Performance road bike rentals include the Specialized Roubaix Carbon Fiber road bike.
Just behind the 10,000 foot climb on the ride up Haleakala, one of the most popular road bike rides on Maui is the West Maui Loop! With the exception of short sections of riding in central Maui and through Lahaina, the entire bike ride hugs the shoreline around the western section of Maui. Unless you are up for riding a bike to Hana, the West Maui Loop is without a doubt one of the most scenic bike rides on Maui. If you like riding performance road bikes and are looking for a different way to see more of Maui, the West Maui Loop is a great ride for you! Stunning scenery awaits at every turn as you ride this mostly two lane paved road going round West Maui. This often overlooked route along the Northwest coasts of Maui is typically not heavily traveled by visitors. Sort of like riding to Hana without the rain forest. And with Mr. Steepy, even the most seasoned bike rider will find challenges along the way.
What is the distance of the West Maui Loop bike route? Depending on where you start and where you end, the West Maui Loop bike ride is approximately 65 miles (104 km) if you ride the entire loop. If you don’t care about completing the whole loop and want to miss the traffic from Wailuku to West Maui, start the bike ride in Lahaina and arrange for a ride in central Maui. Doing so could cut the ride distance in half.
What is the Elevation Gain on the West Maui Loop bike ride? Almost 5 Thousand feet elevation gain at Mr. Steepy.
Should I ride counterclockwise or clockwise? Both directions have advantages and are fun Maui bike rides. If you ride clockwise early in the morning and begin the ride in Lahaina, you’ll likely experience the least amount of headwinds on the West Maui Loop ride and finish before early afternoon. Riding clockwise also provides the most downhill bike riding, although the uphill sections of Mr. Steepy are also steepest on the clockwise ride. Riding counterclockwise puts you in the ocean side lane of the road.
When is the best time of day to ride the West Maui Loop? With trade winds common in the afternoons on Maui, you’ll want to ride in the morning or at least get past the northern parts early. If are riding clockwise around West Maui, we recommend beginning your ride early in the morning and finishing early afternoon when the sun will be warmer and trades may begin to pick up. If riding counter clockwise on the ocean side of the road around West Maui, the trades will be at your back on the Northernmost part of the loop but you'll probably finish the ride going into wind. If finishing in Kahului or other central parts of Maui, expect strong head winds later in the day.

"Hi Mister Ferrari! I wish to congratulate you for the great implementation of this game." - M.N.
"I just tried out your TurboRisk game, and I must say it is absolutely great. Me and a lot of guys from here (Barquisimeto, Venezuela) are huge fans of this game, in his table traditional version, but to have it in our computers is something else. More than congratulations, I'd have to say: Thanks a lot!!!" - J.D.

There are some people who consider the entire space of equities as akin to gambling. They may have dabbled in it briefly, burnt their fingers in a downturn and exited, having reinforced their initial belief system. Then there are those who understand the difference between long term value investing and the various instruments of trading, such as short term holding, day trading, BTST (buy today sell tomorrow), futures and options etc.
The objective of this article is to try and get into the nuances of these instruments and examine if they are all sheer “gambling”.
To begin with, there is some credence to the belief that the stock market is indeed a form of gambling, especially in certain scenarios. And the reason is that there is only one thing for certain in the stock market.
It is impossible for anyone to perfectly predict the future in the stock market. No expert can genuinely do this at an aggregate or individual stock level, however much information they may have. No one can foresee the occurrence of a black swan event. Hence if someone says a scrip is a “sure bet” in x days, then you know they are winging it a little bit. Most experts who appear on TV screens and coffee room discussions are like soothsayers who can look at the circumstances and make a fair guess at what could happen. But that’s about it.
The thing about probability is that its accuracy vastly improves if you can stretch the period of time over which it operates. This creates the fundamental difference between long term investing and various forms of trading. If you can gather as many complex factors as possible to calculate probability, make a forecast and give it a broad enough swathe of time, then the possibility that the forecasted event will happen within that period becomes fairly high. Only in this scenario, can we seriously start pulling stock investing out of the “gambling” zone.
Conversely, all short term transactions tend to suffer from poor predictability (unless one has insider information). In addition, some short term transactions typically tend to be leveraged (using borrowed money on top of ones own). This means that the ability to hold out is even shorter, bringing it very, very close to gambling.
Does that mean one should avoid all short term instruments like the plague?
Well, not necessarily. My personal belief is that one can ring fence a small corpus and set it aside for trading. This helps satisfy the “greedy gambler” that exists within all of us at some level and prevents the larger portfolio from getting damaged by an uncontrollable urge that takes over at some stage in the market J. To paraphrase Gordon Gecko “Greed is good”… but do make sure it is caged in!
So what are the short term instruments and how do they fare in relative strength to each other? Having accepted that they are all risky propositions, it becomes obvious that one can only manage the degree of risk. This brings us to one of the most important investing insights that is very rarely discussed.
Successful investors always focus on minimizing risk vs possible rewards, not merely managing for maximum gain.
The reason is very simple. Minimizing risk is in our hands to some extent. Driving outcomes is almost completely out of our control. Hence in probability terms, it makes far more sense to minimize risk than try and manage outcomes (or results, profits… whatever we want to call it).
Keeping this in mind, let us look at the various short term options available in the market today. These are my impressions after having dabbled with all of them.
Short term holding or “churning”: A process where one keeps short term price targets, get out when the target is hit and shifts to the next popular stock. Typically within ranges of 1 to 6 months. This tends to be popular with some folks because it gives an illusion of control and keeps you engaged with your portfolio. But there is enough research now to show that constantly buying and selling produces no better returns than a portfolio that is a simple buy and hold over say, 5 or 8 years. In fact it uses up more time, you pay more taxes and very often you make lower returns, because it negates the power of compounding!
Day trading or Intraday: An extreme version of short term, typically where large amounts of borrowed money is used to profit from movements in stock price within one day. If anything can be called sheer gambling, this is it. There is an entire industry built around sharing tips and manipulating share prices. Historical data shows that a vast majority of retail day traders lose money very quickly and in large amounts. It may be possible to make money in day trading by keeping expectations low and strictly managing stop losses. But having done it, I can express my opinion that this is a mugs game. It traps unwary investors who do not have super computers and algorithmic trading engines behind them. The risk profile is way too high. Time commitment is insane as you have to be stuck to the screen the entire day. My suggestion would be to strictly avoid.
Futures & Options: Both futures and options are like “advance payments”. You pay a certain amount as a guarantee towards buying or selling a particular stock at a pre-defined price & quantity on a future date. The difference is that in futures, you have to buy or sell the entire lot when the defined date comes up. While in Options, you could choose to forgo the advance amount and not complete the transaction. These are both slightly better instruments than day trading as you can apply thought to why a scrip should rise or fall and have the time to ride the mkt. Typically the contract period is for a month and you also get the opportunity to sell your deal to someone else in the meantime. Meaning you can continue to trade your f&o commitments throughout the contract period, if you feel it isn’t going your way.
Why does f&o exist? It was typically designed by large funds as a form of insurance. They would take large hedging positions to protect themselves in case something went wrong with their deals. If nothing went wrong, they would only lose the advance, or margin money. But now it has become a trading engine like everything else.
Of the lot, I find options to be most advantageous, because one can manage risk accurately. We know that the most money we can lose is the advance or margin money paid. If the stock does not rise by date of expiry, we walk away and lose the advance. But if it does rise, then upside is potentially unlimited!
In my opinion, this combination of limited downside and unlimited upside makes options an attractive instrument within the risky basket.

"Am I ever glad I don't bruise and break anymore." Takun said laughingly. "By the way what happened back there, I mean it wasn't long ago someone was telling me about restraint......."
"Shove it." Shata said menacingly to his brother, who was not only acting as a guide but an ice pack for his head at the same time. "So where are we going?"
"No Idea, the guy with the lungs is the scientist we've been looking for, and the other guy, well I'll be honest, I have no Idea who he is."
"Good, speaking of my powers, has anything changed yet? I cant tell, still a bit numb."
"Just the rest of the upper half of your back."
Not traveling far the bruised and battered group enter a building that looked as if it were worn down when it was new. As Cove (the bat called himself) opened a hidden door he introduced his companion as Polar. Likewise Takun introduced his brother and himself. Upon entering the new room, lights activated from seemingly no where.
"Fancy...." Polar, Shata, and Takun said simultaneously.
"Huh?" Cove said unphased "Oh yea, the lights, thats nothing really, I think I came up with that back in middle school..... Well anyway, as Polar's problem is going to take sometime to dust off the proper equipment, Lets go ahead and take a look at you two." He said motioning at Takun and Shata.
"I'm just going to hobble over here and take a nap then..." Polar said almost grudgingly.
"Wall Bed, south wall." Cove said in a command like voice. As the words escaped his mouth the wall Polar had been heading to formed a simple bed off the side of it.
"Any other surprises we outta be aware of?" Polar asked, eyes still as large a dinner plates.
"Just keep in mind that the lab is mostly voice commanded nano tech, and there wont be any surprises. Ok Shata Hop up on the table, remove your piece of cloth thats trying to pass its self off as a shirt, and unwrap your swords sheath from around you."
Removing his shirt and sheath, the light danced across Shatas transformed chest and back, almost making it hard to see.
"Now thats some good shiny!" Cove exclaimed, covering his eyes with one claw. "Is there any where I can draw blood?"
"My neck is changed as well doc, but if you have a neddle my arm is still unaffected."
"Regardless of my appearance, I'm not a vampire." Cove said drawing a small amount of silvery blood from shatas are. "What the hell? I know I hit the vein...."
"You did, its been like that for years now."
"Okay.......Moving along then, Takun, could you drip some of your self in to this cup?"
"Sure, just don't drink me!"
"Don't worry, I wont." Cove said laughingly. "Well gentlemen, This wont take long, time enough for you to eat at least."
"We'll wait here, thank you." Shata said hurriedly.
After a few minutes of processing Cove walked back to the brothers with a face full of mixed feelings.
"Takun, your genetic structure is lost, Somehow your basically a puddle with a brain and will, without another living relatives genetic structure theres no hope of rebuilding you." Cove said, noticing a strange glance between the brothers. "Shata, your blood is coated with your ability, your metal strongly resembles an austentic steel, and as such is non magnetic. But strangely it is much stronger then it should be, In a sense it is a completely new metal. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to make the transformation regress."
"Well, thanks for all your help doc, you've given us at least one answer we needed, and through it we may find the other. In the mean time, is there anything we can do to repay you?" Shata said trying not to have anymore questions asked.
"Polar, wake up, I think we may have help with our trip!"
Keep an eye on Polar's blog for the next installment in the line.

A Single Market for Telecoms?
On 11 September, the European Commission tabled a proposal for a new regulation entitled ‘Connected Continent’, which would create a ‘Telecom Single Market’. Operators could expand to offer their services to consumers throughout the EU, but they would be regulated only once, by their home regulator. Net neutrality would be ensured, so that users can access the content of their choice on the Internet, without hindrance. Consumers would get improved contractual conditions, such as 6 month contracts; they would also benefit from yet lower roaming charges. And the continued rise of demand for mobile access would be met with more EU-wide spectrum coordination and measures to spur the growth of Wi-Fi.
Despite these bold aims, the proposal faces significant hurdles, with much of the detail being under intense scrutiny: some operators worry about the way wholesale access requirements would be defined; a few still refuse to abide by net neutrality; many complain about facing yet another regulation on roaming; regulators complain about the lack of consultation by the Commission and about some of the technical and implementation of the proposals; and governments have already expressed concern at what they see as yet another attempt by Brussels to gain more power, notably on spectrum. Plus, politically we face European elections in the spring, and a completely new European Commission by the end of 2014.

Steven W. Seeds has entertained celebrities and dignitaries across the nation with his luscious piano arrangements and incredible technique!
Now you too can enjoy this piano virtuoso's beautiful music for your next engagement!
Steven W. Seeds, born in Vicenza, Italy, is an American pianist. Steven has a lot to be excited about. He just celebrated 36 years with his best friend, his wife Gail. Steven is also celebrating his 45th year in the music industry.
Steven is not only an accomplished pianist, he is a composer and arranger as well. Steven has performed for dignitaries and celebrities across the nation. But at the heart of this pianist is that of a consummate musician, and his music clearly reflects as much.
If you ask Steven what inspires him the most when composing or arranging a new selection, don't be surprised if he tells you the love of his wife. Steven has composed more than just a few songs, such as "You Complete Me" and "Gail's Theme" that were written in tribute to the love for his wife, Gail. Steven met Gail in 1982 and instantly fell in love. They were married in January of 1986. Together they have three children, a grandson and three granddaughters.
Over the years, Steven has been fortunate to become acquainted with a number of the artists who have inspired him so much. Some of these great artists he has met include Dino Kartsonakis, John Tesh, Jim Brickman, Doc Severinsen, Herb Alpert, Chris Botti, David Sanborn, Dave Koz and Kenny G.
In 1996, Steven had the opportunity to become acquainted with the man who was responsible for starting his piano career to begin with, the legendary Floyd Cramer!
In 2009, Steven became acquainted with another pianist who was instrumental in Steven's success, the legendary Roger Williams!

Every six months when the new version of Fedora is released I start to wonder if and when I should update. The release of Fedora 10 a couple of weeks ago started the decision process all over again.
I have been using Fedora 8 and that is what I am using as I write this. I do have a Fedora 9 system that I mentioned in my last post. It is running well and I have settled on Xfce as my desktop on that system. It is much more stable than the test F9 system I had a couple of months ago. It still has a couple of issues I haven’t solved though.
I have been following the forums and there seems to be less complaints with F10 than there was with F9. No setting of new forum records with the number of people on line trying to find answers to their questions this time. Not that it has been completely problem free of course. Several people have issues but nothing like it was six months ago.
There is a theory, or is it an urban legend, that the even numbered Fedoras are the good ones and the odd numbers are well odd and better avoided. Recent history seems to support this with F8 being the best Fedora so far, at least in my opinion. I had problems with F3 and F7, don’t remember trying F5. I didn’t start using Fedora as my main system until F8 but F6 was OK.
I’m not expecting much from KDE4 though as it uses the same version as F9 (4.1.2) although some reports are that it is a little better integrated in F10. Most other changes are evolutionary rather than the major changes that came with F9. Probably explains the smoother update this time.
So will I take the chance and try F10? Well I may set up a test system sometime over the holidays if I get a chance. If it goes well I will update my other systems. There is a temptation to always try latest but it must be balanced against the time taken to get the system set up as I like it and working. Although that is usually only a couple of days.

I found this bear in a relative's attic. No one can tell me anything about the history of this item. The bear is about 28 inches tall and about 13 inches wide at the shoulder. The head is 6 inches wide, the arms are 9 inches long and the legs are 7 inches long. The bear has no eyes, not even stitching. It appears to be dressed in US Navy Dress Blue uniform with aviator wings and USA on the left chest. The blue trousers have a gold or yellow stripe running down the outside seam. The bear appears to be filled with wood shavings or fibers. The tunic has brass buttons with anchors with braided rope. There are no hands nor feet on the bear. The legs are stubs and the hands are covered in a light colored cloth. Maybe a dress glove?
I've looked on the internet and haven't been able to find any item like it. The dress blues are faded and there are a few minor tears in the bear uniform. I'd really like to know more about this bear. I assume that it is fairly old. There are no tags or markings of any kind that I can see. I hope someone can give me some information about this bear.

Parenting is demanding. No matter what age your children are, parenting presents is own set of challenges. When you have babies, you are constantly in a routine of feeds and nappy changes, when they begin school you need to be there to support their learning at home as well as day to day caring, and when they are teenagers, you have hormones to deal with! Often, being a parent means that you put your needs last, but it is important to look after yourself too. Here’s why.
Parenting takes energy, and when you are running around after your kids, it can leave you feeling tired. Being a tired parent is hard, so look after yourself by giving your body what it needs. That means eating a healthy diet, getting exercise, and restful sleep. That might sound difficult, but if you make it a priority, you will look and feel better, and have more energy to be the parent you want to be. When you look after your health, you are showing your children that it is important, helping them to grow a healthy mind-set that will stay with them into adulthood.
When you feel stressed, you take it out on those around you, even if you don’t realise you are doing it. Have you ever been short with your child because you are feeling anxious or irritable? When we are on edge, we are not the greatest role models for our kids, so make time for yourself to decompress. It might mean going for a run after work, so you get rid of any pent up emotions before spending time with your children, perhaps you would like to take a yoga class each week, or maybe you need to boost your confidence by sorting a problem that prevents you from feeling confident. If, for example you suffer from hair loss, you can find companies that specialise in hair transplant solutions such as Gethair.co.uk. Whatever it is, doing a little something for yourself helps to take care of your stress levels, so you can be your best self for your children.
If you stop caring about yourself, it affects your ability to care for children. You are a role model that shows them how to act and what sort of person to be in the world. They learn from you, so if you show them that self-care is important, they will grow up to be people who look after themselves too. That might be one of the most important things that you do.

The Holy Grail is a mythical object or symbol associated with Jesus Christ. In earliest Grail literature, it was described as the dish, plate, or cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper, and was said to possess miraculous powers. The legend may combine Christian lore with a Celtic myth of a cauldron endowed with special powers.
The quest for the Holy Grail makes up an important segment of the Arthurian cycle, appearing first in works by Chrétien de Troyes. The early Grail romances centered on Percival and were woven into the more general Arthurian fabric, in which other knights such as Sir Galahad played a prominent role. It was connected with Joseph of Arimathea in the writing of Robert de Boron in the late-twelfth century, in which Joseph receives the Grail from an apparition of Jesus and sends it to Great Britain. Building upon this theme, later writers recounted how Joseph used the Grail to catch Christ's blood, and still later theorists have suggested that the Grail is actually a symbol for Jesus own blood-line, with Mary Magdalene as the initial "vessel" symbolized by the Grail.
The development of the Grail legend has been traced in detail by cultural historians. It is a legend which first came together in the form of written romances, deriving perhaps from some pre-Christian folklore, in the later twelfth and early thirteenth centuries.
The Grail was considered a bowl or dish when first described by Chrétien de Troyes. Other authors presented it differently. The word graal, as it is earliest spelled, appears to be an Old French adaptation of the Latin gradalis, meaning a dish brought to the table in different stages of a meal. Late medieval writers spoke of the sangréal or "Holy Grail," related to an Old French, word meaning "royal blood."
The Grail plays various roles in the stories concerning it, but in most versions of the legend the hero must prove himself worthy to be in its presence. In the early tales, Percival's immaturity prevents him from fulfilling his destiny when he first encounters the Grail, and he must grow spiritually and mentally before he can locate it again. In later tellings the Grail is a symbol of God's grace, available to all but only fully realized by those who prepare themselves spiritually, like the saintly Galahad.
There are two veins of thought concerning the Grail's origin. The first holds that it derived from early Celtic myth and folklore. On the other hand, some scholars believe the Grail began as a purely Christian symbol. For example, Joseph Goering of the University of Toronto has identified sources for Grail imagery in twelfth-century wall paintings from churches in the Catalan Pyrenees, which present unique iconic images of the Virgin Mary holding a bowl that radiates tongues of fire.
Another recent theory holds that the earliest stories that cast the Grail in a Christian light were meant to promote the Roman Catholic sacrament of the Holy Communion. This theory has some basis in the fact that the Grail legends are a phenomenon of the Western church. Most scholars today accept that both Christian and Celtic traditions contributed to the legend's development. The general view is that the central theme of the Grail is Christian, even when not explicitly religious, but that much of the setting and imagery of the early romances is drawn from Celtic material.
The Grail is first featured in Perceval, le Conte du Graal (The Story of the Grail) by Chrétien de Troyes, who claims he was working from a source book given to him by his patron, Count Philip of Flanders. In this incomplete poem, dated sometime between 1180 and 1191, the object has not yet acquired the implications of holiness it would have in later works. While dining in the magical abode of the Fisher King, Perceval witnesses a wondrous procession in which youths carry magnificent objects from one chamber to another, passing before him at each course of the meal. First comes a young man carrying a bleeding lance, then two boys carrying candelabras. Finally, a beautiful young girl emerges bearing an elaborately decorated graal.
Chrétien refers to his object not as la graal, a common noun. For Chrétien the grail was a wide, somewhat deep dish or bowl, often used for fish dishes such as pike, salmon, or lamprey, but here containing a single communion wafer which provided sustenance for the Fish King’s crippled father. Perceval, who had been warned against talking too much, remains silent through all of this, and wakes up the next morning alone. He later learns that if he had asked the appropriate questions about what he saw, he would have healed his maimed host, much to his honor. Chrétien may actually have intended the eucharist wafer to be the significant part of the story, and the Grail to be a mere prop.
Though Chrétien’s account is the earliest and most influential of all Grail texts, it was in the work of Robert de Boron that the Grail became the "Holy Grail" and assumed the form most familiar to modern readers. In his verse romance Joseph d’Arimathie, composed between 1191 and 1202, Robert tells the story of Joseph of Arimathea acquiring the chalice of the Last Supper to collect Christ’s blood upon His removal from the cross. Joseph is thrown in prison where Christ visits him and explains the mysteries of the blessed cup. Upon his release Joseph gathers his in-laws and other followers and travels to the West, and founds a dynasty of Grail keepers that eventually includes Perceval.
After this point, Grail literature divides into two classes. The first concerns King Arthur’s knights visiting the Grail castle or questing after the Grail itself. The second concerns the Grail’s history in the time of Joseph of Arimathea. Though all these works have their roots in Chrétien, several contain pieces of tradition not found in Chrétien which are possibly derived from earlier sources.
Four continuations of Chrétien’s poem by authors of differing vision, designed to bring the story to a close.
The German Parzival by Wolfram von Eschenbach, which adapted the holiness theme of Robert de Boron’s Grail into the framework of Chrétien’s story.
The Didot Perceval, named after the manuscript’s former owner.
The Welsh romance Peredur, generally included in the Mabinogion, indirectly founded on Chrétien's poem, but including very striking differences from it, preserving elements of pre-Christian traditions.
The German Diu Crône (The Crown), in which Gawain, rather than Perceval, achieves the Grail.
Belief in the Grail and interest in its potential whereabouts has never ceased. Ownership has been attributed to various groups (including the Knights Templar, probably because they were at the peak of their influence around the time that Grail stories started circulating in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries).
Saint Mary of Valencia Cathedral in Spain contains an artifact known as the Holy Chalice.
There are cups claimed to be the Grail in several churches, for instance the Saint Mary of Valencia Cathedral, which contains an artifact, the Holy Chalice, supposedly taken by Saint Peter to Rome in the first century, and then to Huesca in Spain by Saint Lawrence in the third century. Archaeologists say the artifact is a first-century Middle Eastern stone vessel, possibly from Antioch, Syria (now Turkey); its history can be traced to the eleventh century, and it presently rests atop an ornate stem and base, made in the Medieval era of alabaster, gold, and gemstones. It was the official papal chalice for many popes, and has been used by many others, most recently by Pope Benedict XVI, on July 9, 2006. The emerald chalice at Genoa, which was obtained during the Crusades at Caesarea Maritima at great cost, has been less championed as the Holy Grail since an accident on the road, while it was being returned from Paris after the fall of Napoleon, revealed that the emerald was green glass.
In Wolfram von Eschenbach's telling, the Grail was kept safe at the castle of Munsalvaesche (mons salvationis), entrusted to Titurel, the first Grail King. Some, not least the monks of Montserrat, have identified the castle with the real sanctuary of Montserrat in Catalonia, Spain. Other stories claim that the Grail is buried beneath Rosslyn Chapel or lies deep in the spring at Glastonbury Tor. Still other stories claim that a secret line of hereditary protectors keep the Grail, or that it was hidden by the Templars in Oak Island, Nova Scotia's famous "Money Pit," while local folklore in Accokeek, Maryland says that it was brought to the town by a closeted priest aboard Captain John Smith's ship.
Robert de Boron portrayed it as the vessel of the Last Supper, and Peredur had no Grail per se, presenting the hero instead with a platter containing his kinsman's bloody, severed head. In Parzival, Wolfram von Eschenbach, claimed the Grail was a stone that fell from Heaven, and had been the sanctuary of the Neutral Angels who took neither side during Lucifer's rebellion. The authors of the Vulgate Cycle used the Grail as a symbol of divine grace. Here, Galahad, the illegitimate son of Lancelot and Elaine, is destined to achieve the Grail, his spiritual purity making him a greater warrior than even his illustrious father. The Galahad tradition was popularized in the fifteenth century by Sir Thomas Malory in Le Morte d'Arthur, and remains popular today.
Da Vinci's depiction of John, the Beloved Disciple, is thought by some to actually be Mary Magdalene, Jesus' secret wife and the true "vessel" symbolized by the Grail.
For the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail—who assert that their research reveals that Jesus may not have died on the cross but lived to wed Mary Magdalene and father children whose Merovingian lineage continues today—the Grail is actually symbolic of Magdalene herself as the receptacle of Jesus' bloodline.
According to the controversial Italian traditionalist philosopher Julius Evola (1898-1974), the Holy Grail was an initiatory "Hyperborean mystery" and also "a symbolic expression of hope and of the will of specific ruling classes in the Middle Ages, who wanted to reorganize and reunite the entire Western world as it was at that time into a Holy Empire based on a transcendental, spiritual basis."
Graham Hancock asserts in The Sign and the Seal that the Grail story is a coded description of the stone tablets stored in the Ark of the Covenant. In their book Swords at Sunset, Canadian authors Michael Bradley and Joelle Lauriol connect the Grail to the legend that Henry Sinclair came to the Americas (specifically Lake Memphremagog in Vermont 100 years before Columbus. In an argument drawing more closely on earlier "pro-Celtic" research, English author John Grigsby attempts to connect themes of the Grail to Indo-European myths, including Osiris, Adonis, and the Greek Dionysos in his book Warriors of the Wasteland.
The story of the Grail and of the quest to find it became increasingly popular in the nineteenth century, referred to in literature such as Alfred Tennyson's Arthurian cycle the Idylls of the King. The high seriousness of the subject was also epitomized in Dante Gabriel Rossetti's painting, in which a woman modeled by Jane Morris holds the Grail with one hand, while adopting a gesture of blessing with the other. Other artists, including George Frederic Watts and William Dyce also portrayed grail subjects.
The Grail later turned up in movies; it debuted in a silent Parsifal. In The Light of Faith (1922), Lon Chaney attempted to steal it, for the finest of reasons. Lancelot du Lac (1974) is Robert Bresson's gritty retelling. In vivid contrast, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) deflated all pseudo-Arthurian posturings. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and The Fisher King place the quest in modern settings; one a modern-day treasure hunt, the other robustly self-parodying.
The Grail has been used as a theme in fantasy and science fiction; Michael Moorcock's fantasy novel The War Hound and the World's Pain depicts a supernatural Grail quest set in the era of the Thirty Years' War, and science fiction has taken the Quest into interstellar space, figuratively in Samuel R. Delany's 1968 novel Nova, and literally on the television shows Babylon 5 and Stargate SG-1. The grail features heavily in the novels of Peter David's Knight trilogy, which depict King Arthur reappearing in modern-day New York City. The Grail is also central in many modern Arthurian works, including Charles Williams collections of poems about Taliessin, and in feminist author Rosalind Miles' Child of the Holy Grail.
These works of non-fiction have inspired a number of works of modern fiction. The best known is Dan Brown's bestselling novel The Da Vinci Code, which, like Holy Blood, Holy Grail, is based on the idea that the real Grail is not a cup but the womb and later the earthly remains of Mary Magdalene, though which Jesus' descendants live on. In Brown's novel, it is hinted that the Grail was long buried beneath Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland, but that in recent decades its guardians had it relocated to a secret chamber embedded in the floor beneath the Inverted Pyramid near the Louvre Museum.

Whether you’re the consumer or producer of an API, you’ve no doubt seen that good error handling can make debugging easier. And you may have noticed that error handling works best when everyone speaks the same language and has the same expectations. But what makes for good error handling? And how can we implement it and ensure consistency across our application?
Today, let’s look at the problem of error handling from two angles: the what and the how. And since tonight is pizza night, I’m going to go with a pizza theme for our examples later on.
First, let’s consider the what.
What Are Good API Errors?
Easy-to-use applications take many things into account. One of those is providing helpful and descriptive errors to their consumers. And a great place to start involves looking at standards. Since much of the web uses JSON and REST, we’ll focus on using what’s outlined for the JSON API. Even more specifically, we’re going to look at typical error codes that we see in most web API’s—4xx and 5xx errors.
The most basic division of errors identifies whether the problem is a result of a client or server error.
4xx-level errors are client errors. These are errors that the client can solve on their own by changing their request. And then 5xx errors are server errors, which indicate to the client that it’s probably not something they did wrong and that they should either retry or contact support.
This is a basic division. Unfortunately, sometimes applications get it wrong. Whether it’s speeding through to a deadline or not having a good error handling template to follow, mistakes do happen. So what you’ll want to do (and we’ll cover this later) is make sure that your application is set up with global exception handling and filtering to provide your consumers with appropriate codes.
One of the first errors most of us encounter is the infamous HTTP 404 status code. It’s a clear indicator to the consumer that whatever they’re looking for is not there. But you may have also seen the vast list of error codes that you’re not as familiar with.
How do you know which to use? And how specific do you have to get?
My recommendation would be to not attempt to use all the error codes available. There are basic ones that most developers know and can recognize. And others that are more obscure and that will lead to confusion.
So what error codes should we use? Well, I advise that you get familiar with at least some of them. The ones listed below are the ones I would expect to occasionally see when I call an API. Therefore I would want an application developer to generate them under the right conditions.
400 Bad Request This is the generic error that tells us someone created a bad request. Perhaps required fields are missing or header values are not filled in.
401 Unauthorized Indicates that authentication has failed. This could be because of an expired, missing, or invalid token.
403 Forbidden Indicates that authorization failed. Alternatively, you can also use 404 so that the consumer doesn’t know that the resource even exists.
404 Not Found The requested resource is not found. Companies like GitHub also use 404 if you try to access a resource that you do not have the authorization to access.
500 Internal Server Error When something goes wrong on the server, the consumer can’t do anything about it. Just let them know there’s a problem and that they should try again later or contact support.
Now you may have noticed that I didn’t include codes like 405-Method Not Allowed or 503-Service Unavailable. These are common codes, but I would not expect an application developer to generate them. They’re either handled by frameworks, servers, or network components already.
Many developers get a bit overzealous when they first learn about all the HTTP status codes available. They want to use the absolute most correct code for every situation. However, this results in unnecessary complexity in their application. It also causes consuming applications to modify their logic as well to account for more codes that could be returned.
For example, if a request header field is too large, then yes, sure, you could send a 431-Request Header Fields Too Large as the response. But then you’re forcing the consuming application’s developer to look up 431 to find out what it means and write logic to expect that response. Instead, send a 400-Bad Request and provide a helpful description that’s easy to read and understand.
Additionally, there are codes that are custom to particular uses. Let’s consider 498-Token Expired and 499-Invalid Token. When you’re first setting up your authentication, it may be tempting to use these. However, upon further inspection, you may notice that both of these are specifically for use with ArcGIS Server—whatever that may be. Additionally, 499 can also be used by nginx for indicating that a client has closed the connection.
So in this case, send back a 401-Unauthorized and provide a good message that gives enough information for the client to fix the problem.
Additionally, giving your consumers a 507-Insufficient Storage or 508-Loop Detected could give bad guys more information on how to bring your system down. Don’t make your consumers troubleshoot for you. Just say, Hey, sorry—Internal Server Error. Try again and if you still have problems, here’s an easy way to reach out and get help.
They use the language “MAY” for a reason. It’s up to you. At this point, you should consider your customers and what makes sense for them. Does it make sense to first send a “Pizza size is required” error and then wait until the next submission to tell them that, oh, by the way, “Crust type is required,” too?
In this case, the answer is obvious. But there may be times when you’ll have to consider the options. For example, if errors only occur after a number of computationally expensive steps, it might make sense to return errors one at a time. In either case, always consider the consumer and the logic that will be implemented on their side. Do they want to know sooner or later that you don’t deliver to their address?
So what’s an example of errors that you would give one at a time? If you receive a request that results in a 401 because the token is not good, there’s no reason to continue on and also let them know that their request was also bad for other reasons. They’re not authorized, so they don’t need any additional information that could clue them in on your internal system structure.
Pretty simple: always choose the most relevant generalized error over the more accurate (but too technical) specific error.
ID: Something that will let your consumers contact you. Then you can reference your logs and metrics to find out what went wrong.
CODE: Even though the HTTP code comes back on the header, it’s good practice to add it to the body as well. This lets others see it and easily map it to a model.
STATUS: This is the text of what your status code means. Don’t make your consumers look it up.
TITLE: Let the consumer know what caused the client error here, but don’t share too much info about internal server errors.
LINK: This one is optional, but super helpful. If you can link to a help page or readme document that provides more info, you will be my hero forever. But not many people do this, so don’t feel too bad if you’re as lazy as the rest of us.
DETAIL: Additional info, like how to actually fix the problem (in case you weren’t awesome enough to provide a link).
In addition to differentiating between client and server errors, as well as the different status codes, we can also classify errors as either general or domain-specific. This helps in deciding if we should write custom handling and messaging around it, or if it’s a well-known error condition.
General errors include things like using the wrong HTTP verb, failing authentication, or failing authorization. It’s typically good to stop processing quickly when these happen and get a response out to consumers. General errors are typically not domain-specific.
These are more specific to your domain. As an example, consider if we had a DeliveryUnavailableException or an OrderAlreadyExistsException. There might be additional things you’d want to do when these types of errors are encountered.
How Should We Implement Error Handling?
Okay, so now we know what errors will provide solid information for our consumers. Next, how do we actually go about it? There are a few different things we can do, like creating filters and error handlers. Let’s look at each of these and see how it’s done.
You don’t want to repeat yourself. And you want to make sure that all your methods handle errors the same way. That way, there’s one less thing to worry about when you create yet another endpoint. A good option for this involves writing validation and exception filters that catch errors and treat them in a consistent manner.
First, let’s look at errors related to validation. In this case, instead of checking each field in our controller or service, we can add basic validation directly to our model, as shown below.
And then we can validate all our models in our ValidationActionFilter.
But what should we do with other types of exceptions? We can use a filter for those, as well.
First, let’s create our exception class.
And now let’s create our filter that will process our exceptions.
And add it to our GlobalConfiguration.
But that’s not the only way to handle exceptions. We can also use a GlobalErrorHandler.
First off, why would we want to use a GlobalErrorHandler over an ExceptionFilterAttribute? Well, there are some exceptions that our filters will not catch.
And since we want to be covered in these scenarios as well, let’s add our GlobalExceptionHandler.
Content = "Pizza Down! We have an Error! Please call the parlor to complete your order."
Now, what do we need to do in order for that filter to catch the exception? Add it to our GlobalConfiguration.
Now there’s just one more thing we’ll want to do.
With the GlobalExceptionHanlder, there’s still a chance that an exception will not be caught here. However, we’re guaranteed to be able to log it. And we’re able to set up as many exception loggers as we need. I’m just going to use log4net’s logger in this example.
And again, make sure to add it to your configuration.
One additional step you should take—use the StackifyAppender. This way, Retrace is set up to automatically collect all your logging messages.
And that’s it for today. We went over the basics of what errors provide to our consumers, as well as how to implement errors in our ASP.NET application. Now you’re ready to provide the right error and handle exceptions consistently throughout your application.
As your next step, take a look at your current projects and error handling. Verify that you’re providing the right web API error in the right context, and consider ways that you can make it easier for your consumers to fix problems on their own.

So while I struggle on with writing my own book, here’s a woman whose books I admire hugely! Brené Brown is a researcher-storyteller who has spent the past ten years studying vulnerability, courage, authenticity and shame. It was the publication of her latest book, The Gifts of Imperfection, and the Perfect Protest on her blog, that inspired my recent post about my *ahem* glorious imperfection. She’s inspiring, intelligent, real and doing such important work, and I’m thrilled to have her company in this space today!

BB: The journey that led me to become a researcher was anything but a straight and narrow path, which, ironically, is probably why and how I ended up studying human behavior and emotion for a living. I was a college drop-in and drop-out for a number of years. During my “off semesters,” I waited tables and tended bar, hitchhiked through Europe, partied too much, and played a lot of tennis.
I found the social work profession in my late twenties and knew it was home. I did a two-year stint in junior colleges to raise my GPA enough to get into a big university with a social work program. It was in those junior college classes that I feel in love with teaching and writing.
Why write about imperfection, and why now?
I really started with an interest in studying the anatomy of connection. How do people cultivate genuine connection? About two months into that research I ran into this thing that unraveled connection; it tore relationships apart and fueled isolation. That thing was shame. I thought I’d merely “look into” the shame topic for a few months. Six years later, I finally got my head around shame and how it works.
In your most recent post you said: ‘Being our best selves is about cultivating the courage to be vulnerable, authentic, and imperfect.’ How do you cultivate YOUR courage, Brené?
As you know, courage is a huge theme in my life. It seems that I’m either praying for some, feeling grateful for having found a little bit, appreciating it in other people, or studying it.
The root of the word courage is cor—the Latin word for heart. In one of its earliest forms, the word courage literally had a very different definition than it does today. Courage originally meant “To speak one’s mind by telling all one’s heart.” Over time, this definition has actually changed, and today, courage is synonymous with being heroic or performing brave deeds.
Heroics and bravery are important, but I think we’ve lost touch with the idea that speaking honestly and openly about who we and about our experiences (good and bad) is the ultimate act of courage. Heroics is often about putting your life on the line. Courage is about putting your vulnerability on the line. In today’s world, that’s pretty extraordinary.
For me, practicing courage means telling my story with all of my heart. It means being honest about who I am, what I believe, and how I feel. It doesn’t come easy for me – I have a tendency to self-protect – but it really is about practicing authenticity and letting myself be seen.
You’re a professor, a researcher, a writer, a mother, a wife. How do you dance with all these roles in a typical day?
I have an amazing husband, a strong support network of friends and family, and two awesome kids. I try to set and hold a lot of boundaries. I love my online life and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share my work with the public, but I am an intensely private person and a homebody. I drive carpool, volunteer at the school store, sit in the front yard and talk to neighbors, do art with my kids, and sneak in as many date nights with Steve as possible. I schedule my downtime and family time just like I schedule my work events – they are nonnegotiable.
I’m a deeply spiritual person, so my greatest personal inspiration comes from my faith. I access my faith mostly through nature, prayer, and music. Music plays a huge role in my life – I love everything, but mostly rock, 70s music, and Texas folk music. I’m on a Rolling Stones bender right now.
I’m also inspired by people who share their gifts with the world – folks who are teaching and leading and holding space for others. I have a new “classes” tab on my blog. These teachers and their classes inspire me.
Of course, there are several books that I would say literally changed my life.
I want to learn more about this AND I want to live it.
I’m working a couple of things right now. A book titled, The Gifts Of Imperfect Parenting, and a memoir titled, Wholehearted: Spiritual Adventures In Falling Apart, Growing Up, And Finding Joy.
Dang! I’ve been trying to think of my list and I just can’t make myself do it. I could choose Martin Luther King and Eleanor Roosevelt, and other people I admire, but the truth is that I really don’t want to go to a dinner party. I’d like to cook something and sit down with Steve and the kids, then maybe piddle around the house while Ellen and Charlie play outside.
What a lovely, inspiring conversation. Thanks so much for introducing us to Brene, and thanks to both of you for the generous giveaway.
At the moment I’m reading Brené’s book on Shame and I absolutely love her work! I look forward to one time be able to read the book on the gift of imperfection as well!
I was honoured to take part in Brene’s “I am enough” and thought this a wonderful thing to do.
I love Brene’s philosophy and was so pleased to see her interview. Thank you Susannah!
I work with women and men who have anorexia. They are experts on perfectionism! Brene’s new book ‘The Gifts of Imperfection” would be so helpful in my work and personal life.
Thank-you Susannah for posting this interview and introducing Brené. This post has come along at just the right time for me. I’m off to check out her website.
Brené’s new book is incredibly inspiring – thanks Susannah for recommending her work and thanks Brené for your wonderful writing! Looking forward to reading your book too!
Yes, yes yes .. speechless but yes.
I love the tenderness with which Brene shares herself and her story while she gives hope and strength to others with her words.
I was there listening at her first webinar yesterday (Sydney time). I need to immerse myself in her words and this message.
I’d love a copy of her book.
Thank you so much for sharing this interview. I love everything she has to say, especially about having the courage to own our story. What a worthy goal to aspire to!
I am so taken by these themes and by Brene. I would love to explore this further and delve into imperfection and living wholeheartedly.
Great interview Susannah. I adore Brene’s work!
You are both so inspiring. I’d love to get a copy of Dr. Brown’s new book!
I am so in love with Brene’s Perfect Protest & cannot wait to share her new book for all my imperfectly wonderful girlfriends!
I’d love to win this book; Brene has many good things to say. Thanks for the opportunity.
Such a fantastic convo. I really enjoyed the authenticity illustration.
I am so moved by this interview and I am eager to go read everything written by Brene. As a life-long perfectionist (and mother of one) everything she’s said resonates with me. I strive daily to live an honest and upfront life and to turn off the judgmental voice in my head. Boundaries! Oy!! My boundaries…I plan to read everything she’s written and pass it all on to my 16 year old son. He is such a precious person and I want him to get this message before he’s an adult! Thank you!
I am scared shitless of being authentic in real life. I am so afraid of being seen and then being attacked/hurt. At the same time I long for nothing more then being who I am and being seen the way I truly deeply am and being loved and appreciated for it. I’m so used to being the freak, being different, misunderstood and lonely, it’s damn hard breaking out of my shell.
And yes, I’d love to win a copy :) and I love that there are people like you (both Susannah and Brené and many more bloggers and people in the real world) who show me that it is possible, that it is sometimes hard and scary and that it is totally worth it.
Very interesting interview Susannah! And I’d love to read the book!
What a gift! I discovered Brené through various blogs of the wonderful people I met at Squam and absolutely loved your Glorious Imperfection post…I’m a rather lazy leg-shaver as well. I look forward to reading her books!
Sounds like a book worth reading. I’ll definitely be looking into it.
I think she is great, love her work.
Her book sounds very interesting! Thanks for sharing her interview with us.
I think i need to have this book no matter what but how nice it would be if it were gifted to me. I hope that book on imperfect parenting gets out in the world soon…what a relief it would be for us mommies/aunties/grandmas if we could shed this feeling that we need to do it perfectly.
Everything said here so resonates. Thank you so much for this perfect conversation.
I participated in Brene’s webinar the other eventing and it was one of the most valuable times I have spent on line in the past year.
Her perspective is lucid and her communication is genuine and heartfelt.
I am eager to own her books for myself and explore her ideas further.
I have heard so much about this author; she has such interesting work. Great post!
I have been reading her blog for the past year and I enjoy her! I am learning to embrace ALL of me since her “The Perfect Protest” campaign. I actually thought being perfect in other people’s eyes mattered. Well – WAKE UP CALL- it doesn’t! and I’m glad.
Both Brene and Susannah have helped me really KNOW that we are all struggling and rejoicing with all of the same stuff.
loved this interview. sounds like she wrote a book i NEED to read. and your imperfect post had me laughing – i LOVE your honesty.
Really interesting blog, thank you both for sharing. I am a perfectionist and so nodded a fair bit, reading it.
Would love to win a copy of Brené’s book.
Love the messages share! I have her book on my wish list and would love a copy!
To think I once thought that my perfectionism was a good thing as I worked hard to get everything just right. Now I see it differently and realise how much trying to be perfect has held me back. I would love a copy of this book.
Last year — on this very site! — I won a copy of Brené’s video, The Hustle for Worthiness. Awesome good stuff.
So I will disqualify myself from the drawing this time around. I just wanted to say thanks for bringing her back!
Hrm…sounds like this book is something I should definitely read. Thank you for introducing me to such an inspiration!
love this post! I’m perusing her site right now.
I am 1/2 way through her latest book because I think you mentioned it here. She’s brilliant and I love people who tell on themselves! Thanks for bringing her to your readers. I’m going to check out her blog.
Wow! Looks like I need to read this book. A friend keeps telling me to pick it up and here I am reading this interview and thinking she’s right! Thanks for the insight!
This was a wonderful interview…I’ve been reading Brene’s work recently and it has been changing my life…thank yoU!
Wow, what an inspiring and beautiful person! Thank you so much for introducing Brene Brown to me. I’m so looking forward to reading more of her work.
Susannah, thanks for sharing more of Brene with us. I love her definition of courage…letting it soak in to my consciousness, knowing it will change the way I approach today.
I’d love a copy of her book to read and pass on. Thank you both for this offer!
Thank you for this inspiring topic! I know so many people (men and women) – including me – who want to do everything to 100 % or don’t do it. But this is a wrong attitude.
Fabulous, hope to win the book.
oh my – this was a truly inspiring post. I’m so glad my friend recommended it to me. If I can’t win a copy, I will definitely buy one. ;) I must check out her list of books.
Wow – thanks for this interview! I especially love Brene’s dinner party answer.
wow – that was really great. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the super giveaway!
I am currently going through a HUGE shift, and with so much self-doubt ingrained, Brene’s words are a life-saving tool I’m using to beat the dear and make my dreams happen. Thank you so much for this snippet of her life, helping me remember that even the researchers aren’t perfect, so I really don’t need to be.
ooh, pick me please! have been wanting to order this book and there’s no room in the budget at the moment.
Thank you for the interview Susannah and Brené. Brené’s Perfect protest has changed my life, since then I’m really happy and I enjoy not to be perfect.
I love Brené’s book and idea that she wrote this book. :-) She is a very inspirating person.
This book should be published also in my country, in Hungary. A lot of people should read it and they could live a better and happier life!
Would love to read her book!!!
Thank you for sharing this powerful woman’s words here. I am especially in need of her message right now.
I think perfection is highly overrated and very much enjoyed the interview. Thank you Susannah for introducing me to Brené. Have a beautiful day.
Wow. What a great interview. Oddly life has a way of connecting us when we least expect it. My counselor just recommended I look into Brene’s work.
Very inspiring. Something tells me that I should definitely read Brene’s books.
I’ve spent most of my life as a perfectionist who is always concerned with what others expect of me and think about me. It’s exhausting. I would love to be able to embrace my imperfection!
I am still trying to reconcile how amazing real and accessible this woman is, and that she works in an academic setting in a university. Is this proof that there are really are no fences? That authenticity transcends old tired paradigms and gives new life to what already exists?! Thank you for the hope and for the work that both of you are doing!
Love her work – thank you for the introduction.
This anti-perfectionism movement feels so important and really moves me. I need to read Brene’s book, it sounds like it would address a lot of the issues I am trying to deal with right now. It would be lovely to win it, but I will read it anyway. I was worried it would be academic in tone, but have taken a look on amazon and it seems like it is written in an easy to read, extremely thought provoking way.
Great interview. I love her blog.
What an inspiring Interview – thanks for the introduction. Will definitely go and visit her site too now.
fantastic interview … I have found Brené’s work hugely inspiring and helpful as I work through my own struggles as a recovering Perfectionist and try to equipment my daughter with good shame resilience and healthy self esteem. It amazes me to see how ingrained some of these negative habits of comparing, judging and labeling ourselves seem to be.
I would absolutely totally love to win a copy. of Brene’s book. This is a thing I need to work through here in my life. Gah!
Thanks for the interview. A really good read.
Perfectionism is a struggle for me all of the time!! I would dearly love to read this book but winning it would be even better. What’s not to love about winning a book!!!
oh i so needed to read this today. i really truly did. thx for this wonderful interview susannah and sharing her amazing work!!
I am looking forward to getting this book! This interview was great! Much love.
Thanks so much for sharing the interview. I found Brene’s blog awhile back and have been wanting to read more of her work. Great stuff!
Together, Women are an amazing transformational force. Love and honesty in all its shapes and forms is actually, surprislingly bareable when the shame is freed. thank you so much for the tools to look into my self, to explore me, and grow into loving me and expanding my world.
I follow Brene on her website also and love her and her words!
I look forward to reading your book and hers!

not simply just open up the site so nasty that could damage the morale of the younger generation (even older). Perpetrators are not responsible for very able and very easy to simultaneously be the culprit, with upload or upload photos or video nasty over the internet. In fact, it is becoming hot news are commonly heard, "hey, there's a new video nasty ni" or things like that. Also when some time ago, Indonesia's top artists who tripped video nasty case is to give a broad impact on society.

The wink girl and the internet sensation of 2018, Priya Prakash Varrier is coming up with her Hindi debut film Sridevi Bungalow. The actress will be seen playing the lead role in the movie. Recently, the makers of the movie released the first teaser of the movie. It seems like the director Prasanth Mampully has made an effort to recreate the life events of the legendary actress Sridevi.
In the teaser, Priya is seen playing the role of a successful actress named Sridevi. Even after the name and fame, she is living a lonely life. Moving towards the end of the teaser, it shows a scene where the actress drowns in the bathtub with her legs up in the air. Without any doubt, the scene appears to be a cheap representation of the tragic death of actress Sridevi.
He further said, “I cannot talk about the film. That is something you will know when the film is released. Sridevi is a character, an actress, in my film. The character’s name is Sridevi. Anybody can be called Sridevi. The story can have certain incidents which happened in Sridevi’s life. This is a suspense thriller. I can’t talk more about the film.” The shooting of the movie is still going on in London.
On a relatable note, Priya was recently seen on the special screening of Uri: The Surgical Strike where the actress was seen spending quality time with the actor of the movie, Vicky Kaushal and Simmba actor Ranveer Singh.
Please share your views with us in the comment’s section below and stay tuned for more entertainment related updates.

In a refreshing move supporting the critical role of legal, regulated hunting over the emotion exploited by animal rights extremist groups, California Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed a bill late Monday that would have banned the importation and possession of certain African wildlife species statewide. Not only would Senate Bill 1487 have prevented California residents from bringing home their legally-hunted African game animals, but it would have set a dangerous precedent for extremist whose goal is not merely to shut down hunting in Africa but to ban it in every state, one small step at a time.
"Governor Brown stated he vetoed the bill because it is unenforceable," said Chris W. Cox, Executive Director of the National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action. "Not only is it unenforceable, but this bill would have contributed to the demise of the very species it sought to protect. Lawful hunting funds counter-poaching efforts, feeds local communities and gives communities incentives to keep wildlife thriving. If we want to see wildlife in Africa outside of game parks, legal hunting must be not only allowed, but encouraged as a fundamental part of conservation."
Gov. Brown’s veto was an important derailment for California’s anti-hunting legislators who continue to push for more restrictions against law abiding sportsmen. This is one more reason NRA-ILA is so important to the collective hunting community's efforts to combat anti-hunting attacks. While it fights for hunters on the national and international levels, it also monitors proposed legislation against hunters and hunting at every state capitol through its NRA-ILA State and Local Affairs Division and through its office in Sacramento where a full-time staff of legislative advocates specifically focuses on the Golden State, so often at the epicenter of the anti-gun, anti-hunting movement.
For background on the bill, as NRAHLF.org reported in April, S.B. 1487 initially addressed the state’s public utilities code, but anti-hunting legislators amended it to create the Iconic African Species Protection Act. They went about picking and choosing African game species on the basis of popularity—not biological necessity—such as elephants, leopards and a handful of species not even listed on the Endangered Species Act’s (ESA) list of endangered or threatened species or on CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora). Why? Simply because the legislators knew that passage of such a bill would keep California hunters from hunting in Africa.
So on Apr. 19, NRA-ILA’s California State Director Daniel Reid sent a letter to the bill’s author opposing the bill. Reid wrote that the importation of legally-hunted wildlife from other countries was already regulated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the ESA of 1973 and CITIES. CITES, by the way, ensures that international trade in wild animals and plants does not threaten their continued survival. As an active participant to CITES, the United States enforces the treaty by requiring permits for wildlife species entering the country.
Gov. Brown’s veto comes at a time when his state’s political environment is more and more hostile toward hunters and gun owners in general. That makes his decision to protect the future of hunters and hunting that much more important as NRA-ILA, the NRA Hunters’ Leadership Forum and like-minded hunter-backed organizations unite to protect hunting’s future.
Preventing the passage of laws that are detrimental to hunting and wildlife conservation is the goal of every like-minded group across America that is concerned with protecting wildlife species into the future. This is why the NRA, SCI and other partner organizations work so closely with the Department of the Interior’s (DOI) U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. This also is why NRA-ILA Director of Hunting Policy Erica Rhoad recently was selected by DOI Secretary Ryan Zinke to serve on his International Wildlife and Conservation Council. The council, which met again just last week, advises Secretary Zinke on international conservation issues. It is tasked with helping to increase public awareness domestically regarding conservation, wildlife law enforcement and the tremendous economic benefits resulting from U.S. sportsmen traveling abroad to hunt.

