Yaaaaas! - by Team Girlfriend
Jai Waetford may have found fame on Australian talent show X Factor, but the pop singer isn't afraid to set his sights high as he announces he's relocating to the US to work on his next album.
Since his time on the reality TV show, Waetford has gone on to release numerous EPs and has spent the past year touring Europe and Asia, supporting huge pop acts like Selena Gomez and Little Mix.
The 18-year-old star has been splitting his time between LA and Sydney, but while speaking to MacArthur Chronicle he confirmed that he is heading to the US and work on a full-length album that he hopes to release in 2018.
Waetford's latest EP Drunk Together was released earlier this year.

How Do You Measure Up at the University of Utah? Calculate Your Chances of Getting In with this free tool from Cappex. Discussion of the University of Utah's Admissions Standards U of U, the University of Utah, has moderately selective admissions. Roughly one in every five applicants will not get in, and admitted students tend to have grades and test scores that are average or better. In the graph above, the blue and green dots represent accepted students. The majority of successful applicants had "B" or higher grade point averages, SAT scores of about 1000 or higher, and ACT composite scores of 20 or above. Many admitted students have grades up in the "A" range. Note that there are a few red dots (rejected students) and yellow dots (waitlisted students) hidden behind the green and blue in the middle of the graph. A few students with grades and test scores that were on target for the University of Utah did not get in. Note also that some students were accepted with test scores and grades a little below the norm. This is because U of U does a holistic review of applications. Strong grades in challenging courses are the most important part of the application, but the admissions process is based on more than grades and test scores. The admissions officers will look at an applicant's extracurricular involvement including athletics, community service, and clubs. The university also takes into consideration a student's background such as familial responsibilities and challenging circumstances. Finally, U of U values diversity and may give special consideration to students from underrepresented groups.

Mystery substance unlikely to be radioactive, says chemical expert
The reported decontamination procedure points away from a radioactive substance, the ex-Army chemical weapons chief said.
The mystery substance which struck down Sergei Skripal and his daughter is unlikely to be radioactive and could be a biologicial toxin such as ricin, according to a chemical expert.
The 66-year-old former Russian colonel and his daughter Yulia, 33, are fighting for their lives in hospital as scientists race to determine the substance they have been exposed to.
Reports questioned whether the suspected poison was radioactive, such as the polonium used to kill Russian dissident Alexander Litvinenko, a nerve agent or a toxin.
But Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, a former commander of the Army's chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear regiment, said reports of the incident pointed away from radiation poisoning.
If you were going to be poisoned anywhere in the world you would want to be near Porton Down. Hamish de Bretton-Gordon
Referring to the comments made by one official to BBC's Newsnight that the pair were being treated for "symptoms rather than causes", Mr De Bretton-Gordon said that was "quite significant".
"It's obviously some sort of poisonous substance," he said.
"I don't think it's polonium – the incubation period is too long and the decontamination that's been reported is not the kind you would do for a radioactive isotope.
"If Porton Down are saying they are treating symptoms rather than causes they are doing palliative care.
"If it was a nerve agent they would be given an antidote, which leads me to believe it is probably not a nerve agent.
"Porton Down have no doubt taken blood samples and they should know by now what it is.
"Toxins like ricin – there's no antidote for that. If people are poisoned with ricin or abrin you treat the symptoms."
Ricin has been used in assassinations before, notably in September 1978, when Bulgarian dissident Georgi Markov was killed in London using a poison-loaded umbrella.
The murder involved a minuscule dose of ricin, which is produced naturally by the castor bean plant.
But Mr de Bretton-Gordon said weaponising ricin was a complex process that would "probably need a professional laboratory to do it properly".
"Ricin can kill you very quickly – the longer they survive the better chance they have got.
"Poison does not get worse, you either die or you survive."
Ricin was easier to get hold of and could be planted in food or drink, Mr de Bretton-Gordon said.
He added the use of nerve agents such as Sarin or VX, which was used to kill Kim Jong Un's half-brother Kim Jong Nam, would likely have killed the pair quickly, while reports of thallium, a highly toxic odourless and tasteless heavy metal, were also "possible" but would require a relatively large dose which was an "imprecise science".
And he said: "If you were going to be poisoned anywhere in the world you would want to be near Porton Down."
Mr de Bretton-Gordon said the facility, around eight miles from Salisbury, was the "leading toxicology lab in the world" which hold the supplies for the military.
"They have all the counter measures," he said.

