I started PT again about 2 weeks ago. After my sessions last week and again today, I got sick. Felt light-headed, weak, dead tired. I'm not really sure how to explain it, I just feel horrible!! After PT today we made a quick stop at a small store. I used my crutches there and by the time I got back in the car I was just about in tears. Right now it feels like it takes everything I have to move even one muscle in my body.
I honestly don't do too much at PT. A few stretches, trunk stabilzation exercises, leg presses on the machine, lunges at the parallel bars. I exercise for less than an hour!
Why do I feel like I just ran 10 miles on no sleep and no food? Could the little bit I do be too much for me right now? I just can't believe my body can't handle that! What can I do to keep from feeling like this? I did more than this when I was in rehab!!!

Over time the perception of Javascript has changed from a language suitable for small bits of coding on a web page, to one where serious applications can be developed. With the language having an EMCA standard and with Douglas Crockford's excellent book JavaScript: The Good Parts showing you how to make the most of the language while avoiding the unfortunate historical yuckky bits, it has the underlying capabilities of a serious language.
Below I've listed just some technologies that are programmed with Javascript.
Client Side
- Web Browser
- Flash
- Adobe AIR
- QT Application Framework
Server Side
- Over 35 different options for running JavaScript on the server. Take a look at the list on wikipedia
Just a couple of highlights from the list are;
With application and srvices created as mash-ups of other services, in the future Javascript is going to be the glue on the server as well as the client that will tie it all together. Yahoo YQL hints at where this might go in the future, where your 'application' is just Javascript code located across many servers coordinating other services, rather than a whole application installed on a server.
This is why Javascript will be the NBL. Not because it's the 'best' language, has the most features, is the only language developers want to use. But because one language will allow you to target so many platforms. As the javascript engines performance increases it will move into more and more development areas, it is only a matter of time...

Fall Newsletter
Make Some Noise this Fall!
Alianait has teamed up with sponsors, funders, communities, schools, Quality of Life and the Embrace Life Council (to name a few) to bring you the 4th annual Embrace Life & Mental Health Awareness Tour in the Qikiqtaaluk and Kivalliq regions. Not only is this our most expansive tour yet, it is an all-female tour with performances by Beatrice Deer, Aasiva, Susan Aglukark and the headliner Looee Arreak. From Iqaluit Looee will travel to Rankin Inlet, Arviat, Chesterfield Inlet, and Baker Lake throughout the month of September. In Baker Lake the concert will fall on the closing night of the Nunavut Suicide Prevention Summit and also feature Susan Aglukark and Aasiva. From there she will return to the Qikiqtaaluk and head north to Igloolik, and to Arctic Bay with Aasiva who will then continue to Resolute alone. Colleen Nakashuk, who performs as Aasiva, has an airy and lively sound that is shaped by her melodious voice set against playful ukulele. With Inuktitut lyrics and delicate throat singing elements interwoven throughout, her music offers a fresh, buoyant and distinctive twist on indie folk.
Our Fall Concert Series kicks off with the Mental Health Awareness Tour opener on September 8th which features Beatrice Deer as well as Looee Arreak. Beatrice Deer is an award winning singer-songwriter from Nunavik. She has been making music since 2007 as a way to heal herself and share her message with the world. Her fifth record, marks a significant milestone in the history of Inuindie music (a genre Deer pioneered), as this is the first time she composed all the songs' instrumentation as well as the lyrics. She sings in three languages: Inuktitut, English, and French. Her collaborators include luminaries from the likes of Land of Talk, The Barr Brothers, Stars, Timber Timbre, Bell Orchestre, Suuns, and executive producer Michael Felber. www.beatricedeerband.com.
Looee Arreak is also an award winning Inuktitut singer-songwriter originally from Pangnirtung. She is passionate about Inuit language preservation and creativity. She has released multiple albums to her name, is currently recording a new one, and has toured all over Nunavut & Nunavik. Her music is in constant play on CBC Radio One and is covered by young Inuktitut musicians who look up to her as a mentor. Her songs are lyrical, full of beautiful sound and capture themes of hope, strength, playfulness and a love of family and land.
On October 20th we are ecstatic to present the soul of the north: the Trade-Offs will be performing to a packed house where you can dance the night away to their blues and rock & roll sounds. www.thetradeoffsmusic.com.
We will finish up the Fall concert series with a banjo & guitar duo The Small Glories. Veteran singer-songwriters in their own right, they teamed up in 2016 and haven't looked back. Their music is part rock, part folk and always a good time! You can see them and a MYSTERY BAND at the Inuksuk High School on November 24th. www.thesmallglories.com.

Festival Highlights
We recently finished the 14th annual Alianait Arts Festival featuring 4 days and nights of amazing performances, brilliant sunshine and smiling faces. Three evening performances were sold out, including the closing concert which was heralded as "possibly the best performance ever" and which featured the Ukiuqaqtumi Tautunnguanirmik (Arctic Dreams) Indigenous Collaboration; the Maori looping phenomenon Māmā Mihirangi and her Haka dancers the Māreikura; the classically trained cellist Cris Derksen and the King and Queen of the northern pop scene Twin Flames.
Other artists of note were returning Old Man Luedecke and Nanook; along with southern artists Séan McCann, Leela Gilday, This Way North and Jane's Party; plus Nunavut's Agaaqtoq, Leetia Kalluk and Lazarus Qattalik. Each musician brought their all to the stage, and gave at least one free day-time performance and/or workshop for the public.
The free daily activities at the Big Top Tent and Elders Qammaq were a big hit. Children made clouds and had their faces painted. Refreshments and healthy, homemade snacks were provided by the Inclusion Café and in the evening audiences could purchase artisanal coffee and kombucha from the refreshments area, courtesy of the Black Heart Café. All the jams were a success, especially the Global Beats Jam and our workshops included Throat Singing, Drum Dance, Inuit Games, Haka and Greenlandic Mask Dance.

A light and sparkly butter cake for Spring
Today is the first day of Spring and I thought it was perfect timing to share this cake with which I recently fell completely in love. I made it over the weekend to celebrate Stella turning six months (!!!) and it was so festive and pretty I knew it would become a keeper in our household. Make it for Spring, make it for Easter, make it for Sunday dinner or just because you love someone.
Six months. Woosh! I thought time flew by when Jack was that young, but with a toddler keeping me busy at the same time things are going even faster. Stella is the happiest baby I have ever encountered and I'm so lucky she's part of our tribe. She smiles the moment she opens her eyes and every time I glance at her. She's curious and wants to have her hands in EVERYTHING. Her favorite person is her brother, by far, and she delights in watching him play, color, "read" to her, and run around wildly. I'm completely smitten with her and when I realized that six month milestone was coming around I decided to celebrate, even if only by myself, with an excessively happy cake. It's fresh and light and sweet and pink and everything that comes to mind when I think about my little star baby. Stella girl, this cake will always be yours.
I found a recipe for a basic yellow butter cake in my grandmother's stash. I don't remember her ever making it but it's exactly the cake she would have loved to have been served at a frilly spring tea party. It's a classic, no-fail ratio of ingredients and I decided to swap in crème fraîche for the buttermilk. In my opinion, it has a little more "sparkle" this way. A fully frosted cake felt like overkill so I went with a naked cake flavored with raspberries from the freezer (also much less effort!) and topped it all off with a perfectly pink camellia from our garden, another nod to spring. If you prefer a fully frosted cake (and I wouldn't blame you!) you can use seedless raspberry jam or lemon curd as the filling between layers and you'll have plenty of buttercream to frost the outside in a traditional style. Just be sure to pipe a little frosting around the outer rim of each layer as you assemble it to create a "dam" and then fill in with the curd or jam. This will prevent it from squishing out and bleeding into your beautiful buttercream. You can also omit the raspberries entirely from the buttercream and simply color with food coloring, but then it's not really the same cake, is it?
A few notes about storing:
This butter cake is extremely moist and, when wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, will keep in the freezer for about 30 days or in the refrigerator for about 4-5. It will keep at room temperature for 2. If the cake is completely frosted, you can store it for these same time frames completely assembled. The frosting helps seal in the moisture. Just be sure to place some plastic wrap on the exposed cake as you start to cut into it. If you decide to frost it in the naked style as I have it written here, it will dry out more quickly without the added frosting. If you do not plan to serve right away, I recommend chilling the assembled cake for an hour or two in the fridge to set the buttercream, and then lightly wrapping plastic wrap around the outside.
A few notes about timing your assembly:
First, I will tell you that YouTube and other cake decorating specific blogs will give you far better advice on how to decorate cakes than I can. Use them! As for my own advice, cold cakes are the easiest to work with and result in fewer stray crumbs. I like to cool my cakes completely, cut them into my layers while they are soft, and then wrap them up and put them in the freezer straight away (or the refrigerator if I plan to frost it later that day). When I'm ready to assemble the cake, I make my buttercream and pull the cake out of the fridge as soon as the frosting is done. If I made the cake in advance and it's in the freezer, I'll put it in the fridge the morning I make my frosting to thaw out a bit, or put it out on the counter directly from the freezer when I'm starting to make the buttercream. If the cake is completely frozen when you start to frost it, it will cause the buttercream to harden up and it will be more difficult to work with. Buttercream can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for a few days (covered with plastic wrap), but you'll need to bring it back to room temperature and re-whip it to get it nice and fluffy. I just don't like to be bothered with that extra step and dirty dishes, but it's completely doable and may make your life easier if you're having a party. Wait until just before your party or, better yet, serving, to top with fresh berries or flowers.
Crème Fraîche Cake
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting your pans
1 1/2 cups cake flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup whole milk, room temperature
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for greasing your pans
2 cups sugar
3 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Preheat your oven to 350F. Lightly grease two 8x2-inch round cake pans with butter and lightly dust with flour. Line the bottom of each pan with a round of parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, sift together both flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk thoroughly to make sure everything is fully incorporated and set aside.
In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, combine the milk and crème fraîche.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter until smooth. Add the sugar and continue mixing on medium-high until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs and egg yolks one at a time, mixing and scraping down after each addition to incorporate.
With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients in three parts, alternating with the milk mixture, and beginning and ending with the flour. Stop to scrape down the bowl after each addition. You can stop before the final flour addition and mix that in by hand to avoid overworking the batter.
Divide the batter evenly between the two pans and place in the middle of the oven. Bake until lightly golden brown on top and a cake tester comes out clean when inserted in the middle, about 30-35 minutes. You may also want to carefully rotate the cakes about halfway to ensure even cooking. Allow to cool in the pan about 20 minutes and then gently turn the cakes out onto a wire rack to finish cooling completely.
Raspberry Buttercream (adapted from Vintage Cakes)
6 to 10 ounces raspberries (you can use frozen raspberries, just be sure to thaw first)
6 egg whites
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups unsalted butter cut into approximately 1-inch cubes, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Over a bowl, mash the raspberries through a fine-mesh strainer to catch all of the seeds. Set the collected purée and juices aside and toss the seeds.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the egg whites and sugar. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Whisking constantly to avoid cooking the eggs, gently heat the mixture until very hot to the touch, the sugar is dissolved, and the mixture is smooth and fluid.
Remove the egg mixture from heat and place the bowl onto the stand mixer. Use the whisk attachment and beat on medium-high speed until the whites are stiff and glossy and will hold a stiff peak when you lift the whisk out of the mixture. The bowl should also be cool to the touch - continue mixing on low speed for another minute or two if it is not.
Switch your speed back to medium-high and begin adding the butter a piece at a time, mixing well after each addition and stopping frequently to scrape down the bowl. The buttercream will inevitably look curdled at some point. Continue adding your butter, have faith, keep mixing and eventually it will smooth out again.
When all of the butter has been added and the buttercream is fluffy and smooth and creamy, you can add your salt and raspberry purée. Start with about half of the raspberries and work your way up until you have the desired level of flavor and color.
To Assemble the Cake:
Using a serrated knife, slice each layer in half horizontally. You should also even up the tops of your cakes if they are at all domed. Wrap tightly in a double layer of plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about an hour. This will make your cake easier to work with and you'll have fewer crumbs.
When you're ready to assemble, use a dab of frosting to affix one layer to an 8-inch cardboard cake round. Use about 3/4 of a cup of buttercream and, using a large offset spatula, spread evenly onto the top of the layer. Place another layer on top and repeat, alternating buttercream and cake, until all four layers are assembled. Now is the time to see if everything is standing even and, with clean hands, gently adjust until your cake is straight.
Pile the rest of your buttercream on the top of the cake and smooth it across the top and start to work your way evenly down the sides, stopping every so often to scrape excess buttercream from your spatula back into your bowl. If you pick up any crumbs on your spatula, wipe that into a separate container and save it (for spreading on graham crackers!). You can clean up the sides using a clean offset spatula, a frosting smoother, or a bench scraper.
Top with fresh berries, flowers, or sprinkles and serve with a very cold glass of milk. Enjoy!

