DISCLAIMER: Nodame Cantabile is not mine. And never will be. *whimpers*
Chiaki Shinichi tossed and turned on his bed. It was already well past 3AM; and no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't drift off to slumber land.
This wasn't the first time that he found himself unable to do so, of course. But during those times, the causes were pretty much valid, just like when he was chosen to conduct an orchestra in a concerto wherein the queen and other notable guests were part of the audience. These days, though, he couldn't really think of something that was capable of keeping him up at that hour.
Herolled to his side for the nth time and was about to pull his blanket closer to him when he heard a noise. Startled, he instinctively sat up and listened; the sound of the air conditioner whizzing above was all he heard. He kept his ears open for a little longer, but heard nothing out of the ordinary.
"That's odd. I thought heard something," he mused.
He shrugged, and was about to lie back down when the noise he heard earlier came again. Louder, this time. He was certain. They were footsteps. And they seemed to be coming from the kitchen.
Chiaki hurriedly got to his feet and took a baseball bat which he hid under his bed. There had been a series of robberies in the neighborhood lately, and for him, one can never be too careful. He slowly opened the door and peeked through. There was no one in the hallway.
Not letting his guard down, he took small, light steps and made his way to the kitchen. The noise grew louder at every step he took. His heart raced as he got closer and closer to the source of the racket.
When he was just a step away from the entrance, he raised the bat he held, ready to knock the jerk that chose to rob him out of consciousness. He swallowed hard. This was it. 3, 2, 1…
Chiaki jumped and admonished the alleged robber. However, there was no response. The room was empty. Perplexed, he decided to check the place thoroughly. But it seemed that he really was alone in his apartment; that is, until he heard the footsteps again. It was now coming from the living room.
He hurriedly got to his feet and walked towards the source. You're not getting away this time.
His doubts were confirmed when he got there, as in the darkness, he could make out a figure leaning on the wall at the far end on the room. He instantly felt relieved that he wasn't just imagining things. Fumbling for the light switch, he braced himself for the encounter he was about to get into.
Light filled the room in an instant.
"I got you no-…Nodame?"
The person in front of him was definitely no robber. It was Nodame, his next door neighbor, who was clad in a purple nightgown. She was leaning against the wall rather suggestively, and had an oddly fierce look in her eyes.
"What on earth are you doing here? It's 3 in the morning, for heaven's sake!" Chiaki asked, annoyed.
Nodame didn't answer. Instead, she began to walk closer to him.
"Well?" he asked again.
"Isn't your wife allowed to visit you?" she finally answered. She was slowly making her way across the room, making Chiaki take a few steps back.
"How many times do I need to tell you? We are not a married couple!" he retorted, still backing away from the fast approaching woman. "And no, its perfectly fine to visit…but not at 3 AM!" he added.
Chiaki's back soon hit the wall. He was now on the hallway, and was a little more than freaked out about Nodame's actions. He looked at the person in question, who was barely a meter away. He couldn't put his finger on it, but there was something different about her. Maybe it was that burning look in her eyes. Or perhaps the way her nightgown highlighted her until then unnoticed contours.
His thoughts were quickly cut off, though, when Nodame grabbed him by the shoulders and pinned him to the wall. "No-nodame! What are you doi-"
Chiaki wasn't able to finish his sentence, as Nodame quickly pressed her lips against his. His eyes initially widened in shock, but they closed themselves as the kiss grew deeper. His arms found their way on her waist, and hers found a place on the back of his neck. The scene lasted for what seemed like an eternity, until the two decided it was time to pull back for some air.
All of a sudden, Chiaki felt happy. Inexplicably happy. The last time he felt like that was when he won his first competition. And that was ages ago. He looked down at Nodame, whose partly open lips seemed so inviting. He was about to lean in for another kiss, when the sound of a piano playing stopped him.
Th-that's sonata no. 2 by Robert Schumann...in G minor...
Chiaki opened his eyes and abruptly got up. He found himself back in his room, the sunlight penetrating though the window blinds. He looked at the alarm clock lying on his bedside table. It read 7:38.
He laughed to himself. It was a dream, just a product of his imagination. His amusement was short-lived, though, as he realized that Schumann's piece was still playing in the background. "Nodame?"
Panicked, the aspiring conductor sprinted towards his living room. And his suspicions were right on the mark. She seemed to notice his presence right away, as she stopped playing and spun her head around, lips still pouting. "Chiaki-senpai? You're awake already."
Chiaki found himself staring at her. Her pouting lips were awfully tempting. Darn, what are you thinking? Control yourself! , he mentally scolded himself.
"What are you doing here? It's still too early for breakfast."
"Nodame wanted to give you something. You said that you've been having trouble sleeping these days, so I decided to give you Mina-chan to help you do so," she said, gesturing to a stuffed bear she placed on the sofa.
Chiaki first walked over to the bear and read the note attached to it. Then he walked over to the piano. Nodame braced herself; but much to her surprise, Chiaki was actually smiling, albeit weakly. "That's very thoughtful of you." She felt like she was on top of the world. "But that doesn't mean that you can just barge in my apartment whenever you feel like it." Well, almost on top of the world. He hasn't thrown her out yet, so that's a good sign.
He was acting rather strange, though, so she decided to place a hand on his forehead to check his temperature- and got too close for comfort. "Gyabooooooo!" was all she could utter after being shoved towards the door.
Back inside, Chiaki found himself rereading the contents of the post-it that Nodame had attached to the bear.
I'd like you to meet Mina-chan! Whenever I can't sleep, all I needed to do was hold onto to him- and I'd find myself in dream land in no time at all! I'm sure you two would get along just great.
See you at dinner!
With love from your wife,
He smiled once more as he folded it and placed it in a drawer, along with the others that he had been safekeeping.
I recently got obsessed with Nodame Cantabile, and without warning, a plotbunny just came into my head and begged me to write it. And here, my friends, is that pesky bunny. I haven't watched the Paris-hen eps yet, so the details and my characterization here may be inaccurate.
So, what do you think? Please let me know, through that little box down there with the green font. Right, there you go. Now click!

Leader's Guide ~ Parenting From the Tree of Life
One of the necessary steps leading to successful mentoring is helping parents transition from book knowledge to home and heart application. A good class leader does more than manage a small group on a given night, or point people to good resources—he or she influences lives. We trust the Parenting From the Tree of Life Leader's Guide is one of the resources that will move class leaders to a deeper level of influence. While Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo authored the Life Series, Rich and Julie Young are the primary architects of the Leader's Guide. With input and feedback from class members and other long term GFI Leaders, (specifically Don and Karen Kurtz) this manual has become a "must-have" resource for anyone leading a Parenting From The Tree of Life class.
In terms of content, the Leader's Guide parallels the comprehensive Life Series workbook released in 2015. The "Leader's Section" located at the end of each chapter is highlighted with a gray header, such as above. It is there class facilitators will find the following lesson resources:
Class "Take-Aways"
Under this heading, we recommend class facilitators write down their class member's "take-aways" shared during the wrap-up time. We will explain the reason for keeping track of these points in a moment, but first let's talk through the value of this particular educational tool.
One of the most important educational moments of any class is the conversation generated as a result of the DVD presentation. These "take-away" discussions reveal what is important to the class members or what caught their attention, either in the form of encouragement or correction. Although we provided a list of "Additional Questions for Discussion", please understand these questions serve as a back up to the "take-away" sharing time and should not be viewed as "must ask" questions. The conversations that naturally flow out of the take-aways can easily fill up the entire discussion time. That is because what class members are sharing often reflects their most pressing parenting concerns.
We also recommend that before the DVD presentation begins, encourage your class members to be listening and writing down their key take-away points, because they will be called upon afterwards to share what was meaningful to them. This type of forewarning tends to heighten the participant's attentiveness during the presentation. Then when the share time begins, do not ask, "Who would like to share their take-aways from today's lesson?" Rather, approach this time more directly. "Let's work through our take-aways from this lesson starting with [name] and go around the room." Once the class members realize sharing during take-away time is not optional, they tend to be more attentive to the entire DVD presentation.
Now, returning to the recommendation for writing down your class member's "take-away" points. You should summarize them in your weekly follow-up email. "Follow-up email!" you might be thinking. Yes, a follow-up email, because follow up is a big part of successful mentoring. We understand how busy life can be, and writing and sending weekly emails can seem burdensome for class leaders who are already sacrificing their personal time for ministry. That is why, for the leader's convenience, we are providing email templates for each visit. The templates contain a variety of lesson-specific information and suggestions for at home activities. They are in a format that will allow leaders to edit and add content or personalize the information to meet specific class needs.
Additional Questions for Discussion
Next in the Leader's Section comes the "Additional Questions for Discussion" section (answers included). As previously noted, the questions are provided only if they are needed to further stimulate class conversation, or if they reference a topic or principle you believe needs more attention or further clarification. Once again, let the class "take-away" discussion take priority when working through the lesson's content, and use the optional questions as a backup if needed.
This Week at Home
Here, leader's will find recommendations for practical at-home applications and reading assignments. Specific at-home recommendations are also included in the email templates.
Tools and Other Resources:
In addition to this leader's manual, we have also designed a special class facilitator's website for the Life Series that works in conjunction with the Leader's Guide. There, leaders will find additional supportive resources including:
"Leader's Place" DVD Presentation
While each mentoring couple will tailor their particular strengths to the unique needs of their class, there are some fundamental leadership principles for a successful class experience common to all small groups. We are confident that after watching this 22-minute presentation, every leader will be sufficiently equipped to begin his or her small group mentoring journey.
Variety of Class Management Forms
These forms include class registration, attendance sheets, refreshment sign-up and various lesson-related handouts.
Downloadable Email Templates
Sending out a weekly follow-up email has proven to be an effective tool. The email serves as a weekly encouragement and can be adapted to unique class needs or special events. Each email includes:
- A short lesson review and key verses.
- Summary of the key points from each lesson.
- A guide to homework and reading assignments.
- Practical suggestions for teaching children the principles derived from each lesson.
- Embedded video links that will take parents to a video review page containing the various scenarios Dad and Mom viewed during their lesson. This is a fun way for parents to teach their children the key principles contained in each visit, and children love seeing what Mom and Dad are learning.
Finally, we wish to encourage you in your role as mentors and leaders. We know the task is not always easy. However, we are confident that when the resources outlined above are utilized routinely, class leaders can achieve the primary objective of making the Life Series a "life-style" for each participating parent. Thanks for joining us.

Red Dwarf (1988)
24 mistakes in Demons & Angels
Starring: Chloë Annett, Chris Barrie, Craig Charles, Danny John-Jules, Hattie Hayridge, Norman Lovett, Robert Llewellyn
Buy Great Movie Mistakes - only on Kindle!
Audio problem: When the high Lister plays the harp, his fingers are out of sync to what is being played.
Continuity mistake: When Lister swings the axe at The Cat and hits the door frame, the axe head bends. When Lister pulls the axe out, its head is fine again.
Visible crew/equipment: After Lister is attacked by low Kryten, he sneaks through the cargo bay. There is a shot where the camera is following Lister as he sneaks around a corner, if you look at the floor you can see the shadow of the cameraman.
Continuity mistake: Just before Kryten chloroforms Lister, Lister's locks jump from behind his back to over his left shoulder between shots.
Continuity mistake: During the Higher Cat and Rimmer's dance when Kryten says 'and agony in torment' his arms are by his sides. In the next shot, his right arm is raised.
Revealing mistake: The low Cat's teeth move and wobble in ways they should not be able to when he is first seen.
Visible crew/equipment: Just before Red Dwarf explodes, there is a shot of Lister. In the background you can see a moving shadow of a crew member on the floor.
Audio problem: When the high Kryten picks up the bomb, the high Cat can be seen to start speaking but no sound is heard. In the next shot, the high Cat is then smiling.
Revealing mistake: The pyrotechnic charges are visible under the 'High' Cat and Kryten's robes, before they are shot. There is also a wire trailing behind Kryten and running up his left leg, presumably a means of detonating the charges.
Character mistake: After the crew realise that the matter paddle has made 2 copies of Red Dwarf, Kryten says something along the lines of, "When I threw the machine in reverse...", but it wasn't actually him who threw the machine in reverse, it was Lister.
Revealing mistake: When Lister slams his nose into the door of the cabinet, you can see it is nowhere near it.
Continuity mistake: After the Cat incapacitates Lister, the Cat complains about his collar being untidy, then steps aside. The next shot shows Lister stood on his own and the Cat is not visible at all. There was no time for the Cat to walk that fast between shots.
Continuity mistake: When Lister is choking the Cat, he says 'give me a break, Rimmer'; at this point Rimmer is looking at the Cat and Lister, yet in the next shot he is looking at Kryten.
Continuity mistake: The bottle of chloroform Kryten uses to take Lister by surprise appears from nowhere.
Revealing mistake: After Starbug lands on the 'high' Red Dwarf, Rimmer is running out of power and starts to fade in and out. However, Cat, who must be standing too close to Rimmer also fades, the backdrop being partially visible through him.
Visible crew/equipment: When the High Rimmer and Cat dance, in the wide shot a boom mic can be seen at the top of the screen.
Continuity mistake: When Lister, the Cat and their higher selves are walking down the corridor, the way Lister is facing changes between shots throughout the scene.
Continuity mistake: When remote controlled Lister is strangling the Cat, his locks are partially over his left shoulder and partially behind his back. When Lister picks up the bazookoid, his locks are all over his left shoulder.
Continuity mistake: When Lister is sent flying when the crates explode, his hat falls off, but when he sits up he is still wearing it. It then falls off again when the low Lister spits at him, yet he is still wearing it when he rolls away.

