrium is affected because these forces act for or against each other to create either harmony or disharmony. If there is disharmony, then it needs to be restored in such a manner that the energy flows harmoniously, making our lives well-balanced. Vaastu can help us to understand the effectiveness of the five elements and use them to our advantage. Vaastu can guide us in creating a balanced and harmonious environment to live in.

When starting a business every customer is a first-time customer. Before you can attract returning customers, you must establish a base of the first-timers. What are some strategies that will help you accomplish this? 1. Attractive web design is a crucial factor. When visitors are on your site, it needs to be visually appealing, easy to navigate and up-to-date. There should not be expired or non-working links and how to order should be easy and straightforward. 2. When you are just starting out, testimonials can be hard to come by but they are necessary. Personal follow up to your first customers soliciting feedback can be a great start. Putting testimonials on your site and social media pages can be a great way to encourage those who may be on the fence about placing an order. This can underscore the importance of quality customer service as well. Ensure that all of your customers have a good experience and would be willing to give you that positive testimonial. 3. Coupons can be a great way to build your network as well. A discount on their first order and/or in exchange for signing up for a mailing list can help extend your reach right away. CheekyTummy is an online store selling beautiful and functional accessories for mommies and babies. They offer things such as diaper bags, breastfeeding covers and bibs. They strategically attract new customers by offering 10 percent of each customer's first order. 4. Also, be sure not to neglect social media marketing. It can be overwhelming and difficult to get a grasp on, but it is important to have a social media presence. It can hurt you not to have a Facebook page for your business. It's a great way to get those awesome product photos viewed more, it's a great way to expand your network, and it's a great way to promote sales and specials. What are some other ways that you've attracted first-time customers?

A History of Collecting – Part Twenty One – The Shame (1) October 30th, 2005 by It's been ages since I've tried to knock one of these out, but now seems as good as any a time to start again. Having spent the first half of the weekend sulking and having woken this morning with the desire to tickle a lion's chin (not a metaphor, literally – it's all to do with my curtains) this seems the next best thing. Well, not really. The next best would be a tiger's. This would probably come fairly low on the list, but the lack of giant felids in the area, particularly ones which would allow chin tickling without a subsequent mauling, means that this is as good as the day is likely to get. With it being so long since the previous part, I would put some sort of lengthy explanation here, were it not for the fact that I doubt anyone new has started reading this guff in the past six months. Frankly who can blame them? Hey, there's an archive. Use it! Onward. Following my slow move away from Action Force, there was a large toy shaped hole in my collecting habits. This didn't last for very long though. I forget where I first came across what was to become my new obsession. An advert in a comic, the televisual marketing campaign, seeing it on a shelf, word of mouth, it could have been any of these things. But at some point 'Hero Quest' entered my consciousness and became something that I needed to possess. This was uncharacteristic for me, having never been much of a fan of board games at any point before. Long rain soaked caravan holidays would often be punctuated with the odd game of Cluedo or Monopoly, but these were unusual occurrences at best. The year I received Yahtzee as a (I think) birthday present and promptly spent the day sulking is testament to the lack of appeal that games with dice had for me. I was an ungrateful child. Nevertheless, obsessed I was, and duly demanded it for the next upcoming celebration of me – presumably Christmas though I can't say for certain. I suppose it was the fantasy elements that intrigued me about it most. Though fantasy had always held some interest for me, it had never truly had me in its thrall and to be honest the game didn't really change this. What had really won me over were the figures. Akin to the top hats and boots of Monopoly, 'Hero Quest's' box came with playing pieces appropriate to it's genre. Most barely an inch tall, but surprisingly well crafted pieces of molded plastic which in all the hype I had seen looked spectacular. Especially the villainous goblins, orcs and such like, not to mention the craft that had gone into the board. Little doors standing up in three dimensions, intricately painted stone floors, movable hazards. The adverts made you believe it looked spectacular. That year I tore into the wrapping around the box and expectantly opened it up. Indeed the board did look impressive, as did the little cardboard vortices; even the doors had character to them. The only disappointing things were the figures themselves. Rather than the vibrantly coloured miniatures I had been expecting, these were all a single uniform tone. Admittedly, the different characters were different hues – the goblins a sickly green, the barbarian a dull crimson – but they were only this single colour. Obviously, I thought, there was no way to rectify this and, uncharacteristically for my highly strung youth, went about enjoying the game. And enjoy it I did. Unlike my anal tendencies with previous figures, I wasn't adverse to people handling my new babies. The presence of a proper set of rules to govern the game playing was the main motivating force. The fact that the fun was to be derived from experiencing the game in a social context (with more than one person playing a figure or two) led me to playing it in such a way. Thus many hours were wiled away with Neill (with two Ls), my brother and occasionally others, happily taking our characters on various adventures, amusing one another with chance cards and rolling dice. But these weren't dice in the Yahtzee mode. Oh no, that would still have been terrible. But the fact that they were red, wooden, and had skulls and lightning bolts instead of numbers made them seem unbelievably cooler. I seem to remember that the board game itself was manufactured by MB Games, a company whose name I had seen many times before on countless other kid's toys. But there was something in one of the rule books that intrigued me. These fascinated me, with their dark sword and sorcery paintings, the like of which I'd only seen on fantastical book covers in libraries, but had never really owned myself. But it was a statement at the end of one these, amongst the copyright indicia, which intrigued me. The fact that MB hadn't originated the game itself, but in conjunction with another company. I thought nothing of this for almost a year, until it came to my attention that the partnership were offering a second collaboration. That game was Space Crusade. The company? Games Workshop. I shudder at its name now, but it was to become an obsession of mine for nigh on three years . . . Cyclical Did some cycling today for the first time in I don't know how many years. Felt odd to be on a bike again after so long without, but all the old instincts came back pretty quickly. First time that I'd ridden in a city since the 'incident', which I'll likely touch on in greater detail in A History of Collecting within the next month or so. Despite the saddle being a bit high for me (odd considering my towering height), the perpetual drizzle and not noticing the presence of gears until over halfway through my journey, the ride was surprisingly enjoyable. And it wasn't a girl's bike. It just happened to be pink and the top bar was coincidentally a bit on the low side. But it wasn't a girl's bike. Though I did borrow it from a girl. Crapness Switched the computer on almost three hours ago, planning to write something. Have spent the hours since then playing Spider Solitaire. I am crap. No, not the one out of Jamiroquai . . . This is what they call her in the Czech Republic. Well, I thought it was amusing. Dear God, NO! The horror, the horror. October 23rd, 2005 by Lodger does actually feature 'Boys Keep Swinging', which was and is quite well known and was almost certainly a single. I'd only listened to half the album when I wrote the last post and hadn't got to it by then. Plus I thought it was called 'When you're a Boy'. That's how the bit in the chorus with the harmonies goes, so it seemed sort of logical. Anyway, I admit fallibility. That's not going to happen very often. Next Sunday – the possible return of a feature I've not touched on for far too long . . . Reapp – no, that's a shit name Three days in a row? My adorability must be on a downward spiral. I was listening to Bowie's Lodger album earlier today. It is an odd beast. It was the album that came after his last truly great piece of work (not including the twenty first century recordings, which have their moments, but I'm discounting here for the sake of ease) "Heroes" and just before his first 'only partially listenable' album, Scary Monsters. I think that pretty much all of the material that followed that flawed little entity during the eighties and nineties can be pretty much ignored – something I have successfully managed for some time now. Especially Let's Dance. I should also add that every album before it is glorious and an essential addition to anyone claiming to have musical taste's collection. That's what makes Lodger all the odder. Unlike any of his albums before it (with the possible exception of Pin Ups, but that was all covers) it doesn't contain any hit singles. Perhaps one of them was when it was originally released, but there's nothing on it that has had as much radio play in the intervening years as any taken from his previous releases. Even Low had Sound And Vision, and half of that's bloody instrumentals! Which is a bit of a shame as some of the stuff on Lodger isn't all that bad. Granted, you can hear the eighties rut encroaching in places, but the sound is more akin to his seventies output and nowhere near as cringe worthy as Scary Monsters' synthscapes. It's possible that it has something to do with Eno's influence on proceedings. It was the last of the trio of albums they collaborated on and, if memory serves, the least commercially successful of the three. Certainly Eno's alchemical ability to turn shit into gold could be the grace that saved it from sounding like the proto Tin Machine of Bowie's early eighties career, but I think that a lot of the tunes hold up to some level of scrutiny. Plus I think that Madness nicked a bit out of one song for Uncle Sam. Perhaps it does sound a bit more eightiesish than I've been making out. Is there a point to any of this? No, not really, just thought that I'd share. Name 'gain I've written about my inability to remember names on here before (I'd link to it if I thought that you were remotely interested). Of late I seem to have been trying to counter my tendency of addressing people whose names have been temporarily forgotten as "you". I don't recall having made a conscious decision to do this, but nevertheless my brain appears to have rewired itself in this fashion. Unfortunately this rewiring doesn't seem to have gone to the extent of actually putting the names I'm looking for on offer. Instead on some occasions it will allow the correct first letter to form in my mouth before giving up entirely and just allowing another word to form after it, normally in some unformed slur. On others it will simply fire the name of the last person I thought about down, leaving me to shout that at some bewildered acquaintance passing in the street. For this reason I ask, nay implore you all to get name tags. That way everyone will be happy and we can all live in peace and harmony forever more. Ills Been a bit poorly. Mainly self inflicted, through either alcohol or slightly out of date pasta sauces, leaving me uncertain as to whether I have hunger pangs or nausea. My body clock is utterly shot to pieces, leaving me exhausted and a little grumpy at all times. Getting twinges in my back when lifting things which can't be a good sign. My hands have always shaken a little, but it seems to be becoming slightly more pronounced. Fairly certain I've screwed up one of my knees jumping down a staircase and one of my hips doing that odd thing where I put my foot under my ribs. Getting a weird feeling of numbness below my left eye, almost like the trapped nerve the dentists put in my lip ten years ago and I still haven't got round to sorting out. There's a strange line of bruises at the top of my legs which looks as if someone has been caning me across the balls. Thankfully they appear unscathed. So I shouldn't grumble really. Jog Blog The other day I must have been passed by close to thirty joggers on one of my daily constitutionals. Not in a single group, mind. Mainly groups of three or four. As far as I know there was no marathon or organized fun run (a misnomer if ever there was one. And yes I have taken part in one. Managed to do the mile I was supposed too – running circuits around a field – and then spent the rest of the afternoon looking on in disbelief as local nutters continued to plough on into the early evening) taking place. As you might have surmised from the digression, I'm not an enormous fan of jogging or running. Or joggers for that matter, but I suppose that's their choice. Surely the other option, whatever it may have been, was better, but you can't argue with these people. You have to run to keep up and argue at which point you're as bad as them and the argument is lost. Unless your like me and take six half hearted speedy paces before collapsing into a heap, coughing up blood. I had a point a minute ago. Where did I put it? Oh yeah, this was a phenomenal number of them to see in a twenty minute walk. I know it's been unusually clement for the time of year, but that doesn't seem like a logical justification for that many of the freaks to suddenly start clogging up the pavement. The only rational explanation I've come up with is the fact that the universities in town have only just started up again. Most of them looked fairly young, so my observations do back me up. But is this really what the youth of today have become? Rather than wiling away their student loans in the union bar, dabbling in narcotics or trying wheedle their way inside undergarments of anything with a pulse (and I'm including bags of lentils there) have we instead bred a generation of health obsessed automatons, hell bent on living to a ludicrously ripe old age by which time their faculties are so dim that they could barely power a twenty watt bulb? Is this what is to become of our fair nation? Fit and healthy people dashing about as if they own the place, while I sit at home in my iron lung, watching reruns of The Good Life? Actually it doesn't sound that bad. Hopefully the majority of them were just following resolutions to keep fit when they got here, which will quickly vanish as the booze begins to flow. At least the encroaching autumn should put some of them off. That and the series of tripwires I've erected.

