County Jottings November 2012
Welcome to the Autumn edition of the County Jottings. Our golfing season is complete and we have had some success this year with our Seniors winning the Southern Counties Foursomes Championship at Sherborne in October. Unfortunately, in the Leagues it has been another case of close shaves as far as the County and Senior Leagues are concerned, with both teams failing to get an extra half a point in the crucial match. However, the various Junior teams have had a reasonably successful season against other Counties with the Under 16s winning their League and remaining undefeated throughout the season.
The Nike Futures Tour has had a very successful second year and this programme of events will continue through 2013. We are grateful to our Sponsors – Fullers and Nike – for their support this year and for their continued support for 2013. Congratulations to all the winners of our Championship and Trophy Events, also to those who represented the County at Junior, Senior and County levels. Jack Haines (Gerrards Cross) tied with Carl Corbin (Wokefield Park) for the main Order of Merit in a close run contest and George Baylis (Mill Ride) was the winner of the Junior Order of Merit.
David Shaw, the Seniors' team captain, has decided to stand down from his post. Our thanks go to David for his hard work and dedication over the past six years. He will be succeeded by Malcolm Reid, a County Captain.
The work of the Golf Partnership continues with the Academy Coaching programme for this year now at an end. Recruitment days have been held to identify the junior players with potential who will go forward into next year's programme.
Finally, a special thanks to all the Clubs and Members who willingly gave up their courses for our events this year. We are appreciative of your support of County Golf.
Needing just a draw against Essex to be almost certain of winning the League, we came up ½ point short at Romford on 9th September.
Once again just ½ point could see the difference between winning a League and coming second. This time at Romford we got off to a poor start against Essex and trailed at lunch 1-3. Nonetheless we felt we could still pull off an escape and despite losing the first 3 games in the afternoon we were still in with a shout right until the end but we never quite closed it out. To win the League we had to beat Hertfordshire in the re-arranged match at Brocket Hall on 23rd September.
The team at Romford: James Foster (Newbury & Crookham), David Langley (Castle Royle), Andrew Lynch (Stoke Park), Joe Richardson (Frilford Heath), Max Smith (Newbury Racecourse), Oliver Tite (Witney Lakes), Ashley Walton (Frilford Heath), Ashley Watkins (East Berkshire).
The Team at Romford
The re-arranged match against Hertfordshire was played at Brocket Hall on 23rd September. Again this was a tightly fought contest, with 6 games going to the last hole and narrow margins in the remaining games. Herts won 7-5 and yet again League success and failure has been decided by the narrowest of margins. In fact the BBO finished with more game points than the winners Essex but obviously with fewer match points.
All in all it was not a bad effort from a side with no full time golfers or players in the national set up. What was apparent across the year was that our stronger players struggled a bit against the stronger players from other Counties but our strength in depth meant our players in the lower order picked up points. James Foster earned his colours having played in five league matches.
The team at Brocket Hall: Carl Corbin (Wokefield Park), James Foster (Newbury & Crookham), David Langley (Castle Royle), Andrew Lynch (Stoke Park), Malcolm Reid (Sonning), Joe Richardson (Frilford Heath), Oliver Tite (Witney Lakes), Ashley Watkins (East Berkshire).
James Foster (Newbury & Crookham) received his County Colours from George Wilson
We played our second friendly match against Wellington College on 6th October at East Berkshire which resulted in a draw 4-4.
The team at East Berkshire: Patrick Bart (Burnham Beeches), Alistair Cameron (Beaconsfield), Zac Cooper (Beaconsfield), Michael East (Burnham Beeches), Chris Little (Frilford Heath), Alex Nicholls (Goring & Streatley), Max Nicholls (Newbury & Crookham), Tim Shin (Castle Royle)
The Under 16s took on Surrey in the annual match sponsored by 'The Mugs', played at Huntercombe on the 28th August. An excellent performance in the morning foursomes was followed up with a strong series of singles games and we eventually won 11-4. This makes the score 10-9 in our favour over the 19 years the match has been played.
The team at Huntercombe: Patrick Bart (Burnham Beeches), Sam Bower (Burnham Beeches), Dylan Brownlie (Castle Royle), Zac Cooper (Beaconsfield), George Gardner (Castle Royle), Chris Little (Frilford Heath), Will Preece (Chipping Norton), Alex Nicholls (Goring & Streatley), Max Nicholls (Newbury & Crookham), Elliot Wills (Beaconsfield).
The Team at Huntercombe
The 3rd League match was against Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire at Welwyn Garden City on 20th August. An excellent win against Bedfordshire 7½:4½ and an exciting draw with Hertfordshire means we have an excellent chance of winning the League for the first time.
The team at Welwyn Garden City: Patrick Bart (Burnham Beeches), Sam Brass (Castle Royle), Zac Cooper (Beaconsfield), George Gardner (Castle Royle), Chris Little (Frilford Heath), Alex Nicholls (Goring & Streatley), Max Nicholls (Newbury Racecourse), Elliot Wills (Beaconsfield).
The Under 16s completed their League season at Pavenham Park on 30th August with a whitewash of Middlesex and a narrow victory over Bedfordshire, winning the League for the first time.
The team at Pavenham Park: Patrick Bart (Burnham Beeches), Zac Cooper (Beaconsfield), Michael East (Burnham Beeches), George Gardner (Castle Royle), Chris Little (Frilford Heath), Alex Nicholls (Goring & Streatley), Max Nicholls (Newbury Racecourse), Elliot Wills (Beaconsfield).

Nike Futures Tour Order of Merit
The race for the Order of Merit Trophies resulted in a first win of the year for Ross Hampshire from the home club and the 6th win of the year for Nick Elmey (Drayton Park) on an autumnal day at The Oxfordshire on 31st October. Despite Nick's record number of wins on the Nike Tour this year, he was not able to overtake Steven Stanhope (Frilford Heath) in the Order of Merit. With Steven's 4 wins and 3 second place finishes on the Tour and his win in the Under 12s Championship, he just crept into the top spot finishing just over 3½ points ahead of Nick in the best 9 from 12 format. In the Under 14s Order of Merit an extremely close finish saw Zac Cooper (Harleyford), Elliot Wills (Beaconsfield) and Michael East (Burnham Beeches) all in with a chance of taking the title. Michael just squeezed in by the narrowest of margins with Zac finishing second and Elliot in third place.
Order of Merit Under 14 Order of Merit Under 12
1st Michael East (Burnham Beeches) 1st Steven Stanhope (Frilford Heath)
2nd Zac Cooper (Harleyford) 2nd Nick Elmey (Drayton Park)
3rd Elliot Wills (Beaconsfield) 3rd James Duffy (Castle Royle)
Michael East (Burnham Beeches)
Steven Stanhope (Frilford Heath)
Jack Haines (Buckinghamshire) successfully defended the Autumn Trophy over 28 holes at Harleyford on 21st September. Due to extreme slowness of play, with many groups taking between 4½ and 4¾ hours to complete 18 holes, the Committee decided that there was no chance of all the players finishing in daylight and therefore curtailed the second round to just 10 holes. Chris Little (Frilford Heath) finished just one shot adrift and Marc Grimsey (Harewood Downs) a further shot back.
Jack Haines (Buckinghamshire) - Autumn Trophy winner
On a lovely Autumnal day at Temple on 13th October Maidenhead got the better of Sonning in the Hillman Trophy Final. They got off to a flying start and soon had a 2 points advantage after winning the first 3 games but losing the 7th quite heavily. With Maidenhead dormie 4 in game 4 it was not long before they closed this one out to get the 4 points need for victory. With games 5 and 6 producing a win for both Clubs, the overall result was 5-2 to Maidenhead as they won the Trophy for the 3rd time having had success in 1993 and 1997.
Maidenhead: Stuart Greenfield, Andy Hing, Nigel Horbury, John Pulford, Barry Stone, Duncan Thomas (Captain), Jim Watson.
Sonning: Keith Avenell, Andy Bebb, John Connaughton, Gareth Edwards, Sean Hill, Richard Shillito (Captain), Mark Thompson.
Thorney Park overcame Harewood Downs Artisans in the Final of the Hillman Trophy Plate at Burnham Beeches on 21st October. Both teams were in their first Final but there were not many signs of nerves as the contest got underway. Most of the games went down to the wire but it was Thorney Park who got the better in the close matches and took the Trophy 5½-1½.
Thorney Park: Dave Goff, Tony Jones, David McJannet, Tyson Pickett, Mark Towner (Captain), Colin Verrall, Steve Wincott.
Harewood Downs AGC: Brian Bradshaw, Tony Cooke, Allen Ginger, Tony Jeffrey (Captain), Andy Porter, Chris Sharp, Colin Smith.
In a nail biting finish to the Order of Merit, 4 players were in with a chance at Harleyford on 21st September in the final event of the year. Going in to the Autumn Trophy, Carl Corbin (Wokefield Park) held a 6½ point lead over Ashley Watkins (East Berkshire), a 7 point over Alex Lodge (East Berkshire) and an 8 point lead over Jack Haines (Buckinghamshire). Any number of permutations was possible but, for any of the others to win, Carl had to finish outside the top 6 at least. With all the players in the last 2 groups it was not until the complete scores had been entered that it transpired that Carl and Jack had tied on 37½ points with Ashley in 3rd on 35 points and Alex 4th on 34½ points. With no rules in place for a countback to decide the winner the Trophy was awarded jointly to two outstanding players.
Jack Haines (Buckinghamshire) & Carl Corbin (Wokefield Park) - Order of Merit Winners
Congratulations to George Baylis (Mill Ride) after an outstanding year in Junior Opens, he won the Junior Order of Merit by a long way with David Langley (Castle Royle) and Luke Fitzpatrick (Stoke Park) in joint second place.
England Golf – South Eastern Group Events
Southern Counties Seniors Foursomes
The Seniors played Surrey in the Semi Final on the morning of August 14th at Hockley GC near Winchester. We played well to achieve a 4½-½ win. The other Semi Final was between Hampshire and Sussex which Hampshire won 3-2. We looked forward to some revenge over Hampshire who beat us last year at Hankley Common and we were not disappointed as we won 4-1 in a series of tight games. We then went on to Sherborne in October to play the winners of the 3 other Group Sections.
The team at Hockley: Ashley Brewer (Denham), Rod Crisp (Ellesborough), Adrian Donkersley (Gerrards Cross), Bob Lander (The Lambourne), David Lane (Goring & Streatley), David Niven (Newbury & Crookham), Cliff Pearce (Ellesborough), Gilbert Runnicles (Gerrards Cross) Phil Sewell (Castle Royle), Steve Webb (Henley).
The Seniors finished their season in style by winning the Southern Counties Seniors at Sherborne on 21st October. The four finalists from the Preliminary Rounds were BB&O, Suffolk, Gloucestershire and England County Seniors Champions - Hertfordshire. We were drawn to play Hertfordshire in the morning semi final and were determined to make up for our narrowest of defeats in the League and in the County Qualifying at Moor Park in June. Much discussion over dinner resulted in a change of our batting order as we tried to second guess the Hertfordshire strategy. They must have had the same thoughts as we ended up playing the same people - just in a different order!
As predicted we lost games 1 and 3 but compensated with good wins in games 2 and 4. It was all down to the last game and we went down the last 1 up. A half would be no good as the tie break formula would give Hertfordshire the win. Rod Crisp and Gilbert Runnicles were not looking too good after the tee shot, but a good recovery and excellent 3rd shot saw them reach the par 5 in regulation and 2 putts were good enough to win 1 up.
We took on Suffolk in the final after lunch and with the weather closing in we had to finish after 11 holes. We were well ahead and the end result was about right at 3½-1½. This was a fitting end to David Shaw's tenure as Seniors' Manager and we thank him for all his hard work over the past 6 years.
The team at Sherborne: Ashley Brewer (Denham), Rod Crisp (Ellesborough), Adrian Donkersley (Gerrards Cross), Bob Lander (The Lambourne), David Lane (Goring & Streatley), David Niven (Newbury & Crookham), Cliff Pearce (Ellesborough), Gilbert Runnicles (Gerrards Cross), Phil Sewell (Castle Royle), Steve Webb (Henley).
The Team at Hockley & Sherborne
South Eastern Group Seniors Championship (Alan Hobson Trophy)
David Niven won the England Golf South Eastern Seniors Championship at Felixstowe Ferry on 26th September. He led by 1 shot from John Ambridge, a recent England International, after an excellent 74 in terrible conditions. The second round was abandoned after torrential rain (makes a change in 2012) and the result declared on the first round score. Duncan Forbes (Sonning), our President Elect, won his age group with an excellent round of 79.
Southern Counties Junior Foursomes
As defending champions this was always going to be a tough act to follow as we went to Sandford Springs on 22nd/23rd August. None of these matches are easy and we opened up against strong Kent and Hertfordshire teams. In very close games 4 of the 6 results were halves and a win a piece, resulting in 2 drawn matches. Not a bad start, but could have been better. The afternoon we were up against Sussex and Surrey and another 3-3 draw against Sussex was offset with a 5-1 win against Surrey. We were still in with a chance of retaining our title but Essex and Hampshire were ahead of us at the half way mark. The next morning we played Suffolk and Hampshire and had a good win against the former but lost to Hampshire 5-1 just coming up short at the 18th on 2 occasions. Middlesex and Essex were next and despite a valiant effort we could only muster a win against Middlesex and a draw with Essex who took the title with Hampshire second and us in 3rd place. A great effort and as it transpired one missed putt on the last green in the last match was the difference between 1st and 3rd.
BB & O County Union Half Year Council Meeting
A turnout of 50 attended the Half Year Council Meeting on 24th October. The President, Max Kaye, highlighted the achievements of the year. After the meeting the delegates enjoyed the hospitality of Sonning Golf Club with Peter Smith and Keith Chantrey from Donnington Valley winning first prize in the Greensomes event.

Q: ignore certain files on HG pull Thanks for reading my situation..
My situation is this:
RepoA (7GB) -  I have read access
RepoB (7GB - Forked from RepoA) -  I have read/write access, but no admin access, and cannot fork.
I did not set up any of these, but am now the admin of the source code.
Currently a company is doing work in RepoA and we are pulling local and pushing into RepoB where we are also doing work.. This works great, but the repositories are so large it is very annoying.
RepoA has some stuff, RepoB as everything
I created RepoC, which is a clone of B minus all of the gigs of assets.
RepoC - cloned from RepoB with hg convert --filemap map.txt RepoB small_clone/RepoC
I now have a very nice manageable 300 MB repository in RepoC (Good).  Now RepoB is useless to me.
However when someone makes a change in RepoA, I want that change in RepoC.  In the past I have had RepoA in my hgrc, and simply done a hg pull RepoA.  But when I do that now from the small repo (RepoC), it brings in all the assets I specified I did not want in RepoC.
Is there a way I can continue to take updates from RepoA that ignore certain directories?  Or is there a way after I hg pull from RepoA, that I can prune out any new files I do not want prior to pushing to RepoC.  I have not done an HG update, but the gigs of files are showing up in .hg/store/data.  I am wondering if I can somehow yank them out of there, then hg update, then commit, then push
Any advice?
Thank you!

A: There is no direct way - mercurial requires to know the complete history, and that includes all the big assets (there's no shallow clone (yet)).
However you might consider to use some of the extensions which make it easier to deal with huge files or many sub projects:

*

*largefiles: LargefilesExtension

*subrepository: https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/help/subrepos

*instead of subrepository the guestrepository (3rd-party): GuestrepoExtension
If these changes to the workflow don't see the right approach (they all have their rough edges - check them carefully), you can only export the patches and import them into the other repository, either manually or even scripted; within repoC something like
hg export -rXXX -R path/to/repoB | patch might do the trick - but for each revision.

