Deploy LoB MAM apps via MAM WE instead of MDM
I want to be able to deploy LoB apps that are not available in the relevant stores, to Android and iOS devices via MAM WE (MAM Without Enrolment). At the moment I have to enrol the devices into Intune.
I would like to manage the data on the devices rather than managing the devices themselves.
I think MAM WE is fantastic product, I just need this functionality to be able to migrate to it.

Mike commented
I am happy with the current solution App Protection gives, with deploying LoB apps. This can be closed.
Hi, Mike, the thing is, to do things like pushing apps, we need a certain amount of trust on the device, which comes from installing the management profile, which comes during enrollment. If an app is "enlightened" for MAM-WE, then the app can follow rules about how to handle the data. But to get the app on the device, either the user has to pick it or we need that bootstrap trust to be able to push things to the device.. . .

HTC Vive Adds Three New AR and VR Headsets to the Cosmos Family (Plus a Prototype Teaser)
Here's everything that was supposed to be unveiled at MWC.
Here's everything that was supposed to be unveiled at MWC.
And it'll only cost you £700. Which is still pretty pricey.
This dispute has been going on almost as long as the Samsung/Apple stuff.
And it's not the Huawei 5G CPE Pro hub.
An assault on batteries shows which brands claims didn't cut it.
It's much more than a simple hotspot, but too bulky to be a smartphone and too small to be a tablet.
But you can if you like.
And EE will stock it in the UK.
With two upgraded controllers and a 3K AMOLED screen.
The phone debuts that wowed us at IFA this year.
Improved longevity and actual, physical buttons make HTC's U12 Life an attractive alternative to all the cheap new phones coming out lately.
Pre-orders open on September 5th.
If true the brand will survive, but someone else will make the phones.
Could the U12+ be the last flagship phone HTC ever makes?
According to HTC, it won't have one.
HTC is doubling down on some smartphone innovation that you can actually feel.

Red Eléctrica de España has today finished presenting its comments and arguments to the draft Circulars issued by the Spanish National Markets and Competition Commission (CNMC) regarding the remuneration model of the electricity system operator and that of the electricity transmission activity, as well as the financial remuneration rate that affects both activities. This has been done within the period established by the regulator and within the framework of the public information and consultation process.
Below you will find the link to the Executive Summary outlining Red Eléctrica's main observations and arguments, as sole HV transmission agent, in response to the new methodology proposed by the CNMV in its Draft Circular regarding the remuneration of the electricity transmission activity.
Download the Executive Summary
Red Eléctrica proposes that:
The comments and arguments, contained in a 160-page document, address more than 75 aspects, and its objective is to contributing towards establishing a regulatory environment that will enable the Company to face its key role as sole transmission agent and operator of the electricity system when tackling the major challenge posed by the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan regarding the integration of renewable energy. Furthermore, and more importantly, so that the Company can undertake the significant volume of investment (from private financing) that will be required by the ecological transition process and the transformation the electricity system requires in order to move towards smart grids and the introduction of artificial intelligence.
In line with the indications that the Ministry for the Ecological Transition has reflected in its recent reports on the draft Circulars, the comments and arguments presented by Red Eléctrica are meant to contribute to align the regulation with the energy policy guidelines, and therefore they focus on the following aspects:
Red Eléctrica de España is confident that the public consultation process, together with the announcement by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition to convene the Cooperation Commission, will allow those discrepancies that have arisen to be addressed and will also contribute to the design of a stable and adequate regulatory framework in order to successfully take on the challenges posed by the energy transition to which the Company is fully committed to. This will enable an electricity system such as ours, which is of the highest quality, to continue to be maintained; a system whose efficiency is clearly demonstrated considering that the cost for the electricity transmission activity represents just 4% of the overall system costs.

On hot summer days, one longs for the cooler hours from dusk to dawn. Guarino Guarini had this in mind when planning the country estate of Racconigi (1676ff.), south of Turin, for his patron Emanuele Filiberto, Prince of Carignano.
A few years before Guarini began work at the site, the prince had commissioned the French landscape architect André Le Nôtre to design the extensive gardens on the estate grounds.
Guarini's main contribution to the complex was his project for remodeling the estate's medieval castello into a baroque palace, of which only the tract along the garden facade was completed. But the architect also provided other designs for the estate and the adjacent town. One such project was a garden pavilion for the Racconigi grounds, which Guarini used to illustrate a passage about "oblique" architecture in his treatise Architettura civile (published posthumously in 1737). Guarini described the garden pavilion – reproduced above – as:
"…un Casino, o Pinacolo per un Giardino per ritirarli nella State, e massime sulla sera a cena fatto pel Serenissimo Principe di Carignano nel Giardino deliziosissimo, e vastissimo di Racconigi…"
that is:
"…a casino, or gazebo for a garden, to withdraw to in the summer, especially for dinner in the evenings, made for the most serene Prince of Carignano in the delightful and vast garden of Racconigi…"
The text passage refers to the upper image (elevation) on the plate reproduced above, and some of the partial plans on the right of the plate. The lower image (section) is for a different, unidentified design, discussed in the second "Osservazione" of the treatise chapter. The exact position of the Racconigi casino in the park of the castello remains unknown, as do the details of its construction, whether of stone, wood, or brick. Any traces of it must have vanished when the gardens were redesigned in the late eighteenth century and again in the nineteenth century.
The gazebo would have furnished a splendid setting for summer dinner parties in the cool of the evening, with provisions ferried from the kitchens in the main house, or perhaps prepared outdoors. But these delights were reserved for a select few: the prince and his invited guests.
The Racconigi gardens are open to the public today, but only until 7 pm. They feature a bird sanctuary with wetlands for storks and ducks – and some of the storks nest right on top of the castello! Even if you can't dine in the gardens, it is a refreshing place to spend a summer day.

Technological advancements have left us awash with options when it comes to communicating in the modern age. But are we taking advantage of this greater level of choice, and how is it affecting our lives?
To find out, we surveyed 2,000 people in the U.S. on their use of 23 common communication platforms (shown below), covering everything from social media to dating apps. We then asked what impact, be it positive or negative, these platforms are having on their personal and professional lives.
Google Hangouts
Facebook Messenger
Modern communication platforms are a huge part of our lives
A staggering 92 percent of all our respondents said they use at least one of the 23 suggested communication platforms daily—an indication of how important they are to people of all generations in the modern age.
Facebook was the most commonly used platform, with 87 percent of respondents saying they use it daily, followed by its partnered app Facebook Messenger (58 percent). Other social media platforms such as Twitter (43 percent), Google+ (39 percent) and Instagram (37 percent) made up the remainder of the top five.
Respondents reported using an average of 3.6 platforms daily, indicating that adoption across a number of platforms is commonplace. Combine it with our findings on how long people spend on them, and you get an even greater picture of the role these media play in our lives.
WeChat was found to be the most time-consuming communication platform, with users spending an average of 1 hour and 37 minutes on the app daily. Scale that up, and it means users spend an average of 11.3 hours of their week on the app—or 24.5 days of their year.
Aside from being the among the most time-consuming platforms, instant messaging apps such as WeChat, Viber and WhatsApp feature heavily when we look at how often people check the listed platforms.
|Average number of times checked daily
Instant messaging app Viber came out on top of this statistic. An average of 5.91 checks per day equates to 2,157 every year.
Using this data, we can gather some insight into our use of different types of platforms. Social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter are more widespread in daily use, but we use them less intensely than instant messaging apps, which have higher average consumption times and checks per day.
Despite the level of saturation in our personal lives, businesses are a little slower in their adoption of modern communication platforms.
While businesses may use toll-free numbers to allow customers to communicate with them more easily, we found a less regular use of modern communication platforms and apps in the office than at home.
The most commonly used workplace platforms align with those in the home, but each one drops significantly for businesses purposes. Fifty-four percent fewer people said they use Facebook for work purposes, while 34 percent fewer use Facebook Messenger and 20 percent fewer use Twitter.
Despite that, 40 percent said they consider communication in the workplace to be easier thanks to these platforms.
We feel reliant on technology to communicate
More than 50 percent of the people we surveyed said they feel either "somewhat reliant" or "very reliant" on technology when communicating.
The pragmatic benefits that come from using these platforms has led to a state of dependence in half our respondents.
Millennials are leading on adoption of communicative technology
Throughout our study, we found that millennials (ages 18–34) were more inclined to adopt new communication technology than older generations. Not only were their levels of daily use higher but so too is the average amount of time spent consuming information on these platforms.
Millennials were found to spend 35 percent more time communicating via these platforms each day than those over 35, and 70 percent longer than those over 45. Such is their level of proficiency; millennials are also leading the adoption of technology for everyday activities.
Almost three-quarters of millennials turn to technology when having a conversation with friends, sharing an image with someone, sharing news or having a group conversation with friends.
Millennials feel more reliant on technology to communicate
An increase in usage also brings an increase in the reliance millennials feel technology has on their lives. That extends to the workplace, where millennials are much more likely to consider technology as a crucial part of their careers.
We asked people if their jobs would change without access to these communication platforms, and if so, to what extent.
|Age 18-34
|Age 35-54
|Age 55+
|My job would not exist
|My job would have to alter dramatically
|My job would alter slightly
|My job would not change
Roughly one in four millennial respondents (27 percent) said their job would either not exist or would have to change dramatically without the use of communication platforms, up from 20 percent for 35-54 years old and just 4 percent for those over 55.
Indeed, more than half (52 percent) said their job would have to change to some degree, 15 percent more than 35–54-year-olds and 35 percent higher than those over 55. It's an indication of the changing landscape of the jobs market, where proficiency in modern tech platforms is increasingly necessary for millennial employment prospects.
Given that many believe that technology is crucial to their professional lives, it's no surprise to see more millennials consider themselves to be reliant on the very technology that helps mold their personal and professional lives.
As many as three-quarters of millennials said they feel "somewhat reliant" or "very reliant" on technology when communicating. So ingrained are these technologies in the lives of younger generations that it's led to a reliance on these media on both a personal and professional level.
Using valuable insight from experts in business, psychology and telecommunications, our white paper further investigates the changing dynamics of communication, including what these findings mean for your business.

Zenith Flash-Matic advertisement (AP Photo/LG Electronics) AP
Though this blog is a travel and photography blog, I felt like changing things up a bit to focus on some technology we take for granted. Everything from automobiles to vacuum cleaners now provides some degree of remote control. A little over a year ago, Eugene Polley, inventor of the first wireless remote control passed away at the age of 96. After seeing his obituary, I was moved to write this short history of the television remote control. Never fear, I will continue to post travel and photography stories with my next post.
Zenith Electronics was the leader in the design and development of television remotes. Their first model, developed in 1950, was called the Lazy Bones remote. It was not very popular and depended upon a long cable that sent electrical signals from the controller to the television.
In 1955, Eugene Polley, a Zenith engineer, developed a light activated remote called Flash-Matic. The unit looked like a cross between a ray gun and a flashlight. The viewer would point the light at one of the four corners of the television to change the channel or turn the set on or off. Of course, ambient room light and stray lights from nearby windows drove the TV to uncommanded contortions.
Zenith Flash-Matic Controller (AP Photo/LG Electronics) AP
Only one year later, Robert Adler, also from Zenith, developed a much more useful remote control that Zenith dubbed the Space Command remote. Instead of light, the unit emitted ultrasonic "pings". A mechanical hammer would tap a tuned rod, generating a specific frequency heard only by the television (and any nearby dogs, which sometimes set to barking.) The Space Command remote was the first remote control that I remember seeing. When I worked in a TV shop, I routinely was called upon to fix the TVs that were so equipped.
Zenith two-function remote
The most common problem with these remotes involved the family pet. The family would be gathered around the TV watching Red Skelton or I Love Lucy, when the dog would come bounding in. The dog would get into a playful tussle with the children and the TV would go crazy, turning itself off and on and changing channels randomly. The culprit was the dog collar containing a couple of dog tags that would clang together and emit sounds of the right frequency to trip the remote control circuitry in the television.
The most unusual service call I personally made was to a house where the TV would simply change channels at random, and not very often. The other techs and I actually made several calls to this house and, of course, the TV would never misbehave when a tech was there. One day, I happened to be there, and shortly after I got there, the TV changed channels all by itself. I don't know why I noticed it, but I happened to hear the refrigerator in the kitchen start its compressor. That turned out to be the trigger. Apparently the compressor motor was generating an ultrasonic frequency at power on. Under certain conditions, that tone triggered the channel change circuitry in the TV. After unplugging the refrigerator and plugging it in again a couple of times, I found I could reproduce the channel change sometimes when the compressor started. We moved the TV a couple of feet away from the kitchen door and angled the set slightly away from the door and the problem disappeared.
Eventually, the audio remote gave way to the standard infra-ted remote that we now use in the vast majority of remote control applications. Infra-Red remotes broadcast a digital code that varies depending upon the function being controlled. A sensor in the controlled device decodes the data stream and performs the required action.
Some whole house satellite and cable receivers use radio frequency codes, as do garage door openers. These remotes broadcast a radio signal so they can operate the controlled device through walls. I suspect the infra-red and radio remotes will coexist for many years to come.

