Update 26 December 2015. It is interesting that the Minister's media release says nothing about the cost of the project ($A100m) but mentions employment and investment benefits in Picardy, France, where the project is located. Meanwhile, the Minister's announcement has not yet found its way onto the website of the Australian Embassy in Paris.
Update 25 December 2015. The 'taking out the trash' tactic (see below) worked well for the Minister: after 48 hours, the only mentions of the Minister's release were on the Honest History website, on Newsburst (a website that soaks up news releases from hither and yon), and on two ex-servicemen's sites, which also soak up relevant news releases. As Honest History said on Twitter, if this is such a great project, why sneak out the announcement when no-one is listening?
Stuart Robert MP, Minister for Veterans' Affairs and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Centenary of Anzac, has just announced the awarding of a construction contract for the Sir John Monash Interpretive Centre at Villers-Bretonneux in France.
Honest History's arguments against this project have been set out in full on our website starting here. Or search the site under 'Monash' and 'boondoggle'. Our most recent piece is here.
We checked the French translation of 'boondoggle'*. It's still boondoggle. Est-ce une boondoggle embarrassante, peut-etre ?


Who is this rock star?
When I first heard of "Beth Costello" I was working on some Women's Ministry social events at my church that involved scrapbooking. This was back in 2006 or 2007? I kept hearing about the fabulous scrapbook pages this gal was coming up with. And let me tell you, Beth's creativity lived up to the hype.
I don't think there's a thing she can't make!
Beth grew up in Columbia and went to school at Hickman where she met and became friends with her would-be husband, Bill Costello. They started dating a few years after graduation and married in 1997.
Beth studied Nutrition at Mizzou and became a Registered Dietician in 2000. But she says she can't remember a time when she wasn't a maker. Everything from fabric covered photo albums in high school & cross stitching to the stint she had working in a bridal shop designing and making veils to match wedding dresses. She started paper scrapbooking and card making when Emily was born in 2003. In the fall of 2015, after a co-worker at Boone told her she should put her cards at Plume, she wandered in and I snapped her up as a vendor ASAP!
These days she still enjoys making cards, but most often you might find her with her mobile crafting supplies…stitching on her stash of Christmas ornaments whenever she has a spare moment in the carpool line, or waiting on kids at one of their activities.
I'm so excited about these ornaments she's making this year! I cannot believe the tiny little details in each and every one.
Beth and I have worked out a way for you to order custom wreaths and bouquets using a felt flower color chart hanging at Plume. If you see something you like in this post…just stop by and we can help you place an order in your favorite colors.
Aside from seeing all the pictures of her creations I'm always posting from Beth, you may have also met her at Plume on one of the days she works part-time in the shop. Not only is she great with customers and makes pretty stuff…she's a cleaning, organizing machine and helps keep things from becoming a complete mess behind the counter. Probably because she has lots of practice cleaning up after these three at home.
I'm so thankful to have Beth around. Not just because she keeps things from becoming a cluttered mess physically…but because she also has a calming spirit. She reflects Jesus. She's become a good friend. A confidant and loyal supporter of this little baby of mine called Plume.
P.S. Stop by this Friday and say Hi to Beth! She's in the shop from 10-3 each week.

The Assimitron was a Japanese device uses to measure fluctuating  levels at crop canopies. Led by E. Inoue at the National Institute of Agricultural Sciences in Tsukuba, Japan, the device itself was an offshoot of an earlier Australian invention, the Evapotron that first found mention in a 1958 article in the journal Nature. The Evaporimeter, as it was first called, was used to measure the evaporations from natural surfaces. As for the Assimitron, it "instantaneously" performed "the necessary calculations for determining water vapour flux by correlation of humidity fluctuations with vertical wind fluctuations.". Such calculations required the use of a complex centralized computer to process the enormous quantities of data. Part of this stemmed from the need to perform two different equations to deal with turbulent and low flows, depending on whether it was a windy or sunny day.

Ruhl also addressed an issue that had been brought up in at least one township meeting about his residency in the township. Ruhl's home in the village of Blissfield is for sale and records in Lucas County, Ohio, show he had purchased a home in Holland, Ohio, in 2014. Further, according to Lucas County Probate Court records, on his Lucas County, Ohio, marriage license application dated Oct. 1, 2014, Ruhl had listed that Holland, Ohio, address as his residence.
"Reportedly, there have been some questions as to my current address etc.," he said. "I will say that as of today, Monday, March 23rd, 2015, I am a resident, homeowner and taxpayer within the Village of Blissfield.
If the township appoints a replacement within 30 days of the resignation, that person will serve until the end of the vacant term that will be up for election in the November 2016.
The next township meeting is Thursday. According to Michigan statute, as soon as an elected official moves from the governmental unit served, the seat becomes vacant.

Unified basketball program already a hit
Lauren Read
Free Press Staff Writer
The University of Vermont's Patrick Gym is getting ready to host another high school basketball state championship game.
This one will likely look a little different than the Burlington-Rice grudge match or the crowning of the Champlain Valley dynasty in March.
The Unified basketball program, which partners students with disabilities and athletes without disabilities on the court, will hold its first state final on Tuesday, May 10.
The longtime Special Olympics event is in its first year under the umbrella of the Vermont Principals' Association. With that comes the title game and all the other benefits of being a recognized high school sport, from bus rides to new uniforms, school announcements to certified officials.
"They wanted a competitive model and they also wanted a model where there was a winner and a loser," said VPA associate executive director Bob Johnson. "That's what the students wanted, they really enjoyed this competitive experience."
Joining the VPA also comes with the sport's own index rankings, which Mount Mansfield coach Joe O'Brien and his players spent time dissecting after Monday's 42-24 win over Colchester.
"I don't really know what this year's playoffs will look like," O'Brien said. "It will be fun."
The victory elevated the Cougars to the No. 2 ranking in the North Division and had a couple of members of the Unified squad sounding a lot like their varsity counterparts.
"The playoffs start and we'll see who we get for the quarterfinals," said one MMU player. "(We want to) go all the way to finals."
Teaming up with the VPA
Unified sports have been part of Vermont athletic landscape for years, with the Special Olympics operating the program that teams up athletes with special needs and partners without developmental disabilities.
This year, though, Special Olympics and the VPA built a system that has worked well in other states across the country: Moving the Unified hoops program under the umbrella of the governing body for the state's high school sports.
"They wanted this to run like a regular high school program," Johnson said. "They wanted to have a league, they wanted to be able to play games, they wanted to have a tournament, they wanted to use regular certified officials."
The two organizations decided to start with basketball, reached out to high schools across the state and started with 14 teams in late March.
Now, a month later, the league — which lost two teams as the season progressed — enters its postseason. First-round games started on Friday, with the quarterfinals expected to take place on Monday and Tuesday.
"It was taking the model that we have now for unified sports and ... now it is part of the varsity calender," said Special Olympics sports and competition manager Justin Graham. "There is varsity basketball, JV basketball, freshman basketball and unified sports basketball. It's no different and it's not treated any differently than those other levels."
The Unified sports model puts the athletes with developmental disabilities on the court with partners, who are players without special needs. The partners work with the athletes on the court, looking to create opportunities for their teammates on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.
"The partners are basically coaches on the court, they lead by example," O'Brien said. "Without the partners, this would not be realistic at all."
The league allows up to two partners on the court at one time and the three other players must be athletes.
"I have a niece, she is a student at Milton and she is one of the partners," Johnson said. "After their first game, she sent me a text and just said, 'This was awesome, this is one of the best things that I have ever done.'"
Part of the community
While the Special Olympics and VPA hammered out the details, the goal for both organizations was clear. They wanted to give athletes a chance to participate in their school's sports community.
"They are high school students –– we are always looking for activities that students in high schools want to participate in," Johnson said. "This is another segment of the student population."
The VPA may be in charge of the nuts and bolts, but it is up to the individual schools and athletic directors to help the athletes feel like a member of their respective athletic programs.
"There have been games where we have had 50, 60, 70 attendees," Graham said. "The schools are really doing an amazing job of really just owning this pilot program for this first year and really making it align with what all the sporting event's experiences would be like."
For the students athletes at Mount Mansfield, that means team polos and uniforms, announcements over the intercom and Twitter updates.
"It is all about making this population of athlete feel like everyone else," O'Brien said. "It's all about building a community and providing students with developmental disabilities an opportunity to play organized sports."
So far, the project has been a resounding success.
"The schools that are involved will tell you, I have had half a dozen ADs tell me, that it was the best thing that they have ever done in their school," Johnson said. "The positiveness that comes out of it, the camaraderie with the kids working with their partners, every school that I have talked to has seen nothing but positives out of this."
A successful experiment
The positive message that has resonated throughout the schools participating in Unified basketball is exactly what Graham and the Special Olympics were hoping to see when they approached the VPA.
"Special Olympics has kind of taken a step back, which is part of what we want out of the partnership," Graham said. "Building this into schools allows it to be sustainable. It allows it to transition and really place the responsibility on the schools to provide these types of programs for a larger population of students."
As for the VPA, they are thinking big.
"Our hope is that the numbers are going to expand. We absolutely want to continue this.," Johnson said. "I really see us expanding by a substantial number of schools next year."
While the organizers are looking long term, O'Brien and his team are focused on finishing the season strong, just like everyone else.
"It's not about the record, it's about the camaraderie," O'Brien said. "It's about this population of athlete being able to boast 'we are now playing organized sports, on a team, with a coach, with uniforms, they are keeping score, we have officials.'"

Trees have many benefits for homeowners. Properly chosen and planted, they enhance the look and value of your property and can cut your utility bills. Trees can also attract desirable song birds and other wildlife.
Picking a tree for your yard isn't as simple as heading to the nearest nursery and picking the prettiest tree you see. There are several important considerations to keep in mind when choosing the right tree for your yard.
Perhaps the most important thing to consider when picking a new tree is the size the tree will be at maturity. Take note of where you'd like to plant the tree and any surrounding structures that may limit the size of the tree that you choose. Do you have overhead power lines that need to be considered? Will a large tree with spreading branches hit your house or encroach on your neighbor's property when it is fully grown?
Consider the root system as well. Larger trees have larger root systems. Depending on the type of tree, these roots may spread along just under the surface, as in many varieties of birch trees, affecting the health of your lawn and other plants. Alternatively, the root system can go deep as with white oaks and hickory trees and possibly compromise the foundation of your house if planted too closely or underground pipe and sewer systems.
Evaluate the space where you intend to plant a tree and determine the maximum dimensions available for a mature tree. Picking the right size of tree now will save you much time and money in the future by avoiding the need to remove an overgrown tree.
Do you want a tree for ornamental reasons? Perhaps your search for a new tree stems from the desire to provide shade for your house and lower your cooling bills in the summer. The type of tree you choose will be directly tied to your reason for wanting a tree.
For ornamental trees, look for ones with interesting shapes or flowering types. Popular ornamental trees include crab apples, magnolias, redbuds, and Japanese maples. Some crab apple trees drop their fruit and can become quite messy. If that is something you'd prefer not to deal with, look for a crab apple that has "persistent" fruit. That simply means that the fruit will remain on the tree for birds to eat and will not drop to the ground.
For shade trees, look for fast growing trees with dense foliage. Some good shade trees include poplars, maples, birches, and oaks. Certain species, such as the sugar maple, provide shade in the summer and impressively colored fall foliage as well. If you live in an area that sees summer and winter, deciduous trees will provide shade during the summer and drop their leaves during the fall allowing winter sun to warm your home.
When you have determined the size and purpose of the tree you desire, take the time to visit a few nurseries and talk to the professionals there. Take a sample of your soil if possible and give them information about the area you'd like the tree to be planted. Choosing the right tree for your location and soil will allow your tree to flourish without a lot of work from you.
When you have chosen a tree, it is important to contact your local utilities and have them come out and mark your yard so that you can safely plant your tree (or have it planted) and avoid all underground utilities.

The Rev. Father A. J. O'Reilly, D.D., was a priest and author of the nineteenth century. His The Martyrs of the Coliseum, or Historical Records of the Great Amphitheater of Ancient Rome chronicles the miraculous faith and passions of such holy men as St. Ignatius of Antioch, Pope St. Stephen, St. Alexander, and many more. Father O'Reilly's work was published in 1875 by D. & J. Sadlier and Company, New York, and recommended to the faithful by the Rev. John Joseph, then Archbishop of Toronto. It was also printed by TAN in 1987 with a purchased typesetting.


Accolade Wines is considering closing its Knappstein winery and cellar door in the Clare Valley and selling or leasing its four vineyards there.
This is unconfirmed and Accolade has yet to comment publicly.
It follows news the company is shifting its Houghton Wines production to Nannup.
Accolade assets in Clare include the Leasingham, Ackland, Knappstein and Hanlin Hill vineyards.
The proposed changes are part of a review of all operations within the company.
Knappstein Enterprise Winery was established by Tim Knappstein in 1969. The cellar door operates in Clare from the old brewery building circa 1878.
WBM understands the Houghton cellar door and museum will close in May.
Accolade Wines is owned by The Carlyle Group, which bought the business from Champ Private Equity in April for $1 billion.


Engagement Photos at Diego's and Lake Las Vegas!
David and Valerie are such a beautiful couple! They had the idea of engagement photos in the restaurant Diego in the MGM where they met dancing! It was a perfect place especially because it was closed so we had the place to roam around and even jump up on the bar. They also decided on Lake Las Vegas to have a good variety, and it was a gorgeous day.
Hearing about their engagement story was one of my favorites. David planned such a beautiful time and yes you did have a perfect ring for her!
David got Valerie laughing the entire time, mostly by teasing her and she'd giggle and they would look at each other so cute!
so leave some love all just below where it says.. comment! what is your favorite?

Best Case Scenario for the Next 100 years in Education
This is the second part of a question about the best case scenario in education for the next 100 years.
There are some bright spots in the changes and trends happening in education. And there is reason to think that those trends are going to create change in education. Here are a few of those trends:
1)Flipped-Classroom. Although he's not the originator of the flipped-classroom, Sal Khan and the Khan Academy offers students 10 to 15 minute YouTube tutorials on all the subjects one would expect to cover in school. In other words, students can learn the content through watching videos outside of class and spend classroom time doing what was previously called 'homework.' Will the trend continue? For sure. There are some technology hurdles to overcome (such as not every student having access to watch videos at home) and accountability (how can you be sure that students are watching the videos), but I think the real hesitation is the mindset that knowledge in a classroom comes from the teacher. Technology replacing a human being in terms of delivering academic content goes against hundreds of years of education habit and tradition.
2)Online learning. Similar to a flipped classroom, learning online presents the opportunity for students to do their homework on a computer at their pace and then to have a virtual class with a live teacher. Students still take tests, but they can do their homework on their schedule and at home. That's a big deal for students and most students who I work with in this situation love it. I think that online learning both in high school and in college is going to be a trend that definitely continues.
3)Character Education. Another trend for the future of education, and one that I am most excited about, is the research surrounding a better understanding individual talents and strengths. There are a few programs, even schools, that are trying to look at anti-bullying and building empathy in their classrooms, and it seems that character education is going to seep into schools to solve these kinds of problems.
Will these trends continue? I think the online school has the best chance of making it. Flipped-classrooms would be a dream as well as character education. The best case scenario I can see is that education looks like leadership retreats centered on deepening self-knowledge, doing ropes courses in the forest, blending proactive projects with the support of Academic Life Coaches
And that's what I see as the best case scenario that could happen in schools – that educators see themselves more as Life Coaches who work with teenagers rather than teachers who are working with grades of students. If we as a society can solve the problem of delivering academic content by better using technology, we create the opportunity for teachers to interact with teenagers as coaches.
Asking teachers to consider themselves more as coaches is a big deal and represents a significant shift in culture. I think the next 100 years, and when the current generation is used to growing up with computers in their pockets, I think the technology is going to tip the scales in putting a premium on the kinds of skills that Life Coaching offers

We recently discovered Johnny Ward's blog OneStep4ward and have been impressed with his tales of super low budget travel and his recent epic journey across Africa: he's the first person we've heard of who has visited Somalia! He's been on the road for four years and shows no sign of stopping.
1) How long have you been travelling and where have you been?
I've been on the road since graduating from uni in summer 2006, so over 4 years now (hard to believe it's been that long!). I've been lucky enough to wander all over the world in that time, traveling through more than 50 countries.
2) Did you plan to travel for so long? What made you stay on the road?
Not at all! Initially I had planned to take one year out and then return to Ireland to work in a 'real job' but then I started getting interested in lifestyle design, long term travel etc and began questioning societies assumption that you should spend the best years of your life slaving in an office, saving for a retirement that may never come, so I decided to buck the trend and live the best life I could right now.
3) How do you fund your travels?
I make money from my travel blog, onestep4ward.com, also in the last few years I have 'worked' (in the loosest sense imaginable!) in the US, Korea, Australia, Thailand and in the UK. Traveling for a long time and doing the things you want to do is a lifestyle choice I guess so if I re-jig my priorities I don't have to work too much!
4) What do you enjoy about teaching English?
Although it maybe doesn't support the essence of teaching, the thing I enjoy most about teaching English is the freedom it allows. You can work anywhere in the world, literally – I think that's an amazing opportunity and one which I would encourage everyone to consider.
5) What advice do you have for someone wanting to teach English abroad?
To take the plunge! It can really open up new avenues in your life. Signing up for that first teaching job in Chiang Mai, Thailand was a scary prospect but thanks to that, 4 years on I'm still traveling, learning new languages, seeing new cultures – teaching English opened my mind to the possibilities of a life like this so I'd say to everyone – go for it!
6) You seem to be able to travel very cheaply. How do you manage it?
You know what, it's all about priorities. If I want to climb Kilimanjaro, yeah it's expensive but it's awesome, something I'll look back on in later life and smile. If I want to scuba dive the great barrier reef, it may not be cheap but I'd never pass up the opportunity.
The thing I save money on is the daily expenditures, things that in the long-term you think nothing of – cheeseburgers, milkshakes, luxury buses, better airlines. All these things just eat your cash and, at the end of the day, they're not necessary (for me anyway). So I would happily forgo those things for a month or 2 if it allowed me to trek with mountain gorillas in Rwanda!
7) You have travelled to some very off the beaten track destinations in Africa. Tell us about some of the most interesting places you have visited.
Wow! I guess the 3 or 4 most obscure places I've been are East Timor, Sudan, Bangladesh and Somalia. Somalia (or Somaliland more specifically) was a real experience! It was a bureaucratic nightmare arranging visas, transport, armed guards (really!) but well worth the effort.
8 ) Africa seems like a more expensive area to travel in than SE Asia. What's your budget there?
Africa is a weird one. Undoubtedly you can travel cheap there, accommodation and food are often delicious and the price is almost negligible but the activities available aren't cheap at all. Cage diving with great white sharks, bungee on Victoria Falls, safari in the Serengeti – those fees add up fast! I guess in 7 months in Africa I probably spent around $7k or $8k, maybe slightly more if you include world cup tickets too!
9) What is the best food you have eaten on your travels?
Definitely one of the best things about travel is the food! Best ever!? Hmmm, when I use to live in Chiang Mai I knew this local little place down about 5 side streets that sells BBQ chicken, glazed in Thai spicy sauce – amazing!
10) Where are you heading to next? Do you think you'll ever settle down in one place?
My mum will be reading this answer with vested interest! I'm moving back to Asia for a while in December, I'll be studying my Masters in Management and Education at Nottingham University, Kuala Lumpur campus so I plan to spend half my time in Thailand and Malaysia and the other half making the most of cheap flights around Asia. Ideally, my website will pay for my travels and then I can volunteer with NGOs around the world redesign education programmes for refugees, disadvantaged kids etc. That's the dream anyway.
Settling down? Who knows, for now I'm as happy as I've ever been. I know how fortunate I am to live the life I'm living so as long as I'm still smiling then I'll keep traveling. The world is such a big place, with so many amazing cultures, sights, people, activities – settling in one place seems, for me, to waste all that. But just like when I first set out in 2006 for a year abroad, we never know how are lives are going to turn out!

hey guys – thanks for all the love :) being on the road is such a good feeling (having said that, im typing this from home in ireland after jetting back for christmas dinner!) but back to asia again at the end of january.
The icecream was a welcome respite from the madness that is Shanghai. I was on a super tight budget but luckily enough my mother dear had flown over to watch the Beijing Olympics with me so she splashed out in some high-end ice-cream parlour, it was amazing!
Great interview, its people like Johnny who inspire me to keep saving and making the sacrifices I'm making to get on the road in less than 8 months. I've been reading Johnny's blog for a while and it is one of the most interesting by far.
It does help to have inspiration when you are saving away. It will be worth it!
Thanks for the comments everyone and glad you enjoyed the interview.

Masters student to help make World Series a moment fans will never forget
Paul Caracciolo '18, MS '19 is making a World Series run with the winningest team in baseball this season, the Boston Red Sox.
The graduate student currently works on the fan and youth engagement team for the Red Sox, interacting with some of the youngest fans in baseball and giving them unforgettable experiences at Fenway Park in Boston, all while pursuing his master's degree in public relations.
While all-star Red Sox players such as Mookie Betts and J.D. Martinez prepare for the start of the 2018 World Series on October 23, Caracciolo has worked tirelessly to create lifelong Red Sox fans and positive game-day experiences through user-friendly apps, virtual-reality games, prizes and contests.
"It's our job to make the kids happy and enhance their experience which, in turn, really helps the parents out," Caracciolo said.
"We strive to make Fenway more fun than it already is — and when that's the case, it's a win-win for everyone involved."
He has tapped into his extensive experiences in the classroom and in student media at Quinnipiac.
Caracciolo has been heavily involved in sports media organizations, including Q30 Television and the Association for Women in Sports Media, as well as Quinnipiac University in Los Angeles.

"This job is different every day and fans present different challenges. It's important to be ready for anything," he said. "At Quinnipiac, I gained leadership skills and critical thinking skills that contribute to my ability to problem solve on the fly."
Caracciolo hopes that earning his master's in public relations at Quinnipiac will one day land him a front-office job with a professional sports team. But for now, he's enjoying his time being a part of history, saying, "My office is Fenway Park. You can't beat that, you really can't."

ModReviews: Glee – Le Clean Freak, C'est Chic!
If you've had the pleasure of watching Glee, Fox's new musi-comedy, then you're already as smitten by guidance counselor Emma Pillsbury's stand-out style as I am. Quite frankly, I have no idea how her love interest, Mr. Schuester, is resisting that super cute clean freak gone chic! But just in case you haven't had the pleasure of sussing out Emma's stellar style, I'm here with a recap of the darling details of her playful yet professional look.
Keep reading to learn more about Emma's great style!
Emma frequently rocks a marvelously monochromatic look that's typically composed of four key pieces — pencil skirt, blouse, cardigan, and belt. Her style is always polished, with the blouse tucked in, pencil skirt perfectly tailored, and belt buckled up around her dainty waist. In episode three, Emma dons an enchanting coral ensemble featuring a bow-waisted skirt that's a dead-ringer for the beautiful Bow-jito Skirt or Concerto Skirt! Now, I have the basic elements of Miss Pillsbury's polished perfection, but what if I want to mix it up a bit? How does Emma retain her immaculate appearance while adding a little oomph?
While she never strays too far from her formula for fabulousness, when she does, the results are sweetly satisfying. We see Miss Pillsbury in a purple plaid jacket paired with a vivid violet sheath and suede tote in the pilot. In episode two, there's a fabulous lime green top featuring a cream collar, buttoned placket, and contrasting stitching. Episode three brings us Emma in a floral, short sleeve sweater worn over a white collared blouse and pink skirt. For my take on tailored-posh, I'll be matching up the Pop Tartan Jacket with the Bow-t Neck Dress, or perhaps the Shirley Jane Top, P.Y.T. Skirt, and Princess Ozma Cardigan! Oh, the options are endless. There are a plethora of pairings that will satiate your taste for darling yet daring looks!
I also feel it must be noted that Emma's potential paramour isn't clueless when it comes to being chic. Mr. Schuester favors a hip professorial look that pairs cool ties against cardigans and button-front shirts. And who am I to discriminate which gender fashion inspiration comes from? I'm already imagining the lovely looks I can create in Schuester style with the Business Casual Necklace and Gold Tie Affair Necklace! I'll just pop one of these adorable adornments under the Basic Cable Knit Cardi, add my fave jeans and flats, and I've got a menswear-inspired look that hits all the right notes.
I'm so anxious to see what else is inside the wonderful wardrobes these marvelous new fashion muses (not to mention — will they act upon their palpable chic chemistry?). Stay tuned for more 'Glee-ful' get-ups, because I have a feeling that I'll be singing the praises of this chic show all season long!
I love Emma's clothing with a super passion.
So glad someone else noticed! It's the first thing i fell in love with about the character.
I love her hair too…it's all, like…FLIPPY! I just want to touch it.
Musicals + awesome clothes = greatest show ever!
I love this review! I think Emma's appearance on screen is helping fill the hole left by "Pushing Daisies" Chuck.
I own one of the shirts she was wearing two episodes ago—it was a short-sleeve cotton top with orange roses on it from H&M!
I definitely did do a little Emma Pillsbury last Wednesday in my outfit. At least I tried to channel her a bit. Today didn't turn out great on the Emma front, but I love that you also found her style so compelling you needed to blog about it.
Love love love her style. :D!!!
I really really really like her clothes. hopefully Emma will fill the "Pushing Daisies" hole left by Chuck.

Q: In Django: Can I set logging level highest than CRITICAL? I have a project in Django 1.5 and a have logging handlers for debug, info and error.
LOGGING = {
    'version': 1,
    'disable_existing_loggers': False,
    'formatters': {
        'simple': {
            'format': '%(levelname)s %(message)s'
        },
    },
    'handlers': {
        'console':{
            'level': 'INFO',
            'class': 'logging.StreamHandler',
            'formatter': 'simple'
        },
        'file_debug':{
            'level':'DEBUG',
            'class':'logging.handlers.TimedRotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, '..','logs','DEBUG.log'),
            'when':'midnight',
            'interval':1,
            'backupCount': 4,
            'formatter':'simple',
            'filters':['require_debug_true']
        },
        'file_info':{
            'level':'INFO',
            'class':'logging.handlers.TimedRotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, '..','logs','INFO.log'),
            'when':'midnight',
            'interval':1,
            'backupCount': 4,
            'formatter':'simple',
        },
        'file_error':{
            'level':'ERROR',
            'class':'logging.handlers.TimedRotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, '..','logs','ERROR.log'),
            'when':'midnight',
            'interval':1,
            'backupCount': 4,
            'formatter':'simple',
        },
    },
    'loggers': {
        'django.request':{
            'handlers': ['console'],
            'propagate': False,
            'level': 'DEBUG',
        },
    },
}

However I would like to have a log file that only contains specific stuff, I don't want any of the errors printed in it. I thought that using CRITICAL level may solve my problem, but since the information on my log is only for reporting info, it may become handful to have a generic level higher than CRITICAL, like:
        'file_report':{
            'level':'REPORT',
            'class':'logging.handlers.TimedRotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, '..','logs','REPORT.log'),
            'when':'midnight',
            'interval':1,
            'backupCount': 4,
            'formatter':'simple',
        },

What would be the best practice for my case?

A: You should configure a custom logger and send messages to it. For example, assuming your package is called foo:
LOGGING = {
    ...
    'handlers': {
        ...
        'file_report': {
            'level': 'INFO',
            'class': 'logging.handlers.TimedRotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, '..', 'logs', 'REPORT.log'),
            'when':'midnight',
            'interval': 1,
            'backupCount': 4,
            'formatter':'simple',
        },
    },
    'loggers': {
        'django.request': {
            'handlers': ['console'],
            'propagate': False,
            'level': 'DEBUG',
        },
        'foo.report': {
            'handlers': ['file_report'],
            'propagate': False,
            'level': 'INFO',
        },
    },
}

Then in your application code:
import logging
logging.getLogger('foo.report').info('something something')

The Whitepaper which was edited by the BAFM is said to be authored by the Project Group Business & Information Systems Engineering of the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology FIT.
Improving communication and cooperation between authorities at a municipal, state and national level.
The creation of reliable and secure digital identities and improving communication.
During the research process for the PoC, the three Partners involved in the operation made use of a permissioned version (private) of an Ethereum-based blockchain platform.
According to the white paper, it was discovered that DLT allows for the development of tamper-proof digital identities for refugees that arrive without ID documents. This identity is based on biometric data which was collected at their entry points.
With this tamper-proof information effectively stored, it becomes relatively easy to verify the identity of each asylum applicant across multiple agencies.


BYOND Forums - Off Topic - Jp's Thoughts on JRPG Design, Part 0: Where are we, anyway?
Jp's Thoughts on JRPG Design, Part 0: Where are we, anyway?
A few months back I started making a few posts on my blog regarding the design of JRPG-type games. Tiberath suggested that they'd be better placed in the BYOND RPG guild. To that end, I intend to make a series of posts, semi-regularly, on various aspects of JRPG design, for your perusal, consideration, and criticism. If you've been reading the posts on my blog regarding this topic, the first few here will be repeats - although rewritten, and hopefully slightly more insightful this time around.
But before I go on with that, we need to lay some ground rules. First and foremost, what is a JRPG?
The acronym stands for Japanese Role Playing Game, but that's obviously a little too specific (Unless I was wanting to address only the Japanese developer population of BYOND). I intend to discuss games in the same vein as Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, and Lufia, not just Japanese games in the same genre. "JRPG-like" would probably be somewhat more accurate, but it's an extra five characters.
Are there any characteristics that JRPGs tend to have in common? I'm glad you asked!
- The games I'll be discussing will mostly have turn-based battle systems of some sort - ranging from Lufia's "pick all of your actions for the next round and then do them" system to FF12's handling of speed differentials (Yes, Final Fantasy 12's battle system is turn-based. It might not look it, but it is).
- They all have a plot you must go through, with battles interspersed. Quests and puzzles should be expected, emphasised to varying degrees. Linearity is not necessarily a property of JRPGs, but almost all of them are very linear (Which is, I think, something that should be different - but that's an article for another time).
- Essentially all JRPGs have a party form around you - you're almost never on your own for more than short sections. There are very good reasons for this that will likely spring up in later articles.
- Characters get stronger over time and learn new skills primarily through winning battles. Generally this takes the form of 'experience points'.
That doesn't mean that if your game exhibits few or even none of the above properties, you can't learn anything from these articles, but you'll probably find them less helpful. Still, a number of the things I'll be discussing are somewhat more universal.
To wrap things up: What properties do you think I've missed? What properties do you think have I listed that you think aren't necessarily the case? What properties do you think are optional? What do you wish was different about JRPGs, on the whole?
That reminds me of every single RPG I ever played. So I think thats a little insane.
I'll admit that the differences between CRPGs developed in the western style (say, Baldur's Gate 2) and JRPGs are not all that easy to pin down. Probably the most obvious differences tend to be in the depth of character development (Most western CRPGs have much more complex D&D-derived systems) and linearity (Most western CRPGs are slightly less linear).
But that might just be because my primary experience of western CRPGs is BG2, Planescape: Torment, and Morrowind.
I don't think levels and HP and status effects are really that specific to JRPGs; they're quite common for RPGs in general, deriving from the RPG genre's parentage from D&D and even older games.
Parties and turn-based battles, though, are definitely more common in JRPGs than in other genres--though I would consider neither to be an absolute requirement, more of a strong guideline.
The linearity issue I also think is endemic to RPGs as a whole, except MMORPGs of course which are really a different animal.
Well even D&D had turns, so that is another one you'd have to rule out. The same could be said for parties. Parties played a huge role in D&D. For one, people usually don't want to play alone, I haven't played in a group smaller then 4.
Well D&D itself is more of a pencil-and-paper game, where JRPGs are, I would say, specific to consoles and computers. As far as the evolution of RPGs on computers and consoles in general, it's very safe to say that parties are less common in non-JRPGs.
- In JRPGs, death tends to be cheaper.
- In JRPGs, there's far, far less in the way of noncombat situations.
The list of characteristics was mostly intended as a list of what JRPGs tend to be, rather than what differentiates JRPGs from other genres.
Most accurate image when comparing the differences between JRPGs, Western RPGs and D&D.
To be more specific. In a JRPG the storyline is fixed, and I have very little say about what happens in said storyline. Actually, it is rare if I am given any choices at all regarding what happens, and even if I am, they are usually insignificant and make no difference at all.
In a Western RPG, I am usually given much more freedom. There is a storyline that I can follow, and how I go about following it is usuall up to me, if I chose to follow it. I can choose to be good or evil, to kill everyone to be diplomatic, I may choose to side with a different faction and so on. But after all thse choices are made and done, the end result is usually the same, or very similar, the path I took to get there is just different.
Although in JRPGs the story line is often fixed, I'd like to point out that you are given freedoms depending on the game.
The perfect example I can think of is FFVIII, where once all the introduction and tutorial crap is out of the way, you're free to go where you want to and do as you wish without following the story, it means your just limited to your current situation. Where as in FFX, you have pretty much no freedom. Kill monsters, listen to people talk, play some annoying sports game and walk down the clearly labelled path. No running off in some weird direction to talk to some obscure NPC in a hut miles away from the storyline path.
Have you ever played Naruto: Rise of a Ninja or Naruto: The Broken Bond on the XBOX 360? They are adventure/fighter/RPG games and I think they'd offer a solid glimpse into one path future JRPGs may go down.
Imagine an adventure RPG, something sort of like Pokemon with a stronger story, then replace the turn-based system with Street Fighter II style fighter combat. If you can stand anime and have access to an XBOX 360 then I highly recommend giving them a shot. It wouldn't be so useful for your articles themselves, but more as a jumping point into the area of taking elements from one genre into another. You could probably string a whole article out of how traditional JRPG elements can be applied to non-JRPGs and vise-versa after playing it.
What do you wish was different about JRPGs, on the whole?
I wish the combat systems hadn't of stopped evolving in the SNES era. Sure, there were advancements here and there, but where almost every entry in other genres attempts to be ahead of cutting edge we just do the exact same thing with different labels on the actions (no, we're not summoning a giant monster, we're linking a giant monster). Turn-based combat is almost a defining trait of the JRPG, but it's very frustrating that we're just now starting to attempt to bring combat in JRPGs up to speed with the rest.
The standard turn-based system is at the point where I can't finish a typical JRPG simply because I hate watching the five second battle intro, pressing A until the menus go away, waiting 20 seconds for my guys to go through their attack animations, watching the five second victory scene, then going back to the world map to repeat it. Doing that even ten times between minor plot points drives me nuts.
I'd honestly be happier if they'd just ditch junk monsters and xp and make it so I only fight bosses. Fighting against enemies that don't require any sort of strategy to defeat is just boring, and xp just means that you'll arrive at half your boss fights either over-powered to the point where you don't need a strategy or under-powered to the point where no matter how good a tactician you are you will lose.
But in FF8, all that freedom amounted to nothing basically. It did not progress, or alter the storyline in anyway at all. Most all of the time, the storyline was not even mentioned.
To progress the storyline, I had to follow a set course, and anything I could do just had no effect on that course.
Compared to say... Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magika. In this game, the storyline can clearly be changed by my choices, some choices are fairly significant as well, resulting in several possible endings to the game. To make it even better, how the storyline is presented is up to me.
Say I need an item off of an NPC, I could do a quest for him. Alternatively I could just kill him, steal it off of him, or talk him into giving it to me.
The entire game can be played like this, do a quest, kill everything, sneak around, or talk my way out of it (literally, every combat situation in the game can be avoided by a smooth talker).
These are the sort of choices I am generally never given in JRPGs.


The highlight of release 1.7 is unquestionably the long-awaited file transfer. Many of our customers have requested this feature and now it is finally here. Remote Assistant 1.7 features bi-directional fie transfer, meaning that you can initiate file transfer on either computer to provide more powerful interaction between the host and the target computer.
File transfer is primarily aimed at transferring documents, pictures, and installation packages, whereas transferring sizeable media files is not recommended. There are no restrictions as to what file can be transferred, so you can share just about any file necessary.
To initiate a file transfer, click on the file icon on the Remote Assistant's toolbar. Then click Upload Files in the newly appeared file transfer window.
Select the required files and the file transfer will start.
In our preliminary testing we were able to get some impressive transfer speeds and reliability; hopefully you will too! Check out CloudBerry Remote Assistant 1.7 and share your feedback in the comment section below.

Tyndale students thank our supporters
Tuesday, March 10, 2015 —
On Wednesday, February 25, the Tyndale community celebrated the third annual Tuition Free Forward Day. This is the date that represents the end of tuition being paid for by students and the beginning of tuition fees being provided by Tyndale supporters. Without Tyndale's supporters, students would pay approximately 20 per cent more to attend. On this day, which is 80 per cent of the way through the academic year, Tyndale pauses to make this point to students and the wider Tyndale community. The whole theme is focused on philanthropy.
Among the students enjoying the activities as well as the complimentary lunch, which was graciously provided by ARAMARK Canada, were Kaelynne Franck and I.J. Makan. Kaelynne [BA Biblical Studies & Theology and English 2015] would love to write children's literature so kids can read books with biblical truths that are woven into an engaging story. Kaelynne is grateful for Tyndale supporters. During her time at Tyndale, she has received the President's Scholarship and other bursaries. Without the financial aid, prayer and time provided by supporters, she would not be here. To her, supporters are an inspiration and she plans to give back to Tyndale in the future.
I.J. [BA Biblical Studies & Theology and Philosophy 2016], an international student, has been inspired by his professors to pursue graduate studies and become a professor himself. Without the assistance and prayers of supporters, he knows he never would have reached this far. "If I had to pay for the whole tuition, I would have only been here for the first or second year," he says. His parents used much of their savings to fund his education. Supporters' financial aid has eased the stress for I.J. and his parents, allowing him to focus on his studies. Supporters make it possible for him to work towards his dream of receiving a PhD.
"How do you even begin to say thank you to a group of people who make the Tyndale experience so amazing for our students?" asks Kevin Kirk, Senior Director, External Relations. "Our supporters, which include donors, alumni, churches and organizations, are incredible people. All we can say is a heartfelt thank you for everything you're doing and for letting God use you in this way. Your support makes the Tyndale experience possible for so many."

Following this long list of directives from the base modules, we can begin to envision a first configuration adapted to your profile in terms of targeted traffic and, more importantly, to your hardware. In this section, we will first take a closer look at the default configuration file to understand the implications of each setting.
There is a reason why Nginx stands apart from other web servers—it's extremely lightweight, optimized, and to put it simply, it's fast. As such, the default configuration is efficient, and in many cases, you will not need to apply radical changes to the initial setup.

cron is a time-based job scheduler in Unix-like computer operating systems. cron enables users to schedule jobs (commands or shell scripts) to run periodically at certain times or dates. It is commonly used to automate system maintenance or administration, though its general-purpose nature means that it can be used for other purposes, such as connecting to the Internet and downloading email.
The cron list above shows you which jobs are currently runing on your system. It may be totally empty, or it may have some jobs in there. Lets take a look at adding jobs to the cron list.
All jobs in the cron list take the following format (We can also forward the output to another process, we'll look at this later).
2 is the default file descriptor for stderr.
1 is the default file descriptor for stdout.
>& is shell syntax for "fold a file descriptor into another"
We can also schedule more complex cron jobs using some special characters.
The asterisk indicates that the cron expression will match for all values of the field; e.g., using an asterisk in the 4th field (month) would indicate every month.
Slashes are used to describe increments of ranges. For example 3-59/15 in the 1st field (minutes) would indicate the 3rd minute of the hour and every 15 minutes thereafter. The form "*/..." is equivalent to the form "first-last/...", that is, an increment over the largest possible range of the field.
'L' stands for "last". When used in the day-of-week field, it allows you to specify constructs such as "the last Friday" ("5L") of a given month. In the day-of-month field, it specifies the last day of the month.
The 'W' character is allowed for the day-of-month field. This character is used to specify the weekday (Monday-Friday) nearest the given day. As an example, if you were to specify "15W" as the value for the day-of-month field, the meaning is: "the nearest weekday to the 15th of the month". So if the 15th is a Saturday, the trigger will fire on Friday the 14th. If the 15th is a Sunday, the trigger will fire on Monday the 16th. If the 15th is a Tuesday, then it will fire on Tuesday the 15th. However if you specify "1W" as the value for day-of-month, and the 1st is a Saturday, the trigger will fire on Monday the 3rd, as it will not 'jump' over the boundary of a month's days. The 'W' character can be specified only when the day-of-month is a single day, not a range or list of days.
'#' is allowed for the day-of-week field, and must be followed by a number between one and five. It allows you to specify constructs such as "the second Friday" of a given month.
Note: Question mark is a non-standard character and exists only in some cron implementations. It is used instead of '*' for leaving either day-of-month or day-of-week blank.
Note: ">/dev/null" forwards the output to a bottomless pit! Useful if you want to remove trace of the output completely.
/etc/cron.allow - If this file exists, then you must be listed therein (your username must be listed) in order to be allowed to use cron jobs.
/etc/cron.deny - If the cron.allow file does not exist but the /etc/cron.deny file does exist, then you must not be listed in the /etc/cron.deny file in order to use cron jobs.
You will now need to restart the cron service to pick up your changes.

Previous / Lawson: Losing Monaco F2 win "a tough one to swallow" Next / Ticktum: More European F2 rounds would solve "boring" breaks
FIA F2 / Monaco News
Masi explains why Deledda raced despite 107% breach
FIA race director Michael Masi has explained why officials permitted Alessio Deledda to contest last weekend's FIA Formula 2 races in Monaco despite breaching the 107% qualifying rule.
The F2 rookie failed to lap within 107% of the pace in qualifying and in Thursday's practice session but was allowed to take part in the championship's three races.
Deledda's best time of 1m27.744s set in the second of two 16 minute qualifying sessions held at Monaco was 6.341s adrift of the 1m21.403s posted by Prema Racing's Robert Shwartzman in the same session.
FIA regulations state that a driver is not permitted to race if they fail to qualify within 107 percent of the fastest time unless given permission due to exceptional circumstances.
A stewards report confirmed the HWA driver would be permitted to race despite the rule breach but did not offer a reason why the Italian was allowed to compete.
Lawson: Losing Monaco F2 win "a tough one to swallow"
Record breaking Pourchaire to maintain focus on Formula 2
Masi has since confirmed that the team had told stewards Deledda's car had been suffering from mechanical issues over the weekend, and that the 26-year-old's previous history in qualifying was taken into account when making the call to allow him to race.
"So with regards to Deledda and the F2 race, the stewards, having spoken with them, had a look or had two parts," said Masi.
"They've obviously summoned the team and the team displayed to them that they had been having mechanical issues with that car throughout the weekend.
"In addition to that they had a look at Deledda's participation at the previous event, which he fulfilled all of the criteria. And on that basis they allowed him to start at the back of the grid, which is within the discretion that they have as stewards.
"Why they did or didn't put in the reason, I wasn't in the stewards room and I'm not one of the stewards so I can't expand on that."
Deledda went on to record finishes of 18th, 13th and 17th but was a lap down in all three races.
The F2 Championship continues with a visit to Baku, Azerbaijan from 4-6 June.

Raw Pad Thai! from Camille Waggoner on Vimeo.
Great receipt Beni! Glad you are brining healthy living to the Body of Christ :)You might also want to check out 'Follow Your Heart'... They have some raw & cooked receipts using their vegan products. This is one example of a raw receipt: Sun-Dried Tomato Basil Cheese Log http://www.followyourheart.com/recipes/13/ They also have some yummy cheese cake receipts on their website-just one caution make sure you get the non-hydrogenated vegan cream cheese (they have two kinds) add some soy yogurt e.g., blueberry or cherry to make the cheese cake a little tangier.
Can you give me spelling for ingredient that you use instead of soy sauce? Can't wait to make this. Made my mouth water!
BTW Made some spiral sliced veggies today and used with some organic spaghetti sauce. It was very tasty. Thanks for sharing!
Made this meal and it was wonderful. Found all ingedients at Fred Meyer.
I'm going to make this today! Thank you for the video!! My family and I just got back from visiting my folks in NZ last week and I am still jet lagged bleh. Watching this video has just motivated me to go raw for the week, good idea! I've followed Natalia's raw detox before but it's been awhile. When is your book coming out Beni?! I think I remember on FB awhile back there was perhaps a health book coming out? I would love to get my hands on that when it does. Thank you!

Effects of Biofeedback and Task-Oriented Intervention on Balance Confidence and its Relationship with Social Participation among Stroke Survivors
Elumalai Pachiappan
Swami Vivekanand National Institute of Rehabilitation Training and Research (SVNIRTAR), IN
About Elumalai
The author has a Master's degree in Occupational Therapy (with a speciality in Rehabilitation) from Swami Vivekanand National Institute of Rehabilitation Training and Research under Utkal University, Bhuvaneshwar. His research interests include rehabilitation of persons with disabilities and sensory integration. He currently works as a Occupational Therapy Lecturer at the Composite Regional Centre of National Institute for Empowerment of Persons with Intellectual Disability in Andhra Pradesh state of India.
Purpose: The study aimed to compare the effects of balance training on balance confidence and its relationship with social participation among clients with stroke.
Method: A pre- and post- experimental group design was used. Stroke survivors who met the inclusion criteria were consecutively assigned to two groups (task-oriented and biofeedback). Participants in the task-oriented group received task-oriented activities for 20 minutes and the biofeedback group received intervention in correckta (equipment used for balance training) for 20 minutes, along with conventional occupational therapy - 5 sessions per week, for 12 weeks. Balance Confidence Scale was used for measuring balance confidence, and Frenchay Activities Index (FAI) was used to measure social participation. Statistical calculations were performed with SPSS version 16.0 package. Statistical tests were carried out with the level of significance set at p≤ 0.05.
Results: The findings suggest that both the biofeedback and task-oriented groups showed significant improvement in balance confidence and there was no statistically significant difference between the groups. There was a moderate to good relationship between balance confidence and social participation.
Conclusions and Implications: There is evidence that many stroke survivors have low balance confidence. Therapists should assess the balance confidence of their clients and encourage them to participate in these beneficial interventions.
Keywords: Stroke, balance confidence, confidence, social participation, biofeedback, task- oriented, correckta
