Lomax
Lomax Spaulding was born in a small town in Georgia. He began playing the guitar, the piano, and singing at a very young age. Lomax's first exposure to public performance began in the Church. A deeply spiritual person, Lomax believes that his talent is a gift from God.

It was in 2004, after a great deal of prayer, Lomax returned to his Gospel roots. The completion of his Gospel project led to a reawakening of his spiritual self and rejuvenated his musical creativity. Lomax's gospel project led to performing for the National Congress of Black Women, Inc. (NCBW). He performed for the group on several occasions and was invited to participate as a musical guest for the unveiling of the bust of Sojourner Truth in Washington DC at the US Capital Visitors' Center. He was blessed with the honor of meeting and speaking with First Lady, Mrs. Michelle Obama.

Hello from the 2017-8 OUMSSA committee! We've just wrapped up Hilary Term, and plenty has happened in the past eight weeks!
We celebrated Chinese New Year with a delectable feast at My Sichuan Restaurant in Gloucester Green, which was packed to the brim with over 100 OUMSSA members and their guests. It was a great chance for everyone to catch up and usher in the New Year with authentic dishes like garlic prawns and the very well-received fried mantou with condensed milk! To add icing to the cake, everyone walked away with a jar of Yeo's laksa paste, which we're sure will be used in many dishes we cook in the months to come.
A few weeks later, we also held our Annual General Meeting at Jesus College on 11 February, in which the 2016-7 committee looked back on a year's worth of great work, and ushered in the 2017-8 committee after an exciting round of elections.
We then wrapped up Hilary Term with two OUMSSA hangouts -- a session of Friday night badminton at the end of 7th week, followed by a chilled-out board games session in 8th week for the less sporting-inclined.
Thank you to everyone to showed up for the events! The new committee hopes to carry on with the great work of our predecessors, and always look for ways to better serve the needs of our members! Stay tuned for more updates, and do check out our Facebook page for timely updates and event photos!


CodeDroids has a very strong background in programming. We have experience with the development of complex, database-driven information technology systems.
In todays world the solutions are often a mix of web technologies, client/server- and database-driven applications . But even the newest technologies is not of much use if they are applied without solving the actual problem.
Too often software projects gets derailed. There can be many causes, but often they fail to address the requirements that they were supposed to fulfil. Again, there can be a number of reasons for that. One reason is that the requirements change during the course of a long project. And that happens even when a lot of effort has been put into planning ahead. Recognising this fact from the outset of the project can help making the project succeed.
Our approach to software development is based on experience, common sense, advanced methodologies and last, but not least the ability to listen to what you have to say. Your expertise combined with our knowledge is the foundation for success!
Common sense does not seems as something revolutionary in an industry where the tech-talk and three letter acronyms are available in an abundance. But that is exactly why it is important.
AtCodeDroids we don't believe that there is one methodology that fits all needs. We adapt the disciplines to the project in question - not all projects requires a thousand pages of documentation. We do primarily use eXtreme Programming (XP) as our guideline when developing. We like XP because it is rooted in the real world as opposed to some of the more structure, rigid theoretical methodologies.
Taking the imperfections of the real world into consideration, planning for changes and so on, greatly improves on the odds for a given project to become a success..
Beside choosing the right approach for the development process, we also spend time on evaluating various development tools to find the most suitable for the task at hand.


• There is no electricity for most of this hike.
• The Colocolmayo hotsprings are nice and relaxing. They are about 1 hour away from your lodging on night 3. If you should decide to go on this night, talk with your guide about how to get there and how much it will cost. You will need to pay for transport and entrance or ask for it to be included in the price.
• Horses are included with 4-5 trekkers for carrying gear. If you have less than 4 trekkers you can pay the fee to include them. It is $100 pp and will include horses on day 2 for carrying gear and one for emergencies up to the 15,000ft pass. It will also include having your belongings sent ahead to each site so that you only carry a day pack.

That's a quote from my favorite book The Bell Jar, which I wouldn't mind reading if stranded on a desert island (or in a hotel room, which you can read more about in my Oiselle profile).
Well, I got in to see my doctor today and HE SAYS I CAN RUN!!!
…to this, less than a week later!
I'm so happy/ nervous/ excited that this weekend is happening. A week ago I was hopeful but not entirely sure my lungs would be able to take me 26.2 miles. However, my worries have now turned to carbo-loading and race day nail art. I'm thinking midnight blue with a bright green bird on one nail to match my uniform. Obviously this is extremely important.
I am also trying to figure out which tattoos to put where. I'm considering putting at least one Believe I Am tattoo on the inside of my lower arm so I can have a visual cue during the race. I'm thinking Courage, one of my favorite Ninja Stars. And, of course, I'll have my shoulders tatted up with Oiselle (sorry they don't have tattoos available for purchase, but there are lots of other goodies for sale).
What a crazy year this has been. I'm glad I have it all documented in my training journal. Got my tattoos ready for this weekend and a brand new Believe I Am journal ready to go!
So far so good with the injury prevention deal (if you want to read my first Sisters In Sport post, here it is). My mileage has been pretty low for this marathon buildup (I've averaged 38.8 miles for the past 7 weeks) so I was able to avoid some typical pitfalls. I think the key for me will be to take it easy the week after the marathon and get in at least one good yoga session. Last fall when I raced my first marathon I felt so good that I just jumped back into training, which led to a case of Achilles tendinitis. That shiz hurt, and I'd like to avoid it and any other injuries if I can.
One last thought: I'm 90% sure that I will be wearing a watch for the race. The 5k went really well without a watch, but the marathon is a totally different beast. Before Thanksgiving I wasn't sure if I would be able to actually race, and if it turned into more of a long run I figured it would be fun to skip the watch. But… since I'm feeling better I should be able to push myself to a decent time, and so it's important that I keep myself under control in the first half (hence the need for a timing device). I hope I have some good news to share on Sunday! Peace out for now, friends.
Any thoughts on race day nails? How's your holiday shopping going? Any carbo-loading tips or marathon racing tips you'd like to share?
← how to fake it.
I spent most of yesterday connected to my computer, trying to do some Cyber Monday shopping. And then I realized that i had forgotten to change my address on the Amazon account, so the majority of that stuff is going to my previous home in California. Woops!
As far as carbo-loading, just make sure to start 3 days before, not the day before. I made that mistake for my first couple of marathons. Stay off your feet as much as possible, and take it easy. Especially since you are getting over pneumonia!!
I hope you have a great race. Do you have a time goal in mind?
Oh my gosh, I totally did that after we got married. I had to go to our old house to pick up some Christmas packages (but it wasn't too far away). I have heard that about carbo loading so I'll have to actually do it. Thanks for the reminder! Goal time: somewhere between 3:00 and 3:15 I would be happy, but anything under 3:35 is ok!
mollie! i'll be thinking of you this weekend. i looked at the "course map" online and laughed- how awesome is a marathon that shows a sketched drawing like that, has no online registration and costs $45!
the roads are beautiful, and i know you'll do great, if you keep the low-pressure outlook. i think the watch is a good idea, though, because it's pretty remote out there and i doubt there will be splits on big neon timers at each mile!
I haven't had Christian's, just Mellow Mushroom. Will have to try it! The course is ridiculous, the whole thing is ridiculous. I think it's going to be like 1975. The shuttle will prob be a VW bus!

Crowdsourced delivery is rapidly becoming the go to trend utilized by businesses to expand their outreach and optimize performance. With consumers increasingly concerned with delivery speeds, especially as ecommerce continues to transform the landscape of retail, it becomes necessary that businesses evolve to meet the ever increasing needs of their consumers. The primary of which is fast, efficient and trusted delivery options.
Tapping into these global trends is Ahmad Ramahi, Co-founder and CEO of weDeliver. As an avid entrepreneur, Ahmad is always working on developing innovative ways to realize the potential of growing trends dominating the MENA region. With extensive experience in the startup ecosystem which includes the founding of successful Palestinian based startups including, Digital360, SocialStudio and ConceptsTech, as well as corporate experience working with leading telecom operators and lastly with Careem as Operations Manager, Ahmad has become a prominent entrepreneur in the Palestinian startup scene.
Along with CEO and Co-founder Ahmad Ramahi, the weDeliver team consists of Co-founder and CTO, Sami Ghawi who comes from a pure technical background with experience in managing product teams and Artificial Intelligence. The weDeliver team is also made up of an extensive team of drivers delivering packages throughout the country.
weDeliver offers a scalable and sustainable alternative for small businesses and e-commerce platforms that need an efficient and affordable method of delivery. Rather than purchase delivery vehicles and employ drivers, which can be beyond the means of many smaller to medium sized businesses, weDeliver allows these businesses to easily download the dedicated app and simply request a driver to deliver an item or parcel anywhere at any time. In order to increase the utility of the app, weDeliver also offers all parties in the delivery process real-time tracking updates, needed to keep up with the status and location of items.
"weDeliver is transforming how door-to-door delivery works, our ultimate goal is to disrupt the logistics industry in the region!" says Ahmad Ramahi, CEO of weDeliver.
The appeal of weDeliver, is the use of crowdsourcing to realize the potential of hundreds of drivers. Prior to becoming a part of the weDeliver team, drivers must successfully pass through a background check and training session to then have the opportunity to work anytime, either fulltime, part-time, or just on daily trips. Drivers will not only receive the technical training needed to use the app but the professional training needed to interact with recipients of items. These measures not only enhance operations, but ensures local businesses that weDeliver has their security taken care of.
In terms of cargo space, weDeliver, maximizes the utility of unused cargo space in vehicles hitting the road. weDeliver also understands that most business in Palestine prefer cash on delivery, they therefore have implemented an effective solution that allows weDeliver drivers to securely facilitate financial transactions between recipients and businesses.
"Business with items they need delivered anywhere can simply connect with a driver through the weDeliver app, and the driver headed in that direction can easily deliver the requested item" explains Ahmad.
In order to spread the word, weDeliver opts for a hybrid marketing model, including social media, email marketing and digital campaigns, as well as making direct sales with local businesses.
Not only is weDeliver launching in Palestine, in the first quarter (Q1) of this year, they will begin operations in Jordan. In terms of funding, Ahmad explains "we secured a good investment at very early stage but we are always looking for new investment opportunities to support our expansion plans into new markets and continue adding features to the platform". weDeliver believes in the potential of strategic partnerships, therefore, in order to successfully expand to different countries throughout the MENA region faster, local partners are their key-step needed to open doors and learn about new markets. Ahmad maintains that within the next five years, he aims to make weDeliver a trusted and reliable delivery solution for all business sizes in countries across the MENA region.


In order to get the mind working to its fullest capacity, it's essential that we ward off boredom with an occasional change of scenery.That's what conferences are for – in order for us to discuss things and take on board new information, getting out of the office and into a luxury hotel in the country can be exactly what's required.
If you're considering where to place the annual conference for your business, then you'll want to consider a well-equipped conference venue in Cheshire, Carden Park; not only does it come with ample facilities to host the conference itself and accommodate everyone who'll be attending, but – in collaboration with Cheshire-based events specialists The Event Station, they're able to put on a host of team-building exercises that'll break up the conference, and help your workforce to refresh their minds throughout their stay in one of the foremost hotels in Cheshire!
In this article, let's take a look at just a few of the events that you might consider putting on during your conference.
Duck herding is an activity that you might not be familiar with – but it's one that's guaranteed to produce laughs.Participants will be equipped with a crook, a collie, and a little bit of instruction, and then left to herd a gaggle of ducks around an obstacle course.For those of you with a competitive nature, this activity can really help to bring it to the fore!
If you've ever wanted to handle an enormous owl or golden eagle, then this is a chance to do so.Professional falconers will come to visit and deliver a running commentary as you're shown exactly how to handle the gauntlet and the birds that'll sit on it.It's an excellent opportunity for a photo!
Building a bridge is a classic means of building a team – and that's why it's become something of a cliché.But this bridge building exercise offers something a little different – rather than building a single bridge between you, your team will be split into several smaller groups, each of which will be tasked with building an individual section of the bridge.Since everyone will want to avoid embarrassment when the bridge is finally put to the test, they'll be under even greater pressure to perform!
Carden Park offers an extensive grounds, home to two golf courses and ample woodland to get lost in.It's a perfect venue for a treasure hunt, where teams will be expected to track down their tasks using a map, perform them, and then ultimately track down the treasure.The tasks along the way will tax you both physically and mentally – so you'll need a well-rounded team that's willing to work together!
If you're looking for something a little different to a traditional bridge-building exercise, then a trebuchet-building one might be just what's called for.You'll be using a set of instructions to build the famous medieval siege-engine from a set of parts, before using it to fling water balloons at a distant target.Naturally, the team whose finished trebuchet hits the most targets will be declared the winner!
If you're looking for a spot of football with a twist, then you'll want to check out bubble football – where players are wrapped in enormous air-filled bubbles, and expected to charge into one another in order to gain control of the ball.It's physically taxing – mainly because it's difficult to run around when you're laughing so much.Since you're shielded, you'll be able to barge one another over as much as you like – and staying upright without the use of your arms might prove tricky!
If you've got a sweet tooth, then this chocolatey exercise might be exactly what you're looking for.It'll see you and your team learn how to make your own box of chocolates.You'll need to design and make them from the ingredients you're provided with – and at the end you'll have the task of eating them, too.This is an activity where you'll learn a valuable skill – and you'll perhaps learn to appreciate that good chocolate takes hard work!
If you've ever wanted to put on your own stage production, then you'll be interested in this activity – which will allow you to do exactly that.You'll be able to stage a pantomime incorporating all of the essential elements – including outrageous costumes, scenarios, slapstick humour and audience participation.Your production will be fuelled by a selection of props, make-up and comical sound bytes that your office will be talking about long after the event is done with.

Jaguar Land Rover grapples with growing demand, tighter supplies
http://www.autonews.com/article/201...grapples-with-growing-demand-tighter-supplies
JLR's Mark White: "It's a nice problem to have -- making more cars than you can actually get through the paint shop."
After a year of record global sales of 425,000 vehicles in 2013 and a 14 percent increase in the first half of 2014, Jaguar Land Rover is facing a problem it has not seen in decades: Demand is far outstripping supply on some models.
Range Rover and Range Rover Sport, for example, have a six-month backlog of orders in some markets.
Mark White, JLR's chief technologist for the company's body engineering, spoke with Staff Reporter Richard Truett at the seminars.
Has JLR figured out how to boost production of Range Rovers at the Solihull plant in England?
We've now got two basically identical body shops to make Range Rover and Range Rover Sport and the long wheelbase version of the Range Rover. We can put additional models into there but we are constrained by things like the paint shop. We can only paint so many cars in the Solihull paint shop.
We will probably max out the paint shop before we max out the body shop. Putting the second body shop in has given us the flexibility to ebb and flow the different models that go through there and meet the capacity demands we've got. However, you always hit a bottleneck somewhere. And the paint shop is probably going to be the next biggest obstacle.
Does the situation require investment in a bigger paint shop?
We are always looking at all the efficiencies. I think those things are for the future. We are about to launch the Jaguar XE in Solihull. And that will only add to the problem. It's a nice problem to have, making more cars than you can actually get through the paint shop. We're looking at how we deal with that. We have the Halewood plant and the Castle Bromwhich plant, so we can look at where we build what and try to balance that out.
The new Ingenium engines coming late this year are lightweight, with some weighing 176 pounds less than the engines they replace. Why is JLR focusing so much on weight reduction?
It's part of our long-term strategy. Clearly, saving weight on the body is a great thing to do. But really we need to save weight on the whole vehicle, and that includes the powertrain. We now look at where we can save weight on every new vehicle we do, whether it is the powertrain or the chassis. Electrical is probably the only area where we are not going to save weight because of the growth of the systems.
As Ford gets close to launching the aluminum-bodied F-150, do you have any advice?
It wasn't that long ago when we used to share things. They have seen where the pitfalls are. I think the F-150 truck will come out of the blocks absolutely sorted and be a huge success.
Good Q&A, and like original stated it is a good problem that they're having.
I also feel that people who like Jaguar are the type to stay loyal to it, so even with delays I think people are still willing to wait to see what it's like even if they may not end up buying it in the end, instead going for another vehicle.

Using the sub-milli-arcsecond resolution of the CHARA interferometer array and combining light with the 2-telescope combiner CHARA Classic, we have detected strong near-infrared (NIR) emission interior to the dust-sublimation radius of Herbig Ae stars MWC275 and AB Aur. The large contribution of this emission component, which we argue to be hot gas, to the total NIR spectral energy distribution (SED) is not predicted by current models of the dust evaporation front, indicating that the NIR disk is more complicated than expected. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the structure of the evaporation front in MWC275 is time variable, making single epoch, large uv coverage observations critical to decoding front geometry. With the commissioning of CHARA Michigan Phase Tracker in the summer of 2008, the Michigan Infrared Combiner (a 6 telescope combiner at CHARA) will become an ideal instrument for studying the evaporation front, achieving the required sensitivities to begin the first "true" interferometric imaging of the gas-dust transition region in young stellar objects (YSOs). Here, we summarize results on the evaporation front structure obtained with CHARA Classic and describe future prospects with CHARA MIRC in elucidating morphology of the gas-dust transition region.

Mario Hernandez (born 1953 in Oxnard, California) is an American writer, artist, and sometime publisher of comics. He is one of the Hernandez brothers, along with his younger brothers Gilbert and Jaime, with whom he co-created the acclaimed independent comic book Love and Rockets.

Biography
As children, Mario (the eldest of six children) and his siblings were voracious comic readers, a habit encouraged by their mother, who had loved comics during her own childhood. Eventually, their enthusiasm for the medium led the youngsters to begin writing and drawing comics themselves for fun, collaborating with one another and sharing their own individual creations. As they grew older, Mario discovered girls and mostly abandoned his drawing hobby, but Jaime and Gilbert remained committed and prolific, accumulating hundreds of pages of increasingly sophisticated and personal work. Eventually, Mario noticed what his brothers had been up to and was so impressed by their comics that he encouraged them to try to get published. In 1982 Mario instigated and self-published a black and white comic book of his and his brothers' work, the original version of Love and Rockets No. 1. It was sold at that year's San Diego Comicon and by mail order, and advertised in comics fanzines. A copy of the issue was submitted to The Comics Journal for review, the brothers reasoning that if they could endure the Journals notoriously harsh criticism, they were ready for anything. To their surprise, they received not only a positive review, but an offer from the Journals publisher Fantagraphics to publish their work. The brothers agreed, and Fantagraphics published a slightly revised reprint version of the self-published issue, featuring a new full-color cover, as the first issue of an ongoing Love and Rockets series. The title quickly found a cult audience and became a key title in the 1980s independent comics movement, developing into a highly influential early example of what came to be known as "alternative" or "art" comics.

Around 1984, all three brothers were hired by Toronto-based publisher Vortex Comics to collaborate on a new series, Mister X. This project was based upon a character created by artist Dean Motter, and had already been in development for some time when the Hernandez brothers became involved; the book had been heavily publicized in the comics press as a forthcoming title slated to be drawn by Paul Rivoche, who completed a substantial amount of conceptual design artwork but ultimately did not contribute any actual comics pages to the project as published. The first issues of Mister X were co-written by Gilbert and Mario based on Dean Motter's story and drawn by Jaime, but the brothers left the title after four issues over alleged nonpayment for their work, refocusing their efforts back onto Love and Rockets.

As the series continued, Mario's own comics contributions to the title became increasingly sporadic; he was a father by this time and family responsibilities left little time for his artwork. Jaime and Gilbert's work dominated Love and Rockets from the beginning both in volume and acclaim; in his own estimation Mario's work falls short of what he describes as his brothers' "genius." Eventually, Mario all but completely stopped contributing to the comic, usually writing and drawing a short story every few years for anniversary issues. In the early 1990s, Fantagraphics published Mario's one-shot comic Brain Capers, featuring non-Love and Rockets work. As of 2007, Mario's most recent contribution to Love and Rockets was "Me for the Unknown," a serial written by Mario and drawn by Gilbert. In 2009, Mario and Gilbert collaborated on a mini-series called Citizen Rex.

In 2012, Hernandez was awarded the Inkpot Award.

Jane Sanders, wife of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), is accusing Brady Toensing, the man responsible for the FBI probe into bank-fraud allegations against her, of triggering the investigation out of sexism.
"I find it incredibly sexist that basically he's going after my husband by destroying my reputation, and that's not OK," Jane Sanders told the Boston Globe.
The FBI is investigating allegations that Jane Sanders fraudulently obtained a loan for the now defunct Burlington College. She was president of the school from 2004 to 2011. The college closed down in 2016 after it was unable to pay off its debt and lost its accreditation.
The FBI probe began in early 2016 after it received a complaint about possible bank fraud. The complaint was filed by Toensing, a former official for Donald Trump's presidential campaign. Toensing has been investigating Jane Sanders' tenure at Burlington College since 2014. Toensing's complaint claims that she had purposely misled a bank in order to secure a loan to purchase new land for the college.
"Ms. Sanders's privileged status as the wife of a powerful United States senator seems to have inoculated her from the robust underwriting that would have uncovered the apparent fraudulent donation claims she made," his complaint said.
Toensing began his own investigation into her activities at Burlington College in 2014, before her husband ran for president. Now Toensing is considered to be a top candidate for U.S. attorney for the state and could end up leading the investigation into Jane Sanders.
She has pushed back against Toensing's accusations.
"If they just looked into public documents, they could see that his allegations of the financial difficulty during my tenure are not true at all," Jane Sanders said.

Oolite Arts residency cultivates encouragement, experimentation at Anderson Ranch
Aspen Times / Snowmass Sun
Around this time every year at Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Snowmass Village, something of a phenomenon manifests among a cohort of 14 resident artists visiting from the Miami-Dade area.
Whatever it is each of them came here to do at the beginning of February as part of the five-week Oolite Arts "Home and Away" residency program, it's almost inevitable that their trajectory has changed by the time March rolls around.
"I had one idea when I came here, and I find myself doing something completely different," said Victoria Ravelo, who is based in the ceramics studio through the end of the residency on March 9.

Sniffer Dogs: Providing a Factual Basis for Suspicion
30/09/2013 by Ugur Nedim
In order for police to legally search a person, premises or vehicle for drugs, they need to have a 'reasonable suspicion' that an illegal substance has been concealed. If police don't have a factual basis for suspicion and they search a person, they will have acted illegally, and that person may be able to have any resulting charges withdrawn.
The Police Powers (Drug Detection Dogs) Act came into being in 2006, and allows police to perform searches on people, without a warrant, if a drug detection dog identifies them. The logic behind this is that identification by a drug sniffer dog creates a reasonable basis for suspicion, which then justifies searching the person.
Where are sniffer dogs used?
Sniffer dogs can be legally used in a number of different public places, including on public transport, at sports gatherings and at music festivals. They can also be used in pubs, clubs and entertainment venues where alcohol is served. In Sydney, police are allowed to use sniffer dogs in and around the area of Kings Cross.
How accurate are drug detection dogs?
The validity of drug detection dogs as a basis for reasonable suspicion has been called into question by a number of different organisations, including the NSW Ombudsman. There are a number of arguments that have been used to counteract the idea that drug detection dogs can provide a factual basis for suspicion, and give police a reasonable justification to search members of the public for drugs.
Accuracy was one of the main issues raised by the NSW Ombudsman in a report into the use of drug detection dogs. This report looked at the effectiveness of using drug detection dogs for crime detection and prevention, and revealed that only one in five positive drug identifications were in fact people carrying drugs.
Of these positive identifications, the NSW Ombudsman found that they were mostly young people using small amounts of cannabis for recreational use. The drug detection dogs had little or no impact on helping detect and prevent serious drug crimes, such as trafficking or dealing.
The NSW Council of Civil Liberties said that as the drug detection dog scheme currently stands, certain areas of Sydney, particularly the inner city and inner west, are unfairly targeted. With the extreme concentration of drug detection dogs in and around Kings Cross, for example, local residents have made complaints to say that police unfairly target certain areas, including public transport. Residents have also complained in the Newtown and Marrickville areas.
What should I do if I am searched after identification by a drug detection dog?
If a drug detection dog gives you a positive identification, you should comply with the search. If drugs are found, just give police your essential details, and speak to a criminal defence lawyer as soon as possible. It is a good idea to avoid answering any questions or giving any further information until you have had professional legal advice from a good lawyer.
You could end up saying something inaccurate while under stress, which could damage your defence later on. If you believe that police have used a drug detection dog outside the legal boundaries, you can complain to the NSW Ombudsman or the Council of Civil Liberties, or speak to a defence lawyer who will advise you what to do.

Private Copying in Croatia
Daniel Antal
2019-10-31 2 min read
Project Project
After much delay, the first measurement of licensed use of music, audiovisual content, home copying and value transfer to media platforms in Croatia for a practical update of the private copying remuneration in the country.
You can find the whole study in English, a Croatian language summary and a press release in the Publications section.
The models presented are simplified models of the Hungarian and Slovak models, with less detailed data. However, they show clearly that in less developed markets, compensation for unlicensed use remains a key issue. Only a very small fraction of households pay for music and film, and creators, performers, film writers are massively undercompensated in the Croatia, Bulgaria, Romania, Poland or the Baltic states of the EU.
My study, Private Copying in Croatia, argues that the cultural and welfare benefits of this private copying regime are enormous and important to create a good quality of life in Croatia for all age groups, but especially for young people, and it must be maintained. Furthermore, it is very advantageous for the tech sector, because their products are mainly used with unlicensed music and film copies, given that only a very small portion of the population pays for downloads, or subscribes to services like Spotify, Deezer or Netflix.
Even for those who are not interested in royalties, the first 3 chapters offer a very interesting introduction on how people listen to music, how musicians make music and how people copy it in the 21st century.
This project was a continuation of the mapping of the Croatian music sector. I have created more detailed valuation and use studies of private copying and YouTube in Hungary (2015, 2017, 2018, 2019) and currently preparing similar studies in other countries, including Slovakia, as a continuation of the work started with the Slovak Music Industry Report and generally my home copying work started in 2012 with Value added by music in public performance and home copying: economic theory and empirical applications for tariff setting.

Home Car Culture Video of the Day: Top-10 quickest muscle cars of 1970
Video of the Day: Top-10 quickest muscle cars of 1970
Published reports from auto magazines during that model year were used to determine which had the best quarter-mile times
By Bob Golfen
The Video of the Day poses the question: What were the quickest muscle cars of 1970?
V8TV Productions answers that in a Muscle Car of the Week video by examining test-drive reports and drag strip times reported by leading automotive publications at the time. From them, the top-10 fastest quarter milers were chosen for the video.
The magazines, such as Car Craft, Motor Trend and Super Stock, were able to put automakers' latest high-performance cars through their paces with professionally timed quarter-mile runs. Although as video narrator Kevin Oeste points out, the testing was done with factory-spec cars tuned for the showroom and standing on period bias-ply street tires.
The video includes recently filmed segments showing similar examples of the tested cars in action, with the representative muscle cars borrowed from the Brothers Collection.
Oeste also notes that the video does not look as much at the quickest cars as it does the quickest recorded quarter-mile times published by the magazines; for instance, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 LS6 examples appear three times on the list of top 10 magazine test results. One of those tested Chevelles recorded the fastest trap speed.
The video counts down the quickest muscle cars from 10, so you'll need to watch to find out which car established itself as "king of the hill" (hint – not really surprising).

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve.
By tradition I should be thinking about all the ways I could instantly become a better person the day after tomorrow and thereby change my entire life for Earth's next circuit of the Sun.
In case I'd forgotten it was my duty to mark the planet's progress by becoming a better person, Amazon just sent me an email with numerous suggestions for self-improvement books.
I've had New Year's resolutions before. In fact, I've recycled quite a few from one year to the next, or even from one decade to the next.
This coming New Year, I am resolved that I will not have a resolution.
Yes, you read it right here. I am not going to become a better person for 2016.
I'm going into the next circuit of the Sun with all the same faults, foibles and failings as I've had all through the previous one.
Oh I know, there's lots of ways I could improve. I also know that if I were seriously going to work on them, I could start any time, not just save it all up for one day of the year.
So what am I going to do in 2016? The same as I did in 2015. I'm going to make the most of good days, while trying not to over-do it, and I'm going to take a rest and care for myself as best I can on the bad days. I'm going to thoroughly enjoy having my family and my animals around me. I'm going to take my medication, do my blood tests and see my doctors. I'm going to keep in contact with friends through Facebook and wish I had the energy to go and see them face to face.
In short, I'm going to live the life I have, and not beat myself up over my imperfections.
I hope and pray that 2016 will be a good year for all my readers, whether or not you're planning to become a better person.
When I was a teenager, I would watch my mother on Christmas Day, spending hours in the kitchen to produce a hot roast meal. She would sit at the end of the table in the summer heat, pouring sweat after hours in the kitchen, and I would say to myself, "I am never, ever, going to put myself through that."
When I was first married, I went to the opposite extreme. Christmas lunch was cold ham, and cold vegetables (even canned vegetables), and for the very first year I even used disposable plates so I wasn't caught in the kitchen doing dishes either. I had done baking beforehand and did have home-made cake, pudding and other treats. I just wasn't spending Christmas Day in the kitchen.
Over the years, as the kids arrived and grew, I found myself spending more and more time in the kitchen for Christmas. Anything that could be baked in advance, I still did in the days and weeks leading up to Christmas. But it was still a heavy day of work. (Especially as, in ministry, I often had at least two Christmas Day worship services to lead first thing in the morning.) Somewhere along the way we began to start Christmas with a cooked breakfast as well, so I would cook breakfast for the family, then rush out to do the services and then come back to cook lunch.
I've toned things down quite a bit since I first got sick. For a couple of years the kids and I had Christmas with a friend of mine. It was much simpler than I'd been used to - and honestly, I think we all enjoyed ourselves more.
For years now, I've been paring things back, simplifying, so that I didn't work myself into having a lupus flare.
I hope and pray all you lovely lupies out there have a wonderful, peaceful, Christmas, full of love and joy, and without pain.
It's hard to ask for help.
I like to think I will eventually get to that whatever it is I hope to do. Unfortunately, incomplete projects are building up and building up all over the house and yard, and in my computer memory.
When we first moved here, my son had been taking time out from study, reassessing what he wanted to do. He went with me to buy my mobility scooter, and he is the person who assembles it, and pulls it apart, to put it in and out of the car. He brings the scooter battery in from the car to charge it up for me. He goes with me to doctors' appointments and remembers what things I have to do to follow-up when my brain fog's at its worst. He makes sure I take my tablets on time.
Sometimes I worry that it would be better for him to be studying or working, doing "normal" things for a young man, instead of spending all his time with his Mum. But, at least for now, he's happy for helping me to be his "job".
Strangers in the shopping centre have told him how much they respect the work he does when he helps me out in the shops. It may not been a career he would have chosen, but for now it's what he does, and he does it well.
I still potter around and do what I can, but anything that requires lifting or stretching, or anything I'm just too fatigued for, he takes over.
To top that off, we also applied for help from the state government's community care services. I've been approved for one and a half hours per fortnight for help around the house. That means we have someone come in and do the vacuuming and cleaning the bathroom and kitchen. After the state government subsidy, I pay $5 per hour for that extra help.
Because my daughter and her partner live upstairs, I was assessed as not needing help with the yard, because there are other able-bodied adults who could do the work. If they weren't there, more help could have been provided for yard work as well.
There's a basic lesson here.
Managing with lupus can be hard. It can be challenging, and just trying to do everyday things can be overwhelming. But you don't have to assume you have to do everything alone.
It's worth investigating what help is available in your area. If you don't know where else to start looking, ask your GP what she (or he) can suggest.
Remember, you may not get approved for everything, but you won't get approved for anything if you never apply. Ask, and you might just get the help you need.
Yes, these really are my taekwondo medals.
There was a time, before I was diagnosed, when I had enough stamina for an hour and a half training session.
There was a time, before steroids, when I didn't weigh twice my healthy weight.
There was a time, when cooking a meal didn't leave me exhausted.
There was a time when my shoulders (and hips) were right and left, not good and bad.
There was a time when I could not only work full time, but also be involved in sporting and community activities after work.
There was a time when I could drive for hours on end, without needing rest breaks.
There was a time when I could go shopping without ending up exhausted and in agony.
There was a time when I could deal with hot days without starting out completely exhausted.
There was a time when I could deal with cold days without all of my joints being in absolute agony.
There was a time when I donated blood, and didn't just have it constantly taken for tests.
Um sorry. I think this was meant to go somewhere, but brain fog.
I had my blood tests today. It's a normal thing I do quite regularly.
I do it so often, I know which is my best vein.
It took the phlebotomist a while to find the vein - the good vein.
I looked where she was working, and realised, I can actually see some little pinprick scars from previous needles.
According to the phlebotomist, my "good" vein isn't really very good at all any more.
I still have nightmares about all the years I used to give blood, before anyone worked out that there were better veins in my dominant arm. It was awful, taking three or four goes and a couple of changes of blood taker before the blood flow actually started, and then often it would stop flowing before the bag was full.
So here we go lupies, give me advice.
How do I get my veins to be more accessible?
Do I drink a couple of litres of water before the test?
Do I put hot or cold packs on my arm before the test?
How do you get big, strong, full veins for tests?


Educated guess based on the first three figures being larger sized characters.
Not a question of following through but a question of getting licensor approval, which they don't seem to have for anything yet, and keeping the license. Do we know for sure they have the license? NECA apparently didn't have it.
Well I hope your guess is right because Swamp Thing would be awesome.
Well MK is WB now so I dont think they will have too much of a problem keeping the DC license too. They have the license for Injustice 1 and 2, Hokuto no Ken, Street Fighter V, Ultra Street Fighter 2 the final challengers, Tekken 7, Mortal Kombat, World Heroes Perfect, The King of fighters 98, Samurai Showdown V Special, Ali, Hulkamania, Mike Tyson and Gears 5. This was directly from their Con pamphlet from NYCC of this past year. I dont think you have to worry about them losing the license. This stuff takes time to bust out and they are smaller company.
How do you know Swamp Thing is next? Source or are you just guessing? Now THAT would be one Id want to grab.
I dont think them getting such a big license from WB that they wont be following through. They have a bunch of properties theyve announced that still dont even have prototypes of yet. They take their time, hell it took them like 5 years to get the original MK ninjas and even goro out. They showed them originally in like 2012 and Goro just hit in 2018. They arent a big company so these things take alot of refinement and figuring how its going to look etc. Interesting enough, I m pretty sure they dont really reuse alot of parts minus the ninja palette swaps. Alot of men in Gi's and i dont see any of them looking the same. ?
Bane will be followed by Swamp Thing. They really seem to have a thing for the huge characters.
It would, actually, but I'm with abnuggler. I'm not 100% sure these figures are getting released.

Swamp Thing? That would be pretty cool!
I'll give you that. We definitely don't have a short of Batman or Superman figures. But I still buy them so maybe the joke's on me! I don't think anyone has done real justice to these particular designs of Batman and Superman yet.I hope we do see him and maybe a new additional character at Toy Fair. That's one of the big things I'll be looking out for!
Everyone has their favorite characters they like to collect many iterations from, I understand that. And ALOT of people loooove batman and superman. I mean those are like DCs main properties that everyone knows the most. And yeah you could say theres been a real Injustice to the batman and superman designs into figures.
Well with all the updates Storms been throwing out just since the start of the year, I think its safe to say we re going to see a wholllllle lot more from them this time around.
I kind of like that tho, it makes them alot less predictable and how many effing Batmans and Supermans are there now in figure form compared to Lobos, Darkseids and Banes? Also they are doing similar with the King of Fighters line with having Rugal be first instead of their mainstay Terry Bogard come out last. And we will will most likely see their Kenshiro fromHokuto no Ken stuff in 2 weeks at Toyfair with new joints and everything.
It's odd that they've been doing only villains so far. Most toy lines start with the main heroes, but it's like Storm is going the opposite route. I'm not picking up a Bane if the line doesn't have a good Batman. I'm not getting Darkseid if we don't have a good Superman. I'm hesitant on this line.Where's our Storm Collectibles Fist of the North Star figures?


Yes, this movie is a tear-jerker but also bears the mark of a well thought out script with twists and depth that will appeal to the intuitive viewer.
After the death of his six year old daughter two years earlier, Howard is racked with grief and struggles to integrate back into life. The recurring motif of Howard knocking down domino tracks (set up weeks in the making) by a single flick of the first domino, becomes a fitting metaphor for how his life had been shattered in a single moment by the death of his daughter.
Withdrawn and empty, Howard writes letters to the abstractions of love, time and death as he tries to fix his mind. When Love, Time and Death reply in human form, Howard begins to question his sanity and so do others.
But as this story intricately breaks its way through Howard's emotions, three work colleagues who are concerned for their friend and boss also unexpectedly benefit from the wise counsel of Love (Kiera Knightly), Time (Jacob Latimore) and Death (Helen Mirren) adding sub-plot lines that beautifully interlock with Howard's grief issues.
Kate Winslet plays the role of Claire and connects with Time, as she has put her life on hold for her career instead of pursuing her desire to start a family.
Edward Norton as Whit connects with Love as he deals with the guilt of not feeling deserving of his daughter's love after his divorce.
And Michael Pena in his role as Simon will tug at your heart strings as he connects with Death, and a serious secret he has been hiding must be revealed.
This truly is a heartrending story and with such a brilliant cast the quality is superb, enticing for the eyes as well as the heart. Helen Mirren is captivating in her role as death, and though death may be expected to be morbid, she brings a beautiful balance of humour and light-heartedness along with deep concern and thoughtfulness.
Investigating the idea on different levels that beauty exists and is still to be found even in the darkest of circumstances, Collateral Beauty leaves the viewer with a challenge that lingers long after the movie has ended. Where there is pain, love still exists, time is a gift not to be wasted and death makes us treasure what we have.
