(PRWEB) May 26, 2015
PERTH, Australia – In her efforts to reach out and help people deal with unhappiness, Tania van Zijl often gifted them with books offering spiritual teachings that would benefit in their healing. To her surprise, many of them did not read those books. Various reasons were given, but, through it all, she found that there is a need to present the information they needed in a simple manner. In her first book "The Spiritual Dimension" (published by Xlibris AU), she sets out to do just that through the clever use of illustrations that guide readers to the access point of their spiritual transformation.
In the book, van Zijl presents the character of Fred, who represents the typical perspective of many people with regard to spiritual teachings and their importance to people's daily lives. She challenges Fred for an hour of his time for a glimpse of the spiritual dimension. Drawing on her background in psychology she explains, via the use of comical illustrations, the elements that lead to unhappiness and provides the mechanism by which this can be controlled.
"A new consciousness is emerging," says van Zijl, "and there are many people that need the understanding and assistance." Based on her own journey through Panic Attack Disorder and the gift that came out of her suffering, "The Spiritual Dimension" is a self-help book that offers a simple way to glimpse this new consciousness.

A declining unemployment rate, coupled with a rise in online content and private investment in computers, will drive demand for temporary IT staffing.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) July 07, 2014
Temporary IT staffing has a buyer power score of 4.0 out of 5, signifying a high degree of negotiating power for buyers. The high score reflects very slight recent and forecast price growth from 2011 to 2017. In addition, a large number of agencies provide temporary IT staffing, leading to greater competition and a wide availability of services, which benefits buyers. "Vendors have a low-risk supply chain and are generally financially stable, ensuring their ability to provide services to buyers," says IBISWorld business research analyst Michelle Hovanetz. "However, a moderate degree of service specialization within the market diminishes buyer power."
IBISWorld considers current prices to be low, having increased only marginally since 2011. Increased competition from substitutes has tempered price growth, despite growing demand for temporary IT staffing. Going forward, prices are expected to rise as the unemployment rate declines and more businesses increase their technology and online presence. Furthermore, expanding corporate profit will contribute to new business development and private investment in computers and software. "Both of these factors will ultimately boost demand for temporary IT staffing, causing prices to rise at a slightly higher rate than in the past three years," says Hovanetz.
Vendors in the temporary IT staffing market have a low degree of supply chain risk, benefiting buyers and vendors alike. Suppliers rely on very few inputs to provide staffing services, ensuring that services will be available to buyers as long as there is a pool of labor. Similarly, buyers benefit from the financial stability of suppliers, which helps to ensure supplier longevity in long-term contracts.
Market share concentration in the temporary IT staffing market is moderate. The majority of buyers benefit from the wide availability of service providers. However, although many suppliers provide general staffing services, buyers in need of highly trained and specialized technicians for specific projects may be limited to more niche providers. A higher concentration of suppliers for specialized services negatively impacts buyers by limiting competition, allowing niche providers to charge a premium. Major vendors include Adecco SA, Allegis Group Services, CDI Corporation and Insight Global.

First let me say, David Duke's support of President Trump is no less an indictment on the president being a racist than Grand Dragon Sen. Robert Byrd's mentoring of Hillary Clinton makes her a racist.
Over this past weekend, the president made two statements both condemning the violence produced by hatred and bigotry on display in Charlottesville, VA. He repeated his past condemnation of David Duke and the KKK previously made during the presidential campaign. His position is clear on the issue.
On Tuesday, August 15, 2017, the president took his statements even further by calling both sides of the event (Alt-Left and Alt-Right) to blame for the violence. Based on the media coverage available showing the usual suspects with black masks on faces (Alt-Left) and white robes (Alt-Right including the KKK), the president was accurate in his statements and he provoked a query of us all - how far the Alt-Left will go with tearing down the physical reminders of racism. Will the statues of President Washington and Thomas Jefferson be next,? he asked. Where is the line in responding to racism by tearing down the evidence of the past? In this query, the president doesn't condone or ignore the hatred that divides, but rather highlights the irrational response to racism promoted by the Alt-Left.
Moreover, what has been lost in the national discourse is the president's call for unity and peace. The Alt-Left media would rather distract the nation by what the president said and what he did not say. This is not what we need. This is an intentional agenda, promoted by the Alt-Left media and the Alt-Left itself to divide us around identity politics. After all, the KKK, along with David Duke, are of no real consequence. Surely it is no surprise that hate is among us.
The time to divide must pass. The time to push a political agenda to unseat a president you may not like must pass.
The violence promoted by groups like BLM who not so long ago decried pigs in a blanket fry em like bacon (a slogan that preceded the slaughter of police officers in NY and Dallas), and the organized efforts by the likes of financier George Soros and MoveOn.org and countless other Alt-Left nonprofits to sow seeds of hate that divide and kill must also stop.
All violence must continue to be condemned from all sides of the political spectrum; the harsh reality is that the expression of ones hatred is not illegal.
Notwithstanding the need for leadership to be united standing against violent expression of hate, now is a time for peace which may only come about by prayer.
Lets pray.

AAROM - Statement of Interest - Capacity Building
Table of contents
The Capacity Building (CB) Statement of Interest (SOI) will be used to determine the eligibility of applicants for participation in the CB component of the AAROM Program.
Program Highlights
The AAROM Program will apply in areas where DFO manages the fishery, and with Aboriginal groups that have not yet signed a comprehensive land claims agreement that addresses the matters under AAROM. Where the Aboriginal group has signed a comprehensive land claims agreement, and one or more of the matters covered by the AAROM Program are not dealt with in the agreement, the group would be eligible to apply for support in those matters not covered in the agreement.
The CB component of the AAROM Program is intended to support qualifying Aboriginal groups in the developmental phases of the AAROM Program. Activities undertaken as part of this sub-component of AAROM should be directly aligned to meeting the programming criteria for the Collaborative Management (CM) component of AAROM (please see AAROM CM application template for more information and details). Groups may also request limited capacity development support to access the necessary expertise required to assist them in the execution of these tasks and ensure that an appropriate foundation for watershed/ecosystem-based management has been established. The documentation developed through these exercises will assist groups in the formulation of proposals for application to the AAROM CM component.
DFO recognizes that different groups are at different stages of development. However, as groups will be assessed upon achievements of results in relation to planned activities (using performance-based evaluation criteria), only actual planned activities - to be managed within appropriate set timeframes - need be referenced at this stage. The latter assessment will assist DFO in determining the level of readiness and eligibility of groups for participation in AAROM CM. Additional opportunities for the continuation of CB sub-activities not covered in the existing SOI may be offered in future under a separate application should eligible groups wish to defer the pursuit of those activities to a later/more appropriate time.
|Each application must be sponsored by a regional representative having sufficient knowledge of the applicant(s). Dedicated DFO staff in the regions have been assigned to provide guidance and assistance to groups in the development of their SOIs. Officers will be available to review and discuss the information provided in SOIs with applicants prior to the submission of their SOIs for formal regional and national consideration.

