IJT 186 is our first issue after the summer break and also the first in our new publishing scheme of a monthly digest of our feature articles which appeared on our site previously.
Though hailed as ground-breaking, the agreement on justice and reparations reached between the Colombian government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) guerrilla group on 23 September has also been criticized for its emphasis on recognizing, rather than punishing, past wrongs. The signing of the final deal is expected to end one of the world's longest-running wars.
After decades of slow justice, Colombian and Guatemalan victims of sexual crimes committed during their respective countries' armed conflicts are fighting to get their cases heard. In late April, Colombian human rights organizations called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to intervene and start prosecuting. Meanwhile, in Guatemala late last year, after decades of silence and neglect, victims of sexual violence achieved an important victory when a landmark sexual slavery trial opened.
IJT 182 explores how so-called chivalrous beliefs and practices may be behind the rare prosecution of female war crimes suspects.

News brief:
Almost two-and-a-half years after the Colombian government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) began peace talks in Havana, key agreements have been reached on land reform, political participation and drug trafficking.
Interview with Antanas Mockus
Iconoclastic politician Antanas Mockus received only 1.2% of the votes in Columbia's presidential election on May 28, but he is well-known for his intellectual capacities. Former dean of the National University and two-term mayor of Bogota, Mockus has mobilized public opinion against the violent actions of the Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces (FARC) guerrilla. One of his campaign themes was that "pardons were not guaranteed," because the International Criminal Court (ICC) could always step in to try these crimes. He discussed the role of the ICC in Colombia with IJT and explained why he supported it the clause for a 7-year delay before the Rome Treaty enters into force.
Fearing an escape attempt, the Colombian government transferred 59 paramilitary leaders from their detention center at a former holiday camp and brought them to trial. The warlords first appeared in court on December 14-15, in Barranquilla and in Medellin. On December 1st, these 'paras' had frantically phoned radio stations to tell of a massive build up of troops and helicopters circling the detention center where they were being held. Hundreds of heavily-armed soldiers forcibly moved them from their comfortable center in La Ceja to the Itagui maximum security prison in Medellin. One week later, they broke off talks with the government. On November 15, a few journalists were allowed to visit the 'paras' in La Ceja. Among them was a correspondent with IJT.

While hundreds of school districts were struggling financially and waiting on late state payments, the Illinois comptroller's office paid a handful of districts before the rest, including one district that inexplicably made it to the head of the line for cash.
Beardstown School District 15 in west-central Illinois enjoyed a highly unusual stream of dollars during the state's fiscal crisis, state records show, including a flurry of 46 payments totaling $1.3 million on June 18, just 12 days before the close of the budget year.
Meanwhile, other districts were waiting for hundreds of millions in state payments for critical education expenses ranging from bus transportation to special-education costs, raising the specter that the process used to dole out money was unfair or tinged with political favoritism.

From the Desk of Our Clinical Director: Music Therapy
September 5, 2014
For ages, music has been a source of inspiration, motivation and relaxation. As a licensed mental health counselor and a clinical director, I have seen how music therapy has transformed patients struggling with substance abuse or dual diagnosis. After witnessing how patients were more joyful, open and expressive after music therapy, I decided to integrate it into the treatment programs at Teen Treatment Center.
The goal of incorporating music therapy into our treatment programs is to promote healthy changes in patients cognitively, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. Whether the teens are participating in a drum circle, lyric writing, hip hop dance or just listening to music, these activities help patients get in tune with themselves.
We offer patients music therapy three times a week. Twice a week patients participate in group sessions led by the non-profit organization PATH (Preserving Archiving & Teaching Hiphop) and once a week they have a group session with a music therapist.
Music therapy provides our patients with an array of benefits. Through these therapy sessions, teens are able to reduce their stress levels, improve their self-esteem and learn team-building skills. The skills learned in music therapy can apply to their everyday lives. When teens are faced with stressful situations in the future, they can refer back to their music therapy sessions and release their feelings and emotions in a healthy manner instead of turning to drugs or other destructive behaviors.
I have witnessed first-hand the positive impact that music therapy has had on our patients. It thrills me to see our patients learn how to express themselves in such a positive way. As the Teen Treatment Center evolves, we will continue to help teens heal by utilizing innovative and conventional therapies in our programs.

Federal prosecutors will seek at least 24 years in prison for disgraced former Chicago police Cmdr. Jon Burge, saying his torture of criminal suspects decades ago shook public confidence in law enforcement and the criminal justice system.
Such a stiff sentence for Burge's conviction on perjury and obstruction of justice is sure to stir debate at his sentencing Jan. 20. The probation office has recommended that Burge face 15 to 21 months in prison under federal sentencing guidelines, while his lawyers have said they would seek probation, noting that when Burge was convicted when he was 62 and had prostate cancer.
In court papers filed last week, prosecutors disputed the probation office's findings, saying Burge deserved a sentence of about 24 to 30 years under the sentencing guidelines. The government cited the "stain" that Burge's torture of suspects left on the department and the more than $30 million the city has spent on lawyers and payouts to Burge's victims as a result of many lawsuits.

Miracles occur in the subtle shifts
-Gabby Bernstein
Some may think that miracles need to be this larger than life event. But really miracles are the subtle shifts in perception and consciousness. It could be seeing the bright side of a not so perfect situation or recognizing that an unhealthy habit is no longer serving you. These are the first steps to something better but these small miracles are no less important than the big miracle that they make.
Today wasn't the best yoga practice I had ever done no matter how hard I tried to make that my intention. But instead of feeling frustrated with my mind and body I focused on the positive aspects of it and what I had done really well. There was one small part that I had been overlooking. I had actually done a pose that I had never done before or thought I had the strength to do (see picture below) and it actually all happened by accident. I really only got into that position after trying to catch myself from falling. It then have me confidence to practice that pose some more and to perfect it.
I am so grateful for that falling moment because it made me recognize a strength I didn't know I had, and sometimes that shift, or miracle, is all you need to recognize that.
How will you shift your perception today to witness a miracle?

Never-before-seen Chaplin film
My friend Dominique Dugros sent me these wonderful screen shots from a previously unknown (at least to me, and probably to most of you) short film that might possibly be a precursor to the 1918 never-released film How To Make Movies (or perhaps a remake or rehearsal of some sort). The film was part of a French documentary called La Naissance de Charlot by Serge Bromberg that came out in 2013. I don't recognize the man playing the butler and the film was shot on a set which doesn't look familiar to me either, so perhaps it was built specifically for this film. I also wonder if this could have been made during the Mutual period. Perhaps Charlie had the idea for it then and went back to it later. But my biggest question is: Why have we not seen this before?

Very cool! Looks earlier than 1918 to me too.ReplyDelete
This is exactly the same scene from the released version with his real personal assistant, even down to him sniffing the envelope and kissing him on the head. This must have been a rehearsal since the real clip was made at his studio in his real office.ReplyDelete
I agree with Stephen. It seems like a rehearsal or something he did on a whim that he later used for "How to Make Movies". Its cool though and he looks really, really good. ;)ReplyDelete
Here's the vid comparison between the two. I think it was either a practice or a deleted scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oKGSUiY7IEReplyDelete

Marco Materazzi (pictured) has told Italy's Gazzetta Dello Sport he definitely did not call Zinedine Zidane a 'terrorist', nor did he insult the Frenchman's mother. The Italian said: 'I held his shirt for a few seconds, he turned to me, looked at
me from top to bottom with utmost arrogance and said: "If you really
want my shirt, I'll give it to you afterwards". I answered him with an
Materazzi denies calling Zidane a terrorist, insulting his mother continued…
'It was the type of insults that we've heard before so many times on
the pitch, and sometimes we don't even notice it… What's sure is that I
never called him a terrorist: I am not
cultured and I don't even know what an islamic terrorist is. My sole
terrorist is her…,' added Materazzi, referring to his
10-month-old daughter.
'I certainly did not talk about Zidane's mother. For me, mothers are sacred,' he added.
I don't want to be overly cynical, but MM would say that, wouldn't he? Looks like we'll never find out exactly what was said…

Ok all ready to learn with your thinking cap on? Good! I always start with a basic HDR technique. It is simple and easy to learn. If I can do it then everyone can. I will go into more advanced steps later.
The first thing you need to make an HDR image is a camera. You might be thinking that you need a big professional DSLR but you would be wrong. Although having a DSLR helps, it is not essential. As long as the camera can shoot RAW files, you are pretty much good to go. RAW files hold a lot more light information that was taken at the scene. The files are a lot larger then JPEGs but I now always shoot in RAW even on my little point and shoot as it gives so many more editing options.
Although you can make a decent HDR from a single RAW file, I recommend using a camera that has auto-bracketing. Auto-bracketing is the ability for your camera to take a minimum of 3 pictures right after one another, each at different exposures. If you have a DSLR camera, you probably already can do this.
People always ask me what camera I use. I have a Nikon D700 but I started out with the Nikon D40x using the manual mode to change the exposure. I also (try to) always carry around my compact Canon S95 so I can capture any surprise moments. Some of my best photos have come from this tiny, less expensive alternative.
More important than the type of camera is the tripod. Having a steady tripod is a must for serious HDR shooters. The ghosting problems caused by misaligned photos, takes you to the dark side of HDR. The images made on a tripod tend to avoid ghosting, so try to get your hands on a decent tripod. I started off on a small, shaky tripod and quickly learned that it is one of your most important tools in you arsenal. What? You don't want to carry around a tripod? If you are going out to shoot beautiful pictures, you better get serious. In my opinion, all architectural and landscape photographers should use tripods all of the time. It forces you more to think about the composition of the shot as you have to take the time to adjust the tripod.
On the software side, there are many different HDR programs that are on the market. Many of them are good but also many of them are hard to get your head around. Photomatix and Nik HDR Efex Pro are my 2 favourite two HDR programs. I mainly just stick to Photomatix as I prefer the HDR effect that it produces but HDR Efex pro has some great presets for amateurs who are just getting to grips with HDR. You will also need Photoshop to make to final enhancements to the image that your choice of HDR software will churn out.
The more HDR photography you shoot and process, the more you will learn to appreciate light and the world we live in. HDR is not appropriate for all situations but you will quickly learn when is best to use it. Don't forget that all the old photographic rules still apply. You need to use good judgment, great composition, picking the right angle and choose the appropriate lens. These all will impact the photo you make like any other situation.
After you pick a candidate for an HDR shot, set your camera to Aperture Priority so you can keep the same aperture for each image. How many exposure shots should you take? Well that is up to you. I generally use 5 exposures -2, -1, 0, +1, +2 but if I am shooting into the sun then I use 7 exposures, -3 to +3. If you shoot on a Canon DSLR then the auto-bracketing allows you to shoot -2, 0, +2. The more brackets you can get the better as it reduces noise and boosts contrast in the final image. For nearly all situations, going from +2 to -2 is enough light range. One more thing you have to remember is that you need to shoot on as low ISO as possible. The lower the ISO, the less noise you will get in the final image. No not noise from the neighbour next door but noise is a term used in photography to describe a lot of dots and marks caused by low light photography that takes detail out of a photo. This is usually 100 or 200 on cameras. 200 on my Nikon.

Peter Vaughan
Dr. Vaughan is the founding director of social work service at the Detroit Model Neighborhood Comprehensive Health Program, Inc., which later became Total Health Care, Inc. In 1976 he joined the faculty of the School of Social Work at Wayne State University with a concurrent appointment as Chief of the Life Stress Center at the Health Care Institute, later to become the University Health Service/Detroit General Hospital, where he was responsible for developing an autonomous social work service in a new ambulatory care teaching facility in Detroit's inner city. He served on several boards of directors of social service organizations in Detroit, and he was appointed to the first Detroit Commission on Aging by the mayor of Detroit. He also was as a member of the Detroit-Wayne County Area on Aging, and was appointed by Governor William Milliken to serve a term as commissioner on the State Commission on Aging. Dr. Vaughan was an active member of the then Detroit Chapter of NASW, had membership on several committees, and he was elected to represent the Chapter on the Delegate Assembly in 1980.
Dr. Vaughan joined the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania in 1981 where his teaching was primarily in the areas of social work practice, interdisciplinary collaboration in health care settings, and human behavior. He was one of four principals from three schools at the University of Pennsylvania (medicine, nursing, social work) in the West Philadelphia Collaborative for Child Health, a research and service development project funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

However, in south suburban Lansing, voters cast ballots in favor of a tax increase for extracurricular in the Sunnybrook school district. But, in north suburban Winnetka, residents voted against a referendum for a renovation project for New Trier High School.
It's one of the most well-known school districts in the Chicago region, but a solid majority of 62 percent rejected a sweeping renovation plan for New Trier High School's Winnetka campus. It called for 40 new classrooms, eight renovated ones, a new gym and field house, plus space for arts facilities and underground parking. In a statement, the board superintendent said she accepted the will of the voters, but "We look forward to continuing the dialogue about how best to provide a modern, accessible campus for our students now and into the future."
It is wording that signals proponents will likely return in the fall to ask about the project again, as is the case with so many referenda that went down to defeat Tuesday night.
A partial list shows the breadth of projects that were rejected by cash-strapped taxpayers:
- a Midlothian recreation center
- a River Forest tax increase
- a new Sugar Grove library
- in Wheeling, no increase to a monthly 911 surcharge
- a Bensenville fire surtax
- a bond for Villa Park roadwork
- a new Winfield library
- in Hampshire, two new parks
- and, in Marengo-Union Elementary School District 165, a bond to reduce class size.
"If you can make it hardcore about technology, about people being able to learn so they can find a job, then you've got a winning message," said Pete Giangreco, The Strategy Group.
Political strategist Pete Giangreco has advised the most powerful in a range of political races. He says getting local taxpayers to just say "yes" to what school boards and activists want to get done is just as challenging -- especially in tough economic times.
"You have to have stakeholders in it that are really motivated. Parents are really the driving force," said Giangreco. "If the parents are really interested and really involved, it works. If it is just the administrators or just the teachers union out there by themselves, it often fails."
That's advice that appears to have worked in Lansing, where the school board's request for a tax increase to avoid cutting $1.2 million from the operating budget of Sunnybrook District 171 actually met with voter approval.
"If this referendum did not pass, the next cuts were going to be in the classroom, which means we were going to lose teachers, which means the quality of education would go down, which inevitably would make our property values go down," said Sheryl Black, What's Best for Sunnybrook Kids Committee.
Typically, what happens is these questions, especially in a primary, are way down the ballot, and typically seniors and parents of school children are the only ones who know more than a passing amount about the issue. Without generalizing too much, analysts say the seniors tend to reject calls to spend more money.

LUCA DE CANDIA, RESPONDENT,v.HARRY WEISMAN, APPELLANT
On appeal from the Essex County Circuit Court.
For the respondent, Thomas Brunetto.
For the appellant, Benjamin M. Weinberg.
[106 NJL Page 455]
The opinion of the court was delivered by
BLACK, J. This suit was brought to recover damages for a malicious prosecution. The trial with a jury resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff for $3,000 as compensatory damages and for $500 as exemplary damages. On a rule to show cause before the trial court the amount of compensatory damages awarded were reduced to $1,850 exclusive of the $500 awarded as exemplary or punitive damages, final judgment $2,350. The defendant appealed and filed nine grounds of appeal, all of which allege trial errors as causes for a reversal.
They are all argued under the first, second, third and fourth grounds of appeal.
They call for no extended discussion, as we find they are without legal merit.
The first point argued is, that it was error by the trial court not to strike out the testimony of Mr. De Candia, the original
[106 NJL Page 456]
holder of a check, who testified: "Give me check. I hold it for you for a couple of days." A sufficient answer to this objection is, there was no exception taken to the ruling of the trial judge when he said: "The court: Assuming this is a motion to strike out, it will be denied." Record, page 26. Kargman v. Carlo, 85 N.J.L. 632. Another answer to this objection is, the Negotiable Instrument act (3 Comp. Stat., p. 3737, § 16) provides, "as between immediate parties and as regards a remote party other than a holder in due course," &c., "the delivery may be shown to have been conditional, or for a special purpose only."
Third assignment and second point argued by the appellant is, that it was error for the trial court to admit in evidence, the record in the case of Kitzman v. De Candia; which judgment was entered on July 23d, 1927.
This was admitted by the trial court, on the ground that under the cross-examination of the defendant, it had in it the question, as to whether or not there was such a suit. "Q. And you have never paid any part of that money up to this date, have you? A. No, sir. Q. There was a judgment went against you for this amount, wasn't there? A. Yes, sir." The admission of this record, as pointed out by the trial judge, was due to the cross-examination, it was not reversible error. When the record is admitted in evidence, it carries with it the entire record. It was open to the defense to ask from the trial judge, a cautionary instruction to the jury to limit its scope and application to the purpose, for which it was admitted in evidence.
Third ground of appeal includes the fifth and sixth assignments. Objections were made to two questions asked the witness Jacob W. Silverman, an attorney and counsellor-at-law of New Jersey, called by the defense: "Q. Your advice to your client at that time was that, although no consideration passed at the time the check was made the maker is criminally liable." And a question asked the same witness by the trial ...

From Islamabad, Pakistan:
Is there any other company manufacturing beef insulin other than Novo-Nordisk and Eli Lilly?
There are indeed other companies that make insulin. Another in the USA is Aventis (formerly Hoechst). Local manufacturers on the Indian subcontinent also make insulin.
Additional comments from David Mendosa, A Writer on the Web:CP Pharmaceuticals still produces and exports beef insulin. Possibly Biobras as well. For a complete list of insulin manufacturers see On-line Diabetes Resources: Insulin Web Sites.

My Fine Art America Shop
You can buy an enormous selection of my images as prints, cards, canvas, metal and other types of work from Fine Art America (FAA). FAA use the same printer, Epson papers and inksets as I do myself, so quality of the printing is very high. The design of their site is super, you can actually see what you are getting as they show great images of all the possible ways prints or canvases can be framed and you can pick and choose the options to get exactly what you like. They have some great contemporary metalic and acrylic finishes that complement my style of work as well as nice frames. All in all it is a great place to shop so I will be loading a lot of my work on the FAA site. If you don't see something on there that you saw here on my website just email me and I can load that onto the FAA site.

Below are some links to FAA pages with beautiful artwork you can buy!
Prints you buy from this website are printed by me and shipped by me personally. I provide limited editions that are signed, titled and numbered.

Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive form of cancer with few early symptoms. Dr. Christos Galanopoulos of the Renown Institute for Cancer explains the symptoms and risk factors.
According to American Cancer Society's estimates, about 53,670 people in the United States will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2017. The average lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer for both men and women is about 1 in 65 (1.5 percent), but the odds can be increased with certain risk factors. We asked Christos Galanopoulos, MD, vice president and chief clinical officer of the Renown Institute for Cancer, to explain more.
How does pancreatic cancer occur?
The pancreas is an organ located in the abdomen next to the stomach. It's about six inches long and looks something like a pear lying on its side. It releases hormones, including insulin, to help your body process sugar in the foods you eat. It also produces juices to help digest food.
Pancreatic cancer occurs when cells in your pancreas develop mutations in their DNA. These mutations cause cells to grow uncontrollably and form a tumor. Untreated pancreatic cancer spreads to nearby organs and blood vessels.
What are the signs that someone may have pancreatic cancer?
If you are experiencing persistent fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice or unexplained weight loss, you should see your doctor. All of these symptoms could be caused by other conditions, so it's a good idea to consult a physician to rule out the possibility of pancreatic cancer. The onset of diabetes also can indicate possible pancreatic cancer and would be checked as someone is receiving treatment for diabetes.
Are the causes of pancreatic cancer known?
As with many cancers, the exact causes are not known, but smoking is one factor known to double a person's risk of pancreatic cancer. Other factors that may contribute to the risk of pancreatic cancer include being overweight, having a poor diet, age and family history.
How is pancreatic cancer treated?
Once a diagnosis is confirmed — usually through diagnostic imaging such as ultrasound, CT scan, PET scan or MRI — treatment may include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy or a combination of these.

ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, Fla. (AP) — When a central Florida couple didn't receive absentee ballots in the mail, they called the elections office to find out what was going on.
Lawrence Halperin tells the Orlando Sentinel he was stunned to learn their ballots had been stolen and already been cast.
Seminole County Supervisor of Elections Mike Ertel says absentee ballots were stolen from five voters in three homes in the Spring Valley neighborhood of Altamonte Springs near Orlando. Ertel says they were fraudulently submitted, dated Oct. 12.
Ertel says he'll notify law enforcement after the election. Meanwhile, the Halperins and other victims, including registered Republican Joy McGahey, were given new ballots.
Florida Department of State spokeswoman Meredith Beatrice says there's no indication it's a widespread issue.

Leventhorpe YASS students
Bill Rammell, the Minister for Higher Education, watched 23 sixth form students from Leventhorpe School in Sawbridgeworth, Herts honoured for passing university courses from The Open University.
The students are part of the Young Applicants in Schools and Colleges Scheme (YASS) now offered in more than 300 schools which enables academically gifted students in Years 12 and 13 to study a wide range of undergraduate modules at first-year level alongside their AS and A levels.
Denise Jackson, Leventhorpe School with Bill Rammell
"What impresses me most is not that Year 13 students have been taking higher education courses and passing them, it's the range of courses that they have taken - from writing poetry to human genetics and from sustainable technologies to digital photography," Mr Rammell told the group.
17-year-old Jodi Abbott also works part-time as a sales assistant and studied the popular OU You and Your Money- Personal Finance in Context (DB123) course. "I learned quite a lot, like how money can affect different parts of your life," she said." It's definitely going to help me budget for university."
Michell Sui, 17, took An introduction to the human genome (S195) because she wants a degree in medicine. "It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be because I'm taking my A-Level Biology now and that really helped. At first I thought it would take up a lot of time, but using your time wisely means it wasn't a struggle," she said.
Mr Rammell said: "I am a great admirer of the OU and it is one of the finest creations of previous governments and I firmly believe that it opens doors and unlocks potential."
Editor's Notes
Links to government policy
The scheme fits directly with the Government's agenda in the 14-19 Education and Skills White Paper (2005) to: 'enable the most able teenagers to take HE modules while in the sixth form'.
Consequently, funding in maintained schools is available through the Learning and Skills Council as set out in their booklet, School Sixth Forms - Funding Guidance for 2005/06: Updated Information to the 2004/05 Funding Guidance, September 2005 or visit www.lsc.gov.uk.
External recognition
The scheme is also recognised by the DfES Standards and Effectiveness Unit, UCAS and the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA).

Controversial French security firm Vupen, which sells software vulnerability information to governments and businesses, has claimed it has discovered a zero-day exploit in Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system and the latest iteration of the company's browser, Internet Explorer 10. Last week, Vupen CEO Chaouki Bekrar tweeted that "various" IE10 and Windows 8 vulnerabilities had been combined to circumvent exploit mitigation safeguards in Windows 8, which was released to the public on Oct. 26. The exploit was reportedly not disclosed to Microsoft, nor was its price made public. Vupen did reveal that the zero-day could allow a particularly skilled hacker to bypass embedded security measures, which include high-entropy address space layout randomization (HiASLR), anti-return oriented programming (AntiROP), data execution prevention (DEP) and protected-mode sandbox.

By Susan Paige, November 11th, 2017 | One Comment
Most of us are not the best when it comes to spending money in grocery stores. Who doesn't like delicious chocolate bars, cookies, pizza, fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbal teas? If you calculate the amount of money you spend every month, you'll be surprised. Probably you'll realize you spend too much money on food only. Why does it happen?
The problem is in the way people buy food. Changing a couple of things can drastically influence your budget in a better way without wasting additional money and redundant food. As it is a massive issue in our society for now. People simply don't want to learn what a smart shopping is and how much food they actually need. We take care of our wardrobe and electronic devices. So, why don't we care about smart shopping? For example, you have antivirus software and Free VPN Services to Protect Your Privacy and security when using a public network. Hopefully, you really have them. So, why don't we have special apps and approaches to protect our budget from wasting money on unnecessary products?
Today, we've prepared for you a list of 7 useful approaches on how to buy and use up food wisely.
7 Money-Saving Hacks
We recommend reading the following list to the very end to pick one method only. Don't try to implement all money-saving hacks at a time. Be patient and start with a small one.
No doubt, our pieces of advice will help you. Just try!

And the 8th tip: never ever visit the grocery store while you're hungry.

Would you like to create your mobile application without the help of a developer and you have no technical knowledge?
Do not panic, there are turnkey solutions to generate superb apps in record time, without needing to be a professional development.
Here is a selection of 10 application generators to create your app with ease.
GoodBarber is a true reference in the field of mobile app generators.
This French tool has made a name thanks to its very aesthetic templates, the simplicity of its editor and its accessible prices.
Price: GoodBarber is available from 16 € / month with features already very satisfactory, including 5000 push notifications per month.
Higher formulas will however give you many functions like automatic notifications, or a statistical tool.
Need a freelancer?
Find a service provider for free
Keosu presents itself as the "WordPress applications"; Understand that this solution intends to simplify the creation of mobile apps as much as WordPress has simplified the creation of websites.
And for good reason, it is a real CMS that allows you to manage your application with great ease. Let us add that this is a French solution.
Price: Keosu is downloadable and usable for free . However, it has paid formulas to benefit from technical support and training in application development
AppliGo is an easy-to-use mobile application generator, with reactive support available in French.
Price: for 5 € / month, you can benefit from a complete app, except that it will not be available on the app stores , which is quite handicapped.
So prefer the formula to 15 € / month, more satisfactory.
Como DIY is one of the leading application providers in the market.
Its powerful editor and its many features make it a tool of choice. Available in French.
Price: the price varies according to your duration of commitment. For 1 year, the rate is $ 48 / month.
With its drag and drop tool, Appsbuilder is one of the most intuitive and user-friendly mobile application generators.
Price: at least 29 € / month to be present on app stores and benefit from the essential features.
With its original editor in the form of Leo blocks, AppMachine is a very powerful solution to create your application without developers or any knowledge.
Price: you can build your app for free by taking the time you want. You only pay when you publish it.
For this, count at least $ 39 / month, plus $ 99 / year to publish your app on the Apple Store (and $ 25 at a time for Google Play).
The great strength of Bizness Apps is the number of external tools that can be incorporated into its application: from Magento to Instagram via MailChimp.
This app generator has been designed for business (as the name suggests).
Tariff: for a single application, it will cost $ 59 / month ($ 42 with a one-year commitment).

Shoutem is a well-designed app creation tool with very licked designs, but it's probably less accessible.
Rate: The formula at 19, 90 $ / month does not allow to publish your app in the markets of applications (Apple and Android). And the top formula is $ 49 / month.
Mobile Roadie is intended for large organizations.
And, for good reason, it offers very advanced functionalities like the geolocalized targeting of the content of the application, marketing automation, community and social functions …
Price: prices are tailor-made, but Mobile Roadie is known for its fairly high rates in comparison with its competitors.
Mobincube is a mobile application generator that is accessible to all, both financially and technically.
Price: there is a totally free version. The catch is that your app will have to contain advertisements (including an introduction introducing Mobincube).
For a more professional result, we will therefore turn to at least the formula at 9, 99 € / month. Always very accessible, therefore.
To generate an application without developers or technical knowledge, you will necessarily find your happiness among these 10 solutions.
However, to create a professional application as close as possible to your needs, the best is to use a mobile application developer on Codeur.com.

The next few days are hugely important for my confidence in my site. I'll publicise more widely than friends and their friends, and so tonight I have the jitters.
The site's been live just a week tomorrow but it's hard to reign in the creeping whispers that I'm just not doing enough. Each morning makes any succeses from the day before disappear. My confidence is only as steady as the last order, or the most recent number of visitors.
So tonight I'll eat soup and watch Mad Men. And definitely not examine that nightmare where I'm Alex from The Apprentice.

Sunset & Dinner at Wadi Rum
Traditional Zarb Dinner
The sun had just set and the evening chill was just starting to kick in as we sat beside a campfire whilst traditional Zarb cooked in pits below us.
Wadi Rum sunsets.
Wadi Rum is stunning at sunset.
In the background are private tents, which looked oh so enticing and worthy of a second trip.
Wadi Rum is just a 90-minute drive from our hotel and we arrived at sunset just in time to enjoy sundowners of crisp dry champagne to toast the sunset and celebrate our trip to Jordan. We also drink coffee from gold coffee pots which are ornate and heavy. The coffee is scented with cardamon and hits the spot perfectly.
We are seated in a raised majlis beside a central fire which warms the cold desert air. We are visitors for the evening at a Beduin campsite where it's possible to stay over. Tonight we are not staying over, but I would love to come back and experience this place for longer.
Tonight's dinner is a traditional Zarb dinner. The Zarb is a Beduin underground Barbeque and consists of lamb and vegetables which are cooked underground.
In front of our majlis are three raised mounds in the sand. Each mound contains a zarb which has been cooking for a few hours. Zarbs are the traditional Beduin way of cooking and are essentially pits in the ground with hot coal on the bottom. On top of this is placed a three tiered metal shelf like system called a Barbeque rack. On the bottom shelf is the lamb or other meat and then the vegetables are on the top two shelves. This is then covered by a lid and topped with hot coals. The lamb has been cooking for about three hours. There's no aroma of food as the zarb is sealed. Instead, there's a high level of anticipation as we have been eagerly waiting to see zarb. Whilst waiting for the zarb to finish we are given a quick lesson on cooking as our Chef who makes Galayet Bandora
Raised sand pits filled with the Zarb.
The wait is over.
Smells amazing.
Crispy Veggies.
Slow Cooking at it's best.
Galayet Bandora
Galayet Bandora is made over a roaring fire in a heavy pan, ripe Jordanian tomatoes are cooked slowly with Jordanian olive oil, Garlic, green chilli and onions until it makes a deliciously rich and hearty tomato sauce. The team also made two different types of traditional Jordanian bread for us which was fantastic at mopping up the rich Galayet Bandora.
Galayet Bandora Recipe
- Good slug of olive oil – be generous if you are using good olive oil
- Sliced white onions – lots
- 1 or 2 Green chillies
- Ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped – equal amount as the onions
- Heat the olive oil
- Add the onions and green chilli and cook on a low heat until soft and not coloured
- Add the tomatoes and continue to stir on a low heat until the tomatoes are soft and have lost their shape/texture
- Add a generous amount of salt and pepper to season
Recipe "guesstimate" after watching it being made on the campfire.
Unearthing the Zarb
After some time, we get a call to let us know that the zarb is ready and we huddle around the zarb area to watch the team carefully excavate the mound of sand and raise the zarb out of the ground. Once the foil is pierced, the smell is amazing and the air is filled with an intoxicating smell of roasted meat and veggies. We are in awe of the guys who skilfully remove the hot stand from the pit along with all of the lamb and vegetables without spilling a thing.
Moist Succulent Lamb, with a side of crisp roasted veggies.
Served on a bed of rice.
The proof, as they say, is in the eating! And eat we do!
It's been worth the wait, tender lamb, rice, rich Galayet Zarb – a buried treasure trove of lamb and vegetables, Bandora and crispy bread hit the spot alongside Arabic salads, tabbouleh, hummus and oh so hot and flaky Arabic bread. Suddenly all chatter around the fire dies down as we tuck into a gorgeous meal, simple in ingredients, but so deliciously tasty, tender, succulent and fresh a real desert fireside Beduin treat.
The result is tender succulent lamb which literally melts in your mouth. Tasting slightly smoky, rich and slightly fatty, the meat is shredded by hand. Served over a bed of rice then surrounded by the vegetables which have been cooked on shelves above the meat and are usually slightly charred and extremely tasty. A side of Galayet Bandora (a simple rich tomato, garlic and olive oil sauce). Served with a crispy bread which makes a perfect desert dinner served in the most stunning of settings, Wadi Rum.
As if all of the above wasn't enough, we are treated to a traditional dessert, which came in the form of a water and flour mixture which was made into a thick batter. Cooked like pancakes, a pile of these were stacked high, each layer spread with butter. Once stacked they were cut into wedges and simply covered with some sugar. This simple dessert provided the final ending to an amazing traditional Jordanian/Beduin meal.
Cooked over a hot fire.
Slathered with butter.
Simple | Tasty | Traditional.
Wadi Rum
Wadi Rum, also known as The Valley of the Moon, is Jordan's largest valley cut into the sandstone and granite rock in the south. It's stunning and I wish we had arrived earlier as it's best explored by small jeeps giving you access to more of the Wadi and more incredible views.

Governor asks for review of nursing home abuse handling process
Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear (D) is calling on state health officials to review the way in which the state handles reports of abuse and neglect in nursing homes, according to local news reports.
The review follows an investigation by The Lexington Herald-Leader newspaper into government response to nursing home abuse in the state. Of 107 violations involving the life and safety of nursing home residents filed over a three-year period, only seven were prosecuted as crimes, according to the Herald-Leader. Often, police and local coroners were not alerted to nursing home deaths and injuries.
Beshear was originally asked by a nursing home residents' advocacy group to convene a task force to investigate the findings of the Herald-Leader. He opted for a review conducted by the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. The review is expected to conclude by Sept 1.

Gymnastics Beam moves
Balance beam is a women's artistic gymnastics event. It's the third of four apparatus, competed after vault and uneven bars in Olympic order (vault, uneven bars, balance beam, floor). It is often simply called "beam".
The Balance Beam:
The balance beam is about 4 ft. high, 4 in. wide and 16 1/2 ft. long. It's slightly padded on top (though still feels hard to the touch), and has a slight spring to it as well.
Gymnasts sometimes use chalk to add additional traction to the beam, or to mark an important spot (i.e. where they start a dismount) on the beam.
Types of Balance Beam Skills:
There are many types of skills on balance beam, including leaps, jumps, turns, holds and acrobatic moves.
In a leap, the gymnast propels herself off of one foot, performs a split at some point in the air, and lands on one foot. The gymnast must hit a full split (180 degrees or more) to avoid deductions. More difficult leaps include ring leaps, twisting leaps (with a turn during the leap) and switch leaps, where the gymnast starts on one leg and kicks the other leg forward then back into the split position.
continue reading below our video
Types of Competitive Gymnastics
Every gymnast must perform at least one turn - a skill in which the gymnast pirouettes on one foot at least 360 degrees around (a full turn). The more revolutions a gymnast does the more difficult it is, so double and triple turns are rated more highly than full turns. Gymnasts also can add to their difficulty score by performing turns with their free leg high in the air, or in a crouch position low to the beam.
Holds include scales and handstands. There are many fewer holds in beam routines today than in the past, simply because gymnasts don't have time to spare doing hold moves - they want to pack in as many skills as they can of high value, and these skills take up more time than others and are generally of lower value.
Acrobatic moves encompass a wide variety of skills, ranging from walkovers to handsprings and flips, performed forwards and backwards. High level gymnasts do acrobatic moves in combination, and some of the toughest combinations being done involve full-twisting back flips in the tucked or stretched position.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Officials have launched an annual Christmas tree recycling drive in southern Nevada.
Beginning Tuesday, trees are being accepted at more than 30 drop-off locations from Boulder City to Summerlin, and Southern Highlands to North Las Vegas.
Sites include many local parks and Lowes stores.
The program runs through Jan. 15.
The University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and the Springs Preserve host the annual effort, which started in 2001.
Sponsors say it collected more than 15,000 trees last year.
Program coordinator Tara Pike-Nordstrom at UNLV says trees are reduced to mulch for landscaping and dust control.
People are asked to remove anything that isn't natural from the tree, including lights, wire, tinsel, ornaments, nails and tree stands.
Collection locations are listed on the Springs Preserve website at http://www.springspreserve.org .

Donald Trump is not too happy with Ohio Gov. John Kasich.
Our Columbus bureau reporter Laura Bischoff reported earlier today that New Day for America, a pro-Kasich super-PAC is spending $6.5 million on ads in New Hampshire. The new ad bashed GOP frontrunners Donald Trump and Ben Carson.
The latest spot portrays Kasich as a tested leader with a plan to destroy the Islamic State.
"On the job training for president does not work," the narrator starts out as photos of President Obama and GOP front runners Donald Trump and Ben Carson flash up on the screen. "Benghazi, beheadings, Paris. Our lives depend on a commander in chief with experience, who understands the world."
Trump went off on Kasich on Twitter tonight.
Here are the tweets:
Kasich fired back with tweets of his own:

I wonder what the Sun Sentinel's obsession is with attorney Scott Rothstein's case? Let's face it, he's accused of doing bad things. But front page almost daily since the story broke?
In reading the Nov. 15 paper, not only was there an article on the front page of the main section, but also on the front page of the local section. I can only deduce that the Sun Sentinel either has a personal vendetta against attorney Rothstein, or that there is nothing newsworthy going on in the rest of the world.

Caleb Encarnacion '18, Kefiana Kabati '17, Johanna Merlos '16 and Clark visiting professor of education Raphael Rogers spoke at the 2nd annual Youth Summit on Race, Class and Education, at Clark University (April 9).
More than 100 high school students from across Massachusetts attended the second annual Hiatt Youth Summit on Race, Class and Education, organized by the Jacob Hiatt Center for Urban Education at Clark University, April 9.
Students from high schools in Amherst, Cambridge, Framingham, Springfield, and Worcester gathered in Tilton Hall for a daylong program focusing on how race and class shapes their educational experience and personal identity.
"You're here today because we value your voices, we value your attempt to do better in your schools," Clark visiting assistant professor of education Raphael Rogers said as he welcomed the participants.
"We have diversity in our schools. … I think beyond identity, a lot of students struggle with sort of figuring it all out," Rogers told a reporter from Charter TV3's "Worcester News Tonight."
Nastasia Lawton-Sticklor, research scientist at the Jacob Hiatt Center for Urban Education at Clark University, holds up a Youth Summit T-shirt. All of the student participants received a shirt.
Three Clark University undergraduates spoke to the gathering, sharing their personal experiences with regard to identity and overcoming societal and personal barriers in their journeys toward academic success.
"I always knew I wanted to go to colleges," said Caleb Encarnacion, a first-year at Clark and recent graduate of the University Park Campus School in Worcester. He recalled how people questioned his choice to apply to Ivy League colleges, based on assumptions about his background and abilities.
Encarnacion graduated with honors from UPCS. He encouraged the students at the Summit to seek out mentors, adding a shout-out of appreciation to his major mentor, Marianna Islam, who was a panelist later in the day. "Know who you are," Encarnacion said. "Let what other people say about you push you harder."
Kefiana Kabati '17 spoke about moving to the United States from Kenya and how, despite her already strong English skills and academic record in Africa, her school tried to push her into ESL courses and sought to block her desire to enroll in honors classes. With her mother's strong support, she was able to overcome the "hierarchy of classes" and educational "sorting mechanisms" she encountered, as well as doubters who assumed that she "wouldn't be able to keep up or catch on."
Students from Framingham High School hold up their Youth Summit T-shirts before the start of the day's events at Clark University (April 9).
Kabati admitted that she tried very hard to fit in, to be like everyone around her. "Throughout high school I was trying to erase who I was, and I was not being authentic. In college I realized how wrong that was. You don't have to silence yourself… Be OK with who you are."
The third Clark speaker was Johanna Merlos '16, who discussed her experiences living in Brooklyn and Queens. She said her ESL experiences made her feel excluded and "punished" as a younger child. "Coming to Clark was the first place where I've talked about race," she said, adding that she loves Worcester's diversity and that, eventually, many peers reached past the cultural and language barriers to become close friends. "Being bilingual is a beautiful thing, and I appreciate that every day. When we talk about identity, it's complicated."
"Throughout high school I was trying to erase who I was, and I was not being authentic. In college I realized how wrong that was. You don't have to silence yourself… Be OK with who you are."
The summit included interactive group activities, led by assistant professor of education Eric DeMeulenaere and joined by several teachers and staff from the Hiatt Center for Urban Education and accompanying educators from the visiting high schools.
An afternoon panel of professionals shared how their identities shaped their school experiences and professional and personal lives. The panelists were Whitney Battle-Baptiste, an associate professor in the Department of Anthropology at University of Massachusetts/Amherst and the Director of the W. E. B. Du Bois Center at UMass; Marianna Islam, founding member of Youth Empowerment & Activism and an activist involved in several coalitions working to increase Worcester's leadership capacity to address issues related to racial justice; and Macken Toussaint, an attorney at the law firm of Reimer and Braunstein in Boston.
Participating high schools included UPCS (Worcester), Claremont Academy (Worcester), Community Charter School of Cambridge, Framingham High School, Renaissance Expeditionary High School (Springfield), and Amherst Regional High School.
