One night, 3 Utd Heroes
One of the country's best-known TV football pundits, Steve Claridge, Cambridge United's legendary star striker, John Taylor, and Cambridge United's Director of Football, Graham Daniels, are set to join the Roar Festival's Football Heroes panel (18th May), which kicks off a series of charity events running throughout the summer at the Quy Mill Hotel and Spa.
In a varied and lengthy career, football icon Steve Claridge has played at every single level in the English leagues in more than 1,000 games, including two spells as a star forward at Cambridge United. He was in the 'U's' team that got the club promoted to the Second Division and he scored 28 goals in just 79 appearances for the U's between 1990 and 1992. After a brief spell away, he returned later that year and scored a further 18 goals in 53 games between 1992 and 1994.
Career highlights for Steve include getting the goal that saw Leicester City promoted to the Premier League and the following season scoring the winning goal in the Football League Club Final. Steve formally retired from football 10 years ago and moved into media work mainly with the BBC on shows including Football Focus and the Football League Show.
During his illustrious career, Cambridge United star striker John Taylor made over 500 league appearances, scoring a record 108 goals for Cambridge United during his two stints with the Club in 1988 to 1992 and 1997 to 2004.
In 1988, Taylor joined a young team hungry for success and after a season on the fringes of the side, he quickly built up a partnership with Dion Dublin to forge arguably Cambridge United's most successful ever striking duo. This led to an amazing run of success for the Club that culminated in successive promotions from Division 4 to Division 2.
In his second stint with Cambridge United, Taylor's goals helped United to promotion from Division 3 in 1999 and in total he went on to score a further 40 goals for the club. After hanging up his boots, he went on to manage the Club between 2001 – 2004.
Graham Daniels (Danno) is the Director of Football at Cambridge United and has an association with the club going back over 35 years. He left his native Wales to come and play for the U's whilst still a student having previously played for Cardiff City. He went on to play for and then manage Cambridge City before a spell in charge at Histon. An accomplished broadcaster, Graham has been General Director of Christians in Sport for over 15 years. He joined the board of the U's in 2013 and has been Chair of the Cambridge United Community Trust since its formation in 2010.
The evening event, which includes a sumptuous three-course dinner prepared by Quy Mill Hotel's 2 AA Rosette kitchen, and exciting charity raffles and auctions, is set to be hosted by BBC Radio Cambridgeshire Presenter and Roar's Non-Executive Director, Chris Mann.
Speaking ahead of the dinner, Chris commented: "This event is going to be a fantastic celebration of football, especially Cambridge United, with three great characters telling their stories from a lifetime in football. Steve, John and Danno can talk about the game as former players, media pundits, and as club managers and directors. I'm looking forward to a great night of insight and stories."
Following the dinner, Chris will interview the panel of Football Heroes, allowing diners a glimpse into the inner-world of professional football, as well as first-hand accounts of their time in the industry and those inevitable insider anecdotes.
Commenting on the announcement, Tony Murdock, Director of Quy Mill Hotel and Spa, and Founder and Chairman of the Roar Festival said: "We're delighted and honoured that three of the most respected champions of football have agreed to be a part of the Football Heroes panel this year. This is one of my favourite Roar events and is a fabulous way to kick off our season of events. I'm really looking forward to an evening of superb food from our 2 AA Rosette kitchen, excellent wines, and some enlightening chat."

Haribo Gold-Bears Has A Childish Office Meeting
March 7, 2017 20 Comments
I found this ad on iSpot.tv, where it's been getting a huge amount of attention. Interestingly, I can't find a really good video of it online, so this one will have to do for now. The concept of adult action being dubbed over by children's voices isn't particularly novel (Subway did it years ago), but I can see why it's a popular spot. Like the man (played by Brian MacDougall), I think the red one is "more gooder, cause it tastes like berries." Haribo Gold-Bears are just as tasty when you're grown up, and eating a cutesy candy can make you feel like a kid again.

Suns might consider these nine coaching candidates to replace Earl Watson
All 30 NBA coaches escaped the 2016-17 season with their jobs, marking the the first time zero coaches had been fired over an entire season since 1970-71. That won't be happening again this season.
MORE: Raptors Ibaka, Spurs Aldridge go nose-to-nose, again
The Suns decided to fire head coach Earl Watson only three games into their 2017-18 campaign, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski . Associate head coach Jay Triano will likely be the interim coach following Watson's departure.
Watson's firing Monday (AEDT) came a little more than an hour after Suns point guard Eric Bledsoe sent out a cryptic tweet , saying, "I don't wanna be here." It's unclear whether Bledsoe's tweet was in response to the decision on Watson, the team's brutal start, a combination of both or something else entirely. Whatever the case may be, it's clear Phoenix has some serious problems.
The Suns dropped the first three games of the regular season by a combined 92 points, including the most lopsided season-opening loss in NBA history, a 124-76 defeat at the hands of the Trail Blazers. Those numbers only added to Watson's less-than-stellar record.
Earl Watson's final record with Phoenix: 33-85, -808 point differential (-6.85 per game)— Shane Young (@YoungNBA) October 22, 2017
What's next for the Suns? General manager Ryan McDonough has to find a replacement for Watson. Here are a few candidates who might appear on his list . . .
Steve Nash
Nash averaged 14.4 points and 9.4 assists per game over 10 seasons with the Suns, winning back-to-back MVPs in 2005 and 2006. He currently serves as a player development consultant with the Warriors, and he has quickly made strong connections with Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry. Nash is light on coaching experience (OK, very light), but he has instant credibility from his playing days and has been around a championship organization. Don't be surprised if his name pops up.
Dan Majerle
The former Suns shooting guard affectionately known as "Thunder Dan" has enjoyed early success as the head coach at Grand Canyon University in the Western Athletic Conference. Majerle took GCU as a Division II program and has treated the Antelopes like a top-25 team. GCU finished 27-7 in 2015-16 and 22-9 in 2016-17 under Majerle. He could attempt to develop the Suns like a college team (the roster features six players under the age of 22) and bring them back to relevance.
Adrian Griffin
Following nearly a decade as a player, Griffin has served as an assistant coach in Milwaukee, Chicago, Orlando and currently Oklahoma City. He has a habit of building relationships with those around him. He's a guy who has made an impact at every stop but doesn't need to take credit for individual or team success. Griffin is also a defensive-minded coach, having spent time under Tom Thibodeau with the Bulls, and that's absolutely something the Suns need to improve.
Ime Udoka
It never hurts to sit close to Gregg Popovich. Udoka has been an assistant with the Spurs since 2012 and has championship experience after capturing a ring in 2014 with the franchise. Not only does Udoka know his way around the hardwood, but he also has experience in negotiations. He became the closer for the Spurs in the summer of 2015 when he made a final pitch to free agent LaMarcus Aldridge , ultimately pushing Aldridge to sign with San Antonio.
Monty Williams
No lack of experience here. Williams was an assistant coach under Nate McMillan with the Trail Blazers from 2005-10 before becoming the head coach in New Orleans. He finished 173-221 overall with the Hornets/Pelicans, making two playoff appearances, including a first-round exit in 2015 to the eventual champion Warriors. Williams then joined the Thunder staff but left the bench in the middle of the season after the tragic death of his wife, Ingrid .
Williams was reportedly offered the Illinois job in March , but he passed because he wants to return to the NBA. This door just opened.
Sean Miller
It might be a long shot considering Miller's winning ways as head coach of the Wildcats (and the full support of Arizona's leaders amid an NCAA scandal ), but why not take a chance? Miller has produced everywhere he has gone so far, with Elite Eight appearances at Xavier and Arizona as well as a gold medal run with the USA Under-19 junior national team in 2015. Would Miller be willing to make the trip from Tuscon to Phoenix?
Jerry Stackhouse
"Stack" spent 19 seasons as a player in the NBA, and he has made a name for himself as a coach in a hurry. The 42-year-old is the head coach of the Raptors 905, the NBA G-League affiliate of the Raptors, and it's not an opportunity he takes lightly.
"Anybody that knows me knows that I've got a lot of pride and I'm confident in what I do," Stackhouse told NBA.com in February. "This is what I do. This isn't a fluke. I've been working at this thing for a while. A lot of people just see it now."
While Stackhouse is a bit behind the curve compared to other candidates, he brings undeniable energy and a desire to improve each day. He could instill more discipline for the young Suns, something the front office would surely welcome.
Mark Jackson
Of course he's here. Jackson's name will always arrive promptly after a coach has been fired. Just ask Steve Kerr what Jackson can do.
Steve Kerr on Mark Jackson: "He set the table for a lot of what's happening now. He deserves a lot credit."— Rusty Simmons (@Rusty_SFChron) January 10, 2015
During Jackson's time with the Warriors from 2011-14, he pushed the team from bottom five in defensive rating to top five in only three seasons. Kerr allowed the offense to flow more freely after Jackson left, but Kerr admitted the defensive foundation was there. If Jackson wants to step away from the broadcasting table and slide over to the bench, he should reach out to McDonough.
Brent Barry
Sticking with broadcasters, Barry could be a prime candidate if he wants to make the transition. Barry is widely respected around the NBA and understands the finer points of the game, as evidenced by his thoughtful analysis. But Barry might not want to become a coach just yet, according to a March report from ESPN's Kevin Arnovitz .
"Despite receiving nibbles by a number of NBA teams over the past couple of seasons for both coaching and managerial positions, Barry has told suitors that his current plan is to spend as much time as possible with his school-aged kids over the next few years," Arnovitz wrote. "When he's ready to jump into the league in an official capacity, word is that he favors a route that would land him first in a front office, where he can study the architecture and mechanics of an NBA franchise, not unlike Steve Kerr, who served a stint as Phoenix's general manager for three seasons.
"After that, Barry would be inclined to move to the bench."

Kazakhstan sounds alarm over dying Caspian seals
The Kazakhstan government and environmentalists Tuesday sounded the alarm over the declining numbers of endangered Caspian seals after 35 animals were found dead over the weekend.
"During the inspection on March 25... 35 dead seals were found on the sea shore" near Bautino, a port town in the southwest, the agriculture ministry said in a statement.
"The Caspian seal population has been falling lately," the statement said. "The reasons for the population drop are anthropogenic factors and changes in the environmental conditions of the seals' habitat in the Caspian Sea."
The dead mammals were all young, and officials are now looking to determine the cause of death, the agriculture ministry said.
The Caspian Sea, a body of water surrounded by Iran, Azerbaijan, Russia, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan, is the only place in the world where the Caspian seals are found.
The Caspian seal is an endangered species, whose population has declined by more than 90 percent since the 1930s, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Because the Caspian Sea is a closed ecosystem which the seals cannot leave, the population -- which declined from one million to about 110,000 now -- is especially vulnerable to habitat destruction.
In winter, the animals migrate north to the ice sheets to give birth to their young, and are threatened by poaching, killing by fishermen, and onshore and off-shore development, the IUCN says.
"There has been a sharp downward trend in the population size," Alexei Knizhnikov of WWF Russian office told AFP. "This happens every spring season, when the weakest animals die. Dozens and even hundreds have died annually over the past decade."
The species is threatened by various human activities, including drilling in the North Caspian Sea, specifically in the Kashagan oil field, he said.
"The development includes building artificial islands right in the area where the species give birth," he said.

Your very welcome. I also have spools. empty & some with thread, though just from my mother. But who knows some of her stash may have come form her Aunt victoria who taught her to sew.
My empty spools are in a glass jar. One of those that are sort of octagular & have a top that is hinged. The ones with thread - well that's a variable. Most are in a plastic box. Though mother had a pentagon sort of "thing" with open columns. I'm guessing ti's from the 1940's. There's a little knob at the top center to grasp & rotate the holder. Each space holds 2 spools. Caveat is only the very small ones of years ago fit. I was able to fill it.

I rescue old sewing stuff--it pains me to think of it being trashed, and connects me with the foremothers. Over my machine I have a printer's type tray filled with these treasures; many are old spools of thread, whose colors speak of bygone trends. My daughter's request:"When you die, can I have that?" I had a vision and began to turn my bags of stuff into Magic Sewing Wands; I have a box full and don't know where to sell them, have tried a couple of venues with little luck. They're pretty specialized items.
Spoool furniture is pretty easy to find around here (NC textile belt). I have a side table made of giant industrial spools. My guess is early 20th century; "spool-turned" is a different, 19th century style.

