It's one of the secrets of parenthood: Not just children get separation anxiety! Many parents are unprepared for the feelings of sadness and emptiness they have when separated from their children. The emotions that pop up when you leave your child with a babysitter or when you watch your child drive away in the school bus can span from a dull ache all the way to worry and panic.
In my opinion, disrespectful behavior is at an all-time high in our society. Stress seems to be fueling an increase in angry outbursts, unconscionable remarks, and a general lack of accountability. I have certainly noticed this in my daily life, in my work life, and in my family's experiences outside the home. So what can we do to counterbalance a sudden spike in road rage, uncivil treatment, overreaction - or even when we feel like 'going off' on someone ourselves?
Without the benefit of body language, which can help soften or defuse tense conversations, online discussions are ripe for misunderstandings and heated exchanges. How can we make social media a kinder place for the healthy exchange of views?
No matter how long they have been together, couples need sparks, creativity, and fun in their relationship. As the years pass, they need it even more. Regular meetings are required in order to talk, have fun, and spend time together. We know that friendships survive on shared interests, yet as soon as we partner up with our very best friend, we tend to settle into domestic boredom and let the shared interests slide.

What is the Artificial Intelligence Singularity?
The Singularity is an interesting hypothesis that, if the median of predictions is correct, the superiority of Artificial Intelligence over Human intelligence will arrive by the year 2040.1
It is a fascinating theory that, at the point of singularity, human existence as we know it could not continue and a step-change in our existence would occur, an evolutionary milestone for the human race.
It is clear that the pace of technological change is faster than ever and that governments, businesses and societies are struggling to keep up. What is technologically possible is not always easily adopted into the norms of a society.
A great example is intelligent autonomous cars, which technologically could soon be capable of self-driving, requiring little to no intervention by a human being. Developing suitable and effective technology for an autonomous car is a complicated problem, but one which can be solved with sufficient research and development. However, there are complex problems 2 to solve that are much more challenging.
It seems simple that while the car is in autonomous mode, the manufacturer is legally responsible for the car's performance and, while the person is driving, they are legally responsible. However, who would be legally responsible for the car's performance during the switchover between the person and the car, or vice versa?
Read more: Autonomous Vehicles: Driving the Future
Even more complex is the moral question of how the autonomous car should react to various emergency / non-standard situations. How should the car behave in a situation where two pedestrians walk in front of the car? Should it focus on the safety of the passengers or the pedestrians? What if the pedestrians are two young children? What if they are your children?
This kind of moral dilemma needs to be solved in ways that are non-binary and cannot be 'engineered'. As a result, many organizations are working on solving these types of moral problem, such as MIT with its 'Moral Machine.3
As we move along the path towards the singularity, news reports suggest that many of the jobs currently undertaken by humans will be automated within the next 20 years. on the BBC website 4, the figure given was as high as 35% and the website even gave the possibility to check the likelihood of your job becoming automated.
Notable personalities, including Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk, consider the uncontrolled rise of artificial intelligence as a matter of alarm for humanity's future. The consequences of the singularity, and its potential benefit or harm to the human race, have been hotly debated by various intellectual circles.5
Regardless of how far, and how quickly, we move toward the singularity (and if we'll ever reach that point), we must ensure that the humanity of this progress is maintained and that decisions focus primarily on the benefit to society.
What I have coined 'The Lean singularity' combines the vast opportunities of automation and artificial intelligence with the humanity of Lean thinking. It requires Lean leadership 6 to truly achieve the benefits that we need and organizations that operate in this way have a culture and a way of working that focuses on:
- Understanding customer value
- Designing processes that maximise customer value
- Developing and engaging their people
- Kaizen as an everyday part of their work
- Utilising 'tools' (Automation, Robotics, Machinery, Software, etc.) that improve the quality and effectiveness of the process outcomes
These 'learning organizations' understand that it is the combination of competent and engaged people, well-designed processes, and the right tools, that deliver maximum value for all.
There are many examples of this type of approach and Erik Brynjolfsson, in his interview with the Harvard Business Review 7, explained that machines often make different mistakes from Humans and, therefore, the combination of human and Artificial Intelligence creates a synergy of outcome.
The example that he gave was of detecting cancer, whereby a machine can very quickly screen multiple scans to detect those that appear problematic. However, the machine is more likely to make a 'false positive' assessment and therefore human intelligence will screen the suspect scans to determine which of them are really a cause for concern.
A manufacturing example is on the Mercedes assembly line for the new 'S-Type' 8, where they opted to use smaller, more flexible robots, working side-by-side with their team members and with much more focus on the flexibility that people bring in delivering customer value. The S-Type is one of their premium offerings and, as such, they need to be able to offer their customers a plethora of options, which requires that nearly every car going down the line is different in some aspect. This is where human intelligence and flexibility, combined with the consistency and labour-saving attributes of robots, and designed into a capable process, provide the capability required to deliver customer value most effectively.
Ultimately, everything we do, as a government, NGO or business, ought to be in the best interests of society. It is therefore incumbent on leaders across all organizations to consider each decision around how it maintains the humanity.
This will require us, as a society, to train our people for the realities of our journey toward the singularity, that individuals take the responsibility to continuously learn and adapt with technological advancement, and that we develop Lean leaders in our organizations who understand the difference between technological and human advancement.
Whereas the Technological Singularity is the point at which Artificial Intelligence becomes superior to human intelligence, the Lean Singularity is the point at which the critical mass of Lean leadership and Lean thinking exceeds that of the traditional leadership under which too many decisions are currently made.

I Don't Care, I Love It
My boss stumbled upon one of my videos of its typical eccentric behavior and said that I'm sure some people don't like your "loudness." While this bodes true of course, I'm sure to many, I don't care. I have so much fun, like crazy, innocent, genuine, solid fun. Oh my god, I'm so lucky. I really am. I don't have any massive problems. Sure, a 10,000 word dissertation inclusive of research with the additional Photoshop subjects may pose a challenge, but I'ma pave through as I always do. As all my classmates do. I'm with a talented bunch.
I'm lucky because I'm happy. I'm lucky because I laugh. I'm lucky because my daddy loves me. I'm lucky for my girls, and Sathis who is kinda like one of the girls.
I think it easy to forget to be happy when you grow up with the responsibilities that keep piling and the reality that starts kicking in. I swear I've met some funky individuals with serious issues that I had to learn to deal with and not let affect me. It wasn't easy. Sometimes I'd really like to reciprocate with a slap but I'd like to take the mature route.
I've decided to attempt to be a better individual this year. So far, my progress is slow but I'm working on it! I really am.
So, I guess this post doesn't really have a point to it. It is just my way of expressing my gratitude for all my fun, all my laughter and even all the tears shed this year. I cried thrice for my photography assignment. And FYI, I got a B! My lecturer said I had a high potential of failing! An F to B! That's not so bad, of course I have people like Crystal and Justin to thank!

