These are the days that I lose all hope in humanity. Here is the next installment of horrible shoe fashion: cowboy boot sandals. The shoes are exactly what they sound like: a mixture of cowboy boots and sandals. I'm getting sick to my stomach looking at these.
There is even a Facebook group for a company that is currently making these wonderful and stylish shoes, the Redneck Boot Sandals. They even boast this about the shoes:
"These Redneck Flip Flops are soon to be the next big product to hit the market. This summers most functional and fashionable statement!"
Somehow, I don't think their prediction of these shoes to be the next big product to hit the market will come true.
USA Today fondly called them "the mullet of shoes."
How about we don't make these become a thing, please? I'm begging you.

When you think of the daily traffic grind it gives you shivers and your only thought is Friday evening when you get home to the calmness. Oh the thought of working from home is very tempting, but you know your income is vital for the survival of your family. Is there a easy way to work from home and still have the income you are use to getting? Yes, fire you boss and step out into self employment and workplace independence.
Logical reasons to work from home:
-The brutal commute is one common reason why people make the decision to work from home. It is extremely stressful having to rise earlier than necessary just to battle the agonizing traffic and to leave work and arrive home hours later when your job is only 30 minutes away. Eventually it will take a toll on the body and the vehicle. The wear and tear on the vehicle end up costing a lot more than needs to be.
-Gas prices – this is a sore topic for most drivers, the frustrating prices have been getting worse over time without any relief in site. It is best to factor in the least of commuting back and forth to work versus working from home will be enough to pay a bill.
-Working from home gives flexibility. There is a certain amount of flexibility when you work from home. You are able to set your own working hours. If there are small children in the family some people choose to work nights or late evening in order to avoid daycare and be with their children. With the exuberant cost of daycare many people make the decision to have their children home while they hold down an at home job?
Having the flexibility to spend more time doing things with the family is one bonus that comes with working from home. Taking vacations when you choose is rather nice.
-No hard head boss to contend with – you are finally able to dismiss the boss that has almost driven you crazy. Many times we have bosses that we can't get along with and it makes going to work a hard chore. May be you have had a terrorizing that have made your life a living hell, another reason to fire your boss.
-Many times working from home allows you to determine your pay check, you work as hard as you allow yourself too. Get the kind of income you deserve. There are many online opportunities that allow a person to have financial freedom. The correct thing to do is research the opportunity, look at the testimonials and look at the company.

Practice makes perfect.
So we've been designing high-accuracy macrocell sites—well over 50,000 and counting—for tier-1 operators in multiple markets since 1999.
Delivering custom site designs that seamlessly integrate multiple bands and multiple technologies on a single antenna (with pinpoint accuracy in coverage and performance), and offering turnkey design services—from initial strategy to site selection, tower vendor selection, and even business case analysis and justification.
We're also finding newer, smarter ways to boost accuracy by augmenting customer-provided inputs with data from social media platforms and census reports. And we're using high-loading machines and streamlined internal processes to push the speed of design far beyond customer expectations.
It's not just practice—it's innovation. So we can get as close to perfect as humanly possible.

Eventual Consistency or ACIDs and BASEs
This is the next post in my NoSQL series. A fundamental concept endorsed by many NoSQL solutions is "eventual consistency." Each product can implement eventual consistency however it likes. RDBMS people are familiar with ACID properties (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability). NoSQL people like to bend the rules a bit and I like to call these BASE properties (Basic Availability, Soft-state, Eventual Consistency).
So, when would you use BASE transactions?
One case is when your network is not reliable. For instance, transactions that must span your local network as well as a cloud provider. Local updates can be queued and batched and sent later. While the remote transactions are in-flight the "syste" is in an inconsistent state, but eventually all updates will be applied and the system will be in balance again.
Inventory systems can withstand eventual consistency, usually, thus are good candidates.
In general, consider BASE transactions in cases where ACID transactions are not immediately required and the data eventually becomes consistent and is never lost.

Patterns is the latest product group that has been devised by Studio & Partners and Haworth as part of the overall reassessment and definition of its product portfolio. Although it is conceived to work in harmony with the Compose (panel system) and Enclose (wall system), it represents a new type of product for the group as it seeks greater appreciation and collaboration with the A&D market.
The design reflects Haworth's exhaustive research into a more human and simple workplace environment that, not only provides privacy but that this inherently scalable and promotes views through the space.
Patterns consists of a range of different size "bridge" forms that include benches, long tables, workplaces, storage units that can be combined in different ways to echo a landscape of contained volumes which, when "dressed", can create a very personal and domestic feel. These volumes can be arranged to create either single or combined configuration as well as providing monolithic units that can reinforce the architectural composition and order of the space.
Althrough a system product that is designed to integrate technology infrastructure and lighting one of its key qualities is the ease in which custom pieces can be produced for single projects. This has always been one of the most difficult problems for office system manufacturers but is now considered a key part of their competivity especially in high profile projects.
Launched at NeCon 2006, Patterns was the key product in Haworth's Chicago showroom and won a silver design award for best workplace system. As a new and iconic product in the marketplace it is providing Haworth an opportunity to win important design led projects.

You Deserve a Piece of the PAI
My name is Ajene Watson, and my friends and I are the developers of the PAI platform, also known as the Public Accelerator Incubator. The purpose of this vehicle is to promote equitable opportunities amongst investors of all classes – rich, poor, and in between. Everyone should have the ability to make money, at the same time, from the same exact investment opportunity. Is this a tall Order? Heck yes, it is.
This is why platforms we are exploring like Crowd Funding and Crypto Currencies, if used properly, are so important. However, these are just tools that are complicated to understand. Even if you learn how to proficiently use them, as with good ole' cash, what good are they if viable opportunities to put them to use are limited?

to Adelaide for the MG Car Club National Meeting. We travelled in this 1960 MGA , which was kindly lent to us by a friend ( thankyou Jim) as John was uncertain of the reliability of our older model MG. We left home in torrential rain to board the boat for the 9 hour trip to Melbourne , the joys of living on an island. I had never been on the boat before and was a little nervous of a rough trip but fortunately the seas were calm.
We spent a night in Melbourne and met our son Callum for dinner before hitting the road bright and early the next morning. Our first stop on the road was in Ballarat , a Victorian era goldrush boom town . The hotel above dates from that time and has been beautifully restored and was just the spot for mid morning coffee.
The Ballarat Mining Exchange was used for trading of shares in mining companies during the Gold Rush Era, it still houses the Mining Exchange Gold Shop. The building was fully refurbished in 2004 and retains many of its original features.
After a couple of days on the road , travelling approximately 730 kilometres , we reached Adelaide and shouted ourselves a night at Mt Lofty House in the Adelaide Hills.
The next day saw us finally visit the Adelaide Zoo to see the two pandas , something we had on the to do list for some time. I did take some photos but as it was through glass they are not brilliant so this guy will do , we both have a passion for black and white.
A sunny Easter Saturday was perfect for the concourse . The best way to describe a concourse , is a beauty pageant for cars . The cars are judged on originality as well as general presentation. The cars above are T series dating from the early 1950's.
There are a diverse range of activities over the Easter including motorkahanas , speed events and observation runs as well as many social events. John and I were quite chuffed to receive a silver medal for our class in the observation run, fortunately I didn't have to map read just follow instructions. The observation run took us through the Barossa Valley , a prime Australian wine growing district with some spectacular scenery. No photos, sorry, I was too busy following instructions.
Posing with these fellows after the run, part of a display of colourful scarecrows .

