Off Camera Flash | 5 Tips to Get You Started
When I first began my foray into the world of photography, the thought of having to deal with off camera lighting was overwhelming and frightening! As I progressed, however, I quickly began to notice the value that lighting might add to my approach. Eventually, I took the plunge and ordered my first speed light.
The first time I took a photo using my flash that wasn't completely washed out, the level of sharpness and the potential for complete control of my photos blew me away! Lighting is one of the most important pieces of the photographic puzzle. We fit it together to create our masterpieces (some of you do anyway…I'm still making pictures and hope to make a masterpiece someday). In fact, given that photos cannot occur without light, it is the most important piece. It provides sharpness, drama, texture, mood, and helps us show or capture motion cleanly. It can evoke an emotional response and elevate a good photo to the realm of the phenomenal. Simply put, if you are serious about being the best photographer you can be, lighting is key.
That being said, it can be pretty overwhelming if you allow it to be. My purpose is to simplify off camera flash as much as I can. There have been textbooks, websites, video and blog series all devoted to the subject of lighting and I am not going to present brand new never-before-seen concepts here. I am going to provide a simple guide that will help you get started.
What Do You Actually Need To Get Started?
Probably not as much as you think! You might have noticed that some photographers use more than one light, multiple modifiers, and have tens of thousands of dollars of equipment at their disposal. What you don't know is that the majority of them began by working with one light. In fact, many still recommend that you begin each image with a single light and only add additional lights as you find you have the need. Beyond your primary light source, you just need a way to trigger your flash, a modifier, and something to hold it (a Light stand, assistant, or your free hand).
Go Wireless!
Once you have settled on your chosen off camera flash source, you have to trigger it. You have a couple options here – wired or wireless. In the not too distant past, wired triggers were the way to go for budget conscious photographers just getting into the off camera flash game. These days, the budget argument isn't nearly as convincing. You can find wireless radio triggers for less than you can pick up a PC sync cable hotshoe adapter and, while the PC cable and adapter may be somewhat more reliable than an inexpensive wireless trigger set, the ease of use and convenience of not being tethered to a wire connected to your camera is hard to beat. Having that freedom can inspire more creative lighting setups, placement, and lower stress levels by taking one more thing you have to worry about off your mental plate during a photo session.
Don't Break The Bank!
Moving your flash off camera, even if you don't have one yet, doesn't have to be a budget busting endeavor. Take some time to consider how you are going to use your flash before making any purchases and take those considerations into account. Are you going to mainly be in a studio/controlled environment? Research a nice entry level strobe (or a more expensive one if you have the budget) and go for it! Want something portable and small? Check out some of the lower cost, manual speedlights that are out now. With a bit of research, you can find good quality, inexpensive speedlights, triggers, light stands, etc. that will last you for years without breaking your budget.
Don't Forget a Modifier!
The larger your light source, the softer the light. Modifiers simply increase the size and change the shape of your light source. As will anything else I've discussed so far, you can spend as much or as little on a modifier as you would like. You can find a decent sized, diffused umbrella for incredibly cheap online or you can spend thousands of dollars on the latest softbox by one of the big manufacturers. If you are just starting out, I would recommend finding less expensive and committing to it for a period of time. By doing this, you will become much more knowledgeable about your modifier than if you run out and buy three or four different types. Once you begin to get comfortable with an umbrella, for example, and you need something in addition to it, that's the time to start looking to into trying different modifier options. Check out some of the DIY options for an inexpensive way to try out new things before spending a lot of money on a brand name.
And Definitely Don't Forget a Reflector!
This is perhaps one of the most versatile tools a photographer can use when discussing light. A 5-in-1 reflector gives you a white, gold, silver, and black reflector options and can also be used to diffuse a flash or sunlight. Having this on hand gives you a lot more control and more options when it comes to your lighting setups.
It seems that, in some ways, there is an evolution of thought that perhaps every photographer goes through. It starts with natural lighting, moves on to flash and then off camera flash, then loses its mind for a bit by focusing on elaborate multiple light setups, and then finally settles down to a comfortable "as many as necessary and no more" approach. If you can strive to start off in that final stage, you will be calmer, have lower blood pressure, and fewer wrinkles from stress…hopefully!
You can make lighting as complicated as you would like but at the end of the session all it boils down to is, did you get the shot? That's what matters to you, that's what matters to your clients. Don't get hung up on trying to use a certain look or setup because you saw a video or read an article about someone else using it. Choose your tools carefully, learn how to use them, and apply them as just that – tools. Take time to learn as much as you can about lighting with resources like the greatly anticipated Lighting 101 DVD that will be releasing soon. Learn everything you possibly can and then apply only what you need to get the shot you envision. Approaching your off camera lighting from this perspective will help you avoid the pitfalls so many photographers fall into. Instead, you'll focus on your art, grow as a photographer more quickly, and have a lot more fun in the process.

November 01, 2012 08:00 ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 1, 2012) - Prophecy Platinum Corp. ("Prophecy" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:NKL)(OTCQX:PNIKF)(FRANKFURT:P94P) is pleased to announce the appointment of John Sagman, P.Eng., as Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Sagman is a Professional Engineer with over thirty years of mining experience including the design, development, commissioning and management of both open pit and underground mining projects.
Prior to joining Prophecy, Mr. Sagman held the position of Vice President of Technical Services with Capstone Mining Corp. where he was responsible for overseeing Capstone's reserve estimates, prefeasibility studies, and improvement of technical processes. Specifically, Mr. Sagman led Phase V and Phase VI Prefeasibility studies at the Minto copper-gold mine located approximately 150km northeast from Prophecy's Wellgreen deposit in the Yukon. Minto is an open pit mine that produced 37 million pounds of copper in 2011.
Mr. Sagman's professional background further includes ten years with Vale Inco Ltd., most recently acting as Senior Project Manager responsible for the Totten Nickel-Copper-PGM mine in Sudbury, Ontario. Totten is located approximately 30km east of Prophecy's Shakespeare Nickel-Copper-PGM mine. At Totten, from 2006 to 2010, Mr. Sagman led the project team to complete a Feasibility Study and then moved on to Engineer, Procure, Construct, and Manage (EPCM) the Totten Project, overseeing a $400 million budget.
Before joining Vale Inco, Mr. Sagman was with Xstrata Nickel, where he directly managed operations at the Craig, Fraser, Lockerby, and Strathcona mines. The four mines combined produced over 100 million pounds of nickel and 100 million pounds of copper during this period. During his tenure at Xstrata, Mr. Sagman also oversaw the start-up of the SMRQ Raglan Nickel-Copper-PGM project that included the marine facility, surface infrastructure, mine and mill operations.
Prior to Xstrata, John spent ten years with Placer Dome Inc., acting as Senior Mining Engineer at the Gibraltar Open Pit mine as well as managing the Campbell Mine Reid Shaft and Hoist Plant project.
Mr. Sagman's addition to Prophecy team represents a very exciting milestone. His extensive experience developing, building and operating nickel-PGM and open pit mines in northern climates will be invaluable to Prophecy as it continues the development of the Wellgreen Project in the Yukon. The Company is assembling a new leadership team with proven expertise in the development and operation of successful mining projects and will have subsequent executive-level appointments to announce in the near future. Mr. Sagman's impressive credentials are an indication of the calibre of individuals who will be coming on board to lead the development of Prophecy's projects.
A 1981 graduate of the University of British Columbia, John holds a degree in Mining and Mineral Process Engineering, and received his Project Management Professional designation in 2010. He is licensed with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of British Columbia and is a member of the Canadian Institute of Mining, CIM.

The Kingdom's two royalist parties will hold a joint congress early next year, marking a key milestone in the planned reunification of the groups ahead of commune elections in 2012.
Funcinpec President Keo Puth Reaksmey said his party and the Nationalist Party, formerly the Norodom Ranariddh Party, will hold the congress in February or March in a bid to cement their merger.
He said the new party, which will go under the Funcinpec banner, would also make an effort to attract past members of the royalist movement, many of whom have defected to the ruling Cambodian People's Party and other opposition groups since Funcinpec split in acrimony in 2006.
It is still uncertain whether Prince Norodom Ranariddh, Funcinpec's former president, will return from retirement to lead the party. The veteran politician retired from politics in October 2008.
"Everything is up to Samdech Krompreah's decision as to whether or not [he] will re-enter politics," Keo Puth Reaksmey said.
"We are going ahead. If the prince is with us, we will get along better, but we will still go ahead without the prince."
Nationalist Party spokesman Pen Sangha said both parties' leaders planned to formally invite Prince Ranariddh to head the new-look Funcinpec.
"So far we have not written an official letter to invite the prince. We should be optimistic and must have a step-by-step strategy in place," Pen Sangha said.
Since romping to victory in United Nations-backed elections in 1993, the royalist movement has experienced a steady decline at the polls.
In 2006, Prince Ranariddh was removed as Funcinpec party president in connection with accusations he embezzled funds from the sale of party property. The self-named breakaway party he formed, renamed the Nationalist Party earlier this year, has fared no better. The two parties won just four seats between them in the 2008 elections.
But Prince Ranariddh's spokesman Chea Chanboribo dismissed speculation the veteran politician, currently an adviser to King Norodom Sihamoni, is planning a political comeback.
He also criticised Funcinpec officials for driving the Prince out in 2006, and now expecting favours from him as they seek to resurrect the party's political fortunes.
"Funcinpec's [officials] have criticised the prince for leading the party down and down until they fired the prince as party president. Now when they are stuck, they call for the prince, but everything is too late," Chea Chanboribo said.
"It is better that the Prince stays neutral and works for humanity and for the nation."

I am all for organic produce, sustainable agriculture, etc.
Half of my diet is organic.
But I honestly think the anti-GMO debate is overblown and exaggerated.
Genes expressed in plants cannot be expressed in the gut bacteria and again would have difficulty penetrating the gut biofilms where the gene transfer takes place.
GMO genes do not produce anything that is toxic from what I've researched.
I am very interested in real medical/ biomedical literature regarding consumption of GMOs but there is no value for me in the pig video.
Also, Roundup and other agro chemicals are a different topic.

C.) predecessor of modern science of nutrition, used to run public class teaching how to handle the fresh ingredients and cook delicious recipes. Not to mention that Sicily was the frist place in Europe, where in the XV c. rise was cultivated, and that Procopio de' Coltelli in the 17th c. exported to France the unique Sicilian tradition of the sorbetto, that became famous as ice-cream. Ostrogoths and Byzantines, Arabs, Normans and Aragons all added something to the local culture, and this tour will disclose how, through the centuries, the many influences were adapted to the local taste, modified, enriched and elaborated, making the sicilian culinary culture equal to none and rewarding us with some of the most amazing recipes and delightful disches, from Arancine to cus cus and famous "cassate siciliane".

Ezekiel Chapter 31 | Parsha:
1In the eleventh year, on the first day of the third month, the word of the Lord came to me:
2O mortal, say to Pharaoh king of Egypt and his hordes:
Who was comparable to you in greatness?
3Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon
With beautiful branches and shady thickets,
Of lofty stature,
With its top among leafy trees.
4Waters nourished it,
The deep made it grow tall,
Washing with its streams
The place where it was planted,
Making its channels well up
To all the trees of the field.
5Therefore it exceeded in stature
All the trees of the field;
Its branches multiplied and its boughs grew long
Because of the abundant water
That welled up for it.
6In its branches nested
All the birds of the sky;
All the beasts of the field
Bore their young under its boughs,
And in its shadow lived
All the great nations.
7It was beautiful in its height,
In the length of its branches,
Because its stock stood
By abundant waters.
8Cedars in the garden of God
Could not compare with it;
Cypresses could not match its boughs,
And plane trees could not vie with its branches;
No tree in the garden of God
Was its peer in beauty.
9I made it beautiful
In the profusion of its branches;
And all the trees of Eden envied it
In the garden of God.
10Assuredly, thus said the Lord God: Because it towered high in stature, and thrust its top up among the leafy trees, and it was arrogant in its height, 11I delivered it into the hands of the mightiest of nations. They treated it as befitted its wickedness. I banished it. 12Strangers, the most ruthless of nations, cut it down and abandoned it; its branches fell on the mountains and in every valley; its boughs were splintered in every watercourse of the earth; and all the peoples of the earth departed from its shade and abandoned it. 13Upon its fallen trunk all the birds of the sky nest, and all the beasts of the field lodge among its boughs— 14so that no trees by water should exalt themselves in stature or set their tops among the leafy trees, and that no well-watered tree may reach up to them in height. For they are all consigned to death, to the lowest part of the netherworld, together with human beings who descend into the Pit.
15Thus said the Lord God: On the day it went down to Sheol, I closed the deep over it and covered it; I held back its streams, and the great waters were checked. I made Lebanon mourn deeply for it, and all the trees of the field languished on its account. 16I made nations quake at the crash of its fall, when I cast it down to Sheol with those who descend into the Pit; and all the trees of Eden, the choicest and best of Lebanon, all that were well watered, were consoled in the lowest part of the netherworld. 17They also descended with it into Sheol, to those slain by the sword, together with its supporters, they who had lived under its shadow among the nations.
18[Now you know] who is comparable to you in glory and greatness among the trees of Eden. And you too shall be brought down with the trees of Eden to the lowest part of the netherworld; you shall lie among the uncircumcised and those slain by the sword. Such shall be [the fate of] Pharaoh and all his hordes—declares the Lord God.

First of all let's give credit where credit is due. Kudos to TorrentFreak for following the late night Pirate Bay trial Twitter translations. A trial can be a tedious thing to follow and this tedium can only be magnified when, due to time zone differences, one is covering it in the wee hours of the morning. Special recognition also goes to those translating the Swedish Pirate Bay proceedings into English, French and German. I notice the mainstream press is turning to both TorrentFreak and the translators for insights and coverage respectively.
We highly encourage you to read TorrentFreak's Pirate Bay coverage for Day 3 of the trial for the details. Some key points of the day:
After Lundström's remarks, called the King Kong defense by TorrentFreak, the court adjourned the case early.

The stylomastoid artery as an anatomical landmark to the facial nerve during parotid surgery: a clinico-anatomic study
© Upile et al; licensee BioMed Central Ltd. 2009

The identification of the facial nerve can be difficult in a bloody operative field or by an incision that limits exposure; hence anatomical landmarks and adequate operative exposure can aid such identification and preservation.
In this clinico-anatomic study, we examined the stylomastoid artery (SMA) and its relation to the facial nerve trunk; the origin of the artery was identified on cadavers and its nature was confirmed histologically.
The clinical component of the study included prospective reviewing of 100 consecutive routine parotidectomies; while, the anatomical component of the study involved dissecting 50 cadaveric hemifaces.
We could consistently identify a supplying vessel, stylomastoid artery, which tends to vary less in position than the facial nerve. Following this vessel, a few millimetres inferiorly and medially, we have gone on to identify the facial nerve trunk, which it supplies, with relative ease. The origin of the stylomastoid artery, in our study, was either from the occipital artery or the posterior auricular artery.
This anatomical aid, the stylomastoid artery, when supplemented by the other more commonly known anatomical landmarks and intra-operative facial nerve monitoring further reduces the risk of iatrogenic facial nerve damage and operative time.

- Anatomical Landmark
- Facial Paralysis
- Occipital Artery
Parotid surgery can at best be tricky and at worst ruinous. The crux of the matter remains the functional preservation of facial nerve (FN), through proper identification and preservation of the nerve at surgery [1].
Summary of the most common methods in identifying the facial nerve trunk.
Surface landmarks
Intra-operative landmarks
Using instruments
• Temporomandibular joint
• Retromandibular vein
• Use nerve stimulator
• Mastoid process
• Tragal pointer
• Use of nerve monitor
• Angle of the mandible
• Tympanomastoid fissure
• Transverse process of the axis
• Styloid process
• Posterior belly of the Digastric
• Retograde dissection of a Peripheral branch to the main trunk
• Temporoparotid facia
• Extension of dissection from the vertical portion of the facial nerve within the mastoid (diagastric ridge)
Approaches to the parotid gland need therefore to provide excellent exposure to allow unencumbered identification and dissection of the facial nerve, and complete excision of the pathological lesion. The standard approach is via a cervico-mastoid-facial incision, which provides good exposure and is relatively easy to perform [3].
In this clinico-anatomic study, we looked at the stylomastoid artery (SMA) and its relation to the facial nerve trunk; the origin of the artery was identified in cadavers and its arterial nature was confirmed histologically. The artery traverses the stylomastoid foramen with the facial nerve.
The study protocol was approved by the local committee of the ethics for human research.
The clinical component of the study included prospective observation of 100 consecutive routine parotidectomies, noting the presence and variations of the stylomastoid artery. Where the surgical approach permitted in 56 of those cases (i.e. the posterior belly of the digastric muscle was dissected), the origin of the stylomastoid artery was also identified.
An information sheet explaining the aim of our study in simple non-scientific terms was given to each patient who was then asked to sign a consent form.
The anatomical component of the study involved dissecting 50 cadaveric hemifaces to assess the surgical anatomy of the stylomastoid artery; furthermore, the arterial nature of the vessel was confirmed by histologically.

A standard cervico-mastoid-facial incision was employed in both the clinical and anatomical components of the study.
Description of the surgical access to the stylomastoid artery (traditional cervico-mastoid-facial approach)
The consented patient is placed under general anaesthesia (with hypotension if indicated) and positioned in a "Reverse Trendelenberg 30°" with the head turned to the opposite side.
The patient was draped in such a way so that the ear, corner of the eye, corner of mouth and neck are exposed. We use an 'opsite®' see-through adhesive plastic drape over the exposed areas and infiltrate the marked skin incision with a dilute tumescent vasoconstrictor solution.
Bipolar cautery and a working facial nerve stimulator were used (set at low mA) as part of routine practice. An assistant provided intelligent counter traction, whilst being aware of pressure induced nerve ischemia.
A cervico-mastoid-facial incision is made with a number 10 blade; the incision follows the anterior contour of the ear then curves gently behind the auricle, and extends anteriorly at least two of the "patient's fingerbreadths" beneath the lower border of the mandible. The parotid flap is raised with sharp iris scissors, with the blades spread at right angles to the capsule. Dissection continues to the anterior border of the gland (where the fascia overlying the masseter is visible). Posteriorly and inferiorly the gland is separated from the sternomastoid muscle. One should try and preserve at least the posterior division of the greater auricular nerve if oncologically justified. The parotid is separated from the cartilaginous portion of the external ear by careful scissor dissection until the tragal pointer is exhibited.
Haemostasis is achieved using a combination of head up position, vasoconstrictor solution, fine mosquito clips, small gauge ties and bipolar cautery. The posterior belly of the digastric muscle is separated from the gland and followed superiorly. The mastoid process is also identified. Working on a broad front, from below up and behind forwards the remaining parotid gland is separated from the cartilaginous ear, posterior belly of the digastric and mastoid tip.
Curved mosquito clips were used to elevate and separate the tissues before possible division. We often use surgical magnification to find the small arterial branch which usually overlies the main trunk of the nerve. The stylomastoid artery (SMA) is routinely used as a surgical landmark to identify the FN; this arterial branch may be divided later if necessary. Depending upon the location of the lesion, we work across a broad front tracing the facial nerve branches to the borders of the specimen. The wound is irrigated and the patient placed in a head down position and an anaesthetic Valsalva manoeuvre is carried out. Judicious haemostasis with cautery and ties is carried out before a large 'Haemovac' drain is carefully placed and the incision closed in layers with absorbable suture to deep tissues.
Cadaveric dissection was performed via a cervico-mastoid-facial incision and standard dissection was performed as described above. Clinical and gross anatomical photography was obtained from a Fujifilm Finepix 2 Megapixel Digital Camera, all surgical instruments were obtained from the Downs surgical® catalogue.
After further cadaveric dissections (50 hemifaces), we determined this to be the SMA which is known to supply the facial nerve whilst accompanying it through the stylomastoid foramen. The arterial nature of the vessel was confirmed histologically.
In order to have safe and effective parotid gland surgery, knowledge of the anatomical landmarks to the facial nerve is essential. A wide range of landmarks have been reported in the literature. However, the reliability of these landmarks is still one of the main concerns since there is no conclusive evidence that any one landmark is better than the rest [4–8].
Pereira et al. [5] suggested that external palpable landmarks can be used to identify the facial nerve trunk quickly and safely. In a study that involved 40 human cadavers, they proposed that a centre of a triangle formed by the temporomandibular joint, the mastoid process and the angle of the mandible allowed a fast and safe identification of the facial nerve and may be of significant help during surgery around the parotid region. Pather and Osman [1] evaluated the relation of the surrounding anatomical structures and surgical landmarks to the facial nerve trunk through a micro-dissection on 40 adult cadavers. Their results showed that the posterior belly of digastric, tragal pointer and transverse process of the axis are consistent landmarks to the facial nerve trunk.
El-Hakim et al. [4] assessed the accuracy of using surrogate anatomic structures radiologically to predict the relation of parotid lesions to the intraparotid facial nerve. The retromandibular vein was identified as being the most accurate structure. Witt et al. [6] carried out a prospective study of 14 cadaver specimens and 22 live patients comparing the closest measured distances between tympanomastoid and posterior belly of the digastric muscle to the facial nerve. They proved that the tympanomastoid suture is a significantly closer and less variable anatomic landmark to the facial nerve than the posterior-superior margin of the posterior belly of the digastric muscle in parotid surgery.
The SMA enters the skull through the stylomastoid foramen, an orifice it shares with the egressing facial nerve. It seems logical therefore to use this relationship to aid the identification and preservation of the facial nerve during surgery.
Moreau et al. [7] anatomically dissected 30 facial nerves in fresh cadavers after arterial casting with red latex to provide specific information about the arterial-related anatomy of the trunk of the facial nerve from the stylomastoid foramen to its bifurcation. The trunk of the facial nerve was in proximity to the stylomastoid artery, which originated from the posterior auricular artery in 70% of the specimens, from the occipital artery in 20% and directly from the external carotid artery in 10%. The SMA passed medially to the trunk of the facial nerve in 63% of the specimens and laterally in 37%. The main shortcoming of this very good study was the anatomical nature of the dissection rather than the use of the standard surgical approach which would have allowed direct translation into clinical practice. Our results differ in that the SMA appeared to consistently pass lateral to the egress of the nerve in superficial to deep anterior to posterior surgical dissections. Some discrepancies can be accounted for by the fact of the differing nature of the dissections (anatomical versus surgical) with their significantly different head positions (anatomical rather than standard surgical).
The 8 cases in the clinical part of our study where the landmark was not useful are important in showing the difficulty in applying set approaches for any operative procedure. Due to the nature of the incision and dissection depending upon the varied pathology in some cases the surgical field was soiled with blood from the superficial dissection. This bleeding was not from the SMA but usually from superficial veins. In these cases using the SMA as a landmark was less helpful and other landmarks were used to find the nerve. As any other tool we do not propose this approach for all situations and circumstances only that it be in the surgeon's armamentarium to be employed when appropriate.
The data in this study supports the use of the SMA as a reliable landmark for the facial nerve which may potentially reduce morbidity. By the early identification of the SMA and by following it infromedially for a few millimetres we were able to consistently identify the location of the facial nerve. Identification aids in the preservation of the facial nerve by preventing inadvertent nerve section.
Since the SMA was found in only 80% of the clinical study this suggests that this artery may not always be present or identifiable. As radiologic studies are not always routinely performed, we used in order of personal preference (the tympanomastoid suture line, posterior belly of the digastric muscle, retrograde dissection of a peripheral branch of the facial nerve and tragal pointer). We also regularly use 'loupe' or formal microscopic magnification and a combination of nerve stimulator and nerve monitors. The surgeon needs all the help that can be manifest but nothing replaces clinical experience aided by anatomical dissection and helpful initial supervision.
This anatomical aid, the stylomastoid artery, when supplemented by the other more commonly known anatomical landmarks and intra-operative facial nerve monitoring further reduces the risk of iatrogenic facial nerve damage and 'potentially' operative time. The drawbacks of this approach are that it requires early and meticulous attention to haemostasis combined with very gentle tissue handling. A feature that many traditional more approaches were not known for.
The surgeon should use as many of the available landmarks as feasible to perform safe facial nerve surgery. Both the main trunk and peripheral branches must be identified and preserved to prevent permanent aesthetic sequelae related to facial paralysis.
Written informed consent was obtained from all of the patients for publication of these cases and any accompanying images.

Brooklyn Playground
In this blog post I will be writing about my own playground design. For mine i focused on the Bed-stuy area and addressing the black and white communities. For decade Bed-stuy has been mostly population by african americans, however, within the past decade gentrification has been spreading and the white population has almost equalled the black population. Living in bed-stuy myself, I see the division among the locals and newbies. I wanted to design my play specifically for the people that have called bed-stuy their home for generations, and the people that have just moved in. I wanted to focus on how discrimination and separation by race is promoted into a child's perception. I found that the majority of the time, the parent, and/or surround authority figures are the ones unwilling to mix-- the kids aren't aware of this until they learn from them. I wanted to make a community garden, that could 1. bring anyone together 2. be a place for kids to have fun but also for adult to relax and interact with eachother 3. to produce a play area that is also beneficial to the earth and beneficial to a child's education and 4. to give city kids the ability to escape to nature and find fun out of that instead of technology. Technology is something that is truly hurting our ways of communicating with eachother, especialy when those technologies are being used by 3 year olds. The Community Playground garden with have multiple flower beds, compost area, climbing structure, pond/stream and beach sandy area, and bird houses.

Islamabad :Minister for Information, Broadcasting,
National History and Literary Heritage Syed Ali Zafar Wednesday said
summery had been moved to convene inaugural session of the
newly-elected National Assembly between August 12 to 14.
Talking to media outside the Supreme Court, he said presently Election
Commission of Pakistan (ECP) had been fulfilling the legal process
before summoning the session.
He said under the Constitution, it was obligatory to summon first
session of the National Assembly within 21 days after elections and it
was imperative to fulfill this constitutional obligation by August 15.
He said in the inaugural session, first of all newly-elected members
would take oath, then new speaker and deputy speaker would be elected
followed by election of the prime minister and this process may take
three to four days.
Elaborating, he said process of nomination papers, scrutiny of
nomination papers and the election for the three posts would be time
He said as soon as the newly-elected prime minister would take oath,
the job of the caretakers would be over and power would be transferred
to the newly elected government under the law and the Constitution.
Ali Zafar said it was desire of the caretaker Prime Minister
Nasir-ul-Mulk that the newly elected prime minister could have
attended the August 14, ceremony along with the president but
completion of the election process was the hurdle.
Replying to a question, he said political statements were coming about
the fairness of the elections.
He said the ECP had asked the caretaker government for holding inquiry
into the failure of RTS and the government was looking into it.
He said election had been held and it was time now to look forward.
One should wait the result of the inquiry to be conducted on the
failure of the RTS before commenting on it.
He said recounting was allowed under the election laws and there was no harm in recounting votes if it was as per law as this removes
doubts in the minds of the people.
About power shortage, he said long term planning was required to overcome this problem and some difficult decisions would have to be made in this connection.

SUBJECT/S: Tony Abbott's Commission of Cuts.
PRESENTER: Well the Opposition Leader, Bill Shorten has returned fire, accusing the Treasurer of hiding plans for big budget cuts. He's defended the Senate Committee's decision to call Commissioners auditing the Government's spending to hearings while they're still compiling their reports. Bill Shorten is speaking to Melissa Clarke.
SHORTEN: I think Australians do have the right to know what cuts the Abbott Government is proposing to health services, to education, to families. That's what these Senate hearings are all about. What is the truth?
CLARKE: But the Government doesn't have those plans yet, they're waiting on recommendations from the Commission of Audit, and the Commission of Audit hasn't made those recommendations yet, so how much are you going to get out of these hearings if that's what your questioning for?
SHORTEN: Well first of all, Joe Hockey said earlier this morning that they're going to adopt a vast number of those recommendations, so clearly he has an idea, he wouldn't just say he's going to adopt a vast number of recommendations sight-unseen, so he knows something. When you're the government of Australia you have an obligation to share the bad news, not just doll it out when it suits you. Also, the first report's due very soon, so I think it strains belief that the Commission of Cuts and the Government haven't already worked out some of their initial proposals, what they're going to cut. We've seen the GP tax, the tax on people taking their kids to the doctor, being raised. They are simply trying to hide the fact before the Griffith by-election, they are trying to probably get it out at Budget time and smother it in other news.
CLARKE: We know it can be difficult for Parliamentary inquiries to question about advice given to government. How confident are you that you will actually be able to illicit information out of these hearings given it still is an early stage for the Commission of Audit?
SHORTEN: The Commissioners, if they don't provide answers to questions. have clearly been gagged by the Government. The Commission of Cuts and the selective leaks from the Government show that they've got a fair idea about a few of the things they want to do and none of them are good. They've made it clear, they haven't just floated it by accident, they're not just that haphazard, that they've floated an idea of charging people for going to the doctor. So obviously that's a plan they've seriously considered. They flagged the possibility of means testing childcare payments, they've indicated their going to cut childcare workers' wages. The Abbott Government has a clear, albeit secret agenda to cut health and education and family services. They should just come clean and tell people what they're going to do.
PRESENTER: The Opposition Leader, Bill Shorten.

Life here follows typical cyclical paths. We follow the rising and setting of the sun. Especially here it dictates our moves. In the winter we are frozen without its warmth, and we walk about from patch of sun to patch of sun to stay comfortable. In the summer you do everything you can to avoid the sun, walking to and from patches of shade to go about your day. Eating, sleeping, sickness and health, they all travel in cycles and intervals.
If we can back up and look a bit more macroscopically; life and death are each of our great cycles. Today two of our patients, two friends and community members ended this side of their life cycle, and entered into something new.
But first, life.
Mukesh and Rasheed here have been long-time members of the population here at Sewa Ashram. Both were found on the streets, pulled from some unimaginable circumstances, and placed in the arms of love here. Mukesh (read more by clicking here) was abused by the men on the street, he was an IV drug user and lived under a bridge. Rescued, loved, and now thriving, Mukesh makes up half of the amazing creative team that fills the walls of the ashram with paintings. (To see Mukesh's painting gallery, click here.)
Rasheed is one of the people I spend the most time with here. He is quirky, funny, a prankster, extraordinarily intelligent, and talented in ways I did not know were possible. His hips and arms are at 90 degrees from the "normal" orientation, so his mobility and dexterity are about 90 degrees from "normal", too. He is just someone you have to see to believe. He too was rescued from the streets and now spends his time adorning the halls of the ashram with laughter.
Javed is the other half of the creative design team here. Told by the leader here to start painting, he replied "but I have never painted before." Well, that changed pretty quickly, and his paintings now number somewhere near 100 and are in every building on the compound. Many of the visitors to the ashram end up leaving with one of his paintings packed away in their suitcase. See his gallery here.)
There is not a whole lot I can say after a photo like that. This guy is just funny and happy all the time. I am not sure of the story behind the neck brace, but he seems to really like wearing it. He is one of the people here who probably hold everything together, without us ever knowing it. He works all the time; cleaning floors, taking out garbage, feeding people, talking to people, doing laundry, drawing, and making fun of people.
On one side of the compound there used to be a nice little building where the "boys", those who have been here a long time and do most of the work, would meet every morning for meditation. Most of that building fell down, but the foundation still stands, and the little shrine set up to Jesus still stands. Jessica took this picture of one of our favorite guys here (truthfully, most of them are our favorites) stopping to give a little devotion before the shrine. It was just a beautiful little scene, and Jess captured the moment perfectly.
Though life is first, at the end we still come to death.
And many times here, death is exceedingly beautiful. Those who have had a long time to accept their fate eventually do so and go ever so peacefully across that divide. Some, right at the end, simply stop taking food and decide to walk willingly toward the new side of the cycle. Many times with long-term tuberculosis, at the very end, the skin pulls very tight across the face, showing off all of the curvatures of the face bones, and they become absolutely beautiful.
One of those that died today was a Muslim, so he will be taken to some Muslims that we know who give proper burials to those of their religion. This man in the photo, well, we don't know how to label within a religion, so we do with him what we do with all of our dead. We give them over to God and we follow Indian customs. All of the dead in India are cremated.
His ashes will return to the earth. The cycle will continue. Life, death, life.

