Use that damn wiki because you've got issues
This third iDevBlogADay post describes the combination of the previously outlined issue tracking and knowledge management that ultimately culminates in the creation of a digital hub for everything iOS related at Spielhaus.
The Problem
Using specialized tools for specific purposes is a good practice in nearly all situations. However, we humans have a hard time when it comes to multitasking. Constantly switching tools while working is not ideal. Especially when the end goal is to keep track of a complex process such as iOS development. Managing one's knowledge in one place and tracking issues in another, is fine until the need arises to combine bits and pieces from both systems. The ideal supporting environment would be an ecosystem where problem descriptions (issues) are placed along with stored knowledge. If the tools involved don't provide this feature, the developer needs to take care of it himself. Again, this is not ideal because every free mental resource should be dedicated to problem solving and not be used for gathering supporting info.
But what's wrong with the status quo?
As with the former posts – the point is still valid: Nothing is wrong unless you want to give up potential of optimization.
Combining issue tracking with knowledge management
If you followed the previous posts it's not hard to guess that two software packages built by the same developers were meant for each other. Jira (issue tracking) and Confluence (wiki) can be set up to cooperate. The objective is supposedly simple – show relevant issues right on specific wiki pages together with insightful statistics.
Jira can be set to trust queries from Confluence (and vice versa). The workflow involves telling Jira to trust Confluence and then add gadget links from Jira to Confluence.
Gadgets can display charts, the output of search filters or links to other tools – all of this in the context of issue tracking.
I would like to demonstrate this with our flagship app Today Todo. The main wiki page functions as a container for all enclosed pages – each sub-page contains specialized information. When accessing the Today Todo page, I can already see all background information concerning the project. It would be great if I could see the relevant issues from Jira.
As you can see from the screenshot, I can pull in any number of issues related to the development of Today Todo. These are by no means static lists. The content is fetched remotely from Jira and displayed on the wiki page. Furthermore clicking any links (or chart slices) forwards to the corresponding issue(s) in Jira.
This way we have built a cockpit with all relevant info for the project. I resisted the urge to go crazy with charts and extensive analysis data. I have only included the tasks for the actual and the next version together with the feature requests (not visible). These gadgets can be placed anywhere on the wiki concluding their greatest benefit of encapsulating the supporting material with the problem description. Similar to connecting data and code in object-oriented programming. When Trung and I are working on one topic – say implementing a "seamless synching of data between instances of Today Todo" – we have the problem description (feature request) together with all supporting material about synching right in one place.
Since I wanted to keep this post short – that's all about it for now. I hope that this series of posts helped some of you with this exciting voyage of ours that iOS development turns out to be.
I am not sure what will follow next week now that I am done with my favorite topics. However these <insert app here> post mortems seem be en vogue and maybe it is time to review what worked and what didn't for Today Todo and Spielhaus over the last year.

N.C.A.A. Says Auriemma Violated a Rule
STORRS, Conn. — The N.C.A.A. determined that Geno Auriemma, the women's basketball coach at Connecticut, committed a secondary rules violation when he made a phone call last month to congratulate the Little League World Series star Mo'ne Davis, the university announced Thursday.
Athletic Director Warde Manuel said UConn accepted the decision but did not agree with it.
Auriemma told reporters Wednesday that he talked to Davis, 13, at the Little League headquarters during the Little League World Series.
Davis, who is also a standout basketball player in Philadelphia, was the 18th girl to play in the event and is the only one to earn a win as a pitcher. She told reporters during the World Series that her dream was to play point guard for the Huskies.
Manuel said Auriemma checked with the school's compliance department before the call and was told that Davis would not be considered a prospective student-athlete and that the call was permissible.
"There's guys playing college basketball driving around in cars that cost more than my house, and we're worried about a phone call that I made?" Auriemma said.
UConn said it was not sure if penalties would be imposed.

Thanks, Pro!
Expired IDs should not be accepted to prove DOB.
I Definitions
II My Case
III Opponent's Case
IV Conclusion
I Definitions
Expired: Cease to be valid, typically after a fixed period of time [1. http://tinyurl.com...]
ID: Identity document which is used to verify certain aspects of a person's personal identity, usually a driver's license [2. http://tinyurl.com...]
Accepted: receive willingly something given or offered [3. http://tinyurl.com...]
DOB: Date of birth
II My Case
The rule of law exists for a societally beneficial reason: to maintain social order. The social order would encounter turbulence, if IDs were acceptable in proving DOB even when they have expired. Before we examine the laws regarding this, we must ask ourselves what purpose proving one's age serves. Well, certain items and substances such as tobacco, alcohol, spray paint, and weapons have minimum age requirements, in order to prevent minors who are not entirely ready for such materials from obtaining them. This minimum age requirement serves an integral role in promoting the social order by discouraging juvenile delinquency and drug use. These min. age requirements are codified into law for the sake of protecting society, and consequently must have a method of enforcement to be effective. This method of enforcement is the mandatory examination by shop owners or clerks of the identification of patrons within questionable age ranges (e.g. if a patron is 24 who seeks to buy alcohol, the clerk will check his ID to ensure he is of legal age). Under the REAL ID Act,
Full legal name,
Date of birth,
Unique, identifying number,
Principal residence address,
Front-facing photograph of the applicant
are required on an identification, and in section 208 says,
"(9) Establish fraudulent document recognition training programs for appropriate employees engaged in the issuance of drivers' licenses and identification cards." [4. http://www.gpo.gov...]
"Under the REAL ID Act and this final rule, those
individuals would now be unable to obtain REAL ID driver's licenses or
would only obtain a temporary driver's license that clearly indicates
on its face an expiration date tied to the expiration of the holder's" [5. http://www.gpo.gov...]
Expired IDs are much more likely to be discarded than legal IDs, and are therefore much more likely to be obtained by others. Following from that, a teenager could use the expired ID to represent himself and purchase alcohol, tobacco, dry ice, guns, and other items which reasonably have minimum ages. If allowing this was left as a viable option, fraud would be created by this loophole through which fraud, deception, and juvenile delinquency would be exacerbated. So, expired IDs should not be accepted to prove DOB, because doing so would generate fraud.
The REAL ID ACt states in section 208,
"(9) Establish fraudulent document recognition training programs for appropriate employees engaged in the issuance of drivers' licenses and identification cards."
And the consequences are stringent. [6. http://www.alcoholpolicy.niaaa.nih.gov...]
Opponent's Case
My opponent's statements scarcely admit to being collectively called a case. He makes only assertions with limited development.
"A person's date of birth does not change so an ID that is expired should be acceptable to prove you are old enough to drink, gamble, smoke, etc."
A person's date of birth does not change, but the method in which they present their age may change, as in the cases of fraud that I have (and the REAL ID Act) taken into account. You can't just look one-dimensionally at the law, you have to ascertain its effects on how the world works. This law is intended to prevent juvenile delinquency, underage drug use, and encourage legitimate business transactions without fraud.
"The expiration date should only matter in terms of what the ID was given for (driving, weapons permit, etc.)"
That is an incomprehensible thought and is in direct contradiction to what you previously stated. If the expiration date matters on a driver's license, then your entire case falls apart, because if it matters, then you have to accept the fact that a driver's license is the primary form of identification in the United States when used to purchase items and services (e.g. lap dances) which have minimum age restrictions. Also, this debate is on proving DOB, and the importance of legitimate identification, not the expiration dates of weapons permits...
Expired IDs are not legal forms of identification, and accepting them as such leads to fraud and social disorder. The law is clear, unambiguous, and reasonable on this matter, and serves to promote social order and decrease fraud.
Please, Vote Con
Secondly, you say we can't accept expired IDs because they are more likely to get discarded and picked up by juveniles. People who want to use IDs improperly are more likely to have their own ID made that has THEIR picture and name on it and not somebody else's or may use a relative's but not some random person who threw it away. Besides, they would have to (or logically should) find somebody who has the same looks, height, age, etc. for it to be reasonably believable anyway. I bet if you poll 100 people who are mis using IDs I bet 90%+ will have obtained it through a method OTHER than digging through the garbage. Give me a break with that concern.
Third, I do say the expiration date matters on a drivers license, but only IF that person is driving. The DOB portion is all that matters when one is buying beer.
Fourth, I don't accept that a driver's license is the main form of identification in the U.S. There are military IDs, passports, ID card, etc. many of which have expiration dates. Weapons permits are also state issued and many have DOB on them so this not just restricted to Driver's Licenses, but that really isn't the crux of my argument anyway.
Fifth, I would not consider using an expired ID to prove your age 'FRAUD' even if I accept your argument that they are not legal or good enough to prove how old you. Fraud involves an attempt to deceive. That is right out of the dictionary. Fraud is using another's ID or making up a fake one. There are IDs that allow the person to keep them after they expire. I have a weapon's permit right here that is expired and has my DOB on it. The government let me keep it and I don't think I am committing 'FRAUD.'
Sixth, if the government were to change the law and allow a shopkeeper to accept expired IDs as proof somebody is old enough to buy that beer, it would hardly lead to "SOCIAL DISORDER." give me a break. Social disorder are riots anarchy.
I thank my opponent for continuing the debate :)
This was essentially Pro's argument:
"First off, I am not interested in "winning" this argument on this web site or getting positive comments or having some "judge" critique the argument or getting points."
That is perfectly satisfactory to me; I'll accept your concession soon, if that is truly how you feel. I'll also let the judges know how little you think of their skills to categorically evaluate the debate.
"I am also not interested in using fancy language or citations. I am also not interested in the law or the courts or the constitution. This is a philoosphical question of sorts and I don't care if some judge, politician or even majority of the population supports your side."
I will accept your concession of the spelling and grammar point as well as the sources points. The law doesn't exist arbitrarily as to rule it irrelevant in an argument of an imperative (should, must, etcetera); the purpose of just law exists because it codifies the philosophical* and moral norms to which society should adhere. Law is considered applied ethics. [1]
"I want actual original counter arguments, not simply citing a law...government."
It sounds like you are ordering me around to provide you with an assignment. Ask this question on Yahoo Answers; I'm sure they'll love to do your homework.
See my added contention "Identification without government" for a response to your philosophical and reasoning question.
"Secondly, you say we can't accept expired IDs because they are more likely to get discarded and picked up by juveniles...threw it away."
Both forms are used and both forms are fraud. It's much easier for a person to use a family member or friend's old ID for a night to buy alcohol or get into a nightclub than to spend $200-300 on a decent-looking ID which has the only function of lying about one's age. The fraud that you mentioned is not germane to the resolution, so let's try to keep it pertinent.
"Besides, they would have to (or logically should) find somebody who has the same looks, height, age, etc. for it to be reasonably believable anyway...that concern."
I think it's more likely that a person would use the old ID of a family member or friend before they would illegally purchase a fake ID. I am currently conducting two polls on the subject which I will post the results of in the next round.
"Third, I do say the expiration date matters on a drivers license, but only IF that person is driving. The DOB portion is all that matters when one is buying beer."
Thank you for asserting the Con position on the resolution. You could have added that the ID is no longer valid in a government system or in a spontaneous system to permit that action.
"Fourth, I don't accept that a driver's license is the main form of identification in the U.S. There are military IDs, passports, ID card, etc. many of which have expiration dates..."
This argument is a bit like saying, "Pie isn't the best food, because cake is pretty good too." Driver's licenses are used to identify you when you are pulled over by the police. They are used every time one makes a bank deposit. They are used when purchasing alcohol, tobacco, firearms, fireworks, spray paint. They are used when applying for a marriage license or pilot's license. They are used when getting into a nightclub, a gentlemen's club, and bars. They are used when renting a car, plane, or boat. They are used when applying to college and other institutions. In fact, since transactions and proof of ID have become so linked together, twenty-four US states have added magnetic strips to their state driver's licenses in order to turn them into debit cards. [2]
"Fifth, I would not consider using an expired ID to prove your age 'FRAUD' ..."
Fraud is the wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in unfair advantage or personal gain, so if someone uses an illegitimate ID to purchase or attend something with a minimum age requirement, they are committing fraud in the eyes of the social order, the law, and the spontaneous transactional order. Once again, I do not care about your weapons permit, and since it is not a primary form of identification, you should refrain from mentioning it for the entirety of the rest of this debate.
"Sixth, if the government were to change the law and allow a shopkeeper to accept expired IDs as proof somebody is old enough to buy that beer, it would hardly lead to "SOCIAL DISORDER." give me a break. Social disorder are riots anarchy."
That is true, but only because the moral and social framework in the absence of government will compensate for that lack. Now, if the government mandated that everyone be allowed to purchase drugs at any age regardless of the pertinent sagacity of the store-keeper, then there would be social disorder. I explain this in my added contention:
Identification without government
The point is that even without a system of coercion forcing people to comply with the REAL ID ACT or state laws pertaining to ID checks, people will naturally shy away from handing drugs to young children, because it's a moral norm. The system of government monopoly on the issuance of legitimate identification for this sort of use is unnecessary. Private identification centers would spring up in the absence of the government control in order to facilitate the trust in forming contracts and buying and selling. The integrity of these systems would be held in check by the media who would report bad centers. When the new centers would issue IDs, they would naturally require proof beyond reasonable doubt that "you are who you say you are." And in turn, people with whom you make contracts, deals, or agreements would rely on your identification as the means by which to hold you accountable. Private stores would most likely establish their own rules regarding the purchase of drugs, and would require identification for young-looking customers based on the inherent moral responsibility in genuine human interaction. [3] [4]
Since private enterprise naturally runs every operation more efficiently and effectively than the government, the expiration on IDs would be shorter than government issued IDs, because when a case compromises the integrity of an ID issuer, his store may be untrusted, disreputable, and following from that: unprofitable. It is quite reasonable to assume that since firms would maintain their own minimum age requirements and identification would arise from the natural order of protecting natural rights of contract and exchange, that expired IDs would not be considered legitimate sources of identification and could even harm a store's reputation and by extension, the store's profit. Stories such as, "Chuck's gas station selling alcohol to 8-year-olds with expired IDs" would definitely deter some customers in the same manner that the Catholic Sex Abuse Scandal deterred church offerings in the order of billions of dollars.
Therefore, identification would arise out of the spontaneous natural order to protect natural contract and exchange rights and the DOB checking would be more effective and appropriate than government-mandated rules.
With or without government, expired IDs would not be accepted to prove DOB.
People, through moral responsibility, care about one another and set private rules to ensure the interests of both parties in a transaction.
My opponent has failed to present a case and thus fails in his burden of proof. I have exceeded my burden of broof.

