Brothers and Sisters, welcome back to Let Us Play!
If you've been watching the news within the gaming sphere today, you may have already encountered this story, but I think it's important to talk about it and attempt to put a cap on this sort of sensationalist reporting, and set the record straight before the rumours surrounding it become pernicious. This morning (Australian time), some information, seemingly devastating statistics for Nintendo, was posted to GameRant. This supposedly new information, was fresh out of Games Developers Convention 2017, which ran from Februaury 27th to March 3rd. The chart that was released that had been drawn up out of a survey of over 4500 attendees of GDC 2017, which showed what percentage of participants were developing games for which consoles, with only 3% ( around 135 out of 4500) saying that they were developing for the Big N.
Rory Young of GameRant said:
10 different platforms were included on the survey list, with mobile platforms like iOS and Android being lumped into one Smartphone/Tablet category and VR headsets being lumped together similarly. Out of those 10 platforms or categories, the Nintendo Switch was ranked very last.
This chart is the one that they are referring to and the one that GameRant have in their article. However this isn't the whole story.
Through a lack of investigation, GameRant has reposted a biased chart, and it has subsequently exploded, being shared around by Nintendo enthusiast sites and neysayers alike, some of which acting as though it's some kind of death knell for Nintendo's new baby, and the company as a whole.
Word of advice; as two million sales will tell you, this tired meme couldn't be further from the truth.
Yes, the chart does indeed show only 3% of the 4500+ developers, working on games for the Nintendo Switch, dead last in the runnings. However, you can't treat a chart like this, as though it's some statistical island. When it comes to interpreting the data, there is no given context on which to base ones understanding of what is being seen, and without context even seemingly cut and dry statistics are worthless.
All we know that 3% of 4500+ devs are working on a game for the Nintendo Switch; the three big contextual questions that have to be answered are:
- When was this survey taken?
- Who was taking/administering the survey?
- Is there possibility of bias and/or false data?
Firstly, I think that it's important to point out this chart is far from new. Ok, this particular chart above is pretty new, it was released on March 15th, through the statistical journalism websites Statista, not from GDC themselves. There was also a small accompanying article written by staff writer Felix Richter. This is important because it shows that Richter and Statista are a node along the informational highway, a point in which information can be manipulated, and biases and agenda inserted, and the biases are pretty clear.
Here is the original chart, as posted by GDC themselves, back on January 15th 2017:
As you can plainly see, this chart is titled "Which platform(s) are you *currently developing* games for? (Choose all that apply)"
It is Richter who has renamed his chart to imply "importance" of a console something that the original chart was not trying to establish, but will have an subconscious effect on how people view the Nintendo Switch, after reading the article.
It is also Richter and his own personal biases which has resulted in his chart stopping with the Nintendo Switch in last place, when the original chart included twice the number of entries, half of which are below the Switch. Sure it doesn't look good on the original chart for the Switch either, being down in tenth place, but it's not like the platforms on par, or below the Switch are new or unknown devices, including current generation handhelds like the 3DS and Playstation Vita.
Richter also writes in the accompanying article:
Even though Nintendo's new gaming console Switch appears to be off to a great start, it still lacks where it matters most: in terms of game selection. At launch, Nintendo fans had just five games to choose from, including one blockbuster title in the new Zelda game.
If he is only referring to physical releases, and only in the North American region, then sure. However that's not the whole story. Digital release games such as The Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove with timed exclusive access to the Spectre of Torment chapter, I Am Setsuna, FAST RMX, and unexpected gem Snipperclips were also available on the eShop from day one in the North American region. In the PAL regions we also received the NeoGeo ports (virtual console?) of King of Fighters '98, Metal Slug and Shock Troopers, amongst others. Finally, in Japan another six games were released including PuyoPuyo Tetris, Disgaea 5 Complete, Dragon Quest Heroes I & II and Blaster Master Zero.
Across all regions, digital and physical releases, over twenty games were released on launch with the Nintendo Switch. Some people my say this is me nit-picking and fair enough, I can understand why you might think that, but the fact remains that North America isn't the be all and end all of games releases, and in this day and age, neither are physical games. These are things to be considered when posting to the WORLD WIDE web. On day one, I personally purchased more games, than Richter claims were even available.
Richter's statement is just wrong, and suggests a conscious bias or an ignorance of the subject, neither of which are desirable traits in a journalist. Taking into consideration the decision to cut off his chart to portray the Switch as being the least "important" platform, I would personally argue the former, but that's just my opinion. Take from it what you will.
Next up, when was this survey even taken?
When searching for hits on the GDC Survey for the 2017 event, I first started seeing people talking on Twitter about the survey back in November 2016, with people commenting on the survey, their answers and early impressions from the incomplete results. This is one of the most important pieces of context for why Nintendo Switch may be ranked so low.
This survey was taken between the First Look trailer from October 20th, 2016, and the Official Switch Presentation on January 13th, 2017. This was an uncomfortable period for developers working on the Nintendo Switch, to say the least. Even big name companies like Bethesda and 2K were not allowed to confirm their involvement with the Switch, despite their games Skyrim and NBA2k17 respectively, being featured in the First Look trailer. Square Enix were asked to retract a statement concerning Dragon Quest XI earlier in the year, and lots of other games have been kept quiet for a very long time. Even the number of development kits that have been sent out, has been a secret. Nintendo did however announce that there were over eighty games coming to the Nintendo Switch this year, and on February 28th, Nintendo revealed that sixty of those were indie titles.
Assuming that Nintendo didn't outright tell developers not to answer this question, an unlikely scenario to be sure, it's more than possible that due to the strict non-disclosure agreements that these studios have with Nintendo, that these developers didn't know whether or not it would be a good idea to answer this question, anonymous or not. Simply, they didn't want to incur the ire of Nintendo for saying the wrong thing.
If this survey were taken at the end of 2017, with the same results then we'd have a problem, but knowing the sort of nonsense that Nintendo were pulling with their borderline abusive silent treatment, I'm really not surprised that the number is so low. In fact the GDC's write up concerning their original chart may reinforce this hypothesis:
Nintendo's new Switch console is also expected to debut this year, so it's interesting that 3 percent of respondents said they're currently working on a game that will release on Switch and 5 percent said they expect their next game will be released on Switch.
Clearly there is a disconnect between those two questions, and it begs the question, how far does that actually go?
Furthermore, the above tweet brings up the question of bias again, with the claims of a heavy emphasis on VR. Looking at the write up, I would agree that a lot of the content is referring to VR, and a good number of survey questions focus exclusively on VR and AR development and devices. In a pamphlet that is only fourteen pages long, three of which are covers and introduction, a few pages are taken up by charts, a whopping four and a half pages are taken up by talk of VR/AR, exclusively. That's a lot, considering the remaining pages are a mish-mash of everything else.
It seems quite clear what GDC were focusing on in their survey this year.
While it won't account for all the percentage points on on that chart it makes me wonder, if this bias towards VR/AR developers affected the results. Interestingly, PC, PS4/Pro, Xbox One/Scorpio and VR devices are all at the top of the list, with the inclusion of mobile app developers which I would be surprised to find any lower. All of the top platforms are VR capable, including some of the smartphones. Could a high rate of VR developing respondents, contribute to the low score of the Switch considering it's not VR capable?
There's no way to know for sure, but it's a possibility. One of many I'm sure.
And Finally…
I want to end this whole schpiel by saying, way before we even knew for certain that another console was in development, people have been declaring the Switch, or the NX as it was then called, the last console of Nintendo. We only got information about the hardware of the Switch in the past few months, but even so, well over a year ago, people were posting articles about how the Switch IS, not could be, IS underpowered, and by that virtue alone, will cause the end of Nintendo. There has always been, and always will be some Nintendo naysayers, who hate the company for their own reasons, and want to see them fail. It's these people who are willing to believe and regurgitate any information that seems to support their negative opinions, without stopping to rationalise what they are seeing.
With that in mind the chart doesn't even need to be true at all, because we, as humans, have a negativity bias. This applies to our personal negative experiences outweighing our positive ones in general, as well as the ability to retain negative information better that positive. We are more likely to step up and complain, or give scathing reviews if we think something is bad, and find it difficult to explain why things are good when they work exactly as they are supposed to.
On top of that, it seems to be the way of things that with enough repetition anything can become a "fact", people will believe this chart 100% true and accurate, because lots of websites are repeating it. In actuality, it's always a good idea to take stuff like this with a huge spoonful of salt, and then check the sources. Especially all you "journalists" who have repeated this story verbatim, without looking deeper into it. Shame on you!
Be smart consumers of not just your products and purchases, but information too. Trust, but verify!
Peace and High Scores!

We have enjoyed self-catering holidays over many years, in Scotland and around the world, from family gatherings to smaller groups of two or four. In the Hayloft we have tried to bring together all that we have loved in these places to provide the escape that a holiday should bring. The conversion provides stylish surroundings, while maintaining the rustic charm of the original building. The Hayloft provides luxury and warmth, a sanctuary for relaxing, inside and out.
The Hayloft has a double bedroom with en-suite toilet and wash hand basin. There are two bedside tables and a wardrobe and soft Egyptian linen. The twin room has two single beds and a large cupboard for clothes.
The Bathroom has a large bath with centre taps and an over bath shower.
Light streams into the principle living space, which accommodates the Lounge, Kitchen and Dining area. The high ceiling and exposed original timber beams create an impressive and airy space to relax and enjoy views of the Pentland Hills to the South. There is a wood burning stove, which heats the room well in the colder months.
We have integrated the work of local glass artist, Scott Irvine into the walls of the Sitting Room and we can provide details of where you can purchase his work as a memento of your holiday.
We are also displaying paintings by Edinburgh artist, Jen Collee with tweed and velvet soft furnishings by Jane Forbes from Glasgow.

|Part of the Avatar: New Universe and Avatar: New Universe III continuity.
|Spirit Council
|General information
|Notable members
Create universes
The kinds of universes made by the council vary between every spirit in the council. It goes between childhood plots to adventure franchises. They used to have horror worlds too but those were executed by the enforcer Ion, realizing that the evil within those worlds are too dangerous to control. The only exception in these franchises is the Elfen lied franchise, where Lucy and Nyuu are from.
The council is lead originally by the creator of life, Arceus. However, when they sealed Raviente away for the first time for his horrid law breaking, he passed down his leadership to his two most trusted Spirit Council members Xerneas and Yveltal.
Avatar: New Universe
The Spirit Council first appears right from the start with the three members Cobalion, Virizion and Terrakion arriving at one of the universal portals, where they were told to force the Avatar Gaang inside. Why they weren't supposed to tell them at first isn't clear.
The council returned later after Raviente attacks during the Starlight Fighting Championship, when they finally explain to the Gaang and Teen Titans about the reason both the teams were thrown into Altonia anyway. There the other members, Henki, Kirin, Althea, and other unnamed spirits were shown as Xerneas sent them off to their main objective.
Avatar: New Universe III
The Spirit Council become a major focus in this story, as Team Avatar and Teen Titans remain with them for the majority of the time.

The one who told you that you could fly must have given you the wings.

The one who told you that you could fly must have given you the wings.
Tabitha Bukusi
There were once two fishermen who lived by the sea. Fishermen always live by the see because it is easy to take care of their nets and ships and get to the sea. These two fishermen were great friends and did everything together on the sea. They worked together when mending their nets and set out at night to catch fish together in their boats. They even helped each other to repair their boats when they were broken. They helped each other take care of everything they owned. They were such good friends that their wives and children were good friends too.
But one day they caught a big fish in the net. When they came to the shore, each of them wanted to take it home. They sat in silence for a long time. Then they began arguing. Then they began shouting. Soon they were fighting. The other fishermen came and watched. Then the market people came and watched. Soon the whole village came to watch. Everyone was so shocked to see the two friends fighting that they too began shouting.
At last an old woman asked them why they were fighting. When they told here about the big fish she thought for a moment and then said, "It seems to me that there are many big fish out in the sea, but only this one, as far as I can see, has caused such a melee". When she finished speaking the crowd went silent. First the villagers went home. Then the market people went back to sell their goods. Then the fishermen went back to their nets. Finally the two friends stood there and were so ashamed that they threw the fish back into the sea.
Allan Bukusi
The most important life skill you must develop in life is to face adversity, rise above failure and recover from tragedy. These three have one thing in common. You have no control over them. However, life is made up of challenges you cannot avoid, fears you do not decide, and tragedies you may not make. Nevertheless success is not in the situation, but in your response to them. By engaging a challenge is your victory. By courage and overcoming fear can you rise above failure. And by hope and faith you can move on from tragedy. You may have no choice of the matter, but the choice you make decides the matter.
Allan Bukusi
There is a notion that power is limited. This theory says that if you have more power in a situation then I have less. Power in this sense is limited. This notions forces people to argue and win positions (and possessions) and take advantage over others. If this is your belief of power then everything to you is a fight. I know you can think of a number of people around you who believe everything has to be a fight. The most I can say about such people is that they are very uncomfortable to be around.
The other option you have is to think of power as a lighted candle. What a candle gives away in terms of lighting other candles does not diminish its flame. But lighting other candles does increase its influence and yet does not take away their heat or new light. People who use this power option do not have to have more power, but revel in the joy of sharing power. No this kind of power is not democracy. It does not come by taking power. It comes by giving it away. This is the power of leadership. Leaders know that power is not limited. It is in all of us and that we can work together better if we all know that we have it and can use it to light our world. The least I can say about such people is that they are very comfortable to be around.
But there is another power that is a very depressing affair. It is the people who do not know they have power. These powerless people love to play the victim. While those who believe power is limited love to fight, these people love to hurt, whine and complain. They are the kind of people you don't want to be around. They are spiteful, blameful and just awful company. The world revolves around them, against them and they are powerless to do anything for themselves. They suck sympathy from a candle like oxygen from a room. All they can think of is doom.

I was at a party recently where people of all races had gathered to enjoy the season when one person sitting in a group suddenly called out to his tribesman in his personal dialect above the din of the group conversation. They launched into a discussion of some matter that none of us could understand nor contribute to. The discussion in the room gradually quieted down to near silence as these two, who appeared to be enjoying themselves, completed their discussion then turned to their neighbors with no sign or sense of remorse. This overt display of "us and them" may not have been intended to communicate apartheid, but it did.
I wondered why I was so offended when the two were not even talking to me or near me. I wondered why a cold sweat and dry feeling of contempt attacked me. I wondered if anyone else felt the way I did or if they had simply run out of things to talk about. After all, it was a small thing. I tried not to feel excluded from the dialogue but I was. For a minute, I was not part of that community. This little displaced display of disunity in community sent distressing signals. All of a sudden, people moved away from the area and found other things to do. That outburst, intended or not, had put a damper on the proceedings in the room. Ethnicity had won again or had it?
Ethnicity can create unity, but not common unity or community. While ethnicity can build unity, only leadership can build community. Leadership reaches out to the common elements of unity in a group, knowing full well, that disunity is easy to achieve. Ethnicity thus provides a perfect platform to display leadership in public. Next time you are in the community, you will have a chance to show disunity or lead common unity.

Evil makes you angry, a rebel and a victim in order to make you happy. It kills your conscience and makes you to do things that you would not do willingly. It is antisocial, greedy and makes you jealous and not content. It has no long-term benefit or sustainable return. Someone must continue to suffer as the price of your happiness. This is a sore burden to place on a soul whose life is limited. However, it often takes a long time for people to realize that evil is a cruel taskmaster.

Be careful with your money. Be generous with your talents. But be ruthless with your time; it is the only non-renewable resource you have.

Small thinking is me, big thinking is we, great thinking is others.
We spend much of our time as children thinking about ourselves. As adults, we spend most of our time thinking about us. Very few leaders any time thinking about others, yet others is the key to our own success.

...to enlist wise counsel.
The other day someone asked me to mentor them. I was a little surprised that someone should ask me to be a mentor. After all what did I know that someone else should ask me to be a mentor? And anyway, I need mentoring myself! I may have felt honored but deep down I knew I was inadequate and technically incompetent to carry out the request. After all, I consider myself a professional – I only do what I know. However, since the person persisted that I be it, I decided there must be some science to the process.
I have been a teacher, trainer, lecturer, facilitator, coach, leader, entrepreneur, author and consultant. In all those roles, I have always made it clear that there is a significant difference between all of them. On occasion, I have said that mentorship involves some if not all of those roles but is also separate from all of them – even though I had never defined mentorship on its own.
After reading a few books and evaluating my thoughts on the subject, I settled on defining mentoring as "enlisting wise counsel" or "enlisting the counsel of the wise". This differs from the other roles I have been comfortable with in one significant regard. Mentoring is NOT driven or even determined by the mentor. Mentoring is engineered by the "mentee". Mentoring cannot be imposed. The mentor is really a secondary part of the mentoring equation. The difference between a student and a mentee is that a student may not choose the teacher, but the mentee always has the privilege to choose a mentor. This leaves a mentor somewhat flawed, awed and confused, because the mentor has literally no power of control in the relationship. A mentee says "tell me what I need to know, but I will decide if I will act on it or not". The mentor is powerless to enforce or coerce. I think this is why people don't like being a mentor. It may be prestigious, but it is a totally powerless position. You can take no glory from it. You are on the sidelines and can be ditched at any time.
The mentoring process is not only the mentees initiative, but it is also ascribes wisdom on the mentor. This causes the feeling of inadequacy and trauma because by the time the mentee asks to be mentored, they have already taken the proposed mentor through a pre-selection and evaluation process of which the mentor is totally ignorant. This can be very unsettling. The mentee decides what is "wise" or who is wise. How do you describe, determine or define who is "wise". Wisdom has no technical or professional competence. It is more of a personal quality. A mentee may choose to draw wisdom from a clerk rather than the senior engineer.
Mentees generally select people with more experience to mentor them. They choose someone who has more exposure to a thing. However, not every experienced person is chosen to be a mentor. The mentor must show cause why they should be personally chosen to mentor. The only difference between two experienced people is what they have become as a result of that experience – that's character.
The third qualification for a mentor I find is understanding – NOT knowledge. Mentees generally have a lot of knowledge, indeed it takes one to have significant knowledge before it dawns on you to seek out a mentor. A mentor is supposed to help you sort out issues and interpret difficult situations. If mentees lacked knowledge, they would easily enlist a teacher. Amazingly ,the one thing all mentees seek out is someone who will listen.
So where do you find people who have experience, character, understanding and can listen? That is the six million dollar question because no one I know goes to school to study and excel in these things and neither do they set out in careers to achieve these things. These qualities are things you pick up as you go through your career. Some people acquire the first but not all four. In other words, a mentor is who you are, not what you aim to become or qualify to be. If someone choses you as a mentor it is a great honor, and very flattering, but you really have very little choice in the matter. All you can do is agree or respectfully decline as it is not possible to give adequate reasons (for yourself) to be or not to be a mentor.

He is a freak. He is super explosive. When Chris is 100% you are just in awe simply because he is so explosive and he is capable to transition and get in and out of cuts so swiftly. From my freshman year to now he has truly completed a whole lot better job of concentrating on catching the ball and getting down his psychological assignments. But he is a wonderful player. We all view him run routes and want we could run them like that. We want we had his ability. The man is just so explosive. That is the only word you can use. He is explosive. He is a certain fire wristband maker. It is great to be in a position to play with a guy like that and seem up to a man like that due to the fact you want to mimic that.

Open Source iOS Library For Detecting When A User Is Taking A Screenshot
There are a number of apps that detect whether or not the user has taken a screenshot such as Snapchat and the Facebook app.
There have also been a few ideas on exactly how to do perform this detection.
Here's library from Clay Allsop called ShotBlocker uses a simple technique to detect if the user has taken a screenshot by polling the camera roll based on a timer and checking if a new image has been added that matches the size of the user's screen.
The library executes a callback block when a new screenshot is detected.
You can find ShotBlocker with usage instructions on Github here.
A simple solution to this problem. Chpwn has written on his blog about how taking screenshots cancels all screen touches so possibly using UILongPressGestureRecognizer and looking for the state to be UIGestureRecognizerStateCancelled rather than polling based on a timer could be a better approach.

Letter to Voice of the People
O'Hare, a Continuing Problem
It is outrageous that O'Hare, Chicago, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Congress and the airlines are 1) pushing to jam to much traffic into the airspace, thus reducing the separation between aircraft in the air and 2) continuing to increase the concentration of the numerous hazardous wastes created by the planes burning kerosene based fuel by the increased flights and tighter flight patterns. Yet, Chicago and airline industry, with the support of the FAA is pushing Congress to lift the traffic flight cap that is presently in place to push even more traffic onto the already overburdened runaways and airspace. This is in addition to Chicago already stating that they are going to build 2 more terminals (most likely more to come, but unannounced at this time), to push the total from 4 terminals to 6 terminals.
It almost appears based upon their actions, that they are going to push the traffic up until there is an accident and then claim it is a necessity to build additional runways to handle the increased flights, you know, for "safety."
This statement may sound outlandish at first, but take into consideration that there has never been a health study done at O'Hare and the last environmental impact study released was in 1984, which was performed by the contractor building the addition on O'Hare at the time. This is in spite of the Seattle Washington's King County Airport data which showed (take into consideration it only has 40% of O'Hare's traffic), 1) average life expectancy was 70.4 compared to Seattle's average 76 years, 2) 57% higher heart disease, 3) infant mortality rate 50% higher, 4) 83% higher pregnancy complications, 5) 57% higher asthma rate and 6) 48% higher all causes of death. Other data by the State of Washington Department of Health shows that many cancers are up near another airport and that certain cancers increase the closer one lives to an airport. Yet, another risk analyses by airport workers at Oakland Airport predicts similar incidents of cancers, respiratory and other diseases consistent to the above findings in airport workers. Moreover, The Air Pollution - Chicago O'Hare study, dated 1997, and produced by Paula F. Cowan, M.D. very conservatively reported based on EPA data, at least 25 tons of benzene, approximately 140 tons of formaldehyde and about 25 tons of benzo (a) pyrene and 30 tons of butadienes are generated annually by O'Hare.
The people who are aware of these facts are not saying close O'Hare, only lets cap the current traffic and do a extensive health study to determine what is an acceptable level of traffic based upon a complete and objective health study. Not the truly reckless behavior of the Airlines, Chicago, O'Hare, FAA and Congress who are completely out of control and focused on just increasing the flights and making sure no study gets done (if they were not blocking a study being done, one would have been done). The very people who are ruthlessly putting us and our families at risk, are the very ones put in place and given the publics trust to protect us.
Now is the time to show us just how concerned you really are about the health and warfare of the people who elected you by immediately funding a extensive health study.
Almost just as disturbing is the lack of coverage by the press, newspapers and television because of the fear of losing the airline advertising dollars.
How many parents and children have to suffer unnecessary health problems/die early, resulting in broken homes and hearts before something is done. From a very concerned and sad father.

The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
this is pretty much a end all for damage. It focuses on armor pen and health% with the madreds, and it pretty much usable on anything from karthus to Garen
you'll wanna start off with a dagger or vampiric scepter, depending on how you are at survivability. also pick up a health potion.
i always start with pick a card, because it gives you: Stun, Slow, and Mana Regen(provided you play it smart)
pick up sword of the divine ASAP, as that will stack with your Stacked Deck for an increase in dmg, mixed with a stun or 2, and theres your killing power.
Add malady for lifesteal and speed (can be replaced later with Bloodthirster if you are willing to sac the speed)
Now, situationally you can either go Wit's End here (if you are playing against a caster/mana heavy team) for your 4th item, or Last Whisper ( for those roid raging tanks with WAY too much armor)
Madred's Bloodrazors very simply put will F&^$ up ANYONES day as its damage is set at a %-age, that paired with Last Whisper will knock out a tank in a few moments (remember to kite, thats your key to survival)
Infinity Edge is a given as well, it gives you more Damage...AND higher crit.
With the black cleaver, that is an optional item to replace the last whisper (again only if you want to sack speed)
Hope this helps, and remember this isnt a HOW TO PLAY TF guide, this is a HOW TO BUILD HIM AND RAPE guide

As we prepare for Fast Track 2015, the time of communal fasting that has been set aside in the first ten days of February, I am excited at the prospects of devoting some time to seeking God through prayer and fasting. I recall listening to a message by Craig Clark some years ago where he told the Bible story of how Elijah challenged the prophets of Baal to let the true God make Himself known by sending fire to consume a sacrifice that each side would have prepared. The prophets of Baal went first and hours of prayer later – their god had not sent fire. When it was Elijah's turn he prepared his alter and sacrifice and in addition to that he built a trench around the entire structure. He poured water on the sacrifice – so much water that it ran down and filled the trench. Elijah then prayed to God asking him to send the fire.
God then sent a fire that consumed everything – the sacrifice as well as the water in the trenches. In his message, Craig equated the act of fasting to an act of faith similar to digging the trenches. He explained that by fasting as with digging the trenches, it makes room for God to fill us with his presence and to go beyond our own expectations. Coupled with the act of faith, Elijah prayed earnestly for God to send the fire and reveal Himself to the worshippers of Baal as indeed being the only true God.
This message came at a time when we were fasting in February and the fasting was coupled with a weekly meeting to pray as a community of believers (affectionately known as WWE). The atmosphere was charged with expectancy as we came together and prayed for the things that we were trusting God for in our personal lives and in our church community. It was a time where we stirred up each other's faith as we lifted our voices as one. It was a time where we agreed with each other believing that it would be done as the Word of God says. We trusted that as the Word of God says, where two or three are gathered there He is and indeed His presence was tangible. After each meeting, as we parted ways, I always felt fuelled and encouraged to continue with the fast, digging the trenches to make room for God.
It has been a few years since and WWE prayer nights have since evolved to Prayer Blasts. As I greatly anticipate the first week of February with the start of Fast Track 2015 and a prayer blast on Wednesday night, I look forward to yet another moment to pray and seek God with others. Like-minded people, digging trenches in faith, seeking God and together trusting God for breakthroughs like the fire he sent when Elijah prayed. So come, come and let us stir up our faith together, let us gather and agree together and let us leave ignited and fired up to step out in faith as we fast.

Since Simon Grayson arrived at Sunderland, he has been refreshingly straight talking.
From his very first interview with the club website he has spoken openly and enthusiastically about the challenges that lie ahead of him. He has not been afraid to call players out for poor performances and has laid down the gauntlet to the entire squad stating that he will drive want away players "wherever they want to go."
This is music to the ears of many Sunderland fans who grew tired of David Moyes continually telling us that the players were doing their best but merely lacked quality.
Grayson's desire to assemble a squad full of players who are determined to fight for the shirt is admirable and shows an understanding of the culture amongst our fanbase. He has also talked about players previously signing for Sunderland the wrong reasons, which is again difficult to disagree with.
But such a transformation is easier said than done and he must back up his words with actions.
His signings so far have been promising in that regard, all the additions have a point to prove, whether it's to resurrect their careers or young players looking to make a mark at a big club in the Championship.
Even experienced goalkeeper Robbin Ruiter appeared to be delighted to join the lads. In a photo doing the rounds on Twitter, he has already dressed his child in a Sunderland shirt and he's spoke of his pride in joining a club of our stature.
But we've seen this all before – when Moyes arrived at Sunderland he spoke impressively and the majority were supportive of his stance with Kone, and look how that turned out.
By the end of the transfer window Grayson must have moved on most of the players he deems to have poor attitudes and replaced them with players in his image.
Of course, I don't expect him to perform miracles in one transfer window, particularly when he's working with an incredibly restrictive transfer budget. But if a few months into the season we aren't seeing a well-drilled side with players giving their all, questions will quite rightly be asked.
Personally, I think Grayson is the right man at the right time for Sunderland. His record of working with relatively low budgets and stabilising teams is exactly what we need. I firmly believe he needs time to work but I'm not convinced he'll be given it.
We have not finished below third in the Championship since 1995 and as such people will perhaps have similar aspirations this time around despite our circumstances being markedly different.
Grayson is also unlucky in that he doesn't have the luxury of being a big-name manager. Take Rafa Benitez at Newcastle for example. He was forgiven a slow start and in-different runs of form because of his reputation. The players, rather the Benitez took the flack.
In 06/07 Roy Keane was similar –his standing in the game and big personality gave him time and patience. Grayson although a decent manager at this level is already facing a slightly uphill battle as some people feel his appointment is further confirmation of our demise.
Therefore, he must make good on his promises to get a bit of momentum around the place again.

Another Monday and Another Bachelor in Paradise – Chris Bukowski
Not sure we're really loving the premise of finding love on this show – it's well, kind of dumb and sleazy but that's also why we watch it, right? Plus, any show that includes Chris Bukowski with any woman, is sure to be interesting. Mix that formula with crazy Michele K. (who opted out of the show last week) and a producer by the name of Putz and you've got episode 2 of Bachelor in Paradise. Congrats producers (except Putz who ended up with two broken legs – maybe he should be called Clutz). To get the full recap of last night's Bachelor in Paradise click here.

Carolyn Bettencourt Bio
I grew up on a dairy ranch in Penngrove, and have lived in Sonoma County ever since. As a young woman, I worked in an administrative capacity for the Sonoma County Social Services Department, Economic Development Board, and District Attorney's office before joining the Petaluma Police Department as a Parking Enforcement Officer. In 1979, my husband Larry and I opened a successful independent auto parts store in Petaluma. My responsibilities included customer service, working with vendors, financial planning, and hiring and supervising employees. In addition, I completed the Sheriff's Office Citizen's Academy and subsequently joined the Sonoma County Sheriff's Office VIP program. The business was sold and we retired in 2008. Our dream of moving to Oakmont was realized in 2012. We enjoy our involvement in many Oakmont club activities. Oakmont is very special and unique, and it would give me great pleasure to serve our diverse community.
Three Questions
All my decisions are based on looking at things from a common sense position. When I need to make a business decision, I look for the most economical and reasonable way to accomplish it. In 1979, my husband and I opened and operated an independent auto parts store in Petaluma. Together, we set the foundation with sound decisions that kept the business successful and prosperous for 30 years. I have considerable experience working with vendors, customers and employees. This knowledge will serve me in making the best decisions for the community as a whole.
I see the role of the board as overseeing all OVA facilities and finances. The Board has a fiduciary responsibility to consider what the financial impact would be when making all decisions that affect the membership. I believe it's the Board's duty and responsibility to truly listen to the needs and desires of the community. Priorities should be set in making certain that all existing facilities are maintained and safe. Safety is the number one concern. Building and adding new amenities should be considered only after all existing facilities are upgraded and in proper and safe working order and when it is financially feasible to do so.
We should not rely solely on communicating via email or posting at the Berger Center. Some residents may not have access to a computer, and there are residents who may have mobility issues and who may not have access to the bulletin board. All important information should be provided in either the Oakmont News or an insert in the paper. In some cases/circumstances, a separate mailing may be required/appropriate. We need to use every possible means in communicating with residents.

Zamfara State Governor Abdulaziz Yari has attributed the current outbreak of meningitis in the country to retributive justice from God.
The governor said the current outbreak of Type C Cerebrospinal Meningitis is God's way of punishing Nigerians for their immoral conduct.
The governor spoke in Hausa during an interview with State House reporters yesterday after meeting President Muhammdu Buhari.
Zamfara State is the most ravaged in the latest outbreak, accounting for 215 out of 336 deaths nationally.
"What we used to know as far as meningitis is concerned is the 'type A virus' which had been tackled through vaccinations by the World Health Organisation (WHO), the governor said.
"However, because people refused to stop their nefarious activities, God now decided to send Type C virus, which has no vaccine.
"People have turned away from God and He has promised that 'if you do anyhow, you see anyhow,' that is just the cause of this outbreak as far as I am concerned.
"There is no way fornication will be so rampant and God will not send a disease that cannot be cured," Yari stated.
"The most important thing is for our people to know that their relationship with God is not smooth. All they need to do is repent and everything will be all right."
Asked whether leaders also need to repent, he said "leaders are doing their best by enlightening the populace and working assiduously for the good of all," but that they cannot go from house to house and arrest offenders.
He said a meeting of stakeholders in the state had adopted a strategy to deal with the outbreak.
According to him, the five million doses of the vaccine announced by relevant organisations against the Type
C meningitis in Nigeria "is not enough for Zamfara people alone, not to talk of Katsina or Kano".
He said Zamfara got 20,000 doses from the Federal Ministry of Health owing to the high rate of the disease in the state.
"Our Focus as a state now is to continue treating those who are infected with the disease, but as for vaccination, it has an international dimension.
"We have information that Nigeria will get the highest percentage of the 5 million doses available now. Apart from WHO, other International bodies such as the Bill Gates foundation and UNICEF are also currently focusing on how to tackle the outbreak.
FG ramps up control as death toll rises to 336
The death toll in the current outbreak rose to 336 and suspected infections figure is now 2,997, according to the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) latest report released yesterday.
Meanwhile the Federal Government "incidence management" response was switched on yesterday after the Emergency Operations Centre was activated on Monday.
The switch to incidence management is to "ensure that all activities across the country will be managed using a clear command and control structure led by an Incident Manager who reports through the Chief Executive Officer of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, to the Minister of Health," the NCDC announced.
"With this new coordinating structure, the country will have a tight, multi-partner team of experts pulled from the most competent agencies focusing on outbreak control in Nigeria," Lawal Bakare, technical advisor for communications at NCDC said.
The central command is similar to response to Ebola viral disease outbreak in 2014, but the command centre for meningitis will be headed by John Oladejo, head of emergency preparedness and response at the NCDC.
Experts from the Federal Ministry of Health, NCDC, NPHCDA, WHO, UNICEF, Africa CDC, US CDC, Medecins Sans Frontieres, AFENET, University of Maryland and E-Health Africa will have roles on different components of the meningitis outbreak—all coordinated in one place.
So far, half a million doses of Meningitis C vaccines have been distributed to affected states for immediate vaccination in response to the outbreak.
An additional 823,970 doses of the vaccine are expected from the United Kingdom to support vaccination in other affected states.
The EOC will begin state-wide vaccination today in Zamfara and then move on to 15 more states.
"We are confident that we have turned the tide, and with increasing vaccination activities, expect a reduction in number of cases," said Bakare.
"Importantly, lessons learned from this outbreak will help the country prepare for the future."

|[Incubator Wiki] Update of "TikaProposal" by JukkaZitting
|Thu, 01 Mar 2007 19:57:36 GMT
Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Incubator Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by JukkaZitting: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/TikaProposal The comment on the change is: Added the first draft of the Tika proposal New page: = Tika, a content analysis toolkit = ''This is a draft of a potential Tika proposal. Feel free to edit as you see fit, see also the discussion section at the end of the page. You can "Subscribe" this page to get notified whenever changes are made. See the [http://incubator.apache.org/guides/proposal.html proposal guide] for a description of the expected proposal content.'' == Abstract == Tika is a toolkit for detecting and extracting metadata and text content from various documents using existing parser libraries. == Proposal == The Tika content analysis toolkit will include features for detecting the content types, character encodings, languages, and other characteristics of existing documents and for extracting structured text content from the documents. The toolkit is targeted especially for search engines and other content indexing and analysis tools, but will be useful also for other applications that need to extract meaningful information from documents that might be presented as nothing else than binary streams. Instead of implementing it's own document parsers, Tika will use existing parser libraries like Jakarta POI and PDFBox. == Background == The need for tools that automatically analyze and index content is increasing as ever more information becomes available. ''TODO: Discuss the various related projects and the lack of a common analysis toolkit. Note how many of the existing tools have grown as ad-hoc solutions to specific needs, and are often tightly bound to a specific application or a parser library.'' == Rationale == ''TODO'' == Initial Goals == ''TODO'' = Current Status = == Meritocracy == ''TODO'' == Community == ''TODO'' == Core Developers == ''TODO'' == Alignment == ''TODO'' = Known Risks = == Orphaned products == ''TODO: There has been on-and-off interest in something like this for quite a while already. How can we make sure that the current increase in interest doesn't fade away?'' == Inexperience with Open Source == ''TODO: Many of the interested participants have open source background.'' == Homogenous Developers == ''TODO: There is no central company behind the proposal.'' == Reliance on Salaried Developers == ''TODO: Some of us are salaried for this, other's are not.'' == Relationships with Other Apache Products == ''TODO: Lucene, Nutch, Jackrabbit, Droids, ...'' == A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand == ''TODO'' = Documentation = ''TODO'' = Initial Source = ''TODO: Tika, Lius, Nutch?, ...'' = Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan = ''TODO'' = External Dependencies = ''TODO: Some of the potential parser libraries will be GPL-licensed or otherwise troublesome for an ASF project.

The Weekend and Witch Moutntain
Sunday, the official first day in your human calendar and this one of my favorites at least this day past Sunday was. Sometimes a Princess needs her personal time. Time to just enjoy her own company, what passes for fresh air on your world and her own thoughts.
Because I passes my Curses test and had avoided mischief at school for nearly a week I was given a weekend pass. Saturday I spent with my sister, she cooked my favorite foods, we played some games from our home world (Who rules would just make your primate heads explode) and went to the movies.
I wanted to see Watchmen but your silly Mortal rules about movie ratings made that impossible without me destroying the theater ticketer and manager (Which my sister asked me not too). And thus I ended up watching Race to Witch Mountain.
Race to Witch Mountain review.
Dear Disney, if your going to do the story of my life, get it right….
My sibling is an older sister not a brother, we landed in New York nor near Las Vegas and who in the dark lady's name is the cabby?
The Movie was trite and silly. Children from the other side of the galaxy (Like any creature in this universe could manage faster than light travel) arrive on earth seeking some silly cinematic mcguffin in order to stop some war. Run across Human muscle man cabby (contrived) and have many chases trying to get to their space trip and back home.
This Dwayne Johnson who remind me of the Rolzon at home is you're typical Hero type who dosen't want to be a hero but wants to be one….And the Children with the powers are utter idiots. All that power and brains the size of peas when it comes to using them.
Why is it Human Cinema all the people with special abilities are dolts and want to hide their powers? I swear If I was in this movie it would have been call War to Witch Mountain. Silly alien children…..
The following day (Sunday) I head out to Central park, find my special place (a part of the park I've magical looked away and only I or my sister can find or visit). I set out a picnic and for music I use a classical quartette I found playing in the park (Whom I shrunk and caged). It was a glorious day of music talking to the spirits a and wild magical creatures that live in my personal glade.
After a day of relaxation I then returned to the apartment packed a few things, said good bye and then return to school before the 9pm curfew.

Great Princess Lucinda, I`m very sorry that our movies aren`t enjoyable enough for you. Of course, can you really expect us lowly mortals to be able to make a movie good enough for someone superior like you? It´s impossible!
Oh and......please have mercy and don`t destroy me :(
- April 16, 2009 at 6:48:00 AM PDT
- Princess Lucinda Nightbane said...
Actually there are mortal movies I enjoy. But they are rare, as for mercy....we'll see
- April 16, 2009 at 8:13:00 PM PDT
Hmm, I guess you do enjoy movies in which humans are brutally murdered, right? I bet you would love Freddy Krueger films. And thanks for not immediatly turning me into a pig or something, oh most beautiful and greatest Princess of the universe *grovel grovel*

I'm moving down in the world that was possibly toad possibly goat and possibly destroyed I'm probably batting a 1000 here

Actually I'm not into horror movies nor am I into movies as you described Kate.
1. mortal Horror is far from Horrific.
2. I'm not some sociopath.
which is by tghe way insulting....hmmm a pig you say?
- May 15, 2009 at 10:57:00 AM PDT
Oh No, no no no. I would never dare to call you a sociopath, of course not :( But seeing as you enjoy the torture of mortals, I just thought....uhm..I...uh.....please don`t turn me into a pig?

R' Chaim Malinowitz Shlit'a, Rav of Beis Tefillah in RBS-A has looked into the energy work R' Orit practices and stated there is no issur involved and no avodah zara and mutar to practice this type of energy therapy.
Emuna energy therapy has worked amazingly well for me and my family. It boggles my mind every time I think about where we were a yr ago compared to where we are now. The physical as well as the spiritual changes are drastic and life altering. Yes, there is homework, yes having support from another person while going through the process is important, yes it's a commitment, but Holy moly it's really really worth it!! Thank you Hashem for picking a qualified, sensitive, compassionate, loving, strong woman to be our personal shaliach. May everyone she comes in contact with, benefit from this holy gift as much or even more than we have! R.N. from Woodmere, NY
I just wanted to share a testimony of my experience working with Rebbetzin Esther. Her sessions have been extremely helpful to myself and my family, and i am very very grateful that Hashem led me to her. All that hitbodedut I've been doing is paying off! I see a tremendous improvement in my husband. I am starting to notice changes in my children- with confidence and well being. Reb Orit is always a click away and she responds quickly and efficiently. As a health and wellness practitioner myself I am impressed with her level of knowledge and understanding. I ask her questions at nauseum and she never turns me away. She has gone above and beyond my expectations…and that is very hard to do. When she start s teaching classes on her methods, I'm first in line!
It was a true joy having the experience of Rebbetzin Orit as my therapist. I have created such a great bond with her where she made me feel safe and she has tremendously helped me onto a better path in life. She even checks up on you throughout the week to see how you are feeling. I without a doubt recommend her to everyone that is in need of help ~ R. from Queens
Personally my family has benefited greatly from seeing R' Orit. Through her powerful energy work and color therapy she was able to strengthen my entire family in many different areas. Such as bed wetting, coping better, getting rid of anger, improving self esteem, removing fears, negativity, and jealousy. While providing major energy boosts, and providing very very quick results. I highly highly recommend her ~ F. from RBS-A
Shalom, Baruch HaShem, my husband had started smiling..wow, it is unbelievable. I thought I would never see him smile, he controls his anger and he seems much more calmer. It's a real miracle. Thank you, Thank you, may Hashem continue giving you the zchus to share your talent.
B'H I feel a huge shift. Kind of like a detachment from all the negativity I felt from my friendship.
My friend actually called me yesterday- the first time in weeks – with complaints and ridiculous accusations and I just let it roll off… You helped my hugely. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ~ L. from Toronto
I am so grateful to have benefited from a healing session with R' Orit. I feel like a great weight has been lifted and I now have more clarity and energy and strength and feel healing happening B'H! R' Orit is B'H a emesdik shaliach. I highly recommend a consultation and am so grateful for her involvement, koach, help and results I see and feel.
Thanks so much. *** mentioned last night that her ex told her that there was something different about her 🙂 She wasn't getting angry at him like before. Thank you for everything ~ M. from Toronto
… But for starters *** is doing fabulously!! Has called 3 times to just say how good he is feeling!!!(which is unusual for him! He's not so great with being in touch & certainly not to just tell me he's feeling good!!!!) ~ N. from Lakewood
"Torah therapy with Orit is a blessing from heaven brought down to Earth. I reccommend it for anyone seeking a better, more meaningful life."
Good morning Orit!
After listening to your voice note it took me some time to ingest all that has been said … after years of building brick after brick in my heart I can finally say that you broke that wall!!! … So yes I admit that you are definitely right about …
As I was listening to your voice messages I had a feeling of warm energy going through my entire body. .. It's truly a turn around and may these feeling s of closeness stay with me. .. ZC from NY
Hi Rebbetzin Orit. I just wanted to thank you tremendously for helping change my life. I remeber we started our energy sessions some time this time last year and im thinking about how so much had changed and my life and thoughts are so much more positive than they use to be a year ago. If it wasnt for you I would probably still be in a negative and depressive state of mind. Thank you so much for helping me!!! Oct 30, 2017
My testimonial: to know what Emet is it's Orit and her therapy. Everything she has mentioned and anticipated has been right on! The honest truth is, one did not get all these energy deficiencies in one day and you have to be patient. For my relative it took a few sessions to kick in but when I first saw that small change it was like moshiach is here!! Sometimes things are deeper than speaking with therapist and such, consciously you may think everything is on point but there is so much beneath it. And that is where Orit helped us the most! We talked out all our problems and understand them but the underlying layers needed to be cleared and balanced for us to live the most optimal life! Hashem should bless Orit and I can't wait to see the continued success between her and my family! Thank you hashem!
