Professor Benton,
Where can I find the Intro and chapter 1 for today's class?
I am a senior ISAT major student at JMU concentrating in Production Systems. I enjoy building electronics as well as cross-platform development. I hope to pursue a career that can combine my hands-on experience with putting things together, my knowledge in software development and my detailed eye for design. Other hobbies I enjoy are back packing, football and anything that can induce an adrenaline rush.0 Posts
My name is Blake and I am a senior at James Madison University. I am an Integrated Science and Technology with a concentration in Information Knowledge Management. I am currently working on finishing my capstone project which involves understanding the VoC of small farmers in considering industrial hemp as a growing resource in Virginia.

I was born in Kansas and moved to Virginia a few days before I turned 9. During middle and high school, I participated in baseball, basketball, and track. Unfortunately, it became time to abandon my dreams of becoming a peewee baseball star and decide what college to attend. My decision was torn between Virginia Tech and here, but needless to say I choose James Madison. The majority of my freshman year was spent wondering what major to choose. My first choice was chemistry, which I couldn't have been more wrong about. My next option was something business related, which ultimately became accounting. Currently, I participate in intramural sports, and clubs such as Habitat for Humanity, and Fast for Food.0 Posts

If you go and open your TV, each news channel talks concerning the "economic meltdown" that's occurring all over the world. Writing at a time of heightened curiosity in South-South cooperation, Arthur Lewis, in his 1979 Nobel lecture, presaged a lot of the latest discussion round global economic decoupling and catch-up progress. Nevertheless, it is important to explore in greater depth the qualities of micro-running a blog—actual-time, speedy communication, searching, link-sharing and the follower construction—and their affect on the way news and data is communicated.
In May, 2003 the Ministry commenced a study to guide the Authorities within the preparation of a complete plan for social protection development, in addition to a feasibility study for medical health insurance. The media ecology can best be considered as a framework, a manner of looking at the world through the lens that mediums and know-how are much more influential than the content material of the messages they provide.
Even at the moment, many people find themselves so immersed in social media and video games that they lose contact with actuality. Enormous problems of human adjustment and of social and financial coverage Bll the trail of industrialisation with hazards of every kind by which the nation must chart its course correctly, absolutely utilizing the expertise of others.
Meanwhile, the Afrocentric media – media created by and reflecting the worldview of individuals of African descent – is mostly struggling to maintain afloat. Sankara's revolutionary policies for self-reliance and defiance towards the neoliberal improvement methods imposed by the West made him an icon to many supporters of African liberation. Its straightforward to debate that technology is unhealthy when your life hasnt been dependant on it. Giving a baby or a grown man a brand new likelihood at life makes it all worth it. And as far as obesity that isnt the medicals fault and even remotely near it, its peoples choices to decide on to eat all that fatty foods.
It was at about that time that the United States started to feel the effects of what political scientist Hugh Heclo has aptly known as policy congestion." As the federal government does increasingly more, policies more and more overlap, stumble upon one another, and, all too often, start to contradict each other. It's clear that customers are not reading online within the traditional sense; indeed there are signs that new forms of reading" are rising as customers energy browse" horizontally by titles, contents pages and abstracts going for quick wins.

Don't Judge Me!
"Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgement on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things." -Romans 2:1
Judgement; rather truly righteous or self-righteous, is based on a moral framework. It is acknowledgement of right and wrong in addition to making or coming to conclusions based on the said framework. It seems as if in today's society, we are constantly in a state of flux when it comes to moral issues. In the Romans 1, Paul lays out a clear definition of what God's righteousness is (truth) and what unrighteousness stems from (the suppression of truth). Therefore the Christian has a immutable source (if truly from God) to make sound judgements.
In our Western culture it has become easy to avoid the often abrasive parts of truth rather than developing and cultivating ourselves and our skill sets to speak the truth in love. We often believe that many will just come to "know" their sin, and we will be there to let them know that Jesus Christ was crucified for their sins. Unfortunately, that is not the world we live in. The reality is that people are all too comfortable with sin and some may even deny such a thing. As Christians, we are often bystanders, sitting on the sidelines, letting sin reshape our world as we find ourselves in a world that is increasingly more bizzare. We do not intelligently voice our opinions on key subjects, leaving a vacuum on structural moral issues that frame the health of our societies. As a result, the Christian voice is replaced with various worldviews that will lead people away from the truth, creating a world where the idea of sin is more and more intangible.
I feel that the root of this problem is based on an over-correction of dealing with religiosity and legalism. I often hear terms like; "I'm not religious but I believe in God," or "those Christians are legalistic." I often cringe when I hear these terms thrown about to appease those that have criticized a religion for being religious or exclusive (having legality). While I admire the attempt to comfort those who have been scarred by religiosity and legalism, I think that is important that we value religion and the law.
The Law and Propitiation
The importance of understanding the law is to realize that it provides a reference in understanding why there must be an atonement for sin.
"…for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. and are justified by his grace as a gift through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith." (Romans 3:23-25)
The understanding and realization of propitiation is often an overlooked term in our evangelical approach. This was first brought to my attention by reading J.I. Packer's Knowing God. In it he says the following regarding propitiation:
"No doubt it is true that the subject of divine wrath has in the past been handled speculatively, irreverently, even malevolently. No doubt there have been some who have preached of wrath and damnation with tearless eyes and no pain in their hearts. No doubt the sight of small sects cheerfully consigning the whole world, apart from themselves, to hell has disgusted many. Yet if we would know God, it is vital that we face the truth concerning his wrath, however unfashionable it may be, and however strong our initial prejudices against it. Otherwise we shall not understand the gospel of salvation from wrath, nor the propitiatory achievement of the cross, nor the wonder of the redeeming love of God."
It is important for Christians to not shrink back when they see that something is clearly wrong in their communities. We can not merely just complain and grumble about it, we must engage our culture in helping them understand the problem of sin.

Make offshore work much safer with necessary lifesaving equipment
Lifesaving equipment should be part of any high quality vessel. This applies especially when you are working in the offshore business. This business is often regarded as a risky place to work. Reason for this are many storms and cold weather. Although, these are only the beginning of the risky factors of working in the offshore market. What makes working offshore particularly risky is the corrosive environment. The combination of salt and water, great temperature drops and, sometimes, bad maintenance, can be a dangerous one. Faulty equipment can cause very…Read More

Hypoglycemia is an abnormally low blood concentration of glucose, or sugar—basically, the opposite of diabetes. It's caused by excess insulin or insulin-like factors (e.g., insulinoma or an overdose of insulin administered medically). Because glucose is a main energy of source in an animal's body, a low amount will result in a severe decrease in energy levels, possibly to the point of loss of consciousness.
Some ferrets appear normal aside from findings associated with the underlying disease, while most have episodic signs, including:
Hepatic Disease
Reduced Intake/Underproduction
If you notice any of the aforementioned symptoms in your ferret, it is advisable to see a veterinarian immediately. If your ferret has already lost consciousness, or is visibly at the point of collapsing, you will need to call your veterinarian for instructions on immediate at-home treatment, followed by a visit with the doctor.
Even if you are able to treat your ferret at home during the episode of hypoglycemia, you will still need to see your veterinarian so that blood work can be done. Your veterinarian will need to do a complete blood profile, a chemical blood profile, a complete blood count, and a urinalysis. He or she may also recommend abdominal X-rays and an ultrasound, especially if he suspects cancer or other masses as the underlying cause.
Having the ability to produce disease
An in-depth examination of the properties of urine; used to determine the presence or absence of illness
A condition of poor health that results from poor feeding or no feeding at all
A hormone created by the pancreas that helps to regulate the flow of glucose
Low amounts of glucose in the blood
A condition in which the liver becomes inflamed
The condition of being drowsy, listless, or weak

Now that we have RapidMiner downloaded and installed, it's time to import a dataset so we can begin to examine it. Hopefully the quick overview of the GUI in our last post has given you enough to be able to navigate with some degree of effectiveness, but I'll go over it a little more this time around.
First you'll want to download the sample sales dataset to your desktop by clicking here. Then open RapidMiner and select "Import CSV" in the repository section.
Select the sales data CSV you just downloaded and click "Next".
Here is where RapidMiner gets a little brain-dead. Despite the fact that you are importing a CSV (COMMA separated value) file, RapidMiner assumes the separator is a semicolon. This will make your imported data useless if you don't correct it, so click on the "Comma" radio button to change the separator then click "Next".
The next screen will ask you to name your attribute types, but for the purposes of this tutorial we'll skip that. Click "Next".
On the next screen we are asked about the types of our attributes. For some reason RapidMiner thinks that all of our data falls into the "Polynomial" type, which is absolutely incorrect. We'll need to manually change those to the correct types, so for every column that is text choose "text", every column that has a date and time select "date_time", and every column that has number values select "integer." We won't be using the Latitude and Longitude columns so just deselect those at the top. Once again, click "Next."
Step 5 asks you to select a Repository to save your data to and give the dataset a name. Once you've done that click "Finish" and you should be taken to the Results page of RapidMiner, which looks like this:
Before we do any analysis of data using Processes, it's always a good idea to have a look to see what we're working with. The Results page has some good tools for doing just that, so let's use them. Click on "Statistics" in the left-hand side of the page and you should see this:
As you can see, the Statistics pane gives us a glimpse into what kind of data we have. We can see the dates our first and last orders were entered, what cities have the most orders and which have the least, and other summary statistics. See ing this information in text form is good, but to see it in a visualization we'll need to click on "Charts". We'll look at how product sales are going, so select "Product" under the "Group-by" and "Legend" columns and "Price" under the value column. Here's the result:
Obviously Product1 is a big seller for this company.
Now you know how to create a data repository, import data, and view summary statistics about that data. Next time we'll get into the real meat of RapidMiner; creating a process. See you soon.