Senior American-studies majors bored deep into the complexities of American identity, experience and culture—often, from unexpected angles—during the recent American Studies Senior Research Symposium. The annual event highlights the most extensive research project of each student's undergraduate career.
The virtual world attracted scholarly attention during this year's symposium, as Celeste Hippolyte presented black Twitter as a cultural practice, Susannah May tackled the food-Instagram phenomenon and Hannah Glick turned a critical eye to dating in a social-network-saturated society. Rebecca Winsor, Meaghan Quirin and Sasha Reagan, meanwhile, delved into physical spaces. Winsor's research tapped into a national conversation about home ownership in America, Quirin examined the Vietnam-protest movement at Dickinson, and Reagan analyzed the cultural phenomenon of dams.
Peering into issues relating to representation, Aaron Hock asked how the television show RuPaul's Drag Race evades the politics of drag performance, and Tyler Drbal examined how comic books tackled issues of race during the Civil Rights era and beyond, using black superheroes like Amazing-Man as a vehicles for racial discourse. Fabian Hernandez studied the role of borders in the Mestizo consciousness, while Grace Morelli questioned how Italian-Americans are represented in film.
In their body- and gender-centered work, Katherine Dilworth examined the idealized, monitored body in the wake of Fitbit, Melissa Fallat interpreted the Weight Watchers-defined ideology of thinness, Heather Bonello took on diversity in consumer and celebrity culture, and Alexandra Young applied the gender binary to U.S. women's soccer stars. On the opposite side of the gendered coin, Quinn Cotter and Larry Jolon tackled shifting male identities through their analyses of midcentury Playboy consumer culture and anxiety in men's memoirs, respectively, while Johanna Fleming placed women in a traditionally male context by studying the intersections of women and power tools in popular culture.
The presentations were part of the students' senior seminar, a yearlong course that brings senior-year students in the same major together as they complete their final projects and theses. It's a greenhouse of sorts, said Glick, a place where shared ideas—and possibly the seeds of future graduate-level work—can grow.
"As we constantly edit our topics and papers, we learn exactly what the [academic-research] process is like," Glick explained.
"The constant feedback from my peers also has helped me to focus and frame my ideas and research in order to create what I hope to be an excellent capstone to my American-studies career," Drbal added.

Insulation Services and Roof cavity Cleaning: Insulation Removal a Specialty
Insulating your home properly is one of the best investments you can make. Aquilina Services provides roof insulation in Melbourne along with other services that includes roof cavity cleaning.
Aquilina Services don't provide any other service unless it has something to do with roof cavity cleaning and supplying and installing insulation. Why ? Because we want to be the leaders in providing the highest quality standards we possibly can in roof cavity cleaning and installing insulation. With the suction that our high powered vacuum machine produces we can do a lot of other services, but we chose to specialize in only one business and that's roof cavity cleaning. We specialize in cleaning entire roof cavities of any size by removing any type of dirty Insulation, Dust, Debris, Birds Nests, Possum and any rodent droppings, then re-insulate with the minimum rating of R3.5 Insulation.
While we work on your roof, we have expertise in building structures and we can provide a free inspection of your roof cavity to ascertain if you have any structural damage that may have accrued over the years. I suppose you can say how can this happen, I have seen roof bearers cut and left unsupported just to fit a skylight. This is only one example of what happens when say if a previous owner before you may have done a renovation were he wasn't qualified. This service is free of charge.
Re Government Rebate:
On the 12th February 2010 the Government discontinued the Insulation $1200 rebate scheme. It was intended that by the 1st of June 2010 the Government was to re-introduce the New Renewable Energy Bonus Scheme (REBS) but on the 22nd of April 2010 the Government announced it will not go ahead with the scheme.
Since the Government has suspended the insulation rebate program, I have had to clean up and re-insulated numerous properties that were done by dodgy installers and each one of those customers can now sleep peacefully without any concerns.
Important Notice
If you have an issue at the moment that you are concerned of the safety of your home because it has not been insulated properly, ring us immediately for a free no obligation assessment of your roof cavity. Why risk damage to your property and your personal belongings when it can be avoided.
About Us
Aquilina Services is a young fast growing successful company. I have had about 35 years experience in the building and engineering industry so when you ring us to work in your roof for a day or two you are assured you have got the right person who is in charge to do the work and has the general knowledge and understanding of what exactly is being done while installing ceiling insulation.
Most home owners are very proud of their home and we are very aware of that and we take extra precautionary measures to ensure care is taken. When you appoint us to do the work you can rest assured that the job will be done properly with minimal fuss or interruption.
In the past there was plenty of dodgy insulation installers, so make sure who you appoint to do your Insulation.
As mentioned in the website the decision of who should do your insulation installation should not be taken lightly and certainly not just because doesn't seem complicated.
Also its not necessarily required that you have to be present at your home while the work is being done.

Sensors are either binary – they report an on/off status like Motion detectors, smoke detectors or door/window sensors or they are analog. In this case they report a continuous measuring value such as temperature, humidity or light level. Sensors report their value to the central z-wave controller entity for display or other usage but they can also directly control other actuators.

There are several passages in the New Testament where we hear of the people suffering for an incomprehensibly long period of time - in fact three of them are part of the regular cycle of readings which are taken on Sunday, including the 'Man Born Blind', the 'Woman with the Hemorrhage' (38 years) and today's story of the woman made infirm by a demonic spirit for eighteen years.
What Happens When I See Chronic Suffering?
Our life gets bent over by the weight and strain of all the difficulties that we carry. We get bent over emotionally by the pressures of work and the strain of financial problems, by the worries of caring for our families, loved ones, and friends. Every day in our life we face weakness, and we must turn to Jesus for help and strength. He is always waiting for us. Although, sometimes it feels that He is not listening to our prayers, and we don't get what we want, but God knows what we need and when we need it. We just need to keep praying and trusting God.

Many bread-like products can be the hole for a toad/egg: the classic piece of toast, but also a donut, biscuit, grilled cheese, pizza slice, pancake or waffle, kouign amann, or quesadilla. These options are fun, they probably taste good—but whether they're better than the sum of their parts is debatable.
On the other hand, a bagel egg in a hole is better than eggs and bagels on their own. And this is saying a lot: I eat more eggs than anything else, and I chose my apartment in Oakland based on its proximity to a bagel shop (my last name also rhymes with bagel, which seems like an important detail).

Do you ever feel like there's someone or something in your brain that is constantly whispering advice and providing commentary on your thoughts and actions? Maybe it's the voice of General Doubt, Fear or Do I Look Fat In This? These are all original characters in my TEDx Charleston presentation that take the premise that Buddha described, that the human mind is filled with drunken, chattering monkeys. Watch how 'Mind Your Monkeys' uses puppetry and craftily worded dialog to show not only how we can easily become imprisoned by our negative thoughts but also how to free your mind and transform your fears, and lull your monkeys into a calm and peaceful state.
Click on this video to see the presentation
"The creative energy behind Kris Manning's projects is a tour de force! Her creative spark is contangious, and the collaboration that ensues result in a masterful performance and pure joy for all who experience it. I witnessed her creative process first-hand as Production Chair of TEDxCharleston, and continue to be amazed by her innovative endeavors! - Sandy Morckel, Production Chair of TEDx Charleston
It was a delight to conceptualize the presentation, write the script, compose the music, fabricate the puppets/costumes/props, create and apply the make-up and prosthetics, develop and animate the video and work with some insanely talented people to make 'Mind Your Monkeys" a reality.
You never know what you're capable of until you just put it all out there.
You never know what you're capable of until you just put it all out there.
Becky Becker, Geoffrey Cormier, Henry Riggs and Maari Soursa are the wildly talented and hysterical heart of this presentation.
Making the puppets was a kick. The final product is often a delightful surprise. Sometimes I sketch things out in advance as a kind of roadmap but often, I just go for it and see where we end up. The journey is magical and filled with adventure!

Yesterday, I was suddenly locked out of my Facebook account. I had to go through a series of security steps to regain access. Looking at pictures of friends and had to identify them by multiple choice. Really? When you show me a baby picture of someone I barely know and have me choose if they are 1 of 6 people its pretty random. Anyway, around that time I was notified by Facebook of the following:
Subject: Application Now Playing Plugin has been disabled
We're committed to providing a positive user experience on Platform while also providing developers an ecosystem in which communication channels are open and applications may grow. To ensure a positive user experience, we run routine automated screens that take user feedback and various algorithms into account and remove spammy applications.
Your application Now Playing Plugin (ID #2392944680) has been detected by our automated systems and permanently disabled. To prevent this from happening to future applications you may build, please monitor user reports and be sure to follow all outlined Developer Principles and Policies, found at http://developers.facebook.com/policy. Additionally, please keep the user experience at the forefront when developing and iterating on your application.
Though we are very confident in our system, if you think we have removed your application erroneously, you can read about our appeals process and complete a form to appeal at http://www.facebook.com/help?faq=17553. We will work quickly to evaluate your case and initiate the appeals process.
Thank you,
The Facebook Platform Team
Well, god damn. I had not received any warnings of this prior to this email. I do review my user reports. I respond to suggestions and complaints. I have about 180+ reviews on the app — and if you factor out those bad ones where people complain the plugin costs money, its generally well received.
So in the interest of finding out what I did, I filed the appeal per the instructions. Less than 24 hours later, I received this response.
Subject: Re: Disabled App Appeal
Hi Brandon,
Thanks for your inquiry. To help keep Platform policies simple while delivering great Platform experiences to users, our automated systems remove apps providing poor user experiences. Our systems use a variety of signals to assess user experience, such as user feedback on an app's communications (Stream stories, etc.) and on the app itself.
See section IV.
IV.2 : You must not pre-fill any of the fields associated with the following products, unless the user manually generated the content earlier in the workflow: Stream stories (user_message parameter for Facebook.streamPublish and FB.Connect.streamPublish, and message parameter for stream.publish), Photos (caption), Videos (description), Notes (title and content), Links (comment), and Jabber/XMPP.
IV.3 : If a user grants you a publishing permission, you must still obtain consent from the user before taking any action on the user's behalf, such as publishing content or creating an event.
We've checked out the circumstances of your app's removal, and we found that your app received strong negative feedback from users, which is why it was removed for providing a poor user experience.
Because of this, we will not be able to restore your app. However, if you'd like to relaunch with a new app ID and canvas URL, please first make adjustments to ensure you're providing a good user experience and meeting our policies. You can monitor your app's user feedback here: http://www.facebook.com/insights. Unfortunately we cannot provide you with your original canvas URL.

Facebook Platform Policy Team
I added my original Facebook support in July 2007. I was forced to update it in February 2010 when Facebook changed the ability to post to a profile page. The plugin moved into news feed publishing and all was well. There were several challenges to this but I think its been working for everyone. Facebook implements throttling so you can't have an app post more than X times per day. That X is dependent on some algorithm based on feedback, popularity, etc. This app stayed in the low teens and grew to the high teens. I also had added a throttle capability in the plugin so you could tell it the number of minutes between posts. You don't want to blow your X posts per day all at once so this would spread it out. My users were often frustrated that every single song didn't post but I took the time to explain how Facebook works to them most of the time.
Now in order to provide an automated experience with the plugin, it must create the posts without user intervention. You would not want to have something popup on screen and say "What's your thought on this song?". Now this one. Now this one as they played. I am sure you would run out of witty stuff to type in minutes anyway. This automation violates IV.2 and IV.3 of the above. However, it seems to me that most Facebook apps violate this. They ask you to take a quiz, or show you something someone sent to someone else. There is often no discernible user input in those feeds yet they are allowed to persist. And they get fed to Facebook 24×7 without me granting each one. But I have a hunch why…
My guess is related to the feedback on those items. When you see a post in your feed that you don't like, you often get 3 choices when you click on the X by them. Hide the post, Hide the app that created the post, Hide the user, or Mark as spam. My guess is that people aren't too judicious about the choice here. The right answer most of the time in my opinion is to "Hide the app". Not interested in Farmville? Hide the app so you don't see anybody's Farmville. Not interested in musical tastes? Hide the Now Playing app so you don't see posts by anyone like this. I don't believe that choice would negatively impact your app's rating with the Facebook police/machine. Maybe it does. But I bet if enough folks hit "Mark as spam" things get triggered and that is what happened here. Its a shame.
Another thing to add is that Facebook is currently revamping their APIs yet again and while not requiring it yet, will undoubtedly later require developers to conform to yet another API. More migration hassles.
So that's how we got where we are today.
Fucking Facebook!.
There got that off my chest. So what to do now? Frankly, I don't know. I decided to just write this post and lay out what happened and hopefully get some feedback on what people want to see. I will throw out some ideas and you can get behind those or propose your own. After a bit of time (week?), I will try and make some decisions and push forward on a new course.
Option A – Do nothing. Always the first thing I list when I list options. What I really mean by this is that I will hide the Facebook tab and no longer support Facebook. This is sort of the cleanest answer as you will see because I think we will be continually trapped in Facebook's usage policy nightmare. You can still publish to Facebook by setting up a Twitter sync. You just don't get the pretty images and stuff. (Not that is another gap in this policy! I can auto publish to Twitter and sync to Facebook!)
Option B – Create a new application on Facebook and start building a new reputation. They are free so just create another application page, change the plugin to use that, and start publishing again with no changes. I fear that this will just anger the Facebook police though and it would only be a matter of time before we go through the mess again.
Option C – Allow each individual user to setup their own Facebook application and monitor and support it. This one intrigues me because it gets me out of the management of the reputation of the app portion. But its a complicated endeavor to get setup and I don't really want to play support for setting up a Facebook app. Its kind of an advanced move for most users. But this way, everyone has their own reputation and only their friends can mark it as spam. That way there are 1000s of Now Playing publishers but they aren't tracked together. Facebook might be able to stitch this together but I doubt its going to be as easy to discover versus a single app doing all the publishing.
Option D – Start a petition to Facebook and tell them this is stupid and its what we want. I am not that excited about this. I have bigger problems in life to spend time on.
Option E – Everyone quit Facebook because it is a massive waste of time. You know it is.
Your thoughts?

We're rolling into the last week of January, and the New Years Resolutions have started to wear off. Maybe that 12-month gym membership wasn't such a great idea, but the desire to branch out and try something new doesn't have to be tossed away. Fairmount Park Farmers' Market is hosting The Pitchfork School Winter Workshop Series — a fantastic variety of classes held over February, March and April led by local food legends such as Manning Canning, Alchemy Pickle Co., and many more.
There are eight types of workshops to choose from, and admission can be purchased individually or party-pack style; the more classes you sign up for, the more you save. So if you can't decide between traditional ghee-making, preserving with bourbon, homemade ricotta or planning your urban vegetable garden, I hereby give you permission to go wild. This is a great opportunity to support local businesses while learning something new. Now that's a solid New Year's Resolution.
All materials are included with each class, and space is limited to twelve. Pitchfork School classes tend to fill up quickly, so head on over to their registration site.

Membership Profiles
Nashville, TN - JW Marriott , October 13-16, 2019
Maryland, MD - Gaylord National Harbor, May 3-6, 2020
NASCIO, Grant Thornton LLP and CompTIA have collaborated for a seventh consecutive year to survey state government IT leaders on current issues, trends and perspectives. New service delivery models, innovative technology solutions, and rising customer expectations all require state CIOs to adapt continually to changing circumstances.
The issue brief focuses on state use of social media, specifically on state social media participation policies ("SMPP's"). NASCIO's Legal Advisory Working Group took a look at 31 SMPPs, which focus specifically on guidance/policy given to state employees regarding their participation in social media.
States have come a long way in the past few years, with the majority implementing social media policies or working towards one. However, some of the gaps found have the potential to open up states to some severe heartburn: including employee discontent, management concerns, public perception and liability.
The issue brief also addresses the inclusion of clauses on confidentiality, ethical conduct, security and privacy, and transparency in SMPP's.

A resident of Nehru Nagar, Sonu Perreira (21), who is visually challenged and her elderly mother is mentally ill, said, "I cannot take any job, as the BMC would demolish the house today and we have no other place to live. The BMC has made no alternative arrangement for us. Where do we go during the monsoon? We cannot even stay in open."
The BMC notice read,"It has been informed by deputy chief engineer (SWD) of MCGM that because of cropping up of such unauthorised obstructions/encroachments/constructions along and over the nalla, the desilting/cleaning of the nalla cannot be done properly, which results in flooding of Nehru Nagar slum and the road surface at SV Road and VM Road during the monsoon every year. In order to avoid the problems of flooding and the possibility of any disaster during monsoon, it is necessary to remove all unauthorised obstructions/encroachments/ constructions immediately. You are hereby called upon to remove the unauthorised obstruction//encroachments/ constructions which has been made by you at your residence/premise mentioned within 48 hours from receipt of this notice, failing which the same will be removed by the office at your entire risk and cost and without giving any further reference/intimation to you which may please be noted."
Another resident Laxmi Das who lives with five other members of hr family said, "We are staying here for 25 years and now the BMC says that half of our house will be razed. How do we stay in the half broken house?" she asked.
Activist Bilal Khan of Ghar Bachao Andolan questioned the monsoon preparedness of the BMC. "Is this the monsoon preparedness of the civic body? The rule is that these people must get rehabilitated before getting their houses demolished. The BMC has not followed the rule. BMC's unpreparedness to deal with monsoon and growing arrogance may leave poor and specially-abled people homeless," he said.
There was no response from the BMC officials on the issue.

I was born in southwestern Michigan, and spent most of my early years there living in a small town where I was a good student and active in the Boy Scouts.
It was during this time that I went on a Scout sponsored trip to visit Native Americans in New Mexico and Colorado. These views of the west lit a spark in me that would grow into a restless flame.
During my adolescence my parents moved to the Chicago area. It was an exciting place at an exciting time for a young man but I was impatient to travel and when the circus left town I left town with it.
What followed were many years of wandering, following boom towns and opportunities, working at odd jobs to keep going. I drove a school bus in DC for Art Linkletter , managed a restaurant in West Virginia, worked river barges on the Ohio river, worked as a ranch hand in Wyoming, sold cars in Texas and tended bar in Alaska. Living Kerouac's dream, I discovered an entire community "on the road", everyone looking for something, everyone going somewhere. It was as good as America ever was and a generation was enjoying it to its fullest.
Eventually the love of a good woman slowed me down and I settled in Sacramento, California. After nearly five blissful years I sold my belongings and moved to Saipan, Northern Mariannas. After a brief sojourn there I returned to northern California for a short time before moving to central Texas.
In Texas I found stability and prosperity working in property management but after several years a change in staffing put me back on the road. I returned to California, choosing the central coast this time, San Luis Obispo.
In SLO I started a mobile home maintenance company and fell back on tutoring, a trade made easier by the presence of the California Polytechnic Institute in town. That provided a good income while still leaving me plenty of time to sail out of nearby Avila Bay.
California was good for many years but then Texas beckoned again, San Antonio this time, refurbishing a 600 unit apartment complex. As that project was nearing completion I was offered a position turning around a troubled hotel in southern California, another multi-year project. When that ended I stayed in LA managing a landscaping crew and framing houses for an additional year but with a new baby in the house I decided to get out of LA.
From the west coast of America to the west coast of Florida, Sarasota would be my home for the next several years. I moved to Atlanta for an opportunity but tired of life in the city. I sold my boat and bought forty acres of forested land in west Pickens County. I found work teaching at Pickens Technical Institute.
While I was teaching I was also a student, earning a Technical Certificate from Pickens and graduating with honors from Dalton State. Thus occupied for the next decade, I was building my computer skills and in two thousand two I struck out with a group from the school to start a computer-based training company.
Eventually the accumulation of damage from an auto accident forced me from the workforce. I became a house husband, my wife going off to work while I cook, clean, maintain and improve the property I call FredLand.
The last quarter century since I came to these hills has been the happiest time of my life.

Office furniture outfit Steelcase first made its name with the invention of a fireproof wastebasket, the Victor, which it launched to great acclaim in 1914. Some hundred years later, the company has grown into the largest office furniture firm in the world, offering everything from interactive whiteboards to ergonomic desk chairs.
Throughout a century of growth, one thing has remained constant—a product design process that takes human behavior as its starting point.
More than building furniture, the company "is about building experiences for people," said Donna Flynn, the company's vice president of workspace futures.
To that end, Ms. Flynn leads a team of around 20 researchers focused on understanding how people work and anticipating ways this might change in the future, doing, she said, "a lot of research on work practices and work environments," thinking about "the future of work and what that is going to look like and how we take those insights and integrate them."
One hundred years ago, such an approach led the company to notice that, in an office culture where smoking was commonplace, a fireproof wastebasket was a handy thing to have around. In more recent times, it has led to products like Steelcase's Gesture chair, an office chair reimagined to meet the realities of our texting, tablet-using present.
With features including a reclining back and arms that can be dragged and dropped into a wide range of positions, the chair aims to accommodate the many new postures our electronic devices can place us in.
"We noticed that there was a new thing happening in [work] spaces, which was that the smart phone and tablet were augmenting the technology landscape for people at work as serious business tools," said James Ludwig, the company's vice president of global design and product engineering.
However, Mr. Ludwig noted, conventional workstations and chairs "hadn't really addressed things like the postures we find ourselves in when we are resting our elbows and trying to thumb in a text."
And this insight, born of the Steelcase's user-centered design philosophy, led it to consider how they might design furniture to better support these emerging behaviors.
"It was an insight to say, how could we augment the features of our new cast chair to embrace this?" Mr. Ludwig said. "How could we pull in these new postures we were seeing and support them in a better way?"
"We are always trying to stay a few steps ahead… and then taking that knowledge and feeding it into our design process or business strategy or even the corporate strategy to what we think the business as a whole needs to be thinking about in the future," Ms. Flynn said.
We believe the office is becoming the center of the culture for the organization.
Currently, she said she and her team are taking a good look at trends like the "quantified self" movement, where low-cost, small-sized sensors are making it possible to take more and more behavioral measurements.
Another big area of interest, she said, is virtual reality and how it might play a role in distributed work and long-distance collaboration.
"Devices have given us the ability to do work anywhere, and we also see big trends in large organizations towards more network-type projects," she said. "So a lot of work is happening in the vehicle of projects and teams, and most people belong to multiple teams at a time, and those multiple teams are often highly distributed. So we are going to have to continue to search for better solutions to continue to support distributed work."
That said, Ms. Flynn noted, the office isn't going away anytime soon. (Good news for an office furniture firm.)
"We do believe the office is going to continue to play a key role," she said. "We believe the office is becoming the center of the culture for the organization. It is the place you come to get your best work done with other people. So [there are] a lot of social interactions, a lot of collaborative interactions, a lot of high-value kinds of activities that the office can continue to support."
But while technology has and will no doubt continue to radically change the face of the workplace, Steelcase will retain its human focus, Ms. Flynn said.
"We want the technology and the advances that it brings us, but we are also human," she said. "So how can we really celebrate and support the human elements of work?"

It's not always easy to #talkaboutdiabetes. When you're a pregnant diabetic trying to gather as much information as possible #languagematters and it can all feel like a bit of a challenge. (This harks back to Alison's pregnancy in 2013, she isn't pregnant again, the world isn't ready for that!).
Whatever medical condition I have I like to get a good understanding of it. How does it work, why are things happening, what are the pros and cons of all the options for treating it? I've always seen this as critical to successful diabetes management.
Open conversations with medical professionals are key to this. I need to be able to ask questions about what's happening and why. The answers help me understand what's going on and inform my decisions.
Taking this approach to pregnancy is proving challenging. There seems to be a default setting that means any question you ask will be construed as you either having a positive desire to recklessly put your unborn/newborn baby in danger or for you being completely unable to cope with the concept that birth is a natural process and mightn't go to plan. No, I'm just trying to understand what's happening here. Calm down and listen to me.
I've got a few questions about the birth. You're only 17 weeks, we'll discuss that much later on. But it's worrying me now, and I want to discuss it now so that I have time to think things through, do more research, discuss it with my husband etc. And if we're going to be picky you asked me at 6 weeks if I intended to breastfeed, so chronologically, you're ahead of me anyway. Well we can't say what will happen at your birth, it's too early. I know, but you can talk me through the decision making process you use so I can get a feel for what happens, when and why. Well yes, I suppose so. Thank you.
What's your policy on inducing diabetics? You'll be induced at 38 weeks. End of conversation. How helpful. So I asked someone else, this time slightly differently. What decision making process do you go through to decide when to induce? We look at the size of the baby, and also other signs such as blood pressure, protein in urine, scan results which may indicate the start of an issue with the placenta. Ah, that's more helpful. Now I understand how you make the decision and why. And lo, no babies were harmed by us having that conversation.
What percentage of your inductions end up in an emergency caesarean? If baby is in danger you'll have to have a caesarean. Oh, and here was me willing to let my own child die just to avoid a scar. I'm just trying to get a feel for how often that happens, so I can manage my own expectations of what could happen. Is it likely, is it rare? Well we only do them when necessary. I'm sure you do, I'm not accusing you of doing them as a hobby, I'm just trying to get some perspective on what's going on. It really would be helpful if every question wasn't treated like I'm deliberately trying to put my own child at risk.
How do we manage my diabetes during the birth? First answer – you'll be put on a sliding scale drip. Ah, and you do that with everyone? Yes. So I asked a different Dr. Oh, you seem to know what you're doing and you're on the pump, if you want to manage it yourself you can and if you end up too high and can't get it down, we'll put you on a drip. That sounds more like it, thanks. It's a shame I feel like I need to ask that question 3 more times to make sure I get a majority view.
Would you recommend expressing colostrum before the birth to give to the baby immediately after birth for its first feed? If baby's blood sugar is low it'll be given dextrose. OK, but what if it isn't low and just needs food? Why are you opposed to giving it dextrose? I'm not, just that if it's not hypo my understanding is that it'd be better off with a decent meal of breast milk, and the experience of others seems to show that sometimes the quickest way to get that in is by expressing it pre-birth and then feeding it to the baby. Thus reducing the risk of a subsequent baby hypo. Well, I suppose so, but if baby is hypo it'll have to have dextrose. At which point did I say I wouldn't let that happen? Calm down and listen to the question, I'm just trying to understand what's going on here.
Can we please just have a normal, grown up conversation? You listen to my question and try to answer it, that kind of thing? I've learned that midwives are generally quite good at this. They're now my first point of contact for any question, and then we refer to the Dr if required. Why didn't I start with this approach you may ask? Because at 17 weeks I said to the Dr "am I ever going to see a midwife again, I think they might be able to answer some of my questions?". Apparently I should have been seeing one as part of every clinic visit, but somehow that wasn't happening. It's always worth asking the question. Sometimes you actually get a useful response.

- Review by Michael SAll my employees received this bag as a thank you for there hard work all year with a bottle of my families home made wine. It was a very simple process ordering this reusable wine tote.

- Review by Karolina NWe customized this bag for our champagne that we make, the bag came out great and plays off the color of our champagne bottle well.
- Review by Codie RI manage an upscale italian restaurant and use this bag to package any leftover bottles of wine that our customers don't finish. I got the idea from a restaurant that I actually took my fiancee too. The customers love it and it has brought us repeat business.
- Review by Rielly SWe consulted with there design department to create a fully custom wine tote from size and color it was personalized to our wine company. IF you want something unique that just isn't stamped out in a factory that everyone has they created a very unique reusable wine tote for us. I suggest custom earth to all of our suppliers who deal with wine companies for the fact that I know it will only help the enviorment as well.

I was born in a Prefab built on bomb rubble in one of the poorer areas of London, England, after the Second World War. What had once been a densely packed industrial/ residential area alongside the Grand Surry Canal was quickly leveled by the notorious V1 and V2 bombs during the Blitz. The V2 Rockets were the first ballistic missiles. They weighed 13 tons and traveled faster than the speed of sound giving people no warning of their imminent arrival. The street I was born on was leveled by a V1 bomb, a pilotless plane also known as a Doodlebug.
Our Prefab had arrived in a box, was deposited on the leveled rubble and built in 48 hours. These houses weren't built to last, but were built to warehouse all of those who had been dispossessed because of the devastation of war and its resulting acute housing shortage. The fact that in some instances war-damaged aircraft were melted down to produce these houses and that POWs assisted in their construction, helped to make the Prefab a symbol of Britain rising from the ashes of war.. Newly transferred by the BBC from Edinburgh to London to cover the 1948 Olympics, my father along with my mother saw first hand the devastation that the war had wreaked during the Blitz. That,coupled with having to adjust to a Cockney dialect made them feel as if they had stepped into a foreign land.
In time all housing eventually was removed and the area was turned into Burgess Park. It sits on 50 hectares in the poorest part of one of London's most deprived boroughs with about 70,000 people living within 5km of the park. In 2009 a successful bid raised close to $3 million dollars to refurbish the park to become a family friendly place where densely packed urban dwellers could enjoy green space.
About Robin
The ruins of Jardin Street, London, the site where I was born. The grounds were leveled and the Prefabs erected. This area is now Burgess Park
The early 1950's in Britain were particularly bleak with dilapidated, unpainted buildings and shabbily dressed people. Few cars were on the roads and people used bicycles or public transport. Many kinds of food, such as butter, bacon, meat, tea, and sugar, were still rationed and would remain so until 1954. We were all issued Identity cards, even the children. For many, the hangover from the war, rationing, unemployment, and the lack of opportunity opened the floodgate and like thousands before us my family became immigrants to Canada.
As a young adult I was drawn into the Canadian Post-War, Post-Depression myth that was prevalent in the 50's and 60's; a log cabin in the wilderness where life could be lived in independence without the interference of government or social constructs. While hitchhiking throughout British Columbia, looking for land to settle on in 1968, I met many people who had lived through the Depression. I sat in their kitchens and listened to their stories. They were stories of courage and determination. What struck me was the fierce independence of these people and their tenacity in times of struggle. It was a lesson that has remained with me.
After buying some land, I spent five years raising my children living in relative isolation in a one room cabin without running water, telephone or electricity. To access this property, I had to walk half a mile through bear and cougar territory to get to my home. My life was very difficult at that time. I learned what it meant to be hungry, to experience abuse, loss and illness. But something very profound happened. I learned that no matter what situation life brings, somehow what we call God will come, that light can enter darkness. It became the doorway to spiritual awareness and the beginning of my creative process.

A manufactured smaller than normal waterfall courses through the roots and over the stones. The scene starts at the highest point of the incline, stretching out down to the base in a pool shaped by the waterfall. Bodhi Tree, Deep Forest, Traditional Village-each of the pieces has been named after a component of nature. The rooms and suites are displayed close to open passageways. In a specialty cut into a stone an ethnic themed café is arranged planned like the rural tea shops found in many parts of Kerala. At a young hour in the morning and late at night the murmur of the waterfall goes with the primal hints of wilderness felines, feathered creature calls and bugs.
Outside, galleries in each room and open patios on each floor watch out at the forested and tea clad mountain inclines undulating into the murkiness not too far off, a vista joined by a determined wind that blows for the duration of the day. At sunrise and frequently at various times over the span of a day, mists waft by and trails of fog snake into the valley quickly beneath. Settled in a peaceful forest of silver oak trees in the midst of stunningly delightful surroundings and thoughtful administration Windy Woods is calm just the encapsulation of extravagance and fine living.

Electric Nerve Stimulant & Vitaliser
1 ounce Chondrus crispus (whole)
1 ounce Bayberry bark (Myrica cerifera) (cut)
4 ounces Prickly Ash bark (Xanthoxylum fraxineum) (cut)
1. Put all ingredients into 2 quarts of distilled water. Stir well, then let stand for 2 hours with occasional stirring.
2. Boil for 30 minutes and strain while still hot.
3. To the strained liquid add 1 pint of black molasses and 1 pint glycerine. Boil slowly for 5 minutes, with constant stirring. Cool and bottle.
Dose: One wineglassful 3 or 4 times a day, between meals. Children, less according to age.
Purpose:Dr. Shooks noted: "This is a powerful vitalizer of the nervous system; particularly a stimulant and sialagogue to the nerves controlling speech, salivation, and deglutition. Also stimulant, digestive, hepatic and peristaltic. Excellent for partially paralyzed nerves of the mucus membrane. Has proved successful in chronic indigestion, lethargy, and atrophy of the stomach and digestive system in general. Exceedingly good for poor circulation, cold hands, and feet, spasmodic affections, epilepsy, Saint Vitus dance, ague, etc.
NOTE: On account of its energetic stimulant properties, prickly ash bark produces, when swallowed, a sense of heat in the stomach, with a more or less general excitement, and tendency to perspiration. It is a prompt remedy for nervous headache and toothache.

Cinco de Mayo continues to draw crowds across Australia
One of the biggest Mexican celebrations Cinco de Mayo continues to attract more people each year in one of the country's biggest celebrations of South American culture, food, music and dance.
The festival was originally celebrated to commemorate the Mexican battle of Puebla where the French were defeated, leaving the traditional culture, heritage and national heritage to be restored in the country. The battle lasted from daybreak to early evening, and when the French finally retreated they had lost nearly 500 soldiers. Fewer than 100 Mexicans had been killed in the clash.
The old naval store precinct in Brisbane is transformed into a little Mexico each year, featuring a Mariachi band, salsa dancing, Mexican street food, and more.
Today, many people confuse Cinco de Mayo with the Mexican Independence Day, which actually was actually declared more than fifty years before the Battle of Puebla.

Erected (Erector Set Book 1)
Title: Erected
Author: Desiree Holt
Series: Erector Set Book
Page Length: 133 pages
Publisher: Totally Bound Publishing
Publication Date: (November 7, 2017)
Genre: Erotic Romance
Erected, written by Desiree Holt and published under Totally Entwined, Totally Bound Publishing brand is the first book in D. Holt's Erector Set series. This would be my first book by this author, so I can't really tell you much about her writing style. Except I found Erected grossly entertaining.
The first meeting between this couple was hilarious when Vanessa Bowen though someone stole her car, just to find out it had been towed. In comes Josh McMann a gentleman who offered to assist Vanessa in claiming her car. One thing leads to another and Erected becomes erotic.
Though mild compared to some of the spicier stories out. D. Holt still shows you she got what it takes to compete with authors such as Maya Banks, Lauren Dane, Lori Leigh and Shayla Black.
Erected very quick and sexy read. With believable characters. Because after several chapters I was starting to dislike Vanessa and her wishy-washy was.
An accident, an unexpected meeting—and a sizzling attraction.
The first meeting between Josh McMann and Vanessa Bowen is anything but promising. He's just finished a successful dinner with a client and she's shrieking that someone's stolen her brand-new car. The walking cast on her leg doesn't help matters. Not a good way to start either a personal or business relationship…
One thing leads to another and soon her next collision is an off-the-charts one with Josh in bed. But there's more than sex at stake here and it will take real commitment to get past the trust issues they both have.

While the average County property tax rate across Oregon is significantly higher than $2 per $1000 of a property's assessed value, Josephine County's permanent rate to support operations is a mere 58 cents. The Federal funding that will be provided to the County in the current year is so small (compared to the total needs to maintain previous levels of Criminal Justice services) that it won't drastically affect the current year budget. Much of the federal funding will have to be carried over to next fiscal year to avoid even further cuts next year. Going forward after this year there is still nearly a $12 million per year deficit to get back to providing Criminal Justice services at a level where programs operated in past years.
Now that the County's budget is adopted for the new fiscal year that began July 1st, below is the breakdown of how the 58 cents is spent. Many folks have been concerned that Public Safety departments were the departments that were most affected after the recent failure of the property tax levy vote. As you can see, after funding required services almost all tax dollars go to Public Safety so there is little else to cut when the tax dollars are not available.
