our story began in 1993 with a boxy, black nylon handbag called sam. we wanted something utilitarian and timeless--a bag that could go with everything from jeans to a cocktail dress. sam did, and women and fashion editors alike fell for its fresh, simple shape. our sam medium satchel in spade flower-embossed leather is true to the original silhouette and features a soft faux suede lining. we added a removable wristlet pouch that fits into the interior slip pocket and an optional crossbody strap with jewelry-like hardware (texting was not a thing in the '90s), along with tiny feet on the bottom to keep it pristine for years to come. the foil logo is an iconic finishing touch.

Hey guys!
´ve loved this series. I think it´s amazing from the beginning `til the end. I am pretty sure that when I do a post about my favourite series this one will be included there.
But that´s enough rambling, let´s go for the review. This is going to be a spoiler free review but as it's the third book in the series you will find spoilers regarding The Young Elites and The Rose Society, books 1 and book 2 respectively. In case you haven´t read those yet you can check my reviews by clicking on the titles of those books.
The Midnight Star stars a few months after the events of The Rose Society. Adelina is now queen of Kenettra and she is trying to conquer the rest of the world. However, Violetta still missing and her illuminations are going worse. Might it be true what Rafaelle thought? Can it be that the powers of the Elites are the death of them?
This book was incredible from the very first page until the last of it. Seriously I think this is one of the best conclusions to a trilogy that I have ever read. And that´s saying a lot because I read too much.
The Midnight star was everything I needed and it´s incredible if think of it. There is a very different plot in each of the book in the trilogy but still everything it´s connected.
The writing style was magnificent. I really enjoyed reading this book thanks to it. As the book takes several points of view you get the chance to know all the main characters and some of the secondary characters by heart. I think the author did a terrific job cause throughout the writing we get to know these characters.
The characters are very well portrayed. In this case we get to see the end of the arc of these characters and in some cases the development they have been through is amazing. Some of them started as mere children and end up as adults. I mean at the end you feel bad for the good guys (remember that Adelina is a villain) and still you feel bad about the bad guys.
The plot was amazing during all the trilogy. All the plot twist came in the right moments. Being each of the books a plot twist by itself.
Finally, I have to make a quick mention to the little tale at the end of the book that explains the title. It was so beautiful.
All I have to say is: thank you, Marie Lu for writing this series. I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars because, it was really entertaining on its own but it was, as I´ve said before, the perfect conclusion for The Young Elites trilogy.
I would like to hear your thoughts on the series. Leave a comment down below.
See you all next Wednesday.

You Can Soon Pay Traffic Fines With A Credit Card
It is not as difficult or risky as the idea may seem in theory. Traffic fines are given out all the time, most of the time legitimately. Those who are fined and rightly so are then left with several options…
- It will take a while or more to travel (fuel expense) to the police station or apt area to pay off that fine.
- If there is traffic while going and coming, well, pooh on you.
- Then you have the 'circumstance hurdle'. What if something crucial came up and you left that payment to last minute and, you'd have guessed it, missed paying the fine? You are in default with that extra penalty payment added to your fine and waiting for you to waste time and expense to travel and pay it.
Now, what would happen if credit cards came on the scene? You will pay it then and there and be on your way; both you and the policeman/policewoman who caught you. There are so many people in India (duh) that it gets very annoying when situations arise with waiting lists, queues, and long-whatevers. Credit can solve your woes with a swipe, literally.
- Mumbai and Hyderabad police are already talking about implementing measures to introduce credit fine payments on the fly. You make a mistake, are caught, fined, pay with your card, and be on your way.
- Ahmedabad is fast catching on, with ideas of Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) machines helping produce challans.
- All this is still in the pipeline and there is a very high chance that the credit-fine-pay system will come into effect.
The electronics being used need tenders to help release them for official use; this is soon going to land on all the right tables in government. A senior traffic department official is even on record saying, "There will be major changes in implementation and management of traffic rules in a short time. One of them will be introducing PDA machines."
It is therefore not an idea of 'if' but 'when' the idea will be made official. Worried that the police will take advantage of this system to place wrongful blame on you? Photographs will be taken of the traffic rule violation (street and/or signal cameras, etc.) and posted directly to the traffic department's online portal. If they made a mistake the officials will pay you, so in a way this could plausibly be a good thing.
Daydreams aside, the seriousness of traffic-related problems is nothing short of astounding.
- 2012 saw 12 lakh incidents of traffic rule violations; maybe people were panicking about it being the Mayan-prophesied year for the end of the world and wanted to do something 'naughty' for a change.
- Then came 2015; it just went by, in case you're wondering which year it is. As of the November count for last year, a whopping 29 lakh traffic rule violations is sufficient reason to put one's foot down; not on the pedal, mind you.
The government, to be honest, is secretly smiling. They earned a nice 17 crores or more from traffic fines in 2015 alone. With credit card usage, those fines will actually fall, because more people will be caught and more can be fined in a single day. People will see that their money is almost instantly being wasted; a psychological sense of their predicament will grip their senses.
According to a traffic officer, ""Sometimes commuters claim they have no cash. In such cases they will be able to pay fines by swiping cards. If they have no cards, the traffic department official on duty will enter his details in the machine and give him a challan."
You can use that challan to pay online via net banking and stay within the time-frame. They are probably thinking of an app now to 'encourage' on-the-spot 3g-payment.
More immediate awareness of the dangers, less chance of repeats, safer cities and roads, less money for government officials to steal and smile, less money for hard-working though hasty citizens to lose and weep, and all's well that ends well.