When Jim O'Shaughnessy decided to start his own firm, he was a well-known fund manager at Bear Stearns and the author of the well-known book What Works on Wall Street. Our challenge was to create a memorable identity to establish a brand new investment firm based on that well-known name, as if the firm had been there all along.Our brief was to reflect O'Shaughnessy's totally unemotional approach to investing, based completely on proprietary data tracked since the 1930s. The resulting wordmark takes advantage of the unusual name. A perfectly circular letter "O" is pierced by an arrow-like apostrophe pointing to its center. The "O Apostrophe" is also used alone, taking on the form of a symbol for precision and accuracy.

Google Flutter is a free and open-source SDK (Software Development kit) which is used to develop high performance Android and iOS application. Flutter allows the developers to build native apps on iOS and Android from a single Code. It provides lots of widgets to build native apps. The main aim of Google Flutter is to provide flexibility to programmers and developers so that they can develop better apps in minimum possible time. Is it different than Facebook React Native? Flutter delivers very high performance as it is based on C++ base engine. The best thing about Flutter is that the developers don't need to re-compile the code every time when he/she make some changes in code. It also provides smooth scrolling and support of different types of fonts on both Android and iOS. Flutter is like a golden chance for those developers who are using Linux and Windows Operating System as they don't need to purchase MacBook or iMac to develop iOS apps. It means, developers can make iOS apps in less investment as MacBook and iMac are very expensive. Google Ads, Alibaba, Google Greentea and Tencent's video streaming services are developed using Flutter. The latest version of Flutter is 1.0. Flutter is going through some really tough competition as Facebook React Native is already very famous. So, what do you think about Google Flutter tell us in the comments below.

Almost all of us make occasional treks to the airport. And most of the time we are thinking about where we are going, when we will get there, and other thoughts related to our trip activities. The airport often represents fun, vacation, or a different venue for our business activities. Unfortunately, airports can also be dangerous because they provide a great venue for identity thieves to engage in their crimes. Luggage transfer, public wifi and a chaotic environment all leave travelers open to becoming victims of identity theft. Travelers are often fearful of losing their luggage, but there is another concern even if luggage isn't lost or stolen permanently. When you check your luggage it is no longer in your control. Think about all of the people who have access to whatever items or personal information may be contained in your luggage once it leaves your possession. Is there anything in your checked baggage that could be used by an identity thief? What about the information on your luggage tags? From the tags alone, someone may gather names, addresses, phone numbers and email addresses of travelers. When packing luggage that will be checked for a flight, travelers should be aware of what information could be gathered from its contents and make sure that there is no personal identifying information. Nowadays, many airports offer free public wifi. This may seem like a wonderful thing for busy travelers who need to catch up on emails or a chance to update your Facebook status. However, airport wifi is open to everyone in the airport. That means that users are potentially exposing everything on their wireless devices to anyone in the airport who wants to see it. Identity thieves can easily download programs which allow them to access the computers and accounts of anyone using the same network as them. Can you imagine exposing your online banking accounts to everyone in an airport? That is a possibility if you use airport wifi unprotected. Airports are, by their very nature, the perfect place for crimes because of their chaotic nature. Travelers who are frazzled and distracted are more prone to leaving their purses or laptop bags in the bathroom as they run to catch a flight. At passenger security checkpoints, your belongings are scanned by agents as they move by on a conveyor belt, well within reach of others. While there is nothing travelers can do about having to be scanned before entering their terminal, what they can do is travel light and be sure that their personal belongings are always with them. If you happen to leave your carry-on luggage somewhere and are able to grab it before someone else does, check and be sure that everything that was in it before it left your sight is still there. Make sure you don't carry any more personal identification than is absolutely necessary. Passports are not needed for domestic flights and there is no reason to have your Social Security cards with you. If these items are locked in a safe at home, then they cannot be lost or stolen during travel. Travel can be exciting and fun at best, and devastating at worst. One thing travelers should not have to be concerned with is the additional problem of identity theft. They should able to worry about more important things… like whether there are free snacks on their flight.

