Thief – "Uprising" Trailer
By Stefan Alexander
The latest title from Eidos Montreal is taking gamers by storm like a thief in the night (sorry, couldn't help myself). This reboot of the popular PC franchise brings back the master thief, Garret, after nearly a decade long leave of absence. And judging from the trailer, he's got a bone to pick with the powers that be.
The cinematics are beautifully rendered and the atmosphere in the Victorian setting is as dismal as even the darkest of Tim Burton films. Having never played the previous titles I'm new to the series. But the more I hear about it, and knowing what Eidos Montreal is capable of, I can't help but get stoked about stealthily jumping across building tops and stealing from the rich.
Thief will be released on February 25th 2014 for the PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and Xbox 360.

Barkley, not bad ,but too many dropped passes prevent a come from behind win for the Bears against Tennessee.
The Bears got some good QB play in Matt Barkley's first NFL start. After a mostly sluggesh first half, the Rookie from USC hit on two TD passes in the fourth quarter, to go with one that had given the Bears a brief 7-0 lead, but a last minute effort fell short when Barkey's pass on 4th and goal from the Tennessee 7, fell incomplete and the Bears(2-9)frel short 27-21 before a half empty Soldier Field.Too many dropped passes, including one by Marquis Wilson in the end zone(which could have put the Bears ahead in the last half minute)did the Home team in. The Titans, scored 27 straight points to take a seemingly safe 27-7 lead, but when the Bears forced the Visitors into two field goals, that kept the door open. The Titans had little or no pass rush on Barkley and he took advantage. Marc Mariotta tossed 3 TD passes for the Titans. The question is now, will Barkley start next week against the once victorious San Francisco 49ers, or could Jay Cutler be a surprise starter since John Fox has refused to rule the Bears starter out for the season.

In addition to advanced logical extraction we also provide Android physical data acquisition, allowing you to extract physical images of investigated phones and have exact binary clones. Physical analysis allows you to open image files created by this process, or those obtained through JTAG, chip-off or other tools to recover deleted files plus all other deleted data where our product is known to be excellent.
The use of apps to communicate and share has grown rapidly. Many apps are released or updated everyday. It is obvious that the analysis of apps is vital to retrieving as much evidence as possible. This is the strongest point of MOBILedit Forensic Express, we dedicate a large part of our team specifically for application analysis. We employ adaptive and in-depth methods to ensure you retrieve the most data available for each app- especially recovering deleted data. Data is analyzed for its meaning so you see it on a timeline as a note, a photo, a video or a flow of messages no matter what app was used to send them. Check list of apps for Android and list of apps for iOS.
Deleted data is almost always the most valuable information in a device. It often hides in applications; and because this is our strongest expertise, we deliver great results in finding deleted data. Our special algorithms look deeply through databases, their invalidated pages and within caches to find any data that still resides in a phone. MOBILedit Forensic Express retrieves the deleted data and presents it clearly in a special section of the report.
A tremendous amount of effort has been dedicated to refining reports so they are customizable, easy to read, concise and professional. An enhanced report configurator allows you to define exactly which data will be extracted from the phone and how the report will look. Each report is divided into sections, labeled with icons, pictures, and highlighted relevant data so you can find evidence quickly. A complete, configurable and comprehensive list of all events with a time-stamp is shown on a timeline and messages can be filtered by conversation or by contact names.
Gain access to locked backups of a phone by using our password and PIN breaker. Passwords can be cracked by performing a dictionary attack using our built-in dictionary, or you can use your own dictionary for other languages. Password breaker uses GPU acceleration and multi-threaded operations for maximum speed. Although iOS has well-protected data due to its on-the-fly hardware encryption, MOBILedit Forensic Express is able to penetrate this protection and retrieve the data using the lockdown method.
The new 64-bit engine provides stability and the ability to analyze huge amounts of data, apps with hundreds of thousands of messages, photos and other items, plus several phones at once. Speed up your investigation process by extracting multiple phones at the same time, and generating multiple outputs for each one. All you need is a USB hub, cables and a computer powerful enough to perform concurrent jobs. You can finish a week's worth of work overnight!
Having the right tool is not enough, you need the right staff to work with it. The shorter the learning curve the better. Because we have designed software for millions of consumers, it was a welcome challenge for us to make MOBILedit Forensic Express the most user-friendly forensic tool available. With a straightforward interface, each step is simple and guided with clear instruction. It is also optimized for touch screens allowing for easy use in the field.
When combined with Camera Ballistics you are able to identify which images present on the analyzed phone were actually taken by the phone's camera using a sensor fingerprint. This process delivers new insight into the images such as make, model, GPS, camera settings, mean square error, fingerprint presence result, probability, and correlation will be organized into a well designed and comprehensive PDF report suitable for submission as evidence.
MOBILedit Forensic Express extracts all data from phones also into open data format, so you get all the files directly as they are in the phone. This allows you to use other tools, including open source tools, to further analyze data and get even more evidence.
MOBILedit Forensic Express collects both standard and deleted message information sent by phone and displays it as a timeline. See all message information including who sent message text, what messenger program they used, and any attached media files.
Get exactly what you are looking for by filtering extracted data by keyword, specific contacts, time, application or file name. Apply these filters to different data types and radically minimize the report size.
This new feature allows you to live view content of a phone so you can browse and extract any file even before the batch extraction begins.
Although iOS has well-protected data due to hardware encrypted on-the-fly, MOBILedit Forensic Express is able to go through this protection and retrieve the data. It supports importing the lockdown files that can be found on a suspect's computer. These files are generated when you connect an iOS device to a PC and authorize the computer by typing the passcode. MOBILedit Forensic will instruct you on how to obtain these files. If you import the lockdown files to the computer where you make the acquisition, then you will be able to retrieve all data from the phone even if it is locked with a passcode.
This feature removes the requirement of a PIN for the original SIM card of the phone being investigated. It also removes the need for obsolete and unreliable Faraday bags. Now you can clone SIM cards, create new SIM cards with any ICCID, or just format your SIM card to renew for next use.

Max Eisenhardt (a.k.a. Magneto)
Friend to some, enemy to most, famed mutant Magneto died this Wednesday. Magneto, who lived through the holocaust, and survived battles with other powerful mutants, seemingly had no weakness. However this was not the case as the apparent cause of death was beef poisoning. Long time friend Charles Xavier commented on his friend's passing by saying, "I was saddened to hear the news. I'd often warned Erik about his love of consuming large quantities of beef, but he just wouldn't listen." Those expected to attend the funeral include Raven Darkhölme, Cain Marko, and Susan Summers.
Surprising news out of Boise this week, when it was announced that chivalry was dead. Witnesses to the event claim to have seen Patricia Walter, a local teacher, entering a restaurant with her date Thomas Redding. As they approached the entrance Tom suddenly stopped and waited for her to open the door for him. Later when the check came, Thomas claimed to have "not thought to bring his wallet along with him." Chivalry is survived by Patriotism, and Common Sense.
Stick Figure John
Tragedy struck this week. Beloved binder doodle Stick Figure John, passed away this week. Over his short life, John appeared on many binders, often without people realizing his name. Quite often he could be seen dancing like there was no tomorrow. Unfortunately for John, there isn't one. A memorial will be held this Sunday when he is carried out in the trash.
Non-Death:
The world was stunned this week to learn that Art Linkletter is still alive. A television and radio legend, Art hosted several different shows, including People Are Funny and House Party. Well known for the comedic interviews he did with children, this was later reworked in Kids Say the Darndest Things. A friend of Walt Disney he appeared in many Disney shows as well. At one time he even put out a set of Children's Encyclopedias that bore his name. While everyone is reeling from the news of your longevity, let me be the first to say, congratulations and here's to another 97 years.

This post is great. Where do you get your ideas? I wish I was this clever!!
Copyboy March 5, 2010 at 12:37 PM
I had NO idea magneto died!!!! That sucks!!!!! I agree you've been on a roll with some really creativly cool posts.
Pat Tillett March 5, 2010 at 1:03 PM
I always felt that "Stick Figure John" was a poor role model, and contributed greatly to the rise of anorexia among young people.
Cal's Canadian Cave of Coolness March 5, 2010 at 7:59 PM
I hear 'patriotism' was institutionalized and 'common sense' is on life support.
Now THAT is clever.
I am sorry. That came from the 'Well of My Bitterness'.
Joe Cap March 5, 2010 at 10:09 PM
I don't know how you come up with this stuff, I love it because it is funny, and I hate you for making me jealous!
Rawknrobyn.blogspot.com March 5, 2010 at 11:30 PM
That Tom Redding really gets around. I could swear I dated him.
Chivalry must have had a healthier existence in Idaho, cuz it's been dead on the West Coast for a while.
California Keys March 6, 2010 at 2:37 PM
I remember when he hosted 'Kids Say The Darndest Things'.... But he was a lot blacker and he would wear the craziest sweaters.... And had a crazy obsession for pudding pops....
Reputation@Stake March 6, 2010 at 3:03 PM
I absolutely love your obituary posts. And not just because I'm morbid, but because they're so funny. And even though I know it's coming, I still get surprised by your "shocked that he's still alive" entry, and it always makes me laugh. There are a number of people that I am shocked to see alive. (Me included.) May things continue to die, so that we may see more of your posts! (Sorry, that was a little mean. I apologize to any dead people I may have offended.) Keep them coming TS.
And thanks for your comments on my site. Always good to see you.

Smogus was een Nederlandse nu-metalband uit Sassenheim, die bestond tussen 1995 en 2006.

Biografie
In 1995 werd de band opgericht door Daniël de Jongh, Jaap van Duijvenbode, Jeroen Bax en Ruben Bandstra. Tijdens de opnames van hun debuutplaat, Everybody's fucked up twice, in 2000 kwamen zij in contact met Wiebe van den Ende en Arno Dreef, die op dat moment in de, lokaal succesvolle, band Ganesha zaten. Toen Ganesha stopte, besloten de twee zich bij Smogus te voegen.

De band ging bijna direct de studio in om een tweetal demo's op te nemen, die door WOTNXT Records werd uitgegeven als split-ep met de Leidse band Griffin. De demo sloeg goed aan en de band tekende een contract bij Mojo Concerts. Dit leverde ze optredens op in het voorprogramma van Ill Niño, Disturbed en Static X en optredens op grote festivals als Ozzfest en Lowlands.

In augustus 2002 verscheen het eerste echte resultaat van de band, de Smogus-ep, bij platenmaatschappij BMG. De ep kreeg goede kritieken en behaalde een goede verkoop, met name door verkoop na afloop van de concerten. Ondertussen speelde de band regelmatig in steeds grotere zalen. Ontevreden met de steun en promotie die de band kreeg vanuit BMG besloot de band het contract te ontbinden en de productie van het album in eigen hand te nemen. In 2003 ging de band de studio in, om het album op te nemen met gitarist Arno Dreef als producer.

Op 15 mei 2004 werd het album No Matter What the Outcome gepresenteerd in de Melkweg, Amsterdam. Het album werd uitgegeven door het kleine The Electric Co. dat gelieerd is aan Universal Records. Hoewel de single en videoclip van het nummer Don't care nog regelmatig te zien zijn op The Box, bleek het album, mede doordat de nu-metalrage grotendeels was overgewaaid, echter niet het succes te brengen waarop gehoopt gehoopt was. Hierop besloot ook Mojo het contract met de band op te zeggen.

De band besloot het over een andere boeg te gooien en een akoestische tour te doen. Van deze optredens verscheen in 2005 een dvd onder de titel Live & Unplugged. Het bleek het laatste wapenfeit van de band, die zich in 2006 besloot op te heffen. Op 7 juli 2006 speelde de band haar laatste optreden op het podium van OJC Fascinus in thuisdorp Sassenheim.

Na Smogus
Zanger Daniël de Jongh zong na het uiteengaan van Smogus in Cilice en Fivelastwords. Sinds 2010 is hij zanger van de Nederlandse metalband Textures.

Zanger Wiebe van den Ende, gitarist Arno Dreef en bassist Jeroen Bax begonnen samen de poprockband 2daysonmilk. Los hiervan is Bax ook actief in de metalband Apocrypha. Arno Dreef runt tevens een opnamestudio in Rijnsaterwoude, waar hij, onder andere, werkte aan opnamen van GEM en de debuutplaat van Krystl.

Drummer Ruben Bandstra is tegenwoordig te horen als drummer in de band Soulbeach.

Bandleden
 Daniël de Jongh (Dani) - zang
 Wiebe van den Ende (YB) - raps
 Jaap van Duijvenbode (Jaypee) - gitaar
 Arno Dreef (Arnd-h) - gitaar
 Jeroen Bax (Baxy) - basgitaar

Detailed Notes on Kratom Powder
Kratom powder is often in contrast to java in its own natural healing ability. It's an evergreen shrub which grows throughout much of southeast Asia. For centuries, the bark of the tree has been used as a medicinal treatment for a variety of ailments. Today, it's often employed as a dietary supplement, owing to its unique properties, but its own history of helping pain control goes back at least five thousand years. These days, it is more commonly used as a substitute pain treatment remedy for a huge array of conditions.
Kratom comes in the leaves of the Asiatic Malayan kratom tree. Kratom is indigenous to Thailand and other areas of Southeast Asia, in which it's used by the people for hundreds of years. Kratom is used primarily as an Asian treatment for arthritis and muscular pain. In the USA, kratom powder is available in pill, powder, and tea type.
In Thailand, kratom powder may be sold under the name"cesspool kratom" or"tiger kratom," owing to its taste and odor. The leaves of this kratom shrub are dried, cracked, and then made into a powder, in which it's used to make a variety of types of beverages, such as tea. Kratom powder may be mixed with hot milk, honey, or other additives, or utilized in place of java in a yummy iced coffee drink. Kratom tea may also be obtained by ingesting it in the regular form, or additional to food (as in kratom cookies, or Thai salad).
Some kratom comes in the root only, but others come from the underground leaves and stalks. In Thailand, however, the leaves and stems are used mainly for tea, as well as other programs, including the treatment of arthritis, muscle fatigue, anxiety, depression, fatigue, mild stomach aches, and nausea, sleep disorders, and urinary ailments. The kratom also has positive effects on mood and energy, sexual performance, and body temperature. Kratom has been shown to help limit the appetite, and boost vitality.
Side effects of kratom use include increased bleeding, constipation, dizziness, mouth dryness, flu-like symptoms, irritability, difficulty sleeping, vomiting, sweating, and body heat. In high dosages, users have also reported improved strength, irritability, aggression, nausea, nausea, flushing, nervousness, mood swings, and changes in blood pressure and heart rate. At low doses, users experience restlessness, a decrease in appetite, headaches, decreased libido, mood swings, increased bleeding, and chest pain. Paradoxically, users have reported allergic reactions like asthma and seizures. Nevertheless, all these unwanted effects can subside after the body adjusts to kratom's effect. People using kratom shouldn't take it whenever they have other medications such as Tylenol or other nitrates, bronchodilators, medications for controlling seizures, or even a heart or blood pressure disorder, and should never make kratom right into a regular habit.Read more about Kratom Capsule here.
Kratom is normally used as a dietary supplement or because of its pain relief consequences. Its effect is believed to be most effective when used in conjunction with other therapies such as massage, diet, and meditation. Some studies also imply that kratom could slow the development of opioid use disorder. So far, there's absolutely no reliable information to support this claim. Kratom users who experience mild to moderate pain, including mild to moderate chronic pain, may discover that carrying kratom helps them handle their pain more effectively. But just like any other medication, kratom could possibly be abused, particularly when mixed with other drugs like opioids or alcohol.

Dunblane Cathedral is a beautiful medieval church in Dunblane which dates as far back as the 12th century.
Dunblane Cathedral receives high but well earned praise for a building smaller than some English parish churches, lacking the architectural flourishes and cohesion of most other cathedrals; and one which only narrowly survived the threat of demolition to make way for the railway.
The tower is from the late 11th century, offset, and slightly squint on the south. Admire the Romanesque arched windows in the lower storeys, the upper stage and parapet which date from 1500, bearing the arms of Bishop Chisholm, which may originally have been freestanding.
The Nave, dating back to 1240 is possibly the finest part of the cathedral. It is eight bays long, tall and narrow, with aisles and a galleried clerestory. Its principal attraction is its simple proportions, clustered shafts, and graceful clerestory windows in the west wall.
The beautifully vaulted lower storey, often called the Lady Chapel, was probably used as a chapter house. The exterior of the cathedral is, with the exception of the west front and the tower, simply an expression of its interior. The west front, squeezed between two hefty, asymmetrical buttresses is the composition so admired by John Ruskin and consists of three stages tapering toward a slender apex. The thickened ground floor is given over to the magnificent west door and its flanking pointed arches. It is a peculiarity of this cathedral that its principal processional doorway faces the riverside, thus making impossible the grand views and aspect of the west front normally available in others.

Sen. McConnell slams Nike for pulling Betsy Ross shoes
(CNN) – Nike's decision to pull a new sneaker just before it hit store shelves Monday is drawing some criticism.
The "Air Max One Quick Strike Fourth of July" had already been delivered to retailers when Nike asked for them all back.
The Wall Street Journal reported the decision was made after former NFL player and Nike endorser Colin Kaepernick complained about the design being potentially offensive.
The shoe features an 18th century version of the American flag, with a circle of 13 stars that represent the original 13 colonies.
On Tuesday GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell slammed Nike's decision to cancel the sneaker.
"I think we've got a problem. I hope Nike either releases these shoes or some other shoemaker picks up the flag, puts it on a pair of shoes and starts selling it. I'll make the first order."
Betsy Ross designed that famous flag during the American Revolution.
And according to the Smithsonian. it was used as the country's official banner from 1777 to 1795.
Lights on U.S 41 turned off as a safety precaution

Quick Exit: Is Candace Really Leaving MTV Floribama Shore?
After a night gone wrong, she started packing her bags
Tina Smithers Peckham tinasmithers 07/27/2018
A celebratory night out quickly turned sour for our MTV Floribama Shore friends, and Kirk's arrest wasn't even the half of it. (Okay, maybe it was half.)
The other part responsible for a good night gone bad? An expletive-laced quarrel between Candace and Gus. Typically the voice of reason in the house, Candace wasn't having it after Kirk got booted from Tootsies for throwing crackers at the head of a heckler.
"I don't understand why Kirk is the only one being thrown out of the club," she said.
After the Memphis native confronted the police, calling their decision "bulls**t," Gus piped up, defending the cops. Kirk was indeed slinging Saltines, which could be considered battery in some cases if the victim of said cracker-tossing were to press charges.
Candace wasn't having that either. "We are roommates. You're supposed to have your roommate's back," she said of Gus, who was just trying to celebrate his 23rd birthday in peace (and a JeriGus airbrushed tank).
While Kirk actually sided with Gus, understanding that his actions (throwing crackers) have consequences (getting kicked out), Candace's attitude was still "on 10" when the gang got to Coyote Ugly. And all Gus wanted to do was enjoy his birthday party.
"Talk about a birthday," he said. "I have to deal with Kirk getting kicked out of the bar. I have Candace coming at me saying, 'F*ck you, b*tch.' It's my birthday -- I'm supposed to have the attention. At this point, this is just a birthday I wanna forget."
The crew left its second bar of the night when Kirk got in trouble with a different PCB bar troll, and after he apologized, Gus requested the same from Candace, who swiftly declined. "I don't owe nobody an apology," she told the birthday boy. "We all should stick together, but you stuck with the cops."
Back at the shore house, the police arrived to arrest Kirk, and Candace opted to start packing.
"You know what? It's time for me to leave," she declared.
Should Candace apologize to Gus, and more importantly -- could she be finished with Floribama once and for all? (Say it ain't so!) Sound off with your thoughts, and catch an all-new episode Monday at 10/9c.

Jingjing und Chacha (警 警 und 察察, ein Wortspiel für das chinesische Wort Polizei (auf Deutsch ungefähr "Polipoli" und "Zeizei"), Chinesisch: 警察; pinyin: jǐngchá) sind die Karikatur-Maskottchen der Abteilung Internetüberwachung des Büros für öffentliche Sicherheit in Shenzhen, Volksrepublik China. Am 22. Januar 2006 erstmals erschienen, werden sie unter anderem benutzt, um chinesische Internet-Nutzer zu informieren, was im chinesischen Internet aufzurufen oder zu schreiben erlaubt ist und was nicht. Laut dem Direktor der Shenzhen-Internet-Polizei, "[veröffentlichten wir] das Bild der Internet-Polizei in Form einer Karikatur [...], damit alle Internet-Nutzer wissen, dass das Internet kein Platz außerhalb des Gesetzes ist [und dass] die Internet-Polizei in jeglichem Online-Verhalten Ordnung halten wird." Nebst Pornografie, Glücksspiel und Betrug ist darunter auch alles zu verstehen, was die soziale Ordnung und die Stabilität des Staates untergräbt.

Die Shenzhen-Polizei plant, Bilder von den beiden Charakteren auf der Hauptseite aller Shenzhen-Websites und Bulletin Board-Systeme zu platzieren und eine Online-Polizei-Präsenz zu schaffen, mit dem Ziel, die Bürger daran zu erinnern, ihr eigenes Verhalten in Übereinstimmung mit dem chinesischen Gesetz zu kontrollieren, genauso wie eine wirkliche Polizei-Präsenz in der realen Welt. Jeder dieser "Cybercops" hat einen Blog und ein Chat-Fenster auf deren Website, durch die chinesische Internetnutzer mit ihnen kommunizieren können und sich über die Gesetze und Vorschriften im Zusammenhang mit dem Internet schlaumachen können, und wo sie den neuesten Stand der Internet-Richtlinien finden. Auf der Internetseite besteht auch die Möglichkeit, mit dem Instant-Messenger Tencent QQ oder über einen Blog Fragen an Jingjing und Chacha zu stellen. Nebst den Angelegenheiten über Internet-Zensur, behandeln sie auch Fälle in Bezug auf Computerviren, Computerkriminalität und andere solche Belange.

Im August 2007 kündigte die Pekinger Polizei eine ähnliche Kampagne mit animierten Offizieren an. Die Pekinger Version der Charaktere erscheint jede halbe Stunde auf 13 der wichtigsten Webportale Chinas und zeigt Nachrichten über Internetgesetze und Verhaltensweisen an.

Kritik
Trotz dieser zusätzlichen Funktionen berichtete die China Digital Times, dass ihr von einem Beamten des Präsidiums mitgeteilt wurde, dass der Hauptzweck von Jingjing und Chacha immer noch nur die "Einschüchterung" der Nutzer sei, und sie offen daran erinnere, "ihr Online-Verhalten selbst zu regulieren".

Lacho reacts to GB win
Forward Robert Lachowicz says this afternoon's 3-1 victory over Slovenia in the World Championship Division 1 Group A in Budapest was one of the most special games in his Great Britain career.
Lachowicz, who was part of last season's promotion-winning squad in Belfast, won his 45th cap as GB stunned the top seeds with an outstanding performance.
"That was pretty special and it ranks up there as one of the best since I have been playing for GB," said Lachowicz.
"It was great to test ourselves against one of the higher-ranked nations in the world and brilliant that we came out on top.
"It was a hard-working performance and we can take so much from it in many ways. We have a great group of guys and the spirit is fantastic as usual."
GB have no game tomorrow and return to action on Tuesday when they face Kazakhstan at 4pm (3pm UK time).
"We have already shown we can surprise a few people with this result," continued Lachowicz.
"Now we just need to get our heads down and carry on in the same fashion as we played today."

One fine day heading to JJ weekend market ,in Bangkok… I came across some antique vendors and their displays. There was lots of inspiring things there… the arrangement of old brass locks really caught my eye, and my imagination.
This is painted on a raw paper, which takes the paint quite differently from a pressed paper. The result worked out well for this subject. The close up picture is of higher resolution to be able to get a better feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting. Then there's the work in progress.


Author Laura Macy's fictionalized autobiographical memoir, Project Reunion—It's All About Me!, is a quirky, humorous take on preparing for a fortieth high school reunion. Readers will be able to relate to Macy's humor and story, which highlights universal experiences, insecurities, and the need to be able to laugh about them.
The book is formatted as a journal that covers the 337 days from the time that Laura receives her reunion invitation until the date of the big event. For Laura, life is all about pointy shoes, mascara, and creative beauty tricks, saving money on Botox by not frowning when she receives a speeding ticket and combining weight training, step aerobics, and housework by carrying full baskets of laundry up the stairs with her two-year-old granddaughter along for the ride.
It is a fast-moving, fun book that offers a tone to which her readers can relate, keeping readers laughing from cover to cover. Ultimately, Macy's story reminds us to approach life with a sense of humor: life is so much better if we can laugh at ourselves out loud and giggle smartly at our adversaries. Inevitably, readers will be anxious for the sequel.


Integrity. Service to the community. "From its humble beginning in 1911, Bowser-Morner has always been committed to the timeless pattern of safety, hard work, innovative solutions, and providing value to clients." How do you convey that kind of soft sell? The company's 100th Anniversary provided an opportunity to thank all stakeholders, including employees and their families, customers, and the community. The Arment Group made sure it also included new customers. The company is now reaping the benefits of a complete marketing strategy, from PR and email programs, to new ads and digital communications.
When you're a really good company, you need really good marketing. Oppotunity taken.


The Washington Elementary School is haunted by the ghost of a 13-year-old boy who walks around in the halls at night. Other activity includes cold spots, the sound of knocking, and scratching sounds, even when no one is around. It is unknown how the boy died, or if he is the only spirit at the school.


"Off The Post: Inching Closer to the Future"
First off, I want to explain that I am aware that it has been almost two weeks since I wrote my last blog. Being that we are in the month of May, although that means fans are in store for intense games of hockey during the NHL playoffs, it also means final research papers and exams are due, and I simply did not have the time to write about my beloved Islanders.
I have to say, for what I have gotten to see, the playoffs have been amazing. I am pulling for the Hawks to gain some momentum at home ice these next two games. Although I am not a big Pens fan (even though I want the Isles to follow the mold in which they built their team) I feel that a Pens vs. Blackhawks would be an exciting final series. Two young teams with young stars fighting for the cup. At the same time, a rematch of Detroit vs. Pittsburgh would be wild as well.
I have to ask though, as an Isles fan, what emotion strikes you when you realize that Bill Guerin, Miroslav Satan, and Ruslan Fedotenko may be competing for the cup, and possibly winning it?
But anyway, back to Islander country.
Through my two week absence the Islanders have courted Matt Duchene and John Tavares. Fans knew that Duchene would be making a visit to the coliseum, but Tavares was kept to a serious secret. Chris Botta's blog at http://www.islanderspointblank.com/ posed a theory that has me firmly believing that this is the real deal.
Botta states that it is very possible that the Isles were getting to know Tavares with the same, unbiased intention that they are getting acquainted with Hedman, Duchene, and possibly several other prospects. But Botta also makes another very interesting observation. No one on the Island with the exception of the organization themselves knew that he was visiting. Not even Canada was aware that he was making a pit-stop in Nassau County.
The Islanders have been incredibly quiet in regards to what they may or may not do on draft day. This had led to bloggers, reporters, experts, and analysts making their own assumptions as to what might be up Garth Snow's sleeve. He's not afraid of making a trade as evident in his maneuvers to get Josh Bailey last year. He's not afraid to deal a first round pick as he did to get Ryan Smyth in his first year behind the desk at the front office. However, he has also remained firm in his promise to build through youth, avoiding free agents (or not getting upset over them avoiding us) last summer and injecting several young skaters into the line up.
Some say he's going to go with Duchene or make a deal that will bring in Duchene and Hedman by trading with Colorado. Scenarios are fun and allow the "what-if" factors to float through our minds. But bottom line, I just don't see anything crazy happening. Unless something unreal comes to Garth before he makes his selection, I think he has a decision made and is sitting back, laughing at the hysteria that Islander fans are in. And why not? It's got ticket sales up and fans from around the league checking what is going on with the Islanders on a daily basis.
As an English major, one thing I am commonly doing when I read a story, lyrics, or watch a movie, is look for a deeper meaning. Sometimes there isn't any; it is what it is. But the fact that not one person knew Tavares was coming to the Coliseum, making it a surprise for writers and fans alike, allows me to believe that he's indirectly telling everyone, "Yeah, Hedman, Duchene, and others will be stopping by, but we're going to take Tavares." Snow is simply building momentum for the heavily anticipated draft before making a decision that can completely alter this team's future.
If Tavares was just being shown around the same way that Duchene has with Hedman and any others waiting their turn, wouldn't he have treated John the same and just told everyone he was coming?
I think so. But he didn't. He surprised us with what almost every fan wants; bringing Tavares to Long Island.
Nonsense. They need to trade that pick for 5 thirds, 3 fourths and 2 fifths.
Some may call you ridiculous, others may call you a realist. I guess it depends on which side of the table you're sitting on.
Just joking. You think this this whole Wang thing and moving the team is for real? I feel like I only get a fraction of the real story on here sometimes.

Q: How to improve the performance of an OpenLayers based API containing a large number of layers? I have a GIS SDK with WMS layers and Vector layers (with information from Geoserver).
I have methods for setting a style map, but I have a performance problem.
When I set same style for 30 layers, for example, the UI gets very slow because the 30 layers have to refresh.
Is it possible to reduce the refresh time for the layers?
I have been thinking about some this, but I need some advice:
a) Is it possible to refresh vector layers without downloading the whole WFS data again? I just want to set a style with some rules.
b) Is it possible to reduce the refreshing time of WMS layers, maybe juggling with the number/size of the tiles (I am using single tile now)?
c) I tried creating a layer group in Geoserver, but I don't know how I can apply a style to each of its layers. I don't even know if it is possible to manipulate the layers individually when they are in a layer group. Is it possible?
When I change zooms or when I pan the map, it is very slow too. I think it is related to this question, so I leave it as a P.S.

A: a. For WFS, I already done an answer somewhere else. If OpenLayers 2, use strategy please.
b. For WMS slow, it's not about GeoServer "slowness" than the fact you use so much layers and it acts on network >> See this twitter reaction to make some calculations.

#webgis please stop publishing maps with many active tiled layers: 20 layers X 20 tiles per screen X 30ko per tile = 12 Mo for each zoom !— Michaël Douchin (@kimaidou) 24 Octobre 2014
WMS single tiles or multiple tiles is not really the issue: it will overload  your network. With single tile, maybe less tiles to download but GeoServer will take time to render each layers. For lowering charge, you can try to use GeoWebCache (a tile cache server to speedup your WMS calls)
c. For layer groups in GeoServer, just apply the style you want on each layer and then make the group. Edit: you seem to want to apply styles using client side (at run time). In a layer group or not, it's not the best idea: you can't cache images and so, it will overload again your application.
IMO, your solution is not technical.
The best solution: make choice on your application and do not display all layers. This opinion clearly comes from this good series about Why Map Portals Don't Work. You have to think about the requirements: it's not possible for end users to correctly read 30 layers of infos.

A: Vector layers have a 'redraw' method, which can be executed after changing style. After that, only re-rendering will occur and layer data remains unchanged. For example:
layer.styleMap.styles.default.defaultStyle.strokeColor = '#AAAAAA';
layer.styleMap.styles.default.defaultStyle.fillColor = '#ABCDEF';
layer.redraw();

Marshall Mason has hit rock bottom, hiding out from the press at the Fortune Bay Resort while he heals from a motorcycle accident that has cost him his career, and possibly his children. He spirals down into depression until one day, a woman knocks on the cottage door.
A Fortune Bay Christmas novella.
One year ago, Star's van, her childhood home and only inheritance from her mother, broke down in Fortune Bay. In case her mother's hand had guided her there, she decided to stay for a while. She'd gotten a job in the café but that certainly wasn't any reason to stay. And although everyone was very nice, there was no one really—special.
But now she was excited to be moving into the Murphy's cabin. Everyone who lived there seemed to find their happily-ever-after, even if it wasn't always exactly what they'd thought it would be.
Harry Brewster had kept his old buddy Marshall's band on the road for 20 years. The life was getting old, and he was happy to settle down, but did it have to be in the middle of nowhere? Did it have to be in Fortune Bay?
He'd never been the one in the band to get the girls, and although there had been a few women in his life over the years, there had never been anyone like Star. She was the yin to his yang and just might be the one to help this bottled-up business man slow down and smell the incense.

Peta Roberts, a life story professional who does it all.
In this episode, Peta tells us about how documenting her own family's history led her to a career in personal history, and how a newspaper advertisement jump-started her business.
A climb in the Andes with an Argentinian ski guide led Peta to an enormous oral history project. Pure serendipity, mixed with a healthy dose curiosity, led to the creation and publication of a genealogical index.
Peta worked with The old Welsch families living in the Chubut province of Argentina (which answers the question, why do they speak Welsh in South America?)
From this project came collaboration with historian Michele Langfield to document all of the Welsh Patagonians who had come to Australia. None of them were related to Peta's family, but the work fueled her interest in helping others preserve their life stories.
Peta describes family history as a three-legged stool
One leg is the genealogy: names, dates, places.
Another is genetic DNA testing, which can link us to people we never knew we were related to (for more on this topic, listen to our talk with scientist Mike Tones).
And the third leg of the stool? Family stories.
For the Welsh Patagonian Australian oral history project, Peta created a relationship map to show how the families knew each other, married into each other's families, and came to Australia together on the same ship.
Can you use a relationship map to illustrate connections in your client's story?
Funding sources: in this case, it came from academia. The book is available on Amazon.
Personal historian means different things to different people
Peta placed an ad in a local newspaper and clients called with various needs. She adapted to meet the needs of the people who wanted her help.
recording interviews and creating a book from the transcripts
working with a client's letters
digitizing, organizing and preserving photographs
How do you build the skills you need for different projects?
by doing
by consulting experts (e.g. in Peta's case, she reached out to a paper conservationist about preserving old, frail photos)
Why it's a mistake to use the "hunter gatherer" technique for orgainizing photos. Pet describes her systematic yet flexible approach.
[Listen to Martie McNabb of Memories Out of the Box talk about finding the stories behind the photos, documents and mementos]
Sometimes it comes down to being brave, establishing a clear understanding of what the client wants, and then deliver. What is the client's pain point?
Search Amazon for models of what you want to create–in Peta's case, it was publishing a book of letters in the native handwriting (not transcriptions).
How Peta structured her winning newspaper advertisement:
"Want to give the perfect gift? Get personal. Tell them your life history. Record your audio, video, or write your life story in a book."
We talk about what makes a good ad, and what doesn't.
What is an ethical will?
Usually in letter form, it's a way for a client to pass on their experiences, values, and the stories of how they overcame struggles. Smaller than life story projects.
Trust documents are bare bones, but an ethical will says who I am. It's what you want your loved ones to know and understand." —Susan Turnbull of Personal Legacy Advisors, as quoted in a New York Times article
Peta's strategy:
Peta wrote to attorneys to explain how she could help their clients; one of the attorneys brought Peta in to give a talk to his clients. (In an earlier episode, Dhyan Atkinson talked about using referral partners to compound your marketing efforts.)

Bago Region (, ; formerly Pegu Division and Bago Division) is an administrative region of Myanmar, located in the southern central part of the country. It is bordered by Magway Region and Mandalay Region to the north; Kayin State, Mon State and the Gulf of Martaban to the east; Yangon Region to the south and Ayeyarwady Region and Rakhine State to the west. It is located between 46°45'N and 19°20'N and 94°35'E and 97°10'E. It has a population of 4,867,373 (2014).

History
According to legend, two Mon princes from Thaton founded the city of Bago in 573 AD. They saw a female Hamsa standing on the back of a male Hamsa on an island in a huge lake. Believing this was an auspicious omen, the princes built a city called Hanthawady (Pali: Hamsavati) on the edge of the lake.

The Arab geographer Ibn Khordadbeh mentions the city around 850 AD. The Mon capital was still in Thaton at that time. The Thiruvalangadu plate describe Rajendra Chola I, the Chola Emperor from South India, as having conquered "Kadaram" in the fourteenth year of his reign- 1028 CE. According to one interpretation, Kadaram refers to Bago. More modern interpretations understand Kadaram to be Kedah in modern day Malaysia, instead of Bago. The earliest reliable external record of Bago comes from Chinese sources that mention Jayavarman VII adding Pegu to the territory of the Khmer Empire in 1195. The Bamar from Bagan ruled the area in 1056. After the collapse of Bagan to the Mongols in 1287, the Mon regained their independence.

From 1369–1539, Hanthawady was the capital of the Hanthawaddy Kingdom, which covered all of what is now lower Burma. The area came under Burman control again in 1539, when it was annexed by King Tabinshwehti of Kingdom of Taungoo. The kings of Taungoo made Bago their royal capital from 1539–1599, and used it as a base for their repeated invasions of Siam. As a major seaport, the city was frequently visited by Europeans, who commented on its magnificence. The Burmese capital was relocated to Ava in 1634. In 1740, the Mon revolted and briefly regained their independence, but Burmese King Alaungpaya sacked and completely destroyed the city (along with Mon independence) in 1757.

Burmese King Bodawpaya (1782–1819) rebuilt Bago, but by then the river had shifted course, cutting the city off from the sea. It never regained its previous importance. After the Second Anglo-Burmese War, the British annexed Bago in 1852. In 1862, with the formation of the province of British Burma, the capital was moved to Yangon.

Administrative divisions

Bago Region occupies an area of  divided into the four districts of Bago, Pyay, Tharrawaddy and Taungoo. Bago, the divisional capital, is the fourth largest town of Burma. Other major cities include Taungoo and Pyay.

Bago Region's seal are two sibling hintha (Hamsa), due to historic Mon influences in the area.

Government

Executive
Bago Region Government

Legislature

Judiciary
Bago Region High Court

Transport
Bago Region is served by Pyay Airport.

Demographics

The total population of Bago Region is 4,863,455 according to 2014 Burma Census with Bamar, Karen, Mon, Chin, Rakhine, Shan, South Asians, Chinese, and Pa-O ethnic groups represented. Burmese language is the lingua franca.

Religion
According to the 2014 Myanmar Census, Buddhists make up 93.5% of Bago Region's population, forming the largest religious community there. Minority religious communities include Christians (2.9%), Muslims (1.2%), Hindus (2.1%), and animists (0.1%) who collectively comprise the remainder of Bago Region's population. 0.3% of the population listed no religion, other religions, or were otherwise not enumerated.

According to the State Sangha Maha Nayaka Committee's 2016 statistics, 50,198 Buddhist monks were registered in Bago Region, comprising 9.4% of Myanmar's total Sangha membership, which includes both novice samanera and fully-ordained bhikkhu. The majority of monks belong to the Thudhamma Nikaya (77.3%), followed by Shwegyin Nikaya (16.7%), with the remainder of monks belonging to other small monastic orders. 5,100 thilashin were registered in Bago Region, comprising 8.4% of Myanmar's total thilashin community.

Economy
The division's economy is strongly dependent on the timber trade. Taungoo, in the northern end of the Bago Region, is bordered by mountain ranges, home to teak and other hardwoods. Another natural resource is petroleum. The major crop is rice, occupying over two-thirds of the available agricultural land.  Other major crops include betel nut, sugarcane, maize, groundnut, sesamum, sunflower, beans and pulses, cotton, jute, rubber, tobacco, tapioca, banana, Nipa palm and toddy. Industry includes fisheries, salt, ceramics, sugar, paper, plywood, distilleries, and monosodium glutamate.

The division has a small livestock breeding and fisheries sector, and a small industrial sector. In 2005, it had over 4 million farm animals; nearly  of fish and prawn farms; and about 3000 private factories and about 100 state owned factories.

The major tourist sites of the Bago Region can be reached as a day trip from Yangon.

Hydropower plant
The Shwegyin Dam is in the eastern part Bago Region. It is a  long,  wide and  thick zone-type dam with a water storage capacity of 2,078,417 megalitres . The three concrete conduit pipes are  in length,  in width and  in height each. The intake infrastructure is  long,  wide and  high. The spillway is  long,  wide and  high. Two compressed steel pipe lines at the dam are  in diameter and  in length each. The power plant is  long,  wide and  high. It is equipped with four 18.75-MW Francis vertical shaft turbines. It can generate 262 million KW hours per year.

The construction of the dam was launched in 2003. The first power station was opened on 29 December 2009, the second on 25 March 2011, the third on 2 June 2011 and the fourth on 21 July 2011. It was inaugurated on 22 October 2011.

Educational opportunities in Myanmar are extremely limited outside the main cities of Yangon and Mandalay. In 2005, Bago Region had 578 post-primary schools, 119 middle schools and 132 high schools.
The following is a summary of the division public school system for the academic year of 2002–2003.

The division is home to one national university, Pyay Technological University and two local universities, Pyay University and Taungoo University.

Health
The general state of health care in Myanmar is poor. The military government spends anywhere from 0.5% to 3% of the country's GDP on health care, consistently ranking among the lowest in the world. Although health care is nominally free, in reality, patients have to pay for medicine and treatment, even in public clinics and hospitals. Public hospitals lack many of the basic facilities and equipment. Moreover, the health care infrastructure outside of Yangon and Mandalay is extremely poor. For example, in 2003, Bago Region had less than a quarter of hospital beds than Yangon Region whose population was just slighter greater. More shocking still, in 2005, this division of five million had only 399 doctors in its public hospitals.

More black women turning to guns for self-defense
By | Fox News
An attendee passes by a large banner advertising a handgun during the NRA convention at the Georgia World Congress Center on April 27, 2017, in Atlanta. (Curtis Compton/Atlanta Journal-Constitution via AP)
Firearms instructors are reporting an increase in the number of black women learning how to use guns in self-defense courses around the country -- and the reasons are varied.
"Minority women are definitely increasing in numbers," Rick Ector, a firearms instructor, said of attendees at his weekly course just outside of Detroit.
"Women overall -- in particular, minority women -- are looking toward guns to protect themselves against crime," Ector told Fox News. "Women are definitely drivers in the market right now."
Other cities, like Savannah, Dallas and Cincinnati, have also seen an uptick in the number of minority women signing up for gun-training courses.
In Georgia, for instance, trainer Marchelle Tigner referred to the observation as a "movement" in an interview with the Guardian newspaper.
Tigner, who launched Trigger Happy Firearm Instruction in November, told the paper she had to expand room in her classes, which sold out after promoting them through social media.
"The growth of these classes – I never expected it," she told the newspaper. "It shows me how unsafe these women feel in their communities."
Stacy Washington -- a conservative African-American columnist suspended last week by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch after she defended the National Rifle Association from comparisons to ISIS -- also noted a trend of more minority women learning how to use guns.
"I believe the reason we're seeing more women of color joining this movement to use firearms is because they're realizing this is not a political issue," Washington told Fox News. "It really never has been. It's about personal safety and protection."
'I believe the reason we're seeing more women of color joining this movement to use firearms is because they're realizing this is not a political issue.'
— Stacy Washington
"There is definitely an uptick in ownership among minority women," said Washington. "A firearm is an equalizer for women because women have a harder time defending themselves when they're attacked by a man; men have more body mass."
Washington was suspended by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch on Friday after a column titled "Guns and the Media" disputed an anti-NRA article that argued since more Americans die from guns than from ISIS, the Second Amendment advocacy group is the greater danger.
Washington said she was suspended in an email from her editor, accusing her of not disclosing a "paid or unpaid professional affiliation" with the NRA. Washington said after she informed her editor she had no such affiliation with the NRA, he "shifted the criticism to the column, saying there were factual errors." When Washington questioned what those errors might be, she said she never got a response.
The reasons cited for an increase in gun ownership among minority women are varied. Ector noted an increase in rape cases in the Detroit area and said, "There's a huge rape problem here in the state of Michigan." When Ector started as an instructor 10 years ago, he said he typically encountered only one woman in a class of about 15. Now, he said, "women make up half the classes."
Other minority women, meanwhile, have cited the current political landscape -- in particular, Trump's presidency -- as a reason to learn how to protect themselves, claiming racists have become more blatant since Trump took office and they feel unsafe.
Niecee X, one of the founders of the Black Women's Defense League in Dallas, told the Guardian that in the wake of Trump's campaign and presidency, "A lot of people are feeling unsafe."
A representative from the Black Women's Defense League declined to comment when contacted Monday.
John Lott, of the Crime Prevention Research Center, published data in July showing a general upward trend in the percentage of people with permits to carry a concealed firearm are women in seven states -- including Arizona, Florida, Indiana and Louisiana.
In a paper titled, "Concealed Carry Permit Holders Across the United States: 2016," Lott wrote that, "While whites still hold the vast majority of permits, the number of black permit holders has grown more than twice as quickly as the number of white permit holders."
"Concealed carry has increased most rapidly among black females," Lott concluded. "From 2000 to 2015, the rate of growth was 3.81 times faster than among white females."
In a statement to Fox News, NRA spokeswoman Catherine Mortensen said: "Women are the fastest growing segment of firearms buyers in the country."
"The NRA is a natural home for women firearms owners," Mortensen said. "Increasingly, women today don't want to rely on a spouse or neighbor for protection. They want to be able to protect themselves and their families."

Entropy Editions Round-Up : "The Beast" By Danielle Chenette
On June 10, 2021 By Ryan C. (fourcolorapocalypse)
Continuing with out perusal of publisher Justin Skarhus' Entropy Editions offerings, we come to catalogue number EE03, Los Angeles-based cartoonist Danielle Chenette's The Beast, a deceptively "naive" comic that actually wryly and rather expertly deconstructs everything from the role of myth in society to "gun culture" to sibling dynamics to gaming to toxic masculinity — and somehow manages to do it all with a smile on its face and nary a hint of self-important lecturing. In fact, this unassuming little coming-of-age fable is actually, dare I say it, quite a bit of fun.
"Don't go in the woods" is a common enough trope in popular culture — it's even served as the title of at least two films that I'm aware of — but here Chenette cleverly and ingeniously transposes it into the internet age, where stories of things that go bump in the night have been amplified to an absurd degree rather than finally put to rest by the forces of rationality, putting the lie to the quaint hope that we all probably held in the early days of the so-called "information" superhighway. But I suppose I digress.
Or do I? Because the idea of superstition or irrationality manipulated to the benefit of some is also one of the themes Chenette tackles here, albeit in more personalized form than large-scale phenomena such as QAnon. Still, it's part and parcel of everything to unpack in this 32-pager, and while the downright whimsical art style, naturalist dialogue, and freeform, near-intuitive page layouts employed in the telling of this tale might cause one to discount its thematic heft and weight, in reality we've got more than a bit of a velvet glove/iron fist dichotomy at work here — albeit one that lands its punches in, for lack of a better term immediately coming to mind, a decidedly pleasing fashion.
Fear not, though, dear reader, for while your humble critic here may sounds both confused and confusing, Chenette's comic is anything but, and in most key respects stands out as the most traditional of Entropy Editions' releases to date. Sure, at its core one could argue that it's an inherently experimental work in that it densely packs a number of fairly serious subjects and themes into a crisp, even breezy, narrative structure, but I think such a reading could also result from yours truly having been at the review game for so long that I veer into the overly-analytical almost by default. It may, in fact, simply be that Chenette is really good at what she does and is therefore able to grapple with topics of extreme import without belaboring any particular points. You'll know you're being offered plenty to think about here, make no mistake, but you won't feel like you're being forced to think about any of it.
Call it sleight of hand if you must, skill if you're feeling more generous, but either way this comic hits it out of the park in terms of doing exactly what it sets out to do — and its goals and aims are actually quite ambitious, both formally and conceptually. This is just about as self-assured as the art form of cartooning gets, if you'll permit me to speak plainly (and hey, it's my blog, so good luck stopping me), and in a world where the term "highest possible recommendation" gets thrown about far too freely, this is work absolutely worthy of such an accolade.
Are you still here? Forget about my blathering, go order this comic!
