Quotation autocomplete should not be on by default
In most languages, it is hard enough to properly escape strings as it is. It rarely helps for a text editor to insert extra quotes.
If I place my cursor at the end of this string and tap a single quote:
"did he fire six shots\"or'only five'\""
...it is aggravating to suddenly see:
"did he fire six shots\"or'only five'\""''
It is a severe enough issue that I often edit complex strings outside of Sublime, because this "help" of throwing in single or double-quotes just means "now I have two problems" When you're starting at a line with a dozen quotation marks it's not so easy to discern whether Sublime added one of them.
To be clear, I'm not referring to the behaviour where start and end quotes are added to currently selected text - *that* feature makes much more sense than deleting the selected string. What does not make sense is to add two quotes to the *end of a line* when I only typed one - that has helped me exactly *never* times.
Like a doctor, Sublime should "do no evil" and quietly slipping in a quotation mark when I'm not looking just makes my code buggy. It's frustrating behaviour for an otherwise excellently designed program :)

"I had the hardiness to venture on a journey to the remotest part of North Britain, a country almost as little known to its southern brethren as Kamschatka. I brought home a favourable account of the land. Whether it will thank me or not I cannot say, but from the report I made, and shewing that it might be visited with safety, it has ever since been inondée with southern visitors" Thomas Pennant
The Curious Travellers project is led by P.I. Dr Mary-Ann Constantine (CAWCS) and Co-I Professor Nigel Leask (Glasgow). The project team includes Dr Elizabeth Edwards and Dr Ffion Mair Jones of CAWCS, Aberystwyth, with Dr Alex Deans, Dr Vivien Estelle Williams, and Dr Luca Guariento providing Scottish expertise, transcriptions, and technical support in Glasgow. Constantine and Leask will write separate monographs on the Welsh and Scottish tours respectively, and the research fellows will be writing articles over the course of the four years. The project will produce two freely-available research tools: a database of Pennant's extensive and scattered Correspondence, and a searchable online corpus of some sixty previously unpublished Welsh and Scottish Tours. These will be available through our website, which aims to be a lively source of information about the experience of travel in Scotland and Wales in the period. It will include clickable maps of selected routes and a bibliography of hundreds of published and unpublished Welsh and Scottish tours. Sections of the website will be developed to provide useful resources for the school history curriculum.
Conferences and exhibitions based in national and local museums and libraries across Wales and Scotland will highlight the visual and material aspects of the tour, from landscape-painting to Roman antiquities and natural history. Creative events will include some of our most prominent artists and writers retracing Pennant's itineraries (in all weathers) to create their own modern versions of the Tour; look out for pictures, poems and disgruntled comments on our Pennant Walks blog!
Our project has been funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), and our project partners include Oxford Cultures of Knowledge, whose database at Early Modern Letters Online (EMLO) will house the Pennant Correspondence, and the National Library of Wales, who have allowed us to use images from the digitised illustrated Tour in Wales. We also have close links with Amgueddfa Cymru/National Museum Wales, the National Library of Scotland and Glasgow's Hunterian Museum.

We use Metrologic MS7120 Orbit scanners because of their small size and superb performance. They can be obtained from various sources starting at $256 to $337 depending on where you buy them. It is very important that you do not skimp on the quality of the scanners because if they don't work properly you've just thrown good money after bad. You will need one for each register.
Before the scanners can be used, they must be programmed. Scanners are easy to program as each one comes with an operating manual. All that's required is that you scan the bar codes in the manual to make the scanner do what you want it to do. The scanners do not need to be connected to the POS to program them. They simply need to be powered on. The process to program the scanners is simple:
1. Enter the Program Mode.
2. Reset to Factory Defaults
3. Recall Standard Defaults
4. Disable Line Feed
5. Parity Even
6. Enable UPC prefix ID
7. Expand UPC E to 12 Digits
8. Exit Program Mode.
If at any time during the process you make a mistake, simply start over.
If the scanner does not beep when you pass an item in front of it, your set-up on the scanner is incorrect. You need to reprogram the scanner.
Scanners then need to be connected to Comm 12 on the back of the Edgeport router, which is connected to the Passport. Looking at the back of the router it will be Port 8 on the upper right side of the device. You will need to use a USB/Serial converter to make the connection. Try to scan an item from your stock. The Passport should chirp "Uh-Oh" and report that the item is not found. If not, recheck your connections and try again. You may need to reboot the Passport in order to get the scanners to work.

Dear Teenage Meg
Photo: Meg Pirie / Illustration: Erin McPhee
Dear Teenage Meg;
Lately, you've been on my mind a lot.
You are lucky. You were able to make a few really good friends at the start of high school. Your family loves and supports you. These are people who became your foundations, your dance posse, and your funniest confidantes. But then you hit a rough patch and the world began to unfurl. It was like being alone in a cave; you'd reach out to touch the walls enclosing you, just to make sure there was something there, something solid and real, only to retreat a little further. You didn't tell your friends you felt this way. You didn't tell anybody you felt this way. You resented the solitude but continued to build this enclosing, silently and secretly, all while trying to figure how you could fix this and make this darkness disappear. Did you need to be nicer? Better? Study more? Try harder? One thing was certain: this was all your fault. At your core, so you thought, there was something rotten and unlovable.
This, Teenage Meg, brings me to my next point: Don't do it! Stop it! Enough!
I'm saying that with love, but honestly, this will be one of the biggest revelations in your life. You can't fix everything, including yourself—you can be good, and accomplished, and do everything right, but people are people. And people are flawed (including you), which is what makes us interesting. A never-ending treadmill on the road to perfection and goodness doesn't lead you to any particular destination except disappointment. Life is not a linear path that you can organize with spreadsheets, and control with an intense regimen of self-discipline and obsessive routines. Accomplishments and momentary admiration from others are no substitute for the moment you give yourself permission to actually feel, even when these feelings are messy and stray from 'the plan.' You learned this, slowly but surely.
The cave you found yourself in? That wasn't your fault and it wasn't yours to fix. It was yours to experience. And in its own way, it has been one of your life's greatest gifts and wisest teachers.
After you continued on along your path and the bleak grey dissolved to colour, it still took years to reconnect with the people you shut out. Know what you know now? Everything you felt was okay. Everything you felt was real. Your feelings are not a source of shame. You didn't need to fix it or punish yourself with isolation. You can forgive yourself; this is essential for any life worth living. You are deserving of love and capable of loving with your entire being. The people in your life who are your foundation would have loved you, no matter what. They love you no matter what now.
You might encounter more caves in the future, but I'm glad Adult Meg (most of the time) understands Dumbledore's greatest axiom: "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, when one only remembers to turn on the light."
So just let go a little bit. Accept yourself. Give yourself a break and you will inevitably be easier on the people you love. Please keep listening to Alanis Morrisette, Erykah Badu and TLC. Seek connections with people, and places, and animals. These are all really good things. These are the lights that will see you through the darkest of times.
I'll love you forever.
PS: I really wish you had read this poem. It's called "Wild Geese" by Mary Oliver. I think it might have been helpful, so I'll share it now and hope it resonates with folks reading this now.
You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
For a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about your despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are heading home again.
Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting –
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.

Brunetti, Antonio and Steger, Tim J. (2000) X-Ray spectra background fitting by projection onto convex sets. Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, Vol. 441 (3), p. 504-509. ISSN 0168-9002. Article.
Full text not available from this repository.
An X-ray spectrum is constituted by a set of peaks superimposed to a background (continuum). If a quantitative estimate of the peak areas is required, then the background must be separated from the spectrum. Several algorithms have been proposed in the literature. These algorithms will generally work well when the amplitudes of the peaks are much more intense than the background. We propose a novel method, based on projections onto convex sets. The algorithm have been tested over a large set of spectra, real and simulated. Some of the results obtained in these tests are reported here and are compared to a widely used continuum estimation method, i.e. the orthogonal polynomial decomposition.

Ocean swimming… with shark nets
Shark nets are fairly common across popular Australian tourist beaches, but beyond giving swimmers a perception that they are being protected from sharks, do they actually work?
Jordan Sosnowski is the Advocacy Director for Action for Dolphins, a group that aims to stop cruelty to, and gain legal protection for, small cetaceans (dolphins and other small whales). We chatted about how shark nets probably don't work to keep sharks and swimmers apart, that shark nets have an incredible toll on marine life, that sharks don't hunt you down, that opinions on the use of shark nets are changing, and the non-lethal options that are out there.

When the Doubt is Not Presumed
One of my favorite blogs, for both style and substance, is Capitol Hill Style. She recently published this post, about how women undercut themselves by responding to presumed doubt of their abilities. And it reminded me of a conversation I had with my boyfriend D a month or so ago. Let me tell you a story.
When I started grad school, I had just graduated from an Ivy League university. And went into grad school at a state school near my hometown. Even though it's a top-rated physics graduate program, it would be understandable if I felt like I was going down in the ranks, mostly because I've heard comments to that effect about my graduate alma mater from other graduates of my undergraduate institution. Fine institutions though they may be, the Ivy League is not known for putting out modest alumni. And yet, from the first moment I stepped into a graduate class, I had the overwhelming sense that I shouldn't be in grad school. It's a well-known effect: Impostor Syndrome (or Phenomenon). That feeling that you somehow don't deserve merit you've come by honestly. In fact, the phrase was coined to describe high-achieving women who feel they don't deserve their achievements, and, boy, did I have it in spades. I went through grad school, passing my classes, passing my qualifier, publishing a paper, and writing and defending my thesis, all the time worrying that at any time I might be "found out" as the idiot I really am. To this day, I wonder if getting my PhD was somehow a fluke.
But then I started to look at the world around me. Specifically, my male classmates. I noticed that a lot of them seemed extraordinarily confident in their intelligence, often to the point of being maybe a little annoying. I even watched a first-year grad student argue with the senior grad student on an experiment that a fundamental element of her experiment was wrong, and even though his assertion came from his own flawed understanding of the concepts involved, even though this was an experiment that had been carried out over the course of many years before he'd even gotten there, he refused to back down. There was this quality of many of the incoming grad students that they knew everything. Eventually, I looked around and realized that none of these erroneously overconfident students were female. In fact, in my admittedly small circle of female scientist friends, everyone I've met has had some degree of impostor syndrome coloring their self-perception, while many (if not most) of the men have come in thinking they're the best thing since sliced bread. Even D, my wonderful, open-minded, not-at-all-an-obnoxious-jerk boyfriend said he recognizes that he came in thinking he knew a lot more than he actually did. And the process of grad school wears that down a bit, every time you get a problem that's nearly impossible to solve, or an exam where the high score is a 60%. So many of those men will end up on a mentally level playing field with the women who know they don't know everything. And then you do learn things, and after you've learned enough, you get your PhD and are turned out, a shiny new physicist who's been remade better, stronger, faster. Right?
Except that's not the end of the story. It's very easy to say "You spent seven years learning your subject, so now you should know that you're qualified." But it's not that easy to internalize. And part of the reason for that is that it has to come from you, from your internal monologue, because, well, the world is not always going to be so helpful. That's when you start realizing that this doubt in your ability is not always presumed. It's not always "self-doubt." Some of it is internalized doubt that others express. It's not always explicit, but it's not veiled enough. Every time I get a price quote back from a company that has assumed I'm an administrative assistant rather than a researcher. Every time a machinist calls me "honey" or "sweetheart," or that they're "always happy to help out a pretty girl." Every time a tech tells me I "need to find someone to write [me] some C code" to program the equipment that's not working. That's the doubt that I've been trying so hard not to feel on the inside, flung at me from the outside.
And it gets old. It gets hard. But I don't have to accept it or like it. I don't have to chalk it up to a miscommunication or (my favorite) an overreaction. And I sure as hell don't have to parrot it back myself.

The placement of students into appropriate courses is an important factor that contributes to student success. To make appropriate placement decisions, Middle School teachers will consider multiple sources of data during the decision making process. Teachers give serious consideration to these recommendations in an effort to create a challenging learning environment. Teachers will examine student performance in class as evidenced by their report card grades, performance on PSSA assessments, student performance and growth on local MAP assessments, PVAAS growth projections, and student work ethic. Additional assessment data may be considered should any be available regarding individual student performance.
Our Middle School program has four (4) distinct course levels within the program to meet individual student needs, provide academic interventions, and enrichment opportunities beyond grade level standards.
To inspire passion for lifelong learning one student at a time.

The New SEGautostand
The semi-automatic parking stand for the SEGWAY PT
The SEGautostand is a high-tech and automatically
folding parking stand for SEGWAY PT i2 and x2 models.
With your SEGautostand, broken parking stands and awkward start-ups will be a thing of the past! Operated from the
of the Segway PT, simply press down the lever on the rear of the SEGautostand until the parking leg is fully extended. When it is fully extended lean your Segway PT forward to allow the leg to make contact with the ground and support the Segway PT.
The SEGautostand automatically retracts simply by pulling the Segway PT's handlebars towards you. It then folds away safely by the time the green balance light appears. Not only does the SEGautostand automatically retract before you can glide away, its unique design guarantees that it cannot deploy while riding your Segway PT.
When riding your Segway PT, the SEGautostand remains folded between the fender and the battery cover with no protrusion to reduce your ground clearance. This also allows the Segway PT easy clearance when being walked over curbs and up or down stairs.
The SEGautostand is now available for purchase at $165.00 per unit* with free shipping within
the continental United States. To order by credit card, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com

Have you ever thought of changing the look of your home? Whether it is just on small-scale changes such as changing the color of the interior or the exterior or going all out such as adding an additional room or balcony, changes in your home is a must.
Homeowners assume that the reason why most individuals choose to have their houses undergo renovations is to improve the aesthetics. This is one of the reasons especially if you have plans of selling your property in the future. The only way it could be competitive is that if it is visually appealing. However, improving the look of your home is not the only reason, and we have included here other advantages of regularly updating the look of your home.
1. You keep in style
Homestyle, just like fashion, is very dynamic. If you are among those individuals who'd like to be in with the ever-changing fashion, you may want to extend this to your home. Who'd like to have a home that is outdated? Possibly, not you. As such, changing the look of your home every once in a while would keep give you the feeling that you are always in style. It doesn't need to be big changes, but just putting a new touch here and there or changing the color and theme of the home will give a different vibe.
2. It will give you a breath of fresh air
Over time, you'll get tired of looking at the same pink wall every time you park yourself on your couch after a long day. To not be fed up with the same old environment, you'll eventually be pushed to change it. Changes often give you the feeling of 'new-ness'. It keeps you from getting sick and tired of the old routine, and give the impression of living in a new environment – not to mention a breath of fresh air when you need it.
3. It will give the impression that your house is well cared for
Regular changes in the looks of your home give the impression that you give your property the love and care it deserves. Since changes require time, money, and effort, no one can doubt how invested you are in your property. If you do it right, then you can even upgrade the value of your home.
4. You could focus on the needed maintenance of your home
One thing that is often overlooked when it comes to the care of your home is the regular maintenance it needs. Most often than not, we only recognize this when they begin to collapse on us. When you start moving and changing things in your house, it is easy to see what needs fixing, and what needs replacement. As such, you'd be able to fix it before it can even cause problems or accidents in the future. What more is that you can save your house from early aging and protect it from dilapidation.
The common challenge faced by homeowners when changing their property is their inability to foresee the outcome – whether it would come out good or not. You do not need to worry about this because many stores already have simulators where you can see the after effects of changes you want to apply. More info about this?

The Autonomous Desk is a desk that can be used for either sitting or standing, and will even notify you if you've been sitting or standing for way too long.
The desk comes with a preset training plan that starts off by suggesting that users stand for 20-30 minutes at a time, before gradually increasing the suggested standing time each day. The desk can also learn users' sitting and standing habits and adjust suggestions accordingly.
Sitting for long periods of time while working has been all but proven to be really bad for you, but standing for too long isn't good for you either. The difficulty with typical standing desks is knowing when you've been standing for too long. That's one question mark that the Autonomous Desk gets rid of.

Special Agent Savvy Made this Queensborough Home a Done Deal
What a whirlwind this sale was! Our buyers ended up taking a look at this Queensborough Home on a local Facebook group this past Monday. The next day we were able to secure a showing on the Tuesday, submit an offer on the Wednesday, have that accepted on Thursday, and then removed subjects yesterday! It was an absolutely crazy jam packed deal, but we were happy to put the work in to land out buyers in their ideal neighbourhood. A modern single detached home that is less than 10 years old for a nice price. Big cheers all around! Click through the pictures of the home, and we'll fill you in with the details about the house and neighbourhood.
This beautiful Queensborough Home was built in 2010 in the "Red Boat at Port Royal" master built community. This is an area that built to revolutionize and urbanize New Westminster's little slice of Lulu Island. Our buyers are definitely going to enjoy the family oriented atmosphere in this neighbourhood as they take in the stunning views of the Fraser River. This home is two levels with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a covered garage. This spacious floorplan is spread out over 1,819 square feet. New stainless steel appliances are in the kitchen, and the wood theme is consistent throughout the entire home.
The art of the front porch has been lost in many modern designs, but this Queensborough Home has a 20'2×6'5 porch right outside the front door. This is the perfect spot to grab a seat and enjoy the quiet suburban ambiance around you. The backyard of the home includes the garage, accessed from a private back lane. There is plenty of grass to kick a soccer ball around, but also a stone patio for those warm summer nights. First growler from Steel & Oak is on us!
Around Queensborough
As mentioned, Queensborough is the end tip of Lulu Island that belongs to the City of New Westminster. Although crossing over the Queensborough Bridge spans an industrial area, the entire development on the island is very residential, with this Queensborough Home lies in the newest developments. Queen Elizabeth Elementary is located in the region, as well as a community recreation centre. The Starlight Casino as well as Match Eatery + Public House are the first turn off of the bridge, perfect for an adult night out. Also be sure to check out the Queensborough Landing Outlet and Shopping Centre if you're ever in the area.
A very cool feature of New Westminster that was tested as a pilot program this past summer is the Q to Q Ferry, taking passengers across the Fraser River from the New West Quay to Queensborough. It looks like it's going to be implemented as a permanent service so it's never been a better time to check out this little gem of New West. For more information on this sale please contact Jordan.

Following up on the recent announcement of Shaun Palmer returning to work with Intense Cycles as a team manager / coach, (which has certainly stirred up conversations in the mountain biking world). Intense have released an edit of Pamer putting their trail/enduro focused Tracer 275 through it's paces.
The exact nature of the role Palmer will play seems to be still a work in progress, but clearly he's regained his drive to be involved with top level mountain biking... could this be an opportunity to hook in other Intense riders, Chris Kovarik and Clare Butcher, who already run very highly thought of coaching and skills programs in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US?

Watch Out Now: Classic Makes a Comeback with Longiness
The Sixth in an Eleventh-part Series.
Whether you opt for an inexpensive everyday watch or a limited-edition collector's chronograph, the watch on your wrist plays a big part in defining your style. Undoubtedly, the best watch is going to be one that you wear, one that fits your budget and matches your lifestyle.
No matter what you're looking for, now is the time to get it. In the ports of call, take advantage of tax-free, duty-free prices and pick up a designer watch for hundreds—even thousands—of dollars less than what you'd pay back at home.
So even if you've never thought about buying a watch before—or if you've thought about it and didn't know where to start—rest assured it's not as…complicated as it looks. We asked Keith W. Strandberg, the international editor of the industry-standard Watch Journal, to put together an insider's guide to the world of fine timepieces.
And so, welcome to Watch Wednesday–it's watches 101 combined with a trend and news roundup.
Classic Makes A Comeback with Longiness
In today's digital age, people are growing nostalgic for tangible products with classic designs—all the better if made by a company with traditional values and an attention to detail. The trend toward the classics extends to the watchmaking industry. Many companies with long histories have refocused on their traditional models, often reintroducing modern takes on designs from their archives. A great concept since no one wants a watch style with a one-year shelf life.
There are a lot of Swiss watchmakers with significant heritage and a history of providing a wealth of great timepieces. Longines especially proves that classic certainly isn't synonymous with dull. To celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of filing the Conquest patent, Longines launched a line of commemorative Conquest Heritage 1954–2014 watches based directly on the first models, which most notably were used to calculate the speed record for crossing the Atlantic. The design is complete with the name in the original typeface inscribed on the dial and a case back decorated with a gold-and-enamel medallion, all fitted on a black alligator strap.

YOUR MISSION: Respond to that topic with an explanation (and a picture if possible!) that shows your Fitnatic behavior!
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU: Besides the glory of our Fitnatic fandom? We'll select one response for each topic. That person will receive a jar of Once Again Nut Butter AND a $25 gift card redeemable during Fitnatic Weekend (Nov. 28-30).
MAKE SURE: Tag the Fitnatics in your life, and use the hashtags #ILoveAFitnatic (if you're talking about someone in your life) or #ImAFitnatic (if you're talking about yourself).
EXAMPLE: If Tuesday's topis is "Pre-Race Ritual," a response might look like this: I have to lace and relace my shoes three times exactly before any race. #ImAFitnatic
If Friday's topic is "Most Committed Spectator," a response might look like this: I woke up at 3am to camp out at the finish line of the Chicago Marathon to see my girlfriend finish her first race #ILoveAFitnatic

Online Job Hunting Tips
A job! It makes everything else in your life work. Without income everything else goes to hell pretty damn quick! African-American's can attest to this more than any other Americans.
Unemployment in the black community is always, always, worse than other groups. According to the Washington Post black unemployment is sitting stubbornly at 11.4%, twice that of whites. This is a real travesty. My question is why?
According to Pew Research black unemployment has regularly been double that of other groups since 1954! In some areas of the country black unemployment has reached as much as four times that of whites.
I do not believe for a second this is all our fault. This country has a deep and persistent race problem. It is a proven fact that employers will shy away from hiring you if your name is too black.
A report from Think Progress reveals that Americans prefer doing business with whites. I'm not surprised.
But regardless of the way the game is played we have to get out there and fight for our share of the pie. Looking for work is a job in itself. You have to be prepared and aware of how to look, where to look, and how to present your skills and abilities.
In the age of the Internet more and more jobs are being offered and sought online. So basic computer and Internet skills are more important than ever. As I have just shown you, as an African-American, you need to get real good at presenting yourself to a potential employer. So how do we do this?
1) First of all create a website of your own as a step above a resume. You can do this in a single day using simple even free website hosting. You can post examples of your work and recruiters can read about your goals and obtain contact information.
2) Do a little research and get to know whats online about you. See what others and former employers know and say about you. This includes social media. Employers are big into looking into your Facebook and Twitter posts. Social media can help you or hurt you in your job search. And don't be surprised if your potential employer asks for your social media password. Is that legal? Maybe. Be aware of what images and comments are out there. Also be aware of anybody with the same or similar name as yours in case there is some confusion.
3) Focus on what you want. Online job boards offer job seekers various settings and filters to help you refine your search and improve the accuracy and speed of results. Narrow your job search by region, industry, years of experience, expected salary and sometimes by company name. And don't over sell yourself or under sell your skills. Know what you can do, can't do and willing to learn. It's ok to reach higher but not too high.
4) Focus! So rather than just applying for that sweet job you found online your best strategy may be to first figure out where you want to work. Who do you want to work for? Go after that company or industry. Many employer's career pages will allow the job seeker to fill out candidate profiles describing their background, job interests, salary requirements and other preferences. Keep in mind that many companies have a candidate pool that is refreshed at regular intervals. If you submitted a resume last year it may no longer be in their system. The job you are looking for may not be open right now but that does not mean you can't submit your resume. And re-submit or update it every six months or so. Many human resource managers will look at the most recent resumes first.
5) I did say focus right? Refine your search further by visiting your selected industry's national or regional websites. Examine professional associations and trade groups. You may find jobs in your field that don't appear on a national job board. Employers are increasingly advertising jobs on these sites to find a bigger pool of qualified applicants.
6) Seek out recruiters. These people are professional and may charge you but they can help match your skills with jobs. Check out searchfirm.com, or onlinerecruitersdirectory.com. These recruiters can also help you polish your resume, reveal skills you were unaware of and even discover new markets for your talents.
7) Consider a video resume. Video resumes are a new and innovative way to stand out and get noticed. This is intended only as a supplement to your standard resume and website. Consider using a video resume on your website. A good video resume permits you to exhibit your personality and interests that are difficult to highlight in a paper or electronic resume.
8) Do your homework. When you want to know something you Google it right? So Google the exact job you are searching for. You may find resources you were not aware of.
9) Stay alert. Many online job sites offer features that allow the job seeker to sign up to receive e-mail job alerts that match your search criteria. You can also use an RSS (Really Simple Syndication) using a site like Feedly.com.
10) Network, connect. Have you ever heard the cliche "It's not what you know, but who you know?" Because of social media and sites like LinkedIn.com job seekers have the ability to connect with people near and far. You can connect with people in your field to find new opportunities or expand your network for a career change. And the key word is network. Sites like LinkedIn are made up of millions of industry professionals allowing you to network with people you know and the people they know and so on and so on. But keep in mind that when you sign up for an online social networking site it is very public. Make use of any filters available. Once you put your information out there it can be difficult to take it back.
Looking for work is hard. Being black and on the job market is even tougher. You have to be prepared, persistent and alert to opportunities when they arise. We know it ain't gonna be easy and we know why. While you're out there you need to make sure your game is tight.
Now you know.

The existing TDWG recommendation that "5. All references to LSIDs within RDF documents should use the proxified form", basically states that LSID will never appear in any way other than bundled into an http URI - if we are also to publish data as RDF.My own view is that the RDF should always contain a canonical, un-proxied version of an identifier (whether LSID or DOI), because:
That sounds as if it means that those wanting to use LSID resolution will first have to extract the LSID part from the http URI which will now appear everywhere we would expect to find our unique identifier.
Donald [Hobern] has presented a strong case for unique identifiers conforming to the LSID specification but we have now an equally strong case that in its http form our identifier must behave as a dereferenceable URN per W3C linked data recommendations.
- having only the proxied version assumes that there is only one suitable proxy (there may be multiple ones)
- it assumes that the specified proxy will always exist (our track record in durable HTTP services is poor)
- assumes the specified proxy will always match conform to current standards
- it imposes an overhead on clients that want the canonical identifier (i.e., they have to strip away the proxy)
In order to play ball with Linked Data, there are several ways forward:
- always refer to LSIDs in their proxied form (see above for reasons why this might not be a good idea)
- ensure that at least one proxy exists which can resolve LSIDs in a linked data friendly way (see bioGUID as an example)
- use or develop linked data clients that understand LSIDs (e.g., http://linkeddata.uriburner.com/, see this view of urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:2C6BD020-B54A-4119-9693-3231C9FCEFA6)
For me this is one of the biggest hurdles facing using HTTP URIs as identifiers -- I have to choose one. As an analogy, I can identify a book using an ISBN (say, 0226644677). How do I represent this in RDF? Well, I could use an HTTP URI, say http://www.amazon.com/Tangled-Trees-Phylogeny-Cospeciation-Coevolution/dp/0226644677/ , or maybe http://www.worldcat.org/isbn/0226644677. There are many, many I could choose from. However, so long as I know that the ISBN is 0226644677, I'm free to use whatever URI best suits my needs. So, what I really want is the ISBN by itself.
Imagine, for example, a publisher such as PLoS or Magnolia Press (publisher of Zootaxa), both of which have recently published taxonomic papers containing LSIDs (e.g., doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0001787). They might want to display LSIDs linked to their own LSID resolver that embellishes the metadata with information they have (e.g., they might wish to highlight links to other content that they host). In a sense this is much the same idea as supported by OpenURL COinS, where OpenURL-format metadata is embedded in a HTML document and the user choose what resolver to use to resolve the links (including tools such as Zotero).
Having LSIDs prefixed with a HTTP proxy makes these task a little harder.

Bookings: no bookings allowed
Day: Saturday
Meal: dinner
Price: £ (no alcohol)
Rating: 7/10
Hoppers offers a slice of Sri Lanka dropped in the middle of Soho… for those prepared to brave the frighteningly long queue.
We went down on a Saturday, at 7pm, probably the worst conceivable time of the week. A glowingly friendly member of staff informed us that the wait would be "two hours, perhaps two and a half," before adding by way of consolation: "but you can go away and come back."
Two hours later, having sat in nearby La Bodega Negra eating a parched bowl of nachos and flavourless guacamole all whilst watching a small clan of homeless people quarrel with each other on the pavement, we made our way back to Hoppers, ready to be resentful.
Once inside however, our mood quickly melted. Bubbly staff were matched by upbeat music, old film posters decking the walls and the throb of lively conversation.
The menu comes equipped with a glossary (handy for those whose knowledge of South Asian cuisine doesn't extend much further than chicken tikka), but the staff seem to relish explaining the menu at any opportunity.
The fusion of spice and flavours can be tasted in every dish. The highlight was a lamb roti, a mixture of onions, roti bread, tender pieces of succulent lamb, and a tomato based curry, all blended in one bowl. The dish was well spiced, but have no fear, an ample supply of yoghurt is on standby for those with more delicate palates.
Another novelty is the restaurant's actual namesake, a hopper, which we had served with an egg. Made out of fermented rice and coconut, it takes the form of a thinly shaped bowl that you can tear pieces off for dipping purposes. Great for sharing.
A mild chicken curry (apparently spelt 'kari' in Sri Lanka) was a pleasant contrast to the heat of some 'Hot Buttered Devil Shrimps'. The entire experience was a riot of flavours, each dish its own unique blend, making every bite something of an adventure.
The restaurant has a casual feel and friendly vibe. Go down with your mates or have a casual date. All for a great price. But unless you turn up at a time nobody else actually eats, then prepare to queue!

The first floating mini- brewery will soon start functioning on Vltava. The opening of Lod Pivovar is expected at the end of October on a board of a modernized ship, moored by Štefánikův most. The multi-leveled ship will accommodate a mini-brewery, a restaurant to welcome up to 260 guests and an upper deck with barbecue and children's playground.
The brewery will be producing 7 sorts of beer, including the strongest Czech beer 'Titanic' with 34% of alcohol. The freshly manufactured beers will be only produced to be served on the board.
Lod Pivovar will offer a possibility to fish from the upper deck with a great view of the Prague Castle.
