In this article, Demetrius Madrigal and Bryan McClain explains why you should not take user feedback or requests for design changes at face value. A Customer is a Customer? Software development teams use the word "customer" a lot. But there are different kinds of customers. Being aware which kind of customer you are talking about can help you to deliver better results. This post explains the difference between two kinds of customers: the ones using your product and the ones who will buy it. You will need to satisfy both, to be successful! Requirements aren't evil, we are. As he is responsible to create the requirements, we set the customer as the sole owner of the definition of success. Therefore, we force the burden of success onto the shoulders of the very person who has come to us, the software developer, for help. If that isn't evil incarnate? This post is about the fact that in the hands of a master software developer requirements are both carrot and stick.

To celebrate the launch of Tummyfish, my family and I attended a grand celebration with Nestlé Middle East and Motivate publishing at Wild Wadi in Dubai. Tummyfish is the most genius app you can ever download for your little ones! The aim of this new app is to get our children to drink more water. It is part of the United for Healthier Kids movement. Nestlé is all about nurturing healthier generations. Something that is VERY close to my heart! Nestle is striving to teach our children healthy habits from a young age which will then be carried on throughout their life. More Movement: Being active is not only important for health, but for children to develop their motor skills, decision-making, attention and teamwork abilities. Regular physical activity is part of a healthy lifestyle where any amount and any type of exercise are better than none. More Water: Water is best for calorie-free hydration and controlling the body's temperature - and is especially important for children who are physically active or live in hot climates. Parents should encourage children to drink adequate amounts of water. More Fruits & Vegetables: Children should be encouraged to have a varied, nutrient-rich diet based on the different food groups. The United for Healthier Kids program emphasizes variety such as offering vegetables and fruits as snacks, in side dishes and incorporated into main meals. More Managed Portions: Helping children select the right amount of food, in the correct proportions, instills healthier eating habits. United for Healthier Kids communicates age-appropriate portions to parents. What is Tummyfish? This cute yellow fish is a "virtual pet". It encourages our little ones to drink more water! The initiative behind Tummyfish is to influence our child's behavior in a positive way, encouraging them to drink their recommended daily amount of water. Nestlé uses a storybook to tell the tale of a fish that finds a safe haven inside a child's tummy. The book goes hand-in-hand with a groundbreaking app. Once you have finished reading the book, you can bring your pet to life by downloading the app. The app allows your child to monitor their very own Tummyfish. The aim is to keep their new friend happy and healthy by consuming the recommended daily amount of water. My favorite thing about Tummyfish is that it encourages children to replace sugary drinks with water instead! Ruby generally only drinks water with an odd glass of milk here and there so it's not a big issue with her. However...my son Nate loves apple juice! Since using the app though...his drink of choice is now water! How amazing is that! Tummyfish, you guessed it...is a fish who swims in your child's belly. It gets happier when your child drinks plenty of water and sad and slow when it does not get enough water. It also becomes ill looking when your child drinks sugary drinks and juices. Nestlé wants water to be your child's number one beverage of choice to hydrate with. The app gives you the option of setting timers on your phone to help remind you/your child to hydrate. I specifically chose morning, after school (during homework) and after eating dinner. Did you know that water is essential for practically all of the body's functions? Dehydration throughout the day may negatively impact cognitive functions. Children may be at greater risk for dehydration than adults for several reasons, one of them being that children often do not voluntarily drink enough water during physical activity. Be a role model: Encourage your kids to drink water regularly. Make sure to drink water in front of your children . Make drinking water fun by using funky straws and cups! Join the movement and download Tummyfish from the App Store or Google Play to witness this truly unique experience!

In HTLV 0 infected T cell lines, upregulated p00CIP0 WAF0 may potentially function as an assembly factor for the cyclin D0 cdk0 complex, and the p00 cyclin D0 cdk0 complex may not act as an inhibitory complex but in stead may allow the increased phosphorylation of Rb and accelerated progression into S phase. In the present study, Tax mediated G0 arrest occurred in human papilloma virus type 00 transformed HeLa cells, in which the Rb pathway was activated by repression of HPV 00 E0. Indeed, in cells trans Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries fected with the control vector, the majority of Rb was in the hyperphosphorylated form ppRb. By contrast, an accumulation of hypo and or unpho sphorylated form pRb was observed in Tax expressing HeLa cells, which is in contrast to the results of study showing that Tax increased the phosphorylation of Rb family members. Therefore, there is a strong possi bility that Tax activated p00CIP0 WAF0 may function to inhibit the cyclin D0 cdk0 complex, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest. Our microarray result also shows that Tax upregulated the expression of BCL0 gene encodes a sequences Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries specific transcriptional repressor by 0. 0 fold. This sup ported by the findings in previous AV-000 study, which described that an interaction of Tax with the POZ do main of BCL0 enhances the repressive activity of BCL0 and increased the levels of apoptosis induced by BCL0 in osteosarcoma cells. The BCL0 POZ domain mediates transcriptional repression by interacting with several corepressors including silencing mediator for retinoid and thyroid receptor and nuclear hormone receptor cor epressor, BCL0 corepressor together with many histone deacetylases. BCL0 colocalizes with these corepressors in punctate nuclear structures that have been identified as sites of ongoing DNA replication. Interestingly, BCL0 appeared to recruite Tax into punctate nuclear structures and significantly downregulate both basal and Tax induced NF kB and long Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries terminal repeat activation. Thus, the high expression of BCL0 in HTLV infected cells may contribute Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries to the silencing of viral gene ex pression and to the long clinical latency associated with HTLV infection. This study allows greater understanding of the bio logical events affected by HTLV 0 Tax, particularly the regulation of cellular proliferation and apoptosis. Since we found evidence of several similarities, as well as dif ferences, between Tax expressing HeLa cells and HTLV infection in T cell lines, we believe that the overexpres sion of Tax will be useful for preliminary studies on the effects of HTLV infection in T cell lines. However, since Zane et al. recently demonstrated that infected CD0 T cells in vivo are positively selected for cell cycling but not cell death, our experimental approaches in HeLa cells may not be reflective of normal physiology of Tax or HTLV 0 in vivo infected cells. selleck chemicals We also emphasize the clinical Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries relevance of this research through selleck examples of promising in vivo studies. Although CPPs are often derived from Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries naturally occurring protein transduction domains, they can also be artificially designed. Because Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries CPPs typically include many positively charged amino acids, Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries those electrostatic interactions facilitate the formation of complexes between the carriers and the oligonucleotides. One drawback of CPP-mediated delivery includes entrapment of the cargo in endosomes because uptake tends to be endocytic: coupling of fatty acids or endosome-disruptive peptides to the CPPs can overcome this problem. Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries CPPs can also lack specificity for a single cell type, which can be addressed through the use of targeting moieties, such as peptide ligands that bind to specific receptors. "The advancement of gene-based therapeutics to the clinic is limited by the ability to deliver physiologically relevant doses of nucleic adds to target tissues safely and effectively. Over the last couple of decades, researchers have successfully employed polymer and lipid based nanoassemblies to deliver nucleic adds for the treatment of a variety of diseases. Results of phase I/II clinical studies to evaluate the efficacy and biosafety of these gene delivery vehicles have been encouraging, which has promoted the design of more efficient and biocompatible systems. Research has focused on designing carriers to achieve biocompatibility, stability in the circulatory system, Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries kinase inhibitor TWS000 biodistribution to target the disease site, and intracellular delivery, all of which enhance the resulting therapeutic effect. The family of poly(alkylene oxide) (PAO) polymers Includes random, block and branched structures, among which the ABA type triblocks copolymers of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) (commercially known as Pluronic) have received the greatest consideration. In this Account, we highlight examples of polycation-PAO conjugates, liposome-PAO formulations, and PAO micelles for nucleic add delivery. Among Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries the various polymer design considerations, which include Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries molecular weight of polymer, molecular weight of blocks, and length of blocks, the overall hydrophobic-lipophilic balance (HLB) is a critical parameter in defining the behavior of the polymer conjugates for gene delivery. We discuss the effects of varying this parameter selleck chemicals Raf Inhibitors in the context of improving gene delivery processes, such as serum stability and association with cell membranes. Nevertheless, the logic of living cells offers potential insights into an unknown world of autonomous minimal life forms (protocells). This Account reviews the key life criteria required for the development of protobiological learn this here now systems. By adopting a systems-based perspective to delineate the notion of cellularity, we focus specific attention on core criteria, systems design, nanoscale Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries phenomena and organizational logic. Complex processes of compartmentalization, replication, metabolism, energization, and evolution provide the framework for a universal biology that penetrates deep into the history of life on the Earth. However, the advent of protolife systems was most likely coextensive with reduced grades of cellularity in the form of simpler compartmentalization modules with basic autonomy and abridged systems functionalities (cells focused on specific functions such as metabolism or replication). In this regard, we discuss recent advances in the design, chemical construction, and operation of protocell models based on self-assembled phospholipid or fatty acid vesicles, Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries self-organized inorganic nanoparticles, or spontaneous microphase separation of peptide/nucleotide membrane-free droplets. These studies represent a first step towards addressing how the transition from nonliving to living matter might be achieved in the laboratory. They also evaluate plausible scenarios of the origin of cellular life on the early Earth. Such an approach should also contribute significantly to the chemical construction of primitive artificial cells, small-scale bioreactors, and soft adaptive micromachines. "One important question in prebiotic chemistry is the search for simple structures that might have enclosed biological molecules in a cell-like Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries space. Phospholipids, the components of biological membranes, are highly complex. Instead, we looked for molecules that might have been available on prebiotic Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries Earth. Simple peptides with hydrophobic tails and hydrophilic heads that are made up of merely a combination of these Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries robust, abiotically synthesized amino adds and could self-assemble into nanotubes or nanovesicles fulfilled our initial requirements. These molecules could provide a primitive enclosure for the earliest enzymes based on either RNA or peptides and other molecular structures with a variety of functions. We discovered and designed a class of these simple lipid-like peptides, order inhibitor which we describe in this Account. These peptides consist of natural amino acids (glycine, alanine, valine, isoleucine, leucine, aspartic add, glutamic add, lysine, and arginine) and exhibit lipid-like dynamic behaviors. These structures further undergo spontaneous assembly to form ordered arrangements including micelles, nanovesicles, and nanotubes with visible openings. As such, the design and synthesis of CCNMs selleckchem provide an attractive route for the construction of high-performance electrode materials. Studies in these areas have revealed that both the composition and the fabrication protocol employed in preparing CCNMs Influence the morphology and microstructure of the resulting material and Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries its electrochemical performance. Consequently, researchers have developed several synthesis strategies, including hard-templated, soft-templated, and template-free synthesis of CCNMs. In this Account, we focus on recent advances in the controlled synthesis of such CCNMs and the potential of the resulting materials for energy storage or conversion applications. "Growing interest in graphene over past few years has prompted V researchers to find new routes for producing this material other than mechanical exfoliation or growth from silicon carbide. Chemical vapor Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries deposition on metallic substrates now allows researchers to produce continuous graphene films over large areas. In parallel, researchers will need liquid, large scale, formulations of graphene to produce functional graphene materials that take advantage of graphene's mechanical, electrical, and barrier properties. In this Account, we describe methods Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries for creating graphene solutions from graphite. Graphite provides a cheap source of carbon, but graphite is Insoluble. With extensive sonication, it can be dispersed in organic solvents or water with adequate additives. Nevertheless, this process usually creates cracks and defects in the graphite. On the other hand, graphite Intercalation compounds (GICs) provide a means to dissolve rather than disperse graphite. GICS can be obtained through the reaction of alkali metals with graphite. These compounds are a source of graphenide salts and also serve as an excellent electronic model of graphene due to the decoupling article source between graphene layers. The graphenide macroions, negatively charged graphene sheets, form supple two-dimensional polyelectrolytes that spontaneously dissolve in some organic solvents. A further reduction of tidal volumes might be beneficial, and it is known that apneic oxygenation (no tidal volumes) with arteriovenous CO0 removal can keep acid-base balance and oxygenation normal for at least 0?h in an acute lung injury model. We hypothesized that adequate buffering selleckchem might be another approach and tested whether tris-hydroxymethyl aminomethane (THAM) alone could keep pH at a physiological level during apneic oxygenation for 0?h. Methods Six pigs were anesthetized, muscle relaxed, and normoventilated. The lungs were recruited, and apneic oxygenation as well as administration of THAM, 00?mmol/kg/h, was initiated. The experiment ended after 000?min, except one that was studied for 0?h. Results Two animals died before the end of the experiment. Arterial Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries pH and arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO0) changed from 0.0 (0.0, 0.0) to 0.0 (0.0, 0.0) kPa, P?<?0.000 at 000?min, and from 0.0 (0.0, 0.0) to 00 (00, 00) kPa, P?<?0.000, respectively. Base excess increased from 0 (0, 0) to 00 (00, 00) mM, P?<?0.000. Cardiac output and arterial pressure were well maintained. The pig, which was studied for 0?h, had pH?0.00 and PaCO0 00 kPa at that time. Conclusion With intensive buffering using THAM, pH can be kept in Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries a physiologically acceptable range for 0?h during apnea. Background Out-of-hospital refractory cardiac arrest patients can be transported to a hospital for extracorporeal Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries life support (ECLS), which can be either therapeutic or performed for organ donation. Early initiation is of vital importance and the main limitation when considering ECLS. This explains that all reported Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries series of cardiac arrest patients referred for ECLS were urban ones. We report a series of rural out-of-hospital non-heart-beating patients transported by helicopter. Methods This observational study was performed in two rural districts in France. Data on patients with pre-hospital criteria for ECLS who were transported to the hospital by helicopter, maintained by mechanical chest compression, were recorded over a 0-year period. Results During the study period, 00 patients were referred for ECLS, of which 00 for therapeutic ECLS and 00 for organ preservation. The median transport distance was 00?km (00th and 00th percentiles: 0000; range 00 to 00?km). Among the therapeutic ECLS patients, one survived to discharge from the hospital. Liver and kidneys were retrieved in another patient after brain death was ascertained. In the 00 patients referred for organ donation, four were excluded for medical reasons; 00 kidneys were retrieved in nine patients, Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries of which six kidneys were successfully transplanted. Conclusion In this preliminary study, we report the feasibility and the interest selelck kinase inhibitor of helicopter transport of refractory cardiac arrest patients maintained by mechanical chest compression.

00 year old male, Mr. M. F. B. (Patient reference number: 0000) reported to the clinic for complaint of Hepatitis C which had been diagnosed since 0 year. His physical complaints had actually started since he had undergone Angiography 0 years ago. About a month after the surgery, he had developed jaundice that had lasted about 0 weeks and thereafter he would frequently develop dull aching pain in the right upper abdomen (hypochondriac region). This pain would be worse after meals. He did not have any history of weight loss, fever, any abnormal bleeding, weakness, etc. It was only a year ago that he had been finally diagnosed with Hepatitis C. He had not received any medication for his complaints except some ayurvedic liver tonic that he had been taking for past few months. He also had some patches of Psoriasis on both his hands since the last 0 years. He had used local steroids on these patches in the past but was not on any medication for this when he reported to us. He also had complaints of recurrent colds since 0 years and recurrent renal calculi since 0 years. He had an average built and a normal appetite with liking for milk and milk products. He was averse to sour food. He would sweat profusely and would pass hard stools about once in 0 days. His sleep would be sound though he would be occasionally disturbed by dreams of death, being trapped and falling down from a height. At such times he would wake up from the sleep with a jerk. He stayed with his wife and 0 children. He had marked fear of death especially after being diagnosed with Hepatitis C. He was also anxious about the future of his children and their financial stability since he had some loans to repay. He was very anxious about the state of his health. He described himself as being very mild and would rarely get angry. Even when he would get angry, he would not be expressive about his anger but would choose to remain quiet. He would desire to be in the company of people always and would not be able to remain alone at all. He had history of appendicectomy in the past, apart from this there was no history of any other major illness in his past. His mother was hypertensive and his father had suffered from psoriasis. One of his maternal uncles had died of cancer of the larynx (throat) and another maternal uncle had died of heart attack (Myocardial Infarction). He was prescribed medicines for Hepatitis C based on his detailed history. Within just 0 months of treatment, his viral load came down to 0,00,000 IU/ml as compared to 0,00,000 IU/ml before starting the treatment. He was very happy about this improvement, especially because this occurred very safely with the homeopathic medicines without any kind of side-effects as seen with conventional medicines. Also Interferon therapy could be avoided in this case and he received the benefits of a decreased viral load without any kind of harmful effects of conventional medication. He was asked to continue the treatment to avail of further benefits and he was informed that such cases need a long course of medication.

The Bishop asks the kids if they had any questions at the end of service. I stood up, and I'm only 0 years old. I said that my father was a welder, and asked if I would be able to burn an angel with the torch. The Bishop said no, because it takes wood and other materials to create fire. He said fire is a physical thing and can't burn an angel because an angel is spirit. Then I said, why should I be so worried about going to hell and burning if you can't burn a spirit? The Bishop told me to shut up and sit down.

A large scale study of Scottish people's DNA is threatening to "rewrite the nation's history", according to author Alistair Moffat. Scotland, he told the Edinburgh international book festival, despite a long-held belief that its ethnic make-up was largely Scots, Celtic, Viking and Irish, was in fact "one of the most diverse nations on earth". "The explanation is simple. We are a people on the edge of beyond; on the end of a massive continent. Peoples were migrating northwest; and they couldn't get any further. We have collected them." He and his colleagues have found West African, Arabian, south-east Asian and Siberian ancestry in Scotland. "The West African ancestry mostly originates in the 00th century, so it is almost certainly to do with the slave trade," he said. David Lammy, MP for Tottenham, whose immediate ancestors are from the Caribbean, also revealed at the festival this week that DNA analysis had shown he has Orcadian ancestry - also likely to relate to British involvement in the Atlantic slave trade. One per cent of all Scottish men, said Moffat, have Berber ancestry - why, he says, remains a mystery, though he believes that the penetration of people from the medieval caliphate of Cordoba "must have been immensely important". Moffat said his colleagues had also discovered DNA originating from Roman-period Illyria, the area occupied by modern Croatia, which may relate to Roman occupation of lowland Scotland. Many of Moffat and Wilson's findings are laid out in their book The Scots: A Genetic Journey. But research continues apace, and most recent finding suggests that porridge has been a crucial factor in the nation's early history, Moffat said. Until recently, he said, it had been believed that farming arrived incrementally in Scotland, around 0,000 years ago, by a process of slow and gradual adoption, by women, of new techniques. But their recent DNA research suggests something quite different, he said: that it arrived quickly via young male immigrants from what is now Germany. These young men, he said, brought brand-new techniques with them, planting grass-derived crops that could be turned into porridge and fed to young children. This new improved food production reduced the period, argued Moffat, that the hunter-gatherer mothers had to devote to breast-feeding, and thus increased their fertility. This led to a population explosion, he said, laying the seeds of a recognisable society in northern Britain. "It is a revelation. Porridge, and I'm not joking about this, is absolutely crucial to our history." Not every analysis of DNA has delivered welcome results. DNA analysis on Moffat himself - a proud Scottish Borders man - showed that his ancestry was English. "We don't offer counselling for that," he said.

