Some mothers requested me to teach English to their kids then. At first I was just doing favor for the kids from Iki's class. I didn't really care how much they would pay me. Those kids were interested to learn English because they see Iki communicating in English. But it turned out that other kids from this apartment building also wanted to join the class too. Now I have totally fourteen students, divided in three classes (^__^)
I was nervous at first, I haven't been teaching for years. But I enjoy it way too much now!!!
Unexpectedly now I have little income myself. First ever since I married papa-chan five years ago. At least I could buy him birthday present with my own money this year? hehehe | <urn:uuid:14ff1e36-fcf4-4ef3-890d-738697f5fc16> | CC-MAIN-2017-47 | http://shiefrallo.blogspot.com/2010/10/back-to-teaching.html | 2017-11-23T05:39:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-47/segments/1510934806736.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20171123050243-20171123070243-00060.warc.gz | en | 0.99346 | 157 |
Asked about the paintings they liked the best a small group of visitors were torn between ‘Smile for the Camera’ a watercolour of the Grand Canyon, ‘Squall in Halifax Nova Scotia’, a beautiful watercolour of a boat in Newhaven and a painting of the Canal du Midi.
There are large paintings of vast areas of prairie and an intriguing view from his window in a hotel in the United States an unusual composition with simple blocks of colour contributing to the overall effect and sold on the first day.
Sad but effective was a corner of Oradour-sur-Glane in France, the village where the whole population was massacred By German soldiers in a matter of hours during the last war and which has been left exactly as it was as a memorial. Rob is happy to share his techniques and says he started by covering the canvas in red before adding any further detail.
Rob is on hand as an artist in residence during his exhibition, so you can watch him at work at his easel, he is full of information about his techniques which is refreshing. He also has an impressive table of his original sketches, too.
His painting of the ‘Tidal Surges’ in Saltdean suggest this guy is fearless in getting his source material. If you have ever done the cliff walk in a gale you will know what I mean! Lovely postcards of some of the paintings are available at just £2.00 a real bargain.
Not only is Rob an artist but has traveled to the United States twice in the last few years researching his family history which he used as the basis of his novel ‘Ocean of Grass’ which concerns the human side of immigrants to America. It is good read about a pioneer family’s struggles in the 1880/90’s, ‘who end up founding the town of Charity on the open prairie’. Available on Amazon but Rob is far too modest to mention it today.

A message from Mandy Savery-Whiteway, Director of Education
Saturday, April 2 is World Autism Awareness Day, a day to develop and increase world knowledge about autism.
As educators and support staff of Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board, we have chosen a profession that is in the service of students. As described in the Achieving Excellence & Equity and Well-Being priorities in the 2015-2020 Strategic Plan, through our daily interactions with students, their families, community partners and each other, we provide programs and services to help each success while creating welcoming, safe and inclusive learning environments that optimize students’ potential.
According to the organization Autism Speaks/Light it Up Blue, World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD) shines a bright light on autism as a growing global health crisis. WAAD activities help to increase and develop world knowledge of the autism epidemic and impart information regarding the importance of early diagnosis and early intervention. Additionally, WAAD celebrates the unique talents and skills of persons with autism and is a day when individuals with autism are warmly welcomed and embraced in community events around the globe.

Every day as I exit and enter my neighborhood, I see a patch of painted cement where there was once a mature tree. Just after the repaving of Long Beach Boulevard, in April of 2007, the City posted a notice on the tree announcing its proposed removal. I objected.
Shortly thereafter, I met with city officials and was told three trees would be planted directly across the street to mitigate for the removal of the tree. The City wasted little time removing the mature tree, yet over one and a half years later they have yet to plant a single tree, let alone three.
On Tuesday I’ll cast my vote at Scherer Park. Interestingly enough a park that was sacrificed to make room for a multi-million dollar police station- which daily sits empty after 5 p.m. Measure I promises more police stations without funding more police. Councilmember Gabelich, in her last [advertisement], stated that she believes Measure I will enhance the quality of life in Long Beach. I wonder what she expects. Certainly police won’t fill an empty building, but maybe three trees will finally sprout after one and a half years.
My vision for Long Beach is not one of less parkland to house empty buildings or cement in place of fallen trees. It is one of responsible leaders who consider the long-term effects of their actions and not push for bandage solutions. Leaders who find a fair way to truly improve the quality of life within a city and who don’t invest public funds in failing financial institutions, while already having a 17-million-dollar deficit.
Mayor Foster says Measure I isn’t perfect, but it’s the best we can do. By rejecting Measure I, let him know our vision for Long Beach is perfect- we want responsible solutions.
Weighing Watergate against Weather Underground
In your October 23rd issue, under the Opinion section, you published an item by Brett Hawkins. The author pits John McCain’s belated friendship with G. Gordon Liddy, “the star of the Watergate scandal,” against Barack Obama’s past relationship with Bill Ayers, formerly of the Weather Underground. His point appears to be that Liddy was just as violent as Ayers. Although I would agree that this should not be a central issue about the presidential candidates, nevertheless, it appeared to me that Mr. Hawkins was disingenuous.
Without substantiation, Hawkins claims that Liddy “…planned to firebomb, kidnap, and lure the competition and its supporters….” Is that so? The facts are that Liddy only planned and effectuated a non-violent break-in of Democratic headquarters. As the result, he was charged with conspiracy to do so, with burglary, and with violating federal wiretapping laws. He was also part of an unsuccessful commercial burglary, the purpose of which was to obtain Daniel Ellsberg’s medical records. Liddy might have made other inflammatory statements; but, in fact, he never carried out any violent deeds.
As for Ayers, he and his wife, Bernardine Dorn, held positions of authority in the Weather Underground, a group noted for violence- often by bombings. In 1969 Ayers participated in placing a bomb under a statue dedicated to police casualties resulting from a 19th century labor riot. The explosion shattered windows of buildings and hurled debris onto a nearby freeway. The statue was rebuilt in 1970 but was again blown up by unidentified persons. Ayers also participated in the following additional bombings: in 1970, a branch of the New York City Police Department; in 1971, the U.S. Capitol Building: and in 1972, the Pentagon.
Which would you classify as more violent and dangerous: 1) A person who broke into a commercial building at night to view documents, but did no other harm to the building or its occupants; or 2) a person who on successive occasions bombed your local police station, your city hall, and a statue near buildings and a busy freeway?
SIZING IT UP
My husband and I want to thank you for publishing the article “Signal Hill To Clamp Down on Parking of Oversized Vehicles” (October 23). As Signal Hill homeowners for over 30 years and owners of a pick-up truck with a camper on it, we were oblivious to the ordinance in the works.
As a result of reading that article, I attended the city council meeting on Tuesday night to address our concerns about this ordinance. It was at that meeting that we, along with another couple in attendance to address the same issue, found out that this ordinance has been in the works for two years and was first introduced at the October 14 meeting. My husband and I have demanding jobs and do not have the leisure of perusing every city council agenda. Therefore, we were unaware of the pending legislation.
After two people and I spoke, the council put it to a vote. Unfortunately, the ordinance passed 3-2, and, within 30 days, residents with RVs, trailers, boats, etc. are going to be restricted from parking in front of their own homes.
Keep up the good work, Signal Tribune. We rely on you to let us know what important things are happening in Signal Hill in case the council is working on additional “surprises.”

Mitsubishi Nuclear Energy Systems plans to open its main engineering center in Charlotte, in a $4.1 million project that will create 135 jobs over the next five years, officials announced today.
Gov. Beverly Perdue and Mitsubishi executives made the announcement at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
Mitsubishi will use the facility “to perform projects to build nuclear power plants for U.S. utility companies,” Perdue’s office said in a news release.
According to the governor’s press release, wages for the jobs will vary based on function, but the average will be $102,454 a year, not including benefits.
Mecklenburg County’s average annual wage is $51,584.
A state gave the company a Job Development Investment Grant for the project. Such grants are awarded only to new and expanding businesses and industrial projects that the state deems to have benefits that exceed the costs to the state. The grants are also given to projects that would not be undertaken in North Carolina without them.
Under the terms of program, a company can receive a grant equal to 60 percent of the state personal income withholding taxes derived from the creation of new jobs for each of the nine years in which the company meets annual performance targets. Mitsubishi could get up to $2.8 million in benefits.
The grant could also pump $961,000 into the state’s Industrial Development Fund. When a JDIG is awarded in more economically prosperous counties, such as Mecklenburg, 25 percent of the grant award is allocated to the IDF to encourage economic development in less-prosperous counties. | <urn:uuid:39c492dd-e3c6-436f-9da1-a65e8279168e> | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | http://mecktimes.com/news/2011/05/31/mitsubishi-nuclear-energy-systems-to-open-41m-engineering-center-in-charlotte-create-135-jobs/ | 2015-05-25T23:44:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-22/segments/1432207928729.99/warc/CC-MAIN-20150521113208-00063-ip-10-180-206-219.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.951781 | 345 |

Memphis Minivan Mom and Kids Flee Gun-Firing New Mexico Lawmen!
Some advice to holiday travelers: If you find yourself driving through New Mexico, be warned that when the sign says the speed limit is 55, they’re not kidding. And if you get stopped for going 71 in a 55, it’s best to sign the ticket and continue on your way, with your foot eased back on the gas just a bit, of course. So discovered one Oriana Farrell of Memphis, Tenn., last month.
Farrell was driving with her five children near Taos on Oct. 28 when she was stopped for speeding by Officer Tony DeTavis of the New Mexico State Police. The encounter, which was captured on the police car’s dashboard camera, was unremarkable -- up to the point Farrell decided to make it otherwise. In the video, we hear DeTavis tell Farrell he has cited her for speeding and explain that she has the option of appearing in court or paying a $126 fine by mail. Farrell can’t make up her mind, and she and DeTavis discuss the matter for more than four minutes. Exasperated, DeTavis tells Farrell to turn her engine off while he goes back to his car.
But Farrell does not turn the car off. Instead she drives away, with DeTavis soon following behind, lights ablaze and siren wailing. And then a bad situation gets worse (but not as bad as it would get later). Farrell pulls over and stops, and DeTavis walks up and opens the driver’s door of the minivan, telling her to get out. The kids can be heard screaming as DeTavis tries to pull her from behind the wheel. During the struggle, Farrell’s 14-year-old son gets out of the front passenger seat and walks around the front of the minivan as if to challenge the officer, but he retreats when DeTavis draws his Taser and aims it at him.
If only that were the end of it. Farrell then tells DeTavis she will sign the ticket, but by now, unbeknownst to her, that is no longer an option. After trying unsuccessfully to pull Farrell out, DeTavis abandons the tactic and tries his power of persuasion. This too is fruitless. He calls for backup and continues and continues and continues to order her out. At long last she gets out and walks to the back of the minivan, but when it dawns on her that she is about to be arrested, she makes a break for the driver’s door.
And then things really go south. DeTavis grabs Farrell and tries to keep her from re-entering the minivan, bringing a chorus of screams from the kids inside. The 14-year-old boy gets out and circles around the back of the minivan before rushing at DeTavis. DeTavis again draws his Taser, at the sight of which the boy runs away and gets back in the minivan. Amid much continued shouting, two more officers arrive, each in his own car, to find DeTavis trying without success to open the minivan’s right-side sliding door. DeTavis then uses a collapsible baton to break a side window, but before he can reach in to unlock the door, Farrell drives off. As she does so, Officer Elias Montoya fires three pistol shots at the minivan.
Driving at speeds up to 100 mph, Farrell then leads the police on a four-minute chase, during which she ran a red light and at times drove on the wrong side of the road. She finally pulls into a hotel parking lot and gives up. A grand jury charged Farrell with 12 counts, including intentional abuse of a child, aggravated fleeing of a law enforcement officer, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Her son was charged with battery on a police officer. | <urn:uuid:3110fc66-fe0e-488d-b95e-41f28d410a57> | CC-MAIN-2020-05 | https://pjmedia.com/blog/mom-flees-nm-lawmen/ | 2020-01-29T09:16:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-05/segments/1579251789055.93/warc/CC-MAIN-20200129071944-20200129101944-00042.warc.gz | en | 0.969342 | 813 |

Bring gender and sexuality studies to bear on important social and intellectual questions by choosing a minor in Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGSS). Drawing on the social sciences and humanities as well as the arts, natural sciences, law, and more, a minor in WGSS is an invaluable complement to any undergraduate major at Northeastern University. Explore gender and sexuality in the global community by dipping into and across traditional disciplines. Study politics and pop culture, sociology and psychology, writing and religion as they are inscribed with gendered meanings and values. Combining WGSS with your major field of study will open up new ways of thinking and enhance your analytical skills as you apply them not only to your major and other coursework, but to the world at large.
Our wide range of interdisciplinary course offerings give students the chance to explore gender and sexuality and their relation to other axes of power and identity, including race, class, and ethnicity. WGSS courses will ask students to use theoretical and empirical scholarship within traditional disciplines and across cutting-edge, interdisciplinary frames. As a WGSS minor, you’ll approach your studies through frameworks that bridge traditional fields.
What sets WGSS apart is the freedom to take courses from across the university to complete your requirements. The minor is structured so that students take one introductory course, providing the interdisciplinary framework they will then apply to their studies in a choice of three elective courses with WGSS content from a pre-approved list, which must come from at least two different departments and one at the 2000 level or above. Students are not limited to the course list in the catalog: many times, special topics courses will have a focus on feminism, gender, or sexuality and may be reviewed for exception by the program director.
In addition, minoring in WGSS at Northeastern provides students the unique opportunity to engage with the premiere academic journal in women’s and gender studies – Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society – as Northeastern is the editorial home of the journal and many of our affiliated faculty serve on the editorial board. Previous WGSS minor students have completed a co-op with the journal as well as at various political and human services organizations. Minors will also have the opportunity to attend speaker series, panels, symposia, and film screenings given by Northeastern’s Forum on Feminist Thought, a collective dedicated to working across disciplinary boundaries to bring together feminist intellectuals in the Boston area and beyond.
Students from any college may pursue a minor in WGSS, provided that they have a 2.00 GPA. To declare your minor in WGSS today, visit the Minor Declaration Page.
See the list of WGSS minor courses here. Please note that this list does not include special topics courses. If you have taken a course with significant WGSS content that is not included here, the program director may review the course syllabus to make an exception to include the course as an elective for your minor. To submit a syllabus for review, contact email@example.com. | <urn:uuid:e8ee175e-df32-4903-a5ad-34aaa00a5276> | CC-MAIN-2017-26 | https://www.northeastern.edu/cssh/wgss/undergraduate/minor/ | 2017-06-27T01:56:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-26/segments/1498128320887.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20170627013832-20170627033832-00396.warc.gz | en | 0.949122 | 638 |

Frenectomy & Ankyloglossia
A frenectomy is the surgical removal of a frenum, which is a small fold of tissue that secures or restricts the movement of certain organs or parts of the body. At Emigh Dental Care, we perform two types of frenectomies, lingual and maxillary labial. A lingual frenectomy is often performed for the treatment of ankyloglossia or tongue tie. Oftentimes, the frenum can limit the movement of the tongue, which can cause functionality issues such as eating/chewing certain foods and talking. A maxillary labial frenectomy is performed to remove the frenum within the upper lip, which can cause pain, restriction of the upper lip, or a large gap to occur between the two front teeth. This condition can also potentially cause a preexisting gap that was corrected with braces to reoccur. However, thanks to the skill and years of medical experience of our Long Beach Dentists at Emigh Dental Care, a lingual frenectomy and maxillary labial frenectomy can be performed to correct these issues. A frenectomy is a very common treatment for men, women, and children with an ankyloglossia or a maxillary labial frenum. Call our Southern California office today to learn more about how this procedure can help improve this condition.

He talked me through everything before he started, was not rushed, made sure I was comfortable throughout and kept everything lighthearted as well. I am so thankful I found this office - the staff truly cares about the patient experience - from the front desk to the dental chair.

What To Expect
Prior to the surgical procedure, our dentists will examine the condition to determine the severity of each patient's restriction. In some cases, individuals may only need a minor cut to the frenum to provide optimal movability to the tongue or upper lip. However, in other cases, after the initial incision is made, it will be followed by an additional surgical release of the muscle fibers within the area. Once the frenum and restricting muscle fibers are cut, the incision will be sutured closed. Typically, a frenectomy is performed under a local anesthetic and takes about 15 – 30 minutes.
After the procedure, tenderness and soreness are common, but pain medication may be prescribed to alleviate the discomfort. It's also essential to keep the sutured area as clean as possible. Therefore, brushing with a soft tooth brush and gently rinsing the mouth with light salt water after every meal is encouraged. These simple actions will help to reduce the risk of potential infection. Depending on the type of stitches used, a follow up appointment may need to be made to remove insoluble stitches. Optimum healing usually takes 1 – 3 weeks.
Plan Your Procedure
Improve function and movement
Many men, women, and children today suffer from tongue tie or restriction to their upper lip. However, thanks to the skill of our talented dentists and modern surgical techniques, a frenectomy can be safely and effectively performed to improve your condition. If you are experiencing pain or extreme tongue or upper lip restriction, call Emigh Dental Care today. Our practice can help improve the function and mobility of your tongue or upper lip, which can help to further improve your quality of life. | <urn:uuid:8ac35764-061b-44a6-9d8f-e011506c4ed3> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://emighdentalcare.com/serviceslist/dental-health/frenectomy-and-ankyloglossia-long-beach-ca | 2023-10-02T18:03:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511002.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20231002164819-20231002194819-00079.warc.gz | en | 0.963029 | 1,346 |

A/B Testing evaluates the effectiveness of Content Pages by testing multiple versions/layouts of the Page at once. This is done by creating Page Variants of the original Page, testing the Page with a goal (e.g., clicks), and publishing the most effective Variant. You can learn more about creating an A/B test and configuring it for a Content Page in Liferay DXP’s A/B Testing documentation.
All results from an A/B test running in Liferay DXP are tracked by Analytics Cloud. An A/B test is synced with Analytics Cloud once it’s created. From there, you can manage the A/B test from Analytics Cloud. To view all drafted, running, terminated, and completed A/B tests, go to the Tests menu from the left column.
For a drafted A/B test, you can manage the following:
Target: the Experience and User Segment.
Metric: the goal to track (e.g., Bounce Rate or Click).
Variants: the Page Variants for users to interact with.
Traffic Split: the percentage of visitors that are randomly split between the Variants when visiting the Page.
Confidence Level: the accuracy of the test results.
See Liferay DXP’s A/B Testing documentation for more information on an A/B test’s setup.
Once your A/B test is running, Analytics Cloud offers several reports to keep you up-to-date on your A/B test’s progress:
The Summary panel gives you an overview of your test. It provides you with information like
running time (in days)
total visitor sessions
It also gives you a quick glance at your test metric and the best current performing Variant.
The Variant Report panel provides a detailed breakdown of each Variant and how well they’re performing.
Below are the metrics reported for each variant:
Median: the middle number in the set of sample values. This estimates a typical user’s behavior.
Confidence Interval: the range of values expected to contain the true mean of the population. For example, a 95% confidence interval is a range of values that the system is 95% sure contains the true mean. This gives the range of possible values that seem plausible for the measured goal.
Improvement: the relative improvement from the control group. This metric may also be known as Lift. For example, assume the Control Page has a 15% retention rate. The improvement calculation would be
((16 - 15) / 15) = ~6.67% improvement.
The lets you know the impact of a change. If there is only a small improvement, it may not be worth implementing that change.
Probability to Win: predicts the likelihood that the Variant will beat out all other participating Variants. This lets you see how multiple metrics compare to each other. For example, consider a horse racing event: each horse has a generated chance to win that is posted before a race (i.e., odds of winning), calculated by simulating the race thousands of times. This same method is used for your Variants to calculate their probability of winning the A/B test.
Unique Visitors: the number of visitors contributing to the Variant. A visitor randomly assigned a Variant always sees the same Variant until the test is finished.
Besides knowing how much traffic is hitting a page, this metric also helps determine if there is an issue with how the A/B test is configured. For example, there could be too much traffic going to one Variant (typically caused by a Segment misconfiguration).
The Test Sessions panel provides statistics showing how many sessions view your test impressions per day over time. This helps you validate that your audiences are being directed to your A/B test impressions. It also portrays how your test affects the traffic to your page compared to before.
Next, you’ll learn about an A/B test’s statuses.
An A/B test is always characterized with a status after it starts. These include
Test is Running
No Clear Winner
You’ll explore each status next.
Test is Running¶
This means that your test is still running and needs a larger sample size before declaring a winner. You can still see which Variant is your current best; however, the desired confidence level has not been met.
When a test is running, you can terminate it by selecting Terminate from the Summary bar.
Once your A/B test successfully finishes, a Variant is declared a winner. At this state, you can perform the following actions:
publish the winning Variant as your default experience.
complete the test without publishing any Variants.
No Clear Winner¶
Sometimes, Analytics Cloud cannot determine a winner because no Variant has outperformed significantly over the Control Page. In this case, you can complete the test without publishing anything. The control stays the default experience.
By viewing the generated analytics for your A/B tests, you’re constantly informed on how they’re progressing. With the provided data, you can confidently choose the best Experience for your Site’s users. | <urn:uuid:c7a5f38c-86ea-4a22-a9b3-c048534cbd91> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://learn.liferay.com/analytics-cloud/latest/en/optimization/a-b-testing.html | 2022-09-26T04:26:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030334644.42/warc/CC-MAIN-20220926020051-20220926050051-00059.warc.gz | en | 0.898691 | 1,117 |
Limiting Beliefs: What they are and how to stop them
Have you ever heard some version of the phrase, the only limit is your imagination? In many ways this is true well beyond the limits of all things creative. When you think about it, we are the creators of our lives, so if you can’t imagine a better life, how could you even go about getting there?
Sometimes, however, what gets in your way isn’t that you can’t imagine having or doing something, it’s that you don’t believe you are capable of doing those things. Perhaps you have a dream, but it simply seems out of reach because you are not good at x, y, or z.
But have you stopped to consider whether that story you’re telling yourself is even true? Are you REALLY not good at that thing? Have you tried recently, or are you letting your limiting belief get in your way?
Limiting beliefs are the stories we tell ourselves about why we can’t do something. They may have formed when we were quite young and have persisted our whole lives. If you haven’t worked at something, of course you’re not going to be any good at it. Even natural, raw talent at something needs refining to be truly great.
For example, I was told in school that I was not good at art or writing. I avoided both for many years believing these stories that didn’t originate with me. But I internalized them so much, I couldn’t separate someone else’s truth from my own.
In the last few years I’ve broken out of both of these limiting beliefs and have happily taken up both with lots of success. I wish I would have learned to overcome them a long time ago – imagine how much better I’d be at them with decades of practice under my belt.
If you feel like you’re avoiding something that you want to do because you believe that you can’t, then this video is for you. Today I’m explaining how to uncover those sneaky limiting beliefs that like to hide in the corners of our minds. Then once you uncover them I’m giving you a system that you can use to overcome them so you can finally go after the life that you want.

A referendum will be placed on the August 2 election ballot regarding the local option sales and use tax. The Cannon County Commissioners voted during their monthly meeting Tuesday night to pass the issue on to the voters of Cannon County.
Commissioners voted a couple of months ago to increase it a penny from 1.75 to 2.75 percent. However, they had to rescind the action due to the fact that an increase in the sales tax must be approved by voters via a referendum. The referendum must take place no less than 45 days and no more than 60 days from when the commission votes to place it on a ballot.
They voted unanimously to override a veto made by Cannon County Executive Mike Gannon to increase the local Litigation Tax from $12.00 to $15.00 cover the cost of the state-mandated raise in salary for the General Sessions Court Judge.
The Commissioners also let a veto made by Gannon stand that overrode the enactment of an Archive Fee of $5.00 in regards to preservation and storage of records.
No action was taken on a proposal to require the county attorney to reside within the county.
The Commissioners voted to approve the recommendation of Chairman Bob Stoetzel's candidates for the Industrial Development Board. Members of the board approved Tuesday night included Mindy Gunter, Neal Applebaum, Corey Davenport, Dean Moore, Doug Bodary, David Vance and Randall Reid. The IDB members will serve in six year increments.
The Commissioners voted to allow the Cannon County Fire Board to work with Jerry Pelham Auto Salvage to take the two old fire trucks that are on the Pelham's property that belong to the county and transport them to Chattanooga for scrap. The Board will then be allowed to take the money to buy a cascade system for Bradyville.
The Commissioners approved the bid submitted by First National Bank on a loan to the county for $130,000 for the purchase of two fire trucks. The Bank came in with the lowest interest rate at 1.9 percent.
The fire trucks will be purchased for the Gassaway and Westside Volunteer Fire Departments. There is a company out of Friendship, Tennessee that offered the Fire Departments three fire trucks for $150,000.
The motion was made and approved for the negotations to see if three fire trucks can be purchased for $130,000 and no more than $150,000. If the final asking price is $150,000 then the remaining $20,000 would come out of County General Fund Balance.
The Commissioners also approved ammendments of the Cannon County Schools, General Budget and Cannon County Election Committees.
The meeting was recessed until Thursday, June 28 so the Commissioners can clean up any budget amendments and vote in a continuing budget until a new budget for the new fiscal year which starts in July can be recommended and approved. | <urn:uuid:56f8e420-7368-4a93-b982-9229172501fd> | CC-MAIN-2017-47 | http://www.cannoncourier.com/sales-tax-referendum-to-be-on-august-ballot-cms-8429 | 2017-11-24T22:21:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-47/segments/1510934808972.93/warc/CC-MAIN-20171124214510-20171124234510-00217.warc.gz | en | 0.957756 | 583 |
Potential lottery pick staying in Europe
The NBA Draft is Thursday (June 26th) and the news about players in the draft keeps piling up by the passing hour. The latest out of draft land is that of potential lottery pick and Croatian forward, Dario Saric. The big man has been linked to numerous teams, from the top ten, all the way into the later parts of the first round.
News broke today, from Chad Ford of ESPN, stating that Saric has agreed in principal to terms with Turkish powerhouse Anadolu Efes. It’s a reported three-year deal, and this will leave a lot of teams scrambling to re-adjust their picks based around this move.
Joel Embiid recently broke a bone in his foot, and now Saric has opted to stay in Europe, leaving this NBA Draft a little more battered by the day.
Saric is a SF/PF, with the ability to shoot the basketball, as well as create his own shot, had plenty of potential suitors. Think of a Hedo Turkoglu type player. Somebody who would have certainly had much interest on draft night. Saric had some impressive numbers this year, averaging 19.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game for Cibona in the Adriatic League. His absence will hurt this draft a bit. | <urn:uuid:a5de754d-ab0e-43fa-b556-578940584c67> | CC-MAIN-2015-40 | http://sports-kings.com/passthepill/potential-lottery-pick-staying-europe/ | 2015-10-08T21:12:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-40/segments/1443737899086.53/warc/CC-MAIN-20151001221819-00173-ip-10-137-6-227.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.983885 | 283 |
A guide to the language of gender, attraction, and acceptance.
Gender is complicated, and no one has it completely figured out. Acknowledging this complexity was once the norm. Many cultures – before colonization – had terms and expressions far beyond what we have available today. Vocabulary, especially in and around the transgender community, has exploded. There’s now a variety of words to express a countless number of genders and facets of gender experience. This explosion is a combination of reclamation and creation. But we have to be wary of creation under colonization so we do not replicate the gender norms, ideas, and systems that oppress each other.
That’s part of why this Primer was created. It is an attempt to document the movement to express and identify the complexity of gender while acknowledging its history and intersections. Over the years, we have expanded significantly. We now include some terms in this Primer that are not immediately recognizable as being related to gender in the hopes of helping to explain the context within which the rest of the Primer operates.
Gender is extremely personal. Trying to express our understanding of gender is personal and complicated. We hope the Primer will help people express these things in ways that will help them understand each other and themselves.

Bringing you Daily Shouts about the Transgender Language Primer and other assorted relevant content. We’re fairly responsive if you @ us, but otherwise are not heavily active. This is largely due to how many trolls love using Twitter to harass trans people and otherwise spread disinfo and hate.
We abhor the way Facebook treats trans people (banning folks for using chosen names, not removing anti-trans hate speech, catering to bigots around trans pride), but we do maintain a presence there. Facebook does not make managing a page simple so we may have some lag in responding on this platform due to the byzantine nature of their management tools.
Employment can be a very difficult subject for the trans+ community, which is why we maintain a small presence on LinkedIn to help boost relevant content as well as our own educational posts. This is also a good place to look to see if we have any job opportunities available, such as for our Translation Projects.

Eric Dane is moving from the hospital to the high seas.
The beloved ex-Grey's Anatomy star, who killed off that ABC series to open Season 9, has secured a new starring role: He will anchor TNT's The Last Ship, an upcoming drama from producer Michael Bay.
Based on a William Brinkley novel, The Last Ship will follow the crew of a naval destroyer that survives worldwide catastrophe. We told you it was a Michael Bay production, didn't we?
Dane will portray Captain Tom Chandler, a veteran member of the Navy in charge of the survivors.
The Last Ship will premiere some time in 2013 and also feature Michaela McManus, Charles Parnell, Travis Van Winkle, Christina Elmore and Sam Spruell. | <urn:uuid:d54c465a-6483-425a-9132-ed7def9a0d4e> | CC-MAIN-2015-18 | http://www.tvfanatic.com/2012/10/eric-dane-to-board-tnts-the-last-ship/ | 2015-04-25T21:51:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-18/segments/1429246651727.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20150417045731-00018-ip-10-235-10-82.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.949263 | 157 |

Great school! The teachers are AMAZING! Rogers was named the "Best City to Raise Kids" in Minnesota in 2013 and this school has a LOT to do with it! They consistently have terrific testing scores and they seem to hire only the best teachers in the state! They are very caring and the students feel so comfortable there. I can't say enough good things about this school!
Terrible school! Teachers are "nice", but instruction is antiquated and poor. Principal in uninvolved. So many parents never start in district 728, and I wish I wouldn't have either.
I have 2 children. One is now in 6th grade and the other is in 2nd grade. My oldest son is now attending a magnate middle school designed around pre-engineering, math, and technology, and is earning straight A's. I feel that the teachers he had from k-5 prepared him well. He always scored well on his academic achievement tests. I feel that the teachers at Rogers Elementary do a good job presenting the material and planning the curriculum.

Please Dear Lord, can you help to remove this incompetent blusterer from the White House as soon as possible? He has become a caricature of himself, truly "The Cardboard Candidate." Perhaps you can find a position for him somewhere as a public speaker--preferably where he can do no harm.
Quite simply, a superb analysis of this dreadful administration. I cannot recall any previous individual who sat in the White House who exemplified more hypocrisy and more of a willingness to ignore the American people. Ah, his campaign brought the naive masses to tears, they ignored his empty past as well as his opaque rhetoric--he would be "The Great Uniter." And so, a mere day or two before the November elections he went on national media and spoke to the Hispanics of America, urging them to "get out there and Punish your Enemies." Their "enemies." This administration has been an enemy of America from day one and Americans soon will not be singing God Bless America, but God Help America.
I never thought I would see the day, especially after 9/11, when a Muslim president would spend so much energy trying to polish the image of Islam, while showing the most despicable hostility towards his own nation and numerous former allies of our nation. How this incompetent ideological fool ever wound up in the White House should be a classic text of how the emotional blindness of Americans at a needy time resulted in attributing aspects of saintliness to this man. In a flash, millions of those who supported him with their time, energy, money were kicking themselves for their stupidity at being manipulated. This is the first sense I have had as an American that I simply "have no government" right now. Islam is in DIRECT confrontation with our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Death is the cure of Sharia law for those Muslims who convert to another religion; or choose of their own free will to even LEAVE Islam. And the whacky "clerics" of this bogus "faith" are endorsed by Islam to essentially act as Mafia bosses--they can and regularly DO call for the death of anyone who is deemed to be "A Threat To Islam." Which is anyone with too strong a criticism. The U.S. should rescind the right of Islam to receive tax-free institutional status, as it is a violent and supremacist ideology. Muslim immigration should be suspended until such time that certain reforms are made by Islamic regimes, thus putting pressure on the elite of these societies who love sending their children to American universities. While Israel is forced to be subjected to Islamic propaganda of being some kind of "apartheid" nation, TRUE apartheid (both political and sexual) exists in a slew of Islamic lands. Jews are barred from even entering Saudi Arabia, Abu Dubai. An Egyptian man and his entire family were recently sentenced to death in Egypt because he converted to Christianity. The Egyptian courts had forbid him the right to convert. THIS is the face of Islam that YOU LOVE, Obama. Ironically, it is MUSLIMS themselves who are the major victims of their tribe, with way in excess of 16,000 people murdered by Islamic Terror since 9/11 alone. Turn to any news source tomorrow or the day after and you can get a new, improved body count. Where is John Bolton when we need him????????????????????????????????????
You are absolutely correct. It is not only depressing but it is a danger to America that the masses of Americans STILL think of "Islam" as "just another religion." It follows from this that people like Terry Jones are shallowly looked at as bigots. Like Geert Wilders, I do not have a problem with individual Muslims. It is Islam itself that I despise and I despise it because it is not just a religion but with Sharia Law embedded in it is a Totalitarian and Fascist ideology. Imagine for a moment a Priest, a Rabbi and a Minister. Imagine, for a moment, each one of these faiths having a LAW that if you CONVERT from any of these faiths, you can be put to death. Imagine next that if you even DECIDE to leave, you can also be put to death, branded as "an apostate." Now imagine that in the role of leader of each of these faiths, you are SANCTIONED by your religion to call for the death of "anyone who is a Threat to Catholicism, Judaism or Protestantism. In Egypt now, a man and his entire family have been sentenced to death because he converted to Christianity. He was denied permission from the Courts of Egypt to convert. Meanwhile, Obama bows to the King of Saudi Arabia: No Jews allowed, No Bibles allowed, No Churches or Synagogues allowed, no other religion but Strict Islam allowed. Periodic executions of homosexuals. And...even "Muslim Only" roads. Not long ago, Obama bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia. What a message he sent in that, instead of standing up for Democracy, Freedom of Conscience. I cannot imagine Ronald Reagan bowing in a similar circumstance. Why has Obama forbid his entire staff from using the term "Islamic Terrorist?" Why is he trying to SANITIZE what is absolutely abominable???
I urge readers here to check out what is happening in Paris right now. It appears that the critical mass necessary for demonstrating its ability to take over parts of Paris has hit the Muslim population there. They are breaking French law by holding mass Islamic prayers in the street as a show of force and controlling the population within the area, with police failing to enforce French law. This has fueled a movement of French counter-demonstrations featuring pork and wine...it will get hotter and hotter there. The link and secret video (the maker was threatened with death--what's new with islam?) is at http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/world/2010/August/Isla...
It is insane to permit Islam to operate as "just another religion" in the U.S. Islam should be FORBIDDEN as a violent ideology on the grounds that it violates the U.S. Constitution 1) Giving ANY tax breaks to this Totalitarian ideology which seeks to eventually destroy America is pure suicide. What the courts should focus on are the tenets of Islam that run 180 degrees in opposition to the U.S. Constitution. So called "clerics" are SANCTIONED by Islam to call for the death of ANYONE deemed to be "a threat to Islam." Fatwas (the equivalent of Islamo-Mafioso calls for contract murder) are issued, inciting Muslim members from around the world to kill the targeted individual. Thus, we have had Salman Rushdie, a world class author, hiding out for years in fear. FIVE years after his wonderful cartoon of an Eastern man with a bomb lit in his turban, Westergaard, the sweet older Danish cartoonist is STILL targeted for death. Just this past year Danish police arrested an individual trying to break into his home with an axe. 2) Converting to any other religion can mark you for DEATH. Right now, the Courts of Egypt have condemned a man and his entire family to death for the crime of converting to Christianity. He was denied permission to convert. 3) Even leaving Islam can mark you for death, as you are then branded "an apostate." In short, Islam is a fascist ideology that should be seen as such--this is not Buddhism.
It masquerades as a "religion" to achieve its ends...it is a violent, expansionist socio-political ideology that is ultimately lethal.
Yes, Bolton would be an INCREDIBLE choice. Extremely bright, extremely pragmatic and intuitive. He has the ability to cut through the garbage of political correctness to WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE. I recall an interview he gave to Israelis earlier this past year, lamenting the fact that Obama had essentially given Ahmadinejad a green light to race to a nuclear arsenal. He said, in short, that he would give Iran say, two months to come clean on its nuclear activities or face military intervention. He pointed out there had been a decade of useless sanctions issued with Iran. Bolton is almost at the other end of the spectrum from Obama's obsessive ideological approach to every event. He is exactly the kind of individual who is required for America. As for the Arabs, I don't hear Obama lamenting that the Arab bloc of the U.N. has consistently prevented sui-Homicide Bombing (there is no such thing as a mere "Suicide" Bombing) from being declared "A Crime Against Humanity" by the U.N. Yet he is still attempting to polish the image of that Totalitarian ideology known as Islam.
Re: JOHN BOLTON: I have come across several articles and interviews with John Bolton over just the past week. Many people are urging Bolton to run for the Presidency. God knows we need someone like him. I personally think he would be an extraordinary candidate, the right person for one of the most dangerous times. Has anyone else been reading these floaters?????
I have always seen Obama as a very angry individual. Some more examples of his "racism"--1) Forbids his staff from using the accurate terms "Islamic Terror." Islam, if it is to have its image polished, must not be associated with acts of horrific terror. 2) Immediately trashes Arizona's Immigration Bill, commenting that "now we're gonna have some grandma who goes out for an ice cream being harassed." He IGNORED the fact that Arizona's legal advisers helped to draft this law, which specifically outlawed racial profiling/harassment without just cause. It also TOTALLY denigrated any respect for the any of Arizona's law enforcement departments or agents, insinuating they would automatically be racist. I thought Obama was trained in law--didn't he know when to keep his mouth shut? 3) He issues Israel a RACIST demand that Israel forbid their Jewish citizens in E. Jerusalem from building in their very own CAPITAL. This despite having a valid building permit (which permits EVERY citizens to build anywhere) and despite the Jews having lived in the city for centuries and centuries. How about France "demanding" that Roman Catholics cease to build in Washington, D.C?" Jordan militarily occupied E. Jerusalem from 1948 until the 6-day war of '67. Jordan kicked out ALL Jews and trashed every Jewish house of worship. Apparently, 62 years of Arab "occupation" trumps thousands of years of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and the Jewish people. 4) Obama opened his big mouth IMMEDIATELY again when the black Harvard historian Henry Louis Gates was arrested on suspicion of burglary in his home area. The policeman who questioned him was abused and found Gates uncooperative. Rather than letting the police department handle things, Obama poisoned the black-white relations of the nation by screaming racism (without any knowledge really of what was had occurred). Again--he inflicted his OWN hypersensitivity on the public, while attempting to ingratiate himself with blacks. His anti-Arizona stance was an attempt for Hispanic votes, I believe. Ah, but who cares about 20 million undocumented illegal immigrants, right????!!!
Never in my life did I think I would witness a radical regime taking over Washington and waging war on the American people. We now have MILLIONS and MILLIONS of Americans who voted this regime into power who are kicking themselves and wondering how they ever could make such a fatal mistake like this. Again and again and again, edicts that run 180 degrees in the OPPOSITE direction of Americans are handed down. Whether it is taking the citizens to court in Arizona for having the audacity to basically rewrite the Federal Immigration Law with one different caveat (i.e. to actually demand the enforcement that has not been carried out), to Pseudo-Health Care, to thrashing Israel and attempting to forbid that nation's citizens from building homes in their VERY OWN CAPITAL, to endorsing a Mega-Mosque while knowing that the main individual behind it is a Hamas supporter and that those proposing this Monument to Islamic Slaughter as their trophy refused Bloomberg's request not to build it at this location, Americans KNOW in their heart of hearts that THIS IS A GOVERNMENT OPPOSED TO THE PEOPLE at virtually EVERY turn. Forbidding his staff from using the phrase "Islamic Terrorist..." good grief. I see ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in this man's actions that speak of any genuine love or respect for America. What I sense is an extremely angry man acting out his get-even strategy. As whacky as this comes across, it is what I feel about him. | <urn:uuid:e3a841f4-8d92-4d98-a1fa-b8a1923595a1> | CC-MAIN-2016-50 | http://intensedebate.com/people/marat1 | 2016-12-08T20:06:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-50/segments/1480698542655.88/warc/CC-MAIN-20161202170902-00014-ip-10-31-129-80.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.969215 | 2,590 |

BIRMINGHAM – Birmingham Police Department (BPD) Chief Scott Thurmond held a press conference Tuesday morning to address the spree of homicides that plagued the city over Labor Day weekend.
On Friday, a shooting on Arkadelphia Road led to the death of a Birmingham man and the life-threatening injury of a female toddler, according to police.
After responding to a report of a traffic accident, BPD officers found two vehicles that had collided with one another. They discovered Demarkus Etwan Moss, 22, slumped over with a gunshot wound in one of the cars.
Moss was ruled dead at the scene by Birmingham Fire and Rescue (BFR). The rest of the victims, including the female toddler as well as a male infant and the injured occupants of the second vehicle, were transported to nearby hospitals.
The male infant and occupants of the second vehicle’s injuries were not life-threatening, according to police.
On Saturday, Rodriquez Jerrell Powell, 32, and Justin Jarell Taylor, 35, were found unresponsive inside a vehicle suffering from gunshot wounds. Powell was pronounced dead at the scene, and Taylor was pronounced dead at UAB Hospital.
According to police, the initial investigation suggested that an assailant drove past the victims and fired shots from another vehicle. Officers discovered over 20 shell casings on the ground.
Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin posted on Facebook on Sunday morning, calling out members of the gangs H2K, 6500 Boys, 420, TMSG and CPMG and asking them to “chill out and put the guns down.”
Woodfin said at least one of the Labor Day weekend shootings is believed to be gang-related.
Later that night, Jalen Jamarcus Tolbert, 24, and Marquse Terrail Yarbrough, 25, were found lying on 3rd Avenue West suffering from gunshot wounds. A third adult male was found in an apartment suffering from gunshot wounds as well.
According to police, the investigation suggested one of the victims was involved in an argument before multiple individuals fired shots. The gunshot detection system, Shot Spotter, estimated that over thirty rounds were fired.
Tolbert and Yarbrough both were pronounced dead at the hospital. The third victim survived.
Police said another adult male made it to UAB Hospital alone with non-life-threatening gunshot wounds in another vehicle.
“Our city is up against individuals who do not mind firing an alarming number of rounds at one another from powerful weapons, often in a place that gets community members in harm's way,” Thurmond said. “Whether it's a result of groups feuding or individuals involved in a disagreement, violence is shown to be the number one tool to use to resolve issues in our communities. Everyone must play a part in changing this narrative.”
When asked about the prevalence of gangs, Thurmond said “groups” were the cause of many of Birmingham’s problems. He said he doesn’t know whether or not the groups were at war with one another, and the BPD is doing anything it can to dismantle them.
According to Thurmond, many homicides result from an altercation between people who know each other.
“The problem with that is, those are long-lasting effects which can never be reversed,” Thurmond explained.
Thurmond encouraged Birmingham citizens to provide information to bring perpetrators of violence into custody. He said BPD officers were able to make an arrest in a homicide investigation at the beginning of the month due to a citizen coming forth with information.
“The message needs to be delivered to everyone that if you inflict violence upon one another, our fellow community members or anyone else in our city, we’re going to do everything we can to bring you to justice,” Thurmond said. “... The community has to be the eyes and ears of the police department. It’s hard to be everyone at the same time.”

At first glance, afro textured hair would appear resilient. It’s thick, it’s full, it’s cottony, it looks pretty darned tough, but looks can be deceiving. Natural African American hair is actually one of the most delicate hair textures that there is. It doesn’t take much to damage it at all, so if you want to maintain a head full of beautiful curls there are a few general safety rules that must be followed.
Wrap it up
A large majority of our hair’s damage occurs while we’re sleeping. We toss, we turn, and all the while the delicate ends of our hair are being ripped apart by the friction of it rubbing against a cotton pillow. To prevent splitting ends while you slumber, wrap your hair up in a silk or satin scarf before bed, or purchase a satin pillow case.
African American hair needs moisture to thrive. A spray bottle full of water is your hair’s best (and cheapest) friend. Condition your hair regularly, and if you feel it drying out throughout the day, give it a quick spritz of water. For added moisture add a tiny amount of your favorite conditioner to the bottle as well for inexpensive leave in conditioning.

28 Feb 2000: This document is still basically a valid overview of Gnome-Print. In addition to the original PostScript driver, drivers now exist for Gnome Canvas-based preview, direct render to RGB (also using the Canvas to render), and metafiles.
The high level text interface is still not done, but work continues on it under the Pango umbrella.
There are a fuckload of other things out there that overlap somewhat with Gnome-Print, including:

levien.com Gnome home
Gnome is in need of a unified printing architecture. This document outlines a proposal for such an architecture, geared towards heavily graphics-intensive applications.
The goals of this architecture include:
- Absolutely uncompromised output quality
- Speed, memory efficiency, and other related performance goals
- Ability to work smoothly with PostScript printers, fonts, and other resources
- A screen display derived from the Caanvas
- An extension path for a wide variety of Unicode scripts
- An extension path for a richer set of graphics operators than PostScript supports, especially transparency
- To make life as easy as possible for application developers
Towards these goals, we propose an architecture comprising several different components. The main component that an application program sees is the printing API. This API is implemented as a library (as part of Gnome). Upon initialization, the application recieves a printing context, which is conceptually a canvas for the application to paint on using a sequence of paint method invocations. Finally, the application invokes the showpage method, which causes the page to be imaged.
The printing context has a virtualized interface, and may represent a simple translation into PostScript, rasterization for a non-PostScript printer, rasterization for the screen, or translation into a display list file format.
Another major feature of the printing API is access to fonts. In our conceptual model, fonts are not associated with a particular printer, but are rather generally available resources, and are sent to the printer when necessary.
Along with the printing API, Gnome will include a text formatting API, which will handle the basics of text formatting, including hyphenation, justification, kerning, and ligatures. In the extension path, this API also combines several PostScript fonts into a single virtual font, and also handles bidirectional text formatting.
First cut at the printing API
This draft of the printing API contains the functions needed to get basic PostScript printing working. It is expected that many functions will be added later. However, it shouldn't be too hard to support backward compatibility with these functions.
InitializationGnomePrintContext * gnome_print_context_new (GnomePrinter *printer);
The main function to create a new printing context. For doing a print preview, there may be a similar function that returns both a print context and a print preview widget.GnomePrinter * gnome_print_default_printer (void);
This just returns the default printer. There will be a similar call for popping up a "Select printer" dialog box.void gnome_print_context_close (GnomePrintContext *gpc); void gnome_print_context_free (GnomePrintContext *gpc);
The close call sends the rendered pages to the printer (eg by invoking lpr on the temporary file). The free call destroys all data structures and frees up any other resources. If free is called before close, it's considered an abort.
API calls for rendering vector graphics
A shorthand notation will be used here - the C prototype:int gnome_print_moveto (GnomePrintContext *gpc, double x, double y);
will be represented as:printer->moveto (double x, double y)
This notation is intended to be reminiscent of object oriented notations. The return code is zero on success, or an error code on failure.
To make the API as consistent with PostScript as possible, a PrintContext contains quite a bit of implicit state, including a current color, a current path, a current clipping path, a current font, and a host of other settings for the specific graphics operators. It's up to the specific implementation whether to actually represent this state or to simply pass it along to the next stage in the printing pipeline (i.e. to generate a PostScript file).
One anticipated future extension is the ability of the printing context to reflect the graphics state. This will need to be enabled in advance of any painting. When enabled, a number of methods are enabled which return pieces of the implicit state in appropriate data structures. For example, getcurrentpath () returns the current path in a Bezier path data structure. Since many of the operations can do nontrivial manipulations on the state (for example, strokepath ()), this implies that the library actually maintains the state and is capable of serious imaging functions.
Thus, one way to access some of these imaging functions would be to support a null printing context, the only function of which is to support these reflection calls. The implementation of the printing API may also choose to dispatch method invocations to both a simple pass-through implementation and the null context implementation to implement enabling reflection.
Like PostScript, the methods are invoked "bottom to top," i.e. each painting method paints over what's already present. Thus, fairly sophisticated layering techniques should be possible by carefully ordering the method invocations.printer->newpath () printer->moveto (double x, double y) printer->lineto (double x, double y) printer->curveto (double x1, double y1, double x2, double y2, double x3, double y3) printer->closepath ()
These calls simply append segments to the "current path" object in the printer context.
We may also want to support the rmoveto, rlineto, and rcurveto operators, which are identical except for representing coordinates relative to the current point.
Also, the arc, arcn, and arcto operators would probably be handy, even though they can be fairly easily simulated using curveto.printer->setrgbcolor (double r, double g, double b)
Set the color, with (0, 0, 0) as black and (1, 1, 1) as white. It is expected that the universe of color setting options will expand widely as ICC profile support and prepress graphics are added. But this will do nicely for screen display and basic printing.printer->fill () printer->eofill ()
Fill the current path, using either the nonzero or even-odd winding rules.printer->setlinewidth (double width) printer->setmiterlimit (double limit) printer->setlinejoin (int jointype) printer->setlinecap (int captype) printer->setdash (int n_values, double *values, double offset) printer->strokepath () printer->stroke ()
These are basically straightforward implementations of the PostScript operators.
The font methods in the print API are low-level. Most applications will probably want to use the higher level interface in the text formatting API.GnomePrintFont * findfont (char *fontname, double size); printer->setfont (GnomePrintFont *font);
The findfont function doesn't work on the basis of implicit state in the print context. Rather, it goes off and finds the font, and returns some kind of handle to it. If the font cannot be found, it returns NULL.
printer->show (char *text);
This works the same way as the show operator in PostScript - it displays the text at the current point (i.e. the point set by moveto) in the current font, and advances the point. The text is represented as an 8-bit null-terminated string in the font's own encoding. Thus, this function is not very good if kerning, ligatures, or non-Roman scripts are desired. For most applications, the text formatting API will be superior.
Thus, this function is a fairly thin layer over PostScript's show operator. One function it will provide, however, is to automatically download the font to the printer if it exists in .pfb format on the machine but is not resident in the printer.
PostScript uses the concept of a current transformation matrix (CTM) to represent scaling, rotation, and generalize affine transforms. The matrix is represented as a six-element array. The transformation from user space to device space is as follows:x_device = x_user * CTM + y_user * CTM + CTM; y_device = x_user * CTM + y_user * CTM + CTM;
The initial CTM represents the bottom left corner of the page as (0, 0) in user space, the point one inch above the corner as (0, 72), and the point one inch to the right of the corner as (72, 0). Note that this coordinate system is "upside down" relative to the usual screen coordinate system.printer->concat (double matrix) printer->setmatrix (double matrix)
The concat method executes CTM = matrix X CTM, using matrix multiplication as defined in section 4.3 of the PostScript Languge Reference Manual, 2nd ed.
The setmatrix method blows away the current CTM and replaces it with the one given. As such, it's fairly dangerous to use.
The translate, rotate, and scale methods can be implemented as simple wrappers over concat.
The state stack
PostScript's state has a number of elements that are easy to set, but fairly difficult to unset, specifically modifications to the CTM, and the clipping path. Thus, printing a tree-structured page in which individual nodes modify the state is best done by wrapping the traversal of nodes in a gsave/grestore pair. These operators push the entire graphics state on a stack and pop it.
printer->gsave () printer->grestore ()
Clippingprinter->clip () printer->eoclip ()
These methods compute the intersection of the current path and the current clip path, and assign the result to the current clip path. There is no way to expand the clip path except for wrapping the operation in a gsave/grestore.
The clip method uses the nonzero winding rule, while eoclip uses the even-odd winding rule.
Image support is a large can of worms - there are many, many options that could be supported. Let's keep it simple for now, though.printer->grayimage (char *data, int width, int height, double matrix) printer->rgbimage (char *data, int width, int height, double matrix)
The grayimage method is effectively similar to the image operator in PostScript, and rgbimage is effectively similar to rgbimage with ncomp fixed at 3. Bit depth is fixed at 8bpp.
Lots of extensions are possible here. PostScript supports bitdepths larger than 8bpp, and CMYK color spaces. Other extensions we may want to support include larger color spaces (eg 6-color hifi color), and RGBA images. But those are best left for another day.
Another important extension path is support for ICC color profiles. We expect ICC profiles to be the native color management model in the Gnome printing architecture, with PostScript CRD's basically ignored.
Just print the damned pageprinter->showpage ()
This method closes out the page. If the document is being printed to a temporary file, it may just add an end-of-page code to the file. If the document is being printed directly to the printer, it may start the actual paper in motion. In the case of the null printing context, it just clears out all of the graphics state.
I am confident that this set is sufficient for most basic printing needs.
Text formatting API
It is expected that most printing in Gnome will be done through the text formatting API rather than the low level font methods of the main printing API. Here is a brief list of the additional features:
- Typographic sophistication including kerning and ligatures
- Direct support for reflection
- Easy access to hyphenation and justification
- String encoding is simple Unicode
- We will be able to render text on the screen quicker and better
The basic datatype passed from the application to the text formatting API is a attributed text. Conceptually, this is a sequence of 32-bit Unicode/ISO 10646 character codes, each with an associated attribute. In practice, this data will be encoded to save on space. Characters will be UTF-8 encoded. Attributes will be represented as run lengths (i.e. for characters i through j, use this attribute).
The first primary function of the text formatting API will be to convert this attributed text into a list of lines, each of which consists of a list of attributed glyphs. This process is generally known as "hyphenation and justification". In our library, it also includes the steps of kerning and ligatures. This is also the step where "virtual fonts" get resolved into real fonts.
The resulting data structure is opaque to the application (perhaps), but can be queried extensively for geometry info. Example queries are metrics (width of each line, bounding box for each line), and also enough info to resolve an (x, y) coordinate back into a character number.
A special character will be used to represent a "box" for graphics or other in-line element. The dimensions of the box are given as an attribute.
Finally, the list of lines of attributed glyphs is rendered to the printer, using an additional method of the print context.
Here's what I envision for attributes:
- Font family (the name of the font, eg "Helvetica")
- Expansion/compression (either through scaling (ugh!) or through multiple master)
- Matrix slanting (ugh!)
- Weight (normal or bold for most fonts, numeric for multiple master)
- Other miscellaneous multiple master axes
- Italics off/on
- Kerning off/on
- Ligatures on/normal/maximal (eg ct ligature in some fonts)
- Tracking (ie letterspace)
- Small caps
- Alternate glyphs, font specific (eg a swash variant)
- Underline (ugh!)
- Vertical displacement (ie for subscripts and superscripts)
It would probably be best to implement attributes using some kind of extensible tag mechanism. I'm tempted to just use XML for the whole thing, but that might make it harder to handle queries back.
This section needs to get filled in with more detail.
A digression on virtual fonts
I see three applications where virtual fonts really help.
First, I think it's far better to represent small capitals as an attribute rather than a font change. Standard PostScript practice is to include small caps only in a separate "expert" font. Switching back and forth between the regular and expert fonts is a pain at best, and a serious problem when switching to a regular font that does not have a separate small caps font - in the latter case, using a font attribute just causes "false" small caps to be used (i.e. regular capitals set smaller and relatively a little wider).
Second, the standard Adobe encoding only encodes the fi and fl ligatures. Others, including ff, ffi, and ffl, are included in the separate expert font. It shouldn't be any harder to use these.
Third, when mixing Roman and non-Roman scripts, it would be very handy to have a single unified virtual font that covered both scripts, even though it would be implemented as more than one low-level font.
Virtual fonts also open an expansion path, for example for fonts with more than one color, or fonts rendered using images. In these cases, the font may not be tied directly to a traditional PostScript font at all.
Finally, virtual fonts abstract away from a specific font format. They may, for example, provide a consistent interface for using TrueType fonts as well.
Incremental vs. static rendering, or, the Caanvas
The print architecture as described above is geared towards rendering static pages. It is not good for maintaining a highly incremental display.
The primary challenge of incremental display is to compute the minimal region on the display that needs to be repainted, then traverse only that part of the data structure representing the page. To do this effectively requires detailed knowledge of the geometry of the page elements.
I currently believe that the best course of action is to go ahead with the Caanvas according more or less to the existing plan, but to make it interoperate easily with the printing subsystem.
At a minimum, there will be a printing context for dumping into a Caanvas. In addition, all Caanvas objects will contain methods for painting themselves into a printing context. And, of course, the actual capabilities of Caanvas objects should match the printing methods quite closely.
The preferred method of obtaining an on-screen print preview will be to dump into a Caanvas printing context, then displaying the resulting Caanvas as a Gtk widget. This will handily support scrolling and zooming without any additional intervention of the application.
The direct Caanvas API's will continue to be based more on self-contained data structures rather than implicit state, so as to make the manipulation and editing of the Caanvas object tree easier, and also to support fast computation of "deltas" as objects change. Nonetheless, the conversion between Caanvas data structures and printing methods will remain simple.
A number of extension paths come to mind immediately. It is important to get the basic printing functionality to work well first, but it is worth planning for a number of future extensions.
The Caanvas currently supports partially-transparent colors, as well as full RGBA images. However, PostScript does not. What's needed is a way to render pages containing transparency efficiently in PostScript. Such a task is difficult but not impossible
A sorted display list file format
The best possible printing performance can be obtained using a sorted display list file format. This is also the file format that's best to spool.
Conceptually, a sorted display list consists of a list of elements, each with an associated layer code and bounding box. The bounding box is guaranteed to enclose all successive painting methods.
In an efficient sorted display list, the bounding box starts out enclosing the page, then shrinks as rapidly as possible towards the bottom of the page. Thus, data can be sent to the printer as the file is parsed. By contrast, with PostScript, it is not possible to send the first byte of data to the printer until the last element is handled, because it's always possible that the last element paints the first pixel.
This is not to be undertaken lightly, however.
For color matching, the Gnome printing model should use ICC transforms. It should be possible to associate an ICC profile with the printer, and, in addition, it should be possible to specify an ICC profile for each image. For many images, no ICC profile is available, and the image can be assumed to be in sRGB.
To adequately support prepress, the printing model must at a bare minimum directly support a CMYK color space, as well as the appropriate ICC transforms.
However, doing prepress correctly also requires control over screening, support for trapping, and a host of other tricky things. It would also make sense to support more than four colors at this point, as well.
Rendering non-Roman scripts correctly is difficult. Issues include bidirectional text, placement of diacriticals, infinitely more complex ligature rules, and the need to handle very large fonts well (a typical CJK font is 3-5 megabytes).
Document Structuring Convention
One area of fairly high priority is to get Document Structuring Convention properly supported in the resulting PostScript files. To do this efficiently requires a few additional methods, especially for specifying at the beginning the number of pages and the list of fonts used.
On the other side is the ability to import Encapsulated PostScript files. For outputting to PostScript, these can be included inline. For screen display, it's probably best to invoke GhostScript to render the document.
In this section, I muse on how the preceding specification will be best implemented. I treat each printing context separately.
This section covers generation of PostScript to a file.
For the most part, printing to PostScript is just a question of writing the appropriate printf statements for each of the methods. The one tricky area is to download the fonts to the printer before they're needed.
As we add extensions (mostly for transparency), the PostScript output method will become less and less trivial.
Direct rendering to a buffer
One of the other modes that will be supported is direct rendering to a buffer. This is done using the graphics primitives currently being developed for gfonted and the Caanvas.
This is not, however, the best approach for printing to a color inkjet printer. Keep in mind than an RGB buffer covering an 8x10 print area at 720 dpi is about 124 MB.
To solve this problem, display list techniques will be used instead.
Rendering to the Caanvas
One of the more efficient modes of operation will be to render into the Caanvas, effectively creating a display list, then use the Caanvas architecture to render to the screen or actual printer.
Essentially, each fill, stroke, image, or show method invocation becomes a Caanvas object. Each concat or clip method invocation causes a new node in the grouping tree, while gsave and grestore control the structure of the tree.
When the page is stored as a display list, it is much easier to efficiently implement repaint of exposed areas, as well as to support scrolling. In addition, zooming of a display list can be implemented without any work from the application side.
The Caanvas architecture is also one of the better ways of managing output to color inket printers. The simple "band" technique of rendering long narrow strips, then sending those to the printer, should work best.
The display list approach has one serious drawback: the entire page must be stored in memory, more likely than not duplicating structures stored by the application.
Rendering to non-PostScript laser printers
Here, the main issue is rendering plain text efficiently. In general, for a display list consisting of mostly plain text, the most efficient course of action is to render each glyph actually used in the document, send those to the printer, then simply invoke the glyphs as the display list is traversed.
For images and more complex graphics, this optimization is irrelevant, and it's best to just render the entire page as a bitmap and send it to the printer.
A concept: image callbacks
One way to deal with the memory usage issues of a large display list is to represent images as callbacks to the application rather than big buffers of pixels. Then, whenever image data is needed, the rendering engine (be it PostScript or whatever) calls the callback, passing in a bounding box and a scaling factor (possibly an entire transformation matrix). This technique also supports low-resolution images for screen display as well as high-resolution images for PostScript output.
There should probably be a "free" call of the callback to indicate that the printing subsystem no longer requires the image data and will not call the callback again.
This technique addresses the main drawback of the display list architecture. The extra complexity is almost certainly worth it.
Printing to color inkjets
We've already covered most of the performance issues, but I'll go over printing to a color inkjet in slightly more detail.
The application starts by getting a "color inkjet" print context. This context dumps the page elements into a display list, as described above.
Upon the showpage method invocation, the display list is complete. The print driver begins to render the page, one band at a time.
A typical band size would be the page width (about 5000 pixels for 7 inches at 720 dpi) by about 64 pixels tall, and 3 or 4 planes deep (depending on whether the page model is RGB or CMYK). This buffer is about a megabyte.
For each band, the print driver traverses the display list. Hopefully, most objects can be culled out using bounding box computations. After traversing the display list, the driver has in hand about a megabyte worth of raw image pixels. It then halftones these (using error diffusion) and writes the halftoned pixels (using the printer's native escape codes) to a temporary file.
When the print context is closed, the print driver invokes lpr on the resulting temporary file.
For future work, the temporary file should be bypassed and there should be some way to start the paper moving as soon as the display list is in hand. | <urn:uuid:311ef531-d8f5-4e10-9b94-a88ba3f04454> | CC-MAIN-2014-10 | http://www.levien.com/gnome/print-arch.html | 2014-03-09T04:13:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-10/segments/1393999671637/warc/CC-MAIN-20140305060751-00061-ip-10-183-142-35.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.877823 | 5,324 |

Eric Jaworski, Ocean Lakes High School Spanish teacher and world languages department chairperson, has been selected by the Foreign Language Association of Virginia (FLAVA) as the winner of the 2018 David Cox FLAVA Award for Excellence in Foreign Language Teaching, K-12.
According to the FLAVA website, the award recognizes a foreign language educator in grades K-12 who has demonstrated excellence in foreign language instruction and whose nomination may be forwarded as the FLAVA candidate to regional associations’ competitions for Teacher of the Year.
Jaworski has been teaching Spanish at Ocean Lakes High School (OLHS) since 1992 and has a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish from Old Dominion University and a Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction from Averett University.
“My first passion was music,” wrote Jaworski in a personal statement for the award. “My parents hoped I would one day be a concert pianist; but, somehow along the way, I acquired a passion for another kind of music: the music of language and culture. As a child I remember hearing my grandmother speak Polish, my mother’s best friend speak Italian, and my childhood friend’s mother speak Spanish; all was music to my ears. …I wanted to join in the symphony of the world; I wanted to be able to speak another language. When I took Spanish in middle school, I immediately fell in love.”
As a Spanish teacher, Jaworski is encouraging other students to fall in love with world languages.
“As a military child, I have taken Spanish in four different schools with five different teachers,” wrote one OLHS student in a recommendation letter submitted to FLAVA. “Mr. Jaworski’s teaching methods are not the typical classroom experience of lectures, taking notes, and filling out worksheets. [He] believes that the best way to learn a language is to hear it, read it, and practice it. He keeps class engaging and fun…[and] he connects students to an enormous number of resources.”
In her letter of recommendation for the award, Jennifer Carson, VBCPS coordinator of K-12 world languages, wrote: “I have observed many of his classes, and in each one, he remained in Spanish all of the time and promoted a similarly high level of student language. Adroitly balancing context with visuals, prior knowledge, and gestures, Mr. Jaworski artfully engages students, often very early in the morning, with ideas that raise the level of discourse and cognition.”
Jaworski will be recognized during an awards dinner held at the annual FLAVA Fall Conference in October.

Fantastic scientific discoveries have been enjoyed by students in Year 4.
They have been learning about science through exploration, experiments and demonstrations.
The students have created electrical circuits and worked out how to transfer energy to make buzzers, lights and fans work, and used the scientific method to perform a volcano experiment.
Students also created their own skate park and in the process learned how energy transforms from one type to another. They created some incredible charcoal sketches of energy and worked to measure and calculate the area and perimeter of The Woods.
The studies have led to huge steps forward in their knowledge.
Science is an important part of the PYP curriculum at our school, and builds on students’ natural curiosity for learning. The subject helps develop a love for life-long learning, as well as providing students with the skills and knowledge they will need as they progress through school. | <urn:uuid:91ee1bfe-55f0-4fd7-a54b-fda93393fc77> | CC-MAIN-2019-51 | https://www.ichk.edu.hk/science-learning-2/ | 2019-12-08T16:23:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-51/segments/1575540511946.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20191208150734-20191208174734-00281.warc.gz | en | 0.975785 | 177 |

Every business owner needs to look for ways big and small to make their company run more quickly and more efficiently. In this way, you can save time and money, as well as valuable resources, while driving up your profit margins. But what steps should you be taking to make your business run smoothly every day? Check out the tips below to get started.
Single Sign-On, also referred to as SSO, is a great way to eliminate the time-consuming process of needing to authenticate as you move between different apps. Every one of your employees can make use of SSO when they use any web or mobile apps that are hosted in the cloud or hosted by your own business. Take SSO solutions provider ProofID as an example of one of the products that you can use in your company every day. With the right SSO provider, you can have the best combination of user experience and security to get more done in a shorter amount of time.
Customer Relationship Management Software
Another wise investment would be customer relationship management (CRM) software. This will give you the tools necessary to control all of the communications between your business and your clients. In this way, you and your employees will never drop the ball when it comes to keeping your customers—especially your loyal customers—happy and coming back for more. This could lead to increased sales and more satisfied customers with less effort on your part.
Use Free Cloud Solutions
Your employees work on a lot of different projects every day in order to keep your company going strong and they often have to send files back and forth to each other, making revisions all along the way. This can be time-consuming, as well as take up a lot of space on your email server. So rather than sticking with the old-school method of emailing updates between employees and making notes in files, why not use one of the free cloud services that are available? These include Dropbox and Google Drive as a couple of popular examples. You can give and restrict access for security, as needed, and you can track changes a lot more easily too. Plus, workers from remote locations can access these files with greater ease, without having to worry about having the files on their drives everywhere they go.
Outsource Where Necessary
A final way to make your company more efficient is by outsourcing the tasks that your staff can’t handle on their own. The last thing that you want to do is give your workers too much to do, causing them to hate their job and actually become less efficient overall. So, if you need writing services, design work, or even IT support, consider outsourcing these tasks to qualified pros.
With the strategies and tools above, you can take small steps towards making your business a lot more efficient every day. Before you know it, you will be able to save money that you can reinvest into your brand to help it continue to grow. | <urn:uuid:d3362bdb-4e43-4057-8bb7-c7d0923051cf> | CC-MAIN-2018-13 | http://www.imafish.co.uk/blog/small-steps-make-your-business-run-faster | 2018-03-21T22:04:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-13/segments/1521257647706.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20180321215410-20180321235410-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.96953 | 589 |
For Immediate Release
October 19, 2006
Press Briefing by Tony Snow
White House Conference Center Briefing Room
10:22 A.M. EDT
MR. SNOW: Good morning, welcome. Let me read out what's going on today, and then I'll take your questions. The President has had his normal briefings. Next on the schedule he is going to be heading to the Sherwood-Pennsylvania Victory Committee Reception in La Plume, Pennsylvania. That's at 2:00 p.m. At 5:40 p.m. in Richmond, Virginia, a remarks at Friends of George Allen Reception, and will return to the White House at about 7:50 p.m.
As I mentioned to some of you yesterday, talking informally, the President had a call yesterday with President Hosni Mubarak. It lasted 15 minutes. The topics were Syria, Sudan, Darfur and Israeli-Palestinian affairs. The President made clear his view that Syria is continuing to interfere in Lebanese politics, and is also standing in the way of progress in Israeli-Palestinian affairs through its support of Hamas. They also discussed how to make progress in stopping violence in Darfur. President Mubarak explained his recent conversations with Sudanese President Bashir. President Bush noted that his special envoy, Andrew Natsios, will be visiting Egypt within the next few days. And the President thanked President Mubarak for his continued leadership on these issues.
Also, President Bush will welcome President-elect Felipe Calderon of Mexico to the White House on November 9th of this year. Mexico is an important hemispheric partner of the United States, and the President looks forward to meeting with President-elect Calderon prior to his inauguration on December 1st. President Bush and President-elect will discuss a range of global, regional and bilateral issues, including ways to strengthen cooperation between the United States and Mexico, and enhance competitiveness, free trade, economic growth and security in North America.
Q When is he here?
MR. SNOW: The 9th.
Q Does the President still think that Iraq is a winning issue for Republicans, and can you elaborate on what he was talking about yesterday in the Stephanopoulos interview about linking -- comparing it with the Tet Offensive?
MR. SNOW: Well, let's back up. We'll do the Tet Offensive question first. That comparison was made by Tom Friedman. That was a question about a column that Tom Friedman wrote. And the President was making a point that he's made before, which is that terrorists try to exploit pictures and try to use the media as conduits for influencing public opinion in the United States. And as Lieutenant General Caldwell said today in his briefing in Baghdad, it is possible, although we don't have a clear pathway into the minds of terrorists, it is possible that they are trying to use violence right now as a way of influencing the elections.
First question again?
Q Well, let's stay on that for a second. The Tet Offensive was successful for the Viet Cong and the Vietnamese in the --
MR. SNOW: It was successful from a propaganda point of view, as history has subsequently demonstrated. The negative reports were wrong --
Q Right. Do you have any fears that that's going to happen with Iraq?
MR. SNOW: No. The important thing to remember is that the President is determined it's not going to happen with Iraq, because you have a President who is determined to win. And the strategy is a threefold strategy that involves security, economics and political reconciliation, working with the Iraqis. And we'll continue to make adjustments as necessary to pursue victory.
But the one thing that nobody should have any doubt about is that we're going to win.
Q And the first part of the question was, winning issue.
MR. SNOW: The question Americans are going to have to ask themselves is who is leading on this? You've got any number of Democratic positions: strategic redeployment, partition, get out right now, cut off funding -- it's difficult to divine anybody who is taking a consistent or coherent leadership position, other than complaining about the President.
On the other hand, what the President has is he talks constantly about the importance of victory and the importance of achieving victory. We think that's a -- when people start taking a look at the war on terror and who is not only serious about what's going on today, but also the future, I think that the President has by far the stronger hand and, in addition, talking about a freedom agenda which provides a much larger strategic framework for viewing a world that is filled with challenges.
Q A couple of things. The President always talks about his confidence that Republicans will retain the House and Senate. Earlier this week, the Vice President, in his interview with Rush Limbaugh, indicated that there was a "good shot" -- interesting choice of words -- a "good shot" with respect to the House. Is there opening a little door there to acknowledge that perhaps things aren't going as well as you --
MR. SNOW: No. No. But that was a good line. Bada-boom, she'll be here all week. (Laughter.)
Q Also, with the President today appearing with George Allen and Sherwood, candidates who have had some difficulties, controversy surrounding them, is the President at all concerned about being, by association, harmed by those controversies -- the racial insensitivity, the extramarital affairs?
MR. SNOW: No.
Q No hesitation to campaign for them?
MR. SNOW: He's campaigning for them.
Q Any downside?
MR. SNOW: I don't think so. When a President goes and campaigns for candidates he's there to help them, and, no, I don't think there's a down side. I'm not going to go any further
Q Back to the Tet Offensive for a second. I just want to clarify one thing about that, because as it's understood retrospectively, Tet becomes a sort of shorthand for the point at which the Vietnam War changed.
MR. SNOW: And I don't want -- that is not an analogy we're trying to make. Again, this was a comment about a Tom Friedman column. Tom is the guy who introduced Tet. What we have said -- and it's very limited -- is the attempt to use images as a way of influencing public opinion. We do not think that there has been a flip-over point, but more importantly, from the standpoint of the government and the standpoint of this administration, we are going to continue pursuing victory aggressively --
Q Let me follow on that, because The Washington Times says in a front-page story today that the administration is preparing for a "course correction."
MR. SNOW: That's a bunch of hooey. I mean, it seems to be a collection of actually old hooey brought into a piece of new hooey. (Laughter.) So, I mean, you get -- I don't know where that came from, but it didn't come from the White House.
Q And just to follow on hooey, the things that are raised in this hooey-filled article, such as the division of Iraq --
MR. SNOW: Yes, partition -- non-starter.
Q Non-starter? Kay Bailey Hutchison raised it yesterday --
MR. SNOW: Again, as I said, we have, in fact, considered -- we consider lots of things. We've thought about partition, for a series of reasons --
Q Phased withdrawal?
MR. SNOW: -- again, you don't -- you withdraw when you win. Phased withdrawal is a way of saying, regardless of what the conditions are on the ground, we're going to get out of Dodge.
Q The 5 percent solution --
MR. SNOW: No.
MR. SNOW: Non-starter.
Q Are these ideas that are now becoming sort of leaked throughout Washington about possibilities for the ISG, are they being analyzed or assessed by the White House as they pop up --
MR. SNOW: No, I think what you're seeing here -- I'm not even sure that they're being assessed by the ISG. Again, what's happening is different groups have been tasked -- ISG, Iraq Study Group -- to look in all different ways about Iraq and how we proceed forward.
A couple of points to make: First, they're not reporting to us; they're not pre-clearing things with us. It's very important to realize that, because we understand that the independence of the ISG is an important asset, and we do intend to make use of it because we're interested in seeing what they have to say. The President is always interested in differing points of view, especially from smart and well informed people.
Having said that, the idea of trying to react to leaks of documents that have not been circulated, at least as far as I can tell, among the ISG at this point is way premature. On the other hand, when there are debates and things are offered up by people at the Pentagon or the National Security Council or elsewhere, there are debates about how best to proceed. It happens all the time, because in a time of war you have shifting conditions, and you do have to adjust. That's the only way in which you can continue to pursue victory.
So we certainly are always considering new ideas, and we will reconsider old ideas to see if we think suddenly they have currency. But the ones mentioned in today's Washington Times do not fit that description.
Q The best intelligence on when you may have something to assess is well after the election?
MR. SNOW: You're going to have to ask -- I think it's best to talk to Jim Baker and Lee Hamilton because they know the timetables on that.
Q Talk about how this might be released. Can you give us any information on the Baker report and how that might work?
MR. SNOW: I really don't. No, because again they're independent. It's up to them. I think the best thing -- just give Jim and Lee a call because I don't know.
Q Can we run by you the idea of adding many more troops into Iraq?
MR. SNOW: Again, if -- the President has always said if the commanders on the ground tell them they need -- if they need more, then he will consider it. That has not been a recommendation that he's received.
Q What if Jim Baker and Lee Hamilton make that recommendation?
MR. SNOW: Well, again, it's something that we will study. But let me -- the point I made before --
Q So you're not saying that one is out? While you're saying these others are out, it's a possibility that you could --
MR. SNOW: Well, I don't know --
Q -- add a massive influx of --
MR. SNOW: What you're asking me -- what you're asking me about is just hypotheticals in the future. Why don't we wait to see what the group has to say? Maybe they're sending you documents, but we're not seeing them, Martha.
And I think rather than trying to sort of handicap what may or may not pass muster -- as you know, there have been suggestions in the past about more troops. And the President said to General Casey, do you need more? And he says, no. And that is -- that's the point he's making --
Q No, but I just think that you're quickly dismissing several ideas here that were on the front page, but you're not dismissing this idea and what should we do --
MR. SNOW: Well, because what you should take from it is, for instance, ideas like partition had been studied. What you're talking now about are tactical adjustments that may be made along the way. And I'm not saying yes and I'm not saying no because I don't know. What you end up doing, again, is you respond to the people on the ground. You give them what they need and what they think they need. Ultimately, as you know, the most important thing is to have Iraqi troops who are able to accomplish the mission. But that's taking time and we're working on it.
Q Can you define again today what a win in Iraq is?
MR. SNOW: An Iraq that can defend, sustain and govern itself.
Q And U.S. troops will be there, you said they won't withdraw until you win?
MR. SNOW: Until we have reached the conclusion that the mission has been accomplished, and that is that you're going to have Iraqi security forces and police forces that are up to the job; that you are going to have the democracy that is able to sustain, govern and defend itself; and the Iraqis will have stood up.
But if you're asking for precise metrics on that, they don't exist, as you know.
Q Can I just do one more quick on Iraqi and a couple of statements from an interview that Diane Sawyer did in North Korea?
MR. SNOW: Okay, well let's -- all right.
Q Okay, can I just finish on Iraq then?
MR. SNOW: Yes.
Q Yesterday, Maliki asked that an aide to al Sadr, who once had a murder warrant, be released. And the U.S. apparently released him, even though they detained him, thinking he was causing sectarian violence. Is that the kind of justice you're looking for?
MR. SNOW: No, I think also if you take a look at the conversations, as you know, Prime Minister Maliki met yesterday with Muqtada al Sadr and with Ali al Sistani, and one of the things that they have been talking about is, in fact, suppressing violence. You've seen the Prime Minister taking action; he's moved some people around at the ministry of the interior, they've demobilized a police unit. I think it's pretty clear that Prime Minister Maliki is moving aggressively to go after sectarian violence.
I'm not in any position to judge the release of the cleric.
Q But by having al Sadr say, release this guy --
MR. SNOW: I'm not sure -- you know, there may be a lot more that's gone on and I just don't know. I'm not going to render judgment because I'm not competent to.
Q How seriously are you going to take this report from Baker?
MR. SNOW: We're going to take it seriously. But, once again, it's an advisory report. But you absolutely take it seriously. Why don't we wait to see what comes out of this? I mean, I think there is hot speculation, and, obviously, a lot of times in Washington it's like you hand something off to a commission and then you follow exactly what the commission does. The President is going to do what he thinks is going to help us move toward and ultimately achieve victory in Iraq and in the war on terror.
And the other important thing is -- and this is a real service I think that this commission provides -- is an opportunity for real bipartisan work on it, because there have been too many times where it's been dug in. And so we look forward to seeing what's going on. You've heard Lee Hamilton say, I'm doing this not as a Democrat, and you've heard Jim Baker say, I'm doing this not as a Republican. These are very serious people, and I think it's worth taking a look at their work product and find out what they develop.
The other thing to note is that, also, the key recommendations, they are going to be consensual, everybody is going to be voting for them. So I think it will be the case that they have worked hard to try to build a consensus across party and ideological lines on ways to proceed. And I think, especially for that reason, it deserves real strong consideration.
Q Tony, what does it say about the trouble that the Republican Party is in right now that the President is having to go out and campaign today in what should have been two safe Republican races?
MR. SNOW: This is a close election contest. On the other hand, what does it say, you've got Bill Clinton running around and campaigning for people. Does that mean Democrats are suddenly worried? I think it's important that you have a President going out and engaging. I'll tell you why we're confident about what's coming up. We think we've got better candidates, we got better issues, we got better solutions to the problems that face Americans. On a tactical level, Ken Mehlman says he's got 55 million bucks more than the Democrats have in get-out-the-vote measures. And just from my fractional experience out there, every time people read these stories that almost look like suppression efforts to bring down Republican morale, the Republicans say, man, I'm ready, I'm going to get out there and do it.
So I think it's going to be interesting to see. I think you've got a lot of reasons for people on both sides to be motivated. But for those who are trying to make up their minds right now, we're just asking, you ask yourself the question, who is really talking about a sensible way to make the economy even bigger and stronger than it is, and who do you think actually has a coherent plan for winning a war on terror and doing it in a way that not only addresses Iraq, not only addresses Afghanistan, but also creates a framework for thinking about making the world safer through a freedom agenda.
Q Also on the two candidates today, does the President personally, morally, have any concerns about the controversies swirling around both men right now?
MR. SNOW: I'm just not going to comment on it.
Q As you did in the gaggle the other day, you made some comments.
MR. SNOW: Well, I just -- I think the President understands that it's important to set high standards. But the other thing the President is doing is he's going out and -- let the candidates speak for themselves on this. The President will have his say, as well.
Q Tony, could I come back to the -- answered Terry by saying, yes, you're convinced the war on terror is a winning issue for Republicans. Is Iraq, by itself?
MR. SNOW: Yes, because I think what's happened is, the idea of trying to take out Iraq, and say, we're going to leave there, but we're going to win the war on terror; we're going to strategically withdraw, but we're doing to win; we are against a terrorist surveillance program, but we're going to win; we are opposed to the detention act, the military commissions, but we're going to win.
Q You're still tying other things in there.
MR. SNOW: That's because, I hate to tell you, but Iraq is not a standalone issue. As bin Laden has said, it's the semper fi in the war on terror. And the idea, somehow, the you could separate them from what's going on is to take a naive look at a world in which people have satellite communications, and the rest of the world watches what happens. So if, in fact, people were to draw the conclusion that the United States is going to cut and run from Iraq, don't you think Iran or --(interruption in briefing) -- let me continue. I was in the midst, before we did the planes, trains and automobiles.
So the fact is, that what goes on on the ground, and how the United States deals with these challenges has impact throughout the world, and also throughout the terror networks. So lots of luck in trying to sort of pluck that out and treat it as an isolated issue. It's not, and it's not in the words of the people who are right at the heart of the issue.
Q If that's the case, Tony, how do you ever debate the war? We hear all this "put up a solid front." How do you debate the war at all if all opposition to any component, any aspect of the war --
MR. SNOW: I didn't say that.
Q That's the suggestion.
MR. SNOW: No, the suggestion was to treat the war in isolation from the war on terror. That's different.
Q But there are people who don't believe it is a part of the war on terror. You know what --
MR. SNOW: We'll be happy to engage in the debate. I think I've laid out a lot of the arguments.
Q Two months ago when the President and Prime Minister Maliki announced the Baghdad security plan, one of the trade-offs that commanders acknowledged was more U.S. troops on the street of Baghdad would mean more U.S. casualties --
MR. SNOW: Right.
Q -- with the idea being they would eventually bring down violence in Baghdad. Two months later, U.S. casualties are very high; levels of violence in Baghdad and elsewhere in the country are just as high, if not higher. This morning, General Caldwell said that it might be time, in his words, to refocus the strategy in Baghdad. Does the White House share the assessment that it's not working?
MR. SNOW: Actually, that's -- I talked to Major General Caldwell before we came in here because his comments have been misquoted. What he said is that, the levels of violence had not been lowered in a way that met our expectations, and so what we're doing is we're adjusting to bring them down, which is what you would expect.
I mean that is a classic example of what we've been trying to talk about over and over, which is that in a time of war, you constantly reassess what you're doing, and you constantly do what you can and use your ingenuity and your flexibility to be more effective in your aims. And what you have seen is going into Baghdad, into a lot of these areas -- and it's also worth noting that it is not simply the case that our forces are the only -- are kind of sitting ducks, and they're the only ones who are taking a hit. This -- there have been a number of very effective actions against terror fighters in Baghdad and elsewhere. There have been seizures of arm caches and that sort of stuff, and that gets reported regularly.
But it is something that we anticipated going into Ramadan, but it is not something that we want to have continue forever. What we want to do is to continue to have -- to build military tactics that go after the bad guys, and at the same time, work on the political strategy.
This is why we not only had meetings yesterday with Prime Minister Maliki, Muqtada al Sadr, and Ali al Sistani, you also had the Deputy Prime Minister, Mr. Hashimi, who has lost three family members to violence, also working with Sunni forces.
So what you end up having within Iraq is not only attempts to continue to adjust the security tactics so that you can meet the ongoing challenges in Baghdad and elsewhere, but also the political conditions that are going to persuade some of the people who may have been contributing to the violence to stop committing acts of violence, to join the political process, and to build the economic opportunities that are going to let some of those who might otherwise be inclined to join terror to choose a more peaceful path.
Q But do you think that plan as it is currently constituted, the idea of having higher U.S. troop levels in Baghdad, is still a smart, tenable plan? Or does it need to be dropped or changed?
MR. SNOW: Again, I would direct tactical questions to the generals there because they're the ones that --
Q People did, and that's what led to this question. I wanted to know if the White House shared the assessment of --
MR. SNOW: The White House -- yes, the White House listens to the generals. But I would caution you against saying it's not working because that's not their view. Because what has happened is again a single line out of a briefing that ran -- let's see -- it's big print, but it was 14 pages -- in addition to probably a dozen pages of slides -- that indicated in many ways precise neighborhoods they were going into, precise actions that they had taken, successes they had had, the apprehension of members of al Qaeda and all that sort of stuff was in there.
So what our view is, we continue to support the generals in any we can, and in any way they find fitting. And we also understand that based on changing conditions in Baghdad and elsewhere, they may be asking for different things at different times and we're going to supply them; we're going to support them fully.
Q I just have one quick follow up to something you had said earlier. When you were asked about Tet, you said that the difference now was the President was determined to win. Presumably, Lyndon Johnson was just as determined to win. Obviously, the President has a lot of control, but can't control the view of an entire country and can't control all the events on the ground. Do you accept that as true, that a President can be determined to win and can still lose, all the same?
MR. SNOW: We're not going to lose. And this is a President who is going to -- is determined to see through the promise of Iraqi democracy. And I'll tell you why. The price of failure -- and you hear many Democrats say this; they understand the premise -- it is absolutely catastrophic. Because if you create a hollowed-out or unstable Iraq that will provide the -- that can provide a launching pad, a failed state that can provide a launching pad for a terror network, that also has the second largest reserve of oil on the face of the earth, you have an opportunity to create unbelievable chaos within the Middle East and elsewhere; economic pressure on the industrialized world, and at the same time fomenting terror throughout the Middle East, going after states that are beginning in their own ways to create fledgling democratic movements, stomping those out; the notion of establishing a caliphate suddenly is going to seem a lot more credible.
So there is no option here and, therefore, we will entertain no option other than to succeed and finish the job.
Q Can I just follow on that for a second? Because the last two times there have been press accounts of a general suggesting that either strategy needed to be refocused or Major Dannett saying you needed to pull the British troops out, things will appear in the paper and a couple of words, it will sound like they're suggesting some alternative strategy. And then upon further consultation, we're told they were either taken out of context --
MR. SNOW: No, no, this is our -- let me just read to you the passage here, all right, because maybe that will help. I'll just put it right in -- he says -- he's speaking of Ramadan. He says, "Violence and progress do coexist in Iraq. You can be making progress and have violence. The violence continues against security forces and innocent Iraqis during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Traditionally a time of great celebration, it has instead been a period of increased violence, not just this year, but during the past two years, as well. The violence is, indeed, disheartening. In Baghdad alone we've seen a 22-percent increase in attacks during the first three weeks of Ramadan, compared to the three weeks preceding in the preceding Ramadan. And Baghdad Operation Together Forward has made a difference in the focus areas, but has not met our overall expectations of sustaining a reduction in the levels of violence. We are working very closely with the government of Iraq to determine how best to refocus our efforts."
Now, that is a far different thing than giving the impression it's a failure, we've got to throw it all out. What he's saying is, you have seen in the focus areas they've had success, but there is violence elsewhere; you need to figure out how to deal with that. And so you work with the Iraqi government and work with the Iraqi military to address it.
Q Has any American commander ever suggested to the President that a change in tactics, if not strategy, was necessary?
MR. SNOW: Because we keep getting into this confusion, let me try to separate. Overall goals to win: The strategy is to involve three different areas, working with the Iraqis -- that would be security, economics and politics. Tactics change all the time. Generals talk about changing tactics all the time. It happens regularly. It is nothing new in a time of war. As a matter of fact, it would be a dereliction of duty if generals did not constantly adjust to the changing conditions and tactics on the ground. So that has been going on from the early days when you had a change in the way in which IEDs were employed, to the present day where you have shifting coalitions of terror activities and you also have real concern by the Iraqis of influx of foreign capital and foreign fighters. So naturally, you adjust all the time.
So the answer to your question is, Jim, it not only happens all the time, it's been going on for a very long time.
Let me get to some of the back rows, and then we'll bounce around also. Ellen.
Q You, obviously, are talking about winning the elections, and the question is -- I mean, the polls have you guys down at least in the House on several fronts. You have a political office at the White House. What is your -- other than what you just told us about economy and we're going to win --
MR. SNOW: You mean, other than talking about the important issues of peace and prosperity? Other than the things that matter most to Americans, what else?
Q You've got a little less than three weeks, you're going out, other people are going out -- what is your overall strategy to really win this?
MR. SNOW: It's real simple: Tell people the truth, lay the issues out, and then ask them, who's got something to offer.
Q Tony, two questions. Several Middle East reports have come out warning Muslims in the United States to leave because of plans for another attack. We know the government is doing what it can to prevent such attacks. What can an individual do to be prepared?
MR. SNOW: Well, first, Lester, that's about a three-week-old story. Did it just get to you guys today?
Q This is a network question.
MR. SNOW: You've got to upgrade the connections, or pay the phone bills, or something.
Q I work for a network -- no one answered --
MR. SNOW: The answer is, Americans do what we've been doing since September 11th, which is to remain vigilant. But on the other hand, the Department of Homeland Security and everybody in the government -- and local police and other organizations continue to do everything they can to proceed in the war on terror. It's one of the reasons why the President has pressed vigorously not only for the detainee provisions that were just signed into law, but a terrorist surveillance program, for ways of tracking finances of terror groups, for figuring out where they are, what they do, who they're talking to, and what they intend.
Q Do these threats mean that the terrorists are issuing them because the U.S. war on terror is being successfully prosecuted, or because they have not yet felt pressure from U.S. activities?
MR. SNOW: You'll have to ask the authors of those statements what they intended.
Q Tony, this morning Diane Sawyer interviewed North Korea General Ri Chan Bok, and in the interview, the General told Diane Sawyer a couple of things I was wondering if you could react to.
MR. SNOW: Okay.
Q He told Diane Sawyer that "the U.S. wants us to kneel down before them. We cannot agree with them. If this tension continues war cannot be avoided."
MR. SNOW: Well, several things are going on. It is not unusual for the North Koreans to use strong rhetoric. On the other hand, let me make clear to the people of North Korea and the entire world, not only do we not want North Korea to kneel down before them [sic], what we're trying to do is offer them a better deal -- better economy, more security, better relations with their neighbors, integration into the global community, as opposed to isolation. Pretty good deal.
We right now are focused on using all of our efforts on a diplomatic path to work with the government in North Korea so that they're going to do things that are going to be good for all of them. The President and Secretary Rice appreciate the efforts of the Chinese delegation that's there right now. Secretary Rice has just had some good meetings; she's just arrived in South Korea and she is now working with our allies to figure out the proper ways now to enact U.N. Security Council Resolution 1718.
So at this particular point, again, as to the central charge of trying to humiliate or bring down the -- to make them go to their knees, it's just the opposite. What we want to do is to give North Korea an opportunity to enjoy the same kinds of privileges and prosperity that are available to other nations in the region.
Q Elsewhere in the interview he complains that President Bush says things along the lines of what you're saying, that they're humiliating to North Korea, that the President tells complete lies -- "stop saying lies, that's what we're asking for."
Is there a sense, or any concern on the President's part that his rhetoric is actually making the situation worse?
MR. SNOW: No. Again, what we have tried to do in the case of the government of North Korea is not to engage in personal insults about Kim Jong-il, but to talk directly about what the government has been doing and how we're trying to work with people in the neighborhood to help out North Korea.
And, you know, there are disagreements, but also a lot of times what happens is people engage in some public diplomacy. We know that there are ongoing efforts to talk with the government. It's one of the reasons why we have the Chinese and the Japanese and the Russians and the South Koreans in the process, because they not only have longer and closer ties, they've got greater influence and we're hoping they succeed.
Q The stakes have seemed to rise in the last few days. The President said to George yesterday there could be dire consequences -- he's using the generals talking about war. Is this the verge of war?
MR. SNOW: No.
Q Tony, I just want to be clear, because you seem to be -- and correct me if I'm wrong -- you seem to be reluctant to repeat what you said on Friday, when you said "George Allen is not a bigot and the President absolutely supports his candidacy. Mr. Sherwood has admitted to what has gone on. The President believes we're all sinners and has asked for forgiveness and, in this case, he supports his campaign." Do you want to retract any of that? Has the President changed his mind?
MR. SNOW: No, I stick with all of it. It's still true.
Q You just don't want to repeat it?
MR. SNOW: Unlike you, I didn't have a blackberry of my gaggle transcript on it. But it's now read into the record and it still stands.
Q Thank you.
MR. SNOW: All right. Thank you.

My company's marketo instance has some custom objects that they created which contain information that must be sent in marketo emails.
One of the custom objects in question is our own custom Company object where each user in marketo can be linked to multiple company custom objects.
The information in this custom object are synced in from our company's system in batches of 300 custom object instances at a time. Because all the custom objects for each user are synced at once in a batch of 300, the updated at values in each of the custom objects are the exact same value. The updated at date value seems to only track precision up to a minute.
My problem is that, from what I gather, when you are triggering smart campaigns using the custom object updated trigger, you are unable to get the data of the custom object that actually triggered the campaign.
It seems like the $triggerObject in velocity is not accessible. I looked for a workaround for this issue and it seems that the consensus is that you have to loop through the list of most recently updated custom objects for a marketo user and sort the objects by the most recent update at date. However, this is where my problem occurs. If all the custom objects in that list have the exact same updated at value in marketo, how am I supposed to know which of these custom objects triggered the smart campaign in order to put its data into the smart campaign's email. There seems to be no way to link the object that triggered the campaign with an object in the list when multiple objects are updated at the exact same time.

While we've obsessed with how oligarchs and sheiks are snapping up some of the most pricey properties in Britain's capital, new data from estate agents EJ Harris show that super-rich students are hoovering up luxury rental property across London every year.
But these aren't overseas students snapping up affordable housing - they're renting out places that most families would spend their lifetime trying to afford.
According to the group, over 107,000 international students studying in London contribute £600 million ($924 million) in rental income to the capital's rental market every year with the wealthiest Chinese, Russian and Malaysian students spending around £72,000 ($110,850) per annum on properties in the most sought after addresses in London.
That's nearly triple the average British wage of £26,500 ($40,823) per year.
So what makes these properties so expensive to rent?

A Christmas movie in early November? That’s almost like having a Halloween movie released in August. If I didn’t know any better I’d think the Hollywood marketing machine had lost their concept of time. But since I know they haven’t, my guess is that they wanted to start the movie buzz early and get a second wind (read payday) when the actual holiday rolls around. And just like Halloween, Fred Claus is following the same principle (as have many other holiday movies).
This decision isn’t such a bad one either. After all who wants to wait to see a movie that looks to combine the childlike innocence of Elf with the attitude of Bad Santa? And who better to combine the comedy of Will Ferrell and the crudeness of Billy Bob Thornton than Vince Vaughn? I can’t think of anyone else I’d rather see try.
Vaughn plays Fred, the older brother of everyone’s favorite fat man in a red suit, Santa Claus (Paul Giamatti). Fred, it turns out, is also the black sheep of the family; a man consumed with himself and out to score a quick buck any way he can. But his luck takes a turn for the worse when his girlfriend Wanda (Rachel Weisz) dumps him and he needs cash to get bailed out of the local lockup. Enter younger brother St. Nick to the rescue. However, instead of just handing the money over to his brother, Fred will have to earn it by helping the elves with determining who has been naughty or nice. Fred, as you can guess, is less than enthused with the arrangement.
Upon his arrival at the North Pole, Fred begins to impart his will on the town and all that is sacred to it (why he didn’t push his will on the lovely Charlene (Elizabeth Banks) who greets him is beyond me though). This chaos is bad enough on its own, but the timing couldn’t be worse. That’s because efficiency expert Clyde Northcutt (Kevin Spacey) shows up looking for any reason to shut down the operation. As expected, things go from bad to worse as Fred becomes more erratic as he becomes more disenfranchised with the whole situation, falling right into the snare of Clyde’s evil plans.
Now why exactly a company would want to shut down Christmas isn’t clearly explained and neither is why no one is screwing Charlene (she’s wearing a mini skirt and low cut top for Christ’s sake!), but who cares, the gist of Fred Claus is to let Vaughn riff and improvise on his own or against Giamatti’s straight man. Mostly it works – watching Vaughn fight off a dozen street Santas and line dance with a hundred midgets to Elvis’s Rubberneckin’ are both good for a hearty laugh. Seeing Giamatti and Vaughn wrestle, not so good. Rounding it all out is a great performance by Spacey. Just looking at him made me miserable – he was the perfect Scrooge (or Grinch depending on your flavor).
What more needs to be said? Fred Claus is good all around film which, in the end, spreads some nice holiday cheer while reinforcing the concept of family bond. Christmas has arrived in November. I don’t have a problem with that and neither should you. | <urn:uuid:b22619d8-800b-48f0-aad9-878620b60d2e> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://thecriticalcritics.com/reviews/fred-claus/ | 2019-06-27T04:07:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628000613.45/warc/CC-MAIN-20190627035307-20190627061307-00170.warc.gz | en | 0.965482 | 704 |

When selecting which diet is right for you, it's important to look at the big picture. As the percentage of Americans that are overweight seems to rise on an annual basis, the amount of supposed experts that think they can combat this problem rises with their own diet program continue to come out of the woodwork. Their claim is that their quick weight loss diets will help you shed those extra pounds almost effortlessly. However, these rapid weight loss diets are rarely what their founders make them out to be.
For starters, while these methods can help you shed pounds quickly, they rarely have the long-term effects that you would like. More often than not, while you will find that they shed pounds rapidly when you're on the diet, those same pounds can come back with a vengeance once you're off of it. This happens for two primary reasons.
When you try a rapid weight loss diet, many of the pounds that you're losing are water weight. The goal is to get the body to metabolize and burn body fat, though. Most studies suggest that people on rapid weight loss diets tend to lose between two and three pounds of water weight per pound of fat that they lose. Once you're off of that diet, the water weight can come back very quickly.
Secondly, the human body has a way of adjusting its metabolism to battle a drop off in caloric intake. By using a rapid weight loss diet, you're drastically reducing your caloric intake immediately. Once the metabolism has dropped significantly enough, the body will make sure that it doesn't burn off calories as quickly to maintain its weight. At that point, no matter how hard a you try, you're unlikely to continue losing weight because of the reduced metabolism. This is another reason people on rapid weight loss diets tend to lose weight quickly when they first start the program, but gain it (and often more) back weeks later.
While gaining the weight back after a rapid weight loss diet is half the battle, though, the content of the weight that they're losing is equally important. Without proper exercise to go along with the diet, you will soon find out that a significant portion of the weight you're losing is not fat, but muscle. Even in extreme cases, quick weight loss diets will help you shed four to five pounds of fat per week. If you're losing twenty pounds, though, while a considerable amount of that is water weight, you're also losing weight in other areas where you don't want to lose it. Most rapid weight loss diets focus more on cutting into your calorie intake right away than anything else, which means you're not the only one starving... your muscles are, too.
If the potential to gain the weight back and the loss of muscle tone isn't enough to lead to other safer options than a rapid weight loss diet, the potential to develop health concerns should be. The most common medical side effect of a rapid weight loss diet is the likelihood that you will develop gall stones. When you're losing so much weight in such a short period of time, the contractions of the gall bladder tend to shift, meaning that many of the methods used in rapid weight loss diets, such as going longer periods without eating, can have a negative effect.
Another problem that rapid weight loss diets can lead to is loose skin. This is, of course, an obvious side effect. The skin is fully developed around the muscles and the fat that you've stored over time, but it can hang when you've suddenly lost a significant amount of weight in a short period of time.
Finally, rapid weight loss diets can even lead to eating disorders. By suggesting you occasionally starve yourself or limit yourself to certain food groups, these quick weight loss diets often begin with a short term use of anorexia. However, quick weight loss diets can also tend to push towards bulimia, often giving you urges to binge and purge.
While rapid weight loss diets certainly tend to serve immediate needs, they're definitely not a long-term solution if you're looking to shed a lot of weight in the long run. Simply put, quick weight loss diets usually just lead to bigger problems down the road. | <urn:uuid:0017a9b8-35ef-4d55-9692-93274a0be8c9> | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | http://rplowman.blogspot.com/2013/05/rapid-weight-loss-diet-program.html | 2018-10-18T03:59:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-43/segments/1539583511642.47/warc/CC-MAIN-20181018022028-20181018043528-00174.warc.gz | en | 0.971782 | 841 |

Spotify Test Drive Higher Prices In Scandinavia
Having accrued an impressive number of subscribers, Spotify is planning to hike up prices on its home turf, increasing the cost of its family plan in Scandinavia by 14%. Whether this test will amount to anything, or be rolled out anywhere remains to be seen, however.
Guest post by Bobby Owsinski of Music 3.0
Now that it has a healthy number of subscribers, Spotify would like to raise its prices and the first place it’s trying is in its own back yard. The company is planning on increasing the price of its family plan by 14% in Scandinavia, according to Bloomberg.
Since music streaming has the most penetration in Scandinavia (Norway, Finland, Sweden) and has been there the longest, this seems like a logical choice for a test market. Spotify would love to raise its prices worldwide to keep Wall Street happy, and that’s not exactly something that either artists or record labels would fight. Higher prices mean more revenue for everyone, but that also means that consumers might be unhappy enough to have a look at another streaming network instead.
While it might not be feasible to raise the $9.99 per month individual price, the family plan is a place where an increase might be more transparent. Any increase short of doubling the price still makes the plan look like a bargain.
Both Spotify and the record labels have had recent issues with the family plans of most services, since many times the plan is spread around to multiple users not in a family who could easily be paying the individual subscription. The argument has been that it’s difficult to police exactly who’s in a family anymore, since not all families live together and some want extended family members in their plans. An increase in prices might make up for some of this shortfall.
Another aspect is that other streaming services like Netflix has been able to increase its prices 4 times in the last 5 years while Spotify has not raised them once.
Of course, one of the problems is that all streaming services have pretty much the same catalog of songs, so if one service becomes too expensive it’s pretty easy for a customer to switch to another and not lose too much in the process. | <urn:uuid:0e677d31-d292-446f-b287-5d74b04cdb49> | CC-MAIN-2020-24 | https://www.hypebot.com/hypebot/2019/08/spotify-test-drive-higher-prices-in-scandinavia.html | 2020-05-27T10:30:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-24/segments/1590347392142.20/warc/CC-MAIN-20200527075559-20200527105559-00294.warc.gz | en | 0.967572 | 455 |
Tissue that is transplanted from one person to another contains antigens that are foreign to the host. This is because all tissue cells, with the exception of mature red blood cells, are genetically marked with a characteristic combination of histocompatibility antigens on the membrane surface. The greater the variance in these antigens between the donor and the recipient in a transplant, the greater will be the chance of transplant rejection. Prior to organ transplantation, therefore, the "tissue type" of the recipient is matched to that of potential donors. Since the person's white blood cells are used for this purpose, histocom-patibility antigens in humans are also called human leukocyte antigens (HLAs). They are also called MHC molecules, after the name of the genes that code for them.
The histocompatibility antigens are proteins that are coded by a group of genes called the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), located on chromosome number 6. These four genes are labeled A, B, C, and D. Each of them can code for only one protein in a given individual, but because each gene has multiple alleles (forms), this protein can be different in different people. Two people, for example, could both have antigen A3, but one might have antigen B17 and the other antigen B21.
The closer two people are related, the closer the match between their histocompatibility antigens.

I decided to take my family to a magic show the other day.
It was at this place with a sizable tent and they had a pretty good cooling system working to keep the tent nice and cool.
The kids seemed to really be enjoying the magic show and I thought the guy was pretty good at the magic he was doing. Well, I felt bad for the guy when the cooling system decided to fail in the midst of his show. It started heating up in the tent and then people started heckling the poor guy. It really wasn’t his fault the A/C equipment decided to fail, but people were asking if he could work his magic to get the A/C system working again. Somebody asked if his magic trick was to make everybody sweat at the same time. We actually ended up getting a 50% refund for the show because we were able to enjoy half the show and the other half had to be canceled because everybody was too uncomfortable with no working A/C. I actually went to the guy and told him that it wasn’t his fault and I thought the people there were being too disrespectful. He seemed to appreciate my words and he actually gave us free tickets to the next show. He promised that the A/C equipment would be working great for the next one, and he had some new magic tricks that he knew all the kids would love. That definitely sounded like a good time for my family! | <urn:uuid:c53c1ed2-fbf5-47d5-9f37-a59034407ed0> | CC-MAIN-2021-04 | https://furnaceservicelocalexperts.com/the-magic-show-was-ruined-when-the-a-c-equipment-quit-working/ | 2021-01-20T21:58:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-04/segments/1610703522133.33/warc/CC-MAIN-20210120213234-20210121003234-00279.warc.gz | en | 0.99522 | 290 |
AT&T and litigant Matthew Spaccarelli are engaged in a war of words that AT&T appears to be losing.
The incident began when Spaccarelli sued AT&T in small claims court in California. He charged that the company had violated his unlimited data plan agreement for his iPhone by throttling, or slowing down, his data speed. The court agreed and awarded Spaccarelli US$850 for his trouble.
That was bad enough for the carrier, which prompted an outcry earlier this year when it began scaling back speeds on customers’ unlimited plans after they exceeded a certain data threshold.
However, the situation quickly worsened for AT&T.
A Threat or a Mutual NDA?
The carrier reached out to Spaccarelli, requesting that he participate in settlement talks with the network, according to news accounts. Refusal reportedly would result in his service being terminated.
Also, if Spaccarelli were to participate in the talks, one of the requirements would be a mutual nondisclosure agreement that presumably would apply to documents Spaccarelli posted online detailing how he brought — and won — his small claims suit.
Spaccarelli has shown little inclination to come to the negotiating table. He not only refused to comply with AT&T’s request to be quiet about the proposed settlement talks, but also forwarded its letter to The Associated Press.
In addition, he posted a call for other AT&T customers to take action at Publik Demand.
Some of the reports circulating in the media don’t have all the details right, according to AT&T spokesperson Mark Siegel.
For starters, “Spaccarelli reached out to us to initiate a discussion, and naturally we responded to him,” he told TechNewsWorld.
As for the mention of an NDA, “that is completely standard, and we typically enter into those agreements when people want to discus the settlement of a pending case,” he said. “The point is, though, he reached out to us to initiate a discussion, and we responded to him.”
Spaccarelli has admitted that he used his iPhone to connect other devices to the Internet, Siegel said. That is, he tethered it, which is not allowed under AT&T’s terms of service for the unlimited plan. “If customers want to tether, we have plans that allow them to do so.”
A Folk Hero
If this is the full story, AT&T had better step up its efforts to get out its version of what happened, David Johnson, principal of Strategic Vision, told TechNewsWorld.
The way the story is trending now, Spaccarelli is turning into a minor folk hero.
“I could see him starring in the next Verizon Wireless ad, easily,” said Johnson.
A Smoking Gun?
Right now, it looks as though AT&T is threatening to shut down Spaccarelli’s account after he went through the proper legal channels to register a complaint — and won, Johnson said.
“Instead of just being an embarrassing episode for AT&T, the carrier is now coming off as a bully and possibly even suggesting that there may be something else going on, perhaps a smoking gun,” he suggested.
Also, by highlighting the fact that Spaccarelli’s documents are posted online, AT&T is drawing more attention to them than if it had just ignored the matter, Johnson added.
It is these that possibly pose the greatest danger to AT&T, he continued. “If other people are able to win cases against AT&T for throttling what was supposed to be unlimited data plans, it could seriously hurt the brand. This is a matter of a court agreeing with a company’s critics that it did something wrong.” | <urn:uuid:a167166d-05ad-4ed2-8ae2-014928eee519> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.technewsworld.com/story/att-could-lose-big-in-david-vs-goliath-match-74639.html?cat_id=158 | 2023-10-04T04:00:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511351.18/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004020329-20231004050329-00187.warc.gz | en | 0.975407 | 815 |
a discussion period where students pray first and then discuss life like how to maintain control in every situation and how to come out of odds etc. No matter whether you are an atheist or not. Prayer and especially the discussion about how to handle downs in life work as good mental therapy, will give you patience and keep you away from negativity. Day by day people are becoming more psycho, they indirectly torture people around them to reap self-satisfaction. For their own benefit they even do something good for you but very purposely and even unnecessarily only to take credit for that later. Crimes are also reaching higher and higher numbers, people are depressed and jealous minded as they are discontented in life even after having a lot. On the other hand, nobody knows beforehand about the approaching ups and downs and struggles in their lives. But if we can’t handle it or can not keep ourselves balanced, no knowledge will be effective in life. Instead, it will work reversely, you will be punished by your own self and will try to punish others. These people eventually know what is wrong and what is right, they have good theoretical knowledge but have a lack of practical knowledge. Sometimes they become liars to blame people wrongly only to suppress their own drawbacks. They have enough time in hand and can’t pass their time without humiliating and oppressing people whom they are jealous of. Their parents have to consider them only to retain peace and harmony at home. These people are strong-minded but always find opportunities to disturb others’ minds. It might be that those ones have some miseries due to their faults or others’ but all don’t become psychos. Earlier I endured people a lot, my baby was small then, I had nothing to do. When I used to become sad, I would cry and then wipe my tears. But I was able to keep myself mentally strong and balanced. Nowadays, I am really scared of torture. But I have leart how to handle life. Yes, some people may become imbalanced due to some worries or heavy work pressure but there is nothing to worry there, just give them space, it will go with time but some are permanently psychos. Even medicines might not be effective for them. Rather, they gradually become addicted to those drugs and no harmful drugs give them a permanent solution. A suggestion I would like to give to those who find themselves mentally perturbed, also keep yourself engaged more or less in household work, it will work as a therapy and take you out of your mind games. Believe me, it will build up your confidence, bring togetherness, suppress mental disturbance and you will learn how to be practically focused on life.

Health insurance giants unite in transparency effort
Send this to a friend
The health care cost transparency movement took a huge step forward this week as three of the nation's largest health insurance providers announced they would make their claims data publicly available.
UnitedHealthcare, Aetna and Humana have all agreed to work with the nonprofit Health Care Cost Institute. HCCI will collect data from the insurance companies and create a digital portal, which it expects to have in operation by early next year.
"Consumers, employers and regulatory agencies will now have a single source of consistent, transparent health care information based on the most reliable data available, including actual costs, which only insurers currently have," HCCI Executive Director David Newman said in a statement. "Voluntarily making this information available will be of immeasurable value to consumers and other health system participants as they seek to manage the cost and quality of care."
Tom Beauregard, executive vice president of UnitedHealth Group and executive director of the UnitedHealth Center for Health Reform & Modernization, said UnitedHealth has been working with HCCI since 2011. They provided their data to the organization for academic use, he said, and because that relationship has been successful the company felt comfortable participating in this next venture.
"The whole objective is this idea that an informed consumer will lead to better outcomes, both from a quality perspective of picking the right providers and from a cost perspective," Beauregard said. "And at a macro level that will make the whole system more sustainable and competitive."
The Affordable Care Act has effectively increased the number of Americans with health insurance, Beauregard said. This is an example of industry stepping up to take the next step to try to reign in cost.
Advocates of greater transparency in health care say it's currently too difficult for consumers to make purchasing decisions based on value, because cost and quality information is not readily available. When providers don't have to compete based on value, prices go up, experts say.
Beauregard said he didn't expect much backlash from providers, either, who will have their cost and quality data made public.
"I actually think it will be welcomed by all constituents," he said.
The announcement also happened to coincide with the release of a report from the Gary and Mary West Health Policy Center that found implementing simple transparency policies could save $100 billion from the nation's health care costs over 10 years.
One of the report's recommendations was to require all private health plans to provide personalized out-of-pocket expense information to enrollees. That alone could save between $15 and $20 billion over a decade, the analysis found.
In order to reach the full $100 billion, the report's authors also recommend using a database to report hospital prices and requiring electronic health records systems to provide prices to physicians when they order diagnostic tests.
"Transparency is what makes markets work," Beauregard said.

The Very Best Learning Method Is Not Taught To Students Or Teachers - PsyBlog:
The one learning technique which works best is the one that students use the least.
Spreading out learning over time is one of the most effective strategies.
So-called ‘distributed practice’ means breaking up learning into short sessions.
People learn better when they learn in these short sessions spread over a long period of time.
The reverse — cramming in a short space of time — doesn’t work that well.
Despite this, distributed practice is very infrequently used by students and may not be highlighted as a top strategy to them by teachers.
Instead, students tend to use highly inefficient methods such as highlighting, summarising, underlining and re-reading.
'via Blog this'
Steve, you're right, this so rarely used in education today. We've seen distributed practice work really well when combined with projects and real world applications of prior learning.ReplyDelete | <urn:uuid:e6fb4fc9-e5f8-4b33-824b-a92f2dd8b81d> | CC-MAIN-2023-23 | http://blog.learningrevolution.com/2017/03/the-very-best-learning-method-is-not.html | 2023-06-01T14:50:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-23/segments/1685224647895.20/warc/CC-MAIN-20230601143134-20230601173134-00035.warc.gz | en | 0.943868 | 202 |

I have been wanting to get to this space all week. But to tell you the truth, I don't have much to say. I've just been busy doing what I do. Finding room for everything new. Trying to get rid of a bunch of old.......without anyone noticing. I've been baking cookies and blaring music. Cleaning closets and doing laundry. Playing referee, psychologist and chauffeur. Making meals and making coffee. The daily grind is all good.
I did start a new project early this week; something for myself.

JOHNSTOWN, PA – The Professional Outdoor Media Association (POMA) launched The Hexagon Dilemma, a national discussion about the sale and purchase of creative content and intellectual property and specifically the ongoing use of all-rights contracts. The online discussion (www.professionaloutdoormedia.org/hexagon), among content creators and buyers of creative content, will culminate at the POMA National Rights Summit during the organization’s Annual Business Conference in Ogden, Utah, Aug. 11, 2011.
“The purpose of this open discussion and rights summit is to stimulate conversation between content creators, including writers, photographers, broadcasters and videographers, and the entities that purchase creative works,” said POMA Chairman Bill Miller.
“POMA is hearing of more and more all-rights contracts being offered. All-rights contracts are a deep concern among content creators, but are touted as ‘essential for survival in today’s business environment’, among content buyers,” Miller adds.
“We’re asking professionals on all sides of this issue to enter into a productive and honest discussion, find answers to a myriad of questions and explore solutions that serve and benefit both sides.”
During the POMA National Rights Summit, groups of journalists, content buyers, media company executives and legal specialists will present their input and brainstorm solutions that could be adopted nationwide. The brainstorming session will be followed by a presentation of suggestions by each group.
POMA has reached out to numerous creative groups and associations, including American Society of Media Photographers, Association of Journalists and Authors and regional and state outdoor journalists’ organizations, as well as literary and copyright legal experts requesting their participation in the online discussion and at the National Rights Summit.
To engage in the online discussion, visit the POMA website (www.professionaloutdoormedia.org). If you’re already a POMA member or have a guest login account, simply log in and click on the 2011 Rights Summit link to join the discussion. If you do not have a POMA account, register for a guest account to join the discussion.

More than 100 Baltimore educators are protesting this week's vote on the proposed teachers union contract, calling for union officials to delay until the contract contains more details on the new evaluation system.
By Monday, 125 teachers had signed an electronic petition, titled "Delay the BTU contract vote until we know what we're signing," which was started by a teacher immediately after the union released the contract Sept. 29. Last week, another teacher began an effort to distribute 2,000 fliers throughout the district's schools saying, "Let's send our union back to the bargaining table," and urged that members vote against the contract.
Both campaigns say teachers need more specifics about how they will be evaluated under the new contract, which overhauls seniority compensation in exchange for merit pay and allows teachers to climb a pay ladder via a yet-to-be determined evaluation system. The petition also calls for a clearer explanation on how the $60 million contract will be funded after its initial three-year period.
"I just want to make sure this is a democratic process and that teachers are not treated as rubber-stampers," Robin Bingham, an English and drama teacher at Civitas Middle School who started the petition, said in an interview Monday. Bingham said she attended two information sessions before she fully understood the contract. Still, she said, two weeks is not enough to dissect radical changes.
"I don't like the rushed nature of it, and the fact that it's rushed makes me extremely suspicious about the things we're not being told," she said.
Union officials said they are aware of the protests but did not feel a delay of the vote was necessary. Early voting is scheduled for Wednesday at the union's headquarters, and regular voting will occur Thursday at Polytechnic Institute from noon to 3 p.m.
"We are aware of the petitions," said BTU spokeswoman Jessica Aldon. "We have found that teachers are not upset about the contract once they get their questions answered … and once teachers understand where they stand as far as pay scales are concerned and what it means for the future, they are fine."
Aldon said that field representatives and members of the union's negotiating team have been at schools explaining the new contract and will continue to do so until the vote. Aldon said, "If we find we need to push it [the vote] back we will, but I don't see that happening."
Proponents of the contract said that teachers have educated themselves on the contract in the past two weeks, and accept that it prepares teachers for imminent evaluation reforms at the state level.
"My experience has been that excitement about the contract goes up with more knowledge," said Campbell McLean, a building representative for the Baltimore Teachers Union, who has hosted information sessions on the contract.
Peter French, a 19-year veteran of the school system, is leading the effort to get teachers to vote against the contract Thursday. French, who teaches at City Neighbors Charter School, designed the leaflets dispersed throughout the city last week, which assert that the contract promotes "increased principal control, teacher competition and teaching to the test."
"We have a concept that's not developed," French said. "There's no research that says this is going to improve teaching and the system for kids."
French said he believed that both the union and school system had good intentions, but the radical changes to the compensation and evaluation systems called for more teacher input during the negotiating process. He said the contract focuses too much on pay raises rather than how the quality of teaching and work conditions will improve.
"Money is important to us, there's no question," he said. "But just to think that [is] all we will respond to, and that our classrooms will change because of that, is just wrong. I'm in favor in change, as long as I know what the change is. It's rather disrespectful to say, 'just trust us.'" | <urn:uuid:d1293e11-fa31-4c79-84c5-9ef2ba5087ad> | CC-MAIN-2017-04 | http://articles.baltimoresun.com/2010-10-11/news/bs-ci-teacher-contract-protests-20101011_1_vote-on-new-contract-baltimore-teachers-union-city-teachers-protest | 2017-01-24T17:22:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-04/segments/1484560285001.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20170116095125-00313-ip-10-171-10-70.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.981734 | 804 |
And if the host does spring for some sort of hosted bar - say a limited bar - it would be akin to slapping them across the face to buy an upgrade. It would be no different then saying "what you provided is awful and unfit for my consumption and I will pay my own money to not consume the swivel you have provided."
I respectfully disagree. I think in this situation it is the host who is taking into consideration the individual guest preference and giving them an additional choice.
There is nothing to disagree with - because its not a universal. My post was about the norms of my
area and my
social circles. That was my point. In some places cash or partially cash bars might be fine. But they are not fine everywhere. Not to have, not to utilize.
experience in your
area in your
social circle it might not be a terrible insult to buy an upgrade at the bar. But I can tell you without hesitation that is not
a universal. In some places/in some social circles you would be seen as behaving terribly poorly for doing so.
ETA: Its like burping at a dinner table - in some cases its perfectly fine, in fact a compliment to burp at the dinner table. In other cases its horrible gauche. One can't say it definitively is one or the other because it varies by social group. | <urn:uuid:d221f363-ffdc-4ee4-bee3-b68d29460d64> | CC-MAIN-2017-04 | http://www.etiquettehell.com/smf/index.php?topic=113446.15 | 2017-01-21T02:31:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-04/segments/1484560280899.42/warc/CC-MAIN-20170116095120-00156-ip-10-171-10-70.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.969715 | 279 |

This week we are going for the theme of BABIES as C is beginning to talk more about “the baby in Mummy’s tummy!” As we are still a long way off due date I don’t want to raise her anticipation too much, too soon, but some stories with babies as central characters are a gently introduction!
This was a gift from the BookStart scheme and I just love it. So perfect for a 5 a Day book with its strong rhyme and lovely, consistent concept throughout. Beautifully multi-cultural illustrations, and all about celebrating the unique gift of each child- a real gem!
A lovely book from the “That’s not my” series! This was a gift to C when baby Pop was born and they both really enjoy it now. These books are great for easy prediction and discussions relating to textures, as each page is different.
We have included this as a 5 a Day book many times now! Quite simply, a real favourite. It goes through the daily routines of 5 babies and their individual families, showing a good range of cultures. I always love the positive and very open images of breastfeeding throughout- quite unusual to find now!
Another favourite from the same author and illustrator team. Another day in the life of a baby, this time set in the post war period, with a little hole to peep through on each page. I haven’t met a child who doesn’t love this!
A lovely, simple book with very few words, all about a baby on his way to bed. It outlines the bedtime routine extremely simply and is easy to learn the words off by heart. Little Pop loves this too!
What books are you reading this week? Have you been creating or playing along to the theme of a favourite story?

Auto insurance is legally required for you to drive, so you should definitely have it. Trying to understand all the information from the many different insurance companies can be overwhelming. This article will help you understand some of the tips that make a big difference in how well the insurance process treats you.
You need to understand what kind of coverage you need for car insurance. Your insurance may only be for a single vehicle, but the cost will still be affected by many different variables. You should get a bodily injury liability in your policy to make sure you are covered for any costs linked to hurting someone.
Before you purchase a car, it’s important to talk to your insurance agent first. Your insurance agent can tell you what vehicles have the best premiums. Knowing the amount of insurance you will need to pay ahead of time can help in your choice of a new or used car. You won’t pay as much on car insurance if you buy a car with a solid safety rating.
Liability coverage of certain minimum levels are required by most states. As a responsible citizen, you should know your state’s insurance laws, and have a policy for at least the minimum requirement for your state. If you get into an accident, and you do not have insurance you will suffer financially, but there is also a chance that you can get in legal trouble.
It is a common misconception that the cost of auto insurance automatically drops as the driver reaches 25 years of age. If you have a good driver record, your premiums will go down as you age, even if you are still under 25.
Your vehicle’s make and model is the number one influencing factor on your auto insurance rates. If you want a top of the line, luxurious vehicle, your insurance will be higher. Choose something nice, safe and reliable over a flashier option to save big on insurance bills.
Cheap insurance, though attractive, is not always the best choice depending on your needs. Cheap may be exactly what you get! Research the insurance company you are considering buying your auto insurance from. The more you know about them and understand their policies, the easier it will be to work with them in the event of an emergency.
You should evaluate each item covered in your auto insurance to see if it might be worth dropping from your policy. Make a list of the current items you are paying for with car insurance. Compare that list to your actual needs. You may find coverage you can drop. You can save a considerable amount of money by removing collision coverage. Liability coverage has a required minimum, but if you previously had a high amount, you may want to lower it somewhat.
Determine whether any policy you are considering covers you in the event that you have an accident that involves an uninsured driver. Take this into consideration, because it can impact the cost of your premium. This type of policy will still pay if the other driver doesn’t have insurance.
If you drive less than a certain mileage a year, such as 7500 miles, you might get a discount from the insurance company. So, driving less is a good way to reduce your insurance costs.
It is important to consider every possible scenario when choosing a coverage amount. As a rule of thumb, the more assets that you own, the more liability coverage you should have. An insurance agent should be able to help you ensure you do not under-insure your vehicle. It is more prudent to get enough coverage and be safe.
Before you change your car insurance, be sure that you don’t have any unresolved traffic violations or parking tickets. A new insurance company will always review the driving records of everyone on your policy. If there is an easy fix you can make to improve your record, get it done before looking for your new policy. Making sure you obey the law will help keep your insurance premiums lower.
Defensive driving courses can be a great and simple way to lower your insurance rates. Almost every car insurance company offers a reduction in premiums for such courses, and you will improve your driving skills as well. Check with any local driving schools in your area because most will offer these classes. You can also find them online.
Driving without any form of car insurance is illegal in most states. If you happen to be involved in an accident, insurance can help to protect your assets. The advice in this article should help you choose the best company and coverage. | <urn:uuid:39725b00-24db-46be-828e-20e547e80071> | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | http://threeducks.net/?p=1345 | 2018-10-22T15:04:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-43/segments/1539583515088.88/warc/CC-MAIN-20181022134402-20181022155902-00092.warc.gz | en | 0.958717 | 900 |
In order to relate to panic attacks and the "fear of fear" the easiest example is something which all of us will experience on a regular basis. Have you ever been in a situation when you sense danger? Or perhaps a situation where you sense the unexpected? Our bodies, both physically and mentally, are attuned to sense danger before we actually realise it ourselves. Well, the life of someone who suffers from panic attacks is dominated by this feeling, this fear and high anxiety 24 hours a day seven days a week.
Unless you have been there, done it then it is difficult to understand exactly how debilitating and exhausting this state of mind and body can be.
What causes panic attacks?
The exact cause of panic attacks will vary from person to person and indeed some may suffer a handful of panic attacks each year while others may suffer the same number each week. The whole episode is prompted by your body's fear of danger but it is the way in which your body reacts both mentally and physically from here on in which may prompt an attack.
The more common symptoms of a panic attack include the feeling that your heart is about to beat out of your chest, the crushing headaches and for many people sweaty palms and sometimes irrational shaking. As we touched on above, all of us will at some point experience these particular symptoms but those who go on to experience full-blown panic attacks react in a different manner because their body is always at a heightened state of anxiety.
What damage can a panic attack do?
If you talk to your doctor or therapist about panic attacks and discuss your fears and concerns when you are in full "panic attack" mode, the first thing they will tell you is that nobody has ever died of a panic attack. A panic attack cannot physically hurt you even though you will have the sweaty palms, the beating heart and severe headaches. The more concerning element attached to panic attacks is how you react and how you remove yourself from the situation which is causing you so much anxiety.
If you talk to those who suffer from panic attacks you will see a common thread in that for example the vast majority will regain full control of their mind and body once they return home, or to some other place of "safety". It is this feeling of safety which needs to be replicated in the mind of sufferers as it gives them a scenario in which they can fully appreciate that their irrational "fear of fear" is nowhere near as bad as they felt at the time.
While the term "rewiring your brain" sounds a little severe this is a simple description of what needs to be done. It is the way in which your body reacts irrationally to situations which would normally present no real fear and no real concern. We then get the snowball effect of the physical impact, leading to a further mental impact which then increases your anxiety and physical symptoms. The makings of a vicious circle!
Treating panic disorder
While there are short-term medical treatments which can take the edge off your anxiety and allow you to take control, there is also an array of thought processes which you can go through. It is also important that those who suffer from panic attacks learn to read the signs at the earliest stage possible so that they can introduce deep breathing techniques and override the growing anxiety in their minds. If we tell you that everybody has the potential to have phobias, to experience panic attacks and similar uncomfortable episodes, would that surprise you?
Many people learn to live with their panic disorder while others will with assistance and focus potentially banish them completely from their lives. In simple terms a panic attack is brought on by anxiety which magnifies our natural "fight or flight" reaction which we are born with. Learning to control your breathing, to think more rationally and to focus upon thoughts which calm you will allow you to live life again without extreme fear. | <urn:uuid:da2f6619-34c0-468b-982a-749ddc7e3020> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | http://phobiasupportforum.com/phobia-treatments/fear-of-fear-when-panic-attacks-take-over/ | 2018-01-20T09:26:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084889542.47/warc/CC-MAIN-20180120083038-20180120103038-00380.warc.gz | en | 0.969957 | 779 |
Facebook Open Sources ‘Efficient’ Encryption Tool For Android Devs
Conceal APIs seek to make encryption done by Android apps efficient and simple
In an altruistic move, Facebook has open sourced code that makes it easier and more efficient for Android developers to perform encryption for apps on the Google operating system.
Facebook is hoping to fix a weakness in the way Android deals with storage with its Conceal application programming interfaces. Often, the solution to limited storage on an Android device is to push some data out to the SD card, but that is left unencrypted by default.
“This allows data to be read by any app (with the right permissions). Thus, external storage is normally not a good place to store private information,” said Subodh Iyengar, software engineer at Facebook, in a blog post.
“We saw an opportunity to do things better and decided to encrypt the private data that we stored on the SD card so that it would not be accessible to other apps. To do this efficiently, we built Conceal, a set of Java APIs to perform cryptography on Android and make storage more secure and lightweight.”
The new programming interfaces are designed “to be small and faster than existing Java crypto libraries on Android while using memory responsibly”, Iyengar said.
Rather than open up a range of encryption options, Conceal supplies “sensible defaults” as “encryption can be very tricky to get right”. It uses the AES-GCM standard, which uses authentication on top of encryption, computing a Message Authentication Code (MAC) of the data. This helps to detect any potential tampering with data.
“Conceal doesn’t implement any crypto. Instead, it uses specific cryptographic algorithms from OpenSSL. OpenSSL’s crypto library is about 1MB when built for armv7. By using only the parts of OpenSSL we needed, we were able to reduce the size of OpenSSL to 85KB,” Iyengar added.
Developers can access the Conceal API by heading to Facebook’s GitHub page.
Facebook, which is celebrating its 10th birthday this week, has a good reputation in the open source community. Its Open Compute project aims to re-imagine the data centre as a modular, hugely-efficient facility with limited vendor lock-in.

Psychological Experiments on the InternetEdited by
- Michael Birnbaum
Until recently, most psychological research was conducted using subject samples in close proximity to the investigators--namely university undergraduates. In recent years, however, it has become possible to test people from all over the world by placing experiments on the internet. The number of people using the internet for this purpose is likely to become the main venue for subject pools in coming years. As such, learning about experiments on the internet will be of vital interest to all research psychologists.Psychological Experiments on the Internet is divided into three sections. Section I discusses the history of web experimentation, as well as the advantages, disadvantages, and validity of web-based psychological research. Section II discusses examples of web-based experiments on individual differences and cross-cultural studies. Section III provides readers with the necessary information and techniques for utilizing the internet in their own research designs.

”Bandits!” cried Martha, with a look of horror.
”Exactly. Perhaps in all the world there are not three other bandits
so terrible and ?erce as ourselves,” said Victor, proudly.
”’Tis so,” said the fat man, nodding gravely.
”But it’s wicked!” exclaimed Martha.
”Yes, indeed,” replied Victor. ”We are extremely and tremendously
wicked. Perhaps in all the world you could not ?nd three men more
wicked than those who now stand before you.”
”’Tis so,” said the fat man, approvingly.
”But you shouldn’t be so wicked,” said the girl;
Victor cast down his eyes and blushed.
”Naughty!” gasped Beni, with a horri?ed look.
”’Tis a hard word,” said Luigi, sadly, and buried his face in his

”You can’t remain bandits any longer,” said she, ”because you are
now in America.”
”America!” cried the three, together.
”Certainly. You are on Prairie avenue, in Chicago. Uncle Walter sent
you here from Italy in this chest.”
The bandits seemed greatly bewildered by this announcement. Lugui
sat down on an old chair with a broke n rocker and wiped his forehead
with a yellow silk handkerchief. Beni and Victor fell back upon the
chest and looked at her with pale faces and staring ey es.
When he had somewhat rec overed himself Victor spoke.
”Your Uncle Walter has greatly wronged us,” he said, reproachfully.
”He has taken us from our beloved Italy, where bandits are highly
respected, and brought us to a strange country where we shall not
know whom to rob or how much to ask for a ransom.”
”’Tis so!” said the fat man, slapping his leg sharply.
”And we had won such ?ne reputations in Italy!” said Beni,
”Perhaps Uncle Walter wanted to reform you,” suggested Martha.
”Are there, then, no bandits in Chicago?” asked Victor.
”Well,” replied the girl, blushing in her turn, ”we do not call them
”Then what shall we do for a living?” inquired Beni, despairingly.
”A great deal can be done in a big American city,” said the child.
”My father is a lawyer” (the bandits shuddered), ”and my mother’s
cousin is a police inspector.”
”Ah,” said Victor, ”that is a good employment. The police need to be
inspected, especially in Italy.”
”Everywhere!” added Beni.
”Then you could do other things,” continued Martha, encouragingly.

Do you have a personal problem that you need advice on? KISS is here to help, with Dr Sarah, a clinical child psychologist specialising in adolescent issues.
“I see advice on building your confidence being about ‘being yourself’ but honestly I have no idea how to do that. Sometimes I don’t know how to act in certain situations whether I should be quiet or chatty or somewhere in the middle. How do you figure out what ‘being yourself’ means?”
You’re absolutely right that there’s lots of advice out there telling people who might have issues with confidence to just ‘be yourself’! As if it were that easy! I think the general message is to try to be real, authentic and behave in a way that makes you feel comfortable and natural rather than pretending to be something that you’re not.
Some people think that confidence is purely about being outgoing, but it’s more about being comfortable in your own skin and not feeling that you have to conform to someone else’s idea of how you should behave.
If you’re naturally shy and less outgoing, it’s okay to hold back if that’s what makes you comfortable. If you’re happy being the centre of attention, jump in there and talk to everyone if that’s what makes you happy. ‘Being yourself’ doesn’t have to mean that you behave in the same way all the time; you might be more confident and outgoing with old friends and more reserved in a crowd of new people. You’re at a point in your life where you’re still trying to figure out who you are; adolescence and young adulthood are times when you’re still forming views about your beliefs and identity, so it’s okay to feel a little uncertain.

Q. 4: What is the Word of God?
Answer: The Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament are the Word of God, and the only certain rule of faith and obedience.
Scriptures: 2 Timothy 3:16; Ephesians 2:20
Comment: We recognize the Bible (i.e. “Holy Scritpures”), consisting of 39 books in the Old Testament (from Genesis to Malachi) and 27 books in the New Testament (from Matthew to Revelation), as the word of God. The Scriptures are God-breathed (2 Tim. 3:16a). Being thus God-breathed, they are the only certain (or infallible) and sufficient rule (or standard) of our faith and obedience (3:16b; cf 4:1-5; Isa. 8:20). By “Holy” is meant sanctified or set apart from all other books (the Bible alone is uniquely the word of God). By “certain” (or infallible) is meant that the Scriptures are true in all their parts and may therefore be trusted. By “faith” is meant what we are to believe concerning the teachings or doctrines of Scripture. By “obedience” is meant how we are to live in light of the teachings of Scripture. Obedience flows from faith. Practice flows from theology. The Bible is the rock upon which we stand! | <urn:uuid:43338c94-177e-4447-88c1-35b9906f1bbb> | CC-MAIN-2018-13 | https://reformedbaptistdaily.wordpress.com/2012/08/06/the-baptist-catechism-q-4-the-word-of-god/ | 2018-03-22T17:57:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-13/segments/1521257647901.79/warc/CC-MAIN-20180322170754-20180322190754-00752.warc.gz | en | 0.92648 | 297 |
Separating and/or divorcing involves an inherent risk of conflict in relation to both legal and non-legal matters.
- Who will carry on living in the home you rent or own?
- What about legal and physical custody of the children, and what is the difference?
- How will access to the children be organised?
- Who is entitled to which assets acquired during the marriage, and before?
- Who is liable for any debt?
- How should it all be divided?
- Is one of the spouses entitled to maintenance, and what about child maintenance?
It is important to seek advice as early as possible as constructive legal assistance from the outset will ensure that you do not end up making agreements which may complicate the final settlement.
We have many years of experience in advising on legal separation and divorce, and our mission is always to keep the level of conflict low as we find this helps establish the best possible agreement for the client.
Many questions and issues are all interlinked, and it is important to retain a complete overview in the process of negotiating the final property division agreement, which covers many of the above issues and often more. | <urn:uuid:acde9fb6-7507-486c-9699-4cf6e213237f> | CC-MAIN-2018-51 | https://tvc.dk/en/practice-areas/family-law-and-law-of-succession/legal-separation-and-divorce/ | 2018-12-18T22:09:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-51/segments/1544376829812.88/warc/CC-MAIN-20181218204638-20181218230638-00441.warc.gz | en | 0.961164 | 237 |

We came away from today’s hospital appointment feeling more positive – yay!!!
My sister’s lucky bird sh*t hat that she brought with her to the hospital must have come through for Seabass, the bloody horse on the Grand National didn’t (sorry if you put a bet on).
The cyst isn’t growing. Well, it is, but it’s proportionate to the brain’s growth so it’s not actually invading any more of the brain’s space. There is some dilation of the ventricles, but the Professor said he would expect that because of the cyst.
I really like the Professor. He’s as cool as a cucumber and has a slightly “whatever” attitude. That’s not to say he doesn’t care, he’s just really good at what he does and I think he’s probably aware of that. He’s honest, not in an insensitive way, but not in a wrapping you in cotton wool way either. Basically, when he talks you know he’s telling the truth and not hiding anything. I love him, probably a bit too much really (shhhhh, don’t tell the other half). I think I’ll probably kiss his face when we have to part ways because he’s made this whole experience more bearable and we’ve felt safe with him looking after Seabass. Might see if he wants to be his godfather 🙂
There was talk of delivery at 34/35 weeks, which is only 6 weeks away – panic!! Need to get our backsides in gear and actually get Seabass some useful stuff. Nappies, sleep suits, car seat etc. Not just the AC/DC t-shirt and “I love dad” socks we’ve currently got him.
The Professor mentioned that 6 months ago they had delivered a baby with a similar problem and the neurosurgeon that Seabass will see had performed the surgery on this other baby. I asked how that baby was doing and he said he was doing ok so far. Obviously it is a long process to see how the cyst has affected neurological development. As the Professor said, it’s not just an illness that you either have or don’t have. They affect people in different ways. Some have physical disabilities, some have neurological problems but then some end up going to mainstream school and aren’t affected that greatly. It will be an ongoing, long process to measure against different milestones and how Seabass does with achieving/not achieving them. But we’re prepared for that.
So that’s all I have to update you with at the moment. Next appointment is 4 weeks today and hopefully then I’ll have a better idea of when the little man is arriving. Until then, you’ll have to make do with this scan picture that they printed off for us at the hospital (it was actually the Professor, but I feel like I’ve mentioned him a bit too much on this blog post). I’m fully aware that he looks like his face is pressed up against glass, I’m hoping that’s because he was pressed up on my stomach and not that he actually does have a big potato nose. | <urn:uuid:4deb30d9-bf41-4f4c-a5c0-5f0c4ee94e09> | CC-MAIN-2017-09 | https://bumpsbrain.com/2013/04/11/hospital-update-2/ | 2017-02-26T21:25:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-09/segments/1487501172077.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20170219104612-00618-ip-10-171-10-108.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.974978 | 702 |
The iPhone seems to be going on the way of becoming an android, although this should have nothing to do with Google’s platform. People at apple20 carried on a conversation with their iPhone and got great honest answers form the device.
In fact, the entire matter is slightly related to Google, but still not with their open system. The iPhone uses one of the search engine’s application designed especially for this device, in order to search the web after receiving vocal commands.
Apple20 hurried up to test the feature and this is what their iPhone answered:
• Q: What took so long?
• A: Woodfield Mall
• Q: Why the delay?
• A: “I did it my way” (Frank Sinatra)
• Q: Did Steve Jobs hold you up?
• A: What’s Steve Jobs got up his sleeve?
• Q: Are Apple-Google relations strained?
• A: Look for good fortune on 8/8/08
• Q: What’s next for Google Mobile App?
• A: Utility vehicles, Mobile Alabama

In a magnificent coastal location towards the southern end of the Isle of Skye; waterside tables served from the Am Praban bar overlook the Sound of Sleat to an horizon bristling with shapely peaks. Step inside to find tartan carpets and stag antlers in the hallway, whilst elsewhere the decor is mainly cotton and linen chintzes with traditional furniture. Bar meals are served in a relaxed atmosphere, with winter log fires warming the time-honoured interior. It's the ideal place to meet with the local Gaelic speaking community; here, the island's native tongue is weaved into ballads and songs by local musicians who regularly perform here, perhaps fortified by island beers and a considered selection of malts, some very local indeed. The menu is a mix of modern dishes and traditional favourites, so, reason enough to indulge in seafood or venison classics before retiring to a sumptuous residential room, some of which have sea views. | <urn:uuid:d067b9fd-a38c-45ab-a58d-95e4cd445474> | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | https://www.theaa.com/pubs/highland/hotel-eilean-iarmain-isleornsay-iv43-8qr?et=2&adr=isleornsay-hotel-eilean-iarmain-376745 | 2018-10-16T21:15:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-43/segments/1539583510867.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20181016201314-20181016222814-00026.warc.gz | en | 0.958774 | 192 |

Google Chrome Brings Play/Pause Button: An interesting new feature is reportedly coming to the Google Chrome Browser that will allow you to control media playback right from the screen when you’re on the browser. This way, their won’t be any need to go to the video page you’ve opened in one tab and press media keys to control playback. This new feature is named Global Media Controls (GMC) and has been enabled this week in Chrome’s testing playground, the Google Chrome Canary distribution.
The new feature will prove to be quite helpful for those users who like to listen to music or video in another tab while they work. To enable controls, head to chrome://flags/#global-media-controls. After a browser restart, you’ll see a play button in your toolbar next to the extensions whenever you have media playing in Chrome. Clicking it will show the title of what’s playing, where it’s playing from, and provide play/pause and skip buttons.
The features is currently available on Chrome Canary v77 and can be enabled using the “Global Media Controls” flag. Also, the feature currently supports YouTube.com but we assume that Google will soon enable support for all the popular media services before pushing out the update to the public.
The Google Chrome new Play/Pause button seems to work even better than the old clickable “speaker” button because it doesn’t require the user tracking down the offending tab. Users get the ability to stop the auto-playing sound from any tab they’re navigating. | <urn:uuid:cca1e53f-d0f1-4511-8b88-5a5902eb3ee3> | CC-MAIN-2021-25 | https://www.theprimetalks.com/google-chrome-brings-play-pause-button-for-videos-on-toolbar/ | 2021-06-12T20:14:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-25/segments/1623487586390.4/warc/CC-MAIN-20210612193058-20210612223058-00255.warc.gz | en | 0.877319 | 331 |
Twenty five years ago, my former supervisor told me that there was very little economics in economic development.
As a young economist, of course, I disagreed.
Since the goal of business is to maximize profits by producing goods and services the market wants at the lowest costs, it only made sense that economic developers would focus their efforts on ensuring that their region provided a competitive environment for their firms. However, once again, experience trumps theory; my supervisor was right.
Economic development efforts to “brand” a region and identify target industries are less associated with economics than with marketing, and, I believe, they also are misguided.
In consumer markets, branding makes sense. Harley Davidson doesn’t sell motorcycles; it sells the idea that a nerdy economist can become a reckless, young Marlon Brando on the weekends. Nike doesn’t sell shoes; it sells the dream to a middle-age guy that he can run faster and jump higher than he did when he was younger.
Target marketing also makes sense when it comes to consumer goods. If your product is aimed at tech-savvy youngsters, you don’t hawk it on the network evening news. On the other hand, if you are selling anti-depressants …
For economic development, I question the worth of both activities. It is highly unlikely that if you brand it, companies will come. Regional brands are describers of what is already there, not what could be there. Companies located in southern San Francisco Bay were producing computer components before the region was branded Silicon Valley.
Detroit was branded the Motor City because it was the center of the domestic auto industry. Kalamazoo once was branded the Celery City and then the Paper City. Pittsburgh was, of course, known as the Steel City.
We now know how those brands played out.
I believe that businesses care little about such notions as the Green Belt, Michigan: the Alternative Energy Capital of the World, Automation Alley (Southeast Michigan), or the Other West Coast (West Michigan). They want to know if the area’s work force will meet their needs and if the necessary transportation infrastructure is in place. They should already know if the region is a good market location for their goods or services.
As for targeting industries, I just don’t believe anyone is that good at forecasting. I agree that the market for health care products and services will only grow due to the aging population in almost all developed countries. I am also willing to go along with the need to explore alternative energy sources.
However, I question if anyone knows what technology or product is going to come out on top in either industry. If the French are successful in their efforts to commercialize fusion energy, it will have a sudden and severe impact on wind, solar and battery technologies. A new battery design could be announced next week in Germany or Japan that could leap frog over current designs being produced.
In short, targeting not only requires you to pick the right race; it requires you to pick the right horse.
High-growth firms exist in nearly all industries. Maybe we should target them and not their industries.
With my last economic development dollar, I would rather spend it helping our existing firms achieve their potential. Moreover, I am not opposed to giving them a little push in developing new products and services or encouraging their better employees to start up their own enterprise.
I would spend that last economic development dollar on customized training programs, a business retention call or a business leadership or innovation program, long before I would consider spending it on a branding campaign targeted at a specific industry.
In short, let’s put economics back into economic development and leave branding and targeting to the hawkers of consumer goods.

In Reply to: was born ready posted by Dave on July 01, 2010 at 18:15:
: The phrase "I was born ready" was used in the movie "Big Trouble in Little China" . That is the first I can recall hearing that phrase. Was it coined there or does it have a previous history?
I'm 99.9 percent sure it was used before the 80s. Has a 50s sound to me. | <urn:uuid:e4853d24-09c1-4a5d-b280-62974ebcda92> | CC-MAIN-2015-11 | http://www.phrases.org.uk/bulletin_board/61/messages/982.html | 2015-02-28T17:27:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-11/segments/1424936462009.45/warc/CC-MAIN-20150226074102-00281-ip-10-28-5-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.995886 | 90 |

Have you ever been into a bathroom that didn’t have a bathroom mirror? Nope. We haven’t either. No bathroom is complete without a mirror for visual effect. Mirrors play a key part in our daily grooming like shaving, applying makeup, styling our hair, etc. The mirror is one of the last things we look at before leaving not only the bathroom but often, the house. Getting the right mirror to suit our needs is an art in itself. Here is a quick guide to help you choose the right sized bathroom mirror.
If water still continues to run from the toilet tank, then you should check the float ball. A float ball that is positioned too high will constantly cause water to enter the toilet’s overflow pipe. A float ball that is positioned too low won’t allow for proper operation. Don’t let the ball touch the tank sides, and replace the ball if it is damaged.
Single bathroom vanities are made in a wide range of styles, ranging from contemporary to antique, traditional to modern. They are made out of a variety of materials. Woods such as pine and maple are commonly used. Teak and Brazilian cherry can be used too though this makes the vanity more expensive, and it may not be what you want if you’re looking into the cheap bathroom vanity unit.
Make sure the lights in your bathroom spa are not too harsh. Save those super-bright fluorescent bulbs for the kitchen where detail-oriented tasks are performed. In the bathroom, the lights should be soft, soothing and flattering. A quick fix for this would be to install a wall sconce (that doesn’t expose the light bulb). Better yet, you might consider installing a small chandelier on the ceiling. This will add not only an eye-friendly light but also an extra glamorous touch to your bathroom. To create a truly relaxing ambience, some people even pass over electric lights completely and opt for candles instead.
Walk through the room and note the traffic patterns. Move the pieces around you find an arrangement that works with the space and with the traffic flow. That is, do not block access to other rooms or doors with furniture arrangements or individual pieces. You will want to direct traffic while allowing easy access to pathways in, out of, and around the room. | <urn:uuid:8afa2367-a445-4f75-b1cf-bae97d6de9da> | CC-MAIN-2017-26 | http://www.bumpcommerce.com/bathroom-remodeling-by-hh.html | 2017-06-26T00:05:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-26/segments/1498128320595.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20170625235624-20170626015624-00456.warc.gz | en | 0.933557 | 472 |
