It went by so fast... We spent the morning of our third day at The Sundance Film Festival primarily relaxing. We were car lagged from the trip and really had no chance to catch our breath. The rest was needed since we had two screenings to go to, which may not sound like a great deal, but this being our first time at the festival (as well as our first time navigating Park City's Transit system) seemed like enough to keep us busy. Our first film was actually a collection of films, The Shorts Program 3.
All three of us have been looking forward to this day for over two months. We had talked about going to Sundance several times, but it seemed to get filed under the "Someday" category.
The "Someday" category is reserved for this kind of aspiration along with "I'll find a better job", "I'll go back to school" or the always popular "I'll stop fetishizing Princess Leia in that gold bikini". Well, CBP (as a whole) can finally cross Sundance off our "Someday" list. We leave tomorrow morning. We will be seeing three film selections:
Howdy, This is a relatively recent film and the Supper Club's first documentary. We chose it because of our upcoming trip to the Sundance Film Festival as well as our admiration for writer Hunter S. Thompson. We thoroughly enjoyed the film and would recommend it to anyone with an interest in Thompson's writing or fringe writers of the 50s-70s. In honor of this film we made 50 cent Street Tacos as described in Thompson's novel The Rum Diary.
In my mind, Jeff Anders exists in the same universe as Gov't. Tit.
This is a semi-teaser for our Next Gov't. Tit adventure to be posted before Christmas. You may have heard a snippet of this in our 48 Hour Film "No Place I'd Rather Be". Enjoy.
The meaning of Christmas... That is the theme of so many Christmas specials and ours is no exception.
I was turned onto this video about a year ago. I found it extremely creative and apt for this time of year. While I think the trailer is hilariously brilliant, I can't imagine a whole movie like this. Anyway, check it out:

As Samsung Electronics ushered in the era of foldable phones by unveiling the Galaxy Fold, global smartphone makers are pushing to develop more advanced foldable phones.
For instance, Samsung Electronics has patented a smartphone that can be worn on the wrist like a watch, and Apple is said to be preparing a foldable phone that can be folded in and out.
In 2018, Samsung Electronics filed a patent application with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) for a smartphone technology that could be bended, according to LetsGoDigital, a Dutch online magazine specializing in information technology, on March 13. This patent was disclosed on March 7.
The report says the device can bend in one direction and curl up, allowing users to wear it on their wrist. When the flexible phone is fully unfolded, it shows an elongated display. A magnet is placed at both ends of the bendable smartphone to prevent it from falling off when it is worn on the wrist. Cameras are mounted on the front and back of the smartphone.
In addition, Samsung Electronics is reportedly developing two new foldable phone models – an out-folding model and a smartphone that can be vertically folded.
Apple is expected to release a foldable iPhone this year. Apple is accelerating the development of the foldable iPhone by receiving a flexible display sample from Samsung Display. The display for the foldable iPhone is 7.2 inches, which is 0.1 inch smaller than the Samsung Galaxy Fold's display (7.3 inches). Apple filed a patent on the foldable phone with the U.S. Patent Office in February. The patent document depicts the foldable iPhone which is not horizontally folded like those of Samsung Electronics and Huawei but is vertically folded. In particular, it can be folded in and out.
As Samsung Electronics and Huawei announced their plans to launch Android operating system (OS)-powered foldable phones and Apple began to develop its foldable phone, the foldable phone market is expected to grow faster than expected by many experts.
As consumers began to be tired of using their bar-type smartphones, if a foldable phone of a reliable brand comes out, it can quickly replace old bar-type smartphones. However, the key is whether smartphone makers will be able to lower the prices of their foldable phones to reasonable levels.
Samsung Electronics and Huawei are trying to lower the price barriers. "We will lower prices of foldable phones to about 1,000 euros in a year or two," CEO Richard Yu of Huawei said in a recent interview with foreign reporters. "I believe that foldable phones will become the mainstream of the smartphone market." Huawei's first foldable phone, the Mate X, costs 2,299 euros (about 2.93 million won).

A number of boats have turned up recently, heading west. Never before have I met such a miserable bunch of sailors. I thought it was just me but this morning a friend of ours who was cleaning her boat asked "What is it about these people?" They simply cannot bring themselves to say 'hello'." She is a cheery lady who could make even Scrooge smile. What do you think? Let us know.
End Of The Line
After over a year of podcasts documenting the Vasco Da Gama rally this is the final one that sees Emma, Katy, Liz and Jamie safely arrive at their final destination. Not without the odd storm, however.
The Backwaters Of Alleppey In Kerala
Apparently, according to some 'Bucket Lists', the backwaters of Kerala are a must-see before dying. Indeed, the National Geographic Traveller places the backwaters in the 'top 50 destinations of a lifetime'. Having now ticked this off my own bucket list I can honestly say I agree with the sentiment. This log entry counts as a proper log entry, what with it being a two-day trip on a boat, so in old school style I've put together a words-and-pictures account of this most incredible place, which includes video clips and a link to Google Earth so you can put it all in perspective.

This podcast is not to be listened to whilst eating. You've no doubt heard that travelling in India can be plagued by cases of Delhi Belly and this week neither Katy nor Jamie escaped its wrath. This is a step-by-step account of a rather hilarious day that was only funny for the observers.
The Western Ghats Of Tamil Nadu
The Western Ghats is a huge mountain range that runs down from the centre of India to the south, where it divides the states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu. All of these images were taken in the hill station of Kodaikanal.

In your first phase of training, you will learn the basics. You will learn how to:
Once you have become proficient in these areas, you will be ready for your first supervised solo.
Average 20-25 hours.
In this phase, you'll really start to see how to use the airplane to go places. A cross country is defined as a flight greater than 50 nautical miles from the airport from where the flight originated. You'll learn how to:
You will fly 1 or 2 small cross countries with your CFI. You will then be signed off to fly 2 solo cross countries. You will also complete your required night flying. By the end of this phase, you will be ready to take the FAA knowledge exam, which we administer at our ISP location. You will get the results to this exam immediately.
In this phase, your CFI will review all maneuvers and skills which you have learned in Stages 1 and 2. During this stage, you will sharpen your skills to the guidelines of the FAA Practical Test Standards (PTS). Your CFI will review material found in the FAA Oral Exam Guide in preparation of your practical flight test.
After each stage is completed, you will have a "Prog Check". This flight is done with our Assistant Chief Pilot. He will fly with you while you perform all the maneuvers you have recently reviewed with your flight instructor. Don't worry, it's not a test but more of an evaluation. After the flight he will let your CFI know which areas may need additional training.
The FAA requires that you have a minimum of 40 hours logged in order to qualify for your Private Pilot Certificate. Keep in mind, the average is about 70 hours. The time it takes depends greatly on your frequency of lessons. Generally, the more you fly, the faster you'll get your license. The average cost for obtaining your private pilot certificate is about $10,000. We also offer two different clubs and weekly specials to help reduce the cost of your training.

text: Mike Schoby - November 10, 2011 Help Hunting, Order PETA Stickers It sounds counterintuitive, but joining PETA may be the best thing you can do to save hunting — and your kids.While doing some research, I stumbled on PETA kids the other day. Shocking, staggering, disgusting, sobering — call it what you want; if you thought PETA wasn't bad enough, check out what they are doing to brainwash your kids. Taken right out of the Big Tobacco Joe Camel marketing plan, PETA is creating a fun, safe, supportive place to completely fill your kids brains' with mounds and mounds of steaming horseshit.Hate them as much as you wish, but you have to give them props for understanding the battle for your hunting rights is not going to be won — or lost — in the next few years; it will be a generational thing, and they are looking at the end game: your kids.What can you do about it? For far too long, hunters have written PETA and their ilk off as extremists that really don't have any real impact on our lifestyle — they are wrong. Since their inception barely 30 years ago, they are now a multi-million dollar force to be reckoned with. With a marketing budget over $30 million, it is hard to offset their negative impact to our sport, but there are some small steps you can take. Start by signing up to get their free sticker pack. They will send you a pack, which costs them at least a buck to produce and mail. Typical of their own pandering nature, they ask for donations to help off set the cost when you receive the sticker — of course, ignore that. Promptly throw the entire envelope, donation form and stickers away — or do as I did and use them as barrel stickers on your favorite shotgun. My "fur is murder" sticker gets a chuckle out of everyone I hunt with. Then pass this message on to everyone you know. With 13 million hunters helping out, we should be able to deplete their budget rather quickly and keep there insidious message from reaching kids.P.S. Sending photos to PETA with a limit of greenheads and your new bedazzled PETA-sticker-gun may be over the top — but that is up to you. I did. GET THE NEWSLETTER Join the List and Never Miss a Thing.

Tim Redfern talks to acclaimed bearded drag lady, environmentalist and now rock n roll star Timberlina about their new show FFS!! which comes to CPT 3-5 November, part of Shoot the Breeze two weeks of work addressing climate change and the environment.
As I arrive, Timberlina greets me at the front door in a houndstooth twinset and a pair of oven gloves.
Tim: Hi Timberlina
Timberlina: Oh hi Tim, do come on in. I'm just up to my elbows in marmalade, so let me just move the pan to the back of my geothermically heated Aga range. Take a seat, there's tea in the pot on the table. Help yourself.
Tim: Thanks Timberlina. Tell me about your new show, FFS!! What's it all about?
Timberlina: Well basically it's about realising you've spent a lifetime worrying about the environment and the threat of imminent ecological destruction and that there's not much you can do. All articulated through a bunch of pithy fun songs and joyous eco-banter.
Tim: Joyous Eco-banter? Sounds good. What can we expect?
Timberlina: Well frankly you have to laugh really, because the whole thing is so absurd and if you don't laugh you cry. I wanted to explore the dichotomy of the person inside that worries alone versus everybody else in the outside world who probably feel the same but can't really talk about it.
Plus I just realised that I'd had it up to here with this constant state of anxiety about the planet when let's face it, on the whole people don't care that much about it.
Tim: Why don't people care?
Timberlina: Quite simply because we're all too self obsessed nowadays. We're not taught how to take proper responsibility, or undertake genuine guardianship of the world that surround us. We're taught how to do marketing and be good consumers rather than to be great citizens. I think it's morally abhorrent.
Tim: And this is a comedy show?
Timberlina: Yes of course!
Tim: I see. What moved you to create a show about this subject?
Timberlina: Well I've tried it before to be honest and it's a tricky business to deal with (environmentalism) without making something that's either excruciatingly worthy, or that preaches to the converted. It's the massive elephant in the room, especially at dinner parties, but also in schools and in our everyday. It's complex!
Tim: Right.
Timberlina: Basically the anxieties we have and the responsibilities we attempt to undertake to be green are nothing in the context of a global system that sets out to necessitate a perpetual cycle of consumption, pain and suffering.
Once you leave education and have to fend for yourself, you realise how so much of the minutiae of the everyday is detrimental to the planet, but at the same time one is swept along and forced to accept this is just the way it is. One might call it the hegomony.
Furthermore, if you don't go along with it, then you're chastised and labelled an outsider, a freak, a hippy, a tree hugger. It's really rather calculated. And it's this nuanced guff that needs to stop if we don't want the world to end. It's a blooming Pandora's box! Once you've opened it, it can be quite hard to relax.
Tim: Is there any hope then?
Timberlina: Absolutely! There's always hope and I think things are changing- renewables are giving fossil fuels and in fact nuclear a run for their money. The Elon Musks of the world are just so inspiring and make the Trumps, and frankly the conservative parties of this world, look rather redundant.
Tim: Where did the music come from?
Timberlina: Well I've been noodling on a guitar for as long as I can remember, but in the last few years of my self imposed semi-isolation and stoic subsistence I've finally learnt a few new chords and writing songs has been and continues to be a great way to deal with frustration.
Added to which I've also got to buy a great new outfit for the show.
Tim: What can we expect?
Timberlina: Well all I will say is that it's a departure from my usual look and it's fabulous. And I compromised my whole ethical principles on the shoes, but they look sensational and that's what counts, right?
Tim: Er, yes, I suppose.
Timberlina's hilarious brand new solo show, FFS!! about eco anxiety and other worries articulated through Rock n Roll, blues and joyous Eco-woe is at Camden People's Theatre 3-5 November. Friday 3rd & Saturday 4th at 9pm, Sunday 5th at 7pm. Supported by Arts Council England.

The temperatures in Northwest Arkansas can be in the 70s or higher for much of the year, so most homeowners are running their air-conditioning systems regularly. However, if you or your loved ones suffer from allergies, that can mean an exacerbation of symptoms because contaminants get into your indoor air, and are hard to remove.
You can minimize the irritation or allergy symptoms by ensuring that your HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) system is maintained properly year-round. In fact, try these three HVAC maintenance tips to help you fend off indoor allergies:
- Change your filters regularly. A regular filter change ensures that you're removing contaminants from your airflow. Checking your filter monthly, and changing it as often, or at least every eight weeks, also ensures proper airflow through your ductwork. Minimizing the effort that your HVAC system has to expend to push air through clogged filters decreases energy consumption and leads to savings on your utility bills.
- Seal leaky ducts. Any loss in treated air translates directly into money lost from your wallet. If ducts are leaking, you're probably paying to cool and dehumidify areas of your home other than the living space. Worse, though, is that contaminants can be drawn into your indoor air through these breaches.
- Keep up with preventive maintenance. Your HVAC system can benefit from an annual service just as your vehicles do. A tune-up optimizes the performance of the entire system, and minimizes the risk of allergic reaction to system contamination. For instance, the hot and humid conditions inside some A/C components can encourage the growth of mold. Mold spores transmitted to your living space will aggravate allergies.
The installation of a high-efficiency particulate arrestor — usually called a HEPA filter — can stop more than 99 percent of all airborne contamination. Asthmatics and allergy sufferers, the elderly and young children often benefit most, but we're all better off breathing air that doesn't contain spores, microbes and particles of dead dust mites. HEPA filters even remove the molecules we interpret as smells, like the odor of tobacco smoke.
At Paschal Heat, Air, Geothermal & Generators, we've been serving the Northwest Arkansas region for more than 40 years. We conduct service calls seven days a week, at your convenience. Contact us today to schedule an HVAC maintenance call, or a consultation to determine if an upgrade to a HEPA filter would be right for you and your loved ones.
Our goal is to help educate our customers about energy and home comfort issues (specific to HVAC systems). For more information about maintenance and other HVAC topics, download our free Home Comfort Resource guide.

Look great
by hockessin, DE -
these look great and are a very affordable option
by Nate
I purchased these wheels for my 1996 Nissan 240sx because I did my research on wheel specs. The Mustang wheel specs are absolutely perfect for my car. I saw the price for these wheels and couldn't complain at all. They look good, fit perfectly, and from what I can tell, they're pretty durable. I will definitely be purchasing another set of these sometime in the near future
by Nate
For the price these are amazing. They're durable, look great, and the price couldn't be beaten. If anyone owns a Nissan 240sx these are the perfect size

ORLANDO, Fla. — A man caught trying to carry a gun into Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom was charged with carrying a concealed firearm, according to Orange County sheriff's deputies.
On Tuesday afternoon, park security found a 9 mm Hi-Point in the backpack of Terry Levearl, 29, of Daytona Beach, at the Ticket and Transportation Center bag check line, the arrest affidavit said.
Deputies said Levearl told them he normally keeps the gun in his car, but he switched cars and always keeps the gun with him. He said he forgot the weapon was in the backpack, according to law enforcement.
The affidavit said the pistol was in a holster, and there were two loaded magazines attached to the holster.
Levearl does not have a concealed carry permit, authorities said.
His bail was set at $2,500.

You're injured in an automobile accident or fall in a grocery store. After getting the medical help you need, go to a lawyer. Research lawyers on the web or ask a friend for a recommendation. Check out one of the Stephenville, TX, lawyers with experience in representing clients who have been injured in personal injury accidents.
Initial Consultation
The initial consultation with the lawyer is free. Explain to the lawyer what happened. The lawyer will evaluate your case and determine if the case is valid and how much the case is worth.
Hiring the Lawyer
If you hire the lawyer, you still don't have to pay anything. The lawyer only gets paid if you obtain compensation—either through a settlement, through arbitration, or after a trial. The lawyer's pay is usually one-third of what you receive or one-half if the case goes to trial. Most cases don't go to trial.
The Investigation
Your personal injury lawyer will investigate the case, visit the accident scene, and interview witnesses. If you're having trouble paying bills because you can't work, the lawyer can contact creditors to explain what is going on. Let the lawyer know about your medical treatment and prognosis as well as your employment status. The lawyer may ask you to keep a diary of the pain you experience and any daily activities you can no longer perform.
The Negotiation
Your lawyer will work with the insurance company to get the best settlement possible. The lawyer will discuss any settlement offer with you. The lawyer will set out the pros and cons, but, in the end, you decide whether to accept or reject the offer.
In some cases, the claim may be heard by an arbitrator, a neutral party. Your lawyer will present your case and try to reach an agreement with the other party.
The Trial
The litigation process may be lengthy. Each side will engage in discovery. This may be in the form of interrogatories (a list of questions). You may be asked to give a deposition, where you are questioned by the other side's lawyer. Expect delays while motions are filed and argued.
When your day in court arrives, the lawyer will present your case, examine you and other witnesses, and argue the case. The judge or jury will decide whether you win and how much compensation you receive.

originally published January 22, 2011
One great Jewish Leader confided with me, we Jews are entitled to our opinions of course, but the level of dismissiveness is IMHO too high; unacceptable.
I was debating parshanut with a former Orthodox scholar. I pointed to him that Onkelos supported my hypothesis that Rivkah induced Yaakov to usurp the Brachah al pi n'vuah.
He dismissed this as "what is Onkelos - a mind reader?"
Certainly we may object to Onkelos' take on any passuq. Rashi does so respectfully EG in P. B'shalach on the word "ozzy".
But this dismissiveness on the part of the former Orthodox scholar wasn't part of his adherence to some objective scientific methodology over obscurantist beliefs! This was disdain from a position of moral superiority in order to further an agenda of portraying Yaakov as a usurper, and Jewish Tradition is to be condemned for defending our Patriarch.
Is his dismissive attitude co-incidental to his abandonment of Torah-True Judaism. I think not. It is true that there is dismissiveness WITHIN the Orthodox world itself. To the extent that it fosters a dismissive atmosphere, they too must account for the trade-off

Our Cake of Twenty-Three Percent
As of 2013, Ohio's population was thirteen-million people. Of those, 7.75 million are said to be registered to vote. This is 59.6% of the population. Only 3.1 million people cast ballots in the 2014 mid-term election. This is roughly 40% of those registered and a mere 23% of all citizens in the state. While lack of registration of election day means its impossible to vote, one does have significant swaths of time to register to vote. So-called "motor-voter" laws encourage voter registration by including the ability to register to vote at DMV offices.
One wonders why one wouldn't vote. Yes, some argue that a single vote has no difference (reducing down to being a 1 in 10 million chance of being decisive), but statistics are unrelated factors here. Instead, I view voting as an act of participation. To be a citizen in a democracy is to be a member of a social machine of sorts, a human construct designed to have human representation as its gears and parts. We vote for representatives who form symbolic collectives of our community who then go on to represent our views in government. The idea is that these representatives will enact, detract or propose legislation that reflects our collective belief. This, of course, is Civics 101 and stupid, simple logic.
But what are we to make of a system where 23% of the population participate. Imagine society as a car. How would a car that is 23% complete function? How might a child respond to a birthday cake that is 23% whole? Unfortunately this is just the cake we've baked. Worse yet, while the solution remains in grasp (people can register and vote), the likelihood that they will remain highly doubtful. We live in a world where people will camp outside stores to buy the latest model of expensive electronic toys and yet find no reason to bubble in the teeny tiny dots of a ballot. What purpose does it have? some ask. One wonders where the hesitancy comes in? Is it useless? Well, so what. What other daily chores do we complete that have no functional utility? To vote is to participate and build the machinery of state. At the very least, vote simply to have the right to complain. See those who complain without voting as the baker's complaining about how bad their 23% completed cake is. What would we say to them? Finish your work, do your job. Low voting rates are tragic. One wonders how such lack of concern for a civic action stems from a country where people died for such a right. Though I know that no one reads this, please, if so inspired take the second to register:
No Photos, Please
The cameras are everywhere. From pockets to street corners, to concerts and games, the world is full of image and video capturing devices. One can venture into the eyes of these devices without willingly participating. Walk the dog on the trail, take a friend to a concert and one might just be photographed.
Given that one might not desire such "captures" to take place, modern technology should include an option to protect the identity of those involved. If one does not want to be captured, he or she should have the right to be blurred or distorted in some form that renders the captured image free of identifying marks.
As Native Americans were suspicious of the photograph, contemporary citizens might find similar concerns with technology of today. For whatever reason one feels uncomfortable it is to the benefit of all involved that technology work to embrace the rights of privacy and establish means to remove the unintended subjects of photography.
Consensus Conversations
While cultural values vary from community to community, it is society's role to facilitate discussion and enforcement. Varied and wide-ranging, the perspectives we hold stem from numerous sources.
Perhaps a religious group believes in varied rights between the genders, or another feels that certain foods should not be eaten. These are real examples from our society that we allow to exist and often celebrate as unique features of the group. Of the Amish or other orthodox communities we recognize a unique way of living and see their existence as a sign that we live in a rational and fair society. Only tyrants squash any sense of "other."
Who is to say that one group's ideas are better than another? As a society we collectively discuss the varied ideas and come to a consensus about ideal rules. Such "universal values" come as products of consensus. We allow for massive differences and yet work to make sense of the diversity. What is best for the group is not decided by a specific person; instead it is a concept determined by a massive conversation. One of our greatest accomplishment as a society is this allowance for diversity.
Cashing Out
A fascinating discussion on transactions takes place in this EconTalk podcast from 2007. In it Viviana Zelizer discusses the confounded relationship we have with 'intimacy' and 'money'. She observes that society sees these as distinct cultural norms and strives to keep them separate.
How does money taint experience? Are there moments when a cash equivalent is simply rude? Attend a dinner party and choose to give your host a $20 bill "I know you wanted wine, but this is so much better." Say a neighbor learns of another community member being ill. Coming to her door, she offers chicken soup and says, "I hope this kills the sickness." Does the neighbor offer cash?" When does rudeness make its entrance?
Money makes things murky. We pay for food from the grocery but never at family holidays. Is the fastest way to ruin Thanksgiving the act of leaving $10 on the table. "This isn't a restaurant", this hose might say. And yet both restaurant and family meals involve the consumption of food. In both situations another space is used. Wherein lies the difference?
Relationships are key. In family dinners the introduction of money symbolizes a misunderstanding of the transaction. Money is not working here: the family meal is one in which emotion is transacted. "I care for you so this is free." Our grocer does not "care for us" in this sense: their business is dependent on our money to continue in its function.
What role does money play in human life? With currency we exchange one thing for another. The bottle of water is a dollar. Exchange your dollar for the water and the transaction takes place. Economies function on these most basic actions. And yet, despite this seemingly simplistic action we manage to complicate the issue. Perhaps it is because these transactions are so cold and simple that introducing them into intimate relationships spell trouble. The payment of cash is one without emotion. I want it so I give it. What function does money play? Often its a symbol of indifference that, divorced of our emotion, works to get to what we want without the murky work of feelings.
Artistic Picks
To assert one's identity is to re-assert and codify identity politics. Why was one selected for this position? What qualifications garnered the individual with the opportunity? In moments of competition literally person versus people- the factors that are used to make a decision are more important than the decision itself. Yes, the ways you decide are far more important than what you decide.
To provide one with an opportunity on the basis of identity is to disregard or discount skills unrelated to identity. A great artist is judged not by background, heritage or culture; instead, it is the work itself that persists through the ages. Art outlasts the artist. Contemporary culture has moments where background, heritage, or culture trump artistic skill. In these situations the artist's work is not the major focus; instead, we ask where did she come from? Who or what does she love? Or, worse yet, how can her selection say something about who we are?
All decisions are expressions of the deciders. President George H.W. Bush is often quoted as saying he "is the decider" when challenged that his vice president Dick Cheney was actually in charge. We treasure our authority and use it explain who we are. In selecting someone we express a preference for perspective. Selections are symbols and in decisions where people are involved (i.e., artistic nomination) symbolic stand-ins for our beliefs.
Nominations of artists are particularly interesting on a meta level. Artists often work with symbols and manipulate meaning. One who nominates an artist for a position is manipulating symbolic manipulators to manipulate a symbol.

Incredible Lessons I've Learned About Tips
Benefits of a Wellness Tracker
The most vital thing that advances great wellbeing and a decent physical prosperity is via performing common activities that we ought to embrace in our consistent schedules. On top of doing great physical activities, we must own a wellness tracker that we wear on our wrists to transmit data on our vital signs such that we are always aware of the state of our bodies that will encourage us to track everything in a better manner. Other than this, there are a few different reasons why one should claim and utilise a wellness tracker. This is an awesome instrument, particularly when you have heaps of things to do on a restricted day and age. Thus, it's an ideal opportunity to get a wellness tracker that suits individuals' financial plan and wellness reason. Always keep this in mind when buying such a device.
A wellness device doesn't just play out the errand of cautioning you on the wellness level given your essential signs yet additionally goes about as a consistent friend. The fundamental reason for this watch is to monitor a man's wellness routine and inspire him to remain fit.

Since amid the day we are exceptionally dynamic, we ought to have a decent dozing status to permit tissue recovery and rest our bodies.
Having a decent wellbeing is a correct thing and observing how we accomplish it is far better. This would enable one to improve to objectives and increase productivity. Thus, one should purchase a wellness tracker which makes it workable to know whether he or she is advancing the correct way or not.

No Woman's Land: on the frontlines with female reporters
Anna Reitman
Freelance journalist
Published by the International News Safety Institute (INSI) "No Woman's Land: On the frontlines with female reporters" offers an inspiring, at times harrowing, look at what life for women journalists is like on the (often violent) frontlines they visit.
It came about following a spike in requests for personal safety advice as news spread of the sexual assault suffered by American journalist Lara Logan while reporting Egypt's revolution for CBS News.
"I do not really understand how I survived that night in Tahrir Square last February…And I now know how easy it is to die," Logan writes in the foreword.
"Not in an intellectual way, more of a visceral, carnal understanding that obliterates the light."
Helena Williams, news assistant at INSI, who compiled and edited the book along with deputy director Hannah Storm, says the high profile incident struck a chord with people in the industry.
"It is a dangerous profession and journalists need to be prepared when they are covering events like the Arab Spring…which has been relentless for news crews…and what happened to Lara brought one of [those] dangers to the forefront," says Williams, adding that proceeds from the book will go to providing safety training for female journalists.
In some ways, the book reflects an urgent need for women venturing into the profession to get advice from women who have already been there.
If Logan's story presented the catalyst for the book, then the death of Sunday Times correspondent Marie Colvin in Syria just before its launch on International Women's Day this year, gave it urgent meaning.
In her honour and memory, a tribute was held at the event which brought together BBC's Lyse Doucet as moderator, war photographer Kate Brooks, who both contributed to the book, Sky News' Sarah Whitehead, CNN's Nima Elbagir, Reuters' Maria Golovnina and BBC World News correspondent Andrew Roy.
The discussion raised many of the same questions that the book's contributors answered through their stories; stories characterised by diverse opinions from across cultures, resulting in interesting, honest, albeit sometimes contradictory reflections.
BBC's Frances Harrison, whose photo appears on the cover, defends the choice to wear the "unusual status of foreign correspondent mother" and writes openly about being tear gassed while seven months pregnant, about her seven-year old son's panic attacks at school and accepting that her career may be limited if she wants a family-friendly foreign posting in a place with good schools.
So are there in fact advantages to being a woman? Is there a stereotype that "western women" need to be protected? Should you be a war correspondent and a mother?
Williams and I are both graduates from City University London's journalism school. In her first few days, she was told that women had to be "quite tough" in such a male dominated profession.
I was told by one of City's lecturers that a certain Reuters journalist should not have been hired because she was "prickly" – I had been asking about her because she reported on some issues affecting women that tend to not see the light of day.
In other words, women entering the profession are made aware that it is going to be a rough climb, without much support. So don't expect any.
It is partly what makes these contributions from a group of 40 climbers from across a dozen countries such a welcome and valuable addition to my shelf.
But I have a confession too. I did not read the book from beginning to end, but rather picked it up at moments, choosing a random vignette, taking time to observe the accompanying photography.
Doing so keeps me inspired to move forward but also reminds me that I have been safe. Though I have navigated conflict zones, I have never been kidnapped, raped, beaten or otherwise harmed. But I also know how quickly situations can become chaotic.
Contributors to the book detail horrors they faced for telling the truth or going ahead with the story: voices on the phone implying children are fair game, colleagues found decapitated with warning signs pinned to their bodies, being swarmed by mobs, sniper bullets, witnessing explosions and the aftermath.
Just as important, however, are the accompanying photos of street scenes, shots of interviews in progress, protests. The image of a woman whose face is fully covered taking a photo with a mobile phone.
Many of the book's contributors talk about their work for human rights groups. One photo taken for the British Red Cross shows women in northern Bangladesh, snapped by Jenny Matthews, who has worked in El Salvador, Lebanon, West Bank, Chechnya, Afghanistan and Iraq.
An editor once told her she could not go to Eritrea because he didn't believe women should go to war zones.
In 2003, she published "Women and War" and exhibits her work internationally, her photos highlighting the disproportionate impact of wars on women and children.
"INSI always says it is not worth dying for a story. It's not worth going into an impossible situation. Perhaps there is a romantic image of the reckless war correspondent going to the front lines, but it is not worth risking your life," Williams says.
She adds that one of the common themes among women in the book was respect for culture, a notion backed up by some final words from Lyse Doucet.
Doucet writes: "My own view, which has stood me in good stead, is that in many situations one of the best weapons is good manners, as well as a suitable does of humour rooted in an understanding how it's used in the country where you find yourself."
They are comforting words – that a healthy dose of common sense prevails. Other practical tips can be found in the back of the book as well as some notes on hostile environment training. For anyone considering the latter, my own experience was eye-opening. And as it turns out, Williams is set to go on the same course soon.
After finishing our interview and walking out past the buzzing Reuters newsroom overlooking Canary Wharf, I wish her the best of luck.
The book can be purchased from the INSI here.
Wow! The book seems fantastic, thanks for such a great review.

New Relic APM's PHP agent supports distributed tracing, which lets you see the path that requests take as they travel through a distributed system. This document contains PHP-specific tips to enable distributed tracing for a PHP application or service.
Enable distributed tracing for PHP
When distributed tracing is enabled, it implicitly disables cross application tracing. The PHP agent will ignore the cross application tracing configuration value, and act as though this value is set to
To enable or disable distributed tracing for the PHP agent:
- If applicable, update your PHP agent to support distributed tracing (version 8.4 or higher, although we recommend version 9.0 or higher for the most complete functionality).
Make sure that the transaction tracer configuration option is enabled (default is
newrelic.transaction_tracer.enabled = true
Enable (or disable) distributed tracing for the PHP agent with the
distributed_tracing_enabledconfiguration option:
newrelic.distributed_tracing_enabled = true
Set the transaction tracer threshold value to a suitable value. Recommendation:
- If you want to make all transactions eligible for a distributed trace, set this value to
- If you are only interested in traces for longer running transactions, or if generating a trace for every transaction creates unacceptable application performance, set this value higher than
For example:
newrelic.transaction_tracer.threshold = 0
- If you want to make all transactions eligible for a distributed trace, set this value to
Be sure to restart your web server (or other PHP SAPI) so the agent will pick up the newly configured values.
Leverage automatic distributed tracing instrumentation
The PHP agent automatically will instrument a number of native PHP functions, as well as some third party HTTP clients, with distributed trace information. These include:
- PHP function
- PHP functions
- Guzzle 4, Guzzle 5, Guzzle 6
- Drupal's
drupal_http_request function
- Laravel's queue jobs
Set trace detail level
Distributed tracing support depends on the PHP agent's transaction tracer. When distributed tracing is enabled, a span event is created for each segment seen by the transaction tracer.
As span events are sampled, the PHP agent will prioritize span events related to external calls above other span events, which are then recorded in descending order of their duration.
If you find that there are too many unimportant span events being reported for PHP function calls, you can reduce the detail of the transaction tracer by setting
newrelic.transaction_tracer.detail to
0. You may then use the
newrelic.transaction_tracer.custom configuration setting or the
newrelic_add_custom_tracer API method to add trace segments and span events for the specific PHP function or methods you want to add to your traces.
For PHP agent versions 8.4 to 8.7: When distributed tracing is enabled, these versions behave as if
newrelic.transaction_tracer.detail is set to
0 (as described above), which results in PHP function calls not generating span events. To get span events related to PHP function calls, update to version 9.0 or higher.
Manually instrument applications and services
If you're using an unsupported library, or have a non-HTTP based distributed system component (such as messaging queues), you can use the PHP agent API to manually identify transactions to be included in a distributed trace. This is a two step process:
- Modify your service or application to create a distributed trace payload.
- Modify your service or application to accept distributed trace payloads created by other transactions or requests.
The following example uses a generic message/job queue. While the actual details will vary depending on what sort of system you're trying to add to a distributed trace, the core concepts are the same. Also, while we've used a job queue as an example, you can use these methods with any distributed system component.
When you create a payload, you're telling New Relic you want this request or transaction or request to participate in a distributed trace. When you accept a payload, you're linking the current request or transaction with its parent request or transaction.
For more information about using manual instrumentation to get more detail or to see connections between services, see the documentation about distributed tracing payload APIs.
- Create a distributed trace payload
Somewhere in your application you'll have code that looks or acts like the following:
// create a job object $job = new \Generic\Queue\Job; // set the information needed to run the queue job $job->setData('info', $info); // save the job $job->save();
If you want this job to appear in a distributed trace, you need to create a distributed trace payload using
newrelic_create_distributed_trace_payload, and then add that payload to the job's data:
$payload = newrelic_create_distributed_trace_payload(); // create a job object $job = new \Generic\Queue\Job; // set the information needed to run the queue job $job->setData('info', $info); // add the payload data to the job data as a text json string $job->setData('dt_payload', $payload->Text()); // save the job $job->save();
This is step one: You've created a distributed trace payload.
- Accept the distributed tracing payload
Next, somewhere in your application stack you'll have a queue runner that looks or acts like the following:
// create the job runner $jobRunner = \Generic\Queue\Runner; // grab jobs until there aren't any while($job = $jobRunner->next()) { // run the job $job->run(); }
In order to accept a distributed trace payload, use the
// create the job runner $jobRunner = \Generic\Queue\Runner; while($job = $jobRunner->next()) { $payload = $job->getData('dt_payload'); if($payload) { newrelic_accept_distributed_trace_payload($payload); } $job->run(); }
- Optional: Use HTTP safe payload strings
If you need to transport the payload via a mechanism that requires HTTP safe strings, (HTTP headers, URL query strings, POST fields, etc.), the API includes distributed tracing methods and functions that will create and accept HTTP safe versions of the strings.
// create the HTTP safe payload string $payload = newrelic_create_distributed_trace_payload(); $httpSafePayload = $payload->httpSafe(); // ... // accept the HTTP safe payload string newrelic_accept_distributed_trace_payload_httpsafe($httpSafePayload);
Command line PHP programs
PHP programs run from the PHP command line are always sampled by the agent's distributed tracer. Depending on the programs you run, these processes could see an over-representation in your collection of distributed traces. In these situations, you can opt to disable command line instrumentation by using the
per-directory newrelic.enabled setting in your
newrelic.ini files.

Prehab (2) Glenohumeral (Shoulder) Labral Tears: Eccentric Loading
What type of training can I do that has been shown to drastically decrease the likelihood of sustaining a labral tear?
The likelihood of having a labral tear can be reduced by promoting higher levels of shoulder & thoracic (middle) spine flexibility as well as developing the musculature around the shoulder & the scapula.
One of our favorite exercises is called pitch-backs and it involves eccentrically training the rotator cuff. Here's how to performt his exercise:
- Use a theraband or a sport cord that is attached to a wall or has somebody holding it.
- Start by facing towards where the resistance band/cord is attached
- Stagger your stance such that you would in a windup position
- Squeeze your shoulder blades together & get into your cocked phase of throwing
- Take a leap backwards
- Go through your normal throwing motion in a slowed & controlled fashion.
This exercises will both promote scapular stability as well as rotator cuff strengthening in a motion that is functional!

IntroSpect User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) uses AI-based machine learning to spot changes in user behavior that often indicate inside attacks that have evaded perimeter defenses. Security teams are armed with insights into malicious, compromised or negligent users, systems and devices — cutting off the threat before it does damage. Entity360 represents an entity's security-relevant activity regardless of data source, devices used or activity type. It includes a risk score (0 to 100) as well as a full security profile with hours worth of investigation available in a single click. Entity risk scores based on machine learning can account for key factors like the order and time of incidents across various attack stages as well as time since detection and business context.
Accurate, normalized scores mean security analysts can confidently prioritize their efforts. Machine learning-based analytics build baselines for normal behavior of both individual entities and groups by continuously monitoring IT activities — like authentication, remote access, internal access to high-value resources and cloud app usage — across network and log data. Attack detection and forensics are intrinsically tied together, providing analysts with instant access to complete investigative records. Security teams can now triage more efficiently, make more informed decisions, and respond before damage is done. Aruba security provides 360 degree protection by combining ClearPass network access control with behavior analytics-based attack detection and alerting for a complete solution that secures your organization from malicious threats.
Using policy management in a mobile environment, where users connect over wireless and wired networks throughout the day solves a set of entirely new challenges that didn't previously exist. If a device is denied access today, user and it productivity is lost. With the right policy management approach, it organizations can ensure that the growing universe of #GenMobile workers get instant access to the apps, printers and network services they're authorized to use, no matter where they are or what device they have. Mobile devices — authentication services are fairly consistent between AAA and policy management systems.
However, any form of health checks or device interrogation will require a policy management system. A critical policy management capability entails making real-time decisions based on intelligence gathered from devices using NAC and/or MDM agents. the policy management system determines if a device can connect, if remediation is required or if access should be denied. Most it organizations currently rely on active Directory or lDap to assign and enforce security policies for users and devices.
Aruba is in the midst of a massive transition away from networking technologies that were designed for the 20th century when mobile, IoT and cloud did not exist. The surge in mobile and IoT means that the wired and wireless network must deliver more than just connectivity — the network is expected to provide actionable insights about the use of mobile and IoT to justify future investments, so that businesses can adopt new technologies and serve the needs of GenMobile — while keeping the network secure and without breaking the budget.
Cloud networking — Aruba Central manages, monitors and secures wired, Wi-Fi and wide area networks from the public cloud. Thanks to its multi-tenant operation, it enables Aruba and end users to support multiple disparate networks from a single location. Aruba Networks Mobile First Networks are optimized for today's enterprise and SMB environments where mobile and IoT are pervasive.

Enterprises moving to voice and video calling on Wi-Fi need their IT departments to design a wireless infrastructure that supports these apps at high density. Wired infrastructure — the integration of the HP Enterprise and Aruba Networks access portfolios is a key ingredient in Aruba's mobile-first approach. As organizations transition to the digital workplace, they won't need as many ports as before because of the increased use of Wi-Fi. Although a highly mobile workforce means that the majority of users will connect via wireless, the surge in IoT devices and the increasing use of Wi-Fi bandwidth means that the wired infrastructure is critical, too.
Predict network issues before they happen — with the huge scale of devices connecting to the network, IT needs granular visibility into the access layer — at the user, device, and app level — to keep things running without disruptions to the business. Aruba Networks AirWave is a powerful and easy-to-use network management system that manages Aruba Networks wired, wireless, and remote access networks, as well as multi vendor wired and wireless infrastructures.

DC Universe is set to launch it's third original series next week, Doom Patrol. Now, the final trailer for the series gives us our first look at the team in action as well as Alan Tudyk's villainous Mr. Nobody.
Whilst some will no doubt agree with Nobody's sarcastic monologue, that the world does not need more TV super heroes, the Doom Patrol is not your traditional super hero team. Spinning out of DC Universe's inaugural series Titans, Doom Patrol follows a group of outcasts and misfits, more a family than a team, nonetheless they must come together and rise up as heroes if they are to save the world from Nobody's threat.
Doom Patrol is a re-imagining of one of DC's most beloved group of outcast Super Heroes: Robotman, Negative Man, Elasti-Girl, and Crazy Jane, led by modern-day mad scientist Dr. Niles Caulder (The Chief). The Doom Patrol's members each suffered horrible accidents that gave them superhuman abilities – but also left them scarred and disfigured. Traumatized and downtrodden, the team found purpose through The Chief, who brought them together to investigate the weirdest phenomena in existence – and to protect Earth from what they find. Part support group, part Super Hero team, the Doom Patrol is a band of super-powered freaks who fight for a world that wants nothing to do with them. Picking up after the events of Titans, Doom Patrol will find these reluctant heroes in a place they never expected to be, called to action by none other than Cyborg, who comes to them with a mission hard to refuse, but with a warning that is hard to ignore: their lives will never, ever be the same.
Doom Patrol comes from producers Greg Berlanti, Geoff Johns, Sarah Schechter, and Jeremy Carver. The series stars Brendan Fraser, Matt Bomer, Diane Guerrero, Alan Tudyk, April Bowlby, Joivan Wade, and Timothy Dalton, and premieres Friday February 15th on DC Universe.
Chris is a lifelong fan of Disney, Star Wars and super heroes who can't quite believe this golden age of movies and TV we're living in. Having written blogs dedicated to Disney's Aladdin musical and Star Wars Celebration, Chris is excited to be part of the MNN team.

A 21-year-old climber has died in the wake of falling while at the same time handling a course in Ben Nevis' Tower Gully. Police were alarmed to the mishap at about 14:25 on Sunday.
The man was an understudy at Cardiff University and had been an individual from the college's understudies' association mountaineering club.
He was flown by a coastguard helicopter to the Belford Hospital in Fort William where he passed away from his wounds. The man's climbing accomplice also fell however he was able to survive his ordeal. He has been getting treatment at the Belford for "non-perilous wounds".
Sgt Michael Bell, of Police Scotland, stated: "Our thoughts are with the man's friends and family at this very sad time. I would take the opportunity to thank the crew of the HM Coastguard helicopter and Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team for their assistance with this incident."
A spokesman for Cardiff University, stated: "We are aware of the tragic death of a Cardiff University student over the weekend. The next of kin have been notified and we continue to liaise closely with our students' union colleagues. Our immediate thoughts and sympathies are with the family and friends. Advice and support is available to anyone touched by this event."

What Zappar learned from designing an AR kids book
Last year, Zappar's lead designer, Anna Broadhurst, worked with a primary English teacher, Frankie O'Reilly on an augmented reality book for children aged 7-11. The idea came about after O'Reilly noticed that disengaged students were more inclined to pick up a book with a technological element, bridging literature and digital media.
The protagonist of The Boy with his Head Stuck in a Book is a school boy who hates reading. He gets his head literally stuck in a book when he is dragged to a library and flung into a fantastical world full of characters from classic novels to contemporary fiction - the aim being to inspire students to explore these texts in more detail, with minimal nagging from parents and teachers.
We asked Broadhurst to share her learnings and insights from working on the project.
Why did Zappar decide to branch into children's literature, and why now?
We've already seen a huge leap in the integration of publishing and literature with technology over the past couple of years, but there's so much more to offer. When it comes to combining reading and technology, most - if not everyone - would suggest an e-book. Only recently have wider audiences started to climb onboard with technologies like augmented reality and the solutions it can bring to books and education in general.
Something that has been of huge interest is merging the tangible tech that students use and creating a project that resonates with them and gets them excited about reading and picking up a physical book again. Interactive novels, or immersive literature, are one of the key ways to engage students, enhancing the content provided by books with technology. By creating experiences or storylines that have an immersive aspect, educators and innovators can begin to re-engage an unengaged audience.
While working with this kind of innovative tech is exciting, there are certain elements that can prove to be more challenging than others. By incorporating a storybook with technology, there has to be a story that captures the reader's interest and serves a purpose rather than just creating cool experiences that don't really do anything. It's also important to make sure the book isn't saturated with technology, taking away the main point of the project - to encourage children and students to read.
What are some of the unique user experience considerations you had to incorporate?
One of the biggest challenges we faced was when it came to choosing a binding for the book. We had to consider that the user is likely to be using a tablet to scan the pages and as children have smaller hands it would be difficult for them to hold both the book and the device at the same time. To accommodate for this we wanted a binding that would stay open when placed on a table or lap. It also needed to be relatively flat in order for the digital content to track to the page (a curved surface warps the image making it harder for the camera to then detect it successfully).
What evidence do you have to show that AR is a genuine spur to reading, rather than a sexy gimmick?
If someone was to only scan the illustrations in the book, the story wouldn't make complete sense to the user. The aim of AR in literature is instead to ignite curiosity in the reluctant reader and get them to then want to find out more about what is going on in the story. It works the same as traditional picture book illustration, where the text and illustrations work together to tell the full story. AR is just one step up from this by using animation and interactivity to work with the illustration and text. By using the tech in this way, this traditional technique can be extended to slightly older ages who have outgrown picture books but are reluctant to read text only stories, which is why the age range of 7-11 was chosen.
User testing on the book has shown that the kids were indeed inclined to scan a page before reading the text but that after watching and interacting with the animation they then returned to the text to find out the full story, and then spent time travelling between the two - showing that it does successfully engage children in reading itself.
Does it exclude children without internet at home or money to power mobile data?
The purpose of immersive literature is to make a seamless link between tech and reading, and incorporate the technology that people are using more of into picking up a book. It's important to remember that the end goal of ideas like this is to get more people reading, not to get more people reading with their phones. The added immersive element to interactive reading is a huge benefit in the struggle to encourage people to pick up a book, but shouldn't be seen as the be all and end all for those who may not have the access to the technology or funds to run systems like this.
What dead ends/ mistakes did you make along the way?
Part of the original intention was to have a personalised aspect to the digital content and whilst we've since done this at events, where the child gets to take a selfie and then see their head inside of the book, it was never something that materialised in the print version. In our future books this is definitely an aspect we will explore further.
What doesn't work with books and AR?
If the AR tells the full story, it will replace the need for the child to read the text. It needs to only support and enhance the story, engaging the user but in a way that doesn't completely tell it. And the opposite is also true, if the AR adds nothing of value to the storyline then it will only be a gimmick. The print and tech need to go hand in hand to support each other.
How do you see AR changing or developing this year, and how might that affect the book trade?
The future of the AR landscape is going to be really exciting to watch this year. To see this technology become more and more integrated into daily consumer life is a great step for the industry in general, and is sure to provide us with some really innovative campaigns and products in 2018.
The book trade will always be hugely popular, across all ages, however as technology develops it would be interesting to see AR incorporated across literature for different age groups. Perhaps an augmented reality cookbook, bringing recipes to life, or a travel book that allows you to really explore places before you see them in the flesh? Augmented reality opens up a whole host of opportunities across a variety of different industries, and the developments this year in the book trade could be incredibly exciting.