Tradewise 64 – An Example of Bad Web Design for June 16, 2015
June 15th, 2015 12:12 am by Vincent Flanders
Submitters' comments: A nauseous slideshow of giant images – my favourite is the filthy hand grabbing the chess piece.
Vincent Flanders' comments: My major confusion was over trying to figure out what the page was about. Once I understood it was about auto insurance for chess players, it all made sense – except for the need for the background images. They don't show up on iPad or iPhone version – just the desktop. Lose them. I also don't understand the controls at the bottom right of the screen. The sound icon seems to have no function.
The iPhone version seems to be acceptable. I'd like it if the tagline about being the insurer of the chess federation were more readable.

Coatesville, Pennsylvania (October 15, 2012) – The Coatesville Solar Initiative (CSI) received Conditional Use approval on October 11, 2012 from the Board of Commissioners in Caln Township, Chester County, PA – to move forward with the largest solar project in Pennsylvania to power a school campus.
The Coatesville Area School District will purchase 6 megawatts of clean renewable energy in a long term Power Purchase Agreement.
"This innovative project has far-reaching benefits for our local economy, school kids and the environment," said Bob Keares, Managing Partner of the Coatesville Solar Initiative. "Everything about this project is local – our investors and workforce; as well as goods and services to be sourced from the area. CSI will expose our labor force to new skills in areas including project design and financing, metals fabrication and electrical installation of large scale solar. "
Total capital expenditures for CSI are expected to be $35 million, with $12 million spent locally over the course of construction.
"We are excited about the significant job growth that will accompany the state's largest solar project and are proud to see the project developed right here in Chester County," said Gary Smith, President and CEO of the Chester County Economic Development Council. "The CCEDC's Southeastern Pennsylvania Smart Energy Initiative, an Industry Partnership, is poised to support the workforce and economic development opportunities created by the Coatesville Solar Initiative, particularly in the areas of training, project design and development, financing, component fabrication, and installation."
"While the general energy market has become increasingly volatile, solar facilities have a predictable output at a fixed price," said Richard Como, Superintendent of Coatesville Schools. "A project of this size will save the School District hundreds of thousands of dollars in energy costs over the life of a long term Power Purchase Agreement, allowing funds to go towards more productive uses."
CSI will feature a number of advanced design and engineering components. Stormwater management was central to local permitting of the project, which will be built on a south-facing slope. Filtrexx® Slope Stabilization & Erosion Control Technology will be deployed to create 22,000 linear feet of permanent earthen berms.
Concerns of residents near the 46 acre site were addressed in a series of public hearings, neighborhood meetings and regular newsletters. Over 25 acres will be kept as open space, with fencing and a heavy vegetative buffer around the 20.6 acres of panels. Open space will help maintain wildlife habitat patterns. Setbacks were increased to 100 feet to the north and up to 400 feet to the south of the project site.
The Coatesville Solar Initiative will help stabilize electricity prices for the neighboring school district and ease already strained budgets. Economic development benefits include over 50 workers employed to complete construction, with two full time equivalent positions throughout the operational phase.
And, local sourcing ranging - from civil engineering and mechanical components to grounds maintenance and security.
About the developer: Keares Electrical Contracting, INC is a family owned business located in Exton, PA. They have 100 employees and have been in business 40 years. Keares has installed over six megawatts of rooftop and ground mount solar systems. Clients include retailers such as Lowe's, Home Depot, Michaels, Linens 'N Things and Wal-Mart.

