With the HTC One X+ due to come out on AT&T in the States this Friday, we thought it was time to put it against another flagship device that's also available on AT&T, the Galaxy Note 2. Both are quad-core devices running Android 4.1 – Jelly Bean. So this will be a tough fight, but we will have a winner. Let's jump on into the spec's and see who has the better specs.
Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Where to begin with the Galaxy Note 2? There's so many great things about the Galaxy Note 2. Let's start with software. It's running Touchwiz on top of Android 4.2 and brings in quite a bit of Samsung apps, and features. Including S-Memo, S Voice, Smart Stay, and more. Smart Stay is by far my favorite feature. It uses the front-facing camera to see if you're still looking at the screen, and if you are it will keep the screen on, if not it goes off like it should. Pretty useful when reading a book, or this article on your Note 2.
Then there's the hardware. A beautiful plastic body. Some people think it feels cheap, but I think it looks and feels great. Along with that amazing display and huge 3100mAh battery to power it all day long. This is a great phone. While the large screen might be a turn off for some, many others are going to love it. My advice, if you think it's to large, go to a store and check it out. You may actually quite like it.
- Gorgeous Super AMOLED 5.5-inch display
- Huge 3100mAh battery
- Touchwiz; While Android purists will hate it, those who like the features it brings will love it
- Available on all of the major US carriers
- While the screen is beautiful, it may be to large for some
- The 3100mAh battery is large, it's battery life won't be better than the Droid Razr Maxx HD, who has a smaller screen and a larger battery
HTC One X+
If you've watched our podcasts lately, you know our gripe about HTC and them not releasing the same device on all the US carriers like Samsung. But aside from that the One X+ is a great device. Not to cool with the name though. Starting with software, the One X+ comes with Android 4.1 and Sense 4+ already installed. No waiting for updates. If you've used an HTC device in the past, you might remember how crappy and bulky Sense was. Well starting with Sense 4, that all changed. HTC has also included Beats Audio on the One X+, and it works in all the applications.
Onto the hardware. HTC is none for their beautiful designs. Their phones look like premium devices, and they should be. Until you turn them on, and see an older version of Android with Sense. But this bad boy is running a Tegra 3 quad-core processor with a full gig of RAM and a beautiful 4.7" SuperLCD2 display. Which is one of the best looking displays I've seen in a long time. The only one better is probably the HTC J Butterfly or Droid DNA.
- Tegra 3: this processor feature the 4-plus-1 technology. Where it actually has 5 cores. 4 are running at a higher speed, with a fifth running at a slower speed to get most tasks done without using more battery power
- 64GB of internal storage People whine about non-expandable storage all the time. But with 64GB internal, who needs a SD card? And yes the AT&T version is coming with 64GB
- Sense 4+ and Beats Audio; Feel free to flame me in the comments, but I actually like Sense. It looks and acts much better since ICS came out with the One Series. Sense 3.x was horrible, but Sense 4.x was refined and looks amazing and doesn't slow down your phone as much as in the past
- No expandable storage; talked about this already. People like to have the option. But with 64GB internal already, is it really needed?
- Sense 4+; yes I have to play devil's advocate here. Like I said with the Note 2, Android purists are going to hate Sense 4+, because it's not stock Android, and looks nothing like Stock Android.
And the winner is…..can I get a drum roll please? The Samsung Galaxy Note 2. It offers basically everything the HTC One X+ does and more, except for build quality, that's all HTC. But I still say, go into an AT&T store and try both of them out. If you find the Galaxy Note 2 is to large for you, then you'll want the One X+. Which ever device you choose, you will love it. Both devices are powerful, and can handle just about anything you throw at them.

Homemade Lime Cordial
Summer season is slowly coming to an end here in Santa FE, which means I might actually have time to get some work done. But I am not ready to give up on some sensational summer sippers. One of my favorites being the Gimlet.
Back in the 1867, Luchian Rose came up with a way to preserve lime juice without the use of alcohol. That same year the Merchant Shipping Act passed Parliament requiring all ships to carry a daily ration of lime for its sailors. Rose's Lime Cordial was used because it was lighter easier and wouldn't spoil. This is by the way why British sailors.
The Gimlet (meaning sharp or piercing) first popped up in the 1920's, and as always the debate began of what a true gimlet was. But that's another story for another day. We are here about the lime cordial
Though Rose's is still pretty natural sans the high fructose corn syrup), I decided I wanted to come up with my own Sweetened preserved lime juice.
Chris' Lime Cordial
- 8 limes
- 6 oz sugar
- 12 oz water
- 1 teaspoon Citric Acid
- 1 teaspoon Tartaric Acid
Peel all eight limes, then juice the enough limes for 1/2 cup of juice. Next combine sugar and the acids. Pour water into a medium saucepan and add sugar mixture. Over medium high heat completely melt the sugar then bring to a soft boil. Add lime peels and lime juice. return to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes. The time doesn't have to be exact ( I usually go smoke a cigarette during the simmer). Remove from heat and let stand for 12 hours. Bottle label and refrigerate.
Couple tidbits here…
Lime Cordial and fresh lime juice are in NO WAY interchangeable so you have to use Lime Cordial in your Gimlet. Using fresh juice and sugar are just not the same.
The original Cosmopolitan recipe used Lime Cordial and was simply a Kamikaze using citrus vodka and a tiny splash off cranberry.
Though some debate that the Gimlet includes soda, I have to disagree by etymology of the name alone as adding soda diminishes the "sharp" or 'piercing" qualities of the drink.
What is the right proportion? There is no way to tell, early recipes were equal parts gin and lime where others were 4:1. The International Bartender's Association has no official recipe for this one ( yet some they have sanctioned…..yikes)
So, like always play with it til you find what works best for you palate. Happy Sipping

