Conditions of Sale English Law
Barnack Auctions Conditions of Sale shall be construed in accordance with English Law. All transactions to which these Conditions of Sale apply shall be governed by English Law. Barnack Auctions hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts and all other parties concerned hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts
In these Conditions Barnack Auctions, who act only as auctioneers and agents for the vendor, are called "the Auctioneers", and the representative of Barnack Auctions conducting the auction is called "the Auctioneer". It is acknowledged that Barnack Auctions are a provincial auction house and do not hold themselves to be experts.
Barnack Auctions act as agents for the vendor who shall indemnify them for all lawful acts made for the vendor in the course of carrying out their actual and implied instructions.
Whilst Barnack Auctions make honest effort to ensure the accuracy of their catalogue and the description of any lot:
Each lot as set out in the catalogue or as divided or combined with any other lot or lots is sold by the vendor with all faults, imperfections and errors of description. Neither the Auctioneers nor the Vendor are responsible for any references as to the condition of lots listed. The absence of any such reference does not imply that a lot is in good condition or free from faults or imperfections. Intending buyers must satisfy themselves by inspection prior to the sale of the condition of any lot.
Barnack Auctions do not accept responsibility for the authenticity, attribution, genuineness, original authorship, date, age, period, condition or quality of any lot.
All statements, whether printed in the catalogue or made orally, as to any of the matters set out above are statements of opinion only and are not to be taken as being or implying any warranties or representation of fact by Barnack Auctions.
Any claim under Statute must be received in writing by the Auctioneers within seven days of the day of the sale.
Instructions given by telephone or facsimile or electronically are accepted at the sender's sole risk and must be confirmed in writing forthwith.
Any notice by Barnack Auctions to a vendor, consignor, prospective bidder or buyer will be given by first class mail and shall be deemed to have been duly received by the addressee 48 hours after posting.

Barnack Auctions shall have the right at their absolute discretion to refuse admission to its premises or attendance at its auctions by any person.
In no case will any claim for consequential loss of any kind be considered.

Value Added Tax.
Lots on which Value Added Tax will be payable by the buyer on the "hammer price" are indicated in the catalogue by a symbol beside the lot number ( * ). The buyer shall pay any VAT which may be due on any amounts owed by the buyer under these Terms of Business at the rates prevailing on the day of the auction.
Auctioneers Margin Scheme.
The Auctioneers Margin Scheme allows auctioneers to sell items without VAT on the hammer price. Under the margin scheme an amount equivalent to VAT at the current rate is added to the buyer's premium. This amount cannot be reclaimed from HM Revenue & Customs. The VAT element will not be shown separately on the buyers invoice.
Absentee Commission Bids.
If instructed, the auctioneers will execute written bids for prospective purchasers; this service is free. Lots will always be purchased as cheaply as is allowed by such other bids and reserves. In the event of identical bids, the earliest will take precedence, a bid in the sale room will always take precedence. There must always be a maximum limit indicated, i.e. the amount to which you would bid if you were attending the auction yourself. "Buy" or unlimited bids will not be accepted. Commission bids placed on our website by the "register my bid" function, by telephone or email and are accepted at the bidder's risk and must be in accordance with clause below. We urge our clients to place such commission bids within one hour of the close of the view day.
Absentee bids can only be accepted if accompanied by full details of the bidder, including full name and postal address, email address and telephone numbers.
You must enter valid credit or debit card details to be accepted to bid online at this auction and you must ensure that you have sufficient funds available on your payment card. We do not accept card payments from absentee overseas buyers.
Telephone, Internet & Live On-line Bids.
Requests for telephone bidding must be registered with Barnack Auctions by the close of the last view day. It may not be possible to accept requests on sale days. Written confirmation of such bids from persons unknown to the auctioneers must be received before the commencement of the sale. Whilst every effort will be made to execute telephone bidding, or bidding by placing absentee bids, or by live internet bidding, or electronic bidding the auctioneers cannot be held responsible for any default or neglect, or technical problem, in connection with this service. All such arrangements therefore are made entirely at the prospective buyer's risk.
The purchaser shall pay the hammer price together with a premium of 18% plus internet surcharge if applicable.
In completing the bidder registration via www.the-saleroom.com and providing your credit or debit card details and unless alternative arrangements are made with Barnack Auctions Auctioneers you:

The Auction
The Auctioneer has absolute discretion to divide any lot, to combine any two or more lots or to withdraw any lot or lots from the sale, to refuse bids, regulate bidding without in any case giving any reason or without previous notice. He may bid on behalf of the vendor for all goods which are being offered subject to reserve. Vendors should be aware that lots are generally offered subject to a reserve price.
The highest bidder at the fall of the hammer shall be the buyer except in the case of a dispute. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen, he has absolute discretion to settle it or refuse a bid.
All conditions, notices, description, statements and other matters in the catalogue and elsewhere concerning any lot are subject to any statement modifying or affecting the same made by the Auctioneer from the rostrum prior to any bid being accepted for the lot.
Each lot put up for sale may be subject to a reserve price which will have been determined by the vendor and communicated to the Auctioneer prior to the auction. The Auctioneer will commence and advance the bidding at levels and in increments he considers appropriate and is entitled to place a bid or series of bids on behalf of the Seller up to the Reserve on the lot, without indicating he is doing so and whether or not other bids are placed.
Buyer's Premium. All lots are sold subject to a buyer's premium of 18% plus internet surcharge if applicable, unless otherwise stated and published by the auctioneers, such sum to be retained by the auctioneers for their own remuneration.

★ Lots Marked with a "★" indicate that this lot is not in the showroom for viewing, please contact Barnack Auctions to arrange a viewing at the vendors location.
Barnack Auctions Ownership Interest
~ Lots Marked "~" indicate that Barnack Auctions owns the lot in whole or in part or has an economic interest in the lot equivalent to an ownership interest and will be subject to the same terms and conditions as any other item in the sale.
Notwithstanding any other terms of these Conditions, if within fourteen days after the sale Barnack Auctions has received from the buyer of any lot notice in writing that in his view, taking full consideration of the catalogue entry, the lot is a deliberate forgery and within this period after such notification the buyer returns the same to Barnack Auctions in the same condition as at the time of sale and by producing evidence, the burden of proof to be upon the buyer, satisfies Barnack Auctions that considered in the light of the entry in the catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery, then the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded. In the event of a dispute then the matter shall be settled by arbitration, the arbitrator to be nominated by the President of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. Both the buyer and the vendor agree to be bound by the decision. "Deliberate Forgery" means an imitation made with the intention of deceiving as to authorship, origin, date, etc., and which at the date of the sale had a value materially less than it would have had if it had been in accordance with that description. Where rescission of sale is justified due to the actual and implied conditions of sale, the vendor gives the auctioneer the power to rescind or accept rescission of the sale.
Barnack Auctions disclaim responsibility for default by either the buyer or the vendor because they act as agents for the vendor only and therefore do not pay out to the vendor until payment is received from the buyer.

Emmitsburg, Md. – Behind hat tricks from junior co-captain Thomas DeNapoli and junior Andrew Hodgson, Towson men's lacrosse (2-3) recorded a 13-5 win over Mount St. Mary's (2-3) Saturday evening at Waldron Family Stadium.
"We knew it was going to be a battle tonight," said head coach Shawn Nadelen. "They are extremely explosive offensively and well-coached defensively. I was really proud of the way our guys came out energy-wise. We didn't give [the Mount] easy looks or easy breaks."
The Tigers scored six straight goals in the third and fourth quarters and kept the Mount off the board in the fourth to secure the win. DeNapoli posted a four-point night, adding an assist to his three goals.
Senior Andrew Wascavage made 12 saves on the evening, many of them point-blank.
"I think a difference in the game was Andrew Wascavage's play," continued Nadelen. "He was a backbone for us. He made a ton of key stops in tight. He was just fantastic. He definitely deserves a game ball for today."
Brett Schmidt's two goals and one assist paced the Mount. Adam Borgogelli had eight saves in net for the Mountaineers.
The Mount took an early 1-0 lead after Schmidt scored top-shelf on an extra-man opportunity at 13:21. But freshman Brian Bolewicki notched his first career goal at 11:23 on a bounce shot from distance to tie the game at 1-1. The Mount's Andrew Scalley and Hodgson traded goals to keep the score knotted, 2-2, at 3:21.
Towson opened the second quarter with a DeNapoli goal at 14:36 to give the Tigers their first lead of the game. Junior Cory Dobyns increased Towson's lead to 4-2 with 9:08 left in the second quarter when he ripped a shot right side as he fell to the ground for an extra-man tally. Sophomore Greg Cuccinello continued his charged offensive production this season, burying a shot past Borgogelli with 35.5 seconds left to give Towson a 5-2 cushion at the half.
Dobyns posted his sixth man-up goal of the year at 13:23 in the third after the Mount started the second half man-down due to a penalty at the very end of the second quarter. Towson led 6-2 until MSM scored three quick goals to trim the lead to 6-5. DeNapoli stemmed the tide at 9:23 to keep the Tigers out in front, 7-5, and Hodgson scored his second of the game with 43.2 seconds remaining in the third frame.
"One of the things our guys do well is not get rattled when teams go on runs," said Nadelen. "Our guys believe in themselves. We need to work on not letting teams get those runs, getting defensive stops and face-off wins. But I'm proud of our guys tonight."

