Q: How to access a php variable outside of IF block I am trying to access a variable outside of if block in myphp code.
Here is my code;
$result = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM content order by id DESC");
          $result->execute();
          $dataArr = array();
          $result = $result->get_result();
          while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()){

        $userID = $row['uid'];

//get user name from another table

             $name = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM registered_users where id = ?");
            $name->bind_param("i",$userID);
          $name->execute();
          $getName = $name->get_result();
          if(($getRowCount = $name->num_rows) == 1){
            $resultRow = $name->fetch_assoc();
              $FirstName = $resultRow['first_name'];
        }

            array_push($dataArr , array("name"=>$FirstName));
          }

So it throws me an error on line array_push saying :
Notice: Undefined variable: FirstName in /home/path/path/file.php on line <line>

Is there a way I can get to access this variable as it is from even outside the if block if that is indeed the issue. Also I have followed other post on stackoverflow regarding this, but none of them seemed to work.

A: You need declare variable $FirstName before the if to set value an access to these on your Array_push
$FirstName = ''; // declare variable before the if
          if(($getRowCount = $name->num_rows) == 1){
            $resultRow = $name->fetch_assoc();
              $FirstName = $resultRow['first_name'];
        }

            array_push($dataArr , array("name"=>$FirstName));
          }

ThanhPV Comment
Or check variable defined by isset() function. (In case you don't want to use global scope) Like that:
array_push($dataArr , array("name"=>isset($FirstName) ? $FirstName : ""));

A: Hi if you want this variable then just declare it out side of if loop. Simply set as a global variable.
<?php $FirstName = ''; ?>

then just assign it inside if loop and use it anywhere
also before using it just check it empty or not
if(!empty($FirstName)){
    array_push($dataArr , array("name"=>$FirstName));
}

A: please declare the variable outside of loops if you are going to use it elsewere.`
    /* code before */
$result = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM content order by id DESC");
          $result->execute();
          $dataArr = array();
          $result = $result->get_result();
          while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()){
          $userID = $row['uid'];

//get user name from another table

          $name = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM registered_users where id = ?");
          $name->bind_param("i",$userID);
          $name->execute();
          $getName = $name->get_result();
          $FirstName = '';

    if(($getRowCount = $name->num_rows) == 1){
                $resultRow = $name->fetch_assoc();
                  $FirstName = $resultRow['first_name'];
            }
    array_push($dataArr , array("name"=>$FirstName));
      }
    /* code after*/

Now you have declared  $FirstName as static. So the value doesnt get destroyed even after exiting the if loop. And is re-initialized to null just before entering the if loop the next time.
hope i've helped. Do update the status.

474640 Alicanto (designação provisória: ) é um objeto separado (porque o seu periélio é superior a 40 UA). Ele nunca fica mais perto do Sol do que 47 UA (sobre a borda externa principal do Cinturão de Kuiper) e com uma distância média de mais de 300 UA do Sol. Sua grande excentricidade orbital sugere fortemente que foi gravitacionalmente espalhado em sua órbita atual. Pois, assim como todos os objetos separados, esse corpo celeste está atualmente fora da influência gravitacional do planeta Netuno, como ele veio a ter essa órbita ainda é algo que não foi possível ser explicado. Ele só foi observado 25 vezes ao longo de 4 oposições. Só para comparar, o possível planeta anão Sedna já foi observado 88 vezes. Sedna e  têm órbitas semelhantes (com periélio superior a 40 UA e semieixo maior que ultrapassa 200 UA). Ele possui uma magnitude absoluta de 6,4 e tem um diâmetro estimado de cerca de 231 km para 315 km. O astrônomo Mike Brown lista este corpo celeste em sua página na internet como um candidato a possível planeta anão.

Descoberta
474640 Alicanto foi descoberto no dia 6 de novembro de 2004.

Características físicas e orbitais
474640 Alicanto foi observado pelo Telescópio Espacial Hubble em novembro de 2008. O mesmo chegou ao seu periélio (maior aproximação do Sol), em 2009, e está atualmente a 47,5 UA em relação ao Sol.

O astrônomo Mike Brown lista o mesmo em seu site como um possível planeta anão, ele tem um diâmetro de 315 km com base em um suposto albedo de 0,04. O seu albedo é esperado para ser baixo, porque o objeto tem uma cor azul (neutro). Mas se o albedo for maior, o objeto pode facilmente ser apenas metade desse tamanho.

474640 Alicanto é um dos 12 objeto separado no Sistema Solar que tem um semieixo maior acima de 150 UA, um periélio além de Netuno, e um argumento de periélio de 340 ± 55°. Destes, apenas seis, incluindo 474640 Alicanto, tem periélios atualmente além da influência de Netuno.

Bill Text - SB-466 Rental passenger vehicle transactions: electronic surveillance technology: AMBER Alert.
An act to amend Section 1939.23 of the Civil Code, relating to rental passenger vehicle transactions.
SB 466, Bates. Rental passenger vehicle transactions: electronic surveillance technology: AMBER Alert.
Existing law generally governs the transactions between a rental company, also referred to as a rental car company, and its customers, including, among other provisions, restrictions on a rental company's use of electronic surveillance technology. Existing law, as part of those restrictions, prohibits a rental company from using, accessing, or obtaining any information relating to the renter's use of the rental vehicle that was obtained using electronic surveillance technology, except under specified circumstances.
This bill would additionally authorize that electronic surveillance technology to be used, accessed, or obtained by a rental company in circumstances in which the rental vehicle is the subject of an AMBER Alert. The bill would require a rental company, if it uses the equipment in this manner, to notify law enforcement that one of the rental company's vehicles is the subject of an AMBER Alert upon becoming aware of the situation, except as specified.
(ii) The rental vehicle has not been returned following one week after the contracted return date or by one week following the end of an extension of that return date.
(iii) The rental company discovers the rental vehicle has been stolen or abandoned, and, if stolen, the rental company shall report the vehicle stolen to law enforcement by filing a stolen vehicle report, unless law enforcement has already informed the rental company that the vehicle is missing or has been stolen or abandoned.
(iv) The rental vehicle is the subject of an AMBER Alert issued pursuant to Section 8594 of the Government Code. If the rental company uses the equipment in connection with this provision relating to an AMBER Alert, the rental company shall notify law enforcement that one of the rental company's vehicles is the subject of an AMBER Alert upon becoming aware of the situation, unless law enforcement has already informed the rental company that the vehicle was the subject of an AMBER Alert.
(1) GPS-based technology that provides navigation assistance to the occupants of the rental vehicle, if the rental company does not use, access, or obtain information relating to the renter's use of the rental vehicle that was obtained using that technology, except for the purposes of discovering or repairing a defect in the technology and the information may then be used only for that purpose.
(2) Electronic surveillance technology that allows for the remote locking or unlocking of the vehicle at the request of the renter, if the rental company does not use, access, or obtain information relating to the renter's use of the rental vehicle that was obtained using that technology, except as necessary to lock or unlock the vehicle.
(3) Electronic surveillance technology that allows the company to provide roadside assistance, such as towing, flat tire, or fuel services, at the request of the renter, if the rental company does not use, access, or obtain information relating to the renter's use of the rental vehicle that was obtained using that technology except as necessary to provide the requested roadside assistance.
(c) Subdivision (a) does not prohibit a rental company from obtaining, accessing, or using information from electronic surveillance technology for the sole purpose of determining the date and time the vehicle departs from and is returned to the rental company, and the total mileage driven and the vehicle fuel level of the returned vehicle. The information obtained or accessed from this electronic surveillance technology shall only be used for the purpose described in this subdivision.
(d) A rental company shall not use electronic surveillance technology to track a renter in order to impose fines or surcharges relating to the renter's use of the rental vehicle.

Let's Talk Films With Sameer K Singh
Today on Let's Talk Films With, I have one of my older associates and now a dear friend Sameer K Singh who is the Founder of Yoola. A fellow filmy guy and the biggest fan of Akshay Kumar, let's hear what he has to say about his 'Filmyness'.
What kind of movies you love to watch & how many in a day can you watch?
Well if there's anything apart from my work and family that can excite me then it's movies. I would rather watch an already seen movie again than going out to party. My favorite genres are comedy and thriller or something that can keep me on the edge of my seat. If it's about my favorite Akshay Kumar and if my schedule allows, I can watch from 2 to 3 movies of his in a day be it same or different, doesn't really matter.
Since what age are you watching movies?
I don't remember exactly, which somehow suggests that I started watching movies from a very young age, not that I am not young now (laughs) but I assume I must be around 10-12 (smiles).
You being a business guy… tell me one movie that you remember that has the main lead playing a businessman to the T?
Well, there are so many that I am little confused here, if you watch Bollywood movies closely, you will get some or other entrepreneurship tip from every 2nd movie that releases. I will name few of my favorites which are Guru, Rocket Singh Sales Man Of The Year, Band Baja Baarat, Badmash Company, etc but the one that would be on top of my list would be Lagaan. Yes, you must be wondering what has Lagaan to do with business? But as you go deep into it, there can be no better motivational character than Bhuvan as an Entrepreneur. The character goes against all odds, builds a team, leads it till the end and wins because of team work, belief and his determination and of course a little luck (tongue out). These are the characteristics of a true entrepreneur.
Have you ever imagined yourself to be a superhero and tried to wear your briefs over your pants and tried to save the world?
Haha!! I am a 90s kid, pure desi who grew up watching Shaktimaan, pointing a finger towards the sky and rotating 360 degrees was more me. Never tried wearing my briefs over my pants at least not that I remember but yes I did wear capes and act like I could fly.
What is your secret fantasy when it comes to movies and movie stars?
My secret fantasy is to be immortal and the only medium that can make me immortal is movies. I believe whoever comes on the silver screen becomes immortal, we have lost so many legends in past but because good movies have that charm to connect with its audience by heart, actors stay with us forever. Like for example, I was watching DDLJ recently and didn't realize that Legendry Amrish Puri isn't between us, this sudden realization saddened me but at the same time, I was cheering that he will always remain with us throughout our lives because of his work. So yes, if given a chance I would love to try my skills to act as well, not immediately but definitely (smiles).
The most bizarre movie you have ever watched?
Believe me, I try and watch each and every movie that comes across. I have watched Bollywood movies that many don't even know the names of. I do survive even the bad ones but one of the most bizarre movies was Jism 2, it was like a nightmare and I wanted to leave the theater but to maintain my track record of watching every movie till the end, I stayed and survived.
Your favorite movie and why?
It has to be Garam Masala on top, I watch it when I am upset, it makes me cheer up, I can watch it again and again and it will never be enough for me. I remember I once watched Garam Masala thrice in a day, it sounds crazy but yes that's what I am when it come to Akshay Sir and his comic timings in his movies. Other favorites would be Dil Chahta Hai, Hera Pheri, Race, Taare Zameen Par, Munna Bhai, etc.
The corniest dialogue you have ever heard?
Can I mention my favorite instead?
Go ahead (smiles).
Okay, there's this dialogue from the movie Ishq where Kajol and Amir Khan burns property papers to make a cup of tea and later after tasting it says, "Dhai crore rupaye jab ek cup chai ka zaika nahi badal saka toh hum pyaar karne walon ka irada kya badlega" Sheer brilliant!!
A movie dialogue you tend to use often or comes to your mind now?
"Kyun Thaak Rahe Ho??" from Houseful 2 is one of the funniest and can be used in day to day life. I am very good with dialogues and easily relate to any situation with apt dialogues to express myself.
Any filmmaker you would want to maroon in an island for making crappy movies?
Yes please, if possible, let's sponsor a one-sided ticket for the maker of Jism 2, it was such a disaster that I still can't forget the trauma after so many years of its release.
Any actors you want to add with the director in the same island 😛 ?
Imran Khan maybe?
Any message to fellow movie buffs?
I have messages (laughs).
Alright (laughs) let me reframe my question… Any messages to fellow movie buffs?
1) Don't support piracy, a movie requires a lot of effort, time and hard work of a team. Piracy kills the enthusiasm and charm of watching a movie on the silver screen, ultimately making it less attractive.
2) Not all movies are same and comparing two different movies isn't right. There are good movies and bad movies but every movie has a target audience if you go to watch an adult comedy, make sure you are in that mood and don't expect it to be classic PK or 3 idiots. If you do so, you will be disappointed but if you don't you will definitely enjoy it.
3) Don't compare Indian Film Industry with Hollywood, If you do, compare the ticket prices and budget too. Indian films are as good as they should be. Movies are meant for entertainment, get entertained.
Wish you all the best for Yoola and may you have a great year ahead Sam!
Thank you and wish you all the best for your next book Alfie The Elf… I believe it is releasing in a couple of weeks?
Yes it is and like movie piracy, please do not ask a free copy from any author (winks)
Arre nahi, I will be buying my copy, First Day, First Show.
Err… it's not a movie (laughs)
I know, sometimes the filmy keeda makes me say such things (laughs). On a serious note, I will be buying the book and I am sure it will be magical like your previous one.
Thank you (smiles)
So guys, if you are in Pune, then please do download Yoola and try it out. I am sure you will love the features of the app. Get more details at http://yoola.co/
Movie Review: Shivaay – A Feast for Ajay Devgan Fans!
The second BIG movie of the week is Actor, Producer and Director Ajay Devgn's second directorial – Shivaay. After a round of controversies surrounding the movie courtesy Kamal R Khan aka KRK, this action packed movie released with much hype and expectations. Let's find out if the movie was able to live up to the expectations or not.
Shivaay ( Ajay Devgn) is a mountaineer who conducts treks in the Himalayas and lives in a small house. On one of his tours, he meets the Hindi speaking Bulgarian student Olga (Erika Kaar) and falls in love with her after he saves her life in a deadly avalanche. Olga becomes pregnant and is not willing to give birth to a child but on Shivaay's insistence, she agrees to deliver the child Gaura (Abigail Eames) but refuses to raise it with him and returns to Bulgaria.
Nine years later, Gaura who was told by Shivaay that her mother is dead, learns about her existence through a letter. The peaceful life of Shivaay is shattered when Gaura confronts him about this learning and forces him to take her to Olga. So, Shivaay and Gaura go to Bulgaria to meet Olga who is now married to a Bulgarian, however, in a twist of destiny, Gaura gets kidnapped by a child trafficking gang and thus begins Shivaay's cat and mouse chase with the kidnappers. Will Shivaay be able to save Gaura? How far will a father to go for the safety of his daughter? Find out by watching the movie.
The plot is very good slightly inspired by Taken but the script lacks punch, However, the father-daughter angle is explored very beautifully by Ajay. Ajay Devgn as a performer and director does a superior job but his writers Robin Bhatt and Sandeep Srivastava pull him down. The action in the movie is interesting. As Shivaay, Ajay Devgn lives the role and Abigail Eames as Gaura does a wonderful job. Erika Kaar and Saayesha Saigal are good in their respective roles, however, as the story is about Ajay and Abigail, the other actors get less importance in the narrative.
Music by Mithoon is average but the background score is impactful. Cinematography by Aseem Bajaj is beautiful. The snowcapped mountains are captured wonderfully. Editing by Dharmendra Sharma is average, he could have done some crispier cuts in few sequences especially the chase sequence which is too long and tends to get boring.
On the whole, Shivaay is a good attempt by Ajay Devgn and his fans will love this actioner from him.
My Verdict: ***
Movie Review: Ae Dil Hai Mushkil!
Diwali is the biggest festival of India and like every year, this year too, two BIG movies are clashing with each other to get audience's attention. The first movie I am reviewing is Karan Johar's much-anticipated, much-talked and controversy surrounded – Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. Without much talking, let me dive into the story of ADHM.
The movie starts with 'private-jet ameer' Ayan (Ranbir) trying to hook up with 'Raees' Alizeh (Anushka) after a chance encounter at a London pub. However, instead of they ending up in bed and bidding farewell later, they strike up a friendship instantly. They're both Bollywood-crazy goofballs who love cheesy '80s songs, poke fun at each other's partners and fit into each other like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. But Ayan wants more from the relationship while Alizeh wants to have him as her 'bestestest' friend forever after reeling from her break-up with her ex DJ Ali (Fawad). Although, Ayan is a good singer, but Alizeh feels there is no feeling in his singing as he has never experienced heartbreak. Which he does when a chance encounter with Ali while Alizeh and Ayan are holidaying in Paris, makes her slip back into his arms, leaving him distraught.
Alizeh goes back to Lucknow and gets married to Ali against her parent's wishes. Ayan tries to make Alizeh understand his love for her, but she rejects him as she is not in love with him. A distraught and heartbroken Ayan then finds solace in a physical relationship with an older divorcee Saba (Aishwarya), who helps him get a new perspective on one-sided love.
Will Alizeh fall in love with Ayan and accept him as her lover or will Ayan find his soulmate in Saba? To find out, watch the movie.
The story by Karan Johar is a mixture of his earlier movies like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kal Ho Na Ho, Ek Main Aur Ek Tu etc. and Rockstar. There is no originality in the story or script, however, performances by the lead actors keep the movie afloat and entertaining. Ranbir, as usual, does a fantastic job and Anushka is a dream to watch. Their chemistry is crackling and you don't turn your face away whenever they mouth those typical filmy corny dialogues from the 80s and 90s. Aishwarya looks beautiful and does a decent job in her small role. Lisa Haydon is hilarious and makes the 'Vaatavaran' exciting with her presence. Fawad Khan and Imran Abbas are just okay and do not have too many screen time (there was no need for the entire controversy to be created around their presence in the movie). Shah Rukh Khan and Alia Bhatt lightens up the screen with their short cameos.
Dialogues by Niranjan Iyengar and Karan Johar is good and the first half is quite entertaining because of the dialogues and the lead pair's chemistry. The second half drags in the first 20 minutes and then picks up once Anushka and Ranbir meet again. The music by Pritam is outstanding especially the title song and Channa Mereya which has a haunting presence even in the BG score.
Cinematography by Anil Mehta is very good and you will fall in love with the lighting and every frame which gives you that typical KJo signature style. Editing could have been crisper, especially in the second half.
Overall, ADHM is a feel good movie and keeps you entertained and therefore I would recommend you to watch it at least once if you are a fan of KJO movies.
Let's Talk Films With Maanvi Gagroo!
If you have watched the much appreciated short series by TVF – Tripling recently, then you would not have missed the vivacious and goofy Chanchal the sister of Chandan and Chitwan. Today, we have the most talented and beautiful Maanvi Gagroo talking about films with me. So here are some excerpts from our fun chat.
Oh, I can watch movies all day, every day! That's why I love attending film festivals because you just go from one film to another. My favorite genre is drama. A film with strong characters and a good story about these characters. About real characters with real issues.
For a non-Bollywood family, my sister and I grew up on a fairly filmy diet. Both my parents are big movie buffs. I remember them showing us 'Sound of music', 'Mary Poppins' and 'My fair lady' as kids. They also loved giving trivia while the films were on. So yeah, there was always an interest in films.
How did your acting journey start?
Quite by chance actually. There were these auditions going on for a Disney show called 'Dhoom Machao Dhoom', I tested for a part on a whim, got the role and the rest, as they say, is history.
Your breakthrough role that made viewers sit up and notice you?
I think my first film 'Aamras'. Although the film didn't do well at the box office, I'd get great reviews. I remember all the reviews had mentioned and praised my performance and that was such a great feeling.
Tell me one movie that you remember where the main lead has done a great job?
I think Konkona Sen Sharma in 15 Park Avenue was outstanding. She played her part with such nuance and subtlety. It was a delight to watch her.
Have you ever imagined yourself to be a superhero and tried to wear your superhero cape and skirt and tried to save the world?
Nope, never. (giggles)
It wouldn't be a secret then, would it? (winks)
Tees Maar Khan (laughs). I am putting myself in a spot, but, I just didn't get the film.
Don't worry you are not alone (winks and laughs). Your favorite movie and why?
Revolutionary Road. I thought the idea itself had me impressed. And then the performances were so real and felt. I remember thinking the entire time how great it would be to play that part (of Kate Winslet).
Umm…(squints and thinks for a moment) I don't remember which film but there was this scene where a police officer is reporting to his senior and it goes like this;
Junior cop : "Sir something is wrong"
Senior cop : "You mean something is not right?"
Yeah, that's an actual scene in an actual film!
I know all the dialogues from DDLJ (winks). See I told you I am total filmy (smiles).
Hahaha..too many man, too many!
Any actors you want to add with the director in the same island? (winks)
Oooh..all the good female actors so I can do all the films they're getting offered.
Message to fellow movie buffs?
Don't go by the frills of a film. I often find people going to the movies for the wrong reasons and then getting disappointed. And I find myself asking them "yeah what else did you expect? " So my advice would be to watch a film for its story, script, and performances and not for the music or the locations it's been shot at!
So tell me about your future projects?
My film 'Tu Hai Mera Sunday' is premiering at the BFI London Film Festival so I'm really looking forward to that. I've done a few ads which should be coming on air soon. End of the year I'll also be traveling overseas with my play. And apart from that, I'm looking for more exciting work (smiles).
Wish you all the best for your future projects Maanvi and thank you for being a part of my chat series.
What Would I Like To Be Remembered For?
Have you ever thought of leaving a mark in the world? After such a long time, I saw something that really touched and intrigued me – Seagrams 100 Pipers' commercial. This made me introspect about what I should be remembered for? The inner voice echoed the sentiments conveyed in the commercial viz. 'Be Remembered For Good'. The goodness you bring out in others, the goodness you want to spread through your writing, the smiles you can spread on the faces of others with your stories and characters. That motivated me to give wings to my new character Alfie (from my upcoming novel – Alfie The Elf) who is a 14-year-old midget and is one of the closest characters I have given life to.
To give you a heads up about the book and character of Alfie, let me tell you he does not have a great life. He is an orphan and he is a midget due to which he gets ridiculed and taunted every day by everyone around him, and after few failed attempts to increase his height, he writes to Santa to fulfill his wish. When his wish is not fulfilled by Santa on a Christmas Day, he goes out in search of Santa along with his two friends Bullet – a pug and Pedro – an Owl to demand a reason for not fulfilling his wish. On his journey, he meets a lot many mythical creatures like the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, a Snowman and an evil wizard hell-bent on becoming the master of the Universe. Through his innocence and lovely demeanor he is able to spread joy to everyone he meets in the journey.

It made me think if Alfie as a character brings joy to so many characters he meets in my story, why not extend that to real life kids too who are like him – orphan and underprivileged. Therefore, I decided to come up with a Trust named – Alfie For Kids where I will be donating the entire proceeds from the sale of Alfie series which could be used for the benefit of educating and upkeep of underprivileged kids.
When I look back and see, great authors like Enid Blyton, Jane Austin or near home Ruskin Bond and R K Narayan. These great legends are remembered for their characters viz. The Famous Five kids, Rusty, Swami, Elizabeth Bennet or Mr. Darcy, etc. Like them and every other author and storyteller in this world, even I want to be remembered for my stories and characters. However, now I want to go beyond and do something for the world. Something that my character Alfie and his friends in the story believes in doing. So this Christmas season when my new book gets released and Alfie comes knocking at your door, welcome him to your life and give him your love and appreciate him for the cause he stands for. As, with every sale of the book, he will get more power and magic to fulfill the wishes of any underprivileged kid in this world. This will not only help Alfie and the kids but will also give me a reason to smile as somewhere in time, I might be remembered for the good cause I was associated with through my character Alfie.
PS: Let me share the video that inspired me to 'Be Remembered For Good'

Alfie The Elf – My New Novel!
It's been a while since Knocked Up my debut novel released and I have been getting a lot of inquiries from my fans and readers asking about my next book. So finally after 6 years my next novel is going to release this 'Children's Day' i.e. 14th November, titled Alfie The Elf.
Alfie is one of my favorite characters I have created and I am proud to say that I finished the manuscript in 7 days flat. Alfie is cute, he is brave, he is magical and he believes in making this world a beautiful place to live for each and every kind of being. He goes through a lot of hardships in life but he never gives up on hope and faith which leads him to become a real life HERO!
I approached a lot of publishers in India who discouraged me from releasing this book saying Christmas and Santa Claus themed books will never do well in India, as readers will not accept a local author writing about the same. They also told me that because of this reason, there are no Indian books based on these themes. I was also advised by few literary agents to change my name to a foreign sounding name so that publishers and readers will accept my book. However, when I did a small research group study involving 100 individuals of different age groups, where I handed over chapters of Alfie they all came back saying that it is a wonderful story and they want to read the full book, in turn giving me the confidence to release my book independently. Sorry if I sound pompous and trying to pull up your expectations for the book, but wait until it is released, I am sure you will love Alfie :).
Now you might ask who is my target audience. Then the answer is anybody and everybody who has a child hidden within him/her will love this book :). Now, here is the synopsis of Alfie The Elf for you all. Also, I will be posting a few sample chapters along with the original cover for the book in a couple of days. I hope you love the book and Alfie the way I loved creating him 🙂
Synopsis: Alfie is a 14-year-old orphaned midget. He has just one wish – to grow tall. He believes that would help him gain lots of adoring friends and even impress Charlene, the girl of his dreams. He tries all tricks and tips to increase his height, but to no avail. Finally, he pins all his hopes on a miracle by writing to Santa and stays 'good' through the year. Christmas arrives, but Alfie's wish doesn't get fulfilled. Hurt, and deeply disappointed, Alfie runs away from his orphanage to look for Santa. That is only the beginning of a fantastical journey that takes him across mythical lands where he meets creatures straight out of fairy tales. With a wicked wizard out to dominate the universe and a worried Santa with his share of woes, Alfie has his hands full. Will he be able to achieve his dream? With the help of his best friend, Bullet, a pug and Pedro, an owl, he just might!
To grab a copy of Alfie The Elf please visit any of the leading bookstores eg; Amazon.com, Amazon.in, Flipkart, Branes&Noble, Infibeam, Shopclues etc. or just click here

Let's Talk Films With Tara Alisha Berry!
In the hordes of so many star kids in the industry, there is one girl who stands high because of her talent and talent only. I am not saying this because she is my bestie but she has truly defined herself in that mold. After entertaining us with Love Games, Mastram, and The Perfect Girl, I have Taasha Alisha Berry talking about her 'filmygiri'! So here are excerpts from our conversation.

Movie Review: 'PINK' Is The New Black!
This week apart from the sloppy horror fest Raaz Reboot, one also witnessed the release of a small but dark movie by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury – PINK. Produced by Rashmi Sharma and Shoojit Sarkar, starring megastar Amitabh Bachchan, Tapsee Pannu, Kriti Kulhari, Andrea Taring, Angad Bedi and Piyush Mishra, PINK is a gritty and dark take on crimes done on women in a city like Delhi.
Three girls – Minal Arora (Taapsee Pannu), Falak Ali (Kirti Kulhari) and Andrea (Andrea Tariang) are staying together as tenants in a posh South Delhi locality and are normal working professionals in their respective fields. One night, after a rock concert they accept a dinner invitation from Rajveer (Angad Bedi), who is a relative of a powerful politician, and two others to a resort in Surajkund, Haryana. Rajveer is known to Minal through a common friend and therefore they go with the boys. Rajveer and his friends get drunk and try to molest Minal and her two roommates. Minal in the heat of the hour smashes a bottle on Rajveer's face hurting his eye, leaving him bleeding.
In retaliation, Rajveer and his friends try to vacate the girls from their houses, threaten them over the phone and also abduct Minal and physically assault her. Minal is forced to file a FIR against Rajveer and his friends. Upon realization Rajveer lodges a wrong FIR against the girls, labeling them as prostitutes, using his powerful connections. Minal is charged for 'Attempt to murder' and for soliciting, where she could face imprisonment for more than 10 years if convicted.
Deepak Sehgal (Amitabh Bachchan) is a lawyer suffering from bipolar disorder who experiences frequent mood swings and has an ailing wife. He is also a neighbor of the three girls and witness their troubles & agrees to represent the girls in the court. The film revolves around how Deepak fights the girls' case against these influential boys in the court.
Performances in the movie are a highlight. Every actor justifies their respective characters. Among the girls Tapsee Pannu and Kriti Kulhari do a wonderful job. This is the first time that these two actresses have got a meaty role to dig their teeth into. Amitabh Bachchan is in a great phase of his career. The legend is getting some of the best characters in his second innings which would make any actor from his generation envious of him. Angad Bedi is quite effective and so are the actors playing his friends. Dhritiman Chatterjee and Piyush Mishra in the role of a judge and prosecutor quite remarkably.
The story, screenplay, and dialogues are quite powerful and not only gives the debutant director (in Hindi) Aniruddha a good scope to showcase his skills. The cinematography by Abhik Mukhopadhyay is quite nice and so is the editing by Bodhaditya Banerjee which is quite crisp. The background score is quite gripping however there is no scope for music in this realistic movie.
On the whole, this is a very good movie that everyone should watch at least once.
My Verdict: 4/5
Movie Review: Raaz Reboot A Great Spoof On Horror Movies!
Vikram Bhatt's obsession with the supernatural subjects is widely known and after making some really good movies in this genre viz. Raaz, 1920, Haunted 3D etc., he seems to have run out of ideas. Proof? In the last few years, movies like Raaz 3D, Shaapit, Creature 3D, 1920 London Returns etc. written or directed by him did not offer any novelty. However, I did go to watch Raaz Rebooted with a lot of expectations. One, for the franchise and two, I thought after few setbacks Vikram would have upped the game to bring back the audience's faith back in him. Alas, I was much disappointed. Anyway, more on that later. Let me start with my review.
Raaz Rebooted tells the story of Rehaan (Gaurav Arora) and Shaina (Kriti Kharbanda) who move back to Romania after Rehaan gets a lucrative job offer. The couple although married seem to have a lot going on between them after they shift to Romania. Although they stay under the same roof but they live in different rooms. Soon Rehaan gets busy with his work and Shaina seems to experience paranormal activities in the house, making her believe that the house is haunted. However, Rehaan dismisses her claims and chooses not to believe her which makes her feel more lonely and distant from him.
One day Shaina runs into her ex Aditya (Emraan Hashmi) who tells her that he is been getting nightmares about what is happening to her at her house. Although, she chooses to not believe him, but when Aditya explains each and every incident in detail which she is privy to, she believes him. Aditya also tells her that he knows the reason behind all these activities and Rehaan is keeping a dark secret with her. To find out if Aditya can help Shaina get rid of the evil spirit and what 'Raaz' Rehaan is hiding from her, you need to watch the movie.
Like pointed out by me in the start of the review, Vikram Bhatt disappoints the audience's expectations by making a 'khichdi' of all the horror movie plots he has made in the past and also from others and tries to serve as a new movie. The story does not offer anything new. The sequences do not provide anything new, nor does the movie offer any chills or thrills popularly associated with this genre. All the more, one can easily predict how the movie is going to unfold and there is no surprise element. The scenes with the Raven, wall crawling and bent backward pose by the possessed woman or the possessed woman eating insects, eye in the wash basin etc are done to death. The only twist he has given is that no mantra just 'Mangalsutra' is the biggest 'hathyar' against evil spirits. If Vikram Bhatt had put it across that he is making a spoof of horror movies then I am sure this would have been a great show and tell example
Performances by the lead actors are again a mixed bag. Emraan brings on board his years of acting experience and therefore does not disappoint. Gaurav Arora is promising, although the first sequence of the movie when he and Kriti's character are shown entering the house, his expression seems to be flat and wooden, however, if you excuse that one scene, you will see a potential powerhouse of a talent in the rest of the movie. Few scenes stand out like the confrontation scene with Emraan Hashmi and the emotional breakdown scene towards the end of the movie, Gaurav stands his ground. A great outing for Gaurav and I am sure in the coming days he will only get better. Kriti Kharbanda in her debut Hindi movie seems to be quite amateur and does a bad job, especially in emotional scenes and her possession scenes. If any other actor would have got an author backed role, she would have made a kill for it, alas, Kriti falls flat on her face. I would rather blame Vikram for not extracting the best out of her, the way he did with Bipasha in the first 'Raaz' movie.
The music by Jeet Ganguly and Sangeet-Siddharth Haldipur is quite nice but not as good as the first movie in the series (I am sorry for comparing both movies, as I feel, the first movie was the best in this series and I am glad even the producers Mukesh and Mahesh Bhatt has realized that they do not have anything fresh to bring to table, therefore, announcing this to be the last in the series.)
The cinematography by Manoj Soni is superb, the way the snow laden landscapes of Romania are captured is breathtaking. Also, the set designer has done a great job bringing to life some really great pieces of Romanian furniture on screen.
On the whole, the movie is a spoof on horror movies, rather than being a horror fest. Moreover, I would like to give my rating only for the music and performances by Gaurav and Emraan. Sorry, this movie didn't work for me at all.

This particular week in January is often a difficult one for me. It marks the anniversary of my mother's death. It's been 4 years now and I still miss her. I think of something I want to tell her and start to reach for the phone only to realize she's not there. I had one of those moments this week as I cleaned a bathroom mirror – yes, a bathroom mirror. My mom was a stickler for cleaning and very particular, so I learned to clean early and well – smooth, even, horizontal strokes from bottom to top so the cleaner didn't have a chance to streak your fresh work! I smiled as I saw the first sparkling swipes and thought about calling to tease her about the lessons in cleaning only to remember she was no longer there.
My mind moved to some of the other things deeply ingrained by mamma: never call boys, always wear clean underwear, speak when spoken to, always be polite, be respectful to your elders, say please and thank you, to mention just a few (there are a LOT of rules in the South).
Then I thought of a conversation I'd just had with my daughter where she'd expressed gratitude for something I'd taught her. We always tried to evaluate situations based on the principle, "does this matter in the face of eternity". She was grateful for the truth, as she'd shared the principle with a friend who'd found it to be helpful as well.
As I cleaned, I wondered if there was anything of eternal significance in the lessons that I'd learned from my mother. While those lessons are not insignificant, they represented Southern culture, not faith, and I walked away from the mirror sad.
But in God's goodness, in the stillness of this snowy morning, He reminded me that He did use my mother's family to provide some lessons of tremendous eternal significance for me. While this is by no means an exhaustive family or thank you list, there are a few things that have helped form the good part of who I am today. And for those things, I'd like to say a public thank you.
Service is an excellent way to show love – thank you Aunt Lib, especially for sweet potato biscuits and taking care of me .
Art is worship and lifts the soul – thank you Aunt Margaret, especially for Polonaise and paint.
For showing me that love takes on many forms, all sacrificial (like the White House), that faithfulness stays put, that love encourages when you feel like the black sheep and are lost and not sure what to do – thank you Sarah!
Some people love so much, they worry about their dogs going heaven, and their cousins too, so they love and pray and they make time for you and your children, in their lives, even when they're at the end of theirs – thank you Ruthie!
And last, but far from least, some people are really good at loving unconditionally when you least deserve it, and making a place for you in their heart, home, prayers, and hugs. They take you in when you have no real home and make you feel like it's OK to just be you – thank you Margie!
said better than I could!
Not my strong suit, to automatically say thank you when a trial hits.
And so it was when I returned home, well after dark, from a long, hot day in a non air conditioned office. Sweaty and tired, I pushed the garage door opener, but nothing happened. Now, this was not altogether surprising because the power frequently goes out on my block; but no, the garage door was sitting forlornly with the chain off the track. Try as I might, I couldn't get the chain to stay on the sprocket and so I just gave up - I mean, a garage is nice but it's not a necessity, right? It could wait.
To the rescue came my friend Jon. His FB post reminded me that he was good with mechanical things. That train of thought reminded me that we just hadn't visited in quite a while; I didn't know what was going on in his life. So, a broken garage door became an opportunity to have a meal together, sweat in the closed, over 100 degree garage together, and then sit again, talking and eating ice cream together after the garage door was fixed. Note the word "together".
So, thank you, God for the broken garage door. It was so good to catch up with my young friend, see what you were doing in his life and just live life together for an evening.

Visit by Sir Paul Maxime Nurse, President of the Royal Society
View : 6602 Date : 2014-03-11 Writer : ed_news
Sir Paul Maxime Nurse, who is an English geneticist and cell biologist, visited KAIST and gave a lecture entitled The Great Ideas of Biology on March 11, 2014.
Sir Paul was awarded the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Leland H. Hartwell and R. Timothy Hunt for their discoveries of protein molecules that control the division of cells in the cell cycle.
He was Professor of Microbiology at the University of Oxford, CEO of the Imperial Cancer Research Fund and Cancer Research UK, and President of Rockefeller University in New York. Sir Paul is currently the President of the Royal Society as well as Director and Chief Executive of the Francis Crick Institute.
Founded in London in 1660, the Royal Society is composed of the world's most distinguished scientists drawn from all areas of science, engineering, and medicine.
Below is a summary of his lecture, The Great Ideas of Biology:
Four major ideas of biology are the theory of genes, evolution by natural selection, the proposal that the cell is the fundamental unit of all life, and the chemical composition of a cell. <?xml:namespace prefix = o />
When considering the question "what is life?" these ideas come together. The special way cells reproduce provides the conditions by which natural selection takes place, allowing living organisms to evolve. The organization of chemistry within the cell provides explanations for life's phenomena.
In addition, an emerging idea is the nature of biological self-organization with which living cells and organisms process information and acquire specific forms. These great ideas have influenced one another and changed the way we perceive biology and science today.

I have started a new forum as I seem to have lost the one that had been started by Anita. I hope we can meet up in Amsterdam for a coffee Anita - that would be good. Which airport are you travelling from?
I'm Sarita and will be travelling to Peru on Sunday leaving from Heathrow. I'll try and make contact in Amsterdam.
Have you two packed yet?


Hey guys, so I've been doing a little research and have decided on having the i5 8600K with a GTX 1060 6gb and 256/500gb ssd with a 1/2 TB hhd. in terms on the list on components listed above for an AMD and Intel build, would it differ much with these components I want to get it sub 2K?
With the AMD list you could easily go down to a Ryzen 2600(x) and use the cash on a 2TB hard drive.
Personally I would stick with the Ryzen if you step down a tier as the 2600(x) has 6 cores 12 threads versus the 8600k's 6core 6 threads.
Could step down to 3000 CL16 RAM. A 256GB SSD would save you maybe $50 over a 500GB, but the extra fast space is certainly worth it. Remember you could save upwards of 10% with the holiday season sales coming up. That'll bring down your cost from 2k to 1.8k easily.
I would definitely not skimp on the PSU, the ones i've listed are very high quality, they should have 7 year warranties and they will certainly last that long. You'll be able to keep it for any future builds you do, same with the case.
Ah ok, will have a look into it.
Pbtech, Playtech, Computer Lounge. Maybe a few other online retailers.
Things that'll likely come down are mobo, psu, ssd, hdd, case. CPU, RAM and GFX unlikely to see more than 5-10% unless something drops the price heavily.
Amazon of course being 'murican will have decent discounts happening on black friday, if you're up for that avenue of obtaining parts.
Also to add to my previous comment. Reason I recommend the ryzen for more threads is that some recent games use upwards of eight eg. the recent Battlefields. All current i7's (except 9700, its now the i9) have hyperthreading for 4c 8t which made them last longer than the i5's which stuttered at 4c 4t. All Ryzen 2xxx cpus have double threads and can clock to 4.2GHz which make them better on value in the mid-range, plus you can use the motherboard (AM4) for the next gen ryzen coming out around april next year.
The gain from multithreading in gaming is not as big as the gain from using those funds for a better graphics card. Especially as it is only beneficial in some games.
You could also drop the fully modular power supply to save a bit more there.
absolutely, easy. are you still interested in this thread?
hey guys, so pretty much have decided what my final build was and getting ready to buy parts on black friday but heres the issue. there not really that many z370 mobos available on pb tech as the new z390 are out. would the z390 work with the i5 8600k and is it worth spending an extra $50-100 on a z390 or should i get the z370 form like mighty ape etc?
Yes z390 will work with coffeelake. No it's not really worth it unless you can quantify the expensive with a mobo that has better features eg. high speed usb or better power delivery. Can look at amazon if you finding limited availability.
To be honest, the motherboard is the hardest piece to pick given how much is bundled in to it.
This mobo info doesn't just apply to z390. Every platform will have boards that are inconsistent with power delivery quality. You often have to search deep to get comparisons of boards.
Same reason why you can't really just go with a power supply by the number of Watts on the sticker (or the bronze/silver/gold rating). You have to take a good look at how it performs versus the watts/price ratio.
Now the question is, with what is left on mighty ape, playtech, computer lounge and PB. What would be ab decent Z370 mobo without breaking the bank? I initially wanted MSI Z370 TOMAHAWK or ASRock Z370 Extreme 4 ATX Motherboard but can't seem to find them anymore.
Also would the 550W be enough? some people I've asked said it will be fine with this build.

Materials Science and Engineering: Nanotechnology
Imagine building materials atom by atom, layer by layer, with desired structure and composition. With nanotechnology and materials science, we are already doing just that.
The field of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology as an area within Materials Science spans the discovery, fabrication, characterization, modeling and end-use of nanoscale materials.
One of the most interesting things about nanotechnology is that the properties of materials may change when the size scale of their dimensions approaches nanometers. Materials scientists work to understand and control those property changes and find new applications for nanostructures of well-known materials.
Nanotechnology at UMD
Materials Science and Engineering is at the heart of Nanotechnology whether it leads to advances in electronics and quantum computing, bioengineering, mechanical engineering, or other disciplines. For those who are passionate about nanotechnology, majoring in MSE is a natural path for research, coursework, and the most experience in nanotechnology. The MSE department also administers the Interdisciplinary Minor Program in Nanoscale Science and Technology (NanoS&T Minor), a program open to students majoring in Engineering (including MSE), Physics, or Chemistry.
How is MSE at UMD Working with Nanotechnology?
Saving Silver: MSE Professor Raymond Phaneuf's research group, in collaboration with conservators at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore have developed atoms-thick coatings designed to protect silver artifacts from tarnish and corrosion longer and more effectively than nitrocellulose lacquers. More...
Volumes So Small, a Drop of Water is a Lake: Members of the undergraduate Class of 2008 studied the behavior of fluids at the nanoliter level, and proposed a "micro-mixer" design that could enhance the performance of lab technologies used in chemical engineering, biology, bioengineering, DNA analysis, and pharmacology. More...
Tiny, Threat-Detecting Lasers: MSE Professor Aris Christou "grows" lasers at the mico- and nano-scale that are used as sensors detect biological threats. More...
How Do You Test a Device You Can't See? MSE Professor John Cumings and his research group have developed a new electron microscopy technique that will allow scientists to test nanoscale devices in real-time while they are observed in a transmission electron microscope. More...
"Growing" Computer Components: MSE Professor Raymond Phaneuf has developed a template nature can follow to produce "self-assembling" structures. The template causes atoms to be arranged in a defined pattern that can serve a variety of purposes—a semiconductor in a laptop, a component in a cell phone or a sensor in a wearable device. More...
Positioning Nanoparticles Where You Need Them: Professor Oded Rabin and his graduate student have developed techniques to position silver nanocubes in predetermined locations on a substrate (surface). These techniques are needed to study interactions between neighboring particles. In recent work the group succeeded to show that pairs of silver nanocubes, positioned face-to-face or edge-to-face, are very effective as chemical sensors utilizing a phenomena called Raman scattering. More...
Examples of Nanotechnology
This is a carbon nanotube, just a bit over 1 nanometer in width (100 nanometers is 1000 times smaller than the width of a human hair). Nanotubes are up to 100 times stronger than steel at only 1/6 the weight. They have a thermal conductivity near that of diamonds, and an electrical conductivity that can exceed that of copper. Inside this nanotube are "buckyballs", spherical carbon molecules. This combination has the potential to be used to create nanomechanical structures.
Professor Oded Rabin's research group is modeling the efficiency with which a nanowire can convert heat into electrical energy.
Professor Gary Rubloff's research group is designing nano-sized structures capable of storing solar or wind energy 10x more efficiently than what is currently available.

The three-term incumbent hopes to rouse an under-represented voting base.
BATON ROUGE – U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu is courting young voters in several appearances across Louisiana this week, talking about her support for legislation that could lower students' college costs.
The Democratic incumbent, locked in a tight race for re-election, is making stops at colleges in Baton Rouge, New Orleans and Shreveport.
She's describing her work on bills that would lower student loan interest rates and raise Pell Grant awards. Most importantly, she's urging the typically low-turnout group to show up to the polls on Nov. 4.
"This election matters. The outcome of these races really matter, so I need you all to vote. I need you to talk to your friends. And I need you all to get on Facebook and Twitter and tweet these things out and help people to understand there's an important election coming up," Landrieu told about 70 students Tuesday in a speech at Baton Rouge Community College.
On Wednesday, she spoke at Dillard University, and on Friday she was scheduled to be at Centenary College in Shreveport.
Considered vulnerable, Landrieu is looking for new voters who could make the difference in her tough bid for a fourth term. Her main Republican challengers are U.S. Rep. Bill Cassidy and retired Air Force Col. Rob Maness, a tea party favorite. The national GOP is targeting Landrieu in its effort to retake control of the Senate.
Landrieu framed her college affordability initiative as an effort to grow middle-income voters in her poverty-ridden state. Census data recently showed one in five people in Louisiana lives in poverty. Meanwhile, state higher education financing has been cut $700 million since 2008 and college tuition rates have been rising annually.
The senator's proposal includes two bills: one to double the maximum Pell Grant award available through the need-based federal aid program and another to let student loan borrowers refinance their debt at lower interest rates.
"These students have ambition. They have intelligence. They have the drive. Their parents just don't have a fat checkbook, and that should not be a detriment to their advancement," Landrieu said.
The bills are lingering in the Senate.
Asked about Landrieu's proposals, Cassidy didn't directly say whether he supported such ideas. Instead, he said issues of college affordability and college degree effectiveness should be considered in a "more global reform," rather than in a piecemeal approach.
Cassidy hasn't taken the same targeted approach with college-age voters that Landrieu is using, instead following the more traditional route of recruiting young volunteers who speak to student organizations about the Republican congressman and reach out on college campuses for voter support.
"We don't segregate out younger voters out from every other voter," he said after an endorsement event Wednesday.


It must have been an omen for missing yoemen when former Cats footballer-singer and latter day National Party Federal MP Damian Drum lost his 2017 Yarra Park waltz partner Barnaby Joyce - because of an autumn baby.
Instead statuesque Warrnambool born Danielle Green - Parliamentary Secretary for Tourism, Major Events and Regional Victoria and state ALP member for Yan Yean since 2002, introduced headliners - The Black Sorrows - outside the Colosseum just before the first bounce inside.
Here far away from the drive-by shootings, car-jackings and home invasions of the big smoke and city's mean streets were agrarian volunteers who fed the masses and kept them safe before and after fire, flood, droughts and pestilence.
CFA, SES, Food Bank, Case, VFF, Deni Ute Muster, Royal Agricultural Show , Vixens volunteers and a myriad of organic country produce stalls were welcome islands in the mainstream of inner suburbia.
This reviewer passed on the wood chopping, whip cracking, camel rides and face painting for a good reason.
Former Essendon coach and multi-media game promoter Kevin Sheedy was lugging and hugging babies and kissing buxom belles while perfecting his Pied Piper performance with telephonic trysts of selfies on demand.
Sheeds was a promotional prince with few peers despite cultural commotion across the ocean as Chicago gospel preacher Michael Curry ignited the spring wedding of a Pommy bloke and a Yank belle with the soundtrack featuring a choir reviving the Ben E King classic Stand By Me.
Luckily, young Harry put the ring on Miss Markle - not Agatha Christie's spinster Miss Marple or German gal Angela Merkel.
But there appeared to menacing Midsomer murders mist descending on this picturesque park.
And, it wasn't just Quambatook refugee John Williamson turning his strine into a dark art form by backing Essendon in the annual clash.
No blame could be attached to Melbourne singer Michelle Gardiner who reprised her 2017 entrée role of kicking the dew off the grass with guitarist Steve O'Hern.
This year Michelle added drummer Nathan Brincau in a trio and revived Oklahoma oriole Carrie Underwood's hit Last Name for early arrivals.
She then chose Some Days You Gotta Dance from expatriate Australasian superstar Keith Urban's pre solo fame era and his hook heavy hit To Love Somebody .
Gardiner also gave exposure to the biggest country artist of the decade - Kentucky Coalminer's son Chris Stapleton - by performing Say Something , his duet hit with Justin Timberlake.
She name checked headliners The Black Sorrows before performing She Talks To Angels - by the Black Crows .
Gardiner, mother of two, also performed "another song I stole from the radio" for her dancing kids before closing with Shania Twain's If You Are Not In It For Love, I'm Outta Here .
But Gardiner was not out of here.
Kevin Sheedy relieved himself of baby lugging and hugging duties to give congratulatory kisses to the artist who announced she would attend the Melbourne concert by Twain - a Lyme disease and divorce survivor.
Singer-songwriter actor Darren Coggan perfected a five minute changeover to announce he made the trip from the banks of the Murrumbidgee at Wagga Wagga to debut in the green, green grass of this park near the Yarra.
So it was no surprise he chose The Bidgee from his sixth album The Wide Horizon as his entrée.
"The Bidgee was home to me in the land that has been in the Wiradjuri for thousands of years," the singer announced.
Soon it was time to head north to reincarnate the late Peter Allan classic Tenterfield Saddler before honouring Adelaide refugee Paul Kelly, "an Essendon supporter," with his hit Leaps And Bounds.
Coggan also honoured his farming family with his original song Hughie - a tale that personalised the paternal plight of a protracted drought that forced his dad to sell their Riverina family farm to pay off the bank loan and precluded a fourth generation farming the once fertile plains.
It was a nice segue into James Reyne- Australian Crawl tune Reckless - the only revamped tune on his new album.
Coggan, 45 and father of two, then emulated Gardiner as he introduced another of his originals - A Beautiful Ride.
"I wrote this next song to my kids for a Christmas present, they thought they were going to get a skateboard," the singer quipped.
For familiarity fans he explained his role as Cat Stevens in his popular musical Peace Train had launched his next song Wild World .
Trivia buffs may recall that the same song was recorded by Warrnambool dentist's son and Wild Cherries and Hit & Run lead singer Dan Robinson as the Fourth House in 1970 .
Robinson, now an Anglesea luthier, replaced Mike Brady as the chosen vocalist and was paid a flat $50 for the session by Fable producer Ron Tudor.
Coggan then dedicated another Cat Stevens song Father And Son to his folks who would soon be on the road again back to Wagga Wagga.
His fitting finale was The Wide Horizon that he augmented with a dance mix of Down Under that was launched by former Melbourne band Men At Work at the nearby Cricketers Arms Hotel in Punt Road .
Coggan was a hard act to follow so your reviewer decided to support the rural produce merchants by sampling home cooked delicacies while he searched for a distant Damian Drum.
The food was tasty and provided the energy needed to kick a mini Powercor football into my psyche and travelling bag.
Sadly, my errant wandering prevented me hearing the early songs by Quambatook refugee John Williamson.
But I recognised the strine strained Mallee Boy, True Blue and Girt By Sea propelled by an accent that had not been softened by secondary education at Scotch College in leafy Hawthorn.
I also knew I would hear Williamson's droll delivery of Waltzing Matilda on centre field, not the John Fogerty song, before the big game.
In hindsight, when Williamson revealed he hoped Essendon would win, I realised it was a not so secret ruse to lure the Cats players into a late afternoon slumber.
Artistically, I had a nocturnal date to watch fellow dairy farmer's son and latter day Scotch College media-arts teacher and house master Michael Waugh, perform his heartfelt fraternal song Little C Word from his second album The Asphalt & The Oval on Nu Country TV.
Waugh's vocal delivery and wry word play on a song that referenced football and cancer remission, seemed more accessible to this country boy.
The tempo lifted when the honourable Danielle Green MP gave a short explanation of the festival's raison d'etre before introducing the Black Sorrows .
"I moved from Warrnambool to Mildura at 16 and was immediately warmly welcomed by country community spirit of football and netball teams," Danielle revealed in a salient speech.
But it was not the first time she has supported country music.
Green visited the post-Black Saturday Whittlesea country music recovery festival and bought the Vinnies After The Fire CD featuring Long Beach, California born latter day NSW coast singer-songwriter Kevin Welch's song Marysville and others including fellow home town hombre Shane Howard.
The Black Sorrows may be perceived as a roots rock act by country purists but won a Tamworth Golden Guitar in 1991 for their classic Harley & Rose .
Multi-cultural lead singer Joe Camilleri, third of 10 children, was born in Malta and moved here with his family at the age of two.
And his track record with bands diverse as the King Bees, Adderley Smith Blues Band, The Pelaco Brothers, Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons, The Revelators and Black Sorrows , earns him an unclaimed title as a poster person for post war immigration.
His musical longevity, celebrated on his 70 th birthday two days after this gig, also meant he was generous to band members including long time guitarist Jeff Burstin and new keyboard player John McCormack.
Joe's sextet kicked off with his fifth album title track Hold On To Me and reached Harley & Rose as their third song as Kevin Sheedy hand-balled the baby in his arms to mama and planted kisses on show opener Gardiner's rosy cheeks.
"This is just an old fashioned love song, I was wearing a hat back then," Joe joked as a hat-less Sheedy, aptly clad in a bomber jacket, led a conga line of selfie seekers through the front of stage hay bales.
"Jeff and I were in a band called Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons ," Joe added as he introduced The Shape I'm In with his multi-coloured psychedelic sax riding high on his shoulder.
The singer shared band members' dynamic dexterity and ecumenical team preferences with fans as they brought their show to a stunning climax with another 1988 hit Chained To The Wheel and Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl from 10 th album One Mo Time in 2004.
I received the message loud and clear.
With no sign of Damian Drum, who once sang the Beat Farmers biblical belter Gun Sale At The Church on the Geelong players' bus in his 63 game career, it was time to head back upstairs to the 50 year members enclosure.
Maybe Drum still had nightmares about his three year career as Fremantle coach from 2001 and feared being recalled into Ross Lyon's den.
So I declined the kind knee rug offer to fellow elders in the evening chill as I sensed disaster on the horizon when John Williamson sang Waltzing Matilda .
But, like other bush born and bred survivors, I was appreciative of the pre-game CFA Volunteers Guard of Honour on the hallowed turf.
They may not have enabled a Geelong victory but they protected homesteads, humans, livestock, plant, machinery, farms, fences and townsfolk from natural disasters and arsonists free on bail and parole creating havoc at the drop of a match.
Soon the billabong jumbucks would escape the suburban Swaggies and chase the felines suffering cat-scratch fever until they headed west on Highway One to boomerang against Carlton .

Архимандрит Фотий (в миру Григорий Фёдорович Щиревский; 1811, Орловская губерния — 1877, Новгород-Северский) — архимандрит Русской православной церкви, духовный писатель и .

Биография
Родился в 1811 году в семье протоиерея Брянского уезда Орловской губернии.

Образование получил в Орловской духовной семинарии, откуда поступил в Киевскую духовную академию, и здесь окончил курс в 1837 году одним из первых магистров.

1 сентября 1837 года он был определён на службу при Киевской академии бакалавром по кафедре Святого писания.

В 1838 году Григорий Фёдорович Щиревский был пострижен в монашество с именем Фотий, а три года спустя возведен в сан соборного иеромонаха.

В 1844 году Фотий был переведён в недавно открывшуюся вновь Казанскую духовную академию на должность профессора по кафедре церковного красноречия (гомилетики) и сразу занял там видное положение, как член конференции, а с 1845 года, как член внешнего правления и цензурного комитета.

В 1846 году он был определён на должность инспектора академии и 8 сентября того же года возведён в сан архимандрита, с присвоением ему лично степени настоятеля третьеклассного монастыря.

Определением Святого Синода от 25 сентября 1850 года Фотий был назначен ректором Смоленской духовной семинарии и профессором богословских наук, с званием настоятеля второклассного Спасо-Авраамиева монастыря.

Затем, в 1858 году, он был перемещён на ректорскую же должность в Тифлисскую семинарию. В 1860 году переведён ректором в Костромскую духовную семинарию и архимандритом Богородицкого Игрицкого монастыря, однако в должность не вступил.

В 1860 году назначен ректором Полтавской духовной семинарии. В 1861 году он был вызван в столицу Российской империи город Санкт-Петербург на чреду священнослужения и проповедования Слова Божия и назначен членом петербургского духовно-цензурного комитета, на каковой должности состоял до 15 декабря 1869 года, когда был уволен от службы.

Поле этого Фотий некоторое время жил сперва в Задонском, потом в Благовещенском монастыре Воронежской епархии, а в 1874 году назначен настоятелем Новгород-Северского Спасопреображенского первоклассного монастыря (Черниговской епархии), где и оставался до конца жизни.

Скончался  года.

«Русский биографический словарь» сообщал:… он не обладал в достаточной степени практическою опытностью, необходимою для административной деятельности; не мог похвалиться и здоровьем, которое часто изменяло ему. Однако все это не препятствовало ему выступать в свете с учёно-литературными произведениями. Имя его весьма известно в духовной литературе.

В числе его публикаций:
 Слово в вечернее богослужение. — [Санкт-Петербург, 1863]. - 6 с.
 Крест Христов — бесценное сокровище наше / А. Ф. — Санкт-Петербург: тип. А. Траншеля, 1868. — 24 с.
 Правда божия в видимой природе. — [Санкт-Петербург]: тип. журн. «Странник», ценз. 1869. — 11 с.
 Святая православная церковь — любвеобильная мать и великая благодетельница наша. — Санкт-Петербург, ценз. 1866. — 10 с.
 Шествие господа Иисуса Христа на вольные страдания и крестную смерть / [Архим. Фотий]; Изд. Рус. Свято-Ильин. скита на Афоне. — Одесса, ценз. 1869. — 8 с.
