Quantum entanglement has been called "spooky action at a distance" by Einstein and has often been called spooky or weird since then. Recently two diamonds, big enough to see with your eye, were observed to have entangled quantum mechanical states. This is the first time solid objects at room temperature have been measured to be in an entangled state!1-4 It’s a big deal! Read on to learn about quantum weirdness, entanglement, and this experiment. Figure 1. (a) Experimental equipment used to measure entangled diamonds. (b) Diamond used in experiment. Image credits: Ian Walmsley’s Ultrafast Quantum Optics lab at the University of Oxford. On the atomic scale physicists use quantum mechanics to describe the physical properties of objects and predict outcomes of measurements. Quantum mechanics was created because the classical ways of describing things, which includes Newton’s laws, were failing when applied to very small things like atoms. Quantum mechanics is excellent in predicting and describing so many observable phenomena on the atomic scale. It hasn’t failed yet! Unfortunately, it has some strange things built into it that make even experts in the field ponder its weirdness. Many of the founders of quantum mechanics were unhappy with it. You may have heard about some of the weirdness that results from a quantum mechanical approach. The not weird, but important Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle: You can never know exactly where something is and how fast it is going at any instant because the act of measuring causes the object’s speed or location to be altered. This holds true for all systems of variables related to each other in a special way. Frequency and time are examples of related variables, and the energy of a state in quantum mechanics is directly related to the frequency, so energy and time are related too. Figure 2. A cat in a box would be described as a superposition of states between dead and alive, but once the box is opened, the measurement causes the cat to be forced into a state. Einstein, Podolsky, Rosen (EPR) Paradox and Entanglement: This originated as a thought experiment designed to point out some of the concerns of quantum mechanics. Think about one system with its very own "wave function" that describes its physical state. Then consider transforming this single system to two systems located apart from each other. These two systems don't have two identical wave functions. Instead the two systems share the original wave function, and are connected, or entangled even over very, very, long distances. An example of this might be one particle decaying into two new particles, or an atom with extra internal energy emitting that energy in the form of a packet of light energy (photon). The two new objects can travel in any old direction as long as they travel in such a way that the sum of their momenta (mass times velocity) is the same as the initial object’s momentum, and the sum of their energies (plus any that may have went into the surroundings) is the same as the energy of the initial object. If one of the objects interacts with something else, then things change. For the entanglement to last they can’t interact with anything else as they move very, very far away from each other. Measure the velocity of one object, and the other object’s velocity is known with certainty before even measuring it. This entanglement between objects allows you to sometimes make better measurements than if the objects were not entangled. If you measure the velocity of the first particle and the location of the second particle you can know the velocity and location of each particle. Entanglement may be considered as not being able to determine the exact physical origin causing the outcome of a measurement, so you always have to describe the state before the measurement as a superposition of possible states, like Schrödinger's Cat. For example if you have a single packet of light energy (photon) go through a 50-50 beam splitter (partially reflective glass), the photon has a 50% chance of reflecting off the beam splitter and a 50% chance of going through the beam splitter. The photon after the beam splitter is an entangled state described by a superposition of the photon going through and reflecting off of the beam splitter. If a detector is set up on each pathway, then only one of the detectors will register a photon, and it is impossible to predict which one. The measurement "collapses" the photon wave function into one of the two possibilities at random on each trial of the experiment. You cannot learn from this measurement whether the photon is in an entangled state or not, just as you cannot know whether the cat was in a superposition state before you learned whether it was alive or dead. If, however, a second beam splitter is set up to recombine the two paths, and a detector measures the photon after the two paths have been combined, then the photon will always end up going the same way out of the second beam splitter. This is a signature that they are entangled, and provides proof of entanglement. This is just what has been done with these two macroscopic diamonds! In quantum mechanics this connection between entangled states can easily be disrupted by the many other interactions from the many other objects around. Designing an experiment to measure entanglement isn’t the easiest, but certainly is possible and has been done a number of times. The big deal is that it’s never before been done with solid objects at room temperature. The Ultrafast Quantum Optics Group at the University of Oxford set up two diamonds near each other (15 cm apart) on a lab table (Figure 1a), and did not change any other environmental condition (like temperature or pressure). Diamonds are made of carbon atoms arranged in a special way. The research group selected a strong laser pulse with a frequency just right for being absorbed by a carbon atom in a diamond, and through another process (Raman scattering) results in a slightly lower frequency photon (packet of light energy) being emitted and an increase in one of the diamond’s vibrational energy states. The slightly lower frequency light emitted is said to be red-shifted. The extra internal vibrational energy is quickly distributed over the carbon atoms in diamonds because of the way the carbon atoms are placed (lattice structure) to make a diamond. The laser pulse was sent through a 50-50 beam splitter toward the two diamonds so both diamonds were simultaneously pumped with light (50% going toward the first diamond, 50% going toward the second diamond). If energy is absorbed from the laser pulse, the diamond’s vibrational state would increase, and red-shifted (lower frequency) light energy would be emitted. This red-shifted light provides evidence that a vibrational state exists in the diamond. They combined the red-shifted light from both possible paths and measured it with a detector (Fig 3a). By measuring exactly one red-shifted photon (packet of light energy) they were able to infer that the two diamonds should be entangled: they know that one of the diamonds has extra vibrational energy (and emitted the photon), but they can’t tell which one. Figure 3.(a) Generating an entangled state: A single laser pulse pump beam goes through a 50-50 beam splitter and simultaneously pumps the top diamond and the bottom diamond. Energy is absorbed from the pump pulse by the diamond(s), causing an increase in internal vibrational energy and the emission of red-shifted light (lower frequency than the pump beam). The red-shifted light from the two paths is combined and measured. (b) Verifying entanglement: A probe laser pulse (different from the pump pulse) goes through the 50-50 beam splitter and simultaneously probes the top diamond and the bottom diamond. When it reaches a diamond it causes the diamond to give up its extra vibrational energy and emit light with a higher frequency (blue-shifted) than the probe field. The blue-shifted light from the two paths is combined and measured. To verify the entangled state the researchers decided to probe the increased vibrational energy state of the diamonds. To do this they would have to send a laser probe beam to the diamonds before the diamonds transferred their vibrational energy to the environment, before the diamonds have a chance to decohere. The increased vibrational energy state of a diamond is short lived. A diamond crystal will give up its energy to its surroundings in the average time of 7 picoseconds or 7 trillionths of a second. Scientists call this the average decay time or lifetime of the increased energy state. Seven trillionths of a second was not a problem for this ultrafast optical lab! They were able to probe this vibrational state by sending a second, ultrafast, laser probe pulse within about 0.35 picoseconds (0.35 trillionths of a second) from the initial laser pulse. When the probe laser pulse reaches a diamond in an increased vibrational state, it causes the diamond to emit its extra energy resulting in a decreased vibrational energy state of the diamond, and the emission of a photon with a higher frequency than the probe. The higher frequency photon is said to be blue-shifted. Both possible paths of the blue-shifted light are combined and measured (Fig 3b). There is no way to know which diamond the red and blue shifted light came from, which means the diamonds must be described as sharing a vibrational state. The information from the measurements of the red-shifted and blue-shifted light provides a lower limit on the entanglement of the vibrational states of the two diamonds. If the red-shifted and blue-shifted photons are entangled, then the vibrational states of the diamond are entangled by at least the same amount. The coincident count of the two types of photons were measured and found to be highly correlated, indicating highly correlated vibrational energy states of the two diamonds. By analyzing their results to see how related these two measurements were, they found entanglement between the diamonds to be 0.85, where perfect entanglement is equal to 1.00!1 This means that when describing the two diamonds' vibrational energy, they must be described as sharing a single quantum of vibrational energy. Quantum entanglement is used in quantum communication, quantum teleportation, quantum computing, and quantum cryptography. The results of this experiment demonstrating entanglement may be used for further tests on the fundamentals of quantum mechanics, and will have implications for the applications listed above that utilize entanglement. 1.

Collaboration seems to be more and more the currency, whatever your context. There's an increasing recognition that whatever we do, we simply can not do it in isolation from others. Of course, the rewards for successful collaboration can be great, both in the scope of what can be achieved, the potential for new ideas and approaches and in the rewards of the work process itself. And the challenges are there too, and ignored at our peril. So, how do you collaborate successfully? Of course, there's not one answer to that, but all of my workshops ask that core question, with the emphasis on you and in your particular situation. What motivations do you need to be aware of? What goals do you all have and how aligned are they? And beyond that, do you communicate effectively, trust each other and have the tools and skills to influence, negotiate or resolve conflicts and move on? There are many aspects to collaboration, and our workshops and events make them practical, thought-provoking and enjoyable. What will help you get the most from your collaborations?

The Democrats' point? Rossi is a hypocrite. However, AP reporter Curt Woodward did a fact check on the Democrats' claims and says they're "untrue"—pointing out that the state earmarks were part of the capital budget (which Rossi did not write), not the general fund budget. However however—as we reported when this whole earmark business first flared up in June (and by the way, earmarks make up less than one percent of the federal budget—and they don't add spending to it, they replace other spending), Rossi has personally benefited from state earmarks. In 2007, the Everett Aquasox, of which Rossi was a part owner, got a $433,000 earmark in the state budget to upgrade their stadium. That one actually caught the attention of a conservative think tank, The Washington Policy Center—fans of Rossi, and vice versa—which included the earmark in its 2008 "Piglet Book" documenting wasteful pork in the state budget. 2. There's a nice story about PubliCola in the Kitsap Sun, including some flattering quotes from KUOW's Ross Reynolds and Crosscut's Knute Berger, who's apparently rooting for us. Who knew? 3. In case you missed it over the weekend (it went up Friday afternoon), Erica's got a hot post that takes on last Friday's front-page Seattle Times story, which editorialized against paid parking. Also posted late in the day on Friday—our daily Afternoon Jolt (the day's winner and loser), featuring a gubernatorial robo call and political consultant Blair Butterworth. 4. Finally, a report from Glenn Beck's "Restoring Honor" rally in Washington, D.C. Josh's brother runs a DJ company in D.C., and they did the music before the event. Last time they did the Tea Party rally on the D.C. mall, Josh's brother snuck in a lot of '70s funk—Parliament Funkadelic—as a kind of inside spoof on the mostly white, conservative crowd. Asked if he planned to pull that off again, Josh's brother reported nope, Beck wanted the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, or "Mo Tabs" as Beck called it. Josh's brother also had a Sarah Palin story. I did have a moment with Sarah Palin today. After her speech (which was mostly about military heroes), she sat in the front row about 20 feet from where I was set up, there was a presentation going on for a guy who has 56 grand kids. When that was announced, I looked up and made eye contact with SP and I mouthed, "Wow, 56"—she nodded at me and mouthed back "I know."

If you've been keeping up with some of our earlier posts from May, you know that one of the reasons I was so busy was that I was moving from my loft to a townhome in the Saint Matthews neighborhood here in Louisville. Even though it was a simple move about 15 minutes across town, I am always amazed at how much stuff I accumulate over the course of a year or two and all of the work it takes to clean out and box up. As exhausting as it can be, I love the chance to toss or donate things I no longer use and begin fresh. Because of this, the interior of my townhome is looking, well...empty. Knowing that Ryan and I will be sharing this townhome in about 4 months, I'm taking the summer as an opportunity to upgrade our hand-me-down furniture that we accumulated in college with some more "adult" pieces that will last us well into our marriage. This is a major work in progress, and I hope to have some updates for you all in a few months. Interior aside, one part of our townhome that I'm loving decorating is the outdoor living space! At my loft, I had a tiny balcony, but because of drainage problems, it was very hard to keep clean and usable. I crave spending time outdoors, even if it's just for 15 minutes reading a book, and with a very large dog, having some sort of fenced in outdoor space was number one on our list of needs. One of the main selling points of our townhome was its sizable patio with a tall privacy fence. However, when I first moved in, I was severely underwhelmed by the space. It was clear the last tenant didn't care too much about outdoor upkeep, and because the place had been empty for several weeks, weeds were starting to take over. The number one thing I wanted to get for the patio was a conversation set that I would be able to use for years. I searched for something that I felt was a blank canvas and would not quickly go out of style, could be used against multiple backdrops in case we buy a home, and most importantly, stayed under my budget of $400. I eventually selected this set from Wayfair because of the great reviews and the classic look of the teak wood. The set was delivered in literally less than 18 hours and only took my dad and I about an hour and a half to assemble. Next on the list was to take care of the landscaping, which involved filling an entire garbage bag with weeds and general brush. I love that our patio already has a well-established holly tree because to be honest, I don't have much of a green thumb. I selected several hostas to fill in some of the empty area, which my mother claims are basically fool proof, and a few things of lilyturf that will (hopefully) have some blue blooms later in the summer. I popped these in the ground, watched as Lou immediately trampled a few, and laid new mulch. Next up on the list is this half of the patio. It is currently home to a bench that my dad made me several years ago that I'm hoping to transform into an herb garden and a big empty space that seems perfect for a grill. More updates to come! If you need me, you can find me outside.

The famous temple of Muktinath lies in the district of Mustang. Muktinath is a pilgrimage place for both Buddhist and Hindu. It is situated 48 km north east of Jomsom at an altitude of about 3749 m. Its main shrine is a pagoda-shaped temple dedicated to lord Vishnu. Behind the temple there are 108 waterspouts cast in the shape of cow headed pour holy water. Here lots of pilgrimage takes bath from the ice-cold holy water. The temple is situated on a high mountain range. During the festival of Janai Purnima, Hindu devotees gather here to pay homage to lord Muktinath. Another famous temple of Jwaladevi, the goddess of flame, is situated about hundred meters south of Muktinath. There are two ways to get to Muktinath from Kathmandu. Either take a direct flight from Kathmandu via Pokhara to Jomsom, hike for a couple of hours via Kagbeni or trek all the way from Pokhara. There is also an air service from Pokhara to Jomsom. Pashupati is one of the four most important religious sites in Asia for Shiva devotees. The Pashupatinath Temple is the largest Hindu temple and is considered to be the holiest of all Hindu Temples. This is a two-tiered golden temple with four silver doorways, hundreds of Shiva linga's shrines and holy symbols. It is located on the holy river Bagmati, 6 km east of Kathmandu . Non- Hindus are not allowed into this temple. It is believed that this temple was built long before the Christian era begin. The Pashupati Temple was built in the fifth century and later renovated by Malla kings, Its original beauty still remains with the beautifully sculpted stone sculptures found here. Thousands of Hindus come each year on Shivaratri. Day 03 (Saturday): Pokhara - Jomsom by flight, Drive to Muktinath by Jeep, conduct pooja, darshan and back to Jomsom, stay at Hotel. Day 06 (Tuesday): Kathmandu - Pashupatinath - Guhewari - Swayambhunath - Bouddhanath - Kathmandu and overnight at Hotel.

New Red Sox manager Lou Boudreau took his place in Fenway Park on Dec. 1, 1951. Dom DiMaggio slid home with an inside-the-park home run against the White Sox on June 24, 1951. Ted Williams hung up his jersey for the final time before rejoining the US Marine Corps on April 30, 1952. Williams spoke to the crowd that day before reporting for military duty. When the Red Sox were snowed out on April 14, 1953, Mel Parnell pitched snowballs instead of baseballs. Boston University product Harry Agganis, left, debuted with a flash for the Red Sox in 1954, but died at age 26 the next year of a pulmonary embolism. Snow blanketed Fenway Park on this 1955 day. Fenway Park was full for Opening Day in 1956 against the Orioles. There was a wide swath of empty seats in left field on Aug. 11, 1956. Grounds crew workers laid down new turf in 1957. Ted Williams slid safely into second base in this game against Kansas City on July 25, 1957. Members of the Topsfield girls softball team attended a clinic sponsored by The Boston Globe on April 26, 1958. Pumpsie Green, second from right, with (from left) Frank Malzone, Don Buddin, and Pete Runnels, was the first black player to play for the Red Sox in 1959. Several thousand kids watched the May 12, 1959, game at Fenway Park as guests of The Boston Globe, Red Sox, and the auto dealers of Greater Boston. The seats were empty, but the Red Sox were in Fenway Park for batting practice on May 19, 1959.

