Curry OnECOOP 2019
Curry On is a conference focused on the intersection of emerging languages and emerging challenges in industry (e.g. big data or security), as well as new ideas and paradigms in software development.
Curry On also seeks to act as a conduit for ferrying understanding and ideas back and forth between industry and academic programming languages, software engineering, and systems research communities (amongst others).
Curry On is a rare event where academic minds responsible for concepts and tools now invaluable to everyday software development – like functional programming, or generics in Java – collide with the movers and shakers in industry that are building next-generation systems and developing software engineering practices central to our entire industry.
The 2019 edition is co-located with ECOOP in London. It will be held on Monday 15.7. and Tuesday 16.7. with three parallel tracks, four exciting keynotes and invited talks.

Call for Presentations
Curry On has two central goals.
- Bringing industry and academia together to have an open conversation.
- Exploring the intersection of programming or programming languages with emerging challenges in industry, such as security, big data, or machine learning.
Talks can cover topics as varied as an academic idea applied to a surprising problem domain in a real-world system, to something racy like "programming language academia is irrelevant and here's why".
We give no firm guidelines on topics (go wild!), however we particularly seek talks that can provoke thought and discussion, or even (more idealistically) can elicit or encourage new ideas or change.
Areas of particular interest to the conference include:
- distributed systems/big data
- machine learning
- security
- concurrency
- types
- functional or logic programming
- databases
- compilers and virtual machines
- PL approaches to front-end development
- probabilistic programming
- next generation tooling
Each accepted talk will get a 40 minute talk slot. There are two different sorts of talk slots. Presenters have a choice between:
- a standard talk slot, or
- a chess-timer talk slot.
Chess-Timer Talks
(There will be a limited number of chess-timer talk slots.)
One of Curry On's prime goals is to bring industry and academia together to have an open conversation. But one speaker addressing hundreds of people is hardly a conversation. So, we're changing that.
We also call ourselves "a new and unusual non-profit conference focused on programming languages & emerging challenges in industry."
Chess-timer talks are our unusual solution to making tech conferences a more interactive, more fun, and better place for learning and discussions.
Chess-timer talks primarily seek to get more audience members participating in the presentation. Speakers who choose to give a chess-timer talk are allowed 20 minutes of solo speaking time, and 20 minutes of discussion time. A Curry On representative operates a chess-timer during the presentation, switching between solo + discussion time budgets. When an audience member interrupts the talk to ask a question, for example, we switch the timer to deduct from discussion time. This style of giving talks has been demoed in small (20-30 person) academic workshops to great success. In those workshops, it has incentivized speakers to strategically insert fodder for discussion points into their presentations so as to try and elicit audience members to ask questions.
Speakers with selected talks will have the opportunity to choose whether or not they would like to give a chess-timer talk. Curry On will feature a limited number of chess-timer sessions, meaning that a majority of talks will still be standard conference talks.
Admission and Travel
Speakers will receive free admission to Curry On. We are striving to provide some form of travel grant to assist with the costs of attending. We'll post details here once a budget is finalized.

Why do millennials have so much trouble finding jobs?
Why do millennials have so much trouble finding jobs?
THE key to tackling youth unemployment may be a good dose of reality.
Years of parents and teachers telling children to "follow their dreams" as they can "be anything they want to be" has helped create a generation of young people who have made impractical career choices, emerging from education with high-level qualifications but a lack of skills that employers need.
More than one in 10 young Australians (12.5 per cent) is looking for work and unable to find it, with unemployment among 15 to 24-year-olds more than double that of the general workforce (5.6 per cent), the Australian Bureau of Statistics reveals.
But this figure does not necessarily equate to a lack of jobs.
"Skills mismatch" is a global issue affecting not only individuals but economies, says research professor Seamus McGuinness of The Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) in Ireland.
Speaking at the WorldSkills Conference in Abu Dhabi, he says even those youth who do have a job are often working outside their area of expertise.
More: Christmas rush extends to job ads
More: Apprentices get a six-figure start
"It is perfectly fine for young people to follow their dream, but it is also important that they make a realistic assessment of the labour market of their chosen profession in terms of factors such as employment rates (and) salaries before undertaking their studies," McGuinness says.
He says about one in four workers in developed countries believe they are over-educated for their role, and the same again believe they are under-skilled.
"For example, an over-educated worker would be a worker who has a degree but believes their job only requires a high school diploma," he says.
"An under-educated worker is someone who has a high school diploma but says 'actually my job really needs a degree'.
"An over-skilled (worker) is someone who says I have too many skills and abilities over and above what this job requires, and an under-skilled worker is someone who says 'I don't have the skills and abilities to do that job'.
"Around 40 per cent of (university) graduates are working in areas outside their field of study."
The solution to skills mismatch may be in technical and vocational education and training (TVET).
WorldSkills Australia chair Brian Wexham says many people who leave or graduate from university end up at TAFE anyway.
"They can't get a job so they then have to look for an appropriate skill or trade that can perhaps complement their degree in order for them to be more employable," he says.
Wexham says skills mismatch is worse for this generation because of the proliferation of universities throughout the past 20 years.
"We turned technical colleges into universities," he says.
"It is so accessible now for anybody to be able to go to university (so) people don't necessarily think hard enough about doing it."
Airconditioning and refrigeration mechanic Nathan McHugh has definitely seen a shortage of people with his skills.
The Queenslander, who represented Australia in his trade at WorldSkills Abu Dhabi 2017, attributes the lack of young people in airconditioning and refrigeration largely to the belief promoted by schools that a university education is the only indicator of success.
"In Australia, we have a lot of trouble just getting the apprentices to start ... so definitely (there is) a skill shortage," he says.
"On the other side, there are countries that have a lot of manpower but lack the qualifications because they don't have the training.
"I believe Australia is in a good position, we just need to promote trades and skills.
"Our training level is very high so that will repair the skills shortage but that's obviously not going to happen overnight.
"It's something we have to work on, (helping) people to get the understanding about what trades and skills are all about."
McHugh won a Medallion of Excellence at the international WorldSkills competition.
Australia's next national competition will be held in Sydney in June, 2018.

Whether you've ever purchased a health insurance policy or not, you can get one that is just right for you. In fact, you can probably find the cheapest health insurance if that's what you've set out to do.
All you need is a computer to find Florida health insurance quotes online. First, you'll want to write down what you expect out of a plan. Perhaps you need new glasses each year but don't really care about going to the optometrist. You want to make sure you search for the right type of insurance too. These are the types of things you want to write down so that you can remember them during your search.
Start your search online
Once you start searching, you're looking for what coverage certain plans have, as well as the rates they're available at. If you don't have a lot of money to spend, concentrate on purchasing the cheapest health insurance and you may get lucky.
In some cases, people that don't make enough money to afford insurance can get a subsidy from the government to help pay for it, so you might also want to look into how much money that entails. This can give you a better idea of what your policy should cost.
While some people prefer to buy their insurance online or over the phone, you can also do it in person. Ask your neighbors, friends, and family if they know someone or some place that sells health insurance and go ahead and visit them at their office. They can answer all your lingering questions and tell you what policies they'll be able to provide for you. If you don't like any of their options, there's a good chance they have friends and colleagues that can sell you different plans until you find something that you can afford. They may also be able to give you phone numbers for agencies you can call that'll be able to help you further, or agents that'll do house calls to make things easier on you.
Buying any type of insurance is no fun but obtaining health insurance in FL can be even more stressful, especially if you aren't used to the process. The first thing to do is write down your parameters and then begin searching for the cheapest health insurance in Florida. After that, you've done most of the work and you just have to find something you like. Next, find an agent and purchase the policy you picked out.

Do My Windows Need To Be Made Of Safety Glass?
In Perth, we often find that there are homes and businesses that have windows that are not comprised of safety glass. At Jim's Glass, we believe that the incredible capabilities of safety glass situate the material as a premier option for security and safety for both homes and businesses. If you are unsure why this product is so important, we are here to tell you just how vital safety glass can be.
Created with a longer process that involves laminating the glass and increasing its strength, safety glass is designed to be tougher than traditional variants. Without comprising the look of traditional glass, this solution should be considered for your next Perth window replacement. If you don't think you need a window replacement, you should consider the fantastic attributes of safety glass today.
Prevent shattering
In the unfortunate event of a break, the laminate will hold the broken fragments of the glass together. This not only makes it easier to remove but if necessary, it is easier for the glass specialists at Jim's Glass to remove the broken piece with ease. This ensures the safety of the surrounding areas by avoiding sharp fragments littering the area. This also makes it difficult to compromise the glass from the outside, adding more security to the property.
If there is a possibility of human interaction around the surrounding area, such as residential windows, safety glass for a window replacement is essential.
Heat treated
Heat treating is a process that safety glass is subject to that highlights the strength of the materials. Making it stronger, and more cohesive means that in the event of a break that DOES shatter the window into pieces, there will be larger clumps rather than the small, difficult to clean-up fragments. This is another safety precaution that can reduce the risk of injury in the event of a window break.
Similarly, stronger glass adds another layer of security to your Perth property. If you are undertaking window replacement, adding safety glass is a great way to ensure that any unlikely intruders will have a difficult time smashing the windows.
Australian Standards
Often, we see Perth homes and businesses who have windows that do not adhere to Australian standards. As Australian Glass and Window Association AGWA accredited installers, we make sure that any window replacement we undertake adheres to safety and security standards. Some of the older Perth properties have old glass that doesn't adhere to the correct Australian standards and can pose a safety or security risk. Therefore, a window replacement with safety glass should be the highest priority.
For peace of mind, and extra security and safety, safety glass is the perfect solution. If you think its time for an upgrade, or you have experienced a few cracks here of there, contact Jim's Glass for all of your Perth window replacement needs.

At Wiseton Road Webb Yates Engineers worked with Waind Gohil + Potter to remodel the existing ground floor extension and create an open plan kitchen/living space, as well as adding an additional first floor extension and new feature staircases within the existing house.
At ground floor level the joists were designed to be exposed and work compositely with the plywood floor above to meet both the structural and fire requirements. A new skylight was also incorporated above the kitchen space. Above the extension an additional first floor annex with a timber clad façade was also constructed.
Within the house a plywood staircase was designed with open treads and an open bannister to allow light from the skylight above into the space below.

Best Phone Systems for Different Office Types
No matter what type of business you have—small, medium, or enterprise—you need a phone system that will best serve your office and ensure the efficiency of your company. If you're not sure whether you should go with a standard landline or a major cloud-based provider, consider all of the options available to you, including a local VoIP provider like ComTech Cloud.
What Is VoIP?
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a type of phone system that operates over your company's data network instead of through a traditional landline. This type of system offers you more efficiency and productivity with fewer maintenance-related expenses. Rather than dealing with a mess of wires connected to your landline phone configuration, you can let your VoIP provider do the work for you.
Your business has plenty of reasons to switch to a VoIP phone system, including reduced costs and increased flexibility. When all of your office phones are connected through a data network, you won't have to worry about expensive long-distance calls or spotty reception if multiple people are making calls at once. With advantages like these, plus the lack of confusing wires, VoIP has made landline phones a thing of the past.
Features of VoIP
Some of the advanced features of a VoIP phone system include:
- Unified voicemail and fax messaging
- Intra-office calling
- Softphones or "App"
- Caller ID
- Call forwarding
- Auto attendant
- Voice to email
Benefits of VoIP
Some of the benefits of a VoIP phone system include:
- Cost savings
- Unlimited calling
- Built-in disaster recovery (BDR)
Choosing a Commercial Phone Provider for Your Business
When it comes to choosing a commercial VoIP provider for your company, there are a lot of options out there, from big names like Vonage and RingCentral to smaller local companies. Thankfully, at ComTech Cloud, we offer the services you need without the price tag that major providers demand. With a dependable, local VoIP provider, you can depend on us to be available whenever you have a question—we even stop by your office personally whenever you need maintenance.
Unlike big companies that send you equipment through the mail and require you to either hire someone to complete the installation or install it yourself, ComTech Cloud goes above any beyond by setting up your new commercial phone system for you. We also offer ongoing training and maintenance to ensure that your VoIP system is running as smoothly as possible.
VoIP Commercial Phone Installation in the DC Metro Area
If you're looking for the best phone system for your business—no matter what the size—VoIP is your answer. With features and benefits that you can't get from a landline, as well as white glove service that you can depend on whenever you need it, ComTech Cloud in Gaithersburg can give your business the technology it needs to succeed. Get in touch with us now to learn even more reasons why ComTech Cloud is the best VoIP service provider for your business.

After last year when I overslept, got stuck in traffic, struggled to get parking and barely made it to my corral for the start of the race, my wife and I stayed in Tempe near the start/finish line. This was a very good choice.
The weekend started out at the pre-race expo on Saturday for packet pick-up. Now, I'm not thrilled that they it this way since it's downtown Phoenix, where parking is a PITA, and is way too crowded. I was also disappointed that many of the bigger running related companies we not exhibiting. The highlight of the expo was meeting fellow tweep Allison (
After the expo, we checked into the hotel then headed out for dinner. Since I work in the area, I know a great little pizzeria that has a fantastic spaghetti and meatball calzone. Can you say carbo-loading?
After dinner it was back to the hotel and we called it an early night with the alarm clock set to 5 am. Things always don't work out as planned however. Because of a case of pre-race nerves and having a room that overlooked the freeway off-ramp, I didn't get a very good night's sleep.
Race day started out with a good breakfast, some ENERGYbits and a short walk to the starting line. Because everything went as planned, I had enough time to hit a port-potty, stretch, take some more bits and settle into a spot in my corral with 10 minutes to the gun. How I got corral 1 I'll never know but it was sure nice not to have to dodge much "traffic" at the start.
After the National Anthem and a brief ceremony honoring of the Granite Mountain Hotshots, the race was off and so was I. The plan was to average 7:30/mile but I went out a little too fast with my mile 1 and 2 splits at 7:10 and 7:21 respectively. I really didn't feel like I was pushing it but settled down for the next 3 miles and got into a good groove at 7:30/mile, making sure to hydrate at all the water stations.
Another part of the plan was fuel at miles 5 and 10 with GU and at the midway point with 30 more bits. For those of you who are wondering. I keep my bits in a Tic-Tac container and can easily swallow 5 or so at a time without any water.
For whatever reason my mile splits slowed down by 10 seconds or so after around mile 5. Part of this can be attributed to the fast start but some can also be attributed to the race being pretty much being entirely uphill through to mile 9.5.
My favorite part of the race is by far the portion through Papago Park from miles 8 through 12. Even though it is the most challenging part of the course, it is the most beautiful. The views through the park are what makes this race so worthwhile.
With the last 3.5 miles being downhill with a pretty quick decent, I feel as though I made my biggest mistake of the race in this portion. Not wanting to blow my legs out by going too fast on this segment, I may have actually hurt my time by holding myself back and braking. I also feel like I expended too much energy which didn't allow me to finish as strong as I could have.
As the miles clicked by and with my legs getting heavier, I headed into the home stretch. As I came over the Mill Avenue bridge with less than a mile to go, things got a little complicated as the mini-marathon runners/walker merged with the half. While I applaud anyone who gets out on the road, these fine folks were towards the back of he pack, spread out and in groups of 3-5 making it near impossible to run in a straight line.
Even though the course changed this year to finish at Tempe Beach Park, the last half mile was still lined with spectators cheering us on. With a final surge of adrenaline, I let it all hang out and crossed the finish line in 1:39:12 which is 11 minutes better than last year's time (my first half) and a new PR by a little over 3 minutes.
So with another race in the books I look forward to next year but not without thanking Competitor Group for putting on a great event, the spectators and bands who lined the course to cheer us on, my fellow runners and most importantly my lovely wife Christine for sharing the weekend with me and being there at the finish.

October 16, 2019 (KHARTOUM) - Talks for peace between the transitional government and the SPLM-N led by Abdel Aziz al-Hilu have been adjourned for 24 hours after accusation of fresh attacks by government forces in South Kordofan
In a statement released on Wednesday, the SPLM-N al-Hilu accused the Rapid Support Forces of ambushing civilians in the rebel-controlled area of Khor Warl in South Kordofan and arresting 13 people with their goods on 15 October.
The SPLM-N al-Hilu pointed to the involvement of local elements of Hawazmeh tribe in the clashes and requested Khartoum to renew its commitment to the unilateral cessation of hostilities.
The Movement would only begin negotiations after "the issuance of a solemn declaration of cessation of hostilities by the government, the release of the held detainees, their handover to the SPLM and the immediate withdrawal (of the government forces) from the areas it controlled."
In response to this demand, the head of Sudan's Sovereign Council Abdel Fattah al-Burhan ordered the armed forces to cease fire across the country, to allow the resumption of the talks.
"We declare a ceasefire throughout the Republic of Sudan, and on all fronts and names, as of the date of the decision," said al-Burhan in a statement released on Wednesday.
Transitional government and SPLM-N al-Hilu were due to start direct peace talks in Juba on Wednesday when the latter announced the suspension of the talks to protest the recent violence in South Kordofan.
For his part, the spokesman for the government negotiating delegation, Mohamed al-Hassan Eltaishi, said that "unfortunate events" prevented a meeting with the SPLM-N, led by Abdel Aziz al-Hilu, to discuss the agenda of peace negotiations.
" (...) A conflict erupted during the past two days between armed pastoralists and some traders in areas controlled by the SPLM in the state of South Kordofan," he further said.
Eltaishi expressed the government's condemnation of the incident and stressed that it would prosecute the perpetrators and hold them accountable under the law.
"What happened should be a motivation to move forward in the path of peace to end the fighting forever," he further stressed.
He reiterated that the Sudanese government is ready for discussion on all issues.
Later, the South Sudanese mediation team issued a statement announcing the adjournment of the meetings for 24 hours.
"The postponement was decided because of the protest by the SPLM against the Sudanese government which was accused of violating the ceasefire in an incident that took place in Khor Warl area in South Kordofan."
The mediation added it would hold further consultations with the parties to address the matter.
The Sudanese army and the SPLM-N have declared since three years ago a unilateral cessation of hostilities they used to renew regularly.

If there's one thing Ewan McGregor will never be accused of, it's coyness. Asked if he's ever been like his playboy character in the retro sex comedy Down With Love i.e. deceiving a woman in order to seduce her he says: "I'm a man. I've never drugged anyone for a f---. I can quite seriously say that. [But] I've confused them emotionally."
That, however, was a long time ago, so don't expect the married father of two to remember any details. Instead, he offers a few candid quips on Love (which co-stars Renée Zellweger and opens Friday) and his big-screen future (more nudity is likely, but Porno isn't).
On Down With Love, which pays homage to the '60s films of Doris Day and Rock Hudson: "There was no point in trying to make a modern day sex comedy. We have those already they're called romantic comedies, and usually not very good."
On the music video, shot two months ago, which accompanies Love's end credits: "I kept saying to them, 'I did Moulin Rouge and Renee did Chicago. Don't you think that we should do a song?' And I couldn't really believe that they were like, 'Well maybe. We'll see.' Are you nuts?!"
On Star Wars: Episode III, which he starts filming next month: "I can't know what I'm looking forward to exploring, because I don't know what the f--- it is about. I haven't seen a script."
On the Goth fans he's likely to attract now that he's wrapped Big Fish with director Tim Burton: "I remember Goths from my teenage years. Fantastic, miserable, black hair and really white they looked spectacular. That's one of my regrets: I never went to bed with a Goth."
On the possibility of filming Porno, Irvine Welsh's sequel to Trainspotting: "I read [the book] and I loved it, because I got to see what our characters were up to 10 years later. But it didn't move me quite the same way the Trainspotting novel had. It would be terrible to leave the audience remembering a poorer sequel."
On the odds we'll see him nude in another movie, á la The Pillow Book. (Sorry, he only strips down to a towel in Love.): "I wouldn't consider myself an actor if I had a list of things I won't do... It staggers me how big of a deal everyone makes of it, because sadly, in my every day life, I'm naked quite a lot of the time. And yet, the second we put that on screen, everybody s---s themselves. If it's just to see somebody's [genitals], I don't really think that happens as much anymore."

Client: Penticton Indian Band
Date: December 2014
Value: $950,000
This project was completed during the first phase of a multi-phase project for the water servicing of the PIB's new Skaha Hills Development. During the planning stages, it was determined that the development would require a reservoir sized for fire flow protection for the initial development, with an allowance for future growth potential.
The new Skaha Hills 520 Reservoir is a 1,864m3 cast-in-place concrete reservoir and separate valve chamber. The inlet and outlet piping in the reservoir were designed to encourage uniform flow across the reservoir, eliminating the need for additional mixing equipment. This piping configuration concept was confirmed with modeling software.
TRUE was involved in the planning, design, and construction of the Skaha Hills 520 Reservoir project. The design stage involved multiple population projections and analysis of the development type to ensure that the water reservoir would meet the PIB's needs for the Skaha Hills Development.
The project was completed on time and under budget.

Calamaro, Mason, and Ratcliffe (2009) investigated the association between technology use, caffeine intake, and sleep behaviors in adolescents. The authors noted that sleep duration has decreased markedly for adolescents over the past 40 years and that insufficient sleep in that age group has been linked to a variety of psychological and physical health problems, ranging from allergies and obesity to mood disorders. Use of technology may interfere with sleep simply by shortening time available for sleep. The brightness of screens and monitors may also decrease melatonin release thereby delaying sleep onset. The authors administered a questionnaire to 100 adolescents, aged 12 to 18 from schools in suburban Philadelphia. Measures assessed sleep patterns, caffeine intake, technology use (e.g., television, Internet, video games, texting), daytime behaviors, and demographic variables. Results showed that most of the participants used some form of technology in the evenings, averaging four different technology activities (multitasking) after 9:00 pm. Eighty-five percent reported consuming caffeine; 75% after school hours or in the evening. As hypothesized, shorter sleep duration was associated with greater technology use and multitasking. In addition, multitasking was positively related to caffeine consumption. Lack of sleep led to consequences for daytime functioning. Thirty-three percent of the participants reported falling asleep during school. Caffeine consumption was 76% higher among these participants. Evening technology multitasking was also significantly related to falling asleep in school. The authors cautioned that sleep deprivation may contribute to automobile accidents among this already at risk demographic. They suggested that energy-drink manufacturers who market to adolescents consider developing an educational component dealing with the effects of ingesting large quantities of caffeine.

Audi is giving £610 worth of free equipment on the entry-level A4 models until the end of March, which equates to getting an SE version for the same price as the basic model.

TBONE2004 is a ranter and commentator on Youtube and formerly on ZippCast, known for his infamous rants on the furry fandom, as well as his long running series "ILL-Logical Ranting". He began commentating back in 2011, drawing inspiration from Juniorfan and Youngbloodfantasy91, creating his own style, while combining his signature aggressive ranting nature with said videos. In 2014, TBONE2004 left Youtube for the recently restored ZippCast, only to return to Youtube six months later due to ZippCast shutting down. He has been posting there ever since.
Early Career Edit
TBONE2004 began his run on Youtube back in January 2008, ranting in the vein of BigAl2K6 and Spax3. His first videos included rants on the Sonic Fanbase, including the infamous Sonic Passion forums. After a botched trolling attempt on TBONE, he would gain massive popularity from said video. The following year, however, he removed the videos due to the Sonic Fanwar of 2009 brought on by Spax3 and GuardianEarth128. Later that year, he announced a year long hiatus, stating that he was being deployed overseas with the United States Armed Forces. He later returned the following year, and would continue posting videos heading into 2011. He then drew inspiration from commentator Juniorfan89 (originally known as Juniorfan88) after seeing his commentary on his own commentary on Youtube user CoolNSexyRickz. This lead to TBONE becoming inspired to bring back some of his old videos to critique them, and thus leading to his first commentary.
TBONE's COMMENTARY CORNER Edit
TBONE's first commentary was on a video where he viciously attacked two trolls who posted negative comments about his Sonic Passion rant. TBONE stated in this video that his poor judgement showed how hypocritical he could be, and went on to teach everyone a lesson in that regard, stating:
"If you have a video that you don't like, look back on it and see just how much you've improved."
This quote became the staple at the end of all of his videos afterwards. He would later make two more commentaries on himself in the exact same manner, claiming his victim was "A 22-Year-Old Autistic Furfag". In an ironic twist, his avatar for these first videos was of his fursona "Bunny Boy", who would also appear in his rant videos from 2011. He would then go on to make commentary videos on other users as well, doing exactly as he did to himself.
Avatars Edit
His most recognized avatar from 2008 to 2010 was Mega Man 5 robot master, Gravity Man. It is debated that TBONE uses Gravity Man in a similar manner that Juniorfan uses Quick Man from Mega Man 2, but TBONE has not disclosed why. Gravity Man would be phased out in 2010 when TBONE returned to Youtube and would reveal his real life counterpart. This lasted until 2011, also being phased out by his second avatar.
In 2011, starting with his first commentary, TBONE used his fursona he portrays in the furry fandom, Tristan "Bunny Boy" Fingerpin. TBONE stated that the reason he started using Bunny Boy was that he wanted a fresh new look after his second rant on the furry fandom. Bunny Boy would be phased out in May of 2011, with a subtle hint that Gravity Man would be returning soon.
In 2012, in the wake of the rising popularity of the animated series My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, TBONE would return to Youtube under the new paradigm, TBONE the Ranting Brony. This also lead to his third avatar, Princess Luna. He never gave a justified explanation why he chose Princess Luna, but this avatar would last until Fall of 2012, when he finally returned to using Gravity Man as his avatar. TBONE also dropped the Ranting Brony paradigm after a massive hacking of tumblr, brought on by the G.N.A.A. and other trolling groups.
TBONE would continue to use Gravity Man as his main avatar, animated by fellow Youtube user MutantYoshi, the latter also creating his intro sequence for his videos from 2013 until the Summer of 2019. As of September 2019, TBONE would retire Gravity Man for good, after using the avatar for 11 years. He would then use his fursona once more, redesigned by his girlfriend, Neve Fluffehbutt. She would also replace Mutant Yoshi as his animator and would also assist TBONE in editing his videos.

- TBONE'S COMMENTARY CORNER: KICKING THE WRONG BEEHIVE (user: Zengo366)
- NOTE: This episode featured two guest commentators, Florae FemPyro and Neve Fluffehbutt. Both would offer evidence, screenshots, and information for the video.
TBONE2004 also tried his hands at One-Shot Commentaries ala Youngbloodfantasy91, but decided not to make any more due to the fact that they seemed pointless, whereas a full video commentary would be much easier to dissect.
Current status in the Commentary Community Edit
TBONE has been sidelined in the commentary community many times, due to personal matters or his inspiration to do them. He would later admit that he was growing tired of them, because of the commentary community doing commentaries on other user's commentaries. He was then inspired to make a rant video entitled "Why Commentaries Are Getting Annoying". In this video, TBONE states that commentaries have "become nothing but one big shut the fuck up contest." He would later state he would quit doing commentaries after discovering several new commentators were ripping off some of his older works, including his famous commentary on DragonShadow3's rant on Toy Story.
In 2014, TBONE announced on ZippCast he would start commentating again, mentioning the possibility of commentating on deviantart user, YoshiWii1. He later said that due to lack of videos, the video would most likely have become similar to his commentary on PowerPup97, thus leading to the video being unfinished.
In 2015, TBONE returned to the commentary community with his commentary on Nick Bate. In this video, he attacks the user for his poor musical performance, then stating at the end of the video that Nick Bate deserved the commentary for his recent incarceration for child molestation, prompting TBONE to show his absolute disgust for said individual.
As of 2016, TBONE has contemplated a possible retirement of the character he's portrayed since 2008, in lieu of focusing on returning to other projects not related to ranting or commentaries. On April 1st 2017, TBONE reuploaded the second episode of his commentary series, but replaced the entire commentary with a repeating loop of Smash Mouth's 1999 single "All Star", with a picture of Shrek superimposed into the video. His reasoning for this April Fools Day prank was that he wanted to do something in the vein of YouTube user SilvaGunner, known for his "high quality rips" of video game music. He then followed suit with multiple videos of the same nature, featuring remixed music and animated pictures of Sylveon from Pokemon.
After the passing of Emer Prevost aka: Hellsing920, TBONE announced he was quitting the community for an indefinite amount of time. This was brought on after a user by the name of MTNProductions (formerly known as HomeoftheGoodGuys) made a rather disturbing video in regards to Emer's passing. TBONE was so enraged, that he ended his most recent video with a single phrase: "You know what I can't stand? THIS SHOW! Fuck it, I quit." After the video was uploaded, he remained silent, not uploading anything.
On May 6th, 2019, TBONE uploaded his first commentary in three years on Youtube user TMossBoss. After the video ended, TBONE declared that he will be returning to do more rant videos and potentially more commentaries.
Catchphrases Edit
- "Hello everyone, this is TBONE2004. And guess what? I'M IN A RANTING/COMMENTARY MOOD!"
- "Tonight's video is on [insert name of user]..."
- "Enjoy... because I sure as hell won't."
- "Ok, first problem here!"
- "Your logic is VERY INVALID!" (This line was first uttered in his commentary on Invalid Nickname, and makes reference to said user in other commentaries.)
- "Ouch! There goes [insert number] years of my hearing!" (This phrase is spoken whenever the user in the video starts screaming.)
- "...RANDOM EXPLOSION EFFECT!!!" (This phrase is usually spoken when TBONE experiences "Incoming Bullshit", and is usually accompanied by a scene of a controlled detonation.)
- "Sorry folks, I'm going for two! ANOTHER RANDOM EXPLOSION EFFECT!!!" (This is a nod to Doug Walker's famous meltdown in the Nostalgia Critic's review of "Quest for Camelot".)
- "The TUH!" (This phrase was made famous in his commentary on DragonShadow3's Toy Story rant, due to a very poor jumpcut, leading to TBONE calling him out on that early in the video. Ever since, "The TUH!" has been his most famous catchphrase.)
- "Wait a minute! Let's repeat what he/she just said!"
- "Continuing on..."
- "Why did you make this video? I really want to know why!"
- "Thank you for stating the obvious, Captain Obvious! Set a course for total fail!"
- "Do you know who you're starting to sound like?" (This line is usually said when TBONE is reminded of another Youtube user, which he would then either do an impression of the user, or play a clip of said user.)
- "This is TBONE2004, reminding you: if you have a video you don't like, look back on it, and see just how much you have improved. I thank you for your time, have a good day." (Spoken at the end of the commentary.)
- "Good night, good luck, and god speed!" (This line usually follows the previous quote. TBONE has also quoted fellow Youtube users Patch93, UrinatingTree, Juniorfan, and Youngbloodfantasy91 in his closing as well.)

When journalist Kevin Pitcairn receives a disturbing letter from a serial killer, he is drawn into a compelling journey with profound psychological and spiritual implications, not just for the murderer, but for himself and society as a whole.

Events conspire to propel an isolated matter to a national stage and audiences that are increasingly hostile. Forced to explore the roots of human psychology and sanity, Pitcairn must navigate moral and philosophical realms. What is the nature of evil? What powers of choice do humans actually possess? How may we be redeemed? And in the end, how do we reconcile with ourselves?

The radio antenna project has come under scrutiny because the wave types emitted by the Wireless Electromagnetic Method (WEM) project, namely extremely low frequency (ELF) radio waves, are considered "possibly carcinogenic to humans" by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
China's first ELF-emitting facility, a 1,400-mile project, was finally completed after 13 years, the South China Morning Post reports. The radio antenna facility's location hasn't been disclosed, though SCMP says it is somewhere in the central Huazhong region.
ELF waves have frequencies ranging from 30 to 3 Hz, meaning their wavelengths can be up to 10,000 and 100,000 kilometers long, respectively. Because of their great lengths, ELF waves are able to communicate small bits of information to submarine crews at depths where seawater would interfere with other radio transmissions.
Russia, the United States and India were previously the only countries believed to have established ELF facilities for communicating with submarines lurking at extraordinary depths. The US Navy's ELF sites operate at 76 Hz, according to a 2001 report by Federation of American Scientists.
ELF broadcast communications allow submarines to retain a "high degree of stealth and flexibility in speed and depth, but are low data rate, submarine-unique and short-to-submarine only," according to GlobalSecurity.org.
"This facility will have important military uses if a war breaks out," said Chen Xiaobin, a researcher at the China Earthquake Administration, according to SCMP.
Regarding the project's secrecy, Chen underscored that "though I am involved in the project, I have no idea where it is," adding that "it should be up and running by now."
Wenming Hu, party secretary of the state-owned China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation, visited the radio site last May, where he "expressed his appreciation for the construction of the WEM project and put forward opinions and requirements for the follow-up development of the project and the technical application in related fields," according to a company statement.
The WEM project will also be used for detecting seismic events and searching for minerals, the Chinese government says.

The Legend of 'Shoeless' Jackson
FIELD OF DREAMS airs on Sunday, October 7 @ 8 pm | 7C.
Stay for the enhanced version at 10:15 pm | 9C.
In 1887, Joe Jackson was born into a family of mill workers in Pickens County, South Carolina, and his family moved to a textile mill village outside of Greenville, SC when he was 5. When he was 6 years old, he went to work sweeping cotton lint off the floors of Brandon Mill. He never got a chance to have much formal education, and was essentially illiterate his whole life, a fact that would have some bearing on the events that would bring his baseball career to a halt in 1920. At age 13, Jackson started playing for the Brandon Mill baseball team.
Many different legends have circulated over the years about how 'Shoeless' Joe got his nickname. In 1949, Jackson told Sport Magazine the real story. "When I was playing for Greenville back in 1908, we only had 12 men on the roster," Jackson recalled. "I played in a new pair of shoes one day, and they wore big blisters on my feet. The next day we came up short of players, a couple of men hurt and one missing. Tommy Stouch was the manager, and he told me I'd just have to play, blisters or not. I tried it with my old shoes on and just couldn't make it. So I threw away the shoes and went to the outfield in my stockinged feet. I hadn't put out much until along about the seventh inning, I hit a long triple and I turned it on. As I pulled into third, some big guy stood up and hollered, 'You shoeless sonofagun, you!' They picked it up and started calling me 'Shoeless Joe' all around the league, and it stuck. I never played the outfield barefoot, and that was the only day I ever played in my stockinged feet, but it stuck with me."
'Shoeless' Joe's major league debut was in 1908 for the Philadelphia
Athletics. In 1910, he was traded to the Cleveland Naps, and in 1915,
he was traded to the Chicago White Sox. Two years later, in 1917, the
White Sox won the World Series.
To this day, Jackson holds the third-highest career batting average in
the history of baseball – his average is .356. Jackson, who batted left
and threw right, was such a formidable hitter that even the legendary
Babe Ruth claimed that he modeled his hitting technique after
Jackson's. "I copied his style because I thought he was the greatest
natural hitter I ever saw," Babe Ruth said. "He's the guy who made me a
hitter." Red Sox pitcher Ernie Shore marveled, "He could break bones
with his shots. Blindfold me, and I could still tell you when Joe hit
the ball. It had a special crack."
The bat that 'Roy Hobbs' uses in The Natural, which he calls
'Wonderboy,' was probably inspired by Shoeless Joe Jackson's favorite
bat, 'Black Betsy,' a crooked, hand-whittled dark brown hickory-wood
bat that in 2001 sold on eBay for $577,610.
In 1919, Jackson batted .351 during the regular season and a
spectacular .375 with perfect fielding in the World Series.
Unfortunately for Jackson, the heavily favored White Sox lost the
series to the Cincinnati Reds. This brought on the infamous 'Black Sox
Scandal,' which alleged that eight members of the Chicago White Sox had
conspired to throw the Series. Even though Jackson's performance had
been flawless throughout the series, he wound up being tarred with the
same brush as his teammates.
Jackson and seven other Chicago White Sox players were banned from
baseball at the end of the 1920 season by Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain
Landis. A Chicago jury acquitted them of wrongdoing the following year,
but despite that acquittal, Jackson was not reinstated and never played
another game of major league baseball. The White Sox didn't win another
World Series until 2005.
Jackson maintained his innocence throughout his life, insisting that
although he took $5,000 in bribe money – which he later tried to
return – he played his best throughout the series. "I tried to win all
the games," he said in his 'signed confession.' Even that confession
would lead to controversy among baseball historians, since Jackson was
functionally illiterate and had such difficulty writing that he usually
had his wife sign his autographs.
"I went out and played my heart out against Cincinnati," Jackson
insisted in 1949. "I set a record that stills stands for the most hits
in a Series. I made 13 hits, but after all the trouble came out, they
took one away from me. I led both teams in hitting with .375. I hit the
only home run of the Series. I came all the way home from first on a
single and scored the winning run in that 5-4 game. I handled 30 balls
in the outfield and never made an error or allowed a man to take an
extra base."
Legend has it that on his deathbed, Joe Jackson's last words were, "I'm
about to face the greatest umpire of all, and He knows I am innocent."
D.B. Sweeney, who played 'Shoeless' Joe in 1988's Eight Men Out,
couldn't understand why the legendary player was never granted
redemption. "The more I learned about Shoeless Joe, the more I felt he
was maligned. I realized he got 12 hits, batted .375, didn't make any
errors. What more could he have done – hit .600?"
After seeing Field of Dreams, Senator Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) became
interested in Jackson's case. He requested a review of Jackson's record
by Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig, with an eye to reinstating Jackson
to baseball, which would make him eligible for the Hall of Fame. Bud
Selig replied, "It is a very tragic story, and I certainly will try to
be objective, as well as fair, in reviewing the entire file."
Yet to this day, 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson's name remains on Major League
Baseball's ineligible list. Unless his name is removed from that list,
he can never be elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame.

BOBBIES are topping up their salaries with thousands of pounds in overtime payments.
According to new figures, one in five of constables is now earning more than £40,000 a year by working extra hours after their shifts.
Figures released under the Freedom of Information Act revealed that of West Midlands Police's 6,816 bobbies, 1,398 were paid more than £40,000 last year.
More than 12,000 PCs in 35 of the 51 forces in England, Scotland and Wales claimed more than £6,000 each in overtime last year – a rise of 20 per cent on their salaries.
The figures found that in some cases PCs were more than doubling their annual pay through overtime, with some earning more than their chief inspectors and superintendents.
Officers in some rural forces raked in more than £25,000 in overtime while nearly 500 topped up their salaries with more than £15,000.
Chairman of the home affairs select committee, Keith Vaz, said working this much overtime raised questions about an officer's ability to do his or her job effectively.
He said: "I do not believe that an officer working enough hours to warrant an almost doubling of their salary can be properly effective. There is a definite limit to which overtime should be relied upon."
Earlier this month, it emerged West Midland cops raked in £45?million in overtime payments in the past two years.
At the time, West Midlands Police Federation chair Andy Gilbert said: "This is not a perk. There is a lot of self-sacrifice, giving up days off and a lot of disruption to their home lives, but they are prepared to put themselves out for the greater good.
"Officers have to work overtime for genuine operational reasons – this is not a job where they can clock-off at 5pm and walk away from a situation – they have to see it through."
A West Midlands Police spokesman said: "Overtime for all police staff and officers is a cost-effective and necessary contingency that the force requires to deal with unexpected emergency situations."

JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia – Nigeria's oil minister said on Sunday he hoped the supply cut agreement between OPEC and non-OPEC members would be extended until year-end.
"I'm hoping so," Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu said when asked if the deal needs to be extended. "I'm not so much worried about wars. I don't think that will happen… I don't think anybody's going to push to the point of war," Kachikwu said when asked about a risk of war in the region.

Sarasota, Florida Bankruptcy Attorney Assisting Creditors
While bankruptcy laws are quite compassionate towards individuals who've fallen on hard times, they can be harsh on creditors who are forced to absorb a loss that helps finance the debtor's fresh start. However, if you've received a notice of bankruptcy by someone who owes you money, don't assume that you have no rights. Bankruptcy attorney Arthur S. Weitzner has been helping creditors assert their rights toward debtors in bankruptcy for more than 40 years. He knows the bankruptcy code inside and out and can advise you on the steps to take to improve your chances of being repaid. He is available to assist you in cases related to:
Chapter 7 bankruptcy
Chapter 11 bankruptcy
Chapter 13 bankruptcy
What an "automatic stay" means to a creditor
An automatic stay is an injunction by the bankruptcy court that immediately prohibits creditors from seeking repayment of debts from the debtor. It doesn't mean you're out of luck, but it does mean any efforts to recover what you are owed must be directed towards the court. Arthur S. Weitzner, P.A. assists creditors in reviewing a debtor's bankruptcy petition to see precisely where opportunities exist for the creditor to advance his claim. Attorney Weitzner is aggressive in meeting the court deadlines, which come quickly and require detailed responses. He takes the stress off his clients' shoulders.
Secured versus unsecured debt
A loan that is secured by collateral gives the creditor a lien against a debtor's asset. This is a huge advantage in bankruptcy court, where secured creditors go to the head of the line. Often the issue is straightforward, but where there is ambiguity about whether a debt is secured, a skilled attorney can make the difference to a creditor's chances of recovery.
The honesty requirement
The U.S. Supreme Court has stated that the Bankruptcy Code "gives to the honest but unfortunate debtor...a new opportunity in life." If the debtor took on the debt in bad faith or through some kind of dishonest manipulation, he can't discharge that debt. Likewise, if you believe there is misrepresentation or fraud in the debtor's bankruptcy petition, such as attempting to hide assets, you must bring those objections to the court. An experienced bankruptcy attorney can present a clear and convincing argument to help your cause.
Bankruptcy proceedings move quickly contact an attorney today!
Especially today, when bankruptcy filings are so numerous, the court is eager to decide cases fast. If you delay asserting your rights, you can easily lose them. Call Arthur S.

The new Arena Spice
Colourful, playful and infinitely feminine
The Watch Quote - September 4th, 2007
Sporty and precious
Born into the Arena line famed for its sophisticated mechanisms and contemporary elegance, the Arena Spice features a generous 41 mm-diameter steel case framing a stunningly original mother-of-pearl and brushed sapphire dial rimmed with sparkling diamonds. Together with the black rubber outer bezel and strap, this combination is typical of the Gérald Genta fascination with materials and original associations.
Most importantly of all, however, the classic Gérald Genta technical combination of jumping hours and retrograde minutes has been used to spectacular effect by placing a representation of Ittens circle below the dial. In his major book on colour theory, Elements of Colour, Johannes Itten said that colours are the children of light and light is their mother. Light, that first phenomenon of the world, reveals to us the spirit and living soul of the world through colours. In applying this principle based on wrapping the colour spectrum onto a circle to create twelve secondary colours from the primary triad, Gérald Genta offers a watchmaking anthem to light and life. On the unprecedented Arena Spice watch, as each jumping hour moves into the aperture at 6 oclock, it is accompanied by its own specific shade, giving this watch a life of its own that subtly plays on the whole spectrum of human emotions.
Never a dull moment
Women enjoy changing outfit to suit their mood and the time of day. Now the Arena Spice gives them a chance to revel in changes of colour simply by observing the steady advance of the hours and by experiencing each and every nuance of a given day... or night. Speaking of which, the numerals and the pattern of dots on the central dial zone are luminescent, which makes them sparkle like a brilliant star when the lights are low. Adding to the visual interest, the two upcoming hours appear faintly through brushed sapphire crystal apertures that enable them to store up enough light to ensure the luminescence. Meanwhile, a central seconds hand sweeps steadily around the dial, while the retrograde minute hand is designed with holes to match the progressive size of the dots, contributing to an intriguing almost three-dimensional effect.
With this exciting, bubbly, vivacious new model, Gérald Genta provides eloqune proof that variety is also the spice of time.
In a nutshell
Mechanical self-winding movement GG 7510, 42-hour power reserve, 28,800 vph. 41 mm diameter case with luminescent dots and hour numerals on a mother-of-pearl and brushed sapphire crystal dial displaying one colour for each hour.