Formal Assessment Process
Once assessed for quality and completeness (e.g., having the required signatures, etc.), regional representatives will forward the completed SOI(s) to his/her respective DFO regional review committee responsible for providing an appropriate level of oversight and coordination. Applications may be subject to further amendment following this initial screening phase. Approved SOI applications will then be submitted for formal review and assessment by a National DFO Program Implementation Steering Committee. Applications will be assessed against overall program objectives and criteria. Once a decision has been taken, applicants will be formally apprised of the status of their applications in writing.
Using this Template
There are three major sections to this template: A) Applicant Eligibility Information; B) Project Proposal; C) Signatures. A Supporting Statement is also provided as an Appendix. The template can serve as a guide to applicants in structuring their SOI applications.

B. Project Proposal
Proposed Objectives, Mandate and Functions
Proposed Objectives
Project description(s) and funds requested:
A. Facilitating Dialogue on AAROM Among Member Communities
Groups may receive funding for activities including:
- meetings and workshops supporting dialogue among potential groups to ascertain their interest in being part of an AAROM body;
- accessing facilitators and similar expertise to support and enhance that dialogue;
- research, preparation and dissemination of issue/position papers;
- and related communications, printing and dissemination costs.
[Some of the expenditures related to this activity may be linked to other categories listed below. However, in some cases, the initiation of dialogue among groups may be the sole or primary activity undertaken by a potential organization (AAROM body) to introduce the concept of AAROM to their potential membership and to initiate preparations for subsequent developmental activities (as outlined in categories B-E). In those cases, funding requests should be limited to Activity Category A.]
B. Strategic and Community-Based Planning
Groups may receive funding for strategic and community-based planning exercises including:
- the organization and facilitation of meetings;
- accessing skilled personnel;
- development of documentation related to the attainment of AAROM Collaborative Management (CM) eligibility criteria (see separate CM SOI);
- enabling exchanges between DFO and/or among Aboriginal groups to share expertise, best practices, knowledge and information;
- related communications and printing costs
[This may be the first opportunity that some groups will have had
to undertake this type of dialogue/ work.
Activities that fall under this category may be ongoing, beyond 2004-05, for some groups. Focus should be on addressing immediate needs to enable the organization (potential AAROM body) to develop a formal AAROM CM proposal in the short term. Of note, the ability of a group to achieve consensus in identified areas will assist the organization in demonstrating its potential for success in a future AAROM CM proposal.]
C. Capacity Assessments and Feasibility Studies
Groups may receive funding for capacity assessments and feasibility studies that involve or pursue:
- a better understanding of the specific management and governance capacities of various Aboriginal groups, communities, and organisations and how they link, or could be linked in the future to existing fisheries-related management structures and processes;
- research related to aquatic and oceans resources, and their supporting habitats;
- a review of gaps and needs that suggest priority areas for funding support.
[Some groups may wish to defer this activity to a future year agreement due to lack of readiness of groups to undertake this type of study at this time; alternatively the application could extend to more than one fiscal year.]
D. Capacity Development
Groups may receive funding for capacity development activities that include:
- accessing skilled personnel (professional and technical expertise) to support the effective engagement of member communities in discussions related to the operationalization of a future AAROM structure or proposal;
- undertaking administrative, financial and legal preparations for the establishment of an AAROM body;
- putting in place an interim management infrastructure (e.g., AAROM coordinator plus administrative support, etc.) to oversee the coordination of efforts over a specified term consistent with the agreement period;
- technical assistance that would enable groups to meet the programming criteria for the AAROM CM element (e.g., addressing interim capacity shortfalls in key areas of operational or financial management);
- addressing coordination and facilitation needs to support the effective engagement of member communities in discussions related to the operationalization of a future AAROM structure or proposal; and
- preliminary preparations for the negotiation of AAROM agreements.
[Objective is to allow the organization (potential AAROM body) to access expertise in some or either of the following key areas, e.g.,:
- community development and leadership;
- management and administration (business/ management);
- facilitation and negotiation;
- financial and reporting systems management and development; fisheries management;
- science;
- aquaculture;
- oceans and marine use planning;
- scientific research and planning;
- stewardship and habitat protection.
Ongoing needs (beyond the duration of the Capacity Building agreement) would be reflected in a future AAROM Capacity Building or Collaborative Management proposal.]
E. Business Planning
Groups may receive funding for business plan preparation in relation to potential AAROM-related economic opportunities including:
- accessing skilled personnel in support of internal business planning processes;
- the organization and facilitation of meetings; and
- related communications and printing costs.
[Should identify long-term community development needs and opportunities, and not necessarily be restricted to fisheries/aquaculture. Could target other government programming (as reference only) in addition to DFO component highlighting opportunities for shared project funding.
Again, may be too early for some groups to undertake this exercise. May be included as a component of a subsequent or follow-up AAROM CB proposal.]
Total Amount Requested*
*Amounts may require adjustment based on availability of funds and relative capacity of groups.
C. Signatures
Declaration (Each Applicant must sign and date this statement of Interest. - Applicants must be mandated as representatives of their communities)
Supporting Statement
(Rationale for participation in the program; Broad goals and objectives of the proposed AAROM body; Early identification of areas of interest; Anticipated short-term challenges; self-assessment of readiness - Whether group anticipates the need for further capacity building support beyond 2004-05)

Singer/songwriter Jack Johnson dedicated his set at the Bonnaroo music festival to Mumford & Sons on Saturday (15Jun13) after they pulled out of the Tennessee event and he landed their headlining slot.
Johnson was recruited to replace the folk rockers after they cancelled their appearance following bassist Ted Dwane's surgery to remove a blood clot from his brain.
After taking to the stage with a four-piece band, the Hawaiian-born star showed his love for the British group, declaring, "We want to dedicate this whole set to Ted Dwane and all of Mumford & Sons."
He also covered the Grammy Award winners' hit The Cave during his two-hour set.
At a press conference on Friday (14Jun13), Johnson revealed he was already on his way to the festival when he received a phone call offering him the job.
He explained, "As soon as I said yes, I said, 'Holy s**t. I gotta learn a lot of chords and a lot of words really quickly.'"
Day Two of Bonnaroo also featured performances by R. Kelly, Bjork, Solange Knowles, Nas and 'Weird Al' Yankovic.

Adele At The Oscars: An Alcoholic With Soul
Adele reaped significant attention on Facebook and Twitter during the 85th Academy Awards this past Sunday. "Skyfall" was named Best Original Song; Adele was positively glowing at the awards ceremony as she accepted her Oscar. Adele's soulful nature, catchy songs, and humble personality have won the affection of millions, especially from those in recovery from drug addiction and alcoholism.
Adele's Biography
After years of struggles with her drinking, Adele shared her story with others. Marc Shaprio, author of "Adele: The Biography", details the singer's trials and tribulations, her struggles with drinking, and her progression of alcoholism in front of the public eye. "I got so drunk by the time I went on at 2 a.m., I had forgotten the words to my own songs… It was the worst thing ever," Adele tells Shapiro in an interview for "In Touch" magazine in 2012.
Drinking Problem
The heartbreak and agony of Adele's drinking problem and struggles with alcoholism was not entirely out of the blue. Her estranged father Mark Evans, who left Adele at the age of 3, also suffered from alcoholism. It is not uncommon for alcoholism or drug addiction to run genetically through a family, and we have seen it all too much in the celebrity spot light. One example is Martin Sheen, who suffered from drug addiction and drinking problems but overcame his addiction and entered recovery. His son Charlie Sheen, unfortunately, still struggles with drugs and alcohol.
Struggles With Alcoholism
Adele through her struggles has inspired and brought hope to so many others suffering from drug addiction and alcoholism by disclosing personal information from her past. She openly admits to having major insecurities, being bullied in school, and broken relationships that led her to self-medicate. Alcohol abuse and Alcoholism can affect anyone, no matter who you are. If you feel like you may have a drinking problem, call our free confidential help line to find out more about how you can stop drinking at 1-800-861-1768.

Pet résumés may be required for your next apartment — yes, really
Trying to rent an apartment? The newest trend you may not have heard of is the pet résumé. Yes, that's a thing. And when it comes to one of these résumés, it pays to be prepared. Know how to write it and take it seriously (because the people who are reading it will).
First, you have to understand the purpose of this résumé. Professional pet résumé writer and graphic designer (and pet-owning renter) Cathy Klein notes, "Like a human's employment résumé, a pet résumé is a sales pitch, but there is a difference. An employment résumé seeks to answer the question, 'What can this person do for my company?' whereas a pet résumé seeks to answer the question, 'How can I be sure that this person and their pets will respect and take care of my property?'"
Image: Cathy Klein/PetResumes.net (A real pet résumé created by Klein published with the dog owner's permission.)
She goes on to note that you're not trying to excite the landlord — to make him or her desperately want you to move in so he or she can play with your dog — but to put the landlord at ease. And make no mistake, landlords are also looking for it to show you're a caring and responsible pet owner.
Additionally, you should have the résumé prepared as you're looking for apartments. There's nothing worse than finding the perfect place and not having it ready to go.
The elements of a good pet résumé
The basics — Include your pet's name, breed, sex, age and any special training. If it has attended obedience school or if it's a "professional" dog, like a police dog or therapy dog, that should be included because it speaks to your pet's behavior.
Description — You need to have a brief paragraph about your pet's personality. This is where you'll include any positive attributes that also indicate good behavior. Maybe it likes to swim or play with kids. But always frame it in the context of showing how good your pet is and how much the other people in the complex will find it enjoyable (and not a nuisance… so this probably isn't the time to mention your pet's penchant for digging through the trash).
This shouldn't be longer than a few sentences. Feel free to liven it up with personality, but don't be too cutesy. Klein reminds us that just like with professional résumés, the landlord is likely only to give it a 10-second glance unless something catches his or her eye or more info is needed. "Be professional, be informative, and most of all, be brief. We love our pets, and we all have a lot of cute stories to tell, but this is not the place for them," Klein says. "A pet résumé should tell us about your pets in a simple, easy-going, straightforward manner."
Image: Cathy Klein/PetResumes.net (Sample of a two-dog, single-page pet résumé showing how simple and straightforward the résumés can really be.)
She goes on to advise, "Start with all of the info you can think of about your pet, then whittle it down and try to present the most relevant information in the most positive way you can. Never focus on negative things. If your dog is a barker, describe their excitement and non-destructive joy of life. If your dog isn't up to date on their vaccinations, get them up to date before you write your résumé, and feature that. These kinds of things are important, and can even have legal implications."
Medical information — This is where you'll list info about your pet's vaccination records and whether it is spayed or neutered.
General info — This is where you put information about how your pet lives with your family. Whether it's litter box trained/house trained, deals well with unexpected visitors, participates in regular exercise or events, and how well your pet gets along with other animals (including those in your house).
Note: Never lie about your dog's history of aggression. As previously noted by Klein, some things have legal implications in addition to other housing concerns.
Photograph — This is really important, especially if you have a large breed or one that's generally thought to be dangerous. Nothing makes it look like a pit bull couldn't possibly be vicious than a tiara and a goofy grin. Props and costumes are OK if your pet doesn't react badly to them, and they can be a huge boon for black animals, which are notoriously difficult to photograph, but they aren't necessary.
Make sure it's a high-quality photo so it won't be blurry or grainy on the page, and you can resize it as necessary. I recommend taking landscape photos because they tend to be more versatile (you can crop them to a vertical shot if necessary), but be careful that there's not a mess in the background!
Additionally, make sure your pet's personality really shows through and that it looks fun or sweet and friendly. Klein recommends checking out animal photography tips if you aren't already good at it. But you can also pay to have your pet's photo professionally taken.
How to get out of writing a pet résumé
"There is an art and a craft to creating a pet résumé that works," Klein says, and after researching this, I have to agree. I assure you Klein didn't pay me to say this, but as a professional advertising copywriter myself, I can't help but feel that hiring a pro is the best option. As with advertising a product, as Klein points out, "… one wrong word or an overly busy, unattractive layout could make a potential landlord choose another tenant over you and your pets."
And now for the best news. Believe it or not, professional pet résumés aren't only for people who have too much money to spend. Klein, for example, charges between $32 and $55 dollars, depending on the number of pages and how many pets you have.

Edmund Spenser
Sonnet Xviii - Poem by Edmund Spenser
THe rolling wheele that runneth often round,
The hardest steele in tract of time doth teare:
and drizling drops that often doe redound,
the firmest flint doth in continuance weare.
Yet cannot I with many a dropping teare,
and long intreaty soften her hard hart:
that she will once vouchsafe my plaint to heare,
or looke with pitty on my payneful smart.
But when I pleade, she bids me play my part,
and when I weep, she sayes teares are but water:
and when I sigh, she sayes I know the art,
and when I waile she turnes hir selfe to laughter.
So doe I weepe, and wayle, and pleade in vaine,
whiles she as steele and flint doth still remayne.

About Me
My name is Erwin and I operate the MAYDAY! blog and family of RC-related websites. I live in Miami in the Sunshine State, Florida. I began flying RC in 2009 with a HobbyZone Super Cub. My interest grew more and more and, as my wife says, I'm obsessed with the hobby. I have always loved flight and RC so I figured I'd combine the two.
The MAYDAY! name came one day at a party when a couple of RC friends were trying to come up with a name for a club or group of flyers. We were all learning to fly and crashing was our priority, it seemed. "Mayday" sounded funny so we decided on it. Eventually only I took RC flight seriously and kept the spirit of "MAYDAY!" alive with a website and decals on my models and on my car. It is no longer a club by any means as it consists of me, myself and I.

text: Hi everyone, Ive used the search bar at the top of the page but nothing seemed to come up that speicifically addressed my problem. I have a pal wiikey and use GCOS for many US gamecube games, the trouble is it loads them (it comes up with the games little logo) then when I select the Game VIdeo Mode it goes to a green screen. But this is only for some US games, others seem to work fine. THe games that dont work are Battalion Wars, Pokemon Colleseuum, Soul Caliber II and Paper Mario - also Mario Kart Wii has randomly stopped working while all my other wii games work fine! If anyone could help id be very greatful - or if i missed something and this was already discussed in another thread a link would just as good thank you so much btw all the games are scratch free, and worked perfectly previously. I havnt played the wii in a while so i can remember if theres some special swap thing i need to do with a GCOS multdisc... which i have - thanks

Global Shakespeare Criticism Beyond the Nation State [Download]
Title: Global Shakespeare Criticism Beyond the Nation State Author: Joubin, Alexa Alice Description: To move global Shakespeare studies beyond the more limiting scope of nation-state and cultural profiling, I would like to propose we consider a number of critical concepts as methodology. These concepts critique the limitations of cartographic imagination, and connect the performance site to spaces of knowledge production: (1) the site of performance and the myth of global Shakespeare; (2) diaspora and racial tensions; (3) art in post-national space; (4) the ethics of quoting Shakespeare and world cultures; and (5) the production and dissemination of knowledge through archives.

Blogger's Quilt Festival
I finished this quilt just in time for my friend's wedding in October. One of my favorite parts of quilting is putting together a palette of prints. For this quilt I just wanted to use a pattern that would really feature the fabrics in a simple and classic way.
My friend's house is filled with a lot of earth tones and is very cozy. This is not my normal color scheme but I LOVE how it came out. What I did not love so much? Machine piecing hexagons! It was sooo time consuming, but so worth it in the end.
I also tried pebble quilting for the first time on a large quilt which was also very time consuming, but definitely the right choice for this quilt. This was a labor of love and I hope they love it forever!
Thanks for looking!

Very beautiful though the color scheme is not my normal, either. There is a way to make hexagons with strips - each "hexagon" is actually two pieces of fabric. I have the pattern in a magazine.ReplyDelete

Some car registration plates may be "invisible"
Around 5% of UK motorists have registration plates that are invisible to police cameras, according to Transport Minister Stephen Hammond.
Hammond told Parliament that the "undetectable" licence plates had been put into circulation due to a production technique used by one of the UK's top factories.
The method was discontinued as soon as it was known that automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras could not register them, Mr Hammond said.
The hi-tech cameras are used to automatically capture licence plate details and can aid police in finding and prosecuting drivers without tax or the correct insurance.
However, the Department for Transport estimates that as many as one in 20 cars could be carrying one of the defective plates, which cannot be picked up by ANPR cameras.
The problem was discussed in the Commons by Opposition MP Steve McCabe, who said that the car registration system needs to be improved.
The Birmingham Selly Oak MP said: "Hills, one of the leading UK number plate suppliers has produced millions of plates that cannot be read by many of our ANPR cameras.
"It seems likely that other suppliers are producing similarly deficient plates. Far from building on the technological lead which developments in ANPR should give the UK, we seem to be concentrating on providing comparatively expensive number plates which are of little value in terms of security or assistance to law enforcement."
The figures revealed by the Conservative MP could mean as many as 1.4 million cars in the country could not be traced by the police through the ANPR technology.