Q: How to make a YouTube iFrame Video Responsive I have a YouTube video on my home page --> https://delicateseams.com/ half way down the page in the left content block. The video thumbnail is not responsive on mobile devices. Does anyone know how to get a YouTube video's thumbnail image to be responsive? A: From what I can gather your problem is that the iframe and it's parent have a fixed width (600px), but the flex layout around it allows it to be much smaller (On a small browser window both the "Stay in touch" panel and the video flow over their bounds.

PR SHORTS. For quick snapshots on the leading stories and superstars across the global PR industry. PR ACCELERATION THROUGH AUTOMATION Better conversations, faster results through rich, ready media intelligence. Top 50 honchos from the PR industry to look out for Perhaps the most potent symbol of PR's evolution in recent years is the seeming scarcity of "public relations" and "PR" in job titles. The growth of PR itself is to blame. The term "PR" hardly encompasses what brand communicators are now asked to do by their organizations or clients. If you're charged with building brand awareness and you're not placing ads in print publications—I saw one of those just last week—or working with an ad agency on a TV campaign, you're doing some form of PR, whether you're aware of it or not.

Neither has any place in modern practice. Earned Media Value (EMV), a modern version of Advertising Equivalent Value (AVE), is being promoted by tool vendors, media and public relations agencies as a simple means to measure and benchmark campaigns. AVE metrics are determined by calculating the equivalent advertising cost for earned content. An arbitrary multiplier is applied on the basis that editorial is more valuable than advertising. It's nonsense.

Square Enix Is Making The Avengers And More Marvel Games Marvel's move back into console gaming takes a huge step today, as the comic book company announces a multi-year, multi-game partnership with Square Enix, beginning with The Avengers Project. Developed by Crystal Dynamics in collaboration with Eidos Montreal, The Avengers Project is the working title for the first game to come from the newly-announced partnership. Details are scant, and the description provided is pretty vague. The Avengers project is being designed for gamers worldwide and will be packed with all the characters, environments, and iconic moments that have thrilled longtime fans of the franchise. Featuring a completely original story, it will introduce a universe gamers can play in for years to come. The announcement was accompanied by a trailer, which is also rather vague. We'll have plenty of time to speculate about exactly what The Avengers Project is, as more details on the game and additional games being developed under the partnership are expected in 2018.

Getting stuck with the tab …. i.e. that a new purchaser is liable for any past due association dues, and that the statute "trumps" the declaration. The court ruled that "[P]arties are free to contract around a state law so long as there is nothing void as to public policy or statutory law." Franks v. Bowers, 116 So. 3d 1240, 1247 (Fla. 2013) [38 Fla. L. Weekly S416a]. "A contract which violates a provision of . . . a statute is void and illegal, and will not be enforced." Harris v. Gonzalez, 789 So. 2d 405, 409 (Fla. 4th DCA 2001) [26 Fla. L. Weekly D1433a]. The Declaration purports to allow Pudlit to avoid liability for unpaid assessments. This is plainly contrary to the terms of section 720.3085(2)(b), which specifically states owners such as Pudlit are liable for such assessments. Because Article VII, Section 12 of the Declaration absolves Pudlit of liability mandated by statute, it cannot be enforced. Author's note: I have seen numerous instances of purchasers of foreclosed properties being stuck with unpaid association dues. Do not close until you have seen estoppel letters from all associations and the amounts stated as due placed on the settlement statement as seller expenses to be paid at closing. Do not permit association dues to be listed on schedule B 2 of your title insurance commitment as an exception to title. Typical REO purchase contracts will waive any recourse against the seller.

When it comes to the audit of the P2P video-rental industry, there's a lot of talk about fraud and abuse, but there's also plenty of money to be made. July 27, 2021 1 admin The P2PR is the digital equivalent of a music video, a way to pay for something without having to actually buy it. In the P1PR, you have to actually pay for it, but in the P3PR, it's not so much of a problem because the video can be downloaded for free. The difference is that the P4PR is where the money comes in. As of March 2018, a new video-torrent company called P4p has a $1.5 billion valuation. P4P is a new company, so it's a bit of a mystery as to how it is able to generate revenue. A few months ago, a company called The Pirate Bay (a torrent site) had its valuation reduced to $600 million, according to Forbes. The Pirate Party is the Pirate Party. This party is the largest opposition to P2PSP, and has been making waves for years. In 2017, the Pirate Parties political platform proposed a new law to legalize the PPP's P2PT legislation. The new law would allow the PIP to operate without a central authority. This would mean the PPG could be able to continue operating without a government or even a parliamentary body. The party also said it would have more control over its own members' voting power. This idea was opposed by many politicians in Parliament. The parties new leader, MP John Stanton, told Ars that he had been approached by several politicians asking if the PPDP would join him in Parliament to support the law. The PPD is the most popular party in the Netherlands, and is currently in third place in the polls. According to the latest polls, Stanton's party is currently polling at just 1 percent, making it the fourth-worst party in Parliament right now. The Party of Pirate Parties leader, Marnie Schubert, has been working hard to convince Parliament to pass the law, and this month, she got her first endorsement from the Dutch parliament. Schuetbert said that the legislation would have a major impact on P2PP's revenues, because the PPA will be able use P2PA fees to pay members for their time on the Pirate Bay. As a result, P4Ps revenue could skyrocket. According the PAPP, it would take in $300,000 for a P4PP member to attend a PIPP event, and the money would be spent directly on paying members. If a member attends P4PSP's Pirate Party event, the amount of P4PA fees they would receive would be more than the amount they would have spent on attending P4PM's PIPPs Pirate Party events. This money could then be used to pay the P5P, which would pay P4pm's members more for their work. The legislation has a big effect on P3PSP and P4PCP, too. The first party to legalize P2PCP was the Pirate Society, which has been a P2PG member for 20 years. According this article, P3PCP is the second largest party in parliament. The current leader of P3P, MP Johan van Vliet, has said that he's working on a solution to the issue, which is why he's proposing to create a P3PG for P2PUPs. Van Vlít also said that P3PP will have a stronger position than P2POPs Pirate Parties, since they're already considered as the two most powerful parties in the country. It's unclear how P3PUPs Pirate parties and P3PAC will vote in parliament, but P3POPs leader said that they plan to work on it together with P3PLPs Pirate party. The Dutch Pirate Party has had a rocky time with the PPSP legislation. In 2018, the PSPP was not invited to parliament and voted against the legislation. PSPPs spokesperson said that his party did not vote in favour of the bill because they did not want to be associated with the party. "We were not aware that the bill had been adopted," he said. "This is a huge problem for us because we are not directly involved in the implementation of the legislation."

I can't figure out what could be causing this. Is it a known action when using this on mobile? It doesn't do it when using the same code for checkboxes so I can't figure out why it would do it for radio buttons. Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Here's the code on jsFiddle (I've tried using just the "for" and using onclick which is why one label has it and the other doesn't): http://jsfiddle.net/52uQP/ <input type="radio" name="contact" id="admissions"> <label for="admissions" onclick=""><span></span>Admissions</label> <input type="radio" name="contact" id="cashiers_office"> <label for="cashiers_office"><span></span>Cashier's Office</label> Thanks in advance.

Q: Singular "they" in 1954 During the June 13, 1954, episode of American television's What's My Line, the panel was blindfolded and had to identify the guests, Les Paul and Mary Ford, by asking a series of questions that the guests would answer. The panel didn't know from the outset that there was more than one guest. This conversation ensued (from timestamp 18:55 of this video): Panel: Are you in television? Ms. Ford: Kinda. … Panel: "Kind of." Does that mean that you're in television by way of movies? Emcee: … it means they're in television — they appear on television screens, etc. — without any specific reference to time, date, etc.… It just means that you asked "Are they in television?"; the answer to that would be "Yes".… … Panel: Well, is this, um — hm, I think there's more than one person there. Emcee: Well, if you do, all you have to do is ask the question. Panel: Is there more than one person? Ms. Ford: Yes. Now, I would've thought the emcee had given it completely away: that, in 1954, referring to the guests as "they" would make it clear as day that there were multiple guests. Yet the panel asked. So am I wrong: was singular "they" at least somewhat acceptable (at least when trying deliberately to conceal the sex of a person)? Or am I right that "they" was only plural at that time, and the panel was merely being extra-cautious (or polite in pretending the emcee hadn't flubbed)? A: In the context of this program, the voices used in the answers already given had already made the panel suspect there was more than one person. The word 'they", used in this way in 1954, would reinforce the idea. One of the panel still asked if there was more than one. They were likely pretty sure already. Under the game rules, asking a question when you were fairly certain the answer would be "yes" was not much of a risk. Only "no" answers counted against the panel. So checking to be certain made sense. A: It's hard to test systematically for early instances of "they" as third-person singular pronoun because such instances often follows on a contingent phrase that is highly specific and variable from one instance to the next. For example: If a person [performs action X], they will [get result Y]. However, I decided to check Google Books results for several phrases that are easier to test for because they appear as single blocks of words: a person knows they a person feels they a person sees they a person understands they Expressions of this form are fairly common in recent published writing. For example, from Carol Noyes, Coming Full Circle: One Woman's Journey Through Spiritual Crisis (2014): I also remembered that several years earlier my chiropractor had told me that a person knows they are a shaman if they are nearly struck by lightning. Matches for these four phrases are rare in Google Books search results from before the late 1960s, but they do occur, primarily in extemporaneous remarks recorded at administrative hearings, for example. Here are the earliest examples that involve (or may involve) use of they as a third-person singular pronoun. From a letter dated July 2, 1802, from Thomas Jefferson to Mary Jefferson Eppes, reprinted in B.L. Raynor, Sketches of the Life, Writings, and Opinions of Thomas Jefferson (1832): I have not heard yet of the disease [measles] having got to Monticello, but the intercourse with Edgehill being hourly, it can not have failed to have gone there immediately ; and as there are no young children there but Bet's and Sally's, and the disease is communicable before a person knows they have it, I have no doubt those children have passed through it. Here Jefferson may mean "before a responsible adult knows that the children have it"—but to a person accustomed to frequent use of singular "they," it also sounds right in the sense of "before a person knows that he or she has it." Most of the remaining examples in my answer are far less ambiguous than this one, however. From remarks by John McDougall on January 19, 1906, in "Minutes of Evidence Taken Before the Royal Commission on the Care and Control of the Feeble-Minded, Etc." in Parliamentary Papers, House of Commons and Command, volume 36 (1908): The members of the committee are seeing the patients almost constantly. Persons frequently ask to come before the committee, and we see them ; the more insane they are, the more they are seen, but it is a very great comfort to them to come and be seen, and to meet the members of the committee of the committee. The patients look forward with eagerness to the visit of the Lunacy Commissioners. Everybody desires to get away from the asylum ; it is very natural. The moment a person feels they are comfortable in an asylum and would not like to go, they are the very persons to be picked out and discharged. Here the speaker shifts from "a person ... they" to "they are the ... persons," indicating that "a person" may have given way to "persons" in the speaker's mind by the time the first "they" showed up; nevertheless as a matter of grammar, the first "they" refers to "a person." From Clyde Kluckhohn & Mischa Titiev, Old Oraibi: A Study of the Hopi Indians of Third Mesa (1944): These [characteristics of certain plants] were very secret things the old people knew. It is very dangerous to have all six of them. They didn't tell the persons who had these plants what would happen if you had all six, just told them it as very dangerous. In case a person knows, they would use some of these four on you, and your mind would be all kind of losing your mind, you would get weak in mind and suffer that way gradually. The last two will put sores on you or inside you if used against you. With the first four you will lose your mind and get weaker. I cn't tell exactly what's going on here. "they" might refer to "a person" or it might reach back to the previous paragraph and refer to "old people." Because the writing seems to be a transcription of speech by someone whose English is somewhat pidginy, the intended meaning is a bit opaque. From Hearings Before the [House] Subcommittee on Public Buildings and Grounds of the Committee on Public Works (1947) [combined snippets]: Mr. ANDERSON. This would nullify the experiences that you are drawing from in England—where they do not have the right to refuse [to take a breathalyzer test] if the officer stops them. Mr. TOFANY. Except that the psychology of it is there, and that if a person knows they are subjected to that preliminary kind of screening and if they refuse anyone, they may be guilty of a traffic infraction—and if they are not in a condition that would lead the officer to the opinion that he would have to have one in order to make the arrest, I think the majority of the motorists would be reluctant to drive and drink because of the fear of that screening test. This instance unquestionably uses "they" to refer to "a person"—although it is true that this hypothetical "person" is being treated as representative of all motorists who might find themselves in the situation that the speaker is describing. From an unidentified article in International Stereotypers' and Electrotypers' Union Journal, volume 60 (1965): This service is rendered to those that want to help themselves, so if a person feels they don't want to travel or maybe move to where the work is then don't bother to write. And if a person wants to be called then they must except phone charges. Here again, we have a hypothetical person standing in for a class of users but being referred to with singular "they." Conclusion As noted above, one striking thing about these early instances of singular "they" is that they involve "a person" who represents a hypothetical class of people; that is, they involve a singular "they" with no known or specific identity who stands in for a plural "they"—members of a class of real or hypothetical people who share some key characteristic. The example that the OP asks about is quite different. Here the "they" refers specifically to the person or persons on stage and answering questions posed by the game show contestants. The host presumably refers to this person or persons as "they" because he knows that they are not just a single person. The panelist's somewhat slow-on-the-uptake remark that "I think there's more than one person there" is thus a vindication of the general understanding in 1954 that "they" generally referred to plural entities. It would not have been unprecedented if the show's host had used "they" in a singular sense, but it would have been extremely unusual, given the specific nature of the referent for "they" in this instance. In my view, that isn't what happened here, but it certainly did in the 1908, 1947, and 1965 examples quoted above.

Review: MyNoise for iOS Lynda Arnold on Jan 17, 2016 in Review 0 comments Many studies have shown certain sounds and music to have profound health benefits for the listener. With this in mind, Lynda Arnold put the relaxation powers of MyNoise for iOS to the test. More and more people are discovering the health benefits of meditation and are looking for tools to aid them in dropping into a relaxed state. Some need help with insomnia, anxiety or simply assistance with stress reduction. Sound and Music designed to assist people with relaxation, meditation and healing are becoming more popular. One of the hot new areas of development in this movement is sound meditation and relaxing music Apps for iOS. myNoise for iOS is one worth mentioning in more detail due to its sound quality and interface innovation. This app gives the listener the ability to customize what they want to hear, build multis with different layered sounds, create calibrated listening presets and adjust the frequency bands within each sound in addition to animating them. There are a wide variety of beautiful sound categories and sources to discover. myNoise provides the sonic building blocks of healing music, where you can be your own conductor on your path to wellness. Figure 1—MyNoise.net Palm Garden Sound Generator. MyNoise.net is the main website showcasing over 100 sounds or sound generators originally conceived and constructed by Stephane Pigeon, a signal processing Ph.D. engineer with a strong passion for sound design. The website is a great place to spend some time listening to sounds, learning about the App and reading about how certain sound generators are created, even detailed information about the sounds you are hearing. The Screenshot above shows a new sound generator release on the website called 'Palm Garden,' recorded in Morocco. It's important to note that this website came before the App. The App was designed from the ground up to include more features than the website and allow users to listen without having connectivity. MyNoise App Features Figure 2—Choose a Sound Generator in the App. The Free version of the App comes with five sound generators to get started including Spring Walk, Binaural Beat Machine, Rain Noise, Temple Bells and White Noise. The colored sliders in each sound generator have different sounds or frequency bands of noise or tones for you to mix in and out. Can't decide on a mix you like? No problem. Select 'Animate' and choose from 5 speed settings to randomize the sounds for you. The dynamic nature of this feature will make you feel like you are inside the environment. Figure 3—Mix the Sounds. Perhaps my favorite feature of the App is the ability to create a multi listening environment where you can activate and layer a bunch of sound generators at once. And if you animate a few of them, the sound will always stay interesting. Figure 4—Create A Multi in MyNoise. You can also create custom Calibration settings that are ideal for listeners with hearing loss or damage as well as a Noise Blocker setting to block out ambient noise in an Office environment, for example. Figure 5—Ambient Noise Calibration Setting. In the Downloads section, you can upgrade to all full version of the App with all the sound generators in one bundle for $9.99 or listen and download individual sounds for $.99 each.

This morning, Scripture talks about imitation. In fact, Scripture is very clear about teaching us life by imitation. And what we will see today is that there is no other way but to face the fact that all of us are going to imitate someone or something, and that it is a good thing to be an imitator! Watch and see the Christ and His Word in action, then stand up for the Truth and send it, post it, share it with your friends to spread the Glorious Gospel Message of salvation to the world! On this Reformation Sunday, it is imperative that we as Christians regard the Reformation of the 16th century as more than just another date in history, because continuous Reformation is at all times needed in the church to preserve and protect God's Inerrant Word! God's Word for today is a continuation from last week's message regarding the rich young ruler. It takes place immediately after the disciples had just witnessed this good moral man turn away from Jesus sorrowful because he had many possessions, and he was not willing to give it all up, if needed, to follow after Christ. Recorded in God's Word today we are introduced to one of the finest young men found in the Bible. He was polite. He was sincere. He was moral. He was good. And while this surely sounds like the beginning of a wonderful Christian story, what we will see, is that this story is one of the most sad and ill-fated incidents found in Scripture. These words of Jesus before us this morning are addressed to adults only. Not because children aren't involved, but because they are! Watch and see the Christ and His Word in action, then send it, post it, share it with your friends to spread His Gospel Message of salvation to the world! Both from the standpoint of principles and ideologies, America is suffering a heavy and very drastic erosion. Case after case can be cited to substantiate this dangerous immoral and dishonorable direction which we as a nation are traveling. However, even though this erosion is occurring before our very eyes, there is cause for optimism, because today is the day for the Christian Church to reassert herself and to stand up and to be counted for the truth! In other words, this day is NOT a day for pessimism, but of opportunity. There is often a tendency to use certain words, but to use them in a meaningless manner thru misuse or over usage. When this happens words can take on a meaning much different than originally intended. In other words, proper context in language is important. This fact of contextual understanding is especially important in understanding the Bible. Today Jesus redefines for us the word "great" and He puts this word in its proper context in relation to our eternal salvation! God's Word for this morning teaches us the power that every Christian has from their relationship with Jesus Christ. And what we will see today, is that the impossible is indeed possible thru our faith in God! Watch and see the Christ and His Word in action, then send it, post it, share it with your friends to spread His Gospel Message of salvation to the world! Whenever we follow the footsteps of Jesus in the Gospels we see Him very engaged in the activities of people. We see Him helping, comforting, and healing most everyone He comes in contact with. Yes, Jesus Christ certainly cares for all people. But what should Christ's example mean to the Christian? Watch and see the Christ and His Word in action, then send it, post it, share it with your friends to spread His Gospel Message of salvation to the world! Today's message is a lesson in strength and power for each and every Christian because it not only exposes for us the demonic forces that are constantly battling against all Christians, but it also reassures us that God has given to us divine weapons to guard and defend us in this conflict! Watch and see the Christ and His Word in action, then send it, post it, share it with your friends to spread His Gospel Message of salvation to the world!

Q: hard drive Noises from different file systems (NTFS, EXT3, etc) I've been using many operating systems since many years ago, and I've noticed something curious that I cannot find answers in any place on the internet. It's the different noises produced by NTFS/FAT systems, and the almost-silent sounds generated by UNIX-like systems, including Linux, All-BSD (Mac OS X, also). I never found a technical article sufficiently clear about this issue, but I swear, I'm not crazy! I just hear Windows 98,XP,Vista,7 in my Maxtor hard drive sounding too much higher than another operating systems... I've tested many hard drive manufacturers and systems... but the conclusion looks always the same: NTFS/FAT is absolutely noisy, specially when the system is going to 'sleep', or simply staying a couple of seconds inactive. It never happens with Mac OS or another UNIX-like. If you have something significant to contribute, please let me know. A: Yes, different operating systems and different filesystems have different noise patters. What you hear is actually a head movement, so each time hard disk seeks to a new position, you hear a characteristic noise. Here's why: * *Workloads differ. A busy unix database server accesses files differently than a PC gaming rig, that's obvious. *File allocation strategies differ in different filesystems: where the next newly created file will be created on disk. Some filesystem chose the the closest free space to other files in the same directory, some biggest free space, some next available, etc. This greatly affects hard disk seeking afterwards. *Disk fragmentation. Files on FAT filesystems are getting fragmented over time if there is a considerable create-delete activity. NTFS and unix filesystems manage fragmentation better. *Caching and disk syncing. How often filesystem flushes its cached data to disk? FAT filesystems are often more noisy because the assumption is that power cord can be yanked at any time, thus they try to flush as soon as possible, since FATs can be easily corrupted. Journaling filesystems (NTFS, ext3, etc.) keep data in cache longer, thus reduced disk seeking. PC OSes (Windows in particular) have to presume power can be out at any moment, thus frequent flushes to disk and increased noise. All in all, you're not dreaming things, but there's nothing magical about it.