Sports Network
Philadelphia, PA – It may seem early, but with conference media days and summer camps right around the corner, then the season just a little beyond that, the thought of college football awards is ripe.
The anticipation is only elevated this week when a number of watch lists are released. With the Maxwell and Bednarik awards being rolled out on Monday, it's time to start whittling the 70-player field down to the real contenders.
First up is a look at who will be adding some hardware to the trophy case on the offensive side of the ball.
DAVEY O'BRIEN AWARD - Teddy Bridgewater, Louisville
This season's quarterback corps is one of the better ones in awhile. There are eight or nine signal callers who have the potential to earn this award, including defending award winner Johnny Manziel. However, this season it is Bridgewater who should rise to the occasion. Last season, Bridgewater led the then-Big East in just about every passing category while ranking in the upper echelon of the country as well. This season, with the diluted defenses of the weakened American Athletic Conference lining up across from him, Bridgewater could very well be even more productive. The only real hurdle that may face Bridgewater is living up to the enormous hype that has been building since he lead Louisville to a win in the Sugar Bowl.
RUNNER-UP - Johnny Manziel, Texas A&M
DARK HORSE - David Fales, San Jose State
DOAK WALKER AWARD - Ka'Deem Carey, Arizona
It was a foregone conclusion that Arizona would become a team that excelled in the running game when Rich Rodriguez took over last season. No player benefited from that shift in philosophy than Carey. An absolutely explosive back, Carey has the type of breakaway speed and versatility that has many professional scouts salivating. The 5-foot-10 back led the country in rushing yards (1,929) and ranked third for Arizona in receptions (36) and receiving yards (303) while picking up consensus All-American honors and a spot on the All-Pac 12 first team. Carey also galloped into the record books as his 366 rushing yards against Colorado broke the Pac-12 single-game record on Nov. 10.
RUNNER-UP - De'Anthony Thomas, Oregon
DARK HORSE - Antonio Andrews, Western Kentucky
FRED BILETNIKOFF AWARD - Marqise Lee, USC
Last year at this time, another USC wide receiver, Robert Woods, was thought to be destined to take this award home as the Trojans were envisioned as a heavy national title favorite. At the end of the season, USC was far from a BCS championship. However, although Woods didn't collect the Biletnikoff, a Trojan still won the Biletnikoff thanks to Lee's exploits. Largely the lone bright spot in what was a severely underwhelming season in Los Angeles, Lee caught just about everything thrown his way while racking up ridiculous yardage totals. When the dust settled on the season, Lee led the nation in receptions (118) and ranked second in yards (1,721). Lee will be adjusting to a new quarterback with Matt Barkley gone to the NFL, but with Woods also gone, Lee won't have much competition for receptions.
RUNNER-UP - Sammy Watkins, Clemson
DARK HORSE - Brandon Coleman, Rutgers
JOHN MACKEY AWARD - Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Washington
On paper, Seferian-Jenkins is hands-down the front-runner for this award that goes to the nation's best tight end. The 6-6 junior has already smashed a bunch of Washington receiving records for a tight end, was one of just a handful tight ends to rank in the top 100 players in the country in receptions (69) and receiving yards (850) while also being named to the All-Pac-12 second team. However, a DUI arrest in April forced Washington coach Steve Sarkisian to suspend Seferian-Jenkins indefinitely. With no return date in sight, Seferian- Jenkins is far from a lock to collect the Mackey Award. However, if he is able to get back on the field before the end of August, his skill set and size make him the clear favorite.
RUNNER-UP - Eric Ebron, North Carolina
DARK HORSE - Chris Coyle, Arizona State
JOHN OUTLAND AWARD - Jake Matthews, Texas A&M
Luke Joeckel took home the Outland Trophy last season and he might as well have left it at College Station. Matthews was lining up right alongside Joeckel last season for the surprising Aggies and this year will be looked upon to lead the protection of prized man under center Johnny Manziel. At 6-5, 305 pounds, Matthews has the ideal size not only to dominate at the collegiate level but to be making plays on future Sundays. The son of Hall of Famer Bruce Matthews, he earned All-SEC first-team honors a year ago and likely could have had a shot at this award in 2012 if it weren't for Joeckel. That won't be a problem this season, and if the Aggies are going to be as tough as expected, Matthews will be a big part of that. That might be enough to give the Aggies this trophy again.
RUNNER-UP - Taylor Lewan, Michigan
DARK HORSE - Cyril Richardson, Baylor
DAVE RIMINGTON AWARD - Bryan Stork, Florida State
At the center position, there are not a lot of flashy stats or exposure on national highlight shows that put you in the public eye for award hype. Yet those who know college football are aware of the importance of the guys in the trenches, especially those who have a bulk of experience under their belts. So while touchdowns and yards get the attention for backs and receivers, experience is often the most valuable currency for centers. Stork has that in spades as he leads the Seminoles in both starts (27) and total games (35). That type of experience is crucial at the center position as the pivot spot can be considered the "quarterback" of the offensive line. Stork is anchoring a team that finished in the top 10 last season nationally while setting a school record in total offense (6,591).
RUNNER-UP - Travis Swanson, Arkansas
DARK HORSE - Tyler Larsen, Utah State

I came across this recently and I just HAD to show it you... The men's health coach, Jack Grave, has just posted a free video on his website that explains exactly how ANY man can last longer (over 35 minutes!) in bed. Obviously I don't normally share every video I come across on the net, but this blew my mind.
>>> A quick method to lasting longer
He breaks down step-by-step how someone who can last even for only a couple seconds in bed can go on to last over 35 minutes in bed. Now these are some pretty big claims so I checked Jack Grave out and turns out he's 100% legit. His strategies for lasting longer make perfect sense and are based on the simple fact that if you just make a few small changes to what you do during sex, then you can DRAMATICALLY increase how much longer you last. Anyway, you can check it out for yourself for free. It's up on his site at the moment at

