The purpose of studying dialogue modelling and dialogue management is to provide models allowing us to explore how language, and especially spoken dialogue, is used in different activities. This thesis shows how issues (modelled semantically as questions) in general can be used as a basis for dialogue management. In an abstract sense, the goal of all practical dialogue is to communicate information which is useful in some activity. This means that conversational goals should describe missing information, and to fulfil a conversational goal, what we need to do is to communicate the missing information. Issues, or questions, are essentially entities specifying certain pieces of as-yet-unavailable information. That is, conversational goals can to a large extent be modelled as questions. The exploration of issue-based dialogue management in this thesis proceeds both on a theoretical and a practical implementation level. The thesis first explores basic issuebased dialogue management and implement a basic system illustrating the use of issuebased dialogue management. In the following chapters, this simple system is extended to

The Oakland Athletics have rearranged their front office somewhat, although the personnel has not changed.
The A's promoted Billy Beane to vice president of baseball operations, and they named David Forst general manager, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Monday.
Forst served as Beane's assistant the past 12 years, and he has been with the A's for 16 years.
This move has been in the works for a while, according to the Chronicle, and it's unclear whether the change in titles will have any effect on how the A's go about their business or make decisions.
Beane apparently will still have the final say on major moves.

Recently, I've been thinking about movies based on books. I love books (I'm a librarian), but I also love movies, and it has always bugged me when people say that "the book is always better than the movie.†Obviously it is true that there are a lot of crummy movie adaptations out there, but it seems to me that when people say that the book is better, they are mostly disappointed that the movie wasn't "faithful†enough to the book-—that it didn't live up to the image they had in their head when they read the book.
But for me, regardless of how "faithful†it is to the book, it is always interesting to see how movies use the visual medium to reinterpret or change books. Once you look at movie adaptations this way, you see that not only are there a lot of really good ones, but a lot of times even the bad ones have interesting things about them. I wrote a more thorough article about this for Young Adult Library services, but today, I want to show you what I mean by looking at one movie: The Vampire's Assistant, directed and co-written by Paul Weitz, and based on the Vampire Blood Trilogy (Cirque du Freak, The Vampire's Assistant, and Tunnels of Blood) of Darren Shan's 12-novel series, The Saga of Darren Shan, which is also known as the Cirque du Freak series. (Cirque du Freak was one of YALSA's 2005 Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults.)
For those who haven't read the books or seen the movie, here's the basic plot: Darren and his best friend Steve go to a freak show, where they encounter Larten Crepsley, a good vampire (he doesn't kill humans). Steve tries to convince Crepsley to make him a vampire, but for complicated reasons, Crepsley chooses to make Darren a half-vampire instead, against Darren's will. The rest of the trilogy follows Darren and Crepsley as Darren adjusts to being a half-vampire; at the same time Crepsley tracks an evil "Vampaneze†(a vampire who kills) named Murlough.
As far as I can tell, the movie wasn't very well liked (it didn't make much money and got bad reviews), but I was intrigued by it, both on its own, and for how it transformed the books. For one thing, only the plot of the first book is kept intact for the movie. The director, Weitz, jettisons most of the plots of the second and third novels, keeping only Darren's love interest, and the concept of a battle with a Vampaneze named Murlough. But more importantly, the whole tone of the movie is changed from the books' bewildered coming-of-vampire-age tale to a much more surreal, destiny-laden drama. While fans of the book probably disapproved of the movie being so different from the books, the question that I think is interesting is why the movie makes these changes. And the answer, I think, is that since the movie was made after Shan had written the entire Saga, Weitz was able to use themes that emerge over the course of all twelve books and reinterpret the beginning of the saga in light of these themes.
Let's look at one of the most obvious differences between the film and the first trilogy: the relative importance of Steve and Mr. Tiny. In the books, Mr. Tiny has a very small and mysterious role which just barely hints at his later importance (you'll notice I didn't even mention him in my summary above). Similarly, Steve has only a very brief scene in the second book, and is gone entirely from book 3. When Steve does reappear in book 8, though, he takes on huge significance. As the Lord of the Vampaneze, he is Darren's primary adversary, and in the last book of the series, it is finally revealed that Steve and Darren are brothers, both fathered by Mr. Tiny. It is also revealed that Mr. Tiny has been orchestrating their conflict, and in fact the entire plot of the series. The events of the series then begin to fall into place as the pieces of a conflict between two brothers and their father.
Reading the Vampire Blood Trilogy, you'd never get a hint of any of this, but Weitz makes some ingenious changes in the film to foreground this theme of family conflict, without giving away the major plot surprises.
First, he completely changes the adults in Darren's and Steve's lives. In the novel, the boys have a teacher named Mr. Dalton, who is a clear father figure for Steve, his favorite teacher, and a figure of respect for all his students. Similarly, Darren's parents are clearly loving, attentive parents. In the film, however, Mr. Dalton is turned into just another preachy adult, whose righteousness over freak shows is shown to be hypocrisy once he actually encounters a "freak.†Darren's parents, meanwhile, are shown to be ineffectual drudges, insisting that Darren must pursue "college, career, family†(a mantra repeated over and over as the film spirals into a fabulous montage of Darren's life slipping away from him).
By effectively eliminating the adult humans as role models, the movie emphasizes the choice that the boys must make between their true father, Mr. Tiny, and their surrogate father, Crepsley. Steve, rejected for his bad blood by Crepsley, turns to Mr. Tiny, and becomes a Vampaneze. Darren, who is recruited by Mr. Tiny immediately after his blooding, rejects him in favor of Mr. Crepsley, who is given a number of chances (invented for the film) to express his concern for Darren and his loneliness without him.
All of these changes come together in the second half of the film, which is largely original to the screenwriters. Murlough–the major villain of book 3–is shown to be a stooge to Mr. Tiny, with Steve as the real villain, setting up a battle (unbeknownst to the reader) between brothers, over whether to follow their blood (Mr. Tiny) or their consciences (Mr. Crepsley). This battle is made explicit by Darren's girlfriend's words: "it's not what you are, it's who you are,†which Darren and viewers who have not read the rest of the series can interpret in terms of Darren's reluctance to be a full vampire, but which in terms of the family drama clearly means that the boys can choose to follow their consciences ("who they areâ€) rather than their blood ("what they areâ€).
I don't know for sure, but it doesn't seem from reading the books that Shan knew exactly where he was going when he wrote the first trilogy, so it is all the more interesting that Weitz was able to mine the details from those three books, reinterpret them, and bring out these latent meanings.
So that's what I mean about the ways movie adaptations can interpret books: there is no need to be faithful to the exact plot and tone of the book to create an interesting movie based on the same material, and in this case, changing the plot and tone can even help the viewer to see aspects of the books that they might not have noticed before. I hope to write a few more posts on this topic on other movies, so let me know what you think.

