The Hard Thing About Hard Things: Building a Business When There Are No Easy Answers
Growing up in Los Angeles In Hollywood, everybody wants to be rich, famous, and beautiful.
Nobody wants to be old, unknown, and poor. For Hollywood kids, life can be difficult because they grow up in such an unreal atmosphere. Their parents are ambitious, and the children are part of the parents ambitions. Parents pay for extravagant parties, expensive cars, and designer clothes. When every dream can come true, kids learn the value of nothing because they have everything. A 13-year-old boy, Trent Maguire, has a driver, credit cards, and unlimited cash to do what he wants when he wants. One day, Ill earn more money than my Dad, he boasts. Parents buy care and attention for their children because they have no time to give it themselves. Amandas mother employs a personal trainer, a nutritionist, a bodyguard/chauffeur, a singing coach, and a counselor to look after all her 15-year-old daughters needs. Often there is not parent at home most days, so children decide whether to make their own meals or go out to restaurants, when to watch television or do homework. They organize their own social lives. They play no childhood games. They become adults before they are ready. Hollywood has always been the city of dreams. The kids in L.A live unreal lives where money, beauty, and pleasure are the only gods. Will children around the world soon start to think the same? Or do they already?

DIRECT SPEECH
We can see words.
in stories, novels, newspapers, etc. But sometimes we use other
In a wedding dress shop.
1. 2. 3. 4.
"What do you think?" said Mary. "Oh, it looks lovely," her friends said. "I think its old fashioned," said Beth. Oh, you be quiet! said Mary.
"What do you think?" asked Mary. "Oh, it looks lovely," her friends answered. "I think its old fashioned," whispered Beth. Oh, you be quiet! shouted Mary.
INDIRECT SPEECH
We also use
in indirect speech:
Karen: Im going out. me) Bob: I cant come. Mari: I dont know.
Karen said [that] she was going out. (Not: Karen said Bob said [that] he couldnt come. She said [that] she didnt know.
TELL has the same meaning as say, but different form: tell + me, you, him, her,
For example, look at the same conversation, with tell.
Karen: Im going out. Bob: I cant come. Mari: I dont know.
Karen told me/us/etc. [that] she was going out. Bob told me/us/etc. [that] he couldnt come. She told me/us/etc. [that] she didnt know.
We can also use requests**.
TELL /ASK + me, you, him, her, etc. + infinitive for orders /
The policeman told her to stay in the car. / The policeman asked her to stay in the car. I told them to come at 6. / I asked them to come at 6.
** Told can sound MUCH stronger than ask. For example: Im telling you, not asking you. And we can use other words, too, with the same pattern as ask/tell:
It was dark and dangerous. Of course we warned Julie not to go.
Her mother advised her to drink warm milk.

I no longer build startups using a linear approach – that's the process inherently integrated into canned startup business plan software, and taught by MBA programs for nascent entrepreneurs.
My startup process is highly iterative. Product concept. Competitive / market research. Revisit product concept for differentiation. Patent research. Revisit product technology (and product roadmap) for competitive positioning. Reassess the market (tech trends, socioeconomic trends, economic trends, etc.). Look for and align with convergent trends.
I never start a plan with market research. Market research retrospective, and typically written or compiled by journalistic observers and analysts who have never operated a lemonade stand. In short, it's nearly useless as a future vision tool. Simply put, people can't appreciate or evaluate something if they have no knowledge of it.
On the other hand, patent research is prospective and teaches more about where I need to place the company and products for competitive advantage and exit value.
Unicorn (the products, market, model, etc.) is driven by the end-game, the exit. Unicorn (the company) is the product that I'm building and its ultimate customer is a strategic acquirer. When and how this happens is fundamental to our business plan.
After setting aside the initial product/market concept for Unicorn, I dug for the answers to a few key questions: who are the potential acquirers in the industry, what makes them tick, is the industry M&A active, and what's their 3-5 year trajectory. The answers shaped Unicorn's core structure.
Patent research, on the other hand, is prospective gold mine. It's more reliable, more objective, and reflects serious investment by the leaders who will shape the industry's future – in some industries, it reflects $5 million to $10 million in R&D investment per granted patent.
This is going to get a little geeky.
Although patent analytics is an obscure science, it's an industry that I helped create (and have patents in). It's an expertise that I share with only a handful of peers around the world.
Patent trajectories DO produce useful predictive research data literally showing where the big companies are pushing their industries. The first patent landscape map the targeted pet food industry, and provided useful future insight.
My patent landscape analysis literally showed me which companies were investment how much money to be where their product roadmap would take them 3 years hence. Crystal clarity!
But, then I overlaid the landscapes of the adjacent pet technology and pet care market players, and a very interesting picture emerged. It became instantly clear that the patent trajectories core technologies and processes in these typically siloed pet food, pet tech, and pet care segments were converging. It appeared like the proverbial treasure map "X".
That was the go-now, go fast signal. Establishing a solid priority date on Unicorn technologies in advance of the convergence drove many product and marketing decisions – mores than any $4,000 market research report.
My job then centered on creating the technologies, products and services that extended beyond "state of the art", as defined by the industry giants' patents and applications. Patent mapping shaped Unicorn's next first and second generation products and services.
During the three years following my patent analysis, effort was focused on designing, defining, refining, and filing dozens of patent applications on devices, technologies, processes, systems and methods that would establish Unicorn as the IP front-runner in a new category that transects these three pet industry segments.
With the company's model and products aligned with the major pet market trajectories, Unicorn is positioned for high confidence competitive market entry … and high value exit.
As I pointed out in the first line of this blog, the process is iterative – so once more, we return to market research / market validation.

2010-04-15 Assigned to MITEL NETWORKS CORPORATION reassignment MITEL NETWORKS CORPORATION ASSIGNMENT OF ASSIGNORS INTEREST (SEE DOCUMENT FOR DETAILS). Assignors: ARMSTRONG, KENNETH, SMITH, DAVID A.
The present application provides "hot desking" features for multi-device users. A number of automatic hot desking registrations are provided in which users are assigned multiple devices on a permanent basis. A private branch exchange or central switch can be provided with a list of these devices and can relieve the user of the requirement of registration by detecting use of these devices and assigning user features and other pertinent system properties e.g. as an indication of location for find me/follow me services. The extension allows for automatically hot desking using a listed device, hot desking based on a location associated with a listed device, and hot desking using declared associations of listed devices.
This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 61/212,831 titled EXTENDED HOT DESKING FEATURE FOR MULTI-DEVICE USERS which was filed on Apr. 16, 2009 by David Smith and Kenneth Armstrong and is hereby incorporated in its entirety.
This application generally relates to communications, and more particularly, to extending hot desking features for multi-device users.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,657,377 ('377 Patent) titled PORTABLE TELEPHONE USER PROFILES, which is assigned to Mitel Networks Corporation, Canada, describes how a user can register for feature services on a central switch from devices located anywhere in the network including that switch. As taught, when a user signals the central switch from a device on that switch, or from a device on another switch, features can be assigned to them on calls to and from that device. This is commonly termed "hot desking" and allows features to be assigned to a user rather than a specific device. With this, users can roam from device to device and receive the features that they require.
Hot desking can provide a user with their enterprise features from devices that are connected anywhere in the public switched telephone network. This can provide a form of registration which allows the system to route incoming calls to a roaming user. It can also allow the user to declare the device at which they can be found and allow the system to supply the user with their preferred features at that device.
The '377 Patent was developed to provide services to a single device. Today, however, users are often associated with multiple devices. For example, a user can have a cell phone, a residence telephone, an office telephone, etc. The provision of multiple devices extends the scenario in which the '377 Patent can be used, which as disclosed within the present application can maintain multiple devices that are permanently associated with the user but can shift registrations for the central switch (PBX) features among them. A user can at one time wish to receive their PBX calls on their cell phone and at another time have them routed to their residence telephone. This can provide the opportunity for extending the functionality of the '377 technology to provide more benefits to the user.
FIG. 4 provides an illustrative flow chart for "hot desking" a number of associated devices in accordance with one aspect of the present application.
The description set forth below in connection with the appended drawings is intended as a description of presently-preferred embodiments of the application and is not intended to represent the only forms in which the present application can be constructed and/or utilized. The description sets forth the functions and the sequence of steps for constructing and operating the application in connection with the illustrated embodiments. It is to be understood, however, that the same or equivalent functions and sequences can be accomplished by different embodiments that are also intended to be encompassed within the spirit and scope of this application.
The present application relates to communications, and more particularly, to provide hot desking features for multi-device users. The application describes automating the process of hot desking, which, as disclosed in the '377 Patent, is a manual process. A number of automatic hot desking registrations are provided below in which users are assigned multiple devices on a permanent basis. A private branch exchange (PBX) or central switch can be provided with a list of these devices and can relieve the user of the requirement of registration by detecting use of these devices and assigning user features and other pertinent system properties e.g. as an indication of location for find me/follow me services.
As will be shown below, the automatic techniques disclosed include, but are not limited to, automatically hot desking using a listed device, hot desking based on a location associated with a listed device, and hot desking using declared associations of listed devices. While discussed individually, those skilled in the relevant art will appreciate that any combination of these automatic techniques can be provided in any single embodiment.
The '377 Patent, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety, discloses a system for invoking a user profile. The switching system is intended as one example for providing user profile information and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present application. Modifications to the central switching system 100, depicted in FIG. 1, allow a user to automatically hot desk multiple devices. Generally described, and which will be provided in more details below, the modifications relate to hot desking using a listed device, hot desking based on a location associated with a listed device, and hot desking using declared associations of listed devices. The modifications will become apparent from the discussion provided below.
The central switching system 100 can include cell phones 102, office phones 104, and residential phones 106 connected to a remote switching system 108. The remote switching system 108 can be connected to a peripheral circuit 110 of a central switching system 100. Peripheral circuits 110 can be connected to message and circuit switches 112 and 114 respectively of a peripheral controller 116 of the central switching system 100. The peripheral controller 116 message switches 112 can be connected to a main system message switch 118 which can communicate with a central switching system controller 120 via a main system bus 122.
The peripheral controller circuit switches 114 can be connected to a main system circuit switch 124, which communicates with controller 120 via bus 122. Controller 120 can contain at least one processing unit, a memory containing operation programs, etc. The peripheral circuits 110 can contain line circuits, trunks, etc. e.g. which connect to local telephone sets 126, office phones 128, cell phones 130, etc.
A database 134 can be stored in a memory which is connected to bus 122. The database 134 can contain an activity map and have an entry associated with each physical device, which contains the state of the device and current user data. The current user data can include call record data for the call, and the user data associated with it. The call record data can include information about the current call and can be a dynamic data structure. The user data can be static, and can contain the data programmed in by the customer for a particular phone number, the user profile. What is programmed in by the customer for a particular telephone number can relate to their personal profile. The database 134, under control of controller 120, can be updated dynamically, thus assigning a user, with the user's profile including the user's telephone number.
As modified, the database 134 can also maintain a central table 138, a location-based table 140, and an association table 142. The central hot desking table 138 can be used to associate directory numbers of devices and the users who have been provided with the devices. The location-based hot desking table 140 can identify locations with the identity of an associated hot desking device, while the hot desking association table 142 can contain network addresses of devices that associate them with one or more devices that should be registered for hot desking with them. The database 134 can be updated with user profiles from a terminal 136 connected to bus 122 at the central switching system, or by a remote controlling means, or by updating the database 134 from data stored on a floppy disk or the like.
During the process of a call, the controller 120 can access the database 134, associating the user profile data with a device that is either remote or local to the system 100. The user profile data can contain at least a personal access code and directory number of the user. It can also contain at least one, and likely all of the data containing features and restrictions such as call forwarding, information, class of service, class of restriction, do not disturb settings, ring type, pick-up group number, interconnect number, call trace information, disconnect data, speed call information, network carrier numbers, etc. Each user having a particular telephone number has its own user profile characterized by the above.
While the central switching system 100 was described above, those skilled in the relevant art will appreciate that other systems and platforms can be used, such as a PBX. Furthermore, the components provided therein are for purposes of illustration and should not be construed as limiting to the present application.
The '377 Patent disclosed a manual technique for registering a device for hot desking services. This involved the user dialing a directory number on the central switch 100 and providing a user identity code. The identity code, in one previous embodiment, was a user directory number. An optional security code could also be presented to verify the registration, which could have been in the form of a personal identification number. Using that information, the central switch 100 obtained the directory number of the device that was to be registered using an automatic number identification (ANI), caller ID, or other signaling information.
As shown, registration for hot desking with the '377 Patent disclosed a logon procedure. While this is not an onerous procedure, it can be an irritant for a user with multiple devices assigned for their exclusive use. If the user wishes to assign one of their devices for hot desking or transfer hot desking between a pair of them, they typically repeat the logon procedure for each device.
To overcome multiple logons, and as an extension of the '377 Patent, FIG. 2 illustrates a flow chart diagramming processes for automatically associating a calling device with a user's profile in accordance with one aspect of the present application. The processes are provided from the perspective of the central switching system 100, but can be implemented from a variety of hardware and software platforms. Those skilled in the relevant art will appreciate that processes can be provided from the perspective of other components within the switch 100 or from the calling device itself. The processes can begin at block 200.
When a user calls the directory number on the central switch 100 that is assigned to hot desking services, the switch 100 can receive the call at block 202. Typically, the user calls from a passive entity through a distant switch. The distant switch can determine which lines go on and off. Tables on the distant switch can link the passive entity to a directory number. In one embodiment, the distant switch can operate using a trucking protocol, which is known to those skilled in the relevant art. At block 204, the switch 100 can receive the directory number of the calling device. Typically, the directory number is in the form of an ANI or caller ID information.
The central switch 100 can include a central table 138 that associates directory numbers of devices and the users who have been provided with them. At block 206, an automatic search of the central table 138 can be performed. At decision block 208, a determination is made whether a directory number was found within the central table 138. When the received directory number is not found, at block 210, a typical login procedure can be initiated, e.g. as described in the '377 Patent. In the alternative, when the received directory number is found, at block 214, an automatic hot desking registration on the external device can be performed for the associated user. The processes can end at block 212.
As disclosed below, and as an extension to the '377 Patent, another form of automatic registration for hot desking can be based on location sensing. Known to those skilled in the relevant art, location services are now becoming commonplace. Cellular companies provide services whereby the user can allow others to become aware of their location. Some cellphones can contain global positioning system (GPS) circuitry that allows a user to be located. Alternatively, the location of the base station to which a user's cellphone is connected provides a coarser idea of their location. Building location systems are also available.
To provide location-based hot desking, the database 134 can also include a location-based table 140. Each user, who is assigned a location-based hot desking service, can be provided with a table 140 in the central switch 100 that identifies locations with the identity of an associated hot desking device. A user can update their table 140 through a suitable management interface on terminal 136.
FIG. 3 depicts a flow chart showing exemplary processes for associating a user device based on its location in accordance with one aspect of the present application. The processes can begin at block 300. At block 302, the central switching system 100 can receive a location of a user device. At block 304, a search of the location-based table 140 can be performed using the location of the user device.
At decision block 306, the system 100 determines whether the location of the user device was found within the location-based table 140. When the location of the calling device is not found, at block 308, the central switching system 100 can provide a user profile to a default device. A default location service can be provided that indicates the preferred hot desking device when none of the locations in the user's table 140 match their current location. In one embodiment, the user's cellphone can be registered for hot desking if the user is not at any of the locations specified within their table 140. In the alternative, when the location of the calling device is found, at block 312, the central switching system 100 can hot desk the device associated with that location as indicated within their table 140. The processes can end at block 310.
The '377 Patent describes the provision of a single hot desking number for use at any one time. For a multi-device user, however, certain devices are associated so that if the user indicates that they are at one device for hot desking, this can be taken as an indication that the user is available at another device as well. A common example of this is the association of a WiFi device and cellular telephone within the same apparatus. This device can have two network addresses, i.e. a directory number of the cellphone and a session initiation protocol uniform resource identifier (SIP URI) assigned to the WiFi telephone. If the user registers one of these devices for hot desking, then the other device can be registered for hot desking services as well. As a function of hot desking associated devices, incoming calls can be directed to both of these devices.
FIG. 4 provides an illustrative flow chart for "hot desking" associated devices in accordance with one aspect of the present application. The processes can start at block 400. At block 402, the central switching system 100 can receive a call. The central switching system 100 can receive registration information from a first device at block 404. This information can include a directory number or some other identifying information.
At block 406, the system 100 can search the association table 142 using the information of the first device. Typically, for each user, there can be a table 142 of network addresses of devices that associates them with one or more associated deices that should be registered for hot desking with them. The network addresses can generally include a digit string or URI. At decision block 408, the central switch 100 can determine whether other associated devices were found within the association table 142. At block 410, and when no other devices were located, the central switch 100 can hot desk the first device. When other devices were found, at block 414, the central switch 100 hot desks devices associated with the first device along with the first device itself. The processes can end at block 412.
In accordance with one aspect of the present application, a computer-implemented method for invoking an operational profile on a user device is provided. The method can include receiving a directory number from a distant switch. In addition, the method can include determining whether the directory number corresponds with an operational profile when the directory number is received from the distant switch. The method can also include providing the operational profile to the user device dependent on the determination.
In one embodiment, receiving the directory number from the user device can include receiving a call from the user device and extracting the directory number from the call. In one embodiment, determining whether the directory number corresponds with the operational profile can include searching a central hot desking table.
In one embodiment, the method can further include receiving a predetermined sequence identifying the user device when the directory number does not correspond with an operational profile. In addition, the method can include identifying an operational profile associated with the user device from the sequence. The method can also include providing the operational profile to the user device.
In one embodiment, the sequence can include a user directory number and a personal access code. In one embodiment, the operational profile can include at least one of call forwarding information, do not disturb settings, ring time, pickup group number, interconnect number, call trace information, disconnect data, speed call information, network carrier identification, presence information, personal ring group information, presence and availability preferences, personal policy preferences, class of services, class of restrictions, interconnected cores, corporate identity, and network identification carriers. In one embodiment, the user device can be at least one of a mobile phone, a residence phone, and an office telephone.
In accordance with another aspect of the present application, a system is provided. The system can include a database for storing a location associated with a communication device. In addition, the system can include at least one processor and a memory operatively coupled to the processor, the memory storing program instructions that when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform processes. The processes can include receiving a position of a user device. In addition, the processes can include providing a user profile to the communication device when the position of the user device is at or proximate to the location of the communication device as indicated within the database.
In one embodiment, the position can be determined by a positioning system on the user device. In one embodiment, the position can be determined by a base station corresponding with the user device. In one embodiment, the position can be determined by a building locator corresponding with the user device. In one embodiment, the memory storing program instructions, that when executed by the processor, causes the processor to further update the database using a management interface. In one embodiment, the memory storing program instructions, that when executed by the processor, causes the processor to further provide the user profile to a default communication device when the position of the user device is not proximate to the location of the communication device as indicated within the database. In one embodiment, the default communication device can be a cellular phone.
In accordance with still yet another aspect of the present application, a central switch for providing user profiles is provided. The central switch can include a server that includes a database for storing network addresses for user devices and associations between the user devices. The server can include at least one processor and a memory operatively coupled to the processor, the memory storing program instructions that when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform processes.
The processes can include receiving a network address from a user device. In addition, the processes can include determining whether the user device is associated with at least one other device by identifying associations within the database. The processes can also include providing a user profile to the network address of the user device and to a network address of the at least one other device dependent on the determination.
In one embodiment, the user device can be a WiFi device and the at least one other device can be a cellular telephone. In one embodiment, the network address of the cellular phone can be a directory number. In one embodiment, the network address of the WiFi device can be a SIP URI. In one embodiment, the user device and the at least one other device can be located on the same apparatus. In one embodiment, the processor can further route incoming calls to the user device and the at least one other device dependent on the determination.

The United nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) is a result of the call made by leaders at the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20), held in Brazil June 2012, to strengthen and upgrade the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) as the leading global environmental authority that sets the global environment agenda and to establish universal membership in its Governing Council.
The first UNEA was held in 23-27 June 2014 in Naitobi Kenya, and was attended by over 1,065 participants, including 163 Member States and 113 Ministers. During the assembly, calls for international action on major environmental issue were made, including combating illegal wildlife trade, plastic debris in the oceans, chemicals, waste and air pollution.
As part of UNEA, the Philippines contributes to the review of the draft UNEP Medium-Term Strategy (MTS) dor 2018-2021 for approval in May 2016 during the second UNEA (UNEA-2). The MTS will act as a guide for UNEP to support governments in dealing with environmental issues. This includes outcome maps, which enables UNEP to identify milestones for 2030 goals.

Gigolo and Gigolette
Maugham Recordings
The Three Fat Women of Antibes
March 22, 2013 Audio Book Gigolo and Gigolette Maugham Recordings Review The Three Fat Women of Antibes
W. Somerset Maugham Reading the Three Fat Women of Antibes. Gigolo & Gigolette
W. Somerset Maugham Reading the 3 Fat Women of Antibes. Gigolo & Gigolette.
This is a short review of an historic audio book recording, of Maugham reading his two of his own short stories: "The Three Fat Women of Antibes"and "Gigolo and Gigolette."
This is a terrific object to possess for Maugham's admirers. For an hour one listens to how Maugham reads his own stories with a variety of tones and cadence. The experience is simply wonderful. The three women came impressively to life. The audience simply has to adore and laugh at them at the same time.
Garson Kanin mentions in his magnificent book Remembering Mr. Maugham the circumstance of this recording. As is well-known, Maugham, since he was a child, suffered from stammer. After knowing that King George VI overcame the same difficulty under the coaching of Dr. Lionel Logue (the events of which, not long ago, have been made into the movie The King's Speech (2010), not a favourite of mine though), Maugham sought him out.
Maugham appeared to feel much more comfortable afterwards in public appearances and in 1950, Maugham was the first author to record his own work for the Columbia Literary Series. Kanin helped to further ease Maugham's anxiety:
I explained to him [Maugham] that the recording would probably be done on tape and that any slips of errors could be easily erased and corrected. He was at once fascinated by the technical aspects and giggled like a child when I told him of opera singers beginning a session (while fresh) with the most difficult passages, and of the famous diva who sang more than twenty high A's before the recording supervisor got one he considered good enough.
"I shan't provide more than three of my high A's no...matter what they say!" said Maugham.
On October 24, 1950, WSM recorded (easily) seven of his stories, of which two—THE THREE FAT WOMEN OF ANTIBES and GIGOLO AND GIGOLETTE—are included in the album.
According to Goddard Lieberson [president of Columbia Records], a minimum of retakes was required, no more than usual. It would seem that because WSM knew that correction was possible, he was relieved of some of the strain and tension. Without the net below, he might have fallen. With its reassuring presence, he triumphed. (14)
Maugham certainly does a much better Stella Cotman than Glynis Jones, and is able to convey the anguish and dilemma of the character, which the reader can do nothing but pity. The most dramatic line (which is the last in the story but three quarters in the film) is delivered with such force, disdain and dignity mingled together, that makes Stella at the same time admirable.
The downside is that it is difficult to find copies in the market. It was issued in vinyl and audio cassettes. Check back at Amazon for W. Somerset Maugham Reading the 3 Fat Women of Antibes. Gigolo & Gigolette from time to time, or visit local garage sales!
[UPDATE 16 October 2013: This album is now available in iTunes store very cheaply.]

Hi, For some reason I bid, and won an LP of a W. Somerset Maugham "The Lotus Eater" LP read by Alan Howard for $8.99. It's on its way. I don't know who Alan Howard is, but I thought it cool that it was put out on vinyl as opposed to a tacky books-on-tape production.
My Maugham Collection September 28, 2015
I don't know either, not much of a fan of audio books... How old is it? "The Lotus Eater" is one of my top favourites.
It looks to be from the 60's or 70's but I could be wrong. I hope this Alan Howard in British. I wouldn't be right otherwise.
Unknown October 02, 2015
It's from 1981.

MW / Home / Reviews / JOHN DIVA & THE ROCKETS OF LOVE: American Amadeus
AMERICAN AMADEUS
SPV STEAMHAMMER
80's, Easy-Listening
"Lovers of glam and 80's hard rock, this "American Amadeus" is made for you!"
LYNOTT (06.01.2021)
(0) opinions from our readers (0) comment(s)
Here is John Diva & The Rockets Of Love, back at the end of the year 2020. Adept of an outrageously glamorous look, this German combo with a resolutely provocative attitude had conquered two years ago the nostalgics of the time when Mötley Crüe held the front of the stage. If the freshness and the good mood had seduced us, the very (too) strong tribute to the leading bands of the 80s had however earned him a slight flat. So what does Diva propose to us this time?
Let's start by reassuring the fans, the band has not changed his initial artistic intentions. Once again the Germans offer us joy, good humor, derision (unreasonableness?), energy, friendly radio refrains and clichés. In short, it's sex, drugs & rock'n'roll on every track, and no matter how empty the lyrics are, we're not here for that, it's glam rock, let's not forget it.
This time, you'll have the pleasure to find Skid Row on 'Karmageddon', a ballad with a nice final acceleration, Cinderella with 'Wasted (In Babylon)' and its galvanizing chorus, and Aerosmith on the chorus of 'Drip Drip Baby' which furiously reminds us of Tyler's 'Pink'. But you will hear as well, as on the first opus, Def Leppard on the eponymous title, the verses of 'Drip Drip Baby' and those of the eponymous song, but also Bon Jovi on 'Week End For A Lifetime'. Beyond these profoundly marked references, it is appropriate to complete this approach to the content of the work by specifying that almost all of these pieces could have been interpreted by Steel Panther or Reckless Love, both now successors of Mötley Crüe.
Lovers of glamour, opulence, playfulness and 80's hard rock, this record is made for you. John Diva & The Rockets Of Love continue to invent nothing but at least they give us fun.

L'appellativo di sua maestà cristianissima (in francese: sa Majesté très-chrétienne, SMTC) era il titolo tradizionalmente spettante ai re di Francia.

Distinzioni
Pur non essendoci alcun sovrano attualmente in Francia, il titolo si differenzia fra i tre pretendenti al trono:

 Legittimisti: "altissimo, potentissimo ed eccellentissimo principe X, per grazia di Dio re di Francia e di Navarra, re cristianissimo" ("Très haut, très puissant et très excellent prince X, par la grâce de Dieu roi de France et de Navarre, roi très-chrétien").
 Orleanisti: "X, per grazia di Dio e per la legge costituzionale dello stato, re dei francesi" ("X, par la grâce de Dieu et par la loi constitutionnelle de l'État, roi des français").
 Bonapartisti: "X, per grazia di Dio e costituzione della repubblica, imperatore dei francesi" ("X, par la grâce de Dieu et les constitutions de la République, empereur des français").

Rex francorum
Il termine latino "Rex francorum" è stato il titolo latino ufficiale del re dei Franchi dopo l'adesione della dinastia carolingia al trono di Francia. Questo titolo è stato utilizzato nei documenti ufficiali fino al XVIII secolo. Tuttavia, a partire dal 1204, il titolo veniva alternato a quello di "Rex Franciae" (re di Francia), il quale divenne, nel 1226, con la salita al trono di Luigi IX il Santo, il titolo ufficiale del regno.

Re cristianissimo
Il titolo "rex christianissimus" ebbe le sue origini dal lungo e pacifico rapporto con la Chiesa cattolica. La Francia era stata il primo stato moderno riconosciuto ufficialmente dalla Chiesa ed è stata appellata come la figlia prediletta della Chiesa. Clodoveo I, re dei Franchi, era stato riconosciuto dal papa come protettore di Roma.

Di conseguenza, questo titolo è stato riconosciuto ai sovrani francesi. Durante il regno di Carlo VII il titolo di maestà cristianissima venne riconosciuto come appellativo ereditario ed esclusivo dei re di Francia.

Re dei francesi
Con la rivoluzione francese arrivò il momento di scrivere una carta costituzionale per la Francia. Fra le varie riforme il sovrano cessò di essere un governante assoluto che traeva la propria legittimità direttamente da Dio, e divenne un sovrano costituzionale legittimato della volontà del popolo francese e per il bene del popolo francese.

Mediante il decreto del 12 ottobre 1789, il titolo regale venne modificato da "Per grazia di Dio, re di Francia e Navarra" a "Per grazia di Dio e della legge costituzionale dello Stato, re dei francesi" ("Par la grâce de Dieu et par la loi constitutionnelle de l'État, roi des français"), diventando ufficiale con la pubblicazione della nuova carta costituzione del 1º ottobre 1791.

Imperatore dei francesi
Il titolo di "imperatore dei francesi" era l'appellativo coniato ed utilizzato da Napoleone Bonaparte a partire dal 1804. I monarchici bonapartisti ed i successori di Napoleone continuano a reclamare ed utilizzare questo titolo.

S.137(1) of the 1997 Constitution provides for the establishment of a Cadi Court in such places as the Chief Justice shall determine.
CONSTITITION
S.137(2) of the 1997 Constitution provide that the Cadi Court shall be constituted for hearings at first instance by a panel consisting of the Cadi and two other scholars of the Sharia qualified to be a Cadi or Ulama.
This subsection used to have parts 9a) and (b). The later was deleted by the Constitution (Amendment) Act No.6 of 2001.
S.137(6) of the Constitution provides that a person shall be required to be of high moral standing and be professionally qualified in the Sharia in order to be appointed a Cadi or Ulama..
S.137(3) of the Constitution provides that the decision of the majority of a panel of a Cadi Court shall constitute the decision of the Court.
S.137(4) provides that the Cadi Court shall only have jurisdiction to apply the Sharia in matters of marriage, divorce and inheritance where the parties or other persons interested are Muslims.
MOHAMMEDAN COURT
This is the forerunner to the Cadi Court. It has been replaced by the Cadi Court. There were two Mohammedan Courts, namely, the Mohammedan Court of Banjul and the Kombo Saint Mary Mohammedan Court.
The Mohammedan Court of Banjul was established by S.4 of the Mohammedan Law Recognition Act Cap 6:04 Vol.II Laws of The Gamier 1990. The Kombo Saint Mary Mohammedan Court was established by S.5 of the same Act.
S.6(1) of the Mohammedan Law Recognition Act provide that each of such Court shall be constituted by a Cadi to be appointed by the Judicial Service Commission. The proviso to S.6(2) states that –
(a) Whenever in the opinion of the Minister, a Cadi of a Court is not a man of uncontested ability, the Court shall be constituted by the Cadi and two assessors.
(b) Whenever an office of Cadi is vacant or a Cadi is unable by reason of absence from the City of Banjul or Kombo Saint Mary or illness or incapacity or perform the duties of his office, the Court shall be constituted by two or more Assessors and the senior shall give the judgment of the Court.
An assessor here is defined in S.692) of the Act to mean a person of the Mohammedan faith who is a justice of the peace of the City of Banjul or Kombo Saint Mary.
The power to select Assessors for this is vested on the Chief Justice by S.6(3) of the Act.
S.7 of the said Act provide that –
"Each court shall have jurisdiction in all causes and matters, contentious or uncontentious, between or exclusively affecting Mohammedan Africans, relating to civil status, marriage, succession, donations, testaments and guardianship." "
S.12 of the said Act provides that –
"The Minister may, by Order published in the Gazette, confer upon the Kombo Saint Mary Mohammedan Curt jurisdiction to enforce within the limits of its jurisdiction all or any of the provisions of any Act or Acts specified in such Order and to impose penalties on person subject to the jurisdiction of the court who offend against such provisions, if any, as may be specified in the Order."
S.9(1) of the Act provide that an appeal shall be from any decision of the Mohammedan Court of Banjul to the High Court. S.10(1) makes similar provisions for appeal to the High Court from a decision of the Kombo Saint Mary Court.
For the purpose of hearing such appeal, a Tamsir or person learned in the Mohammedan law shall sit as Assessor to the Chief Justice for advisory purposes only. See S.9(2) and S.1092) of the Mohammedan Law Recognition Act.
CADI APPEALS PANEL
S.137(4) of the 1997 Constitution provide that any party to a proceeding in the Court who is dissatisfied with a decision of the Court may appeal to the Cadi Appeals Panel.
The Cadi Appeals Panel is established by S.137A(1) of the 1997 Constitution.
CONSTITUTION AND QUORUM
The Constitution of the Panel is prescribed by S.137A(1) as follows –
(a) a chairperson; and
(b) not less than four other members.
By virtue of S.137A(1) the quorum of the Panel when sitting to deal with any matter before it shall be constituted by three members of the Panel. S.137A(3) provides that the chairperson of the Panel shall preside at a sitting of the Panel and in his or her absence, the most senior member shall preside.
S.137(A)(4) provide that the Chairperson and other members of the Panel shall be appointed by a Cadi Appeals Selection committee which shall consist of –
(a) The Chief Justice;
(b) The Attorney General; and
(c) A member of the Supreme Islamic Council nominated by that Council.
S.137(A)(5) provides that a person shall not be qualified for appointment to the Cadi Appeals Panel –
(a) As a Chairperson, unless the person –
(i) Is a legal practitioner and has been so qualified for a period of not less than five years and
(ii) Is professionally qualified in the Sharia.
(b) As a member, unless the person is professionally qualified in the Sharia.
S.137(a)(6) of the Constitution vests in the Panel. The jurisdiction to hear and determine appeals from judgments of the Cadi Court and from the District Tribunals where Sharia Law is involved.
POWER TO MAKE RULES OF PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE
The power to make rules of practice and procedure of the Panel is vested by S.137A(7) of the Constitution on the Cadi Appeals Selection Committee.
1. The Mohammedan Law Recognition Act or any part of it has not been repealed or abrogated expressly or by necessary implication by any law of the Gambia.
Ss.137 did not vest exclusive jurisdiction on the Cadi Courts to apply the Sharia in matters of marriage, divorce and inheritance of Muslims. It merely vested such jurisdiction on Cadi Courts without more. S.137(A)(6) of the Constitution show that the constitutional intendment is to allow for the concurrent exercise of that jurisdiction by other Courts. It provides for the hearing and determination of appeals from the decisions of District Tribunals on Sharia law matters. The entire constitution remain silent on the Mohammedan law Recognition Act and the Mohammedan Courts created there under. So that the Mohammedan Courts and the jurisdiction vested in those Courts continue to subsist.
Equally the appellate jurisdiction vested in the High Court to hear and determine appeals from the decision of the Mohammedan Courts on Islamic personal law matters by Ss.7 and 12 of the said Act is not abrogated. S.137(A)(6) in vesting jurisdiction on the Cadi Appeals Panel to hear appeals from decisions of Cadi Courts and District Tribunals on Sharia Law did not make it exclusive.
In Harding V Harding[1][1]
The challenge to the jurisdiction of the Kombo Saint Mary Mohammedan Court and the decision that the Court was not constituted as required by S.137(2) of the Constitution and that the Mohammedan Law Recognition was in conflict with the constitution proceeded on the assumption that the Mohammedan Law Recognition Act is in conflict with the 1990 Constitution and the Mohammedan Court System became abolished upon the commencement of the 1997 Constitution by virtue of S.137(2) of the said Constitution. It is clear from the foregoing observation that this assumption is wrong. There is clearly no conflict between the Constitution and the said Act. The mere fact the jurisdiction vested in an existing Court by an Act of the National Assembly, is also vested by the Constitution on another Court, does not necessarily mean that the Act is thereby in conflict with the constitution or that the Court created under the Act ceases to exist. Unless the wordings of the Constitution show an intention to abrogate the Act or the Court created there under, it is wrong in law to read such a meaning into them. The repeal of an enactment can only be express or by necessary implication. In Lt Jarju and Anor V State,[2][2] the Gambia Court of Appeal was confronted with the determination of the question, whether S.35 of the Criminal Code Cap.10 Vol.III Laws of the Gambia 1990 is in conflict with S.6(1) of the Constitution for the reason that the offences of treason provided for in S.6(1) of the Constitution does not include the offences prescribed in S.35 of the Criminal Code. The Court held that there is no conflict between S.35 of the Criminal Code and S.6(1) of the Constitution and that the later merely creates a further category of the kind of acts or omissions that can amount to treason.
The ouster of the jurisdiction vested by an enactment on a Court created by that or other enactment must be express and cannot be by implication.[3][3]
2. S.137 does not indicate who has the power to convene the Cadi Appeals Selection Committee. It appears that the power can be exercised by the Chief Justice by virtue of S.121(2) of the Constitution which states that he or she is to be responsible for the administration and supervision of the Courts.
3. It is not clear why S.137(A)(7) did not also empower the Cadi Appeals Selection committee to make rules of practice and procedure for the Cadi Courts and only limited the exercise of that power to the Cadi Appeals Panel. Although S.121(20 of the Constitution provides that an Act of the National Assembly may provide for the making of rules by the Chief Justice or such other authority as may be specified therein for regulating the practice and procedure of the Courts, it is suggested for obvious advantages that S.137(A)(7) be amended to empower the Cadi Appeals Selection Committee to also make rules of practice and procedure for Cadi Courts.
4. The phrase "professionally qualified in the Sharia" as used in S.137(6) and S.137(A)(5)(ii) and (b) of the Constitution is not definite. It begs the question, who is professionally qualified in the Sharia. There is nothing in any part of any of the laws of the Gambia prescribing professional qualification in the Sharia or the professional practice of Sharia law. S.137(6) and 137(A)(5)(a)(ii) and (b) may prove that it may also be difficult to properly constitute the Cadi Courts and Cadi Appeals Panel. In addressing the issue it must be borne in mind that there is a distinction between a person learned in Islamic theology or Sharia and a person professionally qualified in the Sharia. The idea of a professional qualification, to my mind, means that in addition to being learned in the Sharia, a person has been professionally trained, certified and is admitted to practice Sharia Law.
It is equally noteworthy that the above phrase is different from the phrase "a person qualified in the Sharia."

There was a time when I did no testing at all. (As The Kooks sing "You're so naive"). And Spycify was started and achieved it's first releases with about 0 tests. Those first versions were working, but had a whole bunch of annoying bugs. The only way I had is to do massive refactoring of whole app.
Previos versions were checked manually. I started a devserver, clicked through changed parts to see does it works. Sometimes this would not help and I had to upload app to production to test it there, manually, of course. Massive refactoring was a nice chance to start using automate testing. No more manual clicking and repeating myself.
Recently I've launched my first site, that was revealed to some friends whose critisism I'm not afraid of :). It is called Spycify, and was made just for fun using Python, Google App Engine and some outside APIs.
Actually I saw facedetection API on Programmable Web, and decided that I should do something with it. There was no doubt on selecting programming language. It is Python for sure. As a hosting/framework I've chosen Google App Engine. I see it as a free place for little experiments. I know my service wouldn't need any highscalability, performancability or other cool-abilities. This is just a good place to host a little project, fast to code, fast to deploy. I know that if I place my service on GAE it will be there forever some forseeable future, so I can come back to it, if I want to and show it. There's no need to think about hosting, domain name or something like this - it "just works".


The executive of Cathay Pacific Airlines' pilots' union has resigned little greater than per week after contributors rejected a revised be offering to finish a long-standing commercial dispute.
Darryl Soligo stated it were "an honour and a privilege … however the time has come for the Hong Kong Aircrew Officials Affiliation (HKAOA) to take a unique course".

The snub induced some contributors to name for the union management to be sacked.
"We're weaker as an affiliation once we act in opposition to the ones whose handiest function is to constitute you to the most productive in their talent," Soligo stated, acknowledging 11 motions put ahead by way of contributors, one among which was once to take away the union heads.
Regardless of contributors being overwhelmingly disappointed concerning the deal, the HKAOA stated the top turnout "will have to no longer be observed as a rejection of the method".
The union stated it could proceed to press for a answer with the airline on extra simply resolved problems akin to pilot paintings schedules and flying patterns.
Thornier issues – akin to housing bills and per 30 days money stipends, which had led to a generational divide within the pilot neighborhood – will require extra time, till the airline's 2018 monetary effects had been published in March.
A part of the focal point was once to make sure the airline remained a profession airline, which the failure to succeed in a deal had put doubtful, the union stated.
The HKAOA said extra needed to be carried out to succeed in a just right deal and to find out what the airline may just be offering to make sure pilots would vote to get to the bottom of the dispute.
The second one failure to finish the commercial rigidity, and by way of a much broader margin than the primary in 2016, was once a warning call, consistent with Soligo.
Soligo was once appointed chairman in past due 2016 on a mandate to rally pilots in combination and search a handle the corporate in a extra diplomatic and non violent approach than his predecessor.
On the other hand, the union entered talks with Cathay at a time when the embattled airline was once shedding cash, dealing with robust festival and dropping jobs as a part of a raft of cost-saving measures.
One pilot, who declined to be named, stated of Soligo's report: "Darryl represented a unique course, a much less confrontational one, with the hopes of enticing the corporate. He was once elected a couple of years in the past when other folks had been impatient with the former chairman.

Seems like these days, we're constantly hearing about how things need to be big. Oversized pillows, supersized food, massive warehouse stores with (finger-quotes) "huge savings." Everyone seems to think that bigger is better! Look, I know you want your business to see big profits and big success, but it's time to talk about the power of small.

With summer coming to a close, cool summer nights finally arrive. Summer, I'm sad to see you go but I'm so excited for Fall. As I patiently wait to wear chunky knits and boots, I recently wore my new favorite boyfriend jeans from Zara with an old Free People tank (strappy back bra underneath) and my favorite sandals from Schutz, while out in Hoboken.
These jeans are super soft making them comfortable to wear all day. I have another pair of Destroyed BF jeans from One Teaspoon but they're too stiff to wear comfortably. I can barely move when I wear them! These are a fraction of the cost and I wish I could wear them everyday.

Lake Alfred, Fla. (October 2, 2015) – The final round of the WBWS kicked off this morning in gorgeous Houston, Texas for the Malibu Houston Pro event at Bel Ray Action Sports Park. This morning we saw both wakesurf and wakeboard pro divisions hit the waters behind the Malibu Wakesetter 25 LSV equipped with Surf Gate.
With a great wave pushed out by the Malibu Surf Gate for the Women's wakesurf finals, it was Jodi Grassman putting in a jaw dropping run with the Surfband behind the Malibu Surf Gate to take the win with Raleigh Hager and Stacia Bank grabbing the second and third.
The day was highlighted by Noah Flegel, who put together a flawless run in the Pro Men's Wakesurf Final. After qualifying with the top seed, Flegel managed to repeat the performance when it counted to secure first place in the final followed by Parker Payne in second and Grant Witherell in third.
After the awards were given out to the pro wakesurfers, the pro men and women wakeboarders geared up for their qualifying heats. Once again the women were up first which saw Ashley Leugner taking the heat win with Corrie Wilson, Jamie Lopina, Larisa Morales, Chloe Mills and Carolina Rodrigues all advancing to the semi-finals tomorrow where they will suit up next to the top six WBWS women who were already prequalified.
The intensity couldn't be higher here at the Bel Ray Action Sports Park as the Pro Men hit the water for qualifying, with only the top four advancing. It was the young gun, Josh Twelker taking heat one win with Stephen Pierce and Chad Sharpe grabbing the top spot in heat two and three.
Day two of the Malibu Houston Pro begins tomorrow with Pro Women wakeboard semi-finals, Pro Men wakeboard quarter finals and over at Hanger 9 the cable divisions begin. Look to see the crowds continue to build tomorrow as things begin to heat up here in Houston, Texas.