OSKALOOSA, Iowa—Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann waded into a sensitive area of immigration policy Saturday during a somewhat charged exchange at a campaign stop in southeast Iowa.
Bachmann entered an extended exchange with a college student (and Democrat) over how to handle the immigrants who are brought to the U.S. illegally as children.
After finishing a speech that focused in part on repealing the federal health care law and overhauling the tax code, Bachmann opened the floor to questions from the 100 or so people gathered at Smokey Row restaurant.
A 19 year-old college student, identifying himself as Latino, asked what Bachmann would "do to" the children of illegal immigrants.
Bachmann responded that she is "not doing anything to them," and described why she is against the federal government rewarding citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants.
"Their parents are the ones who brought them here," Bachmann said.
"They did not have the legal right to come to the United States," Bachmann added, of the parents. "We do not owe people who broke our laws to come into the country. We don't owe them anything."
Bachmann went on to draw a parallel to her own family's journey to the United States more than 150 years ago.
"I dare say that probably every single person in this room descends from immigrants," Bachmann said.
"I did—my immigrant family came here in the 1850s, and they came into the United States legally. They received zero benefits."
The exchange was somewhat charged, because the student, Roy Aguillon, cast the question in personal terms.
"These guys were my friends," Aguillon said. "They are the guys who sit next to me in class, who I see in Walmart."
Aguillon, who is from San Antonio and is a student at nearby William Penn University, is a second-generation American citizen and is active in local politics—serving as the vice president of the College & Young Democrats of Iowa.
In an interview with NBC News, Aguillon said he didn't intend to draw Bachmann into a discussion about the DREAM Act—legislation which would offer benefits, including citizenship, to the children of illegal immigrants.
Instead, he says, he was looking for a practical answer for young illegals, given Bachmann's hard line position.
"These guys don't know anything else," Aguillon said during his interview with NBC. "What are you going to do, send them back to Mexico? The place is basically in the middle of a drug war."
Aguillon says he didn't attend the event to raise trouble, and despite his leadership role in the Iowa College Democrats, he would consider voting Republican in 2012.
He complains that President Obama abandoned the DREAM Act, and hasn't been hard enough on Wall Street. He says, of Obama: "He's not enough of a fighter to be my president right now."
Despite the personal tone of their exchange, Aguillon and Bachmann chatted following the event, and they posed for pictures together afterward, along with Aguillon's girlfriend.
As the campaign team left the restaurant, Iowa state co-chair Brad Zaun, a state senator from Urbandale, pulled him aside.
"Thanks for your honesty," Zaun said.

I finally got around to watching the most recent 北野 武, Takeshi Kitano dvd the other night-- 2005's Takeshis' ...
It concerns an established actor, Beat Takeshi, and his crossing paths with a struggling actor, Takeshi Kitano. A significant number of the cast play dual roles, which I was embarrassingly slow to comprehend, given the fairly confusing abstractions within film. As Beat Takeshi, Kitano plays himself as boorish and self-important and satirizes his own artistic conventions to comic effect. In his film-within-a-film, he plays a bandaged yakuza character. Annoyed by cicadas at his Okinawan hideaway, his character "unexpectedly" shoots his girlfriend before turning the gun on himself.
The second half of the film grows even less conventional. Sometimes it just seemed strange for the sake of being strange. It moved toward abstraction like David Lynch's last few films have, as if to bait the deluded fans into comparing their own narrative reconstructions. I started to lose a bit of interest at that point since that kind of "artistic innovation" became pretty cliché long before my parents even met.
One ingredient I quickly realized was possibly detracting from my enjoyment was the absence of longtime musical collaborator Joe Hishaishi (or, Hisaishi Joe, Mamoru Fujisawa's Nipponized version of "Quincy Jones"), whose moody, jazz and Japanese-influenced scores have always contributed to the tone of Kitano's previous films so complimentarily. I guess Takeshi Kitano and Joe Hisaishi got into it on the set of the amazing Dolls a few years back and lamentably ended their artistic arrangement. Apparently, Kitano saw Hisaishi walking in the rain with Hayao Miyazaki.

The background-screening industry is facing greater scrutiny over the accuracy of its reports, according to industry experts. In 2012 some job seekers claimed that inaccurate criminal background checks prevented them from finding employment.
Accuracy of background-check-report information and greater scrutiny of the screening industry are the No. 1 trend for 2013, said attorney and background-check expert Lester Rosen.
"One of the primary jobs of a professional background screener is to provide accurate and actionable information so that employers can make considered decisions on hiring issues," said Rosen, author of The Safe Hiring Manual, a comprehensive guide for employment screening.
Background screening is increasingly the subject of regulation, litigation and legislation, so it is important that employers use knowledgeable providers, Rosen told SHRM Online.
The increased attention in 2012 included the following:
- A Federal Trade Commission (FTC) report recommending regulations on data brokers.
- FTC charges against companies for alleged Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) violations, including the $2.6 million settlement against HireRight Solutions, which represented the first time the FTC charged an employment background-screening firm with violating the FCRA.
- Oversight from the newly created Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
- An NBC "Today Show" report on background-check errors costing people jobs.
In the HireRight case the FTC charged the company with failure to take reasonable steps to ensure that the information in its reports was current and reflected updates, such as the expunging of criminal records, and failure to follow reasonable procedures to prevent inaccurate consumer-report information from being provided to employers. HireRight also was charged with failing to give candidates copies of their reports, failing to reinvestigate consumer disputes and failing to sufficiently notify consumers when public-record information was used to determine hiring eligibility.
Rosen advises employers to be more diligent in hiring screening firms. "Although the overall accuracy rate for background checks is extremely high, it is still easy for the press to take one or two examples out of millions of reports done every year and create a sensationalistic story," he said. "But employers need to kick the tires and make sure to ask enough questions about background-check firms they may want to use for employment screening."
Asking the Right Questions
The most crucial action you can take to protect your company from providers who engage in questionable screening practices is to ask the right questions, according to a recent white paper published by EmployeeScreenIQ, a Cleveland-based employment-screening company.
A critical area to inquire about is a company's demonstrated expertise, said EmployeeScreenIQ Executive Vice President Nick Fishman. "A criminal background check can mean anything from a comprehensive county courthouse criminal search to spidering various court sites to commercial database searches. It's not enough to know that a company offers this service—you need to know how they conduct their research, how they authenticate the information and what they do, if anything, to ensure accuracy," Fishman told SHRM Online.
Questions to ask that demonstrate expertise, according to Fishman, include:
- How long have you been in business?
- Have you ever been held liable for your business practices? Are you facing active claims?
- Have you ever been sanctioned by a state or federal regulatory agency?
- Are you accredited by the National Association of Professional Background Screeners (NAPBS)? Less than 2 percent of consumer reporting agencies are NAPBS-accredited, so be sure to ask providers to supply you with documented proof.
- What is the average tenure of your leadership team?
- What is your company's average criminal-hit percentage?
- What percentage of the applicants you screen dispute the findings of their background checks?
- What is your client-retention rate?
- What is your average turnaround time? How is turnaround time measured?
To help you determine how well a provider is keeping abreast of changing litigation and legislation, ask questions such as:
- How does your company stay compliant with state and federal laws? Can you provide policies and procedures that demonstrate such compliance?
- Describe a recent change in screening guidelines. How did you inform your clients about it?
- Do you have in-house legal counsel?
- Will my company have access to your legal counsel and/or compliance team?
- What type of compliance support do you offer clients?
- What types of client education in this area do you offer?
- Does your company have private-investigator licenses in every state where required? (State-specific licenses are required in Nevada, Arizona and Texas.)
- What is your company's candidate-dispute rate?
- Describe how your company responds to candidate disputes.
Failing to secure the personal data of consumers and job candidates can be disastrous to a company's reputation and bottom line. Learn about your potential provider's practices by asking these critical questions:
- Does your company have documented disaster-recovery procedures?
- Does your company have documented data-protection procedures?
- Has your company ever experienced a data breach?
- Describe your technology platform, and explain how you protect sensitive customer data throughout the ordering process.
- Does your company send offshore any part of the background-screening process, whether operational, service or data entry?
- Have your company's security policies and procedures ever been audited by a third party?
It's important that background checks be conducted accurately and with care. Protect your organization by asking potential providers about their practices related to both criminal records and resume verification with questions such as the following:
- Describe your methods for conducting criminal background checks.
- Describe your approach to conducting employment verifications.
When comparing prices and determining the overall value of your options, be sure to ask:
- Specifically, what is included in the price?
- Do you conduct employment verifications? If so, how many employers are included?
- Will you follow up with the applicant if you are unable to complete employment or education verification?
Key technology questions include:
- Are you able to integrate your system with our applicant-tracking/talent-management platforms?
- What options do you offer for order placement?
- What type of training and support do you offer?
- Can your system be customized to support our unique needs?
- How often do you release new system features and functionality?
Evaluating Your Findings
After all this it's time to evaluate the responses you've received. Companies should meet with potential partners and drill down further on their practices, Fishman said. Every organization will weigh its specific findings differently, according to its unique needs and concerns. EmployeeScreenIQ has three basic guidelines to help determine which providers potentially offer a good fit:
- Verify providers' claims through independent sources.
- Ask for references, not only from current clients but from those who are no longer using the company's services.
- Ask for a set of test searches before you make a commitment.

Hi, in older Mathematica versions the simple call of Graphics[your3dGraphicsObject] would generate the 2d version. This usefull feature is gone with version 6 but you cann still export the 3d graphics to a 2d vector format and obtain the same effect, i.e. gg = Plot3D[Sin[x*y], {x, 0, Pi}, {y, 0, Pi}] test = ImportString[ExportString[gg, "PDF"], "PDF"] and test is the 2d graphics you want.

