More smart watch musings because that topic is everywhere today and I'm interested in them: the deal clincher is going to be the stuff it does besides tell the time and date, obviously. I wear a $35 Timex that I've had so long it's on its third band; Anne got it for me ages ago. Regular watch stuff I already got.
I'm not terribly hung up on looks, though I expect Apple's designers agonized over their offering. Given the limited screen real estate I'm thinking Moto's round face approach was a mistake: those corners are useful. I'm also not a big fan of the chain mail band look. Give me fabric or leather.
I can't stress this enough: battery life. Rumor has it the Moto can't even get through a regular workday without dying. The use case: you take it off the charger in the morning and put it on. You use it fairly regularly through the day. You don't take it off again until it hits the charger when you get ready for bed. If it can't survive that long then it's really not very useful.

Hell yeah! If you are still not aware of this, NASA will be bombing the moon in order to to eject debris from the surface of one of moon's craters and discovering whether there's frozen water there. It will impact against the Cabeus crater at 5,600mph, causing another crater about one third the size of a football field.
The Cabeus crater was selected because it's likely to show definitive proof of water in the moon, based on the information from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, Lunar Prospector, Chandrayaan-1, and JAXA's Kaguya spacecraft.
So, its time to grab some popcorn and a can of coke, sit back and watch the events unfold live online on your computers! Later today, October 9, 6:15 a.m. EDT/3:15 a.m. PDT, NASA will start a live TV broadcast that will include live footage from the spacecraft camera, real-time telemetry based animation, expert commentary, and possibly some live footage from the 88-inch telescope located on Mauna Kea, Hawaii.
Watch NASA Moon bombing Live online for free
1. Watch NASA moon bombing live online on NASA TV
2. Live stream of NASA moon bombing on SLOOH telescope system
3. Follow live updates of Moon bombing on the official LCROSS Twitter account.
Later, the NASA moon bombing videos will be on Youtube for sure. In case you missed the live streaming, you can check out the videos later!

The nation's largest mortgage lenders are rushing to keep up with the latest flip-flop from the agency that oversees mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the Federal Housing Finance Agency.
In an oddly timed email sent to a handful of reporters late Friday, Rep. Mel Watt, D-N.C.—who has been confirmed as the new head of the FHFA but not yet sworn in—made a major announcement that will directly affect mortgage rates. He said he would delay a decision made by current acting director, Ed DeMarco, to hike fees charged to lenders by Fannie and Freddie.
"I felt that it was important to announce my intentions now because of the prospect that some lenders could start to price the announced changes into the market well before the effective dates of the changes outlined in the FHFA's December 9, 2013 News Release," Watt wrote in the email sent from his personal account.

AAPF mourns the tragic loss of two dear friends, Vicky Coles-McAdory and Phyllis Croom.
Vicky Coles-McAdory, auntie-mama to India Beaty, was an integral and cherished member of the Say Her Name family. Vicky joined the Say Her Name campaign last year in an effort to bring about justice for her beloved India, who was killed by police officers in Norfolk, VA in February 2016.
In November 2016, Vicky joined 10 other mothers and sisters of Black women killed by the police for our first Say Her Name Family Weekend, an effort to provide a temporary sanctuary for women who had experienced unimaginable pain and to identify opportunities to support them. Mothers, sisters, and aunts traveled from the West Coast, the DMV Area, and the Southwest to meet each other, uplift their loved ones and strategize for action.
After that weekend, Vicky became a steadfast member of our family, joining us for the Women's March in DC, Say Her Name events in LA, and most recently, our annual Breaking Silence Summer Camp in Poughkeepsie, NY, only a month ago.
Maria Moore, sister of Kayla Moore, said, "Vicky loved to talk about her family, and I loved hearing her stories. She was everyone's auntie-mama, and her big heart had room for all who needed support. And boy did she have a dirty mind! She was uninhibited in her words and knew how to make people think deeply, as well as laugh. I was so blessed to be her friend."
Even in the face of tragedy, she believed we could find joy.
Vicky frequently said that her purpose was to share India's story so that no other family would have to experience the same pain that she did. As we mourn her death, we also honor her memory by redoubling our efforts to resist police brutality against Black women. We encourage those who would like to join us in honoring Vicky's life to donate to the GoFundMe page set up by her family in her memory.
Phyllis Croom, a writer and documentary filmmaker based in Baltimore, was a dear friend and longtime member of the AAPF family. Phyllis worked with AAPF for years, traveling with the team domestically and internationally to document our work. She spent most of her time behind the camera, serving as the videographer for events such as Breaking the Silence Oakland, Breaking the Silence New Orleans, and Oklahoma City Day of Accountability. She stepped in front of the camera briefly in February 2016 when she served as a panelist for a Her Dream Deferred webinar entitled "Neglected at Home While Serving Abroad: The Story of Black Women Veterans".
Most recently, Phyllis wrote and directed "Being Billie: Re-imagining Billie Holiday," a feature length documentary examining Billie Holiday's life as a Black woman who rose from the margins of society to become one of the most influential musicians of all time, and her subsequent impact on modern culture.
"Phyllis was the ultimate supporter of the African American Policy Forum," said Lisa Gissendaner, longtime friend of AAPF's and lead organizer of Breaking the Silence Ohio. "Her passion for intersectional justice was embodied through her tireless efforts and work on her film, Being Billie, which I watched for the first time at AAPF's annual Social Justice Writers Retreat in Jamaica. She left this work as a testament and homage to "the Lady" and Black women everywhere."
Memorial services for Phyllis will be held at 3 p.m., on Saturday, September 30, 2017, at Studio 4, 231 Holliday Street in Baltimore, MD.
Information on memorial services for Vicky will be released at a later date.

Michael Lewis is better noted for milling complicated subject material like mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations into compulsively readable bestsellers, including Liars Poker, The Large Short and Moneyball. His books get churned into movies that star Kaira Pitt and Ryan Gosling and Sandra Bullock.
In the realm of financial journalism really, just in journalism the 56-year-old New Orleans native is really a king. A rock-star uniform author towards the top of his craft, far beyond the sorts of workaday hacks plugging away at places such as the New You are able to Publish.
But in 1994, as he was senior editor in the New Republic, Lewis tackled a less complicated subject, one thats during the conversation now, thanks to the Publish: The down sides assertive being having a smoking-hot lady.
The most ill-created work of his career, announced a extended Vanity Fair profile of Lewis written a couple of years later. Though it masqueraded like a work of humbleness, it reeked from the pride that lay underneath the mask from the naif.
Lewis column came a good share of debate at that time angry faxes, telephone calls and real-paper letters. Entitled Scenic beauty, the extended piece describes Lewis then-wife, an old model who he never names, as terrifyingly beautiful. Residing in the cisco kid of this beauty is really a weird degradation, he writes, at some point describing a scene by which several men gather behind his wife to ogle her butt. Can you think that shit? one states.
Kate Bohner, then Lewis wife along with a author for Forbes, was blindsided, through the piece, remembered Joshua Levine, who labored together with her. Apparently, Lewis didnt let her know concerning the article prior to being printed.
Lewis piece one thinks of now, because the New York Post catches flack (and a lot of shares and clicks) to have an article inside a similar vein. The Publish story,Why I wont date hot women any longer, interviews a guy frustrated using the difficulties of linking with attractive models (and touches around the difficulties lady face dating super-hot dudes).
Beautiful ladies who obtain a fair quantity of attention get filled with themselves, Dan Rochkind informs the paper, explaining he accustomed to only pursue women for his or her looks. Eventually I had been dreading getting dinner together simply because they couldnt have a conversation. He states he's since settled for any lady who isn't a bathing suit model, but continues to be beautiful.
The Lewis column is, obviously, miles better written, crafted in the trademark conversational tone. However in the finish, theyre exactly the same: tales by what a womans looks mean to some man. The ladies are near the point. They're shiny objects.
In 1994, Lewis wife, Bohner, already had a remarkable resume: an undergraduate degree in the College of Pennsylvania, a couple of years being an investment banker in the esteemed Lazard firm. She also were built with a masters in journalism from Columbia.
Despite the fact that she wasnt named within the magazine, Bohners colleagues surely understood it had been about her. Like a lady who works inside a newsroom, this reporter are only able to imagine with horror exactly what the fallout could be like.
Lewis mentions nothing about Bohners levels or jobs. His article basically a webpage-lengthy humblebrag about how exactly he bagged a babe informs readers that she once made an appearance inside a full-page New You are able to Occasions advertisement for that Bloomingdales hosiery department. Since there isnt any photograph within the New Republic, Lewis helpfully provides a soft-core description from the ad:
It depicts a youthful lady, in my experience terrifyingly beautiful, reclining in midair, clad inside a black slip and spiked heels. Her mind tilts back, exposing the fragile type of her neck and creating a niagara of her thick golden hair, he writes. She curls certainly one of her lengthy slender legs under her perfectly formed bottom another she kicks as much as the top page just like a dancer inside a chorus line, he writes. What is shocking would be that the women in it's now my spouse.Inches
The piece offers four scenes, designed to demonstrate the down sides to be with your a precious jewel of the lady. In a tennis lesson, the teacher becomes aggressive and makes Lewis seem like a loser by drilling aces at him. In a restaurant, a maitre d fawns over his wife. At stores, its assumed Lewis pays top-dollar for whatever she would like. At some point, Lewis marvels when construction workers neglect to catcall his wife when theyre out together. He calls themself the tamer of the lionesss, because in the mind, hes protecting the development workers from her.
[Of] the numerous theories that purport to describe and interpret the function of female beauty in today's world,Inches he writes, none fully captures the weird degradation to be thoroughly connected with genuine.Inches
Bohner disappears in to the story. You can easily swap her out for, say, a really costly sports vehicle. Having a Porsche also includes difficulties you have to pay more for service and parts, valet parkers race to invite you in, store salesmen assume youll pay full cost. The Porsche lacks substance its only a vessel to help you look great. To Lewis and also to his New You are able to Publish counterpart, the new lady lacks substance, serving simply to reflect glory on her behalf owner. She is simply a pretty hotrod.
The Brand New Republic hasn't made the piece available on the web, but servings of it may be seen here:
The entire year 1994 was after Clarence Thomas arrived around the Top Court, despite the fact that hed been credibly charged with serious sexual harassment.But even just in that pre-Twitter era, when individuals were less inclined to take offense to sexism, Lewis piece elevated hackles.
It is discouraging to understand that your staffers is not easier to talk about than how women are sex objects and also to instruct us the more effective sex objects get plenty of perks, Sara Wermiel, a brand new Republic readers from Boston, authored towards the magazine, which ran one half-dozen complaints concerning the piece inside a subsequent edition. I cant remember ever finding something that reeked of these blatant self-promotion, authored Frederick Bornstein of recent You are able to City.
The Brand New Republic printed a 1-line response from Lewis: And she will prepare too.
Lewis suggested to Bohner after just three days of dating, based on Vanity Fair. He whisked her right into a jewellery store, suggested, and plunked lower $30,000 for any ring.
One readers predicted Lewis marriage towards the Bloomingdales model wouldnt last.
It didnt.
3 years after his column was printed, Lewis married Tabitha Soren, a professional photographer and former MTV newscaster. They're still together and also have three kids.
He offered a far more detailed defense of his article to the la Occasions a couple of years after it had been printed:
It only agreed to be an interesting little piece, intended to be touching, hes quoted as saying. If Id written it for Elle magazine, nobody might have compensated focus on it.
Lewis couldn't be arrived at for comment with this story.
Bohner declined to comment, but a minimum of we offered her the chance to talk for herself.

At long last…….new music from Fevers!
I first told you about Fevers' debut Passion Is Dead back in November 2011. Fast forward a year and half, and the band is getting ready to unleash it's followup. Having now heard the first single Dance Cry Dance, my interest has been piqued. I can't wait to hear the full album!
The opening vocal sequence on Dance Cry Dance sounds like something straight off an album from Björk. Cue the funky guitar groove and kick in the dancy beat. Call it indie, electro-pop, whatever. It doesn't matter. The sound is undeniably Fevers.
Turn it on, crank it up and just try to sit still. I dare you…

Seattle Seahawks Vice President of Football Administration John Idzik is the new GM of the New York Jets.
Idzik was a wide receiver at Dartmouth, comes from a football family, and has helped put together a Super Bowl-winning Tampa Bay Buccaneers team and a Cardinals team that made it to the Super Bowl.
With Seattle, his duties consisted of overseeing player negotiations, the team's compliance with the NFL salary cap, player personnel transactions, all football operations budgets, staff and team contracts, team travel and most aspects of the day-to-day football operations while also remaining active in player evaluations. He served as the club's primary liaison to the NFL Office and represents the club at League meetings.
Before joining Seattle in 2007, he was Senior Director of Football Operations for the Arizona Cardinals, and was Assistant General Manager with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2001-2003.
One of the biggest decisions he'll make this season will be at the quarterback position. Perhaps he can send a 4th rounder to Seattle for Matt Flynn. The Jets still have a lot of talent on defense under contract, and will be getting CB Darrelle Revis back from injury. Their first selection, if they don't trade back, will be 9th overall. Seattle was #1 in the NFL in points allowed at 15.3 PPG.
Hit "Like" or the Facebook share button if you are glad the Jets can now attend the East-West Shrine Game and the Senior Bowl practices and game with a GM!

Last week I went to Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse Point State park. I highly recommend seeing both of them. Pictures can be found here.
I just finished a three day tour of central Australia. I saw Uluru (Ayer's Rock) and King's Canyon. They were both really nice. Luckily the weather was unseasonably cool. When I arrived in Alice Springs the temp was 115 (typical for this time of year ), but the first day of the tour it was 95 and the last two days it didn't get over 80. I enjoyed the trip, but there are a LOT of tourists at Uluru, nothing like watching a sunset with 500 other people. I will be heading back to the US in about a week, so hopefully I will get some pictures uploaded soon.
I've just finished hiking the Northwest Circuit on New Zealand's third largest island. I really enjoyed it. The beaches were beautiful and the weather was really nice. I even saw a kiwi. I am sad that my time here is almost over.
Yesterday I went to Milford sound and took a cruise. It was really pretty with steep cliffs and lots of waterfalls. Eventually I will get some pictures of it uploaded. The drive to Milford Sound was also very pretty.
I arrived in Wanaka today. It is beautiful weather and the hostel has nice views of the lake. This is one of the bigger towns I have been in in awhile and my plan is to go see "The Hobbit" at the movie theatre next door.
Today I arrived in Twizel. If you are ever in this part of New Zealand, I recommend that you take Braemar road to drive from Lake Tekapo to Lake Pukaki, it is longer than the paved road, but the views of Mount Cook are spectacular.
Today I arrived in Arthur's Pass after hiking the Harper Pass track. I am slightly less tired than I was when I biked here 9 years ago. It is very small and the store has about one bookshelf of food, but it has what I need to get to the next town.
I just finished hiking from St. Arnaud to Boyle Village and am taking a few days off from hiking to spend some time by the ocean.
Hi everybody, I realize that for most of you it is only December 24th, but here it is already Christmas. This is my first Christmas in the southern hemisphere and I think I could get used to it. The weather is sunny and it is supposed to be 80 degrees today.and 15+ hours of daylight is really nice. Hope you all are staying warm and doing well. I have also uploaded more pictures to Dropbox.
This morning I arrived in St. Arnaud. It is a pretty little town on the edge of Nelson Lakes National Park. I will be spending Christmas Day here and then head further south on December 26th. The past two weeks I have hiked the Pelorus River Track (17.3 miles) and the Richmond Alpine Track

Regarding the "End of AIDS" Debate
Have we looked deeply enough into our motives?
First, this blog entry is meant as an explanation of questions that have haunted me for many years. Even before the current "End of AIDS" debate began, I wondered about the questions I pose here. I skirted with the subject briefly in my novel, but I did not delve as deeply into it as I will here. I want to be very clear that this is an exploration of a personal fears, and some doubts I have about the motives behind much of the debates we see in our community. It is not a suggestion of any one individual's or movement's actual motives.
The other day, I was terribly disheartened by Mark S. King's (MyFabulousDisease.com) op-ed on TheBody.com entitled "The End of AIDS is a Cynical Lie." To see this on the heals of learning about Zachery Quinto's unfortunate and sex-phobic remarks, I have had to think about why so many seeming smart people are so suspicious about where we are in this moment in history.
I think King's work usually brave and important. And I love Quinto's work as an actor. However, on this issue, I fear that they have both joined the ranks of naysayers who allow their personal vision of perfect to be the enemy of the good.
While the jury of public opinion may still be out, the academic and medical research communities seem to believe that we have the tools to nearly eradicate AIDS, and we have had them, unknowingly, for decades. With implementation of PREP and the knowledge that individuals who have undetectable viral loads are very unlikely to spread HIV sexually (see below), the tools to nearly "end" AIDS are in our hands. These studies also suggest that gay people simply have more sex (again see below) and we need to accept that this is true and stop wishing it would change.
The only unknown factor in the equation of whether AIDS can become a rarity in our lifetime is now only a measure of public health policy, and the reception of that policy by the general public. And there is no denying that those are still big questions.
But in my way of thinking, those that would draw a distinction between the literal end of AIDS and the near eradication of it are limiting the possibility of the near end being achieved. The argument that it is not really a cure is like saying the polio vaccine wasn't good enough because it didn't fully eradicate polio, or that TB treatments shouldn't have been implemented because people still contract TB. In this day and age, we don't actually celebrate the "end" of those diseases. But we acknowledge that their rarity is worth being called advancement, my sister would even say miraculous. And that is what I hear when I hear someone preach about the "end" of AIDS. And I am more than happy to hear the metaphoric-rallying cry, because it will take that kind of hope to achieve the "near end of AIDS".
King, like many others, has decided that because the promotion of "end" of AIDS is a metaphoric and not a literal end, that it is a sign of a cynical manipulation, designed to invigorate stale AIDS services fundraising. In some cases that may be true. But my experience is that most people who work in social service believe what they preach and that what that hope for is that the public will embrace a near end as a better reality than the one we face now.
But why would someone like King, who has spent his life in AIDS advocacy draw such a hard lined and disheartening stance? If we are in a world of degrees why are those most impacted insisting the arguments be linear? These are the questions that make my fears take root and my brain spin out of control: Is it possible that gay men of the past several generations are afraid of life without AIDS?
I am forty-five and I have not known a world without AIDS. It was there when I first had sex, when I first though I was gay. I have been HIV+ for twenty-five years. It is as much a part of my identity as my hair color. It is deeply intertwined with my sexuality and my sexual practices. And if AIDS does not exist, I am instantly as anachronistic as a wind-up watch in a world of digital timekeeping. And that, when closely examined, can be terrifying. Like many in my community, I fought long and hard to make living with HIV normal, and okay for others. What am I if that fight is simply no longer needed? How do I simply stop fighting when its all I have ever known? What am I if my life work results in that work being obsolete? Many others have done this kind of work to become self actualized with an HIV+ or Living-with-AIDS identity. Is it possible that the fear of embracing a near end to AIDS is partially a fear that this reality will drastically change the identity that we have so struggled to accept?
Is it possible that other anxieties are being transferred onto this debate? Is it possible that AIDS has been so ingrained in our identities that we are afraid of the world in which HIV might not be a normal occurrence? Are we incapable of addressing our own fears- at the cost of the health of others? Are we so self-absorbed and insecure that we would rather see HIV continue to spread at alarming rates, rather than find ourselves counted among the the last, lonely survivors on the wrong side of a clearly drawn line?
If that line of separation became real, if we really became the last generation to fear spread and infection with every sexual act, then would we not have to rethink all our choices? Would the fear and anxiety we once felt as being social outcasts not suddenly be revisited? Would we need to take up a different kind of fight to keep our dignity intact and not be forgotten? We know the realities of a world with AIDS and we are comfortable, even complacent, in it. What happen if the rules completely change and we have to find a new way to be?
Again, to be very clear, I am not suggesting that these ideas are what motivates King or Quinto. Mark and I have only exchanged social media niceties, I don't know him well enough to state that he has not resolved these questions within himself. And I have never met Quinto. But I am suggesting that maybe some in our community might take a closer look at the motivations behind their skeptical rhetoric. I suspect that the fear of becoming obsolete is behind much of Michael Weinstien's objections to PREP. We know his rhetoric about the "end of AIDS" has been confusing to donors and has lead to discussion of fundraising as a stunt. Like King, I fear the motives of this debate are both misdirected and wrongly motivated. We simply disagree on the motives and the direction.

Friends of Dorothy – SDCC 2015 ExclusiveJune 27th, 2015 |
If you don't know what 'Friend of Dorothy' means, you should catch up on this very important slang on Wikipedia.
I got the big news as I was working on this after an all nighter around 8 AM and my reaction was just pure shock. When we were younger we spent a lot of time and energy on activism and going to protests — we even flew out east to march in Washington DC. To be honest, I (Dusty), have grown pretty jaded about the subject over the years and really didn't expect to see this happen for a very VERY long time. It still kind of feels like the whole internet/news system is going to burst out laughing any moment and go "JUST KIDDING! Oh man, world, you should have SEEN your faces!"
So… Congratulations! Congratulations to US, the creators of this comic and probably 90% of the people we know. And to our queer readers! And to the USA for finally joining the sensible countries on our planet prepared to step out of the dark ages.
I wasn't going to actually post this for a few more days but I had to get it out there as soon as possible after the good news.
THIS my friends is the front cover of this year's San Diego Comic Con exclusive!
Unfortunately it's not ALL Wizard of Oz themed throughout but it is pretty fun.
Those of you who have been reading the comic since the very beginning — if there's any of you left — may recall that we originally started making it in black and white, using screentones. Halfway through chapter one, I started doing color instead and the comic was, obviously, never the same. So this year at SDCC we will have a limited number of copies which includes not only this MAGICAL OZ COVER (with inside cover printing) but also the first half of the comic as it was originally released, in black and white.
This cover got seriously carried away with itself. This is a book that I (Dusty) have been wanting to make as an exclusive for a VERY long time and we were trying to keep it simple… but when you love something, that's hard. So JD went NUTS with my idea. And then I had to go nuts with it. There's also back cover art.
We'll have more info right around the corner about where to find us at AnimeExpo and San Diego Comic Con and further details about new MSF content.

In my last post, I outlined the process of writing my own plugin to integrate my pool system to the rest of the automation system. Well, it turns out I'd like to do the same with my whole house audio system.
Like the Pentair Intellitouch system, the NuVo Grand Concerto has a serial port for exactly this kind of purpose. I already know how to talk to and read from a serial port at this point, so that's good. Also, the Grand Concerto serial port operates at a MUCH higher speed than the Intellitouch, which makes the whole plugin feel faster and snappier. Funny how significant fractions of a second can seem.
For the most part, this plugin was going to operate pretty similar to the Pentair one. You will be able to create devices in Indigo, and then turn on and off zones, set volume and source, etc... Now, I actually don't have a huge desire to integrate this with Indigo. The Grand Concerto keypads are fully functional, and usually more convenient that digging out my iPhone (considering that when I want to listen to music, I'm in that room anyway, very near a keypad). The reason I created this plugin was that I wanted Indigo to be able to make household announcements. This would require activating the relative zones, switching inputs to something the computer could use, making the announcement, and then setting things back to how they were. I was going to need to write a plugin for this.
So, I downloaded the serial protocol to the Grand Concerto as well. As I was reading through this, I found you could also send a text message to any keypad (active or not) and it will show up for a few seconds. How could I not add in that functionality as well?
Writing the first plugin was a pretty big task and took me a pretty long time. However, once that was done and I had the knowledge, writing the second plugin was simple. I was able to write this inside of a week using just my spare evenings after work and after my kid went to bed. The bulk of the work was one in the first 2 evenings, with the fine tuning work dragging out over the rest.
At this stage, I am actually encouraged by the appearance of a serial device on anything I want to add to my home, since I'm confident I can whip up the appropriate plugin and communicate with it in short order.
You can download it here.

Today the Supreme Court released its decision in O'Brien: 2013 SCC 2. Yesterday I posted about this case and commented on the possible impact of the Court's ruling: Finding fear in all the right places.
Two aspects of the ruling are interesting. First, the legal analysis. Fish J, for the majority held that "it is not an essential element of the offence under s. 264.1(1)(a) that the recipient of the threats uttered feel intimidated by them or be shown to have taken them seriously" [para 13]. Rothstein J, for the minority agreed. As I noted in my post yesterday, this is an interesting point. That all members of the Court agreed, and with little real analysis, that the subjective view of the recipient of the threat is not determinative is somewhat notable. It has been held and accepted by many that this is not only an important but fundamental aspect of a threats charge. Regardless, as I noted in my earlier post - whether it was always the law or is now the law - this is a beneficial and legally sound view of the elements of a threats charge.
Second, the dispute between the majority and minority relates to the interpretation of the trial judge's ruling. The trial judge held as follows:
So I have to consider the evidence of Ms. [W] when I consider the mental element or the mens rea. Normally the mens rea is taken from the words of the accused, absent any explanation from the accused, and as I pointed out at the outset you have chosen not to testify, as is your right. But the evidence in this case is somewhat unusual in the sense that Ms. [W] has told the court that she was not concerned about the threats, that you shoot your mouth off, if I can use the vernacular, that she did not want you charged, she did not take the threat seriously. And so it is incumbent, and the court is required, to consider the words in the context of the evidence of Ms. [W], and when I do so, despite the fact that I am actually quite concerned about the actus of the offence, the comments, the words, I must say that I do have a reasonable doubt about the mental element of the mens rea of the offence because of the evidence of Ms. [W], the fact she did not take them seriously, and as I pointed out at the outset it is incumbent upon the Crown to prove all elements of the case beyond a reasonable doubt. So despite my concerns I am entering an acquittal on the charges of utter threats, …
While the majority found that it was open to the trial judge to consider W's perception, the minority felt the trial judge asked the wrong question - and acquitted on the basis of W's perception. With respect, it looks like that is exactly what the trial judge did. Perhaps, in fairness, the learned trial judge was of the same view as many others, that the recipient's view is highly probative and indeed, determinative. At any rate, that is not the law - at least not any more.

I can provide all your
CARF Model support
as well as technical advice on engines, radio setups, installations and specialty items
call me 301-785-3022
I offer a complete line of all the CARF-MODEL aircraft. Below is just a small sampling of my favorite planes. Please contact me with any questions Andy Kane.
I am pleased to offer a complete selection of High Quality, High performance Model Aircraft
The SF-260 is one of the
world's most revered military trainers, with some 880 aircraft in service and
27 different military customers around the world. It was, and still is,
marketed also as an aerobatic plane as well. Stelio Frati (the F in SF-260)
designed this airplane in the early 60s for Aviamilano, which was later
purchased by SIAI Marchetti (the S in SF-260). It
is powered by a 260 hp 6-cyl Lycoming engine (denoted by… yeah, right, the 260
in the name…).
The flight
characteristics, performance and style of the SF-260 are second to none, making it a favorite not
only of military flight schools, but of airshow pilots, civil professional flying schools, and anyone who loves
fast, beautiful, great-flying airplanes.
Price: $2990.00
I think that this is the ultimate Turboprop plane in terms of beauty and performance. Some really nice aerobatic schemes and great military schemes are possible.
It has a large wing and a very strong and stable landing gear. Control surface size and the right tail moment provide great flying characteristics, wide speed range, slow landings and precise aerobatics. The CARF-Models Tucano is designed to suit the Jet Cat SPT-5, the WREN MW54 and the Jet Central (Artes) JF-50 Turboprops. All 3 engines perform very well and suit the plane perfectly. A specially designed engine mount box made of carbon fiber makes it easy to install the engines accurately, and operate them safely.
Price: $3490.00
The new Ultra Flash, with it's swept back wing, increased span and curved wing tip, has produced the most amazing flying qualities. From the first flight we knew we had produced our best flying sport jet. This was confirmed as each of our team pilots had their chance to try the Ultra Flash for the first time. You too will experience the same joy as you complete the first landing, so easy, so pure!
The Flash has a very wide speed range, but not every pilot was able to unlock this potential, the Ultra Flash has a wider speed range, from very fast to just incredibly slow. The new wing features larger conventional landing flaps without the airbrake section from the Flash. These flaps are hugely powerful and allow all pilots to experience the joy of slow passes and easy short field landings.
The Ultra Flash also features trailing link main undercarriage struts as standard. This makes the Ultra Flash suitable for any flying strip surface, particularly grass sites. We have used the proven Behotec C-36 undercarriage units which have been Ultra reliable in the Flash, now with the addition of trailing link struts manufactured from the finest alloys, giving incredible strength coupled with lightness. A gear set requiring no updates or changes for perfect operation.
Price: $2490.00
The CARF Tutor is extremely well prefabricated. All joints between wing, stab and any control surface are factory finished. Even the main gear doors are hinged. Servo mounts are pre-built, the engine mount is readily installed and aligned and even for fuel, smoke and hopper tank. All provisions and mounts are readily built in. Construction time for an experienced builder should not be more than 25 hours. Even a Jet Novice should have this Tutor in the air within 50 hours, thanks to the comprehensive instruction manual.
Price: $2790.00
The Sukhoi SU-31 is a single engine aerobatic aircraft that is very popular in airshows. It is a lighter and more powerful version of the Sukhoi SU-26. The Sukhoi SU-31 is the most agile and powerful aerobatic aircraft in production today, and once other manufacturers add performance to their flagships, Sukhoi usually has already raised the bar with new design features or more power. The full size aircraft is almost an all composite aircraft just like our model.
Price: $3590.00
Folding wing Corsair with electric conversion on wings and landing gear
This 110
inch wing span Folding Wing ARF CARF Models Corsair has been refitting with
aftermarket Electric Landing Gear ELG and Electric Wing Operators EWO. This video shows the complete operation of
the gear and wing. I can provide the
conversion for you and it eliminates the need for hydraulic pump or fluid bag
for the wing and large air system for the gear.
Just a very small air system is used for operate the gear doors.
Price for wing and gear conversion and door sequencer: $2150.00
I know how you want them to fly! www.carf-models.com

As an inveterate lover of church history and books, I wholeheartedly recommend a daily dose of reading "stuff" from the past. In what has become a famous essay that C. S. Lewis initially wrote as an introduction for an anonymous translation of Athanasius' On the Incarnation, Lewis actually argued that for every book we read from the present, we also ought to read at least two from the past ["Introduction" to St. Athanasius: On the Incarnation (1944 ed.; repr. Crestwood, New York: St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary, 1982)]. There may be some, though, who simply cannot meet such a commitment. For them, the next best thing might be to pick up a book of daily readings from a bygone era. Over the last few years, Terence Peter Crosby—one-time Secretary of the Evangelical Library in London, England, and holder of a PhD in Classics—has been making such volumes of extracts from the sermons of the so-called Prince of Preachers, Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892). The third volume in this series of extracts has just appeared. Entitled 365 days with Spurgeon (Leominster, UK: Day One Publications, 2005), the selection is mostly taken from sermons preached from 1867 to 1873—roughly half-way through Spurgeon's remarkable ministry.
In his day, some likened Spurgeon to a rocket on a stick: the rocket had gone up high and amazed all of the onlookers, but it would soon plummet to earth like a stick ["The Rev. C. H. Spurgeon", The British and Foreign Evangelical Review, 15 (1866), 191]. But these prophecies were proven false. Spurgeon's sermons proved indeed to be a long-lasting marvel that still delight readers. This is not at all surprising. After all, embedded within them were the riches that Spurgeon had himself mined from his reading of the past—that rich vein of piety and robust Calvinism from the Evangelicals in the century prior to that of Spurgeon and from the 17th century Puritans and the English Reformers in the 16th century.
And this newest volume from Crosby is vintage Spurgeon. Consider this portion of the reading for September 19, taken from a sermon that Spurgeon preached in 1867 on Psalm 31:19 and that was entitled "David's holy wonder at the Lord's great goodness":
"The phrase 'the fear of God' is used, especially in the Old Testament, for the whole of piety. It does not merely signify the one virtue of fear—it does not signify that feeling at all in the sense of slavish fear—but it takes a wide sweep. The man who had the fear of God before his eyes, was one who believed in God, worshipped God, loved God, was kept back from evil by the thought of God, and moved to good by the desire to please God. …The fear of God, I say, was the expression used for the whole of religion."
For each of the 366 extracts—one is included for February 29—Crosby has added a Scripture reading and a small section entitled "For Meditation." Occasional, helpful notes for understanding historical allusions and facts mentioned in the sermons are also included. Subject and Scripture indices round out this very attractive reader. Pick it up and read it day by day. It will do wonders for your heart and mind.

A round up of my favourite Wedding Images of 2015
I had such a great time putting this post together, re-visiting all the cracking weddings I shot this year. As I chose images to include I began to wonder if there was a recipe that drew me to certain photographs, why I loved them so much. Light definitely comes into it - rather an obvious statement coming from a photographer, but I love interesting shadows, soft and harsh and those fabulous moments when mother nature offers up an undeniable gift of a perfectly timed and placed ray of light.
I also love the unexpected. I've learned to expect the unexpected when it comes to wedding photography, anything goes, and its this aspect that ensures each and every wedding is unique. I get to document these moments and that makes my heart sing!
What speaks to most though, has to be emotion. Emotive imagery really touches me and that doesn't come from posing, it comes from real life, real connections. The varied emotions involved in a wedding day, from babies to grandparents and everyone in-between, you can bet there'll be tears and smiles but throw in a nervous glance, a toddler tantrum or two and some serious elation and I know I'll have some winning photo's. I come home from every wedding I shoot literally buzzing and feel some serious excitement when I load up what I've shot!
And love. That's what it's all about. And its always there, in all its glory wherever you look. I get to photograph that, and it rocks!
Come follow me, I'd love to have you on board!

Read more on here.
Moving on to the texture of the product itself. It is baffling because it is anything but a gel-texture. The texture is a clear, runny liquid which is slightly thicker than water, just a tad bit. It doesn't irritate my skin and didn't dry my skin at all after washing. My skin felt clean afterward and it has a fresh grassy scent to it too, very refreshing. I love the packaging too because the bottle has a tiny hole in the middle so we won't spill too much product in our hand. It doesn't lather much but it surely does it's job really well. It suitable to teenager skin, acne-prone-skin and all skin types actually.

text: A tale of jazz and murder, Chicago opens against the backdrop of a seedy mid-1920's nightclub where Velma Kelly takes the stage. Amid the smoky atmosphere, her lone presence onstage marks the permanent end to the double-act that she and her sister had become famous for. After finding her sister in bed with her husband moments before the show, Kelly's sordid double homicide lands her in prison and on the front page. Dissatisfied with her conventional life, aspiring star Roxie Hart slinks through jazz clubs in search of men that will help her make it big. One night while her husband is out, she shoots her boyfriend in a crime of passion, blinded by her fantasies of one day being in the spotlight. Incarceratedin the Cook County Jail alongside Kelly and the Murderesses of death row, her desire of fame and flash-bulbs become reality. With the help of silver-tongued celebrity lawyer Billy Flynn, Hart "razzle-dazzles" the press and becomes the latest criminal sweetheart - buying publicity and cashing in on her notoriety to finally see her name in lights.

Here are a few ideas for Christmas gifts and additions to your celebratory meals that you can get through the Meadowridge GFC for our December order! We all want to support small, local businesses at this time of the year.
- Give a beautiful glass jar of Trump and Timbal coffee – available in 350g or 800g. You can choose between their Uganda Budisu or their special Yuletide Blend which is limited to this Christmas season.
- Chocolate! The CocoaFair chocolate covered nuts and dried fruit make the perfect hostess gift or stocking filler.
- Display the most gorgeous and tastiest cheese plate this festive season with Klein River Cheese's incredible selection.
- Homemade Soap is always thoughtful, or how about All Natural deodorant? I also like to give the Pure Beginnings bubble bath as a pressie for kids.
- Fill up those snack bowls with dried fruit and nuts – you are unlikely to find them at a better price somewhere else! Filling a jar with oven roasted pecans makes a lovely homemade gift!
- Fill a jar or festive bag with some delicious droewors or biltong from Ryan Boon. The venison biltong is a new favourite of mine!
- Christmas Meat – get the best tasting free range, grass-fed, hormone free meat for your Christmas dinner and lunch! Rack of lamb, leg of lamb, fillet or rib eye steaks, turkey, duck, gammon, pork belly or spareribs.
- Smoked salmon, cold meats, pates and hummus could all add to a decadent starter for one of your festive meals, along with some corn chips.
- Honey or Jam – tie a ribbon around a jar of raw honey or homemade jam for a gift that would please any foodie.
- Fill up your salt and pepper cellars with GMO free spices.
- It's a good idea to keep a stash of frozen berries in the freezer so that you have them to hand to warm up and spoon over ice cream or use in other Christmas puddings and cakes.
- Give a new mom a break, and why not stock their freezer with some healthy and delicious Umatie Baby Food.
- Don't forget the ultimate heart behind Christmas – giving. Why not give a R30 donation to Hands and Feet.
- Finally, I have more stainless steel straw sets to sell – stock is limited. I'm giving one as a Secret Santa present 😉
Have a blessed and restful Christmas season everyone!

UMaine-Farmington junior Emmah Spahr (Winthrop, Maine) has been selected as the North Atlantic Conference (NAC) East Division Field Hockey Player of the Year, while Husson senior Whitney Arno (Dover-Foxcroft, Maine) was tabbed Defensive Player of the Year. Colby-Sawyer freshman Alie Jones (Cape Neddick, Maine) earned Rookie of the Year honors, UMaine-Farmington senior Patty Smith (Gorham, Maine) was voted as the Senior Scholar Athlete of the Year, the Beavers head coach, Cyndi Pratt, was chosen as the Coach of the Year and six field hockey student-athletes were selected to the Sportsmanship Team to headline the 2016 All-Conference announcement.
NAC All-Conference selections are determined by a vote of the conference coaches.
Spahr has had a tremendous junior year with the Beavers. Against conference opponents, the forward topped the league in both goals (8) and points (16). She also landed in a tie at the top for game-winning goals (2) and in the top-two in both shots (22) and shots on goal (16). Spahr scored at least one goal in each conference game, including a hat-trick in a 3-1 win over Husson and the only goal of the game in a 1-0 win over Colby-Sawyer. In the most recent NCAA statistical rankings, she sits in 10th with 1.29 goals per game and in 22nd with 2.57 points per game. The junior's 18 goals so far this season place her one score short of the all-time single season record at UMF which has stood since 1995.
Arno has been solid for a Husson defense that has only allowed seven goals and tallied a 1.40 goals against average in conference action, both of which are good for second overall in the league. The Eagles only allowed eight or less shots on goal against all conference opponents, including two games in which the defense only allowed two or less shots on goal. The senior recorded two defensive saves against league opponents this season, which tied her for first in the NAC East. In the most recent national rankings, her previous six overall defensive saves ranked her 26th in all of Division III, she has since tallied another defensive save. Against nationally-ranked Bowdoin, she tied the single-game record for defensive saves with three, helping limit the Polar Bears' to only two goals, the lowest goal total in Husson program history. In her career, she has played in 55 of Husson's 67 games and is currently tied for the most career defensive saves as an Eagle with 12.
Jones has enjoyed a phenomenal first season with the Chargers. In conference play, the rookie finished the season ranked in the top ten in goals (4, T3rd), game-winning goals (1, T4th), points (8, T8th), and shots on goal (9, T10th). Her NAC East game-winner came in a big 2-1 win over Thomas with less than three minutes to play. Overall this season, Jones has found the back of the cage 15 times, assisted on four goals, and posted three game winners for a total of 34 points. In just her first collegiate season, she holds the single-season record for both points and goals at Colby-Sawyer. In the nation, the freshman currently ranks 34th with 0.94 goals per game and 48th with 2.13 points per game. She was selected NAC East Rookie of the Week six times and was named ECAC Rookie of the Week once this season.
Smith is being recognized for excelling both academically and athletically throughout her undergraduate experience. Impressively, the senior is double majoring in Outdoor Recreation Business Administration and International & Global Studies, while also earning a minor in Environmental Studies upon graduation in the spring of 2017. Taking advantage of all of her opportunities as a student, she spent one semester in New Zealand to further develop her diverse learning experience. Smith has been named an NFHCA Scholar of Distinction for the past three years and is in line to receive that award again this year. On the field, she has been an outstanding goalkeeper and leader. This season, Smith topped the NAC East with a league-best 4-1 record, a low 1.20 goals against average and two shutouts, while also recording 22 saves and a .786 save percentage in conference action. The 2015 NAC Defensive Player of the Year has been named NAC Defensive Player of the Week ten times in her three year career at UMF and has recorded an impressive 10 shutouts.
Pratt, now a two-time Coach of the Year (Co-Coach in 2006), has directed her team to another postseason appearance by claiming the No. 1 seed in the 2016 NAC East Tournament. The Beavers have competed in the NAC Tournament every year since 2002 and have most recently competed in the championship game the last two seasons. Against conference opponents, UMF finished the 2016 season ranked in the top-two in five statistical categories including goals (14, T1st), goals per game (2.8, T1st), goals against (6, 1st), goals against average (1.20, 1st), and save percentage (.786, 2nd). According to the most recent NCAA Division III rankings, the Beavers are in the top-50 in six categories including 25th in shutouts per game (0.36), 36th in winning percentage (.714), scoring average (3.14), and goals per game (3.14), 42nd in scoring margin (1.43) and 46th in points per game (7.93). Pratt has recorded 143 wins throughout her career.
Joining Jones and Spahr as All-Conference forwards were juniors Emily Lowell (Brandon, Vt.) from Castleton and Lauren Russell (Saco, Maine) from Husson.
Colby-Sawyer senior Allyse Mullen (Wilder, Vt.), Husson junior Mikayla Toth (Skowhegan, Maine) and Thomas sophomore Katie Taylor (Lebanon, Maine) were honored as All-Conference midfielders.
All-Conference defender selections included Arno, Colby-Sawyer junior Jesse Murch (Poland, Maine), and UMaine-Farmington junior Lee-Anne Greenleaf (Gardiner, Maine).
Smith was honored as the All-Conference goalkeeper.
The NAC East Field Hockey Sportsmanship Team is reserved for those who have distinguished themselves through demonstrated acts of sportsmanship and ethical behavior. The honorees are individuals who have positively affected the field hockey culture and environment and whose behavior clearly demonstrates sportsmanship and integrity that go beyond the playing rules and etiquette. The following six individuals have been selected to the 2016 Sportsmanship Team, Castleton junior Cassidy Auger (Bomoseen, Vt.), Colby-Sawyer sophomore Jordan Teixeira (Exeter, N.H.), UMaine-Farmington senior Emily Lewia (Wells, Maine), Husson senior Mary St. Cyr (Dedham, Mass.), New England College senior Carissa O'Brien (Johnstown, N.Y.), and Thomas' Taylor.

This month, I have been featured in Photo Pro Magazine, talking about a great new service to photographers called PinHole Pro.
Pinhole Pro have formed a partnership with GF Smith, to launch an affiliate program that allows professional photographers to collect a commission when their clients place orders for high-end photo products such as; photo books, calendars and cards at PinholePress.com.
With the demand of images to be sold on CD/ DVD increasing, i have found it hard to keep track on where my images go and how they are used. I worry about the quality of products if clients go straight to a high street printers and how this reflects upon my work. With Pinhole-Pro, we can keep track on how our images are used and be assured that prints and products will be of the best quality (and be earning from it too!)
