11 Sep Mari Nobre & Nobresil: Levitt Pavillion Pasadena
Posted at 20:11h in About Mari Nobre, Nobresil 0 Comments
Mari Nobre brought her talents & the NOBRESIL Brazilian band to The Levitt Pavillion in our town of Pasadena on Sept 6, 2015. Good turnout! Most photogs were taking photos near the stage, understandably. So I concentrated on photos from a distance, behind the crowd, about 60 yards from the stage. We don't need any more pics from me or anyone else near the stage despite the challenge of darkeness & the usual crazy concert lighting! Also, I noticed at least 2 people taking videos, so lookout for these if interested.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 65423
"up2date -f" does not update skipped packages on first attempt
Last modified: 2015-01-07 18:56:17 EST
From Bugzilla Helper: firstname.lastname@example.com instead of potatoes!
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 ({not very}compatible; M$IE 5.5; Windoze NT 5.0;
Description of problem:
On a freshly installed 7.3 system, running "up2date -fu" (or "up2date -nox -fu"
which I was told is overly verbose) for the very first time does NOT update
packages marked as skip. It does list packages marked as skipped by the
configuration (as though -f were ignored).
Running the same command (i.e. hitting hte up arrow and enter) does, in fact,
force update on (all) the packages as expected.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load tasty fresh Red Hat 7.3
2.Run "up2date -fu" and watch for the skippage
3.Re-run "up2date -fu" and see those skipped in #2 get installed
Actual Results: System was updated and happy; user was puzzled but now
enlightened by Bugzilla
Expected Results: I would imagine that it should have forced update the first
time I asked.
Additional info:
None, but thaks for asking. If it matters, I verified this on:
Abit VP-6 with Dual PIII-800s
Compaq Proliant DL320
IBM Netfinity 7000 M10 with single CPU
Some generic PII-350 under a desk around here
erk. bizzare.
Looking though the code, I dont see anything that looks
like it might fail that way, but thats easy to miss.
first impression was that maybe userhelper was swallowing
the "-f". But I've never seen problems with that before,
and I wouldnt think it would work on the second try if
that was the case.
second thought was perhaps the client is storing the
"-f" value in the config, and reading it the second time.
But looking though the code, it doesnt look that should
effect it (if anything, it would use "force" and write
it out). Whats the "forceInstall" value in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
set to?
at the moment, thats the only two possiblities that come to mind...
Contents of /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date:
(default from install - I didn't change anything)
# Automatically generated Red Hat Update Agent config file, do not edit.
# Format: 1.0
storageDir[comment]=Where to store packages and other data when they are
headerCacheSize[comment]=The maximum number of rpm headers to cache in ram
httpProxy[comment]=HTTP proxy in host:port format, e.g. squid.redhat.com:3128
debug[comment]=Whether or not debugging is enabled
useGPG[comment]=Use GPG to verify package integrity
networkRetries[comment]=Number of attempts to make at network connections
before giving up
removeSkipList[comment]=A list of package names, optionally including wildcards
that up2date will not remove
retrieveOnly[comment]=Retrieve packages only
keepAfterInstall[comment]=Keep packages on disk after installation
enableProxy[comment]=Use a HTTP Proxy
gpgKeyRing[comment]=The location of the gpg keyring to use for package checking
proxyUser[comment]=The username for an authenticated proxy

configuration data are automatically installed

noBootLoader[comment]=To disable modification of the boot loader (lilo, silo,
systemIdPath[comment]=Location of system id
serverURL[comment]=Remote server URL
pkgSkipList[comment]=A list of package names, optionally including wildcards,
to skip

with when run in batch mode
forceInstall[comment]=Force package installation, ignoring package, file and
config file skip list
fileSkipList[comment]=A list of file names, optionally including wildcards, to
retrieveSource[comment]=Retrieve source RPM along with binary package
I see this too. When first run of up2date, it ignores -f switch. I used:
up2date -u -f
but kernel and imap has not been updated (like without -f switch).
I have no idea, and have never been able to duplicate this.
The newest version of the client also includes a new config
system and a new commandline parsing system, and I
can seem to duplicate it there either, so I'm closing this out.
An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report.
This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information

"I have done several training courses during my professional life and this one has to be close to the top in terms of satisfaction (just a note, I normally don't give 10's in any surveys). The trainer deserves a special mention: he clearly knew what he was explaining and always was gave the impression of being in control of the timing, contents and what we were seeing at the labs."
"Amazing course. Top quality content, lab environment and highly skilled instructor. A must for security analysts and engineers."
"I have had many training courses through various companies over the last couple years and this was by far the best. I felt the course was well planned and executed. The instructor was very knowledgeable, patient and presented the material perfectly."
"I've been in IT for almost 20 years. I'm a CCIE DC and have been through tons of training classes, conferences and seminars. It's easy to get distracted or what to do other things with an online class but the instructor's tempo and the way the course is designed kept me engaged. Also, there is a great balance between lecture and labs. Great stuff."

There is a chance you will have two different instructors. We can not guarantee the same instructor. This is a great opportunity for you to learn from two experts.
Please check the expiration date of your purchase. Both parts of the training must be completed by that expiration date.
No substitutions: One person must take the entire course, no changing attendee after the split.
We do everything possible to make sure that the experience in both methods is equally great.
Some people insist that they want to be face to face with the instructor; others don't have the ability or desire (or the extra time required) to travel. Some prefer to go in person because it gets them out of the office and away from interruptions. Others prefer the class through the live online method because they can continue to maintain reasonable control over their work while focusing on the class.
All the students have access in the same way to the remote labs. All students can communicate (through chat or voice) with the instructor. Students can even communicate with their classmates through chat – that can often lead to some great information sharing.
We study the customer satisfaction scores carefully and believe that students in both delivery methods are equally satisfied. The great majority of our student choose the Live, Online option. Please contact us at [email protected] for more information.

Changes Abound for Loons Front Office
Three new additions to the staff, along with other restructuring
By Great Lakes Loons | December 5, 2017 1:40 PM
MIDLAND, Mich. - Since the conclusion of the 2017 Minor League Baseball Season, the Great Lakes Loons front office has undergone some change with the addition of three new members and four others shifting into new positions.
Thom Pepe, who just finished his fourth season with the organization, has moved into the role of Assistant General Manager of Ticket Sales. In this role, he will be responsible for the daily management of all aspects of the Loons ticket department. Thom came to the Loons in 2014 after serving in a number of professional capacities within the fields of business, education, and medicine. He prides himself on providing and modeling the very best customer service possible.
Three staff members have also begun serving in elevated roles in the last few months: Tony Garant, Group Venue Sales Manager; Tyler Kring, Director of Partnership Activation; Sam PeLong, Group Ticket Sales Manager.
A fixture in the Loons ticket department since 2010, John Metevia has joined the staff in a full-time capacity as the Ticket Operations Manager. John will work with the ticket staff to sell ticket packages, group tickets, and individual tickets while focusing on the technical aspect of the ticket department. John is also the past chairman of the City of Midland Parks and Recreation Commission.
Riley Paulus joins the Loons as the Group Ticket Sales Coordinator after receiving his degree in Sport Management from Central Michigan University. Riley will work with churches, schools and youth organizations in the scheduling of group reserved box and lawn outings. Riley had previously held internships with CMU Athletics and the Iowa Cubs (Triple-A).
Born and raised in Midland, Nicole Wilson has joined the Michigan Baseball Foundation staff as the Program Manager with Momentum Midland. After graduating from Western Michigan University, Nicole has spent time with Downtown Kalamazoo Incorporated and the Midland Area Community Foundation.
The Great Lakes Loons are the 2016 Midwest League Champions and have been the Single-A partner of the Los Angeles Dodgers since 2007.

While many were marveling at the words of Meryl Streep at Sunday night's Golden Globes, I was (nearly) rolling on the floor laughing.
A comedic exchange on a Netflix show featuring two Latinas - mom and adult daughter characters - was far more entertaining. And empowering.
Netflix's latest reboot offering is a remix of the 70's sitcom, One Day At A Time, but with a distinctly Hispanic spin. The show features two powerhouse Latina actresses - Justina Machado as single working mom and war veteran, Penelope Alvarez, and the legendary Rita Moreno as Penelope's semi-hip, yet old-school Cuban mother, Lydia.
Lydia lives with daughter Penelope and her two kids helping to manage the day-to-day challenges of the household all the while still maintaining a connection to their Cuban roots.
A common subject throughout this first season is Elena's (Penelope's daughter) quinceañera - a Hispanic girl's coming-of-age celebration. While this is part of their Cuban heritage, it faces an uphill battle with modern, feminist-minded Elena.
Moreno's character Lydia is what you would expect from a traditional abuela. The quinceañera is very much about the pomp, circumstance and religion. Elena views the whole spectacle as sexist and out-of-touch with today. Penelope is caught in the middle, prompting…."loud discussions" throughout the series. (You'll have to watch the series to see how it turns out.)
Now it's not to say that this is how it is in all Hispanic/Latino families, but the passionate, emotional yet real interactions between the characters reminded me of home. They say what they feel, often without filter, because they believe in it. Truth matters, but pride has a way of asserting its authority over all.
That pride, that Hispanic pride, can get in the way of being honest with one's self.
During the first episode, Penelope emotionally expresses her feelings to Lydia about being single. Penelope feels alone, especially at night -- 'there's no one there to spoon with.'
Pride is laid aside and Lydia comforts Penelope. That moment later led to my rolling on the floor moment.
Lydia walks into Penelope's bedroom and says to a sleeping Penelope, "Move over." Penelope (startled) wakes up and says, "What? What are you doing here?" Lydia responds, "I'm going to spoon you."
The delivery of that line by Moreno was everything. Loving, sarcastic and sincere.
When I first saw Rita Moreno - yes, I'm dating myself here - it was in the PBS show Electric Company. Moreno is the one who comes out at the show's open and yells, "HEY YOU GUYS!"
As a little kid, something about that made me laugh.
OK, I guess you had to be there.
That was my first introduction to this talented Latina. The next time I saw her was during an old Saturday afternoon movie-watching day on television. There she was with that thick, Latina accent that I grew up hearing within my own family.
Perhaps a bit exaggerated but… The role of Anita in the 1961 movie adaptation of the Broadway hit West Side Story earned Moreno an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. It was the first of several accolades this Puerto Rican-born actress has received in her career.
She is one of only 12 people in entertainment history to win the EGOT: an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award. She is the only Hispanic to do so.
The 85-year old Moreno began her career in the 50's. She has starred with the likes of Gene Kelly and Yul Brynner in film and Jack Weston and F. Murray Abraham on stage.
And yet in 2017, here she was on today's version of television, Netflix, stealing scenes like she has done her entire career. And... Making me laugh.
It hasn't always been easy for Moreno, navigating Hollywood and the entertainment industry.
Fighting against the stereotypes of the 50's, 60's and 70's, Moreno struggled to find a role, even a Latina role, that wasn't secondary. "Before West Side Story I was always offered the stereotypical Latina roles," she told the Miami Herald in 2008. "The Conchitas and Lolitas in westerns. I was always barefoot. It was humiliating, embarrassing stuff. But I did it because there was nothing else."
There was nothing else. Think about that. There was nothing else for an actress the caliber of Moreno. The lack of opportunity and diversity that plagued Hollywood during Moreno's early years is still lacking today.
Despite Hollywood including "outsiders and foreigners" as Streep stated on Sunday night, it still seems lacking in opportunity and diversity.
Some hailed the Golden Globes for their diversity with proper recognition toward Viola Davis, Tracee Ellis-Ross and others. If the definition of diversity means black and white", then I guess they were diverse.
But, if diversity means everyone (Caucasian, African-American, Latino, Hispanic, Native American, Asian, Arabic, Slavic, South Asian, etc.) is given equal opportunity, then no.
The same issues that plagued Moreno last century are still prevalent this century. That's why a show like One Day At A Time is so important. It's important to make and to support shows that feature Latinos. Or Native Americans. Or Asians. Or....
To redefine the narrative of diversity in today's society, we need to champion and support efforts like One Day At A Time whether it is "our own" or others. It is only when we stop tearing each other down to raise up "our own" will we move beyond talking diversity and actually living it.

Son has lower back pain by tail bone. 9 yr old. Hasn't pitch a whole lot but did go 4 innings last game of season fall. 1 5 pitch inning. Probably threw as hard as he could.
Lower back pain 9yr old
Sorry to hear that. Possibly his mattress? A foam mattress can really help. Definitely get it checked out by a doctor though.
I hear ya. We ordered the sleep number by Sealy. I was hoping it would be something like that also. Just go away in few days. Spasm Orr strain. 12 days now. He's going to see his regular physician in a few days. I see more kids with arm pain his age so this caught me off guard. I'll let ya know. Thanks
Finally got it checked out. First regular doctor and X-ray saw nothing. But they referred us to a child orthopedic specialist probably to clear them. Saw him today and X-ray and test all negative. 3 weeks of aching for 9 yr old didn't seem normal. Plus rubbing felt nice bumb almost boney feeling. It would also throb when pressed. Nurse practitioner felt same way about it.probably why we had to see specialist. If it would have been crack it would have been 3 months off activity and that heals it 95% of the time. The other 5% surgery. This was just a bad little strain. Had it went away in a week probably wouldn't have had it checked. 9 is young for spine cracks. Lesson I learned is more lower back and hamstring stretching before games or pitching. Kids don't really stretch much or any at all. His hamstring are really tight. I never really stretched much in youth sports. Not till about Highschool. They always arms up the kids arms pitching or not. So stretch the back and hammy before they hit the mound. Thanks Steven for encouraging me to get it checked out. Even though both of us didn't believe it was much. I feel much better moving forward. Thanks.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 149897
Make "Add..." button names consistent
Last modified: 2015-04-19 20:46:49 EDT
Description of problem:
Minor enhancement:
For the âAdd...â buttons in âCluster Nodesâ, âFence Devicesâ,
âFailover Domainsâ, and in the Fence Configuration dialog box (Cluster
-> Cluster Nodes -> <node name> -> Manage Fencing For This Node),
either include or exclude the article âaâ for consistency. For
example, in âCluster Nodesâ, the âAdd...â button is âAdd a Cluster
Nodeâ; in âFence Devicesâ, the âAdd...â button is âAdd Fence Deviceâ.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fixed in 0.9.12
We now have:
"Add a Cluster Node"
"Add a Fence Device"
"Add a Failover Domain"
"Create a Resource"
"Create a Service"
Do we want consistency wrt Add/Create as well?
Changed 'Add a failover domain' to 'Create a failover domain', with the policy
being nodes and fence devices are actual things, so they cannot be created, but
resources, services, and failover domains are abstract software concepts that
CAN be created by the interface.
Fixed in 0.9.17-1.0
the "Create a Failover Domain" uses the "Add..." icon, we're almost consistent
but not just yet.
Fixed in 0.9.36
fix verified in 0.9.36.

OrbitSkinz G2 Housings!
Generation 2 OrbitSkinz housing is similar in size to our first generation OrbitSkinz with all of the known problems resolved.
Multiple Chips! Multiple Batteries! These housings will fit to both CR1616, CR1620, CR2016 batteries (for certain chips that generally use CR2016)!
We took our 1st Generation OrbitSkinz and made the material softer so that it will work with both clicker and dome style buttons!
Compatible Chips:
- 1-Modes
- 6-Modes
- MicroNovas
- Inovas
- SKY Series
1st Generation OrbitSkinz were known to have LED bulb situations where they were being pulled out accidentally thru the front, and this has been resolved!
Our G2 and MicroSkinz have a built in LED Spacer for a stronger hole, the LED bulbs will no longer be able to get pulled out accidentally thru the front of the housing. MicroSkinz are slightly smaller than Micromax housings; just enough that its better but not too small. Remember, SMALLER IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER, sorry to those of you with cute, tiny, little... lights! =) We got feedback from a lot of people and they said that the smaller lights that they have tried slide off their fingers. So we made sure to reduce the size but not so much as to lose its ability to adhere to the fingernail bed.

The fourth annual Chicago Ideas Week conference on food, held at the Cadillac Palace Theatre on October 15, was called Food: Path to Your Plate. As the name suggests, the conference focused on the story of menu ingredients. Some of the key takeaways included the importance of farmer-chef relationships; biodiversity; GMO (genetically modified organism) labeling; and food as culture.
The first speaker was celebrity chef and restaurateur Mario Batali, who excitedly discussed the benefits of using seasonal produce. He explained how utilizing seasonal—even "odd"—produce purchased from a family farm encourages biodiversity. Even if chefs are unfamiliar with a particular piece of produce, Chef Batali insists that if you "put anything in the oven with oil and salt for 20 minutes, it will taste good." This type of local sourcing can also be more cost-efficient.
Mario Batali at Chicago Ideas Week
Stephanie Izard, famed chef and Chicago restaurateur, participated in a discussion with her farmer Marty Travis of Spence Farm. Her top recommendations to restaurateurs were to get to know their farmers, visit the farms and ask questions, particularly about the animal feed and farming methods used. She also suggested checking to see if there are any additional produce items available for purchase at different times of the year.
Stephanie Izard at Chicago Ideas Week
Gary Hirshberg, co-founder of Stonyfield Farm; Errol Schweizer, the executive global grocery coordinator for Whole Foods Market; and Mitchell Davis, executive vice president of The James Beard Foundation, were also on the panel.
Gary Hirshberg's presentation expectedly focused on the U.S.'s GMO labeling policies; he's currently the driving force behind the campaign JustLabelIt.org, lobbying for stricter labeling legislation. He discussed how his campaign is not an anti-GMO effort, but a fight for ingredient transparency. Errol Schweizer, who provided a retail perspective on organic food, said he strives to hold suppliers to even higher sustainability standards than those provided by the organic label.
Mitchell Davis finished up the conference with a slideshow on food and culture. He proposed that changing tastes spawn food trends, which sometimes then create permanent structural changes in the food industry. As tastes become increasingly complex and articulated (think of wine and coffee flavor nuances), the need for differentiated flavors and food and beverage specialists emerges. Changing tastes effectively transform commodities into culture.
The common theme uniting each presenter seemed to be the necessity of communication between food and people: food should tell a story. Where did it come from? How was it harvested? Who supplied it? How is it prepared?
This theme is especially relevant to today's foodservice industry. Technomic's recently published Healthy Eating Consumer Trend Report shows that most consumers want restaurants to be more transparent about menu-item ingredients. Restaurants and retailers alike can choose to initiate open dialogues with their suppliers and pass these stories onto their consumers.