Deathwatch: GAME to open dedicated Xbox store
GAME, video games vendor, went under, then rose again which was good news for people's jobs. However, it looks like the company hasn't at all learned any lessons from the previous business model that failed it so badly.
That's because GAME have announced plans to open a dedicated Xbox Store later this week.
That'll be the same Xbox that is restricting the sale of pre-owned titles for its new One console which in turn, has made the new Microsoft machine a less-than-appealing prospect for potential buyers.
As such, GAME is focusing on a console that, currently, is very, very unpopular. The only thing GAME could've done worse is to focus entirely on the dreadful, useless Wii U.
For the three interested people out there, this GAME Xbox Store will open this Thursday, on June 20th, at Shoreditch's Boxpark shopping centre.
They describe it as a "one-of-a-kind concept store" that features "playable gaming pods, head-to-head challenge areas, a Microsoft Surface display and the latest and greatest in Xbox hardware and software".
We'll ready GAME's obituary page again.

- MaximusI am buying the xbox one as most importantly it has the best exclusive games. Plus with microsofts network of servers gameplay with more than 32 players will be the norm.
- LiamThey are probably getting a huge wad of cash from Microsoft to do this.
- shakesheadsadlyLiam +1
- ttI was going to say the same as Liam. This is all MS and not GAME. Probably trying to flog Surfaces.
- PhilWho cares about trading in games. Why bother sell a game for £3 that you paid £40 for. It is the stores that are making money from it not us. Kinect always on. well I think that's quite cool. Just don't stand in front of it with your balls out. I'll certainly be splashing out for the Xbox One.
- Durrbrain@Phil , yeah I'd much rather sell my games on eBay than trade them in at GAME for £3. Oh wait! I can't do that anymore due to Microsoft's controls. Viva la Xbox.
- Her L.The miniscule silver lining to this cloud of fail is that this store sounds like it is going back to gaming stores of old, which used to have consoles to demo games on. These days at Game you're lucky if you see a gaming pod with a faulty controller stuck on settings screen.
- jokester@Phil Apparently you don't realise that you can sell your stuff on ebay / play.com / amazon / facebook / etc for MUCH MORE than the con-merchant game shops will give you!
- BendyBit of a non-story now, since Microsoft have backed down to public demand and got rid of all their Third Reich restrictions on second-hand / permanently on-line shizzle. Anyone would think they're a bit scared of Sony's cheaper / faster / better console (cue the fanboy abuse from the men in green)

Labour councillors will be raising the continued closure of East Barnet Health Centre at the Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee on Monday 9 February in a Member's Item submitted by Cllr Amy Trevethan - Underhill Councillor and Labour parliamentary candidate for Chipping Barnet.
Local patients and residents who want their Health Centre reopened after being boarded up for eight months to remove asbestos have kept up the pressure by putting their case directly to the centre owners at a meeting on Wednesday 4 February, supported by East Barnet Labour councillor Philip Cohen. But they have still not been given a definite re-opening date or even a date when refurbishment work might start.
At that meeting the health centre owners, NHS Property Services, admitted that 'they dropped the ball' by not keeping patients and residents informed about the delays in removing extra asbestos found during the work. The owners set out a number of options including refurbishing the building or demolishing it and rebuilding a totally new centre.
A new centre could take three to four years and frustrated centre users made clear that would be completely unacceptable – they want their centre back even if takes a few months to properly refurbish it.
Due to the closure patients have been forced to go a mile and a 20-minute bus drive away to temporary facilities at Vale Drive clinic in High Barnet for treatment, but they are struggling to get appointments because the clinic's phone system is overloaded due to the strain of the extra calls. The owners accepted they had given wrong information in letters to patients, and they agreed to meet residents regularly to report on progress.
Cllr Cohen had written to NHS Property Services demanding answers to questions such as how much longer would the centre be closed for and would they dispel rumours that the site would be sold to developers. At that point they could not give a timescale but they have stated they have no plans to sell the building.
The issue was also raised at a meeting of East Barnet Residents Association where people said confidential health records were still locked up inside the centre. Residents suggested protesting to Barnet Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) about the closure and those involved in successfully pressing for Brunswick Park health centre to re-open said only direct action and community pressure worked.
Local resident, Helen Pryce, and fellow centre users have set up a Facebook group "East Barnet Health Centre: Come Home".
Helen Pryce said: "We are disappointed that even after the meeting with NHS Property Services we have no start date for the work to begin nor any date for when a decision will be made. We feel that we have been left high and dry and excluded from the process. No consultation was made until after we started to protest .We do not feel that even after our views have been sought our wishes will be adhered to."
Cllr Amy Trevethan said: "We really need some answers about when the East Barnet health centre will be re-opened, and what alternative arrangements will be put in place for patients in the meantime as it is just not good enough to leave patients high and dry for months on end with absolutely no resolution in sight."
Cllr Philip Cohen said: "I am amazed and impressed by Helen and her colleagues who have stood up for the rights of local people to have healthcare delivered close to where they live. I could tell from the faces of the owners that this has been a wake-up call to ensure they are transparent in their dealings and end the closure as soon as possible."

More about taster cruises…
If you've never actually been on a cruise before, you'll probably have one question at the forefront of your mind: "Will I actually like it?"
It's understandable to be concerned. After all once you're on board and heading across the ocean it's impossible to change your mind and go home. You could book onto a fourteen night cruise thinking it will be a dream come true, only to find it is a floating nightmare you cannot escape from. Many people love cruising and can think of nothing better than escaping on holiday like this for as long as possible. But they don't suit everyone.
This is why taster cruises have been created. They provide a way to sample cruising for the first time, often providing just one or two nights on board a cruise liner so you can see what to expect.
Why book a taster cruise?
A taster cruise is the perfect way to discover what cruising is all about, before you take a longer trip. As such it can save you a lot of money if it turns out that cruising isn't for you.
Even if you have been on a cruise before there are still good reasons to book short cruises such as these. The best example would be if you were used to one particular cruise line and you wanted to give another one a try.
For example you might be used to going with Royal Caribbean, but you've seen a cruise arranged by Virgin that looks promising. A taster cruise is the ideal way to find out what you can expect.
You could also use this type of cruise to try out a particular type of cabin. Inside cabins are cheaper than outside ones, but you may be unsure as to whether you'd like a cabin without a view. So why not try one on a short cruise to see whether it would be ideal?
Do you embark and disembark in the same place?
It all depends on the cruise you pick. Some are known as repositional cruises. These entail leaving from one destination and arriving in another. For example you might get on a cruise liner in Newcastle and go to Southampton and end your short taster cruise there. Other cruises may leave and return to the same place, so consider which method is going to appeal to you most.
If you select a taster cruise that starts at one port and ends in another, you must consider how you will return to your starting point, particularly if you left your car there.
As you can see, taster cruises are really useful for a number of reasons. While they have been created as a temptation for newcomers to consider, they are the perfect way to explore other cruise lines and ships too. So why not try one and see what you think?