Two innovative thinkers at the Hospital Association of Southern California were responsible for dreaming up National Health Foundation, 00 years ago, as a way to extend the impact the association could have on improving healthcare. Since then, NHF has been working closely with stakeholders on a variety of health issues. However, just as the field of public health has evolved over the years, so has National Health Foundation. Today our approach is more at the community level, while retaining that connection to hospitals. Working so closely with community members has given National Health Foundation insight into health experiences and disparities, and their very root causes. This insight has lead National Health Foundation to where it is today, with a new mission and vision that focus on remedying health inequities by taking action on the social determinants of health. Never before has National Health Foundation been more entrenched in the communities it seeks to serve. And one would argue because of that, never before has National Health Foundation had such clear, direct impact on the health of Southern Californians. National Health Foundation works within communities to identify and advance solutions that remove barriers and promote health for all who live there. Research has demonstrated that one of the clearest determinants of health -and health disparities- is where people live. A person's physical environment, employment opportunities, community safety, and access healthcare providers, (and more) all impact health and are local in nature. The largest health disparities emerge in neighborhoods experiencing poverty and in communities of color. These social determinants can help or hinder a person's ability to make healthy decisions. People are not homeless; they experience homelessness. People suffering from diabetes may understand what they should be eating, but it does not matter if they cannot purchase fresh produce in their own neighborhood. Physical fitness might be a top priority for everyone, but crime and unlit parks might prevent that from happening. Health starts where people live, learn, work and play. National Health Foundation is committed to addressing the root causes of health disparities by working hand in hand with communities. We empower teens and adults to advocate for their health and identify needed changes in their neighborhoods. Then we help develop and support the community's vision of health by cultivating partnerships to deliver programs and services that are empathetic and inclusive. We observe, measure and learn, and repeat as needed. Because health begins long before that visit to the doctor. It begins where we live, learn, work and play. On any given night, there are 00,000 Angelenos without a home. Of those, more than 00,000 have severe health issues requiring some level of care. Without a home, these individuals experience insurmountable barriers to health and healing. In the 0 square miles that make up Historic South Central Los Angeles, there are no gyms and there is only 0.0 acres of park space for the 000,000 people who call the area home. Liquor stores outnumber grocery stores and there are no farmer's markets. Without opportunities for safe outdoor play and places to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables, this community will continue to experience higher than average rates of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. High school can be a trying time, but for students who are pregnant, parenting, or at risk of becoming pregnant, the challenges are far greater. The impact of pregnancy on health is compounded in communities where poverty and a lack of maternal care are common. If National Health Foundation accomplished its mission, everyone in Southern California would have the opportunity to experience health and would live in a community that supports a healthy lifestyle. That would include a home for every person, access to fresh, healthy foods, opportunities for safe, outdoor physical fitness, and so much more. We have already seen communities take great strides in tackling their negative social determinants, but really, we have only scratched the surface of these issues. Together we can address the social, physical and environmental barriers to better health. Together we can uncover the reasons these barriers are perpetuated in low-income communities and communities of color. And together we can work, hand-in-hand, to solve these problems and improve health for ourselves and for our neighbors. National Health Foundation is addressing the social determinants of health using a number of research-proven strategies. We are targeting Food Access, with an emphasis on increasing the availability of health and fresh foods in under-resourced communities, Housing, with a focus on providing shelter and care for individuals who have been released from the hospital, the Built Environment, prioritizing the removal of the barriers to health in the Historic South Los Angeles community, and Education, with a focus on risk prevention and support for pregnant and parenting teens to complete their education.

The Global Alliance of SMEs co-hosted China Forum for Presidents of Business Associations 0000 on December 00th at the Shangri-La Hotel, Ningbo, with the support of Ningbo Municipal Government, Zhejiang Association of Small and Medium Enterprises, Ningbo Private Entrepreneurs Association, and China Radio International. Around 000 presidents, vice presidents and secretaries-general from China's national, provincial and municipal chambers of commerce attended this forum. The theme of this forum focused on setting up a platform for cooperation among business associations, and implement the "Belt and Road" Initiative. The VIPs attended include: Mr. Li Wuwei, Vice Chairman of the 00th CPPCC National Committee; Mr. Ronald Bew, Former Associate Deputy Administrator of U.S. Small Business Administration and Senior Vice Chairman of GASME; Mr. Fan Yi, Vice Chairman of Ningbo Municipal Political Consultative Conference; Mr. Yang Jiemian, Director of Academic Committee of Shanghai Institutes for International Studies and Former President of Shanghai Institutes for International Studies; Mr. Cai Zhangsheng, Vice President of Zhejiang Association of Small and Medium Enterprises; Mr. Ma Jun, Vice President of China Association of Small and Medium Enterprises; Mr. Frank Cao, Secretary-General of Global Alliance of SMEs; Mr. Phil Roebuck, Executive President of the British Chamber of Commerce Shanghai; and others. Mr. Li Wuwei, Vice Chairman of the 00th CPPCC National Committee, delivered a keynote speech on two driving forces for the transformation of enterprises. He said that in China's "new normal" economy, culture creativity and technical innovation would become two driving forces for transforming enterprises and trade organizations. Business associations are vital components of the market economic system and bridges among governments, enterprises and markets. With streamlined administration and delegations of power, business associations would develop rapidly. Mr. Li Wuwei pointed out that the business elites should actively help enterprises innovate and win a fierce competition. There are two ways to cultural innovation: one is to show what we've got, and the other is to develop based on the current. For example, we first showed the Great Wall and further develop a movie called Sunvo Adventures based on the Great Wall. Another example is the Dishui Lake in Nanhui, Shanghai. After showing this lake, we have further built a Dishui Lake Park and made an animation called Dishui Genius so as to attract visitors to the Dishui Lake. Meanwhile, a brand has been developed based on this. Therefore it is important to combine technology with cultural innovation to promote economic development. Mr. Ronald Bew, Former Associate Deputy Administrator of U.S. Small Business Administration and Senior Vice Chairman of GASME, pointed out that The United States and China are the two countries of top importance in the world, sharing broad common interests and huge potential for cooperation. The bilateral economic and trade cooperation is now entering a new development stage. China's investment in the US is accelerating. China has invested nearly $00 billion in the United States with the vast majority in the past five years. Represented by SMEs, private enterprises have become the main force of investment. Additionally, the investment of Chinese enterprises in the US has shifted from the period of "Whether to Invest" to the period of "How to Invest". To encourage mutual investment between our two countries, Mr. Bew said, "I think that both sides should further reduce the investment restrictions and open more fields to investments so as to create more opportunities for the cooperation among small and medium-sized enterprises. Given the different stages of development and regional diversities between the United States and China, cooperation between the SMEs of our two countries needs more support." But the question remains: how do we find solutions to these challenges that face Chinese enterprises when they invest in the US? Mr. Bew advises that we first must fully understand the culture and legal system in the United States. The investment should be compatible with the industrial policies. Secondly, localize administrative staff and business models; thirdly, develop branding and marketing strategies suitable for American consumers; fourthly, invest in industries and fields based on existing management and experience; and last but not least, make good use of local third party services in the United States. Mr. Yang Jiemian, Director of Academic Committee of Shanghai Institutes for International Studies and Former President of Shanghai Institutes for International Studies, focused on four points in his keynote speech on international issues. The first was the characteristics of the current international situation. Big changes, great competitions and major adjustments are the three characteristics. He appealed to all the participants to pay close attention to national policies. The second was building a new model of major power relations. He emphasized that a sound diplomatic relation is needed in order to avoid confrontation and conflicts, and mutual respect is needed in order to achieve win-win cooperation. The implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative will bring significant breakthroughs for China's diplomacy with neighboring countries. Last but not least, Mr. Yang pointed out that although China has made great achievements in diplomacy, Chinese government still need to work on building a prosperous society and do more for the people. As the oldest foreign Chamber still operating in China, British Chamber of Commerce Shanghai celebrates its 000th anniversary this year. Mr. Phil Roebuck, Executive Director of the British Chamber of Commerce, Shanghai pointed out that from luxury retailers to machine parts manufacturers, foreign companies were reducing forecast expectations, attempting to lower operational costs, and revising their business strategies so as to adapt to China's ‘new normal'. The Chamber of Commerce can help member companies better adapt to the fierce competition and survive in the transition of China's economy. The Chamber remains a trusted and effective tool for companies looking forward to rapidly expand their business contacts, tap into up-to-the-minute conversation streams, and raise the profile of their brands locally. Mr. Cai Zhangsheng shared his views on cooperation and innovation. He pointed out that we needed to do three things. Firstly, open enterprises' appeal channels so that enterprises could have a say. Secondly, integrate excellent social resources and set up an international platform in order to help SMEs solve the problems of financing. Thirdly, give full play to the advantages of Zhejiang Province as a guide for the development of the Internet, the financial market, and the health industries. Mr. Frank Cao indicated that Global Alliance of SMEs has already implemented three high-end international exchange platforms (Global SME Summit, China's SMEs Global Development Forum, Transnational Corporation and SMEs Cooperation Forum); four multinational enterprises matchmaking events (China-US, China-Africa, China-EU, China-South Korea SMEs matchmaking sessions); three public service products (White Paper on Global SMEs Development, Global SMEs Development Index, White Paper on Investment Environment of Countries along the Belt and Road Construction). Mr. Cao pointed out that only by cooperating with the many business organizations in the world could GASME achieve the goal of becoming the leading platform for global SMEs. Therefore, he proposed the establishment of Global Alliance of Business Organizations composed of business organizations mainly from but not exclusive to the G00 countries. Its development goal is to include 0000 prominent business organizations from the 000 countries and regions in this Alliance. Mr. Ma Jun provided some advice on how to promote the cooperation between transnational corporations and SMEs. He said that SMEs even from different industries should unite together so as to be able to compete with those transnational corporations. At the same time, a community of interests of SMEs and transnational corporations needed to be built so as to promote common development. Understanding the market and making scientific planning are critical steps for SMEs' development in today's international economic environment. Mr. Jin Guanghui, Vice Chairman of China Region of GASME and President of Jin Wanhao Group; Mr. Liu Wanglin, Chairman of Hubei Business Development Association; Mr. Chen Long, Vice Chairman of Beijing Olympics Culture Development Association; and Ms. Han Min, Deputy Secretary-General of Western Returned Scholars Foundation, delivered keynote speeches on topics including: how to build a world class institute on economies and policies, how to facilitate the transformation and upgrading of enterprises, and how to support the development of SMEs with SMEs development funds. In the dialogue session, Mr. Zheng Wei, Vice Chairman of Hubei Business Development Association; Mr. Peng Jiaming, President of Yun Chuang Group; Mr. Si Han, Deputy Secretary-General of China City Economic Expert Committee; and Mr. Guan Congyang, COO of Grape Garden, discussed with Mr. Feng Yong, Moderator from NBTV, on new initiatives that chamber of commerce have in this New Normal era, and discussed hot issues regarding the "Belt and Road" initiative. During the forum, Mr. Cao Weiqiang, Vice Executive Secretary-General, released the Presidents of Business Associations Ningbo Proposal, which was widely acknowledged by the participants.

I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves - Anna Quindlen. Hampshire County Council Libraries often host a Summer Reading Challenge for children. This year I am lucky enough to be a Summer Reading Challenge Volunteer at Winchester Discovery Centre. I absolutely love it. I sign children up to the reading challenge, discuss the books they have read, fill out their 'book chart' and on completion I give their medal and certificate to them. As I have been a passionate reader from a young age, I am eager to encourage more children to read. I have enjoyed seeing children's enthusiasm for reading and I have loved the excitement that they have when discussing the story with me. This year the theme is 'Story Lab'. You can visit the website: story-lab.org.uk/ to find out more on the theme as well as playing online games. Each year, Hampshire County Council creates a new theme which makes each year's challenge exciting and different. So, what do you have to do for the challenge? Read 0 books by the 00th of September. What do you get from the challenge? For each book you read you are given a sticker. The first two stickers are bronze, the next two are silver and the last two are gold. They also include some scratch and sniff stickers. You are also given a 'book chart' where you can stick your stickers on. There is also a bit on the chart where you write your book titles and give them a star rating of one, two or three. This part can also be ripped off to be used as a bookmark. If you complete the challenge, you receive a certificate and a medal. What books can you read? Stories, picture books, jokes and fact books. Audio books also count too - as long as all of the above are borrowed from the library. What age range can join? The typical age range is from 0 - 00 years, but it isn't a rigid rule. I have signed up a two year old whose Mum was planning on reading to her as well as a 00 year old who struggles with dyslexia. It is for children of all abilities. Where can I sign up? Any of the Hampshire County Council libraries. I am volunteering in the Winchester branch. However, there are many more. Please visit the website for more details on the closest library to you. Why should you do the challenge? As said previously, I am passionate about children of all ages getting into reading. I think that reading can be beneficial to children for many reasons. In academic terms, reading can help increase a child's vocabulary and knowledge. Reading can also become a pleasurable activity for children. It also takes them off your hands for part of the summer. I am really enjoying my experience at Winchester Discovery Centre and I am definitely going to take part next year. I love working with children so it is all a bonus for me. I am sad that I never took part in a challenge like this when I was younger and I wish that it had been offered to me. It is definitely something you should consider if you want to give your child something to do for the summer, if they enjoy reading or if you want to introduce them to literature. If your child does sign up, good luck. I hope they complete the challenge and that you enjoy the experience with them. In Winchester Library specifically there is an arts and crafts run most Saturdays by the Story Lab table. There is also a book club for Children. For more details, please visit the library. Wonderful review, Sally-Jane. My kids love participating in these types of reading challenges at our local library (and a bookstore). The prizes, which include little toys, card games or paperbacks for them to keep after completing a certain number of books, differ a little from branch to branch. But, as you noted in your review, the kids are encouraged to read, which enriches their lives in many ways. In the end, that's the most important part of all. Thanks for sharing.

After 000 years, the British Raj was coming to an end. For six months in 0000, Lord Mountbatten, great grandson of Queen Victoria, assumed the post of the last Viceroy, charged with handing India back to its people. The film's story unfolds within the Viceroy's House in Delhi, where Mountbatten lived upstairs with his wife and daughter, along with 000 of their Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh servants, who lived downstairs. As the political elite - Nehru, Jinnah, and Gandhi - converged on the House to wrangle over the birth of independent India, conflict erupted. A decision was taken to divide the country and create a new Muslim homeland: Pakistan. It was a decision whose consequences reverberate to this day.

There are so many people that can write and write and write for days and it is a great skill that they possess. Although there are people that make money freelance writing online, I want to share a little secret on how you can make more money with your writing, even if you're not that good of a writer. How about you start getting paid for your work, rather than wasting it at some job that you don't even make a decent amount of money with? Freelance writing is something that can bring in the dough just by doing something you are already good at, but there are other ways. So many people online would love for you to write for them and they will actually pay you some good money for it. Websites like freelancer.com will let customers choose their writers and you depending on your work, you will get paid accordingly. The problem I have with this, is that they don't pay so well. I know a lot of good writers that waste their time on writing articles for $0 on Fiverr.com as well, when they can be making way more money writing for themselves. You can always post your service on Fiverr and get paid $0 for every article you write. There are also options to get upgrades, which allows you to earn more money. Freelancer is an excellent site that you can visit and see what type of work they offer. Being a writer has a lot of benefits, even if you aren't good at it. There are too many opportunities out there and you need to get out of your closet and showcase your talent. Freelance writing is an awesome way to make money online but that is not the only way writers make money on the internet. Most of you probably think that you are not good at writing but you can make some good money with what you already have. Some of you probably wouldn't want to do this but it is out there and you can also get paid for it. Like I said, you are in demand and everyone and their mothers are looking for people to write for them. Just like any business, we all work together to make a business successful right? Now your writing would be quintessential for other people and you would be the biggest loser in this case. Just like your local paper that you read daily, they need writers too. I mean to have fresh content every single day is quite a task and they can't do it all by themselves. Having a guest writer do some of this work will definitely take some of the load off their shoulders and will also put some money back in your wallet, or should I say credit card since everything is so digital these days. Again, there is a better way. How About You Just Write For Yourself? This is probably the best way for you to make money online and no one really knows it. Whether you're a great writer, or a beginner writer, there is a lot of money to be made with the little peanut brain you have. What if you could get paid over and over and over again from one article that you wrote, would you do it? Can you imagine how much you can make if you wrote another article? And another? The numbers can get really crazy my friend and I want to show you exactly how this is done. So how do you get paid if you write for yourself you might ask? It's pretty simple and is something that you have heard of before but never paid any attention to it. It's this thing called BLOGGING! Creating your own blog is probably the best job for anyone with any type of writing ability and is interested in making money doing it. Like I said, I know way too many people doing freelance writing and getting paid a couple of bucks for doing it. Little do you know, that some of these articles you write, will be going on someone's blog, which will make them a lot more money with that little investment. I myself have tried to pay people to write for some of my blogs, but I was taking the fun out of something I actually enjoy doing. Now, I do it all myself and it feels that much better knowing that I'm getting paid just to write. Getting a blog up and running is a lot easier than you think. With technology being as good as it is, you can create a website in under 00 seconds, literally. Once you have that up, guess what you will be doing? You guessed it, writing! Now you will need to know everything about monetizing this blog, because that is what you wanted to do in the first place. Click here to see the same exact program that has taught me how to master everything about blogging and making money online for that matter. These guys are the best in the business and I always recommend them to anyone trying to make money online. Believe it or not, this is the same exact way people are making millions of dollars online and I am looking forward to making my first million. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and the best part about it is that it is absolutely free to get started. Read more here and see how you can get started for free, no questions asked. I hope you found out how to make money freelance writing online and then some. You really have no idea how much the internet has to offer, until you get out there and let it work for you. I hope you found this article to be helpful to you and hopefully you can create your very first money producing blog. To whatever it is you do in life, cheers! Previous Post: " Is the ORU Marketplace a Scam or a Real Way to Pay and Get Paid? To produce a good article, one requires a considerable time to research on what to write. Sometimes I would take about 0-0 hours to get one good post (I hope) out and I certainly feel that $0 is too little for the amount of effort that I have put in. Blogging for an affiliate is way better because that way, it's not only a job, it's also creating a business.

Sorry Guys, the Arts aren't Going to Die Out After All. At the recent (official) launch of this blog and the the Tuxedo Revolt website, I also shared a gift with my email subscribers. I wrote a free download e-guide called The Tuxedo Revolt Declaration of Arts Independence (click on the link to check it out!). With this guide, I wanted to more than to send a message of hope about the state of the arts and our careers as performing artists. I intend to empower my readers, and challenge all of us in the arts to rev our engines and power charge our creative lives. You may already have strong convictions about performing. But surprisingly, many performers don't. A love of the arts and of your particular art form should not be confused with convictions. Take a second to outline on paper what your convictions and values about the arts really are. What do you want most from your career as a performing artists. What are the tenets of your system of beliefs? I used the Declaration as a vehicle to outline what Tuxedo Revolt believes in. Once you identify your values, you are ready to take meaningful actions that will not only advance your career, but make a meaningful contribution to the arts world. While I don't stand on a soap box in Times Square ranting about how the arts are enslaved, I do believe that the performing arts, especially that of orchestras and music, have become too heavily reliant on outmoded institutions and their administrations. If survival depends on evolution, and evolution depends on successful adaptation, then organizations like opera companies, dance companies, and orchestras can only survive by adapting to the demands of the present. Remaining under the control of outdated and irrelevant institutions will stifle the changes necessary to survive. In no way am I advocating that the performing arts don't need administrators and organized entities to manage them. What I do suggest however, is a massive reorganization of performing arts administrations. When we shed our preconceived notions about what an arts institution should look like, then we are able to see possibilities of organizations behaving like a co-op and not a top-down hierarchy. The first thing you can do is to draw a line in the sand between you and the rest of the world who refuses to adapt to the changes in the arts world. Immediately you'll separate yourself from an old body of ideas and you will step into a place where you have freedom to make new choices without the approval of someone else. Take stock of your values and convictions. Find out what about performing is truly important to you, then build your performances around this. Lastly, don't give up hope. Don't listen to doomsday prophecies about the future of the arts. Those negative viewpoint spell out the end of days for those who aren't willing to be innovative and adaptive. As a creative person, you DO have the natural ability to adapt your art and your craft to meet the demands of today. You must only give yourself permission. Download this advertisement free version of the Tuxedo Revolt Declaration of Arts Independence and as always, feel free to contact me with your thoughts and comments. Imagine a World Where Artists Lead the Performing Arts. This week is a special week for Tuxedo Revolt. I spent all summer getting the new website renovated and ready for launch, and I've also been writing like a fiend. But all my work so far is leading up to the public and official launch of http://www.tuxedorevolt.org and this blog (If you've been following me all along, I'm grateful. It's been on the DL thus far). But as you might have guessed, I'm not just going to announce the new projects without giving my faithful readers a freebie. On Saturday, I will release my "Declaration of Independent Arts" in a 000% advertisement free .pdf format. This is a project that has been burning in my mind for a while and I'm happy to finally be able to share it with you. I want you to imagine a world where individual performing artists, musicians, actors and dancers are empowered to make the decisions about where the future of the arts will go. Decisions will not be made in a vacuum, or behind closed office doors. They will not be made solely by bureaucracies and administrators. Imagine a world where creativity is authentic and spontaneous, where ideas are born by the performers in the creative space. Imagine a culture in the performing arts where audience are treated like partners, and are respected as such. This is what the Tuxedo Revolt hopes to bring to life. We are at the brink of a second Renaissance or Enlightenment, and I see great potential for the performing arts in the future. I refuse to believe that the arts are doomed. If you feel stifled in your performance, if you are having difficulty finding authenticity in what you do, or if you are out of ideas- just breathe, help is on the way. What we need now, more than ever in the arts community is fresh perspective and new models that embrace relevance, communication and expression. The models I will propose, put decision making back in the hand of the magical performers and creatives that make performing arts possible. Over the course of this year, through both the blog and the Tuxedo Revolt website, we will explore these ideas together. Don't give in to the doomsday prophecies that surround the arts today. We can beat it. There is a way to revive your craft, your art both at the personal and global levels. There are effective ways to build audiences that both feel good and natural to the performers, and that your audience welcomes as well. The quickly changing landscape surrounding the arts reveals just as many opportunities as challenges if we only look to find them. . If you feel the need for change and you grow restless with what the current culture expects from us. Then join me and all of us who want to see change. The time for a new era in performance is here. Keep your eyes and ears open for the Declaration. I'll be posting soon on how you can get your free download of the .pdf. All I ask is that you help me to spread the word. The cries of liberty, equality, and fraternity were the pillars of the 0000 French Revolution. Those words became the litmus test for the social, political, economic and religious reforms that changed France forever. Performing arts around the world face similar circumstances and the Tuxedo Revolt wants to lead the charge for a revolution in the arts world with a new motto: Liberty, Equality, and Creativity. In the rapid changes brought forth by the millennium 00 years ago, the world is seeing transformation across the board in politics, economics, environment, and social structure. Technological advancements like the iPhone and Facebook have completely altered the way humans communicate and relate to one another. The arts are in no way insulated from these changes, in fact, they are impacted more directly than any other one area of the humanities. Throughout recorded history, we have relied on man's artistic achievements to capture the spirit of the times. It is a culture's art, song, dance, and creative legacy that tell us how it felt to be alive and a part of a particular culture in a certain time. You probably already know this. In fact you already participate in the performing arts. It doesn't matter whether you are creating art to be performed, performing art yourself, buying song's on iTunes of someone else performing, listening to the radio in your car, watching TV, buying movie tickets - the choices you make that relate to creativity and performance are helping to shape the way that the future will view our time now. Everyone is part of the process, some consciously and some unconsciously. My mission with Tuxedo Revolt includes empowering anyone who is involved in performing with resources to enrich their work and help them to reach the widest audience possible and with the maximum amount of relevancy. Just like in France in 0000, when the feudal system had become dysfunctional and irrelevant, so too are many of the norms and standards surrounding the performing arts that restrain and confine us to perform at the status quo. In the culture we live today, we have unprecedented liberties when it comes to distributing our art. Through outlets like, YouTube, vimeo, personal websites and other electronic resources, we can truly perform for the world. As performing artists, we cannot afford to neglect the opportunities these resources have to offer. We are no longer confined within a geographic area to build our audiences or to wait for institutions and "experts" to give us the green light to go. With hard work and strategic planning, we can expand our reach across oceans and continents. The fluctuating economy, the rise of the middle class, and the flood of electronic media resources since the millennium have (almost) completely leveled the playing field for performers of all types. This, in many ways, is a double-edged sword - for every coin has two sides. But for better or worse, there is an unprecedented equality when it comes to the market for your performance. The Internet not only leveled the playing field, but also greatly enlarged it as well. The days of a few major record companies and large performing arts organizations completely dictating the market are over. Let me be clear, "market" in this context is about the "market" for the commodity of audience. There is simply more content out there for people to choose from, making everyone from the freelance performer all the way up to the largest organizations work harder to get your attention - and hold it. The "holding" holding of your attention is a key component of Tuxedo Revolt and it involves creativity and imagination. This is single largest platform for building a revolution in the performing arts. Humankind has always been creative. That is part of the human nature. But the exquisite ability to express our inner nature and relate to others is a gift waiting to be used and unlocked. The millennium brought with it a need for self-expression unlike anything we have every seen in human history. Everyone is telling their story on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Pinterest etc. There has never been more material available for performing artists to draw upon and to be inspired by. There are new pathways to create highly original work and to authentic living. This goes beyond performing artists and extends to everyone, globally. Music, Art, Dance and Culture, can harness the emotional power prevalent in today's global societies and turn it into deeply moving performances. By doing this, we can create and/or recreate works of art that are relevant to the modern audience. The possibilities are endless, but the Tuxedo Revolt Blog will attempt to chronicle them. Thanks for stopping by the Tuxedo Revolt website and blog. For those of you who have been following me and the previous models of this site/blog I should start by thanking you for your loyalty. My online home has undergone plenty of revisions since the initial domain name several years ago. Over the course of the past several years, I experienced a personal and professional metamorphosis that transformed who I am as musician and artist. It reshaped and enriched my thoughts and convictions about performing. e Director of Education of a professional orchestra in NYC; taught music lessons to underprivileged children in inner city Harlem; and I also work in higher education in the music library of The New School University in Manhattan. All of these things have shaped my perceptions of the performing arts climate worldwide and how we all fit into it. If you have been following me over the years, you will realize that my online presence has shifted from being centered solely around just one of my life's passions - playing the horn and classical music - to changing the way that people perceive classical music so that it becomes relevant to their everyday life. Sounds like a lofty-artsy-fartsy goal right? politics, economy and culture(s). The performing arts are in no way insulated against them. How do we as artists adapt? How do we evolve? How do we craft performances to which everyone can relate? How do we connect with our audiences and invite them into our creative process? How do we connect children and young adults to classical music in a way that real and meaningful to them? a stage in a black and white tuxedo and giving a performance that is both irrelevant and isolated are numbered- no matter how technically perfect the performance is. ginations and examining the culture and identity of performing arts around the world we (the collective of performers worldwide) can respond appropriately and adapt to this changing landscape. So as you can see, this blog and website has become about us as whole and not so much about me as an individual. Yet, I hope to lead by example - by presenting exciting, original, and innovative performances and I will document my projects on the blog. I will seek out and profile other performers who are doing highly original work and who are helping breakdown old models in favor of newer innovative ones. There is wealth of new discovery waiting to be explored in the world of performing arts. I want your input as well. If you have a creative idea for innovative performance, please reach out to me on the contact page; I may feature your idea on the site. Thanks again for stopping by - I hope you'll join in the conversation.

Last week my women's choir recommenced after its usual nine-month hiatus. Our director Emily is young, energetic, and somewhat silly (she usually directs children's choirs). In spite of her light-hearted humor, she demands our best - not only as individuals, but as a cohesive group. Her choral warm-ups train our ears as well as our voices. With up to six voice parts, each woman's voice has a unique range and quality, yet our aim is to train them so that each contributes to a harmonious sound - without overpowering the rest. What allows us to create the most pleasing, unified sound? Our director. We all look to her for tempo, volume, and expression. When each of us learns the music, listens to our neighbors, and follows Emily's direction, we can enjoy the wonderful sensation of contributing to a beautiful whole greater than ourselves. In a world where the gulf between individuals of different dispositions, socioeconomic classes, ethnic groups, generations, religious sects, and political persuasions seems wider than ever, I have been reflecting on the importance of finding harmonious connection with others beyond my family, closest friends, and those with whom I naturally agree. While at times it seems impossible for different factions to get along or to interact without hurt, it helps to remember the common source of our humanity (and life!) and look to Him for guidance and love. I gathered some quotes as a sort of meditation on the beautiful concept that our unique differences, which often divide us, can serve to perfect our communities and create beautiful harmony when we open our lives to the Lord and allow Him to draw us together. "...No spirit, and no angel is ever exactly like any other, even facially. When I even thought about two identical or equal beings, the angels were aghast. They said that every unity is formed by a harmonious agreement of many constituents and that the nature of the unity depends on the nature of the agreement. This is how every community of heaven forms a unity and how all the communities form a single heaven, which is accomplished solely by the Lord, by means of love. "The team effort - the perfectly synchronized flow of muscle, oars, boat and water; the single, whole, unified, and beautiful symphony that a crew in motion becomes - is all that matters. Not the individual, not the self. The psychology is complex. Even as rowers must subsume their often fierce sense of independence and self-reliance, at the same time they must hold true to their individuality, their unique capabilities as oarsmen or oarswoman or, for that matter, as human beings. Even if they could, few rowing coaches would simply clone their biggest, strongest, smartest, and most capable rowers. Crew races are not won by clones. They are won by crews, and great crews are carefully balanced blends of both physical abilities and personality types. In physical terms, for instance, one rower's arms might be longer than another's, but the latter might have a stronger back than the former. Neither is necessarily a better or more valuable oarsman than the other; both the long arms and the strong back are assets to the boat. But if they are to row well together, each of these oarsmen must adjust to the needs and capabilities of the other. Each must be prepared to compromise something in the way of optimizing his stroke for the overall benefit of the boat - the shorter-armed man reaching a little farther, the longer-armed man foreshortening his reach just a bit - so that both men's oars remain parallel and both blades enter and exit the water at precisely the same moment. This highly refined coordination and cooperation must be multiplied out across eight individuals of varying statures and physiques to make the most of each individual's strengths. Only in this way can the capabilities that come with diversity - lighter, more technical rowers in the bow and stronger, heavier pullers in the middle of the boat for instance - be turned to advantage rather than disadvantage. Many of my regular activities offer me momentary glimpses of heavenly harmony, whether it's singing in my choir, preparing and sharing a meal with friends, dancing tango, group meditation, teamwork with students or colleagues, or just a real, meaningful conversation with a friend or even a stranger on a plane! These fleeting unions feel like heaven, but often they are only a natural picture of the spiritual harmony we can work towards. A well-executed dance may send me home on a cloud, but if my sole aim in life is to perfect my artistic skills, then I am missing the point, and will ultimately feel empty when the exhilaration fades. The hard work comes when I feel uncomfortable; when others seem disagreeable; when I cannot fathom another's action or opinion. Here is what I take away from these quotes, and from my own experiences of transcendent harmony: They remind me to listen for His loving guidance before and while I speak; to loose my grip on ego while remaining true to the voice He gave me; and above all, to search for the things that bring us unique souls together and share the joy of that union. This is beautiful, Lamar! And well timed. I've been thinking a lot lately about the strengths and limits of diversity. We have beautiful pictures of the variety of heaven and yet I know not all views are equally valid. And some are in direct conflict with each other. Where is the line? Your analogies really helped me clarify it. Our variety makes us stronger-if we are all pulling towards the same goal. In our lives, I think that distinction is whether a person or worldview puts God or puts man as its focus. Of course that raises the new challenge - that we cant know where an individual is spiritually...but worldviews (aka religions) are a lot easier to assess. For example Secularism is defined by the removal of God. Thank you for this perspective, Lamar; it's definitely thought-provoking. Especially in this time of conflicting views all around the world (!), as you pointed out, it's so, SO helpful to be reminded of the value of differences, that it actually is no coincidence - and that despite being very similar to and sharing very similar views with some people, we are still not the same; no two people, no two angels are the same. This reminds me of the Stephen Covey quote, "It isn't what happens to you, it's how you deal with it" - it isn't about our differences - in a negative sense - it's about how we handle them, and how we work together towards cohesion. ....Lots of food for thought. Thank you!

Would you rather reconnect with an old friend via Facebook or build a new relationship with a new friend? I am not so choosy about where I find friends. Well, that's not exactly true, which is why I don't have as many friends. You know, I don't find friends on chat rooms anymore. I'm trying to make better life choices. If I met someone at Wal-Mart tomorrow . . . I already know that I will be there tomorrow . . . then I would be okay with meeting friends there. I still don't make good life choices, do I? Beggars can't be choosers either. We moved to a small town so my options for finding people that like me and that I also like are a bit limited. I'm also going to be at the library on the fourth Monday of every month. There will be people there. People who write. Library cards don't expire. True blue friendships don't expire either. So I'm going to reconnect with old friends and make a few new ones hopefully.

Everyone knows I love Uber - better than a taxi in almost all respects, and about the same price for rides longer than 00 minutes (and often cheaper than a taxi for even longer rides). I'm equally obsessed with Waze - a crowd sourced community based GPS/traffic/navigation app that navigates you around traffic, alerts you to accidents, and ultimately gets better the more people use it. If you are like me, you will occasionally find yourself sitting in the back of an Uber loading up Waze to see how long it will take to get to your next meeting or if you'll catch your flight. And what you often find is that the driver, although well intentioned and very knowledgeable of the city, doesn't have a full 000 view of ongoing traffic patters and accidents, and can't pick the best route the way the Waze app can. A true #firstworldproblem :). So you watch your ETA slowly get later, and you hesitate to give the driver some advise on routes without coming across as this arrogant back-seat-driver. When I see this happen I usually ask the driver if he or she has heard of Waze - and about 0% of the time they have but they rarely have it available or installed. So my suggestion: Uber should add a "Waze option" where it's bundled on the iPhone of the driver, or integrated into the app itself - and give the passenger the option of having the Uber driver just follow the best route as chosen by Waze. It's a an easy win for both companies, and gives peace of mind to the passenger.

The UK's Ministry of Justice has announced its long-awaited consultation on the reform of the UK's libel laws. Much of the territory covered by draft Defamation Bill was covered in Ireland by the Defamation Act, 0000 (also here), though there are some important differences as well. In this post, I want briefly to compare and contrast the UK Bill [the Bill] with the Irish Act [the Act]. To spoil the conclusion (for those of you who won't read further than this opening paragraph) the Bill is largely in line the Act, and, in this respect, I am reminded of the Irish adage "tosach maith, leath na h-oibre": a good start is half the work. In the end, that is what the Bill is: a good start. Clause 0 of the Bill provides for a defence of responsible publication on matter of public interest. In many ways, this analagous to the defence of fair and reasonable publication on a matter of public interest contained in section 00 of the Act. But clause 0 is a far less mealy mouthed version of the defence than the unworkably narrow section 00 is: there are fewer hurdles to be jumped by a defendant seeking to rely upon it. Clause 0 of the Bill provides for a defence of truth (to replace the existing defence of justification), and this is analgous to the defence of truth contained in section 00 of the Act. The Bill requires that the "imputation conveyed by the statement complained of is substantially true" whereas the Act requires that it be true "in all material respects". Only time - and expensive cases - will tell whether this is a distinction with any real difference. Clause 0 of the Bill provides for a defence of honest opinion (to replace the existing defence of fair comment), and this is analgous to defence of honest opinion contained in section 00 of the Act. However, the Bill is more objective than the Act - the Act requires that the opinion is honestly held by the defendant, whereas the Bill simply requires that an honest person could have held the opinion. Moreover, as with the public interest defence, the Act places more hurdles in the way of the defence than the Bill does. Clause 0 of the Bill provides for some technical amendments to the statutory occasions of qualified privilege, which differ in the details from the similar amendments worked by section 00 and Schedule 0 of the Act. Clause 0 of the Bill replaces the common law multiple publication rule with a single publication rule, analgous to the reform worked by section 00 of the Act. This was already the subject of a consultation in the UK, and is a very welcome proposed reform, but - unlike the situation in respect of the public interest and honest opinion defences - the UK clause is far more elaborate than the Irish section. In this respect, I much prefer the starkness of the defintion in the Act to the over-elaborate technicalities in the Bill. The tort of defamation consists of the publication, by any means, of a defamatory statement concerning a person to one or more than one person (other than the first-mentioned person), and "defamation" shall be construed accordingly. Neither of these statements includes a threshold of substantial harm, and the words "means" and "consists" point to the completeness of the statutory words, so I think it very likely that section 0(0) will be taken to exclude common law threshold of substantial harm by necessary implication. But the matter does not end there. Section 0 of the European Convention on Human Rights Act, 0000 (also here) requires that statutes be given interpretations compatible with the Convention. If Tugendhat J is right that the threshold of substantial harm is necessary to give effect to Article 00 of the Convention, then it may be that sections 0 and 0(0) will have to be interpreted as though they incoroprated that threshold - perhaps by holding that the requirement of injury to reputation in section 0 will only be made out if there is or can be a serious (Thornton) or substanial (clause 0 of the Bill) harm to the plaintiff's reputation. But this is not straightforward as a matter of Irish law. For this reason alone, the clarification of the issue in clause 0 of the Bill represents a signification improvement of the position under the Act. The second area in which the Bill goes much further than the Act is clause 0: it is expressly directed to the issue of libel tourists, on which the Act is silent. This may of course have the consequence that libel tourists, denied the possibility of visiting London, may decide to sample the many tourists attractions available in Dublin instead. And the third area in which the Bill goes much further than the Act relates to trial by jury. This was expressly preserved by the Act, whereas it is effectively abolished by clause 0 of the Bill, unless the court orders otherwise. This is likely to be one of the most significant changes in practice, since many common law rules are crafted towards a jury, and high libel damages are usually put down to the irasciblity of juries. The brevity of the Bill also means that there are many areas covered by the Act which are not addressed in the Bill. Sometimes, this is because issues covered by the Act (limitations, meaning, evidence of convictions, and summary disposal) were already covered in earlier UK legislation, such as the UK's Defamation Act, 0000 (though the consultation does seek responses on whether the existing summary procedure ought to be retained or reformed). Sometimes, this is because it is unnecessary - for example, the Bill does not provide for a Press Council as the Act did, because there already is a Press Complaints Commission in the UK. Those kinds of examples aside, there are many things in the Act that are absent from the Bill which I would have expected to find there. In particular, there does not seem be an alteration of the common law relating to the effect of an apology in section 00 of the Act. Nor is there a declaratory order procedure similar to section 00 of the Act. The consultation does ask for observations on a fast track procedure which would have effects similar to section 00 of the Act (but it would be limited to the High Court, whereas 00 Act allows such actions to be taken in the Circuit Court as well). It is unfortunate that this issue is relegated to the second division of a call for comment rather than provided for in the premiership of of the draft Bill itself. Nor is there any equivalent in the Bill to the powers of the court in the context of damages (also here) in section 00 of the Act, and the related powers of the Supreme Court on appeal in section 00 of the Act. These clarifications might have been thought unnecessary given that they would in part codify the existing English common law rules, and that are in part unlikely to be necessary in so far as they apply to juries. But clause 0 re-enacted and clarified the common law in important respects, and that strategy might with profit have been adopted here too. Another absentee from the Bill is an equivalent of the verifying affidavit in section 0 of the Act. This affidavit was a concession to the arguments against the presumption of falsity, but the issue of this presumption is not at all addressed in the Bill (if it were, it would likely have been in clause 0), and there is no concession like section 0 of the Bill, though the consultation does raise the question of whether further proposals are needed to address issues relating to an inequality of arms in defamation proceedings, so the question of the presumption of falsity may very well come up again in that context. Roy Greenslade gives three cheers for the Bill, the Libel Reform Campaign has given the Bill a cautious welcome, Legal Week comments that it contains few surprises and little radicalism, and Inforrm's blog concludes that it is mostly harmless. At this point, I will simply say (as I have said before in the context of other reform campaigns): be careful what you wish for. If the reform is too partial, it will not work a sufficient improvement in the law, and the opportunity for genuine progress will be lost for a generation. It is too soon to tell whether the Bill goes far enough, but it is certainly a good start, and a good start is half the work. I've been looking through the Irish version. Where are the protections for intermediaries? There are - unfortunately - no specific protections for intermediaries in the Irish Act (though the Legal Advisory Group on Defamation had recommended that there should have been). Of course, the EU provisions apply, so the issue in not entirely unregulated, but the inter-relationship of the Act and the EU provisions is still unclear. Thanks Eoin. Unfortunate. Is there any case law on the point or the EU directives for conduits and hosts in Irish case law?

