Celebrity Chef Peter Van Es
This Sydney chef has been in the industry for 15 years, has won a string of awards and is passionate about using quality ingredients to prepare simple, fresh food.
Peter Van Es is no stranger to steak. As executive chef of Charr restaurant in the Amora Hotel Jamison where steak is a specialty, he certainly knows how to handle meat. However according to Van Es, it's not so much the cooking that makes a steak great (although that certainly plays its part), but rather it's all about the quality of the produce. "I love simple, fresh food, well cooked with amazing flavour," he says. "My cooking is for those who believe the quality of a dish comes from accumulating only the best and freshest ingredients." This same philosophy plays out in the hotel where Van Es is prepares all the restaurant, bar, banqueting, wedding and room service menus and oversees the large team of staff responsible for executing them.
Van Es creates contemporary Australian cuisine using techniques he has refined under the tutelage of masters like Michel Roux. He worked with Roux at the Michelin-starred Waterside Inn in the UK after winning a scholarship, starting out as commis chef before being promoted to chef de partie. He has also worked as head chef at Ecco Mosman and executive sous chef at the Sydney Hilton, winning a string of awards for his craft. On top of this he also boasts a passion for surfing and football and is no stranger to charitable undertakings. At the recent Oxfam Taste for Change dinner he designed a main course of beef cheek papillote with scallop, spinach, speck and foie gras sauce.

Honours and awards: Gold medal in memory of Bishop Juliusz Nowina-Sokolnicki
Posted on April 23, 2016 by johnkersey
In my capacity as Primate of the Apostolic Episcopal Church, i authorized the issue of two charity medals in memory of the late Bishop Juliusz Nowina-Sokolnicki. The Most Revd. Juliusz Nowina-Sokolnicki (1920-2009) served as Assistant Bishop of the Apostolic Episcopal Church in Great Britain both as deputy to the late Archbishop-Count George Boyer and as bishop with special responsibilities for the Polish-speaking peoples. He was consecrated for the Apostolic Episcopal Church on 27 May 1983.
Juliusz Nowina-Sokolnicki is best-known in his capacity as the head of one of the two entities that maintained rival claims to be the Polish government-in-exile between 1971 and the fall of communism in 1990. He was Prince Grand Master of the Order of St Stanislas.
The Charity Medals were issued in gold (for outstanding merit) and silver. For each medal, a donation was made to support activity centres for children from poor families in Wrocław, Poland.
The Committee of the Charity Medals in Poland made the decision that I should be one of the recipients of the gold medal.

Use a length of plastic cord in a similar colour to the decor to cover the wire. Make sure that you measure the visible wire to make sure every inch is covered.
Before mounting the wall light, paint the wire in a colour that will blend into the wall once it is installed. Make sure that you leave the wiring overnight to dry completely.
Purchase a specially made cord cover (available from many lighting specialists) and insert the wiring into it. You can then affix the cover to the wall using its adhesive backing.
Arrange furniture so that it sits in front of the wiring (or as much of the wiring as possible). This will help to prevent the eye from being drawn to these areas of the room.
By using any one of the above tricks, you should be able to effectively hide the unattractive wiring of your wall light from view. You may even like to combine some of the tricks (such as painting the cord and arranging furniture in front of it) to doubly make sure that the wiring from your light will be hidden from visitors to your home.

Syfy's Lost Girl is Coming to Comic-Con!
Be the first to meet the the cast of Syfy's highly-anticipated new drama series, Lost Girl on Friday, July 22 at 7:30pm room 24 ABC at Comic-Con. The series has electrified viewers around the world with smashing debuts. Recently aquired by Syfy, Lost Girl is anticipated to be the next supernatural craze in the US.
A limited edition of the Lost Girl comic book, a prequel to the series, will be given out at this year's Comic-Con panel.
Lost Girl stars supernatural seductress Bo (played by Anna Silk/The Ghost Whisperer), a Succubus (a powerful female entity in folklore) who feeds off sexual energy. Emmanuelle Vaugier guest stars as "The Morrigan", the leader of the Dark Fae.
Both Anna and Emmanuelle will be leading the panel at Comic-Con along with Executive Producer, Jay Firestone (Prodigy Pictures) and Creator, Michelle Lovretta.
About Lost Girl
Raised by human parents, Bo had no reason to believe she was anything other than the girl next door — until she "drained" her first boyfriend to death.
Bo has since hit the road alone and afraid. She discovers she is one of the Fae, creatures of legend and folklore, who pass as humans while feeding off them in secret, as they have for millennia. She is faced with choosing an allegiance between the Dark or Light Fae clans. Bo decides to take the middle path between humans and the Fae while embarking on a personal mission to unlock the secrets of her origin, protecting humans along the way.
Lost Girl co-stars Kris Holden-Ried as Dyson, a shape-shifting Fae, homicide detective and Bo's love interest; Ksenia Solo as Kenzi, Bo's human confidante and street-smart survivor, Zoie Palmer as Lauren, a human doctor who competes for Bo's heart; Rick Howland as Trick, the mysterious owner and bartender at The Dal Riata tavern, with a secretive past that is yet to be unlocked, and K.C. Collins as Hale, a handsome male "Siren" who is the eternal bachelor, ultimate wingman and Dyson's partner on the force.

This is a statement piece of artful substance. The natural pattern on these Mexican agates features intricate swirls of grey, blue, light blue, green, yellow and gold. In this piece extensive sterling silver wrapping unites these agates. Each agate looks like its own canvas of watercolor art. This piece rests just below the collarbone.
Agate: Is a grounding stone, which facilitates a stable spiritual path of growth. It is a stone of balance, harmonizing the emotional, physical and intellectual. It soothes inner anger, dispels past hurt from the heart, reawakens your inner light and infuses the wearer with courage in new experiences.
Sterling silver chain is a little over 18" long including sterling silver lobster clasp. The pendant hangs a little over 2" from the chain. Each agate is 3/4" by 1".


If you unit test your WordPress projects with PHPUnit, sooner or later you'll want to test some code that interacts with the filesystem. If you are interacting with the filesystem properly, you'll be using the $wp_filesystem object.
A few months ago I found myself needing to test some code that created a file using the WordPress filesystem API. I searched for a good solution, and found the information about mocking the filesystem on the PHPUnit website. But after tinkering with vfsStream, I decided it would be easier to build a simple filesystem mocker myself than to integrate vfsStream with the WP Filesystem API. So I did.
The result is the WP Filesystem Mock.
[It] Provides a class that can be used as a mock filesystem, and also a shim for the WordPress filesystem API that uses it. This is useful in unit tests that include simple filesystem operations.

If your dad or grandpa is a golfer, consider having your kids make them a fingerprint golf ball Father's Day card! It's simple to make and should get a smile out of dads.
You can even add a footprint at the bottom to make the "green" on the course!
You will need white paint, a golf tee, paper, scissors/knife, and a black marker.
Start by cutting two slits on the folded green paper with a knife or scissors then stick the golf tee in it.
Great tutorial! We pinned it to our June ideas Pinterest board. Love this idea for the golfing dads, and we have a lot of them in City of Kawartha Lakes!

Fifteen years ago this month, my husband and I accepted a challenge to join a movement promising it could make good marriages better.
Our Marriage Encounter weekend in February 1999 happened at the former Queen of Peace Retreat Center in north Fargo, and modeled the global, faith-based Worldwide Marriage Encounter initiative.
Our commitment meant rounding up a sitter for our two young children for three days and spending much of the weekend in a room … together … with just each other. At that point in our lives, uninterrupted discussions had become elusive. Were we up to this?
"Encounter" seemed a fitting word for the event. Heading into the weekend, I'm pretty sure we both felt like we'd just entered the 1977 hit movie, "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," approaching our time together like we might a mysterious, unidentified flying object appearing upon the horizon.
Sleep-deprived and consumed by daily tasks of young parenthood, a "good" rating for our marriage might have been a stretch. Without knowing it, we'd begun losing sight of what had brought us together eight years earlier.
But something life-changing happened that weekend. And nearly every month since, through the highs and lows of life, we've traded in a Sunday afternoon nap to leave home with a notebook in hand, snack to share and hope in our hearts.
You might think of it as a marriage support group, though we freely share first and last names, and rather than meeting to overcome an affliction, gather simply to remember our roots and celebrate the decision to love.
Central to our gatherings are prayer and love letters we write each other – thus, the notebooks. After being given a topic, couples go off together to compose their letters in solitude before exchanging them.
We focus on writing more from the heart than head, and though it might seem basic, there's something sacred about having space to communicate with one's spouse in a non-confrontational atmosphere.
The subjects we discuss aren't ones we'd necessarily bring up in everyday conversation – certainly not in the midst of carting the kids around and trying to get dinner on the table – but sharing our thoughts in this manner has been transforming.
Married singles are couples who are married but acting out their lives as if single. We're nearly all susceptible, especially when children enter the picture. The intensity of child-rearing can distract, leading us to neglect our family's core relationship – each other. And we forget that if the foundation crumbles, our children could end up harmed, too.
If you think about it, marriage is the only civil institution that unites children with their parents. We don't always get it right, but it seems worth pulling out all the stops to try.
So we gather to remember the cornerstone of our unit; the two of us, man and woman joined in marriage. We share wise sayings, like, "The best gift a husband can give his children is to love their mother," and encourage one another.
Despite the seriousness of our quest, there's plenty of knee-slapping, too. Each December, our group has a "glogg and nog" party requiring we show up in crazy "head gear;" a zany wig or hat.
At the culmination of this annual festivity, we partake in a rousing version of the old TV game show, "The Newlywed Game," to see which couples are most in sync. This last year's competition turned downright raucous when the two top contenders rallied voraciously for the grand prize.
I won't name names, but I'm fairly certain the losers are already plotting how to claim next year's winner's seat, even while knowing the real victory comes in recognizing our burdens are less so when tackled together.
Mother Teresa once was asked how to attain world peace. "Go home and love your family," she answered.
At times we've agonized over whether to pry ourselves from the couch to interrupt a football game or good book to attend our monthly gathering. But in the end we go, fairly convinced by now that there's nothing more valuable than a close encounter of the married kind to help make our little corner of the world the best that it can be.
By the way, tomorrow is World Marriage Day. Have you hugged your spouse lately?

Last and not least, there is friendliness toward animals ("great and small, seen and unseen, omitting none") . . . plants . . . your body . . . and yourself. Even friendliness toward inanimate objects: greeting the door before you open it, the ground about to meet your feet; not slamming the drawer in, but instead wishing it well; welcoming the cup rising to your lips.

James Soriano, a 21-year-old student from Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU) and columnist at Manila Bulletin since 2008, made it among hot searches on Google and also became a hot trending topic both on Twitter and Yahoo Philippines today, August 26, 2011.
That's because of James Soriano's article entitled "Language, learning, identity, privilege" which was published on Manila Bulletin's online website (mb.com.ph) at 4:06am today, but was later deleted before noon because of controversial content.
The fact that Manila Bulletin decided to remove James Soriano's article could mean that there must be something wrong in its content.
English is the language of learning. I've known this since before I could go to school. As a toddler, my first study materials were a set of flash cards that my mother used to teach me the English alphabet.
The article has triggered hot discussion among Pinoy internet users such as on social networking sites (Twitter and Facebook).
Some have criticized the author for being reckless, arrogant and insulting.
I think the only objectionable thing that James Soriano said was that "Filipino is the language of the streets and not the language of the learned", but he actually made a point, a hurting truth about our education system.
Singer-songwriter Jim Paredes has also reacted on the issue. "No reason to hate James Soriano. He merely opened a topic that we either resonate with or not," he said on Twitter.
What happened to the people in the Philippine government institution who gets mad when our national anthem is sung in the fashion that they do not allow???? AND YET DEADMA LANG SILA SA MANILA BULLETIN na article ni James Soriano--- that government institution should demand Manila Bulletin for an explanation or apology...ano ba kayo lenguahe na natin ang inalipusta, tatahimik lang kayo?????? E mano ba kung Manila Bulletin iyan, instik nga may ari nyan, ni hindi natin alam kung nagbabayad yan ng tamang buwis.... the branch of the Philippine Government that holds it office near the National Library and Luneta have to do something about this....Ang DSWD nga nag rereact sa mga pinag gagawa sa mga mahihirap na bata sa isang top noon time TV show--- ano kayo, ngas-ngas lang? Dapat i-memo nyo ang chief editors ng Manila Bulletin sa pag payag na ilathala ang mapang alipustang articulong ito sa pagdiriwang ng Linggo ng Wika....wake up and get to work guys!

Charles W. Fischer
On the rostrum of county officials in Sheboygan county appears the name of Charles W. Fischer, who in 1910 was elected to the position of clerk. He was well qualified for the duties of the office, owing to his previous experience in filling out the unexpired term of E. B. Mattoon, who had been appointed postmaster. Mr. Fischer took the office in 1go8 and served until January, 1909. He was then defeated for the position by August G. Meyers, whom he in turn defeated in 1910. He is proving capable and faithful, having carefully systematized the duties of the position which he is now discharging with credit to himself and satisfaction to his constituents.
Mr. Fischer was born in Plymouth, April 5, 1879, and is a son of Henry W. and Theresa (Karpe) Fischer. The father was for a number of years engaged in the shoe business at Plymouth where he established his home in 1852. He remained, thereafter, a valued and representative citizen of that place to the time of his death, which occurred in February, 1909. He not only figured prominently in business circles, but was also the first supervisor for Plymouth and was filling that position at the time of his demise. His wife had died when her son Charles was but eleven years of age.
In the place of his nativity Charles W. Fischer spent his boyhood and youth and entered the public schools, passing through consecutive grades and attending the high school. He then started out in the business world, becoming printer's "devil" in the office of the Plymouth Reporter. He continued in connection with that paper for a number of years, working his way gradually upward until he was made foreman of the office. He resigned upon his election to the position of county clerk and the Reporter thus lost one of its most capable representatives.
His present position is not the only office that he has filled. He succeeded his father as supervisor, representing the first ward of Plymouth and he was also for two years, 1909 and 1910, county superintendent of the poor. In every relation of life he has been found trustworthy, capable and energetic, and the record he has made is, therefore, a most creditable one.
In 1907 Mr. Fischer was married to Miss Emma Alten, of Plymouth, in which place her father, August Alten, a retired farmer, now resides. To Mr. and Mrs. Fischer has been born one daughter, Thersa, whose birth occurred on the 25th of February, 1912. Mr. Fischer is well known in fraternal circles, holding membership with the Elks, the Equitable Fraternal Union, the F. 0. R. and the Eagles. He is loyal to their teachings and he has many friends in those organizations. Widely known throughout the county he is popular because of his attractive social qualities and his recognized sterling worth.

The city of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria hosted the 2016 edition of the African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) on Saturday, June 8, 2016. The Obi Wali International Conference Centre was busy with celebrities walking the red carpet and getting their pictures taken. Cameras of all sizes were positioned on the red carpets. Cameramen were busy behind their cameras to capture golden moments the AMAA has been known for in the last twelve years.
Inside the hall, the event was underway with the Rivers State governor, Ezenwo Wike giving his welcome address to the dignitaries from Nigeria and Africa who converged on his state to witness the awards. In attendance were the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Lagos State, Steve Ayorinde, Wife of Rivers State governor, Justice Eberechi Wike, members of the House of Representatives like Honourable Gbajabiamila among other dignitaries.
According to him, the jury noticed a growing diversity of genres amongst the films they saw. "We also observed a visible development in exploring cinematographic styles especially in the field of storytelling/narration and art direction. We note also a strong presence of women in front of and behind the camera. A couple of the films we have in nomination were either made by women or produced by women. This sure-footed emergence of women filmmakers on the African continent is very promising, encouraging and refreshing for audiences and female professionals in the industry.
Hilarious Port Harcourt comedian, Arinze Baba, took to the stage to share rib cracking jokes that sent the audience laughing for a long time. Before long the first set of awards was announced with 'Meet The Parents' (Nigeria/Canada) winning the first prize of the night in the Efere Ozako Amaa 2016 Award For Best Short Film category. The Pencil (Burkina Faso), The Fruitless Tree (Niger) And Missing God (Nigeria) won in Amaa 2016 Award For Best Animation, Amaa 2016 Award For Best Documentary, Ousmane Sembene Amaa 2016 Award For Best Film In An African Language categories respectively.
The queen of music, Yinka Davies took the audience into the heart of her music with her powerful voice and performance. Harry Song would later charge the hall with the performance of his hit song, 'After the Reggae Play Blues'. Everyone stood on their feet as they gyrated to the rhythm of his song. His performance changed the tone of the night.
Veteran actor, Joke Silva and her husband Olu Jacobs.
It was also a night of surprises as long standing actors were appreciated for their contributions to the Nigerian film industry. Veteran actor, Joke Silva and her husband Olu Jacobs were called to the stage to give awards but it turned out that they were called to be given an award to their surprise and that of the audience.
They were honoured with AMAA Life Time Achievement Awards. An emotional Silva could not hide her joy as she spoke: "We didn't know this was coming. Peace just told us she needed our support and for us to be at the awards. She didn't tell us about this at all. We are grateful," she said breaking into tears.
Actor Richard Mofe Damijo was also honoured with the AMAA Life Time Achievement Award. "Wow, I am surprised. I want to say a big thank you to Peace for this. Thank you to Mr Mike Adenuga who nominated me to be the commissioner for tourism in Delta State. This award is for the young boys on the streets of Warri, Zamfara, Kano, who are struggling to make a living and be heard," he said.

Rolls-Royce announces the launch of a new engine family for business aviation, with the introduction of the Pearl. The engine has been purpose-built and will be the sole engine for Bombardier's latest business jets, the Global 5500 aircraft and the Global 6500 aircraft.
Rolls-Royce is the world's leading engine supplier for business aviation, powering over 3,000 aircraft in service today, with a 42% market share. The Pearl 15 is the first of the planned state-of-the-art Pearl engine family for business aviation and marks the sixth new civil aerospace engine introduced by Rolls-Royce in the past 10 years. The introduction of this new engine family serves to reaffirm Rolls-Royce's leading position in business aviation.
The Pearl engine combines innovative technologies derived from Rolls-Royce's Advance2 technology demonstrator programmes with proven features from the Rolls-Royce BR700, today's leading engine family in business aviation. Its pioneering technology, combined with outstanding performance, will support Bombardier's successful Global family of aircraft in reaching new standards in the ultra-long-range corporate jet market.
Chris Cholerton, President – Civil Aerospace, Rolls-Royce, said: "Our teams have worked hard behind the scenes to develop this new engine and we are proud, once again, to lead the way in business aviation. The Pearl engine is a pioneering product, bringing together the most eco-friendly and efficient technologies available today."
The new engine, which has been developed at Rolls-Royce's Centre of Excellence for Business Aviation engines in Dahlewitz, Germany, has undergone a comprehensive test programme and received EASA certification on 28 February 2018. The engine is currently undergoing flight tests at Bombardier's Flight Test Centre in Wichita, Kansas, supporting the planned entry into service at the end of 2019.
Chris Cholerton added: "The combination of outstanding performance, economy, and reliability levels make it the perfect fit for Bombardier's newest Global aircraft and, with the Pearl engine, we are extending our successful relationship with Bombardier, which started more than 20 years ago. Together we made history by creating a whole new class of aircraft and that success story enters a new chapter today."
David Coleal, President, Bombardier Business Aircraft, said: "The Global 5500 and Global 6500 aircraft have the longest range, the largest cabins and the smoothest ride in their class, and we are very proud that they will be powered by the advanced and efficient Pearl engine, purposebuilt for these aircraft by our longstanding partners at Rolls-Royce."
The Pearl 15 also exemplifies Rolls-Royce's IntelligentEngine vision of a future where product and service become indistinguishable thanks to advancements in digital capability. As well as a new-generation Engine Health Monitoring System that introduces advanced vibration detection, the engine benefits from the incorporation of advanced remote engine diagnostics and bidirectional communications that allow for easy remote reconfiguration of engine-monitoring features from the ground. In line with the IntelligentEngine vision, these developments ensure that cloud-based analytics and Big Data continue to play an increasing role in delivering exceptional levels of availability and greater peace of mind for customers.

HR pros know the difficulties of recruiting top-notch talent for any position in an organization, but filling IT or dev positions might be the most challenging of all.
With increased competition for a small pool of talented individuals, rising salary requirements, benefits, and other perks have created a bidding war between large and small business alike.
Schoof said websites like Salary.com do a disservice to young people who are new to the job market.
So just as 2014 created a crunch in the HR profession for IT employees, 2015 only shows that trend increasing. Good luck out there.

Disgraced former MP criticises Kellogg's for using monkey on its Coco Pops cereal boxes
Coco the Monkey on a cereal box from Kellogg's Coco Pops. (Kellogg's)
An embarrassed former MP criticized Kellogg's for using a monkey for his branding for Coco Pops and claims that he is racist.
Fiona Onasanya, who was sentenced to three months in prison last year, attacked the grain on Twitter.
Scroll to continue with the content
She claimed to have written to Kellogg about the problem, but said she was still waiting for an answer.
She compared Coco Pops to another grain, Rice Krispies, and asked why one had Coco the Monkey on its crates while the other had Snap, Crackle, and Pop.
She tweeted on Monday: "Coco Pops and Rice Krispies have the same composition (except for the fact that CPs are brown and chocolate flavored) ... so I wondered why Rice Krispies have three white boys who represent the brand , and Coco Pops have a monkey? "
Former Labor MP Fiona Onasanya has claimed that Coco Pops' branding is racist. (PA)
Onasanya, a former Labor MP, was found guilty of falsifying the legal process in December 2019 after lying to the police about a speeding ticket.
She was sentenced to three months in prison in January 2019.

In a follow-up tweet, she pointed out that Corn Flakes inventor John Harvey Kellogg, who was for racial segregation, founded the Race Betterment Foundation, an American eugenics foundation.
He was the brother of Kellogg's founder Will Keith Kellogg.
Coco is also used for branding White Chocolate Coco Pops. (Kellogg's)
She wrote: "Now that John Harvey Kellogg co-founded the Race Betterment Foundation (the main purpose of the foundation was to investigate the cause and cure of" racial degeneration "), it would be a thorn in my side not to ask."
The term "Coco Pops" was announced on Tuesday morning due to her tweets on Twitter.

But many Twitter users mocked the former MP for Peterborough for her comments.

She was accused of being "offended by everything" by other Twitter users.

Removed statue of slave trader Robert Milligan in East London
A statue of a slave owner in East London was removed after days of anti-racism protests across the country. Robert Milligan's figure was removed from the pedestal on West India Quay in the Docklands on Tuesday evening, two days after activists tore down a statue of a slave trader in Bristol. Workers have now committed to reviewing more monuments in their areas, while Milligan's removal was part of "a broader discussion of how to deal with this part of our history and the symbols that represent it," said Tower Mayor John Biggs Hamlets.

Professor Stephen Gordon of Laval University has responded to my earlier post and to an op-ed by National Post writer Peter Foster.
Both Foster and I noted that there is an important distinction between a tax and a price. Professor Gordon is right that a tax on carbon affects the price of carbon—neither Foster nor I had ever maintained that it didn't.
But that doesn't mean that a tax is the same as a price.
And if Professor Gordon was trying to persuade readers that he sees the difference, he has failed miserably. Indeed, his response suggests that he comes close to equating the two.
A market price is what a consumer has to pay in order to purchase a good or service. In contrast, a tax is, er, what a consumer has to pay in order to purchase a good or service. This is one of those cases of a distinction without a difference.
Professor Gordon, to his credit, goes on to show that he does understand the difference. Specifically, he understands that the revenue from an untaxed price goes to the seller and that the revenue from a tax goes to the government. My objection, as I made clear, was not that he did not understand this, but that he subtly equated a tax and a price to soft-pedal his proposal for a carbon tax.
His response suggests that I was right.
Interestingly, Professor Gordon did not respond to my other criticism of his op-ed. Specifically, I challenged his view that a tax on carbon would replace the many intrusive regulations that governments now impose to discourage the use of carbon-base fuels. He and I both agree that a tax would be superior to such command-and-control regulation. My point was, and is, that if the government imposes a tax on carbon, it would keep almost all of the current intrusive regulations in place.
Does his silence on this issue mean he concedes my point? I believe it does.

Is this the end of online piracy?
Nick SasThe West Australian
Wednesday, 8 April 2015 1:20PM
Camera IconCould this be the start of the slow decline of Australia's golden age of online piracy? Credit: The West Australian
Though some headlines may say otherwise, yesterday's Federal Court decision against iiNet does not spell the end of online pirating.
Ask anyone under 30: downloading a movie or TV show through online sites such as The Pirate Bay is a way of life.
If you have any doubts, go around your office on Tuesday and ask who paid to watch the season opener of Game of Thrones.
But this decision - along with the predicated proliferation of streaming sites such as Netflix, Presto and Stan - could be the start of a slow decline in pirating content and Australia's so-called golden age of online piracy.
Late yesterday the Federal Court ruled that thousands of Australians who downloaded Hollywood film Dallas Buyers Club illegally would have their details handed to the owners of the film.
The ruling came after iiNet tried to stop it happening.
It means the 4726 Australians identified as pirating the film could receive letters from lawyers threatening legal action unless large sums of money are paid for a copyright breach, through what's known as "speculative invoicing".
Despite the ruling iiNet was yesterday claiming victory. The company said the fact that any letters sent to its customers would have to go through the court meant its customers would be protected against those sorts of demands.
If anything, the decision was more symbolic.
Personally I had a few emails - presumably from friends and others who downloaded Dallas Buyers Club - asking for clarification on what the decision actually means.
And at the moment the answer is: time will tell. We will get an idea how serious the Hollywood producers are if or when the letters are sent.
And even if the letters are sent, the ability of Hollywood producers to prove identify the alleged pirates - copnsidering many people can use the one internet connection - and them take them to court has some big holes.
Questions were also raised about the definition of sharing and downloading, sharing being the "seeding" element of file-to-file transfers.
But again, these are all specifics to be banged out over the coming months.
In other words, if you downloaded a copy of Dallas Buyers Club, don't expect a letter in the near future.
Another interesting point to consider is whether iiNet continues to take up these battles if the TPG takeover goes ahead as expected.
The company has in the past told _WestBusiness _ its stance on this pirating issue is in many ways part of protecting its brand. It is seen as the defender of the customer, the little guys who will stand up in a fight unlike Optus and Telstra.
But with a ruthless billionaire such as David Teoh behind the steering wheel, it will be interesting to see whether a long-winded, and no doubt expensive, moral legal battle will be considered a frugal part of the "administration costs".

Why Conspiracy Theorists Will Never Believe the 'Official' Epstein Story
Trust in gatekeepers—from media to government—has eroded to the point of making an "official account" almost obsolete.
By McKay Coppins
Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell this morning. (New York State Sex Offender Registry / AP)
The reaction from the online fever swamps was predictable enough. Jeffrey Epstein, the well-connected financier accused of underage sex trafficking, was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell early this morning, just one day after unsealed court documents surfaced new allegations against him and his high-powered inner circle.
The reported cause of death was suicide—but the conspiracy-mongers were already springing into action.
Within hours, #EpsteinMurder was trending on Twitter, as was #TrumpBodyCount (where liberals speculated that the president had offed his former friend), and #ClintonCrimeFamily (where conservatives accused Bill and Hillary Clinton of orchestrating a murderous cover-up). But the speculation was not limited to the fringes—the president himself retweeted a video suggesting Epstein was now dead because he had information on the Clintons.
As the day went on, prominent commentators, journalists, and political figures used their platforms to broadcast conspiracy theories, implicate their ideological enemies, or simply engage in the Twitterwide guessing game about what really happened—all of them working with virtually no concrete information.
Read: How the Epstein case explains the rise of conspiracy theorists
The MSNBC host Joe Scarborough tweeted, "A guy who had information that would have destroyed rich and powerful men's lives ends up dead in his jail cell. How predictably...Russian." His colleague Joy Ann Reid noted on air that the federal prison where Epstein had died was operated by the Department of Justice. "Let's just be blunt," she said. "William Barr's justice department is not one that you can readily, simply rely upon, and feel confident in. So what do we make of all this now?"
Clara Jeffery, the editor in chief of Mother Jones, called the fact that Epstein reportedly wasn't on suicide watch at the time of his death inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center "sketchy as shit." And former Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri tweeted, "Something stinks to high heaven. How does someone on suicide watch hang himself with no intervention? Impossible. Unless....."
Some saw Epstein's death as cause for a broad indictment of American elites. Sohrab Ahmari, the conservative op-ed editor for the New York Post, touted the wisdom of a bar owner he knows who'd repeatedly predicted that "our 'Eyes Wide Shut'-style ruling class" would "never let Epstein live."
Others, like the Fox Business host Lou Dobbs, took a more sharply partisan approach. "Epstein should have been at least on Arkanside Watch," he tweeted, deploying a portmanteau of suicide and Arkansas that was being used by Twitter conservatives to accuse the Clintons of foul play.
Amid all the fevered speculation, Mike Cernovich—a right-wing social-media personality and proponent of the so-called Pizzagate conspiracy theory—live-streamed his reaction to the Epstein-take cycle. Barely able to contain his glee, Cernovich seemed to revel in how some mainstream journalists were edging closer to his approach.
"Right now, in real time, mainstream media—they're going to have to adjust their operating software; they're going to have to adjust their mental model of the world," he said. "It doesn't matter how normie mainstream you are. It doesn't matter how credible you think you are." The official story of Epstein's suicide, he declared, "just does not make sense."
Ken White: The Jeffrey Epstein case is like nothing I've seen before
It would be easy to treat this frenzied reaction to Epstein's death as a sad case study in how conspiratorial thinking has bled into mainstream discourse. But finger-wagging feels inadequate at this moment.
As I've written before, every grotesque beat of Epstein's story—including, now, his untimely death—illustrates how America's culture of elite impunity, failure, and corruption has allowed conspiracy theorists to thrive.
For some, the initial account of Epstein's death did leave serious questions unanswered; suspicions of foul play—or at least mind-boggling incompetence—seemed natural. Indeed, by this afternoon, the attorney general, facing bipartisan pressure from lawmakers, announced that both the FBI and the inspector general would be investigating the death. No matter what facts emerge in the coming weeks or months, some observers will forever remain unconvinced.
Last month, after I wrote about the Epstein case, a certain conspiracy-obsessed segment of the internet became convinced that I was somehow trying to "gaslight" them—or perhaps even that I was a "puppet" serving Epstein and his co-conspirators. I received a wave of wrathful messages from strangers on Twitter and Facebook calling me a "pedo-apologist" and worse.
I considered trying to reason with them, to explain that they were misreading what I'd written. But I suspected engaging would be futile. Their trust in appointed gatekeepers and other people in power—from the media to government officials to the worlds of Hollywood and high finance—has been too fully eroded. Their paranoia may have been disheartening to me, but at this moment in American life, it seemed almost inevitable.


Still, received this for free on NetGalley, and thought: why not?
For the most part, I was pleasantly surprised.
But… despite the fact that I found this to be an interesting and entertaining read, it did not ultimately inspire me to try any of the many detox methods. I read about them and felt that they seemed a little hard, despite the author's effort to make them see doable and specialized to your specific needs. So, for me it's a 3.5-star for clear writing, concise, well-formulated arguments, but no in terms of making a practical difference to my life/lifestyle.

IOWA CITY, Iowa – – The University of Iowa baseball team fell to South Dakota State, 7-4, in 14 innings Tuesday evening at Duane Banks Field.
"I thought we tried to do a little bit too much in certain situations," said Iowa Head Coach Jack Dahm. "We did some good things, but unfortunately we did not get it done from an offensive standpoint. We need to take better advantage of our opportunities. We have to find a way to bounce back and get a win tomorrow."
After throwing a perfect first inning, the Jackrabbits tallied one run off Hawkeye starter Ricky Sandquist in the second. South Dakota State pieced together a double and a sacrifice fly later in the inning to claim an early 1-0 lead.
Iowa (9-12) answered, tallying a run of their own in the bottom of the second. Senior Zach McCool singled to right field to open the bottom half. McCool advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Andrew Ewing. With two away in the frame, Chett Zeise roped a single back up the middle to score McCool and tie the game.
South Dakota State (8-9) regained the lead in the top of the third inning. The Jackrabbits used a one-out single, followed by a run-scoring double to gain a 2-1 advantage.
For the second time in as many innings, the Black and Gold tallied a run to tie the contest. Back-to-back one-out singles by Mike McQuillan and Tyson Blaser put runners on the corners. With two down, McQuillan scored on an infield single by Ewing, tying the game 2-2.
With the game tied 2-2 in the bottom of the eighth, Ewing smacked a go-ahead two-out RBI down the left field line. Ewing tied a season-high with his second three-hit game and fifth multi-hit game.
South Dakota State answered, notching two runs off Hawkeye closer Kevin Lee in the top of the ninth to grab a 4-3 lead. The Hawkeye offense responded with a rally of its own in the bottom half. Zeise carded a lead-off walk. Keith Brand sacrificed pinch runner Patrick Harshman to second. Senior Trevor Willis then launched a game-tying double to left, sending the game to extra innings.
Both bullpens kept the offenses at bay with solid pitching. The Hawkeye offense had runners in scoring position in the ninth, 11th and 13th innings, but was unable to push across the winning run. In the top of the 14th with the bases loaded, South Dakota State's Eric Cain launched a double to right center on a 3-2 pitch to give the Jackrabbits the victory.
Sandquist took a no decision, throwing six and a third innings. The sophomore gave up two runs on five hits while striking out four Jackrabbits.
"I liked what I saw from Ricky (Sandquist)," said Dahm. "He really settled in and did a good job. That is a very talented offensive team that he was facing. He put us in a position to win the game."
Jeff Pacha took the loss, throwing a career-high four innings. The senior gave up three runs on five hits, while striking out a career-high four batters.
Iowa and South Dakota State conclude their two-game set tomorrow at 4 p.m. at Duane Banks Field. Admission is $3 for adults and free for youths and UI students.

Even an ordinary dog can have an extraordinary influence.
The alarm clock sounded. I didn't even have to open my eyes to know it was another dark, gloomy winter morning. Ugh. I groaned and yanked a pillow over my head. The day would be fine if I didn't have to get up, I thought.
Something landed on the bed with a soft thud. Kelly. Our cute, long-haired cocker spaniel mix. Only now she was acting more like a badger, burrowing determinedly under the covers to get to me. Not so cute. "Go away," I scolded. Undeterred, Kelly nuzzled my face.
My husband, Mike, gently shook my shoulder. "Time to get up."
Why bother? I thought. It was dreary and cold and I didn't have the energy to face the day. I hadn't just fallen into a rut—it was more like a ditch. A ditch I knew all too well.
Long ago I'd battled agoraphobia—a crippling anxiety about being in certain situations where I felt I couldn't escape. Just traveling in an airplane, train, bus or even a car might set off a panic attack, and the only remedy I saw was to avoid it. For a while, I couldn't even leave the house.
I was fortunate; after a couple of months, I learned how to better handle stress and worry. Gradually I got back out and involved in the world.
Lately, though, my old fears and anxieties had resurfaced. I didn't want to be trapped by them again, but I didn't know how to stop them.
My best friend, my daughter, Kate, was away at college. She wasn't around to coax me out, so more often than not, I'd see Mike and our teenage son, Andy, off in the morning, then hole up inside all day working at the computer.
Yes, I was doing my job, which I loved, as a freelance writer, but I knew the longer I stayed in this ditch, the harder it would be to get out of.
I could hear Mike and Andy getting ready for their day. Kelly poked me with her cold, wet nose. "Okay, okay, I'll let you out," I sighed. I forced myself out of bed and trudged down the hall, the dog weaving around my legs like a slalom skier.
I opened the back door, and out Kelly flew. She actually went airborne for a minute—her little legs stretched out, her long ears flapping, her tail like an exclamation point. I couldn't imagine what she found so enthralling out there. Yet part of me wished I could be more like Kelly.
Be like a dog? How crazy was that!
Shaking my head at my own foolishness, I shut the door and made my way into the kitchen. Mechanically, I poured cereal into two bowls and plopped them on the table. Mike and Andy rushed downstairs, gulped their breakfast.
"Got an early meeting," Mike said, giving me a kiss. "Talk to you tonight."
Andy slung his backpack over his shoulder. "I have basketball after school. See ya later, Mom."
Wrapping my arms around myself to keep out the chill, I stood at the door and watched them go off to work and school. God, help me live life like that again, eager to face the world. I stepped back inside, where I felt warm and safe. But also, I had to admit, a little lonely.
Well, I have Kelly to keep me company. I let her back in, grabbed breakfast—Diet Coke and a banana—and sat down at my computer. Kelly plunked herself at my feet and flopped on her back, her paws up in the air. Time for her nap.
If only I could relax like that! At least getting lost in my work made me feel productive.
I was deep into revising an article when I felt a nudge at my elbow. "Not now, girl, I'm busy," I said, not even glancing up from the computer screen. Kelly pounced onto my knees, sticking her nose under my arm so that my hand slipped off the keys. I knew what she wanted.
I could have just let her out in the backyard again, especially since I always felt a little nervous when I left the security of my house. But something in those big brown pleading eyes made me say, "Guess it's time for a walk, huh?"
The word walk sent Kelly into a frenzy of figure eights and loop-de-loops. She jumped up, contorting her body, trying to pull her leash off the hook by the door. I had to chuckle at that.
We headed down the sidewalk, Kelly bounding ahead of me. Everything thrilled her. She investigated intriguing smells around rocks and under shrubs with a delighted snuffle.
Her ears perked comically when she heard a car honk or a neighbor's cat rustle in the bushes. Not just her tail, but her whole body wagged at the sheer joy of being out in the world. Hmm...maybe being more like my dog isn't such a crazy idea after all.
The next day when Kelly nudged me, leaping for her leash and making loops in front of the door, I followed her outside again. Same thing the day after, and the day after that. I'd forgotten how invigorating the brisk winter air was. Or what a pleasure it was to wave to my neighbors' kids as they walked home from school.
I began watching Kelly more closely. When she flopped on her back for a nap, I took it as a cue. Time for me to take a break from my work...and my worries. Guess what? They didn't seem so pressing after I'd recharged my batteries.
When Kelly played with her pink toy bunny, I thought of ways to add some fun to my day. Maybe it was connecting with a friend on the telephone. Or going to meet my husband for lunch. Or cheering on Andy at one of his basketball games.
Kelly's an ordinary dog, a run-of-the-mill mutt. She doesn't perform daring rescues or assist the disabled or win blue ribbons in shows. Most of the time she just lies around and chews on old socks. But even an ordinary dog can have an extraordinary influence.
Look at the way Kelly's led me out of the ditch my anxiety pushed me into. She has given me a whole new attitude. Now every morning when the alarm goes off, I'm eager to get out of bed and discover the joys the day will bring. If that makes me more like a dog, well, then, I'm grateful.

TWO RING-TAILED LEMUR BABIES BORN AT SENECA PARK ZOO
Wednesday, August 17, 2016 10:56 AM
County Executive Cheryl Dinolfo and Seneca Park Zoo officials are pleased to announce the birth of two ring-tailed lemur babies. The babies were born on Tuesday to 6-year-old Selma, and the genders are still being determined.
"We are thrilled to welcome two new lemurs to the Zoo family," said Dinolfo. "The babies are a wonderful addition to the Zoo and are sure to captivate guests for the rest of the summer and beyond."
The babies are doing well and are on exhibit for the time being. "The natural processes of nursing and development are already underway," says Zoo Director Larry Sorel. "Animal care staff will be carefully monitoring the babies' progress as they grow."
The ecosystem of Madagascar, where ring-tailed lemurs are native, is a conservation priority for the Seneca Park Zoo, which has been raising funds and doing field work in the African island nation for decades. Recently, Party Mad at the Zoo and the Jungle Jog 5K both raised important funds for education and conservation programs in Madagascar. The Zoo Society's docents also continue to partner with lemur expert Dr. Patricia Wright to fund and participate in research at the Centre Val Bio in Madagascar's Ranomafana National Park. The Zoo Society's One Cubic Foot initiative also made an impact there in May, replicating its citizen science project for two weeks with nationally renowned photographer David Liittschwager.
Selma and 8-year-old Bradigan came to the Zoo in 2014 from the Bramble Park Zoo in South Dakota and Indianapolis Zoo, respectively. Ring-tailed lemurs are endangered in their natural range due to habitat loss and hunting.
"We hope that guests coming to visit the newborn lemurs will be inspired to take action on behalf of the conservation of this endangered species," says Zoo Society Executive Director Pamela Reed Sanchez.

Summer is the perfect time to head to the beach with your best friend, soak up some rays, read a book, listen to your summer jams… we wanted to bring that feeling to you seniors, inspire you to get out and enjoy the beautiful beaches and parks in Florida. This is going to be an extra special feature with Amanda and Taylor, so be on the look out for this best friends shoot.
Our summer senior sessions for the Class of 2013 are filling up quick. We suggest reserving your session at least 2 to 4 weeks in advance. Nothing against the beach, but it'll be the most fun you'll have this summer.
Last week, we beat the heat one afternoon with Central Florida teen Sabrina. We expected another hot afternoon like we've been having the past month or so, but some clouds came out for us to block some of that summer sun. We always come prepared, though, with an ice chest full of cold bottled water for everyone.
Sabrina has a fun sense of style—and a resemblance to some famous actresses. When we began editing this session, we both looked at the photos and thought to ourselves – Jessica Biel. What do you think, though?
If you're interested in having a fun fashion shoot, gorgeous portraits, or even a magazine-style beauty shoot—let us know! This summer is ramping up to be very busy for Foxtale, so make sure to schedule your session today.


Sometimes, more than one vertebra fractures, a condition called multiple compression fractures. Multiple compression fractures can lead to kyphosis, a spinal deformity when the upper back curves forward, creating the appearance of a hunchback. In some cases, a person who experiences multiple compression fractures may notice a loss of height.
Compression fractures usually occur in the thoracic (middle) or lumbar (lower) spine.
A compression fracture that occurs suddenly can be very painful, but a compression fracture that occurs gradually may cause pain only gradually.
Rarely, compression fractures occur in healthy vertebrae as a result of trauma.
More often, the vertebra with a compression fracture is already weakened. The most common cause of weakening is osteoporosis, a condition that causes weak and brittle bones. Osteoporosis is most common in elderly women, and it is for this reason that elderly women are the group most affected by compression fracture.
Less frequently, the vertebra may be weakened by a tumor or infection.
Since compression fractures usually occur in weakened bone, doctors may order additional tests to look for osteoporosis, tumor or infection.
For the most part, nonoperative treatments are recommended for compression fracture. These treatments include pain medications and modified physical activity. The doctor may recommend wearing a brace that helps support the back and prevents bending forward, and therefore removes pressure from the fractured vertebrae.
Vertebral fractures typically take about three months to fully heal. The doctor will order X-rays monthly to see how the fracture is healing.
If the fracture is caused by osteoporosis, treatment of the osteoporosis can help prevent additional fractures. Treatment may include calcium and vitamin D supplements, bisphosphonates, and weight bearing exercises.
Surgery may be necessary if the spine appears to be unstable. The surgeon may perform a vertebroplasty or a kyphoplasty. During these surgical procedures, the surgeon injects a cement mixture into the fractured bone to stabilize the fracture, treat pain, and prevent a spinal deformity from progressing.
In some cases, the surgeon may need to perform a spinal stabilization and fusion surgery to support the spine until the bone heals. During these procedures, the surgeon places a bone graft across the area of instability, allowing the vertebrae to fuse (grow together). The surgeon secures the spine with an internal fixation implant, using screws and rods, to hold the vertebrae in place while the bone heals.
The surgeon will tailor the treatment to each individual patient and specific presentation.
Drs. Paul C. McCormick, Michael G. Kaiser, Peter D. Angevine, Alfred T. Ogden, Christopher E. Mandigo, Patrick C. Reid and Richard C.E. Anderson (Pediatric) are experts in treating compression fractures. They can also offer you a second opinion.
