Venice, Italy
02.08.17 – 06.08.17
This summer, my two friends Dia, Barbara and I decided to take a trip to Venice, Italy. We really wanted to get away for a while, just the three of us, and thankfully Ryanair had great fares from Budapest to Venice. We went for four nights so we could experience the city properly. After the short one hour flight, we arrived at Treviso Airport and took a direct bus to Piazza Roma at the edge of Venice. From here, we walked until we reached our AirBnB in the district of Cannaregio. The apartment we rented was the perfect size and it had everything we could have needed, with the unfortunate exception of an air conditioner. The whole time we were there, the temperature was around 36C or higher, and with the added humidity it was quite a struggle to deal with these conditions throughout the trip.
We arrived late afternoon, so once we were settled we searched for the closest well-rated restaurant, and ended up finding a lovely family-run place where we were seated in a courtyard with plants, lights and many cats 🙂 . All three of us are huge fans of seafood, so we ordered plenty of it such as vongole (clams) and gamberetti (prawns), with spaghetti.
The first day we went to visit the Piazza San Marco (St. Mark Square), the Palazzo Ducale (Doge's Palace), the Basilica San Marco (St. Mark's Basilica) and the San Marco Campanile (St. Mark's Bell Tower). These are a must-see for anyone who visits Venice, as they all play a vital part in the city's history. My most memorable experience was going to the top of the bell tower; the views to the city are breathtaking. Thankfully, my friend pre-booked the tickets to visit all of these places and we were able to skip the lines (this is something that I highly recommend to do!). We were taken to the top of the tower by an elevator, and there we were able to enjoy the beautiful view and cool breeze.
This was my third time going to Venice, and there is something I wanted to point out to anyone that plans to visit in the future; the best gelato place in the whole city! I have yet to find a place in Venice where they make better ice cream than at the Gelateria Cá d'Oro Venezia. Every time that I visited I fell in love with their unique flavours of gelato, my personal favourites being mango and melon. My friend also had sesame seed flavoured gelato, which she loved. They also have these amazing popsicles on display!
On our second day, we took the water bus to visit the nearby islands of Murano and Burano. First, we went to Murano, which is the island known for its glass making. We didn't spend too much time here as we all had been before, and we were really curious to see Burano. I think this was my favourite place that we visited throughout the trip. Apart from its textile making, Burano is known for its one of a kind architecture and colour scheme. The cute colourful houses are so unique and I fell in love with them immediately! We spent a good amount of time wandering the streets, trying to discover the hidden alleys and streets of the island.
It was really fun to get lost in the tiny streets and wonder away from the large tourist groups. A highlight of the visit was when we stumbled upon a small neighbourhood that was mainly inhabited by old ladies, and we could smell their delicious home cooking through the windows. We looked like complete tourists but it was so much fun!
On the third day, we visited the Rialto Bridge and the Rialto Market, where I bought lemon flavoured salt for cooking, and my friends got fruit as well. For the afternoon we had tickets to visit the Museo Correr, which is located at the St. Mark Square. It has plenty of statues, paintings, and an old historic library. We also did a little bit of shopping because I was desperately in need of some loose clothes so that I could survive the heat! We spent the rest of the day walking around and getting lost in the streets. In the evening, we went back to the restaurant we went to on the first night, and ordered a huge plate of frutti di mare (seafood); it was delicious!
I really enjoyed this short but amazing trip, and it definitely wouldn't have been the same without my amici ( friends 🙂 ). It was a perfect finish to the summer and I hope that I can go on another vacation soon. Until then,
Lili ♡

Too busy?
About a month ago, I found out that I need to take summer classes this summer. If I want to be able to take my third year classes this fall, I need to take at least two classes this summer. So that's what I am doing. Now the job problem awaits. I don't know what to do. I will have 1 class all of June, and then another class all through July and August. This fall and winter, I have taught piano lessons for that little bit of extra income. But piano lessons are just about done! Now what?
My priority this summer is spending time with my "new husband." He works during the day, and I will be taking classes for half the day. Now here are my options
1) I go to school in the morning for half the day. I do homework in the afternoons and then my nights are free to hang out with Jon. + I get lots of Jon time – We only have his income
2) I go to school in the morning, work the afternoons at some part time job, then have nights to do homework and spend time with Jon. + We will have a little extra income – Either I will not get a lot of homework done, or I will not get a lot of time to spend with Jon
3) Go to school in the morning, do homework in the afternoons and then work a night time serving job at a restaraunt or something. +We will have quite a bit extra income due to better tips (supper hours) – Will not get hardly any time to spend with Jon
You would think that it's an easy choice. Devote the first 4 months of your marriage to your new husband, and take the cut in the income for a couple months. But my only problem with this is that I have never been not busy. If this is the path I choose to take, I don't know what I am going to do with myself for all day. I think I might just go crazy.
So for anyone who is reading this, I would love for you to comment and tell me what option you think I should do. It's kind of like a survey I guess!

3 weeks left!
Oh my goodness! Slight freak out today. There's only three weeks left until the wedding. That is absolutely insane. Don't get me wrong, I'm loving it, but it's still insane. On Saturday's we have our pre-marital counseling with our pastor. It has actually been quite the pleasant experience. Not anything like what you see on the movies.
There are a few things that have been really important to learn. One of those was "how to fight." Jon and I have issues with fighting. When we fight, it takes us forever to resolve it. We both won't talk for a really long time, then one person usually drives home and then a half an hour later someone calls and apologizes and then we explain ourselves, and then everything is good. In counselling we have talked about how it's important to take those breaks to go think about everything and not blow up at the other person, but those breaks need to be timed. We have decided that we can't go for more than an hour without resolving the conflict, or else it just builds up and builds up then some day all of the frustrations will come pouring out and we will have so many things to deal with. Apparently the key to fighting nice is dealing with problems as they come. Don't ever let any un-resolved problems go. This way it keeps the air "free."
Another important thing we have learned about is our characteristics. For one, I am the biggest feeler ever. I love talking about things and I am quite emotional. On the other hand Jon is quite "steady." He doesn't need to talk about things in depth and he's not that emotional. Put these two personalities together and you get an interesting mix. (Although interesting, God has deliberately brought us as opposites together. I really believe that) Together we have learned that sometimes I just need to know that Jon doesn't want to talk about stuff. He sometimes just doesn't feel like talking (I know, how can that be possible!) And he just likes his space. But me, yes I like to talk about everything. When he comes back from the youth group he works at, I want to hear how it went. I want him to share his heart about the night and all the amazing things that must have happened. He just sees it as any old night. We have learned how to compromise. Sometimes Jon needs to talk and share with me, and sometimes I just need to let him be quiet and not pressure him to talk. I am sure that all of these differences will be even more evident when we're married, but honestly I can not wait. I can't wait to see how God is going to work through our marriage to bring us closer to Himself.Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( None so far )

