text: RED I FLIGHT is in it for the long haul. That?s why, when building the blueprints for their 2008 Victory Records debut, The Years, they pulled out all the stops. First, they whittled the track list to the precise, elite songs that gave no space for fillers. These raging tracks, full of guttural vocals and implausible breakdowns a la Killswitch Engage and As I Lay Dying, were the best of the best ? no need for the band to bother with mediocrity when designing their tour de force. This was done with the help of producer Jamie King, whose own series of blinding creativity has produced gutsy albums from Between the Buried and Me, Secret Lives of the Fremasons and He Is Legend. Under King?s golden touch, RED I FLIGHT was able to create the debut they had been waiting for since their years as Michigan?s resident metal demons. Which led RED I FLIGHT to the final step in their conception of a long-withstanding album ? the name. Held together by their roots and the road they?d traveled to become a signed band, it was titled i>The Years, an ode to the time it took to get where they currently stand. ?Through our ups and downs and hard work, we have all have come to an achievement we have been devoting our lives to,? says guitarist Eric Gerloff. ?That is the symbolism of The Years.? The band?s unique moniker also sprouted from their symbolic tendencies. The name was lifted off of the song ?Red Eye Flight? by Candiria, a band favorite, and, after several member changes, the ?eye? was replaced with ?I? to have a greater meaning. And with a trusted lineup in the shape of family ? brothers Jesse (drums) and Josh Robinson (vocals) ? and friends (Mike Polec on bass and Matt Earp on guitar), they knew they had found the most passionate and ambitious group of members that they could go with to the next level. ?The band originated from friends and family members all having the same idea of wanting to play music. Our most recent collection of mostly original members and people who became a part of the band moved us in the direction that everyone wanted to go,? Gerloff says. ?We feel like this is the best lineup we could possibly have had becoming a Victory band. Pertaining to the use of ?I? instead of ?eye,? this is to show our unity as a collection of people that are considered one entity.? If all of this sounds very profound and philosophical for a metal/hardcore band, it?s just RED I FLIGHT?s way of staking their deserved place out in the musical landscape. In the hands of these detailed musicians, the powerful guitar work and melodic counterparts are of a different breed. RED I FLIGHT aren?t out to be a carbon copy of the other bands in their genres ? they have more to them than what meets the ?I.? This is a band with the whole package: driven, talented and prepared for a vital and promising future. ?We don?t want to label ourselves into genres and limit the possibility of people listening to the album,? Gerloff says. ?So we always say we are a metal/hardcore band who shred riffs and breakdowns that are heavy and have melodies that you?re gonna remember.? So now, with a solid release under their belt, it sounds like this is one game plan that sees no end in sight.

Up-front commission for IFAs will be slashed by two-thirds by 2003 as stakeholder prices are applied to all financial products, claims Cap Gemini Ernst & Young in a report.
The report, which surveyed the country's biggest insurers and IFAs, predicts that nine out of 10 financial products will carry a 1 per cent charge by 2003.
It says life offices will not be able to afford large up-front commission to IFAs when they cannot recoup revenue from product charges.
The report says cuts will not be felt immediately as life companies will continue to pay IFAs initial commission in an effort to buy market share and keep their client base.
But it says this will sparka move towards fund-based renewal commission.
It believes reduced commission will force e-commerce to the forefront. To bring down their own costs, IFAs will demand an extra range of support services on an electronic basis.
Cap Gemini Ernst & Young vice-president Shaun Crawford says: "Renewal commission encourages IFAs to keep their clients with the same pension fund."
Maddison Monetary Management managing director Mark Howard says: "The industry cannot support the current method of remunerating for advice. We have got to embrace different ways of getting advice paid for or we will die as an industry.
"Charging fees will make us professional advice givers rather than product sellers and we can earn every time we deal with a client."
Scottish Widows head of IFA development Robert Wyllie says: "The amount we can recoup in charges will affect IFA commission.
"But this does not spell the death of the industry. IFAs have been adept at changing their business operations. The industry has proved it can live with change."
'Commissionto be slashed across board'
Up-front commission for IFAs will be slashed by two-thirds by 2003 as stakeholder prices are applied to all financial products, claims Cap Gemini Ernst & Young in a report.

Arrow is getting a mysterious new villain for its 6th season. At San Diego Comic Con it was announced that Michael Emerson would be joining the cast of the popular CW superhero show in an undisclosed role. He joins Kirk Acevedo who is playing the season's other big bad Ricardo Diaz/Richard Dragon.
Season 5 of Arrow brought Oliver's (Stephen Amell) story full circle. It closed out the flashbacks of his time on the island which have been an integral part of the show since its inception. Rather than focusing on the mystical and magical of seasons past the show came back to its more grounded roots. One of the strongest parts in all of this was Josh Segarra's chilling portrayal of Adrian Chase/Prometheus. He proved to be a strong foe up until the finale's crazy cliffhanger that saw Chase's death at his own hand and the island Lian Yu blown up in an explosion leaving the characters' lives hanging in the balance.
And it looks like the villains are only going to get better. In an interview with TV Line co-showrunner and producer Wendy Mericle has already praised Emerson's performance.
He is a dream to work with, and I think he's doing an amazing job. We've seen some dailies of some of his episodes and he's just fantastic. He's a really understated, subtle actor, and that brings a different energy on set. It's great.
Mericle has also teased a little of what to expect from Emerson's character. The actor is best known for his roles playing pretty evil - or at least morally gray - characters, from a serial killer on The Practice to the puppet master Benjamin Linus on Lost. It looks like he is bringing some of his skills now to his role on Arrow.
This character that we're having [Michael] play is somewhat similar to people has has played in the past. But we had many conversations with him about how to make it different, and what elements we could bring to the character to change it up.
Arrow has had a number of strong villains over the years from Prometheus to Damien Darhk (Neal McDonough) and Slade Wilson/Deathstroke (Manu Bennett). A hero is only as strong as his villains and having an actor of Emerson's caliber join the cast will only make the show better as it gives Oliver and company someone else to test themselves against.
Besides the new characters Deathstroke is also slated to return to Arrow this season. However, it is uncertain whether he will be an ally or an enemy. It also seems that Felicity's (Emily Bett Rickards) involvement with Helix and their leader Cayden James isn't over either. Looks like the members of Team Arrow who survive the explosion are going to have a lot on their hands this season.

The season 6 premiere of Arrow, titled 'Fallout', will air Thursday October 12 at 9 PM on The CW.

I've decided I really like the aesthetic of my Isobel portraits (no longer online due to model request), and want to do more in the same style, so have started with a new series featuring Erin. Click link/image to see the full series.
I was going for a particular look with this series, taking what I liked best from my shots of Isobel. So I only wanted quite basic poses and Erin making eye contact. But we did shoot a few more unusual poses, and ones that didn't quite fit, so here are those (continues after the jump):

Angel's first visit to the National Library!
Brought her to the one at Bishan, near Junction 8 a few months back.
Making our way to the children's section.
Decided to take the lift down
instead of walking down the stairs.
And ta-dah!
Here we are at the children's section.
Brought Angel to the toddler area.
Books there are more suited for her age.
She immediately started grabbing some books and went to the chair and table to start flipping them.
Read some books with her.
And she was so intrigued by the many books and colours!
My favourite photo!
Sitting on the cute little round chairs!
Really hope the girls would develop the love for books, as I had.
If I could, I'd bring them to the library at least once a week!
Borrowed some books myself,
before we headed down to Junction 8.
Passed by Macdonalds and the girl insisted on dragging me back,
to get her the happy meal toy she saw.
And fries.
Satisfied little girl with her Happy Meal.
Waited to have lunch together.
While Angel happily ate & drank Ribena.
Then we all went to grocery shop,
before picking Sera up from school.
Cos I insisted I wanted to make Corn Beef Stew for dinner for the first time!
Chopped up veggies!
This dish reminded me of home so much!
I miss my mummy's cooking.
So invited mummy over for dinner to try out the dish she had taught me to make.
I don't cook very often,
so hubby obligingly ate this dish although he doesn't like veggies
Very happy the dish turned out nicely!
Had a very satisfying day!

Finally I am home on a weekday with my favourite girls!
Dressed in our national flag colours.
Sera celebrated National Day in school yesterday.
Managed to wake her up early as it was a combine session for all classes.
Which starts at 8.30am.
Eating breakfast with her,
before I left for work.
And as usual on National Day itself...
Yearly tradition of going to Jalan Kayu to eat their famous prata as a family!
Eat until..............
Sera's expression.
Harmonious sisterly moments.
On our way back,
Sera insisted that she wanted to hold meimei.
Poor Sera all squashed up.

Found a packet of mini marshmallows I had bought for the girls.
Ideally not meant for BBQ, cos it's so small.
But what is a BBQ without roasted marshmallows?!?!?!
Mini marshmallows squeezed together,
ready for roasting!
Sera helping daddy.
But she was rather terrified.
So scared until likedat.
Blowing to cool her first ever,
self roasted marshmallows.
Taking her first bite.
Her expression.
Birthday princess quietly sitting down,
nom-ing & enjoying her marshmallows.
And they just kept eating & eating & eating.
This year, I wanted to get the ice-cream cake from Swensen's.
I called on a Thursday and they told me the cake would be ready by the following Monday.
Like seriously...
Decided on good old Bakerzin instead.
(Love their new packaging!)
Strawberry Shortcake.
2 candles = 2 years old.
You grow up so fast!
Singing "Happy Birthday" with us.
My little Tang family.
Opening up her birthday presents!
And Sera wasn't forgotten either,
although it wasn't her birthday.
Aren't these 2 girls so blessed & fortunate?
Sera pouring tea & making kopi for us.
Angel's new fav toy.
It's a Hello Kitty set.
Thermoflask that you can put water in and press to let the water come out like the real one.
Cake cutting set with cutleries, plates, teapot & "biscuits".
Busy "cutting cake"
Someone commented that she looked like
she was cutting open durian instead.

It does not envy, it does not boast,
It is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,

It keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
But rejoices in the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
Always hopes, always perserveres.

You can authenticate with Microsoft to create your own instance of the Outlook Email element through the UI or through APIs. Once authenticated, you can use the element instance to access the different functionality offered by the Microsoft platform.
Authenticate Through the UI
Use the UI to authenticate with Microsoft and create an element instance. Because you authenticate with Microsoft via OAuth 2.0, all you need to do is add a name for the instance. After you create the instance, you'll log in to Microsoft to authorize Cloud Elements access to your account. For more information about authenticating an element instance, see Authenticate an Element Instance (UI).
After successfully authenticating, we give you several options for next steps. Make requests using the API docs associated with the instance, map the instance to a virtual data resource, or use it in a formula template.
Authenticate Through API
Authenticating through API is similar to authenticating via the UI. Instead of clicking and typing through a series of buttons, text boxes, and menus, you will instead send a request to our
/instances endpoint. The end result is the same, though: an authenticated element instance with a token and id.
Authenticating through API follows a multi-step OAuth 2.0 process that involves:
- Getting a redirect URL. This URL sends users to the vendor to log in to their account.
- Authenticating users and receiving the authorization grant code. After the user logs in, the vendor makes a call back to the specified url with an authorization grant code.
- Authenticating the element instance. Using the authorization code from the vendor, authenticate with the vendor to create an element instance at Cloud Elements.
Getting a Redirect URL
Use the following API call to request a redirect URL where the user can authenticate with the service provider. Replace
{keyOrId} with the element key,
curl -X GET /elements/{keyOrId}/oauth/url?apiKey=<Microsoft Application Id>&apiSecret=<Microsoft Password/PublicKey> &callbackUrl=<Microsoft Redirect URL>&scope=offline_access https://outlook.office.com/mail.send https://outlook.office.com/mail.read https://outlook.office.com/mail.readwrite
Query Parameters
|Query Parameter
|The API key or client ID obtained from registering your app with the provider. This is the Application Id that you recorded in API Provider Setup.
|The client secret obtained from registering your app with the API provider. This is the Password/PublicKey that you recorded in API Provider Setup.
|The URL that the API provider returns a user to after they authorize access. This is the Redirect URL that you recorded in API Provider Setup.
|The list of scopes granted to the app. The list in the example (
offline_access https://outlook.office.com/mail.send https://outlook.office.com/mail.read https://outlook.office.com/mail.readwrite) represent the minimum required to make the requests in Outlook Email's element API docs.
Example Request
curl -X GET \
'https://api.cloud-elements.com/elements/api-v2/elements/outlookemail/oauth/url?apiKey=Rand0MAP1-key&apiSecret=fak3AP1-s3Cr3t&callbackUrl=https:%3A%2F%2Fwww.mycoolapp.com%2auth&scope=offline_access%20https://outlook.office.com/mail.send%20https://outlook.office.com/mail.read%20https://outlook.office.com/mail.readwrite' \
Example Response
Use the
oauthUrl in the response to allow users to authenticate with the vendor.
"oauthUrl": "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize?scope=offline_access+https%3A%2F%2Foutlook.office.com%2Fmail.send+https%3A%2F%2Foutlook.office.com%2Fmail.read+https%3A%2F%2Foutlook.office.com%2Fmail.readwrite&response_type=code&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fhttpbin.org%2Fget&state=outlookemail&client_id=Rand0MAP1-key",
"element": "outlookemail"
Authenticating Users and Receiving the Authorization Grant Code
Provide the
oauthUrl in the response from the previous step to the users. After users authenticate, Microsoft provides the following information in the response:
- code
- state
|Response Parameter
|The authorization grant code returned from the API provider in an OAuth 2.0 authentication workflow. Cloud Elements uses the code to retrieve the OAuth access and refresh tokens from the endpoint.
|A customizable identifier, typically the element key (
outlookemail) .
error instead of the
code parameter. In this case, your application can handle the error gracefully.
Authenticating the Element Instance
Use the
code from the previous step and the

CHICAGO (CNS) — Catholic Extension is encouraging young filmmakers to celebrate an "Extension Day" of their own choosing and to film the encounters as part of a video contest sponsored by Catholic Extension.
The contest is called "Make Some Noise!" and will award multiple prizes of up to $1,000 for the ministry of the winner's choice and the opportunity to have the winning videos seen by Pope Francis.
Extension Day is meant to be a day dedicated to extending the gifts of the Catholic faith through acts of prayer, service or philanthropy. And, because Catholic Extension's mission is to build the church in areas where challenges are great and resources are scarce, part of the intent is that acts extend beyond the typical boundaries of a parish or youth group or similar organization.
Videos submitted for the contest should be less than two minutes long, explain the activity chosen for Extension Day, and complete the sentence: "Our Extension Day is extending the church's presence by …" Videos do not need to be polished; they can be recorded on whatever is available.
The entry deadline is Feb. 3. Videos can be submitted through the Instagram website. For more contest details, go to www.extensionday.org.
Judging the submissions will be Catholic actor Chris O'Donnell, star of the CBS drama "NCIS: Los Angeles"; Father Dave Dwyer, director of the website Busted Halo; and Father Mark Mary, co-host of the Eternal Word Television Network program "Life on the Rock."
Help keep Catholic media free, support CatholicPhilly.com
You may have noticed "pay walls" greeting you when you visit the websites of newspapers and magazines, both large and small. These mechanisms allow you to read a few articles for free before you've got to pay an annual fee if you want to see more.
You won't find a pay wall on CatholicPhilly.com because we're more than a news organization. We're informing, inspiring and forming readers in the Catholic faith every day through the news, features and commentaries that we post on this site and share across social media.
It costs money to provide high-quality coverage of the local Catholic communities we primarily serve, while also distributing national and world news of interest to Catholics, plus the orthodox teachings of the Catholic faith.
Help us in this mission by making a single gift of $40, $50, $100, or more. Your gift will strengthen the fabric of our entire Catholic community.

The Hong Kong Exchange Fund posted a HK$18.7 billion loss in the third quarter due to poor showing on foreign exchange investments, the Hong Kong Economic Journal reported Tuesday.
It marks the second such loss since the second quarter last year, the report noted.
The fund's overall investment income, however, stood at HK$37.7 billion for the first three quarters following a buoyant performance in the first half to June.
The investment market is likely to remain volatile in the fourth quarter, weighing on the performance of the fund this quarter, as it is still uncertain when the US will start to raise its key interest rate, Norman Chan Tak-lam, chief executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, was quoted as saying.
The loss in foreign exchange investment of the fund has expanded to HK$28.4 billion in the third quarter from HK$700 million in the second quarter.
The loss was largely the result of depreciation in non-US currencies, in particular the euro, Japanese yen and the British pound. The fund's Hong Kong equity holdings made a loss of HK$200 million.
Income from other equity investment and bonds plunged 82.5 percent and 47 percent quarter on quarter respectively, to HK$2.8 billion and HK$7.1 billion.
The fund distributed HK$6.7 billion income to the government for the third quarter, bringing the total for the first nine months to HK$20.6 billion.

Max Mills MBE
No doubt many of you will now be aware that Max has been awarded the MBE for services to Education in this New Year's Honours list.
I have to say that the Award is thoroughly well deserved - to give 51 years dedicated service to education is quite remarkable and although St John Fisher kept trying to make him leave he just kept coming back at the start of every term ! (Only joking Max).
Max finally retired in 2015 but still remains a committed volunteer at the school, dedicating his time to the development of the junior players and running the St John Fisher Table Tennis teams as well as being a valued member of the HTTA committee.
I've personally known Max for many years now and like myself I 'm sure that a great number of HTTA players will have connections with Max, he's been around so long that it's impossible not to have played him or seen him attend as a non playing captain!
I was speaking to Dave Archbold earlier this week and he fondly remembers Max as a one the PE teachers who ran the Harrogate & District Football Squad in 1966/67. Dave was at Christ Church School and goalkeeper for Harrogate Schoolboys. I find this remarkable given Dave has only just reached official retirement age. It really does go to show how long Max has been involved in local education.
From my own perspective Max was a teacher at St John Fisher when my wife was a pupil back in the 70's and then again when all of my four children went through the school. He managed to encourage one of my sons to play – although not in the league, but even at 27 he still likes a game and played at University. It was around the early 2000's that I actually played with Max at St John Fisher along with Andy Cousins, still playing today for SJF A, and his stepson James Pearce. We played on the balcony overlooking the main sports hall and many a time the ball had to be retrieved from the bemused badminton players looking up from below.
Max was always encouraging pupils to take up the sport and has brought many juniors through from humble starts to becoming excellent players. In the recent past, brother's Dan and Tom Bouchard and now Sammy and Theo Kelly, what is it about brothers? Dan Bouchard is now at Bristol University and President of their Table Tennis Society - Max's influence spreading throughout the country.
Playing, coaching and encouraging are only part of what Max does, he really does give up so much of his time for them, acting as a taxi service, being there at weekends to attend tournaments and coaching courses. He's involved in the North Yorkshire Schools Tournament and of course as mentioned earlier a dedicated HTTA committee member.
It's people like Max that have helped HTTA to flourish and importantly support and develop the junior players that we see today playing throughout the five divisions. Max just keeps on giving and long may he continue to do so and once again I'm sure you will all join with me in congratulating Max on this well deserved award.
Max, you really are a star.

Picnic at the Lake
I think I got a big over excited this morning about getting the day started. Not only did the girls wake up an hour earlier than normal this morning, which threw off the "flow" of the morning. I was also aiming to go to an earlier storytime than usual. I get us going and out the door, thinking I'm running late when I drive up to the library and see no other cars in the parking lot. Then I noticed that I got there thirty minutes early. I let the girls out of their carseat and they played in the back of the van for a while, which they thought was pretty darn fun. Something different.
Storytime went really well with both girls participating more and more. They actually sat in the front row today which really excited me. The letter of the week was the letter O for Out of the Oven. The stories were about gingerbread cookies, pizza and owls. I love our storytime program, but their letter of the week don't match up too well with the stories a lot of the times. From library we drove over to pick up my mom and Chris for our lake picnic.
Mom and Chris had found this perfect little spot just last weekend and Mom wanted to share it with the girls. She wasn't kidding, the park was very close to her house. The girls were excited to see a new park. We played, ate and splashed the early afternoon away. By the time we left the girls were almost falling asleep in the car. It was a very fun morning!

To view your weekly starcast, click your astrological sign
Starcast for the week beginning November 15th, 2017
ARIES [Mar 21 - Apr 19]
Make love, not war this week Aries. Your ruler Mars is traveling through your opposite sign of Libra, and you are reminded of how much energy it takes to be angry or to hold in unwanted emotion. Mars moves into a productive position to the Nodes, those symbols connecting you to your past and your future, helping you put your energy in just the right places, to manifest more heavenly healing progress in your life with less stress and strife. When you give love, more love is naturally replaced to double the supply in your Soul. The Gods can't wait to replenish acts of kindness and generosity for you reap what you sow, it is as simple as that. A New Moon in Scorpio on Saturday, Nov.18, opens doors for you to go deeper in your intimate connections and to experience more Soul and less surface, which proves to be what you need to in order to experience more value and meaning in your relationships. You make memories that will leave an imprint this weekend, memories that signify a catalyst in your growth within and with another.
Once you can answer the question 'why am I here?' , the way forward becomes a living, breathing, breeze!
TAURUS [Apr 20 - May 21]
We initiated this week with your ruler Venus in Scorpio merged with wisdom holder Jupiter in your house of relationships, representing an open door to expand upon where you have been with any connection that you cherish. It holds energy for honest outpouring and for speaking the truth of the depths of feeling content living within you. Venus continues on and follows with a highly favorable angle to Neptune in Pisces, her higher octave, on Thursday, Nov. 16, helping you to heal what has come before, or encouraging a rise in elevation in how you are relating in every way. This week helps you envision the bigger picture, helping you make changes in the moment to improve where you can clearly see something is going. Mercury, the planet of communication, also helps you enter dialogues with ease that allow you to directly address matters of the heart.
This week is about bonding and remembering that nothing matters more than nurturing the love that is present in your life. If you do, you will feel it triple in size!
GEMINI [May 22 - Jun 21]
With Saturn still traveling at the tail end of your opposite sign of Sagittarius, your confidence may not have been operating at an all time high. In fact, Saturn can test the Soul in spades and dish out plenty of pieces of humble feeling pie. However, your ruler Mercury is in Sagittarius as well but forming effortless angles to the Nodes, the symbols that connect to your past and your future, and gains some energetic muscle by teaming up with Mars in Libra this weekend, just about guaranteeing that you recover the full strength of your stride. A New Moon in Scorpio on Saturday, Nov. 18, helps you refine and recover some vital pieces of your truth where you feel you had lost your way, and with Venus rising up to meet Neptune prior to the weekend, you are going to let yourself off the hook so you can access some self love without condition again. It's about feeling through to your own depths, forgiving those dark shadowy corners where you are afraid to look, and emerging more weightless because of an inner sweep of anything that is not serving you. As we pull into next week, Venus combines with Pluto in your house of the Soul to validate the progress you are soon to make.
A well-earned reward is well on its way!
CANCER [Jun 22 - Jul 22]
A New Moon in fellow water sign Scorpio pulls you into your power center on Saturday, Nov. 18, and has your heart's door swinging not only wide open but feeling deeper than deep. Abundant Jupiter and loving Venus are also together in Scorpio and forming a progressive angle of support to Neptune in Pisces to help you reach for the ideal and in some cases get it. When you can see the longer term vision of anything, it helps you become more effective in your choices in any given moment, so it will help you attach less to some things now, knowing where the road is leading. With Mars in Libra in your house of home and the emotional body, there will be a focus on either the literal physical home and the needs within that space or the inner home within yourself, whereby you are feeling every little nuance of all your emotions in full. It may also be that family is pulling on you like taffy. The energy is big and full of feeling potential, but it is a wave you are used to swimming right in the center of. Reach higher for help if overwhelm lands at the threshold of your inner door. There is more than enough guidance and invisible support to pull from on high.
Just say the word!
LEO [Jul 23 - Aug 22]
With generous Jupiter traveling together with Venus in your house of home and the feeling body, this reflects the potential for emotional abundance, where your heart can experience the depths of its total loving nature, but also stretch beyond your wildest dreams. Jupiter in Scorpio will expose the truth of anything so you know exactly what you are dealing with; honesty gets you to the root of understanding. Loving Venus forms an elevating angle to her higher octave Neptune on Thursday, Nov.16, to offer either a healing from the past or a love taken to a higher realm of expression. A New Moon in Scorpio in this same sector follows on Saturday, Nov. 18, to grant you a new feeling start or a new energy within the home that benefits you long term, financially or otherwise, whether you are expanding your space or somehow enhancing what you have.
The greatest benefit with this trend however is the change within your Soul that may feel to occur, for once the emotions shift, life can have a way of taking on a whole new trajectory and deep new meaning!
VIRGO [Aug 23 - Sep 22]
There is tremendous power in expressing your divine self this week Virgo. Prosperous Jupiter and loving Venus have just joined in your house of communication, and they are working together to bring out the very best in you with the help of Neptune's magic in the air. There is tremendous influence in being honest and showing up just as you are, for there is a pure beauty in simply being you, yes even with all your flaws. We all have flaws, and yet you have a way of turning something that may have once felt like a weakness and using it to a miraculous advantage .Your ruler Mercury is in charismatic Sagittarius and progressively connecting with undeniable strength to the Nodes this weekend, those symbols that connect to your past and your future, stitching your heart to your sleeve. You find and feel deep relief in expressing your authenticity and you discover others highly attracted to your presence as a result. A New Moon in Scorpio on Saturday, Nov.18, will speak feeling volumes in terms of next steps, unveiling pearls of truth regarding what something is worth so you know how to best invest your vital life force moving forward. On top of that, key conversations hold the key to this unfolding.
Tune all the way IN and the nature of how you feel will indeed reveal all!
LIBRA [Sep 23 - Oct 23]
There is no room for participating in life on the surface or simply making choices to preserve the appearance of harmony. Your ruler Venus is in bottom line Scorpio and has recently joined Jupiter to show you the truth of what's on the table. If you have an opportunity to ask for the entire ranch, why would you only request a few horses? Playing so only others benefit will not help you much, you are worth what is about to be offered and then some so act as if your known value is an 'all or nothing' deal. Mars is also in your sign which gives you strong energetic leverage and he combines with a favorable force to the Nodes, those symbols that connect to your past and your future, increasing your chances for things to go your way. Your ruler Venus partners with her higher octave Neptune on Thursday, Nov. 6, to help you reach for the stars and a New moon in Scorpio on Saturday, Nov. 18, opens new financial doors that may very well lead to a greater personal balance in this regard.
This week, events energize a more emotionally robust feeling within leading to a leap of courage that frees the fear and empowers you into new lands of bolder living!
SCORPIO [Oct 24 - Nov 21]
You know it when you feel it. This is the pure and unparalleled strength of your radar. Like no others sign, you are hard wired to know the truth of anything simply by interfacing with it. The cosmic sky has your inner homing device at an all time high now Scorpio, with wise Jupiter in your sign as well as Venus, you could find your way into or all the way out of anything you set your mind to. Venus also recruits even a higher pair of eyes to assist you on your journey as she aligns in heavenly ways to Neptune in Pisces on Thursday, Nov. 16. If that wasn't enough, a New Moon in your sign on Saturday, Nov. 18, initiates a new feeling beginning and sets the stage for a launch point into a new twelve year chapter in your life. It all started when Jupiter entered your sign in October, but certain pieces of your past were still culminating and between now and the end of the year, that rocket will be ready to leave the ground. You negotiate well too if need be with financial dealings as Mercury grants you with some clever clout and recruits Mars to help you pull a rabbit out of the hat. Your body will be reminding you of the wisdom it carries more than ever now, so don't fog up your path by overthinking a thing.
If you feel it, follow it!
SAGITTARIUS [Nov 22 - Dec 21]
Step by step you have been working your way there, the way toward a life-changing, yet more secure future. The feeling of true security does not manifest in the material world. I am speaking more about the timeless form that flows within those emotional pathways. A secure emotional body serves as a springboard for the Soul to escalate into more evolved stratospheres. The way to true Soul security is a result of making conscious choices that you know with every fiber of your being will serve you in the end. They may be difficult upon entry, they may even require more from you than you believe you have. But you know it's a step you must take, even if you don't even know why you must take it. Your ruler Jupiter is in penetrating Scorpio, and his current travels could not be speaking more deeply or directly to you. With Venus also in Scorpio as well as a New Moon on Saturday, Nov. 18, your inner world and awareness of the hereafter is present and total. Everything is pulling you deep within and beyond. Fortunately, with Mercury in your sign aligning with ease to Mars in your house of objectivity, you will be able to see into your life with an open-minded awareness that does not allow you to drown too far into the deep.
Your greatest gift however, is that your tribe, whether here or on the other side, are fully present to help you usher in a personal revolutionary change!
CAPRICORN [Dec 22 - Jan 19]
Your ruler Saturn finishes his highly favorable trine to Uranus this month, but you will still benefit in varying degrees from this energy for the next year. Saturn as well as Uranus will exit fire signs and enter earth signs, starting with Saturn coming home to Capricorn just before Christmas. We all have a desire for growth to forever become us and for the good times to never leave us. I am reminded of lyrics by Pink where she sings these sentiments, "Have you ever held your breath and asked yourself, will it ever get better than tonight?" Of course it will. If you fear these trends have passed you by, worry not, something profound has been set in motion that may just take a little more time to tenderize and transpire. Jupiter encourages more changes as he travels through Scorpio with Venus in your house of breakthroughs, while a New Moon in Scorpio on Saturday, Nov. 18, shows you a thing or two in terms of how fast something can bend for the better. Mars and Mercury connect to show you something that was hidden that could help you in your career pursuits, and if you are a spiritual seeker, these symbols pay dividends for your time and dedication at the alter. Messages are delivered on the heels of your efforts. Go there and be guided.
Where else could you possibly find answers to the questions that your Soul seeks?
AQUARIUS [Jan 20 - Feb 19]
You've still got the energetic goods Aquarius, to secure something you have long sought after, as long as it is something that will propel you forward in your evolution. We don't always know what's good for us but the universe does have a way of letting us know when we are on or off track. It is next to impossible now for you to wander too far off course, for with Saturn, the planet of stability still forming a rare and secure angle of support to your ruler Uranus this month, you've got more outer planetary pull than you may know what to do with. Action Mars is also in fellow air sign Libra and positioning himself well to help you drive a desire forward in the coming week. A New Moon in Scorpio in your house of commitments and career helps you launch something deeply meaningful to your Soul and with Jupiter and Venus up at the top of your chart as well, there appears to be absolutely nothing in the way of you manifesting it. Your novel ideas have others joining your cause or jumping on your brilliant bandwagon.
If you need to sell yourself, now is the time!
PISCES [Feb 19 - Mar 20]
Lord knows you know how to love. You would rather "love a little more and think a little less" and the world would be far better off if it followed in your footsteps. You love with all you have, to the point of sacrificing your own needs for the sake of another. You are simply designed to give selflessly and you jump at the chance to rescue someone if you feel there is a need. The issue becomes not being able to recognize someone who can spin a good story. With Jupiter and Venus in fellow water sign Scorpio also harmonizing magically with your ruler Neptune in your sign, you've got the Gods pulling out all the stops to make certain that you see someone clearly, even if someone else has to come to your rescue before the spider finishes the web. If you become off course at all, you can be sure that your 'peeps' will be showing up to remind you of the path that better suits you and won't create an unwanted return experience of the past. A New Moon on Saturday, Nov, 18, in your house of truth is also helping to hone your emotional radar to equal a signal with stunning clarify and reception. Your are positively being guided by forces far beyond realms you can readily access, although you will feel the power of their magnetism working to direct you into waters of your highest good.
All it takes is to recognize the signs. Once you do, the laughter of the obvious will follow!

The importance of implementing self-management support (SMS) is now widely accepted, but questions remain as to how. In 2015, we facilitated the implementation of an interprofessional model of SMS (Bridges Self-Management) for people with complex multiple long-term conditions through community rehabilitation and social care services in one South East England locality. Over 90 professionals and support workers from this workforce received interprofessional training to integrate SMS into their care and rehabilitation interactions. This gave an opportunity to explore how SMS can be implemented in practice. We conducted a mixed-methods study with unequal weighting (qualitative emphasis), concurrent timing and embedded design. Staff provided written feedback and case reflections, participated in group discussions and completed a survey of self-management beliefs and attitudes. We recruited a convenience sample of ten service users and conducted qualitative interviews and standardised questionnaires. Findings showed that staff appreciated and benefited from the interprofessional learning environment. Staff reported changes in their interactions with service users and colleagues and had gained knowledge and confidence to support individuals to self-manage. Data also highlighted the need to facilitate SMS practice at the level of service organisation. Service user data illustrated the impact of interactions with staff, and how SMS had increased service users' confidence and encouraged different skills to manage life with their conditions. This project has shown how multi-agency community teams can benefit from interprofessional training to enhance SMS for people living with long-term conditions, build a shared understanding of SMS, and integrate effective SMS strategies into everyday practices.

Letters to the Editor
UC, deputy parking, Common Core, aid-in-dying
Affordable education
Re "Brown and UC chief go one on one" (Page A1, Jan. 22): Kudos to Gov. Jerry Brown and UC President Janet Napolitano for exploring other means besides increased taxpayer funding or raising tuition fees on already overburdened students. It would be very interesting to see what the wages and benefits for all UC administration staff and UC faculty were per UC student in 1984 vs. what they were in 2014.
It would also be interesting to know what both the UC administration staff per student and the faculty per student ratios were in 1984 vs. what it was in 2014. I am guessing these statistics would prove the governor's argument that the model probably needs to be modified and is unsustainable in its current state.
Good luck, Governor. Our children's affordable education depends on it.
– Bruce Wirt, Fair Oaks
UC isn't a drive-thru McDonald's
As a student, it's hard to accept any sort of tuition hikes, but I can say that I understand where UC President Napolitano is coming from. The UC system is renowned worldwide as a prime example of a public higher education system, and it would be naive to say that money doesn't play a huge role in its prestige and success.
Gov. Brown's proposal to increase online classes and fast-track degrees, while financially conservative, goes completely against the mission of the UC system to produce innovative leaders in the world. The system is not there to hand out degrees to unprepared students who are being cheated out of a world-class education which they have slaved to receive. Brown is definitely in a corner on this issue, and while he doesn't seem inclined to budge, maybe it's time the governor takes some yoga classes and learns the meaning of flexibility.
– Miguel Lepe, Sacramento
Deputy's parking violation
Re "Sheriff probes deputy's parking" (Our Region, Jan. 22): Thank you for reporting the "probe" allegedly underway regarding the deputy parking in a handicapped spot while getting snacks from a convenience store.
Your reporter got some nice lip service from Undersheriff Lewis, but has anyone asked whether the deputy will be cited? Also, what is there to "probe"? Either the deputy was responding to an emergency situation or she wasn't. This "probe" sounds like another investigation whose conclusion will either never be reached or never be announced.
While it is especially offensive to use up a space intended for our handicapped citizens, all one has to do is drop by a courthouse anywhere in the area and see law enforcement vehicles using red zones as their personal, designated parking places. I suggest this "the law applies to everyone but us" mentality is one of the reasons law enforcement is finding (to its shock) that it is not universally held in the same high regard as it regards itself.
Citing this deputy, if the parking turns out to be unjustified, would send an unmistakable and needed message to the troops.
– Ed Jaszewski, Sacramento
Friend predicts more of same
A friend of mine claims to be a psychic. He predicts that the deputy will be given a slap on the wrist, the sheriff's office will spin it as some great victory for police oversight and the local media will cover whatever the sheriff's office releases without question. He further predicts that for the next six months or so, sheriff's deputies will be careful about displaying their arrogance, but after that, things will return to normal. I hope you will continue to report on this matter so I can see if my friend's predictions are accurate.
– Gary Fitzgerald, Carmichael
Disabled parking for a snack stop?
Really? A deputy for 27 years, and she still thinks she is "allowed to get breaks"?
I find her attitude arrogant and selfish, as well as against the law. She deserves a huge ticket (which is what Joe Citizen would get), or, as stated, if she violated code (which is clear), then she should pay the consequences and get fired.
– Irene Stadt, Carmichael
Real test of Common Core
Re "The real test of Common Core is about to begin" (Editorials, Jan. 18): The real test of Common Core has little to do with the content, everything to do with the process. Teach academic process in the abstract first and every child, every teacher will recognize his own native thinking, his own power of intellect, thus neither students nor teachers need be "managed out."
If we would salvage the precious resources of children and teachers waiting for common sense to prevail, then Common Core will trade rigor for vigor, and kids who know the process from the crib will teach adults who have forgotten.
– Bernard Allen Goldberg, Sacramento
Death with dignity
Re "'Death with dignity' backed" (Capitol & California, Jan. 22): If we have a choice, there are few, if any, decisions made in this life that are more important than how we end it. Sens. Lois Wolk and Bill Monning deserve our gratitude for introducing SB 128 to stop the criminalization of aid-in-dying. No one should be allowed to make this decision for us, let alone leave our family to face the legal consequences under present law. And no religious organization or disability activist or medical association should be able to obstruct this compassionate choice. Safeguards are written into this legislation to guard against abuses. If the Legislature fails to act, the result will be a ballot initiative, and this time it will pass.
– William Steele, Nevada City
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
The only absolutes in life are death and taxes, and the government wants to regulate both.

Why yes, I am currently reading Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States, thank you for asking…
The brisk momentum of The Post mirrors the breakneck pace in which the film, director Steven Spielberg's latest (written by Elizabeth Hannah and Josh Singer), was produced. The movie Spielberg had finished production on prior to starting The Post, Ready Player One, isn't even in theaters yet. The film, depicting the then-fledgling Washington Post's reporting on the Pentagon Papers, is made of momentum and motivation. It is very intently put together with a purpose, to tell a story Spielberg wanted told right this second.
In a time in which the U.S. Presidency and the press are constantly under scrutiny by the public and each other, The Post demands we question the nature of those institutions, how they interact with one another and how they interact with and are controlled by individuals.
True to life or not, the 1970's Washington presented in Spielberg's film is one coming out of a golden age of sorts, a city in which the press and the Presidency hang out at dinner parties and display photographs of each other on their respective mantles. And it was good. Good for the Presidency. Good for the press. The pubic? What public?
But with the discovery of the Pentagon Papers, a classified Department of Defense study on the involvement of the United States in Vietnam, that golden age is not only shattered, but retroactively tainted all together. The veil is lifted and over the course of the film both institutions are indicted for abusing their powers, for allowing the institutions they represent to become all too synonymous with their own person.
The Washington Post is the press, it's a newspaper, but it's also publisher Katherine Graham (Meryl Streep), whose family has run the paper for decades.
The Presidency is an executive office, the Commander in Chief, but it's also Richard Nixon (some guy).
The Post sees the Presidency and the press at war with one another even as their respective figureheads are at warring with the traditional notions of the concepts they embody. Where does the human stop and the institution begin? When do relationships across those institutions stop being fodder for conversations at dinner parties and start actively disadvantaging the public those institutions are put in power to serve?
This is film as a weapon, or at least film as a tool. Spielberg has created something with purpose, something lean and efficient, largely free of the excessive drama or frills one might embellish when parodying the director. This is a movie aimed at here and now and you can feel that vitality in its camerawork, in its dialogue, in the performances of Streep, Tom Hanks, Bob Odenkirk and the rest of the robust cast. The energy and momentum of the film's production is mirrored time and time again in many facets of the film as it chugs along at a clip, decisive, emboldened, destination determined. You. It's come for you. It's made for you. You right now. It's made to tell you that when institutions go to war it's not a matter of taking sides and it's not a matter of observing the barrages and salvos with a grain of salt. When institutions go to war you have to ask yourself why. What is to be gained, what is to be lost, and what do those institutions seek to get from you? Money? Ignorance? Complacency? Outrage?
The Post will undoubtedly be dismissed by some as partisan propaganda. While it examines the institutions of the Presidency and the press, it pretty definitively takes the side of the press, but questioning the motivations of the establishments we imbue with power is important regardless of affiliations, particularly in an age where the idea of what those establishments are is in flux.
Spielberg's sense of purpose with The Post has yielded perhaps his greatest film since Saving Private Ryan.
No, you've been misspelling it "Stephen" for literally the entire time you've had a blog and so you had to go back and correct the spelling in all of your blog posts since 2013 (four).

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Immersion Corporation (NAS: IMMR) , the leading developer and licensor of touch feedback technology, has released the Haptic Muse effect preview app on Google Play as part of the company's Haptic SDK developer tool kit.

The Haptic Muse app invites developers into a haptic museum with galleries built around common gaming use cases, like sports, transportation, combat and casinos. As developers browse through the museum, they can select items on display, and then watch, feel and hear them come to life. The effect library significantly reduces integration time by allowing developers to select from a comprehensive list of effects designed to enhance a wide range of gaming environments.
"One of the most powerful tools in the Immersion Haptic SDK is our library of 124 pre-designed haptic effects," explains Suzanne Nguyen, Director of Developer Marketing at Immersion. "We designed the Haptic Muse app as a way to provide both experienced and new game developers with a fun, interactive tool to assess which tactile effects work best for their games as well as to illustrate the capabilities of integrating video, audio and haptics."
SEGA® of America uses Immersion's Haptic SDK in their Sonic The Hedgehog 4™ Episode II and Sonic CD™ titles, available on Google Play. Utilizing effects from Immersion's pre-designed library, SEGA®'s development teams incorporated haptics to simulate the crescendo as Sonic powers up and the jolt as he hits the launch pad and soars into the air.
"SEGA® of America makes user-friendly, engaging games that deliver an engrossing entertainment experience for the mobile gamer," explains SEGA of America's Director of Digital Business Development, David Zemke. "The Immersion Haptic SDK allows us to use haptics as a design tool, to enhance game play and communicate with our players through the sense of touch."

I apologize if I have posted this in the wrong forum. How do I tell Chrome to let me use the Kedit editor - and not Chrome's tool - that I want to use to display and edit HTML source? In Firefox, I simply go to About:Config, set view_source.editor.external to true and put Kedit's location on my disk as the string value in view_source.editor.path.
I don't know where the equivalent settings are in Chrome, or if Chrome even gives the user that ability. FF keeps having a problem with the Media Player and half the time doesn't play it on my main PC, so I need to do my developing/editing in Chrome, where the Player works.
Any assistance with this will be most appreciated.
Thank you.
I'm not very knowledgeable in Chrome's settings, but I googled a little and it seems there is no way. Some people suggest looking for an extension but no one seems to find one so...

Why People Think Captain Marvel Is A Man
- Posted on: December 4, 2018
- By: Mat Elfring
- With: 0 Comments
The second trailer for Captain Marvel is here and while we all enjoyed her Skrull-punching antics in the latest video, many people are confused as to who this character is. More specifically, some folks are not sure why she's a woman. To the average person who isn't well-versed in comic book lore, this can all be a little confusing. Don't worry, we'll get you up to date and explain it all as quickly as possible.
First are foremost, comic book continuity is confusing and full of plot holes and errors. Keeping track of what's gone down in stories for the past 80 years or so can be quite the task. However, Captain Marvel at Marvel Comics is a women and has been for the past six years, and the character behind the mask–Carol Danvers–has been a part of the collective comic book universe for 50 years now. When Danvers took on the role of Captain Marvel, it made the character relevant again, which it hadn't been for 30 years or so.
So let's talk Captain Marvel. There are three main characters using this name. The first is DC Comics' Captain Marvel–who goes by the name Shazam now. He's actually a young boy named Billy Batson who becomes a superpowered adult when he yells "Shazam." He's the DC hero in the red suit with a giant yellow lightning bolt on his chest. Zachary Levi will be playing the character on the big screen on April 5, 2019.
Then, there's Marvel's first Captain Marvel, Mar-Vell. He was the captain of a Kree militia and a protector of the universe. Mar-Vell died in 1978 after inhaling poisonous gas and getting terminal cancer. He's been resurrected a few times, and still shows up every now and again but he hasn't been a heavy hitter for decades.
So that leaves us with Carol Danvers, the current Captain Marvel. Throughout the years, many people of various sexes and races–both alien and human–have fought under this mantle, but Danvers was the person that made this character relevant again. If you grew up in the '90s and watched the X-Men cartoon, you know who this character is. In the realm of X-Men: The Animated Series as well as comic book canon, Rogue got her super-strength and flight by sucking the life out of Ms. Marvel, Carol Danvers. However, Danvers eventually recovered, and years later, after the Avengers vs. X-Men storyline, she took on the mantle of Captain Marvel. Her backstory is wildly confusing, as is almost every cosmic character from Marvel's silver age. However, her origin is getting a little bit of a clean up in the new movie.
You can learn more about the character by checking out her history video above to see just how insane it is or wait until Captain Marvel hits theaters on March 8, 2019.

Congratulations on making the decision to participate in the ONLC Meet the Funders. This is a unique opportunity for ONLC participants and the preparation you do before the conference will have a tremendous impact on your experience.
- Will the session be productive?
- Will you leave the session with knowledge that you didn't have before you arrived?
- Will you feel as if you represented your organization well?
Come prepared and the answer will be yes!
Meet the Funders Structure
Foundation representatives will be seated at tables with a limited number of seats around them. Choose the first foundation you would like to meet and have a seat. The ONLC Meet the Funders moderator will begin the first 20 minute round. The foundation representative will make a very brief statement about their foundation, their grant process and their priorities. This should be a review for you if you have done your research. The foundation representative will then answer questions. Please have concise questions prepared as time is limited and everyone at the table deserves a chance to ask a question. The generally accepted etiquette is that organizations refrain from pitching their particular organization or particular proposals to funders. Rather, this is a time to hear from funders, note what they stress about their organization's giving program, and to ask clarifying questions. The moderator will announce when the round is over and it will then be time to move to another table. To maintain the flow of these sessions, it is imperative that you move on and choose a new foundation for each round. There will be time to visit three foundations during each Meet the Funders session.
Space is limited and available on a first come basis.
Tips and Information for Success
Research the foundations – Use the website! The ONLC website's "Participating Foundations" page is an incredible resource. There are short descriptions and links to information pages on each of the foundations.
Know the foundation's funding priorities – For example, it would not be a productive use of anyone's time at your table to ask questions about an environmental project if the foundation only funds the arts.
Have a plan before the session begins – The Meet the Funders session schedules will be available on the website in April as well in the conference guide you will receive at registration. Be prepared. Know the foundation reps you hope to see. The session changes move quickly.
"Meet the Funders" sessions are designed to gather information – Ask questions that aren't already answered on the foundation's website. Be clear and concise with your questions. Be respectful of your colleagues and allow everyone an opportunity to engage with the representative.
Can you make an informative, effective, and concise "elevator pitch" in 60 seconds? – The "Meet the Funders" sessions are designed to gather information and make face-to-face contact. If you have an opportunity to continue the conversation with a foundation representative during lunch, between sessions, or at the NAO/RVNN Reception, how will you quickly and clearly describe your organization? Prepare your pitch in advance and practice it.
Bring business cards and printed information – Whether you have the opportunity to make your pitch or not, sharing your business card and printed information about your organization is a great way to network.
If you have questions, please feel free to ask us using the contact form. Above all else – be prepared!
We look forward to seeing you at Meet the Funders.

And sometimes she will nap on the floor so as to be close with me…. 🙂
Daddy will be around to play with me for the weekends…. Yipee!!
I just hope this annoying exaaaams will be over as soon as possible….
