For example, in the U.K., a small majority of respondents (28%) felt the government had handled the crisis "reasonably well". Just 15% of respondents felt it had been handled "extremely well", mirrored closely by the number who felt it had been dealt with "very badly" (17%).

Minister must intervene so that Gaza - bound ship can begin humanitarian aid voyage – Ó Snodaigh
13 May, 2010 - by Aengus Ó Snodaigh TD
Aengus Ó Snodaigh TD and Sinn Féin Spokesperson for Foreign Affairs is calling on the Minister for Transport to intercede immediately with a situation where the Port Authority and Customs and Excise in Dundalk port are preventing a ship laden with humanitarian aid destined for Gaza from leaving because it has a tricolour painted on its side.
"This is a ridiculous situation where the hampering of a relief effort is being caused; the reason being given that the Irish flag on the MV Rachel Corrie must be painted over even though this is an Irish vessel. I am calling on the Minister to immediately intervene and release the ship so that no more precious time is wasted." ENDS


Abstract. The present work is suggested as a contribution to the debate on Reverse Modeling (RM) topic in the Cultural Heritage field. It wants to test the methodology, the limits and the bottlenecks of the RM pipeline in the architectural field, with particular attention to the geometric shapes reading and interpretation. The mathematical reconstruction of architectural models represents an overlaid result of anthropic and natural transformations framed inside a complex process of shape simplification and surface generation. This pipeline must be supported by a careful Heritage reading by means of architecture rules, both preserving the actual shape and the original intent of the building designer. The integration of these last two aspects make the process of RM applied to CH extremely complex. It involves a cognitive activity aimed at choosing on the one hand the best 3D survey technique to obtain reliable 3D data, on the other hand reaching a suitable architectural knowledge for achieving a plausible modeling result. The research presented describes a RM process applied to an ecclesiastical architecture, highlighting some key passages: an integrated survey approach to extract geometrical information, data analysis and generation of a mathematical 3D model, reliable from both a formal and cultural point of view.

Free Credit Report, Bankruptcy often is the last ultimate solution to many debtors who had unbearable debts. With filing a bankruptcy, they will get rid of their debts instantly or relief they from the harassing call of their creditors.
Be toe they apply to any credit reports, be sure to comp were the terms, rates or fees charged by each bank or lender. Just because they had bad credit does not mean they had to accept high fees or costs! They could still shop around to a good deal.
Free Credit Report, Both acts help protect they by insuring the fairness of the lending industry while allowing they to take control of their credit history or ensure its accuracy. Maintaining good credit begins by learning all they could about how credit reporting works. By underscoring these laws, they were taking a positive step in creating good credit to a stable financial future.
By contrast a credit counselor is going to give they advice about fixing their credit report their self. One very important advantage of that is that by attempting credit repair their self they'll be learning many things about financial responsibility or financials in general.
Free Credit Report - Consider these bankruptcy alternatives before you make a life-changing decision to file bankruptcy. Make sure you know all of your options and one of these bankruptcy alternatives might become a better choice for you.
Credit cards can include additional benefits like insurance cover on purchases, cash-back, AirMiles, Nectar or Reward points, and holiday discounts.
Free Credit Report, Debt consolidation is as close as the length of your finger tips from the keyboard of your computer. Some people are not aware that you can consolidate your debts through the Internet. It is possible to get counseling services from companies in other states. However, you should be cautious because some of these so-called companies do not offer the competitive rates you should be looking at. You need to really research each firm you consider.

A tip of the cap to the boys at Whiskey Riff for turning me on to the music of Cody Jinks. They mentioned him in one of their podcasts that I heard and since then I've been diving into Cody's music.
Last year Cody put out some new music. It's right in that traditional country vein. Or more in that Texas Country world of today, which is kind of what country music used to be.
I love Texas Country. It's really it's own thing in the music world. I know they have all kinds of music going on down there, but their country sound is right on point.
Here is one of the songs off of Cody's latest album. This one seems to be getting the most attention although the entire album is full of good songs.
I think what's going on with this song is that we have a guy that can't help, but to keep moving. He has tried the settling down thing. He's tried doing all the right things or the common things in the past. But after all those years he's realized that he is going to live life a certain way.
There's no time to think about what he screwed up on. Losing women that he loved. Losing time with people he cared about. But he's accepted it. I would say that this is kind of sad song. It's almost a reluctance to move on with the life you know is right for you.
I've been listening to him for a few years now, and can't get enough of his music. Traveled out of town to see him and man was he great! I can't wait until he comes back around again this year. Must see concert!

NYPD investigates voice coach over allegations of sexual abuse

Court papers reveal how much Jeffrey Epstein is actually worth
The NYPD is investigating a veteran voice coach over multiple allegations of sexual abuse at his Manhattan studio, law enforcement sources told The Post on Friday.
Peter Rofé, 50, of Irvington, was at the center of a report by CNN on Thursday in which at least 16 women accused him of the misconduct from the early 2000s to last September.
Rofé is accused of sexually abusing several women at his East Village studio late last year, according to sources. Rofé now runs a studio in Irvington called PDR Voice Over Coaching.
All of the women CNN spoke to said the alleged sexual misconduct happened at the Manhattan studio above the Strand Book Store or in an apartment he keeps in the city.
One of the accusers, Samantha Shulman, told CNN she was 27 when she started seeing Rofé in 2004.
She told the news outlet that she had been working with Rofé for more than six months when he locked the door of his Manhattan studio during a session and persuaded her to take off her shirt.
According to CNN, Shulman told Rofé that her voice turned him on and she said he then "took his penis out."
"He asked if I wanted to touch it, and then he reached down and he touched my breast," Shulman told CNN. "I remember putting my shirt back on, and I didn't say anything. I was in shock."
Rofé or his lawyer Andrew Miltenberg could not immediately be reached for comment Friday.
However, in a statement to CNN, Miltenberg said: "For many years, Mr. Rofé has been a wonderful teacher and mentor to those aspiring to a career in voice-overs. He is proud of his clients and their achievements, and has always acted professionally and respectfully."

In its meeting of 20 October, the Commission of Fine Arts reviewed two alternative concept designs for the Memorial to the Victims of the Ukrainian Famine (Holodomor) of 1932-1933. The Commission agreed that the project team's preferred alternative, Field of Wheat, is the superior design and approved this concept with the following recommendations.
In order to make a more powerful design, the Commission members recommended carefully considering the treatment of the wall to which the wheat field bas-relief will be attached. They suggested either eliminating the framing effect of the wall around the bronze bas-relief as seen from the plaza, or treating the wall as a more deliberate architectural frame. They also suggested that the design team give more attention to the rear of the wall, noting that it contributes to the experience along F Street. In emphasizing the importance of considering this site within its larger urban context, the Commission members recommended that the proposed trees along the street curb conform to the regularity of the city's existing pattern of street trees. Finally, the Commission praised the environmental sustainability of the proposal, including the use of existing ambient lighting and on-site stormwater management.
The Commission commended the project team for the strength of the preferred alternative and looks forward to review of the next submission. As always, the staff is available to assist you.

NCC Bans WiMAX Business Spin-Off
Following on from the unanimous rejection of Chunghwa Telecom's proposal to acquire shares in a new worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) operator by the National Communications Commission (NCC) (for further details please see "NCC Rejects Chunghwa Telecom's Acquisition of New WiMAX Operator"), on July 3 2008 the NCC rejected an application by First International Telecom (FITEL), one of the six WiMAX licence holders and the only personal handy-phone system operator in Taiwan, to spin off its WiMAX business from its personal handy-phone system operation to its wholly owned subsidiary. The proposed spin-off was intended to inject investment from Intel, the WiMAX technology promoter.
FITEL is the only personal handy-phone system service operator operating in the 1900 megahertz band in Taiwan. It has been facing fierce competition from Global System for Mobile (GSM) operators and therefore obtained a WiMAX licence by submitting the highest bid (12.89% of its gross revenue as royalties). However, FITEL has failed to obtain funding from foreign investors and thus improve its financial status, as personal handy-phone systems are not seen as a growing business. Potential investors are being wooed with new WiMAX business. As the transfer of a WiMAX operation licence is prohibited under the Telecommunications Act, FITEL followed some previous experience of mergers and acquisitions among GSM operators by planning to spin off its WiMAX business to a new wholly-owned subsidiary, in which it would later sell up to 60% of the shares to foreign investors. However, the NCC did not accept this approach. In its decision it made it clear that the following cannot be leased, loaned, transferred or assigned to any third party unless specifically provided for by the law:
• establishment approval;
• installation permits;
• radio station licences;
• charters; and
• assigned radio frequencies (according to Article 48 of the Regulations on Wireless Broadband Access Services).
In a legal sense and according to the NCC, a wholly owned subsidiary constitutes a third party to its parent company.
In addition, the due process of law was a crucial consideration in the NCC's decision. Typically, WiMAX licences have been granted through a combined process of a beauty contest and open bidding. The NCC regards the commitments made by the winning bidders as irrevocable and non-transferable. At present, a change in licence holder could involve a replay of the whole review and bidding process to ensure fairness for all possible bidders. A wholly owned subsidiary taking licensed business from its parent company constitutes a change of the licence status.
According to an announcement by FITEL Chief Executive Officer CY Wu, the company does not intend to give up on the spin-off plan even though the NCC has made clear that it has no plans to change existing regulations in order to encourage foreign investment in the WiMAX business, which needs a new capital injection by early 2009.

Frei Ulrico Goevert O.Carm. (Darfeld, Alemanha, 13 de julho de 1902 — Paranavaí, 26 de outubro de 1983) foi um sacerdote católico alemão,  que trabalhou 47 anos no Brasil.

Seu nome de batismo era Hubert. Inicialmente pretendia ser engenheiro de mineração, mas seguindo o chamado de Deus, optou por entrar no seminário dos Carmelitas em Bamberg. Ali fez seus estudos de Filosofia e Teologia. Foi ordenado no dia 24 de junho de 1928.
Já como seminarista sentia o desejo de ser missionário. Por isso pensou em ir para a Indonésia, um país asiático onde o catolicismo não é a religião majoritária. Porém, o Superior Geral dos Carmelitas o designou para ser mestre de noviços em Pernambuco. Tão logo recebeu a carta-obediência, partiu para o Brasil. Chegou em Recife no dia 1º de março de 1936. Trabalhou no Nordeste brasileiro principalmente como mestre de noviços, capelão de hospitais e Ordens de Terceiras do Carmo. Em 1951 transferiu-se  para Paranavaí, assumindo a Paróquia São Sebastião, que na época era maior do que a atual diocese. Em 1965 foi transferido para Graciosa como pároco.

Current progress is 15,900 words and a two-year-old lab/cattle dog mix.
Wait, progress? Who said that? I'd call her more of a hindrance to writing. Because she's so darn sweet, and desperately needy in the way shelter dogs are when they aren't quite sure you won't dump them somewhere like their last person did.
But yeah, the book. I think I'm going to love this book, and hopefully so are you.
There are no dogs in it (yet?), but there are some dog-sized…things.
I think I have a title, but it seems too soon for a title so I'm going to keep it to myself for now.
I'm about a thousand words into a new book I hope to release in late 2018 or early 2019. This a completely new series with new characters in a different world than The Alignment. It's still our world, but with fantasy elements that draw from different myths.
It's still fantasy though, so anything goes. I might take that research and turn it upside down. But here's what you can expect: A broody, haunted heroine who breaks all kinds of rules. A guy-next-door hero who might just be too wholesome for her. Strange corpses under beds. Unquiet spirits. A building underground war. Cool cars. And a love story that complicates everything.

Lessons from the Storm
By Kim Cross and Erin Shaw Street
If there is a silver lining, it is that tragedy shows us our mettle. In the words of victims and volunteers, here are a few lessons we have learned.
Anyone Can Help
Photo: David Hanson
VILONIA, AR—Lorenda Dunham had no training in disaster relief when she showed up at the fire station with her husband and asked the fire chief how she could help. He pointed to the senior center, the storm relief HQ, and said, "Take care of that." Lorenda stepped up as the de facto leader of hundreds of volunteers, working from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. for two weeks straight.
"It hasn't been the disaster that's overwhelmed me. It's been the compassion. This is going to have a lifelong effect on some of these kids, like my nephew. He now knows that there's a world outside of himself. He's always got something he can give and a way to help."

Some Things Cannot Be Broken

SMITHVILLE, MS—"Our beautiful church building is no longer here, but our beautiful church has never been more lovely," Pastor Wes White told his congregation before the ruins of Smithville Baptist Church, which collapsed in an EF-5 tornado. Pastor Wes and 11 others survived inside, along with this single unshattered window. "This was like God's little gift, telling us it's gonna be all right."
"It's not hard to discern pain. It's not hard to perceive loss," Wes said. "But if we can find hope in the midst of a tragedy, then we've done something challenging."

In Every Tragedy Lies a Teachable Moment

HOLT, AL—Emily Glisson and her children joined the volunteer forces sorting and distributing emergency supplies, food, and clothes to tornado victims in a community stripped bare of its homes. She and her husband recently moved to Tuscaloosa with their family after six years as missionaries in East Africa.
"We have to believe that good comes of tragedy. I've witnessed the community pulling together, crossing the racial barriers," said Emily, who homeschools her six children but took the day off so they could volunteer. "We think this is just as much learning as getting out the algebra books."
Donate to United Way of West Alabama, based in Tuscaloosa.
Reach Out To a Stranger, and You May Touch a Friend
SMITHVILLE, MS—Michael Harrison and his son, Corey, drove from Wills Point, Texas, to Smithville in a truck loaded with chainsaws and supplies, to ask a stranger, "How can we help you?" When they arrived, they met a relative they never knew about, a resident of Smithville.
Their East Texas town had organized a food drive. "Baptists, Methodists, Penticostals, Charismatics…everyone came together," said Michael. "Everybody gave. This truck was donated. This trailer is not mine."

No Matter How Many, We'll Feed Them Somehow
VILONIA, AR—Retired schoolteacher Sandy Towles became a leader in the team of volunteers who cooked at the Vilonia Senior Citizens Center, feeding up to 1,200 volunteers three square meals a day. They came up with so many creative uses for ground beef that the group plans to publish a cookbook of relief-food recipes for other towns that face disasters in the future.
Everyone from the bank to the ice-cream company donated food, and the stream of donations seemed to have no end.
"I had 25 cases of hamburger meat in the fridge trailer and I went in there the other day and there were still 25 cases, even though we've been going through it every day for two weeks," Sandy said. "People just keep bringing us more to serve. It was like the proverbial loaves and fishes."

