Oracle Database 10g powers paperless mortgage firm
DPS is using Oracle 10g software to power its paperless mortgage processing system.
Anyone who's ever bought a house knows how much red tape there can be. But one suburban Detroit-based company is using Oracle 10g software -- including Oracle Data Guard and Database 10g to power its eMortgage Studio, a hosted document management system that allows customers to create, execute, register and store mortgage settlement documents online. The firm says it's also adding a layer of security by using Data Guard to create backup copies of its production database in case of disaster. Finally, DPS is using Enterprise Manager 10g to simplify the management of Database 10g.
The company, which runs everything on Before going with Oracle, DPS evaluated two other database management systems: Microsoft SQL Server and open source PostgreSQL. At one point during the evaluation process, Rackowicz said, his firm had all three systems running at once in order to "tool around" and test them out.
The IT team at DPS had previous experience with PostgreSQL and was familiar with SQL Server, but they had very little Oracle background. Despite the IT team's prediction that there would be a significant learning curve to tackle, DPS decided that Oracle was best suited to its needs.
"Overall, the history and performance of Oracle on large-scale processing helped gear us toward that direction, as well as our comfort level with the support that Oracle provides," said John King, IT Director for DPS. He added that his team wasn't as comfortable with the level of support for PostgreSQL and SQL Server.
King said the addition of Data Guard helps ensure that customer data and the eMortgage Studio application itself are protected in case of a data center failure. Data Guard lets users maintain and monitor standby copies of the production database.
Enterprise Manager, among other things, helped DPS lessen the Oracle Database learning curve by reducing the amount of user interaction needed in managing backups and other operations.
"The Enterprise Manager allows us to keep better track of updates and changes we make to the system, in case we run into a problem," King said. "We can apply schema changes easier, keep track of those schema changes, and it allows us to roll back in case of an issue."
DPS will eventually upgrade to Database 11g after it's released later this year, King said, but not until the firm has had plenty of time to test it out and early adopters have ironed out any potential kinks.
Looking ahead, King says that anything Oracle can do to improve the usability of its grid structure, and continued improvements to the way the Oracle Database handles

Arnell and Danita are the founders of Mending Hearts Community Worship Ministries. They recently answered the call to birth this brand new church. They, along with their three awesome children – Kevin (Nikita), Keron, and Kierra, are blessed to serve in ministry together. God has developed in the founders a Shepherd's heart, teaching them how to love and show compassion to His people. Arnell and Danita were born into a long lineage of faith filled believers, Ministers, Evangelists, Elders, and Pastors who consistently presented the gospel instilling in them a strong foundation. They have diligently served in ministry for over 30 years.
Arnell, an anointed Levite from his youth has served faithfully as musician, minister of music, and music director. He's worked for a number of ensembles and ministries including Mt. Sinai Cathedral COGIC-NY, Brooklyn Tabernacle Deliverance Center-NY, Agape Family Worship Center-NJ, and Destiny Family Worship Center- NJ. Arnell, throughout the years, has taught and mentored young boys and men to perfect their skills. He also helped them understand the importance of humility and the value in serving God with their gifts and talents.
Danita served as a youth leader, worked in women's ministry, and a Sunday school teacher. She has served in various administrative roles throughout the years. Currently, she assists in music ministry singing on the praise team. She was called and licensed to preach the gospel in the mid-90's and later ordained Elder in 2005. Danita served faithfully as Elder assisting in the area of pastoral care and spiritual development.
Together Arnell and Danita served as Marriage Ministry Directors and Home Team (cell group) leaders. They provided marriage education, facilitated seminars, and led small groups. They have counseled and mentored couples and their families. Birthed out of their own story they have a passion to see husbands, wives, and their families experience restoration, spiritual, and emotional wholeness.
God has blessed Arnell and Danita in their 30 years of marriage. They stand in awe of what God is doing and say "We are living proof of God using ordinary people to do extraordinary things."

In the decades to come, the city, not the state, will decide stability and development. People around the world have been converging on cities for centuries, and more than half of them live in one today. Western cities have grown so dominant that commentators now speak of "the triumph" of cities and call on mayors to rule the world.
The direction of urban population growth is shifting dramatically, as Africans and Asians, not Americans or Europeans, flock to cities in unprecedented numbers. According to the latest UN estimates, more than 90 percent of all future population growth will occur in the cities and sprawling shantytowns of the developing world. Meanwhile, urban population growth in most developed economies will slow; in some places, it could even shift into reverse.
The global turn to the city has been a successful experiment. Civic planners in the world's largest metropolises have learned how to make urban spaces safer and more livable. Throughout much of the developed world, smart cities are building urban data networks to confront local challenges such as crime, timely delivery of services, and carbon emissions.
Not all cities are moving in the same direction, however. As large cities thrive—just 600 of them now account for two-thirds of global GDP—countless smaller and medium-sized cities fall behind. Widening this gap are so-called fragile cities: places where the social contract binding municipal governments to their citizens has crumbled and anarchy rules.
With some exceptions, these centers of fragility are located in North, Central, and South America, which are home to a staggering 45 of the 50 most dangerous metropolises. In some ways, fast expanding cities such as Acapulco in Mexico, Caracas in Venezuela, Maceió in Brazil, and San Pedro Sula in Honduras are harbingers of what's to come in the rest of the Southern hemisphere in the absence of decisive policy interventions.
Urban specialists have long puzzled over what causes some cities to spiral into perpetual crisis even as others prosper. Among the best insights

We do not know how long there has been a Council in Lane End.
Although Parish Councils were first established in 1894, Church Councils were the local power in the land for centuries before that. There is a headstone in the churchyard at Lane End that reads "Here lies Daniel Avery for 30 years Clerk to this Parish ". Daniel Avery died in 1898!
Doug Pullen who has been a Councillor for over thirty years recalls that the proceedings in the 1970s were very different from today. Jacket, collar and tie were the mandatory dress code for men and jackets could only be removed with the express permission of The Chairman!
The Council's simple and over-riding objective is to make The Parish and even better place to live in and enjoy. There are numerous ways this can be achieved and our detailed plans are set out in The Parish Plan which can be read on this web-site.
The Plan was drawn up following a detailed questionnaire sent to all households in The Parish. Over forty percent responded which clearly demonstrates the interest residents have in the project.
All Parish Councillors are volunteers and give their time, energy and commitment free of charge. Our over-riding objective is to continually seek to improve all aspects of life in this community and we believe we continue to make good progress in this endeavour

Once the Attraction stage is finished you transition into Comfort. The object in Comfort is to build a connection with the girl, both a physical and an emotional one. The emotional connection is made by getting to know each other, and by finding commonalities, but most of all by having fun together. The physical connection is built through kino escalation, where you physically advance your relationship. Additionally, you take the girl through a trust building ladder to get her to trust that you will not make her uncomfortable.
- Emotional connection – Get to know each other and find commonalities.
- Physical connection – Make her comfortable with your touch and proximity.
- Trust – Lead her through enjoyable experiences.
- Fun – Have fun with her, through conversation, activities and routines.
Most of the courtship time is spent in Comfort. Whereas the Attraction stage last roughly half an hour, the Comfort stage typically take between three to ten hours and may require separate meetings. This is the window of opportunity within which it is most easy to enter into a sexual relationship with a girl. If you transition too quickly into Seduction you may get the girl for the night, but it will be difficult to take the relationship further. On the other hand, with too much time spent in Comfort, or too little kino escalation, you risk becoming her friend instead of her lover.
Game changer
In Comfort, the game changes a bit. The high-energy flair in Attraction can be toned down and you do not have to be funny or entertaining all the time. You can spend more time listening, having her talk and just being yourself. Furthermore, you can now be more open in showing the girl that you are attracted to her.
Comfort phases
In all three Comfort phases you will be using basically the same Comfort material. The phases are distinguished mainly by physical location.
- C1 Connection – Takes place in the original, attraction location.
- C2 Trust – Takes place in one or more other venues.
- C3 Intimacy – Takes place in a seduction location.
As the names suggest, the focus of the Comfort phases is also slightly different. C1 is where you start building the emotional connection, which continues into C2. Next, C2 is where you take the girl through a trust building cycle, by leading her through a number of enjoyable experiences. Finally, C3 is where you make the girl comfortable with the seduction. The physical connection is started as far back as A2 and progressively escalates until the end of C3 where it transitions into Foreplay.

I've been sober and authority free for one year now. It has been a real struggle, but I've come so far. I'm really proud of my progress in becoming a peaceful and ethical human being.
I was raised in a strict, disciplinarian, Christian household. My father was very stern and demanded much of me. I obeyed most of the time, but when I didn't I would be whipped with his belt, or switched by my mother. Bad kids deserved to be punished for not doing as they are told. I went to church every Sunday and was expected to pray to Jesus for forgiveness for my disobedience. I was a good Christian boy and I did as the Bible commanded.
I went to public school like everybody else and did as the teachers told me. When I didn't do as instructed I would be paddled and sent to time out. Bad students deserve to be punished. I mostly behaved as I knew my father would punish me at home for not obeying the teacher. I asked Jesus to make me a better student.
Every day in school, every lesson was obedience. Behave on the bus. Sit quietly in your seat. Do your homework. Stay in line. Answer the test questions correctly. Color inside the lines. Say the Pledge of Allegiance every morning. I learned that rules were meant to be followed and if I was going to be a good student, I would have to follow them, too.
My father was a minister and a farmer, and I was expected to help him to put food on our table when I wasn't at school. I wanted to play more than work most of the time, though. So I would be punished for not contributing to the family when I was expected to.
So I learned. To do as one is told, is to do good. To disobey is to be a bad person.
As I grew and got older, I noticed that there were a lot of people not doing as they were told. Those people were doing drugs, driving too fast, not paying their taxes, not going to church, talking bad about the President, and on and on. The world was full of bad people it seemed. They needed to be punished to teach them to be good and follow the rules like me.
But something happened to me. I'm not sure what it was exactly, but I began to have doubts about Jesus. I began to question my father's instructions. I stopped doing my homework. This all happened around the time a boy starts thinking about girls. I had always heard being a teenager would make you bad. My father had warned me once when I was about ten that I might be bad when I grew up a little more. I had told him I would always be good. I would always do as I was told.
But as I grew, I broke my promise. I stopped going to church, and abandoned much of what I had been taught. The more I stopped, the worse everyone made me feel about my choices. It made me very upset, but following the rules and being obedient really didn't make me happy. I was told to grow up, that life was hard, and if I wanted to be something I was going to have to do as I was told. The pressure to follow the rules was piled on and I eventually melted down. Depressed, alone, and without any real friends in the world, I quit everything. But a chance event would, in a very strange way, save my soul.
At seventeen, while skipping school my senior year, I was deep in the forest next door with my two young dogs. I always took a machete with me to carve out trails, and perhaps to use for defense if the need arose. But this day, I cleaved my bare left foot opened on accident. Blood poured out and I learned a lot about myself that day. I abandoned fear and saved my own life. I didn't even think about what I was doing, and I just reacted to the situation. I used a sock to make a simple tourniquet around the wound. Then I proceeded to crawl, only wearing a pair of shorts, through the swamp, briars, cow shit, weeds, gullies, and through the hot August sun for four hours, to my neighbor's house for help. They heard me yelling when I got close and I was taken to the hospital.
That day was my salvation in a lot of ways. I required tendon repair surgery as the machete had cut deep. I missed six weeks of school and had to learn to walk again. The school system failed to deliver my assignments and I fell far behind. When I returned, it became apparent that I couldn't catch up and graduate with my class. So I quit.
I became good at quitting after that. I quit college three times. I couldn't hold a job for very long. I couldn't hold a relationship. I became successful at failure. But there was one thing that gave me a sense of purpose, of belonging, of direction, and of strength; The Nation. It filled that empty void that a broken and humiliated person feels when they have lost their dignity.
Around age eighteen, I tried to join the Navy. I wanted to be on a submarine that carried nukes. I wanted to be one of the chosen few to protect The Nation. My family had a long tradition of military service. My brother, father, uncles, cousins and distant relatives had served. My ancestors had served in every American war. Now it was my turn to serve.
But that ol' machete saved me from that fate, too. They wouldn't take me because my wound gave me some limited mobility (which I have completely regained). I was depressed for a while. I found odd jobs as I searched for purpose.
Then September 11th happened. Those bastards had attacked my Nation. I was angry, and I wanted vengeance and war. I wanted The Nation to turn the middle east into a glow-in-the-dark parking lot. I wanted the blood of millions to be spilled to repay what they had done. They were my enemies, and I hated them all.
When The Nation sent in its conquering armies I was so happy and proud. I watched the tanks thundering through the desert. I couldn't get enough of it and wanted Iraq to become the 51st state, ripe for colonization by good Americans. I wanted Empire. I was only angry at the Nation's leaders for not sending more troops. I wanted a million troops dominating that sand pit of a country.
After all, our Nation was the mightiest, most prosperous of all. I told my friends that we would bring civilization to those barbaric people and save them from their cruel masters. When they learned what it was like to have wealth and freedom, they would abandon their evil religious nonsense. We would save them with arms and with prosperity.
The Nation made me feel strong and filled the emptiness in my life. I attacked those who criticized my Nation's leader. I hated those who vilified our glorious liberating army. I wanted them imprisoned for their treasonous words and poisonous acts of demonstration. I wanted them to follow the rules and obey like me.
But, once again, something happened that would save my humanity.
The stock market and economy crashed. One of the mighty pillars that my faith in The Nation rested upon collapsed. I reeled. How could our leaders let such a thing happen? Then, I found the answers online. I found Peter Schiff on YouTube predicting it years in advance. I found Ludwig von Mises and Friedrick A. Hayek's wisdom. I discovered Fractional Reserve Banking, and how fiat currency worked. I learned how evil and fraudulent it was. For a long time, I was perplexed at why the Nation's leaders would allow such a scheme. Then I realized, they were in on it. They benefited from it. It was the leaders who betrayed The Nation!
And then I found Ron Paul.
Because of him I began to read what Jefferson, Payne, and Franklin said. I found liberty. I found the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. I read. I learned what I had never heard, that liberty is the mother of order, not order's daughter. I learned that my rights are not given by The Nation, that my liberties are inalienable, that The Nation isn't a democracy, but a republic. I learned that my country and my government weren't the same thing, which was earth shattering for me. I learned that The Nation was designed to protect us from evil. If only we could restore it to what it was supposed to do. The leaders weren't following the rules. They had to obey the rules. They had to be punished.
I joined Campaign for Liberty, studied Austrian Economics, and devoured many books. I fell in love with Glenn Beck and bought a bunch of his books, too. Here was our cause's true spokesman! He would wake up the people so they could punish the leaders! I joined a local tea party. I discovered the Non-Aggression Principle. I donated money to campaigns. I spread the word. I gave the Constitution out at Christmas as gifts to my friends and family and told them about Ron Paul, the man who would save The Nation!
But, little did I know, the folks over at the Mises Institute had a trick up their sleeve. I found Lew Rockwell, and Murray Rothbard. I found article after article casting doubt on The Nation's ability to manage things, to make things good for everyone. No longer did I believe that The Nation should help people get health care, housing, and education, but here they were questioning whether there should even be a Nation at all. What about roads? Who would protect us from thieves and outsiders. How would contracts be enforced and disputes resolved?
But I had grown to trust them. Clearly, they had predicted the collapse years in advance. Could they also be right about the need for a Nation? Slowly, one by one, the pieces fell into place. I learned that monopolies don't really occur without The Nation, and that those monopolies provide services with poor quality, at wealth destroying losses, and at high prices. The Postal Service, Amtrak, Medicare, Medicaid; every government program was an abject failure. The banks were a cartel backed up by the evil and private Federal Reserve. Health insurance companies were de facto state sanctioned cartels. I learned that the wars on drugs, poverty, and terror could all be traced back to meddlesome interference into people's lives by The Nation.
I can't remember the day, or the moment. It happened so quietly. It was a whisper at first that slowly grew until it was a roar in my mind. Authority belongs to individuals, not nations. People shouldn't have to obey a monopoly that forces its will upon them with threats of punishment. I saw that all government services are paid for with compulsory contributions we call taxes for things we may not approve. Even if we do approve, the funds are squandered on favors and is mostly wasted in the bureaucratic jungle. I saw the police as violent thugs for the first time in my life. I saw that this monopoly I had called my Nation trained me, my father before me, and his father before him, that it was Master. It had trained us without me even realizing it. It had trained me to obey, to follow the rules or to be punished.
I finally learned that people who are good don't use violence to get what they want; they cooperate peacefully. People who are bad take what they want with violence, no matter what badge, uniform, or title they have.
When I learned this, obedience to the authority of The Nation lost its hold on me forever. I found ethics and philosophy through Stefan Molyneux over at Free Domain Radio. I began to process my trauma.
I finally realized that freedom from predation, violence, and theft can only be successfully provided by voluntary association, just like in every other service or good people desire, such as bread, shoes, or ipads. The monopoly that was supposed to protect me had instead abused me and everyone I knew.
Many have asked me "why don't you just leave if you don't like it?" I have left, in my heart and mind. But what better place to fight the war of ideas than where liberty had flourished the brightest for the longest? The battlefield is in the minds of my friends, family, neighbors and strangers. I think that battle can be won in time. I stay here to be a beacon for others.
For the first time in my life I have peace, tranquility, self esteem, and purpose. I don't need the crutches of religion or nationalism to prop me up any more. I'm a human being and I have self-worth because I have gained self-knowledge. I can stand on my own two feet as a person and do the right thing, not because someone commands, but because it is true.
That is my Path.

Not so very long ago, Ruth and I had a conversation about the future. A conversation we both wanted to have for a while now, one of those not so easy to start. A conversation about changes. About growing. And in the end about wanting the same: to take things to the next level. And very important: a positive conversation! You can guess what's coming and you might have seen "The Journey of Ruth" pop-up in your feeds this week. […]

Confession time:
I am a chocoholic. I love it. And up until a few months ago, I literally HAD TO HAVE CHOCOLATE every afternoon around 3PM. It wasn't much… Just a square (or three, or four)… But the daily sugar rush became an addiction and I could tell that the negative effects of sugar were adding up.
Last November I embarked upon a 21 day "sugar detox" using Diane Sanfilippo's amazing 21DSD program, and figured out two delicious ways to address my afternoon carb and sugar/chocolate cravings WITHOUT the sugar. The combination of protein + healthy fat + rich chocolate taste (and all of the wonderful minerals and antioxidants that are found in cocoa) in the following recipes completely obliterate my cravings.
I'm spared the sugar rush and subsequent sugar CRASH.
Note: If you are NOT following the 21DSD, feel free to add a few drops of liquid stevia or a touch of honey to the recipes below. As written below, the following recipes are 21DSD friendly. They aren't sweet (but they're incredibly satisfying).
Chocolate Chia Parfait – serves 1*
- 3/4 cup unsweetened nondairy milk of choice (I used 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk thinned with 1/4 cup water)
- 1 green-tipped banana, divided**
- 1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- pinch of sea salt (brings out the flavor)
- a splash of pure vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
Add milk, half of your green-tipped banana, the cocoa, sea salt, and vanilla to a blender. Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Add chia seeds. Blend on low for a few seconds, or pulse them in (you don't want to pulverize the seeds). Pour mixture into a small bowl. Chill until "set" to a pudding-like consistency. Slice the remainder of your green-tipped banana. Either layer pudding and banana slices like a parfait, or simply top your bowl of pudding with the banana slices. Eat and ENJOY!
*Note: This single-serving recipe counts for your daily allotment of fruit if you're following the 21DSD.
**Note (2): If you're NOT following the 21DSD, feel free to use a fully ripe yellow banana (don't worry about the green tip!).
Chocolate-Almond Freezer "Fudge"
I posted the following recipe in one of our December e-newsletters, and received this feedback from a fan: "Just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the 'secret trick.' It is actually working for me! I am completely thrilled and blown away. The first day the 'fudge' tasted very bitter, but now it tastes yummy and chocolatey! Amazing! Thank you!" –Barbara
- 2 Tbsp extra virgin coconut oil, softened
- 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond butter
- 1-2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (I use approx 1.5 Tbsp)
- pinch of sea salt (brings out the flavor)
Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. If hard to mix, microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften the coconut oil further, and then mix again. Stir until completely blended and smooth. Line a small storage container with waxed paper. Pour mixture in, then freeze until solidified. Cut into 4-6 pieces. Eat a piece whenever a craving strikes!
Remember: this is NOT a sweet treat, but it's rich, chocolate-y, and deeply satisfying! You'll just need a tiny bit to satisfy your cravings.
Here's another fun way to do it… Spoon the mixture into silicone molds, and then freeze. Pop one out for your afternoon treat!
Note: I am a proud affiliate of the 21DSD program. You can read more about it on this page, if you'd like to try it for yourself!

Stuart & I have made what may be our most controversial episode yet. We tackle Buddhist Enlightenment© and its taboos and do what many Buddhists would likely consider sacrilegious. A few of the questions we tackle include;
- What is it?
- Who's got it?
- Can it be understood, formulated in a way that could liberate the masses as a form of human practice?
- Why bother? Is it the shiznit?
- How would it look if unreliant on Buddhism?
- What could a secular, humanist outlook as the basis for reconfiguring it produce?
- Who are the top ten enlightened dudes?
- How can you spot a fake?
It's the sort of material that could drive masses of keyboard warriors to start quoting their favourite Buddhist books or teachers in a furious, emotive rant against all that is evil, for the first time encapsulated in an hour and twenty four minutes of a Soundcloud download.
If you are brave enough, download or stream the latest episode and enjoy a rather interesting take on Buddhism's ultimate goal. We had fun with it and raised as many questions as we may have answered, which hopefully one of our upcoming guests will respond to.
Come and get enlightened.
Come and listen to the Imperfect Buddha Podcast.

College Credit Card Agreements Decline As More Debit Card Deals Emerge
The Consumer Federal Protection Bureau recently reported a nearly 70% decline in college credit card agreements since Congress established regulations for disclosures in 2009. Educational institutions are now forced to be completely transparent when offering credit cards to students, and it seems that transparency has led to a drop in credit card agreements and an increase in debit card and prepaid card offers.
In 2009, there were 1,045 college credit card agreements, with issuers paying $84 million in royalties and bonuses to the schools for their efforts. Since the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility, and Disclosure (CARD) Act was established that year, the numbers have declined dramatically. In 2013, that number dropped to a mere 336 agreements and $43 million.
But card companies are still finding ways to promote plastic on college campuses. Schools and issuers have now shifted to promoting debit cards and prepaid cards instead because those products do not have the same stringent rules and regulations.
A report from the Government Accountability Office said there were at least 852 educational institutes that had agreements with debit and prepaid card providers as of 2013. This means that there are now more debit card agreements in place than credit card agreements. This is largely due to the regulations set out by the CARD Act, which do not directly impact debit cards. Schools are not yet required by law to disclose their marketing partnerships to students when applying for a debit or prepaid card.
Even though schools are required to be transparent about their agreements with credit card companies, they do not make the information easily accessible. The CFPB reviewed 35 college websites to see if they made their card agreements easy to find online, and found only seven had that information available. 80% did not have their agreements on their websites, nor did they provide information on how to request the agreements.
College-marketed debit cards are not as financially risky as credit cards, so in some ways, this shift is beneficial to students. However, most of these debit and prepaid cards come with fees that students may not realize. Annual fees, ATM fees, transaction fees and deposit fees can all chip away at a student's limited income. Schools may be inclined to promote high-fee cards to their students because of the incentives they receive from the card providers, even if those products are not the best options for their students.
"Financial institutions are cutting more deals with colleges and universities to market student banking products that require less disclosure," CFPB Director Richard Cordray said in a statement. "Schools and financial institutions should be up front on their website with students and their families about whether or not the school is being compensated to encourage students to use a specific account or card product."
The remaining credit card agreements are highly profitable. In many cases, the beneficiaries for the credit card agreements are actually the school's alumni association, not the college or university. For instance, Penn State Alumni Association earned over $2.8 million in 2013 from an agreement with FIA Card Services. The Alumni Association of the University of Michigan earned $1.9 million from the same organization.
The CARD Act of 2009 paved the way for a better financial start for a number of college students, but a lack of regulations with other financial products may still be putting students at risk. The CFPB will continue to monitor colleges and their interactions with financial institutions to protect students in the future.

The Void (2016) Is All Those Creature, Gore, & Cult Scary Movies You Love
A small town patrol officer finds a mysterious man wounded on the road at night and gets him to the local hospital. What follows that man leads to a night of carnage and the unfolding of a bigger mystery.
Written and directed by Jeremy Gillespie & Steven Kostanski
When I say small town, I mean so small that when Officer Daniel (Aaron Poole) finds the bloody and scared James (Even Stern) on the side of the road, it's much more of a time saver just put him in the car and take him to the hospital himself where maybe only four people seem to work. It's all very Halloween 2 in that dreaded sense so when the shit hits the proverbial fan, it is notably scary yet for horror fans, an additional delight full of nods to horror cinema with monstrosities of the past while still feeling like a fresh story.
Themes of loss and heartbreak never age. They are some of our true horrors and embedded neurosis as human beings. Each character in this narrative feels it in real time, stratching old wounds until they bleed while trying to stay alive against forces that are natural and a bit supernatural. It all bears this "beauty in the profane" approach when occulty hooded people show up to give the story its base and meaning. The Void has a simple philosophy that is dangerously potent. Or could it be described more accurately as fearless?
The Void progresses and pushes the limit in its running time to make use of personal tragedy, insecurity, what-the-hell-was-that, also tons of gore and effects that aren't disappointments. I can't promise that it will all come together and make sense after one viewing. The rewatchability factor is, I'm happy to report, extremely high because the plot can be intriguingly convoluted towards the climax but it is a fun ride.

Clare captain Patrick Donnellan says he has no worries about the under-21s returning to competitive action this weekend ahead of the All-Ireland senior final.
With a massive 18 under-21 players on Davy Fitzgerald's panel, several members of the team that spearheaded Clare's passage through to their first senior final in 11 years will be hoping to repeat the trick on Saturday.
Clare take on Galway in the Bord Gais Energy All-Ireland under-21 semi-final in Thurles as they bid for their third title at the grade since 2009.
Donnellan says that there is no need for wrapping them up in cotton wool ahead of the senior decider against Cork on September 8 and insists that he won't be watching next Saturday's game in trepidation.
"I won't be nervous," he said. "Nervous that they play well more than anything. There's no fear of them. They could get a belt in training no more so than in a game.
"You'd just be hoping that they do themselves justice and that they can get a win and give us and the county another lift.
"The lads have been playing at a very high level for the last couple of years, the under-21s and the minors, and they deserve every success they've had.
"They're a fine team in themselves and it's great for them to have another big day out next week and look, winning is great, winning gives you momentum."
At 28, Donnellan could almost be described as a veteran alongside the glut of young tyros like Tony Kelly, Padraic Collins and David McInerney and he admits that the successful generation of players which started with the All-Ireland under-21 success of four years ago bring a different mindset to the senior panel.
"They're a different generation even though they're only five or six years younger. They're a totally different mentality to what we would have been.
"There's no lack of confidence in there. There's no inhibitions at all, they're really mature and they look after themselves very well and they train really hard.
"They're winning underage, something that we probably never would have done so they're coming to senior level with a lot of experience and a lot of big days behind them."
Naturally, the excitement will be at fever pitch in the county in the lead up to the final.
"It's great but in a way it's not for us to enjoy," Donnellan cautioned. "We'll look forward to it, no more than we look forward to any other game."

Learn to create a light, momentary trance in people for various uses. When your conscious awareness is focused entirely on internal experience, NLP refers to this as downtime. The Downtime state is a subset type of trance phenomenon, and can help initiate or deepen trance. It can help you manage an interaction as a brief, […]
Category: Techniques
Self Anchoring
Decide what state you want to create an anchor for. For example, perhaps you would like to anchor a good state for meeting and negotiating. Whatever it is, chose one … Move into third position, as if you are watching your life in a movie. Recall all the times that you felt some aspect of […]
Accessing Resourceful States
Learn state mastery. Elicit resourceful states, such as confidence and creativity, that will move you toward your goals. Managing states is one of the most fundamental skills in Neuro Linguistic Programming. Step #1. Choose a situation that calls on you to be in an excellent state. What resources do you need to have in that […]
State Induction
Apply one of the most fundamental NLP skills: state induction. This tool helps us induce a needed state (such as confidence), prepare for an event, or take steps in many NLP patterns. For example, once you have induced a helpful state, you will find it is easier to do mental rehearsal in preparing for a […]
Physiomental State Interruption
Master the art of change by learning to clear a space for a new state. You can do this by breaking or interrupting the current state. As you'll recall, state in NLP refers to your state of mind and body at any given time. States may be functional or dysfunctional. NLP makes extensive use of […]
Ecology Check
Induce change with this flexible and important pattern. It prevents self-sabotage by making sure a change will be acceptable to all parts. You can even apply this ecological approach to multiple systems, such those in politics. When you think "ecologically," you are taking every aspect of your outcome into account. You check to make sure […]
Eliciting Subconcious Responses
Become a master communicator by learning to recognize and utilize subtle changes in others' physiology. This technique involves the valuable skill of eliciting subconscious resources, a skill that serves you best when it, too, is subconscious. This skill deserves serious study, so resist any temptation to treat it like a magic trick. We recommend that you […]
Exchanged Matches
Not all your mirroring has to use the same parts of the body, just as your symbolic mirroring does not necessarily use exactly the same words. For example, NLP teaches that you can make a motion such as finger taps that match the rhythm of the breath, rather than breathing to the breath timing yourself. […]
Symbolic Mirroring
Notice how we have gone beyond physical mirroring to include things of symbolic value. This is symbolic mirroring, and the symbolic behavior is often subconscious behavior. And we have seen that you can combine symbolic and physical mirroring. This combination of symbolic and physical mirroring is very powerful. For practice in looking for subconscious symbols, […]
Behavioral Mirroring
Unlike regular mirroring, in behavioral mirroring, you match behaviors that have symbolic meaning. They are mostly subconscious. In fact, the more subconscious they are, the better they are to mirror. After all, no one can think you're imitating him or her if you are imitating something they don't know they're doing, can they? But […]
Behavior Appreciation
Improve your performance and self care by developing a positive approach to personal development. This pattern uses anchors to find the positive intention (the underlying positive outcome-seeking pattern) underlying a negative behavior. For example, if you burst into tears at times, you have better options than feeling inferior. Instead, this positive approach might help you […]
Finding Positive Intentions
Transform self sabotage into success. By discovering the positive intent behind a negative behavior or attitude, you can release tremendous energy and positive commitment. Other NLP patterns, such as The Parts Negotiation pattern as well as The Behavior Appreciation pattern, depend on this insight In his outstanding book Sleight Of Mouth: The Magic Of Conversational […]
Pacing and Matching
Pacing and matching are important to modeling and rapport-building. This pattern helps you pace their model of the world. This is a profound form of pacing. When you practice this pattern, you will sharpen your awareness of people's subconscious communications. When you pace a person's model of the world, you can better understand their perspective and […]
Collapsing anchors
Anchoring two states, one negative and one positive, and letting the energy flow from the former to the latter to replace a negative state with a positive one.
Chaining anchors
Creating a line of anchors that take you on a journey from one mood to another, for example from hate to love via irritation, indifference and affection to move elegantly from a negative state to a positive one.

Used for overcoming inner resistance (often from an internalized 'parent') to a course of action. A set of questions, leading up to an act of sponsorship by the coach.
Micro-muscle modelingRead More →
Logical Levels Alignment
Used for reducing internal conflict. A meditation exercise that makes the client aware of each of six levels of motivation in turn
Six-Step Reframe
The steps of the Six-Step Reframe technique are: 1. Identify the behavior, response or signal you want to change 2. Communicate with the part responsible for the behavior Literally talk to the part. Respectfully ask "Will the part responsible for X communicate with me consciously now?" Then carefully notice the signals or response you get. It may be words, sounds, […]
Anchoring is the process of associating a past state or response with a particular stimulus. The stimulus, or "anchor," could be anything from a specific touch, sound or smell. Remembering and re-experiencing a positive or resourceful past state and anchoring it to a unique stimulus can make it available on demand. This idea is similar to […]
Swish Pattern
Swish Pattern is a NLP submodality process that programs your brain to go in a new direction. It is used to change undesired habits or unwanted behaviors into new constructive ones. Credits for the creation of this NLP pattern belong to Richard Bandier and John Grinder. Break an automatic thought or behavior pattern, and replace it […]
Mirroring is consciously matching portions of another person's behavior in order to gain rapport. It is an effect that occurs naturally in everyday communication and can be used to increase the level of rapport felt between people. See also Matching. Enhance your ability to establish rapport and to model excellence. This pattern builds a useful "second position" […]

the future of libraries in the digital age
Your Name and Title: Kathleen Johnson
Library, School, or Organization Name: Seattle Academy
Co-Presenter Name(s):
Area of the World from Which You Will Present: Seattle, WA (Pacific Time)
Language in Which You Will Present: English
Target Audience(s): School Librarians (middle & high school)
Short Session Description (one line): The ultimate student-centered library practice will require the courage to place each student at the center of their own information universe.
Full Session Description (as long as you would like):
What if we put our students in the driver's seat? My realization went beyond co-creating with our students, and beyond the user-driven library. If a student is in charge of their own personal and social learning network, their "personal library" so to speak, they can learn from the inside out. A well-designed personal learning environment (PLE) amplifies an individual and allows them to connect and tap into the power of networked learning to support their interests. Best of all, a dynamic, responsive information universe can live on past the assignment, past the course, past graduation... on into life fulfilling the vision of lifelong learning.
With the introduction of the hyperlink, everyone gained the ability to personalize and define their own pathways through knowledge. It would be difficult to overstate the magnitude of this change and its implications for learning. Personalized learning and inquiry has emerged as one of the primary advantages of the internet. Technology is not just a tool; it has changed the face of learning forever.
Wendy Drexler one of the original PLE advocates, stated that "Librarians are faced with the same shift as teachers." That would be the shift from teaching to learning. How can our mission become even more learner-centered? Librarians are uniquely qualified to participate in this learning revolution because "discovery" is and always has been our mode of operation.
Putting students in charge of their own library, or more precisely their learning network, satisfies their need to create (and co-create); satisfies their need to belong (social networking, social searching, social everything); and satisfies their need to understand (navigation and discovery, when and how they want to). This organically creates an opening for students to add the library and the librarian as valued nodes in their learning network. I can't think of a more authentic relationship to have with our students. Our collections, our pathfinders and our expertise become an extension of the student's network rather than the other way around. Collectors not collections![1] It's a new framework for everything we already do; new packaging for our classic product, one that is more relevant today than it has ever been.
Can this idea of putting our students into the center of their information universe become our new shaping mindset, a bridge to our remixed future?

Citation for Elizabeth Strout '77
Presented by Trustee David L. Foster '77
President Hansen, I am honored to present Elizabeth Strout, Class of 1977.
Life as a human being can be so demanding that few of us have the time or energy to figure out what our life means. That's one reason that novelists such as my classmate and friend Elizabeth Strout are so important. They have the eye and the empathy to capture for us the moments, the fleeting thoughts and actions, that compose the mosaic of a life. And they have the rigor and compassion to give that mosaic a form in which fiction becomes a kind of higher truth.
Ms. Strout told an Atlantic Monthly interviewer that she's always intrigued by "what's really going on behind the front door of someone's house." So she has taken us behind those doors to meet people and communities — set convincingly here in Maine — that are tied together by relationships that are sometimes lifelines and sometimes snares. The latest of her three bestsellers,Olive Kitteridge, was so persuasive a portrait of its difficult title character that last year it won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction.
After Bates, Ms. Strout earned a law degree and worked jobs as random as selling mattresses and playing nightclub piano. For a while it seemed that the counsel she was given by her Bates advisor would come true: Once she left this campus, he told her, nobody would care whether or not she wrote another word. But Ms. Strout made us care. It's my pleasure to present Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Elizabeth Strout for the degree Doctor of Letters.
President's Conferral:
Elizabeth Strout, your eye for the telling detail, your feel for the undercurrents of human relationships, and your ability to shape words into worlds that live vividly on the page have made you one of the outstanding novelists of our time. Therefore, by the authority vested in me by the Board of Trustees, I hereby confer upon you the degree Doctor of Letters, with all the rights, privileges, and responsibilities which here and everywhere pertain to this degree.

If you have found yourself in the emergency room or recovery ward following a nasty accident in which your own actions were not to blame, it's time for you to take steps to get the compensation you deserve.
You can take the person who caused your injuries to court and demand full financial recompense for the physical and emotional pain that their actions or negligence have caused you.
What Kind Of Compensation Are You Entitled To Receive?
This compensation you are entitled to receive includes funds for settling your hospital and insurance bills, as well as outstanding charges for any programs of physical or emotional therapy that you may have needed to undergo.
It also includes full recompense for any time you have missed from work, or compensation for being fired from that job because of your inability to report while in the hospital or at home recovering from your injuries.
If you have had to surrender items of property, such as a car, boat, or motorcycle, due to repossession because you could not keep up with your payments, this certainly falls under the heading of compensation you are entitled to demand that the person who caused your accident provide.
Finally, if you have received an eviction notice, or been evicted from your apartment or home, you can demand that you receive full compensation for your suffering and inconvenience.
Never Be Afraid To Stand Up For Your Rights In Court
You should never, under any circumstances, be afraid to stand up for your rights in a court of law. Even if the insurance company that represents the defendant you are suing issues threatening notices, or does its best to discredit you and your claim before the case even gets to court, you should stand firm in your convictions and press your suit.
A qualified personal injury lawyer can fight the counterclaims made by the opposing insurance company and force them to come to an equitable and agreeable settlement in order to close the case.
What Can A Personal Injury Lawyer Do To Help You Win Your Case?
There are a number of very important reasons to hire a personal injury lawyer in order to press your case to a successful conclusion. For one thing, a qualified legal professional can help organize all of the material you need to prove that your injuries were caused by the negligence or malice of the other party.
Eyewitness accounts, police and medical documents, insurance company documents, and other important items can be used by your personal injury lawyer to prove your side of the story and get you the full settlement you need to pay off your bills and restart your life. Without this essential assistance, you will have great difficulty in making a case that a judge will regard as legitimate.
Contact A Toronto Personal Injury Lawyer Today
There are a host of personal injury lawyers in Toronto, such as HSH Lawyers among others, that can quickly help you get the settlement you deserve in order to compensate you for your lost income, medical bills, pain, and emotional suffering. A personal injury lawyer is your best bet to regain your financial independence in order to get back on the right footing and get on with your life.