Women and men should take this seriously as part of your skin and hair treatments.
If you are not familiar with argan oil, this rare oil is naturally potent with antioxidants and vitamins harvested from the Argan tree found only in particular areas of Morocco.
The method of harvesting is a bit grouse and this became an interesting natural story to share. When we learned more about this precious argan oil, surprisingly, the benefits ranged from hair care to skin care, and the oil is also a tasty edible.
The Moroccan Argan tree lifespan is between 150-200 years. It will take up to 30 years before producing fruit that has a nut inside. The nut is where all the powerful antioxidant is found.
Moroccan Argan oil is the newest, hottest health and beauty natural oil that is on the market, easily found in cosmetic stores or online. Best to store out of sunlight for up to 6 months and keep sealed tightly.
When applying on the skin or hair, the tocopherol from the vitamin E boosts cell production while promoting healthy skin and hair.
Argan Oil Benefits
Skin Treatments
You can use argan oil for your face along with your normal skin care regiment. Not only will the use of argan oil help skin conditions, using argan oil for facial treatments is known to ease wrinkles and decrease under-eye puffiness.
Depending on quality most Moroccan argan oil contains 35–40 percent linoleic acid and 42–48 percent oleic acid. Linoleic acid helps to reduce inflammation and acne while lifting and moisturizing skin levels. Oleic acid helps improve the skin's ability to absorb and retain the oils. This is great to use with other skin care treatments to deeply penetrate the skin.
For exfoliation use argan oil on the face by mixing 1-tablespoon brown sugar along with a few drops of oil and rub circular, gently and leave on your face for a few minutes. You will feel the sugar dry and then rinse with warm water. You will see a glow, happens every time.
For acne sufferers, you want products that do not clog pores. Argan oil does not clog pores and the oil is highly rated as a popular carrier oil for skin conditions of all kinds. Apply by using a drop and dab on the problem area, this can be used along with tea tree oil.
Hair Treatments
Argan oil is a natural hair conditioner because this is non-greasy oil. Using argan oil is a leave-in conditioner for hair. You will find that the oil when applied makes your hair easier to style while repairing split ends. Argan oil tames frizzy and fly-always too. In hot climates, this is a wonderful protectant from harsh sun, swimming pools with chlorine and protects hair from the use of the heat from all hair dryers, curlers and flat irons. There is always a shine or sheen that will be noticeable when you start using this as part of your hair treatment.
There is a little research that indicates argan oil can promote hair growth. So it doesn't hurt to rub it into your scalp especially if you have a dry scalp or suffer from dandruff. Applying depends on the hair thickness, texture, condition and length. You will get the hang of it. When you start less is more. Start with 1 drop to 3 drops and see how it goes from there.
Practice makes perfect. A drop is good for short hair a ½ drop may do, longer hair means a few more drops. You are going to warm the argan oil before applying to your face or hair by warming the oil in your palms. Apply by running your fingers through your hair, then making sure you go over your ends. You want to include your scalp every time by adding a ½ drop to your fingertips and briskly rub into your scalp. You don't' want to waste a drop, so any left over rub on your face, neck or hands.
Pure roasted organic argan oil or edible argan oil is oil produced from roasted kernels of the argan tree (Argania Spinosa).
Similar to olive oil but better, the oil consists of more than 80% unsaturated fatty acids. Its linoleic acid content is much higher than olive oil. This is oil with cholesterol-lowering effects and a great alternative for cooking. The benefit of including this into your diet is the high content of natural antioxidants which neutralizes free radicals, strengthens the immune system and improves the healing ability of damaged cells.
If you like to cook, this is ideal for breakfast, for grilling or smoking fish and vegetables. For veggie lovers, use argan oil as the finishing touch for tasty gourmet salads and the oil can be mixed for salad dressings.
Buying Moroccan Argan Oil
While reading the labels, you will notice that the top cosmetic companies are including it in their high-end anti-aging, hair and skin care products. That can be a bit spendy.
Don' t fret, getting argan oil benefits does not mean you have to go out and purchase high-end luxury hair and skin care products. You can buy just the argan oil. Using the oil along with your products makes this a versatile addition to your regular beauty routine. Moroccan argan oil at 100 % quality can be expensive, but keep in mind a lot goes a long way. Just a drop or two will do the trick and keep your hair and skin nourished all day long.
Argan Oil Side Effects
There are a few things to consider when using argan oil. For people who have any nut allergies, the argan tree is not a nut tree, and not considered a nut. The nut from the tree is a stone fruit and the oils come from the nut.
For testing, always test the oil on the inside of your arm first to make sure that you don't have an allergic reaction

Last week, Lucky from OMAAT mentioned how he believed that airline alliances were dying. Although I don't dispute the fact that they aren't in the best shape they have been, I still see great value from them. For many consumers, airline alliances provide a very extensive value to each member's' mileage currency, allows for seamless connectivity, and makes elite status more valuable.
Which are the airline alliances?
There are three major airline alliances. The smaller alliances, which OMAAT covered in a previous post, are not as important as these. They also do not function as the normal alliances do. The three major alliances are Star Alliance, Skyteam and oneWorld.
Star Alliance
Star Alliance is the largest alliance. The major players are United, the Lufthansa Group of airlines, and Air China. There are other carriers (such as Air Canada, ANA, Air India, and Singapore Airlines) but they do not carry as many passengers as the major players. The alliance has stakes in every continent except Australia. Their elite tiers are Star Alliance Silver and Gold.
Skyteam is Delta's alliance. I mention it as such, given that Delta owns part of Air France-KLM, Aeromexico and China Eastern, the largest carriers in the alliance. There are also other notable carriers such as Aeroflot, China Southern, Korean Air, and Saudia. The airline lack partners in Australia and in Africa. Skyteam has two elite tiers: Elite and Elite Plus.
The smallest of the airline alliances, its major players are American, British AIrways-Iberia, LAN and Qatar. There are also other large carriers such as JAL, Qantas and Cathay Pacific. The alliance has the least stringent rules regarding airline partnerships. It has three elite statuses: Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald.
Why they have value
I am a firm believer that airline alliances offer value to both airlines and customers. If an airline's loyalty program has multiple airlines where customers can redeem their miles, the value of the program increases. If an airline can leverage their elite status value beyond their carrier, such as free baggage or lounge access, their program further increases in value.
For customers, the above mentioned aspects also add value to their loyalty. Beyond that, however, the airline's partnerships, ability to through check baggage, and codeshares allow customers to reach farther.
Landing thoughts:
I am a big fan of airline alliances. They still hold incredible value to airlines. I am not saying that Joint Ventures are more or less valuable, but I can see them both coexisting. I hope to see more airlines join, although most of the new airlines will be smaller, regional carriers. With all major airlines already members of alliances, only smaller airlines will be able to make a difference. Hopefully, these alliances will last many more years, and bring customers more value.
What do you think? Do you see airline alliances as valuable? Could the airline world do without them? Let us know!

It gets over watered in the summer and it doesn't drain well in the winter.Greens are usually in good shape though.A decent price for golf in the Bay Area.Not a better 19th hole around with Beeb's sports bar.
Nothing special about this course. It's a really good deal after 4:00pm
Good Golf Course!!This course again has a pretty good variety of holes. The greens when at their best are in very good shape, but the fairways always struggle to stay green. In the winter, they are mud pits. Still, I play this course a ton, and enjoy the value.

Twitter Inc. gets The Best Financial Year
"I'm proud of the steady progress we made in 2017, and confident in our path ahead" are the words of San Francisco based Twitter Inc. CE, Jack Dorsey who added contentedly "a strong finish to a year".
Dorsey has every right to be pleased with his own words as Twitter for the first time since going public saw its most profitable year to date. The company that had been in financial doldrums and was contemplating selling off or a merger came through this year showing a 15% surge in the trading news.
That is more than enough to sustain rather make the shareholders happy with earnings showing worth $91million in the last financial quarter culminating in a success that Twitter may well had prayed for.
All the best to the 330 million users of Twitter worldwide and happy Tweeting.


text: wee g 0 Report post Posted September 21, 2011 After watching another disappointing performance from a depleted starting 11,is it time for a few changes to the starting 11. McCall stated at the beginning of the season that he would give the boys a chance instead of going out and getting loan signings from England. Well it`s time he trusted some of his boys now! The reserves have not been beaten this year yet, but with McCalls lack of playing subs, none of these guys are getting playing time. The starting 11 seem to have an attitude that if they do not perform it`s ok, cos they will still be in the starting 11 the next game. (this is starting to do my head in). We started the Clyde game with 6 bench players (Lee Hollis, Jon Page, Jordan Halsman, Bob McHugh, Ross Forbes and Steven Lawless) with Carswell & Smith coming on later and before anyone states that it was only Clyde, i know it was, but all the above have experience out on loan or with their previous club. We need to give these lads a chance and start playing them. This should make the 1st team squad a lot more competitive and give some so-called 1st team starters a kick up the arse they need. In my opinion some of these guys are better footballers than we have starting and would also give a lot more to the team than some who are constant starts. Come on McCall Saturday is the day to start trusting your boys!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been thinking about New Zealand poetry, which has been in the news, at least on my particular wavelength, and seems to have gathered itself into a collage:
Yesterday I read Dominic Hoey's poem "Our Talents Are Super Powers" many times. I like these lines:
The first time people see her fly they laugh like children
"Oh my god, how'd you do you that!?"
but then they grow sceptical
"I mean whats its practical application?" they ask
"she's flying!" I yell
they shrug and go back to their phones
Last Friday was Phantom Billstickers National Poetry Day, which presented New Zealanders with "the opportunity to come together and unleash the power of poetry in their own communities."
Booksellers NZ: "Happy #NZPoetryDay everybody! Get yourself to a bookshop, a cafe, a library or a street near you & celebrate with some fine NZ poets as they emerge, blinking, from their writing hubs to share their craft." About 150 events and activities were held across New Zealand in connection with National Poetry Day.
Time Out Bookstore, Auckland: "This Friday our annual All Tomorrow's Poets event for @0800phantom National Poetry Day is happening. Featuring these five amazing poets--portraits drawn by our own @selcouthbird.'
"I love the attention National Poetry Day brings to poetry, its power and significance. A day like this reminds me why poetry matters; not just for 24 hours, but for life," poet Siobhan Harvey wrote. "Poetry matters also because it is democratic. It knows no barriers or prejudices. Age; gender; class; ethnicity: poems can be written by all.... Broadcaster John Campbell once said that poetry could stand next to rugby as our national sport. So today, and every day participate in poetry. Read it. Write it. Let it matter to you."
Here's Courtney Sina Meredith "acing her Phantom Billstickers #NZPoetryDay Breakfast interview. And then, there was her powerful and moving performance poetry piece. Simply beautiful."
|Tayi Tibble with her poetry poster
Phantom Billstickers again celebrated National Poetry Day with well-placed posters.
" 'Something really interesting and fun, dazzling, sometimes powerful' are words Steve Braunias uses to describe the resurgence of New Zealand poetry in the introduction to his anthology The Friday Poem: 100 New Zealand Poems," Stuff NZ reported. Braunias introduced the "Friday Poem" slot on the The Spinoff in 2015. "Over the past five years, it has provided a platform for emerging writers to showcase their voice."
@MakerFaireWgtn: "Happy National Poetry Day! #nzpoetryday One of our makers for this year's Maker Faire 'RusticWriters' will type up hand written poems for individuals on a typewriter!"
Unity Books Wellington: "What a fine National Poetry Day! It was our pleasure to host poets featured in Wild Honey: Reading NZ Women's Poetry. Words & pics in the blog."
"You're onto something," @NZPoetryDay responded after @AnneKennedee tweeted: "Poetry Day should be a national holiday instead of that weird day in June for a queen's birthday. Long live Queen Selina and King David."
"It's poetry day, I don't have time to sleep," Peter Aldrich, who planned to be "doing all things poetry for 24 hours," told Stuff NZ. "I like to take words literally and a day is 24 hours, it's not poetry half an hour, it's poetry day."
|Dave Eggleton
On National Poetry Day, David Eggleton was named poet laureate for 2019–2021, succeeding Selina Tusitala Marsh ("Never piss off a poet"). Chris Szekely, chief librarian of the Alexander Turnbull Library, described Eggleton's appointment as further recognition for "a poet of consequence whose work continues to develop and mature. David is a significant and widely-respected voice in New Zealand poetry whose work is representative of life in Aotearoa in all its breadth and diversity."
"I see the role of poet laureate as promoting the appreciation of poetry in the community, and everywhere--schools, theatres, nightclubs, festivals, as well as overseas and in the media," Eggleton said. "I will be advocating for a more public presence of poetry and for events that celebrate the craft of poetry."
Veronica Alfano told Radio NZ that committing a text to memory is an act of cultural sharing: "I think that's one advantage to having a culture of pedagogical memorization, if there's something that many in a culture share in common.... I've also found that one that's committed to memory will pop into my mind and almost clarify my own emotions to me. If you don't fully understand the emotional implications of a poem when you're a fairly young school child, if you take that poem with you, it can serve as a kind of lens on your own emotions on your own experiences later in life in a really powerful way."
From Eggleton's "Game":
They catch the future, turn it over in their hands;
then down they scrum, with mud-flecked faces.
Again they fall, as if thrown to the very bottom,
held down in the muddy slither of trenches.
Climbing up again through troughs of rain,
they are the whole earth, kicking for touch.
From Nikki-Lee Birdsey's "Mutuwhenua":
Come on, we'll take a ride out to the bay,
you say, it'll all go by so fast,
we'll look at the small, cold islands out there,
some just for rich people, some just for birds.
I'd like to memorize some of these poems; it might feel like flying.

Zoe is a character exclusive to The Handmaid's Tale television adaption. She is the leader of a small group of refugees attempting to flee Gilead, who takes in Luke Bankole. She appears in the season 1 episode The Other Side and is portrayed by Rosa Gilmore.
Biography Edit
Background Edit
Nothing is really known about Zoe's background, though she is described as being an "army brat," and was very likely serving in the military, being "stationed in South Carolina" around the time of the Gilead-takeover. She was proficient with firearms (Zoe was seen armed with a Colt M1911A1 pistol when she picked up Luke) and also has medical training.
During the period after the Sons of Jacob's coup d'état against the United States government, Zoe and a couple of US Army soldiers she was stationed with in South Carolina were among the first people to discover Gilead's Handmaid program when they found a high school gym filled with young women held under armed guard by the Guardians. Many of the women in the high school gym had their children taken away by the Guardians and the women were in process of being turned into Gilead's first batch of Handmaids.
When Gilead came to power, Zoe prepared to flee to Canada and picked up several other escapees along the way, unable to bring herself to abandon them, including a Catholic nun named Christine; a gay man named Peter, a driver named Lila, and an unnamed woman (later revealed to be named Erin) whom she liberated from a Red Center.
The Other Side Edit
Zoe is looking for supplies in an abandoned town near the Canadian border when she and Erin come across the injured Luke, who had escaped from two Guardians after the ambulance they were transporting him in crashed. Due to the fact he is wearing a Guardian coat and was carrying a Glock 17 handgun he took from a dying Guardian, Zoe and Erin believe him to be a Guardian, with Zoe holding him at gunpoint until he convinces her he is not. Zoe inspects his bullet wound and determines he will die from a loss of blood unless she helps him. She and Peter carry him to the bus they are using as transport and she treats his wound, saving him.
When a slightly recovered Luke tries to get off the bus, demanding that Lila pull over, Zoe puts her hand on her gun, subtly threatening him into sitting down, as it is too dangerous to stop. When they reach the border, Zoe offers to let Luke come with them, saying they have bartered passage to Canada on a motorboat that is picking them up after dark. Luke refuses, insisting on heading back to Boston to try and find his wife June Osborne and daughter Hannah Bankole, who were both taken by Gilead. Zoe takes Luke to a nearby church and shows him dozens of bodies of men and women strung up from the rafters by their necks, graffiti covering the church's interior walls calling the church's congregation "gender traitors" and all the church's stained-glass windows and statues smashed (all of this vandalism was done personally by Guardians). She forces Luke to look at them, telling him that these people attempted to hide the fertile women from the regime inside the church and fought back. As a result, they were all executed by Guardians. Zoe says that anyone who rebels or is deemed to be of no value to Gilead ends up this way and that if Luke stays, the same will happen to him, leaving his family alone. Zoe also tells Luke the US Government has people in Canada that can help him in rescuing his family from Gilead.
This finally convinces Luke to join them in escaping to Canada. When the boat driver insists Luke has to pay for his passage, Zoe becomes angry and tries to stand up for him, but the driver dismisses her. After Luke hands over medicine and his gold wedding ring, he is allowed onboard, only for Gileadean patrols to ambush them, opening fire on the boat and those attempting to board. Zoe engages them in a firefight in an attempt to hold them off, but is shot in the chest and fatally wounded by a sniper.

New Year's resolution: schedule writing and no email until after 9am
It's a new year and my number one New Year's resolution is to write more and more regularly. The trouble is how to steal back the time to do it. I have tried scheduling writing, and journal reading, but something always comes up. I seem to lack the backbone or selfish heart to tell students and fellow faculty with urgent problems to go away and leave me alone during my reading and writing times. So here is my solution that I hope does not get me into too much trouble. I am going to write first thing in the morning at home, or at school with my office door firmly shut first thing every morning, and not read any email until after 9am in the morning. That last part has me a bit worried as I have a 9am genetics lecture this semester so I will essentially not be contactable until after 10am MWF. This is also going to require some discipline to make sure I don't have any other anticipated urgent business to do before lecture. Unfortunately I see no way around this. The morning is my best time intellectually and I have noticed that the only things I can be 100% certain of doing happen before I open my email in the morning. So let's see how it goes and maybe I can revive this blog in the process!

Position: Elementary School Teaching Fellow
Reports to: School Director
Who We Are
The United Schools Network (USN) is a nonprofit organization in Columbus, Ohio, that starts and manages urban public charter schools that close the opportunity gap. The network includes two high-performing middle schools, a high-performing elementary school, and launched a second elementary school in the fall of 2017. We are seeking a Teaching Fellow to join our network at either United Preparatory Academy-East or United Preparatory Academy-State St.
Vision & Mission
Vision: For every child, an open door.
Mission: Transforming lives and our communities through the power of education.
Core Values
We hold high academic and behavioral expectations to ensure the growth of every student.
We engage and grow competent and experienced school leadership and staff.
We offer a rigorous academic program with intentional student supports and a comprehensive character education program.
We provide clear standards, research-proven curriculum, and frequent assessment.
We are a mission-driven school community.
Our Students and Results
Admission is open to all students; academic proficiency is not considered during the admissions process.
75% of our students are students of color and 90% are economically disadvantaged.
USN schools serve students in grades K-8 and have a robust alumni services program.
USN 8th graders regularly gain acceptance to the top high school programs in the city.
Position Description
The Teaching Fellow position provides a unique opportunity for talented individuals to explore the field of urban education and to gain hands-on practice and the training necessary to become a successful full-time classroom teacher. Teaching Fellows will have an opportunity to observe best practices in classroom instruction and education reform from experienced teachers and school leaders at a leading network of charter schools. Teaching Fellows observe and learn from experienced educators, co-teach with teacher-leaders, provide in-house substitute teaching coverage for teachers, and support teachers with tutoring, grading, and individual or small group student instruction.
Depending on school needs and candidate background, Teaching Fellows may teach their own class of students, allowing for direct teaching experience within a more limited teaching load. Teaching Fellows will also assist with a variety of work inside and outside of the classroom including teaching enrichment classes, organizing student events, and developing mentoring relationships with students. Through full participation in summer and school-year professional development, as well as regular meetings with school and teacher leaders, Teaching Fellows will have many opportunities to gain the experience and support necessary to develop their teaching skills. By the end of the year, Teaching Fellows will be strong candidates for full-time teaching positions within the network.
Major Performance Responsibilities and Duties:
Teach classes on behalf of teacher-leaders who are observing other teachers.
Provide substitute teaching coverage for teachers within the school.
Periodically plan and deliver instruction, gradually taking on more responsibility throughout the year as assigned by the School Director.
Support students by providing tutoring, intervention and homework assistance.
Observe teacher leaders in order to improve instructional techniques and classroom management.
Meet regularly with a coach to implement feedback on lessons and instruction.
Assist teachers with instruction, assessments, grading, and other classroom responsibilities.
As appropriate, perform all duties expected of classroom teachers, including but not limited to:
Implement curricula and activities to meet academic standards.
Design and implement assessments that measure progress towards academic standards.
Use assessment data to refine curriculum and inform instructional practices.
Participate in collaborative curriculum development, grade-level activities, and school-wide functions, events, and trips.
Provide consistent rewards and/or consequences for student behavior.
Serve as an advisor to a group of students.
Help co-lead advisory/homeroom in the morning and afternoon.
Supervise students during transitions, breaks, breakfast, lunch, recess, and afterschool.
Participate in summer and school-year professional development.
Joining Our Team
United Preparatory Academy will consider hiring a full-time Teaching Fellow who:
Is dedicated to educational success for all students.
Is committed to using data-driven instructional practices and the techniques outlined in Teach Like a Champion 2.0 to improve student outcomes.
Is relentless in writing and refining curriculum, lessons, and assessments.
Is open and committed to implementing frequent feedback from lead teachers and school leaders.
Communicates effectively with students, parents, and colleagues.
Holds a B.A./B.S. degree.

Important Questions to Ask Before Buying a UV Flatbed Printer
Making a significant investment in a piece of equipment that could cost as much as a luxury car is obviously a big decision. If you are running a small to medium-sized enterprise, it is imperative that you do not rush into making such a decision. A UV flatbed printer is one of the most expensive types of printers available right now and is generally used by private companies for printing on different types of materials such as acrylic, Dibond, Sintra, Fome-cor, or even point-of-sale displays. Before you buy a flatbed printer for your needs, here are some important questions that you should ask.
Why Do You Want One?
Are you buying a UV flatbed printer to upgrade from the one you already have or do you want to add another to meet your rising needs? For instance, you might be looking to replace your old printer because it has become outdated or doesn't work as well. Or you might be looking to add another in order to meet your production needs. If you want to replace the older model, check to see if you want the same model or if you would like to upgrade it. Similarly, if you are adding another printer to your lineup, you can also check other brands available on the market.
Lease or Buy
Because the costs of buying a UV flatbed printer are so high, many companies offer financing facilities to their customers as well. You don't have to pay a lump-sum amount for the flatbed printer and can also get it on affordable installments. This is an easier option because you only have to pay a percentage of the price as the down payment and the rest in installments on a monthly basis.

Microsoft Edge beta for Android gains password syncing and more
Microsoft has just given mobile users a more compelling reason to use Edge as their web browser -- and heaven knows one was needed. The latest update to the mobile browser brings a genuinely useful feature: password syncing.
The announcement that Edge was coming to Android and iOS came somewhat out of the blue, and now it seems that Microsoft is intent on making it a real contender for the mobile browsing crown. Password syncing is the headline addition to the browser, but it's not the only thing that's new.
See also:
Microsoft has, slowly, been trying to blur the boundaries between mobile and desktop usage, and this latest update to Edge is just the most recent example of this. Edge may not be the most popular browser for Windows 10 users -- by quite some distance -- but the introduction of password syncing is a reason to consider revisiting it.
The other new feature of the Microsoft Edge beta is slightly less significant, but one that will no doubt still be welcomed by users: there's now a dark theme for you to activate.
You can download the latest beta version of Microsoft Edge from Google Play.

A New Day- Reflections and Lessons from the Past
Tomorrow starts a new day in ministry but it also brings back memories of the past. A few years ago I was part of a fledgling fellowship group who spent time worshipping and studying out of my home. The community and the study was great. We had no real aspirations of being anything more. Maybe with time we could become more. Simply we were happy and content where we were and the small steps we were taking to push ourselves to something more. Then a consultant suggested to us that we had a enormous potential and we were not fulfilling what God was calling us to be. Within a month we were preparing to launch/ preview something more. Our team was excited… the possibilities that were floating around was endless. I remember standing on the stage/ pulpit area with my assembled "congregation" and shaking. In the matter of weeks we had gone from a handful of us to a borrowed Sanctuary of 45. I was shaking because people actually showed up. Did those people know that it was me that was leading this? After-all, it was me in all my insecurities and failures leading this. Ultimately, this group became part of something great and most of my core team has matured in faith as we walked those shaky paths together.
As I write this right now, those same feelings are washing over me. For the past four months I have been making a concerted effort to reach out and develop relationships in the community. This is one of the first major steps in creating a new worshipping community. Tomorrow is our first "large" gathering, where we bring these people together for the purpose of developing a deeper sense of community and faith. The tone of this "new thing" really starts tomorrow, and my knees are shaking. Will anyone show up? Will it last? Is this what God wants us to do? Am I adequate? All these questions and more keep running through my head. One thing I do know… God is in charge and I am simply along for the ride. I am reminded that we are in this time and place for a particular purpose much like Esther:
For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this? -Esther 4:14
Please keep us in your prayers as we start this whole "new thing" tomorrow.

Waiting for the ice to break up on a Vermont lake may seem like watching paint dry, but if you walk away with $4,216, it's worth it.
A Montpelier man won the cool cash in a bet on how long it would take for a cinder block to fall through the ice at Joe's Pond.
Locals have been betting on when the ice on the northern Vermont lake breaks up for the past 20 years.
Visitors to parks in Walkersville, Md., have had their paper-towel privileges revoked.
Town officials removed the towels from park bathrooms after vandals set a fire in one.
Until hand dryers are installed, visitors are out of luck.
This is a charming three-bedroom with attached garage, fireplace – and corpse.
Prospective home buyers in Janesville, Wis., made the gruesome discovery when they found the owner's body in her bed.
Linda O'Leary, 55, had been dead for about two weeks. No foul play was suspected.
Graceful, snowy-white egrets are prized for their beauty, but folks in Hutchinson, Kan., couldn't hate them more.
Thousands of the migratory birds have chosen the town to settle in each spring, wandering onto roads and fouling property.
Problem is, they are a protected species, so driving them off requires imagination. Officials have tried tying shiny ribbons to trees, placing owl decoys and firing flares, but the birds keep coming back.
When two canoeists in Twin Falls, Idaho, helped pull a body from a river after a woman jumped off a bridge, they were stunned to be handed $85 tickets – for failing to have life jackets aboard.
"The body was right there," said one of the canoeists. "A girl deputy was trying to console everybody. Then the sergeant walked up. He said, 'I see you don't have any life jackets, so I am going to give you a citation.' It seemed a little cold."
The county sheriff stood by his officer, but did question his timing.

Mississippi's beaches have long attracted tourists to the area, but with a new face at the helm of the Visit Mississippi Gulf Coast, the tourism office is looking to grow its reach.
"The Mississippi Gulf Coast offers an incredibly vast array of things to see and do," said Milton Segarra, the new CEO of Visit Mississippi Gulf Coast. "The region's temperate climate, along with its astounding natural beauty, makes for the perfect year-round destination, and there is always something exciting and new to experience."
Segarra brings with him more than 30 years of experience in hospitality and destination marketing and management, with hotel and casino experience at Hyatt Hotels, Sands Hotels & Casinos and Hilton Hotels and Resorts. His experience in governmental organizations include the position of executive director of The Puerto Rico Tourism Company, as well as secretary of commerce and economic development. He spent over four years as CEO of Meet Puerto Rico, the destination marketing organization responsible for promoting unique group and convention experiences in Puerto Rico, before moving to the Mississippi Gulf Coast in January.
Segarra said his team is starting by making sure that they maximize and provide continuity to several ongoing initiatives. He said the community can expect changes in our business model, brand, and new and enhanced strategic partnerships. He has committed himself and Visit Mississippi Gulf Coast to a collaborative approach involving all industry partners and the local government.
"I am from Puerto Rico, and was living there when I was contacted regarding the opportunity to work with Visit Mississippi Gulf Coast," he said. "I visited the region twice before making the decision to move permanently with my family. From the moment I arrived, I felt extremely comfortable and welcomed, which is largely due to the incredibly warm and hospitable people I encountered. This initial sentiment, combined with the vast array of activities, attractions and experiences that the area has to offer, made the move to the Mississippi Gulf Coast an easy decision to make."
And though Segarra's decision to move was easy, he realizes his initial effort needs to focus on becoming an expert in the region's culture.
"First and foremost, truly understanding the culture and inner workings of the Mississippi Gulf Coast is not a challenge, but a priority of mine," he said. "I am determined to influence and adjust this region's path and its outcomes in the tourism industry, and create the necessary disruption that will ultimately lead to growth and increased economic impact."
The culture may take longer to understand, but he has already identified the unique qualities of Mississippi's coast. From outdoor activities, such as kayaking, boating, fishing, birding and hiking, to world-class gaming and 62 miles of shoreline, the area offers something for everyone.
"Visitors can discover the true essence of the Mississippi Coast life at our unique attractions and museums, and dine at truly local eateries, from quaint coastal seafood spots, to fine dining establishments," he said. "Each of our 12 coastal communities has something different to offer: from our harbor towns and beautiful, walkable downtown areas shaded with live oaks, to world-renowned shows and casino headliner entertainment."
Visit Mississippi Gulf Coast's mission centers on attracting ever-increasing numbers of leisure, convention, sports and business visitors to the area. It is dedicated to maximizing the travel and tourism industry for South Mississippi. For more information, visit gulfcoast.org to learn more.

End Uses
Manufacturers familiar with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ENERGY STAR® Energy Treasure Hunts initiative know it's a great way to save energy and natural resources – as long as it's done right – which is why some are turning to perhaps their best asset to achieve success: their unionized workforce.
Technological trends in plastics manufacturing are driving the costs of production down. In industrial PET blow molding specifically, two innovative techniques have had major impacts over the last 15 years: "light weighting" the plastic bottles, and recirculating high-pressure compressed air. Both have helped to improve the energy efficiency of PET blow molding by reducing compressed air requirements dramatically.
PET Power Containers, a Canadian manufacturer of PET plastic containers, had plans for expanding its operations with the addition of more blow-molding equipment. Before the expansion could happen, however, the company needed to assess its compressed air system. Based in Vaughan, Ontario, PET Power provides a dizzying array of differently shaped and sized plastic bottles. Their operations run 24/7, and compressed air plays a key role in their primary manufacturing applications, including PET blow molding, PET preforming, and labeling bottles.
A Canadian fiberglass plant has completed a lengthy compressed air improvement journey and achieved significant efficiency gains by applying "the systems approach." Along the way, the company ran across many frustrating problems, the solutions to which were only determined after the entire system was monitored holistically using data loggers. The overall compressed air audit led to a reduction in energy usage of 48 percent, yielding savings worth $17,500 per year. The project also qualified for a large utility incentive of $32,000 with a calculated payback of 4.4 years.
Sometime in mid-2015, I received a call from a project engineer at a major plastics firm. He had a troubling issue with one of his PET bottle plants. The bottom line was this: They could not run all five high production blow-molding machines at one time—even though they were able to do so 18 months previously.
Air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pumps are common to many manufacturing facilities. As estimated by veteran compressed air auditor Hank van Ormer of Air Power USA, approximately 85 to 90 percent of plants in the United States have AODD pumps. They are used for all kinds of liquid transfer applications, like those found in chemical manufacturing, wastewater removal, and pumping viscous food products.
One of the statements made in the Compressed Air Challenge's Fundamentals of Compressed Air Systems seminar is that improvements can always be made to every compressed air system, including new ones. The statement definitely applies to a Canadian pork processing facility built a few years ago. This article is based on a compressed air audit performed two years into the life of a brand new plant. The audit found numerous problems and made recommendations that helped reduce plant compressed air operating costs by 60 percent.
In recent years, we have seen an upward trend of higher production manufacturers wanting to integrate their air gauging quality checks from a stand-alone, outside-of-machine device where the operator is performing a manual check to an automated in-process gauge. There are several reasons for this trend, including higher quality standards, tighter tolerances, as well as running a leaner operation. The benefits are 100 percent inspection of the required geometric callout, as well as handshaking between measuring device and machine to make each piece better than the prior one. It also removes any bad parts.
When a company is considering making an investment of more than a million dollars in system upgrades, it is crucial for them to review all options to get the best return. By exploring energy efficiency impacts throughout the entire compressed air system, vendors can propose projects resulting in both a larger sale for them and increased financial benefits for their customers, while still meeting capital expenditure guidelines. This "best of both worlds" scenario was evident when a foundry in the Midwest was evaluating options for replacing its steam system used to drive the plant's forging hammers.
EnSave, an energy auditing company based in Richmond, Vermont, recently performed compressed air audits at two facilities of a leading U.S. steel manufacturer. Both plants are mills that melt, cast, and roll steel to produce a variety of products, including: rebar, merchant bar, steel flats, rounds, fence posts, channel bar, steel channels, steel angles, structural angles and structural channels. These products are used in a diverse group of markets, including: construction, energy, transportation and agriculture. Compressed air is provided at 100 psig in both plants for a variety of applications — from optical sensor cooling to pneumatic cylinders for stacking finished products.
Compressed Air Performance Specialists (CAPS Inc.) is a compressed air consultancy located in Calgary, Alberta. In its most recent compressed air project, the company reduced a 200-hp, multi-compressor system down to a single, 100-hp variable speed drive (VSD) air compressor utilizing 75 hp of compressor energy (kWh), resulting in $70,000 in annual energy savings.
