text: They found a sucker, Judge Napolitano from Fox News, to push the espionage claim despite not having any evidence. It's actually easier to blame it on the Brits though. Why? Because Congress and the DOJ just can't waltz into England and demand evidence of some yahoo op that never happened just because they feel like investigating our president running his mouth on twitter. A shame Obama shut down that NSA program though. Would be nice to still have a pulse on what that bulldyke from Germany is really thinking though.

I've never participated in a BOM before. In fact, a couple months ago, I didn't know what BOM meant. It stands for Block of the Month. Each month, the BOM host introduces a new block and tutorial and at the end of the series you have enough blocks to make a quilt! It's a great way to learn new techniques and since it's only one block each month, it isn't overwhelming.
For my first BOM, I've decided to participate in "And Sew On…" with Kristy at Quiet Play. Each block is paper-pieced and after 9 months I'll have a cute, sewing-themed, wall hanging for my sewing room. I love Kristy's paper-pieced patterns. I made this pillow for the Sew Seasonal Blog Hop using her Santa hat block design and I've been trying to convince her to do an 80's themed series with this awesome polaroid camera block as the first design.
So here is my first block in the BOM. It's called "Measure Twice":
It's a great starter block, if you have never tried paper-piecing before. It's simple and quick to start and the blocks will get more complex each month. I decided to use my very favorite fabrics (Katie Jump Rope and Architextures) for this wall-hanging, since I'll be looking at it for inspiration each day.
If you want to jump in and join the BOM, the details are here.

Do you remember your first Best in Show win? Me neither. For most of us, earning that top award remains a fixture on our annual list of New Year's resolutions. For others, owner-handers and professionals alike, the goal is not winning a Best in Show, it's how many all-breed Bests can be achieved. Select fanciers will have 100 Bests as their goal for 2013, and if successful, their dogs will gain exclusive membership in a collective of show dogs generally known as the Century Club.
Fewer than three dozen individual dogs have earned 100 or more all-breed Best in Shows since the first such prize was awarded in the early years of the 20th century. Although the proliferation of shows in the 1990s and 2000s might suggest greater opportunity for membership, the difficulty of earning even a single Best in Show has in all likelihood only increased during this period.
As the 2013 show season gets under way, I thought it would be fun to take a look at the breeds that have earned 100 or more Best in Show wins. My observations do not constitute an official and complete summary, and are intended only as motivation to aspire to achieving your own goals for the coming year, whatever they may be.
Not all show dogs, of course, are created equal. Some individuals (and some breeds) seem predisposed to greater show ring success than others. Of the more than 30 dogs with 100 or more Bests, five Standard Poodles and four German Shepherd Dogs are included on the list. The only other breeds with multiple members are Pekingese with four, and Black Cocker Spaniels and Scottish Terriers with two each.
Terriers, perhaps not surprisingly, have more club members than any other Group. Eight individuals of six breeds are members, including two Scotties and two Wires, plus one Kerry Blue, Lakeland, Welsh and Smooth Fox Terrier.
Of the six remaining Groups, the Non-Sporting members include a Bichon Frise with the five Standard Poodles, and a Bouvier des Flandres rounds out the Herding Group together with the four German Shepherds. Toy Group members include three Pekingese as well as a single Toy Poodle and a Maltese. The Sporting breeds are represented by the two Black Cockers, as well as an English Springer Spaniel, an English Setter and a Pointer. The Working Group includes a Doberman Pinscher, a Boxer and a Giant Schnauzer, and the Hound Group, despite the multitude of scenthounds and the unfailing beauty of the sighthounds, is represented by a single member, an Afghan Hound.
Membership in the Century Club appears heavily influenced by a dog's coat. Nearly three-quarters of the dogs listed are of coated breeds that require stripping, trimming or scissoring to look their best. A quarter of the members are black or predominantly black in color, with slightly fewer white or mostly white. More than half are a color or combination of colors other than primarily black or white.
Club membership began in the 1950s with the English Setter Ch. Rock Fall's Colonel. For nearly three decades, only two dogs managed to join the Colonel: the Pekingese Ch. Chik T'Sun of Caversham; and the Boxer Ch. Bang Away of Sirrah Crest. It was not until the 1980s that the Century Club witnessed an influx of members. One-fifth of the membership gained admission during this decade, including the Doberman Pinscher Ch. Brunswig's Cryptonite and the Wire Fox Terrier Ch. Galsul Excellence. The 1990s saw unprecedented expansion of the dog sport, and fully one-third of the dogs earning 100 or more Best in Shows achieved this benchmark during this decade.
Since 2000, nearly a dozen show dogs have joined the Century Club, including several of the best-known competitors of recent years. The Pointer Ch. Cookieland Seasyde Hollyberry, the Smooth Fox Terrier Ch. J'Cobe Kemosabe Vigilante Justice and the Giant Schnauzer Ch. Galilee's Pure of Spirit have each joined the club as the only member of their respective breeds.
The Century Club, it must be understood, is definitely not a "boy's-only club," since more than 40 percent of the membership is of the fairer sex. In fact, the top three spots are held by girls: German Shepherd Dog Ch. Altana's Mystique, Wire Fox Terrier Ch. Registry's Lonesome Dove and Scottish Terrier Ch. Braeburn's Close Encounter. Each of these show girls earned more than 200 Best in Shows in their lifetimes, with 'Mystique' achieving 275 career Bests. Only one male, the German Shepherd Dog Ch. Covy Tucker Hill's Manhattan, accompanies the ladies as a Duo Century Club member.
The total of Best in Show wins achieved by Century Club members numbers in the thousands. As the 2013 show year gets under way, several top dogs (and bitches) are already knocking on the clubhouse door. It's possible that before this month is through, they'll be issued their very own membership cards.
Whether your goal is one or 100 Best in Shows, may the coming year be filled with wonderful memories of you and your dogs having fun together.

