NOORPUR THAL - Unscheduled loadshedding is getting prolonged with each passing day in Thal, In protest against power outages, the resident of Noorpur Thal and adjoining localities led by PTI Tehsil President Malik Shafqat Hussain Gujar blocked Kasmir Chowk for one hour and demanded the officials concerned to register their complaints against the unscheduled loadshedding. The residents staged a sit-in on the road and shouted slogans against the government for its failure. Talking to the media on the occasion, the protesters leaders said that routine life of people had badly been disturbed by prolonged power outages which caused water shortage in Thal in the face of increasing temperature.
VTI AWARDS CEREMONY: Vocational Training Institute Principal Malik Iltaf Hussain Rahdari has said that the government and the private sector is making a concerted effort to introduce professional education and skill development for youth to reduce unemployment as well as to make the youth capable enough to support themselves and their families.
He was addressing "the certification awards ceremony" at the institution. On the occasion, he lauded the best efforts of the teaching staff of the VTI.
APPEAL: Former Nazim Union Council Adhi Kot, Malik Ghulam Hasan Saleh has said that due to over flooded Chashma-Jhelum Link Canal, several hundred square kilometre desert area of Tehsil Noorpoor Thal has been inundated, creating severe life and property risk to thousands of inhabitants of the villages Chan, Ghunghan, Adhi Kot, Rahdari, Rangpur, Wahadhlanwala and nearby Chaks.
Talking to journalists, he said that CJ-link canal has already been waterlogged, for the last 26 years. This seepage has played havoc with the lives of the people of the Thal. Malik Ghulam Hasan said that the affected farmers demanded a special relief package from the government. He also emphasized on the Parliamentarians to play their role to solve the burning issue of the people of Thal.

In a past article I mentioned "How Jose Scottish Rite got here". Now I write "How California and the Whole Bay Area got here". My thanks go to that wonderful Geological Guidebook of the San Francisco Bay Counties, Bulletin 154, 1951, 400 pages It is a magnificent research document. It goes something like this—"In the beginning the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the waters, and so forth". That's it folks—there was only the surface water on top. Then slowly came the volcanic and earth building processes to be repeated over and over again,. With each successive geologic epoch new up-thrusting of mountains, hills, coastlines, plains, rivers and lakes would be created only to submerge and then be recreated differently as has happened in the past 2 billion years of the earth's 4 billion year history. The early part of the latest Pliocene epoch has been estimated as about 10 to 12 million years ago.
Recent events which are recorded here have occurred only within the last one-half of one percent of the earth's history and the development of the S. F. Bay Area itself may not have taken any more than the last one half of one-hundredth of that small fraction of time. During most of that that history there was no S.F. Bay Area.
Repeated events of temporary mountain building in the waters led to many geologic changes of plate tectonic movements, volcanos, earthquakes; and crustal compressions began to form both the great National Rocky Mountain range and our Sierra Mountain range. While this was all taking place our Coastal Mountain range and hills temporarily emerged from the ocean waters, then sank and reemerged in different locations, finally settling into what became our primary and secondary Cost Ranges. California's central part would become the great Sacramento and San Joaquin inland valley with its flood plains and rivers bordered by the high Sierra Mountain range to the east.
In this period the costal ocean level was about 300 feet lower than now and only made scattered inroads into the coast mountains, hills and valleys. The Great Central Valley was originally below sea level but was filled by yearly winter rains and snow runoff plus summer storms from the high Sierras. Over a period of time the Great Valley floor became slowly filled with alluvial sediment which kept the valley floor water level rising but only at about a constant six feet in depth due to evaporation. At one time there was a an outlet in the south to the ocean near the Paso Robles–San Luis Obispo area but it eventually became clogged due to ground uplifting in that area.
In the north, the costal mountains and valleys also faulted and then eroded as the level of the ocean waters and inland sea became higher. Small streams and rivers including the Yolo, Sacramento, American, and the San Joaquin among others began to force their way through to the Stockton, Modesto, Rio Vista, and Antioch Delta areas. Further river cuts through the rocks in the Martinez and Rodeo area left no remaining obstacle on the river's journey to the sea through the Sausalito, San Francisco and the Golden Gate areas.
During this period this new flowing river filled the Suisun Bay, the San Pablo Bay and the San Francisco Central Bay. It should be noted that the larger San Francisco southern bay was just a flat plain playing field. It would take more time for the waters to cover this area to its now average depth of six feet. then even more millennia to fill our bay and populate its shores with the native people, towns, cities, populations, industries, transportation, and the mode of civilization which we now enjoy. And His face shined upon the waters!
Dell Bleiler, Commander of Kadosh

Slept in a bit again, and then all of us (Raf, Charlotte, and their partners) drove to Damme. We met Denise's parents (with Denise, Frederik, and Marcela), talked a bit, and then went out for lunch. But not just any lunch - it was like 4 or 5 hours long. I WAS SO TIRED. I'm not used to that long of meals. I mean, it was delicious, but it was so long. Oh goodness.
After that, we walked around Damme a bit, went back to Denise's parents house, and then finally came home. Basically just went to bed right away, pretty tired.

From a 12 hour sleep? I needed some edible stuff to satisfy my hungry tummy. It's a rainy day in CEBU, so this totally means LAZY DAY for me.
McDonalds delivery — pancake and a cold vanilla coffee for breakfast while watching movies I've watched a million times. And for my robot love in Portland, he is watching a show while falling asleep in the couch. Time difference. It's getting late for him while I am just starting my day.
WE LOVE HANGOUTS and is always LAZY DAY FOR US every rest days from work. 😉 Time to relax from our busy schedule.
Enjoy your weekends guys, like we always do!!!

In 2014 enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) caused the largest outbreak in the United States since the discovery of the virus. Distinct from before, the 2014 infections were associated with more severe respiratory disease and occasional neurological complications. So far, there are no available vaccines or antivirals for the prophylaxis or treatment of EV-D68 infections. In order to evaluate the antiviral activity of potential inhibitors of EV-D68 replication, a cell-based cytopathic effect (CPE) reduction assay was developed (Sun et al., 2015).
Keywords: Enterovirus D68, Antiviral assay, CPE, MTS/PMS solution, Cell culture
As a re-emerging pathogen, antiviral compounds targeting EV-D68 were rarely reported before. It is urgently needed to establish and develop antiviral methods to combat the potential EV-D68 epidemic. Here, we report a detailed protocol which can be used to identify selective anti-EV-D68 compounds. To screen and identify potential antiviral compounds, the MTS-based CPE reduction assay is reproducible, easy-to-use and time-saving method which is widely used. This method relies on the ability of a compound to inhibit EV-D68-induced reduction of CPE. When a compound actively inhibits the replication of EV-D68, the virus-induced CPE will be reduced or absent. As a consequence, the metabolically active cells are able to convert a yellow tetrazolium salt substrate (MTS/PMS) to a brown-colored formazan product. When a compound does not have antiviral effects, the host cells die of virus-induced CPE, which will lack metabolic activity, and the yellow substrate remains un-metabolized. The colorimetric conversion is quantitative, as an EC50 can be calculated from the data generated by this assay.

Before upgrading your Toshiba laptop memory, you should know how much memory is supported by your laptop and the type of memory used.
Memory type
There are at least three types of memory used in modern laptop computers: DDR, DDR2, and DDR3 SDRAM. Most recent laptops support DDR3 memory type.
You can easily differentiate the type of memory used in your laptop by referring your system manual or read the label tag found on the existing memory chip. You can also find the data sheet for your laptop memory type, size and speed by entering memory tag number on search engines.
Memory size
Memory chips are available in several capacities: 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB are the most common memory chips available on the market.
Maximum memory supported and speed
Every laptop computer has maximum limitation of memory usage. If you install a memory chip greater than the system supports, your laptop either won't recognize it or unable to load Windows properly. Speed of memory is the other factor you should understand.
Regarding the speed of memory, you must install a memory with the same speed of the existing memory or higher. You may consult your system manual for additional information.
Total Memory slots
The memory slots refer the number of slots available on the motherboard. Some laptops have only one slot and most laptop models have two slots.
As an example, here I have listed memory information for some of the models of Toshiba laptops. Your laptop model might not be listed here, but, it would help you to figure out yours as well.
The list mentions:-
The type of Toshiba laptop memory used,
Number of available memory slots and
Maximum memory supported by the specific laptop model
Here are some of Toshiba laptops and memory specifications:-

The Republic of Palau is an island country located in the North Pacific Ocean. Palau is made up of more than 200 islands surrounded by a barrier reef and is home to approximately 21,000 people. The most populous state in Palau is Koror, which, with about 14,000 people, accounts for over half of Palau's population.
Palau is renowned for its variegated wildlife and for its commitment to protecting local ecosystems. In 1989, Palau was named one of the Seven Wonders of the Underwater World for its expansive coral reefs and its diverse marine life. One of Palau's most notable features are the rock islands, which are small, uninhabited islands formed from coral or limestone. These islands are uninhabited and are officially part of Koror.
For more information, the Palau Visitors Authority has provided an excellent website that will give more detailed information regarding the people and the culture. Included below is a slideshow featuring pictures of Palau.

Don Kabler 1932-2013
My sweet, kind, loving, vintage friend passed away on Monday. Don turned 81 in February. We've been fantastic friends for 20 plus years and I cherish every moment spent with him. He taught me so many things over the years and gave me so much joy. He died of a heart attack. He had a quadruple bypass 24 years ago and was told a few years ago he needed another one, but opted not to. He lived fully right up until the end. I love him dearly and will miss him desperately.
Tell the people you love everyday that you love them!

1938, Nazi Germany, and Hanukkah serve as a tension-filled start to the text. His parents put him on a giant ship to travel to America to live with Aunt Esther, and he knows he must arrive in time to light the menorah with her. It will be a long walk once he arrives in NewYork City, but he begins his walk. Indeed eight blessings gift him with the will and inner strength to find his way, and good people aid him in surprising ways.
Find this book. Similar in some ways as Kate DiCamillo's Great Joy, Oskar and the Eight Blessings took my breath away. The book starts before the title page, a tactic I love, and the storyline simply captured me. A beautiful book without question.

One of the biggest advantages of writing a novel versus writing a movie or TV show script is that authors can use internal dialogue as a tool to tell the story.
Internal dialogue is what your character is thinking. It is not the same thing as narration, which is when the person telling the story (the narrator) talks directly to the reader.
Now there are a few rules about using internal dialogue.
- Only use internal dialogue for the point-of-view (POV) character.
If you show the thoughts of non-POV characters, it is called head-hopping, and it is a big no-no in writing (though I do see many romance authors committing this writing sin.)
- Only share thoughts that advance the story.
We don't need to hear every thought in your character's head. We just need to hear the important ones that are relevant to the plot.
Including internal dialogue is a good way to replicate real life. In our own lives, we are always thinking to ourselves – noticing things, trying to solve problems, giving ourselves pep talks or berating ourselves.
There are two ways you can include internal dialogue – indirectly or directly.
Indirect Internal Dialogue gives the reader an idea of the character's thoughts without the exact words they are thinking. You do not need to include the tags "wondered" or "thought."
Here is an example taken from Internal Dialogue by Marcy Kennedy:
The suffocating stench of lilies clung to his clothes. She slowly pulled away from his hug. Shivers traced over her arms. She knew that smell. Not perfume. It was too natural for that, but it also wasn't an everyday odor. She wouldn't expect to run into it at the grocery store. Or the bank, either. It was rare. Heavy, warm, and sad.
Her breath tripped in her throat, and she stepped back. He smelled like death, like a corpse smothered in flower arrangements at a funeral parlor. The last time she'd smelled it was standing next to her mother's coffin, saying good-bye.
Direct Internal Dialogue gives the reader the exact words the character is thinking. It is written in first person and present tense, regardless of the person and tense of the rest of the story.
Here is above example written as direct internal dialogue (also from Marcy Kennedy's book):
The suffocating stench of lilies clung to his clothes and hair. She slowly pulled away from his hug. Shivers traced over her arms. I know that smell. I should know that smell.
Not perfume. It was too natural for that, but it also wasn't an everyday odor. She wouldn't expect to run into it at the grocery store. Or the bank, either. It was rare. Heavy, warm, and sad.
Her breath tripped in her throat, and she stepped back. He smells like death, like a corpse smothered in flowers at a funeral parlor. The last time she'd smelled that scent was standing next to her mother's coffin, saying good-bye.
Formatting your internal dialogue
There are many ways to include internal dialogue in your novel. There are two rules you need to follow.
1.) Never use quotation marks for internal dialogue.
2.) Be consistent with whatever format you choose.
For indirect internal dialogue, you are not using speech tags (he thought) or setting off the words in italics since you are not giving the exact words.
For direct internal dialogue, you can use both a speech tag or put the information in italics. (Liar, she thought.) Or you could just decide to use italics. (Where's the money you owe me?)
Now if you write fantasy, paranormal or have people who can talk telepathically, then formatting your internal dialogue can be even trickier. Now you have people who externally speak dialogue, internal character speaking to themselves as well as two characters speaking privately in their minds.
Here is what I have done in my novels: I use quotation marks around spoken dialogue. I use italics for dialogue spoken telepathically. And I typically don't use the direct internal dialogue and just stick with indirect.
Again, if you are consistent, your readers will easily understand what is happening.
Once you have mastered using internal dialogue, you can use it to help your readers connect with your characters. It will help the characters feel more real and most importantly the internal dialogue can advance your story.

It's Friday! Did you have an awesome week? I hope you did! Me, on the other hand….not a bad week, but definitely not awesome. My back was acting up throughout the whole thing, so I was pretty limited on what I could physically. Are you tired of my back acting up all the time, because I really am! Otherwise, not a bad week! I got a decent amount done while still allowing myself some "me" time like I talked about in Wednesday's post. It was hard to pace myself, but so great to take some time away from working. But this post is one of my favorite fun ones to work on, because I get to share all the links I love from the week! Plus it gives me an excuse to spend time reading various blogs!
Steve's Famous Maryland Crab Soup from Monica's Table
12 Kid-Friendly Energy Ball Recipes Made Without Protein Powder from The Lean Green Bean
One Pan Honey Mustard Balsamic Chicken and Broccolini from Slender Kitchen
Mozzarella Chicken Pasta with Sun Dried Tomatoes from The Recipe Critic

Fitness and Wellness
Eat and Get Fit from Moms Can be Fit – Too many times I see people talking about eating for fitness in restrictive ways…you know what I'm talking about, it's the "baked chicken and steamed veggies for lunch and/or dinner every day" crowd. Now, there is nothing wrong with those. I love baked chicken and steamed veggies. But every day? Tiff talks about her normal daily eating habits and some options and it is refreshing to see someone so fit talking about real food!
Restoring Mind and Body: Natures Profound Power from Run to the Finish – This makes me want to visit Colorado so much! These parks look amazing and like so much fun. I love when you can combine gorgeous outdoor scenery with fitness and spending time together.
My Relationship with Fitness from Cupcakes and Cashmere – As most of you know, I struggle with my fitness routine. Some from injury, some from just having difficulty settling into a routine I enjoy. I really like getting a look into others struggles too, especially since it can feel sometimes that everyone has their act together and it's just me. So I really appreciate how much she puts herself out there in this post!
Home and Decor
Injecting Colour Into Your Kitchen in 3 Easy Ways from Suburban Mum – I love the idea of small steps! While I'm a big fan of color (sometimes a little too much) it can be hard to get the right balance.
Guest Room Gallery Wall from The DIY Playbook – Oh how I love a good gallery wall. And this one is gorgeous!
Jewelry Organization from A Thoughtful Place – This is such a cute way to organize your jewelry! While I have way too many pieces to do just this, I might incorporate some more visually-pleasing displays when we finish the walk-in closet 🙂
Life and Family
Things That Make You Feel Like an Adult from DizzyBrunette3 – This list is great! And made me laugh. Sometimes it really does hit home when you are doing more "adult" things like making appointments, cleaning your home, and buying furniture!
Tulip Fields + Embracing Spontaneity from Open Spaces – I love the idea of a spontaneous trip exploring the tulip fields. And as this is only a couple hours away from me, totally possible! Great post and gorgeous pictures 🙂
Why It's Okay to Be Basic from DizzyBrunette3 – I'm gonna start off with the fact that I have hated that term from the first time I heard it…and I absolutely love this post. We really need to stop shaming people for the things they like, whether that is Starbucks, yoga, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer (ok, I love all three of these, and that last one is my own addition to things she mentions) Just let people do what they enjoy, no shame involved. And she makes this point much better than I am, so head over there to read it!
Art and DIY
Everyone's Painting Their Own Abstract Art, And You Should Too from Apartment Therapy – Ok, this one is not from this week, so I'm breaking my rules here. But I love this post! It has so many great ideas for some DIY art!
Industrial Display Shelves from Pretty Handy Girl – I LOVE these! They are so cute, while still having a bit of a masculine feel. Plus great build plans!
Easy DIY Pallet Clipboard Frame from Old House to New Home – Such a cute and simple idea! Perfect for loose art or pictures! 🙂
The Magic of Getting Started from Art Blog for Creative Living – I love this! I have a hard time getting going in my studio sometimes and it really is true…sometimes you just have to start
Blogging and Business
One Day I Will Find You – A Letter to My Dream Job from Vanilla Crunnch – I love how Lara talks about the feelings surrounding her dream job instead of the exact thing she wants to do. How it's about the community, interactions and results. Great read!
The Key to Fooling Everyone Into Thinking You're a Natural at Public Speaking from The Middle Finger Project – Fantastically written and has some great tips! I have a hard time at public speaking, even in small group conversations, and this is something I have been having to do more of lately. I will definitely be giving the advice in this post some thought!
5 Mistakes I've Made With Blog Photos from A Girl, Obsessed – While I still have SO MUCH to learn about photography, I do think my photos have gotten better over the last year. I love getting the chance to look back at another blogger's progress, especially since the photos she creates are so gorgeous!
How Weekend Fun Can Help Grow Your Social Media from Venus Trapped in Mars – I love this post! Social media is a bit of a struggle for me sometimes, especially when it comes to growth. I love getting great photos out of fun outings…I just need to be a little more deliberate about it!
Time Management 101 from Simply Organized – While I think this article was written geared towards moms, I think this is really applicable to all bloggers and business types, whether they are moms or not! Great post and great reminder to own your time!
That's it for this week! I hope you enjoy this round up of the links I love and found some interesting posts! Did I miss your favorite from the week, or maybe you posted something you want me to check out? I would love to hear about them, so please leave a link in the comments below!
Have a fabulous weekend!

Noah And The Whale, Lana Del Rey and Elbow were amongst the acts to play on the opening day of the Isle Of Wight Festival yesterday (June 22).
The festival site had been thrown into chaos following heavy rain and severe flooding earlier in the week (June 21), but Noah And The Whale charmed a large Main Stage crowd with a bright, positive set with the band's Urby Whale defying the mud in a white suit. Frontman Charlie Fink celebrated the turn in the festival's weather fortune by dedicating 'Blue Skies' to "this incredible thing above us, it looks amazing", and a closing trio of 'Tonight's The Kind Of Night', '5 Years Time' and 'LIFEGOESON' left spirits well and truly lifted.
Next up on the main stage, meanwhile, was Example. After opening with 'Stay Awake' and 'See The Sea', he worked the crowd up, asking "Where's the fucking lunatics at?". "What rain, what mud, what traffic?" he demanded mid-set. "If you're here to see another band and not me that's fair enough, let's all try and enjoy ourselves." Circle pits formed in the crowd on Example's request during 'Playing In The Shadows' and he seemed pleased with the results, beaming "How fun is this?" during a euphoric 'Watch The Sun Come Up'.
Lana Del Rey also appeared confident during her Big Top set, with her voice in good form. Opening with 'Blue Jeans' she looked comfortable and in control of the stage despite a packed-tight tent, while 'Born To Die', 'Summertime Sadness' and 'Without You' also made an appearance. During 'Video Games' Del Rey gave the crowd a wide smile after the "and baby, now you do" line before ending on an impressive vocal flourish. "Fuck yes, that was so good," she enthused, before closing her set with 'National Anthem'.
Elbow, who were the penultimate act on the Main Stage before headliners Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers, put on an emotive show, with frontman Guy Garvey telling the crowd: "The light's beginning to fade, the sun is going down – a whole world of magic and mysticism is opening up for you lot." The Mancunian band's set incorporated tracks including 'The Loneliness Of A Tower Crane Driver', 'Lippy Kids', 'Grounds For Divorce', Leaders Of The Free World', 'Open Arms' and a final impassioned verson of 'One Day Like This'.
"I know I talk too much," Garvey told the crowd, "but you can't let them mess with festivals, because it's the one weekend that everyone has to restore their faith in humanity."
The festival continues today with performances from Pearl Jam, Biffy Clyro and Magnetic Man. You can watch NME's video guide to the seven must-see bands at Isle Of Wight festival by scrolling down to the bottom of the page and clicking.

Chuang Hsiao-Li
1 Administration of Lactobacillus plantarum PS128 Improves Animal Behavior and Monoamine Neurotransmission in Germ-Free Mice
Authors: Liu Wei-Hsien, Chuang Hsiao-Li, Huang Yen-Te, Wu Chien-Chen, Chou Geng-Ting, Tsai Ying-Chieh
Abstract:Intestinal microflora play an important role in communication along the gut-brain axis. Probiotics, defined as live bacteria or bacterial products, confer a significant health benefit to the host. Here we administered Lactobacillus plantarum PS128 (PS128) to the germ-free (GF) mouse to investigate the impact of the gut-brain axis on emotional behavior. Administration of live PS128 significantly increased the total distance traveled in the open field test; it decreased the time spent in the closed arm and increased the time spent and total entries into the open arm in the elevated plus maze. In contrast, heat-killed PS128 caused no significant changes in the GF mice. Treatment with live PS128 significantly increased levels of both serotonin and dopamine in the striatum, but not in the prefrontal cortex or hippocampus. However, live PS128 did not alter pro- or anti-inflammatory cytokine production by mitogen-stimulated splenocytes. The above data indicate that the normalization of emotional behavior correlated with monoamine neurotransmission, but not with immune activity. Our findings suggest that daily intake of the probiotic PS128 could ameliorate neuropsychiatric disorders such as anxiety and excessive psychological stress.

More than 100 developers got together during a hackathon last week in Melbourne to tackle some of the biggest infrastructure-related problems such as traffic congestion, safety issues and pollution.
InfraHack, which took place 28-29th August, was run by NICTA and looked at how technology and apps could help make Melbourne a smart city when it comes to its use of infrastructure.
Here are some of Techworld Australia's top picks from the event.
There's no shortcut if most drivers on the road are using the same route and creating bumper-to-bumper traffic. So what if the long way around might end up saving you time?
Lida Rashidi, Sarah Erfani (PhD students from the University of Melbourne's Department of Computing and Information Systems), Mahsa Baktashmotlagh (PhD graduate from the University of Queensland) and Michael Coburn (freelance research and business development) built a 'road load balancing' tool to predict congestion on any road in the city. The tool readjusts traffic lights in real time so that people are not left stuck in traffic for long periods of time.
The team used a combination of 'deep learning' (fast machine learning), predictive modelling and a graph-theoretic approach, integrating data from vehicle counters and traffic light detectors to optimise the traffic and spread the vehicles more evenly across the roads so that people get to their destination faster. Datasets from VicRoads and TomTom were used.
The team won first prize - two tickets to Silicon Valley and one month to further develop their idea at Melbourne startup hub, York Butter Factory. The team will also get assistance from Code for Australia to further develop the proof of concept.
Hospitality is the main activity that occurs inside Melbourne's CBD, meaning more traffic added to the city's roads as vehicles deliver produce and goods to restaurants, bars, shops and hotels. More than 3,800 delivery vehicles drive in and out of Melbourne's CBD every day, with last mile freight costing the city $3 billion a year.
Daniel Jitnah, Aditya Dhar, Ali Alen, Tan Yu An and Michelle Bourke developed a 'loading zone finder' that alerts drivers to available loading zone bays as they approach the area of their destination. The finder also indicates when a bay is most likely to be available so they can better plan ahead.
The team used routing algorithms, PHP and Javascript to develop the tool. Data from parking events from bays with sensors and Here.com API were also used.
The team won second prize – one month to further develop their idea at York Butter Factory, one year of free events at StartupGrind and tickets to Pause Festival.
Tram Jam
Injuries from Melbourne's trams – one of the largest tram networks in the world – is a big problem for the city. Transport Safety Victoria reported 30 serious injuries including three deaths in 2013, doubling the amount in 2012.
John Lyons created an app to warn pedestrians and motorists when a tram is approaching them. The app alerts users by flashing a warning signal on their phone screen, as well as makes noise.
Lyons also created a heat map of tram accidents in the city, which displays their level of severity to help people be more aware of dangerous stops. When users create a journey, it warns them when they are approaching a dangerous stop.
Crash Statistics from data.vic.gov.au were used, along with Public Transport Victoria API and Bluedot SDK. The mobile app was created with Xcode in Objective-C, with the backend web service in PHP and MySQL.
Anyone who has driven in a city would know how much of a struggle it can be to find parking. To help ease the pain, developers Guan Gui, Zeyu Ye, Herve, Balendran, Chris, Arun created an app that recommends drivers the best car park spot based on their current location and time.
It also automatically sets a timer – based on how long a driver can park for in a certain location – when the user walks out of his/her car park lot to remind him/her when their parking time runs out.
Using geofencing, users can make automatic payments for parking as they enter a parking zone. The app can also help users find their way back to their car.
"We envisioned that by using our app, people could park their cars as easily as just pushing one button 'find parking'. Our SeePark app will then query the server side for best car park lot candidate providing the user's current time and location. We have a smart algorithm running on our server side to predict the availability of every car park lot in CBD using a fusion of Parking Sensor Data and user's mobile sensor data," Gui told Techworld Australia.
"The more people using our app, the more accurate our predictions will be. Because we make use of user's mobile phone sensors as well, we can predict those car park lots that do not have park sensors installed, too. Potentially, this can improve Vic gov's parking sensor data, too."
The team used parking sensor data from data.melbourne.vic.gov.au to develop the app. Objective-C, Bluedot SDK was used to implement the iOS interface, with MongoDB and Scala used to store and analyse the dataset.
Petrol Watch
Finding cheap petrol is not always cheap when you're driving around comparing prices. Developer Hans Ha built an app that crowdsources fuel data to help motorist find the cheapest price more easily.
It pulls together real time price details on all of Melbourne's petrol service stations. Drivers enter a price range and the type of petrol they need, and it displays the closest price options.
Once the user has swiped through to find the best option, they just swipe the other way to get the location of the petrol station.
Ha had to use data from fuelwatch.wa.gov.au, but the app can be applied in Melbourne. Open source JavaScript library leafletjs.com was also used to develop the app.

|Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Geng Shuang's Remarks on Shipwreck in Sabah, Malaysia
Q: A boat carrying 28 Chinese tourists was reported missing on the night of January 28 on its way to Pulau Mengalum, Sabah, Malaysia. Can you update us on the search and rescue operation? What efforts have been made by the Chinese side?
A: On the night of January 28, a catamaran with 28 Chinese tourists and 3 local crew members on board sank en route for Pulau Mengalum, Sabah, Malaysia. As instructed by President Xi Jinping and at the request of Premier Li Keqiang, the Chinese Foreign Ministry asked the Chinese Embassy in Malaysia and Consulate-General in Kota Kinabalu to activate emergency response mechanisms. The Chinese Ambassador to Malaysia lodged representations with the Malaysian side, requiring them to spare no effort in searching. The Consulate-General in Kota Kinabalu has sent officials to Malaysia's search and rescue center to coordinate with them. Up till now, 20 Chinese tourists have been rescued and 3 bodies recovered while five others are still missing. The Consulate-General has sent the survivors to the local hospital for treatment. We deeply mourn for the victims and express condolences to the bereaved families.
The Chinese side hopes that the Malaysian side will continue with the search and rescue work in all their strength, inform the Chinese side with the developments in a timely fashion, treat and make appropriate arrangements for the survivors, preserve the bodies of the victims, properly deal with the follow-up matters, and carry out unbiased and impartial investigation into the shipwreck in a bid to find out the cause of the incident.

Never settle for the best
"Focus on the user and all else will follow," and "democracy on the Web works" are two of the basic tenets in Google's philosophy. So rather than designing a social network, and then adding some useful content (think Facebook or MySpace), Google is approaching networking from the other side. Start with great content, and then make it simple to add some social flavor.
Friend Connect (FC) is a very simple, very focused service. It gives site owners an easy way to handle user management and sign-ins, helps us invite more users, and provides a few tools for sharing content, running online discussions, and so on. It's all very basic stuff these days. The OpenSocial community is expected to expand on the launch capabilities with a steady stream of new applications.
It's best to do one thing really, really well
The genius of this service lies in its simplicity. Friend Connect takes the programming out of social networking, so anyone who owns a website or a blog can make it an interactive, collaborative experience. Choose a few options, point and click a bit, and copy the resulting code into your page -- and you have a sign-in system. That's about as hard as it gets.
It's easy for users, too: they can sign in with an account from Google, AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo!
Fast is better than slow
Once they've logged in, users can interact with the applications installed on your site. Just as anyone can sign up for a Google AdWords/AdSense account and get started in the advertising world, anyone could get a foot in the social networking door with Friend Connect. This undermines established networks like MySpace and orkut, turning them into mere address books for this new kid on the block.
There's always more information out there
By launching Friend Connect, Google is uncovering a potential new revenue stream. If it gains traction with smaller sites, I'd imagine that they would use Friend Connect as a tool to drive more traffic to their content, complemented by Google ads and the odd YouTube video.
If Google's successful monetization of the paid search-market is any indication, creating a sticky application like Friend Connect will prove to be an equally smart move.
Connect with further Foolishness:

Happy Birthday To My Amazing Mama!
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday,
dear mom,
Happy Birthday to youuuuuu!
Dear Mom,
Happy Birthday to my best friend! In nearly 25 years, I haven't quite figured out how to explain what you mean to me. You are everything...the one that's been there through thick and thin... the person who always understands. Where would I be without your strength and love (especially after this past year)? No matter how scary things may get, I know you're right there behind me and it's means the world.
I also hope you know how proud you make me. The people and animals you care for are all better for knowing you. You're so talented and yet so humble. I deeply admire how hard you work every day and the success of Someday Designs. Quite simply, I'm proud of everything you are and so lucky to call you my mom.
Let's celebrate today!
Love always,

If you have type 2 diabetes and the idea of overhauling your diet is a bit daunting, you might want to start with just a few key grocery items. These foods are high in fiber, offer lots of vitamins and nutrients, and are low in fat and cholesterol. Nutritionist Sharon Richter, RD, calls these "diabetic superfoods."
To be clear, these diabetic superfoods will not automatically cure any conditions on their own. However, regularly making healthy food choices and staying physically active will improve your health over time and may make it easier to manage diabetes symptoms.
Consider adding the following diabetic superfoods to your grocery list:
Beans are high in fiber, magnesium, and potassium. They are a plant-based protein, which means they have no saturated fat or cholesterol. They are incredibly versatile and can replace meat in a variety of dishes. For example, you can make chickpea "crab cakes" or black bean tacos.
Fat-free milk and yogurt have calcium and vitamin D. When picking yogurt, skip the sweetened, flavored stuff. Ideally, yogurt should have two ingredients on the label: milk and "live active yogurt cultures." (The latter is what gives yogurt its gut-healthy probiotics.) Sweeteners, corn starch, gelatin, natural flavors, and pectin are signs of a more processed yogurt. You can always sweeten the yogurt yourself by stirring in fruit. (Try pureeing strawberries to flavor the yogurt evenly!)
Berries offer vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber—plus some natural sweetness. Add them to yogurt, oatmeal, or even salad, like in this chef-approved kale salad. Adding a touch of sweetness can make eating those greens a lot more enjoyable!
Spinach is a good source of potassium, vitamin C, and antioxidants. It's also the most neutral-flavored leafy green, so if bitter greens aren't your thing, try spinach. Try a spinach salad with crispy, roasted mushrooms, or blend it into your small smoothie with yogurt and berries for a sneaky dose of greens. (Honestly, you won't taste it!)
Sweet potatoes can be your go-to potato. Compared with white potatoes, sweet potatoes are loaded with fiber and vitamins A, C, and B6. There are a number of ways to eat them besides with marshmallows at Thanksgiving. For starters, try these homemade sweet potato fries!
For more grocery tips, here's a breakdown of what a healthy diabetic diet looks like.

The witching hour has arrived.
You have decided to set forth on that long-awaited job search, or you have been unhappy in your current job and it is time for a change in venue.
If you want to attend that Halloween party you got invited to, a creative eye-opening costume is a necessity. Likewise, in the world of job hunting, a customized, skillfully-worded résumé is essential.
Most of us have experienced the "treats" of a new job offer and how great it can make you feel, but we all – job seekers and employers alike — want to avoid the "tricks" of a poisoned résumé.
It might help if we review some of the ghostly tricks that haunt many job seekers:
- A typographical error is rotten;
- A grammatical error is worse;
- A misspelled proper name is instant dismissal from bobbing for apples;
- Listing an inappropriate, non-professional email point of contact is a black cat in a dark alley;
- Factual errors of GPA, educational institutions, awards or previous jobs can start the engraving of your tombstone;
- A phone number or email link that does not work is a witch's spell gone wrong;
- Listing high school information shows you still need an parental escort after dark;
- Not customizing résumés for an industry-specific employment opportunity can lead to your house or car being egged;
- Failing to use key words from the job description and to show off your skills are akin to a witch without her broom;
- Offering too much information on past internships or jobs may result in howling by the reader;
- Typefaces that are hard to read, fancy borders or designer paper make the reader question your judgment as well as your choice of costume;
- Gaps in information or timelines can result in the loss of your best candy; and
- Either too long or too short a résumé can cause a nasty fall while running through a neighbor's yard.
Please give adequate time in preparation of your all-important résumé and have trusted friends and family read it over and over for accuracy, descriptive wording, compelling organization and clarity. Human resource and hiring managers will hail your good work with Halloween candy corn, and perhaps a "treat" of an interview and/or job offer will await you!

Post filePreston at Main, looking northeast, mid-1950s.
Here are some photos I came across that show Main Street in the mid-1950s. Looking at pictures like these makes me realize that we can probably map most of downtown during this time.

For those who didn't see it on my Twitter feed, Houston Community College has torn down the Windward Court Apartments at 901 Rosalie. Some of you may remember the building as the Fear Factory in recent years.
The building, designed by noted architect William Ward Watkin, dates back to the early 1920s. Watkin was responsible for designing the original MFAH building, the Julia Ideson Building and other buildings around Rice University, to name a few. In fact, he was head of the university's architectural department until his death in 1952.
In recent months, preservationists had sought to save it, but in the end it didn't work out.
Moving on, there are a few history-related events going on these next few days. Here's a rundown:
The 19th Annual Houston Airline Collectibles Show and Sale is going on Saturday at the 1940 Air Terminal from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is $5.
If you're a fan of aviation memorabilia, you should check it out. More information can be found here.
The 1940 Air Terminal is at 8325 Travelair St., just west of Hobby Airport.
The caretakers at Olivewood Cemetery, the oldest black cemetery in Houston, are hosting a fall festival on Saturday from 2 to 5 p.m. Games for children, a costume contest and tours of the cemetery are some of the activities planned.
The event also serves as a fundraiser for the Descendants of Olivewood's ongoing efforts to reclaim the cemetery from erosion. The group wants to disinter remains now in danger of being washed away and rebury them elsewhere in the cemetery. Another goal is to keep the erosion from getting worse.
In May, I wrote about some of the problems facing the cemetery and its erosion issues. Anyone wanting to see it firsthand should go out there Saturday afternoon and check it out for themselves.
Olivewood Cemetery is at 1300 Court, where it dead-ends south of White Oak Bayou behind Grocers Supply.
Finally, the University of Houston Department of History will host a symposium featuring a new book by UH professor Monica Perales, Smeltertown: Making and Remembering a Southwest Border Community, on Thursday at 4 p.m. in the Honors College Commons at the campus's M.D. Anderson Library.
Here's how the organizers describe the symposium:
Nestled on the banks of the Rio Grande in El Paso, Texas, at the heart of a railroad, mining and smelting empire, Smeltertown was home to generations of ethnic Mexicans who labored at the American Smelting and Refining Company (ASARCO).
Using newspapers, personal archives, photographs, employee records, parish newsletters and interviews with former residents, including her own relatives, Perales unearths the history of this forgotten community. Spanning almost a century, "Smeltertown" traces the birth, growth and ultimate demise of a working class community in the largest U.S. city on the Mexican border with ethnic Mexicans represented for the first time in this area at the center of transnational capitalism and the making of the urban West.
Two eminent scholars on Mexican-American history, Vicki Ruiz, dean of humanities and professor of history at the University of California, Irvine, and Ernesto Chavez, associate professor of history at the University of Texas, El Paso, will discuss the significance of Perales' book.
The event is free.