Despite having a legendary performer as the host–and not just a legendary performer, but a legendary performer of late night sketch comedy–this week's episode was about the same as every other week, which is to say that there were some pretty funny moments, and some pretty unfunny moments, and a musical guest, and a surprise celebrity cameo. Can we talk about THAT for a second? Justin Bieber, who was not scheduled to host or play music on the show, appeared in two sketches and prominently on the stage to say goodbye? Huh? It's not actually that impressive that Saturday Night Live is friends with famous people, so it would be kind of nice if they could ground their surprise cameos in some kind of logical context for them being on the show. (And maybe it's just me, but personally I think it's gross when Dana Carvey makes a joke about Justin Bieber's effect on little girl's vaginas? Even if he is wearing a pant suit.) Anyway. The saddest part of the episode was the very first second of it, when a pre-recorded Phil Hartman ghost voice announced the Wayne's World sketch. It kind of puts a damper on tripping down memory lane when you're immediately reminded that half of the houses have burned down. Eek! Oh well. As Deidra Wurtz would say, that is just the way it goes and we have to move on and it's tough for all of us but that's just how it is ok?
So, Wayne's World:
And also the Church Lady:
Do these old sketches hold up? I don't know. It's certainly hard to imagine a modern teenager watching the Church Lady sketch and finding it to be particularly compelling (much less funny). Even Justin Bieber probably couldn't correct for that. It is true that we still have a deep divide between the flagrant indulgence of popular culture and the rigidity of religious moralists, and there is probably some good comedy there, but it doesn't really work when it's also steeped in nostalgia. Wayne's World maybe fares a little better, although mostly it's just nice to be reminded that it existed. It's like how a decent Zwan song will remind you of a really good Smashing Pumpkins song.
You can never go home again!
In the grand tradition of that Unstoppable movie trailer parody they did a couple weeks ago, there was a parody of the trailer for The Roommate:
It's weird that more people will see this than will see the movie it is making fun of? It seems kind of like picking on someone way smaller than you. But it was funny. At the very least it didn't have any celebrity impersonations in it. ENOUGH WITH THE CELEBRITY IMPERSONATIONS ALL THE TIME, SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE! Good grief! Is this a generationally-defining late night comedy show that follows the zeitgeist in order to remain startlingly relevant over multiple decades, or an early bird dinner theater performance at a Florida nursing home?
This was the best sketch of the night:
And this was the best fake ad of the night:
Returning to the place where you once made a name for yourself will definitely earn you a hero's welcome, but it comes with a cost, because it's impossible not to also be reminded of the fact that everyone's kind of doing fine without you. And that the world has changed. When Dana Carvey created the Church Lady character, he was in his 20s. Now he's almost her age. It just gets real weird, real fast. That's OK. It could be worse. Ask Phil Hartman. (R.I.P.)

The Music department aims to encourage all pupils to develop their creativity and improve confidence and self-esteem through composition, performance and listening.
Key Stage 3
Students investigate a wide range of music, learning how to perform and compose in a variety of styles, including the Blues and Samba. They are also taught how to read and write traditional notation and are encouraged to compose both at the computer and by playing instruments or using their voices. All students are given the opportunity to participate in concerts, productions and instrumental or vocal lessons.
Key Stage 4
The Edexcel GCSE Music syllabus is followed where students have to perform a solo and in an ensemble, compose two pieces of music and answer questions on set works in a listening examination.
Key Stage 5
A level Music is offered as part of the consortium. It is similar to the GCSE but requires a greater understanding of musical theory and students must be able to read music fluently. Set works are studied in greater depth, together with composition, performance and harmonisation skills.
Visits and Extra Curricular Activities
The following are currently offered to all students:
Quavers and Crotchets Band Guitar Club
Teen Choir U-Kool-Elez (Ukulele club)
Musical Theatre Treble Makers (String group)
There is also opportunity for students to form their own groups.
The department is open before and after school, at break and lunchtimes for practice.

Node.js Tools for Visual Studio
Have they fixed the long file path issue yet? Node Tools for VS is unusable without long path support, given that even a relatively trivial node project's node_modules folder goes over the file path limit.
Handling billions of exceptions with .NET & Raygun.io
On the Linq slide, there is a performance comparison with some Linq code vs an imperative loop. But the two snippets are not equivalent. The performance difference is primarily a result of differences in algorithmic complexity, and not on the overhead of Linq. You could write an imperative loop that does a full scan of the dictionary and filters on the key and the performance of the two would be much closer.
In this case, you could take the imperative code and create a Linq operator and get the same algorithm complexity. You'd be left with only the overhead of creating an IEnumerable and iterating it:
public static IEnumerable<TValue> Range<TValue>(this IDictionary<int, TValue> self, int start, int end) { for (var i = start; i <= end; i++) { yield return self[i]; } } var results = (from x in dict.Range(2, 3) where x.Contains("2") select x).ToList();

Fun with the Interns: Santiago Fernandez on LLVM Based Optimizer for MSIL
SharpLang is an interesting project, and it's MIT licensed! I'm a little concerned that its stated goals are not as interested in standards implementation or multi-language interop (although it mentions emulating some features), however it is showing a lot of promise. I hope Microsoft continues to support the project officially and contribute back to it, as it could help speed up the adoption of .net on platforms where LLVM support is there first or is the most mature. Also, being MIT licensed, if successful it could enable more cross platform .net development from the open source/hobbyist/maker crowd. It might even replace some of the use cases for the .net microframework, maybe?
I didn't see pull requests from Santiago on github though. Is his work being done in a private repo?
Ping 181: Xbox One Shifts, Bounty Program, Surfaces in School, So.cl
One of the issues I have with online DRM being required is the fact that someday the console and ALL games ever made for the console would have stopped working, forever. I'm old enough now to have games in my collection that, if it had been originally released with online DRM, would no longer work today. At least now, users have a choice between the convenience of digital downloads or comfort in the fact that the physical disks they buy will still work years after the DRM for digital downloads is shut down. Without that choice, it's inevitable that a huge swath of cultural history is, at some point, going to be lost forever.
What's New in Windows Runtime for Windows 8.1
I soooo wanted the roboball demo to work! Presenting the content in first-person narrative was a little distracting, though I liked that it told a continuous app use case/story. Would have preferred a straighter, less scripted presentation in second person narrative, as if you are pretending the audience is doing the work and you're just guiding them through the process.
Anders Hejlsberg, Steve Lucco, and Luke Hoban: Inside TypeScript
@wkempf: In principle I agree with you. In practice however, it would be disastrous if IE came out with a completely incompatible specification, no matter what the reasoning. Projects like CoffeeScript and Script# do not have the time or resources to put into multiple source map generators. Then web developers will be faced with the problem that their tool of choice only generates source maps for chrome, but not for firefox or IE, or the other way around. Or, compiler writers will simply forgo source map compilation altogether because nobody can agree on a specification. The best case scenario is that they are similar enough that one could write a tool to translate a source map from one format to another, but that could result in a loss of information.
So, it would be better for all stakeholders involved if IE implemented the google standard, or else worked with both google and the Mozilla team to improve the standard together before implementing it, possibly even formalizing it into a web standards body proposal together. In this ecosystem, there is only room for one specification, so it's better to work together on it and not introduce a competing format just for the sake of inventing something in-house.
Anders Hejlsberg, Steve Lucco, and Luke Hoban: Inside TypeScript
I like the approach that TypeScript is taking in principal, but I have to be honest and say that there is zero chance this will ever be used by anybody in the enterprise without javascript source maps, because I simply CANNOT convince anyone to take these *-to-Javascript tools seriously without source map debugging support. Why wasn't this included from day 1? Chrome has had a working implementation of source map debugging for months, and the source map specification was available for months prior to that. FireFox has a beta plugin for it, but has generally expressed interest in supporting the same specification. IE of course doesn't, but maybe that's just Not Invented Here syndrome?
Also, I wish TypeScript were a "superset of a subset" of javascript, rather than a strict superset. One of the benefits of CoffeeScript (and 'strict mode', if it were properly enforced) is specifically that it breaks from JavaScript in many ways, eliminating some of the "javascript bad parts" and restricts you to just the good parts. For instance, as far as I know, all CoffeeScript code that compiles cleanly automatically passes JSHint/JSLint checks. I think if you took the type annotations and modules from TypeScript and added them to the CoffeeScript syntax, along with the Visual Studio integration with intellisense and live error checking, I think THAT would be a better language than either of them individually.
With that capability, you could implement a Visual Studio debugger extension for TypeScript running in IE that would let you you do breakpoints, step-by-step debugging, and watch visualization *IN* TypeScript (of course you could switch back and forth between typescript and javascript views).
Using the Windows Runtime from C# and Visual Basic
If I'm not mistaken, it's been said in the directx and direct3d sessions that directx is not currently exposed to C# through winrt, so the only way to access it is through native C++ code. I'm sure there is a good reason for that (performance), but even given those reasons, shouldn't WinRT have some subset of DirectX exposed through WinRT metadata to C#/VB/JavaScript? As it stands, the only way to create a 3D or non-trivial 2D game using C# is by writing your own abstraction layer in native code and P/Invoking it (or creating a native WinRT component). Xna's availability on Windows Phone has been a major component in the explosion of games on that platform, and I think even C++ developers would benefit from a higher-level abstraction layer than raw DirectX api calls, even if that layer is not Xna specifically.
C++ and Beyond 2011: Benedict Gaster on C++11, C++ AMP, C++ Renaissance
Another great video! Out of curiosity, is anyone on the .net teams (.net cf, coreclr, or clr) using amp to speed up jitted tpl/rx code? Or maybe the IE team using amp to speed up web workers based JavaScript code.

I bought an LG LED TV television 2yrs ago and it developed a fault during its warranty period. I reported the matter to the dealer who refused to address the issue. I then filed a formal complaint to the CPC who investigated the matter and directed the dealer to replace the 42inch LED TV. To my greatest surprise, the dealer replaced the TV with a 43Inch in place of the 42Inch TV because they didnt have any other option. I am proud of the CPC.

I bought a plot of land in Abuja from an Estate firm for a huge amount of money in Abuja. The estate firm refused to assign me the plot of land that I paid for and refused to refund my money for more than 2 years. They even dared me to take the case to the police or to court. I reported to the CPC and I got a full refund of my money without paying a dime to the CPC.

A medical equipment vendor had sold to our company a faulty product. After several failed attempts to get it fixed by the same vendor, we opted for a refund to which the vendor refused until CPC intervened and mediated between both parties. We are totally happy with the way the CPC handled this matter. CPC took it upon themselves to ensure we got our desired outcome.

I ordered 10 luminous batteries at the cost of N800,000 from an I.T company in Abuja. Unfortunately, the company decided to supply me a different brand of batteries from what I had ordered. I rejected this and asked for my money to be refunded to which the company refused. After a series of failed attempts to get my money, I lodged my complaint with the CPC and within a week, the Council directed the company to pay me back my money to which they complied. I must say that CPC can bark and bite

" I bought a brand new Toyota which had a manufacturer's defect but the automobile dealer refused to replace the defective part. After about 10 failed attempts to get the automobile dealer to respond positively, I reported to the CPC who mediated between myself and the dealer who agreed to fix the vehicle. I've not had any issues with the vehicle ever since. Thank you CPC "

ACLU files lawsuit challenging Kansas voter registration system
[JURIST] The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU [advocacy website] on Thursday filed a lawsuit [petition, PDF] in Shawnee County District Court [official website], challenging Kansas' two-tiered voter registration system. The US Supreme Court [official website] has ruled that laws requiring proof of citizenship for federal elections are unconstitutional, but it has preserved the states' rights to control who will vote in state and local elections. Kansas has set up a two-tiered voter registration system, which requires voters to show proof of citizenship to register to vote in local and state elections. The ACLU petition charges that eligible voters are being divided into separate and unequal classes [ACLU press release], in violation of the Kansas Constitution's equal protection guarantees.
The Kansas Secretary of State has, without statutory authority and without engaging in mandatory requirements for administrative rulemaking, unilaterally established an unprecedented and unlawful voter registration system that divides registered voters in Kansas into two separate and unequal classes, with vastly different rights and privileges (the "dual 2 system"), based on nothing more than the method of registration that a voter uses and the date on which the voter submits the form.
Arizona has adopted a similar two-tier voter registration system in response to the Supreme Court's ruling.
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach and Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett [official profiles] filed a complaint in August in the US District Court for the District of Kansas [official website] demanding that the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) [official website] modify federal voter registration forms to allow states to require proof of citizenship. The two-tier system in question allows voters who use the National registration form, which does not require proof of citizenship, to vote only in national elections. Voters must use the Kansas voter registration form in order to be eligible to also vote in local and state elections. Kobach lists "Stopping Voter Fraud" as the number one issue on his platform [personal website] on his political website.

PlayStation All-Stars Talks Single Player Story Mode
Despite it being clearly 'influenced' by Smash Bros, I had a lot of fun with PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale when I checked it out at Gamescom. The title seemed to have a perfect mix of addictive gameplay and Sony love, even if I did find it nigh-on impossible to actually get any kills! If like me you are looking forward to the game's release, these new details of the game's single-player story mode may just interest you.
CVG has printed an interview with SuperBot game director Omar Kendall, where he shares some information on the game's plot. When asked if there would be a story tying together the single player action he told them; "Absolutely. We take inspiration for our single-player story mode from traditional fighting games. You'll select your character, you'll find out what brings that character to the PlayStation All-Stars universe, what they're doing there, and what their motivation is. You'll play in a couple of different match types against various different characters, and then we have this rivalry system. This goes back to one of the very basic motivating ideas that contributed to the PlayStation All-Stars becoming a video game, which was the idea of fantasy match-ups.
"Like, what would happen if Ratchet and Clank met up with Jak and Daxter? We actually have a rivalry concept in the game where, during each character's individual arcade progression they'll meet a rival, and that will introduce Easter egg type elements. We sort of have fun with different characters. For instance, Dante in the game, his rival in the game is Nariko, both of those characters obviously being handled by Ninja Theory. It's little things like that we've played with. Then of course they'll meet at the end in what we're calling a "boss battle", but we're not talking about that. There will be a resolution there. Obviously the story of All-Stars isn't exactly canon, we don't want Kratos and Drake to go back to their universes and reference [our story], but we're having a bit of fun with it."
If the single player mode captures some of the PlayStation magic that will have Nathan Drake confronting Sweet Tooth for example, and if the promised DLC makes an appearance, we may be saying hello to a new classic when PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale is released in November.
Thanks to CVG

KOTA KINABALU: A longtime Borneo rights activist has called for the "demotion" of the Sabah Governor to TYT Yang di- Pertua Negeri – head of state – on Aug 27, 1976, to be reversed.
Jeffrey Kitingan wants the governor's previous position i.e. TYT Yang di-Pertua Negara – head of nation – restored.
The Bingkor assemblyman made the call in an op-ed piece carried by the Borneo Today website.
He was commenting on the governor's official birthday which was observed on Saturday, Oct 1, as in recent years, a departure from previous years when it was celebrated on Sept 16. The Federal Government has since recognised September 16 as Malaysia Day.
"I intend to re-table a Private Member's Bill to amend the Constitution of Sabah to restore the status of the governor to Yang di-Pertua Negara," said Jeffrey who is also Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku (STAR) President and founder of the three-party United Sabah Alliance (USA).
"It was rejected by the previous Speaker. He should be feeling remorseful for his unpatriotic act in rejecting the bill."
If the opposition state representatives were sincere, and the Barisan Nasional (BN) members patriotic, and they wished to see Sabah as forming Malaysia in an equal partnership with Sarawak and Malaya, he said, "we should see unanimous support for the amendment to the Constitution of Sabah".
At the same time, said Jeffrey, opposition MPs from Sabah could table a similar bill in Parliament to amend the Federal Constitution to refer to the Sabah Governor as Yang di-Pertua Negara, as the position was known from Sept 16, 1963, until Aug 27, 1976.
If so, he said, come Oct 1, 2017, all Sabahans would have a truly joyous birthday celebration for their governor, restored as TYT Yang di-Pertua Negara.
"Whilst Sabahans rejoiced in the birthday celebration this year, there was still a tinge of sadness," said Jeffrey.
"Our beloved governor was demoted," he wrote.
The first three governors after independence were known as TYT Yang di-Pertua Negara until 1976, when the Harris Salleh-led Berjaya Government amended the Sabah Constitution. A corresponding amendment was also made to the Federal Constitution.
"Only God and the Federal and Sabah leaders in 1976 know the real reason," added Jeffrey. "The status of our beloved governor was downgraded."
He recalled that it coincided with the downgrading of Sabah and Sarawak to be the 12th and 13th States in Malaya. "The Federation of Malaya has been masquerading since then as the Federation of Malaysia," charged Jeffrey.
On a happier note, he summed up, the official birthday celebration was now on a separate day and not on Sept 16, the formation of Malaysia.
Sept 16 was disguised as the official birthday of the governor, he said, "but in fact it was to celebrate Malaysia Day which was then not allowed by the Federal Government".

So, a few days ago, I hit my head twice, both time weren't particularly hard, and I thought nothing of it, the next day I woke up with a headache and was slightly dizzy, I also discovered this website later that day. Two days after that, I still had the headache and was still dizzy, and I woke up unusually early. So I stay up for an hour, but never fully woke up, and then I decide to go back to bed, this is when I had my first lucid dream. This happened yesterday. Based on the circumstances, I think that this was just luck that I realized I was dreaming.
That night(last night), I had trouble getting to and staying asleep, and overall had a horrible night's sleep. I went to bed and woke up about 4 hours later, then stayed up for 40 mins(thinking I may as well try wbtb because I was already up) and then tried to go back to bed, but had a hard time getting back to sleep. I then continued to wake up what seemed like every 30 mins with a vague recall of a short dream. after a while I got up for the day.(After I decided to get up, about 10 mins later I had no memory of the dreams that I was vaguely recalling in the time that I kept waking up)
My question is could the headache I am experiencing have effected my sleep on the occasion when I napped and became lucid and when I kept waking back up?

Eat healthy by preparing a perfectly wholesome meal by using a few low-fat ingredients and still eat right. Here are the top healthy ingredients that your kitchen must be stocked with at all times.
Whole wheat pasta. Carbohydrates are important for the body as they help in supplying the body with the due amount of glucose i.e. blood sugar for energy. The glucose is used by the body for its normal functioning and the extra glucose is stored in the muscles and liver as oxygen. Low carb snacks such as whole wheat pasta have protein, healthy fat and some fibre. It is suggested that you eat vegetables, fruits or eggs along with it for a complete meal.
Mustard seeds. Mustard seeds, when roasted in a pan, can make for excellent flavouring and is a healthy addition to any meal. Mustard is also used as a sauce or flavouring agent to salad dressings or sandwiches. About 100 grams is very low in calories; merely 66 Kcal. It is rich in nutrients such as selenium, magnesium and Omega 3 fatty acid. Eating mustard can boost metabolism by 20 to 25% for several hours after eating.
Parboiled brown rice. An ingredient, which just takes 10 minutes to cook, parboiled brown rice has high amounts of fibre, B Vitamins and minerals as compared to white rice.
Eggs. Full of iron, protein and vitamins, eggs help in keeping cardiovascular diseases at bay. They make for great additions to any meal – breakfast, lunch or dinner. An ingredient that can be prepared in multiple ways, eggs are a must-have ingredient in a healthy kitchen.
Lean beef. A powerhouse of zinc, Vitamin B 12,and protein, beef has high nutrition without giving you too much of fat content.
Olive oil. Olive oil is an oil obtained from the olive a traditional tree crop of the Mediterranean Basin. Olive oil has a very distinctive taste which overpowers/influences the taste of a dish to a great extent. Olive oil is well known for its many health benefits. It contains about 5 mg of natural antioxidants called polyphenolin in every 10 grams of the oil.
Cinnamon. Cinnamon enhances the body's cells ability to metabolize sugar by up to 20 levels. Nutritive value per 100gms of cinnamon is 26 calories. Mix with sugar, garnish over your milk shakes/coffees or just sprinkle over rolls. Cinnamon is also known to lower the LDL cholesterol of the body.
Oats. A perfect ingredient for vegetarians, oats help in keeping hunger pangs at bay, by lowering 'bad' LDL cholesterol levels and providing much needed fiber and protein content.
Ginger. Ginger has many medicinal properties. It is helpful in reducing nausea and vomiting when used with black salt. It is also helpful in curing cough and stomach ailments such as indigestion and flatulence. Apart from this, ginger has many weight loss properties too. An effective diuretic, ginger also helps in gastric motility.
Salad greens. Fiber is one of the most important constituents of our diet and is found in abundance in salads. The main function of fiber is to clean our system deep within, help propel our bowel movements and thus forms the basis of detoxification of our body. It's worth noting that when you consume fiber, your body burns ample calories in the digestion process.
Plain lowfat yogurt. The homemade versions of yogurt have a variety of bacteria. Every home has its own unique blend of bacteria in the form of its starter culture. Such a diverse mix of bacteria is hard to find in the commercially prepared versions which have either one or two strains of bacteria/beneficial micro-organisms in specified amounts.
Nuts and seeds. Almonds, peanuts, pistachios, walnuts, cashew nuts, anything goes. Grabbing a handful of nuts from the little bag in your handbag saves you a big amount of regret later on when you realize that you have binged on something that you should not have.
Skinless chicken breast. Jazz up your lunches or evening snacks by adding skinless chicken breast pieces to your healthy meal. They are high in niacin, B vitamin and protein.
Whole grains. Whole grains have more nutrients per unit as compared to their refined counterparts. They have more fibre and are good for gut health. Not only this, they are easily digestible, contain more antioxidants and help prevent many chronic diseases such as cancer,diabetes, obesity and constipation. Whole wheat breads, oats, wheat flakes, corn flakes and quinoa can be used as healthy breakfast cereals.
Sage. Known to have healing properties, sage is used as a medicinal herb for sore throats. It contains oxygen-handling enzymes, flavonoids, and phenolic acid. Added to tea or soups, sage has an excellent taste.

To Dao Nguyen French and all the people who helped her overcome a childhood of injury and bullying. The Vietnamese native suffered burns on her hands and face when she was 28 days old and lived through childhood as an outcast. But a series of fortunate events took her to Spokane, Washington, where she was treated by doctors who she now considers her adopted parents and to Murphys, where she now lives with her husband, Sonora dentist Michael French, and their children. Hers is a story of triumph over tragedy and the essential need for community.
To the Sonora Union High School Board for setting in a motion the next life for the Sonora Dome. This week the board voted to declare it surplus property, opening up a process in which organizations can place bids to buy it. Long empty and deteriorating, the dome sits high on the hill overlooking downtown, as iconic a building as the Red Church, possibly more so. It was built as Sonora Elementary, then was used as administrative offices for the high school. The process seems difficult — two groups of organizations must pass on it before the arts community gets a shot. We're still a long way from seeing it thrive. But the first step has been taken.
To the people who attended the Martin Luther King Jr. event, both those who came to hear the speaker and those who were opposed. It turned into an event that brought disparate people together and some had meaningful conversations.
To those planning the memorial on the east lawn of the Tuolumne Veterans Memorial Hall in Tuolumne that will honor victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and veterans who served Iraq and Afghanistan. The planning and fundraising began in 2015, and now it looks like it will come about after the Board of Supervisors approved its location. The memorial will include three stone plaques, a flagpole and a brick pathway.
In addition, artifacts from 9/11 will be displayed, including a piece of sandstone from the field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where United 93 crashed, a piece of steel from the World Trade Center towers and limestone from the crash site at the Pentagon
Perhaps it was the easy way to build something when someone decided Bonds Flat Road and the Lake Don Pedro-controlled spillway could co-exist. Perhaps planners thought it would never happen that the spillway needed to be opened and the road would need to be taken out. But then it did. And, yes, it's only the second time since the dam was built in 1971. But still. Is this the best way to do business? Tuolumne County supervisors are right to press for a bridge at Bonds Flat Road so when the controlled spillway is opened, the road will not need to be removed.
This week, the Sonora Police Department announced it had closed the investigation on the death of a pedestrian on Stockton Road, finding that the driver was not responsible. The man was not in a crosswalk. He was wearing dark clothing. The driver was not speeding. It adds up. What doesn't add up is why are our streets so dark. That is a particularly dangerous place, what with the Mother Lode Fairgrounds being located there and many people choosing to park across the street on Forest Road. This easily could be considered an accident waiting to happen. And it did. As the mother of the driver said, this was a tragedy for all involved. Better lighting is needed there as well as on Washington Street. It is almost impossible to see people crossing the street in downtown Sonora at night.