The original location at 2800 West Evans boasts the same hours but doesn't have a dining room, whereas this new joint can accommodate a whole posse of obnoxious inebriants.

Monday, Dec. 3, marked the 200th anniversary of Illinois becoming the 21st state. To honor the milestone, the Illinois Bicentennial Commission hosted a birthday party at Navy Pier celebrating all things "Born, Built and Grown in Illinois."
Many stars graced the stage representing the arts, sports, commerce and government. Gov. Bruce Rauner welcomed the crowd, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra played "Happy Birthday" and there was even a 1,000-pound cheesecake made by the Chicago family-owned Eli's Cheesecake.
Illinois REALTORS® were integrally involved in the Bicentennial events this past year with more than 35 local association legacy projects and the official dedication of Bicentennial Plaza, a REALTOR® Community Partnership on Aug. 26. Many of those involved as "Founders" of the Plaza attended the program as well as Illinois leadership.
"REALTORS® were at the table early in the planning stages for the Bicentennial year," said President Matt Difanis. "We offered our partnership and support throughout the planning stages with REALTOR® Jim Kinney serving on the Bicentennial Commission and REALTORS® working with heart throughout 2018 all across the state."
Among the program highlights was honoring our Illinois veterans for their service through the bicentennial "Honor 200" project. Veterans stood as the respective U.S. Armed Services songs were played, including Illinois REALTORS® Past President Doug Carpenter and National Association of REALTORS® representative John Flor.
With a nod to the future, Governor-elect J.B. Pritzker also addressed the crowd to ring in the next century for Illinois.
Take a look back at our REALTORS® working with heart throughout the bicentennial year at www.IllinoisRealtors.org/Bicentennial.

A man from Yorkshire, England, has informed his wife that he is willing to let her leave tonight's dishes until tomorrow morning in aid of International Women's Day.
Barry "Bazza" Bigglesby claims his wife, Cora, is free to do whatever she wants this evening as long as she cooks him dinner, makes him a cuppa and doesn't disturb him while the football is on.
"She's a real grafter is our Cora so I really don't mind letting her put her feet up tonight," explained Bazza earlier today. "Once the dinner's on the table when I get home from work, I get a cup of tea and biscuit when I've finished eating and she doesn't try to watch anything on the telly, she's free to do whatever she likes."
"She's even allowed to leave the dishes until the morning if she likes," he continued. "Although, if I'm being honest, she's got a lot of other jobs to do in the morning so she'd probably be better off just sucking it up and doing them tonight anyway, but it's her day so I'll leave the decision up to her."
Wunderground also spoke to Cora earlier, "If that prick thinks he's getting his dinner served to him when he gets home from work he's got another thing coming," she told us. "He can pick himself up a chippie on the way home because I'm not even going to be there. I'm going to see the Chippendales with the girls and getting pissed up."
"He also thinks I'll be getting up early in the morning to make his sandwiches and get the kids ready for school," she added. "But, little does he know, I'll probably be nose deep in a bag of white by the time his alarm clock goes off so he'll have to do it all himself, the lazy fucker can look after himself for one day of the year."
According to experts, If you have treated the women in your life in a similar way to Bazza, you're a cunt. Simples.

NEW DELHI, India — The peace process between India and Pakistan is now "irreversible," leaders of the two longtime rival nations said Monday, announcing a series of agreements to increase trade and cross-border travel in Kashmir.
With Pakistani President Gen. Pervez Musharraf standing beside him, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said the two had agreed to continue talks on the divided region of Kashmir, the heart of decades of disputes, in "a sincere and purposeful manner" until a settlement was found.
Singh, reading from a joint statement, said the two leaders "determined that the peace process was now irreversible."
The two countries agreed to increase the frequency of a cross-Kashmir bus service that started earlier this month and to identify more places along the Kashmir frontier that could be opened to traffic.
They also agreed to revive a joint commission to boost business ties and to open additional consulates by the end of the year. They also vowed not to allow terrorism to thwart the peace process.
Islamic militants upset
After the summit, separatist militants issued a statement accusing Musharraf of abandoning the cause of the Kashmiri people.
Nuclear standoff"Musharraf has sold out Kashmir for trade and tourism," said the statement signed by a spokesman for four Islamic rebel groups faxed to The Associated Press, adding that Musharraf had "knelt before India."
"We will not give up the holy war, Jihad, until Kashmir becomes free," warned the statement. Its authenticity could not be verified.
At the meeting, the two sides agreed to allow the movement of trucks across their borders, to create a trade group encouraging joint ventures between Indian and Pakistani businesses and to cooperate on meeting both countries' energy needs.
"Enhanced economic and commercial cooperation would contribute to the well-being of the peoples of the two countries," Singh said, reading from the statement, adding the two "leading economies of South Asia should work together for greater prosperity of the region."
Musharraf upbeat
Earlier, Musharraf said the talks with the Indian leader were more successful than he had expected but warned that settling the Kashmir dispute would take a long time.
Musharraf said there had been a change in attitude in Pakistan about Kashmir, which is split between the neighbors but claimed in its entirety by both. The two nuclear armed rivals have fought two wars over it.
"Domestically there is a realization that the military option is not the option any more," he told Indian journalists. "The strategy of a coercive diplomacy is no more an option."
"Our achievements on all issues are more than what I expected," Musharraf said. But on Kashmir, he said, "it will need a lot of time and wisdom to arrive at a settlement. Let us go step by step."
Political observers said the talks were a success.
"It is a big push forward," said M.K. Rasgotra, a former Indian diplomat. "Both sides have shown flexibility and displayed pragmatism, especially on the Kashmir issue."
Talat Masood, a former general in the Pakistani army, said Islamabad appeared reconciled to "India's position on the territorial aspect of Kashmir."
The decisions marked a major shift in how India and Pakistan have approached Kashmir, said C. Raja Mohan, a New Delhi-based professor of South Asian studies.
Raja Mohan said the two countries appeared headed for an agreement on tackling regional terrorism.
Musharraf assured Singh that Pakistan won't allow its territory to be used for terrorism against India.
More than a dozen Islamic militant groups are fighting in Indian-controlled Kashmir for the region's independence or its merger with mostly Muslim Pakistan. Most groups are based in Pakistan-controlled Kashmir. The 15-year insurgency has claimed more than 66,000 lives.

Career at RWY
07 June 2012
My Experience as an Intern at RWY (Wong Jyh Ling)
When I started my three-month legal attachment program in Messrs. Richard Wee & Yip on 20
February 2012, I didn't know what to expect. To be honest, all I knew was that I had to complete this program by hook or by crook, and I had to do my best, as it would ultimately benefit me and make it easier for me to understand the subjects that I would be taking in my final degree year in Multimedia University.
(Well, that, and also that if I didn't pass this program, I would not be able to graduate on time… But that's a different matter.)
On my first day of attachment, Mr. Richard gave me an organizer
(two, actually
) and an exercise book, making it very clear that in order to be a good lawyer, you must be organized. I was also given a reference book on conveyancing procedures to study and understand the subject better.
Thereafter, I spent my first week in the firm mainly focusing on general/clerical tasks. I have also helped out in the Conveyancing department by doing some basic tasks such as filling in CKHT forms and preparing letters for presentation of documents to the Income Tax department. Puan Sarah had also given me a closed file to study in order for me to understand the general procedures of sub-sale of properties. Although I did not manage to participate in every procedure for a sub-sale, Puan Sarah would nevertheless try to help me develop a better understanding of the process by explaining to me via various "Conveyancing 101" sessions. Miss Penny had also given me opportunities to compile relevant documents for presentation to the land office, call clients, and prepare letters for presentation.
Apart from that, I was also given the opportunity of helping out with the litigation files. This experience is truly an eye-opening one, and it made me realize that being a lawyer really isn't as easy or glamorous as per the impression I had after watching one too many reruns of Ally McBeal when I was younger.
For instance, a lawyer must be very meticulous in his work. Both Partners of the firm are truly my inspiration as they would pay attention to every single detail of the work that they're dealing with. This is very important as every mistake could lead to an unwanted result. The legal associates of the firm, Mr. Ezhan and freshly called to bar Mr. Ng also followed in the Partners' footsteps and the firm treats every client's case with extra care and attention.
I have also learned that it is very important to be organized and disciplined in our work. An unorganized lawyer would attend to his case in court unprepared, and justice cannot wait for a lawyer's endless flipping of documents in court.
Of course, being a legal attachment student didn't mean that I would be treated like a normal student. Both Mr. Richard and Mr. Yip had given me a taste of what it's like to be a real lawyer by allowing me to handle some files on my own
(under their strict supervision)
. It was a risk that they chose to take, and I am grateful for being given the chance to do so.
Moreover, I have also learned to do a lot of things, such as: doing legal researches on various areas of law; drafting Letter of Demand;
(an attempt at)
drafting a Submission after Trial; attending full hearings in court
(and recording the Notes of Proceedings
); attending an arbitration matter in KLRCA; participating in the preparation for an Injunction matter and more.
One thing that I appreciated most about attaching in RWY was that it has allowed me to grow from my mistakes. Granted, I still make a fair share of mistakes today… But what I have learned from RWY is that to err is human; what matters most is for you to find out how to remedy the situation as quickly and efficiently as possible, and to never repeat the same mistake again. I have also learned that it is okay to ask whenever you don't understand the task at hand, and all members of the firm would never hesitate to lend a helping hand.
That being said, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for all the careless mistakes I've made during my time in the firm, and thank you so much for never giving up on me.
So thank you, RWY, for your patience and kind guidance; for treating me like a part of the amazing family; and for giving me a chance to observe, make mistakes, and learn for the past three months. I am forever indebted.

Missing by Costas Gavras 1982
a film about the American backed coup in Chile 1973 ousting President Allende by General Pinochet to protect American Interests as usual.
added by steve2000a Music of Vangelis for end credits. End Credits/Finale (Missing) Music by Vangelis
Missing is a profoundly disturbing political film based on a true story. Very little is exaggerated as the Neocons & the Religious Right and their fascist friends have claimed. Most Neocons and other twisted patriots American or Canadian believe such a film should have never been shown in theatres. They see it as a subversive anti-American and therefore anti-capitalist and anti-Christian and anti-Western film. They see nothing at all wrong with executing unarmed students, professors, scholars, musicians, artists, journalists, poets, novelists, social workers and all community activists and other so called agitators or free thinkers.
As film Missing is one of the truly great films like Citizen Kane . It is a mater piece of editing which turns what could have been a rather obvious piece of politicing or as a political biopic. Instead Gavras has turned the story into a mystery in which we are given clues along the way from Flashbacks and flashbacks within flashbacks. The director uses some great bits of juxtapositioning such as a crowd of rich people at a party singing along to the pop song my ding-a-ling as we hear gunshots and then the well to do go out on a balcony and applaud a general and soldiers who pass by on the street - possibly it is General Pinochet himself. Or a night scene in which soldiers are shooting people who are out after curfew - suddenly a white stallion is being chased by soldiers in a jeep shooting using a 50 calibre machine gun. It is a world turned topsy-turvy where the madmen are running the asylum.
From: trauld at YouTube Missing by Costas Gavras 1982 (part 1 ) the rest is available at YouTube Spreading American Values. Missing is the story of a young America caught up in th Military Coup in Chile. General Pinochet backed by the American government and the American people and the complicity of much of the West overthrew the legally elected and popular President Allende. But even thirty five years later one will get hate e-mail just for mentioning it. America more often than not supports the anti-democratic forces in favor of friendly fascist or authoritarian regimes. Americans prefer to drink the Kool-Aid rather than face the truth. they prefer ignorance . They rationalize this by claiming all true Americans are patriots who would not dare question their government, the CIA, the Pentagon - Missing part 1.
This next clip is a pivotal scene at the end of the film.
After being lied to again and again by officials they finally reveal that his son was executed . Mr. Horman /Jack Lemmon sheds his old self & his view that America could do no wrong. He is a typical American who is patriotic and believes in his country. Now he knows what those in power in America are capable. They gave the order to have his son arrested, tortured and executed because he knew too much . Should those who order such actions be treated any better ???

A new study released by the International Transport Forum (ITF) has examined ways to improve compliance with road freight transport regulations through the use of new data sources and technical solutions but that there are challenges.
Initiated by the ITF's Corporate Partnership Board, the report also reviews possibilities for new approaches to the broader governance of road freight as the availability of Big Data in transport facilitates more data-driven policy making with more targeted and flexible regulatory frameworks as well as more efficient enforcement mechanisms.
The ITF says that while clear potential for data-driven approaches to regulating and enforcing road freight transport can be identified, a number of specific challenges still need to be overcome to allow their widespread implementation. Internationally, the uniform level of readiness for implementation of technologies, policy approaches and economic development does not currently exist, requiring a two-tier system to provide minimum functionalities or even a specific separate system for those less technologically advanced.
The report recommends to:
- Use currently available data within existing frameworks.
- Consider a completely new data-driven regulatory approach.
- Investigate the best uses of new technologies, systems, and data science.
- Investigate applicability of wider and less-structured big data sets.
- Consider impacts of automation of road freight vehicles.

RICHMOND, Va. -- It's a long-honored tradition and duty for the Virginia Capitol Police to protect the governor during his four-year term. That will be no different as Governor-elect Ralph Northam prepares to be sworn-in on Saturday.
"Hundreds of hours of planning have gone into this," said Capitol Police spokesman Joe Macenka. "It is obviously not the first rodeo for Virginia Capitol Police."
Northam will become the Commonwealth's 73rd governor during an inauguration with a turnout predicted in the thousands.
"We have hundreds of law-enforcement personnel that will be here in uniform and in plainclothes," Macenka said.
As showers poured onto the preparations at Capitol Square throughout the day Friday, some wondered whether the rain may damper attendance.
"There was a fair amount of rain years ago for Governor Terry McAuliffe's inauguration. A lot of people braved the elements and it turned out to be a nice crowd," Macenka explained.
Attendance didn't falter during bitter temperatures and a cold breeze that blew during former Governor Douglas Wilder's inauguration on the South Portico of the state Capitol in 1990.
Fortunately, for this inauguration, the National Weather Service predicted the rain will end by the time gates are scheduled to open at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday.
About 4,000 people are expected to attend the inauguration and parade, according to the Northam Inaugural Committee.
The temporary grandstands that could seat 5,000 have been standing for weeks, but will be taken down after the inauguration.
Last minute touches like wheeling in loud speakers, mic checks, and installing signage was completed throughout Friday.
A last minute guide to the inauguration of Virginia's 73rd governor can be found here.

First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) and partners in the ACT/
I wanted to provide you with information that I thought you might be interested in regarding the first home buyers grant and how it applies to a couple. In my case the property will be solely purchased in my name and the home loan will be solely in my name. After speaking with the ACT Department of Revenue they have advised that should my partner wish to apply for the first home buyers grant in the future he would not be eligible. This is because on the form he would be nominated as a non-applicant partner which means he receives the benefit by living in my house despite nothing being in his name. Obviously I am not happy with this but there is little in can do!

I had decided back in June that I needed a portable light weight laptop in order to study and/or kill time during my daily one hour morning commute to San Francisco and back. There is nothing really out there that is comparable to MacBook Air, I searched and searched.
MacBook Air – My First Mac
Last weekend I decided to check out MacBook Air at the Apple store in Valley Fair Mall, San Jose. As usual, the store was packed with people and there was hardly any room to play with the demos. My main concern was the screen, I didn't want it to be very small. 11″ Air was too small and reminded me of those ugly netbooks. 13″ Air on the other hand looked amazing, specs made sense and I had my pick.
Here's what I got:
13-inch (1280 x 800)
1.7 GHz Intel Core i5
4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
120 GB Flash drive
Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1
Cost: $1299+tax.
I am not a fan of warranties or support plans but Apple Care sounds reasonably well priced for consumers who prefer that extra cushion, $189. Apple rep that helped me with my purchase recommended I get an Epson 3-in-1 WiFi enabled printer for free after $100 mail in rebate and I went along. First I thought, yet another printer, but then I decided to go for it because it is WiFi.
Lazy Lazy !!
PC to Mac
It's too early for me to do a fair comparison but I will go over what I found to be unique to Mac. There are certain design advantages and the user interface is very intuitive. I spent close to 1 hour and was able to figure out the basics without looking at the instruction manual or online tutorials. For PC users, there are quite a few resources to help transition to a Mac.
[ad#left] There is no need for an antivirus, which is a must for a PC. Touchpad has no buttons, right click is in-fact just a tap with two fingers. Windows can be moved with three finger swipe and to scroll up or down just swipe two fingers up or down. Now, that's cool.
I miss my delete button on the keyboard, I don't think Macs have a delete function similar to PC. There is delete button that functions like a backspace. Keyboard tip: control + C is not copy, command + C is. I learned this the hard way after highlighting the entire paragraph and then deleting it by pressing control + C.
Overall, verdict
I like the way this thing is so light weight, slick and fast. Reboots in less than 5 seconds, how can you beat that? Prior Mac computers haven't enticed me but I think that's history now. I can now see myself buying a Mac desktop someday.
Have you used a Mac? Are you a PC? What do you think about the two?

blodgett enters snail mode! it transports its home for convenience, via potentially crackpot method detailed below.
step 1: formats the sd card to ext4 avec gparted
step 2: mount cart where wanted e.g.
sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb1 /media/home
step 3: set owner of cart to blodgett:
sudo chown blodgett: /media/home
[note: colon after blodgett signifies that group is changed to blodgett's group as well as changing owner to blodgett]
step 4: copy home dir into new/currently non-existent directory on cart:
cp -r –preserve=all /home/blodgett/ /media/home/blodgett
[preserve arg is for keeping of all attributes. notenote that cp /home/blodgett/* not copy hidden directories so must cp to new directory entire]
step 5: find uuid of cart typing
sudo blkid /dev/sdb1
step 6: add cart to list of things that get mounted automatically. this requires to edit the file /etc/fstab. if not done then lxdm at least don't want to log you in. (terminal login work fine, then have to run step 2.)
added following line:
UUID=(uuid from step 5) /media/home ext4 errors=remount-ro,noatime 0 2
noatime is to turn off records of last file access time. this stops it writing stuff that blodgett not really interested in.
first zero indicates to dump program that no backups are to be made of this; blodgett not using dump. two at end is order that filesystem checker (fsck) will check this one. zero for off, but blodgett want checks and had only 1 other checked volume (root).
step 7: check that everything datas ok on cart and delete home directory. (blodgett has backups elsewhere so not too paranoid about doing this.) then make symlink from old home to cart directory:
sudo rm -r /home/blodgett
sudo ln -s /media/home/blodgett /home/blodgett
step 8: reboot! blodgett not noticed any difficulties yet…
in case of interest, blodgett's cart is a PNY 16GB Class 10 (zoomfastfast) from here, 16 cashmonies:
it seem to work well in tinyshiny (eee 901) and camera (ricoh r7)
further tweakings have occurred, as eee gets slightly miffed when cart not present.
tweak 1: make a permanent mount directory:
sudo mkdir /media/home
tweak 2: stop boot process (which runs mount -a) from trying to load sd automatically by adding noauto to options field of volume in step 6:
tweak 3: add following to /etc/rc.local before "exit 0" line, to check whether sd present (-b checks for block device), and only mount if so:
# try to mount sd card if present, otherwise do nothing
if [ -b /dev/sdb ]; then
mount /dev/sdb1
if necessary, can now also mount manually with just "sudo mount /dev/sdb1"
blodgett owes thanks ici for instructions:

Topic Page: Sonata
Musical composition in several movements. In the Baroque era, sonatas were usually written for two melodic parts and a continuo. In the classical period, the sonata became a more defined form for one or two instruments. The movements, usually three or four in number, are in related keys. The first movement of a sonata is usually in sonata form, a widely used musical form. The second movement is generally slow in tempo and the third and fourth movements are faster.
(sӘnä'tӘ), in music, type of instrumental composition that arose in Italy in the 17th cent.
At first the term merely distinguished an instrumental piece from a piece with voice, which was called a cantata. Thus many early concertos, suites, and sets of variations were called sonatas. As the various instrumental forms acquired differentiated characteristics during the baroque period, the term began to identify two specific types: the sonata de chiesa, or church sonata, and the sonata da camera, or chamber sonata. Both were written most commonly for two melody instruments, usually violins or flutes, with a bass instrument and a keyboard instrument, both of which played the thorough bass (see figured bass). The sonata da chiesa was in four movements—slow, fast, slow, fast—and its contrapuntal style was largely derived from the canzone. The sonata da camera was basically a suite of dances, although nondance movements were added later.
In the late 17th cent. these two types merged into the outstanding baroque chamber music form, the trio sonata. This form was brought to perfection in the works of Arcangelo Corelli and François Couperin and adopted in the sonatas of J. S. Bach and Handel. In the later 18th cent. sonatas for groups of instruments began to be designated string quartet and symphony, and the term sonata was limited to pieces for one keyboard instrument or for one solo instrument (e.g., violin) with keyboard accompaniment. The keyboard sonata was developed in the works of rococo Italian composers such as Galuppi, G. B. Sammartini (1701–75), and P. D. Paradies (1707–91). This rococo sonata was more homophonic than the trio sonata, having one outstanding melodic line with accompanying harmonic background, such as the Alberti bass. In sonatas of this type, particularly those of C. P. E. Bach, an expressive quality and pianistic style were developed that influenced the classical sonata, perfected by Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven.
The classical sonata's movements are usually fast-slow-fast, and a minuet or scherzo is often inserted before the last movement. The first movement—and possibly one or more of the others—was in what is called sonata form. This is essentially a binary form, the first part being an exposition of two (or sometimes three) contrasted themes. The second part consists of a development of these themes and a recapitulation of the beginning exposition. Sonata form is employed in the string quartet, in the symphony, and to some extent in the concerto, as well as in the solo sonata. After the classical era the most significant development was the use of one thematic idea in all movements, in each of which the basic idea is transformed in mood and character. This type of sonata was fully realized in the Sonata in B Minor of Franz Liszt.

Mumbai: For 2016-formed Canadian Agro India, 2017-18 was packed with a lot of surprises. After witnessing a good amount of growth in 2016-17, the company saw a slump in their major and only product sold by the company in India—Canola oil. This drop in the Canola oil market was due to negative reports about the oil. But Canadian Agro India believes the demand has started to pick up.
While speaking to Free Press Journal, Canadian Agro India, CEO, Namankumar Jain said, "The market was growing good. The quality of Canadian Canola oil is of high-quality so our products were priced slightly higher. But we still have and had takers. But post the negative research by Temple University which was carried by all the leading media houses in India, there was a decline in sales. People who placed the order started cancelling." The research stated that Canola oil can worsened memory, decrease learning ability and increase weight gain in Alzheimer's disease.
The industry has been growing for last one and half year for this oil, stated Jain. There has been competition coming from companies getting oil from UAE, Ukraine and Australia. After negative publicity of Canola oil, Jain believes competitors should come together to build a different image of the oil. This is critical for the industry, he opined.
Jain pointed out one should look at the efforts taken by Olive oil companies to change the mindset among Indians about the oil. Canadian Agro India has contacted Export Development Canada (EDC), Canola Council of Canada (CCC) and Trade Commission in order to find a solution to their on-going problems around the oil. Jain is hoping to raise these concerns to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his trade council informally during his visit to Mumbai.
With strong presence in states like Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and New Delhi, Jain is optimistic of gaining the lot ground. Many retail outlets in India stopped selling Canola oil but the company were able to get their product through small stores (Kirana stores). "These small stores across various states are driving our growth." The company also has presence in Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Gujarat etc as well. "We are facing problem in South but we will look at those markets too." At one point of time, the company was able to partner with around 2, 50,000 retailers but now this number has dropped, Jain stated. The company is now relying not only on retail consumers but also on institutional customers like restaurants.
Apart from Canola oil, the company had plans to test Indian market for Canadian pulses. But due to ample rainfall and good crops this year, there was a fall in prices of grains/pulses and increase in import duty. This cost the company dearly as it had already imported 250 metric tonnes. However, Jain is quite optimistic that there will be next time for Canadian pulses in India. "As a new entrant, such market rates and import duty can hurt businesses dearly." But Jain expects the import duty to come down depending on the market needs. In the past, the Indian government had exempted pulses imported from Canada, France, and the US from mandatory fumigation at port of origin. But now it has been allowed by the Indian Government.
The company, which is also into dairy imports, is not eyeing Indian market for dairy products. But if in the future, the company wants to import them to India, it would clearly be value-added products, Jain added.
Canadian Agro India, gets Canola oil from Canada and bottles them in India, has invested USD 1 million in India in a period of a year or two. The company plans to further invest around USD 1 million in marketing and other activities in times to come. After being activity on social media post drop in the sales, the company is planning to get back into aggressive marketing mode by April 2018.

Written and performed by Maude Davey
1 – 16 July 2016
Theatre Royal Backspace
Co-presented by Maude Davey and Blue Cow Theatre.
"We see it in the visual arts. A mature artist presents a retrospective, providing a collection of the artist's development and distilled craft and knowledge over decades. Its much rarer in the performing arts. The rarest of projects - a retrospective of one performer's tiptoe through three decades of alternate cabaret, contemporary performance and queer theatre – is both hugely entertaining and deeply impressive (and moving) in its reflective power.
"Naked for most of the show, Davey's performance, more directly than any show I can recall, embraces the idea of the body as a source of deep knowledge.
"It seemingly presents so simply. Red velvet drapes, a mic-stand, a household projector and collapsible screen. Davey chats, tells some stories, sings a few songs, deftly solicits some audience participation. But within this frame Davey works such subtlety and depth. This is a performer who has something profound to say and the 10 000 hours of stage time to know how to say it.
"So many astonishingly original moments. The Jeannie Little costumed cover of pub rock anthem Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again and then the haunting late show reprieve. The dreamlike Bhutto sequence of a stag with its heart cut out. The show stopping gender bending version of Van the Man's Gloria. The final image of the show - an aerial moment with its whispers of mortality.
"How appropriate that this much lauded show from veteran Australian writer/performer, Maude Davey should be presented as part of Tasmania's performer focussed festival (FOV) and Blue Cow the local actors' theatre."
- The Mercury

D'Argento has opened the $6 favourite for the Epsom Handicap in the TAB's all-in market following the release of entries for the Group One race.
Nominations closed on Monday for the $1 million Epsom (1600m) and the two other Group One races at Randwick on September 29, the Metropolitan Handicap (2400m) and Flight Stakes (1600m).
There were 87 horses entered for the Epsom, 81 for the Metropolitan and 77 fillies for the Flight Stakes.
"We have continued to see good numbers in each of these races with many of Australia's biggest stables," Australian Turf Club general manager racing and wagering, James Ross, said.
"In particular we have great support from leading Victorian trainers including Darren Weir, Mick Price, Liam Howley and the Hayes/Dabernig team."
Sydney trainer Chris Waller has the market leader as well as Comin' Through and Unforgotten who shared the second line at $8 with Godolphin's Kementari.
D'Argento, the Rosehill Guineas winner, is entered for Saturday's Theo Marks Stakes at Rosehill after beginning his campaign with a third to stablemate Winx in the race named in her honour.
Weights for the Epsom and Metropolitan will be released next Monday.

Work on Route 462 bridge near Stone Mill Road in Lancaster County to begin early next month
EAST HEMPFIELD TOWNSHIP, Lancaster County — Repair and replacement work on the bridge carrying Route 462 (Columbia Avenue) over the Little Conestoga Creek in East Hempfield, Lancaster and Manor Townships will resume in January, according to PennDOT.
The project is expected to be completed next spring, PennDOT says.
Work on the 91-year-old span began in July, with crews replacing the south side of the bridge. Construction on the north side of the bridge will begin in early January. When the work is being performed, Route 426 between Stone Mill Road and Jackson Drive will be reduced from three to two lanes until the new bridge is completed in late April.
The bridge is near the Stone Mill Plaza shopping center and Maple Grove Park, just outside Lancaster city.
During construction on the north side of the bridge, the main entrance to Maple Grove Community Center located on Columbia Avenue will be closed. Beginning Friday, January 4, traffic will be detoured to an existing secondary driveway which exits to Elm Avenue.
A temporary signal will be installed within the park boundary and near the Elm Avenue cul-de-sac.
Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because slowdowns will occur.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast we tackle six of the myths that pop up every year about Easter.
Is the origin of Easter pagan? Does the name come from a Mesopotamian or Anglo-Saxon goddess of fertility? Are Easter eggs a symbol of spring and fertility? And, more seriously, what about the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus? Can the history of this narrative be trusted?
For more, including the resources used in this episode, visit The Cordial Catholic. Send your feedback to email@example.com.

Sometimes everything is not ok, but talking to someone might help. Today is Time To Talk Day and it's a chance for all of us to be more open about mental health – to talk, to listen, to change lives. Wherever you are – at home, at work or up the top of a mountain, have YOUR conversation about mental health.
I've been dealing with depression, anxiety and panic attacks for some time now, but I've learnt that talking about it and being as open as possible about it with the people that care about me, really helps.
There are lots of really honest pieces about mental health on thefmlyman.com under 'wellbeing' in the top menu. Do have a read, and if you'd like to write about your personal experiences, please do. It's easy to think there's no right place to talk about mental health, but the more we talk about it, the better life might be for all of us...

EVERY TIME Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice is put on, questions arise about its portrayal of Shylock, the Jewish moneylender. With the film of the play starring Al Pacino as Shylock now showing, millions more than usual will see it for themselves.
For many, the play is too uncomfortable, particularly since 1945, when the world saw what a modern European state machine had done to the Jews.
As people have grappled with how this could have happened, the name of Shylock has often cropped up.
Along with thousands of other representations of Jews as vengeful, money-crazed, blood-sucking devils, Shakespeare has been accused of creating a frame of mind that helped the Nazis' genocide.
In case you don't know the play, the deal is this: middle class Bassanio wants to get off with Portia, an upper class lady.
For this, he needs wealth, but he has spent what he's had, some of which he borrowed from his friend, the merchant, Antonio.
Antonio is a trader with ships ferrying all over the known world. He hasn't got the readies, so he goes to Shylock to borrow.
A deal is struck, whereby Shylock waives the usual rate of interest but says that if Antonio can't deliver on pay-back day, Shylock must have a pound of his flesh.
Meanwhile suitors are turning up to woo Portia, who has set them each a puzzle: they have to choose which of three caskets, gold, silver or lead to open. He who chooses right wins her.
Shylock's daughter, Jessica makes off with one of Bassanio's pals (non-Jewish) and Antonio's ships are reported as having sunk.
Shylock wants revenge for the loss of his daughter and says he'll have his pound of flesh off Antonio. Up at Portia's place, Bassanio chooses the right casket—the lead one.
In court, Shylock won't let Antonio's friends pay the debt. He wants the flesh. Portia, dressed up as a lawyer, pleads with Shylock to show mercy.
When he doesn't, she says, go ahead, cut Antonio open but remember it must be exactly one pound and the deal doesn't mention blood. So do the deed without shedding blood. Shylock realises that he can't.
He makes to leave, but Portia says that as an "alien" who has threatened someone's life, he must give up his loan—let Antonio "use" half his wealth, the other half goes to the state and it's up to the ruler of Venice to decide if he can live.
The Duke pardons his life, Antonio asks the Duke to give up his half on condition that Shylock converts to Christianity. Antonio gives his half to the man who got off with Shylock's daughter.
Shylock must agree to write a will, leaving everything he has to his estranged daughter and husband.
Then, Bassanio marries Portia (as do each of their servants), even though Bassanio fails a test of loyalty concerning a ring. It turns out that Antonio's ships didn't sink but are "richly come to harbour".
Shakespeare has Shylock powerfully defend his right to be not persecuted and at the end we have a strong sense that he is humiliatingly impoverished and de-cultured.
If we typify the play as a morality tale about the treatment of Jews, it misses the real struggle going on—a battle between two ways of making money.
Antonio is a member of the new rising class, the mercantile capitalists. He buys to sell. Shylock makes money out of "dead" capital, lending and getting back more.
At this stage in history, the merchant class, desperate for money to finance their adventures, struggled with the monopoly of the moneylenders and overcame it.
They abolished the Christian (not Jewish) taboo against taking interest on loans and set up their own credit houses.
Shakespeare shows us part of this very struggle and asks us to consider the values (it's a word that crops up in the play many times) of the new class. He shows their waste, their deceits, their cruelty, even as they talk of mercy, and how even as they talk love, they talk money, taking care to marry into the aristocracy to assure their place in the ruling class.
He asks us, are they any better than those beastly Jews?
It's a question that assumes an anti-semitic standpoint. But in asking it, Shakespeare lets us see the values of the class rising to dominance wanting to be free of the constraints of a money market they couldn't control.
At this point in history, they didn't have Gordon Brown to help them.

More teens than ever (especially girls) are experiencing symptoms of anxiety. As a society our goal should not be to get rid of a child's anxiety or the experiences that create fear; instead we should be teaching them how to tolerate ALL of their feelings and to be more resilient. It is possible to understand how fear operates in the physical, emotional and spiritual realms and what actions can help strengthen our inner calm and help children to thrive.
It was an honor to be interviewed by Maria Fuller of www.RaisingAPowerfulGirl.com. Their goal is to educate parents and caretakers on different ways to approach normal growth and development and give them tips, tricks and tools to make their job easier while fostering all of the core values of Raising a Powerful Girl in a community that Embraces Inclusity and Diversity. Make sure you check out all of their resources for parents on how to raise an empowered girl. You should also connect with them on Social Media at:

AI exists to solve business and organizational problems. But for businesses, the technology will only gain traction if resources are allotted intelligently to lead to improved outcomes. This means supporting the data science team with solutions which reduce effort spent on support tasks and enable increased time to be spent on high-value tasks.
Given the current data science skills shortages, it would be hugely beneficial to AI projects if AI technology were usable by a wider talent pool group, and if the number of people who could lead AI projects – e.g., junior data scientists and developers – were to increase.
The talented data scientist, still a rare breed
Data scientist is one of the most sought-after roles in industry today, and this type of job posting on Indeed.com rose 75% over the last three years. Yet, qualified, talented data scientists remain hard to find. Historically, most people working in data science came from academia, not business. The recent explosion in demand for data science experts in industry has created a talent gap, with large, deep-pocketed technology companies securing most of the best talent. And IBM predicts an increased demand for 700,000 more data scientists by 2020 in the U.S. alone.
Data science resources are hard to find and expensive. And you don't just need any data scientist; you need the right data scientist mapped to your particular project and objectives. Aligning your data science team to your business objectives over time is imperative. So is making your AI team's time as productive and efficient as possible.
The recent explosion in demand for data science experts in industry has created a talent gap
For AI to be operational and make more sense for businesses, it has to have reduced inputs and increased outputs and value. And this has to be true over time, not just as a one-point-in-time boost. To get the most value from data and drive productivity from AI projects, the data scientist is a key resource on your team.
Productivity, the economic measure of output per unit of input
Productivity improvements can come when your data scientist and your team can focus on mainly high-value activities like modeling, insight and the business domain areas and outcomes, rather than all the support processes. Every percentage point of effort that can be shifted in this equation improves productivity dramatically. Freeing data scientists up for more value-add tasks has a direct impact on entire teams and the project overall.
There's definitely healthy potential to shift the formula and "upskill" the talent pool. For example, moving toward "productizing" tasks would allow more narrowly skilled or less experienced team members (such as developers) to take more involved and leading roles. Productizing allows the platform (versus the individual) to undertake more tasks such as experiment management and auditing – and to learn and evolve in responsibility over time, taking over more and more of these tasks.
Giving AI teams an easy to use end-to-end platform that's GUI-based is another way to reduce the overall effort and free up data science teams to focus on more high-value tasks. In addition, speeding up the experimentation cycle has big impact – reducing the time to import and process data, create a deep learning model to test in minutes and running tests on models quickly and in parallel.
In AI projects, productivity metrics hinge on freeing up your data science resources to focus exclusively on high-value activities, shifting the 90/10 factor and eliminating the lower-value support functions from their repertoire.

A New #Day1 in Durham
As we prep for the start of the school year, Bull City Schools United and the Tyler Clementi Foundation are partnering to make Durham Public Schools welcoming and safe for all students starting on #Day1. Research shows students succeed academically and feel safe at higher rates in schools where teachers and administrators explicitly take a stand for safe spaces and against bullying on the first day of school. The initiative is called #Day1.
#Day1 has two steps: a pledge to stand up for all students, followed by a declaration ensuring everyone is respected at school. #Day1 encourages community members to be "upstanders" and speak out when they see bullying and harassment. The pledge and declaration are available below.
#Day1 is endorsed by the NYC Department of Education, the Superintendent of Michigan Schools, AT&T, YMCA, National Education Association, Pennsylvania Office of Safe Schools, and many other organizations. Durham non-profit Student U has also implemented the pledge.
Those who have put #Day1 into use report nearly immediate results in their communities with improvements in morale and mutual respect. Durham Public Schools and Bull City Schools United will join these leaders in making students safer.
