TALK: Ē Luku Wale Ē
Starting in February of 2016, Hawai'i Council for the Humanities, in partnership with community groups, is pleased to present a series of TALK programs focusing on Ē Luku Wale Ē: Devastation Upon Devastation by Piliāmo'o, a collaborative name for photographers Mark Hamasaki and Kapulani Landgraf.
These hosted programs are designed to bring the local community together with humanities perspectives to discuss and think about Hawai'i's recent history regarding large-scale public projects and the use of sacred lands and places and the people who claim them. The aim of TALK is to engage multiple viewpoints by bringing awareness and raising questions to generate more knowledge about the Hawai'i Interstate H-3 project, which remains as one of the most contested projects in Hawai'i and serves as a timely reminder of current ones.
The opportunity to discuss these issues will help to understand and uncover what was literally covered over, or displaced, and finally dismantled, to complete the Hawai'i Interstate H-3 Highway, formally known as the John A. Burns Freeway.
Ē Luku Wale Ē serves several significant functions: to photo-document sacred sites, as they were and as they are erased; to tell the history of a massive engineering project that created the H-3 freeway–a route that traverses people and cars from Hālawa Valley through the Ko'olau range, emerging above Ha'ikū Valley, winding its way down into Kāne'ohe; and to visually and verbally lament the loss of what was and what had deep meaning to Native Hawaiians.

Use the measuring device indirectly to measure the lengths of the screws
using the previously inserted guide wires.
Although screws may be inserted in any order, it is usual to start with the
central 7.3 mm screw. Advance the guide wire until it reaches the medial cortex
of the femoral condyle. Measure for screw length using the measuring device.
For proper screw length measurement, the measuring device must contact the end
of the threaded wire guide. This will place the tip of the screw at the tip of
the guide wire.
Pearl: self-drilling/self-tapping screws
The self-drilling, self-tapping flutes of the 7.3 mm and 5.0 mm screws make
predrilling and pretapping unnecessary in most cases. In dense bone, the
lateral cortex can be predrilled, if necessary.

Today's Outfit of the Day is Polka Dots with a Splash of my favorite color, turquoise. This dress is fun and flirty and yet casual chic. It is a grown up version of polka dots that you could even wear on a date! The splash of turquoise is the perfect accent for the tan dress ; who doesn't like turquoise? The checkered back is definitely my favorite element of this dress. Pair it off with some tan wedges, and your ready to go!
ps, don't forget your =) with your outfit!

Pentagon: If you ever wanted to be left nonplussed, you would have been well advised to attend the press conference about Air-Sea Battle.
We were told yesterday afternoon by three clearly intelligent defense officials that their new office — staffed by 15 people — would be a "focusing lens" for the services. Exactly what they would be focusing was a tad hard to discern, but it clearly had something to do with fighting against governments (China et al) and proxy governments (like Hezbollah) that can use long-range precision weapons to try and stop the American military from entering and holding territory (military terminology for this is anti-access and ant-denial).
When folks at the Pentagon speak in redolent riddles — as this group did — and have a high profile, it often means their work is highly classified and/or might create diplomatic problems. Given that DoD went to the lengths of having someone from the OSD POlicy shop on hand to answer questions, it seems a safe bet this group's work crosses both thresholds.
I spoke briefly with one of the officials at the end of the press conference in hopes of getting some clarity as to their mission. I mentioned Hezbollah's successful use of Iranian anti-ship missiles in July 2006 and asked if this was the sort of problem that Air-Sea Battle is designed to address. The answer: yes (oh, and by the way, this person said it's "frustrating" not to be allowed to use specific examples). One of my colleagues, Sam LaGrone of Janes, also came up with an example during the Q and A. He mentioned work between the Navy and Air Force about using A-10s to defeat small swarm boat attacks on Navy ships. This was accepted as an example of just the kind of thing Air-Sea Battle might help the military focus on.
But one of the things that made the Air-Sea Battle discussion so opaque was the fact that much of the discussion centered on what the new office charged with pushing this concept is not. We learned it is a not a strategy, not a concept of operations, not an assault on the services' authorities and is not directed at any particular country.
So a gaggle of the nation's top defense journalists got together after the discussion and tried to figure out what the hell it all really meant. I'd like to say we achieved great clarity. We didn't. We were all left groping for a clear and coherent explanation we could offer readers for Air-Sea Battle.
After discussions with several defense civilians and uniformed types, I think the best way to describe this effort is to say that the defense leadership is worried that after a decade of counterinsurgency operations the U.S. military has lost its focus on conventional warfare, especially the strike and counterstrike that drives much of a military operation. The Joint Staff has given its all — and is still giving its all — fighting and thinking about Iraq and Afghanistan, not to mention Yemen, Somalia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Colombia and all those other places special operators are combating terrorists and insurgencies. That means, as one of the defense officials noted, that the Air-Sea Battle folks concepts and understanding of anti-access and anti-denial warfare are more "state of the art" than the joint force.
Inside the Pentagon's SCIFs these concepts and discussions may be crystal clear. If Air-Sea Battle is to become something fundamental to how our forces train, equip and fight its advocates must be unleashed to discuss their work with more specific examples and with greater clarity. Otherwise, Congress and many people wearing uniforms will be left scratching their heads and wondering just what the heck it all means.
By the way, the three defense officials told us that the Army will be invited to join the Air-Sea Battle work. After all, no one is more responsible for the bloodiest parts of anti-access and anti-denial operations. Given the Army's participation, maybe we should rename this the Air-Sea-Land Battle Office. Or maybe just go with that old moniker — the Joint Staff? Hmm?