Yeah, you girl. You find creative ways to entertain the children while you’re trying to still get the work and meetings done during the 17th snow day of the season.
You’ve decided that the 8 year old won’t suffer long term effects of playing the wii for days at a time and that pizza you had delivered three days ago before snowmegeddon round 2 arrived? Well, that was just genius.
Yeah girl, you totally got this.

You were the one who gave this to me. We are free! Watch your mouth! Chip said that she loved Ken and always would love him. I don't, either. I work from Monday through Saturday. John took advantage of Bill's weakness. Stevan has done a great job. More time will be needed. Murthy wadded up the piece of paper.
They want to cut down the forest to build a hotel and a shopping mall. How would you like us to proceed? I can't help but feel that I've been set up. I saw one once. It looks like a bar. How soon can you have the report finished? Can I exchange yen for dollars here? Rex and Kiki bought an Oriental rug. But you don't have to stay to the end. I apologized to my boss.
That result was predictable. The men are wearing short sleeve shirts. Hang on a minute. I'll call Jimmy. What's on your mind? I miss my children. Fish and meat are both nourishing, but the latter is more expensive than the former. You may not like what you uncover. Doug did what he had to. I thought for a moment Lenora was really going to tell Starbuck about what happened. We deserve to have some fun.
Did he say anything else about me? Felix just wants to be with Anatoly. What do you say to playing cards? He looked quite handsome in his suit and tie. Thanks for asking, she is fine. You keep on making the same mistake time after time. I'll accompany you to the airport. Like many other students, Nou rides a bicycle to school. I'm sure we can trust him. He followed the lead of our teacher.
He suffered internal injuries in the car accident. We are thinking of moving back home. What flower is blue? I sure could use a cold beer. I can't believe I did this. Don't you believe her? We have more important things to do. Don't forget to take along the camera. Charlie isn't always late, but he often is. You're unapproachable.
They worked hard to aid the victims of the flood. Long embassy and long travel lead to unfaithfulness. It was just a joke. Supposedly, everyone is connected to everyone else by, at most, six degrees of separation. Please don't be afraid of me. He has written several criticisms of that play. Who wrote these letters? Please dont ask foolish questions it is ridiculous. That isn't likely to happen in my lifetime. Japan has to reconstruct its economy.
I puzzled over the difficult math problem. We need a bath. She's a control freak. No took the whole day off. Rajeev used to be a race car driver. I don't think this is a good time to talk to Blayne. Please introduce me to the attractive girl who is talking with Tomas. When goods are scarce, sellers have the advantage. Everyone gathered around me. I have several good friends.
Because of the level of pollution which was said before, you can help the local environment by avoiding petrol-based means of transport, so you can both spend less money and reduce the level of pollution. I knew one. Are there any Japanese restaurants near here? Does Jong have feelings for me? If a man is promoted ahead of a woman - it's called favoritism. If she gets promoted, in front of a man, it's called equality. Can you please go away now? We're investigating a homicide. He's my partner. Get her some food. There's only one cookie left.
Ellen doesn't ever come here by himself. I didn't catch as many fish as I had expected. Can you make a tasty salad? Pravin is just the man I've been looking for. Harv isn't surprised. Patrick told me that he doesn't like to study in the morning. Tell him it's important. I'm not changing my vote. I've been going over Rathnakumar's chart. All of us plan to be there.
Last summer we went to Hokkaido. He was guarded in his remarks. I never imagined meeting you here. Go straight across the square. As a consequence, additional tests must be carried out to ensure complete security. A friend of mine is looking for someone who speaks French. He has achieved very good results. Do you know her well? Now we have enough people to play mahjong. In doing that I was gaining nothing and was bringing myself into danger.

The phased.RangeEstimator System object™ estimates the ranges of targets. Input to the estimator consists of a range-response or range-Doppler response data cube, and detection locations from a detector. When information about clusters of detections is available, the ranges are computed using cluster information. Clustering associates multiple detections into one extended detection.
Define and set up a range estimator using the Construction procedure that follows.
Call the step method to compute the range, using the properties you specify for the phased.RangeEstimator System object.
estimator = phased.RangeEstimator creates a range estimator System object, estimator.
estimator = phased.RangeEstimator(Name,Value) creates a System object, estimator, with each specified property Name set to the specified Value. You can specify additional name and value pair arguments in any order as (Name1,Value1,...,NameN,ValueN).
Source of the number of range estimates to report, specified as 'Auto' or 'Property'.
If you set this property to 'Auto', the number of reported estimates is determined from the number of columns in the detidx input to the step method. If cluster IDs are provided, the number of estimates is determined from the number of unique cluster IDs in the clusterids input to the step method.
The maximum number of range estimates to report, specified as a positive integer. The number of requested estimates can be greater than the number of columns in the detidx argument or the number of unique IDs in the clusterids argument of the step method. In that case, the remainder is filled with NaN.
Option to accept cluster IDs as an input argument to the step method, specified as false or true. Setting this property to true enables the clusterids input argument.
Option to enable output of range estimate variances, specified as false or true. Range variances are returned by the rngvar output argument of the step method.
Root-mean-square range resolution of the detection, specified as a positive scalar. The value of the RMSResolution must have the same units as the rangegrid input argument of the step method.
To enable this property, set the value of the VarianceOutputPort property to true.
Source of noise power values, specified as 'Property' or 'Input port'. Noise power is used to compute range estimation variance and SNR. If you set this property to 'Property', the value of the NoisePower property represents the noise power at the detection locations. If you set this property to 'Input port', you can specify noise power using the noisepower input argument, of the step method.
Constant noise power value over the range-response or range-Doppler response data cube, specified as a positive real scalar. Noise power units are linear. The same noise power value is applied to all detections.
To enable this property, set the value of the VarianceOutputPort property to true and set NoisePowerSource to 'Property'.
One input to the range estimator is a response data cube. To create a response data cube, use the phased.RangeDopplerResponse or phased.RangeResponse System objects. The first dimension of the cube represents the range. Only the first dimension is used to estimate range. All other dimensions are ignored. To interpret the detection location, you must pass in the rnggrid vector corresponding to the range values along this dimension. See Radar Data Cube Concept.
Input a range-processed response data cube obtained from either the phased.RangeResponse or phased.RangeDopplerResponse System object. The first dimension of the cube represents the fast-time or equivalent range of the returned signal samples. Only this dimension is used to estimate detection range. All others are ignored.
Input a matrix of detection indices that specify the location of detections in the data cube. Each column denotes a separate detection. The row entries designate indices into the data cube. You can obtain detection indices as an output of the phased.CFARDetector or phased.CFARDetector2D detectors. To return these indices, set the OutputFormat property of either CFAR detector to 'Detection index'.
When ClusterInputPort is false, the object computes the range for each detection. The algorithm finds the response values at the detection location and at two adjacent indices in the cube along the range dimension. Then, the algorithm fits a quadratic curve to the magnitudes of the range response at these three locations and finds the location of the peak. When detections occur at the first or last sample in the range dimension, the range response is estimated from a two-point centroid. The estimation is at the location of the detection index and at the sample adjacent to the detection index.
When ClusterInputPort is true, the object computes range for each cluster. The algorithm finds the indices of the largest response value in the cluster and fits a quadratic formula to that detection in the same way as for individual detections.
Convert the fractional index values of the fitted peak locations to range. To convert the indices, choose appropriate units for the rnggrid input argument of the step method. You can use values for rnggrid obtained from either the phased.RangeResponse or phased.RangeDopplerResponse System objects.
The object computes the estimated range variance using the Ziv-Zakai bound.

Wired is carrying a short story about personal genome sequencing that has a description and photo of the LavaAmp.
The caption describes the LavaAmp as "an experimental DNA copying machine." I don't want to nitpick -- much -- but the instrument is certainly past being experimental. There is data published using a very similar machine, the founders of LavaAmp have produced data using the instrument shown in the photo, and we will be shipping the v0.2 model to several Beta testers (okay, Alpha testers) as soon as the new heaters come back from the fab. The project is moving pretty fast.
On the later point, the whole "Bits and Atoms" conversation really does deserve more attention. As discussed in my previous post on the subject, it may be that much of the outsourced fabrication capacity available via the web is only available because of the present economic downturn. But it is still available, and I have to say I have never had it easier in terms of shooting a design out the door and getting hardware (and plasticware) back according to my specs -- in just a few days, too. And at really reasonable prices.
Even if the economy picks up and larger manufacturers sop up some of the extra capacity, my guess is that we are seeing the demonstration of a new market for rapid prototypes and small lots. I doubt very much that people like me -- who are getting used to using the "send" button for emailed designs as a metaphorical "print" button for the atoms specified by those designs -- will want to give up this new capability. And if demand for this service is maintained, or more likely increases, as the economy revives then all the more cability will be supplied via my atom-printing button.
I am still lusting after a desktop CNC mill, though.

I met this author and his wife at the Gathering of Authors in Texarkana not long ago. He’s not really a fiction writer; he’s an expert in human resources, leadership, management–things like that. And I have to admit, you can tell 50 Days of Hay wasn’t written by a fiction writer. Greg defies basic paragraph and dialogue structure, frequently ignores grammar–things like verb tense agreement and proper pronoun usage–and just plain ol’ boggles the mind with the way he writes.
But let me tell ya: This is one of the best desperately-needs-to-be-edited books I’ve read in a long time. And, seeing as how I’m delving more into country/ranch writing, it’s right up my alley.
Sixteen-year-old Baxter has become too much for his mom to handle, with his drugs and alcohol and careless, dangerous living, so Mom decides to send him to the farm for the summer. He goes–doesn’t want to, but he does–and he’s hell-bent on making everyone miserable.
But it’s amazing what wise, loving grandparents and fifty days of hay can do to an angry young man.
I highly recommend this story. Just be prepared to do a lot of overlooking.

As a new year develops, trends in industrial automation will continue: the evolving workforce, globalization, the use of information to develop insight into plant operation, concerns about security.
So as we enter 2017, we’ve compiled a list of 10 tips to help you improve safety and productivity.
1. Understand Your Safety Maturity Level: Assess your own safety maturity and how you compare to others. There is a significant difference from the top to the bottom of the spectrum. Best-in-class manufacturers – the top 20 percent – achieve 5 to 7 percent higher OEE, 2 to 4 percent less unscheduled downtime and less than half the injury rate of average performers. These manufacturers share common attributes in three key areas: Culture (behaviors), compliance (procedures), and capital (technology use). These interdependent elements each show four levels of performance based on the focus of the company: minimizing investment, attaining compliance, cost avoidance, or operational excellence. Understanding your performance level and areas for improvement is critical to optimizing performance. Read more about safety maturity and measurement.
2. Develop a Strong Safety Culture: Safety culture – the accepted behavioral norms of your organization – ultimately determines the safety of your workplace. Procedures and technology are critical as well, but if workers violate policy (often with management’s tacit approval), or override technology, worker safety and productivity will be compromised. This can have many negative effects on your business. A weak safety culture can undermine investments in procedures and technology. Read more about safety culture development.
3. Collaborate between EHS, Engineering, Operations: This is a key attribute with clear correlation to attaining both safety and productivity, which is everyone’s responsibility. While EHS is the discipline most directly responsible for worker safety, they only directly control the least effective safety methods. Engineering, with responsibility for machinery design and guarding controls more effective methods, and shares responsibility for productivity with Operations. Collaboration between these departments is critical to help maintain compliance, safety, and productivity. Read more about safety maturity and how each of these departments should function.
4. Perform Job-Based Safety Assessments Early in the Design Process: Most companies perform a risk assessment at some point. The questions are: Does the assessment consider everyone who will operate, maintain and otherwise come into contact with the machine e.g. did the assessment leverage a cross-functional team? Does the assessment take place at its operating location, or in isolation at the machine builder, or both? When does the assessment take place – early in the design process when risks can be designed out? Or after the machine is designed and ready to ship? It’s vital to perform a risk assessment early in the design process and again after it’s in place at its operating location to help verify compliance, safety, and productivity. Studies show that 60-70% of safety incidents occur outside of normal operating mode. For more on the topic, please see this whitepaper (PDF).
5. Design Ergonomic Machinery: Your most experienced workers are at high risk for musculoskeletal and repetitive stress injuries, which can often be chronic or career ending. In addition, today’s diverse workforce means machines should be built for a range of workers – including ambidextrous features, reducing repetitive motion, lifting and awkward placement of the body. Read more about adapting to an evolving workforce (PDF).
6. Use Alternative Protective Measures to Improve Productivity: Safety doesn’t have to come at the expense of productivity. Contemporary machinery design allows for minor service exceptions to lock-out/tag-out, where procedures are routine, repetitive and integral to the use of the equipment. Workers cannot be placed at higher risk, but there are alternative protective measures that can improve productivity by reducing downtime while still maintaining regulatory compliance. Read more about using alternative protective measures (PDF).
7. Use Established Safety Tools to Reduce Development Time and Help Confirm Compliance: Designing safety systems can be challenging and time consuming. Today, safety design tools are available that can streamline development and help confirm compliance. For example, Safety Automation Builder software can help you manage the safety lifecycle and design your safety system. Safety function documents are available to help you implement machinery safety functions and include safety performance calculations, wiring, programming, verification and validation. Read more about available safety tools.
8. Develop a Connected Enterprise: Harnessing the power of safety and operational data can substantially improve safety compliance and performance. The Connected Enterprise empowers safety professionals with real-time understanding of worker behaviors, machinery compliance, causes of safety shutdowns or stoppages, and safety anomalies and trends. It can also help improve your ability to hire, train, and retain employees. Read more about safety in The Connected Enterprise (PDF).
9. Understand the Relationship between Safety and Security: As industrial operations become more connected, organizations are making significant security investments to help protect their intellectual property, their operations and their brand. However, the inherent safety implications of security risks are too often overlooked. By integrating safety and security programs and following key steps, manufacturers and industrial operators can assess, manage and mitigate the safety implications of security risks. Read more about the relationship between safety and security (PDF).
10. Work with Dependable Allies: Identify system integrators and machine builders with expertise in current safety standards, a proven track record in building safety systems, and knowledge of productivity-enhancing safety system design technologies. Rockwell Automation alliances include safety Recognized System Integrators and Solution Partners that have met stringent requirements including a rigorous, months-long assessment and education process to become members of our PartnerNetwork. Read more on the Rockwell Automation Safety Integrator program.

Conducted conversations with students in Hindi to foster language fluency.
Being mother tongue, have been speaking it since birth and converse generally at home, among colleagues and for general interaction in Hindi most of the time.
This is my native language.i have volunteered a lot of NGO's for teaching hindi.
it's a lovely historical language which could be learnt with fun and at ease.
This is my native language.
I have full command over Hindi and it would be really good to make kids learn Hindi. It is fun and they are much more dedicated.
i have an experience of teaching hindi as a subject for the past ten years.
i have an experience of two years of working in an export house,so it would be easy for me to teach you the business aspects and convertation essentials.
Literature is a very interesting subject,and i would love to pass on my skills of writing and reading to the student.

IME started its operation by making small induction motor fan systems and universal motors for hair dryers and small appliances. Later came permanent magnet motors, vacuum cleaner motors (whose introduction dates back to the mid -90’s) and induction motors (at the turn of the century for boiler burner systems applications).
The first projects involving brushless motor with electronic commutation started to be developed in 2005, and large-scale production quantities began in 2013.
The wide range of available products proves IME’s continuous strive towards new products and technologies and a distinguished feature throughout the company’s history. Numerous resources and investments have always been allocated to Research and Development making IME one of the most skilled and qualified companies in the field of electrical motors. The integration of new engineering talent is an ongoing continuous process and a clear indication of IME’s approach to future markets.
Today IME is undoubtedly the market player that can offer the widest variety of electric motors both in terms of technology and power level (from very low Watts to 50 KiloWatts).
The common trait to all these products is their being “special”. IME exclusively produces customized electric motors, that are designed to meet the specific needs of each individual customer.
The IME Quality System has been certified since the early nineties (currently ISO 9001:2015): the quality of the production process, the product and the service provided to customers has always been considered the priority objective in the business management – and will never cease to be so.
The attention to the safety of its employees and respect for the environment are values which IME has complied with since its foundation, succeeding over the years in continuously improving the sustainability of the business.
After a primary focus on the domestic market during the early years of operation, IME has gradually grown its export market and become increasingly international. up to the point where the export sales have now greatly exceeded the domestic sales. IME is now a true global presence in terms of sales and supply chain.
The generational change in leadership within the same family guarantees the respect of the same ethical and entrepreneurial principles constantly pursued since IME’s creation.
IME was founded in Manerbio in 1972 and it has been since then owned by one single family that, despite the considerable efforts required to conduct its agricultural and animal farming activities, has always decided to manage it directly. Over the years, the bond has strengthened more and more, making IME a true family affection.
The early years production consisted of small fans with induction motors as well as universal motors for hair-dryers and small domestic appliances, essentially built for the Italian market.
In the late seventies IME exceeds the threshold of 5 million motors manufactured annually.
The growth becomes constant, the IME brand begins to be recognized and appreciated abroad, and new products follow at a fast pace.
In 1993 the first important “leap” in technology: the first permanent magnet commutator motors were added to universal motors, giving IME the opportunity to quickly establish itself as a leader in the market of coffee grinder motors. In the following years, this technology is successfully used by IME in numerous other fields of application, especially in automatic gate openers.
In 1996, IME made significant investments in manufacturing engineering for vacuum cleaner motor production, a market thought to be ideal for the continuous growth of the company.
The choice proved to be spot-on and IME quickly became to be widely recognized as one of the main international market players, thanks to the reliability and quality of its vacuum units.
The available manufacturing footprint was not sufficient for this new industrial development, therefore IME decided to build a brand-new plant on an area of about 10,000 square meters in the nearby town of Pontevico.
From the early 1990s onwards, IME’s export market became increasingly significant and its customers’ portfolio began to include the most prestigious brands in the world for household appliances, vacuum cleaners, power nozzles and power tools.
In 2001, there was a second significant technological “leap”, with the start of production of asynchronous motors.
The occasion was prompted by a major user of asynchronous electric motors for burners (about 400,000 per year), who decided to outsource its domestic production. IME was among the candidates, won against the competition and with a huge investment, completely took over the production lines and tooling.
An additional plant was needed which was quickly identified and purchased, next to the historic plant of Manerbio.
In less than one year since the decision, the whole operation was completed with the first production of asynchronous motors for the new important customer.
In 2004 IME, tireless in its striving for the development of new technologies, invested in the first production line of permanent magnet brushless motors.
Following the same footsteps of permanent magnet motors, the initial range of asynchronous motors was also expanded and diversified over the years to meet requests from the most various fields of applications: from gardening to ventilation, from pumps to professional tools, from food processors to hoists, and so on. High interest is shown for the specialty asynchronous motors because of the advanced technical solutions implemented. Development started in 2007 for niche markets such as artificial snow systems, high temperature ventilation, oxygenation and purification of industrial and civil liquid plants and auxiliary applications in the railway sector.
In the early years, the market was limited to very few customers and to a single application, but the strategic value of such an initiative was clear: to build up and run a suitable technical and production organization and recruit the necessary resources in terms of electronic control, in view of the massive launch of production of brushless motors for various fields of application, which started in autumn 2013.
In 2016 IME obtains 7 international patents for the innovative solutions implemented in its growing range of brushless motors with internal and external rotor.
Further patent requests have been filed and are currently under review.

Can Nutrition Majors Study Abroad?
Yes, they definitely can. Unfortunately, I often hear nutrition students telling me they’ve heard they can’t study abroad. There are many opportunities through Penn State and other schools for study abroad experiences. It is very easy to do something over the summer, or even spring break, and many students take full semesters away. It does take planning however. Each option in Nutritional Sciences has courses that are part of a sequence. In order to study abroad you need to plan ahead to make sure all the necessary courses can be completed in the correct order. But, with planning this is can be accomplished.
Friday, October 16, from 3-5 PM there will be a Health and Human Development sponsored Study Abroad Fair. Consider attending to learn more about your options. You can also look back at past articles in this blog for nutrition specific study abroad opportunities.
The Global Ambassadors will be giving a “Study Abroad 101” presentation at 3:00 p.m. which provides a lot of useful information for any student interested in any study abroad program (not just in HHD).
Education Abroad advisors from the Office of Global Programs will be on hand to answer students’ questions.
Meet with your advisor to discuss your options!
Are you interested in or required to find full-time positions, internships, summer jobs, and volunteering positions that impact the well-being and development of others?
If so, then Career Services invites them to the C.A.R.E. Fair! This fair is an event designed to bring organizations to campus seeking students for opportunities outside of the corporate, government and industry settings. Organizations will be seeking students in health and human services, park and recreation management, hospitality, public service, non-profit and volunteering realms.

Uprooted Palestinian: "What will happen in Aleppo? Probably what happened in Damascus – the rebels will lose!"
Probably what happened in Damascus – the rebels will lose. ...But the rebels look to be doing well on TV?
That’s because they are winning the propaganda war better than the real war. ...But why is the Syrian army shelling its own people?
Hard to tell. But for sure this is not Egypt – there are no Tahrir Squares or vast protests against the regime.There is no discernible sign in any of the big cities – Homs, Aleppo and Damascus for example,that the people even wish to rise up against the regime ..."

Catalyst Biosciences Announces Updated Positive Interim Data at the 2018 Hemophilia Drug Development Summit | Catalyst Biosciences, Inc.
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Aug. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Catalyst Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:CBIO), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel medicines to address hematology indications, today announced updated positive interim data from its Phase 2/3 study of subcutaneous (SQ) prophylactic Factor VIIa (FVIIa) variant marzeptacog alfa (activated) (MarzAA), being developed for the treatment of hemophilia A or B with inhibitors. The data will be delivered in an oral presentation today at the 2018 Hemophilia Drug Development Summit being held on August 15-16 in Boston.
Dr. Howard Levy, chief medical officer of Catalyst, will present the updated interim results from the MarzAA Phase 2/3 trial in which five of up to 12 subjects have been enrolled. Since initial interim data was announced at the ISTH conference in July 2018, in which one subject with a historic annualized bleed rate (ABR) of 26.7 had completed the trial with no bleeds after 50 days of treatment with 60 µg/kg MarzAA, two additional subjects have now completed the trial. One of these subjects, who has a historic ABR of 16.6, had no bleeds during treatment with 30 µg/kg MarzAA for 50 days. No ADAs have been detected to date, with safety data for the final 10 days of dosing still being collected for this subject. The second subject, who has a historic ABR of 15.9, had no bleeds during treatment with 30 µg/kg MarzAA for 44 days. No ADAs have been detected to date.
A copy of the presentation materials can be accessed on the Events and Presentations section of the Catalyst website once the presentation concludes.
Marzeptacog alfa (activated) (MarzAA) is a potent, subcutaneous Factor VIIa therapy being developed for prophylaxis in hemophilia A or B with inhibitors. The Phase 2/3 open-label, subcutaneous efficacy trial in individuals with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors will evaluate the ability of MarzAA to eliminate, or minimize, spontaneous bleeding episodes. The primary endpoint is a reduction in annualized bleed rate that will be compared with each individual’s recorded historical annualized bleed rate as the control. The trial will enroll up to 12 individuals with hemophilia and an inhibitor across approximately ten clinical trial sites globally. MarzAA has been granted orphan drug designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for routine prophylaxis to prevent bleeding episodes in individuals with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors.
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include statements about the potential for marzeptacog alfa (activated) (MarzAA) to provide prophylaxis therapy in patients with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors, Catalyst’s plans to complete a Phase 2/3 open label trial of this product candidate, and Catalyst’s plans to continue development of this and other product candidates. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions, expectations and projections disclosed in the forward-looking statements. Various important factors could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that the Company makes, including, but not limited to, the risk that trials and studies may be delayed and may not have satisfactory outcomes, that additional human trials will not replicate the results from earlier trials, including interim data, that potential adverse effects may arise from the testing or use of MarzAA or other Catalyst product candidates, including the generation of antibodies, the risk that costs required to develop or manufacture the Company’s products will be higher than anticipated, competition and other factors that affect our ability to establish collaborations on commercially reasonable terms and other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 2, 2018, and with other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Tong, Xiyan (2017) Social media and distant others : the mediation of distant suffering among Chinese youth. PhD thesis, University of Warwick.
Embargoed item. Restricted access to Repository staff only until 7 November 2019. Contact author directly, specifying your specific needs. - Requires a PDF viewer.
With the popularity of the internet and mobile intelligent terminals, more and more people are becoming social media users across the globe. China is no exception in this case, Chinese youth in particular. Social media could turn distant others into our virtual neighbours. These mediated interactions are carried out in mediapolis: a moral space where the audiences connect with the otherwise invisible others during the process of mediation. After being integrated into users’ daily lives, social media could create new ways of living and new kinds of social relationships, among which is the users’ acknowledgement of distant suffering.
Media witnessing and media remembering are two media practices employed to explore how audiences talk about distant suffering and position themselves with regard to it in this thesis. Through focus group discussions among Chinese university students, the empirical data showed how Chinese young people witness and remember distant suffering through social media.
Young social media users position themselves as witnesses of news of distant suffering in a detached way: there is a rationalised detachment from the suffering events; they showed no scepticism towards online distant suffering reports and their hospitality towards the distant sufferer is conditional on the immediacy between them.
The investigation of media remembering demonstrates the construction of a moral hierarchy in the way in which young social media users remember distant suffering: some incidents of suffering are banal, some are iconic, and some others are meaningful in their memories.
Young social media users’ actions towards distant suffering including reposting, discussion and donation. While for their inactions, they have varied justifications, which involve their mistrust about online information and charitable organisations, their powerlessness as students, and compassion fatigue as a result of seeing too many similar events, and the existence of the national disaster-relief mechanism. Their opinions towards whether to accept the concept of cosmopolitanism are various. There are several new features in the mediation of distant suffering through social media compared with traditional mass media.
This study contributes to the growing research on the mediation of distant suffering. It extends the range of studies on the mediation of distant suffering from the West to the East, it broadens the research area from mass communication media to social media, and it answers the empirical question about the ways of the social media users’ engagement with distant suffering.

Serial the podcast: The most addictive true crime story ever?
The most popular show in the world right now isn't on TV.
What is this “Serial” and why has my perfectly rational friend or acquaintance lost his or her mind over the whole thing?
Serial is the most riveting true crime show on the planet, you need to get into it immediately. The twist? It’s NOT. ON. TELEVISION.
Serial is a podcast, so you can download it onto your phone and listen to it goddamn everywhere (which is the beauty of podcasts). Once you’ve listened to a few episodes and you’re hooked, you will live your life Thursday to Thursday, counting down the hours till you can listen to the next episode.
It’s hosted and produced by journalist Sarah Koenig (who I want to be when I grow up), a producer on the podcast This American Life. She’s been investigating a real murder case for a full year, and her total obsession with it is contagious. Every episode, she presents more evidence and invites you to try and work out whether this dude called Adnan is guilty of killing his ex-girlfriend.
Wait, so it’s just audio? Like the olden days, when we huddled around the wireless?
Well, yeah. Except podcasts are portable, so you can listen to them on the treadmill or in the car or while you’re baking cupcakes. Podcasts are having a renaissance right now, listening to the radio is cool again, and you need to get on board.
More than 1.2 million people listen to each episode of Serial, and it’s growing.
Yeah, alright, fine, I’m interested. So tell me about this Adnan guy?
OK, so Sarah Koenig received an email some time ago, urging her to look into the case of Adnan Syed — a young man who had been convicted of murdering a beautiful, smart, sweet girl called Hae Min Lee in 1999. Hae Min Lee dated Adnan Syed in high school, and her body was found in a nearby marsh after she was declared missing.
The entire case against Adnan Syed hinges on the testimony of his “friend” – a guy called Jay. Jay says Adnan wanted to kill Hae Lee, and that he picked him up after the murder. Adnan has been languishing in Maryland Correctional Facility ever since, where he is serving out a life sentence. If he’s guilty, he deserves to be there. Obviously.
But what if he’s not? What if Adnan Syed is innocent? What if this guy Jay is making the whole thing up? What if the case against him isn’t strong enough to convict him? What if he’s just lost decades of his life for something he didn’t do?
Those are the possibilities that haunt Sarah Koenig — and the possibilities that will make you desperate to tune in every week for more.
Koenig is now filing episodes of Serial in real time, as she keeps investigating the case. All we can do is tune in every week to find out. Oh god oh god oh god, the suspense is almost too much.
Where do you get this podcast?
The Serial website. The Serial Facebook page. Serial on iTunes.
Will you be here when we need to debrief on everything and swap theories?
YES. Please. Let’s debrief. It’s all I want to talk about, and will welcome any and all discussion. Hit me up in the comments here, visit me on Facebook with your thoughts, tweet me your theories.
Did you know we have our very own? It’s called Mamamia OutLoud. Every week, some of your favourite Mamamia writers — Mia Freedman, Kate Leaver, Rosie Waterland, Jamila Rizvi, Holly Wainwright — sit on the floor at Mamamia HQ and chat about everything from the cultural significance of Kim Kardashian’s bottom and Renee Zellweger’s face, to what it’s like falling in love with a friend and whether we deserve better from our politicians than what Jacqui Lambie is giving us.

The Central Region Championships, one of the most prestigious and major events in the K.U.G.B. calendar, was held at the Queens Park Leisure Centre in Chesterfield, Derbyshire on the 5th March 2011.
An increase in participation was again seen this year. This was due, in the main, from the large number of entries received from several clubs: South Nottingham, Tamworth, Cambridge University and Lichfield.
The exceptional standard of the competitors saw many outstanding matches in both kata and kumite.
Sensei Frank Brennan 7th Dan, Vice Chairman of the K.U.G.B and Chief Referee for the finals attended the championship for the 31st year.
Sensei Rob Welsh 6th Dan, Championship Co-ordinator and Central Region Officer.
Sensei Richard Poole 6th Dan, Welsh Regional Officer, President of the W.S.K.A and the E.S.K.A.
Sensei Nick Heald 6th Dan, Senior Instructor at the Leeds Karate Academy.
Sensei Karen Burnham 4th Dan (Tamworth K.C.) for 30 yrs membership with the K.U.G.B.
The highlight of the evenings finals was the "blue ribbon" event, the Mens Senior Team Kumite, and was one of the closest contested finals seen for many years.
The match between South Notts and Cambridge University ended with one win each.
However, South Notts took the title as they had scored with the only full Ippon.
The South Notts Mens Senior Kumite Team with coach Sensei Rob Manning 4th Dan.
The Central Region Committee would like to thank the Referee's, Judges, the Doctors, the staff of Queen's Park Leisure Centre, and also the numerous helpers and supporters who made this championship such a successful event.

Looking for a fun breakfast ideas for kids? Make rainbow pancakes for kids! Your favorite pancake batter is died a rainbow of colors for a fun and colorful meal.
Pancakes are a special treat around here. We make red velvet pancakes, Elvis pancakes, gingerbread pancakes, pancake pops – you name it, we've probably tried it. So these rainbow pancakes fit right in with this crowd.
So why not rainbow pancakes? Use your favorite pancake recipe or a mix and some food coloring to make a truly colorful breakfast!
This breakfast recipe is so easy to make. Start by making your favorite pancake batter. It can be from a box, a homemade mix or from scratch. This recipe was made with a box mix.
Next, Divide the batter in to 6 separate bowls. Make sure you have someone around to do the dishes!
Add a different color of food coloring to each bowl – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet will get you a true rainbow. I find that gel food coloring gives the most vibrant colors in food. Switch things up by making neon or pastel pancakes!
Makes sure to use separate spoons to mix each bowl so the colors don't get mixed up.
Cooke the pancakes as directed in the recipe or on the box of the mix. To keep from browning, you can cook on a lower temperature or reduce the sugar in the recipe since sugar promotes browning.
Each bowl will most likely make one pancake depending on your recipe. You'll end up with one rainbow stack. If you need more, just repeat the process or make a double batch of batter and make 2 pancakes of each color.
Serve with your favorite pancake topping! We like maple syrup, but buttermilk syrup is ah-mazing! These would make a super fun first day of school or a birthday breakfast.
Mix together your pancake mix per directions on the box or recipe.
Separate your mix into 6 different bowls. Make sure someone else is around to do the dishes!
Add one food coloring (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple) to each bowl and mix.
Use a greased pan or skillet to cook your pancakes. Each bowl makes 1 pancake.
Makes 6 pancakes - 1 of each color.
Stack with purple on bottom, then blue, green, yellow, orange, and red on top.
Top off with a little butter and maple syrup, buttermilk syrup or homemade whipped creamand enjoy!
What a delightful idea! I will make these on St. Patrick’s Day!

What do people have with there 🥓?? I like 🧀 n 🍅 black pepper. Or wrapped over chicken n 🧀. Some times sausage and maybe beans.
It adds to the flavour, and stops the bread being dry.
Car value dependant on model around 5k?

We also invite you to become a members of our organisation and you can do this quite easily at the AGM.
This will enable you to participate fully in the voting at the meeting if done prior to the commencement of the meeting.
Our AGM this year will be held at the ‘Famous’ or is it ‘Infamous’ - Bannockburn Hall located at Hall Road in Bannockburn near Cromwell.
The hall has been a long time in coming back to life and we look forward to seeing you there to relive the experience of the hall as a meeting place. It’s a great venue.
The date is Saturday 13 September at 2pm. We promise you a very warm hall and the usual delicious ‘HPCO afternoon tea’ courtesy of our team.
Jonathan Howard and Jane O’Dea from Heritage New Zealand.
Jonathan is the recently appointed Otago/Southland Regional Manager but is no stranger to the Heritage scene in Central Otago. Jane has been based in Dunedin for many years as a heritage planner and has a great depth of knowledge of the heritage of our region.
Their joint presentation will be based on the visual changes to heritage in Central Otago over many years. They will also be talking about the roles that HNZ working with our organisation can do to achieve better heritage outcomes in Central Otago.
Both presentations will be of great interest to help us understand the implications of losing heritage through a variety of circumstances. This will be a very interesting presentation and specially prepared for us.
We have some important business to attend to as we are proposing a change of membership status from Historic Places Aotearoa to direct membership of Historic Places Central Otago.
This entails changes to our constitution regarding membership status including the winding up clause and some other minor changes due to the membership change. Once approved the constitution will form the basis of our application for Charitable Status.
The current committee of eight are all offering themselves for re election. However our constitution does allow us to have up to twelve committee members and we would welcome some new blood on to our committee.
If you have some particular skills that would benefit our organisation we urge you to put your name forward for the election.
Committee members must be financial members of HPA and be nominated by a financial member.
You are welcome to bring along any other non-members and we can enrol them prior to the commencement of the meeting if they wish to fully participate in voting etc.
We look forward to seeing you on the day and supporting our local heritage endeavours.

Uniformly well-acted… a warm, enjoyable night at the theater.
One of the finest plays seen on a Chicago stage this year!
Young playwright Will Shakespeare is stuck. He is overdue in finishing his latest play—a half-baked mess of a comedy called Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate’s Daughter. He finds his muse in Viola de Lesseps, who is driven to do anything—even disguise herself as a man—to fulfill her dream of performing onstage, where no women are permitted. Surrounded by familiar players, including Queen Elizabeth herself, backstage antics collide with onstage dramas. Will and Viola’s passionate, forbidden love affair goes on to inspire Shakespeare’s masterpiece—the most romantic tragedy ever written.
Audio: Post Show Question: Are there conflicts between the historical person and the character you play?
"The Chicago production finds the emotional depth that made the film so great."
Meet Will Shakespeare, poet for hire, who longs for a muse struggles with his new comedy, Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate’s Daughter.
Rachel Rockwell on plotlines paralleling real life, portraying historical figures, and creating Shakespeare's world.
What we know and don't know about Shakespeare from his biographers, and the inherent guesswork in creating a historically-based play.
Award-winning Director and Choreographer, Rachel Rockwell speaks about theater in Chicago.
Shakespeare in Love is presented in the Jentes Family Auditorium.

Enomaly owns CloudCamp™ – has it jumped the shark?, by Sam Johnston, working group secretary at Open Grid Forum, is definitely ‘inside baseball’ but an interesting look at how proprietary interests are battling open standards in the cloud.
The conversation reminds me of The People’s Front of Judea sketch in Monty Python’s The Life of Brian. Check it out.

The number of Bitcoin ATMs is increasing globally but its correlation with the Bitcoin price or its adoption has not been firmly established.
The number of Bitcoin ATMs has crossed the 1000 mark according to CoinATMRadar which uses a map to show Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency ATM locations as well as alternative cryptocurrency exchange services.
There are now 1002 of them with the majority of these machines - 621 - located in the US followed by Canada. South Africa is the only country in Africa on the list with just one machine.
For the Bitcoin ATM manufacturers, Genesis Coin tops the list with its branded machines in 442 locations while Lamassu has 197 and General Bytes theirs in 159 locations.
The US figure didn’t come as a surprise as the country seems to be the next major market for Bitcoin in a couple of years. Several factors are working to its advantage. They include the economy, the currency, the population, higher disposable income and more importantly, events in China.
Basically, the ATM provides one of the easiest ways to buy and sell Bitcoins as a familiar machine that many people have been used to in the traditional sense.
In its blog published on Friday, Feb. 17, CoinATMRadar notes that the last seven days had an average of four machines installed per day, which means almost 30 new machines were installed during last week.
As at May last year, there were 639 Bitcoin ATMs in different parts of the world according to CoinATMRadar. The new figure shows about 56 percent increase in nine months. In 2014, the same website showed there were 211 Bitcoin ATMs operating on six continents.
A Technavio global ATM market report last year says the growing need for automated teller machines including Bitcoin ATMs in developing nations such as Nigeria, India and Kenya is propelling the growth of the global ATM market.
Whether there is a correlation between the increase in the number of Bitcoin ATMs and the price movement of the digital currency or its adoption is yet to be established.
Aside those with a commercial focus, some of the private organizations that have unveiled their personal Bitcoin ATM machine include Deloitte and Ernst & Young (EY), one of the “Big Four” accounting corporations in the world, which installed a Bitcoin ATM in their public office in Switzerland, enabling its clients and employees to purchase and sell Bitcoins.

As well as chicken meat!
Dear Sprout, you small green thing!
Mince Pie, was worth first place!
Be each a veg, nut meat or tart!
It’s understood this Christmas, that Santa has a prob!
Out with the sleigh on Christmas night causing a huge upset!
He sighs so very loudly, now not feeling Christmassy!
Is that Santa’s elves get busy and build him a magic boat!

The winter months invite you to turn away from social pursuits and attend to your personal needs. Too often, the demands of modern life tempt us to forgo rest and relaxation. This can create a terrible imbalance. This winter, take your cue from nature and turn inward. Make more time for solitary pursuits like reading, writing and prayer. If you have a hard time switching gears, try integrating some of the following Feng Shui cures into your home. They’ll help you savor all the benefits this wonderful season affords.
Winter affords a welcome opportunity to slow down and enjoy the finer things in life. If you have a hard time slackening your pace, make some Feng Shui adjustments. Close the curtains, outfit the furniture with dark slipcovers and switch from overhead to task lighting. The more you minimize visual stimulation in your household, the easier it will be to turn inward.
If you’re starting to get cabin fever, integrate some wavy patterns into your decor. Cascading plants, swagged curtains and a hanging display of pots and pans will make it easier to go with the flow. That’s because curved lines slow energy down, rather than speed it along.
Soft, rhythmic sounds will put you in a contemplative mood, which is perfectly suited to winter’s calm. A white noise machine or a recording of the ocean’s surf will prove soothing, even on the most hectic days.
Nothing disrupts peace more than the insisting ringing of a telephone. Get into the habit of turning your phones off for two hours a day, just as a means to promote calm. Never fear: whoever is calling can always leave a message.
Once you’re in the bathtub, it’s very difficult to get out. This is just the sort of activity that’s perfect for winter, because it forces you to stay in one place. Stock up on bath salts, special soap and fluffy towels as a means to make this ritual even more tempting. Remember, winter is a time of self-pampering. Shop accordingly.
Black is the color of winter, for it symbolizes the season’s absence of sunlight. Dressing in black will help slow your pace. So will decorating with this color. A black tablecloth, bedspread or area rug are all good ways to introduce calm to a hyperactive household.
Throw the clock out of the window. Well, not literally, but hiding timepieces from view is a great way to instill an air of calm to any room. Remember, winter is a season of quiet reflection. You can’t cultivate a meditative state if you feel like you’re on a deadline.
Now that you’re spending more time at home, you might as well feel comfortable. Take this opportunity to sort through any junk that accumulated during the busy autumn months. When you’ve cleared the area of trash, store necessary items neatly away in closed containers. This will prevent you from worrying about bills, doctor’s appointments and social appointments when you should be relaxing with your nearest and dearest.
Winter is a time of intimacy. Integrating more circles into your decor will draw everybody in your household into a circle of trust. Polka dotted fabrics, oval area rugs and circular mirrors can bring even the most fractured family together in a spirit of harmony.

I’m in my Mother-in-law's bathroom there is water shooting out of the bathtub and lots of water on the floor. In the next scene I’m riding my bike, or I was trying to ride my bike it had an engine (more like a small motorcycle) it needed fuel, so I took some gas from the back of a pickup truck and put it in the gas tank. I rode my bike extremely fast down some really steep hills like roller coaster tracks and it required a lot of skill. In the dream I was both excited and frightened at the speed at which I was going and the sheer navigation it took to maneuver the narrow track.
Now for the interpretation using Ira Milligan’s dream interpretation book, Understanding the Dreams You Dream: Biblical Keys to Hearing God’s Voice in the Night. Here I will break down each symbol and find the correlating Scripture that goes with it. With the help of the Holy Spirit, I can then understand the dreams meaning.
I believe the bathtub in this dream represents a broken cistern. Cisterns were made out of stone and used to store water in biblical times. It is likened to a reservoir for storing rain water, but the problem is when the cisterns were broken, they were useless. The Bible says that for those who believe living water will flow from their bellies. (John 7:38) That living water comes from the Holy Spirit and not from ourselves. As we learn in Jeremiah 2:13, God the Father is the fountain of living waters. This Scripture is a rebuke for those who have turned away from God and following the Holy Spirit and the Word, but now chase after manmade ideas, doctrines and philosophies.
Instead the Lord requires us to be filled in our vessel or cistern a reservoir of living water that comes from Him. When we do this, we will then be able to overflow with His presence which will lead to signs, wonders and miracles. This is where we become like Jesus and do even greater works.

In week 2 of the Artist's way, Julia Cameron instructs us to put a sign at our work place. It reads: "Great Creator, I will take care of the quantity. You take care of the quality. The sticky note has been sitting on my laptop the past week.
A lot of my day to day struggle comes from trying to dictate the outcome, quality and results of my work. It's the battle between what I can create and what is actually made. My eyes are focused externally instead of internally. What results is unnecessary tension, stress and suffering for something I can't even control.
"You have a right to perform your prescribed duty, but you are not entitled to the fruits of action. Never consider yourself the cause of the results of your activities, and never be attached to not doing your duty."
I believe this is true for creative pursuits, as it is in our lives. My job isn't to be a filmmaker. It's to show up, day after day and focus on doing the work.

Published 1st April 2014 by Usborne.
“Last night someone left a baby on our doorstep.” My heart stops. This is it, I think. Now what do I do?
Sixteen-year-old Amy is used to keeping secrets – about her mum’s illness, her irresponsible sister and her ex-boyfriend. Amy is her mum’s sole carer and every day is filled with tiny battles to achieve the simplest things, from cooking a meal to keeping the house clean, especially when social services come round. No matter how difficult stuff gets, Amy doesn’t want anything to change. But then a shocking discovery turns everything upside-down.
When a newborn baby is left on her best friend’s doorstep, it becomes the talk of the town, and only Amy holds the key to the baby’s identity. Now she has two choices: tell the truth, or live a lie forever.
My Review: Writing in the Sand is a very poignant, and brutally honest story! It covers themes of love, loss, and family, and I really enjoyed reading it.
The story begins with our protagonist, Amy, who, as she’s sitting her exams, is also experiencing a lot of pressure at home. She has to care for her mother, and she’s torn apart over her ex boyfriend’s migration, and now, a baby has turned up on her best friend’s doorstep and Amy knows who’s left it there, and it’s turning her life upside down.
I really liked the character of Amy, because she felt like such a realistic teenager. I was rooting for her all the way through the story, even though some of the choices she made weren’t the best available! I think she’s going to be well loved by anyone who reads this book!
I was really intrigued by the pretty mysterious plot (Though from a note on the press release I realised everything and AHHH! :s) and all of the débuts I’ve read so far this year have been stunning, so I had really high hopes! The plot deals with a lot of pretty scary themes for a teenagers to be dealing with. I’m really impressed that the début author, Helen Brandom, has written everything so well. I had a little correct idea of the outcome, though wholly, the book is quite unpredictable.
Helen Brandom’s writing is truly great. She’s captured the voice of a teenager so successfully and I really loved the narration!
Overall, I really enjoyed Writing in the Sand. It’s a heart-breaking, but also heart-warming story that deals with complicated relationships, pregnancies, and children who have to care for their less able family members. Riveting and powerful, I think a lot of people are going to find the plot really memorable- as they will also find the protagonist! There was one character I wanted to know so much more about, but, oh well… I would really love to hear much more from Helen in the future. A really great, recommended, contemporary!
I received a copy of Writing in the Sand from the publisher, in exchange for a review. In no way at all did this affect my thoughts.
This entry was posted in Uncategorized and tagged contemporary, drama, love, pregnancy, realistic, relationships on April 11, 2014 by keithbwalters.
This book like something read really cover to hopeful do read it.

The business plan from the Financial Adviser Standards and Ethics Authority reveals it is completely dependent on funding from eight contributors, including the big four banks and AMP.
The document was released on the Treasury website as one of its freedom of information (FOI) disclosures.
“The funding agreement is based on a formula to calculate amounts due per quarter from each funder based on relative adviser numbers. Total funding provided is $3.9 million per year,” FASEA said.
FASEA revealed its total income until the end of FY21 is about $15.7 million.
On the expense front, the largest expense item was set for administering the adviser exam, with almost $5.9 million to be spent up until the end of FY21.
After that, $2.3 million will be allocated to remunerate the board, while $4.4 million will be set aside to remunerate executive and support staff.
About $2.2 million will be spent on ‘standard overheads’, with other notable expenses including setting education standards and accrediting courses ($117,612), setting professional year and CPD standards ($50,000) and developing the code of ethics ($25,000).
In November 2018, ifa revealed that FASEA paid a total of $370,641 to its nine board members, as well as $219,090 to its former chief executive Deen Sanders for his seven months in the top job from 18 September 2017 to 30 April this year.

Question: What is an EOT File?
Have you found, downloaded or received an EOT file, but don't know which software program is required to open it?
Before attempting to open an EOT file, you'll need to determine what kind of file you are dealing with and whether it is even possible to open or view the file format.
Answer: Files which are given the .EOT extension are known as Embedded OpenType Font files, however other file types may also use this extension. If you are aware of any additional file formats that use the EOT extension, please let us know.
The best way to open an EOT font file is to simply double-click it and let the default assoisated application open the file. If you are unable to open the file this way, it may be because you do not have the correct application associated with the extension to view or edit the EOT file.
Tip: Try to open the EOT file using a text-editor such as Notepad, as many file types contain simply contain unformatted plain-text and can viewed correctly using this method.

Various screenshots about the progress of ixbar3000. Version 0.31 is current all other are historic and may not represent the state of the program any more.
– PC-98 integrated to ixbar3000.
– Logobrowser displays the corporate logos.
– The optional toppanel displays developers logo.
– ixbar3000’s Multiplayer lobby. You can chat, start and join multiplayer games.
– Username ect. are changed from the Options.
– Canvas allows pixel perfect control of elements, alpha-channels and N-layers. Though it does raise memory usage by 2 MiB it’s easily offset by the superior control.
– Moving away from the ‘custom lists’, Windows programs can now be setup via this handy new tool. Edit->New->set Name & location of exe -> Save. and ixbar3000 will then display the new item in the romlist.
– The Romlist can now be sorted, by time, count, year or rating. The Romlist now has nice unicode stars. The character used can be configured.
– ixbar3000 can show even these unreleased systems. Of course, since there is no games, there’s no images and it is pretty much useless.
– Database page shows the approximate support. It also displays the country of origin and other data.
Themes, uuh. Slightly buggy as all of the widgets haven’t been mapped yet.
– Statistics panel has Corporate data!
– Library view is now integrated with the old stats view. Meaning that, now ‘time played’, ‘no. of starts’ and ‘rating’ are displayed with the name. This new system allows ixbar3000 to have more columns, like ‘year’.
– There’s also more graphics in the systemslist as icons are displayed when available.
– Some features, like search, and the ability to change romlist display are disabled as they are not compatible with the new code.
The entered metadata is parsed and queried. Publishers and Developers get their own treeview, sorted by popularity. Years are also parsed and ixbar3000 generates this nice graph, when the games were released.
– The metadata editor looks like this.
– And finally a NEW award editor! No longer users are expected to edit cryptic text-files, ixbar3000 does the syntax while the user needs only input the awards! These can be then distributed with other users.
– New marquee mode for romlist. For people who prefer more visual look.
– Awards. Think of them as PSN Trophies and/or Microsoft Achievements. But for every game ever.Track your high-scores and best laptimes!
– Basic look of a system, SNES in this case.
– Launching windows and dos programs is now possible.
– Yes, Your bra matches your hair well.
– Widget placement is now more logical.
– Changing system changes romlist.

EIGHT years ago, Steve Axford moved to the remnants of the Big Scrub in far north NSW.
"I bought a house with about three hectares of land surrounding it," he said.
"I was 56 at the time and wasn't ready to fully retire, so I started to plant trees on my property, which was part of an old dairy farm, to regenerate the native rainforest," the ex-IT guy-turned photographer said.
And as he worked the volcanic soils, Axford noticed strange life forms: creatures belonging neither to the plant nor animal kingdoms.
So he got his camera out and started shooting.
Over the years, hundreds of species of fungi have crossed into the focal length of Axford's macro lens, and one look at the resulting images gives audiences the impression of peering, for the first time, through the Hubble telescope into outer space.
"It is another world down there, amid the decomposing leaf matter and decaying wood," Axford said.
"There are an estimated four million species of fungi on Earth and we know almost nothing about them."
The images were so good that BBC producers commissioned some time lapse footage for Sir David Attenborough's Planet Earth 2 series in 2016.
Keep in mind that all the wonder you will see in Axford's work grow locally, in our backyards.
Feel the wonder as Steve Axford takes you on a journey to the magical world of fungi, on the big screen at Nimbin.
At The Nimbin Bush Theatre Auditorium on Saturday, October 13, from 4pm. $10.
