Philegexby in CodeSOD on 2018-04-30
Last week, I was doing some graphics programming without a graphics card. It was low resolution, so I went ahead and re-implemented a few key methods from the Open GL Shader Language in a fashion which was compatible with NumPy arrays. Lucky for me, I was able to draw off many years of experience, I understood both technologies, and they both have excellent documentation which made it easy. After dozens of lines of code, I was able to whip up some pretty flexible image generator functions. I knew the tools I needed, I understood how they worked, and while I was reinventing a wheel, I had a very specific reason.
Philemon Eichin sends us some code from a point in his career where none of these things were true.

The Subway, Zion National Park - Utah
One of the most amazing features of any slot canyon in the southern Utah desert is this nearly tube-like formation named the "Subway". A headlamp start, a permit, and all the preparations for hiking in a river for most of the day, gets you to this point by late morning - earlier if you aren't' carrying a camera. The emerald pools and thin film of water flowing over the crimson and coral sandstone make this location one of my favorites.

If you want to build your own social networking website but lack the technical knowledge to code one from scratch as most of us do, chances are you have looked in to using a social networking platform. Many companies have developed social networking platforms that allow customers to build social networks easily and that are customized to their needs.
Often referred to as "white label," these platforms become invisible and allow the creator's brand to take center stage. The social network creator can customize the platform any way they like for a variety of effects and features. There are two basic types of social network platforms within this classification; ones that are hosted remotely and the easiest to use and ones that you download onto your server and run as an independent program which you are responsible for managing.
Remotely hosted social network platforms allow you to set up your very own social network with the least amount of work and technical knowledge. You can basically point and click to choose the features and design you want without having to worry about the technical details.
There are many companies that offer this type of social network platform, with Ning, CrowdVine, KickApps, GoingOn, and People Aggregator being just a few for you to consider. If you have the desire to create a social networking website for your business, group, or just for fun, these types of platforms are the easiest to use and are the best solution for those without much technical skill.
If you have some technical experience then a social network platform that you download to your server and configure yourself may be the best option for you. This type of platform offers the most flexibility and custom features, but you must know how to implement them yourself. PHPFox is a popular platform you can download and configure yourself.
You can also have a social network built for you using a platform you download on your server if you have the money to pay a developer and want the most personalized social network you can get. One Sit is a company that offers such services to web developers without the technical knowledge to make their own social network from scratch but want the most customized application possible.
No matter if you choose a remotely hosted platform or on that you download and configure yourself, make sure you compare the features of the major platform solutions to ensure that you are getting the features and customization you need.

Poker Tournaments
Loads of poker enthusiasts are fascinated with the thrill offered by online poker rooms. Furthermore, these rooms organise various poker tournaments every once in a while. In the majority of these tournaments, the players can join in for free and therefore a lot of players are being attracted to them.
The online poker tournaments offer a lot of variety. There are several variations of poker competitions and the players can select the one based on their skill and expertise. It provides an opportunity for the players to bet against the other players from different parts of the world. As far as the tournaments are concerned, there are expert players taking part in them and that makes the competition pretty tough. There are hundreds of poker rooms; however it is best to refer to the poker room reviews prior to participation. Some of them charge a small entry fee, so as to offer bigger prize money. The poker game is mostly played on multi-table and the players try to eliminate the opponents by winning most hands. Typically a poker table contains about nine to ten players and they all usually play on an aggressive mode in the initial stages of the game. This strategy would help them build a larger stack size in the beginning.
The stack size is limited and as the players are eliminated in the game, the size of the multi-table reduces as well. Finally, the game is taken down to one single table. On the other hand, there are rooms that decide the winner in each table and then they are made to compete against each other. Regardless of the appearance and the type of the online poker tournament, the players are usually skilled. Therefore winning is quite a challenge in such rooms.

#49 Literature and the Anti-Slavery Campaign, 1861
Poster caption: Anti-slavery advocates in 1861 invoked founding-era poet Joel Barlow to decry the evils of slavery and to connect Union goals to the freedom-loving ideals of the American Revolution. The lines here are quoted from Barlow's Columbiad, of 1807, based on his Vision of Columbus, first published in 1787.
These posters are 22" x 30", full color, and printed on a semi-gloss white stock. Each one features a caption that places the image in historical context.

Eyes, fragile but crucial for human and almost all other animal life, pose difficult challenges, both for basic research and for effective solutions to the medical problems that such research investigates. Caltech professors Yu-Chong Tai and Hyuck Choo work with students and postdocs along with distinguished University of Southern California (USC) faculty and medical professionals on a range of these challenges, using multidisciplinary approaches spanning nanotechnology, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, physics, optics, photonics, and optomechanical engineering.
Meeting these challenges offers the potential for significant human rewards. While the most widely feared disease is cancer, as Tai notes, next on the list is blindness. And there, he says, the medical bar is high: "People usually don't make enough effort to maintain their eyes until it's too late. On the other hand, for the blind, having their vision even partially restored would represent a major advance."
New tools are changing the game—tools that have the potential to diagnose eye conditions, to restore vision to the blind, and to make state-of-the-art medical eye-examination technology available much more widely around the world, even in places with limited health systems. The Caltech and USC teams hope to deliver revolutionary new systems that may soon enable patients in remote areas around the world to be examined rapidly, without having to have their eyes chemically dilated and then be immobilized for many hours in clinics. If these new systems succeed, many more patients will receive full eye exams instead of brief looks.

Friday last week, after a good feed, the whole agency headed down to Bondi. Swapping our computer mice for kitchen knives, we spent the afternoon cooking together.
As part of our Social Conscience Program, each year the agency organises for every staff member to donate their time to charity. This time, we chose to support Our Big Kitchen (OBK) which is a community kitchen in Bondi that nourishes, educates, supports and inspires people in need. The premise behind it is that; people and companies volunteer their time to cook food, package it up and then it gets distributed to people in need in and around Sydney.
George, a very passionate, warm-hearted man who runs the kitchen, welcomed us with a smile and began by giving us a quick intro to OBK and why it exists. He shared with us some very humbling stories and explained where the food we were about to prepare would be sent to and the difference it would make to the people receiving it.
After donning our aprons, and some rather fetching hair nets, we headed into the kitchen
After donning our aprons, and some rather fetching hair nets, we headed into the kitchen
Joey, another dedicated member of the OBK team, guided us as we chopped up potatoes, carrots, tomatoes, celery and squash (luckily no fingers) which, we then cooked into a tasty stew.
Once we had cleared up and wiped down after preparing the main course, we got into two groups to create dessert. One group was tasked with distributing cookie dough onto baking trays to make biscuits.
The other group set to work peeling apples to make the filling for apple strudels.
Filo pastry laid out, and egg wash at the ready, we began rolling up dozens of apple strudels ready to be transported along with the stew.
Once we finished, we sampled some of the food we had prepared and met one of the OBK founders, Rabbi Dovid Slavin who founded OBK in 2005 with his wife Laya Slavin. He told us about an app which OBK had recently had built. Our app designers and developers jumped at the chance to take a look and suggest improvements and enhancements.
After a brief interlude we went back to the kitchen to do the most important job of all – packaging up the meals. Forming a production line, we packed, stacked and labelled up the meals ready to be delivered in time for dinner.
We made over 200+ meals and desserts for people in the local community who wouldn't have had a hot meal that evening otherwise
We made over 200+ meals and desserts for people in the local community who wouldn't have had a hot meal that evening otherwise
The activity was very worthwhile and we all came away feeling we had really contributed and given something back.
To put in perspective, last year Our Big Kitchen made and distributed over 70,000 meals to people in need in and around Sydney. OBK relies on the generosity of companies and volunteers to be able to keep up their incredibly important work. If you would like to get involved or think it might be something your company would enjoy doing, get in touch with George and the team here.

New library needed
Give credit to York County Library Director Colleen Carney and the staff of the main branch of the library for doing what they can to serve the public in an outmoded facility.
While the library in downtown Rock Hill was closed over the holidays, officials did a little remodeling. Although Carney concedes that the library has outgrown available space, she is committed to making the best use of the space that is available and to do so on a limited budget.
To that end, the technology lab was moved from the first floor to the second floor, increasing space for new computers. The lab now features 19 computers for extended use and a few others that are designated for reviewing e-mails or doing a quick fact check. Officials hope the new arrangement will cut waiting time, which was averaging 80 to 90 minutes.
By the end of the month, the lab also will have a large, flat-screen TV for classroom instruction.
Furniture was added to an expanded young adult book section, which was moved upstairs. Large-print books were moved downstairs, adjacent to books on CD and tape.
Local history and genealogy books were moved into a larger area, and the reference desk was divided into localized help centers scattered throughout the library. Patrons now don't have to walk all the way across the library to get to a single reference desk.
All these changes sound reasonable. Library officials no doubt are the best judges of what patrons want and how to utilize space to meet their needs.
Unfortunately, in announcing these changes, Carney acknowledges that a new downtown library is not likely for the next few years. Again, we question why a new library in Rock Hill is not a higher priority for the county.
We understand what occurred during the 2006 county bond referendum. That $75 million bond package included plans for a new, multimillion-dollar library in downtown Rock Hill. But, trying to gain the support of a broad cross-section of voters, planners decided to load the bond issue down with something for every part of the county. In the end, the smorgasbord approach backfired, and the bond issue was rejected by a nearly two-to-one margin.
Voters seemed to regard the package as overloaded with unnecessary items. But the new downtown library was a victim of that backlash.
Every other branch outside of Rock Hill is either relatively new, has been extensively remodeled or is in line for expansion. For years now, Rock Hill has been left to make do with an inadequate library for the number of patrons it serves.
We appreciate the dedication of library workers in doing their best to improve service and convenience for patrons under difficult circumstances. But we hope the county soon will revisit the pressing need for a new main branch in Rock Hill.

Pineapple Log Cabin Quilt
The fabric was purchased in England and is made up of The Union Jack and other symbols of the United Kingdom. There are Bobbie's, taxi cabs, crowns, pay phone booths, double decker buses and assorted landmarks all throughout the fabric. I added a few of the assorted blues and reds but the theme fabrics are truly English.
Amazing Jelly Roll Quilt
This pattern is from the 3 Dudes and broken down by Missouri Star Quilt Company. You take 4 strips and sew them together, measure the width of the strip and cut the strip into squares. Take one and place it horizontal on your cutting board and place a different or same square vertically on top, sew all around the outside and cut it diagonally from corner to corner twice.
I made one square and got hooked and before I knew it I had made 12. I used the hinge method to put the squares together. It is a quilt as you go method and goes together really quick. It was completely made with scraps.
Floating Four Patch Quilt
I got this pattern idea from The Gourmet Quilter. She was using up some scraps so I did the same and made a scrappy floating four patch quilt. This quilt measures 38 x 52 just the right size for a lap quilt for one of the Homes for the Aged.
Two Block Kid's Quilt
Strange as it may seem, that is the name of this quilt. I got the pattern from All People Quilt when I was looking for a pattern for a child's quilt. It was so easy just to use large square of assorted children's fabric that I had on hand and just added the coloured sashing.

One pot blackberry glazed salmon and asparagus in 20 minutes or less. What's better for dinner than that for dinner? I can't think of a single thing.
I am always skeptical that "20 minute" recipes really aren't. But. This one really is – and, in fact, is less than 20 minutes, because you put everything in the pan and then just simmer for 8 to 10 minutes.This really is a dish delivers on that "20 minutes" promise. So easy. And amazingly flavorful.
The idea came from Cook's Illustrated. You use the asparagus spears like a "raft" to hold the pieces of salmon up out of the water. You pour a cup of water ( I used low sodium broth) into the pan and the asparagus boils while the salmon steams. Genius technique! But it seemed a little bland to me, so I added the blackberry glaze and then threw it under the broiler for just a few minutes to finish. Perfection!
You can even make this on a Wednesday night, just for example – not sayin' this really happened – But. If you get home after 7:00 and The Hubs is starving and sitting at the table, fork in hand, stomach growling.
The blackberry glaze is a snap – just stir together blackberry preserves, olive oil, vinegar, smoked paprika, cumin and salt – and then spoon onto your salmon and throw it under the broiler. The sticky, sweet glaze with just a little kick will make up for all the impatient toe-tapping. Guaranteed.
— posted by Donna
20 minutes total time
Serves four
1 cup low sodium vegetable broth
1 pound thin asparagus spears, thick end removed
4 6-ounce skinless salmon pieces
1/4 cup blackberry jam or preserves
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon each smoked paprika and cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
Bring the broth to a simmer in a large skillet – I used a 12 inch skillet. As soon as the broth begins to simmer, place the asparagus in the pan. Lay the salmon fillets on top of the asparagus and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for about 8 minutes, until liquid has almost completely evaporated.
While the dish is simmering, stir together the remaining ingredients. Remove skillet from heat. Spoon the blackberry mixture on to the salmon. Place skillet about 6 inches under the broiler for 2 minutes or so, until blackberry glaze starts to bubble.
Serve immediately.

These days, nearly everything can be outsourced. The advantage of acquiring outsource assistance is that you do not need to employ the workers either contractually or permanently. This saves you the hassle of having to think about their bonuses, vacation leaves, and other incentives. Since the outsourcing company you will be getting your professional assistance service from makes it a point that all their employees are highly qualified, it gives you better reason on why you may want to opt outsourcing such help instead of hiring the workers as employees.
The added benefit of outsourcing is that the company the workers come from will already provide the necessary training for any type of specialized work assistance. These days, even the different roles and positions found in the petroleum industry, particular fieldwork positions, can be outsourced from outsourcing companies that particularly caters to oil and gas companies. They employ professionals in different fields and work classification in the oil and gas industry. In fact, even project management duties can be outsourced from Oil and Gas Project Management Companies.
The advantage of outsourcing a particular position that you need in the oil and gas business is that the workers from outsourcing companies have already been prequalified. This means that there is very little training required to make them work efficiently and effectively on your field operations.
If you require someone to do project management for your oil and gas business, it is very important that you attain help from oil and gas outsourcing companies that have project management for oilfields and other essential applications in this business. If you have worked with the company before and everything went well and you have developed trust with the outsourcing company's ability to provide you with very dedicated and capable worker, then it's likely that you can rely on them in providing you with equally capable workers in other work positions when necessary.
In the aspect of project management, there are really things you get to know better once you have experienced them and belonging to the oil and gas industry is no exception. Fortunately, the companies that provides outsourcing support, help, and assistance already trains them earlier on and thus already have a firm grasp on the position you have hired them for.

Most consumers in the UAE are ready to embrace artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, according to Accenture's 2017 Digital Consumer Survey.
While 76% of users are comfortable with an AI application responding to their query, 68% have interacted with computer-based apps in the past 12 months, the survey found.
This compares with the global averages of 44% and 31%, respectively.
While eight out of 10 (82%) respondents said that the availability of AI at any time was the key reason they prefer it over human interaction, three-fourths (74%) said AI engagements are faster and more polite than talking to a living soul.
The fact that more UAE consumers are comfortable using voice assistants, gesture control, and eye movement is encouraging for the devices and services markets, said Gerardo Canta, leader of Accenture's communications, media, and technology operating group in the Middle East, Africa, Russia, and Turkey.
While 44% of respondents said they are interested in using a voice-enabled digital assistant embedded in smartphones or PCs, 29% said they would love to use a standalone voice-enabled digital assistant device.
More than 50% think personalized services based on digital voice-enabled assistants are 'cool.'
While just a few years ago many customers resisted chatbots and other computerized customer service features, now 76% are comfortable with an AI application responding to their query, the study found.
The study also identified augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) as driving up purchase intent for smartphones, smart glasses, and VR headsets.
In the UAE, the demand for these technologies now stands at 68%, 55%, and 54%, respectively, compared to the global averages of 56%, 42%, and 39%, respectively.
Besides, the report found that UAE respondents are more interested in hyper-personalised services than their global counterparts, with nearly two-thirds (65%) of UAE consumers saying that tracking online behavior and shopping history helps provide them with a more personalized experience, compared with only 40% of all respondents globally.

Studio Mica site history. First posted in spring of 1996 as an anime fan site, established on Tripod. Changed site name several times. Studio Mica name adopted in fall of 1997. Hit counter established in August of 1999. 1999 saw the move of the site to www.clearscape.com. However with the sale of Simplenet.com to the Yahoo network, clearscape was unable to continue hosting the sites that it housed. As a result, the site moved (back to) Tripod where an old mirror still existed. Tutorials were added in 1998, and have been periodically updated. This site is currently version 9.

We are often asked if abusers ever change.
The answer to this question is a tricky one and it varies widely. First, there is a range is what an attempt at change can look like. On one end of the spectrum, it could be a man trying everything in his power to keep a promise made to his wife that it would "never happen again". It could also be an abuser who made that same promise with no intention of deliberate follow through.
Often the batterer we think of when we evaluate change is the one actively involved in some kind of rehabilitation program (usually facilitated by a court mandate). This is also the batterer we are better able to track and have more access to researching. For those reasons, data on this topic is likely to be skewed toward court-involved men in Domestic Violence Intervention Programs (DVIPs).
Even narrowing the field to men engaged with a DVIP produces a wide range of approaches and a lot of grey area surrounding outcomes. According to the Duluth Model, "68% of men who pass through the criminal justice system response and are sent to our men's nonviolence classes have not reappeared in the criminal justice system over a course of eight years." That is a promising statistic. Unfortunately, the Duluth Model is not used universally.
That means that the best case scenario is that approximately two-thirds of abusers don't appear in the criminal justice system for eight years. Which really just means that they don't get arrested. We know that domestic violence is one of the most under-reported crimes, so we can assume that some of these men continue to batter (perhaps scaling back to "just" emotional, verbal and financial tactics to control) without detection.
The question here is not how many batterers change, but if they can. Since we believe abuse is a choice, we must also believe that abusers can choose to stop it. The difference between success and relapse could be any or all of the following factors:
- Motivation: Is the batterer truly embracing change? Has he admitted to a problem? Is the timing right to focus on treatment and implementing new habits?
- Support: Is there adequate support from family/friends? Is there incentive from the legal system?
- Treatment: Is he receiving treatment? Is the treatment high quality? Does it follow a proven curriculum?
- Other Factors: Is substance abuse also an issue? Are other medical or mental health issues being addressed? Are current living or work situations healthy?
As a society, if we are going to address the entire issue of domestic violence, we must not neglect change among the abusers. In Clackamas County we practice offender accountability through the Domestic Violence Deferred Sentencing Program (DVDSP), within the Family Violence Coordinating Council (FVCC), and numerous DVIPs.

Jimmy Houston is a native Houstonian with a Scottish lineage that dates back to the 1200's. As a young boy, he was always sketching and drawing. He studied film and animation and graduated with a degree in Radio TV Film at the University of Texas @ Austin. Jimmy Houston is a 'Retro-Animation Artist', who re-evokes the 'Baby Boomer' era with deft strokes and colorful characters. At his core, he is storyteller, who takes the observer back to simpler, happy times. Jimmy has created a cast of memorable characters. Two characters are central to his brand, "Rig and Rex." These reoccurring twin primates represent the two sides of Jimmy Houston and in every man: classically suited up, yet ready to rumble; strong and confident; yet sensitive to their friends and the world around them.
Jimmy's characters come alive on the canvas replete with every emotion, uncovering a world of wonderment and imagination. The art is unique in that it bears signature to the old Hollywood animators, but it translates into fine art, with his many characters sculpted onto the canvas and fixed in the viewers mind. His work is ageless, timeless and brings back the joy and innocence that lies within us all.
Jimmy's Patriotic themed artwork has been one of his most popular series to date. In 2016, many of his artworks were sponsored by Houston businesses in an outdoor mural exhibition located in CityCentre Houston. This series pays homage to all the enlisted service men and women, both past and present and to his brother, Lieutenant John Joseph Houston (d. 2009), who served as a pilot in the U.S. Naval forces.
"I seek to tell stories through my paintings that evoke satire, imagination and a collective nostalgia. My cartoon characters serve as guides to a forgotten existence, often poking fun at the rebellious kid in all of us. The ramshackle world of my pieces strives to remind the viewer of the fearlessness of adolescence. My paintings seek to reveal the wonder of things discovered.
I want to unite the past and present by redefinition. It is fresh and new, yet as inviting as a long forgotten cap gun, a frayed comic book or a grandfather's pocketknife. I count it a great blessing to be able to interpret and render the images of my imagination. As I continue my journey, my heart and vision remain with storytelling. "
MUIR FINE ART GALLERY - Houston, Texas
Jimmy's artwork is sold at the Muir Fine Art Gallery located in CityCentre Houston, a popular luxury retail | residential | commercial development with anchor restaurants that mirror Highland Village. The popularity of his artwork has reached a point where originals are getting scooped up within days of their release and collectors eagerly await the newest piece to emerge from his studio.
CJL MEDIA ARTS GROUP – Houston, Texas
Jimmy signed with CJL Media Arts Group to manage the growing demand for his artwork within the US and in countries like Norway, Canada, Mexico and Argentina. His artwork is now available as limited edition hand-highlighted giclees, which enable both first-time and seasoned collectors, the ability to acquire and enjoy his artwork. CJL Media Art Group owners, CJ Alvarez and John Muir Lockhart say of Jimmy, "Jimmy's humble charm, solid work ethic, coupled with his extraordinary talent and appeal are the ingredients for his success." "We see Jimmy's talent reaching the likes of Seth McFarland ("Family Guy") and Sam Simon ("The Simpsons") because of his creativity and proclivity towards making people feel good."
This year people have expressed the need to surround their environment with happy and hopeful messages. Jimmy Houston's artworks have continued to find their way into new Collectors' homes to create that feeling of comfort and nostalgia.
In February 2017, Jimmy Houston's "Big Game" Exhibition was featured by Muir Fine Art Gallery as their main exhibit. New outdoor murals sponsored by Alphagraphics of Katy and Radio Milano graced CityCentre. Throwback football images featuring Rig & Rex in leather helmets made a huge impact to the Houston visitors and helped get them into the spirit of the Super Bowl LI festivities around town. In addition to the artwork, Jimmy unveiled new custom order retro-apparel and furniture that delighted the crowds. More to come on this front....over the next few months.
In April 2017, Jimmy donated an artist proof of "Big Game" which was auctioned off at the 19th Annual Jacob Green Celebrity Golf Classic Dinner. NFL Seattle Seahawk great Jacob Green and former Houston OIler, Dan Pastorini gathered with other NFL greats to raise funds for several Houston charities including the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Houston.
In January 2016, Jimmy Houston was selected as a Finalist for the 2016 Hunting Art Prize for his submission "Fly Away Home." As evidence of the appeal of his retro-animation genre, this marks the fifth time that the independent Hunting Art committee selected Jimmy's work to be in the Finals. Jimmy was a finalist in 2009, 2012, 2013, 2015 & 2016. This prestigious annual competition is sponsored by the international oil services company, Hunting PLC and is open to Texas-based artists. Although "Fly Away Home" did not win the "top prize", his work was hailed by many as a favorite!
In April 2016, Jimmy Houston was selected to represent the Muir Fine Art Gallery in the eccletic & bohemian Austin Art Festival. As wonderful luck would have it, the Hunting Art Gala fell on the same weekend. Jimmy said it was a privilege to split his weekend between Houston and Austin to attend both events.
On the 10th of September 2016, Dianna Bluntzer, Director of Art Center Corpus Christi (ACCC) and Juan Antonio (Tony) Armadillo, ACCC Board Member, extended an invitation for Jimmy Houston to host an educational art workshop for the Advance Placement Studio art students at the ACCC campus. Twenty-two (22) talented and budding artists listened intently to Jimmy as he explained what it meant to him to be a professional artist, why he selected animation his main genre, how he conceived his twin primate characters "Rig & Rex." Houston also recognized his amazing support system, which included his wife, Kendra, a Cy-Fair ISD Leadership Development administrator, family, friends and his management team, CJL Media Arts Group. Click here to read the press release.
In June 2016, The Boys and Girls Club of Greater Houston and the Houston Texan Organization awarded Jimmy the honor to paint the first ever "Houston Texan Teen Club Mural" in the U.S.! Top Houston muralists with many walls to their credit all vyed for this exciting opportunity; however, it was JImmy Houston's creativity that won the hearts of the Project Committee Members. Jimmy gives thanks to the Project Committee members and his management team CJL Media Arts Group for their wonderful support and belief in his mural vision.
On November 29, 2016, the Houston Texans Teen Club mural was unveiled at 1520 Airline Drive. Scores of happy teenagers were in attendance as Members of Executive Management Team for the Houston Texan Organization, The Boys & Girls Club of Greater Houston and Academy cut the ribbon to officially open the venue. Jimmy Houston was recognized for his beautiful mural which is a beacon for the neighborhood and will hopefully encourage more donations to for additional teen clubs to be built across the greater Houston area.

In February 2015, KHOU "Great Day Houston" interviewed Jimmy for the popular morning show hosted by Deborah Duncan. "I love Jimmy Houston. His artwork makes me smile" stated Ms. Duncan.
The American Heart Association holds their Houston Heart Ball Gala each year in February to raise funds for Heart & Stroke patients and educational programs. Jimmy donated an artwork entitled "Have A Heart", which depicts Rig holding two hearts in each hand. The viewer is reminded that their donations are needed to help those suffering from heart ailments and require expensive treatments or surgery. His painting was one of many generous donations, which helped the Houston Heart Ball meet its fundraising goal of $1.5M for 2015.
In April 2015, Jimmy Houston's artwork was introduced at Art Expo New York, a world-renowned annual exhibition of the best art gallerists and artists from around the world. Seasoned trade professionals, gallery owners, NY art critics and collectors stopped by Booth #148 to meet Jimmy and talk about the colorful artwork that made them smile. Over the four days of the show, many people purchased pieces. All that stopped by got an opportunity to take home his signed inaugural "Rig & Rex USNY Tour" poster as a momento of their visit to AENY 2015.
In June 2015, Jimmy was invited to join The Mural Project @ CityCentre - Steering Committee. The theme was "Bringing Houston Arts to CityCentre." Urban & mural artists were selected to paint on canvas mesh measuring up to 12' x 26' long. These artworks were placed outdoors in 18 locations throughout the South end of CityCentre. The official public unveiling of the murals took place on July 4th, where over 10,000 visitors voted on their favorite(s). The project took months of planning & coordination and included over 25 mural & urban artists. Being a huge supporter of the Arts in the community, Jimmy was happy to be part of the inaugural and highly acclaimed Mural Project @ CityCentre - Steering Committee that showcased the talent residing in Houston.
In September, 2015 Jimmy joined Ana Villaronga-Roman, Director of the Katy Contemporary Arts Museum (KCAM) "Pieces of Texas" Project Team. Jimmy painted eight special "found object" art pieces, which were affixed to the iron wrought structure welded together by conceptual artist, Felipe Lopez . The non-profit exhibitors, which included the KCAM sponsored structure was featured as a standout at the Houston Fine Art Fair by Houston Chronicle's Arts reporter, Molly Glentzer.
In November, 2015 Jimmy was introduced as "an emerging artist to watch" to the international crowd gathered at the "Dreamscapes - First Look" event curated by Muir Fine Art Gallery and held at the exclusive Marque Club. The event featured artwork by creative genius and legend Sir Anthony Hopkins in his first Houston exhibition.

The University of Minnesota's Department of Family Medicine and Community Health has trained more than 1,900 family medicine doctors in the last 45 years. More than 70 percent have stayed in Minnesota. More than 80 percent of Minnesota counties have practicing physicians who graduated from our family medicine training programs. As a faculty member in this department, I am privileged to witness every day the passion and commitment of our hard-working residents and faculty to providing an array of evidence-based integrated health-care services to the underserved, to rural communities, to groups facing discrimination and injustice, to immigrants/refugees, and to ALL people across Minnesota.
In 2015, the department lost $14 million that had previously been available through UCare to support its teaching and family medicine residency programs. As a result of this loss of sustainable funding, training positions have been cut. We need support to be able to continue to train doctors that will serve Minnesotans.
HF 889 / SF 715 proposes to provide about $6 million for the first year and $8 million in the year after. It will provide a solid financial footing so that the U of M's Department of Family Medicine and Community Health can continue to fulfill its mission of training the doctors that care for Minnesota.
Please contact your state senator and representative and ask them to actively support the funding of the University of Minnesota's Department of Family Medicine and Community Health by supporting bill HF 889 / SF 715. Thank you.
Michelle Sherman, Ph.D., is a professor in the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health, University of Minnesota.

Distillator hails from the Netherlands and plays a straight-ahead brand of thrash metal that is likely to appeal to fans of Bay Area bands. "Summoning The Malicious" marks their second full-length, and is a potent, thrashing effort. Though there is no shortage of bands ripping off groups like Exodus, Metallica, and others from San Francisco, few of them can replicate the brilliant songwriting of those legends. Fortunately, this is where Distillator shines. "Summoning The Malicious" features incredible, memorable hooks, alongside tight riffing. The end result is a satisfying, albeit unoriginal, effort.
Most of the tracks on this release are fairly short, and tend to follow simplistic song structures. The band relies on breakneck riffing, played with a tone that rivals modern Exodus in its crunchiness. This monolithic tone is somehow unleashed by just one man, but this means Distillator's bass player gets the spotlight on a regular basis. He best shows his skills in "Mechanized Existence", where he even gets a solo, but has no shortage of solid bass lines throughout the remainder of the album. The real treat, as with any great thrash release, is the quality of the riffs. "Megalomania" has the album's best such riff, as it takes Running Wild's "Tortuga Bay", and essentially turns it into a thrash song. On the title track, the band plays off a truly evil lead to create a darker, more sinister sound than anything else found on the record.
Two slight exceptions to the band's formula are "Estates of the Realm" and "The King of Kings". The former track is a mid-paced effort that brings the groove to thrash. While not as effective as a song like Warbringer's "Remain Violent", for example, it is most definitely not a watered down track. The razor-sharp guitar tone makes the chugging riffs effective, but the band's vocalist isn't quite strong enough to carry a tune like this, as he primarily employs a monotone shout (though all throughout the album, he isn't afraid to go into a Schmier-styled screech). "The King of Kings" takes things one step further, by instead being a slower, more brooding track. The end result isn't too bad, but as with all thrash bands, Distillator is best when playing at full speed.
Overall, "Summoning The Malicious" is an upper-tier modern thrash release. Distillator has focused on crafting great songs first, and though they stay in a relatively safe space, they're playing an already safe subgenre of metal. Compared to their peers, this band exceeds nearly all of the faceless thrash groups of the day, and falls just a tier below gods like Warbringer or Havok.
Be sure to check out and like Distillator on Facebook!

Postpartum Depression
About half of women have mild depression after giving birth. You may have difficulty sleeping, feel irritable, cry more often, or feel overwhelmed, typically peaking 4 days after birth due to rapid hormone fluctuation. Many women will begin to feel better after 2 weeks, but women can experience "baby blues" episodes throughout the first year of your child's life.
You may be feeling:
- overwhelmed
- guilty, like you aren't a good mom
- irritated or angry for no real reason
- hopeless, like it will never get better
- empty or numb
- disconnected
- unable to concentrate, sleep, or eat
- like running away
- like you can't snap out of your depression
- like you have "gone crazy"
If you feel these symptoms strongly, or for more than 2 weeks, seek help. Call your doctor or your child's pediatrician and ask for a referral to a doctor that can help you develop a plan to address postpartum depression. You can do things that will reduce the frequency and severity of these feelings and increase your happiness.
If you ever want to hurt yourself or your baby, call 911 immediately to receive care. Professionals can help you stay safe for the short-term and connect you with resources to help you heal.
Postpartum Depression is typically addressed through one or more methods:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy to assist you in managing anxiety, including instruction on deep breathing and relaxation techniques.
- Interpersonal counseling focusing on relationships in your life and helping you make strategies for coping with the changes that a new baby brings to your life. You will learn strategies to ask for emotional support, solve problems, and set goals for the future.
- Antidepressant medicine is available, ideally in conjunction with the methods above. You can take certain antidepressants even if you are breastfeeding.
You can take certain steps at home.
- schedule frequent outings with friends and family
- get outside into the sunshine
- eat a balanced diet
- prepare snacks that are easy to grab while breastfeeding
- ask for help with meal preparation and house cleaning to reduce stress
- rest and sleep when your baby does
- listen to upbeat music during the day
- listen to calming music for nighttime
- join a parents group or class, like PEP
In addition to baby basics classes and regular new parent groups, Postpartum Education for Parents (PEP) offers a free 24-hour service with confidential one-on-one support from trained volunteers, parents just like you. From basic infant care to breast or bottle feeding issues to postpartum adjustment, the Warmline can be a great source of information and support.

Sean O'Regan's dream of running his own women's college basketball program finally tips off when James Madison opens its season against No. 13 Tennessee on Friday night.
After nine years as a Dukes assistant, the game will be his first as their head coach.
''It's a pretty big change for me, moving a chair over,'' O'Regan said of replacing Kenny Brooks, now the head man at Virginia Tech.
The visit from the Lady Vols, the winningest women's team in NCAA history, was O'Regan's idea.
''I didn't feel like wading into the water. I felt like jumping in,'' he said.
O'Regan is one of 56 new head coaches in Division I basketball this year. Other notable changes include Stephanie White taking over at Vanderbilt, Jen Rizzotti at George Washington and Jim Crowley at Providence.
There is an historical component to the game in Harrisonburg, Virginia. While the Lady Vols' 1,299 victories are by far the most among all women's programs, the Dukes are a surprising fourth on the list with 1,045. The matchup is a good way to try to get the season off to a fast start, Lady Vols coach Holly Warlick said.
''I don't care what level it is, JMU's been proven to be a solid team,'' she said. ''They've gone to the tournament. They went to the tournament last year. I continue to say our schedule needs to get us ready for the tournament. I think this does just that. It will be a huge crowd. ... It will be a difficult game.''
O'Regan expects Dukes fans to be out in force to kick off the season.
''There's an exceptional buzz around the game and I think it will be fun for everyone involved,'' he said. ''The community here, they support football and they support men's basketball, but I really believe it's a little bit of a women's basketball school here with the support we get. It helps us in so many ways. It helps us with winning games. It helps us with our players feeling relevant, and I think that's a big thing in women's basketball.''
More than crowd support, O'Regan has returning talent. The Dukes went 27-6 last year, including 17-1 in the mid-major Colonial Athletic Association, and went to their fifth NCAA Tournament in the past nine years. And they did it despite not having redshirt senior Precious Hall all season because of injury.
Hall, a 5-foot-8 guard, averaged 20.8 points as a junior, and is back at full strength, helping to minimize the losses of top scorers Jazmon Gwathmey (20.7 ppg), Ashley Perez (14.4 ppg), and point guard Angela Mickens.
''Year after year with what Kenny did here, it seems like you lose irreplaceable players every year, and you keep finding a way to replace them,'' O'Regan said. ''The Precious piece is huge. ... You don't find players like that very often, and when you do, you rarely walk into a program where they have one there waiting for you.''
The Dukes also have ample size led by 6-2 2016 CAA Rookie of the Year and all-defensive selection Kayla Cooper-Williams (5.8 ppg, 8.3 rpg, 70 blocks) and 6-2 senior forward Da'Lishia Griffin (6.6 ppg, 9.5 rpg).
O'Regan would love a marquee victory to start his head coaching career, and Friday night's matchup with the Lady Vols not only affords the Dukes that opportunity, but a chance to quickly gain some national recognition.

Ah nothing better then exploiting the death of somebody.
But you could have legal probs with this domain. it's not for certain but a lot of people suggest staying away from celeb domains.
It depends on how you use the domain. if it's for non commercial use then you woudl be fine..
At least respect the man and make some fansite instead of just parking it.
But in general stay away from celeb domains, if youre not using it noncommerial fansites...
Ok, thanks.
I will develope a good site... I "loved" him: He is BIG.
I'm a big fan of Michael since the early 70's and still much in awe of his great accomplishments. As for his name being used I don't have a problem with it unless it's out to slander the guy then no good. I mean even the people who brings the news makes money off of any dead or alive celebrity and adding an adsense or two wouldn't hurt to keep the site running but keep the content in check is what I say.
RIP Mike!..
Every body have made enough money from this guys (mj) death more than when he was alive..
The media have made enough money with the traffic is bad news have gave them than is good news for years if there is eny..
Our bad news is always good news for media..
Jackson is dead and gone make yr money guy after enough fun you have have with him but plz plz don't mess him respect!..

Well, here's the answer!.
IKilledMichaelJackson.com was registered Friday..
Is Michael Jackson dead? When? How did it happen?..
My parents keep me locked up in the attic when they travel. I have a lot to catch up on. So is he really dead? That's BAD How did it happen? I need to go and read some more about this THRILLER..
They say M.J. worshipped the King, and therefore went out just like the King - dead on the potty after overdosing on dope, before the age of 51.
Meanwhile, as to celeb fansites (and I run dozens of them), here are 3 Things To Never Do:.
1. Never SELL stuff on the site, even little T-shirts or mugs that you make yourself down in your basement, because that's seen as earning money from the celeb's name.
2. Never LINK to another celeb site that's similarly earning money that way, since it's seen as though you're getting a piece of that pie, whether or not you really are.
3. Never start up a site right after a celeb has DIED , since besides looking very tacky, it's seen as the move of an opportunist who will therefore no doubt soon start selling junk on his site...
So, dont do it if you are trying to make any $$ in other words..... ( ??)..
I made a site for him. 7 year old domain. Fansite before all of this hype. MJCollector.com.
Has search engine to find his videos. 24hr radio-video station and more. I was part of the MJ generation...
I had 17 MJ domains. Where should I redirect traffic..
So is he really dead then? Or will we find him flipping burgers in the same McDonalds as Elvis in 2014..
Not just if YOU directly make money. This is the mistake so many domainers get caught up in - it's also equally important to avoid the APPEARANCE of making money from linking to cash-run sites, or hearse-chasing (registering a celeb's name right after that celeb's death).
It prompts ICANN/WIPO to point their binoculars in your direction, so the minute you even scratch your nose - boom! They drop down on you like a ton of bricks...
Give it a rest about folks making money off the back of MJ....
Here in the UK, some publishers had new books written and published within 72 hours of the guy dying.
Why would they do that? To cash in of course...
I can't see any problem about the domain. Just develop a new and a good site or maybe that domain is perfect for blogging about careers of micheal...
I do not think that there's any issue with that domain, as the domain suggest that it is all about the careers of Michael Jackson...
We are in such a wonderful industry. The best are threads where some domainers are actually offended by public perception that domainers by and large cybersquatting blood suckers.
OP: Are you really going to make a great site? What benefit is it to you anyways? You're not going to make a lot of money with it anyways. It's like robbing a gumball machine at this point...
I find it amusing that the ones actually asking if "ObviousTrademark.ext" or the like is likely to cause them problems... only to start getting upset when told the truth..
It then becomes obvious why the general perception of this entire industry is what it is...
This industry is no different from any other industry, don't delude yourself. Industry = Capatalism = Making money = F***ing someone over at some point along the lines.
Making money is not a pretty business, it just so happens that the point of entry to this particular business is around $8..

Christ's Authority and the Finality of Faith (Matthew 8:5-13)
Sometimes those nearest to the external blessings of the gospel are the farthest off from genuine faith. So it was with the Jewish nation, though God's intention was for the salvation of the nations, it was first to the Jews. Yet, despite the consistent display of Christ Authority, His Deity, it was not those nearest the promises who believed, but the faith of the Gentiles that exalted Christ authority. It is this we will see in our Lord's encounter this morning: 3 Reasons to take seriously the Authority of Christ and the Finality of Faith, since eternity is real: (1) (B/C) Christ's Authority should produce humble faith; (2) (B/C) Faith in Christ's Authority determines eternal destiny; (3) (B/C)Christ's Authority is decisively confirmed

Sanzaru Games Race #2 to be a very busy weekend
80 Masters to be Round #2 Feature Race
Race #2 of the Sanzaru Games Karting Championship Series is looking to be a very busy race weekend. In addition to the regular Rotax and shifter class, some schedule adjustments have been made to accommodate Micro/Mini Swift and X30 Tag karts for this one race. With the SKUSA Spring Nationals set to run at the Simraceway International two weeks after Race #2, a number of SKUSA drivers have asked to join Sanzaru's Race #2 to get some track time. Thus some changes have been made to the normal Sanzaru Race Day schedule to allow a number of SKUSA drivers to run Race #2. See the schedules for Saturday Practice and Sunday Race Day on the Sanzaru website for details. The track configuration for this race will also be changing, again, to the Reverse PRO National. Sorry for this last minute change. The featured class for this race will be 80 Masters.
Adding the Micro/Mini Swifts, X30 Tags and SKUSA shifters to the program is for this event only. SKUSA karts can run their normal VP fuel and Evinco tires but there will be no VP fuel and Evinco tires available for sale at the track, thus SKUSA drivers must provide their own VP fuel and Evinco tires. ERC fuel and Hoosier and Vega Purple tires will be available for sale at the track. For Both Pro Stock Honda and Stock Honda Masters, karts can run either ERC or VP fuel and also can run on Evinco, Hoosier R60A or MaxOne by Vega Purple tires for this one race only.
Kid Karts will start their 2017 Sanzaru season at Race #2, running on the Saturday program. This season, the Kid Karts will be running for a championship where it was an exhibition class in 2016. Kid Karts will be using the Honda 4 cycle Kid Kart engine this season with a reported 8 karts showing up at winter testing days.
Based on the turnout for Race #1, the Rotax classes are promising to be competitive with strong turnouts in almost all classes. Junior Rotax looks to be the most exciting class in 2017 with 15 entries last race. Micro Max also has a strong and competitive class in 2017 with 11 drivers at Race #1. With ten drivers in both Senior Rotax and Rotax Masters, these senior classes had very strong and competitive races at Race #1.
The 125 shifter classes had a combined 11 drivers at Race #1, the largest field in some time. With a few SKUSA drivers joining the fun this coming weekend, this class should prove to be an exciting race to watch.
80 Masters had a very good turnout of 9 drivers at Race #1 with 3 regular drivers absent and expected to be there this weekend. This Norcal favorite class should not disappoint this weekend when it lines up as the Featured Class at the end of the Sunday race program.
The race weekend will start with a Practice day on Saturday. All classes will be able to get in as many as seven practice sessions during the day. Practice starts at 8:30 AM and runs to 6:00 PM. Registration will open at 7:30 AM. Practice is open to all drivers who are up to normal racing speeds with a kart that meets current karting safety specifications. Cost is $60 for Practice only. Kid Karts cost is $50, transponder included.
Sunday's race day begins at 8:10 AM with a quick round of practice for the nine race groups followed by a five lap group Qualifying session, two eight lap Pre-Mains and a 15 lap Main. Registration will open at 7:00 AM. Race Entry is $110, $15 for transponder rental if needed, $10 for all crew and spectators, and kids under 12 years old are $5. Registration is at the old administration building on the right side as you enter Sonoma Raceway, look for the Sanzaru Games Registration sign.

Ken Blackwell says General Casey should be demoted for worrying more about the death of diversity at Fort Hood than the 14 murder victims. A great video about the global warming hoax. Then, a judge expands social security benefits those who were conceived after the death of the parent. So, shouldn't taxpayers have the right to Conjugal visits?

Pack-to-School: Loaded Down for Dorm Drop OffArticle posted on Sunday, August, 26th, 2012 at 2:24 pm by Dr. Nancy Berk (No comments)

It's that time again—back-to-school spending, scrambling and strategizing. And for those families who traded in their minivans, move-in logistics can be challenging.
College may be a perfect fit, but can you fit everything your child needs (or you think he needs!) into the car and his dorm room?
New York Times' columnist Alina Tugend wrote about back-to-college spending sprees and the move-in frenzy and gave me the opportunity to offer my two cents.

The UK Athletics head coach, Charles van Commenee, admits it is almost impossible to replicate the atmosphere home athletes will face at this summer's Olympics in London. But around 150 Games hopefuls will nevertheless get a first competitive taste of the Olympic Stadium when they compete alongside this weekend's British Universities & Colleges Sport (BUCS) championships.
The likes of European heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis, world champions Mo Farah (5,000 metres) and Dai Greene (400m hurdles) and Olympic champion Christine Ohuruogu have opted not to compete, but local favourite Perri Shakes-Drayton and pole vault star Holly Bleasdale will take part in the event.
Although a number of smaller events have used the stadium in a limited capacity, this weekend will be the first time the stadium will be open to the general public for an athletics competition.
And although a capacity crowd of 80,000 will have to wait until the Games in July and August, the thousands of tickets made available were quickly snapped up by BUCS members.
Track athletes and those competing in the vertical jumps will contend stand-alone UKA events, while horizontal jumpers and throws athletes will participate in the BUCS competition fields.
Van Commenee said: "Preparing our athletes for what to expect when they walk into the Olympic Stadium at Games time is almost impossible. The noise of an Olympic Stadium when a home favourite walks out just cannot be replicated. This test event will form an important part of some athletes' preparation.
"At this event they will get the chance to familiarise themselves with the Olympic Stadium and we can remove a number of unknown factors for them. We are looking forward to our first experience in the magnificent Olympic Stadium."
Despite such an opportunity, Ennis has long maintained that she wants to keep the stadium "special" and has turned down numerous opportunities to see it since an early visit.
"There was no track, the stadium was just at the early stage of being built when I went in so that didn't really count," the former world heptathlon and pentathlon champion said.
"I've been outside the stadium filming for a sponsor but I didn't go in then and I won't now. I don't want to keep going in the Olympic Stadium all the time, I want it to be special. When I'm in the team and I'm there competing, that will be the time to take it all in. I don't want it to be really familiar."

Social inequalities
Social inequalities
Cnesco's report tends to show that social inequalities at school take on numerous forms. It can be inequalities in the treatment of the learning resources students genuinely have access to at school, inequalities in their academic results, social inequalities in their course of choices, in their diplomas and even in the efficiency of these latters on the employment market.
School inherits family inequalities but also produces social inequalities at each step of its organization. They have numerous forms and tend to add up and strengthen along the academic process.
To remember
- France is one of the OECD countries where the level of socially disadvantaged students has been decreasing the most between 2003 and 2012.
- When 4 hours of French class a week are scheduled in 9th grade the actual teaching time is 2h30 in education priority zone (ZEP), 2h45 out of the education priority zone and 3 hours in private schools.
- One third of the students declare feeling insecure in their middle-schools when they are in education priority zone (ZEP).