We had an exciting end to the RBC Heritage last week as Jim Furyk defeated Kevin Kisner on the second playoff hole. Furky's victory was his first in 100 starts. This week, the PGA takes us to TPC Louisiana and the Zurich Classic. This event has been held at TPC Louisiana every year since 2007. Seven of the last 10 winners were first timers, including last year when Seung-Yul Noh defeated Keegan Bradley by two strokes. Jason Day, Dustin Johnson, and Justin Rose headline the field that includes five of the top-20 golfers in the world.
My picks for this week:
Tier A:
1) Justin Rose (0) – Rose is my number one pick for this week. After struggling to start the season, Rose found his game at Augusta and finished in tie for 2nd with Phil Mickelson. In his last three starts at TPC Louisiana, Rosie tied for 10th in 2012, tied for 15th in 2013, and shared 8th last year.
2) Rickie Fowler (0) – Like Jim Furyk prior to last week, Fowler has played some exceptional golf without a win. Call it a hunch, but I could see Rickie taking home the trophy this week. Although he missed the cut last year, Fowler has one top-10 in four career appearances at TPC Louisiana.
Tier B:
1) Charles Howell III (2) – Tier B always leaves a lot to be desired so I am going with consistency this week. Howell III has made the cut in five of his last six trips to TPC Louisiana, including a share of 2nd in 2009. Howell has been up and down over his last three starts. He has missed two cuts, but did tie for 5th at the Shell Houston Open.
2) Nick Watney (0) – Watney has three top-20's in his last seven trips to TPC Louisiana. Watney won in 2007, tied for 20th in 2011, and shared 15th in 2013. Watney tied for 25th in his last start at the Shell Houston Open.
Tier C:
1) Branden Grace (1) – Grace has three worldwide top-10's in 2015, including wins at the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters and the Dimension Data Pro-Am. Last week at the RBC Heritage, Grace shared 7th with fellow South African, Louis Oosthuizen. This will be Grace's first trip to TPC Louisiana.
2) Cameron Smith (0) – Smith has been a guy I have been following since he had seven straight top-10's in late 2014. Well Smith is at it again as he has had three straight worldwide top-15's. Smith tied for 2nd at the Coca-Cola QLD PGA Championship, tied for 4th at the BMW New Zealand Open Championship, and shared 15th last week at the RBC Heritage.
Other Golfers Considered:
Dustin Johnson (Tier A): Johnson has not had any success at TPC Louisiana, but he is playing too well to ignore this week. Johnson has a win and two 6th place finishes in his last three starts.
Jamie Donaldson (Tier B): Donaldson has never played TPC Louisiana, but he is the highest ranked golfer in Tier B. Donaldson tied for 33rd in his most recent start at The Masters.
Justin Thomas (Tier C): Thomas has top-15 finishes in two of his past five starts. Last week at the RBC Heritage, Thomas finished in a tie for 11th. As I mentioned above, this has been a tournament for first time winners and I could Thomas has the game to continue that trend.

Much book buying in the weeks before the storm. Now putting on the shelves more from the (mainly) hard cover mystery collection, some poetry, a few titles on forensic science, literary biographies, medieval studies and more. Our Alaska section downstairs is groaning at the seams. Four beautiful and large garden and landscaping books just in. And I will be restocking some Amherst, Holyoke, Nantucket and Vineyard post cards later today.
Off to the book store via a walk first with Fred! He's had a severe haircut. Will try to get some photos of him on this site.

BAGHDAD, Oct 13 (Reuters) - Total is interested in developing the Majnoon oil field in southern Iraq which Shell is planning to exit, the Iraqi oil ministry said on Friday.
A senior Total executive communicated the French company's interest in a meeting with Oil Minister Jabar al-Luaibi in Baghdad, the ministry said in a statement.
Total also expressed an interest in investing in the Nassiriya oil and gas project which provides for upstream and downstream development in the southern Iraqi region.
The project aims to increase output from the oilfields of Nassiriya, processing the fuel in refineries, and recovering the associated gas to supply power stations or for export.
Royal Dutch Shell said last month it had agreed with Iraq's oil ministry to relinquish operations at the Majnoon field to the government after unfavourable changes to fiscal terms. (Reporting by Maher Chmaytelli; Editing by Mark Potter)

