April 7, 2017 | Red Deer, AB – Westerner Park is pleased to announce that another successful Red Deer Motors North American Pony Chuckwagon Championships Tarp Auction was held on Wednesday, April 5th at Bellinis Sonic Lounge in the Sheraton Red Deer Hotel.
Businesses were vying for the opportunity to display their business name and logo on one of the 48 wagons slated to participate during the 2017 Westerner Days Fair & Exposition. The Red Deer Motors North American Pony Chuckwagon Championships are an anticipated annual event and are viewed by nearly 4,000 spectators each night of the fair.
The highest selling tarp for the evening went to Urban Underground/Knight Capp Industries from Sherwood Park who purchased Garry Thiel for $8,200. The total of the auction was $130,175 for an average of $2,325 per tarp.
Mark your calendars for 5 days of excitement for the Red Deer Motors North American Pony Chuckwagon Championships during the 2017 Westerner Days Fair and Exposition from Wednesday, July 19 to Sunday, July 23.


One thing that is very memorable to me about the Camino is the copious amount of delicious food. There is something about walking all day that makes any meal taste good, and therefore good food tastes as if it were sent from the heavens. We would usually start off the day with a small breakfast of fruit, pastries, and yogurt before beginning the day's walk. When we started to get hungry and lethargic a few hours in, we would stop for a café con leche, which is similar to a latte in America, and a bocadillo, which is basically a huge sandwich made on half of a baguette (and this is still before noon).
When all of us finally arrive at our destination, we would go to get lunch at a local restaurant. This is not your average lunch, however; it is a menú peregrino, which is pretty much a three course meal. For the first course, there was usually an option of a salad, pasta bolognese, soup, or some sort of fried food, such as calamari. The second course generally consisted on a protein (eggs, pork, chicken, eggs, lamb, eggs… did I mention eggs?) and French fries. Bread was also a common staple; we were served copious amounts of bread with every meal. After that, we would have dessert, which could be flab, ice cream, fruit, cake, or arroz con leche. Needless to say, we were fed well.
Croquetas are little fried balls that look a little bit like hush puppies, except the inside is a mixture of meat, potato, and cheese. When croquetas were an option, we ordered them.
Jamón is Spanish ham, and it is usually smoked or cured. It is an ingredient in most Spanish foods, and is way better than ham in the United States. It is also a bocadillo staple.
Arroz con leche is a rice pudding, but better than any rice pudding you have ever had.
Tarta de Santiago is a dense cake covered in powdered sugar, and is completely delicious.
We also tried our fair share of strange foods, which you would be hard pressed to find in the United States.
Pulpo is octopus, which is usually boiled and served with red pepper. I was nervous to try it but found out that I actually love it, and it got better and better as we neared the ocean.
Oreja is pig's ear, which I was conned into eating by my fellow peregrino Mark. I was not as big of a fan of that one.
My favorite part about traveling is generally the food that I get the opportunity to try, and Spain has been no different. We have had so much and so many types of food; I am excited to try more.
Without a doubt, my favorite village of the Camino was O'Cebreiro. Nestled in the Cantabrian mountains at an altitude of 1300m, O'Cebreiro was the first town on the Camino that was part of Galicia. What's fascinating about Galicia is that it has a heavy Celtic influence, which makes it incredibly different than any other Spanish region. There is such a strong Celtic presence because in 600 BC, the Celts invaded the region. Not only that, but because of it's location on the French Camino, it has also been influenced by the millions of northern Europeans who have traveled through the town.
The town was constructed in the 9th century, which gave the town a very antique setting. The buildings were all made of stone and had never been reconstructed so the stones that we saw and felt were the same stones that were used in the construction. It is an absolutely incredible feeling to sit in the exact room that was used 12 centuries ago. However, with this sense of awe and admiration came the eerie feeling that the town had to be haunted. Talking about scary stories and horror movies at dinner didn't help either. By the time I went to bed, I was completely convinced that I was going to be murdered by the ghosts that haunted the town.
The hike to O'Cebreiro was surprisingly not bad at all. Rachel and Mike both kept on talking about how difficult and steep the hike was. The hike was definitely steep and probably the steepest thing I had ever climbed, but the scenery that came along with it was beyond anything I have ever seen in my entire life. If a Heaven does exist, I believe the view from O'Cebreiro is what it looks life. I was surrounded by mountains and tasted the freshest air that could possibly exist on the planet. The entire hike was only 16km and took about four hours surprisingly enough.
Once the entire group arrived in O'Cebreiro, we gad a delicious Galician meal: Galician soup (it had kale and potatoes), tortilla de patata, and tarte de Santiago. After lunch, Dom and I visited the little church which supposedly holds the Holy Grail. I say "supposedly" because obviously no one knows for sure exactly what happened to the Holy Grail and there are many other places in the world that claim they have this historical artifact. Nonetheless, it was a very powerful to be in the presence of something that has such an impact on history and religion. After the church, Dom and I climbed a hill that overlooked O'Cebreiro. The view was absolutely breathtaking. I could spin in circles and I would be able to see mountains for miles and miles. It reminded me of Julie Andrews in the beginning of the movie, The Sound of Music. That is honestly the best way I can describe the view.
Although O'Cebreiro may be a little eerie at night, the culture, history, and scenery of this small village cannot be surpassed. Everything in this town is incredibly unique and would not be found anywhere else. I can't wait to do the Camino again just to visit O'Cebreiro once more.
Today's walk consisted of 15 kilometers between two very small villages, specifically Ambasmestas to the small village of O Cebreiro. O Cebreiro, one of the first villages you come across as you cross into Galicia, has been able to maintain much if its medieval charm over the years and you can walk through the entirety of the town in about 2 minutes.
I decided to walk most of the day alone, which I had not done yet on the trip. It was very different walking the trail without talking to anyone else, and as a result I was able to take in all of my surroundings in silence while completing the physical challenges of the trek. This particular day of hiking involved a steeper incline up a mountain and a very rocky terrain to go along with it. When I say that the strain of the ascent was worth it, it is a gross understatement. The final 5 kilometers of today's journey provided some of the best views of the trip thus far, and possibly some of the best I've ever seen.
Towards the end of the day's walk, we ended up talking to two girls from Germany, one of whom was in a very similar situation as me. She spoke great English and explained that she had just finished her studies and would be starting to work when she returned back to Deutschland. Sounds familiar. Right before we finished walking for the day, I stopped and was taking in an incredible view and snapping some pictures. As the girls passed me, the one with the great English said, "You shouldn't take so many pictures – you just have to feel it!" I stopped and thought about the comment for a moment before realizing that she was absolutely right. I had been so quick to pull out my iPhone and take pictures of noteworthy sights along the trail that I may not have felt the moment of scene or object properly. Instead of looking at the things through the window of my iPhone camera, I should be living in them and truly feeling the experience.
The hike into O'Cebreiro is not the highest one but definitely one of the steepest. The hike started out pretty uneventful and as we continued toward the mountains. After about 4km the trail started rising and would not stop until we reached O'Cebreiro. The path turns to dirt and is covered in shade by the overhanging trees and is filled with continuous switchbacks as we continued to climb higher and higher. Although other days had taken a physical toll on my body today was the first that tested my cardio. All the hard work was worth it when we broke the treeline and were treated with stunning views of the valley below. After a final push we cross into the province of Galcia and then to O'Cebreiro. Galicia is famous for its Celtic influence, large amount of rain, and regional language called Gallegos which is a mix of Portuguese and Spanish. Reaching the town felt great and I remember talking to a Spanish man the night before ands he told me when you get to the top you will have the knowledge that you struggled and achieved the great distance and altitude by own personal grit and perseverance.
O'Cebreiro is a tiny town from the 9th century. We explored and saw original buildings that had been restored and the local church which they said holds the Holy Grail. My favorite part of the town by far was the cross located on a nearby peak. I went up there with Alex for the views. The cross was super cool because in the crack people had put coins in, Alec and I left our mark by putting the 3rd and 2nd tallest coins respectively. I love all the traditions and such that have been carried on on the Camino which I can participate in.
One of the best parts of my personal Camino was meeting other peregrinos that were not in our group. It was amazing to hear the stories of how each person ended up on this incredible journey and where they came from.
One such person was a guy from New York named Patrick. Dom, Jesse, Jack, and I met him in Ambas Mestas outside of the restaurant because he was looking for a Bob Dylan zippo lighter he had left there earlier that day. He ended up finding it, which he was very excited about because he had had the lighter for over 10 years.
We all got to talking, and we learned that he was an actor in New York City who was working as a car salesman before he came on the Camino. Because of issues at work and a desire to explore the world, he quit his job and booked a one-way ticket to France to begin the Camino. He arrived there on his birthday, April 26, and started walking. I love the idea of that: leaving your entire life behind to go to a foreign country in which you don't know the language in order to find out more about yourself. And to do that alone takes a certain kind of strength that I really admire. Because he had no itinerary or plans of any sort, he was able to take his time, stopping for a few days in certain towns or cities and walking until he felt like he wanted to rest.
After that night, we saw him in various places and towns as we got closer to Santiago, and his face was always one that we were happy to see.
Another day on the trail, Coryn and I decided to stop for a coffee, and sat with an Australian woman and her son, who we soon learned to be named Amanda and Sage, respectively. As it turns out, Sage was an eighth grader, and was taking a 3 month vacation from school in order to do this trip. Apparently, in Australia it isn't a big deal to take a few months off of school to travel the world. I wish they did that in the United States! Because you learn about so many different cultures and people while traveling, they think that it it worth missing school. He is only 14 and has already been to every continent except the Americas and Antarctica. We also saw these people as we continued through the Camino.
One of my greatest interests, in regards to careers, is helping those with physical disabilities. Coming to Spain, I was very interested to see how the country has approached these issues and what solutions they have provided. Also, I wanted to pose the same questions to the camino. In America, handicap accessibility is something that goes unquestioned, as it should. Almost every building and city haw some aspect that allows the mobility of persons with physical disabilities. This is not the case from what I have seen so far in Spain. Many of the cities and towns here are very old, and in the olden days handicapped people were not looked upon as valuable members of society. Therefore, providing then with the means of practical mobility was not necessary. This has reflected into the towns and cities of modern Spain. The cobble stone streets, and very tall stair cases all pose nearly impossible obstacles to handicapped people. I could not imagine using a wheel chair in many of these crowded, bumpy streets. On the Camino, the trails have basically all been impossible for handicapped people to travel on. The albergues also didn't have any elevators or ramps for them either. I have only seen one albergue thy said it was handicap friendly. This disregard to people with handicaps is unjustified. We have the technology to provide the same abilities for these people who can't do it themselves.
With Industrial Design, we can face these problems and find Suriname to help these people. Wheel chairs can be designed to handle the cobble stones and rough terrain. Ramps could be installed in stores and buildings. Elevators and lifts could be placed in albergues, or handicap albergues should be built with in certain distances along the camino. The history of the country is beautiful and should be protected, but not to the extent that members of our society have to e excluded.
The only thing I had ever been skeptical about this trip was the people I would be hiking with. Considering we'd all be together for 5 weeks straight without a day to spare, I was hoping they'd be at least tolerable. After 4 days of being on this trip, there are no words to describe how close we've become in the short time we've known each other. There's something about being a Hokie that is so unique and specific to our VT community. No matter where we are, whether in Blacksburg, or hiking el camino in Northern Spain, we, Hokies, always carry our 8 principles with us. Every single person in our camino group has already made a tremendous impact on our trip thus far. First, there's Dom–who can simply be described as The Life of the Party. His bubbly personality and never ending energy serves as an endless motivation for the group to get up each morning at 6 a.m. to start our trek. Then there is Coryn and Mark, our dubbed parents of the group. Both recently graduated making them the oldest, and in most cases, the wisest of the clan. Then there's Jack, who always has a smile on his face and always in the best of spirits. Anna and Christina are probably the quietest of the group and most definitely the sweetest. They're calm personas balance out our crazy, happy-go-lucky crew. Alec is so awesome because he's so relaxed and easy going, and then will just crack random jokes out of no where. Erin is definitely our in-group medic. She ALWAYS has supplies for whatever and is one of the most laid-back, easy going people in our group. Jesse serenades us before we go to be in his deep tenor, all-district voice, which is the perfect lullaby to lead us into siesta. Kendal is the baby of the group, the youngest freshman here. She ALWAYS is giggling about something but she's adorable so she's totally allowed to. Then there is Cam, who's been my partner in crime since day 1. We're always cracking jokes and almost get along TOO well. Her facial expressions are the absolute greatest. Ethan, a rising senior in architecture, is maybe the best thing since sliced bread. Such a easy going, flat out fun person. He's so mature yet knows how to have fun and when to wind down. Last but not least, our group leader Annie and her loyal helper, Rachel. I couldn't have imagined a more fun, energetic, and brilliant group. Rachel is by far the most genuinely kind person I've met in so long. She's your right hand whenever you need her and just an overall awesome person to have here. Annie is full of so much knowledge about everything "Camino" and has so much wise advise to offer us whenever need be. Her passion for studying abroad and the camino is shown through her class she instructs and interactions with her on the trail. She's the absolute perfect balance between chill and a second mom.

To kick off the New Year, we started our 30 Days of Fitness at Flybarre in Buckhead. This low impact 45-minute class was taught by Cameron Armstrong, whose extensive background in fitness comes through dance.
Prior to arriving at their West Paces Ferry studio, I was informed that all equipment would be provided. I reserved my mat online, which led to a speedy check-in on one of the studio laptops once I arrived. Although there is only one barre room, I made sure place my belongings in one of their secured lockers prior to grabbing a towel and a set of one pound or two pound weights (I chose to use a set of one pound weights).
Before this workout my body felt quite normal, but during, I could feel my muscles burning as the hardest part for me was completing as many reps as Cameron the instructor. But, the more I did, the easier it felt, especially with such great music to accompany the workout. Toward the end of this 45-minute class, every muscle in my body felt as though it had been used. My body was tight and there was no more jiggle! Visit Flybarre's website and sign up for your first class for free!

Q: How do I get SQL Profiler to show statements with column names like 'password'? I'm profiling a database just now and need to see the UPDATE and INSERT statements being executed on a particular table.
However, because the table has a 'Password' column the SQL Profiler is being understandingly cautious and replacing the TextData column with:
-- 'password' was found in the text of this event.
-- The text has been replaced with this comment for security reasons.
How do I prevent it doing this because I need to see the SQL statement being executed?

A: *

*Revert to sql server 2000 sp3

*Upgrade to sql server 2005

*Use this hack which PATCHES sqlservr.exe & definitely not supported by microsoft.

Yesterday I wrote about how much in need of a lesson I am. Chemaine Hurtado, my trainer, saw the post and made a suggestion on Facebook.
While we aren't suddenly "fixed," Chemaine's suggestion did do wonders. Izzy was a bit tired from the ride from the day before, but even so, he was still much more willing to canter when I simply scooped with my seat. It will be wonderful to have a horse who is that responsive to just a seat aid.
I guess that's why we pay the trainers the big bucks. They see the things we can't yet see. Obviously, I've been doing my job correctly if Izzy is getting to the point where he needs a quieter and more subtle canter aid. Go, me!
A lot less sweaty after this ride!
I am really looking forward to tomorrow's lesson. Izzy gets today off, but I am eager to see how Chemaine will build on her Facebook suggestion. I am certain she'll help refine my aid which should encourage Izzy to feel more confident in the canter transition.
Aww, go Izzy! And yay for lessons! I love lesson sooo much... I'd take one every day if I could.
I was having a similar issue when my daughter (16yrs. old) suggested I was asking too aggressively. Darned if she wasn't right!
Interesting. I think I might be having a similar issue with Kachina.
With a horse who's green to the canter, it seems like making the aid obvious is helpful. Of course that aid must become quieter at some point, but I don't know when that point is. It seems like Izzy found a very obvious way to tell you that he was ready for a change.
Hope you have a good lesson!
Exactly - you have to be clear, but you're right. Eventually "clear" needs to become subtle. I'm really looking forward to hearing what Chemaine thinks.
That is great. I love the idea of virtual lessons! Carmen gets upset if I ask too strongly too.

A Linguistic Look at the World's Most Prolific Liar
November 14, 2018 — Andy Curtis
Dr Andy Curtis, former President of the TESOL International Association, unpicks the linguistic quirks of what he describes as "the most famous liar in the world today, the 45th President of the United States," Donald Trump.
Not only is the 45th President of the USA the most famous liar in the world today, he is also, by far, the most prolific among world leaders. In November 2017, the New York Times listed well over 150 lies told by President Trump since he had taken office, in January 2017. In those days, that seemed like a lot, and each of those lies was meticulously documented and fact-checked using multiple sources, including Politifact, Factcheck.org, The Washington Post Fact Checker, and the Toronto Star. However, the presidential lying has grown exponentially this year. As Professor Paul Street wrote in October 2018, in an article titled, Trump's Endless Mendacity and the Dawn of American Fascism: "The president lies as freely as he breathes."
By May 2018, more than "3,000 untrue or misleading statements in 466 days in office" had been counted, which is the equivalent of six to seven such statements every single day. The Toronto Star also reported a figure of "3084 false things Donald Trump has said as U.S. president" between January 20, 2017 and October 23, 2018. By then, the President had made so many false statements that the Toronto Star organized them alphabetically into well over one hundred categories from "Afghanistan", "Barack Obama" and "Brent Kavanagh" to "Vladimir Putin" and "Xi Jinping". According to Daniel Dale, the Washington Bureau Chief for the Toronto Star: "Historians say there has never been such a constant liar in the Oval Office." By the end of October 2018, The Washington Post Fact Checker had logged the record-breaking number of "4,229 false or misleading claims in 558 days," which constituted an increase of nearly 980 such claims in just two months, and an overall average of seven to eight such claims every single day. But earlier the President had averaged up to 16 such claims a day, in July and August of 2018. And if those numbers are not large enough, by early November 2018 Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large, was reporting that: "Trump is averaging 30 false or misleading claims a day in the last seven weeks … On October 22, when he traveled to Houston to hold a rally for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R), Trump said 83 untrue things in a single day" [emphasis added]. Cillizza continued: "In the 649 days between his inauguration and October 30, Trump has made 6,420 claims that are partially or entirely false." Such numbers should shock any intelligent person.
"Failing is at the heart of trying. If anyone replies to any question about what they did or did not do by saying 'I tried', we all know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they failed."
Given the sheer number of lies told by the 45th President of the USA, it should be no surprise that he lies about lying. For example, he was asked by a reporter for the ABC news network: "And finally I remember well – you remember well in the campaign, you made a promise. You said, 'I will never lie to you.' Can you tell me now, honestly, have you kept that promise at all times? Have you always been truthful?" To that question, the President replied: "Well I try. I do try. I think you try too. You say things about me that aren't necessarily correct. I do try, and I always want to tell the truth. When I can, I tell the truth. And sometimes it turns out to be where something happens that's different or there's a change, but I always like to be truthful."
For the applied linguist and discourse analyst, an analysis of thousands of words could be written about those 61 words, said by one of the most powerful people on the planet. But – to make a very long story very much shorter – the use of "try" four times in the first 20 words or so, recalls what may be one of the most famous lines of the entire Star Wars franchise, when the 900-year-old master Yoda says: "Do. Or do not. There is no try." (from The Empire Strikes Back). Failing is at the heart of trying. If anyone replies to any question about what they did or did not do by saying "I tried", we all know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they failed. They do not need to say anything else, such as: "I tried, but … ." If they had succeeded, they would have said "I did" or "Yes", or anything other than "I tried".
The repeated use of "do", as in "I do try" puts the emphasis on the (failed) attempt, and distracts from the outcome, as does the use of "I think you try too. You say things about me that aren't necessarily correct." That is also an attempt at some kind of diffusion, the implication being: "We all try. We all lie. So, no big deal." A nice touch is the reference to things that "aren't necessarily correct", which is an attempt to portray his lies as "mistakes" or "errors" of the kind that anyone could make. However, the President of the USA is not just anyone, and these are not "mistakes" or "errors", as the repeated use of words like "invasion" are deliberate. These lies are not what the President's Neo-Nazi supporters might call "little white lies." The lies of this president are endless, brazen and carefully calculated to do as much damage as possible to the processes of Democracy.
"What Peace Linguistics can do is to make us more sensitive to the ways in which some of the most powerful people in the world use language to manipulate people, spreading fear and hate, based on myriad lies."
OK, but what, if anything, can Linguistics do about this kind of problem? Although President Trump has shown that nobody – family, friends, colleagues – and nothing – the truth, facts, evidence – can stop him, Peace Linguistics (PL), which is an area within Applied Linguistics, can at least help us understand what is happening. Although PL has, in some ways, been around for a long time, it is still relatively unknown, even within the field of Linguistics. For example, the first PL course was not taught until 2017, the first PL special issue of an academic journal will not be published until later in 2018, and the first book on PL will not appear until the Summer of 2019 (to be published by the University of Michigan Press).
In that book, I define PL as: an area of Applied Linguistics, based on systematic analyses of the ways in which language is used to communicate and create conflict, and to communicate and create peace. Peace Linguistics is interdisciplinary, drawing on fields such as Peace Studies and Conflict Transformation, bringing those together with fields such as Sociolinguistics and Critical Discourse Analysis. What PL can do is to make us more sensitive to the ways in which some of the most powerful people in the world use language to manipulate people, spreading fear and hate, based on myriad lies.
The linguistically fascinating thing for researchers like me, who are obsessed with language, is its uses and abuses, and one of the ways in which the new Peace Linguistics is different from previous versions of PL, and from other areas of linguistics, is that PL goes deep. Take for example the single word "invasion", which is the word President Trump used many times in the run-up to the mid-term elections in the USA, to describe large groups of immigrants and asylum seekers from Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador heading towards the USA.
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary website, regarding people looking up the meaning of "invasion" in their M-W online dictionary: "Lookups spiked 1,200% on November 7, 2018," the day after the midterm elections in the USA. Much as I do like and make great use of online dictionaries, including M-W, the use of percentages like that can be misleading, and may even seem somewhat disingenuous, as a "spike" of 1,200% represents a 13-fold increase. Therefore, for example, if only two people looked up "invasion" in M-W online dictionary on November 6, then 26 people looked it up the next day, that would be 13-fold, 1,200% increase. So, not only do presidents lie, but so can numbers too. (And, of course, lying presidents can use misleading numbers to support their lies.)
Leaving aside the idea that there are "lies, damned lies, and statistics" (attributed to the 1800s British Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli, 1804–1881): What do you think of when you hear the word "invasion"? For me, because I do a lot of work on the relationships between film, language and culture, one of the first things that come to my mind is the 1956 sci-fi movie, Invasion of the Body Snatchers. In linguistics, we call this a "cognitive connotation", which is a fancy phrase referring to the thoughts and images that appear in your mind when you hear a certain word. Now, your cognitive connotations may not be as dramatic as mine, but whatever they are, they are powerful, and in the case of "invasion", they are entirely negative. According to etymologists, the word "invasion" comes originally from the Late Latin word "invasionem"; from there it made its way to Old French, and by the mid-fifteenth century "invasioun" meant: "an assault, attack, act of entering a country or territory as an enemy."
"The migrant caravan will not constitute an invasion, by any definition."
And if all that were not negative enough, in its extended sense, "invasion" can be used to mean: "of diseases, 'a harmful incursion of any kind;' with reference to rights, etc., 'infringement by intrusion, encroachment by entering into or taking away what belongs to another.'" One single word, with so many cognitive connotations – and every single one of them negative. This is what I meant when I wrote above that Peace Linguistics goes deep, in this case, showing how a single word said over and over again, in lie after lie – the migrant caravan will not constitute an invasion, by any definition – can be used to manipulate millions of people.
This is where it can get tricky – measuring the impact of these kinds of words used in these kinds of ways. Because we can not see into the minds of the many millions of American voters who went to the polls in the mid-term elections in the USA, we cannot know, with any provable degree of certainty, what thoughts and images appeared every time they heard their president say the word "invasion". But what we do know is this: as of November 8, 2018, of the more than 113 million Americans who voted in the mid-term elections, more than 46 million voted for Republicans, the political party of President Trump. That appears to indicate than tens of millions of Americans are OK with a leader of their country being someone who has told thousands upon thousands of documented lies since he took office, less than two years ago. The entire population of the country where I live, Canada, is nearly ten million people fewer than that, that is, 37 million, and if those 46 million people were a country, that would be one of the largest countries in the world, in the top 30 of nearly 200.
Of course, the argument can be made that not all 46 million people are OK with a president who lies publicly and shamelessly on a scale and with a frequency never before recorded. However, as Time magazine reported, the day after the midterm elections, "President Trump turned the midterms into a referendum on himself." Therefore, even if, by the most conservative estimate, "only" half of those 46 million are OK with the world's most publicly prolific – some have said "pathological" – liar, that would still be a deeply troubling population of more than 20 million American people. Worse still, they may not know or care or even be aware – due to low levels of education, limited capacities for critical thought, fear of "the other", and the accompanying racism, to name just a few possibilities – just how much they are being manipulated by their leaders' language of lies, including words like "invasion".

Beginning January 1st, 2010, California state environmental regulations went into effect requiring all truck drivers to meet new truck engine standards. There was an intervention at the Port of Oakland by Mayor Dellums, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD), the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the Port to provide independent truck drivers with a little more time and funding to comply with the state regulations to clean up port trucks. These well-intentioned efforts demonstrate compassion for port truck drivers, as hundreds (if not a thousand) are likely to be out of work if they cannot afford to upgrade their trucks.
2008 will long be remembered as a year of change – a time of shifting political landscapes, economic uncertainty, and renewed hope in the power of community organizing. Here at the East Bay Alliance for a Sustainable Economy (EBASE), we have found ourselves even more deeply grounded in the struggle to make the economy work for working people and facing new challenges with passion and commitment.

Q: Source folders for a maven project in eclipse I have a that uses maven... and I want to put it in my working environment with eclipse(Galileo)... the project is in a svn server, and I can create check out the project and everything looks OK. I even can run the unit test and everything is working there.
However, now that everything is there I wanted to work in the code, and oh surprise there are no packages in my project... I mean all the source code is in the src folder and browsing through it i can see all my files, ut if I open the files from there, the files are opened as text files with no coloring, but worst no help at all about errors in compilation.
I don't know what im I doing wrong now, because I had the same project in other machine and it was working well.
So here is what I did, please let me know if you notice if I did something wrong, miss any steps or anything that can help me:

*

*In the SVN Repository (Using subclipse 1.6.10) I added my SVN Repository

*Browsed to the folder where I have the pom file

*Right Click> Check out as a Maven project...(Using m2eclipse 0.10.020100209)

*Used the default options and finish.

*The projects were created with no problem. I said projects because this maven project has modules, and each module became a project in eclipse.

*Back in the java perspective, Right click in the project, Run as > maven test(Using JWebUnitTest, because I am testing  a servlet)

*BUILD SUCCESS!!

But as I said there is not packages so I can't really develop in this environment.
Any help??
Thanks!

A: When performing a svn checkout as maven project, m2eclipse writes what it does in a console window, accessible using the "console" panel, where there is a drop-down list of all available consoles. What does this console tells ?
Besides, if you can perform a maven test, you can also, in the maven menu (of your contextual menu) do a "update project configuration" which should do the same thing and configure eclipse for your project.
As a last test, is there a maven icon over your project ?

A: Have you tested your setup on command line with Maven ? Does a mvn package work without errors ? The location for the sources in Maven is src/main/java + Package name. Have you opened the project as a Maven project?

A: Thanks for your help, however I noticed that eclipse itself was behaving weird when I try to create a package there and I didn't have the option.
So I found out that for some reason that eclipse installation wasn't giving me any of the Java basic options.
So I download a new eclipse installation.. and I repeat the whole process and now is working...
No clue what was the problem with this eclipse because I was using it for other projects and I don't know when I lost the basic functionalities!
Thanks anyway!


As concerned as departing leaders generally are about their legacy, quite a few are hesitant or simply unwilling to undertake the effort required to articulate and formulize what their legacy is about. For some, their involvement in day-to-day affairs – until the last day – precludes them from doing any of the kind of reflective work necessary to capture their legacy in writing; for others, their sense of practicality recoils undertaking a structured legacy exercise. If only they work hard enough and forcefully instill their sense of values, so they reason, their legacy will live.
The reality is that stories and examples do live on, but policies and norms have a shorter half-life. Once the leader moves on, he or she will continue to be referred to, but without a formal statement, signed and blessed by the family or the founder, successors are likely to disagree on significant points of both content and process and may even come into conflict. If the original leader is still around to be consulted, he or she may be called upon to take sides; if not and sometimes even if so, disagreements of this kind can lead to governance challenges and major disruptions in the life of the organization.
For these reasons and even if they know that the so-called "hand from the grave" can undermine the functioning of the organization and limit its adaptability, many people at the top of family and founder-led businesses choose to formalize their legacy in the shape of mission and vision statements, sometimes also complemented by value statements. Formalizations like these are supposed to prevent conflict for generations to come. The irony, of course, is that in preventing conflict, they may also get in the way of necessary change.

There was no immediate indication on how the situation will turn out for the tenants. It is believed that the Beech V35 single-engine plane went down in a region approximately 35 miles south-southwest of the city of Lexington, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
However, the FAA did not identify the two people who were killed in the incident or provide any other information about it in a statement issued minutes after 5 pm on Friday.
Kentucky State Police did not immediately respond requesting more information about the investigation.

When I began homeschooling my boys, I was too confoundedly independent to join a charter school but too untested to chose my own books. I began with Sonlight Curriculum, a literature based learning. Boxes and boxes of beautiful books have graced our doorstep at the beginning of every school year. As a result, I learned volumes about children's literature (pun intended). I learned about authors I have loved and those I loved not. I gained confidence and taste in wonderful kid's literature. This year, I am stepping out of my comfort zone and buying my own books for our studies. I am still a huge supporter for Sonlight, they gave me a crash course on great books. But I know a thing or two now. And I have my favorite sources.
Her family takes on a Serendipitous style of homeschooling and I adore the artful, magical dynamic that she and her husband have created for her family. They are both so much more knowledgeable about children's books than I and their library makes me drool. Her blog is also a great place to get some Five in a Row inspiration.
Favorite source number two: Sarah Mackenzie's podcast The Read Aloud Revival.
I know that the best of children's literature are those which have been crafted by people who respect the minds and hearts of the children who will read their work. David Macaulay is like that. He writes about things which he previously had little knowledge of. He finds a topic interesting and immerses himself in it till he crafts a gorgeous, fascinating book. Cue Pyramid. We are studying ancient empires right now and his book is way too exhaustive for me to sit and read cover to cover to the kids. We use it more as a reference book. The in-depth illustrations of the secret passages, complex architecture and detailed descriptions of tools used to create these massive structures brings the ancients to present day.
Speaking of Sarah Mackenzie, she has a special podcast featuring many of my favorite authors but I really loved hearing from Macaulay, himself. It's totally worth a listen. Click here for a link to the podcast episode.

A pediatric urologist's journey in medicine
By Sheann Brandon - March 31, 2021
Dr. David Chamberlin, who has worked as a pediatric urologist at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital since 2008, was joined by his son, Dr. Joshua Chamberlin, in 2019.
If one were to go into the office of the chief of pediatric urology at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital, they would see a photo of Jesus standing behind a surgeon in the operating room, guiding his hands. David Chamberlin, MD, MS, FAAP, FACS, says this photo that was given to him when he first began at Children's Hospital is representative of his journey in medicine.
Chamberlin grew up in southern California, married his high school sweetheart, graduated with a master's in chemistry from BYU and his MD from UCI School of Medicine and completed residency at UCI Medical Center. During his first year of practice, Chamberlin was invited to be a part of a medical mission trip to Damascus, Syria. Unbeknownst to him, his role during the trip would be to conduct several complicated pediatric urologic surgeries.
"I prayed for guidance on that first day, and Jesus led me," Chamberlin says. "That experience was a week of miracles. I was simply holding the instruments, hands being guided, and doing things I'd never done or seen before."
That trip was one of Chamberlin's first ties to Loma Linda University Health after meeting and befriending Anees Razzouk, MD, chief of cardiothoracic surgery at Loma Linda University Health. In 2008, after careful prayer and consideration, Chamberlin accepted the offer to head pediatric urology at Children's Hospital.
Since then, he has helped the division grow to four pediatric urologists and four nurse practitioners, caring for patients throughout all the Inland Empire and the region. Additionally, his team conducts many telemedicine visits, with approximately seven million patients funneling to the Medical Center and Children's Hospital from the Inland Empire.
Chamberlin helps to oversee and facilitate his team's care of the full range of pediatric urologic conditions and anomalies, with minimally invasive techniques including the robot, treating various conditions such as hypospadias, undescended testis, inguinal hernia, circumcision, vesicoureteral reflux, urinary tract obstructions, urinary tract infections, voiding dysfunction and much more.
"In all areas of pediatrics, we try to lose the tie and the white coat and meet kids on their own level," Chamberlin says. "Our patients do really well — one of the blessings of operating on kids is they're so resilient and positive."
Chamberlin says he has relished the opportunity to work for a faith-based institution. "Just like the 'Good Samaritan' statue that sits outside the medical school, Christ's parable speaks to me to 'go and do thou likewise,'" he says. "That's what sets this place apart for me — that Christ-centered focus to make man whole. I love that."
One of the highlights of his career has been working with his son — Joshua Chamberlin, MD, who started medical school at Loma Linda University the same year Chamberlin began working for the organization. Joshua Chamberlin joined his father as a pediatric urologist for Children's Hospital in 2019.
"Just the other day, we operated on a patient, and my son was assisting me," Chamberlin says. "It was just such a career highlight for me. Here I am, 61 years old, working together with my son."
Chamberlin says his time at Children's Hospital has allowed him to continue his medical journey while enjoying time with his family — his wife of 40 years, six kids and sixteen grandkids.
"I look back on my career, and I see this pathway where Jesus has led me," he says. "I am so grateful for my family, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to work at an institution where I get to be a disciple of Christ and become more like Him."

Sunday's Derby: How Superior Manchester City Got The Best Of Manchester United
by Ace Damon November 12, 2018
written by Ace Damon November 12, 2018
There was once a time when Manchester United supporters would scoff at the very notion that Manchester City could become their equals, let alone outclass them.
But that's precisely what happened in Sunday's derby at the Etihad Stadium, where the 3-1 scoreline really didn't go far enough in reflecting City's dominance.
It was a match bookended by two moments that underlined just how wide the gap in quality between City and United has become in the last couple of years.
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City comfortably got the better of Jose Mourinho's Man United
City is powering along at the top of the Premier League table while United languish eighth The opening 12 minutes, prior to David Silva's opening goal, saw City enjoy 91 percent possession and United attempt just 11 passes, of which only five were successful.
And then there was Ilkay Gundogan's 86th-minute clincher, the culmination of a superb 44-pass move that involved all 10 outfield players. Even if Anthony Martial's penalty offered some hope for United, they were never deserving of anything out of the game, as City moved 12 points ahead of them in the Premier League table.
The city is unquestionably superior to United in every department from back to front at the moment and we take a closer look at that gulf in class here.
How Manchester City put together a 44-pass move for Ilkay Gundogan's clinching goal
There were plenty of negatives for the dejected United players to mull over post-match: It wasn't as though City were leaky defensively as they romped to the title last season – after all, they conceded just 27 goals, the lowest tally in the Premier League.
[amazon_link asins='B00YHJ8V4M,B07D6SMTRX,B018SN0NKC' template='ProductCarousel' store='lmtorres-20′ marketplace='US' link_id='101f56cb-e688-11e8-8506-19b41ad7a489′]
But Guardiola has managed to make them even more resolute this time around, with just five goals let in so far and seven clean sheets in their opening 12 matches. Both those figures are identical to Liverpool, where Jurgen Klopp has overseen a similar mission to add solidity at the back.
John Stones and Aymeric Laporte are beginning to look like a central defensive partnership that will serve City for the next five years and upon that rock can be based on City's glorious attacking play.
Aymeric Laporte salutes the Man City fans after their third goal at the Etihad Stadium
John Stones brings the ball out of defense under pressure from United's Jesse Lingard. There have been wisecracks about how City's expenditure on defense was greater than that of 52 countries, but they're certainly feeling the benefit of the investment.
Last season, United came back from two goals down to win 3-2 in this same fixture, exploiting a shaky City back line that cracked under pressure. There was absolutely no chance of that on Sunday, even after Martial had halved the deficit, with Stones and Laporte imperious, and Kyle Walker and Benjamin Mendy performing with good discipline on the flanks.
Amid all the mesmerizing football his team's play, it is very easy to overlook the fact that Guardiola knows how to organize a defense.
There's nothing gung-ho about their manner of playing. In eight of his nine seasons in management, Guardiola's team has had the best defensive record in the division. It looks likely to happen again this season.
Benjamin Mendy celebrates following a win that put City 12 points ahead of their rivalsUnited: For a manager who prides himself on having the toughest defense, Jose Mourinho has really taken his eye off the ball this season – though it isn't entirely his fault.
The United manager made very public appeals for investment in his back line over the summer, with Leicester City and England centre-half Harry Maguire the prime target, but wasn't granted the funds.
That is now beginning to look like a mistake. It wasn't too long ago that Mourinho could come away to a team like City and United could bore their way through to a goalless draw.
Now, their back line simply doesn't inspire confidence. The fact they sit eighth in the Premier League table with a negative goal difference tells you everything you need to know. United conceded just one more goal than City last season (28), but they have already let in 21 this season after 12 games. They've also kept just one clean sheet – only rock-bottom Fulham have kept fewer.

Victor Lindelof's slide challenge is in vain as Sergio Aguero rifles home City's second goal
Chris Smalling grabs hold of Sergio Aguero as the United defender tries to thwart an attack. Is the first time in 41 years that United have had a negative goal difference after a dozen games. It's plainly obvious that Mourinho doesn't trust any of his central defenders.
He has chopped and changed his pairing all season because none of Victor Lindelof, Chris Smalling, Eric Bailly or Phil Jones offer assurances, while Marcos Rojo has been out injured.
If there was one thing you could guarantee about a Mourinho team, it was a rock-solid back four, but that reliability has been consigned to the past.
United was dragged out of position time after time by City, with Lindelof allowing Sergio Aguero to get goal-side of him for City's second goal. Luke Shaw has improved this season, a rare positive for United, but it's increasingly apparent by the week that United may have to spend big on defensive reinforcements in January's transfer window to rescue their season.
Ilkay Gundogan is left completely unmarked to round off a sweeping 44-pass move: You only have to look at the possession stats and the way City toyed with United for their third goal – passing the ball around in a blur of purpose and intent – to see the gap in quality.
Indeed, it must be demoralizing the rest of the Premier League that City is playing to such high standards despite their best player, Kevin De Bruyne, being sidelined through injury.
In his absence, David Silva and Bernardo Silva have filled the creative void, while Fernandinho is among the best in the division when it comes to disrupting the opposition. The Silvas were especially excellent on Sunday, rising to the occasion in a way that United's midfielders simply did not.
Fernandinho gets stuck into Marouane Fellaini during Sunday's derby at the Etihad Stadium. As well as maintaining a metronomic passing tempo, there are contributions in terms of goals and assists all the time from everyone.
David Silva has seven goals and three assists, while even Fernandinho has scored once and set up two goals during the course of the season. When De Bruyne returns, the team will have yet more gears to run through and with the likes of Fabian Delph, Ilkay Gundogan and Phil Foden warming the bench at the moment, they have superb strength in depth in this area.
The fact City average 688.75 passes per game at an accuracy of 89 per cent really tells you everything you need to know. Only Chelsea pass with greater regularity and accuracy. United: Mourinho went with three of his chief disruptors in Marouane Fellaini, Nemanja Matic and Ander Herrera on Sunday and neither covered themselves in glory.
Herrera was continuously caught in possession, Fellaini couldn't offer a bridge between defence and attack, while Matic was at fault for the third goal after failing to pick Gundogan up. They were chasing shadows at times and missed the dynamism that Paul Pogba, deemed by Mourinho as not fit enough to complete 90 minutes, can offer.
Nemanja Matic tries and fails to dispossess Raheem Sterling during a performance to forget.
The feud between Mourinho and Pogba has dominated the start of United's season and, while he continues to inspire and infuriate in equal measure, he does offer United a spark. He was the man who inspired United's unlikely comeback at the Etihad Stadium last season so not even to have him on the bench suggested he does have an injury.
Without him, United lacked the necessary invention to convert their rare spells of possession into something meaningful. The Frenchman has been some way off his best this season, but nonetheless has five goals and four assists, while United's other midfielder barely register.
Ander Herrera tries to play catch up to Leroy Sane during the second half of the match. United are only sixth best in the Premier League passing charts and none of their players feature highly in the passing or assist charts for the Premier League.
So City happily skirted around a United midfield set up to contain and, after conceding early, they weren't the right players to offer any creativity either. By contrast, City seem to have both bases amply covered.
[amazon_link asins='B07C5HH17G,B07HD2X91Q,B074BWGRKH' template='ProductCarousel' store='lmtorres-20′ marketplace='US' link_id='670e4838-e688-11e8-86bc-37dc74f33aff']
It doesn't take a genius to work out that City's forward line is functioning at a far higher level that United's.
Guardiola's team have scored 36 times in the Premier League – nine more than next highest Chelsea – and have a goal different of +31, head and shoulders above everyone else. The City has also scored 12 goals in the Champions League and five in the EFL Cup. Across all competitions, they have averaged just under three goals a game.
Sergio Aguero celebrates in front of delighted City fans after doubling their leadThey swat lesser teams aside in the same way Sir Alex Ferguson's United used to – 6-1 vs Huddersfield Town, 5-0 vs Cardiff City, 5-0 vs Burnley, 6-1 vs Southampton and 6-0 vs Shakhtar Donetsk.
It's rare that City make heavy weather of those kind of matches and the spread of goals throughout the team is highly impressive. Sergio Aguero has top scored this season with 11, while David Silva and Raheem Sterling have seven apiece. Riyad Mahrez has weighed in with six, while Gabriel Jesus and Bernardo Silva have five apiece.
As the 44-pass move to round off Sunday's win showed, they're not only scoring for fun, but scoring goals of incredible style as well.
Guardiola has created a well-oiled attacking machine and it seems to be getting better and better with every passing week.
Riyad Mahrez gets the better of Nemanja Matic during a City move in Sunday's fixture: By contrast, United's forward line appears to have malfunctioned. Just 20 goals scored in the league and seven in other competitions. Their main striker, Romelu Lukaku has just four for the season (he had 11 at this point last season), hasn't scored since September 15 and wasn't deemed in form enough to start against City.
The fact he won a penalty just seconds after coming off the bench underlined that Lukaku remains vital to United's cause but the Belgian's goal drought suggests he is severely lacking in confidence.
Only the goals of Anthony Martial have given United's recent results a veneer of respectibility, with Marcus Rashford and Alexis Sanchez also struggling for form. Jesse Lingard is looking to find his best again after injury.
It adds up to a sorry picture in a United side that is weighted towards attack, with great sums spent on transfer fees and wages over the past few years. At the moment, Martial looks like the only one capable of finding the net so it isn't any wonder the goalscoring stats are down. Combine that with a leaky defence and a general lack of form and confidence and United face an uphill struggle to even finish in the top four this season, let alone challenge for honours.
Anthony Martial, who converted the penalty, is the only United forward currently in good form!

After a fair amount of googling I cant find a reason why this should not be working.
Does CreateRemoteThread not work under Windows 7 ?
If it does, have I made any obvious mistakes ?

A: Immediate problems I see are that you are not getting the access token which should be done as so:
HANDLE hToken;
TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tp;
HANDLE hProcess = OpenProcess( PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS, FALSE, GetCurrentProcessId() );

tp.PrivilegeCount = 1;
LookupPrivilegeValue( NULL, _T("SeDebugPrivilege"), &tp.Privileges[0].Luid );
tp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
OpenProcessToken( hProcess, TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES, &hToken );

AdjustTokenPrivileges( hToken, FALSE, &tp, NULL, NULL, NULL );
CloseHandle( hToken );

I don't have time to look through all your code right now, but here is something I ripped out of one of my previous projects:
// returns open process handle
HANDLE InjectDLL( DWORD dwPID, LPCWSTR szDLLPath, HMODULE* lphInjected ) {
  int     cszDLL;
  LPVOID  lpAddress;
  HMODULE hMod;
  HANDLE  hThread;
  HANDLE  hProcess = OpenProcess( PROCESS_CREATE_THREAD |
      PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION | PROCESS_VM_OPERATION |
      PROCESS_VM_WRITE | PROCESS_VM_READ, FALSE, dwPID );

  if( hProcess == NULL ) {
    return NULL;
  }

  cszDLL = ( wcslen( szDLLPath ) + 1 ) * sizeof( WCHAR );

  // Injection
  lpAddress = VirtualAllocEx( hProcess, NULL, cszDLL, MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE );
  if( lpAddress == NULL ) {
    return NULL;
  }

  WriteProcessMemory( hProcess, lpAddress, szDLLPath, cszDLL, NULL );

  hMod = GetModuleHandle( L"kernel32.dll" );
  if( hMod == NULL ) {
    return NULL;
  }

  hThread = CreateRemoteThread( hProcess, NULL, 0,
        (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)( GetProcAddress( hMod,
        "LoadLibraryW" ) ), lpAddress, 0, NULL );

  // Locate address our payload was loaded
  if( hThread != 0 ) {
    WaitForSingleObject( hThread, INFINITE );
    GetExitCodeThread( hThread, ( LPDWORD )lphInjected );
    VirtualFreeEx( hProcess, lpAddress, 0, MEM_RELEASE );
    CloseHandle( hThread );
  }

  return hThread != 0 ? hProcess : NULL;
}

See if it helps. Will look again later.

A: OK, your code is likely to fail in windows 7 and Vista because of "Protected processes", that is, processes which only can be manipulated by other Protected Processes, like explorer.exe, etc... In Windows 7 x32 there is a way: since you are able to load unsigned drivers,... well, you are done (search for Alex Ionescu in google). In Windows 7 x64, though, you can't (duh!)

"The fourth parameter of the CreateRemoteThread() is an address. In your case it is the LoadLibraryA address. However, in windows 7, Kernel32.dll/LoadLibraryA base address will various in different process;"

Well, that's not remotely true, because DLLs are shared at the same addresses in every process, despite ASLR. DLLs can be rebased, though, but you can call GetProcAddress before calling CreateRemoteThread, so it is very unlikely that the DLL will get rebased meanwhile.

A: The reason it fails is because your code is 32-bit and your target process is 64-bit.
It doesn't matter how many privileges you own. Windows won't let that happen.
I had the same problem. Either you spawn a system 32-bit exe and inject that or port your code to 64-bit (which means it won't work on 32-bit systems).
EDIT
A long time ago, I found a nice way of injecting code into and from any processor mode-target. It involves dynamically switching the processor mode to that of (any)the target. Dubbed "heaven's gate". To do this you have to use inline assembly. So basically, you can have both 64-bit and 32-bit code in a 32-bit exe, detect if the machine is 64-bit, then jump into 64-bit mode and run the 64-bit code. You'd then walk the imports to find ntdll and load 64-bit kernel.dll and other libraries.
Link:  https://www.google.com/search?q=heaven's+gate+windows

A: I think CreateRemoteThread() dll injection method can not work in windows 7.
The fourth parameter of the CreateRemoteThread() is an address. In your case it is the LoadLibraryA address. However, in windows 7, Kernel32.dll/LoadLibraryA base address will various in different process; Therefore, the CreateRemoteThread() will not work since the address is not what u expected. This is my own opinion, hope it will help. :)

A: CreateRemoteThread function does not work in Win Vista/7. You have to use NTCreateThread function,which is undocumented, for that.

A: TLDR : your code is okey , change the Visual Studio debug/compile target to x64.
I've faced the same problem before, your code is Okey, The problem is , the Visual Studio(or any sane person) execute its programs in x86 mode (32bit) by default, because it would be nice to compile your program in a way that runs in both x86 or x64 architecture but not in the process injection scenario! because of its system calls.
In the code injection case, you should change the build and debug setting of the VS to compile/debug for x64 processor in properties of your project in the project explorer,
or if you cross compiling your program, you should use x64 compiler.
If you are looking for global process injection method, there was a method called Heaven's Gate or The 0x33 Segment Selector, which was used in Vawtrak banking malware.
You could see this link about Heaven's Gate method, which says:

In other words,  it gives one the ability to create "naked" 64-bit
  code, which will be able to run covertly, including issuing system
  calls, without the majority of products able to intercept and/or
  introspect its execution

Penultimate is a note taking app that allows you to write notes out by hand on your iPad.
The app allows you to write in various colors, in different pen sizes, and even let's you import photos into your notes (via the iPad's Camera or Photo Library). You can erase notes using the "eraser" function, or move parts of your notes around using the "cut" function. Also, there's a great, built-in "undo/redo" feature.
Penultimate allows you to save your notes into various Notebooks, and even allows you to export them to Dropbox or Evernote (the app is part of the Evernote family). Having various notebooks makes it very easy to sort your thoughts.
There are different types of "paper" you can write on, and you can download different "paper" packs (e.g. task list and calendars) for a minimal fee.
Penultimate's best feature is probably its ease-of-use. It takes two seconds to understand how the app works and start taking notes.
Where does the app fall short?
Note taking apps just aren't there yet in terms of producing clean, handwritten notes. Even with a stylus, my writting on Penultimate often looks like that of a five year old. I'd really love to see some advancements in this technology (and I know there have been some) or even an app that turns handwritten notes to text.
How is it useful for #physed?
I find myself using Penultimate almost every time I teach #physed. Be it for drawing a quick diagram for a game, to annotate a picture I took or students working, or to check for student understanding, Penultimate has been a great tool.
I've also used the app in a grade one nutrition project where I had students draw their lunches and see how many colors were represented (the goal was to have a rainbow on your plate each time you sat down to eat).
Penultimate has been a great tool to have while teaching, and one of the few that has kept its place on my homescreen for such a long period of time. Its intuitive interface makes it a breeze to use for both teachers and students.

The Last of the Nuba is the English-language title of German film director Leni Riefenstahl's 1973 Die Nuba, a book of photographs, published a year later in the United States. It was an international bestseller and was followed up by the 1976 book Die Nuba von Kau. It was the subject of a famous critique by Susan Sontag in claiming that it adhered to a "fascist aesthetic".

Overview
Between 1962 and 1977, Riefenstahl had been photographing people of different Nuba ethnic groups in the southern part of Sudan on several visits. She was the first white female photographer who had obtained a special permission by the Sudanese government to do her research in the remote Nuba mountains of Sudan. She observed the Nuba's way of life and recorded it on film and in pictures. For some of her photographs and film scenes, she relied on Sudanese cameraman Gadalla Gubara, who accompanied her to the Nuba mountains.

Together with George Rodger's earlier photo essay on the Nuba and Latuka tribes, published in 1951 in National Geographic magazine, Riefenstahl's photographic documents are of anthropological, ethnological, and cultural-historical importance in relation to traditional life in the Nuba mountains of these times.

Reception
In her native Germany, the Art Director's Club of Germany awarded Riefenstahl a gold medal for the best photographic achievement of 1975.

Shortly after its 1974 release in America, the critic Susan Sontag scrutinized the "fascist aesthetics" of the works in her essay "Fascinating Fascism". Writing in the New York Review of Books in 1975, she stated: "The fascist dramaturgy centers on the orgiastic transactions between mighty forces and their puppets".  She continued "Its choreography alternates between ceaseless motion and a congealed, static, 'virile' posing. Sontag wrote that the collection was the "final, necessary step in Riefenstahl's rehabilitation. It is the final rewrite of the past; or, for her partisans, the definitive confirmation that she was always a beauty-freak rather than a horrid propagandist."

In December 1974, American writer and photographer Eudora Welty reviewed the book positively for the New York Times, giving a personal account of the aesthetics of Riefenstahl's book:

Academic studies, giving critical appraisals of Riefenstahl's books on the Nuba people, have been published by Alexandra Ludewig of the University of Western Australia and by anthropologist James C. Faris of the University of Connecticut. In his biography on Riefenstahl, the German media critic Rainer Rother gives a detailed account of her repeated visits to the Nuba people, comparing her approach to taking the photographs that seem to have started with a personal fascination of an African world, "unspoilt by civilization", up to her later carefully planned photo expeditions in order to further her fame as a photographer.

Another examination of both Riefenstahl's books and of James C. Faris's criticism was undertaken as a comment on a television film, called The Nuba from the BBC "Worlds Apart" ethnographic series. Here, the author John Ryle describes both the approach of the German photographer and of the anthropologist, trying to do justice to both. Also, he questions the attitude and moral judgements of the admirers of such "exotic pictures from Africa".
