Believe me it's me and before you go remember what I told you about moving to slow. You should have sped up you should have moved quick the faster you move the more life's a trip. The more life's a trip the more you move fast and after it all you can never go back. I loved life myself. I had to go through with my head in the clouds and myself on the move. I thought I would get there I just didn't dam know that the faster you went the faster it'd go. You should have slowed down you should have done more for you you should have taken back the things that you do and went forward more slowly on the longer dam ride and believed me I know it we both friggen tried to enjoy it but the harder we tried the faster it went and we both kinda lied if we thought we where getting to where we getting to. So if you ever did get there please let me know. If I got there the answer is a big fucking no. I got basically to the place where everyone go. The end of the end the place they call death and I knew when I got there like everyone says you could have done it differently and if you fucking knew you probably would have done it differently too. Together we made it though through all the past together we made it let's neither look back. I wouldn't look back cause I know what I'll do have as many regrets as as many of you. If you say no regrets to this very day I would honestly say I'm completely dismayed. I have had so many regrets and as much as that is my life's going on and I'm only in my 30's still yet.

Today was the day when Rome came around full force besieged full forces down. The war was all started the beginning and end and to lose all the fight was to lose all the men. Today it all started the fight worth the fight the mightiest might was the might of the might. I put my own place with the men and the warriors. I was first inline for the in store of the the fight and I was the first inline to feel the might of the night. I wheedled my sword and shield and plunged to my death and this is what I said with my very last breath. I came as a warrior and I leave as one too but tonight was the night that my life is all thru. I won many battles I fought with the best and to lose this battle I'd have to come to my rest. I besieged many cities I fought long and hard I have struggled in battles only to lose only yards. I never before went to my knees and to lose only battles was to lose only to ones fear and I have never lost ever. As my own life is a true mirror of the truth and the one who had won because to lose I would have to be done and finished and I wasn't to this very day. To beat me is to kill me and then only then can you call it a victory I said to my very last friend. He replied back to know you is to respect you my friend as the truth is that I've fought many of men but only to you would I kneel for the art slow to know you is to fear you only I've come to love you like a brother and the true end is here it is only to lose you as my friend is my lonely last fear. As I felt the sword plunge I looked to my left and I saw the collapse of my lonely last friend. I looked at the night the fight was a fight and I soon realized my last night was this night. To look upon the night now I knew only then to believe in ones self you had to believe it would end. I always believed that it would I always believed the true truth that to besiege ones fear one had to conquer the notion that life is a battle up hill or not to lose the battle was to quit the one fight you couldn't dam stop. I relished the fact that I went out with a fight and I relished the fact that to this very night I had to believe that the true end was near to win the fight was to win over fear. I had beaten it then and to this very day I have conquered my fear and lived my life full cause without fear holding me hostage I was free. Free to be me. Free to fight fights and free to be the one person with the might of the might.
I have but the moment and time to move slow I felt from beyond the time the time that was gone. From beyond the time passed, the future was there and not going back from my never now fear, I looked to the future to make it all clear. It was the belief in oneself that fought only fear that brought me back to the realm and made every thing clear. The clearer it was the faster it grew and the life that I known and the people I knew move beyond distant they where now in the past and the whole world around me wouldn't' ever come back. I was gone to the after before the true end I had but one notion one message to send. I am here to tell you the secret of life don't ever look back and wonder the right or the wrong cause when you look back at your life it's to strong of a feeling of moral regrets and feelings of empty things that where there that just couldn't be and the thought that somewhere somebody would be judging all me. I came to the conclusion no matter the who I just couldn't believe the things you could do and the things that you couldn't believe in your soul that people are real wherever you go.

Upon further ponderance I have come to the conclusion that time does not exist except in the law of physics. I have come to this conclusion through the observation of how things change and why they change at the pace in which they change. To me it seems that every change that takes place in the universe is not dictated by time but rather physics. It is the law of physics that dictates the rate and speed at which all things change. For example if you have a car that is traveling at 100 miles an hour the speed at which the car travels is all dictated by physical changes and therfor controlled by the law of physics..Therfor it seems that for any change to take place all you need is physics and the law of physics that governs the physical changes. Time does not need be a factor and bears no relavance. As long as we have the law of physics everything will happen in accordance with those laws.
Time has 3 components. A front a middle and a rear. In the front time has what appears to be something of perspectual perspectualness that will move things forward at a set forth proponent. This part of time is easy to see and witness. However it is not easy to predict at which point time will make forward momentum happen. It would seem that this forward momentum is always in inactment but I would disagree with this. To me it seems more as if time interacts with things on its own accord leaving somethings unchanged for long standing periods of time. An example of this would be how time occasionally interacts with the speed of light. The speed of light remains constant but occasionally time will manifest itself into the equation and make modifications of the speed that light travels. For instance light will move forward forthwittingly at a billion miles a second but if it encounters any kind of resistance then time will inject itself and change the speed at which it was moving. Which leads me to the assumption that in order for time to inject itself into any equation a proponent has to take place that makes a physical change that would cause time to interject itself. If no physical change takes place than time has also not been a factor.
The middle proponent of time is the area in which time is manipulating the change that takes...Read More
I get turned on by some funny stuff. I'm not really into like full blown kinkiness or at least I wouldn't consider myself to be a kinky person but I do have a few fetishes. Some of them are a little out of the ordinary. For instance I have this one fetish about being tied up and thrown in the ocean and then rescued by a mermaid. I think this fantasy comes from when I was a kid and I used to dream of mermaids and always wanted to meet one. Well one day its gonna happen. Now don't go telling me mermaids don't exist. You don't know cause they are in fact real and as soon as I meet one I will prove it to you. As far as some of my other turn ons I guess what really gets me excited is people who tell other people to shut the fuck up. I love when a woman just looks at a man and tells him to shut his mouth. To me thats a big turn on because the woman seems assertive like a dominatrix or something. If she will be assertive in a conversation she will be assertive in the bedroom or so I would like to believe.
To fathom the fortrighteousness of time one has to contemplate the personification of forthwittial forthwittil. Time forthwittingly will only listen to the commands of its on inner personification to which there is no directional direction or so it would seem but on further inquisitories I have come to realize that there is a forthwittingly forthwittal of which time has pronounced and those commands seem to speak to the nature of to which time corresponds. To review these pronouncements for your own bemusement look at time as if you had it captured it in a bottle. What would happen? We know on the inside of the bottle time would force the inner workings of the bottle to correspond to times diabolical commands. Causing everything to change to times everlescent rules. however on the outside of the bottle things would not change, everything would stay in constant neutrality or would it? The question remains if there was no time would things still be allowed to happen and if so at what pace and what would dictate the pace at which things would change. There seems to be no rule in place for the dictation of the pace change which takes place. So it would seem that time has decided that factor somehow within itself. There could be a correlation at which things change and the pace being dictated by physics and the amount the physical world can be allowed to change within its own accord of set boundaries. To actually find...Read More

There was a time when time did not matter. The thing that was an utmost relevance now was of no matter. The diffrence it made seemed miniscule and now it is constantly dictating everything that takes place before me. What is this thing that controls and makes everything manifest itself to its constraints and why and how does it do this. Time is nothing but the utmost miracle before us. Something that has always had to exist for anything ever to take place. There is no changing its course there is no variance in its absolute everlasting existance. To control time would be the utmost crown jewel of all accomplishments if indeed it could ever be controlled. The only way I ever see time being manipulated to change its values is to speed up everything that time has interacted with. In order to do such a thing you would have to understand the nature of the objects in question and how they are effected by time. For instance a speeding car will slow down in time without constant force being distrubuted by the engine. To slow down the car one only has to take their foot off the accelarator and gradually time will do the rest but if you could freeze time at the speed at which the car was traveling then time would not exist because the...Read More
I have looked at time many times and I have noticed a few components. There is a precise proponent that ushers in a manifestation. Whenever something new is going to happen you can look at that event which is about to take place and precisely predict exactly when it has started. Once you realize a manifestation has taken place you can precisely predict its out come. If you know that a manifestation has started to take place then you will know you are being guided through the realm precisely by the forces of an enlightenment. Throughout time this manifestation will remain constant starting with a beginning and an end and ending in a preconcieved enlightenment. Sometimes an enlightenment can take weeks and some times an enlightenment can take centuries. It depends on how many times that enlightenment has been benounced to the realm.

I suspect a suffcient of sufficence of suffiacantel suffiance of suffiance of absurdity of absurdanace. In all actual actuality there is an actual actuality of actualityness in retrospect to the retorospective respect in which every person who has an intellectual intellect can see that the world is a prominance of prominance in which the order will reside as long as the order is maintained. Once that order is relinquished chaos will ensue. For chaos to be a calamity there only needs to be a perspectual perspective of perspectance that escalates the chaos to that height. What would cause that is a person or persons in the realm of the realmatical realmatics looking beyond thier own existance to the existance of there forfathers to see what has become of thier existance. If you look at your own existance for what it is you will see that it is neither logical nor illogical for it makes all the sense of a sensimatical sensematic. As long as you have a reason for your own existance then it is fruitful for you to exist. Once that reason or reasons are gone you will no longer care whether it is you live or die. In the realm in which we live is a prospectus prospectant of prospectantin which all will ensue. To change the prospectus prospectus you need to look to the realm and see what the prospectus prospectant is and manifest it to your own liking. My...Read More
In all actual reality the realm is manifested of certain procedural procedures that come forth frequently to forthrightous forthrightenous. In the place of predicament I have found that I can properly place things in the procedural sequence unbenowst to people of the realm. In order to conflict the conflictions you have to equate the equation of equationalness in to proper equations. Very simple but also very tedious. You do this by equating the equation into percise preciseness. An example of an equation would be a placement of perdicament of a certain event in which you wish it to be. The next manifestation I could manifest is a manifestual manifestation of manifests of a sequance of certainal circumstances. Put together a sequence by asking the sequence in order to manifest itself and then tell the manifestations to happen in frequence in which they will unfold.
If the future is a grain of sand and its falling through an hour glass nothing in the world can stop it. It will eniquivaocalby blind as to where its going when it comes to its rest it has befallen its fate and will remain where it lay for an eternity knowing nothing about itself or it's surroundings. I am that grain of sand. Nothing ever can change my destiny for only time here makes a diffrence.. To benounce the future is the only way to change ones fortune. The time it takes to make an equivical change remains the utmost mystery of the universe.
There where three men. All who seemed frightened. They stood on the edge of the canyon looking on as a fourth man tumbled to his death. We could have saved him said one of the men. He should have saved himself said another. The third man just look at them bewildered and brought a handgun to his own head and pulled the trigger. Blood spattered. The two men watched as he slumped to the ground. The first man screamed and the second threw himself to the side of the man on the ground. Why?!! he screamed. It was the only sound heard. Sobbing he looked at the man standing and said you did this! You and your frigging righteous speech about the lives we leave and the sacrifice we must make. Your the devil. I am not the devil said the standing man only the truth. The truth about what? The other man screamed. Your life he said and he jumped.
The man heard a ringing and he sat up slowly. It was over the dream but his thoughts where still on the side of the canyon. How did this happen. How did it all just fade away? The dream came and went in an instant leaving his mind boggled and his eyes heavy. I knew I was there thought the man but how? It was all to familiar the...Read More
The story of Elijah and Ellan. This is the story of Elijah and Ellan. Ellan is a beutiful temptress and Elijah is a dutiful servant of Ellan's. Together the pair fell in love and soon became a duo of in excessible excession. They frolicked in the sun under the rare occurance of rain they took shelter in the arms of each other. One day while hiding from the glares of the sun under an oak tree that provided an abundance of shade they looked into each others souls and realized there where no people suited for each other then the two of them where suited for each other. They basked in the notion that they where the most two compatible souls on the planet. As they where thinking this a giant unforseen acclamaited acclamation occurred. The planet began to tremble and shake beneath them and the stars came out. The sun hid amongst the clouds and everything from start to finish began to take shape. There where huge explosions and giant surges of wind and rain. The two began to run for their shelter knowing at the exact moment the trembling and violent agressions of unacclaimated weather started that they most likely wouldn't make it to see another sunrise. The planet was exploding with molten lava and the tempertures where unbearable as for the two of them could remember they had never seen a winter climate and didn't expect they ever would. The planet had been warming out of...Read More
Things have gone down hill drastically now for a very long time. We seem to be some what defeated but yet i know we still have some power and prominance. We are fighting an up hill battle and there is no way forward from here from what i can see. We are trudging along a path that goes nowhere.
Today i conquered and beat all adverseries there where to beat. Tomorrow new adversaries will arise. I will be ready, there is never a shortage of enemies who wish to dethrone me from the top of the world. I didn't get here by being passive and yeilding to the oppostion. I got here by defeating them both mentally and physically and in entiriety.
There was a time when I was in desilute despair. The only thing I had was me myself and I to fall back on. I looked at the person who was my opponent and I knew one of us was going to die and I was going to do everytrhing I could to make dam sure it wasn't me. I pulled my six shooter from its holster and aimed at the guy looking at me about 30 yards away. He also went for his gun and in lightning speed he was laid sprawled out on the dirt bleeding and moaning. I had heard a shot but new that it had come from my own gun. He never even got a shot off. I was unscathed and again undeafeted. Anybody who ever tried to kill me was dead and their where over 30 who had tried and failed to kill yours truly.
Gravity is the force of nature that pulls cellestrial bodies toward one another. The cause of gravity is the enertia of a bodies movement through space and time. This happens by an object preconcievably traveling through the cosmos at an alarming rate of acceleration. The faster an object travels the more enertia it will build up and then will therefore have a greater ability to move. the more it moves the more other objects will cling to it. the way this can be proved is by taking an object and hurtling it towards another object the two objects would collide do to the enertia pulling them towards each other. Thy would not stay on their current trajectory but their paths would alter towards one another in a greater force than their initial gravitational pull. the best test to accomodate this theory would be tow baseballs flying through the air at speeds over one hundred miles an hour. The baseballs would not interject themselves with one another normally but at this speed would do so do to the balls enertia pulling them towards one another.

My Simple System
How it Works
How to Make Easy Money Online (and Offline)
This is how I make money at home (and sometimes at work) without spending much more than an hour per day engaged in this activity. This modest investment of time and effort will certainly not make you rich beyond your wildest dreams, but one can reasonably expect to be able to make a minimum of £20 ($30) per week. This might not seem a lot, but it is still over £1,000 ($1,500) per year for relatively little effort!
The aim of the system is to harvest the "low hanging fruit" from these sites with minimum effort, rather than painstakingly squeeze every last Swagbuck, Nana or other "virtual" currency out of the system – life is just too short for that!
This is a brief overview of my system which is designed to serve as a "Quick Start Guide". More detailed explanations of the individual sites and their processes can be found on the dedicated pages listed under the Cashback and Reward Site menus above.
I have active accounts at TopCashback, Quidco, Swagbucks & AppNana.
Daily Routine - Cashback Sites
There is none. I simply buy goods and services as normal and get paid cashback by participating retailers.
If there is an easier was to make money than this without buying a lottery ticket then please leave a comment below and I will excitedly check it out!
Daily Routine - Reward Sites
- Swagbucks – Internet searches, survey, videos, games, daily poll (30-40 mins)
- AppNana – Check for apps to download and test (5 mins)
- Swagbucks – Internet searches, Swagbucks TV (20-30 mins)
- Swagbucks – Bonus codes entered as and when alerted
Total time spent: 55-75 mins
In fact, I spend less time than this by multi-tasking. I tend to check my AppNana account on my iPhone whilst completing other Swagbucks tasks on my laptop. I also "play" the Swagbucks TV clips (3o seconds each) whilst watching TV or reading a book.

Limiting the display range of a 3d plot
Is there any way to limit the display range of a 3d plot, using either jmol or tachyon? (Something similar to xmax and ymax with a 2d plot.)
Is there any way to limit the display range of a 3d plot, using either jmol or tachyon? (Something similar to xmax and ymax with a 2d plot.)
I ran into this issue recently, and I ended up implicitly plotting a simple function like
sage: implicit_plot3d(x,(x,-10,10),(y,-10,10),(z,-10,10),opacity=0)+...
(where the ... were the rest of the functions I wanted to plot). This at least gave the graph a controllable scale, and then I adjusted the other functions to be within the box created by my first function.
I'm pretty sure the answer to this question is: "no". Robert Bradshaw and I implemented almost all of the 3D plotting code, and I specifically remembering not getting to this. I also just looked at the relevant source code and didn't see anything:
sage: f(x,y)=x^2+y^2
sage: G = plot3d(f, (-1,1), (-2,2))
sage: G.show??
By the way, the way this should work once it is implemented is that you'll type
sage: G.show(zmax=2)
and the plot would get cutoff at 2 instead of at 5 like it is currently shown.
I'm also not sure what the best way to implement this is. For some renderers it might easy -- just pass an option on to clip the viewing rectangle. One could also try to clip the 3d scene itself, but this could be arbitrarily hard.

Consignment store conjures up images of a small, dusty shop, filled with quasi-antiques. But, take a stroll through Middlebury Consignment at Whittemore Crossing, and that notion is utterly shattered.
"We are a full-service lifestyle center," owner Dean Yimoyines said of the 20,000-square-foot, four-floor building, minutes off I-84. "I don't think there's another one like this in the country."
The unique quality lies in the mix of merchandise in this ever-evolving space, and extends to cooking classes, an upscale restaurant, a design area with custom window treatments, wallpaper, upholstery and bedding and a wide variety of furniture with some new pieces, others true heirlooms. "Our slogan is, 'Come spend the day,' " says Yimoyines, smiling as he extends an invitation that doesn't disappoint.
Middlebury Consignment began as an old building bought for storage by Yimoyines, an ophthalmologist and owner of several OptiCare Eye Health Centers throughout the state. Then his wife, Linda, suggested a consignment store. They decided to give it a shot in October 2009 and it clicked with the community.
"It was clear that Linda was correct. People started to bring furniture in," says Yimoyines, still involved in his medical business but no longer seeing patients. Soon, visitors began asking questions and making suggestions.
A local cabinetmaker asked if he could use some space to show off his work. "While the kitchen was being built, customers said, 'Are you going to give cooking classes?' " remembers Yimoyines, surprised yet intrigued by the thought. In 2010, he hired a chef. Now, popular classes take place in the state-of-the-art kitchen, also home to a restaurant that serves lunch daily.
"We're known for our onion soup," says Yimoyines, pointing out selections, ranging from quiche, salads and Irish-style corn beef. "We try to mix up the menu with different specials everyday."
Folks sit in a sunny side room, at tables made from chestnut beams taken out of the original post-and-beam building. But, the most coveted seating, always reserved in advance, is at a crowded counter, in the center of the busy kitchen, with prime views of the cooks, hard at work.
Soon, Yimoyines was pouring resources into a massive renovation, focusing on quality. "It's my medical background. In surgery, there's one way to do things. The right way. You don't cut corners," he says, noting this attention to detail sets Middlebury Consignment apart. "I thought people would notice and I was right."
This habit of "listening to the customer" also guided decisions including adding glassware from Simon Pearce, unique jewelry, custom-made tables, Hunter Douglas window treatments, Juliska china and colorful creations from unique artist MacKenzie-Childs. They even created a candy corner, featuring Swiss chocolates and a variety of fudge. Furniture selection changed, too.
"People would say, 'I love this piece but I need a table and you don't have the style table I need,' " says Yimoyines, who started carrying newly built furniture, offering customers the chance to furnish a room in eclectic style. "What people can do here is buy new items and mix them with unusual pieces."
Shoppers find accents such as art and lamps, mostly consigned, along with treasures ranging in price from $5 to $50,000. Sellers submit photos of items by email and 85 percent of the pieces are rejected. The store offers "good deals on the cream of the crop," many pieces hailing from estates in Fairfield County and Long Island. "These chairs are hand-carved, black walnut, from 1825, beautifully reupholstered. They're actually comfortable. They're one-of-a-kind. They came from a $14 million dollar house," says Yimoyines, Dean, pointing out exquisite seats, $11,500 for the pair. "When you look at consigned furniture, you're going to pay 25 to 50 percent of what someone paid for new and we don't take things that don't look new."
Starting this sort of business in a quaint town of 7,000 people was a risk. But Middlebury is centrally located, about an hour drive from anywhere in Connecticut and 75 miles from Manhattan. After an intense marketing campaign, efforts are paying off.
"Candidly, our long-term plan is to be a resource for designers, for people from a broad area," says Yimoyines, a new grandfather who now works with both of his sons. Daughter-in-law Rachel is the marketing director, organizing on-site events, including showers and retirement parties, along with charitable fundraisers. She routinely brings her toddler to the shop, giving the business a warm, family atmosphere.
Come springtime, the outdoor courtyard will be filled with garden statues and wicker furniture, surrounded by decorative waterfalls and flowers. The Yimoyineses are also putting finishing touches on the nearby annex warehouse, a 32,000-square-foot building, the former Golden Age of Trucking Museum. Additional finds, such as bathroom vanities, British antiques, and a bar from an Irish pub, fill this lofty space.
"It's nonstop here, seven days a week," says Linda. "It's obviously something to be proud of. The way it's taken off is fantastic."
Dean, her husband of 40 years, is steadfastly committed to staying in touch with the industry, clearly enamored by the artistry that fills this massive getaway, a vision turned reality. "We try to have this be a fun experience for people."

It wasn't weather this time around but a technical problem that will be delaying today's scheduled launch of the shuttle Endeavour until at least Monday. An estimated 700,000 visitors were due to watch the launch at Kennedy Space Center in Florida Friday at 3:47 p.m. EST.
According to a tweet from NASA, the delay is due to an issue with "Auxiliary Power Unit 1 heaters," the shuttle's onboard heaters. NASA's shuttle launch director Mike Leinbach said that the launch will be delayed until no earlier than 2:33 p.m. EDT on Monday. Engineers need that time to troubleshoot the issue that delayed today's launch.
NASA said that it discovered a failure in one of the two heater circuits. The heaters are rather important–they prevent the on-board hydrazine from freezing. Engineers think the problem might have something to do with a switchbox located in the rear end of the Endeavour. It also might be an electrical short in the wires associated with the switchbox. There will be a minimum 72-hour turnaround time to fix this problem. (If you were wondering, hyrdazine is used by shuttles as a propellent to move thrusters.)
Cmdr. Mark Kelly will be leading the Endeavour's launch. Kelly is married to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords who was injured in January's mass shooting in Tucson, Arizona. President Barack Obama along with his wife and daughters were also planning to attend the launch, which would be the first time in NASA history that the current president and his family did so.
A press conference is scheduled for 4 p.m. today to discuss today's scrub and the resulting plan.

Summer Residency: Kristin Gaudio Endlsey
~ artist in residence ~
The Latela Art Gallery, is pleased to announce the selection of internationally acclaimed artist Kristin Gaudio Endsley for its 2017 Summer Residency Program, a development initiative that foregrounds the gallery's commitment to bridging fine arts and local community, with the focus of creating positive energy in spaces.
Kristin is an extensive traveler who has journeyed around the world polishing her eye and trademark ability to create visual textures with a rich, adventurous color palette and expressive techniques. Her geometric paintings display the idea of time as means of achieving a chimerical sense of control; at the same time, she pours upon intuition and trust in the senses with her reflective expressionistic paintings, as if letting go and confiding in her own rhythmic and balanced instincts. Harmony is a paramount value for both the artist's and the gallery's missions.
In her year-long exploration of ceramics, Kristin merged her artistic style and the porcelain's delicate virtues into functional pieces that aim to fill homes and spaces with meaning. She has shown her abstract paintings and ceramics consistently since 2011, both in the UK and the US. Kristin was one of one-hundred emerging artists to showcase at The Other Art Fair. Her works have also been published in British Vogue and The Washingtonian, and she's had exhibitions in West Elm London and DC, Kit and Ace Georgetown, and most recently she was featured in One Kings Lane.
Kristin's goal as an artist is to fill homes with original art, which is why she happily completes works in all sizes and price ranges. To inquire about custom art commissions, please email firstname.lastname@example.com.

We are asking for $10,000 to host a life-saving AFK Room at PAX West, 2017.
Crowds, schedules, the immediacy of once-a-year events and other stressors common at conventions and expos can be triggers for many emotional issues, especially anxiety and depression. People dealing with mental health issues (and even many who aren't) rely on the Take This AFK Rooms for taking a break and escaping the bustle of a crowded con. If Take This can't reach its funding goal to provide these AFK Rooms, most of the attendees, exhibitors, and staff who rely on these rooms will be left to fend for themselves.
More than a quiet room, the Take This AFK Room is a calming space for people who need it, staffed with volunteers and clinicians who can answer questions and offer support for people who are stressed out. Some visitors simply need a break from the excitement and stimulation of a large event. Others seek conversation about mental health related issues. Still others check in to support us and our mission. We are happy to meet you all.
Since Spring 2014, Take This has hosted AFK Rooms at every North American PAX event, with hundreds of visitors per day. Starting in 2015, the AFK Room has been available at every PAX worldwide, and we've brought it to many other events as well.
The Impact
Over 2,000 people just in 2016 visited AFK Rooms at conventions worldwide. And many attendees tell us they are more likely to attend a con if it has an AFK Room.
Here is what some of our visitors have to say about their experiences in the AFK Rooms:
"I love it... I wish I knew about it earlier."
"AFK room is a godsend."
"It was such a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of PAX. The staff were extremely friendly and very easy to talk to."
"For me, I go into conventions knowing I'll get anxious with the amount of people and flow of things. It's great that this place is available. My boyfriend almost had an anxiety attack from it all but we were able to regain our calm rather quickly in this space. "
"As someone dealing with Sensory Integration Disorder/Sensory Processing Disorder, just knowing there is a quiet and accepting place in the convention center gives me much more freedom and comfort in how far I can push myself in what would otherwise be a pretty hostile (but fun and important to me) environment. Thank you so much."
Where the Money Goes
Take This is a small organization, and we run a tight ship. That having been said, running a traveling mental health educational and awareness-raising clinic year-round, across the globe is an expensive proposition.
We're asking for enough money to fund an AFK Room at all of the shows we attended last year (roughly $10k each), and if we raise $150,000 we can add up to four news shows!.
That covers establishing an AFK Room at the 7 major conventions we attend every year, plus bringing on up to five additional conventions within the next year.
Some of the major conventions where we manage an AFK Room are able to reimburse Take This for our costs (airfare, hotels, feeding people, licensed mental health workers, printing, coloring books, and other materials), but most of them aren't able to do so. And many of the smaller, less well-endowed conventions actually require more of our time and resources. So expanding the AFK Program to new conventions gets real expensive real fast.
Here's a quick breakdown of what it takes to run a Take This AFK Room:
- Assessment: Before even starting to establish an AFK Room, Take This sends an Assessment Team to visit the convention and meet its organizers. There are many factors which might make a convention incompatible with the Take This mission, and this assessment period is vital to ensuring that our volunteers and visitors will get the care and protection they need. The Take This team then conducts a thorough analysis of a given convention, how an AFK Room will benefit the convention's attendees, and how the Take This team can work with that convention's staff to make the show more welcoming to attendees with mental health issues.
- Recruitment: This step is the hardest. For every city where Take This hosts an AFK Room, we must establish a brand new network of like-minded clinicians and begin recruiting and training for staffing the AFK Room. Our AFK Room is fully staffed with mental health care workers, many of them licensed to practice in their particular state. Take This will often recruit a clinical coordinator, someone who is a veteran care worker in their area who can help recruit like-minded clinicians. We then thoroughly vet each care worker to ensure they are compatible with our mission and our gamer community, then conduct a series of training sessions to prepare them for staffing the AFK Room. Many of our first-time clinicians have never been to a gaming convention, and we must prepare them not only for the tasks they will be required to perform for us, but in some cases the disorientating cultural shock of immersing themselves in a convention for the first time.
- Consulting: One of the lesser-known aspects of the AFK Program is our work with convention staffs in training them how to provide basic attention to attendees, exhibitors, and fellow staff members dealing with mental health issues. This training was at one time optional, but has since become mandatory (at our convention partners' requests) at every convention where Take This manages an AFK Room. This training session provides not only basic mental health awareness, but simple and effective techniques and tools for helping everyone have a better experience at a convention.
- Set-up: The weeks prior to a convention, the Take This team gathers its training materials, AFK Room amenities (like coloring books, stress squeezers, facial tissue, etc.), volunteer t-shirts, radios, gaff tape, sharpies, and more, loads up "the Big Box" and ships out to the city where we are working. The Take This team is located all over the country — and so are our materials. Transport (for both people and things) is one of our biggest costs. We must then establish a livable space for our team and volunteers for the week of an event. Our "hard costs" for running an AFK Room (airplane tickets, hotel rooms, clinician compensation, equipment, etc.) average at around $10,000 per show, and in some cases even more. To compensate and feed our Take This staff members during the week spent working and living away from their families adds roughly $5,000 per show.
Which means that to accommodate just the seven events already on our recurring AFK schedule costs Take This over $100,000 per year. And most of those costs are not reimbursed by our partner conventions.
To add additional conventions to the AFK Program requires months of prep work and unavoidable start-up costs, bringing the total for a first-time AFK Room closer to $20,000.
Meeting our campaign goal will allow Take This to attend PAX West, 2017. And if we are able to unlock stretch goals, we can go even further.
What You Get
Our perks for this campaign are stellar. A combination of Take This merch and offerings form our many awesome partners.
Sticker: This is our emblem of hope! Place it anywhere you need a reminder you are not alone.
Psychomancer Pin: The Psychomancer is based on a character created by our friend Kay Fedewa for the Habitica app. It is our protector, and mascot for the AFK Room. This pin was originally designed for PAX Aus 2016 and is a collectible Pinny Arcade pin.
Plush: The Psychomancer! In plush! Hug it, squeeze it, let it bestow upon you the blessing of hope.
Tote Bag: Emblazoned with the Take This logo, the humble tote bag can do all kinds of things — but mostly it will carry your stuff. If you pledge at the Take Everything tier, it will come filled all of your Take This swag, making it far better than the average tote bag.
Exclusive Wyrmwood Hope Shield: The "Shield of Tranquility" was designed by our friends at Wyrmwood Gaming as an exclusive, limited-edition reward specifically for this fundraiser. You cannot get this anywhere else. Made of beautiful Ambrosia Maple and inlaid with soothing Turquoise, the Shield of Tranquility is suitable for carrying in your pocket as a reminder you are not alone, or for giving as a gift to anyone you feel might need hope or tranquility.
New Pinny Arcade Pin: Designed by the geniuses at Penny Arcade, this pin will be available for sale at a future PAX event, but can be yours for donating to this fundraiser. This is a preview of the original art by Mike Krahulik - the final pin design will be revealed soon. This is a collectible Pinny Arcade pin!
Stretch Goals!
It costs around $10k to run a Take This AFK Room. Each year we run 6-8 AFK Rooms around the world, and have plans to expand by at least 4 shows in 2017 alone.
With your support, we can ensure there's an AFK Room everywhere there needs to be.
UPDATE (April 5, 2017): We've decided to share our full stretch goal image because Nissa did such a good job with it! You can see the full scope of our ambition for the AFK Room program, and how far we still have left to go to expand to just six new shows this year. We will keep raising funds even after this campaign, but there's no comparison to the excitement and platform of a Kickstarter. If you have anything to spare, we could sure use your help now!
Other Ways You Can Help
Use Kickstarter's share tools to help spread the word!
AFK Room sponsorships are available! Starting at $15,000 for Single-Show, Global (all shows) or Global Exclusive (exclusive sponsor for all shows),every AFK Room hosted by Take This will bear signage with your name, brand and message. You will be making a major dent in our operating costs, and your generosity will be seen by the thousands of people who visit our AFK Rooms each year. Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com
For more about the Take This AFK Room, or emotional first aid certification, please contact: email@example.com.

You can also volunteer to help out even if you're not a clinician! Please fill out our volunteer form here: http://www.takethis.org/volunteer/
Ask folks to get the word out and make some noise about your campaign. Remind them to use the Kickstarter share tools!
Risks and challenges
If we raise the funds, we will host the room. We have run AFK Rooms at conventions worldwide, and the initial campaign amount is for an AFK Room at a show we've been to many times. There is zero chance we will fail to deliver on the campaign project, if funded.
Our biggest challenge is to fully-fund the AFK Program for all of our planned 2017 shows. Take This partnered with eight shows around the world in 2016, and committed to expanding our program to help another four shows in 2017.
To fully fund the program as planned for the remainder of 2017, we will need to raise at least $150,000. If we raise less than that, we will not be able to add the four planned new shows. If we raise less than $60,000, we might have to skip some of the shows we've helped for years.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
Funding period

Piazza della Signoria is a square named for the Signoria Palace. It houses several different buildings, such as Palazzo Vecchio, Loggia dei Lanzi, Tribunale delle Mercanzia, and Palazzo Uguccioni. It is also home to many sculptures, including a copy of Michelangelo's David. It is and has been considered the political hub of Florence since the 14th century.
Hotels near Piazza della Signoria are plentiful, and many of them are extremely inexpensive. Stay at Residenza della Signoria, Hotel Calzaiuoli, Hotel Olimpia, Cimatori, or Piazza della Signoria Bed and Breakfast.
The Uffizi neighborhood is quite small and doesn't have as many hotels as other parts of the city, but it is a perfect location if you want to get out and explore everything within Florence. It's near the Arno River, so you can easily take a romantic stroll at dusk along the river. Cross the bridge and you'll discover amazing gardens and the Palazzo Pitti. Head north and you'll find museums and cathedrals, such as the Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore.
The Piazza della Signoria houses many different buildings; therefore, if you want to visit them all, make sure to plan your trip accordingly so you don't end up missing out on something because it's closed.

Congrats!! You've officially survived the Craigslist hunt of your nightmares and found the Renter's Paradise that you dreamed of!!! It has all of the 'majors' – a dishwasher (um, WHAT!?), those to-die-for built-ins, and the right number of bedrooms with proper adult-sized-ish closets. Soon after you sign your lease, you move in and discover ALL OF THOSE annoying details that actually grind your gears every single day!! Hark – I come bearing good news!
Most people don't realize that you don't have to live with everything that you hate about your rental. I'm here to share a few of my favorite tricks & quick fixes that will make all of your renter's nightmares evaporate into thin air – kiiiinda like last week's stash of Halloween candy. OOPS.
The first installment in my new 'Renter's Woes' series involves an easy makeover for wooden stairs – correction: REALLY-REALLY-UGLY wooden stairs, like mine. When we moved into our Loft, I sat around for months hating every single trip upstairs. Oh trust me, I almost broke down and painted those suckers on multiple occasions. If you live in a renter's market like mine, though, you're probably not willing to forfeit that absurd security deposit. Thankfully, I recently discovered an amazing and truly magical product and I decided to use it to solve my Heinous Staircase Dilemma.
See what I mean? All that awful wooden-chip subfloor nonsense is just too much. The magical product that I discovered is Hygge & West's Removable Wallcovering Tiles. Hey Renter's, your keyword here is re-move-able....MAGIC! You can slap these babies on your eyesore of a staircase in a few easy steps, and easily take 'em off before you move out. I'm about to show you how...
Step 1: You're Really Gonna Need A Template. Nobody wants to sit there and hand-measure wallcovering for each and every riser. A standard template, cut to the size of your riser, will make all of this a lot easier. Tip: the riser is the 'front part' of the stair and will typically be around 7" high x 30-36" wide, but I'd pull an exact measurement using a tape measure.
- Measure your stair riser. I guarantee that there will be one or two stubborn risers that are a little off in size. That's okay – we'll fix it later.
- Grab a piece of cardboard. I used the hardback of a large-scale drawing pad. Shoot for a denser material – it'll make things easier when we get to the cutting process.
- Cut the cardboard to the size of your riser. Depending on the width of your stairs and the size of the wallcovering tile you're using, you might need two pieces of wallcovering per riser. This was the case for my stairs, so my template was actually cut to fit 1/2 of my riser.
Step 2: Trace & Cut Your Wallcovering
- Place the template over the wallcovering tile, and trace a piece for each riser.
- Remember, if you're using two pieces of wallcovering per riser, I'd recommend matching the pattern in the center. It can get a little tricky when you start cutting, but just pace yourself and lay the pieces out on the floor.
- Use a cutting mat and an x-acto blade, and carefully cut your wallcovering along the lines that you've drawn. This is the part where I'd be EXTRA careful. These wallcovering tiles aren't cheap, and you really don't want to mess this up.
Step 3: Get Ready For Install
- To keep things organized, I laid out each piece before installing. My wallcovering style has a pretty intricate pattern match, and I wanted to be sure I didn't mix up the pieces.
Step 4: Peel And Stick. BE PATIENT. Here comes the frustrating part.
- I installed my pieces starting from the bottom riser and worked my way up the staircase.
- Tip: most removable tiles are multi-use. This means that if you mess up, just gently pull the piece off and re-apply. I would try not to do this multiple times, but it's going to be fine if you accidently stick something crooked the first time.
- Be sure to apply extra pressure to the corners and work out any bubbles (there won't be many).
Step 5: Trim As Needed
- Remember that pesky riser that I mentioned? The one that is annoyingly 1/2" shorter than the rest? Keep a pair of scissors handy and trim manually when you get to it.
Step 6: Take A Step Back And ENJOY!
What do you think?! It makes a big difference, huh? In my own life, this is definitely one of those drab-to-fab Cinderella stories that I fully intend to recount to our grandchildren. Enjoy!
*All wallcovering was generously provided by Hygge & West.

Blogging Challenge Day 7! Over one third of the way through. Today's topic is how my blog got its name. This one will be short and sweet, but look for more posts soon.
I batted around a number of ideas in my head, none of them good at all, until I put a call out on twitter. I believe it was a guildmate, Walks, who suggested going with a rogue ability. I got a few responses along those lines, but one that jumped out at me was from Kurn, over at Kurn's Corner. Her suggestion was Tikari's Tricks of the Trade. I liked it. Not only did it include a rogue ability, but it is a key ability (use on c/d!), and the alliteration is amazing. It also relates to one of the motivations for my blog: to share tips I've picked up while raiding as a rogue. So I ran with it, and here we are!

Confession time. I'm in love with Ben Rafter from TV's "Packed To The Rafters". I could wax lyrical about all the reasons and fill a whole post but I won't.
Anyway, Ben's alter ego is actor Hugh Sheridan. He has become very popular through "Packed To The Rafters", one of the highest rating shows on Australian TV. What a lot of people don't know is that Hugh is a talented singer and has been singing for years.
He has just released his debut single "Just Can't Throw Us Away" with an album due out by the end of the year and it's rather good. Unfortunately, it has not been picked up by radio and in the absence of a video clip, it may disappear. In fact, there doesn't seem to be any promotion at all apart from one understandably nervous TV appearance and a token website. So do Hugh a favour and nip off to iTunes right now! Less than two bucks – how can you go wrong?
Here is the song, husky voice and all. I'm a sucker for husky voices. 😉

Even if you have mentally planned the event for years, weddings are stressful. To put it mildly, there is a big chance things will not go the way you planned. Between organizing the catering, managing your in-laws and making sure your hubby-to-be knows what to do, those butterflies you feel in your stomach may just turn into full blown hives due to wedding stress. Your wedding is going to be a wonderful, beautiful experience but the stress that is inherent from the time you said 'yes' to the time you say 'I do' is almost enough to cause a woman to swear of family, flowers and fondant forever!
Before eloping in your wedding jeans, you may want to take a moment and think about the stress that every planned event comes with and how you can manage this effectively. After all, every wedding even is composed of a million tiny details that induce stress. Through all the cantankerous caterers and florists, it is easy to forget what is truly important and this is the love you and your fiance have for each other.
Taking this course which causes you to feel confident, relaxed and in control regardless of what is happening around you, so it's a great option to check out before your big day. Let's take a look at some more tips to help you deal with wedding stress.
Issues with Your Friends and Family
It is a tough task to create a wedding day from scratch. Attempting to juggle staying within budget, ensuring you look amazing, keeping family and friends happy and creating a day to remember is almost a guarantee to feel stressed out enough for the entire year.
At one point or another, the most happily engaged couples are ready to pull out their hair. Between the expectations that other people have, time and money issues that weddings entail, it is safe to say that wedding stress is more the norm than the exception. Planning a wedding can be stressful and all the joy and spirit of being a bride or groom can be zapped out due to trying to please everybody. One thing about bridal stress is that unlike regular stress, this one is temporary and yet is related to emotional challenges and deep issues within the family. Stress from a wedding can be triggered instantly by issues that are practical with family dynamics exacerbating everything. Often, there are challenges to resolve and decisions to make at every turn of that path to finally saying your vows.
This makes it clear why many ladies go through bridal blues. Here is a course about attaining less stress that you can put into practice each day as part of your routine. This course is for people who feel like they have no time to spare and could balance out the stress of planning your wedding and help you remain focused.
Don't Turn Into Bridezilla
Your wedding is supposed to be the most joyful time of your life. Remember that Bridezillas are made, not born. No matter how happy this time is supposed to be, planning weddings are like working another job after hours. You will need to carve out time to tend to the multitude of small details and squeeze this into your workday as you manage an array of tricky wedding dynamics such as your groom, the family demands and anxieties and vendors. It cannot be denied that some brides have demanding personalities but most are simply nice persons sucked into the wedding planning vortex of stress. They have become overwhelmed by the expectations, pressures and stress of the people that surround her at this time.
To protect yourself from turning into Bridezilla, make sure that as part of the process of planning your wedding, you include a time to chill out and include self-nurturing and stress management. When you feel that there is a build-up of stress at some point, do something not related to the wedding such as writing in a journal, going for a manicure, getting a massage, catching a move, going for a walk and generally taking some time out. After all, if you want love, honor and getting cherished by someone else, you will need to do this for yourself first!
Keeping Your Emotions Under Control
A lot of emotions are stirred up by marriages. In itself the process sets forth a period of change and growth that can be very nerve-wracking and confusing. Once you make the decision to get married, this begins the process of preparing for the wedding itself. This includes unresolved emotions about family and parents, past relationships and thoughts about the person you decided to spend the rest of your life with. This does not mean you should cancel the wedding. Rather, be prepared for these issues to come to the surface. Remind yourself that along with all the outer preparations, inner work is called for as well. You might want to keep yourself in-control of things and productive by taking this course which causes you to feel confident, relaxed and in control regardless of what is happening around you.
To deal with this, you can welcome rather than reject the awareness that you are about to embark on a journey of transition from one of life's aspects to another. You can address and honor your fears and emotions that come up. Pay attention to any issue that might require counseling or support and trust that these are natural. It is important to anticipate your emotions and at this time, to remain honest with yourself. It is not a good idea to sweep these issues under the carpet at this important point of your life.
Focus On The Love
Planning a wedding can turn into a crisis. A bride can become mired in the demands and details as there is just so much focus on the external experiences. As a matter of fact this could even cause a bride to forget the reasons she was getting married to begin with. When she begins feeling that going through her dream wedding plans means going to war with almost everyone involved including the groom, friends, her family and parents, she becomes reactive and hostile. What has started as an experience filled with joy has turned into a war zone, a battle for having the wedding of her dreams. This is extremely stressful not to mention exhausting. It can turn even the sweetest tempered persons cranky and mean.
When this happens, it is a good idea to remember that a wedding's true meaning is to bring a couple together in a sacred union. The party is meant for celebrating, not something that is supposed to discourage you as you plan it. When a couple who is in love step up literally to make a deep commitment to each other in holy matrimony, they have opportunities to unit not just their families, lives and hearts but also to unite their very souls. In the ceremony, it is not just the couple that benefits. Anyone who attends a wedding can be inspired and empowered by the love within the room. Focus and remember that the love between you is the objective.
Other People
When it comes to your wedding, everyone will have something to say. When you have the feeling that you simply can't win, you are not alone. No matter what age you happen to be or who you are, each person you come across will have something to say about your wedding. You might be showered with gifts and congratulations but simultaneously you will be bombarded with negative vibes, wedding horror stories and unsolicited advice from relatives that may be imposing on you without realizing it and friends that mean well. There is a tendency that people have to see your wedding as an opportunity to get their own needs fulfilled. Don't be surprised that in every which way, family dynamics will erupt due to the fact that as your clan makes preparations of gathering they begin acting out what it is all about for themselves. These could involve classic issues such as your mother wanting you to have the wedding she never had and your best friend or sister wishing that it was her and not you who was getting married. Another issue might be that your groom might not stand up to his relatives. The experience of your wedding may even be fraught of more current challenges such as questions of faith mixing, planning an nontraditional affair or opting for a wedding that does not involve religion.
To cope with these classic issues, a bride needs to be clear about the wedding she sincerely wants for herself. Set clear boundaries that no one can pierce through with attitudes or words and make strong attempts to remain centered at all times. If this does not work, you might want to consider the reality that a marriage is for the both of you but weddings do tend to be for other people. Get some help with this blog post about creating a wedding reception checklist flawlessly on the greatest day of your life.
Remember Your Own Happiness
Remember that the joy you feel in life does not depend solely on your wedding. It really does not. Some brides feel that in order to have the perfect life and the perfect wedding, they need to have a perfect marriage. They give too much power to the day of the wedding itself. They begin treating the day of their wedding as something to be served and worshiped. There is a fear underlying that if something goes awry on the actual wedding day, it is a sign that will break or make the marriage. Many cultures place too much emphasis on having a dream wedding and not enough on having a wonderful marriage, including ours. It is okay to be obsessed temporarily and to yearn for the wedding of your dreams. At some point, every bride does feel that. However, you need to keep your focus on what is truly significant on this day.
Take a step back and think about the reality that it is not the day itself that is important. Rather, it is that you marched down the wedding aisle into the arms of the person you plan to build your life with. This is the person that you love and you will have a lifetime of memory-making you can do throughout the years. While important, the day of your wedding is just one of the many memories and experiences you will go through together. If this article helped you, here is a course you may want to take about taking 3-minute breaks each day to release stress and to focus as you visualize your goals.

peanut butters of the world: the sarajevo edition
I think I am swiftly becoming more qualified to write about toots of the world (hands down, Holland has the weirdest. They look normal until you open the lid to find a mysterious platform about half way up the bowl. Its all a bit too "in your face" for my toilet tastes) than I am peanut butters. The only foods readily available in Europe are pizza, pasta, ice-cream, and beer and beer and also beer. Sounds alright to everyone who doesn't have a digestive system like a defective fire hose. But, all of those foods grant me the opportunity to get my PhD with honours in plumbing. For weeks, nay months, we have been trekking around Europe, with me wailing "FRESH food, J-man, FRESH food". Occasionally I come across a fly-blown banana from Equador, but otherwise it's been dairy, wheat and death carbs the whole time. Bloating has gotten so bad, I've been asked three times if I am pregnant and I swear a lady on a bus in Dubrovnik gave up her seat for me after looking at my belly.
The good news is that our surprise mini-break to Bosnia has provided some relief. The food is rich, yes, but the kebabs are overflowing with salad – tomato! hello lover – and their national dishes have been a vacation for my intestines. Even if the most famous dish here, ćevapi, looks like this:
And then there's the coffee. Oh my, my, the coffee. I'm not one of those coffee wankers, hells I practically lick Nescafe instant out of the jar, but I don't think I can ever turn back after having Bosnian coffee. This is not me posing by the way. It's me casually scoping out the nearest WC.
And Bosnia, sweet, sweet Bosnia. Unlike its neighbours, it stocks peanut butter. Crunchy peanut butter. My life blood.
On a blog I mostly dedicate to my bowels, public humiliations and love of breakfast spreads, I didn't feel like I could even attempt to tell you about how much I have loved Sarajevo. It is a wonderful city, with incredibly friendly people, a buzzing atmosphere, amazing cuisine and a content, easygoing vibe. All of this just over a decade since it was completely surrounded and devastated by regular bombings and brutal shootings. I have been moved and changed by meeting people who lived through that time. The locals are passionate about people discovering their city, and the rest of Bosnia, not because of its bloody history but because of its inherent beauty and everything it has to offer. A destination that will stay with me.

This is an appeal case against a Malaysian High Court decision pertaining to copyright infringement involving Lee Chye Yen & Lee Boon Hui and EoneNet. Com Sdn. Bhd.
EoneNet. Com Sdn. Bhd. (hereinafter referred to as "the Respondent") is one of the pioneers in Internet Marketing Seminar and Internet Marketing Coaching in Malaysia and Hong Kong and was also an expert in search engine optimization.
Lee Chye Yen & Lee Boon Hui (hereinafter referred to as "the Appellants") are partners of a business known as Ebiz Solution Network.
The Chief Operating Officer of the Respondent, Fione Tan, and her partner, Harrance Lau Hock Chung, are co-authors for a large number of materials for their Internet marketing seminars and coaching programs in the course of their employment with the Respondent. The Respondent claimed that it owns rights over all creations by EoneNet. Com Sdn. Bhd. and had declared its ownership on all course documents, DVDs, printed materials, audio, video and all information related to the company.
In September 2011, the Respondent came across an advertisement published by the Appellants in a local Chinese daily offering Internet marketing seminars and coaching with similar modules and materials as that being used by Respondent. Further, the Appellants claimed that the Appellants were former students of its Internet seminars and coaching course back in 2010. The Respondent claimed that the Appellants have infringed its copyright works having regard to the teaching and course materials belonging to the Respondent.
The Appellants counter-claimed the Respondent's claim by arguing on the basis that the claimed copyrighted works are not original and are not capable of being protected under the Copyright Act 1987 (the Act).
The Judge at the High Court ruled in favour of the Respondent and allowed the Respondent's claim that it was the rightful owner of the copyright works and that the Appellants had carried out an act of infringement.
The Appellants then went on to file an appeal to the Court of Appeal.
During the hearing at the Court of Appeal, the Appellants argued that the Respondent had failed to prove that EoneNet. Com Sdn Bhd. is the rightful owner of the copyrighted works, hence, not capable to be protected under the Act. Furthermore, the Appellant submitted that these works are obtainable in websites and books which are accessible to the public.
The Appellants also argued that the statutory declaration which the Respondent relied on to prove that they are the rightful owner of the copyright works was defective and that the exhibits were not produced in court during the hearing. Also, the Appellants submitted that the certified true copy of the copyright works was not annexed to the statutory declaration.
According to Section 42 of the Act, the admission of the statutory declaration as evidence is a great advantage for a proprietor to establish his claim over ownership of the copyright in question by establishing facts that at the time specified therein, copyright subsisted in such work and that the person named therein is the owner of the copyright.
However, to rely on this section as grounds of argument, the proprietor must or shall comply with all the necessary requirements under the said section, namely:
The Court of Appeal found that the Respondent had failed to provide a statutory declaration claiming ownership of copyright accompanied by a certified true copy of the copyright works and that the statutory declaration was not signed before a Commissioner of Oaths.
Therefore, the Court of Appeal held that the statutory declaration cannot be accepted and held that the High Court had made a mistake in admitting the statutory declaration tendered by the Respondent, therefore, allowing the Respondent's claim against the Appellants.

Hope yet for Our Ukraine in VR elections
NSNU have not started delivering any telling political blows against PR who, as Scott has said, are a seriously target-rich environment. However, unlike BYuT, they cannot attack them on the gas front, even though the seriously shady RosUkrEnergo was established by former President Kuchma, PR leader Yanukovych, and Yuriy Boyko [a former head of Naftogaz] on 29th July 2004, shortly after a meeting between Putin and Kuchma. [Some observers have suggested that it was set up to provide 'off-the-books' funds for Yanukovych's 2004 Presidential campaign.]
The creation of the controversional JV UkrGazEnergo was approved 31st January this year with indecent haste, by the Ukrainian State Anti-monopoly Committee, before its launch 2 days later. The Anti-monopoly Committee happens to be chaired by #29 on the PR list, Aleksei Kostusyev. He had undoubtedly checked everything out with, and had been given the 'green light' by his party leader Yanukovych, to delare the creation of the new JV 'kosher'.
UkrGazEnergo has been criticized in the strongest terms by a former vice-chair of the Anti-monopoly Committee, and former Ministers of Fuel and Energy, and will form a back-drop to the VR election campaign. There is certainly disquiet - In a non scientific straw poll , when respondents were asked to register their opinions on the new JV, 52% considered it to be a 'forced compromise', and 41% thought the JV was a trap. Only 4% said that it had a good perspective.
The gas business may well cost NSNU votes - the sooner Yekhanurov can find a 'technical problem' and stall on this, the better. Especially, as in the words of an excellent article on the Russian/Ukrainian gas war [quoted by several bloggers] in today's 'Moscow Times': "Many [commentators] say that no matter who ends up in power after the March elections, the current agreement will be redrawn."
There are reports that some kind of Orange coalition will coalesce, maybe even by the end of this week. If it does, then perhaps there will be a 'return of the prodigal son' effect too.
So hope yet..

An important point about this poll, though, is that it was sponsored by an Institute that is affiliated with the Presidential Administration, according to Ukrainsky Pravda. MIght the numbers be a bit off? :)
- LEvko said...
You're right Marie, the numbers may well be off, hence the 'health warning' at the top of my piece. An article in 'UkrPravda' posted yesterday evening http://www2.pravda.com.ua/news/2006/2/7/38473.htm
quotes an 'InMind' OP which has PR at 37.1% NU Block at 19.1% and BYuT at 13.3%
Have you seen any poll-of-polls stats recently?
When an experienced old leader of a British political party was asked by a young prime minister what should he worry about the most and what was the biggest threat to him remaining in power, the grandee replied: "Events dear boy, events.."
During election campaigns events sometimes also happen and change voting patterns.

Hi 🙂
My name is Beth and I'm a 20-year-old Journalism student from Middlesbrough studying at Teesside University!
I created my blog with the sole intention for it to be all about beauty (hence the name) but it has grew into more than that. I now like to think of Steal The Beauty as being not just a beauty blog, but a lifestyle blog too, where I am not just restricted to makeup posts but can write about just about anything I fancy, and (hopefully) the people who read my blog enjoy it!
However, I do still find writing about my love of make-up to be one of the things I enjoy the most about blogging, but I also enjoy writing about my travel adventures, my attempts at making my hair look nice (haha), the odd fashion post, tags and a few rambly ones where I talk about just about anything. I mean, if you can't vent on your own blog where can you vent??!
I aim to upload twice a week but balancing blogging with a degree and a part-time job can be a little demanding so on the odd week there'll only be one post. But I never go more than a week without posting and you never know, some weeks you might get three! 😀
Quick disclaimer before you have a scroll through my posts (which I really hope you do!), I am NOT a makeup artist, I'm not even that good at makeup I just love to try different products and to write about it here so don't judge my skills haha!
All photography is my own unless stated otherwise and all opinions are my own! I always mention if I have been sent a product by a brand to try and I never feature products that I wouldn't use myself.
I'm on Twitter and Instagram so please pop over and say hi as I love to connect with new people and other bloggers! I also have a new Facebook page so it would be lovely if you could give it a like as it helps a lot and I would love to do the same for you so leave your own pages in the comments! <3
For queries and collaborations please email me on: firstname.lastname@example.com and I will always reply within 24 hours!
Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy my blog!

We all love it when our horses nicker to us. The affirmation of their love and affection for us. But deep down we know it is just about the special cookies we give them on our arrival.
Thanksgiving weekend, we are all thinking about those things to be thankful for. And it seems like many around me are having more downs than ups these days, but we all can be thankful for something.
Having just moved barns, having other little bumps and quirks happening lately, I am thankful that the horses are all happy and healthy in their new homes.
The great thing about the old barn was that everything was all close and personal with the horses in the barn. Finn, in particular, would great you with a hearty nicker and continue to talk to me throughout the day. He was eager to go out to work, and then quieter for the rest of the morning. But if it sounded like you opened a cookie jar, the sugar cube box, rustled a carrot bag or muffled the apple bucket – he was right there talking to you louder and louder. And yes, I was the very bad trainer who encouraged this behaviour.
I talked to him when he started, I OFTEN gave him treats after our little conversations and so – he talks to me a lot saying something to the effect of "what kind of treat will it be, surprise me." I wish I had captured it on film!
After moving to his new house, the first day I went to visit he nickered loudly as if to say "where the heck have you been!? I came here and I haven't seen you all day everyday." Then as I left with a different horse (of course, after a short conversation that included a cookie) he SCREAMED at me every time he saw me walk across the yard. Ahhh, the love…. I think it was more like he was saying "hey, where are you going? Don't leave me here. Where are all the cookies?" So hoping to capture his chatty self, here is a little video – and yes, he clammed up! Stage fright obviously, and too bad the glare is in the camera because if you knew him you would see how expressive his eyes are. Pleading, yearning for that cookie.
Chatty Mr Finn….
Here is a video of Vinny at his new barn, in his new field. Of course the first time we let him out, he frolicked around happily. Hoping to capture it on video I had my phone ready this time – and nope, nothing. Just eating. So I am happy he is happy in his new house. Though he has yet to nicker at me in the new barn.
Vinny being boring.
Both Vinny and Finn need to go to drama class so they can be more expressive and confident in front of the camera. Happy Thanksgiving!
Alison, who is also thankful hockey season is on hold. Sorry NHL fans!

Gain root access for HTC One M8 for Verizon via WeakSauce
XDA developers Jcase and Beaups have rooted the HTC One M8 using an exploit they created called WeakSauce says XDA Developers website. The exploit comes with surprising speed so near to the HTC One M8 release.
The HTC One M8 stole the headlines last week with its March 25 launch. The One M8 looks to have a bright future in the mobile industry this year, setting the precedent for other manufacturers. As with any new device release, developers begin to scour the known data looking for ways to root the device.
XDA reports that Jcase and Beaups have done just that with the Verizon HTC One M8 version. While they don't have the physical device, they have proven that they are able to obtain root access on the software. XDA also states that WeakSauce will also work with last year's HTC M7. It didn't take long for developers to get to work on rooting the new device and accomplishing the goal.
So for those who don't know what rooting is, why is it such a big deal? Rooting allows the user to bypass security and customize the device. Many people root simply to get rid of all the carrier and manufacturer apps that get preloaded onto devices. Rooting isn't for everyone. Someone who isn't tech savvy might not want to explore this option and instead, go for a Google Play Edition device. Those who don't want Vanilla Android (stock Android) could also stick with the carriers devices that come loaded with what is often called ''Bloatware''.
XDA's news on now being able to root the HTC One M8 is a welcome surprise for those itching to root their M8 that they have preordered. While this root is only viable for the Verizon M8, it is very likely that developers are working on root options for the other carriers as well.
Do you plan on rooting your M8 when you get it? Be sure to tell us how the process worked for you.