Watch how simple it is to setup a "mailrooms" project where you can send a variety of documents into ABBYY FlexiCapture and let it determine the document type.
Hello. Today I'm going to show you ABBYY FlexiCapture from Mailrooms. Now, the Mailroom's concept allows us to provide a variety of documents to the software and let the software determine what type of document it is. For example, we could be monitoring an email box, you could be scanning in a variety of documents and letting the software determine what kind of documents those are and how to route those. The very first thing we're going to do in order to make that process happen is we're going to use what ABBYY calls their classification designer. When you deal with the classification designer, you provide it a hierarchy of documents in like a file folder system setup.
You can see here I have my auto classifier projects started, and I provided it a sample set of documents. Now, that sample set is right here. These are the samples that I used, so I just provided a folder of documents here. I can go in here, and you can see those different documents that we did. We provided those to the software, and now what the software is going to do is allow us to control what happens here. We have what we call a training set and a testing set. The training set of documents are the ones that the software is going to consider itself fully trained on, so these are documents that you want to consider positive documents for that specific document type.
Then, of course, testing is so that we can throw a variety of documents at it and let the software tell us which ones it believes they are. That's the difference between a training set, but the training set's very important because that's what the software is going to train itself upon. That's what we've done, and you can see here we've sent in some documents, and you can see it's trained. Then we can actually force the software to classify these by using our classify button. When it classifies them, it's telling you what it believes that document is. We can kind of go through here and do just a few of those so you can see those. We can go into contracts and, of course, we can go into letters. You can see we had those categorized.
Now, we could, potentially in the real world, go deeper for a letter. For example, we can do things like positive letters or negative letters. If somebody's sending us positive feedback, we may want that categorized and routed one way, and if it's negative or a complaint, we may want that routed another way. That's an example of how we could control different content of it. Now, the software uses two approaches, and you're going to see that here in our properties. You can use what we call visual classifiers, which means the software's going to look at the document and use the way that it looks at it to determine the document type, or we can use what we call content.
Content means that it's going to use the text on the document, also known as OCR, to determine the type of document it is. Visual, once again, uses how the document looks like, and content looks at the actual text on the document. That's why, of course, on a letter, for example, we use content instead of visual, because we're all about the content on a letter. Now that we've classified, we've categorized our documents in the classification designer, all we need to do is train the software how these documents look, and that's a very simple process. Now that we've categorized them, all we're going to do is go to classification, and we are actually going to train the project.
Training will take all of this into effect. It will look at all of our documents in the training set and train itself on what these are. Now it's completed. What we will do now that it's done is we can actually send documents to the software and see how the software categorizes them. That makes us complete with the classification designer, so now we will jump into the FlexiCapture side of it, where we're actually processing live documents. In order for you to see that, I'm going to send some documents in. I'm just going to send some random documents just so you can see these. Into the software, and we'll let those cement here very quickly.
You can see the progress being reported on this middle, but the important part will actually come within the FlexiCapture setup statement when we look at the batch. I'm going to look at our working batches. Now, we'll let this finish here. We did send, I don't know, four or five documents. There is that batch that we just sent. If we look at the batch, we can see that there are four different documents that we sent. If we look at them, here's the neat part, is the software has determined, based on the classification designer training that we did, what kind of document type it is. You can see that there. It believes this one's a letter. It believes this one's a banking document, which it is. It believes this one's an ID card, which I'll show you here that it is as well, so there's your ID. That's the top one I skipped.
This is an invoice. As you can easily see here, that's obviously an invoice. That's the neat part about the classification is we set it up in the classification designer so that it can be trained, but now FlexiCapture has determined the document type and will allow us to route and extract what we want off of those different types of documents. Just to give you a little bit of a peak, one more time behind the scenes, we use what we call a classification stage to do this. This is kind of where some of the nitty gritty happens, where we're communicating with the classification designer and making sure that we understand what kind of document this could potentially be, and that's where that classification step in the workflow, here, does its magic for us.
That's a very quick demo of how FlexiCapture from Mailrooms worked. I hope you enjoyed it. If you have questions or have an interest for this in your organization, please contact us. Thank you so much.

"Murder Your Darlings." A Trader's Motto
If you want to succeed at trading you have to be willing, and able, to murder your darlings. Of all the trading sins, not murdering your darlings is one of the worst.
"Darlings" in this case refers to your losing trades or those trades that could turn into losers. The "Murder your darlings" quote is attributed to Arthur Quiller-Couch, to spur writers and authors to cut redundant or useless sentences from their work. Intended for writers, it is apt for traders.
Why Murdering Your Darlings is Important
If you day trade for any length of time you'll find that some trades go your way, and some go against you. No matter what you do, no matter how good you get, some trades will do something very different than what you expect. To have any hope at making a profit over the course of the day, week, month or year you need to stop those losing trades from erasing what the winning trades give you.
Day traders will often have a few winnings trades in a day, but if they let one loss get out of hand, it can erase the whole day of profits (and more). Cut the loss, here's how.
Planning the Murder
Always approach trading with a plan. Your losing trades need to be axed, so plan the various ways to do it. The simplest way to "murder" a losing trade is to have a stop loss order attached to it. The stop loss is set at the outset of the trade, and it serves to cap the risk on the trade.
Ideally, send out a stop loss order with every trade you take. Platforms like NinjaTrader or MetaTrader make it easy with a few tweaks, so there is no excuse not to have one if you opt to use a fixed stop loss.
Other options for murdering a bad trade include "active trade management." Active trade management is where you continually analyze the market situation while in a trade. Ideally, a stop loss should still be set, as it acts as a last resort to get you out of the trade if you fail to manually exit the trade before that price is reached.
With active trade management, you still plan how you will exit the trade. Strategize what you will do if various circumstances develop. Remember, not all trades will work out as we expect, so consider the possibilities; hatch a plan and then exit according to your plan and what the market does.
There are a number of tricky situations which often require you to murder a trade, but many traders don't.
- You have already let the loss get too big. This is the worst; because you already let the loss get bigger than it should be, there is a desire to wait for it to come back in your favor before getting out. Get out, you shouldn't be in it anyway. If the trade/asset isn't moving much, set a stop loss on it to make sure you get out if it starts moving against you again. Once you are out you will feel better and can start looking for new opportunities.
- For many traders, a stop loss means they can be lazy. If conditions turn unfavorable, they hope their trade will still work out, and if it doesn't they reason that their stop loss is there to protect them. That is true, but if you know that you are highly likely to be stopped out on a trade, why let it hit your stop loss? If the trade is a winner and conditions start to turn, take the profit, don't let it hit your stop loss.
- Whether you are using a fixed profit target, or just have one in mind, one of the great sins in trading is letting the price hit your stop loss (for a full loss) when the price had almost reached your profit target. In day trading the price moves quickly and getting one chance is often all you get. If the price gets close to your profit target, consider that a win. Hold it if it keeps moving toward the target, but if it shows signs of slowing down or reversing, exit immediately and take the profit. Don't let an almost full winner turn into a full loser.
Summary on Murdering Your Darlings
Have a plan for exactly how will exit a trade in various circumstances. Having a stop loss is one recommended step, but you can do more. Realize the market is constantly changing, and the best traders have the adaptability to change with it. Always have a plan, and that will keep you somewhat distanced and unemotional about trades. If you have an emotional attachment to a trade, murder it, and don't trade it again until that attachment is gone.

Inside the Mind of Octavius Williams: Part 1
This is something a little bit different for me and for the Cypher Avenue audience. It's my first steps into my new vlogging venture where I hope to present more nuanced, "middle of the road" thoughts and conversations that I feel is drastically missing – but desperately needed – within non-heterosexual spaces. A more formal introduction as it pertains to the 'whats and whys' is to come but in the meantime; I hope you enjoy parts 1 and 2 of my initial offering…hell, I even created my own theme music.
Many Appreciations,
Ocky Williams

Well, don't have any real constructive criticism as of yet, since it's a new direction. Like a TV series, I think you have to give it a few episodes to critique (hell, I'll even give Herr Trump a 100 day grace period before I start tearing into his administration). So, more comments around Episode 4 (A New Bro).
I did laugh at the porn shop interlude, as we're both old enough to remember when those places were mainstream. The note under the door made me laugh. Yeah, that first proposition out the blue takes you for a surprise. I was 18, in college, and some Menace II Society crackhead looking dude just walked up to me at a bus stop, looked at my crotch and said, "You look like you got a BIG ol' dick, why don't you come back in this alley and let me suck it!" So, I was horrified and thus my homosexuality stayed latent for many many more years to come. Even when a lot of older grad students took me under their wing as a freshman and only YEARS later did I realize they were looking for more than Socratic relationship in me.
Also, feel you on the job tip, so proceed at your own risk, or as I joked a few months ago, Django Chained. But every subject doesn't have to be political. Sometimes we all have weird, funny shit in our minds that have nothing to do with politics. Example: Recently, I visited an older cousin who had a picture of me taken around the time of that bus stop episode. I had a Narcissus at the pond moment 'cause now I'm looking back at myself through openly gay eyes. I kept thinking, Dayummmm I was such a fine black twink. I couldn't take my eyes off the pic and I wished I had a time machine so I could go back in time and fuck myself lol (I'm definitely turning that into a story). So, I'd like to hear some of those out-there Ock thoughts too, not just current events.
Hearing each other's stories is the first part of building community. The Boards fulfills this role. Your vlog brings it to a new level. It is a commonplace that most of us felt isolated and alone growing up. We knew or suspected that we did not fit in. 50 years ago the circumstances were different but the reality was the same. Now all these years later it matters to me to hear you speak openly about your experience, your need for intimacy. I wish it weren't true, that we had moved to a better place.
I hope you continue this. It brought smiles at times and that is good. We need to find the humor in our experience.
I particularly like your eye for detail and your willingness to tell your story – right down to the slimy floor in the booth – for some of us of a certain age we have been there and there is no point in sparing the sensibilities of those who were not lucky enough to leave the video store with our shoes sticking to the sidewalk.

Lol. I got all that near sticky experience as a kid in a comic book store. There was a side room that had unadvertised adult material. Me and my friends would always see older guys go in there and not come out before we left with our DC, Marvel stash. One day, my buddy went into the side rooms when the comic book guy wasn't looking. He came out a half hour later with a glazed look and said hurry up, lets go. As we were waiting for the bus, he pulled out some Hustlers he shoplifted and told me of the glories of the secret side room (the comic book store was downtown just a couple of blocks from Larry Flynt's offices too lol).
I was too scared as a kid to go in there and by the time I was 18, it had been torn down and turned into a parking lot.
it had been torn down and turned into a parking lot.
In DC they (the stores) got turned into condos!
Thanks for the sharing this @Ockydub I related to to all of that.
I'm not close to a single member of my grade school classmates . I was always drawn to the male form even as a kid . So I get all of that with the hunching , ding a ling showings , and vagina views but I wasn't molested or anything . I was precocious tho and curious . I feel comfortable enough to say had the opportunity to be "molested" been afforded to me,I'd have willingly participated .
I totally distanced myself from chicks in high school . I never felt like I really fit in with any particular crowd . I never bonded with classmates and it's odd to me know seeing how tight knit some of them are on Facebook . Like really close .
College was crazy . Dorm rooms and communal showers were hard . We had dudes walking around the dorm on the way to the shower butt ass naked . I had not seen so many other dudes nude before I was losing my mind . I had to take showers in the off hours because the moment I'd see a naked dude . . . Rock . And would quickly leave the shower if another guy came in . I really could not handle it then .
And flicks . . . I was totally focused on the dudes when all I had was straight porn . I loved the gang bang scenes because it meant more dudes I could focus on .
Good listen . Looking forward to hearing part 2.
Man,to put yourself out there like that aint easy,but it's really groovy you did because a LOT more people than you'd probably think can relate to your story.There's been handfuls of guys in my real life or online who have nearly the same story as you,even the part about your brother.I think when people hear things like what you shared,it makes it easier for them to open up because now they know their narative isn't weird and that others will relate.
I have only listened to half, will get to the rest, but good job in being an example for other gay men to follow, to open up yourself and reveal these things, to not only help yourself in a cathartic sense, but to also let others know they are not alone.
Also is that you in that pic?
*I was browsing Youtube and what do I see recommended on the side for me?-this video! Damn spying sneaking internet!!!! lol.
Dope. I've always appreciated ur willingness to be unapologetically opinionated, and I appreciate ur willingness to go even further, being so candid about some things that a lot of gay men have also experienced and can relate to. Glad you were able to get ur vlog goin. Looking forward to part 2. Thanks for sharing this.
Not EnJ?! That easy jesus?!
We got a bottle of that in hs (unfortunately my mom was in the hospital for a stretch of that year, so my sister, who is ur age, was 'in charge')
4 of us got our hands on a bottle of that my sr year of hs. We went to my house n watched 'Dont Be a Menace' n got sooo sick n fukd up bro.
U really brought me back w that random EnJ part.
N like I said, a lot of ppl can relate to this podcast man. My cuzzins (my age group) and I used to hump too! And fight too! Kids literally do this kind of stuff. Our parents would have card parties, n the kids would be sent to go over there somewhere! We used to hump. It was def very 'intersex', but we def had some young homo moments too. N like u said, it wasnt even sexual, cus no one was out here lookin for an orgasm at such young ages, it was about being 'bad' and 'secretive' in the actual bedroom closet, like during sleep overs.
Now, never my sister. She was 'too grown' to deal w us 'lil' kids. She thought of us as filth, lol. But yea, my cuzzins and I were some mischievous kids too. The adults were in there gettin liquored up, n we were in there 'bein grown'. Smh.
1. I have MAD respect for you.
2. You are not alone, many have experienced something like this but are not brave/hones enough to talk about it. Or maybe they just aren't ready to share.
3. Listening to the intimacy scenarios you talk about I relate to you on so many levels.
Thank you so much for this. I have longed to meet some normal, sane guys who I can relate to, trust, share with & just get through life with, outside of my relationship. As SGL men of color, we have a unique experience in this life, in this country and we could really be so much of a support to each other if we channeled that energy. Again, I truly applaud you, lift you up and thank you for this. I really needed to listen to this today.
That was very heart warming. I felt the vulnerability. Thanks for sharing pieces of your soul with us. http://imgur.com/a/tnjoL
This might be one of my favorite podcast because it is really relatable and needed because I think we all felt alone growing up, especially if you are raised in the church. I like hearing about others stories, although this may sound weird but it makes me feel "normal", like what I went through and the secret thoughts I had was common. I did have the bro type relationships growing up but I always felt alone because as far as I know they weren't gay. Good Job Ock! Can someone post the link of Nicks version?

Now we just have to write it down to preserve the little details and after 3 days of contemplating I'm still not sure how to go about it — chronologically or in categories. I guess it will be a little bit of both and maybe the end result will end up being a kind of a guide for someone who is planning to make a similar trip.
We did a lot of research before our trip. A great resource for researching a trip to Japan is japan-guide.com. We knew the cities that we will visit, but we knew very little about what exactly we want to see in those cities. We picked out the places and read up on transportation and getting around.
We put together a 17 page document1 with maps, schedules and our step by step plan. This was instrumental in us not getting lost a single time. We didn't take a single wrong turn, didn't get on the wrong train and never missed our stop.
We also made sure to pre-order a pair of JR Passes that can only be done outside of Japan, which was a right decision. With respect to learning some basic Japanese — we made no progress whatsoever and hoped that we can rely on English to get us through.
Getting There And Around
The first part was easy — get on a plane in JFK and wait for 14 hours. We did just that on early Friday morning and landed somewhere mid-day on Saturday. Upon arrival to Narita International Airport (one of Tokyo's airports) we went through passport control, customs and everything else within 20 minutes or so — everything was fast and efficient.
We made sure to go and exchange our JR Pass exchange orders for actual passes right in the airport, so we wouldn't have to look for an exchange agency somewhere else later on. We decided to activate our passes from our 1st full day in Japan (Sunday). This way our JR Passes were active for all of our trip and expired on the last Saturday. On Sunday we were flying back out home.
In order to get to our hotel we decided to use a limo bus service. Taxi cost ran somewhere around $300, so that was not an option and we didn't want to experiment with trains while we were loaded with luggage. The bus picked us up right at the airport and dropped us off right in front of our hotel. It cost us ¥3,0002 per person and got us to our hotel in about an hour and a half or so. No problems.
In Tokyo itself we were originally planning to get a one-day unlimited subway pass, but since we ended up activating the JR Pass one day earlier than we originally planned it turned out that we didn't need the subway pass at all. JR has a good number of lines in Tokyo and one of the lines (Yamanote Line) runs in a loop through all the central areas of Tokyo that we wanted to visit. The only place that we took subway to was Roppongi Hills Tower, since it had no convenient JR access.
As we have learned getting around Japan's train system is extremely easy, especially after living in New York. Each station has signs in English, without an exception. The are signs specifying the name of the station, the next station in each direction and signs pointing to the lines and the list of station names that trains stop on on each line.
Inside the trains there are also electronic signs that switch from Japanese to English all the time in almost all the cases. And to top it off in most cases there are announcements in English as well.
Also I had all the maps I could find in PDF format loaded into my iPad and I had a Google-like maps in my iPhone that didn't need the internet connection. All this was very helpful too.
JR Pass, even though expensive, is very valuable. Just all the time that we saved by simply showing the pass and going through instead of fiddling with ticket machines, figuring out the rate fare every time makes it worth it.
Of course you have to do the math and see if the money part makes sense to you. Most cost comes with Shinkansen (bullet train) rides. We knew that we will go from Tokyo to Osaka, but if we wouldn't also make a day trip to Hiroshima it wouldn't have paid for itself.
The pass costs $370 right now. The ride from Tokyo to Osaka costs $174 with a seat reservation and $250 for a trip from Osaka to Hiroshima and back. Reservations are another added value of JR Pass — the are free with the pass. So we made sure to have our seats reserved when we were taking Shinkansen anywhere.
We used the pass everyday and everywhere. We used it to get around Tokyo, we used it to get to Osaka, we used it to go to Nara and Kyoto, we took a round trip on a bullet train to Hiroshima and we used it to get to Miyajima Island from Hiroshima — the train ride and then a JR ferry which is also covered by the pass.
Trains are always on time, and are minute to the minute exactly on schedule. Before boarding the train people make two lines on the platform near the markings where the door will open. Sometimes there can be several lines at a time — one near a circle and one near a triangle on the platform. Each train on the schedule board is also marked with a circle or a triangle, so you know where to line up.
When the train stops and doors open the line splits into two and allows the people on the train to exit in order. After everyone has exited people go in from both sides of the door. Everything happens quickly and orderly. People also mostly do not talk on the train to each other or on the phone. The trains are surprisingly quite inside because of this. I think Alёna and I were the only ones who kept talking to each other — we were just too full of all the new impressions of things around us that we had to share.
Riding a bullet train is an experience in its own. First of all, the trains are gorgeous with their sharp noses. Inside they feel like a business class inside a plane and that's in a regular car, not a green (luxury) car. Each chair has a lot of legroom, reclines, has a table and an electrical plug.
Even thought the trains go at high speeds you don't really feel it all that much. You're generally looking at a distant mountains or towns and they move by at a normal pace. You only notice how fast the train is when you go by another train. You can't even make out another train — just a big blur.
As I said before we took a Hikari express to Osaka from Tokyo on Monday and we took Hikari to and Sakura train from Hiroshima on the 25th of November (Friday). Sakura train appeared to be even more luxurious than Hikari was. There is a LED display at the end of each car with text scrolling in Japanese and English — "This is HIKARI superexpress bound for Shin-Osaka" and it lists the stops that the train will make and what the next one is.
In Kyoto we bought a two-day unlimited subway and bus passes. It might not have made things cheaper, but it sure made things easier. A lot of locations are on the outskirts of the city and there is no convenient JR access in the city. But as in every other place everything was easy to figure out. Even the buses. That's what makes the unlimited pass valuable — the pricing depends on the distance that you're traveling in a lot of cases and with the unlimited pass you don't have to worry about it.
We also took a tram in Hiroshima to reach the memorial park from the Hiroshima JR station. But again, reading about it beforehand and knowing what tram to take made it easy. Also there are maps available everywhere again. The tram costs ¥150 for a ride per person and all stations also have signs with English names, so we didn't get lost here either.
On the last day we took a bus shuttle to Osaka Itami Airport, since there was no JR access to it — that's why we ended up activating our JR Passes one day earlier than we originally planned. The ride to the airport cost us ¥620 per person and the bus stop turned out to be right at our hotel's back exit — very convenient. The whole ride to the airport took only 25 minutes.
We decided to err on the side of caution so we left the hotel at 11am. We ended up near our gate in the airport somewhere before 12 — everything is just too efficient inside the airport as well. Our flight was at 2:40pm, so we ended up having to wait for almost 3 hours for our plane.
We were flying from Osaka to Tokyo on Japan Airlines plane and they start boarding 15 minutes before take-off. And everything goes smoothly. From Tokyo we were flying AA non-stop to JFK and they started the boarding almost an hour before the take-off and everything was a complete mess.
The flight back itself was uneventful. The only thing that I wanted to mention about our flight from JFK to Tokyo was the fact that it took a really weird way to get there. The plane has flown all the way up to the frozen lakes over Canada, proceeded to fly over the north coast of Alaska (I could see all the frozen water below), then flew over the north coast of Russia and cut across Russia down to Japan passing by the western coast of Kamchatka. The flight back was much more along the lines that one would expect.
So as you can see our general day would start with us taking a train to a destination of our choice, then walking for 8 hours or so and then catching a train back to our hotel. Japanese public transportation system is very well developed. You can easily get anywhere you wish without ever needing a car or having to catch a taxi. And that's pretty much all I have to say about transportation.
P.S. Every single subway or JR station and each bullet train has a super clean restroom available for general public.
P.P.S. Another very useful resource is Hyperdia. You can look up all the schedules for all the JR trains for any date and time, along with the pricing. The search itself is flexible enough for one to select only the trains that the JR pass will work on.

People at high risk of Type 2 diabetes in Cumbria will start to benefit from the first ever national NHS diabetes prevention programme in the next few weeks.
In Cumbria almost one in eight people are currently at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, which can lead to an increased risk of health problems, including heart disease, kidney disease and serious eye problems.
Cumbria was one of 27 sites selected as part of the new national Healthier You: NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme, which will provide targeted support to help people avoid the disease.
Those referred will get tailored, personalised support to reduce their risk of Type 2 diabetes including education on healthy eating and lifestyle, help to lose weight and bespoke exercise programmes, all of which together have been proven to reduce the risk of developing the disease.
There are currently 2.8 million people with Type 2 diabetes in England with around 200,000 new diagnoses every year. While Type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented and is not linked to lifestyle, Type 2 diabetes is largely preventable through lifestyle changes.
Dr Craig Melrose, medical director at NHS England Cumbria and the North East, says:
"Type 2 diabetes is a serious but often preventable health condition.
"It's great that we are now able to offer this personalised, tailored programme for people at risk and offer support on improving their lifestyle habits, including getting more exercise, a better balanced diet and losing and keeping off excess weight.
"Helping people to take more control of their health will reduce the risks of developing the condition and help them live well for longer."

You know I grew up in the 80's, that moment when big shoulder pads, big earrings, head bands, leggings with Reeboks, Aqua Net and Acid wash jeans are the 'IN' thing!!! I love that era! I wish I could travel back in time to the the 80's. It was such a happy decade, don't you think so? Music was great also. I enjoyed the music from Expose, The Bangles, Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, The Cure, Cyndi Lauper, Boy George, Michael Jackson, Menudo and of course Madonna!!! Almost every kids at my age adored her. I remember, when I was young, I used to wear Madonna clothes and would dance ala Madonna with my cousins during reunions.
I still love her! When it comes to performance, especially during concerts, nothing beats her! I think she's still the best. C'mon, she's been in the business since when yet her energy on stage is still amazing. Every work she does is a masterpiece. Her music is still sold out world wide!
She's really good at re-inventing herself. Good news to all madonna fanatics out there! If you want to see her creative performances on stage, she's having a series of concert tours this year! You can catch her live in Paris, New York, New Jersey, Canada, Illinois, Las Vegas, Colorado and Florida! Check out all available Madonna Tickets online. This is going to be a sold out event so make sure you reserve your seats early. See you when I get there!!!

The conference, hosted by the English Department and the Lichtenberg Kolleg, with generous support from the Fritz Thyssen Foundation, the German Association of American Studies (DGfA), and the Universitätsbund Göttingen, will be held in the Historic Observatory from 27-29 June, 2013.
We will consider a wide array of phenomena and questions regarding the aesthetics and historical dynamics of obsolescence in North America: consumerism and commodity culture, object culture and theories of materiality and trash, architecture and urban culture, literature and the book market, technological development and media history, as well as the accelerated living conditions and short-lived e-technologies in the age of the digital. We consider obsolescence a governing principle of production and consumption that developed under modern capitalism and characterizes not only economic developments but cultural dynamics and values as well.
Our conference flyer is now available for download.

Looks like 10.195.2.2 is down?
Indeed 10.195.2.2 was down. Now is up and running.
Are the servers down again?
@DarkStarOne it happened all the time as Metasploitable or webgoat are opened to anyone. So yeah, expect that to be down from time to time. However you can take Professional account and move to the real deal.
Have fun.
I would like to know if the server is down or maybe it has an special hour to test it for the nfs example, I'm just waiting to know if that is an issue from the server or when could I use it.
Starting Nmap 7.11 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2017-10-26 02:24 CDTNote: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes, try -PnNmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 3.17 seconds
that's the code btw that the terminal drops.
10.195.2.2 was down. Now is up and running.
Does anyone is shutting down the server? Or why everytime I try it appears the same message.
btw, is there a server like the one 10.195.2.2 for the student plan? I mean, all the time on? just to know if I could do the test there instead of the 30 day trial.
No one shut it down. Is taken down. And this is not an automated message. The server is up and running. Many users are at skiddies level and have no idea what they are doing. Have fun.
Thanks, I just checked it right now, its working. thanks
Metasploitable2, Security Shepherd and WebGoat (soon) are for free accounts. Student plan goes beyond those well-known vulnerable by design servers.
Again I tried to scan NMAP on the next target 10.195.2.0/16, I already tested ping and it just does not return anything, my VPN is configured correctly, I do not know what it is, because neither my first attack, I am able to do - _-

Try rpcinfo -p 10.195.2.2 instead of rcpinfo -p 10.195.2.2
rpcinfo -p 10.195.2.2

Thanks a lot, man, I love you hahahaI'm from Brazil of the city of São Paulo and when someone helps, we say "man I love you", as a form of affection and at the same time a play haha
Love you back
Hello all, I tried to connect to 10.195.2.2 but it appears to be down. I cannot find any ips in the 10.195.2.0/24 range. Only in the 10.195.0.0/24 such as 10.195.0.1. None of them are the metasploitable one with nfs
