Mahara Hui attendees,
We would like to thank everyone who filled in our feedback questionnaire after Mahara Hui. Almost half of you gave us feedback, which was very helpful to us.
In general, the conference feedback was very positive. We are happy to have provided a good setting for talking about ePortfolios and meeting other community members. A big thank you goes to the presenters, who did a fabulous job sharing their stories, and all attendees for participating in the discussions.
The feedback showed that a number of people would have liked the option of attending workshops / hands-on sessions and not just presentations. Attendees enjoyed the hack fest but suggested that we could have made its purpose clearer by having a stream for developers and one for users, thus structuring the event more.
The feedback reinforced that Mahara Hui was a valuable event for the New Zealand and Australian Mahara community. We are therefore in the process of planning next year's event. We are also planning to set up a Kiwi Mahara User Group (MUG) in the meantime, so that community members can exchange ideas and get together online or in person before the next Mahara Hui.
We invite you to fill in our short questionnaire if you are interested in participating in a MUG and would like to be kept up to date about future activities.
We would also like to draw your attention to two upcoming ePortfolio events in Melbourne in the second half of the year (presentation proposals for both are due on 19 May 2014):
We look forward to seeing you at a future event and online soon.

The Parliamentary Budget Office of Georgia has a long history of existence, though as a result of institutional reforms implemented in 2014 the Parliamentary Budget Office of Georgia was formed as an independent structural unit within the system of the Parliament of Georgia whose main goal is to promote strengthening of Parliamentary oversight over state finance management through independent and impartial analyses of fiscal policy implemented by executive Government and hence, to promote transparent management of state finances and fiscal sustainability in medium and long-term period.
Legislative base regulating the PBO operation got substantially approximated with international practice through the implemented changes. Namely, PBO has shaped into an independent structural unit on the grounds of a Charter approved with Order N95/3 issued by the Chairman of the Parliament of Georgia on August 11, 2014. Guarantees of its independent operation have thus been assured. Organizational structure has been altered to match the functions commonly practiced internationally by independent fiscal institutions.
As a result of the reform the PBO includes three structural units: Unit of Budget Analysis; Unit of Macroeconomic Analysis and Tax Policy; Cost Estimates and Legislative Support Unit.
This report represents implemented activities carried out in 2014 after changes in legislative base corresponding to strategic goals and aims envisaged in the Strategic Development Plan of the PBO. Namely, implemented activities focuses on two core directions: increasing the effectiveness of the PBO work, establishing the parliamentary Budget Office as an independent fiscal institution in existing fiscal framework and institutional capacity.

The last thing Southampton needs is another 7-Eleven, according to Bob Grigo, who owns the South Fork Deli on County Road 39, which is directly across the street from a mostly vacant strip mall that might soon house another outpost of the popular convenience stores.
The owners of the building, Oyster Bay-based Leland Lane LLC, are asking the Southampton Town Zoning Board of Appeals for relief from a section of the town code that prohibits convenience stores like 7-Eleven in the highway business zoning district, where Leland Lane's building is situated.
The strip mall, which is 11,500 square feet and divided into five units, is located on 2.8 acres just west of the Hess gas station on County Road 39. The building has been vacant—except for a Sleepy's that is closed during the winter—since 2007, when it was built, according to a document filed in Town Hall. The developers want to lease about 3,200 square feet of the building to 7-Eleven, the only business that has shown a serious interest in occupying a space there.
One of several neighbors of the site contacted for comment, Mr. Grigo, who also owns Central Kitchen on County Road 39, said he fears that the proposed 7-Eleven would bring in a throng of day laborers similar to the one that gathers each morning at the 7-Eleven on North Sea Road, and would cause traffic jams and accidents.
"It's a big, beautiful building—I don't know why they want to downgrade the building with a 7-Eleven, which will only bring riffraff," said Mr. Grigo.
Leland Lane LLC, which has not been able to "realize a reasonable return" on their investment in the building, was hoping to have already leased the space to 7-Eleven by this month, according to documents filed with the town.
The owners of the building have tried to bring restaurants to the location, according to the documents on file in Town Hall. They have solicited Panera Bread Company, Applebee's Neighborhood Grill and Bar, Friendly's, and IHOP, according to the documents. To entice restaurants, the owners of the building went through the Southampton Town Planning Board to make improvements to the building that would help it better accommodate a restaurant, according to documents. Outback Restaurant came close to moving into the building but backed out because of the bad economy. The owners also tried to rent space to a number of cell phone retailers such as AT&T and T-Mobil.
Mr. Grigo said there others who are opposed to the impending 7-Eleven. And while George Kazdin, the owner of nearby Kazdin Pools, and the owner of La Pizziola, an Italian restaurant and pizzeria located in a nearby strip mall that is also pocked with vacant storefronts, declined to comment, Mark Amendolare, the general manager of Bellringer Security, located immediately east of the strip mall on County Road 39, said he is not in favor of the proposal, even though a 7-Eleven there might be convenient for some of his employees.
"If you're going to have a 7-Eleven, you're going to have day laborers, no matter what," Mr. Amendolare said. "It's certainly something that we wouldn't want, and it would have an impact on traffic and accidents."
The proposed convenience store would attract about 98 cars from those already traveling on County Road 39 during the peak hours of weekday mornings, according to a study completed by Thomas Mazzola of VHB Engineering, Surveying and Landscape Architecture, P.C. in Hauppauge. On weekday afternoons, that number is expected to climb to 110 trips in and out of the store. During the peak hours Saturday afternoon, 138 vehicles may drive in and out of the store, the study states.
The store might add 10 to 20 additional cars to traffic beyond those already on the four-lane highway during peak hours, the study states.

I never learned "writing" in school. I never took a class and I had no interest. Obvious right?
One time, I think it was in 7th grade, we had to learn how to diagram a sentence in English class. This was the worst experience. I actually tried to learn it at first, failed miserably, then became so scared I did the smart thing and gave up. Better to get an F not trying than an F while trying really hard. I'll die a happy man never having learned how to diagram a sentence.
I didn't read much growing up either. I convinced myself I couldn't find anything good to read, which was partially true, so I didn't. I was ignorant.
In the summer of 2009 I was homeless. I was going through my first mid-life crisis. I moved across the country to a place where I didn't know anyone. The only thing that made me feel better was reading. I started making lists of names of books mentioned in books I was already reading. The list ensured I always had something interesting to read, I solved my childhood problem. I began reading voraciously. The TV was thrown into the garbage. For the first time in my life I began to learn.
When I was in the ICU my sister set up a page for me on Caringbridge.org so she could update friends and family on my condition. She tired of the updates and wanted me to write it. I was hurting and on a lot of morphine because I broke every bone in my face. I couldn't hold a thought for more than 30 seconds. I couldn't write. Josie kept pestering me to write, she said it would be therapeutic for me.
Since reading had improved my life so much I figured I'd listen to my sister and try to write something. And I wanted all the relief I could get so I started typing. The first thing I remember writing was a post late at night. I was in pain and couldn't sleep so I took to Caringbridge to bitch and let out some weird energy. I started crying while I typed. I couldn't figure out the "Why?" of life.
Somehow I wrote a post called The Road To Recovery Is Not A Road. I have no idea where it came from but I liked it. The act of writing it made me feel better.
Writing is a powerful form of therapy. I can't prove it, but it is. If you experience devastation, which you will at some point, write about it.
And you don't have to be a "writer" for writing to help you deal with your problems, you just have to make the effort and put the words down and voila, you start to feel a little better.
Write about how the pain makes you feel. Write about what you're going through. Write about the best and worst case scenarios of your condition.
For some strange reason you'll feel better when you write it out. It'll be some raw stuff, it'll be ugly, you'll know you're doing the right thing when you feel embarrassed by what you write. This is also when then medicinal powers of writing are the most potent.
The writing process, putting your thoughts and emotions down, releases a bunch of negative energy. When you experience devastation your body shuts down and sends all the energy to your core to help you survive.
Once you are in Recovery you have to release all this energy or it spoils, causing damage. Writing is the release valve for spoiled negative energy. Let the bad out so the good can do its work.
Writing helps you deal with pain. It shifts your thoughts from your devastation to creating something. Writing helped me focus my thoughts then let go of them. It helped me move on.
I encourage you to write about painful events, even if you never share them with anyone. Hopefully you will share them with someone, anyone, but maybe you won't and that's ok. If you have written down how you felt when life was horrible, you can go back and read it when life is good and be grateful for how not terrible life can be.
Being grateful for what you do have is the medicine that will help you get over what you have lost.
If you know someone dealing with devastation, encourage them to write. Show them this post. If you have questions just ask.

PSS - private sound sculpture
interactive soundinstallation
the private sound sculptures project was developed around an interactive patch that transforms movement into sound. a special trigger video that projects colored lines on your white suit shows your physical shape. a video camera observes you in this light field and detects your movement. parameters like how much light and where on your suit get collected and send to an oscillator bank.
the private sound sculptures installation is not a music instrument and if it seems like one it´s not clear who is the key-player - the machine or the user.

Twas the Darkest Night by Sophie Avett
Elsa is a witch and not a happy one. Primary among the things making her unhappy is trying to keep the charm shop she inherited from her father running – a seemingly impossible task. Socialising is something she's largely written off, preferring cake.
But Marshall, her vampire tenant, may actually have the key to solving her money troubles – but it means going away with him to secure an important contract for his firm. Of course, alone together on a romantic Christmas scrooge (and them both dedicated scrooges), other priorities arise.
This book begins in a very intriguing fashion. We're presented in a full world with a vast amount of supernatural creatures, a city that is ruled and dominated by the supernatural, lots of monsters and magic and even a focus on some creatures we very rarely see in the genre – Trolls and Huldra. The world is described in a very intriguing fashion. My hopes were raised, this world really interested me and I wanted to see more.
We have a snarky cat, which is always fun, and a protagonist who is both fuller figured and quite happy to enjoy food, especially cake. I always like a protagonist who appreciates good cake.
Elsa herself had a somewhat mundane but neat little task – she has inherited her father's shop and wants to make it a success; there's also a very artfully suggested underlying issue she also has to deal with but is more teased than revealed as we burrow into the plot. I also really love Elsa the Troll and her little problem with greed.
I even like how Marshall offers to help – recognising her independence he offers a trade of services: her magical help in exchange for his advertising expertise. He offers a service that will help her shop rather than playing the White Knight and simply buying off her creditors. I was intrigued – this was looking good.
The problem is that this very promising setting is used to be a background for sex. Lots and lots and lots of kinky sex. Sex and S&M scenes consume most of the book and there are major problems with this.
By far far FAR and away the most severe of them is the problem of consent. The sexual relationship between Elsa and Marshall begins with rape. There's no ambiguity about this (the book has a "dubcon" and "forced seduction" written in the front – this isn't dubious – it's rape. Elsa is restrained, helpless, does not consent and is raped. There is no question of that. The rape is certainly not treated as rape, Elsa does not regard him as a rapist and there is generally a denial of the whole rape element here. If anything, she is annoyed that he has seized control and she is determined to enforce her own authority over the relationship she is now determined to continue and even pursue. She pursues a relationship with her rapist, the rape seems only to annoy her because of the power dynamics of the relationship rather than the actual violation itself.
From there we just have lots of really broken consent – basically she then decides her appropriate action will be to use magic and woo-woo to control and sexually assault (and, again, rape) him. This back and forth rape seems to be the establishment of their relationship and the assumption that everything from then on is actually consensual. To which I just repeatedly gaped at the book and occasionally just chanted "no no no no no" over and over again.
Even if we removed the rapes (because there's no real need to point out what is problematic about a relationship beginning with rape – it's self-evidence or should be), from then on we still do not have a very healthy depiction of an S&M relationship, especially with 2 strangers. There's no discussion of limits, consent, safety words, preferred activities or really any attempt from either partner to establish what the other wants and whether they agree to what is happening. There's no consent, there's no communication and it's generally far from an ideal BDSM relationship
Once we have that problem it seems pretty ridiculous to complain about anything else because, really, rape renders everything else somewhat moot. But I did find there was a problem with how the sex consumed the story and the world building, even if there wasn't any rape. Sex and sexual tension seems to take the place of expositioning this world, of the whole mission they've set out to do – even the conflict between Marshall and his ex feels undeveloped and tacked on so we can have some more angst from Elsa and an evil Ex trope. There's so much focus on the sex that nothing else really thrives
As far as sex goes in terms of a purely mechanical description and word use and flow it's actually really well written sex. Once the characters actually move towards consent (though I can't say they're ever excellent at establishing consent) it's really well written in terms of how-to-make-a-sex-scene-sexy. So there's that.
It's not that nothing else exists but sex – no we have Elsa's body image issues which are huge and linked very much to who and what she is and we have Marshall and his tragic childhood. Both of which I'd be more interested in if it didn't feel like more pulling from the main plot.

Government's roles in managing crisis situations
I believe that there are two major government's roles in managing crisis situations.
The first role is to take effective precautions. Prevention is everything in most circumstances and effective precautions can prevent crisis. For example, there are many cases that acts of terrorism were prevented while terrorists were preparing their attacks. Therefore government should raise people's awareness of the importance of precaution, and people should inform the police about suspicious activity. It makes a big difference to just be aware of suspicious people and objects, all the time.
The second role is to grasp the current circumstances correctly and take the proper measures because it depends on the situation how to deal with the crisis, and only the appropriate measures can minimize the number of casualties and alleviate the aftermath. Also, government should never either spread unnecessary fear or recklessly ignore the dangers, and tell people the truth, and people should never panic and help and cooperate with each other to recover from the crisis.
In conclusion, as I mentioned, I believe that government's roles in managing crisis situations are to take effective precautions, and to grasp the current circumstances correctly and take the proper measures.

Otoplasty - plastic surgery is to change the ears. This type of operation is carried out in case of violations of the structure of the ear. Surgical intervention affects cartilage and soft ear. Inherent problems of this kind (such as droopy ears) can cause psychological disorders, doctors recommend making otoplasty in childhood and adolescence. However, children up to four years of this type of operation is contraindicated, since the child pinna is not yet formed. As otoplasty can be done at any age restrictions on the operation of this type available.
Correction of auricles in Israel — is good opportunity to get rid of complexes and to have esthetic and psychological satisfaction.
Otoplastika happens two types:
- the esthetic — change of a shape of ears;
- the reconstructive — full or partial creation of an absent auricle.
The purpose of such operation is reduction of the size of large ears or approach of ears to the head. Surgical intervention is carried out in case ears are bulged, disproportionately large auricles, a lopoukhost, asymmetry of ears, and also deformation of auricles in case of traumas.
Before operation on correction of auricles the patient has to pass full inspection in Israel. Without fail it is necessary to report to the doctor about the transferred diseases and an allergy to drugs. Also diagnostics means carrying out researches of level of sugar in blood, duration of bleeding and time of coagulability of blood.
To adult patients operation on correction of auricles in Israel is performed under a local anesthesia, to children — under the general. Depending on a problem the surgeon chooses a method of carrying out operation.
In a case when cosmetic operation a skin section is performed becomes on a back surface of an auricle. Surplus of a cartilage is removed. If operation on lopoukhost elimination is performed, the surgeon forms an auricle of the correct form.
In case of reconstructive plasticity operation is performed in two stages:
- 1 stage — is formed a hypodermic receptacle which the prepared fragment of a costal cartilage keeps within.
- the 2nd stage — is carried out after several months if the cartilage successfully got accustomed. From a hypodermic bag, the cartilage covered with skin is released, the auricle is disconnected and formed. The surgeon cleans or makes an incision hryashchevy fabric, and then sews fabrics so that the auricle adjoined to a head surface more densely.
Duration of operation on correction of auricles in Israel about two hours on both ears. After operation the sterile gauze napkin is imposed, the tennis tape atop stretches. After operation hems aren't noticeable as are on a back surface of an auricle.
Next day after operation on correction of auricles in Israel remove a bandage which any more isn't required to be imposed. During two - three days after operations hypostases of fabrics and bruises which vanish within the next week are possible. If the patient has no strong diseases, operation on Otoplasty won't cause complications. Also such operations strongly improve appearance.

Cama Gwini on quitting music & why is she ready to make her comeback
Xhosa singer Cama Gwini – Siphokazi Buti – took a lengthy hiatus from the music business to focus on her life and family. Now she's back with a refreshing new outlook on life.

The singer surprised everyone when she re-emerged earlier this year by posting multiple videos of her singing acapella, smoking pipe and playing her upcoming new music on Facebook.
She had quietly vanished from public eye after releasing her rock/afro soul album Re-birth in 2012, and giving birth to her daughter the following year.
She is now excited about re-launching her career after taking the much needed break for some introspection.
"I feel good. I am very happy with myself and my life at the moment," she shares.
The singer seems to have ditched her afro-centric and futuristic look for a toned down modern but funky look. She spots a very short hair-doo that highlights her model-like facial features, and if you don't look closely you might miss her.
Watch the music video for Imvumi from her debut album, Zivile:
Cama Gwini reveals that she decided to take a break from the music after cutting ties with long-time label, Native Rhythms.
"After leaving the label I just wanted to take time off and live my life – be with friends, family and my daughter," she explains.
"I had so much fun that for a while I was not even thinking about music. I was living man!"
Despite what many might think, the singer says the split with Native Rhythms was amicable.
"Leaving the label was actually not a hard decision to make at the time. I just went to them and I told them that I just don't want to sing anymore.
"I honestly didn't know how to explain it. Something inside of me was just saying that I must step away for a moment and focus on other aspects of my life," she adds.
The multi SAMA (South African Music Awards) nominee was introduced to us in 2008 by Sipho Sithole, founder of Native Rhythms.
When she debuted with her single, Imvumi, she had the music world captivated with her eccentric nature and afro-centric look.
Often compared to her former label mate, Siphokazi, who was riding high on the mega-success of her debut album, Ubuntu Bam, Cama Gwini always had that unusualness that made some love her while leaving others slightly confused.
It is her daringness to be different that made her a trailblazer and made it impossible to compare her with any other artist.
Her last effort, Re-birth, saw her taking yet another brave risk and going full-on rock. She swapped her afro-centric look, beads and dreadlocks for a futuristic punk rock look.
While many critics praised album, some of her fans were once again left confused.
"When I went that direction I was responding to my artistic side that always seeks to explore new things because I always want to be an unpredictable artist.
"I am really proud of myself for taking that risk and being the first female Xhosa woman to do a rock album in Xhosa," she says.
"But now I look back and I think perhaps that the musical change was too soon for people to embrace. I feel like people were beginning to familiarise themselves with my work as a singer and just when they were growing into the music I drastically changed direction.
"Perhaps I was also a bit too ahead for the local music audience. However I am glad that no one stopped me from making that album.
"That experience made me stronger as a woman and as an artist."
Cama Gwini is a deeply spiritual being and her music has always carried powerful spiritual messages linked to ancestors.
It was not surprising that after she released her debut album, Zivile, she accepted her calling and became igqirha (traditional healer).
However, she feels like during the course of career she made many mistakes and may have taken her calling for granted.
"The journey has taught me that if you turn your back on your ancestors they also turn their backs on you.
They don't guide and protect you until you eventually learn the true purpose of your existence. That teaches you to remember who you are and where you come from," she shares.
"I had to accept some things that happened along the way and I had to accept that it is 'okay' to make mistakes. It's vital for an artist to not just understand the work they are doing but to also understand themselves as human beings first.
They say the beginning of wisdom is to understand yourself first before anything else.
She adds: "One major thing that I learned was that it is okay to be fully igqirha (traditional healer), even as an artist working in the music business.
I understand that the talent I have was given to me by my ancestors for a purpose, and I must stay true to that purpose."
The singer recalls feeling so low and having to turn to her spiritual mentor for guidance. Their conversations led her to yet another powerful awakening. "He said a lot of things that woke up me up and it made me exercise the power that I have as a human being, the power that my ancestors and God gave me.
"I feel so different. I feel strong. And I feel so much powerful," she says.
"There is something above me, I can't touch it but it's always with me – I can communicate with it and it opens me up to the power that has always existed within me."
Now she is ready to release her much anticipated fourth album, titled Uzanemvulakazi, as an independent artist. She will be releasing the first single, Ubomi Yimpi, soon, which she cites as a powerful track that deeply personal to her.
"The reason why the song is important to me is because it spoke to me in a major way and I am hoping it will do the same to other people," she explains.
"I chose it as a first single because I want people to know exactly what I was feeling when I was away.
I was thinking about my followers the whole time and I still want to inspire them. And I want them to know that life is a battle and we must continue to fight because we will not conquer anything by just chilling."
Watch the music video for "Uphind'Ubuye" from Cama Gwini's last album:
For the album, she recruited young producers from Soweto and the result is a fresh sound. She credits one of the producers, Lebo, for inspiring her to start making music again.
She met the producer in 2015 when he gave her a cd with beats.
She never got around listening to it, but by chance she recently stumbled upon the CD and instantly fell in-love with the beats. "I now believe that at the time he gave me those beats I was not ready for that sound. But now it is exactly the sound that fits where I am artistically."
Cama Gwini also reveals that she feels no pressure about returning to the ever-evolving music industry. All the singer wants to do is to share her message again.
"It is my belief that if you hold an important message you should never be afraid to share it with the world. That message will always fall into the hands of whoever is willing or ready to receive it.
She concludes:"I am not sacred and I don't feel pressure to be relevant. I am just coming back and I am dusting my crown and wearing it again without shaking."

Press release
Third SustainaBul prize in a row for Wageningen University
Wageningen University has won the SustainaBul award for the third time in a row. The award is presented to the most sustainable knowledge institute (university or university of applied sciences) in the Netherlands.
This is the fourth time the SustainaBul is awarded since its establishment by the network of local student organizations Morgen. The universities and universities of applied sciences taking part are assessed by students on the basis of a questionnaire delving into various sustainability criteria. The questionnaire does not only focus on water consumption, refuse processing and CO2 emissions, but also on student and staff involvement and the transparency of communication about sustainability policy.
From sustainability to CSR
Fennet van de Wetering, Sustainability Coordinator at Wageningen UR, is delighted with the result: "Every year, we make a conscious effort to ensure that our operational management becomes more sustainable. This ranges from an incentive energy programme to the use of recyclable coffee beakers. As a result, sustainability is not just the responsibility of Facilities and Services, but a matter for the entire organisation. We are progressing from sustainability to Corporate Social Responsibility on every front. Take our approach to scientific integrity and the aim to be energy-neutral by 2030, for example."

Bremerhaven together with Bremen forms a state with the largest fishing port in Germany – today there are many fish restaurants and shops in a forming fish packing hall. The modern city center is dominated by a ship-shaped skyscraper. Another very interesting building is the German Emigrants Center: during the 19th century millions of Germans emigrated from Bremerhaven.

Sharp Ends by Joe Abercrombie
Sharp Ends combines previously published, award-winning tales with exclusive new short stories. Violence explodes, treachery abounds, and the words are as deadly as the weapons in the rogue's gallery of side-shows, back-stories, and sharp endings from the world of the First Law.
From the world of the First Law comes an anthology of short stories following various characters, some of whom are old friends and others who are completely new.
This is definitely a different approach to Abercrombie's usual multi-book stories for sure, most of the stories run between 20 and 30 pages, and take place over a period of many years. There are references to the First Law books in there (and some of the characters you'll hopefully recognise), but there's plenty new to explore and enjoy.
There are 13 stories in total – generally entertaining though, it pains me to say, some did fall a little flat. Abercrombie excels when he has hundreds of pages, many characters and interweaving storylines to play with, and unfortunately the short story format doesn't allow him to flex his storyteller muscles as much as I'm used to.
My favourite stories by far were those feature Shevedieh and Javre, Lioness of Hoskopp – of which there are 5. However, I do not understand the character of Carcolf; I got why she had to be there for plot reasons, but it is the laziest character use/development I have seen at Abercrombie's hands.
Hell was a particular favourite of mine – you're thrown straight in, not told what is going on, and you feel the character's confusion and panic build to a fantastic crescendo. The others were at best interesting snippets (such as A Beautiful Bastard starring the ever loveable Glokta) and only served to make me want to reread Abercrombie's original First Law trilogy. One or two stories did fall flat, and I'm not entirely sure of the reason. Getting a reader invested enough in a character to care within the confines of 30 pages is a tough job for any writer, and occasionally the author does fail. Unfortunately these stories come across as filler, and I did wonder at points if this was still Abercrombie or instead a joint effort with another author.
Essentially it comes down to this - as a massive Abercrombie and First Law fan, I generally enjoyed the book. If you are neither of these, Sharp Ends may put you off reading more Abercrombie altogether.
That isn't to say that this is a bad anthology – on the contrary, the majority of it is as amusing, bloody and fast-paced as Abercrombie's other works. You may just need to forgive him on a couple of the stories. I would recommend reading his First Law trilogy first however.

The scheduling features of this plugin are only available in the Professional release. The Core release does need the plugin to be enabled for the SEO and Link Tools features to work.
The "System - Admin Tools" plugin, or
plg_admintools for short, has a dual role for the
Professional release of Admin Tools. On one hand it is necessary for the
correct operation of the Web Application Firewall and URL Redirections
features of Admin Tools. On the other hand it allows you to schedule
various aspects of your site's maintenance.
You can access the plugin's configuration parameters by going to your back-end's System - Admin Tools on the list and click on it. The standard Joomla! plug-in configuration page opens., menu item. Then find the item
On the left-hand side of the administrator area you can find the standard Joomla! controls. First, make sure that Enabled is set to Yes. Then, in order for the plugin to be published in the correct order, select 0 - First from the Order drop-down list.
The plugin options is where all the important functionality can be scheduled. You have the following options:
When enabled (default) the Rescue Mode feature is enabled, allowing Super Users with blocked IPs to request a temporary Rescue URL which lets them log into the site and lift the block. We recommend leaving this feature enabled unless you know what you are doing. See the Rescue Mode section for more information.
You will only receive the email to activate Rescue Mode if your IP is being blocked by Admin Tools. If your IP is NOT blocked by Admin Tools you will NOT receive any email. This is by design. It doesn't make sense to temporarily unblock yourself with Rescue Mode when you are not blocked!
How long is the Rescue Mode active. This controls two things:
The maximum amount of time between requesting a Rescue URL and visiting it.
The maximum amount of time between visiting the Rescue URL and the end of Rescue Mode.
We recommend leaving this setting to 15 minutes. Lower values tend to be very impractical.
Admin Tools will send you emails to notify you of security
exceptions when you enter an email address in WAF Configuration.
By default, the current user's language (or your site's default
language, if no user is currently logged in) is being loaded,
which means that these emails will be sent out in this language.
If you have a multilingual website it means that you may receive
an email in any language available in your site. This can lead to
confusion and makes it nigh impossible to set up any email
filters. Therefore we give you this option. You can enter the
language tag of the language in which you wish those security
exception emails to be sent. For example, typing
en-GB in this field will cause all emails to be
sent out in English. If left blank (default) the current language
loaded by Joomla! will be used.
When enabled, the Session Optimizer will be scheduled to run automatically. This feature will repair and optimize Joomla!'s sessions table.
How often to run the Session Optimizer feature, in minutes
When enabled, the Session Cleaner will be scheduled to run automatically. This feature will purge (completely empty) and optimize Joomla!'s sessions table. Watch out! This will automatically log all users out of your site! You should only use it on sites where you don't expect to have logged in users at all, e.g. a company presentation site.
How often to run the Session Cleaner feature, in minutes
When enabled, the Cache Cleaner will be scheduled to run automatically. This feature will try to purge (completely empty) Joomla!'s cache. This is not possible on occasions, especially if you are using a cache adapter which doesn't support purging.
How often to run the Cache Cleaner feature, in minutes
When enabled, the Cache Auto-expiration will be scheduled to run automatically. This feature will try to expire and delete stale items in Joomla!'s cache. Unlike the Joomla! built-in feature, it will try to run this operation across all caches. This is not possible on occasions, especially if you are using a cache adapter which doesn't support automatic expiration control.
How often to run the Cache Auto-expiration feature, in minutes
When this option is enabled, the Admin Tools plugin will automatically delete inactive users, i.e. users who registered on the site but never logged in. On each page load, up to five inactive users will be deleted, to avoid slowing down your site. There are four different options:
Disables this feature
Users who have never activated their account will be removed. If they have activated their account they will not be removed.
Users who have activated their account but never logged in will be removed. If they haven't activated their account yet, they will not be removed.
Any user who hasn't logged in for the number of days specified in the next option will be removed from the site, no matter if he has activated his account or not.
How many days must elapse between the registration date of an inactive user and its deletion. For example, if this option is set to 7 then if a user registers on your site on the 1st of the month and has not logged in at least once by the eighth of the month, his user account will be removed.
Specify the maximum number of entries to keep in the security exceptions log. Excess records will be deleted. Use 0 to turn off this feature and keep all security exceptions log entries (recommended).
If you have thousands of old entries it will take a while for Admin Tools to remove all of the old entries. Old records are deleted in 100 record batches on each page load for performance reasons.
All expiration options are best-effort scheduled. This means that they will try to run every X minutes, but only as long as there is visitor traffic to trigger them. In any other case they will defer their execution for when there is visitor traffic.

Orientation Dinner
Breathwork offers a very safe, sacred space to release trauma, activate the lifeforce, experience
ecstasy and awaken loving consciousness. It returns us to a state of wholeness. The focus will be
on your experience teaching you how you create and destroy, how you expand and contract and how
to come home to yourself. It teaches you to let go into the natural state of Being. The maps we
will be using apply to all experiential modalities, not just breathwork.
The breathwork retreat is being offered as a two or three day retreat with accommodations and
food priced separately so that you can design the experience you need. Karma Yoga, the waking
meditation to embrace the Beloved within, will be offered before and after the retreat. We will
joyfully tend this home and land, focussing on building the labyrinth. If you wish, bring a
stone or crystal to anchor your presence with the Elementals of the forest.
An additional training will comprise a small intimate group, beginning Thursday afternoon and
finishing after the retreat on Sunday, allowing lots of personal attention and very deep
exploration of the methodologies behind your creation matrixes. There will be ongoing conversations
and support for the group as well as resources and creative homework. I anticipate this will
be the first of a 2 year design that is suitable for anyone wanting to release themselves
from suffering and for people who work with clients and want to use deep transformational processes.

(TAP) – A small cabinet meeting was held Wednesday in Dar Dhiafa, Carthage, under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Youssef Chahed, on the preparations for the month of Ramadan, in terms of supply of commodities.
The meeting took note of the indicators relating to the supply of commodity markets during the Holy month, particularly the most consumed products, such as white and red meat, milk and milk products, eggs, vegetables and fruits ... This shows an improvement in domestic production and the buffer stock in most commodities, which will help cover the needs of consumption during this period of rising demand.
On this occasion, the cabinet meeting underlined the importance of getting more control over the coordination between the various parties concerned, recommending that the economic control teams be stepped up to start their activity, starting from this week and until month of Ramadan.
He also called for parallel monitoring of the evolution of market indicators, the transparency of transactions and dealing with speculation.
At the end of the meeting, Trade Minister Omar El Behi, affirmed that "the supply of the market during the month of Ramadan will be normal and in sufficient quantities, in particular for the products of large consumption".
He also said that "stocks of 30 million liters of milk and 46 million eggs have been created and that quantities of red meat will be imported weekly to meet the needs of the market during this month".
Regarding white meat, El Behi assured "that there will be a production of 11 thousand tonnes of poultry per month, throughout the summer season".
Regarding vegetables, the minister stressed that "in addition to the national production, 5 thousand tonnes of potatoes were imported by the Office of Commerce of Tunisia (OCT) and that regulatory stocks will be constituted in June".
For fruits, the minister pointed out that "the summer fruits will be available in sufficient quantities and that a programme has been set up with the GIFruits (Interprofessional Fruit Group) to provide quantities of dates at studied prices. Olive oil quantities will also be provided, at studied prices, in partnership with the National Office of Oil and the Ministry of Agriculture, Water Resources and Fisheries ".
El Behi also said that "economic control campaigns have started from this week and will continue crescendo throughout the month of Ramadan to ensure price compliance."

The game they played throughout the movie, and what was used to beat the Bot at the final stage, was a card game called Hanafuda, with the phrase that often said "Koi Koi". I had no idea such game exist. I knew about Karuta, the hiragana games that's played in new year's...
The Tsundere Boys Karuta version. Or Tsundere moe version. Or Queens Blade version. I played them when I first learned Japanese. Whoah, I wish these cards existed back then XD So interesting!
But! After some googling, turned out that Nintendo, that's apparently been around since 1889! *gasp* produced card games, oh wait, produces! The Hanafuda cards, they still sell it till now! Aaaa... That's why there were no PSP, because even the card game and DSi are all Nintendo XD (Maybe)
That made me want to learn and get this card game. Some rules and online version of the game, though I had no idea and just keep on clicking and losing o_o;;
There's even a Hello Kitty version of Hanafuda (and Disney as well)!

HONG KONG (REUTERS) - State-owned Postal Savings Bank of China (PSBC), the country's largest bank by number of branches, has filed for a Hong Kong IPO seeking to raise up to US$10 billion (S$13.5 billion), IFR reported on Thursday.
The filing of the preliminary initial public offering (IPO) prospectus sets in motion what is set to be the world's biggest new listing in about two years and would value the bank at about US$50 billion, the report said.
The listing could happen as early as September, IFR, a Thomson Reuters publication IFR, said, citing sources close to the deal.
The IPO is targeting to raise between US$7 billion and US$10 billion, the report said. A spokesman for PSBC, declined an immediate comment on the filing.
If the IPO hits its target, it would be the biggest market debut since Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding's record US$25-billion listing in September 2014.

What Season It Doc?
Rabbit season! Duck Season! Rabbit season… Elmer Fudd is so confused as Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny argue it out while re-adjusting which way the befuddled hunter is pointing his shotgun.
Finally in desperation Elmer cries out to a passing game warden… "gee Mr. Warden what season is it really?" The warden looks sternly at Elmer and says "Why everybody knows it's baseball season!"
And so it is.
It may feel a lot like winter here in Michigan but baseball season it is. The tigers will start on the road but it will still be brutal on the diamond for their home opener this Friday against the ever-hated Yankees. As a wise man once told me, "playing baseball in Michigan in April is stupid."
Again, and so it is.

text: 3 Scent Secrets to Lure Rutting Bucks Randy Hynes - November 17, 2015 We often worry about leaving as little scent behind as possible, but that shouldn't always be the case. With nearly 300-million olfactory receptors, whitetail deer are known to possess an extraordinary sense of smell. As hunters, we may not comprehend every physiological and biological detail behind this innate sense, but we do understand that a whitetail can smell far better than we can.A whitetail's ability to smell plays a crucial roll in social behavior and in the overall process of reproduction. When the rut gets underway and a whitetail buck makes a scrape, he is leaving behind both visual and olfactory cues. Scent from the interdigital glands, preorbital glands, forehead gland, or tarsal glands, is left on the ground and on the 'licking branch' to communicate a myriad of information to the local deer herd.While man might be proficient at deciphering the various languages of homo sapiens, deer biologists are still trying to figure out the complexity of communication integrated into the secretions and smells that come from the glands of a whitetail. As a well-respected deer biologist once stated, "Simply through the sense of smell, deer can recognize other deer, learn about the other deer's sex, dominance status, reproductive state, and so on." To the whitetail, scent is language all of its own. For decades whitetail hunters have utilized buck and doe urine, and various other scents, to play on a whitetail buck's territorial, feeding and breeding instincts. It's no secret that whitetail will respond to strategically placed scents that mimic those left behind by ordinary whitetail behavior. Empirical evidence suggests that by replicating some form of whitetail scent, whether doe or buck, the hunter can increase the odds of success. Something as simple as a chalk line could make the difference when chasing a Booner. Walk The Chalk LineAnyone familiar with carpentry has undoubtedly used a chalk box. But did you know the chalk box is also a handy gadget for fooling a rutting whitetail? Most hunters are familiar with the drag rag, a tactic where the hunter drags a piece of cloth soaked in doe urine behind him, in order to mimic the scent left by a hot doe. This trick has been successfully used for years, but now there's a new convenient twist.Originally the drag rag was a short piece of cordage drug behind the hunter, which left a scent trail for a buck to follow. But, what if you want to make more than one scent trail, limit your human scent or don't want to disrupt the area around your setup?By simply adding a little weight to the end of the chalk box string, fastening some cotton swabs, and applying fresh doe in heat and/or buck lure to the swabs, you can unwind the string from the chalk box and toss it in the direction you want to make a scent trail. When finished, simply wind up the string, weight and swabs — a much simpler way to leave a scent trail for a buck to follow. I've also heard of hunters who have replaced the nylon string with cotton and applied doe in heat directly to the string while it's inside the chalk box. By adding a little weight the string can be let out behind you, then retrieved once you reach your stand. While winding the string back in the chalk box the odor absorbing cotton string will have left a fresh scent trail that hopefully a rutting buck will follow.Personally, I've replaced the factory chalk box 'hook' with a small carabineer. To make a scent trail I simply fasten two unscented tampons by tying a loop in the string of each. One tampon is then scented with doe in heat and the other with buck urine. Once I've laid down the scent trail, hoping to mimic a buck following a doe, I'll leave the tampons where the odor can drift downwind.While some might not like the idea of another item to carry or mess with on the way to the stand, I've found that a properly placed scent trail will usually draw a buck or doe to investigate further. Especially when hunting with my boys, a scent trail can often provide a few more seconds to make the shot and helps position deer a little closer to my stand.While the chalk box does makes for convenient retrieval and storage of string, be sure to store the chalk box in a sealed container or Ziplock bag. This will ensure your gear won't smell like a rutting whitetail. Make your hike to the treestand more productive by dropping some scent for an excitable buck. Boots and TreesBoth out of curiosity and sexual drive, a rutting buck will travel a considerable distance to sniff out a doe. But for the hunter to quickly and strategically place scent that will attract a rut-crazed buck is not always convenient. Such as, it's difficult to use a drag rag when hunting in an area that is extremely thick and brushy.One of my favorite methods of scent placement is to use Conquest Scents, EverCalm - Deer Herd Stick and VS-1 - Estrus Whitetail Stick on the bottom of my hunting boots. By placing the smell of deer on the sole and toe of my boots, I'm accomplishing two things: I'm leaving a scent trail and I'm masking human odor.If hunting an area where you can create a scent cone, Conquest Scents, EverCalm and VS-1 work extremely well. By placing EverCalm or VS-1 on trees and limbs upwind of a stand site, these handy sticks will make quick work of making your area smell like deer. Repeatedly, I've had a suspicious long-nose doe catch a whiff of EverCalm and go on with her business.Another unique use for EverCalm and VS-1 is once in your stand, remove the lid of either scent and simply let it smell up your entire hunting area. Both EverCalm and VS-1 come in a deodorant style, re-sealable container. Due to their unique wax composition, neither scent will spill, leak or freeze.Remember that deer will come to the smell of their kind, so if you place EverCalm where an approaching deer thinks another deer should be, and as they approach they don't see a deer, they'll quickly figure out something is wrong. This is a mistake I learned the hard way.But if you place the scent on trees or branches upwind of your stand location, deer are more likely to move past you towards the source of the smell — offering you a shot — rather than them stopping 50-yards away staring in your direction. Like a whitetail, use your surroundings when spreading scent. Rope and TamponsWe've already mentioned tampons, but if you're not secure in your manhood, than ignore this next tip. For the rest of you, I promise it will work.Not only do tampons make great absorbents for your drag rag, they also make exceptional scent wicks. They are sterile, come unscented and can hold a considerable amount of deer urine. Simply apply the scent or deer urine to the tampon and use it's handy-dandy string to tie it in place.Cotton rope will also hold a considerable amount of scent and has been used by some of the most successful whitetail hunters. By applying scent to a frayed end of the rope, the 'wicking' action will disperse the scent in the general area. One inch diameter rope, or larger, can also be hung above a scrape and can serve for both a 'licking branch' and scent wick.When placing scent wicks, always consider the wind direction and try to hang them so approaching deer will go past your stand site and not stop short of it. Additionally, be sure to use your wind checker to see how thermals and wind will carry the smell of any scent to an approaching deer.Knowing you fooled a whitetail's nose and lured him into shooting range only adds to the depth of satisfaction that comes when hunting allusive whitetail.

April 2017
Dear Praying Friends,
He was a long serving police officer, faithful husband and godly father. As if that weren't enough for the average man, he also sacrificed his hard earned money to financially support missionaries all across the world and was a tenacious prayer warrior on their behalf. Over the years, he wrote us many notes asking for updates on people and situations we had mentioned in our monthly prayer letters. We knew we had a faithful prayer warrior in Thomas Holroyd! But on Friday, April 14, at 6:22 pm, the Lord decided this super hero of a man had finished his course, had kept the faith and was ready to receive his rewards.
We grieve for his children who have lost their beloved father, we grieve for the many missionaries (including us) who were the recipients of his faithful financial and prayer support down through the years. He may not have been well known outside of his family and hometown, yet he is intimately known by His Savior and Lord. Only eternity will reveal what his financial sacrifices and labors in prayer accomplished all across the world. I am sure he is meeting folks right now that he was instrumental in seeing saved!
Will you volunteer to take his place? Will you ask God to use you as He did Thomas Holroyd? Will you kneel before your Creator and Savior and willingly commit all He has given you to reach untold millions in this world? Life is so short and we only have the time and resources God gives us to make an eternal difference. Thomas Holroyd understood this and invested in eternal treasures. Will you?
Praising God for prayer warriors,
Mark Hale

Summer Fishing Report
water temp 85
2.22 high
water is very clear
Walleye are making a move to the dinner patterns a little sooner than normal. walleye are biting on crawlers with a 1/8 oz jigs. also hitting on bottom bouncers. i could see a little thermocline forming in 22 for of water, but the walleye have been in 15 to 18 foot. it's been a little harder the last couple days but they will get better soon
Catfish are biting great on worms on points. You can actually go to main Lake points and fish for them or act like your walleye fishing and just go cast around the points and you'll catch plenty of catfish while you're looking for the walleye. They seem to be a little shallower than the walleye I've been catching so try to fish in 10 to 12 foot and then back out
The crappie are mainly suspended in the coves still. Pulling a flicker Shad or a bandit in the middle of the coves should produce some good fish however I have started catching a few on brush piles also in 15 to 18 foot of water. As the thermocline develops a little stronger they should all move the brush piles and jigs or minnows will be your best bet.
Bass have been biting pretty good on Plastics and jigs on points as well as some topwater baits in the early morning and evenings. been catching a lot of small mouth in the mile long bridge to the dam area. Most of the smallest have been coming while I've been walleye fishing. if you're trying to concentrate on then throw some grubs or small Plastics in the chunky Rock area on points in you should do good.
For those of you that like to white bass fish in the summer they have been biting excellent but I am not much of a white bass fisherman the people I have been talking to that white bass fish. I've been picking them up on points if and when the wind ever blows in about 20 foot of water suspended. Those people that are concentrating on white bass said they've been picking up a limits
As the water continues to warm up the bass will be moving to the brush piles and deeper structure with the crappie and walleye
Tight lines!!

A lot has been made recently about thoroughbred aftercare and how it can be paid for; of all the equine "fields" the far and away leader for most expensive is the racing industry and all associated costs are equally as large. Millions are spent on wagering, auctions, races, and ticket sales with the horses that fall through the cracks often not seeing a dime of their efforts when it comes to retiring.
My proposal is a "Half a Percent" tax on ALL activities pertaining to racing: purchases/sales at auctions, tickets for big racing days or weekends, off of any wagering winnings over $1,000, and on stallion profits passed thirty mares covered.
This "half a percent" tax would create a pool of money intended only for horses that need to be rehomed outside of racing as OTTBs either for sport/pleasure riding or as pasture pals. A governing board would be established to keep track of all the horses that would be "unregistered" from the sport and to whom they would be going; money would only be dispursed if proper documentation can be provided of good living conditions and the ability to care for the horse long term can be established. This information will all be made public and easy to access for anyone wanting to find the information.
In order to receive the requested funds (the amount can be a pre-established cost for healthy horses) long-term intent to keep the horse must also be present. This is intended to help individuals rehabilitate and retrain their OTTB a little easier since the average cost to completely prepare a thoroughbred for starting a new career is roughly $3,000 (if they're healthy).
Prior TAA registered rescues and charities will be exempt from paperwork since they undergo strict guidelines to receive the accreditation from the mentioned TAA (Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance) anyway.
The only person with access to these immediate funds will be the manager of the bank(s) the money is streamed in to and only they will be issuing the checks with a signature from the Head of the Board before it is sent to the new, proud OTTB owner.
Anyone with a known history of shipping or selling to slaughter is automatically denied funds, and will instead be provided a list of organizations that will gladly take their horse into the program and find him a good home with no cost to the "owner" or "trainer".
This is only a jumble of thoughts right now, but would this be something that would appeal to you: the readers, the owners, the trainers, the OTTB rescues, and the fans? Let me know in the poll below and send it on to your friends. I'm interested to see how this is received.
