How has 'girlie' blogging informed my edu blogging?
Hi guys, this post is going to be short (yeah right!) and sweet!. I have been beauty (?) and let's say girlie blogging for about ten days now and I have learnt a few things I did not know, so I am going to share them with you.
Beauty/ lifestyle bloggers share their posts a lot. If you follow me on Twitter (@joannacre) you know that I , too, tweet a zillion timeswhen I write a blog post! They suggested I use a website called Buffer, and now I do and it has changed my social media life (hm, let's not go there….). Anyhow, buffer allows you to schedule your tweets (that's what I am interested in), and then you don't have to go on to Twitter to share your stuff manually. I am now scheduling my zillions of Tweets and saving time.
If you have been reading this blog for a while, you know that my pictures are boring, not that grand. Because my vision is not that fantastic either, I have difficulty taking nice pics. Again, the beauty bloggers suggested I use Picmonkey, and I am, and I really like it. It is so easy to use (if I can use it, anyone can use it).
But, I was having difficulty with the colours and I tweeted them saying I don't know what colours I am using (cause I am colourblind), they tweeted me back and sent me a video tutorial (very quickly). They also suggested I look into hex codes. Hex codes?
Hex codes are codes that have been made for colours, so you type in the code, and then you get the colour. Even WordPress uses hex codes when you are designing the header. In order to be able to understand hex codes though, I needed a website that named the colours, and offered the hex codes. I found this great blog which will be linked below and now I know my colours!!
Their Facebook groups are different to the ELT ones I am a member of. They have promo days during which you are encouraged to read and leave comments on other people's blog posts. There is a lot of engagement.
I have pinterest now and bloglovin and I am getting traffic from those websites as well.
I became a member of Amazon associates, so if I talk about a product and someone wants to buy it from amazon, I get a bit of money (cents). If they don't, then that's fine. I clearly mark a product if there is an affiliate link!
So, these are a few things I have learnt during the 'launching' of my 2nd blog. Why a second blog? I talk about planning, beauty, and stuff I am interested in and cannot share here. If you want to check it out, it will be linked below.
So, have a great weekend everyone!! If you have any cool software tips, please let me know.
Congrats on your new blog – I've had a look and I think you're off to a great start. 🙂 I'm really impressed with how you manage it all timewise, but I guess it's a matter of finding time for things that you enjoy. Which is what we should all do more often, I think.
I like Picmonkey too – have used it for some of the visuals in my online course and on the blog. It's my go-to tool for collages. It's a funny coincidence, but I also found out about it from a beauty blogger. 🙂 Re the cool software tips, this isn't a software tip, but I thought I'd suggest that when you add links to other pages in a post you tick the little box that says "open link in a new tab" (or something like that). That way people won't leave your site. It's my pet peeve when people link stuff because I usually assume the page opened in another tab and close it down when I'm done, only to find I've closed down the original page too. I hope that makes sense. 🙂 Anyway, maybe that's just me; it's just a suggestion.
Hey Vedrana! Thanks for the link tip! I already started using it!
Great post!!! I can always use all the advice I can get!!! Thank you so much for the nomination by the way!!

Uttar Pradesh: 14 people booked under new anti-conversion law in Mau district
The complainant alleged that accused Shabab Khan had abducted his 27-year-old daughter with the help of the other accused on her wedding eve.
Dec 04, 2020 · 05:52 pm
Mau district in Uttar Pradesh. | Google Maps
The police in Uttar Pradesh's Mau district on Friday said that they have booked 14 people under the new anti-conversion law, PTI reported.
The police said they booked 38-year-old Shabab Khan alias Rahul and 13 others under the relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Uttar Pradesh Prohibition of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Ordinance. Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel had on November 28 given her assent to the anti-conversion ordinance.
Assistant Superintendent of Police Tribhuvan Nath Tripathi said a first information report was filed on the basis of a complaint by a resident of Molnaganj village. The complainant alleged that Khan had abducted his 27-year-old daughter with the help of the other accused on her wedding eve on November 30. The police said Khan, who was already married, kidnapped the woman with the intent to change her religion.
The Uttar Pradesh Police had on Wednesday made their first arrest under the new legislation that targets "love jihad" – a conspiracy theory used by right-wing groups who accuse Muslim men of using marriage as a lure to force Hindu women to convert to Islam. The accused, identified as Owais Ahmad, was produced before Magistrate Priyanka Anjor in Baheri town on Wednesday evening.
A person found guilty under the new law can be punished with an imprisonment from one to five years and a fine of up to Rs 15, 000. For conversions of minors and women of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes community, there will be a jail term of two to 10 years with a Rs 25,000 penalty.
Apart from Uttar Pradesh, four other BJP-ruled states have also decided to introduce laws aimed at preventing inter-faith marriage. In February, the Centre told the Lok Sabha that no "case of 'love jihad' has been reported by any of the central agencies". Investigations by the National Investigation Agency and the Karnataka Criminal Investigation Department have turned up no evidence for this alleged conspiracy either. The National Commission for Women maintains no data about "love jihad" too.
Haryana notifies rules under anti-conversion law, district magistrates to seek public objections

Onus! can be played anywhere but to get the best gaming experience we do recommend to use a game area as bigger as possible, i.e. 3.2 x 2.9 feet (100 x 90 cm)
Units are represented by cards which have been scaled up to a Centuria (also known as Century) or to a Maniple (also known as Manipulus), representing formations from 80 to 100 men for Infantry units, 20 cavalrymen for Cavalry units or 6 Elephants.
Units have their own set of traits to represent permanent attributes of the unit like Melee Combat, Range Attack, Defensive capacity, Morale and Life, and Movement capacity. This set of traits gets bonuses and penalties depending on the ongoing situation and combat engagements.
Units also have their unique set of skills to represent specific abilities they can perform: from defensive formations to extremely effective techniques to attack enemies. Some of these skills need to be activated, meaning only one of them can be used in an engagement, while others are inherent to the units.
Leadership is represented in the game by the figure of the General. A General's token represent his HQ and its own escort. In addition to the leadership concept, a General grants bonuses to nearby units, boosting the morale of the troops and providing additional benefits when they are engaged with the enemy in those bloody encounters. Both, Hannibal and Scipio, two well-known Generals are included in the game with their unique set of bonuses! Also, Heroes, Veterans and Elite units take part in Onus!

With the current economic trials facing the United States and the world, the idea of privatizing retirement has been (once again) dismissed as too risky for American retirees.
With millions of Americans concerned about the economy many Republicans and Democrats claim the ailing stock market shows that privately investing is "too dangerous" for we common Americans.
The Social Security system is based on a "business" model that is banned by federal law - but it must be safe and OK if the government does it. The structure of it is the same as Bernard Madhoff's little scheme which has cost his investors (very roughly) 50 Billion dollars. The money of new investors is used to pay dividends, etc. to older investors. The problem with such a plan is that the company has no actual value and is entirely dependent on the constant flow of new dollars.
Even with it's cyclical declines the stock market pays long-term investors far better than the Social Security Program. The average annual return on money paid into the Social Security system is 1.5 percent, yet throughout its history, the stock market has paid an average of 7.5 percent annually to long-term investors.
Even including the 1929 stock market crash, the Depression of the '30s, the bear market of the '70s, the recessions of the '80s, the corporate scandals of 2002, and the current recession, the stock market is still a far better investment than Social Security.
Americans could also invest their retirement money with very little risk, under most privatization proposals, investors could avoid the stock market altogether and direct their money into bonds, the money market and other low-risk investments (Treasury bonds have historically returned 5.3 percent a year).
Politicians should allow Americans to opt out of Social Security.

Q: Should I spawn one thread per disk writing operation? I am making a crawler to download some images extensively and I want to speed up by using thread (I'm new to multithreading). I am not sure about the inner mechanism behind disk writing operation. Can I write different files to disk simultaneously using thread? (does the writing get scheduled automatically?) Or should I make a lock for disk access for each thread to take turns and write?

A: There's no point. Disk write operations aren't blocking anyway, so there's no point in creating many threads just to perform them.

The chips are designed for use in low-power devices, including tablets.
They incorporate what the US company calls "3D transistors", which it introduced to its PC chips in 2012, designed to boost computational power while using less energy.
One analyst said Bay Trail could pose a serious challenge to ARM.
Unlike Intel, the British company does not make chips of its own but rather makes money by licensing its designs to other companies, including Qualcomm, Apple and Nvidia, which then adapt them for their own uses.
ARM's designs currently dominate central processing units (CPUs) used in smartphones and tablets, while Intel's x86-based architecture is far more common in desktop and laptop computers.
This has been a consequence of ARM having the reputation of being the more energy efficient of the two.
"I actually do think they have what it takes, but it's not going to be an overnight transition for Intel," said Chris Green, principal technology analyst at the Davies Murphy Group consultancy.
"It has huge ground to make up against ARM who really still have a stranglehold on the mobile market.
"But this is a great chip on paper for Intel to mount a challenge. Certainly, the fact that it has got backing from the likes of Samsung - who we know is very enthusiastic for the prospects of this chip - I think speaks volumes for its chances in the months to come."
Samsung surprised the tech industry in June when it announced that the 10in (25.4cm)-screened version of its Galaxy Tab 3 tablet featured an Intel chip - Bay Trail's Atom-series predecessor, Clover Trail+.
The South Korean firm had previously relied on ARM-based chips made by itself or others to power its Galaxy smart devices.
Intel says the new quad-core chips double the computing performance and treble the graphic performance of Clover Trail+.
It also introduces the company's Burst Technology 2.0, which can vary which parts of the chip receive the most power to maximise performance without breaching temperature limits.
"You might want to take 15 to 20 photos in a touch application and apply some filters to them to get them ready to post to a blog," explained Intel manager Chris Walker.
"That's a situation where you'd be doing less with the display, might not be using the camera at all but you'd need to apply the effects very quickly. The CPU can dynamically adjust for that.
"Now in a different application, maybe a 3D-rich game which is more compute and graphics intensive, what can happen is dynamically the graphics [processing parts] can go up and take power from other areas. It's just responsive to the user."
Mr Walker also highlighted the fact that Bay Trail can support both Android and the full Windows 8 operating systems, allowing manufacturers to offer hybrid tablets that allow their owners to swap between the two environments.
ARM-based processors can support Android and Windows RT, however the latter does not support as many applications as Windows 8. Missing ones include the full version of Photoshop and many bespoke programs written for companies.
According to a recent study by analytics company Net Applications, Windows RT - which was launched in October - still accounts for less than 0.5% of the global operating system market.
Asus recently announced it was stopping making Windows RT tablets because of weak sales and the lack of backwards compatibility.
"I would argue ARM should be very worried," said Mr Green.
"Intel has started to wake up and realise they were about to lose this race which is why they have really put their foot down and come back with some interesting products."
However, the British firm is not resting on its laurels.
On Tuesday it released a video showing how Samsung's forthcoming ARM-based Exynos 5 Octa chip - which has eight CPU cores - makes use of its Big-Little design while being used to play video game Angry Birds.
Big-Little refers to the fact that four of the CPU cores are more powerful but also more power-hungry, while the other four offer less computing power but are less demanding on batteries.
According to what the user is doing, different ones can be switched on and off to ensure the owner gets the best mix.

(ANT) Under fire for taking money to "promote" the No Child's Behind Left Alone Act, conservative commentator Armstrong Williams has acted to "clarify the real issue," as he sees it: how much he actually costs.
"I apologize for any misunderstanding that may have been caused," he told reporters yesterday at a press conference called to explain the issue.
"The question has never been 'is Armstrong Williams for sale?' Everyone's for sale in this business. The real question is how much Armstrong Williams costs, and to whom I will sell my services."
In order to help "facilitate a better understanding of the process," Mr. Williams revealed a chart that laid out the cost of his services. Prices ranged from $20, for "a moment of my time," to $50,000, for his "unswerving and total commitment to your cause for 365 days."
Other services listed were "A sympathetic ear," for $50, "name-dropping for a month," for $200, and "pointed mention on my show," for $1000.
"Buying Armstrong Williams doesn't just buy you some hired mouth you can put in front of a camera once or twice, and then have to shoo off like a crackhead trying to get a welfare check," Mr. Williams elaborated: "My services go all the way, every day."
"You get me in my columns, you get me on my TV show. You even get me on someone else's TV show. In fact, any time I've got a chance to speak to young minds, or old ones, I will push your needs out into the marketplace of ideas."
"And, as with most things, if you are not satisfied with the level of service you have received from Armstrong Williams, your money will be refunded in full. Guaranteed!"
However, Mr. Williams made it clear that he wasn't for sale to all bidders.
"I will not be sold to just anyone. If you don't share my worldview, I won't help you sell yours. And I, as an upstanding and moral American, stand for an upstanding, more moral America."
That done, Mr. Williams revealed that he was "pleased to be going all the way" on behalf of disgraced former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, and spent fifteen minutes promoting Gingrich's new book, Everyone Bangs Their Interns, Dammit, to the assembled reporting pool.

When scientists first used fissile back in the 1600s, the notion of splitting the nucleus of an atom would have seemed far-fetched indeed. In those days, people thought that atoms were the smallest particles of matter that existed and therefore could not be split. Fissile (which can be traced back to Latin findere, meaning "to split") was used in reference to things like rocks. When we hear about "fissile materials" today, the reference is usually to nuclear fission: the splitting of an atomic nucleus that releases a huge amount of energy. But there is still a place in our language for the original sense of fissile (and for the noun fissility, meaning "the quality of being fissile"). A geologist, for example, might refer to slate as being fissile.
These example sentences are selected automatically from various online news sources to reflect current usage of the word 'fissile.' Views expressed in the examples do not represent the opinion of Merriam-Webster or its editors. Send us feedback.

2013 South Asian Film Festival
Mumbai by way of Maitland
South Asian Film Festival returns to Enzian
From The Orlando Weekly, September 24, 2013
Experiencing movie-fest withdrawal and can't wait for the Orlando Film Festival to start on October 16? The Enzian Theater may just have your remedy in the form of the 19th annual South Asian Film Festival, which showcases the cultures of India and Pakistan through films both from and about those countries.
Held this Saturday and Sunday, the event will include four features and one short. The comedy Jadoo (preceded by Unravel), the political thriller The Reluctant Fundamentalist and the epic Midnight's Children are the narrative features, with Salma being the lone documentary.
A pass to the entire festival, which is co-presented by the Asian Cultural Association, costs $35, while a single ticket is $10. See http://www.enzian.org/festivals/south_asian for details.
Salma FL, 2013, 3 ¾ stars
"Most girls start periods at 13. That's when the outside world becomes strictly forbidden," Salma says. "After puberty, you lose the outside world. One by one, my school friends got locked up. That's how it is for Muslim girls."
And that's how it was – and still is – for girls in this conservative Indian village, including Salma, who was imprisoned by her parents for nine years, from puberty to marriage. She was then imprisoned mentally by her husband and his family until she miraculously found a way to break free and become one of her country's greatest poets.
"Allah has written this fate on our hands," Salma's mother told her. The daughter's reaction: "The anger was boiling inside me. That's when I started writing poetry."
If this heartbreaking and insightful Tamil-language documentary by Kim Longinotto doesn't make you angry too, you're not paying attention. Yet despite its powerfully personal story, Salma's message is that the villains of misogynistic oppression are not the people, but the traditions themselves, those centuries-old rules that subjugate in the name of religion. And not just Islam, but any religion that preaches inequality, ignorance and fairy tales over fairness.
Midnight's Children, 2012, 2 stars
An epic spanning 60 years, Midnight's Children is the unique tale of babies born at 12 a.m. on Aug. 14, 1947, the day of India's independence. Blending drama, romance and even fantasy in the tradition of Indian cinema, Deepa Mehta's movie shows that though two of those children were switched at birth, their lives and destinies are forever intertwined, as are the destinies of all Indians and Pakistanis.
"A child and a country were born at midnight," says one of the boys. "Great things were expected of us both. The truth has been less glorious than the dream, but we have survived and made our way. And our lives have been, in spite of everything, acts of love."
Written by Salman Rushdie, who based it on his novel, the film is also an act of love carrying the burden of great expectations. But as with many overly ambitious epics, it struggles to fulfill those expectations and can't quite juggle its complicated storylines, its heavy-handed narration and its awkward transitions between drama and fantasy.
The Reluctant Fundamentalist, 2013, 3 ¼ stars (not reviewed)

Q: Php no attributes needed? normally using java. I ve seen a snippet like this today
$oStrategie = new Strategie();

foreach($aData as $key=>$value) {
        $oStrategie[$key] = $value;
}

$oStrategie->doSomething()

Strategie is a selfmade php class with nothing special. simple constructor doing nothing important and so on.
in the class Strategie the method doSomething() accesses the ArrayValues of $aData
$this['array_index_1']

Why can i access the array there even if the Strategie class doesent have any attributes defined and no setter overwritten or something like that? Can anybody explain me whats happening there? Is there no need to have attributes in the class in php???

A: Your class implements the ArrayAccess interface. This means it implements the following methods:
ArrayAccess {
    abstract public boolean offsetExists ( mixed $offset )
    abstract public mixed offsetGet ( mixed $offset )
    abstract public void offsetSet ( mixed $offset , mixed $value )
    abstract public void offsetUnset ( mixed $offset )
}

This allows you to use array access $var[$offset] on instances of this class. Here's a standard implement of a class like this, using a $container array to hold properties:
class Strategie implements ArrayAccess {

    private $container = array();

    public function __construct() {
        $this->container = array(
            "something"   => 1,
        );
    }
    public function offsetSet($offset, $value) {
        if (is_null($offset)) {
            $this->container[] = $value;
        } else {
            $this->container[$offset] = $value;
        }
    }

    public function offsetExists($offset) {
        return isset($this->container[$offset]);
    }

    public function offsetUnset($offset) {
        unset($this->container[$offset]);
    }

    public function offsetGet($offset) {
        return isset($this->container[$offset]) ? $this->container[$offset] : null;
    }
}

Without looking at the actual implementation of Strategie or the class it's derived from, it's hard to tell what it's actually doing.
But using this, you can control the behavior of the class, for example, when accessing an offset that doesn't exist. Suppose we replace offsetGet($offset) with:
public function offsetGet($offset) {
    if (isset($this->container[$offset])) {
        return $this->container[$offset];
    } else {
        Logger.log('Tried to access: ' + $offset);
        return $this->default;
    }
}

Now whenever we try to access an offset that doesn't exist, it will return a default (eg: $this->default) and log an error, for example.
Note that you can accomplish similar behavior using the magic methods __set(), __get(), __isset() and __unset(). The difference between the magic methods I just listed and ArrayAccess is that you'd access a property via $obj->property rather than $obj[offset]


Recent data shows that the "great thaw" continues and the economy is coming back. Unemployment is less than 7 percent, the GDP expanded at the rate of 3.2 percent, increased IT spending is returning to pre-2008 growth rates, a plethora of new technologies, and aging hardware have led to a new dawn of opportunity. Many of America's mid-market IT managers are now anxiously catching up to their larger competitors.
In fact, the continued economic resurgence has led to 79 percent of IT professionals suggesting that their 2014 IT budgets would either remain the same or increase over 2013, a year that enabled many mid-market IT departments to begin rebuilding.
New technologies are powerful drivers of middle market empowerment. Mid-market leaders are no longer satisfied with solutions that are scaled down versions of larger systems. Instead, they want solutions designed to meet their specific business needs, as well as the ability of their IT people to manage them.
Not being ready to invest in new employees, servers, appliances, and networks for many years has left many seeking outside solutions to help them catch up. That's why 88 percent of mid-market businesses say they are planning to consult an external partner for assistance in developing and implementing their IT strategies, according to a Frost & Sullivan report.
With Gartner estimating that companies spend as much as $6,600 per year per employee in IT costs, many mid-market managers are increasing relying on enhanced support and outsourced solutions that enable adoption and support for new technologies without bearing the costs associated with technology, heavy staff training or staff resource redeployment.
What capabilities & technologies are you missing from your current business communications tool box?
Is your service vendor just providing scaled versions of larger solutions? One-size-fits-all solutions that are narrowed down will not necessarily meet future needs of a mid-market company. For too long, mid-market solutions were just limited solutions intended for larger enterprises. Does the partner offer customizable solutions that are tailored to your company's needs?
Does the company know your needs and your industry? Mid-market companies are often more industry specific than their enterprise counterparts.
Can the service partner integrate, support, and manage disparate technologies in various locations? Having a partner that can quickly evaluate and manage all communications and collaboration resources will ensure continuity of service and ultimately, competitiveness.
How deep is your service partner's bench? Can they support your company's headquarters on-site or halfway across the world? Mid-market does not equal single site, many mid-market companies have multiple locations that can span the globe.
Are the right resources available both right now and as I scale up and business continues to expand? All business want to grow; can your service partner support you at all stages of growth?
If something does go wrong, how easy is it to access the right solution? The need for support can be very variable, but when a mid-market businesses needs support, they don't want to learn a new interface to access it. Does the service partner offer a full range of ways to access support 24×7 and enable you to use the collaboration venue that is most efficient to your IT team?
When ready, can the vendor help my company take advantage of cloud offerings? Not all service partners are created equally, choosing one with cloud experience can help ease the transition to cloud for the parts of your IT infrastructure that make sense.
The expanding economy and advancing technology have created unimaginable opportunities, but with that comes considerable risk. Customized support from a valued partner can help simplify the path to deployment, empower employees and enhance your competitive edge. How mid-market companies manage investing in IT now will have profound effects in 2015 and beyond. Service partners can help smooth that revolution.
Are you planning to rely more heavily on service partners to accelerate your adoption of new IT solutions?


Synopsis provided by Westlaw: The Office of Children's Services (OCS) filed a petition to adjudicate Indian child as a child in need of aid. The Superior Court, Fourth Judicial District, Bethel, Charles W. Ray, Jr., J., adjudicated child as a child in need of aid and ordered her to be returned to her parents' home. The OCS appealed.
Holding provided by Westlaw: The Supreme Court, Maassen, J., held that the Indian Child Welfare Act's (ICWA) requirement that any decision to place an Indian child with someone other than the child's parent or Indian custodian must be "supported by clear and convincing evidence, including testimony of qualified expert witnesses, that the continued custody of the child by the parent or Indian custodian is likely to result in serious emotional or physical damage to the child" did not require the expert to have expertise in Alaskan Native culture, and thus social workers could qualify as experts.

In the wake of a major battle of Iran-Iraq war, a cameraman finds himself stranded in the wilderness alongside the only other survivors, an Iraqi and an Iranian soldier. With a single gun between them, the soldiers alternatively take each other hostage, marching aimlessly upon the scorched earth to an unknown destination. Realizing that neither has anything left to go back to, they form an unlikely friendship, to which the cameraman is the sole witness.

Where do you do your best work? Nearly everyone in our office has the same answer. Starbucks.
We Mac users head there often to get a break from the office workload, to meet up with co-workers or friends, and, more often than not, to get a little 'me time' so we can recharge the creative batteries amid the hustle and bustle of America's watering hole.
What if you can't take a break, or the weather is bad? Bring the Starbucks experience to your Mac, sans coffee, with the Coffitivity app. Click the icon in the Mac's Menubar and select your coffee shop environment.
Coffitivity brings the audio ambience from the coffee shop to your Mac's speakers. That's right. Coffitivity is coffee shop sounds enhanced for the office that play right on your Mac (or iPhone or iPad, so the coffee shop audio environment can be completely mobile).
The Coffitivity website even takes submissions from users. Record audio from your favorite coffee shop and submit it to Coffitivity. Of course, you could run down to Starbucks, flip open your Mac or use your iPhone or iPad to record the ambient sounds and use that. But Coffitivity is inexpensive and works perfectly out of the box (so to speak).

A: Don't use a shell script.  Really.
You might be able to hack something up, with sed or awk or something like that, but it'll be very specific to this case, be very brittle (the slightest change to the input would probably make it break), be very hard to develop further, and wouldn't teach you anything (in the sense that you won't be able to re-use the knowledge you've gained).
Use XSLT:

*

*libxml is a C library which includes a command-line program (xsltproc) which implements XSLT 1.0, and which can therefore process XML files into anything you like.  Disadvantage: it only implements XSLT 1.0; XSLT 2.0 and 3.0 are larger languages, but have some very helpful features.

*Saxon is a Java library for XML parsing; the library comes in several variants.  This implements multiple versions of XSLT.  Disadvantage: it suffers from the non-negligible startup time that all Java programs have, so it's a little less comfortable to use interactively (but this is a minor inconvenience in almost all circumstances).

There are other XSLT implementations, but these two are probably the best-known.

Most currently-fashionable languages have XML parsing libraries.  The alternative to using XSLT is to parse the XML in a program, do ... stuff with it, and then use the same library to serialise it in some way.  But 'use XSLT' is the nearest thing to 'do it on the command line'.

Writer Enitan Bereola II focuses on creative ownership and finding balance

Enitan Bereola II wrote three award-winning and best-selling books that Barack Obama, Oprah Winfrey and the Zuckerbergs own — Bereolaesque, Gentlewoman and The Gray. Bereola is a renaissance man in true form, gallivanting the globe, cataloging pop culture and curating sold out shows that pair wine and restoration with the critical conversation between literary masters, Forbes-listed painters, and Grammy Award-winning artists. Bereola's knack for storytelling landed him a motion picture development deal. Bereola is the millennial gentleman.
Rolling out had the opportunity to chat with Bereola about his family and his art.
What has surprised you the most about entrepreneurship?
The effect it has on your mental health and how equally urgent it is to rest, pray, love, live and breathe as it is to network, outwork, outdo, outsmart and outlast the competition. The cost of a billion dollars isn't worth the cost of a billion dollars. That's my observation — I'm no billionaire. Anyone can reach success, but who can maintain it? Entrepreneurship is a marathon — I've watched stars burn out then fade from moving too fast. I mind my business, listen to my wife and drink water. That's my secret.
Oh, I'm surprised at how often we allow people outside of our culture to become the proprietors of our culture. We let outsiders wave product, promotion and perceived power in our face while they drain us of our natural resources and we post the IG photo of crumbs left on the plate smiling as if we're truly eating. Inclusion isn't enough. Ownership only.
Who has influenced your career?
Steve Canal. We've been on tour for the last seven months. He lets his actions speak. I hear more about his incredible deeds from others than I do from him. I like that. Been talking less and doing more lately. I like that.
What's next for your business?
Communication comes in many forms. I'm making a lot of noise this year. Working with Hill Harper and Kenneth Whalum on recording "The Gray" audiobook. The Exhibit Gray Tour is traveling through London. We've green-lit some dope celebrity ghostwriting projects. A documentary is in the works along with a fresh film I'm producing — wish I could say more, but you'll have to have me back for a cover-story and we'll do an exclusive! I'm in the middle of negotiating transactions rights for the third book. We relaunch the website. I'm working with some dope brands. Speaking at some cool conferences – dates available on bereolaesque.com.
You have a beautiful family. How do you manage work-life balance?
Thank you. For me, balance is handling 21 different projects, coordinating flights with a babysitter and discovering cute day-dates with my wife. If I feel like I'm doing too much, I release the pressure by slowing down. I've adopted the idea of guilt-free neglect where I close my laptop and play with my family even if there's work to do.
You're gonna die with things to do on your to-do list. Don't forget to live.
You develop character and ideas by ….
It was once wine.
It used to be music and art.
Today, it's discernment.
I am granted access to the words you do not say. I invade your thoughts and emotions not to cause disorder, but to cure disease. I put myself in your shoes. It lets me see you. It creates empathy and allows understanding. My job as a writer is to see you and tell you what I see. My method is by making you uncomfortable because change hardly comes from comfort.
What inspired you to write?
A mentor provoked me. Ultimately the Holy Spirit spoke to me. No hocus-pocus, all facts. The fact of the matter is I never aspired to be a writer. I wanted to be a CIO somewhere sitting in Silicon Valley. Life inspires me to write. I often see what people miss. I float between past, present, and future. I see things before they happen. I see things as they happen — as they are. If you listen, stories are everywhere waiting to be told. Discernment is a tool that gives me access to unsaid words.
Do you have a specific writing style?
There's a rhythm to it. It has a heartbeat. There's legacy in the literature. I'm a writing stylist that sources, sows and sells the sentences that set spirits on fire. I tell secrets to future generations with coded language. My work is designed to keep going after I stop.
Describe the process of getting published.
The first step is the hardest — don't write unless you have something to say, something honest and valuable that solves a particular problem. Run the idea past a trusted network. Test the content against a large sample size like social media. Have a direct line to your consumer. Engage. Have a presence, be identifiable in the marketplace. You can't Google experience. If you'd like to know more, text me: (323) 870.1750.
What were the literary, psychological or logistical challenges in bringing your work to life?
Everything that can get in the way will get in the way. It's like any other thing worth having. Writing challenges you entirely. That's the beauty of it. The growth that occurs as a result of the literary process is therapy. A writer commits his or herself to their work. We scarify our being and pour our soul onto pages with the hope that the drips become puddles leading to oceans of inspiration. In order to empower people — you must give your power away. The more power you give, the more powerful you become. When a writer is moved, a reader is moved. Don't be moved by fear, but move in spite of fear. I did. I was shaking at my first Ball State University booking. I was afraid when the computer my first book was on crashed and I had to start over. I was nervous when my first book didn't sell as much as I thought it would. I almost lost it when I experienced an error making Gentlewoman available for sale on its release day. Fail to plan — plan to fail.
What is the mission you set out to accomplish with your voice in this book?

I remember way back in 1972, February 1972 actually, the US government held a Lottery for the drafting of men to fight in Vietnam. My number that year was 312. My older brother, born 4 years earlier, also received the number 312 during his Lottery. November 8th, 1953 and April 8th, 1948, we both drew the same lottery number of 312.
When I think back on those times in our history it is hard to fathom the reality of a Draft. Sadly, not everyone was as lucky as my brother and myself. We were never called to serve, though many of our friends were. In the months leading up to February 2nd, 1972, I became a chain smoker. That lasted until April 1992. If a young 19-year-old could become a chain smoker just by worrying about a lottery drawing, imagine the stress and anxiety of those that were drafted.
Today we live in a very different world. The draft was eliminated decades ago, but millions of young men and women heard the call in the years since and joined the service to protect the United States. How can you not be proud of every single individual who would put aside their own safety, security, and selfishness to become something larger than themselves, to become a member of the United States Military?
The fact is, the US military is always off fighting in some part of the world, or at least it seems like it. Every day men and women are putting their lives on the line, sometimes for the protection of every US citizen, and sometimes to fight injustice, or evil, for people that can't fight back. So many never return. We owe our brave soldiers everything, and if I had my way, our soldiers would never have to worry about food, shelter, or health, ever again. But we know that won't happen; our brave men and women face many challenges while serving in the military, and afterwards, only to be greeted by the harsh reality of living in modern times.
My job as the publisher of Spinfuel eMagazine, a global online magazine for people that use electronic cigarettes, brings me into contact with men and women who have already fought our wars and who are currently fighting our wars, and they always receive the utmost respect and admiration for the job they do.
I meet many of them because of the number of soldiers and ex-military personnel that have switched from smoking tobacco cigarettes to vaping electronic cigarettes grows every day. I meet them at Vaping Expos, conventions, and even around town. Spinfuel, and myself personally, try to help as much as we can, sometimes by giving away free products, and sometimes by just informing them about which products are good and which one they should avoid. Every time I can give a veteran or an active soldier a starter kit or a few bottles of e liquid, it makes me feel better about not having had the bravery they have in abundance.
There have been hundreds of surveys and studies that continue to show that the number of active smokers is considerably higher among our veterans and current soldiers, when compared to the civilian population. From 2007 to 2010 veterans aged 25-64, 29% were actively smoking cigarettes. The civilian population in the same age group was 24%. Worse still, in 2011 the percentage of veterans still smoking was 24% and the civilian population had dropped to just 19%. These numbers don't even consider the number of active soldiers that currently smoke tobacco products.
Outside the military, smokers were finding their way to the less harmful electronic cigarette, but inside the military people weren't following suit. Today, while we don't yet have accurate numbers, the disparity between smokers and vapers, in the military and in the civilian population, is most certainly greater than it was back in 2011. Vaping has become a household word, and millions of people in the US alone have learned just how safe vaping can be.
I've met and become friends with many people that are former military who have come home from the fighting with PTSD. Fighting a war takes a toll on every soldier, and it also costs our government a tremendous amount of money ever year to treat our good men and women who heard to the call to serve. Billions of dollars are spent every year on treating medical issues for veterans, but its not enough. Did you know that the cost for caring for our soldiers that smoke tobacco products cost hundreds of millions of dollars every year?
Whether its PTSD or a bad habit picked up because of stress or boredom, smoking is a big problem for the individual soldier/veteran, and for the government that tries to care for them. Thankfully, a much safer alternative to smoking is making headway into the world of veterans and active soldiers.
Many tens of thousands of our brave soldiers, both current and former, have switched to e-cigarettes, an infinitely less harmful way to smoke (we call it vaping), to stave off the ravages of smoking. We know this because thousands of our military personnel have come to depend on Spinfuel to bring them honest reviews and news for vaping products, so that they can make sure that every hard earned dollar is spent wisely. We at Spinfuel eMagazine take this responsibility very seriously.
Look, there are many valid reasons why the use of tobacco and marijuana smoking is much more common in military than it is elsewhere. The stress our soldiers feel, day in and day out, is enormous. The responsibility of protecting this great country alone is enough to drive brave men and women to seek out ways to relieve this stress. But in the end, soldiers that use tobacco products and/or marijuana wind up suffering for it.
There are hundreds of reasons why tobacco kills, and I don't want to turn this into a book-length article outlining them all. We all know tobacco causes cancer, heart disease, strokes, and much more. I wonder how many people understand the harm that comes from simple combustion?
The dangers of tobacco products and marijuana also comes from the fact that, before vaporizers, the only way to consume them was through burning them and inhaling the smoke emitted from the leaves. Using a vaporizer, or e-cigarette, vapor is created by heating a liquid, and that alone makes a big difference.
Even though smokers today understand all too well the perils of smoking, quitting is one of the hardest issues they will ever face. According to American Lung Association, 77% of smokers fail when they try to quit. Do you doubt that this percentage is certainly higher among our veterans and our active soldiers? According to CDC, smoking has caused ten times more deaths than all the US wars… combined.
There are several organizations that are trying to make a difference in the lives of our veterans and current soldiers, many of them directed at one common problem, medical issues from smoking. The solution to this supposedly insurmountable problem is working with veterans and active soldiers who remain addicted to smoking is to lead them through that addiction to an infinitely safer alternative… vaping.
The fact is, using electronic cigarettes is unquestionably safer than using tobacco products. Study after study reveal real science behind the claim that using e-cigarettes are much safer than smoking.
When a person uses Electronic cigarettes they exhale vapor, not smoke. Vapor that has NO toxic effect on the cells found in human lungs.
Current research funded by British American Tobacco suggest inhaling nicotine vapor could be as safe as breathing air. Experiments were conducted in this particular study was conducted with the MatTek Corporation, a company that makes models of human cells used in 'in vitro' laboratory experiments.
Scientists used a "smoking robot" to expose lung cell replicas to tobacco smoke, the vapor from two different brands of e-cigs and simple unadulterated air. When exposed to tobacco smoke for six hours, the cells died. But after subjecting the cells to an "aggressive and continuous" dose of vapor, researchers claimed the damage to the airway tissue was "similar to that of air".
By employing a combination of the smoking robot and a lab-based test using respiratory tissue, it was possible to demonstrate the e-cigarette aerosols used in the study had no [toxic] effect on human airway tissue, according to the BAT spokesperson Dr. Marina Murphy.
Since that time hundreds of studies have shown similar findings, and as hard as anti-vaping organizations fight, the truth wills out. Vaping with electronic cigarettes are indeed, infinitely safer than smoking.
Our veterans have laid their lives on the line for every citizen in our country, and we believe they deserve to live long, happy and healthy lives in return. The best way to do that with vets and active soldiers that smoke cigarettes is to lead them to electronic cigarettes and the pleasure, and safety, of vaping.
Companies that we work with, including MigVapor, believe like us, that we owe our veterans more than we can ever repay, and it is our duty to help them in any way we can. MigVapor offers every vet and active soldier a 10% discount on ALL their products (just enter the code "veteran"). Spinfuel eMagazine runs giveaways constantly, and we will soon begin to offer exclusive giveaways to veterans and active soldiers so that they have a chance to experience the best alternative to smoking.


We had the pleasure of having Brendan Eich at the event to give the final keynote.
The presentation is online now, but to be honest, it lacks Brendan's wit. Half of the jokes come in under his breath, and his honesty is a breath of fresh air.
We want something revolutionary rather than something improved?
Am I going to be sticky to 1.6 before 2.0 is widely adopted?
Maybe we don't want to wait for years, what about a date 555 days later as the deadline, Saturday, May 3, 2008?
I am not able to view the presenation. I use FF but even tried IE, the presentation doesn't show up properly, it is just me?
So the next question is when do we get a server-side JS2 system that can communicate objects/calls directly to the client and back and load, say, php extensions server-side (to be used via JS2 rather than PHP… why write in two different interpreted languages?*)?
Imagine writing core classes once and simply having different DAOs being used client side versus server side, and a client-side DAO making an ajax call to an instance of the object on the server which could then use its cache/db/etc DAOs (that would never get sent to the client) to set up the objects. That would get exciting.
* I know, I know, not everybody uses PHP. I just use it as an example because it's also interpreted and because it has a large set of available extensions written in C, and if they're already being used by one non-native interpreted system, they might as well be used by another, no?
The presentation was very good. At least from a hungry technical consumer pov.
Is a presentation video going to be put online? Is Eich following up with a detailed overview of what shows in the slides? Is there a progress report coming out of the ECMAScript working group, as well as a listing of companies involved? I saw the deadline, but that's not a progress report. Most importantly: is there a commitment from the other browser makers to this plan?
So the big question is "what IE release might include JS2/ES4?" But we have to finish the spec before you can hope to get an answer out of MSFT. That's only fair: any company tracking the spec would not want to commit to a ship date before the standard is finalized.
I asked about using if using generators could restore synchronous control flow when using XHR. You explained how under some circumstances they could help, but ultimately they can't restore synchronous control flow. Unfortunately I think the only way we could restore synchronous control flow is by using full continuations which you explained are to costly for the browser. But, could the stack inspection library proposal in the wiki give us the ability to implement full continuations? Would local variables, parameters, and such be accesible as annotations?
Charlie, it's possible to implement proper tail calls in a fairly costly way, using exceptions — see http://w3future.com/weblog/2006/02/. This does not give you the simplified "synchronous style" programming you seek. But at least with JS2/ES4, you'll get mandatory proper tail calls in addition to generators (yield expressions/statements). So you can avoid writing spaghetti code in most cases.
Here is where generators break down: you can yield only one generator activation "back" to the caller or "resumer" (the code that calls .next(), .send(v), or perhaps .throw(e)). If you want to restore synchronous control flow across a flow graph involving more than one function, with only the root function in the graph being the generator (where the yields are), then (bad, back to spaghetti) you will need to hand-craft a state machine to track where you left off in a subroutine, and resume there — or (better, no spaghetti but not purely synchronous either), use nested generators.
Some people might give up and use hand-rolled continuations, relying on proper tail calls to avoid consuming indefinite stack space. But doing that means explicitly turning your loops inside out and twisting them into if statements with continuations.
Nested generators are not so bad. They should be familiar to Python folks. We hope to build on that mindshare. But I know of many cases where the flow graph that one wishes to make synchronous fits entirely in a single function, and for such cases, yield alone suffices.
why can i not see this presentation :( i really wanted to see. i read all about it on your website.
