Fear for safety of kids
WARNING: Princiapl Deb Bowman with students Lily and Abby Dinneen, and Jackson and Bradley Eberle outside Kiewa Valley Primary School.MOTORISTS are being urged to take greater care around a North East school zone amid concerns for the safety of students.
Kiewa Valley Primary School principal Deb Bowman is concerned about drivers not following the rules around school crossings.
Vehicles must give way to anyone preparing to walk through the crossings when the flags are out.
Theycan't pass through until the pedestrians have completelycrossed.
Ms Bowman has sent out a flyer to parents and said the issue was about educating people.
"Some people haven't been stopping when people were waiting," she said.
"I think it's just about reminding people of what to do and making people aware of the issue.
"I've sent a flyer out saying staff and teachers were concerned about safety at the crossing.
"We're just reminding people to follow the rules."
The site, on Kiewa East Road, does not have enough traffic to be eligible for a crossing supervisor or flashing lights.
Leading Senior Constable Tim Park said people may be complacent due to the fact the area was quiet.
"The school zones in small country towns are just as important as the zones in Wodonga where it's busy," he said.
"People in smaller towns may be a bit more complacent as the traffic isn't as intense, butthe same rules apply.
"People need to be aware that when people are on or entering the school crossing, they need to give way."
The road is normally a 50km/h zone, but is 40km/h between 8am and 9.30am, and 2.30pm to 4pm, on school days.
Leading Senior Constable Park said police ran enforcement operations at school zones.
"We just want drivers to think about it a bit more," he said.
"We will be continuing to pay attention to school zones and crossings.
"The main concern is people failing to give way to someone on or about to enter the crossing."
He said it was an ongoing issue at many sites.

Far West conference
Ross Earl, general manager of the Bourke Shire Council, writes on issues in the Far West.
NSW Deputy Premier and Ministerfor Regional Development, Skills and Small BusinessJohn Barilaro will be the key-note speaker at the Western Division Shire Conference at Wentworth from Sunday to Tuesday February 28.
Murray MP Adrian Piccoli and the Parliamentary Secretary for Western Division, Rick Colless MLC, will also attend.
Mr Barilaro will attend the conference all day on Monday and join delegates for the conference dinner that night.
One of the questions that will, no doubt, be asked of Mr Barilaro will be the future of the Far West Initiative (FWI) and if it is to continue, what form it will take and how it will be funded.
Mayor Barry Hollman, Deputy Mayor Lachlan Ford and I will attend and will be interested to hear hisaddress and comments.
Bourke Shire Council has lodged a number of motions to the conference, some of which are designed to reinforce the existing policy of the Local Government Association of New South Wales while others deal with contemporary issues within local government.
Tourism. At the conference I intend catching up with the Cross Border CommissionerJames McTavish to progress the concept of the cross-border promotion of Southwest Queensland and Northwest NSWWales from a tourism perspective.
The area has a lot to offer and if we can encourage visiting the area, each of the towns can promote the attractions of the neighbouring towns no matter which side of the border they are located.
Algae.The "red alert" for blue green algae at Louth remains in place and the issue of amber alerts for a number of other locations, including Bourke, is a reminder to all residents to exercise caution in those parts of the river.
If we continue to get hot weather and low river flows there will be an increased probability of getting further outbreaks along the river system.
Full details in relation to what the alerts mean for domestic, recreational and stock use is contained on the NSWDepartment of Water website 梧桐夜网dpi.nsw.gov419论坛

Deregulation: Marshall stands with community
UPDATE: Member for Northern Tablelands Adam Marshall said he wont support any move which threatens the continuation of regular air passenger services between Moree and Sydney
"Moree's air link with Sydney is crucial for business, health services, tourism and government services and it cannot be jeopardised.
"I have had a number of discussions with the current carrier (QantasLink), mayor Katrina Humphries and community members over the past few days. I welcome and am proud of the local community's passion and determination to preserve this crucial transport link for the district and to maintain the regulated route. It is typical of Moree's spirit."
He said QantasLink signed a contract through to the end of 2018 to service the Moree community, on the basis of exclusivity with a regulated route.
"In my view, that contract must be respected and honoured.
"While we should have an open and informed conversation about whether a regulated or deregulated option is best for Moree and the continuation of an air service in the long term, no decision should be made, especially now, that negatively impacts the community.
Mr Marshall believed any discussion and decision-making process hadto recognise the unique nature of the Moree to Sydney route, servicing around 34,000 passengers per year.
"I'm not opposed to the principle of deregulation and I acknowledge that it may work in some places, but I feel strongly that it is not in the best interests of the Moree community at this time.
"Exclusivity, via regulation, is currently vital for the Moree to Sydney route and the ability of the community to attract and retain a carrier. This may change in the future, but it is certainly the case at the moment.
"That's why I stand with the community and Moree Plains Shire Council to maintain the regulated route and will make every effort to ensure this occurs.
"I will keep the community updated with progress, following the conclusion of the public consultation period.
LAST WEEK: MOREE Plains Shire councillors unanimously voted against deregulation at a meeting on Thursday night.
General manager Lester Rodgers said it was the most commitment he'd seen so far from the current council, taking a forthright position to support regulation.
"A submission will be prepared, having regard for survey results and discussions at the community meeting, on behalf of the community to tell the Minister we want a regulated route to remain," Mr Rodgers said.
Mayor Katrina Humphries said deregulation was discussed in debate at length.
"I'm proud to be a capitalist but there are somethings you have to be smart about and sometimes competition kills and we just haven't got enough people, I believe, travelling to maintain more than one air service."
Councillors, together, addressed points set out by Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance for their submission.
"We recorded the town meeting and will have survey results also included," she said.
During their meeting, Minister Constance sent out a statement that said better services and lower prices were behind the NSW Government decision to deregulate air services.
"Since we deregulated four routes last year (Cobar, Cooma, Mudgee and Narrabri), new services have started on three of them and on the fourth (Narrabri) the council recently announced it has chosen Northwest Airlines to operate services to Sydney."
The statement noted that keeping regulated routes did not guarantee it would remain in place.
"all it does is add unnecessary red tape and therefore cost for regional operators.
"I am determined to give regions the fair access to essential services they are crying out for."
He said pursuing deregulation increased competition, reduced barriers for new entrants to the market and reduced costs to passengers.
"We are also committed to lobbying the Federal Government to open up an extra five slots at Sydney Airport reserved specifically for regional routes."

White House strategist Stephen Bannon out-rants Donald Trump in rare speech
White nationalist Richard Spencer. Photo: Twitter/@TheeCurrentYearWashington: In a week in which the US media has been found to be vastly more credible than Donald Trump, the White House has doubled down in its war with reporters, with Trump's chief strategist Stephen Bannon declaring the new administration to be locked in an unending battle against the media and other "globalist" forces.
Claiming that Trump was "maniacally focused" on keeping his campaign pledges, Bannon warned in a speech to a conservative political conference of a daily fight against the media – which he often brands as the opposition party.
On stage with White House chief of staff Reince Priebus, Bannon assailed the media as, to use a Trump phrase from last week, the enemy of the American people.
"The mainstream media ought to understand something: all those promises are going to be implemented," he said.
This was CPAC, standing for Conservative Political Action Conference, where audience members have staged walkouts in the past because the likes of former Florida governor and failed presidential hopeful Jeb Bush was deemed to be not conservative enough.
Thousands of delegates come from across the country, and this year they are finding Washington a new fit. As they eagerly awaited Trump's scheduled speech on Friday, many seemed to forget that a few years ago they had booed him.
Others, too, have come full circle – Breitbart News, controlled by Bannon until last year, used to host an event for the uninvited, those who were ejected or not given a speaking gig, but this year as many as seven Breitbart employees are listed as speakers or panelists.
The conservative jamboree coincides with a series of polls that can be expected to anger Trump.
Not only did the Quinnipiac University poll find that it was Trump, not the media, that was the more bountiful source of "fake news", when respondents were asked who they trusted more, 52 per cent chose the media, compared with just 37 per cent who opted for Trump.
And despite partisan assessments by Republican and Democratic voters, when middle-of-the-road independent voters were included, 61 per cent disapproved of Trump's treatment of the media, compared with just 35 per cent who approved.
In the same poll, 58 per cent of respondents said they were embarrassed by Trump, with majorities seeing him as dishonest, not level-headed and lacking leadership skills. And though a majority saw him as intelligent, a majority also declared that he did not share their values.
Bannon was enthusiastic in his depiction of a White House at war with vested interests: "The corporatist, globalist media are adamantly opposed to an economic nationalist agenda that Donald Trump has."
As some in the cheering crowd leapt to their feet, Bannon put his foot down, seemingly out-ranting his boss: "He's going to continue to press his agenda and as economic conditions get better, as more jobs get better, they're [opposition] going to continue to fight. If you think they're going to give you your country back without a fight, you're sadly mistaken.
"Every day is going to be a fight. That is the promise of Donald Trump … All the people who've came in and said you've got to moderate. Every day in the Oval Office he tells Reince and I: 'I committed this to the American people, I promised this when I ran, and I'm going to deliver on this'."
Bannon, who speaks of his West Wing office as "the war room", stayed on the attack: "If you look at the opposition party and how they portrayed the campaign, how they portrayed the transition, how they portrayed the administration, it's always wrong … you saw them all crying and weeping [on election] night."
Describing Trump's abandonment of the Trans-Pacific Partnership "one of the most pivotal moments of modern American history", Bannon set out the Trump agenda as three "verticals" – national security and sovereignty; economic nationalism; and "deconstruction of the administrative state".
There was nothing convoluted in Bannon's language. But just to be sure, The Washington Post's Chris Cillizza offered a translation: "The message from Bannon was unmistakable: the enemy of Donald Trump and those who think like him is not, really, Democrats but, in actuality, the media. And the only way to combat the media is to fight like hell against them on everything and anything.
"Bannon doesn't want to change the media. He wants to totally dismantle the media. He wants to break its back and leave it for dead by the side of the road. And he's not afraid of telling the media to their faces about that plan."
But not everyone gets their way at CPAC. Alt-right movement leader and white supremacist Richard Spencer, who has been a delegate in previous years, was shown the door after CPAC executive director Dan Schneider declared from the lectern: "There is a sinister organisation that is trying to worm its way into our ranks – we must not be deceived by [a] hateful, left-wing fascist group."
It counted for nothing that Bannon, who after Trump is this year's second-most loved CPAC darling, last year declared Breitbart to be "the platform of the alt-right".
As Spencer spoke to reporters, a delegate who identified himself as "Grizzly Joe" interrupted with this message for Spencer: "F— you, you don't represent us. Get the f— out of here. You don't represent us. You're a piece of s—. I hope everybody got that."

Abstract: Entrepreneurship is an increasingly relevant and popular object of scholarly investigation. In this dissertation, I borrow relevant socio-cognitive constructs from the field of strategy and employ them to four relevant steps of the venture creation process. The purpose of this dissertation is to refine our understanding about perceptions in entrepreneurship through four essays. The first essay of the dissertation investigates entry into entrepreneurship. More specifically, I look at the relationship between institutional environment and predisposition to entrepreneurship as antecedents of entrepreneurial activity. The key insight is that, among other institutional factors, the perception of entrepreneurial activity positively moderates the role of innate predisposition to entrepreneurship. The second essay looks at the problem of resource acquisition when entrepreneurs have experienced business failure in the past. The key insight is that past failure is an ambiguous rather than a negative signal of entrepreneurial skill. When entrepreneurs provide additional information about their entrepreneurial skill, investors do not penalize past failure. The third essay addresses the problem of recruitment. The key insight is that startups can convey different types of information through their job advertisements and attract different types of early employees based on their level of human capital and risk propensity. The fourth essay looks at the step of technology product launch. The key insight is that perception of familiarity and creativity of category labels has an influence on their adoption to represent the technology product category. More precisely, I find that for both familiarity and creativity, there is an inverted U-shaped relationship associated to category labels' adoption. Through diverse theories and methodologies, the dissertation provides empirical support to the role perceptions play during the entrepreneurship process, and suggests rhetorical strategies entrepreneurs can exploit to gather resources and achieve competitive advantage.

Abstract: Do entrepreneurs differ from others with regard to their behavioral traits, and can beliefs held by employers about these differences lead to self-employedworkers being stigmatized in the labor market? Although central to the study of entrepreneurship, the literature does not provide a clear answer to these questions. This can partly be due to the inherent difficulty in answering them by resorting to observational studies. People can select into entrepreneurship because of their preferences for the non-pecuniary benefits of the occupation, but also because of opportunities that (only) they perceive. Based on the premise that reliance on multiple methodological approaches can contribute to the credibility of empirical results, this thesis explores the above questions by resorting to experimental techniques. It first tests the hypothesis of whether entrepreneurs are more action-oriented than other occupational groups. Analyzing the playing strategies of 100s of entrepreneurs, managers and employees in an optimal stopping game suggests that entrepreneurs are indeed more action-oriented than others. It is theorized that this is driven by their lower levels of loss aversion and higher levels of curiosity. The empirical test results showthat (i) entrepreneurs score indeed higher, on average, than managers and employees on curiosity and lower on loss aversion; (ii) the difference in action-orientedness between entrepreneurs and others vanishes when controlling for individual curiosity levels and (iii) an alternative treatment that provides subjects with counterfactual information (about what would have happened in case of continuing) increases their willingness to stop. Under some assumptions, the combination of these results leads to the conclusion that the higher action-orientedness of entrepreneurs can be linked to their greater curiosity, but not to their lower level of loss aversion. These findings support the intuitive idea that (curiosity driven) action-orientedness enhances the identification and/or exploitation of opportunities. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9612

An Investigation of the Relationship Between Entrepreneurial Experience and Entrepreneurial OutcomeToft-Kehler, Rasmus Vendler (Frederiksberg, 2018)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Entrepreneurs and investors alike rely on prior entrepreneurial experience and talent as vital clues for anticipating entrepreneurial performance. However, the extent to which entrepreneurial expertise accumulates and the extent to which entrepreneurial talent can be defined and measured remain open for debate. Therefore, the studies of this dissertation have been conducted with the aim of advancing our understanding of how entrepreneurial experience and entrepreneurial talent relate to entrepreneurial performance and behavior. Each study offers insights into how entrepreneurial expertise accumulates and is therefore of relevance to multiple stakeholders URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9597

Evidence from Sibling CorrelationsLindquist, Matthew J.; Sol, Joeri; Praag, C. Mirjam van; Vladasel, Theodor (Stockholm, 2017)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We assess the broad importance of family and community background for entrepreneurship outcomes. We go beyond traditional, intergenerational associations by estimating sibling correlations in unincorporated and incorporated entrepreneurship using register data from Sweden. Sibling correlations range from 20% to 50%. They are consistently higher for more committed and incorporated entrepreneurship than for less committed or unincorporated entrepreneurship; they are also higher for brothers than sisters. We then assess what factors drive these correlations: parental entrepreneurship, neighborhoods, shared genes and financial resources help explain these high correlations, whereas immigration status, family structure and sibling peer effects have a limited contribution. The higher correlation for incorporated versus unincorporated entrepreneurship is explained mainly by the type of parental entrepreneurial engagement and financial resources, while the gap between brother and sister correlations in unincorporated entrepreneurship is largely driven by the geographic concentration of male dominated industries.

The Role of the French
Laurence's book, however, reminds us that without the French, there would be no United States of America. We see that:
- The colonists could not win their war against Britain.
- The important contest was between the French and the British; the French won.
- Americans themselves were divided; some were in favor of the Revolution, others were not.
Among the telling details in the book are these:
The "rebel," "insurgent," or "terrorist" army of the colonials got far too little support from the Americans themselves. General Washington's men were starving and half naked at Valley Forge.
Historians estimate that one in five white people in Colonial America was opposed to independence. Laurence's account of the Battle of Yorktown tells us that there were as many as 9,000 "loyalists" on the British side.
We have not found support for that number elsewhere. But if it is true, more Americans fought against the Revolution at Yorktown than for it.
"You notice something strange about that painting?" asked the guide at the State Capitol in Richmond, Virginia, when we took a tour on a recent visit there.
Before him was a very large tableau, a painting of the Battle of Yorktown.
"You see British troops. And you see German troops. And French troops. But there are almost no American troops. That's because there weren't many Americans there."
We can't vouch for the accuracy of the Virginia State Capitol tour guides. But most historians agree that there were more foreigners in the battle than Americans.
Washington's Continental Army played a supporting role. The French – the Comte de Rochambeau and the Comte de Grasse – were calling the shots.
And though it wasn't always exactly clear where the money to buy ships, arms, ammunitions, and food for the Continental Army was coming from, funds needed at critical moments came from the French nobility, not America's yeoman villagers and farmers. Lafayette – one of the richest men in France – came forward with his own money to help the insurgents out at Valley Forge.
And it was François-Joseph Paul, the Comte de Grasse – arriving with 29 warships and 300,000 silver pesos raised in Havana – who made the final victory possible.
The Winning Strategy
It was also the Comte de Grasse, not Washington, who figured out the winning strategy. The British lieutenant general, Charles Cornwallis, had planted himself on a narrow peninsula in Northern Virginia.
He could defend himself easily on the landward side. But his back was exposed to the sea. This, he believed, posed no problem because the British fleet dominated the coast.
The French admiral de Grasse, however, spotted an opportunity. If his ships could get control of Chesapeake Bay, he could blockade the city of Yorktown. Cornwallis would be cut off by American/French forces on land and deprived of supplies from the sea by the French fleet.
He proposed the plan to Washington, who was skeptical. De Grasse then simply announced that that was what he was going to do. Washington followed.
Once the strategy was set, a joint French/American force feigned a move against New York and then slipped away and quietly headed south of the Potomac. Some floated down the Chesapeake. Others marched along the shore.
On the second and third of September, the American troops mutinied. They said they would not leave Maryland until they were paid. Again, the French saved the situation. The Comte de Rochambeau loaned Washington the money to pay them.
When the troops finally arrived in Yorktown at the end of September 1781, they closed off Cornwallis' escape route. This was the real test. But it was not a fight between the Americans and the English; it was a battle between a motley crew of regulars, militia, and mercenaries – with American loyalists supporting British troops and Hessians on one side… and American insurgents and French troops on the other.
But the battle on land would be nothing without a victory at sea. If the British fleet could break the French on the Chesapeake, the whole campaign would be a waste of time.
The decisive naval battle came on September 5. Twenty-nine French ships fought 19 English ships. The English were decisively defeated and forced back to New England for repairs. The French blockade held.
After that, it was just a matter of time. Cornwallis was running out of supplies. He could not break out on land because his retreat route was blocked by the American/French army, much of it under the command of the dashing young French general, the Marquis de Lafayette, whose marble face can be found in the rotunda of the aforementioned Virginia State Capitol facing a statue of General Washington.
In early October, Cornwallis was under attack from land and sea… with artillery blasting his defenses from both directions.
On October 19, the British raised the white flag.
When the battle was over, twice as many French as Americans had been killed. And the French intervention had been so expensive, it practically bankrupted the Bourbons.
Out of money, Louis XVI was forced to call a "parlement" of the people's representatives to approve new tax measures. This, of course, got out of hand, and the French Revolution resulted; Louis lost his head.

Le conseil
de Monsieur T.
If you have a cold, don't try to detect all the subtle aromas of this tea. Focus on the chicken noodle soup instead.
Xiao Zhong
This Chinese black tea from Fujian (Wuyi mountains) has nice twisted leaves. It exudes aromas of roasted parsnips, peanuts, malt and even chocolate, aromas that are skillfully superimposed on the usual sweet and sour character of tea. As there is also buds, the finale is both floral and sweet. An experience rich in flavors to make your taste buds dance.
For the record, it is said that this type of tea was born in the holds of ships carrying tea cargoes between China and Europe in the 17th century. This tea, green at its departure, had been completely oxidized in contact with the humid saturated holds of the boats. In fact, black teas were consumed in China long before the arrival of Westerners. (Ha!)

A great video light with a few shortcomings.
This on-camera light was an urgent replacement for another, earlier generation Vidpro light that sadly drowned whilst on assignment. I use these lights for both video and stills work (mostly for capturing socials at events and for creative, off-camera situations) and appreciate their compactness and controllability. The new model is about 30% brighter than it's predecessor but uses an add-on filter to control light temperature, unlike the earlier model that had bi-colour LEDs which makes it slightly less flexible in certain situations where the main light source is changeable.
The build quality is good and the unit is lighter than the earlier model, but it is not as sturdy and the controls seem rather less responsive. The LED panel is a newer design featuring an LED "carpet" style rather than independent bulbs of the earlier model and is much less rigid and I keep the diffuser filter on the unit to protect it whilst in my camera bag.
This is a good,versatile light for all situations, but I do wish I hadn't been careless with the earlier model as it was better overall, but Videoguys were AMAZING, getting this to me in Queensland with 48 hours of losing the original one - Thanks Videoguys!

Camera phone brand Oppo to release Oppo5 on Thursday
Kolkata, Nov 6 (IBNS): Camera phone brand OPPO recently unveiled the OPPO F5, its first FHD+ full screen display model in India, featuring the A.I. Beauty technology – a technology designed to personalize beautification for subjects on a selfie image.
The A.I. Beauty technology will take selfie photography to a whole new level, according to the company.
Priced at INR 19,990, the F5 (Gold and Black Edition) will go on sale from Thursday, November 9 and will be available both online and offline.
Two other models were also unveiled the same day, the F5 6GB edition priced at Rs 24,990 (Red and Black Edition) and the F5 Youth (Black and Gold Edition) .These two variants will be available in December.
Sky Li, Global VP, OPPO and President of OPPO India, said, "Our focus has always been on bringing the best photography and selfie experience to the Indian consumers. We have been leading the selfie industry in the Indian market with our Selfie Expert F series for which we have received immense response, especially from the youth. With the launch of F5 that offers the first A.I. Beauty technology in India, we are confident of going further ahead in this journey. Thus, the new brand slogan, The Selfie Expert and Leader, truly represents our ambition to continue being the leaders in the market."
OPPO also announced its new brand ambassador -- youth icon and Bollywood superstar, Sidharth Malhotra, in addition to Deepika Padukone.
Malhotra and photographer Rohan Shrestha shared their selfie experiences with OPPO F5 during the event.
According to the company, OPPO F5 is the first smart phone that brings Artificial Intelligence into selfie feature in India with years of R&D.
The feature identifies shapes and facial structures based on a global database.
Professional photographers and make-up artists were consulted during the R&D process, resulting in the A.I. technology having the ability to emulate those professional skills that can help selfies look more real and nature, the company.
According to the company, with more than 200 facial recognition spots that reference the image against a global database of human faces to learn facial features, shapes and structures, F5 can distinguish each person's face features from skin tone and type, gender, age and more.
After facial recognition, the AI Beauty technology will customize the image based on one's features from skin, eyes, lips, to face shape.
The feature will also have personalization for specific subjects. For example, enhancements will not be soft or feminine for male subjects. Children or babies will not receive enhancements that make them look like adults.
OPPO F5 comes installed with a 20MP front camera with an ultra-sensitive F2.0 aperture and 1/2.8" sensor.
Both features allow the camera to gain more information to produce better images with less noise in low light conditions, according to OPPO.
The front-camera Portrait mode also applies a Bokeh effect to the background, creating better gradation and making the photographer the focus of the selfie shot, every time.
The 16MP rear camera is excellent for all day and night shots, the company said in its release. Along with the F1.8 aperture, the back camera also performs brilliantly for brighter and more precise shots in darker settings, said OPPO.
The F5 will be OPPO's first 6.0-inch FHD + full-screen display device, features a high-resolution 2160 x 1080 dpi screen with 18:9 aspect ratio. F5 is also the first phone equipped with FHD+ full screen display in its price segment.
The sleek unibody of F5 follows OPPO's offers a visually slim appearance without any cut-offs, a curved body that fits well in the palm, and can be held a long time, without tiring the hand, the company said.
The 0.4mm laser string is carved onto the phone.
The F5 comes with Facial Unlock, the new face recognition technology that will recognize its user and unlock the phone.
If the user prefers to use the fingerprint unlock function, the fingerprint reader is on the back of the phone.
The phone runs on OPPO's Color OS 3.2, together with 4G RAM + 32GB ROM memory.
A triple slot tray supports two Nano cards and one TF card simultaneously.
The Octa-core CPU processor uses less energy, produces less heat while giving a higher performance speed (40% increased performance compared to the previous Color OS versions), said the manufacturer.
The F5 uses 3200Ah battery with Continuous Optimizing technology.
OPPO F5 also has some special features for the consumers, such as Game Acceleration specially targeted at Gamers.
This feature, according to Oppo, will offer a smoother game experience apart from optimizing the game display configuration to fully utilize hardware resource. It will also ensure minimal disturbance while gaming with incoming calls being shown in the form of a banner and not interrupting your game.
The O-share file sharing technology is 100 times faster than Bluetooth – 8 to 10 pictures (3MB each) can be transferred between OPP/O phones within 1 second.
The Split Screen feature will help in multi-tasking – chat, listen to songs or surf social media.

What motivates people? When it comes to the science of why, three concepts are consistently found: Purpose, Autonomy, and Mastery. Many pursuits, when done well, can fulfill all of these criteria. Karate is particularly well-suited to fulfilling these concepts.
The clearest motivation for karate is Mastery. Most people begin learning karate because they want to learn martial arts, and often continue in it to increase their knowledge and skill. The opportunity to get better is enticing to people. Even after achieving Shodan, students realize that there is more to learn, and are hungry for that knowledge, so continue training.
Autonomy is less clear, since the rank-ordered structure of the dojo implies that there is little autonomy. Autonomy can't be granted in the realm of, for example, what moves go with what counts in kata. But autonomy can come during paired exercises and during teaching opportunities. In our dojo, when I ask a student to teach another student, I don't often tell them, "And do it this way." The teacher has the autonomy to decide how they feel the information is best communicated. As the student increases in rank, they gain progressively more autonomy. A teacher should be able to trust the students to wield their autonomy responsibly.
At first glance, Purpose is not clear in martial arts. The goal of training is often given in the context of Mastery. For some, there is not a higher Purpose. At Athens Yoshukai, the Purpose we provide is social responsibility. Students feel they are a part of a community- not only our dojo, but the larger WYKKO. I hear the word 'family' used with Yoshukai, and I think many students see the Purpose as their contribution to this family. As a free school with an emphasis on traching, our students also feel a strong Purpose of spreading Yoshukai and martial arts knowledge.
Students should be exposed to all these elements of motivation. This will keep them motivated to stay in Yoshukai so they can continue to develop as students and people.

The handcrafted functional pots by ceramist Matt Jones are inspired by the traditional ceramics made in the Carolinas during the 19th and 20th Centuries. The shapes and simple decorations of his storage jars, pitchers, teapots and large garden planters make subtle reference to this historic past.
Jones received a degree from Earlham College (IN). He has exhibited to a large extent throughout the Eastern United States. His ceramics can be found in numerous collections including the Mint Museum of Craft + Design (NC).
"It is important that my work is grounded in the Carolina traditions that go back 150 years, but I feel quite free to incorporate a modern sensibility and ideas from other cultures. This approach keeps me interested and enthusiastic and seems appropriate for modern tastes and needs. Beauty and aesthetic pleasure should be integrated into the simple daily rituals that sustain us, from pouring tea to putting flowers in a vase. I am proud to make strong, functional wares out of locally dug clay, walking the tight rope between our cultural past and twenty-first century tastes."

Lips From Anvil Joins Another FN Podcast
Lips calls in to talk about their crowdfunding campaign, recording their 16th album in Germany, their new bass player, Monsters Of Rock Cruise, Mars Bonfire (writer of "Born To Be WIld") getting inspired by Anvil and writing songs for them, and more. (49:40 mark)
The Great Bobboo joins to talk NFL Fantasy week 2 and his Packer Fan Quote of the week.
I pay homage to Gene Harrington and bitch about One Million Moms boycotting "The Muppet Show"
For Immediate Release:
Twisted Sister front man Dee Snider sat down with the KISS fan podcast Three Sides Of The Coin to discuss his online "tiff" with KISS front man Paul Stanley and his Twitter battles with the KISS Army. Dee had made a statement about guitarist Tommy Thayer and drummer Eric Singer being imposters and Paul responded on Chris Jericho's podcast "Talk Is Jericho" by taking personal shots at Snider and his band rather than addressing what Snider had said.
Three SIdes hosts Michael Brandvold, Tommy Sommers, and Mark Ciccinni welcomed Snider to the show to have a discussion about the situation.
Dee started off by laying out as he called it, his KISS Kredentials. Being on the outskirts of New York and a fan of glitter rock, he had heard about this band called KISS and bought the debut record the day it came out along with the six that followed. "I think I qualify as a fan of KISS and I think I qualify to have an opinion as a fan", he said.
The "feud" apparently dates back to the 80's when Paul had taken shots at Twisted Sister and Dee made the statement at the Monsters Of Rock show at Castle Donnington in England that he gets ready for the show by avoiding Paul Stanley.
Throughout the show, Snider made points for his side of the debate on his feelings about why Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer should not be wearing Ace Frehley and Peter Criss' make up. He related it to The Beatles at one point.
"It was a unique band where you knew all four guys. Paul, John, Ringo, George. Ace, Paul, Peter, and Gene. It wasn't like that with Alice Cooper. It wasn't like that with Twisted Sister. It wasn't like that with most bands. It was unique where you knew the four guys. That to me is why it's disrespectful. It is other people portraying them" Snider said.
"From the standpoint of the annoyance of the guys wearing the make up, wearing the costumes, singing the songs, Tommy being from a tribute band; that whole thing, I just like it better when Eric (Carr) was the fox. I know they say that didn't work or whatever, but have your own character".
While admitting that he has not seen KISS live recently and has never seen them with Thayer and Singer in the make up, Snider listened as Mark Ciccini explained that Thayer, while wearing the make up, is in fact not impersonating Ace Frehley, not walking or moving like him even though Ace was Thayer's biggest influence as a guitar player growing up.
Snider responded "I've seen pictures, I know he was in a tribute band, he's very imitative, but if you tell me he's not doing his moves and such, I'll take your word".
"I AM an asshole, but I'm not gonna hold my position if somebody makes a point. You gotta give them a point" he continued.
The discussion turned to how many fans have come on board at different times in their career. For a lot of fans, this is the only KISS that they have ever known which Snider acknowledged and understood the point along with comparing it to the same with Twisted Sister.
When Michael Brandvold asked if Snider would like the Three Sides guys to help negotiate a potential peace treaty with Paul Stanley, Snider laughed and pointed out that they would need Stanley there to negotiate it. Then Snider went on to reidderate his point about why this became such an issue and why he needed to hit back with the letter he posted.
"I think I vocalized an opinion that some people were very upset about and Paul, he didn't attack, or question, or address my opinion, he attacked me as a personality, as a performer, as an entertainer, and my band who were just innocent. He called us a bunch of buffoons; he took some cheap shots at us. When I woke up and saw how it exploded; I'm not big on taking shit. If Paul Stanley would have put me in my place saying what you guys (Three Sides Of The Coin) said in his own way, I'd have nothing more to say other than 'point counterpoint, man. That was my opinion and you just put me in my place and told me your side of it and fair enough', but when he went after me and my band personally, I had to come back hard…real hard. To me I fear no band, I fear nobody. I sang Rock & Roll in front of Robert Plant and I basically did it just to shake my dick in his face"
And Snider's thoughts on his Twitter war with KISS fans?
"Do whatever you want, KISS Army. It's kind of fun, really. It's like shooting fish in a barrel for god sakes"

Tuesday September 22nd – Steve "Lips" Kudlow from AnvilREAD MORE
November 19th, 2014
"Big John" Murray, who appeared in two seasons of VH1's "Rock Of Love" with Poison front man Bret Michaels in 2008 and 2009, appeared on the November 18th edition of "Another FN Podcast With Izzy Presley" and made a startling confession. On May 28th, 2010, he nearly committed suicide.
While talking about the extent of his drug and alcohol use, he admitted this publicly for the first time ever:
It got so bad, I'll never forget this. Memorial Day weekend, May 28th, 2010 I was in Salt Lake City; nobody knows this, well maybe a few people know this.
I sat in a dark room about three in the morning and I put a pistol in my mouth. I cocked it and said, "OK dad". I sat there for a minute contemplating, contemplating.
I had seen and done it all. The "Rock Of Love" and everything was already done; THAT made it even worst, because then everybody wanted to party with ya, and I got into such a hole that I was just like, "I'm done. I'm done with this, I don't want it anymore".
I put a pistol in my mouth and I sat there and thought about it and said, "OK Dad, you've got 24 hours to prove to me or give me a sign, or something, to show my why I'm here".
I'll be damned that the next day I didn't meet the woman that is now my wife.
When asked what stopped him, he replied, "It was almost like there was something pushing on my hand to get it back out of my mouth."
He went on to say that veterans (which he is) are killing themselves at a rate of 22 a day, so he is not afraid to talk about what happened to him and share his story. "I have a story where I was a hair pull away of a trigger of ending it all to turning it around and living…I wouldn't change any of it for the world."
Throughout the interview, he talked about how the fame from the TV show combined with the drugs and alcohol turned him into someone he wasn't and how fame in itself is a drug. At one point he was up to a half gallon of Jim Beam a day.
Murray also told stories about his days as a professional wrester in ECW, working with bands like RATT, Cinderella, and Saliva, and doing cocaine with Kid Rock. He also ended the long argument about Bret Michaels hair. "It's the most expensive hair extensions you can buy".
Big John is currently residing in Cincinnati and spending time with his mother who is aging. He will be back on the Monsters Of Rock Cruise in 2015.

For Immediate Release
The KISS inspired Podcast, Three Sides Of The Coin welcomed Brett Bouchy, the managing partner of the LA KISS to discuss the team, the Arena Football League, "4th And Loud", working with Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, and how the NFL and Baltimore Ravens handled the Ray Rice situation.
Hosts Michael Brandvold, Tommy Sommers, and Mark Cicchini get into a discussion with Brett regarding Ray Rice. Bouchy said what surprised him was the response to the video when everybody knew what had already happened and the reason Rice was released was because the NFL and the Ravens were going to lose corporate partners. Then he went on to compare the Ray Rice situation to Ray Lewis and call out Steve Bisciotti, comparing him to Donald Sterling.
Bouchy said,"Two days prior [to the video being released of Rice knocking out his then fiancé], they were talking about what a great guy Ray Rice was. They were trying to rehabilitate his image and then you look at the Baltimore Ravens and what happened with Ray Lewis.
On January 31st, 2000, Ray Lewis was in [an] altercation which left 2 people dead. There was a brawl. He was indicted. He went to a trial. He pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and you know what? Back then there wasn't social media and it just kind of died and it went away and now there's a statue out front of the Raven's stadium.
It is appalling that nobody has really brought that up about the Ravens. Steve Bisciotti, who's the Raven's owner who put that statue up? You can put him in the same class as Donald Sterling, from my stand point, because what he did was disgusting because of the double standard that was created with Ray Lewis."
"We don't know what happend, but at the end of the day, we know something happened that he was a part of and how you can celebrate him like that, with a statue, is appauling to me" he continued.
Bouchy also discussed the LA KISS, their dismal season, the tv show "4th And Loud, and much, much more.

For Immediate Release
Jeff LaBar, Cinderella's guitar player joined Izzy Presley on Another FN' Podcast to talk about his new record "One For The Road", which is available now via iTunes, Amazon, RAT PAK records, and Best Buy. http://www.ratpakrecordsamerica.com/jefflabar
While talking about the record, LaBar tells stories about he and former Skid Row front man Sebastian Bach ended up rooming together at the Moscow Music Peace Festival because then Skids drummer, Rob Affuso booted Bach from their room.
He also talked about how Tom Keifer gave him a 1959 Sunburst Les Paul, the horrible deal that was offered to Cinderella by Gene Simmons before they were signed which basically said that Gene would get all of the publishing, own everything, and all songs would be written or co-written by Simmons.
Jeff then went on to reveal the story of how he was pulled over by the police in the 90's on his way to visit his son, who was about 3 at the time, while smoking crack and carrying a couple bundles of heroine. "The less Cinderella worked, the more heroine I did, and the more heroine I did, the more crack I smoked". After a court ordered stint in rehab, he was clean.
LaBar had been clean for years until his hip replacement surgery in 2011, when his doctors gave him pain killers…and more pain killers. Whenever he asked for more, they gave them to him. He did a stint in rehab and has been off them since. He called doctors and pain managers "legal drug dealers".
When asked if that is why he was able to get out and play 10 days after the surgery, LaBar replied "Absolutely". "I couldn't walk but I could play guitar".

"Fun Fact" – Self-explanatory…
It's that time again!
Time to learn something you didn't know – or, in the case of this month's topic, maybe time to be reminded of something you would rather forget…
You've heard it confirmed from the diabetes advocates.
You've heard it heralded from the Diet Coke and Splenda advocates**.
You've heard it [on repeat] from the Paleo advocates.
You've read the articles and watched the videos… but you still STILL aren't sure what to believe.
Well here's one more thought to chew on:
Current research being done at the University of California at San Francisco is showing that sugar – especially that found in soft drinks with other chemicals – actually impacts your body at the genome-level by shortening telomeres, which are the DNA components related to lifespan.
Shorter telomeres = shorter lifespan of cells = shorter lifespan of human made up of cells.
Interested in cutting back on sugar?
The very first step is to start reading food labels.
Or, you know, eating foods that don't come in plastic packaging like fruits and vegetables 🙂
Assuming you opt primarily for the 'read food label' option, be aware that Sugar is like a sneaky fugitive, it has over 50 aliases:
- barley malt
- beet sugar
- brown sugar
- buttered syrup
- cane-juice crystals
- cane sugar
- caramel
- carob syrup
- corn syrup
- corn syrup solids
- date sugar
- dextran
- dextrose
- diatase
- diastatic malt
- ethyl maltol
- fructose
- fruit juice
- fruit juice concentrate
- glucose
- glucose solids
- golden sugar
- golden syrup
- grape sugar
- high-fructose corn syrup
- honey
- invert sugar
- lactose
- malt syrup
- maltodextrin
- maltose
- mannitol
- molasses
- raw sugar
- refiner's syrup
- sorbitol
- sorghum syrup
- sucrose
- sugar
- turbinado sugar
- yellow sugar
**fake sugars are NOT less harmful; they are chemicals that your body sees as foreign, causing cellular mutations to try to adapt to them. BTW… cancer is just a fancy word for cellular mutations…
Stay Well,

The Confederate battle flag has long been a divisive emblem.
But a Roswell police sergeant says she didn't know that.
And because she didn't know that and flew the flag in her front yard for more than a year, she says, she was fired. Silvia Cotriss, a 20-year veteran of the department told the Atlanta Journal Constitution that she is appealing her July 14 firing by the Roswell Police Department. She was terminated after a complaint from a passerby who told the Roswell police chief that he'd seen the battle flag flying in her yard and her marked police vehicle parked in the driveway.
Cotriss doesn't deny she had the flag in her yard, but disputes the accusation that her city issued vehicle was in the driveway.
"If I knew it offended someone, my friends, my family, I wouldn't do it," Cotriss told the AJC. "We take an oath to help and protect people, so we can't have a private life that's really bad."
Cotriss was fired for conduct unbecoming an officer. The Roswell police chief has declined to comment on the case after the AJC obtained the investigation report.
How is it that the officer didn't know about the flag's long, contentious history, an emblem she said represents "Southern heritage?" And how did she decide to fly the flag in her yard in the first place? Even a prominent Atlanta First Amendment attorney has questions about the case and wonders if the episode might be a case of "over reach," given the tense racial climate in the country. Tension exacerbated by several high profile police shootings.
To read the full story of how Cotriss got the flag and what lies ahead for her, visit myajc.com.