'Ships of Opportunity' contribute to MERIS validation
ESA /	Applications /	Observing the Earth /	The Living Planet Programme
Since the launch of Envisat in 2002, numerous validation activities have been carried out to confirm that the data received from its ten optical and radar instruments are as accurate as possible.
As part of this ongoing commitment, commercial ships equipped with scientific equipment, so-called 'Ships of Opportunity', are now being used to monitor water conditions to compare in-situ data with data from Envisat.
VAMP (Validation of MERIS data Products) is an ESA and Norwegian Space Centre project dedicated to validating MERIS (Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer) data products. The project has been run by the Norwegian Institute for Water Research since the launch of Envisat and now includes Ships of Opportunity in its activities. This makes use of the 'FerryBox' project which, supported by the European Union, is a multi-disciplinary research and development project using commercial ships such as ferries to monitor the environmental condition of European seas. Installing scientific equipment on commercial ferries offers a cost-effective method of realising a host of measurements on water quality.
The ferrybox sensors
One such validation campaign has just taken place in the coastal waters around the UK and Norway and made use of the Norwegian coastal steamer Hurtigruten MS Trollfjord. Leaving from Bergen in Norway, the 11-day campaign route passed Lerwick in the Shetland Isles (Scotland), Greenock (Scotland), Isle of Man, Dublin (Ireland), Portsmouth (England), Edinburgh (Scotland) and finally back to Bergen (Norway). The campaign involved taking in-situ samples for measurements of constituents such as Chlorophyll-a, suspended matter and yellow substance absorption throughout the duration of the cruise.
"The system on board continuously measures the Chlorophyll-a fluorescence, particle concentration as well as temperature and salinity. The ship is also equipped with a sensor for measuring the reflectance from the water, which can be used directly for validating the marine signal measured by MERIS", explained Kai Soerensen from the Norwegian Institute for Water Research (NIVA). "An automatic water sampler is a very important piece of equipment for testing these water constituents. Scientific personnel from NIVA participated in the cruise and about 100 stations were sampled. Later this year, another Hurtigruten vessel will be used for a similar exercise."
MERIS image showing algae in the North Sea
MERIS is an imaging spectrometer that measures the solar radiation reflected by the Earth, at a ground spatial resolution of 300m, with 15 spectral bands in visible and near infrared spectrum. It is primarily used for the measurement of ocean colour – data on which can be converted into a measurement of chlorophyll pigment concentration, suspended sediment concentrations and aerosol loads over the sea. Knowledge of ocean colour contributes to our understanding of the ocean carbon cycle, the thermal regime of the upper ocean, the management of fisheries and the management of coastal zones. MERIS data is also used for land and atmospheric monitoring.
In-situ data retrieved from this recent VAMP campaign will be quantitatively compared with the corresponding water constituent concentrations as derived from MERIS data products, thereby further ensuring that MERIS continues to provide high quality data.

The Breeders' Scrappy 'Mountain Battle' Esquire music critic Andy Langer discusses the week's new album releases, including albums from The Breeders, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Hayes Carll, Ike Reilly, and Man Man.

Esquire music critic Andy Langer discusses the week's new album releases, including albums from The Breeders, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Hayes Carll, Ike Reilly, and Man Man.
The Breeders' Mountain Battles was written while twin sisters Kim and Kelley Deal were touring with The Pixies; the disc was eventually produced by Steve Albini. While there's no obvious radio-friendly single like the band's hit "Cannonball," the songs here are scrappy, experimental, and eclectic. According to Langer, "That's kind of what you expect from The Breeders. This is a solid Breeders album for Breeders fans."
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds also return with Dig Lazarus Dig!!! The album, which is loosely based on the biblical story of Lazarus, is loud, dark, and eerie. "He's the king of the murder ballad; of the dark humor, the dark setups for dark punchlines," Langer says. "He's in a lot of ways the original goth."
Philadelphia's Man Man uses fake names like Honus Honus, Chang Wang, and Pow Wow and wears warpaint on stage. Langer expects the band's latest record, Rabbit Habits — which includes an array of tubas, bicycle horns, and spoons — to be the album that gets people excited to see Man Man's carnival-esque live show on all the summer festivals.
Hailing from Chicago, Ike Reilly is a smart and witty singer-songwriter who draws comparisons to The Hold Steady and Bruce Springsteen . His latest, Poison the Hit Parade, collects demos from his previous three records.
Songs like "She Left Me For Jesus," on Hayes Carrl's major-label debut Trouble In Mind, might not get played by country radio. But, Langer says, "It's a solid yet irreverent yet deeply self-deprecating record."

If you're not watching Voltron (and dear lord, why not, it's great), you may not know that the internet has decided that the show is gay af. But now the creators are making it official. According to Comicbook.com, who broke the story, showrunner Lauren Montgomery said that fans would soon meet Shiro's significant other: Adam.
"Creators said the men were heading towards marriage but broke it off when Shiro chose his job," Megan Peters of Comic.com reported on Twitter.
The implications for fans of the show are pretty huge. Thus far the show has taken place in battlegrounds throughout the galaxy as the Voltron team battle the empirical Galra. While Shiro started the series near Earth, the show's lead has yet to return home.
That's not to mention the pretty big win this is for representation in general. As Geek.com's resident gay, I can confirm that Shiro is amazing and the queer community will be glad to have him join the team. He's a well-respected pilot and leader. Plus, he's the head of the paladins, the group of sci-fi warriors badasses that fly robotic space lions to fight evil star invaders.
Let me tell you, there's absolutely no shortage of fans of the show in the LGBT community already, and part of that may be that many of the show's cast are legendarily shippable. This past season, fans of the Shiro-Keith pairing have had plenty of fodder, too. And that could open the door to a pretty nuanced plot arc. It's not like there's nothing between Shiro and Keith, after all, and it'd make sense that if work was a limiting factor that maybe Shiro just needs to date within his circle, y'know?
Still… rough time for Adam… if he's back on earth, he's just living life and hoping that this man that he loves is safe, fighting on the stellar frontier. And… how could he compete with that like, either? Even if things do turn out okay, why would Shiro choose Adam now that he can't relate to this grand adventure in the same way?
Wow. Okay. I'm stopping. You get the idea.
The series will be coming to an end pretty soon. The seventh season premiers August 10 on Netflix, and then the show is confirmed to be ending at season 8. Wherever they go with this plot arc, I just hope it's well done.

This DIY Kit Turns Your Game Boy Advance SP Into An Arcade
The Game Boy Advance SP is one of the best handheld systems ever made, fixing nearly every issue the original Game Boy Advance model had while also lookin a whole lot sleeker. It's also, apparently, the perfect system to use in a DIY-style tiny arcade kit, and you can buy one for yourself now.
Available in a variety of styles from the Etsy seller RetroJoyGaming, these Game Boy Advance mini arcade kits come with pre-sized pieces of wood that have been stained and oiled, leaving room for you to pop your open system in and start gaming like you're playing on an arcade cabinet. There are even little marked cutouts for where the shoulder and power buttons go so you don't need to remove it to turn it off or play a more complex game.
First kit went out yesterday… Only about 6 years after I first came up with the idea. That's a pretty decent turn around time for me 😀 pic.twitter.com/ZzQPYNybp0
— Retro Joy (@retrojoygaming) March 27, 2021
You'll also get a design template in case you want to then add your own custom artwork to it, and you can pop your system back out if you want to use it the standard way again.
As an optional mod, you can add a tiny joystick to the control pad, though this does require screwing it in place and should really only be done if you don't plan on using the Game Boy Advance SP for anything else.
It's certainly a unique take on the at-home arcade space and quite a bit cheaper than the pre-made machines available from other companies. With lots of arcade ports available on the Game Boy Advance, as well, it'll feel even more authentic to play on it.

I recently found myself missing Disney and started going through my archives browsing for photos to edit again. I went through and found a few to touch up, but I ended up gravitating to my favorite image.
I've been to Epcot a countless number of times and never have come across a moment like this. I was just passing through while on my way to Japan for dinner. They were doing their usual poses,nothing really out the norm. Then Aladdin planted a kiss right on Jasmine's cheek! Talk about some serious fan service! It was truly magical, something that embodies what Disney is all about. The sad thing is that something like this may never happen again. Since Jasmine and Aladdin have been moved indoors. It's sad that they were moved inside, I always enjoyed seeing the characters while walking through the countries.

Biografia
Diebitsch nacque il 3 gennaio 1899, nella città di Hannover, in Germania. Si arruolò nella Kaiserliche Marine nel 1915, dove finì il suo apprendistato come imbianchino, e alla fine della prima guerra mondiale ottenne la Croce di Ferro di II Classe mentre si trovava in un battaglione.

Iscrizione al partito nazista
Diebitsch aderì al partito nazista il 1º maggio del 1920, e per i successivi tre anni fece parte dei Freikorps. Nel 1925 terminò la sua formazione come artista, lavorando per diversi anni come pittore e artista a Monaco di Baviera.

Nel 1932 iniziò a progettare le iconiche divise nere delle SS, assieme all'aiuto del designer grafico Walter Heck.

Got this via email. Have not tried it myself and I'm not even sure I'm going to make it to the slopes this year, but if you looking for a 3D map for skiing, this could be what you are looking for.
Movingworld is glad to announce the release of "Maps 3D 2.5" an 3D outdoor App for the iPhone. Thanks to Maps 3D (formerly GeoGuide 3D) you will never get lost on the slopes again. The outdoor tracking app retrieves the required off-line maps for the category "Ski, Bike & Hike" before the start of a trip, marks waypoints and keeps an eye on the destination. As a special Christmas present the new version 2.5 offers 340 ski areas in 3D. This way the next ski lift is easily located, even in heavy snowfall. Till December 20th the app is being offered at only $1.99 instead of $2.99.
Venture of the road and the best navigation system is of no use. It's now time for the outdoor apps. GeoGuide 3D is an established name in this area. However, in order to gain greater international attention, it changed it's name. In it's new version 2.5 it will now be the iPhone app Maps 3D.
The outdoor app incorporates data from OpenStreetMap and OpenCycleMap. Anyone that would like to go hiking, climbing, cycling or be in involved in geocaches, simply downloads the required maps in three possible resolutions from the internet. This can be done before the trip and the data may be retrieved off-line at any time on the iPhone. Locally it can be viewed either in 2D or 3D (realistic relief with elevation lines) in order to avoid getting lost.
The app finds the current location via GPS and marks it on the map. Maps 3D is familiar with plenty of natural reference points such as mountains, lakes, rivers, trails and many other landmarks. Waypoints may be imported or newly added during the preparation process. Destinations can be defined and easily located through precise instructions, including the assistance of a compass. The automatic tracking feature records the already traveled distance. After completing the route it may be sent out via e-mail.
The new version provides sharper maps and shorter downloading times. Waypoints may be linked directly from the app with a photo. Important for cross-country navigation: for the first time the new version of Maps 3D 2.5 will display the linear distance from the actual position to the destination. This is a great tool to get oriented and to precisely target the destination point.
For one week only, Maps 3D 2.5 is $1.99 USD (Reg $2.99) or equivalent amount in other currencies and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Navigation category. The lite version may be tried out for free. The update offers more than 60 improvements and is of course free of charge for previous users of GeoGuide 3D. Journalists that would like to test the program may request a promotional code from Press Agency Typemania. This way the app can be obtained and tested free of charge.


Esmé Berman, a Jewish South African art historian, author and researcher, was born in 1929. She enrolled at the University of Witswatersrand in 1946 and completed a degree in Visual Arts and an honours degree in Psychology. Upon completion she went to London to study Drama at the Trinity College.
She returned to South Africa and started writing art reviews for Newscheck, a local magazine with the artist Robert Hodgins who worked as the assistant editor.
Since the 1960s Berman also worked as a freelance writer and contributed as reviewer to radio programmes.
Berman gave evening classes in culture, architecture, literature at in the Hillbrow Study Centre. It was through these courses and her lectures that she made the decision to write Art and Artists of South Africa. She sent a selection of these lectures in manuscript form to publisher AA Balkema. He declined to publish the lectures and instead encouraged her to write a comprehensive and well-researched book on South African art.
Berman made the plan to produce the book Art and Artists of South Africa, by visiting artists across the country, travelling thousands of kilometres to conduct personal interviews – in a way reminiscent of the Renaissance art historian Giorgio Vasari's (1511-1574) approach in his book, translated as Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects.
With the publication of the book the pictorial dictionary, Art and Artists of South Africa, An Illustrated Biographical Dictionary and Historical Survey of Painters, Sculptors & Graphic Artists Since 1875, which was first published by Balkema in 1970 and revised in 1983, Berman established herself as a respected researcher and author within the South African art community. The book incorporates not only South African artists and their works, but also how and why they practice through vivid photographs and a comprehensive text. The book is used still to this day as a reliable resource for South African visual art up to the early 1980's.
In 1987 Berman moved Los Angeles but returned to Johannesburg in 2003 after the death of her husband.
Another book of note by Berman is Africa, the Sun and Shadows, published in 2010, which gives a personal and detailed account of the artist Alexis Preller's life. Preller (1911 – 1975) was a renowned South African painter and Berman and him were close for many years. The book gives an intimate look at the man and his way of working.
Berman founded the Children's Art Centre in Johannesburg, was the Director of the Art Institute South Africa, an executive member of the S.A. Association of Arts, a professional adviser to the Rembrandt van Rijn Art Foundation and permanent art critic to the SABC and various journals. She was on the jury for and an adjudicator for numerous national and international art exhibitions.
On 30 March 2016, the University of the Witwatersrand honored Berman with a Doctor of Literature degree (honoris causa) in acknowledgement of her contribution to South African art history, art discourse and art criticism.
Later in life Berman suffered from Parkinson's disease.
She past away on 4 June 2017 at her home in Johannesburg and is survived by three children and two grandchildren.

Should You Conduct a Brand Audit?
At some point in the life of a company, the brand may have gotten off track. This can happen for a variety of reasons, including poor market research, bad consumer reviews and overall mismanagement of reputation by the marketing/PR team.
Brand audits can help determine which qualities of your brand are currently effective and which are not, and redevelop your messaging goals so your campaigns can produce better results.
Once you have a good understanding of what's currently right or wrong with your brand, you can create an action plan to readjust your standards and a marketing strategy to support it.
Now that you know why you should perform a brand audit, let's dive into the HOW of it.
Your first step is to take some time to brainstorm all of the areas that directly or indirectly relate to your business. These could be things like the purpose of your website and printed collateral, your brand's main competition, your target market and product/service niche, current and anticipated industry trends, and your specific differentiators like price and quality of service.
You'll want to get your hands on as much analytics as you can and scrutinize it for any clues. This data can include things like website traffic analytics, bounce rate, pageviews, clickthrough rates, tracking and promo codes for printed material, and overall conversion rates.
When you analyze this data, look for any clues as to what you are doing well, and what could use improvement. How are your response rates? Are emails getting opened? In general, are your conversion rates increasing or decreasing over time?
So far, you've analyzed some important data to understand the performance strength of your brand. This has given you a good bird's-eye view. But to really understand the overall health of your brand, you'll need to hear directly from your customers on how they perceive and speak about you.
Consider running an online poll to get a quick gauge on how your customers feel about you. Keep it simple, polls usually consist of one single question. You can run different polls for each question you want to ask.
Did the customer service representative handle your call quickly?
How would you rate our website based on ease of navigation?
Please rate your overall experience on our website?
You can create a poll through Facebook or use a simple DIY website like EasyPolls.net to create some.
An online survey can help you get a more comprehensive assessment of your brand. You can hire a research firm to carry out a physical survey on your behalf or do it yourself using an online tool. Obviously the second option is more budget-friendly.
You'll never be able to get all of your customers to answer your survey, obviously, so your goal should be to gather feedback from at least 50 users of each target market.
Once you have completed the survey, compile the results, paying special attention to the language your customers used to describe your brand. Jot down any common themes or repetitive language that was used. You should consider testing your customers' language in your marketing materials. It will most likely resonate with other prospects.
A brand audit is only good if you take the insights you've gleaned and put them to action. Be sure to create a detailed report of your findings and set actionable targets to address the issues. Just make sure you set realistic expected results and timelines.
Whether your audit's results demand a full rebrand or just a handful of simple adjustments, it's important to follow-up over the course of the next few months and measure the impact of your efforts. Only then will you be able to determine whether the rebrand was successful, or if further adjustments are necessary.
Brand audits should ideally be conducted every few years to measure your perception against your goals.


