I know I wasn't just lucky to have this opportunity. I was blessed. I was especially blessed when 4 weeks turned into 5, which eventually turned into 7. Six of these weeks were in lovely Provo, UT, while I got to spend one week in Logan. Go Aggies:)
Every week was sooo different - different co-counselors, kids, ages, session directors....
I loved (almost) all of it!
I have a testimony of EFY. Week after week participants would say it was the best week they had, and many had never felt the spirit so strong. EFY isn't a magical place, it's the things we do and environment at EFY that make it so special. I love when kids see that by simply reading their scriptures and praying every day, they can have the spirit be with them. I love to see kids who are initially hesitant or rebellious, feel something as the week goes on and have a visible change take place in them. EFY should be the starting point of building good habits. No one can live in the happy little bubble of chuch music-classes-game night-pizza-and devotionals forever, but the testimonies that are strengthened during the week are what changes lives for the better. Teenagers come from all over (one week I had a girl from the Bahamas, and she was pretty much a celebrity), and are amazed the power of a group of teenagers have when living the gospel, and see that the gospel brings more happiness than anything else. I love to see boys who will go on missions in a year or two commit to being missionaries, and begin to take the gospel seriously.
EFY is great. I love the dances. I love the awkwardness of the first day. I love friday's pink wrap (Not). I love musical program (my last week I was one of the people in charge of it...talk about pee my pants). I love the EFY music. I love having time every day to read my scriptures. I love teaching every single day. I love meeting the funniest kids. I love variety show. I love the counselors. I love watching 14 year olds flirt. I love the craziness of EFY in provo with 4 sessions all at the same time. I love cannon center food:). I love how you can love kids you hardly know like they are your own children for the week (well a real parent might not agree...). I love it all.

Have you heard the phrase "grafted in" as it pertains to spiritual matters? If you have read Romans chapter 11, or a sermon on Romans 11, you have probably heard the term "grafted in". But what does it mean? What does it mean to be grafted in to the fold of God?
To begin with, the Jewish nation of Israel were God's initial chosen people. They were the people that God had chosen to delight in, take pleasure in, and give the opportunity to have a relationship with Him as He provided for them in various ways. This was a big thing. God had given Israel the Law (Torah) which was His instruction to them about His ways. This allowed them to act in obedience to God and have a relationship with the God of the universe, which in itself was a tremendous grace. They were given the Promised Land that God had promised to Abraham years before the possessed it. God was everything that Israel needed and He was their provision in various ways. They were indeed His people.
Yet, what we see in Romans 11 and in the whole of the New Testament is a different era. We see God opening up salvation not only to the Jews but to the Gentiles also. As the Jews rejected Christ and began a hardening of their hearts, God, within His infinite wisdom and great mercy, has opened up salvation to Gentiles. This is good news for those that are not Jewish as it gives people like me the opportunity to know the God of the universe through Christ. In this salvation, Gentiles are now "grafted in" to the family of God. What does that mean? It means that they are brought into Israel, the chosen people, and the new spiritual Israel is filled with all who trust in Christ both Jew and Gentile. This is a tremendous grace and mercy to all Gentiles and Jews alike as there is a separation between us and God. Gentiles were brought into a family that they did not rightly belong to and God has extended His mercy upon them and given them every benefit that a member of God's family has. He has granted them the grace to have a relationship with Him, He has granted them the grace to know Him, He has granted the them the grace to have communion with Him, He has grafted them into His lineage despite the fact that they were not rightful heirs of His kingdom, yet through the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, they are now rightful heirs if they place their faith and trust in Him.
What a beautiful grace. God has given the opportunity to you and I to know Him. Salvation is not about you and I having fire insurance that promises us an eternity not spent in hell. Salvation is about knowing God through Jesus Christ. We should live everyday of our lives basking in the grace of God as we have been grafted into the family because of Christ's righteousness and not our own.
Soli Deo Gloria (God's Glory Alone).

In 2015–16, the Queensland Parliament Legal Affairs and Safety Committee held a Human Rights Inquiry into whether Queensland should have a Human Rights Act.
As part of its inquiry, the Parliamentary Committee held public hearings in June 2016. The transcript of proceedings includes statements by the Queensland Mental Health Commissioner who attended the hearings.
The Parliamentary Committee tabled its report Inquiry into a possible Human Rights Act for Queensland on 30 June 2016.
Our submission on human rights
The Commission's submission to the Parliamentary Committee, A Human Rights Act for Queensland focused on the need to better protect the human rights of all Queenslanders, and particularly people living with mental illness and problematic alcohol and other drug use.
The Commission's submission supported a Human Rights Act for Queensland that:
- better enables people to enforce their human rights
- includes economic, social and cultural rights, such as adequate healthcare, education and housing
- applies to not only government agencies, but also organisations funded by Government to deliver services.
The submission recognised that legislation sets the ground work for protecting human rights, but more is needed to change cultures and entrenched views which result in discrimination, unconscious bias and stigma.
This requires investment in educational resources to support understanding of rights among individuals, parliamentarians, the legal sector and government agencies and to promote a human rights culture in Queensland.
The Commission further recommended that people with lived experience are involved in the design of any human rights legislation. We advised that safe language guidelines and patient care protocols be applied in the drafting of the legislation and associated policy documentation to ensure appropriate terminology and safe, non-stigmatising wording is used.
Discussion paper
The Commission initially developed a Background Paper on A Human Rights Act for Queensland canvassing the views of people who experience mental illness, and the implications and opportunities of a Human Rights Act.
As part of our research, we invited two people with lived experience of mental illness to share their views and experiences of human rights and healing.

