This article is more than 5 years old.
MONTREAL – A Montreal deacon charged with producing and distributing child pornography was granted bail on Thursday.
William Kokesch was ordered to deposit $10,000 and to return to court on Feb. 27.
He is not allowed to be in public areas where children are likely to gather. He is also forbidden from using a computer or having access to the Internet.
The bail conditions were announced as Montreal police said they have received more tips from the public since his photo was released.
Kokesch, 65, was charged Saturday via video link after police searched his west-end home a day earlier.
Police said earlier that investigators seized more than 2,000 images from his home.
Kokesch, a deacon for a church in the Montreal suburb of Beaconsfield, was relieved of his duties after the charges were laid.

A Senses Series Story
Caring for a loved one with cancer is tough. Doing it alone is overwhelming—especially when that loved one is a child. But ever since Ken Brighton's partner left him, Ken has spent his days at the hospital with his daughter, Hanna, hoping for a miracle. Maybe the mysterious care packages that appear for Hanna don't qualify, but they bring a spark of hope into his and Hanna's tired life—and so does Ken's neighbor, former singer Patrick Flaherty.
For two years Patrick hasn't been able to focus on anything but the life he should have had. An injury robbed him of his voice, and the idea of introducing himself to new people intimidates him. But over the past months, he's watched as his neighbor nursed his sick child, and once he meets Ken, Patrick starts to crave a life with him—a life he isn't sure he can have.
Ken doesn't realize he's fallen in love until the doctors send Hanna home, saying there's nothing more they can do: Hanna will either recover or succumb. Ken's heart is set on a new beginning—with both Patrick and Hanna. But Patrick's silence leaves Ken wondering what Patrick wants.

The Gaussian Blur plug-in acts on each pixel of the active layer or selection, setting its Value to the average of all pixel Values present in a radius defined in the dialog. A higher Value will produce a higher amount of blur. The blur can be set to act in one direction more than the other by clicking the Chain Button so that it is broken, and altering the radius. GIMP supports two implementations of Gaussian Blur: FIR and RLE. They both produce the same results, but each one can be faster in some cases.
注記 | |
These options are described in 「Common Features」. |
Here you can set the blur intensity. By altering the ratio of horizontal to vertical blur, you can give the effect of a motion blur.
Auto: Try to select the right filter automatically.
FIR: stands for 「Finite Impulse Response」. For photographic or scanned images.
RLE: stands for 「run-length encoding」. RLE Gaussian Blur is best used on computer-generated images or those with large areas of constant intensity.
Abyss policy (border management) is treated with Abyss policy.
Should the output extent be clipped to the input extent: this option removes unwanted pixels created on borders by blurring.
The Gaussian Blur filter doesn't preserve edges in the image:

Solar Orbiter blasts off to capture 1st look at sun's poles
February 10, 2020
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Europe and NASA's Solar Orbiter rocketed into space Sunday night on an unprecedented mission to capture the first pictures of the sun's elusive poles.
"We're on the way to the sun. Go Solar Orbiter!" said Cesar Garcia Marirrodriga, project manager for the European Space Agency. "It's a fantastic moment … it's like, well, we're unstoppable."
The $1.5 billion spacecraft will join NASA's Parker Solar Probe, launched 1 1/2 years ago, in coming perilously close to the sun to unveil its secrets.
While Solar Orbiter won't venture close enough to penetrate the sun's corona, or crown-like outer atmosphere, like Parker, it will maneuver into a unique out-of-plane orbit that will take it over both poles, never photographed before. Together with powerful ground observatories, the sun-staring space duo will be like an orchestra, according to Gunther Hasinger, the European Space Agency's science director.
"Every instrument plays a different tune, but together they play the symphony of the sun," Hasinger said.
Solar Orbiter was made in Europe, along with nine science instruments. NASA provided the 10th instrument and arranged the late-night launch from Cape Canaveral.
Nearly 1,000 scientists and engineers from across Europe gathered with their U.S. colleagues under a full moon as United Launch Alliance's Atlas V rocket blasted off, illuminating the sky for miles around. Crowds also jammed nearby roads and beaches.
The rocket was visible for four full minutes after liftoff, a brilliant star piercing the night sky. Europe's project scientist Daniel Mueller was thrilled, calling it "picture perfect." His NASA counterpart, scientist Holly Gilbert, exclaimed, "One word: Wow."
NASA declared success 1 1/2 hours later, once the Solar Orbiter's solar wings were unfurled.
Solar Orbiter — a boxy 4,000-pound (1,800-kilogram) spacecraft with spindly instrument booms and antennas — will swing past Venus in December and again next year, and then past Earth, using the planets' gravity to alter its path. Full science operations will begin in late 2021, with the first close solar encounter in 2022 and more every six months.
At its closest approach, Solar Orbiter will come within 26 million miles (42 million kilometers) of the sun, well within the orbit of Mercury.
Parker Solar Probe, by contrast, has already passed within 11.6 million miles (18.6 million kilometers) of the sun, an all-time record, and is shooting for a slim gap of 4 million miles (6 million kilometers) by 2025. But it's flying nowhere near the poles. That's where Solar Orbiter will shine.
The sun's poles are pockmarked with dark, constantly shifting coronal holes. They're hubs for the sun's magnetic field, flipping polarity every 11 years.
Solar Orbiter's head-on views should finally yield a full 3-D view of the sun, 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from our home planet.
"With Solar Observatory looking right down at the poles, we'll be able to see these huge coronal hole structures," said Nicola Fox, director of NASA's heliophysics division. "That's where all the fast solar wind comes from … It really is a completely different view."
To protect the sensitive instruments from the sun's blistering heat, engineers devised a heat shield with an outer black coating made of burned bone charcoal similar to what was used in prehistoric cave paintings. The 10-foot-by-8-foot (3-meter-by-2.4-meter heat shield is just 15 inches (38 centimeters) thick, and made of titanium foil with gaps in between to shed heat. It can withstand temperatures up to nearly 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit (530 degrees Celsius).
Embedded in the heat shield are five peepholes of varying sizes that will stay open just long enough for the science instruments to take measurements in X-ray, ultraviolet, visible and other wavelengths.
The observations will shed light on other stars, providing clues as to the potential habitability of worlds in other solar systems.
Closer to home, the findings will help scientists better predict space weather, which can disrupt communications.
"We need to know how the sun affects the local environment here on Earth, and also Mars and the moon when we move there," said Ian Walters, project manager for Airbus Defence and Space, which designed and built the spacecraft. "We've been lucky so far the last 150 years," since a colossal solar storm last hit. "We need to predict that. We just can't wait for it to happen."
The U.S.-European Ulysses spacecraft, launched in 1990, flew over the sun's poles, but from farther afield and with no cameras on board. It's been silent for more than a decade.
Europe and NASA's Soho spacecraft, launched in 1995, is still sending back valuable solar data.
Altogether, more than a dozen spacecraft have focused on the sun over the past 30 years. It took until now, however, for technology to allow elaborate spacecraft like Parker and Solar Orbiter to get close without being fried.
Fox considers it "a golden age" for solar physics.
"So much science still yet to do," she said, "and definitely a great time to be a heliophysicist."

Xbox and the Gamification of Healthcare
Guest post by Gil Lalo, director of enterprise architecture, C/D/H.
Microsoft's Xbox 360 ranks among the best-selling game consoles in the world , and its latest iteration, Xbox One, comes with a much faster processor, tight integration with Skype, voice recognition capabilities and an amazing motion sensitive camera attachment called the Kinect.
Aside from gaming, the device has shown remarkable promise in healthcare as creativity meets practicality and talented people from various clinical disciplines develop applications that exploit some native Xbox platform features. Here are some recent examples:
Long-distance Stroke Rehabilitation
Software company Jintronix uses the Microsoft Kinect software development kit (SDK) to capture movement from the body's 48 skeletal points on a 3-D camera. With Kinect's capture technology, Jintronix and Microsoft's Stroke Recovery system created cost-effective programs for clinicians and patients. Therapists can use them at the office to see more patients at a time, and patients get cheaper, efficient therapy sessions in the convenience of their own homes.
Microsoft's Stroke Recovery with Kinect has three main programs: one evaluates manual dexterity and coordination with a timed game in which patients pick up blocks and place them in a box; another challenges them to achieve a target body position; the third is an outer-space game that assesses reflexes. All three provide immediate scores and reinforcement.
Maintaining a Sterile Environment in the Operating Room
The Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Canada is one hospital already using Kinect in its operating rooms to reduce hygiene and infection issues. The contactless control of Kinect is enabling doctors and surgeons to view patient notes, scans and x-ray images without touching surfaces, such as a computer mouse or keyboard, which could be infected with bacteria. This has reduced time spent on standard operations and procedures as doctors can wash and disinfect their hands less frequently.