We now know that Ogawa will be making the first defense of his title on April 2nd at the Korakuen Hall as he faces Satoru Sugita (11-2-1, 7) [杉田 聖] in a mandatory defense of his title.
Ogawa, for those who haven't seen him, is an exciting, aggressive and heavy handed fighter who really came to prominence last June when he beat Raymond Sermona, before adding Deivi Julio Bassa to his resume in September. Those two results were solid but paled in significance to his December win over Rikki Naito to claim the Japanese title and end the unbeaten run of Naito, who was dropped, out muscled and beaten down before the bout was stopped due to an accident cut.
At 27, soon to be 28, Ogawa is a fighter in his prime and is currently riding a 9 fight winning streak. That current streak includes 8 KO's with only the technical decision against Naito not ending by stoppage as Ogawa has become a seriously dangerous fighter and a man who has avenged his only defeat. Although a puncher Ogawa is a solid boxer who has a hard, hurtful jab, imposing physical streak and very under-rated skills, making him a real handful. And more worryingly, he's just getting better and better.
Whilst we have seen a fair bit of Ogawa the same cannot be said of his challenger, who is set to take a major step up in class. Aged 26 Sugita is starting to hit his prime and is a long way from the 1-2-1 run that marked up his record, dropping him to 6-2-1 (4) , back in 2013. Since that poor run he has gone 5-0 (3) and scored wins over the likes of Ryota Kajiki and Yoshiyuki Takabayashi. Despite being in a great division domestically it does need to be said that Sugita hasn't faced any of the truly notable guys and that's a genuine shame.
Although without a notable win so far it is fair to say that Sugita has a huge opportunity here and could well be the next fighter to announce himself as a serious player on the Japanese domestic scene at 130lbs, alongside the likes of Masao Nakamura and Daiki Kaneko.
Sadly we've struggled to find video's of Sugita, so we've only managed to include a video of Ogawa below.

McDermott, fast bowling coach at Cricket Australia's centre of excellence, is on a shortlist of five names which includes only two candidates from county cricket. Dougie Brown, the Warwickshire assistant coach, and Stuart Barnes, the bowling coach at Gloucestershire, are the county representatives on Andy Flower's interview list.
Allan Donald and David Saker, the current Victoria bowling coach, make up the final shortlist with a decision on a replacement for Ottis Gibson expected in the next week or so.
McDermott, 44, played 71 Tests and took 291 wickets while leading the Australian attack during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
He works at the Australian academy alongside Troy Cooley, England's bowling coach during the 2005 Ashes success, and would bring to the England set-up valuable knowledge of how to exploit the use of the Kookaburra ball, which England will encounter during this year's tour to Australia.
McDermott will also possess an insider's knowledge of the Australian attack England are likely to encounter this winter.
But a desire within the England & Wales Cricket Board to promote English coaching talent could stand in the way of the overseas candidates.
Barnes does have a level 4 coaching qualification and worked closely with the England performance programme squads during the winter.
But he missed out on the job as Warwickshire's bowling coach last year and it may be felt that dealing with the international set-up could be a step too far at this stage of his career.
He also played only 11 first-class matches for Gloucestershire and Flower, who is part of an interview panel which also includes Hugh Morris, the England managing director, and ECB bowling coach Kevin Shine, may want someone with more playing experience.
Brown, a stalwart of county cricket who played 23 one-day internationals for England and Scotland, is Ashley Giles' No 2 at Warwickshire and has some international coaching experience having taken charge of Namibia at the 2003 World Cup.
Saker was a swing bowler for Victoria and Tasmania until he moved into coaching six years ago. Victoria won the Sheffield Shield last week and during Saker's time as their bowling coach Peter Siddle has graduated from state to international cricket.
Donald was the early front runner for the job and has worked with the England set up before when he replaced Cooley on a short term basis for a Test series against India in 2007.
He lacks formal coaching qualifications but would be seen as a mentor to the England bowlers in terms of dealing with the mental side of the game. But Donald has struggled to settle into a career since retiring and, like Barnes, failed to land the job of bowling coach at his old county, Warwickshire.
England toured Bangladesh without a bowling coach following Gibson's decision to take up a job with the West Indies and Flower is thought to want a replacement in time for next month's World Twenty20.

I've been wanting to snag some photos of my friend's nursery for a while now, and this weekend we finally got together for brunch and a little photo shoot of her adorable daughter Isla and her amazing nursery.
There's no lack of color here, and I love it. The walls are Farrow and Ball Pink Sand, which is the color I used in my bathroom. It's a soft blush pink, and it's the perfect base for the brighter pinks, oranges, and purples used throughout the room. The painting above Isla's crib was painted at her baby shower. Every guest painted a flower, and now she and her parents have it as a lovely reminder of the friends and family who got together to celebrate her.
Obviously this room wouldn't be complete without a bit of gold.
It's hard to pick a favorite piece here, but I have a serious love for the bullfighter print. The colors are perfect and I can't lie - I want his outfit.
This girl. So friggin' cute. And how great is this rug?
Isla's outfit coordinates with her nursery, natch.
The art in this nursery is generally pretty great. It's colorful and joyful and great for a baby without being baby-specific.
So what do you think? A room doesn't get much happier than this, does it?
Shoes. Good for wearing, great for eating.

Okay, seriously the cutest! I LOVE the name Isla and this little girl is so cute! I am also really into all the art happening in this nursery- the flower-painting idea is so good!
6/13/2016 01:42:52 pm
Where is nursery rug from?

What beautiful photos of Isla and her room. Loved your blog. Hope you are well.
6/16/2016 10:07:55 pm
Oh this is precious (but not too precious, ya know?)! I love the art! Also, how about back in the day when you could chew on your shoe without a care in the world and your hair was always perfect. Those were the times!

September 1, 2016
Shortly after e-wallet solutions reached mainstream adoption in the early 2000s and smartphones became increasingly ubiquitous, interest in mobile payments soared to new heights. But as new players flooded the alternative payments industry, the influx of payment options became too much to bear for consumers and merchants alike. Unable to differentiate one payment solution from another, consumers and merchants simply refrained from adopting alternative payments of any kind.
In recent years, however, concerns commonly associated with alternative payments have started to dissipate. 2015 marked the first time digital wallets were used more widely than traditional card payments. According to the 2015 Global Payments Report from e-commerce acquirer and processor Worldpay, the U.S. is expected to experience the largest shift toward alternative payments of any country. In fact, U.S. e-commerce turnover will grow from $312 billion to $536 billion by 2019—a 14 percent increase. Merchant-owned apps, tech players, bank-owned apps and general mobile wallets are leading the payments app race.
Needless to say, consumer knowledge of and confidence in alternative payments has never been higher. Still though, there is room for growth. In an effort to bolster the momentum behind alternative payments, key players in the ecosystem have set their sights on exploring the payments frontier. From biometrics and virtual reality to mobile devices and wearable technology, advancements across these mediums are impacting the consumer experience.
Biometric Technology
While biometric technologies have garnered a great deal of attention, perceived high costs and the hassle of registering details in public have all but eliminated their role in face-to-face environments. That, however, may soon change thanks to innovations like the PIN Entry Device Camera (PED Cam).
Embedded in a payment terminal, PED Cams snap a picture of card users as they enter their PIN number. The image is then used to generate a unique, biometric template that is connected to the individual's card and the image is securely stored in a central database. Since the payment terminal is linked to the central database, new pictures taken during the most recent transaction can be cross-referenced with the biometric template. The end result is a multi-layered profile that can be used to prevent credit card fraud.
In addition to physical payment terminals, biometric technology has also made its way to the e-commerce industry. Once thought to be nothing more than an idea, genetic signatures via fingerprint scans and facial recognition technology may soon be used to authenticate online purchases.
The MasterCard Identity Check app, for example, enables users to either scan fingerprints or take selfies to confirm their identity. Once the user's identity is validated, he or she can return to the merchant's Website to move forward in the virtual checkout process.
Virtual Reality
Take a minute to imagine shopping at a store from the comfort of your own home. Developers are using virtual reality to invent new ways for customers to interact with content—including movies and music—in 360 degrees before making a purchasing decision and paying online.
One team of developers challenged by payments processor Vantiv to transform the consumer shopping experience through VR, created a virtual mall where shoppers can enter and exit stores, pick up products and make purchases with a simple head nod. In the same way that mobile wallets and mobile devices jumpstarted e-commerce spending, virtual reality may be the next piece of technology to shake up consumer shopping habits.
Mobile and Wearable Devices
From the Apple Watch to the Kerv Payment Ring, intuitive motions and biometrics enable consumers to authorize transactions in a matter of seconds. Similar capabilities are now making their way to smartphones. Scientists at Newcastle University have developed a system that requires users to draw an image as their password instead of entering a series of numbers, letters and symbols.
Named Background Draw-A-Secret (BDAS), the system first records how you draw the doodle you've selected as your password, paying special attention to the number of strokes, where you started the image and the order in which you made each stroke. Each time you draw the image to access a service or authorize a purchase, the system will monitor those three factors to ensure it mirrors the first drawing. For consumers who struggle to remember login details and passwords for dozens of different merchants or services, this solution can lead to a stronger payments experience.
Aside from motions or drawings, yet another way consumers can use mobile and wearable devices to complete transactions is by leveraging the power of near field communication (NFC) technology. Today, most point-of-sale terminals are equipped with NFC technology. Rather than digging through a wallet or purse for a credit card, consumers can hold their mobile device near an NFC reader for a moment to authorize a transaction. And since a physical card is never on display, risk of fraud is reduced.
Steady improvement in alternative payments technology has changed the way consumers shop in-store and online. From authenticating transactions with your fingerprint to completing purchases with a simple tap of your mobile device, the emergence of new payment methods makes one thing abundantly clear—the payments frontier is expanding. While continued technological advancements across all mediums are sure to enhance shopping experiences, payment methods involving biometric technology, virtual reality and mobile devices are especially important to keep track of moving forward.

Cam Newton is finally participating fully in practice and he is not limited anymore. He can't wait to play against the 49ers since he has not had that much time during the preseason. Kelvin Benjamin recently lost his mother and he is saying that every play will be dedicated to her. Cam Newton told the media that he believes that Kelvin Benjamin will have his best year in the NFL this season! With a fully motivated Kelvin Benjamin and ecstatic Cam Newton no one will want to miss the spectacular show troubling the defenses. Last year Kelvin Benjamin had 941 yards in receiving, 7 touchdowns, and 63 receptions. Benjamin can definitely have a much better season under his belt this year!
We saw a bit of this momentum in the third preseason game where Cam Newton threw a bullet pass to McCaffrey for some yards. If Cam can continue to throw quick darts and McCaffrey will zoom out of the defenders eyes than Carolina will have a dynamic offense! McCaffrey will be a kick returner for the game this Sunday and we will see how far he will carry the ball down the field. It would be a great sight to see McCaffrey go all the way on a kick return. He has the ability to shock every defender especially with his receiving talent. Cam Newton should always look for Christian to throw to! Every team would like a McCaffrey and Newton but it is not always easy to have such great stars on one NFC South team! Christian McCaffrey had a great preseason and he will surely have an even better season!
We all know that Greg Olsen is Mr. Reliable for the Panthers! Anytime Cam Newton needs someone to pass to on 3rd and 5 Greg always makes the grab. Olsen is looking for his 4th straight year of 1,000 yards in receiving. Cam Newton knows that he can always throw to the tight end if his receivers are covered and Olsen will make the catch and push for even more yards. Last season Greg Olsen had 1,073 receiving yards, 3 touchdowns, and 80 receptions. A highlight of Greg Olsen's career was when he caught the game winning touchdown for the Panthers in Seattle on October 18, 2015 and the Panthers won 27-23! He can lead Carolina anywhere as long as Newton makes the right throws!
No one can forget about Devin Funchess he is another tall machine like Kelvin Benjamin! Newton can always rely on Funchess to climb great heights to get the ball in the air. In 2016 Funchess had 371 receiving yards, and 23 receptions. It might have been a quiet year for him but this year he will come back and dominate the passes from Cam. Devin is a great football player and he definitely needs the ball passed to him more often because he can make plays!
With all the weapons Cam Newton has this team can be great and win the Super Bowl! Another threat to all the Panthers opponents is Newton's run game. Not only does he have great players to throw to but he also can zip outside of the pocket for huge gains. Newton did not rush outside of the pocket enough last season and he said that no one can stop him from running! That is the special quarterback that Cam Newton is! On Sunday Newton will be with the best Panthers offense since a long time and he will want to redeem himself with a nice win! Cam Newton is number 1 and let's be 1-0 with a win in San Francisco! Kickoff is at 4:25 eastern time and many will be watching to see Cam make the Panthers a great team. Let's Keep Pounding and see how much Newton will shine in his long waited return!

Getting a full shoulder turn is one of the essential ingredients to hitting the golf ball a long way. The design of the human spine ideally allows golfers to rotate the most from the middle (thoracic) spine. However, if the middle spine is overly bent forward or to the side at address, then it can't rotate properly during either the backswing or follow-through (see pictures #1: rounded posture at address, #2: side bent posture at address, and #3: proper posture at address). Golfers, therefore, with poor address posture will have restricted shoulder turns and difficulty achieving maximum distance in their shots.
The reason that so many golfers have difficulty achieving a proper spine posture at address and full rotational flexibility in their shoulder turn is because of tightness in their chest and spine. Inflexibility in the muscles of the chest and around the spine causes the middle spine to bend forward and/or to the side beyond it's potential to fully rotate. To help achieve proper posture at address and then to achieve a full shoulder turn for maximum length, here are three stretching exercises that promote a straighter posture at address and improved rotational flexibility in your spine.
Chest and Shoulder Stretch
Begin this stretch by lying on the floor with your feet resting over a chair so your hips and knees are comfortably bent to 90 degrees. Place a small towel roll (1-2 inches in diameter) horizontally across your middle back about shoulder blade level. Place your arms out to your side about 60-80 degrees and bend your elbows to 90 degrees (see picture #4). From this position, allow your chest, shoulders and middle spine to relax until you feel like all the tightness has released (3-5 minutes).
Side Stretch
Begin this stretch by lying on your left side over a rolled up pillow. Reach your right arm overhead and straighten your right leg while supporting your head with your left arm and bending your left hip and knee (see picture #5). Hold this stretch for 3-5 minutes or until you experience a complete release of any tightness in your right side. Then, slowly come out of this stretch and repeat on the other side.
Spine Rotation Stretch
Start this stretch on your back with your hips and knees bent and your feet rested on the floor. Reach your arms out to the sides (60-80 degrees) and bend your elbows to 90 degrees. Keeping your knees together, allow both legs to slowly rotate to your left until you feel a comfortable stretch in your right hip and spine (see picture #6). Hold this position until you feel a complete release of the stretch feeling (3-5 minutes) and then repeat the stretch in the other direction.
Remember to check with your physician before performing these exercises and stop immediately to contact your physician should you feel any discomfort during or after performing any exercises.

Games are typically java games
Many thanks for any help

iOS 11 has been released, and if you have an iPhone or iPad, you should really update right now. It's a big release, and especially iPad users will get to enjoy an overhauled user experience on their tablets. If you're not convinced, be sure to read the only two reviews you need: the one by fervent and enthusiastic (his enthusiasm for the iPad is infectious, in a good way) iPad user Federico Viticci, and the Ars Technica review written by Andrew Cunningham.
I've been using the betas on my 2017 iPad Pro 12.9", and it truly transforms how you use the iPad, to the point where I can use mine comfortably for work (translating, posting OSNews stories - like this one - and so on). No macOS or Windows laptop is as responsive and fluid as this iPad Pro, and the battery life of this machine is so good, it's probably illegal in 12 US states. Unlike macOS or Windows, I don't have to spend time fighting with iOS 11 to get it to do what I want, like fidgeting with windows, or anxiously managing battery life because otherwise I won't get through a day, or manage applications. And trust me, there's no PC - not even my own €4000 monster PC - that is as fluid and responsive as this iPad Pro.
The iPad Pro with iOS 11 is the truest realisation yet of it just works.
I'm not going to claim this is for everyone, or that you should ritually sacrifice your ThinkPad and run to the Apple Store and get the iPad Pro. However, after a few months of use, there's no way I'm ever going back to a traditional laptop. That being said - my only complaint about the 2017 iPad Pro 12.9" is an odd one: it's not a mobile device.
I am a sit down behind my desk kind of person. I work and compute behind a desk, with a large display at eye height and a comfortable chair. The iPad Pro isn't suited for this kind of work, as it forces you to look down, which due to back problems I cannot do for longer periods of time. What I really want is a small iOS box I can hook up a display, keyboard, and mouse to. Apple already makes such a box - the Apple TV - so I know they can do it. Mouse and keyboard support is probably coming to iOS over the coming years, and with the Mac Mini languishing, it feels like they might be working on just such a box.
I'd easily pay €500-700 for such a machine.
I know stating iOS is a great general purpose computing platform tends to be controversial - I myself have been skeptical about this very thing for years - but iOS 11 and the iPad Pro have utterly convinced me. This is the platform I want for laptop and desktop computer use. Windows and macOS feel like the past now.
To read all comments associated with this story, please click here.
My primary point here was that you can't just search the App Store and paste the first link you find as proof that a platform is suitable/mature for a specific kind of work.
The iPad Pro may have reached a maturity level that convinces you that it is now suitable for your line of business, but you can't extrapolate that to mean this applies to general computing. A lot of the "it just works" is possible because Apple locked down the platform and what apps can do. But those very same limitations is what makes an iPad unsuitable for a lot of other professions.
In any case, unless I'm missing something, the iOS 11 is still limited to a two-app split screen UI. That may work for what you do, but until it has freely resizable windows, has a physical mouse, keyboard, and is attached to a 24" screen it won't be usable as a replacement for what I use today.

MILPITAS, CA --The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority is making some changes to its bus service in Milpitas starting Jan. 11.
VTA service planners are restructuring Route 47 as an east-west line that crosses over Interstate Highways 880 and 680 while serving long stretches of Calaveras Boulevard.
The two end points for the rerouted line are the Great Mall Transit Center and McCarthy Ranch. Route 33, which served both destinations, will be discontinued.
Also, Route 47 will no longer serve Milpitas High School, according to the VTA.

The Search for Singapore's Semangat
It's been a week since the government officially opened its doors for public feedback on population issues via population.sg, and I can't even begin to describe how encouraging it has been to see how so many Singaporeans put in considerable effort and contributed many creative ideas and suggestions.
Many things could be made better: public transport, the availability of housing, flexibility in the workplace for better work-life balance, education…the list goes on. But I cannot help but sense a deeper need that we find hard to define, because we seem to have lost the vocabulary for these things when we pursued math and science at the cost of the arts and humanities so many years ago.
Truth be told, most Singaporeans would agree that we're doing better than most other countries in the world. We enjoy a relatively reliable infrastructure, and I'm personally comforted by the recent push towards more green spaces.
I guess the question, when asked bluntly: why aren't we happy?
If Maslow's pyramid applies, it would appear we've maxed out on the eating, drinking, shelter layers, and are looking to fulfill the higher-order needs. There's been a lot of talk about the Singapore identity, finding what it is, or preserving what we had. We've made huge sculptured chunks of the pledge and placed them in various parts of town, where people can hit a huge "Like" button to show their appreciation for the phrase. I often ride my skate-scooter to work, passing by a few of these and hitting the button whenever I can.
But it feels empty.
I'm looking for something greater, something more important than economics. I'm looking for something I can believe in - a Singapore I can believe in. It is more than her resilience to overcome financial recessions, or her shiny new coat of paint as she wows the world by hosting the F1. I'm looking for an articulated set of beliefs and values that would transcend the basic need for survival.
I don't think we really have that yet.
When I was much younger, Singapore took an almost militant stand against gambling. I remember jumping on the bandwagon a little when people said Singapore was boring, and would be more vibrant if it opened up a little on this; and that the old man was just being an anal-retentive puritan who was out of touch with the times. But deep down I was proud that we stood up for something, and that LKY defended these beliefs in the face of criticism and the lure of monetary opportunity. I miss that feeling so much.
Just today, it was announced that Asia Pacific Breweries, the makers of Singapore's own Tiger beer, would be sold to Dutch brewery Heineken. The reason given was that the economic incentive was too good to pass, and they were doing what was right by their shareholders.
I can empathise, especially when we live in an era where cashing out seems to be the end game plan for new corporations these days. Yahoo! should have sold while they were up, Facebook cashed out at the right time, and my beloved Digg is now touted as the cautionary tale of not selling out at the right time.
So I can understand the pressure on Hsien Yang to roll the company over for a good profit, and his explanation that they had their shareholders in mind. But I can't help the general feeling of despair, that the shadow of Mammon — sheer, the unadulterated love of money — looms over everything we have. Tiger Beer was a brand we grew up with, and one of the few global brands that belonged to us; and it no longer belongs to Singapore. We have lost another part of ourselves.
Every now and then we are asked the question: what will you die for? The model answer, as everyone knows, is "family". Without being as dramatic, I'd post the question, what would we fight for? More compassion for the poor, the handicapped, the underprivileged. An end to senseless discrimination, in its many shapes, forms and guises. For home.
Because home is more than a place family gathers. Home embodies a set of beliefs, protected from the harsh Darwinian forces of nature. I imagine my children running down sunny halls filled with Singaporean poetry and song. Dare we dream these things, or do we continue the push and pull of train timings and square footage of HDB flats?
As Gilbert wrote,
These are things I know I may never learn
to say. So we speak of smaller daily things,
and soon this brief connection will
unmake itself, and expire.
Disclosure: I work at the National Population and Talent Division, but the views I share here are my own…you know the drill.
Update: There have been quite a number of citizen-initiated efforts, especially since National Day is round the corner. Thought I'd try to capture the ones that I come across. If you found any notable ones not here, drop me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Fruity, fun and full of flavour. I make so many different trifle recipes for anytime of the year. This was super easy, quick and simple to do, perfect pudding to make with the children for an end of the week treat.
Apologies for taking ages to post again I went on a small trip south of NSW, to Jervis Bay, the whitest sand in the world at Hyams beach.
What you will need:
- Strawberries & Apricots (any fruit)
- Sponge Cake or Sponge Fingers
- 1 Packet of Strawberry Jelly
- 2 tbsp Brandy/Sherry/Orange Juice
- 2 cups Vanilla Custard carton/packet
- 200ml Thickened Cream
- 100ml Sour Cream
- Almond Flakes
- 100,000
We used up what was leftover in the fridge, you can double the ingredients, depending on the size of the bowl you choose.
1.Select your bowl. Cut up the sponge into rectangular pieces and chop the fruit into half.
2. In a separate bowl, pour the sachet of jelly powder, follow the instructions on the back with how much water you need to use. Stir and set aside to cool for later.
3. Layer and spread the piece of sponge along with the fruit, leaving some for decorations on top. Drizzle the brandy/sherry/OJ roughly over the sponge and pour the cooled jelly mixture on top. Pop it into the fridge for 30 mins or until the jelly has set.
4. In another bowl, pour the thickened cream and sour cream in together.
5. Using an electric mixer, mix well until all combined and the cream thickens.
6. Start the layering!
Take your serving dish out of the fridge, check the jelly has set. Then pour your custard over, making sure its all covered, so it creates a thick layer.
7. Then over the custard, pour and spread the cream mixture.
8. Decorations!
Sprinkle over the almond flakes and 100,00 which are fun for the children.
9. Put the finished trifle into the fridge to chill ready for later.
Tips: More ingredients creates thicker and neater layers. The children and I had a lot of fun making and eating the ingredients as we went along. All the different textures and flavours make this pudding so delicious and fun.

30 Jun The Fun of the Fourth
Around these parts, we have a small town parade on the fourth of July and all the participants throw candy to the kids on the side of the road. Honestly, when going home with bulging bags of candy, necklaces and marketing gadgets-it always seems more like Halloween. But of course the kids love it.
We also have a huge fireworks display on the beach in Seaside. People have bonfires and also set off their own-making it practically a war zone if you are on the beach itself with kids. I didn't know this my first year here and took my kids and niece on the beach to watch the display. So this past year, they implemented a "free zone"-an area in which people can watch from but not set them off in-and this year they are doubling the space.
And of course, there is entertaining. As I get older, it gets harder to pack it all into one day but the day is also important for this. The kids and I plan on having Teriyaki Shish Kamikes on the grill and watermelon. Although we might have to have them early because we got ahead of ourselves and already went shopping. (smile)
If you are fresh out of ideas to celebrate the fourth, we are here to help.
- Throw a backyard party and invite neighbors that you've never met.
- Have a garage sale to recycle and make some cash (yes, a lovely neighbor of mine is having one for a half a day on the fourth and all day on the fifth).
- Send the kids to friend's house and having a romantic, elegant backyard dinner-just the two of you.
- Travel to another town for the parades and fireworks.
- Find a carnival. May hometown of Port Orchard, WA has a great one.
- Catch up on yard work and gardening.
- Find a way to give back to your community.
And…don't forget to keep those pets inside on the fourth!

Few leaders exhibit great leadership skills. You know a great leader when you're working for one. Great leadership is dynamic, it melds a variety of unique skills into an integrated whole. Effective problem solvers or Great Leaders have the following traits:
- Effective Communication – A good leader knows how to communicate. Effective communication is a fundamental element of how leaders accomplish their goals each and every day. You can't become a great leader until you are a great communicator. Great communications inspire people. They create a connection with their followers that is real, emotional and personal regardless of any physical distance between them. Great communicators forge this connection through an understanding of people and ability to speak directly to their needs.
- Courage – People need courageous leaders. People will wait to see if a leader is courageous before they are willing to follow his or her lead. They need someone who can make difficult decisions and watch over the good of the group. They need a leader who will stay the course when things get tough. People are far more likely to show courage themselves when their leaders do the same.
- Humility – Great leaders are humble. They don't allow their position of authority to make them feel that they are better than anyone else.
- Generosity – Great leaders are generous. They share credit and offer enthusiastic praise. They are committed to their followers success as they are to their own. They want to inspire all of their employees to achieve their personal best, not because it will make the team more successful, but because they care about each person as an individual.
- Self awareness – Great leaders have a high self-awareness, meaning that they have a clear and accurate image not just of their leadership style, but also of their own strengths and weakness. They know where they shine and where they are weak, and they have effective strategies for leaning into their strengths and compensating for their weakness.
- Passion – Passion and enthusiasm are contagious. Great leaders are passionate about what they do, and they strive to share that passion with everyone around them.
- Authenticity – Authenticity refers to being honest in all things, not just what you say and do, but who you are. When you are authentic, your words and actions align with who you claim to be. Your followers shouldn't be compelled to spend time trying to figure out if you have ulterior motives. Anytime they spend doing so erodes their confidence in you and in their ability to execute. Leaders who are authentic are transparent and forthcoming. They aren't perfect, but they earn people's respect by walking their talk.
- The are approachable – Great leaders make it clear that they welcome challenges, criticism, and viewpoints other than their own. They know that an environment where people are afraid to speak up, offer insight and ask good questions is destined for failure. By ensuring that they are approachable, great leaders facilitate the flow of great ideas throughout the organization.
- Accountability – Great leaders have their follower's backs. They don't try to shift and they don't avoid shame when they fail. They are never afraid to say, " The buck stops here," and they earn people's trust by backing them up.
- Sense of purpose – Whereas vision is a clear idea of where you are going, a sense of purpose refers to an understanding of why you are going there. People like to feel like they are part of something bigger than themselves. Great leaders give their followers that feeling.
- Adherence to the Golden Rule +1 – The Golden Rule – Treat others as you want to be treated. Assumes that all people are the same. It assumes that, if you treat your followers the way you would want a leader to treat you, they'll be happy. It ignores that people are motivated by vastly different things.
- Infectiousness – Great leaders know that having a clear vision isn't enough. You have to make that vision come alive so that followers can see it just as clear as you do. Great leaders do that by telling stories and painting verbal pictures so that everyone can understand not just where they are going but what it will look and feel like when they get there. This inspires others to internalize the vision and make it their own.
What are other traits that make great leaders? feel free to comment below and if you like this post, you can share it with others.

Chronicles of Meridiana -- excerpt #5
Date: 5/15/2017, Categories: First Time, Hardcore, Lesbian Sex, Author: bigfella1313, Source: xHamster
Sick of writing cute intros. Here's the next part: My lust had finally faded to a dull ache, and a little energy had returned. I flipped the butt away, grabbed one of the unopened bottles of soda, the pack of smokes and my stash box and headed back into the unknown, for more of the mind-twisting pleasures these two girls were bringing to me. They were locked in a sixty-nine on the bed when I came back in, and it looked like they were on the road to a big finish. Each was kind of on her side so no one was on top or bottom, their heads curled into the space between the other's thighs. Their noises were a****listic, almost roaring openmouthed into each other's squirming quims, their movements urgent but rhythmic and totally synced to one another. It was like some kind of mad scientist's perpetual fuck machine and I was back up to full mast within seconds of walking through the door. I had to carefully take my pants back off to avoid stimulating myself too much and in dismay I realized that despite my taking a little break, I wasn't really going to be able to do much without blowing another load almost immediately. They took no notice of me at all as they moved ever closer to spending themselves onto each other. Their bodies were shiny with sweat and their pussy juices, and I was struck at how different and yet how complementary their bodies were. Diana was rounded, soft, voluptutous, smooth, a tiny gyrating package of slippery pink sweetness. Her pussy was shaved bald and her ...

Senkbeil Published in January Edition of Journal of Chemical Education
SALISBURY, MD--Dr. Edward G. Senkbeil, professor of chemistry in the Richard A. Henson School of Science and Technology of Salisbury State University, has recently published the article, "Inquiry-Based Approach to a Carbohydrate Analysis Experiment," in the January edition of the Journal of Chemical Education. Senkbeil's article describes an inquiry-based laboratory experience which was developed and presently utilized in the undergraduate biochemistry courses at Salisbury State. The laboratory experience requires students to do background reading, and to develop protocols and flow charts for analysis of an unknown carbohydrate before actually doing the experiment.
"This open-ended type experience gives the students an opportunity to pose their own questions, design and pursue their own investigations, analyze data, and present their findings in a logical manner," said Senkbeil. "Students learn more by doing than by watching. Students commonly comment that this is one of the most time-consuming labs, but also the most satisfying because of a sense of accomplishment and completion."
The laboratory experience was initially presented at a poster session at the 1997 annual meeting of the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in San Francisco.
