We did it, you guys.
Now for either new levels of human achievement, or total apocalyptic self-destruction. Just like when they turned on the Large Hadron Collider.
1. An update
One of the lasting memories of the 2011 campaign will no doubt be the story of the girl who was tossed from a Conservative Party event for a picture that appeared on her Facebook account. There was even an ad about it, for crying out loud. And, of course, it now sits in the Viral Election history books where it can be reviewed forever by our children, and our children's children and our children's children's children. After that, who knows. It'll be up to our new alien space overlords to decide whether they want to keep the Viral Election archives (so I'll just take a moment to say to our benevolent invaders: please keep it).
Anyway, where was I? Something about how I don't have enough friends on Facebook. No, wait. No, sorry it was about Awish Aslam being banished from a political rally. Well, on Sunday, she got to meet Stephen Harper face-to-face so that he could speak to her about the incident and, one might have assumed, to apologize.
From the London Free Press:
After a brief rally at London Airport Cargo Terminal filled mostly with cheering supporters, Harper's campaign team summoned Awish Aslam and Evelyn Taylor to his Conservative campaign bus where he was waiting.
But though they boarded the bus excited, Aslam said she left "disappointed," because she did not get the apology she had been hoping for.
Huh. Instead, Harper talked to Aslam and Taylor about school. So, essentially, Aslam and Taylor's conversation with the man who will at this point most likely be re-elected as Prime Minister of Canada for the third time, was about as substantive as talking to your uncle at Christmas. Probably a bit more sober, but it's a similar cardboard interaction.
Over on Twitter, the CBC's Laura Payton had the story, and dealt with at least one skeptic.
That exchange sums up so much about the Internet, and ones like it take place every day without much attention being paid. But effectively, right there, we see truths about the digital community and its conversations. Three things can happen when you post comments online:
1. You can easily interact with people who are informed on issues and who are shaping the national conversation both online and via other media, and get a reply to queries very easily from informed people;
2. You can just as easily deride those same people for not knowing as much as you, an anonymous non-contributing zero armed with little more than speculation and an attitude;
3. You can be misinterpreted as being abrasive, when really you have a legitimate question.
That's basically how talking works on the Internet, everyone, thank you and good night.
Anyway, should Harper have apologized? Sure, but that's not really the point. The craziest thing about this story is the reason why he probably didn't. It would have been bad PR. And before you say the story was already bad PR, think about how much worse it would be if he tacitly admitted — via that apology — that his entire rule system surrounding his campaign was flawed.
It's for that reason that, I have to admit, I kind of laughed at Aslam's disappointment with Harper. I feel like someone should ask her if she's been paying attention. Since when does Stephen Harper admit he made a mistake?
2. The top Twitterers
I always like when solutions are given to me before I even knew I had a question. And just like when I learned the government is nosy and wants too much of my personal information when the long-form census was cancelled, I learned today which 10 Twitter users were re-tweeted during the final days of the election, even though I didn't care.
The Liberal party and Michael Ignatieff's personal account both made the list, but not the NDP, notably (so that will hopefully pre-emptively put to rest any theories about "social media" stirring the NDP rise, should it hold). Young liberal Adam Goldenberg also made the list, as did Elizabeth May, leader of the Green Party.
The list compiled by the Social Media Lab at Dalhousie University claims that the Top 10 were drawn from a field of 5,000 from the period of April 27 to April 30.
Some of those who made the list? Maclean's national editor Andrew Coyne, the CBC's Rosemary Barton, the Globe and Mail's Stephen Wicary, and CBC radio's Jian Ghomeshi. Also included was National News Watch.
Notably absent were such people as the CBC's Kady O'Malley, or Maclean's writer Paul Wells or CBC funnyman Rick Mercer. I also didn't make the list, but I'm sure you already knew that.
The list comes visualized by a cool infograph spiderweb thing that I actually don't really understand. It just looks funky. Check it out here.
3. Winning
As an iPhone devotee, I'm getting used to being asked how addicted I am to Angry Birds. The answer is basically: "No." No addiction. I have one that is already crippling enough (you're reading it), thanks very much. No need to add any more, unless they are the kind that have a widening effect on one's retinas.
However, this site is basically the best thing to come out of this election so far. Honestly, young Liberals, you've done well. You were late to the game, but my, oh my, this is entertaining.
I give you Angry Bairds.ca.
It's exactly as it sounds: Instead of pulling back a slingshot armed with a bird, you load up a John Baird and fire at will. What does he take down? Things like universal health care, the environment, the Charter, and students. Hahahahaha. Wow, that is sort of accurate? Ah, who cares. Just look at this:

Did you know that kids say the darnedest things? It's true! And I will be forever grateful that these happened safely ensconced in our house and not somewhere like...church. Ahem.
Scene: She is sitting on the floor taking off her shoes as is the rule in our house in a futile effort to keep the carpet somewhat clean (Oh HAI cat poop hanging off of butt fur). Me: "Noelle honey, please bring me your jacket to hang up." Noelle: "Mommy, I can do exactly ONE THING at a time." Me: "...I do say that, don't I? Well played my child. Well played indeed."
Scene: She has run into the bedroom while I am changing out of my nice (read: office work) clothes. Noelle (pointing to the hangers on the bed): "Mommy, what are those hooker things?" Me: "Those are hangers honey; hookers are something completely different."
Scene: Getting ready for bed, he spots a crucifix on my dresser. "Mommy, what this?" Me: "That's a crucifix from GG's (my grandmother who passed away a year and a half ago) house." Noah (reverently): "This Jesus?" Me: "Yes baby, that's Jesus." Noah: "Jesus is so COOL! He my best friend!"
Scene: Living room, about to take batting practice. What? Doesn't everyone? Me: "Okay Boo, put Jesus down, we can't play baseball with Jesus." Noah: "Why?" Me: "Because everyone knows he can't hit a curveball."
Okay, so that last one was all me but really, how can anyone resist dropping a Major League reference when the opportunity presents itself?
Now, coffee or cookies? The mid-afternoon slump has hit. Hard.

Dean Wiseman Interview.
In the rich Speedway Rider nursery of
the Hunter Valley, there is a groundswell of young Solo talent that is
screaming out to the rest of the world for recognition. One young gun who will
rise to the fore, given a little encouragement and further support....not to mention a
touch of luck, is Dean
photo courtesy of David Lamont.
Dean looks at home on a speedway bike, has a tremendous style, oozes confidence while on the limit, and can win from behind, but an injury from a nasty accident at a vital time of his career has slowed progress somewhat.
The nineteen year olds comeback after that horror crash has been peppered with annoying mechanical failures, lack of race opportunities and touches of brilliance. Deans last meeting in early June of 2000 at Gosford gave patrons a glimpse of what he can achieve as he diced with, and beat the master of the Showground, Mick Poole.
Dean will use that good finish along with fresh machinery as a springboard into the new 2001 season, and if all goes well, will no doubt be doing his own screaming.....................
Dean, for those who are not
familiar with your background, tell us a bit about your introduction to speedway and your
progression through to the senior ranks? :
... After competing in junior dirt track for 5 yrs, I was introduced to junior speedway after Geoff Watson (father of Craig ) saw me race in the 80cc dirt track class at an indoor speedway meeting. Geoff contacted a friend of a friend, organized and paid for me to do a junior speedway license test and then lent me the riding gear to race. Over the 3 years that I competed as a junior, he also built and supplied me with two bikes. The Watson families help and generosity is what helped me enjoy the sport and carry onto senior racing.
How do you personally feel your '99-2000
season went compared to previous seasons? :
...I had a shocker !. I suffered my first ever injury that kept me off my bike for over 5 months. A lousy broken wrist was the result from a horror crash at the Labrador track which not only saw me a bit broken, but included my bike, my helmet and of course my suit had to be cut off me...so it proved to be an expensive crash.
It then took me ages to get my racing head back on...I really only felt like my old self again on the bike at this years Australian U/21 championships in Tamworth. I blew up my Jawa engine a couple of meetings later and then tried out a borrowed GM that I just couldn't get right for myself. So yeah, the 99/2000 season hasn't been real kind to me.
What would be your speedway goals for the coming 2000-01 season:
What improvements could be made to the sport
of speedway in your area, where riders like yourself can progress?
...More race meetings, thats the bottom line. I don't get any extra time on my bike apart from race meetings.
You recently scooped more awards at the
Gosford Speedway presentation night, as you have a long association with the track as a
rider, do you have any thoughts on the new direction of Gosford under the new promoters?.
...Yeah over the years the promoter Terry Poole did a top job, but now that has been taken over by David Tapp. I think the meetings will be a lot bigger and sometimes better than ever. I've heard Tappy is bringing over a lot of international riders and that can only be good for the sport if riders like myself can get the chance to race with them.
Are you, as a top flight senior rider, excited by the way Speedway has really taken off in Europe and the U.K. since the inception of the Speedway G.P.s, and also the television coverage of the International and Domestic Leagues overseas?.
...I'm lucky my mum loves the sport too so she got pay TV put on at home and I've been able to catch a lot of the series. It's good to see other Australians competing, knowing that if they can do it, then someday I might have the chance as well.
Who would you like to thank for your Speedway
career thus far?
...Well I would very much like to thank the Watson family for getting me involved in the first place, my mechanic since turning senior Pat Kelly, Dad for keeping the money coming in, my Mum who has driven me to almost every meeting I've ever ridden at (whether I wanted her too or not ), my mates who take it in turns to come along and give me my push starts, and a lot of the older riders who have been there...done that, and don't mind giving advice and a helping hand.
Interview conducted by Peter Henderson and Anthony McGuire.

LSU fans honor critically injured Southern WR in special way
A group of LSU fans orchestrated a wonderful tribute to Southern University wide receiver and Baton Rouge native Devon Gales, who suffered a serious spinal injury last weekend against Georgia. The fans painted the letters "Pray for Devon 33" on their bodies to honor the wideout.
There has been an outpouring of support for Gales from the college football world. LSU coach Les Miles brought up Gales during his press conference on Tuesday.
"Real quickly, it would benefit us all to recognize people that are having difficulty," Miles said according to NOLA.com's Jerit Roser. "Devon Gales suffered a very severe injury on the weekend. He plays at Southern. He's a Baton Rouge native who played at Central High School. He's in our prayers. It certainly hits home when it's one of the local high school football players."

PRIVATE INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR PrEP IS ENDING
Private insurance coverage for PrEP may end at any time. If you have an eligible refill (especially if it is a three month refill) we advise you try to fill it as soon as possible, as private coverage is expected to end, and it may take some time for you to obtain a new prescription through the publicly funded program. If you have questions or need assistance in transitioning from private insurance to publicly funded PrEP, call HIM at 604-488-1001, and we can help connect you with a Health Promotion Case Manager who can help you navigate the process.
PUBLIC PrEP PROGRAM FOR GAY, BI, AND OTHER MSM: HOW TO ACCESS
Rollout of publicly funded PrEP began on January 08, 2018, but please be advised that there may be delays as the new program is implemented- especially in booking an appointment with a healthcare provider who can prescribe PrEP (and is willing to do so). If you have an eligible prescription refill, either through private insurance or generic importation, we are advising you to fill it ASAP to help cover your PrEP needs throughout these delays.
- If you are seeing a doctor, or would like to see a doctor at the HIM Health Centre on Davie, you will need an appointment. Please note that appointments are booked several weeks in advance, so please allow for this. Please stick with the appointments you already have booked, and do not double book an appointment or request a different booking. As we have several hundred clients in this position you will be transitioned over to publicly funded PrEP at your next scheduled appointment. Make sure you have enough medication to cover you until that time. Your doctor likely have gave you a prescription for enough medication to cover until your next appointment.
- For information about accessing publicly funded PrEP coverage for individuals who have prescriptions from physicians NOT listed above, or for guys living outside of Metro Vancouver, please see the "HOW TO ACCESS..." section below this one.
- For guys living in the Metro Vancouver area, once you are on publicly funded PrEP, prescriptions will be filled and medications picked up by you at St. Paul's Hospital.
- We do not want you to run out of medication, so if you are currently nearing the end of your current medication supply, have a current prescription with eligible refills, and access it via generic importation, we are advising that you should re-order an additional prescription while we await more details about accessing publicly funded PrEP.
- If you aren't yet on PrEP, remember that condoms are another very effective method to prevent HIV transmission. HIM has many different kinds of condoms available FOR FREE at all of our five health centres throughout the Lower Mainland, as well as many bars and clubs in the Davie Village.
- If you are concerned that you may have had a high risk exposure to HIV (like sex without PrEP or a condom with an individual who is NOT undetectable, and who is either HIV positive or of unknown status), PEP may be an option. PEP MUST BE STARTED WITHIN 72 HOURS OF EXPOSURE TO HIV TO WORK, and ideally should be started ASAP. Information about PEP can be found here: http://checkhimout.ca/PEP/
HOW TO ACCESS PUBLICLY FUNDED PrEP THROUGH YOUR OWN DOCTOR OR NURSE PRACTITIONER (including for guys outside of Metro Vancouver):
How to access no-cost PrEP in BC via the Centre for Excellence's Drug Treatment Program (DTP):
1. Visit your doctor/ nurse practitioner to be assessed for starting or continuing PrEP. Complete the required screening tests.
2. Your MD/NP will download an enrollment/ prescription form and complete it with your information.
3. Your MD/NP returns the form to the BCCfE DTP.
4. DTP reviews the request and fills the prescription. The medication can be picked up at St. Paul's Ambulatory Pharmacy in Vancouver, or shipped to a patient's community pharmacy elsewhere*
*Note: the approval and dispensing process is not same-day like most pharmacy experiences. Anticipate a week or more between when the requisition is submitted and when the medication is available to the patient

The UAIC Specified Investment Pool ("UAIC Pool") is a student-run fund that provides the opportunity for members to gain hands-on experience in investment management.
The principal objective of the UAIC Pool is long term capital growth, so that future members will have a meaningful amount with which to get "real world, real money" experience with stocks and bonds.
The UAIC Pool is managed by the Investment Committee, a group of highly able Commerce students, predominantly majoring in Finance.
All members are able to contribute ideas towards investment decisions irrespective of their position in the club.
General Investment Policy
Investment Committee Charter
The UAIC Investment Committee seeks investments that offer the prospect for long-term capital growth. In general, these may include Investments that, by reference to the purchase price, are trading at a discount to discerned underlying asset value or businesses with growth prospects deemed to be underestimated by the market.
In achieving this end, the UAIC Investment Committee will:
- Purchase securities at prices less than their intrinsic value as determined by careful analysis. Investments will be chosen on the basis of value, not popularity.
- Place little emphasis on forecasting the future course of the securities markets and instead focus on particular company and industry attributes. The committee should not substitute the particular; individual securities that are researched and understood, for the general, nor will the committee attempt to 'time the market'.
- Tend towards high probability, infrequent investment commitments in contrast to less probable but more actionable investment opportunities.
- Tend to purchase securities when general sentiment is pessimistic and prices in relation to value are low, and to refrain from buying securities in periods of optimism and high prices in relation to value.
- Tend to sell securities when higher prices no longer reflect the value ascribed to particular Investments.
- Temporarily hold a larger portion of assets in short-term fixed income securities during periods where committee requirements for Investment are not met.
- Neither participate in clearly speculative profit opportunities nor assume clearly speculative risks.
- The principal objective of the UAIC Pool is long term capital growth, so that future Investment Clubs will have a meaningful amount with which to get "real world, real money" experience with stocks and bonds.
- In order to achieve this objective, it will be critical to pay careful attention to risk (risk being defined as the chance of permanent capital loss) in the investment of 80% or more of the UAIC Pool.
- Since the Pool was established to promote the education of UAIC members, the Investment Committee will have the flexibility to invest up to 20% of the Pool in higher risk/higher reward, opportunistic and/or shorter term situations than are suitable for the bulk of the Pool, as above.
Investment Approach
In order to achieve the objectives of the UAIC Pool, it is anticipated that investments will be researched and chosen on a fundamental basis, and that most investments will be held for the medium term (one to three years) and long term (three years and longer) to minimize transaction costs.
- The UAIC Pool will only invest in New Zealand, Australian and international stocks, and investment-grade New Zealand fixed-income securities.
- The state of the economies/currencies where overseas stocks are held will be addressed as part of the investment research and decision-making process, but foreign currency exposure will not be hedged.
- The Pool is not to be leveraged, will not engage in short-selling, or deal in call options, put options, futures contracts, and other derivatives.
Other Terms of the Fund's Formation
All investment income (dividends, interest and realized capital gains) will be reinvested in the UAIC Pool and/or be used to meet the administrative expenses of the Investment Club.
UAIC Investment Process
The investment process begins from the standpoint that two basic criteria should underlie any investment:
An investment commitment should not be entered into if the terms of the commitment do not incorporate a wide margin of safety. Bringing the risk of permanent diminution of Invested capital to a minimum is the primary concern.
- The Investment will achieve a satisfactory return on capital and in so doing grow the purchasing power of the funds invested.
Detailed Research
Once a company has been identified as a potential investment opportunity, it is investigated by the analyst who will call on the resources available to the UAIC. These may include material from the company itself and its competitors, reports from stockbroking analysts and industry material. In reality, this information is available to all serious participants but it is the interpretative methodology and skill that really counts. The work concludes with a detailed report being written. This is then subjected to the scrutiny of the investment committee who meet to vigorously investigate the merits of the case. The purpose of these meetings is to expose areas of concern and potential flaws rather than to achieve a consensus.
The final decision lies with the committee. An investment will be selected for inclusion in the pool of funds if a majority of the committee members reach concurrence. In the event of a tie, the Chairman has the casting vote.
The investment review will highlight very specifically the achievements that are expected from the company being proposed. These vary considerably depending on the style of company involved, but among other things, would include sales and earnings targets. Failure to meet these targets would raise concern, and notwithstanding the price action, could result in the shares being sold.
Portfolio construction
As a consequence of the investment process, the portfolio will be built-up from a series of individual stock selections rather than pre-determined asset allocations. Care is taken to understand the inter-relationship of stocks within the portfolio. The number of securities held in the portfolio will tend to be relatively small.
When undervalued securities cannot be found, UAIC may leave funds in cash or allocate a higher proportion of funds to fixed income investments. Therefore, after a period when the markets have performed strongly the UAIC portfolio may hold significant cash positions.
Submit your ideas to us!

text: Chapter 15 A Puny Performa Chapter IN THIS CHAPTER: ■ The baffling history of Performas ■ What's different about the Performa ■ All about At Ease ■ How to use Apple Backup WHAT'S A PERFORMA? What is a Performa? At one time, you could have said it's "a Macintosh sold only through consumer stores such as Sears (and not computer stores)." But then Apple began selling them through computer stores, too. OK, so then you might have said, "It's a Macintosh with specialized system software that makes it easier to use." But then Apple made the special Performa features standard across all Macs (in System 7.5). At this point, you might have defined a Performa as "a Mac that comes with free software already on the hard drive, such as ClarisWorks, Quicken, America Online, and clip art." But then Apple introduced products such as the "Quadra 605 bundle" and the PowerBook 190 and 1400 series — you guessed it, non-Performas with that same software pre-installed. So, finally you might have mentioned the last remaining defining characteristic of the Performa line: "A Performa is a Mac sold with everything — even a monitor — in one box, for one price." 511 512 Part II: Secrets of the Machine Until Apple introduced the Performa 6220 and 6400, which are sold without monitors. That's why this is a puny Performa chapter — because there are scarcely any differences left between Performa models and those described in the bulk of this book. In the early days, Performa models essentially corresponded to mainstream Mac models. In other words, Performa 6115 = Power Macintosh 6100; Performa 6200 = LC 6200; and so on. Today, not every Performa has its standard Mac equivalent, nor does every Mac match up with a corresponding Performa. For example, there is no Performa version of the Power Mac 5400 or 5260. Conversely, the Performa 6290 and the 6300- and 6400-series models exist only as Performas — Apple doesn't make non-Performa versions of those machines. So, what's left to define Performas? ■ They still generally come complete with monitor, and nearly all models include a Global Village fax modem (either as an internal card or as an external Teleport unit). ■ Today, all Performas include a generous helping of commercial software (good software, too): Quicken, ClarisWorks, America Online, a handful of CD-ROMs, and many others. They also come with Megaphone, the software that lets the Mac be an answering machine and speakerphone, plus the Apple Internet Connection Kit, which is certainly the easiest way on Earth to sign up for an Internet account. ■ Every Performa comes with a CD-ROM disc that holds all system software (and the included commercial software), finally ending the cries of "Cheapskate Apple!" that rang out in the days when Performas included no system-software backup at all. However, the installer provided doesn't offer a "custom install" option; it lets you install only a complete System folder (or a complete hard drive-full). ■ The Performa system-software CD doesn't let you do a "clean reinstall" using the Ô-Shift-K trick described in Chapter 33. You must use the "hide the Finder" method (also described in that chapter). ■ The very latest, such as the 6400 models, include an elaborately produced multimedia tutorial. An overly energetic woman in her 20s jumps around on your screen, actually walking around in there like a four-inch pixie escaped from a screen saver, pointing out various elements on the screen and jumping around on the Launcher window. Subsequent tutorials walk you through the various special Performa features — the answering machine, CD-ROM, and so on. Chapter 15: A Puny Performa Chapter Incidentally: For information about specific Performa models, see Chapters 12 and 13. This chapter covers the Performa as Concept. C ASE H ISTORY PERFORMA STORES Neither one of your cheerful authors actually owns a Performa.Yet, we needed to take screen shots of the Performa screen in order to illustrate this chapter. Off we ventured, floppy disk in hand, to our nearest Performa-selling office-supply store. Now, Apple is perfectly aware that the worker whose normal job is selling three-ring binders and electric hole-punches is not, right off the bat, necessarily good at selling computers.This might be the reason why Macs have hitherto been sold at computer stores, where there are supposedly some knowledgeable people.You can ask questions.You can call up when something goes wrong. Therefore, Apple has made sure that the Performa buyer is going to be okay with his or her purchase. First of all, because there's no salesperson to call up with questions, Apple provides Performa owners with a toll-free telephone hot line, staffed by smart people who can answer Mac questions. Second, because the office-supply store is not about to do Mac repairs, Apple gives Performa owners a second toll-free number — this one to summon a technician to come to your house (or wherever the Performa happens to be) and fix the thing, for free, on the spot. This being said, we must echo the sentiments of many appliance-store Mac buyers: Yikes! On the day we went questing for screen shots, we approached the three Performas on display. All three were mouseless.We're not sure what kind of thug would steal a mouse, but, in any case, the clerk we asked shrugged and didn't know anything about it. So we went to a second Performa dealership.We saw two Performas on display — each had a mouse. But the clerk-person went ballistic on us when he heard what we were up to. He eyed the blank floppy disk in my hand."I'm afraid I can't let you do that," he said, putting his hand in front of the floppy-disk drive. We assured him that we were fully competent Mac users and guaranteed him we wouldn't harm the machine.We finally offered him $20. He took it gingerly, waved us toward the machines, and muttered another warning not to mess things up. But our problems were just beginning.We couldn't take our screen shot on the first Mac because its System software was deeply troubled. (The three complete System Folders we counted may have been responsible.) We finally took our screen shot on the other Performa. We even cleaned out some superfluous junk (A/ROSE, DAL, Caps Lock) from its System Folder as our way of saying thanks for the use of the machine. We felt sorry for the poor little machines — manhandled by the public and misunderstood by the sales staff. But it was, nonetheless, a thrill to see a real Mac in mainstream America, nestled among the pencil sharpeners and staples. 513 514 Part II: Secrets of the Machine The three original Performa features Until 1994, when Performas and other Macs began to resemble each other more and more, the specialized "p" versions of Performa system software (see Chapter 6) offered three unique Performa features: ■ One-click launching of programs from the Launcher window ■ Auto-filing of new documents into a Documents folder on the Desktop ■ Automatic hiding of background programs — even the Finder Today, of course, these features are available on any Mac. For details on these features, see "Launcher" and "General Controls" in Chapter 4. Figure 15-1 The Performa's General Controls control panel — before System 7.5 — had a different Desktop pattern control than the one found on other Macs. Historical Performa principles In addition to those Big Three features, Performas had a few other distinctive features. The General Controls control panel For a reason that's no doubt tied in to Apple's user studies, the non-System 7.5 Performa's General Controls control panel (see Figure 15-1) doesn't let you edit your Desktop pattern. If you like making the backdrop to your Macintosh environment a teeming mass of little letter Js, as your friendly author Joe did before System 7.5, you're out of luck. At least the patterns you do get are in a handy pop-up menu. Furthermore, using ResEdit, you can edit the Performa patterns, as shown in Figure 15-2. (Hint: Open the General Controls control panel and double-click the ppt# icon.) Figure 15-2 The original Performa patterns, represented here in shades of gray. The old Performa Control Panel Every Performa model made between October 1993 and the release of System 7.5 (the 550, 475, 476, 460, 466, and 467, for example) came with a unique feature: the Performa control panel. Chapter 15: A Puny Performa Chapter 515 T RUE F ACT THE MAC/PERFORMA EQUIVALENCE TABLE Exactly how much Mac meat have you got there in that Performa?

Note:Almost all Performas also come with keyboard,monitor,fax/modem,and about ten commercial software programs pre-installed;today,all Performa models have a CD-ROM drive. 516 Part II: Secrets of the Machine This control panel was responsible for several of the features originally created by the first Launcher (Finder hiding, Launcher opening, Documents folder-handling). But unlike the old Launcher, the Performa control panel let you turn these features off individually (see Figure 15-3). In fact, the Performa control panel introduced a pair of Figure 15-3 additional features: System Folder Protection and The Performa control panel gives you feature-byApplications Folder Protection. These options simply prefeature control over you Mac's Performa-like vent anyone from dragging icons out of the System Folder behavior. or Applications folder. If you try, you get a strange message about not having "enough access privileges" to move those icons. (Only the "root level" items — loose in the folder — are protected; you're still free to drag individual control panels out of the Control Panels folder, for example.) This feature, too, wound up incorporated into System 7.5's General Controls panel — although the bizarre and misleading message about "not enough access privileges" wasn't rewritten until System 7.5.3. AT EASE At Ease is a Finder-hiding gadget designed for those in control (a parent, a teacher, a service-bureau owner). It protects the Mac from those who are out of control (a kid, a student, a customer). At Ease comes free with the Performa, or can be purchased from Apple or a mail-order place. It has certain aspects in common with the Launcher, in that it creates a palette of jumbo icons that one click, not two, will open. But At Ease fills up the entire screen. Control Panels, the Trash can, and your disk icons are all hidden from view, making it impossible for accidental renaming, deleting, or setting changes to occur without the grown-up's knowledge. In its place, you see something like Figure 15-4. When you launch a program, the At Ease window itself disappears, only to reappear when you quit that program. In current versions of At Ease, each student/child/customer can have his/her/its own selection of icons installed on these screens. When the Mac starts up, it presents a list of all such setups (the list might say Timmy, Mom, Dad, Sissie, and so on), and you double-click to tell the program which configuration to use. You can even set up a "restricted Finder" environment for certain users, in which the regular world of movable icons, folders, and menus is available — but only designated ones. You, the administrator, decide which folders and files are visible and usable, using the At Ease Setup program. Chapter 15: A Puny Performa Chapter 517 Figure 15-4 What you see instead of the Finder when you're in At Ease. At Ease and the death of your hard drive The manual makes a big deal about the specific way to remove At Ease. It tells you that you must open the At Ease control panel and click the Off button before removing At Ease. It specifically warns you not to drag the At Ease files to the Trash. The manual doesn't, however, specify exactly what will happen if you don't remove At Ease in the officially sanctioned manner. Well, basically, you trash your hard drive. At Ease does something rather un-kosher when it installs itself: It modifies the boot blocks of your hard drive (the very first instructions that get processed when the Mac is turned on) to ignore the Finder and launch At Ease instead. Of course, if you've thrown away At Ease, the Mac goes on a wild-goose chase, and throws up its electronic hands in frustration. It gives you a flickering system-bomb icon in an empty dialog box — and, after a while, the blinking question-mark Icon of Doom. You can restart, hold down the Shift key, do whatever you want, and the hard drive won't come back. Sometimes, running the Disk Tools program can repair the damage. Other times, doing a clean system reinstall (see Chapter 33) does the trick. Much better, though, to avoid the problem in the first place: Turn off At Ease before removing any of its components. Or, remove it using its original Installer program's Remove option. Otherwise, you're asking for trouble. 518 Part II: Secrets of the Machine PERFORMA SECRETS us cl Ex These days, Performa monitors are pretty terrific — certainly on par with nonPerforma Apple monitors. But in past years, every Performa came with something called the Performa Plus monitor, which had a muddy and washed-out picture (compared with the Apple 14" color monitor). But as reader Geoff Alexander pointed out, if you aren't afraid to adjust the contrast and brightness controls, you can do much better. Turn the brightness all the way down, and the contrast all the way up. Surprise:You get a better image than the Apple 14" color monitor. Better color rendition, too. iv e Fixing the Performa Plus monitor The forgotten-At-Ease-password trick It could happen to you: You forget your own At Ease password. Holding down the Shift key at startup, of course, doesn't bypass At Ease. How can you get back to your Finder? Restart the Mac from your Disk Tools disk. Now just open your hard drive's System Folder,open the Preferences folder,and throw away At Ease Preferences. Now At Ease can't remember your password, either! Restart the Mac and you're back in business. A little At Ease surprise With At Ease running, hold down the Option key while choosing About At Ease from the Ú menu; you'll uncover a picture of the At Ease programmers. cl us Ex Ever wonder how a Performa's CD-ROM can actually start up the Mac? After all, there's no System folder on it. Look around — see for yourself! Perhaps to discourage novices from installing incomplete pieces of the System folder, Apple went to a great deal of trouble to hide the CD's actual System folder. It's not the one whose components seem to be in the System Folder Files folder (in the Hard Disk Files folder). The real one lurks in the Restore All Software folder, nestled among the hundreds of blank document icons called Data File 43, Data File 44, and so on. On various models, we've seen it disguised as Data File 46, 80, or 96. In all cases, some Apple programmer actually pasted a bogus custom "blank document" icon onto the System folder to make sure nobody recognizes it! (But view the window as a list, and you'll see the unmistakable folder icon return.) iv e The secret CD System folder Chapter 15: A Puny Performa Chapter C ASE H ISTORY THE TROUBLE WITH THE PERFORMA CD-ROM Nobody ever said that Apple's approach to system software on the Performa was perfect. Here are reader David Converse's particular complaints, to which we add,"Yeah — what HE said!" First on the hit list: Apple's cursed Performa CD (for the 6000-series models, for example). The included CD, with System software and bundled third-party programs, is an improvement over the nothing supplied with many earlier Performas. Unfortunately, it isn't a great improvement.To reinstall any software, the following steps are required: Boot from the CD (hold down the C key at startup). Run either the Restore All Software or Restore System Software program on the CD.Watch as everything is reloaded to your internal hard drive. Easy, right? Not so fast. Pity the poor Performa user who has replaced the internal drive with a non-Apple model . . . or who has reformatted the drive with a third-party driver . . . or whose internal drive is simply full. In the first two cases, the installer won't find the hard drive at all; in the latter case, it will show error messages and end up crashing. Furthermore, although the included booklet says you can reinstall individual programs from the CD-ROM, that isn't the case — it's all or nothing. Loading to a drive partitioned with HD SC Setup is OK, except that the installer will load to the highest partition (in terms of disk addresses) and, if that partition is too small, oh well. Apple should get a clue. Selling machines aimed at the non-computer-savvy public with crippled backup disks is sheer foolishness. 519

Got kids in school? What do your mornings look like before school and work? If it's anything like my house, it is usually scurry, hurry, scurry and hurry some more! We have five people running different directions with a dog barking at the cat who taunts him from high places. We try to fit in a morning devotional, but sometimes it's simply me whispering under my breath, "Lord, please help me." It really is an organized chaos…. Well, mostly organized.
One morning we were all running later than usual. I hear my 10-year old daughter yell from her bedroom to no one in particular, "Has anyone seen my pink sneakers?" I begin to think of all the places I might have seen her favorite pink sneakers, "Living room floor? No. Entry way? No. Backyard? No. Laundry room? YES!" So I holler back at her, "Check the laundry room!"
Then I start to become even more frazzled when my 9-year old son says, "Mom, have you seen my hoodie? I can't find my hoodie." Now you can imagine what my self-talk was at this point. And please don't lecture me about night before preparations. We actually do pretty good most mornings, but this was just an off day and my exasperation was growing.
As I am giving the "FIVE MINUTES UNTIL WE LEAVE!" shout-out, I am feeling like we really need to get going. In all my hurriedness, I look up and notice my daughter running through the kitchen and sliding in her socks around the corner singing as loud as she can with a big smile on her face. She gives a little jump of glee and exclaims "There you are!" as she sees her pink sneakers.
I furrowed my brow and thought to myself, "We don't have time for such nonsense. Doesn't she know that we are in a hurry?" And then it struck me like a lightning bolt. Time is going to pass at the same speed and we are going to accomplish the same things we need to accomplish no matter our attitude. We can be hurried and scurried or we can be happy and glad. My daughter had it down. She was being joyful and expressing glee. She was not going to focus on the fact that she could not find her sneakers. Rather, she preferred to express joy for finding them! She made me smile.
Of course we have time for such "nonsense". I felt ashamed that I was the window for the enemy to bring impatience and frustration into our home where it did not have to be. Wouldn't the world be a better place if we could all be as joyful as our children? All too often we trade our glee for the hurrying and scurrying of our world. And then as parents, we can sometimes use our exasperation to stifle the joy in our children's hearts.
So the next time your child is being joyful amongst the chaos, just remember, the expression of glee is Jesus in their heart! Embrace that joyful "nonsense" and maybe sing along with them.
Luke 10:21 (NIV):
At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do."

Artists similar to Dr. Blaster: St. Germain, Telepopmusik, Cool Blu
Dr. Blaster – Almost
Dr. Blaster – Green Mint
Dr. Blaster – Summer Breeze
Are you looking to uplift your mood and invigorate your mind? If so, "Music Therapy" is just what Dr. Blaster has ordered. His relaxing melodies are layered over soothing, trance-inducing beats that will captivate the listener while guiding them through a serene dream-like setting. Dr. Blaster's jazzy arrangements are elegantly mixed with hypnotic basslines and elements of hip-hop and downtempo beats throughout. His immense musical talent shines through on his all of his released albums which are available for free download.
Dr. Blaster grew up in Brussels, Belgium and was born in 1991. He played drums for awhile during his childhood and later became interested in producing music using various computer programs. He has been producing different genres of music for 7 years from dubstep and drum&bass to hip-hop and lounge music. He explained to Organic Sound,
"My brother, who was starting some audio engineering course, introduced me to computer music. This was a huge revelation! I have to say he taught me almost everything I know about music, and I'm grateful for it." -Dr. Blaster
Dr. Blaster's vision of music and the way he listened to it dramatically changed when he decided he wanted to produce his own music. When Dr. Blaster first started producing, he began to really analyze music which helped him form his own unique style of clean production. He said,
There are lots and lots of artist that influenced me, but to keep it short, and in "Music Therapy"'s mood, I'll say, "80's Casual," "UM (le villain)" especially with "Rare & Limited Beats Vol. 1," "heRobust," "Thriftworks" (Pillows in the Wood), "Onra," "St. Germain" and Gramatik's drums.
-Dr. Blaster
Dr. Blaster first started producing Electro music in the band "The Steppin' Brothers" (Arthur Tixhon, Solo 700, and Blaze Rod) from 2008 to late 2011, then he joined "Colonel Up and Mister Down" and produced deep/oldschool dubstep with the same guys.
He decided to slow down a bit with "Colonel Up and Mister Down" and started his own side-project. At that time, he was Koan Sound's biggest fan, and due to their influence, he began a hip hop project with heavy bass and big drum sounds. Dr. Blaster slowly drifted more toward mellow and chillhop vibes. He is currently working on some loungy tunes along with instrumentals for a couple of MC's.

Ludovico Einaudi – Divenire
Ludovico Einaudi – Nightbook
Ludovico Einaudi – Nuvole Bianche
Ludovico Einaudi is an Italian pianist and composer who embraces the meditative qualities that are present in the minimalism of contemporary pop. Einaudi is able to seamlessly convey the pure emotion in each instrument that plays a role to help complete each musical masterpiece. Einaudi started his career as a classical composer and soon began incorporating other styles and genres, including pop, rock, world music, and folk music.
Einaudi was born in November 1955 in Turin, Italy. When he was a child, he would always listen to his mother play on the piano and in time, he become intrigued with the ambiance in different musical notes. As a teenager, he started composing his own music by writing his first song while playing a folk guitar. It was not long before he found the prodigious influences of the piano, synthesizer and keyboard to be something he could never part with.
Einaudi composed the scores for a number of films and trailers, including The Intouchables, I'm Still Here, Doctor Zhivago, and Acquario in 1996, for which he won the Grolla d'oro for best soundtrack. He has also released a number of solo albums of piano and orchestra, notably I Giorni in 2001, Nightbook in 2009, and In a Time Lapse in 2013.
In 2006, Divenire, is a collaboration of piano and orchestra by Einaudi. The album also includes his critically acclaimed track "Primavera." It was recorded by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra with Einaudi, as the piano master. Shortly after its release, Einaudi went on tour to various places in the UK, playing both the music on Divenire and orchestral arrangements of his other works. The album topped the iTunes classical chart in 2006. In October 2009, Nightbook was released. The album saw Einaudi take a new direction with his music as he incorporated synthesized sounds alongside his solo piano playing. His newest album, In a Time Lapse, was released on January 21, 2013.

RJD2 – Smoke & Mirrors
RJD2 – Ghostwriter
Rjd2's music is a collage of hip-hop production that combines disparate elements to make for soulful, moody portraits of the world. RJD2 (born Ramble John "RJ" Krohn on May 27, 1976) is an American music producer, singer and musician. His sound is comprised of east coast hip-hop roots fused with funk and rock influences. RJD2 was born in Eugene, Oregon; and raised in Columbus, Ohio. He currently resides in Philadelphia. He was signed to the Definitive Jux label where he released two largely instrumental hip hop albums and has produced tracks for many prominent rappers. However, he has now left Def Jux and has signed with XL Recordings. His 2007 album, The Third Hand, is a striking departure from his usual style and features RJD2 singing and playing instruments on nearly every track.
RJD2 originally began his career in Columbus, Ohio, DJing in 1993 with a pair of turntables bought from a friend. He went to high school at Fort Hayes Metropolitan Education Center, where his mother taught dance, and graduated in 1994. He claims his name originates from another friend who referred to him as "Rjd2" in his raps, and the name stuck. Originally working the role of DJ in the Columbus rap group MHz, he later signed to Bobbito Garcia's Fondle 'Em label, releasing the self-proclaimed "mix CD" Your Face or Your Kneecaps. A year later he signed to El-P's record label Definitive Jux and released his solo debut album Deadringer to much acclaim. Rjd2 later collaborated with Columbus rapper Blueprint under the name Soul Position, releasing Unlimited EP in 2002 and 8 Million Stories in 2003. He released his second solo album Since We Last Spoke on Definitive Jux in 2004 and released Soul Position's second album Things Go Better with RJ and AL in 2006 under Rhymesayers Entertainment label. He still continues to produce tracks, working with many independent rappers, such as Copywrite, Cunninlynguists, Cage, DOOM, Diverse and Aceyalone. He contributed a cover of "Airbag" by Radiohead for the 2006 album "Exit Music". 2006 also saw the release of the collaborative record "Magnificent City" with Aceyalone. In 2007, he released the solo album The Third Hand on XL Recordings, which he toured for extensively in '07 and '08.
In 2009, RJD2 established his own label, RJ's Electrical Connections, and reissued Your Face Or Your Knee Caps, The Horror, and Since We Last Spoke as well as a box set entitled "2002-2010". RJD2's new full length The Colossus was released on January 19, 2010 on his own label, which is distributed by The Orchard. On January 7, 2010 a music video for "Let There Be Horns" premiered on Pitchfork followed by a video for "A Spaceship For Now" on March 3, 2010, directed by Michael Ebner, via SPIN Magazine. In 2010, RJD2 remixed indie rockers Yo La Tengo's single, Here To Fall for the Here To Fall Remixes EP which included remixes by De La Soul and Pete Rock.

Nightmares on Wax – So Here We Are
Nightmares on Wax – Keep On
Nightmares on Wax – Be, I Do
If you throw a little bit of acid jazz, funk and soul into a musical blender, the result is a rejuvenating chillout mix from Nightmares on Wax. This sound features downtempo roots with funk, soul and jazz influences. The name Nightmares on Wax is an acronym for NoW, as the music has been described as "the sound of N.O.W." to exhibit pure honesty and artistic freedom.
Nightmares on Wax consists of a English based DJ, George Evelyn, also known as DJ EASE (Experimental Sample Expert). Evelyn got his start in the music industry through an interest in hip hop and on joining a local breakdancing crew. George Evelyn currently resides in Leeds, UK while he became one of the brightest spots on the post-rave British techno map since the early '90s. Nightmares on Wax formed in the late '80s in West Yorkshire as an extension of Evelyn and company's b-boy crew the Soul City Rockers, NoW's first singles, "Dextrous" and "Aftermath," were both highly regarded as the latter shot into the U.K. pop singles Top 40. The singles laid down a good deal of the groundwork and inspiration for the downtempo experimental hip-hop/electro-funk artists in the following years.
After Nightmares on Wax dissapeared on a four-year hiatus, Evelyn resurfaced with a track on the Mo' Wax Headz compilation and Smoker's Delight basically an instrumental hip-hop album with a distinctively electro downtempo eclecticism. Evelyn stated in a press release,
"Soul music is the earliest form of hip hop. That's why I want to create it. It might seem like recreating what was done in the past, but what I want to do is merge soul and hip hop together. That's why I'll bring in the live aspect of what happened back then into current hip hop trends. That's the angle I'm arriving at." -Nightmares on Wax
Nightmares on Wax produced the first new track by De La Soul in several years, included on an EP (Sound of N.O.W) featuring the rap pioneers. Following not far behind was a volume in the Studio !K7 mix series. Two years later, Evelyn delivered his fourth LP, Mind Elevation. A longer gap preceded the release of his next proper LP for Warp. The Though So album was released as the final album for Warp in 2008. Although Nightmares on Wax created a sound that is not easily classifiable, the distinct chillout sound is what makes this artist a true expert in the musical craft.

Break out the incense, simmer down and explore the chillout-lounge aesthetic created by Thievery Corporation. Thievery Corporation's sound is comprised of mixing reggae-dub roots with electronic, jazz and bossa nova influences. The unsyncopated ensemble rhythms are layered over the sparkling clean sound of the reggae guitar, lead bassline, dreamy synth effects and horn sections. Thievery Corporation is known for their international style of music production that includes sounds and vocals from around the world. The international style of Thievery Corporation blends the global sounds with elements of conscious lyrics and vocal samples.
Thievery Corporation is a Washington D.C. based DJ duo consisting of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton. The group was formed in 1995 at Washington D.C.'s Eighteenth Street Lounge. Rob Garza and the lounge co-owner Eric Hilton created Thievery Corporation with the inspirations of their mutual love for club life as well as dub, bossa nova and jazz records. They both decided to take a shot at mixing all these styles in a recording studio. Surprised by the chill-lounge sound of their music production, Thievery Corporation and their Eighteenth Street Louge Music record label was formed.
Thievery Corporation has taken progressive political stances on various issues opposing war and exploitative trade agreements, while supporting human rights and food programs. The album titled, 'Richest Man in Babylon' reveals the group's opposition to the positions and initiatives of the former president George W. Bush's administration. They followed Babylon with 2005's The Cosmic Game, which featured politically minded collaborations with Perry Farrell, Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne, and David Byrne. In September of 2005, Thievery Corporation participated in the Operation Ceasefire concert, with the objective of increasing awareness to the devastation caused by the Iraq War.
In 2008, Thievery Corporation made awareness of the people's resistance movements around the world with their album, 'Radio Retaliation' — setting an open mind type of approach with diverse sounds from Jamaica, Latin America, Asia, and The Middle East. Radio Retaliation, which questioned the profit-driven mentality of corporate media, earned Thievery Corporation a Grammy Award nomination for Best Recording Packaging. From their press release regarding their album Radio Retaliation, Garza said:
"Radio Retaliation is definitely a more overt political statement. It's hard to close your eyes and sleep while the world is burning around you. If you are an artist, this is the most essential time to speak up." -Thievery Corporation
Following 'Radio Retaliation', Thievery Corporation has released a sixth studio album in 2011, 'Culture of Fear' — a cinematic sounding exploration into psychedelic space rock which blends elements of funk and soul, with a bit of reggae-dub thrown in for a nice upbeat feel. Throughout the years, Thievery Corporation has provided a relaxing refuge for fans around the globe with their hazy sound collections and chill-out lounge atmosphere.