'We want free parking…..' is the petulant tantrum of the rich in Delhi. Read this news…The trader association of one of the most happening, and upmarket area in Delhi – Khan Market has moved the High Court to oppose the orders of the Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority to charge for parking. Their plea – this "market complex is visited by high-profile clientele comprising diplomats, politicians, judges, high government officials…." No one so far has dared to charge for parking in this most car manic area of Delhi in last 60 years!
They have finally said the unsaid in so many words. But we have said this before and saying it again -- car parks have already grabbed more than 10% area of urban Delhi, - close to as much green areas of Delhi. . Daily sale of new cars demands additional land equal to more than 300 football fields that threatens the urban commons at an enormous cost. But the basic rules of economics that bullish demand and scarcity value of land pushing up parking prices do not work in this case as no one pays or pays a pittance. Irony - most bus users pay more in daily fares than cars pay for parking in most parts of Delhi!
This desperate lust for free parking defies the law of the land. The national urban transport policy (NUTP) has said land is valuable in all urban areas and parking occupies a large part of it; recognize this, and levy high parking fee linked to the value of the land to make public transport more attractive. The Supreme Court has also taken on board the user pay principle in Delhi.
It is not just this privileged oasis in Delhi. But all cities that have got funds from the Central government under the urban renewal mission have been asked to reform parking policy as part of transportation reform. Its objective is also clear in the guidelines of the urban development ministry – "Introduce paid parking as a method to dissuade car use and/or raise revenue." The idea is to dampen parking demand and car use, and boost public transport, cycling and walking. The consultants to the city governments are also splattering these principles on the policy documents. But this has not changed the practice across cities.
What are these dots that still don't join?
City governments believe that it is their legal obligation to provide endless parking to meet the insatiable demand. Even NUTP is inconsistent on this – while it asks for full cost pricing it also allows bending of building bye laws to supply as much parking as needed! Cities set generous parking requirements without considering connectivity and accessibility of location. This incites more car use, more emissions. Delhi with only 115 cars per 1000 people allows 3 parking spaces per 100 sq m of commercial area but Tokyo with nearly 400 cars per 1000 people allows 0.5 car spaces per 100 sqm. Tokyo works with low parking requirements, effective pricing, stringent enforcement and penalty and strong public transport connectivity to reduce parking demand. But we miss out on this big picture.
Haven't we seen parking demand dropping in Connaught Place immediately after the metro came? In Hong Kong the office buildings in the central area can have zero to minimal parking as these areas are very well connected with other modes. Residential parking requirements also vary depending on its accessibility. Authorities can decide parking requirements on a case-by-case basis. Cities in the Netherlands have parking standards based on the accessibility of each location.
If our authorities are getting too generous with extra parking spaces at least ask is that the best use of land? The same space could also have a school, affordable housing, or public green spaces! Why do we have to tie up investments with individual and private parking especially for each building? Let the available parking in the neighbourhood be public, common and priced -- park, pay and walk!
Pay? How much? Though the policy makers are beginning to accept that car users must pay the full cost of parking and get no subsidy, they shy away from practising it. Providing cheap parking for them is public good that gets brownie points. The municipal governments see themselves as the parking fee regulator but lack courage to charge full costs to recover land cost, capital costs and maintenance costs of parking spaces.
The pampered car users also take this as a matter of right and hold governments accountable for capping parking fees for consuming public land for personal use. It is not government's obligation to regulate and subsidise parking fees nor is this the legal right of car users to demand so. The onus should be on the parking operators to recover their costs and profits. The market will find its own level, price will respond to demand to optimizes the use of the scarce parking area, and still ensure that at least 85% of the parking is full during peak hours.
If the government can slacken hold over fuel pricing why not parking fees! City authorities only stand to gain if they understand the revenue potential of free pricing. The lease agreements with the parking operators and its periodic renewal can help municipalities to tap higher revenue from the increased earnings. And that can be used for improved public transport connectivity and other needs. Let the municipalities focus only on design guidelines, enforcement, rules for pricing (variable rates etc), magnitude of penalty, and parking needs of bicycles, buses, autos and trucks.
Globally, governments are rethinking this strategy. Bogota has removed limit on the fees that private parking companies can charge. The increased revenue is used for road maintenance and public transit improvement. Paul Barter who has recently reviewed Asia wide parking policies asks if property rents can be totally market driven and without government control then why parking charges are controlled?
But the biggest disconnect today is the poor understanding of the multiple goals of a parking policy. This is starkly clear from the bizarre fight over parking fees in Delhi where the shopkeepers have asked – how parking can help to lower air pollution! People do not understand the obvious benefits of reducing exhaust pipes through car restraint measures, or the fuel savings. Even in the car centric US, a city like Boston that was unable to meet the clean air standards froze their parking requirements at a level that is only 10 per cent higher than the 1973 level and met the federal clean air standards. In New York very high parking fees and limited parking supply have lowered car ownership far below the average rates in other US cities. Clearly, the wind of change is blowing.
Should our hearts bleed for the poor little rich man?

Digital Cable Channels Conversion -- The Updated Report
In September we began a project to convert all of our old analog delivered cable television channels to new digitally delivered channels. The project is necessary because analog delivery is a dead technology, and we can no longer buy equipment that supports analog services. Time marches on, even in Glasgow. We put up a good fight to maintain our analog channels far beyond the time when all other cable systems had already abandoned analog transmission, but the time has come for us make this overdue transition. This post is an update on how the project has gone, and is still going.
When we began informing customers of the upcoming analog shutdown through Facebook, the RBG Blog, Weather channel crawl, Cable 6 ads, "Analog Shutdown" screen put on random channels, and our website (the Glasgow Daily Times even helped us by running articles about the transition), we did not plan for the project to last this long. Actually, we planned to finish this by November 2. On Oct. 28 we turned off eight analog channels, Ch. 7-Ch.12, Ch. 21 & Ch. 22. Once these channels were shut down, our phones lit up and we began to really understand how many folks were not ready for the transition. Far fewer customers were ready than we had estimated. As a result, there was a mad rush for the DTA boxes necessary to adapt analog televisions to receive digital signals. With the help of every member of the EPB team, we installed approximately 1,100 DTAs from October 28 up to November 16. Though we said that we would turn the analog channels off on Nov. 2, once we realized how many customers needed the DTAs, we began altering our plans and rushed to change our schedules with the various programming vendors with which we do business.
By November 16th we had the DTA install list down to under 40 customers. We turned off HGTV, FOOD, TRAVEL, & GAC (Great American Country). Surprisingly we had very few phone calls that day and only a couple that night. So, on Tuesday November 17 we decided to turn off 10 more analog channels, including everything above Ch. 65: Cartoon Network, ABC Family, E!, truTV, SyFy, History, FS1, FXX, CSpan, CSpan2. Once again, our phones and our Facebook page lit up and we were shocked to learn how many customers still were not prepared for the transition. So, we ordered even more DTAs and began installing and issuing them. We have now pushed out 1,300 DTAs to quench the demand. The last 100 ordered, arrived this morning and will be depleted through next Thursday's DTA schedule, so we are ordering 100 more. This is triple the number of DTAs that we estimated we would need!
We are very sorry for all of the confusion and frustration this project has caused, but we know the network will deliver superior services as soon as we can complete the construction work associated with this transition. All analog channels will be turned off by January 2 2016. So anyone wanting a new television for Christmas or looking for a Black Friday deal, make sure you are getting a television that supports Digital QAM tuner. This will keep you from needing a DTA. After that, all the remaining digital services will be reorganized by Feb. 18, 2016 to accommodate dramatic new services for our customers. We know that you, like us, are very anxious for that to happen!
So, that is where we are on this long and complicated project. We thank you all for your patience as we work through this drastic improvement to Glasgow's network.