Ahead of the 2014 Australian Multicultural Marketing Awards, B&T spoke to Helen Kellie, the chief content officer at SBS about the channel's award nomination for its broadcast of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
"Nominations are always something that makes us feel very proud, we're very lucky to have been nominated – and it's something that's really close to our heart, because it combines SBS's two passions; our passion for cultural diversity in Australia and the passion for the world game of football," said Kellie.
The marketing campaign for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, in its entirety, was 12 months in the making. It was called 'Brazil is Coming' and it was translated into 24 languages. The World Cup match commentary was broadcast in 15 languages. "It was more than any other broadcaster globally, and more than any other in the history of the World Cup," said Kellie.
The FIFA World Cup just so happens to be at the centre of SBS's over arching marketing strategy, and with its multicultural audience in mind, the network was able to leverage this diversity to market the international sport of football to an array of people. "A key part of the multicultural strategy for the marketing campaign saw us engaging heavily with communities whose country of origin were competing in the World Cup," explained Kellie.
SBS attended major live site events and venues across Sydney and Melbourne in locations known to be gathering points for these communities. Examples include: Sydney's Enmore Theatre for Greek matches; Wollongong's The Fraternity Club for an Italian match and Melbourne's The Hofbräuhaus for German matches. In total SBS attended 41 events for eight different language communities.
With roughly 1,200 staff, Kellie admits every team across SBS was touched by and involved in The World Cup coverage and spirit in one way or another. This synergy assisted in the success of the campaign and match coverage.
SBS measured engagement across all of the platforms it used for broadcasting the World Cup including standard TV ratings; Neilsen and OzTam, stream requests through the World Cup website and apps and analytics.
"We're working through the information we've gathered about how much people used radio, TV and online to interact with the 2014 World Cup and we'll us this to help us for the next one. We're already thinking about the 2018 World Cup," explained Kellie.
Capitalising on this insight, SBS amplified it on social media by creating community specific events and competitions on Facebook for example."Lots of things in the social media space allowed people to engage not only with football, but with people from their cultural community," said Kellie.
Kellie explained the importance of retaining some of the audience who tuned in for the World Cup once it wrapped, which was also a component of SBS's overall strategy. "We made sure we had content coming out of the World Cup, we launched big content pieces on the back of it all," said Kellie.

The Baltimore Ravens' 2013 rushing "attack" ranked as the fourth-worst in Football Outsiders' database going back to the 1989 season.
There was plenty of blame to go around, but Ray Rice's inability to make tacklers miss in the open field was the most obvious factor.
Playing through a season-long hip injury, Rice was so stiff in his movements that he was even compared to the snowsuit kid in "A Christmas Story."
The good news for Ravens fans is that a slimmed-down Rice appears to have recaptured 2012 form.
The Baltimore Sun noted early in training camp that the 27-year-old "looked like the Rice of old" and "his cuts were excellent."
Coach John Harbaugh confirmed as much after Monday's practice.
"Ray has looked really good," Harbaugh said, via CSN Baltimore. "Comparisons to years in the past -- we'll find all that out during the season. But he's in tremendous shape. I've seen him make a good lateral cut. He's got really good burst, acceleration is there, vision is there. He's been very patient with the zone runs. Ray looks really good."
It's refreshing to hear Harbaugh praising the lateral jump cuts that were noticeably missing from Rice's repertoire last season.
A healthier Bernard Pierce will open the season as the Ravens' early-down back as Rice serves his two-game suspension. All early-camp signs point to Rice resuming lead-back status as soon as he returns in late September.


I've had a lot of changes in my life over the past few months and its made me rethink my goals and rearrange my schedule. I LOVE being apart of the YouTube community. I don't only make videos for YouTube. I also watch and interact with other YouTubers. It's a great place to be entertained, to learn, and to make friends. With that said, I know that I want to continue creating content for YouTube, it's just that lately, it's been more difficult.. and with my life changes I KNEW it'd be difficult.
My biggest challenge has been creating my own artwork while also doing the "extra" artwork for YouTube content. I've decided I'm going to merge the two. This means I'll be making videos of what I want to do and what I create instead of user requested videos. I'm going to call this a "trail period" and set a goal for 3 months. For 3 months I'll be doing videos this way. If you guys still want me to make "How to Draw" and "How to Paint" videos, don't be afraid during this time to tell me what you want to see!
I thought my shift in video direction was also a good time to talk about how to be a better artist. Towards the end of the video I talk about this and break my advice down to beginners, intermediate, and advanced artists. Watch and find out what you can do!
See you next Sunday with a new video!

I hope you enjoyed this pot of digital GOLD! If you find any of these drafts that make it to Twitter (hint: they will) reply saying "drafted" on them! Leave me a comment about what other videos you want to see AND I'LL MAKE THEM!
Nothing catch me off guard like an attractive person at the BMV.
Just came from the BMV ( Bureau of Motor Vehicles) and they tell you that you can smile but you can't show teeth so now everyone just looks kinda pissed in their photos.
Megan: You know when everything's distorted and you're like... "I don't feel good"
Just found your channel and this video had me dying 😂😂. May get back on Twitter just to *hopefully* see some of these tweets in my feed.
I feel like the reason Tim Berners-Lee invented the world wide web is so I can binge on Megan Batoon videos on TVclip.
*"i don't even have memories from 2005"* 😂😂😂 SAAAME!!!!
When are you posting a new video?
who are u dating? are u dating the camera guy in shane?
5:24 needs a trigger warning. I was not ready for that.
Do you smile in driver license pictures in the states? In Canada they all look like mug shots like no joke when you get your licence and you show some one the first thing they say is why crime you did to make you look why you do.
Love ur surname. which in RUssian means a loaf of bread.
I forgot where I heard this but "Man bun is the millennial mullet"
can you do a dance cover to a BTS please?
How are you so funny !!
I usually always delete my drafts on twitter so i don't really have any tweets. The best time to read tweets are always after 12am to 3am because everyone becomes Dr. Phil and a masters in psychology. Your energy levels are unreal Megan! Would be cool to have some vlog videos here and there and some more dance choreo videos.
Have you tried the new " Loaded Fries " from Jack in the Box ?
i wanna be friends with you .
Just a question no hate but did she ever get together with Shane's camera man?
Let's get Megan to 1 million subs!!!!
All this laughter and joy, wish I didn't have to back to the fun house.
Can I like this video 10 more times please?
no really who is this?
They call me germ bc there's a 99.9% chance you can get rid of me but a 100% chance that I'll come back.
I LOVE YOUR NECKLACE!!!! WHERE DID YOU BUY IT?!?!?!?!
not sure about the lighting set up. aka the window on the left side of your face.
Irene's laugh is so contagious.
My drafts folder is empty because I apparently ignore that voice saying, "Mmmm, you sure you want to post that?"
"The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. "


The Galaxy S9 and S9+ are smarter and faster than their predecessors, and they shoot better-looking photos, too. But that doesn't mean they're the right phones for you. Our Galaxy S9 review is now live, and there are some things we really like about Samsung's flagships and some that should make you think twice.
Here are the pros and cons of the Galaxy S9 and S9+ so far.
The "Super-Speed" dual-pixel camera in the Galaxy S9 and S9+ offers a variable aperture that opens as wide as f/1.5, which captures 28 percent more light. That means you'll get better-looking shots in dim conditions, such as at a restaurant, without using a flash. In addition, the camera has dedicated memory for improved noise reduction.
Everything looks better in slow-mo, and the Galaxy S9 can shoot at up to 960 frames per second, producing dramatically awesome results. In our testing, we had a blast recording videos of a dog eating treats in slow-mo and a ping pong player executing a nasty slice. Plus, the S9 can sense motion automatically.
Thanks to its Snapdgraon 845 processor, the Galaxy S9 is the speediest Android phone we've tested. For instance, on Geekbench 4, which measures overall performance, the S9+ notched a score of 8,295. That blows the doors off of the Snapdragon 835-powered Google Pixel 2 XL (6,282) and Samsung's own Galaxy Note 8 (6,564). You can see all of the S9 benchmarks here.
The S9+ also made quick work of our video editing test, which involves transcoding a 4K video file. It took Samsung's handset 2 minutes and 32 seconds, which is about 30 seconds faster than the Pixel 2 XL and a minute and a half faster than the Galaxy S8. However, the iPhone X took only 42 seconds.
Bixby Vision on the Galaxy S9 has a higher IQ than before, which enables all sorts of new capabilities. For instance, you can point the camera at a sign or menu in a foreign language, and it will be translated on-screen instantly (54 languages are supported). There's also a virtual-makeup feature that lets you try on lipstick and other items using augmented reality and the front camera; from there, you can buy what you like straight from Sephora.
However, the Places finder didn't work very well in our tests, and the Bixby Vision had trouble recognizing some products and food.
The Infinity Display on the Galaxy S8 and S8+ went nearly from edge to edge, and Samsung has trimmed those edges even more for the Galaxy S9 and S9+. This makes the handsets even easier to use with one hand. In addition, the Super AMOLED screens on these phones are brighter than they were on the Galaxy S8, and we prefer the color saturation on Samsung's panels.
If you thought the sound coming from the Galaxy S8 and S8+ was weak, Samsung has heard your complaints. The stereo speakers on the S9 and S9+ are 1.4 times louder, and they're tuned by AKG for more robust audio. Plus, these speakers support Dolby Atmos, which delivers a 3D-like audio experience in content that supports the format.
We were floored when we saw how much faster the Galaxy S9 is than the iPhone X when comparing 4G LTE performance. On the Speedtest.net app over T-Mobile's network, the S9+ averaged 71.6 Mbps downloads and 10.1 Mbps uploads. The iPhone X averaged 48.8 Mbps down and 7.7 Mbps up. The S9+ was also faster when downloading videos and uploading photos.
When does it hit stores. And how good is it.
Better photos, new video features, new AR features, better screen, better sound, lower price.....but oh no...the emojis are creepy....forget it! no thank you!!


or leave new puzzles even stranger?
If there are answers, I have questions…or is it an addiction?
that life by day cannot.
"One hope at a time, one step then another…" Best not get lost in dreams though, when reality is 2/3rd of every day.
to the cherished strawberry blonde there.
when lost in moments of a kiss.
An unexpected lovey turn as stanza two crystallized, but hey happy writing keeps the mind and heart youthful.
and wake no longer hopeful.
with a kiss upon the cheek?
compared to such a living?
If we can't be virtuous, at least be honest, and with the self if not beyond.
an ounce of futile past inert.
may yet prevail life's shadows.
to keep alight that wonder spark.
our roads diverged to cross again.


For many students coming to our private school in San Jose, they've been at another school previously and are now switching over to East Valley Christian School (we're so glad to have you!). This can be an understandably scary time for new students, as they are moving away from their old friends, as well as teachers and even just a building that they're familiar with.
We know how anxious some students can be coming into a new school year, which is why we have some tips to help students cope and adapt quickly during this time. See how you can best help your child deal with their school anxiety, and contact our private school for questions about enrollment, registration, and any other information you're looking for.
"How are you feeling about the new school year starting?" "Fine." This kind of conversation is probably pretty familiar with many families, and parents know that, more often than not, they're not getting the important details. No matter how your child describes how they're feeling, start taking the role of an active observer, noticing if their behavior, moods, or attitudes are shifting in any way. Next, approach the topic in some more specific ways: Are you nervous, excited, or both for the new school year? What are you looking forward to? What are you worried about? Understanding the root of their anxiety can help you know how to best respond and assist.
After the first day, week, or even month of school, your child might still be adjusting. Make checking in a consistent thing, to continue gauging how much support they might need. It can be as simple as sharing breakfast together on a Saturday, or taking your child out for a lunch date and a movie. Spending some quality time together is a great way to open up the door of trust and communication.
There are tons of amazing movies that your child can probably relate to. For older kids, "Mean Girls" has the perfect demonstration of how important it is to be true to yourself and to those around you (while having some one-liners that are so fetch). Kids of all ages will love and relate to "Inside Out," which also does such a great job of talking about emotions and how to manage them. Make a movie night of it with the whole family, and use this as a talking point with your child as well.
One of the biggest fears of everyone going to a new school? The worry that they won't make any friends. No matter what, your child will make friends in time at our private school, but encourage your children to expedite the process by signing up for some sports or clubs for them to enjoy. This is a great way to help them get to know other kids faster, and connect over similar interests.
With East Valley Christian School, your child will be in an incredible academic learning environment and community — but it can still be tough to adjust to a new school. Try out these ideas with your young one, and have a great school year!

Children's Stories >
Knave and Fool
by Juliana Horatia Gatty Ewing
KNAVE AND FOOL.
A Fool and a Knave once set up house together; which shows what a fool the Fool was.
The Knave was delighted with the agreement; and the Fool thought himself most fortunate to have met with a companion who would supply his lack of mother-wit.
As neither of them liked work, the Knave proposed that they should live upon their joint savings as long as these should last; and, to avoid disputes, that they should use the Fool's share till it came to an end, and then begin upon the Knave's stocking.
So, for a short time, they lived in great comfort at the Fool's expense, and were very good company; for easy times make easy tempers.
Just when the store was exhausted, the Knave came running to the Fool with an empty bag and a wry face, crying, "Dear friend, what shall we do? This bag, which I had safely buried under a gooseberry-bush, has been taken up by some thief, and all my money stolen. My savings were twice as large as yours; but now that they are gone, and I can no longer perform my share of the bargain, I fear our partnership must be dissolved."
"Not so, dear friend," said the Fool, who was very good-natured; "we have shared good luck together, and now we will share poverty. But as nothing is left, I fear we must seek work."
"You speak very wisely," said the Knave, "And what, for instance, can you do?"
"Very little," said the Fool; "but that little I do well."
"So do I," said the Knave. "Now can you plough, or sow, or feed cattle, or plant crops?"
"Farming is not my business," said the Fool.
"Nor mine," said the Knave; "but no doubt you are a handicraftsman. Are you clever at carpentry, mason's work, tailoring, or shoemaking?"
"I do not doubt that I should have been had I learned the trades," said the Fool, "but I never was bound apprentice."
"It is the same with myself," said the Knave; "but you may have finer talents. Can you paint, or play the fiddle?"
"I never tried," said the Fool; "so I don't know."
"Just my case," said the Knave. "And now, since we can't find work, I propose that we travel till work finds us."
The two comrades accordingly set forth, and they went on and on, till they came to the foot of a hill, where a merchantman was standing by his wagon, which had broken down.
"You seem two strong men," said he, as they advanced; "if you will carry this chest of valuables up to the top of the hill, and down to the bottom on the other side, where there is an inn, I will give you two gold pieces for your trouble."
The Knave and the Fool consented to this, saying, "Work has found us at last;" and they lifted the box on to their shoulders.
"Turn, and turn about," said the Knave; "but the best turn between friends is a good turn; so I will lead the way up-hill, which is the hardest kind of travelling, and you shall go first down-hill, the easy half of our journey."
The Fool thought this proposal a very generous one, and, not knowing that the lower end of their burden was the heavy one, he carried it all the way. When they got to the inn, the merchant gave each of them a gold piece, and, as the accommodation was good, they remained where they were till their money was spent. After this, they lived there awhile on credit; and when that was exhausted, they rose one morning whilst the landlord was still in bed, and pursued their journey, leaving old scores behind them.
They had been a long time without work or food, when they came upon a man who sat by the roadside breaking stones, with a quart of porridge and a spoon in a tin pot beside him.
"You look hungry, friends," said he, "and I, for my part, want to get away. If you will break up this heap, you shall have the porridge for supper. But when you have eaten it, put the pot and spoon under the hedge, that I may find them when I return."
"If we eat first, we shall have strength for our work," said the Knave; "and as there is only one spoon, we must eat by turns. But fairly divide, friendly abide. As you went first the latter part of our journey, I will begin on this occasion. When I stop, you fall to, and eat as many spoonfuls as I ate. Then I will follow you in like fashion, and so on till the pot is empty."
"Nothing could be fairer," said the Fool; and the Knave began to eat, and went on till he had eaten a third of the porridge. The Fool, who had counted every spoonful, now took his turn, and ate precisely as much as his comrade. The Knave then began again, and was exact to a mouthful; but it emptied the pot. Thus the Knave had twice as much as the Fool, who could not see where he had been cheated.
They then set to work.
"As there is only one hammer," said the Knave, "we must work, as we supped, by turns; and as I began last time, you shall begin this. After you have worked awhile, I will take the hammer from you, and do as much myself whilst you rest. Then you shall take it up again, and so on till the heap is finished."
"It is not every one who is as just as you," said the Fool; and taking up the hammer, he set to work with a will.
The Knave took care to let him go on till he had broken a third of the stones, and then he did as good a share himself; after which the Fool began again, and finished the heap.
By this means the Fool did twice as much work as the Knave, and yet he could not complain.
As they moved on again, the Fool perceived that the Knave was taking the can and the spoon with him.
"I am sorry to see you do that, friend," said he.
"It's a very small theft," said the Knave. "The can cannot have cost more than sixpence when new."
"That was not what I meant," said the Fool, "so much as that I fear the owner will find it out."
"He will only think the things have been stolen by some vagrant," said the Knave—"which, indeed, they would be if we left them. But as you seem to have a tender conscience, I will keep them myself."
After a while they met with a farmer, who offered to give them supper and a night's lodging, if they would scare the birds from a field of corn for him till sunset.
"I will go into the outlying fields," said the Knave, "and as I see the birds coming, I will turn them back. You, dear friend, remain in the corn, and scare away the few that may escape me."
But whilst the Fool clapped and shouted till he was tired, the Knave went to the other side of the hedge, and lay down for a nap.
As they sat together at supper, the Fool said, "Dear friend, this is laborious work. I propose that we ask the farmer to let us tend sheep, instead. That is a very different affair. One lies on the hillside all day. The birds do not steal sheep; and all this shouting and clapping is saved."
The Knave very willingly agreed, and next morning the two friends drove a flock of sheep on to the downs. The sheep at once began to nibble, the dog sat with his tongue out, panting, and the Knave and Fool lay down on their backs, and covered their faces with their hats to shield them from the sun.
Thus they lay till evening, when, the sun being down, they uncovered their faces, and found that the sheep had all strayed away, and the dog after them.
"The only plan for us is to go separate ways in search of the flock," said the Knave; "only let us agree to meet here again." They accordingly started in opposite directions; but when the Fool was fairly off, the Knave returned to his place, and lay down as before.
By and by the dog brought the sheep back; so that, when the Fool returned, the Knave got the credit of having found them; for the dog scorned to explain his part in the matter.
As they sat together at supper, the Fool said, "The work is not so easy as I thought. Could we not find a better trade yet?"
"Can you beg?" said the Knave. "A beggar's trade is both easy and profitable. Nothing is required but walking and talking. Then one walks at his own pace, for there is no hurry, and no master, and the same tale does for every door. And, that all may be fair and equal, you shall beg at the front door, whilst I ask an alms at the back."
To this the Fool gladly agreed; and as he was as lean as a hunted cat, charitable people gave him a penny or two from time to time. Meanwhile, the Knave went round to the back yard, where he picked up a fowl, or turkey, or anything that he could lay his hands upon.
When he returned to the Fool, he would say, "See what has been given to me, whilst you have only got a few pence."
At last this made the Fool discontented, and he said, "I should like now to exchange with you. I will go to the back doors, and you to the front."
The Knave consented, and at the next house the Fool went to the back door; but the mistress of the farm only rated him, and sent him away. Meanwhile, the Knave, from the front, had watched her leave the parlour, and slipping in through the window, he took a ham and a couple of new loaves from the table, and so made off.
When the friends met, the Fool was crestfallen at his ill luck, and the Knave complained that all the burden of their support fell upon him. "See," said he, "what they give me, where you get only a mouthful of abuse!" And he dined heartily on what he had stolen; but the Fool only had bits of the breadcrust, and the parings of the ham.
At the next place the Fool went to the front door as before, and the Knave secured a fat goose and some plums in the back yard, which he popped under his cloak. The Fool came away with empty hands, and the Knave scolded him, saying, "Do you suppose that I mean to share this fat goose with a lazy beggar like you? Go on, and find for yourself." With which he sat down and began to eat the plums, whilst the Fool walked on alone.
After a while, however, the Knave saw a stir in the direction of the farm they had left, and he quickly perceived that the loss of the goose was known, and that the farmer and his men were in pursuit of the thief. So, hastily picking up the goose, he overtook the Fool, and pressed it into his arms, saying, "Dear friend, pardon a passing ill humour, of which I sincerely repent. Are we not partners in good luck and ill? I was wrong, dear friend; and, in token of my penitence, the goose shall be yours alone. And here are a few plums with which you may refresh yourself by the wayside. As for me, I will hasten on to the next farm, and see if I can beg a bottle of wine to wash down the dinner, and drink to our good-fellowship." And before the Fool could thank him, the Knave was off like the wind.
By and by the farmer and his men came up, and found the Fool eating the plums, with the goose on the grass beside him.
They hurried him off to the justice, where his own story met with no credit. The woman of the next farm came up also, and recognized him for the man who had begged at her door the day she lost a ham and two new loaves. In vain he said that these things also had been given to his friend. The friend never appeared; and the poor Fool was whipped and put in the stocks.
Towards evening the Knave hurried up to the village green, where his friend sat doing penance for the theft.
"My dear friend," said he, "what do I see? Is such cruelty possible? But I hear that the justice is not above a bribe, and we must at any cost obtain your release. I am going at once to pawn my own boots and cloak, and everything about me that I can spare, and if you have anything to add, this is no time to hesitate."
The poor Fool begged his friend to draw off his boots, and to take his hat and coat as well, and to make all speed on his charitable errand.
The Knave, took all that he could get, and, leaving his friend sitting in the stocks in his shirt-sleeves, he disappeared as swiftly as one could wish a man to carry a reprieve.
For those good folks to whom everything must be explained in full, it may be added that the Knave did not come back, and that he kept the clothes.
It was very hard on the Fool; but what can one expect if he keeps company with a Knave?

Q: Laravel artisan optimize not creating bootstrap/compiled I used to have a bootstrap/compiled.php file. Then I accidentally deleted it, and because for some reason it was in .gitignore, I don't have another copy of it. How do I get it back?
I tried running compose dump-autoload and php artisan optimize, neither of these generated the file. Where does it come from? How do I produce it?

A: Laravel 4.1+ does not create bootstrap/compiled.php on development boxes anymore, only in 'production'.  Actually Laravel checks if debug mode is on if it is, it will not generate the compiled.php.
But you can:
php artisan optimize --force

To force its creation.

A: Switch debug mode to false in app/config/app.php and run your command again.