Deploys EmpCenter Suite Across the Organization
LIVONIA, MI--(Marketwired - Apr 24, 2013) - WorkForce Software, the leading provider of workforce management solutions for organizations with complex labor policies and stringent compliance demands, today announced that Fort Wayne Community Schools has selected its EmpCenter suite to improve the efficiency of time capture, pay rule calculation, and leave case management for all employees.
The largest school district in Indiana, Fort Wayne Community Schools (FWCS) educates more than 30,000 students each year and operates 51 schools ranging from pre-K through high school. In an effort to redesign and optimize its HR processes, the school district has embarked on a multi-phased overhaul of its core systems, starting with the areas that bring the greatest return on investment.
For FWCS, the starting point was workforce management.
"An evaluation of our current processes made clear that removing manual intervention from time capture, attendance tracking, and FMLA compliance would generate the greatest time and cost savings for our organization," commented Jack Byrd, Director of Technology for FWCS. "We wanted a solution that could accommodate our intricate K-12 requirements as well as our compliance demands, without customization or work outside the system."
As a large school district, FWCS contends with a number of complex workforce management issues unique to K-12 education, including multiple assignments. Additionally, the district's distributed locations needed a standard approach to managing critical HR and compliance functions, while also allowing for unique or site-specific requirements. After a detailed review of providers with K-12 expertise, the district chose to partner with WorkForce Software.
"We are excited about the implementation of WorkForce Software's EmpCenter suite because it helps address two critical goals on a single platform," added Byrd. "EmpCenter's configurability allows us to automate all of our complex pay rules, while its ACT solution provides an unmatched degree of case management and compliance support for the FMLA."
FWCS will be able to streamline multiple assignments and other intricate K-12 requirements with EmpCenter -- delivering substantial efficiencies gains as a result. These improvements, combined with the ability to centralize leave management and simplify compliance with the FMLA across the enterprise, represent major milestones in the district's initiative to transform HR.
"Fort Wayne Community Schools has an ambitious roadmap for improving efficiencies throughout the organization," added Mark Kurowski, Vice President of Global Services. "We are delighted to welcome another K-12 district into our client community, and look forward to helping them streamline FMLA compliance and other key workforce processes."

So I must first apologize for the poor quality of this picture. The sun has not come out yet and I just couldn't get enough lighting to make this turn out right. Anyway, my oldest son's baseball team played in the in-house championship tournament yesterday evening and came away undefeated in both regular season and in the playoffs. 100% undefeated! Way to go team!! You truly are champions! They have worked so hard all season and really deserved to come away the winners. They had 6 shutouts in 13 games, scored 160+ runs, and only gave up 30 runs against them. I must say, though, it will be nice to have a little breather from baseball.
You must head over to the Amuseapalooza blog today as a few winners have been named....is one of them you?! Keep your eye on the contests, challenges, and drawings for a chance to be a future winner.
You might also want to head over to The Saltbox Studio (link in my sidebar). I believe today is the release of the Hens and Chicks set. This looks to be a fabulously cute set...have you seen all the samples done by the Design Team? Waaay cute! I'll be posting a sample this week for sure!
ETA: I updated the picture. The sun still isn't out yet but it's a little brighter outside...

How are you guys?
I meant to post before the weekend but I just didn't get a chance to do so. Today's post is about the past weekend and some of my new tasty discovery…
On Saturday we had a really heavy rain over here (and I mean it when I say "heavy"), since we had a work event scheduled. It was an outdoor 24hour yoga challenge. I was schedule to teach at 4pm but I went there around noon time just to hang out with my " yoga circle". Even thou it was super duper cold it was a great experience to practice outside with the rain in the background. Besides the place was beautiful…
I am really sorry I didn't take any other pictures, I just completely forgot that I took my camera. I taught a Mandala style class, sometimes I like to do that in the class too, to shift things around,,,,;)
Sunday: I was happy to have a half day off. I was pretty tired physically to begin with, then I had my regular class and after I just wanted to enjoy the rest of my day. Tom took us for a drive to Toronto; finding some new places and enjoying the ride
I found a new place that I am already in love with. The Bunner's bakery-(gluten free of course). Honestly I heard about it before but never had a chance to get there. They have the best Cinnamon buns in the world and delicious cupcakes and yummy bread….I highly recommend that place.
There would be no trip to Toronto without stopping at Fresh Restaurant to eat. I just adore this place , the culture there and the food …
I know IWe should give a chance to some other places. (I have a few on my list to check it out already) but each time we talk where to go we both end up with the same conclusion. The only thing I would say is:" a bit too much sprouts guys"
I look "funny" on this picture sorryyyyy;))))
One the way home we stopped at Starbucks for our Americano and we enjoyed our goods in the car-messy stuff;)
The end.
I have a recipe ready for you so stay tune,

Okay as Strokes of Genius is my baby so to speak....imho it should be the place where you put reviews on any audio item, some of which should/could go into other rooms (normally) but rather than a few lines (which might be fine for other rooms) a SOG item/review (I hope) will have more depth to it and length.
Does that help ?

Farewell Possum's : Dame Edna final tour
Every now and again, there comes a must see event that you've always wanted to do but you can put off no longer.
I am a big fan of Dame Edna and with Barry Humphries not getting any younger – he is 80 – this is the farewell tour. Assuming Barry doesn't pop his clogs by then, I really want to see this.
Since the tour is coming nowhere near my part of the US, I must travel.
Here are my choices:
Los Angeles – Ahmanson Theatre 24 January – 15 March
San Francisco – Orpheum Theatre 17 – 22 March
Palm Desert – McCallum Theatre 30 March – 4 April
Toronto – Royal Alexandra Theatre 9 – 19 April
Washington DC – National Theatre 21 – 26 April
I think Mrs Caesar and I are going to be taking a mini-break around this.
Washington in springtime sounds great but we will miss the Cherry Blossom festival which is on April 11.
Decisions. Decisions.
Wherever I go, let's make sure I pack some Gladiolus instead of my Gladius. Homeland security will not be impressed with such misunderstandings.

Dear Friends –
We send our prayers and strength to those struggling in the crisis in Haiti and to the loved ones of those who have perished.
Many great teachers tell us that it is in times like these we need to be strong and stay open-hearted, to give our help on the material level as much as we are able, and to give our prayers and courage too. It is also important not to sink into fear and guilt. Those who are in extreme suffering do not need more of these negative emotions, they need our positive energy and courage.
To manage our own feelings when we see fellow humans in a hell-realm it is helpful, as always, to do our practice. Whether it is our prayer, meditation practice, breathing, or posture practice, or better yet – all of them. When we do our practice, we notice that afterwards the world appears a little calmer, and hope begins again.
Breathe into your heart – breathe out from your heart – may we not waste a moment withholding love.
In peace – Max Strom

Styling the Wedding Party with a Ties and Maids post is here again! Let's get one thing straight, I believe Convertible Dresses are the truth! I mean, "fit for every body type" and "versatile" is almost all I need to be sold about a dress.
Convertible dresses make me think of gorgeous mismatched bridesmaids looks. When talking of mismatching styles, it can either be in dress styles, in colors or in both. Today's mismatched bridesmaids look is done with both. Pink and purple is yet another favorite mismatching color for me, not only because purple is my favorite color but pink and purple together is so radiant orchid! It's kinda hard not to love the color combination.
Spotting on my Pinterest feed these gorgeous dresses with a beautiful color combination was an indication to share such beauty with KV's readers with a KV twist; Ties and Maids. Not only are we swooning over the bridesmaids, but in this series we look at how to style the groomsmen with their ties. If the men are up for mismatching, doing so with ties is also a great way, however picking a single color for all the groomsmen could work with mismatched bridesmaids too.
Here is our Pink Purple Ties and Maids to get your wedding party styling right.

Bad Lip Reading Turned 'Star Wars' Into a Hilarious R&B Song
In a nearly record-breaking weekend, Star Wars: The Last Jedi arrived to divide everyone with its departures from the Star Wars norm. With all the debates over Snoke's role and revelations about Rey's parents, it'd be nice if we could all just get together and be friends again. You know, like when The Phantom Menace came out and everyone hated it together.
The folks at Bad Lip Reading have provided the opportunity for you to reach across the aisle and shake hands with your old school Star Wars friend who is still seething about the brooding Luke Skywalker. The new release is essentially a music video of a horrible and hilarious song set to the battle on Hoth from The Empire Strikes Back.
If you're a Star Wars nerd, but for Bad Lip Reading, this might look familiar. A short version of this song appeared in a longer Bad Lip Reading video that re-dubbed about 15 minutes of Empire. This new video is an extended, full version of that song.
The old one was released right around the time The Force Awakens dropped in 2015. You can watch it below if you haven't had enough time with this nonsensical alternate reality Star Wars.

With Client Distribution for iOS, your app will be distributed in the public Apple App Store. This is the most common way to distribute your app.
To get started, first, complete the app creation process in the CMS. DoubleDutch will build the app for you with placeholder certificates and bundle names. Your DoubleDutch representative will send you all the relevant image files and the app binaries in ZIP files.
Then follow the steps below.
WARNING: you must have a Mac computer in order to complete the full iOS app distribution process!
Note: click on the name of each step to view the process.
In order to start the process of publishing your iOS app to the App Store, someone in your organization will need to enroll in Apple's Developer Program. Once your organization enrolls in the Developer Program, you will then have a Developer Account.
To enroll in Apple's Developer Program, follow the steps at:
IMPORTANT: make sure you enroll as an Organization, NOT as an Individual.
For more information on enrolling in Apple's Developer Program, click here.
Once you have a Developer Account, the person who enrolled will be considered the account holder and has the capability to grant users access and delegate responsibilities.
Note: enrollment in Apple's Developer Program costs $99 annually.
The second step to complete and publish your app is to create a unique App ID in your Apple Developer account. Creating an App ID is necessary in order to register, upload, and distribute an app.
Follow the steps below to create your App ID:
- Navigate to Apple Developer and log in with your credentials.
- Click on 'Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles'.
- Click on the Identifiers section in the left menu. Above the list and to the right of the Identifiers title, you will see a "+" sign. Click this to create a new App ID.
On the next screen, click the radio button next to App IDs. Then click 'Continue'.
- Now you will see a form that needs to be filled in to register a new App ID:
- Make sure the "iOS, tvOS, watchOS" radio button is selected.
- Type the name of the app in the Description field. Be specific and avoid generic terms because all app names in iTunes have to be unique. Also, confirm your Team ID.
- Now you will need to fill in a unique Bundle ID for this App ID. A Bundle ID is typically a reverse URL or domain name of your organization, coupled with the app name. This is done in order to create a truly unique identifier for your app. (e.g. com.companydomain.appname)
- The services your app supports and that should be enabled are: Associated Domains, Game Center, In-App Purchase, and most importantly Push Notifications. Apple has determined that Game Center and In-App Purchase are to be mandatory for all apps. The last service will enable you to send Push Notifications to attendees from the CMS. Then, click 'Continue'.
- You will be taken to an overview to check the data you have entered. If it is correct, click on 'Register'.
A Push Notification Certificate is necessary in order to send push notifications to attendees via your app. In order to create a Push Notification Certificate, follow the steps below.
- Navigate to Apple Developer and log in.
- Click on 'Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles'.
- Select 'Identifiers', locate your app, and click on the name.
- Scroll down the page to "Push Notifications" and click 'Configure'.
- A pop-up window will appear. Click on 'Create Certificate' under Production SSL Certificate.
- Click 'Learn More' under "Upload a Certificate Signing Request" to learn how to create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) file. Then go back to Apple Developer and click 'Choose File'.
- Use Finder to find your CSR file, select it, and click on 'Open' in the dialog window. It will now be visible in the browser. Click on 'Continue'; it will take a moment to show the next window.
- Click on 'Continue'; it may take a moment to show the next window.
- Your certificate is ready for download. Click on 'Download'.
- Locate the downloaded file, called "aps.cer", on your Mac and click on it. It will trigger Keychain Access to open.
- To find the certificate in Keychain Access, you can use the Search field in the top-right of the dialog window. Type in the Bundle ID of the App ID. You can now confirm that the Push Certificate was correctly created, is valid, and has an associated private key.
- Next, you will export this certificate and save it as a .P12 file. First, you must unselect it in the list. Click somewhere below the certificate in an empty space in the Keychain Access dialog window.
- Right-click on the certificate to show the contextual menu. In the menu that appears, select Export: "Apple Push Services..."
- A dialog box will open. Select a location to save the file. Give it a recognizable name. For example, "appname_pushcert". Then click 'Save'.
- Another dialog will open, asking you to enter a password, which will protect the P12 file. Type in "doubledutch2019" and enter it twice as requested. Click 'OK'.
- Next, send the saved P12 file in an email to your DoubleDutch representative. The DoubleDutch App Operations team will upload this to the back-end admin system. You will be notified when you can test Push Notifications on your app.
Note: Push Notification Certificates expire after 12 months. You will receive an email from Apple when that occurs; please let your DoubleDutch representative know when your certificate expires. At that time you will create a new Push Notification Certificate by following the process mentioned above. Also, you will need a Mac computer in order to create your push notification certificate or else push messages won't work.
A Distribution Certificate identifies your organization within a distribution provisioning profile and allows you to submit your app to the store.
IMPORTANT: you will only need to create one Distribution Certificate for your Developer Account, even if you have multiple apps.
To create a Distribution Certificate:
- Log in to Apple Developer.
- Click on 'Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles'.
- The next screen should default to the "Certificates" section.
- Click on the '+' button to add a new certificate.
- Select 'iOS Distribution (App Store and Ad Hoc)' from the Software options, then click 'Continue'.
- Click 'Continue' again.
- Click 'Choose File' and select the CSR file you previously created. Then click 'Continue'.
- Click the 'Download' button to download a .cer file.
- Double-click the .cer file to install it in Keychain Access.
If you encounter any issues during the app distribution process, a DoubleDutch representative may ask you to send a P12 version of your distribution certificate. Here are the steps to create the P12 file:
- Go to Keychain Access, and search for the distribution certificate.
- Next, you will export this certificate and save it as a .P12 file. First, you must unselect it in the list. Click somewhere below the certificate in an empty space in the Keychain Access dialog window.
- Right-click on the certificate to show the contextual menu. In the menu that appears, select Export: "Apple Push Services..."
- A dialog box will open. Select a location to save the file. Give it a recognizable name. For example, "appname_distrocert". Then click 'Save'.
- Another dialog will open, asking you to enter a password, which will protect the P12 file. Type in "doubledutch2019" and enter it twice as requested. Click 'OK'.
- Next, another dialog will open; input your computer password and click 'Allow'.
- Next, send the saved P12 file in an email to your DoubleDutch representative. The DoubleDutch App Operations team will upload this to the back-end admin system.
Note: sending your Distribution Certificate to DoubleDutch is completely optional and only necessary in cases where you have asked DoubleDutch to troubleshoot app distribution issues. Also, Distribution Certificates expire after 12 months. You will receive an email from Apple when that occurs. At that time you will create a new Distribution Certificate by following the process mentioned above.
Provisioning Profiles are needed to define how and to which devices your app will be distributed. Without a Provisioning Profile, you cannot distribute an app through the App Store, or through your own internal distribution method.
- Go to Apple Developer and log in with your credentials.
- Click on 'Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles'.
- Click on the 'Profiles' section. Then click on the '+' next to the "Profiles" title.
- Select the radio button next to "App Store" underneath the Distribution heading. This is the Provisioning Profile needed in order to be able to upload your app to App Store Connect. Then click on the 'Continue' button at the top.
Note: if you are publishing your app via Enterprise Distribution you will select "In House" instead of "App Store".
- Next, you will be asked to select an App ID with which to associate this Provisioning Profile. Click on the drop-down list and select the App ID that belongs to your app. Then click the 'Continue' button.
- Next, you will be asked to select the Distribution Certificate that this Provisioning Profile will be linked to. Most likely, you will have only one. Select that certificate by clicking on the radio button next to it. Then click 'Continue'.
- The final step is to give this Provisioning Profile a name. It is best to give it the same name as your app. You can also include today's date, to document the date of creation. Then click on 'Generate'.
- You can then download the generated Provisioning Profile and save it to your desktop.
When distributing your iOS app through your own iTunes account you will have to re-codesign the binary file (.ipa).
Downloading the Re-Codesign Package
In order to get started, you will need to download and unzip the DoubleDutch App Operations Re-codesign Package, mentioned in Item 6 of the Prerequisites list.
- Go to https://bit.ly/ddrecodesign
- Download the re-codesign package file.
- Find the ZIP file on your Mac and double-click on it.
- It will unpack and create a folder called "recodesign-master". This folder contains all the tools for re-codesigning.
Note: please make sure you download the latest re-codesign package file since DoubleDutch makes sure it gets updated as needed.