[App] Saiy Assistant
jw library
Saiy Assistant : Welcome to Saiy® your offline voice controlled Virtual Assistant with a difference.
Saiy is the new version of utter! rebuilt from the ground up and it's now Open Source too!
In this first release, there might be a few little bugs, so please report them and don't hate me 🙁 I'll sort them as quickly as possible!
What makes Saiy different?
Saiy is not your average Siri clone and doesn't attempt to be a gimmick of a virtual assistant application, its priority is to be super functional and ultra-fast! It allows many device based commands to be performed offline, without the need for a data connection.
Saiy runs in the background of your device, is very lightweight on resource and does not have a user-interface, so its functions are available anywhere on the device, at any time, to interact with any application.
With highly optimised algorithms, Saiy aims to make voice control on your device, something you wonder how you ever did without! Something that is achieved faster than you could do it manually and an implementation that takes full advantage of the openness of the Android Platform, by giving you full device control in addition to using the functions in your favourite installed applications.
There's no need to open up a separate application to execute your voice commands. With just a mention of the hotword or a good old fashioned button press, Saiy wakes to address you as you see fit, wherever you are on your device, whatever you are doing… and it won't get in the way.
So, please do get involved, give me your feedback and help me create a Voice Controlled Personal Assistant that is truly useful! One that makes fast offline voice recognition for Android a reality!
Why so many permissions?
Saiy needs to do everything for you, hands free, so you don't have to touch the device. Permissions such as automatically sending text messages and placing calls will be used under these circumstances.
BIG Thank you to all those that have posted comments and given 5* – It's appreciated.
PLEASE don't post a 1* comment "It doesn't work" – that really doesn't help! I can't get the problem sorted! There's an email link in the application, I'd be delighted to solve any bugs you find. I hope they are few and far between now and your voice commands will be executed in under a second.

A Saturday Morning 'Stroll' With Your Toddler in Downtown Rockford
The long, humid summer is gone and if you're anything like me, you're in desperate need of a change of scenery. You've done a lot this summer: walks at Fredrick Meijer Gardens, visited your local splash pad, enjoyed the beach at Millennium Park and I'm guessing indulged in an ice cream cone (or two!) at Jersey Junction in Gaslight Village!
But now it's time for something new and Team GRKIDS is doing some recon for you. First stop: downtown Rockford.
RELATED: Introducing Grand Rapids Baby Email Newsletter
A look at how to spend a morning in downtown Rockford with your toddler in tow:
*** Note: the schedule we followed below meant skipping morning nap time.***
9am – Sweetland Chocolates and Coffee – I buckled Natalie, my one-and-a-half-year-old, in the stroller and headed to Sweetland Coffee to meet my mother-in-law for our morning pick me up: caffeine and chocolate! They serve local Madcap Coffee and Nantucket baked goods. Be warned, leaving there without a bag full of their homemade famous turtles would deserve a gold medal of some sort. Good luck!
The store is large enough to bring your stroller right in and order and even to park up next to a table for a bit if you'd like to sit and enjoy your coffee.
9:30am – Rockford Farmers Market – After getting our to-go coffees and splitting a cranberry scone we headed to the farmers market just a block away. Living near Eastown, we frequent the Fulton Street Farmers Market often and love it. In comparison, Rockford does a lovely job! Their set up was much easier to maneuver with a stroller (it's wider and more spread out with less of a crowd) and they had multiple vendors offering a plethora of fresh produce, baked goods and other items.
If you're a fan of sweet corn, be sure to hit up the vendor who weekly sets up on the northern-most spot of the market lot this fall– so tasty! You can also find fresh popcorn (Natalie started snacking on it immediately) and I found some excellent locally made beef jerky sticks that I packed in lunches later that week. You'll likely walk away with fresh flowers, squash, and apples given the time of year.
Don't forget your cash to for payment! Some vendors do take card, but cash is quicker.
10:30am – Rockford Dam Overlook – After you get through the farmers market, be sure to stroll through the Rockford Dam Overlook. Natalie loved the view of the Rogue River. If you've got a restless kiddo, this is a good opportunity to let them run around a bit. Maybe give them a little nibble of that Zestar Apple you picked up at the market moments ago. But don't rest too long, there's more!
10:45am – Shopping – Rockford has a good handful of adorable shops that are stroller friendly including second hand clothing and furniture stores, children's boutiques and even food retail such as Old World Olive Press. Some of our favorites include:
Bailey and James Boutique – Full of unique little gifts and trinkets including handmade towels, candles, framed prints, wrapping paper and there are even great baby items like homemade dolls, receiving blankets, and clothes. This shop is perfect for finding that unique gift for your best friends birthday.
Sassy Pants – Thee CUTEST kids clothing shop (and more) I have ever seen. This place is chalked full of frilly dresses for little girls, adorable overalls for your little man and other items like kids books, toys and even jewelry. I picked up a great book for Natalie's Grandpa as a gift for his upcoming birthday: 99 Reasons Why I Love Grandpa.
Aunt Candy's Toy Company – I thought we had ALL the toys, and then we visited Candy's Toy Company. They have everything from books to blocks to tea sets. There are stuffed animals, dolls, Legos and more. The store is sectioned off into ages appropriate items which is extremely helpful and the staff is willing to assist you with anything you are looking for.
Also, a giant bonus… they have a kids play area in the store! So don't worry about your kiddo taking off like a kid in a 'candy' store, there's a spot for them while you shop for Christmas gifts!
RELATED: Middle School Doesn't Have to be Hard with Northpointe Christian's 6th Grade Bridge Year
11:30am – Lunch! – at The Dam Dogs, The Corner Bar (both serve hot dogs) or Arnie's Bakery. All are located in the main block of the downtown area and all are kid friendly. Also within walking distance is Uccellos and Vitale's Pizza.
We picked Arnie's Bakery because… well, cupcakes, of course! At this point Natalie was starving and honestly so were we. Sitting down at 11:30am instead of noon allowed for us to skip the usual lunch rush which was ideal for our grumbling stomachs. But if you're looking for a quick in and out, The Dam Dogs is a better choice, and an even easier option if you're looking to enjoy the weather before it turns cold?… Pack a picnic and eat at the Rockford Dam Overlook!
12:30p – Head home for nap time and enjoy yourself while your tuckered out kiddo (and your feet!) take a rest.
If there are other locations you're interested in us scoping out for you, leave us a message! Looking forward to exploring Greater Grand Rapids for you!

With all roads leading to Rio and now less than six months to go until the Paralympic Games 2016, we caught up with Paralympics Ireland Chef de Mission, Denis Toomey, to hear all about how preparations are going for one of the biggest sporting events in the world.
Denis Towmey, who was born in Mitchelstown in Co Cork and is now living in Cork City, was Para-Cycling manager at the Games in Beijing in 2008, and also at the London Games in 2012 where Irish cyclists secured two gold, one silver and two bronze medals.
It's not all about medals though for Denis, as he is in charge of the logistics behind getting the team safely to and from Rio – this includes organising a team of 45+ athletes and 30+ support staff across 10 sports as well as transporting horses, boats and bikes all safely to the Games.
"For our athletes, competing at this elite level means that from now until the Games, sport is their life. Every day, their sport comes first," he stated.
"How they eat, sleep, work, rest and play is governed by their training and competition routine. Many of our athletes are still on the qualification trail and it will be early July before we know all of those who will be on board the plane to Rio.
"Once there, we hope for at least eight to 10 medals for Team Ireland, but we have no doubt there will be some fantastic performances along the way and a number of Lifetime Bests to celebrate."
Speaking about the highlight of his career to date since becoming involved with Paralympic sport, Denis Toomey added:
"I cried tears of joy singing the national anthem in London after Mark Rohan won Ireland's first ever para-cycling gold medal at the 2012 Games."
The full transcript of the interview is below.
You were announced as Chef de Mission for Paralympics Ireland in 2014, how did that feel?
I was honoured, privileged and a little bit shocked that I was the successful candidate!
What are your main responsibilities in the role?
To bring Team Ireland safely to and from the Games in Rio with all the necessary supports to allow the athletes perform to their best.
Speaking of Rio, how are preparations going?
We are on track at the moment and hopefully things will continue to fall into place in the coming months.
With an expected team size of 45 athletes plus another 30+ support staff covering 10 sports, the logistical headaches can certainly give you sleepless nights! Horses, boats, bikes etc all have to reach Rio safely, while we are bringing the athletes to a Holding Camp in Uberlandia around 900km from Rio in advance so that they can acclimatize and get over the jet lag.
We have a great Sports Science and Medical Team led by our Chief Medical Officer Joe Conway, who play a major part in the team's preparation and care. Our HQ staff at Paralympics Ireland are a huge support to me as we plan everything from kit sizing and supply to flight and logistics arrangements.
What are your hopes/aspirations for team success at Rio?
There is definitely potential for 8 to 10 medals to be won at Rio, but like London, we will hopefully see a few surprises and Irish athletes performing out of their skin.
Can you tell us about the team preparations between now and Rio – what does it take for these athletes to represent their country?
Competing at this elite level means sport is your life, so every day your sport comes first. How you eat, sleep, work, rest and play is governed by your training and competition routine. Many of our athletes are still on the qualification trail and it will be early July before we know all those who will be on board the plane to Rio.
Who would you list as your 'one(s) to watch'?
Our three big sports of Athletics, Swimming and Cycling will hold some of the most exciting battles – with our current world champions, Jason Smyth, Michael McKillop and Eoghan Clifford all big contenders in their fields.
While we know you are a keen cyclist, what event, aside from cycling, do you look forward to watching the most?
It is great to have our Football 7-A-Side team back at the Games so I'm really looking forward to watching them play and shooting is also one that I look forward to watching closely.
From a personal standpoint, how and when did you yourself get involved in cycling?
I took up cycling in the late 1990s to help to recover from stress fractures of shins picked up from Marathon running. My next door neighbour Jim Keogh, an ex RAS rider, got me involved and I'm now chairman of Tandem Cycling Ireland.
I've enjoyed a bit of success over the years including: Munster Hill Climb Vet Champion, National Tandem Champion 2001-2003, Tandem Pilot 2001 Para-Cycling World Champs, 2002 European Champs, 2004 Paralympic Games, Tandem Pilot Cycle Across America 2000, Mizen to Malin Tandem Record of 20 hours and 55 minutes.
How did you get involved in para-cycling?
It all began when I started doing fundraising cycles for the National Council for the Blind in 1994. Joe Bollard, a blind stoker, asked me to act as his pilot for the Cycle Across America in 2000 and that's how it all began. I went on to be a Tandem Pilot in Athens in 2004, I was the Para-Cycling Manager at Beijing 2008 and I was the Para-Cycling Manager at London 2012 where the Cycling team won 2 gold, 1 silver and 2 bronze medals.
What has been your favourite Paralympic moment to date?
I cried tears of joy as I sang the National Anthem when Mark Rohan won Ireland's first ever Paralympic Cycling Gold medal at the London Games.
What would you say to inspire people to sit down and watch the Paralympic Games this September?
It is so much better than anything else that will be on TV at the time – better than reality TV, and other big games. The way our athletes overcome – what to most of us would be adversity – to compete at an elite level on the world stage is awesome and mind blowing.
What are you most looking forward to in the coming months?
Celebrating Ireland's success at the Closing Ceremony in Rio on September 18th.
Paralympics Ireland recently launched a 'More Than Sport' campaign to enormous success – what, if possible, could you tell us that 'More Than Sport' means for you as Chef de Mission?
Anyone looking at the video that accompanies the More Than Sport campaign will be blown away by it, and get the real meaning of what Paralympic Sport is all about. As Chef de Mission I hope it will encourage all of Ireland to get behind our athletes by ensuring we are adequately resourced to give them the best support we possibly can. You can do this by texting PARA to 50300 to contribute €4.
And finally, what has been your proudest moment to date since being involved with Paralympic sport?
I was very proud to receive the "Best Team Member – non athlete Award" at the 2012 OCS Paralympic Awards. To get voted for this award by all the Irish Sports at the London Games was both humbling and a huge honour.

Low Carb Diet vs. Low Fat Diet
Hey there, I hope you're having an awesome Monday.
Make sure you take the time to read through the short article below about some VERY interesting study results comparing low carb vs. low fat diets.
Great info from the Rogue Nutritionist, Jonny Bowden.
Study Results: Low Carb vs. Low Fat?
by Dr. Jonny Bowden – Author: Unleash Your Thin
A study that Johns Hopkins researchers presented at a recent American Heart
Association meeting showed the more belly fat you lose, the better your arteries
can expand, which allows more blood to flow to your heart, brain, and other areas.
The six-month study divided 60 men and women into two groups that combined
either a low-fat or low carb diet with moderate exercise. Both groups ate the
same number of calories.
Researchers used a blood flow test to evaluate participants' vascular health.
They measured how much blood reached their fingertips before, during, and
after a blood pressure cuff restricted arterial flow.
Measuring blood flow to your fingertips, by the way, provides an
indication about your overall vascular health.
The more belly fat these people lost, the more blood flowed to their fingertips,
indicating better arterial function.
"Our study demonstrated that the amount of improvement in the vessels was
directly linked to how much central, or belly fat, the individuals lost, regardless
of which diet they were on," said lead researcher and John Hopkins professor
Kerry J. Stewart.
"This is important since there have been concerns that a low-carb diet, which
means eating more fat, may have a harmful effect on cardiovascular health.
These results showed no harmful effects from the low carb diet."
If you've seen firsthand how powerfully a low carb diet helps burn fat and boost
health, you'll be thrilled with these kinds of studies. Finally, researchers admit a
low-carb diet trumps low-fat diets for fat loss as well as vascular (and other)
health measures.
Better late than never!
But the news gets even better: participants on a low carb diet in this study lost
an average of 10 pounds more than those on a low-fat diet.
"After six months, those who were on the low carb diet lost an average of
28.9 pounds versus 18.7 pounds among those on the low-fat diet," Kerry said.
If you follow these studies, you know researchers allow a wide margin for what
they consider a low-carb diet. Some studies severely limit carb intake to Atkins
Induction levels (20 grams or less). Others are a little more, shall we say, lenient.
This was one of the more lenient studies.
Researchers here restricted carbs to 30% of the low carb group's diet, coming
from foods like bread, pasta, and fruit… which, as you know, isn't exactly low carb.
I wonder what would have happened if researchers put these participants on an even
more restricted low carb diet that focused on lean protein, good fats, leafy green
vegetables, nuts and seeds, and berries.
In other words, the same kind of diet our Paleo ancestors thrived on, and the one
I think we're most adapted to today.
(Shaun's side note: Just make sure to strategically "add in" some healthy carbs,
like potatoes, sweet potatoes, or squash, on days you exercise intensely.)
I'm betting that their fat loss and vascular health would have improved even more.
That's what I find so impressive. Even though the low carb group devoured up to
30% of their carbs as bread and pasta, they still lost an average of 10 more pounds
than the low-fat group, which ate about double this amount of carbohydrates.
So, even reducing your carbs a little bit can provide health benefits and fat loss.
But why do it halfway? After all, eating a low carb (moderate-protein, higher-fat
whole foods) diet allows you to eat the most nutrient-rich, satisfying, fat-burning
foods on the planet. ESPECIALLY if you're sedentary.
I show you here in my new video exactly which foods turn on your fat-burning
"switch" in your body AND how to apply this strategy on YOUR body to greatly
enhance the results of the study above.
Low Carb Diet vs. Low Fat Diet
==> Low Carb Diet vs. Low Fat Diet
Dr. Jonny Bowden
Thanks Jonny! I couldn't agree more.
I've been reading Jonny's materials for several years now and he's one of the few
nutritionists out there that I usually fully agree with on most topics.
But I am a huge believer that high intensity exercisers NEED some starches and ripe
fruits (in limited amounts) on exercise days to prevent muscle loss and keep their
metabolisms "healthy."
If you're sedentary, the rules change. You'll need to limit starches and ripe fruits
more than exercisers if you want to keep losing the pounds.
Your body simply doesn't need glucose like an exerciser and you're more likely to
store these anaerobic fuel sources as fat.
Keep going strong,

Tasting notes: This recipe seemingly hasn't changed in decades, so don't expect something, you know, farm fresh. The hint of weird, artificial sweetness is still hard for me to put down, but it is hard to tell whether that's nostalgia talking.
Would I buy it again? As soon as possible, though now I need to track down the caramel peanut variety I never knew existed.
What other blogs/sites thought of it: It is "as good as I remember" for Erik's Rants and Recipes, too, and he also concedes that it "has a slightly stale and fake taste."

With the Federal election coming up, I pass by a ton of candidate signs to and from work in Markham (and two candidate offices). I noticed that the Conservative, Liberal, and NDP candidates have signs that say their name only, while the Green Party sign has the name and the picture of the candidate on their sign. This perks my curiosity – why do candidates decide to put (or not put) their image on signs? I can think of a couple of reasons why you would want to:
- You're a new candidate and want to be recognized
- You look awesome/trustworthy/superior human being™ and want to subliminally convince voters to vote for you
- You want to build an emotional connection with voters
For a parallel – take a look at advertisements from Real Estate brokers. The ones that I remember all have the Real Estate broker's face on them (although I can't specifically recall what they look like). That seems to indicate to me that having your face on the sign is beneficial.
Then, why would candidates choose to only advertise their name? Here's what I think:
- You are already recognized visually by the community
- Your name is recognized (because you're the incumbent etc) and much more stronger than your face
- The impact of the party colours are more important
- They expect people to glance quickly at the sign and thus not remember the details in a face
- Given the limited budget, it's cheaper to print out (and spam) simple signs
- They are really ugly
Any other ideas?

Avolution Announces Support for Revised ArchiMate 2.1 Standard
Latest updates to popular Enterprise Architecture notation incorporated into new 4.2 release of leading EA tool, ABACUS.
London, United Kingdom, December 04, 2013 --(
)-- Avolution have today announced that its latest release of ABACUS incorporates all of the enhancements introduced into the new 2.1 Specification of ArchiMate. The Open Group's ArchiMate Standard provides instruments to enable enterprise architects to describe, analyse and visualise the relationships among business domains in an unambiguous way. Specifically, ArchiMate defines a common language for describing the construction and operation of business processes, organisational structures, information flows, IT systems, and technical infrastructure, and supports the use of Enterprise Modeling tools such as ABACUS in the design, assessment, and communication of the consequences of decisions and changes within and between these business domains.
Dr Tim O'Neill, founder of Avolution, said "Maintaining support for the latest releases of commonly used industry frameworks is a high priority for Avolution. Organisations wishing to base their Enterprise or Solution Architectures on ArchiMate can confidently utilise ABACUS as their modelling tool knowing that any revisions introduced by the Open Group will quickly be incorporated". O'Neill continued, "Not only do we support the latest iterations of The Open Group's two modelling standards, TOGAF and ArchiMate, in ABACUS 4.2 we have introduced a hybrid library based on them both, combining the architecture methodology and framework of TOGAF with the drawing notation of ArchiMate".
ABACUS also supports more than 30 other industry frameworks and notations out-of-the-box, including; DoDAF/MoDAF, FEAF, PEAF, BPMN and UML. ABACUS's ontological approach means that meta-models are very easily modified or created, all through "right-clicks" or "drag-and-drops" in the standard GUI.
About Avolution
Avolution provides the ABACUS® solution which is unique to the enterprise modelling space in that it can create multiple solution alternatives (architectures) and then run various simulations (Discrete Event, Monte Carlo etc) against each alternative for metrics such as Performance, Cost and Agility. In so doing it can recommend the optimal path for investment, with predictive and quantitative certainty. More information is available at www.avolution.eu.
Build any number of solution alternatives and views all according to a completely flexible meta-model.
Analyse your architecture(s) for metrics such as; Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), Performance, Availability, Agility and many more.
View the architecture(s) and the results of any evaluation using advanced techniques such as; 3D, heat maps, capability spaces and trade-off diagrams.

Interested in more news on the Right to Die? FEN circulates on a regular basis an electronic news list (successor to the ERGO News List) with news from around the world.
Click here for the subscription page.
Under the threat of a possible court challenge, Nova Scotia has quietly changed its policy on medically assisted dying at a Catholic hospital in the province.
In a statement to Global News, the Nova Scotia Health Authority (NSHA) says: "Assessments and provision of MAiD [medical assistance in dying] will be available in a section of St. Martha?s Regional Hospital complex at the Antigonish Health and Wellness Centre."
St. Martha'ss Regional Hospital was exempt from assisted dying services as the result of a 1996 agreement between the Nova Scotia government and the Sisters of St. Martha that gave control of the hospital to the Nova Scotia government. The agreement made medical assistance in dying forbidden at the hospital in Antigonish, N.S. The Sisters of St. Martha say they believe in protecting life until the end. But the exemption riled assisted dying advocates, who argue that a hospital funded by taxpayers should be subject to the public policy that applies to other hospitals - especially now that the federal government has legalized medically assisted dying.
In January, the NSHA's interim vice-president of medicine, Dr. Mark Taylor, told Global News the province was considering a change to the policy after the advocacy group Dying With Dignity threatened a legal challenge under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. "We hope that this is the start and that Nova Scotia's regulation, Nova Scotia's position will be used as a model in other jurisdictions across the country. We're certainly pushing for that," said Jim Cowan, chair of Dying with Dignity.
Jocelyn Downie, a professor at the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie University who specializes in health law, told Global News the decision places Nova Scotia ahead of some other parts of Canada. "Governments and health authorities have failed to insist that faith-influenced, publicly funded institutions permit MAiD within their walls," she said. "[The decision] is a conclusion that will reduce suffering, respect autonomy and be consistent with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms."
There are dozens of other Catholic hospitals and nursing homes across Canada that forbid medically assisted dying, forcing some assisted dying applicants to sign request forms off-site.

Conference on Liberal Arts
There was a pretty interesting conference on "Liberal Arts Colleges in American Higher Education" last fall at Williams. Alas, I could not find any of the papers on the web. I would be especially interested to read "The Future of Liberal Arts Colleges" by former Williams President John Chandler. Does anyone know where to find a copy, or even how to contact President Chandler? I'd be interested know what he had to say.

G. Brylov, 1933The giants of the Five Year Plan
Publisher: Ogiz-Lenizogiz, Leningrad
(Lithography, 70x1005. cm., inv.nr. BG E5/597, coll. Rose)
Stalin towers over the great works of the Five Year Plan, such as the dam in the river Dnepr and the industrial complexes in Magnitogorsk and Stalinsk. Working conditions on these projects are terrible, and large numbers of political prisoners do forced labour. The quote from Stalin above reads: 'The results of the Five Year Plan show that the working class is not only capable of destroying the old, but also of building the new'.

This is one of those things that I knew in my heart for years, but I had no real evidence to support my claims.
Article in Fox News by the author of the book linked above:
".......As one who spent decades at the top of the Soviet bloc intelligence world – until, by God's grace, I defected in 1978 – I can tell you that the absolutely worst, and often irreparable, damage done to the Free World has been caused by disinformation.
In the late 1960s, KGB head Yuri Andropov, with whom I worked at one time, tasked the Soviet bloc's disinformation machinery with turning the rest of the world against the U.S. by reviving anti-Semitism. Andropov knew that the U.S. would stand with Israel and that he could convince the European leftists and the Islamic world that America was dominated by Jews.......
Andropov's disinformation came to light in 1969, when Palestinian terrorists – secretly trained at the KGB's Balashikha special-operations school east of Moscow – hijacked an El Al plane and landed it in Algeria. There its 32 Jewish passengers were held hostage for five weeks, during which time Andropov's disinformation machinery portrayed Israel and the U.S. as the main dangers to world peace........
By 1972, Andropov's disinformation machinery was working around the clock to persuade the Islamic world that the U.S. intended to transform the rest of the world into a Zionist fiefdom. He wanted us to convince Muslims that the U.S. Congress was a "Council of the Elders of Zion" which conspired to have the Jews take over the world. If we whipped up Muslim anti-Semitism, then terrorism and violence against Israel and America would naturally follow.
Thus, the Romanian DIE (counterpart of KGB foreign intelligence), which I headed, in 1972 received from the KGB an Arabic translation of the old Russian forgery, "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion." We also received "documentary" material in Arabic produced by the Soviet disinformation "proving" America was a Zionist country whose aim was to transform the Islamic world into a Jewish fief.
My DIE was ordered to disseminate these documents within its targeted Islamic countries. During my later years in Romania, the DIE disseminated thousands of copies of "The Protocols" and similar "documents" each month........."
If you are blaming the State of Israel for the violence being perpetrated by Muslims, you are are acting just as the Left wishes.
Antisemitism is very much alive in the West. It most common manifestation is that of anti-Zionism. When we hear Leftists and Leftist-inspired people in the West use the word Jew as a pejorative, the motivations for such cruel taunts will almost always be the existence of the Jewish State.
Many European "intellectuals", both the indigenous types and Jews, embraced Socialism as the way of the future. Those who did so did not reflect the attitudes of their coreligionists or fellow citizens in any way, but the label stuck with the Jews. Just as some in our society equate the global banking interests solely with the Jewish Rothschilds, too many in the West do the same with Marxism. I have read numerous articles and posts from individuals who are rightly concerned with the advance of the Western variant of Socialism that place the blame for this tragic phenomena squarely at the feet of the Jewish people and particularly with Israel.
The problem with this supposition is simple - The Left has long had an utter revulsion at the very thought of a Jewish State and seeks to destroy it, both from without and within; therefore, if one seeks to stop the Left, he had better stop blaming Israel or the Jews.
The survival of the State of Israel has been a thorn in the side of the Left from the beginning. Many early Zionists were Socialist, but they did not create a Socialist state. Once the Left realized what had actually occurred - the creation of a modern state that with the purpose of having an ethnically, religiously, and culturally identifiable people, they dropped any support for the new nation like a hot potato. Israel quickly found herself on her own - Czechoslovakia was one of the few nations that provided any real support to the fledgling nation as it fought to avoid being killed in utero .
A step back is necessary to change one's opinion. Marxism, like Islam, is pan-national in nature. It allows for no peoples, groups, or nations to remain separate from the International Communist or Socialist world order. Any Socialist party that employs the name of the nation in which it operates is only doing so to mask its intentions - Socialists (Excepting a precious few like George Orwell) want sovereign nations gone in toto. As is patently apparent in their relentless campaigns to force multiple generations into lives of functional illiteracy, denigrate all admirable aspects of a Western and Jewish history and culture (And grossly magnify the faults), deny any evidence of ethnic ancestry of peoples (In Europe, you have to look really hard to find an honest assessment of genetic data for that region), liquidate the family as a concept, and push any belief in Judaism or Christianity into the shadows, the Left wants any sense of identity excised completely.
Now that we have taken that back-step, let's look at the question:
If the Left wants to erase all national borders, destroy the family, and eliminate all senses of historical, religious, cultural and ethnic identity, why would Israel want any part of that? Virtually everything for which the Left stands exists in compete contrast with the very reason for the State of Israel. If the Left wins out - there will be no Israel.
All of the followings posts describe the campaign of the Left against Israel
In short, if you are against Leftist ideology, then you would do quite well for yourself, your faith, your country, and your civilization if you stopped conflating that system with Israel or the Jews.

Fintech firms and blockchain based technology are sometimes cast as the enemies of the traditional financial services industry – but my prediction is that in 2018, that will be proved to be a misconception.
Hedge funds, investment banks, stock traders and fund managers have a long history of viewing the world of crypto assets with suspicion. The likes of Warren Buffet, Ray Dalio (American billionaire investor) and Jamie Dimon (Chairman and CEO of JP Morgan) have all criticised the industry to varying extents. Yet the tide is turning and indeed, Dimon has since expressed his regret at calling bitcoin "a fraud".
What has changed? Institutional investors tend to be smart people, and most have maintained at least an intellectual curiosity in cryptocurrencies and the blockchain, ever since a mysterious entity, "Satoshi Nakamoto", first released the bitcoin manifesto back in October 2008.
But getting involved in bitcoin in its early days would have been a big risk, as the digital currency still had many hurdles to overcome; security, stability and sustainability, to name a few, before it could be considered investable.
Doubtless, there are many fund managers and traders kicking themselves for not getting involved in bitcoin or other "alt coins": Ethereum, Ripple, Litecoin; in the bull run of 2017. Although they may have missed out on some serious profit taking, the reality is that the digital currencies were and are probably not ready for an influx of major financial players. Just a brief look at the transaction speeds across different payment networks including VISA, PayPal against other cryptocurrencies, shows that the new crypto economy still has a long way to catch up to the incumbents.
Financial services that act as enablers for bigger players to access markets have been notable only by their absence at the crypto currency party. Investors have lacked the tools they need to manage positions in a sophisticated manner; the ability to hedge their exposure, for example, cover positions, trade derivative style products, and borrow and lend securities.
How securities lending can change the game for digital asset "Hodlrs"
Securities lending has been common practice in the institutional world for decades. It enables those who wish to hold assets over the longer term (known as "Hodlrs" within the crypto community) to earn interest by "lending" their securities to other parties who wish to "borrow" them.
To make the exchange theoretically riskless, the borrower also pledges collateral of their own (over and above the amount of funds borrowed), which is cryptographically secured until the contract is over and both sides get their original assets back. The borrower makes regular interest payments to the lender in exchange for the right to borrow.
Why borrow cryptocurrencies?
There are many good reasons for borrowing a crypto asset, but the three major areas are to sell a cryptocurrency short, engaging in sophisticated trading, hedging strategies or arbitrage, or to borrow working capital in the case of some utility tokens and managing balance sheets.
For shorting, if you think a coin or token that you do not own is going to fall, you can sell it and hope to buy it back later at a lower price. However, if you sell a coin you do not own, you will need to have something to deliver to your counterparty. Short sellers, therefore, can go to a broker, or a lending platform, and borrow their desired token. The cost can vary depending upon supply and demand.
When might I wish to borrow securities?
Let's say I was over-exposed in a particular asset class, and wanted to hedge against a fall in price. By borrowing an asset that tends to move in an inverse direction to the asset I am holding, I can realise a gain to cover the loss I will experience should the market turn. If the price movement never comes to pass, I can return the borrowed assets, having lost only a few interest payments, as opposed to having to find a buyer for my unwanted stock.
Are there other reasons why I would borrow securities?
Yes, and they tend to be business critical. Covering failed trades, for example, or ensuring the right fund portfolio split.
Another example? If I wanted to take advantage of an expected fall in the price of a security, I could employ a short selling strategy, but I may have to pledge assets to cover my position at the insistence of whoever sold me the stock I am shorting. In this instance, again, borrowing securities as opposed to buying them outright is the more effective strategy.
When might I want to lend my cryptocurrencies?
If I want to increase the overall performance of my crypto portfolio through interest returns, maximising the opportunity to leverage my portfolio or finance new projects.
In the crypto economy, it is currently not possible to lend out, or borrow, crypto assets on a cross asset and particularly, institutional basis. This must change, and it will, because digital currencies are starting to attract the attention of traditional finance specialists, and they will demand the same, or better services, than they have at their disposal in the institutional world.
The ability to, for example pledge bitcoin in order to borrow Ethereum, or vice versa, provides much needed flexibility and liquidity to the crypto asset marketplace.
The fact that the crypto economy is currently taking a hit in terms of its market cap can be viewed in one of two ways. The wrong way; the bitcoin fad is finally over. Or, the right way; the crypto economy is maturing, and it is currently experiencing growing pains. Soon, it will have the underlying financial services infrastructure it deserves.

A female British recruiter for the Islamic State was reportedly killed in a US drone strike in Syria three months ago.
Sally-Anne Jones, a 48-year-old from Chatham in Kent converted to Islam and joined the Islamic State while travelling in Syria in 2013.
Married to an IS jihadist, Jones has been a useful propagandist and recruitment asset for the terror group, using her social media accounts to extol the virtues of living in the so-called Caliphate and recruit women to the cause. She is believed to have been involved in planning a number of terror attacks on British soil, including a plot to assassinate the Queen and Prince Philip in 2015.
Jones' husband, Junaid Hussain, was a talented computer hacker and considered a "high value target" by the US before he was killed in a drone strike in 2015.
Whitehall officials have not commented publicly on reports of her death, and it is impossible to confirm without collecting DNA evidence from the scene, but US sources are confident she was killed in an unmanned drone strike in June.

The development and use of sign language around the world has given the deaf great freedom of expression; however, without knowing the particular signals, a hearing individual will have difficulty communicating with the hearing impaired. The Smart Sign Language Interpreter was developed to facilitate such conversations.
The innovative product is a pair of hi-tech wristbands that have tiny accompanying fingertip sensors. As the deaf person moves his or her hands, the gadget discerns the movements and translates them into either text or spoken words. Both can be sent to the other's smartphone and the latter can be read outright. On the other hand, when the non-deaf party speaks, Prof. Jeon Sung-Su's Smart Sign Language Interpreter turns every sentence into gestures, displayed on the small screen of the 2013 Red Dot winner.

Hallmark's Social Holiday
Hallmark Channel is supporting its annual
holiday programming initiative with an aggressive socialmedia
campaign that it hopes will have viewers caroling
about its holiday movies online and on social sites like
Facebook and Twitter.
The "Countdown to Christmas"
slate of 14 original holiday movies,
along with two original animated
Christmas specials, will all
have unique ties online through
hallmarkchannel.com microsites,
as well as Facebook and
Twitter, to build audience awareness
and tune-in incentives, Hallmark
Channel CEO Bill Abbott
Social-media participation
is growing significantly among
the network's 25-54 target demographic,
Abbott said. "We're
seeing more and more of an eagerness
among viewers to view
and interact with our outside of
the television space," he said.
"We're looking to create a greater
engagement with our viewers, so
if we have an opportunity to grab
them and keep them in our environment, then that's certainly
something that we want to do."
Hallmark is already benefiting from the online and socialmedia
investment, even though most of the social-media
elements have yet to be launched, Abbott said.
The programmer drew more than 3 million combined
users to its Web
site during the
Nov. 5-6 "sneak
preview" debuts
of Love's
Christmas Journey
and Mistletoe Over
Manhattan, respectively —
about three
times the usage
for the same period
last year.
Mistletoe averaged
than 2.2 million
total viewers for
its Sunday-night
premiere, good for No. 2 among ad-supported cable movies
on the night, according to Hallmark.
Journey averaged more than 2.1 million viewers in its
8 p.m.-midnight slot on Saturday, to rank No. 3 in the adsupported
cable movie ranks for the week, the programmer
Beginning with the Nov. 19 premiere of The Case for
Christmas and running through Christmas Comes Home
to Canaan on Dec. 17, each Saturday original movie will
feature on-screen keyables or alerts to prompt viewers to
log into hallmarkchannel.com/countdown for more information
and related content.
The site will let viewers access exclusive content, including
video elements, holiday recipes and coupons for Hallmark
The site also will link viewers to military-based charity
Marine Toys for Tots, encouraging donations.
Each movie-specific online element will feature a
Christmas ornament for viewers to click onto that will expire
at the end of the movie.
Hallmark Channel has partnered with entertainmentbased
social media site GetGlue to provide "stickers" when
viewers check into the site during the movie's airing, as
well as an overall "Countdown to Christmas 2011" sticker.
A GetGlue widget will appear on Hallmark's Facebook
page, from which viewers can access all of the available
In December, Hallmark will fully jump into the interactive
space by offering QR codes during Annie Claus Is
Coming to Town (Dec. 16) and Christmas Comes Home to
Canaan (Dec. 17), Abbott said.
On-screen codes will alert viewers to hold their smartphones
to the television screen to access content such as
MP3 versions of original songs written exclusively for Hallmark
by Billy Ray Cyrus, Richard Marx and Bryan Adams
and an exclusive Cyrus music video for the Canaan theme
song. (Cyrus stars in the film.)
For users of Apple's iTunes platform, Hallmark Channel
will for the first time offer its holiday programming as well
as music products via a special "Countdown to Christmas
Room" in the iTunes Store.
Abbott said the network will look at adopting similar
social media outreach campaigns for other "countdown"
related programming stunts, although he would not provide
specific details.
"We look at this as a long-term type of opportunity
where viewers look to interact and connect with our content,
our network, our traditions and overall what the Hallmark
Channel brand is about. We're really excited about
the [social media] opportunities and the prospects that we
have across the whole year," he said.

Bringing back the 90s angst Scratchs self titled debut features cool songs like "Newer Things". What really caught me about this song was the guitar riff that features tasteful tensions. Though a lower production value than normally sought after this song makes up for it in raw energy and aforementioned guitar riff hook. The singing on "Newer Things" is reminiscent of Chris Cornell, R.I.P.
Having researched the band through Spotify and Google it was a little difficult to find more information on this act. All I can say is if you dig "Newer Things" subscribe to their Spotify and keep up with their releases as the band evolves into what I'm sure will be epic rock and roll. \m/

Maybe I Should Add Plutarch
Posted: 04/21/08 8:20 AM
I think I found another writer to add to my list of readings for April and May. I may need to wait to decide since I'm already unsure I'll hit my target. Anybody read him (in Greek) before? Thoughts? Fun? Boring? Easy? Hard?
Just in case you haven't seen it, a while back I found a great little site for ancient Greek texts in unicode. It is called The Little Sailing. Nice selection, some classical, some Hellenistic. Of course, if you want patristic, you can find much of Migne's work here.

South African state-owned transport logistics company, Transnet has agreed a cost-sharing agreement with IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, to undertake a feasibility study for the development of a storage and regasification terminal at Richards Bay.
Transnet said that it had identified significant industrial demand for natural gas and opportunities to leverage its ports, pipelines and rail assets to facilitate private investment in gas infrastructure for South Africa.
This initiative is intended to unlock the country's natural gas network infrastructure to serve existing and growing gas markets, mainly industrial and commercial off-takers located in KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga, Free State and Gauteng provinces.
Its aim is to facilitate private sector investment and partnerships with other state-owned companies (SOCs) for the development of South Africa's natural gas infrastructure. The Richards Bay Natural Gas Network (NGN) project will complement the delivery of LNG to new markets in the Eastern Cape and Western Cape provinces through the ports of Ngqura and Saldanha Bay, respectively, and will support government's future gas-to-power projects.
The LNG terminal will be developed by private investors that will be selected through a competitive process to own a majority stake in a planned special purpose vehicle (SPV). Transnet and other SOCs will also participate in the SPV.
The facilities are expected to be operational by 2024.
The NGN project includes the Richards Bay LNG storage and regasification terminal, plans for the re-purposing of Transnet's Lily Pipeline and Durban-Johannesburg Pipeline for the transmission of natural gas, and the establishment of virtual pipelines for LNG to be transported to various markets by rail and road by 2024, Transnet explained.
IFC has committed $2 mill as part of the cost-sharing agreement.

Woman Walks Ahead (2018)
Critic Consensus: Woman Walks Ahead gets some extra mileage out of watchable work from Jessica Chastain and Michael Greyeyes, but uneven pacing and two-dimensional characters undermine their efforts.

Critic Reviews for Woman Walks Ahead
All Critics (38) | Top Critics (12) | Fresh (20) | Rotten (18)
As a New York widow who travels to South Dakota in 1889 to paint Sitting Bull, the stellar Jessica Chastain can't save this Hollywoodized frontier biopic from grave historical inaccuracy.
Jessica Chastain and Michael Greyeyes bring smarts and chemistry to this worthy Western.
Woman Walks Ahead is too often one step behind in making us care.
The good intentions it carries out to the plains don't make up for the tentative falseness at its center, a hero who could herself benefit from a portraitist's clear vision.
It's all ridiculously romanticized and self-serving. But the performances are so good and Michael Eley's vistas, shimmeringly shot in New Mexico, are so stunning, it feels churlish to resist
But if it doesn't exactly feel revelatory or deeply explored as a historical document, it's still an intriguing story, capably told.

Being so far away from family can be hard, so I think trips like these are really a necessity. We had a great time together seeing all the sites, eating great food, and inviting random hotel janitors into our hotel room to teach us Spanish.
