All's Fair
Story by Lehia Apana
Ask any kamaʻāina for a favorite Maui County Fair memory, and the reaction is always a smile. Behind every nostalgic gaze is a thread that traces Maui's past, from tales of spirited soapbox derbies and high-stakes horse races, to politically incorrect sideshows complete with six-legged cows and bearded ladies.
For lifelong Wailuku resident Aichi Irie, the fair was the social event of the year. The eighty-seven-year-old remembers when families from across the island—and groups by the boatload from Oʻahu—would converge on the twenty-five-acre plot known as the Old Kahului Fairgrounds on Puʻunēnē Avenue. (The fair relocated to its present home at War Memorial Complex in 1989.)
Irie's father earned ninety cents a day as a janitor for Wailuku Sugar Company. He would give each of his seven kids fifty cents to spend at the fair.
"Dat was big bucks back den," Irie recalls. "But da fair was special times, so our parents sympathized wit' us."
Even during hard times, attending the fair was a priority for nearly every family, no matter how poor. Irie recalls two Hawaiian brothers who bought a "stick candy" after finding a penny on the ground. The pair took turns licking the sweet morsel until it was gone.
"And den, if one was holding on to da candy too long, the braddah would nudge da other one, ʻEh, you buggah, my turn,'" Irie laughs.
Maui's inaugural fair was held in 1916 at what is now Wells Park in Wailuku, and enchanted onlookers with its star attraction: an elephant named Daisy. Except for wartime interruptions in 1917 and 1918, and 1942 to 1946, the fair has kicked off every year around October.
Instead of modern-day staples like the Ferris wheel and healthy-baby contests, fairs of yesteryear often revolved around sporting events. High school football games between rivals Lahainaluna and Baldwin would fill the stands, while it's said that in the early 1940s, more than 5,000 people watched two infantry troops stage a dramatic sham battle.
Across its many incarnations, the fair has always been about fostering a sense of community. Old friends reunite under the glow of carnival rides, families create memories, and strangers bond through unexpected circumstances. Maui Fair Board President Avery Chumbley, who has been involved with the event since the mid-1980s, remembers such an instance: "One year, this guy who had been planning to propose to his girlfriend on the Ferris wheel came up to the fair trailer in a panic because he lost the ring on one of the rides."
That prompted Chumbley and other fair officials to comb the grounds for the tiny treasure. They finally found the ring and returned it to the teary-eyed man. So, did she say "Yes"?
"Hmm," Chumbley pauses. "You know, I never found out."
Make your own memories when the 2013 Maui Fair rolls into town, Thursday through Sunday, October 3 through 6, at the War Memorial Complex in Wailuku. For information on times, tickets and more, visit www.mauifair.com

Spain's election board has banned the far-right Vox party from participating in the only confirmed TV debate for the 28 April election.
The controversial, anti-immigration party achieved a surprise victory in recent regional elections.
Spain's Atresmedia network chose it to join the four major national parties for a debate on 23 April.
However, the electoral commission ruled that Vox's inclusion would be a violation of electoral law.
The network said it would respect the ruling but stood by its decision to include Vox in the debate.
"Atresmedia maintains that a debate between five candidates is of the greatest journalistic value and most relevance for voters," the network said in a statement after the ruling.
Spain's current Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, had agreed to take part in the private network's five-party debate - including Vox - rather than the four-party option proposed by a public broadcaster.
However, the electoral commission ruled that Vox's inclusion was not "proportional" under its electoral rules, since it does not hold any seats in the national parliament and attracted a very small percentage of the vote in the last general election.
Vox: Who are Spain's far-right party?
Vox's leader Santiago Abascal responded defiantly on Twitter.
"It's clear who calls the shots still in Spain: the separatists. Until April 28. Because a great victory for #LongLiveSpain will see those parties who wish to destroy our co-existence, constitution and homeland banned", he said.
Several smaller parties had asked to be included in the debate, based on previous electoral performance.
The 28 April ballot is being billed as a battle between the established parties, Catalan and Basque nationalists, and Vox.
Founded in 2014, the party struggled to make an impact on Spain's political landscape until it took 12 parliamentary seats in Andalusia in December, beating expectations that it would win five.
Vox has been derided as far-right and populist, anti-immigrant and anti-Islam but its leader Santiago Abascal believes its recent surge of support is because it is "in step with what millions of Spaniards think".
Its leaders reject the far-right label, insisting it is a party of "extreme necessity" rather than extremism. Its overall support for Spain's membership of the EU, it says, differentiates it from many populist and far-right movements across Europe.
The party proposes to "make Spain great again" and critics have described its ideology as a nationalist throwback to the dictatorship of Francisco Franco.

HomeConcertsNCAA Block Party with Chainsmokers and Judah & the Lion Wows
NCAA Block Party with Chainsmokers and Judah & the Lion Wows
April 6, 2019 Andrew Dobin Concerts 0
March Madness in Minneapolis was where I found myself on Friday night. The crowds outside went for over 5 blocks, 7 easily I was told by friends, as people waited for their designated time to pick up tickets to the show. I was more than happy with the fact that I would be able to skirt this process and go directly into the venue at show time. But not to gloss over the point of the night's festivities let me give a very brief bio for those not aware of the Chainsmokers. They're a mega sensation electronic music duo from New York who has almost 5 tracks now on Spotify with over a billion plays. They've collaborated with names like Halsey and 5 Seconds of Summer. And arguably dominated college campuses for the last few years. Chances are you've heard them and at the time thought, I wonder who this is(that was me a few years back). Now take this artist and add on another rising hit band, Judah and the Lion, and you're going to have one heck of a show. I do apologize that I must at this time break the news we didn't have photo access to this event, March Madness gods be damned, so there is no visuals to accompany this piece. Now, to the main attraction.
Judah and the Lion, let me counts the ways. All I can say is I am admittedly a huge fan and this being the 4th time in just about 2 years I have seen them, they're killing it. And to be honest, I wasn't entirely sure what the aim was when I saw them paired with Chainsmokers initially. I'm not marketing genius, not by a long shot, but I think I figured it out once the night got rolling. If you group for this show was friends who LOVE Chainsmokers, and a couple people who were out because it was Friday, and one or two that were unsure but enjoy some fun music and the festivities, this show probably hit every check box for you. What Judah and the Lion with Chainsmokers is, is a huge dance party. Judah hit the stage with their trademark "hippie dances"(song reference) and all the folks I saw previously with their back to the stage quickly learned these guys weren't "just some opener". Songs like Take it All Back and Going to Mars were huge hits with the audience and from the balcony you saw people dancing from end to end at the Armory. What I left the show with in terms of feelings about Judah and the Lion remains ever true as the first time I saw them at a charity gig in the Varsity Theater. They're a group of goofy, happy, fun loving guys who are as much fun to listen to in your car singing along as they are live. There's no denying they love what they're doing and the music they're making. And even more, how much their fans love it.
With the dance party initiated by Judah and some foot stomping banjo jams it was time for the main act. This was quite a production so I wasn't sure how it would be accomplished so quickly with the setup each artist had. Somehow, in the frame of what I THINK was merely 15 minutes or so, they had the stage transitioned. Next, queue the epic introduction track, fire, smoke, and lights. Enter, The Chainsmokers. I'm going to sound like a grandpa when saying this but even for as much as I love some Chainsmokers songs I had every expectation of leaving this show with a vibe of "eh, heard that before. They're like every other DJ duo lately". I left instead with applause. Say what you will about electronic pop tracks of the last few years, but these guys are the real deal once you see them live.
I can genuinely say that for all the times I have seen a DJ or two on stage try to be energetic and entertaining. 90% of them end up doing the same thing as one another with one or both arms in the air and saying every few songs "everybody!" to provoke the crowd. Chainsmokers absolutely nailed it in the department and I think besides Big Wild has been one of my most favorite electronic shows in the last year. Andrew and Alex both have their own style and personal touch on stage play but they pull it off well. Dancing down the cat walk, singing with the crowd acapella, and overall energy were on point for this. And as much as I doubted, I see the appeal with Chainsmokers now. Songs you loved before, they're great, but hear these guys live and you'll find some new favorites. Pyrotechnics, dancing, singing, more dancing, all that and add the energy of March Madness this was one show I am damn happy to have seen as a fan and not behind my camera.
Come for the basketball, stay for the tunes. Whatever got you to the Armory I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did and can attempt to display in a thousand words. For those who didn't make it, yes the rumors are true and Chainsmokers are just that dang good live. So you SHOULD buy those tickets and plays those tracks(this article not sponsored by Chainsmokers promise).

South Park S13 Round Up
StevieD
The thirteenth season of South Park drew to a close last week on Comedy Central with an episode simply titled Pee. The world is flooded in typical armageddon style destruction by a giant wave of, err, pee. We see the Statue Of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower are destroyed (again), as is poor little Kenny.
Still probably the best show on television, the thirteenth run has been another good one. It opened with a brutal shot at Disney and the Jonas Brothers in The Ring. You instantly knew they'd lost none of their bite. And you may never look at Mickey Mouse in the same light again.
Funniest Gag Ever
Along the way they've taken swipes at Somalian Pirates (in Fatbeard), WWE (in W.T.F.), the Japanese (in Whale Whores). They targeted Hell's Angels when redefining the word fag in The F Word. Ike has seen a dead Michael Jackson, and Butters became a player and a pimp in Butter's Bottom Bitch. They gave us a new superhero in The Coon. Above all they told the funniest gag ever at the expense of Kanye West in Fishsticks. Even those little blue creatures, the Smurfs, suffered (violently) at the hands of the show.
Not content with that, the episode Margaritaville won the 2009 Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program. Margaritaville parodies the global banking collapse as Stan journeys to get the money back on a Margarita maker that his dad had purchased on credit. Kyle is shown as a Jesus-like saviour of the economy, which is now feared as an almost living entity that is angry with the population. It's a very intelligent look at the subject, as you've come to expect from South Park. Above all it deserves all the praise it has received.
A release date for season 13 on dvd seems a long way off (Amazon list it on Bluray for March next year). But you should find many chances to catch up with the episodes on Comedy Central over the coming weeks. Or you can find them on iTunes and other regular outlets.
Arrested Development Season 5 – False Hands, False Legs
US TV comedy Arrested Development, the story of the dysfunctional Bluth family, reached it's conclusion on Netflix just weeks ago. Did it go out in a blaze of glory? I'd have to say no. It limped towards the finishing line as if it had a false leg. Not the false hand belonging to one of the main the characters, Buster Bluth. The show's first three seasons on Fox received huge critical acclaim. However the shows's fourth and fifth series on Netflix have received lukewarm receptions from fans and tv critics alike. Early Days Arrested Development first aired on the Fox
Archer – The Secret (Agent) Is Out
It might be a 'mission impossible' to create a fresh, new animated comedy in the modern television world. However the creators of Archer have done just that. For those of you who are yet to discover FX Network's animated secret agent, Archer first hit American screens briefly in a pilot episode in late 2009, with a ten episode first series airing in January 2010. The show returned for an extended second season last month in the US. At the time of writing this I can't find any firm details as to when it'll show in the UK. I discovered the
Are You Friends With Kip Drordy Yet?
You'll probably soon know someone who is. South Park recently returned for a fourteenth season, and has already poked fun at Tiger Woods, Sarah Jessica Parker, and the book Catcher In The Rye. This week it finally set it's sight on social networking site Facebook in an episode called You Have 0 Friends. As the boys attempt to outdo each other, Kyle adds the lonely Kip Drordy to his Facebook friends. A person known to everyone on the site for having zero friends. As soon as he does this, everyone else starts to 'unfriend' Kyle at an alarming rate… It

And The New Prime Minister Is….
…Adam Boulton. If PM stood for 'Prize Muppet'. If you ask me. At 10.00 last Thursday, the election officially finished (unless you were locked in somewhere), and a month of strict broadcasting restrictions were finally lifted. For some, like Channel 4's Alternative Election Night, this meant the resumption of no holds barred piss-taking and satire, for others, like Adam Boulton, it meant dropping the thin veil of political impartiality which led to some heated, and hilarious exchanges live on air with Alastair Campbell that were quite unprofessional. With such an unusual result expected in this Election, I recorded Channel 4's
Heroes launched on NBC in 2006 and became an instant hit with viewers around the world. It told the story of regular people who suddenly and unexplainably manifested special powers. The show's large cast of characters found a connection to each other and a shared mission – to save the world. However after a successful first year it failed to build on that and viewing figures dropped for future seasons. Shortly after a fourth season aired, it was announced that the show had been cancelled. Five years later fans of the show got the good news that the show was

With around 30 million daily active players, with an average of over 65 million monthly active players, League of Legends is a widely popular multiplayer game. The intriguing gameplay and graphics allure thousands of new players from all over the globe every day as the game continues to grow in popularity and size. To overcome the tough competition, many smart players opt for elo boosting, increasing their chances to succeed. If you are unfamiliar with the concept of boosting the League of Legends, we have compiled everything there is to know about it herein.
What is Elo Boosting and why do players love it?
If you are familiar with the League of Legends gameplay, you must be aware of different terms such as smurfing and boosting. The game is played by rising through the ranks and levels to increase excitement and unlock new levels or features. With the help of a reliable and cheap elo boosting service, players can increase their rank by boosting it. It entails giving the boosting service provider access to their gaming account which they then use to provide the desired boosting service.
Why should you opt for El Boosting?
Like most games, League of Legends starts with the most basic levels which could take weeks or even months for new users to rise through the ranks and become a diamond or platinum league player. Through the help of a boosting service, you could get directly to the higher leagues within a day or two in exchange for a nominal fee. While one would argue that rising through the levels without relying on a cheap elo boosting allows the player to experience the complete game experience but it holds little merit.
Being in the league of legends, things don't get exciting enough unless you become an actual legend. Many people tend to lose interest in playing the lower ranks and end up quitting their journey through this enthralling game.
What are the benefits of Elo Boosting in League of Legends?
The greatest benefit of opting for a cheap elo boosting is saving time and energy. Risking through numerous ranks within the game is a tedious and time-consuming exercise. Especially for people in your team who are not acquainted with the technicalities, increasing the rank fast enough isn't possible. But with boosters, the rank can be increased far more quickly and effectively as compared to an average player.
Climbing up the ranks in a short period of time can help you earn the respect of your friends and teammates. Using elo boosting to expedite your journey through League of Legends is a great way to impress your friends. It also allows you to keep pace with your friends, rather than seeing them progress into the more competitive and exciting levels of the game while you are stuck at the initial, tedious levels.
The best part of getting a boosting service is that it is a reliable and secure way to attain a higher rank in the League of Legends game. In contrast with other ways to elevate your rank was to allow access to unknown players to your account details and password which posed privacy concerns. But with elo boosting service, you can get your League of Legends rank increased in a discreet and secure manner, without compromising your account details.
It does not have to cost a leg and an arm to increase your rank. With a reliable yet cheap elo boosting service, you rise through the league of legends ranks. The fees you pay for getting this service is extremely low when compared with the number of benefits you attain by swiftly rising through the ranks.


Print design in 1:1 size (actual size). Make letter pattern by cutting out each letter close to the inside line of satin stitching. (See Fig. 1). Iron on adhesive backing, such as Wonder Under or E-Film from Dalco Athletic. Use pattern on your fabric. Stitch outline stitch and stop machine. Use temporary adhesive spray on each letter before placing on garment prior to stitching.
After stitching applique, slit a tiny hole on the other side of the applique and stuff with fiber fill (cutting through backing and garment, not applique). Another way you can achieve this is to stop the machine just before the cover stitch in completed and stuff with fiber fill with the edge of a pencil and then start the machine to finish cover stitch.
Print the design actual size. Spray adhesive on the back of the printed design. Lay it on a piece of heavy cardstock (I recycle the cardstock found in shirts, and other items that is used as packaging from the store). Cut the design on the edge (in the middle of the satin edge stitch). Mark each template with "this side up" and the name of the design so that you cut on the right side. Trace the design with "this side up" on the wrong side of the fabric. These templates last a long time when they are cut from card stock rather than paper.

How To Hacker-Proof Your Business From Costly Attacks
Blog Home » Cyber Security » How To Hacker-Proof Your Business From Costly Attacks
Updated October 2019 from original post.
Protect Your Business From Cyber Criminals and Costly Cyber Threats
Cybercrime has increased year-over-year with a variety of cyberattacks hitting businesses every day. Hackers are working around the clock and although small businesses have become a growing target, hackers are really indiscriminate. They don't care if your company is large or small. If your company holds any sensitive information your business is a target.
Did you know, small businesses spend less than $1000 on cyber security per year.
Attacks come in from all vectors, such as email, web-based pathways and the human element. A cyberattack is defined as any attempt by hackers to gain illegal or unapproved access to a computer, network or system. Hackers see opportunity in each IP address. They are sneaky with a desire to wreak havoc on your business. Hackers are intentional with very clear objectives as they are looking to access your system, steal mission critical data or intellectual property, lock your files and hold them for ransom, or leak proprietary information to the public.
The impact of cybercrime on business, consumers and the economy is staggering.
Quickly find out how much a breach would cost your business using our breach cost calculator.
Let's look at the top five cyberattacks that businesses should be aware of.
Cyber Attack #1
Man-in-the-Middle (MitM), also known as eavesdropping, is when someone intercepts any information being sent in a two-party transaction such as from a computer to a server. One of the most common ways for a MitM attack to occur is over unsecured public WiFi. The attacker can hijack the session and insert themselves between an individual's device and the remote web-server. They can obtain confidential information such as passwords and credit card info as well as gain access to your system and applications.
Cybercrime Statistic: Only a third of organizations believe they have adequate resources to manage security effectively.
Security Tips: Install and use VPNs (virtual private network) on all work-related devices to access business information and conduct work while traveling. Encrypt information and look for HTTPS in your browser to identify that your connection to the website is encrypted. Click here to share this security tip.

Phishing, an increasingly common threat, is typically through email where the communication appears to have come from a trusted source. The attacker is hoping the user will click on embedded links or attachments to gain access to sensitive data or install malware on the user's device. Unfortunately, humans are a weak link when it comes to security - even with increased user awareness. Why?
Hackers are persistent. They are constantly retooling their methods and upping the game with refined tactics. Phishing campaigns have become more sophisticated whereas hackers are impersonating global brands (known as brandjacking) or cloning other sites making it nearly impossible to discern the difference from the true, reputable site. These phishing emails look so legitimate they trick users into entering login credentials or other personally identifiable information (PII).

Ransomeware is a simple form of malware (malicious software) that breaches security defenses locking down computer files using encryption. Hackers then demand a ransom to be paid, usually in crypto currency, in exchange for the digital keys to unlock the data. Of course, businesses are likely to pay for the release of their data – especially if they do not have a back of the information. It can be hard for a company to recover from such an attack. The FBI lists Ransomeware as one of the top threats for SMBs.
Cyber Statistics: Ransomware attacks are growing more than 350 percent annually. (Cisco)
Ransomware damage costs will rise to $11.5 billion in 2019 and a business will fall victim to a ransomware attack every 14 seconds.
In the Official Annual Cybercrime Report (ACR) by Cybersecurity Ventures there is a ransomeware attack every 14 seconds. The company also estimates that number will increase to every 11 seconds by 2021.(Cybersecurity Ventures)
The average ransomware payment also increased significantly, by 184% from Q1 to Q2 this year, nearly tripling the cost from $12,762 to $36,295.
Find out how much a breach would cost your business.
Security Tips: Back up your data – especially critical files to a secure cloud storage and ensure the cloud storage is protected against ransomware. Have anti-malware, anti-virus software solutions in place. If you are using a free anti-virus software make sure it offers Ransomeware protection. Lastly, keep up with software updates and patches. Don't ignore those software update messages. Share this security tip.

Denial of Service (DoS) is when an application, network or system becomes unavailable to its legitimate users because it has been overwhelmed by an attacker's malicious actions. The hacker bombards the target machine, network or website with a barrage of requests preventing use of the service.
Cyber Statistic: 51% of small businesses experienced denial of service attacks

Insider Threats and Misuse which includes any kind of unauthorized or malicious use of a businesses' information. According to recent reports by IBM and Verizon, insider threats are responsible for 60 to 77 percent of all data breaches. Unfortunately, companies need to think about the impact disgruntled employees or ex-employees can have on their business. Especially since the overall organizational structure of how a business operates has changed to include freelancers, contractors, and remote workers. Couple this with the increased dependency on cloud services, BYOD and work from anywhere policy – as long as the work gets done. These factors create a whole new era of insider threats and security risks.
Cyber Statistics: It takes most business about 197 days to detect a breach on their network.
95 percent of Americans are concerned about how companies use their data.
Security Tip: Know what sensitive data you have and who has access to it. Monitor access and put access management controls in place as well as a minimum necessary policy. Share this security tip.

<Aftermath! What happened to Urban Housing prices after the housing bubble crashed?
Housing Recovery (Q1 2012 to Q4 2013)>
Economic Geography, Housing Price
Post Bubble Housing Price Stagnation (USA)
Matthew Mulbrandonon April 21, 2014 /0 comments
The US housing bubble peaked in 2006 nationally and burst by Q1 2009. Then the housing market stagnated nationally until Q1 2012. Among 100 urban areas, 15 had positive price changes, the largest gain 11 percent, while 35 had losses of more than 10 percent, the largest losses around 25 percent. There was a marked change in the volatility and the geographic concentration of losses during the crash. The Sunbelt states experienced the largest losses in the crash but during the stagnation metro areas like Chicago and Seattle cracked the top 10 in losses. Interestingly, several metro areas suffered more during the stagnation than the crash (see appendix). Prices change varied geographic by urban area as did underling causes including unemployment, psychology, foreclosures, previous price changes, rental prices, home construction, and local economic and population changes. From Q1 2012 to Q4 2013 prices have increased in all US cities in the Federal Housing Finance Administration (FAHA) data set (see next post).
Looking at the data we see a mixed picture of housing prices during the stagnation. Geographically, Texas faired well as did non-coastal states north of Texas. Energy prices and the lack of a large housing bubble resulting in less foreclosures helped Texas cities no doubt. The other non-coastal cities to the north of Texas also did not experience a housing bubble which left them with less foreclosures and uncertainty post crash. Two outliers in different directions are Washington DC, Metro and Las Vegas, Metro. DC experienced a sharp rise during the stagnation 11 percent much greater than the 7 percent gain of the next closest city (San Jose, CA), even after a fall in housing price during the housing bust of 27 percent. No doubt lots of government spending, relatively low unemployment and in migration positively influenced prices post crash. The city DC itself had fewer risky mortgages than the 'burbs which ameliorated the bubble. Like other metros Las Vegas was hit very hard but the housing crash 49 percent but in contrast also continued large declines in this period, 25 percent, and 1 in 10 houses were in foreclosure in 2010. Boise decreased about the same amount but only lost 14 percent during the crash so it was a different story.
Performance during the crash did appeared to have some influence on the price during the housing stagnation. The same general pattern of Texas and the interior Midwest and West out performing the rest of urban America held. However, several cities like DC and in sun belt states of California and Florida (Miami) did quite well during the stagnation but were hit hard during the bubble.
These declines in metro areas by 2010 fueled fears of wave after wave of foreclosures. There were repeated calls for federal intervention in the refinancing and equity of mortgages. While some efforts were made in reality little was done. Most of the largest foreclosure areas had already experienced a slowdown in rates by 2010[2]. On can see that cities 4 Sunbelt states California, Arizona, Florida, and Nevada lead the way in foreclosures in 2010.
There was increase in regulations and down payments probably prudent moves given new found volatility of the housing market. This period up to today has seen little home construction or new home owners nationally and a sharp increase in job creation [1]. Also new renters outstripped new owner during the last 7 years as a result the number of new homes built also decreased sharply [1]. Problems with financing in addition to the slow economy may have contributed to slow home starts [1].
Population growth in metro areas varied and was not tied to the housing market and often even macro economic trends. The upper Midwest and NY State having large losses in population for 2010-2011 while places like Tucson and Phoenix and Las Vegas with large price losses gained population over all. Again there were many factors at play natural increase, international migration, region economy. (note not all metros like LA were Core Based Statistical Areas or Metro Division as so the geographic areas may be slightly different, and this map has many more small urban areas)
So we see a mixed picture among urban areas both temporally and spatially. We don't see any one clear pattern emerging during the stagnation period geographically that can be reduced to a few patterns. This is in contrast to the boom period were almost all metro areas had increasing values often with huge increases of 90 or 100 percent usually in Sun Belt States with risky subprime mortgages and high numbers investment property purchases. This post just gives a picture or exploration of what was going and should not be interpreted as a causal explanation of the housing market during the time period.

Will this work be recorded? I would love to see it or the results!
The final output that everyone looks for is – My business improved!
It's an intriguing proposition but doesn't it place the company at a disadvantage unless there was some form of standardisation or modularity to a contract?
Otherwise, surely it would only work for high-value low-volume contract work. Also, wouldn't the dynamics of the relationship be somewhat inverted with the choice not so much being with the consumer but in the hands of the producer?


In this week's episode of Media Voices, Peter speaks to the European Journalism Centre's Adam Thomas about its mission of enabling and sustaining quality journalism through a program of online resources, seminars, training and grants.
In the news round-up we discuss Wired's paywall, digital successes at several other outlets, and the She Rocks editorial campaign across Team Rock's titles. Peter admits that he can't handle the feeling of hope.
I met Adam Thomas at the News Impact Summit in Manchester last year. As Director of the European Journalism Centre, Adam leads the team that organises these summits around Europe, introducing local journalists to media ideas and innovations that they might otherwise miss.
The EJC also delivers training and learning materials and distributes grant funding, all targeted at developing high-quality, sustainable journalism.
I invited Adam on to the podcast after reading about #AsEquals, a project that funded global news giant CNN to be the distribution partner for dozens of independent journalists covering gender equality. The project confused me and inspired me in pretty much equal measure and I really wanted to understand how it worked.
I struggle a little with philanthropy in journalism. I'm nervous of press projects that are financially beholden to rich individuals, regardless of their motives. But, in the middle of a perfect storm of collapsing business models and rapid technology change, media needs money.
Redistributing grant money from the likes of the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, the EJC is independent, international and non-profit. And the work it does is all about sustainability not dependency.
I really hope the future of journalism is more than charitable giving. But until we can get there, it was reassuring to hear Adam's views on the development of the media ecosystem, especially partnerships between big media and the 'accidental entrepreneurs' that have become so common in our world.

Huawei's use of Android restricted by Google
Google has barred the world's second biggest smartphone maker, Huawei, from some updates to the Android operating system, dealing a blow to the Chinese company.
New designs of Huawei smartphones are set to lose access to some Google apps.
The move comes after the Trump administration added Huawei to a list of companies that American firms cannot trade with unless they have a licence.
Google said it was "complying with the order and reviewing the implications".
Huawei said it would continue to provide security updates and after sales services to all existing Huawei and Honor smartphone and tablet products covering those have been sold or still in stock globally.
"We will continue to build a safe and sustainable software ecosystem, in order to provide the best experience for all users globally," it added.
In a press briefing, China said it "supports the relevant company [Huawei] to defend its legitimate rights according to law."

This paper describes the ethical issues involved when research is conducted in an Inuit context by non-Inuit researchers. It draws on the experience of a three-year participatory action research project in Nunavik. It describes the strategies and approaches deployed and adapted by the "Other" researchers to apply the principles of critical Indigenous methodologies. The paper is a reflection on our relationship with the research participants and stakeholders and how our approaches and actions facilitated or hindered their meaningful participation in and ownership of the research. Participants' feedback and reactions to the research process were elicited and are reflected in this paper. This article is of significance for researchers who are thinking of working in Aboriginal communities or other communities to which they are outsiders. While focusing mainly on the role of researchers and their approach, the paper also questions the challenge of bridging Western research practices and critical Indigenous research methods.

About Saratoga
Termed the "Graveyard of Champions," Saratoga Race Course is located in beautiful Saratoga Springs, New York, 30 miles north of the state capital of Albany. It is one of three tracks that comprise NYRA's yearly circuit, joining Belmont and Aqueduct. Saratoga's summer meet traditionally commences in mid-June and ends in early September. Multiple Grade I races dot the racing calendar, and the venue is a preferred destination for top owners, trainers, jockeys and racing enthusiasts alike. The track is steeped in history, having opened in 1863.
The grounds at Saratoga have their own distinct flavor and character. As fans enter, lawn jockeys painted with the silks of stakes winners from the year before are on display. Before each race, a bell is rung by hand to call the jockeys from their quarters to the paddock. There is also ample space for picnics and fans can take a taste of water directly from a mineral spring on the premises. There is a gazebo prominently featured on the infield as well as a canoe adorned with the silk colors of the previous year's Travers winner.
Summary of Saratoga Race Track
Saratoga has a 1 1/8 mile, 9 furlong dirt race and a 1 mile, 8 furlong turf track known as the Mellon Turf Course. There is also an inner turf track which is 7 furlongs.
Known Track Bias
While daily trends occasionally supersede the norm, Saratoga isn't known to have a pronounced track bias. Statistics reflect that horses close to the lead and coming from behind find the winner's circle with almost the same regularity.
Post Positions
As the statistics from the 2018 racing season reflect, winners come from all different starting gate stalls at Saratoga, especially on the dirt. On the main track, drawing the rail—seen by some handicappers and trainers as a curse—isn't necessarily a negative, as horses from the 1 and 2 holes combine to win 31 % of the sprints and 37% of the routes (1 mile or more). On the grass, where positioning is viewed as much more paramount, the rail wasn't as ideal as most winners came from positions 4-6.
Leading Jockeys
An Ortiz has been at the top of the Saratoga jockey standings for the past four seasons, with Irad Oritz Jr. capturing the title on 2015 and again in 2018 and younger brother Jose Ortiz emerging victorious in 2016 and 2017. Much of the Ortiz brothers' success can be attributed to their associations with top trainers Chad Brown and Todd Pletcher. In addition, both Irad and Jose Ortiz pick up a great deal of mounts from live horses shipping into Saratoga. Since summertime racing is chock full of stakes races from coast to coast, some prominent Saratoga jockeys miss time at the Spa to travel elsewhere to ride. Indicative of just how prestigious the Saratoga riding title is, Irad Ortiz claimed the Eclipse Award for top jockey nationally in 2018, due in large part to his performance at the Spa.

Leading Trainers
Trainer Chad Brown grew up in New York's Capital Region and points many of his star horses to the Saratoga Meet. In 2018, the Cornell graduate claimed the Saratoga training title in a landslide, marking the second time in three years he's taken home the honor. His 46 wins were a single-season record as well. Nearly every top trainer has a string at Saratoga, and unlike other meets where an assistant is dispatched to oversee the proceeding, big name trainers are ever present both in the mornings and afternoons at Saratoga. Because of the prestige that comes with a winner's circle appearance at Saratoga, many owners and trainers drop their horses in condition in an attempt to have their picture taken.

Saratoga Track History
Standardbred racing began in Saratoga Springs as early as the mid 1800s. In 1863, future congressman John Morrisey held the first thoroughbred race card on the current location of the Oklahoma Training Track. In 1864, the existing track opened into doors. Key figures in the creation were John Hunter, William R. Travers and Cornelius Vanderbilt.
Saratoga has held racing annually since 1864 with very few exceptions. In 1896, no meet was held due to a high volume of tracks in the area. Anti-gambling legislation in 1911 and 1912 put a kibosh on racing for those summers. From 1943-45, racing was suspended due to World War II. Belmont Park on Long Island hosted the race meeting those summers.
In the 1960s, the grandstand was expanded, doubling the seating capacity. In 1999, Saratoga Race Course was rated as Sports Illustrated's #10 sports venue of the 20th Century, alongside iconic American venues Wrigley Field, Yankee Stadium, Augusta National Golf Club and Lambeau Field.
Saratoga Notable Races
Every summer, the top horses across America and from around the world descend upon Saratoga for a full and complete calendar of stakes races. Nearly every Breeders Cup division is represented on the stakes calendar, and many Breeders Cup champions have entered the starting gate or paraded around Saratoga's winners circle. Because of the timing of the meet, the track cards a plethora of two-year-old races at many distances on both the dirt and turf. The centerpiece of the tracks stakes program comes in late August with the Travers, termed the "Midsummer Derby." After they've competed on the Triple Crown trail, many horses point towards the Travers.
In total, 16 Grade I races are held annually at Saratoga: 4 Star Dave (3YO&up), Alabama (3YO fillies), Ballerina (Fillies and Mares 3&up), Coaching Club American Oaks (3YO fillies), Diana (older fillies), Forego (3YO&up), Hopeful (2YO), Allen Jerkens Memorial (3YO), Personal Ensign (older fillies), Spinaway (2YO fillies), Sword Dancer (4&up), Test (3YO&up) Travers (3YO), Vanderbilt (3YO&up), Whitney (3YO&up), Woodward (3&up).

EDMONTON—The Boreal Electroacoustic Music Society will commemorate 10 years of Art's Birthday Edmonton with a special show taking place Saturday, Jan. 14 at the Ortona Armoury (9722-102 Street). The event, Art's Birthday 2017, pairs seven local acts with works by seven international composers and soundscape artists, some of whom created works specifically for this occasion.
Women will comprise the majority of local performers gracing the stage, with pianist Himiko, saxophonist Allison Balcetis, noise duo Harshmellow and Chapman stick player Dale Ladouceur slated to play. Rounding out the live lineup will be keyboardist and music journalist Mike Ross, software sound designer SkruntSkrunt and guitarist Dave Wall.
Works will be by Dai Fujikura and Tamayurakurage (Japan) Hari Maia (Brazil), Mental Escape Pod (Austria), Nobodisoundz (France), James Shearman (England), and Marymotto (Spain). Videos will be courtesy John Osborne and Christine Miller.
Art's Birthday originated in 1963 when French surreal artist Robert Filliou declared that art didn't exist until a million years ago when someone dropped a dry sponge into a pail of water. Choosing his own birthday of Jan. 17 to celebrate the event, Filliou proposed a public holiday, which has since been adopted by arts organizations and collectives in more than 20 nations worldwide. Edmonton first held such an event in 2008, presented by the Film and Video Arts Society at the now-defunct ARTery. The Edmonton Arts Council staged Art's Birthday at Scona Pool the following year. Since 2010, BEAMS has facilitated the event annually.
Doors for Art's Birthday open at 7 p.m., with the show starting at 8 p.m. Tickets are $10 at the door. BEAMS members get in for half-price.

"To promote understanding of the economic and ecological benefits of Artificial Reefs in Eastern North Carolina, in order to raise money for the sinking of new Shipwrecks for the enjoyment of SCUBA Divers and Sports Fisherman along the Crystal Coast of North Carolina."
A great friend of ECARA and Discovery Diving, Nick Abbott, has graciously created these beautiful paintings which are now for sale, with the majority of the proceeds (everything but shipping costs) going to ECARA.
The Darwin painting will be sold for $90, the Hog Fish is $65 and the Shark painting is $50.
Call (252) 728-2265 if you're interested in purchasing, or donating to ECARA!
By 2020 we're hoping to have all of the funds needed to sink a large vessel for our next artificial reef.

The S/V Hardrock Sinks
On June 11 after months of preparation the East Carolina Artificial Reef Association sunk the S/V Hardrock as another artificial reef on the reef site also home to the Indra, the Nepomuk and a Barge. ECARA would like to thank the tireless efforts of Terry Leonard & Dean Anderson in this project and LeRoy Craytor, Steve Myers, Brent Greenberg, Wes Cooper, Calvin & Teresa Shaw of Aquatic Pleasures.
Support is growing for a recently decommissioned Navy ship to be scuttled as a recreational dive site in Jervis Bay.
Federal member for Gilmore, Joanna Gash has made multiple requests in the past for the Navy to scuttle a ship in the area. The ship wreck would be a popular attraction for recreational divers and fishermen.


The home should not only be comfortable, it should also look distinguished, and if you are thinking that the exterior of your property could do with a facelift, there are modern solutions that can transform any home. The latest generation of slat fencing is made from commercial grade aluminium and comes in either a powder coated or timber grain finish, and is maintenance free.
This versatile screen comprises of a series of horizontal slats that can be frameless, or fixed to adjoining posts, and with a range of thickness and spacing, you can determine the level of privacy. With a range of colours and finishes, you can literally transform the exterior with slat fencing.
This consists of a welded steel structure, and is a solid system that can incorporate swing gates, which is ideal for terraced areas. TIG welding gives more strength, so your new fencing will last for many years, and because each project is unique, the screening would be customised for the space.
These are fixed aluminium blades and provide ideal screening for pool areas or in place of a retaining wall. The aluminium comes in a range of powder coated colours and finishes, and is the perfect material to deal with the harsh Western Australian climate.
As a perfect partner to slat fencing, installing exterior shutters will give the home a distinguished look, and you will experience a higher level of privacy, and with total light control, you can create the ideal ambience in any room. Boardwalk's range of aluminium Beachside Shutters are perfect for coastal areas, and with a range of styles and openings, you can find the perfect combination for your home. By using a professional company, all the necessary supports and fitting would be provided, and the installation would be first class.
Before deciding on exterior screening, it makes sense to talk to the experts, who have many years of hands-on experience and are familiar with modern materials. A design team could suggest different options, and you might be surprised at how creative they can be. At Boardwalk, we have been providing customised screening solutions for Perth and surrounding areas for many years, and because we import and manufacture, we are able to offer affordable prices, as there is no middleman involved.
Exterior fencing and screening can not only change the look of your home, it can also add significant value, and with zero maintenance, your new screening will look like new for many years, and will complement the property. We supply and install gates, with motorised solutions, in fact, we can deal with any screening environment, and with our experience, we can offer the homeowner a unique look at an affordable price.
Powder coated aluminium will not corrode, even in the salty Western Australian air, and by installing aluminium screening or fencing, you can say goodbye to that dreaded staining that has to be done every year. Aluminium fencing really is a question of fix and forget, and with the right colour and finish, your home will be transformed.

04 March 2009 News, Web Exclusives
A 16-year-old male is dead after being struck by a train at the Susquehanna-Dauphin subway station.
SEPTA Transit Police told The Temple News that the believed-to-be Asian male, whose name has not been released, was a student at Philadelphia Military Academy at Elverson and had jumped in front of the southbound train just before noon.
While the tragedy is still under investigation, the victim appears to have died by suicide, said SEPTA officials.
The Broad Street Line trains were stopped between Erie and Girard stations from the time of the incident until around 2:45 p.m. Shuttle buses were provided while SEPTA officials and police cleared the scene.
Classmates from PMAE, which is located on 13th Street between Diamond Street and Susquehanna Avenue, said the victim was typically smiling but had been seen crying today in school.
"He was cool, laid-back, usually no apparent problems," said Rahkim Summers, a junior at PMAE. "He even got good grades."
Sources close to the victim reported that his girlfriend, who does not attend PMA, had recently broken up with him.
"I didn't know his girlfriend personally, but I always saw them together at the mall," said Shenika Walker, a sophomore at PMAE. "They always seemed happy.
"He was always happy and smiling and showed no signs of being depressed or anything," Walker said. "This still hasn't hit me yet – it hasn't hit any of us."
Anyone who is suicidal may receive immediate help by logging on to suicide.org or by calling the Philadelphia Behavioral Health Suicide/Crisis Intervention Hotline at 215-686-4420.

Recovering from depression, one book at a time

Spain Nationality two year possible for me?
In the US there was a second class citizenship without political rights but both were citizenship. There was also a stadual citizenship copied with no meaning or reason from the feudal monarchies that made a legal mess.
I was just reading the US Federal Naturalization Law of 1790 which had limited the naturalization of foreign-born persons to "white" persons only (and people who have lived their entire life in the US but were of Asian origin were (court ruled) ineligible for citizenship).
OP: this is a popular question, and the answer is that if you naturalize as an Argentine, you will not qualify for the Ibero-American shortened residence time. This route is open only to those born in Argentina and in some cases to foreign-born descendants of native-born Argentines (or other Ibero-Americans).
There are plenty of Koreans in Argentina. Many of the Chinos I have been to are owned and operated by Koreans, not Chinese.
There are 22.000 coreans in Argentina.
Asians are, in principle, excluded but there you need to read the precedents (I have but I do not have the time for reading them neither a reason for). Consult a lawyer specilized on that.
So Bajo,if I hire you as my lawyer,you can make me to get Spainish citizenship by two year residence?Of cource,I will get AR citizenship first.
If you are from Korea, you already have a v good passport allowing u visa travel to 187 odd countries including all G7 countries.
You can see a residence in Europe by investing some money.
if you want a additional nationality/passport, you can try the Carribean nationality by investment.
Korea have nazism law.It is "dual citizenship is only for birth".
I have dual citizenship. Are you an "overseas Korean" with blood relations eligibility for citizenship? Do you have a Korean passport?
If you really want to become a Spanish citizen, marry a Spaniard.
Dual citizenship is until you are 18. My both children have the Korean and Argentine passports. And my ex have the AR passport but her K citizenship was not cancelled, at the K Embassy they know about his AR citizenship by naturalization and they do not care at all even the K law does not allow dual citizenship.
And your kids have ways to get dual citizenship forever.

Q: G-Suit mail pricing , What is per user mean? I want to buy a g-suit mail.
I already have a domain. I want to buy an email server from the g-suit.
When I visited g-suit pricing, there was "Per User" billing details. Actually I don't know what it means.
what is per user means? is that directs to per domain?
If I want to create 20 mail id in the same domain will it count as one user or 20 users?
as I already told, 20 mail id will be on the same domain name
like user1@mydomain.com, user2@mydomain.com ..... user20@mydomain.com

A: In this case you need to pay 20 users.
Here I add a link with a small discount

A: Per-User means, if you want to make alias mail it won't consider as a user. You won't get any separate Gmail for this mail. Alias mail won't get any extra storage.
Say your domain name is abc.com and you want to create three mail and want to pay for a single user then you will create salesteam@abc.com and two other mail will be sale1@abc.com and sale1@abc.com. Then you can send mail from salesteam@abc.com for all other mail.
Gmail's official statement is:
