Spodland lives! (YouTube script)
Click here for the video version
Bygone PD game developers, The Hidden, are most fondly remembered for being the not-so-covert team behind the samurai duck warrior formerly known as Dong. Nevertheless, thanks to their close ties with Amiga Power they also managed to wangle two examples of their wares onto the cover disks of the best selling and most irreverent Amiga games magazine of the era. Delivered with AP9 was Puggles – a Q*bert clone – while puzzle game, Rome, featured on one of AP12's cover disks, and Top Secret – a not even thinly veiled Rodland rip-off – made its debut glued to AP17.
Having aligned themselves with the 'Norfolk Dumplings', Amiga Power lavished everything the quartet churned out with fawning praise, whether justified or not. Thus it came as no great surprise when Amiga Power launched a 'Design A Game' contest in August 1992 (AP16), that The Hidden were at the forefront of the promotion, hailed as shining examples of game-creating success stories.
Coder William Bell, graphicians Craig Howard and Simon Leggett, and musician Carl Jermy were tasked with adopting the winning reader's design concept and transforming it into a playable public domain title. The entire readership of the magazine – calculated to be 50,222 between July and December 1992 – would have the opportunity to play it via a cover-mounted floppy disk without any obligation to make an additional purchase. So even without the carrot on a stick of a prize, the stakes were pretty high. Hiked further by the icing on the cake of an Amiga 600 with a hard drive and a copy of AMOS.
See what I did there? I tricked you into thinking there was no prize and then yanked the sheet away from the magicians' podium, revealing a gleaming new computer, dazzling you with Photoshopped lens flare, to escalate the drama and anticipation. Anywaaaaaaay…
Zillions of imaginative entries were received before the 30th September 1992 deadline, and subsequently whittled down to a shortlist of just 11 in time to announce the results in AP21 (published in January 1993).
'Spodland' by Martin Fox of Banchory snatched the no. 1 spot. It was described as a "funny little arcade battle game, featuring lots of little cute fluffy creatures called 'Spods', who while away the long summer days in Spodland, er, spitting at each other. A very simple concept with lots of extra stuff bolted on to keep it interesting, and one of the few multi-player designs we got."
Development work commenced immediately, the first 'Diary of a Game' article documenting its progress appearing in Amiga Power's February 1993 issue. In most of the ensuing issues published each month we'd revisit the project for a catch-up. These appeared right up until December 1993, while AP expanded the series to include 'the making of' Sensible Software titles such as Cannon Fodder and Sensible Golf.
As Martin's initial proposal was so light on substantial detail, The Hidden had many gaps to plug in order to flesh out the skeleton of a game. One thing company founder and graphician, Craig Howard, tacked on was one of those plotty contraptions games are expected to possess. To quote him this entailed the "Spods going on a quest to become the Good King Wargle's Master of Spods. They all go through a series of knockout tournaments until there's only one left who then becomes King of the Spods."
Said tale was set to unravel courtesy of a benevolent old wizard crouched over a mystical desk, with illustrations conjured up using a crystal ball.
After experimenting with various console style, cutesy aesthetics, the decision was taken to instead veer off in an entirely different, highly ambitious direction. Craig's masterplan was to hire a third party to sculpt the Spod creatures from plasticine and digitise them using Claymation techniques. He expected the result to look something like Morph from the Hartbeat children's art tuition show hosted by the late Tony Hart. To ensure he was on the right track, Craig consulted the advice of fellow game developers, Dome Software, who gifted us with the gaming adaptation of Arnie's Last Action Hero. The less said about that the better. They weren't exactly thrilled with the prospect, leading Craig to doubt his commitment to the technique. Unsettled he continued.
3D FMV sequences, rotoscoping, and the conversion of HAM images to 32 colour digitised pictures of celebrities, all featured in the impromptu design brief. Reigning in the elaborate strategy, the game was to be a single screen affair, eliminating the need for resource-intensive smooth scrolling. Accordingly, sprites were to occupy a modest screen real estate of 32×32 pixels.
A number of sub-games were sketched out, including one comprised of spitting at celebs, and a gold-protecting diversion described as being similar to the 'crush a crab' machines found in arcades. I wonder if that's Norfolk's answer to 'whack a mole'.
Chief coder, William Bell, stretched between stitching together Simon and Craig's Spodland graphics and Carl's audio contribution, and bringing Donk to life, naturally struggled to keep up. Rather than abandon or postpone one project or the other, Craig drafted in the cavalry in the form of programmer Paul Douglas. The same Paul Douglas who would go on to become lead programmer of the first Tomb Raider title, and the gold edition that followed two years later in 1998.
As 1994 got underway, news of Spodland's evolution dried up overnight like a puddle in the Sahara, sidelined by the Sensi crew's insider game inception revelations. As far as I can establish its name was never uttered again. Well, not in any fashion that furthered our knowledge of its existence. Did it ever exist? Was it all a figment of our collective imagination? A protracted recurring dream maybe?