Mia has been pretty rude. I had forgotten about Mary Murphy. I wonder what happened to her. I can't believe another dancer had to go home because of an injury. This year seems to be the year for injuries. I wonder why. Are the dances causing the injuries or are the dancers not warming up before they practice? I felt bad that Ashley had to go home. Sounds like they didn't ask her to come back next year. I wonder why. Mybe because they felt she was not going to make it to the end anyway and Alex could have? I don't know but doesn't seem fair to me. I felt bad for her. I thought they would've ased her to come back just like they did Alex, I thought she was a very good dancer and I believe she was never on the bottom 3. They probably didn't ask her to come back because she will be healed in time to tour with the group and Alex will not. She will get tons of exposure for dance jobs through the tour and Alex gave up a job and now can't work for probably 6 months or more. I miss Mary Murphy too! I wish she would come back to be a judge instead of Mia. Mia can be downright mean with her comments sometimes. Besides, the Hot Tamale Train has been empty all year... so sad. I guess SYTYCD took a clue from American Idol by not sending anyone home this week but sending 2 home next week. I thought that was fair since (whats his name) was injured and could not dance this week. BTW, I read where Mia Michaels is now a permanent judge, I went to MM's biography but it did not state why she isn't judging anymore. I know she was still with the show when they went to the contestent homes to let them know they made it because she went to several of the people's home. I guess we're stuck with Mia, UGH! The right two went for the group that was in the bottom but I think it should have been Jose and Kent. I was sad to see Billy go, I thought he was marvelous especially last night when he did that number with Ade (spg) about being homeless, I had to watch him do that twice. Sometimes I do go back and watch a number I like in the past seasons but I thought Billy's last night was one of the best. I'm sure the young girls are all voting for Kent, he is cute and can dance but I would have prefer Billy to him. Lauren will probably be in the finals but I think Kent is going to take it. Gosh, I totally disagree with you Barb. I think Kent is one of the best dancers and has stuck around because of his dancing. I think his personality could end up hurting him since the judges are constantly telling him to watch his facial expression. I see what they're saying because it can be a turn off. I myself keep looking past his facial expressions and his personality and focus on his marvelous and pratically flawless dancing. I think Adachicka (sp) tries to impress the audience by showing a personality but I don't think his dancing holds a candle to Kent's dancing or Billy's. I would have sent Adachicka home before Billy. I think Jose needed to go home. He's another one who stuck around because of his personality. I thought that might end up keeping him there even longer. At least longer then Adachicka. Jose is adorable but really wasn't as good a dancer as the rest of them however, he should be very proud of all he accomplished. I myself hope it comes down to Lauren and Kent because in my opinion, they're by far heads and toes above the rest of them and it has nothing to do with their personality. The judges seem to feel the same way since they usually give them such rave reviews. Again, I think the judges are afraid Kent could go home before his time because his personality makes him do strange things with his faces. My husband watches the show with me and Kent is his favorite. Trust me. It has nothing to do with his personality, lol. He sees a young Gene Kelly in him. I never heard them rave about just his dancing technique until the past two weeks but maybe you see something in him I don't. I just don't see him as being that polished or mature of a dancer and I think it is because of his personality. I do think no matter what he will have a big career ahead of him. I just think Lauren is a much better technical dancer as well as performer. But I wouldn't really be upset if Kent won as long as Lauren ios there with him,lol. I love this show, much better than Idol. I enjoy watching them all dance even the ones that I feel are not as strong as the others. I LMAO on wednesday when Nigel slipped and said Americn Idol and Lauren said it was because of her great singing in her clip. I have to say that I love Kent but somehow I thought Billy was a more mature dancer. I'll be happy if Kent or Lauren win, I like them both. Wednesday night I just fell in love with Billy. BTW, I just read somewhere that Nigel is being wooed by Fox to return to Idol. Ellen Degeneres is leaving the show, Nigel stated that if he went back he would go back to 3 judges and the only one staying is Randy. I guess he would get rid of Kara. I'm enjoying SYTYCD much more then Idols these days. I think all of the contestants were amazing this season but then there were only 11 of them. I've enjoyed watching most of the dancers they've brought back to the show but I would have prefered watching them on their own show instead of with new dancers trying to become America's favorite dancer. I couldn't even tell who were this year's dancer in that opening number last night. They all did a great job but I would have rather seen just the new ones so you could get a better idea of just how good they are. I hear they've decided who will be the "3" judges for American Idol this year. Ellen and Kara are gone. I forget the names of the two new judges. It was on the news though this morning. Yea, I mentioned that on another thread, One is JLO and the other is a guy who sang with a group but I can't remember his name. Ellen left on her own, Kara was fired (I didn't care that much for her anyway. Randy is the only original left.

What is Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle (UUMV) in Texas? Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle occurs when a person operates a motor vehicle without the owner's consent; it is also referred to as joyriding. This statute is different from the general theft statute because in this situation the offender intends to return the vehicle to its rightful owner. As a result, the level of offense is not driven by the value of the vehicle that was used. What is a UUMV in Texas? UUMV is a commonly used short form for Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle. A UUMV charge is a State Jail felony in Texas. The punishment range is 180 days to 2 years in state jail facility and up to a $10,000 fine. While most people think of UUMVs as taking cars, a person can be charged with UUMV for taking a boat, airplane, or any motor-propelled vehicle without permission. What is an Example of Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle? Taking a car for a joy ride can turn into a serious felony charge. A young man who sneaks out at night to use his mother's car and returns home an hour later could be convicted of joyriding. The main difference between joyriding, or unauthorized use of a vehicle, and stealing a car is the type of deprivation that the offender intends to commit: whether she intends to permanently or temporarily deprive the owner of the vehicle. If you are investigated for either offense, you will need a criminal defense attorney who understands the distinction and can fight for the best outcome in your case. (a) A person commits an offense if he intentionally or knowingly operates another's boat, airplane, or motor-propelled vehicle without the effective consent of the owner. Since consent is a common defense to the charge of unauthorized use of a vehicle, the main issue for prosecutors becomes whether the owner consented to the defendant's use of the car on that particular occasion. The fact that the owner permitted the defendant to drive the car on a previous occasion is not enough to establish consent. If you have been arrested or charged with Unauthorized Use of Motor Vehicle, call our team of criminal defense lawyers at 817-203-2220. We are different. Find out how.

My niece said this Chocolate Hot Fudge Brownie Cake was "maybe the best thing I've ever made". And I make a TON of desserts. This post originally appeared on Chocolate, Chocolate, and More. I'm so excited to get to share it with you all here now! Easy desserts are kind of my jam right now, so when I came across this one from Southern Living I was immediately sold. Was it really possible to have a cake, brownie, AND hot fudge sauce all in one? Totally possible. Completely easy. And it's done with NO EGGS. One trick for this is to use a spoon to gently pour the boiling water over the top layer. The trick is to keep the water as the very top layer and not let it break through to the bottom. If you drizzle the water into a spoon and then let it run off the spoon onto the top layer its super easy. I didn't even use a mixer to make this cake. Its that simple, and fast. The bake time does take awhile, but because the prep is such a flash you can have this cake on your table in under an hour. This cake is kind of like the best of ALL of the worlds. Part brownie, part cake, all the hot fudge, and everything a chocolate-lover could possibly want! « Super Simple Chicken Teriyaki Recipe with homemade sauce!

Bangladesh to showcase economic achievements to Sri Lanka President Sirisena in Around South Asia, Bangladesh, Business, Sri Lanka, Top Story Colombo, July 12: During the three-day visit of the Sri Lankan Prime Minister MaithripalaSirisena to Bangladesh beginning on Wednesday, Bangladesh will showcase its economic achievements and seek to step up bilateral trade and investment, the Bangladesh High Commissioner in Sri Lanka, Raiz Hamidullah, told P.K.Balachandran BDNews24. Ties between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have thus far remained at a low level because both had been struggling to contain internal political problems and build their economies. At any rate, intra-South Asian trade has been extremely poor except for bilateral trade between India and individual South Asian countries. Nevertheless, even as far back as the 1980s, some Sri Lankan firms like the Kundanmals moved some of their investments to Bangladesh, where the security situation was better than in Sri Lanka and labor too was cheaper. Although those Sri Lankan firms which set up business ventures in Bangladesh subsequently did well, the movement of capital from one country to the other and bilateral trade remained at a low level mainly because of the economic and security situation in Sri Lanka. However, the end of the Tamil insurgency in Sri Lanka in 2009 bought about a sea change. But Colombo gave priority to massive infrastructural development with Chinese help, leaving other sectors of the economy undeveloped. Trade and investment did not boom. Meanwhile, Bangladesh had taken the path of rapid all-round economic development embracing all sectors – agriculture, industry, power and infrastructure. With the result, today, Bangladesh has a lot to give Sri Lanka in terms of agricultural know how, disaster management and preparedness, pharmaceuticals manufacturing, use of solar power, and IT education and use. At long last, Sri Lanka is seeing Bangladesh as an economic partner and as an economic opportunity. Accompanying President Sirisenaon his three day visit to Bangladesh are representatives of 40 top Sri Lankan companies in diverse fields. And Sirisena himself will be visiting a renowned Agricultural Research Institute. Unlike Sri Lanka, Bangladesh has reached self-sufficiency in food, including rice, having increased food production from 10 million tons in 1972-73 to 39 million tons in 2015/16, although in the same period, arable land had decreased from 9.8 million hectares to 8.27 million hectares due to urbanization. Bangladesh can now join countries like India, Pakistan and Thailand in selling rice to Sri Lanka in times of urgent need. Like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh experiences droughts and floods frequently. But Bangladesh has found ways to overcome the challenges posed by such natural disasters through what the Bangladesh High Commissioner in Sri Lanka, RiazHamidullah calls "climate adaptation techniques." "Bangladeshi farmers in flood prone areas are now using a variety of rice which can remain submerged for as many as seven days without getting damaged. They also use rice varieties which can withstand drought and salinity,"he told this correspondent. "In tackling drought, we have been able to reduce the use of water in rice cultivation by half – from 3500 liters per kg of rice to 1800 liters. This technique can be used in the dry zones of Sri Lanka like the Northern Province," Hamidullahadded. But with its population galloping by two million a year, Bangladesh has to increase productivity in its farms from the present 3.47 tons of rice per hectare to 3.74 tons/ha. "To step up production, Bangladeshi farmers are given subsidies for fertilizer, fuel and electricity. Agro-machines sold with a subsidy of 50 to 70%. Farmers are also entitled to relief and rehabilitation in case of crop loss due to natural disasters," the envoy said. "Production of rice has galloped because of the adoption of High Yielding Varieties (HYV). But these require extensive irrigation and heavy input of chemical fertilizers. Irrigation had increased from 12.46% in 1980-81 to 78% in 2014-15,"he said. However, Sri Lanka will face a snag in regard to the use of chemical fertilizers. There is opposition in the island to the use of chemical fertilizers, which are said to cause Chronic Kidney Disease in certain parts of the island, especially in President Sirisena's North Central Province. But alternatives could be found by joint Bangla-Lankan research. "It is significant that President Sirisena will be visiting one of our rice research institutes. Former President Chandrika Kumaratunga also visited one of our reach centers when she went to Bangladesh in May," Hamidullah said. Bangladesh can also share know how about other crops. According to the FAO, it is the 5 th.largest producer of horticultural items in the world, and the 4 th.largest in mango cultivation. In inland fisheries, it is 4 th.or 5 th. Bangladesh is keen to share with Sri Lanka its disaster preparedness system, which it has "assiduously and painstakingly worked out since 1990-92 through the trial and error method," as the High Commissioner put it. "We have been able to greatly reduce human and cattle loss by putting in an administrative structure which gets activated the moment disaster warnings are received.The structure,which exists in every district, comprises designated officials as well as identified and trained local volunteers. These swing into action as per very detailed Standing Orders. " "Bangladesh remains among the top 20 countries in the list of disaster prone countries.Disasters cannot be stopped. But we in Bangladesh have learned to live with them in a way that we lose the least," he said. At the grass root level,local volunteers are given an yellow jacket,a bicycle, and a torch and each volunteer is assigned a certain number of households in a defined area to take charge of. The moment a cyclone of acertain intensity is announced, these volunteers fan out to their designated areas, and urge people to evacuate to pre-built cyclone shelters with separate shelters for men and women. "If someone refuses to move, the volunteers are allowed to beat them up to get them moving!" Hamidullahremarked to indicate the seriousness with which the task is viewed. "The disaster preparedness system has worked so well that the last cyclone Mora resulted only in five deaths in place of the thousands who would perish earlier," the envoy pointed out. Bangladesh is excelling in the use of Information Technology. There are 23,000 Multi-Media class rooms, and 150, 000 teachers are part of the Teachers' Portal which has put across 80,000 contents to help teachers improve their teaching. The aim is to post 900,000 contents on line. Though unlike Sri Lanka, Bangladesh is not against the use of coal power, it is way ahead in the use of solar energy, with 5 million households already using solar power. Travel, Tourism and Business High Commissioner Hamidullah said that both Bangladeshi and Sri Lankan business are aware of the possibilities of increasing trade, investment and tourism in each other's' countries, but certain factors are hindering trade and investment. "The Dhaka-Colombo-Dhaka air fare is US$ 720. This is much too much for a large and constant flow. Bangladeshis are fond of travel and great spenders. They will come in their thousands if the fares are made competitive. And along with tourists will come potential traders and investors sniffing for opportunities which will be good for both countries," the envoy said. "Sri Lanka's high tariffs are another block to trade. Besides that there are unknown factors hindering trade. Bangladesh's pharmaceutical products are much appreciated in Sri Lanka butthat is not reflected in imports," he pointed out. Sri Lanka, which is short of labor, can make use of Bangladeshi labor, but there is reluctance in the government to allow import of labor, Hamidullah said. "If Sri Lanka is apprehensive about foreign labor settling down permanently,it could issue short term, project related work visas. Countries with a labor shortage import labor in order to develop. If they don't import they will be left behind," the High Commissioner pointed out.

The annual inflation has moved slightly downwards from 8. 86 percent recorded in January 2016 to 8.73 percent in February 2016 due to changes in the inflationary pattern in the various regions of the country, according to the statistics agency in a statement. "The year-on-year rates of inflation increased in Western region from 8.49 per cent in January 2016 to 8.52 per cent in February 2016 and in the Northern region from 10.67 per cent to 10.69 per cent while, the year-on-year rates of inflation decreased in Southern region from 8.42 per cent to 8.18 per cent and in Eastern region from 9.79 per cent to 9.78 per cent," the release states. Contrastingly, the monthly inflation increased from 260.24 percent in January 2016 to 261.25 in February 2015 and the rate of inflation increased in all the regions of the country. "This reflects a monthly increase that is greater than the previous month, meaning that prices are increasing at a slightly higher rate. The increase in the price level for March 2016 was as a result of the decrease in the supply of most domestically produced food products especially the vegetables reinforced by the depreciation of the Leone as against the forex especially the US dollar," the statement reads. The annual inflation also known as the year-on-year rate of inflation is what is mentioned in most reports (if not all) and not the monthly inflation to discuss the country's current level of inflation. In the Monetary Policy Statement of the Bank of Sierra Leone in the first quarter of 2016 for instance, the annual rate of inflation of 8.85 percent recorded in December 2015 was one of the factors considered to keep the monetary policy rate at 9.5 percent until the next monetary policy meeting in the second quarter of the year. Likewise, in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) press release of March 29 this year projecting a 4.3 percent growth in the economy, it referred to the December 2015 annual rate of inflation and forecast an up-tick in 2016 largely based on the current level of the exchange rate.

