Sci-fi/Fantasy Styling + Marvelous Manis Pt 1.
Loved that Blonds review? Well, there's even more to report on, because the details are outrageous! Styling is a major part of presenting a collection, and the teams at The Blonds went all out.
Bright, toon-like eyes with doll lashes make Tweety bird ever-present, and are topped with Spock inspired eyebrows, thanks to lead makeup artist Kabuki for MAC Cosmetics. Nick Irwin of TIGI created the space-age statement-making and Tinkerbell reminiscent hair styles. And rounding out the look were these genius silver headbands with attached Vulcan-like ears.
I do hope they make these Vulcan ear headbands available for sale because, I would rock them in a heartbeat!
But the styling doesn't stop there. A major ongoing trend on runways has become designer nails. If you're not familiar with the genius that is CND (Creative Nail Design) be ready to be WOWed!
Inspired by animation and featuring toon eyes, scales, jewels, circuitry (..?!?!?!), CND rolled out 36 individual custom manicures! These miniature works of art need to be seen to be believed, so check out the gallery and let me know what you think! Which look would you rock?
Want to see some behind-the-scenes action? Head over to CND's site and check out this revealing backstage editorial video.
Look out for pt 2 of this post featuring a slew of geek chic nail art coming your way!

High octane conflict and Gordian knots →
Duration of final hearing
Posted on October 21, 2021 by suesspiciousminds
I don't think that this reported judgment does anything earth-shattering or makes any vital new legal points, but I felt it was interesting to see what's a known direction of travel regarding pressure on Court time play out in a real case, and one where I think the outcome would have been very different not long ago.
The case involves Lincolnshire County Council, who were the very wise / very foolish Local Authority who took a chance on a wet behind the ears young lad in 1994 and rescued him from being an office finance manager and turned him into a child protection lawyer… So I will always have fond thoughts of Lincolnshire.
https://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/Fam/2021/2813.html
Lincolnshire County Council v CB & Ors [2021] EWHC 2813 (Fam) (21 October 2021)
The case involves the death of an 11 year old, and what is to happen with his three siblings, aged 10 1/2, 5 1/2 and 3 . At this stage of the proceedings, those three siblings were living with the grandparents.
The central issue, although there are others, is whether the death of the 11 year old XE was a tragic accident, or caused by a parent. The stakes could not be higher in a case of this kind.
There are four possibilities of truth and outcome (obviously everyone involved works very hard to help the Court be in the best possible position of getting to the truth and that the finding made by the Court about XE is what really happened. But the process is not perfect. So here are the four possibilities
a) This was a genuine accident and the Court find that it was – which reunites the family and is safe
b) This was a genuine accident, but the Court find that it was intentional, which keeps the family apart and is also wrong
c) That this was intentional and the Court find that it was – which probably keeps the family apart and keeps the children safe
d) That this was intentional, but the Court find that it was an accident – which probably reunites the family and puts the children in danger
Each of those are really important for everyone involved, particularly the children. The stakes are high.
The LA and Guardian in this case argued that the case should be listed for a 5 day final hearing, dealing with findings on XE and welfare decisions for the other children at the same hearing, the parents argued for a separate finding of fact hearing and that the time estimate for this was 20 days.
I'm not going to attempt here to analyse who I think was right or wrong – I don't have enough material or knowledge to do that from just the judgment, but historically, I'd say that a case where the allegation was effectively murder of a child would generally take closer to the parents estimate than the LA estimate. It of course depends on what the evidence and disputed evidence is.
In very broad terms, we are nationally short of Judge time. That was the case pre Covid, and is even more pronounced now. There was a period of time in which it was very hard to conclude proceedings and have final hearings whilst all of the technical issues were happening, so delay in those cases had domino effects on the time other cases took. The Government and statute expects cases to conclude within 26 weeks. Pre Covid we were sort of around that figure, with some more complex cases taking longer. In December 2019, the average length of a case was 33 weeks. March 2021 was an average of 43 weeks.
So a 20 day case has two significant issues – One is that it takes a lot longer to find 20 days of Court time than 5 – for the obvious reason that you need to find a Judge who had nothing to do for a month, and there's not a lot of that going around. The longer you wait for the hearing, the longer the children have to wait for a decision. The second is that if you allocate 20 days to one case, that's probably 3 other cases that could possibly have used 5 of those days to conclude their own case, and that makes those 3 cases all need to wait longer. The other side of that coin, as I've already indicated is that the four possible outcomes in this case are all really serious for the children and rushing it might make some of the worst options (that the truth and the finding are not the same thing and the children are either kept away unnecessarily or returned to danger with optimism that they are safe) more likely.
So I don't know which, in this case was the right call. I'd probably have gone for the classic compromise of 10 days.
I'll instead set out the judicial conclusions, and let the readers come to their own views, particularly in the light of this sort of benchmark how difficult it may be to seek a final hearing time estimate of more than 5 days generally.
The Court's consideration starts with the welfare of the children, but this is not paramount, see DP at [24]. The inevitable consequence of ordering a lengthy fact finding hearing is that there will be considerable delay in the case and that will be severely to the detriment of the children. I accept Ms Hunt's submission that in very many public law family cases there will be an adverse impact on the children from delay, and that factor alone cannot lead to refusing a fact finding hearing. However, the importance of achieving an appropriately speedy outcome for the children remains an important consideration and that factor here is particularly weighty.
It is not merely that delay will mean longer without a permanent and stable placement, but also that the children, and especially A and B, will have to wait longer for the counselling to deal with the extreme trauma they have been through. This counselling cannot meaningfully commence until they are in a long term placement, whether with the Mother or elsewhere. I therefore consider that the delay to the children is a very weighty factor in this case.
It is apparent from Re H-D-H that the impact on court resources and on other cases is a relevant consideration when making a case management decision such as this, see [22]. The true question is whether the fact finding is truly "necessary" for the ultimate welfare decision that the Court has to make. If it is not necessary for that decision, then a fact finding hearing should not be undertaken. As the President of the Family Division set out in The Road Ahead (both 2020 and Addendum in 2021), in current circumstances the Family Courts do not have the resources to undertake hearings which do not meet the test of strict necessity. It is therefore essential that this test is properly applied, with appropriate scrutiny by the Court, even if the parties themselves do not argue against a fact finding hearing. The Court must be careful to ensure that there is a proportionate and effective use of court time. It is well known that the family justice system has come under very severe pressure during the Covid pandemic. Delays in the hearing of cases have become very much more lengthy and only through more rigorous case management will the delays be materially reduced.
The outcome in the present case is in my view clear cut. The factual dispute between the parents in relation to XE's death is a very narrow one, namely what DE said in the kitchen to the Mother and who left the taps on. Only the parents were witnesses to these two events, save possibly for A, and none of the other witnesses who the parents seek to call can give direct evidence on the matters in dispute. There is body worn camera footage and recordings of the 999 calls so the Judge will have the direct, and thus best, evidence of the Mother and DE's immediate responses at the time of the incident.
In any event, the demeanour of the parents, including what they said immediately after XE's death, as seen by the other witnesses, carries relatively little forensic weight. It is well known that people react in very different ways to tragic events, and whether the Mother seemed extremely distressed or relatively unconcerned will be of little assistance to a judge seeking either to determine precisely what happened to XE or the quality of the Mother's wider parenting of the children.
The evidence of the 20 or so other witnesses, whether police, ambulance service staff, or clinicians is therefore not necessary for the determination of facts by the Judge.
In respect to whether the Court orders a separate fact finding, such hearings will relatively rarely be necessary or proportionate. They necessarily build in a great deal of delay in the system and lead to a significant degree of frequently wasted resources. In a case such as this where the threshold findings sought go well beyond the area of factual dispute between the parents over what happened on the night of XE's death, I consider it unnecessary to have a separate fact finding hearing. The LA will have to consider alternative scenarios and prepare its evidence on that basis. That may involve a more complicated situation than if there was a separate fact finding hearing, but it will save a large amount of delay and duplication of effort.
I also do not consider that the case warrants a listing of more than 5 days. Again, I refer to the President's Guidance in The Road Ahead. It is essential that the Family Court uses the time available more effectively, and individual hearings take less time. In practice this means more focused cross examination, less repetition and careful scrutiny of witness templates in advance of hearings. This will put more pressure on advocates, and the Court, but that is the only way to achieve the President's intention of individual cases taking less time. If that is done in the present case, I see no reason why the hearing cannot be completed in 5 days.

B. whereas in December 2013, a political dispute within South Sudan's ruling party, the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM), escalated into an armed confrontation in Juba between forces loyal to President Kiir and those loyal to former Vice-President Riek Machar;
C. whereas following the internal armed conflict that erupted in December 2013, approximately 1,4 million people have been internally displaced, 500 000 have fled to neighbouring countries and approximately 12 000 children have been recruited to serve in armed forces and groups; whereas thousands of children have reportedly been killed, raped, displaced and orphaned;
D. whereas an estimated 4 million people are at high risk of food insecurity and insufficiency, with the UN repeatedly warning of a deepening humanitarian crisis and famine, should fighting continue; whereas coupled with a lack of medical care and infrastructure the situation looks set only to deteriorate;
E. whereas the UN Mission in the Republic of South Sudan (UNMISS) is now itself providing safe shelter to more than 100 000 internally displaced people seeking refuge from violence, and has itself come under attack;
F. whereas according to UN estimates, more than half of the population in refugee camps are children, who are thus facing significant threats to their physical security, development and wellbeing; whereas South Sudan's infant mortality rates are among the highest in the world and its education indicators are the lowest globally; whereas 400 000 children have left school as a result of the current conflict;
G. whereas parties to the conflict have attacked civilians based on ethnicity and perceived political allegiance, committed acts of sexual violence and carried out widespread destruction and looting of property;
H. whereas the different parties to the conflict in South Sudan started negotiations on 7 January 2014 in Addis Ababa under the auspices of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD); whereas despite previous agreements to cease hostilities, the most recent of which was a ceasefire agreement signed on 2 February 2015 in Addis Ababa, and continuous efforts by IGAD to negotiate a political solution to the conflict, fighting has continued, characterised by a total disregard for international human rights and humanitarian law, with no accountability for abuses committed in the context of the conflict;
I. whereas government and rebels failed to meet the deadline of 5 March 2015 set by IGAD to reach a power-sharing agreement and whereas the peace talks have been extended indefinitely; whereas the IGAD chief mediator has announced that the UN and the African Union (AU) may now play a direct role in the negotiations;

L. whereas on 3 March 2015 the UN Security Council unanimously approved a system by which to impose sanctions on those responsible for, or complicit in, continuing the conflict or blocking peace in South Sudan; whereas the sanctions also apply to those who target civilians, or attack hospitals, religious sites, schools or locations where civilians seek refuge, and recruit or use children in armed forces or groups;
M. whereas despite its parliament voting to ratify, South Sudan is not yet party to any core international or regional human rights treaties, such as the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights, the AU Convention Governing the Specific Aspects of Refugee Problems in Africa, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, the UN Convention against Torture and the UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women;
N. whereas the Statute of the International Criminal Court makes the conscription, enlistment or use in hostilities of children under 15 years of age by national armed forces or armed groups a war crime;
O. whereas a draft non-governmental organisations bill was under consideration in the Parliament of South Sudan which would restrict the right to freedom of association, making registration compulsory, prohibiting NGOs from operating without their being registered, and criminalising voluntary activities carried out without a registration certificate;
P. whereas schools continue to be used, inter alia, for military purposes, as occupation sites, or as places of recruitment; whereas as of the end of February 2015, 30 schools were reportedly still being used for military purposes;
Q. whereas excluding donor and humanitarian aid, South Sudan's economy is almost entirely dependent on the oil sector, with oil exports accounting for more than 70 % of GDP and about 90 % of government revenue; whereas revenues generated by the oil industry have fuelled violent conflicts;

2. Expresses deep disappointment that after more than a year of negotiations under the auspices of IGAD, no significant progress has been made; urges all parties to the conflict to reach a power-sharing agreement and fully supports the ongoing negotiation process, calling for an unconditional, complete and immediate ceasefire and end to all hostilities and to the immediate cessation of the recruitment and mobilisation of civilians; calls for efforts to find a way of achieving lasting peace and stability; urges the government and the rebel sides to engage in unconditional and all-inclusive political talks in good faith with a view to the successful conclusion of the negotiations; urges the continuation of efforts by the AU and IGAD to promote inclusive dialogue and mediation;

5. Recalls the commitment made in 2009, and renewed in 2012, by the South Sudanese authorities to end the recruitment and use of children in conflict, to release all children associated with government security forces, to provide services for the reunification and reintegration of their families, and to investigate grave violations against children; deplores the fact that this commitment has not been fully respected; calls on the parties to fully implement the guidelines set out in the action plan;
6. Calls on the Commission to assist in mobilising resources to help with the long‑term reintegration of children recruited into armed forces and those affected by the conflict, in coordination with the Office of the UN Special Representative for Children in Armed Conflict, UNICEF and other agencies;
7.

8. Urges the AU Peace and Security Council to publish the report of the AU Commission of Inquiry on South Sudan (AUCISS) on human rights abuses in the country and to follow up on its findings without further delay;
9. Underlines the fact that publication of the report is a crucial step towards peace and reconciliation; recognises that all South Sudanese people have the right to truth and justice and that hundreds of victims and witnesses of atrocities have made huge personal efforts to engage with the AUCISS, often taking significant personal risks in recounting painful experiences in order to contribute to a more complete record of the conflict;
10. Requests that the Commission and the European External Action Service actively support the implementation of recommendations by the committee of inquiry, including as regards the possible establishment of a hybrid court to deal with the atrocities, as suggested by the UN Secretary-General;
11. Welcomes the adoption of UN Security Council resolution 2206, which would impose targeted sanctions directly affecting those who have fuelled the conflict, and calls for its immediate implementation; underlines the need for the adoption of a comprehensive arms embargo at regional and international level to halt the supply of weapons to individuals and groups that have committed serious violations of human rights, war crimes and crimes against humanity, and to protect civilians who are at grave risk;
12. Calls on the Government of South Sudan to conduct prompt, thorough, impartial and independent investigations into human rights abuses with a view to prosecuting and holding accountable individuals suspected of crimes under international law and serious violations of human rights, including the abduction and recruitment of children in armed conflict and sexual violence against women and children;
13. Recalls the IGAD Protocol of 25 August 2014 which states specifically that individuals identified by the AUCISS as being responsible for serious crimes will not be eligible for participation in the Transitional Government;
14. Calls on the Government of South Sudan to urgently finalise legislative amendments which criminalise the recruitment and use of children, to use this legislation to prosecute offenders and to finalise the implementation of international agreements, including the 2002 Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and to accede to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court;
15. Calls on the Government of South Sudan to reject legislation that would restrict the sectors in which NGOs and associations can carry out their work, which would severely inhibit the development of society and humanitarian relief efforts;
16. Calls on the Government of South Sudan to fulfil its responsibility to provide for its people and encourage international donors to increase support for the aid effort and, given the scale and urgency of the needs, calls on the international community to convene a new international donor conference for South Sudan when all conditions for peace have been met and a mechanism of proper distribution of revenues is established;
17. Urges responsible management of South Sudan's natural resources to ensure that oil revenues do not fuel the conflict; calls on the negotiating parties to include transparency and public scrutiny in the oil sector in the peace talks and any final agreement, in such a way as to allow for the revenue from this resource to be used for the sustainable development of the country and to improve the livelihood of its population;
18. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Vice‑President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, the governments and parliaments of the Member States, the Government of South Sudan, the Human Rights Commissioner of South Sudan, the National Legislative Assembly of South Sudan, the African Union's institutions, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development, the Co-Presidents of the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly and the UN Secretary-General.

ATPM 12.04 - Segments: Copyleft, Right?
Gervase Markham, one of Mozilla Foundation's total of three employees world-wide, wrote recently in the London Times of his run-in with a Trading Standards Officer who had all-but accused him of ending capitalism and bringing down the western world. The civil servant, whose job is to ensure that traders are not cheating customers or selling counterfeit goods, contacted Gervase prior to taking action against a dealer they had "caught" trying to sell CDs containing Firefox. They did not like to hear what Gervase had to say.
The principles behind Copyleft (as opposed to Copyright) software such as Firefox were explained to the officer—that it is free and anyone can copy it and sell the media it is on. Gervase advised that any confiscated CDs should be returned. The Trading Standards officer responded incredulously that by making software free it became an impossible job to enforce anti-piracy legislation or to give advice to businesses over what is and isn't permitted. The officer couldn't believe that Mozilla allowed dealers to make money from something that people have free access to.
Around the same time as Gervase wrote his column, Microsoft announced a change in its licensing agreement that had almost the exact opposite effect of Copyleft and which would have better occupied the Trading Standards Officer. Now, registered users of Microsoft's operating systems have to agree that if they change the motherboard in their computer, they must purchase a new copy of Windows. This is because, according to Microsoft, the motherboard is the essence of what a computer is, with the CPU being the heart. If a heart transplant takes place it is no longer the same computer and so it needs a new copy of Windows.
While the first instance above is perfectly legitimate for end-users to copy and distribute software, yet looks extremely dubious to those charged with policing software copyright; the latter is perfectly legitimate but looks extremely dubious to end-users who have already bought the software and simply want to continue using it. After all, a computer user only needs to plug his hard disk into a different but compatible computer to recreate the look and feel (and soul?) of his computer experience. Is it not the software and how it is configured that is the essence of a computer, not the silicone widgets and electronic thingies inside? Using Microsoft's anthropomorphic viewpoint, one could just as easily say the power-supply unit is the heart of the computer by providing the energy that makes all the rest actually work.
Similarly, in the world of music, how many times will recording companies extract payment for the same piece of music? It is not inconceivable that we can be charged repeatedly for the music we bought on records, then bought again on cassette tape, and again for the CD version, and again for MP3 download. That's not to mention the three types of record (78, 45, 33), 8-track, mini-disc, and DAT versions we might have purchased. While the sound quality of the music on the different formats may, arguably, have improved, very often the quality of the audio device it is played on has actually declined. The difference between the sound from a cassette compared with a CD, over the noise of a car's engine and road noise, is hardly noticeable. How many iPods are plugged into powered speakers to become a roving hi-fi system to take the place of far better quality but fixed audio systems? Recently, the recording industry wants to make it illegal to make MP3s from our own CDs and presumably LPs, according the EFF.
Luckily, modern musicians are not so enamored with recording contracts as they used to be. Even modest computers are capable of providing multi-track recording and mixing, with all the post-recording tweaks that anyone could want. This doesn't negate the skills and experience of recording engineers, far from it. US-based musician Tim Carless, when he lived in Brighton, England, set up an analogue recording studio that deliberately used acoustic rather than digital recording. His success can be measured against the likes of Van Morrison who chose to use his studio. Multi–award winning UK band Arctic Monkeys spurned the usual channels to success, and instead released tracks on free MP3 sites before they were available for purchase. When they were on sale, fans paid for the same tracks they had already downloaded, pushing the band to the top of the charts.
Where does this leave us as Mac users? While officially frowned upon, Apple as yet does not stop us using the same copy of Mac OS on our desktop and laptop computers, although family editions of software are available to salve guilty consciences. Apple has nothing in place to prevent us installing GarageBand or the latest iPhoto on more than one computer, and apart from their programs aimed at professionals, Apple's software applications have no automatic, sneaky, phoning home. In the 1990s Quark's ubiquitous XPress desktop publishing software became the industry standard as much for the ease of copying it to multi-machines as for its abilities. One wonders if Apple will really rein in OS X for Intel on non-Apple computers or if they will only pay lip service to preventing it and hope to pick up new Mac customers as a result. Mac OS X holds a great deal of interest in the world of non-Apple, Intel-powered computers where forums on sites such as Slashdot are asking who will install it on their PC if it is possible.
It does bring up the question, though, that if we have already paid for the software, should we be expected to pay again for a whole new version if all we want to use are the features of our existing copy? It may be that our computer died and we have been forced to replace it with a new one that our old software cannot run on. An upgrade fee for compatibility seems reasonable, just as is paying for other upgrades in the lifetime of a piece of software. But Microsoft's insistence on linking Windows to one particular computer and defining what parts can and can't be upgraded without requiring a new copy of Windows is surely a step too far in their favor.
The crux of the matter is that copying software (and music) may be morally wrong but it isn't necessarily theft in a criminal sense. In the UK, software is covered under the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988, which makes it a criminal offense only if software is copied for sale or hire, imported into the UK otherwise for private and domestic use, possessed in the course of business with a view to committing an act which would infringe the copyright, or is distributed without proper license of the copyright holder. This goes for old, out-of-date software too, which is covered for 50 years. More recently the Computer Misuse Act 1990 covered hacking into computers and software, making it a criminal offense if the intention or action caused damage. But even if an employee made a copy of software and took it home, he would only be committing a criminal offense if he took it on media that was not his. If he copied it onto his own floppy disk (CD, DVD, USB device), no criminal offense was committed. As with all things legal, the Acts are open to interpretation and testing in court, but as yet this has not given any clarity to the situation regarding copying.
Around the world, the problem of copyright enforcement gets even more clouded. Under Islamic law, for example, there is no such thing as copyright, and traditional Islamic law treats infringement simply as a breach of ethics, although many Islamic counties have adopted copyright laws, which is unlucky for those who do breach them because they are at risk of amputation of their right hand. In North America, there isn't even any agreement between Canada and America as to what constitutes "fair use." In Canada "fair dealing" means everything is an infringement unless otherwise defined in law, whereas in America "fair use" means that not-for-profit use is okay. Under communism the means of production are owned by the people in the form of the state, and while an individual's creativity is recognized often in the form of a one-off cash reward, any further benefits belonged to the people as a whole—the state.
With copyright being such a minefield, it is no wonder that Gervase had a hard time convincing the Trading Standards Officer that they were wrong. They even questioned whether he was able to speak on behalf of the Mozilla Foundation, which is actually quite difficult to prove because Mozilla's whole existence is in cyberspace. He eventually settled the matter by asking the officer to take it on trust because, after all, they had contacted him at the e-mail address licensing@mozilla.org.

I have a powerbook and it came with 10.3.9 I also have a powermac that has 10.2.8 on it. I called apple to see if the 10.3.9 would work on the powermac and they told me it would not. I'm wondering if that was the official line but that it really will work. Any claification?
Jim - it might, but the reason Apple told you no is because what you are proposing is technically not legal. The license of OS X 10.3.9 is intended for one computer—specifically your PowerBook that it came bundled with.
And come to think of it, the OS X installers that are bundled with computers will usually only install on the same model computer. If you had another PowerBook, it would probably install, but it still wouldn't be legal.
The license agreement states that you own a copy of OS X for each computer—or you have a family 5-pack of licenses which you can purchase for less than the price of two single-user copies.
Actually, Apple does make some strides to prevent a license from being installed on multiple computers. True, if you go into a store and buy a box for the latest version of OS X, it will install on any supported Mac. The distributions of the OS that are bundled with Macs lately I believe will install on other machines, but only if they are the same model. For example, even though I protested on the grounds of licensing legality, a friend of mine wanted me to install Tiger from his new G5 onto his old G4 iMac. A message appeared that I could not install OS X onto that particular computer.
Thanks for your reply. I have just found out that when I restart my powermac from my ext. firewire Hd using my powerbook clone partition, well it works on my powermac just like it does on my powerbook. For some reason I can't print but everything else works.
I hesitated to go to the mac from a pc because I had lots of software for the pc. I also could install my os on any machine I had. The idea that you have to buy the os for each machine is not something I will do. I will just stick with what I have and stumble along. However, that makes me less loyal to the mac. It makes them look like they are just out to milk you for every dime. It would be different if I were a company, but an individual I believe should be able to use the leagally purchased os on any of his or her machines. I like mac a lot but am finding it hard to stay loyal as it gets real expensive trying to stay legal. Another thing that gripes me is that they are not trying to keep us 10.2.8 users up to speed on security issues. I feel they aren't interested in you unless you keep up with every os change they make. Just my opinion.
Software companies need to be realistic and make some distinctions between home users with multiple computers and businesses where multiple computers are actually being productive at the same time. Are individuals with a desktop and laptop supposed to feel morally bound to buy multiple copies when they can only use one machine at a time? Even in family settings (our anyway), the times when two computers are in use at once are rare, and even then the second user is probably a child doing homework. If you buy a boxed copy of the Mac OS it will install on any machine that's capable of running that version. You can install a box specific copy on another model by using target disk mode and installing through the original box. I think it's commendable that Apple does not impose network restrictions and it's also commendable of Adobe to allow a copy of Photoshop or CS2 to be installed on both desktop and laptop in their license. I think the Microsoft thing about the motherboard is hilarious––is that for real? Maybe they should just ask for donations.
Are individuals with a desktop and laptop supposed to feel morally bound to buy multiple copies when they can only use one machine at a time?
I think that is the case if you read through the "Read Me" in the installer.

Africa Scene: An interview with C.M. Elliott
InternationalLatest Books
Writing the Post-Colonial Crime Novel
By Joanne Hichens
Born in England, C.M. Elliott is the author of the Sibanda series, crime and wildlife adventure novels set in the African bush. She moved from Australia to Zimbabwe in 1977 and has lived in and around Hwange National Park for a number of years. Her first full length novel, Sibanda and the Rainbird, was published in 2013.
Congratulations on your second Detective Sibanda novel. Right from the start, I was intrigued by the title, SIBANDA AND THE DEATH'S HEAD MOTH, especially because of the creepy myths related to the death's-head hawk moth with its skull-and-crossbones markings. How does the moth relate to the text here?
The death's-head moth has stirred the imagination of the sensitive for centuries. The moth is said to have made its first appearance in Britain at the beheading of Charles I, a suitably spooky entrance. Bram Stoker stoked the spine chills by giving it a bit part in Dracula, and a starring role in The Silence of the Lambs cemented the insect into folk lore. In between, movies such as Un Chien Andalou, in which the surrealist Salvador Dali, had a hand, and the 1968 horror flick The Blood Beast Terror added grist to the growing legend.
The death's-head moth has adapted into a clever and cunning hive burglar also known sometimes as the bee tiger. I chose it to feature in the title because not only does it have an evocative name but its ablity to disguise and deceive is an appropriate symbol for the murderer in the story–a wolf in sheep's clothing.
We'll get to the baddies later. First, how did Detective Inspector Sibanda evolve as a character?
Detective Inspector Sibanda started life in a short story, and I knew instantly that he was someone I wanted to spend more time with. He has so far been sparing with his personal details but I have learned this: He is tall, athletic, commanding, strikingly good looking, and saddled with a short fuse. He was brought up in a rural environment, went to a good boarding school, and soon after joining the police force was singled out for an overseas training scholarship in the UK–a blue-eyed boy, no less!
But something happened on his return to blot his copy book (he keeps this information particularly close to his chest), and he was posted to the sleepy outpost of Gubu in Matabeleland north on the boundary of a large national park. This hasn't upset him at all, because along with his focus for solving crime comes a passion for wildlife (particularly elephants), birdlife and trees. The posting to Gubu allows him to indulge his love of the wilderness.
And like any good detective, the love of his life eludes him! This vulnerability makes him even more likeable, as does his wry reflection of his life in England.
Yes. The third passion in his life is Berry Barton, a beautiful, carefree girl with a tangle of blond hair. Oddly, he is unusually wrong-footed and insecure where she is concerned. His fears that he might find Berry dead "in some gruesome fashion" permeate the novel.
They met in England, became good friends, and spent most of their time together reminiscing about Zimbabwe. They made life tolerable for each other with their nostalgic talk of biltong, Mazoe orange and the first rains on dust–the missing sights and sounds of Africa. Both knew they were going home and that England was a temporary but necessary blip, so they sustained one another through their homesickness.
Tell us about SIBANDA AND THE RAINBIRD, the first in the series.
Detective Sibanda teams up with Thadeus Ncube, a rotund, digestively challenged, thrice married sergeant with a penchant for fizzy orange drinks and anything mechanical. This is just as well because the third in the crime fighting triumvirate is Miss Daisy, an ageing Land Rover rescued from the pound and given a new lease of life by Sergeant Ncube's mechanical genius. She's cantankerous in the extreme and given to inappropriately timed breakdowns; Sibanda is wary of her, Ncube admires her. Despite their differences and misunderstandings the three of them manage to solve a particularly hideous muthi murder, involving body parts and traditional medicine.
In SIBANDA AND THE DEATH'S HEAD MOTH, Sibanda must solve two murders: the killing of David Makhandla, bootlegger, and Tiffany Price, American nature conservationist and Rhino protector. David, in an original opening scene, is struck by lightning, but Sibanda's astute observation ensures that his death is investigated as a homicide. The second victim, Tiffany, ends up on the wrong side of "Africa's temper." Are these deaths both consequences of Africa's temper?
Yes. Africa can turn on you when you least expect it and has a sting in her tail worse than a scorpion–xenophobia, drought, poverty, corruption, in-fighting, inefficiency, and greed are some of her worst traits and all of them can cause her to hit out without warning. She doesn't have the benefit of a measured temperament or the wisdom of maturity and sometimes I wish I could prescribe the occasional Valium, but on the whole Africa is well worth living with. I'm not ready for divorce, at least!
Throughout SIBANDA AND THE DEATH'S HEAD MOTH references are made to Zimbabwe's problems – "toxic inflation." the "borders as rotten as a vagrant's socks." In real life Zimbabwean police are up against corruption in the ranks, let alone political corruption. What are the challenges faced by your fictional police outfit in a faltering Zimbabwe?
C.M. Elliott
All countries have their challenges, Zimbabwe more than most, but the population is resilient and of good cheer through the hardships when it would be easy to give in to despondency.
Gubu police station is short of everything, not only functional transport. Times are hard in the economically savaged Zimbabwe and a culture of make-do-and-mend prevails. Crimes are solved in the old fashioned way without the help of banks of computers and sophisticated software. Crime scene cameras, efficient forensics, and the paraphernalia of modern policing haven't yet penetrated the rural wilds of Matabeleland, but crimes are solved, none the less, thanks to Sibanda's instinct and genius. His legendary tracking and observation skills don't go amiss either. Sergeant Ncube adds wisdom, social insight, and familiarity with village gossip to the mix.
How do you reconcile the dour state of affairs in Zimbabwe with your light-hearted approach? It seems as if you had plenty of fun writing these mysteries.
As to keeping the novels light and good humoured, it's always best to moderate a bad mood with wit or a good laugh; shouting back rarely works… If my writing is humorous, it simply reflects the extraordinary people who laugh and joke their way through adversity. I didn't plan a comical series but the characters seemed more than up for it so I just followed their lead!
And so get back to your lively cast, we soon find out that Tiffany's life was complex with fraught inter-personal relationships. We meet her arch-rival in the love stakes, Amanda Carlisle whose "well-educated voice sends shivers down the spine of an English Duchess, and her fathomless brown eyes scare the cucumber out of a thinly cut sandwich." (I do love your turn of phrase!) Another fascinating pair is Bigboy and his Chinese wife, Li. Do you have any favourites?
Of all the aspects of novel writing, I enjoy creating characters the most. From the cast comes the psychology, hopefully subtle and satisfying. Sometimes the characters drive the plot all on their own and I start to wonder what part I'm playing in the creativity process. I'm not sure I can choose a favourite. I could tell you who I like the least but that might give the game away…
One of the antagonists, Andries Nyathi, is a fascinating study of a poacher with whom one actually feels a little sympathy. On one hand his killing of elephant and other creatures is abhorrent, on the other he lives off the land and only kills from necessity. We don't generally have sympathy for poachers, so this is an interesting character development. Can you comment on this?
An elephant hunt
I hadn't thought of Andries, the poacher, as an antagonist but you've hit the nail on the head. He is the closest character to Sibanda and in some ways his alter ego and a worthy adversary. It is easy to become emotional about poaching. For some, it is life or death stuff, the difference between feeding your children or seeing them go hungry. For wealthier, often foreign, others, wildlife is sacrosanct and a measure of civilization, and they believe its continued survival warrants any amount of suffering.
Poaching and trophy hunting are both highly sensitive issues, viz the recent demise of Cecil the Lion. Cecil's death has raised millions in a few weeks for the preservation of lions. On a dusty road, a young lad fills in potholes hoping to earn a few cents from passing motorists. His mouth and nose are being eaten away by leprosy, he will never gain Cecil's viral fund-raising potential; he doesn't have the same appeal. Where do our priorities lie?
Indeed. Yet as the plot thickens, we learn that the poaching is directly linked to the Chinese market for Rhino horn and elephant tusk. Surely this is indefensible?
The commercial poaching of tusks and horn is certainly indefensible. Guilt lies firmly with the end users and their ridiculous beliefs in the medicinal properties of exotic bone and hair. This is the 21st century, no one grown up and sane believes in the tooth fairy.
Rhinos are already probably doomed, their survival rests on test tube reproduction and breeding in foreign locations. Elephants still have a fair chance if managed well and protected from mass poisonings and dire droughts.
From muti murder to poaching, Sibanda has certainly faced challenges. In general terms, how would you describe this genre of the African mystery, the post-colonial crime novel, which capitalizes on humour?
"Crime in post-independence, self-governing, rural Africa" is long-winded. I've been trying to think of a clever epithet that isn't dated or pejorative and it's tricky. "Murder most African." "Safari Sleuth." The crimes are unique, and as one critic pointed out, not the sort of crimes faced by Inspector Morse!
Indeed! Zimbabwean village life is rather different than that of the fictional county of Midsomer. How do your international readers respond to your particular African charm?
My international readers seem to love it. All the wildlife anecdotes woven through with clues and adventure is what they comment on, that, and the characters of course! I'm not sure if they expect the safari element, but they do enjoy it.
When can we expect the new Sibanda novel?
I am currently working on the third in the Series, SIBANDA AND THE BLACK SPARROWHAWK. Sibanda is on the trail of a serial killer with Ncube and Miss Daisy by his side. It's a tough case with multiple bodies and plenty of wildlife encounters.

The Corporation of the City of Kenora has received an application to purchase a portion of City of Kenora owned property located abutting Pine Portage Road. The property includes lots and blocks as well as a portion of an unopened lane described on Plan M63. Refer to the sketch below for an illustration. Notice provided in accordance with Policy PP-4-1.
The purpose of this notice is to notify the public of the by-law that will be under consideration to declare lands available for disposal. The By-law will be placed on the Council Agenda for consideration on October 31st, 2018.
The subject lands are approximately 0.8 ha and will be surveyed to create a legal description. The lands are vacant and would be developed in accordance with the provisions of the Zoning By-law, and accessed from Pine Portage Road.
The City of Kenora is pleased to advise the new Seventh Avenue South Bridge is now complete. The crossing and neighbouring streets will be open on Friday, October 5 by 5 p.m. to all vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
The City extends thanks to the public, the residents in the immediate work area, and boaters on Laurensons Creek for their cooperation and patience during this significant infrastructure project. This project was funded by the Government of Ontario – Build on the North program.
Through its Community Homelessness Prevention Initiative, the Kenora District Services Board (KDSB) is extending existing financial support agreements with the Kenora Fellowship Centre to continue meeting the need of providing meals to homeless and vulnerable people in Kenora.
In June of 2018, the KDSB and the Kenora Fellowship Centre entered into a service agreement that supported the Fellowship Centre in the temporary increase of resources to expand its current meal programming. This increase was needed to offset the gap in meal service provisions due to the Agape Table ending its programming in May as renovations were underway at Knox United Church, allowing for a permanent 24/7 Emergency Shelter.
"We are thankful to KDSB for the opportunity to continue our services to those facing homelessness and poverty in this time of transition. It greatly reduces the patron's uncertainty in regards to meal provisions and having a place of safety," says Yvonne BearBull, Executive Director of the Kenora Fellowship Centre. The Fellowship Centre will maintain its expanded meal programming until January 31, 2019, or until renovations are completed for the permanent 24/7 Emergency Shelter, which includes meal programming. Meal programming at the Fellowship Centre is as follows: Lunch services are offered six days a week, Monday – Saturday; breakfast services are offered seven days a week and; dinner services are offered weekly on Thursday.


Would the Dodger divorce trial be complete without an appearance from Vladimir Shpunt?
Dexter O'Connell sure didn't think so. On the fifth day of trial, O'Connell, 19, came to court wearing a Dodger jersey with "Vladimir" written across the front. On the back, he had written "SHPUNT IS MY HOMEBOY."
Shpunt, of course, was the psychic who the Dodgers paid to send telepathic messages to the team from his home in Boston. How could you have a circus without him?
O'Connell, who is from Venice, said he has been following the trial intently. He's a sophomore at the University of Chicago and a lifelong Dodger fan, who seems annoyed that Dodger players were subjected to Shpunt's healing powers.
"If we could have gotten Jayson Werth some Western medical treatment, we wouldn't need Manny," O'Connell said.
Shpunt is no longer on the Dodger payroll, so if he's sending any energy vibrations now, it's on a strictly pro bono basis.
In any case, it seems Frank McCourt doesn't need Shpunt to send him signals anymore. He has his lead counsel, Steve Susman, for that.
Frank was on the stand for the fourth day today, taking questions again from David Boies. One of Frank's arguments is that the version of Exhibit A of his marital agreement that gives Jamie co-ownership of the team is an obvious mistake because it's inconsistent with the body of the agreement.
But when Boies asked him on the stand if he believed it was inconsistent, he said no. Susman had a minor fit, and Frank quickly asked if he could change his answer.
Boies has been ignoring Susman's signals to Frank for the past several days, but in this case he decided to call him on it.
Boies: What happened at the counsel table that caused you to decide to try to go back and change your answer?
McCourt: I have no idea what you're talking about.
Susman got away with it, but the guy in the Shpunt jersey wasn't so lucky.
Judge Scott Gordon caught him talking to a friend in the back row of the courtroom, and had the friend tossed out. Looks like he needs to work on his telepathy skills.
Nervous? Frank McCourt Blinks 75 Times/Min.


thank you Jim :-) I try to make the best of it. Carpe Diem!
YaP = Yet another Peter.. actually derived from Yacc = Yet another Compiler Compiler - which is a tool for programmers which is around almost as long as i do programming (i know.. its an insider joke nobody really gets... and i didnt even know "to yap" actually IS a verb when i came up with that screen name).
esta bien. i can wait a little longer (just being back from a little vaccation to the canarian islands, which is part of spain anyway ). No worries :-). Did i tell you that i think it is really mean to end a "book" with a cliffhanger !?? It is !!
He's Old Enough to Be My Dad... But He Isn't.
I think the older you are (especially the younger partner in a relationship), the less age difference is an issue. 20 years make more of a difference for a 20 yo and a 40 yo than for a 30yo and a 50yo.. and even less for a 40yo and a 60yo. But i think too that a big age difference doesn't make it easier to build a stable relationship.
a fender jazz bass - or a sqiure by fender ? Nice !
No problem. You're a good guy.

So its now like 10:30pm on monday night and im just laying in bed writing this post, since sunday Ive had the photos lined up that I wanted to post today but Im not sure on the words that should of with them.
Tonight Ive been out for some drinks with some friends, I should really say it was a company I do a bit of work for lates christmas party but I suppose their more just freinds, who sometimes give me money to pay my bills and stuff. but anyway it was nice to see each and every single one of them and it was annoying that I couldnt stay later but I need to get a decent nights sleep for an early start tomorrow, so im sorry I didnt see the night out till the end.
Anyway back to the photos, the other day while walking around hyde park I cam across this guy who was making some massive bubbles with some weird looking device and washing up liquid, and well because of my rekindled love for the 50mm 1.8f lens it was only right I put that focal length tot he test and see if I could capture a reflection within a bubble and to be honest I kind of think I managed todo that and one of the photos Im really happy with, I also wasn't sure with what todo with the colours, you all know I love black and white photography and would love to only ever take black and white photos but I thought this time I would mix things up a bit and chuck some bright colours in there just to see what you think. Thats the whole reason this blog is here in the first place, to see what i like and what I don't like. and you've kind of got to thank the city of London for being full of creative people who just think on a different scale!
Ill let you guys do the judging, do you prefer my black and white portrait shots or these kind of crazy colour shots (its ok to say both by the way).

Beware when comparing TV amplifier specifications between manufacturers. Here at Kitz Tech we try to give accurate specifications. When we specify our TV amplifier noise figures, we give the value that is highest across the entire band. So you can count on it being that good or better. (lower is better) Some major manufacturers list noise figures on their websites as the lowest value across the band hiding the higher value on other pages that are hard to find. This can be very deceiving as the noise figure can be many times higher on another part of the band.

BOYS 4X1OOM RELAY AND OFEK SHINE AT ALL-STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS
MIAA All-State Championships
Jerry Gravel Track - Westfield, MA
WESTFIELD, MA - Saturday afternoon The Minutemen traveled out to the campus of Westfield State University for the All-State Championships. The team championships were both successfully defended by the 2018 Champions. On the girls side the ladies from Wellesley scored 38 points just edging out Natick (35 points) en route to reclaiming their title. The boys from Lowell scored 50 points to to pace the field; Acton-Boxborough and Newton North were tied for second with 38 points. For The Minutemen, the girls scored six points finishing tied for 47th. While the boys tied for 49th with five points.
On the boys side, the 4x100m Relay team of sophomore Alex Murphy, junior Salvador Jaramillo, as well as seniors Alex Hiser and Kazu Uda-Thach came into the meet seeded 13th with a season best time of 43.73 seconds. Running from the unseeded section the boys ran a tremendous race with crisp hand-offs and won their heat, improving their season best to 43.09. Then the waiting game started as the seeded heat crossed the line right around The Minutemen's time. When the times came across the scoreboard Lexington's boys had placed fifth and by finishing in the top six they punched their ticket to the New England Championships.
After her third place finish last week at the Division 1 Championships, junior Danna Ofek came to Westfield seeded ninth in a talented 2 Mile field. Going into the final lap three runners had broken away from Ofek's pack and would finish on the podium. However, with the final three spots at New Englands still up for grabs the LHS standout was in a fight to finish in the top six. Coming around the final turn and down the final homestretch Ofek was boxed in and was darting back and forth to find room to break away from the pack. With less than 50m to go she found an opening, charged for the line, and grabbed the sixth and final spot by just over half a second. Despite very warm and humid temperatures that hampered many runners in the field, Ofek's final time of 11:11.79 was just a few seconds off her personal best.
Other Highlights for The Minutemen
Junior Andrew McGovern placed 8th in the 400m Intermediate Hurdles in a time of 56.25; he was also 15th in 1:58.85 in the 800m.

Uda-Thach was 14th in the 200m Dash, running 22.57 seconds.
Aylin Bruce (62.3), Sunny Tang (64.2), Pauline Steines (62.3), and Lily Sheth (59.9) combined to run a season best in the girls 4x400m Relay; they finished 18th overall.

We've been thirsting for an exceptional magical girl series with a combination of fantasy, heart and action. And in the midst of 2020's chaotic year, ASSAULT LILY BOUQUET came out of the unknown to bless us with SHAFT magic. Did Assault Lily Bouquet save 2020 anime from its hits and misses?
Directed by Shôji Saeki and Hajime Otan, the world of Assault Lily Bouquet is set in the near future where humanity is in constant danger from mysterious creatures called the 'Huge'. In the war against the Huge, only teenage girls known as 'Lilies' can defeat such monstrosity with the assistance of weaponries called 'CHARMs'. In order to be fully trained Lilies, they must attend the prestigious Yuigaoka Academy, and this is exactly what Riri Hitotsuyanagi has done after she got rescued by Yuigaoka Academy's sophomore, Yuyu.
Featuring a pink-haired, goody two-shoes protagonist in conjunction with the dark-haired, cold-hearted deuteragonist, Assault Lily Bouquet is essentially a stale, duplicate series of Madoka Magica. From the moment the story kicked off, it immediately introduced a bunch of unique female characters to the audience. From eccentric nerds to overly-crazy seniors, we couldn't wait to learn more about their sisterhood and embark on this adventure with Riri, Yuyu, and the girls.
Hoping to surpass its predecessors including Madoka Magica and My-Hime, Assault Lily Bouquet initially presented itself as a serious contender for the magical girl genre. However, the anime ended up disappointing us with its poorly structured storytelling and rushed world-building concept. For a series that is apparently focussed on Riri's adventure of becoming a Lily, we don't see much action and learning happening at the Academy. And despite seeing a battle with the Huge every now and then, there is no tension or grit in the actual fights; let alone danger that happens beyond the school.
For us, Yuyu's backstory was our personal motivation to watch the anime, and the story sure likes to tease and build hype towards the revelation of Yuyu's dark past. However, the hype literally stomps on our parade in a matter of several episodes when Riri *magically* melts Yuyu's heart.
As if unsure of their direction, the writers tried too hard to please viewers with interesting content. This blinding vision is undeniable when the writers throw spontaneous fillers and comedic relief to drive the story forward. For instance, Yuyu finding the perfect birthday present for Riri? The girls trying to find Riri's hairpin out in the sea?
This is definitely not what we wanted or expected. Although such arcs may be befitting of the high school-esque setting, it is disheartening to see the story switching gears from so-called life-threatening fights to cheesy shoujo-ai fillers. Every time we think the story was going to turn a corner, it chooses to disappoint us instead with its short-lived character development and storytelling arcs.
Where was the direction of this anime? What was its purpose? Where is the promising action and drama?
Despite our harsh criticisms, there are some likeable aspects of Assault Lily Bouquet. The opening and ending theme songs are solid; character designs are above average; and the rare animation are always something to look forward to… but at the end of the day, Assault Lily Bouquet is very underwhelming.
Perhaps we have high expectations, especially when we already have magical girl favourites such as Card Captor Sakura, My-Hime and Madoka Magica. As a viewer, we want heart; real emotions; character development; action; boss-lady attitudes; and pumping adrenalin that makes a magical series … a 'magical girl' series.
Overall: ASSAULT LILY BOUQUET isn't amazing but it is also not terrible at all. We may have spent most of our time critiquing the confusing direction of the story but we were still keen to watch from the beginning to the end.
For a studio who has a strong reputation for its stylistic art direction and animated sequences, SHAFT could have done better than this. Assault Lily Bouquet had so much potential as a series — we're not so sure if we would watch it again if it gets a reboot of some kind.

Q: "Connected" UDP sockets, communication in both directions? How do I achieve 2 way communication on a connected UDP sockets ?
I can send message from client to server, but can not get a message from server. Here is my code. I think that problem must be in the server side, but I don't know how to solve that problem. I have intentionally removed error checking just to post on SO & keep my post short. I am not receiving any errors on any side.
I can get this program running with not connected UDP sockets, but can't with connected socket.
Server.c
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <errno.h>

int main()
{
  int sockfd;
  struct sockaddr_in me;
  char buffer[1024];

  sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);

  memset(&me, '\0', sizeof(me));
  me.sin_family = AF_INET;
  me.sin_port = htons(8080);
  me.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");

  bind(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&me, sizeof(me));

  recv(sockfd, buffer, 1024, 0);
  printf("[+]Data Received: %s\n", buffer);

  strcpy(buffer, "Hello Client\n");
  send(sockfd, buffer, 1024, 0);
  printf("[+]Data Send: %s\n", buffer);

  return 0;
}

Client.c
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <errno.h>

int main()
{
  int sockfd;
  struct sockaddr_in other;
  char buffer[1024];

  sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);

  memset(&other, '\0', sizeof(other));
  other.sin_family = AF_INET;
  other.sin_port = htons(8080);
  other.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");

  connect(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&other, sizeof(other));

  strcpy(buffer, "Hello Server\n");
  send(sockfd, buffer, 1024, 0);
  printf("[+]Data Send: %s\n", buffer);

  recv(sockfd, buffer, 1024, 0);
  printf("[+]Data Received: %s\n", buffer);

  return 0;
}

Output of Server
[+]Data Received: Hello Server
[+]Data Send: Hello Client

Output of Client
[+]Data Send: Hello Server
// Here it does not receive the message sent by server.

A: On linux, straceing the executable, the server send does say this:
sendto(3, "Hello Client\n\0\0\0\310$\220\4J\177\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"...,
       1024, 0, NULL, 0) = -1 EDESTADDRREQ (Destination address required)

i.e. the server socket indeed does not know the address it needs to send to. Any UDP socket must make the other end of the socket known by either connecting, or providing the destination socket address in sendto.
connect on an UDP socket means just  setting a default address for send.

To connect the socket on the "server" side, with an unknown party you should use recvfrom to find out the socket address of the sending party - then you can connect using this address or continue using sendto. With sendto the same socket can communicate with many different parties concurrently.

The TCP server/client sockets are a different case, because listen/accept on the server side returns a new connected socket that is distinct from the original server socket.