The Legacy of Documentarian Albert Maysles
Tags: Documentaries, Movie Directors
Along with his brother David, filmmaker Albert Maysles–who passed away last week at the age of 88–played a key role in the evolution of documentary cinema, their "Direct Cinema" style bridging the gap between such early pioneers as Robert Flaherty and John Grierson and the stylized contemporary works of Errol Morris and Michael Moore. Born in Boston in 1926, Maysles studied psychology at Syracuse and, after finishing his master's program, taught the subject for three years at Boston University before turning his attention to film.
Breaking into moviemaking with a silent 1955 short, Psychiatry in Russia, Albert then worked with "cinema verité "innovator Robert Drew on various projects, including the 1960 Democratic presidential campaign chronicle Primary, before establishing Maysles Films two years later with his younger sibling David. The brothers first gained notoriety when they filmed What's Happening! The Beatles in the U.S.A., which followed the Fab Four on their 1964 American tour and was later edited into 1990's The Beatles: The First U.S. Visit.
The following is a selection of other key works currently available on home video by Albert Maysles–both with David, who died from a stroke in 1987, and later projects he made solo and in collaboration with other documentarians:
Salesman (1968) — Who says you can't put a price on salvation? The Maysles Brothers' fascinating documentary follows four door-to-door Bible sellers–nicknamed "The Badger," "The Gipper," "The Rabbit" and "The Bull"–on their rounds across the Southeast and New England. From large cities and small towns, and at a Chicago "sales convention," each man's hard-sell campaign on his (mostly poor and working-class) clients is detailed. This Criterion Collection release includes audio commentary, an interview, and the theatrical trailer.
Gimme Shelter (1970) — Given access to record The Rolling Stones on their 1969 U.S. tour, the Maysles followed the band across the country in what was shaping up to be an interesting, if un-dramatic, chronicle of life on the road and the business side of rock and roll. That all changed with the tour's final show, the disastrous free concert at Altamont, Ca., show that saw the murder of a concertgoer by Hell's Angels "security guards." Along with stunning footage of the actual incident, Gimme Shelter offers Mick, Keith and company performing "Jumping Jack Flash," "Brown Sugar," "Satisfaction" and more, along with footage of guest acts Ike and Tina Turner, The Jefferson Airplane and The Flying Burrito Bros. This remastered, uncensored Criterion Collection edition includes previously unseen footage (with the songs "Little Queenie," "Prodigal Son" and more) and the 1990s re-release trailer. (Years later, Albert would make a special appearance in Martin Scorsese's 2008 Stones documentary, Shine a Light.)
Grey Gardens (1975) — Another Criterion release, the Maysles' landmark "direct cinema" portrait of Edith and Edie Bouvier Beale, a mother/daughter duo of former socialites–aunt and first cousin, respectively, of Jackie Kennedy Onassis–follows their idiosyncratic, reclusive existence in their decaying Long Island estate in the Hamptons. The common bonds that repel and attract the women form the basis for what was described as a "fugue of remembrance and recrimination." Believe it or not, Grey Gardens inspired a 2006 Broadway musical, as well as an Emmy-winning HBO drama starring Jessica Lange and Drew Barrymore, also titled Grey Gardens, two years later. This special edition features an audio commentary, interviews, a photo gallery and trailers.
The Beales of Grey Gardens (2006) — Comprised of unused footage from the 1975 documentary Grey Gardens, this "new" film returns to the dilapidated East Hamptons mansion for more odd encounters with the elderly "Big Edie" Bouvier Beale and "Little Edie," her fashion-conscious daughter. Living hauntingly far from the Camelot ideal, the feisty Kennedy family cousins are paid further tribute in this continuation of the Beales'–and the Maysles'–saga.
Muhammad and Larry (1980) — Late in 1980, Muhammad Ali came out of retirement and ventured to become heavyweight champion for a record fourth time against former sparring partner Larry Holmes. Albert Maysles chronicled the fight, its buildup, and both men's training camp from each fighter's perspective at the time. Paired with new reflective conversations when it was aired in 2009 as part of ESPN's 30 for 30 documentary series, the film thoughtfully examines the undoing and humbling of a legend, who was trying to convince the world and himself that he was still "the greatest."
LaLee's Kin: The Legacy of Cotton (2001) — The crushing cycle of poverty for the working poor of the Mississippi Delta is brought home by this Oscar-nominated chronicle, co-directed by Albert Maysles, Deborah Dickson and Susan Froemke. The struggles of the West Tallahatchie School System to elevate standards and find qualified teachers are paralleled with those of LaLee Watkins, matriarch of three generations of crop workers who've known no opportunity beyond picking cotton.
The Gates (2008) — In 1979, artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude proposed one of the largest public art projects in history: a "golden river" of 7,500 orange-fabric gates in Manhattan's Central Park. Then, for 26 years, they fought for the city's approval…until finally, in 2005, "The Gates" was installed over 23 miles of walkways. Maysles' captivating documentary reveals the intricate process behind their magnificent work and captures the sheer amazement of its many witnesses. This was the last of five films that Maysles made in collaboration with Christo, the first being 1974's Christo's Valley Curtain.


this is an art game version of that 3-emoji oc meme! each person posts 3 emojis they want their new chara to be based on, and the person below designs that oc! then, they post their own 3 emojis. there's also a generator version of this game, if you're into that!
you'll also have to specify if gore's okay. if you do make a gory oc, please pm the file/put it in a spoiler box!
user 1: 💄💉🎸 gore ok!
the charas can be made on bases, but no dressup games/generators! there isn't a deadline for the design, but it would be nice if they could be done asap/completed within a month.
the completed character must be at least a halfbody, preferably fullbody!
No gore or NSFW please!
I love making emoji characters, Finished + sent!!
NSFW and gore are both fine!
Ooh this looks like fun, claim!
gore is fine, no nsfw tho.
edit: that's so cute tsym!
Claim! No NSFW or gore please!
🦈😈🌌 No extreme gore, but moderately so and nsfw are ok.
No NSFW or gore unless it's unrealistic gore. (space gore, candy gore, pastel gore.) No guts or anything extreme for the gore!
hOly cRap he's so cute! Thank you!

While Marko's reflection on Clay's writing prompted me to go off on a tangent about privilege, Joi jumps in to ask are blogs just? and Clay offers a return. The foundational components of this question requires teasing out whether things are fair and/or just and what impact that has on the relevant social groups.
While Joi really unpacks the notion of justice, Clay retorts by pointing out that he's really focused on fairness. In his argument, though, he notes the economic (lack of) cost involved in blogs. This is what prompted my tangent, but perhaps i should return here. When something costs time and time is a precious commodity, is it truly fair (or equalizing)? Clay also argues that there is no vetting ("subject to expert appraisal or correct") process. Perhaps not officially, but public blogging is one of (counter)critique and, thus, there is a feeling of a power hierarchy that makes people feel the need to be properly appraised in order to participate. Finally, Clay notes that the threshold for having a blog is only slightly higher than the threshold for getting online. I wish that this was true. This is where issues of social pressure, time, literacy, confidence, etc. come into play. Consumption and production are fundamentally different and there are different forms of pressure when engaging with either. There is no way that one can possibly say that the threshold for consumption is equivalent to the threshold for production.
To a number of people (including Joi?) evidence of injustice, even in fair systems, calls for some sort of remedy. I can't imagine a system that would right the obvious but hard to quantify injustice of the weblog world that wouldn't also destroy its dynamism.
Does this mean that privilege should beget privilege because it makes for cool, dynamic technology? I, for one, would love to hear Clay/Joi discuss the relevance of power and privilege in this discussion.
danah boyd (love child of e.e. cummings and archie), Marko Ahtisaari and Stewart Butterfiled take apart my rationale for claims of fairness in the weblog world, taken from the powerlaws paper, and find two flaws I have to cop to….
What can we do to help blogs promote justice?
Is the world of blogging 'fair'? And if not what should be done?
Fairness in the blogging world is not just about cool, dynamic technology or about the time people have to spend online typing in their thoughts.
The sort of public blogging that people compete for attention in and form A-lists is at least as much about discretionary income for conspicuously consumable toys, travel budgets to see each other in lovely far-away places on a regular basis, and other trappings of the rock star lifestyle. When rock stars express their opinions, people listen.
When something costs money and money is a precious commodity, is it fair?

PPD Achieves Gold WELCOA Well Workplace Designation
WILMINGTON, N.C. (March 3, 2010) - PPD, Inc. (Nasdaq: PPDI) today announced it has achieved national Gold Well Workplace designation by Wellness Councils of America (WELCOA), becoming one of only two North Carolina companies honored in 2009 for its commitment to protecting and enhancing the health and well-being of its employees.
Well Workplace designation is a rigorous process, which measures companies against seven health-focused benchmarks, including CEO support, creating cohesive wellness teams, data collection to drive health efforts, crafting an operating plan, choosing appropriate interventions, creating a supportive environment and consistently evaluating outcomes.
"The health and well-being of our employees are essential to our success, and one way we continually invest in our employees is by providing a cutting-edge wellness program," said Ed Murray, senior vice president of human resources. "We are pleased WELCOA has recognized our accomplishments, which we believe are an integral part of the culture necessary to recruit, develop and retain the brightest talent for PPD."
PPD's health and wellness campaigns include creative, engaging programs like Hoofin' Through the Holidays, a healthy holiday program, Biggest Loser, World No Tobacco Day and Kick Off Your Tailgate With Fruits and Vegetables, all designed to educate and empower employees to make healthy lifestyle choices.
"PPD has demonstrated its commitment to becoming one of America's healthiest companies, and WELCOA is pleased to recognize its excellence in workplace wellness programs with a gold designation," said David Hunnicutt, Ph.D., president of WELCOA.
Except for historical information, all of the statements, expectations and assumptions contained in this news release, including expectations and assumptions about the spin-off and its anticipated benefits for PPD and Furiex Pharmaceuticals, are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Although PPD and Furiex attempt to be accurate in making these forward-looking statements, it is possible that future circumstances might differ from the assumptions on which such statements are based. In addition, other important factors which could cause results to differ materially include the following: Furiex's lack of history as, and challenges operating as, an independent public company; anticipated losses and the potential need for Furiex to raise additional capital; its reliance on a limited number of products and product candidates; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; risks associated with the development and commercialization of drugs, including the ability to successfully launch and market a drug; the risk that safety issues might arise in the post-approval market; reliance on collaborators; competition in the market; rapid technological advances that make our products less competitive; and the other risk factors set forth from time to time in the Furiex Form 10 and other SEC filings, and in the SEC filings for PPD, copies of which are available free of charge upon request from the PPD investor relations department.