text: I have (finally) checked in the DOM code into the anonymous CVS repository. Some random notes: ================== * I am definitely not claiming completeness. There are objects and sections of code that have never been executed yet. But it is possible to build a little DOM tree. Wide string support isn't in there, and won't be until Python supports it. * Attributes in the IDL DOM definition are implemented as methods, prefixed with get_. For example, to retrieve the childNodes attribute, you call .get_childNodes() . This is not an optimal solution. Ideally it would be as simple as accessing .childNodes, but this faces some problems. First, the low-level tree of elements is implemented as a tree of _nodeData instances, with no circular references. Element, Text, etc. instances are then implemented as proxies for the corresponding _nodeData instance. This provides two useful features: 1) If there are several proxies for a given _nodeData, changes are instantly visible to all of the proxies. 2) As Ken McLeod suggested, this should avoid circular references, and, therefore, memory leaks. (I haven't actually verified that there are no leaks, though.) However, this also means that just setting up static childNodes attributes would break property 1. So you'd have to write __getattr__/__setattr__ functions. I'm worried that this would exact too great a performance penalty. Thoughts? * You can add extended interfaces and still remain compliant with the Recommendation. Therefore, feel free to suggest other useful things. I've added a few convenient aliases: the DOM spec specifies get_nodeName() and get_nodeValue(), so I've added get_name() and get_value(). We can add other alises to fix other annoyances. * Not all the stuff in the dom/ subdirectory has been fixed to match the current DOM interfaces. walker.py, writer.py, builder.py, and sax_builder.py have been quickly patched up, but they haven't been tested much. * Following the responses to my query about preserving compatibility, there's no attempt to preserve compatibility with the earlier DOM code at all. * There's no attempt yet at representing DTD information. Some degree of this must be done, however, in order to handle default attribute values. (If an attribute of an element has a default value, then you can override its value by assigning to it; if you then delete that attribute, the default value springs back.) * How should we linearise a DOM tree? Currently the __str__ method sort of does this; however, if the text is '>', should str(TextNode) return '>' or '>'? It's probably a better idea to have __repr__ convert nodes to a helpful description of the object (for debugging), and __str__ will return node.get_nodeData() for some node types such as Element and Comment; other nodes would simply have __str__ the same as __repr__. A third method could then linearise a node and its descendants; this would also allow adding some method arguments to control whether the XML produced is pretty-printed, indentation parameters, etc. Or, we can keep this in another class, as it is now; I'd prefer to have it be available in the core, though. Where do we go now? =================== * I hope that people will grab the latest CVS snapshot, and try the code out, reporting bugs and non-compliant points. Bonus points for providing a patch. * In the meantime, I'm going to work on adding docstrings to the code, implement the few missing things, fix any reported bugs, and begin work on a DOM test suite (which is going to be a sizable job). * Once the DOM code has been shaken down for a while, it'll be time for a 0.5 release. If no one tries the DOM code, the 0.5 release may be delayed for quite a while, so please try it out. Oh, yes; some sample code... from xml.dom import core doc = core.createDocument() html = doc.createElement('html') html.setAttribute('attr', 'value') head = doc.createElement('head') title = doc.createElement('title') title.appendChild( doc.createTextNode("Title goes here") ) body = doc.createElement('body') body.setAttribute('background', '#ffffff') comment = doc.createComment("Comment between head and body") doc.appendChild(html) html.appendChild(head) head.appendChild(title) html.appendChild(body) print doc This outputs: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE XXX> <title>Title goes here</title> (No DTD info yet, remember.) -- A.M. Kuchling http://starship.skyport.net/crew/amk/ When a man tells you that he got rich through hard work, ask him *whose*? -- Don Marquis

St. George Will Not Need to Raise Taxes
Carr, Riggs and Ingram, LLC (CPAs and Advisors) ("CRI"), the 22nd largest public accounting firm in America and the largest in the southern United States, concluded in a publicly released report that the City of St. George will operate with a budget surplus in excess of $11.4 million annually. The firm's report disproves prior reports that indicated a tax increase was necessary to run the city.
In contrast to the report by Faulk and Winkler, CRI partner C. Donald Wheat CPA, CCIFP, said on Wednesday, "Our conservative view of revenues available and expenses required to operate the City clearly indicate a tax increase is not necessary".
Mr. Wheat, CPA, CCIFP went on to say, "After careful evaluation of the revenue generated by the City, primarily sales tax, and the cost to run a modern, competitively contracted form of government, we can conservatively estimate a budget surplus in excess of $9 million dollars for the City of St. George." Mr. Wheat, CPA, CCIFP added, "Any negative economic impact of this incorporation on the City/Parish Government of Baton Rouge can be greatly reduced with sound financial management and planning from East Baton Rouge Parish during the transitional phase post incorporation, which is likely to take several years."
Lionel Rainey III, spokesperson for the City of St. George stated, "The goal of the City of St. George has always been to create a vibrant, transparent city that is responsive to the needs of the community while being responsible with the taxpayer dollars." Mr. Rainey continued, "We have stated from day one that we would not have to raise taxes to run a modern, competitively contracted form of government. We are pleased to have that verified by a public accounting firm with the stature of CRI. We reject any notion or intentional misinformation presented to the public to the contrary." Rainey ended with "The creation of a new, growing city will be an enormous benefit for the entire metro-area. Just imagine what a the creation of a new, growing city with great schools would do for this parish. Those who wish to stop this do not have the regions well being in mind."
- No need to increase taxes in the City of St. George.
A. St. George
Based on our assumptions included in the preceding analysis, the proposed city of St. George would be financially viable with an estimated budget surplus of $11.4 million (17% of Budgeted General Fund Revenues). NO NEED FOR TAX INCREASE!
Revenues are budgeted at $65.5 million, and expenditures are budgeted at $54 million, including $4 million of discretionary additional police expenditures.
B. Baton Rouge City‐Parish (Consolidated Government) – ("Baton Rouge")
Based on our assumptions included in the preceding analysis, the negative change for Baton Rouge's budget would be approximately $17 million. This would create an operating deficit in the General Fund of about $14 million, which is approximately 6% of total Baton Rouge General Fund revenues.
There is a difference between the 2013 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) General Fund "change in fund balance" ($8.5 million) versus the budget information used. This 2013 actual information was used rather than the CAFR because it includes a more detailed breakdown and also breaks out City and Parish (unincorporated) information. If the CAFR surplus is correct then the effect of the incorporation of St. George would be to create a general fund deficit for Baton Rouge of only approximately $9 million.
The incorporation of St. George would result in a manageable General Fund operating deficit of $14 million or 6% of General Fund revenues to the budget of the consolidated Government of East Baton Rouge. Such amount should not result in an increase in taxes and could be minimized during the incorporation transition period, which could take two to three years, by normal employee attrition and retirement, and/or a reduction in the scope and related costs of vendor/professional contracts.

Brides and grooms wanting to arrive in style to their wedding have never had it so good! These days there is a wide and varied choice of transport for the happy couple.
It is worth considering the style and scope of your wedding before making your final choice. Your mode of transport should ideally fit in with your wedding theme.
However, it is up to you, and although many couples like to arrive in traditional style, there is no limit to the choices that are available to you. For larger, more formal occasions, there are usually at least two cars required.
One car may take the bride and her father to the church, while the other will take the bride's mother and the bridesmaids. When the ceremony is over, the first car then takes the couple to the reception while the other may take the bride's parents and bridesmaids.
There are a number of excellent limousine, Bentley and vintage car services available and many couples opt for these.
Popular choices are Mercedes,Bentley, Rolls Royce and Daimler, although the choice of classy chassis on offer these days is positively bewildering! Most firms will provide a uniformed chauffeur, champagne for the bride and groom, and flowers and ribbons to decorate the cars.
If you want to make a real splash on your wedding day, you can always arrive by helicopter! It certainly cuts out the risk of traffic jams!
However, bear in mind beforehand that you will need a suitable area for landing and the permission of the person on whose property this area may encroach! Why not go for an olde worlde romantic mode of transport and choose a horse and carriage.
After all, they say 'Love and Marriage' go together like one! For transportation of wedding guests, a coach or some other suitable mode of transport is worth thinking about.
It not only gets people together, thereby breaking the ice, it also ensures that those who choose to toast the bride and groom in hearty fashion get home safe and sound without having to worry about leaving a car behind them.
Whatever you choose, remember to checkout what is on offer from the companies you contact so that you can be sure you are getting everything you are looking for.
Book well ahead and then relax, secure in the knowledge that getting there and getting home is no problem.

Many of the conditions that a chiropractor treats come from the problems associated with subluxation: a minor misalignment of the segment of the spine (vertebrae) causing an irritation to a nerve with a loss of normal function. Subluxation can interrupt communication from the brain to any cell, tissue or organ in the body. When there are blockages along the route from the body to the brain due to structural misalignment, the brain does not receive all of the required information needed to command the body.
Subluxations are caused by any stress (physical, mental or chemical) the person cannot adapt to. Subluxations result in the organ tissues, muscles and more losing their normal function. Subluxations cause a lowered resistance to disease. The purpose of chiropractic is to correct the subluxation and restore proper nerve flow.
At the Stouffville Health Centre, we assess each patient and develops a tailored treatment plan for the individual. The method that we use is a non-chemical, non-invasive treatment for correcting disorganization within the central nervous system.
This method encompasses a new and exciting medical development called body integration, which includes increasing the body's energy flow by stimulating acupressure points, reorganizing the nervous system by realigning the body's structural components, and craniosacral manipulation to relieve pressure on the brain.
Accompanying treatment puts an emphasis on nutrition, specific exercises to stimulate brain integration, and the existence of a supportive environment at home and school. We state that after neurological reorganization, the brain can function without interference, allowing many patients to experience rapid and dramatic improvement.
Our expert has travelled North America researching and studying with other colleagues committed to lifestyle enhancements for his patients. Call Stouffville Health Centre to book your appointment with Us today.

The Regent Theatre is a 2,162 seat theatre in Melbourne's East End Theatre District, Australia. It is listed by the National Trust of Australia and is on the Victorian Heritage Register.[1]
When first opened on Collins Street in 15 March 1929 as the flagship Melbourne theatre for Francis W. Thring's Regent franchise (later sold to Hoyts), the theatre had 3,250 seats, was equipped with a Wurlitzer organ and was the second largest theatre to the State Theatre. It also had a ballroom, the Plaza, in the basement.
The cinema was gutted by a fire on 29 April 1945 which destroyed both the auditorium and organ. The reconstructed Regent opened on 19 December 1947, including a new organ, making it one of the last picture palaces to be built in the country.
By the 1960s, persistent rumours of the theatre's closure (and of the Plaza Theatre in the basement) forced proposals for it to be split into two cinemas. Ultimately, this was not to be, the theatre being replaced by the Hoyts Cinema Centre in Bourke Street. The Regent Plaza Theatre is cited as one of the few cinemas adapted for Cinerama outside of North America.
The Regent was located on the site reserved for the Melbourne City Council City Square project and the council had announced intentions to acquire and demolish many of the buildings on the block from 1966.
On 1 July 1970, Hoyts shut the doors of the Regent for the last time. The South Yarra Regent closed the same night and Ballarat location soon followed suit. The Plaza closed in November of that year. In December, 1970, an auction was held at the theatre where everything that was not bolted down was auctioned off, raising a few thousand dollars.
In response to the closure and clouds over the building's future, a "Save the Regent" committee was formed led by president Loris Webster was formed to preserve the unoccupied building and prevent its demolition by the council.
In 1974 the National Trust declined to list the theatre, claiming it was not of significance (somewhat ironically years later after threats to the building had ceased, the Trust successfully nominated the Regent and Plaza Theatres to the Victorian Heritage Register). In response to the National Trust's stance Lord Mayor Alan Douglas Whalley demanded that the Regent be demolished, presenting a report headed by Sir Roy Grounds to quell the conservationists and claiming that the Regent was not worthy of preservation in declaring that it was "not the Colosseum".[2] The council argued that the long blank side wall of the Regent would compromise architects abilities to create grand visions for the site.
Save The Regent presented a petition of 1,800 signatures to the City Council in May 1975.
Lord Mayor Ron Walker supported his predecessor. However Norm Gallagher helped to place green ban and black bans on the building.[3]
In 1977, Victorian premier Rupert Hamer stepped in to prevent demolition of the Regent by publicly declaring it a landmark and throwing official support for the retention of the building by passing legislation for its protection and offering up to $2 million in interest free loans from the state to restore and maintain it.[4]
Over time, Melbourne's Regent had become the last remaining fully intact theatre of the Regent picture palace franchise in Australia. The Regent in Sydney was demolished in 1988 and the Regent Theatre in Brisbane had its interiors substantially altered in 1978 (after demolition in 2013 only the foyer remains). The Ballarat Regent Theatre was modified to become a multi-cinema complex developed in the 1990s. The cinema in Melbourne was the only one to be used as a performing arts venue, though the earlier Victory Theatre (1921) in suburban St Kilda was converted to Regent standards in 1928 and still stands as a live theatre (The National). (In New Zealand the Regent Theatre, Dunedin was adapted for the performing arts in the 1970s, still functions as a cinema and retains its original 1928 interiors.)
The Melbourne building lay derelict for 26 years. Many suggestions were made during this time as to the Regent's future including demolition, redevelopment as a carpark and even as a poker machine venue. Sadly, much of the Plaza theatre's interior was gutted to make way for the City Square project, with only the ceiling remaining as an original item. However, from photos supplied by a member of the Save The Regent Theatre Committee, Ian Williams, the interior was reconstructed to its original glory.
Entrepreneur David Marinner earmarked the Regent for restoration when he established a revival movement for classical performing arts theatres in Melbourne during 1991 as part of a strategy to create a monopoly and promote the city as a performing arts capital. In a deal with Cr David Nolte Chair of the Arts and Culture Committee at the Melbourne City Council, Marriner proposed to purchase the adjacent City Square site for development of the multi-storey Westin Hotel and apartments on the condition that some of the money go towards restoring the theatre. The redevelopment, which was undertaken by commercial builder Hansen Yuncken, took 3 years from September 1993 to its final reopening gala on 17 August 1996. The Plaza Theatre was also fully and magnificently restored to its original ballroom format.
The exterior of the Regent is near identical to the now-demolished Sydney Regent theatre and is Renaissance Revival in style. The interiors are of a Rococo style.
The Regent Theatre reopened on 26 October 1996 with a production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Sunset Boulevard.
The theatre is mostly used for large-scale musicals. Over the years, the Regent has seen many live shows, including:
- 1996 - Sunset Boulevard (musical)
- 1997 - Fiddler on the Roof (musical)
- 1998 - Show Boat (musical)

>>>full teams
MARTINEZ, Ga. - The Georgia College & State University baseball squad put three players on the Peach Belt Conference (PBC) Baseball All-Academic Teams, the conference office announced. Senior outfielder Danny McCorkell (Wentzville, Mo.) led the Bobcats as a first-team selection.
McCorkell landed a first-team slot, with junior outfielder Sean Harrell (Martinez, Ga.) on the second team and senior catcher Pete Paris (Scranton, Pa.) taking home third-team honors.
Owning the top GPA on the Georgia College baseball team, McCorkell put together a 3.50 average in health education. On the field, he hit .405 in 51 games, swatting two home runs with 19 RBI. He also stole seven bases and scored 23 runs.
Harrell posted a 3.25 GPA in biology. The centerfielder hit .350 with seven home runs and 41 RBI as a mainstay near the top of the Bobcat order. A second-team All-PBC pick as well, he scored a team-best 51 times, also stealing a team-high 29 bases.
Paris owns a 3.22 GPA in business administration, while hitting .328 with a team-high nine home runs. He drove in 42, scored 32 times, and gave up just 19 stolen bases in 30 attempts.
The team is part of a new season-long program recognizing the outstanding accomplishments of PBC student-athletes in the classroom as well as on the field. To be eligible for the All-Academic team, a student-athlete must 1) participate in at least half of his/her team's events and be either a starter or significant contributor; 2) achieved a 3.20 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) and 3) completed at least one full academic year at his or her current institution. The Peach Belt Conference Sports Information Directors oversee and select the teams.
The Bobcats were 37-19 in the 2009 campaign, the second under head coach Tom Carty. Georgia College finished third in the PBC, making their third trip to the NCAA Tournament in the last four seasons. The Bobcats wound up the season with 154 stolen bases, tying the school record set in 1985.

Practicum: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 UPDATE – Post-discussion postPosted: November 30, 2011 Filed under: practicum, Uncategorized 2 Comments
I hope my presentation was interesting for everyone; I really enjoyed doing my research and analyzing it for the class. Looking over our discussion questions, I felt I should elaborate on one of the topics.
– Does the online aspect of the game make it more violent? Would you let your kids play Call of Duty?
The class was somewhat mixed about this question, and there are a few different ideas at work here. First, the human element that online gaming provides. Because a player "kills" another player, the violence seems to be realer than most video games, but this quality is very subjective. Second, the idea of the techno panic. I had overlooked this argument, and its certainly worth noting. Often times, gaming is demonized by the media (like the story I brought up in class), and not given a fair turn. Is that happening here? Is Call of Duty training snipers or simply improving our dexterity? I'm leaning towards the latter, but the class should continue the discussion.
Remix PresentationPosted: November 30, 2011 Filed under: practicum, practicum presentation 1 Comment
Hey everyone! I am giving my presentation today. I am going to talk a bit about remixes and why people make them. I am also going to talk about the tools I used to make my remixes. I am showing two video mash-ups that I made during my presentation so I hope that everyone can make it.
Here are some links to the work:
Don't worry if you don't get a chance to see them before my presentation, just try and keep in mind the question of whether or not the work is transformative and what kind of copyright issues may arise if I wanted to distribute these works as you watch.
Practicum: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 UPDATE – Discussion QuestionsPosted: November 30, 2011 Filed under: practicum, Uncategorized Leave a comment
I'm presenting tomorrow, and to start a discussion I wanted to pose a few questions:
— Are online games a legitimate form of social interaction?
— Does the online aspect of the game make it more violent (you're killing a real person's avatar)? Would you let your kids play Call of Duty?
— What's the future of online gaming?
Practicum: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 UPDATEPosted: November 29, 2011 Filed under: practicum, Uncategorized Leave a comment
Since winter has come along, it has been easy to log hours playing Call of Duty. The online gameplay is great. I've gotten much better at the game, and two or three times I've placed in the top three. So many of the players are different ages and from different countries, it is very interesting. I am now a level 25, and I have unlocked a good percentage of the unlockable items. I find that my favorite online game mode is free-for-fall, the non-cooperative gameplay, it is much faster paced. The team death match mode requires a lot of patience, and players often hide and shoot with sniper rifles. I much prefer an assault rifle or sub-machine gun. My roommate also plays on the PlayStation Network, and we have been able to play in games together. While we could work together, we end up just trying to kill each other. Many hours in, I'm still not bored with the gameplay, its all online so it is always different and new.
Practicum: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 – UPDATEPosted: November 29, 2011 Filed under: practicum Leave a comment
Unfortunately the wikipedia page for Call of Duty 3 is locked to unregistered IP addressees, so I am unable to contribute to the posting. I'll share my additions here instead. The third installment of the game added new game modes, and the wikipedia posting doesn't fully explain one of them. "Kill Confirmed", its called; a player receive points for killing an enemy and picking up their dog tags. This element adds a lot of strategy to the gameplay. Players can leave the tags on the ground and stand by them in order to draw enemies into an ambush, for instance. The game mode also rewards its players with a lot of points, so they progress quicker in the game. These facts are definitely worth adding to the wikipedia page, and referenced in this online article: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/119/1192230p1.html
Remix Production 5Posted: November 29, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a comment
I think that one important thing to point out about remixes is that they come in many forms. I was considering the "everything is a remix" idea and I think that it is true to a large extent. Youtube and Vimeo are full of thousands of remixes, whether they be photos someone posted with their favorite songs, DJ remixes, fan art, or mashups. Watching the Daily Show and Colbert Report, you can see how often photoshopped pictures of cultural icons are used to accompany the punchlines. I think this speaks to the fact that remixes are made for many different reasons.
The Constitution originally called for copyrights to promote the progress of science and the useful arts. It offered a 14 year period of copyright and an optional renewal. Todays copyright laws are a term of death + 50 years for natural authors. I think that this is hardly conducive to promoting progress with these kind of term extensions. The rise of digital technology and the ability to share media so easily has undermined the effort of strict copyright laws and has demonstrated that there are significant upsides to the free-flow of ideas and free expression. However, there is a balance that must be achieved between allowing free expression and outright piracy. Current laws treat users the same and do not do a good enough job to distinguish between the two.
Presentation tomorrow!Posted: November 29, 2011 Filed under: practicum presentation Leave a comment
My presentation tomorrow is on media sharing services, and I've chosen to join Instagram and Vimeo. Instagram is definitely the simplest way to share memories the exact instant you experience them! I love this app because it is so user friendly even my parents will understand how to use it. I'm having a little more difficulty navigating through Vimeo, but it is still a fairly basic website to share , upload, and explore videos. These websites are used as alternatives to others because they are more specialized and can provide higher quality feature. You'll have to listen in class tomorrow to find out more about them!
As for now, I was just wondering
With the presence of so many social networking websites and media sharing outlets, do you think it is necessary to have specialized websites for just videos and photographs? In your opinion what is the advantage of media sharing sites like Instagram and Vimeo as opposed to just uploading your videos and pictures to Facebook or Twitter?

Darkness is one of the most common conversations I have with inquiring families and in my workshops. There are a lot of misconceptions around how dark it should to be for sleep. It's believed that some think too dark during the day will continue the day and night confusion, causing worse sleep. I can reassure you, if your child is older than 6 weeks of age, this is no longer a concern. When your child isn't sleeping well during the day and/or night, it isn't because it's too dark – instead they likely their room is too light and … Read More
Winter Napping Blues
If I would take the time to conduct a little research I swear my findings would prove that my thought is correct: well-rested children tend to skip more naps during the winter months than any other time of the year. This study would be based on children who are already great sleepers, sleeping consolidated nights of 10-12 hours and taking great naps during the day. Yet come the cold, slower and indoor winter months, there are days where you lay your toddler down for a nap with zero issues and they decide to play, talk and move around for the … Read More
Four Tips to Surviving Daylight Savings Time

Breeze into Daylight Savings
I love the fall! Cool, crisp mornings, changing colors, a consistent routine with school and work – there's just something in the air that is different. You tend to slow down a bit and enjoy. Life is peaceful. With this season change and transition into the winter months, we experience Daylight Savings. I'll be honest, like many parents, daylight savings is something I typically despise. The transition of losing an hour of sleep and adjusting your circadian rhythms is exhausting and disruptive. Yet this year, this year I'm actually looking forward to it. I know! Call me crazy, but I'm … Read More
Bedtime & Books; The perfect ending to a great day
Recently I was asked about my thoughts regarding reading to a child before bedtime. The concern was that reading would stimulate the mind too much and lead to poor or delayed sleep. The concern came about through an article on the internet. This isn't that surprising considering all the contradicting information out there; about sleep training, breastfeeding, immunizations, how to feed your child and the list goes on and on. You name it, you can find arguments for any side. It's confusing. It's exhausting. I'm here to share my philosophy about reading at bedtime: read, READ, ReAd! Bedtime and books … Read More

Generation "Y" has a fundamental belief that they should never settle for second best. They want to start at the top of the pay scale and they believe they should have everything their parents have, almost immediately after they leave home.

Imagine the horror of leaving the nest without a mature, functional pair of wings!

A raft of quangos are believed to be seeking PR help as the Conservative Party threatens a cull of 'unelected bodies'.
Tory leader David Cameron has pledged to cut the number of quangos to save money and boost accountability should the Tories be voted into power in the next general election.
Since his announcement last week, it has come to light that bodies such as ConstructionSkills, Learn Direct and the Learning and Skills Council are seeking agency support in the run-up to the election.
ConstructionSkills, the sector skills agency for the construction industry, is seeking an agency to work on stakeholder engagement. It is not known how this will affect its existing agency Fishburn Hedges. The quango said it was evaluating responses to its Pre-Qualification Questionnaire.
Agency sources told PRWeek Learn Direct and the Learning and Skills Council were also on the hunt for PR and marketing support. The Learning and Skills Council confirmed it was seeking agency help, but it would not provide details. Learn Direct could not be reached for comment.
One agency MD told PRWeek: 'There have been a lot of briefs out from quangos recently. My sense is it's all about saying, "Look at us, we do a good job". It's about raising their profile and demonstrating their value for money because of concerns that there will be a cull.'
Quangos - semi-public bodies with devolved power and financial support from the government - employ more than 90,000 people in the UK.
Cameron claimed he would cull the 790 non-elected quangos that spend nearly £43bn a year, and singled out Ofcom.
Camargue associate director Graeme Buck said: 'Quangos are facing heightened levels of scrutiny and it makes sense to take professional advice on how to respond. Reputation management is as important for quangos as for any organisation.'
Kinross + Render founder Sara Render said the increased PR focus was about more than protectionism. She warned: 'If they were seen to be spending public money on activities outside of their remit, it would come back on them terribly.' But despite the anecdotal evidence, COI director of news and PR Neil Martinson insisted he had not seen any increase in quangos hiring agencies through the COI.
Justin McKeown, Divisional director, Trimedia UK
As we count down to a general election, it is prudent for non-departmental public bodies to consider what might happen if a different party formed the next government. Indeed, when David Cameron has just delivered a speech entitled 'Bonfire of the Quangos', it is no surprise that such public bodies want to communicate their benefits to decision-makers and influencers.
It seems certain there will be changes in the funding and line-up of so-called 'quangos', regardless of who is in power, so it is important that the most efficient and effective ones don't get thrown out with the bath water.

Rock Solid Speaker Cable Termination!
These superb IntraLock™ Banana Plugs feature a unique design that will ensure that your speaker cable is terminated to perfection and will lock the connector internally within the binding post. These exceptional audio connectors are precision engineered with a solderless locking mechanism, which means that installation can be completed efficiently with only a single precision screwdriver required.
The generous 9.0mm wire entry point will accommodate even the largest varieties of speaker cable. This provides you with the flexibility of being able to use a heavier gauge cable if desired. The high quality 24k gold plated finish not only provides stunning aesthetic appeal but also serves to facilitate an extreme level of durability, which guarantees reliable high end performance.
Once the wire jacket is stripped, simply insert the cable into the inner chamber and secure the wire with the two screw locking fasteners. The outer plug housing then serves two purposes. The first is to conceal the inner chamber leaving a perfect finish and the second is to activate the binding post locking mechanism. When the outer plug housing is twisted over the inner chamber, this applies pressure to the mechanical switch which expands the connector section. This grips the binding post internally to provide a solid and secure connection.
Key Features
- Supplied as a pair (1 red and 1 black in each pair)
- Precision engineered from solid brass (copper and zinc alloy)
- 24k gold plated connectors
- Solderless design
- Unique expanding connectors - Locks into the binding posts internally
- Colour coded band on each plug for polarity identification
- 2 piece design for a quick and easy installation
- Accepts up to 6 AWG speaker cable
- Two stage internal chamber with dual screw locking fasteners - Secures both cable sleeve and wire
- 9mm internal diameter on first stage of entry and 5mm internal diameter on second stage of entry
- Plug dimensions (including connector and housing): 15mm (W) x 56.5mm (H)

Lets Play The Odds Multiple Times... Id Be Willing To Join This Game...
Lets Play The Odds Multiple Times... Id Be Willing To Join This Game...
I Am Kira! I Am Justice!! I Am The Champion Of The Light!!! Death To The False Gods!!!!
Ill get to this today. Lots to think about
First note: Your combinations don't know what they are doing with themselves.
For Town you have Vigilante, and Jailor, two of the strongest roles for Town, not in the top 2 spots. If in your opinion Mayor is the best town role because it will reveal someone as Mayor and they will always be confirmed town then that is fine at 1, but you'd be better off ranking the roles by the ability for the night power to drastically swing a game. The Town is probably best off having good odds at a Doctor and a Sheriff every night, with the killin roles being harder to come by because of the scale of their power.
I would suggest you organize Town as Citizen, Bonus Swap, Doctor, Sheriff, Detective/Lookout, Bus Driver, Vigilante, Jailor, Mayor, Vermin Supreme. This will give the Town the highest odds of getting the investigation and defense that they need to win a game, while keeping the roles they are most likely to get dependent on good play rather than a point and click to win. If you won't make this adjustment please explain why you prefer your organization that even, unironically, begs the town to not be dumb if they roll Vigilante.
For Mafia the setup is similar in that youd rather get consistent benefit with the risk of too powerful of roles being higher up. I would arrange them as such: Scumbag, Bonus Swap, Blackmailer, Consort, Beguiler, Witch, Bruiser, Kidnapper, Judge, Vermin Supreme.
Blackmailer is a good role that Mafia can always benefit from, however the blackmailed player needs to be able to vote after their 5th post.
Agent offers the Mafia almost no benefit because they can't REALLY town hunt if the Town is going to swap roles every night, so as that offers a value of 0 I've removed it from my recommended list.
Janitor is also nearly useless as all players "shot by the Mafia" are likely to be the same shared town role. This is a 0 value.
Consort, Beguiler, and Witch have a few uses and should be your midrange.
Bruiser is a role I've used before that for a night action can either act out a bonus perfect kill (that bypasses all protection), or makes the mafia's night kill perfect.
the rest need no introduction.
I would also advise that Godfather be immune to detection and night kills, likely until he is the final mafia member. You've opened yourself up to a lot of RNG and could have a bunch of TPRs floating around. Mafia needs a little bit of a buff, but going 8v4 would be nuts.
Please make these adjustments or explain why you won't make these adjustments.
Second Note: Money is fucking broken.
In its current form the town can purchase a doctor charge every night, and a vigilante shot on night 1. This is INSANELY imbalanced to hand these powers to every player like this.
This needs a dramatic nerf, I would recommend by making only the player with the winning hand allowed to buy that night. This will allow one player to be a bit stronger each night, and will create situations where the player can select a higher cost item rather than everyone picking lowhanging fruit.
The combinations in the first note are up for discussion but this is going to have to be hard nerfed before this setup will be approved.
Other options include
- having to have gambled that night. This still needs a price raise
- having won a hand at some point in the game. This also needs a price raise
- following a proper lynch/mislynch but raising the prices a lot
Also, how will the csrds be displayed? If Mafia can coordinate they can only have the highest hand go in. This is okay, but given how abusable it is id remove their added +$25 since they have a cheating advantage

Third note. Boring stuff
You need to officially note win conditions, day and night cycles, posting rules, activity rules, clarify role cards a bit more (example: doctor cant target self), what the vote mechanics will be (mandatory, majority, plurality, Condorcet?)
Thank you @Slaol
Will be fixed soon!
@Slaol This was remade arround december 8th, did i did everything nicely?
(This setup will be v1.0 only if it gets approved)
Also if you'll see the post edit history, you see that i had many updates, that are just formatting error fix.
Sometimes this forum automatically puts spoilers and sometimes ignores them like the [noparse] command (except that i didn't put it)
Ehm... @Slaol ?
Looks fine im pretty sure
@Marshmallow Marshall @Damus_Graves
check my math homies.
It's not approved yet?
Then... what to do then?
This is a highly experimental setup and the mechanics involved are of such unique caliber that we heartily suggest players and the host utilize whatever strategy seems most enjoyable for the game and take none of what results afterward to heart. This is truly a games game.
Sign ups?
Me personally?
I'm excited AF

Southwest Missed Inspections: What You Should Know

New Mexico Comunidades en Acción y de Fé, known as CAFÉ, staged a well organized and peaceful demonstration in Las Cruces Thursday, blocking entrances to the regional Border Patrol headquarters for about an hour and gaining national attention about the targeting of immigrants in border communities and around the country.
ProgressNow New Mexico was on scene to livestream the event which reached more than 79,000 Facebook users and spread quickly through shares from progressive Facebook pages from California to Texas including major Occupy pages and Indivisible group pages around the country.
You can see our complete livestream here!
Watch the video around 49:00 and 1:06:00 for the two major altercations that occurred between BP staff and protestors.
Read More:
CAFE held another protest in Las Cruces earlier this year that our own Lucas Herndon covered from his personal Facebook page. That action happened on the same day as ICE agents conducted raids around Dona Ana County in sweeps that many have questioned as illegal.
Of particular note were some local elected officials who came out to support demonstrators and, in the case of one state representative, actually took part in the civil disobedience of blocking the entrances.
Rep. Bill McCamley (HD33) wore a suit and tie and held a sign that read "In my America, no one is illegal by being."
State Rep. @BillMcCamley and others are blocking the entrance to Las Cruces Border Patrol station. Just had a tense exchange with an agent. pic.twitter.com/p0wGnUQzTs
— Heath Haussamen (@haussamen) May 4, 2017
The protest, on the whole, lasted about two hours. It started with about 150 people gathering on the sidewalk in front of the headquarters for Border Patrol stationed around Las Cruces. After about 45 minutes of chanting and testimonials, organizers positioned preselected members of their group at the two entrances to the station. It appeared to have been done in conjunction with a shift change and over the course of the next hour, there were some tense standoffs with people trying to leave the premises and being blocked by protestors.
The Las Cruces Police Department did show up and at times physically moved protestors out of the way to allow vehicles to pass, but no arrests were made, and once most of the vehicles needing to leave were gone, Chief Jaime Montoya dismissed officers and they left without incident.
At 4:15 into the video Rep. McCamley talks about the previous ICE raids in Las Cruces, and that such a threat from militarized federal agents led to thousands of students missing school in the following days, and that immigrant families often can't stand up for themselves because of the very nature of that threat of deportation and "when that happens, it's up to other people to do that (stand up to speak on their behalf) and today that person is me," he said.
Later (around 1:16:30 into the video), McCamley was sitting on the ground blocking the entrance to the Border Patrol station and relayed that there had been some altercation with a few of the agents, but that it had been resolved peacefully and that the local police department had not visited that side of the protest.
Dona Ana County Commissioner Billy Garrett also attended the protest in solidarity with local immigrant families. You can hear his words at around 9:30 into the video. During his statements, he poignantly stated "The America I grew up in, you didn't turn your back on these people and you didn't treat them badly. I think we have a broken policy."

Blade Runner, who is better known as the 2012 Olympics star Oscar Pistorius, was sentenced to prison for five years in the shooting death of his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp. On Feb. 14, 2013, the Blade Runner shot her and said that it was an accident. Pistorius was known as "Blade Runner" because of his amputated lower legs. Pistorius wears fitted carbon running blades while competing. Through his heart-warming work with charity, Blade Runner has captivated many people as well as his dedication to running, despite not having both legs. Sadly, the 27-year-old will not be competing in Olympic events any time soon while serving his sentence.
It is sad to see such a gifted man going to prison and throwing his career down the drain. A law student by the name of Yazeed Mia was taken by surprise by the sentence that Judge Thokozile Masipa gave the Blade Runner. Mia said that the judge should have given him a harsher sentence. Mia believed that the sentence now gives husbands ideas on how to kill their wives and receive less time in prison.
Judge Masipa believes her judgement was fair, fitting to the situation, and to the family members. Judge Masipa would have given him a harsh sentence but did not want to give out the wrong message. Judge Masipa believes that closure was indeed given to Steenkamp's family.
The Blade Runner's attorney said a leader of a gang had threatened the life of his client. Pistorius was afraid of losing his life, and unfortunately, his actions caused someone else theirs. Nathi Mncube, a prosecution spokesman, said that sadness over took him with the verdict and has not decided whether to make an appeal. They have 14 days to review their options adding that the case is not about revenge, but for justice to be achieved. The people of South Africa need to be completely satisfied with the sentence.
The courtroom was packed with all kinds of media and police officers. They were ordered to stand guard. Dr. Lore Hartzenberg, a psychologist, was holding Pistorius' hands while speaking to him gently. He was defending the Blade Runner against charges that he was derelict after killing his girlfriend saying that he had suffered emotional stress. A fan of Pistorius laid three white roses near him, in an effort to give a little joy to the Blade Runner for having to go through such a hard and difficult time.
The Blade Runner is expected to be in a one-man cell and showed hardly any reaction to his five-year sentence. A balance of deterrence and therapy must be given to Pistorius. Steenkamp, a 29-year-old TV reality star and law student, was shot three times by mistake because Pistorius believed that an intruder was in his house. Steenkamp was shot to death through the toilet door.
Protectors were also upset at the sentence given for the manslaughter conviction. They wanted a 10-year sentence for the Blade Runner, and instead, they received a conventional five-year sentence. The mother of Steenkamp believes that justice was done. Arnold Pistorius, uncle of Oscar Pistorius, said that his nephew will be paying society back on the road to his release.

It has been exactly 1,218 days (3 years, 4 months, and 2 days) since my last blog post.
WOW. Hard to believe.
It would take up that much time and several bottles of cabernet to explain what exactly has happened since then! Combine one part crazy career, 3 busy kids, 1 new puppy, an entrepreneur husband, a dose of personal sadness, and apparently that all adds up to 1,218 days of being blogged down!
Yet, here we are again. On the cusp of summer, with a fresh new perspective, a fresh new website, and a fresh new start.
I know all of our lives are so incredibly busy that we forget why we do what we do, what makes us truly happy, and how the heck we got here in the first place! I am no different. So, let's take a moment together, a collective deep breath, and enjoy all the inspiration and cool things that surround us every day. My blog will be a true "amuse-bouche" of topics: design ideas, trends, fashion, color, new product launches, mom stuff, life stuff, favorite books (and wine!), quotes, and anything else that catches my design eye!
A new chapter is about to begin, and my hope is that through my blog, we can inspire each other to live more lusciously! It is time to renew, refresh, and reinvent. Don't you agree?
With Love From Me to Hue,

Having a desk job can become very exhausting for the mind and body. Whether it's because you've been sitting in the same position for hours that you start to feel the tension in your neck and back, or by the time you get home you feel too tired to work up a sweat. Here are some cool exercises you can do at the office to help you re-energise throughout the day and keep you a little bit sane.
Shoulder Blade Squeezes
To improve a hunched posture, straighten out your back, squeeze your shoulder blades together for 10 seconds and release.
Book Press
Extend your arms above your head, holding a heavy book; then, drop it down behind your head. Repeat that for a couple of times to get your triceps working.
Chest Press
Put your hands together in front of your chest and squeeze them tightly against each other. Repeat that squeeze four times in the morning and make it a daily habit. You'll definitely feel a difference in your chest area.
Butt Clenches
Anytime, anywhere just clench and release, clench and release.
Leg Raise
Extend your leg while sitting; then, lower it without touching the floor.
Chair Squats
Stand in front of your chair with your feet apart. Drop down with your booty till you almost hit the chair; then, stand back up.
Wall Sit
Stand with your back against the wall, slide your back down to form a 90 degree angle and hold for as long as you can.
Standing Calf Raise
Stand with you feet together, lift your heels off the floor to raise your calves. Hold for 10 seconds; then, release.
Add in Cardio
Instead of ordering lunch, take the stairs during your lunch breaks to go for a walk and grab your meal.
Stretch, stretch, stretch!
