They know what they're doing in the latte department. Ho yes.
Years ago, I worked in North Carolina as a Camp Leader for Camp America. I did it for three years and had around 180 teenagers in my charge at any one time. Let's not think about that.
I was also responsible for the counsellors, who were looking after these teens. These counsellors were from all over the world, and included Lou from Brisbane Australia and Ami from London.
Anyway, they met on camp, they fell in love over a cook-out campfire and now they both live in Oz. And obviously this happy ending is ENTIRELY down to me.
ALL the syrup…. these hotcakes were absolutely lip smackingly amazingly good.
So, this very happy couple make a trip back to London every so often, to catch up with friends (me!) and family and because London is hamazing.
The choosing of the eatery was my responsibility and I knew exactly where we'd be heading – Aussi chef Bill Granger's Granger & Co.
Granger & Co reflects the sunny, easy-going and generous Australian spirit – when the first restaurant opened in Sydney, it quickly became known and loved for its legendary breakfasts, served at a communal table, where locals and travellers, families and friends, were welcomed.
Twenty years on, there are Granger & Cos in Sydney, Seoul, Tokyo, Honolulu and London… and we were headed to the one in Kings Cross, which is fairly new and right outside the station – so a very easy location for everyone to get to.
We ordered lots and LOTS of delicious things and impressively justified it to ourselves, as Ami and his brother would finish off anything we couldn't manage. And why shouldn't brunch have more than one course? And why can't you have a pudding at breakfast time? Exactly.
No food was wasted (thank you, boys) every morsel was devoured and it was all utterly outstanding.
Suddenly the fire alarm went off and the staff (super calm and brilliant) ushered everyone outside the restaurant while they investigated. Luckily it had stopped raining, the sun was out and we had our coffees to keep us warm!
Lou took her coffee with her and somehow managed to keep her latte art intact as she drank it?! HOW?
Five minutes later the coast was pronounced clear and we were back in our seats, warming up with more teas and coffees and discussing how many hotcakes Ami could ACTUALLY eat if he HAD to.
It was so good to catch up with these specials of mine, and in such a bright, sunny and delicious place too.
I believe Granger & Co serves up one of the best brunches in London and if Kings Cross doesn't work for you, there are also branches in Notting Hill and Clerkenwell….
Go forth and brunch, team!

Tête-à-Tête with Manjiri Prabhu
Manjiri Prabhu is a talented mystery writer based in Pune, India. Her books have been published in India and the US. Some of her works have won awards and commendations from prestigious organizations worldwide.
Her published books include a. A Symphony of Hearts, Silver in the Mist, The Cosmic Clues, The Astral Alibi, and The Cavansite Conspiracy. She is also the author of Roles: Reel and Real, a non-fiction book on the role of women in Hindi films.
Manjiri Prabhu is currently working on two young adult novels, The Gypsies at Noelle's Retreat and The Gypsies on the Eurail.
By day, Manjiri is a Children's Television Producer and a short filmmaker. In her spare time she is deeply involved in Animal Welfare and well-being. She took some time off from her busy schedule to answer some questions about her writing life for Suprose. Here are some excerpts.
Why did you become a writer? Why do you write?
I write because it is my instinct. I can't help but write. And I discovered this urge very early in life. What channelised this urge on a conscious level were my early reading habits. I grew up, like many of us, on Enid Blyton, Nancy Drew and Agatha Christie books. And I dreamt of creating fictitious worlds which would seem more real than real. I knew at age seven that I wanted to be a writer and since then I've been struggling to be one.
What motivates you, makes you want to write?
Firstly, the need to tell a story. And secondly, the craving to create memorable characters, a world which is entirely mine but which will grow beyond me and last beyond me. Ultimately a human being lives on in the form of memories which are passed on from generation to generation. I would love to create a world which would create similar warm memories in the minds of the readers. If the readers would allow my characters into their hearts, and if my novels could live on, side-by-side with their own real-life, personal memories, I would feel honoured and blessed. This thought gives me a sense of satisfaction and prods me to write more.
What are the tools you use to inspire yourself? As in writing excercises, music and such?
Walking and lots of it. Then music, free-style dancing, playing with my dogs, interacting with my family and friends and lastly, whenever possible, traveling. Other than these, life in itself and its mysteries is a huge inspiration. The many unanswered questions, the twists and turns, the unpredictable and the unexpected, the enigma – everything to do with life is a full-on inspiration to write.
You write primarily mystery, why did you choose this genre?
Early in life I was influenced by Enid Blyton and Agatha Christie. This served a dual purpose – it not only provided me with my first inspiration to write but also handed me the genre on a platter. I loved mystery and I loved the way the children would have adventures and enjoy themselves. I was an avid reader and I knew then that this was what I wanted to write about – fun, adventure-filled stories which claimed that anything was possible, that good always triumphs over evil. On a deeper level, the mysteries introduced me to the games people play and the depth of the human psychology. Mystery is a genre which may appear blatantly simple at face value. But it has so much more to offer. It is an all-encompassing genre – it absorbs other genres within it. The insights into a human psyche, political upheavals, societal attitudes and issues, gender complexes, relationships and many more subjects can fall within the realm of this story-telling. Mystery writing provided me with the perfect platform to tackle various issues as well allowed me to garner readers of all ages from all strata of society.
And finally, writing a mystery novel is a challenge. It has to be written from three points of view – the Author's POV, the reader's POV and the POV of the Characters. The Author 'knows' it all but has to pretend that he/she doesn't; the element of surprise has to be retained throughout the novel for the reader and finally, the multiple layers of the characters have to be enigmatic and keep the mystery alive. It is the perfect equation between 'pretense', 'surprise' and 'enigma' which results in a good mystery novel and finding this balance is the real challenge, which I find fascinating and fulfilling.
How does it feel, to be a successful published writer of whom expectations are different, versus a writer who just wrote just because?
The fact that I am published doesn't alleviate the anxiety that goes hand-in-hand with the process of writing the novel and getting it published. I experience the same anxiety pangs today which I suffered during my first novel. As far as the expectations go, yes, it's a pressure. Not only because my readers expect a certain standard from me, but also because I myself would want to do better than my last effort. The pressure is also a trigger. A trigger to go beyond my boundaries, push my imagination farther than what I've already achieved and write as I've never written before.
Do you believe creativity is stifled when prose is categorized and clubbed into genres?
I believe that when a novel is destined to be born, nothing can stop it. Similarly, if I've chosen a genre I like to read and the ideas come instinctively to me, the genre is in fact supporting the creativity in me. Creativity can be stifled only if a writer chooses to create a contrived work with a specific market in mind, in a way like writing to a gallery, or if he deviates from his natural instinct. It isn't the genre then, but his or her attitude which could smother the creativity in him.
Many writers tend to be solitary animals, not savvy sales or marketing folks. For them toughest part is the sell. How did you navigate through this?
This is so true of me. I am a solitary animal. I love to be with my characters and in my fictitious world. But this just isn't enough anymore. If you want people to be aware of your book - leave alone read it - you have to take much more effort. And I find this extremely difficult - to step out and to promote your work. Today's definition of success is a result of skillful and smart marketing gimmicks. If you are good at it, you are successful. Reaching out to readers and interacting with them is a good thing. But promoting yourself almost like a brand, changes the focus from your work to yourself. I am still clueless as to how to work around this.
Your first book was also published in the US, how about the books that came after, were they also published outside of India?
My first two novels were published in India in 1994 and 1995. The next two novels, 'The Cosmic Clues' and its sequel 'The Astral Alibi' were published by Bantam/Dell, Random House USA in 2004 and 2006. My fifth novel The Cavansite Conspiracy' was again published by Rupa Publications, India in 2011. My forthcoming series, a YA mystery series, is being published by the Times Group Books, India, scheduled for 2013 release.
You recently won an award, can you give the details? Any other awards you have won? Please list them.
'The Cosmic Clues' was selected as a 'killer Book' by the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association of America, in 2004.
The Astral Alibi was honored as a 'Notable Fiction book' in the 'Kiriyama Prize, 2006'.
And now recently, The Butterfly & the Bee (BTB), a literary organization (in New Delhi) launched its first Indian literary awards based on readers' feedback. 'The Cavansite Conspiracy' was awarded the Best Mystery Book of 2012.
What do you read – for pleasure and for motivation?
I read everything that I can lay my hands on – from magazine, children books to spiritual ones.
If I were to look through your bedside reading pile what would I find?
An Enid Blyton book, an Agatha Christie, A Deepak Chopra meditation book and probably a Victoria Holt or a Jane Austen.
What is your next project? What are you working on?
I am working on a YA mystery series with Times Group Books. The first title is due for release in Feb/March 2013 and is called 'The Gypsies at Noelle's Retreat' – A Riva Parkar Mystery. This story takes place in Giverny and Paris. The second novel in the series is titled 'The Gypsies on the Eurail' and as the novel suggests, the Gypsies will be traveling through Europe and Riva Parkar, the main protagonist will solve a mystery. I am also working on a futuristic fantasy for another publisher but the project is right now tightly under wraps J

A student once told me that token economics was a type of economics created by J.R.R. Tolkien...Yes, the same guy who wrote Lord of the Rings. Sorry, but token economics is a behavioral approached used to change the behavior of patients with severe psychological disorders (although it can be used with anyone, this is often how we talk about it in psychology). Patients in a hospital are rewarded with tokens for exhibiting and performing desired behaviors. The tokens are then used to purchase things that the patient wants.
For example, extra time watching TV or playing a video game. In this way, patients learn to "modify" their "behavior" in order to receive tokens.


Have you ever thought about how exporting from Vietnam into Australia may help your business? Vietnam has experienced significant economic growth in the last 20 or 30 years and has been a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) since 2007. It has significant long-term potential for foreign traders, partly thanks to its skilled workforce and entrepreneurial spirit – but for many other reasons too. There are hundreds of Australian companies currently bringing Vietnamese goods into this country, many of them using freight forwarding companies such as TSL.
Australia imported AU$4.8 billion worth of goods from Vietnam in 2016-7. Our major imports from Vietnam include goods telecommunications equipment, footwear, monitors/projectors/TVs and furniture/mattresses/cushions. You can find out more about Australia's trading relationship with Vietnam in this report by Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. You can also get you can get more information about Vietnam's market profile from the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade).
Are you wanting to transport your goods into Australia using the cheapest method possible? Transporting consignments as sea freight from Vietnam is the best-value way of transferring goods the 5,200km or so between Australia and this Southeast Asian nation. Sea cargo typically takes between 20 and 30 days to reach Australia from Vietnam and is ideal if the items you're exporting from Vietnam are heavy or bulky.
Shipping goods on an aeroplane is, of course, much quicker than sending them with sea freight from Vietnam, and typically takes between one and six days. It is, however, more expensive than sending the goods via the ocean. The total time taken will depend on a number of factors, such as where your pick-up and delivery points are, and how much inland transportation is required in each country.
The ASEAN-Australia-New Zealand Free Trade Agreement (AANZFTA) has provided huge opportunities for exporting from Vietnam to Australia. This economic partnership has eliminated many import tariffs, making import customs from Vietnam much more manageable for all businesses, particularly smaller ones.
So What Export Tariff Will I Pay On My Goods?
Freight forwarding is the foundation of TSL's business and the area in which we excel. We are here to help with exports and imports, transportation by sea, air and road, customs clearance, warehousing and anything else you may need.

YWAM Barcelona started as a dream, Curtis and Patti Clewett, Hany and Mona Fouad, and many others began to sow vision and prayer over the city, they did events, outreach, and invited many teams to come and bless Barcelona. They began programs like King's Kids, and cultural centers to reach the youth and the immigrants of the city. Years passed and everyone wondered... where's the base? "5 years passed until the time was right and the base was launched. In October 2015 the national office of YWAM helped Kari Clewett register YWAM Barcelona as a legal entity, even though there wasn't much to lead. In January 2016 YWAM Barcelona lead "La lanzadera" their leadership training program with the first staff who joined. In September, they lead their first school: Inspiració, a secondary school for Artists and creatives. This was a great start, then January 2017 they lead their first DTS's, yup that's right, we lead two side by side. Calling All Skaters DTS and an "Original Design DTS". The rest is history! From here on, it seems like God constantly challenges them to think out of the box, and to create ways to connect, and innovate, through challenging opportunities and family community. YWAM Barcelona sees themselves as a launching pad for those called to the subcultures and the city, they are the fertile soil to plant a vision and see it grow.
HELLO. HOLA. YO. SALUT. CIAO. WHAT'S UP.
This is our family. We are pleased to meet you.
I began leading King's Kids outreach teams into urban wastelands and overseas when I was 17 years old and haven't looked back since. I'm a licensed psychologist and family therapist, YWAM Barcelona base leader as well as KKI national leader in Spain, and am married to a Catalán! I have a heart to see young people believe they can serve God in the NOW, and help people find a healthy balance between family, mission and FUN!
Vision: For people to come into contact with their true identity and their power through a God who loves them.
My name is Noah Purington, I'm born and raised in Hawaii, grew up surfing and helping my dad's surfboard company Straight Up surfboards. After graduating college with a Psychology degree I spent some time as a missionary in the Caribbean. I did my DTS in Kona and after working sometime at home as a substitute teacher I felt God call me to Barcelona, Spain. Here I'm a base staff and work with local ministries in our city. Kings Kids and Christian Surfers are two ministries that I mostly focus on. In my free time I love to surf, skate, have coffee talks, go to concerts, and break dance! Barcelona is a dream city that has so many sub cultures, I love seeing God be glorified in each one.
Information on how to donate to this staff member coming soon!
To see missionaries and ministries healthy, able to fulfill their purpose, and reach the lost.
Through creating and maintaining organizational systems within ministries in order to ensure their long term success.
By coming alongside missionaries in the field through coaching and member care.

Yooo, my name is Huckleberry (my mom's idea) and I'm from the US. After doing the Calling All Skaters DTS in LA, I felt strongly that God had decided to use me to make sure skateboarders were given opportunities to hear and live out the Gospel. So after 3 years working with Calling All Skaters in LA I moved out to Europe's best city skateboarding, Barcelona, in hopes to further the Gospel of Jesus Christ to Europe.
My name is Isaac Moreno and I am a Catalan, born in Barcelona and raised in a family dedicated to the gospel for generations. Of woodworker as a profession in 2012 I was able to do my Discipleship Training School in Basque Country where I really know God and live my real life. My conquest is to see my nation with a relationship with their creator. I love the arts and specifically music, discovering new places and new people and a good drink abreast the sea. I feel privileged of this city and my people.
Well, hello. So I'm Sarah. I grew up near San Francisco, but have lived in Los Angeles and San Diego in more recent years. After I graduated from Biola University with a degree in Visual Journalism I went to do my DTS in Pichilemu, Chile. Then for two years I staffed at YWAM Los Angeles. I love lifestyle photography, and have been shooting weddings for several years now. While the Spanish culture has only enabled my issue of tardiness, everything else that this city values is so beautiful to me, and I absolutely adore it.
I work in our communications department (website/social media/photo & video/ect.) as well as with ONE, our school for artists and creatives.
To see a movement of artists who fully understand their calling, who collaborate, connect, and work in unity to show the world the face of God.
Providing platforms for both local artists and artists around the globe to connect, collaborate, and understand more deeply God's design and calling over their lives.

Me llamo Matías soy de argentina, después de mi DTS, Dios me llamo a trabajar en las misiones, junto a mi esposa sentimos un amor por Barcelona y su gente, estamos seguros de que este es el tiempo dónde Dios quiere manifestarse aqui y no me lo quiero perder, por cierto amo jugar al fútbol, la buena comida y hablar con la gente por la calle.
Mi deseo es ver en Barcelona a personas completamente entregadas a Cristo, vidas sanadas,restauradas y transformadas por el poder de su amor. Potenciando sus dones, habilidades e impactando a otros, caminando hacia la voluntad de Dios para sus vidas.
Generar a través diferentes áreas como por ejemplo el deporte (estoy en el proceso de descubrir otras tambien haha )un espacio en común donde poder conectar con la gente, afianzar las relaciones y compartir el evangelio., Donde puedan conocer, crecer y fortalecer su relación con Dios.
Buenas, Buenas!! Soy Ana Schlereth, de Argentina. He crecido en una familia cristiana, y desde pequeña hemos recibido misioneros en mi casa, esto despertó mi amor por otras culturas.
Estuve hasta los 18 años trabajando con King's Kids y luego hice mi EDE en Buenos Aires, Argentina, después estudie Profesorado en Danza Contemporánea, me case y junto a mi esposo sentimos un llamado a trabajar en JCUM BARCELONA para ver el Reino de Dios inundando esta la ciudad. Creo con firmeza en el discipulado y la importancia de descubrir nuestra verdadera identidad en Dios.
Me encanta el color amarillo, el agua, tomar mates, admiro la fotografía y disfruto en gran manera el baile.
Que el Reino de Dios pueda revelarse a travez de la vida de los artistas, que sea establecido en las artes para dar VIDA, traer SANIDAD y llevar FRUTOS.
. Discipulando y acompañando a artistas a descubrir su identidad en Dios.
. Creando espacios de entrenamiento y desarrollo para grupos interdisciplinados, buscando en Dios la inspiración.
Hey my name is Dave Terranova. I was born in New Jersey but grew up in Bogota Colombia. In my teens I took an interest to skateboarding, surfing, photography, music and other creative hobbies. When I was 18 I moved to Panama City Panama and all those interests became passions, specifically skateboarding and analog photography. Panama was a life changer and it is there that I truly fell in love with Jesus and began to walk in His will for my life. This adventure with Jesus has led me all over the world and provided many amazing opportunities. After living in Panama for 7 years playing part of a Christian skateboarding community and running a skatepark I felt God leading me to continue this mission elsewhere. Through my connection with Calling All Skaters I have ended up in Barcelona Spain where I believe God has called me to join in what He is doing here though YWAM Barcelona and the Calling All Skaters community. I want to use my heart for skateboarders, passion for creating and love for Jesus to bring transformation to this city. All of this is by Gods Grace and for His glory!

The second line of defense is to use a G5 instead. Seriously.
I apologize ahead of time for going so far off topic, but that's where I'm at lately with my personal radios. With a G5 being less than half the cost of an APX and it being guaranteed to work correctly with no chances of making a mistake, its kind of a no-brainer at this point. Plus P25 and DMR in one package is icing on the cake.
I know i might be in the minority here on this site, but lately its just hard for me to find the time and motivation to go through all of effort when there is a much cheaper, simpler, and foolproof option out there. All I need to do now is find some new homes for some of my Rx only radios.
Plus P25 and DMR in one package is icing on the cake.
DMR is for sure available now? As usual, I see the experts on radioreference have contradicting information on the topic.
I'm also curious to know if it can receive RAS enabled systems or if it behaves identical to a real radio?
DMR is for sure available now?
There have been screenshots and posts on RR that are clearly from Unication people, showing DMR.
However, all has gone quiet for a couple of months now. Unclear where things are wrt DMR at this point - I don't have a need for it so not following closely on that front but there are issues that need to be cleaned up overall, but no updates for a while now.
RAS only screws up the CRC check. The actual data being sent can be decoded properly, which is why/how a scanner can receive a RAS transmission but a "real" radio can't. It'd be nice if the G5 was able to skip past this. Part of the problem is that they would then have to go beyond the DVSI design in order to know it has decoded correctly. The standard says to verify the CRC. If there's no CRC to check, you have to resort to other means like ensuring silence frames are actually silent, or that other known data is decoded properly. That's quite a bit of additional code to write, so I somehow doubt they'd do it. They don't in a scanner because who cares about error correction but in the G5 product I'd hope they would.
The DMR enabled unit is being tested on a system near me. I've heard they've run into a few problems that they're working on.
Hopefully they'll release it soon.
Yes sorry if I mislead anyone with that. I dont have any first hand info about dmr in the unication other than its "in the works." Off the record i know that there are some out in the wild as previously stated. I have not seen or used any of them.
I can tell you as of the Beta Test fw its DMR type 2. Can not do RAS, privacy or trunking. Not saying that they arent working on those capabilities.

Canadians: Healthcare Stocks Are the Only Investments You NEED Today!
Amy Legate-Wolfe
Shopping card with boxes labelled REITs, ETFs, Bonds, Stocks
Many industries are managing to do well even during this pandemic. Indeed, e-commerce stocks, technology stocks, shipping stocks have all managed to do well even while other companies are floundering.
But there's a word of warning that you must consider before investing in these companies. The market is rebounding as a whole, and it's unlikely we will see quite the drop we did back in March. However, it is likely we will see further crashes in the future as the pandemic continues. So, be aware of those stocks that can see you through the next crashes, and well into the future.
That's why healthcare stocks are perfect. Healthcare needed an overhaul, pretty much across the board and around the world. Because of the pandemic, it's gotten that investment. It's likely that this investment will continue for years to come, to prevent another pandemic from happening.
But not all healthcare stocks are alike, so this is why today I would consider NorthWest Healthcare Properties REIT (TSX:NWH.UN) and CloudMD Software & Services Ltd. (TSXV:DOC) as your top choices.
NorthWest is one of the only REITs that actually saw a huge jump in revenue during the pandemic. At the start back in March, revenue rose by about 1% year over year. As of the latest quarter, that revenue jumped to 10.8% year over year! Meanwhile, occupancy also rose to an incredible 99%.
NorthWest is a solid long-term investment not just during the pandemic but after, and that's because of its diverse healthcare portfolio. Not only does it have properties around the world, but every kind of healthcare property, from office space to hospitals. So you get it all with Northwest.
An investment in NorthWest during the crash would have made you returns of 80% as of writing! While also receiving a solid dividend yield of 6.58% at this moment in time.
CloudMD
NorthWest deals with the present, but CloudMD has an eye on the future. The company offers virtual physicians and telehealth for Canadians across the country. Its been acquiring all businesses that fall under this healthcare umbrella — just residents and family doctors and nurses, but physiotherapists, mental health specialists, and more. So you can now receive practically all your needs, while staying comfortable at home, and most importantly: safe!
People are really starting to see the potential of CloudMD in the last year. The company has seen a 163% growth in revenue year over year during the latest quarter, with its gross margin increasing by 42%! Shares are up almost 600% in just a year, and likely to continue growing even more. Yet shares are still at an incredible price of around $2.30 per share as of writing.
Healthcare stocks right now are one of the best options out there. Many are trying to innovate right now, coming up with new ways to keep Canadians healthy and safe. NorthWest is a solid option for both dividends and taking advantage of healthcare property investment.
Meanwhile, CloudMD will bring in huge returns for the next few years, and likely far beyond as virtual healthcare takes hold.

DERBY, England (AP) -- Wayne Rooney now has the Derby job on a permanent basis after England's record goal-scorer retired from playing and received a contract through 2023 to manage the second division team.


Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh has slammed Indian cricket team's decision to not hold a Day-Night pink ball Test against Australian during the upcoming tour Down Under at the end of the year. Speaking to reporters at an event in New Delhi, the Mumbai Indians bowler said that India should be willing to try a new format.
"I don't know why they don't want to play day-night Test matches. It's an interesting format and we should try it. I am all for it. Tell me what's the apprehension of playing with pink ball? If you play, [then only] you can adjust. It may not be as difficult as it seems," the 37-year old was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.
Singh's remarks came on the same day when the Committe of Administrators (CoA) chief Vinod Rai firmly backed the cricketing team's decision. Speaking at the launch of historian Boria Majumdar's book launch in New Delhi, Rai said that there is nothing wrong with India wanting to win the series. "What's wrong in us wanting to win all the matches? Any team that steps out on a pitch wants to win. 30 years back they said India play Test matches only to draw but they don't say that anymore," he said.
But Harbhajan asserted that India would have an equal chance to triumph against Australia in the pink ball conditions and it should have been taken up as a challenge. "We have fast bowlers to trouble them. And what makes us think our batsmen can't take up the challenge of facing Aussie pacers? It's a challenge, and what's the harm in taking up the challenge?," he said.
"Don't you accept the challenge of playing England in overcast conditions in their country? Isn't that a challenge? If we could take up that challenge why not pink-ball cricket," he further added.
India cricket team will travel to Australia for a two-month long tour starting from November 21. The two teams will play 3 T20Is, four Tests and 3 ODIs.

Q: Linux: Is there handy way to exec a program binding it to IP-address of choice? In FreeBSD 4.9 it was very easy to accomplish with just a single command like
jail [-u username]  path hostname ip-number command

if path was / you had running just the same program as usual but all its network communication was restricted to use only given IP-address as the source. Sometimes it's very handy.
Now in Linux there's LXC, which does look very similar to FreeBSD's jail (or Solaris' zones) — can you think of similar way to execute a program?

A: Starting the process inside a network namespace that can only see the desired IP address can accomplish something similar.  For instance, supposed I only wanted localhost available to a particular program.
First, I create the network namespace:
ip netns add limitednet

Namespaces have a loopback interface by default, so next I just need to bring it up:
sudo ip netns exec limitednet ip link set lo up

Now, I can run a program using ip netns exec limitednet and it will only be able to see the loopback interface:
sudo ip netns exec limitednet ip addr show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

If I wanted to limit it to an address other than localhost, I could add other interfaces into the namespace using:
ip link set DEVICE_NAME netns NAMESPACE

I'd have to experiment a bit more to figure out how to add a single IP address into a namespace in the case where an interface might have more than one IP address
The LWN article on namespaces is also helpful.

Editorial Time for an addendum on gender and climate change!...
Time for an addendum on gender and climate change!
Johannesburg: 26 April – Participants to the 2012 Gender Justice and Local Government Summit have urged SADC Heads of State to sign an Addendum to the Protocol on Gender and Development on Climate Change this August when they meet in Maputo, Mozambique.
The Addendum commits governments to acknowledge that climate change affects women most and therefore mainstream gender in mitigation and adaptation efforts. The 280 participants from ten Southern African Development Community (SADC) countries also signed a petition that will be presented to the region's leaders when they meet for the annual Heads of State Summit in Maputo in August.
Declaring that "climate justice equals gender justice" the participants said that the SADC Protocol on Gender and Development, which has 28 targets to be achieved by 2015, is "not comprehensive enough on matters of sustainable development. This issue has become increasingly pressing since the adoption of the Protocol in 2008. The Protocol is a living document that should respond to the needs and concerns of citizens at any given time."
Taking place against the backdrop of Earth Day and Green Office week, the summit demonstrated its commitment to "going green, going clean" through a panel debate, documents put on CD instead of being printed, and a memory box of "the world we would like to see by 2015." Participants conducted a paperless online evaluation and cyber dialogue.
Convened by Gender Links under the theme "365 Days of Local Action to End Violence and Empower Women" the Summit condemned in the strongest terms the gang rape of a young woman with a mental disability in Soweto on the eve of the summit. The gruesome incident, captured on cell phone video went viral around the world.
In a session on "Making IT work for gender justice" summit participants, who came from 44 municipalities around Southern Africa "took back the tech" by getting E Mail addresses, getting on face book and twitter, and learning how to create and disseminate their own content. "The Internet is used in unspeakable ways to violate the rights of women," participants noted." But it is a free space that we need to claim equally vigorously to promote women's rights.
During the IT session GL launched a journal on Gender, Popular Culture and Media Freedom with numerous examples from around the region of how new media and popular culture are being used in progressive ways.
The summit ended yesterday with an awards ceremony that will recognise ten winners, ten runner-ups and commend two individuals whose work has been voted by a panel of judges and the audience out of 110 best practices, from 44 municipalities across Southern Africa.
At the opening ceremony on 23 April, the Minister of Women, Children and People with Disabilities, Honourable Lulu Xingwana commended the work being done through the Centres of Excellence for Gender Mainstreaming in Local Government.
She further pointed out that this is a significant task that SADC citizens have undertaken because the points of actual service delivery are at the very local and community level. It is therefore critical that issues of women's empowerment and gender equality are mainstreamed at this level.
The Minister of Local Government, Urban and Rural Development in Zimbabwe, Dr Ignatius Chombo added, "he is always gratified to learn of practitioners who have found a better way of doing the things that we do. Local Government is a dynamic field and if we are not innovating, then we are not serving."
Chombo said that the SADC Protocol on Gender and Development is a useful instrument aimed at levelling the playing filed for women and men in development. He cited the examples of the Vice President and Deputy Prime Minister of Zimbabwe who have been to the maternity ward and who still spend time in the kitchen without in any way impinging on their ability to handle their senior position in national and international matters.
The Gender Based Violence (GBV) Indicators Research Botswana launched at the summit shows that 67% of women in Botswana have experienced GBV. A lower proportion of men, 44%, compared to the proportion of women reporting GBV said they perpetrated GBV in Botswana. The most predominant form of GBV experienced by women and perpetrated by men in the three countries occurs within intimate partnerships. Sixty-six percent of women in Botswana reported experiencing intimate partner violence in their lifetime.
The research has called on political leaders and key decision-makers to address GBV holistically in their public discourse; allocate financial resources for the implementation of National Action Plans; support capacity-building for GBV service providers; and ensure the establishment of centralised country GBV databases to allow for reporting on instruments such as the CEDAW and the SADC Protocol on Gender and Development.

The Rockies' summer sixteen wasn't nearly as extravagant as Drake's, but it was a significant improvement over a last place finish in 2015. The Rockies finished the season with 75 wins, the most since recording 83 wins in 2010.
The starting pitching had a tremendous impact on that shift, highlighted by Jon Gray setting a single-game record 16 strikeouts, and is a source of optimism for the first time in a long time.
Possibly a bigger headline, though, was the youth movement that made their debut in 2016. From Trevor Story, who was in the running for Rookie of the Year before succumbing to a season-ending injury, to Jeff Hoffman, who was the main piece in the Troy Tulowitzki trade, the Rockies' young talent impressed.
While 2016 had moments where it seemed like the team could contend for a Wild Card spot, more often than not, it was something of a learning experience to get prepared for next season.
With that, we'll be going through some of that young talent this week, looking at how they grew up during their first season in the big leagues. Today, we start with pitcher Jeff Hoffman.
Jeff Hoffman has a large tattoo spanning across the upper half of his back. In large black script letters lies the word "Fearless." Before Hoffman can explain why he got the ink, Tyler Chatwood, Nick Hundley and Tom Murphy interrupt and lay into him for having it in the first place. While all the battery mates enjoy giving each other a hard time, Hoffman said it represents a mentality he has developed while on the mound.
Even with Hoffman's ferociousness, results weren't translating after he was called up in August. The execution wasn't there, and he was sent to the bullpen. The move limited his innings but Hoffman said the bullpen helped him get right. There was no time to pace himself. Only attack.
After coming out of the bullpen, Hoffman was very insistent on starting. When Tyler Anderson was shut down for the season with general arm soreness, a spot in the rotation opened up, and the righty took advantage. He only gave up one run against the Brewers in his final start of the season. Limited to only five innings, Hoffman's experience in the bullpen helped him finish strong.
Hoffman's career is shaping up very similar to the guy who sits to his right in the locker room. Just one year apart, Jon Gray has been an integral part of the growth of Hoffman in the last couple months of the season.
Gray and Hoffman both came up the ranks as elite prospects, and it's easy to see why. While both struggled during their first stint in the majors, the raw talent was evident. They're special players.
When rookies are gaining confidence from each other, it shows how the mentality and the makeup of these Rockies are changing. This core youth movement is growing together.
This is a part of a week-long series. Make sure to check back tomorrow, to hear how Chad Bettis overcame being sent down to the minors three times in 2014 to becoming one of the Rockies' best starters.

Q: Package naming structure What does this package naming structure accomplish in a Scala file?
package myco.group.component
package foo
package bar

A: It's the same as:
package myco.group.component.foo.bar

import mco.group.component._
import mco.group.component.foo._
import mco.group.component.foo.bar._

Also the same as:
package myco.group.component {

For a homeowner wanting to complete a remodel or rehabilitation to their Eichler or Cliff May house, what are some of the challenges they will face?
Jeff Jeannette: The biggest challenge I have experienced remolding these homes centers around their post and beam connections as well as their wide roof spans. Today's building codes don't allow the beautiful, lightweight connections done during the Mid Century Era. Often, we'll introduce steel members and creatively designed structural connections to marry today's codes with the aesthetics of the original homes.
How about challenges for an older Craftsman home?
Jeff Jeannette:Our early Craftsman homes are equally challenging in the structural realm. The old wood wall studs used back in the day are physically different sizes than today's standard wood making it difficult to integrate today's materials. We work very closely with our engineers and plan creative solutions to keep the integrity of old homes. Detailing is key; copying existing details of the home into new spaces from moldings to window and door trims help make that addition look as if it were original to the home.
We occasionally see a trashed or mistreated Cliff May in Long Beach that would need serious gutting and rehabilitation (i.e. drywall removed, new plumbing, possibly new electrical, framing work to rotted rafter tails, etc). Given that the final costs will depend on the quality of finishes that the homeowner chooses, is there an average square foot price that can guide a homeowner with budget planning in terms of costs to factor in?
Jeff Jeannette:Preliminary Cost Estimates to rehab mistreated homes is nearly impossible to realize without knowing the scope of work required and the spaces involved. New construction is fairly easy to estimate however fixing old homes depends on the size of the home, the current electrical, plumbing and mechanical systems and the overall goals of the project. It's best to invite an architect out to discuss the project scope up front. Most licensed professionals will understand the systems involved and be able to make recommendations for you or bring in a contractor who as experience with the style of home for more tighter budgeting purposes.
How will the average 1980-2000 era tract home in the U.S. be judged in the future?
Jeff Jeannette: I'm still looking for that crystal ball to tell the future! My feeling is they won't stand the test of time and be that "iconic architectural masterpiece." Often, these mass produced homes were built quickly and some developers cut corners to save costs. Their condition is based on how well the homeowner has cared for them. I've been in and out of many of those homes and typically our scope of work includes replacing insulation, plumbing, upgrading heating and cooling systems and electrical systems. The efficiencies of those homes is fairly low so bringing in new materials can make a sizeable difference in utility costs. Generally, the style of those homes were not very exciting as they were designed with construction costs rather than aesthetics in mind.
What's the most exciting part of your job and is there ever a bad day in Design/Architecture?
Jeff Jeannette: Sure, we all have bad days on the job but for us they are generally few and far between. I love meeting with the people who will have the opportunity to enjoy the spaces we create. Seeing the smile on our client's faces when they move into their new or newly remodeled home is a wonderful experience. Merging today's technologies with yesterday's architecture is also an exciting part of my career. Introducing Sustainable Design Concepts into an old home and transforming an inefficient home into a "Green Home" is a lot of fun. Designing homes is much like putting together a giant 3 dimensional puzzle; blending the design of spaces, aesthetics, and the physical needs of the family. There's a challenge about it that I really enjoy.
Many thanks to Jeff Jeannette!


Where do the fish come from and are they endangered?
Three of the species come from waters around Iceland – the perch comes from the Nile River. Fish used to produce Fiskur Leather are not endangered. We would be unable to legally import and sell any endangered species.
Fish leather offers a number of benefits. It is strong, durable, thin and pliable. These characteristics make it suitable for use by home crafters as well as industry designers. The skins dye beautifully as well as take numerous finishes from nubuk to waxed to gold and silver overlays.
Does fish leather stink of fish?
Any smell associated with the fish leather is not "fishy" but rather like the smell of any other leather. Cats have been offered the choice of tanned fish leather or their regular food. The cats choose their food. There is no fishy smell to the pieces.
How long does it take to get my fish leather order?
If we have the leather on hand, we will ship in 2-3 days. If we must custom order, it may take 4-6 weeks.
Yes. Custom orders can be done. There may be a minimum order depending on the color and finish. Allow 4-6 weeks. Custom orders can be done to match or coordinate with a textile sample you have.
Do I need special equipment to work with fish leather?
Working with fish leather is do-able for the home crafter. You can use a home machine with a leather needle (available from a local sewing store). It is also recommended that you use a quilter's walking foot or a Teflon foot. You can also hand feed the leather with the feed dogs down. To avoid marks on the leather, especially those with metallic overlays, cover both the top and bottom layers with parchment paper and sew. Tear away the paper when you are done.
Hand sewing and beading is also possible. It works best with a leather needle. Joe recommends using Rtiza Tiger Thread for hand-sewing any project. It is braided and waxed and lays flat on the leather.
Sewing thread should be nylon or a poly blend. Cotton is not recommended.
Our leathers are the by-product of the fishing industry and therefore eco-friendly. Also, because there is no fur or hair to remove, the process is easier on the environment.
Will you give me a discounted rate if I place a large order?
Our markup is very low to make the products affordable to the public.


From a corpse flower to 3,800 year-old corpses? Starting August 27, the Houston Museum of Natural Science will exhibit a collection of mummies found along the Silk Road in western China. In the above photo is a mummy named "The Beauty of Xiaohe," an infant estimated to have been 8-10 months old at the time of her death. It's a stunning image--note the full cheeks, the eyebrows and eyelashes. Looks like a mysterious, compelling exhibit. But we're starting to think the HMNS is turning into the Museum of 1,000 Corpses.
