Sage just announced the return of a global Sage X3 conference. The event, formerly known as Sage X3 Global Conference may also receive a new name as "Sage Enterprise Partner Summit".
Sage just announced the return of a global Sage X3 conference. The event, formerly known as Sage X3 Global Conference may also receive a new name as "Sage Enterprise Partner Summit".
Dreamforce 2017, Salesforce's 4-day customer and partner conference, begins November 6, 2017, in San Francisco, CA.
Can't make it live? Here's how you can watch some of the keynotes from your office.
Effective November 1, 2017, Patrick Falle has departed Avalara where he was Global Chief Evangelist and SVP Alliances.
His LinkedIn profile shows he was also a founding investor for Avalara and effective November 1, 2017, becomes Chief Revenue Office for YayPay.
YayPay is a predictive AR workflow service whose website says it integrates with any ERP, including Netsuite and Intacct.
The service helps the collection process by looking at open AR invoices and creating cash flow forecasts – all through integrations with existing ERP systems. The YayPay FAQ indicates payments from customers can be facilitated with their solution.
If I were to guess, YayPay might ultimately earn revenues through movement of money in two primary ways. The first being transaction fees from the collection of customer payments through automated collection notices and "click to pay".
The second could be through connecting companies with lenders based on the results of cash flow forecasts.
From a post on LinkedIn:
I'm honored to be officially joining a Techstars company YayPay as the Chief Revenue Officer starting November 1st.. YayPay solves a major customer issue…cashflow. YayPay has an advanced AR module that significantly expedites collections and lends complete transparency into the AR cycle directly from a customer's existing accounting system. It's an advanced AI based AR module designed so help businesses of all sizes remove themselves from the cumbersome and inaccurate task of using spreadsheets to manage their receivables. #fintech is a great market to be in, and YayPay has a great opportunity to own the AR space.
Avalara has been rumored to be preparing for an IPO which could value the company as high as $ 1 billion.
The events listing page for future Georgia World Congress Center (GWCC) events between November 2017 and June 2018 displays what might be the date for the next Sage Summit conference.
Sage Summit North America is the annual conference hosted by Sage for partners and customers. It features keynote addresses and educational sessions.
If accurate, the Sage Summit 2018 event would be approximately a month later than last year's event which was May 9-11, 2017 at the same venue.
I don't have many details but it looks like you can wave bye-bye to the "largest gathering of small and medium businesses in the world". The Sage Summit conference appears slated to be replaced by a series of local tour stops. The Sage Summit website now refers to the event as Sage Summit Tour and lists several local stops.
Update 11-2-2016: Sage has changed their Sage Summit site ( https://www.sage.com/sage-summit/ ) so it now displays information for their upcoming Paris event November 28-29, 2016 which may mean the site image I captured (above) was not yet ready to be fully deployed. The company has not yet released any official information on their Sage Summit Tour and consultants I spoke with were unaware of it.
Sage is presently displaying 9 stops on the Sage Summit Tour:
The Sage site indicates:
In 2017, Sage Summit evolves into the Sage Summit Tour, the world's most essential series of events for entrepreneurs and business builders. For businesses of all sizes, whether established for 20 minutes or 20 years, this is a must attend event for thought leadership, inspiration, and learning. Rich in relevant content, meaningful networking, expert mentoring and product knowledge, the Sage Summit Tour offers the most personalized, interactive, learning experience on earth. Business builders, build on!
The official Sage Summit conference site has just been updated to indicate a stop November 28-29, 2016 in Paris, France. The site has been slightly rebranded as "Sage Summit Tour" which seems to hint at a series of events which could either compliment (lead up to) or perhaps replace the company's annual flagship North America based Sage Summit Conference in 2017.
There has been no official information from Sage regarding their Sage Summit conference date(s) or location(s) for 2017.

Intuit hosted an investor day on September 21, 2016. They've just made the presentation slide deck available (download here) including this handy graphic above breaking out the installed base of their QuickBooks Online (aka QBO).
Converting the numbers to market percentages shows Intuit's reported market share of what they say is the total addressable market (TAM).
Sage's Marc Henderson, Marketplace and Partner Community Director, provides an early look at a few things Sage is working on for their yet to be unveiled new partner portal.
This portal is believed to be based on Salesforce Communities and according to this video seems as if it may replace some or all of the present MySageSell portal. In addition, there appears to be a plan for private and public discussion groups within the Sage Partner Community.
Unfortunately, there is not enough information in the video to know what product groups may initially use this new Partner Community. Sage at their recent Sage Summit 2016 conference indicated that North America would first begin to see a glimpse of the Global Partner Program in late 2017.
Perhaps the community will serve as an early look at what is to come with the new Global Partner Program.
Sage have announced that Paige Erickson, VP of Partner Strategy and Programs will depart Sage effective September 2, 2016.
Sage EVP Sales and Partner Programs Nancy Harris assumes the role of Interim Head of Partner Programs until a replacement is named.
Erickson arrived in October 2015 just after Rich Spring who joined as Chief Revenue Officer in April 2015. By all appearances, she was slated to work closely with Spring on revamping the revenue and channel fortunes of Sage North America. Spring lasted until January 2016 when he unexpectedly departed and subsequently reappeared at Seal Software as SVP Worldwide Field Operations.
In the interim Erickson seemed to have been left in somewhat of limbo. She had been active in the partner community and both she and Rich Spring seemed to have been well received by the channel. However Sage never positioned her front and center with the channel.
For some reason, Sage never positioned Paige Erickson front and center with the channel and her lack of prominent exposure at events led many to privately wonder whether her time at Sage might be limited.
This departure leaves some question about the structure of Sage Channel Management in light of the new Global Channel program outlined at Sage Summit 2017.
Full release follows

Intuit reported earnings August 23, 2016. Earnings were up 12% yet the guidance on future growth seemed to disappoint.
While these numbers top estimates, Intuit's tepid revenue guidance for the current quarter sent its shares trending downward after hours.
Intuit said it expects Q1 EPS ranging from a penny a share to 3 cents a share, which falls well below analyst estimates for 13 cents a share. Revenue is expected to range from $740 to $760 million, which would also miss estimates of $772.96 million. – ZDNET

Gary Gray's Straight Outta Compton (2015) red band movie trailer, movie poster star Alexandra Shipp, Paul Giamatti, Keith Stanfield, Aldis Hodge, and Orlando Brown. Straight Outta Compton's plot synopsis: "In the mid-1980s, the streets of Compton, California, were some of the most dangerous in the country. When five young men translated their experiences growing up into brutally honest music that rebelled against abusive authority, they gave an explosive voice to a silenced generation. Following the meteoric rise and fall of N.W.A., Straight Outta Compton tells the astonishing story of how these youngsters revolutionized music and pop culture forever the moment they told the world the truth about life in the hood and ignited a cultural war."

San Rafael, CA (PRWEB) January 14, 2014
Contact Football Camp Director and West Chester University's Head Coach, Bill Zwaan guided his team to being named ECAC Meadowlands Football Award Winner for Division II . It marks the fourth time in school history that the Golden Rams have won the award.
The Lambert Meadowlands Football Award each year is given to the top team in the East within each level of competition (Division I-FCS, Division II and Division III). West Chester last won the award in 2006. The Golden Rams were also winners in 1967 and 2004. This is the third time in head coach Bill Zwaan's 11-year tenure that West Chester has been presented with the Lambert Award.
West Chester completed its storybook season by reaching the NCAA Division II national semifinals and authoring an overall record of 13-2. Along the way, the Golden Rams won a share of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division title and captured the Super Region 1 championship with its 28-7 victory over Shepherd in the quarterfinal round of the NCAA II Playoffs. West Chester avenged its only regular-season loss to Bloomsburg with a victory over the Huskies in the second round of the playoffs. The Golden Rams fell to Lenoir-Rhyne in the national semifinals, ending its postseason run. West Chester's 13 victories set a new school record for wins in a single season, and the team either tied or broke 33 school records during the 2013 campaign.
Established in 1936 as the Lambert Trophy to recognize supremacy in Eastern college football, the award has since grown to recognize the best team in the East in the Bowl Subdivision. In 1957, the Lambert Cup was created to recognize non-Division I-A teams, and in 1966 a Division III award was added. In 1983, the Lambert family decided the Meadowlands Sports Complex would be the best organization with a sincere and involved interest in college athletics to sponsor and manage the award, and since that time, the awards have been known as the Lambert Meadowlands Awards.
To be eligible for the Lambert Meadowlands Award, a school must be located in the East or play at least half of its schedule against eligible Lambert teams. The territory includes New York, New Jersey, New England and Pennsylvania, while teams in the bordering states of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia and the District of Columbia qualify if at least half of their schedule features eligible teams. Teams in Eastern-based football conferences, regardless of location, qualify if at least half their schedule is against Lambert eligible teams.
"Contact Football Camps congratulates Coach Zwaan and his team" Mike de Surville Vice President of US Sports Camps stated. "It is of great honor to receive the Lambert Award and it solidifies the accomplishments of West Chester Football this season."
About US Sports Camps
US Sports Camps (USSC), headquartered in San Rafael, California, is America's largest sports camp network and the licensed operator of NIKE Sports Camps. The company has offered summer camps since 1975 with the same mission that defines it today: to shape a lifelong enjoyment of athletics through high quality sports education and skill enhancement.

Welcome to Halton Heroes
This year we once again reach out to our community residents, partners and supporters in all four corners of Halton Region as the Community Cares Committee of Halton will be hosting the 5th Annual Halton Heroes Gala on Friday, September 16, 2016. The members and civilian staff of the HRPS work diligently to make sure that we are safe in our community as we work, sleep and play without giving a second thought to our security. We know they will always be there for us and now it is time that we are there for them should a time of need present itself. Being named the Safest Regional Municipality in Canada is no small feat and does not come without strong leadership and serious commitment on the front line everyday!
As a community volunteer based committee we recognized the need for a trust fund to meet the short term financial needs of families of a police service member in the event of serious injury or sudden death. No one should have to endure the added stress of financial worry at these difficult times. We have been fortunate that the community has embraced our vision wholeheartedly and reinforced our commitment to this cause.
The Halton Regional Police Service has protected us with pride and honour and we ask that you now protect them and their families with your commitment and support of the Halton Heroes Gala. We invite you to join us on Friday, September 16, 2016 at the Burlington Convention Centre to demonstrate your appreciation for our men and women in blue, who along with their support staff put themselves on the front line daily to serve and protect ours.

SMITHVILLE, Miss. (WCBI) – The April 2011 tornados left a path of destruction in its wake. Smithville Baptist Church fell victim to the twister and now two years later, they are finally in a new church building.
For members of Smithville Baptist, April 27th, 2011 feels like yesterday.
"That day was pretty devastating. I saw God start right there. And then with my mother and father they both survived. So God was in control. And everyone just found each other and hugged each other," says Mitzi Summerford, a Smithville Baptist Church member.
The church briefly met in a tent before they were able to rent a place to hold Sunday services. The congregation didn't wait long to begin planning for a new church and raise funds for its construction.
"I thought there's too many bad folks, not any good ones and I found out through this experience that there's a lot of good people out there," says long-time church member, Bob Tidwell.
After Oklahoma recently had its own devstating tornado, members of Smithville Baptist went to pass on some of the generosity they had received.
"People have been so good to us in this community and they sent help from all over the country that we just felt like we had to help," says Tidwell.
Now that Smithville Baptist is finally settling into its new home, they are anticipating the growth the facility will allow.
"We just want people to come and be part of our family. And to know the awesome God we serve," says Summerford.
Members of Smithville Baptist traveled to Oklahoma to help with relief efforts.

Overview: A group of geeky 1980's rock star wannabes make a movie to remind everybody just how stupid the 80's were. They rent a house in Canada and are all killed by demons and sock puppets, ensuring the movie has a happy ending.
Directed By: John Fasano, 1987
The Case For: Hilarious "demons", the best angel vs. devil fighting scene in the history of mankind (and it sure beat "End of Days")
The Case Against: Lots of makeout scenes involving people with big hair, 1980's lingo and catchphrases everywhere, "The Tritons" (band's name) sound like an untalented version of Def Leppard if you can imagine that, movie takes place in Canada.
Forgot how painful the 1980's were? Maybe this will remind you.
Rock and roll! Rock on! Rock and roll foh-evvvvvah!
Okay, sorry, I just had to get that out of my system. When I was standing in the checkout line at Blockbuster Video, one hand clutching the last / only copy of "Rock n' Roll Nightmare" and the other tenderly caressing my genitalia, I couldn't help but feel the need to start rockin' out! The 80's, in case anybody out there doesn't remember, was a period of history where we should've stuck to engaging in cold war arms buildups instead of attempting to produce any public forms of entertainment. The music is embarrassing. The films are laughable. Take these two awful things, combine them into one, and now you've got... "Rock n' Roll Nightmare"! Rock on!
The film immediately starts off in high gear, as we get to see an old woman making breakfast. Hell yeah, rock and roll! Rock on! She calls her stupid kid and husband (who's shaving despite the fact that he has absolutely no facial hair) to come down and eat. However, before they have a chance to get down the stairs, she's pulled into either a closet or the refrigerator by something evil. The husband gets to the kitchen, can't find his wife, then starts screaming like a fool. He quickly remembers that he never looked in the oven for her, so he opens it up and is shocked to see... some kind of bloody skeleton thingy with eyeballs! It may have been either his wife or something she was cooking, the film never bothers to explain.
"Hello zombie, I'm an idiot! Pleased to meet you!"
Things go from bad to worse as once that scene ends, the movie cuts to a few hours of footage from a van driving down the road. There's some glam-hair-rock music in the background which you should get used to because the rest of the movie is just packed with it. The van eventually pulls into the farmhouse we saw in the first scene and a few hip, 1980s rock star wannabes exit to dish out the backstory / plot. I will present the information to you in the following easy-to-read form:
WHO: They're the "famous" rock band Triton, accompanied with their girlfriends who range from "1980's slut" to "woman with the face of Mac Tonight".
WHAT: Rock n' Roll, of course! Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
WHEN: Around 1985, the apex of humiliation for the human race.
WHERE: Toronto, Canada. Why are these hard core rock and rollers recording their smash hits inside a barn in Canada? Well, according to John Triton (and I am not making this quote up), "Toronto is where it's happening, man. The music, the entertainment, the arts..." This destroys and credibility I could ever conceivably put into this film, as I'm fairly sure the only thing Canada has to offer the rest of the world is plenty of land that can potentially be used for genetic testing labs.
WHY: According to their lead vocalist, "We have one month to create 10 minutes of new, good material." One month is not nearly enough time for this miracle to occur.
After an intensely stupid conversation between the manager and the groundskeeper, the band moves into their newly rented deathhouse. They engage in a "jam session" where they practice their newest songs and really earn the title of "Rock n' Roll Nightmare". The manager heads to the basement to find some new sticks for the drummer because his obviously aren't working correctly. He looks in a box and then kisses a daemon disguised as an 1980's slut who proceeds to bite through his shoulder. I guess he dies because then the scene ends and the band members don't bother looking for him anymore. I honestly can't blame them.
The rest of the band, obviously tired from rocking out all night, decides to go to sleep. They all have sex with their female counterparts in some of the most clumsy, unappealing, vile scenes ever. It's kind of odd; before I saw this film, women actually turned me on. The drummer, who's accent has changed from Australian to some kind of slummy British mutation, pumps his girlfriend with his drumming stick and then goes to the bathroom to look at himself in the mirror and make idiot remarks. A demon comes in and kills him. No big loss.
If you're feeling overwhelmed by dire climate change news, try taking action personally! You can make a difference in the world!
Urine? Or perhaps an abundance of crotch sweat? Either way, it's a good thing you're in a karate class. This is the ideal place to covertly get some airflow down there, speeding up the evaporation process by as much as 4%.
Nancy and the Banker are back!
Phridays return with a hot summer jam (from 1972)!

Panel Recommends Counseling For Sterilization Survivors
By Dave Reynolds, Inclusion Daily Express
April 25, 2003
RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA--The state of North Carolina should provide counseling and medical benefits for its residents who were forcibly sterilized during the last century, a panel decided Thursday.
But the Eugenics Study Committee, appointed in February by Governor Mike Easley, did not say whether they should be paid cash.
"There's no price tag for the damage that was done," said Stan Slawinski of the state Department of Health and Human Services. "How does one set parameters around that?"
North Carolina was the third state within the last year to formally apologize for sterilizing its citizens. It is the first to look at how to help those who are still alive to recover.
"The difficulty is we have nothing to measure against because no other state has done this," Slawinski said.
Another difficulty is the fact that the state does not know which subjects may have approved their own sterilizations and which did not. One option being considered would be for the state to advertise that it's looking for people who were forcibly sterilized. They could then request to see their own records and ask to appear before a special panel that would determine how the person should be compensated.
Still, such compensation may not gain popular support while the state is in a financial crisis.
More than 7,600 North Carolinians were sterilized between 1929 and 1974 under the state's eugenics law that was finally repealed just one week ago. Most of those who were operated upon had mental retardation or mental illness. By the end of the 1960s, more than 60 percent of those sterilized were black and 99 percent were female -- some as young as 10 years of age.
Eugenics was based on the racist belief that society would be improved by keeping "undesirables" from having children. Thirty-three states and two Canadian provinces legally sterilized an estimated 66,000 people. American eugenics lost popularity after the collapse of Nazi Germany in 1945. In North Carolina, however, almost four-fifths of the state's sterilizations took place after World War II.
The committee is expected to give its final recommendations next month.

text: The app I am currently creating requires that it always remain active in order for it to function properly. Unfortunatly the OS puts the phone to sleep after a few min of no input by the user, this causes some of the core services to stop communicating with my app untill the user wakes the iphone again. Is there anyway to either keep the core services communicating even after the phone goes to sleep, or to keep the phone from going to sleep altogether untill my app is quit? Thanks.

Feel like you are not "part of the conversation" surrounding Joomla lately? Well you are correct. The Joomla leadership team (all of them, CLT, PLT, and OSM) have somehow mashed together leaving the rest of us on the sidelines while they conduct their conversations mostly behind closed doors. Every now and then a snippet works its way loose and we get a little insight on how the wheels may be coming off the tracks. For instance on August 28, 2015, Jessica Dunbar wrote (empasis mine):
Hi can we freeze any new Joomla installs, subsites or subdomains. Our current websites are grossly under maintained. Out of 29 Joomla installs 7 soon to be 8 are running on the latest version. There is a small team of people who are actively trying to get sites up to date, clean up content, make sure the templates and branding are correct. But new sites are being built faster than we can maintain.
So here we are once again. Once again we are promised that the new organizational structure will fix all that is wrong with the Joomla! project. So, what is wrong? Apparently there are some communication and documentation issues between teams. Oh, Okay so what has OSM strong-armed the various teams to agree on? Well, it looks like software development teams will take a back seat to the non-technical people who will likely inhabit the board seats of OSM who will then "guide" the community on to bigger and better things. Wait, what? People like me who don't do software development will tell the developers what to do? Yup! Sounds just like big business doesn't it? Yup! Is that good? Nope!

D.C. at Low Risk Of Attack, Says Federal Agency
Friday, June 2, 2006
The Department of Homeland Security has ranked the District in a low-risk category of terrorist attack or catastrophe, putting it in the bottom 25 percent of U.S. states and territories, as part of a decision that will cost the city millions in anti-terror funds, according to city and federal officials.
The news came as irate officials from New York and Washington demanded explanations for why the department slashed funds in a separate urban anti-terrorism program by 40 percent for the metropolitan areas hit hardest by the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
"It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out these are two cities still at risk," said D.C. Police Chief Charles H. Ramsey.
Homeland Security officials said the District had far fewer potential targets than the larger jurisdictions, such as California, it competed against. They said the decisions came after an elaborate process aimed at fairly dividing anti-terror funds.
"From a risk perspective, even with all the things that the District of Columbia has versus a New York or a Florida or a California, it's a much different case," said Tracy A. Henke, assistant secretary for grants and training at DHS.
The department adopted new, risk-based procedures this year to divide $1.7 billion in 2006 anti-terror funding for states and cities. Officials announced Wednesday that under the biggest program -- involving urban areas -- the capital region's allocation of about $77 million last year would be cut to $46.5 million.
D.C. officials, stunned to lose so much money, then got another jolt: Under a smaller program, tailored for states, the District's grant shrank to $4.3 million, from $9.2 million last year. City officials had expected a reduction because funding for the entire program had been halved. But they were shocked by the department's rationale.
"They said relative to the other states, the District is not high risk," said Edward D. Reiskin, D.C. deputy mayor for public safety. "It was pretty surprising."
Ramsey expressed even more outrage, noting that the District received among the smallest allocations in the country.
"Are you going to tell me Rhode Island should get more money than the District of Columbia?" the chief sputtered in an interview on Washington Post Radio.
Although the District is home to the White House, the Capitol, FBI headquarters and many national monuments, it received a smaller state grant than Montana, Hawaii and Utah. Each of them received $4.5 million, as did Rhode Island.
Henke said the nation's capital ranked in the lowest 25 percent of states and territories in part because it competes with much larger jurisdictions, which have much higher numbers of "critical infrastructure" targets.

Ancestral Heights
I was christened 'Anatolia Teddy' and I am descended from many illustrious names, including 'CH Claybridge Revenge', 'Georgia Always On My Mind' and 'Hattella See Jad'. One of my aunties was 'Latour Miss Molly'. She was a silver pug and a terrible flirt.
I'm told 'Latour Miss Molly' had a way of fluttering her eyes that was most unseemly. She made a beeline for any man and I'm talking about the human variety. Her sister had no chance. She used to sit in her basket looking sulky, but that's no good when you want to get on in the world. That's what my mama told me.
"Get out there and wag your tail," Mama said. "With any luck a nice owner will take you on."
Mama Pug knew me for what I was. A high jumping pug with ambitions. I'm an instinctive animal and the day I was picked up by Mistress, who had nothing more than a cardboard box to carry me to her car, I knew that her need was greater than mine. It was her friend, Lesley, who ran out and bought my puppy food and it was Lesley who held me all the way to my new home. Well, the moment I walked through the front door, the smells nearly knocked me out. The paint, the dust, the canvases … I couldn't stop sniffing.
Mistress's bedroom is full of her own pictures and even one of herself looking a lot younger. She has a huge number of creams on her dressing table. My favourite perfume is her Chanel No. 5.
Outside, I scramble all over the patio. I've a penchant for little green apples off the tree and I like the scent of the roses. I should mention here that these smells are vital to me. I can sniff out photo-synthesis, you know. I can also tell the distance of the nearest earthworm.
I have strange premonitions. When a storm is on the horizon, I don't see the sky. My eyesight is terrible. But I can feel the earth trembling and half an hour before a storm begins, my nostrils quiver like mad.
Mistress walks me like any other dog on various routes through Kilburn. We've given up on the park off the high street. I was only four months old when an alsation tried to attack me. Mistress gave a scream and picked me up just in time. She then fell flat on her face in the grass.
"You effing toff..!' the alsation's owner snarled. "Don't you shout at my dog..!"
I wasn't too bad after the skirmish, but poor Mistress was in a terrible state. She had to have a large brandy when she got home. Then she went to bed. I lay on a cushion next to her.
"You look like a Belgian chocolate, that's the trouble," she said. "You're the right kind of after-dinner treat for many dogs. What are we going to do?"
With that comment, we both fell fast asleep.
And that is not the end of the story. Give a 'whoof' for the next instalment.

Blue Hands
Now where was I? (Scroll down for how we started). Let's look at her art consignment this evening. A load of oils brought in by a tall guy with a beard. He whisks my mistress in his arms and she starts to giggle. There's a lot of drinking in this house, so it is no surprise when a few minutes later, the wine comes out. Then the beer. I lie beside the kitchen table in the hope of a few crisps and after the two of them have had a couple of glasses, sure enough the crisps begin to fall.
I crackle away. I know this painter of old. His pictures stink. Mistress says that if he waited for them to dry off, he'd never get to town. And the colours! So bright, they make my eyes water.
As it is, we're snowed in. Mistress puts me out and I gallop through an icy river round our little garden. In front of me, I catch sight of the yellow eyes of a fox and her cub, who are curled up with an old sack on the patio. One thing I'm known for is my loud bark and I don't waste time barking now. They could be hungry for a dog.
Mistress opens the back door.
"Shut up," she hisses.
I could trip her up if I wanted, because she's very unsteady. She spills some of her wine, a bad habit of hers, and I have a quick lick. Pinot Grigio. Not bad at all.
The guy with the beard gets a towel and begins to dry me. Let me tell you now, we are not going to bond. I can smell the linseed oil on him.
It's a long night. The romance moves into the drawing room. They talk about his artistic aspirations, her Debt, the new controversy over who cut off Van Gogh's ear, etc. I go back into the kitchen for any remaining spillage.
Little do they know. The fox and her cub have crept up to the back door window. Their eyes are like amber traffic lights and they keep blinking. I am very unhappy. When I return to the drawing room to get my Mistress's attention, I find her slumped over the painter on the sofa. This is a bad situation becoming worse. There is no room for me.
I spend the night outside the main bedroom. This is when I wish my hearing wasn't so acute. My mistress pants more than me sometimes on a hot day. But I do manage to sleep. The next morning, I wake early and shake myself crazy. This is her sign to come and say hello. She doesn't. I give a woof out of sheer desperation. An hour later, my mistress staggers out and nearly falls over my basket.
The first thing I notice is her blue hands.

Welcome to my World
Everyone thinks I'm just a fawn coloured pug called Tommy and that I live with my mistress in a semi-detached house off Kilburn High Road. They think I behave like the majority of dogs around here, which is to sniff out trash of any kind and to mix as closely as possible with other mammals.
Well I reckon I'm not just a dog, but a pedigree with a difference. I have my own mind and a wealth of knowledge that stems from centuries ago. Who could have guessed that I belong to a breed existing in China since the time of Confucius? We had some status then. In fact, we were celebrated in grand fashion by Emperor Ling To in 190 AD. He was a wise ruler. He gave the bitches the same rank as his wife's.
Not that I'm married of course, though I am tied to my Mistress. This is a mixed blessing however you look at it. She runs an art gallery and lives in the shop, as it were. We both do. The two of us are surrounded by pictures and I couldn't count how many there are on the walls.
Occasionally, there is a sale, but I have to say more paintings come in than go out. Sometimes a whole lot of them arrive together and fill up the passage. My only compensation on these occasions is to go for the bubble wrap. It's amazing how long this stuff takes to chew. Last night I got through the wrap and began on a canvas, nibbling away for at least an hour. I had a slap from my mistress for that. She can't stand it when I'm belittling her Art, though what she sees in most of it, I really couldn't say.

More Sock Knitting
24 comments:
i love them!!! so so much! xoReplyDelete
I already made a pair like this. :) They make me smile when I wear them!ReplyDelete
Amazing! I want!ReplyDelete
You mentioned the length of the cable but do you mind telling me the size of needle tips you're using? I think size 4 US is the smallest size KP makes for interchangeables, right?Replies
I know right!? These rainbow socks are now going to haunt you until you get your hands on some self striping rainbow yarn, it's like some sort of rainbow curse.Delete
I am using 2.75 mm needles.
Avoid Second Sock Syndrome. Try knitting two at a time. Then they are exactly the same size. Use a single ball pulling from the center and the outside. Unless you want the stripes to match, then I would use two balls.ReplyDelete
That colorway is haunting me!! I need to order "Afternoon" now. That color just screams SHannon. In fact I may steal it off you....watch out.ReplyDelete
Your rainbow socks rock!
Thanks a LOT Jane. Really. :PReplyDeleteReplies

The elastic thread is just from Knit Picks!Delete
I havent really ventured into sock making yet, but these are pretty inspiring :)ReplyDelete
I'm currently obsessed with Opal's Hunderwasser line. I can't stop knitting plain socks.ReplyDelete

I am such a sucker for self-striping rainbow yarns!! If I ever finish my pair of rainbow Skews I want to knit a pair of plain stockinette in rainbows too!ReplyDelete

ROCCAT Kova [+] Gaming Mouse Review
In conclusion, I really liked this mouse. I will be using it over my favorite DeathAdder for a while and plan on it being my main mouse until I find something better. I truly enjoy it despite some features that usually would turn me away from it. I don't like the lengthy changes for settings in the "flashing" of the mouse and I hate the extra buttons for the left-handed user; and I will never use the mouse as a lefty, so don't bother me with the extra buttons. But even with both of these "problems" – I'm set on using this mouse. After the painful configuration to set it to the exact speed and sensitivity I want I'm now set. Any changes from here will be minimal so it won't kill me…
In reality the "length" flash settings to the mouse probably only consumes about 40-45 seconds of my time, but when you are really trying to nail down that last little adjustment it becomes frustrating when you can't really tell if this setting is better than the last setting you had it on. The extra wait in between to me was very frustrating, but for those of you with a bit of patience – it won't bother you as much. But considering that I can make some of the same changes in Windows at a faster and more instant pace, I become much more than impatient in waiting for settings to apply. Either way, like I said, this won't keep me from using the mouse. Now that I have my settings I'm a happy user.
The Kova[+] is a really nice mouse. If you have yet to find that mouse that will never leave your hand, this one is definitely one worth giving a try. Once you begin using it you likely won't want to change – even with the little things that bother me I still prefer it over my old mouse. It's great at tracking, it goes where you want it to go, and you have some pretty damn good control over how it moves with so many settings. Unfortunately, its price is a bit high considering some of the competing mice on the market. Especially when you consider the Razer Naga, which is only $70.00 on the market right now. It has 17 buttons with no need for a shift key to use them. The design is there, the marketing is pretty, but the cost is going to have to come down to make this one fit its value. The Kova[+] might not be a gold winner in my palm, but it's definitely a mouse worth putting in yours.
- Good cable length
- Nice body shape and fit for any size hand
- Can be used left handed or right handed
- Saved profiles for different users or different games
- Changing settings is very time consuming.
- Drivers are clunky and don't provide instant feedback
- Cost is a little high

The basic flow is Gmail Filter->Fetchmail->Postfix->Procmail->Perl->MySQL. I haven't made something that reads the data and makes a graph, which is why I'm still using the spreadsheet. For future reference (in case my hard drive crashes or something) here's the fetchmail rule:
:0:* ^Subject:.*testDB{:0 B c* ^db\/.*$| $HOME/myscripts/testdbinsert.pl $MATCH}# EOF
Here's testdbinsert.pl:
#!/usr/bin/perluse CGI;use DBI;my $host = 'localhost';my $db = 'datacollection';my $db_user = 'data';my $db_password = 'password';my $dbh;my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:$db:$host", "$db_user", "$db_password");for ($varnum = 0; $varnum < $#ARGV; $varnum=$varnum+2) {my $name = $ARGV[$varnum];my $value = $ARGV[$varnum+1];$sql = "insert into generic_data (data_name, data_value) values ('$name',$value);";$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql);$sth->execute();}exit(0);
Here's the fetchmail config file:
poll imap.gmail.comwith protocol IMAPuser "email@example.com" there is steve herepassword "password"folder 'testDB'with sslkeep
The Gmail filter applies the testDB label to any email from me, me at work, or Janet if the subject is test (or DB, or others, I tried a few things). Everything else was a standard install, I think. Here are some snippets from the output of "history":
1838 sudo apt-get install libctemplate0 libzip1 python-pysqlite2 mysql-client python-crypto python-paramiko1839 sudo dpkg -i /home/steve/Downloads/mysql-workbench-gpl-5.2.38-1ubu1004-i386.deb1840 sudo apt-get install mysql-server

1870 which sendmail1871 sudo apt-get install postfix1872 fetchmail -v > testfetch.txt
Lastly, here are some of the websites that I used as references:
http://www.ii.com/internet/robots/procmail/qs/ - Procmail quick start tutorial
http://support.verio.com/documents/view_article.cfm?doc_id=1212 - lots of procmail examples
http://www.syntheticzero.com/howto/vmail.php - has the procmail/MySQL chain
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/360121 - has the perl/MySQL example
I'll try to post more if/when I update it to make the chart and be a little more flexible.

Mobile Gadgets: Wireless Spy Camera Hunter Sees Live Video from Wireless Cameras
You feel that you are being watched. Oh, that is ridiculous because there is no one else around – right? No, no one is there but gosh the hair on the back of your neck keeps standing straight up. It is possible that a camera is watching you. Just because you do not see a camera does not been that it is not there.
A friend is in a long drawn-out custody battle. There have been private investigators, surveillance cameras in department stores and who knows what else. Could there be a wireless camera in the kids backpack? Even the neighbors are suspect.
Is there a way to know if a wireless camera is placed strategically to see what she does in her own home? Yes there is. Before I tell you what it is please remember that you could freak out an innocent camera owner if they found out that you were seeking out wireless cameras in the area.
The best way to detect a wireless camera is with a Wireless Spy Camera Hunter. Most video signals are found within a particular frequently range so as the Spy Camera Hunter locks onto a frequency (within 500 feet) the wireless camera is detected. If the camera is active the Spy Camera Hunter can display the actual video on its own 2.5" screen. If that weren't enough there is a video out port so that the video can be recorded onto a video camera or video recorder. Four AA batteries get you started.
Finding this gadget and realizing that any stranger could capture a wireless video is a bit discomforting. Whether the wireless camera is at my home or in my business it is not my intent to broadcast anything outside of the premises. This is a wake up call for me.

December 20, 2003
'Nuff said.
Went out last night and most of the early morning for my birthday with my girls (whoo, ghetto!) to kickoff the Amy Birthday Extravaganza Week. It will be interrupted momentarily by Christmas on Thursday, but then it's all about me again. 26 years old. I am slowly dealing with the fact that I will never appear on The Real World. Mourn with me, people.
Anyway, we went to Meze for a Turkish tapas, Felix, and finally Home. Felix had been invaded by some company holiday party (yeah, well, ours was at the Pooks Hill Marriott! That's cool too!) so the crowd was...eh, not so much the usual scene. Boooooring.
So off to Home in Chinatown. To recap the night: Dancing in stilettos (ow), getting people to buy me drinks (thank god it was my birthday 'cuz I forgot my ATM card at home and ran out of money after one tapa at Meze), fending off the men with our patented "hair flip signal of get-the-hell-over-here-and-get-me-away-from-this guy," and shanking my groove thang for all it was worth. (Outfit Verdict: Awesome. Lowrise pinstriped pants and a jagged neckline shirt from Guess, punked-out hair and Enzo stilettos that really look like Manolos.)
The high point--I got picked up by a prince! No, really! The prince of Dubai! I mean, he wouldn't have lied about that right? And he had a bodyguard/advisor/wingman and the whole Coming to America schtick DOWN! And who knew that the United Arab Emirates did the whole European kiss-kiss thing nowadays? It's classy!
WhatEVER. I kept calling him Eddie.
Anyway, in-laws are here for the day, which means presents! Let's see how I well I function on less than 4 hours sleep and really really sore feet.
Tomorrow: LOTR! The king returns! The battle continues! Frodo gets really, really dirty!

Championships change everything. When the Broncos won Super Bowl 50 in February, it gave Peyton Manning a window to walk away, his legacy secure. It catapulted Von Miller to a $114.5 million contract. It made Broncos general manager John Elway the envy of MVPs after their playing days are done.
And, it appears, the title took away one more motivation for coach Gary Kubiak to continue to grind away at an all-consuming job. Winning a Super Bowl makes you a champion, which perhaps made it easier for Kubiak to walk away as head coach, which he is expected to do. In a postgame news conference, Kubiak deflected questions about his future until Monday, but players said he told them he was resigning.
For the Broncos' two young quarterbacks — first-year starter Trevor Siemian and rookie Paxton Lynch — the Super Bowl set a demanding yardstick. In Denver, with the Broncos, there are either championships or not enough.
But in a season-ending 24-6 victory Sunday afternoon over playoff-bound Oakland, Kubiak punted on a looming quarterback battle, setting aside the future to win what is likely his final game as a head coach.
Kubiak let Siemian go the distance. Siemian threw for 206 yards and two touchdowns as Denver finished 9-7, a sixth consecutive winning season. The decision did not settle any debates. Questions about the future of their quarterbacks will only intensify for the next head coach.
Kubiak said last week, with reservations, that he would like to split time between Siemian and Lynch. Siemian deserved one more start, Kubiak said, but he said Lynch would get some seasoning.
"That's on me," Kubiak said afterward. "That decision is on me. I planned on playing both."
Instead, Lynch wasn't called upon, though the Broncos had a commanding lead most of the second half against a Raiders team down to their third-string quarterback. So, just as the Broncos swirled into uncertainty with news that Kubiak will likely resign, they finally solved some of their offensive problems that vexed them since November. A 1-4 stretch through Christmas knocked them from the playoffs, a span during which their running game disappeared and Siemian struggled to generate first downs, let alone points.
In the first half Sunday, the Broncos' ground game suddenly resurfaced. Rookie Devontae Booker ran in an 11-yard touchdown to cap an eight-play, 84-yard drive. It was Denver's first rushing touchdown on an opening drive this season.
And Justin Forsett, the veteran running back who was cut by two teams this season before signing with the Broncos in December, broke a 64-yard run up the middle early in the second quarter. It was Denver's longest run of the season. He gained more yards on that play than the Broncos did rushing in total last week at Kansas City (63). It led to a Brandon McManus 22-yard field goal and a Broncos' 10-0 lead.
A personal pick of Kubiak's in the seventh round out of Northwestern in 2015, Siemian was a third-stringer last season behind Manning and Brock Osweiler. Kubiak made him the starting quarterback this season for his steady presence during training camp and the exhibition season.
Against Oakland, Siemian was 12-for-17 for 150 yards and a 117.3 passer rating in just the first two quarters — his best first half this season. His 43-yard scoring pass to Booker led to a 17-0 lead at intermission. And in the second half, Siemian threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to tight end Virgil Green that gave Denver a 24-0 lead. The Broncos scored more touchdowns Sunday then they did in all of December.
But Siemian never secured the confidence of a team enough to propel him into next season. Last week, when the Broncos were eliminated from playoff contention in an inept loss to the Chiefs, Siemian threw for just 183 yards. Late in third quarter on Sunday, with a 24-6 lead, Siemian threw deep over the middle to Cody Latimer, into triple coverage. The pass was intercepted by Brynden Trawick.
Lynch, a first-round pick last spring, chosen by Elway, might still be the Broncos' future quarterback. But his time will wait.
With a coach likely on his way out and a quarterback battle likely moving forward, the Broncos are at a crossroads.

I recently upgraded to Lion only to find that Terminal.app (and iTerm2, which I actually use instead) have totally lost all colors. This means no syntax highlighting in Vim, no colored directory names or filenames, no nothing. I've tried playing around with the terminal-type option in the preferences (for both apps), changing it to
xterm, etc. but all to no avail.
However! When I SSH into a remote machine in Terminal.app, I get colors! Everything works as it once did. Although this isn't the same with iTerm2, where I'm still left colourless.
