While the wars of the Big Ten vs. SEC has been typically settled in the bowl games, this year is a little different. We are seeing 4 match-ups between the Big Ten and the PAC-12. Starting with the Foster Farms Bowl between Purdue and Arizona.
Again, people may say "ho-hum" to this game as Purdue snuck in at 6-6 while Arizona went 7-5. However, for both bases after last year (and for 4 years for Purdue), seeing a bowl game, any bowl game is thrilling. Neither one was slated to even make a bowl and Purdue had really been the Big Ten's doormat for the last few years. So in this case, both teams should be happy to end the season on a positive note.
Arizona after going an abysmal 3-9 under Rich Rodriguez where he probably was close to being let go, turned it around and went 7-5 thanks to an incredibly good running game with an incredibly good running quarterback. The Wildcats ranked #3 overall in the nation in rushing and #1 overall in the Power 5 schools in this category. Quarterback Khalil Tate is a key reason why, rushing for over 1,300 yards on the ground. Running back JJ Taylor rushed for nearly 900 yards and with Tate and Taylor, it created havoc on PAC-12 defenses that were more accustomed to the pass. However, the Wildcats, after being ranked in early November, fell off losing 3 of their final 4. games. In those games the Wildcats gave up 42 or more. Meaning, the defense got shredded big time.
Purdue went 6-6, but it is their first bowl appearance in 4 years after the program had been pretty much been flatlined with poor recruiting, a coach in over his head, and just lack of talent all around. Jeff Brohm came over from Western Kentucky somewhat under the radar. Many expected Purdue to at least be improved moving the ball on offense with Brohm's offensive mind and the defense giving up some plays. Instead it was reversed. Purdue's defense kept them in games that perhaps in previous years would let get away from it. The defense kept the Boilermakers in most games and of all things could have gone 9-3 this season. It was just the offense just never gained much consistency.
So, who can leave Northern California with the win?
1. THEY CAN RUN THE BALL ON PURDUE'S DEFENSE: Purdue ranked 30th against the run, giving up 133 yards on the ground. Arizona has to break the Boilermakers run defense in order for them to win. It also means it will keep the Boilermakers out of rhythm as well.
2. THEY SLOW DOWN PURDUE'S PASSING OFFENSE: The Wildcats ranked near the bottom of the nation in pass defense, and probably a massive reason why they slumped down the stretch. If they can recover on a middle-of-the-road passing group, it will help tremendously. If they can't there will be problems.
3. THEY MAKE KEY STOPS: Purdue won't be mistaken for any PAC-12 offense. But they did get a little better by the end so you have to think there is some momentum heading into the Bowl game. If Arizona struggles to make the stops needed, they could be in for an actual long game.
1. ELIJAH SINDELAR CAN BE CONSISTENT PASSING: Purdue fans feel if there was better quarterback play by Sindelar and David Blough (who is injured and won't play), they could have been 8-4 or even 9-3. And honestly it is an argument. Sindelar only completed 55% of his passes when he was in the game and that needs to improve agianst a porous Arizona passing defense. If he is consistent, the Boilermakers have a great shot at winning.
2. THE OFFENSE KEEPS A HEALTHY BALANCE OF THE RUN AND THE PASS: Purdue has had difficulty keeping runners healthy this year. Markell Jones when healthy can create problems for anybody and could be a major factor in this game. So Brohm has to use the run to compliment the pass here and keep Tate off the sideline.
3. THEY LEAD IN THE 2ND HALF: Tate hasn't been bad throwing it, but won't be mistaken for Baker Mayfield. If the Boilermakers make Arizona play catch-up and they have to throw, it may mean for an advantage for Purdue, though their passing defense is nothing to write home about. However, the Boilermakers would really benefit from being ahead in this game and avoid Tate running around like crazy.
MY TAKE: This game is an interesting one. The speedy PAC-12 vs. the physical Big Ten. It's hard because I think Arizona has a gaping hole on defense that needs to be addressed. On the other hand, Purdue's inexperience has shown in games where they've been close in 4th quarters and struggles to finish those games off. I think Purdue is ahead of pace under Brohm, but I am not sure if the experience is there for the big games to this point. PREDICTION: ARIZONA 27, PURDUE 20.


Many people take long road trips over the holiday season. In this case, AAA recommends checking the weather report before setting out. Winter storms can occur suddenly and if you're caught in the midst of one and are unprepared the consequences can be treacherous. If you notice poor weather consider postponing your outing for a few hours. Also, make sure the people at your destination are aware of your estimated time of arrival. That way they can contact help if you don't arrive.
When there is snow on the road your best bet is to drive slowly, even if you must go under the posted speed limit. Snow and ice can make stopping far more difficult and if you speed you face a greater risk of skidding. When going up hills, build inertia before the incline as opposed to pressing the gas while traveling upwards. Also, accelerate and decelerate at a reasonable pace.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also suggests having your car checked out before taking any long trips. This will prevent breakdowns from occurring, which can be deadly if you're stranded in cold weather without assistance. Have fluid levels checked and ask your mechanic to look for any worn components so they can be replaced.

Q: Is there a way for my users to be instantly logged in on a website with their computer/AD account? I'm building a Laravel website for the employees at the company I work at, but one of the requirements is that the users shouldn't have to fill in any credentials to log in, this means instant login when navigating to the website.
Right now I'm using an oauth package that lets them login with their Office365 email, they only have to use their email the first time they visit the website, but this isn't good enough to meet the requirements.
Does anyone know how to do this or a package I can use for this? Thank you in advance!

A: If you're in an exclusively windows enviroment, you can use the NTLM protocol with the help of this package: https://packagist.org/packages/jakub-klapka/laravel-windows-auth
But it comes with a few cavorts ...

*

*Only works with Windows.

*The site needs to be hosted using IIS on a windows server.

*The server must be on the same domain as the user.

*Works with Internet Explorer or Edge.  Supposedly you can do this with Chrome and FF but I haven't ever had success.

I haven't tried with Office365 and Azure AD but theoretically it could work. But again, I believe this is only possible if you're a 100% Microsoft shop. Personally, I'd say SSO through O365 is a much better long-term strategy. Support for NTLM seams to be waning, especially as things move into the cloud and IE/Edge continues to looses market share.
Hope that helps!

Q: How to display images in html? I have a working app using the imgur API with python.
from imgurpython import ImgurClient

client_id = '5b786edf274c63c'
client_secret = 'e44e529f76cb43769d7dc15eb47d45fc3836ff2f'

client = ImgurClient(client_id, client_secret)

items = client.subreddit_gallery('rarepuppers')
for item in items:
    print(item.link)

It outputs a set of imgur links. I want to display all those pictures on a webpage.
Does anyone know how I can integrate python to do that in an HTML page?

A: OK, I haven't tested this, but it should work.  The HTML is really basic (but you never mentioned anything about formatting) so give this a shot:
from imgurpython import ImgurClient

client_id = '5b786edf274c63c'
client_secret = 'e44e529f76cb43769d7dc15eb47d45fc3836ff2f'

client = ImgurClient(client_id, client_secret)

items = client.subreddit_gallery('rarepuppers')

htmloutput = open('somename.html', 'w')
htmloutput.write("[html headers here]")
htmloutput.write("")

for item in items:
    print(item.link)

    htmloutput.write('SOME DESCRIPTION
')

htmloutput.write("</body")
htmloutput.close

You can remove the print(item.link) statement in the code above - it's there to give you some comfort that stuff is happening.
I've made a few assumptions:

*

*The item.link returns a string with only the unformatted link.  If it's already in html format, then remove the HTML around item.link in the example above.

*You know how to add an HTML header.  Let me know if you do not.

*This script will create the html file in the folder it's run from.  This is probably not the greatest of ideas.  So adjust the path of the created file appropriately.

Once again, though, if that is a real client secret, you probably want to change it ASAP.


Sometimes when I want to help someone I try hard to offer an insightful solution to the problem they are facing.
Show Up: Just be there. Be physically and emotionally present.
Relax: Fear is contagious. So is relaxed confidence.
These are simple, they are not easy, and sometimes, they are all it takes.

Meet the Oldest Printed Book in the National Library of Israel
From a National Library of Israel Blog Post:
The rapid expansion of printing houses across the known world led to the First Knowledge Revolution. Christian religious books were the most commonly printed literature in the early days of the printing press, but philosophical works and even popular literature found their way onto the presses as well.
European Jews also recognized the advantages of printing. By the 1470s production of Hebrew books in Italy and Spain had begun. In most cases, the editions were relatively limited in quantity. The first books, released in batches of only 200 to 300 copies, were quite expensive.
Source: National Library of Israel
Among the incunabula preserved in the National Library is a copy containing several ancient philosophical texts, all originally composed in the second century CE. It contains essays by Lucius Apuleius Madaurensis, "Hermes Trismegistus" (there was no such author in truth, this was a later given name for an author or multiple authors active in the 2nd-century), and Albinus Platonicus. Printed in the city of Rome by Konrad Sweynheim and Arnold Pannartz (a German pair who had immigrated to Italy) in 1469, this marked the first time that the philosophical texts were printed.
The printing of this book, as according to the colophon (the author or printer note that usually appears at the end of a book), was completed on February 28th, 550 years ago. This precise, recorded date helped us to determine that this is the oldest printed book in the National Library's collection.

Summer volunteering opportunity
Are you ready to commit six weeks to working alongside international development professionals?
International Service is working in partnership with York St John university to offer students from any university a six-week volunteering opportunity.
You can be a part of it.
We are offering placements with our local partners in Ghana, Malawi and Burkina Faso. Check out the specific projects that you could be part of below.
With one of the faster growing economies in the world, Ghana is often seen as a development success story. But development has been uneven: poverty in the Northern Region in Ghana is two to three times higher than in the South.
And with poverty comes a lack of resources, education and understanding. With less money to invest in health, people with health problems often get left to one side.
Read more about our work in Ghana.
Arts and Minds: mental wellbeing through creativity
Mental ill-health is a widespread and significant issue in Ghana. Under-resourced, misunderstood by many and linked with negative traditional beliefs, people suffering with mental ill-health are among the most marginalised in society.
Arts and Minds uses visual arts, including traditional Ghanaian art, to tackle mental ill-health in some of the poorest communities in the Upper East region of Ghana.
The programme focuses on the use of community arts as a tool for change – both for individuals with mental health issues, and to influence public perceptions and understanding.
If you volunteered on the Arts and Minds programme, you would be involved in:
Using Arts sessions as a platform to start conversations around mental ill-health in a safe communal space.
Providing basic mental health patient care support training to community leaders, community workers, care-givers and families making use of arts sessions.
Raising awareness about mental ill-health in the wider community through radio discussions, school sensitisation events and a community art exhibition.
Making sure that mental ill health information resources are available for community members at accessible centres.
The Malawian government has recently begun to focus on investing more money in women and girls. This is a positive step but there are still significant challenges facing people living in poverty.
Children and young people still struggle to access an education, as poverty forces many families to send their children out to work, rather than go to school. And despite being made illegal, child marriage still persists, meaning that many girls are pulled out of school. Meanwhile, discrimination and a lack of appropriate support means that many children with disabilities don't go to school at all.
Read more about our work in Malawi.
We've found that inclusion happens most quickly when inclusion is first demonstrated. Fair Play uses inclusive sports to tackle deep-rooted social stigma and discrimination against people with disabilities. Working alongside local disabled people's organisations and sports committees, our volunteers teach communities the rules and tactics of sports that enable people with disabilities to play alongside able-bodied people on an equal playing field. And by engaging the same number of volunteers with as without disabilities to facilitate the project, Fair Play challenges restrictive and discriminatory attitudes and behaviours without confrontation, breaking down the barriers that prevent people with disabilities from fully engaging in education, work and society.
For more information about Fair Play, click here.
Despite significant development progress across the country, Burkina Faso remains in the bottom 10 countries in the world in the UN Human Development Index, with nearly 45% of the population still living below the poverty line. Added to this, violence against women is normalised and accepted, particularly in rural communities. Cultural norms and patriarchal attitudes to marriage mean that the majority of community members do not perceive violent behaviour, such as wife beating or non-consensual marital sex, to be violence.
The situation for the majority of women in the communities where we are seeking to run this project is that they are largely unaware of their rights, or unable to enforce them, and many women experience pressure from families and communities not to press charges against a violent partner. But with an issue such as gender-based violence, those experiencing violence are not the problem.
Read more about Burkina Faso here.
He Respects
He Respects is a gender equality project using locally-rooted men's groups to inform men about what constitutes violence against women, encourage them to rethink their behaviours and attitudes towards their wives and female relatives, and enable them to become leaders of change in their communities. The project trains local men in rural communities to establish and facilitate interactive discussion groups about women's rights, respect, consent, positive masculinity and shared parenting. The aim of the groups is to foster an environment in which men can reflect on their toxic and damaging behaviours, develop respectful attitudes and change the way in which they conduct themselves at home.
Students indicating a preference to volunteer in Burkina will require a conversational level of French.
Placement Dates
Six weeks: 17 July - 28 August 2019
Make sure you are available three days either side of these dates, as flights can have limited availability during the summer months.
Running an overseas volunteering project costs the charities involved time and money. In order to ensure core funding is directed toward the people and projects that most need it, we ask our volunteers to raise the funds needed to deliver their overseas placements themselves.
Your total fundraising commitment: £1,995
Payable in instalments.
We provide you with:
Accommodation with a local host family
Two meals each day
Pre-departure guidance and support
Face-to-face training at your university
Support at the airport upon arrival and departure
In-country orientation
Debrief at the end of your placement
Regular & emergency support from experienced staff in-country
Not provided:
Our staff are happy to offer guidance on booking flights, arranging vaccinations and obtaining a visa.
Funding Streams
Fundraising is not only a great way to contribute to the cost of your placement, it's an opportunity to raise awareness of the issues you'll be tackling whilst overseas. At International Service, we've supported thousands of volunteers to fundraise for their volunteering placements. Once accepted onto the programme, we'll send you our tips and advice.
Grants and Trusts
With a little research, you'll find countless trusts and foundations offering small grants to young people embarking on overseas volunteering placements. We'll send you the resources to get started.
YSJ Students Only: YSJ Opportunity Fund
YSJ students can apply for a scholarship of up to £500 to volunteer in the UK or overseas with a registered charity. Contact your university for more information.
International Service placements provide an opportunity to engage in meaningful work alongside motivated and experienced local staff members. As we expect you to work hard, we'll make sure you get two days' rest every week and a standard holiday entitlement of 2 days per month.

Q: html name tag array type different ways of naming the element In a project, I have to clone my input elements. I searched in google and found different ways to do this. One way was to create html name tag input array. But the naming convention was different in different sites.  Like,

            <input type="text" class="form-control" name="from_place[]">

            <input type="text" class="form-control" name="from_date[]">

Another way I found was:

            <input type="text" class="form-control" name="bike_servicing[from_place][]">

            <input type="text" class="form-control" name="bike_servicing[from_date][]">

And also like this:

            <input type="text" class="form-control" name="from_places[][from_place]">

            <input type="text" class="form-control" name="from_dates[][from_date]">

What is the meaning of these three different approaches of name tag array syntax? In which case, we have to select which one naming convention or all of these are same?
Reference: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/any-better-way-to-transform-this-html-input-array

A: from_place[], simple array, example :

from_place[0] = 'A',
from_place[1] = 'B',
from_place[2] = 'C'
= from_place = 0 = A
               1 = B
               2 = C

bike_servicing[from_place][], you can store data with `from_place` as the first key and each of them has a unique child key, example :

bike_servicing[from_place][0] = 'A',
bike_servicing[from_place][1] = 'B',
bike_servicing[from_place][2] = 'C'
= bike_servicing = from_place = 0 = 'A'
                              = 1 = 'B'
                              = 2 = 'C'

from_places[][from_place], lets say you can store data with unique key and `from_place` is the name for each key, example :

from_places[1][place] = 'A',
from_places[2][place] = 'B',
from_places[3][place] = 'C'
= from_places = 1st place = 'A'
                2nd place = 'B'
                3rd place = 'C'

Accumulator Tips – 3-4 October
Scottish side Hibernian were surprisingly held to a draw by St.Mirren in the Scottish Championship which unfortunately denied us our winning accumulator last weekend.
Selections from La Liga, Ligue 1 and the English Championship make up the legs in this week's football accumulator on Sportingly Better.
Football Accumulator Tips
Celta Vigo (1.44) v Getafe (7.50); Draw (4.33)
Celta Vigo head into Friday night's game with Getafe erupting with confidence. A 4-1 demolition job of reigning La Liga champions Barcelona capped off a sensational performance. That win currently has them sitting in the final Champions League spot and their fans will be dreaming of clinching a place in Europe's most prestigious competition if they can maintain their levels of performance.
Opponents Getafe have picked up all their points at home in the La Liga and have suffered defeats in all three of their games on the road this season, with defeats to Espanyol, Athletic Bilbao and Atletico Madrid.
They've also lost on four of their last five visits to Celta and the odds are firmly stacked against them for Friday's match.
Accumulator Bet 1
Celta Vigo to win @1.44
Nice (2.10) v Nantes (4.00); Draw (3.10)
Who can stop Nice at the moment is anyone's guess as they've been rampant of late.
They had five points from their opening five Ligue 1 games after slumping to a 1-0 defeat at home to Guingamp but 3-1, 6-1 and 4-1 victories have propelled them up to 7th position. The 6-1 and 4-1 victories came against Bordeaux and St.Etienne respectively who are two of the league's stronger teams.
Nantes put an end to four defeats on the spin with victory at Lille on Tuesday night. The slender 1-0 win was just their fourth league goal of the season and face a side who know how to find the back of the net, as Nice have fired in 20 league goals so far which is the league's highest.
Four out of the last five meetings between these two has ended in draws but Nice look well priced to continue their fine form of late.
Nice to win @2.10
Derby (1.61) v Brentford (5.25); Draw (3.80)
Brentford are one of the few clubs to have already changed managers in the English Football League already and former Everton midfielder, Lee Carsley has taken over at Griffin Park for the remainder of the season but his first game in charge ended in a 2-0 defeat at home to Birmingham City.
Paul Clement hasn't quite lived up to the high expectations at Derby so far, but the former Real Madrid assistant coach will be confident his side can get off to a good start in October this weekend. The Rams have taken 10 points from their last 12 possible and will be determined to extend their unbeaten run against Brentford.
Derby to win @1.61

Dog the Bounty Hunter joins search to find Gabby Petito's fiancé, Brian Laundrie
Law enforcement authorities have conducted massive searches to find Brian Laundrie, who went missing days before Gabby's body was found. Officials say that the suspect left his family's home without his cell phone and wallet, and he was named a person of interest in Gabby's case. As search teams hunt through different areas for Brian, reality TV star Dog the Bounty Hunter is also conducting a search of his own to find him.
Dog the Bounty Hunter or Duane Chapman, was in Florida with his wife, when he decided to take a detour and stop by Brian's parent's house.
"I will find him," Chapman declared. On Saturday, September 25, 2021, Chapman repeatedly banged on the front door of Brian's parents, Christopher and Roberta, but received no answer.
"I need to speak to the father," Chapman said. "I need to ask him where his son is. Is he in there?"
Chapman is confident that he will be able to find Brian and added, "I'm chasing several leads. We've got a lot of leads. I can't tell you more but we are getting leads every ten minutes."
Brian was last seen by his family on September 15, and he was reported missing on September 17. Chapman is confident that he will be able to find Brian before his 24th birthday on November 18. The reality star has set a deadline for himself and wants to find the fugitive in six weeks.
Before Brian left home, he reportedly told his parents that he was going hiking in the Carlton Reserve, which is about five miles away from their house. If he's not there, Chapman believes he might be in the Appalachian mountains, a trail where Brian has camped in the past.
"If there's anywhere out there that looks the hottest, that could be the area," Chapman noted.
While talking about Brian, Chapman also said: "I think he's young enough, not an experienced criminal, but what is his greatest experience? Outdoorsman — that's what he does the best. I don't think he can shoplift, live on the run, live in cheap hotels. On a one to 10 he's probably a six, compared to the outdoorsmen and some of the guys I've captured."
The reason Chapman said he's taking this case up is that he has received a lot of requests to get involved and knows "what the victims feel like." He said, "We had a lot of requests that I get in on this. This is what I do for a living, for 45 years." Chapman said that he's been receiving plenty of tips on his hotline and is urging people to give any helpful information that they may have.


Your diet delivers a lot of nutrients, but sometimes you need a bit more. Top heart doctors share the vitamins, minerals, and other supplements they take daily to stay healthy.
Found naturally in fatty fish (think mackerel, tuna, salmon, and sardines), these healthy fats can reduce the inflammation tied to heart disease—among other benefits. "These healthy fats are not made by the body so you have to get them from food," says Suzanne Steinbaum, DO, attending cardiologist and director of Women's Heart Health program at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. She sometimes falls short of the American Heart Association's (AHA) recommendations that call for eating fish twice a week, so she takes omega 3 supplements daily. If you don't eat fish often, consider having your blood levels tested, she advises. These supplements may also lower the risk of dying after heart failure or a recent heart attack, according to the AHA.
Don't like fish? Check out these omega-3 rich foods for people just like you.
Vitamin D is also known as the sunshine vitamin because the body produces it when skin is exposed to sunlight. The problem? The sunscreen we wear to stave off skin cancer may also prevent vitamin D absorption—and low levels of D are linked to a host of diseases and conditions including heart disease. "I wear tons of sunblock and a big wide-brimmed hat to protect my skin from cancer, so I take 2,000 international units of vitamin D a day to make sure my levels are where that need to be," says Dr. Steinbaum. A simple blood test for vitamin D can tell you where you stand and whether you need supplements. This type of Vitamin D may be twice as effective as the one you're taking.
Garlic does more than ward off vampires and cause bad breath. The flavorful bulb also helps lower blood cholesterol levels and may lower blood pressure and blood sugar, as well. "I started taking Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract a few years back when I received news that I had hypertension," shares cardiologist Matthew Budoff, MD, a professor of Medicine at David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. He takes two garlic pills a day. "I've led multiple studies on the supplement that demonstrated coronary plaque regression and blood pressure lowering effects," he says. "I would recommend it to anyone seeking help with hypertension or early heart disease." Fatty plaques in the coronary arteries are a sign of heart disease.
New York City cardiologist Neica Goldberg, MD, heard about this B vitamin from a manicurist who suggested she take biotin to strengthen her nails. "I take it when I remember, and my nails are stronger for it," says Dr. Goldberg, who prefers to get her nutrients from whole foods as opposed to supplements. Taking biotin supplements is one of 10 ways to make your nails stronger, but there may be a downside when it comes to heart health. The FDA is warning that high doses of biotin in dietary supplements may interfere with hundreds of common lab tests—including the type emergency room doctors use to diagnose a heart attack.
Wear, tear, and advancing age take their toll on our joints and bones: This is why Perry Frankel, MD, a cardiologist in Lake Success, New York, takes glucosamine supplements daily. "It's proven in studies to be good for joints, and in a head-to-head study it beat out certain pain relievers," says Dr. Frankel. "It also helps form new cartilage." These are among the reasons that it tops the list of arthritis home remedies even doctors strongly recommend.
This antioxidant rock star is popular among supplement takers: "Data show that it helps boost your immune system," Dr. Frankel says, which is important for those who work in healthcare settings. Cardiovascular surgeon David A. Greuner MD, FACS, of NYC Surgical Associates, agrees. "I take Vitamin C because of the antioxidant effects, the overall effect on skin maintenance and health, and the fact that I never eat enough fruit," he shares. Vitamin C deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of dying from heart disease, according to a review study in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. What's more, the study suggests that supplementing with C may boost heart health—especially in people with low blood levels of vitamin C.
Here's how to recognize vitamin C deficiency.
Heart surgeon and talk show host Mehmet C. Oz, MD, FACS, also known as Dr. Oz, says multivitamins are the "most essential" supplement to take on a daily basis, and he always practices what he preaches. "Make sure it includes vitamins A, C, D, E, and K, as well as potassium, zinc, and iodine, and it should contain 100 percent of your daily value of most vitamins and minerals," he writes on his website.
Just don't fall for extravagant promises: Nearly half of all multivitamins can't live up to the claims on their labels.

Q: Can Java Web Start be configured to update the current server version instead of the latest? Summarizing my research so far it seems as if Java Web Start will use the timestamp provided via a web server to determine whether a certain jar has been updated or not. The update behaviour can be influenced by the jnlp element "update" where elements "check" and "policy" which allow to define how often an update check will be done and whether the user is prompted to confirm the update or not.
However I did not find any opportunity to define another mechanism than the timestamp comparison to determine if an application has been updated or not. Actually we're having a discussion at the moment if it makes more sense (for us) if not the newest, but the current server version should be downloaded to the client. This could also e.g. be an older server version which has been restored on the server, because a formerly active newer server version has been rolled backed.
In case of a server-sided application rollback every user has to manually clear its Java cache at the moment, which is of course possible but not very convenient.
Can Java Web Start be configured/forced to always download the application version from the server if this is "different" from the locally cached version?

A: I don't konw if it exactly meets your need, but have a look at webstart's Version Download Protocol.
To sum  it up:
With versioned download you can specify each jar-version to be used in the jnlp-file like this:
    <jar href="jackson-core.jar" version="2.0.2" />

and deploy your jar-file on the server  with a filename of jackson-core__V2.0.2.jar.
With this protocol webstart will only use jar-files whose version exactly matches the given version from the jnlp-file. Another advantage is, that when the specified version is already present in the local cache webstart will not try to download the version again - regardless of timestamps etc.
Advantages:

*

*Full control over versions used via jnlp-file.

*Less download-requests for jars present in cache

Disadvantages:

*

*New versions require a change in the jnlp-file

*Not suitable for SNAPSHOT-builds since the file's timestamp is completely ignored and version-numbers don't change for SNAPSHOT-builds.

Hybrid Comparo: Ford Fusion vs. Honda Insight vs. Toyota Prius
Road test: 2009 Toyota Venza
Road test: 2005-2006 SUVs
Surprise winner
by Clare Dear	 | August 10, 2011
2010 Toyota Prius Handout
Kingston, Ont.: Few will argue Toyota is the benchmark automaker fordriving green. Its hybrid system is a technology the rest of theindustry has been chasing for more than a decade. For much of thatperiod, Toyota's status as the green leader has been largelyunchallenged. True, the Jetsons-style, two-seater Insight from Hondadid give hybrid buyers an early option, but Toyota's Prius was theclear choice for most. In fact, the company has sold more than amillion of these gas sippers.
More recently, however, hybridchoices have grown, with several automakers going green, eitherdeveloping their own systems or buying the technology from Toyota.There's no doubt the competition has heated up and consumers now havean array of hybrid models from compact sedans to luxury SUVs and trucksto consider. The prime segment, however, is family sedans, and this iswhy I'm looking at a trio of 2010 contenders — the Ford Fusion Hybrid,Honda Insight and Toyota Prius.
Toyota Prius: Nottypically a company that gets caught looking, Toyota has responded tothe increased hybrid competition with an all-new Prius, which has justhit the streets. This third-generation model moves the industrystandard to a new level by delivering more room, more power, betterfuel efficiency, plus innovative new features to attract buyers.
Visually,the new Prius has been restyled while still retaining the exteriordesign so familiar to consumers. The roof's hump has been shiftedrearward, creating more rear-seat headroom in the cabin. In fact, theinterior is roomier overall, resolving a common complaint about theprevious generation.
The car's exterior has been shaped andmoulded to slip through the air and its 0.25 drag co-efficient is thebest of any mass-produced vehicle in the world. That aerodynamicslipperiness also helps minimize wind noise at highway speeds.
Thegas/electric Hybrid Synergy Drive system has been reworked, with a new,larger 1.8-litre four-cylinder combining with the electric motor toproduce 134 net horsepower — a 22% increase over last year's model.It's also 7% more fuel efficient than previous models, with a cityrating of 3.7 litres per 100 kilometres and 4.0 L/100 km on thehighway. That makes it the most fuel efficient of this trio.
Pricingstarts at $27,500 for the base Prius, with four option packages thatcan boost the final sticker price to $36,565. One of the upgradesincludes a solar-panel roof that powers a fan to discharge hot airwhile the car is parked, reducing the load on the air conditioner oncethe car is started.
Honda Insight: The Insight hasalso started from a clean slate — an all-new product that in many waysmimics the Prius, at least the 2009 iteration.
However, its overall size is smaller than the Prius, with an interior volume is 85 cubic feet, compared with the Prius at 93.7.
The Insight uses a less complex Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) hybrid system.
Unlikethe Prius and Fusion, the electric motor, positioned in line betweenthe 1.3L gas engine and transmission, "assists" during acceleration andhighway cruising, and its capacity to operate exclusively on electricpower is more limited. However, it does feature cylinder deactivationduring deceleration, and the gas engine stops when the car isstationary. Its fuel consumption rating is 4.8 L/100 km in citydriving, 4.5 on the highway.
The Insight's big advantage isaffordability. It's the least expensive hybrid on the market, with astarting price of $23,900 for the base LX edition, $3,600 below thePrius. An upgraded premium model, the EX, lists at $27,500 and includesa navigation system with voice recognition.
It's also more fun todrive, with steering that has more feedback than the Prius's and itshandling characteristics have a more sporty flair. It cannot, however,match the Prius's seamless transition between gas and electric modes –the noticeable shudder when the Insight's gas engine stops and startscan become annoying.
Ford Fusion Hybrid: The Fusionis Ford's response to the Japanese challenge, developing its ownfull-hybrid powertrain and then tucking it inside its popular mid-sizedsedan. The company prefers to compare its Fusion Hybrid to Toyota'sother mid-sized sedan entry, the Camry Hybrid, which actually outsellsthe Prius in Canada. (In the first four months of sales this year, theCamry claimed 22% of the national hybrid market share while Prius wassecond with 18%.)
The Fusion Hybrid is the largest of this triowith an interior volume of 100.3 cu. ft. It also has the mosthorsepower (191) and is a bit more thirsty than the Prius, consuming4.6 L/100 km in the city and 5.4 L/100 km on the highway.
Likethe Prius's engine, the Fusion's 2.5L four-cylinder is set up tooperate on the more efficient Atkinson cycle. As with the other twohybrids, it delivers its power to the front wheels through acontinuously variable transmission (CVT).
The Fusion Hybrid's ride and handling are comparable to its gas-powered siblings — quiet, comfortable and stable.
Pricingstarts at $31,999, with an array of upgrades available, includingleather seat trim ($1,225), voice-activated navigation system ($2,100)and Sony audio system ($400).
Bottom line: Choosingwhich hybrid best suits your needs depends on your priorities. If youare intent on making a statement, such as letting your neighbours knowyou're a cool, tech-savvy person who cares about the environment andwants the world to know it, then the Prius or Insight are the onlyoptions. Both are distinct, conveying a message that you dare to bedifferent. If, however, you simply want a conventional-looking sedanwith plenty of room, but still want to save money at the pump whiledoing your part for the environment, go for the Fusion.

LD: You recently posted AN INTERNET BARD AT LAST!!! (ARS POETICA) on YouTube about your vision of poetry on the internet. You talk about the importance of poets harnessing social media as a powerful way to change the life of someone else, anywhere in the world. Why is it so important for you to share this message at this time?
SR: the importance of sharing this message now is that our whole society is currently struggling to determine the role of these social platforms. corporations are trying to learn how to make money from them, families are trying to learn how to stay connected through them, everyone is asking "what value can there be in a 6-second video?" and it's all moving so fast, Vine blew up to 40 million users in its first 7 months. but the poetry world has largely been ignoring social media, mainly just using twitter and facebook to post links to standard, plain-text poems. my message is this: if our job is to move people with our language, these platforms give us endless and powerful new ways to do that. the tools to make our language visual and auditory have been democratized; the ability to maintain actual relationships with hundreds of our closest readers across the world is now a reality. i have no publisher, i've only been working at this for ~3 years, and my poems reach thousands of people each. i think social media represents the biggest set of new opportunities for poetry since the printing press.

With the Frieze Art Fair now in full swing, London is undeniably where the art world is at. For those not exhausted by art fairs and panel discussions about postinternet art, we encourage you to keep up the (pun intended) pace for the 89plus marathon at the Serpentine on Friday night and all day Saturday. Curated by Ben Vickers, notable vestment-wearing participant in yesterday's "Post-Net Aesthetics" panel organized by Rhizome at the ICA, and forming a part of Hans Ulrich Obrist and Simon Castet's long-term research project of the same name, the marathon focuses on concerns facing the generation born in or after 1989—those "Younger than Rihanna," as Harry Burke put it in an article for Rhizome—who have never known a world without Tim Berners-Lee's world wide web, or with the Berlin Wall.

Scenes from the London 3D Printshow
Matthew Plummer-Fernandez, Digital Natives (2012)
"The internet changed the world in the 1990s, the world is about to change again," read much of the promotional literature for the recent 3D Printshow in London. The commercial exhibitors might have benefited from a far more modest tag line, but the art work exhibited, separate from the main trade section of the show, gave much new to think about regarding the the relationship between technology and craft.
Frederik de Wilde, M1ne IIII (2012)
I was immediately intrigued by the two sculptural objects on display by Frederik de Wilde. The cobalt chrome models had been printed from data gathered from Belgian coal mines. They presented themselves as futuristic objects with a link to Europe's industrial heritage. The representations of the coal mines came to the 3D Printshow as seemingly abstract objects but, were actually formed by a much more political process. It had been a laborious process for de Wilde to get access to the data. He remarked that being granted permission to use a data source as an artist is almost an art form in itself. The Belgian government are protective over the information as the mines contain elements of interest to multinationals and other nations. De Wilde was not permitted in the work to reveal the location of the mines and had to abstract the forms so that interested parties could not gain commercial advantage. The custodians of the data had a large say in what the outcome of the piece would be. This is an intriguing collaborative process if it can be considered as such. The models of the coal mines had been stacked inside each other to create fragile vessels, that also further abstracted the context of the data. The production values of both objects were also noteworthy. I ...

Recently, Digital Sizzle staged a data and art hackathon at Mozilla HQ in London.There were no rules – the only expectation was to share ideas and skills. The hackathon began with a handful of participants pitching ideas. The weekend's aim was to make art but, its context also showcased developers as creative practitioners who are just as engaged in the process of making as artists are. In the end, two themes of opposing approaches defined the weekend: generating data vs. using data sets and material outcomes vs. screen based outcomes. Tonight a selection of the projects will be shown at Whitechapel Gallery...

The Federal Government Continues to Receive Failing Grade on Issue of Free Expression in Canada
CJFE launches Review of Free Expression in Canada on World Press Freedom Day May 2, 2012 (Toronto, ON) – For the third straight year, the federal government received failing grades from Canadian Journalists for Free Expression in a report card on freedom of expression in Canada. The report card, included in the annual Review of Free Expression in Canada, highlights how access to information at the federal level is marred by secrecy and delays – the federal government continues its stonewalling tactics to deter journalists, muzzles scientists from speaking to media about their research, and is failing to do its part to protect our digital rights. Released to coincide with World Press Freedom Day on May 3, 2012, the Review also examines such issues as our relationship with the Internet, media ownership and wiretapping. "A year into the Harper majority we have yet to see changes to federal government behaviour regarding transparency and reform to access to information," said Arnold Amber, CJFE President. "Freedom of expression is continually stifled by restrictions. Our internet freedom in particularly is in jeopardy, as proposed legislation intrudes on our privacy and threatens the free flow of information." Report card grades include: Access to information and the federal government: F •	Bumped up from an F- last year due to a very slight increase in completed federal ATI requests and a slight decrease in the number of requests denied for security reasons, the government's performance is still unacceptable. Canada was ranked 40th out of 89 countries in last year's Global Right to Information Rating, the ATI process is still marred by delays, denials, fees and redactions, and the number of ATI requests denied on security grounds has tripled since 2002–2003. Federal scientists' freedom of expression: F •	Canada's control over the communications of federally funded scientists is alarming. Climate change science coverage in the media has plummeted by 80 per cent since 2007, drastically reducing information available to Canadians. Some scientists have been denied permission to talk to the media about their research even after it was published in peer-reviewed journals. The Supreme Court: B+ •	The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that emergency wiretapping by police without a warrant is unconstitutional and upheld a lower court's ruling that hyperlinking is not the same as publication in alleged cases of libel. Although both decisions were welcomed by free expression advocates, the Supreme Court's decision barring access to records held in cabinet ministers' offices brought down its overall grade. Grades were also assigned to Media Ownership, Federal Protection of Digital Rights and Internet Access, and the Canadian Public. Other topics covered in this year's Review include: •	an overview of the global cyber threat landscape •	the debate over Internet anonymity •	media ownership in Canada •	obstacles faced by Canadian whistleblowers •	online collaborative journalism •	cross-Canada free expression reports •	notable free-expression-related court decisions from the past year The 2011-2012 Review of Free Expression in Canada can be viewed at www.cjfe.org. About Canadian Journalists for Free Expression CJFE boldly champions the free expression rights of journalists and media workers around the world. In Canada, we monitor, defend and promote free expression and access to information. We encourage and support individuals and groups to be vigilant in the protection of their own and others' free expression rights. We are active participants and builders of the global free expression community.

Many sources of data and predictive analytical models (both home grown and available for purchase) exist within and outside our industry. Yet, the data and approach we utilize to set health insurance premium rates for prospective customers has been slow to evolve. Reliance is placed on individuals providing many details regarding their personal health status, often on long paper forms, a process which puts significant burden on insurance agents, employers and employees alike, and which creates a very lengthy application timeline. We believe significant opportunity exists to contemporize the approach to identifying, predicting and pricing future health risks. Humana, in partnership with Spry Labs, has set its sights on improving the risk model by utilizing other novel data sources to produce a proposal and rate quote to customers.
The primary focus of this Data Jam is targeting new commercial group medical business, with a focus on fully-insured empl0yers with 2-99 employees.
This is an industry-wide problem. Resolving this systemic problem would be a game-changer – making agents and employers receive underwritten quotes faster, with less stress, and more predictable ways to price the cost of a new small commercial employer group.
Secures authorization for us to access consumer data and securing it through an electronic, non-invasive means.
Accesses the right type of data which will allow us to underwrite the financial risk of a new customer and produce a confident rate quote.
We are seeking teams with as many of the following talents and experiences as possible. While all are welcome to apply, the following will be closely considered when inviting teams to participate.

Bronchial asthma is characterized by sudden attacks of short, gasping breaths accompanied by wheezing. If the attack is not stopped, the person may have increasing difficulty breathing.
The underlying cause of all asthmatic conditions is increased kapha dosha in the stom?ach. From there it moves into the lungs, trachea, and bronchi. The increased kapha blocks the natural flow of air, creating spasm in the bronchial tree and resulting in asthma and wheezing.
Ayurvedic treatment for asthma aims to bring the kapha lodged in the lungs and bronchi back to the stomach, from which it can be eliminated.
Aller- G formula : 1 capsules twice daily.
Praanrakshak Churna : 1 teaspponful twice daily ( 1 bottle) (Can be mixed with apple juice to mask taste).
Persons suffering from asthma can drink diluted milk by adding a little black pepper powder. Should drink hot water daily. Should avoid intake of fruits at night time. Shall add ginger while preparing tea and have regularly.
Shall add a pinch of asafetida to the curry which is taken along with the meal.
These are spices which are helpful in removing the phlemg and reduce the intensity of wheezing and asthma After using all these herbs for 1 month, We are sure that you will feel the change in your chronic asthma problem. These are the best herbal remedies for asthma described in ancient Ayurveda text and the herbs are recommended by an experienced Ayurveda expert.
Boil I teaspoon of licorice root (yashti madhu) in a cup of water for a couple of minutes to make a licorice tea. Just before drinking the tea, add 5 to 10 drops of mahanarayan oil if you have some, or use '/2 teaspoon of plain ghee.
Take one sip of this tea every 5 to 10 minutes.
In some instances, the licorice tea may induce vomiting. This is beneficial: It elim?inates kapha and relieves the spasm of the bronchial tubes, and the person usually feels better immediately.
You can use this licorice tea not only for emergencies but, if you are prone to develop asthma, every day as a preventive. The only exception is that individuals with hypertension should not use much licorice tea, as it makes the body retain sodium. They may take it as an emergency measure to avert an asthma attack, but they should not drink it regularly.
Note: Prepare the tea as soon as you begin to feel an attack coming on, when there is tightness in the chest, some difficulty breathing, or whatever warning bell symptoms you recognize from past experiences. Don't wait until you are already having serious problems breathing. Once you prepare the tea, it can last for 72 hours and not lose its effectiveness.
Asthma may be brought on by allergies, a cold, congestion, cough, or hay fever. It can be instigated by pollen, dust, animal hair, or various foods, or an increase of kapha inter?nally. Regardless of the cause, during an asthmatic attack it is important to immediately relieve the difficult breathing and asthmatic wheezing.
The following herbal remedies can be taken on a regular basis for long-term prevention of asthma.
Mix 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 tea?spoon trikatu into a cup of boiling water. Let it steep for 10 minutes, and add 1 teaspoon of honey before drinking. You can take this tea twice a day.
A tea made of half licorice and half gin?ger is also beneficial for asthma prevention. Use half a teaspoon of the combined herbs per cupful of water.
Also try 1/2 teaspoon bay leaf and 1/4 tea?spoon Pippali mixed into 1 teaspoon honey, taken 2 or 3 times a day.
Another remedy that can relieve con?gestion and alleviate breathlessness is '/4 cup onion juice with 1 teaspoon honey and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. This remedy will also be effective for immediate relief of asthma.
For immediate relief, take this entire mixture with honey, a little bit at a time. For long-term usage, take it once a day.
You may also find 1/3 cup spinach juice with a pinch of Pippali effective. Drink this twice a day.
Rubbing a little brown mustard oil onto your chest will give some relief.
Make a tea by mixing ground mustard seeds and Pippali (or black pepper if you don't have Pippali). Steep 1/4 teaspoon! each for 10 minutes in 1 cup hot water, then add 1 to 2 teaspoons honey. Drink 2 or 3 times a day, or for better results sip it every 15 minutes throughout the day.
Mix 1 teaspoon of brown mustard oil with 1 teaspoon natural organic sugar Take 2 or 3 times a day on an empty stomach.
In some people the underlying cause of asthmatic wheezing may be an infection descending from the nose and sinuses. If this is the case, putting 5 to 10 drops of warm ghee in each nostril will help.
If your asthma and wheezing are due to a food allergy, then avoid the problematic food. Similarly, avoid any object that may provoke your condition, such as dusty books, moldy basements, and some chemicals.
Avoid most dairy prod?ucts, including all cheeses. Avoid fermented foods and all hydrophilic food substances such as salty items, cucumber, and tuna fish. Some people need to avoid mushrooms, peanuts, walnuts and other nuts, and yeast. The reaction may be immediate, for people extremely sensitive to these substances, or it may take several hours to develop.
Asthma can ordinarily be controlled using these Ayurvedic remedies. However, if you find that medicines that ordinarily help you breathe more comfortably no longer seem to be working, or if, along with your difficulty breathing, you have chest pain, swollen feet, and profuse sweat?ing, and you have a history of heart problems, you need to seek immedi?ate medical attention.
water with 1 teaspoon of honey. This will energize the lungs and should reduce asth?matic wheezing.
Effective yoga asanas to help relieve asthma are the Bow and Cobra poses, sitting in the Vajrasana, and the inverted poses including Shoulder Stand and Plow.

Tribeca '18: The Night Eats the World
It is based on a French novel written by Martin Page under the pen name Pit Agarmen, but it is clearly constructed over the foundation of Richard Matheson's I Am Legend. Sam, a French musician, will barricade himself in a tony apartment when a zombie apocalypse sweeps through Paris, but as he battles loneliness and hunger, he comes to realize he is the freak amid this new world of the feral undead in Dominique Rocher's The Night Eats the World (trailer here), which screens during the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival.
You could argue Sam is fortunate to be shy and have a low tolerance for alcohol, or perhaps the exact opposite. Either way, he survives the initial wave of the zombie outbreak, because he fell asleep in a tucked away back room during his ex-girlfriend's hipster party. Most of the zombies have been there and gone, so he fortifies a particularly nice flat in her building and digs in.
Resigning himself to the new order, Sam does his best to forage for canned goods and clear the other flats of zombies. Much like Robert Neville in I Am Legend, Sam seeks companionship with a pet, but in this case, it is a cat—and Rocher and his co-screenwriters give their relationship a subversive twist. For most of the film, his only company is Alfred, an infected tenant trapped in the building's retro wrought-iron elevator, until the exiled Iranian actress Golshifteh Farahani makes a cameo appearance.
There are so many similarities between Night Eats and I Am Legend, both the novel and its earlier film adaptations, Rocher really should have included some sort of hat-tip, such as a Matheson movie poster. Of course, Neville was fighting vampires in Matheson's source novel, albeit very zombie-like vampires, so Night Eats should be off the hook for any potential litigation. There is also a pronounced Gallic vibe to Rocher's film. For instance, when Sam passes the time by constructing some Rube Goldberg like musical constructions (which actually produces some groovy sounds), the vibe is almost Tati-esque.
As Sam, Anders Danielsen Lie does heroic work, withstanding the rigor and scrutiny that comes with being on-screen nearly every second of the way. One look at his tortured countenance tells us he is a quiet on the outside but roiling on the inside kind of guy. The always striking Farahani is also deeply haunting as the mysterious Sarah. However, the wonderfully eccentric Denis Lavant (Monsieur Oscar from Holy Motors) supplies the film's indelibly memorable and most likely iconic performance as the infected and immobilized Alfred, who just might possibly be lucid at some level deep down in his diseased psyche.
These are real zombies, who are always looking to chomp down on the infected. Rocher's approach is admittedly more stylish and cerebral than many zombie films, but he still embraces the core principles of the genre. Rocher also composes some eerie visuals of the de-populated Parisian neighborhood and the ferocious swarms of zombie masses. Despite a relative paucity of gore, Walking Dead fans should be able to relate and approve. Enthusiastically recommended, Night Eats the World screens again today (4/22), tomorrow (4/23), and Friday (4/27), as part of this year's Tribeca Film Festival.

Sorry, 'Moose Jaws' Will No Longer Feature Jay and Silent Bob
Posted on Monday, June 1st, 2020 by Chris Evangelista
Kevin Smith has a pile of unmade projects he's been talking about for the last several years. One of those is Moose Jaws, a horror-comedy that was supposed to close-out his True North Trilogy, which started with Tusk and continued with Yoga Hosers. Smith hasn't given up on Moose Jaws just yet, but he is ready to make some changes. At one point, Smith's ever-present Jay and Silent Bob were meant to appear in the film, but now the filmmaker says he's going through the script and removing all traces of the duo with the hopes of starting fresh.
Kevin Smith Offers An Update On Horror Film 'Moose Jaws'
Posted on Tuesday, June 5th, 2018 by Chris Evangelista
Remember Moose Jaws? Kevin Smith's never-made third entry in his True North trilogy? The project seemed to be dead, but Smith has offered a new update that indicates Moose Jaws might become a reality.
Kevin Smith Isn't Making Movies for Audiences Anymore, Reveals Crazy Ending to 'Moose Jaws'
Posted on Tuesday, January 26th, 2016 by Ethan Anderton
This past weekend brought the premiere of Kevin Smith's latest effort as writer and director, the absolutely insane Yoga Hosers, at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival. If you want to know just how truly nutty this movie is, check out Peter Sciretta's full review on the movie right here, or watch the clip that was released before the premiere.
Yours truly was curious enough to check out the movie that is like a PG-13 Disney Channel nightmare as only Kevin Smith can deliver, and before and after the film, Smith had a couple interesting things to say about how he's approaching filmmaking now as well as what we can expect from Moose Jaws.

Silent Bob Will Have SHOCKING Role in Kevin Smith's 'Moose Jaws'
Posted on Thursday, September 17th, 2015 by Peter Sciretta
At Comic Con 2014, writer/director Kevin Smith announced that Tusk was actually the first film in what he hopes will be a trilogy of films he called "The True North Trilogy." That film was followed by the PG-13 horror/comedy Yoga Hosers and Smith is prepping the third film, a movie called Moose Jaws which he described as "Jaws, with a moose" to conclude the Canadian-set series.
But Smith has now revealed that his Askewuniverse character Silent Bob will have a role in Moose Jaws, and you will be shocked to learn what that role is. Hit the jump to read Kevin Smith's comments, which probably contain spoilers.
Exclusive: Kevin Smith's 'Hit Somebody' Will Film in Fall 2015, Smith Has Funding for 3 More Projects
Posted on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2014 by Germain Lussier
Say what you will about Kevin Smith's Tusk, but ultimately it was the spark that gave new life to the filmmaker. Just like he did in the '90s, Smith made Tusk kind of on a whim. He and his producer Scott Mosier came up with the idea, Smith wrote it and a few months later it was being shot. Unlike his '90s debut, Smith did have funding this time so it wasn't as down and dirty as Clerks. But the independent spirit was there. And Kevin Smith is now overflowing with movie ideas.
He's got a few more days to shoot on Yoga Hosers, a Tusk spinoff about two 15-year-old girls fighting monsters. After that, he'll finally make the long awaited Clerks III. He's also got preliminary funding to make Moose Jaws, a horror comedy that is basically Jaws with a moose. That'll likely happen after Clerks III.
For Smith fans, though, there's one glaring omission that list: Hit Somebody. Over the past few years, Smith's hockey epic morphed from one film, to two films, to a miniseries and then into oblivion as he got busy with so many other things. But /Film recently talked to the director and he revealed that the producers of Tusk have given him money not only to make Yoga Hosers, Clerks III and Moose Jaws but Hit Somebody as well. And they'll shoot it in Canada during the Fall of 2015.

Kevin Smith Reveals Plans For 'True North Trilogy' Beginning With 'Tusk' [Comic Con 2014]
Posted on Friday, July 25th, 2014 by Germain Lussier
By now, you've probably seen the trailer for Kevin Smith's Tusk. And if not, click here and check it out. Revealed in Smith's annual Hall H panel at Comic-Con, the footage shows a very different Smith from the "snoochie boochies" days of the past. This is a Smith with something messed up to say. And, according to the writer/director/podcaster, he's going to be saying much more of it.
On his panel, Smith also revealed Tusk is the first film in what he hopes will be a trilogy of films he called "The True North Trilogy." Likely a reference to a similar Canadian setting, Tusk would be followed by Yoga Hosers (which Smith wants to make next, and be PG-13) and a new movie called Moose Jaws which he described as "Jaws, with a moose." All three films would return the same actors as Tusk. Read more about the Kevin Smith True North Trilogy below Read More »


Bicycles for Humanity is a global grassroots organization that has delivered over 155,000 bicycles to 200 plus African communities. Our volunteer grassroots model works and we continue to grow. Many people in the developed world want to send bicycles to Africa and support communities with the gift of mobility a bicycle can provide, but they are unsure of how to do it , or how the program wil lbe managed in the developing world. This program is focused on helping everyone understand the process, what is involved in collecting bikes and how to reach out and find community partners to help you achieve your goal of getting a container of 500 bicycles to your community. We strongly recommend that that you also study the Bicycle Empowerment Centre Managers course so that you know that the people of the developing world better understand the entire process on all sides. When all parties understand what is invovled and the various ways to fund the program, than the program will scale globally and everyone will have a great experience.
The demand has been so great for community groups wanting bikes, that we have a back long of over 400 communities in need of containers of bikes. We believe the next growth will come from African communities understanding how the process works in the developed world and how to find groups to send bikes to their communities. The iEmpowerment Entrepreneurprogram is a foundation program for all our course's, as is the BEC Managers Course to understanding how to organize and collect bikes for your community.
I cannot say it enough, the more everyone understands the process on both sides, the greater the success will be for all.