I think there really is a time that you need to just let go. Not just of the steering wheel, although I remember my father scaring the piss out of us while doing so as he drove over bridges, but of the things we think we have control over. I say "think" for a reason. Making a plan or schedule is a great way to organize things but not often do they go exactly as intended. I also know that some people avoid thinking of their future and, because it is so uncertain, they shy away from creating anything resembling a road map to life. I'm getting better about that, myself. So, when David turned 15 1/2 years old this summer, we had a game plan. Take him out driving each weekend starting with parking lots and working our way up to the highway. Things went really well despite a hiccup or two that turned into learning experiences (for him and us.) If I have one thing going for me, it would be patience. That serves me well in life, work and this particular circumstance. Well, the weekly practice evaporated as David's weekend schedule was adjusted and, when he did get a chance to drive, he reverted to some earlier bad tendencies. After an incident where he ran a red light, drifted into a different lane after going through an intersection and changed lanes without checking his mirrors, we had to re-evaluate. We do try to maximize the time we do have with our busy child. It's astonishes us all the things he has to balance when it comes to school work (several AP and honors classes) and a recently begun workout program. We decided we needed to let go of the wheel. When you don't have control of a situation, sometimes the best thing to do is hand it over to someone else... A-1 Driving School. After 2 of his 3 two-hour sessions, I can see a little more confidence in him and I'm expecting that I will let him drive me to the store later today. I guess there was always a fear of letting go of the wheel. Despite watching my father do it (to the astonishment of his children), I knew there was a risk being taken. It was later that I noticed he had been bringing his knee up to hold the wheel steady. He wasn't really letting go but I have to say that my doing so may have been the best thing for my son. My oldest is 13, man...I know how you feel. I don't even want to think about him driving a vehicle. He can't even keep his room clean. I remember when I was learning to drive my mother constantly hitting "the brake" in the passenger seat. It was very disconcerting. I much preferred having my dad ride shotgun.

....on Saturday myself and 5 other lucky folk ventured over to Nethergill Farm (...just down the track/over the hill from me) for the first of their series of 'Wild Workshops' ...all about River life and conservation. Chris and Fi at Nethergill have created a beautiful environment to learn about and share the amazing work they are doing to create and promote sustainable farming here in the Uplands of the Yorkshire Dales. Take a look at their website (see 'links' below) for lots more details about what they offer, but the brand new Field Studies Centre, landscape and lovely hospitality was perfect for the workshop. Karen, doing an excellent job of supervising the willow bundling! Pip....a key member of the Nethergill team....and a great role model for swift river crossing.. ...the day really got my mind twirling, not only during the reflection/feedback time, but in the days since.... I spend a lot of time and energy considering the earth/soil and air, in my thinking and work, but I really don't give water, especially the becks and streams on the land I live and work on, enough of my detailed attention. Dan and Ed had SO much knowledge and motivation about their work to teach and share.......one particular thought I am going to expand on is how like a forest structure the river is...it needs rotting wood, leaves etc to create the optimum environment for its healthy abundance to be generated. So an excellent day...great learning, fab people, amazing location......i'll be back...'Peat' is next on the my list for Wild Workshops to attend at Nethergill...cant wait!

A new study out of Germany suggests music can cure the common cold. Radio DJs JJ and Nina of Denver’s 95.7 had strong reactions to the study. “Yah, so I'm hearing that music can help cure a cold, but I call slight BS on that, because I play music for a living and I’ve had this death cold that I got from my mom two weeks ago when I visited her," JJ says. The study found when people with colds listen to music, it increases the level of antibodies in their bodies, which boosts the immune system and helps decrease the level of stress hormone cortisol. "The pop music we play on 95.7 The Party makes you feel good; it's fun its bubbly," Nina says. She might be on to something. The study found both dance music and jazz music to be the most effective at healing the body. “I can imagine Enya ‘Sail Away with Me’ could be therapeutic," JJ says. The study also mentions listening to your favorite genre of music might do the trick, too. However, JJ is still not convinced. "Lots of fluids, eat more vegetables, lot less junk food, sleep more when I can,” says JJ of better cures for the cold. “Just resting for your body is going to be the best thing. It won't be anything you listen to I'm sorry."

The position upon which rests the main body of type characters. Typeface used for the main body of a publication. The continuous body copy of a page or book, as opposed to the headings. Type which has a heavy black appearance. The major piece of communication of the scope and intent of the task. The Design Brief should communicate a reasonably detailed plan of the document or project and may include printing specifications.

Capital or upper case letters. A description underneath an illustration. A symbol used in proof reading and markup to indicate an insertion. A single letter, punctuation mark or space used in type. Full colour printing or output is achieved using the four-colour process – a process in which three subtractive primary colours (Cyan, Magenta and Yellow) are combined with Black to mimic the full range of visible colours. In offset printing, for each page or set of pages, a piece of film and a printing plate is made for each of the four colours. Documents may also be printed in one, two or three ink colours – sometimes referred to as ‘spot colour’ printing. The appearance of type on the page, seen as a shade of grey. The ‘colour’ of type results from the amount of letter, word and line spacing. The more space, the paler the type will look.

A unit for measuring the width of printed matter, equal to the height of the type size being used. A unit of measurement equal to half an em and approximately the average width of typeset characters, used especially for estimating the total amount of space a text will require. Although one of a number of formats/standards, ePub is increasingly being accepted as the industry standard for eBook production. An extension of XML, it allows publishers to produce a single and interoperable digital file for use by different eBook devices. Any device on which eBooks can be read, including dedicated readers (Kobo,Kindle etc), tablets (iPad), smartphones, notebooks, laptops. In Australia the market is dominated by the Kindle followed by the Kobo. Type whose width is greater than normal. Also known as expanded type. Final artwork is the technically correct, accurately constructed, colour separated artwork which is ready for production. It includes production specifications such as colours used, trimming and folding and any special finishing requirements. The processes other than putting ink on paper which may also be carried out by a printing company. These include: folding, binding, hole punching, varnishing, laminating and foiling. Traditionally, a Font refers to a collection of all the characters of a particular size and style of typeface (ie. the complete alphabet of one size of typeface). For example, 10 point Arial is one of the family of typefaces from the Arial font. Page number or specific information repeated at the bottom of each page.

General term for any form of drawing, diagram, or photograph included within a piece of print. An illustration used in a document. It may be a photograph, a diagram, a graph or chart or a drawing. Name and address of the printer or publisher, along with the date and place of printing. The imprint page may also show the ISBN (International Standard Book Number) and other library cataloguing data. The editor and designer may also be listed. Small letters or figures usually printed on or below the baseline as for example in the chemical formula H20. Also known as subscript. A unique 13 digit machine-readable identification number which marks any book unmistakably. While every book needs an ISBN, not everything with an ISBN is a book because publishers often use ISBNs as general product identifiers for non-book product (eg calendars, dump bins etc). Australian agency is Thorpe-Bowker. Changed from 10 digits to 13 digits in January 2007. Letters which slope forward are called Italic. Spacing of words so that lines in a column of type are vertically aligned on the right as well as the left. The adjustment of space between characters so that part of one extends over the body of the next. Kerned letters produce uniform letter spacing, which closes up any excessive space between such combinations as VA and Te. Rows of dots or dashes used to guide the eye across the page. Used in tabular work, programs and tables of contents. Legibility describes the characteristics that enable a typeface or page to be read or deciphered. A legible typeface is one in which the character shapes are easily recognised and deciphered. Not all typefaces are legible. Pronounced “ledding”, the term refers to the spaces between lines of type. Traditionally the spaces were created by a strip of lead inserted between lines of metal type. Leading is usually measured in points. A distinctive image or arrangement of letters which proclaim the identity of, or are associated with, a product or organisation. When images and type are combined, the image is generally called a ‘logo’. When the identity consists only of letters, it is generally known as a ‘logotype’. Lower-case is also known as small letters. Indicated as l.c. Space between the text or illustrations and the edge of the page. The simplest (and cheapest) form of reproduction. Only two tones (colour values) exist – black and white. In printing, white is generally the colour of the sheet of paper, so only one printing plate is required. An example of monotone printing is a faxed page. Monotone reproduction is limited in its ability to reproduce photographic images well). The most common technology used for mass production printing. Offset printing starts to become economical per unit around 1000 copies. Last word of a paragraph that stands at the top of the following page by itself. To be avoided. The numbering of the pages in a book. The Pantone Matching System® is an industry standard colour matching system for the printing and publishing (including web) industries. A file format, created by Adobe Systems, typically used for saving documents that are comprised of more than a simple text element. PDFs allow for incorporation of images, graphs, hyperlinks, and other features and as such is sometimes used as final art. The format does not allow content to be edited or altered by the recipient. The unit of measurement used in typesetting. Used principally for measuring lines. One Pica equals 12 points. The standard unit for measuring type size and spacing, equal to about 0.35 mm. (72 points to the inch). A term which refers to the production stages of printing plate creation and proofing as a preparation for printing or output. The technology used to create the character on a sheet of paper has changed radically over the years. The Letter press printed using type which was cast or punched from metal. Ink was transferred by the raised metal type to the paper. The ink rollers only touched the top surfaces of the raised areas of the type. This is called relief printing. The Gravure process used a sunken or depressed surface in a metal plate to transfer ink images onto paper (the opposite of relief printing). Offset Lithography uses a thin, flat metal or paper plate to transfer ink to paper. The printed image is separated from the non-printed areas by a chemical method based on the principle that grease and water do not mix. Laser Computer printing is a further development of the photocopier which uses a laser to sensitise plain paper with tiny dots which make up the image or characters. The pattern of dots or pixels is stored in computer memory. This system lends itself to small operation desktop publishing and produces high quality results. An impression or visual reproduction made from film or digital artwork which is used to check the progress and accuracy of a document prior to printing. The type of proof may vary according to needs. Person who reads the type, checking it for spelling, punctuation and accuracy. Capable of being read and comprehended easily. The number of words on a page and therefore the number of pages in a book varies according to the typeface and point size selected. This combined with the amount of space between the lines and the area of the page used for type, will determine the size, appearance and readability of a publication. The fineness of detail of an image. In computer terms, resolution is related to the number of or density of pixels used to reproduce a digital image. Computer resolution is measured in dots-per-inch (dpi). For publishing, images for web work can be very low (72–96 dpi) but they need to be much higher for offset printing (300–600 dpi). Streaks of white spacing in the text, produced when spaces in consecutive lines of type coincide. To be avoided. Letters which stand up straight are called Roman. The Sans Serif letters do not have serifs or strokes. The name comes from the French word sans, meaning without. Arial, Helvetica and Verdana are all examples of Sans Serif typefaces. The serif letter has short cross strokes that project from the ends of the main strokes of a character. The short stroke is called a serif. It is generally thought that typefaces with serifs are more readable when used in extended passages of text. Bookman, Garamond and Times New Roman are all examples of Serif typefaces. A proofreader’s mark, written in the margin, signifying that copy marked for corrections should remain as it was. Small letters or figures usually printed above the main character as for example in the unit m2. Also known as superscript. Information set out in columns. Right hand page at the front of a book that bears the title, the names of the author and publisher, and sometimes the place of publication and other relevant information. Not the cover of a book. A typeface is a set of characters which share a common design. For example, the Times typeface was designed by an Englishman, Stanley Morison in 1931 for use in the Times newspaper. He created a face which, in small sizes, can be easily read in columns of newsprint. For this reason, it is still in common use today. Most type terminology comes from the original setting in metal type. Many hundreds of typefaces exist and are continually being designed, of which only about twenty are used with any regularity for books. The height of type is most commonly measured in points (abbreviated pt). A point is approximately 0.35 mm. Be aware that type sizes (eg. 12 points) in one typeface may not appear exactly the same size as another typeface. This is because, in traditional metal type, the type character was placed on a metal block. The point size applied to the height of the block, not the character. The visual height of the characters could vary within the block area. The art, general design and appearance of printed material using type. Upper-case letters are also known as capital letters. Indicated as caps. A high end publishing industry computer based illustration method in which the shapes are described as mathematical points in space rather than pixels. This makes the image scalable without any loss of sharpness or detail. Only certain types of printing devices can utilise this format. Also known as a ‘dummy’ or ‘progressive’. Sketches or samples of the work prepared before printing which show the progressive development of the design and layout of a document. Visuals may be presented as printouts or in digital form. A popular form of digital visual is Adobe’s Acrobat format which can be emailed and viewed on screen. In book work, a binder’s dummy is a set of blank sheets of paper bound as in the final document to establish the exact dimensions. Unoccupied space on the page. A desirable characteristic. A widow is a very short line – usually one word, or the end of a hyphenated word – at the end of a paragraph or column. A widow is considered poor typography because it leaves too much white space between paragraphs or at the bottom of a page.

but maybe not the last memory I have to bear. and cried through the smiles I threw. Three years ago little did I know, how it is in life with you and me. Three years hence now I know, how is it in life without you and me. I wrote poems and soulful pleas, asking you to let me be. I cried nights on wet pillows, wondering what it was to me. just like one of my anklets you pilfered while I looked away. were but mere words in your moments of truth. while my hand trembled with the fear to lose you at all. what was I to you in your two-part world? then why is it that I never felt so? because maybe you never told me so. a life that was ours to be. a burden that was yours to be. an ordeal to just hold on. Taught me like a teacher. Touched me like a shiver. And I was yours ever since. You were my night, my day, my everything. the bangle from my wrist. like I heard your voice from the inside of a jar. I breathed your name with every breath. I dreamt of you in every dream. I thought of you in every moment. I imagined you on me long after you were gone. I smelled your fragrance when you weren’t around. I sensed your touch on things you used. I felt your warmth holding me through. I loved you in ways I never knew. and here I am, willing to walk that path again. 7 Comments on "Without You" I am also very happy to pick the poem you threw………. lovely imagery , lovely write…..very new and own styling. Dear Sonia, read and read again your wonderful poem, tried to feel the pain, tried to re-live those moments along with you, how it feels to be without that special someone in one’s life, …..your touched my soul……. Beautiful that came from the heart. you are willing to walk it again. May this time it be true. God Bless You. Really after reading your poem Sonia, I got reminireminiscences which I have spend with my dear one but alas pain is still there and your poem makes me feel at that moment of life! Marvellous one I must say and even I have also written on pain -‘The Rue of Separation’ with such a heavy heart like you! A trajectory of never ending love! You penned every detail beautifully.

Here is a new video that came out supposedly showing a strange object in the woods. The discoverer believes it could be evidence of Bigfoot. Corny music aside, this is just another example of quest to find proof of the unexplained in everything. In the video the poster shows how the object can only be seen from one angle. Move forward or backward one step and it mysteriously disappears. Does this mean this is some strange creature that can only be seen from one angle… Probably not. It is much more likely we are looking at a dark shadowed area through a gap in the woods. The fact is there is nothing compelling here at all. We can’t see a very defined shape and the shape itself is inconsistent with a humanoid creature. What can be interpreted as arms and legs and different sizes and end abruptly. The supposed Bigfoot shows no texture or fur. It should also be noted that the poster has made a name for himself publishing a variety of of such videos. This seems like more of a cry for attention than a credible attempt to prove the existence of Bigfoot. But the real crime here is these types of claims serve to discredit the field of paranormal investigators. These are the public image of those who investigate claims of the paranormal. Between the work of skeptics and those that see evidence in everything, our field suffers a huge credibility shortfall.

It is one of the most unique places in Florence, with a one of a kind collection of self-portraits from the 16th century. BARDINI GARDENS – It has three sections: a great baroque flight of steps, fringed with irises. It ascends to a belvedere and with expansive views of Florence, an English garden with its Channel of the Dragon and a farming area with almost-medieval hillside terraces planted with olive trees. OFFICINA PROFUMA FARMACEUTICA DI SANTA MARIA NOVELLA – It is one of the oldest pharmacies in the world. A BORSALINO PANAMA HAT – stylish and iconic.

At Stephenson Disability Services, we are a local firm that you will be able to conveniently call or visit about your case. It is true that Social Security Disability is a national program, with uniform rules across the country.

We actively get to know you and your disability to give you the best chance of success in SSDI/SSI appeals, and we always have a knowledgeable professional on hand to talk to you. We provide Social Security Disability services throughout Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio. After attending Indiana University, Donna Stephenson joined the Social Security Administration at age 22. She served in a number of positions within the agency, including technical and managerial positions. She was selected as a charter member of the training center for claims representatives in the Chicago Region, and received numerous awards for her job performance throughout her career with Social Security. In 1990, as a part of a downsizing initiative, she retired from her supervisory position with the agency. After a short pause, with 26 years of Social Security experience behind her, Donna Stephenson established a practice to represent disabled persons in their claims and appeals before the Social Security Administration. That practice continues today, known as Stephenson Disability Services, Inc.

I've made a significant progress since A1 To download B1, check the OP. For the extremely limited feedback I've received for the Alpha, it is time to go for the Beta. The gameplay is fast and very good and I'm happy about it. Well, this is a 1on1 to 2on2 map. Far LOS is good in this case because you have to be accurate, precise in your aiming to make damage. Also, the visuals are so ugly, it doesn't help lol! I think just breaking LOS with structures to fight around in the middle of the open areas would help a lot. Think the courtyard in chill I guess, but that's a basic example and I'm sure you can be more creative. Those larger areas are the basic locations for engagement. Also maybe chocking a bit more between them? Let me try it out again before you take that too seriously though, I'll get back to you with a vid. Is it meant to be a deathmatch map primarily?

When you find yourself reaching for a snack—WAIT! Are you really even hungry? Or are you simply eating out of habit? Next time you find yourself gravitating toward a junk food fix do a short burst of physical activity instead. A dozen jumping jacks, 15 crunches, a walk around the block… you get the idea! By the time your heart rate returns to normal you will find that your craving has passed—and not only did you save yourself from empty calories, you burned extra calories as well! 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly grease 6 (8oz) ramekins with olive oil and place on a rimmed baking sheet. 2. In a medium skillet add the olive oil, shallots, sea salt and black pepper over medium heat for 4 minutes. Add the smoked salmon and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. 3. Divide the salmon mixture between the 6 ramekins. 4. In a large bowl combine the eggs, egg whites, coconut cream and half of the chives. Whisk until fully blended. Divide the egg mixture between the 6 ramekins. 5. Bake for 35 minutes, or until fully set. Garnish with the remaining chives. Enjoy!

In mid-July, the host of a popular Brazilian television show, reportedly was the victim of a hacker who stole thousands of Brazilian Reals from her bank account. She’s not alone. As we come to rely on technology in virtually all aspects of our lives, criminals are continually on the lookout for new opportunities to steal our money, intellectual property or identities. And cybercrime knows no borders; every device connected to the Internet is a potential entry point. In recent years, Internet use has grown faster in Latin America than in any other region in the world. And as Internet use has grown across the region, so has cybercrime; Latin America has seen significant increases in data breaches, banking Trojans, mobile malware, and other online threats. According to a recent survey by Grant Thornton, 11 percent of the businesses in Latin America were hit by a cyber-attack in the past 12 months. Cybercrime is especially common in Brazil, to the point that it has been described as “at the epicenter of a global cybercrime wave.” The country now ranks second, behind Russia, as the source for online banking fraud and financial malware. The number of cyber-attacks in Brazil grew by 197 percent in 2014 and online banking fraud increased by 40 percent. It has also been reported that about USD 3.75 billion has been hacked since 2012 from a popular payment method used throughout Brazil. Cyber-attacks are a particular risk for small- and medium-sized companies. In Brazil, for example, a recent study showed that close to two-thirds of the cyber-attacks were directed at small companies. While small businesses may not offer a big payday for cyber attackers, they often are not well protected – given a choice between “big and difficult” and “small and easy,” many cyber criminals are attracted to the latter opportunity. This is especially challenging for small businesses in the current economic climate where spending on “non-core” activities, like cyber security, has to be managed extremely carefully. Other countries in the region have also experienced significant cyber-attacks. Criminals in Mexico, for example, were apparently the first to discover how to reverse-engineer ATM software and create an interface that allows them to interact with the machine; in effect, to get a machine to discharge all of its cash. Businesses and consumers throughout the region have also witnessed a surge in ransom ware attacks where criminals seize a user’s data, encrypt it, and then demand a payment to decrypt it. The most prominent ransomware in use currently is not possible to break. In the past, collecting the ransom and avoiding detection was the hard part. Today, with online currencies like Bitcoin, this is no longer a problem. Almost all businesses that rely on the Internet in some fashion are vulnerable to a cyberattack, and the list of threats is long: malware to steal sensitive or confidential information; ransomware attacks; social media scams; banking Trojans and heists. However, there are a number of prudent steps companies can take to lessen their vulnerability to a cyber-attack. First and foremost is to recognize that cybersecurity is not an IT issue, it’s a management problem. All employees using a device connected to the Internet should recognize that they bear some responsibility for keeping the company secure. Training is also important, including training in incident response. Companies that rely heavily on the Internet should periodically map their vulnerabilities and define their tolerance for cyber risk. Finally, companies should consider how they could respond in the event of a cyber-attack. While the threat may seem remote, having a contingency plan in place, “just in case,” can greatly minimize the financial and reputational costs of a cyber-attack. Although cybercrime is a relatively new phenomenon, insurers in Latin America have developed a range of coverages to help companies manage and mitigate this risk. These policies typically cover data breaches involving financial, customer, employee or other proprietary data as well as any type of cyber-attack that disrupts a company’s operations. Even though the threat is fairly new, cyber insurance is quickly becoming quite sophisticated. In many cases the policies also cover: business interruption expenses; data recovery costs; cyber extortion demands; and defense costs, including any penalties or fines that are assessed. In addition, cyber insurance often extends to outsourced providers, including cloud providers, and to both online and offline content. And when an attack occurs, the coverage typically includes access to leading firms that specialize in neutralizing the breach, and helping the company navigate what is often a very delicate situation. Cybercrime is obviously a particular concern to technology companies providing IT products and services. Products manufacturers and software developers have to ensure their solutions are not vulnerable to cyber-attacks. And service providers have to ensure that their solutions don’t compromise a client’s proprietary data, including intellectual property. For businesses involved in these areas, cyber insurance can also include product liability and professional indemnity coverage that covers legal costs incurred in defending a claim, as well as any damages that are awarded. Many government agencies and private companies across Latin America are taking concrete steps to combat cybercrime. Solutions to protect data networks and servers continue to become more sophisticated and harder to breach. Cybersecurity resources are being enriched; more than 200 cybersecurity specialists will be contracted with, for example, to protect public and private sites during the upcoming 2016 Olympics. Still, the surge in cybercrime is not expected to abate – even as defenses are strengthened, criminals will still find ways to exploit vulnerabilities residing in obscure corners of the Internet. With this type of ongoing risk, companies should take some prudent, common sense precautions to minimize the threat, and consider the option of transferring some of this risk via insurance.

Jackson: Record sales surge - 9jabook & Tweeterest Digital Network ! Michael Jackson's sales have instantly seen a massive increase as a result of his death. This morning, Jackson's albums had taken 14 of the top 20 places on the Amazon.co.uk sales chart - even though his commercial appeal which had been largely in the doldrums for years as his strange private life overshadowed his music. The lack of new material for many years also contributed to the public indifference, although this started to reverse as Jacko fever began to grip following the announcement of his record-breaking run of O2 shows. Today the Amazon chart was topped by his first solo album, Off The Wall, which features tracks such as Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough and She's Out Of My Life. It was followed by his 1987 album Bad and in third position was Thriller, the biggest selling album of all time, with global sales estimated anywhere between 50 million and 100 million due to the vagaries of how album sales were counted historically. In fact, a further two copies of Thriller figure in the top 20, which also features an array of compilations of his material, including the recently released King Of Pop at number eight. Jackson's most recent studio album, Invincible, is at nine, demonstrating the overwhelming interest in his heritage, rather than his later recordings. Gennaro Castaldo of retailer HMV said: "We always find where a great icon dies that there's a massive uplift in their music sales as fans want to connect and express their grief through the records. "We've seen this with people like John Lennon, Elvis, Johnny Cash and Frank Sinatra over the years. With Michael Jackson in particular, he was just on the cusp of a big comeback anyway and we were already beginning to see a lift in sales. Now, with downloads and the instant access they give, we can probably expect the charts to light up with his songs. "The official top 10 and 20 could be dominated by his tracks and we will probably find the album charts will have high entries for Thriller and King Of Pop over the coming days because his music has not only an army of fans but also a broad appeal."

On behalf of Dean Standish Perkins of Dean Standish Perkins & Associates posted in Train Accidents on Wednesday, May 23, 2018. Car accidents may be more common than train accidents, but both can lead to devastating loss. The force of a train accident is frequently fatal. Trains use extremely powerful engines to move heavy freight, which means that they are also difficult to stop in an emergency. Washington state reports that there have been 5 train accident fatalities so far this year, 3 of which took place in Seattle. In 2017, 29 people suffered lethal train accidents. These incidents happened both at designated crossings and other areas along the rail. 2018 does not have to contain as many train accidents as 2017. Instead, this could be the year that drivers and pedestrians start to take extra caution around railroads to prevent accidents whenever possible. These victims are beloved children, dutiful spouses, family providers and admired community members. In tragedies like these, their loved ones may pursue a wrongful death claim on their behalf. In some cases, a regulation or traffic signal was missing from the equation. Although a lawsuit can never restore what was lost, family members often find justice and support through the legal system.

Have you ever had an unusually vivid dream that was set in another time and place? Perhaps you saw yourself sitting in a horse-drawn carriage, wearing a high-necked, long dress that resembled the Victorian style from the 1800s. If you had the feeling upon waking that the dream was as real as your waking life, then you most likely witnessed a scenario from a past life. How do you know if it's a past-life dream? Invariably, the clothing, environment, buildings and other elements look historic. Most important, there's a life-like quality about this kind of dream that makes a deep impression on you long afterward. So why would you have such a dream? A past-life dream will come to you to shed light on issues you're dealing with now, issues that have their roots from a past life. The characters in the dream are usually people you're involved with in your present life. If you have some karma to work out with someone close to you, you may dream about a past life together so you can better understand the dynamic in your relationship - and move on. For instance, if you can't comprehend why you immediately disliked your sister's boyfriend, you may dream that you were unhappily married in the distant past, which will hopefully help you forgive each other and end the cycle of animosity. In the dream, I am a southern cavalry trooper embroiled in a skirmish. There is a brick home with a grass lawn and an orchard off to one side. There are not large numbers of soldiers or bodies in the dream, only a few mounted Confederate troopers and the remnants of a passing battle. I am on my horse with saber drawn, riding from the orchard across the lawn by a corner of the home, in the direction of a clothesline hung with white linen. Suddenly, an exploding cannon round unhorses me and I land on the ground, semi-stunned and wounded in the hip. From behind the sheets, this woman from my past appears. We look at each other for a moment, then recognize each other. She then picks up a discarded rifle with bayonet and tries repeatedly to bayonet me while I am laying on the ground. I fend off the thrusts with my saber, when another exploding cannon shell mortally wounds her and she falls to the ground. I drag the both of us from the lawn, around a corner of the home and out of the conflict. I cradle her head in my lap and stare into her eyes. She says repeatedly to not ever leave her and that she "loves me." She then dies while I am holding her in my arms. I immediately awoke, jolted upright, out of breath and on the verge of tears. The dream was extremely vivid, complete with the sound and smells of a battle taking place on a sunny spring morning. Everything in the dream appeared to be historically accurate and complete, from her red and white hound's-tooth dress with petticoats, to the yellow trim on my faded grey uniform. I dated this woman over 27 years ago and I am the one who broke it off. I did try to contact her some five or six years ago, to no avail (her decision). I have not had a repeat of this same dream or anything similar. What's so fascinating about this dream is the woman's conflicted feelings about William. She tried to kill him and then professes she loves him. Whether or not this scene happened literally as described in the dream doesn't change the dream's message, which is to reveal the complex karmic tie between William and the woman - his ex-girlfriend. The dream came to William to help him resolve any lingering negative feelings he may have for her. Additionally, on a symbolic level, the dream may be mirroring William's inner battle over this relationship, or about love in general. Past-life dreams help clarify what's happening in your life. They can explain why a relationship is so difficult, or why you're enmeshed in a challenging situation (karma!). This knowledge can help you resolve the past so you can move forward with increased freedom to a more fulfilling life - this time around.

Andrew Culver: Canadian, IT Guy, Gamer, Political Junkie, Hockey Fan, Geek; not necessarily in that order. Local radio personality Andrew Lawton has recently been put on leave in response to complaints about comments made on his show on AM980 earlier this week. Today I sent the following letter to Andrew's manager, Nathan Smith, standing up to support Andrew and call for him to be put back on the air. It is a common tactic of the left to feign indignation and call someone a bigot or a racist when they're losing an argument. It's much easier to silence someone by attacking them, than it is to engage in the debate. Andrew Lawton brings an essential voice to debate in London. He brings attention to countless important issues within our city, our province, and across Canada. I have heard many times from others listeners, while they may not agree with him, they tune in just to hear the debate and his take on the topics being discussed. I listened to Andrew's show when he was talking about the survey carried out by Emerging Leaders about whether the LGBT community feels safe in London. I didn't hear anything in this show that could be taken as offensive from what he said. He noted some statistics which gave context to the discussion which were entirely reasonable, and apropos. There were even several admittedly gay callers who agreed with what Andrew was saying. It's feigned indignation and complaints coming from those who wish to silence Andrew Lawton, rather than join the debate that we're seeing now. They're trying to label Andrew as a bigot and have him taken off the airwaves. Giving into them would be a mistake. Andrew Lawton has raised the reputation of AM980, bringing national attention to the station by hosting interviews with Justin Trudeau and Prime Minster Harper. His show has become a centre of debate for London politics, just recently drawing the city's attention to conflicts of interest among councillors and the political back scratching at city hall. Andrew speaks the truth and brings character to AM980. I urge you to bring back Andrew Lawton and not give into this feigned indignation. I urge readers to stand with Andrew Lawton, and contact Nathan Smith <nsmith@am980.ca>, asking Andrew to be put back on the air. The average age of retirement for Police Service and Fire Service employees is 53 in most Ontario cities. A city employee retiring under the OMERS pension plan with a salary of $48,000 will have made $50,000 in pension contributions, but will receive total pension payments of $960,000. In 2002, only 25 city employees, including 6 police officers, earned over $100,000. In 2012, 393 city employees, including 191 police officers, earned over $100,000. There are over 25 employees on track to earn pensions in excess of $100,000 the first year of retirement.

Some things are sacred. No, I’m not talking about the Monopoly Free Parking Rule, which, in my family, has never once been challenged by living room quorum in my near 30 years as sibling senator. Sure, there have been rumblings of appeals over the years, specifically The Marvin Gardens Massacre of ’93 that left two of my siblings in bankruptcy and one in diapers (to be fair he was already wearing them, but still). [clears throat, blows pitch-pipe] And the hotel’s red glare, the banker bursting into tears, gave proof through the power outage that our Free Parking jackpot was still there. I digress. I’m talking about one of the most sacred family institutions since shared Netflix passwords: dinnertime. In our household, dinnertime is a cherished sacrament of bread breaking, fellowship, and- No, don’t throw your spoon. We don’t throw our spoon on the floor. Um, I don’t think she likes apples. She keeps… What did I say about throwing your spoon? Do we have anything other than apples? No, don’t grab daddy’s plate. Can we…. No! Don’t do that! Is there a Get Out of Dinner Free card? I never understood the free parking jackpot thing. It’s called ‘free’ for a reason – not ‘jackpot’ parking. I still get very confused when I’m playing at someone’s house and they roll that rule out there. You mean you’ve never come back to your un-metered parking space to find $820 pinned to your wipers? I guess I’m just really lucky. Thank you! Use it wisely (at the most inappropriate times possible).

Their comments helped to sharpen my thinking and reconsider my argument. Here’s the new version, straight from the brand-new Education Gadfly. I’ll post it here in full for your convenience. Be forewarned: It’s going to take me a while to get to my main argument. I hope you agree it’s worth the wait. For going on two decades now, the twin movements to expand parental choice and foster accountability have been the major drivers of reform in the K-12 education system. And while choice and accountability can be seen as ends in themselves, for many reformers they have been primarily means: tactics for creating a high-performing education system, one that puts the needs of kids over the needs of adults. They are tonics meant to overcome the corrupting influence of complacency and protectionism within our public schools. This brand of reform diagnoses the school system’s disease as primarily political rather than structural, behavioral, or attitudinal. It’s not that educators don’t work hard enough, or care passionately enough, or know enough. It’s that organized interests have a stranglehold on the system, creating incentives for managers at all levels to avoid making the hard decisions that are necessary for any organization to thrive. Most obviously, union contracts and civil service rules make it next to impossible to fire low-performers, whether they be central office bureaucrats, principals, teachers, or aides. And this creates an insidious cycle of cynicism that permeates the schools. Enter choice and accountability. The theory of change goes something like this: Offer parents and their children real options outside the (unionized) public schools. Attach public dollars to the kids so that the money leaves the bureaucracy. Grow enough options so that the outflow of kids and money is large enough to get the attention of the district, and to cause real pain for the union (as the number of teachers–and union members–shrinks). At the same time, hold districts accountable from the state and federal levels, by making their (bad) results transparent and forcing them to adopt meaningful (and unpleasant) reforms in their failing schools. The combination of competitive pressures from below, and accountability pressures from above, will create a new political environment, one in which unions and civil servants have no real alternative but to accept reform instead of oppose it—out of sheer self-interest. And finally, after this long and circuitous route, districts will adopt critical changes, such as those that make it much easier to remove ineffective teachers (or principals or staff) from their jobs. And managers, newly empowered, will take bold action to weed out the low-performers and usher in a new era of excellence and accountability. Sounds great, but how has this theory turned out in practice? Not so well. For instance, ten cities boast a charter school “market share” of greater than twenty percent, places like Detroit, Kansas City, and Dayton, which means that their districts have lost loads of kids and cash and teachers. And these districts are also subject to NCLB-style accountability from on high. But to date, their unions and central office staff aren’t exactly burning a path to reform’s door. But it turns out that DC is the exception and not the rule. It is unique in one very important way: It is a city without a state. And, as we learned in the National Council on Teacher Quality’s report, Invisible Ink, many of the key policies that protect teachers and create complacency are enshrined in state law, not in district contracts. The NCTQ authors write, “State law dictates how often teachers must be evaluated, when teachers can earn tenure, the benefits they’ll receive, and even the rules for firing a teacher.” The Washington contract could address these issues because they weren’t already buttoned-up in state policy. All of this helps to explain why “teacher accountability” is now the reformer’s primary rallying cry—and why the battle is primarily being fought at the state, rather than district, level. After twenty years it’s become clear that choice and accountability are necessary but not sufficient to create the conditions for high-performing systems. They were too indirect; now it’s time to tackle teacher tenure and evaluations head-on. And that means fighting the unions in committee rooms in state capitals. That’s what we’re seeing in Florida, with the far-reaching bill just vetoed by Governor Crist. That’s what we’re seeing in Colorado, with a bold proposal just released by state senator and uber-reformer Mike Johnston. And that’s what we could see nationwide if states were willing to step up to the Race to the Top’s challenge for meaningful teacher accountability. But reformers shouldn’t expect this to be beanbag. In Florida, the unions have pulled out all the stops, and managed to get the Democratic caucus in the state legislature to more or less march in lockstep against the proposed changes. This same caucus split 50-50 when it came to expanding the Sunshine State’s private school choice program, demonstrating that teacher reform is now more radioactive than vouchers. Tackling tenure and related reforms will be a fight to the finish, but after two decades of preliminaries, it’s about time for the main event. May the good guys win.

This year, Bike Wise Week will run from Saturday 23 February to Sunday 2 March 2008. The nationwide campaign, managed by Land Transport New Zealand, with the support of the Ministry of Health, aims to encourage cycling for both transport and recreation. For more information, go to http://www.bikewise.co.nz/ . Most of my experience as one of the lobbied has of course been as a member of Parliament. But I'm sure the key points to make about lobbying are pretty much universal, whether we're talking about local politicians, local or national government officials, other relevant organisations, or even to some degree the media. Probably the simplest and most useful way to approach the topic is to look at what is good effective lobbying. Rotorua bosses may have to provide showers and cycle racks and subsidise workers' bus fares if a new transport strategy takes off. Employers will be encouraged to promote alternative transport to reduce the number of cars on local roads. Encouraging cycling, walking and greater use of public transport into the city are among a range of innovative plans the Rotorua District Council has outlined in its Rotorua Transport Demand Management strategy. The Cycling Advocates’ Network (CAN) is saddened by the death of Christchurch City Councillor and former paralympian Graham Condon in a cycling accident in suburban Christchurch last Saturday. The driver of the car striking Councillor Condon was 15 years old and appears to have lost control of her car. The group will be handing out freshly-cooked toast to motorists, cyclists and pedestrians at the busy inner city intersection of Lichfield and Manchester Streets, along with information leaflets stating that "Toast Is Fuel!” and outlining the benefits of toast compared with petrol.

Not to diss on these countries, China and Australia but once you know what the names of these countries mean, their names aren't really too special. also, not to mention the Central African Republic. I would say Japan (Nihon) too but it's not so bad. It means "land of the rising sun" or place of the sun's origin. Regardless, they are nice names though. I like the Greek words for Greece, "Ελλάς" (in latin letters it is something like "Ellas"), and "Ελλάδα" ("Ellada"). In particular I like the first one. I agree, its Greek name sounds better than its names in most other languages (Greece/Grecia/Gretsiya etc.). I also think the same for Finland, Suomi sounds better than Finland/Finlandia etc. I prefer Hellas. Greece sounds too much like a muscial.

Your System Security Plan (SSP) and Plan of Actions and Milestones (POAM) are Necessary for DFARS Compliance. According to the U.S. Department of Defense, “Plans of Action (and Milestones), continuous monitoring and the System Security Plan (NIST SP 800-171 Security Requirements 312.2-3.12.4)” must be used to address DFARS compliance. It's likely that your prime or the DoD itself will request your documents for new bids. They'll likely “incorporate the System Security Plan (SSP) and Plan of Action into the contract” itself.

The Iron have signed Gainsborough Trinity winger Terry Hawkridge on a one-year deal. Hawkridge attracted the attention of scouts high up the football ladder during his short spell at Trinity and his rise up through the divisions has been striking. He jumped two divisions from Carlton to Gainsborough via Hucknall and has now leaped two more, signing a one-year deal with Scunthorpe. The 23-year-old wideman, who can play all across the midfield, joins after impressing during his year-long stay at the Northolme. With the player being under 24, a fee will be agreed for his services.

I would like to offer quotes from those around me regarding my knitting frenzy of late. All I know is that for some reason knitting makes my family say the most patently absurd things ever. Try this from the DD – Are you sure you are knitting, that is making it smaller? (said while I am tinking stitches to figure out how on earth I added one) She survived the comment, but things may have been icy for an hour or so afterwards. It also turns out no one can wait till the end of this row…not even a little row. That they all find it amusing when I try to count. In fact it is even better if they throw out random numbers while I am counting. That having knitting stuff anywhere where they can be seen with it by someone NOT an immediate family member is high torture. Sigh. Clearly you see what I am fighting here. I think the hardest thing is that I do so many other crafts they are all slightly agog that I would even think about taking on another one. What they do not get is that this is the one I have coveted. I have always wanted to do this. I just couldn’t. Until now. Now I am admiring the work that I do, and I see so much potential here…. Anyhow….Look, see here… First booties (I am pretty sure I will eventually get over the first thing) and these are just so clever. They make me want to practice seaming 🙂 AND they go with an adorable sweater of shich there will be pictures as soon as it is dry. These are from knit simple and would not exist if there werent a beautiful picture by picture tutorial in there…..

Amazingly, women the world over seem to have an irrational fear of stripes. I'm not sure what that's all about, but it's time for a change. I thought this would be as good a time as ever to discuss the topic, especially since I've teamed up with Citizen Watches and we're looking to impart stylish advice this summer. With that in mind, we've put together four ways to wear stripes this summer. Below, you'll find stripe on stripe, dress stripes, skirt pairing and wearing your stripes in the palm of your hand. There's a little something for everyone depending on your comfort level with the legendary stripe. As well as a guest appearance from the world famous Pepper Pomeranian, you'll also find I'm wearing the new Drive by Citizen watch in all the outfits. I've said it once and I'll say it again - a watch is just as important an accessory as any other and we're loving this stylish mix of medals for the Citizen Drive AML. For look one I went a little crazy with stripe on stripe. Don't be afraid to mix your stripes just as you would your patterns. It's all about taking risks and seeing how it turns out. This combination of stripes is perfectly paired with the different colors and widths of stripe. Is it just me or am I saying "stripe" a lot? Nature of the game, I guess. I paired the look with a colour pop bag and a chunky necklace to give it a bit of an "umph." For look two, I let the wide stripe do all the talking. Anyone checking out catwalks for the past few spring summers will know that the wide stripe has found a permanent place in the heart of fashion. Designers love a simple stripe for a daytime look. It's an easy piece to throw on and accessorize. Just make sure the stripes aren't too wide. There is some truth to stripes making you look wider, so keep these to a not-too-wide width. Again, accessories are key. I went with a bright heel and matching necklace and bag to keep things seasonal. Look three was so good it attracted the photographer's beautiful Pomeranian, Pepper. In truth, this is a combination of some of my favourite items from my closet. You can borrow your boyfriend's striped shirt for the top. Just make sure to do a firm tie in the front (and tuck if you have excess fabric you're working with). Then throw on either a high waisted pencil skirt or an A-line figure to really emphasize the waist. Look four can't be more simply. It's all about carrying your stripes in the palm of your hand. The stripe trend has carried through to shoes, jewelry, bags and even dog collars. Here I carry a striped clutch that plays against floral trousers and a denim shirt. All very simple with the pattern pairing. Just remember - try it all. You never know what combination will come out looking like it took inspiration directly from Vogue Magazine! FFG worked in collaboration with Citizen Watches. All photos courtesy of the very talented Terence Webb.

Considered the ‘father of pop music in Norway’, Arne Bendiksen started his career in music as a member of the group The Monn Keys in the 1950s; later, he made his mark as a solo singer as well. From the 1960s onwards, he focused on song writing and producing, for example for his main protégés in the 1960s, Wenche Myhre and Kirsti Sparboe; he formed a record company of his own in 1964. Amongst the most famous songs he composed are ‘Jeg vil ha en blå ballong’ and ‘La meg være ung’; this last song was sung by Wenche Myhre in the 1964 Norwegian Eurovision pre-selection. Ironically enough, this pre-selection was won by… Bendiksen himself; he performed a song written by Sigurd Jansen and Egil Hagen called ‘Spiral’. Bendiksen went on to represent his native country in the contest proper of 1964 in Copenhagen, where he came eight; his conductor that night was Karsten Andersen. In the 1960s and 1970s, Bendiksen participated in the Norwegian heats as a composer on countless occasions; his creations won in 1966 (‘Intet er nytt under solen’, sung in the Eurovision Song Contest by Åse Kleveland, third place), 1969 (‘Oj, oj, oj så glad, jeg skal bli’, sung in the contest by Kirsti Sparboe, sixteenth place), 1971 (‘Lykken er’, sung in the contest by Hanne Krogh, seventeenth place), and 1973 (‘It’s just a game’, sung in the contest by The Bendik Singers, seventh place). In 1971, there was nobody available to conduct the Eurovision orchestra for Norway; that is why Arne Bendiksen, although he had not written the orchestration and did not feel confident at all about his conducting skills, had to do it himself.

Itachi debuts in Part I after the death of the Third Hokage, Konoha's protector, by infiltrating the village with Kisame. After drawing the attention of Konoha's forces Itachi reveals that, as part of Akatsuki's goal to capture the nine powerful tailed beasts, they are after Naruto Uzumaki for the nine-tailed demon fox sealed within him. During a scuffle with Konoha's ninja they discover that Naruto has left the village, and upon tracking him down find that he is under the protection of Jiraiya. Itachi sets up a distraction to draw Jiraiya away from Naruto and the two try to capture him. Sasuke, having heard that Itachi was back, intervenes, and Jiraiya soon returns as well. After briefly tormenting Sasuke for still being weak, Itachi and Kisame leave to avoid capture by Jiraiya. After Itachi's death in Part II, this entire visit to Konoha is revealed to have only been to make sure that the Third's death did not cause Konoha to forget their vow to protect Sasuke. Itachi makes a brief appearance at the start of Part II, distracting Naruto and the rest of his team while Akatsuki seals one of the tailed beasts it has captured. Later, Itachi learns that Sasuke has absorbed Orochimaru, a man who defected from Konoha for in order to get strong enough to kill Itachi. Knowing that a stronger Sasuke is now coming for him, Itachi meets with Naruto. After his death he is revealed to have given some of his power to Naruto to be used to protect Sasuke and Konoha in case Sasuke ever attacks the village. Sasuke ultimately tracks him down and they have their final battle, during the course of which he uses his Mangekyo Sharingan to push Sasuke to his limits. In doing so, Orochimaru is drawn out from Sasuke's body, and Itachi seals him away to keep him from Sasuke before he dies of disease. As his final act, Itachi implants his Amaterasu within Sasuke, meant as a failsafe that would kill Madara in case he ever approached Sasuke. Since this surprises Sasuke, Madara explains the truth of Itachi's past, what is claimed to be an unfounded mistrust of Madara, and that, even though Itachi had been dying of disease, he kept himself alive with drugs so that he could die by Sasuke's hands. Now knowing his long-hated brother to have led a tragic life because of Konoha's orders, Sasuke resolves to destroy the village, even though Itachi had gone to lengths to protect it.

The exhibition of American and European Painting presents the work of John Casilear, Arthur Dove, John McCrady, Granville Perkins, Arthur Davies, Everett Shinn, Henry Hutchinson Shaw, Jules Charles Rozier, Henri Eugene Le Sidaner, Henri Manguin, Pierre August Renoir, Pierre Bonnard, Jean Dufy, Camille Corot, Adolphe J. T. Monticelli, Jean Joseph Vaudechamp, Julius Caesar Ibbetson, John Wesley Jarvis, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Sir Godfrey Kneller, Alessandro Varotari among others. Modern and Contemporary art is a rapidly growing aspect of the museum's permanent collection. This exhibition features the work of artists with roots in Louisiana who have made significant contributions to the American Art scene in the 20th and 21st centuries. The exhibition presents the work of Edward Pramuk, Margaret Evangeline, Robert Rauschenberg, William Moreland, Ida Kohlmeyer, Clyde Connell, John Hathorn, Lynda Dautreuil, Mark Grote, and new acquisitions by Cora Kelley Ward. The permanent collection of the Paul and Lulu Hilliard University Art Museum began with a dedicated group of university faculty and community volunteers. In 1957, Dr. R. Warren Robinson, head of the USL art and architecture department, William Moreland, Chair of the Fine Arts Section, and Fred Daspit, Professor of Art, began acquiring works for study and teaching. Daspit began collecting faculty and graduating student work … and this became the nascent University art collection. Through these efforts, Daspit attracted the attention of collector W. E. Groves who donated to the University its first major acquisitions of artwork. In1967, Frances Love, a local marketing professional was hired as the part-time Museum director. Between 1968 and 1983, she received a number of significant contributions from local families, further establishing the growing art collection. In June of 1983, Herman Mhire, a member of the visual art faculty was appointed to succeed Mrs. Love. He was charged with merging the Art Center for Southwestern Louisiana and the Gallery of the School of Art and Architecture into the University Art Museum, which would be housed in Fletcher Hall along with the permanent collection. In 1995, Mhire resigned his role as director of the University Art Museum. Bryan Lafaye was appointed as Museum Director and under his leadership (1996 - 1999), the museum acquired new works for the collection including a number of significant French paintings contributed by Robert and Jolie Shelton. Mhire returned to his position in 2000 and soon thereafter Lafayette residents, Paul and Lulu Hilliard, pledged to UL Lafayette Foundation five million dollars for the construction of a new multimillion-dollar Museum facility. The new building provided the first state of the art museum environment for the care and presentation of the collection. Soon after the opening in 2004, Janet and Byron Begneaud contributed the triptych by her brother Robert Rauschenburg on view in this exhibition. In 2006, Mark A Tullos, Jr. was appointed director and soon after, Jolie and Robert Shelton established the Robert and Jolie Shelton endowment for collections. Tullos hired Dr. Lee Gray, Curator of Exhibitions and Collections in 2008. Since then Tullos, Gray, and the Museum’s staff have diligently built the collection and presented a delightful array of traveling exhibitions reaching out to a variety of interests and tastes attracting out-of-town visitors from along the gulf coast. Collections preservation has been a primary objective for the past five years. In 2009 the museum underwent a Collections Conservation Assessment funded by a grant from Preservation Heritage, and in the same year, museum director Tullos was invited to participate in the Institute of Museum and Library Services national summit concerning saving our national treasures. Critical and long overdue conservation, preservation and provenance research has been performed on the art collection. The Hilliard Museum’s reputation for excellence is now recognized internationally and our network of partners, both globally and locally, continues to grow. This year the Hilliard Museum was one of four museums recognized by the Foundation Alberto and Annette Giacometti, based in Paris, France, for protection of artworks and artist rights. Other nominees included The National Gallery, London, Victoria Albert Museum, London, and the Detroit Institute of Art. Since 2005 over 600 works have been added to the collection including works by early 20th century American masters, renowned artists from the Southern Regionalist movement and Modern masters from Louisiana who made significant contributions to the American art scene. In 2008, the Warhol Foundation contributed a collection of photographs by Andy Warhol. In the past two years, a bountiful number of works have been added to the collection, including a donation by artist Hunt Slonem. Additions to the museum’s collection of works by contemporary women artists include four important paintings by New York painter and Louisiana native, Margaret Evangeline and a three-dimensional painting by Alabama artist Dale Kennington. Martha Jane Stevens of Florida has contributed a large collection of works by Louisiana sculptor, Clyde Connell along with a rare painting included in this exhibition. Artist and collector George Newton of Kailua, Hawaii, a major contributor to the collection for the past five years, donated a major work by John McCrady and most recently donated to the museum’s collection three outstanding paintings by American artists. Gilbert Gaul, a late 19th century artist best known for his Civil War era illustrations and paintings, a watercolor by American Abstract Expressionist, Stanton MacDonald-Wright, and a stunning landscape by Hudson River School painter John W. Casilear featured in this exhibition. Writer, educator and art collector, Elizabeth Dubus Baldridge, has enriched the museum’s collection of American painting with numerous gifts including an enchanting watercolor by American Modernist Arthur Dove. The Museum also received a large abstract painting by Louisiana painter Edward Pramuk. Through a financial gift from Alabama collector Lynn Barstis Williams Katz the museum purchased three prints, one titled Fred’s Pleasure Club by artist Warrington Colescott and two prints by southern artist and printmaker Philip Sage. A new sculpture by former Louisiana resident and now New Mexico artist, John Geldersma, was purchased and placed in the museum foyer. This purchase was made possible, in part, through proceeds from the Jolie and Robert Shelton Collection Endowment. Georgia artist, Joseph Almyda, donated three large mixed media works on paper. Nearly 100 prints were added to our growing Mirea Press Collection of American printmaking. British Petroleum Company recently donated its corporate collection to the Hilliard University Art Museum. The collection began in the 1960s with the Atlantic Richfield Company (ARCO) under the direction of artist, Herbert Bayer. The contemporary works were not only meant to enhance the corporate spaces, but to encourage creativity in their employees. Comprising many Louisiana artists, the artworks are a reflection of 1980s contemporary art in the United States. The Hilliard Museum is not only committed to serving our parent University audience but also broader audiences in the south Louisiana area. The Hilliard Museum is committed to engagement of visitors in creative and meaningful ways that have the potential to nurture life-long learners while bridging university and community, art and education, generations and cultures. We are indebted to the following individuals and families who have made contributions featured in these exhibitions. These gifts to future generations are a significant legacy. We thank the numerous donors whose gifts have made the Hilliard Museum a truly wonderful museum. Dr. Eugene A. Kraemer, Jr. J. Arthur and Jewel Roy, Jr.

Warwick NHL Line reversal system: over 80 units of profit! Warwick made over 80 units of profit on NHL Line reversal system he developed. Lets find out what his secrets are, what his plans are for the MLB season? I started trading as a hobby back in 2011 and really didn’t start getting serious until late in the MLB season last year. When I heard about Zcode I jumped at the chance and it couldn’t be happier to be a part of this community. Do you come from investing or trading background? No real background in investing or trading but my love for sports and statistics makes this a good marriage for me. did you come up with this great idea? I had been looking at line reversals last year and was starting to see consistent trends develop during the MLB season late last year. I tracked a lot of the data and decided that I would apply my strategies to the upcoming NHL season. I have always found that trends that develop closer to the games starting always seem to outperform earlier trends which either start the night before or before lines are even posted for the day. I applied my thoughts and strategies to the 2013 NHL season coupled with a soft progression trading cycle by team and the results have been fantastic The “Late Reversals” which I like to call them where the trend moves in the complete opposite direction to what has been trending has a 74% where my Against the Smart Money trends are winning at an amazing 87%. It was great to see Cyril already doing a line reversal strategy as well and I have to give a shout out to him as he really got the idea going I just wanted to share my results with the group as well. sports? Do you plan to continue your system on MLB? The line reversal tool is my go to every day and I use it a lot on my Iphone and Ipad so I can always get trades in even when I am way from computer. My favorite sport to watch is basketball but trading wise I have to say hockey lol, but KISS has been amazing as well this past NBA season. I am testing the line reversal strategy at the moment on MLB and will be letting the community know how it performs once I have more data to share. Remove emotion from your trading. If you can’t remove emotion from what you are doing everyday it’s going to be hard to be a consistent winner. Yes we all love to win but if you get upset when one of your trades loses then this is not going to be for you. There are full time traders inside of ZCode who are doing this for a living everyday and they are literally giving you the keys to become successful. Follow their picks and stick to their style of trading for the whole season and you will be successful. If you cherry pick their selections because you have a “gut feel” or you think you know more you won’t get the best results over the long term. Always set goals as to what you want to achieve so you know what you want to get out of your trading. Is it to go on a holiday, buy a car, or to live day to day. Know what you need to reach your goals and set your risk accordingly so you can get to your goal. I know its been said over and over but this is a long term strategy just like any form of investing. We will have days where we lose but you will win over the long term if you stay consistent and have a traders mindset.

Addiction is a primary, chronic disease of the brain. There are two signs when it comes to addiction. From the American Psychiatric Association (APA) to qualify as an addiction, it required to have three of the following. 1. Tolerance- Do you use more over time? The ability to handle more drugs or alcohol with minimal effect? 2. Withdrawal- experience emotional or physical withdrawal when you stop using or doing something? Do you experience irritability, nausea, anxiety, vomiting, shakes and sweating? Emotional withdrawal is also possible. 3. Limited Control- Do you use or do something more than you would like? Do you regret your actions after? 4. Negative Consequences- Do you continue your habits regardless of the consequences? 5. Neglected or postponed activities- Do you ever put off household duties or recreational activities due to your habit? 6. Significant time or energy spent- Do you spend a lot of time trying to hide or make excuses for your habit? 7. Desire to cut down- Have your tried to stop your addiction or cut back but have been unsuccessful? If you said yes to three or more of any of those questions above provided by the APA and WHO you may have an addiction problem. There are different stages of addiction. You want to seek help as soon as possible because while it’s never easy to quit the consequences won’t be a severe early on. The longer you wait the worse it will get. Did you know that addiction to drugs or alcohol is more common than diabetes? 1. Family: having a family member with an addiction makes you 50% more likely to develop an addiction also. 2. Poor coping skills: stress can be a major risk factor for addiction. This is especially true when you are unable to find healthy ways to relax. 3. Anxiety or depression: 15 to 30% of those who suffer from depression may also have an addiction problem. 4. Negative thinking: when looking at the negative things tend to go that way. You want to find ways to help you escape and relax. When you think of addictions most people think of drugs and alcohol. There are actually many different types of addictions. There are 3 categories: substances, impulse control, and behavioral. Tobacco or nicotine dependency is a addictive substance. Meaning you have a hard time not using regardless of the harm it’s causing you and those around you. Nicotine produces toxins that affect your mood temporarily. This makes you want more because of its “high” affect. Those who smoke have a higher risk of developing heart disease, cancers like lung or throat. It’s possible to stop smoking even though it’s very difficult. The longer you smoke the harder it is to quit. 1. Attempting to stop smoking but unable too. 2. Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when you try to cut back or quit. 4. You give up other activities so you can continue to smoke. 1. Nicotine is one of the most used, addictive drugs in the United States. 2. The CDC stated there are more than 440,000 preventable deaths causes by nicotine every year. 4. Nicotine causes blood vessels to constricts. Its advised women who are pregnant no smoke because it can cause less nutrients and oxygen to your baby. Shopping addiction is also known as compulsive shopping or over-shopping. A shopping addiction is not considered a mental health disorder. Many medical professionals think that is should be a disorder. How do we know the difference between shopping and a shopping addiction? A shopping addiction is defined when it has a negative effect on your life. Shopping can cause money problems and relationship issues because of your shopping problems. Those with shopping problems have trouble controlling their spending. They also tend to be very materialistic and are very impulsive. Living with a shopping addiction would be very difficult because we have to shop for items for our lives. Whether it be groceries, household items, clothes, gifts , things for our kids. Some ideas for when you have to go shopping if you do have a shopping problem. • Take someone with you so you can only get the essentials. • Cancel store credit cards to avoid unnecessary shopping. • Only take a certain amount of cash into a store. If you are just shopping for fun that way you only have a certain amount to spend. When trying to overcome your shopping addiction make a spending plan. Those with shopping problems usually end up having financial problems. To help with your financial issues you can consider selling some of the items you have bought that you wont use. You may not get 100% of what you bought it for but you can get something back. Its better than sitting in the back of the closet. You could also consider therapy. A food addiction is the compulsive consumption of high fat and sugar foods. This activates the reward system regardless of the consequences. Going to therapy can help with this addictive behavior tremendously. Since we all have to eat. There are programs that can help you get back on track with eating correctly and healthy. As with any disorder, mental or physical you need a support system to be there for you. • Gambling even when you don’t have the money. Gambling away bill money. • You cant control your gambling problem. • Your family and friends are worried you have a problem with gambling. • Gambling can land you into debt. Bailing someone out of debt who has a gambling problem is like providing alcohol to someone with a drinking problem. Are you being helpful? Yes financially but they will most likely end up in debt again. • You don’t have to gamble daily for it to become a issue. • Many problems can be caused from gambling. Financial issues can be a major issue. It can cause relationship issues, problems with your job. It can also cause anxiety and depression. In severe cases those have been known to commit suicide. • Anyone can develop a gambling problem. No one is more prone to a gambling addiction over someone else. There are ways you can help yourself to stop gambling. It can be tricky because there are many reasons someone gambles. 4. Some try to use it as a way to solve their financial issues. 6. Used to drown out your problems. There are some way to do and find those same things but without gambling your money away. For those who like that adrenaline rush you could find things to do. Go dirt bike riding, rock climbing or if you want to be very adventurous you could go sky diving. When wanting to find ways to relax try taking a bath, getting a massage, go to the gym and workout. When trying to solve financial issues, make a budget. If you are having serious problems consider contacting a financial adviser. When wanting to be more social consider volunteering, going with friends to a concert or a show. 1. Feeling irritable when you try to stop. 2. When you try to win back your loses. Those who have serious gambling problems tend to have suicidal tendencies. Suicide is NOT the solution. You are able to overcome any addiction with help and a support system. It will be a process and not a overnight thing so be patient with yourself.

Glow worm is the common name for various different groups of insect larva and adult larviform females which glow through bioluminescence. Glow worms may sometimes resemble actual worms, but all are insects as one species of glow worm is a type of fly but most glow worms species are actually beetles.The glow worms are found inhabiting dense woodland and caves around the world with the exception of the Americas and glow worms are one of the few insects that are found inside the colder Arctic Circle. Glow worm is a medium to large sized invertebrate that is famous for having a green and yellow coloured light on the end of it's tail. Glow worms are nocturnal animals which means that they are active during the dark night which is when their glowing rears can be seen. I'm from Malaysia.I'm interested in this worm species.I'm wondering what do they eat to survive?do they dangerous species?

The name Bernese Mountain Dog is a translation of the German "Berner Sennenhund," which means Bernese Alpine Herdsman's Dog. The breed's original name was Durrbachler, after an inn where these farm dogs were bought and sold. The modern breed was developed from dogs found in the countryside around Bern, Switzerland. The original Berner Sennenhund was an all-around farm dog, used to guard the farm, drive the cows to and from their mountain pastures, and pull carts loaded with milk cans to the dairy. Today's Berners retain some of these instincts. The breed was rescued from near extinction by Professor Albert Heim around the turn of the century, and has developed slowly since then. In 1948 there was a significant outcrossing to a Newfoundland, which resulted in improving the temperament and increased the size. Berners are known to have first come to America in 1926, and possibly even earlier, but the breed was not recognized by the AKC even after intervention by the Swiss Kennel Club. A decade later, two more were imported from Switzerland and these dogs became the first of the breed to be registered with the AKC. The Bernese is a breed which needs human companionship, and should be made a part of the family. They are a gentle breed, very affectionate and extremely faithful. They make excellent children's companions and can get along very well with other pets. They make good watch dogs, but are not much of a guard dog. A Bernese can be quite reserved around people they don't know, but once they have accepted someone as a friend, they will remember them all their lives.

You will be traveling in areas which are largely free of major infectious diseases, so there are no official vaccination requirements for foreign visitors. However, we strongly advise you to consult your physician or Vaccination Centre for current health warnings and recommended vaccinations. As it is practically inevitable in areas where water is high in mineral and metallic salts (as is the case with Central Asia) one should be prepared for minor gastric conditions. Consult your physician or pharmacist for recommended remedies. Throughout the areas you will be traveling, one of the main health warnings is dehydration. At all times maintain a steady intake of non-alcoholic liquids. Sunburn is another major problem. Bring adequate suntan lotion and a wide brimmed hat. If desired, you may also bring a supply of vitamins, throat lozenges, throat gargle to prevent basic infections, cold/flu tablets, aspirins, Band-Aids, antiseptics and antibacterial cream. Please advise us if you have any allergies or particular medical aliments which may require special attention during the trip, and if your doctor has prescribed any medication, make sure that you have sufficient supplies to last the duration of your holiday.

We respect your privacy ALL e-mail addresses you offer will be utilized just for sending this story. Microcomputers are the smallest and least high-priced common goal computers. They have little memory, less processing power, are physically smaller and permit fewer peripherals to be attached. Microcomputers are generally recognized as individual computer systems or just Pc, a term that was initially employed to imply IBM compatible computers, a name that is now typical place. The size of transistor elements continually decreases in order to pack a lot more on a chip. In 2001 a transistor typically had dimensions of .25 micron (or micrometre 1 micron = 10−6 metre), and .1 micron was projected for 2006. This latter size would allow 200 million transistors to be placed on a chip (rather than about 40 million in 2001). Simply because the wavelength of visible light is also fantastic for adequate resolution at such a little scale, ultraviolet photolithography strategies are being created. As sizes decrease additional, electron beam or X-ray methods will become needed. Every single such advance demands new fabrication plants, costing numerous billion dollars apiece. An Operating Program like Linux and Windows are computer software which is employed by your laptop to show text, videos, images, and other objects on your computer. It is also utilised to playback music, audio, and alerts, and for going on the internet. Operating systems are designed to talk to your computer hardware to show video on your monitor, and play sound on your speakers by utilizing applications, and drivers. If you get a very good complete tower gaming case for your rig, you’ll be in a position to use it not only for the lifespan of this machine but for numerous upgrades to come. I’ve employed some very good desktop circumstances and some genuinely poor ones in my day. That becoming mentioned, I think most manufacturers are doing a far better job in 2016 of recognizing some of the design and style flaws with their preceding situations and implementing much better designs. I like the new hinged side panels that circumstances are providing now as well as complete-length side panel windows. A couple of years ago I had an older Computer that I had upgraded from stock with an added DVD burner, a second 500 GB difficult drive, and extra memory. The Pc was already installed in a hot operating environment so I had to modify the case with an additional huge cooling fan and a little fan to cool the hard drives. Of course I used an LED fan simply because it was truly the cheapest of the large fans and I admit, it appears cool also! This inexpensive ATX power provide functions specially selected elements & a higher performance heat sink to cool down crucial internal components. It is also Serial ATA 150 ready. The cable-tube on main power cables allows for far better cable routing and a neat install. The universal motherboard connector fits most branded motherboards. Think about the function pictured above. It is a modernized version of the original Duff’s Device. Take a close appear at it if you haven’t noticed it ahead of. On 1st reading, most C programmers will feel the do-even though mingled with case statements must be a mistake. After that wears off, some will suggest memcpy() as a replacement (but this is not attainable).

Home Law Are You Running into the Law Too Often? Are You Running into the Law Too Often? What does your legal record look like these days? If you are like many other individuals out there, your record should not be a big concern to you. That said some people put themselves in precarious positions. In doing this, they can end up on the wrong side of the law before they know it. So, how can you do your best to avoid running into the law too often? One of the biggest gaffes you can make is when you are not smart with your actions. An example of this is when you are behind the wheel. While there may be temptation to speed or run through a stop light, chances are you will get nailed at some point. With that being the case, it is smart to do your best to avoid taking chances with the law. If you do end up with a traffic ticket or two, do your best to pay them off as soon as possible. In the event you plan to fight them, also do that as quickly as you can. Unfortunately, some people decide to let things go or they forget about the ticket. Over time, that can lead to trouble with the law. If this is you, you could end up being one of the many OC warrants issued or those near where you live. By being on top of the matter, you lessen the chances of a warrant with your name on it appearing. Another gaffe you can make where the law can get involved is if you owe any kind of support involving your divorce. An example here would be owing child support or alimony. In the event you have not been making your court-required payments, you could end up with a warrant out on you. Once again, handling the matter sooner than later is the best course of action to take. In being smart about your actions, you lower the odds of ending up on the wrong side of the law. While you may well not be breaking the law, you could be hanging out with the wrong crowd over time. For instance, you are with someone who has a propensity for getting in trouble. You happen to be out with them at some point and time when the police swoop in. Police may question if you are involved with a crime that one you are with has allegedly committed. While the occasional instance mentioned above is not the end of the world, too many can put you in jeopardy. Not only do you have to think about impact on your personal life, but what about your professional career? What if being with the wrong people time and time again could sabotage your career? Is this something you want to take a chance on? By being smart on your actions and surroundings, your chances of running into the law are minimal. So, are you doing all the right things to avoid contact with the law?

I’ve written previously about some example R scripts I created to extract sea surface temperature data from NOAA’s Optimum Interpolated Sea Surface Temperature products. If you want daily global sea surface temperatures on a 0.25×0.25° grid, they gather those into 1-year files available at http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/data/gridded/data.noaa.oisst.v2.highres.html. If you want weekly average SST values on a 1×1° grid, you can get those back to 1981 at http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/data/gridded/data.noaa.oisst.v2.html. If you just want a smaller file for a single day on the 0.25×0.25° grid, you can find those at http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sst/griddata.php.

Today was another great day with other PowerShell enthousiasts where I got to share some tricks of the trade. During DuPSUG’s second Basics event, I was once again able to provide a session, this time about “Improving your Scripts”. I had a blast and I hope others did too and as promised I’ve made my code available on GitHub on the general DuPSUG GitHub. I’d like to thank all the people attending today’s session for your time and patience, all other speakers for sharing their time, code and tricks and of course @EJHeeres for arranging the event perfectly.

Great News for lovers of Mary Magdalene! The church at Rennes-le-Château is dedicated to Mary Magdalene, and so over the years I have researched her history. My approach is journalistic - I report what I find - and historical, but I always listen to the "evidence" of spiritual people who tell me they receive messages from an alternative world, or even from Mary Magdalene herself. I have long suspected that Mary Magdalene came to Languedoc rather than Provence and researched Roman history of the time so that I had a background to set Mary and Jesus against, to discover what really happened during those early days of Christianity. It seems to me I have discovered the route they took, traversing to Corbières to settle for a while in Rennes-les-Bains not far from Rennes-le-Château. Now my book about this route is published. You can read much more about Mary Magdalene and this route on my site; www.marymagdalenebooks.com or you can buy the book at the end of this article. One day I will be a guide along this route for people researching Mary Magdalene, thinking of her both as a goddess and an historical person. The name comes from the Latin, viginti gradi, which means twenty steps. Mary Magdalene and Jesus would have walked up these steps on the renovated Roman road entering the village. One of the longest chapters in the book! I found out so much here, about the Cathars and the "Notre Dames" who were really Mary Magdalene. Tuchan was a large and thriving valley in Roman times. At Tuchan is the first of three huge Cathar castles along this route, Aquilar. Only five kilometres further, at Cucugnan are Roman remains, and today, in the church, evidence of the old beliefs of the Cathars; a statuette showing Mary Magdalene pregnant. Except they insist it is the Virgin. Then the road drops down into Cubiéres-sur-Cinoble, watered by three minor rivers. Today, this village with its strange church is fascinating with much to offer . . . renovated by Saunière's builder, Elie Bot . . . nearby are the Gorges de Galamus. Just past the hamlet of Linas is a forester's road, nowadays used as a short cut by farmers' vehicles. It is called la Route de Ste Marie but at one time it was la route de Ste Marie Madeleine. The local Mairie's explanation of the change of name was that it was too long! On this tiny road, in the middle of a wood, the Aude deputy to parliament, Henri Dujardin-Beaumetz, inaugurated a plaque on 19th May 1902. He was a great friend and fellow freemason of Bérenger Saunière. The Roman road, based on an old Celtic track, was about 100 metres to the east of today's modern road, and is now a randonneur's footpath on the other side of the River Blanque. Further on is a junction where the Blanque is met by the River Sals – it makes a deep pool – and it is called Le Benitier which as you know is the word for "Baptismal Font." I explain in my book how Mary baptised people by the river, in Le Benitier and in Fontaine des Armours. Mary and Jesus never lived in Rennes-le-Château but it is likely, along with other people living at Rennes-les-Bains, that they walked or rode up to the hilltop to Rennes-le-Chateau, to worship Isis, on warm sunny days. Incidentally, Mary Magdalene and Jesus travelled along a little known Roman road, a mining route that linked Ariège with the coast, which I enjoyed researching in this journey of discovery!

Ten years after the first Mamma Mia! film, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again proved yet again that movies don’t have to be dark and dreary to be deep. Explaining the plot of Mamma Mia! to someone who knows nothing about the movie can be difficult: a simple description of what the story is about sounds incredibly frivolous… after all, it’s a romantic comedy about a woman who doesn’t know which of three men is her father. Oh, and it’s a musical. And all the songs are by the Swedish band ABBA. What?! But even with such a seemingly ridiculous premise, Mamma Mia! is beloved as one of the most emotional and heartwarming movies of recent times. And all the singing and dancing only adds to the impact of the film. Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again follows suit in a glorious way, and yet again proves that even a premise that is largely bright colors, spontaneous singing and dancing, and romance, can be one of the most emotive films of the year. How did they do it? Mild spoilers for Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again below. To successfully follow Mamma Mia!, the sequel had to be drastically different from the beloved classic. And the filmmakers’ risky decision to kill off the very heart of the show, Meryl Streep’s Donna Sheridan, paid off gloriously. A story like this one, centered around the aftermath of the death of one of its central characters, could have easily gone awry, given that it focuses on powerful themes of grief and generational grudges, and turned out to be a lot more sad than uplifting. But instead, it succeeds beautifully because it commits to showing more than gritty darkness — it shows the beauty in every heartbreak. The very concept of a musical featuring only songs by ABBA seems like a ridiculous fantasy, but both the Mamma Mia! films balance out the fantastical musical elements with a strong sense of emotional realism. Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again never shies away from the strength of Sophie’s grief, or the betrayals Donna suffers, or the overwhelming responsibility borne by Donna during her pregnancy. Instead, by facing the emotions in a realistic way, it finds itself uniquely equipped to explore character development in a better way than most stories because its commitment to being thorough also shows us the beauty in every circumstance on Donna and Sophie’s face. Joy is much more effective than straight-up pain, because it’s realistic: even if we don’t notice it, every sad moment in life has beauty on some level — whether it’s the setting, the people that support us through suffering, or the strength in the effort to overcome difficulty. Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again highlights that. When Donna is giving birth at the end, and Sophie is celebrating her mother’s life — and grieving her death – we witness how painful and isolating it all feels for them. But we also witness Donna’s overwhelming joy at the birth of her daughter, the sheer wonder that Donna’s life was in general… and how far Sophie has come in pursuing her own dreams and her mother’s. The ability to turn a story like this into a musical, and turn every painful moment into a dance, is a testament to the expertise that engineered both movies. Mamma Mia! Here We go Again, perhaps even more so than the first movie, did something we all struggle to do: to face the beauty in sadness head-on, and celebrate every moment that led us to where we are.

Horatius Bonar wrote one a very important book in 1874 entitled The Everlasting Righteousness, which should be required reading for any student of theology, indeed anyone wanting to understand the glory of Christ's righteousness and the immeasurable riches of God's grace in salvation. With a weak faith and a fearful heart many a sinner stands before the altar. It is not the strength of his faith but the perfection of the sacrifice that saves; and no feebleness of fiath, no dimness of eye, no trembling of hand, can change the efficacy of our burnt offering. The vigor of our faith can add nothing to it, nor can the poverty of it take anything from it. Faith, in all its degrees, still reads the description, "The blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin." If at times the eye is so dim that it cannot read these words, through blinding tears or bewildering mist, faith rests itself on the certain knowledge of the fact that the inscription is still there, or at least that the blood itself (of which these words remind us) remains in all its power and suitableness upon the altar, unchanged and uneffaced. God says that the believing man is justified: Who are we, then, that we should say "We believe, but we do not know whether we are justified?" What God has joined together, let not man put asunder. There are as many struggles with faith as there are Christians... and yet one thing remains true: as Bonar writes earlier, "That which satisfies the holiness of God cannot but satisfy the conscience of the sinner. God, pointing to the altar, says 'That is enough for me'; the sinner responds and says, 'It is enough for me.'" (pp. 12, The Everlasting Righteousness) Christ's life and death - his righteousness - satisfies for the believer's sins, and propitiates them. Completely. It is finished, as Christ said, dying, on the cross. Let us NEVER think that anything in our believing qualifies us - or any wavering of our trust in difficult times DISqualifies us. We contribute zip. We are His because HE made us His, drew us with irresistible grace, and accounts us His children. We are His because HE gave us faith - led us to trust Him for all - and, because we remain frail men and women, we sometimes struggle to keep the constant strength of faith that we sometimes exhibit. Christ has died, Paul said. Christ is risen. Christ shall come again.

I never seem to have much luck with Zombie loot but I am on Day 5 level 10 and not seen a single drop from a zombie yet. Thats weird I was getting noticeably more bags when I was playing. Even got two in a row once. But then again, I also dont have encumbrance working, or status effects from beer working, and the first 8k map I tried was great.(with the exception of massive amounts of radio towers ect.) Hmm, I guess I say "great" in comparison to some of the abomination of maps I have been hearing about on the forum. So I think experiences are varying greatly atm lol. Last edited by Maynard69; 02-11-2019 at 03:23 AM. Having a blood moon every 7 days is what the game is about. BUT! Having random Blood Moon nights would be beyond Awesome. Think about it for a few minutes. Day 5 - you are gathering all of your resources needed for base building. Then at 1800 hours - the screen goes into blood moon - You have 4 minutes to prepare for a hoard! If it was randomized that would be awesome and give some players heart palpitations! And - that is what the game is about...... Zombies, fear and the unknown. The new settings possibilities are great. - Random blood moon: I started a game with a blood moon every night BUT a random gap of 7 days. This creates real stress and the obligation to organize differently, I love it. On the other hand, to display the day in red when a blood moon is programmed for the evening spoils a little the pleasure ... I would prefer to be warned towards 6 PM by the first thunderclap. - XP Multiplier: I set it to 200%. I suspected that there would be a concern (one of those we like to have): gamestage is proportional and I met ferals from day 4. So, yes, I level up faster, but the game becomes much more difficult. Those who want to use this setting to start building earlier have interest in playing Nomad or less ... Awesome. - Damage of zombies reduced against blocks: 50%. For the moment, I especially saw the interest in the POIs. Zombies take longer to leave a room, it avoids having too much at one time. I also started my base earlier, wooden this time, because it will be easier to defend. In short, excellent options that can be mixed for everyone to launch the game that best suits his style of play. The problem is with your expectations. You are expecting that each release is put out with you, the player in mind. They are not. They are tweaking and experimenting with things. The goal at this time is not to make a game that 100% satisfies you. Once you adjust your perceptions to this everything else falls in line. Your perception is warped, unless unintentional breaking of basic functionality like hunger and stamina is experimenting and tweaking things to you. For those of you trying to find a decent RWG map, try MegaMap5000 as your seed on 8k. So far it seems very cool, will update with pics if I get a chance. We generated a few worlds today on 17.2, and I gotta say this is the worse the game has looked since the first playstation release we played. Each world was almost flat, populated by scores of radio towers, water treatment plants, and junkyards, with a smattering of residential areas. What happened to 3/4 of the buildings? Where did the mountains go? The maps seem to be almost equally divided by massive sections of each biome. I'd rather they just cooked 17.2 a bit longer than release this mess. It's almost heartbreaking to see what's happened to a game we love. There is a hugh variation by just adding one letter. I used BETHTEST an got a cool one with a nice mix of hill and water that stretched for 2.5 k with town an residential areas. + A lot or Radio towers 蘿 but other than the to many towers there was a nice mix on a N/S corridor. TFP said RWG is getting some love soon! It's almost heartbreaking to see what's happened to a game we love. 3. The random blood moon thing. Why did The Fun Pimps want to make this random? Last edited by meganoth; 02-11-2019 at 01:57 PM. I set the AI damage down to 5 HEK  they can't even get out of a room. This is definitely a test run of the new sliders.

I suspect one of the most interesting discussions at Thursday’s meeting of the Metro Board of Directors will involve a non-Metro project: the California high-speed rail project between Anaheim and San Francisco. County Mayor/Supervisor and Metro Board Vice Chairman Mike Antonovich has authored a motion asking the Board to support a high-speed rail route that travels through the Antelope Valley between L.A. and Bakersfield — with a station in Palmdale. That was, in fact, the plan for the state agency building the line. But earlier this year the agency — beset with funding woes — decided to reopen studies of an alternate route along the 5 freeway that would be shorter and cheaper to build. It will be intriguing to see if the Metro Board at this stage wants to throw its weight behind a particular route, given that the entire high-speed rail project is in such a tenuous state. The 5 freeway corridor between Bakersfield and Santa Clarita has relatively few people living near it, whereas Lancaster and Palmdale have a combined population of about 300,000. The Antelope Valley also lacks Amtrak rail service and is presently a two-hour journey to L.A. Union Station via Metrolink. Earlier this year, Antonovich and Board Member Ara Najarian authored a motion — approved by the Metro Board — asking Metro to work with Metrolink to develop a master plan to greatly speed up train trips to the Antelope Valley. It’s clear that Antonovich has concerns about keeping the northern part of his district connected to the rest of the state and metropolitan area. The motion – which also seeks to have a So Cal representative on the high-speed rail board — is below. I support this motion only on the basis that even if high speed rail never materialize Metrolinks Antelope Valley Line and Amtraks San Joaquin Line would greatly benefit from investments in the Palmdale/Lancaster Route. Also the planned Desert Xpress HSR to Las Vegas would link to the Antelope Valley rail segment instead of just terminating at Victorville. Although at the same time, a grapevine alignment would still be faster and cost less. So its an interesting question of what is more important; making a rail link to Las Vegas possible and improving rail service to Antelope Valley or maximizing the speed and efficiency of that section of CALHSR. Personally I feel that the latter is the most important since every bit of speed gain makes the system all that much more attractive to on-the-fence travelers. Still though, I can understand how its a tough choice. I like the idea to run the line along the 5 fwy from Southern Ca to the Bay area. Cheaper and faster along the 5 is the way to go. If folks in the AV want to use high speed rail, they can easily take Metrolink to the Sylmar high speed rail station.

The SV241, SV242, and SV261 Series valves are 3-way, direct acting, and normally closed. The SV241 and SV242 can be used for liquids or gases, while the SV261 offers a quick-exhaust feature and is limited to air use. The most common application for these 3-way valves is the control of single-acting cylinders or spring-return actuators. The pressure inlet port is blocked in the de-energized position. A 3-way normally closed valve has 3 ports labeled 1, 2, and 3. When de-energized, no flow occurs from port 1, but there is flow from port 2 to 3. When energized, flow occurs from port 1 to 2, but no flow occurs from port 3. Usually, 3-way valves are used to control larger pneumatically activated valves. Port 1 is connected to the pressure source, port 2 is connected to the cylinder controlling the pneumatic activation, and port 3 is the exhaust port vented to the room. The SV251 is a multipurpose 3-way valve and can be used as normally open or normally closed. During installation, for normally closed select port 1 as supply pressure. Port 2 is connected to the pneumatic cylinder, and port 3 is the exhaust port. To configure as normally open, select port 3 as supply pressure. Port 2 is connected to the pneumatic cylinder, and port 1 is the exhaust port. The SV251 can be used for liquids or gases. The SV271 is a 4-way, 5-ported solenoid valve, rated for air applications only. It is a 2- position, pilot-operated valve typically used to control doubleacting cylinders or pneumatic actuators. A 4-way valve has ports labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. When de-energized, pressure is supplied to port 1, which is open to cylinder port 4 and closed to cylinder port 2. Port 4 is closed to exhaust port 3. When energized, pressure port 1 is closed to cylinder port 4 and open to cylinder port 2. Cylinder port 2 is closed to exhaust port 3. Cylinder port 4 is open to exhaust port 5.

Dr Julian Lewis: Until the right hon. Member for Gordon (Alex Salmond) spoke, I was afraid I was the only person who was having a bit of a flashback to the endless nuclear arms control negotiations of the 1980s, and there are, indeed, a couple of parallels, to which I will allude very briefly. The first, on Amendment 1, is that the question we are asking ourselves is whether we should make a one-sided gesture, regardless of the fact that it would leave our own citizens exposed. We made it clear from the outset that we would agree to guarantee the rights of EU citizens here, if other countries would do the same for our citizens in those countries. Why is it that that suggestion has not been seized with both hands? One has to say that that indicates that there are some problems with the way in which the EU intends to go about its negotiations with us. Mr Angus Brendan MacNeil: Will the right hon. Gentleman give way? Dr Lewis: No, I will not. However, the second point, on the second Amendment, is the more important one. We have heard it said repeatedly from the Opposition Front Bench, and from elsewhere in the Chamber, that no deal is the worst possible outcome for Britain. Put another way, that is like saying that any deal at all is better than no deal, and I would like to draw a parallel with those arms negotiations in the 1980s. The most successful negotiations were those that led to the treaty in 1987, when we got rid of all the cruise missiles and Pershing missiles on our side, and the Russians got rid of all the SS-20s. It happened like this: we carried out our threat in the negotiations, and the other side walked away from the negotiating table; but, when they saw we meant it, they came back and they gave us a better deal. What we have to remember is this: no deal may lead to a better deal a year or two down the road. If you are determined to take any deal rather than no deal, you will end up with a much worse deal than you might otherwise have had.

This beautiful corn comes to us from Iowne Anderson, a community seed saver from Six Nations via Rebecca Ivanoff of Whole Circle Farm and what a treasure it is. Plants reach 1.5 – 2 m and produce 2-3 ears per stock. Each ear is 10-15 cm long and packed with deep blue kernals. Hang your crop to dry and use it to make cornmeal or flour. Use the cornmeal for traditional cornbread or corn mush and the flour for pancakes or muffins.

Possible improvement: create table to track search phrases. When the phrase has been searched more than __ times, add the link to search results in sitemap. Finally, ping search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ask.com to notify them of your updated sitemap. Having difficulty,I could use some help. 1. If I make this a plugin, how can I run the sitemap generate file - is there a plugin hook in hourly/daily cron? 2. How can I generate a list of items I can loop through, that will allow me to use the item helpers? 3. How to generate item URL for each locale? It's not possible now... we should add this too. However, in the core we should add the system to ping google, yahoo and the other search engines. It's not possible now, we could do that, I will check the URL's and make that possible. We could work this out together, I will work on the URL's, tell me if you need anything else. I didn't tested it yet, but I think it's ok. 1. In sitemap_add_url(), I had to add htmlentities() around $url so that & is converted into &amp; - or XML says there is an error. ...and now categories are being generated. 3. Add <priority></priority>. Can be 1.0 (highest) to 0.0. Great! I will update it. I didn't added priority since I'm not sure which is more important. Maybe latests item? How many? 10? 100? 200? ...because I want users to land on the posts. I guess the first 100 or so seems right for 0.9. Really I don't know how it works, as long as items is higher than categories/regions/pages. My sitemap was refused by Google... I have uninstalled the plugin. I have seen that Chrome does not show if a feed is not correct. Did we validate the feeds using the w3c validators ? Which was the reason to reject it? Our system encountered an error when processing your data feed. Please include a street, city, state, postal code, and country, in that order, separated by commas. Also make sure you are able to validate your locations through Google Maps. Your feed contains an attribute name our system doesn't recognize.

While items missing recommended attributes will process successfully, we recommend including relevant attributes if they are available. Last question, Is out there a google feed validator or something?

In order to achieve an optimal reliability of biological wastewater treatment plant, is it necessary to continuously integrate biological data in to the process management. With VIT® Vision, it is our goal to create a tool that allows to control the entire biology, i.e. microorganisms and higher forms of life, of a wastewater treatment plant and to use it as a data pool for a more efficient plant management. The focus on primary measurement parameters complements secondary measurement parameters and allows for faster reactions and the establishment of an early warning system. To this end, VIT® Vision is going to be continuously developed and is going to be expanded according to our users’ feedback. Information and data regarding the state and the distribution of bacteria popoulations in a plant. Primary parameters are also direct parameters. With their help, disturbances can be recognized at an early stage, even before chemical parameters react. Substances that are produced by bacteria and that can be measured afterwards or substances required by bacteria – e.g. ammonium, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate etc. How can (micro) biological measurement data help you? By integrating (micro)biological measurement data and comparing them with chemical and chemical-physical measurement data, an early warning system that informs you about the plant’s stability at any time can be established. Undesirable developments in the biology can be discovered even before discharge limit values are exceeded. This raises plant reliability to a new level.

The French are known for their ability to capture the heart by merely words. France is the symbol of romance, style, food, wine, and fashion. This place is also the home of some great authors who have written various quotes signifying the true essence of life. "Don't just stand there with your Eiffel Tower smile. Tell me you love me, and tell me in French. For those of you who don't know, the French way of saying those three divine words (I Love You) is Je t'aime. Isn't the language just so beautiful, like the people of this country? France has become synonymous with the essence of style, romance, love, good food, wine, poetry, prose, and perhaps all the pleasurable things that exist in the world today. Truly said by the famous French writer François de La Rochefoucauld, "Tout arrive en France" which literally means, "Everything happens in France"! The French are known to be one of the most expressive people in the entire world. They are known as the ones who never keep anything within their hearts, they are loud and open when they love or appreciate something, or even when they dislike something! Their perception of life is highly exuberant. Which is why we have some of the most illustrious writers, poets, painters, and other renowned artists from this part of the world, because this is the place where feelings evolve and reach out in the open. This article will help you recreate the same magic of love and life, and bring out the very same essence of life―just as the French see it! France is love, romance, passion, and emotions. It is a place of people who are ruled by feelings and cacoethes of indulgence. Considered to be one of the most romantic places in the world, let us begin our collection of French sayings with the quotes that reflect love. Love is an irrational feeling that consists of happiness, pain, fear, confusion ... perhaps every feeling that a human heart can possibly feel. France being the home of some of the most renowned writers, it is certain that the following quotes will enlighten the timid flame of love and passion in your heart once again. Le plus grand faible des hommes, c'est l'amour qu'ils ont de la vie. . English Translation: Man's greatest weakness is his love for life. English Translation: That is love, to give away everything, to sacrifice everything, without the slightest desire to get anything in return. English Translation: Love says it all without number, love knows no law. English Translation: Love is a passion which surrenders to nothing, but to the contrary, everything surrenders to love. English Translation: When love wants to talk, the reason must be silent. La vie est un sommeil, l'amour en est le reve, et vous aurez vécu, si vous avez aimé. English Translation: Life is sleep, whose dream is love. You will have lived, if you have loved. J'ai aimé jusqu'à atteindre la folie. Ce que certains appellent la folie, mais ce qui pour moi, est la seule façon d'aimer. English Translation: I have loved to the point of madness. That which is called madness, that which to me, is the only sensible way to love. L'amour c'est être stupide ensemble. English Translation: Love is being stupid together. English Translation: Nothing is real but dreams and love. English Translation: Love makes life's sweetest pleasures and worst misfortunes. Aimer et être aimé sera la grande affaire de toute notre vie. English Translation: To love and be loved will be the greatest event in our lives. English Translation: Love is the miracle of civilization. English Translation: It's difficult to define love. In the soul it's a passion to rule; in mind it's sympathy; and in the body it's only a hidden and tactful desire to possess what we love after many mysteries. L'amour est l'étoffe de la nature que l'imagination a brodée. English Translation: Love is the cloth which imagination embroiders. English Translation: To live without loving is to not really live. Life is a journey―a beautiful one indeed! As they say in French, "La vie est belle", which literally means "Life is beautiful". However, not all of us are successful in deciphering the beauty that this life contains. Or to say, that not all of us have the eye to witness and appreciate the simplistic beauty of life. Lost in the daily chores, struggling between work and home, we fail to sit back and relax. If it wasn't for the French way of living, where they enjoy each and every sip of wine as if they are tasting something ethereal, the way they are so passionate about their food and life, we would have never known how it is to really live with liveliness. Different people or places inspire us differently to live and love life, and we sure can say that these different things that inspire us definitely constitute the French culture. This very same essence is reflected by the following quotes and sayings. English Translation:There are those who get nothing out of their fortune other than the fear of losing it. English Translation:It is difficult to master one's passions, and impossible to satisfy them. English Translation: I have often repented for speaking, but never for staying silent. English Translation: A fool always finds one still more foolish to admire him. Tout comprendre, c'est tout pardonner. English Translation: To understand all is to forgive all. La mort n'a peut-être pas plus de secrets a nous reveler que la vie? English Translation: Perhaps death doesn't have any more secrets to reveal to us than life? English Translation: We promise according to our hopes; we fulfill according to our fears. English Translation: Death never takes the wise man by surprise, he is always ready to go. English Translation: If youth only knew, if age only could! Il faut vivre comme on pense, sans quoi l'on finira par penser comme on a vécu.. English Translation: You have to live the way you think, otherwise you'll end up thinking the way you lived. English Translation: He who sleeps with dogs gets up with fleas. English Translation: In order to achieve great things, we must live as though we were never going to die. English Translation: When the wine is drawn, it must be drunk. Everything about this language is so beautiful and intense, who wouldn't fall in love with it? The aforementioned quotes surely do a marvelous job in capturing the essence of France, be it about their perception towards love or life. In fact, to the French, there is no life without love! These are just a fraction of the many awe-inspiring and heartfelt quotes that come from the land of the French. If only we could enlist all such wondrous words that exist! Do you have a favorite French saying or quote? Feel free to share your picks with us through the comments section below.

I am sure you will agree with me that it is very possible to be very fit and yet to be very unhealthy. It is usually demonstrated in regular exercise and feeling strong and fit, however, having low energy levels, possibly suffering from an impaired digestion or skin problems or frequent colds or some other form of ailment or even disease, even having excess weight! You might be that person yourself or you might know someone who you even admire for being an example when it comes to their dedication to fitness, however, you can see they might not be eating great and are “getting away with a murder” when it comes to eating. Some people I know are exercising so they CAN “eat what they want”. Or can they, really? That is the question. It is also a possibility to be very healthy with great energy levels and youthfulness because of an attention to a healthy diet, however, to struggle to run for three minutes or get up a few flights of stairs. I used to be this person after I had children and know the feeling very well. Exercise does burn extra calories, however, its role in weight management is actually minimal compared to its role in our overall health, ageing process and general strength and stamina. So, I think many will agree with me when I say that our aim, ideally, might be to be both – healthy AND fit. The question is – are You? And, if not, how do we achieve both? I can tell you that there is a lot more to it than just diet and exercise, but they seem to be good places to start! First pillar is Nutrition, of course. It is because, 80% of our health IS nutrition – what you eat and drink throughout the day because it does not matter how hard you work in the gym if you do not control what you put on your plate. Your level of nutrition body gets will impact your mood as well as how your body functions. Ideally, we need to start seeing food as medicine. Because food CAN have that effect. We ourselves are powerful beyond measure and it is equally incredible what our bodies can do when we give them the right nourishment and fuel that helps our cells thrive. Your nutrition is the first key to your healthy lifestyle and all the exercise in the world can not help you if you are not fuelling your cells right, in the right balance and frequency. The latest research confirms that only 1 in 4 people, that is 25% of the population, across 15 European countries, considers nutrition when making their health choices. Malnutrition (poor diet that results in micro-nutrient deficiencies that lead to disease) is estimated to cost £19.6 billion in the UK annually where malnourished adults account for about 30% of hospital admissions. No wonder we have such shocking figures if only a few consider nutrition in the first place. I think there is a lot more to it and certainly education plays a huge part. To function optimally, body needs protein, fibre, healthy fats, micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, etc) and water delivered each day in the right balance and frequency! On top of all that, we need to eliminate foods that drain our cells, lower immunity, cause inflammation, make us age faster and, ultimately, cause the disease. Second pillar is EXERCISE. It might be only 20% of your weight management efforts, however, benefits of exercise far exceed its benefits just for managing weight. We are wired to move, all we lack is a habit of doing so intentionally, so, building exercise into our DAILY routine is an absolute game changer. Best time to do it is in the morning, very first thing! Why? Because of all of the above that I mentioned that happens almost instantly after exercise. Also, because if you don’t, you know it – the day takes over and you are less likely to find time for it later on. How difficult is it to make time for it by just getting up 30 minutes earlier. You are worth it! If you can go out and exercise in the nature, in the fresh air, it is even more impactful as it can be almost as a form of meditation, but even if you exercise at home, you will be awake, feel strong and ready to face the day. Also, when you build exercise into your routine and learn about nutrition and start making the right food choices – then you are setting yourself up for success. Remember, you can be fit, but unhealthy… and you can be healthy, but unfit… The ultimate goal to a long-term overall health is being FIT & HEALTHY! And we are not done, not yet. Rest probably should have been first because it is after rest that we exercise and then feed our bodies. Body that is not rested is body that is not ready for anything. Good rest during the night regenerates our cells, repairs our muscle tissue, deep sleep rejuvenates our whole body. If you have ever woken up not feeling rested enough, you know the feeling and can appreciate the importance of great rest. If you have ever woken up feeling rested – you know that feeling too and how phenomenally it feels. Sleep is a whole different topic, but best advice is to try to get 8 hours of sleep, avoid technology and LED lights 1-2 hours before bed time, as well as caffeine. Sleep in a dark and cool room. All of those, and many more, help us rest during the night, however, there is another form of rest – relaxation during the day. Allowing yourself time, even if it is 10-20 minutes to switch off, meditate, have a walk in the nature, clear your mind or even have a power nap that many successful people build into their daily schedule in order to freshen up and it helps them refocus. There is a huge amount of evidence on the benefits of daily meditation on our well-being as well as productivity. So, make sure you are not in your head and in all frenzy and activity all day long. Forth pillar you might think is an unusual one, but it impacts our health massively – working on our HEALTH MINDSET. I am sure you have heard “80% nutrition, 20% exercise, 100% mindset!” Because we are creatures of habit and building healthy habits is built in the mind first! Everything starts with a thought and healthy starts from making a CHOICE to be healthy, every single day. And this, in my opinion, is indeed the pillar worth mentioning because it is exactly with mindset itself that most struggle with before they can achieve health or reach their health, wellness, fitness goals. Once we choose to be healthy, we need to start working on building habits that support our healthy, active lifestyle so we can continue taking action and feeding our bodies with the right nutrition, exercising our body daily and giving it rest and relaxation it needs. To build those habits, we need to invest time in surrounding ourselves with people, influences, education, support that will help us achieve that. We need to keep feeding our healthy mindset with healthy thoughts so our healthy active lifestyle continues to manifest itself. So, how do YOU support your mindset? Remember that if people around you are unhealthy, there is a nearly 50% chance you will be too. So, you must surround yourself also with positive examples. Find a coach, find a running buddy, enrol yourself on to a health programme that fits your lifestyle and gets you the support and education you need, etc. What have they got you thinking? Reading? Doing? Who are you following on social media? I am serious here. Who are your influencers? What are you reading, listening to, watching? Where is all that leading you? If you want to be healthy, but are following, as an example – deep-fried pizza recipes on social media, or slogans how life is too short and should be enjoyed without limit so you can eat what you want and when you want it… you get the picture… Well, clearly none of that is really helpful. If you have higher health goals, then you need to set clear goals, design a plan, surround yourself with the right support, positive affirmations and, ultimately, take action. Most importantly, keep educating yourself what healthy is and what it is not because, life is a lot more fun when we are not sick and when we have energy to face the day. Investment in our health is arguably the best investment you can make because life IS too short and it is worth and much easier living it in a healthy and fit body. Not because fit & healthy defines you and so does not the lack of it. But, because we are all worth living our best versions of ourselves – physically, mentally, spiritually. My name is Sanela, I am a Nutritional Therapist & Herbalife Nutrition Health Coach and if you would like help with your weight management, energy, nutrition in general, please do reach out, I would love to help. I design a balanced nutrition plan with your lifestyle and body composition in mind that is based on balanced nutrition, regular activity, hydration and rest. I believe that health is our greatest wealth and state where happiness resides, so wishing you to be healthy and happy, always!

One concern I’ve seen lobbed our way every so often at Arcen in general is that some folks don’t like the idea that we “crowdsource” our design ideas. Aka, that we listen to player feedback, really. The common way this is phrased is that we should step up and “be the designers” properly, with a singular vision that we won’t compromise for anyone. That’s… all well and good, I suppose. If you have a singular vision for a game, go right ahead and do that. And if it’s perfect on your first try, that’s amazing. But the thing is, we’re not “crowdsourcing” our design ideas at all. We get feedback. It’s the same thing that authors of novels do when they show their rough drafts to their spouses, to their reading group, to their test readers. They aren’t trying to pander, they aren’t trying to get other people to help write the book themselves, or anything like that. They want more sources of data from which to consider their creations from alternate points of view. I looked at all that feedback and felt something else. Familiarity. It was getting too similar to AI War, and to solve the problems we were having here, we’d have to move increasingly in the direction of AI War. Which is all well and good — I still love AI War — but the battles here were supposed to be a lot shorter than that, and not always against an entrenched enemy, etc. So I took a step back, and said. “Okay, we’re supposed to be ‘Batman in space’ here, so that’s clearly a problem.” We were in territory that was familiar in a way that I didn’t want to get into again (there’s more we will do with AI War, but I don’t want to try to do that in this game as well). And any solutions I thought of with the combat as an RTS would make the individual battles take longer, be more complex in terms of controls and keybinds, and in general be way more divorced from the solar map sections. Originally this game had 1v1 ship combat from a side view, and it was more of a minigame. This was before we had any players testing it at all, it was just us. We were excited about the ideas, but eventually we ran into problems I felt were intractable, so we had shifted to the RTS model. I really loved what the RTS model had brought to the table… except I really wanted to get back to having just a single player ship. A very early prototype screen from when the game was still side-view 1v1 ship combat. This is the first time we’ve ever actually shown screenshots from this version of the game at all! So that’s what we did! And players had also noted that they wanted to see multi-sided battles, which has been something I’ve always loved, too. That was one of those “why didn’t I think of that?” sort of moments. So we made that a big focus, too — again it made the combat more like the solar map in terms of the overall feel of you being the little guy caught in larger scuffles. We spent about a month working privately on this, without giving any new builds to our alpha players. I wasn’t happy with it enough yet to bother getting feedback, because they would just be telling me things I already knew. If I didn’t enjoy it yet, then nobody else would, either. That’s one of our mantras, is that somebody on the staff has to enjoy the game or else we’re really doing it wrong. Almost always, that person is me. The exceptions are when I’m not the lead designer, which has only been on Tidalis (which I did quite enjoy) and the aborted Exodus of the Machine project. Anyway, we got the multi-faction stuff working, the combat scenarios, the single-ship stuff, etc. All of that was my design, it wasn’t “crowdsourced” or even discussed with players. Though Josh Knapp (former staff member) and I did discuss it quite a lot during the first week or so, and he was instrumental at that period. But it evolved from there. We got all that working… but still it just felt “off” to me. It was doing everything that I wanted, but I found that without the need to order squadrons of ships around, there wasn’t enough for me-the-player to do. I was setting courses for my ship, and watching it auto-fire, and so forth. It was… boring. The overall tactics of the battle were there, and working perfectly, but the moment-to-moment stuff was dull as dull could be. The solution quickly came to me, really — based on our past work with things like the A Valley Without Wind games, it sprang readily to mind. I needed a gun that I could point and shoot myself. That sort of rotational shoot-anywhere gun from Valley 1 is just super fun. So we put that in, and suddenly I was having a blast. It took more balancing and tweaking, but after another week or so we finally released that version to our alpha testers (and let in a new batch of alpha testers) after a month of being incognito. Firstly, the combat felt a bit shallow in the moment to moment bits. The tactical aspects were still there, but since you could only have one gun at a time, your solution to any incoming ship was “shoot it a lot.” That is fun in a bubble-wrap-popping sort of way, but it’s not something that is sustainably interesting. And it cuts out some of the moment to moment tactics. Yes you had 5 special abilities to pop off here and there, but your main gun was in general so effective (and had to be) that this was only of some real use. The solution to that did come from a player, not from me, and it was another of those head-smacking “why the heck didn’t I think of that?” moments. Histidine pointed out that having only one gun, and not being able to switch guns, was limiting. Durr. In that short space of time, he was the only one to comment on it, and I didn’t see it yet. I’m sure I and the other alpha testers would have figured it out before too long, but he saw it immediately. So within two days I put together a new build that had a bunch more guns, rebalanced combat around specializations, and six overall “abilities” on your bar, although 3 of them were just guns that you could switch through (reducing the former trigger-style abilities from 5 slots to 3, in other words). I put in a bunch of other things to differentiate the flagships from one another, and really beefed up the uniqueness of all the classes. This was over a weekend, and I was working alone, incognito, away from players and staff during that period. I’m not saying that to brag — great ideas come from all sorts of sources, and often those sources are not me. But to someone who thinks that we’re “crowdsourcing” our games, I feel like it’s important that they actually understand what’s going on. This is how you want game developers to work. You want them to listen to you, and you want them to then use their feedback to fuel their own vision, rather than just blindly following what you say, or sitting you down in a conference room to have a design-by-committee. So here we are. The combat is really fun in the moment-to-moment bits, and it’s also much more mentally-involving in terms of making sure you not only use the battlefield properly, but also use the right weapons for the right enemies. You can adjust the play speed to whatever you want, so it doesn’t have to be a twitch game if you need time to aim. Me, I like it fast and twitchy, and play on a more moderate difficulty level to compensate. Play as suits you. This brings us to the second problem that I mentioned (a while back) above, and which is as-yet unresolved, but next on my to-do list: identity crisis for the game. Is this a thoughtful 4X, or is this a SHMUP-like? Valley 1 and 2 both struggled with this exact same identity crisis. You could love one part and loathe the other, and that would make for a challenging time. Personally I loved both in both, but limiting our audience to the intersection of two rather disparate genres would be… well, stupid. That’s a good way to go out of business. It was worrying me from the start, and players all immediately brought it up, too. In all their cases except for one (Cyborg, as it turns out), they were loving both sides, but were worried others would not. Cyborg tried to like the new combat, but just ultimately can’t stand it. And I understand that — I loved the Total War titles, for instance, but I loathed their realtime parts. So I just used auto-resolve and played it as a 4x and had a great time. For everyone else who liked the realtime parts, they were free to play that, and that’s great. But it comes down to even more than that. Much as I love the action-oriented combat here in TLF, sometimes I just want to get on with it. That’s another thing with Total War: by auto-resolving all the battles, I could just play one continuous, fluid strategy game. I wasn’t constantly interrupted by 5 or 10 minute battles where I would then have to go “now what was I doing again?” when I finished them. If I clearly had the superior force for a battle, I also didn’t just have to go through the motions, either, it’s worth noting. So that’s currently my thing: making an alternate combat mode that is a little more involved than your traditional Total-War-style auto-resolve, but at the same time quick and fluid and cerebral-only. In other words, keeping it a pure 4x if you use that instead of going into the action bits. And you know what? Much as I love the action bits, I plan on using that feature quite a bit myself. Sometimes I just want to get on with things, as noted above. And this way I can play the action-y combat exactly as much as I want, without ever having to weary of it. Which is important. The solar map portion of this game is a big, beautiful 4x simulation that is way more involved and interesting than anything Arcen has ever done before, in my opinion. I would hate to exclude the very type of audience that most appreciates that simply because they hate SHMUPs. And I also don’t want every game I play to take me 12 hours because I’m in combat for half the time. I want to play it the way I want to play it, when I want to play it, based on how I’m feeling at that moment. That’s what’s coming. And that’s how we listen to our players.

Separated lovers and a school reunion some 20 years later are the key elements of C. Prem Kumar’s beautiful and spell-binding romance ’96. The title refers to the year Ram (Vijay Sethupathi) and Janu (Trisha Krishnan) graduated from their school in Tanjore and there is a lot of nostalgia here, even for someone like me who left school many years before 1996 and in a different country. For anyone who has ever been to a school reunion, much of this will ring true, and it’s the realism throughout the film that drives investment in the characters and their situations. Everyone here is fantastic and the story completely captivating, making this the best romance film I’ve seen so far this year. The film opens with a song introducing K. Ramachandran (aka Ram), a wild-life and travel photographer who can see beauty and interest everywhere he looks. We see birds and butterflies look simply amazing through his eyes, and even an isolated group of plants in a sand dune become charmingly scenic. What’s interesting here is that Ram is always alone. When shown eating in a restaurant, he’s the only one there, and while taking photos on the streets, he rarely interacts with the people around him. Even when he’s taking a picture of an actual person, the camera seems to create a barrier between him and his subject. The song ends with Ram on a deserted beach and as the camera pulls away, we can see just how isolated and alone he is, although there is nothing to suggest that this is not exactly how he prefers to be. Ram also seems to teach photography and, on the way back from one of his teaching sessions, a detour takes him through his hometown of Tanjore. Despite initially instructing his student not to stop in case he has to talk to anyone, Ram ends up outside his old school and after reminiscing with the security guard (Janagaraj) heads inside to his old classroom. Prem Kumar doesn’t give us flashback sequences with chattering students to illustrate Ram’s memories of his school days. Instead, and more effectively, the school is empty and silent, but Ram runs his hands along the marked walls, exactly as he would have done every day at the school, and shouts in glee when he spots his name on an achievement board. The visit sparks some nostalgia and after speaking to his old classmate Murali (Bagavathi Perumal), who adds him to the ’96 class Whatsapp group, the two quickly organise a reunion. The reactions of the group when Ram joins their chat are simply perfect and work well to recreate the different dynamics between the old friends. They’re also very funny, and allow us to see a different side of Ram’s personality which up until this point has been very dour and unapproachable. On the day of the reunion, Murali and Ram’s ‘sister’ Subhashini (Devadarshini) are careful not to mention Janu as Ram scans the crowd looking for the girl he loved back in high school. When Janaki Devi aka Janu arrives, she too spends her time scanning the crowd, until she spots Ram, and immediately goes to speak to him, despite the best efforts of Subhashini to keep the two apart. Janu is now married and lives in Singapore with her young daughter, but when she sees Ram, the years fall away and we are swept back into the past. The flashback sequence shows the romance between Ram and Janu, and it’s a beautifully sweet and innocent love affair. The young Ram (Aadithya Baaskar) is shy to the point of not being able to speak to Janu, and his contortions to avoid touching her even by accident are simply perfect. Young Janu (Gouri G Kishan) is more confident, for example she sings regularly for her class, but she is just as head over heels as Ram. The flashback sequences are a beautiful slice of nostalgia, with songs and film posters from the era, while Prem Kumar has perfectly captured young love with all its silences, confusion, embarrassments and raw emotion. Aadithya Baaskar and Gouri Kishan are superb and play the young lovers perfectly while the support cast including Niyathi Kadambi are also excellent and capture the atmosphere of school life well. Back in the future, there are more silences and pent up emotion when Ram and Janu meet. Gradually over time they start to talk and the mystery of what happened to Ram, and why he left Janu becomes clear. Along with talking for most of the night, Janu also takes Ram to the barber (Kavithalaya Krishnan), and as he loses his bushy beard and wild hair, Ram seems to lose some of his reserve too and opens up to Janu. The emotion here is incredibly powerful, and although the film moves slowly it’s the right pace for these two separated lovers as they gradually discover each other again. The same mannerisms are there as in the flashback sequence, and the sheer depth and intensity of the emotion makes for compelling viewing. However, it’s not all awkward silences, potent emotions and age-old frustrations. Prem Kumar has crafted a well-rounded story with comedy perfectly timed to lift the mood just whenever it seems about to become too self-aware or dip into melodrama. It also helps that the two leads, Vijay Sethupathi and Trisha Krishnan have scintillating chemistry and both are at their absolute best throughout the film. I’m always appreciative of Vijay’s versatility and having just seen him power through Chekka Chivantha Vaanam as a cop, and previously as a smart gangster in Vikram Vedha, this is an amazingly abrupt turnaround to a shy, socially awkward loner. He takes the role up to another level entirely and completely brings Ram to life so that we can feel his insecurity and shyness, but also see through all of that to the genuinely sincere person beneath. Trisha too is brilliant here, and her natural reserve works well for Janu while she has an air of sophistication that echoes her character’s usual life in cosmopolitan Singapore. She delivers too in terms of emotion and this really is an outstanding performance from her throughout. I was simply captivated by both Ram and Janu, and like everyone else in the theatre was completely invested in their relationship and longing for some kind of happy ending. Both characters carry equal weight in the film too, which keeps the dynamic more appealing and ensures a better understanding of the characters. The music for the film is a mix of old and new. Janu only sings songs by S Janaki, and there are timeless Ilaiyaraaja melodies as a result, while the new music from Govind Menon is beautifully melodic and fits seamlessly into the film. The playback singers do an amazing job too, and this is one of the most memorable soundtracks I’ve heard for a while. The subtitles too are well done (I’m not sure who was responsible) and they have taken time to think about the song lyrics and even added in translations of some of the written word. There really isn’t anything to dislike about ’96. The performances are exemplary and the story is impeccably detailed and perfectly told. There are so many amazingly poignant scenes too – Ram puling out his old school shirt from a suitcase under his bed, the moment when Janu puts her hand onto the gearstick of Ram’s car and his reaction when he goes to change gear and inadvertently touches her hand, the moment when Janu sings for Ram in his apartment, and the final scenes in the airport – just incredible. I loved every single minute and cannot recommend this movie highly enough to anyone who likes their romances to be nostalgic, bittersweet and full of emotion.

This is my favourite news story in a long time. At a concert last Saturday in Quebec City, the Foo Fighters demanded that news photographers sign a contract allowing news outlets to print their photos exactly once, after which over all rights to those photos would pass to the band’s management company. Photographers would never see another dime, or even necessarily get credit. Oh, and according to Global News, Foo Fighters’ management had the right to nix any photos before publication. So how did Quebec City newspaper Le Soleil respond? For Desharnais’ part, he seems a little surprised at the response to his sketches, which blew up on Twitter and made headlines overseas. First, we have a metric crap-tonne of extremely talented cartoonists around, any number of them ready and more than willing to take on a sketching gig at a concert. And while live sketching can’t hope to capture the detail and realism of a photograph, it can sometimes do more to capture the tone and spirit of the event. I’d love to see more outlets bringing cartoonists in for events like this, on their own or alongside photographers. And second, while Le Soleil is right to roll its eyes at the overreach of “throughout the universe” language, phrases like that are old hat to freelancers who’ve been presented with strikingly similar contract provisions by Canadian newspapers. It doesn’t look quite so appealing from the other side of the signature line, does it? Previous articleMicrosoft Finalizes Windows 10 with 10240 Build – Last RTM Milestone for Redmond!