CLEVELAND, TN—DJ and radio station owner Steve Hartline knew he could use his airways to help his hometown handle the crisis of a direct hit. He opened the phone lines to broadcast the needs of people who needed help, and people who had help to give. There were calls from people trapped in homes, and responses from people with chainsaws to help dig them out.
"I've heard it from everyone in this community—they'd lost their power but held tight to their battery-power radio," Steve says. Later, his call for donations to help schools damaged by the storms filled two school buses. "I believe the Lord puts certain people in certain places for a reason, and I think He put me at this radio station for a reason," Steve says.
Donate to United Way of Greater Chattanooga, which serves Cleveland and other eastern Tennessee communities affected by the storms.
CLEVELAND, TN—William and Angela Lamb's family room, where they loved to gather and play board games, was lost to the storm, and with it went one of their most cherished possessions: the Scrabble set that belonged to William's late father.
Days after, 146 friends and volunteers helped the Lambs clear debris from their yard. Many brought with them board games to help rebuild the Lambs' collection. "Faith, family, and friendship have helped us through this journey," says William.
About 25 miles southwest of Cleveland, the community of Ringgold, GA, is still recovering from the devastating F-4 tornado that affected 539 homes in the area. Donate to Help Ringgold.
Weathermen Save Lives
SMITHVILLE, MS—Seventeen-year-old Johnny Parker, an aspiring meteorologist who writes a weather blog on weatherunderground.com, was texting weather alerts to friends when his house collapsed on him and his father and 16-year-old sister. The last text he sent before his phone was sucked out of his hands was "Get to a safe place."
"When I was about 4 or 5, a big storm came through and it blew down our apple tree. That's when I thought, 'We could have been killed.' And I felt like I needed to start keeping up with the weather."
Donate to Mississippi Disaster Recovery, set up by Gov. Haley Barbour, to help areas affected by the storms and flooding.
Faith Stands When Everything Else is Knocked Down
HOLT, AL—The tornado that leveled the community of Holt somehow missed one building: Soma Church.
"When we built this church, we put Bibles into the four corners of the building," said Becky Lewellyn, whose home in Moundville was spared but who wept when speaking of others less lucky. "Underneath all that Sheetrock, there's Scripture written in English and Spanish. We wanted it to be there, because that's what we're built on."
Donate to Alabama's Governor's Emergency Relief Fund, which supports faith- and community-based relief organizations in the state.
Sometimes The Best Thing to Do is Just Listen
SHOTTSVILLE, AL—The local fire station became a relief kitchen serving three home-cooked meals a day, from Boston butts to deep-fried turkey, ham, beans, and cornbread. Community members brought cakes and pies. But fire chief Jeff Williams says the best thing they provided was a willing ear.
"We were here to listen to people. That's what they needed—just to talk. They'd lost everything. We didn't make judgments or say, 'We know how you feel,' because we didn't. But we'd sit there and listen to them over a cup of coffee, and in the morning we'd see what they needed and try to get it."
Donate to Give Tuscaloosa, a nonprofit that helps communities in West Alabama affected by the storms.
We Wrote the Recipe for the Ultimate Comfort Food
SMITHVILLE, MS—They rolled into town after devastated town, the volunteers with coolers. They were just a few families from a small-town church, and when the parking lots filled with trucks and tents, they found a flat spot on the side of the road and flagged down customers with a sign that read "Free Food!"
They did it, they said, because it makes people feel like things are back to normal. And also, maybe, because when you feel powerless to help a situation, you can always cook. Rita Trull served her famous chocolate cake with buttercream frosting, alongside treats made by friends in her small town of Kennedy, Alabama.
"I said, 'I need some cakes for these people!'" Rita said, as her husband, Billy, held a sign made by their daughter, Lauren. "I had 21 cakes come to my house."
The Things That Tear Our World Apart Also Bring Us Together
PHIL CAMPBELL, AL—Carrie Morgan's senior quilt—a patchwork of photos that captured memories from birth through high school—took flight from Phil Campbell in the winds that sucked up her mother's house. The quilt flew 75 miles, across two counties, and landed in a stranger's yard in Athens, Alabama.
Leah Meyer, the stranger who discovered it, found Carrie through a Facebook lost-and-found and returned the quilt to the place where it took flight.
"This was my life, my journey through everything," said Carrie upon seeing the quilt again. "I see my baby pictures and realize how much my kids look like me."

When One Door Closes, Another Opens
VILONIA, AR—Corie Gunter, 13 (front, center) cried when she saw the text from eighth-grade friend Kevin Perez (red shorts). He sent a photo of the empty lot where his family's home had stood. She asked her parents if Kevin and his family could live in their spare two-bedroom apartment, part of a boarding care facility for war veterans, until they found their next home.
Corie remembers the never-ending thank-yous on the night the Perez family moved in, and the way their seven-seater minivan seemed much too empty—all they had was a few frozen pizzas and muddy clothes. But what she remembers most is the good times they shared—after-school games of soccer and football in the yard, movie nights on Friday.
"I am going to be sad to see them go," Corie said. "I feel like I am the one that has gained from all of this."
Prayer Helps
BIRMINGHAM, AL—Volunteer Ronnie Phillips, who lives in Baton Rouge, helped distribute emergency relief supplies and free meals on behalf of the Salvation Army and the Red Cross. He had just come from Smithville, Mississippi, where he saw an image that still haunts him.
"There were stairs leading up to a house, but there was no house," he said. "This is not my first rodeo. I've been through Katrina. But this is the first time I've seen something this devastating. I just pray. I pray continuously. I get up in the morning and pray on the way to the disaster."

Sometimes the Victims Are Also the Heroes
SMITHVILLE, MS—The road was blocked as Patti Parker drove home in a panic, watching the funnel cloud approach the house where her husband and two teenagers huddled. She got out of her car and ran in stockinged feet down the street to find the house destroyed but her family alive. The next day, she returned to work as executive director of the United Way, mobilizing an army of volunteers.
"I just had a job to do. I found out the kids were okay, and I went into United Way mode. But I penciled in today as my semi-breakdown, get-it-together-girl day," she said, nine days after, as the reality of being homeless sank in.
"Friends and family and even people I do not know have helped us. In Wal-Mart, someone paid for all our purchases. We'll see someone in a restaurant and they'll pay our tab before we even have a chance."
Miracles Sometimes Come Disguised as Nightmares
HOLT, AL—Pastor Shaun Faulkner lost his home to the mile-wide tornado that ripped through this community in greater Tuscaloosa. His church was the only building that stood, like that first red Monopoly house set down on an empty board.
"There have been times throughout the history of mankind where tragedy has brought about a miracle of some sort, and a tangible presence of God in the presence of his people," he said, and here in his church, even as they mourned the lost lives and homes and beauty around them, he saw that presence drawing his people together like never before. "I have never felt so much love and joy in the spirit, as I do now. I feel spiritually complete. I feel spiritually whole."

We Nurture Each Other Through Food
VILONIA, AR—Nora Ortega Walle and Alfonso Walle (shown here with 1-year-old Becky) had barely opened El Rancho Mexican Restaurant when the storm tore through town. They re-opened their doors as soon as power was restored, and all day they fed everyone and charged no one.
"We went to Sam's and bought a bunch of food and we made tortas [Mexican-style sandwiches], rice, beans, and tacos to bring to people," Nora said. "This food is what we can offer. It's the way to say 'This is what we can do to help the people of our town who we all love.'"
Our Doors Are Always Open
VILONIA, AR—Angelo and Norina Valdes came to volunteer from St. Charles, Illinois, where they run Helps Ministry, a halfway house for homeless people with drug problems. They stayed 10 days to help with immediate storm cleanup.
"The Southern hospitality is amazing," Angelo said. "The first thing people say when we come to help them out or meet people in town is 'You got a place to stay?'"
Southern Hospitality Knows No Bounds

CLEVELAND, TN—Vernon and Maggie Lee lost their dream home to a tornado that took several lives. The night after, pastor Chris Moody and his wife, Teri (pictured), opened their home to the Lees and their two boys. Only later did the Lees find out that Teri had been in the hospital with a concussion on the night of the storm. "It didn't matter if I was hurt," Teri said. "I just wanted to do anything I could to help."
"I just wanted a hot meal, and they gave it to us," says Vernon, describing the potato and cheese casserole the families shared, dropped off by a church member. "To have a hot meal meant so much. It was one of the best things I'd ever tasted."
No One Is a Stranger
VILONIA, AR—Inez Coker, 95, huddled in the storm shelter outside her home of 48 years with her son Gerrald, 77, and 15 friends and family members. When they emerged from the shelter, some of the men pulled a truck driver out of his overturned cab, which had been toppled into a ditch. Inez invited him to spend the night in the storm cellar.
"In the morning I offered him breakfast—eggs and toast and bacon. But he said he'd lost his teeth when the tornado picked up his truck. So I made him coffee and gave him a banana."
Roots Matter as Much as Roofs
VILONIA, AR—Avid gardener Linda Kordsmeier lost part of her roof and most of her spring garden in the storm. Master Gardeners, an international group, came from around the area to help her replant.
"For a day we trimmed and pitched and tied things up and pruned and moved flowers into shade since we lost six black oak trees," Linda said. "I told the people they'd find us with no problem—we're the only ones with a trailer in a tree."

William Stephen Poyntz (20 January 1770 – 8 April 1840) was an English Whig and Liberal politician who sat in the House of Commons variously between 1800 and 1837.
Poyntz was the son of William Poyntz (d.1809) by his wife Isabella (d.1805), daughter and co-heir of Kelland Courtenay. His brothers-in-law and first cousins were Edmund Boyle, 8th Earl of Cork, and Vice-Admiral Sir Courtenay Boyle.
He was educated at Christ Church, Oxford.
In June 1800, Poyntz was elected at a by-election as a Member of Parliament (MP) for St Albans and held the seat until the 1807 general election. He was next elected as MP for Callington at a by-election in April 1810, and held the seat until the 1818 general election. In February 1823 he was elected at a by-election as MP for Chichester, and held the seat until the 1830 general election. In March 1831 Poyntz was elected at a by-election as MP for Ashburton, where he was re-elected in May 1831 and held the seat until the 1835 general election, when he was elected MP for Midhurst. He was re-elected in 1837, and held the seat until his resignation later in 1837 by taking the Chiltern Hundreds.
Isabella Poyntz, who married Brownlow Cecil, 2nd Marquess of Exeter.
Poyntz died at the age of 70.

Seamus Heaney's "After a Killing" is a poem about the Irish Troubles. Heaney uses symbols and imagery to emphasize not only the struggles of the people, but the inevitability of trouble returning to Ireland. The poem begins with the stark image of two men with rifles, and the suggestion that this image is not new—instead, they were "as if our memory had hatched them, / As if the unquiet founders walked again." This allusion brings to mind the idea of a collective racial memory ("our memory") and summons the image of the founders of Ireland, not at rest ("unquiet") but walking again among the hills. In contrast with the men with rifles, this is incongruous and unsettling.
The landscapes of Ireland are depicted through the use of images little elaborated upon and the use of enumeratio: "rain and scoured light and wind-dried stones / Basalt, blood, water, headstones, leeches." Each of these images summons a host of associations in itself: the first line speaks to the Irish weather, while "blood, water" evokes the Biblical "Blood is thicker than water," and "headstones, leeches" speaks to a history of death and illness.
The "stone house" in the poet's memory once caused the heart to "lift," but the contrast to the girl in the modern day is again unsettling—the food she carries seems plentiful, but "the mould fresh upon them" reminds the reader of the continuing rot and disorder in the state of Ireland, never eradicated.

BuddyPress is social networking in a box, the loveable plugin that has people around the world getting social. But using BuddyPress isn't all about waking up one morning and being struck by the amazing idea of creating the next Facebook. BuddyPress is a tool for creating communities. In fact, if you look at successful implementations of BuddyPress, you'll see they aren't Facebook clones, but rather niche groups that have put BuddyPress to work in growing their community.
BuddyPress is social networking in a box, the loveable plugin that has people around the world getting social. But using BuddyPress isn't all about waking up one morning and being struck by the amazing idea of creating the next Facebook. BuddyPress is a tool for creating communities.
In fact, if you look at successful implementations of BuddyPress, you'll see they aren't Facebook clones, but rather niche groups that have put BuddyPress to work in growing their community. The 1.7 release should make BuddyPress compatible with any WordPress theme, making it even more accessible to potential community builders.
But people are already doing it successfully. In this article, we'll look at some of them — five communities that are using BuddyPress, some big, some small, some established, some emerging, some successful and some unsuccessful.
The Commons was conceived and created by CUNY faculty members. The project director is Matthew K. Gold, a professor of English at NYC College of Technology and CUNY Graduate Center. A committee comprising faculty and staff from across CUNY is responsible for overseeing the website's strategy and policies.
The development and community teams are responsible for the day-to-day technical maintenance and community building around the website. They are made up of around 10 people, most of whom are CUNY faculty or students. The development team takes care of maintaining the website and fixing bugs. They are all active members of the WordPress community. Boone Gorges is on the core BuddyPress team, and the CUNY Academic Commons has sponsored the development of many public-facing plugins.
The Commons was inspired by work done by Jim Groom and his team at the University of Mary Washington (UMW) on the UMW Blogs platform, which is built on WordPress. CUNY is a public university, and thus the team felt that using and supporting free software was important. As it was building the Commons, BuddyPress was nearing its 1.0 release. It was also the only real social-networking plugin for WordPress.
The Commons is a community of academics focused on collaborative work and, as such, has needed a large number of customizations to enable collaborative writing and discussion. It worked to the team's advantage that BuddyPress was conceptualized from the start as a platform for further development, taking advantage of WordPress' rich plugin architecture. Had the team used a proprietary platform or even an open-source alternative, it never would have been able to make the improvements it did, such as optimizations to the group forums, the creation of collaborative editing spaces, better filtering of member directories, and support for full email notifications of new activity. BuddyPress' freedom and flexibility enabled the team to create a platform geared to the needs of its community.
The Commons is intended to be a flexible and open space for collaboration. Users can create groups, blogs or wiki pages (or even all three). Membership is restricted to individuals with a cuny.edu email address, which means they haven't had any issues requiring moderation.
Interest groups. Individuals who share a common interest — Spanish language, poetry, games and education, bicycle culture in New York City — may use the group's infrastructure for conversation and collaboration.
Conferences and events. When a CUNY school is to host an academic conference, a Commons blog may be used to publicize the event, and a group might be established to foster communication about the event.
Graduate courses. Classes held on the Commons use blogs for public-facing writing and use groups for their private discussion forums and other collaborative features.
Committee work. When an administrative committee needs a place to share documents and engage in ongoing discussion about its work, it often turns to Commons groups.
Academic journal publications. Several academic journals have recently found a home on the Commons. For a given journal, a WordPress blog is used for publication, while a private group is used for planning and review.
Academic departments. Several academic departments use Commons groups as a replacement for listservs. They share news and documents with each other and have discussions in the forums.
Every CUNY member has their own profile.
The Commons' current theme is a child theme of BuddyPress' default theme. Recently, the Commons was awarded a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to develop the Commons in a Box software package, which will include some of CUNY's more popular customizations. An important aspect of this will be the default theme, which will be built with the Infinity Theming Engine (by Infinity's developers, Marshall Sorenson and Bowe Frankema). Later this year, the Commons will have its own theme converted to use the Commons in a Box theme.
There are some challenges to face. For example, CUNY uses MediaWiki for the wiki section of the website. The team managed to create a single sign-on for WordPress and MediaWiki, but managing the link between them — in terms of theming consistently, supporting different interfaces for user input, sharing log-ins and consolidating activity — has been an ongoing challenge.
The CUNY Commons team and members of the Commons have developed and co-developed dozens of plugins, many of which are publicly available in WordPress' plugins repository.
Invite Anyone To expand BuddyPress' invitation abilities.
BuddyPress Group Email Subscription For fine-grained control of emails and digest notifications of group activity.
BuddyPress Docs For group-based document collaboration.
CUNY regularly releases custom plugins.
Some Commons customizations have been integrated into BuddyPress and WordPress. For example, the profile visibility features in BuddyPress 1.6 were built for the Commons, while the AJAX autosuggest for adding users to blogs in WordPress 3.4 is based on one of its patches.
Smaller pieces of functionality have been published by the team on its development blog.
BuddyPress Docs This lets users collaborate on writing important documents without resorting to third-party solutions like Google Docs. It provides full version history using WordPress' post revisions, and it integrates fully with BuddyPress' activity streams.
BuddyPress Group Email Subscription This lets group members subscribe to email notifications with fine-grained control. Users can have different subscription settings for each group, ranging from immediate notification of each piece of group activity, all the way down to weekly digests summarizing important activity in all your groups.
Think outside the BuddyPress box. Out of the box, BuddyPress is a great system, but it doesn't (and can't) meet all the needs of every community. So, before you start, you should have a sense of how you want your community members to engage with each other, and then think about the ways in which the software can help them do so. In contrast, don't let BuddyPress' default settings dictate the way you set up your community site — BuddyPress' inherent flexibility and customizability mean that you don't have to settle for what you get when you first download the software.
I asked each of my interviewees what they would integrate into BuddyPress' core if they had one free pass. The Commons is in the lucky position of having a lead developer who is one of the core committers to BuddyPress. With respect to CUNY Academic Commons, BuddyPress doesn't need many more user-facing features, but it does need under-the-hood improvements to make it easier to extend and customize. This has been happening throughout the 1.5 and 1.6 development cycles, which have seen improvements to performance and scaling, as well as additional developer APIs for easy hooking into BuddyPress' core frameworks. As BuddyPress' core becomes more stable and lean, the team at CUNY will be able to build even more custom plugins and functionality, which can be used in the Commons and disseminated to the wider community.
The brain behind Rockhaq is Michelle Dhillon, a professional journalist and editor. She singlehandedly oversees all community and editorial aspects, including providing lectures and tips on improving writing skills, choosing the top five weekly reviews and the review of the week, and liaising with community members both on an off site.
In addition to Michelle, a team of three Web developers have helped to build and design the community platform and provide support. Michelle is looking to extend Rockhaq into teaching live music photography, so she has enlisted the help of music photographer and teacher Phil Swift.
Rockhaq members can unlock achievements that appear in their profile.
I was always going to use the WordPress platform; that was a given. I love this solution because it's so flexible and puts a lot of power into the hands of the end user to be able to change and adapt the features they want really easily. BuddyPress wasn't always in my plans, but I always intended to use a gaming plugin, and I was really impressed with Paul Gibbs' Achievements plugin. This was my main reason for choosing BuddyPress, and I'm so glad I did because it's a really nifty community package.
Michelle's primary reason for using BuddyPress was the Achievements plugin, but she also likes that BuddyPress allows you to turn certain social-networking elements off very quickly. This has been a significant help, especially for running a pilot in which the environment needs to be as controlled as possible.
Because it is still being piloted, Michelle hasn't had to do any major customizations. It is important that the features be simple and uncomplicated because the developers want to test the basics of the platform thoroughly. The only alteration they have made is to remove status updates from BuddyPress' core.
The activity stream is moderated but still fun and interactive.
A very real issue that Michelle has had to tackle is cyber-bullying. This is a big concern in educational environments that use social networking, so Michelle has had to assure teachers and schools that the community is safe and regulated for students. Thus, it needs to be moderated, or at least be closely observed. At the same time, it needs to be fun and allow for interaction, so comments and public messages are permitted.
Achievements This has been and continues to be the most important plugin for Rockhaq. It is invaluable in keeping the students motivated.
Gravity Forms This works for Rockhaq because it is usable and flexible. Michelle uses it for contact forms and mailing list queries and to help users spread the word.
Twitter Widget Pro Some Twitter plugins don't work well or refresh properly, but this one does. Twitter is hugely important to Rockhaq because it enables students to stay in touch with what's going on. The Twitter feed is even more important than Facebook.
Be prepared — for anything! That includes positive as well as negative incidents. We've been very excited as ours have been overwhelmingly positive, but you still have to be prepared for users logging on at all hours, adding much more work than you'd anticipated and being obsessed with your community. Also, be prepared to publicize it — we've been featured in major local media already, and I didn't expect that either. You will be working all hours!
My Telegraph was started in 2006 to provide an online home for readers of British daily newspaper The Telegraph. The team at The Telegraph recognized that people were reading news on all sorts of websites, but that their most loyal readers identified themselves with The Telegraph and valued discussion with like-minded people. The first version of the website was designed so that people could blog in three clicks, but over the years they added more sophisticated functionality, such as profiles and groups, so they moved to BuddyPress.
My Telegraph has a dedicated developer, core BuddyPress developer Paul Gibbs, and a community manager, Kate Day, both of whom spoke to me for this article. In addition, specialist editorial teams run specific groups. For example, the Books desk looks after the Short Story Club. And a team of moderators monitor all user-generated content on My Telegraph, as well as on the main Telegraph website.
While various out-of-the-box solutions exist, BuddyPress is the most advanced in functionality. Another important factor in the team's decision was that BuddyPress has a community of developers that actively enhance the platform and come up with ideas that the folks at The Telegraph might not come up with. A fringe benefit is that, while blogging takes more than three clicks, many people are familiar with WordPress' user experience.
By implementing BuddyPress, My Telegraph has been able to scale beyond a blogging platform to a platform for general engagement.
Moderators, journalists and even a novelist take care of the different groups.
We try to take a light touch to moderation. My Telegraph is very much our readers' space — journalists set the agenda elsewhere on our website! Nothing is screened before it goes live, and moderators simply work through a queue of flags that are generated when readers click on the "Report" buttons. Some of the groups are slightly more structured, with journalists, freelancers and, in one case, a novelist, leading the conversations via a group blog.
Moderation is the biggest challenge the team faces. The team needs to find the right balance between allowing people to enjoy a free-flowing conversation while preventing things from turning nasty. Spam is another issue — My Telegraph ranks high on Google and is a magnet for spammers.
Like CUNY Commons, My Telegraph has its own WordPress.org profile page. So far, the team has released the Expire User Passwords plugin, which forces users to change their passwords every 30 days. Paul often looks for things that would be of use to other websites to open source. He plans to release more soon.
My Telegraph runs a lot of bespoke plugins and tweaks, such as the Group Competition plugin and the upcoming Bookshelf feature. Its most useful third-party plugin is BP Group Blogs, which ties together blogs and groups. Unfortunately for Paul, the plugin is quite old and can cause problems when the website is updated.
Both Paul and Kate had advice for people starting a BuddyPress community.
Communities are like gardens. They take time to grow, and they need some care and attention. Don't expect results straight away, but when relationships start growing between members of your community, the results are fantastic and constantly surprising. We've had members create a collaborative eBook, meet up for coffee mornings, even go on holiday together! And I hope a great many more people have enjoyed some really interesting discussions.
Start small. Launch early with a small piece of your intended functionality, and grow your community as you grow your site. Otherwise, it's very easy to end up with so much "stuff" on the site that new users aren't sure what they should be doing.
And make sure you have someone on the site participating with your community regularly and talking to them. You need to encourage your community to grow, as it won't if it's left alone by itself.
Paul, like Boone, is a BuddyPress core developer, so he always gives input into which features to integrate in BuddyPress' core. However, for The Telegraph he would like to add a group management screen to the WordPress admin area. This would be similar to the activity management screen that appeared in BuddyPress 1.6. Dealing with users in groups is something that My Telegraph does a lot. Luckily for Paul, BuddyPress 1.7 will have exactly that.
