Have you ever been tasked with a project and thought, "Where do we start?" or "How do I know when we are done?" These are two questions that software teams must be able to answer when trying to test their systems effectively. The other nagging question keeping software teams (and their management) up at night is, "Did we really test everything that is important?" I'm here to tell you that the odds are, you didn't….something was missed.
As the size and complexity of software applications continue to grow, our ability to execute test cases covering all possible scenarios is greatly hindered. Well-known computer scientist, C. A. R. Hoare was quoted once as saying, "There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult."
As users, we tend to tolerate software defects, until they have a serious impact on our lives or business. Take the recent example where a defect in the equity trading software produced by Knight Capital Group caused erroneous orders and trading errors that totaled $440 million. The story shows how much complexity can cost when high-risk defects are left untested.
So, the most important question to answer is, "What can we do about it?" Successful IT organizations are using risk-based testing to tackle the problem. The practice of risk-based testing requires a concerted amount of analysis, planning, and effort up front. The concept, however, is fairly straightforward.
Risk-based testing starts by clearly defining your requirements and maintaining their clarity throughout development. Changing requirements during the development cycle is like trying to hit a moving target. Once the requirements are in place, the software team can then define when the project is "complete". Defining "complete" is essential. Because once it is established, anything which deviates from that definition can then be tracked as a defect in the software. A risk-based approach prioritizes the tests of features and functions based on the probability of a defect occurring.
Risk can be assessed by asking the following questions of the functionality required:
- Which area is the core function of the application?
- Which module has weak programmers?
- Which module has ambiguous requirements?
- Which module is the most complex to develop?
- In which module is a new development tool or methodology introduced?
- Which modules must interface with systems outside the one being developed?
- Which module has less time to test? (Complexity vs. testing time ratios, etc.)
- Which functions or scenarios could result in "catastrophe" should a failure occur?
Risk-based testing involves identifying the most critical business functionalities within the application and determining their related vulnerabilities. The software team must engage system analysts with experience in the application area, to define those areas of risk so that effective test cases can be created and executed. By prioritizing the tests in this way, software teams can ensure that the most critical functions operate correctly, without failure. As systems, business, and operational costs continue to rise, software teams will need to develop solutions in shorter timeframes, without sacrificing quality. Risk-based testing is a winning strategy that helps balance time, quality, and the costs for software QA teams.

Hemp products have been used for hundreds of years, but FDA insists they are a new dietary ingredient. Huh? Action Alert!
We've been monitoring the FDA's treatment of CBD oil, a cheap, safe, and effective natural medicine for pain and other ailments. The agency has stated that CBD is not a supplement, and part of their justification is that it wasn't marketed as a dietary ingredient before 1994. Recent evidence has surfaced, however, that clearly shows cannabis was consumed as food for centuries in many different countries. But because of a technicality, it is unlikely that the FDA will consider this evidence that would allow CBD to remain on the market as a supplement—meaning that consumers will have to shell out $32,500 a year for CBD oil.

QR Codes in 11 lines of code? Easy. Let's look at how we can leverage some free APIs from Google to get flexible QR codes in your mobile apps.
Let's start off with the final product — a function we can call to create a Ti.UI.ImageView with a QR code in it:
See? 11 lines of code (excluding the comments at the top).
Now let's run through what the lines do.
- Line 1 and 11 make a function; we want to use reuse this code in multiple places in our code, so we stick it in a function.
- Line 2 creates the image URL that we will load. It is something particular to Google's Charts API. In particular, we set "chs" to the size of our QR code, and "chl" to the text we want encoded. Note how we encodeURI the text so that we have a valid URL!
- Line 3 uses some JavaScript trickery to split the "300×300" string in to the width and height. We'll use this to explicitly size our ImageView.
- Lines 4 through 7 ensure that our ImageView will size properly on Android by adding the "dp" (density independent pixels) unit on to our width and height.
- Lines 8 through 10 make our ImageView and return it! We leverage the ImageView's capability to download remote images to keep our code extraordinarily simple.
So how do you use it in your code? That's also very simple. Here's an example that you could drop in an app.js, along with the above createQRCodeImageView function:
Now you're off and running with QR codes! But I don't want to leave you with just that. I want to leave you with a challenge, too.
The "hardest part" of the above code was coming up with our URL and sticking it in an image view — and that wasn't very hard at all. But what if you want to cache the QR code locally so that the user can see it even when they aren't online? What's your first guess at how you'd implement this? Use the Ti.Network.HTTPClient? That would work. But there is a much easier way. Check out the below code sample; I want you to carefully read through it to understand how it works. You can do it!
Can you think of a better or simpler way? Hit me up in the comments, because I would love to know! Or [shameless plug] come to CODESTRONG and talk to me about your code in person [/shameless plug].

Simon Chadwick – Coffee with Simon | Ep. 017
Podcast: Play in new window | Download
Simon Chadwick is the Founder and Managing Partner of Cambiar Consulting. He and Sima Vasa discuss the shifts in the research industry and the Gen Z potential in the workplace. How different are they from the Millennials? Tune in.
"If we look in the news we are constantly reminded that this is a generation that thinks rather differently … it's much more about authenticity, much more about show me the evidence." – Simon Chadwick on gen Z's impact on the industry
Market Reseach Industry – Simon Chadwick
Simon is popularly known as the rockstar of the market research industry. According to him, the year 2013 saw the rise in investments in data and analytics. Billions of investments came since then.
But the past two to three years showed a precipitous collapse in the industry. This year is focused on the stabilization of coming investments.
Investments and Industry Shifts
Venture capital firms now have to focus on returning investments to tons of investors.
"They are just basically doubling down on their successes and not pouring new money in." – Simon Chadwick
Shifts in the industry are also taking place. In data collection, for example, we're seeing a combination of big data and passive metering. Job roles also have to be clearly defined in order to make things easier.
Generation Z in the Workplace
Every generation has its own stereotype. There's a generation of heroes, another of conformists, and of rebels. What potential does Gen Z hold?
"Gen Z is coming up as a hero generation." – Simon Chadwick
The oldest Gen Z member is most probably around 22 years old today. Having evidence to understand people and make a difference is a unique attribute that they typically possess. In the near future, the research industry can become their go-to workplace.

News Flash: Effective Learners Need to Possess Curiosity
How do we help our students become effective learners? Cultivating curiosity can be a big help; here's how you can do it.
As the new school year nears, we find ourselves wondering about the students that will sit before us. What's the best way to reach this new group? How much re-teaching will be needed during these first weeks? What's going on in the minds of these fresh faces with sun-kissed cheeks? If students were to actually answer that last inquiry, "We've got lots of questions too!" would be the perfect response! Skim any list of qualities of effective learners, and one characteristic they all have in common is curiosity. Whether the source is Faculty Focus, World Wide Learner, or Life Optimizer, curiosity always makes the cut. Effective learners will be those students that are able (and willing) to ask questions to clarify understanding, make connections, and delve deeper into concepts being studied.
So this begs the question, How do we help our students become effective learners? The first step is helping them develop their questioning ability. If we facilitate the concept of students becoming the reporters in their own educational journeys, we'll get them one step closer to becoming effective lifelong learners. Every good reporter knows that the 5Ws and an H questioning method will cover it all! Once they get down the Who?, What?, When?, Where?, Why?, and How? of asking questions, they'll be well on their way.
Who?- This may seem silly, but it's key to owning their learning and realizing that internal questioning is a great strategy as they cover new material or explore text on their own. Is this a question for my teacher or something I should be asking myself? Not understanding all the steps in a math problem? Check with your teacher. Wondering why a historical figure or fictional character behaved in a certain fashion? Ask yourself what you've learned about him/her so far that would drive such a decision.
What?- Taking the time to stop and think about what they're trying to process can be tricky, but it will help cut down on the blanket statement of frustration- I don't' get this! As teachers, we need to help them determine what they don't get. For example, if finding the area of rectangles isn't making sense, the better question to ask may be, What do length and width have to do with the area?
When?- The best time for a student to ask a question is when they're experiencing confusion or in need of clarification. We've all gotten a parent phone call or note saying a student didn't understand something. We need to make ourselves open and approachable for questions in the moment. If we can't answer the question right away, we have to make sure we touch base with the student before he/she heads out the door. Encourage students to jot down questions if the timing isn't right for asking in the moment. A question journal would be a great tool for an effective learner!
Where?- It would be ideal for students to ask questions in the classroom or learning environment where the questions occur. It can be hard to reestablish the train of thought that brought on the question in a crowded hallway between classes. This is where jotting down questions helps too. Questions that come up on homework or outside of class can be brought to you the next day or sent via an electronic method of your choosing.
Why?- Ensuring understanding and exploring topics through questioning will help students alleviate frustrations that can occur when things get difficult. Learning is both a challenging and rewarding journey. While the road may have its ups and downs, knowing the ins and outs of questioning will help fuel student curiosity and lead to success.
How?- With a smile is always in style! Students also need ask a question with a mindset that's set to work through the response. If they start out thinking they'll never get it, they probably won't. Students should be prepared to process an answer and apply it to a new concept or a new way of looking at a concept that is causing them difficulty. They should also be prepared to not always receive the answer, but rather make time to work through the suggestions given to find an answer on their own.
There's no cut and dried list for effective learners, but one quality rings true. Let curiosity capture your class! By developing students' questioning skills, we can work to cultivate effective learners. Any questions?

In business talking you should create interest by public speaking course can do to improve your communication skills. However, before your speaking engagement it is advisable to employ active listening and questioning to fully understand the are wrought with failures, though, the self-confidence will diminish.

I hear these two phrases far too often and it absolutely drives me crazy! What makes the matter worse is that I'm not talking about hearing it from children or teenagers who are aren't yet in control of their lives. I'm hearing it from my peers, people my own age and it's usually accompanied by a story about their unhappiness. They would love to be doing this or that, going here or there, learning something new, meeting new people but "they can't", or "they are just too busy". So, they resign themselves to unhappily doing the same thing day in and day out unwilling to sacrifice part of their day to work towards what it is they would rather be doing.
Instead of saying "I can't or I'm too busy" towards your dreams, goals and aspirations be honest with yourself and say, "I'm choosing not to!"

Pop up stores are a great way for retail outlets to make an impression on their customers by using a temporary store. Often, the retail design for these stores is unique, eye-catching and bold to ensure that customers are enticed to go in.
These types of stores are good for promotion and provide retailers with an opportunity to showcase new and upcoming products.
Those who would like to add a pop up store to their retail marketing strategy may wish to take note from some of the following fine examples:
Taking things to a new level is the retro101 mobile pop up shop. This store has been fitted into the interior of an old bus, which is fully operational and drives around the city of Indianapolis. This 'boutique on wheels' sells vintage clothing and perfectly ties in with the design of the bus.
The store also has online retailing capabilities, allowing customers that missed the miss to be able to purchase products on the web.
This is not just a regular pop up shop, but a semi-permanent shopping mall constructed out of shipping containers. Located in Christchurch, New Zealand, the Re:START complex was constructed after earthquakes devastated the area.
Currently, there are over 50 retailers located in the complex with this number expected to grow.
Featuring vibrant colours and unique designs, the Re:START complex offers its shoppers a pleasant experience in an area surrounded by destruction.
Nike's Pivot Point
Another fine example of a pop up store being used is sportswear giant Nike's Pivot Point store located in Brooklyn, New York.
This store was open during the Christmas period at the end of 2012, and was constructed to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Air Force One – one of the company's most popular products.
Here, customers were treated to a creative and futuristic design which showcased the brand's evolution over the years.

I have been recognized by many top managers for my outstanding sales production. Just in the first 3 months of 2015 I was honored by Keller Williams Westlake Village for achieving all production goals set for me by the management team of my office. To be celebrated in such a wonderful way by my management team and fellow agents was truly the most proud day in my career.
I realize there are many facets to being a Realtor. I make it a point to stay current on all technologies, keep my marketing skills at their best and know my demographics . However, being passionate about homes, and placing my clients wishes above all else is what brings out my character and makes me the Realtor/Broker that I am. Core values such as gratefulness, generosity, determination and honesty are what I strive for each day.
For a span of 24 + years I held positions in lending and customer service. I also held an incredible job with a major motion picture studio prior to my career in real estate. To this day much of my clientele is from the motion picture industry. I am a member of the California Association of Realtors and the National Association of Realtors. I have served on the KW Cares Committee. I am a Notary for the State of California. I have volunteered and supported the St. Baldrick's Fundraising Organization in the research to fight childhood cancers. At the close of my escrow transactions I donate 3% of my commission to the charity of my client's choice.
My husband Jeff and I make our home in Ventura County. We have been blessed with 3 fabulous grandkids and our baby Golden Retriever!. My other passions outside of real estate include auto racing, antiquing, and family time along the California coast.

At a Glance: Raja Ampat
Reef type:
Limestone rock islands similar to Palau, mangrove and granite islands. Walls, coral slopes, and patch reefs are terrific for all-around diving. Island topography, too, is varied.
Great, averaging 20 to 30m. On good days over 40m.
Not a real big issue. Some dive sites are more advanced than others.
What to Look For:
The best feature of these islands is their diversity. Over 3000 species of fishes and over 300 species of corals have been identified here. Seas from the Philippines, Maluku Islands, and Australia meet here to support an incredibly prolific and diverse assortment of marine life.
Travel Info
In addition to the non-stop fishes, there are oddities like Wobbegongs, giant clams, and a variety of critters. Strong currents are good for drift diving and isolated lagoons are great for muck diving. There are coral cays and granite islands with steep walls. Some areas have hundreds of rock islands similar to those in Palau. Others are surrounded by mangrove forests. This area is not to be missed.
Trips normally depart and return to Sorong on West Papua, a five hour flight from Jakarta or Bali. You may dive this area all year, part of the year to the south, part of the year to the north. Most boats base their schedule on the Komodo season so start their trips eastward in November and return in May or June. So most of the trips are scheduled in the winter time.
The best time to dive the Raja Ampat is March to May and August to November, although the season is from March until December. Rainfall is well distributed throughout the year. Water temperatures run from 26º-32ºC (82-94ºF) and are most often 28º-29ºC (86-88ºF).

ISLAMABAD – After the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) approval, Warid Telecom ready to launch 4G services in the country, PakistanTribe.com reported.
Warid was absent from the recently held auctions for 3G and 4G network licences where Mobilink, Telenor and Ufone won the 3G while Zong secured 4G with 3G licence.
Warid had previously already obtained a spectrum that would allow the roll-out of 4G. The company's existing licence, which was acquired in 2004, is also technology neutral but is not service neutral, which meant the company would have to share all details of its new services prior to their launch.
While Warid planned to launch 4G LTE (long-term evolution) to compete with the 3G/4G licence-holders, the PTA had insisted that the company needed permission from the regulator for the introduction of the new services.
According to the reports, Zong and other cellular companies have serious reservations over this decision by the PTA, as they paid heavily during the bid and also invested their time.
Reacting to the announcement, Zong held a press conference and lashed out at PTA's decision. While Zong would require at least a year to offer a complete new array of services to its customers, Warid could easily launch its service within months after the PTA's permission.
With more than 120million teledensity, Pakistan is considered technology hot-spot in Asia region.

The Holy Spirit in the Holy ScriptureFriday, October 13, 2006
Hans Hübner presented in his 1989 article, "The Holy Spirit in Holy Scripture" in The Ecumenical Review, an interesting look at the most significant aspects of biblical pneumatology. He studied the Holy Spirit from different parts of the New Testament with their relevant reference to the Old Testament: Luke 4:16 with Isaiah 61:1, Acts 2:16 with Joel 2 and Romans 8 with possible parallels in Ezekiel.
Luke 4:16ff – pneumatology and Christology
Luke 4:16-21 (ESV)
And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor." And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. And he began to say to them, "Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing."
Luke in his gospel states emphatically that in speaking of the Messiah, one must first speak of the Holy Spirit. In Luke, the Holy Spirit is tied to Christ. Where Christ is, what He says, what he does, there is the Holy Spirit. Jesus' existence according to Luke is a pneumatic existence.
Acts 2:16ff – pneumatology, ecclesiology and eschatology
Acts 2:16-21 (ESV)
But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel: "'And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; even on my male servants and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy. And I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; the sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day. And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.'
Luke in this second volume, Acts, presents the Spirit endowed church. The "epoch of the church" is that of the Holy Spirit as the chief protagonist in the church, especially in the church's missionary activity. The church, guided by the Holy Spirit, must primarily preach the Word. The Spirit opens up the universal perspective for the church: where the Spirit is at work, the church thinks on a worldwide basis.
Romans 8 – existence in the Holy Spirit
Romans 8:9-17 (ESV)
You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you. So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, "Abba! Father!" The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs--heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.
Romans 8 is the most important chapter of the epistle for Paul's pneumatology, where he talks about the existence of those who are justified as being in the sphere of the influence of the Spirit. When God does something with us as human beings, he does it through the Spirit, who is the strength and power of God in the sphere of history. The doctrine of the Spirit in Romans 8 is wholly integrated in the Pauline doctrine of justification; for Paul the doctrine of justification is the horizon of the doctrine of the Spirit, but the doctrine of the Spirit of the focus for the doctrine of justification.

From Thursday 16 August, Galway Bay Sailing Club hosts Ireland's national cruiser racing championships for the first time — and a significant turnout is expected from clubs all along the West Coast.
As David O'Brien writes in the Irish Times today here, the upcoming ICRA Cruiser Nationals are, as the association's Commodore Simon McGibney puts it, a "reminder of the resurgence of the sailing scene in the West".
McGibney — also of Foynes Yacht Club at the mouth of the Shannon — lobbied hard for Galway to host the event following the success of 2013's championships at Tralee Bay, which attracted a 61-strong fleet to the first Western-hosted nationals in ICRA history.
Indeed, nine of the 15 yacht clubs represented in this year's entry list is based in the West — and both the host club and Foynes will be sending 11 boats each.
Given that four-fifths of the cruiser fleet is based on the East Coast, and that the event faces competition from Calves Week among others, that's no mean feat.
Meanwhile, as smaller clubs like Garrykennedy and Mullaghmore are taking the opportunity to get noticed on the national scene, smaller boats will also be at the fore in Galway Bay next week.
Corby 25s, J24s and quarter tonners fill out a list of entries that includes the long-standing Class 1 champion Joker II, the J109 sailed by John Maybury who will be defending his title for the third year in a row.
Three other national titles will be decided along with the West of Ireland regionals which kick off what promises to be an exciting few days of racing from Wednesday 15 August
Sailing Instructions and class divisions are downloadable below.
The Nationals and the West Coast Championships are being held between the 15th and 18th of August and feature four days of action packed sailing and social events.
Captain Brian Sheridan from the Port of Galway has generously arranged free cranage and berthage for the duration of the event.
Class divisions in the fleet are expected shortly and will be posted on Afloat.ie
The ICRA National Championships Sailing Instructions are downloadable below as a PDF file

What to Do During Cultural Events
Cultural events provide great shows to their audience. Some events are all-day affairs wherein there is an existing program for the whole day. Some grand events last for three to five days. Other events occur once a week. No matter what type of cultural event you are attending, you should learn to be prepared during such events. Usually, the events are packed with people wanting to get everything that they can in the event. You do not want to go back to your house to get the things that you forgot and risk not seeing a show or not being a witness to some spectacular activities.
You have to be ready and prepared for these events. Here are things to bring when attending cultural events
If you have attended a cultural event before, you may have realized how expensive the food is inside the event venue. This is mainly because most people would not bother going out of the building just to eat. It is too time-consuming for you. It will also make you miss an activity or event if you go out to eat. But the problem with these food stalls is that the price of the food is not for the faint-hearted. To avoid spending too much on money, it is recommended that you use Parknshop 優惠碼 or Woolworths google mini promo code and bring food with you inside. But just a disclaimer here. Not all event security will allow food to bring inside the conferences. If they do not want you to bring food, we would suggest following the rules and regulations of the cultural event.
Wear Comfortable Clothes
If you are attending cultural events, chances are, you will be staying inside the venue for a long time. Even if the event has good ventilation, you will sweat it out inside because of the number of people present. You have to be prepared beforehand for these kinds of situations. You should wear comfortable clothes and even more comfortable footwear. Make sure that you can move comfortably in your wardrobe. The footwear must have enough cushion to accommodate your every movement inside the building. You can use the Sephora beauty box promo code or Jelmoli promo code to score some new apparel for your event.
A Big Bag
In these events, you are going to bring your wallet, a phone, a separate camera, and your souvenirs and other items that you purchase inside. Instead of bringing numerous bags with your hand, you can just put them all in one bag. The bag can give you more mobility and maneuverability because you do not have to constantly lift the separate bags simultaneously. You also do not have to worry that you will forget items that you carry because you are sure that you are carrying all of them inside your bag. If you do not have a bag yet, one store that you can go to is Catch. Use the catch coupon code to save money on your new bags.

The duelist is interested in winning, in maintaining honor. The professional (criminal) is interested in killing, as quickly and efficiently as possible. –Rory Miller
Friday evening BJJ in Bellevue.
White belt #1: "How's your knee doing?"
White belt #2: "It's a little better now, but yesterday I wrenched the &#^$ out of my elbow……"
Kitsune: "Welcome to Jiu Jitsu, where you repeatedly acquire a new injury before your previous injury has healed. You will never be healthy again."
To their credit, they seemed psyched by this instead of troubled. Those are the types that might stick it out.
Standup, judo grips. Take your foot on the side that you're gripping the LAPEL (and note that in this technique you want a deep, back-of-the-neck grip), and cross it so that you whack opponent's opposite shin with your instep. Stomp the foot to the floor between hir feet, turn, and jerk partner off balance with the gi grips. You are shoving hir down with the lapel grip and pulling hir toward you with a twist using the sleeve grip. (I love these takedowns that involve twisting the person so that the back of their shoulder is forced toward the floor.) Now kick your heel up (the same active foot that you were using before) and displace the leg. If your jerk was effective, the opponent's weight should be on that leg and s/he should go down as if poleaxed.
If this does not work, follow up by shoving opponent away from you while you use the same active foot to shoot out and inward-hook opponent's OTHER leg.
Ideally you want to have control of that knee as s/he lands on hir back. I had to ask Prof Herbert which grip to release in order to do that. You release the lapel grip and grab for the inside of the knee pantleg grip. I guess it was a good question, as he then chose to build upon the technique thusly:
Now that you have the person on the ground on hir back with one knee between your knees, and you have an elbow grip (on the outside) and a pantleg grip (inside of knee)….. donkey-kick that inside leg out and go to KOB.
Next: opponent turns in to you and pushes on your knee. Now armbar.
Chrisanne and I discovered that doing the takedown on one's stupid side- while not very much more difficult- resulted in the opponent having a MUCH harder time both staying balanced as well as being able to do anything helpful while falling. This would only be true of right-handed people, presumably. But the difference was marked enough that it would be reasonable to make a concerted effort to drill this on the dumb side.
One roll with Chrisanne and one with that flexible blue belt guy (I really need to remember his name….) I got a choke on him that he was very admiring of. Many people have been praising me a lot lately. It doesn't seem to be having any effect at all on my poor self-appraisal.

Students in Bangladesh have led a series of protests over road safety that have gripped the country.
The demonstrations were sparked when two schoolchildren died after getting hit by a speeding bus. Tens of thousands of students took to the streets in anger.
Some 4,200 people have died on the roads of Bangladesh in the last year.
Students have begun regulating the roads, and have come up with a list of demands which the government has agreed to. But high levels of corruption and broken promises have meant students don't trust the government.
There has been a violent government backlash, with tear gas and rubber bullets fired on the students, and journalists arrested.
A 100-strong solidarity demonstration was held last Sunday in Altab Ali Park, east London. The focus of the demonstration was the lives of young people in Bangladesh.
The student movement in Bangladesh has shown that power lies with ordinary people.
But if the military moves against the students, this peaceful uprising could become very bloody.

A rail journey in this low-lying country – where 20% of the land is below sea level – crosses countless bridges. Spend too much time admiring the beauty and you'll spend your money in bridge tolls!
This beautiful map includes an ingenious new twist. On the many double-track bridge crossings, grab the first route and pay a price in Bridge Toll Tokens to the bank; claim the second route and the tokens go to the player who claimed the first route! Score bonus points based on the total value of Bridge Toll Tokens you own at game's end.

Peter Crouch Interview - Puma PowerCat 1.10
England internationals? Check. UEFA Champions League? Check. Domestic competitions on three fronts? Check. There s plenty going on for Peter Crouch this season, so it s essential the Spurs striker wears boots that can keep him at the top of his game.…
Crouchy chats exclusively to SoccerBible about his Puma Power Cat 1.10, the joys of custom fitting, and his memories of keeping David Ginola looking sharp at White Hart Lane...
SoccerBible: You re wearing the Puma Power Cat 1.10s this season. How are you finding them?
Peter Crouch: I m really happy in the Power Cat at the moment. They are the most comfortable boots around. There are a lot of lightweight models out at the maoment, but comfort is important and luckily my boots offer that. They ve got a wide surface area too which I feel helps to get a clean strike. It helps you to bring the ball under control with your first touch - which is important for my game.
SB: Talk us through a boot fitting - how long does it take and what s it like?
PC: I have my boots custom-fitted in Cardiff. Everyone s feet are different, so to get measured up is a great bonus. You stand in a cast and they make moulds of your feet. It takes a couple of hours and then they have my exact size and precise measurements for the boot. That s makes them extra comfortable for me. I ve got quite narrow feet and they are size 12. I would sometimes get blisters when I was younger but fortunately I don t have much trouble with my feet nowadays.
SB: How many pairs do you get through in a season?
PC: I don t get through many pairs. Luckily enough they are very hard wearing. I ll get through four or five pairs this season. And l ll wear the new models as soon as they re out.
SB: Do you have any boot superstitions?
PC: I always stick with the same pair if I am on a scoring streak. I wouldn t change them until I go a game without scoring. On a matchday, I like tie-up my right boot on the pitch before kick-off. I ll tie my laces in the changing room, walk out and then untie my right boot and tie it up again. It s one of those things - I ve always done it! I do it before every match.
SB: Do you have any personalisation on your boots?
PC: I normally go for a standard Crouchy .
SB: Do you train in the same boots you play in?
PC: I usually wear moulded boots for training, but I mainly wear studs in matches unless it s really dry.
SB: Can you remember your first ever boots?
PC: The first pair of boots I remember owning were Puma Spiders - I still have them in a cupboard at home! They were fantastic boots. I was nine-years-old and I scored about 70 goals with them in a season.
SB: Who got you your first pair?
PC: My dad got me my first pair of boots. It was a big occasion for us to go to the shopping centre. It was an exciting time to make sure you got the right ones.
SB: Do you clean your boots? Have you cleaned any other player s boots?
PC: I ve got a boot boy from the Youth team. His name s Kudos - he s a good lad and has been looking after me for a few years. I was here at Spurs as a kid, too, and I cleaned David Ginola and David Howells boots. I got a nice tip of £60 from each of them at Christmas. Howells was quick to give me this but I had to ask Les Ferdinand to explain to Ginola about our boot etiquette and the tradition of tipping at Christmas. Everyone wanted to clean Les Ferdinand s boots because he was the best tipper. He gave out £100 one year.

Some new faces on 40-man Tipperary senior football panel
Conor Sweeney is new captain
Conor Sweeney is the new Tipperary senior football captain for 2019. Seen here in action against Cork in the opening round of last year's campaign when Tipp defeated 'The Rebels' at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
Tipperary senior football manager Liam Kearns has announced his 40-man panel in preparation for the National Football League which begins for Tipperary on Sunday, January 27, 2019 with an away game to Meath in Navan.
The panel has been freshened up somewhat this time round with the inclusion of quite a number of new faces including Paul Maher (Kilsheelan/Kilcash) and Paudie Feehan (Killenaule) who were both part of the Michael Ryan's senior hurling panel this year. Maher and Feehan already have brothers on the panel, Bill and Jimmy, respectively.
Paul Maher was a member of the Tipperary under 21 football team beaten in the All-Ireland final by Tyrone in Parnell Park, Dublin in 2015.
Also new to this year's senior football panel are: Gavin Whelan (Ardfinnan), Darragh O'Leary (Ardfinnan), Ben Hyland (Fr. Sheehy's), Daire Brennan (Kilsheelan/Kilcash), Conal Kennedy (Clonmel Commercials), Dan O'Meara (Kiladangan) and Jack Delahunty (Newport). Conal Kennedy is a younger brother of established senior midfielder Jack, and of Colman who scored the winning goal in the All-Ireland minor football final win over Dublin in 2011.
Conor Sweeney (Ballyporeen) has taken over the role of team captain from Robbie Kiely; while the vice-captain's role goes to Alan Campbell who captained his side Moyle Rovers to the county senior football title last month.
County champions Moyle Rovers have the strongest representation on the 40-man panel with six members: Alan Campbell, Ciarán Kenrick (goalkeeper), David McGrath, Liam Boland, Luke Boland and Shane McGrath.
Tipperary held on to their Division 2 status last year but at first glance the composition of this year's Division 2 is even stronger than last year with Donegal and Kildare having been relegated from Division 1, and Armagh and Fermanagh promoted from Division 3.
Tipp's programme of games is as follows: Meath (away), Fermanagh (home), Donegal (home), Armagh (away), Cork (home), Kildare (away) and Clare at home in their final game on Sunday, March 24.
The full panel is as follows:
Conor Sweeney (Captain) (Ballyporeen),
Alan Campbell (Vice-Captain) (Moyle Rovers),
Evan Comerford (Kilsheelan-Kilcash),
Ciaran Kenrick (Moyle Rovers),
Michael O'Reilly (Clonmel Commercials),
Paddy Codd (Killenaule),
Shane O'Connell (Golden-Kilfeacle),
Bill Maher (Kilsheelan-Kilcash),
Robbie Kiely (Carbery Rangers),
Jimmy Feehan (Killenaule),
Dave McGrath (Moyle Rovers),
John Meagher (Loughmore-Castleiney),
Gavin Whelan (Ardfinnan),
Paudie Feehan (Killenaule),
Colm O'Shaughnessy (Ardfinnan),
Emmet Moloney (Drom & Inch),
Kevin Fahey (Clonmel Commercials),
Josh Keane (Golden-Kilfeacle),
Liam Casey (Cahir),
Steven O'Brien (Ballina),
Jack Kennedy (Clonmel Commercials),
Brian Fox (Éire Óg Annacarty-Donohill),
Conal Kennedy (Clonmel Commercials),
Cian O' Connell (Golden-Kilfeacle),
Ben Hyland (Fr. Sheehy's),
Paul Maher (Kilsheelan-Kilcash),
Paul Shanahan (Upperchurch-Drombane),
Jack Delahunty (Newport),
Daire Brennan (Kilsheelan-Kilcash),
Jason Lonergan (Clonmel Commercials),
Michael Quinlivan (Clonmel Commercials),
Philip Austin (Borrisokane),
Kevin O'Halloran (Portroe),
Dan O'Meara (Kiladangan),
Liam Boland (Moyle Rovers),
Luke Boland (Moyle Rovers),
Darragh O'Leary (Ardfinnan),
Shane Foley (Moyle Rovers),
Liam McGrath (Loughmore-Castleiney),

- Ideal for steps and prominent feature areas.
- This is a new sawn timber that will fade within three months to drift wood colour.
- A very good sleeper that is easily handled cut and modified on site.
- Grade: A Grade – NEW
- Colour: Chestnut brown that will fade to a drift wood color.
- Treatment: Non-Treated. Suitable for all uses.
- Description: Top and sides are generally square with minor weathering. The four sides are well defined. Minor Wane (outer log surface) could be present.
- About: Due to these sleepers not having been placed in a railway network they do not have the grit , dirt and stones that can be embedded in used sleepers, making them ideal for projects that require adaptable timber that is simple to cut and easy to work with on designs to specification. Consistency in colors, size, shape & weathering.
- Using product: Cutting, drilling and using fasteners is possible on these sleepers with preferably commercial tools and equipment. Perfect for serious DIY projects and commercial applications. Stainable and sand-able (machine sanding) for a richer, sleeker finish. Takes well to regular oiling.
- Interlinks comments/notes:
A product that has only just begun its life, incredulous durability. Fantastic for continuity on larger projects with strong supply ability. Fantastic to utilize with other new products & designs.
Ideal for incorporating various building materials (raw & manmade). Provides a clean & seamless transition between settings & designs such as new house builds to existing landscaped surrounds.
- Delivery & logistics: 2.1M Bundle of 20 = 1300 kg / 1.3M3, 2.75M = 1700kg / 1.7M3 transport by (minimum) tandem trailer size with adequate tow bar rating is advisable.
- Facts/ myth debunking:Dense, tight grained, hardwood railway sleepers, especially tropical timbers, are completely different to light, softwood railway sleepers which have to be treated with either creosote or pressure treatment to prevent them rotting and collapsing. Hardwood railway sleepers are much more durable and naturally longer lasting.
- —African Azobe railway sleepers, for example, are often used untreated by British Waterways under water, due to their natural preservative qualities. Jarra, Karri, Mora, and Greenheart are likewise placed untreated on the railway track by Network Rail, and are expected to last for up to 100 years.
- —-So, untreated railway sleepers are popular with those wanting to keep clear of chemical treatments, or contamination, and wanting to use something that is naturally very long lasting. An original used Australian hardwood railway sleeper. Not treated with any preservation chemicals due to the natural durability of the Australian hardwoods.
Jarrah and Iron bark are the well-known Australian hardwoods, however 23 hardwood species are certified for use in the Australian railway networks, from Grey River Red gum, Tallow wood to Mahogany for example. Which are timber species that are far more durable or higher in strength ratings than Jarrah and Ironbark. Other hardwood species that are logged through out the world in the 21st century are border line if not illegal in their logging operations, Purple and Green heart timbers used in wharf structures from the north east areas of South America "Suriname ' or Azobe hardwoods from the African Congo up to Cameroon region . Where the international certification FSC* struggles to police and regulate logging legally. Australian however works with their own specific sustainability legal requirements set up and strongly enforced by the Australian Federal Government. Use Australian hardwoods and help protect the fragile Rain forest timbers of our world.