Janey breaks out her tits and follows them to Stardom
There is an old say that goes, "Don't judge a book by its cover". Never before has that been as true as it is with Janey Reynolds (Joanne Frawley), who was born in Canada in 1943. Even in many of her shoots she wears very little makeup and she has a very sweet, innocent vibe to her, but then she takes off her shirt and unleashes her monstrous, all natural breasts and you just know that a girl with a body like this has to be up for some naughty good times.
It was that naughty side that pulled Janey into modeling. After just a few topless shoots photographers were clamoring to work with her and put her (and those jugs) into their 8mm boobie flicks. If you haven't seen these vintage films with Janey naked, come join Vintage Cuties now, as we got you covered. Her looks and fabulous 43-25-38 (109-64-97 cm) body made her the perfect model for softer stuff where she just showed some sideboob or she was almost fully clothed and just flashing a hint-of-tit as well as more graphic stuff where she got fully nude and showed off every inch of her fantastic body.
Janey Reynolds AKA Frawley porn photos:
Calendars, magazines and movies, Janey gets naked everywhere
As her popularity continued to expand, Janey Reynolds found herself getting naked in a wide variety of places. This vintage pornstar appeared the 1965 edition of the "Adam calendar" while wearing nothing but a see-thru dress that struggled to contain her killer cans. She also appeared in numerous magazines including "Rhapsody" and "Man's World" where she modeled lingerie, swimsuits, and sexy clothes as well as going fully nude.
Janey never did go full frontal to show her pussy, but we get a glimpse of the bush she might be hiding in a few shoots where she wore some very sheer panties.
By the way, you'll fall in love with these super sexy pornstars:

» Joan Brinkman - 60's All-Natural Breasts Babe Whose Cleavage Men Could get Lost In
This sexy classic pin-up sometimes used different names for different modeling jobs including Janey Frawley, Marli Evans, Jane Reynolds and Ginny Cutrone. Photographers and magazines didn't care what she called herself so long as she pulled out those heavenly hooters!
Janey Reynolds was entirely comfortable being nude on camera. This sexy retro model smiled, laughed, and had a great time as she bounced her big, perky breasts and let her puffy pointed nipples poke out from her skimpy clothes. In one shoot, she starts out in the pool in a sexy bathing suit then she slowly strips it off revealing those great boobs and her fantastic ass as she splashes around in the water getting wet and wild.
Janey Reynolds AKA Frawley porn video:
Janey Reynolds had naked fun behind the scenes of a shoot

But there may be an even better way. What if those carbon emissions, specifically CO2, could be turned into a valuable commodity and even a new source of liquid fuel? We've seen how industry reacted to oil and natural gas.
It doesn't take an economics degree to know that if CO2 becomes something worth money, something that can power cars, heat homes and drive machinery, industry will not let it simply float away into the atmosphere. They will, in fact, find ways of taking it out of the air and anywhere else it may be hiding.
The idea may sound far fetched and it may be. The idea has been discussed for many years and has generally been considered a fringe idea but, in the lab anyway, it has been making progress.
In 2013, an Icelandic company managed to turn CO2 into methane with a little help from a volcano but in that case the volcano was apparently a necessary component and those are a little more difficult to come by and aren't very portable.
A 2014 report in the Guardian, however, hi-lighted several companies using CO2 to create a variety of products, and apparently none of them were using volcanoes to do it. Early in 2015 more breakthroughs were announced in, what is being called, "artificial photosynthesis", that could push the technology along further.
Then, in April, a study on hydrothermal vents showed that life on Earth could have originated due to natural interactions occurring in hydrothermal vents. While doing this research, the scientists discovered something else as well.
According to Astrobiology Magazine: "The study could also have a practical applications, as it provides a method for creating carbon-based chemicals out of CO2, without the need for extreme heat or pressure. This could, in the long term, replace oil as the raw material for products such as plastics, fertilisers and fuels.
This study shows, albeit on a very small scale, that such products, which are currently produced from non-renewable raw materials, can be produced by more environmentally friendly means. If the process can be scaled up to commercially viable scales, it would not only save oil, but use up CO2 – a greenhouse gas – as a raw material."
If this turns out to be a viable technology we know, from experience, that CO2 will become hard to come by. If companies are willing to tear up the oil sands and drive drilling equipment beneath the frigid waters of the arctic to find oil, they will find ways to grab the CO2 which is literally floating around in the air.
Over the last few decades governments have spent billions researching alternative fuel sources. This seems like a no-brainer for some of those funds. If the greenhouse gasses themselves can be the fuel, or one of the fuels, of the 21st century then the problem, it seems, is solved.

For those who are new to this part of the world, Ubud is a quintessential cultural town of Bali, an island in Thailand. It is very famous for its hospitality and is voted as the number one tourist destination in Asia. If you are planning a trip to Bali, then a staying at some of the home stays is a must. Here is a list of 10 most affordable places in Ubud.
1. Puri Saren Agung
Agung is an 80 year old Royal Palace of Ubud. It was first opened to the performing artists from around the world so that they could come, stay and perform here. The tradition still continues. By evening the palace transforms into a courtyard of music and dance. This is therefore a great bed & breakfast place to enjoy your stay at Bali.
2. Fibra Inn
A 30 years old home stay, Fibra Inn is located on the Monkey Forest Road. The inn is reminiscent of a traditional Balinese residence of those days. Exotic flowers adorn the gardens of this home stay. Weekends come with the added treat of Balinese dance performances and the Gamelan orchestra in the courtyard of this lovely inn.
3. Jati Home Stay
Located on a street that is lined with home stays, Jati stands out from the crowd as it is a 20 year old home stay dedicated to the artists and their works. The walls of this house are adorned by works from various art collections of Ubud artists. Though the accommodation is basic, it is very comfortable.
4. Oka Wati Hotel
Oka Wati is among the first home stays of Ubud and has 9 well appointed rooms with a restaurant and swimming pool. The restaurant still serves traditional recipes like the gado-gado salad and Brem rice wine.
5. Warsi's House
The Warsi house is a special place where you can have a look at the Balinese textiles. Though the place is very basic, the hospitality more than makes up for the lack of luxuries. Their banana pancakes are the best breakfast you can have in Bali.
6. Rona
As you enter Ubud, you can gain access to this decade old home stay. The inn has basic facilities including a swimming pool, a funky café and a bookshop. The cost is what entices most people to this place.
7. Putu Putera Homestay
If an authentic home stay is on your charts then Putu Putera should be your choice. This once traditional home of a local artist is even to this day maintained to reflect the glorious past of the Balinese culture and heritage through the art works of famous artists and craftsman of Ubud. With just 5 B&B rooms to stay in, the guests can enjoy traditional Balinese breakfast and watch the creation of ornaments at the garden open to visitors.
8. Tiing Gading Bungalows
If a tranquil hideout is what you are looking for then Tiing Gading Bungalows is the right place. Tall palms and thick bamboo groves are set amid a small river that converts into a pool and spa. With 10 air-conditioned rooms and cooler terraces, guests to Tiing cannot ask for more.
9. Ubud Inn
Offering luxury at affordable prices is not everyone's cup of tea. At Ubud Inn you can have both. Swimming pools surrounded by vegetation, restaurant, spa and bar are what will make your home stay very memorable. At Ubud Inn you are never far away from home as Wi-Fi is free. The rooms are pretty spacious and come with pillar beds equipped with mosquito nets.
10. Family Guest House
The spacious bungalow is ideal for a family trip. Kids will love weaving through the verandahs of the house and wandering off to the family temple. Sumptuous breakfast and spacious rooms is what the Family Guest House promises and gives to its visitors.

If your husband is not happy with his doctors assessment of his case, he is perfectly entitled to get a second opinion. He can request to see a different GP or he could pay to see a private doctor (if he does not have private health insurance). I would recommend a consultant gastroenterologist.
A GP should have done an examination and some tests (blood, urine and stool). There is also a stool test called 'faecal calprotectin' that is very good at ruling out serious bowel disease (if the results come back negative). This could be very reassuring for your husband. If anything abnormal is found, the GP can refer him to see a specialist for further tests as needed. Answered by Dr Emmajane Down.

First 5 LA's board of commissioners has approved a $20 million Oral Health Community Development Project (OHCD) that will allow communities to fluoridate their water supply to prevent tooth decay, especially in young children.
First 5 LA is a child advocacy organization created by California voters that invests tobacco tax revenues in programs that improve the lives of children from prenatal to age five in Los Angeles County. First 5 LA champions health, education and safety issues benefiting young children and their families.
The Oral Health Community Development Project will supplement existing fluoridation efforts of the Metropolitan Water District by helping cities from throughout Los Angeles County achieve optimally fluoridated water levels. Through this project, the county's local water boards and municipalities will have an opportunity to fluoridate water supplies at levels that prevent tooth decay, including dental caries in children.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, dental caries are the most common preventable chronic disease in the U.S., and tooth decay is the number one reason that children miss school.
"Today's commission approval of my oral health initiative means that thousands of kids in Los Angeles County will grow up with healthier, stronger teeth," said Los Angeles County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, who is First 5 LA board chairman. "In addition, their families will avoid the inconvenience of unnecessary trips to the dentist for fillings, extractions and other painful and entirely avoidable procedures."
In Los Angeles County, several cities — including Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, and Long Beach — already have optimally-fluoridated water. Santa Monica's water supply is expected to be optimally fluoridated in the coming months.
"First 5 LA's commission believes oral health to be a critical part of the overall healthy growth and development of a child," said Jonathan Fielding, director of the Department of Public Health and health officer for Los Angeles County. "We are excited about this project, which is such an important investment in the well-being of our children," Fielding added.
The Oral Health Community Development Project funding will be available to interested cities over the course of three years. Eligible applicants must demonstrate their capacity to execute and maintain fluoridation in their communities. First 5 LA monies will fund the infrastructure needed for water to be fluoridated.

How many times have you thought, "I need new jeans!" but then put it off because you dread the thought of shopping for a new pair? With so many styles, washes and fits, denim shopping can seem daunting! To make things easier, we're sharing our top five tried-and-true rules to keep in mind when looking for the perfect pair of jeans.
1.) Choose a wash that's best suited for your lifestyle:
Are you a working gal? If you need a pair that's office-appropriate and would look great with your blazer, go for a darker wash. Darker washes can be dressed up or down and can easily go from day to night.
Are you a mama on the go? If comfy jeans are your daily go-to, opt for lighter or distressed washes, which are perfect for that casual, laid-back look and get even better the more you wear them.
Dojo Trouser $189 | 7 for all Mankind
2.) Buy them a little snug:
You don't want to buy a pair that's tight, but they should be comfortably snug when you try them on. All denim expands a little with wear – but a good pair won't totally stretch out. Many quality denim brands incorporate spandex or Lyrcra in the fabric, which means added elasticity helps soften them to your shape as you wear them (without giving you the dreaded bagging at the knees or seat).
The Looker Skinny $189| Mother Denim
3.) Get the hem right:
Jeans that are too long can ruin your whole look. Having them properly tailored to ensure you get the right length (and avoid bagging/bunching) is key. Pick the shoes you'll most likely wear with your jeans and bring them with you when getting them hemmed. Make sure you wash your new denim once before you take them to a tailor. (Fun fact: Garys' offers free hemming with the purchase of any pair of regular-priced denim!).
Runway Flare $180 | Mother Denim
4.) Choose the style that's most flattering for your body type:
Leg Cut: The skinny jean style is so popular because it's extremely flattering on many body types (and pairs nicely with those tall boots). But they don't work well for all body types. If you want a "skinny" look but need a little more room in the calf area, try a straight leg style that hangs a little looser from the knee to the ankle. Boyfriend jeans are basically the opposite of skinny jeans, giving you more room everywhere – they are perfect if you're going for a casual, comfortable, lived-in look. If you want to give your skinnies or boyfriends a rest and try something new, go for a trouser or flared jean. Both styles have made a huge comeback! Flared jeans are quite elongating, so they can be especially flattering for women with shorter legs and trousers can be a nice leg shape for a woman with curvier hips.
Rise: When choosing denim, the style of the leg isn't the only thing to consider – the rise (the distance between the middle of the crotch seam and the top of the waistband) is equally important! Your body type, the length of your torso and the look you are trying to achieve should guide you toward the proper rise. Mid-rise tends to be the most common and universally flattering because it generally hits right above the hip bone, preventing any slipping when you sit down or bend at the waist. We aren't seeing as much of a low-rise these days but this can be more comfortable for a petite frame and can help elongate the midsection. The rise that has made the biggest comeback in the fashion sense is the high-rise; we are seeing this rise styled in a more forward way with tops tucked in to really emphasize the high waist. As for comfort, this rise is best suited for gals with longer torsos and may not be the best option for short-waisted women as it can make the waist appear even shorter.

5.) Remember that high-quality denim is worth every penny:
With denim, it's typically true that you get what you pay for. It's worth investing in high quality denim instead of spending less on poorer quality jeans that won't last long or wear well. The "memory" of a quality denim is stronger so you get minimal stretching/bagging. They can be washed and dried while still maintaining their shape and finish, and you can get YEARS of use out of them (and in most cases, they get better after a little wear!). A truly high-quality pair of jeans may come with a higher price tag, but you'll definitely get your money's worth!
We hope you'll find these tips useful when you're on the hunt for the perfect pair of jeans! Stop by the store to check out our current denim faves!
Here's to great style!

I was sceptical at first that I could lose weight on an e–mail program, but was soon an enthusiastic believer when I lost 1½kg in the first week.
I didn´t realise the poor eating habits that I had grown into during my working day. I only spend about 5 minutes at the end of day to enter my daily food intake into Marion´s workbook. I then e–mail my food work book to Marion at the end of each week, and look forward to receiving the feedback, guidance and motivation.
It is Marion´s food guidance along with the exercise plan that has allowed me to start feeling better about myself.
When I started to exercise again I found it a pain but now, I really enjoy exercising knowing that this is keeping me healthy and losing weight with the food plan.
It is extremely easy to follow and simple to use. And the biggest advantage I have found with this program, is I am not alone, Marion is there with you all the way, with her encouraging phone calls and e–mails.
Believe me it has been a lot easier with her help. Now I find myself never thinking about bad food choices, the weight is coming off, only 3kgs to GO!
Thanks Maz for all your support.

Cataclysmic events
Check with your city zoning board of trustees to check whether your living arrangement is situated in a territory that is known for surges, tornadoes, or another sort of cataclysmic event. You need to ensure your home protection covers these sorts of harms, particularly on the off chance that you live almost a waterway, lake, or in a known sea tempest or tornado zone. This scope adds extra cost to your premium yet is well justified, despite all the trouble. Without this sort of security, you may need to supplant your rooftop or wipe water harm out of your own pocket.
Augmentations to Your Property
In the event that you have a chimney or a lake in your patio, you need to ensure your home protection covers these augmentations. Chimneys are a hazard and ought to be incorporated into your premium. Lakes ought to be included also since they are frequently viewed as a surge chance. A swimming pool represents a wellbeing danger, so ensure this is likewise noted in your premium. You would prefer not to leave any range of your home without appropriate insurance, particularly when they are not viewed as standard for a house.
In the event that you have a security framework, fire cautions, fenced yard, and floodlights, your home protection ought to mirror these additional precautionary measures. Your specialist should compensate these security measures by offering you a lower premium. Look for an organization that will enable you to have a lessening in your superior sum for having these precautionary measures introduced. Likewise, ensure they are noted as a component of your superior when you initially acquire this sort of insurance for your living arrangement.
Substitution Esteem
The substitution estimation of your home ought to be incorporated into your strategy. This is the cost to modify your property sans preparation, not the present market esteem. You should know this number and can build your premium by a couple of dollars consistently in the event that you believe you have to expand the dollar sum for the substitution of your living arrangement. It's most secure to have the most scope conceivable as opposed to attempting to spare a couple of dollars en route.

ANC applauds the Springboks
19 February 2008
The African National Congress would like to take this opportunity to congratulate our national rugby team, the Springboks, in receiving the 2008 Laureus World Team of the Year award.
With this prestigious award, they have once more shown that South Africa is a force to be reckoned with and that we can take on the best of what the sporting world has to offer and come out on top.
We join millions of our people in applauding the Springboks for this achievement. They carried with them the dreams and aspirations of the whole country and indeed, did not disappoint us.
The support for our national teams is an indication that sports in our country is a major transformation tool and has the ability to unite all of us. It is during these events that South Africans from all walks of life put aside their differences and stand united behind our national teams.
As we move towards the 2010 Soccer World Cup, we call upon our national soccer team to follow in the footsteps of the national rugby team and ensure that the trophy remains in South Africa.
Issued by:
African National Congress

We spent another day at the repair shop. Our "mechanic" came up with two used regulators from Barranquilla but both of them were not working. We immediately ordered a brand new one from Bogota, the capital of Colombia. Tomorrow afternoon we'll hopefully receive the new regulator. Additionally there is still the dynamo which is not working properly. One week is over and Herbie is not reanimated yet. But we hope that we'll be back on the road very soon and that our ocean carrier will atone for what we're going through. However we are also very sorry not to be able to post photos with Herbie exploring South America yet.
It's Not Over Yet

All I'm gonna do is just go on and do what I feel.
All I'm writing is just what I feel, that's all. I just keep it almost naked.
Even Castles made of sand, fall into the sea, eventually.
I'm the one that has to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life, the way I want to.
Music makes me high on stage, and that's the truth. It's like being almost addicted to music.
Music is a safe type of high. It's more the way it was supposed to be. That's where highness came, I guess, from anyway. It's nothing but rhythm and motion
White collar conservative flashin down the street, pointing that plastic finger at me, they all assume my kind will drop and die, but I'm gonna wave my freak flag high.
Not necessarily stoned..but beautiful

The importance of anatomical localization: The Scalenes
When needling, whether it be dry kneeling or acupuncture, precision is key (1, 2). It is often said that "if you don't know where your needle is, you probably shouldn't be there". This is very true and in areas like the apex of the lung field, especially prudent.

Ahh, yes... The Trapezius
We all know that needling the trapezius can be a great thing, especially with the typical "J" referral pattern working so well for headache and neck pain.
We also know there is much literature to be found regarding its efficacy for: mechanical neck pain (1,2), myofascial pain (2-4), range of motion (5), local blood flow (6), . . .

A great Exercise for Obliques
It can be hard to hit those obliques. They are especially important since they are king when it comes to saggital and transverse plane stability. Here is an interesting twist on the side bridge I like to use. Thanks to Jason Shane from Shane Physiotherapy for filming and posting this clip from the recent Vancouver Level 1 course in May. . . .

One way of Needling the Trapezius
Don't forget about or neglect to use dry needling, as it is a great modality and has been shown, in sone studies, to be as effective as deep dry needling (1-3)!

The anticipation is growing … spring is just around the corner!
For most of us, cabin fever is in full effect, and we are more than ready to "cure" this winter boredom by getting outside and interacting with nature. Ah, the joy of what's to come!
For now, though, we can make use of our expanding daylight hours and growing supply of energy by decluttering our surroundings. Sure, it sounds like just another chore, but there are actually health benefits to this activity. Experts say disarray can cause stress, while clean can facilitate calm and peace of mind in our lives. Check out some reputable health and wellness websites for more information on the therapeutic effects of decluttering!
March is the month we observe National Nutrition Month. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' campaign focuses attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits. There is so much to learn in this area; consider researching these topics before things get too busy outside! You'll find some helpful tips and resources on the academy's website (http://eatright.org).
We have so many great articles to share with you this month. Tony Bednarowski helps you in the development of your sound eating habits by offering a simple way to calculate your calorie needs. Jeremy Gilsoul reminds us to stop and take a moment to ask ourselves the important questions in life and to understand that now is the moment to take control. Stanlee Maliszewski has an important message for stressed parents: what your children really want and need is your loving presence. And, there's much more, so please read on!
Enjoy the anticipation of spring, and take some time to prepare for your healthy future!
In health and happiness,

The Town of Belleair (Pinellas Peninsula, Florida) produces an average 1.1 MGD drinking water from groundwater extracted from the Upper Floridan Aquifer System. The Town is concerned over the future water quality of its well field: seawater intrusion is occurring and has caused steep increases in salinity levels of the wells closest to the Gulf of Mexico since early 2000s. A feasibility study appointed Freshkeeper as most sustainable and cost-efficient solution to safeguard drinking water supply in Belleair, above alternatives like switching to brackish water desalination or closure of the well field. Freshkeeper holds a three step approach: (1) interception of the intruding saline water, preventing salinization of the freshwater wells, (2) desalination of the intercepted saline water, providing an additional freshwater production, (3) disposal of the membrane concentrate in lower, more saline aquifers.

text: Hi. My son already has a DS Lite with SC Lite and SuperKey. I am getting a DS of my own. I have had good experiences with his Supercard Lite, besides a few GBA games not playing. I would hate to miss out on GBA games, otherwise I would ditch Slot2 altogether. I want a Slot1 and Slot2 device and I am considering price, download play compatibility, Opera Browser compatibility, and GBA compatibility (SLOT2). I was tempted to get a DS One and a Supercard Lite because of price, but I already have this brand for my son's DS. I was considering CycloDS for Download play. And I know that the SC lite is a decent performer for GBA, and there may be better performers for GBA, but the SC lite has been an all around good slot2 card for me. What's your suggestions?

Sam concentrates his practice on complex intellectual property litigation, monetization and counseling matters at Carlson Caspers.
Sam's litigation experience includes handling over 25 patent cases. They range from technologies involving chemicals to computer software. Many of Sam's cases have involved pharmaceutical cases filed under the Hatch-Waxman Act ("ANDA litigation"). The patents involved in those cases have covered small molecules, polymorphs, various types of formulations, topical treatments, intravenous drugs, and methods of use. Sam has served as trial counsel and taken the lead on Markman and dispositive motions for cases involving drugs with annual sales in the hundreds of millions and billions. Outside of pharmaceuticals, Sam has litigated cases involving medical device technologies, computer-technologies, automotive vehicle design, business methods, and manufacturing processes. He also litigates matters involving trade secrets, unfair competition, trademarks, trade dress and copyrights. Sam's experience includes contested administrative proceedings, including numerous inter partes reviews (IPRs) before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board and several trademark disputes before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board.
Sam has substantial experience counseling and identifying monetizing opportunities for clients outside of litigation via business collaborations, licensing opportunities, development and assignments of patent portfolios, and trade secret acquisition and maintenance. Sam led negotiations on behalf of a Fortune 500 company to acquire intellectual property rights to platform technology that is projected to serve as the foundation for a multibillion-dollar research program in the life sciences space. In another recent matter, Sam led an initiative to create an out-licensing program for technology in the bioagricultural field that has estimated value of over $100 million. Sam has counseled numerous clients on other technology-centric agreements, including research collaborations, joint ventures, intellectual property licenses, non-disclosure agreements, and material transfer agreements.
Sam spoke at 2017 BIO Korea on gene therapy and strategies within that space for licensing and litigation. He also recently moderated a panel at the 2017 Midwest IP Institute entitled "Strategy Considerations for Patent Enforcement Worldwide: A Panel of International Experts." Sam has also given or hosted numerous talks on damages and pre-suit investigations.
Sam is active in the legal community and involved with various industry-related groups.