The Big Eat
September 29, 2011
I've somehow seemed to miss out on the early publicity for this, but Leicester's Big Eat looks like a worthwhile intiative. On 6 October 40-odd restaurants, cafe and bars in the city centre will be doing two-for-ones or other special offers and events. This includes venues such as Chutney Ivy (which will have Indian and English singers in for the night) Kayal, The Case, The Boot Room, Rutland and Derby and Cedars Lebenese which be hosting belly dancing. The precise offer varies so make sure you have a browse of the offical information (Click here).
Given the depressing news this week about the failure to thrive of Market Corner, it would be good to have the city heaving with people enjoying their food.
Paddy's Marten Dhaba
September 27, 2011
A few months back I wrote an enthusiastic review of Paddy's for Great Food magazine, but somehow I don't seem to have written the place up here. After another first rate meal there this weekend I better put that right.
You'd be unlikely to ever just come across Paddy's, it being located up a fairly lonely sidestreet off Catherine Street. So it's a good mile out of the city centre in what is, with due respect to locals, not exactly a fashionable part of town. Out of the way maybe, but it is massively popular. I was first shown there by an Asian friend who wanted to show me an alternative to what he saw as the over-priced, westernised tandoori places that tend to predominate even in a city such as Leicester. "You'll see all these smart cars lined up outside," he said. "Successful Asian businesspeople like to come here for good value home-style food".
It's not a flash place, but a perfectly serviceable old pub that now buzzes with happy people. It has a truly diverse clientele – couples, family groups, groups of young people, old people of every stripe. On most nights it's busy, on a Friday it does an extraordinary trade but seems to run with clockwork efficiency, friendly management setting the tone for well-trained staff. There's a very wide menu, lots of vegetarian options in a home cooked style (gunga peas with fenugreek leave, butter bean curry, rajastani paneer) and dishes can be served mild, medium or hot. There's no false emphasis on authenticity, just a recognition that people like traditional food and in their own way.
And it is great food. I started with kathiawadi masala fish – and it was probably the best dish I've had anywhere this year. Fillets of excellent white fish (tilapia I think) covered in a wondeful, vibrant green masala paste – for the first time I genuinely understood why the term masala gets used figurativly to mean a lively, exciting mixture. My main course was chicken machoosi – on-the-bone meat cooked in a style which, it is promised, will take you back to East Africa. Can't comment on that really but it was extremely tasty. Friends had variations of "sizzling combos" – mountains of highly-flavoured minced lamb kebabs and a variety of chicken pieces with highly addictive caramelised onions. A fish and prawn mixed curry impressed too. A warning though – the portions are generous and mains are served with rice and naan so, while they'll pack up leftovers for you, best to order conservatively.
Paddy's is the kind of place that makes Leicester great. Next month it will feature in an episode of a new Channel 4 series Jamie's Great Britain, so the rest of the nation may to get to know of it too. There's no website, but if you want to visit it's at 98 Martin St, Leicester LE4 6EU. Booking advised on 0116 266 5123.
[Edit 4/11/11 – Paddy's now does have a website – visit www.paddysmarteninn.co.uk]
Sven at The Star
September 23, 2011
Earlier this year I asked readers to keep their eyes open and file reports of spottings of Sven around the restaurants of Leicestrshire. You all let me down badly on that one but we'll let that pass. I found myself tonight out at the newly-refurbished Star Inn at Thrussington (about 7 miles up the A46 from Leicester). Pictured below with his wingman Alan Birchenall, Svennis was doing an admirable job for the opening party which doubled as a fundraiser for LCFC's chosen charity.
He was endlessly charming and helpful amid the crush of people wanting their photo taken and neatly sidestepped mischeivous questions about who he wanted to win Strictly – I hope they made piles of cash.
The pub looks very nice – done out in a stylishly understated way by the owner Nigel Richardson who recently did the fit out of Jason Atherton's Mayfair venue the Pollen Street Social (Atherton was due to attend until a last minute chef crisis intervened). The food looks worth a try too – upmarket pub stuff such as steaks, rump of lamb, and slow roasted belly of pork and there's also dishes such as roasted figs, parma ham and dolcelatte that suggest a touch of subtlety from chef Adam Barnacle. It's clearly hoping to rival local venues such as the Golden Fleece in South Croxton and the Bull's Head in Woodhouse Eaves. If you get to eat there soon – do let us know your thoughts.
March of the Buffets
September 13, 2011
First the good news. The Litten Tree – that tatty, mothballed pub that has for some time been a wart on the airbrushed good looks of High Cross – is slated for redevelopment into a restaurant. Now the "meh" news – the planned occupant is Red Hot World Buffet. The Leicester branch will join Nottingham, Northampton, Manchester, Leeds, Milton Keynes and Liverpool in offering you the chance to have Indian, Italian, Mexican, Chinese etc all in the same place, for an inclusive price, alongside several hundered others. I've been to the Nottingham one and when I say it was better than Leicester's Zucchero, I'm not really paying that much of a compliment.
It's a fairly brash, go-ahead business so no doubt you'll get to hear when it's nearer to launch. It joins the soon-to-open More on London Road as the latest mega-buffet and while I can see why they have an attraction, it will be a great pity if they take business away from smaller restaurants that are trying to do something more interesting. I can't help but feel that a fundamental part of their appeal is they take away risk – the risk that you might not like something, that you might somehow embarass yourself by misprouncing something, ordering the wrong thing. Go to a big shed where everyone just piles in and you can stay safe and anonymous – like the food. I think I actually quite like risk.
Slightly different in scale will be Lupa di Roma on Market Street, in the premises of a former Cornish pasty shop. Don't know much about it other than it bills itself as a tavola calda, so is likely to be simple food – pizza, pasta, pannini – in a cafeteria/buffet format.
Maiyango Kitchen Deli
September 6, 2011
By and large, Leicester city centre has struggled to support a really good deli. Stones in St Martin's prospered for a while, there's the market and a couple of Polish enterprises and the revamped Rutland and Derby is an innovative response, but mostly delis survive out in the suburbs and in farmshops. So it's great to see Maiyango extend their succesful brand with the launch of a Kitchen Deli on 1 October.
Located on Highcross Street round the corner from their restaurant and below their hotel, it promises fresh bread baked with locally produced flour, pastries, petit fours, pasta, chutneys, pickles, cordials, spice blends and sauces. Much of it will be made in their own kitchens, using local produce and they will be running a veg exchange scheme to encourage local small-scale growers to swap their produce for Maiyango goodies. It will also offer the chance to eat in and to have stuff delivered locally by bike.
I've admired owner Aatin Anadkat's commitment to Leicester and enjoyed Maiyango's food both at the restaurant and at catered events and am confident this will be a real boon to the city.
Another quick note – the lovely Belgrave Hall Good Food Fair takes place on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 September. Lots of local suppliers of good food in a charming setting from 11am to 4pm. I'll be there Sunday.
Born and Bread
September 3, 2011
A reminder that as of Thursday, Leicester Born and Bread is now up and trading and providing handmade, small-batch bread for the Leicester masses. Jessica has now added prices to the website and is also now using organic flour from the Whissendine windmill in Rutland. You can pick up the likes of a small white sandwich loaf for just £1, half a dozen cheese and spring onion rolls for £3.50 or a herb fougasse for £2.50.
