Talking about security of communication and privacy is never enough, especially when political instabilities are driving leaders towards decisions that will affect people on a global scale. Those who expect to read about data science and machine learning in this post shall postpone their wish to the next post, being the content of this one equally important, if not more.
As a matter of fact, people are cultivating very bad habits in the way they communicate. Many are putting their (digital) life in the hands of those who manage social networks claiming they are facilitating the way to communicate. Some others are placing their emails in the hands of those who say they are not evil. Other people are surfing and searching the Internet with the tools provided by those who say they do care of their data and open the doors to security agencies upon request, or, worse keep
their doors open to intruders and criminals. As a consequence of this superficial behavior with respect to communication, governments and corporations have secured a position that is extremely uncomfortable and very very dangerous for all of us. It is time to stop this and use powerful technologies that are affordable to many.
The scenario of sharing a document with a co-worker or a friend on Google Drive, together with some emails, and of course some calls on Hangout, is without any doubt, extremely rich of traces in the hands of…well just one provider. As a matter of fact that same provider can and will build a complete profile of their users, of what they write about, how connected
they are to other peers and much more. If this were not enough, then we should be considering the fact that this behavior will be reiterated massively over a billion other users. Every day. Forever.
"I have nothing to hide" say those who do not make the effort to secure their communications. Sure. Nobody has anything to hide. If that were true it would clearly clash with the fact that people who make such statements, are the same who are used to lock their doors and text instead of shouting when they are in public, not to disclose futile facts like what they are going to
eat for dinner.
Communication that is meant to be private should stay so. Period.
One more subtle scenario is the one of small and large companies that do not pay much attention to how their data and communications flow before reaching their destination. This information is usually stored for years and can be easily accessed any time by their own providers who sometimes are their competitors too. At the time of writing, very few people and organizations can claim to have some kind of control over their communications. Even those few cases where encryption is used are not always safe.
Encryption is performed by keys that should stay secret and that are used to lock and unlock plain text or bits in general. If these secret keys are not in the user's possession, the whole encryption mechanism does not make sense at all.
Google Drive and Gmail, just to name a few services that many heavily use
(I am not excluding myself), do not provide these secret keys to their users. This simply means they can read all users' documents and emails, any time they want or they are asked to. Reading content is essential for companies like Google, and Facebook, in order to personalize search and advertisement for their users, which is also the main reason why all these services are
free of charge.
"These companies have amazing data ware houses that are well protected against hackers" many are saying. That's true. That, however, still gives them the ability to access information, or, as happened in the past, to give access to governments whenever they make or impose a request. Moreover, nobody can guarantee that those emails and documents will stay in the same security conditions for the entire lifetime.
Without getting to the details of the mathematics behind encryption, as mentioned before encryption is performed via keys. Whenever corporations claim they are protecting users' data with encryption they are not telling the whole story.
For instance, they usually keep the keys which, as said makes the entire encryption process just useless. In order to overcome such an unpleasant situation, many secure communication protocols have been created. One of the most prominent so far is the zero knowledge protocol which does not
require any external knowledge to prove that a statement (usually a mathematical statement) is true.
This means that with a zero-knowledge protocol the provider knows nothing about their users' data and they cannot do anything to decrypt data which is physically in their posession, just without any key.
Implementing the zero-knowledge protocol and making sure it is correctly deployed is not as easy as people think. But the interested user should not worry more, as most of the software we are all using in every day life have an equivalent that speak the zero-knowledge language.
If these secret keys are not in the user's possession, the whole encryption mechanism does not make sense at all
Here is a list of "alternatives" to guarantee secure communications whenever required.
As a matter of fact, Google search has been accused to return biased results on queries that are too personalized. Maybe this is a side effect, maybe not. What matters is that what I search might return different results over time not just because the Web is dynamic per se but also because my interests can change too. In order to do this, Google collects all our personal queries for further analysis, store them for long periods and never let us know who reads what. Assuming that people usually do not lie to their search engine (lieing would not make sense in this context), it turns out that Google knows our most intimate secrets, what we think, what we want, what we like, our doubts about facts and people.
DuckDuckGo is a more discrete search engine that does not track their users, does not store their queries and just returns whatever the user asked. Bias not included.
Email analytics is the most subtle out there for two reasons
Metadata is all data that is required by email servers to
deliver the message to its destination. Therefore, even in the very rare case email content has been encrypted, metadata are still telling the story of who is sending to who. For instance, by analyzing the frequency of messages sent to a friend, or relative first, then to an oncologist, or psychologist, can disclose a very clear situation: the sender has health or mental issues.
It is the pattern of communication that is valuable here.
Tutanota is an opensource secure email service that takes care of encrypting emails without the pain of storing secret keys. End-to-end encryption is guaranteed also on email attachments and security
and confidentiality are enforced by a unique point of access to Tutanota servers. This allows users to communicate using their web browser, mobile device or Android/iPhone app. Tutanota also allows creation of email addresses for personal domain to guarantee secure communications especially in a business setting. As for storage, 10GB costs as much as one coffee per month.
Another valid alternative is ProtonMail which has very similar features, with a slightly different pricing model.
As mentioned earlier basically all cloud storage services do not offer any confidentiality feature and when they do they prefer to keep the secret keys that allow them to read whatever has been stored on their servers. Google Drive, DropBox or Box all have the same issues in terms of privacy and encryption. Moreover users' data is not only accessible to them but also to whoever breaks into their servers as already happened at DropBox and Yahoo.
There are two major secure cloud storage providers worth mentioning: SpiderOak and Tresorit.
At worldofpiggy.com we have got the chance to try Tresorit with a premium account for 10 users. Needless to say, we found it really impressive being 100% compatible with Mac, Linux, Windows, and mobile platforms Android and iPhone. Behind a very intuitive interface to share local directories and create so called Tresors, to keep private or share with co-workers and friends, there is an AES-256 client-side encryption that is fast and secure as it should.
One very interesting feature is the versioning of shared documents that keeps track of who is changing what, maintaining very strict security policies over time. All documents are synced across devices that can be attached and detached from a very intuitive dashboard.
Behind all this, a zero-knowledge encryption protocol guarantees that Tresorit themselves cannot read users' data at all. Not even if they were under control by NSA. Regardless, that would be quite difficult, being Tresorit servers in Europe with data warrants by Swiss privacy law, from which US governments have a lot to learn.
Writing about Tor might seem useless as I always assume the average reader knows about it. I will take the risk to repeat myself in this case. Tor is a free software that plays a role against network surveillance. This is one of the most subtle forms of surveillance as it is not only invisible but also usually not implemented in any of the client applications such as a browser or any messaging app. The concept behind Tor is very simple yet effective. All requests bounce around a distributed network of relays around the world, while encrypting all packets and following different routing paths all the time. This mechanism prevents somebody from intercepting one's communications, websites visited or media downloaded keeping the location of that user always secret.
While Tor has beed designed to run on any desktop application by setting a proxy that forwards requests to the Tor network rather than the wild Internet, it is now possible to extend this protection to mobile platforms too, in particular Android. Installing Orbot and Orfox (Tor browser) do the trick. All the traffic from Twitter can also be forwarded to the Tor proxy in order to obfuscate the location of the tweets one sends.
Keeping all the passwords that you might be using during your workday is not easy, especially when they all differ. Do they differ, right?
KeePass is a free open source password manager, assisting users to securely manage their passwords.
The attempt of Chrome and Firefox browsers to sync passwords and forms across devices literally puts in the hands of the same providers one's passwords hashed from the client. While it is mathematically impossible to reconstruct the password from its hashed version, it is still possible to use those hashes to authenticate (unless two-factor authentication mechanisms are in place).
I personally do not encourage to store passwords' hashes on the cloud for obvious reasons. I do encourage however to keep them into a password manager like KeePass, which locks the password database (encrypted with AES or Twofish) with a password. Storing the local database onto an encrypted file system or a shared one with Tresorit would add another level of security (only available to the most paranoid users).
Mobile communications are probably the most at risk just for the fact that people use more their phone than their laptop. WhatsApp has been accused several times for leaving backdoors open/forgot by purpose or mistake. This "mistakes" allow WhastApp employees to read users' messages even when they have been encrypted from the device. As WhatsApp uses a proprietary protocol and app, it is not possible to verify that what they claim is indeed the truth.
Telegram, a more secure mobile messaging application does it better with security and confidentiality as their client code is open source. Their backend however is not, which leads again to a scenario that is not possible to fully verify.
The only mobile messaging app that does it correctly being fully open is Signal. Signal does not need anything more than a phone number (to receive the authentication code) and uses true end-to-end encryption to secure all communications to other Signal users.
Of course, this is a suggestion and it really should not be applied to all your communications. There should be a tradeoff between what can be transferred in clear and what you better protect. This tradeoff can only be decided by yourself the only one who knows what is critical and what… is probably not.
As a matter of fact there are very interesting technologies at our disposal and very affordable too. We have the choice of using them.

According to the BRC-KPMG Retail Sales Monitor, total food sales in December 2014 grew for the first time since April, with the three month average to December climbing to -0.3%.
Like-for-like retail sales in December were down 0.4% on the same period last year. On a total basis, the British Retail Consortium (BRC) said sales were up 1%, the slowest December growth since December 2008.
BRC director general Helen Dickinson said: "The figures for December show that the British public were in a shopping mood with total sales up 1% on the same period last year.
"It's also worth noting that this has been the best month for food sales since Easter with many of us opting increasingly for premium ranges for our festive fare.
"It's clear that targeted discounting has worked for the UK's retailers – prices have been cut just enough to encourage customers through the doors but not so much that sales growth has been completely choked off. In one of the most fiercely competitive retail environments in recent years, retailers will be encouraged by the fact their strategy for December appears to have paid off."
KPMG head of retail David McCorquodale said: "The grocers had rather a commendable Christmas, given the persistent price deflation that has dogged the sector throughout the year. Food sales reached a respectable level in December and the three month average has climbed to -0.3%, from a low in September of -1.7%.
"2015 is likely to bring more of the same, and the big four grocers have already signalled they will cut prices to secure sales."

In a hangar-shaped factory hall in central Sudan a dozen workers rush to pack refined white sugar gushing from a funnel into paper bags to be loaded on three trucks parked outside.
Next year, the management at Kenana Sugar Company hopes the plant will be even busier as it plans to boost its output as the African country seeks to increase sugar exports.
Faced with the loss of most oil production after South Sudan seceded in 2011, Sudan has been scrambling to find new sources for state revenues and dollars to pay for imports. Developing its sugar industry is a priority as is searching for gold.
"There is plenty of land suitable for sugar cultivation and also the water is plenty," says El Zein Mohammed Doush, head of the sugar business unit at Kenana's main plant located 270 km (170 miles) south of the capital Khartoum.
Boosting sugar production also has political undertones. The sweetener is the most important food ingredient in a country where it is normal to put three spoonfuls in a small glass of tea or orange juice.
The price of sugar is so sensitive in the vast African country it can spark revolutions. A huge spike was one reason for street protests which led to the toppling of late President Jaafar Nimeiri in 1985.
President Omar Hassan al-Bashir has been facing for over a year small protests over a rise in food prices. Annual inflation hit 41.4 percent in April though critics say the real figure is much higher.
Thanks to a capital injection of $500 million from its main Gulf owners Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, Kenana wants to more than double its output to 1 million tonnes in 2015. Its affiliated White Nile Sugar Co eyes a production of 250,000 tonnes from next year.
That would help cover domestic demand of 1.2 million tonnes and leave room for more exports. Currently, all local plants produce between at least 600,000 and 700,000 tonnes in total annually, analysts estimate. By next year, the output could reach between 900,000 and one million tonnes.
Sudan, one of the biggest African sugar producers after Egypt and South Africa, hopes to become a global player by 2020 competing with world leaders such as Brazil.
In all the African country wants to produce 10 million tonnes by 2020 as more plants will go online by then, said Doush. Kenana alone plans two more factories, while the government has now put up for sale four state-owned plants which need modernisation.
Under a deal with Kenana's Gulf investors, the company is allowed to export up to half of its output, which goes to African neighbours, the Gulf and Europe.
To diversify its products, Kenana also plans to more than triple the output of biofuels, a by-product of sugar production, to 200 million liters by 2015.
"Ninety percent of our ethanol goes to the European Union, France, Holland," Ahmed Rabih, head of the ethanol business unit said.
Sudan has been in turmoil since the loss of southern oil but the economic situation is expected to improve soon after South Sudan resumes exporting crude through northern facilities.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has urged Sudan to use the $2 billion Khartoum expects to make from pipeline fees from South Sudan until 2015 to reform the agriculture sector to boost non-oil exports.
Unlike other Arab countries made up mostly of desert, Sudan is a prime location for food production due to its vast fertile scrubland and easy access to the River Nile water.
"Sudan has everything needed for success, the water, land, human resources," Sheikh Ibrahim Ben Khalifah, head of the Arab regional center for Entrepreneurship and Investment Training, told a Khartoum food investment forum it co-sponsors on Monday.
But analysts say the sector has been badly managed like the rest of the country, which is widely associated with ethnic wars, corruption and coups.
The Gezira scheme, one of the world's biggest irrigation projects built by British colonial rulers 100 years ago is a shadow of its former self.
The sugar industry, on the other hand, is in a better shape as it enjoys various subsidies and the main plants are run by Kenana, which is kept flush with Gulf money.
But Mohammed al-Jak, economics professor at the University of Khartoum, said the 2020 target of 10 million tonnes of output was unrealistic. "I think a lack of funding and infrastructure will be big obstacles for even to reach half of this goal."
The expansion plans also come at a time of an economic downturn coupled with global excess supplies. Raw sugar benchmark futures trade about 16.80 cents per lb, less than half their peak price reached two years ago.
Harry Verhoeven, an expert on Sudanese economy at Oxford University, said Kenana was posting a profit and was one of the most sophisticated firms in Sudan but remained a long way from becoming a global player like sugar firms in Brazil and Turkey.
"Kenana has received billions in subsidies but is not there where it should be. It's not a big player, a giant," he said.
He said the government was undermining the sector's efficiency by controlling the main sugar firms, shielding them from competition and pampering them with subsidies.
Analysts say the market gets distorted because the government is guaranteeing the firms a sugar price almost double their production costs, which opens the door for corruption.
Critics also say the sugar industry makes big profits while the mostly poor Sudanese benefit little from it. Kenana, which has a top-notch canteen and guest house, says it has hired 4,000 unskilled workers who get free medical care.
But with their mud-brick houses and unpaved roads, the villages neighbouring the plant look as poor as the rest of Sudan. They lack running water and families can be seen filling pots from a small lake near the road from the plant to Khartoum.
A ban on U.S. beef imports in place since "mad cow disease" outbreaks in 2003 has been eased by the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. The change will take effect on Monday, January 28.
The move was a further relief from 2006 rules that mandated only cows 20 months and younger could be imported, a step back from a full ban in 2003. Japan will now allow U.S. cows 30 months and younger to be brought into Japan.
The National Cattlemen's Beef Association released a statement saying that the change "will result in hundreds of millions of dollars in additional exports of U.S. beef."
"This is great news for cattlemen and women and is a significant milestone in our trading relationship with Japan," said NCBA President J.D. Alexander. "Japan is a great market for U.S. beef and we look forward to continuing to meet Japanese consumer demands. This move is an important step forward in paving the way toward greater export opportunities to one of our largest export markets."
Japan is an important market for U.S. beef exports, accounting for nearly $849 million and 130,000 metric tons in 2012, making it the second largest export market for U.S. beef.
Mad Cow Disease
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), better known as "mad cow disease," infects cattle and causes them to show behavioral and neurological aberrations. Infected cows' brains appear to have holes when examined microscopically. The infectious agent of the disease can spread to humans through eating meat from an infected animal, and manifests as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
The discovery of mad cow disease in American cows in December 2003 resulted in massive import bans against American beef from approximately two dozen nations, although many rescinded or eased those bans in the ensuing years. Japan has taken a more cautious stance, and the latest development represents a big opportunity for the U.S. cattle industry.
Lasting ffects of the Japanese import ban are apparent in comparisons between 2003 and 2012 statistics. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in 2003 ranchers exported 375,455 metric tons of beef to Japan, worth $1.391 billion. In 2012, that figure dropped to 158,646 metric tons, worth $874 million.
Challenges Ahead
The cattle industry still faces increasing pressure from rising grain prices. A drought, coupled with competition from ethanol, has greatly increased the cost of feed and raised operating costs for cattle ranchers.
Ana Puchi-Donnelly, an agricultural commodities trader in London, deemed this year the "worst drought in the last 50 to 70 years in one of the hottest years on record."
Although it remains to be seen whether cattle production can meet the new demand from Japan, the cattle industry is pleased nonetheless.
"This announcement is a shot in the arm to a market and producers facing continued drought, high input costs and increasing federal regulation," said Alexander.
The United Nations' food agency announced global food prices rose 1 percent in March, according to Fox Business News.
The rise in prices is due to dairy costs, which have been hard hit by drought this past year, according to the organization. Cereal prices, however, remain the same.
The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) price index, which measures month-to-month price changes in cereals, oilseeds, dairy, meat and sugar averaged 212.4 in March. The index was 210.7 in February, the highest since October 2012.
The dairy sub-index was effected a bit more and jumped 22 points in March to 225.3, one of the largest recorded changes ever. The sub-index is based on one of the world's largest exporters of dairy, New Zealand, where prices have climbed due to buyers bidding against one another.
"All the dynamic this month comes from the dairy," said FAO senior economist Concepcion Calpe. "In general the situation is relatively calm."
The market price for dairy dipped a bit towards the end of 2012, but the last few months have seen prices rise back up. One reason for the spike in food prices was due to a record setting drought in the United States this past summer. Dry weather has plagued a large majority of other dairy producing countries as well.
"Dry weather in Oceania which has hit pastures and led to milk production falling off steeply and a subsequent decrease in processing of dairy products, which include butter, cheese and milk powder," reports Fox.
However, the FAO remains confident that the prices will begin dipping in the upcoming months.
"We are optimistic for the coming crops," Calpe said. "The previous year was particularly bad so barring something dramatic the direction should be upwards for production. If this is what happens we could see prices trending downwards."

When I phone someone from my FLLA I can hear them clearly but the person on the other end can't hear me. I have put the sim into another telephone device and it still doesn't work. Then all of a sudden it works and then 5 minutes later it doesn't work again. I think all the towers in Edenvale should be reset/rebooted because when I was standing in the long line at the Telkom office in Greenstone there were 2 other people with exactly the same issue as me. Please Telkom please can you reset all the Edenvale towers and the towers in Croydon because I'm looking after my daughters house and she has no landline so I take the FLLA with me and it also doesn't work in the Croydon area.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Vancouver, WA & Portland, OR
The weather here is so terrible! They do not plow their streets here!! And it's just as cold as Michigan. lol, but the Evergreen trees are beautiful. But I wish I would have watched Twilight after visiting WA because now I keep thinking the vampires are lurking in the woods! haha
At least I have an excuse to pick up a pair of rain boots.
Did I mention there is no sales tax on anything in Oregon?! I paid a visit to LV, and am going back tomorrow..... I have my eyes on the Damier Neverfull MM, and the Damier Azur Speedy 35. Savings of at least $40 in tax!
I want to shout out to Mona a.k.a. Make Me Blushh for posting the pictures of the earrings I made her! I've gotten a few inquiries about the earrings :)
If any of you gals would like more information, please feel free to email me: firstname.lastname@example.com

Quick name the hardest game of all time. Obviously it's Demons Souls right? Dark Souls? Bloodborne? From Software at least, right? OK OK Something by Kamiya?
Battletoads? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Those are both difficult but more broken, than difficult.
What about Super Mario Brothers for the NES?
Think about it. One hit kills you, you have no weapons for 75% of the game and the one you get doesn't even kill every enemy. You have to go in close range to kill things but touching them kills you unless you jump directly on top of a moving target. Pixel perfect jumps and death to endless void is the rule of the day. Checkpoints are few and far between. You have limited time to think of how you'll tackle each section, a timer ticks down in faster than normal time in the top right corner.
Regardless, I don't mean to start a war about which was the most difficult game, only that Nintendo, you used to be synonymous with difficulty. That's...not true today. It's not true of any one console at all, I'd venture but Nintendo is the one most hurt by this perception. Games as a whole have become easier over time - you no longer have to find a typewriter in Resident Evil games. Checkpoints abound. Even "difficult" games like Bloodborne aren't really that difficult. My six year old can get quite far in Bloodborne without dying.
Nintendo was the system I cut my gaming teeth on. I was six or seven at the time and I got it for Christmas. I remember leaving the game powered on while I went to church because I was on world seven of Adventure Island. I was so close! Adventure Island was difficult. Blaster Master was impossible. Metroid thankfully had saves, but was very hard.
I got the Gameboy some time after. Mario World, Tetris, Mario World 2, Zelda: Link's Awakening, Dexterity. Nintendo still had it. Those games were hard. The SNES came out and while overall there was a...softening, of the difficulty due to savestates being more commonplace and developers not having to stretch the playtime of their game with ridiculous difficulties. Compare Super Mario World to Super Mario Brothers. SMW was still difficult, and took some diligence to beat, but it was nowhere near as difficult as Super Mario Brothers. There was also a transition that began here as well. Nintendo started to create their brand. Yoshi was introduced. Everything in Mario World was created to be kid friendly and cute.
Contrast the Goombas and Turtles in Mario Brothers to Super Mario World
Goombas became rounder and more spherical shaped. Turtles became personified - wearing boots. A small change but one I'd argue made them less, "Oh god, why is a turtle after me?" and more, "Oh what a cute little fella!"
The trend goes on and on until we have the Mario games of today. The important thing is that as each game has become more and more kid friendly, they've also gotten easier. Mario Galaxy...well, the only difficulty I had was in getting accustomed to running around small planets. Other than that the difficulty curve was practically nonexistent.
I just wonder what happened. When did "family friendly" began to mean ridiculously easy. Why and when did Nintendo lose faith in kids to be able to solve difficult problems?
I'm not saying Nintendo games are bad. I owned a Wii and thoroughly enjoyed it. I didn't purchase a Wii U though. I have a daughter, I want her to play difficult games, to learn to overcome steep obstacles on the path to victory, and to have to use her brain to figure out complex puzzles. I just don't see that in the games made for the Wii U.
Maybe I'm wrong - as I made mention I don't own a Wii U so maybe there are some challenging games on it. Bayonetta 2, if it's anything like Bayonetta, is probably one. But game for game, difficulty to difficulty, I don't think there's much of a comparison.
So is it me? Or is it Nintendo?

- Description
About - Stakkato Gold is one of the top modern jumping sires, who was successful internationally before being retired for breeding through injury.
Performance - Stakkato Gold was champion of the jumping stallions at his licensing, and at his 30-day test in 2004 he scored 10.0 for his jumping ability, with a total score of 9.33. In his first jumping season, Stakkato Gold jumped in elementary and medium classes, scoring up to 8.7 and easily qualifying for the Bundeschampionat. The next year, he won his qualifier in Mepppen with a score of 9.0 - a rare achievement. His father Stakkato amazed the qualifier in 1998 with a score of 9.9 - never before awarded. Stakkato Gold was placed in many advanced competitions, and won the prestigious Young Horse Final in Neumünster under Jan Sprehe. He jumped up to 1.50m internationally, place fourth in the CSI2* in Oldenburg, before retiring to stud.
Sire - Stakkato had a successful international career under Eva Bitter until the age of 18, and he is eye-catching as a sire of international showjumpers. He jumped on the Nations Cup team at St. Gallen and was placed and recorded clear rounds in numerous classes at 1.40m-1.50m level. Stakkato's sire Spartan adds the sought-after blood of foundation sire Gottard, while his damsire Pygmalion was one of four licensed sons from the same mare. Stakkato is the sire of more than 40 grand prix jumping horses and almost 100 licensed sons. Stakkato was the top-ranked sire of the German FN for twelve consecutive seasons, while Stakkato Gold himself has been ranked number one twice.
Damline - The dam sire Werther is a solidly impressive stallion, reliable for performance; the dam Wertherroschen had a successful jumping career, including second in the Grand Prix of Moorsele under Edwina Tops-Alexander, before Billy Twomey took over the ride and jumped her successfully in international classes in St Tropez, Monaco and Cannes. Third and fourth sires Libero H and Calypso II jumped internationally, with Libero H reaching grand prix, and the mareline has produced the stallions Vesuv, King Julio, Cardentos Dree Boeken, Goldeneye, and Dirano.
Progeny - Several of Stakkato Gold's earliest crop are now jumping at grand prix level, including the licensed son Seal 5, and the American star Silence, placed on the podium in several World Cup classes in 2014 - the same year, Stakkato Gold jumped 34 places to rank 4th in the USEF Sire Rankings, largely due to Silence's success. He has more than 15 licensed sons, among them the premium stallions Self Control, Stargold, and Springfield.

Averill Park
On Kelsey Kittleson's 16th birthday on Thursday, her friends, family and classmates will gather in the Averill Park High School auditorium where many classmates will share memories of the compassionate and fun-loving teen. She died on Saturday after a two-year battle with brain cancer, a disease her family and friends say she never wanted to define her. And it won't, given how vibrantly and lovingly Kelsey lived her brief life.
She was honored this spring as one of the 13 Kids Who Care, an annual contest that recognizes outstanding Capital Region young people for volunteer work, particularly those who make a positive impact on their communities despite scant funds. (It is co-sponsored by WNYT, St. Peter's Health Partners and the Times Union). With her own money, Kelsey bought untold numbers of quartz and ceramic beads in pastels and jewel-toned hues and fanciful charms and then made bracelets for other teenagers and children being treated at the Melodies Center for Childhood Cancer at Albany Medical Center.
When WNYT Meteorologist Bob Kovachick interviewed her, he was struck by how focused she was on others at a time that most adults would be consumed with worry about themselves.
"She impressed me as being wise beyond her years," said Kovachick.
Kelsey gave Kovachick a bracelet with her name and three heart-shaped beads as a memento. He already knew he could never forget her.
Melodies pediatric hematologist/oncologist Lauren Weintraub was Kelsey's doctor. She has a green and gold bracelet Kelsey made for her.
"She sold hundreds of them to raise money for Melodies, but she wanted bracelets she gave to people she knew to be bracelets specially made for them," Weintraub said. "She put a silver heart on each one as her signature. And she attached little cards that told kids receiving them that they were not alone, she was there for them. It's very unusual for a child that age going through this to be that selfless."
The medical team at Melodies and Weintraub implored Kelsey to participate in Make A Wish and allow herself a little treat. Weintraub said it took a year and a half for her to agree. Kelsey's wish was finally fulfilled when the Make A Wish Foundation sent her to California to visit the set of her favorite TV show, "The Big Bang Theory," and chat with the actors.
One of Kelsey's teachers, Kelly Marullo, nominated her for 13 Kids. Marullo wrote about Kelsey's athletic ability in soccer, lacrosse and tennis, and her gifts as a singer, cello and piano player.
Kelsey "used her musical talents to teach voice to a young girl who has cerebral palsy and receives speech therapy," Marullo wrote. "The work that Kelsey has done through singing lessons has helped the girl work on some of her speech goals."
Kelsey created and chaired her own tutoring program at Algonquin Middle School and loved school. Her principal, Rob Messia, saw the 10th grader as a budding scholar.
"You know how in college there's always that last student out the door who's so excited about the day's discussion she wants to ask just one more question? That was Kelsey," Messia, said laughing.
"She was a good teacher herself," Messia said. "She would coach other kids in our school musicals, help them be more confident in front of an audience, relax and enjoy themselves. She came back to the middle school to help the younger kids performing in 'Seussical the Musical.' She never mentioned her career dreams to me, so I don't know if she wanted to be a teacher. But she would have been a great one."
His voice broke and he paused, unable for a moment to go on.
Kelsey will continue to have an impact on her community on her birthday. She spent money her family would have used for her 13th birthday party to buy and donate items like pet food and blankets for the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society.
Now, her family — including parents, Rachael and Kyle Kittleson, and sister, Avery — is asking everyone who attends the memorial at her high school to bring a donation for the humane society, such as pet food, cat litter, paper towels, dryer sheets, blankets or peanut butter.
Memorial contributions may be made in Kelsey's name to the Melodies Center, c/o Albany Medical Center Foundation, 43 New Scotland Ave., MC-119, Albany, NY 12208.
Visiting hours will be on Wednesday from 4 to 7 p.m. at Tebbutt & Frederick Memorial Home, 633 Central Ave., Albany. The celebration of Kelsey's life takes place at 10 a.m. Thursday at Averill Park High School Auditorium, 146 Gettle Road.

Get fit at home with this super-effective BODYWEIGHT Workout
Don't want to spend tons of money on a fitness center membership? Try this bodyweight workout for staying fit at home - for free. No equipment needed!
Whether it is in the hotel room, while traveling, outside in the park or at home - you can do this workout without using a single piece of equipment. There's no excuse to skip a workout again!

This high-intensity bodyweight workout is a simple and effective way to work your whole body - without any machinery or extra equipment.
From heart-pumping split jumps to core-blasting planks, these moves will help you build muscles and boost your metabolism with body resistance alone. Perform the following exercises as a circuit, doing 1-2 minutes of each exercise or 2-3 sets with minimal rest between. Let's do it!

Husbands Get 'Charm School' Education Free of Charge A national magazine had an article, "I had My Wife Made Over," written by a husband whose overweight wife enrolled in a charm school and graduated a glamour girl. Unfortunately there aren't any charm schools for men whose wives would like to have them made over. . Here are a few ways in which a charm school would improve the average middle- aged husband: In looks: he.could probably stand to lose, a few pounds and trim down that waistline. In manners: He -could probably learn a lot about the duties of a good host, taking some responsibility for the family's social life, and being as willing to make himself charming to his wife's friends as J Ruth Mi!!ett she is to his. In conversation: He probably needs to be reminded that it is as important for him to help carry the dinner conversation at home as when having dinner with friends. And he might also leani with profit that if he is bound and determined to hide behind & newspaper at breakfast every morning he might at least offer his wife half of the paper in lieu of conversation. In personal habits: He might be surprised to learn that no woman alive considers it a privilege to pick up after a man once the honeymoon is over. Judging from the letters I receive a lot of wives would like to see their husbands made over. And if anybody ever starts a charm school for men, the list above should be included in the curriculum. But since there aren't as yet any charm schools for men, women will just have to go on as they always have, trying to make over their <"s™7 "~r» PRECIOUS IMAGE - Standing in a glass case in the Church of Ara Coeli, in Rome, Italy, is a life-sized figurine of the Christ child, considered one of the'most priceless items in the Eternal City.

Abstract: A new strategy for the sensitive detection of kanamycin (KA) and other antibiotics based on molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) and bioelectrocatalysis was developed in the present study. The KA-polypyrrole MIP films were electropolymerized on the surface of pyrolytic graphite (PG) electrodes, with pyrrole (PY) serving as the monomer and KA as the template. Because KA is electro-inactive, electroactive K3[Fe(CN)6] was used as the probe in the cyclic voltammetric (CV) measurements. The difference of the CV reduction peaks of K3[Fe(CN)6] at electrodes between the MIP films after KA removal and KA-rebinding MIP films could thus be used to determine KA quantitatively. When horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and H2O2 were added into the testing solution, the detection sensitivity of the system was greatly amplified because the electrochemical reduction of H2O2 could be catalyzed by HRP and mediated by K3[Fe(CN)6]. With the bioelectrocatalysis amplification, the limit of detection (LOD) for KA fell as low as 28 nM, approximately two orders of magnitude lower than that for the MIP films in the absence of enzymatic catalysis. The strategy demonstrated the generality. Not only KA but also other antibiotics, such as oxytetracycline (OTC), could be determined by this method. More significantly, in addition to the K3[Fe(CN)6]-HRP-H2O2 system, other bioelectrocatalysis systems, such as Fc(COOH)2-GOD-glucose (Fc(COOH)2=ferrocenedicarboxylic acid, GOD=glucose oxidase), could also be used to amplify the CV signal and realize the sensitive detection of KA for the MIP film system, thereby illustrating the great potential and prospects of the strategy

Colin Farrell is a wizard
We're currently in the midst of a new wave of Harry Potter mania. With its Universal Studios park finally opening, J.K Rowling releasing a written version of the newest stage play (which is book eight for all intents and purposes), and now a big screen version of one of Harry's textbooks, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
This newest trailer premiered during the MTV Movie Awards alongside of Warner Bros' Suicide Squad, and it's definitely the more grabbing trailer of the two. We get a lot more detail than we did with the first teaser, a variation of the Harry Potter theme, Eddie Redmayne being charming finally, and Colin Farrell as a wizard. I had no idea I wanted to see Farrell playing a wizard in 1920s America, but that's kind of all I want now.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them releases November 18th.

It is a sad fact that many men, women, and children continue to be homeless in the city of Madison and Dane County.
Here we are in the capital city of Wisconsin, a city known for its progressive character. Yet each year, about 3,500 people experience homelessness, nearly half of them being children.
How can we reduce or even eliminate homelessness in our city? A bold effort is underway to work on this problem. It is a collaboration of the faith, business, nonprofit, government, and neighborhood communities working together.
A new day resource center for the homeless will open in the fall of 2017 near downtown Madison. Dane County, the City of Madison, and United Way are all funding this project, which will be operated by Catholic Charities of Madison. Catholic Charities is also committed to raising $150,000 each year to make the homeless center a reality.
A contest was held recently to name the new homeless center. Over 400 people submitted names. Four finalists were selected and everyone was encouraged to vote.
I voted for the name The Beacon. I felt this name epitomized what the homeless center would be: a place that would illuminate the reality of homelessness and serve to guide and inspire those seeking help.
The new name was announced at a press conference on May 2. And the name selected was . . . The Beacon.
In revealing the name, Jackson Fonder, president and CEO of Catholic Charities, reflected on the meaning of the word "beacon." He said, "This a beautiful and hopeful image. It is the light of hope and it represents a guide.
"A beacon does not force you to change course. You must change your own course, but it does show you the way . . . The Beacon means you're not alone . . . someone else cared enough to create a signal so you could be safe."
The Beacon homeless day resource center will create an environment that allows the people it serves to feel warm, welcome, safe, and respected. Laundry facilities, showers, mail, storage, case management, and more will be available at the center.

Using Raeli's Spell Announcer
Or "How I can yell at people to use the lightwell AND see if they are actually using it."
No Stock UI recently covered Raeli's Spell Announcer, and I decided to give it a try. It's just great!
When to Announce
First, as seen above, you configure to announce only when you want it to. Maybe you want it to yap in battlegrounds, or maybe that will drive your teammates crazy and lead to whining.
What to Announce
Ok, you don't want to announce everything. So go through your spells and turn off the ones you don't want to announce.
How to turn it off? Simple. Uncheck all the channels that it could possibly announce in.
For example, one of the options is "power infusion." Since I don't share power infusion with others, I turned it off. I don't want to rub it in the face of the group that I'm getting power infusion and they're not.
Each spell will have various things that can be announced, based on which spell it is. For example, if something has a definite beginning and end, you will get the opportunity to set messages for the beginning and end.
Guardian Spirit's is complicated, because it has beginning, end, and a note if the guardian spirit is "triggered" by death.
But when I say complicated, I mean that the addon author has already worked out for you what events you MIGHT want to announce, and built-in the options.
There's also the option to announce buffs. But I have that turned off.
Where to Announce
There are things your entire group should know. There are things your target should know. And there are things you should keep to your dang self.
Let's look at those "Announce in" options again.
What do they Mean? (Besides the obvious)
- Local is just to self. More on that later.
- Custom Channel means you can set a channel like your healer chat channel if you want it to announce there.
- Smart Group means that if you're in a party, it will announce to the party. If you're in a raid, it will announce to the raid. I don't see any reason to use "raid" or "party" rather than smart group.
Setting Up Local
Oh, Local, you are mah friend! Things that only I need to know go in local.
Let's look at the setup:
I have mine appear in my chat box. But you can have them appear in scrolling battle text, as a raid warning, and all sorts of other places.
Now, why would I need announcements for myself? I know when I cast a spell. But I do not automatically know when someone clicks the lightwell!!
Awesome, right? I get a message in my chat frame whenever anyone clicks the lightwell.
I prefer that to scrolling battle text because I can review it after the fight and see whether the lightwell was used. (If I announced to the group whenever the lightwell was clicked, they'd probably toss me in the magmaw pit.)
Custom Messages
Most of the messages are fairly straightforward. "I have cast such-and-such." or " Such and such has expired." However, you can put in your own flair.
Think of Your Audience
"Casting Such-and-such" may not cut it. For example, the tank asked me "what's the difference between Hymn of Hope and Divine Hymn." Good point. So I put a little explanation in parenthesis for each. It's fairly easy to change the spell text and click OK.
And Snark
If you want to remind people to use the lightwell, you might want a more "forceful" message.
Room for Improvement
There are a few things I want to announce that are not on the list, and I can't figure out how to add custom states to announce, short of digging into the lua. (ew). Notable omissions on the priest side are healing floor (Holy Word: Sanctuary) and Mind Control. Other than that, I'm very happy.

These contractions often known as false labor are actually one thing that known as sporadic uterine contractions. Chances are you'll want to time a couple of contractions every few hours or time some in the early phase of 1st stage to see if a rhythm is developing. Your caregiver will usually ask you the way often the contractions are coming, and how long they are lasting. Labor could begin soon after the mucus plug is discharged or one to two weeks later.
For a list of words referring to Contractions, see the English contractions category of phrases in Wiktionary , the free dictionary. Straightforward to make use of This app was super simple to make use of and helped me to keep monitor of my early Labour contractions and report to the midwives.
Liked this Simply had my sweet child lady and used this for the contractions the day before my water broke. These contractions tend to return and go unpredictably and tend to indicate up within the afternoon or evening. Having the ability to time the contractions and monitor the intervals was an enormous importance the to start of our little one.
They are common, coming every 5 minutes or less and lasting for 30 to 90 seconds. Contractions are at their most intense through the lively labor and transition levels. You will most likely feel every contraction as a wave-like cramping that builds in depth to a peak, earlier than fading away again.
Converse to different mums in the Bounty Community on how they timed their contractions. For those who really feel as if you're having too many of these sorts of contractions, start to monitor your self and tracking the contractions. To determine if the contractions you are feeling are the actual thing, ask yourself the next questions.
