In 2010, huddled in a dimly lit off-campus Cedarville apartment, a small group of intellectuals and sometimes-miscreants had an idea for a project. A newspaper that would give voice to the ideas and individuals that were constrained to the shadows by the dominant evangelical culture permeating Cedarville's classes, sermons, and dorms. A project that would give a bold platform to those who brazenly attached their names to their contributions, and a project that would provide an anonymous voice to those who could not for fear of institutional and social backlash. On that night, The Ventriloquist was born.
Through the past five years, The Ventriloquist has changed hands and leadership several times, as its original founders graduated and passed it off to a new generation of intellectual insurgents, who in turn passed it off again. The project has battled funding troubles, campus backlash, and even physical confiscation by university officials. But through this process, it has remained alive, a rhizome that pops up again every time a stem is chopped off, fueled by the unconstrained freedom of voice granted by the Internet.
The current Cedarville students have chosen to take another path at this juncture. They have started their own publication, The Foil, to get a fresh start and disassociate from the legacy and stigma of the Ventriloquist moniker on Cedarville's campus. But I believe that The Ventriloquist's mission is still a necessary one: a publication occupying the space at or outside the border of evangelical Christianity, where thousands of students at dozens of Christian colleges and universities struggle to understand their faith (or lack thereof) in juxtaposition to the Christian culture within and the turbulent culture without.
With this goal in mind, I have assembled a team of contributors from Christian colleges and universities across the country. The Ventriloquist is evolving - it is becoming an online publication spanning a spectrum of Christian colleges and universities, from Cedarville to Calvin to Wheaton to Biola. We will no longer publish issues; we will publish a consistent stream of articles, responses to contemporary cultural events, and news coverage of Christian colleges and universities. Unconstrained by the administration or culture of any one institution, we hope to become a space where a diverse set of voices are welcome to contribute. And, as we always have, we welcome contributions from all in the community, regardless of sex, gender, race, religious beliefs, or any other category. Those who are still attend Christian colleges and universities are welcome to publish anonymously; those who are willing to affix their names to their articles are encouraged to do so.
I am excited for the next phase of The Ventriloquist and can't wait to see the discussions and ideas brought forth by our new contributors. As always, if you would like to submit an article, you may send it to ventriloquistpaper@gmail.com for consideration and publication. And if you would like to follow along as we publish new, insightful content, you can follow us on Facebook or Twitter.

I have had a pair of these chairs for some time. They have lasted really well - left outside through several winters with no damage. I have always found them very comfortable and convenient, as they are light and easy to move around. After some searching, I was delighted to find them on Rinkit. I really only wanted two, so it would have been good if they could be bought in pairs. However, as they are not overpriced for the quality I ordered 4 and risked the green option (my previous ones are grey). They arrived quickly and in good condition. I am also delighted with the colour - a really nice lime green. They are brighter than they look in the picture, but look fabulous against lush planting.

Antonio Reynoso, the Hispanic who could make history if he is elected as president of the borough of Brooklyn
The current local legislator of District 34 who defines himself as Afro-Caribbean, aims to continue fighting for decent housing
Photo: Antonio Reynoso Campaign / Courtesy
If, as several polls point out, Antonio Reynoso is elected as Democratic candidate for the presidency of Brooklyn, among the twelve candidates vying to replace Eric Adams, who in turn aspires to be the Mayor of New York City, it would be clearly an electoral achievement doubly historical.
Reynoso, 38, from Dominican parents and who eight years ago was part of the progressive outpost that received enough votes to become one of the younger councilors in the City Council, could now be close to preside over the most populous county in the Big Apple. And one of the three largest in the country.
To win the blue party nomination ticket, it would be not only a fact without antecedents for a Hispanic politician to obtain that position of the municipal executive power in Brooklyn, defined by many as a "minialcalde", but it would be the first local election in which a politician of Latino origin stands, outside the districts bastions of Caribbean migrations or Latin American in the Big Apple.
There, in the previous electoral processes, the votes of the Hispanic communities did not exceed 12%. And, in general, it is a county inhabited by 2.5 million people, where more than 81% are white and African American.
"I have the highest opportunity to be the president of this county, where I have been building a proposal based on achievable programs. I have a serious project for the poor communities of Brooklyn. I have advanced in the preferences for the integrating power of my political proposal. I have not focused my campaign based on my identity as a Hispanic ", underlined The newspaper.
The current councilor of the Brooklyn District 34 that covers Williamsburg, Bushwick y Ridgewood always highlights in his speeches his immense "Latino pride" and defines himself as "Afro-Caribbean", but he describes that in this battle to win the votes, he has always traveled the path of creating a battery of ideas in a territory where the majority of the voters are not neither Dominican, nor Puerto Rican, nor Latin American.
"In the final hours of this contest, from another perspective, we can assure you that my triumph in Brooklyn is the only close option so far to maintain an important representation of Hispanic power in New York City in one of the counties, "Reynoso said.
All the polls indicate that in effect, the rest of the applicants of Latino origin, who appeared in the contest to preside over the destinies of the counties of El Bronx, Queens, Manhattan y Staten Island They show great complications to receive the majority of the vote, to dominate the Democratic suffrage.
"Hard fights"
This politician who has a degree in Political Science, assures that never received financing from real estate developersTherefore, it would be able to direct its actions towards a genuine policy of decent housing accessibility for the most vulnerable communities in that county.
"I haven't been nominated for a dollar from the great Brooklyn landlords. That sets me free. That is why I will have the morals to create a strategy that allows communities of color and the poorest to no longer be displaced. This is key to our vision of post pandemic recovery ", he said.
The presidents of the five boroughs, are consulted for the comprehensive budgets of the city of New York, comment on the decisions of land use change and zoning in their district and appoint some members of the community boards.
Reynoso self-values that he has always been linked to "tough fights" as a local legislator and organizer of community alliances.
"We have faced environmental racism in North County. Precisely the African Americans and Hispanics live near polluting industries and have three times more likely to suffer from asthma. We have taken on private developers to protect affordable housing. And, in addition, we have been in the first line for the reform of the police ", he recalled.
Regarding the role of the New York City Police Department (NYPD), one of the most thorny and controversial In all instances of power in the Big Apple, Reynoso is on the side of those who believe in the equation: less police, more investment in poor communities.
"Our dynamic will continue to be to deepen community intervention programs and the development of small businesses, which allow us to reach the core of poverty, to help overcome it. It is not about sending more officers to our neighborhoods. If we analyze it well, where there are fewer police officers, there are more security ", concluded.
For the Brooklyn presidency
12 candidates they are on the list of the primary elections to choose the Democratic candidate who will compete to replace Eric Adams in the presidency of the borough of Brooklyn.
3 applicants They have the best chances of reaching the Democratic nomination according to a crossing of several polls, in no order of preference in some reports, the following names always top the lists: the councilor Antonio Reynoso, the assemblywoman Jo Anne Simon and the councilor Robert Cornegy.
335,675 Voters participated in the 2017 elections where Eric Adams was reelected as Brooklyn Borough President, of which the 82.96% voted for the Democratic Party.
42.6% of Brooklyn's population is made up of whites and 34.2% African-American.

