Making progress with Delft move
It used to be said that one should never take a gramophone (remember them?) to pieces as it was impossible to get everything back again into the space provided; the IDSA office clearly has much in common with such historic equipment!
The proposed move of the office to the Netherlands Diving Centre (NDC) in Delft seems like a good opportunity to have a really good 'clear out', to reorganise filing systems, and prepare for the future; in retrospect such ambitions were clearly wildly optimistic and our succumbing to the European Winter Virus has not helped! However, our recent visit to Delft did make progress and the more we get to know the admin team at NDC the easier it becomes; if we can share our knowledge as easily as we appear to be able to share our germs the future looks good!
The IDSA has now reached the stage where every full member school (i.e., those which can issue IDSA certification) has gone through its second five-yearly audit and we were pleased to see that in every case standards have risen since the initial visit. There is a real atmosphere of enthusiasm and commitment as well as increasing support from employers for a qualification that is not solely within the remit of one country. The fact that the IDSA Levels have been used to set standards for national certification reflects the high regard in which they are now being held.
Although our main focus is with diving schools, the IDSA is fortunate in having the support of a number of manufacturers. One of these is IHC Hytech BV in the Netherlands, and the admin team spent a fascinating morning visiting IHC's production centre in Raamsdonksveer some 50 kilometres southeast of Rotterdam. Factory visits can be something of a chore, but this one proved to be both stimulating and enjoyable. The working areas are stretched over three sites, two of which adjoin each other and the third is close by. What immediately strikes the visitor is the high quality and professionalism of the staff who work in these centres. There is an atmosphere of quiet commitment and understanding of colleagues' contributions to the whole picture. We arrived at the same time as a new hyperbaric lifeboat was being unloaded, ready for its chamber to be fitted and were able to follow much of the process by moving through the workshops and seeing the chambers at various stages of development. New safety regulations mean that the demand for hyperbaric lifeboats is at an all-time high, whilst new developments in technology continually raise standards. It was comforting to see, at first hand, the excellent standards in research and development which operate within this company.
The 33rd annual meeting of the Association will be held this year in Cork, Ireland and will be hosted by the Irish Naval Service, a full member of IDSA. It begins with welcome drinks and registration on the evening of Tuesday, 15 September and ends at lunchtime on Friday, 18 September. Preliminary details are available in the current issue of IDSA News, or from the administrator at any time.

If you're a business owner and anticipate hosting an event in the near future, it's important to remember that planning is only half the battle. To truly guarantee a good turnout, you'll need a solid promotional strategy. If you're unsure of where to start, don't fret! These three ways to promote your soiree are as easy as they are effective.
Website Listings
Promoting your event online is a solid strategy since there are several outlets at your disposal. Sources like local newspaper websites, nightlife applications that list events nearby and even parenting sites. Having a presence on these platforms allows for increased local awareness of your organization's event. One thing to keep in mind is that these services may not be as targeted as other venues, and your messaging should reflect this.
Social Media
If you don't already have a Facebook page for your business, now would be a good time to create one. Social media, especially Facebook, is an effective avenue for promoting events because almost everyone uses it. On Facebook, you can create an event, invite people and use the URL to share the event with your network on other social media channels like LinkedIn and Twitter.
Tip: Create a branded graphic to catch the eye of potential event attendees. Free design services like Canva provide user-friendly templates for getting started. Be sure to keep your graphic content consistent with your brand style. It may also be worth considering a series of countdown graphics to the event.
Invite Your Network Through Email
You could also send event invitations through an email marketing platform like Constant Constant Contact or MailChimp. With Constant Contact, not only do they provide templates for invitations, but they can also track event registrations in real-time.
It's important to remember that you don't need to limit yourself to one form of promotion. Different platforms have different audiences, and utilizing a mixture allows for a more diverse audience. Assess which channels are best suited for your event, then get to work promoting your event. And if you plan on hosting an event or attending one soon, now is the time to brush up on your networking skills.

Durangonians Rock!Adroit Records Discovers International Tunesmith Brendan McKinney at the Durango Songwriters Expo
Nashvilles innovative new label, Adroit Records, is excited to announce the signing of internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter Brendan McKinney.
"I met Brendan at the Durango Songwriters Expo in Asheville, N.C. when he came to a special Adroit Records listening session," says Adroit Records President Jim Tract.
"All I can say is he knocked me out from the first four bars of the first song he played for me. Brendan is exactly the kind of seriously talented songwriter we are interested in supporting. He has an honest, earthy, visceral sound that speaks not only to true country, but real Americana. Plus, ironically, he grew up five miles from where I did! I love irony and synergy, and we seem to experience a lot of it. We are so happy to welcome Brendan McKinney to the Adroit family."
Born and reared in Philadelphia, Brendan has toured throughout the U.S. and pierced the international music scene with his Americana tunes fused with blues and country. He has traveled throughout Europe and the Scandinavia peninsula performing in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland Germany, Austria and Greece.
"It was Jim Tracts reaction and enthusiasm for my song that encouraged me to work with Adroit," says Brendan. "Its a great lift to be on the roster of Adroit Records."
Brendans phenomenal track, 'Yeah She Does,' will be featured on Adroit Records first compilation of the best singer-songwriters.
To stay updated on Brendan and the exciting new music being released on Adroit Records, please visit www.adroitrecords.com.
Brendan is a multi-year Expo-ite and one of our favorite people...congrats Brendan!
Adroit Records has also made a single song deal with options with Joshua Rush, another Expo veteran. Congratulations Joshua!
"Another benefit of attending the Durango Songwriters Expo was meeting Warren Sellers [a long-time Expo-ite] who co-wrote 'I Found Myself Dancing' and who turned me on to Joshua. Its an extremely poignant song and vivid story, and when Joshua sang it for me with just his acoustic guitar I heard a whole world of possibilities that made it and Joshua a perfect fit for Adroit. Joshua is an extremely talented singer as well as writer, and an extra bonus is he shares my passion for baseball!" Jim Tract, Adroit Records
"Im looking forward to being part of a team that genuinely loves music as much as I do. Im a real fan of the artists on Adroits roster and feel blessed to be counted alongside them." Joshua Rush

Remember the old TV show, WKRP in Cincinnati, in which the dorky Les Nessman would always give the pork bellies report?
Or how about the 1980's movie, Trading Places, in which Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd corner the orange juice market? These are both examples of commodity trading in the popular media.
Commodity trading is one of the fastest growing sectors of the financial markets, and for good reason – in 2006, commodity prices have gone through the roof. If you haven't heard anything about the prices of pork bellies or orange juice skyrocketing, that's because there is much more to commodity trading than just these two items.
Corn, oats, soybeans, wheat, soy meal, bean oil, cattle, coffee, sugar, cotton, steel, copper, silver, gold, platinum, natural gas, crude oil, and gasoline are just a few of the dozens of commodity trading options. Metals – steel and gold, in particular – and petroleum-related products, have seen major price movements in the past year.
Commodity Trading – Buy Low, Sell High; Or Sell High, Buy Low
If you remember back to Trading Places, the classic commodity trading comedy, Eddie Murphy and Dan Akryod entered the trading pit and immediately started selling orange juice contracts.
They didn't own any orange juice, but they were able to sell it anyway. This is how commodity trading works – you either hope to buy low, sell high; or sell high (first), and then buy low.
Commodity Trading Hedgers
This aspect of commodity trading can best be understood by taking a look at the market participants. On one hand, you have the hedger. Hedgers want to guarantee commodity prices in order to lock in profits or avoid excessive losses.
For example, imagine a jewelry maker who needs 1000 ounces of gold to make a collection of necklaces. He needs the gold in six months, but the way gold prices have been going up, he's worried that he won't be able to afford it.
To hedge in the current price of $500 per ounce, the jewelry maker could buy ten 100 ounce futures contracts on a commodity trading exchange. Then six months later, if the price has gone to $700, the value of his contracts will have gone up by $20,000 each.
He can sell the contracts for a profit and use the proceeds to buy the actual gold, which will result in a net price of $500 per ounce.
If, in the above example, the value of gold had actually fallen to $400 per ounce, the jewelry maker would have lost money. He'd be locked in to paying $500 per ounce for gold when the actual market value was only $400.
Still, if the jewelry maker's primary concern was to not end up paying $700 per ounce, this will have been a valuable commodity trading experience. In this way, hedgers use commodities contracts like insurance.
Commodity Trading Speculators
On the other side of commodity trading is the speculator. This is someone who has no business interest in wheat, crude oil, or copper, but essentially gambles on the price of each commodity going up or down.
Commodity trading is very popular with speculators because it requires very little margin. This means that commodity trading speculators can control thousands of dollars worth of commodities for just a few hundred bucks.
The downside of leverage in commodity trading is that it can lead to very big losses that you might not be prepared for.
For this reason, your credit history will be more important when applying for a commodity trading account than an account to trade in almost any other financial market.

2015 Honda Crosstour
Japanese carmaker is about to launch wagon vehicle. This time, based on Honda Accord sedan, for next year we can expect 2015 Honda Crosstour. From first impressions, looks like this vehicle won't attract big interest from buyers, because Accord is better-known and offers more for similar price. We can take these two cars as two vehicles based on the same matrix, but at the same time, these are some kind of competitors. Even it is based on the Accord, 2015 Crosstour doesn't have much common things. Accord's greatest advantage is its handling, which is way worse at 2015 Crosstour.
2015 Honda Crosstour redesign
Honda Crosstour 2015 is made taller, which will make easier approach and enter. Also, Crosstour's lengthen will bring more space inside the cabin, so this wagon will have enough legroom for driver and all passengers. Inside the vehicle we will have most of the features as current model has, just updated. Honda Crosstour suffered larger design in 2013, so we suppose not many things will be changed. What we will get inside are steering wheel mounted controls, auto dimming rearview mirror, USB interface, Bluetooth connectivity and many more infotainment features.
2015 Honda Crosstour engine
Current model of the 2015 Honda Crosstour is packed with one of two engine options. Next year Crosstour should get the same engine lineup. Bas models will come with 4-cyllinder drivetrain that develops 192 hp. Other option will be 3.5-liter V6 that brings 278 hp and 252 pound feet of torque. Engines will be paired with 5-speed auto gearbox. Estimated EPA rate will be slightly better than before with 22 MPG in city ride and 31 MPG for highway run. AWD system will take 1-2 MPG from these rates. Other transmission system is being developed, and it is 6-speed automatic, with paddle shifters behind the steering wheel.
2015 Honda Crosstour release date and price
Since there won't be too many changes, it is not expected for price to raise significant. We can presume that start with $28.000 for base models of the 2015 Honda Crosstour will be reasonable. Of course, models with stronger engine will cost more. Official unveiling is expected by the end of this year or early in 2015.

The Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) has published the ASA Ruling on Crystal Legal Services Ltd in relation to a challenge as to whether claims made by Crystal Legal Services Ltd were misleading and if they could be substantiated. The advertisement in question promoted a PPI refund service stating, "The average from PPI our clients win: £3,516.2**…**Win amount correct from March 2015".
The ASA investigated the advertisement under CAP Code (Edition 12) rules 3.1 (Misleading advertising) and 3.7 (Substantiation), but ultimately found no breach. Crystal Legal Services Ltd provided evidence which detailed the individual claims, the organisation the claim was made against and on which product the PPI had been paid, along with the amount won on the claimant's behalf. The ASA considered that consumers would be likely to understand from the use of the word "average" that the amount they could win might be higher or lower than the £3,516.2 quoted. Therefore, the ASA ruled that Crystal Legal Services Ltd could substantiate its claim and the advertisement was not misleading.

In announcing the honor, the journal notes, "Research results with significant potential to improve health, or to treat or prevent disease, often deserve an immediate leap onto the 'front page.' However, scientific breakthroughs don't always make the front page, and some don't make any page. We are the platform for you to stand out from among approximately 100,000 papers published each month, in order to attract more attention from the public and potential investors."
Poudel-Tandukar, who has been invited to further explain this work and its significance in plain language for a wider audience, says of the honor, "I am delighted that my study was selected to be featured in Biomedical Advances because of its innovation and potential for significant impact."
The web editor adds, "Biomedical Advances is a website focusing on cutting-edge biomedical research from around the globe. Our website receives more than 10,000 visits per month from an international audience of academic and industrial researchers and developers, providing greater opportunity for your results to be recognized and appreciated."

Import the New Order events See how to adapt your solution so you can bring in all the orders classified as New Order. 1.Create a new mapping for the sample data You can see the relationship between events in Kabels order workflow and the attributes in your application in the table above. Only one change is needed for the New Order event: Step name. Map that information into the Order entity while preserving the ability to replay previous steps in the future. Backup the mapNewOrder mapping Step Action 1 On the left menu, click Mappings. 2 Select the mapNewOrder mapping and click the Copy icon. 3 Keep the current space – Initializers – selected and click Copy. 4 Name the new route xmapNewOrder, and Save. This creates a backup copy of the mapNewOrder mapping. Modify the mapNewOrder mapping for the New Order event Try and modify the mapping as needed. If you get stuck or need help, look at the Helpful hints section below the table. Step Action 1 In the context of the mapNewOrder mapping, add the information missing to fully map the New Order event.Reminder: You are missing a parameter for the name of the step. 2 Add the missing parameter for the step Name attribute. 3 Add an operation for the new attribute. 4 When everything looks correct, click Save. 5 Click the Copy snippet for routing context icon. Helpful Hints Order Mapping Parameters Order Mapping Operations 2. Expand the order route for the New Order events The only change needed is for the route to pass the parameter for Step. Backup the rouOrder route Step Action 1 On the left menu, click Routes. 2 Select the rouOrder route and click the Copy icon. 3 Keep the current space – Initializers – selected and click Copy. 4 Name the new route xrouOrder, and Save. This creates a backup copy of the rouOrder route. Modify the rouOrder route so you can inject a file The xrouOrder route was set up to import data based on a resource. Now, you're going to import data using the direct:file method. Modify the rouOrder route: Step Action 1 Modify the from uri statement so it uses the direct:file method: <from uri="direct:file"/> 2 In the <unmarshal> statement: Replace the symbol used as the CSV delimiter from "|" to "," Delete the useMaps="true" statement. Add the following: skipHeaderRecord="true". Your statement should look like this:<unmarshal><csv delimiter="," skipHeaderRecord="true"/></unmarshal> 3 In the <split> statement, delete the two lines after <simple> ${body}</simple>. 4 Paste the contents from your mapping. The contents you've added should look like this: <u:map-create> <u:map-entry key="CustomerName"> <!-- Add expression for CustomerName --> </u:map-entry> <u:map-entry key="CustomerReference"> <!-- Add expression for CustomerReference --> </u:map-entry> <u:map-entry key="CycleNumber"> <!-- Add expression for CycleNumber --> </u:map-entry> <u:map-entry key="Timestamp"> <!-- Add expression for Timestamp --> </u:map-entry> <u:map-entry key="step"> <!-- Add expression for step --> </u:map-entry> </u:map-create> Map the mapping parameters to the columns in your import file As you can see from the content, you just pasted into the route, you are expected to fill in missing information, namely, you must specify for each parameter in the mapping the location (here is the column number) where the information will be found in your import file. For example, if you take a look at the CycleNumber attribute, the corresponding column of information in the export file is the third column, 3 Order No. In your route, on the u:map line for Cycle Number, this is exactly what you need to specify: that the information for Cycle number will be found in the third column of the file, that is to say in ${body[3]}: <u:map-entry key="CycleNumber"> <simple>${body[3]}</simple> Step Action 1 In the rouOrder route, indicate the correct $body expression for each u:map parameter. See example above for help. Modify the rouOrder route for the New Order event You want the rouOrder route to call the Order mapping for every New Order event and only for New Order events. The sample data has three different event types: New Order, Order Valid, and Payment Received. As it is written right now, your route will send data from all three types of events to your Order mapping. You need to filter and direct the events that you send to the mappings. Understand conditional route processing Camel being an open-source format, you can usually find useful information about Camel route syntax by simply googling it. For example, google "camel csv example" and you will find useful information within the first three or four results. However, you might find it harder to find documentation around conditional processing. Here is what you need to know. The structure of a conditional operation follows this outline: <choice> <when> [simple evaluation expression] [simple statements] </when> <otherwise> [simple statements] </otherwise> </choice> The simple evaluation expression checks the event type and would look something like this: <simple>${body[x]} == "Type" </simple> Can you see how and where to build the statements to handle this conditional situation? Step Action 1 There is one more thing to add: conditional processing. You want to place the conditional statements after the closing <setBody> statement.As with other commands, Decision Insight will automatically close statement pairs as you enter the statements. Start by entering those two statements and hitting enter to separate them.<choice> <when> </when> </choice> 2 Place your cursor between the <when> statements and enter the following: <simple>${body[step]} == "New Order"</simple> <log message="Sent to new mapping ${body}"/> <to uri="tnd-absorption:mapNewOrder"/> 3 Before running your route for the first time, turn the <to uri> statement into a comment. This way you can validate your logic without changing any of the data in Decision Insight's memory. 4 Save the route. Test run the route Step Action 1 Start the route. 2 Click the manual injection icon. 3 Navigate to the Part-4-10-Orders.txt file and inject it into your route as direct:file. 4 Check the logs. If you scroll down the top pane of the log summary, you should be able to see three different types of log messages, as shown in figure below. Caution: Don't uncomment your call to the mapping yet. One more thing to take care of. Understand what the ${body} of a route is As Camel sees it, the body is an object rooted within a range of XML statements. The content of ${body} changes during the processing of a route. In the Order route, there are four distinct definitions of the body. The four states of the body in this route are: Data arrival – As it arrives from the direct:file statement, the body contains every line of the data file, all in one undifferentiated heap. Unmarshalled data –The effect of the unmarshal command is to split the input into individual units. In the csv formation, that means that the body now consists of a list of events, one line for each event. Separate data elements accessed based on their column number in the log files –After the split commands, the body consists of a single line at a time from the unmarshalled list broken apart into separate data elements, defined by the delimiter character. Within the section, access to the individual elements is by the column sequence number. For example, body[4] selects the Step from the line currently in existence inside the commands. Conditional processing – After the closing statement, the data remains a single line, but (and this is an important but) the means to access elements is via the mapentry key provided in the third section of the map, not the column sequence number. The highlighted boxes show the relationship between the declaration and use of the key field. 3. Read New Order events with the rouOrder route Time to run your Route and bring the data into your application. Step Action 1 In the rouOrder route, uncomment the statement that sends data to the Order mapping. 2 Save and run your route. Did your route succeed? If you see errors in the logs, you missed some step leading up to this point. Go back, debug your route and come back here again. If you see only Info logs and no errors, you can continue. Validate your data What is the next step after loading data? That's right. Validate what you see. Whenever possible, validation should be a white box test. A white box test is one when you know both the input data and what to expect for results from that data. Your Selected Orders section should show this information: 4. Add attributes to the Search for Orders dashboard The new data file added a new attribute for the New Order events. Update your search dashboard to show the new relation to Step. Step Action 1 Open your Search for Orders dashboard and go into edit mode. 2 Edit the Selected orders pagelet. 3 Click the Add value button. 4 Click the Select an attribute hyperlink. 5 Follow the relation to Step and select the step Name attribute. 6 Change the label to Current Step. 7 Click Done and Save until the dashboard is out of edit mode. The selected orders pagelet should look like this: Related Links

Can someone buy a cemetery, and then turn around and use it for a ballpark, or a factory, or an office building?
In our time, that sounds outrageous. Almost 100 years ago, people didn't like the idea either. Someone, though, was actually buying back the deeds to cemetery lots already in use, thereby making progress toward owning it. Around 7,000 bodies had been dug up and moved to other cemeteries. But the public outrage was so strong that in 1927 Minneapolis stepped in and bought the whole cemetery.
It's still a cemetery: the Minneapolis Pioneers and Soldiers Memorial Cemetery, commonly called Layman's Cemetery, at the corner of Cedar Avenue and Lake St.
In the early 1900s, during the "buy back period," the cemetery was in poor repair. Over many decades, though, citizens groups have fixed it up. In 2002 it was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Some cemeteries are very pretty. Layman's Cemetery's beauty is "subtle." It has plenty of interesting history though. What I know of it's history came from the Hennepin History magazine, Summer 2003. Here are a few things of interest.
Ordinary people are buried here, not the rich and famous. That probably explains why there are few large or elaborate gravestones or monuments.
It is estimated that 27,000 people were buried here between 1853 and 1919. Since then, only a few have - those who can prove they have relatives already there.
The majority of those buried in the cemetery died of communicable diseases such as tuberculosis, typhoid fever, or pneumonia. Children, who make up half of those in the cemetery, often died of cholera, diphtheria, pneumonia and enterocolitis.
The Hennepin History publication tells heartbreaking stories, tales of notorious characters, and plenty of good history.
I visited the cemetery on Memorial Day, May 28, 2012 - the 144th Memorial Day observance held there. For photos of my visit, click here.
I'm have mixed feelings about publishing the Memorial Day photos on the web. To see why, click here to read the blog.

||Chicago| Jack Guzik
Birth: May 20, 1886
Death: February 21, 1956
Jake "Greasy Thumb" Guzik was the financial and legal advisor, and later political "fixer", for the Chicago Outfit.
Early life
Born in Moscow, Russia (although other sources state near Kraków, Poland) on May 20, 1886, Guzik immigrated to the United States in the early 1900s. He later became involved in prostitution, and allegedly white slavery, in the South Side's Levee vice district with his brother Harry Guzik eventually driving rival Jack Zuta out of business. He later became a powerful political "fixer" operating from St. Hubert's Old English Grill and Chop House; Guzik received bagmen who delivered scheduled payoffs to various police precincts and city officials.
Chicago Outfit
In the early 1920s Guzik, supposedly hearing a plan to murder Al Capone, informed him and later allied with the Chicago Outfit. On May 8, 1924 Capone personally killed gang member and hijacker Joe Howard in a saloon on South Wabash Avenue after he had assaulted Guzik. Guzik continued to act as a bagman for the Chicago Outfit until April 1930 when Guzik and Ralph "Bottles" Capone, brother of Al Capone, were convicted of tax evasion. Guzik himself, found to have earned over $1 million, was charged with paying only $225,000. In October Judge John H. Lyle issued arrest warrants for twenty-six gangsters, including Guzik, charging them with vagrancy. Guzik's defense claimed he was a horse player and, as proof he was an honest citizen, noted that he was living less than a block away from the state attorney. Guzik was later sentenced to five years imprisonment.
Later years
Upon his release Guzik assumed total control over the Chicago Outfit's finances for the next twenty years as a high ranking member of the Chicago Outfit, representing the Chicago crime syndicate in the Mafia Commission known as the "Big Six", until his death from a heart attack on February 21, 1956. His only surviving American relatives, Marian Guzik (nephew) and Marian's daughter Wanda K. Guzik, live in Los Angeles, California. The rest of his family lives in Poland, France, Germany,Central and South America.

Dalian Wanda Group chairman Wang Jianlin, the richest man in China, is already well underway to controlling a large portion of the Hollywood entertainment industry in America. His company already has acquired a majority stake in AMC Cinemas, America's largest theater chain, and recently laid out $3.5 billion to purchase production studio Legendary Entertainment.
In a feature for the Hollywood Reporter, Wang says he hopes to acquire one of the six major Hollywood studios. But for now, the man known in Hollywood simply as "The Chairman" is content to invest heavily in feature production slates at all six of those studios.
THR's report comes on the heels of a letter to the Department of Justice last month urging the agency to increase its scrutiny of major Chinese investments in Hollywood. In the letter, Rep. John Culberson (R-TX) raised concerns that significant Chinese investment in major entertainment production outfits "may be used for propaganda purposes."
From the Hollywood Reporter:
Wang Jianlin, China's richest man, normally doesn't go to the movies. He does, however, make one exception — for his 90-year-old mother. Their trips to the cinema are the rare occasions each year when the notoriously driven chairman of Chinese real estate conglomerate Dalian Wanda Group fully checks out from work.
"I won't be disturbed at all," he says emphatically. "Because the time is to be spent with my mom. Filial piety is an important Chinese virtue."
This may come as a surprise to Hollywood. After all, Wang has aggressively — some might say relentlessly — positioned himself at the forefront of China's unprecedented push into the U.S. entertainment sector. After splashing out $2.6 billion for the acquisition of North American theater chain AMC Entertainment in 2012, Wanda methodically has picked off acquisition targets at various links in the entertainment value chain — from movie houses to a $3.5 billion deal for Burbank-based studio Legendary Entertainment to distribution, theme parks, digital marketing, merchandising and the pending $1 billion acquisition of Dick Clark Productions (owned by THR's parent company) — not to mention building the world's largest film studio, for $8.2 billion, on China's northeast coast.
Wang also has made no secret of his desire to own a major American studio. But rather than wait idly for one of the majors to make itself amenable to a takeover (he openly expressed interest in acquiring a majority stake in Paramount), Wang has, in characteristic fashion, decided to take aggressive action now. He is preparing to establish a new multibillion-dollar investment fund to pour capital into the film slates of all six major Hollywood studios.
"I wanted to acquire one of the big six, but whether we can is a different story — it's uncertain," Wang tells me matter-of-factly one October afternoon in Beijing as we sit in a huge boardroom on the 20th floor of his corporate headquarters.

In 2008, Sahar Daftary fell 150 feet to her death. Initially ruled a suicide, Sahar's mother said it was not possible that her daughter, a beautiful and famous model, committed suicide at the age of 22. Anisa Daftary contends that Sahar's estranged husband pushed her off the balcony and she has filed a legal action to gain access to Sahar's Facebook page. Anisa believes Sahar's Facebook page contains important insight into her daughter's state of mind prior to her death and may provide critical evidence against Sahar's husband. Facebook has, so far, fended off Anisa's claims and preserved Sahar's confidential online content.
In 2013, Yahoo! refused to allow a brother and sister who were acting as fiduciaries of their brother's estate access to his email account; the case is pending.
Do you believe that online content should be withheld from next-of-kin or estate representatives? What if, as in Sahar's case, the content may contain information or evidence pointing to criminal activities? Suppose the online content has monetary value — like a bitcoin account or valuable domain name registrations? The domain name, "Insurance.com" sold in 2010 for over $35 million!
One of the problems is that even if a trustee or executor knows your password, they may be breaking the law if they access your online accounts. Additionally, if your accounts hold digital assets of value, they may not have the legal right to sell those assets on behalf of your estate. The terms of service contracts that we all sign or, more likely, "click through" and agree to when we enroll in online services, govern access to our content. Currently only nine states have laws that may supersede these contracts and allow representatives access to a decedent's digital assets.
This is set to change. The Uniform Law Commission, a national organization which drafts laws for adoption by all states, has written the much-awaited Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act which clarifies how privacy laws affect both fiduciaries (trustees, executors and agents under financial power of attorney documents) and online companies like Facebook, iCloud, SnapChat and Dropbox.
California is set to adopt the law in 2016 so yet one more opportunity has presented itself to urge us to update our estate planning. Wills, trusts or power-of-attorney documents — perhaps all three — need to have language allowing our representatives access to digital assets and information. Google and Facebook have already implemented changes to their terms of service agreements that allow the naming of a representative or beneficiary for our accounts and, most likely, the rest will follow. We should begin to consider how we want our online identity and assets dealt with should we become incapacitated or when we die. This information needs to be communicated to our estate attorneys.
It is also important to let our fiduciary know what digital assets we hold. A convenient and free tool to help identify and list digital assets called "My Digital Audit" can be found at DigitalPassing.com. Losing valuable digital assets or barring a representative from important information is not only unfortunate — it is now preventable with the right planning.

Mama I Want To Sing! is a 1983 musical based on the life and times of African-American singer Doris Troy.

As a tribute to many of the African-American stars' rise to fame in the 1960 and 1970s, Vy Higginsen based her musical on the life of her sister Doris Troy. Troy's 1963 hit "Just One Look" launched her to international fame and a successful career in London, although her roots were in her church choir. This is not unlike the rise of other R&B and jazz singers such as Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle and Donna Summer. Vy Higginsen and Ken Wydro, her husband, conceived the play in January 1979 and subsequently wrote the book and lyrics. The musical, however, was rejected by every major producer in New York. The lack of interest was largely due to the doubtfulness that a large enough audience would be attracted to a gospel-based production. The couple persisted without a producer, and invested their life-savings to hire out the 632-seat Heckscher Theatre in East Harlem, which had previously been closed for 15 years. Vy envisioned her audience as being "senior citizens, church groups, school children, and hard-working black mothers and fathers who had spiritual values and loved soul-stirring music."
Mama, I Want to Sing! opened on March 23, 1983, on a very tight budget; however, word of mouth throughout the black community spread the news about the work. Audiences flocked to see the musical, which "presented the passion, spontaneity and emotional uplift of the black church experience along with a universal message for anyone with a dream." Currently, Mama, I Want to Sing! has played 2,500 performances in New York and another 1,000 performances throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan. It has been performed in front of thousands of people, and is the longest running black off-Broadway musical in American history. On January 7, 1985, Time magazine named Mama, I Want to Sing! one of the ten "Best of '84" theater performances. On January 20, 1986, the show hit its 1000th performance milestone. On February 1–6, 1994, Mama, I Want to Sing! played to 40,000 at the Paramount Theater at Madison Square Garden. In 2003–04, Mama, I Want to Sing! celebrated its 20th anniversary at the Williams Institute C.M.E. Baptist Church in Harlem, formerly the Lafayette Theater. 2011 saw the release of the long-awaited premiere of the film adaptation of the musical by 20th Century Fox.[1]

Mama, I Want to Sing: Part II[edit]
Mama, I Want to Sing: Part II follows the courtship, marriage, and birth of the first child of superstar Doris Winter and her husband, Rev. Julian Simmons. In the spring of 1990, Mama, I Want to Sing, Part II opened at the Heckscher Theatre playing in repertory with the original play.
The musical was given an overall positive review from Stephen Holden of The New York Times, saying: "The sequel's romance lends the sequel a warmth and sexiness that the original show lacked." Although the review continued to say, "The dialogue and line readings sometimes go completely flat." Holden added: "But in an odd way, the show's weaknesses seem inseparable from its strengths." He concluded by saying, "To attend either production of Mama with a typical audience made up largely of church groups, some of which have traveled hundreds of miles by chartered bus to be there, is to be indelibly reminded of the enduring power of that tradition." [3]
Born to Sing[edit]
Born to Sing, the finale to the trilogy reveals the behind–the-scenes activities of Doris Winter's international tour along with her 15-year-old daughter.
Mama, I Want to Sing, The Whole Story[edit]
In the autumn of 1992, Mama, I Want to Sing, The Whole Story, a combination show featuring the storylines and music from both the shows, premiered in a 10-week tour in Japan.
Mama, I Want to Sing: The Movie[edit]
The 2011 adaptation of Mama, I Want to Sing! is inspired by the stage play and features brand new music. The story revolves around Amara Winter who enters the pop music scene, causing conflict with her mother. She learns to pursue her dreams while both navigating the often treacherous celebrity world and trying to remain true to herself and her family. The film stars Ciara, Lynn Whitfield, Patti LaBelle, Billy Zane, Juanita Bynum, Hill Harper, and Vy and Ken's daughter, Ahmaya Knoelle. Vy Higginsen plays herself in a cameo role.

I'm going to be a little honest in this post as I think it's important to establish the fact that blogging to to me is a great escape from the grasps of reality. As much as I like to try stay positive and make the most of what I've got, I sincerely find it a struggle most days. In all honestly, I'm rather good at 'shaking it off', but there are times where I re-think things over and over again wondering whether or not I imagined the whole thing, contemplating if I am borderline losing my mind.
From that, I have made it my utmost determination to make 2017 a year about progressing and learning. These are values I believe you can never get enough of. Life in itself is a learning curve. It either makes you or breaks you. I, of course, plan for it to make me. I already have made myself a list (a rather long one I might add) of things to DO and ACHIEVE.
I have a tendency to be disappointed if things don't go according to plan. However, although these are 'Goals', I know not to beat myself down if I don't achieve everything on that list. Why? Because that's Life. You can't plan your future completely but you can build it. Just like growing patches in your back garden, you could imagine a field of sunflowers but in reality, you have the possibility of rain, insects or your dog that all act as 'bumps' on the road towards success. Is that completely in your control? No. Therefore I will not be fighting it but let the pieces fall where they may. Hope you enjoyed my little motivational rant. Let me know your thoughts.

Curating a type library
The commercialisation of typefaces has become increasingly complex in recent years. The different kinds of licences, the large amount of fonts on offer, and the variety of font pricing structure and language support result in a scenario where choosing and buying typefaces seems harder than ever before. In this context, independent foundries have the chance of converting this problem into an opportunity by curating their libraries of retail fonts appropriately and with focus.

Shinkarion joins the Pla-Rail collection!
The same size as a regular Pla-Rail train, the leading car and the tail car can be connected and combined to transform into Shinkarion 800 Tsubame! The exterior of the tail car transforms into a splendid pair of wings! Special weapon parts are also stored in the middle car. They can be equipped on various parts of the Shinkarion's body, as well as in his hands, and can be combined in various ways to create different weapons.
Please note that the rails of the Shinkarion 800 Tsubame when in train mode do not attach to Pla-Rail rails, so it cannot be run electronically.

Muslim supremacists from CAIR sponsor annual pilgrimages to Capitol buildings in several different states where they waste the time of State lawmakers complaining about anti-Muslim bias, anti-sharia protests, and for the first time, this year, a roster of new grievances related to Donald Trump, including the alleged (and often fake) rise in anti-Muslim hate crimes, and no doubt, the temporary ban on Muslims entering the country.
FLMCD Florida Muslim Capitol Day is a unique two-day, non-partisan event open to all community members to advocate for policies that protect our values, our neighbors, and ourselves.
On April 4th, participants will receive required training on how to effectively engage with their elected officials on pre-determined Muslim issues and legislative agenda. The following day will be a lobby day in which participants attend scheduled meetings with Florida State Legislators and to demand that more attention be paid to the plight of Muslims in America facing anti-Muslim bias, and Donald Trump's "illegal" Muslim ban.
As always, Floridians will not be able to enter the building while these Muslims conduct their ritual praying on the floor of the Capitol lobby before they begin harassing our representatives.
Perhaps anti-white racist, sharia-supporter and terrorist sympathizer, Ahmed Bedier, will give a speech again on the Capitol steps where he likes to compare Jesus to the Taliban. More about Ahmed and his terrorist brother HERE

A Wonderful Beginning
Posted 03/01/2018 01:15PM
Middle school students and their families gathered on Sunday for our first Student Diversity Council Potluck Dinner. It was a great event that brought us together in fellowship and to discuss the great work that students in the council are doing.
The students would love to host another at the end of the school year. Be on the lookout for a future announcement.
All are welcome!

People going on holiday to Las Palmas in the Canary Islands can see that there are one or two unusual looking ships moored out there in the harbour, one of them being the drillship the Stena Forth. This ship is now nine years old, but of the latest spec, with DP Class 3 which involves completely duplicated systems including two engine rooms and space for 180 people. Drillships are often favoured for deep water work due to their carrying capacity, but as monohulls are not quite as effective in adverse weather as semi-submersibles.

Silicon Valley is betting that online
At the moment these games are aimed overseas, where attitudes toward gambling are more relaxed and online betting is generally legal, and extremely lucrative. But game companies, from small teams to
Two states, Nevada and Delaware, are already laying the groundwork for virtual gambling. Within months they will most likely be joined by
Bills have also been introduced in
Legislative progress, though, is slow. Opponents include an influential casino industry wary of competition and the traditional antigambling factions, who oppose it on moral grounds.Continue reading the main story
Silicon Valley is hardly discouraged. Companies here believe that online gambling will soon become as simple as buying an e-book or streaming a movie, and that the convenience of being able to bet from your couch, surrounded by virtual friends, will offset the lack of glittering ambience found in a real-world casino. Think you can get a field of corn in FarmVille, the popular Facebook game, to grow faster than your brother-in-law's? Five bucks says you cannot.
"Gambling in the U.S. is controlled by a few land-based casinos and some powerful Indian casinos," said Chris Griffin, chief executive of Betable, a
Betable has set up shop in San Francisco, where 15 studios are now using its back-end platform. "This is the next evolution in games, and kind of ground zero for the developer community," Mr. Griffin said.
Overseas, online betting is generating an estimated $32 billion in annual revenue — nearly the size of the United States casino market. Juniper Research estimates that betting on mobile devices alone will be a $100 billion worldwide industry by 2017.
"Everyone is really anticipating this becoming a huge business," said Chris DeWolfe, a co-founder of the pioneering social site Myspace, who is throwing his energies into a gaming studio with a gambling component backed by, among others, the personal investment funds of
As companies eagerly wait for the American market to open up, they are introducing betting games in
Zynga, the company that developed FarmVille, Mafia Wars, Words With Friends and many other popular casual games, is advertising the imminent release of its first betting games in Britain. "All your favorite Zynga game characters will be there, except this time they'll have real money prizes to offer you," an ad says. "Play online casino games for pennies and live the dream!"
Mr. DeWolfe's studio, SGN, is also on the verge of starting its first real-money games in Britain. "Those companies that have a critical mass of users that are interested in playing real-money games are going to be incredibly valuable," he said.
Mark Pincus, the chief executive of Zynga, said the company was just following the market. "There is no question there is great interest from all kinds of people in games of chance, whether it is for real money or virtual rewards," he said. Zynga, which has missed revenue expectations in the last year, is making gambling a centerpiece of its new strategy. It has just applied to Nevada for a gambling license.
Casual gaming first blossomed on Facebook's Web site, where players could readily corral friends into their games. It is now being rethought for mobile devices, so people can play in brief snippets as they wait for a bus or a sandwich.
Some games mimic the slots and poker found in casinos; others emphasize considerably more creativity. The vast majority of casual game players play at no charge. A small number buy virtual objects in the game to speed their play or increase their status.
Tech executives expect an equally small number to play for real money but believe they will bet heavily, making them much more valuable to the gaming companies. By Betable's estimate, the lifetime value of a casual player is $2 versus $1,800 for a real-money player.
Big Fish Studios, a
"Like in Vegas, some people get lucky and some don't," he added.
The powerful Las Vegas and Indian casinos have mixed attitudes toward online gambling. Caesars Entertainment in 2011 acquired the Israeli start-up Playtika, developer of the popular Facebook game Slotomania, for about $180 million, offering it a springboard into the digital world. But
In New Jersey, Gov.
The measure, which is likely to be refined and successfully resubmitted in the next few months, followed the state Constitution, which mandates that
Meeting those last two requirements seems a tall order to Doug Creutz, an analyst at Cowen & Company who follows online gambling closely. "The Internet isn't bound geographically," he said. "There are other problems too, like preventing money laundering. Online gambling is going to be a complex issue that will take a while to sort out."
In the meantime, though, he notes that games themselves are sometimes changing to incorporate elements akin to gambling. Diablo III, the latest version of the popular role-playing series from Blizzard, was released last year with an in-game auction house where players could buy and sell loot that they had found. If they chose, they could literally take the profits out of the game.
Since the loot was randomly generated, like the numbers on a slot machine, Blizzard had to remove the auction house game from the South Korean version of the game to satisfy the country's strict antigambling provisions.
Cesar and Edgar Miranda are two young developers who have won hackathons, where the goal is to build a game in a weekend. The brothers, who rent rooms from their parents in
It is a simple variation of the grabbing game found in amusement arcades for decades: successfully secure a toy from a pile and you win. If Apple approves, the game, offering cash prizes, will be available in Britain later this month. A virtual money version will be available in the United States.
"We saw the opportunity here," said Cesar Miranda, 24. "Anyone can jump in and try and grab a piece of this market while it is still fresh. There's a low entry to failure."
Neither he nor his brother, born in
