Whatever the future of human services innovation looks like, the key for organizations is in making the most of the forces of change in alignment with their unique circumstances.
Henry Ford unveiled the Model T in 1908 in a defining moment that changed travel and manufacturing—and influenced American life for years. Ford's innovation and others like it—the airplane, the television, the Internet and the mobile phone—shattered the status quo, introducing the next frontier in how people live and work. While it's not the stuff of history books, human services innovation is equally powerful. It's happening now, fueled by trends that help agencies deliver outcomes today while preparing for tomorrow.
Today's do-more-with-less environment is more the rule than the exception. The political pressure to avoid displaying material reductions in service while costs increase and revenues fall is driving change in human services. Leaders know that processes, technologies and cultures must all be part of the change equation to deliver high-quality, cost-effective services. A recent survey of 2012 Human Services Summit attendees revealed a consensus around the value of progressing along the Human Services Value Curve (a framework developed by Antonio Oftelie at Harvard University), citing it as a high priority. Yet respondents acknowledged that moving their organizations to greater levels of maturity is a significant challenge.
How can agencies move through the challenges of change? What today's pragmatic human services leaders understand is that innovation does not have to be an all-or-nothing proposition—and that it is never a one-size-fits-all proposition. Innovation can be about bold moves or subtle shifts, and it can occur all at once at scale or incrementally in pockets and across functional areas.
Whatever the future of human services innovation looks like, the key for organizations lies in making the most of the forces of change in alignment with their unique circumstances. It's about harnessing burgeoning ideas, trends and innovations that can bring about outcomes and impact in the short term—and hold strong potential for continued progress five or even ten years from now. So what are the most promising trends in human services? And how can organizations take advantage of them to move to greater levels of outcomes and impact for the people they serve?
Human services organizations sometimes have entrenched ways of working. It is not uncommon for service delivery functions within a single agency to be isolated from one another, despite redundancies that mean higher costs and lower-quality services. Government agencies and nonprofit community-based organizations often work in parallel, but rarely with explicitly common goals and practices.
Recognizing the need to maximize resource use and offer fresh ideas, some human services organizations are breaking through longstanding barriers and exploring nontraditional partnerships with each other—both nonprofits and the private sector. The result is a new human services ecosystem where organizations forge interactive and interdependent relationships that are mutually beneficial and directed toward a common goal.
This mix of new people and resources creates important advantages. Working together broadens the discussion around the role of human services with other state and community services. It forces every contributing organization to consider core competencies and determine how the collective can best function for greater, system-wide impact at less cost. It adds a client and community-centered approach to program-centered accountabilities, and creates stronger social services through collaboration.
The relationship between the Arizona Commerce Authority and the Arizona Department of Economic Security reflects the potential of nontraditional collaboration. Once operating in isolation, the state's job generation mechanism and its human services system are finding ways to come together to meet their distinct missions while seizing the potential for collaboration where clear intersections exist.
If this trend continues over the next five years, human services delivery could change dramatically. Broad coalitions of organizations with the right skills and resources led by human services agencies would jointly provide coordinated, cradle-to-grave human services with a shared emphasis on work, higher paying jobs with skill-ready workers and early intervention—minimizing the need for deeper-end government services.
An extension of this partnership climate, pay-for-success contracts are gaining traction as an alternative funding mechanism for human services programs that pays providers of goods or services when outcomes are met. These arrangements take on a variety of forms, and social financing is one of them. The basic principle is to encourage outside investment in preventive social interventions that ultimately benefit the common good—and reduce the need for costly future remediation for which taxpayers will have to pay.
In social financing, foundations or other non-government entities infuse capital for a specific intervention and, if a predefined social outcome is achieved, funders recoup their investment plus a reasonable rate of return. Prison recidivism programs in the United Kingdom and New York City number among those that have been funded via social financing. Similarly, Dakota County (Minnesota) Community Services, supported by the Bush Foundation, has explored the business case for its Re-entry Assistance Program, developed an outcomes measurement framework, and a re-investment design to support social investment funding.
Not only do such pay-for-success models align incentives across sectors and promote the wise use of precious taxpayer dollars, they are rooted in a strong outcomes focus. To monetize social outcomes, value must be inherently data-driven and outcomes-based. This drives discussion on measurable impact and emphasizes return on social investment in an entirely new way. Non-government funding opportunities also tend to increase tolerance for the risks that accompany innovation. Continued momentum here could mean that, as soon as five years from now, agencies could regularly pay providers only when social outcomes are met or exceeded.
The proliferation of data and the sophistication of technology to draw insights from it is a double-edged sword for many human services organizations. While today's data-rich environment has brought an ability to measure outputs and some outcomes, it can also create a swirl of complex questions without easy answers. What data do we have? What data should we be collecting? How do we protect our data's integrity?
Descriptive and predictive analytics are at the heart of the information boon as organizations work to make data insight actionable. Human services agencies using analytics today are most often using descriptive analytics for simple reporting or to detect and correct non-compliance after transactions are completed. The more exciting promise of analytics lies in a more proactive application. Predictive analytics can increase understanding of the relative effectiveness of different programs so that interventions—and resources—can be smartly targeted for better outcomes. As one 2012 Human Services Summit attendee explained: "Analytics is the way we are going to be able to figure out where to target our resources."
There is also tremendous potential for organizations to deepen analytics insight to develop preventive interventions that stave off later traumas and future reliance on the social safety net among specific populations. Consider the story of the Hillside Work-Scholarship Connection, a public-private partnership focused on reducing dropout rates among at-risk youth, so they are ready for a productive life after high school.
Working in the Rochester, New York school district, Hillside used predictive analytics to understand the relationship of specific risk factors—attendance, suspensions and standardized test scores among them—to graduation rates. Hillside understood that some students would graduate without their intervention, and other students would not graduate even with it. The organization developed a data-driven recruitment strategy based on which students would be the most likely to benefit from the program. It's an approach that improves return on investment for participants and funders alike.
As the use of analytics matures in the coming years, this success points to a future where key decisions, including resource allocation and service provisioning, are based on known impact and proven results in all aspects of human services delivery.
While public human services delivery is unlike anything in the private sector, this does not mean that agencies have nothing to learn from commercial practices. Even before Henry Ford's day, the private sector had an R&D model where innovation was valued.
The opportunity here is for human services leaders to fearlessly challenge "insider" mindsets that see only differences and inconsistencies between private sector and public sector services—and consider the potential of "outsider" innovations. The advantage lies in lower-risk innovation that aligns with consumers' service delivery expectations. Agencies should consider the example of customer-centered organizations that use multichannel touch points, customer and product segmentation, targeted promotions and self-service options. Translated to the human services environment, such approaches could mean quicker access to jobs, job skill development, eligibility determination and other services, so that people can experience economic recovery faster.
Looking to service delivery innovators in retail, financial services, telecommunications and insurance, the Australia Department of Human Services is reaching people in new ways through service center experiences, self-managed channels and online and mobile options. Targeting students receiving stipends, the Department launched its first mobile app, which allows them to conduct a number of tasks from their smartphones. The Department reports that users are conducting an average of 40,000 transactions per week, which eases pressures on service centers.
As other human services agencies begin to explore such "outsider" practices, what's business-as-usual in other industries may increasingly define the new face of human services delivery.
Serving the whole individual, a tenet of human services transformation, is impossible without health and human services integration—from strategic vision through tactical implementation. A 2012 Human Services Summit attendee explained the vision, "The challenge is sustaining a long term strategy to be able to view our customers from eligibility determination through delivery of services and assess health outcomes of the overall populations."
In recent years, there has been increasing momentum around the connection between these areas, some of it spurred by the requirements of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Opportunities for coordinated service delivery and holistic planning and economies of scale for infrastructure investments should create positive value where planned vision exists at the start.
As the mechanisms for paying for and delivering healthcare change post-ACA, it is an optimal time to come together and refocus on measuring the right kind of outcomes. This provides a richer understanding of how overall population health is often an indicator of the effectiveness of specific social programs, revealing "hot spots" for integration.
Consider the Home and Healthy for Good program in Massachusetts. It provides housing to homeless individuals as a first priority and then focuses on health issues. Data have shown a significant drop in participants' Medicaid costs, revealing a link between housing and healthcare costs, and highlighting a place where continued and even broader interoperability would likely bring additional value.
As states integrate health and human services, the future vision is one where the distinction between health and human services fades, both in theory and in operation, and wellness is defined holistically as a function of a person's social, economic, physical and mental state.
Henry Ford's use of assembly line manufacturing and interchangeable parts helped make the Model T affordable to the common man. While human services organizations share common ground around the need for change, the paths to change are varied. Different organizations will be ripe for different trends. Some jurisdictions are already rich in an entrepreneurial atmosphere, while others may need legislative action as a first step to incubating change.
Yet for all, success will require adaptive leadership and a pragmatic approach that never lets the perfect be the enemy of the good. The search for improvement is continual, and reaching the next frontier requires the courage to lead.

Pat's Cafe, a nine-year-old American restaurant tucked away on Taylor street by Columbus Avenue in North Beach, has found a perfect balance to give locals and tourists alike a true taste of our city.
It's a lot to take in, but once inside, it's difficult to leave. Pat's Cafe may be a bit of an eyesore outside, with its mustard yellow exterior, but the interior gleams. Bells jingle to greet all those who walk in, only followed by the welcome of tangerine-splashed walls, colorfully-tiled floors, and the smile of a server. It's cozy, to say the least. Sunlight floods through windows on the street-side of the cafe, allowing customers to watch the trolley cars pass by filled with tourists craning their necks to capture the best photos of the Wharf. San-Francisco-themed photographs and artwork adorn the tangerine walls, and the air is filled with conversations from both tourists and locals, and swing music from the radio.As I dined at Pat's Cafe, the smell of roasting coffee beans and freshly-pressed waffles filled my nose. My taste buds absorbed the simple flavors of my California Omelet ($9.95), which had grilled onions, mushrooms, sweet grilled chicken apple sausage, gooey cheddar cheese, and part of an avocado to quell the taste buds. It was like a diner--neither something to rave about nor something to criticize, but something that had a cozy familiarity to it. In America, diners are a dime a dozen, but the personality of Pat and her cafe left me eager to return.
Standing tall with broad shoulders, a tan complexion, jet-black hair, and a raspy voice, Patricia Darden, the Pat of Pat's Cafe, is certainly emblematic of her venue and of SF. She wears a red vest, a white shirt and dark capris to match the wooden cutout of herself that greets customers from outside her cafe. She's a little loud and a little out there, but she has a striking charisma and a harsh charm that prove difficult to ignore.
Pat has a go-with-the-flow yet determined attitude. She opened her first business after she grew fed up with office life. Without a clear direction of what type of business she wanted to run, Pat searched through neighborhoods to find what they needed. She found that there was only one place on Polk Street that sold freshly-ground coffee, a "prestigious" an unrivaled venue. In 1982, Pat opened her own coffee-beans store and expanded fifteen years ago to a fully-operating restaurant, and she's set on progressing further. She has opened for dinner a few times, but, due to the economy, a quitting chef, and other factors, she has had difficulty maintaining these later hours. However, her difficulties have not deterred her: "I'm determined that I'm going to do it."
The menu boasts hearty breakfast foods and wholesome lunches, many of which sound and taste familiar -- omelets, crepes, and pancakes for breakfast, BLT's, burgers, quesadillas, salads and soups for lunch. Fuzzy cushions and throw-blankets cover the booths in the back of the cafe. Pat and her staff bounce and sway to jazz on the radio.SF's funky history and spirit live in the cafe's artwork, too. Street artists' paintings line one of the walls. The Haight district's anti-Vietnam War spirit lives on in photographs from that era in another corner. Portrayals of a clown's journey through the city, too, manifest the city's eccentricity and color. Just like the city itself, this cafe is not short of creativity or zeal. Both offer a particular oomph found nowhere else.
Pat's favorite item on the menu is the French toast, because she's a fan of the ciabatta bread, but you can try it for yourself. Stop by next time you find yourself riding a cable car, exploring North Beach, or if you just want to be reminded of how great our city is. Pat will certainly welcome you.

So as a Cubs fan, you can imagine my excitement of pulling this sweet patch card, numbered to just 25 of Japanese import Kosuke Fukudome. He needs time to adjust to the fact that pitchers have figured out that he has a hard time with pitches in on the hands. Despite that he still has a respectable on-base percentage as he is a very patient hitter.

Upper Deck Baseball Heroes- Key Pull
Obviously as a bi-Soxual Cubs fan . . . . before I go any further I should probably explain what that means so there are no misunderstandings. I am a Chicago fan. Blackhawks, Bears, Bulls, Cubs, and Sox. Being from the western suburbs and not the city proper, I have the luxury of not having to claim an allegiance to only one team. But since your going to ask, if the Cubs were to play the Sox in the World Series who would I root for? Answer: the Cubs. They haven't won the whole thing in my lifetime. I cried in 2003 over the "Bartman" incident (truth be known, it was really the botched double play immediately following, that was the real down fall of that game coupled with Dusty Baker being out managed by Jim Leyland in the remaining game of the series) anyway, I digress, and I celebrated like crazy when the Sox won it all in 2005. Call me wishy-washy, or tell me to pick a lane, I don't care. I'm a Chicago fan who has a simple rule; No New York team should win anything, ever.

Lou Gramm – Me + 3 Offer Available!
- This event has passed.
July 11, 2014 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Lou Gramm is an American rock vocalist and songwriter best known for being the original lead vocalist for Foreigner. Lou co-wrote many of the songs for Foreigner and went on to have a successful solo career as well. Gramm was the vocalist for many top-40 hits including "Cold as Ice", "Waiting for a Girl Like You", "I Want to Know What Love Is", "I Don't Want to Live Without You" and his solo hit "Midnight Blue".
Gramm was born in Rochester, New York, and began his musical career in his mid-teens, playing in local Rochester bands. He later became front man for the band Black Sheep. Black Sheep had the distinction of being the first American band signed to the Chrysalis label, which released their first single, "Stick Around" in 1973. They were the opening act for KISS when an icy accident with their equipment truck on the New York State Thruway suddenly ended the band's tour on Christmas Eve, 1975. Unable to support its albums with live performances, Black Sheep came prematurely to a screeching halt.
A year earlier, Lou Gramm had the opportunity to meet his future bandmate Mick Jones. Jones was in
search of a lead vocalist for a new band he was assembling and invited Gramm to audition for the job of lead singer. With the blessings of his Black Sheep bandmates, Gramm flew down to New York to audition for the still-unnamed band. With his powerful vocals, Lou easily got the Job with the band initially known as "Trigger," and later renamed to Foreigner. Lou Gramm became one of the most successful rock vocalists of the late 1970s and 1980s. Circus magazine in 1978 upon release of "Hot Blooded" commented that Lou Gramm had a voice that Robert Plant might envy. His unique vocals have made Foreigner one of Billboard's Top 100 Artists of All Time in hit songs history.
Gramm was the lead vocalist on all of Foreigner's hit songs, including "Feels Like the First Time", "Cold as Ice", "Long, Long Way from Home", "Hot Blooded", "Double Vision", "Blue Morning, Blue Day", "Head Games", "Dirty White Boy", "Urgent", "Juke Box Hero", "Break It Up" and "Say You Will". He co-wrote most of the songs for the band, which achieved two of its biggest hits with the ballads "Waiting for a Girl Like You", which spent ten weeks at #2 on the American Hot 100, and "I Want to Know What Love Is", which was a #1 hit internationally in 1985. Their first 8 singles cracked the Billboard Top 20, making them the first group since the Beatles to achieve this in 1980.
By 1987, Foreigner was struggling with ongoing internal conflicts. During this period, Gramm released his first solo album, Ready or Not, which received critical acclaim and contained a top five hit single with "Midnight Blue". This was followed by the 1987 Foreigner album Inside Information, which reached number 15 on Billboard's album chart. The extracted "Say You Will" was released late that year, and "I Don't Want to Live Without You" followed.
Gramm left Foreigner for good and has been touring the U.S., Canada, and Mexico steadily since January 2004. As of 2013, Lou Gramm continues to tour with his band performing many of his old Foreigner hits. In May 2013, Triumph Books released Gramm's autobiography Juke Box Hero: My Five Decades in Rock 'n' Roll. On June 13, 2013, Gramm, along with Foreigner bandmate Mick Jones, were inducted in to the Songwriter's Hall of Fame where the two performed "Juke Box Hero" and "I Want to Know What Love Is", marking their first performance together in nearly a decade.
Although Uptown Theatre has hosted Foreigner before, this is the first time Lou Gramm has performed at Uptown. Lou will be bringing his signature vocals along with the classic hits of Foreigner making for a powerful combination and exciting show.

In Houston, the hotlands are also getting famous for tacos, thanks to Maria Samano and her flirtatious crew at Tacos Tierra Caliente. Her extremely popular taco trailer is parked in the 1300 block of Montrose Boulevard in the "We Fix Flats" parking lot. (Look for the 99� taco sign.) I tried two barbacoa tacos ($1.50 each) with onions and cilantro on top and they were outstanding. Ask Maria for the "salsita" and she'll hand you a squirt bottle full of her creamy green "hotlands hot sauce." Yow! -- Robb Walsh

10 Ways To Refresh Your Space
Whether you are looking for a change or to spruce up for the holidays, here are 10 simple tips to refresh your space.
10 Simple steps to take your space from drab to fab and freshen it up.
1. De clutter- This should be the first move in refreshing your space. Over time our homes have a tendency to accumulate and collect all kinds of treasures, gems and keepsakes, otherwise referred to as "junk". It's time to organize your clutter.
2. Throw Pillows - Changing out your throw pillows can add a bit of excitement to your room. Try some new, fun, funky throw pillows in your space and toss them on. There is no commitment with throw pillows, you can change them out with the seasons or whenever you get bored. Don't be afraid to mix them up.
3. Recover your chair seats - Believe it or not, recovering your Dining Room chairs is easier than you might think. It doesn't require much fabric per seat and can be done in little time. They don't have to be "matchy- matchy" have fun with it, dig through the bargain bin at the fabric store. For DIY info click here
4. Artwork- Besides, paint color artwork can have one of the biggest impacts on a space. Artwork can tell a lot about a person, whether it's a framed print, an abstract oil painting, or a wood carving, find what fits you and showcase it on the wall. Guide to hanging art: The L.A. Gallery
5. Lamp shades - Update your old lamp shades with some new bright white or raffia ones. You can even change the shape and give it a more modern look by using a drum shade. Most lamp shades are inverted slightly for a traditional look; using a drum shade tends to feel more modern and clean.
6. Knobs - Switching out your knobs and cabinet pulls on your kitchen cabinets can change the entire look of your cabinets. (Click here for DIY details)
7. Area rugs - Lay down a fresh new area rug with a stripe or chevron pattern to liven up your room. In seconds you can take a boring room and breathe life into it just by adding or updating your area rug. Think of the rug as your anchor, let it hold down your space with style.
8. Mirrors- The strategic placement of a mirror in a room with no windows, hung directly opposite from an adjacent space, will add light. Installing a mirror opposite a large window or a large chandelier can also increase reflective light in your space.
9. Paint- One gallon of paint can go a long way in making a design difference. Paint can change the mood and look of a room or a piece of furniture. This is probably the most common choice for freshening up a space. It's just paint be bold and daring.
10. Last but not least: Refurbish, repaint, recycle - Sometimes switching a piece of furniture from one room to another gives the piece a new purpose, fills a spot, and freshens the room. It's smart to always look around the house to see what you can R/R/R before you shop.

Swift Functional Programming - Second Edition
Swift is a multi-paradigm programming language enabling you to tackle different problems in various ways. Understanding each paradigm and knowing when and how to utilize and combine them can lead to a better code base. Functional programming (FP) is an important paradigm that empowers us with declarative development and makes applications more suitable for testing, as well as performant and elegant. This book aims to simplify the FP paradigms, making them easily understandable and usable, by showing you how to solve many of your day-to-day development problems using Swift FP.
It starts with the basics of FP, and you will go through all the core concepts of Swift and the building blocks of FP. You will also go through important aspects, such as function composition and currying, custom operator definition, monads, functors, applicative functors,memoization, lenses, algebraic data types, type erasure, functional data structures, functional reactive programming (FRP), and protocol-oriented programming(POP). You will then learn to combine those techniques to develop a fully functional iOS application from scratch

apple and cheddar cornmeal waffles
When I was young, cornmeal porridge was a regular member in our breakfast congee rotation, and I always looked forward to eating it with my fried eggs. It wasn't until my trip to Italy, though, that I fell in love. I still remember the initial encounter: the waiter set a plate in front of my dad piled high with fish and curious golden discs (fried polenta, as my internet research later revealed). I left the fish alone–I've never been a seafood lover–but before my dad could take a bite, I inhaled every last granule of the polenta. Its crunchy, savory crusts and creamy insides were a world away from the bland breakfast porridge of days past, and I was utterly smitten. I had learned an essential lesson that day: when cornmeal meets a hot pan, beautiful things happen.
Alright... we've already established that cornmeal + direct heat = beauty, yes? Well, the thing I love about waffle makers is that they expose as much surface area as possible to sizzling hot iron. And so, by the transitive property of long division, cornmeal + (waffle) x heat = unimaginable glory. Throw in some sauteed apples and sharp cheddar like I did, and you can conquer the world.
Seriously, these are amazing. The outsides are crunchy and speckled with bits of crisp, almost-burnt cheddar, aka THE BEST form of cheese–keep your cheesy toast in the oven a few minutes longer next time and you will never go back. The insides are fluffy and tender and full of juicy, sweet apple chunks that pair perfectly with the salty cheddar. Bookmark this recipe for the weekend and then treat yourself! You probably deserve it.
Serving suggestion: stack them up high, drizzle them with maple syrup, stab your fork through all the layers, and stuff it in your mouth with your eyes closed.
Apple and Cheddar Cornmeal Waffles
yield: around 6-8?
adapted from A Sweet Pea Chef
Note: These freeze really well, so you can make two batches, cook them all up, and then save them in your freezer for a few weeks of easy breakfast.
3 large apples, diced
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1¾ cups all purpose flour
1¼ cups yellow cornmeal
1 tbsp. baking powder
2 tbsp. brown sugar
2 cups milk
3 tbsp. vegetable oil
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/4 cups grated cheddar cheese
Melt butter over medium high heat. Add apples and saute for a minute. Add the brown sugar, stir well, cover the pan, and cook on low heat for 2 minutes. Uncover, stir some more and let cook for another 2 minutes so the liquid can reduce. Set apples aside to cool.
Combine the flour, cornmeal, and baking powder in a bowl, and the egg, milk, brown sugar and oil in another. Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and mix, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl, until no large lumps remain. Don't overmix!
Fold in the apples and cheddar, and then make your waffles according to the manufacturer's instructions. Eat them plain, or they are pretty epic with maple syrup.
to freeze: Lay the waffles on a rack or baking sheet and place the whole thing in the freezer for an hour. Place the waffles in a freezer bag and keep in the freezer for up to 2 months. When I want to eat them, I just nuke them for 15 seconds and stick them in my toaster... magic.

SN 1987A and many-sheeted space-time
Lubos has written a highly rhetoric, polemic, and adrenaline rich comments posting about the mediabuzz related to supernova SN 1987 A. The target of Lubos is the explanation proposed by James Franson from the University of Maryland for the findings discussed in Physics Archive Blog.I do not have any strong attitude to Franson's explanation but the buzz is about very real thing: unfortunately Lubos tends to forget the facts in his extreme orthodoxy.
What happened was following. Two separate neutrino bursts arrived from SN1987 A. At 7.35 AM Kamionakande detected 11 antineutrons, IMB 8 antineutrinos, and Baksan 5 antineutrinos. Approximately 3 hours later Mont Blanc liquid scintillator detected 5 antineutrinos. Optical signal came 4.7 hours later.
The are several very real problems as one can get convinced by going to Wikipedia:
- If neutrinos and photons are emitted simultaneously and propagate with the same speed, they should arrive simultaneously. I am notspecialist enough to try to explain this difference in terms of standard astrophysics. Franson however sees this difference as something not easy to explain and tries to explain it in his own model.
- There are two neutrino bursts rather than one. A modification of the model of supernova explosion allowing two bursts of neutrinos would be needed but this would suggest also two photon bursts.
In TGD framework the explanation would be in terms of many-sheeted space-time. In GRT limit of TGD the sheets of the many-sheeted space-time time are lumped to single sheet: Minkowski space with effective metric defined by the sum of Minkowski metric and deviations of the metrics of the various sheets from Minkowski metric. The same recipe gives effective gauge potentials in terms of induced gauge potentials.
Different arrival times for neutrinos and photons would be however a direct signature of the many-sheeted space-time since the propagation velocity along space-time sheets depends on the induced metric. The larger the deviation from the flat metric is, the slower the propagation velocity and thus longer the arrival time is. Two neutrino bursts would have explanation as arrivals along two different space-time sheets. Different velocity for photons and neutrinos could be explained if they arrive along different space-time sheets. I proposed for more than two decades ago this mechanism as an explanation for the finding of cosmologists that there are two different Hubble constants: they would correspond to different space-time sheets.
The distance of SN1987A is 168,000 light years. This means that the difference between velocities is Δ c/c ≈ Δ T/T≈ 3 hours/168 × 103≈ 2× 10-9. The long distance is what makes the effect visible.
I proposed earlier sub-manifold gravity as an explanation for the claimed super-luminality of the neutrinos coming to Gran Sasso from CERN and mentioned in this context also SN1987A but did not compare the deviations from the light velocity. In this case the effect would have been Δ c/c≈ 2.5× 10-5 and thus four orders of magnitude larger than four supernova neutrinos. It however turned out that the effect was not real.
For details see the chapter TGD and potential anomalies of GRT of "Physics in many-sheeted space-time".

World's longest aircraft to go into production
The world's longest aircraft is set to go into production and will offer intrepid holidaymakers "luxury expeditions" around the globe.
It comes after the 302ft (92m) long prototype of the Airlander 10 was retired following successful final testing.
Bedford-based firm Hybrid Air Vehicles (HAV) said it had reached a "significant milestone" after being granted production organisation approval (POA) by the Civil Aviation Authority.
A prototype of the aircraft built in 2012 was named Martha Gwyn after the company chairman's wife, but it became popularly known as "the flying bum" due to its shape.
The prototype was damaged in 2016 when it nose-dived and crashed during a test flight in 2016.
It also collapsed in November 2017 after coming loose from its moorings, with both incidents happening at its former base at Cardington Airfield, Bedfordshire.
HAV now hopes the full commercial model will take to the skies with its first paying passengers "in the early 2020s", although there is no word yet on the price of a ticket.
The combined plane and airship will feature en-suite bedrooms, fine dining, and seating areas with "horizon to horizon views".
HAV and Design Q unveiled the Airlander 10 passenger cabin at the Farnborough Airshow in 2018.
In the prototype-stage it was reported that the aircraft will have a maximum speed of around 91mph.
The tourism-focused, eco-friendly aircraft is intended to offer a leisurely voyage of the skies.
Some of the cabins will have glass floors allowing passengers to take in the views from 16,000ft.
A HAV spokesperson said: "Passengers on Airlander will have luxurious private en-suite bedrooms and will be able to enjoy horizon-to-horizon views in the aircraft's extensive Infinity Lounge.
"The Altitude Bar will offer drinks with the ultimate view, while 18 guests can enjoy fine dining in the skies."
The firm claims the part-plane, part-airship will be able to take-off and land on "virtually any flat surface", as well as being able to visit locations which cannot be reached by existing transport methods.
HAV chief executive Stephen McGlennan said: "Air travel has become very much about getting from A to B as quickly as possible. What we're offering is a way of making the journey a joy."
The company believes Airlander 10 could also be used for surveillance, communications, delivering aid and search and rescue missions.
David Lindley, HAV's head of aviation safety and quality assurance, said: "The POA approval is a significant milestone for HAV. It is the culmination of months of hard work and focused effort.
"It demonstrates that the safety, quality assurance, and supply chain management processes are in place, along with the production facility.
HAV was offered design organisation approval from the European Aviation Safety Agency for the project in October 2018.

There's truly something for everyone to look forward to in the first quarter of 2013. Here's our roundup of upcoming album releases, including a few highly anticipated records that don't yet have a solid release date.
Jan. 22
Toro Y Moi, Anything in Return
Here's what Toro Y Moi's Chad Bundick had to say to Interview magazine about this record: "I'm just trying to make sincere pop music that's not all processed and bubblegum." Intriguing, and honestly, a welcome change. Bundick hasn't failed, but the chillwave was feeling a little stale. It'll be refreshing to hear him trade some fuzz for shine.
Ra Ra Riot, Beta Love
The first single, off Beta Love, "When I Dream," features glimmering vocals, vamping keys, snaps, strings and a pulsing beat that's more of a feeling than a sound. If the song is any indication, Ra Ra Riot is taking a more minimal and understated approach — though no less pretty.
Jan. 28
J. Cole, Born Sinner
J. Cole is smart and a hard worker, qualities that shine through in his music and his choices. If Born Sinner is anything like his past work, it'll force you to listen close and think. He's talked about some guests on the record — the most speculated about and anticipated of which could be Kendrick Lamar.
Jan. 29
Local Natives, Hummingbird
Remember Local Natives? The L.A. band had a great 2010 and then faded away for no particular reason. Well, they're back with a new record, and we've already had a taste of it with "Breakers." There's nothing jumping out to suggest they've gone a different route, but when they've been gone so long, it'll be nice to have them back.
Tegan and Sara, Heartthrob
Once upon a time, Tegan and Sara were pretty firmly in the indie folk realm. Now the duo released "Closer" and we're hearing them in another world, one in which everyone is dancing. They've said the album will still have acoustic tracks, but there are a few like "Closer" on there, too.
Feb. 5
Frightened Rabbit, Pedestrian Verse
Scott Hutchinson, frontman for Scottish indie rock band Frightened Rabbit, released a statement along with the announcement of Pedestrian Verse, saying the title was a challenge to himself to do better. He added that he thinks the record is "the strongest and most interesting record we've made to date."
Feb. 12
Azealia Banks, Broke With Expensive Taste
Why you procrastinate girl? They'll forget your name soon. Just kidding. There's no reason to throw Azealia Banks' lyrics back in her face, even if you're getting impatient waiting for her to finally release this "debut" LP. She already has an EP and mixtape out to hold everyone over and prove she's got the skills for a killer full-length. We'll wait.
Feb. 19
Iceage, You're Nothing
The press release for the Danish punk rockers' incoming LP promises a record that "pushes Iceage's singular sound to further extremes." Vague, sure, but this is punk rock. Iceage knocked us over once and they can surely do it again.
Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds, Push The Sky Away
First of all, take a moment to be impressed that Push The Sky Away will be this band's 15th studio album. Next, prepare to be confused by Cave's description: "Well, if I were to use that threadbare metaphor of albums being like children, then Push The Sky Away is the ghost-baby in the incubator and Warren's loops are its tiny, trembling heartbeat." Maybe you'll have to listen to get it.
Date TBA
For all we know right now, Bey's follow-up to 4 might not drop until much later in the year, but she's in the studio with Hit-Boy and Kanye. This we know, and this we are very excited about.
The Black Keys
The date on this release it pretty uncertain, but Patrick Carney and Dan Auerbach are at work on a record with producer Danger Mouse. They hope to be done by the end of spring. Expectations will be high since record after record, these guys keep changing it up with hardly a misstep.
Lady Gaga, ARTPOP
This record is shaping up to be something far more than music. As the title suggests, it's become an art project. She's reportedly written something like 50 songs, she got the title tattooed on her body, each song is going to be paired with a film, and there's a book. Also: There's a song called "Princess Die." Spectacular.

Prune Rhododendrons, Azaleas, and other Spring Flowering Shrubs
Spring flowering shrubs should be pruned soon after they are through flowering. Rhododendrons develop new flower buds for next spring as early as mid-August. Others develop flowers in September and October. If pruned after new flower buds develop you will remove most of next Spring's flowers.
Do not use shears or power clippers to prune flowering shrubs. They should be pruned one branch at a time. Shearing causes branches to develop multiple shoots and they become artificially thick. Shrubs also lose their natural shape. One of the simplest techniques for pruning shrubs is the "one branch at a time" method. Select a branch which is sticking up or out beyond where you would like the outline of the shrub to extend. Follow the branch back inside other branches and then prune it just above a side branch or leaf cluster. Then, select the next branch and do the same. Making pruning cuts inside other branch growth hides the stubs. It also reduces the number of shoots growing back after pruning. Where previous shearing has created multiple branch clusters, remove up to 1/3 of them deep inside the shrub. One cut may remove 5 or more branchlets.
I can prune your shrubs for you or teach you how to prune your own shrubs. We prune together going from shrub to shrub. I explain why as well as how to make suitable pruning cuts, tailored to the specific needs of your shrubs and your landscape. As a result you feel more competent the next time you need to prune your shrubs. This service often only requires an hour or two.
Planting and Staking Trees
Holes for trees should be dug to the depth of the existing container or soil ball. Holes should be 1 ½ to 2 times the diameter of the container or soil ball. Trees in containers sometimes have several layers of roots on the sides and bottom of the soil ball. Loosen roots or slice through them with a knife to redirect growth downward and outward rather than around and around. Trees should be planted at the same depth they are growing or slightly higher. Do not cover the top of the soil ball. It should be at the same level as the existing soil or up to an inch above. If tree roots are wrapped in burlap and tied with twine, cut and remove twine after placing the tree in the hole. Fold the burlap back off the top of the soil ball into the hole. Tree trunks of large trees are sometimes wrapped to protect them during shipment. This wrap should be removed as soon as the tree is planted.
Fertilizer can be added as you fill the soil around the roots. I use a general purpose fertilizer such as 16-16-16 or lawn fertilizer. After planting, a one to two inch layer of bark dust or compost can be added on top to act as mulch. Weed barrier fabric can be applied before the mulch if desired. Keep an area at least 3 feet in diameter around the tree free from grass and weeds. This area should be increased in size as the tree grows. Trees will grow at twice the rate if there is no grass competing for water and fertilizer. This also protects the tree trunk from damage caused by mowers and trimmers. Trimming grass around young trees with a line trimmer can severely stunt or even kill them.
Trees less than 6 feet tall generally do not need to be staked unless you live in a windy area. For larger trees, use one or two tree stakes 2 inches in diameter and 6 to 8 feet tall. Pound stakes into the soil up to 2 feet deep. If you use twine to fasten trees to a stake make the loop around the tree at least 3 times the diameter of the trunk or fasten it to a flexible tree strap. Twine can cut into the bark as the tree moves leaving a weak area which can snap easily in a storm. Plastic chain link tree fasteners are safe and easy to use. Ties should be somewhat loose so the tree can move with the wind. If trees are fastened so tight that they can't move, they will not develop the trunk strength needed to survive on their own.
Trees need to be staked for only one year. If you plant trees this spring, remove the stakes next spring. Occasionally stakes are left for 2 years in very windy areas. Check periodically to make sure fasteners are not becoming too tight as the tree grows. Loosen as needed to assure tree movement.
The only reason to prune a newly planted tree is to remove a broken branch or correct growth defects. If a tree has two or more competing leaders at the top, shorten all but one. If small branches develop on the lower tree trunk, do not remove them. If allowed to remain for 2 or 3 years, they will increase the growth rate of the trunk diameter. Just shorten them so they do not become more than 6 to 10 inches long.
Trees need frequent irrigation during their first growing season. Light sprinkling will not reach the full depth of the root system. Place a soil mound in a circle to create a saucer to hold water. Fill the saucer at least an inch or two deep each time you water. Water every 2 to 3 days for the first two weeks and once a week for the first summer. If trees are planted in an area with sprinkler irrigation, supplement with deep watering periodically.
Remove Water Sprouts on Recently Pruned Trees Now
June is a critical time to remove those fast growing vertical sprouts that occur after trees are pruned in the fall, winter, or early spring. This is particularly true for fruit trees which have been heavily thinned so light can reach the lower fruiting branches. Sprouts can be quickly and easily snapped off with your fingers when they are soft and flexible. Snapping is preferable to cutting, because it removes tissue which can regrow another water sprout, sometimes in the same growing season. If you wait until fall or winter to remove those sprouts, new ones will grow to replace them next spring. Stop the sprout cycle now. And if you do happen to have more new water sprouts later, snap them off while they are young and soft.
Fertilize Lawn to Keep It Green
The last time I fertilized my lawn was in early March. The color has become lighter green with some dark spots where my dog fertilizes the grass. I like to apply a lawn fertilizer in early June with part of the nitrogen in a long lasting timed release form. Check the "guaranteed analysis" label for slowly available water insoluble nitrogen and slowly available sulfur coated or polymer coated urea nitrogen. Make sure the fertilizer contains iron also.
Move Spring Flowering Bulbs While You Can Find Them
Do you have Daffodils, Tulips and other spring flowering bulbs which have become overgrown by shrubs? Or perhaps they have become so thick that they are crowded. Most spring flowering bulbs will have completed development of new bulbs for next year by mid June. As soon as bulb leaves start to turn brown, you can move them to a different location and replant them. If you wait until the leaves are gone, you won't be able to find them.

So you want to start a student group for arboriculture or urban
forestry at your school and you have no idea where to begin. The information
contained on this website can help! Please contact email@example.com for more information or further questions...
ISA's Student Activities Committee encourages you to go to your school's
website and see how they establish student branches on campus. The process
varies from school to school but it is relatively easy and it's a good way to
get some funding to start up your group with the student segregated funds that
should be available. You can also contact your local ISA chapter and see if
they have any funds.
There can be costs if you so choose. Some student branches charge
$5 a semester. This can cover minimal costs. Other ways to cover costs is to
apply for money from your school. Schools across the world should have student
segregated fee funds for campus established student branches to get a hold of
and make use of. Other fund raising efforts can include: getting in contact
with your local tree trimming company and have them sponsor a demonstration.
Faculty advisors are seen as a long term asset to student branches.
Since students are only at the school for a certain period of time, having a
Faculty Advisor really keeps the Student branch afloat. This person will
hopefully create consistency and a feeling of permanence for the branch for
years to come. Other items: Keep Historical Files, Help Students with
organizing events with local connections, etc.

Hunting's never been my thing, though I come from a hunting family. It is extremely popular in this state with some even taking holidays to start off deer season. On the weekends, hordes of Arkansans head out to the deer camp to sit in the freezing cold for hours on end in the hopes of landing a big buck. I'd rather sleep. I did come across this interesting piece in Newsweek, though, about the evolutionary impact of hunting. As it turns out, hunting is kind of like natural selection in reverse.
Researchers describe what's happening as none other than the selection process that Darwin made famous: the fittest of a species survive to reproduce and pass along their traits to succeeding generations, while the traits of the unfit gradually disappear. Selective hunting—picking out individuals with the best horns or antlers, or the largest piece of hide—works in reverse: the evolutionary loser is not the small and defenseless, but the biggest and best-equipped to win mates or fend off attackers.
When hunting is severe enough to outstrip other threats to survival, the unsought, middling individuals make out better than the alpha animals, and the species changes.
It's an interesting piece, and something to think about.

Blocks bad Web sites or just warns. Schedules computer time. Manages multiple PCs, Macs. Tracks searches and social networking. Controls and monitors IM. Remote management and reporting.
Can lose settings if you don't save before changing tabs. Site blocking defeated by secure proxy. Notification e-mails don't link directly to the corresponding event in log.
Bottom Line
This free Web-based product has everything you'd expect in a parental-control system and more. It blocks bad sites, controls time on the computer, supervises chat, and even watches social network use on all your PCs and Macs. Settings are stored in the cloud, making remote configuration and reporting simple.
For years, Symantec has included a parental-control element in its Norton Internet Security and Norton 360 packages. It's so limited as to be nearly useless, so for years I've given it poor ratings. OnlineFamily.Norton is a huge improvement, on a par with the best existing parental-control programs. Now both suites offer it as an alternative to the old, lame Norton component. Users should definitely choose it instead. The new free offering is a strong contender, matching almost all the features of the top paid parental control systems.

I sometimes feel a little twinge when writing about software that's designed to let parents spy on kids or put strict limitations on their Internet use. I don't use such software at home. We have the children's computer out in the open, and we talk with them about appropriate use. So I was pleased to see that Symantec's new OnlineFamily.Norton (free until 2010) emphasizes communication over control. Symantec gathered an Advisory Board of experts in education, parenting, and online safety to oversee the product's direction. Among others, the board includes the president of the national PTO, a teen blogger, and an old friendRobin Raskin, a one-time editor at PC Magazine. The result is really quite impressive.
Simple Setup
There's no box to buy and (for now) no fee for using the service. Just navigate to onlinefamily.norton.com and register. You have to supply an e-mail address for the parental account, along with a master password. Make sure the password is something the kids won't guess! You can register each child's name and age during setup or later. If you're using a computer the kids also use, the next step is to download and install Safety Minder, a small (9MB) utility that provides local enforcement of OnlineFamily rules.
Like Safe Eyes 5.0, OnlineFamily stores all configuration information online. And, like Safe Eyes, it can monitor any PC or Mac in the house, though not all features are fully implemented on the Mac (for example, there's no IM control in the Mac version). You'll install Safety Minder on each machine that the kids usesettings are global, since they're stored online. All you need do is associate the Windows or Mac user account each child uses on that machine with the OnlineFamily account name defined in the previous step.
At this point, the product is ready to work, configured with default rules based on the birth dates you supplied for your children. However, the setup process does let you immediately tweak those settings to your satisfaction. I note that the first step Symantec recommends is talking to the kids about house rules for computer use. That's a good start. If you do start changing settings, look for the "Update Settings" button on each tab. If you navigate away without clicking that button, you lose your changes without warning. Symantec should definitely tweak the UI to fix this.
I was somewhat surprised to find banner ads embedded in the product's reporting and configuration screens. I asked Symantec whether the ads were there because the product is free, and whether they'd be removed later. They said they haven't made any decisions about how pricing or advertising will change after the end of this year. That actually make sense; they've got eight months to tune the product and examine its market acceptance.Next: Web Site Blocking

The National SkillsUSA Championships event is held annually. More than 3,800 students compete in 66 occupational and leadership skill areas. Working against the clock and each other, the participants prove their expertise in skills such as electronics, technical drafting, precision machining, medical assisting, and culinary arts. There are also competitions in leadership skills, such as extemporaneous speaking and conducting meetings by parliamentary procedure.
Technical committees made up of representatives of labor and management plan the contests. Local representatives of education and industry assist the national technical committee. Safety practices and procedures are judged and graded.
Students benefit from the competition no matter how they place in the finals. They learn more about their skills and often make future job contacts.
There are 15 competitive events: Accounting I, Accounting II, Business English, Business Law, Business Math, Computer Programming, Desktop Publishing, Document Processing, General Business, Interior Design, Internet Scavenger Hunt, Merchandise Display, PowerPoint, Sales Representative, Spelling, and Web Page Design.
Students from all over Mid-Michigan compete against each other in the above events. There are four winners in each event, and a school trophy given to the school with the most winners.
There is also a scholarship opportunity for skill day participants. Students wishing to compete for a scholarship must submit a written application, interview with a business division representative at Delta College, and compete in skill day events. Scholarship points are awarded for participation in events and placing in events. This scholarship is to be used at Delta College.
The awards program is aimed at stimulating the interest and progress of K-12 students and instructors by inviting students to enter their projects in the regional fairs and encourage technology instructors to support MITES by becoming a member.
Participants that place from first to fourth in the regional fairs may then participate in the statewide competition held during the annual MITES convention.

General Questions and Details
When should I schedule my newborn session?
Before your baby is born! Capturing your newborn between day 5 and Day 12 if possible, while they are still sleepy and curled up, can make for the best newborn portraits. I understand we never really know when your little one will arrive so I will put you on my calendar to hold a spot for you. When your baby is born contact me and we will schedule a the official session.
If your baby came early (like mine) or if your baby is already born, there is no need to worry! Contact me and I will do my best to squeeze your newborn into schedule and older babies take beautiful portraits too.
How long will my newborn session last?
Between two and four hours. Most babies are around 2.5 hours. Multiples can takelonger. But, I never know how the baby will do in terms of how sleepy they are, how easily they'll settle into poses, etc. Your baby truly will run the show and dictate how fast or slow I will be working.
What should baby wear?
Newborns photograph best without any clothes at all. I encourage you to bring special, personal items which make the session and images especially sentimental (tell me in your questionnaire that you would like to use it) but you do not need to bring clothing or props for your session. I have clothing, blankets, bonnets, headbands, etc for your baby.
Can I book a family session with you?
Totally! Although I specialize in newborn photography, I still love to take photos of families. Contact me any time to book a family session!
Where are all the props?
Sure, bonnets, hats, bows, and tiny clothes are adorable but, I want your baby to stand out, not feel like a prop. My favorite images of my own babies are ones where they are the center of attention. Those are the images I hold dear, and I want to create those same images for you.

A Gwinnett Country jury found a Georgia hotel partially responsible in a premises liability case for the death of an infant who was killed at the hands of her cult leader father. The 15-month-old infant, Alcenti McIntosh, weighed a meager 7.5 pounds at the time of her death.
Cult Leader Brutally Abuses Women, Children
The tragic case began in November 2014, when cult leader and member of the Nuwaubian Nation of Moors, Calvin McIntosh, showed up at Northside Hospital carrying the infant's body. On-site doctors pronounced the severely abused and malnourished child dead upon arrival.
Gwinnett County Officers inspected the Extended Stay America Hotel in Norcross where McIntosh was staying and found the child's mother, 21-year-old Isaia Sweeting, who had been missing since 2010. When police found her, Sweeting weighed only 59 pounds and had endured torture, rape, kidnapping and starvation.
Also discovered to be living in the hotel room were McIntosh's daughter
When a parent or grandparent can no longer care for themselves, you may have to make the difficult decision of seeking assistance from a nursing home. The situation becomes devastating when you discover your loved one has been sexually abused.
If you've put your trust into a professional nursing home staff only to have that trust shattered, it's imperative to understand that you did nothing wrong. Our firm has supported devastated families whose guilt has stalled healing. Blame may cloud your head, but be assured – you are not at fault.
This article aims to bring awareness to elderly sexual abuse. There are 5 signs you can look for to determine if the senior in your life has been abused.

Security has long been considered one of our basic needs for survival. If you should feel safe anywhere, it ought to be in your own home. Sadly, this basic right is coming under attack in the greater Atlanta area where violent home invasions are on the rise.
Deitch & Rogers Leads Legal Team, Files Notice with City of Statesboro for Potential $11 Million Claim
Article "City of Statesboro faces possible $11M claim" (Februrary 28, 2015) originally published in the Statesboro Herald
Attorneys for the parents and estate of Michael Joseph Gatto, 18, who died after a violent encounter at the now-closed Rude Rudy's bar Aug. 28, have filed notice with the city of Statesboro alleging more than $11 million in damages and that the city is to blame for not enforcing its own alcohol laws.
This is not a lawsuit at this point. But attorneys with four Atlanta law firms signed an ante litem notice received by the city Feb. 20. Complying with a six-month deadline that would have expired Saturday, this keeps open the possibility of a lawsuit.
Ante litem means "before litigation" and such a notice is required under Georgia law before suing a city. The plaintiffs would now have two years to actually file a suit.
Gilbert H. Deitch, the lead attorney for the
On May 16, 2014 a Fulton County jury returned a verdict for $5.1 million against Motel 6 and its parent company, Accor North America. The case grew out of the 2007 attempted robbery and murder of Brandon Todd at a Motel 6 in Albany, GA where Mr. Todd had traveled for a job interview with Georgia Power Company. Attorneys Gilbert Deitch and Andrew Rogers, along with attorney Doug Powell, represented the victim's parents in this Wrongful Death lawsuit.
On Wednesday, November 20, 2013, a jury of twelve in Cobb County, Georgia rendered a $35,000,000 verdict against the amusement park, Six Flags, and four of its employees for the 2007 beating and traumatic brain injury that a customer suffered after spending the day at the park. Gilbert Deitch, Andrew Rogers and Michael Neff were lead counsel for the Plaintiff, and Susan Cremer, Dwayne Adams, and Shane Peagler from MLN Law were also counsel of record in the case.
After hearing the testimony of 34 witnesses over five days, the jury found that Six Flags was 92% at fault. The jury also found four Six Flags employees each 2% at fault. The employees had already pled or been found guilty of violating Georgia's Gang Act and aggravated assault.
Attorney Andy Rogers explained, "the
After 23 years of providing crucial support for sexual assault survivors and their families, the DeKalb Rape Crisis Center is facing crisis-level funding cutbacks that have been mounting for years. No longer does the Center have the public funding that came from local, state and national sources that it has relied on to provide desperately needed services.
See 11 Alive's coverage of this important story, here:
The law firm of Deitch & Rogers, LLC is a long-time supporter of the Center. Attorney Andrew Rogers is the Immediate Past Chair of the Board of Directors of the Center and knows first-hand how important the support of the community is to the survival of the Center. Please consider making a donation to keep the Center open so it can continue doing the important work that no other agency offers in DeKalb County and, increasingly, in
Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority announced the installation of new security cameras on their buses and trains. The cost of the system is a reported to be $17 million, and will include buses with up to 11 cameras on board.
MARTA claims that the system "will act as a highly visible deterrent against operator assaults, crime and acts of terror," according to MARTA Police Chief Wanda Dunham.

The CBS story quotes MARTA General Manager/CEO Beverly Scott: "We want everyone to know that their safety is of utmost importance to MARTA, and we will take the necessary steps to ensure that they have a safe transit experience and work environment." However, it is unclear from these reports whether the video captured by the camera system will be monitored in real-time by anyone who might be able to intervene in an assault on a patron.

Police report the arrest of a 20 year-old refugee from Rwanda in connection with the rape of a 40 year-old woman and her 15 year-old daughter at Southern Place Apartments on Montreal Road in Clarkston, GA. News reports indicate the victims are refugees from Somalia. We suspect the victims are particularly traumatized by this assault after having to leave their home country to escape the threat of similar abuse.
Hopefully, the arrest in this case will result in the resolution of other unsolved rape cases in the area. Our experience in representing rape victims indicates that most rapists have victimized many women before they are finally arrested and convicted.

Hopefully, these victims will be able to take some comfort in knowing that their attacker is behind bars. We are also hopeful that they will take full advantage of counseling services available to them through the DeKalb
According to local news reports, a man was shot at Kensington Station Apartments near Stone Mountain, on Monday night, September 10, 2012. The reports indicate that the victim was assaulted by three unidentified men and is currently hospitalized in critical condition.

Unfortunately, this is not the first shooting at this complex, located across the street from the Kensington MARTA transit station and near the DeKalb County jail complex. Our law firm represents another man who was shot at the same complex in 2007. That case was sued in the DeKalb State Court and is currently pending in the Supreme Court of Georgia on an issue that was raised before the trial of the case. The case is expected to be tried in 2013.
Although police have apparently released few details about this shooting, it will be interesting to find out whether the shooters and the victim

Warren Miller's Lithographs
Ski icon Warren Miller reproduces sketches from back in the day.
His films have kept skiers in stitches for 50 years. Now Warren Miller is opening the archives to a talent that predates his film career, harkening back to 1948 when he resided in a Sun Valley parking lot.
Just after racing in the Harriman Cup that year, Warren made himself at home at the dining room table of the local Challenger Inn and sketched five images-one of himself and four of his ski pals-Jack Reddish, Barney McLean, Leon Goodman and Toni Matt. Years later-matted and framed-the sketches decorated his office walls. Now, after much prodding from business associates, he has decided to duplicate the sketches and sell them to the public. Reminiscent of the days when skiers skied to ski-not to pose-the appeal of these sketches stands the test of time.
"This is a great gift to give to the people who just loaned you their condominium for a week and saved you an awful lot of money," laughs Warren. "It will hang on their wall...as a constant reminder to invite you back in case you might give them a second lithograph." The set of five sells for $1,500. Individually, each lithograph costs $300, except for Warren's self-sketch, which costs $450. Warren jokes that his is worth more because it shows him with hair, which "makes it somewhat of an archaeological treasure." Warren will handpaint and individually autograph each print to the buyer. To order, contact Dan MacMillan (425-844-8406; email@example.com).

Patching solutions for a LAN environment
192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.254 -- LAN
192.168.2.1 -- subnetted through router with ADSL connection
Based on your description, you are looking for a solution that can handle scheduling of updates that will not overload your available bandwidth and can work in a LAN environment (I am not sure if the other clients are on the ADSL side of the router or are on another local segment). Most of the dedicated patch management solutions (for example, Shavlik, BigFix, PatchLink, Symantec, etc.) will have capabilities that can address your situation. Howerver, if you are looking for a no-purchase cost solution, you can take a look at Microsoft's Software Update Services (SUS). Keep in mind, though, that SUS will only allow you to update selected Microsoft operating system and application components -- it won't allow you to patch custom or third party applications.

Wynn, Martin G ORCID: 2208-1959-2208-1959 (2017) Housing in Europe. Routledge Revivals . Routledge. ISBN 9781138083493Full text not available from this repository.
First published in 1984, this book presents a survey of housing problems in various European countries and how individual states have responded. Each chapter begins by surveying the problem in each country since the Second World War, before going on to outline the roles fulfilled by national housing agencies and local authorities, as well as assessing the impact of housing policies on society and on the physical shape of cities. It considers whether housing policies have succeeded or failed and how the 'housing problem' has changed over time. Each chapter draws out lessons that can be learned for the future from each country's past handling of the problem. This book will be a useful reference for those interested in housing, including planners, geographers, economists, sociologists or policy-makers.

MADE Series - Discipleship
You Are MADE for DISCIPLESHIP
Purpose #3: DISCIPLESHIP
I love to read through the narratives of Jesus' journey's, how he chose to teach and do life with his followers. Jesus welcomed people to follow him, know him and then turn around and share him. This is the picture of discipleship, growing to be like Jesus. Jesus gives us a clear picture of what it looks like for us to surround our lives to him as we become his followers. We are to learn from him, know him, and tell others about him. He demonstrated this practice in how to called, loved, and send he's disciples.
This was part 5 our teaching series called MADE, given to our students at Hickory Student Ministry.
