In case you haven?t heard of it, the Seventh Form (http://www.seventhform.org/seventh_form.html) is an association of former pupils of St James and St Vedast, ?run independently of the schools by a Committee of former pupils and exists primarily to help those who went to St. James and St. Vedast keep in contact with one another. The Association also tries to support the schools in whatever way it can from time to time.? (Interesting, by the way, how a third of this independent organisation?s committee members have taught at SES-run schools and one of them currently teaches at St James!)
In their NEWS section, the Seventh Form website has a message from David Boddy (headmaster of St James boys senior school) about an ?Inquiry into Discipline and Pastoral Care 1975-85?. Mr Boddy invites former pupils wishing to defend the good name of St James and St Vedast to participate in the inquiry: ?Any former pupil who does not have a complaint but who would wish to participate in the Inquiry nonetheless, should also contact Christine Betts outlining in general terms what other observations are to be made, and expressing a willingness to be questioned further.?
How strange! Contrast this with the post by Christine Betts on this forum?s ?St Vedast Inquiry? thread (http://www.whyaretheydead.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=238). Nothing mentioned here about the inquiry being willing to listen to participants defending the schools. Also, nothing about ?outlining? anything ?in general terms?. No, complainants are required to pinpoint events that occurred up to thirty years ago including such precise details as ?by whom and against whom?, ?in whose presence and with what effect? and ?when and where the incident occurred?. Is this the same inquiry?
If you?d like to tell the Seventh Form what you think (in general terms) you can contact them via their website (http://www.seventhform.org/seventh_form.html) or speak to their chairperson, Aatif Hassan, on 020 7348 1789 or 07956 665988.

What does this mean? Does this mean that any objections to the time limit on inquiries should also be submitted by the 16th of Feb? What is an intervention? Intervention of what?

don't you love the wording on the 7th form site???
The decision to hold an Inquiry arose from a number of allegations made on an Internet website, about inappropriate punishment during those early years
"inappropriate"??? Is that what they call caning 4 year olds?
by a Chairman who has no connection with either school, or with The School of Economic Science, whose inspiration was behind the formation of these schools.
"inspiration" - nice positive term isn't it?
If mistakes were made during those early years,
'IF MISTAKES..." oh tut tut, there is a vague posibility of 'mistake'
and yes if you want to 'complain" then give dates times details witnesses AND even DOCUMENTRY evidence
A number of people have independently either spoken or written to me, saying that their experiences at St Vedast and St James were of a different nature to those being expressed on the website. Any former pupil who does not have a complaint but who would wish to participate in the Inquiry nonetheless, should also contact Christine Bett
just contact eh? that's all you have to do. no dates times evidence...

please complain about this item on the 7th form site. if the inquiry into the 'mistakes' is limited then the testimonials they seek should also be limited - i.e. specific incidents that are worthy of praise, only boys, only the years specified and they should have to provide dates/times/witnesses etc in the same way. I'm still annoyed that the schools haven't attempted to contact all ex-pupils, if they were really interested in the truth that would have been their first step.
Postby Alban » Sun Feb 27, 2005 11:59 pm
Hopefully any independent chairperson will see praise for the school as totally irellevant as it is not what the enquiry is about.
Postby daska » Mon Feb 28, 2005 12:22 am
sorry, I wasn't making myself clear, I think it's important that the 7th form should be made to see that they have a responsibility to their members and that by publishing this they have dropped below the standards required of them. I too hope that the chairman will be independent and unbiased but will they be told that these positive endorsements were solicited?

There's a predictable response to the Inquiry Report on the Seventh Form website: http://www.seventhform.org/seventh_form.html (in the 'News' section).
Mr Hassan manages not to mention a single negative finding, says he sees the Report as "an invaluable first step in resolving the concerns and complaints raised by former pupils" and ends on this jolly note: "I am delighted and yet unsurprised that the Report finds the current St.James school a 'happy place'". (Technically, the Report doesn't actually make that finding, Mr Hassan, but I'm sure it's nice for you to imagine it does.)

What really annoys me about this statement of Mr Hassan's is the overwhelmingly clear extent to which he has been brainwashed and continues to maintain a NIMBY stance on the whole thing. Perhaps he has been lucky enough to get through from one end of St James to the other relatively unscathed. However, somehow I doubt it. Does anyone know if our Mr Hassan is/was a member of SES? This would surely account for his clouded, rosy judgement of the current state of affairs... To me it feels as though he is discounting everything we went through on the basis that "things are different now". Well let me say this: it happened, I'm convinced it still happens, and it still hurts!!!!!

A superb posting from non conformist, short but accurate!
I have the following questions which for transparency, I feel, should be answered:
1) Some "masters" were unable to control their tempers- as some still are "masters" what has been done to rectify this?My concern is that an individual with a prediliction for this sort of behaviour will always have a deeply revolting tendency to carry on.
2) The current seventh form leader states the school is now a "happy place". With all due respect what the hell does he know about what went on? Has he actually asked the "old guard" about wht they did to us?
3) I notice some parents are now accepting responsibility for failing to act at the time.... Where are the rest of you (mine included)?

Bluelight, I raised the same question in this thread: http://www.whyaretheydead.net/phpBB2/vi ... .php?t=257
Have you discussed this with your parents, and if so, what did they say? Do they know about the Inquiry?
Daffy, I havent spoken to my "mother" for nearly four years, my "father" in months....the SES episode is a major part of this. I do know they are aware of the situation and have been for months.

It was being sold as a "Happy Place" when we were there, and when people came in to see us, we dutifully behaved angelically. So for those of us who have successfully come out the other side, the phrase "Happy Place" means nothing. It's obvious that Aatif Hassan is still in his "happy place"

One of the greatest problems with waste disposal is the illegal waste dumping that occur the world over. This is mainly the result of unscrupulous skip bin operators who practice unrestricted waste which, in turn, harms the environment and poses serious health risks for humans and animals. Therefore, the first thing to enquire when hiring a skip bin is if your skip bin operator disposes off the garbage legally or not. This is important since, when you are hiring a skip bin, you have a right to know where the waste is going and how it is going to interact with the immediate environment.
Most of the time, the waste from construction sites and renovation projects are picked up and dumped in the national parks, farmlands, industrial areas and even in warehouses. Given the nature of these sensitive areas, the garbage poses huge risks to the environment. It clogs the nearby waterways and the cleanup cost is left to the local authorities in the area, who must then spend large amounts of money on the recovery of the land lost to the illegally dumped domestic and construction waste materials.
Steps you can take to stop the illegal dumping of waste?
Be aware of extremely cheap price quotes when hiring the skip bin from an organization for skip bin hire Canberra. Waste removal is expensive keeping in mind all of the legalities and any organization that offers the skips for a cheap price might be engaging in some illegal waste disposal.
If you spot any suspicious activities going on at a nearby skip hire organization, always report it. The suspicious activities might be something like unusual movement of trucks in the night picking up waste or disposing these at commercial warehouses or out in the open.
Always ask questions related to the procedure for the removal of waste at your local skip hire organization. Any genuine skip hire organization should be able to answer appropriately questions about where their collected waste is going and what is done to it. If you find that an organization provides vague answers to such questions or altogether avoids them, report the incident for being investigated.
If you have had a bad experience with any skip hire organization in your area, it is always a good idea to share your experience online so that more people can become aware of it and stay alert. Leaving online reviews for a skip hire organization will allow other potential customers to avoid the skip hire organizations that might be indulging in illegal waste disposal at various sites.
To report any skip hire organization for their suspicious activities, you can always let the respective authorities know about the issue through their hotline numbers or by leaving an email about the issue you might have faced.
Given the incidents of illegal waste dumping at various places all across Australia, it is important to take definite measures in order to protect our environment and allow nature the space to breath. Taking legal routes to waste disposal can go a long way in helping the environment positively since it allows the genuine skip hire organizations to segregate the waste for recyclable materials and then disposing the rest at registered landfills nearby.
What questions can you ask when hiring your next skip bin?
What happens to the garbage that is collected from my household after it is picked up by the pick-up trucks?
Is your organization a part of any waste or industry associations?
Is the waste segregated before being disposed off?
Any genuine organization that makes it a priority to practice safe waste disposal for the environment will be able to answer all of these questions in an appropriate manner. And then you can trust that they will be the best for the waste disposal for your household.

Senate OK of Farm Bill Sends It to President Trump Who Is Expected to Sign It
December 12, 2018 by Daniel Flatley and Teaganne Finn
The House cleared farm legislation that renews agricultural subsidies and food aid for low-income families without a controversial provision backed by conservatives and President Donald Trump that would have toughened work requirements to qualify for assistance.
The bill passed 369 to 47 on Wednesday, a day after the Senate passed it 87-13. The measure now goes to Trump, who has indicated he supports it.
The five-year, $867 billion legislation, which also would extend federal crop insurance, scrapped an earlier House provision that would have added work requirements for older food stamp recipients and those with older children. The provision had been included in the House version of the measure and was removed during negotiations with the Senate, where it faced opposition.
The bill requires governors to sign off on state requests for work requirement waivers in areas with high unemployment. Currently, able-bodied adults under age 50 without dependents are expected to work at least 20 hours a week or be in a training program to obtain benefits. But states can request waivers from those requirements for high-unemployment areas.
Another snag resolved by negotiators was a push by Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue and Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke to enact more permissive logging regulations. Such provisions weren't included in the final legislation, according to a Democratic aide.
"Let us tell those farmers and ranchers and growers that are going through tough times that they're going to be good for the next five years," Senator Pat Roberts of Kansas, chairman of the Agriculture Committee, said on the Senate Floor.
Congressional approval of H.R. 2 comes after farm programs under current law began to expire Sept. 30. "We made the compromises we needed to make to get this deal done," House Agriculture Committee Chairman Mike Conaway of Texas told reporters last month.
Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that "the farm bill is in very good shape," and "our farmers are well taken care of."
The bill found a champion in Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, who cheered the inclusion of a provision that would make hemp a legal agricultural commodity, a boon to some farmers in his home state.
Under the farm bill, hemp would be removed from the federal list of controlled substances and hemp farmers will be able to apply for crop insurance. Unlike its biological cousin marijuana, hemp has industrial uses and doesn't produce a "high" if ingested. Proponents say it has other therapeutic uses, such as easing pain and anxiety.
A provision that would have imposed a lifetime ban on people with drug-related felonies from working in the hemp industry was reduced to a 10-year ban. The legislation also includes an exemption letting farmers already growing hemp under existing research authority continue their operations.
The bill met with opposition from Senator Chuck Grassley, an Iowa Republican, who advocated for a provision to tighten subsidies for farmers. Instead, the bill expands the definition of family members eligible for subsidies to include first cousins, nieces, and nephews.
Final passage in the House came after Republicans attached an unrelated provision that blocks lawmakers from forcing the chamber to vote on certain Yemen legislation until a new Congress takes over in January. The provision limits lawmakers' efforts to push back on the U.S. role in Yemen's civil war and relationship with Saudi Arabia amid bipartisan anger over the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the kingdom's consulate in Istanbul.

New marker for raised intracranial pressure
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements of the thickness of the optic nerve sheath are a good marker for raised intracranial pressure (ICP). New research published today in BioMed Central's open access journal Critical Care shows that a retro-bulbar optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) above 5.82mm predicts raised ICP in 90% of cases.
Aberrations in region of chromosome 1q21.1 associated with broad range of disorders in children
Researchers have discovered a submicroscopic aberration in a particular region of human chromosome 1q21.1 that appears to be associated with a variety of developmental disorders in children. The aberration can manifest itself as unexplained mild or moderate mental retardation, growth retardation, learning disabilities, seizures, autism, heart defects, other congenital abnormalities, cataracts, small head size, unusual facial features, hand deformities, or skeletal problems.
Immaturity of the brain may cause schizophrenia
The underdevelopment of a specific region in the brain may lead to schizophrenia in individuals. According to research published today in BioMed Central's open access journal Molecular Brain, dentate gyrus, which is located in the hippocampus in the brain and thought to be responsible for working memory and mood regulation, remained immature in an animal model of schizophrenia.
Brains rely on old and new mechanisms to diminish fear, NYU and Rutgers researchers find
Humans have developed complex thought processes that can help to regulate their emotions, but these processes are also linked with evolutionarily older mechanisms that are common across species, according to a study by neuroscientists at New York and Rutgers universities. The research appears in the Sept. 11 issue of the journal Neuron.
Male-specific neurons directly linked to gender-specific behaviors
New research identifies a few critical neurons that initiate sex-specific behaviors in fruit flies and, when masculinized, can elicit male-typical courtship behaviors from females. The study, published by Cell Press in the September 11th issue of the journal Neuron, demonstrates a direct link between sexual dimorphism in the brain and gender differences in behavior.
Brains rely on old and new mechanisms for diminishing fear
A new study suggests that although humans may have developed complex thought processes that can help to regulate their emotions, these processes are linked with evolutionarily older mechanisms that are common across species. The research, published by Cell Press in the September 11th issue of the journal Neuron, provides new insight into way the brain manages fear and may guide exploration of novel pharmacological and therapeutic treatments for anxiety disorders.
DNA 'tattoos' link adult, daughter stem cells in planarians
SALT LAKE CITY – Unlike some parents, adult stem cells don't seem to mind when their daughters get a tattoo. In fact, they're willing to pass them along.
Using the molecular equivalent of a tattoo on DNA that adult stem cells (ASC) pass to their "daughter" cells in combination with gene expression profiles, University of Utah researchers have identified two early steps in adult stem cell differentiation—the process that determines whether cells will form muscle, neurons, skin, etc., in people and animals.
Abuse of painkillers can predispose adolescents to lifelong addiction
No child aspires to a lifetime of addiction. But their brains might. In new research to appear online in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology this week, Rockefeller University researchers reveal that adolescent brains exposed to the painkiller Oxycontin can sustain lifelong and permanent changes in their reward system – changes that increase the drug's euphoric properties and make such adolescents more vulnerable to the drug's effects later in adulthood.
Protein found that regulates gene critical to dopamine-releasing brain cells
Washington, D.C. – Researchers have identified a protein they say appears to be a primary player in maintaining normal functioning of an important class of neurons – those brain cells that produce, excrete and then reabsorb dopamine neurotransmitters. These molecules command numerous body functions, ranging from management of behavior and mood to control of movement, and one day may hold the key to why and how some people develop Parkinson's and other brain diseases.
Searching in space and minds: IU research suggests underlying link
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- New research from Indiana University has found evidence that how we look for things, such as our car keys or umbrella, could be related to how we search for more abstract needs, such as words in memory or solutions to problems.
Off-label medicine combinations are the predominant treatment in survey of schizophrenics
Off-label medication use, the clinical application of prescribed drugs for indications other than those approved by the relevant drug regulatory agency (in the US, the Food and Drug Administration—FDA), is widespread in many areas of medicine but is particularly common in psychiatry. While off-label uses are legal and in many instances may be in the best interests of patients, they have not received the same degree of independent scrutiny through randomized clinical trials as have approved indications.
Study finds amount of work for residents -- not just hours -- need review
The number of patients assigned to medical residents and the complexity of care patients require has just as much impact on residents' training as the number of hours they work, according to a study published by researchers at the University of Chicago Medical Center in the September 10 issue of JAMA.
The study is believed to be the first of its kind using information gathered objectively from medical residents who work long shifts as part of their training.
Older adults can take medicines more safely and effectively by charting their daily routines
WASHINGTON — Older adults may be better able to comply with medication regimens by working with providers to fill out simple paper tables that track what they take and when they take it. Recent experiments found that use of a "medtable" may help to prevent medication-related problems. A report appears in the September issue of Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied, published by the American Psychological Association.
Researchers identify best strategies for supporting new science teachers
With a nationwide shortage of science teachers and plummeting student test scores, many school districts are forced to hire teachers with science degrees but little training in education or experience teaching. Without proper support, research shows that 66 percent of new teachers will quit the profession within three years. Now, new research from George Mason University's New Science Teachers' Support Network (NSTSN) has identified the most vital forms of support for new science teachers—providing them with in-classroom support and quality courses in how to teach science.
Teens' failure to use condoms linked to partner disapproval, fear of less sexual pleasure
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Approximately one in four teens in the United States will contract a sexually transmitted disease (STD), according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Experts believe a major contributing factor is the failure of many teens to use condoms consistently and routinely. Now a new study provides some insight into some of the factors that influence condom use among teenagers.

Also taking just one trip was Rep. John Duncan Jr., R Knoxville, while Reps. Marsha Blackburn, R Brentwood, and Diane Black, R Gallatin, took two each. Rep. Phil Roe, R Johnson City, took three. One of Black's, though, was to Nairobi, Kenya from Aug. 15 25, 2012 and sponsored by the International Conservation Caucus Foundation. It cost $15,265.

Cooper leads Tennessee in privately funded travel
"Our relationship with China represents one of our nation's greatest challenges going forward, and Senator Alexander was fortunate to attend the China seminar hosted by the nonprofit Aspen Institute, which regularly hosts such conferences for policymakers," said Jim Jeffries, the senator's spokesman. "These seminars have the added benefit of not being paid for by taxpayers."
Congress. Cooper went to Madison, Wis., for a discussion of clean air policy, and to Istanbul, Turkey, for discussions about foreign policy that Cooper says related to his seat on the House Armed Services Committee.
"I try to learn as much about America's role in the world as I can," Cooper said in a statement. "As the only Tennessean on the Armed Services Committee, it's my job to know the world's danger spots. And the meetings were approved in advance by the (House) Ethics Committee."
One of the leading sponsors of trips for the Tennessee delegation was the Washington based Aspen Institute, which describes itself as a nonpartisan educational and policy studies group.
It's a defense echoed by his colleagues across Capitol Hill. All members of Congress combined to take $3.7 million in such travel in 2013 alone, the highest total in a decade.
Taking no Omega Seamaster Deville Watch privately funded trips were Republican Sen. Bob Corker, as well as Reps. Scott DesJarlais, R Jasper; Stephen Fincher, R Frog Jump; and Chuck Fleischmann, R Ooltewah.

A compilation of records by Political MoneyLine shows Rep. Jim Cooper, D Nashville, led other Tennessee members in accepting such trips during those years, taking seven that were worth a combined $50,108. The two year total for the state delegation was $102,728.
The institute paid for all of the trips that Rep. Steve Cohen, D Memphis, accepted in 2012 to Sao Paulo, Brazil; San Diego; and Brussels, Belgium; plus one in February 2013 to Bangalore, India. They cost a combined $25,918, the next highest total after Cooper's.

Trump, Who Is Controlled By Russia, Accuses Germany Of Being Controlled By Russia
You have to give it to Donald Trump. The man has an uncanny ability to describe reality as the exact inverse of what almost everyone outside of his nutty supporters believes it to be. At a meeting in Brussels with Nato chief Jens Stoltenberg, Trump, who is in the midsts of a federal investigation into his ties with Russia, accused Germany of being controlled by the former Soviet Union.
"I think it is very sad when Germany makes a massive oil and gas deal with Russia," Trump said. "We are supposed to be guarding against Russia, and Germany goes out and pays billions and billions dollars a year to Russia."
"We are protecting Germany, we are protecting France, we are protecting all of these countries and then numerous of the countries go out and make a pipeline deal with Russia where they are paying billions of dollars into the coffers of Russia. I think that is very inappropriate," he went on.
"Germany is totally controlled by Russia because they will be getting from 60% to 70% of their energy from Russia. And a new pipeline, and you tell me if that's appropriate because I think it's not and I think it's a very bad thing for Nato."
The notion that Germany is "totally controlled" by Russia is completely ridiculous -- while there are legitimate concerns about Russia gaining leverage over Germany due to its reliance on their energy sector, thus far there is no evidence whatsoever to support Trump's claim. Trump appears to be incapable of understanding the fact that nation states trade with other nation states they may political disagree with, just as the US trades with China and Canada -- two countries Trump has needlessly attacked during his presidency. Does Trump really believe China and Canada control the US?
Angela Merkel wasn't having any of this and fired back at Trump when speaking to reporters.
"I want to say that I have experience of when a part of Germany was controlled by the Soviet Union," she said.
"I am very happy that today we are united in freedom as the Federal Republic of Germany. Because of that we can say that we can make our independent policies and make independent decisions. That is very good, especially for people in eastern Germany."
Why Trump feels it necessary to berate and humiliate long time allies is anyone's guess, particularly when he has spent the last couple of months lavishing brutal dictators with praise at fake summits. But then the world has come to expect this from the American president -- total and utter madness at every step of the way.
Furthermore, if anyone is "controlled" by Russia, it is clearly the Trump administration as evidence uncovered by the Mueller investigation has shown unequivocally (and Trump's own team have now admitted). In fact, as Jonathan Chait lays out in a truly disturbing piece in NY Mag that is worth reading in its entirety, it is possible that Trump has been "controlled" by Russia for over three decades. He writes:
Suppose we are currently making the same mistake we made at the outset of this drama — suppose the dark crevices of the Russia scandal run not just a little deeper but a lot deeper. If that's true, we are in the midst of a scandal unprecedented in American history, a subversion of the integrity of the presidency. It would mean the Cold War that Americans had long considered won has dissolved into the bizarre spectacle of Reagan's party's abetting the hijacking of American government by a former KGB agent. It would mean that when Special Counsel Robert Mueller closes in on the president and his inner circle, possibly beginning this summer, Trump may not merely rail on Twitter but provoke a constitutional crisis.
And it would mean the Russia scandal began far earlier than conventionally understood and ended later — indeed, is still happening. As Trump arranges to meet face-to-face and privately with Vladimir Putin later this month, the collusion between the two men metastasizing from a dark accusation into an open alliance, it would be dangerous not to consider the possibility that the summit is less a negotiation between two heads of state than a meeting between a Russian-intelligence asset and his handler.
According to Chait, when you look at Trump's business ties to Russia over the years it becomes clear that he is deeply indebted to the country and may well have been tabbed as a prominent figure they could gain leverage over. Writes Chait:
During the Soviet era, Russian intelligence cast a wide net to gain leverage over influential figures abroad. (The practice continues to this day.) The Russians would lure or entrap not only prominent politicians and cultural leaders, but also people whom they saw as having the potential for gaining prominence in the future. In 1986, Soviet ambassador Yuri Dubinin met Trump in New York, flattered him with praise for his building exploits, and invited him to discuss a building in Moscow. Trump visited Moscow in July 1987. He stayed at the National Hotel, in the Lenin Suite, which certainly would have been bugged. There is not much else in the public record to describe his visit, except Trump's own recollection in The Art of the Deal that Soviet officials were eager for him to build a hotel there. (It never happened.)....
Trump returned from Moscow fired up with political ambition. He began the first of a long series of presidential flirtations, which included a flashy trip to New Hampshire. Two months after his Moscow visit, Trump spent almost $100,000 on a series of full-page newspaper ads that published a political manifesto. "An open letter from Donald J. Trump on why America should stop paying to defend countries that can afford to defend themselves," as Trump labeled it, launched angry populist charges against the allies that benefited from the umbrella of American military protection. "Why are these nations not paying the United States for the human lives and billions of dollars we are losing to protect their interests?"
Trump's letter avoided the question of whom the U.S. was protecting those countries from. The primary answer, of course, was the Soviet Union. After World War II, the U.S. had created a liberal international order and underwritten its safety by maintaining the world's strongest military. A central goal of Soviet, and later Russian, foreign policy was to split the U.S. from its allies.
We are apparently supposed to believe that Trump's entire political agenda being geared towards then Soviet Union foreign policy objectives was a mere coincidence, that his current admiration for Putin, who helped elect him in 2016, has nothing to do with his extensive business ties to Russia. We are also supposed to believe that Trump's refusal to punish Russia for hacking American democracy and interfering in an election has nothing to do with "kompromat", and his surreal war on US allies is not neatly aligned with Russia's aim to split American from its historic partners.
It is all just coincidence and the rantings of liberal conspiracy theorists.
Except of course, it isn't, as the Mueller investigation has already shown and history will no doubt vindicate long after this shameful debacle has come to and end.

Samsung Gear S3 review
The Gear S3 is packed with features and has gotten bigger to accommodate all that it can do, but should you buy it? Here's our Samsung Gear S3 review!

The newest version of the Gear series is a bit bigger, packs a little more punch, and brings a few more tools for the smartwatch enthusiast. Is there enough substance behind the style? We find out in this full review of the Samsung Gear S3.
Hot Android phones:
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge review
Google Pixel XL review
LG V20 review
Before we begin, we will mention that while we are reviewing the Frontier edition, we were able to use the two different editions of it. A Wi-Fi only edition of the watch is available and is more or less the typical Gear experience, while the 4G-enabled edition through AT&T makes it easy use the watch without needing to have a phone nearby and connected.
While it might not be easy for everyone to sport this large smartwatch, there is one simple reality for those who can – this is one sleek device. The Gear S3 Frontier brings grooves to the signature rotating bezel, giving it an added tactile quality that is subtle but noticeably felt. Seconds in increments of five line the area just below the rotating bezel – a small detail that adds to any analog watch face. Two buttons are on the right side, one to go backwards in the interface and the other to either go back to the watch face or open up the app list. To differentiate the Frontier and Classic editions, the Frontier's buttons are more recessed to the body and are covered in a patterned leather.
In adding to the sporty nature of the Gear S3 Frontier, a silicone band comes standard. This helps with the watch's water resistance, ensuring that no leather will get ruined if one's wrist gets splashed. However, it is easy to replace the bands through the 22mm standard connectors. A myriad of bands are available from Samsung via partnerships with plenty of fashion companies, but this silicone complemented the style of the Gear S3 nicely.
The body case is a large 46mm, definitely bigger than either of the previous Gear S2 models. This size makes it tough to recommend for anyone with small wrists, regardless of one's gender. Even my own wrists could barely contain the large frame of the watch. While it certainly doesn't look obnoxious on my wrists, it took a little bit of time to get used to. This size adds room for plenty of features and protection – turning the watch body over reveals the heart rate sensor and designations for the 316L stainless steel material that makes it up. And finally, a MIL-STD 810G rating adds extra shock, heat, and cold resistance to the existing IP certification.
What we really applaud the Gear S3 Frontier for, is its ability to work with plenty of different outfits. While it is most at home among a more formal ensemble, the sleek head-turning design makes it a centerpiece when wearing casual clothing. And to that end, it is hardly a loud device in terms of look – the black color blends in well with most paired clothing.
Which brings us to the marquee feature that returns from the Gear S2 – the rotating bezel. It takes just little tug or a little push in order to make it move, and every click from the bezel is as satisfying as the last. Full touchscreen capabilities are available still, but this physical method of moving around the Tizen interface is fluid, responsive, and as snappy as it should be. Movements far in the interface or just to the next element are equally easy, making this an ideal smartwatch for anyone that wants a tactile experience to, in many ways, replace touchscreen experiences.
And the display is half the story regarding the size of the Gear S3 – at 1.3 inches, the OLED display is covered in Gorilla Glass SR+ (Scratch Resistance Plus) and boasts 360 x 360 resolution. Though these specs might sound a bit run of the mill for most high-end smartwatches, credit goes to Samsung for leveraging it as effectively as possible. OLED lends to really great colors coming from the Tizen OS along with the ability to truly turn off the display's lighting for battery savings.
And to that end, watch faces on the Gear S3 take on a different nature when the 'Always on Display' option is ticked. When using pretty much any watch face downloaded from the Samsung Gear application, covering the display with one's hand or letting it time out reveals a more toned down version of the face that still keeps the essential elements in view no matter what angle you're looking at the watch from. For any fans of the Always on Display on the Galaxy smartphones, this is about the closest that it can get strapped onto a wrist.
In all situations – even in broad daylight – the brightness of this OLED panel keeps everything properly viewable. And it is important to have an easy time glancing at the screen because the Tizen operating system tries to pack in as much as it can in the main screen. Some watch faces have hidden functionality when tapped upon. For example, the default face doubles up as a stopwatch. Even when features like these are running, small elements are strewn about the watch face to alert the user to changing circumstances like standing notifications or when the watch is not connected to a smartphone.
Make no mistake – this is the best way to read notifications on a smartwatch. Ever. The combination of the high quality screen and the rotating bezel to scroll down in even long notifications is an experience that is unparalleled by the touchscreen-centric Android Wear and the button pressing Pebble. Even when pictures load up in the preview, they're shown in effective fashion and simply add to the idea that this watch is supposed to be more standalone than perpetually tethered to your smartphone.
The best Wear OS watches (October 2021): Samsung, Mobvoi, and more
So, for a watch that wants to do as much as possible, there has to be quite a bit of power under the hood. For the Gear S3, this comes in the form of an Exynos 7270, born and optimized by Samsung and for Samsung, in the case of their own smartwatch operating system Tizen. It comes at no surprise, then, that the watch simply flies through its operating system and applications. A quick spin of the rotating bezel shows how fluidly all of the widgets and screens zip past with no issues at all.
The only problems we had with applications came from third party developed downloads from the Gear Manager. This is not so much the problem of the watch and its processing power, but from the development of the apps. While this is an issue that bears mentioning, the core experience of the Gear S3 is still about as good as it can get – and that says a lot, because this watch tries to do a lot out of the box.
As mentioned earlier, we have been able to use a 4G LTE enabled version of the Gear S3 that comes with a few extras. Namely, the ability to sync up the watch without needing to be around the smartphone it pairs with. Setting up the Gear Manager properly means that as long as both the smartphone and smartwatch are connected to some sort of network, notifications will come to the Gear S3, no matter where the user is.
The added benefit is the ability to make calls and send texts in this very situation, without the smartphone around. On AT&T, this service is called NumberSync and it makes it so that the watch goes off alongside its paired phone. Calls on the watch make use of a speaker and microphone combo that is found on the left side of the body, tucked under the top half of the watch. The experience of taking calls on the S3 is akin to a small walkie talkie that is strapped to your wrist, but it isn't effective in even semi-loud environments and thus requires either a Bluetooth headset connection or, surprise surprise, moving to the phone. It's a great idea made into reality, it's just not as awesome as we probably all expected it to be.
Not the mention that having this extra functionality in the Frontier LTE means paying for a smartwatch plan that encompasses data and wireless signal, which costs $10 on top of any smartphone plan you are already paying for. Is it worth that extra money each month? That's up to you, but we think that there is already so much fun to be had on the Gear S3 without having to shout at your wrist.
Connecting a Bluetooth headset to the watch opens up a couple of possibilities. Not only will calls be easier to manage, but the on-board storage can be used for local music playback. The LTE-enabled Frontier allows for Spotify streaming, which is nice but is a battery drain. 4GB of storage is available for local files so that content is always within reach.
One final feature on the Gear S3 is Samsung Pay, enabled on the Gear S3 through an add-on that is installed in the Gear Manager. The setup takes a little bit of time, but after getting any credit cards put into the add-on and then transferred over to the NFC and MST enabled Gear S3, payments are quite easy at multiple stations across major stores. Simply hold the back button, select which card to use, and then bring the watch up to the station and voila. This is yet another fun aspect to using the Gear S3, and even this skeptic that prefers physical credit cards gets a kick out of it.
Samsung Pay: What is it, how does it work and how do I use it?
The battery of the Gear S3 is charged via a wireless charging dock that is magnetic, making the watch snap right into place easily. Though Samsung claims two days of battery life out of the 380mAh unit, that is less true when usage is constant and aggressive. This is mostly true for the Frontier LTE, in which everything from taking calls, sending texts, and even fitness tracking combined will make the watch seem more like a one day warrior. When using more applications and functions on the regular, be prepared to take the watch off and dock it at least once a day to top off the battery.
And lastly, Tizen – the smartwatch OS of choice for Samsung. Since the Gear S2, there have been some enhancements made to the operating system, and existing Gear S2 users will get this through an update. These are mostly in terms of using the rotating bezel, which can be rotated to answer or decline calls, for example.
The main noticeable changes are in the overall optimization of the Tizen software, and it shows in the smooth look and feel that the Gear S3 provides. Which is good, because there are a lot of apps that require some due diligence. Weather, calendar events, reminders, Flipboard, S Health, and so much more are available to the user, and it can get a little overwhelming. Add upon all that the different ways that users can respond to messages – voice, emoji, canned messages, and a T9 keyboard that is a bit easier to use on the larger screen but is still far from ideal.
S Health returns in Tizen as the main method of fitness tracking. Much like in the Gear S2, S Health will count steps and periodically take heart rate metrics to get a snapshot of the day's fitness. While its step count default of 6000 is still rather absurd to us, there are a few more tools here to use when going out in the wild. GPS tracking is available when doing distanced based workouts, though it has to be enabled via the specifically selected activity, like hiking. And speaking of hiking, there are barometers and altimeters to get a better handle on one's environment. Hikers, in particular, will probably find altitude information useful. Other functions in S Health help users track water and caffeine intake along with sleep, but these are rather simplistic in their execution.
Polar M600 review
Moto 360 Sport review
The app ecosystem of Tizen has grown a lot since the Gear S2, and some apps that I envied Android Wear and Pebble for during my usage of Samsung's OS have finally arrived. That said, there are issues with some third party application development, as we mentioned earlier. Sleep as Android, my sleep tracker of choice, is still a little buggy and didn't give full reports a couple of nights. And S Voice is just not as good as Google's voice assistance.
All in all, Tizen is an experience that is still best taken at its core, because that is where it shines best. Third party support is still lacking, but Samsung is still able to make it work where it counts – fitness tracking, though sometimes simplistic, is robust; and Samsung Pay helps add a bit of flair to the notification prowess and daily info already built into the Gear S3.
There was a feeling I couldn't shake when using the Gear S3 – with every notification that came in, I found myself enjoying reading the entire message (usually SMS) on the screen, scrolling down with the satisfying clicks of the rotating bezel. This is an experience I had before on the Gear S2, but for some reason this was better on the even larger, more men's fashion-oriented Gear S3. And for any faults that I came across in this smartwatch, like buggy apps or tough to hear voice calls blaring from my wrist, the simplest daily activities were made better by what Samsung continues to build upon since premiering their unique tactile user experience.
...one of the most enjoyable smartwatch experiences we've had in a little while...
The Gear S3 Frontier, in particular, really tries to wear a lot of hats at once – smartwatch, notification center, health monitor, payment system, GPS tracker, audio player, and voice caller, to name a few. And though there are a large number of users that may be turned off by the visage of this smartwatch, credit has to be given where credit is due – Samsung managed to make the bulk of these features work well enough in concert to make what has been one of the most enjoyable smartwatch experiences we've had in a little while. Android Wear unfortunately has one of its biggest competitors in the Samsung Gear S3.
What do you think of the Samsung Gear S3? Would you buy one? Or is an Android Wear device or the Apple Watch more your type of smartwatch? Let us know your views in the comments below!

The height of summer…the time of year when the earth feels full and ripe.
Traditionally the grain harvest is gathered, celebrated and festivities are held for the first fruits. The earth is exhaling & teems with life.
It is also the time for a personal harvest; did we achieve what we set out to do with our New Year intentions? Could we have been more fruitful? It is important that during this time of looking inward we are realistic – let us not be harsh with ourselves, nor overly lenient. We must keep moving forwards truthfully….
Water to achieve our preferred consistency.


I was given a small outboard engine which was noisy. The problem was dry and rusty main bearings. I looked on line for replacements and found the ones I needed. I was very pleased with the price and the instant delivery. Excellent service!

Most High-Paying Hollywood Actors in 2020
Christian Gilbert
Hollywood actors are always in demand, and some actors have the most high-paying roles available to them. While there are many actors with more than one part to play, several actresses have the most high-paying roles available to them.
The most popular roles that actresses can acquire include Love Interests, Heroes, Villains, and Action Guys. These movie genres are even made popular depending on who the actors are. Some of the top-paid and most sought-after stars that can turn a movie a hit are the following:
1. Dwayne Johnson
With a major global pandemic hit pause on our Hollywood infrastructure, Dwayne Johnson stands out as the highest-paid actor this year. He's topping the box office as well as with the critical acclaim for his role in the new film, 'Central Intelligence'. It has taken a while for Johnson to get going with acting roles, but he's finally been rewarded with his first Oscar win (along with Michael Caine), and that kind of recognition will only help his reputation.
The top five highest-paying actors in Hollywood for next year are all occupied by well-known people who have a proven track record as entertainers so Johnson can take heart from that fact.
2. Ryan Reynolds
Ryan Reynolds is still one of the top-paid movie stars in 2020 despite the pandemic brought to the movie industry. Reynolds topped Forbes' annual list of highest-paying female stars, published Tuesday, by raking in a whopping $87.4 million in the past year.
3. Mark Wahlberg
There's no doubt that Mark Wahlberg has proven he's one of the most successful actors in Hollywood and continues to soar high on the ladder of success.
If we look at the acting jobs that Mark Wahlberg has done, we can say that his roles are always the best. This includes starring roles in movies such as Kick-Ass, The Fighter, The Longest Yard, and finally Kings and the Sea.
As a result, Mark is well known throughout the world as an actor who has all the world's skills and talent. Moreover, he has also created a massive following in America with his role in the highly acclaimed The Fighter movie. Aldo, he was nominated for the Oscar award for his role in this film.
Besides acting, one of the reasons Mark Wahlberg is on top of the list is his music. He's known to have released four solo albums so far and continues to perform well despite his age. Moreover, he has written two books as well as creating two music videos.
4. Ben Affleck

Greetings! As of now, 1-10-2015, I will attend to this forum now and then if not daily. If you ever come to asking how I found this forum and what are my motivation, well... it must be the Little Busters! visual novel I started after finishing up the anime adaption of the series. I felt like J.C.Staff skimmed a little too much to fit their production needs and resources, and I need to fill those holes they left. I am completely a starter to the world of visual novels, but that doesn't mean I don't read - actually I spent a lot time reading - however the visual novels have been at blind spot for a reason or another. Aside from the visual novel, the motivation comes from the fact that I love Japanese culture and production probably as much as you guys here, and I'd like to chat about this and that. It is a good thing we have something in common. If you have anything personal to ask, ask; I'll answer, but take note that every response may or may not be true; that depends on the question . And one more thing: my mother tongue isn't English, so do not wonder, If I type like a retarded.
Hello! I'm fairly excited to join this forum; it seems like a strong community. I've been a fan of anime for years. It is always the one thing I know I can go to when I need something to calm me down or to put me in a better mood. I haven't delved into the world of visual novels much, or really at all yet. However, from what I have played so far, I can say they're something I thoroughly enjoy. Joining this forum seems like a fine opportunity to explore more of the whole anime culture, widen my horizons and discuss it with others who have the same interest. And I'm glad to join the party.
Hello friends! I could use some help please!
So uh... As you can see, I'm very, very new //doesn't even have a profile picture yet, desu And you can call me Alexis. As for VNs, uh... I'm actually kinda new to them. I stumbled upon the world of VNs after playings lots of RPG and otome games and the like, most of which are horror. I found this site interesting cause *if I'm not mistaken* I've seen it quite a number of times while searching for games. And since I'm getting interested in VNs, well, I thought, let's register, why the heck not? I'm hoping to add to my VN stash here That's all from me, folks.


Customers will use about 17,500 megawatt-hours of electricity on St. Patrick's Day. Kansas' March winds will provide a good portion of that energy, and Westar will use renewable energy credits to fill in any gap.
While Westar will go 100 percent green on St. Patrick's Day, Westar customers have that choice every day through a program called Westar Wind. With it they can choose any additional percentage of their electricity to be renewable. For the average household, choosing to have their electricity fully provided by wind energy costs about an extra $2.50 per month. Signing up is easy when customers log into their Westar Energy account online at www.westarenergy.com or call 1-800-383-1183.

PM Lee Hsien Loong wore pink shirt to meet gay man in US
This photo has been met with widespread opprobrium from highly religious Singaporeans.
A major crisis has broken out in Singapore causing highly religious Singaporeans to consider denouncing their Singapore citizenship, unplugging from the Internet altogether, going back to barter trade and using stone and bronze tools.
This after they found out that Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong went to the US and wore a pink shirt to meet prominent gay man, Apple's CEO Tim Cook.
This has caused the highly religious people in Singapore who are iPhone users and who support the PAP regime, to come to the realisation that they have been financing the gay lifestyle of Apple's CEO, having purchased his company's products, such as the popular iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, Apple tablets and MacBooks and now face the prospect of saluting a prime minister who has come into contact with a homosexual.
Currently, some 70 percent of smartphone users in Singapore uses an Apple iPhone, which is the same percentage of Singaporeans who voted for the PAP regime in the General Election 2015.
Yeshu Aini, a local religious person, said: "My entire life is in disarray. I have all along been an Apple and Lee Hsien Loong fan and bought the iPhone 5 and 6 that were developed under Tim Cook's charge and voted for the PAP."
"Therefore, I have been directly contributing to sin by financing it. This has allowed homosexuality to thrive."
"No wonder this latest 5.5-inch iPhone 6s Plus feels so good in my hands. It is because this is the average length of the male anatomy."
Local magician Lawrence Khong is expected to take to the pulpit on Sunday to encourage his flock to switch to using pay phones from now on, or even better, denounce technology altogether as a whole to be Satan's work.

"Spud" Elliott. From left: Mark Elliott (Amy's brother), Kathy Elliott, Amy Elberfeld, Dave Elberfeld and son Matt Elberfeld. (Photo: Provided)
Students at the University of Cincinnati Clermont College have a new space in which to work together while utilizing the latest technology, thanks to generous donors.
On March 13, college faculty, staff, students and community members gathered for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of two new student collaboration rooms in the Clermont College Library.
The rooms feature the latest technology to enhance group work, including HDMI hookups for laptops to access LED TV screens, glass whiteboards and Apple TV connectivity so students can wirelessly mirror content from their iPhones or iPads to the TVs. They are located on the first floor of the library and replace dusty stacks of reference materials as part of an extensive remodel supported by a generous donation from Batavia residents Dave and Amy Elberfeld.
"The library surveys students each year, and students desired more study spaces," said Katie Foran-Mulcahy, former director of the UC Clermont library. "The first floor is high trafficked and accessible to students. It's a preeminent location for students to study, all made possible because of the Elberfelds. They are passionate and enthusiastic about our students."
The Elberfelds made the donation in honor of Amy's father, W.G. "Spud" Elliott, and his commitment to community and education. Elliott was an oral surgeon in Springfield, Ohio, who passed away in 2006.
"Education was really important to my father," said Amy. "People helped him through school, and he paid it forward by quietly donating money for scholarships to various colleges. We wanted to continue his legacy and felt that a gift to library would serve the largest number of students at UC Clermont."
The Elberfelds also have a strong commitment to education — Dave served as a teacher and assistant principal at Goshen High School and was an adjunct instructor at UC Clermont in the 1990s. In retirement, he works with adolescents at the Clermont Recovery Center.
"We believe in Clermont County and in the college," Dave said. "There's a great leadership team here."
UC Clermont Dean Jeff Bauer said the student collaboration rooms mark the next step toward transforming the library into a modern space for students. Generous contributions from donors have helped the library implement several improvements in recent years, including new lounge furniture, reconfigured space on the first floor and additional huddle rooms for student collaboration.
"Students need to know how to work in groups and with technology to solve the problems of the 21st century," said Bauer. "This ability will apply directly to their careers. We are thankful to the Elberfelds for their generous support of the college's mission and our students."

Q: How to set Vairable to 0 on Only first open Is there a way for me to set a integer variable to 0, but it will only do this on the first time the app is opened by a device?

A: Create a shared preference. Query the shared preference int value (for example) at the start of the application. If it's a first time boot up we get the default 0 value where we change the shared preference value which helps us keep track that it isn't a first time start in the future start of the application.
SharedPreferences pref =
getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("MyPref", MODE_PRIVATE);
Editor editor = pref.edit();

In your splash (or wherever necessary) check for a specific key of the shared preference like this :
//Check for the key "tracker", if it does not exist consider the default value as 0
int appStartTracker = pref.getInt("tracker", 0);
if(appStartTracker == 0){
    // It means you started the app for the first time. Do what you have to
    // and set the preference to 1 or increment the appStartTracker to keep
    //track of how many times the app has been started.
    appStartTracker++;
    editor.putInt("tracker", appStartTracker);
    editor.commit();
}else{
    // Not a first time start.
    //Do the following if you need to keep track of total app starts else ignore
    appStartTracker++;
    editor.putInt("tracker", appStartTracker);
    editor.commit();
    Log.d("TAG", "App has been started for the " + appStartTracker +"time");
}

P.S The shared preference is cleared when the user clears data.