Those aching joints could be in your genes
A common complaint, back pain is one of the many side effects of aging. Over three quarters of the population experience it at some point, and until now, researchers have had little conclusive proof of the causes and mechanisms of the pain.
New research from Prof. Gregory Livshits of Tel Aviv University's Department of Anatomy and Anthropology at the Sackler Faculty of Medicine, however, shows that genetics are a major contributing factor to this pain — and common back pain complaints may have different genetic origins. The results of their study can help identify the different mechanisms involved in back pain and lead to more effective treatment options.
The research, pursued in collaboration with a team of scientists at Kings College, London led by Prof. Tim Spector and Dr. Fran Williams, was recently published in the journal Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases.
Identical twins, identical pains
Our two-footed anatomy causes strain and subsequent deterioration of the muscular skeletal system, as do factors such as weight or physical exertion. The team's research shows genetics play a key role in lower back pain and the deterioration of intervertebral discs of the spine as well. More surprisingly, Prof. Livshits says, lower back pain and disk degeneration do not always overlap, and are caused by different genetic factors.
Preliminary testing done in Israel more than 10 years ago gave scientists their first clue to the connection between genetics and back pain. A study conducted on Arabic families revealed recurring patterns of lower back pain in family members — many relatives of the same family would develop the same symptoms, even at a young age.
To further test these observations, Prof. Livshits and his team looked at a sample twin population of 2,500 individuals, comprising both identical and non-identical female twins. They tested for several potential risk factors, such as smoking, weight, physical work, vertebral disc degeneration disease as well as genetic predisposition. Researchers relied on MRIs of the spine; radiographic assessment of the body lean, fat and bone mass; and blood samples for DNA extraction, genotyping and testing blood for potential biomarkers associated with joint disease.
In non-identical twins who share half of their genetic make-up, patients were almost three times more likely to suffer from back pain if their twin did so as well. In identical twins, who share all of their genes, the patient was six times more likely to have joint disease if their twin experienced the same joint disease.
Refining genetic testing
Although the degeneration of intervertebral discs is often associated with lower back pain, researchers discovered that the two conditions could exist independently, and are also caused by different genetic factors. "We have genetic factors that affect the rate and extent of the degeneration of our discs. In fact, the genetic factors are second only to age," explains Prof. Livshits. "On the other side, we have different genetic factors that independently cause lower back pain. These are mechanisms not involved in spine degeneration."
This discovery could revolutionize the study and treatment of back pain, says Prof. Livshits. More research on the genetic causes of back pain is still required, he notes, and a broader genome search of affected and non-affected individuals is necessary.
The next step for Prof. Livshits will be an international effort that spans university labs in a number of countries, creating a consortium of research groups. Together, they will be able to combine their efforts to analyze large sets of data in the quest to solve the mysteries associated with this common complaint.

Super-investor Jim Rogers, who began buying Chinese stocks more than 20 years ago, now says the market has turned frothy.
"I haven't bought equities since I last bought Chinese shares in October," Rogers told Bloomberg.
The market "has gotten ahead of itself," he says.
The Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index has soared 80 percent so far this year, as the economy rebounded to annualized growth of 7.9 percent in the second quarter.
But the weakness of China's export markets, particularly the U.S. and Europe, will weigh on China's economy, Rogers says.
In addition, "you're going to see inflationary pressures in China," he says. "They've printed a lot of money. They've spent a lot of money."
To be sure, Rogers doesn't advocate dumping Chinese stocks. "Selling China in 2009 would be like selling America in 1909," he says.
But "Would I buy them now, absolutely not. … I'm not jumping into a moving bus."
Rogers reiterated his criticism of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. "He should have resigned," Rogers says.
"That man's been wrong for 300 weeks going on 400 weeks. It's mind boggling to me. ... They have printed so much money, and they have taken on such staggering amounts of debt. Nobody really knows how much debt."
As for Chinese stocks, not everyone sees them as overvalued.
"Resource-related companies are expected to attract more funds as the global economy has shown some signs of recovery," Zhou Lin, an analyst at Huatai Securities, told Dow Jones.

On the surface, this week's all-new episode of Arrow teases Bronze Tiger's (Michael Jai White) plan to sell Malcolm's (John Barrowman) earthquake machine (the one that decimated The Glades at the end of Season 1) to the highest bidder. But the installment, titled "Tremors" and written by executive producer Marc Guggenheim and co-executive producer Drew Z. Greenberg, also slyly sets up seismic events that threaten to shake up the foundations that The CW superhero series is firmly built upon.
But first, to recap: Roy (Colton Haynes) been injected with a mysterious serum called Mirakuru (roughly translated as "The Miracle") that kills 99.9% of dosed subjects. But, if a subject actually survives the transition, they're imbued with superhuman abilities: strength, endurance, durability, reflexes, healing, and speed. In short, they're superhero ready.
However, Oliver (Stephen Amell) learned the hard way that Mirakuru channels itself through rage, so he's begrudgingly taken Roy under his wing after watching his former ally, Slade Wilson (Manu Bennett), succumb to the serum's side effects. "Through Roy's training, Oliver has a chance to revisit some old sins," Guggenheim told BuzzFeed, not just referencing Slade, but also The Huntress (Jessica De Gouw).
"He failed miserably to be a guide for The Huntress, so now he's setting out to do this right," Guggenheim added. "We always want to be consistent with what we've already established for any character that has a superhero destiny. If it was as easy as putting on a costume and fighting crime, then anyone could do it. It took five years of hell to turn Oliver into The Arrow. It took five years of hell, and The League of Assassins, to turn Sara [Caity Lotz] into The Black Canary. It's not that Roy couldn't be a member of Team Arrow without the Mirakuru; it's that he couldn't do these things without going through the crucible the Mirakuru establishes."
But don't expect Roy to enter Oliver's Arrow lair — or take a crack at his salmon ladder — just yet. "To preserve his secret identity, Oliver is talking around a lot of things because the more information he gives Roy, the closer Roy gets to figuring out that identity," Guggeinheim revealed. "That's why the training doesn't take place in the lair. We can't bring Roy in without revealing Oliver's identity since it's right beneath his club. So, it'll be a while before we get Roy in there. Or on the salmon ladder."
Thankfully, that doesn't mean a partnership between Roy and Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) — or, Rolicity, as enthusiastic fans have anticipatorily dubbed them — is entirely off the table for Season 2.
"The main drive for us as storytellers is to keep things new and fresh and exciting, so watching Oliver, Diggle [David Ramsey], and Felicity interact with these new people coming into their world is fun," Greenberg said. "I think one of the great joys of this season has been Felicity and Sara getting to know each other. It's opened up new aspects of each character, and I love that we've been able to do that."
And the writers are mindful of how much truly hinges on Oliver maintaining his secret identity. "We address that head on in the episode when someone asks Oliver how many people know his real identity and he replies, 'Too many,'" Guggeinheim noted before Greenberg added, "We always have to be cognizant of keeping Oliver's secret identity. We've limited it to the people who need to know for the time being."
Haynes, however, is holding out hope that becoming Oliver's mentee will mean that Roy is finally integrated into Arrow's overall mythology. "I'm not excited about the possibility of giving up McDonald's, but I'm excited to potentially work with more of the cast and to hopefully become a superhero," the actor told BuzzFeed.
Which begs the question: What is the secret to successfully punching a bowl of water (a task Oliver asks of Roy in BuzzFeed's exclusive clip)? "You gotta close your eyes, take a deep breathe, and imagine you're in a rap video," Haynes revealed. Watch below!

(BARTOW, Fla. – January 31, 2015) – Thomas A. Hammer, AIA, Principal at Rowe Architects Incorporated was invited to give a presentation at the old Polk County Courthouse on Saturday. Hammer was the primary architect during the restoration of the courthouse.
His presentation, "Promoting Preservation: National Register of Historic Places, Historic Districts, and Heritage Tourism Marketing" was the third and final presentation in a series. It was also the conclusion of Preservation Celebration Month at the Polk County History Center, formerly called Polk County Courthouse.
Introductions and a presentation on "Heritage Tourism" were by Historic Preservation Manager Myrtice Young. There were more than twenty visitors in attendance, including Polk County Commissioners John Hall and Edwin Smith.
Hammer discussed the National Register of Historic Places, which is a list of districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects significant in American history, architecture, archeology, engineering, and culture. He went into detail about what a listing means, what it does not mean, listing requirements, as well as listing process.
After Hammer's presentation, there was a tour of the beautifully restored building. Hammer and Commissioner Hall guided the tour together and discussed the history and the restoration of the courthouse. Hall was an employee of the county and held various roles during the restoration.
The courthouse was originally built in 1908. The restoration took place from 1988 to 1996 in four phases: the restoration of the exterior of the building, installation of the HVAC system, restoration of the genealogical library, and restoration of the history museum. The old courthouse is now called the Polk County History Center. It is comprised of both the Historical Museum and Genealogical Library, with free admission to the public.
Hammer was very impressed by how well the building has been maintained. "It looks as good today as it did when we finished the restoration 20 years ago. For John and I, it was a walk down memory lane." Myrtice Young was so thoroughly impressed by Hammer's presentation that she invited to come back to present next year.
Hammer participated in a Lunch and Learn at the History Center a week earlier, "Preserving Polk Pride: Researching and Promoting Polk County's Historic Sites Preservation Celebration Panel". It was a discussion on restoration projects in Polk and Osceola counties and included a distinguished panel of speakers from both counties. Hammer discussed the history and the process of restoring the courthouse in collaboration with Mark Donald, Facilities Project Engineer at Polk County BoCC, PE. Donald was the director of facilities during the course of the project.
These events were also featured in the recent issue of Art-i-facts magazine, a publication of the Polk Arts Alliance.

NRCA's Conservation Ambassador Program is a unique opportunity for high school students to learn about natural resources science and conservation biology from UConn professors, graduate students, and each other. This video was shown to parents, students, and staff at the end of the 2014 field experience.
We realize that each student has a story and that this field experience has an unique effect on everyone involved. We hope that this short video gives you the sense of the grand narrative of the Conservation Ambassador Program.
The mission of CAP is to engage high school students from diverse of backgrounds in natural resource science and to provide transformative learning opportunities for students to interact physically, intellectually, and creatively with local environments-- all while contributing to environmental solutions in their own communities.
Expertise and resources available at UConn and the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment will support this mission.
During the one-week training experience, students will stay in college dorms and eat in the dining halls. With the 2,100 acre UConn Forest as a classroom, students will explore various components of the natural environment, as well as nearby lakes, streams, and wetlands.
With help from local conservation leaders, students will apply new knowledge and tools to complete a conservation project in their local community and obtain credit through their high school. Students will present their work at the annual Connecticut Conference on Natural Resources in March.
NRCA's CAP was awarded the 2016 Maria Pirie Environmental Education Program Award by the New England Environmental Education Alliance.

NORWAY.—The records of Norway are preserved at Christiania, and include a collection of papers of Christian II., king of Denmark. For the contents of the collection, see Diplomatarium Norvegicum, by Lange and Unger (1849–1891); and Norske Rigsregistranter tildeels i uddrag, dealing with the 16th and 17th centuries. PoRTuGAL.—Portuguese royal records are in the monastery of Sao Bento at Lisbon. The collection suffered much during the earthquake of 1755. It includes the registers of the Chancery since the 13th century, and a large number of documents subsidiary to them. In addition to this repository there are collections at the various ministries; from the records of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, Borges de Castro, and afterwards Judice Biker, published their Collec4ao dos Tratados . entre a Corona de Portugal e as mais potentias. There are three volumes of transcripts from Portuguese records in the English Public Record Office. RusslA.—The records of the Russian government are distributed in various repositories in Moscow and St Petersburg. At the former are preserved the records of the foreign relations of Russia down to 18ot ; permission to use them can be obtained from the Minister for Foreign Affairs: there are no printed lists, but many in manuscript. At Moscow are also preserved the records of the Ministry of Justice. In vol. xliv. of the Revue historique (189o) there is an article by J.-J. Chemko and L.-M. Balffol on Les Archives de l'empire russe a Moscow. The records of government offices at St Petersburg are not open to students. There are minor repositories at various provincial capitals, and the records of the Grand Duchy of Finland are at Helsingfors. There are three volumes of transcripts from Russian records at the English Public Record Office.End of Article: NORWAY

So do you love to see the annihilating environment in the Battlefield 4? I bet you do.
The video is brought to you by popular YouTube commentator Kpopp shedding light on the elements surrounding the destruction aspect in Battlefield 4.
The biggest highlight of the video in discussion is the manner in which things get devastated. The destruction and damage caused by those firearms create an unimaginable warfare experience.
We do realize that graphics of a particular game don't make much of the whole game which is factual in a way but it can certainly alter the whole gameplay experience.
Hiding perfectly in an area whereas enemies showering you with bullets and eventually using explosives to lure you out of your hiding pit and forcing you to change your position before the whole building collapses on your head is something that adds a lot of flavor into the game.
The whole multiplayer environment of Battlefield 4 is also one of its kind. It really gives you the feel like you are really a part of an on-going warfare. The game takes advantage of its greyish-brown hue signaling towards the excessive amount of dust and waste in the atmosphere as a result of those massive destruction of buildings and aircrafts.
It is another advantage that Battlefield 4 palyers have over Call of Duty: Ghosts fans which is (more or less) yet again taking a stall, stifled and iterated approach when it comes to environment.
However, fans should keep in mind that all of this information does not necessarily hold true for console ports as well whether it be current-gen or next-gen. There is no doubt that both Xbox One and Playstation 4 have taken a leap in terms of hardware and technology, many of the reviewers especially TrustedReviews say that the demo we saw was being played on a PC using an AMD Radeon HD 7990.
Needless to say that the E3 demo for many games for Xbox One were also being played on Windows 7 based PCs having Nvidia GTX GPUs.
So we can be sure about one thing that Battlefield 4 is going to look wondrous on PCs. As for current-gen and next-gen consoles, we shall have to wait and see!
Battlefield is expected to release on October, 2013 for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Microsoft Windows. The game is also announced for next-gen consoles but no confirmed release date has been provided.

Samsung 850 EVO Shown
Samsung 850 EVO
Published: 9th September 2014 | Source: hw-journal |
Samsung 850 EVO Shown
In a presentation yesterday, Samsung confirmed that they were making a TLC version of its industry leading 3D V-NAND. The flash has the same 32-layer structure their MLC V-NAND, used in their 850 Pro, just with one more bit crammed into each cell.
What Samsung also announced was that they are also making a variant of their flagship 850 Pro SSD using this TLC Stacked NAND in order to provide the market with a similarly performing drive using this cheaper, but still very powerful TLC V-NAND.
The tow images below are courtesy of hw.journal.de, they show what we assume to be the production case of the 850 EVO SSD.
For those who do not know the difference between TLC and MLC NAND, let me explain;
TLC (triple-level cell) flash is a higher density flash which stores 3 bits of information in each cell, which is 1 bit more than the MLC (multi-level cell) flash used in most of Samsungs other SSDs. This gain in storage density is offset by lower write speeds and durability of each individual cell, but these problems can be offset by giving the flash the 3D treatment as vNAND will simultaneously increase the write speeds and the durability of the flash. This makes a 3D, or vertical, TLC Flash highly desirable as its traditional disadvantages are offset by this new technology.
What does this mean to us? It means that Samsung can cram more storage space onto less flash chips without lower write speeds and less durability, which means that they can produce a fast reliable SSD for cheaper than their current 850 Pro and perhaps release a, they can produce the 850 EVO SSD based on TLC vNAND for a reduced price compared to the 850 Pro.
Samsung now have everything they need to not just make the most advanced SSDs on the market, but also potentially the cheapest on the market. So we look forward to seeing what Samsung have in store for us when they eventually launch the 850 EVO SSD.
If you want to discuss the difference in Flash types, or just talk about Samsungs current SSD offerings, please go the the OC3D Forums.

Kinda sad they only just announced this now. Might explain why the 840 evos are so well priced right now. I'm running just 840 evos in my rig currently. Hopefully the 850s will be more reliable now as a few people have had issues I think.Quote

Mark His Words
Here's a new favorite. Also from January 17th, 2006. That's just 20 days ago:
"Just mark my words," Industry Minister David Emerson told reporters travelling with Martin yesterday in Vancouver. "If they get elected, they are going to begin a massive review of programs and a massive set of cuts to government programs.
"And people are going to say, `We didn't ask for this. Mr. Harper didn't say this is what he was going to do.'"
People are going to say... Oh, again with the irony, this guy is killing me. The really galling aspect of it all? That had Emerson run as a Conservative in Kingsway, he would have had ABSOLUTELY NO CHANCE of winning. That had the Liberals won, he would have remained in their cabinet. Talk about hedging your bets.
I didn't know you could run on the "Independent Cabinet Minister for Hire" ticket.

Just an explanatory update today – i'm currently working the story over in OneNote with all my notes to get a clear and chronological story. after that i'll be able to tailor the levels to exactly suit the flow of the story and know where i can bend the floor plan rules.
After some thought, i'm actually going to keep the simple and cartoonish styling as it reflects the type of game/experience i want the player to have. Lighthearted but still rooted in nostalgia.
I fully appreciate now why a solid plan is so essential to any project. I'll now no longer be producing artwork on the hope of a congruent story, i will be redesigning the artwork to suit the story that's very quickly taking shape.
I apologise if this looks a little wishy-washy and indecisive but i have to admit being directionless before but not anymore. I think it's vitally important that the site candidly reflect my own shortcomings in managing this project. (managing is such a strong word when there's only me in it…)
Anyway, i'll be uploading more artwork after the next draft, yay!

The Pastel Society of the West Coast
Jul 2, 2015 - Sep 13, 2015
On display July 2 - September 13, 2015
Previously held in such venues as the Triton Museum in Santa Clara, Art Center Morro Bay and the Art Museum of Los Gatos, this year the Pastel Society of the West Coast brings its 29th Annual International Open Exhibition back to The Haggin Museum beginning Thursday, July 2 through Sunday, September 13.
The Pastel Society of the West Coast was founded by a handful of dedicated artists from Northern California. Some of the most elite pastel painters in the country enter the annual exhibition.
Since only about 100 paintings are placed in the show, acceptance is considered a worthy accomplishment. This year's exhibition attracted 564 entries from 170 artists. Artists are allowed five entries, two of which may be selected for the show.
Three nationally prominent artists were chosen as this year's Jury of Selection, which reviews all submitted images. Vianna Szabo, Mike Beeman and Alain Picard are all signature members of the Pastel Society of America. These highly skilled portrait and landscape painters have received high honors and awards at some of the nation's most prestigious juried art competitions. They share their skills by teaching workshops and classes at exhibitions and events throughout the country.
The Juror of Awards reviews the actual paintings at the museum and selects the award winners. This year's Juror of Awards is pastelist Terri Ford. Ford has won awards at various juried exhibitions including the Canson Excellence in Arts Award for her landscape titled Pacific Gold in the Pastel Society of the West Coast's 28th Annual International Open Exhibition, in 2014. Ford will offer a workshop at The Haggin Museum on July 25th.

The behavior has changed in TD 7.0.2.
(7.0.1 reacts like expected)
Normally, a label is linked to an object by the outline position in the code.
So when a label is in front of an object in the outline, the Sal functions will take that label and object.
That was the case for any object in TD for ages.
But now in 7.0.2, it seems that it now uses the visual position of the label and the outline position is not taken into account at all.
I tested several object types (pushbuttons, tables, datafields etc) and I see this defect only on picture objects.
Use testcase. There are 3 rows of objects having labels.
The toggle button will hide/show label3 and the object, which is a picture object
Initially it works. Both label and picture are toggled.
Now move the picture object in the outline code up or down.
See that the outline position has no effect. Label3 keeps being toggled in all cases. Even when another label is in front of the picture object.
Now move the label3 visually to be at the right side of the picture.
See that the label is then not toggled.
Move the label3 to be on top of the picture and it is toggled again.
Seems that the link between label and picture is now only when the label is at the left and top side of the picture.
Nice testcase is to swap visually label2 and label3 and see that now label2 is toggled.
This is clearly changed behavior which breaks existing code.
Pictures and labels are mostly used to label images or legends. The text can be in front/top/right or bottom or even anywhere on screen. Now the label MUST be visually at the left or top side to work.
All objects need to react the same as always: the outline position determines how a label and object is linked and not the visual position on screen.
This has been registered buy OpenText as:

The state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) plays a key role when it comes to implementing the energy transition in Germany: as an industrial region with a high level of energy consumption, NRW accounts for a very substantial 33 percent of Germany's nationwide CO2 emissions. If Germany is to achieve its climate targets, NRW will need to switch to a low-carbon energy supply system. A learning platform for NRW and other industrial regions with a comparable structure is designed to drive the energy transition in Germany and Europe further forward.
Many industrial regions in Europe face the challenge of designing a climate-friendly energy supply system, while at the same time preserving their industrial basis and regional value-adding structures. A systematic exchange on questions relating to the planning and realization of ambitious measures and strategies will help the regions to learn from and with one another and to successfully redesign their energy systems. This will support climate change mitigation in Germany and Europe and help countries to reach their climate targets.
A learning platform brings together NRW and structurally similar regions in Europe, as well as stakeholders from business and civil society, and offers them the opportunity to engage in a concrete and systematic exchange with one another and to learn from and with one another.
A basic analysis is conducted to study the framework conditions which exist in NRW and other regions so as to be able to identify basic energy policy principles, experiences and challenges. In a dialogue with actors from business and society, action fields are identified which are key to a successful energy transition in NRW. Structurally similar regions will be specifically brought together to engage in an exchange with NRW about the relevant challenges, possible courses of action and practical examples. Selected political measures and initiatives will be explored to identify obstacles and opportunities. Experts will then provide support with the development of change strategies.

It is in this spirit that the Law 33/2010, of 5th August, amending Law 48/2003 of 26th November, on the economic system and provision of services in public ports, deals with this issue and calls for the inclusion of a sustainability report in the Business Plans of all Port Authorities.
The Port Authority of Ceuta was one step ahead of this requirement and published its first sustainability report in 2009 with the aim of informing the public about the sustainable development activities being carried out by the Port Authority. This report also included objectives for continuous improvement. Following on from this initiative, the first Sustainability Report for 2009 was published in 2010 that informed stakeholders of its social, economic and environmental commitments, its future vision, its biggest challenges, development projects and performance.

The era in which car manufacturers are trying to lower the fuel consumption and the gas emission, Mercedes presents the Mercedes G-Code concept that goes further away in that direction.
Mercedes recently has announced first photos and technical details of new concept G-Code at Los Angeles California auto show, where this crossover will have an official world premiere. Except the unusual design, Mercedes G-Code will have futuristic technology and systems that will bring us to lower energy consumption. Mercedes G-Code will use renewable energy sources to run, like the sun energy or the air flow.
Mercedes G-Code – the whole car as a solar panel
Mercedes has predicted to run the vehicle using a system that is powered by hydrogen and electricity. The idea is that the part of the energy will be received from the sun, but unlike some other models such as the Toyota Prius, Mercedes will not use the classical solar panels.
Instead, the German manufacturer has envisioned that virtually the entire body is one big collector of the solar energy. The secret is in the chemical composition and structure of the paint, what the car is painted with, is capable of transforming the solar energy into the electricity.
In addition, the outer surface of the vehicle will generate electrostatic energy caused by the movement of air around the car while driving, or flow of the wind when the vehicle is stationary.
If all this sounds like science fiction to you, you are right in some extent. Mercedes has not yet produced such paint and generators of electrostatic energy, but these technologies are already in process of making a prototype.
Therefore, the Mercedes G-Code, at this time, is still only an ambitious design study that shows one of the possible routes how the Mercedes cars will be developed in the future.
Release Date and Price
The release date and price of Mercedes G-Code is not yet known, but we are hoping that it will be announced in a short period of time. We are hoping it will happen in 2016…

Fairbridge Festival and The Sewing Room team up for an intimate and unique experience, bringing the acclaimed music festival to the heart of Perth City. taking place within the walls of the newest Perth music venue and nightclub, The Sewing Room. Bringing Fairbridge Festival to the CBD for the first time with UK group Sheelanagig and local outfit Junkadelic.
Sheelanagig have become something of a West Country institution for the past decade. A quintet with a well-stocked armoury of stringed instruments – guitar, fiddle, double bass – and a bagful of joint jumping tunes, these boys sure know how to get a party started. Putting both groove and stomp into a selection of traditional and original European folk music dating from the medieval times to present day, it's difficult – nay, impossible – for your limbs to remain stationary when you're within earshot of them in full flight.The fact that they often play with a knowing wink shouldn't obscure their impeccable technique, virtuoso-standard ability that raises the roof in every place they play. Expect fun, a lot of laughs and some great music.

UAE 'Expat Package' on its Last Legs – Fact
If schools still believe there is such a thing as an 'expat package', then the WSA School Survey should go a long, long way to dispelling the myth. It exists (in Abu Dhabi more than Dubai or Sharjah), but it is fast going the way of the Dodo.
Some facts: 62% of respondents get no help at all from their company, 24% of respondents get a contribution from their company, just a lucky few – 13% – get their school fees paid.
Educators told WhichSchoolAdvisor.com this will come as a shock in many educational establishments within the UAE, where there is the assumption that parents get their fees paid. This we were told is simply because teachers, and the management of the school, do not pay, and therefore think a company covering educational costs is the norm.
This is clearly not the case.
Exact figures vary slightly depending upon the emirate. If you are employed in Abu Dhabi you have most chance of being one of the lucky minority. In total 14% of Abu Dhabi families get their school fees paid, with another 27% getting a contribution from their company. In Dubai, the figure drops to 12% getting full payment, and 23% getting a partial contribution. Sharjah is the least generous of the emirates, with 13% getting full payment, but only 21% getting a partial contribution.
There is also a significant variation by curriculum.
Families sending their children to Indian curriculum schools are the least likely to have company help. This partially explains why Indian curriculum families are the least likely to recommend their chosen school. Perhaps unsurprisingly, having your fees paid by your company makes you see a school in a very different light. Some 68% of respondents who have their fees paid by their company would recommend their child's school, a figure that drops to 58% for parents paying the fees themselves.
Note: It will not of course all be about perception. If your company is paying your school fees, the chances are it will have secured debentures, or have an arrangement with one of the higher performing schools in the Emirates. Even if is is not the case, the higher the contribution, the higher performing school a parent is likely to be able to afford.
Note: The Which School Advisor Survey is open. We will not close it but continue to collect data that will allow us to release more data based stories with more detailed findings. The WSA Survey has had just under 600 respondents so far, which provides a solid basis for our initial findings. If you are not one of the 600, you can take the survey here. With more responses we will continue to deliver further insights. Keep an eye out also for the survey pages as we will provide updates when relevant to do so.

This study examines the major open spaces in North Korea after the Liberation of Korea in 1945. This study can be used as valuable information for further study and especially for the reconstruction planning of the places in preparation for a probable unified Korea. For conducting this study, the method of archival research used was to examine both South and North Korean documents, reports and yearbooks. The following are the findings from this research study. ① Regarding the related laws and regulations of open spaces in North Korea, the land law regulates historic revolutionary sites and parks, and a housing plan regulates squares and streets. ② In South Korea, a restrictive land use system is applied while an imperative land use system is applied in North Korea. The land use planning in South Korea is characterized by its diversity in planning types and its mutual relation among plans. The plan for land development and use in North Korea is not well organized as compared to that of South Korea. Land use by area according to the urban plan in South Korea is more developed and systematized than that of North Korea. ③ In South Korea, a variety of individual laws, regulations and plans concretely regulate open spaces such as parks, squares and streets while those of North Korea do not and function merely as a general planning guide and standard. ④ Historic revolutionary sites as found in North Korea do not exist in South Korea. As for parks in both countries, there are no big differences in park facilities and elements themselves except the fact that the parks in North Korea are closely related to socialist ideas and have political and propagandalistic characteristics and functions.

The study attempted to extract information about such detecting change in the land cover of Seoul using time series data of remote sensing as basic data in landscape planning using a landscape ecological approach. For this purpose, we performed a classification of land cover after geometric collection using 5 scene of Landsat MSS data : 1979, 1983, 1988, 1992, 1996 for a change detection of each land cover. We also tried to compare the results of classification with statistical year book of Seoul to form an analysis of correlation tendencies. The results are as follows : First, there was little diffrence between the result of classification and statistical data in the degree of correlation tendencies except for water body. Second, urban areas expanded agricultural areas and the peak of the increasing degree was from 1979 to 1983, specifically, 60.63㎢. Third, we could find that the agricultural land was transformed to urban land through existing barren land by investigating the spatial pattern on the changing process of image map classified. Fourth, the area of spatial distribution of forest land which was changed to urban land mainly occurred at Nowon-gu, Dobong-gu and Mapo-gu in Kangnam area. Also Kangdong-gu, Songpa-gu, Kangnam-gu and Guro-gu, Yangchon-gu in Kangbuk area experienced changes from 1979 to 1996. Fifth, Considering the changing of the forest land that was 46.52㎢ in Seoul, we need to consider the loss of biological diversity because of the fragmentation of forest land in landscape planning through an ecological landscape approach.

I noticed that I was slightly behind when I found quotes from as far back as February in my notebook. As far as I can tell, these haven't gotten posted in blog format yet. (Or, at least most of them have not. I know the Easter bunny comment was, but I am still including it.) As you can see, Mia is getting some interesting "ideas" and Logan is in a snot-eating phase.
"Okay, Mom, here's my idea: you either give me a treat or we do a craft." ~ Mia (2/2/12) -- Obviously, we did a craft.
"Me love you Mommy." ~ Logan (2/2/12) -- Even though he gave away our hiding spot, how could I be upset? He is such a sweetheart.
Mia overheard us discussing our brackets and asked, "Mama, how come you pick-ed the 'tucky?" (3/12/12)
While reading a bedtime book, Logan sneezed. I said, "Ew. Do you want to get a tissue?" He replied, "No. Me lick it up." (3/25/12)
"Mom, I wish you were the Easter Bunny." When I asked why, Mia said, "because you make the best Easter eggs in the whole world." (3/26/12)
"Snowflakes? No way! It's already spring. Snow shouldn't be falling!" ~ Mia (4/10/12)
"I got an idea and nobody's gonna get hurt. I promise!" ~ Mia (4/18/12) -- Overheard while she was tying a jump rope around the play structure and all I thought was, "famous last words."
"Are all cats girls?" ~ Mia (4/18/12)
Me: "What are you eating?"
Logan: "Something from my nose." {Demonstrates picking his nose and eating the booger.} (4/20/12) -- Obviously, ignorance is bliss.
"I'm the fastest cowgirl in the West, Mama." ~ Mia (4/22/12) -- While playing dress-up.

© Judith Dobie (English Heritage)
This project is a review of the animal bone evidence from Neolithic and Early Bronze Age sites in southern England. A Regional Review report, for which this database serves as an online appendix, has been written which synthesises the faunal assemblages and discusses their implications for husbandry, hunting, meat consumption and ritual activities. The synthesis is based on 205 assemblages from 117 sites of the Neolithic and Early Bronze Age and on a list of 164 'placed' and possible placed deposits.
The counties covered are Berkshire, Cornwall, East Sussex, Devon, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Kent, the former county of Middlesex (now part of greater London), Oxfordshire, Somerset, Surrey, West Sussex, and Wiltshire.
The basic unit of the review and database is the animal bone assemblage, published or available in the grey literature. Some sites have more than one assemblage. All assemblages were included in which the number of identified specimens (NISP) was given. Additional bone deposits were included which were thought by the excavator or bone analyst to have been deliberately deposited and were also included in a data table with placed and possible placed deposits.
The dataset consists of CSV tables which give numbers of identified mammals, bird and fish, micro-mammals from selected sites, eruption and wear of teeth of cattle and pigs from selected sites, and details of placed and possibly placed deposits.
Summary tables are available of numbers of assemblages by period, assemblages by county, wild mammals by period, assemblages with wild mammals by period, placed deposit by deposit type and placed deposits by species.

19th Ward is seeing an upswing in real estate activity
by: Mary Chao
The two-story home off Genesee Street in the 19th Ward had seen better days. Vandals tore through the century-old building, ripping out copper for resale with the entire interior and exterior falling apart from years of neglect and vacancy.
While many would see the zombie home as urban blight, Mark Updegraff saw it as an opportunity. He purchased the 2,500-square-foot dilapidated home for $33,000 in 2017 as an investment, fixing it up to lease.
"This is a popular area for investors," Updegraff said of the 19th Ward, noting its proximity to University of Rochester and the interest in walkable neighborhoods.
The Barton Street home is the latest in a series of investments in the 19th Ward for Updegraff. When it's all said and done, there will be two more units in his portfolio available for lease. In total, Updegraff, 38, has fixed up 30 separate buildings in the 19th Ward, with 50 rental units that his company manages. What began as a way to bridge the financial gap after he was laid off has turned into a full-time new career, with The Updegraff Group employing 27 staffers at his real estate and property management company.
The Great Recession
A graduate from Rochester Institute of Technology's image and photographic technology program in 1997, Updegraff went on to work at ITT in Rochester. But when the company lost a large government contract in the midst of the Great Recession in 2008, Updegraff found himself out of work. He could return to his roots in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, but his wife, Maria, a graduate of University of Rochester, insisted on staying in their adopted hometown. So Updegraff had to adjust and adapt, starting a new career in real estate.
Fortunately for Updegraff, he had invested in rental properties while he was working, so he had some seed money in the form of equity. He obtained his real estate license and found rapport with clients who were seeking a low pressure agent who didn't push for a sale. Updegraff would also scout out distressed homes to fix up as investments.
The city's 19th Ward called out to Updegraff. The southwest city neighborhood is filled with tree-lined streets and grand homes from yesteryear. There's a mix of racial, ethnic and economic diversity with doctors, students, politicians and poor families all living along side each other.
Updegraff scouted for distressed properties, doing his part to help the zombie home problem.
"We go into these areas knowing it will be a hard and slow battle, but if we endure and work together, we can change neighborhoods," Updegraff said.
The best part about restoring homes for rental is that it attracts caring tenants, he added. But he understands that it may be a struggle to retain these tenants in locations where bad elements live in close proximity.
A lot of the dilapidated homes have people who live there who get their income from illicit activities, Updegraff said. These homes look like zombie properties without being vacant, he explained. When these homes spread in an area, some stakeholders will turn their backs out of frustration, which leads to foreclosure or demolition. Vacant homes provide a breeding ground for more illicit activities and the problem just grows, Updegraff said.
