we want things to be black and white and the world is made of color. we don't even get shades of grey to choose from, we get red and purple, orange and blue, green and yellow. we get the full spectrum, an elusive rainbow made of light and still, all those colors are never enough.
my garden is thirsty. i'm thirsty. we're all thirsty for something, always. we're all here beneath the same blue sky, the same night stars, the same tired sun, and the world spins round the way it always has. we think we know better. we refuse to see the forest for the trees because the trees refuse to acknowledge our presence.
i step outside at night and listen. i look up at the stars and there are no answers, only questions. i know the names of some of the constellations, but others i've forgotten. i don't bother relearning them because i'm tired of naming things. some of them don't even exist anymore, even though i can see them. a name seems so irrelevant.
gravity holds me in place and keeps me silent and makes me laugh with the cage of its promise.
i'm not a tree because i've never grown roots. every tree out there has made that decision. but i'm the one carrying water. and i have no idea what that means.
we thought shoes were a good invention. and guns. and cars to carry us to other places. we think we are smarter than ourselves.
this is a prayer and i don't pray. this is a mantra that needs no chant. this is the morning a flower will open.
we are not seeds but we know how to hold them.
we plant hope and beg for rain.
the sky is grey, the sky is blue, the sky is orange.

No. 52 (continued)
I have seen some spots that are truly amazing. I never thought that the sight of destruction would be a swell sight to see, but the places I saw were just that — for the wreckage was not of buildings in the towns, but wreckage of nothing but enemy vehicles and trains. When you see enemy vehicles lined up bumper-to-bumper along long stretches of road and see trains nearby wrecked in similar manner (charred so that none is any good except as metal) with several railroad guns in a single stretch, it shows what our strafing planes can do. It also shows the men that they have just that much less of the enemy equipment to contend with in their progress toward Berlin.
Have been glad to see that only a small number of the towns and cities have been damaged much. On the whole, to date, they haven't had it as bad as I expected them to have it. I thought there would be many a small town flattened, but they're all in pretty good shape. As the battle gets stiffer, however, I imagine that the towns in the way will take more and more of a beating. But the Nazis seem to be just about backed up to their own border so that it will be their towns that take it on the chin rather than France and the other countries that Germany had occupied.
Have seen a lot of places in the last week, but unfortunately haven't had time to stop long enough for more than a fleeting glance around me. Golly, I can see now how people could come over for a visit to France and decide to stay longer and longer. What beautiful country I've gone through in the last week!! I was amazed — beautiful sweeping green fields, poplar trees along the highways, excellent roads and typical, cute French villages along the highway and nestled against the mountainsides in wide, colorful valleys. Have seen some breathtakingly beautiful scenes alright!
Another feature that makes this country so pretty is the plentifulness of rivers — real, honest-to-goodness rivers with numerous tributaries. These rivers are not like those flowing mud-holes of Italy, but are clean, wide, and crossed in numerous spots by picturesque and efficient bridges (efficient except in the middle where one invariably finds a section blown out — however, rapidly repaired by our engineers). At one point I could see six different bridges crossing the same river at different levels, and there wasn't a one that didn't have a whole section out of it.

At Smith Meters Ltd., Rowan Road, the production manager,
Mr. John Allan, said that production had come to a halt.
"The factory is completely stopped," he said.
" We employ 2,000 and almost every one is on strike. A very
small number have come to work, and this is insignificant.
" There were pickets outside this morning, but there was no
bother. This is a national strike," he added.

NEW CENTRE FOR THE HAPPY FACTORY
Mr. Norman Smith, chairman of Smith Meters Ltd., Rowan Road, at the opening of the firm's new dining and recreation centre last week, said: "This building is a sign of the great success the firm has had over its many years."
The centre incorporates a small hostel, two dining-rooms, a central kitchen and a confectionery kiosk.
A plaque on the first floor landing was unveiled by Mr. R N. D. Bruce, Chairman of the South Eastern Gas Board, who performed the opening ceremony.
Afterwards the 50 guests toured the new block. In the kitchen much interest was shown in the modern equipment, among them automatic potato peelers and mashers, electric dish washers and the latest cooking ranges.
The party, which included Mr. Robert Carr, M P. for Mitcham. Alderman D. Chalkley, Mayor of Mitcham, Mr. T C Battersby, president of tho Institution of Gas Engineers, and members of the Board of United Gas Industries, also toured parts of the main factory.
At the luncheon held in one of the new dining-rooms Mr. Smith said the success of Smith Meters had grown from the fact there was always a happy atmosphere in the factory. "We believe in looking after our staff well, giving them good food and good working conditions."
He reminded his audience of the early days of the company. "When it was first started," he said, "there were only a handful of people on the staff. The week's wages for all the staff were similar to one man's weekly wage today."
Mr. Smith paid tribute to those responsible for building the new block. It is a very fine building and the architect and builders should be praised."
Smith Meters factory in Rowan Road, Mitcham, is one of a large group of factories connected with United Gas Industries Ltd.
The Rowan Road premises are the headquarters of the U.G.I. (Meters) division which controls factories in Belfast, Edinburgh, Exeter, Leicester, Manchester, Kennington and Dunblaine. There is also a factory in New Zealand.
Smith Meters was founded in 1834 and established in Snow Hill, in the City of London, moving to Kennington in 1865. In 1929 an additional factory at Mitcham was built.
The company now employs about 2,300 people, 1,750 of them at the Rowan Road factory.
Among the products made by the division are gas and electricity meters, coin switches, and food processing and catering equipment.

When the Seattle Public Library opens its temporary home today in the Washington State Convention and Trade Center, patrons will notice colorful walls, large windows letting in copious amounts of sunlight and about two-thirds as many books and other items.
Library staff members finished getting the last of 550,000 volumes shelved Thursday night, and the books will become available for checkout again after a parade and other festivities today.
About 275,000 volumes are being kept in a storage facility in Queen Anne during the two-year demolition and reconstruction of the central library at 1000 Fourth Ave., which will cost $159 million.
Most of the stored items will be available for checkout, but patrons will have to wait 24 hours while they are transported to the temporary library.
The children's section of the library was moved in its entirety, and it sits in one of the only carpeted rooms in the temporary facility. Patrons will notice bare concrete floors in most other places in the library, since officials tried to save money by going with a minimalist look.
Pipes and air ducts -- some of which match the pastel-colored walls -- snake their way across the ceiling, and fire-retardant insulation is visible on the steel girders of the structure of the building.
The temporary library includes areas for puppet shows, book readings and other educational activities, a computer lab for teaching Internet skills, an information desk that is easier to find than it was in the old central building, and the Library Equal Access Project for people with disabilities.
The move and remodeling of the convention center cost $10 million.
About 20,000 items will be unavailable until 2003, including fragile reference items, such as a Congressional Serial Set that chronicles the business of the U.S. Congress from 1800 to the 1840s. The set shows maps and charts from the Lewis and Clark Expedition as they were presented to the Congress.
"You realize the impact of the library when you can go back that far," said Judee Fenton, temporary library coordinator. "It's not an easy process because librarians want to keep everything, but we just pick the best."
Until the new library opens, people wanting to see those items will have to go to the University of Washington's libraries, which also have copies of the documents.
Administrators and librarians expressed excitement about the project underway.
Howard Fox, manager of the library's Science and Technology Department, said he was amazed to see so many books on the third floor of the convention center. The books in his section had been divided up into different groups before the move.
"You don't realize how large a collection is until you see it all laid out," he said. "I think we are exceedingly lucky to have this space," he said.

Work begins to turn former bar into a school
By Zach Prelutsky |
Posted: Wed 3:42 PM, Jul 10, 2019 |
Updated: Wed 6:43 PM, Jul 10, 2019
LA CROSSE, Wis. (WEAU) -- Construction crews and district officials have started clearing booze and bars to make way for students and teachers.
In February, the School District of La Crosse purchased a downtown La Crosse bar and music venue called the Brickhouse, to turn into a school.
"Immediately when we came in here we thought 'yeah this has a lot of potential'. Number one the location. It's close to businesses downtown, close to the park. But if you look at some of the architecture, it's kind of unique there so we thought right away this would be a unique building for downtown for a school," said Supervisor of Buildings and Grounds Joe Ledvina.
The new school will combine the La Crosse Design Institute and 7 Rivers Community High School, both project-based learning charter schools.
The new building will be about 17,000 square feet, twice the amount of space as both LDI and 7 Rivers had in the past combined.
"This is going to have a lot of flexible spaces, this is our project-based school that's coming here. So it will be unique in the fact that we won't have a bunch of classrooms, it will be open spaces. Spaces that they can do different things in and they can create different projects in and so from that perspective flexible with electricity, flexible with lighting," said Ledvina.
The school district plans to invest $1.5 million into the new school, which is still in need of a name.
About 100 students are expected to attend when the building is ready in January.
School District of La Crosse to buy bar, turn it into a school


On this final day in 2014 (remind me how we're here already?), I thought it would be fun to look back on the year. I always like reflecting around this time of year and this past week I've been thinking a lot about what I'd like to accomplish in 2015. One of those things is continuing to work hard on this blog. I'm very proud of the work that I put into this blog in 2014 and I want to continue to improve my little corner of the internet.
Thank you so much for your continual support! You all are definitely a big part of what keeps me going and why I love pouring my time and energy into this blog.
I don't know why, but I feel like I look a bit like a French school girl in this outfit. This is probably nothing like what French school girls actually wear, but in my head, this is how one might dress. Can anyone confirm or deny?
Today is my last day in California and tonight I'll be buckled up on a plane for a red-eye flight back home. It's been really, really great to spend time with my family this past week and a half, but I'm also looking forward to getting back to my cozy little bedroom in NYC. It's always nice to have some down time in the city. I don't go back to work until the 5th, so I get to enjoy being on vacation for one more glorious week.
Do you have any fun NYE plans? I think I'm going to do dinner with some friends, then head over to another friend's apartment for a party. While I was in California, I picked up a sparkly top to wear on Wednesday and I'm still deciding what I want to do with my makeup. I'm trying to get back to the regular schedule this week, so check back soon for some reflections on 2014 and resolutions for 2015!

Q: How to dynamically change the capacity of a Static Resource in AnyLogic I'm working with a AnyLogic simulation on emergency department. The departments leader want to test the benefits of adding, nurses, treatments room etc. It was easy to make it so that they can dynamically change the number of nurses through the GUI, as this is a "Moving" resource type. However, how can I dynamically change a Static resource type like ED-rooms which is tied to specific Network Nodes?
It's not that I want the resource pools to be dynamically created. But it's that I want to control how big of a portion of the existing resource pool that will be used. The current capacity is 13 rooms, and I want this to be varied from 13 to 28
Using get_Capacity(n) works for non-static resources such as Nurses etc. but when I use .set_Capacity(n) for a Static Resource I get the following error:
"(ECRoom is here referring to rooms in the emergency department): java.lang.RuntimeException: root.ECRoom: Capacity definition type should be 'Direct' to support this operation"

A: The easiest way is to just pre-define several ResourcePool elements with static ED rooms linked to whatever node they would be using.
Then, set their normal capacity to zero and only change it to some non-zero value if the user wants it.
If you simply need to change the capacity at runtime, myResourcePool.set_Capacity(someNumber) is your friend :)
(Dynamically creating resource pools, home nodes, etc. is all possible but a whole different ball-game)

Japanese Instructional Package for Developing Sport Tourism Staff (Caddies)
Natthira Tuptim
The purposes of present article were 1) to construct a Japanese instructional package for developing sport tourism staff (Caddies) and study its efficiency, and 2) to compare the learners' learning achievement after learning through the instructional package. The subjects were 40 caddies purposively selected. The research tools were a questionnaire, instructional package and a pre-test and a post-test. The research methods were to construct a Japanese instruction package through LSP (Language for Specific Purpose) and a construction of instructional package by Promwong (1978), and to develop the pre-test and post-test papers. After trying out 3 times based on the E1/E2 standard (when E1 is the efficiency of a process, and E2 is the efficiency of a result), the results showed that a Japanese instructional package for developing sport tourism staff (Caddies) had the efficiency of 89.67/87.70. Also, there was a significant difference between the pre-test and the post-test at .01.

CEO Update - 23 October
Newsletters / Bulletins
Mental As fundraising
You may have seen the Society for Mental Health Research (SMHR) this week announced that over $365,000 was raised via generous donations from the public during this year's ABC Mental As campaign, congratulations to all involved and thank you for your support of this important campaign.
What a Mental Health Month!
It's been a huge month across the whole sector, and Mental Health Australia has had some big events this week with our AGM, Grace Groom Memorial Oration and Members Policy Forum - including a visit from Minister for Health Sussan Ley.
Our AGM on Wednesday was a success, with members receiving a copy of our 2014-15 Annual Report which can also be found on the website via the link below.
In addition, the elections saw a change in our Board, with the Butterfly Foundation's Christine Morgan Elected to the Board for the first time. This change also saw Professor Lyn Littlefield from the Australian Psychological Society end her time on the Board.
Lyn has been on our Board for almost a decade, most recently serving as our Deputy Chair and the head of our Governance Committee. Speaking at the AGM our Chair, Jennifer Westacott, praised Lyn's exceptional contribution to the Board, and to the cause of mental health reform more broadly. In particular, Jennifer noted Lyn's very active role as Deputy Chair during a difficult period of reform, and a time of significant transition for Mental Health Australia. I add my thanks to Jennifer's, being grateful for the generous support and advice that Lyn has provided to me, and to CEOs before me.
The very warm applause Lyn received from the meeting confirmed that I speak on behalf of everyone many when I say how grateful we are for Lyn's contribution over the years.

