Justice Delayed Is Justice Denied Cautions HRC Chair
Human Rights Commission (HRC) Chairperson Mudford Mwandenga has called on law enforcement officers to refrain from abusing detention, noting the gross violations of human rights in places of detention uncovered by the Commissions investigations throughout 2017.
Acts of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, in all their forms or manifestation, are absolutely prohibited in international and regional human rights and humanitarian law, he reiterated in a statement to mark the Africa Pre-Trial Detention Day this week.
While expressing gratitude over the government's commitment to reform the criminal justice system, Mwandenga cautioned: "It is a well-known fact that justice delayed is justice denied, which is a violation of the rights of suspects to a speedy and fair trial. Delayed delivery of justice also amounts to extra-judicial punishment through prolonged detention without trial and undermines respect for the rule of law, human rights and constitutionalism".
The objective of Africa Pre-Trial Detention Day is to raise awareness of the human rights violations of thousands of individuals held in detention facilities across Africa for prolonged periods without trial, in violation of their rights and freedoms.

JuliaCheri Hoos: Why I Support CHI
I am a history teacher with a background in archaeology. I love my class of 14-year-old students, but they can be a tough crowd. Persuading them that they need to understand the Constitution, the War of 1812, or early American tariff policy is a challenge.
To enter into such deep and difficult subjects, we use images of maps, letters, treaties, currency, newspapers, and so on to give us something to hold onto and focus our conversation. A fragment of pottery, a petroglyph, a coin, a painting, portraits, political cartoons, and words on parchment – all are rich with information about the people who made them, and the world that made us. All give us access to the story of our past.
But today, loss of cultural sites and artifacts is a constant threat around the world. When they are lost, we lose a piece of ourselves.
As a public school educator, I deeply value Cultural Heritage Imaging (CHI) and their focus on preserving the material culture of our world. This is noble work that confers immediate value as well as long-term impact. CHI offers imaging technologies, RTI and photogrammetry, and trains conservators, archivists, librarians, and other cultural stewards so that they can apply those techniques to preserve our human history. And in preserving our history, CHI preserves that which has made us.
Like me, you can help support this noble work. Please help with a financial gift to CHI!

Nutrition and Cognition – What do we know in term infant?
Speakers: M. Domellöf
Presented at NNI European Meeting 2018: Early Nutrition Influence
Opening this presentation about nutrition and cognition in term infants, Magnus Domellöf explains the timeline of brain development, emphasizing the importance of the first two years of life. There is a considerable amount of data showing how important nutrition is to nourish the brain as it grows – in particular protein, fatty acids and micronutrients. He notes the complex causal pathway of brain development, with nutrition affecting physical growth and physical activity. The environment in which the infant is living, the caregiving style to which it is exposed and the opportunities for learning all contribute to brain development, alongside good nutrition.

Press Release: WFDB President Ernie Blom Praises New ISO Standard for Creating Clarity Over Natural and Synthetic DiamondsJuly 30, 15
(Press Release) –World Federation of Diamond Bourses (WFDB) President Ernie Blom has praised the release of ISO International Standard 18323: Jewellery - Consumer confidence in the diamond industry. Providing a series of definitions which aim to provide further clarity for traders and to maintain consumer confidence in the diamond industry as a whole, the WFDB was involved in formulating them, said Blom. The ISO ruling defines a diamond as something that was "created by nature"; it also says that "the denomination 'diamond' without further specification always implies 'natural diamond"'.
"The importance of this standard lies in the fact that it sets out which nomenclature can be used and which cannot in the purchase and sale of diamonds, treated diamonds and synthetic diamonds," Blom said. "As ISO says: 'ISO 18323:2015 will cover the nomenclature to be used by those involved in the buying and selling of diamonds, treated diamonds, synthetic diamonds, composite diamonds and imitations of diamonds.'
"ISO notes very clearly the issues that the WFDB has been emphasizing for some time: the need for integrity and transparency to ensure that consumers have total confidence in our products. Buyers do not usually have the technical knowledge to understand the many aspects of diamonds and so they are reliant on correct and honest labeling.
"Regarding synthetic diamonds, which is a critical issue for the diamond business, the ISO standard sets out descriptions for synthetic diamonds plainly and precisely. It points out the growth in production in recent years, and that lab-grown diamonds have essentially the same chemical and physical (including optical) properties as a natural, mined diamond. We have long pointed out the importance of consumers knowing exactly what type of diamond is being offered to them, and this new standard confirms this."
Blom explained that the first moves to create a new ISO standard began seven years ago in Europe and the WFDB has had a strong input, along with other industry stakeholders. "I am delighted that the Chairman of the Technical Committee that oversaw the formulation of ISO International Standard 18323 is none other than Harry Levy, President of the London Diamond Bourse.
"I would highly recommend that diamond industry members view information regarding the new ISO standard." The web site address is: https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#iso:std:iso:18323:ed-1:v1:en

2019 sees the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings and throughout the year the Royal British Legion will be remembering those who sacrificed and paid the ultimate price for our freedom in the D-Day landings of 1944.
Midnight had not long struck when the British and American airborne armada began its mission on 6 June 1944 in the moonlight. They landed at the edges of the invasion area on the Normandy coast to secure the western and eastern flanks of the beachheads and protect them from German attacks.
That day saw approximately 156,000 Allied troops break through into the French interior and begin a headlong advance in the war effort, paving the way for over 326,000 troops to land securely. The assault on the beaches of Normandy was the most significant victory of the Western Allies during the Second World War. Failure would have seen Hitler given the opportunity to initiate an eleventh-hour attempt to save Germany and launch his new V-weapons against British cities. Success would mean the beginning of the end of the Third Reich.
As part of our commemorations, will be held on Saturday, 8th June, at Arborfield Park, in aid of The Poppy Appeal, helping to raise funds to support our Armed Forces Community, including Families and Veterans.
The gates will open at 10:30 am, and the format of the day is as follows:

4 Fall Fashion Must-Haves
By Harley Wallace
Many women would say Fall is their favourite season for fashion and it's not hard to see why. Cooler temperatures are a welcome break from the stifling heat and breezy chiffon of summer and typically bring deeper palettes, plush fabrics and the opportunity to layer with outerwear. Ah if only the season lasted longer!
While these trends are here to stay, the Fall 2017 season has shone new light on some major style pieces that are sweeping closets and streets everywhere! Dare I say it is the year of maximalism…Regardless, fashion is becoming anyone's game and I've rounded up the four fall trends catching my eye this season.
Red has always been a staple colour on the runway, seen as a bold lip or popping out from under a pair of black Louboutins. But this season red is taking centre stage, with head-to-toe ensembles seen on runways across fashion week. Luckily we aren't fashion it-girls so we can play with this bright hue in a few, perhaps slightly more subtle, ways.
Designers are including a red option amongst the deeper hues of fall in everything from their eveningwear to their outerwear. These are both great ways to embrace the bold. If you gravitate more towards accessories, try a bright statement boot or eye-catching red purse for a dash of this season's go-to colour.
Yes you read that right. Checked fabric may seem like nothing new but this season's take has become the new neutral. Tonal 70's inspired plaid has made a comeback and honestly I am loving it. This print has a classic look about it that fits with the tailored suiting trend (think menswear but it's 2017 so we don't use that word) but there's nothing boring about styling this year's update on it!
Embrace your flirty side with ruffled hems and flattering ruching or keep it minimal with a great statement blazer or breasted coat. Like the outdoorsy look? Buffalo check is a great alternative to the "suiting" style and can even be mixed with other prints!
Winter Florals
Florals have transitioned seamlessly from Summer to Fall and it looks like they are here to stay! Winter florals have graced dresses, knits and even pants in deep tones and large vintage inspired prints.
Luxurious fabrics like velvet and thick embroidery all work to transform the floral motif from light and airy to rich and moody. Try pairing a floral knit dress with a chunky sweater or faux fur vest for a cold weather take. Dress it up, with velvet eveningwear or a draping kimono-style piece.
Tall Boots
That's right, I hope you kept yours in the back of your wardrobe because after a few-year hiatus the tall boot is back. Classic chelsea and ankle-booties will always hold a special place in my heart and closet but if you want to have some fun with footwear this fall you are in luck!
Slouchy 80's inspired boots, boots adorned with kitten heels, tall boots paired with midi skirts, the list of options is endless! Oh and did I mention there are no rules this season when it comes to colour and fabric. I've seen velvet, patent leather and plaid across a broad spectrum of colours and you know what, it works.
Be Inspired.

If you are experiencing a financial emergency that requires immediate cash, there is help. Payday loans may be able to help you get through this financial situation. That said, you need to get educated before taking out a high-risk loan like a payday loan. Here's some tips that can help you.
There is an abundance of payday loan companies that are eager to loan you money. If this type of loan is needed, make sure you review the lender's history before proceeding. Look into whether other people have felt good about their experiences with the company. Simply look up the company on the Internet and take a look at what others had to say about them.
If you are considering a short term, payday loan, do not borrow any more than you have to. Payday loans should only be used to get you by in a pinch and not be used for extra money from your pocket. The interest rates are too high to borrow any more than you truly need.
Make sure that you understand exactly what a payday loan is before taking one out. These loans are normally granted by companies that are not banks; they lend small sums of money and require very little paperwork. The loans are accessible to most people, although they typically need to be repaid within two weeks.
If you are in the process of securing a payday loan, be certain to read the contract carefully, looking for any hidden fees or important pay-back information. Do not sign the agreement until you fully understand everything. Look for red flags, such as large fees if you go a day or more over the loan's due date. You could end up paying far more than the original loan amount.
Look over every fee that you're going to have to pay when you get a payday loan. That way you will be prepared for exactly how much you will owe. Thankfully, the government has safeguards in place to help you. Most payday loan companies avoid these by adding on additional fees. This can add significantly to the cost of borrowing money. Understanding the fees can benefit you in your decision making process.
If the day comes that you have to repay your payday loan and you do not have the money available, ask for an extension from the company. Some companies can extend your due date by a day or two. As with anything else in this business, you may be charged a fee if you need an extension, but it will be cheaper than late fees.
If you feel you have been taken advantage of by a payday loan company, report it immediately to your state government. If you delay, you could be hurting your chances for any sort of recompense. As well, there are many people out there like you that need real help. Your reporting of these poor companies can keep others from having similar situations.
Protect yourself from identity theft when taking out a payday loan. You may need to provide a social security number, and scammers are eager to obtain such data for their own purposes. Make sure you are dealing with a reputable company.
If you have any valuable items, you may want to consider taking them with you to a payday loan provider. Sometimes, payday loan providers will let you secure a payday loan against a valuable item, such as a piece of fine jewelry. A secured payday loan will usually have a lower interest rate, than an unsecured payday loan.
Only take out a payday loan, if you have no other options. Payday loan providers generally charge borrowers extortionate interest rates, and administration fees. Therefore, you should explore other methods of acquiring quick cash before, resorting to a payday loan. You could, for example, borrow some money from friends, or family.
Do not borrow more money than you can afford to pay back. Before applying for a payday loan, you should figure out how much money you will be able to pay back, for instance by borrowing a sum that your next paycheck will cover. Make sure you account for the interest rate too.
When you are able to plan what to expect from payday loans, your confidence will be raised when you apply for it. Use the knowledge you've learned from the previous paragraphs to avoid getting into trouble with payday loans, and resolve your financial situation in an intelligent manner.