The U.S. government, the West, NATO, Europe and their news media have jumped back into Cold War attitudes since early 2014 when a U.S.-backed coup overthrew Ukraine's elected president and prompted countermoves by Russia, setting the stage for an eventual nuclear showdown. War between nuclear-armed Russia and the United States. Believe it or not. The consecutive history of US efforts at overturning Russia and the Russian government is going on about 100 years.
After the Baltic States have joined the European Union now today we are being told that these countries, which are part of the energy system of the former Soviet Union and Russia, they must join the European Union's energy system. There it is the main reason for the US Russian Conflict.. oil and gas sales..
The US in it's aim for world dominance is spoiling for war, cataclysmic consequences notwithstanding, Russia the near-target, China, if the world survives, next in line. No wonder Putin's skepticism and dismissal of rhetoric concerning US-NATO intentions and actions, ample reason for the West's demonization of him and of Russia for the refusal to knuckle under to superior force.. Putin does not hide his disdain for Obama and nor do I.
We have two very distinct ways of also looking at this us Ukrainian conflict.. One is that the ethnic Russians of Ukraine who saw their president violently overthrown, and the other is the western Ukrainians, backed by the U.S., and in some degree the European Union, saying they got rid of a corrupt leader, through a revolution, if you will. That all next became the core problem between the U.S. and Russians. Instead of finding common factual points to agree on, there are these two distinctly different narratives about what went on there. The United States and mainstream media have taken a very propagandist view of what occurred in Ukraine in contrast to the Russians. The Russians have taken a very different view, which, perhaps to our amazement, is more accurate than what the United States is saying.. The Western media is working hard to sure that no one will hear, read the truth abut Russia, Ukraine and the valuable information they need to make logical assessments of events unfolding… all while The US and NATO moves more and more military East in order to get ready for war with Russia, after all what do they do with the soldiers who left Iraq, Afghanistan now? Winning this propaganda war battlefield of public opinion has never been so important nor so divisive. The western media's lies and assault on Russia approaches sensory overload, There is a vast ongoing propaganda war being played out – whose propaganda should we be worried about? The American one.. few American leaders really care about Ukraine itself. They treat it as a place to make money, to sell oil to , another big-power rivalry. Western support for Ukraine is to intimidate Russia. But by pushing a potentially hostile power onto Russia's borders, the Western leaders give Putin a chance to enjoy a sky-high approval ratings .The American propaganda barrage has not at all swayed the Russian people and government. Of course, the U.S. says they are all being propagandized by Russia Today and other Russian networks. Frankly, one can argue with some ways some things have been reported by RT or other Russian sources, but they have been doing a more accurate, on-the-ground job than the U.S. press corps has been.
Washington depict the Russian leader, Vladimir Putin, as a richly empowered thug who is using his vast resources to lash out against his neighbors, Europe, the United States and the world. In fact Putin is a dangerously weak who is desperately trying to prevent the consummation of a Washington-based plan to surround his country with unfriendly forces. In 2013 American-supported protesters succeeded in overthrowing Ukraine's elected government. The new regime endorsed the idea of inviting anti-Russian forces into Ukraine. That raised the specter of more American weapons directly on Russia's borders. No responsible Russian leader could tolerate this. All countries try to prevent the emergence of enemies on or near their borders. The Russians perspective, is that the United States is encroaching on its borders and threatening them in a strategic manner. They also look at what happened in Ukraine very differently. They see a U.S.-backed coup d'état in February 2014 that ousted an elected president and put in a regime that is very supportive of free market, neo-liberal policies, but also includes very strong right-wing elements, including neo-Nazis and far-right nationalists. A US crisis that was created and the related tensions continue to spiral out of control.
There was an armed Ukrainian uprising that involved some very far right neo-Nazi militias that had been organizing and penetrating into what became the Maidan protests against the decision by the elected President Yanukovych not to go ahead quickly with an association with the European Union. That became increasingly violent; including some mysterious sniper attacks killing police and demonstrators, and getting the two sides to go at each other.
There was a political effort on Feb. 21, 2014, where Yanukovych agreed to reduce his powers and have early elections so he could be elected out of office. It was signed by three European countries to guarantee it. The next day there was a coup. These right-wing groups surged forward, seizing buildings, and Yanukovych barely escaped with his life.
Very quickly, despite the very unconstitutional nature of this change of power, the United States and European Union recognized this as legitimate. But it was obviously something the ethnic Russians, especially those in the eastern and southern Ukraine, found objectionable. They were the bases of support for Yanukovych, so they began to rise up, and this coup d'état then merged into a civil war.
There's no question that the U.S. was supporting, through the National Endowment for Democracy, scores of political organizations that were working to overthrow the elected government. There was the famous phone conversation that was intercepted between Assistant Secretary of State Nuland and Ambassador Jeffrey Pyatt where they discussed who was going to take over after the change of power. Nuland put forward that Yatsenyuk "is the guy," who after the coup became the prime minister. There were all the markings of a coup d'état. More neutral observers, who have looked at this, including the head of the Stratfor think tank (George Friedman), have called it the most obvious coup he's ever seen.
In reality still the Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko announced that he is preparing for a full-scale Russian invasion. Meanwhile, President Obama is considering a proposal to allow US tanks and heavy weaponry used in a training exercise to remain in the Baltic states, on Russia's doorstep. Storing equipment there requires beefing up the infrastructure and security required to protect it, moves that would make it look like NATO is building military bases on Russia's border. Kiev is not blameless. Poroshenko has not held up his side of the Minsk agreements either, and his surprising appointment of ex-Georgian president Mikheil Saakashvili — a persona non grata in Moscow — as governor of the Odessa region was an unnecessary irritant. At the end of the day, Ukraine and Russia must find a way to live together that both sides accept.
Is Russia invading Ukraine or Ukraine invading Russia?
Would you seek refuge in the very arms of your "enemy"?
Last time I checked 1,000 Russian troops invaded Ukraine, or was it 9,000, or 7,000. I lose count, as do the script writers for Obama, Psaki, Porky, and Yats.
Here is a number that may shock some western European and American zombies, 20,000…
- 20,000 increase in Ukrainian men a week seeking refuge in Russia, to avoid Porky's military draft.
- 1.193 million Ukrainian men, conscription age, now staying in Russia.
- 2.5 million Ukrainian nationals (refugees) currently being taken care of (feed, clothed, etc…) in Russia.
If that's not voting with your feet (literally) than I don't know what is!
The above numbers should help any person with half a brain figure out who the real aggressor is, and who is doing the actual invading/destabilisation.
So I ask again…would you seek refuge in the very arms of your "enemy"?
How many Ukrainian refugees are the Europeans and Americans taking care of?
How many refugee centers does Poland have set up?
95 percent of the Russian, Ukrainian persons I talked to in North America do not hate each other
"People in Russia were asked what do they think first when hearing "Ukraine", "the Ukrainians".
The answers are different but most of the respondents smile and say they have only positive assossiations, many claim having relatives or close friends in Ukraine.
Some say they feel sorry for the "brainwashed" Ukrainians who are following the wrong path now. Many of the answers sound like: "We are the same people", "They are our brothers".
It is worth comparing with utterly aggressive rhetoric coming from Ukraine for almost two years. The Russians are blamed for everything happening in Ukraine, the appeals to "hang every Russian on a tree" are not rare even in post-maidan era."

