Axé Obá Ibo () é uma família religiosa afro-brasileira Axé Ibomina Malê. Está associada ao culto de Obatalá, o senhor dos ibos, cuja dinastia resultante da diáspora dos reinos chamados de obás (os ibominas). Essa família religiosa é uma "árvore" sagrada resultante da tradição ancestral trazida e plantada, em solo brasileiro, por descendentes africanos ibominas e malês (muçurumins). Essa confraria dedicada a Obatalá (possuindo em sua doutrina o Culto aos Antepassados, aos Orixás e a Ifá) tem como matriarca a sacerdotisa Marcolina da Cidade de Palha. Atualmente, a sede do Axé Obá Ibo Ibomina Malê é o Templo do Senhor do Alvorecer.

Palavra Axé
A palavra axé, termo de origem iorubana, possui vários significados, sendo o mais utilizado: amém, assim seja, força. Essa palavra também pode designar templo ou instituição religiosa sob comando, ordem ou lei de algum patriarca ou matriarca.

Axé no Brasil
No Brasil, o termo axé ganhou uma conotação distinta da que era conhecida, em terras africanas, pelas etnias que habitavam as redondezas da atual Nigéria e que utilizavam o tronco linguístico iorubá. Aqui, passou a designar instituição religiosa seguidora de determinada visão étnica. No entanto, essa visão foi afunilando seu significado como se os axés fundados, principalmente na Bahia, representassem a verdadeira emanação da religiosidade africana iorubana. Hoje, no Brasil, quem não pertence a um axé de nome é como se fizesse parte de algum grupo religioso forjado por pessoas que nunca foram iniciadas no culto religioso. No entanto, isso não passa de um grande equívoco. Logo, intitular uma instituição por Axé é uma prática de exclusividade brasileira que teve seu início em Salvador. As demais pessoas que não aderiram a essas leis foram consideradas "sem axé", isto é, sem comando. Todavia, simplesmente essas pessoas preferiram manter seus conhecimentos étnicos religiosos em solo brasileiro em contrariedade aos comandos dos axés de nome na Bahia.

Axé Obá Ibo Ibomina Malê
Axé Obá Ibo Ibomina Malê é uma instituição religiosa fundada como Igreja de devoção a Obatalá, possuindo em sua doutrina os cultos aos Antepassados, aos Orixás e a Ifá, no Brasil. Sua história está atrelada ao candomblé muçurumim (culto dos alufás e adifás). Embora haja analogia entre cânticos sagrados, ritmos musicais, narrativas de Ifá, cerimoniais públicos e utilização de uma base linguística ("ioruba") com outros grupos étnicos afro-brasileiros, as doutrinas, as liturgias, as normas e os ritos dessa Família estão calçados no conhecimento religioso que os descendentes ibominas trouxeram e implantaram no Brasil. O Axé Obá Ibo Ibomina Malê é rama afro-brasileira, que não necessita da chancela de nenhum outro grupo religiosos  para realizar seus cultos, seja do Brasil, da América ou da África. Sem negar os conhecimentos adquiridos por meio de estudos e de pesquisas, o ensinamento oral da tradição ancestral, passado há anos de um sacerdote para outro, tem sido a base dessa família religiosa.

O Axé Obá Ibo não possui "vínculo" religioso com os demais Templos Religiosos de Matriz Iorubana, existentes no Brasil, que não possuam em sua história a venerável Sacerdotisa Marcolina de Oxum como sua matriarca. Embora esse Axé tenha sido registrado na década de 1980, quase todo o patrimônio cultural religioso dessa confraria afro-brasileira ibomina vem sendo transmitido de sacerdote a sacerdote, desde Mãe Marcolina até os dias atuais.

Tronco Étnico Religioso do Axé Ibomina Malê
 Marcolina da Cidade da Palha;

Origem do nome da Instituição Religiosa
A ideia de registrar Axé Obá Ibo surgiu do encontro entre Laudelino de Xangô e seu descendente religioso Antônio Penna de Obatalá, em fevereiro de 1986, em Paquetá (Rio de Janeiro). Laudelino Loxemoju solicitara que Oba Alaiê (Antônio Penna) assumisse interinamente a frente de seu axé. No entanto, o templo Ilê de Xangô Ogodô, em São João de Meriti (RJ), não possuía nenhum registro ou documento qualquer. Seguindo uma tradição oral, Laudelino dizia que era do Axé de Baribô (referência a seu respectivo sacerdote Arnaldo Babaribô) ou do Axé do Baixão (referência a seu respectivo avô de santo, Procópio d'Ogum). Segundo Laudelino Loxemoju, para alguém ser sacerdote, o mesmo precisaria apenas seguir os ensinamentos passados por sua família de santo.

Desse encontro, os dois concordaram que o nome deveria ser uma homenagem ao ancestral Obatalá, já que o alufá Arnaldo Babaribô e Obá Alaiê eram descendentes dessa divindade. Daí nomearam Axé Obá Ibo. Esse nome surgiu em virtude da necessidade de se fazer constar nos estatutos um nome fantasia da mesma forma que os nomes de vários outros axés no Brasil.

A partir desse momento, Loxemonju foi nomeado sacerdote mor (aboré-nlá / adifá) do Axé Obá Ibo, sendo Obá Alaiê o seu sucessor. No entanto, como o Ilê de Xangô Ogodô encontrava-se fechado, o templo dirigido por Antônio Penna de Obatalá, no bairro Vila Centenário, em Duque de Caxias/RJ, tornou-se a sede do axé. Nesse ínterim, em 28 de fevereiro de 1986 (data da ata de fundação e registro), foi dado o início da formalização documental do Axé Obá Ibo. Em 1988, falece o sacerdote Laudelino de Xangô, deixando Antonio Penna "na cadeira" de sumo sacerdote do Axé. Todavia, por motivos particulares, o templo fica inativo por dois anos, sendo reaberto somente em 1990.

Todo o conhecimento acerca da descendência ibomina eclodiu a partir da década de 1990, quando Antônio Penna de Obatalá iniciou suas pesquisas sobre sua árvore religiosa. Quando do lançamento do seu primeiro livro, Merindilogun Kauri, o adifá Famakindê Obá Alaiê (Antonio Penna de Obatalá) descobriu toda a sua linhagem religiosa: do alufá malê Arnaldo Babaribô até a sacerdotisa nigeriana Marcolina (de Oxum) e seu "marido", um alufá da família de Obatalá. Esse último achado apenas corroborou a homenagem ao eborá Obatalá, já que é patriarca do povo ibo (ibominas).

De acordo com os relatos e as pesquisas, Laudelino Loxemoju, Arnaldo Babaribô, Procópio d'Ogum, Mãe Marcolina não se importavam com filiação a um Axé em comum, bem como não seguiam as diretrizes religiosas de uma confraria étnica que não fosse a deles. "Eles" eram iniciados e consagrados na religiosidade familiar passada de geração a geração. Era assim no tempo deles. O sangue e o solo de origem eram mais sagrados e respeitados.

Em dezembro de 2000, quando a sede do Axé foi mudada para Chácara Rio-Petrópolis, a razão social do Axé Obá Ibo passou a ser TEMPLO DO SENHOR DO ALVORECER. Doravante, este o nome passou a denominar a primeira Igreja do Axé Obá Ibo (Templo sede do Culto aos Antepassados, aos Orixás e a Ifá). O adifá (chefe dos alufás) Obá Alaiyê Famankindê é o aboré-unlá (sumo-sacerdote) do Axé Obá Ibo Ibomina Malê, tendo Obanífúnmil'ayo Famudá como bàbáalààse (sucessor).

In Citizenship we want pupils to actively engage with issues that will affect them and their local community. We want to enable them to make their own decisions and to take responsibility for their own lives and the communities in which they live. We support pupils as they actively complete enquiries into issues important to their local community and their own lives. We enable pupils to make a positive contribution by helping them to develop the expertise and experience needed to claim their rights and understand their responsibilities.
Global Issue: How democratic was the decision to leave the EU?
Inspired by a pupil here at Falinge Park, we will investigate the recent decision to leave the European Union. They will examine the impact the EU has had on Britain and evaluate how democratic the decision was. Many of our pupils have made statements that they felt it unfair they were excluded from having a say, something we will investigate with them. They will then lobby local MPs and others in a position of power to help them scrutinise the decision to leave.
We are developing a number of enrichment activities within Citizenship. We want pupils to be able to engage with guest speakers and to engage them in a dialogue of change. There will be a number of opportunities for pupils to go out in the community in pupil-lead campaigns to make a change in the community.

Event Bookings Show Success of PCCA's New Business Model
-News -
BY Brittany Trevick

Four years after it met in Philadelphia, Lightfair International will again convene at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in 2017.
Lightfair is the world's largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show and conference; it first met in Philly in 2011. The event's return signifies the effectiveness of the convention center's new business model.
"To say that we are thrilled about Lightfair's decision to return would be an understatement. This group is highly respected within the trade show circuit and their decision to come back to Philadelphia says a great deal about their confidence in the considerable changes that have taken place at the Pennsylvania Convention Center over the last two years," says Jack Ferguson, president/CEO, Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau. "In addition, our city's accessibility for convention attendees, compact hotel package, walkable downtown and expanded Convention Center make us an appealing destination to convention groups and were all things that Lightfair looked at when they selected Philadelphia."
The group took into account many factors when considering Philly as its host city. One major decision was the ability to effectively work with the convention center's labor force. Since May 2013, when the group first met, the center had already started implementing a four-point plan established by the Philadelphia Convention Center Authority's Board of Directors. The plan worked to better the customer experience and raise the competitiveness of the center. It began with the selection of venue management firm SMG in June 2013 and led to successful negotiation of a new labor agreement with four trade unions that was affirmed in May 2014.
Since then, the CVB booked 69 shows at the convention center, equating to an estimated $1.4 billion in economic impact for coming years. The PCCA kept Lightfair up-to-date on the enormous amount of progress taking place. Gregory Fox, chairman, PCCA's Board of Directors, who met with the group to listen to feedback and address concerns directly.
"We have implemented a variety of changes at the center with the goal of recapturing prior customers and attracting new shows and events," says Fox. "LFI's decision demonstrates that the strategic initiatives presented to the board three years ago—and subsequently adopted and implemented—are making the Center more competitive, driving increased bookings, and benefitting the city's hospitality industry."
Lightfair will take place on May 7–11, 2017, and is estimated to bring in more than $43 million in economic impact for Philadelphia.
"The center is continuing to see the benefits of new customer-friendly work rules, expanded exhibitor rights and the hiring of SMG to manage the day-to-day operations of the center," says John McNichol, president/CEO, PCCA. "SMG brought a new customer-focused approach to the management of the center that is receiving high marks from the industry. We are thrilled that LFI has selected Philadelphia for their 2017 event, and we look forward to delivering a great experience."

As far as we know, this year Fedora was represented by ambassadors and advocates in five events: in Massa Carrara (event organized by L.U.Ma.Ca.) with a talk about Silverblue oriented to ordinary Linux users held by alciregi; in Ivrea (event organized by IvLug) with a talk titled "Fedora: an up to date distro for everyone" held by dariolesca; and in Mezzago (event organized by K12 APS, BrigX Bernareggio and CoderDojoBrianza) with a talk titled "The three souls of the web in the service of the communities: information, collaboration, innovation" held by mailga. In Rieti (event organized by lugrieti) and in Cagliari (event organized by GULCh) there were Fedora booths thanks to gabrycaos and veon.
In Carrara there were at least 30 people witnessing the talks, plus a lot of people jumped in just to ask something or to see some projects exposed in the dedicated area, and just to grab some swag. The attendees were mainly long time Linux users using various distributions, and some high school students. The topic of the talk related to Fedora Silverblue has produced a lot of excitement, mainly because on the Linux desktop ecosystem there have been not too many novelties in the last times. On the other side the new kind of Linux distribution was seen as too destabilizing in the classical day to day average user workflow. However, the container technology brought to the desktop was seen as an interesting opportunity, and this is particularly true for students looking to learn modern technologies for a future job in the IT field. Here you can find the slides (in Italian).
Some details from Ivrea (by dariolesca).
In Ivrea, in the University room "Officina H", at least 100 people have took part to the event: someone attending to all the talks and some other jumped in just to lurk and see what kind of event it was.
There were many talks about many topics, attendees seemed very interested and compelled, the Q&A session at the end of each talk was very active.
There was a gadget booth, where people was able to grab some swag provided by Italian Linux Society and by the Fedora Project.
The PC used to show the slides of each talk was running Fedora 29 (still beta at the time).
The talk presented by me was titled "Fedora: una distro per tutti al passo coi tempi" (more or less translated to "Fedora: an up to date distro for everyone"). In addition it was showed how to keep many desktop environment on the same Fedora installation, and that it is possible to select one of them at each login. A note: Fedora was installed on an USB 3 stick.
The attendees have shown a strong interest, and many of them asked how to try it on their PC.
Here you can find the slides (in Italian).
The Linux Day held in Mezzago ("biblioteca") didn't saw the attendance of lots of people, maybe 20 'cause, as usual here in Italy, the Linux Day is very fragmented. Nevertheless the talks were very interesting and the people followed all of them paying lots of attention. Among the speakers there was the presence of Italo Vignoli and this raised the level of the talks.
About my speech, I explained (mainly referred to the Fedora community) how a community is built, the dynamics within , and a sort of "netiquette" to get requested things done.
It was a half-an-hour talk so I could not dive in the deep of the communities flows. For the people who want give a glance to the talks, here the slides and the full speeches (in Italian).
We know that the Italian Fedora Community as a whole is a little bit inactive, compared to some years ago. We know many Italian Fedora users, but there is a lack of people with a compelling interest in animating or actively participating in a community. However there are various Italian contributors, but each of us does their work under the hood as an individual, in some cases collaborating directly in the international community.
Users sometimes don't care about the possibility to contribute to the project (to any project, actually). It seems that people look at a Linux distribution as a product, like a smartphone or a commercial software, and it is particularly true for young people: if it works it is nice, but if they encounter a problem it is more simple to complain or to switch to another distro. At a first glance, it seems difficult to on-board them as contributors. Many people is not aware that there are many ways to contribute inside a community.
For sure in the near future we can work in order to convince current contributors to head up and participate to events with talks ad workshops.
Looking to the next year Linux Day, during the coming 12 months, we could try to solicit more people (be they regular users or contributors) to submit speeches talking about the Fedora Project and to organize Fedora booths in more cities than this year event. In addition we should fight laziness, and we could try to invite regular users to contribute and look with interest to the community behind the project, and not only to the technology.

Zacarias Moussaoui (San Juan de Luz, Francia; 30 de mayo de 1968) es un ciudadano francés convicto por haber participado en la red terrorista que organizó el 11-S.

Es el último hijo de Aicha el-Wafi, madre de una pobre familia de origen marroquí, la cual se separó a los 24 años de edad, tras sufrir maltratos de su marido. Zac pasó los primeros cinco años de su vida en diferentes orfanatos. A los 22 años se trasladó a Londres para continuar sus estudios de comercio internacional. Su hermano, Abdula Al-Samir, contó que ya para estos tiempos mostraba extraños comportamientos, señalando "discursos agresivos e intolerantes". En mayo de 2006 fue condenado a cadena perpetua en Estados Unidos por los atentados del 11-S.

Biografía

Infancia
Su madre, Aicha el-Wafi, se casó a los 14 años, y a los cinco años la familia se trasladó a Francia, donde él nació. El matrimonio se diluyó 10 años más tarde luego de que su madre dejara a su padre por maltratos, cuando él y sus hermanos aún eran jóvenes. La familia se mantuvo del pobre sueldo de Aicha, quien trabajaba de limpiadora. Según su hermano y sus compañeros de estudios, él era un amante del baloncesto, tenía la ilusión de dedicarse a dicho deporte luego de cursar el colegio.

Nacimiento

Cuando vivía en Oklahoma, Zacarias Moussaoui fue conocido con diversos nombres, como Al Sahrawi y Shaqil de Abu Khaled. Realizó un máster en negocio internacional en que se graduó en 1995.

Ya por el año 1995, nadie de su familia sabía nada de él. Antes del atentado del 11-S, se lo identificó cercano a Abu Hamza, el condenado a 7 años de prisión por incendiar la mezquita de Finsbury Park en Londres. En 1998 pasó por un campo de entrenamiento de Al Qaida en Khalden, y fue invitado a Pakistán por Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, el número tres de la red de Osama bin Laden y presunto organizador del 11-S.

Según declaraciones de su madre, ella cree que su hijo ha sido explotado, utilizando como cabo su odio al racismo y aprovechándose de la falta de un padre en su vida.

En 2001, viajó a Estados Unidos y tomó cursos de pilotaje. Al igual que algunos de los autores de los atentados del 11 de septiembre, se entrenó en un simulador de Boeing 747. En agosto del mismo año, Moussaoui fue detenido por cargos de inmigración, pero aunque algunos agentes se preocuparon pensando en que sus cursos eran con fines violentos, le restaron importancia. Él negó ser miembro de una organización terrorista y que estuviese tomando lecciones de vuelo con el propósito de atentar contra la vida de ciudadanos estadounidenses. Sostuvo que lo hacía por puro placer personal. George Tenet, el anterior director de la CIA, fue informado del arresto de Moussaoui en Minnesota, un mes antes del 11-S.

Aunque asegura que no formó parte del grupo que realizó los atentados, se declaró culpable, pero después se retractó. Aceptó ayuda de los abogados, pero luego la rechazó. En abril de 2005 se volvió a declarar culpable. Uno de sus abogados, Edward MacMahon, no excluye alegar esquizofrenia.

Zac (como se lo conocía en la intimidad), pidió reunirse con Jalid Sheij Mohamed, el presunto cerebro de los ataques; Mustafá Ahmed Al Hawsawi, responsable financiero, y Ramzi bin Al Shaibah, presunto coordinador de los atentados para que atestigüen que no estaba al tanto de la trama de los ataques, aun habiendo reconocido tras 5 años de prisión ser miembro de Al-Qaeda. Más tarde dijo haber sido elegido personalmente por el propio Osama bin Laden para estrellar un avión en la Casa Blanca en un ataque posterior al 11-S.

En mayo de 2006 fue condenado a cadena perpetua. Cumple condena en ADX Florence, una cárcel federal de máxima seguridad, tiene el número de la Agencia Federal de Prisiones 51427-054.

Iberdrola and SunPower to collaborate on 30MW solar park in Colorado
By Syanne Olson
SunPower and Iberdrola Renewables will be working together on the construction of a 30MW solar park in Colorado. Located on 216 acres of private land, which use to for agricultural purposes in Alamosa County, the San Luis Valley Solar Ranch will commence construction later this year with the plant expected to be in full operation by the end of 2011.
"Today, high-efficiency solar PV technology is competitively-priced for power plant applications. It's fast to install, and reliably delivers clean power, particularly during peak demand hours," said Howard Wenger, president of SunPower's utility and power plant business group. "We congratulate Iberdrola Renewables for its leadership in the promotion of solar power development, and for demonstrating how renewable technologies are part of the solution to ensure the health of our economy and our environment."
Using SunPower's E19 solar panels and Tracker system, Iberdrola will develop, own and operate the San Luis Solar Ranch while selling the electricity produced under a long-term contract with Xcel Energy. Xcel will then distribute the electricity throughout the area's utility grid.

Picturing left politics: Introducing Adrian Teal
Last week we launched our new Corbyn epoch masthead by Adrian Teal. Here we talk to Adrian whose work also adorned the front of our Labour conference special issue
What made you take up political cartooning? which cartoonists have been inspirational to you?
I used to knock around the Spitting Image Workshop when I was a kid, and they were geniuses because they made satire popular. I have no idea why, but I've always been drawn to cartooning with an edge. Whether it was the dark surrealism of Terry Gilliam's Monty Python animations, or the visceral, biting work of Gerald Scarfe, artwork that gets attention is what I love, and political cartoons can usually make important points more simply, more directly, and more effectively than 1,000 words of copy.
Is it political characters, with certain facial features, political themes or events that provide a cartoonist with the best artistic material?
All of the above, I'd say. Cartoonists are bullies, really. We pick on physical characteristics, and use them as a stick to beat politicians with. The ideal is when you can combine two great and seemingly unrelated news stories centred on one or two big names in one cartoon, so that they both energise each other, and make the political point more forcefully as a consequence. It becomes greater than the sum of its parts. It helps if politicians are well-established too, because then you have a wealth of past and infamous misdemeanours to exploit. It takes a while for cartoonists to get to grips with a public figure's character when they first appear on the scene.

Which politician do you hate most to draw?
Clegg was a nightmare because he was 'insurance salesman' bland. I think most caricaturists would tell you that Maggie Thatcher was very tricky to capture too. Apart from the big hair, her face was actually pretty unremarkable.
With the on-going decline and pressures of for-print periodicals and newspapers, what sort of political future does cartooning have?
I genuinely have no idea. What we really need is the next big vehicle for satire to come along and reinvigorate the whole genre, just as Private Eye did in the '60s, and Spitting Image did in the '80s. Also, editors need to stop seeing cartoons as a luxury they can't afford, and start realising they are a necessity they can't do without.

Many animal-pollinated plant species have been introduced to non-native regions without their usual pollinators. Nevertheless, some of these alien species managed to establish reproducing naturalized populations, which might negatively affect native plants. Recent studies have shown that many naturalized alien species can readily attract native pollinators. However, it is not known whether alien species that have not established naturalized populations are less successful in attracting pollinators. Therefore, we tested whether flower-visitation rates are lower for non-naturalized aliens than for naturalized alien and native species. We conducted a comparative study on flower visitation of 185 native, 37 naturalized alien and 224 non-naturalized alien plant species in the Botanical Garden of Bern, Switzerland. Our phylogenetically corrected analyses showed that non-naturalized alien species received fewer flower visitors than both naturalized alien and native species. Native, naturalized alien and non-naturalized alien species were visited by similar flower-visitor communities. Furthermore, among the naturalized alien species, the ones with a broader distribution range in Switzerland received a more diverse set of flower visitors. Although it has been suggested that most alien plants can readily integrate into native plant–pollinator networks, we show evidence that the capacity to attract flower visitors in non-native regions is different for naturalized and non-naturalized alien plants. Therefore, we conclude that successful naturalization of alien plants may be related to flower visitation.

For Bayler…
This is a follow-up to the blog I wrote earlier today about South Carolina playing for a young man.
The South Carolina Gamecocks claimed the National Championship at the College World Series. The team will forever stand as the final champion at Rosenblatt Stadium. With the "Greatest Show On Dirt" moving to a new home in 2011, this CWS was filled with emotion. To make it even more emotional, South Carolina was playing for more than themselves, more than a University and more than the record books they will forever be in. The Gamecocks were playing this one for Bayler.
Bayler Teal is a 7-year old boy who passed away on Thursday. He had a rare form of cancer called Neauroblastoma. The young man met the team a long time ago and has been one of their biggest fans. When Michael Roth took the mound for his first start of the season on Friday he dedicated the performance to Bayler. They won. Again the team dedicated the championship series to Bayler. The team wrote the letters "BT" on their hats in memory of the young man.
Bayler's family was able to mkae it to the championship series. What a way to win it…for a young man, a family. It's a story that has become a hit everywhere. On Twitter a special hashtag exploded with tweets…. #winitforBayler.
After the players received their individual awards on home plate, USC Head Coach Ray Tanner addressed the crowd. He thanked the SC fans that made the trip to Omaha. He thanked UCLA for being a class act and the "toughest team we've played all year." But before he closed he spoke of young Bayler. He talked about how he was with the team for a long time before he closed with….
"Hes gone to a greater place now, but i am assured hes watching down on us right now and smiling"

Richard G. Tangeman
Dick Tangeman was born in 1940 in New York City, New York. He graduated with a bachelor'd degree from New York University in February 1964, and entered the U.S. Navy's Aviation Officer Candidate Program on April 22, 1964, receiving his commission as an Ensign on August 17, 1964. Ens Tangeman completed Naval Aviation Officer School and was designated a Naval Flight Officer in December 1964, and then attended RA-5C Vigilante Replacement Air Group training with RVAH-3 at NAS Sanford, Florida, from December 1964 to December 1965. His first assignment was as an RA-5C Reconnaissance Navigator with RVAH-1 at NAS Sanford and deployed aboard the aircraft carriers USS Independence (CVA-62, from June 1966 to February 1967) and USS Enterprise (CVN-65, from January to May 1968) from December 1965 until he was forced to eject over North Vietnam and was taken as a Prisoner of War on May 5, 1968. After spending 1,775 days in captivity, Lt Tangeman was released during Operation Homecoming on March 14, 1973. He was briefly hospitalized to recover from his injuries at the Naval Hospital at NAS Jacksonville, Florida, and then received an assignment to complete his Master's degree at Florida Tech University from July 1973 to August 1975. CDR Tangeman served as an Admin Officer and Naval Flight Officer Instructor with VT-86 at NAS Pensacola, Florida, from September 1975 to May 1977, and then as an A-6 Intruder bombardier/navigator with VA-176 at NAS Oceana, Virginia, from June 1977 to September 1979.

His 1st (of 3) Legion of Merit w/Valor Citation reads:
For exceptionally meritorious conduct in the performance of outstanding service as a Prisoner of War in North Vietnam from May 1968 to March 1973. Under the most adverse of conditions, he resisted all attempts by the North Vietnamese to use him in causes detrimental to the United States, never wavering in his devotion and loyalty to the United States. In an outstanding and tireless fashion he served as an entertainer to provide diversion and constructive rehabilitative thinking to his fellow prisoners during their long internment. Despite harsh treatment and lack of material aids, he devoted long hours toward improving their morale and well-being. His extraordinary skill, resourcefulness, and dedication to duty throughout his lengthy confinement reflected great credit upon himself and upheld the highest traditions of the Naval Service and the United States Armed Forces.

Kaikorai Valley High School, as it was formerly known, was opened to pupils on 4 February 1958. When the decision to build a new high school in Dunedin at this time was made due to 'baby boom' roll growth, four possible locations were suggested: Tainui Inlet; the Ocean Beach golf links; Kaikorai Valley; and the Balmacewen golf links. The costs of reclaiming land at the Tainui Inlet and opposition from golf players and ratepayers meant the current site was chosen.
101 third form students attended the school's very first assembly in C block, as at the time it was the only building completed of the planned four single-storey blocks capable of accommodating 600 pupils. Kaikorai Valley road itself was a narrow, gravelled, corrugated country lane, deeply pitted by the continual battering received from heavy trucks and earth moving equipment.
At this inaugural assembly, the school's first Principal, Mr Rex Maslin, introduced the six other staff members and the Board Chairman, Professor Guy Manton, explained to the pupils that their school motto, 'Quaerite et invenietis', meant "seek and you shall find." The official opening ceremony of the school did not take place until November, once the assembly hall and A block were completed. This was a unique event, not only in the history of the school itself, but also in the history of education in Dunedin; KVHS was the first co-educational and multi-course school of its kind in Otago. Instead of being a single, large multi-storeyed building, it had been based on the relatively new cluster principle, where the classrooms were grouped in several single-story blocks.
In the 1990s one of the most significant developments in the history of the school was the amalgamation of KVHS and Kenmure Intermediate School to form Kaikorai Valley College, one of the country's first urban based, non integrated, co-educational Year 7 to 13 colleges. The merger included an exciting refurbishment of C block as a dedicated homeroom base for the younger students and their staff. The Minister of Education, Wyatt Creech, officially launched Kaikorai Valley College on 4 June, 1997, following a formal welcome to the school.
Major recent building developments have included the construction of a new, full sized gymnasium in 2006, which is often used by the All Blacks for pre-test training purposes; a custom designed, special needs facility, named the Helen Brathwaite Centre; and a spacious, modern administration and reception area, which was officially opened by the Prime Minister, John Key, in November 2012.

Now reading: How to Limit Screentime and Live More Mindfully
How to Limit Screentime and Live More Mindfully
If you've ever opened Instagram, blinked, then realized two hours had somehow passed, you're not alone. The addictive nature of technology is one of the stresses of modernity, and it's common for people to seek out strategies for decreasing their screen time.
You came to the right place—we've collected a few no-shame, actionable ways that will help you lower your dependence on your devices and set reasonable boundaries for what you do with them. And yes, we know you're likely reading this on a screen, so here's something easy to start: Give yourself a quick break by closing your eyes, taking a deep breath, and counting to 10.

Breakin' it down: some data on screen time
People spend an average of more than three hours daily on just their computers, tablets, or phones. And this dependence on devices has true, lasting consequences, starting from youth. In fact, excessive screen time can stunt a child's development, according to a recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association Pediatrics. Lovely. It's no walk in the park for adults either.
"Too much screen time runs the risk of a myriad of ill effects," says Craig N. Sawchuk, a psychologist at the Mayo Clinic. "From a raw physical standpoint, excess screen time fosters a more sedentary lifestyle, which is a risk factor for a variety of chronic illnesses, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes."
So, simply "being on" can make you feel constantly stressed, and the diagnosis isn't much better for your emotional well-being. For example, getting caught up in unrealistic comparisons while browsing social media may cause you to feel sad or depressed. Cyber-bullying and other forms of harassment can be harmful, too, and many people find themselves becoming more irritable as they spend more time in front of screens. You may also feel overwhelmed by responsibilities, or lose sleep, Sawchuk says.
"Depending on the individual, some folks become more emotionally blunted, so that their range of emotional expression, both positive and negative, actually can become narrowed," he says.
The problems may not stop there, as cognitive and social issues may also arise. Too much screen time may lower your attention span, hurt your ability to make decisions, and restrict how you process emotions, Sawchuk says.
"On the one hand, we have a borderless way that we can stay more connected with others, such as family members and friends living in other parts of the country or the world. That can be a huge plus," Sawchuk says. "However, on the other hand, there is a risk for losing social stamina."
Essentially, constantly interacting with people virtually may make it harder to interact face-to-face. Some people find it difficult to actually answer the phone when it rings or ask for help in person—just a couple possible consequences of the loss of social stamina, Sawchuk explains. Not to mention the fact that if screens are distracting you from spending time with friends and family, those relationships may suffer.

To cut down on screen time, balance is key
Sawchuk says it well: "Tech is an inevitable part of our lives. The goal is not to get rid of screens, rather, learn how to use them in balance."
It's best to start early and set reasonable limitations with teens and adolescents. For parents, that means setting rules for screen time and leading by example. So if you request that your kiddos don't use phones at dinnertime, you can't be scrolling through your device either.
Dr. Howard Liu, chair of the University of Nebraska Medical Center's psychiatry department, advises against letting children have devices or screens in their bedrooms after a certain time—9 p.m. is common.
"Shutting off the wireless at that time or physically collecting the phone or device is the most effective remedy to late-night use," he says.
Relatedly, studies show unrestricted screen time prior to bed negatively affects sleep quality and duration. To combat this, stop using all electronics (phones, tablets, TVs—you heard us) about an hour before your targeted bedtime, Sawchuk says.
"This can be quite challenging for most people, but it allows the brain to settle down and get into a better rhythm for its sleep-wake cycle, he explains. "Keep the electronics out of the bedroom. Our bedroom should be the one place in our home that can allow us to decompress fully."
From a more general, non-parental perspective, it's helpful to truly monitor one's screen time.
"It's human nature to underestimate how much time we spend online or plugged in." Sawchuk says. Follow his advice: Take a week to self-monitor—don't change your behavior, just use it as an opportunity to learn about your actual screen usage. Maybe try to predict your average daily screen time and see how close you are. "Self-monitoring in and of itself can sometimes be a powerful motivator for change," he explains.
The next step is to actually set limits on your screen time. "This can be hard to do, as we tend to not have a parole officer setting and enforcing limits on us, so it takes personal commitment to do so," Sawchuk says.
He also recommends creating a plan for how to spend your newfound free time, which will help ensure you stay away from your screens and, hopefully, set yourself up for long term success. Such a plan could include a list of tasks that are important to you.
"Ask yourself if you have the time and energy in a given day to cultivate those things," Sawchuk says. After all, investing time and energy into screens means you have less time to partake in other activities you care about.
It's important to note that screen time can be both individual and social. So, try to find a balance between the two. Spending time with others in front of screens (like watching your favorite shows) may help offset or slow down some of the harmful effects of solo screen time, Sawchuk says. So consider that, too, when setting personal and household goals for screen time.
Rather than attempting to outright ban screens, Liu encourages parents to learn with and lead their children.
"There is no closing of Pandora's box," he says. "Screen time and social media are here to stay."
That means proactively talking about digital citizenship and asking your child about the screen use habits of their peers. If you have concerns about excessive screen time and rules aren't working, Liu recommends finding a good child therapist to develop a behavior plan. The American Academy of Pediatrics, for example, has a set of resources to help parents develop a family media plan in Spanish or English. The Mayo Clinic also offers resources, such as this guide.
Ultimately, using technology and staring at screens aren't bad acts on their own. But in our increasingly digitized world, it's important to appropriately balance our time with devices with personal and social needs for a full, satisfying lifestyle.

Andrew Garfield has hung up his superhero suit and will no longer play the role of Spider-Man, according to new reports. The actor, who has starred as the much-loved Peter Parker in two of the Spider-Man films, has allegedly been dropped by producers and his role recast. The announcement was made by Linda Ge, a reporter for film magazine The Wrap, who took to Twitter to post: "CONFIRMED: Andrew Garfield is NO LONGER Spider-Man. Someone new will be cast. First appearance in MCU, then solo film." The news comes after a partnership between rivals Sony and Marvel was made.

North Korea blasts U.S. for 'hostility,' sanctions
Katharine Lackey
North Korea lashed out at the U.S. on Sunday for imposing new sanctions in retaliation for its suspected role in the cyberattack against Sony Pictures, saying the move shows the White House's "inveterate repugnancy and hostility" toward the nation.
In a statement carried on the state-run Korean Central News Agency, a spokesman for the foreign ministry again denied the nation was behind the attack, largely seen as a response to Sony's The Interview, a satirical comedy involving a plot to assassinate North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
The reclusive nation accused Sony of producing a "disgusting movie openly agitating terrorism against a sovereign state." It also claimed the U.S. is "kicking off a noisy anti-DPRK campaign, deliberately linking the 'cyber terror' with the DPRK," referring to North Korea's official name, Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
"The U.S. anti-DPRK hostile act ... is aimed to save its face and tarnish the image of the DPRK in the international arena at any cost," the statement said.
Obama signed an executive order Friday for the new sanctions citing "the provocative, destabilizing, and repressive actions and policies of the Government of North Korea, including its destructive, coercive cyber-related actions during November and December 2014."
The new measures come on top of previous sanctions designed to punish North Korea over its nuclear weapons program. Indeed, three of the North Korean entities sanctioned Friday were already on the Treasury Department sanctions list. Ten individuals — including North Korean agents operating in Namibia, Russia, Iran, Syria and China — were added to the list.
In its statement Sunday, North Korea said the sanctions have not weakened the nation or its military and are counterproductive.
"The policy persistently pursued by the U.S. to stifle the DPRK, groundlessly stirring up bad blood towards it would only harden its will and resolution to defend the sovereignty of the country, the dignity of the nation."

Alessandro Federico Petricone Jr., född 29 februari 1936, död 18 juli 2015, professionellt känd som Alex Rocco, var en amerikansk skådespelare. Han spelade ofta roller som skurk, och är mest känd för sin skildring av Moe Greene i filmen Gudfadern.

Biografi
Rocco föddes som Alessandro Federico Petricone, Jr., i Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1936, men växte upp i närliggande Somerville.

Enligt gangstern Vincent Teresa var Petricone en anhängare till Winter Hill Gang i Bostonområdet. I början av september 1961 hyrde Petricone en stuga på Salisbury Beach tillsammans med en vän i Winter Hill Gang och deras vän, Charlestowngangstern George McLaughlin, för en fest under Labor Day. Under kvällen hamnade McLaughlin i bråk med medlemmarna i Winter Hill Gang, då han försökt tafsa på Petricones flickvän. McLaughlin misshandlades medvetslös, och dumpades vid ett sjukhus i närheten. Händelsen trappades upp till ett gängkrig bland irländska gäng i Boston. Då McLaughlin mördats, skickades Petricone skickades till Kalifornien av Winter Hill Gang bossen James McLean för att hålla sig borta från gängkriget.

Han arbetade först som bartender i Santa Monica, Kalifornien, och tog skådespelarkurser av skådespelaren Leonard Nimoy. Nimoy imponerades inte av Roccos påtagliga Bostondialekt, och sade till honom att ta tallektioner. Rocco följde Nimoys råd, och efter att ha befriat sig från dialekten, tog han ytterligare lektioner av Nimoy och Jeff Corey.

Han bytte senare namn till Alex Rocco.

Karriär
En av Roccos första roller var som kasinoägaren Moe Greene i filmen Gudfadern. Andra anmärkningsvärda filmer där Rocco medverkade inkluderade Bröllopsfixaren som Salvatore, och i Smokin 'Aces . I filmen That Thing You Do!, spelade Rocco Sol Siler, grundaren av Playtone Records.

Rocco medverkade även i flertalet avsnitt av The Simpsons.

Privatliv och död
Efter att ha flyttat till Los Angeles blev Rocco medlem i Bahá'í Faith, och han medverkade i ett antal produktioner relaterade till religionen genom åren. Han tackade också Bahá'u'lláh, profeten grundaren av Bahá'í -tron i ett tacktal på Emmy Awards.

Alex Rocco dog den 18 juli 2015 av bukspottskörtelcancer i Studio City, Los Angeles, 79 år gammal.

Ask Shila: Introducing Shila
Are you in pain? Do you need recommendations on stretching? Does something need strengthening? Well...Ask Shila!
Shila Tirabassi, a native of St. Petersburg, Florida received her BFA from The Juilliard School in New York City. Upon graduation she spent 12 years dancing professionally with Merce Cunningham, Martha Graham and Stephen Petronio to name a few. It was during this physically demanding time that she was exposed to many different forms of bodywork worldwide. To supplement her income as an artist, Shila taught yoga and pilates in various studios in New York City during which time she continued her studies in Prenatal Fitness and Restorative Yoga. Her interest in the healing arts led her to do a Thai Yoga Bodywork training. Not fully convinced of its efficacy in treating pain, Shila toyed with the idea of becoming a Physical Therapist as a second career. Instead, circumstances brought her back home to Florida where she owned and operated a small yoga and pilates studio for two years. Knowing she had a leg length inequality, Shila caught wind of Paul St. John and Neurosomatic Therapy and it was during her very first appointment she was instantly hooked. For the first time in 18 years she felt that someone could finally give her answers to all the imbalances present in her body! It was at that time the Center for Neurosomatic Studies emerged and she became a student of the first class. Shila graduated Valedictorian and is the first among three to bear the title Neurosomatic Specialist. During her coursework at CNS Shila became a Personal Trainer certified by the National Institute of Sports Medicine.

Q: CodeIgniter - Error Number: 1146 (Table doesn't exist after execute a "CREATE TABLE" command) I've posted yesterday an issue with an mySQL update syntax on CodeIgniter in here:
CodeIgniter - MySQL Error 1064 (Update table1 inner join table2(...))
But now after I solved that problem, another one come up. Now the update query doesn't know the new created table. But if I change to a select statement, it works smoothly.
For that reason I've decided to post the full script.
Code:
<?php

$this->load->database();

$query_tbaux='CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS STUDY_LIST_AUX AS (

SELECT DISTINCT p.pat_id, p.pat_custom1 age, p.pat_name,
p.pat_sex, s.study_iuid, p.pat_birthdate, s.accession_no,
s.study_datetime date_s, s.study_desc, s.mods_in_study, s.pk,
c.institution, s.study_block, s.study_urgent,
\'0000-00-00 00:00:00\' AS \'report_date\', \'{null}\' AS \'report_status\',
s.study_tipo,
s.study_src,
s.study_consulta
FROM study s
INNER JOIN patient p ON s.patient_fk = p.pk
INNER JOIN series c ON c.study_fk = s.pk
INNER JOIN rel_users_hosp u ON u.hosp_id = c.institution
WHERE s.study_datetime >= \'2015-04-26 00:00:00\'
AND s.study_datetime <= \'2015-04-30 23:59:59\'
AND s.study_iuid IS NOT NULL
AND u.user_id =  \'admin\'

)';

if ($this->db->query($query_tbaux))
    {
        echo "Q True!

";
        $data = array(
               'STUDY_LIST_AUX.report_date' => "DATE_FORMAT(study_report.report_date,'%Y-%m-%d %h:%i:%s')",
               'STUDY_LIST_AUX.report_status' => 'study_report.report_status',
            );

        $this->db->update('STUDY_LIST_AUX, study_report', $data, array('STUDY_LIST_AUX.study_iuid'=>'study_report.study_iuid'));
    }
    else
        {
            echo "Q False

";
        };

?>

Display/Error:

Q True!
A Database Error Occurred
Error Number: 1146
Table 'pacsdb.STUDY_LIST_AUX,' doesn't exist
UPDATE STUDY_LIST_AUX, study_report SET
STUDY_LIST_AUX.report_date =
'DATE_FORMAT(study_report.report_date,\'%Y-%m-%d %h:%i:%s\')',
STUDY_LIST_AUX.report_status = 'study_report.report_status' WHERE
STUDY_LIST_AUX.study_iuid = 'study_report.study_iuid'

I've checked phpmyadmin after refresh the page and the table really exists and it contains the data from the select statement.Can you please tell me what mistake I did?

A: This may cause you real problem.Remove ,study_report
after your table name.Try it
$this->db-
>update('STUDY_LIST_AUX',
$data,
 array('STUDY_LIST_AUX.study_iuid'=>
'study_report.study_iuid'));

A: Pay closer attention.

Table 'pacsdb.STUDY_LIST_AUX,'

See that comma at the end? That should not be there. The error message is right.

A: The solution was more simple than it looks.
$query_update = "UPDATE STUDY_LIST_AUX
        INNER JOIN study_report
        SET STUDY_LIST_AUX.report_date = DATE_FORMAT(study_report.report_date,'%Y-%m-%d %h:%i:%s'), STUDY_LIST_AUX.report_status = study_report.report_status
        WHERE STUDY_LIST_AUX.study_iuid = study_report.study_iuid";

$this->db->query($query_update);

It seems to be a issue with the CodeIgnigter Framework on the update integrated function ($this->db->update(...)). It doesn't work with sub queries, and the best solution goes for using the normal query execution function ($this->db->update($query))
Anyway, thanks for the help ;) All your answers were very helpful in a way to get to this solution.

Kasma was toasting dried chili peppers when we walked in. Our last and final cooking class was all about noodles and ground roasted chili peppers are one of the ingredients in most as well as the preferred condiment. Yes I'd like some chili with my chilis please! Before we got cooking, Kasma spent quite a bit of time describing the history of street food in Thailand, which is not really traditional cuisine as it emerged in the mid 20th century as a result of an influx of immigrants and the economies of war. Vendors selling panfried noodles cooked along the street have become an indelible part of the culture and food of Thailand. Noodles and rice form the basis and the single most important thing I learned in this class was how to cook perfectly steamed rice!
This is the above bunch of toasted peppers after a good whirring through the food processor. Of course she includes everything, seeds and all.
I have never cooked with these types of noodles before so I found this class to be very informative. I always see the stacks of fresh rice noodles in the shrink wrapped Styrofoam containers on the counters of all the markets in Chinatown. Kasma said you have to separate the noodles, definitely before you put them in the refrigerator (if you plan to cook them later), or freezer. She said that these types of noodles are best fresh and that you have to let them come to room temperature to soften before you cook them. It was a lot of work separating the noodles, which are coated with oil and very delicate. I love these thick rice noodles though so it was very interesting to see what is involved with transforming them into the noodles dishes that I crave.
First she mixed the noodles with black soy sauce (semi-sweet) in a bowl, while heating the wok up until it smokes. Then she threw in a few generous swigs of peanut oil and spread the fresh noodles out to expose them to the the hot metal. She said it was very important to let them panfry until the noodles were blistered properly and their texture was just the right kind of sticky and clumpy. She took them out and set them side on a plate.
She stirfried vegetables, then added chicken and a variety of soy sauces (light soy sauce, black soy sauce, fermented soybean sauce) made them into a garlicky sauce thickened with tapioca powder.
This is one of those dishes that you have to eat right away because the noodles are soo good while they are still chewy and blistered from their pan frying in the wok. The sauce will make them get soggy quickly, so we all slurped up the molten good stuff.
She encouraged us to sprinkle with the dried chile peppers, claiming they weren't as hot as the fresh ones. But they were still pretty spicy! It set some of us wheezing and coughing with tears in our eyes… still amateurs after a month of doggedly trying to expand our tolerance to pain.
For the Pad Thai she basically did the same panfry technique with the noodles to get them blistered, then she moved them over to the side of the wok off of the direct heat and cracked in some eggs which she proceeded to scramble.
She said you have to cook the eggs separately like this, first cooking then mixing it up, or the eggs will disappear into the sauce. I felt in awe of the multi-tasking going on with the wok. You think that a one-pot dish is a simple affair, but it requires discipline, timing and technique in order for it to turn out right. I have not had the best results cooking in a wok, but after watching Kasma, I am inspired to learn!
She quickly threw in ingredient after ingredient, cooking and tasting, showing us along the way to creating everyone's favorite Thai noodle dish. We learned how to make it without ketchup! This was the best dish of noodles I have ever eaten – hot off the wok and the textures were perfect (get the recipe here). We didn't learn my personal favorite panfried Thai noodle dish Pad See Ew, but Chez Pim has a wonderful and very detailed tutorial with lots of good pictures here. After all of this noodling, I'm inspired to give it a try!
And of course Kasma used copious amounts of the ground dried chile peppers and passed around the fresh sliced chili in vinegar for those who wanted an extra kick. She served these trimmed green onions that had been soaking in water in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, saying that the pungent bite is removed by the soaking and that it is very refreshing to eat with the noodles as it cuts the grease.
Spicy Garlic Noodles (Bamee Haeng) is made with an entire head of garlic that is coarsely chopped, then fried in oil, and thoroughly tossed with preserved tianjin vegetables, green onion, beansprouts, cilantro and peanuts and egg noodles. She said you can use char siu (barbecue pork or chicken, or roast duck) that can be picked up at a Chinese market, or shrimp or crab or tofu – anything you like!
We made a Cucumber Salad with shallots, serrano peppers and cilantro in a light dressing of vinegar, lime juice, fish sauce and a little sugar. This was light and refreshing with all of the garlicky noodles.
Kasma also showed us how to make Thai Iced Tea and Iced Coffee using cloth strainers that was more effort than I know I will ever put forth, definitely something I look forward to enjoying in restaurants… All of the meals we ate at Kasma's were delicious beyond description and I hope to continue with the intermediate class one day…. In the meantime I have a lot of cooking skills and tolerance to chilis that I need to develop and really want to explore stir frying on a wok. I know that my sad little electric stovetop will never end with the same results as Kasma's 10K BTU gas range, but I'm thinking about asking Santa for this outdoor wok, anyone have any opinions on this gadget?
Read about the first classes here and the second installment on garlicky fried things here.
What delightful food! Those dishes make me hungry!
Use the flame thrower from a turkey fryer if you have one. Just nail together an elevated 3 foot wooden base to prop it up to cooking level(you need to create a 3-sided wind deflector) Don't use a non-stick wok on this.. don't ask me how I found out 🙁 !!!
petey, you make it sound so easy. I've heard that non-stick woks are not good, and I'll take your word for it.
Wow. Are those chili peppers seriously hot? I wonder how hot the food noodle could be.


Because the other movie ends on the input after the boss falls in the lava.
#54201724760305321 - SNES Super Mario World: 2 Player Coop Quest "small only, all normal levels"
And guess what? It's a MINUTE faster than the cancelled submission!
Currently making the submission text, as well as a userfile that ends input on the save dialog, like the un-optimized submission.
I got a benchmark run from a user on the TASVideos discord of 4:46.
I'm trying to improve my previous userfile.
7 sec IGT (~420 frames) improvement from this userfile!
EDIT: GitHub repo for all the tests and such.
I have done 3 TASes of this game in the past couple of days, and I have to say, this one is the most optimized. Using tricks I learned from here, and with help from a bunch of people from the TASVideos discord for helping me, I was able to absolutely DESTROY my previous TAS.
Still, this isn't optimal as to TASVidoes standards. Still room for improvement and that's why I put it under "rough draft".
A TAS of the japanese version of Super Mario World I am currently working on. It's pretty fast, although not as fast as some extremely experienced TASers. Created using Bizhawk 2.3 with the Virtual Pad feature.

#46221611370852647 - SMW "fastest glitched sound"
My entry to the framewar!
JUMP is a Super Mario World hack.
Reupload because the other one has been lost in the masses and I got no feedback.
This is a BizHawk movie (bk2 format) that syncs.
It's 1 frame longer due to how BizHawk and lsnes apply the input, but there's no difference in emulation.
A lot of people have appreciated Mario for being a hero after a lot of SMW "11-exit" TASes where the cape and/or Yoshi are used. So, Mario thinks he can do it with style also without cape or Yoshi.
Originally, this is intended to be an improvement run over Vitor I.S (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8eDZko7Iu8). So far, there are not too many major improvements over this. Now on Front Door.
Iggy: Using 6/5 trick to keep speed in the first section. Included more entertainment and not collected flower in second room.
Because it even works on BizHawk!
This is the Snes9x movie translated into lsnes format, made in order to compare better and maybe for console verification.
Length 1:14:58.858 (270376 frames), around 21 seconds slower than Snes9x's wrong time.
If it desyncs for you, please PM me.
Length: 1:18:33.954 (283303 frames), around 10 seconds slower than Snes9x's wrong time.
This is a lsmv movie (for lsnes emulator) with the correct time (10:00.162) of this classic TAS. Console verification should be easy this way!
Edit: there's a warning about the movie starting from a dirty SRAM. However, this SRAM is a null file. Therefore, there'll be no desync. This internal SRAM can be removed as well.
I was just spitting the null sprite from random places when this happened.
EDIT 2: This the movie file and the anchor savestate file, Lsnes can work like that. Go to File > Load > Movie and select this file. After that, go to File > Load > State and select this file again, so the anchor state will be loaded.
Playing this movie from the beginning will result in a desync, because I used some cheats in Yoshi Island 2. Those cheats, however, have no influence in Yoshi Island 3.
#19801743169012966 - [SNES] Super Mario World TAS "Playaround"
In this TAS I go to YI1 first in order to get the fire flower. Next I play the switch palace and then go back down to YI2. I play through and get to YI3 and do the powerup increment glitch a bunch in order to get mario all weird. Next I play through until Iggy's Castle in which I hit the item box which looks like a flower but is actually a cape because of mario's powerup status and I may or may not have found a new glitch where you can kill yourself from flying during the Iggy fight.
that is just a proof that the "credits glitch" in SMW works on near-console emulators.


Chichester bestows a rare honour on Wednesday, September 30, when the bells of the Cathedral will ring out in a peal created in memory of the late Richard and Barbara Mosse, well-known public figures in the city.
Richard, a solicitor, died in 2011; Barbara, a law lecturer, in 2014.

PGA TOUR Golf and Best Fan Experience Make WinCo Foods Portland Open a Can't Miss Event
WinCo Foods Executives, Lagardere Sports Executives, members of the media and former PGA TOUR player Casey Martin were all in attendance today at Media Day for the sixth annual WinCo Foods Portland Open presented by Kraft Heinz. Voted the 2018 Tournament of the Year on the Korn Ferry Tour the WinCo Foods Portland Open marks the finale of the 24- event Korn Ferry Tour regular season where 25 PGA TOUR cards are awarded on Sunday as pro's compete on the famed Witch Hollow course at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club, August 8-11.
Special guest Casey Martin, current head coach of the University of Oregon Golf Team (2016 National Champions) joined Lagardere Sports executive, Jeff Sanders on stage for an exclusive interview for guests and media in attendance. Martin, a former PGA TOUR player and Eugene, Oregon native, has inspired people around the sports world to achieve greatness in their sport regardless of obstacles.
Along with his impressive golf resume, Martin has built an equally impressive resume as a coach. Since taking the job at the University of Oregon, Martin has fostered a National Championship (2016) and coached his players to tremendous individual success including two Jack Nicklaus Award winners, one Fred Haskins Award winner, three Pac-12 Golfer of the Year winners, 21 all-pac-12 players and 16 regional honorees. These team and individual achievements garnered him National Coach of the Year in 2017 and two-time Pac-12 Coach of the Year in 2010 and 2017.
Martin's success as a coach has also gone beyond the college ranks as his recent players have gone on to immediate success on both the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA TOUR, most notably PGA TOUR winner Aaron Wise (2018 AT&T Byron Nelson Champion) and 2018 Korn Ferry Tour graduate Wyndham Clark who finished T5 at the PGA TOUR 3M Championship this past weekend.
"Wise was amazing from the moment he stepped on campus. He has this air of confidence that is very unique," said Martin. "He has a lot of internal belief in his skills and abilities and it's a huge part of his success."
"Wyndham has the prototypical game that you covet. He hits it long and he can putt and chip like you can't believe. Wyndham has an incredible work ethic and he's a grinder. He's going to be a winner on the [PGA TOUR]."
Martin also had a lot to say about the talent that has flooded the Korn Ferry Tour over the last several seasons. "The game is changing. It is becoming more athletic and these young guys are made for it. Week to week, I'm not sure the best players on the [PGA TOUR] would make the cut at the Portland Open. These guys are fearless, and they can putt like crazy."
As the Korn Ferry Tour season approaches its peak next month at the WinCo Foods Portland Open, the field of great golfers has never been as strong. Recent Stanford University Alum, Maverick McNealy, is one such highly touted player winning pac-12 Player of the Year honors (2016) and was the world's top ranked Amateur in 2017 before turning pro.
Other top players include University of Alabama alum Robby Shelton (ranked #2 on the Korn Ferry Tour) who notched two wins so far this season and University of Texas alum Scottie Scheffler (#3 on the Korn Ferry Tour) who has one win and two runner-up finishes. Fighting for his place in the field is University of Oregon alum, Norman Xiong, one of Casey Martin's pupils and the Jack Nicklaus and Fred Haskins award winner in 2018.
The WinCo Foods Portland Open presented by Kraft Heinz will be broadcast globally live on Golf Channel all four days. The professionals will compete for a purse of $800,000, the largest of the 2019 regular season, with the winner receiving $144,000.
From Portland to PGA TOUR
In just the first five years of the WinCo Foods Portland Open there have been 54 PGA TOUR wins by players who earned their PGA TOUR cards here in Portland. The most recent winner was Nate Lashley who won the Rocket Mortgage Classic in wire to wire fashion with a 25-under par performance to win by 6 strokes.
Players who have received their cards at the WinCo Foods Portland Open in the past include PGA Championship winner and 2017 PGA TOUR Player of the Year winner Justin Thomas, 2017 PLAYERS Champion Si Woo Kim (youngest player to win THE PLAYERS Championship), 2017 TOUR Championship winner and Rookie of the Year Xander Schauffele, and PGA TOUR winner and University of Oregon alum Aaron Wise.
Players compete throughout the season on the Korn Ferry Tour for position on the Points List with the top-25 ranked players receiving their PGA TOUR card on the 18th green of Witch Hollow.
Last year's tournament featured the 2018 Korn Ferry Tour Player of the Year Sungjae Im. The 20-year-old South Korean native put a bow on his 2018 season dominance with a victory at the WinCo Foods Portland Open. After starting the season with a win at The Bahamas Great Exuma Classic at Sandals Emerald Bay in January, followed by 3 runner-up finishes, Sungjae Im was primed for another victory. Shooting four stellar rounds in the 60's and a Thursday low of 65, Im finished Sunday with a score of 18-under par.
Second place finisher John Chin kept it close throughout the tournament closing with a 5-under, 66 in the final round making a Sunday surge on the back 9. Im withstood the barrage of birdies from Chin and came away with the victory. Im's record breaking 2018 campaign concluded at the WinCo Open as the only wire-to-wire money leader in Tour history as well as being named the Korn Ferry Tour's Player of the Year.
All Fore Charity
While the action on the course was as exciting as we have seen, the most important score was not on the leaderboard. The WinCo Foods Portland Open broke its own record for the second consecutive year raising $1,425,00 for charity. Since the tournament's inception in 2014 it has raised nearly $6 MILLION for charity.
WinCo Foods has committed to give 100% of all ticket sales to deserving local charities and youth organizations. More than 100 local non-profit organizations are currently selling tickets and keeping 100% of the revenue from their sales through the Nabisco TICKETS Fore CHARITY™ program. Tickets are $15 for any one day or $25 for the entire week. One of the best ticket values in Oregon sporting events held annually. Parking is again free all week and kids 17-and-under are again admitted free all week.
All-new BMW Fan Deck Adds More Fun for Fans
Along with a number of special events and fan enhancements that will be available for all spectators attending the WinCo Foods Portland Open, the tournament announced the opening of the new BMW Fan Deck presented by NBC Sports Northwest. The on-course hospitality venue will be located on the par-3, 12th hole where fans can enjoy great views of the exciting golf action.