It's hard to imaging running a game without cities for the PCs to explore, recruit hired help, rest from their latest exploits, buy supplies, or get into trouble in.

John C. Derrick (Germany, The Netherlands, England)
Still hoping someone will know if this story is correct. John C. Derrick, stowaway at age 16, came to America. He doesn't show up in any ship's manifest. He was either born in Germany or in the Netherlands. I have seen something that indicates that his father was Jacob and his mum was Sara. He leaves the family for America. He ends up in Wisconsin and marries the first of his 3 wives, Adelia Permelia Kellogg. He later lives in Illinois and then in Iowa. He marries again and has more children and migrates west and winds up in Idaho.President Wilson gives him more than 100 acres (in downtown Boise) as a Land Grant in the Territory. He dies in Council, Idaho, at his daughter's home in 1913. Any information you can provide is greatly firstname.lastname@example.com

S'pore growth will shudder if eurozone breaks: report
It is likely to be most affected among Asian countries, ex-Japan
By Teh Shi Ning, Business Times
[SINGAPORE] Singapore's growth will be hardest hit in non-Japan Asia if the eurozone should break up, Credit Suisse's projections show.
While the estimates come with a "sizeable health warning" given huge uncertainty, they do shed light on how Asia's economies might fare relative to one another if Greece should exit the eurozone, Credit Suisse economist Robert Prior-Wandesforde wrote in a report released yesterday.
In a more severe scenario of a break-up triggered by a Greek exit or escalated Spanish problems, Singapore's GDP could suffer a blow of 9.4 percentage points, a tad higher than Hong Kong's 9.3 percentage points and the largest hit of the 10 Asian economies surveyed.
This scenario, which assumes a 7 to 10 per cent contraction in eurozone GDP, a 25 per cent drop in eurozone imports and 8 per cent US import demand, would probably send Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia into a deep recession, Mr Prior-Wandesforde said.
A eurozone break-up could send Korea's year-on-year GDP growth into negative territory by year-end too, while China and India's growth could slip to what may "feel like a hard landing".
Even in a milder scenario, which assumes that Greece exits the eurozone in the next few weeks but with little contagion to the rest of the currency area, Mr Prior-Wandesforde estimates that Singapore's growth will again be worst-hit, along with Hong Kong.
The estimated negative impact on Taiwan was slightly less at 2.2 percentage points.
Estimates of the trade effects of a limited Greek exit were calculated based on a 2 per cent peak-to-trough fall in eurozone GDP, a 6 per cent drop in eurozone imports and 2 per cent drop in US import demand.
They can be considered optimistic forecasts, since they only account for the impact of weaker external demand on trade, and not other modes of transmission such as a drying up of trade finance or a withdrawal of funds from Asia to pad up European balance sheets.
After the initial blow, which could be at least as large as that dealt by the global financial crisis, the subsequent recovery in Asia is likely to be less impressive this time round.
"The Western world has largely run out of policy ammunition, Asian interest rates are lower than they were in mid-2008 and budget deficits are generally higher in the region," he wrote.
Mr Prior-Wandesforde said he attempted to quantify the impact of weaker trade on GDP growth, despite the huge range of potential outcomes, as the potential impact from a eurozone break-up is an issue that "cannot be ignored or wished away".
One consolation is that these scenarios, while possible, are not Credit Suisse's central view for the year. Its research team believes the eurozone will "muddle through" the rest of the year intact.
If that comes to pass, Credit Suisse projects that the local economy will grow 3 per cent this year, at the top end of the government's 1 to 3 per cent forecast range.

Late in October I asked for some megadungeon advice. I've dabbled in Barrowmaze and had Stonehell on order when I made that post. I have not read all the way through Stonehell just yet, but from what I have read so far I think it would work quite well for a megadungeon campaign. There is enough going on to keep things interesting and for the GM to play off of.
Now I am down to trying to decide which ruleset to use. I am a big fan of Swords & Wizardry. But if I get this off the ground – this campaign is supposed to be a short term winter time campaign and I am looking for the path of least resistance – which means maybe I should run it in Labyrinth Lord to avoid any conversion whatsoever. I want the time I spend on the campaign to be building threads of intrigue – not conversion, regardless of how easy it is to convert between OSR systems.
Comments are welcomed on the S&W versus LL decision that needs made.
As I write this the first snow of the season is about to be upon Ohio. If I am going to get this winter campaign going I need to get moving! The first thing I needed was a large town to be the base of operations. Feeling a little guilty for running a published adventure instead of writing my own, I attempt to remedy that by creating my own town for the characters to work out of.
I had a rough idea of what I wanted and drew up a map. With map in hand I did a short write-up on the town. I like to have just enough framework that I understand the town, establishment, NPC, etc that I can run with it on the fly. So the write-up briefly touches on the town's history, what makes it thrive today, and establish a general feel of the place. By putting these thoughts down I am much better prepared to handle things on the fly during a game session.
I present you the Town of Thassel!
Thassel, a large town, sits south of the Ironcrag mountain range along the Silver River. Thassel's population numbers around 5,000 residents, though the number fluctuates based on the mining season.
Thassel has existed along the river for centuries. With the downfall of a great kingdom centuries past it struggled as a small mountain town for decade after decade. Ten years ago rich mineral deposits were found in the Ironcrag mountains bringing an influx of people to the town.
Damaged buildings and city walls were repaired as the town was shortly returned to a time of prosperity. The flow of mining revenues and associated services soon had the town bustling with activity as merchants sold their wares and mining companies established bases of operations for their activities in the mountains to the north.
The Mining Companies
Within two years two predominant mining companies had solid footholds for their business in Thassel. Ravenflight Mining maintains the majority of their holdings in an area of mountains northwest of the city. Rusted Hammer Mining maintains their stakes in a northeastern portion of the range.
Ravenflight Mining was one of the early companies to establish claims when richer deposits of silver and iron were discovered. They organized quickly and staked out several mining areas in the easier to reach slopes and canyons of the mountains. Using these as their basis they expanded into harder to reach portions of the mountain range. They protected their claims vigorously, and are not beyond using physical intimidation to keep other miners – both organized and independent away.
Rusted Hammer Mining formed out of a trio of independent mining groups struggling to work their claims as Ravenflight Mining grew in size. With mines northeast of town in the Ironcrags transport of the mined ores was problematic. These three banded together with the idea of combining resources and floating their excavated product doe the Silver River. Met with skepticism the newly formed Rusted Hammer Mining company did just that. Soon the river was busy with their boats working their way up and downstream. So successful were they in this means of moving the ores out of the mountains by water they quickly rose to be the other prominent mining company in town.
While Ravenflight Mining and Rusted Hammer Mining are competitors, the Ironcrag Mountains offer enough ore rich deposits to keep the rivalry between the two from escalating too violently. Both honor each others claims for the most part and save for an occasional brawl breaking out in a tavern between intoxicated workers the relations are peaceable enough.
Thassel is governed by a council of five members. Ravenflight Mining and Rusted Hammer Mining each have a representative on the council. A third spot is held by a merchant guild who oversees many of the market booths. The fourth position on the council is held by one wealth, selected during an annual banquet in the government district of Thassel. The fifth and final position is held by a person selected by the popular community, also during an open meeting once a year. Many suspect the fifth position is simply a facade and pre-selected by the other four council members prior to any open meeting.
Despite a bias towards the mining industry and commerce in general, the council has served the town of Thassel well. The mining companies have kept a steady influx of residents employed and the monies earned typically flow back through town. Thassel is in better shape than just a decade ago and continues to thrive as long as the ores in the Ironcrags continues to be mined in a profitable quantity.
The council maintains a city watch, supplemented by volunteers. At least some loose sense of rule and law is maintained in the town. While tavern fights spilling into the street may go unpunished, murders and anything above petty theft is bound to be met with some form of punishment meted out. Activities that interfere with either mining operation are apt to be dealt with more heavy handedly.
Thassel and Stonehell
Thassel was once a city-state within a kingdom of authoritarian rule over a century ago. The kingdom fell, its people liberated from their ruthless and often sadistic potentate. Thassel struggled in the time that went by, finally beginning rebuilding as ores were found in the Ironcrags north of the town.
As Thassel began to flourish again, the tales of Stonehell, now a crumbling prison, began to spread amongst the townspeople. Stories of the horrors that occurred there over a century ago and the rumored atrocities that still occur at the hands of a myriad of occupants.
The stories of Stonehell spread and with them came an influx of adventurers and risk takers. Many seeking riches, some seeking fame. Some adventurers never return from the prison, some return changed, and others come back through buying drinks for any at their tavern of choice.
Stonehell resides a six hour journey from the town of Thassel, a spur of a worn path turning from the main mining camp route to the west and heading north into the narrow canyons of the Ironcrags.
Bandits are said to live in the forest at the base of the mountains, the same ones that prey on payroll caravans to the mining camps in the mountains. When the problem becomes too bad the Thassel council and mining companies out up an amount of gold and sellswords head that way to deal with the problem. Sometimes they chase the bandits from their hideouts, sometimes the bandits turn the posses back. Other times Stonehell itself claims another set of victims.

Judge denies mistrial request in Slade case
Published 5:30 am, Monday, October 1, 2007
State District Judge Brock Thomas this morning declined to declare a mistrial in the criminal financial mismanagement trial of ousted TSU President Priscilla Slade.
After announcing his decision, Thomas admonished attorneys and the media and said no interviews regarding the case are to occur in the building.
Slade's defense attorney, Mike DeGeurin, said a prosecutor intentionally leaked information on Thursday about a plea agreement made months before the trial began.
On Friday, the prosecutor, Harris County Assistant District Attorney Donna Goode, said she believed her comments — made during a break in the trial — were off the record. She said the former head of Texas Southern University was offered a plea bargain that would have sent to her to prison for 25 years had she pleaded guilty.
The trial resumes today with DeGeurin continuing his defense of the case, which accuses Slade of spending university money on personal expenses.

Title: The Dark and Hollow Places
Author: Carrie Ryan
Genre: Paranormal fiction, dystopian fiction, zombie fiction
Publisher: Delacorte Books for Young Readers
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Source: Audiobook from the public library
Audiobook reader: Allyson Ryan
First line: This city used to be something once.
Annah has lived in Dark City since she was a child, learning how to stay away from the plague rats, how to scavenge for food and other items necessary for survival. Up until a few years ago, she wasn't alone in her meager existence – she had Elias. Then he left to join the Recruiters, promising to come back at the end of his two-year commitment. Only it's been three years, and she's running out of any reason to keep on surviving.
While leaving the Dark City, Annah spots a girl her age entering the city – a girl who looks exactly like her, minus her scars. She returns to the city, determined to find her sister, when she runs into Catcher. He's different than anyone she's ever met, and Annah starts to care about living again. But the world is still falling apart, the Horde is getting closer, and there seems to be nowhere left that is safe. Is it worth it to start working to survive again?
I loved The Forest of Hands and Teeth, the first book in Carrie Ryan's zombie series. Book two was pretty good, but didn't wow me as much, mostly because I thought the main character of Gabry was a bit whiny. The Dark and Hollow Places is my favorite of the series, and a terrific place to end the story – although it would definitely work to have more stories set in the world of the Unconcescrated and the Forest and the Dark City.
The character of Annah is the reason this book stands out more for me – I loved her. She is damaged and dark and strong and fierce and loyal, and as I listened to the audio, I wanted her to find happiness so badly. Of the three heroines in the series, she is definitely the one who most resonated with me emotionally. Her relationships with her sister, Elias, and Catcher are complicated, and exactly what you would expect in the world they live in and with the things they have seen and experienced.
Very slight spoiler alert.
While the story of Annah, Gabry, Elias, and Catcher came to a satisfying end, Ryan also stays true to the devastating world she has created. If you're expecting everything to be all happiness and light, don't – this is still a world inhabited by the walking dead, seeking to devour anyone left alive.
End of very slight spoiler alert.
Audio notes: Allyson Ryan did a fine job of reading, but it wasn't the type of narration that leaves a lasting impression. There were a few places, especially in the action scenes, when her reading didn't sound natural, where it sounded like she was acting, trying to be dramatic, and this is something that bugs me in an audiobook.


text: A SciFi action SpaceOpera {{Korean Webtoon|s}} about humanity's struggles against monsters. Praised for its tragic story lines and epic action scenes, criticized for its rough line art and frequent lapses in punctuation. Written and drawn by Kim Sung Min; it is serialized in Korean [[http://comic.naver.com/webtoon/list.nhn?titleId=64997 here]]. The English fan translations can be found [[http://www.webtoonlive.com/description/Knight+Run/ here]], and official Naver translations [[http://comic.naver.com/en/list.html?titleId=64997 here]].[[http://knightrun.wikia.com/wiki/Knight_Run_Wiki Now has it's own wiki.]]-----!! This webcomic provides examples of:* TheAgeless: Pray initially appears younger than Anne; she's actually quite a bit older, and hasn't aged a day since they met. No one seems to think much of this (probably because "magic" exists in this universe). [[spoiler:Pray is actually a monster queen, albeit one who is completely human except for her lack of aging and ability to give birth to more monsters]].* AllThereInTheManual : The bonus material in the book "Knight Run Another Story: Father's Day" contain clues and foreshadowing for future arcs. * ApocalypseMaiden : Pray.* AuthorAppeal: Several. Little girls with blonde hair; female characters in general (take a look at [[http://comic.naver.com/webtoon/detail.nhn?titleId=64997&seq=136 the girl with red braids]] who only appears in this single chapter); and the survival rate of [[spoiler: couples]] in-universe.