At E3 2014, it was announced that the original Bayonetta would come packaged with Bayonetta 2 on the Wii U this October. The E3 trailer showcased series' heroine in various costumes from classic Nintendo franchises, including Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Metriod. However, according to the game's director, Isao Negishi, Bayonetta on Wii U will feature even more content than the original. On the Platinum Games official blog, Negishi showed off some new gameplay, as well as outlined the various costumes and their attributes.
Negishi elaborated on each new Nintendo-themed costume shown off so far. The Princess Peach costume replaces Bayonetta's hair attacks with the punches and kicks of Bowser, who can even be summoned during some climax scenes. This outfit also seems to replace the regular currency of the game with the classic coins from Super Mario Bros. When Bayonetta wears Link's costume, she can wield the Master Sword by equipping the Shuraba. The Master Sword will also form for the massive Wicked Weaves attack. Sound effects from A Link to the Past will also play at certain points in the game. Finally, Bayonetta's Samus outfit from the original Metriod will give players the ability to flip Samus' visor up and down during cutscenes, allowing for some comedic moments like the one featured in the reveal trailer.
It should be worth noting that Bayonetta's original director, Hideki Kamiya, oversaw and approved every single costume in the game. Negishi has also stated that there are even more new extras found in this enhanced version of the game, and that the game could be considered a "Special Edition." Bayonetta 2 is set to come out exclusively on Wii U this October.

How Can a Contactor Save Money When Designing a Panel?
Engineering labor. Installation labor. Big power supplies. Large transformers. Huge panels. An immense amount of energy to power electronics.
As you consider this list, is the price tag of your panel inflating when you would rather be spending that money somewhere else?
When you think of cutting cost, your mind probably jumps to things like reducing wiring, or faster installation and testing. Most likely "contactors" is not the first thought that crosses your mind when trying to save money.
However, modern contactors are now designed to offer cost reduction that you should be considering when trying to cut cost for your panel. But how exactly can a contactor save you money? There are a number of features that are engineered into modern contactors to optimize your budget.
Universal Coil
The first feature that modern contactors offer is a wide-range electronic, universal coil. Traditionally, contactors had a coil that was for either AC or DC power.
In order to design a panel, you would need to search through a multitude of part numbers of a product to find the coil that fit your application's specific needs. For every contactor needed, you would need to spend valuable time to examine numerous coils with different AC or DC offerings, hertz ranges, and voltage ranges.
Now, modern contactors have moved away from using traditional coils that were either for AC or DC operation. New, wide-range electronic, universal coils have both AC and DC power capabilities in one coil. These coils are also capable of handling larger voltage ranges.
This means that one new coil in modern contactors can cover the power and voltage ranges of numerous traditional coils. Instead of searching through a multitude of part numbers to find the product that fits your specification, you only need to look at a few options that cover the traditional options, saving design time and cost of labor.
Not only do the new coils reduce part numbers, they also have lower coil consumption than traditional coils. In fact, modern contactors can have an average of 40% reduction in power requirements compared to legacy contactors. Over time, and especially with numerous contactors, this can result in large cost savings in power.
Since the wide-range universal electronic coils require less energy consumption, other electronics supporting the contactor can also be reduced for cost savings. For example, the control transformer and power supply can be downsized because a large control transformer and large power supply are no longer needed to support the energy efficient coil.
Small Size and Light Weight
The second cost-saving feature of modern contactors is their small size and light weight when compared to legacy contactors. Modern contactors are an average of 25% smaller in width than legacy products and 50% lighter in weight. This size reduction allows for significant savings in panel space, not only from the contactor, but also from the smaller control transformer and power supply that can now accompany the contactor.
With the reduction in size, smaller panels can be used resulting in large cost savings. Additionally, lighter contactors allow for easier, less expensive shipping and installation. Instead of using cranes and large machines to move bulky contactors, the smaller and lighter contactors can be moved and installed with little hassle.
Expanded Certifications
The third feature of modern contactors is expanded certifications that allow the same product to be certified across the globe. Traditionally when buying a contractor, you would have to take the time to find out which product was certified in certain regions of the world.
One product may have been certified in one region, but not globally, so different products would need to be used for different regions of the world. Now, modern contactors are certified globally, ensuring simplified product selection that can save you labor cost in the design stage of choosing a contactor.
Want to cut costs in your panel? Next time you are thinking of ways to reduce your costs, consider the small changes you can make with modern contactors that can lead to big cost savings in labor, space, and energy over time.

Selling the Home
Selling your home is often the easiest solution when you divorce. It usually offers a very neat division, with each spouse walking away with a share of the equity. You each can then use this money to begin a new life. However, this may not be a quick fix, depending on the housing market. If it takes a while to find a buyer, you'll have to address who gets to live in the house until it sells, and who is going to be responsible for the mortgage and the maintenance costs until that time.
A buyout is sometimes an option, but one spouse must usually have sufficient income to afford increased mortgage payments. Generally, the spouse keeping the home would refinance the existing mortgage, plus an additional amount to cover his ex's share of the equity. For example, if your home appraises for $350,000 and if the existing mortgage against it is $300,000, you would have to refinance for $325,000: $300,000 to convert the existing mortgage into your name, plus your spouse's $25,000 equity share. Depending on the interest rate, your monthly mortgage payment would probably increase. Additionally, lenders are not always willing to do cash-out refinances in some circumstances. If your home is worth $350,000, a $325,000 mortgage represents about 93 percent of its value. Not all lenders will finance mortgages for more than 80 percent of the home's value, and those that do require private mortgage insurance in case you default on the monthly payments.
Exchange of Assets
If you run into a problem refinancing for more than the amount of your existing mortgage, you can also trade off other assets to achieve an equal division of your home's equity. For example, you may not be able to reasonably afford the increased mortgage payments associated with a $325,000 mortgage, or you may not qualify for a $325,000 mortgage, but you can manage a refinance of the original $300,000 loan. In this case, instead of buying out your spouse's equity interest, you could relinquish a different asset worth $25,000 instead, such as a larger portion of your retirement benefits or a cash or investment account of equal value.
Another option is to keep the home, but this usually only works if you and your spouse maintain a very amicable relationship. If the real estate market is bad and you want to ride it out before you list your home for sale, you might consider "nesting." You and your spouse can essentially be roommates, provided you can peacefully co-exist. This works best on a temporary basis and when your home is large enough that each of you can stake out your own space. Couples sometimes use a variation of this arrangement when they have children. The children live in the home full time, and you and your ex each reside there with them for a week or a month at a time so they don't have to move. For example, Mom might live in the home in January, then she would move out and Dad would move in with the children for the month of February. This is usually a very expensive option, however, because each parent would have to be able to afford half the expenses of the marital home, plus maintain the rent or a mortgage on another home of their own.


text: Gucci's Pre-Fall 2017 campaign is full of color and I am loving it. Fronting the whole rose appliqué trend, which I'm itching to DIY, I have to say the theme is perfect. The focus was on the pirit of England's underground Northern Soul movement of the '60s. It was also inspired by the great Malian photographer Malick Sidibé, who famously documented 1960s youth culture in his hometown of Bamako. As a big fan of details, I'm feeling the long nails, gaudy jewelry, and funky backgrounds of the shots. I checked out some of Sidibé's photos and Gucci did a stand up job. I literally feel as though we were sent back in time to experience this flashy period in 2017. To be honest, it reminds me of my parents and the photos they took back in the day. Straight fire and they were spot on with the casting, those models look plucked directly from that era. I read some interesting articles about the campaign and for a different perspective on the campaign, check out this great article here on Business of Fashion. Final Word: Feeling the digs, faces, and overall tone of this diversely hued campaign. Soul power!

What To Do When Money Is Tight And A Loan Payment Is Coming Up
Getting a personal loan can help you with the ability to pay off a big purchase or take care of a major issue that has happened. Personal loans are dispersed in one lump sum and are most often paid back in smaller sums over the course of time. If you are paying off your personal loans just fine but hit a snag, you may not be sure on what steps to take. If money is tight due to a missed paycheck or an emergency, but you owe on your personal loan soon, you will need to make a plan on how to deal with the tight budget. Here are three things to do if you are tight on money and a loan payment is coming up.
Determine if you can make a smaller payment
Some personal loans will allow you to pay different amounts depending on your means. There are times where the minimum payment and the preferred payment are different. Speak with your personal lender and ask if there is a lower payment that you can make for the money. You may even be able to make a smaller payment if you pay right before the deadline in order to extend the payment time. Speak with the lender to determine if you will be able to make a smaller loan payment just once and remain in good standing.
Restructure the bills
Shuffling the bills is one of the fastest ways to get a little extra time when it comes to personal finances. If you can push a bill back without a shut-off notice or without a late fee, you may be able to make the personal loan payment and still not ruin your monthly budget. For some bills, such as electricity or credit cards, you may be able to stretch out the time you pay seven days or even two weeks before you are hit with a late fee. This can allow you to get to the next paycheck without worrying about your budget being stretched too thin.
Let the lender know to expect it in 30 days
Most loans are not reported as late on your credit report until you hit the 30-day mark of being unpaid. If you cannot work out your budget to pay the loan back on time, you should call ahead and let the lender know the day that you will pay. Paying on that date and before 30 days late will keep your credit report and your good name intact.
For more information, contact a company like US Community Credit Union.

Darts Farm Village & Bridge Motorcycles - Brian Purnell
Sun 01 Mar, 2015, 09:00 am
Twelve DWDAM members met at Top of Town car park, Dorchester for a 9.30am start with aim of arriving at Dart Farm Village for brunch followed by an hour or so at Bridge Motorcycles for some new bike browsing.
After early morning rain, the sun came out and stayed with the ride for the rest of day. The route was via the Jurassic coast road taking in Portesham, Abbotsbury Hill, where our intrepid Events Organiser LA was stationed with her camera to take some great shots as the group rode past.
Onto Bridport and then Lyme Regis to pick up the A3052 to Clyst St Mary. Although a little windy, road conditions were pretty good with ample opportunities to make steady progress. Not long after passing through Clyst St Mary, Topsham and Dart Farm was soon reached and once parked up, we headed for the restaurant.
Following a hearty brunch and a browse around the Village, five members returned home so that they could watch the Ireland v England Rugby game at 3pm whilst the rest of us headed on the short fifteen minute ride to Bridge Motorcycles, Marsh Barton.
A good hour was spent browsing and sitting on some new Yamaha, Kawasaki, Triumph and Honda models. Quite a few of us took a fancy to the new Yamaha MT-09 Tracer although the rider's seat was a bit hard - not ideal for long distance riding. By 1.45pm we were on our way back to Dorset and believe it or not, we also made it back indoors to watch the rugby (such a pity England lost !!). Door to door some 125 miles - all in all, a most enjoyable ride out in almost perfect conditions with some very interesting stops.
Thanks to Brian Purnell for organising and leading the ride.

Choosing Wisely: Resource Stewardship in Canadian Medical Schools. Why do residents order unnecessary labs? Published in the March 2017 issue of Today's Hospitalist ALL INPATIENTS should routinely have a daily CBC and basic chemistry screen, right?
Not so, according to the Society of Hospital Medicine, which has identified these often-unnecessary orders as part of the Choosing Wisely campaign. But despite that recommendation, many residents continue ordering such tests—even when they know those orders aren't needed. This puzzling fact concerned the House Staff and Advanced Practice Provider Quality Council of Philadelphia's Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP). Jennifer Myers, MD, a hospitalist who is the faculty advisor for that council, is also director of quality and safety education in the department of medicine at the Perelman School of Medicine. "Each year, our council leads quality improvement efforts," Dr. Residents' self-reported patterns To find out, the council distributed a 15-question survey to 116 internal medicine and general surgery residents at HUP.
Tracking Resident Orders to See If They're Reducing Unnecessary Tests. Does showing residents the number of hospital tests they order in comparison to their peers encourage them to order more appropriately?
Physicians in the Department of Medicine will find out, thanks to a soon-to-be-launched dashboard that uses Epic data to track the number of tests residents order for patients. The dashboard focuses on residents because they manage most hospitalized Department of Medicine patients, but it could one day be broadened to include faculty members. "There's no way to change behavior if you don't know what your behavior is," says Lenny Feldman, an internist who helped create the dashboard with fellow internist Amit Pahwa and the Johns Hopkins Technology Innovation Center.

Over the past 40 years, a variety of approaches have been used to control costs, including global budgeting, managed competition, cost sharing, and pay for performance. Policy makers recognize that physicians play a central role, with some estimates suggesting that physicians control 80% of health expenditures.1 Most policy recommendations therefore acknowledge the importance of physicians in implementing changes to health care organization.

Objective To understand the circumstances in which the delivery of high-value, cost-conscious care is learned, with a goal of informing development of effective educational interventions. Data Sources PubMed, EMBASE, ERIC, and Cochrane databases were searched from inception until September 5, 2015, to identify learners and cost-related topics.

There was no restriction on study design. Teach trainees more thought, less waste. From the March ACP Hospitalist, copyright © 2015 by the American College of Physicians By Julie Knudson Teaching students and residents to practice high-value care requires a significant shift from traditional training methods.
"Historically, the culture has been that nobody was criticized for ordering more tests than necessary, but they did get criticized for leaving out a test that a supervising physician felt needed to be ordered," said Jeff Wiese, MD, FACP, senior associate dean at Tulane University in New Orleans. Photo by Thinkstock Academic hospitalists have been developing strategies to teach trainees how to balance the benefits of a medical intervention with harms and costs, in keeping with general efforts in medicine to reduce waste and improve outcomes. Imprinting this skill, and whole outlook, on future doctors requires not only lectures and assessment but role models who provide care that optimizes outcomes without incurring unnecessary costs, according to experts.

Every year over 15 lakh students register for the board examinations conducted by RBSE. There are over 6000 schools at the secondary and senior secondary level of education which are affiliated to RBSE. Other than prescribing the syllabus, drafting the curriculum, conducting of exams, evaluating performances and announcing results, the board conducts national level talent search examinations in the field of science as well. It also promotes cultural studies and Sanskrit language across the State and follows a unique course structure in the form of "Varishtha Upadhayay Pariksha" at the higher secondary level.

Result previous year statistics
Every year a large number of students appear for the Rajasthan Class 10 Board Exams. A glimpse of the previous year results can give an insight on the trend of the performances so far. However, last year's result is for reference aloneand this year's result will completely depend on the student's performance.
In 2017, a total of 1098921 students had registered for RBSE Class 10 exams. Out of this 630342 were boys and 468579 were girls. Last year the boys had outperformed the girls with a pass percentage recorded at 79.01 %. With the girls scoring 78.89%, the overall pass % was recorded at 78.96%.
Points to be remembered
Students should keep a few things in mind while checking the RBSE 2019 results online.
- The Class 10 board examination mark sheet is an important document which will be required for applying to further studies. Students should secure the printed result sheet till the original mark sheet is issued by the school authority.
- Students will be offered admission into plus two based on the merit list published by various schools affiliated with the Board
- Students can usually collect their original mark sheet and pass certificates from their respective school administration within a month of online result publication.
What to do after 10th
Deciding on the next step ahead after completing Class 10 exams is one of the most significant yet challenging decisions for students. Most students opt for completing higher secondary education which is an essential step towards pursuing further studies. However, making an appropriate decision on the streams to be chosen at the plus-two level could be baffling for students. Depending on the marks secured in matriculation and based on the student's aptitude, the choice of stream would vary. The available streams are as follows:
1. Science Stream (Maths/Biology/Computer/Bio-Maths)
2. Commerce Stream
3. Arts/Humanities Streams
Candidates must stay abreast with the scope of further studies and career opportunities available to ensure that they have maximum information to facilitate them on making an informed choice on the career path ahead. While parents' and teachers' guidance play a prominent role in helping students make a correct decision, candidates can also seek professional help from external sources such as career counselling teams and education fairs. Apart from studying +2, students can also choose from a host of alternative courses which are unconventional in nature. Some of these include:
- Courses offered by the Industrial Training Institutes or Industrial Training Centres that provide skills training across industries
- Applying for posts in the Defence Sector such as Indian Army, Indian Navy or Police Forces
- Applying to certificate programmes like Animation, Web Designing, Information Technology, Fashion Industry or any other relevant programme that candidates can apply for after clearing the Rajasthan class 10 2019.
- Registering for training in diploma programmes conducted by the Department of Primary Education across various States at the Nursery and Pre-Primary level. Candidates will have to clear the exam conducted by the Staff Selection Commission.

Early-onset schizophrenia is classified as when the symptoms show up before the child is 18 years old. Very early-onset schizophrenia occurs in children who are under 13 years of age and is extremely rare.[1] Some of the signs of schizophrenia in children are similar to those of pervasive developmental disorders, so it's important to get a proper diagnosis from a pediatrician or psychiatrist. By monitoring their language development, checking for physical signs, and keeping tabs on their mental health, you may be able to determine if your child is suffering from schizophrenia. Then, you can help your child get the treatment they need.
Part 1 of 4:
Monitoring Their Language Development
1Watch for delays. Every child develops differently. However, children with schizophrenia typically have severe language delays. Some children with schizophrenia may have physical delays such as rocking, posturing, and arm flapping as well. Watch for unusual crawling or late walking. Talk to your pediatrician if you believe your child's developments are delayed.[2]
- For instance, if by age two your child says fewer than 50 words, doesn't put words together to make a sentence, or has trouble communicating with children their age, they may have a language development disorder.
2Listen for bizarre speech. Children with psychosis may use words they invented or repeat the same words and phrases over and over again. They may talk so fast you can't understand them or say back to you what you've said to them. Children with schizophrenia may also jump from one unrelated topic to another abruptly or they may stop suddenly and forget what they were talking about.
- You may also find that your child appears to be talking to someone who isn't there. This could be because they hear voices or are experiencing hallucinations.
3Look for declines in speech. You child may have spoken clearly for a number of years, but schizophrenia could have caused it to decline. The child may not have the ability to carry on a conversation anymore, or could have problems with clarity. Contact your pediatrician if your child's speech has become unrecognizable or significantly declined.[3]Advertisement
Part 2 of 4:
Checking for Behavioral Signs
1Watch for aggression or violence. Children with schizophrenia may be aggressive and violent. They may show these signs suddenly, if the illness is just beginning, or may have always had these tendencies. The child may also become agitated more easily than other children.
- Violence among children isn't always a sign of schizophrenia. Many other disorders cause these types of symptoms. And since schizophrenia in children is so rare, a visit with the doctor is crucial in determining if your child has psychosis or another disorder.[4]
2Notice if your child is acting younger than they actually are. Displaying behavior that is appropriate for children younger than yours is a sign of schizophrenia. They may revert back to being a toddler, or even a baby.
- Your child may throw temper tantrums and act bizarrely, such as crawling or sucking their thumb. Watch carefully for these signs, as they could indicate your child has psychosis.[5]
3Note a significant drop in grades. If your child is attending school and you notice they went from getting good grades to getting extremely poor ones, that may be a sign that they are developing schizophrenia, especially if they are putting in effort in school.[6]
4Check to see if personal hygiene is neglected. Your child may not care about staying clean if they are beginning to experience the disorder. They may forget to shower, brush their hair and teeth, and even put new clothing on each day.
- The reason for this could be because they lack the awareness needed to have good personal hygiene. It may also be a result of lacking motivation or the ability to maintain a schedule because of their disorder.[7]
5Pay attention to their personal relationships. Your child may begin to withdraw from their friends or family members when they begin to feel the effects of schizophrenia. They may become shy around them, not want to engage in conversation, and gradually isolate themselves. They may even act this way around people they've known their entire lives.
- Also take note of if they are able to make new friends and keep them. Lasting friendships may be difficult for them because of their impairments. Their behaviors may make other children afraid or uncomfortable around them.[8]
Part 3 of 4:
Keeping Tabs on Their Mental Health
1Notice if they are always suspicious. Kids with schizophrenia often fear that something is out to get them. They may be nervous and anxious about fears that are unfounded. They may also be extremely suspicious about the people around them. Your child may also become so paranoid that they are scared to leave the house or engage in other activities they used to enjoy.
- Paranoia plagues many children with schizophrenia because of the delusions they have. They may hear voices in their head telling them that they are in danger or they may be unable to separate reality from what is going on in their head.
2Watch their moods. Schizophrenia can cause severe and abrupt mood swings. Your child may seem happy one minute and then enraged the next. The mood swings may be provoked or they may come out of nowhere.[9]
3Pay attention to their emotions. Children may have a difficult time empathizing with others and showing emotion in general. However, children with schizophrenia often have no emotions when they should, or they may show emotions that are inappropriate for the situation.
- Interestingly, people with schizophrenia claim to feel a variety of emotions on the inside during certain situations. However, they are unable to display these feelings and experience what is known as the "flat affect."[10]
4Take note if they seem to be confused. A child with psychosis may seem to be confused or out of sorts. This is often because of the voices, visions, and smells they experience that aren't actually there. They may also have vivid and bizarre thoughts that you don't understand.
- A child with schizophrenia may also confuse television with real life. They may talk about something that they saw on TV as though it happened to them. They may deny that it didn't take place when you try to explain to them the truth.[11]
Part 4 of 4:
Seeking Treatment
1Log symptoms and concerns that you notice. As soon as you notice any peculiar symptoms that resemble schizophrenia, you should alert your child's doctor. Early detection is the best way to ensure your child has appropriate treatment and maintain quality of life. Keep a log to share with the doctor to assist in making a diagnosis.
- You might record any behaviors out of the ordinary along with the date, time, and other contributing factors (i.e. potential triggers to the behavior or mood).
- If you have a family history of schizophrenia, your child's risk increases. Let your doctor know of any immediate family members with the disorder.[12]
2Have your child seen by an expert. Since the symptoms of schizophrenia in children may closely resemble other conditions, you should see someone who has special experience screening for and treating psychotic disorders. You may consult with your child's pediatrician or a family doctor to receive a mental health referral.[13]
- To diagnose schizophrenia, a child or adolescent psychiatrist will perform an in-depth review of symptoms and interview you and your child about their medical history and the family medical history. You might need to complete various questionnaires and your child may undergo psychological assessment.
3Consider an interdisciplinary team. A child with schizophrenia may require a global treatment approach to prevent significant loss of functioning and ensure adherence to the treatment regiment. Your mental health provider may reach out to various other professionals such as assessment specialists, social workers, speech/language therapists, and play therapists.[14]
- If your doctor does not suggest this approach, you may seek out these professionals to help with your child's case.
- Children with schizophrenia are usually treated with some form of medication in combination with some form of therapy.

Photos: The aura of Aurora, India's oldest film production house
Jan 29, 2018 17:42 IST
Anjan Bose, owner of Aurora Film Corporation Pvt Ltd checks film stocks at his Lenin Sarani office. Established in 1906 in Kolkata, this film corporation has set many landmarks. It produced the country's first film for children (Hate Khori, 1939) and the first Bengali film that became tax-free (Raja Rammohan, 1965). But in today's digital age, owner Anjan Bose is attempting a revamp to stay relevant, and keep the film rolling. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
Bose's grandfather Anadinath (pictured above), set Aurora up in 1906 and his father, Ajit, took it to greater heights. The production house came at a time when films were shown in Calcutta in makeshift tents on the maidan and private lawns. In 1955, Anjan's father came forward to distribute Satyajit Ray's Pather Panchali when no one was willing to take the risk. He also distributed Ray's Aparajito (1956) and Jalsaghar (1958). (Aurora Film Corporation)
An employee at the Aurora Film Corporation reads the newspaper. Bose is now betting big on short films. "They are the future. The trend is clear globally and is bound to catch on in India," he asserts. He wants to produce films mostly under 15 minutes, though he is not ruling out feature films and documentaries. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
Vintage equipment stored at Aurora Film Corporation. Aurora's office on Lenin Sarani unlocks the doors to a world bygone. The one-storeyed building is well over 100 years old, where Anadinath Bose shifted office in the 1920s. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
In the office, among other antique equipment, an old cine camera is kept, and a modern computer, mostly used to watch films, appears strangely out of place here. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
A film still of Sadanander Mela featuring Uttam Kumar (L) and Suchitra Sen. During the company's initial years it was a travelling cinema unit, and exhibited films, magic and drama shows in different parts of Bengal. It later expanded into producing newsreels for British troops and also imported feature films to India. (Aurora Film Corporation)
Posters of various films like Raja Rammohan, Prahlad, Sadanander Mela, Aparajito, Harishchandra, Jalsaghar and Bhagini Nibedita that had Aurora associated with them. Among these it produced the Bhagini Nibedita which was the first Bengali film to be shot abroad, party funded and distributed Ray's Aparajito and produced and distributed Ray's Jalsaghar. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
An appetite for risk has prompted Bose to demolish a profit-making studio in Salt Lake, and build a 20-storeyed structure (graphic above) to accommodate studios for film shoots and provide post-production facilities. At least 10 floors are being sold or leased out to companies that will provide Bose the funds for his films. (Aurora Film Corporation)
about the galleryEstablished in 1906 in Kolkata, Aurora Film Corporation is an old name in the film business. But in the new digital age, present-day owner Anjan Bose is attempting to reinvent it in a bid to stay relevant, and keep with the times.

TFN Review: Meet the Heroes: R2-D2 & Meet the Villains: Darth Vader From DK
To coincide with the Star Wars: Galaxy of Adventures shorts on the official Star Wars YouTube channel, DK have launched a new series of books aimed at younger readers who are wanting to know about some of the main characters from the Star Wars saga. Divided into two sub-series entitled "Meet the Heroes" and "Meet the Villains", the first two books take a look at R2-D2 and Darth Vader respectively.
Working on the basis that the reader knows nothing about the character in question, the back covers and opening pages give an indication of the types of questions that will be answered, such as "Does he have other droid friends?" and "Is Darth Vader human?" and the glossary at the back of each covers very basic terms.

Make these DIY Glitter Christmas Candles with not a single speck of glitter to clean up! They're perfect for the glitter lover who hates the mess.
I was compensated by The Dollar Tree for sharing this project featuring their items.

Thank you for supporting To Work with My Hands by using these links when you decide to purchase these products. View my full disclosure here.
Raise your hand if you love glitter!
Come on…where are you?
I get it.
I don't love it myself.
But, isn't is still so pretty and fun?
Hannah – she's a glitter girl and would have containers of it in every imaginable color if I'd let her.
If you've ever had to clean up glitter though – you know!
So imagine my surprise when we were shopping together for a project and she found glitter spray paint.
Yes, it exists!
And this is a glitter I can live with.
It took us no time at all to brainstorm a little glittery DIY Christmas project, and a few supplies later, we were set to go.
I wanted to do something similar to last year's Christmas stencil project – but with a different word. This year's word:
Here's how I added glitter to our Christmas decor without losing my sanity (and you can too). 🙂
I love shopping at The Dollar Tree because they have so many great crafting supplies at a great price!
Aren't these glass candle holders and pillar candles just perfect for a fun Christmas project? If only you could smell these candles… 🙂
I loved using the square holders because they were so agreeable while taking 4 coats of paint. Each side got four coats, then I rolled it over to the next side and started again.
Yes, I went outside sixteen times to paint these little holders! It was a nice break from housecleaning though. 🙂
The Process
I used my Cricut Maker to cut the letters from vinyl. This post shares how to work in Design Space to create a project pattern.
And here you can see it in action:
Is that cool or what?
Next, I pressed a vinyl letter on each candle holder. Thankfully, it's repositionable, which is necessary for some people.
I'm one of those people.
These vinyls are usually used as they are here (and I made an awesome script K for the back of my phone with this stuff), but I'm using them a little differently in this project.
Here they are with the vinyl adhesive. I think they're really cute and now I have to get my hands into some more vinyl projects.
But…that's a project for another day because today is about glitter paint!
After they each had 4 coats of paint, it was time to see if this vinyl would do what I expected it to do.
The vinyl peels right off, leaving clear letters – just enough for the gorgeous candles to peek through.
Yay, Cricut vinyl!
I may be hooked on it now.
And there you have it: DIY Glitter Christmas Candles, and not a speck of glitter to clean up!
This is my kind of glitter.
Have you used glitter paint? What projects would you use it for?
Be sure to check out the great selection of crafting supplies from The Dollar Tree for your creative Christmas projects!

Sunday Roundtable: Do You Feel Pressure When Giving Advice to Friends?
Sundays are known for folks gathering around tables on television and pontificating about some of the hottest topics out there, offering their expertise. We bring that tradition to Graphic Policy as the team gathers to debate in our Sunday Roundtable.
On tap this week?
There's a concept known as influencers, these are people who are gone to when an individual needs advice. Do you think you're the "geek" influencer in your social circle, and if so, do you feel responsibility in giving the right advice when asked a question?
Elana: Absolutely. And proud of it! I do my research when people ask.
One thing I've learned is that there is no right answer to the question "what, should I read?" You always need to find out what people's tastes are in other forms of media before suggesting which comics they might be into
Alex: A lot of my friends have the same interests as me generally in terms of pop culture, books, movies etc. Some like comics, and have probably been reading longer than I have.
But I'd say I'm probably the person who is the most immersed in the comic book world…
Comics have become a part of who I am in a very intrinsic way; do I know everything about them? Do I bollocks. But I'll still tell you what I loved and why. So when I'm asked for a recommendation for something, I'll happily give the best one I can.
Elana: Most of my friends are geeks about something that's in a traditionally geek-y domain. I'm just one of the designated comics experts. If you want to talk about video games you to to Chris or Mike. If you want horror films it's my husband or Tait. Trek is Peng or Daisy (who are married to each other of course). And of course my friend GP contributor Steven Attewell is one of the leading experts on A Song of Ice and Fire in the world. So I do have other people to go to.
Alex: Yeah, I've got a few friends who love ASOIAF books, and while I tried to read them, I just couldn't. It's awesome having people who know the material when I have questions, so I've always tried to do the same for them with comics.
Paul: I definitely am. Comics, pop culture, general geekdom…I am my friends go to guy, and like Elana, proud of it. I don't worry so much about giving the right advice; I just give my opinions and let them make their choices, But I try to steer them the right way tongue emoticon
Christopher: 9 times out of 10, I am, which I'm strangely proud of that. For the most part I don't have uber geek friends, but those who are trying get into comics outside of the stream of movies from the big two. I try to ignore some of the pop culture stuff, like the soap opera with zombies, The Walking Dead. I'm still waiting on Game of Thrones to complete the books before getting into the show. Which a good chunk of my friends watch, without much knowledge of the books. I usually try to that opinion to myself, about that.
Madison: It depends on the social circle. I've been the sole comic reader in a group, which means the friends in that group get my biased recommendations. (Shoutout to my mom, who gets to listen to a lot of comic-based rants and has no context for understanding any of them. She's the real hero, here.) However, I do enjoy hanging out with friends who read comics, because then it's more of an even exchange of recommendations.
Being (relatively) new at comics, I don't feel qualified to answer many questions correctly, so to speak. I do enjoy recommending things, though, and I'll happily research to the best of my ability to fill gaps in my knowledge to suit someone else's tastes.
Alex: Honestly, I think when it comes to giving recommendations on comics, so long as you're honest there's no wrong way to do it… and sod the people who think that just because you're relatively new your opinion doesn't carry as much weight as others.
Madison: I agree. I mean, I'm always going to be biased because I have writers and genres that I absolutely favor…the trick is finding people who share, if not exactly the same, then similar interests.
Alex: I think bias is healthy, though. I'd rather hear your honest opinion of a product than hear an emotionless response. If something made you angry, then I wanna know why.
Madison: In that case, would you rather have the twenty minute speech on Ant Man or Age of Ultron? Haha
Elana: Madison
Alex: Haha, I haven't seen Ant-Man in awhile, so AoU, maybe.
Elana: Never to late for us to run another piece about AoU in advance of the new movie…
Javier: Unfortunately, as I got older, and moved from job to job, my social circle has shifted. I have friends who have geeky interests; but usually that centers on a movies or shows that are based on sci-fi/fantasy novels or comic books I've read (obvious examples being Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, and the Marvel Movies). I give my opinions when asked, and try to avoid spoilers; but as far as comic books and graphic novels go, I'm pretty much a lone wolf nowadays.
Brett: I actually feel some pressure. I know people are going to ask me how the latest comic movie is, so I feel like I need to see it opening night or watch all the shows.
Elana: People expect that of me. But I never do opening night. I always have to remind them of that. You are great at going to see everything so you can review it. If I think something is going to be bad, like the green lantern movie, I just don't even go
Alex: Batman V Superman was the first time I've been to an opening night comic book movie in years. I've usually seen it within the first week, but rarely opening night.
Steven: For me in my inner circle of friends, i'm usually the guy they go to for sports advice or questions, but at work, my co-workers usually come to me with questions about comic books and questions about superhero shows. And ironically enough my best friend asked me today some questions about power rangers.
Brett: And what about you readers? Sound off in the comments below!

The Highway Men Trailer Reaction – Netflix With Woody Harrelson
YAHOO! I brought my mother in on this trailer review and we had a little fun watching this upcoming Western series and talking about whether or not we would tune in. I actually love to watch period pieces and BOY what a cast, right?!
Netflix Synopsis: THE HIGHWAYMEN follows the untold true story of the legendary lawmen who brought down Bonnie and Clyde. When the full force of the FBI and the latest forensic technology aren't enough to capture the nation's most notorious criminals, two former Texas Rangers (Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson) must rely on their gut instincts and old school skills to get the job done.

We've got an auto-scaling EC2 setup, so servers can appear and disappear at will, each with random IP addresses. We want to store the apache error/access logs (or system logs) from these servers for later debugging and analysis, but nothing else on them matters (they're basically read only, except the logging). How should we store these?
Seems like a simple problem, there must be a simple solution? Here are the existing options:
- syslog-ng or rsyslogd logging to a central location.
- Pros: centralized logs, easy to analyse, near to real time
- Cons: Requires extra dedicated server (costs). Have to extend storage or upload to S3 periodically. PITA setup from a security POV unless you know the IP addresses in advance (you can set up your own CA and generate a number of SSL keys and distribute these to the servers on startup and use TLS encrypted communications, but I really CBA with all that hassle - not to mention that last time I checked Amazon Linux didn't support these servers OOTB so I'd have to install them from a CentOS RPM or similar)
- Message queuing
- (I don't think this is a perfect match)
- Hadoop cluster
- Pros: awesome data crunching ability
- Cons: we don't have 10million users yet, I think this is a bit heavy handed (not to mention expensive)
- Scribe from Facebook
- Cons: too much setup, requires specific server heirarchy.
- logg.ly and splunk
- Cons: too expensive/untested/unknown for now
- Something else…
I chose "something else" - a custom solution using logrotate to upload the logs to S3 on a per server basis. Here's how I did it (and how you can do it too) You'll need:
/usr/local/bin/s3uploadfiledownload - a script that uploads a file to S3…
/etc/init.d/s3logrotatedownload - an init script to trigger
logrotateto be called (twice) on server shutdown
/usr/local/bin/s3logrotateddownload - a callback script to call when a log has been rotated (process the logrotate message and calls
s3uploadfileto upload the log to S3)
/root/.s3env- a simple bash script to export your s3 credentials for
s3uploadfileto work
1 2 3 4
Step 1: Create your dedicated server log S3 bucket (if you haven't already)
Step 2: Download and install the scripts above to the
locations above, including
/root/.s3env and then make them all executable (
chmod +x [file])
Step 3: Modify the relevant logrotate scripts to use
callback and add
s3logrotate to the server
rc*.d scripts. When
logrotate: don't use
dateext, do use
compress, do use
delaycompress, do use
sharedscripts. Here's what I use:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Note that the
".2.gz" is because of
compress and
delaycompress -
it is the first compressed log file. This is why we need
/etc/init.d/s3logrotate to run "
logrotate -f" twice on server
Step 4: Analytics I suppose, but I leave that as an exercise for the reader. I hope this helps someone - if it does, let me know in the comments. If you want any help setting it up (or understanding how it works) then just shoot me an email or leave me a comment.

The Social-Revolutionary Potential of Buddhism
Click Google Preview button to look inside the book.
Far from being a recluse concerned only with an inner mystical experience, the Buddha always involved himself closely in the social and political world of his time. If he preached detachment from many of the things by which ordinary men are tied, he did so as a means of enriching life rather than escaping from it. Trevor Ling describes the India into which the Buddha was born, recounts what is known of his life and the development of his teaching, and then follows the course of Buddhism through succeeding centuries in India and Sri Lanka. His admiration for the Buddha and his teaching and for the civilization which embodied it makes this a warm and stimulating book.
For those who wish to pursue the teaching of the Buddha beyond the stage of wishes and promises, into a stage of mature implementation, Trevor Ling, with his learning, his unabashedly positive bias, and his seasoned historical lessons and lenses, spoke with a clarifying voice. His vivid history lets us feel we are walking around inside ancient India and Sri Lanka. Forty years after he wrote The Buddha, this book emits tempered hope. PAUL R. FLEISCHMAN, MD, author, Cultivating Inner Peace
Decades of study and practice have filled my shelves with scores of Dhamma books. Some glow with a special signifi cance, having singlehandedly opened me to a whole new dimension of appreciation for Gotama s life and thought. Trevor Ling s The Buddha is emphatically one of these. PHILIP NOVAK, co-author, Buddhism; author, The World s Religions
TREVOR OSWALD LING (1920-1995) was a cleric, theologian, and scholar who pioneered the study of Comparative Religion in British universities, a focus that emerged during the years he lived in India and Southeast Asia. His published works include Buddhism and the Mythology of Evil; A History of Religion East and West; and A Dictionary of Buddhism.