Welcome to AIKIDO in Fredericksburg
Here at Aikido in Fredericksburg we have a thriving community of students young and old—some just beginning, others with decades of experience—who train together in the traditional, non-violent Japanese martial art of Aikido. We offer free trial classes for anyone interested in joining us, so please do!
What is AIKIDO?
Aikido is a martial art that focuses on harmonizing with your opponent to bring peaceful resolutions to situations involving conflict. Aikido is non-competitive, taught in a cooperative manner, good exercise, and fun!
One's goal in Aikido is to redirect the opponent's energy and neutralize an attack, preferably without harm.
Why do AIKIDO?
In addition to learning about self-defense, most people find that Aikido can teach one how to deal with the stresses of daily living and to acquire a general sense of well-being. The ultimate goal in Aikido is for the individual to develop mental, physical, and spiritual integration.
Students of all ages have different reasons for learning and practicing Aikido. We welcome them all.
You can learn a lot about Aikido and our non-profit dojo on this website, or better yet, come and train with us to experience the benefits that Aikido training has to offer you.

You'd be surprised just how often I think of you all. Very often. Not a week goes by without something that takes me back to a lesson I learned on or off the mat. Aikido becomes part of your being – a bit like a freckle that can't be removed & grows stronger with the metaphorical sunshine.
I am thankful to have you in my life. You are kind, generous, gentle, wise and an incredible teacher
Got to spread the word on the beauty that lives in the Aikido in Fredericksburg dojo due to your efforts and the students
I really liked your concept and the approach to training.
Thank you so much for teaching me all my Aikido techniques. Your instruction has helped me in many ways outside of Aikido. Thanks, Isaac
Sensei, Greg and I appreciate you and your organization. Your patience, kindness, consistency, and leadership are fantastic!
Thanks for continuing to be such a role model and educator to Max. He is really taking pride in Aikido, and it's awesome to watch him grow up in the dojo.
Your presentation educated and inspired our students, thank you so much for sharing your time and expertise.
Thank you for the wonderful feelings of peacefulness that pervades the dojo.
We are very happy with the facility, the training, and the fellow students.
You are two of the greatest people I've ever met and I am honored to call you friends and family. As I reflect back on when our paths crossed, I really believe it was destined to be. I have grown into the person I have always wanted to be and you have both helped facilitate that.
I want to be able to give that to others, share in your legacy and really make a difference. I think we are on the right path
Thank you so much for all you do for our kiddos. We are so happy we found aikido. You are so good to all of the families. We really appreciate all of your hard work.
Thank you for your supporting the kids.
Thank you for your time, effort, and insight. You have helped me learn the importance clarity, and a good smile. I really can't think of any way to repay you other than committing to Aikido.
I thank you for all that you have done for my kids. Your program is amazing. It was a privilege to be a part of it. Bless you and yours.
Thank you for all of your help, advise, and guidance.
Thank you so much for allowing me to come to your beautiful dojo and train with you. I learned a lot. At times I felt like a failure but I had to focus on just improving my technique and realizing that I had fundamentals but needed to experience other training partners. I hope to continue my learning of Aikido. This is an experience I won't forget and hope to re-experience again in the future.
Once again my gratitude for your organizational skills and hard work hosting the seminar/gasshuku at the Lake.
Thank you, Sensei, for the fantastic venue.
Thank you so much for letting us use your beautiful, peaceful dojo as our learning space 🙂
From going to all your kids seminar over the years I have learned so much on how to teach the kids, and this again gave us new ideas and things to discuss on what we feel we're doing right and what we will add or change to our testing and what to test on. Thank you again for setting it all up. You did a really great job.
I'm going to share all of the material attached and from today with my co-instructor for the Aikido Institute, Martha Evans-Holm, as well as with our dojo-cho, Deborah Maizels and David Lewin, and perhaps other senior instructors.
Thank you again for all you are doing to spread O'Sensei's message.
On behalf of Traditional Aikido of Sarasota, I personally wanted to say Thank You for all you and your dojo do, to run and provide the Tahoe Almost Annual Gasshuku for all of us.
Your leadership is very much appreciated. I personally had an amazing good training this year, as always…. every year is amazing.
Thank you for all you do, for all of us in TAA and your ongoing support of Traditional Aikido of Sarasota.
I want to thank you for allowing me to use the dojo as venue. I wanted to show them that we have beautiful dojo's in the States, and not conduct the seminar in a gym. I appreciate it very much. Also thank you for recommending Yoshiko as a translator, she did a great job. I appreciate you opening it up to your students as well. It was nice to train with Rich, Robert and Tom again. I was surprised by the turnout, thank you for helping make that possible.
Arisue and Nakamichi commented on how beautiful the dojo was and they were impressed and liked the fact that you not only trained with Saito Sensei, but you are keeping his legacy going here in the U.S. Arisue was an uchideshi with Saito Sensei when he was in college and told a story about his memories of that time during the seminar on Saturday and explained when he walked into your dojo and saw the photo of Saito Sensei, what he felt. That was very cool to hear.