The shameful truth is this. We live in a classist society now.
Women and men in same-sex relationships have been granted the freedom to marry, but those freedoms are under assault. They are being challenged in the courts, in state legislatures, by private citizens, at every level in our society.
If those retrogressive forces get their way, they would deprive homosexual couples the assurance that all heterosexual couples enjoy, and expect, simply because they are married. At the most critical moments of their lives, when they are sick or dying, or when tragedy suddenly strikes, they would deprive American citizens of the right to visit their loved ones in hospital rooms, protection in court, and the right to make decisions on behalf of their spouse.
We live in a classist society right now.
It is shameful.
The division between classes is different than that which was between the patrician and plebian, the commoner and lord, the freeperson and the slave. The markers of classism in our society are less obvious than they once were. We do not mark our class by the color of our clothes, by who is entitled to wear purple or don the top hat, by who is allowed to learn to read and write, or vote. The markers of classism in our society today are different, but no less distinct, and no less defiant of reason to uphold it.
Classism in our society is not codified in law, it is upheld by cultural norms, and goes beyond the present discussion on the freedom to marry. Classism in American is promoted by the ever shrinking European American majority as means of dividing and oppressing any group of citizens in the minority; by religion, by language, by ethnicity, by the color of their skin and by their sexuality.
As Americans, it is our duty to resist the temptation toward these old habits of bigotry. Whatever troubles the institution of marriage is having among heterosexual couples; whether it is a rising divorce rate, marital infidelity, the increasingly public exposure of spousal abuse, or simply the fact that fewer opposite-sex couples are entering into marriage; whatever social forces caused these troubles, the existence of these troubles is no reason to fear the marriage of same-sex couples.
Same-sex couples around the world who are seeking the right to marry, do so because they ardently believe that the institution of marriage is a good in and of itself. In America they fervently strive to preserve this right for themselves, a right that all of their heterosexual peers posses, and give no thought at all to whether they might be allowed to be married, or not. For same-sex couples in America, it may prove to be merely a privilege, one that can be granted or revoked at the will of a simple majority on the Supreme Court of the United States

Three years ago today, we lost our Chocolate Lab, Coco, after a brief illness. I still miss him deeply, every single day. After this long, I thought I would have been mended, but I still can't look at his scrapbook without melting into a puddle of tears, without that ache in my heart that only surfaces when I think too much or too long about him. I have his picture on my fridge as if he is still around, under my feet or snoozing on the couch. There are other constant reminders of him…the hardwood floors that bear scratches from his nails, his collar that I keep in my top drawer, even my cookbooks that he shredded one day when he was a puppy.
The Man and I have for years had a (nearly) nightly ritual of eating ice cream before bed. Back when Coco was still around, we would clink our spoons on the bowl when we were finished eating, as a signal to Coco that it was his turn to lick the bowl. Even now, I find myself clinking, and then realizing. Perhaps that is the hardest part–the forgetting and then the remembering.
I miss you something awful Coco. I'm afraid I always will.

City officials in Sun Valley have circled the date Monday, Aug. 20, on their calendars. That's the day they expect to receive a forensic audit that was ordered in the wake of City Hall allegations of misconduct and missing public documents.
This morning's Idaho Mountain Express reports that the audit, overseen by Boise-based law firm Moffatt Thomas, was initially to be completed by June 30.
"You find one thing that leads to another and so on," Sun Valley Mayor Dewayne Briscoe told the Mountain Express. "It takes time to get to the bottom of it all."
The cost of the audit, according to records obtained by the Mountain Express, has already topped $100,000.
The City of Sun Valley has been steeped in controversy, including the terminations of its city administrator, tort-claim settlements paid to the city clerk and treasurer, and the city's fire chief being placed on administrative leave.

Heat host Carter and Raptors
Miami, FL (Sports Network) – The Toronto Raptors go for their third straight
win tonight when they head to Miami to take on the Heat at AmericanAirlines
Vince Carter converted a fade-away jumper with 12.5 seconds to go to lift
Toronto to an 87-86 win over Orlando on Friday at TD Waterhouse Centre.
Carter finished with 20 points and eight assists for the Raptors, who won
their second straight game despite wasting a 14-point lead in the fourth
quarter. Chris Bosh delivered 16 points and eight rebounds in the win.
Antonio Davis and Alvin Williams each added 15 points for Toronto in the win.
The Raptors are 3-5 on the road this season.
The Heat fell to Atlanta, 95-83, at Philips Arena on Friday.
Eddie Jones poured in a team-high 28 points, while Lamar Odom contributed 15
for the Heat, who lost for the fourth time in five games despite a strong
performance in the fourth quarter.
Miami forward Tyrone Hill (neck) missed Friday's game and is questionable for
tonight's contest.
Miami is 3-2 as the host.
In 2002-03, Miami won all four contests with the Raptors, winning twice in
front of its home crowd and twice at Toronto.
Overall, these two teams have split the last 10 meetings.
Toronto has lost two straight and three of its last four at Miami.

Before you can effectively write using the English language, or even analyze how others use writing effectively, you need to be familiar with the basic parts and components of the English language. I know grammar isn't your favorite subject to study and learn (hey, it isn't my favorite either), BUT knowing and being able to identify these smaller component of your own language will allow you to write more effectively and assess and improve your own writing as the year progresses.
This week we will be examining how to correctly diagram sentences with noun clauses.
A noun clause is dependent clause that acts as a noun! This means they can be subjects, direct objects, indirect objects, objects of prepositions, or predicate nominatives.
Broccoli is fine with me.
Broccoli is a noun as the subject of the sentence.
Whatever you want is fine with me.
Whatever you want is the noun clause, serving as the subject of this sentence.
IMPORTANT – Noun Clauses do not modify anything, making them different from adverb and adjective clauses.
Noun clauses can be introduced with the following words: that, if whether, who, whom, which, what, when, where, how, why, whoever, whenever, whatever, however, whichever, whomever. Be sure to note the italicized words – these are also used for adjective clauses, so pay attention!
Does your mom know where you are going?
First, identify the noun clause. Ask yourself, what role does it play – the subject, direct object, ect?
Then diagram the independent clause.
Next, diagram the noun clause about the role is plays in the sentence (above the subject, or direct object, or indirect object, ect). Then, attach it to the independent cause with a pedestal.
Now practice with the following sentences.
- Where the striped sock has gone is an unsolved mystery.
- I wonder how I lost my car keys at the amusement park.
- My mom knew where I lost my sock because she found it underneath the dryer.
- Now I'm stranded at the park, and I'll leave with whomever will give me a ride.
- Wherever we are going will be wonderful.

Few acts manage to cause such a stir with their first 12" as OUTLINES did with Just A Lil' Lovin' (SK045). This track earned them a universal hit which has just kept on growing in popularity even though the initial release had to wait two years due to sample clearance.
Expectations were high for the follow up release, not least of all because such members of the crème de la crème of international DJs as GILES PETERSON, LAURENT GARNIER, KING BRITT and MR. SCRUFF were all singing the praise for the track – and it's no wonder with such a groovy number…
Listen To The Drums Pt. 1 (SK121) was indeed a worthy follow up. The OUTLINES original, with its swinging vibe and afro percussion in the best French club music tradition, was accompanied with a JAZZANOVA remix which effectively stripped the vocals down to a hymnic minimum and instead places more weight on the strength of the synthesizers.
Listen To The Drums Pt. 2 continues this success story with a further release. The JAZZANOVA remix can again be found here, this time in an edited version by DIXON. Der JAZZANOVA-Remix findet sich hier noch einmal in einer Edit-Version von DIXON (who is currently setting the standard in all things house with his Berlin club night Innercity and the label Innervisions). His rework condenses the hypnotic elements of the JAZZANOVA mix and does away with the vocals all together – whoever has gazed out the window of DIXON's club on the twelfth floor of a tower block over Alexanderplatz at night will know, this mix has universal appeal and isn't just going to work great on that floor. In all its intensity, the CHRISTIAN PROMMER`S DRUMLESSON (FAUNA FLASH, TRÜBY TRIO, VOOM:VOOM) mix is on a similar. He pushes the tempo up and brings in an impressive rolling afro feeling which is typical for many PROMMER mixes.

"Palden Choetso also known as Choesang, a 34-year-old Buddhist nun from Dragkar Choeling Nunnery, Tawu county, eastern Tibet, staged a self-immolation protest today at 12.pm in the same area where a Tibetan monk, Phuntsok Norbu has self-immolated." said the report.
"She shouted ''Freedom in Tibet,'' ''Long live H.H the Dalai Lama,'' and ''Let the Dalai Lama return to Tibet'' before she self-immolated near Namgyal Choeten, a huge stupa in Tawu County." Choetso is also the second Tibetan woman from the eastern region of Tibet to self-immolate in protest against Chinese atrocities against the Tibetan people inside occupied Tibet.
Sources said, she has succumbed while committing the self-less act and her body was taken away to nearby Nyatso monastery by the witnesses. It is also reported that Chinese security forces have already surrounded the monastery in an attempt to suppress the information.
"Shortly after the self-immolation, many police and armed military personals arrived, placing heavy restrictions on the area around Nyatso monastery," it added. The current situation in Tawu town remained tense, with raising fears of clashes between Tibetans and armed Chinese troops.
Choetso is from Drocho dzong in Kham Tawu. Her father's name is Joney and her mother's name is Kolen. A total of eleven Tibetans have self-immolated within Tibet in protest against Chinese rule and continued repression in the Himalayan region.
A Global campaign started from November 2nd, labeled 'Enough!', including mass prayers, rallies and candlelight vigils, are currently organised by thousands of Tibetans and supporters in over 60 countries worldwide, in a fierce empathy and solidarity with the people of Tibet who have long suffered under the brutal fist of a Communist Chinese regime.

R: Hey guys, we are back. And we are here to talk about "title tags" and "metadescriptions." Fun. Not a very exciting topic, but essential, nonetheless.
K: Absolutely. The title tag and the metadescription form the cornerstone of, what we call, "on site SEO," which means making changes to your actual site that are gonna help you out in terms of ranking in the search engines.
R: Yeah. And the most important thing about the title tag and the metadescription is that you can look at it like an ad. It's really like an ad that is showing up in Google's search results.
So, you can rank number 1 for a big term, but if your title tag and your metadescription suck, and they don't look like it actually pertains to what the person is searching for, then they're going to skip over your result and they're going to click on the second one or the third one.
K: Right. So the title tag is actually the text that shows in the link on the Google search result page. And the metadescription is actually the text that shows under the link, typically. Google sometimes will change it and will show something random that you didn't ask for. But the metadescription is what you're giving Google to use in that spot, if they want to.
R: If the keyword that they're searching for is in the metadescription.
So, if you're trying to rank for a specific keyword, you want to make sure that your metadescription, your ad, contains that keyword at least once. You can do it twice, probably, if you want to.
Yeah, that's the important thing. You have to think of it almost like an Adwords ad. Almost like one of the ads that show up on the side of Google, that you would be paying for, because every time that somebody sees that, you want them to be drawn in.
If you're ranking number 3, but you have a title tag and a description that is just fascinating to people, that they just need to know, like, what is going on, then they're gonna click on it. And that's one of the other factors that Google actually uses, is your click through rate on a page. So, it actually helps you to rank higher when your title tag and your metadescription are closely related to the topic and really draw people into clicking on it.
We found that a really fascinating title tag, with like a question mark at the end of it, or something that draws people in to click, it really helps your page actually move up in the rankings.
K: Yeah, definitely. So let's get into the mechanics of the title tag and the metadescription.
So first of all, these are actual tags that go on your page. So, if you don't know how to edit an HTML page yourself, you can typically do these things directly through Wordpress, or through whatever your content platform is. Somewhere on the back-end there's usually an option to set the title of the post and set the description.
The title tag has a length limit of around 70 characters. You can certainly make it longer, but the search engines will clip the end of it, which you probably don't want.
R: Yeah. And the metadescription has a length limit of somewhere around 155 characters. It's different for some of the different search engines, but probably the best rule of thumb right now is to go after a 155, and no longer than that.
And yeah, I mean, just make them interesting. Make them call out to people. Make people fascinated by whatever you're saying in there, and you should be good.
K: Yeah, and try to include your main keyword in the title tag, and if you can consider including it at least once, perhaps in a different form in the metadescription. So if you're using it in the singular in the title, try it in the plural in the description, or vice versa. Or try using a shortened form. So, if you've got the word 'hosting,' you might want to throw the word 'host' in there.
R: Yeah. Think that's about it.
K: Well, that's title tags and metadescriptions.
R: Boom.

give a little, get a lot
For me the highlights among Sydney's neighbourhood festivals are Surry Hills and Newtown. A few Saturdays ago Surry Hills Festival engulfed Prince Alfred Park, and last Sunday perfect weather graced Newtown Festival as it jam-packed Camperdown Memorial Rest Park.
Newtown was the front runner in the vibe stakes… in the past Surry Hills was a contender but this year, at least while I was there, it purred rather than rocked. We arrived and left both festivals early in the day to avoid the crowds, impacting not at all at Surry Hills which hadn't remotely filled up by the time I left just after lunch. On the other hand Newtown was heaving by the time we left and there were hoards still heading that way at 2pm as we walked home.
From a front entry a street behind Newtown's King St, courtesy of a mere few gold coins each, we were uplifted and swept along by a melange of music and people. Wandering and browsing, stopping for a snack, listening to bands on the green, the going was reasonably good up until midday when we escaped to a corner near the Writers' Tent for a bite of lunch, before going in to see Warren Brown, Sydney's Daily Telegraph cartoonist, and author of Frances Birtles.
When we emerged, we were swamped. The festival had morphed into a moving mass of bodies. We made our way back through and bought a hemp satchel for the G.O. so we no longer need to share mine purchased there a couple of years back.
While the G.O. had a smoke break in a far corner, I attempted to re-enter the melee but quickly emerged defeated by the crowd. We decided to call it a day, and left via a back street only to meet head on, the afternoon shift.
Two notes re Newtown Festival, which encompass also the philosophies of Surry Hills Festival:
"The Newtown Festival is organized by Newtown Neighbourhood Centre, and for more than 30 years the centre has given the festival to its community as a free event [entry via donation*]. The festival is a showcase of all things Newtown with huge crowds gathering each year for a day of community celebration. The Festival is an important event in the Newtown Neighbourhood Centre's calendar with ALL monies raised by the Festival returned to the Centre to provide community support services to the local community. Newtown Neighbourhood Centre supports people through community action and provision of services to address their need, focusing on the disadvantaged and vulnerable members in the community. The centre provides services to the aged, people with disabilities, people with mental illness, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds and people on low incomes. "
"Newtown Festival 2012 is going Bottled Water Free – making a stand against the commercialisation of water and massive plastic bottle waste. There will be no sale of bottled water by stalls or suppliers – just refill stations serving FREE [truly free*] tap water."
Given the content of the festival was predominantly people, opportunities to take photos were circumscribed, but to give a feel of the day…
[* Notes are mine.]

Your photos make it look very inviting, especially with the warm weather, I can understand why it filled up so quick.
What a brilliant idea regarding water bottles, far kinder on the environment, I do think there is a total overuse of bottled water in the countries where tap water is just as good.
Thank you 🙂 We only buy water when we're really disorganised… we have 2 x Cheeki 600 ml steel bottles, I have a 'deflatable' plastic bottle, and the G.O. has a Cheeki litre bottle. We gave the Cheeki's as Christmas gifts last year, and a few this year 🙂
Sounds like two fun festivals, although I suspect Newtown would have been too crowded for my liking! Thanks for taking us with you! 🙂 PS. I love the Cheeki bottles!
Newtown was quite good until early afternoon – the morning had a good balance of vibe vs crowd, and we really enjoyed the Writers' Tent and a whole range of different performers. Sadly we were too late for the dog show… we got sidetracked at the 'old wares' shop across from the fire station on Australia Street.
Missed this (as usual). Looks a fun day out, although I would have disappeared when it got busy. Some nice photos there of people relaxing and just enjoying life. I don't think I ever went to an Aus festival.
Thanks… we made a quick escape when it got too busy… I hadn't been to a festival anything like this until I moved back to Sydney to the inner west 9-ish years ago. I'm fan because there is something for everyone, and they raise much needed funds for the neighbourhood centres.
I luuuuvvvv a festival. This one looks great! Relaxed crowd, sunny weather, interesting looking stalls – all stars aliened. The bottled water issue also hit a note! It is incredible how this industry has penetrated the market over the last 20 years. Back in the late seventies and early eighties down here it would have been unthinkable that water would be sold in bottles. But when disorganised, I have to admit that I am pleased that my kids have a water option added to the fizzy drink brigade. But am trying to make sure that we always have a bottle of good old tap on hand when we go out anywhere. Distracted mom doesn't always get it right though!
Of course if the bottled water option wasn't avaliable distracted mom's might be more motivated to pack better!
Oros has become our 'water staple' and gets thrown into most bottles. Fruit juice is just rediculously expensive and from what i understand has a similar sugar content – so no more of that. I find now that if I have the choice between the two I go for the cordial – most likely I've developed an addiction to the chemicals in it 😉 The two litre bottles that it comes in go to the local village where they are used for selling parafin and sour milk . Our formal recycling systems in this country leave much to be desired – so we go informal as much as we can! Have a good sunday.
I took no water to the festival – didn't even think of it, but they had stands with disposable cups for us disorganised people.

I can connect to TWRP (3.2.3-0) with
adb but
fastboot devices does not list any and
fastboot continue (while my phone is booted into TWRP) only prints:
$ fastboot continue
< waiting for any device >
I can rule out a driver problem since I have used
fastboot successfully with the same combination of phone, cable and PC.
You are confused about
fastboot. It is not another
adb. There is no fastboot server (in TWRP) which accepts connections. Rather it is a step/mode in the boot process of Android. Think of it as GRUB. You need to reboot your phone while the
fastboot command is waiting for your device.

Top 10 Bruins regular season games of 2010-11: Jan 13, 2011
by Anthony Travalgia http://www.thehubofhockey.net
The hub of hockey will be taking a look at the top 10 Bruins regular season games of 2010-11, followed by the top ten playoff games of the 2010-11 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Today we take a look at No. 9: January 13, 2011 Philadelphia Flyers vs. Boston Bruins.
The Bruins defeated the Flyers 7-5 behind Steve Kampfer's third period game-winning-goal. It was a game that saw 12 goals, five lead changes and one crazy third period.
Down 3-2 entering the third, the Bruins used two goals by Mark Recchi, and Michael Ryder in 1:48 seconds to take a 4-3 lead. Five minutes later the Flyers would use two goals in less than a minute by Danny Briere and Sean O' Donnell to regain the lead.
Brad Marchand would tie the game up again midway through the third, and rookie defensemen Steve Kampfer would score the game-winner with 1:14 left in regulation on an absolute snipe from a low-scoring angle.
Bruins Goal Scorers: Patrice Bergeron, Gregory Campbell, Zdeno Chara, Kampfer, Marchand, Recchi, Michael Ryder.
Flyers Goal Scorers: Briere, Jeff Carter, Scott Hartnell, O' Donnell, Nikolay Zherdev.
Game Notes:
With his second period goal, Patrice Bergeron extended his point streak to five games.
Ryder's goal in the third was his first in eight games.
Mark Recchi had a goal and an assist for his seventh multiple-point-game of the year.
Steven Kampfer's game-winning-goal was the first of his career.
Bruins Center Patrice Bergeron won 16 of 24 face-offs.
Flyers defensemen Braydon Coburn finished the game a plus-3.
Flyers defensemen Matt Carle, and forward Danny Briere finished the game at minus-3

Brianna Martin is a passionate, sincere, kind-hearted young lady. She has a hand for writing and a special love for photography and although she was not meant to be placed in journalism she is interested and devoted for what she has. Bri has a passion for music and enjoys listening to EDM music whenever she gets the chance. Brianna takes schooling very seriously and puts her best foot forward every single day, she excels in writing and reading but she asks to never be given a mathematical equation, it's like an alien language to her. Speaking of aliens if Brianna had a choice to live in another world she would love to be part of Pandora the world in the avatar because she describes it as "remarkably, outstandingly, and stunningly hot" then she added in "plus the blue people are beautiful."
Brianna is sixteen and became a student at South Broward High as a sophomore last year. Brianna met many different people who all touched her heart in different ways, one person who she grew close with is her boyfriend, David Ryabov. If Bri was asked to become a different person for an entire day she would switch with David to know what he thinks and how he feels, and to know what it's like to be a guy. Brianna is a very nice and polite girl but, she thinks she gets annoyed to easy and hopes to work on being a calmer person. After talking with Brianna and getting to know her on a more personal level I found to many unique things about her and noticed how great of a person she is.

I had a terrific time in Las Vegas for the annual National Association of Broadcasters (NAB), Radio and Television News Directors Association (RTNDA) and Broadcast Education Association (BEA) conferences (April 13th-20th, 2008). I even managed to get to the mic' to ask a question at the opening session of the RTNDA on Sunday afternoon, having only landed a couple of hours earlier and after from an 11 hour flight and an eight hour time difference! It's a tough job...
Still, there is always my favourite 'hang-out', Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville.
Joining me on the outside terrace was Deborah Wilson of the University of Lincoln.
The following day saw the formal opening of the NAB/RTNDA Conventions - with due solemnity, national anthem and stirring patriotic video, plus prayers, and a eulogy by NAB President David Rehr on the continuing importance and uniqueness of radio and launching a $20 million campaign for the medium. This was followed by a a barnstorming speech by Tim Robbins.You can hear a Podcast as Debbie and I reflected on this and the broader implications by going to my (er) Podcast page.
There were many other excellent sessions over the following couple of days - including an Educator's Breakfast with leading journalists and 'anchors' on the fascinating U.S. election and the Radio Luncheon, including the induction into the NAB Hall of Fame of legendary Top 40 DJ Larry Lujack.
The day of this posting is the centenary of the birth of the still influential and revered U.S. broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow and this October sees the 50th anniversary of his famous "wires in the box" speech to the RTNDA, portrayed in the brilliant movie, Good Night, and Good Luck . There was a special session debating the continued influence and relevance of Murrow and his work and asking "What Would Murrow Do?"
We then moved onto the 'crossover day' the Wednesday when the educators and students arrive for the BEA and the industry types wind down - this provides an excellent opportunity for the students to network and to have group sessions and one - to - one feedback with news editors and the like from across the country. The BEA is an excellent mixture of scholarly papers/presentations/competitions, industry presentations, exchanging good practice in education and training, Hands-On workshops, and a competition/festival for 'electronic media' students and faculties. I managed to chat to those who had won one of the Radio and Audio Media faculty Audio Production Awards. Pictured right here is the winner - Derek Jones of Rowan University, New Jersey - with his 'Pro Football Preview Show'. You can hear my chat with him and the deservedly proud students again on my Podcast page. You can also listen to the excellent and enviable university station .
On the Thursday night we had the BEA Awards Ceremony, which included a presentation for the marvellous Michael Keith of Boston College, who won a BEA Distinguished Scholar Award - and about time too!
To business on Friday, to the formalities and meetings for the BEA International Division, of which I am now incoming Chair, having left my 'Vice' behind in Las Vegas! This included the presentation of the (cash!) awards to the winners of the International Division's annual Paper Competition. First placed in the Debut section was Gerald Akindes of Ohio University.
Second-placed was Chung Joo Chung of State University of New York-Buffalo. Presenting the cheques in both cases was outgoing International Division Chair, Grace Provenzano of San Francisco State University.
In the afternoon, I was part of a panel called 'Beyond Ratings: How are International Radio Stations Assessing their Target Audiences in a Fragmenting Media Environment?' Pictured here are my fellow panellists (from left) Deborah Wilson, University of Lincoln, UK; Chris Priestman, Staffordshire University, UK; Romie Singh, ABC Ulwazi, Johannesburg, South Africa; me; Brian Pauling, Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology, New Zealand.
More excellent sessions and the post-Convention Chair's meeting on Saturday, then time for some fun - dinner and chat with Chris Priestman, plus Frank Chorba of Washburn University (second from left), Kansas and Michael Brown of University of Wyoming (right). Here we are (or at least here are the tops of our bodies!) at Caesar's Palace. Again, more audio with these guys via my Podcast page.
As ever, lots of brilliant contacts, stimulating discussion, wonderful spring desert climate (just love sitting out of an evening in shirt-sleeves and watched the dawn and dusk
most days over the city and the hills of south Nevada)
and lots of fond memories.
The networking didn't even stop on the return flight - I was seated next to David Anderson, sports' writer with the Daily Mirror who had been in 'Vegas for the week covering some boxing match! He'd also had a close encounter with the likes of Al Pacino, Catherine Z-J, and various other A-list celeb's who'd flown into into 'Vegas for the occasion and, like him, stayed at the Planet Hollywood Hotel. We spent an enjoyable few hours jetting over the Atlantic talking about his 'sporting life'.

I am running 2 monitors (Dell U2414H @ 1920 x 1080 60Hz) on my ThinkPad USB 3.0 Ultra Dock. I also have my Yoga 900 monitor on and the desktop is extended to all monitors. I have a regular issue where the Displayport monitor turns off for 1-3 seconds then comes back on for no apparent reason. I have searched the internet and the only similar issue I have found suggestes the dock is under powered to run 2 monitors however that does not seem consistent with what other people are doing. There is no particular application that causes the issue.
Can anyone help? It's very frustrating waiting for the monitors to come back on.
Anyone? Where are all the Lenovo experts?

Some useful questions to ask yourself before moving abroad.
So your living the dream & have decided to move abroad. Well you've come to the right place as here is a list of some great questions, tips & info you'll need before you finally pack up the rest of your belongings & start to live your dream in your new destination.
Whatever your motivation for this life changing decision you have made, your certainly facing an exciting new challenge in your life, which if your not carefull you may fall flat on your face at the first few steps. But dont worry, help is at hand. Traveling Warrior is here to save the day.
You will need some methodical planning & organisation to make sure everything goes smoothly. Intergrating into a foreign country is always enriching & mind broadening but many people underestimate the depth & extent of the differences that can occur. Like culture, education, attitudes, etiquette, religion & administrative structure to name just a few.
Here is a quick list of the first few things you should think about.
* Whats the legal requirements for residency.
* Is the cost of living within your means.
* Financial planning. Can you really afford the type of property your buying or renting.
* Can you speak or learn the language.
* Is it possible to work straight away in your new country.
* Is high quality health care available & at what cost. Always have a full medical check & needles you may need before you go.
* Relocation cost, your travel & your worldly goods.
* Visa requirements.
* Have you copied all your documents.
* All upfront costs including agency fees. Is it worth what your paying.
* Schools for your kids, is there good quality education.
* Dont forget to tell your bank & clear all other legal matters before you leave.
And thats just for starters. Make sure you check theses off your list before moving on.
Sometimes its best to rent a property for a while before you think about buying anywhere on impulse. You'll be to get the feel for the place before making rash decisions. Why not book a couples of weeks somewhere close to your chosen destination to really suss the place out first.
Whatever you decide on, I would suggest looking back on these short questions & tips before you jump in head first. These are the first things you should think about & the best advice I could give with the above is to research, research, research before you commit & once you've done that your ready to go, Lucky you!
For all you that are seriously considering moving abroad. Good luck & I wish you the best. Congrats on living the dream.

Ninth Grade Success
Our Programs
Dropout Prevention
Every year in Oregon, some 9,000 students do not complete high school. They will earn an average of $10,000 less per year than their peers with a diploma, and face steep unemployment rates (12.4 percent for ages 16-24; 20 percent for ages 16-19). Sadly, our state remains third to last in ensuring our students walk in a cap and gown. However, groundbreaking research over the last dozen years offers the chance for us to turn these harsh realities around.
We now know a student who is on-track to graduate by the end of their freshman year (defined as having accrued six credits and not having received more than one semester F in a core subject like English, math or science) is four times more likely to graduate than their off-track peers. By identifying vulnerable students and using targeted student supports like additional instruction time, tutoring and counseling during the 9th grade, pilot schools for the Freshman Success programs in Chicago boosted graduation rates by 8 to 20 percentage points within four years.

Roofing torch Raptor Cat. No. 1029Reference 1029
Discover this outstanding new product by Express. See and judge by yourself!
Lightweight with less than 500g, to avoid repetitive strain injury, the roofing torch Raptor is quick and easy to set up with its interchangeable burners of 70 Cat. No. 1070 and 90 kW Cat. No. 1090 at 58 psi (provided) and its quick fitting for connecting the torch in just one click!
Raptor, the Express Roofing Torch, has a safety handle. What does it mean?
The roofing torch is turned off when the roofer releases the trigger. So, there are no more residual flames, which are often the reason why fires start on construction sites!
And turning the torch off means stopping the gas consumption… which implies saving money and reducing CO2 emissions!
The torch's noise levels are very low.
Switched on with its piezo ignition, the flame technology from Raptor helps to keep the temperature of the burner moderate.
Ultra powerful thanks to its targeted flame, this new product is specially dedicated to sills/ledges mode.

We are a small team of parents, parishioners and teachers who work to promote social and fundraising events, to raise additional funds for our school and church. This is a great opportunity for you to be involved with your child's school and to really make a difference, so if you've got an opinion or any ideas, we would love to hear them. We meet on the first Wednesday of every month and it would be great if you would join us - there is no obligation to attend every meeting/event - we are just grateful for any support you can offer.
Over the years , thanks to the generosity of our parents and parishioners we have been able to purchase shutters in the Foundation Stage outdoor area, IT equipment, various music lessons, including Samba drumming, keyboard and gospel singer, refurbish cloakrooms and purchase outdoor classrooms and climbing equipment to name a few! Our latest fundraising anabled us to refurbish the ICT suite and purchase 32 new computers, so that every child has access to one in a lesson. We have also paid for new signage at all entrances to the school.
Committee Members:
Chair – Jo Norris
Vice Chair – Claire Ball
Secretary – Jo Clarke
Treasurer – Rachel Hampson