thanks a lot for leaving your comment!
Yeah, life and death get pretty close together there. This is unusual for us westerners who try to lock out every appearance of disease, ugliness, suffering and death. But this is NOT the natural way, and this is something I am happy to have learned in India. Still it is not easy to accept at times. All the best for you both!
Hi Jessica and Jake,
I just read about the book and money drie you had asked for. I must have missed it in your emails. Let me know the next time you do it on my personal email. It is wonderful to see you are learning so much and helping others in need. This is a precious gift and glad you are sharing it with others. This is what the world needs to make it a better place to live.
"CARING AND SHARING" Think of what we could do if we had all the money being poured into Iraq and use it for those in need like you see every day. Love ya.
Freinds forever, Larry and Sue Shroyer

text: Because SBS 2003 Standard does not allow integration with Office 365 there is NO password synchronization between your current server and Office 365. If you migrate your SBS 2003 to either Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2 or Windows Server Essentials 2016 this functionality can be restored by running the Office 365 integration wizard. This tutorial assumes that the SBS 2003 is still the one and the ONLY domain controller in your network. If you already have installed another domain controller or you have already moved FSMO roles from your SBS 2003 to a new server (like WSE2012R2 or WSE2016) and/or you have already demoted the SBS 2003 but you still have Exchange Server 2003 installed then this tutorial is NOT for your situation. This document and what comes with it are provided as-is with blunt warning: Use at your own risk, buyer beware. You break your system; you own the resolution as well. We have no liability for what you do, or can't do, or fail to do with this information. Your entire protection is to start over again with a protected backup, or from protected system. If you don't want to accept this idea, please don't use this document. 1. Have Office 365 verify ownership of your domain After signing up for an Office 365 account you need to add your domain and verify ownership. This can be done by creating a TXT file with the value Office 365 gives you. Office 365 will check this value and if it matches this is enough proof that you own the domain. Record type Alias or hostname Value TTL TXT It depends on your DNS host but most of them require you to type @ or leave the field empty MS=msXXXXXX. The value for XXXXXX you will find in DNS records shown when you run the wizard. See screenshots in this tutorial Set 1 hour is most of the time OK Login to your Office 365 account and click Setup –> Domains. Choose Add Domain. Type the domain name you own and click Next In the screenshot you see you can also choose your DNS host but mine is not listed, I do everything myself because I don't like anybody else messing around with my DNS records. I need to add a TXT record in DNS with MS=ms12270506 as the value. How that is done on your DNS provider I don't know, please contact them if you need help on this. After you have added the TXT record click Verify. Remember that this can take awhile depending on the TTL and your DNS provider. Some of those providers require 24 hours for this to propagate, you have to wait. Once the verification process has been completed we can continue. The first option requires you to change name servers to something at Microsoft but I never do that. I choose to manage DNS at my own DNS hosting provider. Click Next. In this step you will see what the DNS records should look like when migration is completed but we not completed it yet so scroll down. Check 'Skip' and click Skip. When migration is done we will come back here and changed DNS records according to the list Microsoft gives you here. Do NOT change those records now or all will fail. Click Finish Click Finish. It will show 'Possible service issues' because we have not yet changed DNS records. Changing DNS records will be done AFTER we have successfully migrated all mailboxes. 2. Check if Outlook Anywhere is properly configured on your SBS 2003 Exchange 2003 Server Normally you should just be fine if you have been using the Exchange Server 2003 on our SBS 2003 as your primary mail server. The Internet Connection wizard (Setup your Internet Address) should have done that for you but there is one 'gotcha'. Your SBS 2003 must be setup with a trusted certificate. Here is how you check that. From the Start Menu choose Administrative Tools and then Internet Information Services. Right click the Default Website and choose Properties. Choose View Certificate As you see I have a certificate from Comodo and that is OK. If you see 'self signed' you need to get a certificate for your domain from an official CA. 3. Connect Office 365 to your Exchange Server 2003 on the SBS 2003 Logon to your Office 365 account with the Global Administrator account. Most of the time that is the account that was first used to purchase an Office 365 subscription. In this step we create a Migration Endpoint and set the user who is able to actually migrate Exchange data. In most cases this is the Domain Admin on your SBS you would normally use the administer the server. Once that is done a new migration batch is created and we will start that automatically. Once migration is completed and DNS is changed to point all DNS records to Office 365 you can remove that batch. Choose Amin centers and then Exchange. Choose Recipients and then 'migration'. Add a Migration Endpoint Click the + sign Choose Outlook Anywhere Choose the Domain Admin for this Choose the defaults presented to you. If Mailbox Selection is not selected please select that. Give it a name Click Close Choose Migrate to Exchange Online Choose Cutover Migration Click Next Give the migration batch a name and click Next Leave all default and click Next It is syncing A notification is also made. Status is validating. The next stage. You must wait until Status = Synced. It has completed. Four mailboxes are synced and two distribution groups finalized. If you check details you will see that my mailboxes are 'Synced' and the distribution groups are 'Completed'. If you don't need to migrate those distribution groups you can delete them after migration or "mail disable" them in Exchange Manager on the SBS 2003. I received an email that confirmed the migration was successful. 4. Change DNS to point to Office 365 You will need to make a lot of changes to your public DNS records. Logon to the Office 365 admin portal and choose 'Domains' and click on the domain that should be your default mail domain. If you click on that domain a list with DNS records will show up and you must change or add those in your public facing DNS. How you do that is outside of the scope of this tutorial, each DNS provider looks different. From now on you can continue with How to migrate from SBS 2003 to Windows Server 2016 (Essentials) | How to uninstall Exchange Server 2003 on the old SBS 2003 . Once that is uninstalled go to a client that is properly connected to your network and delete the Outlook Profile and create a new one. You will see that it connects to Office 365 and your mail has been migrated.

2016 Regional Consumer Advisory Committee Forum
It is a pleasure to welcome you to our web page dedicated to the first Regional Health Services Consumer Advisory Committee Forum held in Victoria on Tuesday 29th November, 2016.
This innovative approach to consumer engagement and participation was first proposed to the Department of Health and Human Services by the members of Benalla Health, Cultural Diversity and Consumer Committee as a way of bringing together the various Consumer Advisory Committees established at each health service in the region.
Through the support of the Hume Chronic Care Steering Committee, who helped fund this event, we have been able to bring this forum to you. We hope that our range of speakers and the "Speed Dating" session that will follow, will allow each Committee and health service to meet the goals we have established. These include: that existing Consumer Advisory Committees (CAC) feel valued, heard and ideas actioned; provide network opportunities for CAC members; build skills within each CAC; help them improve engagement with their community; assist health services in establishing a CAC in their own service and finally explore the value of establishing a regional advisory CAC.
Video Presentations
I want to specifically thank those members of the volunteers on the steering committee from Benalla Health, Alpine Health, Goulburn Valley Health, Upper Murray Health and Community Services, Albury Wodonga Health and Numurkah District Health Service. Without their contributions, this forum would not be possible.
Neil Stott
Chair of Steering Committee

This an older prediction we have posted and might not be relevant to you anymore. If you are looking for upcoming cricket betting predictions, we recommend you check out our cricket betting tips page to find the latest betting tips.
When the two captains go out on the field for the toss on 22nd February, there would be different emotions and different reasons for them, but the aim for both the captains would be the same; to draw first blood. There has been a lot of talk about MS Dhoni's captaincy in the testing version of the game, and he would be desperate to go out and prove his critics wrong. On the other hand, despite having the weakest Australian side since 1980s, Michael Clarke has done nothing wrong. Australia won their home test series against Sri Lanka and thrashed West Indies recently. Both teams are under some major transitions due to retirement of some big players, and it would be interesting to see their approach towards this game.
Since the shocking defeat against England, this is the first time India would be playing the longest format. They've played ODI cricket and results weren't spectacular. The biggest advantage for India is that they are playing in their own backyard with good spinners; having said that, it was the same reason India lost the test series to England. With only Sachin left in what was once called the 'Fabulous Four', there would be a lot resting on his shoulders. Sachin has scored some runs in recent Irani Cup match and is looking good. The biggest problem still lies at the top; Vijay and Dhawan are both too inexperienced to handle sharp quick bowling and Virender Sehwag is planning for a place in middle order. It would not be surprising if Dhoni backs Sehwag to open solely due to the threat he poses to fast bowlers.
With the retirement of Mr. Cricket, all now depends on Michael Clarke. He is the most experienced man on the field and has scored a lot of runs lately. The cause of concern is likely to be spin bowling as they lack experience to bowl at subcontinent tracks. Their batting, except Clarke and Watson, seems to be very thin. Their pace bowling is definitely better than the Indian side, but India has better spinners no doubt. Injury to Warner has raised their concern to another level. Australia has always been a fighting side, irrespective of place and position, and we expect no less here.
As both the teams are going under some major transitions, choosing between the sides has become ever more difficult. Indian side is more experienced than Australia and conditions suit India better. Furthermore, Australia A didn't even pose a threat to India A side which was quite surprising. Australia lack a quality spinner and pace bowling isn't going to matter if pitch is anywhere near a typical Chennai pitch. I'd place my money on home team for several reasons with experience getting the most weightage, and given that the odds seem to favor Australia for some reason, it will be a larger than usual one.
Winner: India, 2.20 @ Bovada

where I live
It's 13C today.
Normally, it'd be about -20C around these parts, but there's some sort of Arctic fluctuation or something that's messing up my snow days. Not that I mind. Being able to air out the house in January is a thing of beauty.
The balmy weather also encouraged me to go for a walk today, and in my school-induced stupor I'd forgotten how awesome my neighbourhood is. Within a 5 minute walk of my house there is:
• An Italian grocery, two Asian groceries, a Safeway and a Co-op
• A second hand bookstore (with a great selection, I might add)
• A climbing wall
• At least 3 pizza places
• Two art supply stores
• A theatre costume shop
• A freakin' magic shop. A MAGIC shop. Seriously.
…and these are just the places I've visited. There are also a handful of beauty parlours, a pawn shop, a Starbucks, a restaurant supply store with adorable teapots, two florists, a Buddhist temple and about a kajillion restaurants. My neighbourhood rocks.
I get that living centrally isn't for everyone, and that some people love the quiet of the suburbs. But I love not having to use a car. I love being able to walk to get just about anything I want. I love the funny little bungalows and skinny infill housing and yes, even those somewhat gauche new developments that are way oversized for their lots.
Sure, there are problems. There's graffiti and litter, homelessness and panhandlers. But so far the police haven't pulled a dude out from under my porch at 2am at gunpoint, with a snarling police dog for backup. (My old neighbourhood was interesting).
So, this new place? It's not perfect, and it's not for everyone, but it's definitely for me.
And it's 13C. Just sayin'.

Leading a self-improving school system
Why we should be moving to a self-improving school system.
David H Hargreaves looks at the opportunities and challenges of a self-improving school system for teaching schools and their strategic alliances. This report concentrates on the roles and responsibilities of school leaders.
Teaching schools have a double challenge, to:
- co-develop professional practice that raises standards across their alliance
- work with other teaching schools to develop new standards of professional practice
