I have lived in Australia my whole life, I started drawing at the age of 5. From there I turned it into my hobby and by the time I hit college I learned how to use my art digitally using Photoshop.
I have always been greatly inspired by many things, from games to movies and even TV series. If I like something I draw it. Most people call me a fan artist, but I like to think of it as giving me a reason to draw something so I can improve myself for better things. I love what I do, I always have. Without my fans I am nothing, so thank you to everyone who enjoys my work.

|Dania Hall, Livermore, California
One of the gathering places for the close network of Danish immigrants was Dania Hall in Livermore. It was built by volunteers in 1911 and still stands on 2nd Street, between N and O Streets.
Over the years, the Dania Hall has been the Danish cultural center of Livermore and, as a child, I remember spending time there. It was a great place to hold wedding receptions as well as different events from concerts to haunted houses during Halloween. It continues to serve as a rich part of Livermore's history.
Below is a story my Aunt Rae gave me about Dania Hall and it's colorful history. I don't know the name of the publication, but I figure that it was printed in around 1971 because it mentions that my great grand aunt, Maren Christensen Madsen, was 99 years old at time of printing, and she died in 1972. I've transcribed the text below so you can enjoy the history of this great hall and the Danish society that built it!
I love seeing my Great Grandpa Louie mentioned in this article, as well as so many of the other names that peppered our family's conversations while I was growing up: Madsen, Christensen, Rasmussen, Thomsen and Groth, to name a few. I grew up with the grandkids of Mr. and Mrs. Sigurd Thomsen and remember the fun we had at Dania Hall!
Centennial Corner
Dania Part of Early Livermore Society
Dania Society was born December 11, 1879, when a group of friends met at a home in Oakland. It was then called "The Danish Social Club of Oakland and Alameda." After many highly successful social ventures, it was decided that the club was not to be merely a social club, but a beneficiary and benevolent society. Lodge No. Two opened in San Francisco in 1882, and by 1902, the year of the first convention in Livermore, there were 18 lodges in existence.
Livermore's Dannevang No. 7 was organized July 23, 1892, with 34 members who elected Andrew Simonsen as the first president. Numbered among the charter members were Louis Nielsen, Jes H. Ludvig, Jorgen Peter Olsen, Hans T. Madsen, Chris R. Madsen, William Larsen, Erick Henriksen, Chris H. Groth, M. G. Clausen, P. A. Christensen, Hans Grodt, Hans Mathiesen, Mads J. Moller, and Christian Lilienthal. The Dania banner was made by the Livermore Danish ladies and presented to the men's lodge on February 17, 1894, by Mrs. Maren Madsen, now 99 years and still a resident of Livermore. Mrs. Madsen recalls the occasion as "the proudest time of my life – a night I will always remember."
Livemore's first Dania Convention, held in 1902, was a gala event, with red and white bunting in the colors of the order decorating the lawn. First Grand President from the Dannevang Lodge was the late Carl Holm who was elected in 1903. Also serving as Grand Presidents were two other Livermore members, Iver Frydendal in 1934 and Conrad Moldt in 1961. Conventions were held in Livermore in 1921 and 1961.
Current 50-year or longer members are John Block, Erik Eriksen, Sam Hauberg, Mads Madsen, Peter Rasmussen, Chris Reuss, Peter Reuss, Chris Svanberg, Louis Thomsen, Louis Banke, Louis H. Madsen and Alfred Petersen. Current membership is 90.
The Dania Hall, as it stands now, was constructed by volunteer labor in 1911. Prior to the construction of the hall, the members met in a building located where the present City Hall now stands.
Danebod No. 16, the Livemore ladies' organization, was formed October 19, 1905, with Laura Hansen as the first president. There were 73 members then and the group received its charter on July 17, 1920. It will be celebrating its fiftieth anniversary next summer. The lodge was named Danebod by the late Mrs. Peter Rasmussen of Dublin. Among the charter members were Mrs. Maren Madsen, Julius Jensen, Mrs. Mika Madsen, Iver and Johanne Frydendal, Mrs. Marie Groth, Soren Hauber, Mrs. Mabel Rees, Mrs. Marguerite Andersen and Mrs. Mary Jensen.
Danebod has two Past Grand Presidents numbered among its members, the late Mrs. Johanne Frydendal who served in 1931 and Mrs. Maren Moldt who served in 1961. Mrs. Victor Hansen, nee Elva Banke, will be the Grand Marshal at the conclusion of the current convention. President of Danebod is Mrs. Rita Post. Delegates attending the convention are Mrs. Kristine Clausen, Mrs. Ada Borch, Mrs. Mette Andersen and Mrs. Ruth Nielsen with Mrs. Lee Austin and Mrs. Sigurd Thomsen as alternates. Attending as representatives of the Dannevang Lodge are Mel Nielsen, Jorgen Clausen, Peter Knudsen and alternates Chris Simonsen, Norman Larsen and Iver Rasmussen. Mr. and Mrs. Conrad Moldt are representatives to the Old Age Fund Meeting.
Mostly, I admire these Danish immigrants to who came to America to find a new life, but never forgot their roots.

Washington D.C., Dec 7, 2013 / 06:02 am ().- The Obama administration is being accused of violating federal law by directing members of Congress and congressional staff to over 100 health insurance plans that pay for elective abortions.
Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.) said the abortion-providing health care plans show that President Obama's 2010 health care legislation is an "abortion mandate" that "violates federal law and makes taxpayers complicit in the culture of death."
"This is not reform," he said Dec.4.
Smith is the author of a 1983 amendment that bars abortion funding from the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program. The amendment also bars the Office of Personnel Management from funding or engaging in administrative activities in connection with any health plan that includes abortion, Smith's office said.
However, the congressman charged that that elective abortion coverage is included in 103 of the 112 insurance plans in the Washington, D.C. insurance exchanges that members of Congress and congressional staff are being advised to use under the Affordable Care Act.
"Only nine plans offered exclude elective abortion," he said, adding that this information became available only in response to public pressure.
The deadline for eligible federal employees to sign up for the employer-sponsored plans is Dec. 9.
Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List, said the abortion-providing health plans are "clearly breaking longstanding federal law" and show how the legislation "expands taxpayer funding of abortion."
She said the health plans call into question the agreement then-Rep. Bart Stupak, a Michigan Democrat, and other pro-life Democrats made with President Obama. The elected officials agreed to vote for the Affordable Care Act in exchange for an executive order intended to apply federal abortion funding restrictions to the health insurance exchanges.
"Obamacare was forced through only after pro-life Democrats naively accepted a promise and an executive order from the White House that taxpayer dollars would not be used to fund elective abortion," she said Dec. 4. "Promises as well as laws have now been broken."
Rep. Smith pointed to the executive order as well as President Obama's statement that "no federal dollars will be used to fund abortion." He said the new revelations mean the president's promises "ring hollow."
"Abortion isn't health care – it kills babies and harms women," he stressed. "We live in an age of ultrasound imaging – the ultimate window to the womb and the child who resides there. We are in the midst of a fetal health care revolution, an explosion of benign interventions designed to diagnose, treat and cure the youngest patients."
Smith also charged that HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has failed to provide "any" information about abortion coverage in the federal health plans sold in dozens of U.S. states. He is currently sponsoring legislation to require disclosure of abortion coverage in a health care plan on the federal insurance exchanges and to require that any abortion surcharge be "prominently displayed."
The Charlotte Lozier Institute, an education and research affiliate of the Susan B. Anthony List, has released a study that says federal premium tax credits and Medicaid expansion in the health care legislation could heavily subsidize as many as 111,500 additional abortions each year.

New AGcelerate program provides CANR freshmen with support
Last fall, University of Delaware faculty members Erin Brannick and Tanya Gressley welcomed the inaugural 30-member class to the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (CANR) AGcelerate Program. Funded through the President's Diversity Initiative, the AGcelerate program is designed to foster a sense of community, to prepare students for academic success by giving them peer and faculty mentors, and to help them make important contacts in the real world to secure internships and promote career development. "We just opened it up to freshmen this year and we have about 30 freshmen enrolled. We paired them all with peer mentors, so we have 22 peer mentors that are a part of it, also," said Gressley, associate professor in the Department of Animal and Food Sciences (ANFS). Brannick, assistant professor in the department, added that the program is "tailored for individual support. We have students that may want to be a part of this program for the tutoring that's offered here on South Campus." Brannick added that group tutoring sessions are held once a week on Tuesdays, from 5-7 p.m. in 049 Townsend Hall. In addition to tutoring, the students also get mentoring from peers and can request a faculty mentor, in addition to their regular faculty member adviser. Brannick explained that the peer mentoring is more focused on having the freshmen learn the ropes of the University, while the faculty mentors help give the students career attention and career planning advice. The program also brings resources directly to the students. For instance, Joyce Henderson, assistant director at the University's Career Services Center, spoke to program members about opportunities available to them. "We do a weekly discussion thread through our campus site that usually relates to either campus resources or to how students learn and study, giving tips and advice about any detailed support that they can share with each other," said Brannick. She added that the group also has weekly prize giveaways, such as gift cards to bookstores or restaurants on Main Street, to encourage the students to contribute to the discussions. In addition, Brannick said many of the students enjoy the fact that the group is close-knit. "The students have indicated that another major factor for them is just the friendships and that idea of camaraderie in the group and feeling like they have other people to go to when they need help, or knowing who to approach when they're looking for assistance beyond what they can find on their own," said Brannick. The group also participates in off-campus excursions, such as going to Milburn Orchards in the fall, and in service learning activities, such as planting beach grass at the Delaware shore. Gressley said the hope is that students who are taking the program as freshmen will come back and serve as peer mentors for the next group as they continue their college careers. There are also funds allocated to "support travel to conferences and internships and in the future we hope to kind of team up a little bit to help get them internships in their fields," said Gressley. "This year is predominantly about academic success but then as they mature, we want to get them to hit the ground running. Once they're running, we'll focus more on leadership skills and career building." Brannick added that the program is designed to "support students as they develop so it's everything from hitting the ground running and finding everything that you need around campus to being successful and to wanting to stay at UD and at our college. And there is that next phase about how to develop themselves while they're here to become leaders." The AGcelerate program is teaming up with Minorities in Agriculture, Natural Resources and Related Sciences (MANRRS) to host two booths at Ag Day on April 26 and they will host a MANRRS reunion panel on May 2 in the Townsend Hall commons from 11 a.m.-1 p.m., with a panel discussion from 11 a.m.-noon and lunch from noon-1 p.m. AGcelerate has open enrollment and is open to CANR students in all fields of study. Those interested in applying for the AGcelerate program should email the group at firstname.lastname@example.com. Article by Adam Thomas

Story: Let Us Give Thanks and Praise:
Whosoever Readers Give Thanks and Praise!
The holidays are traditionally a time when we stop and give thanks for the blessings in our lives. Some of our readers took the time to share with us what they're thankful for!
On Being Thankful
-- By: Rev. Paul Turner
There is far, far too much to do to be thankful right now; our enemy is strong and if we stop even for a second we will be overcome
I Thank You God, For The Rainbow
-- By: Carol Stabel
I thank you God for the Rainbow! And for your and All Unconditional Love - S/HE which saves me from the stigma of mental illness that some people still associate with persons of same-gendered, bisexual, and transgendered human identities.
An Editor Gives Thanks
-- By: Candace Chellew
Stopping to be thankful has been hard. I've said to myself the past few days, I've got to slow down, I've got to stop and write about what I'm thankful about. I've asked my readers to do it, so I should do the same! It's been impossible!

God Through Gay Eyes
--By: Dr. Rembert Truluck
On the basis of my own years of study and teaching the Bible, I can assure you that the Bible nowhere says that gays and lesbians can or should change their sexual orientation.
Queer and Christian
--By: Ron Chaplin
For many, this is an oxymoron. How can I consider myself Christian, they ask, and still be a "practising homosexual"? Isn't homosexuality at odds with the basic tenets of the Christian faith?
Keeping God First
--By: Randy
She also said during that time: "Keep God first in your life and everything you do and you will come out shining." As I sit there I was just thinking how much I was going to miss her. It always Mom that stood beside me.

Ex-Gay Experiences:
Back From The Dead: One Gay Christian's Journey
--By: Donna Brooks
I feel like I'm alive from the dead! I have a faith which is my own, and an optimism about the future because I've seen time and again how God uses "bad" things to bring about our growth and ultimate good.

The Holy Leper and the Bisexual Christian
-- By: Amanda Udis-Kessler
Jesus does not appear to have spent much energy worrying about the impossibility of his status, since there was too much Kingdom work to do and since his experience was that nothing was impossible with God. If I am to follow Jesus in this way, I can and must relinquish my concerns and anger about people who deny the existence of bisexuality.

Gay Christians: Uncle Toms or Fools For God?
-- By: Candace Chellew
Why be part of a church society that oppresses our GLBT brothers and sisters with such zeal? Are we as GLBT Christians really Uncle Toms to our community at large?
Hope For The Homophobe
-- By: Rev. Dr. Jim Bilbrey, Ph.D., D.D.
Born in 1954, and raised in the home of ardent fundamentalists, I was pretty sure we represented The True Church. And, The True Church preached that gays were evil. I figured I would be able to recognize gays by their cloven hoofs, pointy tails and horns.
Love Between Women
-- A Book Review By: Gip Plaster
The central argument of Love Between Women: Early Christian Responses to Female Homoerotism, is simple: Both Christian and non-Christian writers in the Roman world were aware of sexual love between women, and nearly all rejected it.
Counting Ambiguous Blessings
-- A Short Story By: Neil Ellis Orts
Brian looked up from the dog and down the road on which his mother had just driven away. "So, Doug. Are you queer or what?"
The Refugee and The Refuge
-- By: Mark Mobley
I don't think Raul's name will ever find its way onto a square in somebody's quilt. Here's your square, my friend.

From The Pulpit:
The Heart of Gratitude
--By: Dan Chambers
Giving thanks for people in our lives and for the many blessings of our lives is very important. It is good for our relationships. It is good for our soul.
Beyond Belief
"Light & Life to All Who Live"
--By: William D. Bouton
This is a popular heresy, that if we can force ourselves to think a certain way, then we have "faith." But Jesus' whole point was that faith is not a "head trip"; it's a "heart trip." Faith is not words; it's a relationship.

Bible Study and Inspiration:
The Truth About Sodom And Gomorrah
--By: Don Reasons
Most people seem to "know" that the cites of Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by God because of homosexuality. Well, I haven't been able to find the phrase, "homosexuality" anywhere in Genisis or Judges or anywhere else in the Bible refering to Sodom and Gomorrah.

I am interested in bringing history to life through telling a story using fictional characters in a well researched historical plot. I am going to explore the historical fiction genre to see how useful it is in honing in on aspects of history which are often overlooked or brushed aside by mainstream historians.

Roses and wars - my current obsession
Not for me a superficial reading of the time and place. The historian in me demands that I investigate thoroughly, steep myself in the written history and visit the historical sites to soak up the atmosphere.
So what brought me to the War of the Roses?
Several years ago as I sat in Westminster Abbey an idea came to me for a children's story featuring a little girl called Abbie who encountered a ghost in Westminster Abbey. As my time in London was short, the idea had to go on the fiction back burner until I could manage another trip. I did, however, decide that the ghost had to be a child so I made arrangements with the archivist of the Abbey to do some research into the children who were buried there on my next visit. They were very helpful, allowing me access to their archives at the top of a dusty staircase off the cloisters.
Of all the stories I read, none fascinated me as much as that of the bones which occupied an urn in the Children's Corner, believed to be those of Edward V and his brother Richard. As I set about engaging my Abbie in conversation with a haughty thirteen year old king elect, I realised I had to know what had brought him to his early death.
That was in October 2007. Nearly four years later, I know, at least as well is as generally known, what brought him to his tragic end, although like the members of the Richard III society, I don't accept that his uncle was necessarily the instigator of his demise even if he was the usurper of his crown.
The story of Abbie in the Abbey still needs work before it can go in search of a publisher but the history I have learnt is being put to good use in the class I am conducting for the University of the Third Age in Ballarat.

I was hooked as soon as I started to read your post – can't wait for the book!ReplyDelete
Love your blog by the way and am going to follow.
PS I blog about out-of-print children's & illustrated books at http://marchhousebookscom.blogspot.com/
I do need to finish Abbie in the Abbey. I plan to make a series out of it with Abbie having encounters with ghosts in some of the great cathedrals of the world - her parents are writing a coffee table book on the great cathedrals of the world. The only problem is that airfare to the great cathedrals is out of my reach at the moment.ReplyDelete
GREAT BLOG....great topic for the blog....history is awesome.ReplyDelete
Stopping by to say hello and to take a look around.
Stop by my site if you like...I am hosting a Father's Day Giveaway with five books to two luck winners.
I just visited your blog. Great - particularly the image. Can you tell me the name of the place. it looks so like Ireland.ReplyDelete

Richlands man who built black market operation in trouble with the law again
RICHLANDS � A Richlands man known for his part in one of the largest theft ring busts in North Carolina history has been charged with stealing tools, appliances and furniture from area homes and businesses.
Culley Moran Fountain, 41, Richlands Loop Drive, had his first appearance in court this week on weekend charges by the Onslow County Sheriff�s Office of 13 counts each of breaking and entering, larceny after breaking and entering and possession of stolen goods.
He is accused of breaking into several area residences and construction companies in January and February and stealing appliances to include refrigerators and stoves, furniture and a slew of hand and power tools, according to warrants.
Fountain is notorious for his part in a $2 million theft ring busted by local, state and federal authorities in 2007. He was convicted of a dozen felony counts and given five years probation in that case.
He helped build a black market operation that paid cash to thieves for stolen merchandise from all over the state, marking it as possibly the largest theft ring in North Carolina history, authorities said at the time.
Conspirators stole everything from power tools to microwaves to shoes � even kitchen sinks � from dozens of construction sites. Only about 10 percent of the stolen property was reclaimed. The rest � including cars, trailers, boats and power tools � was sold by the sheriff�s office at auction.
Fountain�s criminal activities didn�t end there. He was released from prison in April after serving one year, two months and 17 days for breaking and entering in Carteret County. In 2010, he broke into a Newport business on Christmas Eve and stole thousands of dollars worth of chainsaws.
Just prior to that, he served two months in prison for providing fictitious information to law enforcement in Pender County and 11 months for breaking and entering in Duplin County.
Fountain�s criminal convictions date back to 1989 and include drug trafficking, assault and robbery, according to the N.C. Public Safety Department.
He is being held in the Onslow County Jail on a $130,000 bond. His next court date hasn�t been set.
Crime Stoppers of Onslow County is offering a reward of up to $2,500 for information leading to further arrests in the crimes.
Anyone with information concerning the latest incident can contact the Jacksonville/Onslow Crime Stoppers at 910-938-3273 or the Onslow County Sheriff�s Office at 910-455-3113. Callers do not have to reveal their identities.
You can reach Lindell Kay at 910-219-8455 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

I am working on a computer program. It can be represented as a linear series of states $s_0 \ldots s_n$
Function $N(s_x)$ is defined such that:
- With a probability $p$ it will return the next state $$s_x \rightarrow \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} s_{x+1} & \mbox{if } x \lt n \\ s_{x} & \mbox{otherwise} \end{array} \right.$$
- With a probability of $p$ it will return the previous state $$s_x \rightarrow \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} s_{x-1} & \mbox{if } x \gt 0 \\ s_{x} & \mbox{otherwise} \end{array} \right.$$
- With a probability of $1-2p$ it will return the current state $$s_x \rightarrow s_x$$
The program is an iterative application of $N$ to the initial value $s_i$ $r$ times $$Program = N^r(s_i)$$
I need to find $P(N^r(s_i) = s_x)$ for all $0 \leq x \leq n$ (the probability that applying $N$ iteratively to $s_i$ $n$ times yields the state $s_x$)
For small values I've been manually working out the different combinations that can lead to a particular state. For example, if $n=2$, $i=1$, $p=0.25$ and $r=2$ I can create a tree to help figure out the probabilities:
In this case: $$P(s_0) = 0.25*0.25 + 0.25*0.5 + 0.5*0.25 = 0.3125$$ $$P(s_1) = 0.25*0.25 + 0.5*0.5 + 0.25*0.25 = 0.375$$ $$P(s_2) = 0.5*0.25 + 0.25*0.5 + 0.25*0.25 = 0.3125$$
However, this obviously gets impractical for the larger values I need to deal with in real life (e.g. $r=500$). Is there an easier way to calculate the probabilities?

Bank-Loan Funds See Worst Outflow Since 2011 As Rates Stagnate
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Leveraged loans - until two months ago the darlings of the income investing set - continue to fall out of favor as loan-fund outflows accelerated last week. Lipper reported that loan funds saw net redemptions of $1.2 billion in the latest week, the largest single-week net outflow since August 2011. It marked a fifth straight week of net outflows and came on the heels of a $1.1 billion net outflow a week ago, which until this week had been the largest weekly outflow since 2011.
Back in April, loan funds saw a 95-week streak of net inflows that dated back to June 2012 come to an end. Investors had been loading up on leveraged loans (also known as bank loans) as a hedge against rising interest rates, because loan rates float, unlike fixed-rate bonds. But as I pointed out in my Current Yield column shortly after loans' winning streak ended, loan rates aren't tied to any of the interest rates that have risen since rates first began rising 13 months ago. Instead, they're tied to the 3-month London interbank offered rate, a lending rate that isn't really likely to rise until central banks start raising short-term interest rates. Furthermore, most newer loans have so-called Libor floors, which specify a certain minimum yield regardless of how low actual Libor is, and in practice it means short-term rates will have to rise about three quarters of a percentage point before loan rates start to float. So the upshot is you probably shouldn't expect rates on your loan funds to go up for at least a year.
Not to say loans are a bad investment - they still offer comparatively high yields (5% on average lately), and they're secured by assets, which offsets some of the credit risk associated with the junk-rated companies who take on these loans. But be mindful of that credit risk - today's Wall Street Journal has a featured story detailing how loan covenants are becoming more lax lately, a behavior often seen at the peak of credit cycles when investor discipline starts to erode.
Despite the fund outflows, loan ETFs have been fairly flat over the past two months, with the PowerShares Senior Loan Portfolio (BKLN) ETF down up 2 cents at $24.84 today, and the actively managed SPDR Blackstone/GSO Senior Loan ETF (SRLN) down 3 cents at $49.85.

Kalamazoo, MI –
Kalamazoo Public Library will offer a series of free concerts at the Central Library this summer featuring artists from three very different musical genres. Steppin' In It performed on June 17 and Pacifica Quartet on July 8. Next up is Rachel Davis on Tuesday, August 12, at 7:00 pm.
Rachael Davis began singing on-stage at the age of two with her parents. Six years into her solo career, she's shared the stage with such musical luminaries as Taj Mahal, Fred Eaglesmith, Josh Ritter, Prairie Home Companion regulars Robin and Linda Williams, folk divas Claudia Schmidt and Sally Rogers, jazz legends Marcus Belgrave and Winston Walls, and many others. In 2003, she took grand prize in the Telluride Bluegrass Festival's Troubadour Contest. Her influences range from the jazz stylings of Ella Fitzgerald to the soulful pop vocals of Patty Griffin. A contemporary songwriter, she's equally at home singing anything from traditional ballads to Cole Porter to Joe Henry.

text: As far as homegrown retailers go, few have cultivated that aura of all-American authenticity more fervently than L.L. Bean, which began in 1912 as a mail-order business in Greenwood, Maine. Yet with the exception of its duck boot, boat tote, and the odd kayak paddle or two, which the company continues to produce in the Pine State, its once-venerable catalog has mostly succumbed to the deluge of Asian and South American imports. Still, the Beanster might be contemplating a return to form. Together with Woolrich Woolen Mills, L.L. Bean has launched a capsule collection of bags and boots under its higher-end "Signature" label. Clad in winter-ready ombre wool plaid, the tote, pouch, and 10-to-16-inch boots are made in Maine, just like our grandparents remember. Maybe you can teach an old dog old tricks, after all.

I am using tslist to produce a time series at a point in my model, here called "Lukla" or "luk". However the tslist data doesn't match up with the wrfout file data. Does anyone know how the tslist interpolates to a point? It looks like it just takes the variable at the ix, iy points given in the luk.d04.TS file.
Graphs of the U, V and T comparisons at the 5th model level, and the surface 2m air temperature are here
I have tried some surrounding points to see if it might be an interpolation problem. I have also tried different vertical levels (although don't think this is the problem as the surface values are also wrong). I have looked at different variables at different heights, and also some other locations. As the values are a few degrees or m/s they are unlikely to be useful for model validation.
Thanks to anyone with any ideas!

Lubuntu Wily beta 2
We are pleased to announce the release of Wily 15.10 Beta 2. Head over to the Wiki page for full details.
Publicat per Rafael Laguna a 01:48
4 comments:
Thanks for the news. Is this version has lxqt as de?ReplyDelete
No, Rani. This version is, essentially, a bug fix release. It'll have LXDE desktop. Soon I'll post a really working PPA for installing LXQt easily in our Lubuntu 15.10 :)ReplyDelete
Would it be possible to upgrade to the release easily enough when it is out? Or would that require a reinstall?ReplyDelete
Yes, zeke. When it's out, you'll get a message about upgrading. That process is completely safe. In that process your 3rd party repositories will be deactivated to avoid package collisions. I, for instance, installed this beta over an older version without formatting and reinstalling.ReplyDelete
There's another way to check for an upgrade. Open a terminal and type "update-manager -d" and you will force the upgrade.

That is very likely the number one criticism Nintendo has received this generation. It is also the number one criticism that is absolutely wrong.
What many fail to realize is that Nintendo has in fact given online gaming a chance during just about every console generation since the original Nintendo Entertainment System. From investments to partnerships, the history of Nintendo's online escapades is one that spans over two decades and is deeper than the blue of the Pacific. Nintendo's online past also paints a picture of how the company, though it may say differently now, once strived to become a communications juggernaut like that of AOL Time Warner or MSNBC.
"Few have taken the jump, and they've found it to be very deep water. We're all looking at that aggressively. For anyone to deny the reality of the web is to defy gravity. The web is real and it's going to be an ever more important part of everybody's life. Discovering the appropriate business model for this sector of the business world, I think, is on everyone's lips, and we're all working at it very aggressively."
- Peter Main
former NOA executive VP of sales & marketing
Famicom Network
It all began back in 1983 with the Japanese release of the Famicom (NES). It wasn't until 1987, however, when Nintendo first sponsored and arranged an "electronic golf tournament" using Famicoms and Disk Faxes - communicating over the telephone network - to test the possibilities of creating a regional network of Famicoms across Japan. This simple "test" proved to be a success.
It was but a year later in 1988, that president Hiroshi Yamauchi and Nintendo set about becoming a "communications" company and establishing its own "internet". The Nintendo Famicom would attach to an approximately $100 priced modem called a "Communications Adapter" - developed by Masayuki Uemura's R&D 2 team - and into a phone line. This connection created the "Family Computer Communications Network System".
Using a simple cartridge, the Famicom was essentially turned into an online enabled game system. When turned on, a menu screen would appear that resembled the main screen of "Super Mario Bros". Via the Famicom Network, Japanese children were given the opportunity to play video games (among others, Henk Roger's go game proved to be popular) against a child on the other side of Japan.
Nintendo's president, Hiroshi Yamauchi, believed at the time that such a network would mold the future of Nintendo. Video games, Yamauchi felt, offered a limited audience and business. On the other hand, he felt "communications" could only be bounded by outer space itself.
"Other companies had sought to hook up households via telephone lines and computers, including NTT, but none had what Nintendo had: computers sitting in one third of the country's homes."
- David Sheff
writer of "Game Over: Press Start to Continue"
Nintendo had a true "Trojan Horse" on its hands. Nintendo's goal was to provide or license business and other services on its Family Computer Network. Nintendo essentially had "control" over everything - a position that gave it the ability to not only charge users for using the online service but also charge those businesses that wanted to provide product and information on the network. Had this network caught on, Nintendo would have gained its video game monopoly times two. Nintendo would have become a God and a dictator of content.
Nintendo could make commissions or fees on home banking, shopping, and airline ticketing done on the Famicom network or charge for information such as movie reviews, news, and content (all realities of our present day "Internet"). Users could even buy stamps, bet on horse races, or exercise.
That same year, Nomura Computing Center developed and operated the Nomura Securities' Famicom trading service system, which was the forerunner of the home trading service in use. In addition, over 300 banks signed up to utilize the Famicom network. Finally, the Super Mario Club was formed so that Nintendo distributors across Japan could access information about games (including reviews) online.
And the most appealing aspect of the network? Nintendo could advertise new Nintendo games and products.
In Nintendo's 1989 annual report, Yamauchi said:
"We believe that the arrival of the high-information age has brought about a new opportunity for people to consider what vital information really is, and what information they really want. By employing the Nintendo Family Entertainment System as a domestic communications terminal, utilizing regular telephone line, and the establishment of a large-scale network which to this point has been inconceivable, we plan to provide a vital supply of information for the domestic lifestyle in the fields of entertainment, finance, securities, and health management, to mention but a few... The network shows how the Famicom has outgrown its single purpose as an amusement system."
- Hiroshi Yamauchi
former Nintendo Co., Ltd. president
It's strangely ironic that Nintendo's goal once mirrored that of Microsoft. Unfortunately, there were a couple roadblocks back then. One being simple technicalities including difficulty in installing and maintaining servers. The other, a bit more difficult, was convincing adults to use the Famicom as more than a child's games machine. The last thing standing in Nintendo's way were families who didn't want their telephone lines being tied up for long periods of time.
A year or so into the program, the total number of Famicom users that signed up for the service was approximately 130,000. About 18,000 used it for the stock-brokering services, 14,000 for banking services, and 3,000 for the Super Mario Club. In total, sales of the Famicom Disk System reached a little over 2 million.
Online gaming, moreover a massive online network, was still but a dream. Yamauchi admitted this in 1991.
"It is just a matter of time. When the people are ready for it, we have the Network in place."
- Hiroshi Yamauchi
It's hard to believe Nintendo was doing all this back in the late '80s. It wasn't until 1994, however, when actual commercial use of the Internet began in Japan, rapidly increasing the number of users. And it wasn't until 1995, when the Denkatsu Club, one of Japan's first online shopping malls, opened its doors.
It appears Nintendo was simply ahead of its time.
Meanwhile, in North America, Nintendo of America president Minoru Arakawa was making his own attempt at bringing Nintendo NES Network to consumers.
Many in the North American computer industry wondered if Nintendo had the balls to step onto their territory. The NES had access to nearly 33 percent of American homes while the PC was only in 15 percent. NOA hired Jerry Ruttenbur to head the North American network, with an intended North American launch in 1990. Nintendo hoped to have 10 million users by year's end. Fidelity Investment was the first company to join the network, thereby offering customers the ability to manage their portfolios at home. In the months leading up to the launch, Dow Jones Professional Investors Report and many others signed on.
For the North American launch, Nintendo created a bundle that included a modem, keyboard, and printer. Initially, Nintendo of America decided to launch the network for the sole purpose of game playing and then add other abilities as time progressed and users became accustomed to navigating the service. The initial service would allow gamers to get game "tips", or converse with other gamers in chat rooms. In addition, games could be downloaded onto a disk drive. This was important to Nintendo. It could bypass the whole drawn-out series of transactions from manufacturer to retailer to customer, and instead transfer the completed games directly over the network and to the customer's television.
Ruttenbur however didn't receive the support necessary to properly launch the network. The network still had not arrived on the market by 1991. As a result, Ruttenbur resigned from his job, no doubt frustrated at Minoru Arakawa's (NOA president) lack of support. Was Arakawa's cold shoulder to an "online Nintendo" wise? One will never know...
Nintendo of America was given one last opportunity in September 1991, when it was approached by Control Data Corporation, a company that handled lottery in many states around the US. The company proposed Nintendo would allow the NES to connect to a network giving people from around the state of Minnesota and others the chance to play the lottery. The Minnesota state attorney general however criticized the program saying it gave children too much of an opportunity to gamble and moreover, state-supported gambling would set a bad example. Due to pressure from the state of Minnesota, Control Data terminated its lottery test in Minnesota and as a result, the Nintendo Network took one last breath and then closed its eyes of ebony forever.
A normal person might see these failures as something to better sweep under the rug or into the closet. For Yamauchi, these events did not deter him from his love affair with the communications industry. The Nintendo Famicom Network would not be the company's last attempt.
"You have to assume that network gaming of some kind is one of the things that we recognize as part of the future of the video-game business. So I think it's fair to say that we're spending a lot of time and money in areas like that."
- Howard Lincoln
former chairman, Nintendo of America
The birth of the 90s would see Nintendo hosting a global Tetris competition between Europe, North America, and Japan. And just as the Famicom had succumbed to online gaming, Nintendo's next console would not escape the prospects of an online utopia.
In early January of 1995, Nintendo and GTE Telephone Operations announced an alliance to research and develop interactive multiplayer video games that could be transmitted over interactive television networks. The first product co-developed by Nintendo and GTE would be a game for Super Nintendo called "FX Fighter", which utilized the second generation Super FX graphics co-processor chip. A version was also said to be in preparation for Nintendo's then rumored 64-bit console (Nintendo 64) and the game was also destined to run over GTE phone lines carrying interactive TV and other services. It was suspected that games through the alliance would be incorporated into GTE's "Main Street", an interactive home shopping, travel, entertainment, educational, and personal finance service.
GTE was also said to be developing games that would tie-in with existing game and sports shows. The idea was to periodically show viewers how their score ranks compared to other viewers. Robert Regan, senior vice president of programming for GTE, noted, "People love to see their names in lights." Unfortunately, someone failed to find the light switch for this vague partnership.
This deal was done primarily for research purposes, therefore there's not much of a surprise that nothing major ever came out of it. The collaboration between GTE and Nintendo quickly fell through, leaving the sole game from the partnership "FX Fighter" to release only for the PC.
After nearly half a decade of research and tests, Yamauchi and Nintendo were still at the bottom of a flight of stairs. Their goal sat impatiently at the top. Lacking a handrail (a foundation) to keep steady, Nintendo would ascend with baby steps and one day, no doubt, reach the top.

O'Reilly, Wall Street Journal made bogus claims about Zarqawi to bolster Bush's case for Iraq war
Research ››› ››› GABE WILDAU
As the situation in Iraq worsens, President George W. Bush's supporters in the media have renewed their efforts to justify the war by echoing a dubious Bush administration claim about a link between Al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein's Iraq. In recent days, FOX News Channel host Bill O'Reilly and The Wall Street Journal have written articles focusing on Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the Jordanian-born terrorist now active in Iraq whom the Bush administration cited before and after the war as evidence of a dangerous Iraq-Al Qaeda connection. In fact, though he is a terrorist, Zarqawi's prewar connections to both Hussein and Al Qaeda were tenuous.
Zarqawi was a crucial element in the Bush administration's case for war against Iraq. When Secretary of State Colin Powell addressed the United Nations Security Council on February 5, 2003, he discussed Zarqawi at length, claiming that the terrorist had helped establish Al Qaeda "affiliates" in Baghdad. On June 15, 2003, one month after Bush declared an end to major combat in Iraq, he described Zarqawi as "the best evidence of [an Iraqi] connection to Al Qaeda affiliates and Al Qaeda."
In his September 16 nationally syndicated column, O'Reilly echoed the Bush administration's claim, emphasizing Zarqawi's supposed connection with both Iraq and Al Qaeda and blasting The New York Times for not acknowledging it. But O'Reilly's column distorted or omitted crucial facts:
What are we to make of the New York Times describing terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi as a "Jordanian militant"? [NYT article here] I mean, this guy is one of the most vicious al Qaeda thugs in the world. ... On June 17th of this year, a U.S. intelligence official provided my researcher Nate Fredman with the following information: In early 2000, Zarqawi traveled to Afghanistan to assume a leadership position in an al Qaeda training camp.
But Zarqawi's training camp in Afghanistan was apparently not an Al Qaeda camp at all. In a June 26 New York Times op-ed, Peter Bergen, author of Holy War, Inc.: Inside the Secret World of Osama bin Laden, wrote:
So is Abu Musab al-Zarqawi really the missing link between Al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein? Actually, the evidence of his relationship with either is far from clear cut. ... One indication of his independence is that when he founded his training camp in Afghanistan in 2000, he did so near the western city of Herat, on the Iranian border, hundreds of miles away from Al Qaeda's camps.
Roger Cressey, who was a counterterrorism official on the National Security Council staff at that time, told me that Mr. Zarqawi's camp was set up "as much in competition as it was in cooperation" with Al Qaeda.
A June 25, 2003, Newsweek article supports Bergen's and Cressey's assessment:
During his [Zarqawi's] stay in Baghdad, Powell claimed [in his U.N. speech] that "nearly two dozen ... al Qaeda affiliates" converged on the Iraqi capital and "established a base of operations there."
But the German interrogations of [Zarqawi associate] Shadi Abdallah present a more complex and somewhat different picture of Zarqawi's role in international terrorism. According to Abdullah, Zarqawi's Al Tawhid group focuses on installing an Islamic regime in Jordan and killing Jews. And although Al Tawhid maintained its own training camp near Herat, Afghanistan, Zarqawi competed with bin Laden for trainees and members, Abdallah claimed.
O'Reilly has a long history of bogus claims about Zarqawi. On the June 3 edition of FOX News Channel's The O'Reilly Factor, for example, O'Reilly called Zarqawi "second or third in command of Al Qaeda."
O'Reilly continued his distortions by suggesting that Zarqawi's treatment in a Baghdad hospital proves his cooperation with Saddam: "Zarqawi stayed in the Al Qaeda area until war broke out after 9/11/01. He actively fought against U.S. forces and was wounded. After the collapse of the Taliban, he fled to Iran and then traveled to Iraq where his wounded leg was treated in a hospital run by Uday Hussein."
But Newsweek reported in a March 3, 2003, article that U.S. officials don't regard Zarqawi's treatment as definitive evidence of complicity with Hussein:
American officials know only a few basic facts about Zarqawi's two-month stay in Baghdad last summer. A hospital treated him for injuries sustained in Afghanistan. His leg was amputated, and he was fitted with a prosthesis. The Iraqi government's role in arranging for the treatment is "unknown," U.S. officials confess, and the hospitalization does not prove any Iraqi government "complicity."
More recently, on March 22, Newsweek suggested that even the basic intelligence about Zarqawi's medical care is faulty:
Before the Iraq war, one article of indictment against Saddam was that he had supplied Zarqawi with medical treatment in Baghdad -- including a prosthetic leg -- after the latter was badly wounded in Afghanistan. But that appears to have been based on more bad intel. Senior U.S. military officials in Baghdad tell Newsweek they are now convinced Zarqawi has two fully functioning legs.
In his column, O'Reilly also referenced Ansar al-Islam, a terrorist group based in northern Iraq with which Zarqawi worked. But he failed to mention either that Ansar al-Islam's ties to Al Qaeda are tenuous or that the region in northeastern Iraq where Ansar al-Islam was based was outside of Hussein's control. O'Reilly wrote: "In the summer of 2002, Zarqawi went to Northern Iraq to train terrorists with the group Ansar al Islam, which is affiliated with al Qaeda."
But as The Washington Post reported on June 22, 2003, Ansar al-Islam was "unaffiliated" with Al Qaeda:
The president said some al Qaeda leaders had fled Afghanistan to Iraq and referred to one "very senior al Qaeda leader who received medical treatment in Baghdad this year." It was a reference to Abu Musab Zarqawi, a Jordanian. U.S. intelligence already had concluded that Zarqawi was not an al Qaeda member but the leader of an unaffiliated terrorist group who occasionally associated with al Qaeda adherents.
And according to a January 23 Associated Press article, "Ansar al-Islam operated in a region of northern Iraq that was outside of Saddam's control before the war."
O'Reilly also failed to note that, according to NBC News, the Bush administration considered mounting an attack specifically targeting Zarqawi and Ansar al-Islam, "but the administration feared destroying the terrorist camp in Iraq could undercut its case for war against Saddam." Ironically, O'Reilly concluded his column by noting, "The reason the Times and some other liberal media operations continue to downplay Zarqawi and, indeed, the entire worldwide terror threat is ... the liberal press does not want another pre-emptive strike against terrorists like the one the USA launched against Iraq."
In its September 23 editorial (WSJ.com subscription required), The Wall Street Journal also emphasized Zarqawi's allegedly close connection to Al Qaeda. "It's worth remembering," the Journal wrote, "that Zarqawi had fewer qualms about the secular Saddam, with whom he worked visibly enough to be cited in Colin Powell's February 2003 U.N. presentation." But this observation proves little given that Powell's U.N. speech has been largely discredited by subsequent findings (or lack of findings) in Iraq.
The Journal concluded: "Of course, opponents of deposing Saddam keep telling us the old regime had no connections to terrorism. But we certainly feel safer knowing that one half of the Saddam-Zarqawi alliance now resides in an Iraqi jail." But as noted above, what the Journal calls an "alliance" has amounted to little, so far as U.S. intelligence can tell, beyond treatment in a hospital followed by travel to a region of Iraq outside Hussein's control.
For more articles assessing Zarqawi's ties to Al Qaeda, see The Christian Science Monitor (October 16, 2003), The New York Times (February 22), and Knight Ridder Newspapers (March 3, 2003).

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Lipscomb track and field program ended an historic season Saturday night at the NCAA Championship Preliminary Round. Three student-athletes made it to the qualifying round but will not advance to June's national championship round.
Sophomore Dani Walker was Saturday's lone Lipscomb competitor. The Wichita, Kan. native started strong but faded slightly down the stretch, finishing 21st in her heat and 40th overall at 17:10.99s.
In Friday night action, freshman Kendra Lobley battled through injury to post a 10:59.57s mark in the women's 3000m steeplechase. She finished 16th in her heat and 45th overall.
Sophomore Tucker Peabody pulled up with about 60 meters to go in his heat of the 200m dash, with his 26.39s mark putting him well below his usual times. He finished 45th overall.
"We had a pretty rough meet athletically," said Lipscomb head coach Bill Taylor. "It was disappointing in that respect. I suppose that is to be expected to some extent for our first ever time at this meet, and with such young runners. It showed us that while we have progressed at an incredible rate, we still have a long way to go if we truly want to be one of the top programs in the nation."
Taylor is excited about the progress his team has made this year and looks forward to the future.
"I hope that Dani, Tucker and Kendra learned more about what they want in the future and what they have to do to get there," Taylor said. "I also hope that these three have inspired the rest of our team to get here next year. I hope we have 10 or more qualify next year. It's been a great year. We have an exciting future ahead of us."
