The Syrian Civil War in 25 pictures
The Syrian Civil War is an ongoing armed conflict between the government forces loyal to Syrian president Bashar all-Assad and the Syrian rebels, organized into the Free Syrian Army. With the presence of ISIS, the war has become increasingly violent and chaotic as the multiple groups clash against each other, extracting a heavy toll on Syrian civilians. The fighting has left over 200,000 dead and 3.7 million refugees homeless in nearly four years, devastating Syria. Below are 25 pictures that capture the brutal reality of the Syrian Civil War.

"Coming soon!…A boy is going to fly! Do you believe it?…Will you be there???"
A spate of mysterious announcement letters just like that, each accompanied by its own feather, circulate around Lambourn Secondary School. Narrator Alex Meadows is at first fearful but then becomes intrigued, welcoming the distraction from the usual routine. While he has been successfully employing a don't-react strategy against the provocations of bullies like Alan Tydman, his neighbor David "Bogsy" Marsh chooses the opposite tactic and suffers for it. Alex eventually discovers that Bogsy is the one sending the notes as they navigate their emerging friendship, confront their tormentor, and ultimately participate in what becomes the Icarus Show. Alex's warm relationship with his elderly neighbors plays a significant role when one, learning that Bogsy is in serious trouble, gives helpful advice and summons his real-life Daedulus to save the day. With Alex's chatty narration, Christie employs an ambitious and promising story structure and some cinematic imagery, laced with British nuance. Although development between plot points is occasionally heavy-handed or lacking in depth, the overall message will resonate. Alex is silent on matters of race; readers will likely infer that he and his classmates are white.
An aspirational mix of Greek myth and painful truths for middle-grade readers. (Fiction. 9-12)

Do you think we should have sport everyday? No, We shouldn't here is why.
- If we had sport every day we would be so tired and we would not be able to do anything after school.
2. If we did PE everyday we might get sick of doing sport and find it super boring.
3. If we had sport all the time we could get really sore and find it hard to run or maybe even walk. Sport 1 or 2 times a week would be good
My conclusion is that the sport calendar we currently have is superlative and there is no need to change it.

By Claire.
Small town Western Australia, 1965. The bright and inquisitive Charlie Bucktin is woken in the middle of the night by the town's mixed-race outcast, Jasper Jones. Begging for help, Jasper lures Charlie to a clearing in the bush on the outskirts of town to find a sinister end for local girl Laura Wishart. Charlie is thus whisked into a whirlwind of mystery and secrecy, as he tries to find out who killed this girl. Three kids swept up into a complicated adult world, Jasper Jones is the ultimate young Australian gothic, and one of the best Australian films I have ever seen.
Prior to university, when I thought of Australian film I thought of the low calibre, ocker and subversive. This perception was founded on too many viewings of Round the Twist, and little actual knowledge of Australian film. Here's the thing, though: Australia can make great films, of high calibre - they just occur few and far between.
(left to right) Angourie Rice as Eliza Wishart, Aaron L. McGrath as Jasper Jones and Levi Miller as Charlie Bucktin
Directed by Rachel Perkins, Jasper Jones is an example of the standard that Australian films can demonstrate. What Perkins achieves, and sets the film apart, is a deep understanding and respect not only for the text, but for Australian stories. This level of respect is something last year's Joe Cinque's Consolation fell short of achieving. Both stories of crime, both adapted from books, but both with vastly different outcomes. In an article for The Guardian, James Robert Douglas argues the issue with Joe Cinque's Consolation was that the author of the book, Helen Garner, wasn't involved in the adaption. Based on a true story, instead of a straight adaption of Garner's investigation, director and writer Sotiris Dounoukos chose to dramatise the events of Joe Cinque's murder, in a way which had myself and others in the cinema cringing, not gasping. Harsh words, but the film had a distinct aura of not taking itself seriously. This could be due to it being Dounoukos' first feature, or a lack of understanding as deep as only Garner's investigative reporting and writing can provide.
On the other hand, there is Jasper Jones. Adapted from the Australian modern classic by Craig Silvey, Silvey was primary writer on the screenplay and actively on set every day, keeping a close eye on the adaption and providing support as a person who knew the story. In addition, as revealed at the Cinema Nova Q&A, what eventually led producers Vincent Sheehan and David Jowsey to choose Perkins for the role of director was her deep understanding of the book. What results is a story taken seriously and filled with intricate details, and a film that hits the mark, spot on.
Charlie and Jasper confronting Mad Jack Lionel in Jasper Jones
This successful inclusion of the author is also the case for The Dressmaker. Directed by Jocelyn Moorehouse and based on the book by Rosalie Ham, The Dressmaker opened at #1 in the Australian box office - no small feat in a culture which often overlooks Australian film for the latest US blockbuster. Unlike Silvey, Ham did not write the screenplay for the adaption of her book, but early interviews indicate she was active in the production.
Like Jasper Jones, The Dressmaker is a mid-century Australian gothic set in a small town. In the hands of any other directors both films could have fallen into the all-too-familiar pit of the ocker and larrikin typical of many Australian male directors, as evident in the absurdly successful Crocodile Dundee in the 1980s and ever-present in Australian films ever since. The effect this has had on Australian films is the notion of cultural cringe, parodies of Australian life, as if the filmmakers are embarrassed of telling an Australian story. Perkins and Moorehouse avoid this, though, and tell Australian stories with heart. Perhaps this is due to them being women. The ocker and its ties to Crocodile Dundee is a masculine perspective, whereas women are not included in this identity. The ocker does not influence their style, and thus female directors offer a fresh perspective for Australian screens.
(left to right) Judy Davis, Sarah Snook and Kate Winslet in The Dressmaker
This is not to say Australian men can't make beautiful films, such as Simon Stone's The Daughter and Garth Davis' Lion, but the perception of ockerness persists. The inclusion of female directors gives a fresh, more serious point of view to Australian cinema. Due to being outside of the traditional Australian identity, female directors know how to make a good film, as they aren't bound to Australia's history of the ocker and the subversive. Of course, this is improving, with Screen Australia's Gender Matters initiative, and active conversations happening around the country and throughout the industry. Women need to be given more opportunities to tell stories, because time and time again these films have shown what should define the Australian film industry.

Happy birthday, dude! :D
Has it now?
Actually, I've been doing okay. I was having some emotional troubles, by my mom helped clear those up. I would go more into detail, but I don't think you would understand the subject.
Bob is the husband of my idiot cousin. She cheated on him, so they might get a divorce. It's pretty nasty, but my loser aunt is threatening him if he leaves my idiot cousin. Not that she's scary. The only reason I'd be scared of her is if she started to fall and I was in the way. He Skypes my sister and came to visit since he and she are friends. He's a nice guy and I feel sorry for him because he didn't know how my idiot cousin was before he married her. Anyway, I am good, not sleeping well, though. I'm going to a water park on Sunday. Normally, I wouldn't have gone, but I want to try and be less shy towards boys, so I decided to go.
And yes, I do get that feeling sometimes. Like my heart is being weighted down by all the feelings. It's a terrible feeling. I don't get it much these days, mostly because I am too tired to do much.
Thanks, but I didn't do much.
Not much. Was just about to play Battlefront. Today is kind of a bad day for me. I'll tell you more about it on AIM.
I love Adventure Time. It's amazing.
Actually, we just sat around the house, waiting to open presents and watching Adventure Time. It was actually pretty boring. I hope yours was better.
Merry Christmas, bud. My gift to you is good wishes for happy feelings! (I know, it's a terrible gift, but it's the only one I have. Bear with me.)

Please place five account of your event. You may become a higher income someone as a end result.
Many present time in my gross sales career, that now spans complete 17 years, I have had debates beside peers, executives, and managers on the subject of what the maximum vituperative income display place may well be. I have enjoyed the vital conversations because one and all has their own sentiment and it's generally a vehement one. I retributive esteem the commitment and energy! Some say it's the concluding skill, a few say it's prospecting, and on downbound the band...........
I too carry a severe bias! I claim that qualification is the one-woman most impressive rung in the gross revenue practice. This simply can't be overstated, but its vigour is regularly under-estimated by professional income people in every commercial enterprise. This under-estimation is due, in part, to the reality that peak people, who qualify well, run to do so on fluke or as a repercussion of crude wonder.Post ads:

Have you ever renowned a human being who sold solitary one product? It's a hard to chew road, but here are thousands of grouping who lone have a single mixture (one widget, if you will) in their bag and record gross revenue general public in this position get turn out fast because they shot to make everyone buy their product. Seems like the rightly scheme doesn't it? "Try to get everyone to buy......" Great in theory, but it is simply not practical. So why do many take over from patch solely having one article of trade to sell? The survivors illustration out how to ask questions that aid to do one of two things
1.) show a entail or
2.) identify the want of a involve.Post ads:

We all cognize that this is named "qualification" and as I aforementioned nearer it is the most of the essence pace in the gross revenue method. Why? Because next to the intelligence you have from disposal a meticulous qualification, you can create all the otherwise ladder in the gross sales procedure industry more smoothly, more naturally, and you can kind your develop give the impression of being close to your customer's opinion.
If I told you that I craved you to unmitigated a 50 scrap challenge and gave you
15 pieces, would you establishment golf shot them in cooperation immediately, or would you ask me to supply you the another 35 pieces?
Allow me to typify how this building complex in gross revenue. Let's say you are an Account Executive merchandising Long Distance services - you yak near a sphere and unearth that they are at the moment beside a competitor's service, fears change, fears downtime, have small-scale rate sensitivity, have no IT staff, deed expires in 3 months, have had outages near their prevailing businessperson and they be to like you. They have their other telecommunications requirements addressed by a sort of other suppliers. You consult around your design and how terrible your flagship article of trade is. You get his LD bill and set an date for adjacent Thursday to in progress your plan.
With a big grinning on your facade you move the hope next to a bill in paw and a plan! You deduce to yourself, now that was one forfeit meeting, I'll have to recite that more repeatedly. Over the next period you put in cooperation your message (saving 5% over and done with what the client pays today) and now it's Thursday. You congregate near the prospect, grant your solution, and ask for the company. You are expecting a 'yes', but as an alternative you get a "we'll have to equate this to our new proposals and we'll get backbone with you". In fantabulous sales man style, you reply, "when will you be production a decision?" The consumer says, "end of this month". So you ask, "can I call upon you subsequent week?" He says "sure". And that concludes your get-together. You stride out to your car in doubt of whether that was a swell assemblage or not. You were professional, prepared, articulate, and conversant. You asked for the business, you set a follow-on suspense. Yet location in the pay for of your head, your unconscious is speech "you didn't pin that one, did you?", "you've detected that one until that time - yeah, we'll phone call you", "you're not acquiring that commercial pal". But you conclude that you coloured all the ladder in the process, so you intimidate those accepted wisdom away and move in and out on to build the self mistakes at your subsequent possibility.
So what was the mistake? Where did you go so wrong? I gave you a air in advance when I mentioned the conundrum.
If you one and only have a tertiary of the puzzle, past the second-best you can expectancy for is
33% and that's presumptuous all the pieces fit together, which they won't. The self holds literal in income - if you solely ask questions that identify a ordinal of the opportunity, afterwards superlative capital punishment nets you 33%.
I wish my role player to be the optimal of the foremost and here's a illegal - SO DO OUR PROSPECTS!!!! That implementation interrogative twice over as masses questions as our competitors, not half as oodles. It ability presenting an splendid presence, a assurance beside our products, an empathy of the prospect's business, and an zest in what needs they have today and may have mean solar day.
If I were a possibility and a trafficker came to my movable barrier without all that above and an competency to (at lowest generically) explicate what my competitors were doing, why they were doing it, and what event it was having on them, I would not buy from them. Would you buy from you?
The bar is set soaring for you by your prospects and if don't vindicate that bar with ease, next you will not plausible realise their business!
How do you win? You measure up completely!!!! You ask who they're doing business organization with, what they like, what they don't like, why they elite the present-day provider, why they would walk out them, who they would accept if they were to do it all finished again and why. Ask them why they would ponder purchasing from you, why they would prime different businessperson this time, who are you are competitory against, what they want in a provider, what period of time reimbursement them, who makes the decisions, what drives that person, when can you run into near that person, do they have the budget, what could weaken the project, do they want to change, when do contracts expire, are near out clauses in the current contracts, do they cognize otherwise companies that power be interested in buying the employment you sell, etc..........
When you have as at hand to 100% of the pieces as you can get, afterwards you can bring together them, lucifer the word-perfect treatment to the afoot situation, limit the solution's attraction in the customer's terms, removed yourself from the competition, and ask for the business organisation by characteristic how your therapy addresses the issues the user known during your qualification pains. This makes concluding both far more credible and far more executive.
And don't bury odds Two. Not both client has a modern stipulation. You may brainstorm that this perspective doesn't, so pay public interest and don't surplus their event or yours! Time is the best loved good worth of the income administrative - you must safeguard it!!!!

Thoughts on the standoff in Armenia and the associated political undercurrents:
Thoughts on the standoff in Armenia and the associated political undercurrents:
Most people around the world are confused as to why the takeover of a police station has caused what seems to be an irreparable rift between a segment of Armenia's populace and the authorities.
Years of issue-based
Whatever happens in the next 24 hours with the Sasna Dzrer armed group at the police station, these are the resulting political truths:
1) Voter fraud, ballot stuffing and stolen elections starting with the Parliamentary elections in 2017 will no longer be met with apathy but with the full force of the Armenian populace. Only the irresponsible, inequitable programs and reactions of the government can create a revolution in Armenia. This means we all need to further strengthen civic society in the country and beef up the monitoring efforts of upcoming elections with international media presence and full transparency.
2) "We don't want to be the bitch of any superpower". One thing we learned from the protests in the past were how foreign powers were interested in using them as political tools for their own interests. We need to diplomatically shift away from unipolar geopolitics to one that sees everything in the interests of our homeland.
3) The Armenian Diaspora can no longer afford to just be a checkbook to Armenia but will be forced to organize to become "the checks and balances" we desperately need within the country. The Diasporan silence over injustices within the country over the last few decades has made our country worst, not better. There is no excuse for the further disconnect.
4) We can no longer expect to be "saved" by a leader or a President.
5) We are not Erdogan's Turkey: violence or imprisonment of journalists will not be tolerated. It's in our cultural heritage to speak openly and loudly and we deserve it after 600 years of Ottoman oppression. Going after journalists is a sign of weakness by the government in any country.
6) The police chief and mayor of Yerevan should resign based on how the situation has been handled by Yerevan's police. Re-training of the forces would also be recommended. Policemen who feel that people are being arrested without due cause should resist following their orders in lieu of hurting their people.
7) Non-violence: as frustrated as people are with the ruling elites, they should not hurl violence at police officers or anyone else. Most of these officers are our sons and daughters and are no more guilty of personal subservience to injustice than ourselves even if they are following the orders of the government. No one deserves violence. A country with a literacy rate of 90% like Armenia must not have mob rule.
The president and Armenian leadership must show leadership and de-escalate the situation immediately with concessions and reason at its core and realize all of this is not due to a standard hostage takeover but embodies the imbalance of their rule.
We can no longer see our homeland downtrodden and depopulated on our watch. The course of history is changed by action not apathy.
Most importantly, we need to stop the bloodshed on the streets of Yerevan now!!
Finally an international TV program focusing on this attached:
Love the quote by Richard Giragossian near the end of the program:

I had been in love with my best friend for years. I finally decided to tell him my feelings, and he rejected me. He said he thought we were better off friends and that we could see what happened in the future. Well, about six months later I met someone that I really like. Now that he and I have been dating for about six months, my best friend is telling me he can't believe that I'm getting serious with this new guy. He said he always saw us eventually getting together, getting married and having children. WHY WOULD HE TELL ME THIS NOW? I'm so confused. I like the new guy I'm seeing, and it's hard for me to imagine leaving him for my best friend who has never expressed a romantic interest. And at the same time, I do still have feelings…but I have been getting over them. My friend is someone that I already know and am comfortable with, but I'm not sure that he can be trusted since he is JUST NOW expressing any feelings. And my new guy has expressed his interest since day one, but he IS new. What should I do?
Good Morning Anonymous, thank you for submitting your letter. The question of what you should do (to me) has a very obvious answer. But before I give you my opinion, I'm going to try and dissect your letter. By doing so it may enlighten you and answer some of the questions you are currently struggling with. You start your letter with "I had been in Love with my best friend for years. I finally decided to tell him my feelings, and he rejected me". The key phrase in that sentence is…rejected me. See, I don't believe he did reject you…I believe he saved you. And what do I mean by that you ask? Well it seems to me that this man valued your friendship so much that he wasn't willing to take the risk and ruin something that he treasures over something that he wasn't ready for…and that's a real man! Sometimes when you care so much about a person you're willing to sacrifice your own selfish motives for them. And it sounds like that's what he was doing at the time. But your conversation may have sparked a thought in his mind… well maybe when I stop playing around and am ready for that one person that I can share everything with…..why not my best friend? So that's the thought that he had stored in his back of his mind. But here's when things changed. You met a guy…and you start dating. He is cool with it in the beginning, but he starts to realize that this relationship you're in is starting to become serious and it's now affecting your friendship. For example, the time you used to share with him hanging out…is now being spent with the new guy. The times you used to call him and share what happened at work…those phone calls are now being made to the new boyfriend. So now your best friend feels like you're slipping away. So what does he do? He does the total opposite of what he did earlier…he becomes…selfish. He reveals his feelings and thoughts to you. Not because he had an epiphany and he wants to run away with you to elope. No, he does it because he doesn't want to lose his friend. So he tells you what his thoughts were, hoping that your feelings for your boyfriend aren't as strong as the friendship that the two of you share. So you chose your friendship over your relationship…and if you make that decision…it will be a mistake! And that's because the comments he made aren't based upon wanting you…they're based on him not wanting to lose his friend. So what to do now? I would continue with my relationship. But you and your best friend should and need to have a conversation. Express to him how much your friendship means to you…and no matter your relationship status…you will always be his friend. He may be upset now, but if he is the friend that you describe him as being…then your being happiness will be what matters most to him!! HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND!!

The move is a shocker, coming less than two years after Heinz gave its U.S. creative account to DDB Needham Worldwide, Chicago. The marketer also just eight months ago awarded a pan-European campaign to Euro RSCG Worldwide, London; those ads began airing last week as Heinz was hearing pitches on the larger review.
There are two more surprises: Heinz's main pet food agency, J. Walter Thompson USA, Chicago, isn't in the review, but Leo Burnett USA, the agency that resigned the Heinz account in 1994, is.
Along with Burnett and DDB Needham, Heinz heard pitches Sept. 3 and Sept. 4 from Euro RSCG and Bates Worldwide. It's believed that TBWA Chiat/Day also is in the running.
A decision could be made as soon as this week.
Neither Heinz nor any of the agencies would comment.
Executives familiar with the review said William Johnson, who succeeded the legendary Anthony J.F. O'Reilly as CEO of the $9 billion company at the end of 1997, is anxious to make his mark via a major global marketing initiative.
"Johnson is passionate about [Heinz ketchup] becoming the next Coca-Cola," said one executive familiar with the plan. Heinz retail ketchup sales around the world are currently $1 billion.
The campaign that just broke in Europe has a global feel, carrying the theme "All the world says Heinz" and featuring kids from different countries pouring ketchup on everything from pasta to pineapple.
In a news release announcing that campaign, Eric Salamon, general manager-corporate marketing at Heinz European Grocery, said: "Until now the brand has not spoken with one voice. But with the introduction of European category management, we have an opportunity to develop a single positioning and a unified marketing strategy."
Whether Heinz will spend heavily on the campaign in the U.S. remains to be seen. Burnett publicly resigned the business in 1994 because Heinz was committing virtually all its marketing budget to promotions rather than advertising. That was supposed to change after the assignment to DDB Needham and the company's implementation of a cost-cutting program designed to free up more funds for advertising.
But although Heinz last January broke a spot from DDB Needham showing 25 tomatoes morphing into a bottle of ketchup, the ad has barely run since then. According to Competitive Media Reporting, Heinz spent just $1.5 million on measured media for ketchup in the first five months of this year.
The low spending levels haven't yet affected market share. According to Information Resources Inc., Heinz Ketchup sales were $460.3 million in supermarkets for the 52 weeks ended July 19 in supermarkets, up 3.1% over the same period last year. That gives Heinz a 54% category share.
No. 2, ConAgra's Hunt's, had sales of $248.7 million, up 1.4%. Private label came in third with $88.4 million in sales, up 5%.

Our vision for the future is a top-class, sustainable service for all voluntary and community organisations, run from our own building and in partnership with Bournemouth CVS.
To achieve this we need funding.
Any money given to us helps not just one frontline service, but many - we can multiply the effect of your money to make it achieve more.
We are a charity, and struggle to find funding to keep our services going, like most charities. The Borough of Poole gives us enough each year to support two to three members of staff, the rest we have to find from other sources. Over recent years we benefited from government and Big Lottery funding but we are not optimistic about these funds coming round again. Full information on our funding is on our How we are funded page.
We do not usually qualify for money from grant-making trusts, as they prefer to give to charities which help people directly – we are known as a second-tier service, that is, we help organisations rather than directly helping people
You could help us by sending a donation, or by leaving us something in your will.
To leave us money in your will, consult your solicitor. You can leave either a set sum, or a percentage of your estate (perhaps after giving the majority of it to family). It is important to give your solicitor our full name: Poole Council for Voluntary Service and our Charity Number: 1128227. Please get in touch with our chief executive if you need any more advice on this.

My friends, for the last few / several / however many days, I have been buried deep in a bunker of thought, introspection and professional advancement at a marketing conference focusing on the question of the consumer's self-image and its effect on rationalised sales data. As you can imagine, my head feels like it's been fucked by a horse.
Over the course of this conference, several significant thoughts have occurred unto me. First, I have no fucking clue what the consumer's self-image has to do with rationalised sales data. Not one. Not even a small slice of half of a clue. Second, I have no fucking clue what rationalised sales data is. Third, I should NEVER agree to attend a conference without first checking whether there will be booze there. A conference in a 'dry county', as the Yanks call them, is a fundamentally stupid idea. In fact, it's FUCKING stupid. I'd go as far as to say it's more stupid than Robbie Williams.
The most striking thought to…er…strike me, however, was this: as a communications expert, marketing thought-leader and advertising inspirationalist, I thought it was about time I stopped going to other people's conferences and staged my own. I'm in the early planning stages, but I've settled on the name CultureSmash. (I originally went for CultureFuck, but my mother (who's nearly target audience) said it would offend God.)
What I want CultureSmash to be is a completely 360 imaginarium that brings together experts from the worlds of advertising and communications, social media and branding, and puts them in a cross conversational environment with members of a range of other everyday professions – doctors, teachers, postmen, strippers, nurses, sexworkers, massage professionals, eroticians and so on. You know – just a cross-section of the public.
What I also want CultureSmash to be is the conference that end-games the sectorised reliance on silo-specific jargon. I want it to establish a commercial and social truth in and pertaining to the methodologies, strategies and conventionalised behaviour-patterns surrounding the societal deployment of online social tools.
I can't make it any clearer than that, really. I think.
Here's a tentative agenda for the day, based on my experience of conferences, and my firm beliefs about how they should be organised.
Friday (date TBC), 12.30pm
Meet and greet at Dog & Hog, or Radish Bar, or Dog Bar, or God Bar (depends one which I haven't been 'de-customered' from on the day).
An informal session that will give delegates the chance to get to know one another in an informal setting. Drinks available at delegates' own expense.
Friday, 7.30pm
Keynote Speech
With the informal meet and greet out of the way, delegates are welcomed to the main venue where Dave Knockles will deliver the Key Note Speech: Emulsifying The Now. Disseminating The Future. (I came up with that in the bath. Once I work out what the fuck it mean, I'm pretty sure it'll be amazing.)
Friday, 7.40pm
Networking at Delilaz Executive Dance Bar
Keynote Speech over, it's time to let our hair down. Delilaz, my preferred erotic lady bar, has agreed to lay on some fish paste sandwiches and a selection of executive vol-oh-vonts. (And if I know Delilaz, those crazy, naughty, over-enthusiastic, borderline law-abiding girls will be dishing out handjobs for 45 notes a go! They are incorrigible!)
This is your chance to really cut loose before the Army-standard schedule I'll be enforcing tomorrow.)
Saturday, 3.30pm
No fucking about. NONE. If you had a lager shandy too many last night, tough shit. I will personally be rousing delegates with a visit to your hotel room. You think I'm joking? I'm not! I'll probably be in one of your hotel rooms come morning anyway! HA HA! (Seriously, though, I won't be booking myself a room so I am expecting a bunk-up.) We really need to be up and about by 3.30pm. Well, okay, let's be reasonable, 5pm. Or…let's think about this…everyone will need a shower and shit and a bit of a rest, then a cup of tea…okay – let's say breakfast is at 7pm on Saturday, but NO LATER. Unless you're late.
Saturday, evening-ish
Seminars and shit
I mean, what does 'evening' mean? Could be 6pm for some people! Could be 11pm for others. Let's just stay in touch. Text me, I'll pick it up. Anyway, I'll have all these rooms booked, so let's use them. I'll do a seminar on, like, ads and shit, and you lot can fill in the rest, right? Just sort it out amongst yourselves and…you know…have fun! Just make sure that by the end of it, we've got an answer to all the major media, digital and advertising problems of the age. Yes? Agreed? Good.
Saturday, later…like…whenever
You really have no idea how important networking is. So let's fucking network our tits off.
Sunday, all day
Sunday will be devoted to calm reflection, analysis of the issues facing us as a society and some other stuff I will fill in soon. Above all, it's about calm reflection. For fuck's sake. Calm. No noise. Just sit there and shut the fuck up.
I think that works, right? Let me know if you fancy it and I'll put it on a long list of things I need to get round to.
I am Dave Knockles! And I am the king of the conference!

Volunteer Zach Oles uses magic to teach in Haiti
Volunteer Zach Oles uses magic to teach in Haiti
Helping Haiti
By Gus Pearcy
Flyer Staff Writer
BROWNSBURG, INDIANA -- Here, Zach Oles is a 1998 graduate of Brownsburg High School and a 2002 Indiana University graduate with a major in environmental management. In Haiti, Oles is the "magic man."
Last October, Oles arrived in Haiti for a 27-month stint in the Peace Corps as an agricultural volunteer. He is helping the northern village of Plaisance establish some long-term programs that will yield either food or cash for residents.
Village children are fond of his trick of removing a finger from his hand. He's received so many requests that he tells the children he can only do it once a day in the hot sun.
He wears contacts, something new to his neighbors who spent the first few weeks marveling at the plastic discs he places in his eyes.
Those are just some of the adventures he has described to family and friends during a vacation over the Fourth of July weekend.
On his $200-a-month stipend, Oles is able to purchase housing, food and travel. The money makes him one of the richest men in the village. So rich he is able to hire help for everyday chores.
"Cooking and cleaning there is a full-time job," Oles said. "You have to go to the markets often because you have no refrigeration."
Oles' primary project is a tree nursery growing oak, mango, avocado and coffee trees.
Originally, Oles said he wanted to travel and experience diversity. The Peace Corps motto, "The toughest job you'll ever love," rings true in Oles' case. He is stationed alone in Plaisance with no running water, no electricity and no phones. The closest telephone is two and half hours from his home.
Haiti's native language is Kreyol, a mix of mostly French with some African languages. It's something Oles had to learn while he was there.
"Not using English at all, made Kreyol learning and speaking easier," Oles said.
The poverty and despair that are part of everyday life in Haiti was a shock, Oles said. Seeing starvation first hand was difficult to deal with, he said.
He said he heard someone accurately describe the small country of 14 million inhabitants as pathetic and fascinating. He says he's seen many funerals in the last 10 months.
Still he says it is a great experience.
"Like most things in life, it's not what you expect," Oles said. "But you deal with it."
He won't be home again until Christmas. Then he has almost another year of service.
There have been benefits. Oles says he will look at life differently after his Peace Corps experience. For one, he said he will be more active in community and world affairs.

I truly can't believe this was two years ago today and that we did it, we actually followed through 100%. It's something I will always be proud of and so happy it happened. I gained a lifelong friend from this photo project.
and 365. I had a few ideas for my last moment, but in the end just really wanted to send you my love…so decided to blow you kisses, camera in hand, heart full of gratitude and love… The cabin alcove with the mirror was kinda dark, but I just went with it.
let's talk soon dear friend. we should do a toast to each other and our accomplishment sometime with each of us pouring a glass of wine (or a cup of tea!) and them talking on the phone. : )
I love you Cali mama, xoxo ~ A., Indy mama
365 – The last and final moment. We did it Angela! Just like I mentioned to you, in celebration of our final moment I got my nose pierced!
The next thing we should do is have a nice long conversation on the phone. I think we are due, I also think we will miss each others moments so much that talking on the phone on a somewhat regular basis will become our next big thing;)
Much love

Is Gnosticism a dualistic religion? Is dualism a vital tenet of what makes a person or a sect Gnostic? My short answer is (despite what the heresiologists have always claimed): No.
Firstly we need to address what dualism is in relation to theology. Dictionary.com states that dualism is "the doctrine that there are two independent divine beings or eternal principles, one good and the other evil" and/or "the belief that a human being embodies two parts, as body and soul". Since the latter was not as emphatically denounced by the heresiologists as the former notion of two opposing gods or principles, I will address the first one here and the second one in another post.
Many Gnostic sects, including the Sethians and Valentinians (who are usually considered the main influences of modern Gnosticism), ascribe to what can be called Emanation Cosmogeny, the theory that the universe and everything in it is "created" through a series of emanations, or, perhaps more accurately, is emanated, not created. This is readily supported by the vast number of "Aeons" (emanated principles or eternal beings) that are used to describe the creation process of the cosmos. Indeed, this is also supported by the Qabalah (or Kabbalah), a kind of Jewish mystical gnosticism of its own, where the spheres of the Sephiroth (which could easily be likened to Aeons) are emanated one following the other to make up the Tree of Life, the effective "map" of the Universe, and these in turn are emanated through the Three Veils of Negative Existence from the "Source" which the Gnostics would have (and do to this day) called the Pleroma ("Fullness"). Now, how can this notion of the "fullness" of God equate with the radical dualist notion of a good god versus a bad god?
To elucidate how different these two "theisms" are, check the following diagrams. The first shows the radical dualist concept (one that is, admittedly upheld by certain Gnostic groups like the Cathars and Manichaens, though sometimes in a more mitigated form). The second shows panentheism (not the same as pantheism), which is most accurate for the Gnostic conception:
The Qabalah also has a concept called "Tzimtzum" ("contraction" or "constriction") which relates to this Emanation Cosmogeny. The main element of this concept is that God "contracted" himself in order to grant the space for a finite world to exist in. to conceal from created beings the activating force within them, enabling them to exist as tangible entities, instead of being utterly nullified within their source". It also contains the paradox that God is simultaneously transcendent and immanent.
To end, Father Jordan Stratford+ of the AJC has an excellent post on the cosmogony of Gnosticism, part of which says: "Gnostic Tradition teaches that the Pleroma ("the Fullness") is the Ultimate Godhead; everything – everything – radiates out concentrically from the Godhead like ripples from a stone dropped in water: Christ, Sophia, the Demiurge, you, me, chartered accountants, loofas, squids, ginko trees. The Pleroma is also the stone, and the water, and the idea and act of "dropping". This is a good analogy, as a wave/ripple is a transitory expression of a phenomenon rather than an object unto itself."

This is a hands-on lab that discusses a number of concerns with developing Graphical User Interfaces applications (both for desktop and mobile), and explore various ways to improve the speed, efficiency and satisfaction of GUI development.
- Do you sometimes think that coding in Java or Objective-C is perhaps not the best way of constructing GUIs?
- Do you feel that your team should be able to develop GUI applications much faster?
- Are you frustrated with the amount of "donkey code" you are writing to implement some basic GUI features?
- Are the new team members struggling with the high learning curve of the GUI frameworks you are using?
- Are you spending more time on coding GUI behaviour than you spend on coding domain behaviour?
- Do your team find it difficult to add or modify existing features of a GUI application?
The above questions highlight some of the issues typically found when doing GUI application development.. This workshop explores a number of frameworks, tools and techniques to help us build GUI applications more effectively, in a highly interactive and hands-on way.
Visual GUI builder tools, code generators, UI DSLs: these are some of the topics we will investigate.
However, none of these have any meaning if a good foundation of UI development principles and practices is not embraced in a project. The workshop also aims to instill a number of important principles and practices that is a must for any good GUI development team.
Learning Objectives:
- UI Development Principles and Practices
- DSL (Domain Specific Languages) Introduction
- Visual Builders and GUI building Tools and where do they fit in
- Code Generators: good or bad?
- Can this all be done by Lisp?
This is meant for a technical audience, specifically developers who are involved with some form of GUI development, whether it is for desktop or mobile.
Laptops are optional

400g red kidney beans
1/2 cup dried risoni pasta (or small shell pasta )
What you do ...
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, bacon and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until soft. Add carrot, parsnip, celery and zucchini. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes.
Add stock and tomatoe puree. Stir to combine. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes or until vegetables are soft.
Stir in risoni and beans. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes or until risoni is tender. Season with salt and pepper if necessary.
I like to have my soup with some fresh, preferably crusty bread!
Enjoy! Let me know what you think.

Mission: Co-Op
Equipment: Zodiac with M60 , MK5 PBR
Data: Not exactly a short map and players should be ready for a long walk ; as water transportation is the sole means of gettin around, oh and you should probably take care of the vehicles too; they're not avaliable anywhere else but spawn. The layout of this map is pretty simple; a deep water river enclosed by 2 high cliffs; there're enemy dock facilities which doubles as PSPs. A even class blance is a must on this map, 80% of your team should be medics whilist the other 20% snipers; there's suprises as you proceed down the river and believe me when i say you'll get shot ; even with your MK19s blasting away at the enemy; they're just that good. a small team could head up the hills and try to cover the river team, because the river team will already have their hands full dealing with threats in water / slopes.
There are no comments yet. Be the first!

Boaden on the stand
The BBC's Helen Boaden was on the witness stand today as Tony Newbery makes a last-ditch attempt to force the BBC to disclose who attended its mysterious seminar on climate change in 2006 (background here). If the Information Tribunal throws his case out, it's probably the end of the line.
Andrew Orlowski of the Register was there and describes what happened here. It looks like a fait accompli:
When it came to a cross examination by Newbery, David Marks QC, the presiding tribunal judge, threw a thick protective cloak around the BBC's star witness, refusing to allow the blogger to pose many of his questions to Boaden directly. As a result, most remained answered.
"If the BBC had no record of what was said," remarked Newbery, "the first part of the Chatham House Rule doesn't apply. I can't request it. It doesn't exist."
The judge sternly reminded Newbery that any line of enquiry that allowed the identity of the attendees to be inferred should not be allowed. Marks also stepped in where he thought Boaden may not have been able to answer. Marks even intervened to prevent one line of enquiry very germane to Newbery's case: the blogger wanted to know if the attendees were there in a private or public capacity.
"It could be both," mused the judge. "I'm reluctant to allow Ms Boaden say anything about this. I doubt if she can add anything to what is a submission by you. You're under a severe warning from me not to go anywhere near the question."
[Update: Tony telephones, noting that he will be unable to report on what happened at his own blog for a few days. He's on the witness stand himself tomorrow.]

Methods and apparatus for transparent display using scattering nanoparticles
United States Patent
|May 10, 2016
|View the Complete Patent at the US Patent & Trademark Office
|Transparent displays enable many useful applications, including heads-up displays for cars and aircraft as well as displays on eyeglasses and glass windows. Unfortunately, transparent displays made of organic light-emitting diodes are typically expensive and opaque. Heads-up displays often require fixed light sources and have limited viewing angles. And transparent displays that use frequency conversion are typically energy inefficient. Conversely, the present transparent displays operate by scattering visible light from resonant nanoparticles with narrowband scattering cross sections and small absorption cross sections. More specifically, projecting an image onto a transparent screen doped with nanoparticles that selectively scatter light at the image wavelength(s) yields an image on the screen visible to an observer. Because the nanoparticles scatter light at only certain wavelengths, the screen is practically transparent under ambient light. Exemplary transparent scattering displays can be simple, inexpensive, scalable to large sizes, viewable over wide angular ranges, energy efficient, and transparent simultaneously.

Rosenzweig, Franz
Rosenzweig, Franz fränts rō´zəntsvīkh˝ [key], 1886–1929, German-Jewish philosopher, b. Kassel. As a youth he was thoroughly trained in German philosophy and, after a near conversion to Christianity, dedicated himself to Jewish scholarship. His chief work, The Star of Redemption (1921 tr. of 2d ed. 1971), begun while he was a soldier in World War I, proved him to be one of the most original of modern Jewish thinkers. He drew from Orthodox, Reform, and Zionist views and created a philosophy that greatly attracted Jewish youth. Later, with his friend Martin Buber, he translated the Hebrew Scriptures into German. Other works in English include On Jewish Learning, ed. by N. N. Glatzer (1955).
See B. Martin, comp., Great Twentieth-Century Jewish Philosophers: Shestov, Rosenzweig, Buber (1969) and Franz Rosenzweig: His Life and Thought, presented by N. N. Glatzer (3d ed. 1998) studies by L. Anckaert et al., ed. (2004) and B. Pollock (2009).
