The Engineers 5-a-side football team has won the University of Southampton's intra-mural competition. The team played Connaught Veterans FC in a hard fought final on the 13th March, and were crowned overall tournament winners with a 6-2 victory.
The game was played at 12 0'clock on the indoor football pitch within the student union building, with two fast-paced 15 minutes halves making up the final.
At half time, Engineers had made a two goal lead. They looked dangerous throughout, with many athletic saves having to be made by the Connaught Vets goalkeeper to keep them in the game. In the second half, the Engineers continued as they began, as they added another goal to the tally, but Connaught Vets were not quite done yet, as two goals hinted at a late resurgence, with the score at 3-2.
However, this was not to be, as the Engineers bounced back with three goals in quick succession to take their lead to a convincing 6-2 final score.
Engineers are therefore crowned 5-a-side football Intra Mural champions for the 2011-12 winter season.
The Engineers will be entering the Summer league in an attempt to retain their small-sided football champions title.
The league is run yearly by the Jubilee Sports centre, with games being played from November in a league format, from which the top teams continue into the knockout stages.
Subscription for the Summer 6-a-side league is now open until the 16th March, so head to www.sportrec.soton.ac.uk for more details on this and other sport leagues.

Health Promotion Practice
Power and Empowerment
- Glenn Laverack - University of Southern Denmark, UK
'The author draws on a wealth of personal experiences in the field, giving the book both readability and credibility. Good examples from different international contexts, illustrated in relevant case studies, let the reader relate theory to practice and bring the concepts to life. The author takes the central thrust of health promotion for the past few decades and unravels it for the reader in a clear, comprehensive way' - Health Matters
In health promotion, the concept of power can be defined as the ability to create or resist change, and this is an important foundation for individual and community health. By enabling people to empower themselves, health promoters can provide the capacity for the individual or community to change their lives and their living conditions, and therefore their health. Health Promotion Practice explores the issue of how such an approach to health promotion practice can improve a community's success towards achieving healthier conditions through its own actions.
Placing empowerment at the heart of health promotion practice, and offering advice for health promoters who accept the challenge to work in such a way, Health Promotion Practice defines key concepts of health, health promotion and community empowerment. It also:
Introduces readers to a 'social' model of health promotion practice, one that attempts to get at the underlying social determinants of disease;
Helps readers understand the importance of power relations and their transformation in this practice;
Introduces readers to a new `community capacity-building' approach to plan,
implement and evaluate health promotion programmes.
Health Promotion Practice is an invaluable resource to students and practitioners of health promotion who want to help empower the communities that they work with.

Volunteer Dundee has been successful in gaining £125,000 of funding as part of a £2 million Big Lottery Fund cash boost for Scottish community projects.
The cash will help to expand Volunteer Dundee's existing projects which are helping to tackle loneliness in the local community. The projects cover both telephone and face-to-face befriending, carried out by a team of trained volunteers, recruited and supported by Volunteer Dundee. 'Morning Call', 'Blether Buddies', 'Sources of Support' and DIAL OP are all designed to facilitate meaningful contact between volunteers and individuals in the local community, in an effort to alleviate loneliness.
Volunteer Dundee's Chief Executive Eric Knox said:
"We are absolutely delighted that the Big Lottery are again giving their support to vulnerable people in Dundee. Dundee Health and Social Care Partnership have supported getting these services established over the last few years. With their continuing support and this new Lottery funding we are hoping to reach over 350 people supported by 40 volunteers."
"A bond of genuine warmth forms between these individuals… [involved in the projects]. It's about reaching out, making that contact and building up a relationship. It's all about being a caring community."
The news comes as headlines about the growing problem of loneliness among both young and old continue to dominate the media; concerns over the prominence of loneliness in Scotland has prompted the Scottish Government to launch a consultation on how best to tackle loneliness.
You can read more about Volunteer Dundee's news here.
The Projects
DIAL-OP is an information helpline, available to anyone in the Dundee area, and helps to keep the people of Dundee informed, connected, safe and valued members of the local community.
The Blether Buddies project offers friendship to isolated and lonely people in Dundee. Weekly calls of around thirty minutes are provided by trained volunteers to help alleviate loneliness.
Morning Call is a free outreach telephone service that aims to provide reassurance and connectivity to people who are vulnerable or isolated. Volunteers offer a short, scheduled, morning call to check on people's well-being and welfare.

Wills are valuable documents whether the testator intends to pass on a home, important family heirlooms or personal items of great value. While the role that a will plays in passing on physical assets is quite clear, many people in California are less certain about how their digital assets fit in. Because of licensing and terms of service, estate planning must be carefully utilized for digital property.
Much of what people own now exists in a purely electronic form. From music to digital books and electronic copies of movies, assets now exist in the cloud just as much as they do in the real world. However, many of these digital assets are not fully owned by users, and are instead licensed for their personal use. This prevents most people from transferring a digital book from their electronic reader upon their death. In many instances a digital asset will simply disappear even if otherwise outlined in a will.
This can be incredibly disconcerting for most people in California, as a significant amount of money is often spent on accessing these digital goods. Trusts typically cannot solve this problem, either, as a trust created to access electronic products would likely only allow for the trust -- and not an actual person -- to make use of them. One expert believes the best solution is to pass on login information and passwords through wills, or to bequeath the physical item that the digital assets are stored on, such as an e-reader or smart phone.
Estate planning for digital assets is still relatively new. This does not mean it is not as important or pressing as other aspects of an estate. Indeed, as digital assets can be relatively confusing for consumers to handle, it is important to address how they should be handled as early on in the process as possible.

The problem was related to the Xlfe's update manager icon which is shown in the system tray. This icon turns between gray and red to indicate available updates. I'm not sure what the exact name of this piece of software is, so if anyone knows, please add a tag to this post so people can find the solution if necessary.
It is this icon that hasn't been working for the past week. User 'Just's answer led me down the correct path, which was to issue 'pacman -Syy' in the admin command prompt. After running this command, the icon turned red and I received a notification that there were roughly 90 updates available.
So, problem solved.
I'm having the strangest issue that has occurred for one and a half weeks now. Whenever I login to my Xfce desktop, or if I open the "Software Updates" application, then there are no updates available.
This is strange because I haven't updated the computer during this period and I have grown accustomed to seeing updates available every 2-3 days or so. The lack of available updates seems odd. When I look at the package RSS feed from Arch side, they are constantly updated.
Does anyone know what could cause this behavior? I find it difficult to believe that there simply aren't any updates available or that no packages that are installed on my computer have updated in the past week and a half.
Can anyone recommend possible tools that I could use to determine the cause?
@hm_ Thanks for your reply and the instructions. While they don't quite solve the problem, they do give a few good ideas.
The root cause why I need a fixed-size disk image is so that I can follow the "Linux From Scratch" -guide. The idea is to build a working Linux instance on the disk image and then use VirtualBox to boot it.
I think I'll give the 'dd' command a try. I'm not sure if VirtualBox can boot the final disk image once it's ready, but at least I have something to keep me busy meanwhile
Hi all,
I'm having trouble creating a new fixed-size VirtualBox disk image. I can create a new virtual machine just fine, but I cannot create fixed-size disk images. Dynamic disk images work just fine. However, I need a fixed-size disk because I need to mount and manipulate this disk directly from the host.
Running the following command:
vboxmanage createhd --filename LFS.vdi --size 20000 --variant Fixed
gives me the following output:
0%... Progress state: VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR VBoxManage: error: Failed to create medium VBoxManage: error: Could not create the medium storage unit 'LFS.vdi'. VBoxManage: error: VHD: cannot set the file size for 'LFS.vdi' (VERR_INVALID_PARAMETER) VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR (0x80bb0004), component MediumWrap, interface IMedium VBoxManage: error: Context: "RTEXITCODE handleCreateMedium(HandlerArg*)" at line 450 of file VBoxManageDisk.cpp
The following applications and versions are in use:
- virtualBox, version 5.1.8-1
- virtualbox-guest-iso, version 5.1.8-1
- virtualbox-host-dkms, version 5.1.8-1
- linux, version 4.8.4-1
- linux-api-headers, version 4.7-1
- linux-headers, version 4.8.4-1
All applications are up-to-date and I have rebooted the host a few times to ensure that most recent updates are in effect.
Any and all help is welcome

Does the word career leave you with a sinking feeling?
I presented at the Business Woman's association last week and asked an open ended question about the image the word career evoked in people's minds. I was surprised to hear that it left some with a sinking and uncomfortable feeling. A corporate lawyer turned entrepreneur and an accountant running a successful business for more than 15 years found it hard to even think of an image – the word felt constraining, corporate and not really what they did. Why was this?
Definition of the word career
The career literature shows an evolution in our understanding of the word career over time from its early connotation as a job to a postmodern take that reflects a more holistic perspective. This shift is shared so beautifully by Vance Peavey, often credited with being the father of postmodern career psychology.
"In antiquity the word 'career' derived from the Latin carrus and referred to passage, course, or pathway, and to the wheeled vehicle known as chariot. In modern times the term career became embedded in the industrial vocabulary and meant profession or occupation. With the passing of the industrial age, the term career should be restored to its original meaning. The career that the postmodern should attend to is the pathway of her life - 'my life is my career.' To practice 'career counseling' is to help others seek answers to the question: How should I live my life?" http://www.sociodynamic-constructivist-counselling.com/quotations.html
It seems to me that the women who struggled with the word had purposefully chosen to chart a different path from a traditional corporate career, and work for them was a part of their broader lives.
So what, you might ask?
Read on as I believe in a world where the boundaries between work and life are blurred and many of us struggle to bring a sense of balance to our lives new ways of engaging with career questions are essential. Being able to see things in new ways creates new possibilities.
3 Coaching Tips
Next time you are thinking about your career and career advancement:
1. Ask yourself:
· Where am I choosing to spend my time and energy? For what purpose?
· What does this say about what is most important to me now?
· How does this align with who I want to be and what I truly value?
2. Pay attention to the answers and you may be surprised at what you start to learn about yourself.
3. What action can you take from your learning?
This approach requires you make sense of how you are choosing to live your life right now. Embraced in this post modern approach is the freedom to choose to dedicate your precious time to those things that matter most to you now; where you believe you can make your biggest contribution now. It invites you to see your life and career holistically. It offers flexibility and the satisfaction from knowing that you are owning and shaping your work and your life in personally meaningful ways and are not leaving this up to your company, society or others to decide what constitutes success or advancement for you.
For the sceptics and cynics out there, I did not say this is easy but it certainly is rewarding. In today's climate where nothing is certain, taking responsibility consciously is a proactive strategy.

#NeverAgain: An empty slogan that highlights a failure to build a strong nation
#NeverAgain, if they have streamlined the justice system. No, they didn't. In the Yellow Age, the undermining of the Supreme Court as an independent branch of government and a hallowed institution was complete and effective. Cases continue to be settled only after years and decades. Justice has become more selective — it is only available for the moneyed and the well-connected with the powers-that-be.
#NeverAgain, if they have raised the quality of politics. No, they didn't. In the Yellow Age, forward looking ideas are not important. For that matter, it is not about any idea; vision is alien. Instead, emphasis has been, with zest, on ad hominem. Cory set the pace — policies were discussed in the mahjong table. Cabinet positions are not about the best and the brightest; it is about KKK, more about cronies. Politics is removed from reality; they think they are playing a computer game.
#NeverAgain, if legislative agendas are about nation building. No, they ain't. Agendas are negotiated based on the amount of pork barrels. They are not shamed by being seen as voracious. It is bribery, alright. But they don't call it that. They call it by various names — fancy names, fancy programs, all fancy. It is a system institutionalized.
#NeverAgain, if they have stopped media killings. No, they didn't. PHL remains the most dangerous place for media practitioners outside of war zones like Iraq or Syria. They hate making things easy, so FOI can never be approved. Therefore, you know evil is being perpetuated for evil loves darkness. They minimize that massacres in the Yellow Age have been more organized and more premeditated. If #SAF44 was not premeditated, it was nevertheless an organized incompetence.
#NeverAgain, if they have improved the lives of 99% of Filipinos. No, they didn't. Among others, they ignored agriculture to pave the way for smuggling — forget about unemployment. You need jobs? Go abroad; never mind if this separates you from your family. We need your remittances to support the bloated government bureaucracy; never mind about the moral and social cost. We need to make the economic data look good, never mind if in reality it is a donut economy — empty in the middle.
#NeverAgain, if they have improved our standing and reputation in the international community. No, they didn't. We are now seen to be a stupid people because who does the world see in this archipelago? Stupid leaders. Singing talents, beauty queens, boxing champions wouldn't cover the fact that the country is now structured and operated like it was the 14th, 15th, 16th century Europe. Next move is to be like Africa. That to them is improvement because they didn't want to look like Latin America. No wonder, PHL is the basket case of Asia.
#NeverAgain, if they brought the country up to speed with the modern world. No, they didn't. Yellow Age is all about form; at its core is a decaying society — the worst. The worst is the corruption of the best. It is the Age, people no longer know what is good and bad because of all the propaganda coming from all directions. People remain confident because they maintain a faith, or superstitions, and faith could move mountains …somehow, one day. Forgotten is that intelligence is needed where and when those mountains could, or should, be moved.
#NeverAgain??? The Yellows should be the last to say this!!! If they still insist, then it is no longer about the search for truth. If they further insist, then it is no longer about objectivity, but about a smokescreen. They need to cover-up that they have done far worse. Traitors persist because they are very good in creating a bogeyman — they depend on this man, but will not admit it, because they cannot depend on themselves.
#NeverAgain? It is a very good propaganda. But, history, nature, struggles, destiny, karma… are not made because of propaganda. Acts or actions determine such things. So, they could repeat #NeverAgain all they want, but their acts, evil as they have been, determine what would be relevant or not in the end. It is obvious their words reverberate less and less.

Azure can bring the benefits of productivity, agility and decreased costs to your organisation, but like many things, realising the dream relies upon the preparation before you take the leap.
As an IT Services and Cloud Consultancy for medium to large enterprises in all sectors, we are aware that moving to cloud isn't a simple choice, especially in the public sector and NHS which have their own issues.
What we purport to do on the surface is the exactly the same as myriad other competitors do. We're in the IT business. It is sophisticated and complicated and most importantly what your information technology does is that it runs the key business and operational processes that run your business.
Moving to cloud is not a shortcut. Effective use of any type of cloud requires that all the 'traditional' IT disciplines as defined by ITIL and other best practice frameworks are in place and ideally automated. The good news is that most organisations will already have most of the required elements, which may just need to be re-architected or enhanced for cloud.

The 18-year-old from Tyne and Wear said: "Oh, who doesn't fancy Cheryl Cole? Come on!"
He hailed her as the "best mentor" a boy could have and said she was like a big sister to him throughout the competition.
"It was really good having somebody like that to go and talk to. She was really supportive and helpful with the song choices so it was really good," he said.
"She told me to just enjoy it and don't believe your own hype. She said that a lot. Enjoy your singing, because the moment you start believing your own hype, you lose the focus of the competition and it kind of ruins it.
"She teaches performance skills, different hand movements that are more effective. And she'll come on to the stage and say, 'Try this or try that' and it'll have more effect."
McElderry won by a landslide victory on Sunday night, beating rival Olly Murs to the £1 million recording contract.
He was helped by George Michael, who duetted with him on Saturday night.
Speaking about the musical direction he plans to take, McElderry said: "I would like to do a mixture of ballads, fast songs and cool music, like George Michael kind of music.
"I would just like to be a well-known artist, that's what I would like to hope for, and have a successful singing career."
His debut single, The Climb, is favourite for the Christmas number one but is threatened by an internet campaign urging people to spoil Simon Cowell' Christmas by sending Killing In The Name by Rage Against The Machine to the top of the chart.
A diplomatic McElderry said: "I haven't heard the song yet, but I just think it's healthy competition. Everyone's obviously battling for the top spot, so I'd just say good luck to them.
"That's like a dream come true, if I could get a Christmas number one. I'm crossing my fingers that it's giong to happen but whether or not it will, we'll see. It's a massive deal."


text: It never ceases to amaze me that people who've been dealt the harshest blows in life often seem to have the most grateful spirit. Maybe it's a quality common to mankind, but it seems we just need to be asked, invited to take a moment to reflect, and we will find something to be thankful for. For the second year in a row, I've worked on a Thanksgiving project to find out what the people I bump into on any given day are grateful for. Here is what I've learned.

This spring, to say the least, was a challenging one on the weather front. Not only was it cold, but we barely saw much sun and it sure rained a lot! We seriously thought we had to reschedule Sharlene & Andrew's engagement session as the forecast called for 100% chance of rain that day. Unfortunately, Sharlene & Andrew were traveling quite a bit from Vancouver to the Philippines and there was no alternative dates available to reschedule. So, we prayed and hoped for the best that day. That morning was absolutely miserable but literally by the time we started the session, the clouds parted and it remained dry for the rest of the day! Were we ever relieved!
Sharlene & Andrew plan to tie the knot in the Philippines and the couple intend on moving there permanently. Most of Sharlene's family live in Vancouver so we really wanted to capture some scenic shots of the city for her to remember her time here. I know she will miss her friends and family dearly!
Congratulations to two amazing people! Now that I've prepped them on how to pose, I'm sure they will know just what to do on their wedding day in Manila:)

CA Technologies Enables Logicalis UK to Deliver Flexible, Efficient, and Cost-effective Cloud Computing Services
Multiple CA Technologies Solutions Help Ensure the Delivery and Operational Performance of Logicalis UK's Cooperative Enterprise Cloud Service
May 03, 2011, 09:00 ET
ISLANDIA, N.Y. and SLOUGH, England, May 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that Logicalis UK, part of Logicalis, the international IT and Communications (ICT) solutions integrator, uses the company's IT management and automation solutions to manage the delivery and performance of its award-winning Cooperative Enterprise Cloud Service.
CA Technologies service automation, service assurance, and energy and sustainability management solutions are instrumental in Logicalis UK's ability to offer customers agile, low-risk, efficient and cost-effective cloud services.
Logicalis UK recently invested 7.3 million pounds in a new data center, which sits at the heart of its cloud-based offerings. The state-of-the-art facility is designed to offer high-density computing, with capacity for 2,500 virtual machines in a single rack. The Cooperative Enterprise Cloud Service, which offers private clouds hosted at its data center, dedicated on-site private clouds, Infrastructure-as-a-Service, and Application-as-a-Service, is built on Cisco's Unified Computing System (UCS), NetApp storage, and CA Technologies IT management tools. Logicalis selected the CA Technologies solutions for the company's product capabilities and expertise in managing complex cloud environments.
"Our aim is to offer customers cloud services that are aligned to their business needs, easy to understand, and involve minimal risk," said Chris Gabriel, marketing director, Logicalis UK. "This means using leading technologies and specifying service level agreements that can actually be met. CA Technologies expertise in developing, managing, and securing cloud environments helps enable our customers to take maximum advantage of this economical approach to IT service delivery while supporting our business growth."
"Logicalis UK is a great example of how a cloud provider can maximize the efficiencies of its cloud services with CA Technologies solutions to deliver the agility and performance that customers demand," said Dave Hansen, general manager, Enterprise Solutions and Cloud Management, CA Technologies. "We're proud of the success Logicalis UK has shown using Cisco UCS, NetApp and CA Technologies as the core of its cloud offering."
A dynamic, virtual, and automated environment
When the Cooperative Enterprise Cloud Service was launched, Logicalis UK needed to maximize its data center investment by achieving rapid customer adoption, consistent service levels and exceptional agility. By leveraging the stateless computing capabilities of Cisco UCS in tandem with CA Automation Suite for Data Centers, Logicalis UK is able to quickly provision customer cloud environments and transition workloads between virtual servers based on demand and capacity.
"Using CA Automation Suite for Data Centers to create an infrastructure that is inherently dynamic, virtual, and automated, we can move large corporate applications such as Oracle and SAP between servers in as little as seven minutes," noted Gabriel.
Assuring service quality
While CA Automation Suite for Data Centers enables rapid deployment and migration of workloads across the cloud infrastructure, CA Spectrum® Infrastructure Manager and CA eHealth® Performance Manager proactively manage the performance and availability of the service delivery infrastructure — and the traffic it delivers. The ability of these products to provide 24x7 infrastructure monitoring; automated alerts to potential performance problems; automated, model-based root cause analysis; and historical and real-time reporting helps Logicalis UK maintain high quality of service levels for customers.
Enhancing data center energy efficiency
Logicalis UK deployed CA ecoSoftware to help measure, manage and reduce the consumption of power in the data center. CA ecoSoftware enables Logicalis UK to collect and analyze data from points throughout the data center to provide detailed real-time insight into energy use and efficiency. It supplies status, alerting and management information to increase the reliability of operations. In addition, CA ecoSoftware helps enable Logicalis UK to provide customers with more accurate data center efficiency metrics and energy billings, both of which have become increasingly important when providing cloud computing services. CA ecoSoftware also helps Logicalis UK identify inefficient power use, which can significantly reduce unnecessary electricity costs, make better use of available power capacity, and mitigate the carbon footprint associated with data center operations.
"Data centers are massive power consumers, so it is vital that we do what we can to reduce energy usage and help our customers to do the same," added Gabriel. "The cloud has great potential for energy efficiency, but power still needs to be measured and managed. Customers also may have to comply with the UK's Carbon Reduction Commitment, so helping them with environmental governance is an important part of our cloud-based services. Having a partner like CA Technologies helps smooth this transition and minimize risk."

or…Happy Cinco de Mayo!
If I had to eat one food for the rest of my life, it would be tacos. I mean, instead of the saying "more than a fat kid loves cake!", mine would be, "more than Nicole loves tacos!". I've always told Nathan, if I'm ever in a bad mood there are three things you can do to make me happy: (1) bring me coffee, (2) show me photos of cute puppies, or (3) feed me tacos. He has managed the triple threat a couple of times. So, in honor of Cinco de Mayo (and my love of tacos), I've decided to share with you two things that are crucial to a successful Mexican meal: Tortillas & Margaritas.
First, tortillas:
Take all of your ingredients (masa, salt, oil, water) and mix them together in a mixing bowl. Form a ball. Wrap your dough in saran wrap and place in fridge for half an hour.
Once cooled, break off pieces of dough and form small balls. Use a tortilla press (like this one) to help form your tortillas. The amount of dough you use will determine how thick your tortillas are. We like pretty thick tortillas so we use a little more. If for some reason your tortillas break as you are forming them – don't worry! Just peel off the dough and reform it into a ball to be pressed again.
Pro tip: Cover your tortilla press in a cut plastic sandwich bag to help keep the dough from sticking!
While you are forming your dough, go ahead and heat up your skillet (medium-high heat). We use a cast iron skillet when making tortillas. Once you've made your first pressed tortilla, toss it in the skillet! You'll want each side to brown a bit, and you can use a spatula to flip it over, pancake style.
And that's it! Pretty easy, right?
Here's our homemade tortilla recipe (adapted from NYT Cooking):
My margarita recipe is renowned among our friends and it's a frequent request when we have friends from out of town. I hope you enjoy it too!
First, go ahead and get squeezing. If you've never made freshly squeezed lime juice before, here are a couple of tips:
What are the best ways to juice a lime (or any citrus)? Well, that's up to you. My favorites are a wooden hand juicer (like this one) or a hand-held citrus press (like this one). I typically will use both tools while juicing. The press gets pretty much everything, and the hand-held juicer gets everything thats left over.
Once you're finished juicing, you can put the juice aside or cover it with seran wrap and put it in the fridge. Be sure to save a lime or two for garnish.
Take your jalapeño and slice it. Set aside, we'll use this in a second.
Take your martini shaker, fill it up half-way with ice, and pour your ingredients in (tequila, lime juice, grand marnier, agave nectar). Shake, shake, shake!
Pour immediately and take a slice of your jalapeño and top your drink with it. Add a lime wedge for garnish, and serve!
Here's my recipe for Classic, Top-Shelf Margaritas:
(note: makes two margaritas)

SNPJ Wedding | Ashley + Chip
Ashley and Chip had a lovely fall wedding at SNPJ. The bride got ready at home with her family, good friends and adorable little dogs as witnesses. Pairing a lovely illusion laced sleeve dress with a long row of buttons to cowboy boots. Ashley and her bridesmaids also rocked denim jackets over formal wear which kept them warm and looked fantastic. The groom wore a camo vest, jeans, boots and a jacket.
With lots of DIY Wedding elements made by the bride. Shotgun shells (embracing the grooms passion for hunting), burlap centerpieces, painted pumpkins, brooch bouquets embracing her love of horses. And that cake!?! Genius...half came and half traditional white. And....what a fun dollar dash! The bride came out the winner by a slim margin...and her new husband lost the wager and stuck doing dishes. Hope he holds to it.

November tour
SO, I feel like I'm juggling a little more than usual - trying to get as much done as I can in the quieter moments of the day - those of you know Emily Joy (my youngest) though, will be aware that there aren't too many of those moments when she is around :)
One of the things I'm just starting to think through is the November tour with Brian Doerksen. I'm really, really looking forward to doing this!!! It's going to be across Canada, and then finish up with the CMS event in Seattle, WA.
As soon as I know the 'where's and the when's' I'll let you know.
In the meantime, I hope you're all doing great - and that the rhythm of this time of year is starting to take hold...

Bra-Dazzle 2016 - Headlights
Femfessionals Rochester put on an evening of fun to benefit the Breast Cancer Coalition of Rochester. Thanks to Auto Outlets USA for being the red carpet sponsor of the event and making this size Z bra possible. Last year we made what we figured was probably the largest bra around. (We think of it as a size Z bra.) So this year, having already made something large, we knew we had to do something really different. With Auto Outlets as a sponsor, what was left but to add headlights?
Thanks to Renee Veniskey of Immagine Photo for the photo of the finished piece.

Now Even Investment Firm BlackRock Favors the Philosophy of Benefit Corporations
The movement is growing. It started as a grassroots effort with small and mid-size companies, but this business model of contributing to the greater good is catching on with more influential supporters including, yes, Corporate America.
Last week, a New York Times article reported that "Laurence D. Fink, founder and chief executive of the investment firm BlackRock, is going to inform business leaders that their companies need to do more than make profits — they need to contribute to society as well if they want to receive the support and backing of BlackRock."
Yes, you read that correctly.
The largest investor in the world with more than $6 trillion in investments is telling business to serve a higher purpose than just profits. "Society is demanding that companies, both public and private, serve a social purpose," he writes in a draft of a letter going out the world's largest public companies. "To prosper over time, every company must not only deliver financial performance, but also show how it makes a positive contribution to society."
Which brings us to the related subject of this post: The Benefit Corporation.
Because the premise of this progressive business model is fundamentally based on the "Triple Bottom Line" or "3 P's" coined by British consultant John Elkington in 1994. He argued that companies should be preparing for not one but three bottom lines as we quote him in our new book "Putting Soul Into Business, a book that reinforces the words of BlackRock's CEO.
The first P is the measure of Profit. The second, People, is the measure of how socially responsible a business is to customers, the community and employees. And the third, Planet, measures how environmentally responsible the business is.
We think Mr. Fink would embrace these kind of metrics when evaluating a company's contributions to society.
Put simply, the Benefit Corporation raises the bar for a business seeking to make social and environmental impact.
And let's be clear.
It isn't only BlackRock issuing the mandate for business to be more socially responsible. A new generation of consumers is demanding it.
According to a 2015 Cone Communications Millennial CSR Study, "more than 9-in-10 Millennials would switch brands to one associated with a cause," and Millennials are "prepared to make personal sacrifices to make an impact on issues they care about, whether that's paying more for a product, sharing products rather than buying, or taking a pay cut to work for a responsible company."
The good news is that the Benefit Corporation is now an option as a legal structure in 34 states and counting. It's only a matter of time before it is available in all 50 states.
That's right. The business torch to serve a greater purpose is available now.
If you're interested in learning more about the "why" and the "how" of this new paradigm, our new book provides some answers.
It's not only something the CEO of the largest investment firm in the world embraces. It's something that your employees, customers and community would celebrate as well.
To get our just released book, "Putting Soul into Business: How the Benefit Corporation is Transforming American Business for Good," go here.

A Mix of Media and Lifestyle

Age Discrimination and the Alberta Human Rights Act/
By Linda McKay-Panos
Reprinted with permission from LawNow May/June 2017 Vol. 41(5).
PHOTO: FLICKR/Stephen Bartels
Recently, the Alberta Government agreed to add protection for age discrimination in the Alberta Human Rights Act (AHRA) in two areas—tenancy and services, goods and accommodation customarily available to the public. This was the result of a Consent Order on January 13, 2017 in the case of Ruth Maria Adria v Attorney General of Alberta. Age will be covered in these areas in effective January 2018. "Age" was already covered in employment, notices and membership in trade unions. The case was very similar to that of Delwin Vriend, 1998, when the court held that the absence of protection from discrimination based on sexual orientation in the Individual's Rights Protection Act, RSA 1980 (IRPA) violated the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, section 15(1). The difference is that in Vriend, the Supreme Court of Canada ordered that the words "sexual orientation" be read into the IRPA. This time, the Government agreed that the AHRA should be amended.
It is interesting to look at the history of legal protection for age discrimination. First, it is generally accepted that youth and elders experience the most effects of age discrimination. Yet, originally the definition of "age" in the Individual's Rights Protection Act, 1972, (IRPA) was "between 18 and 65". So the two most vulnerable groups were originally excluded from protection in all areas covered under the IRPA. The upper limit of age 65 was removed from the definition of "age" in the 1980s, so at least elders were protected from discrimination in some areas.
After a review of the IRPA (Equal in Dignity and Rights, 1994), the Review Panel recommended that age be covered in all areas and that the lower age limit be removed. This would be in keeping with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
It is clear that the addition of coverage of age in two areas will definitely be welcomed by all, especially seniors. This group is especially vulnerable and deeply affected by discrimination in all of the areas covered by the AHRA. Any fears by landlords or service providers that there will be a flood of claims must be allayed by the defence section 11 in the AHRA that allows a reasonable and justifiable excuse for discrimination. And, these landlords and service providers have a year to modify their practices and policies to ensure they comply with the law.
However, the Review Panel's recommendation that the lower limit of 18 be removed was not followed. So, youth are still unprotected from age discrimination in all areas under the AHRA. At Alberta Civil Liberties Research Centre, we receive inquiries from youth who are not allowed to eat in a restaurant in groups or who are not allowed in stores with their friends. These young people have no recourse to the AHRA for age discrimination. They are able to complain about discrimination based on other grounds such as race, religious belief, and sex, however.
Young people are vulnerable in our society and we are trying to teach them to be responsible citizens. At the same time, by allowing age discrimination against them we are hurting their dignity and demonstrating that they have no rights. The message this relays is not in keeping with youth developing into responsible citizens. This current definition of age (over 18) could also be the subject of a Charter section 15(1) case, similar to that of Vriend. Again, any concerns about floodgates are allayed by the reasonable and justifiable section 11. For example, there are good reasons why youth cannot purchase liquor or attend bars that serve alcohol.
Hopefully, the Government will remove this lower limit so that all Albertans are equally protected from age discrimination.

Nettoor (also spelled as Nettur aka Tirunettur) is a village located on Panangad Island at the outskirts of Kochi in Kerala, India. It is part of Maradu Panchayath. The backwaters have a unique ecosystem – freshwater from the rivers meets the seawater from the Arabian Sea. In certain areas, such as the Vembanad Kayal, where a barrage has been built near Kumarakom, salt water from the sea is prevented from entering the deep inside, keeping the fresh water intact. Such fresh water is extensively used for irrigation purposes
Kerala backwaters have been used for centuries by the local people for transportation, fishing and agriculture. It has supported the efforts of the local people to earn a livelihood. In more recent times, agricultural efforts have been strengthened with reclamation of some backwater lands for rice growing, particularly in the Kuttanad area. Boat making has been a traditional craft, so has been the coir industry.

Mainstream western culture is addicted to the convenience of plastic, to single-use items, cheap electronics of limited lifespan, and excessive packaging that assures us of safety and cleanliness. In the face of horrific images of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and mutilated wildlife, we are starting to wake-up to the necessity of curbing our addiction to these conveniences. This will require not just active engagement and action by government and industry, but a fundamental paradigm shift by every individual. For some of us, we will think back and remember how we used to do things before the ubiquitous presence of plastic, but many of us are young enough that we can't visualize our lives without plastic encasing everything.
If you are over 50, you likely remember the Prell shampoo commercial where a bottle of Prell was dropped from an unseen height and as we watched it approach the floor, we braced for the inevitable shattering of glass. Then… it bounced! This was the first shampoo to be marketed in a plastic bottle rather than a glass one. Glass!? Yes, glass. Milk was delivered in glass bottles, soda dispensed in glass or cans, hand lotion and other cosmetics in glass jars and bottles. I remember talking to my daughter-in-law about shampoo, and she asked how we managed glass bottles in the shower. We placed them outside the shower, stuck our heads out and applied the shampoo, so that we didn't drop the bottle in the tub. If you did drop the bottle on the floor, well, you finished in the shower and then cleaned it up. Glass made us care-full, while plastic has made us care-less.
Those of us over 50 remember other things like snacks, candy and ice cream treats packaged in paper, school lunches wrapped in waxed paper, convenience meals in aluminum trays and covers. We remember when apples did not come in factory molded trays, when restaurant leftovers were placed in paper boxes in a 'doggie bag'. We remember buying items at the hardware store by scooping them out of bins into paper bags, instead of sliding prepackaged plastic boxes hanging from pegs. We also remember being able to ask clerks not just where something was located, but about which product was best for our project. We learned to make and repair things, and in general, had fewer things, especially those requiring electricity.
We also remember the lies our government has told us, sometimes multiple times. Ever heard of 'trickle-down economics?' We have. It's the idea that if you cut taxes on business, business will naturally channel that cash into hiring more people and/or lowering prices, sharing the prosperity with everyone. It's a nice idea, except that there is nothing to require them to do so. It didn't work in our youth, and it won't work in yours.
Our society wants everything new and shiny, the old and used up discarded and out of sight, things done for us, not by us, by machine, and by computer. We isolate ourselves by our insatiable appetite for computer-based activities. This reality brings me to another aspect of our throw-away society – throwing away the wisdom and experience of elders.
Do you know how to sew on a button, hem jeans, iron a shirt, cook a meal from scratch, make simple repairs around the house? Kicking it up a notch, do you know how to knit, work with wood or metal, preserve food from a garden, use a slide rule? Chances are that those around you over 50 do, and that many of them would be delighted to teach you. In turn, they may welcome assistance with smartphones and social media, helping them communicate more readily and regularly with you.

They're back.
The Washington Huskies, after a week's absence in the AP poll for the first time in three seasons, returned to the national rankings on Sunday—moving into the 20th spot after beating Stanford.
For a half in their 27-23 victory over the Cardinal, the Huskies (7-3 overall, 5-2 Pac-12) resembled the top 10 team they once were by rushing out to a 21-0 advantage. They scored the first three times they had the ball.
They maintained the lead even after momentum swung back to Stanford, which rallied and pressed the outcome to the game's final play. UW free safety Taylor Rapp preserved the win by intercepting a K.J. Costello pass in the end zone as the clock ran out.
Washington now has a bye before resuming play against lowly Oregon State (2-7, 1-5), coached by Jonathan Smith, former Huskies offensive coordinator.
Washington State (8-1, 5-1), at 10th, and the Huskies are the only Pac-12 teams ranked by the AP.
The rest of the poll goes like this:
- Alabama; 2) Clemson; 3) Notre Dame; 4) Michigan; 5) Georgia; 6) Oklahoma; 7) West Virginia; 8) Ohio State; 9) LSU; 10) Washington State; 11) UCF; 12) Kentucky; 13) Syracuse: 14) Utah State; 15) Texas; 16) Fresno State; 17) Boston College; 18) Mississippi State; 19) Florida: 20 Washington; 21) Penn State; 22) NC State; 23) Iowa State; 24) Michigan State; 25) Cincinnati.

This story written by Karen Matambo, a Compassion Boston Bible Worker.
We were in the middle of the lesson when Joy* said, "Oh, there's something that happened this week that I need to tell you."
It's not often that Joy opens up, so we were all ears to hear her experience.
"Remember my neighbor that lives below me?" We did. "Well, you know how she's into horoscopes and all those things. She came up to my door the other day and started telling me how October is going to be a bad month for me."
"The devil is a liar!"—was my first thought. Already I recognized the significance of her neighbor's words.
She continued, "She has come up to my door and said this to me several times this week." My Bible Work partner and I could hear the worry in her voice.
Without permitting another moment to pass, I quickly said, "Let's pray about this." And there in the middle of our lesson, us three ladies gathered with our heads bowed. We prayed in Jesus' name that the power of Satan would be bound and leave the premise.
After we prayed, relief was back on Joy's face and as we continued our lesson, she said with conviction on her face and new found strength: "You know, next time I see her, I'm going to tell her, 'You are not allowed to say that to me anymore.'" Glory to God! Victory.
As usual, Satan had come up like a flood looking to build Joy's anxiety so she would be too scared to leave her home when the series began, but the Spirit of the Lord lifted up a standard against him (Isaiah 59:19)!
We left Joy's house rejoicing at the victory won by the Lord and deeper awareness of how much Satan wants to stop the efforts in Boston.
Dear brethren, the spiritual battle over God's children in Boston is fierce, this being one example, but Jesus said, "Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).
As you invite the Spirit of God to fight your battles against the forces of evil, please remember us also.
I don't know about you Christian soldiers, but I can't wait to see what standard God will lift up from here until the end of the series to really put Satan to shame. Our God is mighty and He will fight for us.
*Name changed.

Use contol + to blow up pictures. Or go to
C133A is on left, C133B in middle, C133C on right.
C133A: Oswald's feet are slightly forward of a sandbag under the staircase.The top of his head is substantially above the top of the fence behind him.
C133C: Oswald's feet are in almost the same place as in A, but in C the top of his head is even with the top of the fence behind him.
C133C did not appear in Warren Commission exhibits.
There doesn't seem to be enough of a difference in the positions of the feet to account for the difference in head positions. The closer a person being photographed is to the fence, the more the perspective changes.
The pistol on Oswald's hip matches the fence background exactly in C133A and C133C, but his head is not even close.
The change in head perspective might be accounted for if the photographer stood at different distances from Oswald for C133A and C133C. However, the staircase perspective seems to be about the same in A and C, though A's staircase shows less than C's.
If one were to push up C so that the feet are on the same horizontal line as the feet in A, then the staircase perspectives would be identical.
House assassinations committee experts connected to the FBI said that differences were attributable to changes in photo shooting angle.

Patidar Anamat Andolan Committee (PASS) leader Hardik Patel told reporters in Ahmedabad on Wednesday (November 22) that there has been an agreement on the formula for giving reservation to Patidar Samaj between his organization and Congress.
Patel said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has been in power for more than two decades and it is necessary to fight against it. Patel told reporters that he has not done any deal with the Congress regarding the ticket distribution in the Assembly elections. Along with this, accusing BJP, he said that They are trying to buy our candidates. They have spent 200 crores and has fielded independent candidates. There is no fight against BJP but it is necessary to fight against it. Speaking about the conflict in PAAS, he said that there is no such thing as controversy in his organization.
The assembly elections are held next month in Gujarat. In Gujarat, voting is going to be held for the assembly elections on December 9 and December 14. Election results will come on December 18. There are 182 assembly seats in the state. To form a government, it will be necessary to win the election on 92 seats. The BJP has been in power for more than two decades in the state. In the 2012 assembly elections, BJP got 116 seats.