DreamFactory Deployments with CloudFoundry
(→Moving Files Around)

When you're finished, your basic structure should look like this:
When you're finished, your basic structure should look like this:
Revision as of 21:52, 23 October 2017
This Wiki tutorial applies to both Pivotal and IBM Bluemix.
Dreamfactory can be deployed as a CloudFoundry manifest and launched in both the Pivotal and IBM BlueMix Platforms. This requires a bit of restructuring of the source code but can be easily done.
To set things up, the DreamFactory source needs to be pulled down and composer run first, so the necessary vendor packages can be brought in. Next, the newly updated source files (inflated by Composer) needs to be placed in a separate directory under the manifest file. This essentially becomes our "App" package for CloudFoundry.
Here's a step-by-step guide on the basics of setting things up. This demo will use the open source version of the product with the default Sqlite database but should be a good place to get started for further development.
Install DreamFactory (Temporarily)
First, let's create a temporary directory to stage our work.
mkdir cf-dftemp
Next, pull down the dream factory source into a directory called "htdocs".
git clone https://github.com/dreamfactorysoftware/dreamfactory.git ./htdocs
Next, install DreamFactory and its dependencies with Composer in the new directory.
cd htdocs
composer install —no-dev
Let composer install the dependencies and then we'll next need to move some files around.
Moving Files Around
Some of the config files for CloudFoundry are carried along with the DreamFactory source. You will need to move these files up a level above the
./htdocs directory.
These directories and files are as follows:
You must move all these files up a level, however, keep a copy of composer.lock within the original directory, so just copy that one to the higher directory.
When you're finished, your basic structure should look like this:

Honestly, we could enjoy watching Charlie Rose on a stripper pole if "Season of the Witch" were playing, but the trailer for "ParaNorman" would surely stand on its own merits.
"ParaNorman," from Laika, the same studio that did "Coraline," is a stop-motion animation 3D adventure about a boy who can talk to dead people. Norman must use his talent he to fight an ancient curse that threatens to wipe out everyone in his town.
Kodi Smit-McPhee voices Norman, with Casey Affelck, John Goodman, Anna Kendrick, Leslie Mann and Christopher Mintz-Plasse also lending their talents.

Chris Butler wrote the script and co-directed the film with Sam Fell, whose most recent effort was "The Tale of Desperaux."
"ParaNorman" opens Aug. 17, 2012--as opposed to, say, around Halloween.

Professor Robert J. Asaro
The cell wall of S. cerevisae serves to protect the cell from thermal, oxidative and mechanical stresses and it is the target for anti-fungal drugs in pathogenic strains. It also serves as a model for cell wall formation in higher eukaryotes. Little is known about its mechanical properties due to the complex nature of its protein and polysaccharide components, and their interconnections. A multi-scale model describing the cell walls nano-mechanical response to AFM tip indentation and the whole cell's response to high hydrostatic pressure, nano-indentation and micro- manipulation compression experiments is under development.

NEW YORK -- An emaciated 60-foot finback whale that washed up on a coastal community devastated by Superstorm Sandy has died, marine officials said Thursday.
The whale was found beached Wednesday in Breezy Point, Queens, where 126 homes burned down and more than 2,000 were damaged during the Oct. 29 storm. It was carried out at high tide but washed ashore another time on Thursday, and marine officials said they found it dead, according to media reports.
"Biologists have confirmed that the whale has died," Mendy Garron, a marine mammal rescue specialist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, told Reuters. "Plans are currently being developed for necropsy and disposal of the carcass."
PhotoBlog: Finback whale beached at Breezy Point
Finback whales are an endangered species. They are second in size only to the blue whale, and can reach up to 70 feet in length and weigh up to 70 tons. The whales migrate to equatorial waters in the fall and during winter, they mostly fast, surviving on their fat reserves. Winter is also when they mate, and calves are born one year later, according to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
It is one of the fastest large whales and can stay underwater for up to 50 minutes on one breath.
Tim Dufficy, 26, a member of the Point Breeze Volunteer Fire Department, said the firehouse was contacted by security in the private cooperative about the animal. He and a few other volunteers took some new equipment, such as a portable pump and a special hose, that they'd gotten in the aftermath of the storm to keep water flowing on the whale during low tide since it was mostly out of the water.
"Everyone was hoping," he told NBC News. "But ... we knew the prospects were grim."
The whale did respond to the firefighters efforts, opening its eyes and moving its tails and side fins, he said. The fire crew eventually left the animal in the care of marine biologists. When Dufficy went to check back on the whale on Thursday, it had drifted seven blocks down the beach.
Rob DiGiovanni, executive director of the Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research and Preservation told NBCNewYork.com on Wednesday that the whale was "severely emaciated" and that the outcome did not look good.
Calls placed Thursday seeking comment to the foundation and NOAA were not immediately returned.
The whale was found on the bay side of the community, which is tucked in by the Atlantic Ocean and Jamaica Bay. With most homes rendered uninhabitable by the storm, many residents have had to move away and make daily trips to continue repairs.
Sharks, dolphins and a large sea turtle have also turned up on the beaches of Breezy Point, which was founded more than a century ago by Irish immigrants. It's not clear how many survived, said Dufficy, though he knew the sea turtle was alive when marine officials took it away.
A whale also beached itself on the community's Atlantic coast around the summer of 1960, said Point Breeze Fire Chief Marty Ingram.

2019 budget will provide benefits ... in the future
The recent budget was a game changer with, at last, a surplus, money in the pocket for most people and no new taxes.
But given the current lukewarm economic conditions, with property prices tumbling, many families suffering mortgage stress, and consumers sitting on their wallets, a fiscal stimulus is just what we need, and we have got it in spades.
There was a plethora of tax cuts, but they are so complex and have been promised, in some cases, so far in the future, that it is extremely difficult for anyone to get their head around them.
For example, from July 1, 2024 a reduction in the 32.5 per cent marginal rate to 30 per cent is promised. That's five years away!
Meanwhile, the non-refundable Low and Middle Income Tax Offset (LMITO) will be increased from $530 to $1080 per annum, while the base amount increases from $200 to $255 per annum. This is scheduled to happen progressively over the next four financial years.
Working that out would be a challenging question in an advanced mathematics paper.
Thankfully, there were few changes to superannuation, which puts the Coalition way at odds with Labor.
If Labor does get elected, they have promised a mini-Budget before the end of the calendar year - one including huge changes to superannuation, if they persevere with the policies they have announced to date. These include an end to the refund of excess franking credits, a reduction in the non-concessional cap from $100,000 to $75,000 and a reduction in the threshold where the 30 per cent contribution tax cuts in, to $200,000.
Labor has also promised to remove two policies introduced by the Coalition that are specifically targeted towards women. These are the ability to claim a tax deduction for personal contributions even if an employer is contributing for you and catch-up contributions - which are designed to allow women who have been absent from the workforce to make up for lost time.
The major change to superannuation in the budget was an extension of the work test from 65 to the new pensionable age of 67. This will enable more unemployed people to top up their superannuation if they think that is appropriate for them.
For years, the Coalition has been trying to abolish the work test and let everybody contribute to superannuation until age 75. But for some reason - it has never been explained - both Labor and the Greens have always opposed it.
Aged care is a more challenging issue each year and on budget day the Parliamentary Budget Office released predictions that government revenue may fall by around $20 billion within the next 10 years, due to fewer working-age people, and therefore less tax.
They also forecast that spending on aged care will rise by $16 billion over the same period.
The potential impact is frightening, particularly when you look at the scale of the measures that were proposed in the budget. For starters, the budget proposes additional funding for residential aged care by adding 13,500 residential care places.
While this may give us some warm feelings, the fact is that aged care places are running at just 90 per cent occupancy right now. Nothing to see here.
The elephant in the room is homecare. Yes, in recognition of the fact that most older people would rather age at home, the government has promised to provide funding over five years for the release of an additional 10,000 home packages. That's just 2000 per year.
Right now, there are nearly 128,000 people on the waiting list for home funding and the queue is growing by around 1000 people a week. What is proposed is not even a drop in the bucket.

BEAUTY// Kiko Milano Cosmetics Haul
Kiko Cosmetics is an Italian brand that sells affordable make up as well as skin care. They've recently opened a branch in Newcastle so I thought I'd pop and pick up a lipstick and ended up with 2 lipsticks, 2 lip liners, a highlighter, 2 eyeshadows and nail polish. WOOPS. No Ragrets!
1 | Velvet Mat Lipstick shade 604 | £6.90
2 | Smart Lipstick shade 923 | £3.90
I've been lusting after a purple lipstick for so long and I've finally found the perfect
'barbie purple'-esque shade. It has a glossy finish which is a first for me as I'm a big fan of matte lipsticks. This would look amazing for evening or even a day time look. The packaging is simple and sleek, almost as nice as Mac lipsticks.
3 | Color Sphere shade 36 | £2.90
Photos doesn't this eyeshadow any justice. This gorgous blue/black shimmery shadow has holographic-y glitters that would create the perfect evening bold smoke eye. I can't wait to have good play around with it. The packaging could be improved but I can't complain as it comes at an amazing £2.90!
4 | Water Eyeshadow shade 204 | £4.40
This eyeshadow can be used both wet or dry. Using it dry can create a blended out smokey look. this would look amazing as a transition colour. You can dip your brush in some water and use this shadow as a cream for vibrant effect. I think this would also look good underneath the bottom lash line. Again the packaging is simple and professional looking.
5 | Radiant Touch Creamy Stick Highlighter shade 100 | £4.20
Ive been after a cream highlighter for a while but I didn't want to break the bank. So I picked up this golden creamy highlighter which blends like a dream. It has a nice glow without looking too glittery. The packaging makes it easy to apply.
6 | Quick Dry Nail Lacquer shade 817 | £2.90
After hearing a shop assistant rave on about how fast this nail varnish I couldn't help frantically throwing it in my basket. The value is just amazing. I can't wait to try this mauvey brown polish.
7 | Smart Lip Pencil shade 917 & 710 | £1.20
I thought I'd pick up a lavander lipliner to go with my Smart Lipstick shade 923. This shade would also look nice on its own. The value is just amazing at only £1.20, I thought I might as well pick up a dark berry shade to line my Mac Diva matte lipstick.
Overall thoughts? ...
I think I might have found my new favourite make up brand. Kiko cosmetics is super affordable yet super luxurious. The packaging is sleek and professional looking. Unfortunately the shades don't have names so its harder to remember shades or recognise them without opening it. Apart from that I can't fault anything. The quality so far, after swatching, is amazing. Still need to test out the longevity of them. I will definitely be back for more!
I've been waiting so long to get my hands on this beauty box from Cohorted. Cohorted is a company that provides monthly beauty boxes which you can purchase for £19+p&p. However, I've heard that they're changing it to a monthly subscription service soon. They include amazing items from well known brands such as Cargo, Mac, Sleek, BareVitamins etc. The box always includes at least 2 full sized items. You basically get more than you pay for, literally. No wonder they sell out so fast every month.
I literally ran to the door as soon as I seen the delivery man outside. This little piece of heaven comes in a beautiful little black box.
1 | Cargo Eyeshadow Quaf | RRP £10
This eyeshadow pallete is perfect on the go as it's very compact. It comes with 4 beautiful warm toned eyeshadows that are great for an everyday look. When I first swatched it the pigmentation wasn't that great however, I found that once applied with a brush the colours stood out more. These shadows are also very blendable. I've found myself reaching for this palette for the past couple of days instead of my Naked palette.
2 | Laura Geller Baked Impressions Eyshadow Duo in Fine Wines | RRP £15
The colour of these eyeshadows are so dreamy. It has purple undertones which I think look so flattering. You could easily do a simple smokey eye using this Duo alone. The pigmentation is amazing.
3 | BareMinerals I.d Soft Focusing Brush | RRP £20
This travel friendly brush is super soft can be used for both powder and liquid products. I've used it to apply blusher and I was pretty impressed
4 | BareVitamins Skin Rev-er upper | RRP £15
This serum acts promises the same things as a primer whilst it conditions your skin with healthy ingredients. The only difference is that you wear it under your moisturiser. I've used it a couple of times and I feel like it has made my skin look a lot smoother. I don't think its improved the wear of my foundation though.
5 | Molton Brown Relaxing Yuan Zhi Body Cream 30ml | RRP £6
Cohorted was kind enough to squeeze a bonus item. This stuff smells amazing and feels amazing on the skin. I might have to purchase the full bottle!
Overall I am over the moon with this little box. I paid £22 for thing worth £66 #WINNING!

With love in the loving cup,
Whenever you're wrong, admit it;
Whenever you're right, shut up.
Ogden Nash (A Word To Husbands)
One thing that bugs me sure and often, is how a man and a woman can stay together in matrimony, year after year, decade after decade, when it is so obvious to me that men and women are not meant to stay together.
And since I began with Ogden Nash, I'll finish with some favorite lines, also from Nash.
Ps- I want to thank my ma and baba for not listening to their wiser instincts and quitting a long time ago. Today their marriage turns 28 years old.

peanut butter blondies and chocolate frosting
Apparently I posted about peanut butter blondies two months ago. These are different, not as gooey, and there's chocolate on top! I love things in bar form. This recipe is interesting because the batter is super thick, almost like a cookie dough. Don't taste it before they're cooked or maybe you will eat all the dough. This recipe is from Joy the Baker, who's blog I loooove. These are delicious, quick, and yummy.
Peanut butter blondies and chocolate frosting
Adapted from Joy the Baker
10 T butter
2 c dark brown sugar
1 c peanut butter (I used chunky)
2 eggs
2 t vanilla
a pinch of salt
2 c flour mix
1/2 t xanthan gum
1 1/2 t baking powder
Preheat oven to 325. Grease a 13x9 pan.
Melt the butter in the microwave, then stir in the brown sugar. Add the peanut butter, then the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla. Stir in the salt, flour mix, xanthan gum and baking powder. Spread batter in the pan, and bake about 30-35 minutes until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean. Cool completely before frosting.
Chocolate frosting
I had some trouble with this recipe, I ended up adding a bit more milk and not all of the sugar. I used dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate, and soy milk, but I don't think that mattered.
6 T softened butter
3 T cocoa
a big pinch of salt
1 1/2 c powdered sugar
3-5 T milk
3/4 c chocolate chips, melted
Beat the butter and cocoa powder and salt. Add 1 T milk and 1/2 c sugar, cream, and then add 2 T milk and the remaining cup of powdered sugar. Stir in the chocolate chips, and add a little more milk if you need to. Spread over the cooled blondies.
Also, don't eat this frosting with a spoon. You might not have any for your blondies.

Peanut butter and chocolate? I'm so there!ReplyDelete
I found your post through Joy the Baker. I love it when other people try recipes before I do. Now I know for sure that these will be wonderful. Officially added to my "to-make" list. thanks!ReplyDelete
Looks wonderful!!! Yum!ReplyDelete
I'm drooling. When I first looked at the picture the chocolate threw me through a loop since I don't usually expect to see so much of it on a blondie but these sound SO good.
It's too early in the morning for me to be craving a piece.. but that just looks amazing!ReplyDelete
MMmmmm, those looks wonderful! A big icy cold glass of milk would be awesome with one.ReplyDelete
My all time favourite combo! Looks amazing.ReplyDelete