In February 1995 Adam Noble of Hove wrote in to AP's 'Do the Write Thing' section to ask "What happened to Spodland? Are The Hidden still working on it, or have they given up? It did seem an interesting game, so if they ever finish it, will it be on your coverdisk?
We got an answer… and were none the wiser. AP replied "Spodland? We really don't know, but will no doubt tell you if anything interesting ever happens." Pfft!
The Hidden didn't die in a horrific plane crash or retreat to an underground bunker to… erm, hide, they simply switched their focus to other projects… or rather continued working on the special edition, CD32 version of Donk. In fact, they spent so much time talking about Donk's headway during their 'Diary of a Spodland' articles it's really no wonder the ninja quacker took precedence.
Donk was to be The Hidden's one and only commercial release, seeing as the formula 1 arcade racer/sim the team previewed in 1994 never came to fruition. 'The Big End' (yes, really) was likely canned due to its poor financial potential in a dying market.
Elucidating the brainstorming process that lead to settling on the innuendo-rife title, Craig Howard, in issue 71 of The One magazine, published in September 1994, divulged…
"It took us ages to think of 'The Big End'. It's got a great double-meaning, and the boss really likes it. We're planning to do a rally game next, which was going to be called Muck 'n' Rubber; maybe we'll carry on with it at some point."
All that remains of TBE aka 'The Big Engine' is an extremely primitive preview, which can be found demonstrated on YouTube. Craig, who uploaded the video, reveals that the source has been lost, though he may consider trying to reverse engineer the compiled output if there's sufficient interest… and there has been. There's a 10-page thread on the subject over on the English Amiga Board. Sadly, all the effort made to salvage the arcade racer featuring basic management elements amounted to practically nothing.
In one diary entry, The Hidden disclosed that they were also working on a Smash TV clone called 'Monster Mash'. Like Spodland that never materialised. 'Smash TV: The Rip Off' had already been done very effectively by this stage so possibly that was what deterred its completion. Aside from any copyright issues they may have faced owing to their greater notoriety in comparison to your average bedroom-bound shareware developers.
Out of curiosity, I checked to see what became of the games blue-printed by the shortlisted runners up. Nothing apparently. I couldn't find a scrap of evidence that any of them emerged as fully-fledged playable games. I was especially heartbroken to discover that Matthew Thomas' 'Transformer-ish Robots Kick David Icke's Butt' never got off the starting blocks. A bizarre, random title you may assume until you stumble across the competition's list of entry stipulations. The most critical one being, "David Icke is not eligible to enter".
One was actually disqualified soon after being singled out for praise when it transpired that 'Battle Cars' was plagiarised from the Spectrum game of the same name developed by SLUG and published by Games Workshop in 1984.
Tim Genge – 'designer' of Battle Cars – went on to become a senior software architect at RealmSoft so it's safe to say he survived the controversy relatively unscathed.
Michael Brockbank who submitted a "cross between Captive and Laser Squad" known as Rebellion is now a Senior Project Manager working for Acclimation in Melbourne.
I found no trace of the remaining contestants. Nothing that would allow me to say with certainty that I'd identified the right people anyway. As for the triumphant, Martin Fox, he now works in the Digital Technology division for Baker Hughes in Aberdeen. I contacted him to see if he can shed any light on the enigmatic demise of his winning entry, however, he hasn't returned my messages so I'll have to file this one in my 'to be continued' drawer, along with all the other Games That Weren't.
Getting by on a technicality, Spodland did kind of break free from the sketchpad in the form of Andrew Crowe's homage to The Hidden's vision in the form of 'Spodland II Turbo'. It's described as "a fun multi-player spit-um-up". You can find a playthrough video on YouTube, and the game itself – released in 1997 – can be downloaded from Aminet.
How accurately it measures up to what The Hidden were working on four years earlier – commissioned by Amiga Power – is anyone's guess, yet Andrew appears to have studied the diaries diligently and done his best to implement the core elements discussed.
By way of the title screen, Andrew cites Martin as the inaugurator of Spodland, and therefore the inspiration behind his off-shoot. I hope that's of some consolation for The Hidden's shambolic vanishing act.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Game of Thrones" season seven.
Bran Stark re-entered "Game of Thrones" in its seventh season as a brand new character: the Three-Eyed Raven. As he used his powers of greensight and warging more through the season, fans began picking up on the importance of his character. Some people even got out of hand, believing Bran is actually the Night King.
INSIDER spoke with Isaac Hempstead Wright, who plays Bran Stark/the Three-Eyed Raven, to hear his thoughts on his fan theory and learn more about exactly how his powers work.
Kim Renfro: Were you following all the Bran memes and fan theories cropping up during the season?
Isaac Hempstead Wright: Oh, so many Bran memes. That's been fun. I've seen a great one where Meera comes to Bran and is like, "Hodor died for you, my brother died for you." And it's just got a WhatsApp [notification] showing it's been read but not replied to.
And there have been funny ones of people Photoshopping Bran into every sex scene in "Game of Thrones" going, "Oh yeah, I've seen that now."
Renfro: One fan theory that really spread was the guess that Bran is …
Hempstead Wright: Bran's the Night King! Yep. I mean it sounds fairly far-fetched but I would have said the same about the Hodor theory had I just read that on the internet. I mean I think it's gotten a little bit crazy because people are now putting pictures of me and the Night King together and going "Yep, that confirms it! They look identical!" And it's like, "Do I really look like an ancient ice zombie? Thanks guys."
Renfro: I think part of the reason why that theory has gotten so out of control is because it still feels like we don't know how Bran's powers work, and so people are making a lot of assumptions.
Hempstead Wright: Well let me clear a bit of that up. The way Bran's power works at the moment is that he's basically got a Kindle library of the whole history of the universe. He just hasn't read every book yet. And the old Three-Eyed Raven has sat in that tree for a thousand years and read through every piece of history and has accessed it all.
Bran has just done a quick whistlestop look through history and gotten the idea of things. But for now he needs people to tell him what they want him to see. Like Samwell Tarly saying, "Can you see this?" and Bran goes and accesses it and says, "Oh yep, that does happen." So it's not like Bran just has everything at his fingertips, he's still got to look it up in the dictionary.
Renfro: On a scale of one to the old Three-Eyed Raven, where is Bran now with his control over these powers?
Hempstead Wright: He's nowhere near there yet. The old Three-Eyed Raven was one of the wisest people in Westeros. He has literally been in that tree for thousands and thousands of years, learning all about the world and knowing history back to front.
Whereas for Bran, he's just thinking, "Whoa ok, there's a lot of cool stuff here but I can't get through it all yet." So if the old Three-Eyed Raven is a 10, I reckon Bran is a three or a four right now. He's got access to a lot of stuff, he just needs to be guided in the right direction.
Renfro: And it's not clear if he can see the future, right?
Hempstead Wright: Yeah I'm still not sure about that myself. I think Bran has more of an idea of destiny than actually predicting the future per se. He knows how things must end and how they must end for him or whatever, or what he must do, but I don't think he's got the future written down just yet. It's more of an idea of fate, as I understand it.
Renfro: One scene that came to mind when I was watching the finale was the moment earlier in season seven when Bran handed Arya the Valyrian steel dagger. If you rewatch that scene, it feels like Bran knows Arya is going to do something important with it.
Hempstead Wright: You know that's interesting because that is exactly … I was trying to play that. I'm really glad that came through. When Bran's looking at that dagger, I was thinking that he's feeling the Valyrian steel and thinking, "I can see where this dagger's going to end up. It's going to be used to kill Littlefinger."
Whether he knows that exactly or not, I think he looks at it and can see this that this dagger has a purpose, it has a fate, it has a destiny. And that destiny is to kill Littlefinger.
I don't know if Bran knows it there yet, but as he looks at it and touches it, it's becoming clear that this is important. And that's why he gives it to Arya so suddenly. He's thinking, "I don't know why, but you need this dagger."
Renfro: At the time I felt like something bigger was happening, and then when Arya pulled it out in the finale it was an "aha" moment for sure.
Hempstead Wright: He really is such a cool character to get to play. Especially [as an actor] seeing the scene play out,because you know what's going to happen anyways but to see it manifest itself on screen and actually get to use that in you character because you've got all the tricks, it's really fun.
Renfro: Do you think we'll we ever see the old Bran peek out again?
Hempstead Wright: Bran understands what is important and what isn't now, and I think he recognises that Bran Stark isn't really important. The Three-Eyed Raven is very important right now. So I think Bran is less focused on sentimentality. Yeah it would be nice to have a reunion with his sisters, but this is the end of the world and it needs to be sorted. So that's where Bran's at.
Renfro: Sam and Bran was an unexpected reunion, but a welcome one. I loved the humour you and John Bradley brought to that scene. Was it fun to shoot?
Hempstead Wright: [Laughing] That bit where he lifts up the scroll was almost too comedic. That was unbelievably hilarious.
It was a fun scene because it was great to have those two characters together again.
Those are really two of the characters in "Game of Thrones" who really use wits and knowledge as their power and force and strength. So it was really cool to have them together and especially having such a crucial part to play, getting to reveal who Jon Snow really is. Or rather Jon Targaryen. Or Aegon Targaryen.
Also, it was so hot on that set. It was unbearable. We both nearly passed out. Because we had artificial heaters, there was an actual fire on, and then you have 30 people packed into a small set. And so it was boiling hot, then we had heavy costumes because it's obviously winter now so we have much bigger, warmer costumes on. It was pretty unbearable in there. But a great scene.
Renfro: One last question. Was your sad goodbye moment the the last we'll see of Meera?
Hempstead Wright: I don't know. I mean this is the last season [coming up], and I think a lot of people are going to end up getting involved in it. When the White Walkers trudge their way down through Westeros there's going to be no stone left unturned. So I don't see why [that scene] would be the absolute demise of Meera Reed. But who knows.
"Game of Thrones" will return for its eighth and final season possibly as late as 2019. In the meantime, read our interview with Liam Cunningham (Ser Davos Seaworth) for possible season eight predictions.

How Does Arbitration Work?
How does arbitration work?
What is Arbitration?
Arbitration is the settlement of a dispute between two parties by a neutral third party. The neutral party is the arbitrator, and the parties with the disagreements agree to the arbitrator's ruling.
So….what is the process of arbitration?
Parties agree to abide by the independent arbitrator's ruling on specific issues, as they work toward a negotiated settlement. Attorneys for both parties present their arguments in a series of arbitration hearings and the arbitrator rules on the matter.
The decisions are not necessarily win or lose. Most times, the arbitrator finds middle ground for a proposed settlement. When both parties agree to the final settlement, the agreement is presented to a judge for final approval. The arbitrated settlement then becomes a legal court judgment.

As noted back on Feb 21, the EURUSD has broken down from its rising channel (white) and accelerated to the downside, breaking the Jan 4 1.2996 low and the psychologically important 1.30 level.
The intersection of the purple .618 and two white channels at 1.38 will have to wait (till my next visit across the Pond, no doubt.)
Losing the rising white channel hurts momentum quite a bit, but it's the drop back through the 75% line on the falling white channel that represents the bigger problem for the pair.
This channel dates all the way back to Dec 06. Reaching the top for the third time is still possible, of course, but it's that much harder now that the pair needs to retake the higher channel line and mount a fresh attack. Suppose it doesn't?
I've redrawn the falling white channel as red and will lower its top (for now) to reflect that possibility. I've also sketched in a more relaxed rising channel (light blue) that reflects potential channel support at current prices (the intersection of the falling red .75 and the rising light blue .25.)
I don't know whether the pair needs to retest the falling white midline or not. The bottom of the new light blue channel intersects with the red .75 in mid-March. Also there is the .25 of the very large rising purple channel, which provided a huge bounce in Jun 2010. It's easier to see in the LT chart below.
Here's the really big picture.
Several months ago, I noticed that the entire chart looks a bit like an expanded replay of the little dip way over to the left. Playing with channels, I got some interesting results.
The huge rising white channel seems to matter quite a bit. Note the support it offered from Aug 93 – Jan 97. When it broke, the pair fell precipitously to the midline, shedding .15 in about six months.
The midline offered support again through Feb 99, then completely fell out of bed (equities maxed out in Mar and Aug 2000.)
EURUSD spent 18 months in the penalty box confirming the channel bottom until finally breaking out early in 2002. It nearly reached the midline again two years later, and spent almost 4 additional years grinding higher – reaching 1.60 at a little over the 1.618 before zigzagging lower to its present level.
We'll circle back to these charts Tuesday and take a look at the analog's implications for the US dollar and equities.
To be continued…

GIA brings Alluring Careers in Gemmology to Jaipur
Create a satisfying role in the world of diamonds and gems
The gem and jewellery industry represents one of the fastest growing industries in India. Jaipur is India's second most important gems and jewellery exporting centre and exports Rs.11 billion worth of gems and jewellery. With an increasing number of entrepreneurs diversifying into diamonds and colourstone jewellery, the city's oldest industry is undergoing transition and is reinventing itself in a new avatar capable of meeting the challenges of global jewellery market. GIA (Gemological Institute of America), the world leader in gem and jewellery education, provides you with an overview of careers in gemmology.
Are you interested in the science of gems? Consider a career as a gemmologist, someone who specialises in identifying gemstones, such as diamonds, rubies, emeralds, sapphires and even pearls. The need to accurately identify stones is greater than everbecause of the increase in gemstone treatments and synthetics. Gemmologist credentials can open doors to diverse job opportunities like a buyer, trader or even a laboratory and research professional. Gemmological laboratories worldwide continuously seek new talent to accommodate the growing amount of gemstones submitted for identification and grading.
The need to accurately identify stones is greater than everbecause of the increase in gemstone treatments and synthetics.

Gemstone manufacturers, jewellers, jewellery retails chains, gemmological laboratories worldwide continuously seek trained new talent for their businesses. All of these careers demand an eye for detail and dedication to quality.While gemmology is the core study of gemstones; one can also pursue a specialization in diamond grading, gem identification, or gemmological research. Similarly, study of gemmology can also help you in most career options related to the gems and jewellery sector.
Following are the career prospects for a Gemmologist:
- Diamond and /or Coloured Stone Buyer
- Diamond Trader or Manufacturer
- Jewellery Retailer or Manufacturer
- Lab and Research Professional
- Sales and Marketing Professional

Buying a used car is often touted as a great way to save money. But that's only true if you don't get a lemon.
If you get the wrong used car, you can spend far, far more in repairs than you ever expected. Here are some ways to avoid a lemon – and really enjoy your great deal!
See if a Warranty is Available
Some used cars are sold "as is," but others have limited warranties. If a warranty is available, research it carefully so you know what's covered and what's not.
A warranty can give you a lot of peace of mind regarding future breakdowns and repairs. Of course, that's not something you can rely on alone – you need to take other steps as well.
Test Drive the Car – Quietly
When you test drive a car, you can get a good sense of how it rides. However, it's also important to listen. And that means being quiet during the drive.
Odd knocking? Squealing belts on starting? Rattling during driving? You need to hear it all.
So don't have the radio on during a test drive – although make sure it works – and don't talk too much during the trip. Just relax, feel, and listen.
Look the Car Over
Check the car inside and out. In the engine, things should be pretty grease-free with no sign of corrosion. Watch out for wet spots, which may indicate leaking, along with melted wires and blackened tubes, which may be a sign of a previous fire.
You should also look for obvious condition issues in the interior and exterior. Dents, scratches, rust, tears in upholstery, and missing knobs are all red flags. You may not think they are a big deal, but they are an indication that the car hasn't been cared for overall.
Have a Mechanic Check it Out
Finally, take the car to an independent mechanic to have it looked over. If you have a mechanic you know, that's a good start. If not, ask your mechanic to suggest someone in the area.
It's important not to have the seller "check it out" for you, or go to someone they suggest. Unfortunately, the world is a crazy place, and you can't trust everyone.
You may have to pay a fee for the look over, but it's a small price to pay for knowing whether you're buying a used car that's good or a lemon.
Buyer Beware – But You Can Get a Great Deal!
If you've done your due diligence, you can buy a used car with confidence. It's a great way to save money and have a reliable vehicle that will last several years!

Netanyahu asks Ethiopia to help secure release of Israeli captive in Gaza
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday asked Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn for help in securing the release of Avera Mengistu, an Israeli of Ethiopian origin who crossed into Gaza about two years ago and is believed to be held by Hamas.
"We always raise the issue of our citizens at various opportunities including here, of course," said Netanyahu, visiting as part of a four-country tour of Africa, after meeting with the prime minister.
Netanyahu promised a new era in Israeli-Ethiopian relations during his visit. "I am personally very proud to be the first Israeli Prime Minister to visit Ethiopia I think in over 30 years, we are not waiting even 30 years," he said. "We are committed to enhancing our partnership and our friendship in concrete ways. This is not just a one shot thing. It's not just statements. It is a plan for concrete cooperation in areas that are important for both our peoples."
On Friday, Netanyahu's push for his country to be granted "observer status" at the African Union gained Ethiopia's backing.
"Israel is working very hard in many African countries. There is no reason to deny this observer position to Israel," Desalegn said on Thursday.
The position of observer is granted to some non-African countries who wish to engage with the AU, follow proceedings and address its gatherings. Israel had been an observer at the AU's predecessor organization but its status was not renewed at the AU's founding in 2002.
Avraham Mengistu is one of two Israeli civilians whose suspected captivity in the Hamas terrorists-ruled Gaza Strip was revealed last year after a gag order was lifted.
The defense ministry confirmed that Mengistu, of Ethiopian descent, was missing, presumed held captive, since crossing into Gaza in September 2014.

Legal Abuse: When the Law isn't Your Ally
You did it. You left your abuser. But the abuse doesn't seem to be letting up. In fact, the abuse is getting worse, from a legal standpoint. You're being dragged through the legal system because your abuser is filing motion after motion, or contesting custody, or even because of a false protection order filed against you.
Abusers sometimes use the legal system to continue to abuse their victims, even after the victim leaves the relationship. Abusers do this to assert power and control over their victim in the only way they know how – by continuing with the threats, bullying tactics, intimidation, and legal maneuvers.
These legal maneuvers are considered legal abuse, a type of emotional abuse, and can spell a very real danger to victims.
What is Legal Abuse?
Legal abuse can take on several forms, but for the context of this blog, it refers to the abuser's wrongful use of the court system to file frivolous actions against their victims, which will inevitably drag out the already abusive situation.
They will file for joint custody (or in some cases, full custody). They will file protection orders, claiming that you are abusing them. If they have full custody, they will even file for more child support from you–anything to keep abusing you and to maintain that power and control over you.
If there are children involved, it can make the situation exponentially more excruciating for the victims. It can make the victims feel like the abuse will never end. Victims may even feel like they have to prove to the courts that they are the ones being abused. The abusers may even go so far as to seek full physical and legal custody of the children just to further harm the victim. If they win custody, they can sometimes keep the children as far away from the victim as possible, including geographically.
Even more disturbing is the notion that abusers will press the courts for joint custody, which is something that the abusers will use to their full advantage to continue the abuse. It can range from testing the boundaries of the parenting time the abuser gets to "forgetting" their scheduled parenting time and then wanting to make it up conveniently during the victim's parenting time. If the victim says no, the abuser claims parental alienation or that the victim is abusing them. Sometimes, the abusers will even state that they want more and more time, just so that it infringes upon the victim's time with the children.
As mentioned above, the abusers can also file frivolous actions against the victim. This can include false allegations of child abuse, filing a motion to delay a custody hearing, and purposely filing court applications incorrectly so that they'd have to delay a particular hearing. They might file paperwork at a different court in an attempt to overturn a previous decision. There have even been instances where the abuser will file motion after motion after motion to claim parental alienation (despite it being the abuser's fault they haven't seen the children in months or years).
Abusers can also threaten legal action, too. This is solely with the purpose of getting the victim to comply with their demands.
Despite escaping abusive situations, many survivors still feel fear when it comes to the legal system. This fear is very real and can exacerbate the situation because the abuser will use the courts to maintain contact with the victim.
This is why it is so vital for survivors to continue to speak out and speak the truth – in hopes that one day, the abusers will be seen for what they are. Become a domestic violence advocate in your town. Speak up. More people need to be aware that legal abuse exists, especially those in the legal system! The more that victims speak up, the more they will be believed and the abusers will be held accountable.

Ehrenfest dynamics¶
- Who
Ari, Christian
The implementation of Ehrenfest dynamics works and is now available in the development version of GPAW. The TODO list includes documentation, example scripts (high priority) and structural improvements in the code towards something reminiscent of the MD module in ASE. The latter requires a significant amount of work, and hence small improvements such as better automated output (.traj files, for example) will be done first.

Take A Stand
Exodus 23:2 – "Do not follow the crowd in doing wrong." (NIV 1978)
My Musing – We know what is right and what is wrong. God has put it in our heart and He speaks to us through His Holy Spirit. But it seems so hard to do what is right when everyone else is doing what is wrong. But morality is not a democracy. No matter how many may call a wrong right, it will not make it right.
My Advice – Be courageous. Do not be timid in taking your stand even when everyone else is against you. If you know in your heart it is right, God will give you the strength to stand against all odds. If God is for you, who can be against you?

Dacia Leslie | Reversing deportee stigma
Deportees (Things Change) is the product of the lyrical ingenuity and extraordinary talent of Mark Myrie, otherwise known as Buju Banton. It provides an interesting narrative of the bounded rational choices that some Jamaican migrants made which led to their involuntary removal from overseas jurisdictions and the challenges they face upon re-entering Jamaican society.
However, offenders who are wise enough to put into place plans to ensure their survival upon removal are also likely to be affected by deportee-related stigma. Stigmatisation can be extremely disabling, sometimes even resulting in the exclusion of persons who are talented.
For many involuntary removed migrants (IRMs), dusting off and starting from scratch, while not impossible, is extremely difficult because of various challenges, including:
- Having to overcome the trauma of the removal process, which at times can be lengthy;
- Insolvency resulting from the legal fees of seeking to appeal one's removal;
- Coming to terms with not having any familial ties to Jamaica, and the extended separation from one's family left behind;
- Not being able to lead productive lives because of mental disability and having limited access to appropriate treatment upon returning to Jamaican society;
- Not having sufficient or any knowledge of the 'facilitative return scheme' in order to make an informed decision before rejecting it or to simply apply and benefit from this kind of financial assistance when it is available; and
- Being excluded from gainful employment because of one's criminal record or the unexplained and significant gaps in one's curriculum vitae.
Additionally, homeless women and children requiring emergency shelter services will now have to seek refuge at the Open Arms Drop-in Centre located at the Bellevue Hospital premises, or the Open Heart Charitable Mission in Montego Bay because Hibiscus Jamaica Limited has closed its doors.
However, even places of refuge that seem to be surviving in an age of austerity can experience strain, resulting from overcrowding. The challenges that IRMs face at re-entry are, therefore, quite complex.
Moreover, it is easier to be identified as a 'criminal' than to prove oneself to be rehabilitated, which might explain why it is sometimes overlooked that not all IRMs are deportees. This is an important distinction Professor Bernard Headley, who is a retired criminologist, and co-founder of the National Organisation of Deported Migrants, underscores in his work.
Deportation is usually reserved for serious/violent foreign national offenders (FNOs), though both deportation and administrative removal are tools for immigration control. For example, a deportation order made in the UK under the Immigration Act of 1971 sanctions detention pending removal usually of FNOs over age 17 who have been convicted of an offence that is punishable with imprisonment or whose deportation is otherwise deemed by the secretary of state to be conducive to the public good.
FNOs may be liable to administrative removal, under Section 10 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999, usually for offences related to failure to comply with conditions of leave to enter or remain in the UK, the use of deception to obtain leave to remain or being the spouse, civil partner and/or child under age 18 of a FNO in respect of whom removal directions have been given.
Therefore, partners and children of FNOs may also be removed, even though they may not have been complicit. This suggests that upon returning to Jamaica, they, too, may fall victim to deportee-related stigma, even though they were not deported.
Let us be mindful of this distinction, and not be the ones to 'cast the first stone'. This is 'fi wi' Jamaica, and together we can bring transformation.

The Advantages of a Fixed Rate Home Equity Loan
A fixed rate home equity loan is one of the most popular lending instruments in the market today. While it is popular, it is not the only home equity option out there. In fact, you might be surprised how many options that you really have before you. Another popular type of loan is the variable rate variety. While it might be attractive at first, a fixed rate home equity loan is almost always better in the long run. Here are a few advantages of the fixed rate loan and why you should consider it for your home equity needs.
Easy Budget Planning
When you have a fixed interest rate, this also means that you will have a fixed monthly payment. When they start the loan, they will give you a certain amount of money over a certain period of time. For example, they will give you the money and then you have 10 years to pay it back with interest. This means that you will have 120 equal monthly payments to pay off the balance with interest.
When you know how much you are going to be spending every month for the next 10 years, it makes your life a lot easier. You can budget into the future and know exactly when you can afford things. For example, let's say that you want to buy a new car after a few years of having your home equity loan. Your new car payment is going to be $400 per month. With a fixed rate home equity loan, you know exactly how much your bills are going to be next month. Therefore, you know exactly how much you can afford to spend on a new car. If you have a variable rate home equity loan, there are really no guarantees. Your rate can go up depending on the prime interest rate. Therefore, you might be able to afford the car for the first year and then your home equity loan payment goes up the next. It makes life a lot less predictable when your interest rate is variable.
Overall Savings
While you might think that you are saving money with a variable rate home equity loan on the front end, it will almost always catch up to you. Most of the time, you will have the home equity loan for at least 10 years. During a time span that long, you will almost always experience some fluctuations in the interest rate. Sometimes, the interest rate goes up much higher than it was when you got the loan. This means that your payment could potentially double in a short period of time. You will then be paying much more interest than you would have with a fixed rate home equity loan. The savings that you thought you were getting are long gone.

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Greenhouse gas doesn't just stay in the air. A lot of it ends up in oceans, raising acid levels in the water.
Alex DeMetrick reports, it's now doing the same thing in the Chesapeake Bay.
Oyster season is underway in the Chesapeake, and the past few years the harvest has been improving.
But aboard this University of Delaware research boat, the catch is water, and it's turning up increasing amounts of carbonic acid.
It's being found in water 30 to 50 feet deep bay-wide, where it's 10 times more acidic than it was a decade ago.
"As carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in water, it lowers the pH, or raises the acid level, carbonic acid in particular, in the bay," says Doug Myers, of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.
In the oceans increased acidity has been killing off the tiny animals that make coral reefs.
"It can be stressful for a lot of organisms," says Myers.
In the bay, increased acid levels would be hardest on clams and oysters. Especially oyster larvae.
"You could lose a whole crop of oysters as they're going through that transition," according to Myers.
That could mean a setback for oyster recovery efforts, where spat on old shells are used to build up oyster reefs.
Acid levels aren't high enough yet to cause an impact, and it's the last thing an industry working to recover needs.
Acidity levels in the bay are also a byproduct of algae blooms and dead zones, destroying oxygen and changing the water's chemistry.

the frontrunner
Lots of games left, of course, but Fred Lewis, the former Stone County High and Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College star, may have moved to the front of the pack in the competition for the second Cool Papa Bell Award. Lewis, found wanting in San Francisco after a poor 2009 season, has blossomed as Toronto's leadoff batter. He's hitting .275 with 31 doubles and eight home runs for a team that might yet make a playoff run. Hot on Lewis' heels is Texas lefty Cliff Lee, the Meridian CC product who is 10-6 with a 2.77 ERA for the playoff-bound Rangers. Edge goes to the position player.
P.S. Former Jackson General Billy Wagner has tied former JaxMet Jesse Orosco for No. 1 on the all-time strikeouts list for lefty relievers with 1,169. … If the New York Mets make a managerial change in the off-season — a pretty safe bet — a strong candidate might be former Jackson Mets infielder Wally Backman. The feisty Backman is currently managing the Mets' short-season Class A Brooklyn club. He'd be a good fit in Queens. … Former Mississippi State standout Mitch Moreland is showing some staying power with the Rangers. The lefty-hitting first baseman belted his third home run Friday night and is batting .292 since Texas called him up a couple weeks back; he might make the postseason roster.

"Jam Session" is a monthly service project that involves making sack lunches for our homeless neighbors. This ministry began many years ago when some of our retired members were looking for a practical way to show the love of Jesus to our community. They found that Casa Maria, a soup kitchen in downtown Tucson, needed volunteers to pack lunches for the large number of homeless people it serves. When they found out that the lunches could be made offsite and brought to Casa Maria, they decided that was a great opportunity to get involved. Our members decided to meet once a month to pack as many lunches as they could. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches would not require refrigeration, so that became the "main course" for the bags. It didn't take long to discover that jam spreads easier than jelly... so the "Jam Session" was born.
Over the years, some of the Jam Session volunteers became legendary. Bill C. was the banana stem cutter, as well as the most precise peanut butter spreader in the group. Dorothy K. was the most senior Jammer. Sometimes we have had children and teens helping; sometimes the youngest person still quaifies for a senior discount. But whether in the best of health, or using walkers, wheelchairs, or canes, Jam Session volunteers continue to prove that while not everyone can do everything, everyone can do something. And being retired from work doesn't mean retirement from Christian service.
These days, Jammers meet on the Friday-before-the-second-Saturday of each month, in a volunteer's home. (This is because the lunches are always taken to Casa Maria on the second Saturday. Whether the Friday prior to that day is the first or second Friday of the month depends on the month.) Forming as assembly line, the volunteers place a cookie, a fruit cup, and two wrapped sandwiches in each paper bag. (Fruit cups replaced fresh bananas several years ago because it was too hard to keep the bananas from getting overripe before the lunches were delivered.) Five paper bags are packed into a plastic grocery bag, and the lunches are ready to go.
It is our prayer that the food will nourish the bodies as well as the spirits of those who receive it.

Sony Expects Strong Holiday Sales, More "Sony Shops"
Sony executives yesterday said they expect a solid holiday season that will be driven by sales of high-definition electronics.
"We're anticipating an extremely strong holiday season," Stan Glasgow, president and COO of Sony Electronics said, adding that many dealers are re-forecasting holiday sales figures that are better than originally predicted.
A bulk of the sales will be fueled by the company's recently launched HDNA marketing campaign, which focuses on high-definition electronics sold as a full solution, Glasgow said. The campaign follows a similar one the company launched earlier this year on digital imaging solutions, which Glasgow attributed to growing the segment more than 35 percent during the second quarter. "That's something we didn't expect," he said.

When you read these actions you could view some lives you already understand, possibly you will not know any type of, but regardless you will certainly should keep an open mind as well as keep in mind that EVERY IDEA remains in there considering that it has actually been attempted and checked ONE HUNDRED's of times and also FUNCTIONS! Also remember you will be getting out of your comfort zone, if so. great! The further you receive from your comfort area the even more cash you could potentially make!
What do I suggest by 'play the area'. Well for instance, if you wish to do well in your lovemaking then you likely have to want to play the industry. This could include attempting to satisfy bunches of potential suitors, taking place great deals of days (excellent as well as bad ones!), as well as filter through several frogs up until you fulfill your princess or prince. Presume exactly what? Obtaining a lot buying automobiles is practically no various! Do not simply ring/look at 1 or 2 automobiles and also when you have your low deals knocked back as well as believe "Oh gee, well I had a go as well as it really did not function, I guess it's just difficult" THAT 'S LOSER TALK! The reason individuals succeed is by doing just what others won't or don't. So do not check 5 cars, ask regarding 50 of them and also determine the distinction! (While you go to it, why not go ask 50 attractive girls/guys for their contact number as well as I bet you'll have some success in that area too!).

Today, Canton is comprised of several residential neighborhoods as well as two distinct communities:
Canton was first created by an act in the Michigan Territorial Legislature in March 1834. It was formed using portions of Plymouth Township.

Today, the 36-square-mile community offers purchasers looking for homes for sale in Canton plenty of job stability, thanks to its diversified employment base.
