Dawn of War 3 Escalation Mechanic: Everything We Know So Far
Eight years after the release of Dawn of War 2, Relic Entertainment will release its sequel, Dawn of War 3 , on April 27, 2017. One of the latest features of the game includes the Escalation Mechanic and here's how it works.
The multiplayer mode of Dawn of War 3 focuses on the destruction of the enemies' core located in their bases. In order to do so, players have to destroy the turrets guarding it. In order to damage the turrets, they have to first destroy a shield generator.
This is where the Escalation Mechanic in Dawn of War 3 comes in. Whenever players lose a generator in the early game, they will have a hard time coming back from the match. The new mechanic simply changes how reimbursement and resource work through the course of a match.
In the previous Dawn of War 2, losing a shield generator early game can determine the outcome of the match. Meanwhile, the Escalation Mechanic ensures that the loss of one will not have much of an impact in the late game.
Decreased Refund & Increased Resource Flow
During the early game, players only have access to a relatively low amount of resources, but losses are forgiving. Every time the escalation increases, the reimbursement goes down but the resource flow rises. Meanwhile, health on generators, turrets, and the power core will also increase.
Developers seem to want to include the concept of comebacks within their game. Players are encouraged to probe the enemy early game and engage into combat without suffering too much casualties.
Its whole purposem according to Reddit usersm is to speed up the gameplay and make it more action filled. Having players just focus on base-building on the start and have the battles later on the game will have its down times.
Meta Shift
The game's meta will change overall because of the Escalation Mechanic. Instead of having more units charge in at the enemy, players must revolve around this time-based mechanic, use it to their advantage, and attack.
The Escalation feature prevents snowballs from occurring, so if a player manages to destroy a turret first, it will not result into a stomp. Players can take advantage of the early game changes to the refund or decide to stall it out until late game for the extra resources.
The game is out now for pre-order over at the Dawn of War official site. It is available in Basic, Limited, and Collector's Edition fro US$59.00, US$64.99, and US$129.99, respectively.

Warrior looks in
through my eyes
– -child wanting candy.
peers inward
through a delicate green lace
perhaps seeking the place
my soul lingers- –
seeking his manifest destiny
or some quandary to debate.
Not seeing me for me
behind this face
– -still- -cold
braced and fevered
in this darkened place.
My castle walls
I embrace- -a blanket
of cerulean blue- -tattered.
– -Web like
gray fibers fray
along the edges,
from time's time
with time folding backward
on itself.
Deep inside me he roams
empty chambers- -pulling
at flitting shadows
– -all the specters
I am.
Oh, if he could set them free
they long for light
of dreams and fancy flight
– -silent butterflies. Yet
– -still- -specters cling to me
lover's whispers,
they sigh
and I sedate them
with a cerulean blue blanket
and the inward touch
of a Celtic Warrior's hands.

Bloomberg Law for HR Professionals is a complete, one-stop resource, continuously updated, providing HR professionals with fast answers to a wide range of domestic and international human resources...
By Larry Swisher
Jan. 22 — Median weekly earnings of full-time working men increased more than those of women in 2015, widening the gender pay gap, Labor Department figures showed Jan. 22.
Women's full-time earnings rose just 0.7 percent over the 12 months ended in the fourth quarter of 2015, lagging the 2.8 percent gain for men.
Women's pay equaled 80.4 percent of men's in the final three months of the year, compared with 82.1 percent in the fourth quarter of 2014, according to Bloomberg BNA's analysis of the figures. In other words, women earned nearly 18 percent less than men. The earnings gap generally has narrowed over time from a high of 39 percent in 1979.
The pay figures include wages and salaries, overtime, commissions and tips of full-time workers ages 16 and older.
In the most recent period, male full-time workers reported they usually earned $907 per week compared with the $729 per week reported by female workers. The median is the midpoint, where half of workers earn more than that amount and the other half, less.
Over the past 10 years, the women's-to-men's earnings ratio has been unchanged from 80.4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Changes in earnings by demographic group over time can reflect many factors, including shifts in the proportion of the population employed in higher- and lower-paying industries and occupations, according to the DOL's Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Among all workers by job category in the fourth quarter, those employed in management, business and financial operations had the highest median weekly earnings ($1,287), while those employed in service occupations were the lowest paid ($520).
Higher education is another factor that increases earnings. Among full-time workers ages 25 and older, those with an advanced degree—professional or a master's or higher—received the highest median weekly pay in the fourth quarter ($1,445), nearly three times as much as workers with less than a high school education ($502).

What a Realization
As you can see I have not been posting as regularly as what I had started to. I was doing great with my workouts, losing weight and eating really well. Then came the holidays and the cold. Here is where my progress started to come to a stand still.
I had made it to Halloween and was doing good at not snacking on the candy my son had accumulated during trick or treating. Somewhere between Halloween and Thanksgiving I got lost. I was trying to be mindful of what I ate, but my exercise was severely lacking. I kept trying to get back in the groove, but I completely had fallen off the wagon.
Throughout the past couple of months I realized I didn't have it in me to jump back on the wagon. I stopped trying to eat healthy and stopped exercising. I hadn't weighed myself in quite some time either. I just kept telling myself that I was probably maintaining my weight and that was pretty good. I could slap myself right now for thinking that way. I stared at my Big Girl On a Quest facebook page and felt ashamed that I had not kept up with all of the wonderful things everyone else was still doing.
So now what? I summoned up the courage to actually step on the scale and see the damage I had done to myself over the holidays. The results sent me into tears. I was staring at a number I could not believe...251. Not only did I in no way maintain my weight, but had gained past my original starting weight. I felt so many things at one time. Anger. Disappointment. Sadness. Hopelessness. Defeat.
How could I do this to myself?! I let myself get back this way and now I have to work even harder to get out of this. I knew in the back of my head that I had been gaining weight because my clothes were feeling tighter. The new clothes that I had bought when I lost weight no longer fit. I have honestly come to hate this cycle of weight loss.
That moment on the scale was my turn around point. I will not do this to myself! I need to get back on the grind and start making the RIGHT/HEALTHY decisions. I will no longer overindulge in things that will harm my body. I do not want to feel this way anymore. My hardest part is trying to manage my time. During the time I had started to fall off the wagon was when I started nursing school full time. Having 2 kids, a husband, a job and full time school is not an easy schedule. I need to figure out how to work this out instead of just making the excuse of not being able to do it. NO EXCUSES!!!
Tomorrow is my 28th birthday and it scares me that I am at this weight. I have two beautiful boys that I want to be around for and be able to run and play outside without getting out of breath. My boys are very active and it is time for me to be as well. When I reach my 29th birthday I would love to be able to look back at this post and see how far I have come. I do not want to be feeling this way or in this situation on my next birthday. This will be my birthday present to myself for this year and next year.
Happy Birthday to Me!

You can do this. I know you can. I was in a similar position 6 years ago, and then I lost 50 pounds over 9 months (and felt GREAT!).ReplyDelete
It wasn't easy, I was not an exerciser, and didn't feel like I had any will power. But by taking it one day at a time, I did it.
Don't beat yourself up anymore. Look forward and not backward. What's done is done, and you CAN do this!!

When you head up big data initiatives, keeping the board informed is one of your most important tasks.
You should present big data and analytics in the context of what they bring to the company, especially in very visible areas like revenue gains, operational efficiencies, cost savings, and returns on technology investments. It is also important to lay the groundwork (especially if board members aren't tech savvy) so your board understands enough about how analytics work to see how they fit into the big picture and benefit the business.
If you're going to brief the board on big data and analytics, read these five important tips.
1: Keep the tech specifics and jargon to a minimum
There are so many buzzwords in IT, that if you're around it every day, you can easily lapse into the lingo and forget that your non-technical audience isn't familiar with it—work hard to avoid this. It's critical to use plain English to explain complicated technical concepts like data cleaning and aggregation, developing data algorithms, and processing data on Hadoop until it comes out in reports. In short, don't get technical unless they ask for it.
One thing you can do is a dry-run of your presentation to a non-technical audience before you present to the board. The individuals in your "test group" can give you helpful suggestions on any area of your presentation that they find confusing, so you can make adjustments.
SEE: Launch a big data strategy awareness campaign (TechRepublic)
2: Illustrate what you talk about
If you have visually engaging media that the board can see during your talk, or if you have a specific business case where analytics was used that you can present to illustrate its value, your message will be more compelling, and it will enhance your ability to connect with your board.
SEE: Mobile analytics: 10 great apps to visualize big data on the go (TechRepublic)
3: Show results
If your board has already given you a vote of confidence and funding, show board members the results from your big data and analytics project. Explain how analytics improved revenue capture or operational performance—better yet, show how the analytics contributed to the bottom line.
4: Set a plan for status updates
If you are presenting to your board on big data and analytics for the first time, part of the objective should be to set a foundation for future updates. Ideally, the goal should be to brief the board on your progress with analytics on a quarterly basis; this keeps the topic fresh in board members' minds.
5: Answer questions
Always leave time for questions at the end of your presentations. If you can't answer a question on the spot, table it and tell the board that you will be getting back to them on it shortly.

UK won't deport Vijay Mallya, FM Jaitley says not surprised
Liquor baron Vijay Mallya who is embroiled in money laundering charges, remained elusive to India as the United Kingdom has informed the government that they cannot comply with their request to deport him, but are ready to consider the option of Mallya's extradition.india Updated: May 11, 2016 11:36 IST
Britain has told India that it cannot deport Vijay Mallya, who is facing money laundering charges in the country, but could consider an extradition request for him.
The UK government's response came nearly a fortnight after India made a request for the deportation of Mallya, whose Indian passport was revoked in a bid to secure his presence for investigations against him under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act 2002.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said he was not surprised by the UK government's stand but the government is working on the deportation process.
Similar stand has been taken by Britain earlier too: Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in Rajya Sabha on #VijayMallya— ANI (@ANI_news) May 11, 2016
"What I have learnt so far is that deportation can't be allowed if someone entered UK through valid passport and then its cancelled.Another alternative process, is that when chargesheet is filed after investigation, then extradition has to be demanded," Jaitley said in Rajya Sabha on Wednesday .

MEA's response
According to a statement by Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) official spokesperson Vikas Swarup, "the UK Government has informed that under the 1971 Immigration Act, the UK does not require an individual to hold a valid passport in order to remain in the UK if they have extant leave to remain as long as their passport was valid when leave to remain or enter the UK was conferred."
Read more:ED wants non-bailable warrant against Vijay Mallya
However, the UK has acknowledged the seriousness of the allegations and has expressed its keenness to assist India in the matter and have asked the government to consider requesting mutual legal assistance or extradition.
What is the difference between deportation and extradition?
Deportation is basically a done at the government level through executive order after vetting the evidence produced by a country where the fugitive is required for any offence he or she may have committed there. But extradition is a formal process wherein evidence against a fugitive is produced before the court for vetting. In extradition, a judicial decision is taken for sending back a fugitive to the country where he or she is required to face law. It is normally a longer process than deportation .
The extradition can happen under the 1993 treaty or any other necessary assistance under the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) signed in 1992 between India and the UK.
However, India was hoping to get the liquor baron, who is facing arrest over allegations of defaulting bank loans of over Rs 9,400 crore, through the expeditious route of deportation and not go through the lengthy process of extradition.
Earlier, the Patiala House court issued a notice to Mallya on a plea of the Enforcement Directorate (ED), seeking to withdraw the exemption granted to him from personal appearance in a case of allegedly evading summons in connection with purported violation of the Foreign Exchange Rules.
The court has sought Mallya's response by May 20.
The ED plea also sought issuance of a non-bailable warrant against the chairman of defunct Kingfisher Airlines to secure his presence in the ongoing trial of the case.
Mallya, currently in Britain, is accused of defaulting on payment of bank loans totalling Rs. 9, 000 crore.
The Centre had earlier revoked Mallya's diplomatic passport and told the Supreme Court that it would soon initiate court proceedings and approach the British Government for his extradition.
The Enforcement Directorate last month obtained a non-bailable warrant against Mallya from a Mumbai court in a money laundering case.

According to a new survey report by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), 84% of organizations are now using social media for recruiting, up from 56% in 2011. These survey results add detail and paint a picture of what has become obvious: more and more, employers are posting job openings and information for job seekers on social media. And when these posts are not accessible, employers may be missing out on top talent.
Ben Caldwell reports on the successes of the recent WWW+W4A Hackathon hosted by PEAT and Google Montreal to make H5P (a popular web-based product used widely in workplaces and schools) more accessible. "It was truly inspirational," he notes, "to see how much progress a small group of individuals can make...particularly given that the majority of participants were new to both H5P and accessibility."

Emerging Technology Assessment DRM by Group C3 Digital Rights Management
Digital Rights Management - Group C32 Definition & Brief History Copyright and data protection: –Which subscriber has what type of access to which content for what period of time Two main applications: –Content producers (entertainment, news…) –Business content (records, documents…) History: –Increased digitisation of content in last 10 years –Growing concerns over Piracy 50 %97%Peru 80 %85 %Ukraine 88 %90%China VideoMusicCountry Market share of illegal copies (est. 2001). Source: IIPA
Digital Rights Management - Group C33 Definition & Brief History A set of technologies - No standard Examples! –CD, DVD, SACD –Apple iTunes, Microsoft Windows Media Player, Real Player, Adobe Acrobat… –Databases and application servers (IBM, Oracle, Microsoft, BEA…) How? Blend of cryptographic technics and limitations on actions performed on the player
Digital Rights Management - Group C34 DRM Impact on Persistent Business Needs Customer / Brand –Closer to consumers, alternative models, easier Cycle Time –Reduced time-to-market, scale easily, tracking Resources –Online models = less resources per customer Cost & Capital –Protect assets, generate new opportunities EDI or Media, the impact is positive.
Digital Rights Management - Group C35 Controversial Issues Different paradigms: Techies vs. Media –Broadband, bandwith, P2P, free software –Copyrights, protections schemes, DMCA lobbying ROUND 1 1 - 0 ROUND 2 0 - 1 X
Digital Rights Management - Group C36 Controversial Issues No agreed technological standard –Wont profit the incumbents yet –But necessary to grow in the future Time Market share Based on standard technology Based on proprietary technology Apple, Microsoft, Real and Sony should stop trying to steal market share and start working on compatible standards. As the dominant player, Apple has the least to gain from this, while Microsoft has the most Paul Jackson 25/08/04, Forrester
Digital Rights Management - Group C37 The Future of DRM Absorption by the infrastructure –Web services, Windows Longhorn, Players… Standardisation – limited set of norms Industry consolidation (food chain)
Digital Rights Management - Group C38 The hype cycle The moment you were waiting for…
Digital Rights Management - Group C39 Conclusions 1.Consolidation and standardisation in this industry are inevitable. 2.Digital Rights Management technologies are increasingly impacting businesses. 3.Entertainment companies already rely on such technologies to protect sources of revenues. 4.DRM will be at the heart of Media businesses. 5.As EDI is implemented, companies will rely on DRM solutions integrated in infrastructure.
Digital Rights Management - Group C310 Q&A So far, we spared you this… Consumer-oriented protection and control of intellectual property distributed in digital form from misuse or copyright infringement, usually focused on anti-redistribution mechanisms. -Gartner

Your flooring does not need to be all flat. Carpets are usually great ideas to textures your flooring.

Your wood flooring can be accented with the use of mats or carpets only in certain areas facing your focal points of the home.
Then you have Sony Ericsson C902 outfitted with a 5MP camera which has characteristics like 2592E1944 pixels, image stabilizer, autofocus, video clip shoot at the pace of 30fps, flash and a video contact secondary digital camera. Sony Ericsson telephones are always known for their songs quality. The C902 too has a excellent media participant which can play files like MP3/AAC/MPEG4 information and there is an inbuilt FM radio along with technologies like TrackID songs recognition.
Connectivity of the Sony Ericsson K320i is exalted by option options such as GPRS, HSCSD, Bluetooth, infrared and USB. Thus accessing internet and wirelessly transferring files gets to be simple with the gadget. Individuals find it amazing to share information and stay linked with other people with this handset.

Besides being a stunning cellular phone, the Nokia 8800 arte with profitable pay as you go mobile telephone deal also offers a long checklist of other features. These attributes include GPRS, EDGE and GSM 900/1800/1900 MHz for data and voice connectivity. The wi-fi Bluetooth function also assists the users in connecting the phone with any suitable device.
There are methods that are required to be carried out correct prior to you are heading to paste the pre pasted Wallpapers. Make certain that the walls are even without any holes, cracks or something that can cause for the tribal wallpaper to have uneven areas. Also, make sure that it is completely cleaned. You might want to do the entire project for a couple of times. That way, you have time for the cleaning of the wall and the pasting of the high Res desktop backgrounds.
Yes, this system can make money from your referrals (assuming 'the business' pays out), and it will surely entice a great deal of people. But it ultimately will split down and depart a great deal of people out-of-pocket much much more than $25 and if they are saying "Pay Me Forward is a rip-off" you need to be in a position to deal with that.

Charlotte Regan is a 22 year old film maker and BorrowFox user who has already received great acclaim for her work. She is a BAFTA nominated writer/director, a Sundance Ignite Fellow, and, according to her twitter bio, her nan's favourite person.
I've seen Standby. I thought it was fantastic. I found it to be equal parts simple, humorous, and poignant. You only get to see these characters for five minutes and yet you immediately feel a connection to them. How did this story come about?
CR: Thanks so much! The story of how it came about is not too inspiring to be honest, I knew I had a really small budget to make a short film, I'd always done music videos and really wanted to step away from that with a short. So I tried to think of a story that was contained and had always wanted to do something set in one location as it was my first film. It was a nice way to focus entirely on characters and dialogue instead of having the other worries of shots, background artists etc. So it was more so grown out of convenience and necessity than it was a particular moment of inspiration… like I said not too inspiring of a story *laughs* sorry!
Once you had the initial idea for the film, how long did the writing process take? How long did the actual filming take?
CR: After I had the initial idea the script was written over about a week but it changes here and there up until the shoot too, and there was a lot of improv as the actors really became their characters and had the freedom to riff off each other between takes as we kept rolling, I'd say the film is about 20% improv as all he actors were awesome.
We shot over two days, the cinematographer Bradley Stearn had prepped so well so we were able to do quick changes for each scene as he was really on top of everything which saved us a lot of time.
What type of kit did you use?
CR: We used Canon kit, as it was a low budget shoot and the camera had to be mounted to the car we knew we had to use something relatively light weight and accessible. We used a car rig to mount it to the windscreen and a black cloth to stop daylight reflecting (the car was towed so the characters didn't actually have to drive) and making us unable to see the characters. Using the Canon ended up being a big help as I wanted to be quite loose with the improv between takes, the low file sizes allowed us the freedom to film continuously without worrying about gigantic file sizes that you'd get with a Red or Alexa.
I also watched the music video for Netsky that you worked on. What type of challenges did you face as the live action director for a video that relies on equal parts live action and animation?
CR: I'd never really worked with animation or even looked into the process so I went into it very new to it all, the challenges were knowing the characters limitations, for example knowing that the character couldn't fully turn his head because that wouldn't be possible with the style of animation. Luckily the animation team from Powster were on set and gave me constant guidance as without them I'm sure it would of been an absolute nightmare in the edit. It was also one of the biggest shoots I'd done in terms of crew and cast size so it was a daunting experience to have the challenge of animation alongside that but luckily all the crew were great and very patient with my lack of knowledge.
Other creative industries don't require paying members of a crew, buying expensive cameras and equipment, or hiring actors. How have you handled the challenge of budgeting in a creative industry that so often requires a large amount of cash on hand?
CR: I think as I've come from no budget music videos I've always seen what was doable with no money and I take that attitude to bigger projects, knowing that if a certain type of location wants hundreds of pounds for us to use it we could no doubt re-create that shot in my house and save ourselves a fortune. There are of course limits without budgets but you can always find great crew down to work for free if they like the project and if the story is strong you can make a great film on a phone or DSLR, you have to work with what you have which is why places like BorrowFox are such a big help to new filmmakers.
You have already achieved great success as a young film maker. Do you have any tips for film makers and screenwriters who are just starting out?
CR: I don't think I'm in a position to give much advice as I'm still struggling myself *laughs* but just work with what you have and find and keep your team so you can all grow and learn together. Story is what matters so if you have to shoot your short on an iPhone then just make sure it's a great story that perhaps hasn't been explored in the way you want to explore it.
How do you think BorrowFox fits into the independent film scene?
CR: I think BorrowFox is such a great help to the indie film scene, I can and have used borrow fox to entirely kit up for a short film and saved myself a fortune, it's also great for self shooters like myself who often do freelance jobs that require a certain bit of kit but don't have the budgets to go to big hire houses that often require public liability insurance and the hassle of going to the other side of London to pick up kit. It's also great for last minute jobs where you need to quickly find a bit of kit near to you, talking to another fellow filmmaker direct is also so much easier than dealing with a company. You can shoot your entire short film with BorrowFox found kit which is incredible.

text: I just recieved word today that I will be recieving $2000 from my grandma as my graduation gift in 2-3 weeks. I am also selling my iMac G4 800 Mhz and a bunch of other stuff to put toward this setup. I have thought about it a lot, and decided I would rather get the 20" instead of the 17", what do you think? The total comes to a little over $3000 with tax. This is with student discounts of course. Any advice on how I could save money or what isn't worth getting in my selection? Edit: just realized I left the dock in there by accident, it comes with the av kit. SO minus $35!

Hiya, I'm Clare, I am a midwife (who'd have guessed) and a mum (no way, how did you know?). I made my way into motherhood in August 2015 and since then have been causing chaos left, right and centre as I work out this parenting thing. I won't lie, I like to tell you about my successes, but mostly my humorous failures – of which there are many.
I started writing when I was pregnant, I felt like a beached whale and wanted to tell the world that being "with child" was not always amazing fun. I didn't glow and I definitely didn't blossom. I stomped and moaned, really quite a lot. As I learned the ropes of being a mum I started documenting about family life and with it, the blog has grown.
If you'd have asked me 4 years ago if I liked writing, I would've told you no. But now I'm a little bit addicted to it. I love writing for my blog and other companies like BabyCentre UK and Huffington Post, and a day doesn't go by without me writing something or another. Ok, I'm quite a lot addicted to it. I've also worked with some fab brands like Slendertone, Aldi, Caseapp, Jord Wooden Watches and Sudocrem among others.
My daughter, Isabelle, is now 3 and is a whirlwind of energy and fun. She has a strong distaste for sleep, which is, unfortunately, one of my favourite pastimes. She hates peas but loves bananas and will happily watch Ben and Holly, Peppa Pig or the Paw Patrol all day. The only problem is I have to watch them with her, I can't be doing actual mum things when they're on, gah!
I'm easily accessible by email, but if I'm not around I'm probably asleep. I'd advise you don't wake me, I get grumpy when I'm tired. If you're interested in my professional side, you can find my media kit here. I also have a sister site called Where Mama Went, which concentrates on things to do in my local area, Warwickshire. Have a little look over there if you're looking for recommendations.
But for now, I'm off to watch another episode of Peppa, this time Peppa does some more inane crap and is as sassy as always, it is truly riveting viewing.

Sometimes good ideas come unplanned. I had a sweet potato I decided not to use to make gnocchi because I'd never cooked with sweet potatoes before and the entire concept of sweet potato gnocchi intimated me (regular gnocchi is difficult enough), so I thought, why not a flatbread? I didn't have all the ingredients I wanted to use, but I worked with what I had and the result was better than I expected. I was all set to use Gorgonzola but discovered the tub I just bought was sealed improperly and thus the cheese was covered in mold, so I was forced to use canned Parmesan instead, which I was afraid wouldn't have the right flavor. It turned out not to be a big issue.
Lessons learned: sweet potatoes cook quickly when cut into ribbons and they get a nice light crisp on the edges. It's a great way to make them if you're short on time and don't want big mouthfuls of sweet potato in a dish (I actually wish I had used a little more; potatoes cook down). Also, they taste great with walnuts and don't necessarily need cheese if you use them on a flatbread. I could barely taste the Parmesan cheese, but didn't feel the flatbread needed any cheese flavor to be successful. The key for me was the contrast of sweet from the potato and balsamic reduction with the nutty flavor from the walnuts.

Thoughts on the links between poverty and literacy
Hey everyone,
Got home from training tonight and found the following message in my inbox courtesy of Carleton:
"October 17, 2005 is the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty - ending child poverty in Canada - National Day of Action. It is also "Wrap it in White Day" - the White Band is the symbol of the Make Poverty History Campaign and wearing it in 2005 is about sending a message that you want to end poverty. Canada's campaign to end poverty calls for critical and meaningful policy change. Here is what we want in 14 words:
More and Better Aid. Trade Justice. Cancel the Debt. End Child Poverty in Canada.
WUSC Carleton and other campus groups invite you to join us on Monday, October 17 2005 in the Tory Quad at Carleton University between 12 and 5 pm to join together in the fight against poverty. There will be information booths, live music and many other displays and activities - and the White Bands will be available. In the centre of the Tory Quad we will be holding a Cardboard Village. Students will be asked to live in cardboard box for the day, as a visual representation of poverty. Any students interested should email firstname.lastname@example.com We will also be holding a food drive so we encourage you to bring with you any non-perishable food items.
Between 11:30am-1:00pm there will also be demonstrations in the Residence Dining Hall.
Also, at 7pm there will be a special showing of "Life and Debt" in the Commons Grille in the Residence Commons. Everyone is welcome!
All students are requested to wear white on October 17th to show their support for the campaign.
For more information, please visit http://www.makepovertyhistory.ca or
contact WUSC Carleton at firstname.lastname@example.com."
Anyway, got me thinking about the links between poverty and literacy. Lyndsay passed out one of the Movement for Canadian Literacy (MCL) fact sheets on the issue tonight at training. You can find it online HERE. Basically, it provides some facts about how Canada's high rate of illiteracy/undereducation is not simply an eduation problem. It is a symptom of deep and widespread social inequality created, in large part, by poverty.
For those of you at training tonight, Lyndsay also mentioned another Fact Sheet from MCL on literacy and families. You can find that one HERE.
Looking forward to meeting more of you tomorrow at our second training.

1. I read Fantasy ever since I can remember. 2. My guilty pleasure is chick lit. And 3. You can call me Nya.
NB I do not claim to be a literature expert, these are only my opinions. I am also here and here.
Busy week but I have managed to finish the following:
Very instructive indeed! :) Particularly because of the book 'How To Write Science Fiction & Fantasy' I have now another extensive TBR list of books to read or reread. It'd be interesting to know how I'd feel about books that I've read when I was younger ( I didn't really keep track / reviews).
Now, I am even scared to look at my TBR now, so I will give you my immediate TBR (ASAP TBR):
Almost finished:
And I got this one from the author via Twitter, so I want to finish this one too:

I got her the prettiest purple scrapbook with blue green ribbons. She loved it! She has been taking pics of all her visitors so now she has something to stick those pics and all her cards, etc. She is excited about the project and eagerly started on it as soon as she opened the gift.
I wish scrapbooks were that pretty when I was her age. I had to settle for the school-grade plane red stapled one from Kingston Bookshop with white leaves. She is an avid reader so she has gotten many books. So this one gets her imagination going in an entirely new direction.
I am not certain why comments were removed from the previous post- I didn't adjust any of the settings- but let's hope that it is back for this one.

There are various kinds of injuries. A number of them are extremely fast and acute like a vehicle accident or perhaps a fall. Other medication is chronic and occur more than a lengthy time period for example contact with asbestos or negligence.
First here is some information just a little concerning the fast and acute facets of certain kinds of injuries. The vehicle accident is among the most broadly known types of personal injuries that there's. Why this really is, is the fact that nearly every country on the planet has cars and where you can find cars you will find accidents, and where you can find accidents you will find individuals with hospital bills, auto shop bills, time from work, and discomfort and suffering that should be covered which is in which the personal injuries attorney stages in and files claims. A few of the primary reasons for personal injuries inside a vehicle wreck are whiplash, damaged bones, concussions, sprains, gouges, and comas.
Another kind of fast acting or acute injuries may be the fall. This kind of injuries takes place when an individual slips and falls and hurts themselves because of the negligence from the party to blame. Types of this is often ice that's been permitted to create around the stores front steps, or perhaps a laundry soap which has spilled within the aisle of the grocery.
Negligence reaches sleep issues from the personal injuries spectrum for the reason that negligence is really a chronic and reoccurring factor. Negligence is referred to as careless, without appropriate or sufficient attention. This really is frequently the situation in nursing facilities and day cares. Most likely why this occurs happens because those who are hired to handle the seniors and also the youthful are frequently occasions under trained and under compensated which leads to frustration or anger, which results in negligence.
Another kind of chronic injuries comes by means of mesothelioma cancer. This ailment or cancer is nearly always brought on by lengthy-term contact with asbestos. Should you or someone you know has this illness which is thought to came from the workplace of facility then it might be advised to find the specialist help of the mesothelioma cancer lawyer.
Now they are just a few kinds of injuries cases that the personal injuries attorney will often consume his career. It doesn't mean there are no more cases available that the injuries attorney will require. For example prescription errors, faulty products, and wrongful deaths are only a couple of.

President's Page
by Sam Huhn
For at least a couple of reasons, the month of March has always been an important one for the Blinded Veterans Association. Although one of the two criteria for this assertion skirted us a bit this year with our mid-winter Board meeting and testimony occurring in late February, the anniversary of BVA's founding on March 28, 1945 can never be altered.
Happy Birthday, BVA!
On that noteworthy day, now 68 years ago, approximately 100 blinded patients at Avon Old Farms Convalescent Hospital responded to a notice about a meeting that was organized by Baynard Kendrick, a staff member at the hospital and author of "Lights Out," a novel that was later made into a movie about a veteran blinded in World War II.
The March 28 meeting elected a President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and five additional members of a Board of Directors. A legal advisor drew up the Constitution and Bylaws in accordance with their wishes and Baynard Kendrick was appointed Honorary Chairman and BVA's official Sighted Advisor.
Shortly thereafter, the Board located our first national office. It was a desk in the corner of the Gundy Tea Room in Farmington, Connecticut. According to Ray Frey, BVA's first National President, the Association proudly agreed to receive no help, financial or otherwise, from any outside source.
Ray later recounted how difficult it was for him to comprehend how he and other Board members believed that they could run BVA on a $20 initiation fee plus $5 of yearly dues. A special meeting called in January 1946, just ten months later, changed all of that. Changes included abolishing the $20 initiation fee and establishing a $1 membership fee, a determination to accept gifts and donations from nonprofit organizations, and the setting up of a trust fund with the American Foundation for the Blind. How times have changed in some respects and how they've stayed nearly the same in many others! In the end, however, notwithstanding all that the organization has been through and confronted, here we are celebrating BVA's 68th birthday! Who can argue that the organization is not now in its golden age?
Just as it is useful for us to do some pondering, reflecting, and questioning on our own birthdays, it may be worthwhile to do the same as we remember BVA's history and accomplishments on behalf of blinded veterans. In doing so, I wish to pose three questions:
First, have you attended one of the 13 Department of Veterans Affairs residential Blind Rehabilitation Centers (BRCs)? If not, please make doing so an important part of your future plans. If you have attended a BRC, please note that BVA's advocacy served as a catalyst for its establishment and construction. When the Old Farms facility closed as a hospital, BVA urged VA to open a rehabilitation center for the adjustment and training of blinded veterans. In September 1948, the Hines BRC opened with blinded veteran Russ Williams as its first director. Russ would later serve 27 years as VA Chief of Blind Rehabilitation. As demand and need have both increased, BVA has been at the forefront of efforts to open additional BRCs at VA facilities.
Second, have you seen your Visual Impairment Service Team (VIST) Coordinator recently? VA now employs 123 full-time VIST Coordinators and 38 who work part-time. These individuals serve as the key case managers for blinded veterans nationwide. There are also 81 full-time Blind Rehabilitation Outpatient Specialists (BROS) in the system. BVA was instrumental in establishing the VIST and BROS programs at their outset, in increasing the numbers of Coordinators at various points along the way, and in spurring legislation that would provide VA scholarships to future BROS. If you have not recently seen your VIST Coordinator or BROS, you are not taking full advantage of what BVA has accomplished on your behalf.
Lastly, what do you know about VISOR? The Visual Impairment Services Outpatient Rehabilitation Program, or VISOR, provides comprehensive low-vision and rehabilitation services to veterans with vision loss. The program typically lasts ten days. It includes HOPTEL (a hotel room within a hospital setting) service for veterans and families and follow-up to ensure the successful transfer of learned skills to the home.
In late summer 1998, the leadership of the BVA of Pennsylvania Regional Group attempted to find a home for 15 beds that were being spun off from the Eastern Blind Rehabilitation Center in West Haven, Connecticut. The VA Medical Center in Lebanon seemed a likely home since it had been a previous contender for a residential BRC. Thanks to the help of dedicated VA officials and some smart politicking by leaders of the regional group, the first VISOR was born. And, thanks also to additional BVA advocacy efforts in the new Millennium, VISORs have continued to increase nationwide! It truly behooves our
reading audience to check out this program. It may well be a perfect fit for many of you!
Truly we can stand in awe of BVA's long history of service to blinded veterans and the influence the organization has had in helping us experience a quality of life superior to that which we would have otherwise had.
On February 28, I sat at the table in our annual testimony with a representative of Wounded Warrior Project, another from American Ex-Prisoners of War, another from The Retired Enlisted Association, another from the Non Commissioned Officers Association, still another from Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, another from The Military Order of The Purple Heart, and still one more from the Military Officers Association of America.
Choosing to deliver his oral testimony totally from memory, Sam Huhn rehearses major points just minutes before hearing convenes.
It was an honor for me to speak on behalf of BVA in that setting and an overwhelming feeling to know that you elected me to do so.
In my brief remarks I mentioned our strong resolve that funding for battlefield eye injury research be increased, that Traumatic Brain Injury patients be better tracked for potential vision loss, that problems with implementation of the Vision Center of Excellence be fixed, that VA ensure compliance with Section 508 of the Americans with Disabilities Act for all electronic information affecting blinded veterans, and that VA provide beneficiary travel funding for disabled veterans otherwise unable to attend a blind rehabilitation program.
My sincere hope is that we might be as successful with the concerns I outlined this year as we have been on many occasions throughout our 68 previous years. I was honored to speak for BVA and have been privileged to serve as a National Officer and as National President.

Designing products will never be the same again
March 21, 2017
Balancing style and comfort is key in the fast-moving footwear and apparel business. For the design team at popular footwear brand Keen Shoes, making the transition from traditional sketch designs to 3D models was an real eye-opener that changed their entire approach to the craft. In the process, this shift enabled faster iteration and better creative synergy across the team, making it easier to keep pace with a loyal customer base.
I think what Modo does is it brings something entirely new to the table. It's a much more creative process than something like Rhino or some similar CAD tool.

Upon the death of her Mother from tuberculosis, Mildred began to grow more rebellious, starting to dislike her father and eventually leaving him altogether. In 1734 she met up with an Englishman, Kennith Whiting, and for the next year and a half they lived a very pleasant life together with the expectations of getting married. Little did Mildred know, Kennith was a dark and evil warlock, and upon finding out, became disloyal in attempts of setting herself free from him. Her attempts failed however, and on December 9, 1736, Mildred was sentenced to an eternal life as a witch. Once immortal, Kennith wanted nothing more to do with Mildred and the two went there own separate ways. Since then, Mildred has yet to find another whom she has been even close to the same relationship that she and Kennith had, for she fears they too will find out of her immortality. One such unsuspecting soul was that of an American, Quentin Collins, during his brief traveling period. Mildred fell deeply in love with Quentin, and followed him back to Collinsport, Maine where he lived, however finding that he already had everything he needed and more, let him go, and continued on her lonely life, but always watching over him.

Dark and evil forces had conjured up Mildred on this dark, stormy night; the plea of one she once loved whose family member was in distress had drew her back to a place she had once known, though very briefly. As Mildred stood above the unconscious girl, she thought about the man who had driven her here, Quentin Collins. She knew that this girl laying before her had her once lovers blood running through her, and for that, she envied her.
The girl shifted positions in the bed she was lying in, and then as Mildred continued to stare down upon her, began to gain consciousness. She gazed into her eyes, looking deep into her troubled soul, giving the girl a fright she presumed.
"Don't be frightened my dear, I am not here to hurt you in the least; I have been sent here to help you." Mildred sat down on the edge of the bed, continuing to watch Cecillia who had gained full consciousness and had sat up onto the bed.

Ontology-based clinical decision support system applied on diabetes
Master thesis

Issue date2017
MetadataShow full item record
Medical diagnosis is a multi-step process which is complex as it requires the consideration of many factors. Additionally, the accuracy of diagnosis varies depending on the skill and knowledge a physician has in the medical field. Using ICT solution, the physicians can be assisted so that they can make an accurate decision. Many applications have been developed to enhance physician performance and improve the patient outcome, however, the quality of these applications varies depending on knowledge representation methodology and reasoning approach adopted. Nowadays, ontology is being used in many clinical decision support as it formally represents the concepts and relationships of terms associated with medical domains which in turn improves the information processing, retrieval, and decision support. However, some of these applications do not explain their reasoning process; their knowledge base may not be built using the standard medical ontologies and they build ontology but fail to develop an application that a physician can use. The main objective of this thesis was to investigate how an ontology and its generic tools can be used to overcome the above challenges; how diagnostic can be formally represented and to implement a clinical decision support system that uses that ontology and diagnostic criteria to assist physician when making a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. The ontology extends DDO and has been designed in protégé 5.0.0 OWL-DL. 19 rules were created based on diabetes diagnostic criteria by using jena rule syntax and forward chaining inference. Furthermore, the system uses the jena rule engine to reason with patient data from ontology against the rules defined in a rule file to generate a patient diagnosis, recommendation and decision explanation based on the patient vital signs and blood glucose test result. As result, 4 patient's case was successful diagnosed; recommendation and decision explanation produced by the system undoubtedly matched the patient diagnosis. Overall system result is the same as the one expected by the physician, thus, makes it an expert system. The ontology supports the interoperability between CDSS and healthcare system and can be used for the management of the patient. Keywords: Clinical decision support system, diagnostic criteria, semantic web, ontology, diagnosis