I have the right badges for frost WL tiger build. Just seems like few classes benefit from bracelet as much as Sin does, was expecting more from bracelet tbh. Only thing I'm really missing on WL is bt earring, which is significant. And Raven would be better for bracelet, for sure, but that's not gonna happen until my Sin gets Aransu, and he still needs Undying badge fusion (tomorrow YAY!!!!!!), and vt mystic badge.
My point was not that there should be a cutoff at Rift/Dawn, but rather than people can benefit more from rift than from bracelet, and don't need rng drops or ridiculous amounts of time spamming dungeon to get it. Lets not confuse good gearing advice with knee jerk f8 bs. I think my point for NS is not so much that it can't be cleared with low ap parties, but that it takes considerably longer, and when you and most ppl in there are spamming 200x it adds up. Getting dps up should be a priority over farming bracelet, but that's my opinion. 80k would be fine for IF, and if you have a decent party and can contribute with poison and ss mechs then EL should ok too as long as you go with understanding teammates. But yeah, respect the dungeon, I agree. I tended to be really conservative when joining pugs too, but sometimes I think I held back a bit too much. But... what is holding you back from upgrading your weapon on FM?
This. No question running NS 200x is tedious at best and soul draining at worst, but lets face it, this is a Korean MMO, the grind is the game - the journey is the destination :Kappa: On the other hand, running NS with 5 other ppl who's max damage is under 25k dps is frustrating and painful. If everyone farming bracelets had at least rift/dawn 3, a proper SS set (preferably BT arrangements in accordance with their class) and learned their rotation by spending a little time in f12 practicing, clear times are much faster. Weapon, elemental earring, BT accessories and soulshields, get your soul to stage 6 minimum. Its no longer required to whale or no-life to get Rift/Dawn and a few accessories, just make a list of well chosen priorities and go after one at a time. I've had bracelet on my sin main for a quite a while, but just two weeks ago I farmed bracelet for my WL alt. 190 runs (hand crit 1x, only saw 1 dragon drop, i wanted tiger). I had Rift 3, which btw took me approx 6 weeks of casual play and no swiping from reach lvl 50 (1-2hr 3-4x per week - don't play my alt daily) - events were helpful for soul & weapon upgrades (elements and offerings from thanksgiving box, low empy price from rng box event). Bt ring stg 6, xanos earring, stg 6 soul, and bt 8-set SS, getting me around 50k dps before bracelet. Around half the runs were smooth - at least one or two whales to burn down bosses. The other half were plebs like me and much worse. Maybe half of those runs everyone in pty except me had bale / seraph with pineapple accessories and wtf SS. On a few occasions we even managed to wipe repeatedly on boss 1 enrage. When 50k is max dps by 2x in NS it's not a good sign... And frankly at stg 10 bracelet is barely giving me a boost. After Sin bracelet proc this is a huge disappointment.
Hongmoon Skills -> The PvE way
cibacrome replied to Grimstar's topic in General DiscussionAgreed- I despise PvP and really am bothered by the PvP gate for skills and mats. Luckily I leveled my main before this got cucked into oblivion... but my alts are starving for HM skills. Duelists bundle is probably the best alternative rn, but limited to just a couple of transactions. NCSoft/West really needs to address HM skills and moonstones. While I understand their desire to reward PvP players, it's clear that PvP just is not that popular a game mode in the West, and too many players are being left with no alternatives, where there used to be plenty.
Launch-up and Restraint Attack - Move them to Space Bar
cibacrome replied to Kozuki's topic in General DiscussionUm.. VT? How the hell are you supposed to jump over the bee's bombs if your spacebar is mapped to hook-kick or whatever? I do agree though, aerials should be able to be mapped to a different / unique key. My keyboard has no shortage of unmapped keys to choose from XD
Why is this a thing?
cibacrome replied to TheReefer's topic in General DiscussionIt's a thing because this is a Korean MMO, designed by Koreans, for players in Korea. Our markets are definitely secondary. Avg ping to server in Korea is below 7ms, it's a small country with VERY good internet infrastructure, as opposed to NA which is a large country with, at best, mediocre infrastructure and greedy as ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ISPs who don't give a shit about good routing because 99.9999999% of their users just send email, stream netflix or whatever. EU has it a bit better because it's smaller, but I think ISPs aren't too careful about routing there, either. TLDR: Koreans have no problem with ping.
Killing Xanos in normal mode?
cibacrome replied to YenNhi's topic in General DiscussionNS easy mode is not that hard, no real mechs required unless your party is extremely undergeared, and Xanos does not have a wipe mech like hard mode. Stunning granite titan and getting adds lined up for explosion mech, throwing spears for Agony will speed things up nicely tho, well worth doing. Plenty of guides to help with that. Yes, it will take a bit longer with an undergeared party, but AP is the least important statistic at that point. It's about gear, crit, crit dmg, elemental dmg. A 930AP Sin, for instance, with stg 10 bracelet and raven will seriously out DPS a 1000+AP sin with no bracelet and baleful. Elemental > crit / crit dmg > ap. Aransu > Raven > dawn/rift > bale/seraph. And don't even start with soulshields. I bet most ppl with 950+ that do trash level dps aren't infusing their SS with crit & accuracy to reach required minimums let alone ideas. Hell I see plenty 1000+ players with BT accessories, BT SS and well below 60+ crit. Then there's legendary ring and earring some use to boost ap... sigh. Much better off with elemental herioc earring & ring and lower ap.
Fallen Aransu School Raid
cibacrome replied to Shinki's topic in General DiscussionWe look at the thrall's movement to know if it's in or out first. Or eat stacks yummy. But yeah, 100% easier on my WL alt than my sin main, same with RK.
Weekly box loot ninja nerfed
cibacrome replied to ombremq's topic in General DiscussionAgreed - it's been 10 ss crystal bundles and random sacred crystal with maybe 1 ms crystal if I'm lucky... consistently since patch. It was random before, yes, but the rewards were consistently better. Could be small sample size, but damn it's consistently shit rng then.
Radiant Energy Exchange Update
cibacrome replied to Liinxy's topic in ArchiveSooooo... this is fantastic news. /s Radiant Energy have almost NEVER cost as low as 10g. Usually they are up near 20g, except during trove. How is 10g even a number that makes ANY sense? I could understand if you decided to make the trade a greater than 1:1 ratio, like 2 radiant = 1 powder, or 3 radiant = 1 powder blah blah blah but to antique them at WELL below market value is a huge middle finger ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ you to your player base. Radiant energy is a thing, like it or not. You put it in the game, it's been here all along, it's been used specifically for gems, and it's been sellable on the market this whole time. I get that you want to move to a new system, but ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ing everybody who has radiant energy is a shitty way to proceed. At the same time you are inflating the value of powders (and Mysterious Crystal) by making Radiant Energy, who's SOLE PURPOSE was gem transmutation, completely irrelevant to the process. This is... I'm sorry, there's no polite way to say it... idiotic. Unacceptable, on every level. I get that you initially undervalued / overvalued the formula, but now you're answer is to force all users to take below market rate for an item that was purchased with the SPECIFIC INTENT of transmuting or otherwise acquiring Hongmoon gems, and can't even be used for their originally intended purpose, and you're going to tell us that the day before you drop this change. Plus, I have lost trust in anything I buy or craft at this point, if you can just make it obsolete and WORTHLESS overnight. I've just about had it with this game, and it's not because I don't enjoy the gameplay, but NCSoft / NCWest's handling of the economy is... I have no words... that aren't obscene. I hope you realize how wrong this is.
Empyrean spirit charms cost way to much to make
cibacrome replied to Kneil's topic in General DiscussionYou've just highlighted the entire point if Korean MMOs lol: grind You need to consider if this genre is for you I guess. Anyhow, upgrades are easier, cheaper, and faster than they've ever been. It was never intended to be able to jump to Raven (true endgame) without considerable investment. Actually it's probably cheaper and faster to go Raven now than is was to get Baleful 1 way back when Silver Frost was endgame. So dig in and enjoy the grind, work on refining your farming and investment tactics to get you there faster. Or just Trove! :kappa:
OTP and support
cibacrome posted a topic in General DiscussionI use OTP (random 6 digit number using app on phone) in an effort to prevent hackers from gaining access to my account, which I have invested money and countless hours into developing. Imagine my surprise when I read threads on another well known BnS forum, complete with screencap evidence of email chains from BnS GMs, that not only is just an email with no proof required to REMOVE THE OTP, but hackers have been successful, on numerous occasions, in getting GMs to remove the OTP and even delete IP addresses of legitimate users. I completely understand the need to remove OTP, but it should be granted ONLY with verification of account using standard online security measures, like answer 5 security questions, or whatever. NCWest... how can you encourage people to use something to increase security, and then provide a loophole the size of North America for would-be thieves to jump through? PLEASE STAHP /bnstears PS: here is a link to GM email thread asking no follow up security questions to remove the OTP
[Suggestion]What about a new version of the premium membership?
cibacrome replied to Elano's topic in General DiscussionI just want to refresh this topic because now that new patch & Trove is out, it's just another glaring reminder of what a huge waste of RL money premium feels like right now. MSP SS and loggui keys have been removed from Dragon Trader, so one more obvious benefit gone. No daily dash, nothing in trove to support premium members. About the only thing worthwhile right now are upgrade discounts, but I'm so unimpressed with premium & NCSoft right now that I'm not spending a dime on trove keys. Unless something changes fast, I will not renew my annual when it expires.
Royal Dye exchange
cibacrome replied to Gman's topic in General DiscussionYes this was a MAJOR rip off. The trade value was a joke compared to the crafting cost. I mean I get having trade-ins that aren't full value, but this was just a big FU to players. Unfortunately I had a few of these in the pipeline as crafting was shut down, and I didn't want to stick anyone with an extinct item. Next time I'll make sure to rip some poor idiot off rather than expect NCWest to deal fairly.
Quartz. Do something. Please.
cibacrome replied to Lovey's topic in General DiscussionEasy fix: put 3-5 quartz per day free in HM store until crafting change and watch Chinese gold seller bot profits plummet. This happened because the demand was doubled (new oil recipe) and the supply cut severely by server consolidation. If they're not going to adjust the number of quartz mine-able per hour, then just give a percentage for free to control prices.
[outdated/old] Crafting Spreadsheet (profit/loss calc)
cibacrome replied to Genzzry's topic in General DiscussionHaven't had a chance to use the spreadsheet yet, but noticed two crafts I do daily are missing: empyrian charms (earthseers) and violet honey cookie (acquired taste). I'll try to test out the spreadsheet later tonight or tomorrow and maybe have some comments, but without those two crafts it's not entirely practical for me to use.
90g to mail gems between characters
cibacrome replied to wreckless's topic in General DiscussionThe ultimately frustrating part of this debacle is the idea the NCsoft is normalizing something between regions. Income in KR is orders of magnitude higher than here. In order to make these gem mailing fees 'normalized' or region matched NCsoft would have to correspondingly increase daily income the equivalent percentage so we in NA / EU are not spending a significantly higher portion of our possible daily income compared to other regions. Others have already thrown some numbers at this problem, all of which illustrate how unfair this actually is, even at 1/2 of Korea's fee, for players here. I can tell you exactly how this will affect me:. I will no longer be playing alts other than to use as crafting drones. I was spending a considerable amount of gold leveling 2 of my 3 alts, including some trove and rng boxes. Transferring gems was a crucial part of my game play to be able to get my alts in higher level dungeons and raids. I will no longer mail gems, and I will no longer develop my 3 alts, significantly reducing the amount of gold I put back in the game, and the amount of ncoin I buy.
Peaches Peaches Peaches!!!
cibacrome replied to Ichiro Minako's topic in General DiscussionIn the time you spent farming peaches for those extra 7 boxes you could have farmed more than enough gold for a brilliant sliverfrost key and had your weapon 100%.
Dunno what to do
cibacrome replied to Yatosama's topic in General DiscussionMy suggestion is to join a clan, preferably one that does runs together and helps lower geared players gear up. F8 can be cancer, but these days all the lower/ older dungeons are easily done via LFP rather than joining premade lobbies. Gearing up is cheap & quick, you should be able to get to the point where you can even do big 3 normal mode quite easily. If anybody bitches at you for joining their run via LFP, then they are complete morons and should be ignored / blacklisted lol. And by following storyline all the way to the end & recent events they're practically throwing gems & accessories at us (current one lets you get stg 10 elemental accessory upgrade for pinnacle via event fruit) TLDR: endgame dungeons are fun, high gear (not BT but most everything else) is cheap & quick to get, LFP is ezpz for all but big 3 & Naryu Sanctum.
Anyone else unable to buy keys?
cibacrome replied to SnugglesFairie's topic in General DiscussionYou really need to submit a support ticket if that's the case...
Celestial Basin boss grief
cibacrome replied to Wataru's topic in General DiscussionWhile I'm far from a whale, I have gotten a few special chests due to high burst with SB in my party - besides the chance at ginseng (which i didn't get in any of them) there's not that much difference. 1 hit and you get a regular chest, and mobs drop them (I've gotten 7 regular chests last 2 days farming peaches, not including boss drops). If you can't pay attention to the announcement that gives you 3 minute warning and make it to the boss 1 minute before it spawns with all the information out there, then sure, go ahead and ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ about it on the forum... But I do agree - the bosses should have more HP for this event so that ppl that come 30 seconds too late still have a chance. That, however, would reduce my chance at special boxes since I'm all burst and no sustain compared to real whales so nevermind... :P
Honorary Ornaments
cibacrome replied to Ketzs's topic in General DiscussionI don't get selling ornaments. I mean unless you're SO casual you won't ever upgrade there can never be enough ornies in one's inventory imho. Sacred oil, PSTS transmute (after patch), legendary accessories, it's never ending lol.
about soulshields and hongmoon skills, need your thought please
cibacrome replied to iCapsule's topic in Assassintomb = Desolate Tomb Ebon Citadel = Ebondrake Citadel MSP = Midnight Skypetal Plains
669ap WL First time EC & DT
cibacrome replied to LivingDeadGirl's topic in DungeonsCheck out BNS Academy (google it for website), join their discord channel, and join their excellent learning runs in their regional LFP, where it's completely ok to be new to the dungeon, and always ends up being lots of fun to run & learn, especially if you want to practice taking roles.
Feb 14 Client.exe not showing up again
cibacrome replied to Mantelis's topic in General DiscussionYup - everything that went wrong and caused them to 'hotfix' gameguard is back again with a vengeance. My list of problems in case anyone at NCWest gives a damn (and yeah, it's in a ticket too): - Inventory cursor bug - mouseclicks not registering - mouse click delay - mouse getting grabbed by BnS when trying to use other applications causing content to get destroyed because the only way to fix it is to forceclose app on which cursor got stuck - cursor getting stuck when re-entering BnS window focus, system stutters and freezes - mouse button mapping intermittently getting screwed up (Corsair Utility Engine - and i only map single keys like F & 4 to my side buttons, no macros) - fps reduction I'm seriously displeased with this move...

Yellow-billed Magpie
The Yellow-billed Magpie is a California endemic, living only in this state's Central Valley and coastal valleys. It enjoys oak woodlands, and is a popular bird among enthusiasts. It has been designated as Climate Endangered because it is projected to lose more than 60% of its climate suitability range by 2080.
Below is a map of its projected climate suitability breeding range now, and in 2050.

Abdullahi Ganduje has put an end to the recent crisis that hit the state's House of Assembly when some lawmakers resolved to impeach Speaker, Abdullahi Ata, and other principal officers due to incompetence.
According to a statement by the state's Commissioner of Information, Muhammad Garba, Governor Ganduje met with the warring factions on Tuesday, May 15, to reconcile them.
As a result of the success of the meeting, the Assembly complex was reopened on Thursday, May 17.
Garba said, "Following the reconciliation which brought the crisis to an end, the Assembly will reopen on Thursday to further consolidate the resolutions reached at the meeting.
"The reconciliation meeting was held late on Tuesday at the Government House between representatives of the two feuding factions and Governor Abdullahi Ganduje who intervened to resolve the crisis in the interest of peace and democratic development of the state. The meeting was held in a matured and responsible manner."
He was sworn in 10 months ago to replace former Speaker, Kabiru Rurum, who resigned following corruption allegations.

Razoo.com's Unique Take on March Madness may Break Previous Online Giving Record
Final Four Nonprofits in Razoo.com's March Goodness Tournament Raise the Stakes to Compete for $10K Grand Prize
By: Razoo Inc.
In 2009, Razoo.com launched March Goodness, an online giving competition inspired by college basketball's March Madness tournament. In its first year, Razoo's March Goodness competition successfully raised more than $162k for participating nonprofits by highlighting their causes and stories while inspiring thousands of individuals to engage in the online giving experience. This year the stakes are even higher: the total prize pot is more than $6,000 higher than last year and more than $214k has already been raised, breaking last year's level of giving.
For the 4 nonprofits in the final round of the competition this year, there is still a last-day push to spread the word about their cause and to engage existing and potential new donors in their efforts. As the tournament races towards its finish at midnight (Eastern time) on April 6th, MinnPost and endPoverty.org are in the lead, vying for the top position. MinnPost, for example, shared that they would be calling on their top donors to secure the lead. But donations can come in at the last minute, which still gives Helping Paws of Minnesota and the Akilah Institute for Women a chance to come from behind and win the tournament. Collectively, these finalists, through their outreach, fundraising, and inspiring stories on Razoo.com have raised more than $45k in just the last 3 days of the competition, fueling the spirit of giving in their communities and across the country.
As the clock is winding down it has been a flurry of dedicated volunteers on the phone, messages being sent and posted on the web, and friends calling on each other for support for a cause they believe in the most. These last couple hours of madness will tell who will become our next March Goodness Tournament Champion.
To learn more, watch videos highlighting the mission and efforts of each of Razoo's Final Four nonprofits on www.marchgoodness.com.

For the uninitiated, the D.C. summer can be brutal – think excessive sweating and scurrying from one air-conditioned place to the next. But, with the heat also comes one of our favorite activities, entertaining friends and family. Because there are few better than getting a group of your favorite people together for good food and drinks on a warm summer day, and one person who also understands the joys that can come with entertaining this summer is Jaclyn Smith. Partnering with Kmart, she has helped design an outdoor living collection that is full of elegant and timeless pieces that will be sure to impress your guests and be useful for entertaining the entire year-round. To help you in planning your next summer fête, Jaclyn shared a few of her favorite on the dime tips for summer entertaining that are bound to make a splash at your next event!
1. Collect bright and bold colored throw pillows. Throw pillows add the perfect pop of color to any occasion without spending a fortune.
2. Don't throw away your old dining set, rather repurpose a few chairs with a new coat of paint and create additional seating for guests.
3. A successful trick for fighting those flies and mosquitoes is to cut lemons in half, put several cloves in the lemons and put them in strategic places.
4. Potted roses in clay pots are beautiful for your outdoor table. It's economical and you can later plant them in your garden. Daisies and hydrangeas also look beautiful in clay pots for your table. Gardenias add a lovely scent. Tie ribbons around clay pots for added color.
5. Use layers of colorful table clothes, some round, some square so all the colors show. When you're blending into nature anything goes.
6. Use colorful grosgrain ribbons to tie your flatware and napkins together.
7. Take an area rug outside to your patio.
And when asked what tricks she uses to host a flawless get-together, Jaclyn shared the following six tips that will guarantee your next party goes off without a hitch!
1. Always prepare your dishes in advance. The best part of a get-together is spending time with friends and family. By having dishes prepared in advance you are able to enjoy more quality time with your guest.
2. Having a theme in mind will make the decorations and menu fall easily into place.
3. Use your own china and glass wear. I love the way white dishware looks mixed with colorful plates. Use flatware at your outdoor table instead of plastic. Plastic breaks with BBQ chicken.
4. As a host, it's important to serve your guests their first beverage. After that, have a bar area set up so your guests are able to refill their glasses as needed without having to worry about who needs their drink topped off. I like using decorative trays to organize the bar area.
5. Turn off the harsh outdoor lighting. Use candles, patio lights and paper lanterns.
6. Music is so important to a party, so carefully choose your selections depending on your guests and the type of party. Music creates the mood.
So, don't let the D.C. summer heat get you down, with these fun and easy tips you will be the host/hostess with the most. And for more tips from Jaclyn make sure to follow her and check out her page at http://www.shopyourway.com/JaclynSmith, as well as her outdoor living line with Kmart.

Here are my favourite shots from this year in no particular order
A couple of years ago I embarked on a journey with the intent to document the small collection of cameras I had, as more or less a personal project. As I progressed the collection grew and the end of the process rather than getting closer seemed to extend into the distance. In the last few months I have reached a point where I don't feel I have to complete this exercise and I have reduced my collection down to the ones I want to keep and use and am slowly selling off those that don't meet my criteria of Voigtländer or beautiful or useful.
So I now have before me (and upon me) a struggle to change the way I shoot and write. For me "struggle" appears to be the right word. I seem to have slipped into a process of shooting purely to test the particular camera I was using and less so looking for really good images that I would be proud of. That is not to say that I didn't take good pictures I am quite happy with a lot that I have taken over the last year or so. It is just now that I am back to taking photos for their own sake I feel like I have forgotten somewhat where I left off.
Continue reading "Transition from tester/reviewer back to Photographer"
I have no real idea why I bought this; it was completely on a whim. I have a perfectly good (better) digital camera that I love so this really is a mystery.
It happened in a kind of blur… I read a couple of reviews and then fatally checked out that auction site… some days later a package arrived on my doorstep.
Apart from my Nikonos underwater cameras I have never been a Nikon owner.
I guess what interested me about this camera was the look it has; very simple minimalist lines (a sleek black slightly round cube). Continue reading "Cameras: Nikon 1 V1"
Over the last few years I have enjoyed writing this blog and also posting my photos online, it feels good to share my thoughts and work. But all too easily one can get used to this kind of life with everything online and, apart from going out to take photos, not really mixing in the real world.
Even the going out and shooting for me for the most part is a solitary exercise. Of course I go on trips and visits with my Fiancee and I take photos, but even then it's usually me taking my pictures and other times it is just me doing a photo walk.
So recently I have been actively seeking out opportunities to meet and spend time with other photographers; real in the flesh people – I know, shocking. Continue reading "Stepping out"
I have read a few articles recently about photography styles and also had a couple of conversations about influences and what my photography is. It is something that lately I seem to struggle with and it relates to my current photography confusion.
One post I read suggested that to find your 'style' make a collection of all your favourite images by trolling the web then analyse any commonality. Where there are common themes, try to put some words describing what it is about those images and Hey Presto! you have you style.
This is interesting but I decided an amendment to this approach is to look at my own work and determine any common themes there first.
So I have scanned through the last 12 years of digital images in my archive and have indeed found some common themes. Continue reading "Themes and styles – a journey"
This year does not seem to be going as I expected/hoped it would. A combination of my daughter's surgery battle and wedding planning not to mention various DIY challenges have meant I haven't had time to think properly about this blog or progress the projects I intended. I've also been distracted by a couple of new acquisitions along the way.
The result of this has been patchy posting and posts which probably haven't entertained, informed or shined in any way.
Reviewer or creator?
This post is aimed mostly at the those of you who have collected a number of cameras and switch between them.
Here's the question;
If you could only keep one camera/lens combination which would it be?
Let's put a little detail behind that; say that for some reason (for example a cataclysmic event happens) you have to pack you bags and leave your home taking only one camera with you with no expectation of ever coming back. What would you choose and why? I'm assuming you already have loved ones and important things covered and in reality picking a camera might be the last thing on your mind, but anyway…
I have already narrowed down what I think is my favourite; 35mm rangefinder, 35mm SLR, Medium format, TLR and also my favourite digital but if I had to leave almost all my cameras behind I would be left with a difficult choice. Continue reading "Which would you save?"
This is the second installment of my series featuring different colours for each month; see first edition here.
Surprisingly (to me) I struggled with green this month as I tried to avoid just taking picture of plants and I couldn't find much of interest otherwise.
Here is my selection of green things; Continue reading "February is Green"
I think I am beyond help.
Just as I am saying I have enough cameras and I need to prune the collection; suddenly I am buying another camera and not even a Voigtländer.
Why do we do it? (Using "we" here in the hope that you there reading this are of the same disposition, please don't enlighten me if you are not and leave me to my blissful ignorance and happiness that I am not alone in this crazy pursuit.)
I just can't help myself, I can't resist an interesting camera at a reasonable price. And I just can't help looking either. Sometimes I try to kid myself that I'm only looking for specific cameras and that I am sticking to the one brand or a defined thing that I need yet I suddenly get and urge and 'DING' PayPal takes a hit.

I have been (over) thinking my photography lately and been reading a lot from (and about) other photographers.
As a result, based on my own experiences I have I have put together these 5 things to think about when taking and sharing photographs.
As I said this list comes from me sometimes overthinking things especially when I am at a popular location; here's how it goes…
So here you are at that classic landmark or location and you have your camera in your hand. You lift your hand, compose and snap! There you go, you now have an image of say, the Golden Gate Bridge, for example. Before you press that button though maybe you should ask yourself a question;
Why am I taking this picture? Continue reading "5 golden rules for photography"
I read a couple of articles recently that opened up on this question in one way or another. Many articles in the media of late refer to people who take pictures as photographers (usually it seems when they are doing something bad). Are all these people 'photographers'?
Camera use used to be limited to a narrow section of society that could be bothered with the highly technical operation of a this instrument and thus the term photographer referred to those people.
These days however, everyone (almost) has a camera that they use on a regular basis (in the form of a phone) and a huge number have a fairly sophisticated camera that they use on vacations etc. Do these people qualify to be called photographers? Is the term photographer a special tag for a certain type of camera user? Continue reading "What is a Photographer?"

A private family graveside service will be held at Chapel Hill Memorial Cemetery with Fr. Scott McCue and Fr. Chris Koehn presiding. The public is invited to view the service remotely by following the link . The link will become active at 11:00 am on Friday, March 27, 2020 https://livestream.com/accounts/29266864/frederickpalmdahl
CHAPEL HILL- Frederick Oscar Palmdahl, age 89, died on Tuesday, March 24, 2020 at Brookshire Nursing Facility.
Fred was born in 1930 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He joined the Navy after high school in 1948. While in the Navy he worked on some of the first computer systems designed for the military. He met his wife Kay in 1951 while on leave in Rhode Island. Since Fred was not a Catholic, on his next sea voyage, he was baptized in the Bay of Naples. Upon returning to the states he married Kay on February 23, 1952. Following his tour in the Navy, Fred worked for Sperry Rand and then IBM. He moved to Chapel Hill in 1959 as one of the first employees of the University's Computer department on the IBM 360 main frame. While working in the computer department, over many years he completed his undergraduate degree at UNC. He retired from UNC in 1993 and lived the remainder of his life in Chapel Hill.
Fred was a founding member of the St. Thomas More Catholic Church community. He was one of the earliest members of the Paul Trageser Council of the Knights of Columbus.
Fred and Kay did not have children, so they enjoyed spending time with the children of many of their friends. They loved German shepherd dogs and spent much of their free time camping.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to St. Thomas More Catholic Church, 940 Carmichael Street, Chapel Hill, NC 27514
The Palmdahl family is under the care of Hall-Wynne Funeral Service. Online condolences: www.hallwynne.com – select obituaries.

LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -- From smart phones to smart vacuums, technology is advancing everywhere, and that means more risk for hackers to sneak in.
A new boot camp in Las Vegas is teaching people to "be the hacker." The idea is learn what hackers are doing, in order to get ahead of them.
Clifford Richardson showed FOX5 a small computer that can tap into anything, if a hacker knows how to use it. He is the coordinator of the cyber security boot camp at the Desert Research Institute.
"It's possible to hack into anything," he said.
Recent hacks into home security cameras, even the City of Las Vegas, has put the importance of cyber security in the headlines.
"The reality is that the attacks get worse," Dan Manson said. Manson is a researcher at DRI.
Manson added Las Vegas and casinos specifically are attractive targets.
"We grew up loving technology, we can't live without it," he said. "But those who want to do us harm realize that and they turn it against us."
To "beat the bad guys," DRI is helping students hone their hacking skills.
"We need to know how to protect our systems, but that's not how we're trained," DRI Education Program Manager Meghan Collins said. "We had an incident where some software was downloaded from a drone and it got into our system. It created some problems. And that was what instigated our desire to teach the next generation of scientists."
That's why DRI is giving 15 college students across the valley control of the computers.
"Banging our head against the wall and really trying to figure out what we're doing is honestly the best way to learn," UNLV student Alira Coffman said. "Even now days, we're allowing a lot more technology into our homes and that's allowing a lot more ability for people to be in our homes as well. My group talked about the security camera hacks where people were talking to children through something we allowed in our home to protect us. It wasn't doing its job so I think companies really need to start thinking about security, but so do consumers."
In Las Vegas there are more than 2,000 openings and not enough workers to fill those jobs and protect the valley's data.
"We need to develop the good guys so that they can hold their own against the bad guys," Manson said. "The bad guys have a passion to do bad. We need the good guys to have as much passion to be the protectors."
This is DRI's first year holding this boot camp.

It's cold and comfort food is needed. It can be hard to keep traditional "comfort" food healthy but it's easily done with this recipe. Shrimp and pasta go so well together and it cooks so quickly. It's basically a one pan meal. Substituting whole grain pasta for regular pasta makes a big difference too. They taste the same and you are getting a full serving of whole grains. #winwin ? I added some leeks and artichoke hearts for a great flavor but it kept the calories wayyy down. If you haven't experimented with leeks yet, you should. They have a great taste but not as strong as an onion would. I love to add them to my mashed potatoes too. To finish this dish off I added a splash of white wine and some garlic. There you have a delicious and super quick meal to put on the table. I like to make this during the week because honestly it takes less than 30 mins too cook. Can't complain there? Things get very busy during the week for most of us and trying to put together a healthy meal quickly is a challenge. One pan meals are my favorite for this reason. Delicious, healthy, and easy. Boom! I used Pyrenees Agour cheese to top it off because what's a pasta dish without a little cheese on top ? It has a slight nutty flavor to it and it's nice to change things up every now and then from the usual parmesan.
- 1 box Whole Grain Linguine Pasta. I like Barilla or Ronzoni brand
- 1 6oz jar artichoke hearts
- 2 tbsp garlic chopped, I love garlic so I always use more so go by your preference
- 1 leek (green part only) sliced in half and chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 a pound to 1 pound of shrimp, depending on preference
- 1/2 cup dry white wine. I like to use Sauvignon Blanc but Pinot Grigio works too
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- Pyrenees Agour cheese (parmesan works too) shredded to about 1/2 cup
- Salt & Pepper
- Cook pasta according to directions and set aside
- Add oil to a cast iron skillet (or any other deep pan) for a good coating and let it heat up on medium-high.
- Add chopped leek and garlic to sauté for a few minutes until soft and fragrant.
- Add in artichoke hearts and sauté for another minute or two.
- Pour in 1/2 cup white wine and let it simmer to cook off the alcohol. This takes about 4 minutes. Pour yourself a glass in the meantime 😉
- Toss in shrimp to cook until light pink. Shrimp cook very quickly so keep an eye on it!
- Add a pinch of salt and pepper
- Turn heat down off and add the unsalted butter to the middle to thicken up the sauce and give it that wonderful flavor only butter can do 🙂 You can skip this if you want to cut the calories
- Toss in pasta and half of the fresh parsley
- Top off with half the cheese
- Use the remainder of cheese (or add more if you like) and parsley as a garnish. Enjoy!

PRETORIA– The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has a new electronic cargo tracking system which monitors the movement of cargoes coming into and leaving the country.
The paperless cargo reporting system brings to an end one of the last remaining paper-based processes in the SARS. The
Chief Officer of Customs and Excise of the SARS, Teboho Mokoena, said Momday that the electronic reporting system will expedite the processing of legitimate trade and improve the management of risk for goods coming in and leaving the country.
Clients of the Customs service impacted by the new electronic reporting system include shipping lines, airlines, the national rail carrier, road haulers, freight forwarders, port and airport authorities, terminal operators, wharf operators, transit shed operators, licensees of depots and registered agents.
One of the benefits to trade of electronic cargo reporting is that it will save on costs involved in paper reporting. For example, carriers can spend hundreds of thousands of rand a year just in the paper and administrative costs associated with submitting paper manifests to SARS offices.
The impact on land clients will be minimal, as most road carriers have already been submitting electronic reports since the manifest processing system (MPR) was introduced in 2016. However, for many sea and air modality clients, who have never submitted electronic reports before, the implementation may take more time to get used to.
In addition, South Africa will be following international trends with the introduction of advanced reporting of containerised cargo destined for South African ports. This reporting requires carriers and forwarders to submit advance loading notices to SARS Customs at both master and house bill of lading levels, 24 hours prior to vessel departure.

Pacific Brain Health's Cognitive Fitness (CogFit) Studio was featured in the Santa Monica Star, October 2019. The Physical & Cognitive Health Program is one of the many programs that the Pacific Brain Health Center offers to improve cognitive function in healthy older adults and furthermore in individuals with memory complaints, mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Read the full article below.
Cognitive Fitness Studio at Pacific Brain Health Center
Imagine that when you went to visit your doctor, instead of prescribing a long list of medications with hefty side-effects to help your brain health condition, you got a prescription for an exercise class.
This is now becoming a reality, as physical activity interventions are becoming a well- established non-pharmacological, non-invasive, affordable and low-risk option for the treatment and management of almost all late-life mood and cognitive disorders.
This summer, the Pacific Brain Health Center (PBHC) in partnership with Providence Saint John's Health Center opened an exercise Cognitive Fitness Studio, the CogFit Studio, which is designed first and foremost to train your brain and improve the overall health of your body and your brain. This innovative "brain gym" combines physical activity and cognitive stimulation with the focus of improving a patient's cognition in a program developed from David Merrill, MD, PhD, PBHC Director and my own cognitive psychology research.
The Science behind CogFit
Previous clinical research has shown that the combination of different types of physical and mental training techniques, has the ability to improve and restore compromised brain functioning better than singular training modalities alone, such as only aerobic exercise or neurocognitive skills training.
In our pilot study, called the "Simultaneous Aerobic and Memory Training (SIM) study, we tested the theory that simultaneously combining aerobic and mental exercise helps people's brain function better. In the study, a test group engaged in aerobic exercise on a stationary bike as they learned cognitive skills, while a control group learned the cognitive skills after the aerobic exercise. The result? After 4 weeks of training the participants in the test group showed greater improvements in memory performance than the control group, showing that the SIM intervention delivers benefit that is greater than the sum of its parts.
What happens during a CogFit class?
At CogFit, each unique session is designed primarily to simultaneously train reasoning, attention and memory through a technology-enhanced physical movement circuit style class.
Patients are paired one-on-one with a CogFit coach for personal brain training sessions or in a small, group-based class for a mental and physical 50-minute exercise class that includes circuit stations focused on cardiovascular, resistance, motor skill and mindful movement training. Within each station, patients will typically be doing a physically demanding task (e.g., riding an exercise bike), while also doing a cognitive task (e.g., counting backwards by 3s).
Training sessions at the CogFit Studio are still in beta-testing and only for patients seeking clinical care at the PBHC. If you are interested in being a volunteer for beta-testing and becoming a patient at PBHC, please contact CogFit class instructor Lesley Bell, NSCA-CPT, who works hand-in-hand with PBHC patients to deliver this leading edge cognitive fitness programming.
Pacific Neuroscience Brain Health Center
We strive to help people improve their overall physical and mental health through our Physical & Cognitive Health Program at the Pacific Brain Health Center. We provide a comprehensive approach to care in order to optimize cognitive fitness.

Sarah McEwen, PhD, is a cognitive psychologist and is Director of Research & Programming at the Pacific Brain Health Center. She has a passion for the development and implementation of novel physical exercise and cognitive training programs for aging populations looking to improve their overall brain health and maintain functional independence.

The remains of an infant found in late March stuffed inside a "box" and submerged in a waterway east of Woodland had been there for as few as six months or as much as a year, officials reported Wednesday.
A forensic anthropologist studied the remains discovered March 29 by a Rio Linda fisherman and reached the determination, according to Robert LaBrash, Yolo County coroner.
DNA will now be studied to determine the sex and possible age of the infant, LaBrash reported. That information should be available sometime within the next month.
The body was discovered by fisherman Brian Roller on the southern bank of the Conway slough, several miles east of Woodland on County Road 22 while he was using a bow and arrows to fish for carp.
Roller shot at a fish and missed. The arrow, however, continued into the bottom of the slough where it struck a "box." The box was pulled up and after Roller saw what was inside he notified the Yolo County Sheriff Department.
The description of the box is being withheld by officials to assist in their investigation.
LaBrash said the anthropologist also obtained other information on the child but that is being withheld as well.
At this time it is unknown if the child died of natural causes and was disposed of, or if it was murdered.