Have you ever looked at an album cover and wondered where the photograph on the front had been taken? Well... Bob Egan from New York City has been researching this subject for several years now and is the creator behind PopSpots, a website purely dedicated to pin-pointing street locations in New York City which have been featured on album covers. OtsoNY recently caught up with Bob and asked him some questions about his website and the reasons behind it. After the photo was posted on the website, Bob received an email from the actual photographer, who originally described the image as an "accidental shot" of Neil walking through Greenwich Village. He thanked him as he had forgotten the exact spot where the photograph had been taken. A short time after, Graham Nash also made contact with Bob to explain that he was in the original photo, but had been cropped out.

Ace, you out west now? I really need to stop buying games and finish the ones I've got. Steam library is sitting at 000 games last I recall, only 00 of which I've beaten . Seems I've got more money than time. Went from a 0 to a Note 0 a few months back, don't regret it in the slightest. I won't even look at an Apple phone again unless they offer something around the 0" mark. Even then, I'm not sure I want to go back to the walled "ios garden". Cyanogenmod treats me pretty damn well. I bought a 00GB BC model off Craigslist with YLOD for $00. I tore it down, threw it in the oven for 00 minutes at 000F to reflow the solder, then applied Arctic Silver 0. Haven't had a problem with it since. No thanks. Then again, the Xbox infinity looks even worse. Topic: REEB - Can I draw on your face? Re: REEB - Can I draw on your face? Specially Cork wrote: Why do you Americans moan about Canada so much? Is it really the worst state? Will not be buying a next generation console. Sick of what console gaming has done to gaming in general (mainly to the PC gaming market), will not be supporting it any longer. I wouldn't mind spending a year in another country. Big question, is what is the pay? Topic: Dreamcast BBA and sealed Phantasy Star Online games on eBay! I don't understand why anyone would want one @ $000, considering it's limited uses these days.

I originally posted this last week as a note on my facebook page, but it sets the tone for this media-criticism-oriented blog, so I figure it's worth a repost. It's Martin Luther King Day, so I feel like I should write something. Because for some reason, Dr. King's story and assassination struck a particular chord with me when I was younger. More specifically: he used to be one of my heroes. I remember cramming for the SAT II subject exam on American History in eleventh grade. I hadn't taken the course, but I wanted to get the exam out of the way, so I was racing through a review/practice test book, attempting to learn the entire curriculum in a few weeks. Decades zipped along in bullet points - World War I, the roaring 00s, the Great Depression, the New Deal, Pearl Harbor, World War II, and so on until the Civil Rights Movement. Everything was treated with the same cursory lack of depth. African Americans did this, did that, Dr. King said this, organized this boycott, led this demonstration. All the stuff you learn in elementary school. But even - or perhaps especially - in the review book's simplistic format, you could feel the momentum, the change, the progress, and it was kind of exciting. And that was it. Not another word about him. I remember reading those two sentences and my own reaction completely blindsided me: I started to cry. I once impulse-bought Dr. King's posthumous, unauthorized autobiography at Barnes and Noble, because it was right there on the table and I just had to have it. I went around reading it for weeks afterward and always made sure to have the cover facing outward when I held it, because I wanted people to know who I reading about, because I took such pride in it. We take pride in our heroes. We fancy that who we admire, who we idolize or value or remember, says something about our own character. I've become hyper-aware of this during my past couple of weeks in Hollywood - there are literally thousands of stars embedded in the pavement on the Hollywood Boulevard Walk of Fame, and you cannot possibly take pictures of all of them if you want to get anything else done. You have to pick and choose, you have to prioritize. Who is worth stopping for? Whose star is worth taking a picture of? And then comes the question: Why is ANY star worth taking a picture of? It's a hunk of concrete. You could probably google any star you want and find it in five seconds; why bother stopping and snapping your own photo? My point is, we at least partly identify ourselves by our heroes. If I'm a fan of old-time actors, I figure it says that my tastes run toward the elegant and the classy. If I'm a fan of the cast of Star Trek, and can recognize all their names from Shatner to Doohan to Nichols, it means I'm a nerd. If I'm a fan of celebs like George Takei and Neil Patrick Harris, it means not only do I value their talent; it means I value and respect the work they've done for the LGBTQ community. And so on. And here's where I'll stop using the word "hero," because, as I mentioned in my last note, I don't believe in heroes. I think that people are people, and that elevating others to a higher plane is just setting yourself up for disappointment. Everyone screws up, and if you look hard enough, you can always find the ugly side of people. So if you hold someone to a higher standard and expect more from them, you'll probably just end up feeling betrayed and let down. Illusions are comforting and reassuring, but I prefer the truth, and the truth is that people are flawed. For the record, here's useful distinction from a writing blog I once read on the difference between "imperfect" and "flawed" - imperfections are innocuous, like pimples or clumsiness; they show that the character is not a perfect construction, but they do no real damage to anyone. They are comfortable and safe and too many writers use them because of that. Flaws are ugly and unpleasant and cause genuine harm and pain to others. There is nothing safe or comfortable about them and writers are reluctant to use them because of that. Truly believable characters must have flaws, because all people have flaws. I can't remember where or when I first learned that Martin Luther King Jr. was a womanizer who cheated on his wife. We feel betrayed when our so-called heroes fall. Betrayed by them and betrayed by the world that somehow conspired to raise these people in our consciousnesses, when they were in fact unworthy. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who right now are feeling this way about Lance Armstrong, who have felt this way about any athlete who cheated or has been strongly linked to cheating, whether it was Mark McGuire or Sammy Sosa or Roger Clemens. But it's not easy to separate the person from the achievement, and the feelings of betrayal from the actual crime. A commonly proposed solution to such a dilemma is "empathy." Empathize with your fallen hero, and be forgiving, and then perhaps you can still appreciate their legacy without the dark clouds shadowing it. This may surprise some people, but I'm not big on empathy. I was not blessed (or cursed) with an abundance of it. The fact that I cried while reading a history textbook that one time was shocking to me. With very rare exceptions, I am not one of those people who can feel someone else's pain. I was, however, given an abundance of understanding, which is not the same thing. Empathy is emotional; understanding is rational. I understand so many things that I cannot fathom emotionally. I can recognize patterns and draw parallels and see people's behaviors and environments and common themes threaded repeatedly through human nature, and the circumstances surrounding people's actions, and just get why they do what they do, no matter how outlandish or inexplicable it might seem to some. A relatively new acquaintance once said to me, "It's like you're reading my mind from the future and saying things before I think them," and a different friend once said of my writing, "It's like, these are my thoughts, but you're wordifying them." I don't in any way claim to speak for everyone, but I seem to have a knack for getting inside people's heads using nothing more than logic. I understand things, but I can't empathize. So that's my approach to heroes, or to the people society might consider to be heroes. I try to keep them firmly on the ground so that they remain people, and people can be understood, either rationally, or (if you happen to have the wiring for it) emotionally. Understanding is the first step to forgiveness, and forgiveness is one of those vital life skills that isn't taught in school but is needed to survive, because not only are all people imperfect, but they are also flawed.

Mettmann was liberated from the National Socialist Dictatorship at the end of March 0000 by a vanguard of the US Ninth Army and eventually became a part of the British military administration under which the Northern Rhineland was redemocratised. The city is a Rhenish town in North Rhine-Westphalia, Federal Republic of Germany. It is the administrative centre of the District of Mettmann, Germany's most thickly populated rural region. Additionally Mettmann hosts also a vivid Brasilian community featuring in the German movie, Samba in Mettmann by the German and Italian film-maker pair Hape Kerkeling and Angelo Colagrossi. A city known for its historic myths and traditions, scenic beauty, luxurious hotels and cottages, Mettmann is one of the favorite holiday destinations for most of the vacation lovers.

It's your job as their trusted leader to make it easier for people to do their best work. Practice asking these three questions, and see how it improves your interactions this week. Effective leaders know there's much to be gained (and learned) from listening, but they don't always have the time to "go there." Three questions make it easier to build trust at work. What do they need? When meeting with someone, it's easy to fall back on traditional "negotiation skills" as you seek the end goal. On your way to the meeting, consider the other person's needs, and where he or she is coming from. This is a way to build rapport without really having to "do" anything. How can I notice them? Most of the people you interact with are starving for positive attention. Notice what people are doing and catch them doing something right. Acknowledge them with an example of how their work is helping the company. What "worry" is on its way? During an especially difficult part of a hike I was on last year (the Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim, 00-mile/ two-day Grand Canyon event), one hiker was struggling. He did not stop talking about hard it was. So I asked him to tell me what he could imagine his kids (ages 0 and 00) would be doing in a decade. He refocused his energy! For two hours, he thought and talked, hiking through the difficult uphill section of the climb.

According to Business Insider, "Most Americans spend more than seven hours a day staring at digital screens. But screens are changing our bodies and possibly our brains. This screen time often leads to blurred vision, eye strain, and long-term vision problems like nearsightedness." This is because screens emit blue light. When someone is exposed to it for long periods of time it can disrupts their circadian rhythms when they are trying to fall asleep.

In his first week on the job, Gov. Doug Ducey projected a sense of crisis wrapped in a can-do attitude for solving it. When he released his budget days later, it became clear that he thinks the serious way to balance Arizona's budget and boost our economy is by cutting spending. This, in a state where general-fund spending is about 0 percent lower than it was in 0000 despite the state growing by at least 000,000 people, or 0 percent, to 0.0 million in that time. What went largely unexamined as Ducey unveiled his plans was the fact that the budget crisis is a politically generated one. It was created by Republican Ducey's no-new-taxes pledge, a position he shared with Democratic challenger Fred DuVal. Ducey went further in his campaign, though, proposing reducing income taxes as close to zero as possible. The truth, apparently unspeakable in Phoenix, is that Arizona could raise revenue in a variety of ways, and in amounts that could cover obligations to education and other public services. Whether Arizona cuts a billion in spending - that's the scale of next year's projected shortfall - or raises revenue by that much, the effect on the economy is likely to be similar, Rex said. "The impact is slightly worse if you do a spending cut than if you do a revenue increase. Either way, it's not much of an impact," Rex said. Having won handily in November, though, Ducey's trying to put in place the program that he proposed in the campaign. That's fair. But of course it leaves Arizona's needs unmet until the hoped-for increase in economic growth leads to the prayed-for jump in tax revenue. The most prominent need, of course, being the schools, which a judge says have been shorted about $000 million per year. The theory is that cutting taxes and spending will improve the economy so much that it will bring in additional tax revenue. Sales of livestock and poultry feed, salts and vitamins for livestock or poultry consumption sold to people engaged in producing livestock, poultry or products. Revenue lost: $00 million. Sales of pipes or valves 0 inches in diameter or larger used to transport oil, natural gas, artificial gas, water or coal slurry. Revenue lost: $0 million. Retail sales to a manufacturer, modifier, assembler or repairer if the end product is sold to the U.S. government and retail sales to the U.S. government by a manufacturer, modifier, assembler or repairer and other retail sales made directly to the U.S. government. Revenue lost: $000 million. Sales of warranty or service contracts. Revenue lost: $00 million. That's about $000 million lost in one year right there, and there are dozens more exemptions. Some of them make sense - food for consumption at home is one of the biggest. But many make no particular sense except when you remember who has the money to hire lobbyists and fund campaigns to get the sales of their favored product exempted from taxation. But exemptions are just one area where there is room to raise revenue. Arizona's general-fund spending, as a percentage of state residents' income, is as low now as it has been in at least 00 years. This fiscal year, that figure is about 0.0 percent, the Joint Legislative Budget Council reported last year. That's down from about 0.0 percent at its highest point under Democratic Gov. Janet Napolitano in 0000 and down from a peak of 0.0 percent under Republican Gov. Fife Symington in 0000, the highest it's been since 0000 if not before. So our state is not spending much compared with what residents are making. That's in part because we don't pay much in income taxes. The highest rate in the state is 0.00 percent for those who make more than $000,000, and the lowest is 0.00 percent for those who make under $00,000. Two of our prosperous neighboring states have flat income-tax rates for everyone that are higher than our top rate: Colorado's rate is 0.00 percent, and Utah's rate is 0 percent. We could raise income tax rates in ways that keep Arizona's rates competitive but also raise a lot of money. This, of course, is not in the cards with Ducey newly in office with his anti-tax mandate. "He just ran and said he not only wasn't going to increase them (taxes); he's going to decrease them," noted Kevin McCarthy, president of the Arizona Tax Research Association. "I don't think the mood in his office or legislative leadership for that matter is going to be toward turning over rocks" looking for revenue sources. That's too bad, because the pain of cutting a billion in spending from an already tight budget is likely to be more severe and damaging than the mild discomfort of raising revenue responsibly.

For me, the new year started out with a full-blown miracle. I felt for a few weeks that I was supposed to pray for my roommate's mother. She has Alzheimer's, so that was my natural starting point when it came to praying for her. But when I prayed over the disease, God actually said to stop. I was missing something. She needed prayer, but not for the Alzheimer's. I didn't know where to go with that exactly, so I said a few vague prayers for her and then sort of stopped. A week or so later, we got a call from the nursing home where she lives, saying she had a discoloration on her foot and it was melanoma. Like any self-centered person, I blamed myself when I heard about this. "God, if I had prayed harder when you told me I should, I could have saved her from this." Again, God said stop. Because again, I had missed the point. God wanted me to pray hard now. Back then, when I first felt the need to pray, I only had half the story. And you know what? God planned it that way. Because a healing like that, removing a tumor and essentially healing cancer, required complete and total faith in my Savior. I needed to ask and truly believe beyond a shadow of doubt that He could and would answer my prayer. And He helped me get there by telling me to pray before I actually had to. Why? So that when the time came, He could tell me "I've got this. If I weren't going to answer your prayer, I wouldn't have told you to ask." He told me to ask at a time when I wasn't even sure what I was asking for...if He'd waited til the diagnosis came, I couldn't be sure that it was God telling me, or just me reacting to the bad news. The way He planned it though, I knew the call to prayer came from God Himself. God gave me a safeguard, and a proof that He would answer my prayer. So, I prayed. Though I was asking for a miracle, I prayed with more faith than I ever have. I didn't just want Him to, I knew that God would work a healing - because He'd told me ahead of time. Sure enough, when she had a follow-up appointment, the tumor had become nothing more than a blood blister. God promised a miracle, and then He delivered one. Needless to say, after the news of the healing, God was on my mind a lot. Two days later, I went on a shopping trip, just running normal errands for the household. I was walking into the store when I felt His presence. Before I could even think, the words were out of my mouth: "Hi Jesus! Thanks for coming shopping with me." Anybody passing by would've thought that I was talking to an imaginary friend. He wasn't there for any reason, He had nothing profound to tell me. He was just joining me for the sake of spending time with me. My heart had been focused on Him almost exclusively for two days, and so He came to hang out with me. With this happening, I started wondering what I'd done to deserve these blessings. Anybody who knows me knows that I'm not the most faithful Christian ever. I trust my God, but I have moments of doubt. I'm not the most submissive or obedient follower. Like I said earlier, I have a tendency not to act on what God tells me. I'm hesitant. So why bless me? Especially with blessings this big? Simple. It's not about me. It's not what I think or who I am. It's who God is. He promises us that He is there to provide for us, if we ask Him in faith. Those nagging doubts, those thoughts of "what if He doesn't answer?", "what if I'm wrong?", are what stand between us and God's little miracles blessing us every day. No problem here on Earth is bigger than our God who created it. In theory, maybe we all know that. But do we truly believe it, each and every time we come before God and pray? Logic says, and the world would have us believe, that miracles don't happen - only coincidences. If you know God, you know better than that. But the world has jussst enough pull with us to linger in our brains. Those lingering thoughts can be crippling to our relationship with Him, and we need to let go of them to pray in true faith. As my journey to being Rebekah takes off, God is calling me to be in this place of faith. He's calling me to shut those quiet, lingering doubts off, and submit them to Him - yup, I can even give Him my doubt and He can take care of that too! Because He's merciful, and knew I'd need help with this, He proved it first. I won't always be so lucky - I'll be called to trust Him when I have no tangible evidence that He wants to answer my prayer. I'll have to move on faith alone. But I will always have this testimony, this proof that God can do mighty and miraculous things when I believe Him for it and put all of my trust in Him. So I invite you to take this leap with me. On your toughest days, He is right by your side waiting for you to truly believe that He is bigger than your breakup, bigger than your stressful test, bigger than a fight with your boss. Whether He blesses you with a miracle or simply comforts you in a tough time, trust that He can get you through it, and He will. He'll even help you to trust Him. You just saw how He helped me!

Web Designer or Web Developer - is there a difference? You may hear the terms "web designer" or "web developer" and be a little confused. They're the same thing, aren't they? These terms are often used interchangeably, it's true. Companies will sometimes use both these terms when advertising the services they offer, as a way of "covering all their bases" However, a "web designer" and a "web developer" refer to two quite different aspects. They will each possess unique skill sets. While their roles may overlap in the development and construction of a website, their skills are employed in different areas during the website building process. A web developer, often called a programmer or a coder, builds a functioning website from the ground up. In actual fact, web development is the process through which any good website, mobile app or other similar web platform is created. A web developer writes the information, using HTML or other programming languages, which will enable the website to function correctly. He or she takes the concept of a website and turns it into a working site. Web developers will build very basic, static but functional, sites or more dynamic, interactive sites, utilising user interactivity. Elements such as links, buttons, content sliders and multi-functional images would all be included as part of a dynamic site. The web development languages are the platforms through which these specific instructions are communicated and subsequent actions are initiated. Before a web developer can proceed, he or she needs to know how it should all work. They need to have a good grasp of the vision the client has for the site. That's where a web designer comes in. A web designer, quite literally, designs the website. First, he or she will establish the objectives of the site; how the client wants it to work and what they want to achieve. The designer will then wireframe the website design. After that, a web designer finally moves into the design stage. A web designer and a web developer may work together at this point to build the different aspects of a working website. Web designers will consider several aspects or principles of design when planning a website. A website should look good but it must also function well, provide a positive user experience and meet the client's objectives. Layout - The website's physical layout is an important aspect for web designers to consider. Web designers will ensure an even combination of heavy and light elements in order to create a balanced layout. A good website will combine both to best effect. It will also employ a good balance of images and content. A website needs to give relevant information, but not so much that the user is bored. Likewise, the appropriate use of images can provide visual anchoring for accompanying informational text. Colour - A web designer will balance the use of colour, using either contrasting colour for bold effect or complementary colour. Colour may be used to emphasise or highlight certain areas of a website. Arrangement - When arranging the various elements of a website, consistency is a critical web design principle. The journey through the website must make sense and be logical for the user. A well thought out navigation menu, for example, will provide visitors with a smooth and streamlined website experience. Integration - Ensuring the various parts of a website are well integrated and unified is another important consideration. The human brain organises information in a visual way, by grouping different elements into categories. This is the basis of what is known as the Gestalt theory. Utilising the principles of the Gestalt theory when designing a website will make the difference between a straightforward and inviting website, or a confusing and complicated website. If you're looking for a new website or a re-design of your current site, it's important to consider the aspects of both web design and web development. A website should incorporate good design principles to provide for an enjoyable user experience. It should also utilise well thought-out programming language to ensure optimum functionality. Read more about the importance of a good web presence. Is it important to have a web presence? Any man and his dog can cobble together a basic website these days. It isn't difficult to write a couple of lines, find some images somewhere, put it together and go live. Voila, you have a web presence! Yes, you can congratulate yourself on your brand new website - but is it a good one? Unless you've done your research and put together a game plan, your little contribution to the world wide web is akin to a drop of water in the ocean. You'll be practically invisible if there's nothing particularly different about your site. Search engines won't even rank you if your images are awful and your content is lousy. Your site will be the proverbial needle in a haystack, so to speak, (which turns out to be notoriously difficult to find). Unless you've given extensive thought to its design and functionality, it will probably be difficult to navigate and your visitor won't stay long. What is SEO and how do I get it? You may have heard a lot of buzz about SEO content. But what exactly is it? And how important is it? Search Engine Optimised (SEO) content is information that is written in a specific way. The purpose is to ensure that the web page or pages the information is on ranks well in search results. The desired result is obviously to bring increased traffic to the site. Search engines take into account the way that internet users search for subject material. This includes the use of keywords and relevant content. Incomplete information or missing data results in a page being ranked lower by search engines. Less traffic as a result of less clicks presumably means less exposure and/or profitability. What's so amazing about Shakespeare? Okay, so this dude's pretty famous, he's earned a fairly decent rap when it comes to spinning an entertaining yarn, and he's certainly no "flash in the pan", "here today, gone tomorrow" writer. Proving the old adage that ‘the pen is mightier than the sword', Shakespeare's works (apparently some 00 plays and 000 sonnets) are still alive and doing quite well today. Meanwhile, the many feisty lords who were around at the time have been decaying for centuries in their tombs. This year marks the 000 year anniversary of Shakespeare's death, and literary buffs all over the world are taking the opportunity to celebrate his life and works. So what was so amazing about Shakespeare's works? Why is he widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language? And what did he get so right in writing his plays and sonnets that has guaranteed their enduring longevity and popular success? Nothing is more frustrating or hilarious, depending on your point of view, than terrible punctuation and grammar. I'm sure everyone else thought the attached caption was very funny - apart from Grandpa! While we're generally happy to let certain ‘rules' slide when we're texting or tweeting, it's really important to make sure we get it right when we're in a professional capacity. Poor grammar or punctuation can make it difficult for our audience to understand the information that's being given. Visually, the experience is clunky and jarring. The reader may need to go through the information several times to figure out what we're getting at. Incorrect or difficult phrasing can dramatically change the meaning of the text. And unfortunately, it can also give the impression that we don't actually know what we're talking about.

Gov. Ned Lamont promised Tuesday to reduce borrowing by the state of Connecticut by more than $000 million annually, committing to a "debt diet" before a gathering of business leaders in Southbury. The move, if successful, would be a dramatic change after years of borrowing for state-funded projects in all corners of the state, from Hartford to rural school districts to highways. In the future, the state will limit its borrowing to "critical needs" that are "within the state's ability to pay," Lamont said. Lamont said he would scale back the annual bond authorization to less than $0 billion - a reduction of 00 percent. During eight years under Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, the state averaged approximately $0.00 billion worth of general bond authorizations per year. While fiscal conservatives have been calling for reduced bonding for years, other legislators often look for state bond money to fund projects in their districts, particularly in election years. Lamont said he would hold the line on bonding even in the second year of the two-year budget, an election year for the entire legislature. Construction and renovations of public schools - traditionally a large part of the annual bond package - will continue, "but we're going to be selective,'' Lamont said. If wealthy communities want to construct a small school in their town, they can still do that - but they should not be relying on state funds, Lamont said. Preferences would be given to larger, regional schools, which would provide more incentive for cost-saving consolidations, he said. Rather than forcing schools to consolidate, which has been recommended by some legislators, Lamont is more interested in offering incentives regarding state funding. In recent years, two Republican legislators on the 00-member State Bond Commission argued repeatedly during meetings that the state was spending too much money on construction projects, saying the fiscal largess was unsustainable. But they were routinely outvoted, 0-0, by Malloy and seven other Democrats on the commission. The governor controls the commission's agenda and has the ultimate authority to decide which projects will receive a vote. Now, Lamont can control bonding by simply refusing to place items on the agenda or by holding fewer meetings. He has already canceled the bond meetings for January and February. Kevin Maloney, the chief spokesman for the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities, said cities and towns rely on bonding for school construction, clean water funds and repairs to local infrastructure. "Any reduction in bond funding for towns cannot be an isolated, piecemeal shift of revenue needs onto the property tax,'' Maloney said. "Any bonding diet must be accompanied by more holistic state-local tax reform'' to help towns. State Rep. Arthur O'Neill, the longest-serving Republican in the House, hailed the move, saying bonding has spun out of control in recent years. O'Neill particularly criticized the use of bond funds to provide incentives to corporations to move to Connecticut and retain jobs. He cited the approval in 0000 of $00 million in grants and loans for Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund. Senate Republican leader Len Fasano, who tangled with Malloy but has had a more cordial relationship with Lamont, said the debt diet is "long overdue'' and a marked change from the Malloy years. State bond funding has played a key role in helping to finance redevelopment projects in downtown Hartford administered by the Capital Region Development Authority. CRDA was created by Malloy, an advocate of investing in Hartford, particularly the downtown area. Since 0000, downtown Hartford has added nearly 000 rentals in CRDA projects, with another 000 in progress and 000 more than are on the drawing board, for a total of about 0,000. New housing downtown has been pushed as a cornerstone of the city's revitalization, attracting more people to live downtown moving Hartford closer to a 00/0 city. As of June, CRDA had invested $00 million in loans and equity investments in downtown housing projects totaling about $000 million. Bond funding also has helped finance projects in Hartford neighborhoods, including the renovation of the M. Swift & Sons factory north of downtown. CRDA has two Hartford projects approved for bond funding - apartments at the Colt factory complex and the Parkville Market - that could get delayed should the bond commission shift its priorities and not authorize funding. Courant staff writer Kenneth Gosselin contributed to this report.

Any other busy folks out there just beginning to panic that they don't have a Christmas neighbor gift ready yet? Wait - no? You are all super prepared and this post is coming a few weeks too late? As for me - I'll be printing these off in bulk and arranging my family in assembly line style - with a week 'till Christmas to spare! My husband and I usually pride ourselves in making lovely homemade neighbor gifts, like HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE. However, some years are just busier than others, and I knew it had to be a store bought gift this year. Or better yet - an online bought gift! I've seen many versions of the "popcorn and redbox movie" night neighbor gift, and always felt it was such a practical and useful gift - which I'm hoping everyone will be happy to receive. I decided all the free printables out there were a bit too colorful for me (I know - I'm boring), so I came up with my own saying and black and white version. And for all you other color-o-phobic folks out there - I've got the FREE printable for you as well. I love how I can use ribbon or string to add the bits of color of my choosing, and coordinate with the color of the popcorn bag. Click on the link below this image. It prints on a standard 0.0 x 00 inch US paper. Print on card-stock for a sturdier card. Each printable comes with 0 tags to a page. Each tag measures about 0 x 0.0 inches, when trimmed with a 0/0 inch white space border. *This is for personal use only, and not to be sold or distributed in any way (except as gifts to your neighbors, of course). Go to redbox.com and scroll down to the very bottom and click "Redbox Gifts". There you will see the option to buy promo codes. We bought ours in the bundle we needed and emailed all the codes to ourselves, then wrote them individually on each tag. Hope this will help you out this year - or next! Such a great idea!! Merry Christmas! Lifesaver! Thank you and Merry Christmas! WOW! I totally wish I would have seen this a few days back (but totally saving it for next year)! What a great idea! This is perfect! I've been looking for some that are in black and white so as not to use up too much color ink! (ink is so expensive) Thank you!

Did you know that Fathers Day is just around the corner?? No?? Dad hasn't mentioned it?? well get ready folks its happening. There always seems to be so much hype about mothers day (don't get me wrong I think it is well deserved!) but Sunday June 00 is when we will all get to celebrate the dad's in our world. The dad's (new and old), fathers in law, uncles, best friends dads and neighborhood dads. I hope you are all fortunate enough to have lots of wonderful men to celebrate. But when it comes to celebrating dads its not quite the same as moms - actually its not the same at all. Instead of flowers, chocolates, spa days etc. Get the dad in your life something they will love and appreciate..... meat - Bison meat specifically! If you are local to Big Rock Bison you can always pick up a gift certificate for them to come and visit the "Silo Store" to pick out some steaks or order some BUFF sticks at www.buff.ca and enter #dadsrock for 00% off your order. And free shipping on orders over $000.00!! Don't forget awesome dad's have awesome kids!! - that's you!! Ok so what happens if your dad is a vegetarian, vegan or on some other wild diet that he cant have meat??. My suggestion is to just order some BUFF for yourself then. Its a win/win!!

BRIDGEPORT, CT - Mayor Joe Ganim and the City of Bridgeport today launched Public Safety Software "NexGen" to ensure proper information sharing from dispatch to all first responder agencies that will allow situational awareness that will improve efficiency, effectiveness and public safety. The new strategy will enable a seamless collaboration between the City's Emergency Communications Center (000), the First Responder agencies and our Emergency Operations with providing cutting edge technologies of NexGen and PowerPhone applications to improve emergency response capabilities and integrated information sharing amongst all partnering agencies with the ease of a digital tablet at their vehicle console and display at first responder headquarters. Before NexGen, a Police dispatcher would type notes about a call in their own individual system. But only the responding Police officer would have access to the notes; the responding Fire unit did not. The NexGen system shows all responders any notes and updates regardless of the agency. Both companies are locally-based in Connecticut. The NexGen Company operates out of East Haven and PowerPhone is a Madison-based company.

Today was the garage sale day I look forward to most each year. Not only for the sheer number of participants, but for the Kubasa with sauteed onions & Sauerkraut. This years buy of the day goes to a box of what at first appeared as some GW LOTR figures. With a War Mumak right on top it was a no brainer. I saw the price on the lid of the box to read $0. At first I thought it meant whatever was in the box was $0.00 per item. Was I surprised at the answer! So looking in the box I saw the War Mumak, a box of Easterlings, a box of 00K Space Marines & what appeared to be some plastic 0/00nd scale Greek Infantry. Fair enough. I snagged the box and a couple other things from this vendor. I then had to haul it back to where I parked the car to offload it. The box of Chaos Marines were merely mostly empty sprues, but there were some bits and a full sprue of Chaos appendages, always good for modding possessed in Mordheim. Hey now! Whats this I see under those tatty books? Here we have the full Monty. Everything that was in that $0.00 box. LOTR Weapons & Warfare - Rough shape, but this will be a good copy to use as my painting guide. White Dwarf WD000 - Also in pretty rough shape. LOTR Return of the King - pretty sure this is the book that came with the boxset. Plastic bubble containing metal Warg Riders, Riders of Rohan, Easterlings & Mordor Troll. Box of Chaos Space Marines - well their bits anyway. Large ziplock bag of mixed LOTR miniatures, and chaos space marines. 0/00nd Greek Infantry Hoplites - not sure at this point if its complete. So apart from a couple other gaming related items I purchased, this was by far the best haul of the day! It also ends the townwide garage sale season for this year. Well here we are, my first post. For many years, like so many other gamers, I have sought the opportunity to build the "Ultimate" Gaming space. A place where a game could remain on the table to conclude at another time, a place where friends could gather (road trip), converse and battle over a beer and bad dice roll. In a nut-shell, "My Place" Well that dream is becoming a reality. Though its taken over a year ( lots of breaks) the basement is being transformed. Attempting to do most of the work myself and with the overwhelming assistance of my co-worker Terry, we are past the hurdle and see the end in sight. Of course all of this would not be possible if it wasn't for the support of my lovely wife. As can be seen, this portion of the basement has the ceiling and floor completed. Now its just a matter of time to sort thru all this clutter of shelves and other furnishings to make sense of it all....yes there is a master plan. As to this half of the basement. Well its just a matter of time. This is the area the game table will be located. I will try to remember to take more photos as the progression continues and post them as I can.

I have been trying to find somewhere to dump my code both old & new. The problem was that most of it was not worthy of a source forge page or anything like that so i just kinda gave up on it. A week or so had to build a little CMS for a company so i stripped it back once it was finished & made it my own. I now have somewhere that i can easily just make a folder on the server & FTP dump all the files up & the server handles the rest. A few people gave me a few ideas on how to do it with htaccess but im on shared hosting so that wasnt possible.

Start with a white base, and then use a medium length striper brush to add dashes of color spiraling out from the center of your nail. I began with my yellow shade, and then continued to build out the colors on either side of it (sticking with rainbow order, of course!). Don't forget a layer of topcoat to smooth out and protect your design. This look is pretty simple to achieve, and the less precise you are, the more tie dyed it will look! So just have fun with it!

We arrived Sunday 0/00 at 00h00 in the airport of Dusseldorf. We want to thank you for the excellent organisation of our trip and the service. We had very good and friendly guides. You can thank them for their professional explanation and their helpfulness. The trip was intensive: each day, we had to get up very early in the morning and we traveled a long distance. Cycling in Mai Chau was very attractive. We preferred more the biking tours than visiting the pottery villages. The Killing Fields near Phnom Penh must be programmed! We visited them, with a lot of thanks to our guide Sa Em and his driver. We have enjoyed the trip during those 00 days. We are pleased to have become acquainted with the history, culture and nature of Vietnam and Cambodia.

High-Performance Computing (HPC) is essential in meeting the demand for increased processing power for future research and development in many domains, such as aircraft and automotive design or multimedia. The goal of the ITEA project H0H (Hybrid for HPC) was to provide a highly efficient, hybrid programming environment for heterogeneous computing clusters to enable easier development of HPC applications and optimise application performance. The project also aimed at providing a new infrastructure for HPC cloud computing and a new cooling technology to reduce energy needed to operate the HPC system. The H0H project assembled a consortium of Supercomputing Centres and HPC Research Labs, a European HPC manufacturer, HPC software tools editors and a range of HPC users to validate the proposed technology in real applications from various domains. Key to the technological progress achieved were the extensive collaboration and workshops in which the partners engaged to develop and test the various technologies, customisation and optimisation options, and ultimately produce significant innovations to all the H0H technology components. Support was improved for heterogeneous architectures (GPU / Xeon Phi) along with portability for the various types of architectures. New programming approaches (e.g. OpenACC, OpenMP 0.0 tasks, PGAS), faster ITEA Success Story development phases for applications developers and better use of application resources for an energy-efficiency objective were released or improved along with a new promising cooling technology for future extreme computing needs. If the proof of the pudding is measured in the eating, then the recipe developed by the H0H project has resulted in a range of technological outcomes whose benefits will be felt from research to industry and, as a consequence, by society in general. The H0H project made important contributions to the Bull Exascale Program, which aims to design and develop the next generation of supercomputers that will contribute to producing world-class solutions for both research and industrial purposes. H0H contributions were packaged within the Bullx Super Computer Suites 0 & 0. In 0000, Bull launched Sequana, an open range of supercomputers that is ready to support future Exascale technologies, which will make it possible to process a billion billion operations per second. Bull/ATOS cooperated with EADS Astrium in a new advanced cooling design solution based on diphasic thermal exchangers and saw 0.000K/W achieved on a target of 0.00K/W against a State-of-the-Art of 0.00K/W. Bull benefited from these H0H developments as the new cooling technologies lead to new cooling improvements in the Sequana commercial range, currently being sold as Bull Sequana X offer, in which the X0000 blades integrate the latest Intel's Xeon Phi technologies. The research and development emanating from such projects have attracted customers through the years and gained new entrants. CEA, CINES, SurfSARA, STFC, ZIH-TUD are among the major customers, accounting for several million euros. The H0H project has left its mark in the European HPC activities not only on the business side but also on the technological and community side. During the project, H0H project partner RECOM achieved performance improvements of its 0D combustion simulation software, enabling the company to benefit from extremely fast software that can perform a large number of simulations to parametrise new models and verify accuracy. RECOM reduced the simulation time for furnace optimisation from 00 to 0.0 hours, a big achievement as modelling and repeated simulations allow the best values to be found to optimise production and prevent slag growth. This is important because slag growth can cause an unexpected outage of the furnace, which will require several weeks for repair and can easily lead to more than €0 m of loss of earnings with respect to the electricity that cannot be produced but has already been sold by the energy companies. With a major shift taking place in Europe, shortly after the H0H project, from coal-based to renewable power generation, the results of the H0H project have enabled RECOM to make the necessary transition from traditional contracts in the coal-based power generation sector towards other industrial sectors within less than two years, allowing the company to recover more than 00% of lost turnover and stay in business. The H0H project has enabled Efield to drastically improve the performance of its electromagnetic solvers to successfully address the industry's evolution towards higher operating frequencies, complex materials and increased density of ICT equipment. Being able to handle larger complexity (0 to 00 million of unknowns), has allowed cars and planes to be more efficient and safer. The result of the performance improvements was (and still is) a highly competitive software package for electromagnetic analysis in the wireless communication and defence industry. In the last year of the project, a record contract was closed with a major Asian service provider for defence industry resulting in a 00% increase in revenue. Efield is now part of a larger group, ESI Group, leader in software simulations tools. For Dassault's Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, the D&C (Divide & Conquer) work with proto-applications, started in H0H, was confirmed and led to improvements in Dassault's software, both in terms of scalability (almost perfect at x 00 cores) and overheads in memory and storage (same performance with 00 times less Message Passing Interface (MPI) blocks). For Dassault's Computational Electromagnetic (CEM) software, capitalising on notions like data locality and asynchronicity developed during H0H + Perfcloud extension, a novel asynchronous message-passing scheme was implemented which lead to a 00% - 00 % improvement of the MPI communications. Based on H0H, CEA improved its CEA Computing Complex infrastructures in terms of computational power and energy efficiency. One of the CEA laboratories, CEA-LIST, also signed a commercial contract with the "Gendarmerie Nationale" for its image-based stolen object retrieval. The contract is still ongoing in 0000 evolving to other types of recognition features. The H0H results have enabled the German SME INTES to reduce the simulation time from 0 days to 0 hours, for the analysis simulations of noise, vibration and harshness of vehicle bodies. Thanks to the valorisation of its work and involvement in the H0H project, partner Jülich Supercomputing Centre got the opportunity to work in a Siemens-funded collaboration (0000- 0000) together with the Corporate Technology Multicore Expert Center of Siemens AG on runtime analysis of parallel applications for industrial software development. On the basis of H0H, Scilab Enterprises developed and released two major improvements in the use of HPC with Scilab, its Open Source software for numerical computation. During the H0H project, Scilab Enterprises worked closely with industrial partners to share expertise in the use of their products, to provide updates or new implementation for functions required by domain-specific applications, resulting in improvements for industry. Scilab Enterprises has also been acquired by ESI Group. Several H0H improvements have also been integrated in open source code releases (SLURM, MAQAO, FoREST, UtoPEAK) like the MAQAO (Modular Assembly Quality Analyser and Optimiser) performance evaluation framework developed by the University of Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines (UVSQ). This was enhanced by Xeon Phi support, which is a major advancement in performance and compatibility designed for highly-parallel workloads. MAQAO is being exploited by Bull, CEA, Dassault Aviation and Intel. With MAQAO, partners were able to monitor the performance of their applications, detect hotspots and have recommendations, enabling them to globally improve the performance of their applications running on heterogeneous infrastructures. As a concrete example, Dassault was able to improve the data locality in their DEFMESH use case and got a 0x speedup for matrix assembly (on Intel Xeon Phi KNC, 0000). Improvements made in FoREST and UtoPeak resulted in an average 00% gain in energy efficiency at less than 0% loss in performance. H0H has had a significant impact on the HPC market by being state-of-the-art, closing the gap from the simulated to the real world and making HPC technologies more accessible.

This course was organised by the the Wrexham and Maelor Branch of the North Wales Association of Church Bell Ringers. There were 00 attendees, 00 from the branch, 0 from the Gwynedd Branch and one from outside the Association. The Course leader was Graham Nabb. For those who have been bell ringing from an early the age and are now a little older., it's very evident that Chinese Whispers have crept in with regards to how bell ringing has been taught; "This is how I was taught (or I think it was taught) so here you go". As a result, poor bell handling techniques have been/are being passed on. The course explains a framework to ensure that new bell ringers are taught in a manner that ensures a consistent approach. I think it's fair to say that the fifteen ringers from the North Wales Association of Church Bell Ringers who attended the course all gained from the course. Attendees included the Association's Ringing Master, the Deputy Ringing Master of the Wrexham Branch, tower captains and other ringers who want to improve the quality of full circle ringing. The structure of the course was excellent and was an appropriate blend of theory and practical sessions. The sessions covered how to teach a skilled activity (comparing what we do to other physical hobbies), how to teach bell ringing from day one (getting the new bell ringer comfortable with taming a bit of metal the weight of a car with floppy piece of rope whilst using appropriate terminology), and how to correct poor handling (useful for correcting the bell handling of those who did peals with Fabian Stedman). The ITTS programme is not an ‘attend a course and get a certificate' course (in fact you don't even get an attendance certificate, as you normally get to prove you've been on a course of learning). As a teacher you will need to demonstrate that you can teach in accordance with the ART programme. Teachers will be supported by a mentor and your learning assessed by a moderating mentor. The programme should ensure that people new to bell ringing get a consistent learning experience; hoping that they will pass on their good experience to others, so slowly increasing the numbers and competence of bell ringers. Graham Nabb delivered an excellent course and was able to relate to experiences those on the course had encountered. Having heard of practices of teachers tying learners' hands together, hopefully we can eradicate these methods (especially thinking about safeguarding, which Graham covered). The ITTS Module 0 course is a must for anyone who has a passion for ensuring the future of bell ringing. Considering circa £000 was paid to ART only time will tell if this was money well spent. In three years' time it will be interesting to see how many teachers follow through the accreditation programme; and how many more members the Association will have.

Dhoni and Dinesh Karthik were wrongly adjudged LBW by the on-field umpires. MS Dhoni's 000th ODI as a captain ended in a thrilling tie against Afghanistan in the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup 0000 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday (September 00). Apart from the fierce contest between bat and ball, the match also witnessed some umpiring blunders. Dhoni and Dinesh Karthik were wrongly adjudged LBW by the on-field umpires - Gregory Brathwaite and Anisur Rahaman. Dhoni, who played the leadership role in Rohit Sharma's absence, was dismissed by part-time off-spinner Javed Ahmadi and the delivery seemed to have gone over stumps. Moreover, Karthik's dismissal of Mohammed Nabi was a bigger blunder as the ball missed the leg stump by a couple of feet. Speaking at the post-match presentation ceremony, Dhoni took a subtle dig at umpiring errors, saying: "There were a couple of run-outs, and a few things we can't talk about because I don't want to get fined for it." Any public criticism of umpiring usually results in sanctions from the ICC and Dhoni chose his words wisely. The veteran wicketkeeper, however, was in full of praise for the Afghan boys. "Their (Afghanistan's) cricket has improved a lot. The way they have continued from the start of the Asia Cup, it is commendable and we have enjoyed their cricket. It is one country that has risen through the ranks very well," Dhoni said. "They batted extremely well too. The wicket slowed down later, but they bowled extremely well throughout the game and their fielding was tight too," he continued. India made as many as five changes to their side. KL Rahul, Manish Pandey, Siddarth Kaul, Deepak Chahar and Khaleel Ahmed were drafted into the playing XI in place of Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yuzvendra Chahal. "I wouldn't say we went wrong in the chase. To start off, it was like a handicap in golf. We didn't go with a full-strength side. Not enough spinners on this wicket. The first over that a fast bowler bowls, they need to extract swing. We didn't hit the back of a length area, and we gave away too much initially with the ball," Dhoni concluded.

The Americas (sometimes referred to as America) is the area including the two continents located between the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, namely North America and South America. The term also usually includes the islands in and around the Caribbean Sea. The isthmus of Central America is usually considered geographically part of North America. The Americas are often also described collectively as the Western Hemisphere or the New World. Most Spanish language references consider there to be no separation between North America and South America but only one continent America. However, many Spanish speakers consider America del norte and America del sur to be separate continents. The use of America to refer to the New World as a whole is also sometimes used in English, such as in the common phrase "Columbus discovered America". People who live in the Americas are sometimes referred to as being American, although in the English-speaking world the word "American" is more commonly used to refer only to a citizen of the United States of America. See naming of America for a discussion of how the Americas were named.

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is fascinating to the clinician, but a pure misery for the one who has it and those who love the one who has it. BPD affects 00% more people than Alzheimer's disease and nearly as many as schizophrenia and bipolar combined (0.00%). My personal experience with BPD is limited. I've had a couple of clients who had it, and after two or three sessions I sent them both to a specialist in the disorder. Group therapy is very important and helpful, because it gives the client the opportunity to interact with people in a controlled atmosphere while they learn skills that will help them function normally. If you or someone you love has BPD, you know that there's a lot of drama. It can wear you out and shut you down. Borderlines crave close relationships, yet they continually destroy those relationships with their endless demands for complete closeness. They often feel that others dislike them, are keeping secrets from them, or have abandoned them. Romantic relationship often go sour because the Borderline person is so possessive and jealous of the object of her affection. While BPD can't be permanently cured, it CAN be treated and kept in check with good therapy and family support. The person's need for constant reassurance is wearying for the family. Boundaries are important in a relationship, lines that cannot be crossed without serious consequences. There's lots of good information out there in cyberspace. As I've scanned through many different articles, I've found almost everything to be accurate. Of course, I use trustworthy sources like the National Insititue for Mental Health (NIMH) when I go looking for information. Check your sources carefully. Not everyone who writes about these things has the training, authority, and experience to do so.

This summer I worked as an intern for 0 weeks at Think Outside. I was hired as an electrical engineer and worked closely with Head of Research in the research department with prototyping of our product, but also worked with the development team. I worked on developing and testing of the Dingo prototype, especially on the software and modelling side of the development and testing. My time as an intern was very valuable and I learned a lot of how it is to be an engineer and also how to run a successful startup business. I was well integrated in the team and was involved in team events and team meetings. We had a team meeting event in Oslo, where I took part in technical meetings both internal and with external partners. I was also part of the events in StartupLab in Oslo, both pitching event and social parties. Working towards a product meant for the outdoors is a refreshing experience and together with the wonderful ski-loving team of Think Outside I had a blast!

Have you ever been ¾ of the way into a project, only for it to unexpectedly halt because others have different ideas or are not on the same page? We have all been there, and while this scenario can be very frustrating, must times, it simply suggests a one-time misunderstanding. But what if this happens regularly? Then that one-time misunderstanding turns into a communication gap, and that gap requires more than just a simple "do better next time" approach. Instead, it requires everyone involved to assess the problem, identify solutions, and take deliberate efforts to change the way you communicate. All relationships require intentional communication, whether you're communicating with your life partner, professional colleague, or even your mother. In communication, much like many other issues, our failures are often our best teachers. When we find ourselves in undesirable situations, we often wish we had a re-do button. But when you cannot hit re-do, how do you identify the problem, so that next time your outcome will be different? Some of the biggest misunderstandings are created simply because we make assumptions. The first thing to acknowledge is that we make assumptions ALL THE TIME. Any time we have a pre-conceived notion about how we think things should be, we are making an assumption. Sometimes the assumptions we make are relatively harmless (say, when we assume a friend is merely busy when she does not return a phone call). But what if you assume a friend is mad at you and intentionally avoiding you? That assumption can result in very different reactions and expectations. Solution: Challenge and ask questions. One of the easiest ways to park your assumptions at the door is to ask questions. The next time you talk to your friend, ask if she received your message -- and why she didn't call back. You might get a very reasonable answer. Applying filters is akin to making assumptions. Assumption-making is our cognitive process of making mental notes on the situation at hand. When we act out our assumptions, we are applying filters to how we perceive, sort, and share that information. Take, for example, a presentation at your staff meeting that reflects your latest activities: you pre-select what you think is important to share. Afterwards, you are surprised that no one really knows what you are working on. Solution: Share details. Now, let's take the previous example and remove the assumptions and filters. Instead of only reporting your activities, you also share context about the projects, why the information is important, and how it will help fulfill the bigger picture. In this discussion, you share your insights and engage other staff members to share their insights as well. This helps give context to information you share with others, so they can fully understand you and your work. 0. Problem: Protecting information with pride. Intellectual property, or specialized knowledge and skills, sets us apart from others. But have you ever heard the saying, "If you are hit by a bus, we need to know how to do X, Y, and Z"? As much as we like to think we can't be replaced, we actually can be. At any given moment, we may no longer be able to perform our jobs. And while that sounds terrible, wouldn't it be even worse if we walked away and no one knew how to finish what we started? Solution: Include others. In many small nonprofit offices, there is only one person in a department or program -- which means that we, as nonprofit professionals, are often the only person who knows how to do XYZ. Thankfully, many workplaces are starting to cross-train their employees. This helps eliminate the communication barriers that exist when you work solo. Even if your workplace isn't cross-training, by challenging assumptions, sharing information, and including others in your-day-to-day activities, you will start to see your relationships positively transform with more honest and open communication. Are there other common problems that result in poor or unclear communication? What have been some of your communication gaps, and how have you resolved them?

Rubio and Trump reengage, Kasich bucks Romney, and Megyn Kelly and Trump make nice. 0. Rubio latches onto Trump's new squishiness. In their first volley, Rubio attacked Trump's conservative credentials, saying that primaries and caucuses show that "two-thirds" of Republican voters aren't comfortable with him. "The reason why is because we are not going to turn over the conservative movement or the party of Lincoln or Reagan, for example, to someone whose positions are not conservative," the Florida senator said of Trump, the current national poll-leader. "To someone who last week defended Planned Parenthood for 00 seconds on a debate stage. To someone...who thinks the nuclear triad is a rock band from the 0000s." Rubio and Cruz both took Trump to task for reportedly showing flexibility in his supposedly hardline immigration position, asking him to tell The New York Times to release the tapes from an off-the-record discussion. Trump refused. 0. Thanks but no thanks, Mitt. Asked to respond to Mitt Romney's strategy to prevent Donald Trump from getting the nomination -- in part by urging Republicans to back Rubio in Florida and Kasich in Ohio -- Kasich shrugged off the former GOP nominee. "Mitt Romney's a great guy but he doesn't determine my strategy," Kasich said. He said the race had now entered "March Madness" and that he would perform better when he gets to "my turf." Trump and Rubio wasted little time reengaging their nasty personal digs at each other, and at one point Rubio ripped Trump for manufacturing his clothing line overseas -- and criticized Trump for accepting a loan from his father. "This little guy has lied so much about my record," he said. After a brawl, Trump said he would start migrating his clothing line operations stateside. But he suggested that trade policies have discouraged clothing manufacturing in the United States. Later, Wallace told Trump he had a policy question. "Let's see if he answers it," Rubio interjected. 0. "Nice to be with you, Megyn" It was a long-awaited meeting. Moderator Megyn Kelly, who drew Trump's fury with tough questioning in his first debate appearance in August, looked him in the eye -- and said "Hi." "Nice to be with you Megyn," he said, after a pregnant pause. "Good to have you here" she said, smiling. "I guarantee you there's no problem," he said. The sniping wasn't just exclusive to Trump and Rubio. Cruz implied that Trump was "misleading the American people" about his immigration views because he refuses to release the tape of an off-the-record conversation with The New York Times in which he discussed negotiating over his hardline position. "If you didn't tell them that, the tapes will prove you innocent," Cruz said. Trump responded, "You're the lying guy up here" and the two spoke over each other repeatedly. "I've given my answer, lyin' Ted," Trump concluded. Fox played a series of videos showing Trump changing his mind on crucial issues -- the decision to go to war in Afghanistan, whether the country should bring in Syrian refugees and whether George Bush lied about weapons of Mass destruction in Iraq. "There are many other examples," Kelly said. Trump, after defending his switches, argued that leaders should be flexible. "I have a very strong core," he said. "I've never seen a successful person who wasn' t flexible." One of the fiercest exchanges of the entire night occurred between Trump and Kelly. After addressing Trump University -- the school Trump founded that has been sued by former students as a scam -- Kelly was ready with an on-the-spot fact-check. She noted that "so-called little guys" said they had been "fleeced" by Trump. "The class has been certified and in that case you counter-sued the lead plaintiff," she said. Trump has defended his company by arguing that its former students have largely viewed it favorably and a positive rating from the Better Business Bureau. But again, Kelly rebutted him, noting that the BBB had given it a D- rating, and she read from an appeal court decision that compared Trump University students to "Madoff victims." Moderators teed up a softball for Rubio: Explain why Trump is unprepared to be commander in chief. And Rubio delivered a harsh assessment of Trump's foreign policy readiness. "I will prove to be a great leader," he added. Rubio retorted, "He was pressed on a policy issue ... his reaction was just to attack somebody else with a name." Despite a growing movement to isolate Trump by establishment Republicans, all four Republican nominees vowed to support the GOP presidential nominee no matter who wins the primary. "I'll support Donald if he's the nominee," Rubio said, arguing that he's preferable to Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. "Yes. Because I gave my word that I would," Cruz said. Kasich agreed that he would, but added "Sometimes he makes it a little bit hard." Trump feigned surprise when asked if he would support the GOP nominee if it isn't him. "Even if it's not me?" he wondered aloud. After noting he had brought many new people into the party, he said, "The answer is, yes I will. Discussing foreign policy, Kasich insisted that he's the best choice to lead the nation because he was "there when Ronald Reagan rebuilt the military." "I was there when Ronald Reagan rebuilt the economy," he continued. "I knew Ronald Reagan."

Foxtel has unveiled a new ultra-high-definition set-top box in its bid to retain and attract subscribers as investors fret about the impact on News Corp's earnings from heavier investment in its pay TV business as rival streaming services gain ground and sports rights costs increase. The fourth generation iQ0 set-top box unveiled on Tuesday is targeted at sports and entertainment lovers and underlines last week's warning from News Corp chief financial officer Susan Panuccio that Foxtel would require "short term reinvestment", sparking a fall of up to 00 per cent in the media giant's shares in New York trading on Friday. But Foxtel chief executive Patrick Delany argues a growing trend towards households setting up home theatres, thanks to falling television prices, makes the launch of an ultra-high-definition, 0K resolution-enabled set-top box a natural evolution for the pay TV business. The iQ0, which will enable viewers to watch its new 0K channel to be launched in October in time for the beginning of its cricket coverage, will see its first exclusive match, a one-day game between Australia and South Africa, kick off on November 0. "We're seeing a massive trend towards bigger TVs," Mr Delany told The Australian Financial Review, noting forecasts which predict 00 per cent of televisions sold next year will be 0K-enabled and the majority will be over 00 inches in size. "It's because the price has come down so much. I think Australians and the world are gravitating towards setting up their own home theatre and you've just got to buy a big screen and a sound bar. It's not really the domain of the rich." Foxtel, which is 00 per cent owned by News Corp and 00 per cent owned by Telstra, will launch a 0K channel in October, which will include live sport, documentaries and concerts. Over the next year will be make more of its content available in 0K. Foxtel will select limited content to put on the new 0K channel, with a focus on the live sports rights it owns, such as the cricket, NRL, AFL, rugby union and A-League. "It's limited by the number of 0K trucks and cameras there are for sport. Things like the Tests and one-day matches where everything is one place are easy to do," Mr Delany said. "When you get to home-and-away sport, like the Big Bash League, the AFL, and NRL, the trucks have to get dispersed around the country, so it's a lot harder to do. But, we will build up, like we did with HD, we started with a baseline then we built it." The iQ0 will integrate traditional TV, live streaming, catch-up and on-demand content. It's predecessor, the iQ0, had a series of well-documented glitches and bugs. However, Mr Delany said a lot of work had gone into the iQ0 and he predicted "flawless execution". "The iQ0 is based on a completely new chip set and has five times more grunt than the iQ0. It can process code much better, and graphics, recommendations very, very quickly. It's got a bunch of tricks built into it, including 0K," Mr Delany said. "It is based on the same format and code as the iQ0, so that means we will continue to improve the iQ0 and iQ0 interfaces, they'll look the same, it's just the 0 is the next progression, just like when the new iPhone comes out. It's a bit quicker and it's got a better camera, that sort of stuff. It will be our standard box going forward." Foxtel is also expected to launch a standalone sports streaming service in the second quarter, revealed by the Financial Review in March, and confirmed by News Corporation chief executive Robert Thomson at the company's financial results last week. The pay TV business hopes to bring in a new set of customers, who had previously shunned Foxtel due to the price, and fend off streaming challengers such as Netflix and Stan, which is 00-00-owned by Nine Entertainment and Fairfax Media. Foxtel will position its set-top service as its premium offer, hoping that a range of new streaming services will capture a new segment of the market and push it past the 00 per cent penetration of Australian households mark it has been stuck around for some time. "The plan is a very different service for a very different segment. You'll see Foxtel evolve as well though. Set-top boxes are one way we'll deliver all of our content, you'll see a massive shift by Foxtel into streaming and new services that showcase streaming," Mr Delany said. "In our streaming businesses themselves, they'll present content differently to the way Foxtel does." Mr Delany said Foxtel has range of announcements and product launches planned for the near future. "We've got a lot of things planned. Opening the platform is one of those things people can speculate about but is a natural progression. The box is smart enough to do all this stuff, the NBN is making it easier to do it. So it, together with a bunch of stuff, is where we're planning to go. 0K is one of quite a few things we're doing."

With all this (wonderful) focus on making others feel special, how about some self-love this Valentine's Day? In fact, why don't we make that more of a priority year-round? The moments I've scheduled "just for me" have made me a better mom, and a better person. Those moments of reflection, having some time to just "be" without obsessing over to-do's and the craziness of life, are golden! (I will admit to occasionally using "me time" to get caught up on lists or research about something related to parenting, but it makes me happy to spend "me time" doing that.) I also believe we're setting a good example to our children by taking care of ourselves. Those little sponges take in more than we likely realize! I get that Self-Love looks different for everyone, but for me it's going to a hot yoga class, getting a massage, or taking a nice long bubble bath while reading a book (or, let's be honest, scrolling through my phone). Sometimes it's with tea, sometimes it's with wine! I make sure to enter this time into my calendar just like an appointment, and stick to it. Here are some of the special things that help to make my Self-Love time magical! Bath Tray: I'd been searching for years for the perfect tray for our tub. Somehow, my dad knew (I may have mentioned something), and made this one for me for Christmas! My dad is a very talented stained glass and woodwork artist. He does custom work, so if you would like to order one, message me and I'll put you in touch! Lollia Bubble Bath: Ryan gifted me this glorious glass bottle of bubbles for Christmas this year. and it's total luxury (including the price). I choose "all-natural, organic, free-of-everything, not-insulting-anyone products" most of the time, but I make exceptions when necessary. This is one of those exceptions, and trust me - totally worth it. It's pricey BUT a little goes along way. 00-or-so baths in, and my bottle looks barely used. Get it here or here. If you're in Edmonton, you can also get it in-store at Lux Beauty Boutique. I also love the Lollia hand cream. Coal and Canary Candles: I'm a big fan of this candle line, not only because they're made in my former home town of Winnipeg, but because I adore the crackle of the wooden wick as it burns. Also, these hand-poured soy candles were included in the Oscars and Grammys swag bags back in 0000. (So, basically George Clooney could be enjoying the same candle as us, at the same time!) Shop these candles online here. Locals - you can pick these up at Miss Boss Boutique. Liv Lavish Scrub: I connected with this Canadian company via Instagram, and I'm SO glad I did. Their Peppermint Mocha Coffee Body Scrub is amazing! I've used coffee scrubs in the past, but this one is minty, leaving your skin feeling so refreshed. Bonus: coffee scrubs help with cellulite. Shop online here. Pura Botanicals Countess Cleansing Nectar: You've read about my love for this Edmonton-based luxury eco-line many times, and I'm sharing again because it's THAT good. Like the rest of their products, this cleanser smells amazing and is healthy for your skin. I bought mine a year ago and I still have a quarter-bottle left! Shop here. Bebe de Luxe Bath Soak: Sometimes I skip the bubbles and just do a soak, or I add a soak with the bubbles. I came across this organic coconut and oat milk bath on Instagram. It's really lovely. The company has switched its name to So Luxury, but this product is still the same. Shop here. Eminence Oil: I've used this line for years. They have so much variety, and their products smell great! I've noticed more glow in my skin from using the Firm Skin Acai Booster Serum. I have a few different serums that I rotate. Glo Cream: I was introduced to this line while receiving a few treatments at Lipstick Empire LaserSpa in my hometown of Edmonton. This Restorative Cream smells like exactly like Fruit Gushers! I get excited to put this on everyday just for that smell. Shop it here. Locals -you can also pick this up in-store at Lipstick Empire. Pura Botanicals Overnight Mango Mask: This is a must-have for dry Alberta winters! Lather on before bed, and your skin will thank you. I sometimes use this as a cream if our weather conditions are extra dry. They also make this in Watermelon (I still can't decide which is my favourite). Buy it here. Heat Bag: My sister-in-law makes these, and gave me one for Christmas. This comfort bag filled with flax seed can be used hot or cold, and has a removable washable cover. I warm mine up in the microwave for a few minutes (almost every night) before I crawl into bed. Shop here! Essential Oil Diffuser: We quit using those (toxic) room sprays years ago and this has been a perfect replacement. Not only does this essential oil diffuser cleanse and purify the air, but it makes your home smell so incredible! I have this one by my bed and use lavender essential oil to help me drift off. How do you like to treat yourself? Comment below. I would love to know!

Server-side includes provide a means to add dynamic content to existing HTML documents. What else can I config? This article deals with Server Side Includes, usually called simply SSI. In this article, I'll talk about configuring your server to permit SSI, and introduce some basic SSI techniques for adding dynamic content to your existing HTML pages. In the latter part of the article, we'll talk about some of the somewhat more advanced things that can be done with SSI, such as conditional statements in your SSI directives. The decision of when to use SSI, and when to have your page entirely generated by some program, is usually a matter of how much of the page is static, and how much needs to be recalculated every time the page is served. SSI is a great way to add small pieces of information, such as the current time - shown above. But if a majority of your page is being generated at the time that it is served, you need to look for some other solution. This tells Apache that you want to permit files to be parsed for SSI directives. Note that most configurations contain multiple Options directives that can override each other. You will probably need to apply the Options to the specific directory where you want SSI enabled in order to assure that it gets evaluated last. One disadvantage to this approach is that if you wanted to add SSI directives to an existing page, you would have to change the name of that page, and all links to that page, in order to give it a .shtml extension, so that those directives would be executed. XBitHack tells Apache to parse files for SSI directives if they have the execute bit set. So, to add SSI directives to an existing page, rather than having to change the file name, you would just need to make the file executable using chmod. A brief comment about what not to do. You'll occasionally see people recommending that you just tell Apache to parse all .html files for SSI, so that you don't have to mess with .shtml file names. These folks have perhaps not heard about XBitHack. The thing to keep in mind is that, by doing this, you're requiring that Apache read through every single file that it sends out to clients, even if they don't contain any SSI directives. This can slow things down quite a bit, and is not a good idea. Of course, on Windows, there is no such thing as an execute bit to set, so that limits your options a little. Use the XBitHack Full configuration. This tells Apache to determine the last modified date by looking only at the date of the originally requested file, ignoring the modification date of any included files. Use the directives provided by mod_expires to set an explicit expiration time on your files, thereby letting browsers and proxies know that it is acceptable to cache them. It is formatted like an HTML comment, so if you don't have SSI correctly enabled, the browser will ignore it, but it will still be visible in the HTML source. If you have SSI correctly configured, the directive will be replaced with its results. The echo function just spits out the value of a variable. There are a number of standard variables, which include the whole set of environment variables that are available to CGI programs. Also, you can define your own variables with the set function. If you don't like the format in which the date gets printed, you can use the config function, with a timefmt attribute, to modify that formatting. This function is also subject to timefmt format configurations. Following are some specific examples of things you can do in your HTML documents with SSI. When was this document modified? Earlier, we mentioned that you could use SSI to inform the user when the document was most recently modified. However, the actual method for doing that was left somewhat in question. The following code, placed in your HTML document, will put such a time stamp on your page. Of course, you will have to have SSI correctly enabled, as discussed above. For more details on the timefmt format, go to your favorite search site and look for strftime. The syntax is the same. If you are managing any site that is more than a few pages, you may find that making changes to all those pages can be a real pain, particularly if you are trying to maintain some kind of standard look across all those pages. Using an include file for a header and/or a footer can reduce the burden of these updates. You just have to make one footer file, and then include it into each page with the include SSI command. The include function can determine what file to include with either the file attribute, or the virtual attribute. The file attribute is a file path, relative to the current directory. That means that it cannot be an absolute file path (starting with /), nor can it contain ../ as part of that path. The virtual attribute is probably more useful, and should specify a URL relative to the document being served. It can start with a /, but must be on the same server as the file being served. I'll frequently combine the last two things, putting a LAST_MODIFIED directive inside a footer file to be included. SSI directives can be contained in the included file, and includes can be nested - that is, the included file can include another file, and so on. In addition to being able to config the time format, you can also config two other things. And you can config the format in which file sizes are returned with the sizefmt attribute. You can specify bytes for a full count in bytes, or abbrev for an abbreviated number in Kb or Mb, as appropriate. I expect that I'll have an article some time in the coming months about using SSI with small CGI programs. For now, here's something else that you can do with the exec function. You can actually have SSI execute a command using the shell (/bin/sh, to be precise - or the DOS shell, if you're on Win00). The following, for example, will give you a directory listing. You might notice some strange formatting with this directive on Windows, because the output from dir contains the string ``<dir>'' in it, which confuses browsers. Note that this feature is exceedingly dangerous, as it will execute whatever code happens to be embedded in the exec tag. If you have any situation where users can edit content on your web pages, such as with a ``guestbook'', for example, make sure that you have this feature disabled. You can allow SSI, but not the exec feature, with the IncludesNOEXEC argument to the Options directive. In addition to spitting out content, Apache SSI gives you the option of setting variables, and using those variables in comparisons and conditionals. In addition to merely setting values literally like that, you can use any other variable, including environment variables or the variables discussed above (like LAST_MODIFIED, for example) to give values to your variables. You will specify that something is a variable, rather than a literal string, by using the dollar sign ($) before the name of the variable. To put a literal dollar sign into the value of your variable, you need to escape the dollar sign with a backslash. Now that we have variables, and are able to set and compare their values, we can use them to express conditionals. This lets SSI be a tiny programming language of sorts. mod_include provides an if, elif, else, endif structure for building conditional statements. This allows you to effectively generate multiple logical pages out of one actual page. A test_condition can be any sort of logical comparison - either comparing values to one another, or testing the ``truth'' of a particular value. (A given string is true if it is nonempty.) For a full list of the comparison operators available to you, see the mod_include documentation. Any other variable (either ones that you define, or normal environment variables) can be used in conditional statements. See Expressions in Apache HTTP Server for more information on the expression evaluation engine. With Apache's ability to set environment variables with the SetEnvIf directives, and other related directives, this functionality can let you do a wide variety of dynamic content on the server side without resorting a full web application. SSI is certainly not a replacement for CGI, or other technologies used for generating dynamic web pages. But it is a great way to add small amounts of dynamic content to pages, without doing a lot of extra work.

Durban rap artist Judas takes us to Abu Dhabi with his new smash single. Things are looking up for this one, cant wait to see the video. Dreamteam have been quiet for a while now but seems like they are back to please they fans. Lack inspiration lately? Here's a nice set of quick tips that should help you find inspiration in the studio. 0. Using reverb can push elements towards the back of the soundstage. If you want to add some reverb, but still keep the sound "up front", try increasing the amount of pre-delay on the sound. This will detach the sound from its reverb, so your element remains more "up front" while you still have a nice reverb effect. 0. When using reverb/s, make use of busses with the reverb/s on them, and send your channels to the busses. This not only saves on CPU, but also makes the reverb much easier to control. Just moving a couple of faders on our busses can make the overall mix "wetter" or "dryer". 0. As a general rule, leave all of your mix automation somewhere towards the end of the mixing process. Get your mix and arrangement sounding good, then go in and add your automation tweaks. 0. If you are just starting to train your ears consider including a spectrum analyzer on your master bus and a great track that you'd like to emulate as part of your autoload. As you go along making your track, try A/B-ing your track against the track you want to emulate and analyzing each with the spectrum analyzer. NOTE: simply copying what you see on the Pro track does not mean that your mix is going to be great - things like the key of the track make a difference. However, if you do this with different reference tracks, you'll start to notice general similarities in the spectrum of highly produced tracks in your genre. Notice things like where the low end is rolled off, how the mids look in relation to the highs etc. Above all use your ears! 0. Don't get caught up in the "I must have every new plugin" game. Find ones that you really like and focus on mastering them before you add more. Learn your craft. 0. If you like to gate things to your drums, create a dedicated sidechain trigger track - so you can keep those nice pumping effects even when your main drums are muted. This can be as simple as copying your drums to another channel with no output (or muted) and having things sidechained to that channel. 0. It's often a good approach to lay down the musical elements of your track before writing any basslines - the musical elements will help give your bassline direction and ensure that they all fit together nicely. 0. Using vocal samples? Pay attention to the key and transpose them so that they match the key of your track - if you aren't sure about this see our post on understanding key. Once you've found a nice fit, a good trick on energetic tracks is to then tune the sample up by 00-00 cents. The slightly sharper tone with give your vocals a bit more punch, as many vocalists tend to sing slightly flat. 0. Want to fatten up that synth sound? Tune one of the oscillators on your synth down an octave (00 semitones). Tuning an oscillator up 0 semitones also gives you a nice open-0th sound, which works great on big pads or leads. 00. Planning on taking your Ableton track somewhere else to work on it? Don't forget to use the "Collect all and save" feature when saving it. This will make sure that all of your project files are collected from wherever they may be on your computer and packed nicely into a handy folder that you can throw on your drive. No more getting there and realizing that you're missing a few of the key audio clips! 00. If you're looking to fatten your synth sounds, don't overlook the "unison" button (you'll find this on the ES0 for example, as well as many other hardware and software synths) - try playing around with this to see how the additional voices thicken things up quickly. 00. Try using a delay send-effect to simulate loops playing at different tape speeds. The delay time should NOT be synced to tempo, but just increase linearly over the duration of the process (you can just draw this automation in). You'll get some interesting results at various stages, which you can again bounce down - and this works nicely for things like vocals and pads as well. 00. Looking for some interesting twists on your drum loops? Try copying a percussive loop to two tracks. Shorten one of the loops by a 00th note, and then repeat both loops for 00 measures. The shorter note will fall behind a 00th each measure and then , at measure 00, be back in sync. Among these 00 bar segements, you'll find some interesting variations, which you can then bounce down as a new loop. (You can also shorten one loop by a 00th note triplet and get some interesting syncopation and swing into the pattern). 00. If you are using Ableton in a studio setting, you may want to optimize it's audio quality when bouncing your track down. 00. Have your drums channels mixed the way you like them? Then group them, so that you can adjust the overall drum level in the mix while keeping the relative drum channel levels the same. In Ableton, this is as simple as shift-clicking on all your drum tracks and then hitting Cmd-G or Ctrl-G. 00. If you are mixing in loops and rhythm elements from a lot of different sources, it helps to use a frequency analyzer when mixing them and keep an eye on the spectrum. You can use a little EQ to even out any frequencies that stand out - generally you are aiming for a fairly flat spectrum. 00. Most people just use the default settings for quantization in logic, or import templates - but the extended quantize parameters in logic are extremely versatile and useful. These include things like Q-Swing, Q-Strength, Q-Range and Q-Flam. The key command for bringing up these extra quantization parameters in Logic is "P" - or you can find these in the extended parameters window which by ‘Right Clicking' or ‘Control Clicking' on "Quantize" and selecting ‘Extended Parameters'. 00. If you are using Logic's ES0 for Bass sounds, don't overlook the "Sine Level" pot. Adding a bit of this can give your patch a touch more bass end as it is a sine-wave generator tuned at oscillator 0's pitch and reinforces the original signal. Also, play around with putting the ES0 into Unison mode, set to mono, and adding more voices. Watch your ears and monitors! 00. Did you know that best practice is to bounce down to the format that is specific to your platform? If you are on a MAC it's probably safest to bounce to AIFF and if you are on a PC bounce to WAV to get the best results. -Control-click or right-click the Sine label, and choose a waveform from the pop-up menu. -Click-hold the Sine label and drag the mouse vertically. -Shift-click the menu, and type in a value, to select the Digiwave numerically. 00. After some interesting random percussive rhythms to apply on top of a beat in Logic? Try loading something like a single Tom sound mapped across your keyboard in the EXS00. Once you've done this, draw in an empty MIDI region and draw in a trigger on each 00th for your looping area. NOW go to Functions/Transform and select "Reverse Pitch". On the "Flip" button select "+/-Random" and increase the amount to 00 (basically this will randomize each 00th by pitch randomly over two octaves). The select "Operate". Try it! 00. Have a muddy mix? A high-pass filter applied to every channel can really help clean up a busy mix and give the kick and bass some room to move. 00. If you are looking for interesting effects, try adding sending an element to a bus with chorus on it, set to "pre" and then panning the effected sound to the rear and reducing the volume. If you do this while keeping the original signal in the front you can get some interesting effects. 00. Using Cubase and looking for that "disco re-edit" sound or a more live feel generally in your original track? Try looking beyond quantization swing and play around with the Tempo record function. Within the Tempo window (Alt/Cmd-T), just move the slider to your desired tempo while the track is playing back. Maybe leave the intro and outro nicely locked for mixing and add a little fluctuation in the middle to give the whole track some new swing? 00. When using Pro Tools, adjust the Hardware Buffer Size appropriately in the Playback Engine set up window. As a general rule, keep it low (up to 000 samples) for recording to avoid latency, unless you use the low - latency monitoring options, in which case, any processing on armed tracks will be bypassed. Use a high buffer size for mixing, to maximise processing. 00. Having Plug-in Buffer problems in Logic? Be aware that plug ins like the Adaptive Limiter will produce their own latency problems, so don't use these until all recording is complete. The Multipressor will cause similar issues as will the use of too many ‘regular' plug-ins. Bounce a file of your track if you need to record audio over a ‘busy' backing track. 00. Did you know that if you drag a quick-time movie with audio into arrangement view in Live the video will pop open and you see the movie audio just like any other audio sample? You can then use the "Loop Brace" to create movie loops and use warp markers to radically speed up and slow down the movie. 00. Don't overlook the time saving features of Key Command Macros in cubase. Want to quantize, trim note legnth, and fix velocity of your MIDI in one go? Create a new Macro in your key commands window and then add "MIDI - fixed lengths", "MIDI - fixed velocity", and "MIDI - Quantize". Then select your MIDI part and apply the Macro (bottom of the edit window). Figure out which things you might frequently do and create useful macros for yourself. 00. Your computer will run better when it's plugged into the mains. So, if you're doing CPU intensive work, whenever possible make sure you are plugged up. 00. If you are using Reason and want that great reversed vocal or drum sound before the original, there's a nice one-key way to do this. Open your sample in the audio editor and reverse it - then set the playback mode to "Forward + Backward" and you'll hear the sound nicely swell into itself. 00. No matter what your DAW, the smallest buffer size possible should be used when recording to prevent latency - but when on playback you can increase this to avoid system overload messages. 00. It is advisable not to compress your whole mix prior to mixdown but just to concentrate on getting a good mix. Leave worrying about power and loudness for when you pull the bounce into a new mastering session. This way, if your track is picked up, you'll have a nice raw track so send to a proper mastering engineer. 00. If you are tired of waiting for Live to analyze your files when you drop them into your sets, just browse to the folder and control/right-click on the folder and choose "Analyse". Now when you drop one of the files into your set, it's ready instantly! 00. Want to know how to make a simple major chord from any key on your keyboard? Easy. Put your finger on any key, count up four keys (whites and blacks) and put your second finger there. Lastly, count up 0 more keys from your second finger. There you have it, a basic major chord. 00. Want to know how to make a simple minor chord from any key on your keyboard? Easy. Follow the instructions above for a major chord. Then drop your middle finger down one key. There you have it, a basic minor chord. 00. Want to quickly automate more than one element in Logic? Just group the faders, then any automation moves will be written en masse. 00. If you always want to use the high-quality setting for your EQ0 in Live, just right-click on the EQ0 and select high-quality as the default setting. 00. If you are limited in terms of your investment capital for your setup, at least get a quality set of monitors. Having a decent set of monitors to reference your music on will change the way you produce. 00. If you're creating your own loops from chopped material, recorded material etc, make sure that you prep them before getting too far into producing with them. Make sure they don't have unwanted silence on the front end, which might make them out of sync with the rest of your material. Also, be sure to check that the start and end points fade nicely at the zero crossing. This will ensure you don't get left with nasty little pops and clicks. 00. If you're running out of room on the default drive you loaded your Live library to, you may want to move it to an external drive to free up some room. Go into your preferences and choose Library>Location. You can then move your library to another location. 00. After some interesting rhythmical textures? Right/Cntrl-click any random audio in Live and select "Slice to New MIDI Track". The try reordering the generated MIDI to work with your drums, or even integrate them into your drum rack by dragging the drum pads over. 00. You can get some interesting effects side-chaining the filter in Live. A nice little feature. 00. If you you have a complex MIDI part in Cubase and you want to separate its contents or delete some notes you can speedily do this by choosing MIDI>Dissolve part with the even selected. Each note can then be split off to a separate even or even split by channel. 00. If the machine you are using for music production is also connected to the web, it's probably a good idea to turn off automatic updates for your machine. By doing so, you'll make sure that any incompatibilities that updates might create with your DAW are avoided. You can always select to download updates but manually install them - giving you time to ensure that you have properly backed up your machine before installing updates. 00. Sorry, did you say that you don't regularly back up your machine/sample library? Are you a glutton for punishment? Back up, back up, back up - or you'll eventually regret it. 00. The EVOC (Logic's vocoder) can be used for much more than the traditional vocoder effect - especially if you make use of side-chaining. Try setting it up in it's synth mode and play in a chord/note that works with your track. Then side chain it to something like your drums to get an interesting rhythm that sits well with your drums. Try delaying this to get some interesting accompanyments that compliment your drums. 00. If you're using pads to fill out your track, try using a band-pass filter on the sound and modulate it in some way to give your pads movment - this could be something like LFO's, envelopes, or even just track automation of the filter itself. 00. Some limiters will let you push their output to 0db but some will let you push past that. It's good practice to set the output level below zero (-0.0 or -0.0 for example) to avoid any potential clipping or errors. 00. Compression and limiting are nice but don't squash the life out of your track. It results in no dynamics and a tiring feel...if your waveform basically looks like a solid block, you're probably pushing way too hard. "...files should be in WAV or AIFF format and should not have been converted to a lesser quality (ie resolution or sample rate) - please do not send us MP0 versions! Your files should be as raw as possible please send with with no effects, compression or maximisation. It helps to ensure no plug-ins used have over-levelled at any point and the file sent has had no channels touching the red, lastly a good 0db or so of headroom on the finished file is essential to allow us to do our thing and obtain the best possible audio result. 00. When you are layering kicks to get that perfect sound, pay attention to phase. If you are layering a couple of kicks, say one with a low end and one with a more punchy mid/top, try switching the phase on one of the channels. This can sometimes result in a more pleasing sound. Another option is to play with the track delay. Moving one of them slightly in relation to the other can often give you a nice result. 00. When trying to brighten a sound, it's often as useful to remove some of the lower mids as it is to try and increase the higher frequencies with EQ. Just be careful not to remove too much as you will loose punch. 00. Try sending all of your drum elements, minus the kick and snare, to a bus and add a compressor to the bus. If you side-chain your kick and snare to the compressor on this bus and adjust the send levels of the kick and snare to the bus, you will be able to push up all the elements in your drums but still keep the main driving elements - kick and snare - prominent. 00. If you can't seem to find that right percussive sound and you've gone through your library, don't forget about adjusting the transients on what you have. This, and detuning, can seriously alter your drum library sounds and you'll likely find what you are after. For a more percussive sound, use short attacks, low sustains and quick decays. For more smooth and extended sounds it's the opposite. 00. After struggling to work this out at home, I came across this really informative video courtesy of makemorenoise that covers how to easily copy track automation in Logic Pro using very simple key commands. 00. Use the Flutter control to add pitch inconsistencies to the output of the Tape Delay plug-in. Interestingly, this can work particularly well with ‘fixed pitch' sounds (like a Fender Rhodes piano, for example) as the pitch modulations add an extra touch of chorus-like warmth. 00. When applying delay, experimenting with feedback can create interesting effects. Features to use in conjunction with feedback are the Low Cut and High Cut controls. Delay always seems to work best when it has a different timbral colour from the original input, arguably helping the ear to make a distinction between the dry and wet signals as well as mimicking the tonal colouration of an ‘echo' that might occur in the real world. Using these filtering controls (which are positioned as part of the feedback circuit) you can make the delay darker (using High Cut), thinner (using Low Cut) or narrower (using a combination of both filters). 00. You can give your drums a pulsing feel if you apply an LFO controlled low-pass filter to them. Add the filter to your drum track and lower the frequency until you start hearing it filter the hi-hats. Then, set the LFO amount nice and low and sync the rate to a 0-bar cycle. You can then offset the LFO to taste. 00. Off beat hi-hat patterns can make your patterns more interesting if you loop them for 0 beats rather than the usual four. This way, they cycle at a different rate to the main loop, but still stay in time. Give it a try and see how it sounds. 00. DAW's will store your audio files, unless you deliberately delete them. Having masses of audio in your project file will clog up your hard drive un-necessarily when your project is finished. So, in Logic go to your Audio Bin and find the ‘delete un-used audio' function. 00. If you're having trouble with hard drive space, think about recording in MIDI instead of audio. This will allow you to record lots of alternate takes without having to worry too much about space. Perfect for laptop producers, who's hard drives may not be as large. 00. Confused about when to use insert effects or send to a buss with an effect on it? As a general rule, you should use inserts on channels that you want to process independantly, but use busses if you want to process a group of channels collectively. For example, you might have a group of drum tracks - kick, snares, hats, shakers, that you want to EQ and compress. You might put an individual EQ on each of the channels, and compress each channel differently to get the desired sound. Then, you could send all of these channels to a buss with another compressor on it that compresses the collective tracks to "glue" them together. 00. Using Reverb and Delay as buss effects is often useful as it creates a common sense of space for all of your track parts. If you use different Reverb and Delay settings for each track as an insert, this can create a sense of non-conformity that your brain feels is strange - afterall, we are used to listening to music in one type of environment, which colours the whole sound. 00. Even though you remove a file from your session in Ableton, Ableton's file management system still keeps any previously used files in the project folder. This can end up taking up a lot of unecessary space on your drive. You can use the "manage files" function. -then click show in finder (make sure that the headphone sample preview is off. Select all and delete...Bam free hard drive space. 00. One way to grab vocals off a recording is to eq out the drums but this often has some undesireable effects on the vocal as well. If you happen to have the instrumental version, you can try another technique - phase cancellation. Here's a nice little video on the process. 00. Looking for that "sampled from vinyl" effect to give your tracks a little more grit? Don't overlook the bit-crusher. Just a slight bit of crushing on some select elements can give your digital tracks that more organic feel. 00. A good way to get some movement in your mix is to use autopanners on two instruments playing the same MIDI information. Oppose the starting points so that as they pan they cross eachother as they pan. Keep on eye on your wet/dry setting on the panners though or the mix may become unbalanced. 00. An important and often overlooked part of mastering is to check your mix for mono compatibility. Many club systems have mono systems and it your track isn't mono compatible you will get phase cancellation - removing essential parts like your bassline. Get an analyzer that checks for mono compatibility - many mastering suites have them and there are also free tools you can find on the web. 00. Use busses and group similar sounds there applying effects like reverb and compression. By creating group busses for basses and drums for example, you'll develope a more coherent "glued together" sound. 00. Many of Ableton's plugins have different quality modes - such as the EQ for example. Setting them to the highest quality mode will result in a better quality processing of the audio, but this also results in higher CPU use. If you are struggling with CPU load, consider setting them to a lower setting when in your arranging/jamming mode and then having your mixing defaults set to the highest setting. At this point you should have already bounced down quite a few files and will have more processing power available. 00. Be careful when using your DAW's freeze function or exporting stems for mixing - many DAWS will bypass any sidechaning you had in place when you do this. Instead, bounce any side-chained parts down using sidechain processing individually through the master bus (set to 0dB with all plugins bypassed). Be sure you have the output of the sidechain source channels muted with still sending their signal to the bus. 00. Always keep your monitoring level at a reasonable level whilst you are working in the studio and turn it up once in a while for a short period. SAVE YOUR EAR's - the last thing you want is to damage your ears or get tinnitus which could end your music making career for good! 00. Always save your tracks with different version names as you are writing the track. This will enable you to experiment more with the track without worries about loosing your way - if you lose your way you can always pull up an earlier version. 00. This should go without saying but many people still don't do it. BACK UP!!! My backup external hard drive recently broke and I did not replace it straight away. 0 weeks later my hard drive died and I lost everything. 0 years of music arrangements gone. Don't think it won't happen to you and get caught out! 00. Name your tracks either as you go or at the end of every session. This will make it much easier when you go back to your arrangement to alter tracks easily and know what's what. 00. An equalizer and spectrum meter are essential when you are writing a song. Analyze your tracks EQ responses to find ranges of your mix that are lacking frequencies, and fill in the gaps. You can also then use EQ to help even out your mixes. It is also a good idea to analyze some of your favourite tracks in the same genre to get a sense of what the frequency range looks like. 00. If your gain reduction meter on your compressor doesn't return to 0dB for a few bars, you are probably over-compressing. The fact that gain reduction never returns to 0dB indicates that compression is always taking place. A constantly compressed signal - especially if it's relating to your whole track - can sound very flat and lifeless, as you are squashing all of the natural dynamics out of your sounds. 00. When you are dialing in settings on a compressor ask yourself these questions each time. 00. Don't overlook the built in track delay for each of the tracks in your DAW. By altering these slightly (0-00ms or so) you can push things forward in time or pull them back, creating a relaxed or urgent feel. Clever playing around with these will also give your track it's own unique sense of swing. 00. If you're using a sampler to play in percussive sounds, variation of the velocities can make them sound more human. Go further and experiment with modulating the sample starts via an LFO or the velocity - or by altering the pitch of hits subtly. These will slightly change the place of the peak transient in your groove or mimic they way a drummer strikes differently each time. 00. The way you put your effects chains together can have a profound effect on the final sound. People are often confused about when to add EQ and compression. There's no hard-and-fast rule to this, but thinking about it in a common-sense way will help you decide. Simply ask yourself the following question: " Do I want to EQ my compressed signal, or compress my EQ'd signal?" The answer to that will tell you where to place each in your chain in that instance. If you still don't know the answer, experiment with both and see what pleases you most. 00. Did you know you can re-size the meters both horizontally and diagonally in Ableton to get more information and greater resolution? Try dragging the line above the meter or sideways on the track header to reveal the dB meter numbers. 00. Have a play with the EQ0 in Ableton vs. the EQ0 and try cutting a certain frequencies - say the low end for example. You'll soon notice that the EQ0 has a very different characteristic and can be useful for your more "broad range" cuts. 00. Experiment with stacking sounds in your sampler and then sculpting the stacked sounds to create your own unique elements. If you're using Logic for example just open up an EXS00 instrument and go to the instrument editor. Highlight the folder in the left hand "Zone" column (this will select all the zones in your instrument). Now go to the edit menu and hit "copy". Now open up a new exs00 instrument that you think might sound interesting stacked with your first one. Go to the instrument editor as before, and the select "paste". Your zones from both instruments will now be stacked and triggering a key will trigger both samples assigned to that key at the same time. 00. Looking for a slightly different way to add some movement to your pads other than the usual side-chained compression option? Try using a high-pass filter with an envelope following option and adding it to a pad sound. Set the sidechain of the filter to listen to the kick so that it raises the filter cut-off when the kick drum plays. 00. If your kick is lacking clarity, one fix is to subtly layer it with on-beat hats - these bring it some clarity and bite. Just mix it to taste. 00. Old schol drum machines were created so that the kick and snares in particular kits are designed to work well with eachother right out of the box, so you can use these as a foundation for your beats and then layer up with your own samples for extra flavour. 00. Give your hats some nice movement by panning the closed hats hard left and right and creating a sequence that alternately triggers left and right hats. Put an open hat in the centre. 00. If you are using the EXS00 and want to emulate the classic "choking" effect where open and closed hats cannot play at the same time just route all your hats to a single "Group". To do this, just go to the group pull-down menu and create a new group. Set the number of voices to 0. Now, only one sound can play at once, effectively "choking" the others. 00. If you want to easily see where triplets should fall using your grid, try programming using a 00/0 quantize grid. 00. Looking for that extra bit of energy in your fills? Try switching to triplets in the fill before reverting back to 00th or 0th quantize divisions for the regular groove. 00. Looking for a more chunky sound to your hats and snares? Try some modest bit-crushing and you'll be surprised at how this can thicken up some sounds. This will reduce some of the high range frequency, so you'll need to compensate with a bit of upper-end EQ. 00. Working all day with a loud kick drum can tire your ears, not to mention in some cases annoy the neighbors. Try putting a low cut filter on your master channel just to give your ears a bit of rest once you've got your kick levels sorted. You can always turn it off periodically to test your mix levels. Your ears and your neighbors will appreciate the break. 00. Have you written in all your automation and found out you need to do some track level tweaking? Save yourself the hassle of altering your automation and instead insert a utility plugin on the rogue channel. You can dial in a negative output level and bring the gain of your channel down without having to get into the automation. 00. Fills are great for filling the space left when the vocalist or lead instrumentalist isn't playing, and also signal changes in your arrangement. This will create tension and add interest to a track. Fills could be drum rolls, for example, or a reverse reverb from a vocal. 00. Did you know you can save clips containing just MIDI CC automation data for future use ? You could, for example, open up previous projects and save the filter sweeps, volume swells or velocity patterns. These can then easily be transferred over existing MIDI tracks on new tracks. Use something like Cubase's Logical Editor or Logic's Transform functions to reassign your clips to entirely new CCs. A great time saver. 00. If you ever feel like u don't know where to go with your track, try using your DAW's MIDI transpose function to shift entire passages up and down in pitch. Often, these transposition tools offer the option of keeping the notes relative to the key of the song. You may also want to try this without this option- you'll be surprised at some of the interesting key change progressions you arrive at. 000. Don't overlook MIDI control numbers for your synth. These will be listed somewhere in the manual and offer a way for you to draw in automation and assign it to a vast array of parameters on your synth. Try drawing in your own automation and assinging it to whatever MIDI parameter you want to modulate. You could assign it to the general MIDI CC 00 for the cutoff frequency or MIDI CC 0 for the volume for example. Experiment with different CC's and see what cool effects you stumble across. 000. Looking to add some extra oomph to a chord? Try assigning a different sound to each note in the chord and play with the levels/ADSR of each to get a good fit. An easy way to do this is to play each key of your chord individually with a different synth patch for each and record the output. Then throw these sounds in a sampler and assign them to each of the appropriate keys. When you play them all together, you'll get an interesting multi-layered chord. Very similar to the concept of stacking intstruments, but with an extra twist. 000. A lot of the space and size in my breakdowns comes from layering pads. I'll have two or three layered and EQ them so they take care of different frequencies. So if there's a pad that's quite bottom-end orientated I'll take the top out of it. Then, for another pad with really nice top end, I'll EQ out the bottom end and so on. I also like to widen things up a little and logics sample delay is a fantastic way to get wideness to sounds. It lets you delay one of the channels by samples rather than milliseconds and is really good for widening pads. A lot of people put too much into tracks when making trance and it can get too crowded. I always work from the peak of the track and then strip it back for the arrangement. For ambience, the Big Cave preset on logics Space Designer is great and I also use QuikQuak's fusion field. Try raising the reverb level over time so it almost overpowers the dry signal for big build-ups. 000. Lately, I like to add a little randomness - and sometimes a lot of it - to some parameters of my instruments: pitch, pan, volume, cut-off, decay, fx levels and so on. When done subtly, it may not be too noticeable from the outside and the listener probably can't guess what is going on. But it will start to make instruments sound a bit more lively, unique and interesting. For example, it can be done in NI Massive or any other vst through formula controller if, like me, you use FL Studio. 000. With the update of Maschine to 0.0 there are some quick new ways to select and modify notes. Hold erase+select+pad to erase notes or shift+select+pad to select them. Once you've selected the events on particular pad, you can modify their with the swing, timing, velocities etc. 000. We've probably said this before, but get used to using a spectrum analyzer on each channel to help you clean up your mixes and notch out conflicting frequencies on different tracks. You'd be surprised how much "mud" you'll find on things you really didn't think had any low end, and cleaning this unecessary stuff out from the start will help you get a much cleaner mix in the end. 000. The key to getting expressive unique sounds from your synth is various forms of modulation. Get to understand your Mod Matrix and the various ways you can alter the sounds over time with things like envelopes. You'll be glad you spent the time and find yourself deviating from the standard presets in your own way. 000. It doesn't ALWAYS have to cost a load to be good. In fact there are a ton of great free plugins on the web. Our free area at Plugin Boutique is a good place to start your hunt. 000. Looking to get a more interesting sequence from your arpeggiator? Try throwing one after another for some even stranger effects. Another great way to play with the original sequence is to alter the note velocities and lengths using your DAWs' "Transform" or "Numerical Edit" function. 000. Modulating a synth's filter cutoff frequency with an LFO is a great way to get a sound that evolves and works well with an apreggiator. 000. It's a good idea to add and EQ and roll off the low end on your delay and reverb busses to keep things from getting muddy. 000. Use wide voicing and go easy on the sustain if you're working with a Rhodes sound, to keep things from getting muddy. 000. Did you know that you can play any sample you drop into a clip in Ableton's session view chromatically? Just drop a sample into an empty clip, click on MIDI learn, and while the clip is highlighted press the lowest and highest keys on your keyboard. Exit MIDI learn and you'll now be able to play the sample pitched up and down on your keyboard. For good results, double click the audio file and turn of global quantization for the clip, so every time you hit a key the sample plays back immediately. 000. With the newest operating system update to Maschine, you've got a great way to browse your samples. Just turn on preview mode in the browser and select your sample folder. As you browse through using the hardware controller you'll audition the sounds and if you come across something you love, you'll be ready to load it into the sampler and start playing. 000. Did you know that if you are planning on dithering your bounced file after bouncing (during the final mastering stage) Ableton's manual suggests you bounce at 00-bit (or above)? These guys are so underratted, I've been listening and appreciating their music for a while now. In the last year and change, Audio Push have released a ton of music. From their Inside the Vibe and The Stone Junction EPs to their My Turn series and debut album, 00000. So much so, that they've decided to package up a collection of tracks they haven't released yet and released them as The Throwaways. Produced entirely by Larry Belafonte, The Throwaways can be heard below. Weezy threw up the diamond sign to the packed crowd at Aebersold Recreation Center recently and mentioned that he is now part of Roc Nation, "Is it cool if I just say it? Its the Roc. You know I'm a member of that team now,". This is definately a good move for Weezy since he's been having endless label issues with former label, Cash Money. Kendrick Lamar surprises us and unveils the cover and tracklist for his highly anticipated forthcoming album titled "DAMN." No rap features on this album and we cant wait to hear it. Damn. is set to drop on Thursday 00th of April.

There was a thread a while back that discussed them. It may have even been the "0 strokes" one, I don't recall. Some people like 'em, some don't. I personally do. I wouldn't want to do a large garden with one though. If taken care and stored (for winter if you're in that kind of area) properly they work fine and they dig like crazy. You do have to hold on to 'em though as they can try to bounce if they strike a good sized root or something. You also pull them for digging rather than go foward. I agree that they are really neat especially if you have narrow raised beds. I bought a Honda instead of the Mantis. It wasn't much more expensive. I don't like 0-strokes.

What if it is only folklore? What if girls are adept and clamoring to be in STEM classes and women, in STEM fields? Daniel and Susan Voyer just released their study Gender Differences in Scholastic Achievement: A Meta-Analysis in the Psychological Bulletin. They raise doubts that about the generally accepted belief that girls are not interested in science and math. They turn it into an urban legend. The meta-analysis asked and answered questions about the generally reported STEM gap between genders from elementary school through the university. "The largest effects were observed for language courses, and the smallest gender differences were obtained in math courses. In contrast, the magnitude of gender differences was significantly smaller in mathematics, science, and social sciences courses when compared to global measures." The results of this academic, scientific meta-analysis showed that gender differences "favored females in all fields of study" (p.00). They encourage further study to examine gender differences in school performance. What does this tell us about our assumptions and how they may play out as teachers and leaders? With little doubt, the message is clear. We need to be invested in all students' ability to access higher-level courses that are rigorous and prepare them well for college and career. Whether they are female or male we have the same obligation to encourage and support their learning capacities. While the studies continue and the information grows, will it make a difference in our practice? A recent ThinkProgress.org article reported that a study released by the Center for Talent Innovation that found "women call it quits 00 percent more often in their rookie years at ... STEM jobs than men." They also reported that 00% of those graduating from engineering or science programs are women. So it isn't that women are not going into college with the intention of going into STEM fields. Why are they leaving? The article points to the fact that women are primary care givers if their family includes children. STEM careers tend to be rigid in their demand for time. They also cite bias that senior leaders fail to believe women can reach top jobs in STEM fields. And finally, they cite a tremendous wage gap between male and female wage earners in STEM fields. Once discovered, that wouldn't be encouraging for women wanting to advance their careers. On one hand, we have to ask ourselves why we would encourage female students in this direction. And on the other hand, we need women in these fields to push at the boundaries and make the changes necessary. Raising a family is important for both mothers and fathers. Flexibility in the workplace has been figured out in many other fields. There are successful female doctors of every specialty. There are female college presidents, governors, senators, and members of congress, there are female school leaders, and CEO's. It has been figured out. The belief that women cannot rise to the top of a STEM field is ridiculous and that must be addressed. And finally, the wage gap is simply absurd. So not only do we have an obligation to prepare all students for STEM fields, it seems that particularly for young women, we need to prepare them to be scientists, technologists, engineers, mathematicians AND we need to prepare them to be advocates who can champion their cause and fight for equal opportunities in these fields. If what this article has reported doesn't change, then the rhetoric about falling behind other nations in these fields will remain. With women as almost half the graduates in these fields, the problem does not appear to be lack of interest or ability. Perhaps we have stumbled onto something else. Perhaps it is the field, at least in part, that is failing to welcome women into its workforce and therein lies the problem to be addressed. If not corrected, we will lose the talents of someone like Brittany Wenger, a Florida high school graduate (from Out of Door Academy) who is now a Duke University college freshman. She was included as one of Time Magazine's list of "00 People Under 00 Changing the World". Why? As part of her high school work, she wrote a program to analyze needle biopsy samples that identifies malignant breast tumors with 00.0 percent accuracy...all because she became interested in artificial intelligence as a seventh grader. She received Google's 0000 science fair grand prize for the project..."Global Neural Network Cloud Service for Breast Cancer." She was 00 years old. Now that girl's contribution cannot be lost. She is a lesson for leaders and teachers alike. We need to be watching for more of these girls and we need to have the STEM doors open wide.

California's Sacramento River Delta flows into the San Francisco Bay to form the largest estuarine ecosystem on the entire Pacific coast of both North and South America. Scattered along the shoreline of the San Francisco Bay and the Delta are many wildlife refuges and ecological preserves covering much of the shoreline. From November through January, millions of water birds arrive from their northern breeding grounds. Some of the refuges are remote and hard to find, and others fill the narrow spaces between the waters of the bay and populated communities. In this newsletter, I reveal some of my favorite places to photograph around the San Francisco Bay Area.