Now in reality also the Nazi death camp Auschwitz was liberated a Red Army unit, which included Russians, Ukrainians, Kazakhs, Tatars and other ethnic groups that liberated the camp. Russia's sacrifices during World War II, which relieved Hitler's pressure on the Western front and probably saved England and possibly averted the invasion of the Western Hemisphere—a debt the beneficiaries have not paid, was still not acknowledged.
The Ukrainian nationalist and leader of the Ukrainian Bratstvo (Brotherhood) party Dmytro Korchyncky has urged others to apply the method the US used during WW2 in Donbass…bomb residential areas and create concentration camps for the residents of Lugansk and Donetsk.
"Our teachers of democracy are Americans. During the Second World War America maintained all democratic institutions, elections, and so forth, but nevertheless several million American citizens of Japanese origin were deported to concentration camps because of war, because they threatened national security. United States, maintaining democratic standards and high level of humanism in their country, carried out a nuclear strike on Japan, bombed residential neighborhoods in Germany. 80% of cities were bombed by American aviation, the doctrine was to bomb residential neighborhoods in order to demoralize German soldiers.
Ukraine must have the widest level of freedoms, we have little freedom, we need more freedom, but in the frontal zones and on the occupied territories, we must act like the Americans. If we can't regain the territory, they must become uninhabitable. If it can't be ours, it wan't be anybody's," – said Korchinsky. http://fortruss.blogspot.ca/2015/06/founder-of-ukrainian-una-unso-we-must.html
Around 30 percent of survey respondents in Ukraine believe that corruption should be punished with the death penalty, and 41 percent believe that the offence should carry a life sentence, according to a survey of 600 respondents across all regions of Ukraine between June 8 and 13.
Of the remainder of respondents, 22 percent believe that even such extreme measures would not help to overcome corruption, said Yelena Boyarkina, head of the Ukrainian sociological firm SocioStreamAG, which carried out the research: "Only four percent believe that the current system of combatting corruption gives effective results."
Recently Gazprom got $786 million of its $3.5 billion gas debt payed by the Ukraine government. The money was most likely part of a U.S. $1 billion package of economic and energy aid given out in early March. So, in essence, the U.S. taxpayer just picked up Ukraine's gas and oil bill for February and March. Remember that $1 billion pledged to Ukraine from Obama in early March, when this whole Ukraine thing was just beginning to unravel. Yup, the U.S. taxpayer just picked up the first instalment of Ukraine's gas bill. Eventually the whole bill will be fully paid by the U.S. and the EU
taxpayers government(s) because without gas then the Ukrainian tanks and airplanes keeping the civil war alive will not be able to run… or else how else can Obama help promote democracy and protect Ukraine…a country sharing a border with the U.S. and cultural, ethnic, religious and historical ties with America going back hundred and thousands of years…oh wait that doesn't sound right??? cultural, ethnic, religious and historical ties with Russia going back hundred and thousands of years.
The US and NATO this month are practising for war in Poland and the Baltic States, a U.S. military convoy recently travelled across Eastern and Central Europe and Washington is reportedly debating whether to store heavy military equipment in several Baltic and Eastern European countries bordering Russia. Amid growing Baltic conflict , Washington is "poised to station battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other heavy weapons for as many as 5,000 American troops in several Baltic and Eastern European countries." This planned U.S. action would amount to "the most aggressive step by the Pentagon and NATO" since the Cold War and "Russia would be left with no other option but to boost its troops and forces on the western flank." In response Russia is pouring troops and weapons — including missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads — into its western exclave of Kaliningrad at such a rate that the region is now one of Europe's most militarized places that will definitely lead to a next big world wide war. As the confrontation with the West heats up, Russia is finding Kaliningrad the "obvious place" to deploy more military hardware, Annexed from Germany in 1945, Kaliningrad is a closed military zone meaning only someone with special permission could get in. It is now home to Russia's Baltic Sea Fleet, as well as the Chernyakhovsk and Donskoye air bases, with thousands of Russian troops stationed there. Kaliningrad also serves as the likely starting point for the numerous reports of Russian military activity over Baltic airspace and in the Baltic Sea. What the neo-cons often fail to understand, as we've seen very painfully in places like Iraq, is they think things are going to be easy, they can simply put in somebody like Chalabi in Baghdad and everything will work out fine. But that often isn't the way it goes. In the case of Russia, the great danger is that if the U.S. could de-stabilize Russia, somehow create a political crisis there. Then you can get into a situation where a nuclear confrontation would become a very real possibility. The plans to station U.S. heavy weaponry in Eastern Europe, was met with serious concern and apprehension in Moscow . Russia Urges U.S. Not to Deploy Weapons to Border Areas," (June 16), is indicative of the concern raised by the latest US move, itself—as Putin and Russia has noted. "'We hope that reason will prevail and the situation in Europe will be prevented from sliding into a new military confrontation which may have dangerous consequences.'"

Armed with an improved understanding of the "stratigraphic complexities … and the importance of low angle structures and their contribution to gold deposition" at Red Hill, NuLegacy's management team is eager to follow-up recent high-grade drill hits at the Serena target immediately. But it will also continue to drill widely spaced targets elsewhere in a bid to replicate the results and apply its expanded knowledge kit as broadly as possible on the 98sq.km property.
"We will be drilling more holes to follow up on the excellent results in SR18-02 [including 8.7m at 16.9gpt from 283.7m), but that same set-up of structure and stratigraphy can be seen in numerous places on the property," NuLegacy president and CEO Anderson told Mining Journal.
"So we feel it would be a big mistake to focus on only one area." Anderson said all junior companies had a geological analogue of what they were looking for.
"Ours just happens to be [Barrick Gold's] Goldrush – the best gold deposit found on planet Earth in the last decade, which sits just five miles away from where we are working. Our ambition is to find something similar on our ground, where we know the same geologic setting exists, and where we are now encountering similar grades."
Anderson said at the Beaver Creek Precious Metals Summit in Colorado NuLegacy had three key former Barrick executives on its board in Alex Davidson, Alan Hill and Barrick's ex-North America exporation vice president, Edward Cope.

Youth and Scholarships
Youth Scholarship Information
The AHBAO awards an $500 scholarship each year to a graduating high school senior. The check to be written to an 2 to 4 year institute of higher education, and can be used for tuition or books. The scholarship must be used within 2 years of the date it is presented or the funds will be forfeited by winner and reverted to the AHBAO Youth Scholarship account.
2016 AHBAO Scholarship WinnerYou don't have to spend a lot of time with Keith Butts to feel his passion for horses and see his desire to succeed. And it is those qualities that convinced the Arabian Horse Breeders Association of Oregon that he should be this year's youth scholarship winner. With those funds, Butts plans to attend Mt.Hood Community College and pursue a career as a diesel technician.
While the future still beckons with potential, his past is pretty impressive. He was a four-year competitor in OHSET, winning district titles in saddle seat all four years and has been a long-time member of 4-H. He has a love for the Arabian horse that was nurtured by his family, which has owned Arabians for 15 years. "We have never had one we did not like," Butts said of the breed. At home, he's got an 11-year-old Arabian ex-cart horse that does a little bit of everything in OHSET, from saddle seat to team penning to drill and everything in-between," he said. "People at our barn that we board at and the shows we take him to always seem to be impressed at what he does."
Butts joined the AHBAO in January 2015 and has been active during his short time, among those helping at a trail clinic sponsored by Pacific Training Center and doing work at the AHBAO fall schooling show for all breeds, where he served as ring steward the first half of the show, then handed out ribbons the second half. He also helped with prep, set-up and cleanup at the event. From a competitive standpoint, he cited the four district titles as highlights, as well as "When I competed at the 2015 fall Rally in the Valley show and I won a couple of classes and got reserve champion in a western class, because that is the highest awards and most fun I've had at a horse show."
Butts graduated from Sandy High School this past spring and is currently apprenticing at an automotive shop in Sandy, as well as keeping his hand in the horse world by apprenticing with Karla Moffitt at Pacific Training Center. "It is important to me for the upcoming youth to become more involved in the Region 4 activities," he said. "Being a youth member has made me more confident in everyday life."

Good afternoon, looking at turnout and trends, it's always difficult to engage parents of HS students in our 21st Century Parent Involvement activities. We have the usual career night, college night, FAFSA night…that may draw a few parents. I'm interested in what others are doing with parents of Middle School and HS students, any ideas would be great.

The Venice International Film Festival said Friday that Michael Mann will chair its international jury, calling the director of "Heat" and "Public Enemies" a "total filmmaker."
The jury will be responsible for selecting the recipient of the festival's top prize, the Golden Lion, and other awards.
Mann is best known for his stylish big screen crime dramas like "Collateral." He has also won praise for his adventure film "The Last of the Mohicans," the boxing biopic "Ali," and the newsroom thriller "The Insider," for which he earned a best director Oscar nomination.
Also read: Michael Mann Wanted Mike Wallace to Play Himself in 'The Insider' (Exclusive)
His first major success, however, came on the small screen, where he helped make it safe for tough guys to wear pastels with "Miami Vice." Less fruitful was "Luck," a horse racing drama Mann executive produced for HBO. The show was cancelled last spring after the deaths of three horses.
Mann's producing credits also include "The Aviator" and "Hancock."
Venice marks the first time that Mann will chair the jury of an international festival.

With Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus releasing this week, it got me thinking of other video game reboots over the recent years that just worked extremely well.
These games include some of gaming's biggest series that were in dire need of a new and refreshing direction for the series. Some of these games prove that sometimes going back to the drawing board is often the best thing you can do.
Tomb Raider
If you have been gaming since the original PlayStation days you would know that Lara has been through some rather dramatic changes through her 25 years of gaming. She was the dual-pistol bombshell that explored ruins, killed blood-hungry tigers, and locked her butler in the fridge. Fast forward a few years and we met the younger, yes younger, Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider Legend trilogy. This version of Lara was true to the classic game's mechanics and gameplay but was modernized for a new audience.
The Legends series took us right through until the PS3 days but after the drawn-out story and rinse and repeat of the same mechanics, the series ended with a sigh of relief from its fans. Little did we know that one day we would be playing the third reboot in the series starring a younger Lara who is not only learning her way up the Tomb Raider ranks but is one of the strongest leads we have seen in the series. The Tomb Raider 2013 reboot was the best thing to happen to the series as it has taken us on exhilarating experiences all while watching Lara grow into the strong female lead we met back in the 90s.
Ratchet and Clank
Ratchet and Clank is another series that has been through a few reboots already. The original trilogy on the PS2 as a huge success and introduced our favourite furry PlayStation mascot to the world. Starring Captain Quark, and the hilarious Dr Naferious, it was a typical intergalactic good versus evil battle and everyone loved it.
Enter the PS3 and which it came with a rather strange mixture of Ratchet and Clank games. Tools of Destruction was a refreshing take on the series that introduced a new villain Emperor Percival Tachyon, while at the same time keeping the game focused on the things we loved from the series. Unfortunately, the series was not strong enough to keep gamers interested as the later games mainly A Crack in Time, and Nexus were criticized for its confusing story and shorter experience. While all this was happening we also had to deal with two spin-off games in the series Q-Force and All 4 One. These games also felt very far from what made the series so great.
Devil May Cry
The Devil May Cry series could be one of the very few games on this list that received a reboot when there was very little reason to reboot it in the first place. The original Devil May Cry all the way to the fourth instalment were actually really good, so much so that when DMC: Devil May Cry released back in 2012, the game actually got some harsh feedback from fans due to its huge step away from the main series.
While this was the case, I truly believe that while it was not as good as the original series, DMC: Devil May Cry delivered a great take on the heaven versus hell genre and managed to tap into the mechanics that made the original series great like its hardcore button mashing combo system, fantastic action set pieces, and of course the great synopsis that revolved around Dante and his journey for vengeance. I hope we see a sequel to this title very soon.
DOOM is one of the fine examples of how to modernize a video game series while still keeping it fresh and relevant for gamers who grew up with the series and those who are playing it for the first time. DOOM is every gamer's childhood FPS. The game that introduced us all to those pink demon goat things that shoot green fireballs and those damn floating heads that smile like they want to eat you alive.
If you consider DOOM 3 as a reboot, which is actually is due to the way it handles many of its mechanics, DOOM has been rebooted three times now and the third time is a sure charm. Everything that made the original DOS series great like enemies, creatively-designed levels, and of course the epic weapons, were all included in DOOM 2016 and they felt so nostalgic and the development team put so much effort into making the game feel so classicly authentic, that it was an instant hit.
Need for Speed
Ah, the Need for Speed series. This is a perfect example of a studio trying to find its roots with a series that was once the best racing experience in gaming. The franchise has been rebooted so many times that no one really knows what they are getting themselves into when a Need for Speed comes their way, and secretly they all want to just go back to the Underground 2 days.
Need for Speed, then Underground, Hot Pursuit, Shift, Undercover, Rivals, Carbon, and no Rivals. These are just a few examples of where the Need for Speed series has gone and every name on that list has seen a new gameplay transition from the past game. Why is this on this list you ask? Well, many of these entries were actually really good, so good that a reboot was not actually necessary. Could Need for Speed: Rivals finally be the garage that the series decides to park in and stay in for good? Who knows?

Review from 4 bars rest – england
Brass Opus
Goteborg Brass, New Zealand Community Trust Woolston Brass, Addington Brass
Guest Soloist: Richard Marshall
Christchurch Town Hall
New Zealand
Sunday 19th March
Excerpts from the full review. (to read the full review go here.)
Richard Marshall (here as a soloist on behalf of Besson Musical Instruments, but unfortunately not as a contest player with any band) performed at the Town Hall as the guest soloist in a massed bands concert.
He indeed was the headline act, and over 500 people made the effort on a sultry night to hear him perform quite brilliantly with Addington Brass, whilst we are sure the audience was also swelled by the fact that the Goteborg Brass Band were also here making a concert appearance as part of their extended Australian/New Zealand Tour.
The event also benefited from some proper National television coverage as well, as NZ Channel One sent a crew to interview Richard as well as the conductor of Goteborg, Bengt Eklund (remember him 4BR fans from Norway this year? Although we didn't quite get to speak to him this time, as 4BR had to be whisked off to the bar with Steve Stuart for a soft drink or three!) and the Principal Cornet of the Woolston Band, Kevin Hickman, who some people in the Hillingdon Band will remember as he was playing with the band a few years ago when he was on his back packing travels. It meant that an anticipated crowd of around 300 was swelled up, and that must have been great for the promoters, the Second Division Addington Brass who invested a lot of time and money in putting on this event.
Richard Marshall meanwhile was a fresh as a daisy and produced some startlingly good trumpet playing on the Harry James favourite 'Concerto for Trumpet' and the old Kenny Baker classic 'Virtuosity' that stunned the audience with its projection, authentic style (all slightly late night jazz club grubby) and technique. There are not many cornet players around who can sound as good (or as at ease) on a trumpet as this, and it was exhibition stuff of the highest order.
Just in case they had forget though that he was a cornet player of the highest class, he also popped in a cracking little account of the old favourite, 'Rule Britannia' (although we don't think it would have gone down too well in a couple of months time if the All Blacks lose the First Test here) and a beautiful rendition of the Maori tune, 'Hine E Hine' which was specially arranged for him for this short concert tour by the conductor of the Addington Band, Barry Brinson. It was a super touch.
The New Zealander's certainly got their money's worth from him though, and he even had the lip to perform the duet from Rossini's 'Two Cats' with the band solo trombone player (Philip Spriggs), and so with his contribution finally over and done with he had time to sell plenty of his new CD "Blaze" and prepare himself for a well earned break in Queenstown. He deserved it.
Addington Brass themselves opened the concert under the fine direction of Barry Brinson, who also happens to be one heck of a jazz pianist, with a neat account of 'Shield of Liberty' and a safe rendition of Goff Richards arrangement of 'Shepherd's Song'. The 'Danse Macabre' wasn't a success though – a bit macabre for the wrong reasons, but they accompanied Richard Marsahll well enough and produced a neat bit of Duke Ellington to round off the first half with his classic old 'Caravan' in a very good arrangement from the MD.
That just left Woolston (the local band, and something of an institution in these parts), who provided just the two items in the form of the hymn tune 'I know thou art Mine' and a performance of 'Paganini Variations'. The New Zealand Championships is made up of three parts: Hymn tune, Set Work and Own Choice, so it was an opportunity for the band to give their alleged selections an airing.
And a good airing they were too with some notable solo playing from all the players around the stand providing a full rounded band sound linked to some excellent direction from the man in the middle, David Gallaher. With a week to go, they too will head for fog bound Wellington (the airport of which has been closed for three days now) confident of regaining their National title for the first time sine 2002.
The concert was rounded off with the traditional speech making (some things never change wherever you are in the world) and a rip through 'Procession to the Minster' before the players headed for the pub by the Jade Stadium Rugby Ground called "Robbies" (any Lions supporters, please note, as it is a great watering hole) and Richard Marshall headed for a short holiday.

The Belk Bowl. Charlotte. 8:00.
The match-up?
The Wolfpack and the Louisville Cardinals.
We've never beaten the Cardinals before. This season, both teams were "comeback kids," teams no one expected to get bowl bids based on the first half of the season, but managed to come back in the second half of the season and blow through. So I knew it was going to be a tight game.
Louisville had ten true freshmen starting this game, six on offense and four on defense. One of those ten? Their quarterback. If you don't know football, I will just tell you that that is INSANE.
It was a ridiculous game overall. There were a lot of sloppy mistakes on both sides, and the momentum went back and forth all the time. Neither team was clearly crushing the other.
But we won. :) And what a way to end for seniors like Audie Cole
a defensive beast, an unstoppable force against extremely talented quarterbacks, and TJ Graham
who made more beautiful runs and touchdowns than I can even remember this season, without whom we would not have made it this far.
There are a few other players that must get credit for how my Wolfpack (yes, I call them mine) landed themselves first IN the Belk Bowl, and then ownership of the Belk Bowl trophy. CJ Wilson
who, thank the Lord, has another year of eligibility, and like Graham, can run through tacklers like lightning. And an obvious choice, our quarterback, Mike Glennon
who stepped into the seemingly-impossible-to-fill shoes left behind by Russell Wilson and subsequently proved that he can take care of the Wolfpack just fine. Thank heavens this kid has another year to go, too, because he will only get better.
And while Mike Glennon was named Player of the Game, my kudos are going to the master of interceptions, David Amerson.
This man right here is a true sophomore. Coming into tonight, he had a record of 11 interceptions, the highest in the entire COUNTRY right now, and tied for the 4th highest of all time. Tonight? He made two more interceptions, one of which was a run across almost the entire span of the field which led to a touchdown. That's thirteen interceptions. And in one season, too! He didn't make any last year! That bumped him up to tied for the second highest number of interceptions of all time. And did I mention he's A SOPHOMORE?!?! The first place number? Fourteen. I predict before his junior year is over, he'll have this record all to himself.
I love my Wolfpack so, so very much. It's going to be so weird going to the basketball game on Thursday and not cheering for them, but I can't betray my school. ;)
The rest of today sucked for more reasons than one, so that's why that's all this blog post is about.

By Josh Bersin, Principal and Founder, Bersin by Deloitte
I can tell the economy is recovering: we're suddenly seeing companies tell us that "employee retention" has become a critical issue. Let me give you some research-based perspectives on this critically important topic.
What does Retention Mean?
Nearly all companies measure turnover. In some industries (retail, customer service, hospitality) turnover rates of 30-40% are common and sometimes even accepted. I had a conversation with one HR manager who told me "we design our organization around high-turnover: we make sure jobs are easy to learn so we can rapidly assimilate new people."
While this may be a reality in many companies, our research shows that it's not a sound strategy. Regardless of the role they play, tenured employees drive far greater value than those who are "cycling through" the business…….

European workshops
A series of four European workshops is arranged by GrowSmarter to showcase the experiences of the Lighthouse Cities in implementing the smart solutions.
The workshops create a space for peer-to-peer exchange between city counterparts to discuss the opportunities for replication in the local setting and to learn from demonstration and implementation processes in the Lighthouse Cities, the replication process from the Follower Cities and to hear from our industrial partners.
The next European workshop will take place in Brussels during the European Week of Regions and Cities. Read more and register here.
REPLICATION WORKSHOP IN GRAZ - June 2018
Coordinated by ICLEI, the second replication workshop to support Graz in accelerating the implementation of smart solutions in the city was held in June 2018. Stockholm, Barcelona and Cologne shared their experience in the different solutions implemented, especially in the areas of big open data platforms, sustainable mobility and energy efficiency. The Workshop had with the participation of more that 30 participants. City hall authorities, private sector and research stakeholders and grow smarter partners. Graz shared their smart city strategy by 2050 and their aim to enhance the sustainability of the city towards improving the quality of live of its citizens. www.smartcitygraz.at.
Solutions discussed in an interactive session where participants identified the challenges key opportunities of the solutions implementation for further replication with success; included:
- Big open data platforms, as key drivers to address the digital transformation of cities; within their enabling capacity to convert data generated by sensors and city solutions into valuable information for effective planning and decision making. Graz is currently developing its open data platform so the experience of BCN, COL & Stockholm is very good for them.
- Urban –smart infrastructure. Solutions like smart lighting solutions were discussed too. o Sustainable mobility options, especially to enhance a sustainable delivery of goods and services in the city historic center, considered World Heritage. Graz is evaluating options to enhance sustainable urban freight.
- District energy solutions, Gray currently gets its energy from a fossil fuel private-owned plant outside the city borders. A transformation of the energy matrix of Graz is needed to enhance the use of new and renewable sources of energy.

TOKYO — Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda announced on Monday night that he would resign, abruptly ending his chronically unpopular government after just a year and leaving Japan's governing party scrambling to find fresh leadership ahead of crucial national elections.
Mr. Fukuda's surprise announcement, made at a hastily called news conference, startled Japan and appeared to plunge the world's second largest economy into further political confusion. Last year, Mr. Fukuda's predecessor, the rightist Shinzo Abe, made an equally sudden resignation.
Mr. Fukuda's decision was particularly unexpected because he took office last September as a veteran political insider widely counted on, after Mr. Abe's hasty departure, to bring stability and restore the Liberal Democratic Party's tarnished credibility. In the end, Mr. Fukuda, 72, lasted about as long as Mr. Abe, roughly a year.
His resignation was also surprising to many because it came just a month after he had reshuffled his cabinet, and just days after he unveiled a $17 billion economic stimulus package.
Still, there had been widespread speculation that Mr. Fukuda, suffering from low ratings, might resign before the coming national elections, to give the party a chance to install a more popular leader. According to that thinking, the governing party might then call a snap election, hoping to ride the new leader's initial wave of approval to victory in the polls.Continue reading the main story
Most speculation on a successor has focused on Taro Aso, an outspoken, conservative former foreign minister who is now secretary general of the Liberal Democratic Party. Mr. Aso, whom Mr. Fukuda defeated to become prime minister last year, has not said whether he will run again.
The Liberal Democrats will convene to select their new leader. Since they control the lower house of Parliament, which chooses the prime minister, their selection will automatically acquire the post. The selection process is expected to take about two weeks, during which time Mr. Fukuda will remain in office.
Mr. Fukuda, whose brief and unsuccessful term makes him unlikely to be one of the most favorably remembered Japanese prime ministers, fumed that he faced an uphill battle almost as soon as he took office. His short stint in office was also marked by a series of missteps and scandals, including allegations of graft at the Defense Ministry and his own cavalier comments about the government's apparent loss of the pension records of tens of millions of Japanese.
Despite his political credentials, he proved incapable of breaking a parliamentary deadlock that delayed the selection of a new central bank chief and the renewal of a law allowing Japanese ships to refuel American and other vessels involved in the war in Afghanistan. These setbacks, along with the owlish Mr. Fukuda's own colorless style, hurt his approval ratings, which dropped below 30 percent in recent polls.
"To be honest, from the beginning, longstanding problems appeared one after the other, and I had to face them," Mr. Fukuda said at the news conference, which was nationally televised. "Dealing with them worked me to death."
He said he wanted to get out of the way for a new leader to break the current stalemate in Parliament, where the opposition controls the upper house, and to prepare the party for the elections.
"This is the perfect timing to not cause people too much trouble," Mr. Fukuda said.
However, business leaders and opposition politicians were quick to criticize his abrupt exit, especially after Mr. Abe's sudden departure.
"It is an utterly irresponsible way to quit," Kozo Watanabe, a senior adviser at the Democratic Party, was quoted as saying by Kyodo News. "I cannot help worrying about what will happen to this country's politics."
Indeed, a lack of strong leadership has plagued Japan, even as it has grappled with a host of new problems, including the rise of neighboring China and a slowdown in its $4.7 trillion economy. The resignations of both Mr. Fukuda and Mr. Abe, who led short-lived, unpopular governments, have highlighted the lack of stability here since the popular Junichiro Koizumi stepped down two years ago.Continue reading the main story

Turn nonworking refrigerators into grow boxes using either soil or hydroponic systems. Using a fridge as a grow box is one way to recycle an appliance. People with limited space can use this style grow box to start seeds and to grow their own produce if they do not have land available.
Step 1
Stand the fridge upright and check that the door seals completely. Remove the freon, compressor, and coils from the fridge. To remove freon you cut the larger of the two lines running along the back side of the refrigerator. Spray the interior of the fridge with all purpose cleaner, wipe it down, and rinse thoroughly.
Step 2
Place a grow light in the fridge that provides optimal light for all plants. Drill a hole through the back of the refrigerator just big enough for the power cord to slide through.
Step 3
Install grow lights with chains so that the lights hang down. Slide the power cord through the hole and seal it with silicone.
Step 4
Drill a hole in the rear of the refrigerator the same size as the exhaust fan. Insert the fan with the back sticking out of the fridge. Seal around the hole with silicone.
Step 5
Drill a second hole in the rear of the fridge the same size as the small fan. Insert the fan and seal with silicone.
Step 6
Use existing shelving in the refrigerator to place flats of seeds. Keep the door closed unless you are maintaining the grow box.

The use of substitution in ICT is essentially using computer technology to perform the same task that was done before the use of computers ("SAMR Model – Technology Is Learning", 2018).
An example of this would be substituting a physical book and worksheets to a virtual and interactive copy of the text through the use of an application such as Notability. An activity with the use of this app involve students accessing the uploaded document on their own device, and are then able to take notes over the text and answer any questions or activities provided by the teacher. The use of this app is an effective ICT learning activity as the work completed by students is automatically saved to their server alleviating the problem of 'lost work'. The use of ICT in this context also removes printing and photocopying multiple worksheets that students must then cut & paste into their workbooks. The only downfall of this app is that student work cannot be viewed from the teacher's device requiring the teacher to collect student devices to mark work.
Students completing an assignment that requires them to provide an overview of information as hand written content with images from magazines can be substituted to an ICT activity through presentation software (such as PowerPoint or Prezi) to construct a presentation with the same information. Allowing students to use ICT to complete an activity such as this not only provides students with opportunities to develop their research and referencing skills, but also reduces the inconvenience of not finding the image they desire in magazines or worry about their work getting lost. Students' work is saved to their user's server & is easily delivered to the teacher for marking through email or Airdrop.

In 1876, the Dorsland Trekkers named this waterhole (Afrikaans for 'reed spring') after the Phragmites australis reeds that used to grow here. The grave of Johanna Alberts, a trekker who died here in 1876 is found nearby.
About: The elephants made short work of the Pragmites reeds and the waterhole is now home to the hardier Typha species.
The bushes behind the crumbling remains of an old building have become a favourite resting spot for lion. This structure was once the site of a factory that harvested bone meal from the remains of zebra culled during the 1950's.
Other common sightings include a pair of Egyptian geese, kori bustards, springbok and elephant. In fact, all the species present in Etosha have been spotted here at some time.
Rietfontein is one of the best-known waterholes in the park and much loved by birdwatchers.
Water Source: Artesian spring
Water Availability: Very good, sweet water which serves hundreds of elephant and plains game every day.
Game: All species of animal in the park, look out for:
