USA Rugby TV to stream entire 2014 Emirates Airline USA Rugby College National Championship
BOULDER, Colo. – Fourteen of the nation's top rugby schools will descend upon Stanford, Calif., this weekend, May 9-11, to contest four national championships at the 2014 Emirates Airline USA Rugby College National Championships.
Steuber Rugby Stadium will be the host of the Women's Division I, Women's Division II, and Men's Division I-AA Semifinals Friday and Saturday before the respective Championship matches Saturday and Sunday.
After 20 grueling weeks of regular season rugby in Men's Division 1A and three weeks of playoff play, Saint Mary's College and Life University qualified for the National Championship match in Stanford, which will kick off Saturday, May 10, at 7:00 P.M. PT.
See the full College National Championship schedule
All 13 matches, including the three consolation matches Sunday, May 11, will be played at Steuber Rugby Stadium and streamed live – uninterrupted – in high-definition on USA Rugby TV. USA Rugby TV is available around the world for free and has previously been home to the broadcasts of the 2013 IRB Women's Nations Cup, the 2013 USA Rugby Club 7s National Championship, and the 2013 USA Rugby College 7s National Championship, garnering more than 500,000 visitors since its launch in January 2013.
USA Rugby TV is the home of the USA Rugby National Championships Series and provides fans with an updated schedule of each event, as well as a chat room to interact with fellow fans.
"Live-streaming is the future of sport," USA Rugby Collegiate Director Rich Cortez said. "The IRB streams its Sevens World Series online to the entire world and we are very pleased to be able to provide our fans and fans of rugby a medium with the ability to watch the College National Championships wherever they are."
Admission to Steuber Rugby Stadium this weekend is $10 per day, which is to be paid at the gate in cash prior to entry.

Alright, it's the weekend and I'm working but took a break to check out my new favorite website. Seriously, this made my day. How can you not appreciate pictures like this? I'm alternately fascinated and concerned for our country's future. I'm not kidding. It did make me laugh so hard I hurt, though.
Make my day
shit, that's funny. i hurt too now. jc
Hailing from a land where getting a WalMart is a HUGE deal and having actually seen people in such ridiculous get-ups, I feel like such a terrible person for LMAO at this.Yet I keep going back.Because honestly where else would you see this.
I think this one hurt me the most. I had to take a break for a few minutes.
*shudder*This is why I shop at Target.
Yeah, dude. Fat shaming, racism, misogyny, and homophobia are totally fucking hilarious.
CPP, the majority of the pictures center around the absurdity of what some people where in public and overall bizarre behavior.
Let me clarify that since it's semi-ambiguous. Do I think it's funny that a couple would wear matching outfits from the 80's? Yes. Is it odd that someone would wear full camouflage in the middle of a store? I think it is. Is it humorous that someone wouldn't even bother changing out of their pajamas before going shopping? Yes. I think it's possible to find people's behavior and choices funny without introducing fat shaming, racism, misogyny, and homophobia. I am also happy that people making racist or homophobic (for instance) statements with their clothing is something recognized as odd and inappropriate. And I enjoy a good mullet.Do I agree with every photo and comment on the website? No.
PlS has pretty well explained my sentiments.Seriously, a raccoon on some dude's head is just strange.
It would be funnier if Wal Mart wasn't the best grocery store we had in town.

We are pleased to announce the opening of our new typefoundry Mota Italic! It took many long months of coding, designing, and bureaucratic paper work, but in the end we feel like we are offering some great font families and a totally unique shopping experience.
Our first major family, Vesper, is a contemporary serif design I began in 2006-07 at the University of Reading. It has been almost fully redesigned and greatly expanded into a large, feature rich, 10 font family. These fonts are great for both text and display; check them out, they might be the perfect unique touch for your next book or identity project.
Also up for grabs is the [free] two weight family Mota Pixel. This design was originally made for the TypeShow interface, to test out our fonts online. It too has a large character set, wide language support, and many many OpenType features. Plus, you can use it with @font-face declarations!
Finally, our web font policy has been of great interest. We offer a special package of "WEB Fonts" that are specifically made for online embedding. These packages come with two seperate sets of fonts, one for offline work and another for embedding online. There is a lot to say about them, but in short, you can use our WEB Fonts for @font-face, sIFR, Cufón, Typeface,js, and Flash. They also come pre-subsetted into smaller files for faster download times and they even allow you to select lining or old-style figures for your website.
We have many updates, both for the website and fonts, planned that will be released soon. In the meantime, please check out motaitalic.com and let us know if you have any questions or comments!

The Ministers of OlÓdÙmarè continued
Orìs + ̩à-nlá is the supreme divinity of Yorubaland. As his name implies, he is the great or arch-divinity. It is sometimes said that he is the father of all the orìs + ̩à of Yorubaland and that it was he who gave each one of them the name orìs + ̩à, thus naming them after himself.Thus,the title "father" here denotes his relationship to the other divinities as well as suggests that he was the original divinity from whom at least a number of them derived. He is automatically the senior and head of them all. He is also called Qbàtálá, the name which has been variously interpreted as Qba-ti-í-ó-nla--"The king who is great"; or Qba-ti-àlà-- "King in white clothing".
According to our oral traditions, Orìs + ̩à-nlá-nlá is very ancient. He was the very first to receive a definite characterisation,1 and that will explain why he is described by some of our elders as the image or symbol of OlódÙmarè on earth. Yoruba theology also calls him the off-spring of OlódÙmarè in the sense that he derived immediately from him and that the attributes of OlódÙmarè are revealed through him. The oral traditions give much emphasis to the teaching that he takes after OlódÙmarè in many essential attributes: he is called by some of Olódùmarè's very significant appellations. For example, he is known as A-té + ̩-re + ̩re + ̩-k'áiye--"He who spreads over the whole extent of the earth"; he is called e + ̩lé + ̩dǎ--"maker", since OlódÙmarè has committed to him the creation of the physical part of man, as also the creation of earth and the arrangement of its trappings.2 He is the sculptor-divinity who has been given the prerogative to create as he chooses, so that he makes man of shapely or deformed features. The hunchback, the cripple, the albino, are regarded to be special marks of his prerogative, either signifying his displeasure at the breach of some tabu, or to show that he____________________

Ask and ya shall receive! Although BikeTexas stands for thousands of Texas cyclists, from time to time it's critical to let elected representatives and other officials know your views about a particular issue. Elected leaders pay close attention to constituent outreach. The following pointers should make your requests more effective:
Proper Salutation
The suggested greeting to use is "Dear Council Person LastName" ("Dear Commissioner LastName" in places with City Commissioners instead of Councillors) or "Dear Mayor Pro Tem LastName" if your council person is the Mayor Pro Tem.
Identify Yourself
To start, identify who you are, your occupation, and your affiliation with any relevant organizations, such as being a member of BikeTexas.
Identify the Issue
In the first paragraph, identify your issue. Be sure to identify the agenda item or resolution by name and number if you are writing in reference to a specific item that has been placed on the council agenda.
Remain Professional
A polite, friendly critique will always be more effective than a rude and insulting attack. The goal is to establish a relationship with your council member and their staff and then work towards achieving a specific goal by presenting potential solutions.
Support Your Case
Concisely state reasons in support of your position. Cite facts and include any applicable personal anecdotes. Ideally, your letter should be one page type-written, two at the most. Therefore, you need to be concise and direct.
Specify Request
Make a specific request about a single issue. Do not present a laundry list of items, but rather focus on their attention on the one pressing issue.
Keep BikeTexas in the Loop

GALVESTON, Texas -- Galveston had a record $8.4 million in peak-season tourism revenue this year in a continuing turnaround since Hurricane Ike battered the Southeast Texas island.
The Galveston County Daily-News ( http://bit.ly/QHR2S6) reported Monday that officials believe a $100,000 marketing campaign called "It's Island Time" contributed to the increase. The Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier also opened this year.
Ike made landfall in Galveston on September 2008.
The Galveston Island Convention & Visitors Bureau says peak-season revenue from April to July has been on the rise since 2009 when the city collected $5.3 million in hotel occupancy tax. That's when discussions began about networking to include city leaders, tourism officials, the Port of Galveston and the hospitality industries.
The previous tourism-related revenue record was $7.7 million in 2011.

They are guaranteed to simplify your
life and make is easier for you to hold on to yourself.
1 CUP Identify Your Values
1) Make a list of your top 10 values...love, honesty, fun, freedom,
intimacy, $$, family; whatever they happen to be.
2) Prioritize your list. Put at the top of your list those values that
are the most meaningful to your fulfillment.
3) Write your top 3 values on a sticky note.
4) Place the sticky note on calendar that you refer to when scheduling your
2 CUPS Commit only to the opportunities and events that are in
alignment with the values on your sticky note.
I know what your thinking. But Michelle...
What about those other things I value and want
Important things won't get done
If I don't do them no one else will
But, I should...
But, they will be upset, offended, hurt.
I have only one response...NOTHING ELSE MATTERS!!!
Your top 3 values will add to your life, will enrich your experiences, will
bring you new vitality and a surge of creativity that will ensure your success,
while empower you to love more deeply and give more freely.
Now that's a recipe for success.
Love yourself enough to be true to you!!!
Because you will have aligned with who you are meant to be and this is the most
loving gift you can give to yourself, your loved ones, and the world. These are the months to choose wisely, practice discernment and engage in over
the top self care so that you can be an expression of love.
Think about this with me.
Remember those times...When you over commit yourself, your kids, and over
commit to your clients,
When you said yes to invitations,
When you did things you know you did not want to do
Now ask yourself...
Were you fully present to enjoy and create meaningful connections OR
were you so tired and resentful of the loss of your freedom?
Were you able to give and receive: love, compassion and serve your
clients in a way that was truly valuable OR was your heart closed and were you
left feeling more alone, isolated and unfulfilled or upset and discontent?
Committing your time, your energy, your gifts&yourself just because you were invited, because you can't say no, and worse yet, because
you are placing more value on the requests and feelings of another person is
nothing more than a recipe for strained, depleting and unsatisfying
Follow this love recipe and enjoy meaningful connections

Ukrainian Prez: Ceasefire Is Done, 'We Will Attack'• newser.com
But rebels did not disarm, and the ceasefire was continually violated. Rebels did not comply with Poroshenko's latest push to get them to turn over key border crossings with Russia and permit international monitoring of the cease-fire. "The unique chance to put the peace plan into practice was not realized," Poroshenko said in a speech prepared for delivery to the nation.

Solar window screens or sun screens, also known as "sun shades" or "solar shades," have many unique benefits and features that make them one of our most popular window coverings for both domestic and commercial use.

Solar window screens or sun screens, also known as "sun shades" or "solar shades," have many unique benefits and features that make them one of our most popular window coverings for both domestic and commercial use.
Not to be confused with roller shades, interior solar screens are a type of window shade but they are specifically designed to combat the sun at various levels of opacity.
Below you will find a full glimpse at the numerous benefits of sun screens. You can also explore a variety of customization options for this extremely versatile treatment, such as window shade motorization. Energy efficiency, reduction of heat, and UV ray protection are a few major benefits from the sun blocking material of solar screens.
A sun screen is a roller shade that has a special woven material designed to combat the sun.
This sophisticated style of window covering allows you to view through the fabric while UV rays and solar glare is significantly reduced in the interior of the room.
Learn about what distinguishes roller shades from window sun screens in this video.
Ability to Disappear
Motorized / Alexa Compatible
This is the number one most desirable feature of the solar screen for windows.
The unique ability of the solar screen is that it brings a calming feeling-tone to any room where this mesh shade is drawn. The permeability of the woven design has the best of both worlds – protection from the sun, but without sacrificing a beautiful view!
Above all, the solar shade is like a filter for sunlight but still maintains great visibility to the outside world. This way you don't have to sacrifice the benefit of an open view, as this impression expands the feeling of spaciousness in any home or office.
In addition to this tip, there are so many strategic tactics for cooling your home with window treatments. Enjoy your outside view without the glaring, oppressive rays of sun creating stress on your eyes.
Solar shades are energy efficient to conserve resources in your home or office.
Solar shades offer users a great opportunity to use daylight harvesting and save money, especially when they are motorized.
By automating your shades, you can increase a building's heat during winter and reduce heat gain during the summer. This is done by using special sensors and timers installed in the glass of your windows with your window automation systems.
This benefit of energy efficiency is especially important in offices to control the efficiency of larger commercial buildings and make them more profitable. It's easy to control the amount of light on a timed schedule, as well as lower your AC and heating bills.
Motorization is not just for businesses, either. With the newest addition of the Aloha Shade, motorization options have become affordable for literally anyone!
What you may not know about solar shades is that the color can change it's performance values drastically.
For color and openness factor, there are many varieties to meet your specific needs for optimal protection.
First, you must decide if you want darker or lighter colors of your shade, since there are specific benefits to each. If you choose a darker color, the visibility of the outside world will increase when you are looking from the insight. If you choose a lighter colors, it will greatly increase the heat reducing abilities of this covering.
Additionally, a lighter colored fabric will be harder to see through. A darker color fabric may be more visually appealing but not be as energy efficient.
Here's where you choose how much light that you would like to let into your home.
The openness factor is the level of opacity or the percentage of light that is allowed to pass through the mesh design of the shade. This is determined by the amount of holes in relation to the percentage of the fabric.
Typical sun screens for windows range from 1% -14% openness. For example, if you have a 5% openness factor, this means that 95% of the window covering will be covered by the weave of fabric. Remember, the amount of light, heat, and view is controlled by your choice in openness factor. A fabric with 1% openness has 1% holes with a 99% fabric covering.
There are several types of fabric fascia that can be used for the top treatment on this shade. View the video above to explore customization options such as wood valances or fabric covers.
Whatever your home or office decor may be, including a top treatment on your solar screen will add that professional polish to your desired look. Something about putting that extra covering to disguise the mechanism appears very thoughtful in professional environments.
Looking for more privacy?
Layering, or combining multiple window treatments, is a must if you desire to have 100% privacy with solar screens or blackout curtains.
Here's how solar screen visibility works: what you can see outside during the day with your solar shade is what people can see into your home, or building, during the night. So just remember this – solar screens provide privacy in the day, not during the night.
As we mentioned earlier, you can combat this problem with options such as a dual roller shade. You can also add a darkening curtain or drapery over top when you need more privacy or light control.
We have used Three Blind Mice on three occasions for three different types of window coverings. We have been delighted with all of the results. Not only are the finished products exactly what we needed the quality and service were excellent. We would not hesitate to recommend them!
What a great experience working with this professional knowledgeable company.I love the end product and the team fulfilled everything they promised.

God bless Patrick White, wherever the old contrarian chose to relocate to after his earthly sojourn. It was the great Australian novelist and 1973 Nobel laureate in Literature who once famously described rugby as a game of thugs writhing in mud. It was an unfriendly dig at the English Upper Class. Rugby, with its echoes of manliness and muscular menace, its refined violence and Public School pabulum, is a game very dear to the English upper crust. Unlike football, you can take rugby out of England but you cannot take the Englishness out of rugby.
There is rugby and there is rugby. It appears that the old Australian curmudgeon spoke too soon. He should have watched the royal mud show in Rivers, Nigeria. Something new always comes out of Africa. Perhaps due to the peculiar prehistoric configuration and wiring of the Blackman's brains, it is easy to convert tragedy to comedy. In a life marked by unremitting adversity and misfortune, laughter is the best medicine and superior political therapy. The alternative is sure suicide This is why after spiritual mountebanks, professional comedians and other comic clowns are among the highest paid Nigerians.
Hip, hip, hurray! Welcome dear readers to the land of hippos and hipsters. It is called Hippotamia. It is a muddy swamp teeming with manatees, mermaids, mangrove mongoose, mammy waters, ocean going marsupials and other more menacing amphibious mammals. Here when thugs writhe in mud, they are engaged in political rugby which is a game more deadly and dangerous than the original. You can take the wrestling away from the mud wrestler but you cannot take away the mud. And when mud is thrown real hard, some of it is bound to stick.
In political rugby, the rule of engagement is that there is no rule of engagement and the golden mean is that there should be no golden mean. It is a free for all affray in which no weapon is too sacred or too profane to be pressed info urgent battle. The end will justify the mean. A legislative mace here, an official canister there to register the official presence of the cooperative and officiating police. If the law cannot be enforced, lawlessness must be enforced, leaving in the trail of anarchy broken limbs, bludgeoned heads and the inevitable overseas treatment.
It is a mystery as to why this murderous mud wrangling commands the attention of the stellar literati. Perhaps there is a muckraker in all of us. Like Patrick White, his illustrious predecessor, Wole Soyinka, the 1986 Nobel laureate, has also waded into the muddy eddy. It will be recalled that the Nobel laureate authored a play titled The Swamp Dwellers. From the vintage muddy observatory, Soyinka has now noted with characteristic caustic candour that you can take a hippopotamus out of the mud but you cannot take the mud out of the hippopotamus. It was a Soyinkaesque display of wit at its most lapidary and lacerating.
But if the Nobel laureate thought that he had all the rugby ring to himself, he must be profoundly mistaken. There was a huge mud slide and the swamp dwellers rose in fury as if stung by a swamp scorpion. Even the hippotame—or hippodame—weighed in with characteristic robustness. Not one to take a direct shot lying low, the mother of all mermaids was overheard saying: "Yeye Yoruba man with him wuruwuru wig. If him get oblokos make him come near me with him yeye grammar. I go piss for him mouth."
This was just a preliminary skirmish before the main tournament. The prize for perjury goes to internet mudslingers and other habitués of what Soyinka himself may describe as the murky madrassa of cybercreeps. Surveying the muddy melee from a safe distance snooper captured one of the alliterate writhers on Sahara asking Soyinka to go back to school to complete his PhD if he must talk. Now, now, now, asking a Nobel laureate in literature for his PhD is like asking Albert Einstein to go and fix his dodgy mathematics before he could pronounce. This is swamp-speak at its most glorious. It could get nastier.
All of which must tell us that it is a dangerous river to cross in Rivers State. The crisis in that state and its nuclear fallout are the most potent threat to the democratic process that we have seen so far. If care is not taken the entire process may slide down the muddy swamp. It is very curious that the crisis is unfurling in the presidential backyard, so to speak. Will a man set fire to his own backyard just to secure a political advantage? Jonathan must urgently review his strategy for remaining in office beyond 2015. It does not seem to be working for now.
To be sure, the ethnicization of presidential struggle is not a novel phenomenon in Nigeria. It is a symptom of a deeper and more fundamental malaise: the zero sum politics and winner takes all mindset of our political elite. It is a reflection of the fact that in Nigeria, power is sought not for national development but for primitive accumulation. This is the classic disease of a retarded political class. But as William Inge noted, a man can build for himself a throne of bayonets, whether he will be able to sit on it is another matter. Social cannibalism always leads to the real thing.
Although Jonathan is not the original brand owner, it should be noted that it is under his watch that the ethnicization of presidential politics has assumed its most dangerous and nation-threatening form. To be fair, this is partly due to the peculiar circumstances of his political ascendancy. He was the president from nowhere. Even the most riotous and raucous of his Ijaw hegemonists ought to have been taken by surprise at what seemed a divine and miraculous intervention in our body politic. What we have today is a siege mentality among Jonathan's ethnic promoters. For a hitherto minority group to insist on hanging on to the presidency at all cost without the evidence of sterling performance or even elementary competence is going to be a bridge too far.
Politics is still a game of numbers. Having secured a pan-Nigerian mandate which was fraught and tense as it was revealing of the polarization of the country along regional, religious and economic lines, Jonathan ought to have commenced a process of national healing that would have led to a solid national consensus. It is only in this atmosphere that national transformation can thrive and blossom. But the past three years have seen Mr President at his most polarizing and divisive best. Even his original enablers have fled, ominously watching from the sidelines which way the mud slide will go.
In three years, Jonathan has succeeded in alienating critical and crucial stakeholders. The dominant tendencies in the two major hegemonic blocs appear to have distanced themselves from him, leaving him with his core ethnic supporters and the traditional carrion feeders from the east. A situation in which four northern governors would visit the presidential backyard only to be stoned and mobbed bespeaks a gathering political hysteria which does not bode well for democracy. Let us not tempt fate.
Now let us get this very clear. All this would not have mattered were Jonathan to be in the process of constructing a novel and revolutionary society which involves the smashing of old altars and political shrines. But Jonathan is anything but a revolutionary. He is a traditional politician relying on traditional wheeling and dealing. Yet elementary political common sense ought to have told him that you cannot alienate vital and significant interest groups in a nation and hope to reign or rule in peace.
Jonathan should take a historic cue. The august rumblings and ominous quietude from Nigeria's traditional centres of power should tell their own story. This past week, General Abdulsalami Abubakar, the military henchman who birthed the Fourth Republic, rumbled from his Minna summit. The normally sedate and temperate Abubakar does not speak often or out of turn. But he noted tersely that the Royal Rugby in Rivers State is the gravest threat so far to democracy and the survival of the Fourth Republic. He must know what we don't know. Even in Hippotamia too much frozen mud can lead to hypothermia.

Part 2.
The following is a very simple example of a ResourceBundle subclass,
MyResources, that manages two resources (for a larger number of resources you
would probably use a Hashtable). Notice that you don't need to supply a value if
a "parent-level" ResourceBundle handles the same key with the same value (as for
the okKey below).
// default (English language, United States)
public class MyResources extends ResourceBundle {
public Object handleGetObject(String key) {
if (key.equals("okKey")) return "Ok";
if (key.equals("cancelKey")) return "Cancel";
return null;
// German language
public class MyResources_de extends MyResources {
public Object handleGetObject(String key) {
// don't need okKey, since parent level handles
if (key.equals("cancelKey")) return "Abbrechen";
return null;
You do not have to restrict yourself to using a single family of
ResourceBundles. For example, you could have a set of bundles for exception
messages, ExceptionResources (ExceptionResources_fr, ExceptionResources_de,
...), and one for widgets, WidgetResource (WidgetResources_fr,
WidgetResources_de, ...); breaking up the resources however you like.

At Stocks Green, we recognise the contribution of PE to the health and well-being of the children. We believe that an innovative, varied PE curriculum and extra-curricular opportunities have a positive influence on the concentration, attitude and academic achievement of all our children.
Our Primary School Sport's Funding will enable us to continue and extend our provision through employing additional sports professionals, entering into competitive sports competitions and training our staff to deliver in-house quality PE sessions.
What is the Sports Premium?
The government provided funding of £150 million per annum for the academic years 2013/14 and 2014/15 to provide new and substantial primary school sport funding. The funding was provided by the Department for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and saw money going directly to primary schools to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE . Each school recieved £8,000 plus an extra £5 per pupil each year for the following two years – at Stocks Green that meant around £8,440 a year.
Since then, on 28th July 2017, the Department for Education (DfE) has announced some changes to the Primary PE & Sport Premium pages on the Gov.uk website to reflect recent ministerial decisions on the allocation formula for the doubled Primary PE & Sport Premium.
The high level changes are that from September 2017 mean that we will receive £16,000 and an additional payment of £10 per pupil
The money can only be spent on sport and PE provision in schools.
We have used some of these funds, combined with funding from club subscriptions, to invest in new team sportswear for the children and coaching staff, including tracksuits branded with the school name and new football strip. This kit will be used by any and all of our teams for competitions here or away, such as swimming matches, athletics and running. The children look incredibly smart in their new kit (photos will follow) and we know they will take extra pride in representing our school.
Purpose of the funding
Schools will have to spend the sport funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but they will have the freedom to choose how they do this.
We have used the funding for:
- Membership of 'Sprint Ltd' who provide us with expert staff training, additional coaching and entry to competitions such as Indoor Athletics, Cricket and basketball.
- PE resources and storage and sports kit
- Skip2Bfit workshops for the whole school
- Tag rugby coaching
- Kidzfit workshops – whole school
- Gymnastics lessons/staff training – whole school
- Football coach – football club after school
- Transport for athletics and dance events
- New football goals – socketed
- Expert advice to evaluate our sports curriculum and provide new planning materials

Identify several resources where digital photos can be found on the Internet and used to create slide shows without actually requiring the user to shoot the digital photo.
According to Ching, Wang, Shih & Kedem (2006), integrating digital photos into a classroom would facilitate students' reflection on their classroom life and social world. Providing digital photos allows students to interact with their teachers and peers. Digital photos promote exploration and offers freedom for students to explore. Using digital photos improve students socially and personally in the classroom.

At least three youngsters have been asked to sign anti-social behaviour contracts after Kirkby Library had to be shut early due to intimidation of staff and members of the public.
A meeting of Ashfield District Council Kirkby Area Committee heard the library had to shut 20 minutes early with customers still inside to protect staff and public from the gang's anti social behaviour and intimidation.
Police have identified the main trouble makers and three of them have signed anti-social behaviour contracts (ABCs) with another in the process of being issued.
Leader of Ashfield District Council councillor Cheryl Butler said the council had issued the contracts in partnership with the police. The contracts are issued for low level anti-social behaviour and are reviewed every three months.
She said: "We will be looking at what they have done in that time and will work with the families if anything else happens."
"There was just one incident at the library - it must have been scary and they did the right thing to protect themselves. We then dealt with the situation."
Peter Gaw, chief executive of Inspire, which oversees libraries said: "Our Customer Service Standard outlines our commitment to library users, which in turn asks that our visitors are respectful and courteous towards our staff, tolerant and considerate towards our other service users as well as being considerate of the building and its resources.
"Unfortunately, we have recently had a series of incidents at Kirkby Library which we take very seriously.
"The safety of our staff and customers is our priority and we are working with local police and the community safety team, providing a security guard during vulnerable times of the day and installing CCTV."
The council meeting heard there were also problems of gangs congregating around Ellis Street and the derelict land on Pond Street causing issues for shop owners and residents.
A store worker who did not want to be identified told Chad :"We are continually having to clean graffiti of our windows and they damage our walls by jumping on them.
"They congregate after school and sit in the car park. Some of them defecate there and leave it in a filthy state.
"The other week I could smell they were smoking cannabis. "The kids could do with a youth club - there is nothing for them to do."
Independent councillor Jason Zadrozny said: "My feeling is that this is just a sticking plaster over the problem and we simply need more high-visibility people patrolling our streets. Residents deserve to feel safe in their streets, parks and town centres. The council has a legal duty to keep people safe, but also to make people feel safe. They are clearly failing in this duty."

libvirt and its GUI front-end virt-manager can create and manage VMs using different hypervisors such as KVM and Xen. By default, all the VM images created via libvirt go to /var/lib/libvirt/images directory. However, this may not be desirable in some cases. For example, the disk partition where /var/lib/libvirt/images lives may have limited free space. Or you may want to store all VM images in a specific repository for management purposes.
In fact, you can easily change the default location of the libvirt image directory, or what they call a "storage pool."
There are two ways to change the default storage pool.
Method One: Virt-Manager GUI
If you are using virt-manager GUI program, changing the default storage pool is very easy.
Go to "Edit" -> "Connection Details" in virt-manager menu GUI.
You will see the default storage pool as shown below. On the left bottom of the window, click on the cross icon, which will stop the default storage pool. Once the pool is stopped, click on the trash bin icon on the right, which will delete the pool. Note that this action will NOT remove the VM images inside the pool.
Now click on the plus icon on the far left to add a new storage pool.
Type in the name of a new storage pool (e.g., default), and choose the type of the pool. In this case, choose a "filesystem directory" type since we are simply changing a storage pool directory.
Type in the path of a new storage pool (e.g., /storage).
At this point, the new storage pool should be started, and automatically used when you create a new VM.
Method One: Virsh Command-Line
Another method to change the default storage pool directory is to use virsh command line utility which comes with libvirt package.
First, run the following command to dump XML definition of the default storage pool.
Open this XML file with a text editor, and change <path> element from /var/lib/libvirt/images to a new location.
<capacity unit='bytes'>975762788352</capacity>
<allocation unit='bytes'>530052247552</allocation>
<available unit='bytes'>445710540800</available>
Remove the current default pool.
Pool default destroyed
Now create a new storage pool based on the updated XML file.
Pool default created from pool.xml
At this point, a default pool has been changed to a new location, and is ready for use.

The party approached the castle. They had entered the valley and seen a derelict citadel in front of them. It was the obvious way to go. They were not obvious. They were the party of the Inobvious (subtle, inconspicuous or other synonymous adjectives.) The rather brilliant Wizard in the party, a 50 year old elf by the name of Elmo, with the only familiar in the party, a Raven named Mallum, had decided that said raven should check the area. The raven circled around the valley, saw something to the west and went to investigate. He came back and squawked, in a rather annoying and broken voice, "There's a castle to the west!"
There was always and inobvious route, and these… 'adventurers' were the ones destined to take it. Said 'adventurers' consisted of; the aforementioned wizard, a dwarven ranger named Skanderbeg, who could fart on command and was, ironically, the stealthiest member of the party. A cavalier whose name I forget, with his trusty animal companion, Greyskull the horse (whom the brilliant Wizard called Eyoor, after another famous donkey). The human fighter, Wonge, whose sword all difficulty 1 monsters were mildly concerned about. Two dwarven clerics, Bran 'Har and some other guy, who were not very trusting of the wizard and were reasonably sure he was of a neutral-evil alignment, and were reluctant to heal him whenever he got hurt (always, despite his ranged attacks, the melee always seemed to find him). Thesius, another fighter who was rarely mentioned or noticed, truly the most inobvious of the bunch, a feat the rest of the party would've held him in high regard for. Had they cared/noticed him. The alchemist, Sparkey, whose trigger happy nature and constant access to incendiary/explosive items meant the entire party gave him a wide berth at all times. Oh, and the inquisitor. The party of the Inobvious (or POTI). They were headed for the castle to the west, which was, according to Mallum, "kinda smallish and woody." His perception was exquisite.
"Okay, so when we get to the castle, what's the plan?" Skanderbeg, strategic as ever.
"BOOM. FIRE. EXPLOSIONS. HHAHAHAHAHAH." Sparkey's battle strategies were unchanging.
Now one of the Clerics piped up. "We should send a large party into the castle, 'peacefully' and once we've gained their trust, launch a sneak attack."
"We could also send a smaller party round the back of the castle." Wonge offered.
"That's not a bad idea."
"The sentries are facing away from the back!"
"Great!" They were mumbling amongst themselves about strategies and such when they crested a knoll and before them lay the castle. It was surrounded by a wooden palisade, about fifteen feet high made of tree trunks set no more than 6 inches apart. Inside the palisade were three sentry towers in three of the corners, two at the front, one at the back. It was obviously a permanent structure, no temporary war camps here. They made preparations while waiting for night to fall. Skanderbeg and Elmo would go round the back, as they were they had the highest sneak in the party. The rest would enter at front, with the Cavalier as leader (he had the highest diplomacy). From there, Elmo and Skander would distract the sentries with magic and arrows (which can be very distracting if they hit you in the face). Then, with the sentries distracted, the large party inside would fan out and attack any people on the ground, and, by the time any reinforcements arrived, Skander and Elmo would control the towers, and the large party inside would control the courtyard. 'T was a flawless plan.
"Nothing could possibly go wrong." Elmo proclaimed.
"You do realise that you have just totally and utterly jinxed us, right?"
"Oh, come on, I'm third level, I can't perform any effective jinxes yet."
"Not what I meant."
When night did eventually fall, the party headed for the gates, while Skander and Elmo went, round to the back.
"Do you have any rope, Elmo."
Yes, 1 coil."
"Well, give it to me."
"NO! I need it to perform rope, trick, I can cast it on any rope and then a portal into a small plane of existence appears at the top, it can support 8 people and we can use it to hide-out if things get nasty, which is rather appealing to me, since I have 14 hit points and 9 constitution."
"But If I have it, I can climb the wall, since I have 6 points in climb, and then toss it down to you, who has no points in climb. We'll reach the top much faster."
"Fine." Skanderbeg slowly reached into Elmo's bag, grabbed the rope and slipped it into his. "You'll see, you'll be scrabbling at the wall for 20 minutes until I drop the rope down, then you'll see. You'll see that I'm the brains of this operation."
As the pair approached the fortress from behind an hour before dawn, to be in position for the surprise attack, the ground shakes, and dark figures arise from it, surrounding the two adventurers.
"Don't worry, my favored school is necromancy, there's gotta be some cool spell that'll help us here." Elmo leafed through his spell book.
"Ah, here we go, necromancy school spells, I have… disrupt undead and touch of fatigue."
"We're screwed aren't we?"
"So, now might be a good job for a rope trick?" Elmo questioned
"No! I need EXP if I'm gonna get arcane archer."
"Easy for you to say, you're not a glass cannon!"
"Oh just shut up and cast disrupt undead."
"Well, are you going to cast it?"
"I think I just failed a concentration check."
"Godsdam wizard!" With that, Skanderbeg jumped at a zombie and smashed its chest open with his axe. "THAT"S HOW IT'S DONE!" And then got hit in the gut by a zombie. Meanwhile, Mallum was pecking the crap out of a zombies head while it swiped at him ineffectually.
"Hey I think I just completed a concentration che-!" and then he got hit in the head by a zombie."
"DISRUPT UNDEAD!" The spell whizzed off and smacked the zombie with a hole in his chest squarely in, what was left of, his torso.
"Skander, I'm on 3 hit points."
"Yeah, Yeah."
"Seriously, get back here Skanderbeg. Heal me or at the very least take a few hits for me, you've got armor, I don't" Skander glanced around. The zombies were closing in on them, soon they wouldn't be able to escape.
"Skander?" Elmo had seen his desperate glance at the thinning gap between the zombies. Skander took one last look at Elmo, and ran, fleeing quickly through the wall of zombies.
"SONOFFAB-! YOU COWARD! Okay, keep it together. I gotta get out a rope trick next turn. I need a concentration check of 16 to cast it.
"Come on, come on, come on… 7?!" The zombies took their turns, closing in on him slowly until only 10 feet remained between them. "Please Please Please Please! Let this concentration check succeed……. He closed his eyes, and threw the die. "17! YESYESYESYES! Thankyou nameless god of concentration checks! Now all I need to do is touch a rope and then climb it to safety." He groped around in his bag for the rope. It wasn't there. His turn was over, the zombies closed in. "SKANDERBEG!!!!!!!!!"
Elmo was on the ground, bleeding. He was at -3 hit points, he needed to stabilise. He needed a 13. He rolled the die. 7. He was at -4, he rolled. 9. He was at -5, he rolled. 13! Whew! Stable. He thought.
"Actually, no."
"Well, you needed to roll a 13 when you were at -3 points, but now you're at -5, and since the amount you need to roll to stabilise is 10 + the amount of negative hit points you have, you needed to roll a 15."

New Delhi, Nov 28 (PTI) A Delhi court today sent former MLA Rambeer Shokeen, who has been chargesheeted along with alleged gangster Neeraj Bawana and others in a case under MCOCA, to three days police custody to unearth the larger conspiracy.
Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Sumit Dass sent Shokeen to custody of Delhi Police after he was produced before the court.
The police told the court that accused was to be confronted with the other accused persons, including Bawana, arrested in the case.
Shokeen, who was declared a proclaimed offender by the court on August 26 last year, was apprehanded yesterday by the police.
In February this year, a court here had denied anticipatory bail to the accused, saying there was incriminating evidence showing he had played an active role in a crime syndicate.
The Special Cell of Delhi Police had chargesheeted 10 persons, including Neeraj and Shokeen, for alleged offences punishable under the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) provisions.
Besides Neeraj and Shokeen, the police has chargesheeted Neerajs elder brother Pankaj Sehrawat and other arrested members of the syndicate -- Sunil Rathi, Amit Malik alias Bhura, Naveen Dabas, Rahul Dabas, Naveen Hooda, Deepak Dabas and Gurpreet Singh in the case.
The police, which had named 163 persons as prosecution witnesses in the case, claimed that these accused were involved in several criminal cases. PTI UK AG ABA SC

Congratulations, Payal, I know how hard you have worked to put this all together, God Bless....ReplyDelete
Beautifully made film, Payal. And how lucky for you to have caught him when you did. What a joy this was! Full of magical art that leaps out of the page and also insights into the art establishment...loved the anecdote about Maya from Mohenjo-daro :-)ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks a lot MJ! He was so open and generous to us. Glad to know that you enjoyed the film. Please do share the link!Delete
This is quite fab! Bengali, art and children's stories- I had to see this! There are those Roald Dahl illustrations, and then there are his! I like the background sounds too! :DReplyDelete
Thanks Ritu! Early morning bustle of the Biswas household :)ReplyDelete
Wow I am doing some research on Indian Children Book Illustrations and the CBT Book Cover came up bringing back old memories. Thank You so much for compiling these together.ReplyDelete

Kaiser-Frazer Corporation was a partnership between automobile executive Joseph W. Frazer and industrialist Henry J. Kaiser. In 1947, the company acquired the automotive assets of Graham-Paige, Kaiser-Frazer was the only new US automaker to achieve success after World War II, if only for a few years.
Henry Kaiser had no automotive marketing experience while Joseph Frazer did, He was president of the Graham-Paige Corporation prior to the Second World War. Henry Kaiser was a damn the torpedoes full Speed ahead kind of guy. Joseph Frazer was a realist. As sales for K-F products dropped off in 1949 as Ford Chrysler and GM introduced a new generations of designs, Kaiser pushed for more production creating an oversupply of cars that took until mid-1950 to sell. With nothing but friction between the two, Frazer left the company in 1951, and the Frazer nameplate was dropped after a short 10,000 unit production run. In 1952 the Corporation was renamed Kaiser Motors Corporation and continued building passenger cars through 1955.
In 1953 Kaiser bought the strapped Willys-Overland company and merged the Kaiser and Willys became the Willys Motors. The decision was then made to exit the passenger car market, which was accomplished at the end of the 1955 model year. By 1956, Willys Motors was building only utility vehicles, many for export, and was turning a healthy profit.
In 1970, the Kaiser Jeep Corporation, as the company had been renamed in 1963, was sold to American Motors Corporation which continued to manufacture Jeep vehicles until AMC itself was purchased by Chrysler in 1987 for $360 million. Chrysler wanted the Jeep vehicle line and had estimated that for them to create a similar competing product and build a reputation to match would have cost in excess of $1 billion.

Synopsis: Award-winning author
Alan Bradley returns with another beguiling novel starring the
insidiously clever and unflappable eleven-year-old sleuth Flavia de
Luce. The precocious chemist with a passion for poisons uncovers a fresh
slew of misdeeds in the hamlet of Bishops Laceymysteries involving a
missing tot, a fortune-teller, and a corpse in Flavias own backyard.
had asked the old Gypsy woman to tell her fortune, but never expected
to stumble across the poor soul, bludgeoned in the wee hours in her own
caravan. Was this an act of retribution by those convinced that the
soothsayer had abducted a local child years ago? Certainly Flavia
understands the bliss of settling scores; revenge is a delightful
pastime when one has two odious older sisters. But how could this crime
be connected to the missing baby? Had it something to do with the weird
sect who met at the river to practice their secret rites? While still
pondering the possibilities, Flavia stumbles upon another corpsethat of
a notorious layabout who had been caught prowling about the de Luces
drawing room.
Pedaling Gladys, her faithful bicycle, across the
countryside in search of clues to both crimes, Flavia uncovers some odd
new twists. Most intriguing is her introduction to an elegant artist
with a very special object in her possessiona portrait that sheds light
on the biggest mystery of all: Who is Flavia?
As the red herrings pile up, Flavia must sort through clues fishy and foul to untangle dark deeds and dangerous secrets.
First Line: "You frighten me," the Gypsy said.
Random Quote: He knocked his rib cage with a clenched fist and forced a cough that, since I had done it so often myself, didn't fool me for an instant. Neither did his fake gamekeeper dialect.
Review: I love Flavia de Luce and Alan Bradley for creating her (and for having great titles). I think the primary thing I like about her is how very much she reminds me of Harriet the Spy, one of my all-time favorite characters as a kid and a book I read over and over again. Throw Harriet down in 1950'sish Britain and she'd be Flavia de Luce.
The other thing I like about this look is the way Mr. Bradley takes a fairly typical British mystery setting/theme and plays with it in lots of fun ways. Putting a precocious eleven year old in the midst of the mayhem is brilliant.
|Gypsy Caravans – Date Unknown (image source)
A Red Herring Without Mustard is the third in the series and I liked it much more than the second. The plot involving gypsies and mysteries involving old legends, religious cults, and chicanery of all kinds just really pleased me. I have loved stories about gypsies and gypsy caravans since the first time I read The Wind in the Willows and Mr. Toad bought a gypsy caravan (to hilarious purpose). Putting traveling people still roaming about the countryside in caravans is irresistible.
There are plenty of twists and turns throughout to keep the reader reading and amused. The reminders of my own childhood reading world and the eensiest touch of Agatha Christie combine to create a delightful experience!

Manuscript received August 13, 2013; final manuscript received January 17, 2014; published online March 26, 2014. Assoc. Editor: Patrick Kwon.
Carbon fiber reinforced plastics/polymers (CFRPs) offer excellent mechanical properties that lead to enhanced functional performance and, in turn, wide applications in numerous industrial fields. Post machining of CFRPs is an essential procedure that assures that the manufactured components meet their dimensional tolerances, surface quality and other functional requirements, which is currently considered an extremely difficult process due to the highly nonlinear, inhomogeneous, and abrasive nature of CFRPs. In this paper, a comprehensive literature review on machining of CFRPs is given with a focus on five main issues including conventional and unconventional hybrid processes for CFRP machining, cutting theories and thermal/mechanical response studies, numerical simulations, tool performance and tooling techniques, and economic impacts of CFRP machining. Given the similarities in the experimental and theoretical studies related to the machining of glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRPs) and other FRPs parallel insights are drawn to CFRP machining to offer additional understanding of on-going and promising attempts in CFRP machining.

The South Asian Institute of Technology and Medicine (SAITM) (Dr.Neville Fernando Teaching Hospital "NFTH") will be opened by Prime Minister D. M. Jayartane on April 5. The first private teaching hospital in the country, it comprises state-of-the-art facilities. Official Web - www.nfth.lk
Dr Neville Fernando Sri Lanka – Russia Friendship Teaching Hospital
Dr Neville Fernando Teaching Hospital (NFTH) is not, yet another private hospital in the country which charges exorbitant prices from their patients for the services provided. The hospital services are presented in such a way that it is very much affordable to the greater majority of the local population who are average or lower middle income earners, but never compromising on the service standards or the quality of medical care. In other words, it will revolutionize the private healthcare industry in Sri Lanka by offering high quality services at such low rates such as consultation of leading specialists in the country at clinics only for Rs. 100 and wards bed at Rs. 1500.
As a socially responsible corporate citizen, Dr Neville Fernando Teaching Hospital (NFTH) will reserve 20% of the operational bed capacity for the benefit of the less privileged patients with offering free beds and medical care at a concessionary rate, while charging heavily discounted subsidized rates for the medicine, lab and radiologic investigations.
As it is a Teaching Hospital, it will be highly methodical and use the standard practices. Patients of NFTH will receive the best of healthcare because as a Teaching Hospital it will have the services of eminent professors, senior consultants, as well as the best of paramedical professionals. They will be available fulltime in the faculty and hospital.
The more affluent patients have the option of obtaining the luxury services upon request, such as air-conditioned luxury rooms with attached bath and all standard room facilities of international standards.
The hospital is located at a patient friendly green environment, yet can be reached within half an hour's drive from Colombo. Once commissioned this would be the largest private hospital with 1002 beds and 1 st private Teaching Hospital in Sri Lanka.
+ Largest private healthcare facility provider in Sri Lanka with 1002 wards beds
when fully functional.
+ High quality service at an unbelievable price
- Consultation of well-known specialists in Sri Lanka at a fee only Rs. 100 at
'Specialist Clinic Service' (it is a must to carry a doctor (GP) referral for this service)
- Cubical bed at well maintained ward only at Rs. 1000 per day including meals
+ As it is a Teaching Hospital;
- Highly methodical & standard practices
- Services of eminent professors and well-known Sri Lankan specialists on fulltime basis
- In clinics, apart from the consultants, you will also be examined by the medical students
+ Away from city hassle, patient friendly clean and green environment

|Homework rules
|Code of honour
2003-02-20: For information on Pseudorandom Generators, see Chapter 5 and sections on LFSRs in Chapter 6 in Handbook of Applied Cryptography (HAC) (link below). For Zero-Knowledge and identification, see Chapter 10 in HAC. I have handed out material from the previous edition of Stinson (Chapter 11) on Secret Sharing. Copies can be found outside the student office at Nada.
Also, note that for homework set 3 one of the tasks is to implement a program that solves the discrete log problem, not just to find out the discrete log of your personal number.
2003-02-13: Homework set 3 posted below. The problems posted as a preview on 2003-02-10 have been removed from the web page as they are available in the complete homework set. Good luck!
2003-02-10: Parts of Homework set 3 available below.
2003-02-10: The fastest AES (12.9 MB/s) was handed in by Mattias de Zalenski and the fastest DES (746 kB/s) was handed in by Patrick Zeits.
2003-02-04: The file rsa3 used in homework set 2 has been fixed.
There is a misprint in Stinson in algorithm 5.11
(Wiener's algorithm). The call to Euclidian Algorithm should
have the parameters reversed, i.e.,
Euclidian Algorithm(b,n)
and the first line of the for-loop should not be executed for j=1 since c1=0 in this case.
2003-01-29: Since it has been requested by more than one person, I have added a couple of sample files for aes and des below. Also: problem set 2 now posted below.
2003-01-22: Homework set 1 -- the seven second time limit for Des and Aes is hereby extended to 10 seconds.
And here are the instructions for how to turn in your DES or AES program.
2003-01-21: Handed out Matsui's article on linear cryptanalysis of DES.
2003-01-16: The Suns bunch11--bunch20 can be used if you want to run programs for a while. You can telnet or ssh to them and use nohup and nice (and maybe kauth) to start batch jobs and have them print results to file while you are busy doing other things. However, I doubt that you will need to use them during the first homework set.
2003-01-15: First homework set handed out. Link on this page.
2003-01-09: The links above should work now.