Directed by: Jason Reitman
Written by: Jason Reitman, Sheldon Turner (screenplay), Walter Kim (novel)
Starring: George Clooney, Vera Farmiga, Jason Bateman, Anna Kendrick, Danny McBride
Being the son of Ivan Reitman may have its advantages, but let's be honest here: Jason Reitman has more than proven himself to be a gifted director in his own right with his first two critically-acclaimed films, Thank You for Smoking and Juno. He's following in his father's comedic footsteps, but choosing edgier material and smarter scripts, and is now well on his way to becoming one of those directors that A-list actors will basically drop everything to work with.
Still, there are some people out there who believe that the success of his movies have been more due to the writing and the acting than his direction, and while I don't necessarily agree, I am pretty sure that his third film, Up in the Air, will change that impression considerably. Sure, the movie is based on a book by Walter Kim and stars George Clooney, but the subject matter is such that it requires a true emotional investment in the characters and just the right tone to work. When all is said and done, this could be the movie that actually wins Jason Reitman an Academy Award.
Ryan Bingham is a 35 year old man who works as a "termination engineer" — ie. an outside consultant who is hired by other companies to fire their employees. He prides himself on his ability to live independently and without attachment, is able to talk his way out of any situation, and enjoys constantly being on the go. Sometimes he does speaking engagements where he explains the philosophy behind his carefree lifestyle. His jetsetting lifestyle is threatened, however, when a young go-getter at his company develops a computer system to handle layoffs and firings via webcam. Not only does this mean he may be permanently grounded, but it also means he may not be able to see the woman he recently met at an airport with whom he may or may not be falling in love. This simply will not do.
Up in the Air is perhaps George Clooney's most defining role to date: he's smooth, self-assured and charismatic, but as time goes on we start to see the cracks in his armor. I seriously doubt that anyone else could have played Ryan Bingham with quite the same level of coolness and sensitivity. As much as he is selfish and smug, he is also fighting to maintain just a little bit of humanity in the workplace. Vera Farmiga (Orphan, The Departed) also turns in quite the impressive performance as Alex, Ryan's sexy and fun-loving counterpart "with a vagina"; she has great chemistry with Clooney which makes for plenty of playful verbal sparring. Meanwhile, Anna Kendrick, who I thought was great in Rocket Science, is dead on casting for Natalie, the smarmy yet naive young computer whiz who is at odds with Ryan's ability to do his job properly.
There are plenty of other interesting faces who turn up for cameos and small roles as well. Danny McBride appears toward the end of the film (although we also see him earlier on as a recurring cardboard cut out) playing the average joe who is engaged to Ryan's sister, and proves that he can tone down the foul-mouth and attitude to do something a little more subtle. Zach Galifiniakis has a very brief appearance as an employee who is being let go, as does J.K. Simmons, while Sam Elliott has a great little part as a pilot, and Young MC even shows up at a corporate party to perform his '80s hit "Bust a Move". What more can you ask for?
Some other people who have "cameos" in the movie include about 20 different non-actors who appear in short interview segments talking about their own recent layoffs and how they are coping with them. These people were told that they were being interviewed for a documentary about layoffs, and the resulting intercut footage is definitely a nice touch, adding a sense of realism and relevance to what is going on in the movie.
There's little question that Up in the Air benefits from being so damn timely, and as a result, it's a movie that I think just about anyone can relate to in some way. Not only is the movie about downsizing, but it also has a lot of biting commentary on communication in the digital age. When you are able to take uncomfortable situations that so many people are suffering through and make them laugh about it without being insulting or presumptuous, you are doing something very special, delicate, and I think, necessary.
Anyone who was turned off by Juno and is now dreading something equally as quirky can rest assured that Diablo Cody had nothing to do with the script. This movie more closely resembles the dark satire of Thank You for Smoking, although I think it is much more mature and a stronger film overall. Once again, there is no clear in-your-face style, but the aerial photography shots and the airport visuals are gorgeous. The only point at which it falters comes toward the end of the film, when you get a slightly cliched romantic comedy scenario involving the sister's wedding, which threatens to reinforce the status quo. Everything suddenly becomes drenched in sentimentality for a while and the indie folk tunes come out of the woodwork, but thankfully the movie throws a curve ball that avoids the easy way out.
Make no mistake, Up in the Air is an indie comedy with a ton of mainstream appeal, but it also has a deeper, human element that draws you in. It's funny yet thoughtful, and it has so much to say about the current economic climate that we are living in, that it's impossible not to recommend. Years from now, however, the movie will still speak to universal truths about relationships, career paths, lifestyle decisions and the grey areas that they inhabit. You may or may not identify directly with Ryan Bingham, but we can all learn a thing or two from his journey. — Sean

A missing Rochester man was found dead Monday evening.
The body of Derek Travis Mills was found in dense vegetation behind a residence at 3127 W. County Road 700 North in Rochester. Family members reported Mills missing Sunday and said he had not been seen or heard from since Sunday, June 4. Fulton County Coroner Jon Good said it appeared the body had been there since June 4.
Good could not disclose a cause of death pending the report of an autopsy scheduled for today.
The area where Mills was found was marked with thick trees and briars along a 20-foot-long fence row, Good said.
Â?We had to practically use a machete to get to the body,Â? Good said.
Good did not know if Mills owned the residence near where he was found, but, he said, Mills lived there with several people.

Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow
Cerena here from the Wendy Mink Boutique and sadly this is my last blog post as I am leaving this amazing company. I'm moving back to my hometown in California and unfortunately I can't bring the whole WMJ company with me.
While at Wendy Mink I had the opportunity to work with all the pretty gems that make up the Wendy Mink jewelry as a production manager. And I was also fortunate to work with all our great WMJ customers as the boutique manager. I'm especially going to miss assisting our customers with custom and bridal orders.
I'm also going to miss working with so many "foodies" like myself. Earlier this week the lovely ladies of WMJ gave me a good-bye lunch. They whipped up fresh guacamole, salad, momos (Tibetan dumplings), shrimp pasta, chocolate cake, cookies and a yummy cheese. Needless to say it was a perfect lunch and made it even harder to leave!
This here is Megan our new store manager! She's rocking some of our latest WMJ designs and please contact her 212-260-5298 or email@example.com for more information about the above styles. Megan is super sweet and is already so knowledgeable about the WMJ line, I can leave with ease knowing that I have a great successor. If you're in the LES this weekend please stop by and say hi to Megan!
I bid adieu to all you WMJ followers, it's been great working with you!
Happy Weekend,

Jennifer and Kim....a wonderful story!
So, this is not what a you might think it is: a sample sale table. No, it is something infinitely more fabulous: the private WMJ jewelry collection of two of our members; Jennifer and her aunt Kim. Wow. Now we knew these ladies had been shopping, er, rather consistently over the past couple of years but when we saw these pics we almost fell off our chairs....we just had to share their stories with you here on the blog, you may never feel bad about buying jewelry again!
We really can not thank Jennifer and Kim enough for their support and downright obsession, they are at all times a pleasure to deal with and sometimes when we are setting up for a sale we catch ourselves saying "Jennifer will love that" or "Kim will buy that"......it's so fun and we hope you enjoy their stories below!
p.s. have a favorite WMJ piece or a collection you love? send us your info we'd love to feature you! email@example.com
Jennifer's story
My name is Jennifer, and I am a huge fan of Wendy Mink Jewelry.
My love for Wendy Mink Jewelry began in January 2010. I was flipping
through Lucky magazine and noticed a spread featuring Wendy Mink's
turquoise agate drops.
I loved the vibrant color and classic design of these earrings.
I decided to check at the boutique and purchased the turquoise
agate drops and turquoise diamond chandelier earrings.
I was so excited about my purchases. I told my Aunt Kim, who is my
favorite aunt and also a shopping enthusiast, about the beautiful
gemstone designs of Wendy Mink.
We quickly became fans of Wendy Mink jewelry.
My Aunt Kim has a great fashion eye, and we actually have many of the
same Wendy Mink pieces.
One of her first purchases was the turquoise chip hoops.
She wore them to a family dinner and looked so lovely that I immediately
ordered a pair for myself. My Aunt Kim and I love scouting the sample
sales together. I'm afraid I always corrupt my Aunt Kim into spending more
money. We also exchange emails and ask each other's opinions on WM
Wendy Mink's South East Asian inspired designs and eye catching colors
really resonate with my style. The pieces are feminine, well crafted,
and unique.
I soon found myself choosing which piece of Wendy Mink jewelry I
wanted to wear before I chose my clothes. One of my coworkers
stopped me and said I always had the most beautiful earrings and
necklaces. That's when I knew Wendy Mink was here to stay.
My favorite pieces are the hoop earrings and empress necklaces.
The hoop earrings are great, especially if you need a piece to go from
day to night. I have them in different colors to match my wardrobe.
Throughout the past year, I've gotten a chance to know Amy and Cerena
better. The Wendy Mink ladies take such great care of their member group,
offering many samples sales and promotions.
The wonderful customer service is all the more reason
why I love the company.
I know it probably seems crazy that I have so many pieces.
But in my opinion, I am just a girl who loves to shop and I know a
great investment when I see one. I feel confident and beautiful when I
wear my Wendy Mink jewelry. I look forward to adding more
pieces to my collection!
e jewelry and just why their collection is so huge.....you may never need to feel bad about buying jewelry again! We are so, so appreciative of Jennifer and Kim, they are
Kim's story
I was introduced to Wendy Mink Jewelry by my favorite niece Jennifer. I have five other nieces, so please don't tell them Jen (as we affectionately call her) is my favorite. J Jen and I have at least two things in common, we both love to shop and we both love to eat. And even though I am more than twenty years older than Jen, we have very similar taste in clothes, jewelry and accessories. We often go shopping together and ask each other's opinion on things we intend to buy. We also email items to each other from time to time and ask for each other's opinion before we buy. Jen is such a good shopper that she even shops for me and sends me suggestions on things that she knows I would like. I could always count on good old Jen to help me spend my money.
On one of our outlet mall shopping trips, I commented to Jen that I liked her earrings. She told me they were from Wendy Mink and started telling me about Wendy Mink Jewelry. She told me how all their pieces were custom made and often made with real gemstones. She also said the prices were reasonable. I was immediately intrigued. She told me about the Wendy Mink website and then there was no turning back. I love Wendy Mink's unique designs and use of different gems. I especially love their chunky necklaces and hoop earrings. Jen also likes Wendy Mink's hoop earrings and is a huge fan of their Empress collection. I think Jen must have most, if not all, of the necklaces in the Empress collection.
Jen is such a sweet and generous person that she has surprised me with several Wendy Mink pieces in the past. Because we have such similar taste, she knows exactly what I like. Could that be one of the reasons she is my favorite niece? Hmmmmmm.
I love Wendy Mink's periodic sample sales. Who doesn't love a bargain! I still remember the fabulous time Jen and I had shopping the sample sales at their boutique last December. That's when Jen introduced Amy and Cerena to me for the first time. Of course, both Amy and Cerena are familiar with Jen because she is one of their biggest and best customers. Amy said she often wondered where Jen puts all her Wendy Mink pieces because she has so many! Amy and Cerena are wonderful and Wendy Mink is lucky to have them work for her.
Over the past few months, I have accumulated quite a collection of Wendy Mink jewelry, but nothing close to Jen's collection. Being single, she doesn't have to justify her spending to her husband. I keep telling her that one day she is going to need a closet for all her Wendy Mink jewelry. Even though my collection will never be as big as Jen's, I am looking forward to adding more beautiful Wendy Mink designs to what I already have.read featuring Wendy Mink's turquoise agate drops. I lto night. I have them in different colors to match my wardrobe. more pieces to my
n before we buy. Jen is such a good shopper that she cially love their chunky necklaces an
What's your favorite from their collection? difficult isn't it!

Royal Jewels
Even though she never became the Queen of England, Wallis Simpson lead a grand life as the Duchess of Windsor with the Duke of Windsor (previously King Edward VIII, but he gave up the throne to marry Wallis!) Wallis' Cartier diamond and onyx encrusted panther bracelet pictured above made headlines last December when it was auctioned for 7.2 million dollars!
Our Vintage Costume Panther Shoulder Pin is a steal at $200! This bejeweled guy measures 8" from outreached paw to tail tip. He's bound to put a little extra swagger in his wearer's step!
These two pieces scream Grace Kelly- they're a sophisticated approach at rhinestone jewelry.
They have the elegance of the Princess of Monaco's Cartier jewels pictured above. Rhinestone clip on earrings, 2"-$120 and Flower Rhinestone Choker, 15"- $160.
A very serious Elizabeth Taylor playing the infamous Egyptian ruler, Cleopatra. We're pretty sure that both the real Cleopatra and Ms.Taylor would enjoy this stunning snake bangle, $180.

French gendarmes find thief stuck in window
PARIS — Arrests can't come any easier than this.
French gendarmes called to a robbery found the suspected thief stuck in a hole he'd made with a hammer in a shop window.
The national gendarmerie on Sunday published a photo appearing to show the man half-in and half-out of the hole.
"Drunk, he robbed a shop but got stuck ... in the window before being arrested," the gendarmerie tweeted, with the hashtag "ThugLife."
The 46-year-old man was arrested Thursday morning in the Pyrenees town of Mauleon-Licharre in southwest France, a duty officer for the regional gendarmerie told The Associated Press.
Firefighters were called to free the man, who was then taken into custody, said the officer, who wouldn't be quoted by name, citing official policy.
Woman almost crashed car when snake slithered from vent
VENICE, Fla. — Something more than air came slithering out of a car vent in Florida.
Monica Dorsett says she "almost crashed her car" when a red rat snake crawled out the air conditioner vent as she drove down a highway in Venice.
Dorsett tells Fox 13 she was in traffic on March 10 when she saw the snake slither out of the vent to the left of her steering wheel. She cut across two lanes and stopped in a parking lot.
She says she slammed the door with the snake half in and half out. Her husband then opened the door and the snake fell to the ground. She says he "euthanized" it.
Venice is about 210 miles northwest of Miami.

Our culture has an obsession with soulmates. Whether you believe in them or not they are incredibly polarizing. There seem to be an abundance of posts and articles written from one side or the other. Singles or Marrieds. Pros and Cons. I'm not going to list several of the ones I've read but I am going to contribute to this conversation in a different way.
I gave up on the idea of a Disney Prince soulmate a long time ago. And I'm truly fine with it. I don't believe another human being has the responsibility or the ability to fulfill me. I don't expect a man to come riding in on a white horse to rescue me. I have no unrealistic expectations of the sacrifice and time and tears that go into making a marriage work. What else would you expect when two incredibly broken people attempt to lay down their lives for each other?
But here's where I think we've made these lines a little too harsh.
Desiring a spouse isn't wrong. Praying for a man or woman to be in your life and be the person you share your moments with is not living in a fairy tale. Hoping to meet someone special who makes you laugh and challenges you and points you towards the heart of Christ is not holding an unmeetable standard for another human. And to be honest I'm a little tired of the shaming that happens with all of these "my husband isn't my soulmate" articles.
Because while I don't believe there is one specific person created to complete me, I do believe there are people out there who have a great match of strengths for my weaknesses and vice versa. For example, I know I am not very good at staying organized, remembering when to pay bills, and meal planning. So someone who does these things well will complement my lack. But where I am strong is remembering names and faces, birthdays and conversations, and inviting people into a story. I love to love. But I'm also terrible at confrontation so I need someone in my life to help me learn that in a healthy way.
We were created to represent different aspects of God the Father. We do this in community, friendships, family, and relationships. So I'm just going to go ahead and say it – it's okay to seek someone who is strong where you are weak and who makes you better for the Kingdom with them than apart from them.
Is this in someway completion? Sure. Is it an expectation that I'm somehow made whole? Not at all. I don't want to bring half a person into a relationship. I want to bring an entire person into a relationship.
Here's the thing – the older I get and the longer I stay single, the less starry-eyed I am walking into a relationship. I'm more secure in who I am and the things I desire in a spouse. I know who I am and where to find my identity. I'm not looking for completion. I'm looking for a partner. A companion.
Maybe we haven't communicated this very clearly. I'm sorry if we (as single people) have failed to use the right words to describe our desire to be married and our longing. A longing not for a soulmate but for someone who does life with you. Who you know is always in your corner, who will be at weddings and funerals, who will disappoint you but also surprise you in the most unexpected ways. Someone you share small insignificant moments with. Sunrises and sunsets. Spilled milk and leaky faucets. Midnight diaper changes and burnt toast. The person you get to look over at, smile, and deeply know there is someone to help shoulder the load of this journey.
Unfortunately, this longing for a companion often gets mistaken as a quest for someone to make all of our dreams come true. Our lives are meant to be lived with another. Unless you've walked it, you don't know what it is like to come home to an empty house after an awful week and be alone. To walk through death and loss and financial hardship and unfulfilled longings and big decisions and crappy weeks by yourself.
So to long for that companion and to wrestle with the ache and to desire a spouse, I would argue, actually turns our hearts more into Papa's intention for us.
And that, my friends, is why I believe soulmates exist.
steady is the hand that's come to terms
with the lessons it has had to learn
I've seen the things that I must do
but Lord, this road is meant for two
so I am waiting here for you

Technology News from Exstream, EFI, Kodak, Mohawk, SeeFile, Oce, Konica Minolta, and Xerox
By WhatTheyThink Staff
Published: May 2, 2007
- Technology News from Exstream, EFI, Kodak, Mohawk, SeeFile, Oce, Konica Minolta, and Xerox By Patrick Henry, Executive Editor, WhatTheyThink May 2, 2007 -- Output devices and workflow solutions were the centers of attention at press briefings held by a number of vendors at On Demand. The various announcements made it clear that the evolution of technologies for digital document production is far from over as the manufacturers continue to raise the bars for speed, image and color quality, cost-effective output, and end-to-end production control. Platforms for all environments from office workgroups to high-volume commercial operations are converging in terms of technical sophistication to the point where the only thing that truly distinguishes them from each other may be footprint. Big, mid-sized, or small, these feature-packed printers are alike in striving to be the best solutions in the application areas for which they were designed. It's a competition that the customer ultimately wins—and the prizes were on view in nearly every booth at On Demand. Oce announced the latest addition to its black and color-capable Océ VarioStream 9000 series: the Océ VarioStream 9240, a four-color press with single-pass duplexing that delivers 172 letter-size full-color pages per minute (ppm). Described by Océ as one of the fastest full-color toner-based digital presses on the market, the VarioStream 9240 prints in B&W, one or two spot colors, or full CMYK modes. Configured as a four-color press, the system can print monochrome documents at 852 ppm and two and three-color documents at 353 and 231 ppm, respectively. Océ also introduced the new High-speed Océ VarioStream 9000, capable of printing black-only pages at 1,350 ppm—60 percent faster than the existing version. The device also will print 2/2 and 3/3 output at their current rated speeds. The GraphicArtsplus mode is also available at regular speeds for increased graphic quality. Océ says that customers including service bureaus, print service providers and in-house plants will benefit from the system's Océ Job Appropriate Color strategy to achieve the best balance of color and speed. Océ PRISMA workflow software for the new platform offers capabilities in prepress, document design, interoperability, job management, and other areas. Output devices and workflow solutions were the centers of attention at press briefings held by a number of vendors at On Demand. The various announcements made it clear that the evolution of technologies for digital document production is far from over For corporate print departments and commercial printers, Océ premiered its latest production-color printers: Océ Color System 620 (CS620) and Océ Color System 650 Pro (CS650 Pro). These small-footprint devices are said to provide 65-ppm printing and copying at one of the industry's lowest levels of total cost of ownership. Finishing options include booklet making, large capacity stacking, stapling, and folding. The CS620 and CS650 Pro also feature oil-free fusing and high-density polymerized toner for prints that can written on or laminated. Also making its debut at the show was the BLM500 book maker. Designed to be attached to an Océ cut-sheet printer, the BLM500 combines stitching, folding, spine forming and long-edge trimming to produce square-spined books up to 200 pages or 10 mm thick. Konica Minolta unveiled Printgroove, a modular, automated workflow solution that it is positioning as a much less expensive alternative to large-scale legacy production systems and competitive print management software. Printgroove is available in three complementary modules: Printgroove Serve, for automated, Web-based digital job submission, proofing, and tracking; Printgroove Guide, a shop-floor production management system that can handle traffic volume, manage job ticketing, tracking and billing, and monitor devices in real time; and Printgroove Queue, a solution that links and centrally controls multiple Konica Minolta bizhub devices for optimized performance. The company also highlighted the recently launched bizhub C550, a 45-ppm color/55-ppm B&W document printer for high-end office workgroups. Another recent launch, the bizhub PRO C6500 Digital Printing System, is said to offer "spectacular" color printing with speed, reliability and cost efficiency in to light- to mid-volume production applications. Responding to growing concerns about document security, Konica Minolta, announced that it is among the first manufacturers to achieve Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) 3 and ISO 15408 (Common Criteria Certification) status for its bizhub and bizhub Pro color and monochrome multifunction printers (MFPs). ISO 15408 establishes a language for specifying and evaluating security functionality for networked devices. Konica Minolta notes that while some manufacturers have ISO 15408 certification for specific security components and functions, its implementation covers the entire MFP system to provide end-to-end security. Protective features include automatic Hard Drive Overwrite; hard drive encryption; the industry's first Biometric Authentication function; and other capabilities for virus protection, user access restriction, and secure file transmission and printing. The major show news from Kodak was the expansion of the NexPress family from three platforms to five with the introduction of the NexPress M700 and NexPress S3000 digital production color presses. Kodak positions the M700 as a mid-level digital press for customers seeking to grow monthly page volume with short run color, Web-to-print, and variable-data printing applications. The four-color press runs at 70 ppm at a resolution of 1200 x 1200 dpi. The S3000 delivers 3,000 cut sheets per hour. The existing NexPress 2100, 2100 Plus, and 2500 digital color production color presses make up the rest of the NexPress line. Kodak also unveiled the Nexstation V front end and Nexstation system software v9.0, a new operating control system designed to increase uptime and improve productivity of NexPress presses. A productivity enhancer for the 2500 and S3000 platforms, a roll feeder from Lasermax Roll Systems, also was introduced. Kodak says that its booth was the only exhibit at AIIM/On Demand presenting solutions for attendees at both segments of the event. Highlights include Web-to-print solutions for electronic ordering and tracking; connectivity to digital printing systems; and templates for creating customized variable data print applications. Kodak also will demonstrate its complementary inkjet and electrophotographic technologies; a variety of scanning solutions; end-to-end production management with its Unified Workflow and Prinergy systems; and the Darwin VI authoring tool for the QuarkXPress 7 and Adobe InDesign CS3 page layout applications. Darwin VI converts documents created in these applications into variable information documents in which all elements—text, graphics, colors, layout, charts, background, and even entire pages—can be dynamic. SeeFile Software announced that the newest version of its Web-based creative collaboration tool, which allows drag-and drop uploads and Web proofing, is now compatible with Enfocus Software's server workflow products, PitStop Server 4 and Automate 1. SeeFile allows individuals or creative groups to harness the power of the Web in real time so that clients and collaborators can upload and process PDFs and other graphics files through an intuitive Web-based interface. SeeFile says that unlike hosted providers, its solution permits large media files to be saved to the local hard disk of a workflow server. The software then automatically creates the thumbnails and watermarked previews and displays them in a simple Web browser interface. These files and folders can be remotely accessed via standard browsers like Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer. SeeFile 3.0 also introduces a range of advanced functions like side-by-side image comparisons, on-screen annotations, and color-coded collections for each user. SeeFile says that by combining the product's transparent Web interface with Enfocus's automation tools, users can reap many of the productivity benefits of high-end systems such as Creo's Synapse and Xinet's WebNative. SeeFile 3.0, which can be run on any OSX Macintosh, is a free release for owners of earlier versions of the software with an annual upgrade contract. Mohawk Fine Papers Inc. used On Demand partly as a platform for its voluntary efforts in sustainability and response to climate change. At their press briefing, the company announced that as of March 1 of this year, it has increased its purchase of recoverable energy certificates for wind-generated electricity from 45,000,000 kWh to 60,000,000 kWh annually. Mohawk—the first U.S. producer to use wind power for papermaking—says that this "green" energy represents 60% of all of the electricity it uses for manufacturing, converting, and distribution. Mohawk also announced its participation in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Climate Leaders program, an industry-government partnership aimed at developing comprehensive strategies for addressing climate change. By participating in Climate Leaders, Mohawk has pledged to inventory its corporate-wide greenhouse gas emissions and to report progress in reducing emissions to the EPA. Product news from Mohawk included the expansion of its portfolio of digital papers for HP Indigo, Xerox iGen3, and Kodak NexPress platforms. The Mohawk Color Copy now includes a new 110 cover in Mohawk Color Copy 98; added weights in Mohawk Color Copy Gloss; higher 92-brightness in Mohawk Color Copy Ultra Gloss; and new sheet sizes for the iGen3. New Mohawk Via Digital papers provide satin, felt, and linen finishes for high-quality digital output. The relaunched Beckett Expression line, featuring Mohawk's proprietary i-Tone surface treatment, is available in basis weights from 80 text to 100 cover for both conventional and digital printing. Beckett Expression papers, says Mohawk, are "carbon neutral": produced using energy offsets that counteract increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide. Exstream Software Inc. announced the launch of its two newest products, Dialogue 6.0 and Dialogue Live. Dialogue is a platform for building and deploying batch, real-time, and interactive document applications across the enterprise, with open-architecture connectivity to the enterprise's data sources, systems, and Web infrastructure. Dialogue 6.0 is a major new release with over 250 enhancements and eight new modules—several of which are for increased support of PDF, both on the design and production side. Fully integrated with 6.0 for high-volume and on-demand document production, Dialogue Live is Exstream's new solution for intelligent, interactive documents. Exstream says that Dialogue Live provides a common infrastructure for managing the editing of all types of interactive documents across the enterprise. It also automates integration of field-edited documents with centralized corporate systems and document production. Companies are said to benefit by eliminating point solutions and manual fulfillment processes in the field, resulting in more productive employees, significantly reduced costs, less strain on IT resources, fewer calls to customer service, and happier customers. According to Exstream, Dialogue Live is ideal for companies in all industries that want to provide customer-facing employees with the flexibility and autonomy they need to complete interactive point-of-need personalized documents for clients, while ensuring accuracy and costs are controlled through centralized production and fulfillment. EFI announced the availability of its most advanced Fiery print server to drive Xerox's DocuColor 260 digital color printer/copier. The server features WYSIWYG job composition and imposition tools; open, flexible VDP workflow and architecture; and expert tools for graphic arts professionals. The server also offers advanced queue management capabilities that eliminate bottlenecks and minimize downtime for enhanced productivity and improved profitability. A "bustled controller" feature designed for the DocuColor 260 is said to provide exceedingly high levels of productivity, flexibility, security and ease of use. These capabilities include driving more printed pages; easily printing Word/Excel/PowerPoint documents through an e-mail client without a printer driver; and strengthened security. EFI says that through open-platform compliance with industry standards such as JDF, PDF, and PPML, the Fiery EX260 seamlessly integrates into customers' overall print shop operations. This enables the server to function as a gateway to third-party technologies, Xerox FreeFlow solutions, and EFI products such as Colorproof XF for proofing and EFI Print MIS solutions. At the show, EFI showcased the newest versions of its Splash Mac OS X-based workflow software option for the Fiery embedded server driving Xerox color multifunction systems; EFI MicroPress, a color/B&W raster-based workflow solution; Digital StoreFront, EFI's Web-to-print e-commerce platform for print service providers; SendMe, EFI's flagship product for digital color document capture, edit and distribution; and the EFI Color Profiler Suite profiling solution.

A world leader in international student placement services
and a proud co-owner of IELTS
Corporate Social Responsibility
In November 2015, we launched a Corporate Social Responsibility strategy (CSR) comprised up of three predominant themes; community, environment and wellbeing. The aim of our CSR strategy was and still is to be more sustainable in our activities, making positive contributions to the community through charitable practices, as well as working closer with some of you, our clients.
Here is an overview of what we have done so far:
Theme 1: Community (November 2015 - Present)
Diversity and Student Experience
As part of the Community theme, we have been exploring ways to offer careers skills training initiatives and on the 15th September, we launched our very first employability workshop in partnership with the Welsh Refugee Council (WRC). The WRC aims to help refugees to improve their life in the UK by focusing on employability and job-seeking skills. We therefore decided to host a session which focused on CV writing and improvement, and this is set to be the first in a series of workshops being run throughout the year.
Peter McGowan, the UK Team's HR supplier, led the workshop with Marketing Officer, Petra Vahalova, supporting the first cohort. Five refugees attended the session, who came from South Sudan, Syria, Yemen and Afghanistan, and all had a high level of educational qualifications. It was a pleasure to work with them, and we are looking forward to meeting our next attendees.
WRC's Education Officer Iona Hannagan Lewis noted that the cohort "… thoroughly enjoyed [the session] and found it to be very useful… these sorts of innovative partnerships are exactly what our service users need. I'm very much looking forward to the next!"
LinkedIn and Personal Branding Workshop - April 2017
We recently welcomed a group of 10 refugees to our office for an employability workshop about LinkedIn and Personal Branding. The workshop was the fourth of a series of employability sessions that IDP run in partnership with the Welsh Refugee Council in Cardiff.
The session was delivered by Martyn Edwards, our Head of Marketing Communications and Business Development, who is also a LinkedIn expert (and addict!).
Before the session started the attendees introduced themselves and talked about their very different academic and professional backgrounds; from Engineering to Finance to English Literature. They are originally from all over the world including Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan and Sudan and are all currently looking for a job in the UK.
Feedback from the attendees was really positive: "I have learnt a lot of useful tips about how to build a strong LinkedIn profile…I will definitely rebuild my profile for it to be more professional and attractive."
On May 4th, we will welcome all the attendees again for a LinkedIn surgery session run by Martyn, so they can have feedback on their profile. If you would like to be involved with our work with the WRC, please get in touch.
The IDP Great British Bake Off
The Great British Bake Off competition marked the introduction of our CSR policy in November 2015 and was the first activity in our "Community" strand. The Bake Off resulted in money being raised through a 'bake sale' - the proceeds of which were donated to local refugee charity, Oasis. It also gave us the opportunity to celebrate 5 years being in the UK and was an invaluable team building event.
The cakes proved very popular and Oasis were very grateful for the donation, commenting:
"Thank you for the amazing donation we received today…All the monies will be put to use supporting our work with asylum seekers and refugees."
Arlene Griffiths, Director, Client Relations & Business Development UK & US, commented on the success of the day by saying:
"The bake was a great success and it was wonderful to see the whole team fully commit to it. The creativity that was demonstrated was wonderful and made me proud."
Theme 2: Environment - Reduce, Re-use, Recycle (January 2016 – present)
To reduce the impact that we have on the environment - our second theme - we teamed up with sustainability consultants, Cynnal Cymru, to assess how we can address this important issue.
Based on the theme of 'Reduce, Re-use, Recycle', we are aiming to minimise our carbon footprint while embracing resource-efficient working practices such as recycling, waste reduction and energy conservation. So far we have:
- Introduced a recycling scheme in the office
- Begun promoting cycling to work in order to reduce carbon emissions, and to encourage a healthy workforce
- Reduced paper usage by defaulting printers to print double-sided, and by introducing a system for re-using scrap paper in the office
- Begun purchasing only fair-trade food and drink products for communal consumption in the IDP UK office
Theme 3: Health and Well-being - The UK and US team World Challenge January 2017-
As part of the health and wellbeing strand, each member of staff from both the UK and US teams have been supplied with a with a FitBit Flex 2; a wireless device which helps you to track your activities, exercise, sleep, weight and more. The FitBit has the slimmest wristband, with standout features such as swim proof, interchangeable accessories, reminders to move, a smart track auto exercise recognition and a call and text notification.The teams have been challenged to journey through the World, passing by our IDP Education counselling countries. The UK Team started off in Cardiff, Wales and began walking East. The US team started in LA in the US and began heading west. A weekly total of miles is calculated for each team as well as the location walked to.
Several challenges have been set up starting the end of January 2017. There is still a long way to go. Keep up with our progress by subscribing to our blog.
The UK Team Get Moving (January 2016 – April 2016)
These days, it's easy for work to confine us to our computer desk, which can make us sedentary. To try and break the habit, January 2016 saw us kick off our "Well Being" strand, starting with a pedometer challenge.
The motive for the pedometer challenge was rooted in an 8-year study conducted on 4,000 people, which found that those who did just 15 minutes of moderate activity a day added approximately 3 years to their life.
Not only does walking reduce your risk of illness and injury, it increases your fitness, health and wellbeing, achieves results you can see, and has the lowest dropout rate of any form of exercise.
Each member of the team was given a pedometer so that we could record our daily steps and come up with a collective total to see how many kilometres we had walked as an office.
We focused on you, our clients, as a source of inspiration. Starting at our most northern client, the University of Aberdeen, we decided to "walk" to our most southern client, Plymouth University. The challenge was a great way of bringing the team together and helped each of us to think more about our personal approach to fitness. In the first week alone the team covered over 300km.
In total, the challenge lasted until 4 April 2016, during which time we covered 2,358,666 steps. That's 1,179 miles, or 1,786 kilometres – enough to walk from our northernmost to our and southernmost clients twice!

Everybody ready for a reading week
To begin with: no, the university is not going to be closed next week — that's not what "reading week" means. Yes, classes are cancelled across campus, but offices and services will be in operation (including the libraries, for those who take "reading" literally); staff will be at work as usual; many faculty aren't taking the week off.
That's except for Monday, of course. February 18 is "Family Day", the new holiday sprung on a waiting world by the Ontario government, and UW is among employers that will be honouring it. So Monday is a day off for staff, with offices and most other things on campus closed. The Davis Centre and Dana Porter libraries will be open from 12 noon to 6 p.m. on Monday, following a weekend of regular operation.
As always, and even on Monday, the UW police (519-888-4911) will be at work, the Student Life Centre (519–888-4434) will be open, and the central plant will monitor UW's buildings (maintenance emergencies, ext. 33793).
The Physical Activities Complex will be open pretty much as usual next week, apart from Monday, but the Columbia Icefield will have reduced hours (8:00 to 7:30). The bookstore, UW Shop, TechWorx and Campus TechShop will be open their regular hours Tuesday to Friday, but the stores in South Campus Hall, which are usually open on Saturdays, will be closed tomorrow and also next Saturday.
A number of food services outlets will be closed, but there will still be victuals at Brubakers in the Student Life Centre, Pastry Plus in Needles Hall, Bon Appetit and Tim Hortons in the Davis Centre, Browsers in the Dana Porter Library (but not on the weekends), Tim Hortons in South Campus Hall, and Mudie's cafeteria in Village I.
Doubtless some students will be hitting the books (or the digital equivalent) or working hard on lab and studio projects over the days ahead. Doubtless, too, others will slope off to, well, the slopes, or be drawn to warmer climes. I've heard little this year about academic field trips and volunteer expeditions during the week, but presumably there will be a number of those as well.
And then everybody will be back in place a week from Monday. At that point there will be just six weeks (plus a day) of classes left in the term. Winter term exams begin April 10, and the registrar's office says the final examination schedule is now available online.
A week's pause in co-op job interviews
Another thing that won't be happening during reading week is employer interviews for spring term co-op jobs. The main interview cycle began January 30, but takes a break this week before finishing with five final days, February 25-29. Students will get their match results, if they're lucky, on March 3.
"February 2001 was the last year that we scheduled co-op employer interviews during reading week," recalls Olaf Naese, communications administrator in the co-op and career services department. "From February of 2002 until February 2006, we ended the first cycle of employer interviews ended before reading week started. Last year was the first time that the first cycle interviews were halted for reading week, then restarted the week after.
"From the CECS perspective, reading week is a problem because it interrupts our cycle and causes us to lose a very valuable week of job finding for co-op students. The lost interview week can't be made up later.
"We can't schedule interviews during reading week because, very simply, we can't rely on students to be available and many are not." In the days when interviews carried on regardless — and students in two of the big co-op faculties, engineering and math, had a two-day break rather than a full week — "the result," says Naese, "was that employers had lots of no shows. We faced angry employers, some of whom cancelled their jobs and went to the competition or over time simply refused to come during the reading week. On the other hand we also had to deal with dozens of students who, because they had a family vacation to Mexico, wanted us to either allow them to miss interviews that came up during reading week or somehow get the employer to change their date. When we told them we could not change an interview date, many simply chose to miss the interview.
"All in all, it was a big headache.
"When the job market cooled down in the early 2000s we found a natural solution. With a lower number of jobs we could cut back the number of days in the first interview cycle to the point where we could finish by the time reading week started. The next cycle could simply begin after reading week. This worked well logistically and students were happy because they could go about their business without having to worry about missing interviews when they wanted to be away.
"Last year, we found that the number of jobs had increased. We decided that an interruption in the first interview cycle was the best way to go. So we have a few weeks of first cycle interviews, skip a week and continue for a final week, then hold the computer match.
"Of course, we still have one less week in the winter term for co-op students to find a job so that remains an issue."
Ups and downs over the past four years, as shown in a presentation to UW's board of governors last month by Peggy Jarvie, director of co-op education and career services.
Engineers take their obligation today
There will be 700 more Canadian engineers before today is over, as graduating students from UW's faculty of engineering will take part in the Ritual of the Calling of an Engineer and put on the Iron Ring for the first time.
"The Ritual has done great service to the Engineering profession and is uniquely Canadian," explains Dwight Aplevich, associate dean (co-operative education and professional affairs) in the engineering faculty. "Once again this year, the Faculty of Engineering is happy to cooperate with Camp 15 of the Corporation of the Seven Wardens, which will be conducting the Ritual in three ceremonies beginning late Friday afternoon."
The ring, worn on "the little finger of the working hand", is a token by which to recognize an engineer who has deliberately taken an "obligation" to his or her new profession. The first Iron Ring ceremony at UW was held in the spring of 1963. As in the past, ceremonies will be held in the Theatre of the Arts and are not open to the public.
Also as in the past, today's solemnities will be preceded by a day of not-so-solemn celebration. Says Aplevich: "Although the ceremony is solemn and formal, in recent years the graduating class have been celebrating the day by dressing up in fancy costumes and parading in the halls before changing into business attire for the ceremony. This year, engineering professors are invited to the Carl Pollock Hall foyer just before noon, to celebrate with the students as an electronic clock counts down the seconds to Iron Ring day noon."
After the ceremonies tonight comes the Iron Ring Stag, the engineering party to end all parties. Amid the merriment, there will come the Tool, mascot of UW engineers — and the newly ringed ones will be permitted to touch its metal for the first time ever.
Other notes before the long weekend
The ballot box from the January 24 vote on staff unionization is to be opened some time next week — date not yet set — and the votes counted, says Catharine Scott, UW associate provost (human resources and student services). She said yesterday that "an agreement" has been reached by UW, the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation and the Ontario Labour Relations Board, which includes a decision on which disputed ballots will be counted. Scott said she couldn't say anything at this point about the details of the agreement.
The big event is less than a week away: on Thursday some 475 UW students from all faculties and 200 students from area high schools will help fill the Humanities Theatre as Microsoft founder and chairman Bill Gates visits the university. Demand for the free tickets continues — phone calls are coming in steadily, organizers say — though all were spoken for almost immediately, mostly through student organizations that were given quotas. "It comes as no surprise that everyone wants to come hear Bill Gates speak, even if the event does fall during reading week, when so many of our students are away," said mathematics dean Tom Coleman. "People were eager to get tickets when he visited in 2005, and we continue to field requests for what is already a sold-out event." The lucky few must remember to bring their WatCard or they will not be admitted to the 9:45 a.m. event. Other rules: no backpacks; limit any picture-taking to the first five minutes. The talk will be shown live on a big screen in the Davis Centre great hall, and details of a webcast are pending.
Today is Loving to Learn Day, sponsored by the Centre for Teaching Excellence as "an opportunity for everyone and anyone to share their reflections about their love of learning" Some of this year's contributions are to appear online today, along with names of the winners of four prizes donated by the UW bookstore.
Results of the Federation of Students election and referendums should be announced about noontime. • Nominations are due today for the annual election of Graduate Student Association executive members. • Nominations in a by-election to a student seat on the UW senate are scheduled to close February 22.
The "Branded" exhibition in Render, the UW art gallery, will be closing as of tomorrow. • The clothing drive operated by the Sociology Society in support of a local youth shelter is scheduled to wind up today in the Student Life Centre. • Yesterday's Daily Bulletin said that the Festival Fare cafeteria is in the Davis Centre, when in fact it's in South Campus Hall.

A Phase II, Non-randomized, Multi-center Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Pazopanib (GW786034) in Subjects With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Study 109609 is a single-arm, non-randomized, single-stage Phase II study of pazopanib in
subjects with Stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer who have progressed after one or
two prior regimens of systemic therapy. The study will be conducted at a limited number of
institutions in the US. A total of 40 evaluable subjects will be enrolled and treated.
Pazopanib will be given at a dose of 800mg (as determined by previous Phase I studies)
orally once per day. Subjects may continue to receive study drug for up to two years unless
they experience disease progression or withdraw from treatment for other reasons, or unless
the Sponsor terminates the study. A rollover study may be available to those subjects who
are exhibiting clinical benefit (stable disease or better). Evaluable subjects will be
assessed for response as the primary endpoint.
Allocation: Non-Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Either a Confirmed Complete Response or Partial Response Per RECIST Criteria
The best overall response using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RESIST) was measured. Complete response is defined as the disappearance of all known lesion(s), confirmed at 4 weeks, and partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions taken as a reference to baseline sum of the longest diameters, confirmed at 4 weeks. No formal efficacy analyses were performed due to early termination of the study.

Katy Perry's chart-topping hit 'Roar' has been axed as the Cincinnati Bengals' matchday anthem.
The decision came following a social media backlash after the track was unveiled as the pre-game, in-game and post-game song at Paul Brown Stadium on Monday (September 16).
Some fans even complained on Twitter before the Bengals' fixture against Pittsburgh Steelers was over.
Jeff Berding, the Bengals' director of sales and public affairs, told the Wall Street Journal: "I think some fans proved that there's an expectation that when the team takes the field, there should be more of a hard-rock, classic-rock song, and I know that's what we're going to do this game.
"Katy Perry is not going to be the last song you hear before the team takes the field."
The Bengals' next game is against Green Bay Packers on Sunday (September 22).
Perry recently achieved her fourth UK number one single with 'Roar'.
It also scored her a number one US hit and matched a US airplay chart record set by Rihanna.

South Fork Softball Drops Double Header to St. Bernard's
However, the Lady Cubs found some rhythm in game two and scored 7 runs. Down 12-0 in the fourth inning, "we got our bats going and rallied," said Van Meter who was 1 for 3 with a double and a walk. Senior 1st baseman Gabi Moore was 2 for 4 with a double, sophomore Kylee Savio was 2 for 2 with a double and 2 walks and junior Kylie Girard was 1 for 3 with a double.
Sophomore Jasmine Todd made her high school pitching debut in game 2 and did well, according to her battery-mate Van Meter.
"We are our own worst enemy at times," said Coach Todd, referring to the errors. "We still have a lot of little things to work on and we are getting there now that we can practice outside."The Lady Cubs will host two double headers this week. On Friday Laytonville comes to town with the opening game starting at 2 p.m. On Saturday South Fork will host Ferndale, with the opener starting at 11 a.m. The team's three seniors, Van Meter, Morre, and Sabrina Miclette will be honored during their last home appearance of their careers on Saturday.

Bohor (1962)
Even though Iannis Xenakis never made "musique concrète" in the sense given by Pierre Schaeffer, the GRM was a locus for experimenting with his ideas about sound and sound structures. The works, composed between 1958 and 1962, show a boldness as advanced as in his orchestral approach.
The relationship between Xenakis and Schaeffer was often tense. It nevertheless entailed mutual recognition and respect towards each other's musical approach. Moreover, "Bohor" is dedicated to Schaeffer, as evidenced by the letter Xenakis sent him on October 8th, 1968: "Dear Pierre, I have decided to dedicate Bohor to you, out of friendship and gratitude for your contribution to music. I hope you are pleased with this." Schaeffer found the piece disproportionate in terms of intensity but was indeed pleased by the dedication.
The four pieces presented here, all produced at the GRM, undoubtedly demonstrate the experimental intent and the strictly "physical" character of Xenakis' music, in that it provides the audience with a listening experience of a rare intensity."-François Bonnet & Christian Zanési

Droll British farceur Fred Emney is the star of Fun at St. Fanny's. Emney plays Dr. Septimus Jankers, headmaster of an exclusive boy's college. When the insititution is threatened with a shutdown instigated by its creditors, Dr. Jankers decides to "shake down" a wealthy, middle-aged student threatening to withhold that worthy's long-overdue student accreditation. The overaged "schoolboy" is played by music hall-TV comedian Cardew Robinson, who in 1956 was at the height of his popularity--so much so that he plays "himself'. Fun at St. Fanny's is chock full of the sort of healthily vulgar humor indigenous to the British stage of the 1940s and 1950s; even the title is a cheeky double-entendre.
Add this movie to your queue to receive more information about
Fun at St. Fanny's and we will let you know when it becomes available.

Car Sales, Transaction Prices Climb
As the auto industry experienced an 11-percent climb in May year-over-year sales, the robustness of the market is also reflected in that average transaction prices have climbed more than 2 percent, according to Kelley Blue Book data. The estimated average transaction price for light vehicles came to $32,307 last month, an increase of $653 or 2.1 percent over a year earlier.
The high average reflects not just stronger sales, but also a change in the types of vehicles consumers buy as they move away from more traditional 4-door sedans to pricier small and mid-size crossovers. According to KBB senior analyst Karl Brauer, "Benefiting from the strength among the crossover segment, the Acura MDX now comprises more than a third of Acura's sales, boosting the brand's transaction prices 5.5 percent year over year."
While VW Group sales are down five percent overall, Audi's 11-percent gain in sales was enough to lift the group's average transaction price by 5.5 percent. Chrysler Group posted both a 13-percent increase in sales and a corresponding 4.8-percent rise in average transaction price during May, also on the strength of its Jeep and Ram brands.
