West Virginia Mountaineers Add Two To 2017 Recruiting Class, Turn Attention To Last Prospect Camp
Dana Holgorsen and company picked up two verbal commitments for the 2017 recruiting class on Sunday, and will now turn their attention to the final one-day prospect camp of the summer.

Welcome, By-Godders, to the Shotgun/Throwdown: WVU's best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor and daily distractions.
West Virginia University football coach Dana Holgorsen has announced that the Mountaineer football program has made a donation of equipment and apparel to the West Virginia Secondary School Activities Commission, as a part of the flood relief efforts in West Virginia.
An NCAA basketball tournament-style competition was held to select the greatest team in school history on a vote of the fans. As expected, it came down to the two teams which came closest to winning a national championship — Don Nehlen's 1988 undefeated team and Rich Rodriguez's 2007 juggernaut The fans went the only way they really could, proclaiming Nehlen's 1988 group the top team, a decision that Nehlen totally agrees with.
West Virginia added two pieces to its ever-growing 2017 recruiting class Sunday, and both were of the always-welcome "surprise" variety — Baltimore's St. Frances Academy defensive tackle Marcus Coleman and North Penn (Lansdale, Pennsylvania) athlete Ricky Johns.
One more camp. That's all that's left before West Virginia coaches turn their focus from recruiting toward the football season. This Saturday, the Mountaineers will host their final one-day prospect camp of the summer, and it's shaping up to be quite the event. While many top in-state products will be there, the focus may be on a handful of targets from Western Pennsylvania.
Around The Big 12:
ESPN wraps up their Big 12 regular season predictions with the Sooners having the horses to prevail in Bedlam again and West Virginia's improved defense surprising Baylor in week 14.
Around The NCAA:
Pat Fitzgerald's Northwestern Wildcats somehow won 10 games despite awful offense and special teams. Can they shore up their weaknesses enough to account for some inevitable regression to the mean in the luck/randomness department?
With the margins growing increasingly slim between successes and failures in both college football and in everyday life, Dan and Ty make a game show out of college football numbers on the newest episode of The Solid Verbal.

A couple with two young children wish to transform a duplex located in Rosemont-La-Petite-Patrie into their principal family residence. The project consists in reorganizing the original portion of the house and enlarging it with an extension in the yard while preserving the façade on the street as required by the city bylaws. Suspended above the dining room, a grey angular volume sheltering the master bedroom cantilevers out over the garden terrace. For more intimacy, a pair of steel blades unfolds in front of two large panes of glass over the garden façade filtering the views from the neighbours and modulating the natural light coming into the living spaces. Wishing to create an effect of depth on the garden façade, two tones of colours are used; one gray tone for the suspended volume covered in fibrocement boards and an other in copper for the windows, steel blades and the patio door in the recessed portion of the back wall. An angular frame like structure connects both immediate neighbours as a result of their differences in the protrusions of their constructions. Within the house, a staircase positioned directly under a generous skylight becomes the focal element of the house. Three entities compose this staircase; the first steps cladded in white marble, a wooden landing cladded in Russian plywood that continues through the family room to become a working surface and finally the circular stair painted white with perforated steel guards and steps in white birch. Integrated elements such as concealed doors and furniture combine to tones of whites; greys and blacks contribute in creating a warm and minimalist atmosphere throughout every room in the house.
This project is intended for a single-storey apartment in the new building. In the construction planning, the builder had limited most of the interior pattern, making it impossible to change too much. For this, we set a goal. We hoped to grant this common project a subject, to show the unique lifestyle of the client. Early in this project, we worked on the interior colour configuration, and hoped to figure out a colour scheme to coordinate the things of everyday use, such as the sofa, dining set, and some daily necessities. Later, we sorted out two main colour systems: grey and white. We used a hierarchy of grey in different textures and shades to harmonize the space, and used white to highlight the greys. Clean lines are another emphasis of this design, used to direct the vision. Regarding the configuration of the public space, we opened up one of the bedrooms for reserved use as a greenhouse. We also extended the flooring materials and used glass doors with clean lines to blur the boundaries, making the public space more open and more flexible. In the island area, we matched up different flooring materials. The flooring with bright materials formed a contrast with the rustic cement flooring. The combination of different materials made it possible to separate the spaces, but with an open vision. The island cabinet was made of stainless steel, another display of grey. The two woodgrain cement walls on the sides made the island cabinet a stable space.
The life and work of Ettore Sottsass is more relevant than ever, with exhibitions around the world and renewed collector interest in the Memphis movement. Now available in a new format, this book, packed with beautiful images taken from the extensive Sottsass archives and including drawings and sketches from the designer's countless sketchbooks, explores his entire career from the 1940s to the 2000s, covering everything from his architectural projects and product design to his jewellery, sculpture, and graphics.


This metal twin/twin bunk bed is the perfect addition for any modern bedroom setting. This versatile design features sturdy metal construction in Black finish, easy access guardrail and non reversible right facing built-in front ladder access to the top bed.
Basic, clean lines make a ultra present day look with the silver and black complete of this loft arrangement. Planned on account of capacity, this bunk bed can be combined with two fold drawers on tough casters.

The Best Tools For Automating API Documentation
By Xano | January 10, 2021
API documentation refers to the technical content that explains how a specific API works. Both human machine-readable, API documentation has two important purposes. It serves as a reliable reference source to describe API in detail. It is also a teaching tool to help users get acquainted with the workings of your API.
Think of API documentation as a user manual for your API. It should be thorough, up-to-date, and easy to understand. It is the one central source of information on how your API works, so good documentation has myriad benefits. It can reduce onboarding time, improve user satisfaction, and increase new user adoption rate.
There are many tools and software products available to help with API documentation. Below, we'll go over some of the best tools available to help you automate parts of API documentation, increasing efficiency and providing you with high-quality API docs.
A Note On Specification
Specifications refer to different standards and styles in which API can be described. The three most popular API specifications are:
RESTful API Modeling Language (RAML)
API Blueprint
All of the above options work well and come with their own benefits. However, OpenAPI is by far the most popular, and backed by major companies like Google and Microsoft.
Therefore, OpenAPI has the largest number of available API documentation tools. If you're unsure of which specification to use, OpenAPI is a good starting point. Many of the tools below use OpenAPI specification (OAS).
Swagger UI API Documentation
Swagger UI specializes in creating interactive API documentation. To use Swagger UI, you input an OAS doc, which Swagger UI then formats using HTML, JavaScript, and CCS. The end result is an easy-to-read document that users of all skill levels should be able to understand.
Swagger UI is fully customizable, so you can make any changes necessary to suit your project's specific needs. Swagger UI also offers a wide range of open source tools users can use to create the initial OAS document. The popularity of the tool is another big benefit. If you run into commun issues, it's very easy to find answers online with a quick Google search.
A collaborative platform, Postman generates machine-readable documentation for your API. Postman works by automatically pulling your sample requests, headers, code snippets, and so on, which it then uses to populate a documentation page.
Postman is a popular API documentation tool for a number of reasons. It works on Windows, Linux, MAC OS, and Chrome apps. In addition to generating documentation, Postman automatically updates your documentation in real time as changes are made.
Postman can also help with organization and workflow throughout your company. It comes with a convenient commenting feature, which allows you and your team to share feedback through comments and code reviews.
SwaggerHub API Documentation
SwaggerHub is Swagger UI's premium platform. It is a paid solution for API documentation. However, big companies that rely heavily on API may find it worth the investment as it has many features Swagger UI lacks.
Unlike Swagger UI, SwaggerHub comes with a complete API documentation toolset. There is no need to find additional software. It generates interactive documentation automatically during design. Further, it comes with collaborative tools – like permissions & user roles, real-time commenting, and issue tracking – to help with workflow.
ReDoc
This free and open-source documentation tool allows businesses to publish interactive API documentation online. ReDoc is user-friendly, with navigation bars and search boxes enabling users to quickly familiarize themselves with the platform.
ReDoc is also known for its flexibility, allowing you to create unique, attractive API documents to suit your business's specific needs. It can run on your browser, but it is also available as a Docker image, a React component, or command-line tool. Themes work on any screen or browser, and are customizable for things like font and color. You can also add in company logos.
OpenAPI Generator
OpenAPI Generation creates documentation for both OAS 2.0 and OAS 3.0, as well as server stubs and libraries. Much like ReDoc, it's well-known for being one of the most user-friendly API documentation tools. It's also praised for being highly extensible. It can support more than 50 client generators.
Similar to Swagger UI, OpenAPI Generator's popularity is a big plus in terms of community support. There's a large online community of experienced users. This can be a great resource if you run into the problems along the way.
The API Documentation Bottom Line
Great API documentation is an incredibly useful tool for your company. Automating API documentation keeps your docs accurate and up-to-date at all times, ensuring both clients and teammates have a quality resource at their disposal. There is no single tool that is right for every company, but reviewing the tools listed above should give you a starting point to determining the right course of action for your business.
If you have any further questions about API documentation, we at Xano are always here to help. With our no code backend development platform, your API Endpoints are automatically documented for you in OpenAPI (Swagger). This feature saves you valuable time and resources.

Its 1977 and troubled thirteen year-old Joe Shepard has been banished by his parents to spend the summer out at his Great-Uncle Amils ranch. The two of them will bond quickly over stories of baseballs glorious past. But when the heat of the summer days drive his uncle indoors, Joes restlessness will spark his sense of adventure. His explorations will take him beyond the borders of the ranchleading to a ghoulish discovery amongst the fence posts of the neighboring farm to the east. And then there is Emilythe beautiful and enigmatic girl he befriends. Her dress, her mannerismlook so out of place in the middle of a dusty apple orchard. Joe will discover why their friendship is truly unique, and in doing so, realize that the similarities between he and his uncle are many. Erik Jacobsen weaves an intricate story of intersecting subplots and fascinating characters spanning almost 90 years. The Apple Orchard is a lyrical tale of the continual struggle of good versus evil, of death and betrayal, and the loss of innocence. It is about the seemingly little insignificant choices made every dayhow action, as well as inaction, can bring the gravest of consequences.


Internet giant Google is the latest tech company to turn its hand to game streaming, doing so in partnership with "Assassin's Creed Odyssey" for a round of United States testing.
From Oct. 5, when glossy Ancient Greek action adventure "Assassin's Creed Odyssey" releases on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC, Google will launch its first public Project Stream test in partnership with game publisher Ubisoft.
A "limited number of participants" will be invited to play it free of charge, though only for the duration of Google's Project Stream test, once that time is up, game progress is wiped.
It's an invitation-only test co-ordinated through projectstream.google.com, and applications are open to those within the U.S. and aged 17 years or older.
There are a couple of other tech requirements that successful applicants will need to meet.
Project Stream runs through the Google Chrome internet browser on desktop (not the mobile edition), version 69 or up.
Participants will also need a personal Google account, a Ubisoft account (free through account.ubisoft.com), and a stable broadband internet connection, the Project Stream team is recommending a steady speed of 25 Mbps or higher. You can verify your connection speed through sites like speedtest.net or Google's own speed.googlefiber.net. Wired connections are better for faster data transfer.
Applicants will provide an email address during registration and it's there that the small cadre of participants will receive an invitation; such invitations will be sent out across a span of several weeks.
That invitation contains a one-time use code which is then activated through Project Stream itself, so cross-check official Google network addresses with the email's embedded link.

In addition to our stage program, we are active volunteers and strongly committed to networking and promoting New Circus in Germany. In Germany, unlike in other countries, contemporary circus was long not recognized as an independent art form and entirely excluded from public cultural funding. Only in the last years have there been positive developments and changes in this regard, yet the deficit of the last decades has led to a serious imbalance in comparison to other forms of art. German players in the circus scene are still confronted with the fundamental question of how to finance and realize their projects.
Through an extensive national and international network, memberships and cooperation, we contribute to the visibility and further establishment of New Circus as an independent art form and advocate for a differentiated discussion of New Circus – not least on the level of cultural policy.
We are ….
a member of the Bundesverband Zeitgenössischer Zirkus (BUZZ) ), where we are particularly active in the areas of cultural-political networking, the organizer forum, the residency program Zirkus ON and the Städtepool Berlin. BUZZ is an active member of the Alliance of the Free Arts und the Federal Association of Free Performing Arts.
part of the Landesverbands freie darstellende Künste Berlin (LAFT).
member of the German Stage Association (Deutscher Bühnenverein).
member of the European Network for Circus and Street Arts Circostrada.
co-authors of the Manifesto for Contemporary Circus.
member of INTOURA, the association of tourist attractions in Berlin.
part of the sector committee of the IHK Creative Industries
initiator and co-leader of a transnational Commissioning Circus Initiative
initiator of a mentoring program in cooperation with the Staatlichen Artistenschule Berlin. This program aims to provide young artists with professional production knowledge and an insight into the working world of professional artists.
As of April 2021, our Artistic Director Anke Politz was also appointed to the Board of Trustees of the Fonds Darstellende Künste. Previously, Anke Politz was already active for the Fund as a juror for the #TakeAction funding program. Furthermore, Anke Politz is a jury member for the inaugural International Circus Awards.
In addition, Anke Politz and the Chamäleon team were honoured by the Aktionsbündnis Darstellende Künste as Bühnenheldin 2020 (Stage Hero 2020) for "extraordinary commitment to the artists of the venue and the independent scene during the Corona crisis."
Die Vielen
As a theatre, creative centre and community, we see it as our social duty to practice diversity and tolerance and to actively oppose racism and discrimination. We are a member of the Berlin chapter of DIE VIELEN and want to demonstrate our clear commitment to artistic freedom as well as to an open, tolerant and democratically constituted society that appreciates the potential of diversity and excludes no one.
Our solidarity is with all those who are committed to the freedom of art and the freedom of thought. We strongly oppose any propagandistic or denigrating hostilities against stages, museums and other cultural producers and mediators.
The Berlin Statement of DIE VIELEN
Circus Sonnenstich
Since a joint charity gala in 2013, Chamäleon and Circus Sonnenstich have enjoyed a long friendship and regularly realize projects together. Circus Sonnenstich is part of the Zentrums für Bewegte Kunst e.V. (ZBK), an artistic project with social responsibility for an inclusive society. The ZBK offers a multitude of people with trisomy 21 or other learning difficulties the space and the platform to be visible as radiant personalities and competent circus trainers at the very center of society. The artists give valuable and thought-provoking impulses for an inclusive society and for new forms and structures of social and artistic coexistence.

How to Manage Information Systems Project?
What If Elite Colleges Switched To A Lottery For Admissions?
Why is this topic important?
Technologies of the last five years have drastically changed and reshaped how we live and learn. The net of these changes, according to the Boston Consulting Group, is that consumers are reacting faster and demanding more. They now expect instant access to information, frequent updates, and flawless performance—and not just inside the space of technology itself—but also the products they interact with. To keep up with consumer expectations, the most successful companies have learned to change the way they do business. They've adopted product development approaches that shorten the lifecycle, thereby allowing these businesses to supplement their major product launches with frequent, iterative updates.
This abbreviated, incremental approach to product development is forcing training organizations to rethink how they develop future learning solutions that support said business systems. Traditional training development methodologies such as Instructional System Design (ISD) typically result in increased administrative overhead, long development lifecycles, and large learning solutions that are rarely updated. Agile, however, provides training developers with the opportunity to minimize paperwork, shorten development timelines, and provide frequent, timely updates to learning solutions.
Businesses that employ the Agile approach to product development are experiencing increased customer satisfaction, highly engaged employees, greater visibility into the process of product releases, improved ability to address changes, and even higher quality products. And now, training organizations that employ Agile can realize these same benefits.
What can you achieve with this book?
This book can help transform your training development methodology into one that allows you to rapidly respond to ever-changing business needs. It will teach you how to deliver learning solutions that are both timely and effective. It will introduce you to a flexible development technique, one that allows you to keep pace with fast-changing business conditions. It will show you how to achieve better collaboration with your business partners. It will help you create empowered, self-organizing, cross-functional teams that can distill large training efforts into smaller components, which can then be developed and delivered over multiple iterations. Finally, this book will help you assess if the organizational structure of your training department is currently optimized to support the needs of your company.
This book is organized into three sections. Section One provides a background of the Agile methodology. It gives a brief history of this unique approach to development and makes the case for why learning organizations should adapt this technique. Section Two walks you through the Agile methodology as applied to training and development, providing a step-by-step approach to implementation. Section Three is a case study on how the customer training organization of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) successfully implemented the Agile method as their approach to training development.
In October 2007 I co-authored an article for Training Industry Inc. titled The Training Value Gap. My thesis was that delivering small nuggets of learning incrementally rather than waiting until the entire learning program was complete, allowed learners to quickly absorb at least some of the required knowledge and skills, and, as a result, rapidly translate those skills into incremental performance improvements. This, in turn, helps the organization reap the benefits of its employees' improved knowledge and skill-sets much earlier than if it would have delayed training.
When Bobbi Edwards and I wrote that article seven years ago, we had never heard of Agile. Even though we had our own theory regarding a new approach to designing learning solutions, we didn't (as yet) have a methodology to support it. Over the years, my teams had attempted to accomplish this fresh approach to learning solutions through a variety of waterfall development approaches, including Six Sigma. It wasn't until the organizations that I managed began using Agile that we realized: what if we leveraged this iterative, incremental approach to learning program design, development, and deployment—all in a sustained, proactive manner?
For those not familiar with Agile and how this approach to product development has changed our everyday lives, consider how you currently receive updates to your smartphone apps or your personal computer software. Chances are you frequently receive small functionality updates to these applications, right? It's a stark contrast to the mindset of just a few years ago when software applications underwent major rewrites every eighteen to twenty-four months. Delivering incremental software fixes and functionality now allows customers to receive value faster and more frequently (as opposed to waiting up to two years for all of the desired functionalities to be built into a new release!).

Sia Criticized for Casting Maddie Ziegler as Autistic Lead in New Film
Maddie Ziegler in Sia's 'Music' (Still via YouTube)
After revealing the first teaser trailer for her forthcoming directorial debut, Music, Sia has received backlash over casting a neurotypical actress as the autistic lead character.
The film revolves around the character of Music, a young girl with nonverbal autism, who finds herself in the care of her older half-sister, the newly sober Zu (Kate Hudson). However, many people were not happy with Sia's decision to cast her longtime collaborator Maddie Ziegler as Music rather than an autistic actress.
Responding to critics on Twitter, Sia wrote: "I actually tried working with a beautiful young girl non verbal on the spectrum and she found it unpleasant and stressful. So that's why I cast Maddie." In a separate tweet, she added that "casting someone at her level of functioning was cruel, not kind, so I made the executive decision that we would do our best to lovingly represent the community."
She also stated that she "cast thirteen neuroatypical people, three trans folk, and not as fucking prostitutes or drug addicts but as doctors, nurses and singers. Fucking sad nobody's even seen the dang movie. My heart has always been in the right place."
However, several autistic actors asserted that they were available and willing to work on the project, and that they were subsequently ignored. Sia responded to one such actor by belittling them, saying, "maybe you're just a bad actor"
You can check out the trailer for Music and read some of the back-and-forth below. Earlier this week, Sia announced a new album accompanying the film titled Music – Songs From and Inspired by the Motion Picture and shared a new song, 'Hey Boy'.

I agree. I've never referred to music as disabled. Special abilities is what I've always said, and casting someone at her level of functioning was cruel, not kind, so I made the executive decision that we would do our best to lovingly represent the community.
I don't believe I've ever referred to autism and suffering in the same sentence. I have said, flourishing or suffering depending on where you are on the spectrum, but obviously this was very dear to my heart.
I'm sorry we were never introduced. My character was pretty low functioning and after attempting a few actors on the spectrum they suggested I use Maddie.
Mocking is the very last thing either Maddie or I wanted to be so misunderstood. Please watch it before you judge it.
I'm so sad and confused that you think I didn't research and utilize my friends on the spectrum! So many assumptions. I hope you love the film. It's beautiful.
I'm so confused. The character is based completely on my neuro atypical friend. He found it too stressful being non verbal, and I made this movie with nothing but love for him and his mother.
I believe this movie is beautiful, Will create more good than harm and if I'm wrong I'll pay for it for the rest of my life.
Maybe you're just a bad actor.
Duh. I spent three fucking years researching, I think that's why I'm so fucking bummed.
I cast thirteen neuroatypical people, three trans folk, and not as fucking prostitutes or drug addicts but s as doctors, nurses and singers. Fucking sad nobody's even seen the dang movie. My heart has always been in the right place.
Grrrrrrrrrr. Fuckity fuck why don't you watch my film before you judge it? FURY.
The movie is both a love letter to caregivers and to the autism community. I have my own unique view of the community, and felt it is underrepresented and compelled to make it. If that makes me a shit I'm a shit, but my intentions are awesome.


Here I have two projects. They are both so small I think they should be worth one credit together. Comment if you think they should be one credit each or one credit together.
The First one is testing the Bradly effect. I wanted to see if people are more likely to tell the truth if they are anonymous. I made graphs comparing the amounts from speaking face to face to the online survey.Here I have two graphs showing the different results I got.
The second one is a list of ways to get random numbers.
8/10. How big is your list? How many people did you interview in person? Was it large enough to make a valid comparison to the online survey results? I would say count them as one.
This is a fun idea. I think that you should evaluate your effert to determine the creadit for your projects. If you put a lot of time and effort into both of them, then they could count for more "points.". If you only spend a few minutes and hardly any effort, then they should count as one credit together.
I would like to get more information on the Bradley Effect project, like what questions did you ask?
I give it an 8/10 as counting for one project. Interesting idea.


Utah County alumni were invited to learn more about the latest on the Arab Spring in Egypt and the region from Maggie Nassif, managing director, BYU National Middle East Language Resource Center. The event was scheduled just days after Nassif returned from a summer visit to her native country; she is currently in Egypt on a Fulbright award.
Maggie Nassif is currently managing director of the National Middle East Language Resource Center at BYU. Nassif has taught literature, women studies, and business culture and has held several executive positions, including director of the Arabic Summer MBA Program for the Wharton School of Business/Lauder Institute. Her research interest is in the intersection of pop culture, women's issues, material culture, and consumerism. Recently, she published an article that explored the effect of outsourcing jobs to China and India on U.S. education in the Journal for Global Competitiveness and a forthcoming essay "Redefining the Arab Yuppy," published in the Encyclopedia for Women in Islamic Cultures, on the strategies employed by advertising campaigns to target female consumers in the Middle East. While living in Cairo, she worked for the British International School, an affiliate of the British Embassy, and as a freelance reporter for Cairo's Cultural and Entertainment Guide.

Learning to effectively market one's freelance business is a matter of trial and error. It's one of the most difficult (and thankless) aspects of the job, but a necessary one. I love writing but I can't afford to neglect reaching out to other businesses to ensure a stream of clients. There is no guarantee of return, but in order to earn money a lot of time and effort must go into it. But there is another equation to freelancers growing their businesses, and that is you – dear client. You can help us get a leg up.
Facebook is making it harder for businesses to get noticed organically. We used to rely on promoting relevant services to businesses just like yours. Facebook's move to return to its roots of social media has affected smaller businesses without the resources. Businesses still search for freelancers on Facebook and other social media (I had a client reach out to me recently), but to get noticed we have to have a high stock value and that comes with ratings and recommendations on their pages. The more positive feedback a small business has, the more likely it is to be noticed and promoted to the right people.
Had a good experience with a freelancer? Great, then tell other people about it. Your clients, friends, contacts are going to need business services at some point – be it photography, marketing, writing, website building… the list goes on. The best thing you can do for our business is to remember the great service we provided for you and recommend us to those people when the time comes. This is free advertising for us and reinforces the strong working relationship we might already have. When I started on Upwork I had nobody to recommend me but now, I can think of at least five past and current clients who came to me purely through word of mouth recommendation.
You might be surprised how few clients credit freelancers. That's fine; it's your right to use that content under license as you see fit. However, doing so means we are limited in what we can present to other clients if they ask for example. Not all clients do, but some insist on it before embarking on work. I try to avoid linking or referring to uncredited content where possible but I always reserve the right to do so – which will always been in private conversation, not on my public forums. The more work we can refer to produced for past clients, the easier we can build our businesses.

Four people were arrested after leading police on a high-speed chase from D.C. into Prince George's County on Thursday night.
Around 9:45 p.m., a robbery at knifepoint was reported in the 300 block of E Street NE, near Union Station.
D.C. and Park Police chased the suspects into Prince George's County. They were cornered at Radcliffe Drive and Kenilworth Avenue in College Park, almost 20 minutes from where the robbery occurred.


Our startup DNA keeps us Agile and Lean and is the reason for our lightning speed in delivering technology and products. We have now been through couple of startups, 50+ products and accelerated them from an idea to series A.
We are huge evangelists of Lean Startup and Agile way of working. The infographic would explain you how we work with startups to make sure that we always build products that customers really want and avoid expensive mistakes.
How we build successful products?
We would coach you on how to validate the problem you are solving, the customer you are solving the problem for and the solution you want to build using different customer development methods - both non-digital and digital. We will also teach you how to do product development using SCRUM.
We know running a startup is hard and you are probably bootstrapping and cash flow is low. Most of the cash is spent on technology and marketing. For this reason we have come with an accelerator model where we help you with all the steps mentioned above. In return, you pay us in some cash (to cover the actual cost of our developers) and equity (which ranges from 5 – 15% based on commitment required).
To work on this model we select 2 startups every quarter. Selection is based on team and how much validation has already been done for the idea.


Washington – The flag-waving, horn-honking crowd that converged at the White House Sunday night was brimming with unrestrained joy, unmitigated patriotism and a sense of unlimited possibility — which meant Osama bin Laden had suffered not only death but defeat as well.
Thousands had come to witness and celebrate history. Many, perhaps most, were college students who had been in elementary school when deluded fanatics, indoctrinated and dispatched by bin Laden, crashed airliners into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field near Shanksville, Pa. But there were also older men and women who had lived through that unforgettable day as adults. Some brought young children for whom Sept. 11, 2001, would never be more than an answer on a history test.
John Greenfield rode his bike to the White House; he said he lives just 10 blocks away. He grew up in Minnesota and was in the seventh grade when 9/11 happened. Now he works as a consultant here, and he said he came to join the crowd because Sunday night felt like "a turning point for the country." We've been stuck in gridlock, he said, and maybe now we can find a way to break free.
I kept hearing that theme of turning a page. In a sense, we had been prisoners of bin Laden. Now we're free.
For me, news of bin Laden's death brought back visceral memories of the Tuesday morning that changed the world — and changed all our lives. Once again, I could feel the shock, the pain, the anger. I could feel the emptiness.
I was then an editor at The Washington Post, so of course I had work to do. In the newsroom, we watched in stunned disbelief as the towers came down. There was relief at hearing that my wife and two sons had made it home from work and school safely; shock at the unimaginable loss of innocent life; adrenaline-fueled exhilaration at the challenge of marshaling resources to cover a story of incomprehensible size and scope.
That Saturday, my first son was to begin his freshman year at the University of Chicago. Commercial air traffic was grounded, so we had to go by car. I'll never forget the helplessness I felt as I left him in a new and unfamiliar place, halfway across the country, and then made the long, lonely drive home. There was nothing on the radio but continuing coverage of the terrorist attacks. Then, finally, a piece of music: Conductor Leonard Slatkin was leading the BBC Symphony Orchestra in a commemorative performance of Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings," one of the saddest and most elegiac pieces of music I've ever heard. I had to take the next exit and pull over. I couldn't see through my tears.
That was how it began. On Sunday night, in the emotional sense, it ended.
There will be more terrorism. Al-Qaeda is not dead, and in fact may redouble its efforts at mayhem. But there has been a definitive change. Osama bin Laden was more than a piece of unfinished business. He was a constant, if rarely acknowledged, presence in our lives. He was there when we took off our shoes at the airport, there when we drove past the Pentagon, there when we saw a picture of the New York skyline.
As long as bin Laden remained at large and unaccountable, he retained the power he had so cruelly usurped on 9/11. On Sunday, those who gathered at the White House were celebrating our psychological liberation.
The changes in our lives will endure, but the man responsible for those changes is gone at last.


Conversations at Woodford Folk Festival turned solemn when Dr Anne Poelina and Dr Barry Traill discussed the challenges of gaining long-term protection for the Kimberley Region in Western Australia.
Despite enormous conservation gains over the past decade in the region, it is a place still familiar with detrimental development proposals.
Traditional land owners and conservationists are concerned the cultural and environmental values of the 733-kilometre-long Fitzroy River and its catchment holds are under threat.
One proposal concerning communities is a massive dam and irrigation system. This plan includes the clearing of land and the taking of billions of litres of water from the river.
Nyikina Warrwa Traditional Custodian and Chair Martuwarra Fitzroy River Council, Dr Anne Poelina, said this plan could become a nightmare for everyone.
"We need to learn from what happened with the Murray Darling basin," Dr Poelina said.
Dr Poelina said the future of the Fitzroy River needs to be treated with collective wisdom to ensure any development is sustainable, with environmental and cultural values put first.
"The law is in the land," she said.
"We are not above nature. We need to develop an Earth-centred governance model. We are pro-development when it cares for the Earth, nature and people.
"The traditional ecology knowledge, or Indigenous science, needs to be at the forefront. We have a wisdom that's ready to be shared with the world.
Leading Australian environmental advocate and Director of Pew Charitable Trusts, Dr Barry Traill, said although a large portion of the area has been listed as a National Heritage site since 2011, he wants it listed as a World Heritage site for further protection.
"The great stretch of grass and trees in the monsoon climate is just as beautiful and diverse as the Great Barrier Reef," he said.
"Being the last area invaded and settled by Europeans, the region has a relatively light touch of colonization.


The shank shot is perhaps one of the most destructive and frustrating shots in golf.
A shank occurs when the ball is hit out of the heel or the hosel of the golf club. The ball tends to fly out sharply to the right (for the right-handed golfer) and also quite low.
Because it flies quite low, a shank shot can also travel a fair distance – usually into the right hand rough or an adjacent fairway.
In this area of the site, we'll look at what causes shanked golf shots, as well as some great drills for eradicating shanks from your game completely.
What Causes The Golf Shank Shot?
The short video below covers the common causes of shank shots. Or you can skip beneath the video and head straight to some drills for curing golf shank shots.
Setting up too close to the golf ball will increase the chances of a shank shot. Double check that you're the correct distance away from the ball – the end of the club should rest about an inch above your knee cap (click here for a full explanation).
If you're body weight is too much on either your heels or toes it will increase the likelihood of a shank. So keep yourself balanced – your bodyweight should be 50/50 left and right and 50/50 front and back.
Probably the major cause of the shank shot is similar to what causes a slice – the golf club comes over the top or from outside the line of the golf ball. When this happens the club face chops across the ball and actually delivers the heel into the ball first. See the anti-slice section for more details.

Q: Lotus notes: change view selection formula by script I'm trying to change view selection formula by script with this selection formula:
formula = "SELECT (@Modified = [" & Left(doc1.LastModified,10) & "])  &  form = ["& Cstr(doc1.form(0)) &"]"

But when I try to execute it Notes retrive me the following error:

Notes error: Unknown [KeyWord] for @Function (SELECT (@Modified = [03/02/2015]) & form=[myform])

A: You should use quotes for form instead of square brackets.
Here is example:
formula$ = {SELECT (@Modified = [} & Left(doc1.LastModified,10) & {]) & form = "} & doc1.form(0) & {"}

Which generate this string:
SELECT (@Modified = [03/02/2015]) & form = "myform"

A Gestalt Approach to the Self as Process
Do I exist? Who is the entity that is writing these words? What is the I that I bring to the Gestalt Centre each week?
I know I have a body, but it's not necessarily me. I identify with it strongly for sure. There has been enough consistency in the way it appears (same sex) and operates (no accidents) that I feel in some sense I am my body and yet it's possible to imagine 'me' – or what I believe to be me – could be transported elsewhere and still exist, as a large-beetle, robot, or potentially – and testing the paradoxical theory of change to its limits – even on a floppy disk. And this despite knowing the body is an intelligence of its own, heavily intertwined with the brain.
I also know that modern neuroscience has proven no single centre of the brain or master-controller exists. There is no point where it all comes together.
Habits, for example, are executed from neural networks that exist in the basal ganglia, an older more primitive part of the brain stem (Duhigg, 2012). Language, movement, breathing all operate from different parts of the brain. The later most patently not operating under conscious control – I cannot choose not to breath, at least not for long. But the millions of computations needed to make me move or make decisions also exist outside of my awareness. Moreover, reflex actions short-circuit the brain, something I was reminded of when I recently watched my body autonomously save me from a fall to the ground.
Or there is the other time this semi- autonomous entity my conscious seems to inhabit reached out and grabbed a falling vase with such a speed and force I am still shocked at it's temerity.
And then there's language, where experiments on split brain patients show that the right half of the brain can be instructed to do something like get up and walk, leaving the left part of brain, which, since the link between to two hemispheres is cut, is unaware of the initial instruction, to construct an answer in unknowing dishonesty. All suggesting the function of language is to justify behaviour that originates in other parts of the brain to others (Wright, 1994).
So perhaps I should drop the pronoun.
What is I after all but a mental state, a fleeting image of a symbol that floats across the mind.
Let this writing be by energy.
Energy unfortunately knows, however, that even if no single-centre-of-self exists, a sense of self, a sense of agency, can arise through a nested hierarchy, where the higher functions of self, such as self-consciousness, are produced by, and interdependent on, lower functions, such as basic environmental awareness (Baggini, 2011).
Energy enters the body as chemicals, electricity, light, or sounds. We only sense what we are capable of detecting through our nervous system, constructing models of the external world from noisy signals and missing information, some of which leaves a lasting impression in memory.
These images of past events give a sense of continuity over time. I know with some certainty, this body, this brain experienced things in a specific place and time, even if my current representation of that time is fragmented, incomplete and inaccurate. Furthermore, through constructive use of memory I am able to create images of what this body or brain might do and how it might feel in years or decades hence. Even if there are enough known biases and inaccuracies in these projections (Gilbert, 2006) that make this future body and brain unlikely to be grateful for today's efforts.
Energy is not of the past or future. Energy exists in the present. Consciousness thus emerges in the here and now. Through contact sensory input from the environment is translated into neurological signals, which enter a network of thousand of millions of conscious moments from which self-awareness is generated. In this sense the self is emergent: bundles of sensations, perceptions and thoughts piled on top of one another, different in each environment (Philipson, 2009).
Yet, as we have just seen, one of the contacts we have is with our own memory, which always intrudes conscious awareness. Thus the here and now self, is always engaging with a autobiographical narrative and in doing so experiencing oneself as existing over time.
What am I then? What I see, hear and experience of the world are mental constructs generated by the brain from corrupted data it receives from the external world. From trillions of neural connections and such complex calculations that makes the prospect of artificial intelligence a still distant prospect, the brain generates the sense that I act and I am in control. But the calculations and decisions are made outside of awareness, I make decisions, but it's not the I that I think it is making the decisions. My concept of myself is a illusion. Despairing enough to take one's own life, perhaps, if it where clearer who would be taking life from who.
Even memory is slippery. It is selective and altered each time it is retrieved and experienced. Thus, not only do I choose to form memories that fit with my sense of self, I also experience memories differently depending on the environment at the time. (Hood, 2011).
The Gestalt Approach
"Let us call the 'self' the system of contact at any moment" wrote Perls, Hefferline and Goodman (1951). The "self is flexibly various", "it is the system of responses", "[it] is the contact boundary at work, its activity is forming figure and ground." (pg. 284).
In Gestalt the self is an organizing process, which is constantly changing. It is a person's contact and response with the environment. It is the assimilation and growth that results from contact.
The individual organises his entire environment – figure and ground – in terms of both the prevailing environment and his own dominant interests in that environment. The field is the coexisting, mutually interdependent factors of a person and his environment. A person's behaviour can only be understood holistically, in terms of his interdependence with his environment because his social, historical, cultural field is intrinsic to him.
In organising the field a person creates the meanings which they endow it. Phenomenologically they form meaningful perceptions of objects through selective attention to certain stimuli over others.
The fundamental characteristics of the self is gestalt formation and destruction. The self works for the making and finishing of gestalts. It's concern is process and is orientated toward health, which is the satisfactory formation and destruction of gestalts.
It is a unitary concept engaging our physical, emotional and cognitive aspects, forming at the part when the field begins to separate into discrete parts of difference, the part at which self and other meet. The boundary is not the the part between the self and other, it is of both parts formed on their contact. There is no previously existing 'I' to do the experiencing. The only self that exists is the one in the process of contacting the environment.
The Self Functions: Id and Ego
Depending on the requirement of the situation and our ability to act in accord with them three different aspects of the self are readily and regularly recognizable. These three functions are the different ways we experience ourselves as we live our lives in contact with our environment.
As figures develop the system of contact varies. Sometime we feel ourselves as agents. These are the ego function of self. The self in which we feel we are acting on the environment. The ego functions are expressed in an active voice. I choose, decide, insist. "It is deliberative, active in mode, sensorically alert and motorically aggressive, and conscious of itself as isolated from its situation." (Perls et all, 1951, pg. 379).
The id function is our natural intuitions and impulses. We feel ourself acted upon and responsive to the environment. All feelings, for example, are experienced this way. The id function is expressed in a passive voice. I felt, I was moved. It is implicit that we had little control. "The Id then appears as passive, scattered and irrational; its contents are hallucinatory and the body looms large." (Perls et all, 1951, pg. 381).
Both the id and the ego, which together the middle functions seem to represent (Latner, 1973) exist in the moment each mediated by the environment, by contact, by the places of figure formation. The self is the system of creative adjustments, the situation is always changing, new equilibriums always sort.
The Gestalt cycle of contact is thus the process of selfing – of the creation of the self. The id function becomes aware of all that it can sense. It is a collection of potential figures (Mann, 2010). The self is co-creation with "other," where the ego function focusses attention, identifies with a figure and alienates the ground. The ego thus chooses, identifying a 'I' that is experiencing and the other, that which is experienced. "I become myself in relation to that aspect of otherness that I now make figural." (Philipson, 2011). This is the contact boundary where we meet and withdraw from our environment. It is a ever changing fluid place, which we experience 'me' in relation to 'not me'. A place where we impact and act on the world and a place where we can, with other sentient beings, create emergent acts of increased complexity. Dancing, jazz and civilizations.
Reflections on Self as Process
Reflecting on my personal experience I am aware that group work is a co-creational field event such that the field induces feelings and desire to say certain things. My ego function then plays an active role in deciding whether to act on these impulses or not. In such a manner, things, which I or others say or do are not necessarily of the self as a single unitary organism, but of a self which is also out there existing as part of the field.
I am aware of tendency to deflect from contact when passive feelings are ones that I do not want to responsibly own. I am aware too of how different I am in different situations and of how much the middle function (id and ego) cause behaviour. I notice, for example, facial expressions happening, words forming and feelings arising, but cannot locate a choice to have them. The only choice I am aware of seems to be the ego function deciding as to what to do in certain situations and how to relate to the id (and personality, see below) function.
But that's not all. I am aware of a tendency to become confluent with other people's pain, experiencing it as my own. Desensitising, shutting down contact by motoric retroflecting, meaning the details of others' experiences are missed. Since people's pain is passively experienced as my own (confluence) I see it as a matter of my id function, although the desensitisation and retroflection are likely the result of the ego function. From the id function projection also arises. For example, I passively feel a sense of guilt at being unable to give my fullest to my day job (is there an active introject there too?), and I then project that guilt out onto my colleagues assuming that, at some level, they must be angry at my weakened work ethic.
On the subject of introjects, I am aware of thoughts that passively occur to me that I do not like. In some contact environments they are negative toward a person with whom my feelings toward are actually warm and loving. I presume this is mostly because I passively feel full of excitement and are the result of choosing to retroflect when no other healthy outlet for this excitement is met. They could also, however, be due to introjects that I am not yet aware of. I take responsibility for these experiences, but recognise that they happen to me. The quality of relating to these thoughts, agreeing or disagreeing with them, acting or not acting upon, them is more important. It is hoped with increased awareness of my distortions to contact they can be made more healthy and less figural.
Also, since thought is language and cannot but be memory, is it not the third mode of functioning: personality? And since PHG (1951) wrote that a healthy person "does not have much personality" (pg. 427), does this mean the role of thought is diminished. If so, we see how Gestalt concepts of self and personalty overlap with those of the worlds major religions, Buddhism and Taoism.
Personality: The Third Self Function
Latner (1973) refers to character and personality as the same thing and reading PHG they do seem to be used similarly. At the time of writing, most analysts practised analysing the structure of observed behaviour along the lines of Character analysis, as first systematically developed by Reich, where character was seen as " a sort of abnormality, a kind of mechanization of a particular way of reaction, rather similar to an obsessional symptom." (Becker, 1973).
PHG's approach seems "to bridge therapy of the actual situation with therapist's concepts." (Perls et all, 1951, pg. 237), where "characters and their mechanisms [are] not types of persons, but taken as a whole a description of the neurotic 'ego' in process." (Perls et all, 1951, pg. 448). Thus neurotic confluence is linked to hysteria and regression, introjection to masochism, projection to fantasy, retroflection to active sadism and busyness, and egotism to self-conceit and narcissism. (Perls et all, 1950, pg. 457-8).
Personality is the third function of self where an individual relates to the creative images of the past and future we assemble from memory in our mind. It occurs at the boundary we become aware of ourself as a conscious entity. These memories give us a framework of attitudes and beliefs we have about the world. At this boundary are multiple personalty figures we can choose and identity with, alienating others to the ground. "Personality is the created figure that the self becomes and assimilates to the organism, uniting it with results of the previous growth.", wrote PHG (1951), in the neurotic individual, personalty "consists of a number of mistaken concepts of oneself, introjects, ideals, masks, etc." (pg 382.)
The definition of unhealthy in gestalt is a person who is unable to close gestalt, thus rigid character / personalty types result when gestalt are fixed, when too much unfinished business is carried over from the past. Physiologically this may manifest itself as character / body armouring. (Clarkson, 1989). Authentic behaviour comes openly when a figure is drawn from what we freely prefer. Thus Perl's wrote "the most creative, richest person has no character."
The personalty function then is the mode which paradoxically gives us both greatest sense of self, but is also the least healthy. In bringing mental processes to the fore of awareness and comparing present to past experiences and future possibilities it diminished the power and uniqueness of the present.
This is the concept of creative indifference, the organism at the fertile void, open to what will come. All this seems to link closely with Buddhist and Taoist thought which sees the self as impermanent, changing from moment to moment existing in the here and now, but also emphasises detachment as a way of living. Indeed creative indifference seems to loosely correlate with the idea of detachment, as does the void seem to with ideas of the 'silence', the 'space', the 'nothing.'
While complete detachment from the world or a total mitigation of the personality function would be perhaps undesirable, disallowing our ability to gain a sense of continuity that makes relationship and productive endeavours meaningful, Gestalt, Classical Psychoanalysis and Buddhism, all seem to agree, individuals can become too fixed in their identifications, closing off possibilities and remaining in familiar areas even when it is unhealthy to do so.
Finding the Authentic Self
As well as Psychoanalysis and Buddhism, PHG were influenced by the existentialist tradition of Kirkegard, Heidegger, Buber and Tillich. (Clarkson and Mackewn, 1993).
In Gestalt Therapy Verbatim (1969) Perls' perceived the neurotic structure as a thick edifice built up of four layers. The first two layers are the everyday layers, the tactic the child learns to get along in society by the facile use of words to wind ready approval and to placate others and move along with them. The third layer is the 'impasse' that covers our feeling of being empty and lost. The very feeling we try to banish by building up our character defenses. Underneath this layer is the forth the fear-of-death layer, the layer of our true and basic animal anxieties. Only when we explode this forth layer do we get to the layer that we might call our 'authentic' self.
Clarkson and Mackewn (1993) say this seems to be a departure form PHG in that the self appears reified, but perhaps one way to link the two is to see all the outer, non-authentic layers as originating from fixed gestalts.
Note that the last layer, fear-of-death, can arise only from memory. The knowledge that at some point we will die. The breaking through of the forth layer, also corresponds with the Buddhist notion of letting go of a attachment to life (accepting the impermanence of all things) .
The Artist of Life
For me writing this now. I am aware that the self is a illusion, a partial construct, it emerges from a complex interplay of neurological processes of which I unaware.
I know, too, that I have traits that are both passive, in that they result from genes, upbringing and experience, and active, in being a set of dispositions that I have because I work to develop them. Even here, though, situational factors are often better predictors of behaviour than personal factors. So while personalty is not a myth, i.e. I show measurable predictability over time, it does vary more according to the situation than is generally assumed. Moreover, at least a good portion of my personality I may work actively to create. I do not so much as promise to be a good husband, but to constantly create myself as one.
More consequentially, I accept that I don't so much as exist in the field, but emerge out of it (Philipson, 2006). My consciousness arises through complex feedback loops, including neurons that mirror the feelings of others, which brings into question "one person psychology". (Stern, 2004). I'm still different form others, but the difference is less.
And I emerge in the present moment. Not to face my existential angst would be to be inauthentic. Selfing as I am now, I creatively make an association between personality and vanity and I feel satisfied. I have written this paper through the gathering of the elements of the field, in spontaneity, with directnesses, awareness and skill all in the service of personal growth. I have done this in process – selfing – in full contact with my environment. I contact, therefore I am.

Morro da Nova Cintra é um bairro situado na região dos morros da cidade brasileira de Santos, no estado de São Paulo.

O bairro, que teria recebido seu nome em homenagem à cidade de Sintra, em Portugal devido à semelhança topográfica entre os dois locais, tem uma população de cerca de 7000 pessoas, de acordo com o Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística. Conta com uma atração turística, a Lagoa da Saudade, para onde a prefeitura local trouxe uma grande população de carpas e construiu decks para a população.

A ocupação do morro remonta ao início da colonização portuguesa, quando da passagem de Martim Afonso de Sousa pela região. João dos Passos, um dos integrantes da esquadra lusa, teria se interessado então por criar um núcleo agrícola no planalto existente no topo do morro, que, com uma lagoa e uma cachoeira, oferecia condições extremamente propícias para o plantio. Mudas de cana-de-açúcar foram trazidas da ilha da Madeira, e o próprio Martim Afonso de Sousa teria organizado a construção de um engenho d'água no local, com uma capela dedicada a São Jorge - o Engenho dos Erasmos, cujas ruínas ainda existem até hoje, a oeste do morro.

This week at ABC Wednesday, H gets the spotlight.
H is for Dianna Hardy, whose words hit the right note for speaking out.
Check here to see what others around the world did for H.
Literally so true ... but if one thinks longer about these words, they behold a world of possibilities of their own.
I loved looking through these posts. H is also for heartfelt.
one finds inspiration in diverse places!


That's because legislators are still debating all sorts of rules concerning whether Uber cars have to display visible signs, if they have to report accidents or when people have to take over, and if they can be prohibited near schools.
One big reason for considering Pittsburgh as the proposed center for a vehicle hub is the presence of Carnegie Mellon University, which has been working on autonomous driving technology for several decades. The mayor also has been wooed by the idea of a new high-tech center opening in the struggling rust-belt city that's been losing business.
If it works, the university and the city could become a center of advanced manufacturing. At least initially, Uber will be using Ford Fusions and Volvos fitted with the appropriate controls and devices (like radar and GPSs). Of course, some of that technology is built into the Fusions already, such as backup cameras.
Uber has also worked with state regulators on what restrictions can/should be added — but that hasn't stopped it from deliberately starting ahead of rules being enacted. That's the forgiveness/permission thing.
The self-driving taxis will be limited to certain Uber patrons initially, and they will have to opt-in to joining; so, no empty cars will suddenly be showing up to pick up passengers. There will probably be less freaking out that way.
At least in the beginning, there will be two Uber employees in each car, one to take over if needed, one to monitor the software. This is far from cost-efficient, so we can count on this being reduced if no left turns are made off bridges and no bicyclists are run over. Probably, the software guy will be replaced by remote monitoring, much like a drone. This would also reduce the anxiety level of fellow motorists who will see a "driver" ignoring the small tip-off of the equipment strapped to the roof of the car.
I've been saying for some time now that when self-driving cars appeared, Uber would be jumping on them big time; no more problems with unionizing drivers or figuring out if they're employees, which would lead to lawsuits. It's started, long before we thought it would.
Back in the early '80s, video games from Atari, among other manufacturers, came on plug-in cartridges for your console. These were expensive to produce compared to later disks and downloads, because they required the use of dedicated chips and casings, printed labels and boxes, etc.
So when Atari made five million copies of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial game in 1983 and sold less than half, it was a major blow and helped fuel the great video game crash that lasted for years. There arose an urban legend that Atari had buried 14 truckloads of cartridges and equipment in a New Mexico landfill in 1983. In 2014, the Xbox Entertainment studios traced the rumors and found them to be true, digging up 30-year-old games (probably unusable) and selling them on eBay. At least one of them went to the Smithsonian.
Of course. Failure is timeless.
Recently, there was an ad in The Economist for a refrigerator with a built-in door camera, which takes a picture every time you open it and posts it on the Internet, so "you can check from anywhere" to see what you have. Of course, the example shows neat, barely populated shelves with everything visible.
Don't expect pithy comments in this column on the iPhone 7 this month. As I wrote it, pre-orders are starting, but nothing has shipped. There's much fuss over the elimination of the headphone jack, supposedly to make it thinner.
This has two ramifications: plug-ins other than headphones, such as the Square credit-card reader (will they work with the adapter, or is this Apple's way of forcing you to ApplePay?) and the inability to listen to music and charge at the same time, since both go through the same port.
Bluetooth headphones are notoriously unreliable, so that's not really a solution. However, Apple will be glad to sell you a set of their wireless ear buds, another way to effectively jack up the price.
As for myself, I'm waiting for the sales on the 6 or 6S that will start soon at the phone stores. And, for Heaven's sake, if you still have a Samsung Note 7 phone, take it to the store and exchange it. This is not a drill; they do catch fire and explode.
Part of the problem with the Samsung is that the battery is not replaceable — you have to swap out the whole phone. Apple started this long ago — one of my frustrations with my first iPhone was having to replace it when the battery no longer held a charge. Now there are (unauthorized) repair places to do that, but it's still a form of planned obsolescence that is frustrating.

Álvaro Affonso de Miranda Neto (* 5. Februar 1973 in São Paulo), auch Doda de Miranda, ist brasilianischer Springreiter.

Im Oktober 2013 befand er sich auf Platz 23 der Weltrangliste.

Privates
Mit dem Model Cibele Dorsa hat Doda eine 2000 geborene Tochter, Viviane de Miranda. Diese tritt wie ihr Vater im Springreiten an. Auch sein Bruder Nando de Miranda ist als Springreiter aktiv.

2002 lernte er beim Training in Belgien Athina Onassis kennen, die er am 3. Dezember 2005 in São Paulo heiratete. Sein Trauzeuge war der Springreiter Rodrigo Pessoa. Das Paar lebte im niederländischen Valkenswaard. Im Jahr 2016 trennte sich das Paar, die Scheidung erfolgte im Herbst 2017.

Seit 2016 lebt de Miranda wieder in Brasilien. Im selben Jahr lernte er seine neue Lebensgefährtin Denize Severo kennen, die er im September 2018 heiratete.

Karriere
Im Alter von neun Jahren begann de Miranda in São Paulo mit dem Reiten. Er brach sein Hochschulstudium nach dem zweiten Jahr ab und zog 1995 von Brasilien nach Belgien, um bei Nelson Pessoa zu trainieren.

Im Frühjahr 1996 nahm er in Genf erstmals am Weltcupfinale teil. Mit der brasilianischen Nationalmannschaft gewann de Miranda sowohl bei den Olympischen Spielen 1996 als auch 2000 die Bronzemedaille, jeweils mit Aspen. Diesen Erfolg konnte er mit der brasilianischen Mannschaft auch bei den Panamerikanischen Spielen 2003 in Santo Domingo mit dem Pferd Oliver Metodo wiederholen.

Daneben schloss er die Olympischen Sommerspiele 1996 mit einem achten Platz in der Einzelwertung ab. Weitere Championatsteilnahmen für ihn waren die Weltreiterspiele 1998, 2002 und 2006. Bei den Panamerikanischen Spielen 2011 gewann er mit Norson Mannschaftssilber und belegte in der Einzelwertung Rang 25.

Bei den Olympischen Spielen 2016 vor heimischem Publikum kam die Equipe Brasiliens auf den fünften Rang, de Miranda wurde in der Einzelwertung als bester Brasilianer mit Cornetto K Neunter. Durch den Verlust seiner Pferde infolge der Scheidung und durch den Umzug nach Brasilien verlor de Miranda den Anschluss an den internationalen Spitzensport. Im Jahr 2017 nahm er nur noch an zwei internationalen Turnieren teil, beide in Brasilien.