Eagles Players Reportedly Had To Be Restrained From Confronting Doug Pederson After He Pulled Jalen Hurts Image via Getty/Michael Reaves Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson made the decision to pull quarterback Jalen Hurts for the team's third-stringer during a close game on Sunday, enraging his assistants and players with the apparent tanking strategy. The Eagles fell to 4-11-1 after Hurts' replacement, Nate Sudfeld, threw an interception almost immediately and fumbled later, with the close game rapidly becoming a convincing loss. Though the seemingly intentional sabotage secured a better draft position for the Eagles, the players and coaches under Pederson were reportedly angry about the decision. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, two unnamed defensive players were so heated that they had to be restrained from reaching Pederson on the sidelines. "Two defensive players had to be held back from approaching Pederson," Jeff McLane writes, adding that center Jason Kelce openly questioned the move to the head coach. Pederson, for his part, denied that he was tanking, arguing with a straight face that he felt Week 17 was the time to see what Sudfeld could do, after four seasons with the team. "We were struggling just a little bit to move the ball. Defensively, they kept us in the game with a couple of takeaways late. And my plan was to get Nate in the game," he said on Monday. "Nate's a guy that's very capable of running our system and executing, and [had] an opportunity to pull that game out last night." Trying or not, the move led to a raft of opinion pieces for and against the idea of NFL tanking. The stats nerds over at FiveThirtyEight questioned whether it was a tank or just the Eagles being traditionally inept. Sports Illustrated asked whether the practice was widespread enough to warrant a draft lottery like the NBA. And Twitter, both Birds-based and otherwise, let Pederson have it with both barrels. Eagles running back Miles Sanders also didn't mince his words. "Man if I'm being honest, nobody liked the decision, nobody. That's all I can say really. I don't know who was the main person behind that decision," he said. "All I know is that a lot of people on the team was confused." NewsEaglesPhiladelphiaPhiladelphia Eaglestanking

Change of command: Fort Hamilton says goodbye to and welcomes new Command Sgt. Major By Saul Marquez In Ceremony: Command Sgt. Maj. Tony Stephens relinquishes his responsibilities to his successor, LaShan Hayes, at a ceremony at Fort Hamilton base on June 8. Photo by Trey Pentecost It was a bittersweet farewell. Fort Hamilton Army Base serviceman Tony Stephens transferred his responsibilities as Command Sgt. Major to his successor during a change of responsibility ceremony on June 8, an event that also marked his retirement and highlighted his gratitude toward his colleagues, according to a spokesman from the military installation. "He spoke very highly of his staff members — the soldiers that worked for him," said Bruce Hill. "And he thanked and appreciated his family for sticking with him." Stephens chose to retire after completing more than 30 years of service, including his two-year tenure as Command Sgt. Major, where he acted as an advisor on the base. He took the motto "soldiers helping soldiers" to heart, encouraging his fellow servicemen to donate to the Army Emergency Relief program, which helps soldiers and their families in financial matters, according to Hill. "That was one of his heartfelt projects," Hill said. "He wanted to ensure soldiers were there to help soldiers. He was often encouraging others to help their comrades." And the ceremony also honored Stephens's successor, LaShan Hayes, who will take on responsibilities as Command Sgt. Major for two years until her duties are passed on to someone else. Hill said the exchanging of responsibilities is part of the normal goings-on at the base. "Change of command ceremonies are very commonplace for us," he said. Well Earned: Command Sgt. Maj. Tony Stephens is presented with a certificate of appreciation for his more than 30 years of service.

BISHAM: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leadership may accept the resignation of Member National Assembly from Shangla Dr Ibadullah Khan to pave the way for Amir Muqam to contest election for the NA-31 seat. Dr Ibadullah Khan, brother of the PML-N leader Amir Muqam, was elected to the National Assembly on NA-31 in the general elections held in May 11, 2013.MNA Dr Ibadullah Khan had secured 30,000 votes in the general elections.Amir Muqam had contested the election on NA-30 and PK-80 and PK-82 constituencies. However, he lost the elections and could not make it to the national or provincial assemblies. The sources said the PML-N leadership wanted Amir Muqam to be elected to the National Assembly and had convinced PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif to accept the resignation of Dr Ibadullah Khan. The sources, however, said winning the by-election would not be easy for Amir Muqam. They claimed that the situation was not in favour of Amir Muqam for contesting election from the same constituency for the fourth time. The sources added that the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) had sufficient vote bank in the area and its support would decide the winner. Amir Muqam had been elected from the same constituency in 2002 and 2008 while his brother won the 2013 elections. The sources said the decision to replace his brother as MNA had been taken to enable him (Ibadullah) to contest the local government elections.

This quote was posted on Twitter by Vicki Davis today and was a real inspiration to me. I hope that by being a reflective teacher I am always learning from yesterday - thinking about what worked, what didn't work and what could have gone better. I think I definitely live for today. Every day is an adventure for me - every day I do something new and learn something new. I have a lot of hope for tomorrow too. I feel that our teachers are moving in the right direction and that they will be able to create the most amazing learning experiences for our students given the right support. I also love the last sentence - I think I question everything and I think some people find it a bit too much - but I like asking questions. In PYP schools you are never done with inqury. The questions just keep getting deeper.

West Belfast middleweight Caoimhin Hynes insists he won't be rushed into making a decision over his future. The 21-year-old - who is eyeing up a move into the professional ranks - is preparing for a shot at glory in this weekend's National Elite Senior Championships. Hynes booked his place in the light heavyweight final with a split decision win over Tony Browne on Saturday in Dublin. That has set up a winner-takes-all showdown with the dangerous Brian Kennedy this Saturday night. It is a big opportunity for Hynes after reaching his first-ever Irish Seniors final, following three years of semi-final agony. "I have been beaten in the semi-finals the past three years, and all by split decision," the Holy Trinity boxer said. "I have fought at middleweight and welterweight, and now I am in it at light heavyweight. "This is just a one-off at this weight. I had short notice for the Irish Seniors so I entered at the heavier weight. But I make middleweight easily so that's the weight I will continue to campaign at. "I feel good at light heavy. People questioned whether I would have the power to compete at the weight, but I am powerful and I bring that power up with me. I also have the advantage of speed and movement. "So I am excited by this final. I take a lot of confidence from my semi-final win and now I want to finish the job by beating Brian Kennedy. It is another tough test against a very talented fighter. Hynes has endured a difficult year, inside and outside of the ring. He almost lost his life in a vicious stabbing attack last April, and required surgery on a horrific wound that stretched from his left ear to under his jaw. The attack happened shortly after he won the Montana Belts in France, and after recovering from his stabbing ordeal Hynes went on to win a gold medal at a multi-nations event in Spain. There was more disappointment in November when he lost out to Steven Donnelly in the Ulster Elites, and also missed out on a spot in the Northern Ireland Commonwealth Games team for the Gold Coast. But after that dejection, he is hoping to kick-start 2018 with a bang. "It has been a very tough year for me, and I have done a lot of soul searching," he added. "I took 10 weeks off and only returned to training recently, and then I got the chance to fight at light heavy in the Irish Seniors. "I don't know what options I will have after this weekend. I am only 21 so I am not in any rush. "Like I said, my full focus is on this weekend's fight and everything else can wait until after that."