Credit Suisse recently reported better-than-expected results for the third quarter of the year, and considering the fact that its cornerstone wealth management division drove profits for the period thanks to a strong inflow of client assets, it appears that the multi-year reorganization plan the Swiss banking giant started in 2015 is having the desired effect. The bank's reorganization plan hinged on growing its global wealth management operations (with focus on Asia in particular) while shrinking its investment banking operations in a bid to improve profitability while also meeting capital ratio requirements (see Credit Suisse's Mixed Q3 Results Followed By Plans To Overhaul Operations, Capital Structure).
With the turnaround in Credit Suisse's wealth management division apparent, the bank seems to have shifted its focus to equity trading now. That would explain the flurry of recent hirings by the bank's equity trading operations over recent weeks. This is a logical move, in our view, as the equity trading business is not as capital-intensive as debt trading, and also because it is less volatile compared to its counterpart. In fact, it is for these reasons that peers UBS and Morgan Stanley have shifted their focus almost entirely to equity trading over recent years.
Credit Suisse has done well in recent quarters to keep operating expenses in check, and we expect it to meet its target of reducing non-interest expenses to below CHF 17 billion for 2018. However, we also believe that the bank will continue to face some revenue headwinds from negative interest rates in its home market of Switzerland. Also, the bank will have to remain conservative about its capital return plans in the near future as its common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio figure of 13.2% remains below its mandatory requirement of 14.3% effective early 2019. In comparison, rival UBS's CET1 figure is a more comfortable 13.7%. Because of this, we stick to our $16 price estimate for Credit Suisse's shares, which is around the current market price.
The table above summarizes the factors that aided Credit Suisse's pre-tax profit figure for Q3 2017 compared to the figures in Q3 2016 and Q2 2017. The notable reduction in Trading & Investment Banking was largely expected, as global trading activity fell notably for the period due to low volatility – hurting securities trading revenues across the industry. While investment banking operations are seasonally depressed over the third quarter, a weaker Swiss franc also had a negative impact on Credit Suisse's advisory & underwriting fees over comparative periods. This is evident in the chart below, as each of the bank's investment banking units reported lower revenues compared to Q3 2016 as well as Q2 2017.
However, Credit Suisse has been visibly ramping up its investment banking operations over recent quarters by adding people at various levels. This includes some changes high-level management additions to its equity trading unit, as the total headcount for its Global Markets and Investment Banking & Capital Markets divisions increased sequentially from 14,750 to 15,020. We expect equity trading revenues to benefit from the bank's renewed focus going forward.
The performance of Credit Suisse's cornerstone wealth management business has been commendable, especially since it has been under pressure over recent years due to Switzerland's status as a tax haven diminishing among private clients. While the top line suffered from the impact of negative interest rates in Switzerland, and also from unfavorable exchange rate movements, the bank reported healthy inflows of more than CHF 10.4 billion across its global wealth management units.

A 2.0 L volume of EGSB reactor was operated at 20°C for more than 500 days with 0.3–0.4 g COD/L of sucrose base wastewater to investigate the influence of effluent-recirculation on the process performance. At the start up period, the reactor was operated in EGSB mode with 5 m/h upflow velocity by continuous effluent recirculation. The COD loading was set to 7.2–9.6 kg COD/m3 day with HRT of 1 hour. However, in this mode, EGSB reactor exhibited insufficient COD removal efficiency, i.e., 50–60%. Therefore, UASB mode (without recirculation, 0.7 m/h upflow velocity) was used for 30 minutes in every 40 minutes cycle to increase the COD concentration in the sludge bed. As a result, an excellent process performance was shown. The COD removal efficiency increased from 65% to 91% and the reactor could maintain a good physical property of retained sludge (sludge concentration: 33.4 g VSS/L and SVI: 25 mL/g VSS). Furthermore, retained sludge possessed sufficient level of methanogenic activity at 20°C.

Vladimir Putin: 'We Don't Care Who's The Head Of The United States'
He probably is right. Best of all; if BB would have been elected, The Judo Guy would have been able to continue BAU, riding rough shod over the USA as he did when Obama was in office.
SOOOOOOOOOO; it would have been in Russia's best interest if BB was elected instead of PDT.
Megyn Kelly is lucky she is not a Russian citizen doing that interview with Putin. The lady put Putin in the hot seat quite a few times and it showed by the expressions on his face. She would have found herself on a train to Siberia this morning with a 12 pound sledge hammer in her hands where she could really break boulders.
I think the look says it all.
I have always maintained; the USA has no business criticizing other countries for the way they manage their governments when we have such monumental problems of our own to deal with.
Those who reside in fragile domiciles should never roll boulders.
Prediction. I don't know how long Megyn's new show will last. In my opinion, she did a better job when she was with FOX.
Welcome aboard Jim.

Published: 00:01, 06 August 2014
Thanet council has been accused of operating a waste collection "con" by mixing carefully sorted recycling waste which is hurled indiscriminately into the backs of bin lorries.
Furious Cliftonville resident Lesley Brown says she was told by a council officer that mechanical failure of freighters was to blame and the situation has been plaguing collections for two months.
She spoke out as the council introduced a zero-tolerance policy if householders put the wrong items into their household recycling containers, informing residents that crews will not take their recycling if that happens.
Mrs Brown, of Cornwall Gardens, has been monitoring collections for a month.
She said: "So much money, time and effort has gone into setting up this recycling scheme and yet for two months nearly all their vehicles have been off the road.
"We are separating and doing our bit and then they come along and throw it all together.
"Thanet council gets a lot of money for being a recycling council."
She has watched as discarded food from her brown bin has been tipped into her blue recycling bin normally reserved for plastics and tin.
Mrs Brown added: "They are mucking up our bins by doing it that way. I would hope they would at least keep the food separated."
She says that the problem of keeping food waste separate occurs when the designated freighter is off the road and the problem is widespread throughout Thanet.
She said: " We are under threat of prosecution if we don't go along with it but it is just one big con."
Ramsgate resident Mike Poulter of Pegwell Close, said bin collectors refused to empty his blue bin because it contained items from the council's list of materials that can't be recycled.
He said: "It is very true that the bin contained four plastic bags. Each contained over eight empty tin cans. This was done purely to stop flies breeding maggots over the two-week period prior to collection. I cannot think of any other method of preventing this infestation.
"The whole saga has been made worse because over the last three weeks I have watched council operatives empty the brown food bin into the main collection bin before the cart arrived."
Cabinet member for operational services, Cllr Mike Harrison said: "As a rule, materials are not mixed together.
"However, there are some instances where waste has to be combined – these are few and far between, and generally relate to where one of the main collection vehicles is off the road for a short period.
"If staff combine waste, other than these instances, we will take appropriate action through our internal channels.
'We have already seen levels of contamination almost halve over the last few days and would like to thank residents for their efforts.
"We also want to reassure residents that their efforts are being matched internally at the council, where we are reviewing our process around waste and delivering further training.
"We don't always get it right but we're exploring more ways to support recycling and also looking into future initiatives.
"Please don't let isolated incidents deter you from recycling."
Thanet householders could be faced with rubbish being abandoned by bin crews now the district council has adopted a zero-tolerance approach to contaminated household recycling.
The council says the tough new approach is in a bid to reduce contamination rates which have reached such a high level that entire lorry loads cannot be recycled.

Review: `Kid' a Complex Look at Art
October 4, 2007 at 7:08 pm Leave a comment
The documentary "My Kid Could Paint That" encompasses some heady topics purity of talent, the nature of art, truth in journalism within a deceptively simple package. In that regard, it's a lot like the work of Marla Olmstead, a cheerful little girl from upstate New York whose paintings made her an international sensation when she was just 4 years old that is, until questions began to arise as to the authenticity of her work.
Marla's abstract splatterings vibrantly reminiscent of Pollock or de Kooning with titles like "Flower" and "Mosquito Bite" are colorful and alive in a childlike way yet show the polish and maturity of an adult.
Her father, Mark, an amateur painter himself, likes the attention his daughter brings and bristles at the suggestion that he may have coached her or, worse yet, doctored the canvases himself. But her mother, Laura, is hesitant to give into the media demands from the beginning, an instinct that will prove prophetic.
Director Amir Bar-Lev began his stripped-down, intimate film as a human interest story and ended up becoming a reluctant central figure, as he was the one person close enough to the family to be able to determine the facts. His participation may sound solipsistic on the surface, but it adds another unexpected, fascinating layer to this already complex tale.
As the legend goes, Mark was painting one day in 2002 when Marla, barely 2, showed an interest in what he was doing and asked to join him. He gave her a canvas and some brushes a star was born. A friend who owns a coffee house near the Olmsteads' home in Binghamton, N.Y., hung some of Marla's works on the walls. Customers asked to buy them; her first exhibition followed about a year later in August 2004. (Gallery owner Anthony Brunelli, who also clearly reveled in the spotlight, compared the potential pricelessness of Marla's paintings to that of Andy Warhol.)
An article by Elizabeth Cohen of the Press & Sun-Bulletin of Binghamton led to a New York Times story, and that would be the end of the family's peace and anonymity (Marla also has a younger brother, Zane). Jane Pauley, "Inside Edition" and "Good Morning America" called, as did Crayola, asking to make Marla a spokesperson. Her pieces were going for up to $15,000, buyers falling in love not just with the art but with the story of the young artist herself.
The lone voice of skepticism was that of Charlie Rose, who did a segment about Marla on "60 Minutes II" in February 2005. It featured video from a hidden surveillance camera of the girl painting in the family's basement (which the Olmsteads agreed to) with Mark audibly whispering to her in the background, urging her in certain directions. The final product didn't look quite as sophisticated as her earlier paintings then again, Picasso went through various aesthetic phases, didn't he?
Overnight, young Marla was labeled a fraud and her parents were condemned as liars who profited from their innocent child (excerpts from some of the nastier e-mails the Olmsteads received are both amusing and disturbing).
Despite feeling burned by the strangers they'd allowed into their lives, though, the family lets Bar-Lev stick around. ("I open myself up to you," Laura admits. "I choose to trust you.") But all of a sudden, his documentary has changed. About halfway through the film, instead of asking questions of others, he begins questioning himself. Even Cohen, the reporter, turns the tables and asks him on camera what he plans to do now. Driving home alone at night, he acknowledges feeling "sad" and "conflicted," but he never gets in the way.
Smartly, he also never gives the audience his final verdict on whether he thinks Marla acted alone in her creations. Maybe he doesn't know the answer, maybe he's just confident enough in himself and in us to let us debate and reach our own conclusions. Either way, he's made a film that's sure to inspire long discussions afterward.
One thing is for certain, though. Marla kept painting long after the storm died down. With everyone fretting around her, she remained happy, beautiful, blissfully oblivious. And she always made it look effortless.
"My Kid Could Paint That," a Sony Pictures Classics release, is rated PG-13 for language. Running time: 83 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

