Re: "Liberals took a stand against Nazi intimidation" by Dave Hager:
Ease your mind, Dave. You didn't hurt my feelings, so need to feel "so sorry." As to your letter, just a few observations, if you don't mind.
1. My letter concerned the sweeping generalizations of your previous one. I addressed them individually and stayed on topic. I can't say you have improved your tendency to make those sweeping generalizations.
2. Your assertion that conservatives are akin to neo-Nazis, skinheads and racists is a case in point.
3. Coincidence is not causality. Yes, those deplorable racists were in Charlottesville, but not everyone who showed up to protest taking down the statue was one of them. I could say that ice cream sales and violence increase during hot weather. Therefore, ice cream must cause aggression.
4. The Left is fighting back at last? They have been. Think Occupy Wall Street or Black Lives Matter. Do the left-wing extremists speak for all liberals?
5. Does our country have some dark stains on its history? Yes, but part of this country's exceptionalism is that we try to correct the mistakes of the past. Can you say that for a right-wing dictatorship like Turkey or a left-wing one like China, Russia, Cuba or Venezuela? Can you say the things you do in print in any of those countries?
Finally, Dave: Let's hope that people of good conscience can come together and address problems that bother them and ultimately affect all of us.

'Ramchand Pakistani' will have a calming effect, says producerOctober 1st, 2008 - 5:56 pm ICT by IANS
Mumbai, Oct 1 (IANS) Pakistani film "Ramchand Pakistani" had a red carpet premiere here and its producer Javed Jabbar, who served as minister of information in Pervez Musharraf's government, says the movie will have a "calming effect" in the present situation in India."Ramchand Pakistani", which is directorial debut of Jabbar's daughter Mehreen, is about the dilemma of people living in the border area of India and Pakistan, was premiered here Tuesday.
Was he a bit worried that in the midst of the recent terror strikes meant apparently to create a communal divide in India, the message of the Hindu-Muslim amity that his movie tries to send across would get drowned?
"This a tricky question to answer. But I should think, "Ramchand Pakistani" would have a calming effect in the present situation in India," Jabbar told IANS.
Can movies bring closer people estranged on religious lines?
"The movies may not help people shed their differences instantly, but if the objectives are clear and sincere, the movies can certainly help people see these differences in proper perspective. This is the least a filmmaker can do," he said.
Of late, some movies, including "Khuda Kay Liye", have been made both in India and Pakistan on the sensitive subject of communalism and fundamentalism and their effect on the common people. But they do not seem to have a "calming effect" on the perpetrators of hatred.
"It s difficult to change the mindset of those who thrive on communalism and fundamentalism," Jabbar pointed out.
Asked him, can a movie like "Ramchand Pakistani" bring India and Pakistan closer, he said: "I should think so. But, let me also say that, against one 'Ramchand Pakistani', there are also some which are intended to widen the divide. But that should not defeat our purpose."
Jabbar regretted that though India and Pakistan are neighbours, the common people of both the countries, in spite of having common heritage, are still strangers to one another.
"We are so near and yet so far," he rued and said that he would happy if his movie help people to get acquainted with the reality on the ground, both in India and Pakistan.
Pakistani producer was all praise for Percept Picture Company for coming forward to get "Ramchand Pakistani" released in India.
Ashok Ahuja, one of the directors on the board of Percept Picture Company, said that though the movie was a commercial success in Pakistan, over and above being critically acclaimed internationally, his company was not so much concerned about its box-office success in India.
The lead pair of "Ramchand Pakistani", Nandita Das and Rashid Farooqui, attended the premiere and received a standing ovation for their true-to-life performances.

Monet remarked "a landscape does not exist in its own right, since its appearance changes at every moment; but the surrounding atmosphere brings it to life."
This is why I love landscape photography. You can go to the same place many times and have a completely different experience with each visit. It is exiting and therefore every capture should be cherished.

Python Qt4 recipe: QSingleApplication (PySide)
Thanks to Renato Filho who helped me in this thread on the Qt Forums, I made a simple QSingleApplication class for PySide that allows you to be sure your program will be started only once.
In addition to start the application only once, we can send the arguments of the later calls of your program to the first (and only remaining) instance.
The following video summarizes the features:
20 years of Linux
Python VS Ruby through a concrete GUI example (Qt)
In a previous post, I was justifying my choice to start learning Ruby instead of Python, and in another previous post I was praising QtRuby.
Now it's time to challenge QtRuby (and Ruby in general) with PyQt/PySide (and Python in general).
Due to some reasons, I had to write the same program in both languages.
Thanks to that, I better understood myself the pros and cons of both languages and will try to share my thoughts with you.
A very brief summary would be: Ruby is the winner for programming pleasure and private applications while Python is the winner when it gets serious.
For more information, read the whole post!
Reasonable people
"Reasonable people
Never do as they see fit
They don't call anybody wretched
Never get on their nerve in their car
And if ever someone blame them
Even if they know they are right
To avoid the misdemeanour
They apologize or leave"

I would like to start by saying… I f***ing love squash.
I just tried this out last night, I had a totally different blog post for today, but it was that good. The tangy miso sauce and sweetness of the squash is a magically moment, give this a go!!
What do you need?
1 winter squash, I used acorn squash
patience (haha seriously I hate peeling squash, but it's worth it I promise)
1/4 cup of miso paste
1/3 cup of water
3 tablespoons of rice vinegar
3 tablespoons of white wine vinegar
greens (I used kale, chard, and spinach)
2 tablespoons of finely chopped chives
What to do
First cut the squash, take out the seeds (you should roast them, just saying..) Then cut the squash into small chunks and cut off the rind. Yes. This is my favourite part. Juuust kidding.
Steam the squash chunks for 10-12 minutes. I used my steamer baskets.
While the squash is steaming combine the miso, water, and vinegars into a saucepan and whisk together until it comes to a boil.
Put the squash into a 9×13 baking pan and cover with miso sauce.
Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes.
Just before the squash is done, steam your greens for 4 minutes, again I used my steamer baskets, but use whatever you have.
Place the miso glazed squash on top of your bed of steamed greens, and top with chives.

Your Social Media Trapper Keeper
As a student in grade school it was important to stay organized, and nothing made staying organized easier than the Trapper Keeper. It provided multiple folders for storage and pockets for anything else you might (or might not) need in class.
Of course, there was always the classmate that just could not stay organized. Their lockers were always in a state of disarray with papers jammed in at every angle, they could never remember to bring a pencil to class and always forgot their textbook.
When it comes to social media, you don't want to be "that" classmate. You (and your brand) have a digital reputation to protect, after all. That's why it's important to have a Trapper Keeper, per se, for your brand's social media.
Do you have Facebook, LinkedIn or even web pages that aren't fully built or that convey a laissez-faire attitude? That can turn off potential customers and current followers. Social media is a 24/7-customer service desk. It's your opportunity to engage with current and future customers. If you have all of your social media content organized and seamlessly integrated, you can maximize ROI for your business. Knowing which channels to put in your company's Trapper Keeper will go a long way in getting the right ROI for your brand.
It's important to assess your brand's goals and objectives in order to determine the ideal mix of social media platforms to achieve those goals. If you're interested in B2B leads, think about putting LinkedIn into your Trapper Keeper, and maybe leave Instagram in your locker. If you're in an industry that's interested in real-time leads, take a look at Facebook or Twitter.
Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of each platform as they relate to your business goals is crucial. Most businesses don't need to adopt every hot social media platform because some won't impact their brand in a positive way. In fact, spreading your social media followers across numerous networks could lead to user fatigue and begin to negatively impact your mission.
Here's a rule to remember: social media isn't about just showing up and getting credit for being there. You need to show up prepared, and your social media Trapper Keeper can help you to the top of the class. Social platforms can make your small or medium-sized business feel much larger, which is a good thing. It takes a concerted effort to craft a true brand strategy, and that's something the experts at GrowthWeaver provide for our clients.

We looked at the story of Peter and the Wolf. It was written by Sergei Prokofiev. Each character in the story is represented by an instrument. Peter is the string instruments; the bird is the flute; Grandpa is the bassoon; the duck is the oboe; the cat is the clarinet; the wolf is the French horn; the hunters shots are the kettle drums. We went onto the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra Kids website to listen to the sounds of the different instruments. Mr. Quinn read the story of Peter and the Wolf to us last week. Today we looked at a video of Peter and the Wolf on YouTube. We all thought it was very good. It was a cartoon with the music in the background. We are making some pictures of a part of the story.

It took Ellen Arnstein the better part of two years to win the trust of the people of Camargo, a farming town of 5,000 in southeastern Bolivia.
The mayor agreed to partially fund the Peace Corps volunteer's proposal to have children plant fruit trees at their school. Arnstein, 27, was about to be interviewed by a local TV crew when she got the call: The Peace Corps was pulling all 113 of its volunteers out of Bolivia.
"I just started crying. I was like, 'I don't want to go!'" recalled Arnstein, a native of Monroe, N.Y., as she sat in a cafe in Lima, Peru. She is among more than 70 volunteers who left the corps, having nearly completed their two-year stints, rather than start over in a different country.
The hasty pullout came directly on the heels of Bolivian President Evo Morales' Sept. 10 expulsion of the U.S. ambassador for allegedly inciting opposition protests. Arnstein was among disappointed volunteers who believe their government overreacted. True, some parts of Bolivia were dangerously unstable, but most volunteers felt no security threat, several told The Associated Press.
"Peace Corps, unfortunately, has become another weapon in the U.S. diplomatic arsenal," said Sarah Nourse, 27, another volunteer who opted out.
Nourse had been developing trash management projects in a small town in the eastern state of Santa Cruz, the center of opposition to the leftist Morales. She questioned the wisdom of depriving Bolivians of a rare firsthand opportunity to weigh Morales' anti-U.S. rhetoric against real Americans.
The top U.S. diplomat for Latin America, Thomas Shannon, said security was the only reason behind the "saddening" pullout.
"Remember, the Bolivians on at least two occasions that I'm aware of said that they thought the Peace Corps was part of a larger intelligence network," Shannon said.

Safe Boating in the Marlborough Sounds
We want you to enjoy your time out on the water and return safely. So before heading out, we highly recommend you take a look at this excellent Marlborough Sounds Safe Boating guide, produced by the Marlborough District Council. View or download it here.
This brochure provides information to help you have an enjoyable and safe time on the water. Copies of the brochure are also available from the Marlborough District Council Customer Service Centres in Blenheim or Picton, as well as from the Waikawa, Picton and Havelock marinas.
Here are some other handy hints to make sure you stay safe on the water for this up and coming season.
Prepare your boat.
- Schedule an engine service, as it is important to ensure all fittings and clamps are properly secured and all fluids are fresh.
- Inspect your fuel system for leaks and drain any water from water traps and filters.
- Test your battery, checking correct fluid levels. Inspect all connections to ensure they are tight and free from corrosion.
Check your inventory.
- Check life jackets (size, condition and suitability). All recreational boaties must carry life jackets in Marlborough waters.Anyone in charge of a recreational vessel should expect to be prosecuted and fined $200 if they're found without the life jackets required for those on board.
- Look at the equipment on your boat and make sure it's working and you have everything you need.
- Check expiry dates on flares and fire extinguishers, batteries on all equipment and your distress beacon's registration date.
Prepare for an emergency.
- Make sure you can access safety gear easily in an emergency. A floating 'grab bag' with the emergency gear you need should your boat capsize is a great idea.
- Make sure someone in your crew can skipper too, just in case you can't.
Refresh on the rules.
Know the maritime rules. Every boat must have a skipper who is legally responsible for the safety of the boat and all the people on board, and is also responsible for complying with all the relevant rules and regulations.
Don't forget to check the weather before going out on the water, you can do this on our website here. Or, you can follow our Facebook page for a weather update every Friday.

FAYETTEVILLE (NWAOnline.com) - Arkansas will be without at least three starters against Texas A&M on Saturday, Razorbacks coach John L. Smith said Thursday.
Tight end Chris Gragg, cornerback Tevin Mitchel and safety Eric Bennett will all miss the game with injuries. Gragg was suffered a bone bruise to his leg in the first quarter of Arkansas' game against Rutgers last week, Mitchel suffered an apparent concussion and later underwent surgery to remove his gall bladder following a game against Louisiana-Monroe two weeks ago, and Bennett has dealt with hamstring injuries since the preseason.

There is no level 0 in the Capability Maturity Model (CMM), but there ought to be. Actually, there is no CMM either, at least in theory. It was replaced by the CMMI - Capability Maturity Model Integration - several years ago. However, the CMM has been so successful that it survived its own official demise.
The CMM describes a scale of effectiveness for software development processes. The scale begins with level 1, which is termed initial, and goes up to level 5, which is optimizing. Organizations at level 1 do not really have any software development processes. Things are done in an ad hoc fashion but can get done, albeit often exceeding budgets and delivery dates. To be successful at level 1 usually requires the participation of what are termed heroes - very intelligent people who work hard for long hours. Such an approach is not scalable and is often not sustainable in the long run. However, the peculiar things that happen at level 1 are perhaps the most interesting aspect of the CMM. Those who have experienced this level might be tempted to ask if there is anything worse. There may be.
Life at Level 1
My first experience of level 1 occurred when I was working on a large development project and noticed that a group of external consultants tended to work most weekends. In reality, they were fixing problems that they themselves were continually making, which were being found by the testing team. Did this earn them the opprobrium of project management? Certainly not. The more weekends they worked, the greater management held them in awe, and the more they were lavished with praise for keeping the project on track. Meanwhile, individuals who got their work done during regular hours and created no problems went largely unnoticed by management.
Down to Level 0
No matter how development ends up at level 1, the spirit of the CMM is that the heroes are definitely oriented to getting a successful product out the door. However, working in the data field has given me the chance to encounter a different type of hero who is not oriented to developing a product but exists to keep siloed applications running. This hero exists in a situation worse than what is envisaged at level 1. Admittedly, it may not fall within the domain of the CMM because it represents maintenance rather than development, but for the purposes of argument let us call it level 0.
The chief characteristic of level 0 is that the heroes are not distinct from an application - they are actually part of it. The hero must continuously intervene to keep the application running. It must be remembered that we are talking about maintenance, not development, of these applications. It is understandable how these kinds of situations arise - the heroes seek job security by becoming indispensable. They often have strong personal or political ties to the silo boss. Such ties are typically formed when the hero worked in the development of the application and stayed on afterward to support it. The level 0 hero, however, is a significant obstacle to enterprise-wide sharing of data.
Gaining understanding of the data in a silo for consumption in a warehouse is not often done well. Warehouse teams are more often oriented to technologies and methodologies than data to begin with. Even with a commitment to source data analysis, there is usually no way to avoid dealing with level 0 heroes. Documentation is always incomplete and unreliable, silos are almost never part of a metadata strategy that describes their data, business users are rarely available for interviews, reverse-engineering is challenging and analyst-driven data profiling is patchy and probabilistic.
Deliver us from Heroes
A level 0 hero has little to gain by sharing his or her knowledge of the data in the silo. They have made a Faustian bargain in which they have traded a lot of professional development and quality time for job security. That security would be challenged if knowledge of how the silo works were freely available.
My observation is that the heroes know how to get information about the data in a silo, rather than having this information available and at hand. Even if a hero is prepared to cooperate with a project that requires understanding of a silos data assets, it may take quite an effort to assemble the necessary information. At least, this is in the spirit of level 1, but at level 0, the heroes are more typically concerned with staying indispensable and thus are not inclined to share knowledge.
If warehouse projects were truly oriented to physical data management as much as they are to the tools and architecture involved in building warehouses, this problem would have been better highlighted years ago. Hero might even be a recognized data governance category along with data owner and data steward. This has not happened. However, the ever-increasing demand to share data across enterprises is building up pressures that will eventually be irresistible. One potential consequence of this may well be to disintermediate the level 0 heroes in terms of knowledge of siloed data. In fact, a class of tools that can do this has appeared. These tools automatically map the data landscape, both from a metadata and physical data perspective. They build knowledge of the data landscape without human analysis and thus bypass the need to involve heroes who carefully guard this knowledge. Perhaps the days of the hero are numbered after all.

LOVELY GRUB .........................................by Linda Mitchelmore

I find cafe and restaurants are also great sources for research to improve character development. People react to conversations in different ways and you don't even have to hear what is said to recognise their interest or disinterest in the topic, such as excess fidgeting, toying with their cutlery, staring off into space, nodding in inappropriate places, taking an unusual interest in their split-ends while their friend shares her wows about her boring job. This is all great fodder to be stored away and used in your writing. I find "people watching" fascinating.ReplyDelete
Oh yes, people watching - should be tax-deductable! Thanks for popping by to comment.ReplyDelete
Cheers, Linda. That cake batter martini is going down a treat! Whilst the words 'pecan danish' had my mouth watering. I also enjoy reading pieces which involve cooking or eating, and all the scrummy delights on offer in a café of coffee shop make it particularly appealing. Also, huge congratulations on the publication of your latest short story in Woman's Weekly magazine. Merry Christmas!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks, Rae ..... I think people do relate well to food and drink in a story. The cake batter martini looks wonderful but probably tastes a bit yuk!Delete
Food and drink is so integral to the way we socialise, so I completley agree it's very useful in writing. In fact you've given me a few ideas!ReplyDeleteReplies
Ah, that's what blogposts are for ..... generating ideas in others. Go, Gill, go!Delete

Today we are pleased to announce the first wave of the 2017 line up including SG Lewis, Danny Howard, Tom Findlay (Groove Armada) & Jessica Skye.
SG Lewis
Tom Findlay
Danny Howard
Jessica Skye
First announced is Danny Howard, British dance music DJ, producer and radio presenter, best known for presenting BBC Radio 1's Dance Anthems with Danny Howard. We're delighted to say that Danny will take to the LoveFit stage on Saturday night. Danny also studied Sport and Exercise Science at University, making him a perfect fit for the first year of the festival.
Next up is Groove Armada's Tom Findlay. Tom's importance to dance music as one half of electronic duo Groove Armada needs little explanation, having already smashed it with DJ sets at the likes of WHP, Snowbombing, Space Ibiza and, closer to home, a sell-out SWG3 party in Glasgow this year. This is going to be exceptional.
Also announced is SG Lewis. This 20 year old music producer from Reading blends influences of club music with the emotive touch of classic songwriting to create his own unique, disctinctive sound. Now label mates, SG Lewis made himself known to PMR when he remixed Jessie Ware's recent single 'You & I (Forever)'. Performing gigs such as Coachella 2017, SG Lewis is definitely one to watch.
Finally, we are really excited to announce the addition of Jessica Skye. Signed to Ministry of Sound, this London based DJ and fitness sensation hasn't gone unnoticed picking up gigs across Europe as well as residencies & shows for brands such as Nike and Vogue, at venues from Shoreditch House and The Royal Albert Hall to Creamfields and supporting the likes of Nightmares on Wax, Joey Negro, Terry Farley, Tensnake & many more along the way.

The key is understanding your child's behaviour!
So many parent's say "I don't know how to stop my child's behaviours." They go on to explain their child's behaviours in great detail. However, the actual behaviour is not important. The key is understanding your child's behaviours. A lot of parent's get stumped when I say this because they are simply focused about the behaviours.
To help parent's to understand their child's behaviours, I ask them to talk about an example for a particular challenging behaviour. The parent then goes into detail of the behaviour the child displayed. I then ask what happened before the behaviour occurred. The common answer is "I do not know" or "it happened for no reason". I probe with more questions to narrow it down for instance was it a request that you gave them? Did you tell the child to do something? Were they playing a game? Was it a sensory issue? As the percentage of families have children on the Autism Spectrum Disorder and Sensory Processing Disorder, it is extremely important to look at the sensory areas because some behaviours can be caused due to a sensory issue. However even with families that do not have a child with Autism or Sensory Processing Disorder, it is still important to look at the sensory areas because the child may have mild issues that they are unaware of.
The key is understanding your child's behaviours from a cognitive sense. If we look at a scenario of a child expressing challenging behaviour when receiving an instruction it is important to look at the whole picture from a cognitive angle. The majority of behaviours are due to lacking of skills. The major areas, which then are broken down into smaller steps, are flexibility, adaptability, frustration tolerance and problem solving. If your child is having difficulties in these areas, it is important that behaviour strategies support your child to move through these challenges without the unwanted behaviours.
Conventional methods of behaviour management does not work for all children and just with that thought it can be extremely challenging. I thoroughly enjoy working with families to assist with parent's to help their children to reduce these behaviours as it will improve their families overall well being.
Your child can be successful but at this moment they do not have the skills to be successful. The key is understanding your child's behaviour. If you want to know more check out my Challenging Behaviour Busting program.

"As a historic meeting place of East and West and a fertile crossroads for different religious and cultural traditions over the centuries, Iranian heritage has long influenced other cultures, and is a source of tremendous pride for its people. Indeed, as I have seen at first hand on my official visits, it is in the field of cultural heritage preservation that our collaboration has been particularly fruitful," said Mr Matsuura.
The Director-General recalled that in 2005 "I spent time in Bam, inscribed on the World Heritage List on an emergency basis following the terrible earthquake of 26 December 2003, and where UNESCO, in close collaboration with the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, is carrying out extensive rehabilitation and conservation activities."
"Through its cooperation with UNESCO in this domain, the Islamic Republic of Iran affirms its commitment to safeguarding cultural diversity as a tool for achieving sustainable development and increasing social cohesion. Accordingly, the celebration of sixty years of partnership with UNESCO provides an excellent opportunity to recall past achievements and open new avenues for future action," he concluded.

Stunning locations you can discover on The Ghan railway
A trip aboard The Ghan, Australia's great train following an epic stretch of railway that connects the north and south, is a truly unforgettable experience and allows you to get a flavour of the real Australia, taking you through scenes of towns, mountains, rivers, farmland and pure Australian outback.
Distant Journeys offers The Ghan tours covering a journey of over a thousand miles from Adelaide to Alice Springs, with premium Gold service onboard allowing you to travel in full comfort. Here's just some of the breathtaking locations you'll discover during your travels onboard The Ghan:
Flinders Ranges
The largest mountain range of South Australia, the Flinders Ranges are unmistakable upon approach around 200 miles north of Adelaide. The landscape of the Flinders Ranges is hugely diverse, with an array of colours passing you by as you travel, transforming from greys blues at dawn through vibrant greens and yellows as the sun shines brightly to dramatic reds by dusk.
Port Pirie
The first stop made by The Ghan, Port Pirie is one of the largest towns in South Australia. Specialising in the refinery industry, the views offered up by Port Pirie of vast smelters dominating the skyline and ships coming and going from the seaport is a huge contrast to the countryside landscapes that passed before it.
Port Augusta
Another populous seaport town, Port Augusta is situated on the East Coast of the Spencer Gulf, an inlet of water teaming with marine life. It is the last large place of civilisation that we will meet until the end of the journey at Alice Springs, providing a gateway to Southern Australia's isolated wilderness.
The Outback
One of Australia's most famous stretches of landscapes, the Outback covers an area of thousands of miles and is Australia at its most remote and untouched. The views are incredibly striking, with rock formations and sprawling desert just some of the things you can expect to witness. The Ghan takes you through a gigantic stretch of outback before emerging at the Red Centre, home to Alice Springs and known across the world for its almost luminous orange-red soil.

Visit the Dates and Deadlines page for more information on when to apply for admission.
When you apply for admission, final, official transcripts are required for all high school and post-secondary coursework completed. Educational institutions (both high school [secondary] and post-secondary) are required to retain official transcripts for all students regardless of the length of time since your attendance at that school. For a transcript to be considered official, high school and post-secondary transcripts must be sent directly from the issuing institution to Mount Royal University.
If the original transcripts are not in English, you must submit both a certified English translation from a valid translation service and the translation service must attach a copy of the original transcripts and verify they are a true translation of the original.
Note: All documents (including transcripts) submitted for admission purposes become the property of Mount Royal and will not be released to, nor photocopied for, the applicant or anyone outside of Mount Royal. Documents submitted by applicants who are not accepted or who do not attend are destroyed one year after the start of the semester for which admission was requested.
Educational institutions (both high school [secondary] and post-secondary) are required to retain official transcripts for all students regardless of the length of time since your attendance at that school. Therefore, it is only in very rare circumstances that applicants are unable to obtain their official records.
If you are unable to arrange for official transcripts to be sent directly to Mount Royal University from the issuing institution, you may complete an Applicant Declaration form and provide the required documentation to demonstrate you have attempted to obtain your transcripts but were unable to get them. In cases where you were unable to arrange for official transcripts to be sent to Mount Royal, you may bring (or have someone else bring) that transcript to the Admissions and Recruitment Office (Room B156) on the Mount Royal University campus. We will take copies of the documents and return them to you directly. If only one official copy is available, do not send your official documents as they will not be returned to you.
Applicants who are unable to provide any official transcripts will be considered only for programs that have no specific academic requirements. An applicant seeking admission to a program with specific academic requirements must first present successful completion of these courses as well as meet the competitive and minimum admission requirements for their intended program of study.
Applicants who are unable to acquire one or more final, official transcript(s) to be sent directly to Mount Royal University from the issuing institution must provide:
- academic documents you have in your possession (copies of original or unofficial)
- proof that you have tried to acquire your official transcript(s) including correspondence sent to the institution such as email requests, registered mail, institutional contact names and numbers
- written explanation of your circumstances indicating why you cannot obtain official transcripts
- list of all of your educational and work activities in chronological order since high school
The primary language of instruction and communication at Mount Royal University is English and it is essential that all students have an adequate knowledge in the areas of reading, writing, listening and speaking in the English language in order for them to be successful in their studies. All applicants must demonstrate English Language Proficiency for the purpose of admission if their primary or first language (meaning the main language learned and used as a child) is not English.
Documentation to verify English Language Proficiency is required for students whose first language is not English.
Visit English Language Proficiency Requirement for further information and a list of ways you can meet this requirement.
If you require further study in English to meet the English Language Proficiency requirement please visit the Languages Institute. Mount Royal's Languages Institute offers a complete range of English language courses that can help you improve your language skills for academic study, work, travel or personal development.

|Calgary Transit U-Pass included in tuition and fees
|Living Expenses and Spending Money
|$34,750 Canadian Dollars
** estimated costs based on five courses per semester (based on 2017/2018 fees)
As a student who is considering studying in Canada, you are expected to have enough money to support yourself during your studies. You must ensure you have enough money to pay for:
- tuition
- living expenses
- transportation to and from Canada
If you are planning to attend Mount Royal on a Study Permit, you should be aware that you are not eligible to apply for Canadian government funding. If you require a loan to attend school, you should consider getting a loan through your home country.
Some countries will offer government student loans to students who attend Mount Royal. If your home country does not fund students through their government loans program, you may wish to speak to your bank or other financial institutions to secure funding.
American students: Mount Royal is not a Title IV school. Therefore, you cannot qualify for U.S. government funding if you attend Mount Royal.

In 1991, during the Gulf War, Aaron Tippin released his debut single, the patriotic "You've Got to Stand for Something." The tune became an anthem of sorts for soldiers fighting overseas, propelling itself into the Top 10 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart and jump-starting Tippin's country music career.
In the two and a half decades since his first single, Tippin has released 11 studio albums and notched nine Top 10 singles, including "Where the Stars and the Stripes and the Eagle Fly," another patriotic tune that was released in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and the No. 1 "Kiss This." Tippin's discography also includes one platinum-certified and five gold-certified albums, two more No. 1 singles and four songs with crossover success on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
On March 2, Tippin celebrated 25 years in country music with his 11th studio album, Aaron Tippin 25. The two-disc release features, appropriately, 25 tracks, including past hits, new songs and even a few covers; his family even sings with him on a gospel tune, "The House of the Lord." It is available for purchase exclusively through Tippin's website.
The Boot spoke with Tippin about his career highlights, his new album and some of the unique ways he's marking his musical silver anniversary.
Looking back on your career, do you recall a specific moment when you knew you'd "made it"?
The truth is, [it was] from the day I got here … Looking back on 25 years, [I] can't believe I've come that far. By the time I was out here a second year, I was wondering if there was going to be a third year. But, you know, I think it came long before being a singer on a label; it was the songwriting days when I realized. I'd come to Nashville to write songs. It didn't matter anymore if I had a hit song or not; it's what I wanted to do. And as long as I could find a place to take a bath, even if I had to sleep under a bridge, I was gonna go down and write songs on [Music] Row every morning. Things worked out. Everything worked out unbelievably great. I'm the luckiest hillbilly that ever lived.
Do you have a favorite memory or two, big highlights from throughout your career? I've got a bucket full of them. I look back on the very first thing that happened: I was on the Bob Hope Show. How do you top that? [Also,] Christmas of 1990, the first thing I ever did in country music, playing with Bob Hope in Saudi Arabia to entertain our troops in the Persian Gulf. And from there, golly, just all kinds of things. You know, my music's been in space. When I was performing with Bob Hope in Saudi Arabia, a Marine captain flying an F/A-18 Hornet, he was a huge Aaron Tippin fan, and after he got out of the military, he went and worked for NASA, and when he [went on mission STS-105 on the Space Shuttle Discovery], he was allowed two pieces of music in space, and he took one of my CDs. So, that's a pretty big deal. I played at the [National] Mall on the Fourth of July and got to sing "Where the Stars and the Stripes and the Eagle Fly" with the Washington Monument standing behind me … I've had a lot of gifts.
Speaking of "Where the Stars and the Stripes and the Eagle Fly," let's talk about both your patriotism specifically, and why you think patriotism in general is so important in country music.
I don't consider myself a patriot. I like to serve our troops, and even if nobody considered me a patriot, I'd still want to serve our troops, show my appreciation. And I think it runs pretty strong in the country world — you know, Darryl Worley's a good example, [Neal] McCoy's a good example. They're not afraid to hunker down behind a bunker and play some songs for our guys and gals, and my hat's off to every single one of them.
What made you choose a patriotic song like "You've Got to Stand for Something" as your debut single?
Actually, [former Sony Music Nashville Chairman] Joe Galante chose it. As a matter of fact, we'd been running songs down, figuring out if we were going to put them on my album, and I came in one morning … and I went in to Joe's office to say, "I've got a new song I'm gonna play for you," and when he heard it, he said, "That's gonna be the first single." So, Joe's the one that actually picked it.
Were you looking at any other songs as potential singles at that point?
Well, you know, he'd been doing this a lot of years. I thought, "If he heard what he thought was a first hit, I probably better be smart enough to go along with it." [Laughs] He's heard a lot of hits.
Switching gears to your new album, Aaron Tippin 25, there are a few new songs among its tracks. Where did they come from?
It's a combination of songs that have been around a while — I reviewed everything that I had cataloged that I'd never cut over the years — and then, I write all the time, so there's all kinds of new songs, and you never know what's gonna pop up, and there were some right at the last minute. "You Make Me Beautiful," me and David Lee Murphy wrote that song just before we went in to record. So there's a few of 'em like that, and then there's a few that, they've been there a while and I just thought, it's a great song, and it fits this project. It's all about 25 years in the business: a little bit of old, a little bit of new.
Is there one or two of the new songs that you're particularly excited to have on there?
Oh, geeze, that's — no. I wrote all of 'em, so it'd be pretty tough to pick one baby over the other. And, I kind of let the fans decide what song they really, really are excited about.
There are also a few covers on the record as well. How did you select those?
Well, "The Way You Look Tonight," Frank Sinatra, that's the song that [my wife] Thea and I danced to at our wedding reception. We're big fans of Big Band music, and so I did it to kind of prove that I can do something other than country. There were boys in the studio when we were cutting it calling it "Hank Sinatra." And your son and your family are on a couple of the covers as well. Well, you know, [Tom,] the youngest one, man, he's following right in mother's footsteps and loving this music like crazy. Thea's an avid singer, too, and a Belmont [University] vocal major, and she's also a Gonzaga [University] music graduate, so she's really a great singer. Our youngest, it looks like he wants to be in the business, so it was only fitting that we pick out a song and do one together — my 25th year, and his introduction to music commercially — and we decided that we'd do an old tune from Al Green, "Let's Stay Together," and boy, he really rattles it. Sounds good.
Is a career in music something you really encourage for your kids, or are you more reserved about it?
I'm more reserved about it. His mother, you know, she's really gung-ho about it and loves it. Thea's the wheels behind the Aaron Tippin career, you know?
She's the one that makes sure all the nuts and bolts are tightened up, and the T's are crossed and the I's are dotted — that's what she does, and keeps this machine on track. And so, I think, through her passion for it and my being in the business, it's a course that's easily made because he's a good singer, and I think he can do well in the business.
Are there any other big plans you have to celebrate 25 years in the music business?
Not only only do we have the album for 25 years, which is a double disc, but we also have a commemorative bottle of wine — yeah, sure do. We teamed up with [Stonehaus Winery,] one of the biggest wineries in Tennessee, and we've done an Aaron Tippin blackberry jam, and it is awesome. We had a release party back last month, and it was really great; we had a great time. And what a load of fun. You know, people can check that out on StonehausWinery.com and get a bottle of wine. That's so cool!
How did that partnership come about? And how involved were you in creating the wine?
Well, there's something else that most folks may not know: I'm an amateur wine maker, and I enjoy that. But here lately, with all the other goings-on, cutting the album and all that stuff, I hadn't made wine in a while, and these are actually folks who go to church with us. We've known each other, and Thea and I decided I didn't have time to make the wine myself, so I said, "Hey, why don't we partner with the folks at Stonehaus and see if they can come up with a wine for us for our 25th," and lo and behold, they took me down there and let me choose my own vat, my own barrel, that the wine came out of, so it's really cool. I'm kind of the testing mark for that one, so I'm real proud of that one, and it's great wine.
So when you pick a bottle of wine to relax with and enjoy, what's your favorite?
I'm aiming to try anything, man. I'm all about trying new stuff, and being a wine maker, you always want to. And here in the South, we don't really have great grapes for making wine, so we end up making wine out of fruits — blackberry being a great example of that; I used to make a pretty mean peach and muscadine, so I do enjoy doing it, and it's fun to try different kinds.
Is making wine something you could see yourself doing after your music career is over?
Absolutely. I think it'd really be a fun adventure. I guess the old saying is, wine's made in a vineyard, not the winery, but, man, there are details that make wine different, and they come from the wine maker, and that's just the fun part of it.
So, other than the wine, do you have anything else in the works to help celebrate?
We will later on. We're going to have a commemorative handgun coming out. It's a Colt 1911 which will be commemorating 25 years of Aaron Tippin. Shoot, you know, we're just starting talking about maybe there might be a book and a documentary coming, too, so there's plenty going on this year.

Apple can't decrypt your phone
No comments · Posted by lance in apple, cellular, Cryptography, Personal Privacy
Since it was introduced, Apple has had the ability to decrypt the contents if iPhones and other iOS devices when asked to do so (with a warrant).
Apple recently announced that with iOS 8 Apple will no longer be able to do so. Predictably, there has been a roar of outrage from many in law enforcement. [[Insert my usual rant about how recent trends in technology have been massively in favor of law enforcement here]].
This is really about much more than keeping out law enforcement, and I applaud Apple for (finally) taking this step. They have realized what was for Anonymizer a foundational truth. If data is stored and available, it will get out. If Apple has the ability to decrypt phones, then the keys are available within Apple. They could be taken, compromised, compelled, or simply brute forced by opponents unknown. This is why Anonymizer has never kept data on user activity.
Only by ensuring that they can not do so can Apple provide actual security to it customers against the full range of threats, potentially least of which is US law enforcement.

Social Engineering – The oldest and best trick in the book.
No comments · Posted by lance in Computer Security, Social Engineering
The Washington Post has a good article on social engineering attacks. It is a good treatment of the topic.
Short answer, humans are the weak link, and can be defeated with extremely high probability.
The take away from this whole thing is that we need to be building security systems that don't rely on humans not being tricked into compromising their own security. A lot of security architects take a "blame the victim" stance. User's have other things to worry about than security. We need to make sure security happens even if they are not paying attention to it.

What is Helicopter Sunday?
He crushed Celtic's hopes 10 years ago on Helicopter Sunday – will Scott McDonald be doing the same thing to Rangers in 2015?
That's certainly what his old pal Jan Vennegoor thinks, and there's no denying he left a legacy on that Sunday which has become a shining moment in the Ibrox folklore.
But what is Helicopter Sunday, and why the name? If you don't follow Scottish football, you're maybe unaware of the dramatic events that unfolded that day in 2005…
The Legend of Helicopter Sunday
It was the 22nd May. Rangers were pitted against Hibernian at Easter Road in Edinburgh, they were second in the Scottish Premier League, two points behind their bitter rivals Celtic.
Meanwhile at Fir Park some 36 miles away, Celtic simply had to defeat their opponents Motherwell, or just match Rangers' result, to win the league.
It seemed certain for the Hoops' fans that their team would be the ones holding the Premiership trophy at the end of the day – and that trophy would be flown to the Fir Park ground via helicopter (but more on that later…).
As you can see a helicopter flight between Edinburgh and Motherwell is quite quick.
Rangers appeared to have lost their mojo in the first half of the game. Striker Nacho Novo's first attempt at a goal hit the post in the first 11 minutes, and to make matters worse, news filtered through from Fir Park that Celtic's Chris Sutton had given his team the one-nil lead against Motherwell.
Cue an impassioned speech from Rangers manager Alex McLeish at half-time in the dressing room. He told his team that they 'would wake up in the middle of the night with cold sweats' if they failed to secure a win against Hibs.
To get his players hoping again, McLeish pointed out that if they scored and Motherwell equalised, Rangers would walk away as the champions.
It seemed to work, because in the second half Novo redeemed himself by giving Rangers their first (and only) goal for the day.
Celtic Win Inevitable?
The match then slowed to a crawl as Hibs simply kept defending their side of the pitch – happy with the 1-0 score as losing by a narrow margin would see them through to the Uefa Cup.
Rangers were equally unwilling to rock the boat – so now all they could do was hope Motherwell would pull through in their favour.
But that equalisation didn't look like it would be coming. The score was still 1-0 to Celtic as the match crept closer to the final whistle.
With just two minutes left, and the helicopter already on its way to Fir Park, Scott McDonald suddenly broke through and surprised everyone with two cracking goals just sixty seconds apart.
"The helicopter is changing direction!" screamed commentator Peter Martin as the trophy made a sharp and unexpected turn back towards Edinburgh. You can hear the radio commentary below…
Rangers Emerge the Victors
The Celtic players and supporters were inconsolable. The Rangers fans went nuts.
The stands erupted in celebration as they learned of McDonald's first goal, then again when the second goal arrived, and finally as the whistle blew at Easter Road the scene devolved into chaos. Fans swarmed onto the pitch to celebrate the victory with their team.
Who knows? Perhaps we'll see the events of Helicopter Sunday repeated this year, with the tables turned against Rangers?
Scott MacDonald is playing for Motherwell against Rangers in a two-legged play-off, with the winner reaching the all-important Scottish Premiership.
Their fans might be flying to the match, but they won't be needing a helicopter this time to transport their precious cargo.
However plenty of Atlas Helicopter clients have flown to their destination in luxury with a few delicate items along for the ride – it's a safe, convenient and fast way to transport your valuable cargo across the UK and even to the edges of Europe.
And if you need to change your destination at the last minute, no problem – our flexible flight times allow us to accommodate you no matter where you need to go.

Your cell phone isn't just for socializing. It can be one of your most useful productivity tools if you use it right.
The Tour:
Our smartphones seem to run our lives nowadays, and since we're always using them, we're always looking for ways to make them better and use them more efficiently. If you're looking for new apps to simplify your life, tips for organizing your home screen, or ideas for battery life optimization, you've come to the right place. Here's what I have on my iPhone 6S:
My lock screen is simply a photo of my boyfriend, Ryan, and myself. I choose not to use live wallpapers, because they take up too much battery life, and they just aren't worth it for me! This simple photo isn't flashy or inappropriate for an office or school setting, it makes me happy to see, and it helps me identify my cell in a world full of iPhones!
Once I unlock my phone, I arrive at my main screen.
My bottom four are the phone call application, camera, messages, and my music app of choice: Spotify.
I have two pages of applications, so I'll take you through them one by one:
Outside of folders, I house my app store, Safari, calendar, photos, notes, Gmail, YouTube, my bank, Pinterest, and Polyvore.
The rest of the apps on this page are divided into folders: news, social, school, utilities, "booky," and blog. Take a look at what I have in each folder below:
As an aspiring journalist, I follow several different news sources, seen in my "News" folder above. These are just a few of my favorites – if you have more suggestions, comment below!
I also have a folder called "Blog," which is for all things freelancing. I keep a bookmark to my personal blog, and several apps that I use in my blogging endeavors, like Slack to communicate with one of my content creation teams, and Upwork to look for new jobs.
The Do! app is my to-do list application of choice. I use it to mark assignments for my freelance jobs, and I love that it shows up in my Today pull-down menu.
My second page includes apps that I use less regularly. Check them out:
In my "Photography" folder, I have the apps I use to edit my photos for Instagram and Twitter (I highly recommend Filterra and Airbrush for photo editing, and Typorama for adding text, at least until they make a Canva app).
Next is games, and though I'm not huge on them (because there always seems to be something else I need to be working on), I do have a few for when I have a moment of free time!
My "local" folder includes applications that apply to local life and travel; I use them sparingly, but they are much-appreciated when the time is right.
Finally, most people seem to have an "Extras" folder, with the apps that Apple doesn't allow you to delete, and other programs you never really use – and I am no exception!
The Break-Down:
I have my phone organized in a way that makes it ideal for school and work/blogging organization, with ample folders and productivity apps to keep me in line. So how can you make your phone the most efficient device it can be?
Your phone is useless if the battery is dead. Here's how to make it last all day:
- Say goodbye to the live wallpapers. They drain battery life quickly – it isn't worth it!
- Turn down that brightness when you can. Your phone's display uses more power than any other process.
- Play games sparingly – these are immediate battery drainers.
- Turn off WiFi, mobile data, and location when you aren't using them. Your phone sucks up battery searching for these services. If you really need to make it last, try putting your phone on airplane mode whenever possible!
- If you aren't on mobile data/WiFi, streaming music doesn't use very much battery. Try saving the songs to your phone via iTunes or Spotify instead.
If you keep running out of storage, but can't seem to part with any more apps, it's time to prioritize:
- If you use an app less than once per week, it doesn't deserve a spot on your phone! You won't miss it when you can snap more photos.
- Live photos on the iPhone 6S are neat, but they take up double the space of a regular photo, and often, they aren't necessary. You can't even share them! Switch your live photos off so you can save more memories with loved ones.
Finally, make sure you're reaping all the benefits that your phone can offer. Productivity is key for the busy college student! Here are some tips for using your phone to keep organized:
- Find a useable to-do list app. If Apple's pre-downloaded Reminders works for you, use it! Alternatively, find application like Do! that allows you to keep an outlook on your weeks ahead. You may have to experiment to figure out what works best for you.
- Download the applications for online services you use, like Blackboard, Canvas, or Slack. It will be a billion times easier than finding a computer every time you need to check your grades or communicate with your colleagues.
- Finally, update your calendar, notes, and to-do lists regularly so that you know you can depend on them when life gets hectic.
Your cell phone isn't just for socializing and playing games with friends. It can be one of your most useful productivity tools if you use it right. Take a tour through your own phone and see what you can do to make it more efficient – then leave a comment below and let me know what you did!
What tips do you have for busy college students looking to optimize their smart phones? Let me know in the comments!