Powers of Attorney
Did you know you can grant a friend, family member or professional advisor powers to make decisions on your behalf and in your best interests?
Mackarness & Lunt can advise you on existing Enduring Powers of Attorney and if you need to put in place Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) to enable others to speak for you.
There are two types of LPAs:
1. For Financial decisions which allows your attorney authority to deal with your property and finances when you have or when you lack mental capacity.
2. For Health decisions which allows your attorney to make welfare and health care decisions on your behalf, only when you lack mental capacity to do so yourself. This could also extend, if you wish, to giving or refusing consent to the continuation of life sustaining treatment.
Should you face health issues in the future, you'll want a person, or people that you can trust to make decisions on your behalf. You may need someone to make a decision about your health and day to day living arrangements, or to help you deal with bills, savings/investments, property and other financial affairs.We can help you choose the right Attorney(s) to manage your finances, property and welfare issues, ensuring the appropriate restrictions and levels of authority.
Mackarness & Lunt can help outline the duties of attorneys, oversee implementation and handle registrations with the Office of the Public Guardian. Our clear bespoke advice will help you safeguard your affairs for the future. If you need help or would like further information please contact Michael Parr or Sarah Baker

text: Hi guys, after such a warm welcome on here and the request for pointers on the FR-V for prospective buyers, I thought I would share what I have found on other forums - so here goes! 1) Soft paint - it would seem from comments on here that ALL Honda paint is soft. Mine is vivid blue and has graffiti scrawled on the hatch and several small scratches around the door handles. 2) 2.2 I-CTDI engine not reliable (thanks for that one Ichiban!) - can't comment on mine as low mileage and only had it three months - but consensus seems to be don't chip/tune it and keep it well serviced with the right oils and you will have no problems. 3) DMF and clutch fail - see above re tuning. I was concerned to read this as I bought the car as a tug for a largish caravan and the cost of Mondeo clutches had put me off buying the Ford. Time will tell !4) Clutch pedal creaks - mine does this occasionally, usually in town. I have read that changing the fluid will help - but also that the only fix is a new master cylinder. I shall change the fluid first. I am going deaf but the vibration through the pedal is annoying! 5) Front tyres last only 12k miles - my last two runabouts were bought new, a 1998 Suzuki Swift 1 I had 7 years/ 87k miles, did 44k on the first set and the second were still on, and a 2005 Toyota Yaris 1 that did 44k in 7 years on the original set - so this will be a shock! My FR-V has now done 27k and is well down its second set of fronts so they have gone on the back and the original rears are being worn out up front as they would have been due for a change soon due to age. 6) Steering drifts/pulls left to follow camber - yep, mine does this slightly but it is not a problem as you soon get used to it. The tyre swap did make it worse for a while but it has settled down now. Tyre choice appears to be critical on this. 7) Excessive road/tyre noise - I have been in quieter cars and am hoping that new tyres on the front (remember the ones on are 7 years old) will lessen the noise, but passengers report it is not obtrusive. 8) Poor fuel consumption - estimates range from low 30s to high 40s. You will never match new generation Mondeo/Insignia figures but remember - this is a big 'ol car! If you hammer down the motorways at 80+ you will pay for it next time you fill up, aerodynamic she aint! Cruise along at a more relaxed pace and you will see low 40s, and if you go into eco mode you could even crack the 50s. 9) Alarm sounds randomly on frosty nights - yep, got that one too. The cure seems to be to isolate the interior sensors by locking the doors using the lock tab inside the driver's door with the outside handle out, and then shutting the door. Car locked, alarm armed without interior sensors = silent night. I sleep round the back of the house so maybe it still goes off - I shall have to ask the neighbours )I am going for lie down now, so its up to the rest of the FR-V owners to carry on/comment/discuss.P.S. There was also a complaint from one guy who torn the front tyre off while cornering, and he was only doing the same speed he always did in his MX5 !!! - beware, they walk among us! - - - Updated - - - I put the above post in paragraphs but it came out in one long tirade! What am I doing wrong?

When I heard about the prayer shawl that comforted my aunt, I knew immediately that I wanted to take part in the prayer shawl ministry as soon as possible. As a spinner and knitter/crocheter, this was a way I could not only honor my Aunt Loraine, but could soothe many others who needed the warmth, love, and compassion all wrapped up in a handmade prayer shawl.
But there's more to this decision to get involved in such a ministry. If truth be told, I needed healing, too. These last few years have been hard ones on many fronts. Hurt, pain, and sadness have punctuated particularly the last year; not a life/death situation, but difficult nonetheless. For weeks now it's been hard to spin at a wheel for more than 5 minutes at a time. I'd begin spinning and find myself get up and wander away from the wheel, unable to maintain concentration or desire. It was even difficult to make me knit more than a few rows at a time. And forget dyeing. Never in 30 years of practicing the fiber arts had this happened. It was a personal crisis. I'm not surprised that Aunt Loraine was there with one of the answers...give. Look for an upcoming post on another of the answers...receive.
For those also wanting to get involved in the prayer shawl ministry, this site is a good place to start: Prayer Shawl Ministry.

Whenever medical professional mistakes result in a worsened medical condition for Bexar County patients, they may be able to sue for medical malpractice. But what exactly is medical malpractice? This blog post will review some of the basics of medical malpractice for readers who would like a little more information on the topic.
Doctors and other medical professionals owe a duty of care to their patients. However, in order for there to be a duty, there must first be a physician-patient relationship between the two parties. Usually, a person is not legally required to assist an injured individual unless there is some kind of special relationship between them. A physician-patient relationship is just such a special relationship, and once a physician agrees to help a person with a medical issue, the necessary relationship has been formed.
After a physician-patient relationship exists, the doctor has a duty to treat the patient with the care, skill and diligence expected of a reasonably competent physician in the same or similar circumstances. The circumstances include the facilities available to the doctor, the area of medicine in which the doctor practices and whether the doctor is operating in an emergency or otherwise difficult situation. Expert witnesses will provide evidence to the court on the issue of whether the doctor's performance fulfilled the duty of care. Usually the experts will be other doctors.
A physician may be liable for any negligence on the part of the doctor's staff or assistants in treating patients. If the doctor is a member of a partnership or limited liability company, that entity could also be liable, depending on the circumstances. There are a number of possible defendants or causes of action in a medical malpractice case; more information is available to people who would like to know more about their options.

Halfway There
30 Day Writing Challenge – Day 15
Halfway there! Woohoo! 15 days and except for maybe pushing the lateness of my posts a bit, I've kept on track. The whole reason for doing this challenge is to train myself to write. Write something, anything, every day so I learn to take the time from my oh-so-busy schedule and consciously think about what I want to say. It's an interesting thing really. Most of my entries here have been short and sweet. Some quite personal. Some where I'm explaining business things I'm doing and why. It's all good.
I spent the better part of today watching training videos. I'm keeping to my word of going full bore on the tee shirt ecommerce platform and today was a day of intentional learning. One cool thing with this platform is that the developers are making it so we can sell out own products as well as tees, etc.
Along the way, I've discovered that I really really dislike webinars which are over an hour long. How much time to do I want to spend listening to and watching a recording? Always so much banter and getting off track. I've got things to do! Anyway, just something I've noticed.
Since I'm sold on TeeProfitsPro, I also took the opportunity to send out an email to a few friends and post in a Facebook group of marketers about the new system. Had a good number of folks asking me for details of the system, so used my affiliate link to send them to the website. I sure hope some of them jump on it with me because it really is a wonderful product and opportunity.

In a packed Mall of Asia Arena here in Manila, it was difficult to tell who got a louder welcome on court as the Philippine Mavericks came out in full strength – home lad and player-coach Treat Huey or the genius of Serena Williams.
For their first match at home, the Mavericks closed the day's play with a staggering 29-18 over the Royals, making it two in a row, and the first home win for their very vocal supporters.
Team captain Philippoussis won the toss and elected to serve, winning the 1st set 6-2 against Goran Ivanisevic in 24 minutes.
The men's singles saw the towering Milos Raonic over-powered Tomas Berdych 6-4, giving the team a 2 set lead.
The mixed doubles with home star Treat Huey and Serena Williams pairing up against Nestor/Mladenovic was a delight. Plenty of cross-court backhands and straight-line passes from Huey/Williams in a set that tied 5-5, with a shoot-out that tied at 6-6. It was a sudden death that gave the Royals an edge, and win the set 6-5.
The women's singles had everyone in rapt attention, as Ivanovic and Williams looked set for the face-off! Williams clearly in the groove after her mixed doubles match earlier on, won the set 6-3.
The men's doubles some brilliant tennis from the French pairing of Roger-Vassellin/Gasquet. Their clever shot-making out-smarted Nestor/Berdych with a score that finished 6-3, wining it for the home team on day 1.
Williams – who delighted the Philippine crowd when she was with the Singapore Slammers in last year's IPTL – is now carrying the colors for the Philippine Mavericks for this season, expressed that she is exited to be a part of the tournament and the team this year.
"I really enjoy the format, and that's why I'm here again! The crowd in Manila was great last year, and more so this year, it was wonderful walking out for the home team. I really enjoyed playing the mixed doubles with Treat today, we had our chances, and it was a really close match."
Williams and the Mavericks will suit up once again on IPTL Manila Day 2 as they face the Japan Warriors. The Mavericks now hold a 2-1 record for the entire tournament.

Lunar science missions: the smallsat alternative
by Jeff Foust
|LRO may be so large that it will require a launch on a powerful, and expensive, EELV.
If these missions were small or mid-sized cars, then LRO, by comparison, is a full-sized SUV. LRO will be charged with carrying out a number of scientific and exploration objectives ranging from identifying the resources in the lunar polar regions to measuring the radiation environment around the Moon. To carry out those objectives LRO will be filled with a number of instruments, with up to 120 kilograms tentatively allocated for them.
That payload mass may prove to be a significant issue for LRO. In addition to the scientific payload, there is the rest of the spacecraft as well as a sizable amount of propellant—required for both entering lunar orbit as well as maintaining that orbit in the Moon's irregular gravity field—to contend with. NASA has stated that they plan to launch LRO on a Delta 2, the workhorse of planetary and space science missions. However, in a talk at the Goddard Memorial Symposium in March, GSFC planetary scientist David Smith noted that the Delta 2 can place only about 800 kg into lunar orbit. (That is actually less than what the Delta 2 can put into orbit around Mars, because Martian orbiters can use aerobraking to reduce the amount of propellant they need, an option obviously not available for lunar missions.) LRO's mass has become enough of an issue that there is serious consideration now given to switching from the Delta 2 to the more powerful—and more expensive—Atlas 5 or Delta 4. (See "Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter: the cornerstone of the vision", April 26, 2004)
LRO also represents a departure of sorts from how NASA handles many planetary science missions. The Discovery and Explorer programs, for example, rely on competitive selection processes to choose entire missions: proposers must provide information not just on the science they plan to achieve but how they plan to build and launch their spacecraft. For LRO, all NASA is asking for in an Announcement of Opportunity (AO) scheduled for release later this month are "investigations"—that is, instruments—for the mission. As the official notice of the impending AO put it, "The launch services and spacecraft will be NASA-provided resources." To be fair, this approach is hardly unprecedented: NASA has used it for much of its Mars exploration program, including the Mars Exploration Rovers. However, while the rovers were technologically challenging missions that arguably could be done best, and perhaps only, by NASA, lunar orbiters have been off the leading edge of space exploration for decades.
Is there a better way to accomplish the goals of LRO than with a single large orbiter? One option worth exploring is to replace the single large spacecraft with a number of smaller spacecraft, or smallsats. The instruments needed to meet the scientific requirements of the LRO mission would be split among several smallsats, each carrying perhaps only one or two instruments. Those smallsats, built by perhaps several different companies or organizations, could be launched over a period of time using a variety of different, lower-cost launch options.
At first glance that approach may seem to be rather inefficient. If the same instruments are going to the same destination, it would seem to make sense to combine them into a single spacecraft, sharing the same power, communications, and other resources, rather than building a separate spacecraft for each instrument. Yet there are a number of advantages to the smallsat approach that go beyond science and engineering.
Smallsats offer a wider range of launch alternatives. Rather than having to choose between a Delta 2 or an EELV, a smallsat could launch on smaller vehicles, such as a Taurus or SpaceX's low-cost Falcon 1 or 5. Alternatively, a lunar smallsat could be launched as a secondary payload on a commercial launch of a communications satellite bound for geosynchronous orbit. The smallsat would be deposited into a geosynchronous transfer orbit and use a kick stage, or electric propulsion, to make its way to the Moon. That's the approach used by SMART-1, Europe's first lunar mission, which was launched as a secondary payload on an Ariane 5 last September and is gradually making its way to the Moon with its ion engine.
|What could be more exciting to a prospective engineering student than the opportunity to work on a spacecraft that will fly to the Moon?
Smallsats also lend themselves to a staged approach to exploration. Rather than lumping a number of instruments on a spacecraft, then using those results to shape the development of a second- or third-generation mission, flying a steady stream of one or two (or more) smallsat missions a year allows the results of those missions to more rapidly be incorporated into the design of follow-on missions. This is, in effect, a form of "spiral development" that has become the buzzword du jour at NASA and the Defense Department. Flying large spacecraft packed with instruments makes sense with Mars missions, for example, where the launch windows are open for only a few weeks every 26 months, but makes far less sense for lunar missions, where the launch windows are effectively continuous.
Smallsats also allow a larger number of companies to participate. Outside of NASA, there are only a handful of companies that could realistically be able to build a spacecraft the size of LRO: Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and a few others. Smallsats, on the other hand, are within the capabilities of a larger number of companies, including those like AeroAstro and SpaceDev who specialize in smallsat development. This increased competitiveness can lead to better, less expensive designs, while the use of multiple smallsats allows several companies to participate, strengthening the industrial base in the field.
In fact, some of the best developers of smallsats in the US are not necessarily companies. A number of universities have participated in smallsat development for both educational and research purposes, giving graduate and even undergraduate students hands-on experience building flight hardware. This experience can prove useful for lunar missions, but it could have other benefits as well. During the public hearings of the President's Commission on Moon, Mars, and Beyond (also known as the Aldridge Commission), a number of witnesses have expressed the need to find new ways to encourage students to pursue careers in relevant science and engineering fields. By requiring, or at least strongly encouraging, lunar smallsat projects to involve universities in some manner in their development, NASA can harness both the experience of universities and promote the development of a new generation of spacecraft engineers. After all, what could be more exciting to a prospective engineering student than the opportunity to work on a spacecraft that will fly to the Moon?

It's getting increasingly hard to calibrate the Philadelphia 76ers' Moral Win-Loss record. The way the Sixers got up 25-8 in the game's opening minutes, only to slowly let the lead bleed away and ultimately fall behind by eight in the third quarter was so infuriating I wondered if I'd leave the game fuming even if we came back to win. But come back to win the Sixers did — largely thanks to the brilliance of Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons, who combined (almost evenly) for a staggering 40 points, 25 rebounds, 15 assists, 5 steals and 3 blocks — and the fourth-quarter was impressive enough you still had to leave the 119-109 victory with at least a half-smile.
But while our twin pillars were the primary reason the Sixers are currently sitting at .500 (with a record besides 0-0) for the first time since 2013, I wanna give credit to two of our much-maligned (by myself in particular) bench guys as well. As far south as things went in the middle of this one, they could've gone downright Key West if not for Amir Johnson and Jerryd Bayless.
After a slow-in-all-ways start to the season for Amir, he's really starting to show his value now as a rebounder, as a pick-and-roll partner, even as a low-post finisher. One game after posting his first double-double as a Sixer, he managed 12 and 8 in just 17 minutes last night, crucial in helping the Sixers get back to sea level when they were floundering in the third. And Bayless, coming off the bench for the first time all season with J.J. Redick's return to the starting five, was huge with his 14 points, three dimes and no turnovers. Not only did he hit one of the biggest shots of the game — a triple to put the Sixers up seven with five to go, which got them breathing room they never gave back — but he also made a couple crucial defensive plays, blocking a fourth-quarter drive by Isaiah Taylor and forcing (and winning) a late jump ball against Luke Babbitt.
I've been pretty hard on both of our pricey vets so far this season, because I've mostly found them exceedingly frustrating to watch — Bayless' decision-making has been largely woeful, and Johnson's low-post athleticism and finesse has left much to be desired. But Johnson appears to have steadied, averaging 10 and 8 on 67% shooting over his last three and looking at least mildly mobile on defense, and it's a lot easier to like Jerryd Bayless coming off the bench than it is to like him starting and playing 40 minutes (!!!) like he did in Houston on Wednesday. Maybe they're Sixers after all.
And boy, did we need 'em in this one, since everyone else was Breaking Benjamin-cold midway through the game. The previously scorching Robert Covington was temporarily sidelined with knee troubles, J.J. Redick couldn't get one to drop, Dario Saric's inability to convert from any range was reaching comedic proportions, and even Joel Embiid was looking too sluggish to be relied upon. Without Johnson and Bayless, this one maybe slips away altogether, leading to our worst loss of the early season — rather than just one we're annoyed to have to pay attention to for all four quarters.
So, 4-4 now, with a very reasonable chance to go over .500 at home on Friday against the Indiana Pacers. With Redick missing time, Markelle Fultz a sidelined mess and Dario going through Lonzo Ball-like shooting struggles, it's pretty remarkable that that things have evened out as quickly as they have. And with Embiid actually playing over 30 minutes against Atlanta last night — for the first time in the NBA — clearly anything is possible for Philly this season.

Don't let the word "reformed" scare you away. "Reformed" is simply shorthand for what we believe about God, Jesus, the Bible, people, and his world. Some of you may remember studying the Reformation of the 16th century back in one of your history classes. Do the names John Calvin or Martin Luther ring a bell? It was during this "reform" that the church went back to its roots, so to speak, to pick up the historical Christian faith that had gotten lost throughout the years. Since then, Christians have referred to this type of thinking as Reformed Theology.
So when we talk about being "reformed" we are stating that we believe and trust the story of God's grace that is found in every page of the Bible and is most clear in the person of Jesus Christ. It's a story about how God, for his own glory, went to the greatest length, the death of his beloved son, to redeem rebels like you and me. No one deserve his grace…no one is entitled to it… yet we all desperately need it and can freely have it if we place our faith in Christ. Here at RUF, we are committed to resting and growing in the grace of God found in Christ and seeking to respond to this grace by following Jesus in every area of our lives. Regardless of where you are at in life, you need God's grace just like we do, and we invite you to come explore his gracious story at RUF.

I was just searching around for something (team building dice games - still searching), when I came across a site that seems to have a variety of activities within it. I'll be going back to look around more, but I wanted to share it:
Businessballs.com (who comes up with these names?!!)
(Be sure to check the "Related Materials" links in the left hand column for additional journeys.)
While browsing around for inspiration I found this incredible list of acronyms (and Backronyms - more on this term below). I remember from one of my first trainings (way back in the day) our group participated in a "Master Mind Relay" (made popular by Project Adventure). A relay consists of all sorts of activity choices (e.g., puzzles, challenges, adventures) groups work together to solve in a certain amount of time. Solving acronyms was one of the challenges. (If you are a Karl Rohnke fan and have some of his older publications, you know he was - and still is - a fan of acronyms. Did you know, according to Karl, the term Challenge by Choice was inspired by the acronym CBC - complete blood count)
Something else I learned about at the acronym site (I love learning surprises) was the term "Backronym." I'm guessing it's been around for a while, I just haven't come across it - but I do know the idea. Basically, you create an acronym out of a word that is not an acronym. For instance, one I saw at the site: YAHOO - You Always Have Other Options (I'm sure Yahoo does not claim this slogan!)
Let me know if you find anything really good!! I'll do the same.
All the best,
Chris Cavert

Welcome to the Unsee.cc! It's always great to see you here. Unlike most Terms of services (that you have never read till the end) this one is not boring, I promise. Please read it to the end.
This is the temporary image sharing site. The one where you would upload your photos, get the link in return and share it with your friends/colleagues/relatives/clients and other folk to discuss, plan and share opinions on. To make this happen the site also provides a possibility for an instant messaging.
The main difference from most other image hosting sites is the increased level of security and privacy that you get, sharing an image with the site. You are promised that the images are very hard to download, unless you configure it otherwise.
With Unsee you get such things as a single view option, short life times, granular access control and much much more.
Please check our Privacy Policy for better understanding of the topic
Privacy is very important here. Images are not stored on the server after time that you specify.
At this point Unsee does not offer registration or other user account functionality and there are no immediate plans to implement it.
The site may have some sort of an advertisement applied to its pages. This may depend on the site that you came from (if any). This also may depend on the number of users currently viewing the same page - the higher the number, the higher the chance of the ad being displayed.
Drop an email to firstname.lastname@example.com to ask for help or to suggest implementing a new feature.
Every site has it's downtimes. This is one is not an exception. The site might have bugs and not be available at times. You are promised that such cases are as rare as possible and the site is kept operational to the best ability of the people maintaining it. The images might disappear earlier than promised.
While it's very hard for an average user and Unsee does a good job at achieving that, you shouldn't assume that it's impossible to steal a photo from Unsee. Unsee should never be blamed for any kind of problems that you would get yourself in after sharing a photo here.
This terms of service page will get updated to comply with the actual state of things. Check back occasionally

A documentary film produced by three media production students as part of their undergraduate studies has been selected by BBC Three Fresh, a BBC initiative to find new and emerging voices in documentary filmmaking.
Charley Fletcher, Kanny Tran and Laura Mobbs produced the film 'Dear Riley' during their second year documentary module with the film focussing on a teenage father's life and his day to day challenges. Speaking about the motivation behind making the film, Laura says,
We felt that the subject of being a teenage parent was very relevant to young audiences nowadays, as it's something that carries with it great emotion and struggle. We wanted to highlight this emotion and to show that even through trying situations, something good will arise, which we thought was an important message to deliver to the BBC Fresh audience… we felt that it was a story that needed to be told. We believed that telling such a story from the father's perspective was something that hadn't been explored enough in pre-existing media.
The group now plan to make more documentaries as they progress towards graduation and feel that their understanding of the form has fundamentally changed, as Charley puts it,
Documentary doesn't have to be boring, it's much more flexible than I first realised, being open minded and taking time to observe your surroundings is the key to making imaginative films.
Dear Riley is available to watch now on the BBC Three Fresh wesbite and will be screened nationally on BBC Three later this year.

I was tagged in this blog hop by my writing buddy Drew Gerken… Thanks dude!
I'm going to keep this short and sweet because I've got to get some fucking writing done tonight!
Q1: What are you working on?
Right now I'm working on Untitled (Fortune For Love #2) and have about 8k words down. It is a story that is in the same group of friends as my debut novel Sin For Love but instead of Reese & Tessa the main characters are Marcus & Alayna (Tessa's little sister). It will be a new spin on Beauty And The Beast but it doesn't follow the story exactly, just little nods to it here and there. Definitely not your mother's fairy tale. There will be sex, and lots of it.
I never planned it this way but S4L turned into a bit of a Cinderella story so I've decided to do that with all 4 in this series, make them roughly based on fairy tales.
Q2: How does your work differ from others in the genre?
wow that is a loaded question. I wrote Sin For Love for me. I wanted to write a book that had in it what I wanted to read. And I wanted something that didn't follow the formula for a Romance/Erotica book. I also feel that I have a good mix of hot sex, angst, and laughs. I write about strong female characters who don't apologize for who they are and are not broken. They submit but dominate at the same time. I guess you could say they top from the bottom.
Q3: Why do you write what you write?
I write what I write because it is what I want to write. It gets my heart beating fast and makes me feel what my characters are feeling… ahhh the feels! I write what I write because my characters are real people and their stories need to be told. I write what I write because it turns me on.
Q4: How does your writing process work?
There are plotters and there are pantsers… I am a Plantser. I have a basic plot that is outlined to help me get from point A to point B. However, like I mentioned earlier my characters are REAL and they have stories to tell so they usually run amuck and that is where the best parts come from. For example I never planned on having Reese practice his baseball swing on some fucking asshole's kneecaps but it happened and it was amazing.
The Hop
I'm supposed to pass the torch on to keep this fire burning…
Emily is my twinner in every sense other than when we were born. We both wrote our debut novels during NaNoWriMo of 2013 and released the same day. That is not where the similarities end and I feel that I've found a sister for life 🙂 Check out her novel Moving Forward.

It's astonishing how difficult it is to control our emotions. Emotions are inevitable, and even though some individuals consider themselves not to be emotional people, we all undoubtedly experience a range of different emotions on a daily basis which we seemingly cannot control. It's almost as if they are a shadow of power that generates a cloud of constant control over us.
Some people cry at the likes of Channel 4 documentaries, yet others only shed a tear at something personal or serious. But, what factor determines what emotionally affects the individual? It can't be put down solely to genetics or personality. Do we as an individual instill in ourselves what deserves a smile or a tear, or are we completely unable to control the emotions we experience?
I think I speak on a lot of people's behalf when I say that we've all woken up one morning and felt deflated or unenthusiastic for no apparent reason. On the flip side, we've all felt upbeat and overly happy with no real explanation for this. Emotions are unpredictable and although common sense explains that good life experiences make us happy and vice versa, some people are capable of remaining optimistic and joyful when life isn't being so kind.
Most of us have experienced the stinging sensation in our eyes and the trembling tone of our voice when we feel that sadness is overpowering our equilibrium. It's hard at that specific moment to remain composed and contain your emotions. Likewise, we smile subconsciously as it is a natural thing to do, our mind impulsively sends signals to the appropriate part of the body which triggers the smile.
Ultimately, there will never be a definitive way of being completely in control of our emotions. I guess people who suffer with depression receive help by taking tablets which attempt to ease sadness and anxiety and increase positivity and joy. However, it isn't natural chemicals in the body to cause this, it's medical supplements.
Despite the unpredictability and inconsistency of emotions, whether it be smiles, laughs, anger or tears - emotions are universally recognised despite race, culture, language or religion, which is something significant. We will all face our fair share of emotions but it's the people around us and the decisions we consciously make which can determine what we take from our emotions and how we choose to react to them. But remember, smiling is free, infectious and invaluable.

Barbara Koh's article of Sept. 30, 1990, regarding the "Ouster of the Temperance Crusader," was accurate, but it lacked a description of the tenor of the meeting.
As the article pointed out, Trisha Roth has been waging a battle against alcohol on the grounds of public schools, particularly the elementary school involved in this case.
There was an incident earlier this year in which wine was sold on the grounds of an elementary school, and she was at that time unable to prevent its sale.
What wasn't mentioned during the meeting is that she made several attempts through all the procedural channels available to her to prevent the sale of this alcohol, but was unsuccessful. She then did what she said she would do if the wine was not removed from sale.

If you are anything like me, this news will have you entirely geeking out in every way possible - Jean Grey, (yes you read that right) will be returning to Marvel comics after several years since her death.
In case you live under a rock, Jean Grey is one of the original X-Men with telepathic and telekinetic abilities that went on to pair with the cosmic entity known as the all-powerful Phoenix Force. Being an exemplary leader who also happened to be infused with some of the greatest power in the Marvel universe, Jean Grey established herself early on as a fan favorite and iconic character in just about every comic and or adapation of her role in animated, live action or even time displacement. Though nice to have around, nothing quite could live up to the original Jean Grey - and now after endless anticipation, Marvel has decided it's time to bring Jean home.
In a new trailer released to promote and discuss the epic return of Jean Grey, the comic's writer Matthew Rosenberg tells us, "Jean's return is tied to the Phoenix's return, and that is something that is both beautiful to the X-Men and the Marvel Universe and terrifying because with Jean comes the Phoenix," adding, "And so our series examines how she comes back, why she comes back, and what that means, in a bigger sense, for the X-Men and the world as a whole. Every issue has a different superstar artist taking over and showing us a piece of Jean's return."Assistant editor Christina Harrington explains, "So the five different artists for the series were all chosen to celebrate and to really dig into Jean Grey and her whole world, as you'll see when you pick up to book, and we wanted to have a sort of surreal horror element. We've got a bunch of different styles at play. Each person gets to sort of dive into a part of this weird, Lynchian world that Jean's in and it's a good to keep people sort of a little-unsettled moving between each issue."
With such in depth discussions of this return it can't be any redirect from Marvel so you're permitted to become even more excited - but as you may know, the world has massively changed since we last saw the hero. People who played a major role in the crimson-haired hero's life have since passed, including Wolverine, Profressor Xavier and even her former love Cyclops, so you can guarantee this will be a transitional period for the former deceased and those who both know her or know of her. One last slight hint towards how Jean will handle everything comes from editor Mark Paniccia who suggests, "One of the things that really excites me as an editor about the return of a character like this is where we're going to go with her next. Her mission now, as simple as it sounds, is to save the world. The way that she's going to do this is going to take a lot of readers by surprise."
With a power player like the one and only Jean Grey coming back to the X-Men/Marvel universe, there are endless reasons to celebrate - so in the meantime, enjoy the teaser trailer above and be sure to read the Phoenix Ressurection series in December.
One last thing... thank you to Marvel for fulfilling my childhood comic-dream of a Jean Grey comeback.
