The Corporate Finance Department provides its members with an opportunity to learn and train company valuation methods. These are not only useful for any future professional career in consulting or investment banking, but are also required in one of the major assignment of FEP's Master in Finance. Therefore, the work developed within the Department assists students in successfully completing their studies and gives them an edge when applying for jobs. Soft skills are also emphasised, in addition to technical skills: members will partake into regular discussions and presentations about their assignments and receive feedback on the quality of their work.
Equity research reports on previously agreed upon companies are published on a semi-annual basis. These equity reports detail the investment case made by the members of the Department, which depends on the current price of the company and its value as perceived by them, ensuing from a thorough analysis of the firm's operations and prospects. Valuations are based on the DCF method and supported by relative valuation methods. An Equity Challenge is hosted by the Club in the end of each year. The best reports are selected by a jury comprised of FEP Alumni with extensive professional experience in company valuation. The winner of the challenge is awarded a prize.
CFA Institute Research Challenge
FEP has been a regular participant of the CFA Research Challenge, promoted by the CFA Institute at a national level. Frequent participants include, in addition to FEP, institutions like Nova SBE, Católica-Lisbon, ISCTE and ISEG. Our team ranked 2nd out of 5 teams in the last edition and we're eager to claim the first place this year!
FEP's participation in the challenge is usually organized by the Corporate Finance department of the Club and therefore includes mostly club members, even though any FEP student can participate. If this is your case and you think you've got what it takes, let us know!

Pieces of a concrete hit two commuter trains on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning which caused NJ Transit officials to temporarily close down part of the Gladstone Branch for emergency repairs this evening.
Gladstone branch service remains temporarily suspended until further notice, due to emergency repair work on the wall near Summit station, NJ Transit officials said. Rail tickets and passes will be cross-honored by Lakeland buses. Commuters should listen to station announcements about alternate train service. http://www.nj.com/traffic/index.ssf/2017/09/nj_transit_suspends_gladstone_rail_service_after_c.html
In a report to the Federal Railroad Administration, NJ Transit officials said the incidents were caused by debris and concrete in a wall that had shifted in an area that has a one foot clearance between the wall and trains.
time wrote:Also, note the article says there is one foot of clearance, which is different from a wall shifting one foot. It's likely just another large piece of concrete that fell, which has been happening for the last decade.
litz wrote:A retaining wall that has shifted a foot is no longer a retaining wall. As in it's no longer retaining anything.
And if your clearance between rail and wall is one foot (and the wall has shifted a foot), basically you now have two choices :
1) remove and replace the wall, or 2) shore up the wall in some kind of permanent fashion (tieback rods, etc).
If the wall has cracked and/or deteriorated as part of the shift, then option 2 is no longer valid.
You (obviously) cannot run trains if they will hit the wall.
time wrote:Also, note the article says there is one foot of clearance, which is different from a wall shifting one foot. It's likely just another large piece of concrete that fell, which has been happening for the last decade.
andrewjw wrote:Again, the wall has not shifted a foot.
When NJ Transit consulted an outside engineer on Wednesday, however, it found more areas of loose concrete on the wall. That's when the agency decided to suspend service to Gladstone while crews removed the loose material.

Mon, Jul 14, 2014 • Past Show
Prager H2: Mark Isler fills in for Dennis and topics include; Obama is not dealing with illegal immigration properly. The system is broken because the laws are not being enforced properly. Immigrants who stay should share American values and strive for the American Dream. Brigitte Gabriel, journalist, author, and activist joins the show. She discusses how radical Islamist are a minority, but they still occupy a significant portion of Muslims and therefore a large portion of the global population. Mark and Bridgette take calls on the misrepresentation of Israel in the news and the public is not getting the right information.

Suppose we have encrypted a plaintext using transportation block cipher method. We have used three keys K1, K2 and K3 which are of 8, 16 and 8 bits respectively and having followed key pattern:
Key Patterns
Key Pattern 1 (K1)
1↦2, 2↦8, 3↦5, 4↦7, 5↦3, 6↦4, 7↦1, 8↦6
Key Pattern 2 (K2)
1↦3, 2↦10, 3↦8, 4↦12, 5↦7, 6↦13, 7↦2, 8↦16, 9↦15, 10↦11, 11↦5, 12↦14, 13↦1, 14↦6, 15↦9, 16↦4
Key Pattern 3 (K3)
1↦4, 2↦7, 3↦3, 4↦1, 5↦8, 6↦2, 7↦5, 8↦6
First, you should have encrypted their plain text using Key K1, then the result (obtained cipher text through K2 encryption) is encrypted again by Key K2 and at the end we have Encrypted the Ciphertext again using K3.

24 hour news plays the same damn stories 23 hours a day. He said, she said, blah blah blah.
Sure, you can volunteer. Stuff some envelopes. Make some calls. Help get out the vote.
How would you like to participate in something that isn't boring?
Well, you are in luck.
I just got off a call with some people who are working on one of THE most hilarious projects ever.

"Went in to purchase a used vehicle. vehicle had mounds of..."- stephaniebuchman13
Went in to purchase a used vehicle. vehicle had mounds of dog hair and a lot of stains through out. Looked like previous owners had just dropped it off and yet it has been there for 3 months. Sales rep (steve) did not give me the time of day or ask what I was looking for just opened the door to the car and stood there. Called in and talked to the owner...TONY LAWRENCE and he told me that my concern for the stains and dog hair was me being "picky". I mentioned that his customer service was lacking and he proceeded to tell me that he no longer wanted to do business with me because I was too "nit-picky" THIS DEALERSHIP DID NOT EVEN SIT DOWN WITH ME TO TALK NUMBERS OR TO SEE WHAT I WAS INTERESTED IN AND NEVER EVEN SAW MY TRADE---I WILL NEVER EVER DO BUSINESS WITH THIS DEALERSHIP AND DO NOT RECOMEND ANYONE EVEN GIVE THEM A THOUGHT!!!!!!!Read More

Soccer superstar Gareth Bale, an avid golfer and fan of the game, showed his support for the innovative SPRINT6GOLF in an Instagram post last week.
Bale, who plays for Real Madrid, partnered with SPRINT6GOLF to help popularize a shorter, more fast-paced form of the game where the player only plays six holes and has just 30 seconds per shot. His post read: "Proud to launch @sprint6golf, we've worked really hard on this project and hope you enjoy! #S6G! #GetReadyToPlay."
"The idea is to speed up golf and give people a viable alternative to the long form of the game," SPRINT6GOLF founder Tom Critchley said in an interview with BBC Sport. "The moment you put your bag down the clock starts and people get on with it."
Creating accessibility to the game through a shorter, faster-paced format appealed to the European tour so much it endorsed SPRINT6GOLF on social media.

Thanks, Katherine! This go round I think I'm going to stick all my in between size post partum clothes in a bin and label it, and store it in the basement. Until next time : )Delete
I can't believe you're 7 weeks pp, Mary! You look amazing. And that's a great point about choosing tops for cut vs. size- I think that's a post partum "trap" I've fallen into quite a bit.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you, Lisa!Delete

Few months ago, I bought the pattern "big girl briefs" by Serger Pepper, I made some with recycled fabrics. This pattern is really great to upcycle. When I saw that the Betties were looking for someone to make a review of the pattern, I raised my hand: "Mmmeeeeeeeee !!
Big girl brief pattern:
- 2 Waist height options: Regular or high (I made the high one).
- Sizes from 3 years to 14 years.
- Choice to put inserts at the front or not.
- No side seams, no elastics.
- Measurements in inches and centimeters.
- You can print the size you need only, which is really handy here because there is a lot of sizes and lines to choose from.
- Links for more informations very useful: Pressing knits and fabric elasticity guide among others.
Browsing the pattern, Irene (the designer) proposes to combine the panties with another of her pattern. I choose the "Everyday Tank/dress" also for 3-14 years. Both patterns are wonderful, I haven't made any changes. I folded the tank to take the picture to show panties, but I prefer the original length, girls grow up so fast!
I only have nice things to say about these two patterns, sizes corresponding to the chart provided. I made briefs in size 3 and tank in size 4.
My daughters loves them so much, Clara insisted to wear her tank over a long sleeve shirt to go outside (it's too cold to wear tank top here...).

A lot has changed since the creation of in-house memos, and the method you pick to communicate with could correlate with which generation you grew up in. According to this study, age differences play a part in which methods people choose to communicate through. These differences present a challenge to companies seeking to improve internal communication and employee collaboration in the office. Should they continue to embrace traditional employee communication because that's what everyone is used to? Or should they try something completely new and modern to stay current?
A growing number of millennials are entering the workplace and they are bringing with them a new perception of what office life should be like and how relationships should be structured. With the wave of millennials in the workplace comes new technology and different ways to internally communicate. Feeling lost? Here are 5 growing trends that you should know about the next generation of effective employee communication.
We're saying goodbye to cubicles and hello to open spaces! Teamwork and collaboration are now encouraged in offices through physical spaces as well as employee communication. Modern workers thrive in environments that allow them to express their ideas and be heard doing so. Thanks to the evolution of technology over the years, we've shifted from an individualistic culture to a collaborative culture because everyone now has the ability to contribute their ideas digitally – without the need to be cramped in a meeting room. Employee collaboration has been redefined in the digital workplace, and with that comes new forms of effective employee communication. Communicating as a team puts multiple heads together, which is much more effective than one. And now this can be easily done over an internet connection.
Once upon a time, employees did all their work at the office because that's where all the files were, phones connected by wires, and workers had to cram into meeting rooms. Technology has transformed the modern workplace so that now workers are able to communicate and access files from virtually anywhere and anytime they want. More and more people are checking emails on their phones rather than desktops, which makes it important to have everything optimized for the platform that people are communicating through.
Remote work is also becoming increasingly popular among millennials and modern workers as an option. There is really no need to be confined in an office space thanks to video and group calling software. Cloud-based solutions allow people to communicate simply by connecting to the internet, and they are able to access documents wherever they want, whenever they want. Meeting in person is still encouraged, but it's not mandatory anymore. Stats about remote work show that 82 percent of telecommuters reported lower stress levels when they were working remotely because they were in an environment that they were comfortable with.
The amount of resources that are becoming available to us is growing at such a rapid pace that it's easy to become disorganized. There's nothing more frustrating than looking for a needle in a haystack, and the same goes for looking for a particular file in a mountain of documents. Centralizing resources benefits not only all the members on your team, but has many communication benefits as well. When you gather all your resources in a centralized location, you will increase your worker's productivity and efficiency, and of course, get rid of the frustration.
A great way to store all your resources in a centralized location would be in a social intranet, of course! This space can be used by teams to communicate with each other and effectively collaborate on business data that's most important to them. This space is where people can find the answers they need so they won't have to ask for help all the time. In today's digital society, people expect instant answers – not ones that take several business days to answer. We are also independent humans who don't like asking for help all the time, which is where an FAQ or knowledge base would come in handy! Empower your employees, customers, and the people around you by providing them resources that will answer their questions for them.
Communicating with your company about a new product, update, or even onboarding a new employee is a very time-consuming task. It takes time out of a person's schedule to communicate what's new to a team of people who learn in different ways. To make these processes more effective, eLearning has emerged in this scene. eLearning has provided a space where users are able to complete courses to learn or understand something new. It's like going to school, but the content is accessible online and easily digestible! Employee communication in this case is done efficiently with little effort from other sources.
These trends are forecasted to be the way that communication will be done in the office in the future. The new millennial workplace is among us, so it's time to start thinking about how you can incorporate these trends into your internal communication efforts and you'll soon see some major differences.

I have an app consisting of 3 DB's which I distribute to users via email.
So long as the user deletes the existing DB from Handbase this works well.
I have recently updated the app to use forms and would like to distributed
form changes in the same way. If I email the form and open it
in Handbase then I get the message
"File received was a forms file: Sales_HDF. This forms file already existed and
was overwritten with this new version"
On the face of it this looks exactly what I would want to see but the form remains
unchanged on the iphone/ipad. Should this work? How can I update the user
iphone/ipad forms without directly sync'ing? (users are widely distributed geographically)
Thanks in advance

This lead me to wonder if I could really be in the right church if I didn't know what the other denominations taught. Would I need a degree in theology to determine the right denomination? Furthermore, where were denominations even in the Bible? No one talked about it much, and as an introvert I pondered these things in my heart without asking these questions. I would ask God about these things, with no answer (well, He began to slowly reveal an answer about 14 years later when an evangelical Catholic I worked with said, "Imagine what we could do against evil if we were united!)
The word "unity" never entered my ears as a young believer. Maybe I thought we were all united by the bond of our faith in Jesus. But this unity is not a true unity. One doesn't have to go through too many church splits (I've experience two church splits myself and one happened after I left a church and one happened to a church before we joined - that's 4 out of 5 Protestant churches we belonged to that I know had gone through a church split!) to figure out there ain't much unity going on within the body of Christ. This invisible "unity" was more of a common trait - the common trait of believing in Christ - than anything that bonded people together as one body.
So what does the Bible say about unity? In John 17:20-23 Jesus prays before his death that all believers would be one so that "the world may believe that you sent me". Jesus refers to his church as the kingdom of God and the kingdom of heaven many times through the Bible and in Matthew 12:25 Jesus warns that "Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand." Jesus' words express close unity.
Likewise, Paul insist on the unity of the church. In speaking to the Galatians he includes dissension and factions as sins of the flesh that will not inherit the kingdom of God (Gal. 5:20-21). In 1 Corinthians 1 Paul explains to the believers that they need to be unified. He asks the important question, "Is Christ divided?" In Ephesians 4 Paul emphasizes the importance of being one in unity and peace and warns the believers to not succumb to every wind of doctrine that will lead them astray.
Oh, so that's what the Bible says about unity. There is no Biblical evidence that denominations/divisions are the will of God. I want to be in the will of God. In order to be in God's will I have to give up my will. Even if that means going where I never thought I'd go.
This is a glimpse of what unity can be like. I say a glimpse because, while all Catholics share a visible unity, we have brothers and sisters in Christ who do not share this same unity. While this is awesome and exciting, it could be much, much more if ALL believers were united:

Who We Are
Summer Repertory Theatre Festival is a professional summer-stock company that produces a dynamic season of plays and musicals in repertory in the heart of the Sonoma County wine country. At Summer Rep, we magically transform ourselves and our theatres so that you have an extraordinary theatre experience over the course of our season.
Now in its 46th season, Summer Rep is renowned for offering advanced training for young theatre artists from around the country. We prepare students for careers onstage and behind the scenes on Broadway, with National tours and in film and television.
2018 season on Hiatus
As you know, our beloved Burbank Auditorium is currently receiving a complete remodel thanks to the generosity of Sonoma County voters – our friends and neighbors - who supported Measure H in 2014. The renovation is incredibly exciting, but has caused some logistical challenges for Summer Repertory Theatre.
We planned the 2018 season with care, but recently learned that the venue where we planned to produce the musicals was unavailable to us due to unforeseen construction. After scouring the county for a suitable alternative, we have been unable to find a theatre where we could produce the type of theatre that we are known for.
Because we were unable to secure a theatre for our musicals, the SRJC Administration concluded that the best course of action was to take a hiatus for summer 2018 and focus our energies on launching the new Burbank in our 2019 season.
We are so excited for 2019 and will be back and better than ever!
Make the next step in your theatre career be a season at Summer Rep.
Since 1972, Summer Rep Theatre Festival has enrolled over 8000 students as actors, technicians and musicians, who have received advanced training important to their professional goals. These students have gone on to employment with major schools, in the television and movie industry, and in theatres across the nation.
Generous scholarships are awarded to all Summer Rep Theatre Festival's interns, actors and apprentices, and housing is provided for all out of area participants.

I love the bedraggled look, combined with the noble crown still perched atop his head. The broken sword speaks of an ancestral grudge and it already tells a story before you've even got to the tabletop.

Admission to West House Nursery is open to both boys and girls with places allocated on 'first comers' basis and thereafter if there is a vacancy. The Nursery is heavily over-subscribed and early registration is recommended.
Moving from West House Pre-School to Reception for existing boys is usually automatic, but parents are required to complete a transfer form. Admission to Reception from within the School is not subject to academic ability. Otherwise, admission to West House School is subject to a place being available and depends upon a prospective pupil meeting the criteria required to maintain the educational and general standards for all pupils in line with the ethos, aims and expectations of the school.
While the school does not wish to exclude any prospective pupil on the grounds of disability, it is important that it is in a position to deliver an education and individual development in line with the general standards achieved by the pupil's potential peers. However, should the school be made aware of a disability in respect of a prospective pupil, it acknowledges its obligation to make reasonable adjustments so as not to put any disabled pupil at a substantial disadvantage to any other pupil. The School has a policy on Disability and Discrimination and a three year Accessibility Plan, which should be read in conjunction with this policy (copies are available upon request from the school office).
Prospective pupils for Reception to Year 6 are invited to attend a trial morning, where they join their potential form in timetabled lessons. In Years 1 and 2, satisfactory results in reading, spelling, writing and maths tests are also required. Pupils entering Years 3 to 6 undergo an assessment in Maths and English, in which satisfactory results, in line with national expectations, are required.
Where the school agrees to provide additional educational input, such as in the case of addressing aspects of dyslexia, there is no additional charge for the service.
The offer of a place at the school remains at the discretion of the Headmaster, after consultation with appropriate members of staff.
While the school does not actively seek to recruit from overseas, such enquiries are given due consideration based on the criteria above. The school is registered with the UK Border Agency and in making an offer of a place to a foreign national, follows the requirements of UKBA.
The school provides a small number of means tested bursaries which are subject to an annual review. Further details are available from the school bursar who can be contacted via the main office.
The full Admissions and Admissions Register Policy is available upon request from the school office.

Rafsanjani was a heavyweight behind Iran's nuclear program and pushed for nuclear weapons.
He was an influential power broker in the Islamic Republic who advised the country's supreme leader.
He was a central player in the Islamic Revolution and was alleged to be behind numerous terror attacks. He openly called for the killing of Americans and other Westerners.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani reportedly visited Rafsanjani in the hospital and a short time later the former president was dead, FOX reports.
Rafsanjani, who served as president from 1989 to 1997, was a leading politician who has often played kingmaker in the country's turbulent politics. He supported Rouhani.
Nicknamed "The Shark," Rafsanjani was also nefarious for purging political opponents and intellectuals.
Rafsanjani was the current head of the Expediency Council, a body that advises Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and in March he won a seat on a clerical body that will one day decide Khamenei's successor.
Rot in hell bastard.
God Bless.

I am blonde.
I relate myself to Elle Woods because she has blonde social moments but is motivated and smart. This is me (or so I tell myself, plus we have the same name spelled the same way!)
My family and friends often make fun of me for the silly things I say with complete seriousness. They call them Elleisms.
This is an example of an Elleism...slippers on the wrong feet and not noticing until I tripped.
Some other popular Elleisms are:
"I am 4 ft and 12 inches tall"
"I will take a road trip to Hawaii by crossing the Panama Canal"
"I grabbed a chicken and crossed the road"
I SWEAR I am intelligent... I just don't think sometimes... well often.
1) Do you have any Elleisms??

Saturday evening, the close of a slow day during which I didn't bother to put on pants.
Which is a lot like most days, unfortunately.
I'm playing old school Xbox. Djoser – who's clearly at least as bored as I am – has decided to attack my feet from his base under the ottoman. Fortunately I'm wearing socks. Fun fact about me: I HATE being barefoot.
Then I remember, "Hey, I bought these guys a new cat toy yesterday!"
Σ has been after me for some time to get more exciting cat toys for the Pyramid Brothers. When she's not torn between watching Nickelodeon or TLC, she often tunes into a little show called My Cat From Hell over on Animal Planet. Every episode is pretty much the same: the curiously-named Jackson Galaxy – a self-described "cat listener" – visits a befuddled a southern California household or two in hopes of taming the out of control kitty cat which has utterly taken over. The cats portrayed are much, much worse than Djoser or Sneferu could ever hope to be.
Something like this, yes.
Image credit: JohnCrider
In his work Galaxy often uses a cat toy which resembles a small fishing pole with a feather tied to the end. Σ has been after me to get one of these for my cats for some time, as she considers the numerous cat toys I have to be "boring." When I say numerous, I mean it. The cats got more Christmas presents than I did last year.
'Tis but a small sample.
Well, fine. A couple days ago I was at my friendly neighborhood Fred Meyer and came across the aforementioned "Feather Dangler." In the finest American tradition of impulse shopping, I picked one up. At the very least, now Σ will have something to do with the cats when she stays over. This is a good thing given that Sneferu is apparently too old to play dress-up now. Much to his great relief, I might add.
Much to my relief, both cats actually like the thing.
Note to self: get a digital camera which doesn't require Daguerreotype-era exposure times.
As for me, I was over it after a few minutes. We'll play with it again tomorrow. Maybe. I'm going back to the Xbox. The cats found a paper bag. All is well at the Command Center.

Getting at the real truth about IPv6
"The content side is the easy side of the problem. The harder question is: How soon will you have a massive amount of IPv6 clients who need to get to you?" Malan said. "Think about the Linksys modem in your house. There are oodles of crusty old stuff out there that needs to get upgraded. That problem is hard and expensive."
Experts agree that CIOs need to tread carefully where IPv6 is concerned. For now, they only need to worry about IPv6-enabling their public-facing Web sites and Web services. They don't need to worry about upgrading anything behind the firewall on their private corporate networks.
The drop dead deadline for IPv6
When do a company's public-facing Web sites and services need to be IPv6-enabled in order to prevent them from being unreachable to Internet users with IPv6 addresses? Nobody knows for sure when a significant number of IPv6-only users will emerge, but experts say this upgrade needs to be done within the next 18 months.
John Curran, president of the American Registry for Internet Numbers, which doles out IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to network operators in North America, has said the drop dead deadline for U.S. enterprises to support IPv6 on their Web sites is Jan. 1, 2012.
"It needs to be a priority by the end of the year," Hankins agrees. "That coincides with ARIN running out of IPv4 space by the end of the year or early next year, and it also coincides with LTE deployment. LTE is one of the major drivers for IPv6 because they are expected from the beginning to use native IPv6 support in terms of having users access online processes."
The U.S. federal government has established Sept. 30, 2012 as its deadline for all public-facing government Web sites to support IPv6. Federal agencies have a second deadline of Sept. 30, 2014 to upgrade internal client applications that communicate with public Internet servers to use native IPv6.
Alain Durand, director of software engineering at Juniper, says CIOs have at most 18 months to get their Web content ready for IPv6-only customers. Juniper offers a special purpose Web site for IPv6 users - ipv6.juniper.net — today, and it supported IPv6 on its main Web site, www.juniper.net, for World IPv6 Day using its own routers and carrier-grade NAT gear that it calls translator-in-the-cloud.
"Starting to introduce IPv6 and starting to turn it on now would be a reasonable thing to do," Durand says, pointing out that most broadband providers will support both IPv4 and IPv6 for awhile into the future. "In the beginning, IPv6 may go through some sort of NAT, then IPv6 may go native and IPv4 will go through some sort of NAT. The question for CIOs is: When can they offer a better service to their users by offering content natively over IPv6?...There comes a point at which offering content over IPv6 offers a better user experience to customers and offers you as a network manager more flexibility."
Durand says he doesn't know when CIOs will experience traffic management issues on their networks that will encourage them to switch from NAT devices to native IPv6. One worry is that it will be harder for network operators to filter out denial-of-service (DoS) attacks when NAT devices are used to share IPv4 addresses among multiple subscribers. That's the kind of network management issue that will likely prompt network operators to deploy native IPv6 service.
"If you're using IPv6 natively or translator-in-the-cloud, you have access to the originating IP source and you can filter out the DoS attack on this IPv6 address and only remove the bad guy without impacting the other 99 or 999 users," Durand says.
The cheapest, easiest route to IPv6
Experts say CIOs only need to upgrade their public-facing Web sites and services to support IPv6 in the near-term. How long that will take and how much it will cost depends on the size and complexity of a company's Web presence.
Major content providers like Google and Yahoo are upgrading their entire Web server infrastructures to support IPv6, including Web servers, database servers, storage, caching and all the software that's used on these systems. Yahoo has been working on IPv6-enabling its infrastructure since 2008 and has said this is the second-largest engineering effort for its IT department, behind ongoing tech refresh efforts.

When Michelle Peacock started bleeding when she was 11 years old, her mother Julie thought it was a sign her daughter had started her period.
"I remember her shouting, 'Mum, come quick, I'm bleeding' so I dashed into the bathroom," 44-year-old Julie McClelland, from Belfast in Ireland, told The Sun.
"It's a rite of passage for every mum and daughter."
Michelle was due to go on holidays with her father Mark Peacock - who was separated from her mother - so Julie called him and told him the news.
"I knew he'd look after her – he doted on his little girl," Julie said.
But a few weeks later, Michelle was still bleeding, and when Julie saw the blood clots in her daughter's underwear, she knew something was wrong.
Michelle started medication to ease her bleeding, but when things still hadn't settled six months later, her parents took her to hospital.
It was there they were given the shock news that their daughter had clear cell carcinoma of the cervix.
Specialists at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast said they'd never seen the aggressive form of cervical cancer in a patient so young.
Immediately, Julie banned doctors from saying the 'c-word' around her young daughter, and over the next six years, Michelle underwent three rounds of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and a full hysterectomy.
Michelle's long brown hair fell out due to the treatment, so her parents bought her a blonde wig so she could still feel like a "girly girl".
"No matter how terrible she felt, her nails and face were immaculate," Julie said of her daughter, who "loved playing dress-ups".
Michelle's parents kept her illness a secret from her friends, with only close family knowing what she was going through.
Soon, Michelle was so sick, her mother quit work to care for her full time, and her father moved back in to the house to help.
Just after her 16th birthday, the family was told the cancer had spread to Michelle's right lung, liver and pelvis. Doctors said there was nothing more they could do.
LISTEN: Julia Watson talks about her life and what it is like to be told when you will die.
Just three days after her 17th birthday, in February 2013, Michelle passed away.
"My Michelle was so brave," mum Julie said.
"Her motto was 'live laugh love' and she made the most of every minute. Last month she would have celebrated her 21st birthday. Instead I took pink flowers to her grave."
During her years of treatment, Michelle kept a diary about her cancer journey. It's now been published as a book called Time To Take My Life Back, and is being sold to raise money for charities that supported her through her illness.
"She's gone but she'll never be forgotten," her mother said.
"She'll always live on in our hearts."

Ah, Yoda Stories... I wasted many hours of my childhood playing that....
I'm currently trying to figure out an early PSX golf game called "Tecmo World Cup Golf". It's one of the most bizarre golf games I've ever played, and I can't make heads or tails of certain aspects of it, and I have the booklet and everything. It's more of a golf sim than a game, and there are design decisions that are completely baffling. It's unlike any golf game I've ever played, tho, and it's intriguing in that sense. There's a power meter that you have to time like any other golf game, but this one behaves very oddly, and sometimes it seems to require an extra button push for no discernible reason.
I am utterly baffled by it, and I can't get a score lower than 7 or 8 strokes on any hole I've played thus far. Another baffling thing is that there appears to actually be 101 different courses in the game as advertised. I was sort of expecting it to do mirrored versions of courses and stuff, but the list seems to be actual courses. Japanese courses, tho. Several of them only have 9 holes, tho. Still, you're looking at well over 1000 holes, and probably over 1500.
It's honestly unplayable and frustrating as fuck, but there's something addicting about it, and I keep playing the same holes over and over trying to figure out what the hell is going on with the interface and the swing mechanics. It results of two similar swings seems to vary so much as to just be random. There must be some logic behind it that is eluding me. There are only a couple of videos on youtube of the game, and neither of them are of actual people playing it. It's just some demo stuff that happens if you don't push a button on the main menu for a while.
Very odd early PSX game.
Also been playing Aquanaut's Holiday again recently.

Bump for funsies.
Recently finished my first run through Bloodborne, which is in my top five games of all time now. It's hard as shit and genuinely unnerving, but once you get over the initial difficulty hump it's also incredibly fun and rewarding. And the atmosphere/worldbuilding is unparalleled. It may be the most successful example of an attempt at a Lovecraftian story in a visual medium ever.
*makes note to find trailer*
Basically, you're an outsider who's come to the city of Yharnam to find a cure for an unknown illness. Unfortunately, you've had the bad luck to arrive on the night of a hunt. Yharnam is victim to a unique bloodborne disease which regularly drives its inhabitants mad, transforming them into horrific beasts. With no other choice, you must take up the mantle of a hunter and purge these foul streets, fighting through a multitude of horrors in order to find a mysterious substance known only as Paleblood—a substance that could be the key to curing you. As the night goes on, the beasts grow more formidable and your surroundings grow ever stranger, and you come to realize that the city's inhabitants might not be the only enemies you face...
In terms of gameplay, it's very similar to the Dark Souls games, which are by the same developer, although its combat is much more aggressive and quick than that series'. Upgrading your character/weapons works very similarly to D&D. You have two types of weapons, right-hand and left-hand; right-hand are various types of melee weapons (spears, swords, saws, axes, etc.) while left-hand are firearms (blunderbuss, pistol, etc.). Your right-hand weapons are "trick" weapons that can transform from one state to another, resulting in such exotic arms as the Rifle Spear, Whirligig Saw, and Boom Hammer, to name but a few. Various other items are also available to pick up and use.
There's a very steep learning curve early on, and it's the type of game that you'll probably end up Googling answers to as there are a variety of steps forward that aren't spelled out and rely on either intense knowledge of the world of Yharnam or blind luck for the player to stumble upon. But once you can clear the initial difficulty hump, it becomes intensely rewarding. I've poured dozens of hours into the thing.
It's also a sort of best-of-both-worlds when it comes to open-world vs. a linear playthrough. The world of Yharnam is vast, but you can choose a fairly linear path through it if you so choose; the side quests also aren't overlong or convoluted. As someone who usually requires a fair degree of linearity in his games—I can't do The Witcher 3 because of how sprawling and open it is—I found Bloodborne to be a fantastic compromise between the two extremes.

I'm not much of a gamer. Every once in a while I come across a mobile game that occupies a chunk of my free time for a month or two. These days, that game is Cribbage With Grandpas.
My grandfather loved cribbage. He died when I was just 7, but I ended up playing a lot with my grandmother over the years. This game is cute, simple, and well done. I like how it makes you count your own points, and it doesn't warn you if you missed something (well, they might on the easier settings, I haven't tried). And all the crappy hands I get frustrate me to no end
"Fifteen two, and the rest won't do."
"Fifteen four, and the rest don't score."
"Fifteen six, and the rest don't mix."
Details like that bring me back. I had no idea that this was mainstream cribbage lingo, haha.
I've every now and then I pull out Ocarina Of Time and continue my playthrough when I was a kid I got about halfway into the game and at some point gave up. A couple of years ago I started it again and can't say I've been in any hurry but last week I beat the water temple!
Meanwhile I, a gamer, had a friend over a couple weeks ago and we played Halo 3 ODST start to finish, wrapping at 5:30AM.
Prax, not sure what I was expecting, but that first trailer was a lot cooler than it.
Quick tip to anyone who picks it up—always play Online Mode. It lets you summon other players to help out, but more importantly it lets you see all the notes and clues people have made, which can be CRUCIAL for avoiding certain blunders or finding certain rewards.
I hate Bloodborne and all the Souls' games with a passion.
I mean, sure, they're not bad games per se, and I like a challenge, I just can't stand a game that will repeatedly kill me within the first 10 minutes of my first playthrough.
I'm a big dumb asshole because I only promise ten minutes to a movie and one episode to a TV show, but, even to me, it seems a little extreme to give up on a shooter game after ten minutes of dying.
Of course, I myself don't even play games, and may not last ten minutes with a game that isn't hideously frustrating, so... I should really just shut the fuck up, because this topic is academic for me and personal for everyone else. But there does seem to be a distinction between my movie thing and your game thing: movies don't require iterative involvement from the audience – watching a movie has nothing in common with 'developing a skill' – but games do. Isn't giving up on a game after ten minutes similar to giving up on learning to juggle in ten minutes? Can someone check my math on this?
(Disclaimer: To be clear, 'I'm not blindly sticking with something I already don't enjoy' is an excuse which becomes valid immediately after diving into anything, in my opinion. Hell, I advise people to immediately drop books the instant they lose interest in them, because there's a longer-than-your-life amount of writing that you'd love, and every second you spend forcing yourself to stick with something you've lost interest in represents a very-real loss of time and enthusiasm for something you would like.)
(So yeah, like I said: this is just an academic distinction for me. Just makin' chit-chat.)
The only reason I enjoyed playing Dark Souls 3 last year was that I was doing so on stream to raise money for St. Jude and people got to commiserate (and offer advice). I hit a dead end about five or seven hours in and just stopped, and I'm happy to never return to it. I don't mind difficulty but it was just too much for me personally.
Teague, I think it's the difference between picking up a book you think you might enjoy and getting halfway through and discovering you don't, and picking up a book you know you're going to have to work at to get through, but you're someone who enjoys that process of reading a really really hard book. Generally you can figure out whether you're reading Harry Potter or House of Leaves within the first page or two.
Same for games most of the time, some people just want to have that experience of playing the game with a bit of difficulty but mostly it's for the story and the experience of playing it. Other games like Dark Souls etc, are specifically designed to murder the fuck out of you, and be about being micro second accurate with your controls and combos and strategy. Some people like that sort of challenge, others don't. generally you can figure out what kind of game you're playing in the first couple minutes.
Yeah, I enjoy hard games, but the Souls' games are literally designed to be insanely hard.
Like, say a game like Monkey Island, where I would get stuck is just fine. I'd spend hours figuring out the next bit, whilst enjoying the game, and then later solve the puzzle and jump for joy.
Same with RPG's. If you're stuck on a boss, simply go back, and grind for a bit. Power up your characters, build up a new strategy and whatnot.
Driving games? Tune your engine(if possible), and nail that corner next time.
Souls? You're literally dead 5-10 times within the first 5-10 minutes of the game, which for me, is simply not fun. I have no desire to get better at it, because I know if I make it through the first 10 minutes, the next 10 minutes are even harder.

Historic Venice
In the early 21st century Venice had a population of more than 275,000. Its area is roughly 120 square miles (310 square kilometers). The central core accounts for only 2 percent of the area, and most of the city's inhabitants live on the mainland.
The historic core of the city has lost a large share of its population because of the difficulties of living in old, decaying buildings and dealing with the frequent flooding. The…