Grace Groom Memorial Oration
This year's Grace Groom Memorial Oration was a roaring success, with an inspirational speech from recovery expert Professor Mike Slade from the UK. Mike captivated the 150 strong audience at the National Press Club in Canberra with his charming and personal account of working in the mental health system in the UK, and his passion to empower consumers to be placed at the forefront of their own recovery journey. His speech can be downloaded via the link below. Thank you again to our friends from MI Fellowship for their assistance in bringing Professor Slade to Australia.
In addition, the event was attended by four members of the Groom family and we were honoured to provide an opportunity for Grace's son to join us on stage and present the inaugural Grace Groom Memorial Scholarship. This year, PHD student Kathina Ali was the recipient of the $5,000 prize. Congratulations Kathina.
We hope to get a recording of the event online soon, and will keep you posted.
Members Policy Forum
Yesterday also saw our bi-annual Members Policy Forum held at Parliament House in Canberra. During this event our members heard from all sides of politics and had the opportunity for frank and open discussion with politicians in a closed environment.
Specifically, members heard from Jan McLucus and Katy Gallagher from the ALP, Senator Janet Rice from the Australian Greens, and Health Minister the Hon Sussan Ley from the Government. Each MP and Senator outlined their party's approach to mental health reform with a focus on the National Mental Health Commission's Review of Mental Health Programmes and Services.
Importantly, Minister Ley renewed her commitment to making announcements on reform before the end of the year - with every indication that she was preparing for significant reforms.
We also launched a new report on Contracting and Commissioning and held a significant discussion with Nick Chiam from the National Disability Insurance Agency. We were also heartened to see many members using the opportunity of being at Parliament House during a sitting week to undertake some of their Distributed Advocacy Day meetings. A busy day all round.
Minister for Social Services
Following the MPF I was invited to a small stakeholder dinner with the Minister for Social Services, Christian Porter, and I will meet with him again this afternoon. It is encouraging to see the new Minister taking an active interest in mental health issues early on, and we look forward to working together on reform issues across his wide ranging portfolio.
Recovery orientation in service delivery
On Monday Josh Fear attended an MI Fellowship event in Melbourne where Professor Mike Slade spoke about the ideas in his recent report about the tension between the notion of 'permanency' and a recovery orientation in service delivery. The empirical evidence about mental health and recovery: how likely, how long, what helps? was co-written with Dr Eleanor Longden and commissioned by MI Fellowship. It is available from the website.
Catholic Social Services Australia
On Monday Josh also appeared on a panel Catholic Social Services Australia's annual leadership forum in Canberra. The panel discussed the challenges we face at the interfaces between the NDIS and other systems – challenges that will be familiar to many readers.
NDIS Act Review Submission
The Australian Government recently engaged Ernst and Young to conduct an independent review of the legislative framework for the NDIS. To find out more about the review, click here. Mental Health Australia's submission to the review highlights concerns regarding:
Access criteria, in particular the requirement that NDIS participants have an impairment that is permanent or likely to be permanent'
Nominee provisions, with concerns raised by carers around what they perceive to be an imbalance between the rights of participants and the rights of carers in making decisions about NDIS-funded services
Governance arrangements, which to date have not facilitated systematic engagement with consumers, carers or providers on key aspects of scheme design or implementation.
To download the full submission please click on the link below.
Mental Health in Multicultural Australia (MHiMA) Project
As advised in my previous update, Mental Health Australia has been engaged by the Department of Health to manage the MHiMA Project. I met with the MHiMA National Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) Consumer and Carer Working Group (NCCCWG) on Tuesday 21 October. This was a very helpful and productive meeting, and I look forward to speaking further with the NCCCWG to inform the future of the Project. The engagement with the NCCWG will be an ongoing process as Mental Health Australia works to develop recommendations on the future of the MHiMA Project.
Mental Health Australia will be holding a meeting in Canberra on 26 October with the consortium members who were involved in delivering the MHiMA Project up until 20 June 2015, along with representatives of the MHiMA National Project Coordination Unit and the NCCCWG. This meeting will be an opportunity for Mental Health Australia and those involved previously in delivering elements of the MHiMA Project to discuss what has been achieved to date and our role in managing the project.
Developing a practical guide for working with carers of people with a mental illness
Families and friends play vital roles in supporting people with serious mental illness. Carers often face unique challenges in their caring role, including navigating the mental health system and dealing with issues of grief and loss.
A consortium of five organisations – Mind Australia, HelpingMinds (formerly Arafmi WA), Private Mental Health Consumer Carer Network (Australia), Mental Health Carers Arafmi Australia and Mental Health Australia – is overseeing the development of the Practical Guide for Working in a Partnership Manner with Carers of People with a Mental Illness. Funding for this work has been provided by Mind Australia and HelpingMinds.
The guide will assist mental health providers to work with carers in a meaningful, mutually beneficial way using a partnership approach, to enhance outcomes for consumers and support carers and families in their caring role.
The primary purpose of this project is to enhance practice in engaging, supporting and working with carers in all areas of mental health care and influence organisational policies, procedures, protocols.
The Guidelines Development Committee has met several times this year. Stakeholder consultations have recently taken place across the country and have contributed greatly to the development of the guide.
We look forward to a launch of the guide in the first half of 2016.
NDIS Evaluation
The National Institute of Labour Studies at Flinders University is currently conducting an evaluation of the NDIS trial and the evaluation team is seeking to speak with people with disability who are not in the NDIS. They may either have chosen not to join the scheme, although they know or believe themselves to be eligible, or their NDIS access request may have been turned down. The team would very much like to hear from these people and learn of their experiences. At this stage, they are planning to conduct focus groups in each of the trial sites. If you would like more information about the evaluation or the focus groups please visit the website.
NMHCO Establishment Project
A reminder that materials developed through the National Mental Health Consumer Organisation Establishment Project are now available online. The materials include draft governance and operational documents, including a constitution and corporate governance manual, which could support the establishment of an independent national mental health consumer organisation.
TheMHS Summer Forum
Early bird registrations for the 2016 TheMHS Summer Forum are now open. In its 18th year, TheMHS Summer Forum is an annual two-day educational program that highlights a "hot" topic in mental health.
For 2016, one of the most pressing issues in mental health is the impact on our communities of illicit drugs, such as crystal methamphetamine (ice/P). The mental health consequences of illicit drugs present new challenges for consumers, families and carers, governments and mental health services. Forum delegates will be led by experts to examine the challenges from illicit drugs to good mental health services, highlight recent research, and focus on directions for the future. For more information please visit the website.
Helping someone with gambling problems
Gambling is an enjoyable recreational pursuit for many people. However, for some it can lead to significant harms. Mental Health First Aid Australia and Melbourne University used the Delphi expert consensus method to develop guidelines for how a concerned family member, friend or member of the public can recognise the signs of gambling problems and support a person to change their gambling.
These guidelines are now available via the link below.
Mental Health First Aid Australia and Turning Point are also conducting an evaluation of the usefulness of these guidelines when downloaded. We would like to get the word out about these guidelines.

Helping someone with mental health problems and financial difficulties
Mental health problems and financial difficulties often go hand-in-hand. However, mental health professionals are not necessarily trained in how to assist their clients with financial difficulties. These guidelines for mental health professionals, 'Helping someone with mental health problems and financial difficulties', outline what mental health professionals need to know and do to support clients with financial difficulties. These guidelines are based on the expert opinions of panels of Australian financial counsellors, financial institution staff, mental health consumers and carers. The guidelines are available from the Mental Health First Aid Australia website.

Facebook as Diary – What will your legacy be?
Once upon a time people wrote in diaries. If you wanted to learn what your grandmother was thinking, you could read her diary and learn how she met your grandfather. If the diary was kept, if it was legible, if it made it from point A into your hands! Now, fast forward to today – a time when many of us are keeping our "diaries" up to date on a daily if not hourly basis on Facebook and other internet sites. If we want to – the keys to our accounts could be passed along to our offspring or friends and our online identities (diaries) could be kept up for a long time, possibly forever! Anyone who wants to can pretty easily turn their online musings into a website that should last a long long time.
I was pondering this concept on a trip to the Oregon coast this past weekend. What might it be like for future generations to be able to go back in time and review what their parents and grandparents were doing – that intimate look could be so useful to a biographer, sibling, or anyone, really.
That led me to rethink a little what we post on-line. I keep finding value in sharing what I'm doing on Facebook and beyond. I think I'm now conceiving it as a way to inform people of my various projects – to get assistance, but also for a reason I had never thought of before. Have you ever been somewhere and someone approached you – a Facebook only friend? And, it turns out that they know something about you though you might not know much about them. Or, vice versa. I have this experience frequently. This weekend at the beach, I stumbled on a group of women who were sitting around a lovely campfire on the beach. It turned out that I knew 3 of the women, and was FB friends with a few more. That instant recognition and also their general knowledge of what I'm up to in the world led to a level of welcome and appreciation that = reputation. My reputation in that moment was not "stranger" it was – "someone we know who does good things in the world". That, in turn, led to a level of welcome/hospitality that was very helpful in that moment and pleasant.
So, the reasons to share with the world what you're thinking seem to continue to grow. People often ask me what/why to post on social networks – here are a couple answers to that question. Somewhat we're all flying on blind faith that this is useful, and if I come up with more reasons why this is good practice (besides some other obvious ones – connecting you with people you want to know – finding resources that you seek – finding help with projects, etc) I will share them here. Can you think of any reasons that are interesting why a person might want to post on social networks?

Rightwing Talkshow Host Banned From UKt

Talk Show Host Banned From UK For Political Opinions
Prison Planet.com
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_KRwpjsiXg
American talk show host Michael Savage has been banned from entering the UK by the Home Secretary because of his political opinions and opposition to illegal immigration, which is considered "hate speech" in airstrip one.
"Home Secretary Jacqui Smith (pictured) said she decided to make public the names so others could better understand what sort of behaviour Britain was not prepared to tolerate," according to an ITN report.
The list of 16 "unwelcome" individuals includes Neo-Nazis, former Ku Klux Klan members, racist skinhead groups and Islamic preachers supposedly linked to terrorist groups.
Alongside these appears the name of Savage, who is a conservative talk show host in the mould of Rush Limbaugh who has consistently opposed illegal immigration and the declining stature of U.S. sovereignty.
"Coming to this country is a privilege. If you can't live by the rules that we live by, the standards and the values that we live by, we should exclude you from this country and, what's more, now we will make public those people that we have excluded," said Smith.
Apparently the 'rules that people live by' in the UK do not include the right to free speech and political opinions considered unpalatable by what whistleblowers have described as a "Stalinist cabal of control freaks" currently in power in Britain.
As we have previously reported, people are mandated by government threats, peer pressure and cultural bullying to "tolerate" all kinds of minority groups and for the most part we do exactly that. The problem lies in the fact that the very same crowd that preaches "tolerance" is totally intolerant of anyone who dares utter a word against them. [Source]
Savage threatens to sue against UK travel ban for political opinions

Over 200 People Killed in an Attack on an Egyptian Mosque
Four men reportedly opened fire during services.
At least 200 people have been killed and another 135 injured in an attack on the Rawda mosque in Egypt on Friday morning. Witnesses say four men launched a bomb into the building during services, then shot into the crowd. While there have been recent attacks in this region—the northeastern-most corner of the country, on the Sinai peninsula—by Islamic militants, today's attack is the deadliest of its kind.
The mosque is located in the small town of Bir al-Abed, located about 25 miles west of the region's capital city of Arish. In September, 18 police officers were killed near Arish in a militant attack that mirrors today's events: Militants detonated a bomb, then opened fire. The Islamic State claimed that assault, as well as the plane bombing in Sinai in 2015 that killed hundreds.
Reports from Bir al-Abed suggest that the Rawda mosque was targeted due to its Sufi followers. Some Islamic militants decry Sufism, a more mystical interpretation of Islam, as heretical.
The Islamic State has yet to release a statement about the Rawda mosque attack. Egyptian president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has not yet addressed the nation. The death tolls has continued to rise throughout the afternoon, as photos released from the mosque depict bloodied bodies covered in cloth.

When it comes to self care and self love, there's no better way of working than from the inside out. As the saying goes; 'You are what you eat', and consuming things that provide love and care for the body is one way of truly helping yourself become your best self.
The ancient health system of Ayurveda (literally translated as the 'science of life'), considers our diet to be one of the primary ways of influencing the body and mind. Certain foods, oils and herbs are said to have certain properties or tastes: Sweet, made up of the earth and water elements; sour – water and fire elements; salty – earth and fire elements; pungent – fire and air elements; bitter, of the air and ether elements; and astringent, composed of the air and earth elements.
Whilst we can use different tastes and herbs to make changes depending upon our needs, there is one branch of Ayurveda which specialises in restoring, rejuvenating, and nourishing all of the body's systems, and this is known as Rasayana.
There are a few different types of Rasayanas or 'rejuvenative' therapies, aimed at returning the body's natural physical and subtle 'glow'. The type dealing with foods and herbs that nourish the body is known as Dravaya Rasayana. This branch is divided into a further set of specific rejuvenative uses, including slowing down the ageing process, enhancing brain power, promoting healthy eyesight, and preventing and curing disease.
Whilst there are a few specific Ayurvedic concoctions and herbs designed to rejuvenate and strengthen the systems, such as Chyavanprash, brahmi, vachashankhpushpi, guduchi rasayana, amalaki rasayana, and ashwagandha, there are lots of every-day foods and spices that can also serve as powerful rasayanas.

Passwords have become an almost overwhelming burden for users: you need them at work; you need them for personal accounts and memberships; every single one should be different; and you must change them every so often—but all on different schedules. Then on top of that, they must be at least so many characters long and they require uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols.
You're not supposed to write them down, and you definitely shouldn't store them on your computer in a spreadsheet called "private" or "passwords." And to make matters worse, now you have to worry about the ones you actually remember (because you've used them for a long time) belonging to an account that gets breached by a cyber criminal and suddenly your credentials are for sale on the dark web. Or a hacker who conducts social engineering scams works into your network and figures out what your favorite-pet's-name-and-street-address password is.
One way companies are trying to get around passwords is through biometric logins. Think of your cell phone and how you simply press your thumb down or use facial recognition to unlock it. These aren't passwords, but they haven't replaced your Apple ID or Google account password either. You still need that for certain activities such as accessing and changing your services.
So how can we make passwords harder to crack until we can get rid of them completely?
Proper security consists of multiple layers of protection. Think of a castle on a hill. It was built on a hill so the people in the castle can see things approaching long before they arrive. It also has walls too high to climb, long-distance weapons, guards, and it's surrounded by a moat. Each of these elements makes it harder and more time-consuming—and therefore, less attractive—to try to break into.
Your security should be set up the same way.
One added level of protection companies are using more commonly now is called multi-factor authentication (MFA). This adds in a step during login designed to prove your identity. For example, after entering your user name and password, you may see a new field to fill in such as a code that gets texted to your cell phone. That way, if someone has your login information, but they're not you, they won't have your phone and won't receive the code to complete logging in. MFA is a good example of adding in one of those extra layers of protection for added security.
There's a risk that comes with feeling more secure, however, and that is that people think any old password will do now. Since you know you have another checkpoint, you think you can get away with a simpler password. It's understandable, but mistaken logic. Easy-to-crack passwords put us all at risk.
So to make sure you're keeping your information protected, use the following tips for strong yet easy to remember passwords.
Use substitutions. This is where you use characters to mean other things. These can be simple substitutions of numbers or symbols that look like the letter you're replacing such as A with an @ or 4; S with a $ or 5; E with a 3, etc. However, many attacks on passwords are starting to figure thing out, so you might instead use <3 for Love or Heart, or the number 8 for the word Ate.
Use a passphrase. This is a phrase or sentence that has special meaning to you so you're not likely to forget it. The longer the password, the harder it is to crack. And by combining a passphrase with substitutions, you can make an easy-to-remember but difficult-to-crack password. For example, the phrase "Home is where the heart is" could be changed to something like "H0m3!swh3r3th3<3!s" if you know that every e is a 3, every i is a !, and that you used <3 for heart. It's simple to remember but effective as a long, hard-to-crack password.
Avoid personal information. Please do not use very specific-to-yourself data in your passwords. Try to avoid using a spouse's or children's names and birthdays, especially written in any type of order. For example, "Charles1995" or "31Charles95" could be easily identified by someone who either knows you well or uses various search engines to get your information. If you want a password close to the heart, try something like: "MyHusbandProposed@@Cruisein2009!" or "MyseconddogsnameisSn00py!" Long phrases, easy to remember, combined with substitutions.
Hopefully, these tips will help ease the frustration caused by passwords. We need them to keep our information secure and to protect our networks. So remember to make your passwords as long as possible, at least 10-12 characters. With substitutions, they'll be easier to remember and stronger at the same time.
Now find out how to protect yourself from social engineering scams, or dive into the facts behind phishing so you can stop falling for those fake emails.

Q: Titanium Android webview autolink phone number I have a webview with html content written from a mixed xml and html file.
The content have email address and phone number. The code works fine in IPhone. In Android, links are ok, but when I touch over phone number nothing is happening. Does the format of the phone number have to be particular? How can I linkify phone number on webviews on Android?
Thanks for any help!
Best regards
Manuela

A: If you are planning to make a call when user clicks on "phone_number", you need to write different code for android.
you can write :
var num = "12345678";
if(Ti.Platform.osname === 'android')
{
    var intent = Ti.Android.createIntent({
        action: Ti.Android.ACTION_CALL,
        data: 'tel:'+num
    });
    Ti.Android.currentActivity.startActivity(intent);
}
else
{
    Titanium.Platform.openURL('tel:'+num);
}

A: It should be as simple as adding the "href" property to the telephone number in the HTML.  If that is there, the browser will handle the intent.

First Restoration in a press release
An account of the restoration of the church transcribed from an unidentified press cutting of 1860 pasted into the Preacher's Book
Rev. G.E.Tatham (N.R.O. PD 621/23)
"Happy are the people that are in such a case."
The Church of St. Andrew, Great Ryburgh, is one of the few specimens of a perfect cruciform church in the county of Norfolk; it consists of a chancel, nave, and north and south transept of nearly equal length. The structure is of the fifteenth century, with the exception of the western tower, which is of the latest Saxon period; and, until recently was defaced with plastered ceilings, square piers 1 and the usual coverings of whitewash. The original font was found buried in the ground, and formed the basement of the modern basin. Ten of the windows had also been entirely blocked up, so that little or no trace of them could be seen: and the ancient east window had been replaced with a wooden one of ogre2 form.
All these defects have now been removed, most of the 3 windows opened, a new east window constructed with a trefoil gable light above; the ceilings have been replaced by the open ancient roofs in character with the building, relieved by the introduction of colour throughout; the old work having been preserved wherever it was practicable. That portion of the roof which covers the sacrarium has been painted azure, with gilt stars and vermillion mouldings round the panels; whilst the remainder of the chancel roof has been cladded and painted azure between the spars. The sacrarium itself, consisting of two raised spaces and footpace has been paved with Minton tiles, laid within York stone borderings, and is divided from the rest of the chancel by an oak rail, supported on Hart's iron standards, coloured blue and chocolate with gilt foliage, producing a light and pleasing effect. The church has been re-seated throughout with open benches, nearly doubling the previous accommodation, though an unsightly western gallery has been removed; and although much yet remains to be completed, it was in a fit state for the recommencement of divine worship, and was reopened on Friday, July 20th, when two full services were celebrated –in the morning at eleven o'clock (with Holy Communion), and in the evening at four o'clock, the Lord Bishop of the diocese officiating at the Holy Communion and preaching at both services. The prayers were said on both occasions by the Rev. G.E.Tatham, rector of the parish; the Revs. C. St. Denys Moxon 4 and J.B. Sweet 5 being the readers of the morning Lessons; and the former gentleman and the Rev. A.B. Hemsworth (lately curate of the parish) reading the afternoon Lessons. The Hon. and Rev. Canon Digby and the Rev. Canon Greene, Rural Deans, assisted the Bishop and the Rector at the Holy Communion. The Canticles, Psalms for the day, anthems, &c., were sung by the choir of the church, assisted by two or three friends, the congregation joining most heartily; and the "Amens" throughout the services were sung with great effect and solemnity. Ninety-one persons partook of the Lord's Supper, and above 600 persons were present at the evening service. The Offertories amounted to £34. 0s. 11/2d., and are to be devoted to the restoration fund, [AD1860 in ink by G.E.T]

Since this page was created, a search of the British Newspaper Archive has found a very similar report in the Norfolk Chronicle on July 20th 1860 and which gives a little more detail. This and the following clippings are reproduced by coutesty of the British Newspaper Archive:
Much of the restoration was funded by the tatham family but further related cuttings show that donations also came from charitable trusts as seen in the Morning Post June 22nd 1860:
and the Norfolk Chronicle on October 20th 1860:
Images of this restoration seem to have survived in but one photograph, issued as a postcard in the first decade of the 20th Century and you can read here more about surviving features from this period:
Recent oral history tells of the discovery of the William Wailes East Window in the Rectory basement before the sale of the property, only to disappear before it could be rescued! It must have lain there since 1911 when the Comper window was installed
It is described below in the entry in Kelly's Directory of 1879 with further information probably supplied by George Tatham:

Le lac Attawapiskat est un lac du district de Kenora au nord de l'Ontario, Canada. Il prend sa source principalement dans les rivières Otoskwin, Marten-Drinking et Pineimuta. Il se déverse dans le fleuve Attawapiskat et le North Channel, lui-même un tributaire de ce fleuve.

Le nom viendrait du mot algonquin atawabiskat, qui signifie « fond rocheux », en raison de son lit de calcaire qui fut jadis le fond d'une ancienne mer.

En langue , le terme chat-a-wa-pis-shkag pour les formations de calcaire particulières à la région, donne donc son nom au lac et au fleuve.

La localité des premières nations Neskantaga First Nation se situe sur le côté ouest du lac.

Sheryl Sandberg touts Facebook and Instagram combo as a killer mobile app for marketers; 1.5 million SMBs posted Facebook video in September; Dynamic Product Ads seeing ROI as good as paid search.
Facebook's well-oiled social media machine continues to hum along, yesterday reporting another blockbuster quarter. The focus, naturally, was on how well Facebook is doing as a business, with its $4.5 billion in third quarter revenue, more than one billion daily users and eight billion daily video views attracting most of the attention.
COO Sheryl Sandberg emphasized that with Instagram ads now available to buy through Facebook self-service platforms, businesses have an excellent way to reach an audience that is increasingly a mobile one. Average American adults, Sandberg said, spend 25 percent of their media time on mobile devices, and 20 percent of that time is spent on either Facebook or Instagram.
Larger enterprises are also taking advantage of Facebook videos, using them to improve the effectiveness of their TV campaigns. Sandberg cited a Nielsen Research study showing that marketers using Facebook video ads along with TV ads saw higher reach, ad recall, brand linkage and likability. GMC, for example, used video and other Facebook ads to extend the reach of a campaign for premium trucks and SUVs and got a 13-point lift in ad recall and a six-point lift in brand favorability.
"Video on Facebook gives marketers not just mass reach, but better cross-device targeting and measurement than we believe is available on any other platform," Sandberg said.
Facebook's Dynamic Product Ads, launched in February to give businesses the ability to load their product catalogs into Facebook's ad environment, are now driving ROI comparable to paid search, Sandberg said. She didn't offer any specific data to back up that claim, but she said Marriott is now using the ad unit to re-target travelers based on their travel search habits, and Latin American e-commerce merchant MercadoLibre is using them to re-market more than 38 million products in 13 countries. Both companies, Sandberg said, are seeing high ROI and are continuing to invest.

I opted to not use DateTime (by default) for this class since it is not a core module and can be a memory hog at times. That said, it should be noted that DateTime objects are compatible with this class. You will need to pass in a DateTime instance to new and after that everything should behave properly. If you want new_from_string to inflate strings to DateTime objects you will need to override that method yourself.

CEI Objects to Facebook Class Action Settlement that Pays Lawyers Nearly $4 Million While Consumers Get 22 Words of Nothing
Anna St. John • 06/27/2017
On Monday evening, the Competitive Enterprise Institute Center for Class Action Fairness (CCAF) filed an objection arguing against a cynical settlement in a Facebook class action that provides $3.9 million in fees and expenses to the plaintiffs' attorneys and only a vague 22-word addition to Facebook's "Help Center" for the class members.
According to CCAF, not only are the class members receiving worthless injunctive relief while their lawyers walk away with millions, but no one even notified class members of the settlement. This poorly-noticed settlement is clearly unreasonable because Facebook could have inexpensively notified the class through the platform since all of the class members are Facebook users, and Facebook already conveys 60 billion personal messages per day.
"This is a grossly unfair settlement where plaintiffs' attorneys put their own interest in fees ahead of their clients," said CCAF attorney and objector Anna St. John. "Class counsel also tried to hide that fact by telling class members about the settlement only via their law firms' websites instead of using the obvious, efficient, and cost-effective method: Facebook."
The settlement is a result of a privacy class action over Facebook's treatment of URLs in internal messages between Facebook users. The message that will appear on Facebook's help page says:
"We use tools to identify and store links shared in messages, including a count of the number of times links are shared."
>> See more information about this case here and read the objection here.
ABOUT: The Competitive Enterprise Institute's Center for Class Action Fairness represents class members against unfair class action procedures and settlements. Originally founded by Ted Frank in 2009, the center has won millions of dollars for consumers and shareholders and won landmark precedents that safeguard consumers, investors, courts, and the general public.
Unfair settlements generally serve self-interested lawyers and third parties at the expense of absent class members, the group of people whose rights are traded away to settle a class action. Lawyers have an interest in their fees, defendants have an interest in cheaply disposing of a lawsuit, and the class's interests can take a back seat in the process. CEI seeks to solve these problems by representing such class members pro bono and presenting judges with the other side of the argument.

Aftershocks themselves have aftershocks, and can even be foreshocks. Like any other magnitude 5.0 in Southern California, this event has a few percent chance of being followed by an earthquake of the same size of greater within the next week.
Ground Motions
The ground motions produced by this earthquake were recorded at over 60 stations of the new digital seismographic network in southern California called TriNet (a cooperative project of Caltech, U.S. Geological Survey, and the State Department of Conservation Division of Mines and Geology). The ground motions are defined as a percentage of the force of gravity. An acceleration of 1%g means the ground is pushing on you with 1% of the force that the gravity of the earth pulls on you. Ground accelerations recorded in this earthquake were 14%g at Sylmar, 10%g at Solamint and 7.6%g at Granada Hills.
Peak ground values from the TriNet stations were used in an automated algorithm to produce shaking maps (ground velocity and ground acceleration) several minutes after the earthquake origin time. These maps display which regions had the strongest shaking and thus which regions should be first examined for damage. The maps are placed on the World Wide Web as soon as they are generated for general access.