* CrapsackWorld: WordOfGod says that he doesn't want anyone in the audience to think that they would want to go live in the universe within the story. This is most extremely expressed by the state of [[spoiler: the planet Tobal]] in Knight Run Another Episode 2.* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Pray and Anne are orphans. Their adoptive mother is still alive, but Pray was always careful to keep her from getting too close to Anne. [[spoiler:Actually, Pray has no parents, while Anne's biological mother is still alive for most of the story--'''Pray''']].* DysfunctionalFamily: The Nelsons, in Knight Run Another Episode 2. * {{Foreshadowing}}: Three [[spoiler: of Pray's children]] are named (or nicknamed) Fear, Blue Beetle, and [[NumericalThemeNaming Quattro]]. Quattro? See TheReveal below.* FunctionalMagic: Some of the knights have powers described as magic or supernatural, from the traditionally sci-fi PsychicPowers to the ones who can summon what appear to be mystical fairies. It's not clear if this is actually magic or just SufficientlyAdvancedTechnology humans have lost understanding of.* HumanoidAliens: The queens. A lot of the higher level monsters also count, especially those born from the Anir queen. [[spoiler:Pray spent quite a lot of time around humanity, and thus designed her most powerful children in their image]].* LostTechnology: Humanity has lost the ability to create gates to enable travel between distant planetary systems.* MeaningfulName:** Anne was named after ''Literature/AnneOfGreenGables'', a PluckyGirl known for "green eyes that sometimes look grey." Pray constantly reminds her of this, and keeps a rare paper version of the book as one of her most precious possessions. She got it from Fion, who idolized the Anne of the book. [[spoiler:Fion was Pray's first friend, which is why she named her daughter after her hero]].** Pray had no name originally, and no one really liked her enough to give her one. She gave herself her name after meeting Anne, to give her something to call her. Since she met Anne after praying to God to send her a friend, she went with Pray.* MessianicArchetype: Anne. She cares for every single human being and can't stand to see any of them hurt--but she became a knight to save people, even though she knew that would put her in a position where she would see the worst tragedies. She thinks nothing of sacrificing herself to save absolutely anyone. [[spoiler:She was even born from a virgin mother, though admittedly that mother was a monster queen, and virgin births are commonplace for them]].* OnlyFriend:** Pray hates everyone except for Anne. Period.** Pray was something of the unwilling friend of another girl, Fion, in the backstory before she met Anne. Pray hated her just like she hated everyone else, but Fion never stopped trying to get close to her.** [[spoiler:After Fion died, Pray realized what she had lost, and prayed for a friend. Then she gave birth to Anne]].* PluckyGirl: Shion in Another Story 2. Ashley in Another Story: Father's Day.* RedEyesTakeWarning: [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience All of the queens]] have red pupils.* RuleOfCool: Numerous {{Badass Longcoat}}s, Lots and lots of {{Cool Sword}}s, {{Powered Armor}}s and {{Cool Starship}}s, not to mention the FinalBoss with a [[PowerGivesYouWings single black wing]]. There must have been a BladeRun in one of the battles too.* SekaikeiGenre: In each story arc, the protagonist must weigh the burdens of saving the world with the cost of saving the one important person to them to reach a conclusion.* ShadowArchetype: The White Type-Zero uses two swords and has brown hair like Anne, and even appears to have a similar fighting style--not to mention that she's the only monster besides the queens with an obvious gender. [[spoiler:Considering that Anne is Pray's daughter, it's implied that the White Type-Zero is the same model as Anne, and thus her genetic twin. Dry even fails to kill her after breaking her mask, hinting that she looks the same as Anne underneath]].* SuperpowerfulGenetics: Powerful clans that gave birth to many of the most powerful Knights in the story (such as the Leonhart and Zyle clans) are descendents of special, Bio-engineered bloodlines.* SwordFight: Most action scenes and every conclusive battle for each arc consists of this.* TheReveal: Chapter 74: [[spoiler: Anne is revealed to be Pray's biological daughter.]] Considering Pray's identity, this has very serious implications...* WhamEpisode: Chapter 30: [[spoiler:Pray is in league with the aliens.]]* {{Yandere}}: Pray.----

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — A nonprofit plans to pay for venison donations from an upcoming hunt aimed at culling Bloomington's deer population.
Ian Munnoch tells the Herald-Times that Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry will use $7,000 in grant money to process the venison from an upcoming deer hunt at Griffy Lake Nature Preserve. Munnoch is a coordinator for the group.
The deer will be killed by sharpshooters with White Buffalo, a Connecticut-based nonprofit wildlife management company.
Munnoch estimates 4,000-5,000 pounds of venison will result from the cull. All of the deer killed will be taken to a deer processor and then donated to Hoosier Hills Food Bank.
The grant money comes from the Sportsman's Benevolence Fund through the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.

Our blog
Only your imagination is a limit to what technology is capable of today
25 April 2016
Global Services
Blogs by author: Global Services, We're a leading global business communications provider
In February 2016, Fabrice De Windt was appointed CEO of BT's Benelux organisation. Fabrice is Belgian but has spent the past five years working internationally, serving some of BT's biggest customers around the globe.
In his previous role, Fabrice was responsible for BT's financial services customers in Europe and before that held a global sales management role. In other words, Fabrice comes from the front-line trenches, where he has had first-hand experience helping large enterprises deal with the challenges of digital transformation. We asked Fabrice about his perspective on the market's major trends – and how BT is responding.
Digital transformation driving the agenda
You have worked with some of BT's biggest customers around the globe. What keeps them up at night?
Fabrice De Windt: Digital transformation is a key priority for nearly all our customers. New tech-enabled business models are disrupting every industry. Uber has become the largest taxi company in the world but doesn't own a single taxi. Airbnb is the largest short-stay accommodation provider in the world but doesn't own a single property. Our customers are now urgently looking at their own digital transformation and in many cases fundamentally rethinking the way they interact with their customers. At BT we're exceptionally well positioned to help our customers during that transformation process. That makes it a great place to work currently.
Why is BT so well positioned with regard to digital transformation?
Fabrice De Windt: The paradox for IT at present is that they have to do so much more with less. IT budgets have been under pressure for several years but, simultaneously, the business requirements are more demanding than ever.
Fabrice De Windt
CEO of BT's Benelux organisation
On the one hand the role of IT is to deliver a more efficient business operation, but on the other hand the business is crying out for innovation. At BT we can help in both these areas. With regard to the day-to-day running of IT infrastructure we are in an excellent position to do this more efficiently but also more effectively. We can reduce costs and improve quality of service. And that frees up resources which can be invested in digital transformation.
Our Cloud of Clouds portfolio strategy where we integrate different cloud services in a single control pane is our key differentiator.
Customers can pick and choose services from different providers depending on where they are in the transformation process. BT brings all these services together under a single security wrap and replaces a bundle of SLAs with just one. Our network capability is the so-called spider in the web. It allows customers to make ubiquitous connections to various services, whether delivered from their own datacenters, of from BT's cloud (e.g. unified communications or contact centre services), or from partners in our ecosystem (e.g. Amazon, Microsoft).
Digital transformation is a key priority for nearly all our customers.
Disruption: from theory to reality
Technology disruption is not a new phenomenon. Why do you think digital transformation has become such an urgent topic lately?
Fabrice De Windt: Simply put, the technology is currently available to enable such transformation. In the past, much of the 'disruption' was theoretical; now there are huge opportunities in so many different areas. For example, we recently helped one of our insurance clients develop a model where they are able to conduct claims assessments using mobile video. In this way, claims adjustors do not have to travel to the customer's location every time; instead, they can assess the damage through real time video. Another example: one of our banking customers analysed payment traffic in a city during a major festival. It was subsequently able to advise city authorities to adjust the route of the parade and thereby boost retail revenues by 25% the next time. Today only your imagination is a limit to what technology is capable of.
The critical role of convergence and the cloud
Looking internally at BT's own assets and capabilities, what are some of the key trends in that regard?
Fabrice De Windt: In our world, convergence is absolutely critical. The lines between the traditional towers in IT – hardware, telco, software, and services – continue to blur. For example, traditional hardware-based networking will gradually give way to Software Defined Networking (SDN), a new architecture that makes it much easier for our customers to manage their network and deploy new applications. Our capabilities in IT services are also continuously evolving.
The cloud is becoming a key driver of new business models, especially service-based and pay-as-you-use models. Uber and Airbnb are key examples of this, but now similar models are emerging in industrial sectors and manufacturing. Even aircraft engine manufacturers are turning into 'aircraft engine as a service' providers. That is a key trend in the market and BT is making that shift too.
Today only your imagination is a limit to what technology is capable of.
What are your first impressions of BT's Benelux business?
Fabrice De Windt: Firstly, let me say that I'm happy to be back home. I think we can be proud of the fact that we serve such stellar customers, companies like Philips and Solvay and major institutions such as NATO and the EU. We clearly have a strong customer base. Our task now is to further develop the relationship with these clients. We can add more value by working more closely with customers. Another priority is to improve our client services; we're good, but I would like us to be even better.
To conclude, I'm very confident in BT's future. We are in an excellent position currently to help our enterprise customers manage their digital transformation. And I'm particularly excited about our Cloud of Clouds offering – it is a bold move that perfectly illustrates our own willingness to embrace new digital realities.
Our Cloud of Clouds portfolio strategy where we integrate different cloud services in a single control pane is our key differentiator.

Rewrite is the fourth opening (second in the English dub on Adult Swim) for Fullmetal Alchemist. It is performed by Asian Kung-Fu Generation. The song won the Best Anime Theme Song at the American Anime Awards in 2007. There's also an official English version written by the Darling Thieves.
Lyrics :
Kishin da omoi wo hakidashitai no wa
Sonzai no shoumei ga hoka ni nai kara
Tsukan da hazu no boku no mirai wa
"Songen" to "jiyuu" de mujun shiteru yo
Yugan da zanzou wo keshi saritai no wa
Jibun no genkai wo soko ni miru kara
Jiishiki kajou na boku no mado ni wa
Kyonen no karendaa hidzuke ga nai yo
Keshite riraito shite
Kudaranai chou gensou
Wasurarenu sonzai kan wo
Kishikaisei riraito shite
Imi no nai souzou mo
Kimi wo nasu gendouryoku
Zenshin zenrei wo kure yo
The reason I want to spit out these sentiments
is I have no other proof I even exist
my future that I thought I managed to grasp
is a contradiction of all I thought that I had
The reason I want this old image erased
is I see my own limits and I'm out of place
In the window of my own self-consciousness
I see last year's calendar, with no dates on it
Now I, I rewrite
All these worthless visions, and I'll be unforgettable
Come to life, and rewrite.
All my bad ideas

I had a chance to take a look at the guts of Build::Module today. It actually just uses ExtUtils::Install to install the files, so there's no reason why it can't generate the .packlist for us. I'll look tonight and see if there's a nice way to add the .packlist generation without breaking the Module::Build API.

Jump down to hear about our own DLO shopping experience and to find out who makes that cute striped quilt...
We ordered bedding from DLO about a year ago. We snapped up a duvet cover and high thread-count sheets. We don't recall our exact savings but we're fairly frugal and we didn't balk at the price. What we do remember is being pleased with the fast shipping and, more importantly, the final snuggly results.
Admittedly, there is a lot of bad bedding on this site but there are plenty of (inexpensive) gems so it's well worth your time to browse. Besides bedding, DLO sells items for the bath, like towels and tissue holders, and home textiles, such as rugs and window dressings.

Perhaps they're one of the more overlooked bands of the classic rock era (I don't really think so, but it's possible), but it took far too long for me to come to a band simply called "The Band" after I started listening to classic rock, and actually even longer before I could actually name a song they played. Looking back that is really a shame as this group was probably one of the most influential bands of the late 60s early 70s (as well as later) and made some great music to boot. Since my first listen to Music from Big Pink a number of years ago, I've been a fan of "The Band", and consider them one of the bands I wish I had discovered back when I first started listening to classic rock.
I actually don't know as much about the Band as I would like as I've only heard Music from Big Pink so far, but I'm also sure I'll be writing a tribute article discussing the intricacies of this band or that album as I hear more and get further into their music. In the mean time though, as a little bit of a tribute to the Band, to the album and to one of the greatest songs ever written I thought I would include a nice concert clip from 1970 of the band playing "The Weight"
Here's the clip, thanks as always to Youtube and 5thdayofmay for uploading it.
This is pretty great footage that really shows some of the subtleties of this band, and how earthy, authentic and real their music is... great clip, and an even better song.
"The Weight" is one of those songs that anyone who's listened to enough music from this era recognizes (and probably sings along to) as it's just a staple of the 60s and 70s. Although I like the studio version, this version stands out for me even more because of how "real" it sounds; very immediate, spontaneous, but still containing all the necessary parts of the song that it sounds pretty close to the studio take.
If this is your first impression of the Band and love the song, then don't wait a year or two like I did... go check out their albums as they made some great music including, but not limited to this song and the classic album, Music from Big Pink.
If you're already a fan of the Band, then just enjoy the live footage as this kind of footage really shows the group in their element. There are a number of video releases from the Band, but I have unfortunately yet to see any of them so I can't make a recommendation. Still, check them out as there are probably some other great moments.

Seattle, WA
Words By Coleman Schwartz
Photos By Scott Shrader (J. Scott Shrader Photography)
Thursday night at Nectar Lounge in Seattle saw one of the venue's most interesting bills in recent memory. Local contemporary jazz quartet Industrial Revelation started things off, and the headlining act was a super-jam between guitarist Andy Coe, drummer Pete Ciotti, organist Will Blades and DJ Logic.
Industrial Revelation brought a large contingent of fans out to catch their set. Nectar took on the vibe of a jazz club, with many patrons watching from the seats and those standing not pushed so tightly together. The band's set was nothing less than prolific. The four musicians, drummer D'Vonne Lewis, bassist Evan Flory-Barnes, trumpeter Ahamefule Oluo and keyboardist Josh Rawlings, are each among the finest musicians in Seattle at their respective instrument. Within the first track, I was extremely impressed at how well the four of them could play together. They somehow found enough sonic space for all four members to solo simultaneously, while still sounding tasteful and controlled. They walked a fine line between symphony and cacophony; if just one of them had gone a bit overboard the results could have been disastrous at some points. They clearly all place a lot of trust in each other to teeter on this edge, and the gamble pays off big time.
When it came time for the first proper solo of the show, Flory-Barnes drove the crowd mad with his smoothly executed upright bass work. He made the instrument absolutely scream, and was able to use hammer-ons and pull-offs with a proficiency I did not realize was possible on upright. He made brilliant use of his high notes, always adding in the perfect harmonies to his previous lines, but never missing a beat in terms of driving the melody. He passed the spotlight to Rawlings, who wowed us with his refined dynamics and effects usage. As the crowd focused on his keyboard solo, Lewis tip-toed back into the mix behind him, their apparent psychic connection flooring everyone in attendance. As Flory-Barnes locked into a groove with Lewis, Rawlings continued his solo over the top, adding in lots of wah-pedal. Oluo sat this portion out, dancing heartily on the side of the stage. He rejoined the band briefly to close out the song, but you could tell he was due for an explosion later in the show.
The next song was the title track to their new album, Liberation & the Kingdom of Nri, titled "Liberation." This tune was best described as jazz-influenced space-funk. Flory-Barnes moved the song along with his melodic bass work, occupying the traditional role of a lead guitar beautifully. Oluo truly got his chance to stand out on this track, with his soulful trumpet vibrato and trilling skills displayed front and center. As Lewis kept time, I was stunned at how well he managed to blur the line between human and machine. Rawlings coaxed spacey noises out of his keyboard, using only minimal effects. During this song, I kept thinking that we should send these four musicians into space to meet the aliens, as a representation of the great potential of the human race.
To follow this, they began a tune with a snapping intro from Flory-Barnes and some a capella work. As the whole band came into the mix, he and Lewis again displayed their ability to effortlessly lock into a tight groove. Flory-Barnes continued to impress with his pinch harmonics, and was visibly getting highly involved in the performance, looking almost possessed as he kept up with Lewis's tempo. Lewis had the biggest smile on his face, you can tell that he takes an enormous amount of well-deserved pride in this project. Over this tight groove, Rawlings started to get extremely funky with the clavinet setting on his keyboard. The entire band was clearly ready to break free of their jazz mold and do something different. Lewis could be heard asking, "Where is Grace Love?!" To answer this question, she came onstage from the crowd. The rest of the band entered full-on funk mode, and she began to sing over them. The jazz audience at Nectar could not believe this was happening, and started to get a bit crazier. Her vocal lines interplayed perfectly with Oluo's trumpet lines, carrying the melody and moving all of the fans to dance with extra vigor. As the jam slowed down and came towards its end, she embraced Oluo and left the stage.
At this point, the entire band had loosened up significantly since taking the stage. The next song featured an astounding series of full-band, syncopated stops that brought the focus back to the death-defying instrumental talent available onstage. The next track returned a bit to the space-funk territory, visited earlier in the show. Oluo's trumpet playing absolutely stole the show here, as he went down to his knees to belt his expressive part out to the heavens. Flory-Barnes strutted around behind him, his bassline always keeping the listener guessing as to where it might go next.
The band stopped after this song, and appeared briefly to be finished with their set. The raucous reaction of the crowd quelled these notions, and the band members selected a final song to appease the audience. Flory-Barnes unleashed a barrage of notes that was seemingly endless, until it settled into a smooth quote of Radiohead's "The National Anthem." This quote continued, with spacey noise effects in the background from Rawlings, until Lewis and Oluo also joined into the cover. At this point, I was powerless but to scream at this unexpected cover of a personal favorite song. Lewis flawlessly reproduced Phil Selway's chaotic cymbal work, while Oluo managed to nail the song's horn part and Thom Yorke's vocals simultaneously. Their version was complete with an improvised section in the middle, which was tied back into the song after a few minutes by Flory-Barnes's subtle teasing of the bassline. Oluo eventually brought the song all the way back as he switched back to covering Yorke's vocal part for a beautiful reprise of the main verse. This was the perfect cherry on top of their set, showing that these artists can handle anything from jazz standards to some of the most contemporary, jazz-inspired music out there. They are bringing groove-oriented jazz to the people in an accessible manner, and it makes me so happy to say that this is something you can only see regularly in Seattle. If you can, try to make it out to see their next show at the Seamonster Lounge on November 30, 2015.

A Dark Spark of Light is an exhibition presented by Juan Riusech & Thereza Pedrosa, founders of the Alliages organisation and of the divulgation website Beautiful People Live Art, respectively. United in the common aim of promoting the culture of contemporary jewellery at the international level, the curators invited the artists to face the theme of opposites that are attracted and are indissolubly interconnected.
There is no light without shadow, no good without evil, no happiness without torment.
This theme – dramatically current in its personal, social and historical implications – required an attentive and intimate elaboration from the artists. The resulting creations are rich of pathos: Maria Rosa Franzin's brooch testifies of a spark of hope in the dark; Clara Del Papa's jewel symbolizes a painful path to a rebirth; Izabella Petrut's ring represents a material conflict. Each and every artist offered an extremely personal interpretation on this conflictual theme.
The works selected for the exhibition invite to reflect on the beauty of life, in all the contradictory and opposing forms in which it manifests itself.
A Dark Spark of Light is on display simultaneously at the Alliages gallery in Lille, France, and online for the related voting contest on Beautiful People Live Art from December 12 to January 30, 2016.
Visit the gallery and vote for your favorite artist by entering her/his name in the comment box at the end of the article. The winning artist will be featured in a solo virtual exhibition of Beautiful People Live Art!
Voting will close on January 30, 2016.
ATTENTION please! Any feedback is appreciated, but to vote for your favorite artist you need to EXPLICITY WRITE HER/HIS NAME in your comment! Thank you!
Exhibition curated by Juan Riusech and Thereza Pedrosa.

On Tuesday afternoon, I wrote that Jeanmar Gomez's job may be on the line. And if that was the case, he did nothing to convince the coaching staff that he deserves to take the mound again in five days.
His performance against the Reds was the quintessential Gomez outing. He wasn't exactly roughed up, but he was so inconsistent that his pitch count quickly climbed and he was forced out of the game after five ineffective innings.
In 32 career starts, Gomez has been knocked out before the 6th inning 12 times. And only three times has he completed seven innings of work. As a result, with Gomez in the rotation, the Tribe bullpen is essentially guaranteed three to four innings of work every 5th day.
While watching Sunday Night Baseball this week, I heard Orel Hershiser reference the idea that when you use the bullpen on your own terms, things tend to go well, but when you're forced into using the pen, that's when meltdowns happen. And Tuesday night demonstrated the very essence of his point.
A few other thoughts and notes…
- Tony Sipp's overall stats are tough to look at, and I saw more than a handful of people calling for his job on Twitter after the home run he gave up to Joey Votto. However, Sipp can still be extremely valuable when used correctly. Lefties are hitting just .176 against him this season and that's not a weapon the Indians are going to part with any time soon.
- Michael Brantley extended his hit streak to 19 games, matching a career high. He's now just one game away from the Indians 7th 20-game hit streak since 1990 and their first since Casey Blake's 26-game streak in 2006.
- Jason Kipnis drove in the Tribe's only run, becoming the first Indians second baseman with 40 RBI through the team's first 60 games since Hall of Famer Robbie Alomar in 2001. He's on pace for 108 RBI.
- Johnny Cueto became the first pitcher to throw a complete game against the Indians in interleague play since Aaron Harang in 2006.

Hi all
I need help with a MySQL query more than anything I think so I hope I am not posting this incorrectly.
I have a list of Hotels in a page and each Hotel has multiple Hotel Rooms associated to it. My Hotel list page needs to display the cheapest priced room such as:
"Rooms available from: £x.xx".
Now, I obtain this price with a second query inside the loop of my main Hotel query as such:
Now this is working fine however I need to allow the user to be able to SORT the page by price ascending / descending and as the price is not physically assigned to the main Hotel query, I am not sure how I can do this.PHP Code:
// main query loops through all Hotels and pulls out values such as $hotelid and shows the hotel details on the page
$qry = "SELECT hotelid, field2, field3 etc...";
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($link,$qry)) {
$hotelid = $row['hotelid'];
// now a second query to get the minimum hotel room price for this Hotel
$min = "SELECT MIN(CAST(sellcost AS DECIMAL(8,2))) AS price FROM tblhotelrooms WHERE hotelid = $hotelid LIMIT 1";
$minres = mysqli_query($link, $min);
Does the second query need to be integrated with my first query somehow so I can then sort by it?
If so, could anyone help in constructing that query structure?
Many thanks for reading and any help offered.