Recently, the price movements of Solana, Cardano, Shiba Inu, and Avalanche were quite astonishing in the marketplace.
Shiba Inu has also attracted more and more investors recently, as the trading volume and market cap of the token has constantly increased as well.

SCP-335-FR
FR Hub » SCP-335-FR
rating: +13+–x
Item #: SCP-335-FR
Threat Level: Green ●
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-335-FR is a single-use object; therefore, recovered used instances are to be considered neutralized. The joint efforts of the SCP Foundation and the French National Gendastrerie are currently focused on locating and dismantling functioning SCP-335-FR manufacturing networks, as well as confiscating and censoring any photo, video, or memory evidence of the existence of SCP-335-FR.
As SCP-335-FR has so far only been used in situations involving clashes between demonstrators and police forces during riots and demonstrations in metropolitan France, the apprehension and management of SCP-335-FR in the field are to be conducted on-site by the National Gendastrerie, who are often present and trained in the neutralization of the object.
Description : SCP-335-FR refers to a series of PLMP tear gas grenades, models 7B and 7C, produced by Nobel Sport and modified by hand to confer abnormal properties. It seems that SCP-335-FR instances are created from used tear gas grenades, and that their anomalous alteration originates from several isolated stakeholders rather than a single individual. In addition, it has been observed that SCP-335-FR instances no longer contain their original tear gas capsule, but instead contain a mixture of 2-chlorobenzylidene malonitrile1, silver nitrate, incense and bone powder. The inner walls of the grenades are frequently engraved with seals similar to those used in esoteric Islamic practices.
When SCP-335-FR is used, it produces a cloud of silver gas. This gas has the same irritating properties as standard tear gas and can cause respiratory, ocular, and dermatological burns as well as nausea and spasms when inhaled. In contrast to standard tear gas, the smoke does not dissipate naturally and will instead agglomerate to form a semi-tangible humanoid entity, hereafter referred to as SCP-335-FR-1. Once this entity is formed, it will take between eight and fifteen minutes to dissipate into the surrounding air.
SCP-335-FR-1 is generally composed of a humanoid bust, arms, and head, two to three times the size of a standard human being. Some records of the National Gendastrerie also mention entities with disproportionate extremities in several cases, and in one case an unusual head. SCP-335-FR-1 corresponds to the standard description of a djinn; however, the Union of Djinns, Genies and Associated Wish-Granters denies any knowledge of SCP-335-FR-1 and states that these entities are not listed in their Ethereal Register.
SCP-335-FR is primarily used as a diversionary tool by demonstrators against law enforcement officers who are unaware of the existence of the anomalous. To date, it has not possible to determine with certainty whether the distraction SCP-335-FR causes is due to an anomalous effect or simply the bewildering nature of the phenomenon.
The following effects were observed across twelve uses of SCP-335-FR:
28% of targets witnessing the phenomenon withdrew (fled, requested reinforcements with the intention to return).
25% showed disbelief (believed SCP-335-FR to be fake, or displayed Filbuson Syndrome) and continued their operations normally.
6% lost consciousness (vague discomfort, anxiety attacks, fainting).
41% attempted to contact SCP-335-FR-1 and make a wish, abandoning their operations.
When in the presence of one or more individuals, SCP-335-FR-1 will typically offer its spectators the opportunity to grant one of their wishes. However, its ability to perform such an act has never been observed, and it is currently assumed that SCP-335-FR-1 is incapable of doing so. Once a wish has been formulated, SCP-335-FR-1 will congratulate its interlocutor on their choice of "judicious" wish and will begin a long monologue of congratulation and encouragement, taking up the language and rhetoric elements of several well-known French politicians. This will continue until the total dissipation of SCP-335-FR-1, the requested wish never having been granted.

SQL Server 2008: end of support
April 9, 2019 Mats BluekensMicrosoft SQL Server
From 2008 onwards, Microsoft appears every two years with a new version of SQL Server. A new version means new functions, a better security model, a more efficient database engine, etc. For example, you can, unlike previous versions, install SQL Server 2017 on Linux and Docker.
Since there are many changes in the SQL landscape, this also means that the support for the previous versions does not remain endless. With effect from July 9, 2019, Microsoft will terminate 'Extended Support' for SQL Server 2008. From that moment on, common problems can only be solved by using Self-help Online Support (which is usually available for a minimum of 12 months after the termination), own knowledge, FAQ, troubleshooting tools and other sources. The termination means no more updates and no more support, but more security and compliance issues for companies that do not migrate to newer options. The following table shows when which SQL Server version ends up in 'Extended Support' and when they are end of life, meaning when 'Extended Support' stops.
SQL Server Version Release Date End of Mainstream Support End of Extended Support
SQL 7 Mar 01 1999 Dec 31 2005 Jan 11 2011
SQL 2000 Nov 30 2000 Apr 8 2008 Apr 9 2013
SQL 2005 Jan 14 2006 Apr 12 2011 Apr 12 2016
SQL 2008 Nov 6 2008 Jan 14 2014 Jul 9 2019
SQL 2008 R2 Jul 20 2010 Jan 14 2014 Jul 9 2019
SQL 2012 May 20 2012 Jul 11 2017 Jul 12 2022
SQL 2014 June 5 2014 Jul 9 2019 Jul 9 2024
SQL 2016 June 1 2016 Jul 13 2021 Jul 14 2026
SQL 2017 Sep 29 2017 Oct 11 2022 Oct 12 2027
Mainstream support vs extended support
During the 'Mainstream Support', you receive full support: service packs, cumulative updates and hotfixes are all available. After a period of 5 years, the version ends up in 'Extended Support'. This means that Microsoft stops adding new features, stops expanding support, and the service packs are not available anymore. The cumulative updates will decrease but the hotfixes will still be available.
A hotfix fixes a single issue, and has not been extensively tested.
A cumulative update is a rollup of several hotfixes, and has been tested as a group.
A service pack is a rollup of several cumulative updates, and in theory, has been tested even more than cumulative updates.
Our recommendation is to upgrade to a higher version, with the most recent version being Microsoft SQL Server 2017 (14.x). Why do we recommend that? Well, it is obvious the higher the version, the longer your SQL Server can profit from support without migrating. Depending on the client's choice, it is possible to make the decision between on premises or the cloud.
A direct upgrade from the following Microsoft SQL versions is possible to Microsoft SQL Server 2017:
SQL Server 2008 SP4 or later
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 or later
SQL Server 2014 or later
Upgrading to Microsoft SQL Server 2014 and Microsoft SQL Server 2016 is also possible. A side note is that Microsoft SQL Server 2014 will also end up in extend support on July 9, 2019. So if possible, we advise you to upgrade to the most recent version.
If, due to circumstances, the database still has to run on version Microsoft SQL Server 2008, there are the following options:
Migrate with version 2008 to Azure
If you still have a Software Assurance license, Microsoft offers the possibility to host their workload on Azure Virtual Machine. They offer Extended Security Updates for a maximum of 3 years at no extra cost compared to standard Azure VM prices.
A second possibility within Azure is to move the workload to Azure SQL Database Managed Instance. This does not require extensive security updates because this is a fully managed solution.
For customers who would like to stay on-premises and need extra time to upgrade to a newer version, a maximum of 3 years extended security can be purchased. But this option is only available for customers with a Software Assurance license, which need to be paid annually.
Any questions or doubts about how this will impact your Microsoft SQL Server environment? Missing some additional details? Just ask us for more information or help about an upgrade or extension of support for Micorosoft SQL 2008. Contact us by phone: +32 3 450 67 89, via e-mail: info@monin-it.be or by filling in the form on this page.

Vancouver couple donate $60-million to esteemed Arctic Inspiration Prize

Published January 31, 2018 Updated January 31, 2018
A philanthropic couple from Vancouver has donated their entire fortune to support the longevity of an esteemed Arctic research award.
Sima Sharifi and husband Arnold Witzig announced Wednesday that they will give $60-million to the Arctic Inspiration Prize (AIP). The couple, in their 60s, founded the prize in 2012 after falling in love with Canada's North and have since financed annual awards – which now total $3-million a year – that support teams of Arctic researchers. Their new donation ensures the sustainability of the prize long into the future.
"We wanted to inspire, enable and somehow celebrate all these achievements of the people in the North," Mr. Witzig said in an interview with The Globe and Mail.
"Without having grassroots and youth really participate and come forward with their own ideas, you can try as much as you want as a government, it won't work. Here, we thought the prize could step in and really contribute."
The prize gives groups of Arctic researchers financial support to study opportunities or challenges for the Canadian Arctic, including educational, health, environmental and economic issues. The prize, which awards multiple teams from $100,000 to $1-million, was established in 2012 by Mr. Witzig and Ms. Sharifi. The 2018 laureates were recognized Wednesday night at an AIP awards ceremony in Ottawa, where the organization also unveiled its new $60-million donation.
Kevin Kablutsiak, a 2013 laureate who is now executive director of the AIP, said the evolution of the prize over only a matter of years is "tremendous."
"From my own perspective, being Inuk from Canada, from the Arctic, and seeing Arnold and Sima being so generous and giving of everything they have to the Arctic, it's really hard to fully say and express the gratitude that I feel and that many of us feel," said Mr. Kablutsiak.
"Some of these projects that have won would normally never get any kind of money that they get from AIP from elsewhere."
Mr. Witzig and Ms. Sharifi's fascination with the Arctic stems from the early days of their relationship. The couple met online shortly after Mr. Witzig, a Swiss architect, sold his European business and immigrated to Canada in 1999. They took one of their first trips as a couple to Iqaluit, where they took part in North Pole expedition training.
Ms. Sharifi, who came to Vancouver in 1986 as a refugee from Iran, felt immediately connected to the Indigenous peoples of the North. Having faced discrimination as a member of an ethnic minority in Iran, she understood the struggles of Canada's Indigenous peoples.
"When I am among the Indigenous peoples, I feel as if I am at home," said Ms. Sharifi.
In the years to come, the couple spent more time exploring the Arctic. Mr. Witzig skied the polar regions while his wife completed her PhD in translation studies at the University of Ottawa. They eventually felt the need to give back to the land and people they had grown to love so much.
In 2011, they approached ArcticNet, a collection of more than 150 researchers from more than 30 Canadian universities, with a proposal: to develop a prize for Arctic researchers. The AIP was launched in 2012 and has since garnered the support of territorial governments, Indigenous organizations and corporations. The AIP eventually partnered with the Rideau Hall Foundation, which agreed to cover all the operational costs associated with the prize so that 100 per cent of the AIP trust fund could go to the prize.
Mr. Witzig and Ms. Sharifi have transferred all of their investments to the AIP trust and willed their property assets to the prize. A team of financial managers will invest the money accordingly and seek new support so the prize can continue to thrive.
For the husband-and-wife duo, the key to the prize's success over the past six years was more about earning the respect of the North, as opposed to the money.
"It's not the money that is now the big thing, trust is the big thing. It's this relationship, this working together, the fact that these values and principles have been accepted and believed," Ms. Sharifi.
Natan Obed, national Inuit leader and president of Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, said Mr. Witzig and Ms. Sharifi's investment enables Northerners to find their own solutions and create new opportunities.
"We know Northerners have the solutions to improve the quality of life in the Canadian North. Sima and Arnold's generosity and commitment to the North provides Northerners with financial support they need to implement their innovative projects that benefit northerners and their communities."

When you were growing up did you ever dream about becoming a rock star?
The lights flashing, the fans screaming, the music pounding you to your core.
As a teenager, I really wanted to learn to play guitar, so I bought a cool looking one from Guitar Center and fiddled around with it for a while, jammed with friends, and picked away at tablature from Black Sabbath, Metallica, and others.
I never took guitar lessons (beyond one classical guitar class that was offered at my high school), never learned how to read music, and never really even learned to play chords.
It was always a fun little hobby though, you know, trying to teach yourself guitar.
Like many things in my life, it sort of fell away with time. By the time I left for college it was a distant memory.
After leaving Colombia a few years ago, and before heading out to drive through Central America, I headed home to visit my mom. During that time I picked up her acoustic guitar and found my way back to that old familiar fretboard.
I became enamored once again picking away on those strings as I sat on the couch or was otherwise relaxing. Though it felt familiar, I had pretty much lost whatever little skill or coordination I had as a teenager.
I was basically starting from scratch again. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
Fast forward to today and I hadn't touched a guitar for a whole year, not since leaving Seattle.
The other day I finally went out to the Medellin Centro and visited a few music stores near Carabobo Street (which translates as Silly Face Street, ha). Where I found a cheap classical guitar (three nylon strings, three steel strings) made locally in Bucaramanga, Colombia for just 107.000 pesos ($33) with a nice padded case.
For a $33 guitar it sounds pretty good and plays great actually.
I've been talking a lot lately about building new and more productive habits, things like reading every day, exercising everyday, starting to run, and more.
I'm adding teaching myself guitar to that list.
Not just randomly picking about for a year, but actually LEARNING how to play the guitar.
Of course, there are nearly an infinite amount of things to learn and now unlike learning a language like Spanish, one never really finishes but is always learning something new, something more, and improving. It is a lifetime pursuit.
My goals are not to become a rock star like I daydreamed when I was younger. But something more modest, perhaps feeling confident enough to play a handful of songs for friends.
Why Teach Yourself Guitar Now?
1) Personal Growth: I believe we should always be pushing ourselves in order to grow, whether that is learning a new language, pushing yourself physically, or whatever the case might be. Music is great because it is a universal language.
2) Relaxing: Sure your fingers hurt and it can be frustrating at times, but it is also quite relaxing to just sit back on the couch and strum through some chords or bust out a familiar riff. Studies have shown that playing music releases dopamines and reduces stress.
3) Creative Outlet: It is always good to have some sort of creative outlet in life. I have writing, which I enjoy… But which can also feel like a chore at times. I like being able to pick up the guitar beside me while I am struggling with writer's block and find another outlet.
4) It's Fun: Most important reason of all, right? It's just a good time, and fun to watch yourself improve and progress (as with any other challenging thing).
One thing that I've really noticed is the sheer amount of amazing resources out there to help you learn guitar.
I remember the days of my Metal Method VHS tapes and pricey Black Sabbath tab books… Nowadays there is this thing called the internet with endless tabs and chords, YouTube videos with free lessons and song breakdowns, and even apps for your smartphone.
While I was messing around last year, I stumbled across GuitorBots, a free online resource that was sort of like Guitar Hero, but with a real guitar in your hand.
The program would run off of any computer and use your microphone to pick up the notes or chords you are playing. It was a lot of fun and I really could see myself progressing while using it.
After picking up my cheapo guitar, I was disappointed to see that GuitarBots was no more!
It has since converted into Yousician. It's pretty much the same thing, but this time as a downloadable program instead of a webapp.
They have also made changes to the structure of the program by providing two different tracks: one for rhythm guitar and one for lead guitar.
Most significantly, they have also added actual instruction in technique throughout the program, including short video lessons throughout.
They have taken a solid program (GuitarBots) and expanded upon it to make it something even more awesome.
I downloaded the program right away and after messing around with the free version (which limits your practice time per day), I decided to go ahead and purchase the premium version which allows for unlimited playing time.
I looked into private guitar lessons here in Medellin with Rock Solo and even though things are quite cheap here in general, one hour still runs about $13-15 for 1:1 classes.
Note: I did end up deciding to supplement my learning with a guitar teacher here in Medellin. It's once per week for an hour for about $15, and he comes to my apartment, so classes are very convenient for me. Though in Spanish, of course.
Yousician premium costs $10 per month, but considering how awesome the program is and how cheap it is relatively speaking, I figured it was a no brainer.
Yousician doesn't have licenses for well-known music but rather uses original compositions from a number of genres to learn the guitar. The music is pretty good, and it's always fun to play.
The breadth of musical styles exposes you to new techniques and helps you become well-rounded, instead of just endless pounding out power chords.
The program functions by basically scrolling through the tabs or chords, providing backing music, while you play along with the music.
It rates your timing and playing to give you a score by the end, and an overall point score, like a video game. You can see how your score compares to other Yousician users around the world.
You can enter in practice mode and slow down the songs and set to repeat the parts that are giving you trouble.
The program also features an extensive collection of user uploaded tablature from popular artists, allowing you to master the licks of your favorite songs.
It uses the same familiar interface as the lessons, and also allows you to slow down the songs in practice mode.
They also have weekly challenge songs with new original content of various difficulties, so you've always got fresh material.
Obviously, having just started I still have a lot of material to cover, but it looks like the lessons get up to some really, really complicated playing… Just check out this video!
As mentioned though, you can check out Yousician for free. It just has limited playing time and without access to the full song library of tablature for famous songs, but being that it is free, it is one of the BEST resources to teach yourself guitar.
Yousician is pretty fun and educational, and while they have some great educational videos, it isn't a totally comprehensive source to teach yourself guitar.
If you search online for learn guitar instructional courses, you will invariably see Learn and Master Guitar with Steve Krenz mentioned at the top of the list.
The course includes 20 hours of instruction, additional workshop sessions, workbooks, and jam along CDs.
I've only started working through the material and know that it will take me a long time… After all, it's one thing to hear the material and digest it, but another to make your fingers cooperate and do what you know they should be doing or to really internalize the teachings. The process of developing the fine motor skills and hand eye coordination takes time.
The full extended course costs more than $100 on Amazon, but again, when compared to the cost of private lessons, it's a real steal.
Through this course, I will be learning everything from the basics to how to read music, scales, different strumming patterns, and more.
I'm actually already starting to learn to read music, amazingly!
I'm excited to work through the materials and see how far I can take my guitar playing in a short amount of time.
Steve Krenz is an excellent instructor with tons of experience taking people from absolute beginners to competent guitar players.
I highly recommend his course to teach yourself guitar—check it out on Amazon.com, where you can see a ton more unbiased opinions.
Guitar Tuna is a nifty guitar tuner (get it?) for your smartphone… Which it works great for. But it is also much more than that!
Best of all it has some fun games to play to help you learn guitar chords and proves beneficial to teach yourself guitar, even when you don't have a guitar in your hands.
Each game has a limited amount of time and trying to answer as many as you can within that timeframe.
Initially it just starts off presenting the shapes of the chords with the corresponding name, you then get presented with the finger positions and have to select the proper chord name. You don't need a guitar for this, it's just helping you master the chord shapes.
The second game has you touching each of the finger positions for each chord and strumming the proper strings.
The third game is to train your ear by trying to recognize the chord name based on the sound.
You can play all of the above games in a few minutes of free time with no guitar.
The following need you to have your guitar in hand. Like Yousician (it's from the same company), Guitar Tuna uses your phone's microphone to recognize the chords you play to say whether you are right or wrong.
The fourth game shows you the finger position and chord names and has you play them on guitar.
The fifth game is playing from memory and only presents the chord title with no finger positions.
The free app has all the basic chords, including some power chords.
You can also buy the full app which unlocks many alternate tunings, and the full selection of chord games which gets much more complicated!
The full app is a steep $12.99, but thanks to doing lots of Google Opinion Rewards surveys, I had ample and unused credits available in the Google Play Store, and got it for free, essentially. Highly recommend the Google Opinion Rewards app so you don't have to shell out money for smartphone apps.
More recently, after dedicating myself to learning fundamentals with my cheap acoustic guitar, I got my hands on an awesome travel guitar so I can keep up my practice no matter where I am.
Since it is an electric guitar, I can actually plug my guitar into my laptop and use it to learn songs via RockSmith, which teaches you how to play real, popular songs.
Admittedly, I did not lock the format that RockSmith used to teach the songs, because it isn't like traditional tablature. I had to wrap my head around it, which took a little while by itself.
But once I got used to the little bars flying by, I found it to be as good a resource as any. I like the fact that it teaches you the songs in parts, rather than starting at 100% difficulty, it has you playing along with little bits and pieces and then continuously adds more notes as you play.
In fact, after you are playing 100% of the song, the notes begin to disappear, and you are actually, finally, playing the song from memory, not just reading along. This is HUGE, and something that no other software offers.
There are so many resources to teach yourself guitar out there, it's crazy.
Songsterr is a cool tablature website which features all your favorite songs. It has a player which scrolls through the song as you play and features the full band.
You can also isolate instruments from the band to more clearly hear the role you are playing.
The interface isn't "pretty" but it gets the job done. The site is free, but to get advanced functionality like slowing down the song, you have to pay.
Get a two-week trial of Songsterr premium.
He has tons of videos for hundreds of different songs where he breaks down the chords or tabs, strumming patterns, and more.
Marty really simplifies the process and tells you what tablature can't tell you.
Check out Marty's YouTube channel.
Justin Sandercoe is another YouTube based guitar teacher. He started filming lessons back in 2003 and has since amassed a huge library of lessons covering learning the guitar all-around and is an excellent resource for how to teach yourself guitar.
What is great is that he has organized his videos on his website in comprehensive courses, like his beginner's course or intermediate course, which are also accompanied with extensive written instruction, level-appropriate songs, and more.
The best part is that all of his instruction is absolutely free.
I've only just started digging through, but it looks really comprehensive.
Check out the JustinGuitar beginner's course.
No need to buy a metronome in this day and age… There are tons of online metronomes for free. Instead of an irritating digital beep, I sometimes prefer the drum truck metronome available here. If I do want just a simple metronome, I tend to use this one or the one built into the Guitar Tuna app mentioned above.
One of the most important fundamentals is learning to read music, something I never put much thought into when I was a teenager. Reading music at first is somewhat difficult, but I've downloaded a few apps that have helped me out.
MusicTutor SightRead is a nifty little app that shows you the bars and lines of music with a note and you've got to hit the corresponding letter for it. The mini-game has a time limit and you try to properly guess as many music notes as you can.
It's a simple silly game, but it really helps you to more quickly identify the notes and improve your reading.
Learn Guitar Notes is another little mini game, this time to quiz you on notes on the fretboard. It displays all the fretboard up to the twelfth fret and then asks you to identify all of the E notes on the fretboard, for example. It will go through all the notes. It's a challenging game, but the idea obviously is to not only know the strings, but deep into the fretboard as well.
There is also an excellent guest post on Tim Ferriss' blog titled How to Finally Play the Guitar, by using the 80/20 approach.
Dan over at the Tropical MBA has also taken an 80/20 approach to getting started with a guitar.
Do you want to teach yourself guitar? Do you have some favorite resources or tips and tricks for learning to play? I'd love to hear more!
Hey Ryan, I just want to say I have a similar background. I never took any lessons or did classical playing. I also never learned to read musical notes I just learned to read tabs and learned chords either from other people or from the internet, listened to music and played by my heart 🙂 Thanks for this nice article, it really gives courage and hope to anybody that wants to learn how to play and not spend a ton of money!
Thanks so much Paul, glad to hear about your background and experience… Learning an instrument is one of the most fulfilling things, and it's great to hear that the path you followed has turned out well for you.
I'm pleasantly surprised to see such an informative text on this topic. Not a lot of people give an effort to share a personal experience of starting al over again with playing guitar in older age. This is really useful. Love it !!
Very informative! I appreciate how you put all your effort to bring all those information your blog. It's great to see someone so passionate about playing guitar and trying his best to share it with people like me who loves music and is thinking of playing a music instrument real soon. With all you shared here, I think I'llbe picking acoustic guitar to start my journey in playing musical instrument. By the way, how many hours did you get to finish this blog?
Thanks Mark! Glad it was helpful.
Thanks for sharing valuable and detailed guide for beginners . Guitar players today are absurdly lucky. Not only they can find great quality guitars cheaper than ever before, but they can find a wealth of resources on the web . I'll be sure to forward some of my students here for something different. Thanks again.
Great blog, good to see someone so dedicated to what they love and trying to help people through music.

PS4 Free Games WARNING: Surprise E3 2019 download for PlayStation fans
A new PS4 free games update has been announced this week and it's available to download from the PlayStation Store right now.
A wave of new content has been revealed for Fallout 76, Bethesda's online-only title that came in for some criticism during its first year.
Devoid of the usual Fallout traits, like NPCs, some fans struggled to enjoy 76, while others couldn't get past its other launch problems.
Critical bugs and problematic AI left many unable to continue their adventures in the Appalachian Wastelands.
Bethesda has continued to support Fallout 76 and just announced a new range of content and game modes during E3 2019.
DOWNLOAD FALLOUT 76 FREE
And during the next week, gamers on PS4, Xbox One and PC will be able to try Fallout 76 for free.
This will include the new Nuclear Winter Battle Royale mode, which Bethesda says will be available via a sneak peek.
In Nuclear Winter, you'll take part in a 52-player fight to the death.
Survivors will rank up and unlock new and exclusive Perks, while also being able to deploy a C.A.M.P. and even launch nukes.
Playing and surviving in Nuclear Winter will be your key to progressing through the Overseer ranks and gaining access to new areas of Vault 51, where you'll uncover some of the Vault's mysteries.
It's unclear what this will include, althougb a new post from Bethesda does state that the Nuclear Winter info will be shared after the Free Trial is over.
"Nuclear Winter blends the competitive battle royale style with mechanics only Fallout can provide – from Power Armor and Perk cards, to C.A.M.P.s and wasteland creatures," a message from Bethesda confirms.
"Many of these mechanics have been adjusted to better suit this new gameplay mode and map size, including the stats of your weapons, armour, Chems and more.
"And while you can carry your Adventure Mode character into Nuclear Winter, their level doesn't affect how much damage you can inflict or receive.
"Everyone starts each match on an even playing field. You raise your damage output and increase defensives by tracking down weapons and armour as the match progresses."
"You can start with a new character, or you can bring a chosen character from Adventure or Survival Mode.
"Your character's physical appearance will carry over from Adventure/Survival, but none of your weapons or Perk cards will. You'll be dropped into Nuclear Winter clad in only a Vault 51 jumpsuit with your trusty Pip-Boy on your wrist, unless you've unlocked some fun outfits, which can be equipped from the start in the staging area.
"All your base game S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats will be brought into Nuclear Winter, but you won't have any of your Perk cards. Those will be unlocked as you play through the new mode. You also won't have any of your S.P.E.C.I.A.L. passive bonuses, as those would provide some players with an unfair advantage."
The Fallout 76 Free Trial week will be available on all platforms from June 10 till June 17.


1. Outline the incentive deals a firm might offer in order to achieve retail distribution for its products.
To reduce distribution costs a firm could supply in larger quantities to retailers in order to achieve economies of scale. The retailer will also benefit from lower costs by buying in bulk. However, only larger retail chains are in a position to do this. Ciro's larger rivals could offer incentive deals such as these as they had the finance to do so, which would make retail distribution a lot easier, but Ciro's sales slipped back.
Haagen Dazs was to be sold at a high price due to the high cost of ingredients and small-scale production used. To achieve retail distribution Reuben Mattus visited shops personally and gave staff a taste of his product. He promised to buy back any product that did not sell. By removing the financial risk of the outlet selling the product, gaining distribution became much more easier. This meant that Haagen Dazs could spread to New York grocers, then supermarkets and to national store chains.
2. Comment on the marketing mix used by Haagen Dazs.
The marketing mix falls under 4 categories: Promotion, Product, Price and Place.
The product was not promoted in the early stages of its lifecycle due to lack of desire to do so and little finance available. Mattus believed that promotion was inessential and relied mostly on word on mouth to generate consumer demand and increase awareness of the product, which was effective as by the mid-1970s the ice creams popularity soared. Mattus used below-the-line promotion by removing shops financial risk in order to gain distribution for his product.
The product itself was differentiated from others on the market. Fresh cream and all natural ingredients were used and with less air blown into the mix, the ice cream had a finer flavour and texture than that of competitors. To distinguish itself further from competitors, the product was given a Scandinavian sounding name – Haagen Dazs – and packaged differently – into pint pots instead of 2 litre packs. The different packaging stressed the distinctiveness of the product and therefore created a certain image for the products in the eyes of consumers. This would be vital in building up brand loyalty and enabling it to be sold at a higher price in the future. This unique selling proposition (USP) would give Haagen Dazs a distinctive market position from competitors' products.
As the product gained in popularity through the 70s, the remaining Ciro ice cream products were phased out to turn production capacity over to Haagen Dazs. In order to keep staff satisfied and well-trained Mattus developed the theme 'Dedicated To Perfection' which also covered production control and materials purchasing. Despite the fact that the company was growing, Mattus did not want this to be at the expense of product quality. A diversified product range was developed with a new range called 'Extraas' created, partly due to an increase in competition in the US. A 'dipping store' was also created to widen their product portfolio. In 1984, Haagen Dazs began to be manufactured in Japan and eventually became the country's best selling super-premium ice cream.
The price of the product was high due to the high ingredients cost and small-scale production and in order to increase profitability. This may have been due to the intermediaries involved in getting the product from the factory to the consumer. The degree of competition in the industry may also have been a factor. Cost-plus pricing was used in order to arrive at the selling price of the product.
The channel of distribution used to get the product from the factory to the consumer was at first New York grocers. Mattus decided to extend distribution from grocers to supermarkets and later to national store chains as he realised that rising affluence plus freezer ownership encouraged consumers to buy ice cream all year round. He eliminated the use of intermediaries and dealt with retailers personally. This would speed up the distribution process. He visited shops and gave staff a taste of his product. He promised to buy back any product that did not sell. By removing the financial risk of the outlet selling the product, gaining retail distribution became much more easier. They could not offer incentive deals like those of their competitors due to a lack of finance.
250 Haagen Dazs stores were developed in the US, each offering an opportunity for people to sample the products they could then buy from supermarkets.
3. a) Sketch a fully labelled product life cycle diagram to show the stages in the development of Haagen Dazs in America, using the dates provided.
b) What may have prevented the product from growing more rapidly in America?
The main reason for the lack of growth from the product in the American market was pressure from strong competitors in the industry. Ben and Jerry's produced high quality ice cream at high prices, similarly to Haagen Dazs, but was differentiated from Haagen Dazs by their product containing bigger chunks of chocolate, almonds or toffee. It also projected a much livelier image, which Haagen Dazs could not match, epitomised by one of its products names, 'Cherry Garcia.' The lack of promotion and subsequent lack of consumer awareness may also have been a problem coupled with the high selling price.
Barriers to entry would also exist in the market, as customers would already have built up brand loyalty with other companies.
The fact that the company did not have a traditional product, with its different ingredients and Scandinavian name may also have alienated the product from consumers who could not identify with its values on any level.
Haagen Dazs did respond to the increase the success of its competitors by developing and introducing comparable products within a new range called 'Extraas', which did revitalise their sales.
4. Discuss whether Mattus was too production orientated in his development of Haagen Dazs.
I believe Mattus was too production orientated in his development of Haagen Dazs. From his initial creation of the ice cream he focussed solely on the product, creating one with different ingredients to produce a finer flavour and texture. He also decided not to promote the product due to a lack of desire and relied on word of mouth, which was a risky venture, though this was partly due to a lack of funds. The 'Dedicated To Perfection' theme was also product orientated, as it focussed on staff and production control.
The approach did have its benefits, as the product did sell reasonably well. Mattus' determination that growth would not be at the expense of product quality meant that he neglected advertising the product effectively. Even when the company was sold to 'Pillsbury Company' in 1983 with the intention of developing Haagen Dazs internationally, it was only on the condition that they company's quality standards would be maintained. The product itself was modified further under the pressure of competitors – a new range called 'Extraas' was developed.
Due to the increase in competition they should have taken consumers needs into account by conducting market research and segmenting the market in order to identify their target area for advertising. This would have made them better equipped to identify, anticipate and meet the needs and demands of the market in which they operate. This would surely have increased sales in the US as well as internationally.
Had the company been more market orientated they would have been in a stronger position to meet the challenge of new competition entering the market, like 'Ben & Jerry's' and be more confident that the launch of a new product like 'Extr�as' would be a success.

Q: Velocity named parameters for a macro I have a macro taking several parameters. Some of these are optional and if a parameter is left empty it will replaced with default.
Now the question is how to make this as easy as possible for ordinary web designer. Is there any other possibity apart from my examples to handle this case?
Example 1:
The obvious problem here is the optional values.
#macro (myTag $param1 $param2 $param3)
...
#end

Example 2:
And here the problem is a possible issue when same macro is used more than once and all variables are not set again.
#set ($param1="value1")
#set ($param2="value2")
#set ($param3="value3")

#macro (myTag)
...
#end

A: As of Velocity 1.6, optional or named parameters are not supported.  There was a recent patch submitted with this feature so we might see it available in a future release.
In the meantime, consider passing in a list or a map of values.  For example you can pass in a map of params as follows (requires Velocity 1.5 or greater):
#macro(myMacro $p)
  item 1: $p.param1
  item 2: $p.param2
#end

#set($params = {"param1" : "val1", "param2":"val2"})
#myMacro($params)

displays:
item 1: val1
item 2: val2

To handle optional parameters, use an #if within the macro to check for the parameter.  Adding new elements to the map is a little messy.  Since the Java method "put" returns a value, you have to use #set to dispose of the return value.  (Otherwise it's displayed in the resulting text).
#macro(myMacro $p)
  #if(!$p.param1)#set($dummy = $p.put("param1", "default1"))#end
  #if(!$p.param2)#set($dummy = $p.put("param2", "default2"))#end
  #if(!$p.param3)#set($dummy = $p.put("param3", "default3"))#end

  item 1: $p.param1
  item 2: $p.param2
  item 3: $p.param3
#end

#set($params = {"param1" : "val1", "param2":"val2"})
#myMacro($params)

displays
item 1: val1
item 2: val2
item 3: default3

A: Here is a Velocity macro that takes two arguments, a color and a list of objects:
#macro( tablerows $color $values )
  #foreach( $value in $values )

$value

  #end
#end

Then you can use the macro in this way: :
#set( $greatlakes = ["Superior","Michigan","Huron","Erie","Ontario"] )
#set( $color = "blue" )

  #tablerows( $color $greatlakes )

Chantilly families come in all sorts of sizes
Sachi Chitre, Business and Online Manager
Families come in all sorts of sizes and dynamics. They have their imperfections, can be frivolous at moments and generally support each other in times of need.
Older siblings are the bridge between their family as they have a unique bond with their parents and their siblings. Students who are the oldest in their family are often considered to be role models to their younger siblings. While older children don't have anyone to look up to, except for their parents and sometimes extended family such as cousins, they are the first in their family to experience important life stages, for instance getting a driver's license or going to college.
"I like being the oldest because everything I do is new and exciting," junior Olivia Grindal, who has two younger siblings, said. "I feel protective over my siblings and I help them with school and friends."
Younger brothers and sisters can be bothersome at times to their older siblings, but they frequently look up to them for advice ranging from what classes to take in school to how to resolve arguments with friends.
"I like having older siblings I can go to for advice," sophomore Graceyn Jones, who has two older brothers including junior Garrett, said. "One thing that's hard about being the youngest is seeing my older siblings have more privileges, like having a later curfew or being allowed to make more plans than I am."
Being a middle child has its benefits and disadvantages. Middle children are able to be an older and younger sibling at the same time. They can give advice to their younger sibling as well as have someone to look up to when needed. Some middle children can develop middle child syndrome, which is when the middle child can feel excluded from their family. They can believe that their parents give more attention to their older or younger siblings, instead of them.
"I was the youngest of five and now I'm the middle of seven children," senior Renae Knisely said. "The pro of being a middle child is that when you mess up, your parents don't care as much versus if you were the youngest or oldest, they pay attention to you more."
Being an only child means having everything to yourself and not having to compete for attention from parents. Only children often have a close relationship with their parents, but they can get lonely at times with no siblings to share special moments with.
"I have a more direct relationship with my parents with no standards set in stone," freshman Tanish Dora said. "On long holiday breaks it gets boring and lonely as there is no one else to share ideas and interact with."
Every family has its ups and downs, the ability to support one another during sorrowful times, the power to create cheerful memories and be grateful for one another.
"They are very reliable and help with emotional problems I go through," freshman Nithya Muthukumar, who is the oldest of two, said. "I can count on them to make me feel better and cheer me up."

Jaguar has created its most powerful and extreme road car ever, with the launch of the 600PS XE SV Project 8. The supercharged saloon will cost £149,995 and be capable of covering 0-60mph in just 3.3 seconds.
Limited to 300 hand-built examples in left hand drive, the Jaguar XE SV Project 8 will have supercar performance to accompany its gargantuan price tag, with power supplied by a 5.0-litre supercharged V8. With 0-60mph taking a smudge over three seconds, Jaguar claims that this is the fastest accelerating production car it has ever built.
Capable of reaching 200mph, the Project 8 features a number of notable modifications over the standard saloon, with carbon fibre bumpers, huge cooling air ducts and a front splitter. The bonnet, which is also made from carbon fibre, gets a huge air vent to help cool the V8 engine at the front, while flared bodywork coverings, 20-inch alloy wheels and a huge rear wing completing the track look.
The all-wheel drive XE SV Project 8 gets double-wishbone front and Integral Link rear suspension with stiffer springs and manually adjustable dampers that will allow the driver to lower the ride height by 15mm when on track. The Titanium quad exhaust, meanwhile, will ensure everyone hears the XE's arrival, with Jaguar promising a supersonic soundtrack.
Inside, carbon fibre covers almost everything, from the gearbox casing, dashboard, steering wheel and instrument binnacle. The eight-speed quick shift transmission can either be operated by aluminium paddle shifters behind the compact steering wheel or by a central gear lever.
The driver can also tailor the throttle and steering responses or instruct the on-board computer to give the full octane experience, thanks to a dedicated track mode that will switch off the electronic traction control and body stability.
The Jaguar XE SV Project 8 will be available as a four or two-seater, with the optional Track Pack adding carbon fibre racing seats with four-point harnesses fixed to a retention hoop in place of the rear bench. If that sounds a little too wild for your family car needs, then a standard four-seat model will also be available.
The Project 8 will be the first hand-assembled car to emerge from Jaguar's high performance SVO centre in Coventry, but potential buyers will have to 'apply' for permission to get one by visiting their local dealer. That aside, the £150,000 XE is available to order now.

Q: Angular filter with OR operator I'm trying to build a filter from a range slider.
Is it possible to set when my range slider be on one of the positions to show more than one category?
With the code below I can filter using the range, but he puts on the filter only the first word and nothing more after the OR operator. Anyone can help me?
$scope.filterRange = filterRange;

function filterRange() {
    if (this.rangemodel == 1) {
        $scope.categoryfilter = 'web' || 'ecommerce '; // something like that!
    } else if(this.rangemodel == 2) {
        $scope.categoryfilter = 'branding' || 'video'; // something like that!
    } ;
};

I've already see the other post here, but still not getting how i can make this happen. =(
Thanks to Daniel, here's the working solution:
$scope.projetos = [];

$scope.filtroRange = filtroRange;

function filtroRange() {
    if (this.rangemodel == 1) {
        $scope.categoryFilter = function(projeto) {
        if (projeto.categoria === 'site institucional' || projeto.categoria === 'ecommerce') {
            console.log('filtrando');
            return projeto;
            }
        };
    } else if (this.rangemodel == 2) {
        $scope.categoryFilter = function(projeto) {
        if (projeto.categoria === 'branding' || projeto.categoria === 'email marketing') {
            console.log('filtrando');
            return projeto;
            }
        };
    }
 };

A: You can create a custom filter function like so:
$scope.categoryFilter = function(project) {
    if (this.rangemodel == 1) {
        if (project.category === 'web' || project.category === 'ecommerce') {
            return project;
        }
    } else if (this.rangemodel == 2) {
        if (project.category === 'branding' || project.category === 'video') {
                return project;
            }
        }
    }
};

Then your html would simply call this function as the filter:
