Like most parents, I imagine, I keep a running list of things I've done well and things I've flubbed.
Help our children get lots of sleep? Check. Play fun, stimulating games at dinner? Score. Have peaceful, stress-free mornings when everyone goes into the day uplifted and on time? Hardly. Produce handsome scrapbooks with carefully captioned memories? Not a one. (We do have a few boxes labelled "keepsakes".)
In all this second-guessing, there's one area where I give myself unqualified high marks: photography. Having grown up surrounded by cameras, I take lots of pictures.
But there's another area where I'm a complete failure: video. Especially as video has assumed a larger role in the culture with YouTube, Instagram and Vine, this shortcoming has come to bother me more.
Then last winter, we visited friends in Vermont. Our hosts took my daughters snow-tubing, and their teenage son captured the action using a selfie stick, video cam and drone. Afterwards, the children disappeared for an hour and produced a brilliant 90-second video of the day, complete with a rock version of Jingle Bells. My tween daughters were rapt. I was bereft.
This summer, I vowed to capture the season on video. I would prove an old dog could learn new clicks. After all, what could go wrong?
I got a bunch of video equipment, which I promptly spread out on the table. With names like "Chesty", "Floaty Backdoor" and "3-Way", the stash seemed more suited to a Red Room than a diaper bag. No wonder this is a young man's game.
On the upside, our children really loved the act of filming. They strapped cameras onto their white-water rafting helmets, preened while scampering on a ropes course, and were excited about making a short movie with their cousins at summer's end.
On the downside, we have so many hours of video, no one will ever watch them. When the girls sat down to edit one video, they bickered over who should be director. And when I gamely used a chesty to shoot my own trip down a zipline, I got so distracted that I smashed into the ground and almost threw out my back.
The workers at these vacation spots, who hate these types of cameras, were not surprised.
"They turn people into hot- dogs," they said. "The guys with the fanciest equipment are the first to get injured."
All this got me wondering: Forget video killing the radio star, is video killing the family vacation?
Mr Nick Confalone says yes.
A television animation writer in Hollywood, California, Mr Confalone grew up with a father who was an early VHS enthusiast and shot short videos of family vacations. A few years ago, Mr Confalone pieced together clips of him and his sister coming downstairs on Christmas morning; the video went viral, garnering millions of hits.
"My father would never try to capture the entire vacation," Mr Confalone said. "He would create moments just for the camera. 'OK, here we are at the Grand Canyon, say a few words', then the camera goes away."
When Mr Confalone became a father three years ago, he followed a similar path. Vine, the platform of six-second videos, was new, and his videos quickly became a hit, attracting 250,000 followers.
Coke, Klondike and Popsicle called, and Mr Confalone's hobby became a profit centre. "One year, I made more money from Vining than I did from writing," he said.
But as Mr Confalone's son grew older, he lost interest.
"When my son was little, I could make funny voices and use him however I wanted," he said.
But soon, his son developed a mind of his own. "Now, I have to stop what he's doing and say, 'Hold on, let me get the right angle,'" Mr Confalone said. "I'm pulling us out of that moment to try to create a version of that moment."
Mr Confalone went from making a Vine a day to one every two weeks. Video, he said, is such an exact record of a moment that it threatens to replace the memories you have of that moment.
Mr Penn Holderness experienced a similar trajectory.
A one-time television reporter in Raleigh, North Carolina, Mr Holderness was struggling to get his young children to stand still for a Christmas photo a few years ago.
Instead, he decided to shoot a video accompanied by a clever song. It proved a hit, so the next year, the family donned matching Christmas jammies and frolicked around the house. Their video made national headlines and had more than 16 million views.
"I think people see a little bit of themselves in our lives," he said.
Mr Holderness was just starting a television production company, and saw an opportunity to "build a family brand", he said.
It worked. Amazon, Target and Monopoly hired Mr Holderness to make videos using their products, and this summer, the family shot a pilot for a reality series.
But while all this was occurring, Mr Holderness began to question how video was changing his family's downtime.
"If something really cool is happening, my wife and I look at each other and say, 'Capturing moments on video is what we do, but why don't we put this in our brain hole?'" he said.
"The idea is, put it in our memories and not in a camera."
Mr Holderness believes there are many upsides to taking video of family vacations, especially when the children do the filming. "It helps them become better storytellers, and they become familiar with the equipment," he said.
But there are also downsides. "I'm just terrified that I'm going to be that dad: 'Oh, my God, that's amazing! Where's my camera?' instead of using my brain and enjoying the moment."
Are all these fears about technology altering the nature of family experiences justified?
Dr Linda Henkel, a cognitive psychologist and memory specialist at Fairfield University, in Connecticut, believes yes. A grandmother who loves to take photographs, Dr Henkel said she wanted to research a situation "where you go someplace and take a bunch of pictures but don't actually review them later on. What does that do to your memory?"
In a study published last year in Psychological Science, Dr Henkel sent students to an art museum and asked them look at some objects and photograph others. In memory tests given later, subjects showed higher recall for the objects they observed without using the camera.
Though more research is needed, Dr Henkel termed this impact the "photo-taking impairment effect".
"When the subject would take a picture, it was like they outsourced their memory," she said. "They're counting on the camera to remember things for them, just like when you turn to your wife and say, 'Make sure you remind me to take the clothes out of the dryer.' You've dumped your memory onto your wife. That's what you're doing with the camera."
A similar thing happens with parents, she warned. "Photos and video will help you remember rich experiences; they're excellent cues," she said. "But if the experience wasn't rich to begin with because you're so distracted taking images you're not paying attention, then what you're remembering won't be as rich."
How do you ensure you're making rich memories? "Be involved in the experience, then talk about it later," Dr Henkel said.
"'So what was your favourite part of the day? Oh, the water was really blue, wasn't it?' That will consolidate the memory. Blue water will forever be part of it."
As summer nears its end, I haven't exactly given up on video, but I no longer think it's some huge failing. I've made peace with my unhipness. And when I do whip out my phone in the future, I'll be inclined to follow the advice of all three of the people I spoke to: Do it for a limited time.
Dr Henkel put it well. "If you want to capture an experience, be selective," she said. "You don't need three or four hours of video. Take a few seconds, maybe ask a few questions or make a few silly faces, then put the device away."
Video can't kill your family vacation if the camera is stuffed in your bag.

Presenter & Poster Information
Official Language
The official language of the meeting is English. Simultaneous interpretation will not be offered. If you do not have an adequate command of the English language, then we highly recommend that you present with a voice over.
We are anticipating 200+ physicians and scientists in attendance with varying degrees of knowledge and experience in vitiligo. Attendees will be culturally diverse, with several countries represented. You should speak clearly and slowly, so all attendees can understand and benefit from your talk.
Online Abstract System
VIS uses an online form to collect presenter, abstract and poster information. Each presenter is required to submit a separate abstract for each presentation or poster abstract. Click here for more information.
Speaker Check-In
Checking in at the Speaker Ready Area is the single most important action you will take to ensure that your presentation functions properly.
All speakers are required to check into the Speaker Ready Area. It is preferable that this is done at least 24 hours before the start of your session to ensure compatibility with the computers being used at the conference, as personal laptops cannot be used in the meeting rooms.
When you check in you should make sure all fonts appear as expected and all sound/video clips are working properly at this time. Once you have reviewed and verified your presentation, it will remain on the presenting computer.
Audio-Visual (A/V)
Presenters are required to present in PowerPoint format, 16:9 aspect ratio. You must preload your presentation in the Speaker Ready Area the day prior to your presentation (preferred) or at least 3 hours in advance of your session.
The meeting room will be operated by A/V staff that will assist in starting each presentation. Once the presentation is launched, you will control your presentation from the podium.
All computers in the Speaker Ready Area and session rooms are exactly the same and come standard with:
- PC – Windows 7 Professional
- PC – Microsoft PowerPoint (Office 201X)
The recommended video formats are:
- PC – Windows Media Video (.WMV)
Speaker Ready Area
It is not acceptable to bring your presentation a few minutes before or even an hour before the scheduled time. The purpose of preloading your presentation is to ensure that it runs smoothly on the equipment and to verify that all speakers are present. If a presentation is not received 3 hours prior to the start of the session, we will assume that you are either not at the meeting or have chosen to forfeit your time slot.
You should tell the technician in the Speaker Ready Area your name, your time, and the title of your presentation.
Poster Information & Guidelines
Poster boards will be numbered and will correspond to the Final Program Guide. Poster numbers will be emailed approximately 2 weeks prior to the meeting.
Poster set-up: TBD
Poster take-down: TBD
Any posters remaining after the above times will be discarded.
Poster Session Dates and Times
This information will be posted closer to the symposium.
Poster Production Guidelines
- The size of a poster display area is 4' x 4' (1.2m x 1.2m).
- You must use push pins/tacks to adhere your poster. You must supply your own push pins.
- No other furniture, freestanding equipment, etc. is allowed in the poster presentation area.
Selling/Order Taking
No selling or order taking is permitted, even with respect to products or services provided by non-profit enterprises. Any medications or other substances referred to in exhibit materials must be identified by their scientific names.
Disclosure of Conflict Of Interest
All authors must include COI disclosures on their posters.
Disclosure of Off-Label Usage
If any part of your presentation includes the discussion of a medical device or pharmaceutical agent that is not approved by the FDA and/or a medical or surgical procedure that involves an unapproved or "off-label" use of an approved medical device or pharmaceutical agent, this must be disclosed on your poster.
Readability of Poster Presentations
Posters for presenting medical/scientific papers afford you the opportunity to have your work viewed by a large audience. However, they also present technical challenges. To accommodate several people viewing at the same time, the size of the lettering (type) must be large enough to be legible at a minimum distance of approximately 6 feet (1.83m).
The key to a visible and eye-catching graphic presentation is contrast. Keep this in mind when choosing your shades.
For example:
- Black on white 3. White on blue
- Blue on white 4. White on black
If the presentation is typeset, choose a typeface (design of type) that is particularly simple and clear (e.g., Arial or Helvetica). The weight of the type chosen (the thickness of each letter) should be medium or bold. The actual size of the type is measured in "points". To be legible at a distance of 6 feet (1.83m), the minimum type size used should be 24 point; and to be legible at 8 feet, you should use 30 point.
Thinking about submitting a poster for the 2020 meeting? Here is a short video called, "How to create a better research poster in less time (including templates)". The video will start at 11:30.
Identification of Signs
The poster boards will be labeled with numeric identifying signs. The numeric sign will indicate where you will hang your poster, as well as correspond with the program book. The title of the presentation and authors will not be included as part of the identification sign. Poster numbers will be assigned 2 weeks prior to the meeting.
Avoidance of Commercialism

By Umoh-Obong Kingsley |
Akwa Ibom State Governor, Mr Udom Emmanuel, has credited the achievements recorded by his administration in the last three years to God Almighty and to the good people of the state who graciously entrusted him the sceptre of leadership, saying that the years had witnessed and enjoyed amazing periods of God's protection in the State.
Describing the oath of office he took on assumption of office in 2015 as a sacred covenant, which vouches irrevocable, uncompromising and resolute commitment to do good to all manners of people, he stated that with irresistible evidence, soaring hope and inspired faith, the event was not his triumph, but the victory of Akwa Ibom State.
In his 2018 Democracy Day speech, Gov Emmanuel stressed that it was the beginning of a revolutionary renewal, not the end of a race for the State. "Like the 28th American President Woodrow Wilson said, 'the object of love is to serve not to win.' Though I was elected massively in 2015, I believe the real victor in that election was the ordinary Akwa Ibom man and woman.
"Consequently, my duty has been to render selfless, transparent, integrity-laden and Christ-centric service to you, my beloved Akwa Ibomites, and thereby justify the confidence reposed in me by our Heavenly Father and your good selves."
The Governor noted his administration came prepared to win and not to make excuses, to secure the future based on the strength and promise of yesterday and the goodness of heart and ingenuity of the people, which have won accolades and commendations even from leaders and institutions of the opposing political party, such as the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) who early this year, gave him the Integrity and National Service Award, right inside Aso Rock.
It could be recalled that Gov Emmanuel had, during his oath of office, promised to be a servant-Leader, to transform the economy of the state through industrialization, consolidate and expand infrastructure, secure lives and property, empower men, women and youths and to give all Akwa Ibom persons a sense of belonging.
He also vowed to undertake rural development and integration, to have good working relationship with all the other arms of Government, to boost tourism, commerce and trade, and to build on the foundation laid by his predecessor among other promises which he graciously delivered within his three-year administration.
Over 1,701 kilometres of roads and 35 bridges have been constructed and commissioned across the state opening up the hinterland; menaces in the society have been made to face the full and merciless wrath of the law; his transparency in government has received national acclaim; workers are paid promptly and regularly
It is noteworthy that the Udom-led administration does everything against the run of play, defied the odds and the circumstances and thrived in turbulent waters and steered the ship to safe harbours. Akwa Ibom soared even when the oil prices dropped and were elevated when the nation had hyper-recession, to becoming the second State with the most Foreign Direct Investment as reported by the National Bureau of Statistics.
Over 1,700km of roads have been commissioned or at various stages of completion, 35 bridges have been completed; and the State Secretariat Annex has been completed. Other projects include the 21-Storey Office Complex which will house the International Oil Companies and change the skyline of Uyo metropolis; the ongoing construction of the 2nd Airport Runway and the upgrade of the Airport Main Runway to Category 2.
It is noteworthy, Akwa Ibom is the only state to own and maintain an International Airport. Additionally, flood control project at Nsikak Eduok Avenue, Uyo, has checkmated the flood menace, which led to occasional traffic gridlocks in Uyo.
The State Government has invested huge resources conscious of the fact that the children must be prepared to compete with their counterparts in an increasingly shrinking globalized and highly competitive world. The Free and compulsory basic education in public schools; recruitment of 4,761 quality teachers; and provision of safe, and conducive learning environment for pupils and students are paramount.
Akwa Ibom pupils and students study under the most welcoming of surroundings, and plans are underway by the Inter-Ministerial and Direct Labour Committee to refurbish and refit a few buildings that are not in an acceptable state. Over seven (7) community secondary schools have been taken-over and turned into model and modern schools, equipped with modern amenities; constructed and renovated 400 school blocks and we have undertaken 700 intervention projects.
Strategic interventions have also been taken in tertiary institutions – roads, equipment, academic blocks, etc. Subventions have been paid, free text books and other educational materials procured and distributed to public primary and secondary schools; over N600 million WAEC fees paid for children in public secondary schools annually; The Akwa Ibom State College of Arts & Science, Nung Ukim, Ikono has been upgraded to a College of Science and Technology, as well as provided significant support for the establishment of the Nigerian Navy School in Oruk Anam and Army School in Etinan.
The Power Infrastructure has been raised to meet international standards with the construction of three Injector Stations to complement the Ibom Power Plant. This forms the bedrock of the industrialization drive with Ibom Deep Sea Port as a pivotal project alongside the logistics hub, the industrial city and international Jetty.
The Syringe Manufacturing Factory (the Largest in Africa), the Electric Digital Metering Solutions Manufacturing Factory (the best in Nigeria) and the Pencil and Toothpick factory, are already in operation. The Peacock Paint Industry has been resuscitated and it is now in full operation. The Plastic Manufacturing Factory, the Fertilizer Blending Factory and Rice Processing Mill are ready for commissioning. New street lights along Oron Road, leading to the Airport have been mounted. Other projects which are in the offing include the Flour Mills and Coconut Refinery.
With kin determination to diversify the economy from over-dependence on oil, the state government under the leadership of Gov Udom Emmanuel, has made huge gains in agriculture. To date, work is on-going in the 11,000 hectares Coconut Plantation; and 16,000 hectares Cassava Plantation projects in 15 LGAs. 450 youths have been trained in cocoa maintenance, shedding and pruning and they are using these skills to grow cocoa all over the state.
It has also subsidized fertilizers and given oil palm and cocoa seedlings to farmers all over the State. Other projects include the Akwa Prime Hatchery, which produces 10,000 day old chicks weekly; the cultivation of over 100 hectares of rice, and the Free Improved Corn seed distribution program for farmers. We have constructed Vegetable Greenhouses which are ready for commissioning.
Constructions of 33 Cassava Micro-Processing Mills are ongoing; and the Training of 300 youths under the Graduate Unemployment Youth Scheme (GUYS), and all graduates in the state will be empowered with one million naira each to embark on any agricultural enterprise. Cassava Processing Factories at Ikot Okudom, Eket LGA; Nung Udoe, Ibesikpo/Asutan LGA and Ikot Ekang in Abak LGA have been refurbished and leased to private operators for the production of high quality garri, odourless foofoo and cassava flour. Over 600,000 bags of fertilizer have been produced for farmers in the State.
Over 300 rural development projects across 31 Local Government Areas; over 400 Inter-Ministerial Rural Intervention projects spanning all the 31 local government areas of the state; and rehabilitation/construction of over 500km of rural feeder roads are on-going. For the records, there is no local government that does not have more than 10 on-going intervention projects in.
A healthy population is a productive population, therefore, in the health sector, over 50 Containers of state-of-the-art medical equipment have been delivered and are currently being distributed to various hospitals; construction and upgrading of secondary healthcare facilities across the State; reconstruction and equipping of the General Hospital, Etinan; and the ongoing reconstruction of Ituk Mbang General Hospital. The Ikono General hospital has been completely renovated and equipped with the first of its kind digital medical records facilities in the State. Also noteworthy is that the state is building the Best Trauma Centre in Nigeria in a joint effort with ExxonMobil, which will come on stream in the next 18 months.
Other ongoing projects include rehabilitation of Ikot Okoro General Hospital; Awa Cottage Hospital; Relief for over 4,000 mal-nourished children; free screening and treatment of over 15,000 people for various eye diseases undertaken by Family Empowerment and Youth Reorientation Path Initiative (FEYReP), a pet project of the Governor's Wife, Mrs Martha Udom Emmanuel; training of 20 Biomedical Engineers; provision of residential quarters for 48 House Officers in the State Hospitals and 50 in the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital (UUTH); accreditation for Schools of Nursing, with 272 Registered Nurses; training and certification of 100 Doctors and Nurses in Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) with Medical Emergency Experts from the USA; and procurement of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) and Electrocardiograph (ECG) Machines for use in Emergency Response (now fitted in all our ambulances).
Over 20,000 youths have been trained in various skills, and undertaken the Construction of 10 Modern Sports Centres. In collaboration with ExxonMobil, state is building what would be the best Faculty of Engineering at the University of Uyo, alongside a Skills Development Centre in Ikot Akata, Mkpat Enin Local Government Area, which will train the needed manpower for the oil industry, and is affiliated with the Akwa Ibom State University, Ikot Akpaden. N2 billion interest free loan given to small scale entrepreneurs and traders. The First and Second Akwa Ibom State Youth Sports Festival organised successfully. Through sound financial planning, investment and management, Akwa Ibom has become the Football Capital of Nigeria, as it hosted the Super Eagles to becoming the first African Team to qualify for Russia 2018 World Cup with a match still to play, the first state in Nigeria to successfully host a reigning European Champion; Spanish La Liga powerhouse, Atletico Madrid, in a friendly football match against our Super Eagles in Uyo. Akwa Ibom State is now on the world map of football. All Akwa Ibomites should be proud of this achievement.
Other notable feats include Akwa United winning the Nigeria FA Cup twice in the three years under my watch; Ibom Angels emerging runners up in the 2017 Nigeria Female FA Cup (The first time a female team from the state has ever qualified for the finals of a major national competition); Team Akwa Ibom finishing 2nd on the medal table at the 2017 National Sports Festival; Akwa Ibom receiving three Excellence Awards on Sports Development from the Federal Government; Renovation/reconstruction of Uyo, Ikot Ekpene, and Eket Sports Stadia in the State; and the promotion and sponsorship of 4 state football teams namely Akwa United, Akwa Starlet, Ibom Angels and Ibom Youth FC.
In partnership with, FEYReP, the state has recorded huge achievements such as caring for over Eight Hundred (800) Orphans and less-privileged children in four Government Homes at Uyo and the one at Ikot Ekpene, some of whom are presently in higher institutions; provision of N200,000.00 grant each for about 500 women organizations across the 31 LGAs to enable them leverage on the public-partnership Initiative of the State Government.
Others include the provision of grants and material aids to about 600 widows and 350 mothers with multiple births across the 31 LGAs to boost their businesses and alleviate poverty; in collaboration with FEYReP; the implementation of the Child Rights Law and prosecution of Child's Rights offenders in collaboration with the Akwa Ibom State Judiciary and Ministry of Justice, Security services, Police etc. Over 200 cases have been recorded since 29th May 2015 and 120 have received judgment; Donation of over two hundred (200) wheel Chairs and one hundred (100) Special Writing Desks for physically challenged persons in tertiary institutions and secondary schools; training of 20 visually impaired persons in different skills at the Nigerian Farm Craft Centre, Lagos and subsequent empowerment for them to start up their businesses in the trade learnt; and sponsorship of 155 widows to Jerusalem (Pilgrimage) led by Her Excellency, the Wife of the Executive Governor; donation of material aids to over 2,000 members of Market Women Frontline; and the empowerment of widows through the Widows Empowerment Scheme and Financial Empowerment to widows registered with the Ministry.
The State Government, in the last three years, has raised its stature to national reckoning. The 30th Anniversary last year, with the Colour me Orange campaign was a national sensation, which had driven tourists to the State. The State continues to be the destination of choice for most events. Hospitality industry is growing and keeping pace with the influx of people into the State.

Increased Supports for Single Adults Living with Low Incomes
Hungercount.FoodbanksCanada.ca – HungerCount 2018/Recommendation 3
June 4, 2019. Food Banks Canada
Recommendation 3:
Increased Supports for Single Adults Living with Low Incomes
One of the most striking trends in the food bank network is the growth of single unattached individuals walking through our doors across the country and asking for help. The percent of single people using food banks has doubled since 2001, having grown from 30% of households to 45% in 2018.
Looking at the staggering economic statistics for this group, it doesn't take long to figure out why the food bank network has seen this jump. Depending on which measure one looks at, between 9% and 13% of Canadians can be defined as having low incomes. Using the Market Basket Measure (which the government has declared will become the new official poverty measure), the figure is just over 1 in 10. If we look only at unattached (i.e. single) working-age people, the figure jumps to 33%: one in every three single adults lives in poverty.vii
This group alone represents a low income population of 1.3 million people. This group lives in deep poverty, with average incomes that are 50% below the poverty line. This means these individuals are often struggling to survive on about $10,000 per year.
Given these statistics, it is hardly surprising that close to one in five single adults experience food insecurity and that so many need help from a food bank to make ends meet.viii
This is a population that, from a government program perspective, has few places to turn and seems to have been largely forgotten by federal and provincial governments. For decades, governments have focused policies on specific subsets of the populations such as families and seniors, yet have routinely overlooked working-age single adults as a group that requires targeted action.
A large number are receiving social assistance but can't climb out of poverty due to the grossly inadequate supports and strict conditions that come with these programs. Overall, government supports for this group of vulnerable people have declined by half since the mid 1990s.ix
The federal government has recently increased their supports for low income Canadians who are working with the expansion of the Canada Workers Benefit. Food Banks Canada had called on the government to enact these changes and we applaud this step in the right direction – but more help is required for this segment of the population that has been ignored for far too long.
We recommend that the federal government implement the following steps to better support low-income single adults:
- To create a new program to support ill and unemployed Canadians whose temporary Employment Insurance (EI) or disability benefits are about to run out. This new program would close a major gap in our social safety net that leaves many people with no choice but to enter a cycle of poverty perpetuated by our broken social assistance systems across the country.
- To make single, low-income adults a priority consideration in all future poverty reduction policy measures to ensure that this vulnerable population is no longer left behind.
- To implement our Basic Income recommendation (see Basic Income in this report) to address the high levels of poverty amongst singles with no attachment to the labour force.
Recommendation 1: Federal Leadership Towards a Basic Income for All Canadians
Recommendation 2: Support the Creation of Standardized, Affordable Early Learning and Childcare Across the Country
Recommendation 3: Increased Supports for Single Adults Living with Low Incomes
Recommendation 4: Reduce Northern Food Insecurity

Over the break I had the pleasure of working up at Considine Studios up in Lansdale PA. Considine is the leader in bronze casting. I assisted on these figures, they were constructing for LaSalle University near Philly. The figures are St Francis and Jane de Orleans, along with three children. working on these was a great, dirty and tiring time.

There is already 4 "Ipod Silhouette" tutorials, next time, try more creativity perhaps. It's an ok tutorial nonetheless..
Wow, magnificent tutorial.
This tutorial was resubmitted as it was updated to be much better, including an improved "adding a brush" part.
Magnificent tutorial! I loved it! I can't wait for your water drops tutorial, looking awesome!
Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server
can't rate it. sorry.
Again, try making your tutorials more complete, the ending is nothing compared to the final steps, you add your own color, string.. it would be magnificent if you could show the user with screenshots step by step how to do that as well. matadorqk
You seem to get tired, or simply not fully finish the final steps with the use of screenshots, the more you show the user, the better off they are in learning how to use photoshop, and the better rating you'll get here.
You might have over-used the stock images, try using more photoshop features next time, an ok result.
Wasn't bad, the final steps though, didn't do much of a change. Personally, I would of removed the large blood splatter and copied the small ones, but that's just my preference, overall, a decent tutorial.
Personally, I found it interesting, but I was expecting more to draw it from scratch. Not a bad tutorial.

[HISTORY: Adopted by the Township Committee of the Township of Cinnaminson 5-19-2004 by Ord. No. 2004-11 (Sec. 2.16 of the 1995 Code). Amendments noted where applicable.]
The public officer charged with the responsibility for identifying abandoned properties and maintaining the list of abandoned properties as set forth in N.J.S.A. 55:19-55 shall be that officer designated by the Township pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.5 with respect to buildings in the municipality which are unfit for human habitation, occupancy, or use, to wit: the Township Zoning/Code Enforcement Officer.
The public officer shall identify all properties within the municipality which are abandoned as defined in N.J.S.A. 55:19-54, which is any property deemed abandoned pursuant to N.J.S.A. 55:19-78 et seq.
Each item of abandoned property shall be identified by tax block and lot number, the name of the owner of record (if known), and the street address of the lot.
Upon identification of abandoned property, the public officer shall create and maintain a list of such property to be called the "abandoned property list." Properties may be added to the list at any time or deleted from the list at any time the public officer finds that the property no longer meets the definition of an abandoned property. An interested party may request that a property be included on the abandoned property list following the procedure set forth in N.J.S.A. 55:19-105.
An abandoned property shall not be included on the abandoned property list if rehabilitation is being performed in a timely manner, as evidenced by building permits issued and diligent pursuit of the rehabilitation work authorized by those permits. A property on which an entity other than the municipality has purchased or taken assignment from the municipality of a tax sale certificate, which has been place on the abandoned property list, may be removed from the list in accordance with the provisions of N.J.S.A. 55:19-103.
The public officer, within 10 days of the establishment of the abandoned property list, or any additions thereto, shall send a notice, by certified mail, return receipt requested, and by regular mail, to the owner of record of every property included on the list and shall cause the list to be published in the official newspaper of the municipality, which publication shall constitute public notice. The published and mailed notices shall identify the property determined to be abandoned setting forth the owner of record (if known), the tax lot and block number, and street address. The public officer, in consultation with the Tax Collector, shall also send out a notice by regular mail to any mortgagee, servicing organization, or property tax processing organization that receives a duplicate copy of the tax bill pursuant to Subsection d of N.J.S.A. 54:4-64. When the owner of record is not known for a particular property and cannot be ascertained by the exercise of reasonable diligence by the Tax Collector, notice shall not be mailed but instead shall be posted on the property in the manner provided in N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.7. The mailed notice shall indicated the factual basis for the public officer's finding that the property is abandoned property as that term is defined in N.J.S.A. 55:19-54 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, specifying the information relied upon in making such finding. In all cases a copy of the mailed or posted notice shall also be filed by the public officer in the office of the Burlington County Clerk. This filing shall have the same force and effect as a notice of lis pendens under N.J.S.A. 2A:15-6.
The public officer shall seek reimbursement for the postage costs and search fees associated with providing notice in accordance with Subsection A of this section from the Authority (as defined in N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.4) or its subsidiaries in accordance with procedures and rules promulgated by the Department of Community Affairs.

Tanzania Visitors Guide
Tanzania Visitors Guide
Our Tanzania visitors guide makes sure you know all the most important basics before you visit. From the boundless Serengeti to the peaks of Kilimanjaro, the coral reefs of the coast or the spices of Zanzibar, Tanzania is one of Africa's most exciting, diverse and unique destinations.
However, as a developing nation, there will likely be differences from home for visitors arriving internationally. A little patience and a little preparation will help you have a safe, successful and memorable trip in Tanzania.
Money electricity health and safety language
getting around weather documents documents
- the official currency is the Tanzanian shilling (Tsh), which at the time of writing (November 2018) was worth 2300Tsh. ATM's are located throughout the city, and Visa and MasterCard are widely accepted.
Daily costs will vary depending on your tastes and your itinerary. You can eat with locals for $5 or less a meal and take a ride on a bajaji for around $2, or you can fly across to Zanzibar and spend $150 and eat at a great restaurant for $50 or more. Spending a little extra and opting for a hotel-arranged taxi and staying in a quieter part of the city can definitely increase your level of comfort in one of the fastest-growing cities in the world.
– you'll need either a British style 3 rectangular pin plug, or a 3 round (large) pin South African style plug-in Tanzania. Rooms at Southern Sun Dar es Salaam feature plug sockets for both styles as well as the two (round) pin Euro plug. Electricity is 230v with a 50hz frequency
Health & Safety
– as with any travel, but especially to developing nations, comprehensive travel insurance is strongly recommended. Dar es Salaam has a number of good pharmacies and the Aga Khan Hospital, but outside the main cities, quality emergency medical care can be a very expensive helicopter flight away.
Guests travelling out of the city, especially those travelling into more isolated game parks, should ensure they find out more about malaria risk, prevalent diseases and options in case of a medical emergency.
Always check with the relevant foreign office for up to date travel risks, especially if you are travelling out of Dar es Salaam.
– English and some basic Swahili will get you far in Tanzania. While you probably won't need to use any Swahili, it is often appreciated and might help warm you to locals.
Basic phrases in Swahili
Getting Around
– depending on how far point B is from your point A, Tanzania has a number of different getting-around options.
Tanzania Weather
June to September – With drier weather that is also slightly cooler, this is Tanzania's high season for tourists. Safari visitors especially benefit from easier game spotting with animals more likely to be seen at waterholes.
October to February – some rain to be expected from early November, and the weather will heat up for the months of December to February. The dry weather makes it one of the preferred periods for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.
March to May – the wettest season of the year means green vistas and beautifully lush landscapes, but also navigating on mud roads by car sometimes impossible. April sees the start of the famous Serengeti wildebeest migration, which carries on through to August in different areas of the country.
Travel Documents
– in virtually all cases you will need to pay for a visa to enter the country. The cost (November 2018) was $50 USD for most nationalities and is valid for three months. It is important to make sure your passport is valid for at least 6 months, and while it is possible to get a visa at many points of entry, it is strongly recommended you apply and obtain a visa in advance.
You can find out more information about visas and business visas here: http://www.immigration.go.tz/index.php/en/services/visa-information
Yellow fever vaccination certificates are not required from most destinations, but you may be asked to provide your yellow fever vaccination certificate to be allowed entry. As such, it is recommended you have an up to date vaccination certificate before you travel, wherever you are travelling from.

Logologists who are computer programmers can exploit the computer's power to assist them in wordplay activities. Logologists who are not computer experts can share in that power by using commercially available, inexpensive, user-friendly spreadsheet programs designed for personal computers (PCs). Such programs, initially developed for manipulation numbers (e.g., financial modelling), have evolved the capability to manipulate non-numeric data--strings of characters other than integers exclusively--according to string-specific formulas.

Cal United Strikers v Michigan Stars FC Game Recap
Cal United Strikers overcome physical NISA newcomers Michigan Stars FC to grab a 1-0 victory in its spring season opener
February 29, 2020
By Dan Minkoff
For Cal United Strikers FC
IRVINE, California – Cal United Strikers coach Don Ebert had no idea what to expect from league newcomers Michigan Stars FC in his side's home opener of the National Independent Soccer Association spring season. As the defending 2019 West Coast NISA champion, Ebert knows they will have a target on their back.
Ebert and the rest of Cal United quickly found out. Michigan came out determined to play physical and racked up seven fouls and two yellow cards in a choppy, scoreless first half. Cal United stuck to its game plan, produced better movement off the ball in the second half, and grabbed a deserved goal to grind out a 1-0 victory in front of an impressive crowd of 2,258 at Orange County Great Park Championship Stadium.
The game also marked the professional debut of 15-year-old Dana Point, California local Shane Kaemerle. Kaemerle, who previously played for Strikers FC Irvine's U.S. Soccer Development Academy, entered the game in the 63rd minute as a substitute for Kevin Jeon, who scored the game's only goal four minutes earlier. Ebert wanted to get Kaemerle in the game as soon as he could.
"I said to him that I didn't want him to wait," Ebert explained after the game. "With all the nerves, I said, 'I'm going to put you right in, first game, and the sooner you get that over, that's when you can start taking the next steps.' He is a very talented player who is nervous beyond nerves and you can see what he brings. He's gonna be great."
Kaemerle got his "welcome to the pros" moment in the 82nd minute when Stars defender Cameron Jon Schneider knocked him to the ground with a hard foul from behind. Kaemerle got right up and Schneider picked up Michigan's third yellow card.
"I was expecting some contact on that one, but not that hard," Kaemerle said. "[Schneider] came up to me after the game and said he had to welcome me to the league."
Kaemerle said he was nervous before the game, but felt good once he stepped on the field. He started out on the left wing and at times occupied the center forward position, but didn't really get into the flow until late. At one point, around the 88th minute, he had the ball deep in the corner to the right of Michigan's goal. Kaemerle deftly dribbled out of trouble and found teammate Gustavo Villalobos so that Cal United could recycle the ball and retain possession.
"It was much different, much quicker, much more physical than a normal academy game," Kaemerle said. "It was definitely a step up."
The Stars are new to NISA and previously played in the National Premier Soccer League. This is their first season as a professional club and gave Cal United all it could handle. Cal United found it difficult to break down a defense that sometimes had six players across the back line. In the 59th minute, however, after a nice spell of possession for Cal United, defender Michael Bryant picked up the ball in the middle of the field and hammered a 30-yard shot at the Stars goal. Goalkeeper Arshia Aghababazadeh could only parry the ball away and Jeon was first to react and poked in the rebound.
"We knew they were going to be a physical, defensive-minded team, said defender and Cal United team captain Chris Klute. "We knew that was going to be their thing. They're new and for most teams in a new league, they sit back to see how it plays out."
Despite enjoying the majority of possession, Cal United didn't muster many goal-scoring chances in the first half. Christian Thierjung, who was the NISA leading goal scorer in the fall season, hit the crossbar and Cal United only had two shots on goal before halftime. Michigan defender Joseph Aidoo almost scored with a header off a corner kick, but his shot was cleared off the line by Xavier Ikaika Fuerte and the teams went into the locker rooms tied, 0-0.
Thierjung put the ball in the net in the 54th minute, but was flagged offside. After that, Michigan sat deeper and deeper while Cal United dominated possession and held off the Stars' few counterattacks.
"I thought we played really well," Ebert said. "That was a very good performance from the opening whistle to the final whistle. We didn't have a lot of highs and lows. You're playing a very physical team, so it ain't gonna be pretty when they're out there to bunker in and put 10 guys behind the ball. It's not easy. I thought we did very well."
Cal United Strikers' next game will be at 5 p.m. on Sunday, March 8 vs. 1904 FC at Lincoln High School in San Diego. Cal United's next home game will be at 7 p.m. on Saturday, March 14 vs 1904 FC. Click here for tickets.

Will not go back. Pro shop has nothing, no starters on the course took well over 5 hours. Saw a six-some and a five-some while waiting forever. Greens did roll well if you could find a line that wasn't full of ball marks.
Should have stayed lost. Very bad customer service
in the golf shop. I could get better service at post office or DMV for free. did I mention the course sucks.
Oct 18thI played for a discounted rate on a weekday so this is based off that rate:This course plays similar to Tierra Rejada but is slightly shorter and narrower. Overall I would rather play here for a good price. It is challenging, it is recommended you play from the whites if you are a 10Hcp or over. Will make a massive diff. The silver tees are for 9 and under HDCP. The Golds are for scratch golfer, and the blacks (tips) are reserved for Fred Couples and I don't think he plays from there anymore.I can imagine this course is unplayable in the high winds. However today, No wind, no people, no problems. Today was a good day! Pay for the 2$ GPS, worth it!The sister course "Shadow" is more of the players course. Sky is easier of the two but they are both hard. Thumbs up for the price.
Wow - what a tough course. I had a bad round but really enjoyed myself. Greens are fast and be sure to stay straight rather than long...

These fellowships bring in a total of £665,000 to the Department of Mathematical Sciences.
Shane Cooper, Sergey Dolgov and Joe Karmazyn will all be arriving in Bath over the next few months and will further enhance the department's excellent research portfolio.
Ivan Graham, Head of Department, said: "This is a fantastic achievement for the department and really showcases the environment that is on offer to up and coming researchers. We are very excited about welcoming Joe, Sergey and Shane to the University."
Sergey Dolgov - New efficient algorithms for manipulating data and solving equations
Sergey, currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Max-Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems, will undertake work on contemporary mathematical models featuring many extra dimensions.
Anything more than three spatial coordinates makes numerical simulation tremendously difficult. However, often the variables have different importance and influence only from their neighbours. This is revealed and exploited by the separation of variables, a versatile data compression formalism that breaks down a high-dimensional model to a moderate set of one-dimensional problems.
Sergey is developing new efficient algorithms for manipulating data and solving equations directly in such compressed representations. This has applications across many areas of science and engineering and Sergey plans to work with colleagues in the Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Biology & Biochemistry to exploit his models.
Sergey said: "I am looking forward to starting the new level of my work in an inspiring atmosphere at Bath. Remembering how many people wished to cooperate with me after just the few days I spent at the University, I am sure that my project will be in the right place."
Shane Cooper - Mathematical analysis of metamaterials and their applications
Shane is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at Laboratoire de Mécanique et Génie Civil in Montpelier.
The unusual properties of metamaterials, such as the ability to break the diffraction limit, arise from complex interactions across multiple spatial and temporal scales.
While the impressive catalogue of performances realised by metamaterials continues to grow, a deep mathematical understanding of the underpinning phenomena is still lacking.
Shane Cooper's project aims to address this and determine the simplest mathematical description for such phenomena by analytically 'distilling' the essential multiscale information from the underlying governing equations.
Shane said: "I am very happy to be returning to Bath, where I completed my PhD. The department's outstanding research activity and interdisciplinary engagements provide an ideal environment to undertake this project. In addition, I would like to thank the Research and Innovation Services at the University. I found their support and expert advice during the application process invaluable."
Joseph Karmazyn - Interactions between moduli spaces, noncommutative algebra and deformation theory
Joseph is currently a PhD student at the University of Edinburgh.
Deformation theory is used to analyse a range of different situations within algebraic geometry, with applications in areas such as the Minimal Model Program and the calculation of numerical invariants.
Joe's research seeks to translate aspects of deformation theory from algebraic geometry into noncommutative algebra and approach them with different techniques available there. The results and insight gained can then be translated back into geometry by using moduli space techniques to construct geometric spaces parametrising data attached to the noncommutative algebras.
Joe said: "I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to come to the University of Bath, and I look forward to joining the department in the summer. I would also like to thank the members of the department who I have spoken to throughout my PhD and who offered me advice with the application process."

Do you need college advice? This article will be a great start! College is where you go to find out what you would like to do with your life. You're transition to college life can be much easier if you understand what to expect.
If you're struggling to find smart methods of studying, then determine if your school is offering a study class. College is different from high school. A study skills class can set you on the path to success in your classes.
Get used to your schedule and know where to find your classrooms before the first class. Determine the amount of time you need to travel from class to class, and plan accordingly. Include other resources, like student aid and the cafeteria, on your map for ease of use.
Before you embark on a college search, determine the type of career you desire. You want to be sure that any college you choose offers the degree you need to get your desired job. Discuss this with your admissions counselor to make sure that the college offers the courses that you need.
The environment you study in is extremely important. Your dorm is not typically a good place to study. Choose a place with no distractions, instead. A library is always good. If you can't always go to the library, then consider buying some headphones that block out noise.
It is important to get plenty of sleep. When you are in college, it is easy to pull all-nighters for parties and classes and homework, but you need your rest. If you aren't sleeping enough, you'll be irritable and forget what you've learned; not the way to enjoy college!
Make yourself acquainted with all your class professors when the term begins. Be sure you know where they have their offices and understand how to get in touch with them easily. It is important that you build a good repertoire with them so that if you need to turn a paper in late or have another issue they are more understanding.
If you are attending a college in another state, or if you are going to live in the dorms, think twice before bring your car. In bigger cities, you may struggle to find free parking spaces. The cost of your car and a parking spot can be too high for a student.
The tips above have hopefully helped you think about college life. Use that information to make the most out of your college experience. Do not jump in until you know what is ahead of you!

"Enjoy the process", is that easy?
Loosing weight is a process. It doesn't happen overnight, as we all know, it takes time.
Me personally, I do not like to wait. I want it to happen NOW!! Unfortunately, thats not possible.
Eversince I started, I look in the mirror everyday to see if there is a difference in my body, sometimes a few times a day…
It is something that I do not think I should be doing. We all know that loosing weight doesn't happen overnight. What I've noticed is – when you start loosing weight, you first look worse and then you look better.
You go through a stage where you feel thinner but you look worse, flabby… Your tummy is not as tight as it used to be (Tight fat), it looks flabby. I dont know if it is just me??
But even if it is just me, I don't like it. It feels like I look worse than I looked before, and THIS is the time where I would usually give up BUT, I won't. I actually think it is the beginning of me starting to look a lot better, soon.
I've come this far, to give up at any point of the process will be the dumbest decision ever.
Usually, just as a person is about to give up, in anything in life, thats the time where you need to be stronger than ever. Change is around the corner.
I didn't get this far to give up now!!
It takes time, your body goes through funny changes, but I am 100% sure it will be worth it in the end.
How can something that you dream about, think about all the time NOT be worth fighting for??
Quiting is not an option, ever!!
Hard times is most certainly apart of the process, but what is that saying? "If it was easy, everyone would have it" – I love that so much, it is so true.
I think it is a process that I must try to enjoy, everyday is a step closer to where I want to be, It doesn't help I get upset or negative, atleast I am fitter and stronger than yesterday. Not always easy thinking about it in such positive way, but I really want to try.

Pulsara was featured last week in a news article on Australian news site, The Courier after Ballarat Base Hospital, Pulsara's second international hospital client, began a pilot of the platform. Ballarat will leverage Pulsara to receive real-time information about a patient's condition from local paramedics to get the entire emergency department, cardiac, neurology and other specialists and departments on the same page.
According to the article, Ambulance Victoria clinical manager Grant Hocking said "Time is of the essence for cardiac and stroke patients. This app puts everyone on the same page, synchronizing our communication not just to the emergency department but specialists within the hospital as well."
Ballarat Hospital project coordinator Debbie Pearce also commented that Pulsara will help in ensuring better treatment time outcomes by providing clear, efficient communication.
"At the moment that communicating is done over the phone and often over multiple calls," said Pearce. "Streamlining communication and transfer information with specialist teams while still in the ambulance will hopefully mean a specialist team is ready prior to arrival."
Ballarat treats an average of twelve urgent heart attack and twenty confirmed strokes each month, with dozens of additional suspected cases.
Brandon Means, one of Pulsara's Clinical Specialists, was interviewed for the piece. "[Pulsara] is now found [across] the United States, but Victoria is the first state outside the US to trial it," said Means.
The article comes on the heels of the Pulsara team's trip to Australia to train Ballarat staff to use Pulsara ahead of their 12-month pilot program.
"Staff here are keen and interested in making sure they are able to deliver treatment as quickly as possible," said Florey Institute research fellow Kathleen Bagot.

Are Arrest Records On Public Records?
An arrest record is a piece of recorded documentation that reveals an individual's suspected criminal activity.
An arrest record may reveal information indicating that a person has been questioned, apprehended, taken into custody or detention, held for investigation, arrested, charged with, indicted, or tried for any offense.
Arrest records will show if the suspected act was
- Traffic related
- Violent
- Theft or robbery
- Drug and/or alcohol related
- Business Related
What Can Be Found On An Arrest Record?
- Biographical Information: Suspect's current age, and age at the time of the arrest
- Criminal Classification: Whether or not the suspected crime was a misdemeanor or a felony
- Monetary Restitution: Fines associated with the arrest
- Pending Litigation: Additional criminal convictions, pending hearings, and supplementary arrests
In The United States, Individuals Granted Power Of Arrest Include:
- Federal Police:
This includes all officers who work for the Department of Justice. The FBI, DEA, and ATF are just a few branches under the umbrella of the DOJ. However, due to restrictions in the U.S. Constitution, federal officers may not exercise general policing powers. Their jurisdiction is restricted to foreign and interstate affairs.
- State Police:
Most state governments have their own enforcement divisions with a separate investigation unit operating out of the Attorney General's office.
- County Police:
The role and extent of power a county police department has varies a great deal from county to county.
Arrest records are usually accessible through the state or federal court system (depending on whether the individual is accused of a federal or state crime).
More specifically, an arrest record indicates when the individual was arrested, and the crime he or she was accused of.
Although an arrest is not an indication of guilt, arrest records can still be used to learn about the type of accused offense.
Difference Between Arrest Records vs. Criminal Conviction Records
It is important to know that an arrest is different than a conviction.
There is some controversy surrounding the usage of arrest records due to the fact that an individual may have been arrested, but found completely innocent of a crime.
An arrest does not necessarily mean that someone has committed a crime, just that they were suspected by a member of law enforcement.
A conviction is the only public record that can be upheld as proof of criminal activity.
When someone has been arrested, it means they have been physically apprehended by an individual who has legally been granted powers of arrest, and deprived of certain liberties.
In the U.S. a person can be arrested when there exists probable cause to believe that person has committed or been involved in a crime.
What Is The Freedom Of Information Act?
The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson began making federal government documents available to the public in 1966.
The passage of this act was an attempt to increase the level of transparency within the federal government.
After the FOIA was signed into law, several state governments followed suit, and passed their own Freedom of Information laws, securing public access to government records at the state level- including an individual's arrest records.
Electronic Freedom of Information Act
Public record transparency was strengthened again with the passing of The Electronic Freedom of Information Act in 1996.
This act stated that all government agencies are required by statute to make certain types of records, created by the agency on or after November 1, 1996, available electronically.
Agencies must also provide electronic reading rooms for citizens to use in order to increase public accessibility to records.
The digitization of public records makes searching for an arrest record even easier. These two pieces of legislation allow citizens to access court records, including a person's arrest history.
Since the FOIA as well as similar legislation from state governments were passed, arrest records have been available to the public.
Easy Access For Anyone
Although technically accessible, prior to the Electronic Freedom of Information Act in 1996, in order to view arrest records a person would have had to contact their local law enforcement agency, file a formal request for specific documents, and wait.
Fortunately, the Internet has streamlined this process making the retrieval of public documents fast, efficient, and easy. Now anyone can view a complete list of arrest records for a particular county.
Arrest Records Overseas
In certain countries, arrest records are restricted to crimes that resulted in convictions.
In other countries, an arrest record also contains arrests, charges dismissed, charges pending, and even charges of criminal activity where the person has been found innocent in a court of law.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often are people arrested in the United States?
Every 25 seconds (according to the Washington Post). More people are arrested for marijuana use than all violent crimes combined.
What is the "Arrest Capital of the U.S."?
Gretna (Louisiana) was named the Arrest Capital of America by Fusion TV in 2016. In 2013, almost one in every three adults were arrested.
Are NFL Players Arrested More Than Regular Citizens?
No. Although an NFL player is arrested once a week, that's still less than the rest of the population.
How Many Police Officers Are Arrested Each Year?
More police officers are arrested daily than NFL players. According to a Washington Post study, 1,100 police officers are arrested every year.
You don't need any indictment in order to arrest someone; probable cause is sufficient to arrest civilians, so it must be enough to arrest police.