Prerequisites for Successful Re-Codesigning
- A Mac computer.
- Transporter installed on the Mac. If you don't have Transporter downloaded you can download it here.
- Xcode 10.1 or higher installed on the Mac. If you don't have Xcode downloaded you can download it here.
- Command Line Tools installed on the Mac, compatible with the version of Xcode you have installed.
- Your organization's iOS Production Distribution Certificate, with the associated private key, in your Mac's Keychain Access.
- The Provisioning Profile belonging to this app, with Associated Domains and Push Notifications enabled, downloaded onto your Mac computer.
- The re-codesign package, provided by DoubleDutch.
- The .ipa (the binary file format of iOS apps) on your Mac. You will have received this from DoubleDutch.
Re-Codesigning your iOS App
- Open the "codesign" folder where you have the recodesign.sh script and the Terminal window.
- Then, drag & drop the recodesign.sh file into the Terminal window. This will display the entire path of the script file.
- Then, drag & drop the Provisioning Profile file you downloaded from your Apple Developer account.
- Finally, drag & drop the .ipa file you received into the Terminal window.
- You will then see the full path of the files; the makeup of the entire command is the script, followed by two "arguments" – the binary file and the Provisioning Profile. If the two arguments are not there, or incorrect, the script will fail.
- Then hit the 'Enter/Return' key. An example of the Terminal output is shown below:
- When the script is done, you will have a new folder on your Desktop called "Codesign_Output". The script will automatically open it. This folder will contain the re-codesigned .ipa file and an entitlements.plist file. The latter can be used for troubleshooting, so do not delete it. It might also be useful to take a screenshot of the Terminal output, for reference and/or troubleshooting.
Note: you will notice that the Bundle ID of the app will be been injected into the file name of the .ipa. The script does this for the sake of documentation and clarity.
- You can close the open windows and proceed to upload your app to your App Store Connect account.
Final Technical Notes on Re-Codesigning
This app claims two specific entitlements: Apple's Push Notification Services and Keychain Access. Push Notifications rely on a setting in the Provisioning Profile.
- Push Notifications Services must be enabled on your Provisioning Profile for re-codesigning to be successful.
- If Push Notifications are not available in the Provisioning Profile, the script will output the message: "This provisioning profile doesn't have push entitlement!"
- Keychain Access is necessary to store the user's login and password combination so that the user can access the app, after closing and reopening, without re-logging in.
App Store Connect is used to submit and manage your app. After you've created an Apple Developer account, you can use the same credentials to log in to App Store Connect.
Once you've logged in to App Store Connect, you should see a screen that looks similar to the one below.
If at any time you have any questions about App Store Connect, please refer to Apple's App Store Connect Guide.
The steps below will show you how to successfully fill in an app listing in App Store Connect and submit your app for review for the first time.
- Log in to App Store Connect.
- Next, click on the 'My Apps' button to go to the overview of your apps.
- Since this is the first time you will be uploading and publishing your app, a new app listing needs to be created. Click on the '+' sign in the top-left of the window and choose to create a 'New App'.
- After that, a new window will pop up and ask you for several details about your new app listing.
- Select the iOS check box.
- Enter a unique name into the "Name" field. If you enter a name that has already been used in the App Store or registered by another developer, the name field will turn red and give an error.
- Choose a primary language for your app listing.
- Choose the Bundle ID you created earlier for this app, you can click on the drop-down menu and find your Bundle ID in the list.
- Finally, enter an SKU – this is meant as a "code identifier", however, it is not really important for publishing. Simply entering the App Name in all capitals, followed by a number is sufficient.
- Then click on 'Create'.
- Your app listing should be created now and you will be taken to the App Information section. You will see your app name and Bundle ID, your app's newly created and assigned Apple ID number and a few fields on the right that need filling in.
- The privacy policy URL should be the DoubleDutch privacy policy. This can be found here: http://doubledutch.me/privacy/
- The Category of your app falls under the "Productivity" category.
- After making these changes, click on 'Save' in the top-right of the window to save your work before going to the next section.
- Next, click on 'Pricing and Availability' in the left menu.
- Here you will select the 'zero' price for your app and the countries your app will be available in. By default, your app will be available in all countries.
This is normal and fine. If you choose to limit the availability of your app to your country, this is at your own risk for the adoption of your app and the support response time by DoubleDutch.
Note: it is strongly advised to leave the USA, Netherlands, and the Philippines checked in the availability list so that DoubleDutch can provide support swiftly if needed. These are the countries we operate out of.
You can safely ignore the "Volume Purchase Program" section, seeing as your app is being offered for free.
- Click on 'Save' in the top-right to save your work.
- Then navigate to the "Prepare for Submission" section in the menu, here you will upload images, the icon, and fill in the app description.
- First, you can upload the splash screen images and screenshots of your app into the screenshot area. You can drag and drop the images into the field. There are four tabs where you'll add your images: iPhone 6.5" Display, iPhone 5.5" Display, iPad Pro (3rd Gen) 12.9"Display, and iPad Pro (2nd Gen) 12.9" Display.
Each device requires at least two images and of certain dimensions. See the Annex below for a list of the dimension requirements of each device. Drag the two images into the field, then click on the next device tab to do the same for that device. When you are finished, click on 'Save' to save your work before continuing to the next section.
Note: screenshots are provided by DoubleDutch in the link containing the IPA file.
- Next, you can fill in the "Description" field. The text you enter here will be visible as the app's description in the App Store. Beware; there are some limitations to this field.
- Next, to the description field, you can see the Keywords, Support URL, and Marketing URL. In the "Keywords" field, you can enter the app name and event name as default terms. The Support URL is the link to where users can find support for the app, which is https://attendeesupport.doubledutch.me. The Marketing URL is the marketing description of the app, which is http://doubledutch.me/product/event-app/.
- Continue to the next step in the distribution process: "Uploading your App to App Store Connect", then come back to this section to complete the rest of the steps.
- The next section is the "Build" section where you can select the app build to attach to this app listing. This is the re-codesigned IPA you created during the re-codesigning process.
Click on the '+' sign next to the heading, under "Build", and select your build in the window that pops up. You can monitor the status of the upload within the "Activity" tab.
Note: it can take up to 15 minutes for the "+" sign to appear after uploading your app build.
- Click on 'Save' in the top-right to save your work.
- Next, you can drag and drop your app icon image into the App Icon field.
Note: the App Icon must have dimensions of 1024 x 1024 pixels!
- Next to the app icon section, you can see the Copyright and Trade Representative section. The copyright belongs to DoubleDutch, Inc. The Trade Representative Contact Information can be filled in with the contact information of your organization – where your Apple Developer has been registered as residing.
- Afterward, the app needs a Rating. You can see the rating section underneath the App Icon section. By default, when you first create the app listing, the app has no rating. You have to answer several questions in order to determine the rating of your app. Click on 'Edit' to open up a window with the questions.
Note: These are the default answers given about apps published by DoubleDutch. If your app will contain any information about alcohol, tobacco, drug use, gambling, or medical topics, please adjust the rating.
- Next, you can fill in the App Review Information. Here you can enter the contact information of the person responsible for the Apple Developer account within your organization. Typically, it is the person that has been given the Account Holder role in your organization. All fields are required to be filled.
Below that, there is a Demo Account field. This is the user account that Apple Reviewers will use to log into the app and check its functionality and viability for the App Store. Input an email address from your organization here and then make sure that you add the email as an attendee in the CMS for your events.
- Next, you can enter something into the Notes field. Best practice is to enter a secondary contact in case the App Reviewer needs more information to approve the app. Include information like a telephone number and email address. This field is not visible in the app listing in the App Store.
- Finally, you can determine when the app will be released into the App Store. Typically, it is best to leave it on the default setting "Automatically release this version" so that your app is available as soon as possible. If for some reason you would like to have your app only available from a certain date, you can choose this. However, please discuss the implications of this with your DoubleDutch representative.
Note: it takes at least one day for the app to visible in all countries after being released into the App Store. It can happen that after 'going live' the app will be seen immediately in the USA, but it will take several hours for it to be visible in the App Store in the Netherlands. This is something to consider when planning a specific date for app release.
- Click on 'Save' to finalize your work and continue to app submission.
- After you have saved your work, the button to "Submit for Review" should be colored in and ready to be clicked. Click on it. You will be taken to another page with three final questions about your app. The following are the default answers for your app:
- Export Compliance – No
- Content Rights – No
- Advertising Identifier (IDFA) - No
- Click on 'Submit'. You will be taken back to your app listing now and the status should have changed to "Waiting for Review".
You're finished!
Note: it can take about 2-10 days for your app to be reviewed, please plan accordingly with your DoubleDutch representative.
Annex - iOS Device Screenshot Dimensions
The dimensions below are the required screenshots for an app listing, the other iOS device specific screenshots have become optional.
The dimensions below are in pixels – width by height.
- iPhone X - 1125 x 2436
- iPhone 6 – 4.7 inch 750 x 1334
- iPhone 6 Plus – 5.5 inch 1242 x 2208

- iPhone 4 – 3.5 inch 640 x 960
- iPad 768 x 1024
- iPad Pro – 12.9 inch 2048 x 2732
For a detailed guide on screenshot dimension requirements, you can view Apple's documentation here.
After you have re-codesigned your iOS app, you should be able to upload the binary file to your App Store Connect account. If you are uploading the app to your internal app store, see the administrator of your Mobile Application Management System.
You can upload your app to App Store Connect by using the Transporter app on your Mac.
Follow the steps below to upload your app successfully to your App Store Connect account.
- Find the Transporter app on your Mac. You can open Spotlight search and type in "transporter". It will be the top hit.
- Open the app and log into the app with the credentials you use to log into App Store Connect. Apple may ask you to create an app-specific password during this step. You can find the directions on how to create an app-specific password here.
- Drag the .ipa file you re-codesigned, from the Codesign_Output folder on your Desktop, to the "Add App" screen of Transporter.
- Then you will see an overview of the app's details. Click on 'Deliver' to proceed with uploading.
- The upload process will take a few minutes. Afterward, you can close Transporter.
To complete the process, go back to the "How to Fill in an App Store Connect App Listing" process, and continue from step 16.
Note: any subsequent changes will need to be discussed with your DoubleDutch representative. For instance, if you revoke and renew a Push Notification Certificate.

For the first time in a long time I have been away from the brush for four days. We went to Mount Tremblant to ski with old friends. Was I hardy enough for this?
Near the Summit at -37℃ Plus Wind Chill
I have painted this year at -17℃, but out of the wind. Just couldn't take it for too long. Getting to be a wimp I guess.
Fuddle Duddle, North Side
Once I got warmed up my mind turned privately to painting. I think I can make something interesting and foreboding from this. Give the ole memory a workout. Didn't bring any painting stuff.
But, before that, I decided to stay true to the weekly still life. In the warm studio I laid an interesting tube of Kama paint on the small pochade palette and painted away. The concept was to explore warm light on the tube, while using more expressive brushwork than in the recent stills.
Orange Foncé, 6x8, Oil on Board
Rather a shock after the Winter colours above. The palette used is in the image. I added Lead White. The yellow ochre was mixed from Cad Yellow, Ultramarine Blue, and Cad Red Middle. The Orange Foncé and the Cad Red Light were also used. The other dabs are just remnants on the palette. The good news is, the four day layoff didn't bother me.

One of the biggest political stories today centers on whether Elizabeth Warren — who has shown absolutely no interest in running for the Democratic nomination in 2016 — will challenge Hillary Clinton, who has made it clear that she has no interest in declaring her intentions anytime soon.
Meanwhile, coming off a win in which 38 percent of New Jersey residents bothered to vote, Chris Christie is being anointed the frontrunner on the GOP side. NBC conducted a poll this week which found that he was leading a pack of… one for the nomination – they didn't include any other candidates. But 32 percent of Republican voters said they'd back him! And only 31 percent said they'd prefer another candidate. NBC also found that were he to win the nomination, Hillary would beat him soundly.
These stories are the product of political journalists being bored writing about the rocky Obamacare rollout and Republican obstruction in Congress. They're about writers trawling for clicks. Three years out, they're not analyses that should be taken seriously.
After all, in November of 2009, the consensus view was that Sarah Palin was the woman to beat for the 2012 Republican nod. According to a Washington Post poll, she led Mike Huckabee by a healthy margin, with Mitt Romney coming in third. A Gallup poll from that same month found that most GOP voters – 65 percent — would "seriously consider" supporting then-Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour, edging out Palin, Newt Gingrich, Huckabee and, finally, Mitt Romney, who came in last.
Four years earlier, in 2005, Hillary Clinton was leading John Edwards and Al Gore in a crowded field of seven vying for the 2008 Democratic nomination. Not mentioned in that poll was a guy named Barack Obama, who had been introduced to the nation with a high-profile keynote address to the Democratic National Convention the previous year. On the GOP side, John McCain was trailing Rudy Giuliani and Condoleezza Rice at the time.
But the bigger problem is that speculation over who the presidential nominees will be three years from now ascribes too much power to whoever tops the ticket. For example, the question of whether Elizabeth Warren will challenge Hillary Clinton is really a proxy for discussing the future direction of the Democratic party. For five years, usually warring Democratic factions have been unified in revulsion toward the tea party's growing dominance within the GOP. But the divide between the centrist, Clintonian wing and what the late Senator Paul Wellstone called the "Democratic wing of the Democratic Party" still simmers beneath the surface, and there will likely be a reckoning during the 2016 nominating process.
The reality is that the fight over the direction of the party will determine the ideological lean of the nominee, not the other way around. Presidential nominees tend to hew closely to their party's median vote in Congress. If the Democrats end up adopting a more populist platform, than Clinton, if she runs, will move to the left regardless of who is challenging her. This kind of analysis is, of course, less fun than the horse race.
But another problem is that a three-year horse race is no fun at all. It's boring. And our drawn out election campaigns, during which we're bombarded by political ads (or at least we are if we live in contested states) may well contribute to Americans turning out to vote at an extremely low rate relative to other wealthy democracies – maybe we're just sick of these people by the time Election Day rolls around.
In any event, here's one vote that we declare a moratorium on 2016 speculation until at least… well, at least until the 2014 midterms are decided.

The HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy

In the fall of 1979, in the end of the Western Spiral arm of the Galaxy on a little blue-green planet, a man named Douglas Adams published a book. This book was called The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and it's a mixture of comedy, science fiction, satire, and philosophy. This has caused it to become one of the most popular cult books in history.
A little about the author
Douglas Adams was born March 11, 1952 in Cambridge, England. He attended the Brentwood School in Essay and graduated from St. John's College, Cambridge in 1974. He has worked as a hospital porter, barn builder, chicken-shed cleaner, bodyguard, radio producer, and script editor. He has also written, performed in, and directed many revues in London and Cambridge. He also worked together with Monty Python's Graham Chapman and wrote some things for Monty Python. While working at the BBC, he produced and wrote scripts for the radio and television series of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Adams' works include the HHGTTG "Trilogy", which actually contains five books: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life, the Universe and Everything, So Long, and Thanks For All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless; Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency and The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul; The Meaning of Life and The Deeper Meaning of Life; and Last Chance to See. Besides television and radio, the success of the series has led to different editions of the novels, including The Illustrated Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and an interactive fiction computer game.
Adams' style of writing mixes humor, absurdism, silliness, black comedy, and satire.
He uses all objects in his book to make them even more crazy. There are plenty of speaking objects in his books, creatures with crazy names (for example Slartibartfast).
The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy
The basic plot of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that Arthur Dent wakes up to find his house is about to be knocked down by a bulldozer. His friend, Ford Prefect, takes him to a pub and explains that the world is about to end. Just before a Vogon constructor fleet destroys the Earth, they hitchhike themselves of the earth. During their travels through the galaxy, they encounter many adventures.
The big plot of the story is about "The Great Question, The Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything." A very intelligent race has built a computer called "Deep Thought". The computer is set to answer the question above. When the program is started the computer tells the race that it will find the answer to the question, but that it will take 7500000 years! When it finally comes to the answer it simply tells them "42". He also gives the race the advice to build another computer to come up with the question. This program will take 10000000 years to run. This computer is by it inhabitants named Earth. Five minutes before the program is to be finished a Vogon construction fleet destroys earth to make way for a freeway. The planet Magrathea which is know for building planets gets the mission, from the race who originally wanted the earth built, to built a second earth. This race I'm talking about are actually mice. They stayed on the earth to do experiments on the people who lived on it.
Arthur eventually ends up on Magrathea, and there he also gets this whole thing explained to him. With this the first book of the "trilogy" of five ends. As I hope you have noticed from my review this is a book well worth reading, especially if you like English humor when it is at its best.
A part that just has to be mentioned
There is a sort of fish called Babel Fishes. These fishes, when put in your ears, gives you the ability to understand all languages.
Some people think that fish is the final proof of the nonexistence of God because it is so improbable that something so useful could have evolved by chance. Here follows a part from HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy:
"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."
"But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED."
"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.
"Oh, that was easy," says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets himself killed on the next zebra crossing. (chap 6)
The main character of the story is Arthur Dent. He is a common Englishman who wakes up one morning to find his house and the Earth about to be demolished to make room for freeways. He is one of the last survivors of the planet earth. Arthur is a very nice person who is so astonished by everything that happens to him that he wears a pajama through the whole story. But all things considered he is a very brave man, who after a while of thinking, and with help of a good cup of tea, can get used to even the strangest things.
Ford Prefect is also a survivor from earth. When the earth was destroyed he probably thought more about what he should write in his report about the earth that that it was just being destroyed. He comes from a small planet in the area of Betelgeuse. Ford was a friend of Arthur's who had given him out to be an actor for fifteen years while he was stuck on Earth. He originally came to Earth to do an update for the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, an electronic book that has lots of useful information in it. Ford is a real cool guy who thinks he always has the situation under control. When he sometimes discovers that he isn't in control, he denies it. Ford is a hitchhiker who loves parties and happenings, another strange thing about him is that he seems to like catastrophes.
Zaphod Beeblebrox is one of the strangest persons that a human mind can come up with. Zaphod has three arms and two heads. His extra arm and head were just added to help him getting better in ski-boxing. Zaphod is the president of the galaxy, but it can be a little hard to believe that because he just stole a new built starship when we encounter him in the book. Zaphod is a very smart guy, who tends to forget his brain. He seems very comfortable with himself, but he actually is surprised every time someone likes an idea of his. He lives for the thought that there will be an adventure coming up any second.
It might be good to mention Tricia McMillan here also. She is another survivor from earth. She was picked up by Zaphod some time before the earth go destroyed. If I would describe Arthur as a ordinary English man, then I would describe Tricia as a not so ordinary English woman. She is taking the destruction of earth much better than Arthur. This may depend on that she has ...

New trousers for hot weather
steve collins replied to lux's topic in General chatthink you can still get them on german ebay and amazon although i heard were being discontinued
Stihl ms 461 compared to 462
steve collins replied to Svts's topic in ChainsawsIve used both, 461 runs a longer bar better but does have the extra CCs also will be better built than the 462 but heavier. Stihl did go all out on the weight saving in the 462 to make it a lighter saw but with that comes problems, the top cover is single piece and will break from a light strike also the rear handle/trigger area is fixed by a prong mechanism and has come apart in my hands lots which has lead to wear in the throttle assembly as its a series of rods and pivots rather than a cable. 462 is a really good saw, Ive cut hardwood and softwood with for a year now and you just have to be a bit carefull with it whereas the 461 was a solid unit
Straight oak wanted mid Wales
steve collins replied to gdh's topic in Firewood forumI doubt you will find any fencing grade oak in kent/ sussex area as sandwich are hoovering it up at moment as the price is strong. If you do be prepared for a high price!
Dying ash woodland and felling licences
steve collins replied to Big J's topic in Forestry and Woodland managementSo that would ideally be the whole lot going then! I spoke with them today and they said it was more a discussion with input from different contractors experiences dealing with harvesting of dead ash/chalara and butt rot trees
Dying ash woodland and felling licences
steve collins replied to Big J's topic in Forestry and Woodland managementThere is a euroforest meeting/discussion next month regarding dealing with ash dieback trees should be interesting!! I would commission a tree safety survey, then take out all the trees within striking distance of the footpath if that is possible?? seems crazy that you have to have a licence for alive trees with signs of chalara, what did they say about half dead?? im guessing some will have but rot too? so i would go round with a hammer tapping trees whilst wearing a hard hat and marking the hollow ones then taking them out. we had perfectly health trees on one job but lots were hollow so were taken out, public safety would be my main concern!
572 husky or 500i stihl
steve collins replied to arbormonkey's topic in ChainsawsI have a 462 and its coming up to a year in June in the woods, i was asked recently by a dealer if i wanted a 500i? my response was for them to tally up how much the 462 has cost me in spares. I have had 2 chain brake handles, 3 shroud covers, rear handle cover and recently bent the front handle!! If you want a 70+cc saw that will last and is not made from cheap plastic and a front handle made from tin foil( it is ridiculously light/ thin) then try any other brand!!
How much do the FC pay for cutting work?
steve collins replied to Larch Dark's topic in General chatI read somewhere few years back on their own website they pay £150( not sure if vat was included on top) for a experienced hand cutter, so up to medium tree and first aid, Problem is they moan like hell if you charge this even though the website states the above!!!
if it plays up again try the wiring harness from the coil to the carb
extracting 150 cube plus hardwoods
steve collins replied to steve collins's topic in Forestry and Woodland managementthe crane has always been the limiting factor, ive seen many a purpose built skidder haul wood out they just get the cable on, winch it tight then lift the butt plate and drive out which keeps one end out of the mess the same with a grapple skidder. The plus side being there is a winch on site to manipulate trees and pull yourself out the mess when the weather turns, cheers for the input
extracting 150 cube plus hardwoods
steve collins replied to steve collins's topic in Forestry and Woodland managementso your saying a hsm 805 wouldnt have the guts to pull 150 + cube timber? however i look at it its always a 2 machine operation but many wanting the timber carried out these days rather than skidding due to the mess made
extracting 150 cube plus hardwoods
steve collins replied to steve collins's topic in Forestry and Woodland managementthanks for the response, yes basically using crane to lift butt end on to toothed butt plate and a winch cable wrapped round for safe measure then drive out, yes i mean shortwood Ive seen a cat 525 grapple skid out timber but then a forwarder go in to collect the shortwood Ive looked at the specs on the crane types and not sure if some are up to task, just seeing if there is one piece of kit to do the job really
extracting 150 cube plus hardwoods
steve collins posted a topic in Forestry and Woodland managementlooking for opinions on machinery to extract 150 plus cube hardwoods? are the crane type skidders like hsm, noe, wf trac and kotschenruther up to task ?? reason being you can haul out the tops after with a trailer attached or is it excavator and forwarder ? any thoughts welcome
id say its the fuel solinoid playing up from talking to others with same symptoms, not sure of cost to replace though
Im all good mate!!
no i didnt, but the helmet did the trick just a massive bruise on chest/shoulder as it glanced off The protos does have better adjustability than others and also replaceable top if you take a hit
Just got a protos, have used the husky helmets for years then got twatted by some blow back felling and thought i need to invest in my head as much as i do my feet and legs for protection. Good Boots and trousers are £150 + each so why save on protecting your brain as that's the most important part, just my thoughts
I believe there are problems already with the 500i, i keep hearing about the oil cap protector breaking of when snedding, not seen any pictures though!!
was it darren you were speaking to?? saws are going same way as cars, just glad i got hold of some new 3 series husqvarnas as i have a big box of spares so should keep me going till i cant cut no more
not in the same league!! might have something to do with the extra CCs but if it has some "work" i think it could be close
Husky vs Stihl
steve collins replied to dancana's topic in Chainsawsboth are great, one is better made but heavier the other lighter but with fast throttle response but not so good on a 24" bar
Okay, so i got to use a 572 the other day in some scabby horrible beech and oak around 20" which was the ideal test material for me!! it wasnt quite broken in yet but you could feel the power was always there when you needed it compared to the 462 which has a slight lull when introduced to some wood at full revs but carries on through- its kind of hard to explain!! Its well built and the rear handle didn't come apart in my hands!! air filtration is miles better than the stihl, ive owned a 462 for 9 months now and you can notice the weight difference. Overall i think its a more all round saw compared to the 462 which has super fast pickup which is good for snedding but is more suited for softwood.
Wind blown trees
steve collins replied to Ryanfalkland's topic in General chatokay, cutters must have a professional refresher in the last 3 years and also a first aid +f, this is mandatory on all fc sites i guess they have this also multiple windblow. Radio comms essential as im guessing its a remote location you need to think of basic scenarios with one tree or multiple trees like: one blown tree in one direction, windsnapped trees, hung up/part blown trees, trees under sever tension and the dreaded lots of trees all over in a mess. this is all advice i can give as this is all i have encountered
cheers dave, how do you find the air filtration? do you get many fines through in the carb elbow?
Do you think the 572 out cuts your ported 372xpw/375? just asking as i own one too. Yes i saw the re vamped 550 with the hi top type air filter never had any problems with them, i think the new husqvarna 59??? will be out before a re vamped 562 imho

Musing about Mary
I like humans but they are strange. One of the strange things humans do is take pictures of me. The male human does funny things with these photos using things called 'filters'. Sometimes this makes everything look black and white, like this:
I do not mind this, because I think that black and white are the best colours.
But thinking about this I started wondering: what if a very clever puppy grew up in a house where everything was black and white, like in the human photos? This puppy is so clever that it learns all the facts about other colours (for example red, the colour of one of my coats). It comes to know about light, and about how dogs' eyes receive light and how dogs' brains process the information they get from the eyes.
One day this very clever puppy is allowed out of the house. It is a lucky puppy because the first thing it sees is me walking down the street in my nice red coat. Remember that the puppy knows all the facts about the colour red, but this is the first time the puppy has seen the colour. I asked myself, does the puppy learn something new?
I enjoyed thinking about this, although I was annoyed when I learned that a human philosopher had stolen my idea.

The Notting surname finds its earliest origins with the ancient Anglo-Saxon culture of Britain. Their name is derived from Cnute, a popular name in England in the early Middle Ages. It was popular thanks to the influence of Cnut, a Dane, who became King of England in 1016. "There are two Cnuts in Domesday, one in Yorkshire, the other in Derbyshire." [1]
Alternatively, it may be of nickname origin, from the Old English word hnutu, which meant brown, and would have been given to someone with a brown complexion. It may be that this is the origin of the English saying "Brown as a nut," used for someone who has spent a lot of time in the sun.
The surname Notting was first found in Gloucestershire where they held a family seat from early times and their first records appeared on the early census rolls taken by the early Kings of Britain to determine the rate of taxation of their subjects.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Notting research. Another 86 words (6 lines of text) covering the years 1605, 1668, 1640, 1653, 1620, 1623, 1623, 1620, 1620, 1656, 1716, 1660, 1722, 1612, 1550, 1600, 1600, 1987, 1577 and 1576 are included under the topic Early Notting History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
It is only in the last few hundred years that the English language has been standardized. For that reason, early Anglo-Saxon surnames like Notting are characterized by many spelling variations. As the English language changed and incorporated elements of other European languages, even literate people changed the spelling of their names. The variations of the name Notting include: Nutt, Nudd, Nutting, Knutt, Nuttman, Nutter and others.
Distinguished members of the family include John Nutt (1605-1668), an English politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1640 to 1653; and John Nutt ( fl. 1620-1623), English pirate born in Devon who raided the Newfoundland and western England for three years before his capture by Sir John Eliot in 1623. His arrest and conviction caused a scandal in the English court as Nutt had paid Eliot £500 in exchange for a pardon. He was eventually released by the Secretary of State George Calvert. He arrived at Torbay Newfoundland in 1620 aboard the ship Dartmouth in 1620, but soon organized...

Many English families tired of political and religious strife left Britain for the new colonies in North America. Although the trip itself offered no relief - conditions on the ships were extremely cramped, and many travelers arrived diseased, starving, and destitute - these immigrants believed the opportunities that awaited them were worth the risks. Once in the colonies, many of the families did indeed prosper and, in turn, made significant contributions to the culture and economies of the growing colonies. An inquiry into the early roots of North American families has revealed a number of immigrants bearing the name Notting or a variant listed above:

Today's #Tango Thought 060: Perspiration.
Tango can be, and usually is, a sweaty business for a variety of reasons. Not the least of which is the fact that in many places there are noise ordinances that prevent Milonga organizers from opening the windows. Or the venue where the Milonga is held, their air conditioning units are not up to the task, and are easily overwhelmed by more than 50 people in a room for sustained usage.
That said, there are some really easy things that you can do to minimize the amount of perspiration that you generate (as a Lead, or as a Follower):
1.) Dance Less. You know you're in a confined space, and there are lots of people, dance fewer tandas. More to the point, dance one, sit one, alternating every other tanda.
2.) Go outside. Leave the room for about 2 or 3 minutes at a time during your downtime.
3.) Sit Further Away. That's right, when you're in your down time, sit further away from the dance floor.
4.) Change of Shirt/Clothes. Regardless of role, bring a change of clothes. You're going to sweat….that's going to happen….so the best thing that you can do is to bring a change of clothes for yourself for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is it's infinitely drier!
5.) Run Cool Water on the vein side of your wrists. #SocialTango #SocialDance #ArgentineTango #TangoDancing

The administration reverses course and now views a suspect's race as "too general" of a descriptive characteristic to be useful to provide to its community; gender descriptions, however, will remain
The University of Minnesota community was notified Wednesday by President Eric Kaler and Vice President Pamela Wheelock about a new policy that has been implemented regarding the information with which the community will be provided when serious crimes occur on or near campus.
For the past several years "crime alerts" have been issued by the University Police Chief for "crimes that may pose an ongoing threat to the University community" in order to "aid the campus community in its safety."
Crime alerts (which are issued in compliance with the federal Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act) are generally reserved for serious crimes such as homicide, rape, aggravated assault, robbery, burglary and arson.
Previously, crime alerts would include specific information such as the date, time, and location of the crime (including a map), a description of the crime that took place, as well as the characteristics of the suspect.
Such characteristics, if provided by the victim, would usually include the suspect's gender, age, clothing or other identifying features, and race.
The new policy, however, will no longer include racial descriptions in most circumstances.
"Vice President Wheelock is announcing a change that will reduce the use of suspect descriptions in Crime Alerts when there is insufficient detail to reasonably aid in individual identification."
To be clear: Where there is sufficient information to aid our community in identifying a suspect who presents risk, we will continue to include that information. Where the information is too general to advance that goal, we will note that only a limited description of the suspect(s) is available."
This new policy was evident from a University of Minnesota Crime Alert issued this Monday in which a student was a victim of a criminal sexual assault over the weekend:
"The victim describes the suspect as a male, approximately five feet eight inches to five feet eleven inches tall with a medium build. The suspect is between the ages of 25 and 28 years old and spoke with an accent."
The race or a similar physical description of the suspect is not mentioned.
President Kaler and the University have been under pressure since late 2013 to change the policy of using racial descriptions in its crime alerts from members of the African American and African Studies, Black Faculty and Staff Association, Black Graduate and Professional Student Association, Black Men's Forum, Black Student Union and Huntley House for African American Males.
These groups expressed concerns in a letter to the University that "efforts to reduce crime should never be at the expense of our Black men, or any specific group of people likely to be targeted. In addition to causing Black men to feel unsafe and distrusted, racial profiling is proven to inflict negative psychological effects on its victims."
At that time, the University did not opt to change its practice of including race as a suspect identifier, with Vice President Wheelock stating in January 2014:
"We have reviewed what other Big Ten Universities and local colleges and universities include, and our practice of including the race of a suspect when it is available from a victim's description is consistent with their practices."
However, today's statement reverses that policy. President Kaler wrote:
"Use of race in suspect descriptions in our Crime Alerts may unintentionally reinforce racist stereotypes of Black men, and other people of color, as criminals and threats. That in turn can create an oppressive climate for some members of our community, a climate of suspicion and hostility."
The implication of the new policy, as confirmed by the crime alert issued on February 23rd mentioned above, is that the University does not view the gender of the suspect to be "too general" to advance the goal of identifying the suspect (the suspect was described as "male") but that race is.
In her announcement Wheeler stated:
"For some, knowing they have all the information available about a crime, including the complete suspect description, makes them feel better informed and increases how safe they feel. But others — particularly Black men — have shared that suspect descriptions negatively impact their sense of safety. They express concern that Crime Alerts that include race reinforce stereotypes of Black men as threats and create a hostile campus climate.
To address this complex issue, we are changing our approach on the use of suspect descriptions in Crime Alerts. Moving forward, the University will only use a suspect description when there is sufficient detail that would help identify a specific individual or group. This is a change from current practice, which is to include a suspect description regardless of the level of detail provided. The Chief of Police and I will decide whether to include a suspect description in a Crime Alert on a case-by-case basis."
The university did not offer any information in their statement as to whether or not withholding racial descriptions from the University community in its crime alerts would impact apprehending suspects.
