CYBELE RECORDS 3SACD KiG007 [3 discs: 183:04]
Cybele Records' Artists in Conversation series brings us names both well-known and relatively obscure, and I for one had never heard of the Chilean-born Juan Allende-Blin before being sent this unusual recording. Allende-Blin's first studies were with his uncle, Pedro Humberto Allende. Subsequent studies include time at the University of Santiago, and further with Olivier Messiaen at Darmstädt. After some years as professor of musical analysis at the University of Santiago he moved to Germany in 1957 where he has been based ever since. I've had this set lying around for several months, not being sure what to make of it after dipping in from time to time. This music, however, is not for 'dipping in'. You have to give it it's time to evolve and take hold, but once you're engaged there much to discover.
Fragment nach Hölderlin for soprano, trumpet and euphonium takes its text and turns it into often entirely abstract sounds, using whistling, phonemes and single words to give the singer a part equal to the other musicians. The instrumentation seems odd but works surprisingly effectively. Each instrument is at times taken to extremes in terms of its range, but with multiphonic sounds and the upper harmonics of low pedal tones there is a rare richness to the sound that is both engaging and strangely mystical, especially with the slow pace, long notes and moments of silence that carry us through.
Distances for flute, harp, vibraphone and percussion takes us firmly back into mid-20th century avant-garde, with atonal serialism guiding the tones and melodic shapes, and quality and contrast of sound at least as important to the musical narrative as any other element. The composer's associations for this work include dance, compositional techniques used by Messiaen, and innovations discussed with choreographer and dancer Kurt Jooss, "… a kind of poetics that – as with Paul Klee – blurs the boundaries between representation and abstraction." There is certainly a poetic quality to the resonance and shape of this piece, with the mellifluous glow of the vibraphone and harp underpinning and tending to neutralise the occasional violence of the other percussion, and the flute moving amongst them like a human character, at times lost in strange atmospheres, and always a soft voice of reason that rises to every challenge.
Quartett for flute, clarinet, trombone and piano is Allende-Blin's response to today's noisy commercialism, the music "a simple invitation to perceive distinctive sounds which, like people, present with individual characteristics." Slow in its forward progression, using silence and the development of timbres such as multiphonic chords from the wind instruments, this is a sound-world not without drama and a sense of threat. "Perhaps it is a fragile building that one should enter attentively and with curiosity, but also with caution."
L'émigrant – Cantata after a poem by Jules Supervielle is scored for soprano, flute, clarinet, trombone, cello and piano. The poem, printed in its original French and translated into German and English in the booklet for this release, is both enigmatic and clear in its message: enigmatic in the layers of possible interpretation that can be placed on it, but also clear in its mood and emotional direction. Allende-Blin's brief note for the piece declares that "the soprano line determines the character of the entire music. Just as the text reveals itself open to multiple associations, so its surrounding sound-world aspires to a state that is multi-layered and simultaneously frail." This is more an emotional space than a work with a clear narrative curve, but its profound and slow-moving progress changes in colour in response to the text, adding weight to single words as well as lines from which the instruments take their cues.
The often glacial progress and extremes of exploration in terms of timbre in Juan Allende-Blin's musical style will not be to everyone's taste, but he has carved out a deeply personal and distinctive niche in an atonal idiom that is hard to craft these days without falling into some kind of caricature. As ever with these releases, the interview is a fascinating collection of insights and anecdotes into the composer's work, as well as providing a unique way of finding out about his personality and character. With everything being in German this may have limited value to many, but as far as I know Cybele is the only label consistently creating and releasing this kind of material, and plaudits are therefore always in order. The set is rounded off with a reading in Matthias Geuting's pleasantly rounded voice, of a text On the Unsayable in the Music of Juan Allende-Blin by Allende-Blin's late friend and partner, the organist and composer Gerd Zacher.

The BL is used for clamping steel directly together without the need for a location plate. Typical applications would be clamping two steel sections of the same width running parallel or for clamping down pressure vessel lids. It can also be used with clips and brackets underneath the nut and washer side for connecting conduit or even pipe work. The clamp is tested for tensile and lateral loads, please see data sheet below. The BL part is specifically designed to grip the head of a bolt or nut which means the clamp can always be connected by using a single wrench. The central bolt can be replaced with other threaded items such as threaded rod, eyebolts or J-bolts to provide a suspension element.
What are the most common applications for the BL Clamp?
Answer: The BL Clamp is used for securing two steel sections of the same width together without a location plate, it is used for securing temporary props and can be used for hanging building services from.
Is the BL available with and without the bolt?
Answer: Yes. The BL Clamp can be purchased as an assembled item including a setscrew, nut and washer or with the two clamping elements separately. The assembly will be used for clamping steel directly together or with a bracket under the nut and the two piece option would generally be used with threaded bar to achieve a drop support for pipework or other building services.
What is the Clamping range of the BL?
Answer: The BL design allows it to clamp down to almost any thickness of steel and a maximum given as D in the technical table.
Is the BL tested for backwards pull off?
Answer: Yes. The BL Clamp is tested for backwards pull off loads as it is sometimes used with brackets that connect to supports that would apply this type of loading. It is also tested for tensile at the centre of the bolt/threaded bar and at the nose to simulate it clamping at two sides of a connection.

The news is quite real. Only it is not about the US President's office, but the TV show "The New Celebrity Apprentice".
"The Celebrity Apprentice" is basically a reality game show, hosted by last year by none other than… Donald Trump. The show invited current and former celebrities from various fields (sports, music, TV, radio, etc.), engaged in a competition to win money that will go to a charity organization chosen by the winner.
"The Apprentice" is an entertainment show where business skills are evaluated two for groups ("corporations") of contestants, with one competitor eliminated ( "fired") with each episode. Each "corporation" can sell products, raise money for charity, and run advertising campaigns. The winner is determined by the host of the show.
The show was relaunched this year, on January 2, under a new name, "The New Celebrity Apprentice". The advisors of the show are Warren Buffett, Tyra Banks, Steve Ballmer, Jessica Alba, Patrick M. Knapp Schwarzenegger, Leeza Gibbons, Rocco DiSpirito, Tracey Edmonds, Bob Harper, iJustine, and Gemma Godfrey. In the new vision of the show, adapted to the new host Arnold Schwarzenegger, there are not going to say to the the eliminated contestants "You're fired!" but "You're terminated!".


Steps to Take If Your Furnace Stops Working « ACE Air Conditioning & Heating Service, Inc.
There are are some steps you can take if your furnace stops working in your home but for the most part, it's important to leave things to the professionals for the sake of safety.
Make sure your thermostat is set to "Heat": Sounds simple, but it's a step that many people overlook. This simple switch can fix your problem.
Clear filter: Make sure your filter is clear and air is blowing through. A clogged filter will limit airflow.
Inspect your electrical panel and/or circuit breakers: Check your electrical panel to see if a circuit tripped – sometimes it could be as simple as that.
Furnace installation: If you need to replace your furnace, use our expertise to determine the right type and size for your home or commercial space.
Reduce drafts in the area around your furnace: A blown out pilot light from drafting air from doors or windows may cause your furnace to shut off. Ignition control or pilot light problems should be left to professionals. Unless you received training to repair furnaces, let the professionals with ACE handle problems related to mechanical wear and tear. Otherwise, you may void the warranty on the appliance or accidentally cause a larger problem.
Maintenance is extremely important in keeping your heating system working – make sure you contact ACE for a regular maintenance schedule to keep your system optimized.

Q: Visualforce remote objects I was reading through this documentation.
http://docs.releasenotes.salesforce.com/en-us/spring14/release-notes/rn_vf_remote_objects.htm
As per the doc:

Visualforce Remote Objects are proxy objects that allow basic DML
  operations on sObjects directly from JavaScript

Does this mean that any org that do not have API/ Apex class access (like professional org:I  assume all orgs have VF page access but restricted with APEX/ API access) can start using VF page/ with Visualforce remote objects for doing DML operations ?

Notice something very unusual about this page—there is no controller
  or controller extension. All of the data access is handled by the
  Remote Objects components.
Like JavaScript remoting, Remote Objects calls don't count towards API
  request limits.

Looking more, this feature seems awesome that you use JS with VF and start CRUDing Sobjects
http://www.oyecode.com/2014/02/how-to-use-salesforce-remote-objects-in.html

Some cool features this offers over JavaScript remoting are :

*

*Freedom from controllers

*No Test classes

*Easy code management

*Not counted against API call

please clarify

A: The Apex Developer's Guide has a section Best Practices for Using Remote Objects that  is very well written and, generally, addresses what Remote Objects are good for and what they aren't.  Here is the first sentence on the page:

Visualforce Remote Objects is an effective tool for quickly adding simple data operations to Visualforce pages.

The page then goes on to cover limitations with transaction boundaries (e.g., inserting an Order and Order Products in one transaction isn't possible), addresses issues on business logic placement, handling complexity, and gives alternatives to Remote Objects.
The short answer is simple CRUD based functionality is where Remote Objects work best.  For example, an app that lets you edit Contact information, or an app that displays a List of some Object, etc., are good. A complex financial system, probably not a good fit.
Know that there are documented limitations.  It is still in developer preview so is subject to change without backward compatibility and it is also documented as not yet feature complete.
Can it be used in PE?
I didn't see it documented anywhere that they can't be used in a PE org.  I just signed up for a Professional Edition Pre-release on the pre-release sign up page and was able to use Remote Objects without issue.

With trigger thumb, patients present with a painful thumb that sticks or catches, often audibly, upon flexion or extension. Or, the patient's thumb may be stuck or locked in the flexed position. Trigger thumb is thus named because once the thumb unlocks (often by passive manipulation), it snaps back much like discharging a trigger on a gun.


Genome-wide association study of posttraumatic stress disorder in a cohort of Iraq-Afghanistan era veterans.
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder that can develop after experiencing traumatic events. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) design was used to identify genetic risk factors for PTSD within a multi-racial sample primarily composed of U.S. veterans.Participants were recruited at multiple medical centers, and structured interviews were used to establish diagnoses. Genotypes were generated using three Illumina platforms and imputed with global reference data to create a common set of SNPs. SNPs that increased risk for PTSD were identified with logistic regression, while controlling for gender, trauma severity, and population substructure. Analyses were run separately in non-Hispanic black (NHB; n = 949) and non-Hispanic white (NHW; n = 759) participants. Meta-analysis was used to combine results from the two subsets.SNPs within several interesting candidate genes were nominally significant. Within the NHB subset, the most significant genes were UNC13C and DSCAM. Within the NHW subset, the most significant genes were TBC1D2, SDC2 and PCDH7. In addition, PRKG1 and DDX60L were identified through meta-analysis. The top genes for the three analyses have been previously implicated in neurologic processes consistent with a role in PTSD. Pathway analysis of the top genes identified alternative splicing as the top GO term in all three analyses (FDR q < 3.5 × 10(-5)).No individual SNPs met genome-wide significance in the analyses.This multi-racial PTSD GWAS identified biologically plausible candidate genes and suggests that post-transcriptional regulation may be important to the pathology of PTSD; however, replication of these findings is needed.

Q: Updating a column from another's repeatable values I have the following table
Invoice
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ InvoiceId + InvoiceDate +
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+   int     +     int     +
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ InvoiceLineId +  InvoiceId + InvoiceDate +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+    int        +    int     +    int      +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I recently added the last (InvoiceDate) column to the table and I would like to update it's values with the corresponding values from the Invoice table. For every InvoiceId that matches in both tables, the InvoiceDate should be added to InvoiceLine.
If more input is needed don't hesitate to ask.

A: maybe something like this?
    update detail
    set invoicedate = summary.invoicedate
    from invoiceline detail
         inner join invoice summary
             on summary.invoiceid = detail.invoiceid

A: Update InvoiceLine
Set InvoiceDate = Invoice.InvoiceDate
From Invoice inner join InvoiceLine on Invoice.InvoiceId = InvoiceLine.InvoiceId


Prevention, Conditions and Environment Working Act (LOPCYMAT 2005), establishes the duty of employers to take steps to ensure workers health conditions, health, safety and welfare at work on the terms provided in the Act.
In regard to the rules relating to the duties of the employee, article 54 of the LOPCYMAT features they do not relieve the employer's duty of care and safety, which is logical, since the employer must comply with its duties regardless of whether the employee meets or does not correspond with that. This does not preclude the breach of any of these duties exclude the criminal liability of the employer has not acted negligently or willfully or for death or injury caused by the worker that breach the worker.
To assert criminal liability must be determined if the employer established a legally significant danger to the legally protected or whether it acted within the permissible risk, which corresponds to the principles of responsibility for the fact and exclusive liability for intentional conduct or culpable described in the Act, clearly recognized in several standards.
Thus, with respect to the rates provided in Article 131, whether that "very serious or serious violation of legal regulations on safety" by the employer, may not be considered criminal conduct of the same is not true.
There may be the case that the breach of duties by the employee may have caused the accident, such as the duty described in Article 54.1 which requires the employee to perform the duties arising out of their employment contract subject to the rules safety and health at work is not only to protect their own health and safety but also with respect to other workers and to safeguard the facilities where they work.
So even if the employer has worked in the field of risk tolerated and has complied with the duty of care and whether the worker is not subject to health and safety standards that have been duly informed, which determines a accident, the only criminally responsible for that act will be the worker.
With respect to the criminality liability of owners, partners, shareholders and generally the leaders of enterprises, legal persons, Article 129 of LOPCYMAT define that regardless of the sanctions which may be imposed legal persons in accordance with the provisions of the preceding articles, those engaged as representatives of the employer or the employer, in case of fault, may be charged criminally under the provisions of this Act.

The Science Whizz Competition is staged annually by the NIHERST/NGC National Science Centre with the aim of encouraging the public, and students in particular, to become more interested in science. The competition also seeks to develop skills in comprehension, presentation and showmanship.
The early format of the competition invited contestants in two age groups (12-16 and 17 years and over) to make a 7-10 minute presentation to demonstrate a scientific or mathematical principle in a fun and exciting way. Contestants were judged on originality, scientific/mathematical content, presentation (explanations and demonstrations), rapport with audience, and showmanship.
Over the 10 years of its staging, contestants have tackled a host of concepts. They include the square of numbers, magnetism, Newton's Laws of Motion, the functions of the various parts of the brain, surface tension, the necessary ingredients for fire, the melting point of ice, aquaculture, and emulsions. Some contestants have taken their performances to the wider national audience in the spin-off "Sci-Whizz" television series produced by NIHERST's Science Communication Unit from 2004 to 2007.
The Science Whizz Competition has attracted 919 entrants from 1998 to 2007. The number of participants has increased steadily and now exceeds 100. Many contestants have been bitten by the science drama bug and re-enter the competition annually. Some also take part in other national competitions, making their mark as winners in the Prime Minister's Awards for Innovation and Invention Competition administered by NIHERST and the National Mathematics Olympiad, among other competitions.
The National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago has been the competition's sponsor since its inception, which is testimony to its value in promoting youth development and science popularization. The company funds the promotion of the competition and its much sought-after cash prizes, which have increased to over $25,000.
NIHERST and NGC wish to congratulate all the students who participated in the 2012 Science Whizz Competition, especially those students who made it all the way through to the final round.

At the end of a long "weekend" of rigorously indulging oneself in the viewing of art at both the Armory Show 2003, on Piers 88 and 90, and -Scope New York, at the Dylan Hotel, one was able to enjoy a respite at two particular events.
The first was a video monitor screening of the 1970 silent, color, Super 8 film, "Joseph Beuys In Scotland," by Rory McEwen, at the McAllister Institute, on Sunday, March 9th. The second was "Miele," a solo exhibition of color photographs and a concurrent video projection screening of a black-and-white film by Sara Rossi at the Italian Academy At Columbia University, on Monday, March 10th. The contemplative nature of the works presented at each of these events made it possible for one to decelerate and to experience the presence of extraordinary phenomena taking place at exceptional moments.
The occasion at the McAllister Institute marked only the third time that "Joseph Beuys In Scotland" has ever been screened. As Adam McEwen, the grown son of Rory McEwen, the late Scottish artist known primarily for his watercolor-on-vellum paintings of botanical subjects, stood off to the side and intermittently narrated the film to a small group of British, German, and American artists, filmmakers, writers, curators, and art dealers, one was drawn into this compelling journey of Joseph Beuys, being transported in a white Mercedes Benz in the summer rain and on the roads running through small, traditional Scottish towns and thehighways cutting through the verdant Scottish landscape. Beuys' gray felt hat was distinctly visible through his car's rear-view window from the perspective of the filmmaker, who was shooting through the windshield of a moving car from a distance of about five car-lengths back.
The occasional view of Beuys' young children reminded one that this was, indeed, a summer excursion. On enchanted journeys and under cloudy Scottish skies, even this is possible.
At a sudden moment in the film, Beuys, in his white fisherman's vest, emerged from his car and directly made his way through the pasture, investigating its features and, then, revealing in his open hand a roughly textured blob of gelatin. Cutting at its surface with a great a sense of purpose, he grasped the gelatinous mass; it resembled a large heart, virtually pulsating and alive in his hand, extended out amidst the green Scottish landscape. A still life of a smear of white lard on a flat gray stone resting on the green grass appeared just as suddenly, and the film concluded. "Joseph Beuys In Action" is a work that makes it possible to experience modern-day alchemy.
"Miele" ("Honey"), by Sara Rossi, presented at the Italian Academy At Columbia University, was the second in an ongoing series of solo exhibitions of works by winners of the Premio New York, a residency grant awarded to two young Italian artists of distinction per semester. (The Premio New York's inaugural exhibition--of works by Chiara, the Rome-based photography and mixed media artist--took place in December. Marta Dell'Angelo, the Milan-based painter and video artist, and Matteo Basile, the Rome-based photography and video artist, are the current Premio New York artists-in-residence.)
"Miele" consists of 40 sensitively conceived and produced, small-scale color photographs that are exquisitely mounted on slender planes of aluminum. Each of Rossi's works honors the act of looking--observing places and objects that reside in the real world and inhabit the domains of the memory and the dream world. Rocky springtime landscapes in Tuscany; sequences of images of a silent film intertitle, a film still of Buster Keaton, and an eccentric object; a composition depicting a young lady in a patterned dress, lazily lying on the floor and framed by the long legs of a dog-in-motion under cloudy gray natural daylight are examples of the precious, little tableaux created by Rossi.
In the elegant and spacious, second-floor Teatro, "The Hour Glass" was on view. Framed by plush, velvet theater curtains, this 45-minute black-and-white motion picture shot in Super 8 depicts with great reverence for cinematic tradition an hourglass, as its sand is running down. Like the snow globe seen at the outset of Orson Welles' "Citizen Kane," Rossi's hourglass is a filmic icon. Appearing somewhat above the audience's eye-level and before a backdrop of stately, striped wallpaper and reflecting tall, Old World balcony windows, this beacon-like hourglass is portrayed in a grainy haze. It evokes the world of the silent film drama or, rather, the mid-20th Century works that pay tribute to it. Like the Francois Truffaut film, "Two English Girls," "The Hour Glass" leaves one longing for a time that precedes one's lifetime in a highly personal way. There is a graceful resonance between the graininess of the film and the grains of sand (or, rather, the idea of the falling grains of sand, as the details of this action is barely perceptible). Likewise, there exists a satisfying counterbalance to the visual spectacle of this film in its soundtrack, consisting of the rhythmic sounds of mechanical clock movements.
Indeed, one looks forward to New York's annual celebration of contemporary art on the Hudson River piers. Nevertheless, it remains a real pleasure to encounter oases that complement all of the excitement and the hustle and bustle.

Ken Pettit: 1940-2019
In Memoriam	By Lee Moldaver	| Thu Aug 20, 2020 | 10:00am
Super Tuesday in March 2020 was the first major county election Ken Pettit didn't observe, or manage, in 40 years. After serving as County Clerk Howard Menzel's senior deputy, Pettit succeeded Menzel, serving four terms running a "picnic basket" of duties, including chief election officer.
Service is something people always associated with Ken. He loved helping people and building community. Candidates all say they have some sort of platform they're running to implement. But when I asked Pettit why he was running for County Clerk, his regular smile momentarily vanished, he looked right at me, and he said, "I really want to make a difference for people." And he did, in so many ways.
There was County Executives Association Ken Pettit, regaling meetings with side-splitting jokes while nudging them toward more honest, open government. Department head Pettit, knowing every employee's name, always inquiring when a family member was ailing. Lions Club Ken, urging anyone he met to "stop by for a free eye screening." Santa Barbara Boys & Girls Club supporter Ken, telling every new-to-town family about all their great sports, recreation, and learning opportunities. Old Spanish Days centurion Ken, encouraging people to find a reason to "celebrate" local history and "find a reason to Fiesta."
Ken enjoyed being County Clerk-Recorder-Elections Officer. "When you help someone complete the forms for their wedding or business license, record the deed for their first home, that's something you never forget." Visitors for a romantic County Courthouse wedding would be surprised when the fellow guiding them through the paperwork emerged from behind the counter to witness their ceremony or notarize their new business form. Ken collected the photographs newlyweds sent him of their courthouse wedding — Ken standing to one side, as witness or guest.
Charles Dickens novels aren't taught enough in local schools anymore. Pettit had read several, and meeting local members of Dickens's extended family thrilled him. Yet it was hard for him to talk much about why David Copperfield, Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby, and Great Expectations meant so much to him.
They mattered because, like many plucky Dickens protagonists, Ken had grown up abandoned, born in Southern California but raised in an upstate New York orphanage. He knew kids whose undiagnosed eye problems held them back in school or undermined their health. He knew kids who only found acceptance in team sports, where family, income, race, and religion didn't matter. He knew kids who overcame their sense of not belonging in a party, festival, or hearty laugh at a shared joke. That's why the Lions Club vision programs, the Boys & Girls Club team and intramural sports, and the Old Spanish Days' open, accessible revels meant so much to him. It was why, of all the area's elected officials, the one who resonated most with Ken was crusty, outdoorsy Republican Dr. Dan Secord, who had also been raised as orphan and was "sometimes the only political person I could ask about something who really understood."
That was why this funny, laid-back guy could become as serious and focused as a lion if someone tried to mess with any citizen's right to vote, which was sacred to Ken, no matter where you lived, whether you owned or rented, whether you had a home at all.
Ken became famous when he let members of the South Coast's homeless population register, then vote, using "The Fig Tree" as their legal residence. Some scoffed, but to Ken, every citizen's right to exercise their franchise was paramount, no matter where they slept.
Ken became widely known after being grilled in Superior Court for two days about UCSB/Isla Vista student voting. Pettit explained why students could register to vote where they attended school, how their votes were accurately tabulated, and what efforts our Elections Office made to assure that any and all votes would be counted if possible. That was during legal challenges to a county election whose winning margin was fewer than 20 contested votes. "In a democracy, our system's essential right is for every eligible voter to have their chance to vote, and to have their vote counted," Pettit explained.
Big, burly, bearded baritone Ken Pettit, legendary fisherman, proud dad to his own family, battled the scale much of his life. The year Denver Airport installed "moving sidewalks," a voice called to me from the other side of a concourse; it was Ken.
"Goin', or comin' home?" he shouted.
"Going," I said.
"Okay, have a good trip," Ken replied.
As the sidewalk pushed us along, I realized the people in front of me were staring at Ken. "Isn't that Orson Welles?" one traveler asked the other.
"No, of course not. That's Raymond Burr."
When I got back home and told Ken what they'd said, he began to laugh so heartily his assistant came in to see what was happening.
Ken Pettit, raised without a conventional family, spent his whole life creating new ones with everything he did and helping make Santa Barbara a better place for everyone while he did it, one tall tale at a time. And as that Denver Airport encounter illustrates, he never took himself too seriously.
In the Founders' time, public service was seen as a public trust, extolled by Washington, Jefferson, and Franklin. Recently, however, some view people who devote their lives to public service with suspicion or animosity. Ken Pettit was the answer for such people.

The Cliff Richards performance copyright extension
The EU commission is proposing to extend copyright terms for performers of music, to match the existing terms for composers. The notion of retroactive extension is problematic (though not unprecedented), but there are some interesting aspects to the proposal:
For session musicians, the record companies will set up a fund reserving at least 20 percent of the income during the extended term to them. For featured artists, original advances may no longer be set off against royalties in the extended term, which means the artist would get all the royalties during the extended term.
The commissioner also intends to propose a "use it or lose it" provision. In the case where a record company is unwilling to re-release a performance during the extended term, the performer can move to another label.

Twitter Tutorial: Change Your Header Image and Promote Your Brand!
You don't have to fill the Twitter header-space with an image if you prefer to leave it blank - it will look black by default. However it's a good idea to use this valuable real estate especially as it's right behind your Twitter Avatar, Bio-lines and URLS and gets first view whenever someone clicks on your Profile.
For example, what kind of band are you? A country and western band? Folk band? etc. When you place an appropriate and relevant image eg. rock band in your Header Space, you immediately send out the correct impression of your band and get the kind of enquiries and leads that you are seeking that could lead to increased bookings eg. for a wedding, dance or social event, private function, etc. and increased sales.
You can make that vital first impression whenever someone lands on your account - make it impressive and congruent with your BRAND. Explicit statement? Or implicit message? Either or, or both! Here's your opportunity to get creative, promote your brand and get more Twitter followers with ONE (Header) space!
TIP: You can overlay text messages in your image (so you are getting more messages across), in addition to your text narrative and text links that are sitting on TOP of your header image (your Bio lines) - in effect you are graphically reinforcing your written message. If you wish to do this smarter then do it subtly because this approach often works better than a sledge-hammer approach!

Ferrari announces record results for first nine months of 2012
Maranello, 7th November 2012 – The Ferrari board of directors met today under the chairmanship of Luca di Montezemolo to examine the company's financial results for the first nine months of 2012.
As of September 30th, Ferrari has recorded unprecedented revenues of 1,764 million euro (+10 per cent) and numbers of cars delivered to the dealership network 5,267 (+6 per cent).
Trading profits increased by 9.6 per cent to 232.8 million euro, while net profits grew 7.6 per cent to 152.4 million.
The company's industrial net cash position reached almost 1 billion euro – an all-time record figure of 959 million euro – despite continuing commitment to maintaining an extremely high level of investment in product development. Ferrari also chalked up a net cash flow of 251 million euro in the first nine months of the year.
The product mix was excellent with 12-cylinder model sales up 22 per cent thanks to the success of the FF and the 8-cylinder models, particularly the Ferrari California 30 and the 458 Spider. The racing GT2 and GT3 versions of the 458 Italia took the titles in their respective categories last weekend in the GT Open Championship after having already won the FIA World Endurance Championship beating competition from the world's leading manufacturers.
The USA confirmed its position as Ferrari's largest market internationally with 26 per cent of total sales after delivery of 1,354 cars with a growth of 16 per cent.
The UK market saw record sales of 504 cars, a leap of 37 per cent, while Germany saw continued growth (+9 per cent) with 534 cars delivered, consolidating its position as the largest European market.
In the Far East, the positive trend in Greater China continued (+7 per cent) with 566 cars delivered, while Japan saw deliveries of 214 cars, an increase of 20 per cent. Results from the Middle East were in line with the excellent figures obtained in 2011, with 274 cars delivered.
Sales in Italy, as in the previous two quarters, were down with 238 cars delivered in the first nine months of 2012 (-49 per cent).
"These results confirm Ferrari's excellent performance in practically all of the 60 nations in which it is present despite the continuing economic climate. Once again the exception is Italy where we have witnessed a drop partly due to the economic crisis, but also to a hostile environment for luxury goods which have long been, and continue to be, an important resource for the country," said Luca di Montezemolo who then announced the addition of a new Ferrari board member: "I am delighted that Eddy Cue, one of the main driving forces behind Apple's range of revolutionary products, has now joined our board. His huge experience in the dynamic, innovative world of the Internet will be of great assistance to us."
Eddie Cue is Apple's Senior Vice President Internet Software and Services and oversees Apple's industry-leading content stores including the iTunes Store, the revolutionary App Store and the iBookstore, as well as Siri, Maps, iAd and Apple's innovative iCloud services. He is a 23-year Apple veteran and played a major role in creating the Apple online store in 1998, the iTunes Music Store in 2003 and the App Store in 2008. He earned a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Economics at Duke University.
"I am pleased and proud to become a member of the board. I have personally dreamed of owning a Ferrari since I was 8 years old and have been lucky to be an owner for the past 5 years. I continue to be awed by the world-class design and engineering that only Ferrari can do," said Eddie Cue, commenting on his nomination to the board.
Ferrari's Brand-related activities (licensing retail and e-commerce) continue to grow. Revenues from the online store are up 32 per cent while those generated by licenses were up 20 per cent, with Puma proving particularly robust. Ferrari also recently signed an agreement with Mondo TV for the production and distribution of The Drakers, an original animated series for young viewers that is inspired by the world of Ferrari.
Visits to Ferrari.com were also up by 20 per cent, while Facebook has almost 10 millions fans and views on the Ferrari YouTube channel have exceeded 20 million.

Heading into Season 8 of Game of Thrones, every fan has their favorite theories on what will happen, when, and to whom. Can Cersei take the Iron Throne? Will Arya finish off her kill list? Does Bran hold the key to ending The Long Night? The list goes on.
Of course, HBO is keeping a tight lid on the final secrets of Thrones' epic saga — and only time will tell which fan predictions, if any, are correct.


Refreshment comes to you from the smallest moments of Beauty. Do not be fooled by the circumstances of the human condition and start to believe in ugliness. Ugliness in thought and deed is ignorance and pain projected outward. Beauty is Love made manifest, and it is everywhere. Restore your soul by seeing the beauty in ordinary moments and ordinary people as they speak and act from Love. Work in the world, live in Heaven!


Sorry if this is a noob question, but I can't see files (boot.py, main.py) in pymakr. From the announcement it seems like it should: "It's a fully featured IDE that connects automatically to your Pycom devices via Telnet Server or serial port, runs your code on the fly, manages the internal file system,"
I upgraded my lopy's successfully using the stand-alone updater, I can connect to get a REPL prompt over wifi or USB/UART.
QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: D:"
If I use Filezilla I can see all the files in /flash, and I can download them. Boot.py just ahs the code to duplicate the REPL on the uart, as expected.
I am using Windows 10, 64 bit and pymakr 1.0.0.b5. I disabled all antivirus software just in case.
I guess I can download using filezilla, edit the files in notepad++ and upload them again using Filezilla. And I can watch what is going on using USB, using RealTerm or pymakr. But then I wonder what the use of pymakr is?
Thanks for the suggestions. The '2 way sync' is something we are discussing to implement. Upload of config or resource files is also not fully supported at the moment, so for now you'll need an FTP app to do this. I'll put this on our list to research. For all development of your python code, pymakr will do the trick.
I too expected to be able to access the file and folder structure of the Lo/WiPy using Pymaker, as I understood I would no longer need any other application to develop with Pycom products.
I would like to be able to retrieve files that have been created by a python script (Eg log files) running on a Pycom product and I would also like to be able upload resource or config files that are separate from a python project.
I have only uploaded once using Filezilla, and it worked okay for me.
@aureleq I too have had very little success with filezilla - a trick I did discover was to establish a connection and then put the file(s) I wish to transfer in the "Queued Window" of fiezilla and then click on the "process queue" in the transfer window. When nothing seems to happen, click on the icon that "disconnects from the currently active server" whereupon the files will transfer and the connection then dropped. I've only tried this with small files but it seems to work reliably.
I'm using Filezilla 3.22.1 under WIndows 7 (64 bit). When I was trying to upload new firmware into the flash/sys directory (before the stand-alone updaters were fixed) - I had to resort to using my Android phone and using FTP in an app called "ES File Explorer" - This worked better with large files but was still unreliable but better than filezilla using the same "passive" and single connection you mention.
Is there an alternative way while waiting for a fix? With FileZilla I can download files but upload always times out. Maybe I missed some config though I am in passive mode and 1 simultaneous connection only.
@w0run have you managed to make it work?
After the sync failure reported previously, I discovered that boot.py was empty (0 bytes). So REPL was not being duplicated on the uart. I restored it with Filezilla and all is well again. So the Pymakr sync function has some problems, at least in Windows 10.
I have tried this a couple of times now, with the same results.
At this point I had to power cycle the LoPy to get it to connect again.
Thanks, I will try the project approach and see.
A log has been written to "C:\Users\Gordon_pymakr\pymakr_error.log".
Actually I don't know whether it is clicking in the File-Browser or some other action.
Woould you like me to send the error log?
@LarryTru thanks for that suggestion, we'll take it it into consideration. For now, if your implementation requires you to write files to the flash and then download them, you'll have to manually retrieve them.
@Ralph If I understand correctly, the gist of what you are saying is that it is only able to synchronize in one direction; Pymakr to LoPy. Hopefully it will be bidirectional in the future, because this means that any files your code writes have to be manually retrieved via ftp.
If you manage to do that, the only thing left is configuring your device in the preferences and start using the synchronize and run buttons to put the code you write on the device.
The "pythonw" popup error is something we will look in to. It seems to be an issue only with the windows version. Are you still able to see the files on your filesystem in the FIle-browser tab after getting this error?

I finally broke down and created a new blog: Not Greater Falls. As the title implies, it will be for stuff that I want to post that ISN'T about our community. First up: a laddie pic of a speechwriter doing something that would get most politicos fired.
Good! I missed your rants, raves and whimsy from the old davidmsc blog.
But, wasn't your blog GreaterFalls.com/David, the blog that replaced davidmsc , your blog for writing about such things?
True, Walter — but I wanted sort of a "fresh start" to blogging, and wanted to use a service that is NOT affiliated with GreaterFalls.com. A little distance, so to speak.


FARMERS? LANDOWNERS? …CASH FOR CAMPING?
We are always looking for interesting camping locations to rent on private land in the South Lakes area.
Size – any size considered, does not need to be a large area, less than ¼ of an acre would be fine.
Does not need to be available all year – just whenever you specify.
Must be reasonably flat and well drained.
Must be secluded or remote – so that noise levels will not disturb any houses nearby.
Must have reasonable access – at least via a 4x4 vehicle.
Shelter from prevailing winds – preferable but not essential.
Scenic location, area of natural beauty – preferable but not essential.
Nothing! – (unless you want to get involved!) Just the use of your camping location(s) for short periods during the year.
Everything else! - We will be the first point of contact for any enquiries or problems – (No one will knock on your door asking for more toilet rolls!!). We will provide temporary campsite facilities – toilets, water, hot showers, waste disposal and any other camping equipment. Finally we will ensure that the location is cleared and left as we found it at the end of each stay.
If you are a landowner or farmer with a suitable camping location why not make the most of your 28 days "Permitted Development Rights" and find out more about making some extra - hassle free - money from your land … please get in touch.

AG: Clerks not ordered to issue licenses
By Oxford Eagle Contributors
Published 12:00 pm Monday, May 16, 2016
By Sid Salter
In my recent column on House Bill 1523 and the constitutional reality of legal same-sex marriage in Mississippi, I chose the wrong verb in describing Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood's official directives to the state's circuit clerks regarding the issuing of marriage licenses.
Here's what I wrote last week: "On the subject of same-sex marriage, the Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision in the 2015 landmark Obergefell v. Hodges case declared that same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry that is guaranteed by both the Due Process Clause and Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.
"That decision made same-sex marriage legal in Mississippi — or at least impeded Mississippi from violating the federal constitutional right to same-sex marriage by denying marriage licenses to same-sex couples. About a week later, Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood ordered circuit clerks in the state to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples."
Through his public information officer, Rachel Ring, Hood asked me to revisit the word "ordered" in that second paragraph: "While the attorney general did send clerks a letter to notify them of the Supreme Court decision, he did not issue an 'order' and has no authority to do so."
The point of Hood's complaint about that word is simple — it's the wrong word. Mississippi's attorney general indeed doesn't possess the legal authority to "order" the circuit clerks to issue marriage licenses.
After the U.S. Supreme Court decided the Obergefell case, Hood's office sent a notification to the state's circuit clerks that Hood later admitted in a second letter to the clerks "seems to have been misinterpreted as prohibiting circuit clerks from issuing marriage licenses to same sex couples. The statement was merely meant to explain that an order of the Fifth Circuit would be necessary to lift the stay."
Following a lengthy explanation of the impact of the U.S. Supreme Court case on the orders and procedural activities of the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and the U.S. Districts Courts in Mississippi, Alabama, Texas and Georgia related to that decision, Hood's second notification to the circuit clerk addressed the topic of how the clerks might choose to move forward:
"Nevertheless, regardless of the status of the case before the Fifth Circuit, Obergefell is the law of the land. If a clerk has issued or decides to issue a marriage license to a same-sex couple, there will be no adverse action taken by the attorney general against that circuit clerk on behalf of the state. In such cases, it might be wise to advise same-sex applicants that the validity of a marriage licenses issued prior to the stay being legally lifted might be contested in any potential divorce action or in future estate proceedings.
"On the other hand, a clerk who refuses to issue a marriage license to a same-sex couple could be sued by the denied couple and may face liability. Whatever course you decide to take, you should consult with the county board attorney about the issuance of licenses in light of the Supreme Court's opinion on Friday."
Ironically, Hood's now a defendant in one of two federal lawsuits filed against the state regarding HB1523. One lawsuit, filed by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), seeks to declare the bill unconstitutional.
A second federal lawsuit filed by the Campaign for Southern Equality, seeks to reopen its prior lawsuit that overturned Mississippi's same-sex marriage ban and focuses on the provision in HB1523 that allows those same Mississippi circuit clerks and deputy clerks to "recuse" themselves from issuing marriage licenses if doing so conflicts with their personal religious beliefs.
Perhaps more ironic now that he's been named as a defendant in one of those federal lawsuits is Hood's admonition after Gov. Phil Bryant signed HB1523 into law: "Any lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of HB1523 will have to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
We would caution government officials and others that HB1523 does not override federal law or constitutional rights. If a person or government official violates a federal statute or constitutional provision, House Bill 1523 will not protect that official from a federal lawsuit or from potential personal liability under federal law."

Any A special input source constant that is used when filtering input devices to match devices that provide any type of input source.
ClassButton The input source has buttons or keys. Examples: InputDevice.SourceKeyboard, InputDevice.SourceDpad. A KeyEvent should be interpreted as a button or key press. Use InputDevice.KeyCharacterMap to query the device's button and key mappings.
ClassJoystick The input source is a joystick. A MotionEvent should be interpreted as absolute joystick movements. Use InputDevice.GetMotionRange(Axis) to query the range of positions.
ClassMask A mask for input source classes. Each distinct input source constant has one or more input source class bits set to specify the desired interpretation for its input events.
ClassNone The input source has no class. It is up to the application to determine how to handle the device based on the device type.
ClassPointer The input source is a pointing device associated with a display. Examples: InputDevice.SourceTouchscreen, InputDevice.SourceMouse. A MotionEvent should be interpreted as absolute coordinates in display units according to the View hierarchy. Pointer down/up indicated when the finger touches the display or when the selection button is pressed/released. Use InputDevice.GetMotionRange(Axis) to query the range of the pointing device. Some devices permit touches outside the display area so the effective range may be somewhat smaller or larger than the actual display size.
ClassPosition The input source is an absolute positioning device not associated with a display (unlike InputDevice.SourceClassPointer). A MotionEvent should be interpreted as absolute coordinates in device-specific surface units. Use InputDevice.GetMotionRange(Axis) to query the range of positions.
ClassTrackball The input source is a trackball navigation device. Examples: InputDevice.SourceTrackball. A MotionEvent should be interpreted as relative movements in device-specific units used for navigation purposes. Pointer down/up indicates when the selection button is pressed/released. Use InputDevice.GetMotionRange(Axis) to query the range of motion.
Dpad The input source is a DPad.
Gamepad The input source is a game pad. (It may also be a InputDevice.SourceJoystick).
Joystick The input source is a joystick. (It may also be a InputDevice.SourceGamepad).
Keyboard The input source is a keyboard. This source indicates pretty much anything that has buttons. Use InputDevice.KeyboardType to determine whether the keyboard has alphabetic keys and can be used to enter text.
Mouse The input source is a mouse pointing device. This code is also used for other mouse-like pointing devices such as trackpads and trackpoints.
Note that this bit merely indicates that an input device is capable of obtaining input from a stylus. To determine whether a given touch event was produced by a stylus, examine the tool type returned by MotionEvent.GetToolType(Int32) for each individual pointer.
A single touch event may multiple pointers with different tool types, such as an event that has one pointer with tool type MotionEvent.ToolTypeFinger and another pointer with tool type MotionEvent.ToolTypeStylus. So it is important to examine the tool type of each pointer, regardless of the source reported by MotionEvent.Source.
TouchNavigation The input source is a touch device whose motions should be interpreted as navigation events. For example, an upward swipe should be as an upward focus traversal in the same manner as pressing up on a D-Pad would be. Swipes to the left, right and down should be treated in a similar manner.
Touchpad The input source is a touch pad or digitizer tablet that is not associated with a display (unlike InputDevice.SourceTouchscreen).
Touchscreen The input source is a touch screen pointing device.
Trackball The input source is a trackball.
Unknown The input source is unknown.