Published in 1852, Uncle Tom's Cabin was in many ways a direct response to the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. This act made it illegal to assist a runaway slave, adding further layers of oppression to an already oppressive system; as such, Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel is not just a creation of narrative and characters, but a politically and morally motivated piece of rhetoric. It has a clear agenda writ into every page and stands not just as a piece of literature, but an important document of social change. By sub-titling the piece 'life among the lowly', Stowe taps into this theme, positioning the novel as actively engaged with a genuine issue of the age.
In the 19th century, the 'lowly' represented a genuinely significant proportion of the American populace – the number of blacks involved in slavery was huge, with the number doubling every thirty years from 1808 onwards. Slaves lived through horrific conditions on the plantations and officials in the South such as James De Bow were determined that they were not even considered a true part of the American populace. Instead, slaves were treated more like property, something which could change hands in exchange for money.
The economics of slavery are addressed early in Uncle Tom's cabin as Shelby deals with a slave trader. The slaves are generalised into a faceless entity by the trader: 'They fetch a good price', further dehumanised when he claims 'these critters ain't like white folks'. The language is grossly dehumanising, reducing the slaves into something less than human. Family bonds are irrelevant to the trader – Stowe is clear to highlight how slavery forces families apart and causes, in some cases, almost irreparable damage to the normal upbringing of a child.
This is best shown in the character of Topsy, who, bought by St. Clare, is described as 'one child, who is a specimen of thousands among us'. Topsy is not just an isolated case but an example of a social trend present across America. Topsy steals, lies and is generally badly behaved in the St. Clare household – Jim O'Loughlin comments:
'What was unique was Stowe's conflation of the wild child with the slave child. This act of articulation made a particular political use of the wild child trope by literally making slavery responsible for an ongoing concern of white, middle-class America, the motherless child in an economically uncertain world'.
Topsy ultimately only changes her ways through the influence of Eva – Stowe's politically-focused portrait of slave life is of something damaged, incomplete – it is only through intervention that it can be fixed.
This plays into another central theme of the lives of the characters in the novel – Christianity. The religion forms a crucial part of Stowe's argument; Eva's ardent Christianity, as well as that of Tom, positions them as personas that can be better empathised with by the predominantly Christian readership of the time – whether white or black, the religion acts as a unifying concept. The lives of slaves such as Tom and Topsy may be lowly, but their Christianity, their faith, offers them a glimpse of something better – sustaining them through hardship.
This point is illustrated best in George's impassioned speech to Mr. Wilson:
'Look at me, now. Don't I sit before you, every way, just as much a man as you are? Why am I not a man, as much as anybody?'
This is not just George's speech, but Stowe's own voice operating through him – she argues for the universality of slaves and non-slaves, that every man and woman is actually the same, regardless of skin colour. If characters like George and Tom are 'lowly', then by association, white slave-owners must also be lowly for allowing this oppressive situation to continue.
When considering the oppositions of race within Uncle Tom's Cabin, it is also important to establish the oppositions of gender and Stowe's status as both author and woman. Through characters like Mrs. Shelby, Stowe is able to position the female sex as a kind of counterpoint to the black slaves – both are, to varying degrees, oppressed by white males. Thus, Stowe enables Mrs. Shelby, casting her in a role of privileged knowledge, able to better perceive the nature of the 'lowly' world of the slaves.
Early in the novel, Mrs. Shelby enquires: 'Why, Eliza, child, what ails you?' She is the voice of concern, highly perceptive to Eliza's worries. Contrasted with the male figures in the book, the female character is positioned alongside blacks, able to assist and show compassion to them.
Where the women hold the most power is morally – Stowe emphasises a particular sanctity to them. This is highlighted in Eva, the model Christian – speaking to St. Clare of heaven, she says: 'our Saviour's home; it's so sweet and peaceful there – it is all loving there'. Here, an 'all loving' world is posited as the ideal, a stark contrast to the ingrained racism of the real America. In Eva's speeches, she is given a kind of instant-access relationship with heaven, presenting Stowe's views of what Christianity should represent to the reader.
In Eva – a child – is a representation of the future; she is the next generation. Despite her young age, she is shown to have fundamentally grasped the ideals Stowe endorses. However, it is through her death that the strongest message is sent – these ideals are fragile, and without protection and cultivation, they will falter – America will remain locked in its oppression of the lowly.
Critic Otto Holsen depicts the status quo of the time in his piece 'The extent of slave ownership in the southern United States':
'White racism was, of course, essential to the existence and preservation of this economic opportunity for whites, and it is important to recognize just how many southern whites had an economic interest in the development, propagation, and acceptance of racism within the South'
Slavery was not just in existence, but actively being preserved by means of racist white logic that it was an essential part of the economy. Stowe argues that it is not with logic that slavery must be considered, but with the heart – it is on seeing Tom's death that George Shelby is so greatly affected as to set the other slaves free.
Contrasts like these provide a core part of Stowe's rhetoric, her persuasion. Throughout the book we are presented both private and public spheres of life. As author, Stowe is selective in what scenes she presents to us in detail, and which she can summarise at a distance. When Tom is beaten by Legree, the build-up to the violence is presented as dialogue, but the actual deed itself is not explicitly shown – here, Stowe switches to a far more oratorical style: 'scenes of blood and cruelty are shocking to our ear and heart. What man has nerve to do, man has not nerve to hear'.
By using the words 'our' and 'man', Stowe addresses not just the immediate reader, but a readership at large. The novel's sub-title is not 'life of the lowly', but 'life among the lowly', and this all-inclusive language places the reader in direct contact with the narrative. The switch between Legree's thickly accented insults to Stowe's own sermon-like narration is deliberately jarring – it places 'realistic' scenes next to high religious debates where Stowe is free to argue her point, adding a philosophical tone to the book. Stowe is the mouthpiece, providing a voice for the lowly and oppressed.
As a character, Uncle Tom's iconic nature has even given rise to the use of the phrase 'an uncle tom' to describe someone as overly obedient and servile. It can certainly be argued that, at times, Tom is meek, subordinate – yet he is also undeniably strong-willed, refusing to reveal the location of the escaped slaves to Legree. This presents a dichotomy: can a slave be both meek and strong, at once? Just as with Frederick Douglass's, Narrative of the life – an American Slave, Stowe poses the question: can one truly be an American slave? To be an American is to be free, yet to be a slave is to be possessed – each cancels out the other. Stowe's sub-title contains within it another similar concept – is the life of the lowly any kind of 'life' at all? In Tom's martyrdom, we see the answer: to him, freedom for his fellow slaves is more important than his own life.
Ultimately, it is the novel's popularity that stands as the greatest testament to Stowe's dealing with slavery. Was the portrayal of life she depicted realistic? In a way, this does not matter – people bought into her world in their masses, and with Stowe's injection of her anti-slavery message in every chapter, that message was undeniably conveyed. Uncle Tom is merely a literary character, but in their reading of Stowe's novel, every reader gives life to his situation – he is the fictional form depicting real issues.

CHRISTMAS officially started in Arbroath on Friday when the town was lit up in festive lights.
For the second year running, a Christmas Extravaganza event was held on the High Street from mid afternoon which culminated in the arrival of Santa Claus and the switching on of the Christmas lights display.
Around 3,000 people packed into Kirk Square and the surrounding area to witness Santa and his helpers Roddy Campbell, the standard bearer from the East of Scotland Royal Marines Association, and Sarah Smart flick the switch.
The event also saw dance performances, singing, a fun fair and Christmas market stalls set up by local traders.
It was an early start for the organisers Arbroath Events on Friday when they joined forces with the Rotary Club and Round Table to erect the market stalls and road closure signs provided by Tayside Contracts.
A stage was supplied by Harry Simpson of Mackays Boatbuilders and Jim O'Brien provided the colourful funfair.
Jivin' Jim then got the party started playing some festive tunes and soon the growing crowd was enjoying the party atmosphere.
Stewards were provided by Arbroath FC, Arbroath Events, the Rotary Club and Round Table, who treated children with sweets from their buckets which were provided by Nickel and Dime.
At 5 p.m., a stunning dance routine by Showcase the Street delighted the crowd and they were followed by the Rotary Club choir who sang Christmas carols ready for Santa's arrival.
Tayside Fire and Rescue then helped to bring Santa into Kirk Square from Commerce Street, where he started the countdown alongside his two helpers Roddy and Sarah.
And after flicking the switch at 6 p.m., the Kirk Square Christmas tree and High Street lights then lit up the town.
One of the organisers Councillor David Fairweather said: "It makes it all worthwhile when you see the happy faces of children and adults alike and see the event coming together for the benefit of the community.
"I have to extend thanks to the police, ambulance service and the High Street and market traders who all helped make this another community event to remember.
"Without all these people's contributions this event simply would not go ahead and may I also thank the public for a collection of over £200, which will help with the costs.
"I would also like to wish next year's organisers the same success."

Alex Gonzalez hit his third extra-inning home run of the season, a solo shot with one out in the 10th yesterday that sent the Chicago Cubs to a 3-2 victory over the visiting St. Louis Cardinals.
The Cubs won without Sammy Sosa, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list earlier in the day after having the toenail removed from his right big toe.
''I can promise you he was in a lot of agony,'' Cubs general manager Jim Hendry said.
Gonzalez has four homers this season, and three of them have come in the 10th inning. He also did it May 1 at San Francisco and May 4 against Colorado at Wrigley Field.
This winning homer came off Cal Eldred (2-1). Mike Remlinger (1-0) pitched the top of the 10th to get his first victory with the Cubs.
The Cardinals tied it in the ninth as Cubs reliever Joe Borowski blew his first save in seven attempts.
Edgar Renteria walked with one out, stole second and scored on pinch-hitter J.D. Drew's single.
Cubs starter Kerry Wood threw a career-high 141 pitches in seven innings, allowing just four hits.Continue reading the main story
Hendry said Sosa's big toe on his right foot was nearly twice the size of the one on his left foot.
''It was really affecting the way he was swinging the bat,'' Hendry said. ''The last possible option for him was to take time off. It got to the point where he could not perform at the level he usually does.''Continue reading the main story

BERLIN — A Hitler comedy made in Germany?
It might seem tasteless, but "My Fuhrer" is now in post-production and will hit German auds in January amid a tidal wave of publicity — not all of it good.
Turning a historic demon into a comic figure has worked elsewhere, but what will Germans think of Hitler gags? Will the shamed country, which still feels pain six decades later, be able to chuckle at a fictional Fuhrer playing with toy battleships in a bathtub?
Swiss-born Jewish helmer Dani Levy and X-Filme topper Stefan Arndt are gambling that Germans are indeed ready to laugh about their horrific past and the madman at the center of it with "Mein Fuehrer — die wirklich wahrste Wahrheit ueber Adolf Hitler" (My Fuhrer — The Absolutely Truest Truth About Adolf Hitler).
"In this experimental age, everything's allowed. Taboos can be broken and the boundaries of good taste violated as long as your conscience is on the good side," Levy said of the farce, due out Jan. 4. "People will laugh watching it, but at the same time be shocked at themselves for laughing."
The pic, which Levy also penned, is a fictional tale of a Jewish acting teacher named Adolf Gruenbaum (played by Ulrich Muehe), plucked from a concentration camp to coach the ailing Hitler for an important New Year's speech.
Levy, 48, has already hit the jackpot shattering taboos.
He won six Lolas at the 2005 German Film Awards for his surprise B.O. hit "Go for Zucker: An Unorthodox Comedy" — even though it took him years and countless rejections to find backing for the laffer about an atheist East Berlin sports writer and his orthodox Jewish brother from West Germany who are forced to reconcile if they want their mother's inheritance. It was the first comedy about Jews in Germany since the 1930s.
This time it was easier for Levy to find financing for an even bigger taboo-breaker: The Lolas helped Levy and co-producers Y Filme and X-Filme win $600,000 from Germany's FAA (federal film board).
During filming, pic attracted plenty of attention — not all of it positive — when Levy shot a scene of 1,000 extras in front of Nazi flags. It confused tourists, scared local residents and got massive media coverage across Europe.
"A comedy about Hitler — is that artistically possible? And if so, is that moral?" gasped the Berliner Zeitung newspaper after the extras shouted "Heil Hitler," gave stiff-armed Nazi salutes and waved small swastika flags — all criminal acts in Germany. A legal loophole for actors and educators prevented any arrests.
The hand-held swastika flags were numbered and carefully retrieved before anyone was allowed to leave.
"We don't want you to get into trouble on the subway home," joked one assistant. "And forget about everything that happened here."
The film is billed as a parody not only of Hitler himself, who has been treated by most Germans as the epitome of evil, but also of recent German films showing a more human side of the dictator.
To show his film mocks a 2004 hit drama about Hitler, "Downfall," Levy has included some of the actors who appeared in that film, which some critics bashed for showing Hitler's human side as he calmly ate spaghetti or displayed affection for his dog.
"The sense of 'verboten' is the thread running through Levy's Hitler comedy," wrote Der Spiegel magazine. "In a society the media has over-satiated, you have to reach out and break the very last taboos these days to cause any kind of a stir."

On Wednesday, November 23rd, six Sprague High School Alumni so graciously shared their journey with the 8th -12th graders. Here are just a few of the highlights that these amazing speakers shared.
Ray Schmitt ('95) spoke about the importance of working hard and showing up. If you are willing to do these two skills, then a lot of life's opportunities will become available to you. The opportunities you are getting at Sprague High School are setting you up to be successful.
Judi Vold Ringwood ('67) has been lucky enough to have a variety of careers. She said that none was necessarily better than the other, because it was what was right for her and her family at the time. She encouraged the students to always augment their career through volunteer opportunities.
Kim Jennings Rieken ('73) taught in the Spokane Public Schools for 35 years and is now enjoying retirement. Her message focused on keys to being successful in teaching – which are keys that will work in any career. Skills such as being able to monitor and adjust, adapt to change, and figuring out how to operate in the gray areas of life.
Brian Whipple ('06) has used his skills he first learned in woodshop to turn into a career in the remodeling and furniture making business. He encouraged the students to look into trade schools and find the training that fits your learning style rather than thinking you have to change your learning style to fit the training.
Kayla Riley ('02) spoke from the heart about "you can take the girl out of the small town, but you can't take the small town out of the girl". She expressed her thanks to the staff and the town of Sprague for providing strong roots for her and she always knows she will have a support system here.
Bill Linton ('76) wore his high school FFA jacket and Letterman's Sweater. He talked about no matter what you do after high school - build connections with people. Surround yourself with good people that are willing to give you good advice and invest time in you.
Thank you to all of our speakers. Our staff and students sincerely enjoyed listening to you and appreciate your willingness to give back to our current students.

Some changes on UVNC Remote Connection Tool
Orçamento $100-500 USD
I need to have some changes in well known remote connection tool UVNC, I have customers that kind of UVNC server installed on them (SysAid) (IT Help-Desk Business). I use UVNC Viewer to connect them, the system works ok but i need to splash some customized screen on the remote (client) side. Say that i have connected to user and don't want user to see my cursor movements or clicks on their screen. In UVNC there is a black screen option but i don't want to use it, i want user to see some customized designed noneditable(on user side)? logos/jpgs/texts on their sceen when i am working remotely on his/her computer. Let's say i want to show new discounts/products and some information about them. So that when i connect to the computer the user will see our promotions and informations about them.

Mysterious Disk ConsumptionPosted: November 9, 2010 Filed under: Systems Administration Leave a comment
Way out west there was this system… this system I wanna tell ya about. A System Application that's usually called a Network Management Application. At least that was the handle his loving users would give it, but it never had much use for that name. The Network Management Application, it was called "The Dude". Now, "Dude" – that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then there was a lot about The Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense. And a lot about what it does and where it lives, likewise. They call VMWare the "Kingdom Of Virtualization." I didn't find it to be that, exactly. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place so darned interestin'. Course I can't say I've seen London, and I ain't never been to France. And I ain't never seen no queen in her damned undies, so the feller says. But I'll tell you what – this here story I'm about to unfold, well, I guess I seen somethin' every bit as stupefyin' as you'd see in any of them other places. And in English, too. So I can die with a smile on my face, without feelin' like the good Lord gypped me. Now this here story I'm about to unfold took place back in 2010. I only mention it because sometimes there's a application… I won't say a hero, 'cause, what's a hero? But sometimes, there's a system monitoring application – and I'm talkin' about The Dude here. Sometimes, there's an application, well, there's an application for its time and place. It fits right in there. And that's the Dude, in VMWare. And even if it's a lazy application – and the Dude was most certainly that. Quite possibly the laziest of all VMWare guests, which would place it high in the runnin' for laziest systemwide. But sometimes there's a application, sometimes, there's a application. Aw… I lost my train of thought here. But… aw, hell. I've done introduced it enough…
Several times, The Dude has saved my butt. This is a story of one such time.
One time, we were working on moving a bunch of data from a system that was having trouble with its hard drives. We used this iSCSI application called Openfiler. Openfiler is another piece of software that should be described in another post. It uses old server hardware (something that you would normally scrap) insert a bunch of hard drives in it and present them as an iSCSI target to Windows or ESXi. Again, if you haven't noticed, I'm into accomplishing just as much as the next guy with as little equipment or money as possible. Leave it up to the people that spend money like it is growing on the power lines to tell you what works and what doesn't. For those of us who wish to learn from our own mistakes, make sure that it doesn't set you back or put your cooperative in a bind.
Anyway, I was using an Openfiler application on CentOS to host an iSCSI target to an old Windows 2003 server. I wanted to monitor it. Reasons for monitoring a host that is maintaining your storage should be self-explanatory. While these machines are relatively bulletproof, occasional issues can occur. A hard drive failing is an all-too-common problem that I worry about. It seems like the only time you find out about this is when you go into the server room and find amber lights. Dell servers (yuck) are the ones that are terrible about this lately. Their PERC RAID controller cards are known to fail (I have a new horror story about a hardware failure). The point is that it would be nice to get alerts beyond visual ones that will let you know when your RAID is operating in a degraded state.
In comes The Dude. I wanted to use SNMP to monitor my Openfiler box hosted on a Dell Poweredge 2650 machine. I used canary to install the SNMP agent on my Openfiler distribution and configured it to be polled by my Dude virtual machine. This was a pretty simple task and it is outlined here if you care to know exactly how I did it. Really, I wanted to be sure that the SNMP agent was able to monitor the PERC disk subsystem and I'd setup a probe on the Dude to notify me when there is a hard drive or other disc subsystem problem that arises. When I installed the agent software, the Dude automagically mapped out the CPU time, virtual memory, network time, and other interesting things. It had it all in a nice and pretty little chart. I noticed that if I hover my mouse over a device, it would show the chart with all of the notes that I put on each device. This was a cool feature that I didn't even have to configure and will eventually be the reason that I'm writing this long and drawn out post about how important it is to monitor your systems…
The Openfiler iSCSI appliance ran for several months without any issues. Upon reviewing the trend data offered by the chart, I noticed that the disk usage was increasing at a linear/flat rate. This was not an immediate cause of alarm for me. I figured that a CRON job would eventually kick-off and knock the disk down after 3 months or so. Nope, it didn't happen. Apparently, this was not going to be a benign issue. After four months of watching free disk space disappearing, I reached an eyebrow-raising threshold of disk space consumption on the OS: 81%. To me, anything over 75% is considered maximum for a production system. This forced me to take a look into the guts of the system.
I ran du –h > ~6-24.log command to give me current disk system usage and spit it out to a file. I also made a note of this in the Dude system monitor application to remind me to follow-up next week. Thinking that this process would eventually grow like cancer and eventually destroy my Openfiler application, I thought, "Let's just reboot it." After talking to Ben, my systems administrator, he talked me out of it. "Rebooting is a cop-out", he suggested. Let's find out what the real cause of the problem is while the cancer is being monitored and studied. Also, there are always people on that disk. If we remove it for even a minute, we would get some complaints.
I waited another week to find no change in the disk consumption pattern. I ran the 'du' utility again, logged it to another file and compared the numbers off of what I took the week prior. To my surprise, there wasn't a change to the file system. At this point, I called my brother in Germany.
My brother has lived in Germany and Russia for most of his adult life. He speaks six languages and graduated with a music and German major. He became a fairly successful musician. Some of his work was on this MTV show called "The Real World". Later, he decided to manage his own music label. He was searching for some software that would assist US-based bands manage their European tours (something he would set up for many bands in the future). He couldn't find a package that accomplished everything that he wanted… So, he picked up a couple PHP, MySQL and perl books and started programming. He designed a whole system in pursuit of his hobby and business as a musician. He is now a very, very good programmer who develops on Linux platforms and does freelance work for European companies.
"Seth, I got this problem with CentOS. It is eating up disk space. I did a du last week, compared the results and can't find the files that are growing."
"Wow. That's really weird. Which part of the file system do you think? It sounds like it could be in /proc if it is, it might be virtual memory that you are counting using SNMP. This would show up as disk space. It sounds like a leaky daemon or something. Did you try a ps –ef?"
This command gives the administrator a picture of how many processes are running on the system at that point in time. He pointed me in the right direction. I found that the SNMP daemon was the leaky application – that's right, the application that allows me to visualize, monitor, and chart systems performance and point out potential issues was telling on itself. The snmpd was running with a large amount of memory. I ran the commands to restart the process and saw the result in The Dude – disk space went down from 81% to 57%!
Huh… well, let's fix this so I don't have to do this again. I went into the crontab and simply made the snmp-daemon restart every week. Well, I could have dug further into why the snmpd was hogging memory and not cleaning up after itself, but I didn't feel that it was necessary. I don't like messing with systems like these unless I have time to perform regression tests on the software updates. In this case, it wasn't worth the trouble. It isn't like a missed poll is going to hurt anything. So far, it has been running like this for about a year and hasn't complained. In fact, I got some interesting saw-tooth charts to look at and can tell an interesting story about how to keep memory cancer from getting out of control.
File /etc/cron.monthly/snmp_restart:
#!/bin/sh service snmpd restart # this will restart the leaky snmp daemon on a monthly basis.


text: Sometimes we're so far off the beaten track, we'll get taken for a ride by a parlor trick or some words of wit, a hidden hand up a sleeve. To think the one you love could hurt you now is a little hard to believe but everybody darlin' sometimes bites the hand that feeds. When I look around everybody always brings me down, well is it them or me, well I just can't see but there ain't no peace to found but if someone really cared, well they'd take the time to spare a moment to try and understand another one's despair. Remember in this game we call life that no one said it's fair!

christmas decorations eve motion
Playback Media
This abstract motion features a row of gorgeous red triangles laying on top of white triangles with a hint of yellow. The triangles could be a representation of a classic Christmas tree. Subtle grungy texture slowly moves up and down the triangles. In the center are three large green circles that look like Christmas ornaments. In the circles are the words "Hello Christmas Eve Service" in a decorative font.

Contact centers are losing much more money than they think from employee turnover – a helpful benchmark of employee engagement. It's hard to imagine that attrition, already widely recognized as the bane of the call center bottom line, could ever be underestimated. Yet, here we are. The problem isn't that companies don't take the concept seriously enough to take action. It's that they consistently undervalue the true financial toll that attrition takes, starting from the point that an agent leaves the company to the point that the resulting empty seat is filled and fully productive. If these companies knew how much money they were losing right out from under their noses, there is no doubt they would try much harder to fix the problem.
Common attempts to keep employees happy like potlucks, dress-up days, and other center-sponsored events are nothing more than temporary band-aids on a much larger wound and aren't truly engaging. More important, there is no controlled measurement to show that any of these internal initiatives are actually effective. The first step to conquering attrition is understanding it, and the first step to understanding attrition is to keep reading. Let's break down how these companies can take a fresh look at attrition, and actually take the necessary steps to address it without needing a desk lamp housing a magical call center genie.
In the interest of outlining a methodology for calculating a concrete operational dollar value per "attrit", let's take a look at each individual source of cost a contact center experiences when replacing a fully productive agent. First up: the hiring process. Often when speaking to call center executives, hiring and training costs are the only items they include in their tally of the costs of employee turnover. This is a bigger mistake than Colgate brand frozen dinners (yes, that actually happened). Still, it's worth going over all the factors that should be accounted for.

Moreover, the Vilano Navigator is comparable on the Vilano voyager, the Vilano 12′ touring/race and also the vilano sport/fishing inflatable SUP boards in that it features top quality gripping pads that reinforce security and equilibrium, a thick strong PVC bolstered physique and that is just about indestructible and many D-rings which might be useful for several things; four D-rings about the nose can be employed to carry some cargo beneath the bungee twine Web, and also the 4 D-rings about the back on the board can be used to attach a kayak seat or even a backrest when the additional 2 D-rings over the left side are supposed to connect a shoulder strap to simply carry the inflated board about, not to fail to remember the last D-ring around the tail that is there to Enable you to connect a safety leash or to tie up the board to a dock when required.
ISLE like a maker has brandished the marketplace of inflatable SUPs with many products that have caught equal interest and a focus aside from the PEAK which was often called the best inflatable SUP in existence and for all The great factors far too.
In addition they offer Health and fitness and yoga SUPs, which is apparently a person in their main focuses. They have created an iSUP board referred to as BOGA YOGA, that's especially created for yoga on water. Along with the boga yoga, they've also created a network of floating yoga studios worldwide.
You might effortlessly have two riders on this board with room to spare or bring your Puppy. The diamond groove pattern within the boards deck is slip resistant even though it will get soaked so to can keep on the board regardless of whether the h2o receives a little bit tough.
Anyone can store at REI, but for your a person-time $twenty rate you may become an REI member and enjoy a lifetime of Added benefits. These contain an once-a-year member refund, normally 10% again on suitable purchases.*
This labored but was a awful Alternative. The kayak would nearly always change around and it was very difficult for me to carry the kayak along with the car.
The kayaking seat makes a terrific addition to this board that will open up up a whole new realm of experiences and enjoyable for both you and your selected associate as this board can cope with as much as 220 lbs with out influencing its functionality. So, is this the best inflatable SUP? It's possible to suit your needs it is actually.
Fanatic paddle boards pushes Group and Way of life and isn't hoping to only offer you a board and send you on your way, when you finally have a Fanatic SUP you're part of the workforce.
This expansive SUP is created to my review here become extremely person pleasant. People who have by no means touched an inflated paddle board are acquiring it quite simple to inflate and head towards the h2o. The inflation procedure requires only minutes if even that and consists of hardly any exertion to acquire this pumped up.
The convenience of transport is their major perk as it is possible to deflate them and retail store them in a bag to suit in your automobile easily. You not ought to set a board about the roof rack of your automobile or In the bed of one's truck.
When thoroughly inflated, the PEAK iSUP contains a six″ thickness. You'll discover it's super rigid and stable, rendering it very easy to paddle.
If your not wanting to devote a lot of cash, the Aqua Marina Breeze is one of the best inflatable sup boards available on the market.
When you're emotion Severe along with the wind is hitting tricky, toss about the sail and windsurf. This is a superb selection In order for you the ability to do this contact form the two paddle board and windsurf devoid of carrying two boards.
James Stotler May perhaps 31, 2017 Get up Padlle Boards No Remarks You may be thinking that inflatable stand up paddle boards could hardly ever contend with all your typical tricky board and also you're correct, they will't contend mainly because inflatable boards are way in advance in the sport.

Recently I came across someone on Facebook who was very worried about sharing their first altar with a larger group. Partly there was a fear their altar wouldn't be accepted as well as a feeling that they hadn't been able to achieve their ideal with the space and tools to their disposal. It set my mind whirling and after I shared my thoughts with him I thought it would make a great first Pagan Blog Project offering.
So, here are my musings on the things you should be thinking about when you set about creating that first altar.
What is your purpose?
Are you creating something to honour a particular deity or turn of the year? Are you going to follow a particular tradition or work in an eclectic way? Once you've identified a purpose it will be easier to decide what you want to include as you will be able to make associations between the subject and what you include
Top Tip – Look around for inspiration. Facebook groups like Celebrating Pagan Altars and Patti Wigington at About.com are just two places where you can find pictures of people's altars online. There are also groups and websites which focus on particular deities and seasonal rituals that will be able to give you ideas.
Consider your situation
How much space do you have? Have you really got enough space to set up in the just so way suggested in that books you read? Whilst there are hard and fast rules within some traditions and rituals and paths and conventions such as goddess on the left god on the right you should be flexible. If it's impossible to set up a north facing altar or one that you can walk around then don't worry and work with the space you have. I've had a thin strip bench altar for years, and I've worked off windowsills, box tops, chest of draws over the years and that's just indoors. The set up you first create will adapt and grow over time so try not to be too self critical with your first one.
Top Tip– if in doubt be minimalistic, see how the most basic arrangement you can conceive works for you and grow from there.
Consider your finances
Have you really got enough money for censure and resins when joss sticks will do in a pinch? Ultimately your altar will grown over time and develop as you do so don't worry about altar envy when you see other people's pictures.
Top Tip– shop smart and stay open. Charity shops, car boot sales and thrift stores are a potential goldmine whether you are starting out or not. I found Min at a local car boot, and my Heket representation came from a market trader. I am the Thrift Queen. If you think it will work it probably will and its probably calling to you.
What do you want?
Don't feel that you have to conform to anyone's ideas or answer, not even mine. The one truth is that there is no One Truth. Every one is different and the solution that worked for a friend might not work for you. If this is a communal space you will need to be able to compromise about how the altar takes shape however given you likely have a common aim and purpose things should fall into place.
Top Tip– Let it reflect you. Its your altar, not theirs, so it should reflect your values, your praxis.
I've seen a variety of questions around Facebook so I thought I'd repeat three of them here and give brief answers.
What direction is your altar? West(ish) because it is most practical. In hindsight many of my past altars have been West facing although it has never been a conscious decision. The associations of this direction are also personally resonating.
What is your must have item? Myself, I don't need tools to work magick but they are nice. If I had to pin it down I'd say candles, because I don't want to stub my toe in the dark.
I can't light candles or burn incense, what can I do? Firstly see above answer. An alternative to incense would be aromatherapy sprays or mists, it brings in the scent and the action can be incorporated into the ritual. They are also simple to make. Candles are harder to replace especially if they have purpose in your ritual or spell . You can keep the light on, although if you are wanting to create a mood you might want to use a side lamp or even ambient street light, and you can place the actual candle unlit and visualise it burning. Replacing deity candles can be done by using images instead.
I've added a couple of pictures of altars past at the end of this post to help with ideas should you be looking for any.

Review for TabGroups Menu by ratrace
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Useful add on. It would be nice if i could add tab groups menu to the mouse menu. That way i could right click with mouse and go to any page i like. I'm using menu editor add on, but i can't achieve that.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.1.1-signed).

text: Happy Labor Day weekend! As summer comes to a close, I still like to wear these coral colored seed bead bracelets. They're just a dark enough color to work really well in this transitional season. I always get a little sad when I put these away for the season, so I'm hoping to get lots of wear out of these before it gets too cold! I think I'll be able to get a little more wear out of them than usual since I'm now living in the warmer south.