Before. The guy had already scrubbed it out with
special chemicals.
After. Still waiting to put the faucets back on.
Had to wait TWO days to shower in it.
(Thanks, Sam and Lindsay, for letting us use your shower.)
We hitched a ride back to our car in a random pick-up truck.
Thank you to those guys out there!
We were glad not to make the mile-and-a-half walk back.
Sam (Lindsay's husband) couldn't make it.
So, we brought Holi to him.
We told Sam that Dovy needed help in the
backyard for a few minutes.
Unsuspectingly, Sam willing obliged.
A few minutes later, we came out and dumped
the rest of our colors on him!
What a good sport.

Written by: Kensie Story
I wish I had a group of Christian friends. I've said this a heartbreaking amount of times in my past.
Maybe it was my bold personality or the fact that I couldn't quote scripture. Maybe it wasn't anything about me at all. But for whatever reason, I had a really hard time connecting with other Christians growing up.
I always felt a little on the outside. Every time I saw others with their close friends it made me feel lonely, left out, and unloved. Why not me? Why can't I have what they have?
I prayed countless times – God, please, please, just bring me Christian friends. Take away the loneliness. – but no one ever showed up. No one seemed to notice my desperation for connection, my desire for friendship.
So, instead of waiting on God, I got impatient and took matters into my own hands. If God wasn't going to bring me friends, I was just going to find them myself – no matter the cost.
As I sought friendship, acceptance, and love in my own ways, I let go of many of my beliefs. Loneliness can make us desperate enough that we compromise. Anything to stop the pain right?
We weren't meant to be alone. God, Himself, said it in the very beginning (see Genesis 2:18). But when we live in a broken world things don't always turn out as they were meant to. We sometimes end up feeling alone, judged, unloved, and unliked, but our God never leaves us or abandons us. Our God is with us in the midst of loneliness.
"I will be with you, day after day, to the end of the age." Matthew 28:20b VOICE
If I had waited for God, instead of trotting off independently like so many of us do, I could have avoided a lot of pain and struggle. When we compromise our beliefs for friendship, we end up with friends who aren't growing our faith. We end up with friends who may be hindering it.
Later on in my adult life, I reached a point where I was praying for Christian friends – again. I was desperate for friendships that could go deeper. I wanted friends I could pray with.
I prayed the same prayer I had in the past – God, please bring me Christian friends. – and once again God was not answering as quickly as I wanted.
But this time I was going to plant my little booty firmly on God's promises and wait. This time the devil wasn't going to win me over no matter how lonely I felt. This time my eyes were fixed on Christ and I believed that eventually, as long as I stayed connected to Him, He would bring the most perfect friendships into my life.
While I was waiting for God to bring those relationships into my life I had to stop focusing on finding the right person and start focusing on the being the right person. By cultivating my own faith and relationship with God, by keeping Him the primary focus, I was setting myself up for future relationships. They say that all the time about marriage, why not with friendships too?
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." Matthew 6:33 NIV
Over time, God did answer my prayer. And just like He so often does, He answered my prayer "infinitely beyond [my] highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes" (Ephesians 3:20 TLB).
Staying connected to God was key, but it also took some intentionality on my part. God brought many opportunities to me that would allow me to meet people – a mom's group, Bible studies, volunteering with a women's ministry – but I had to actually get involved and stay committed even when friendships didn't form right away.
I know it's hard to wait. I know it's easier to stay disconnected and lonely because the effort feels exhausting. But don't give up just yet! Don't keep yourself isolated!
God has great plans for each of us, including who our friends will be. He knows our pain and struggles and He promises to use all of it for good some day.
Grab hold to those promises and press on. Keep your eyes fixed on Him. Step out of your comfort zone and get involved. Stay committed. And then wait patiently to see what God does.
"Be still. Be patient. Expect the Eternal to arrive and set things right." (Psalm 37:7a VOICE, emphases mine)
"All eyes have turned toward You, waiting in expectation; when they are hungry, You feed them right on time. The desires of every living thing are met by Your open hand." (Psalm 145:15-16 VOICE, emphasis mine)

Being a Presbyterian Church means, first and foremost, having her rule by elder. That is the meaning of the Greek word for which we get our English word presbyter or elder. Fundamentally then, First ARP Church is organized, led and ruled by a group of men who are duly ordained and installed by the congregation to serve her in such an office. She is led, effectively, by a representative form of government. This provides a faithful layer of accountability, oversight and protection.
The Session, therefore, shall have as its primary responsibility the initiation, planning, organization and administration of programs designed to enable the congregation to carry on the mission of God in Christ's Church by word and deed in the community and also in the Presbytery, the General Synod and the whole world.
The Session of First ARP Church is composed of 5 classes of men who serve 5 year terms, each. They can be readily found on the back of our worship bulletin. Currently, the men who actively serve our church as elders are:
2019 Class: Buddy Cassels, Bob Harper, Carey Harper, Jeff Lyon
2020 Class: George Coxhead, Jamey Dagenhart, Martin Grant, Tim Marshall
2021 Class: John Gettys Jr., Walter Revell, Tom Roper, Bill Vogel
2022 Class: George Barron Jr., David Gault, Jeff Lesslie, Charles Robbins
2023 Class: Robert Alexander, John Barron, Max Smith, Gerald Talley

1. Alternate Sitting and Standing
Instead of just keeping your body idle, why not sit and stand at different times of the day! This keeps the blood flowing all-throughout your body! Did you know that just standing up burns fat? If you're not typing or reading from a screen, try stretching your legs and stand up to take that call or brainstorm on your feet. Some people who've tried it say it keeps them more alert and responsive while working!
2. Try Walking Meetings
You don't have to be alone in keeping fit at the office! Encourage your co-workers to join you in having a meeting while walking! It doesn't have to be that long, just going down to the nearest store for coffee or a snack is enough. Exercise your mind and body by moving your legs to get the blood pumping while absorbing sunlight for some vitamin D to give skin that natural glow and stay awake.
3. Strengthen Calves
Feel like your feet are turning into cement? Try pointing your toes while sitting down or standing up! Not only will it stretch your toes and crack some knots, but it will also strengthen your feet and calves to keep it firm. It will relax your lower body and ready your legs ready for your walk to the car or even straight home! Do this as often as you like stretch some muscles and give better leg definition.

David said to Solomon, "My son, I had it in my heart to build a house to the name of the Lord my God. But the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 'You have shed much blood and have waged great wars; you shall not build a house to my name, because you have shed so much blood before me upon the earth. Behold, a son shall be born to you; he shall be a man of peace. I will give him peace from all his enemies round about; for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quiet to Israel in his days.'"
1 Chronicles 22:7-8, RSV

By John Owubokiri
THE Greeks of ancient times gave the world the theory and lexicon of democracy; the French, God bless them, exemplified its practice. The Greek generations of the late 18th century and early 19th century were regarded in Christian Europe as the degenerate descendants of their noble ancestors.
Straddled politically by an Ottoman Empire in decline, it took the example of successful Serbian revolt championed by a man of peasant birth, Karageorge and then in 1820 by Milosh Obrenovitch, the "Prince of the Serbians,†for the Greeks to finally summon the gumption for organised rebellion against their weak oppressors. They formed a secret society, the Hetairia Philike at Odessa in 1814. Apart from freedom for the Greeks from the Ottoman Empire, Hetairia Philike also aimed at expelling the Turks from Europe, which was a more ambitious aspiration than the critical nobility and statesmen of Europe could muster against that hated Empire.
In attempting to exterminate their oppressors, the Greeks, led by Prince Alexander Ypsilanti overreached themselves, fighting with so much ferocity that their enemies found justification to return in over spilling measure. On Easter day 1821 the Turks hanged the head of the Greek Church, the Patriarch of Constantinople in his robes.
What is the moral for Nigeria? The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) is in many ways like Hetairia Philike, both birthed by unbearable political stimuli.
Yes, MEND like Hetairia Philike had justification or at least necessity to protest. In this 21st century only the ignorant or people of twisted or dubious intellect can deny that the people of the Niger Delta were pressed into protest by unbearable conditions. Denial is a fact of life; it is also a strategy. Like the activists of MEND, the Greeks found to their consternation that the principles of the Holy Alliance, which dictated that a Christian power must extend military aid to an oppressed Christian population, could not immediately apply to them.
Again like the current world powers who are more interested in the availability and stable supply of energy sources than overseeing the implementation of the tenets of federalism and capitalism, European monarchs at the time were more concerned with containing the tendency of ethnic populations to rebel against their overlords, a development which could threaten their own dynasties, than assisting a Christian population to remove themselves from the yoke of a Mohammedan Sultan.

The first major blockbuster of the year is here, folks!
Disney's "John Carter" comes out this Friday and most people know absolutely nothing about it.
The film comes from the mind of author Edgar Rice Burroughs, who wrote the 11-volume tale of a dying Mars and John Carter—the earthling brought to the planet to save all who inhabit it.
Disney shelled out $250 million big ones for the production helmed by Pixar director Andrew Stanton, who previously directed "Finding Nemo" and "Wall-E."
That's a lot of dough and pressure to throw on someone who's directing a live-action film for the first time and Taylor Kitsch, whose most starring role to date is as a small town football player on the acclaimed "Friday Night Lights."
With marketing confusion surrounding the movie's title to rumors that the film went over budget, "John Carter" might become 2012's first big-budget box office bomb.
But considering the intriguing trailer and the impressive, just-released 10-minute scene from the movie, we certainly hope the film ends up a success.
So while we wait for the results, let's take a look at some of the biggest box office bombs of the last 30 years.
Scientology's experiment with Hollywood starring John Travolta was not only a terrible movie but had an embarrassing result.
The alien invasion film eventually made under $30 million and won an astonishing nine Razzies total including ones for Worst Picture and Worst Actor for Travolta.
Total Production Cost: $73,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $29,725,663
Total Loss: 70.59%
This Kurt Russell vehicle about a soldier who must learn human feelings and save the world was a terribly entry in the science fiction genre.
Director Paul W.S. Anderson would fare much better commercially four years later with "Resident Evil" but this film was a big box office and critical bomb.
Total Production Cost: $60,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $14,594,226
Total Cost: 75.68%
Remember the Alamo?
Well no one remembered to go to this movie about the historic fight at the Alamo anyway.
Even stars like Billy Bob Thorton and "The Lost Boys" heartthrob Jason Patric couldn't save this giant flop.
Total Production Cost: $107,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $25,820,000
Total Loss: 75.87%
Well Mariah Carey can't be good at everything, can she?
This struggling musician-turned-popstar story didn't take a lot to make, but it didn't make a lot either.
Not only that, but the movie was panned by critics everywhere and Carey won a Razzie award for Worst Actress.
Total Production Cost: $22,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $5,271,666
Total Loss: 76.04%
Considered the biggest commercial failure in the Guinness Book of World Records, this big-budget film stars Geena Davis and "Full Metal Jacket" actor Matthew Modine in an action adventure with pirates who hunt for treasure and look for a missing father.
Total Production Cost: $98,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $18,517,322
Total Loss: 81.11%
It sounds clever: an animated comedy adventure about a human immune system under attack by a deadly virus.
Starring Chris Rock as a cocky white blood cell, "Fraiser" actor David Hyde Pierce as a cold pill and Laurence Fishburne as the virus, "Osmosis Jones" tanked in theaters despite being directed by the Farrelly Brothers, aka the comedy team behind "There's Something About Mary."
Total Production Cost: $75,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $14,026,418
Total Loss: 81.30%
This science fiction horror debacle stars James Spader and Angela Basset as a pilot and medical officer (respectively) aboard a spaceship that rescues a young man who brings aboard an alien entity that destroys the very nature of humanity.
Total Production Cost: $90,000,000
Worldwide Gross: 14,828,081
Total Loss: 83.52%
When basing a movie on a brilliant short story by Ray Bradbury, there's no room for mistakes.
Unfortunately "A Sound of Thunder" is full of mistakes as the cast and crew ruin an intriguing story about the consequences of time travel.
Total Production Cost: $80,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $11,665,465
Total Loss: 85.42%
What a strange idea for a film.
Martians go around kidnapping mothers because they need steal their "momness" and one little kid tries to stop them from taking his own mother.
Needless to say, parents and kids didn't really get it. The movie was an epic failure and caused Disney to abandon their 3D remake of "Yellow Submarine"
Total Production Cost: $150,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $38,992,758
Total Cost: 85.74%
Oh Bennifer...
This train wreck of a relationship resulted in a train wreck of a film about a lesbian and a low-ranking mobster who fall in love while kidnapping a mentally-challenged brother of a federal prosecutor.
The film won the dishonors of Worst Film, Worst Director, Worst Screenplay, Worst Actor, Worst Actress and more at the Razzies.
Total Production Cost: $54,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $7,266,209
Total Loss: 86.55%
The last time Warren Beatty and Diane Keaton starred together in a film, "Reds," the movie was nominated for Best Picture and also enjoyed some commercial success.
The second time... not so much.
This romantic comedy follows a married couple and their lives along with their best friends.

Worldwide Gross: $10,372,291
Total Loss: 88.48%
Starring Brendan Fraser and Sarah Jessica Parker, this re-imagination of "Dudley Do-Right" follows the iconic Canadian Mountie as he defeats his childhood acquaintance Snidely.
As expected, the film was unfunny, immature and unnecessary.

Worldwide Gross: $9,974,410
Total Loss: 88.53%
Up until 2002, Eddie Murphy had been an extremely successful comedy and voice actor for films like "Coming to America," "The Nutty Professor," and "Shrek."
So naturally, he wanted to make a big-budget action, sci-fi comedy about a man trying to save his nightclub from the space mafia.
And naturally, it began the downward spiral in his career.
Total Production Cost: $100,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $7,103,973
Total Loss: 92.9%
Director Michael Cimino had a lot to prove for his next venture after his film "The Deer Hunter" became a critical and awards darling.
What he followed up with was beyond disappointing.
This Western about a sheriff who tries to protect Wyoming immigrant farmers from wealthy ranchers was a gigantic commercial failure.
Total Production Cost: $44,000,000
Worldwide Gross: 3,484,331
Total Loss: 92.08%
The second screen adaptation of the acclaimed novel was sure to be a critical hit with respectable commercial success based off the capable hands of "Fatal Attraction" director Adrian Lyne and stars Jeremy Irons and Melanie Griffith.
But it ended up being neither of those things. The controversial subject matter of an older man falling in love with an adolescent girl made an extremely quiet entrance and exit at the box office.
Total Production Cost: $62,000,000
Worldwide Gross: $1,147,784
Total Loss: 98.15%

Driving into work this morning, I imagined this scene in my head. Again, as I began to write it, it was headed in a very different direction.
After fifteen minutes, I wrote the last sentence that changed everything.
Members of the 132nd Battalion looked out over the rolling expanse of land extending from what was left of the city they defended. The majority of the soldiers took cover behind jagged walls of blasted concrete, while the rest took positions in low ditches not far from the edge of the city.
As they waited for the inevitable conflict, they listened to reports of invasion all over the Earth. Weeks had passed since the first reports of attacks had started coming in from abroad. The attacks were strategically surgical and took out supply lines and defenses all over the seven continents before anyone realized what was happening.
The settlement once known as Boston, that they now defended, had already been hit hard by drone attacks, but the 132nd had just received orders to prepare to repel a ground assault. The invaders had assault carriers headed their way.
A few of the soldiers tossed water, rations, and energy batteries across dusty remnants of buildings. A stray cough or sneeze was the only sound they made as they each kept their eyes turned towards the growing clouds in the distance.
The invaders were able to create atmospheric shields around their vessels and could hide easily in the natural cloud formations that had become the norm since the first major attacks.
As suddenly and quietly as a ray of sunshine can break through a ceiling of dark thunderstorm clouds, the invaders' ships dropped out of the clouds.
Every man standing there in the ruins of what was once the great city of Boston clenched their stun rifles a little tighter. More than a few wished the Federation had rescinded the ban on lethal weapons, but the majority found peace in the fact that they were not the murderers in this new war. They pledged to die with honor, and they would do so knowing their hands would be free of another living creatures blood.
For a century, their Earth had been the birthplace of a new utopian society of peace and efficiency. Science and technology blossomed like wildflowers in the pastures of freedom their collective efforts had grown from the near disaster their predecessors had allowed to come to pass.
The assault carriers landed in the fields with ground-shaking thuds, and swarms of invaders poured out of the massive ships' metal bellies, firing their lethal plasma weapons and killing everything and everyone before them.
The 132nd Battalion put up a good fight, disabling three platoons of invaders without killing them before they were overrun and murdered. The now helpless citizens waited patiently in the ruins of the city for death to descend upon them.
The human war machine had returned to Earth from its banishment in deep space.

Enterprise Resource Planning
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are a comprehensive and complicated technology initiative implemented by companies in order to receive system-wide efficiencies by sharing common data across all business functions. These systems (Oracle and SAP are the largest 2) change the way people work/think/act by challenging the way they have previously done things.
Employees are naturally resistant to the imposed change. In order for the system implementation to be successfully launched, employees must buy into the importance of the initiative. To do this, the change team should:
- Communicate clear business objectives;
- Align around Standard Operating Procedures/Principles that outline best practice;
- Deliver End User training – clarifying the new concepts, practicing the application in their own contexts, reflecting on their experience.
How do you prepare naturally resistant employees for change?

Is short it just a zip file, rename into a *.jar file.
It embed all compile java class file required for it execution.
Also it embed a text file call MANIFEST.MF who tell which class to use as entry point of the application (also call Main-Class).
Exemple of /META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file content for a runnable jar:
Main-Class: com.mycompany.MyMainClass
In this example the class com.mycompany.MyMainClass is the entry point.
So it need to implement the function "public static void main(String[] args)"
Let's look at the source code of dir2server a simple java project.
It use 10 jar libraries as dependancy and it's entry point is com.doduck.prototype.cli.dir2server
To create a valid runnable jar we need to merge those 10 libraries classes and our classes into a jar file.
We also need to create a MANIFEST.MF who point to our entry point
Main-Class: com.doduck.prototype.cli.dir2server

The release of the prize-winning documentary 'The Cove' is once more focusing world wide attention on dolphin killing in Japan and the capture of dolphins for dolphinariums.
But little of the coverage refers to the history of the subject. It is important that people realise that this is a battle that has been going on for 30 years or more. This post pays tribute to the pioneer protestors.
'The Cove' focuses on the killings on Iki Island, a topic we covered in the book we produced in the early 1990s - The Greenpeace Book of Dolphins (see Previous Post: DOLPHINS REVISITED). This is part of what we wrote for the book at that time:
'The battle between dolphins and the fishermen of Katsumoto in Iki island... dates back to the early part of the twentieth century. It was then that dolphins were first blamed for disturbing the breeding grounds of the yellowtail, the islanders' main fish catch. The killing of the dolphins remained sporadic, however, until 1976 when yellowtail catches declined and the fishermen protested that it was because of an increased population of dolphins in the area....Between 1976 and 1982, the Iki islanders killed at least 4,147 bottlenose dolphins, 953 false killer whales, 525 Risso's dolphin and 466 Pacific white-sided dolphins.'
Back in 1989 we produced The Greenpeace Story, an official history of Greenpeace which was published by Dorling Kindersley. [See Previous Post: GREENPEACE: THE RETURN TO AMCHITKA]
Blood Bath Trapped in the Japanese slaughter pens, dozens of dolphins are hacked to death. The shocking sight of this massacre spurred Dexter Cate and Patrick Wall into action.
Dolphin Massacre
Three notable actions by Greenpeace activists in Japan, in protest against the killing of whales and dolphins, hit the headlines between 1979 and 1981.
Early Greenpeace days in Vancouver with Paul Spong (who first got Greenpeace involved with whales via a group called Project Jonah) and Dexter Cate at far right. [Source: Quad meme blog]
'In 1978, US environmentalist Dexter Cate first witnessed the destruction of over 1,300 dolphins by fishermen on the Izu Peninsula, 200 kilometres (120 miles) southwest of Tokyo. It was a sight he was unlikely to forget.
He arrived to find some 300 dolphins penned in nets at the harbour mouth. The water in the harbour was red with blood, following an earlier round-up. As he watched, a fisherman in one of the boats surrounding the nets hurled a spear into the milling dolphins, piercing one of them. This random wounding served to keep the dolphins in a state of panic and confusion, and prevented them from escaping since they will not abandon an injured member of their group.
A dozen dolphins at a time were then winched ashore by their tails. What followed was horrific, as the fishermen went to work with their knives. "Dolphins with bellies slit open thrashed about, whistling in distress as their entrails flopped on the concrete. They didn't lose consciousness even as blood gushed from their throats. As we stood there, horrified witnesses, a fisherman deftly severed the heart from a still quivering dolphin and tossed it aside. It landed less than a yard from my feet, still beating."
The corpses were later dragged to a mincing machine and the flesh was ground up for use as pig food and plant fertilizer.
Cate learned that the dolphins were being held responsible for the alarming decline of yellowtail fish and squid, but he was certain that pollution and overfishing were to blame. When he returned to Japan late in 1979, he discovered that the government now encouraged the killing and were paying a bounty of $80 per head. It was then that Cate turned to civil disobedience.
In the early hours of February 28, 1980, Cate paddled a small inflatable boat out to Tatsunoshima (Dragon Island), an islet in the bay 800 metres (2,600 feet) off Iki Island, where he untied three ropes and cut a fourth to release 300 dolphins. When the fishermen returned to their nets, Cate recalls: "They were angry, but not abusive. They understood, finally, that I had acted from a moral position. They just didn't understand that position."
Neither did a Japanese court. Following his arrest, Cate was charged with criminal damage and denied bail. He spent three months in jail before being given a suspended six-month sentence and deported to his home in Hawaii.'

Greenpeace member Patrick Wall was shocked by what he saw when he travelled to Japan in November 1980 to research the dolphin slaughter at Izu, south of Tokyo. Here dolphins were killed for food every week during the season. In January 1981, he managed to dismantle 15 metres (50 feet) of the net barricading the slaughter pens and release 150 dolphins before daybreak. Two days later he gave himself up to the authorities; after three trials and 62 days in prison, he was given a suspended six-month sentence, a three-year probation and told that he couldn't return to Japan for one year.'

The German Expressionism, among others, was the movement that had its peak around that time, and therefore one of the better connected to the dark, horror, distorted world of the supernatural. It refers to a number of creative movements beginning in Germany before First Great War, and reached its in in Berlin 1920. These developments were part of a larger Expressionist movement in north and central European culture.
Being Eric Zahn of German descendant and the story maybe supposedly happening in France. I thought that this movement could perfectly fit the animation.
So I began to research in-depth some of the artists of this movement, not by their importance, but by the way their art could easily influence the style chosen for this animation.
Max Pechstein (1881-1955)
Max Pechstein was a German Painter and Printmaker, who joined the German Expressionist Group Die Brucke. Although he had really vivid and colourful paintings, what caught my attention is his work was his prints, where the dark, minimalist and distorted style was more visible. He had prints ranging from portraits to environments in which all of them shared the same quality.
Here are some examples:
Sick Girl, 1919. From "H M Pechstein Holzschnitte 1919" portfolio
Village Street,1919. From the series Das Dorf (The Village)
I really like the graphical quality of them, something which printmaking can achieve perfectly.
Another artist having a similar style was Eric Heckel, a friend of Max Pechstein, and one of the founders of the German Artistic Group Die Brucke.
Eric Heckel (1883-1970)
Eric Heckel was a German Painter and Printmaker, and founder of the German artistic group Die Brucke. Although being a painter, all his life he dedicated more to printmaking, producing numerous works which later were classified as "degenerate" by the Nazi parties. To aggravate the situation during the World War II his studio was bombed and many of his early prints were destroyed, however he never stopped doing prints, moving away from where he lived he carried his career as a printmaker, though many the works produced of that time could not be compared to the early ones.
Here are some examples of his prints:
Sick Young Girl, 1913. woodcut print.
Zwei Manner am Tisch,1913. Woodcut print.
Beim Vorlesen,1914. Woodcut print.
After searching the artist movements, i took once again Phil suggestion and looked at the works of Lee Brown Coye, an artist who did some illustrations for H.P. Lovecraft books. Phil directed me to look at his works because of the graphical and simplicity some have. Working in black and white, he creates astonishing pieces of work where the mark-making is clearly visible.
Lee Brown Coye (1907-1981)
An apparition, 1963. Brush and ink on scratchboard
Railroad Trestle, 1941. Woodcut Print
I know I could be here forever naming artists that could easily influence me, however I found these ones maybe the msot influential, if I find any other artist I will update this list.

Content management document system is really helpful to retrieve and access the key customer records, business data, accounting and financial information. All this data is really very important to run day-to-day business operations for any business organization. A good quality document management cms helps to eliminate the space consuming filing problems and the tough processes associated with manual systems. A content management document system is really beneficial to retrieve and access the documents and files located in different folders.
A document management system designed by Best cms Software Company US systematically stores and archives scanned documents, images and other files. Categorizations and other forms of classification enable documents to be stored in multiple ways in a DMS. These files can be retrieved with full text query search capabilities. Using any word or combination of words, users can search and locate any documents anytime and perform major changes as per work requirements. Less time is spent by staff in searching for documents or attempting to find current versions. It is essential to regularly share the latest information regarding the content management document to your employees and workers. Files can be printed from any computer or printer and can also be distributed through DVDs or CDs. Co-workers can share information and collaborate on specific projects and assignments. Multiple reviewers, approvers and decision makers can access files and review documents faster. Reduced storage is one of the biggest benefits of investing in a document management system. Large enterprises, small and medium businesses, non-profit organization and start-ups all look to consolidate and optimize business operational areas to save on commercial rent and ownership costs. Industry and regulatory compliance and regulations has necessitated storage and archiving of vast amounts of document-generated data and information. Maintaining paper-based records and masses of document folders will hamper the working of employees, staff and other workers in limited office space and work environments. An integrated document management cms reduces the amount of prime office area required for maintaining paper-based records.

For seven years Chuck Smay has been digging into the historical records of a small town that for a short time in the nineteenth century was the seat of government in Butte County. His work, some written in the first person, reads like a mystery story as he pieces together evidence from old deeds as to the businesses there and old maps as to the size of the place. General readers will enjoy the winsome narrative and armchair historians will appreciate the carefully chosen details.
"The Town of Bidwell at Bidwell's Bar: Boom and Bust, 1848 - 1860" ($25 in paperback from the Butte County Historical Society, email@example.com) has a companion website,
http://sites.google.com/site/bidwellthetown. Copies of the book are available at the Society's Museum Store in Oroville (http://www.buttecountyhistoricalsociety.org/giftshop.html).
Smay provides first an overview of the town's history with a chapter devoted to its various names (Bidwell, Bidwell's Bar, Bidwell Bar). Next is the story (an adventure, really) of map reconstruction and then several chapters devoted to the post office, the town's newspaper, the National Hotel, and the bridge at Bidwell's Bar. There are also historical photographs and a wealth of appendices.
In 1854 the editor of the Butte Record in Bidwell "expressed his view of community values": "Dropping into one of the newly erected saloons in town the other evening, we were surprised and shocked to see the youth of Bidwell, gathered around several tables, and engaged in the nefarious business of gambling."
There's also the story of a political fight for the future of Bidwell. "Between 1853 and 1856 Bidwell was the center of county government." A fire gutted the town in 1854, but the residents rebuilt. "In 1854 talk started about the construction of a permanent bridge across the Feather River at Bidwell" and "the local newspaper championed the continued prosperity of the town and unlimited future growth."
But the town failed to reckon with nearby Ophir (Oroville) "which began flexing its political and economic muscle," causing "vicious editorial exchanges" between rival newspapers. Bidwell lost. "Its remaining glory was perpetuated by a bridge, tollhouse, orange tree and a small community of businesses that served the needs of the local residents who refused to leave the area." But now, in print, it lives again.

Previously I mentioned my love for Omnifocus. Omnifocus is a great tool to help organize, plan and complete your daily, weekly, monthly and yearly tasks. I use the program on my mac, iPad and iPhone. There is not a day goes by (unless I am on vacation) that I am not checking my task list. I can not recommend or thank the people at Omnigroup enough for helping me organize tasks at home, office, and the church.
After downloading Omnifocus and mastering this tutorial on the basic setup of Omnifocus to GTD, you are ready for some of the more advanced features of Omnifocus.
Mail Drop
This is by far my favorite aspect of Omnifocus. Once set up, you are assigned an email address that is linked with your account. Now, any email that goes to that address will forward and import into your inbox in Omnifocus. I created a contact in my address book with the Omnifocus email address. As soon as an email comes in that requires processing I will forward to the created contact. If I send out an email that requires follow up, I will bcc the created contact so that it goes into my Omnifocus inbox. From there, I can classify it, give it a due date, or add any more pertinent information needed. Around lunch and at the end of the day I go through my Omnifocus inbox to clear it out. One more important point concerning mail drop, only give the email address to a few trusted individuals. The last thing you want (and I have learned this from experience) is a bunch of tasks that others are suppose to be doing but they hope to sneak it on to your desk. Or, some joker that email spams you with a bunch of nonsense or registers that email up for eHarmony, both of which have happened to me...
Location Awareness
Another unique feature is being reminded that you are in close proximity of a location where you can complete a task. For instance, if you need to stop after work and grab some milk, some youth group supplies, or whatever else, your phone or iPad (I do not have an Apple Watch but I assume this feature is enabled since it is wearable technology) will begin to alert you that you need to pull in and complete a task as you approach a location. You can also set it to remind you to complete a task when you approach or leave a specific location. Please note, location services would need to be enabled which ultimately means data usage.
Siri Capture
With Siri, quickly adding a task to your Omnifocus inbox is quick and simple. Whether you are at a stoplight or walking away from your office, you can activate Siri and add a task. You will later need to classify and process the task since it by default goes right into your inbox.
Forecast View
This is not necessarily an advanced feature, but a relatively new feature that reduces stress in my day. The forecast view is exactly what it sounds like, it gives you a snapshot of what tasks are due in the future. I find this helpful when I am trying to figure out when I should plan to finish a project or task, especially if I need to give an estimated completion date. This also allows me to plan ahead better. By seeing when I have "low" and "high" weeks, I can spread out the tasks over time and make my timeline more manageable. This helps me avoid cramming everything in at once and to better prioritize my schedule.
Organization is not something that comes natural to everyone. Some are gifted and can stay on top of their tasks, others need help. Omnifocus helps to manage your day to day, week to week, month to month, and your one off tasks. It can help keep your personal and professional life in order. Keep it simple, stay with it, and watch the clutter of tasks get accomplished quickly and efficiently.