By: Jeri Burtchell
I remember feeling like I'd stepped through the looking glass that day in the hospital. My world became distorted and unreal as the words "you have multiple sclerosis" echoed in my brain. I couldn't make sense of it; this couldn't be happening. Suddenly my life as I knew it was over and I could either live in the past, or look to a new future.
It may have been over 15 years ago, but I haven't forgotten that day. Anyone living with MS was once "newly diagnosed." We've all been there.
So this month, in keeping with MSAA's theme of finding resources, I'd like to introduce the newly diagnosed to what will become their greatest resource of all. It's the mental approach we take toward living our best life despite MS. I'm talking about being an empowered patient.
The term "empowered patient" has no clear-cut definition, however it encompasses an overall set of characteristics that sets one apart from the average patient. Empowered patients take an active role in making health care decisions, learn all they can about their condition, compile resources, take notes, and strive to improve their own quality of life. There is no set way to accomplish this; each empowered patient discovers their own path.
For eight years after my diagnosis, I was anything but empowered. I felt helpless, overwhelmed, and despondent. My medication wasn't working for me even though my doctor insisted it was. I had no idea I could get another opinion, and I trusted him when he said I needn't try any other medicines.
Then one day my neurologist had a stroke. I was suddenly fighting my MS battle alone. That's when my journey toward empowerment began. My first step was finding another doctor.
I'd never been very sick before MS, so doctor shopping was uncomfortable for me. I had my primary care doctor pick my new neurologist instead. (My path to empowerment began with baby steps.) It turned out the doctor he chose was the lead investigator for a clinical trial studying a pill for MS.
When I met with him we discussed the drug trial, weighing the risks and benefits. He also told me of all the other available options. Again I had to choose. I was terrified of making the wrong decision, and all of the medicines seemed so scary. But I was more afraid of not being on one of the drugs since my MS was so aggressive. I took home the paperwork to read up on the clinical trial. Three days later I took a huge leap. I decided to join.
Up until then I had been miserable, relapsing 3-4 times a year. Really big relapses that had me in a wheelchair, on a walker, or using two canes. The whole time I suffered, I never thought things could ever change. I thought I was destined to be miserable forever.
But the trial changed my life. I happened to get the real study drug and it worked so well for me, it would be another six years before I had a new relapse.
The positive outcome of my choices reinforced the importance of playing a more active role in my health care.
I learned all I could about my disease and took notes about what others found effective for treating the symptoms of MS. I questioned everything and sought to find the answers. As they say, knowledge is power.
But being an empowered patient isn't just about making treatment decisions and getting second opinions, it's also about owning your lifestyle choices, too. I took a long hard look at the things I could change. I gave up smoking and junk food and began exercising more. I saw real improvements. My goal is not just to live life, but to feel as good as I can at the same time.
But if giving your whole life a makeover seems like an impossible task, just take baby steps. Find one thing you can do that positively impacts your health and focus on it. If you need help, reach out for support.
Becoming an empowered patient doesn't happen overnight. It's a process that evolves over time.
So if you're newly diagnosed and feeling overwhelmed, don't despair. Know that there is an ebb and flow to relapsing MS and if you feel bad now, there are better times ahead. Focus on learning all you can and actively participate in your treatment decisions. If you don't like your doctor, find another one. Don't wait for them to have a stroke before you start thinking for yourself.
You'll find that being your own advocate might be your greatest resource of all.
*Jeri Burtchell was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1999. She has spoken from a patient perspective at conferences around the country, addressing social media and the role it plays in designing clinical trials. Jeri is a MS blogger, patient activist, and freelance writer for the MS News Beat of Healthline.com. She lives in northeast Florida with her youngest son and elderly mother. When not writing or speaking, she enjoys crafting and photography.

The fastest and most accurate broken link checker for WordPress. Join over 700K people who use Broken Link Checker to monitor and detect broken links 20x faster than other plugins, with pinpoint accuracy. No page limits, no ads, no upsells. Enjoy effortless, unlimited, and automated broken link checking from the get-go.
Broken links can kill your SEO, user experience, and site health… Broken Link Checker helps you find and resolve them faster than similar plugins.
Finding and staying on top of broken links can feel like a never-ending battle, especially if you're dealing with large sites or managing multiple.
Using a link checking tool can save you from having to find links manually, or avoid the frustration of discovering missed broken links months later (oops!).
But not every broken link checker was created equal…
You need a tool that not only automates the process, but also detects broken links quickly, thoroughly, and accurately.
That's where Broken Link Checker comes in…
BLC doesn't just scan your sites faster than other solutions, it scans deeply and frequently to ensure no broken links are missed.
Scan every inch of your sites, including external and internal links within your posts, pages, comments, blogroll, even custom fields, helping to ensure your site's SEO and user experience are not compromised in any way. And if that isn't enough, you'll also receive detection reports via email so you can quickly take corrective action.
Choose from two different link checking engines:
Broken Link Checker gives you the option of using two unique engines based on your needs. You can also easily switch between local and cloud broken link checking without losing your saved settings.
1.Cloud-based link checker
This engine is 100% cloud-based and built directly on WPMU DEV's servers (the owners of BLC), harnessing their powerful API.
Note that our cloud-based engine is still in beta. We're working around the clock to make this new version even better. As mentioned, if it's missing a feature you need, simply switch back to the local version.
This cloud-based engine gives you several advantages, including:
20x more speed – Being cloud-based eliminates any dependence on the performance of your server, giving you a massive speed increase.
Unlimited page & URL checker – Enjoy limitless scanning for pages and URLs, ideal if you're working with multiple sites or large sites with a lot of content.
Edit/unlink broken links (coming soon) – Effortlessly resolve all detected links right from your BLC dashboard.
Crawl it all – Standard pages and posts, menus, category pages… BLC ensures no URL is missed.
Any site, any size – Unlike plugin-based solutions, BLC is server-independent, making it capable of checking sites of any size and type.
Fewer errors – BLC's cloud-based nature eliminates the occurrence of WP Errors, Fatal Errors, DB Errors, and PHP Errors often present with other plugins.
Less chance of being blocked – The cloud-based engine doesn't use your site's IP address to check external URLs, meaning you're less likely to be blocked due to frequent requests.
Plus, manage broken links for unlimited sites from one place
Since the cloud-based engine connects you to WPMU DEV, you have the luxury of free access to their suite of powerful web development tools – including a convenient site management interface where you can manage broken links on multiple sites, rather than just one.
2. Local link checker
The main difference of our local link checker compared to the cloud engine, is that it uses your site/server resources to fetch and analyze site content and check the status of links.
It also uses your site's IP address, which as mentioned above, increases your risk of being blocked by some external links, resulting in incomplete or inaccurate scan results.
Here are the standout features of the local link checking engine:
- Monitors external links and internal links in your posts, pages, comments, the blogroll, and custom fields (optional).
- Detects broken links and redirects.
- Receive notifications via your dashboard or email.
- Make broken links display differently in posts (optional).
- Prevent search engines from following broken links (optional).
- Search and filter links by URL, anchor text and more.
- Edit links directly from your interface, without manually updating each post.
Whether you choose local or cloud-based, BLC's user-friendly dashboard and powerful features makes staying on top of broken links as easy and automated as possible.
The best scanning & detection features on one dashboard:
Run manual scans or set an automatic schedule
Enjoy the flexibility to run scans manually, or schedule automatic daily, weekly, and monthly scans to suit your preference and the sites you manage.
Edit or unlink broken links (coming soon to cloud-based)
After BLC detects broken links, it gives you the option to edit or unlink them with a click from your main dashboard. It couldn't be easier or faster.
Detailed broken link reports
After each scan you get a comprehensive summary of any broken links detected, along with the status of the links so you can instantly know how to resolve the issue.
Detection notifications via email
Stay on top of your link health and fix issues as fast as possible with broken link reports sent straight to an email address of your choice.
Advanced search filtering
BLC's search and filtering tools make it faster and easier to find specific URLs or filter by status or error type.
Export report lists for further analysis
Export your broken link lists as a CSV file for greater analysis inside of Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, and other spreadsheet/data software.
We take plugin security incredibly seriously; if you have a bug or vulnerability to report, you can do so through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program. It's fast, easy, and you will be notified when the issue is fixed. Report a vulnerability.

- Added a Hebrew translation.
- Added support for HTML code in custom fields. To make the plugin treat a field as HTML, prefix its name with "html:" in BLC settings. For example, if you have a custom field named "foo" that contains HTML, enter it as "html:foo".
- Fixed: The "Status" column is now properly updated when editing a link.

- Fixed: Email notifications will only include the "see all broken links here" link if the recipient can actually access that link.

- Added a Hungarian translation.

- Another attempt to fix the "database not up to date" that some users are still experiencing even with 1.6.1.
- Fixed the "database not up to date" bug. Now the plugin should properly upgrade the DB.
- Added a way to dismiss links. Dismissed links don't show up in the "Broken" and "Redirects" lists, but are still checked as normal and get the normal link styles (e.g. strike-through for broken links). Useful if you want to, for example, acknowledge that a link is broken and leave it be.
- Added a "Redirect URL" column. For redirects this will display the URL that the link redirects to. For normal, non-redirected links, it will be empty. This column is hidden by default. You can enable it in the "Screen Options" panel.
- Updated French translation.
- Tested on WP 3.4.1.

If y'all have been around me for more than ten minutes-okay five minutes, you know I'll start talking about writing, and if I start on writing, I'll move into motivation pronto. That's because through mentors and classes I've taken, I've learned that's the foundation of great characters and plotting.
The first one was Rachel Hauck, who asked, "What's his problem?"
"He doesn't need one. He's not a POV character."
"He does."
Okay. When I found it, my protag's goal and motivation became clearer.
Then there was Laurie Schnebly Campbell, who asked, "Why?" so many times, I wanted to reach through my computer screen and slap her silly. But then, after answering her multiple "whys", the proverbial penny dropped and I knew my protag's core motivation.
When I begin a new book, I start with learning my characters, and before I even get to the motivation, I write a stream of consciousness backstory for each main character. It's where I discover secrets I wouldn't have otherwise known, childhood events that scarred them, and most important it's where I find the LIE my characters believes about themselves. When I find that, I find their core motivation.
There are 8 Basic Lies that come from the clinical study of psychology. These lies are ingrained in early childhood, by the time a person is 5 years old, from an event or something heard. A child that young can't reason, and thus it must be true. This LIE is the lens of their worldview and the foundation for their motivation. Your character will either work to prove the Lie is wrong or they give into it.
The Lies are:
1) I'm a disappointment
2) Not good enough (this is a very strong lie, often used for men and strong female leads)
3) I'm not enough – or defective
4) I'm too much to handle and will get rejected
5) It's all my fault
6) Helpless – powerless to fix (this leads to a fear of being controlled)
7) Unwanted/unloved
8) I'm bad (which could possibly be used as a symptom or excuse for another lie)
In classes I've taught on this subject, I've seen writers say the lie their character believes is that God doesn't (or can't) love them. That's not one of the 8 Basic Lies. That's the result or a symptom of the lie, but their lie would probably be: 1) they're unlovable, or 2) they're not good enough. The LIE is the why (they believe) God can't love them.
In plotting, it's then your job to make your character's journey result in a resolution that breaks the stronghold of that LIE.
By sticking with these 8 Basic Lies, you'll come up with the core motivation that is universal and relatable to the reader-motivation that makes the reader suspend disbelief and follow your character through anything.

The 2013 SMILE ON DOWN SYNDROME BUDDY WALK will include a 1-mile walk through the grounds of the Vanderburgh County 4-H Center. Following the WALK, there will be food, entertainment, fun activities for the children, an opportunity for team photos, and information tables for the adults. NEW THIS YEAR… we are also adding a 5K to the event for anyone who would like to walk or jog the further distance!
The goal of the 2013 SMILE ON DOWN SYNDROME BUDDY WALK is to celebrate National Down Syndrome Awareness Month in October and promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome. Nationally, the BUDDY WALK raises more than $8.5 million, and on a local level we will raise money to support critical programs and services. Locally, our goal is to raise $70,000 to help support the goals of the parent-to-parent network group SMILE on Down Syndrome. A portion will also be given to the National Down Syndrome Society for research and education.
Funds are raised through corporate sponsorship and walkers' pledges for our local walk.
Walk registration begins at 9:00 AM, with the Walk activities starting at 10:00 AM. There will be food and entertainment after the walk. The day's events will end at 12:00 PM.
The 2013 SMILE ON DOWN SYNDROME BUDDY WALK will be held Saturday, October 5, 2013 at the Vanderburgh County 4-H Center, 201 East Boonville-New Harmony Road, Evansville, IN 47725.
Tens of thousands of people have participated in this event since our first walk, including children, young adults with Down syndrome, family members, friends, politicians, healthcare professionals, business leaders, corporate teams and other community members. Around 3,000 people are expected to participate in the 2013 SMILE ON DOWN SYNDROME BUDDY WALK this year. We will also have media coverage which expands our local audience, bringing awareness to the entire community and the Tri-State .
All funds are tax deductible as allowed by law through SMILE on Down Syndrome, a 501-c3 not for profit organization.

Getting a co-sign by The Roots is one thing, but performing at their annual Roots Picnic in Philadelphia is another. For Pretty Boy Reda, he has both of these notches secured tightly on his belt, and he's looking for ways to gain the support he needs from the listeners to take his career from one level to the next. Case in point, he performed on one of the same stages as Yelawolf, Mac Miller, and The Roots this past summer at the Picnic, and has his sights set on both meeting and exceeding his goals for the upcoming year.
AllHipHop.com spoke to the Philadelphia spitter briefly before the New Year to talk about his city's Hip-Hop scene, his most recent project, Shoot 4 Da Starz, and how he plans to expand his career and success to new heights in 2012:
AllHipHop.com: First off, I want to ask you about Philly. An artist like Meek Mill has had great success in the past year, and on an even larger scale, The Roots are some of the most consistent guys in the industry. Being that you are from Philadelphia, I'm curious what your thoughts are on your city's current Hip-Hop scene.
Pretty Boy Reda: I think it's coming back, I definitely do. Everybody should understand that this city has one of the best rappers ever in the game, Black Thought, and my man Meek is holding it down for sure. He's been opening up doors for a lot of us younger artists and has inspired us to keep our eyes open and know that anything is possible. So I definitely think that the eyes are back on Philly again. I don't want people to say that I sound like Peedi Crakk, or Beanie Sigel, or Black Thought. I want people to see the influences in my music, but not every artist from here sounds the same, and I think that a lot of eyes are back on us right now.
AllHipHop.com: So you released Shoot 4 Da Starz in October. How has the response been to, what you call, one of your most personal projects?
Pretty Boy Reda: It's been good, very good. We put out the CD in October and have been getting good results and good feedback from it. We've actually been talking to Julius Garcia at Sony/RCA, and since then I've been performing all over. I'm also in the studio currently working on my new mixtape. I've just been developing man, trying to develop some new music, and further develop my style.
AllHipHop.com: Was there an overall concept for Shoot 4 Da Starz, or was it just a collection of some of your best work up to the point of its release?
Pretty Boy Reda: Yeah, it was. It was a very inspirational thing. Shoot 4 Da Starz is not just a title; it's the way that I live life. Every song tells my story a little bit differently. It's all about my story and my experiences.
AllHipHop.com: Is there a personal favorite on there that you would want people to listen to as a good introduction to you?
Pretty Boy Reda: Well, of course I want people to hear the entire thing, but I'd have to say "Glory" is one of my favorite joints. That's the first song on there, and it has my Mom on it telling me to "wake up." I also got my uncle on the tape who gave me a real inspirational drop on the CD. That was very special to me because it came from his heart. I was 100 percent hands-on with the project even when I was doing shows and going through my own personal stuff, too, so that's why I love it so much.
AllHipHop.com: Let me ask you about a couple of other tracks on there. What can you tell me about "The Ghost of Rasheed"?
Pretty Boy Reda: Rasheed is a good friend of mine who passed a couple of years ago. We used to be partners in this rap group called The Under Doggz, and when I heard Jay Electronica's "Ghost of Christopher Wallace," I took that as, since Rasheed isn't here right now, I wanted a way for him to further live through my music. I just wanted to give that feeling that he's still in the building with us and he's still with us in spirit. That's where "Ghost" came from.
AllHipHop.com: The next song is actually my favorite from the mixtape. Tell me about "Moment of Honesty."
Pretty Boy Reda: That's just real rap from the first line to the last. It's me Reda, this is my moment of honesty, and it's what everybody has been waiting to see and hear from me. A lot of people just heard "Levi's" wanted something more lyrical from me and that's what is perfect about "Moment of Honesty." It's a moment for me and my career, where I've been, and where I'm trying to take things in the future.
AllHipHop.com: I also noticed that about 90 percent of Shoot 4 Da Starz features original production, so tell me about your process for choosing what beat to use and when.
Pretty Boy Reda: Well, I was dealing with a couple of my guys, Manny Wit Da Beat, Sam Greenberg, Kid Genius, and I knew that I wanted to make my own songs and not rap over anybody else's beat. I wanted to show you why I am should be a top artist, so when I picked the production, I tried to stay away from Southern beats and wanted to find something that matched with exactly the kind of music that I make.
AllHipHop.com: What else do you want people to know about the project?
Pretty Boy Reda: It's the perfect way to see who I am and what I'm about. It's a great project, and it's very mature lyrically.
AllHipHop.com: You've ultimately ended 2011 on a high note with the release of Shoot 4 Da Starz, but what do you have planned to continue the buzz and growth in 2012?
Pretty Boy Reda: A ton of live performances in a city near you soon. Definitely going to be putting in even more work next year; heading back to the studio. I'm working on The Leadership right now, which is the next project. The weekly video blogs have been a big hit, so [I'm] going to keep that going so people can still get to see the day-to-day of what I'm doing. We're going to be dropping more videos, and you're definitely going to be hearing more songs. I'm not going anywhere. I'll be around bringing you more heat.
AllHipHop.com: That sounds good to me. I'm looking forward to seeing what you have coming up next, and congratulations on the success of Starz.
Pretty Boy Reda: I appreciate that. Thank you.