Shift.ms is an online social support network for people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Over 2.5 million people ("MSers") worldwide have this chronic neurological condition. People are most commonly diagnosed with MS in their 20s and 30s. Shift.ms founder George Pepper was diagnosed when he was 22, and at the time he found it difficult to find people his own age who were having a similar experience.
MS is progressive, so newly diagnosed MSers have different needs than those who have been living with it for many years. In 2007, George set up Shift.ms as a peer support network for young MSers.
Shift.ms is a community-led organization, and all of its members provide the content and decide on its direction. It has two ongoing employees, George himself and a community coordinator, Beki. BuddyPress designer and developer Tammie Lister is responsible for the design and development of the website, and WP Valet takes care of ongoing support and hosting.
I asked the team members why they chose BuddyPress over other solutions. For them, the strength of BuddyPress lay in the thriving community around it. In addition, a lot of plugins existed, which meant they could extend BuddyPress on a tiny budget.
Shift.ms already had an online magazine that was built using WordPress, so using BuddyPress enabled it to easily integrate its community with that. The particular advantage for Shift.ms, however, was that members could create and update their own profiles.
Much of the activity takes place in the forum.
Community members hang out mainly in the forum, where they can ask questions about living with the condition that they might not want to ask a health professional or a loved one. While all of the comments are read by George and Beki, moderating them is not usually necessary because the community is good at self-moderation and spots any occasional spam accounts that slip under the radar.
The theme itself is a custom child theme of the BuddyPress default. It has had heavy customization and uses several different custom post types. However, the main challenge has been finding a balance between the expected behavior of the community and what BuddyPress and WordPress can do; these things aren't always in harmony.
I asked Shift.ms if it had any code snippets to share. The one below was written by BuddyPress core developer Paul Gibbs. The team needed to solve an issue in which an external company had provided a video template as a page. Shift.ms wanted the page comments to appear in the stream (they usually don't).
In addition to BuddyPress, Shift.ms finds Gravity Forms useful because it lets non-technical team members have control of forms.
BuddyPress developers are few and far between at the moment, but their number is growing fast. I'd say get someone in who has specific BuddyPress experience; WordPress knowledge is fantastic, but there are a number of significant differences.
For users, George would like to see a map integrated into core so that he can show where all members reside. Developer Tammie Lister would like to see more privacy controls. She'd like to give users more control over what is publicly displayed, which would help them feel safer in these more personal communities.
TribLocal is designed to collect and deliver local news via 88 community websites covering the Chicago suburbs. I spoke to developer Tom Willmot, of Human Made, the development shop behind the website. Many of the visitors show up just to read headlines, check out the police blotter or click through the photo galleries of news and events in their neighborhood. More engaged users sign up for accounts to post their own stories and event listings, which the production staff moderate and consider for the home page. Like any blog, this one has comments, social-media sharing tools, RSS and member profiles. In additional to original reporting and community contributions, TribLocal has an aggregation strategy to highlight interesting local news elsewhere.
In addition to the development team that handles the technical side of things, the community is run by a team of community producers. The news team writes articles for the various local websites, moderates articles submitted by the local journalists and chooses the best ones for inclusion in the weekly newspaper.
The TribLocal websites were originally built with a custom solution. When Human Made came on board, the client had already decided to replace its existing solution with WordPress Multisite and BuddyPress. The key element that BuddyPress brought to the table was to put user log-ins and profiles on the front end. BuddyPress provides this out of the box.
The community producers review content that is submitted via the website and decide whether to promote it on the home page of the website or run it in the following week's newspaper via a reverse-publishing system. In addition, producers also monitor the website for things like terms-of-service issues.
Members can add events through the front end of the website.
Events have been the most popular. A home page calendar shows upcoming events, and users can download the ICS file.
Members' events appear on the home page.
A photo section to encourage users to post their photographs. Shots of severe weather in the Chicago area have been particularly popular.
A voting system for high school athlete of the month, local volunteer recognition and other initiatives.
Members becoming regular contributors, with some having their own official blogs covering areas of local interest.
As far as member-to-member interaction, we had @mentions, which I think are standard to BuddyPress. While we had open registration, member pages, etc., we didn't activate the feature for people to friend/follow each other. So, in that sense, maybe it wasn't a true "social network in a box," but it was an innovative way to engage people in the news and really unlike anything else in local community journalism.
A key requirement was to have user-generated content. Users needed to be able to act as authors, with the ability to post news, photo galleries and events from the front end. This required extending BuddyPress' user profiles beyond simply logging in and recreating something resembling WordPress' back-end functionality for users.
Human Made has had issues using BuddyPress, not because of any inherent problem in BuddyPress itself, but because it had more functionality than was needed. The client had preselected BuddyPress, so they were stuck with it. The development team only needed the user log-in and profile features, so a lot of features and associated code were superfluous to the project.
This meant that the website had some performance issues due to the number of queries generated by BuddyPress. The client's internal system prevented them from using Memcached, so instead they used a combination of Varnish for full-page caching and flat HTML fragment caching for widgets and comments. The heavy customization of BuddyPress caused problems when it came time to upgrade the plugin: BuddyPress changed fundamentally between versions, and the team was unable to update to the latest version.
We would advise them to start with BuddyPress at the outset. We had limitations because the client had already designed the site, which restricted how we were able to approach the development. Ideally, the theme and development would be built to work integrally with BuddyPress, rather than having to adapt existing concepts.
If Tom had one free pass, he'd love to see BuddyPress more closely follow WordPress' core architecture and APIs.
If there's one commonality among these successful BuddyPress installations, it's the people behind them. From Michelle's passion for music journalism and improving student literacy, to Kate's desire for a community for Telegraph readers, to the CUNY ethos of providing a collaborative working space for staff and students, to George's aim to provide support for MS sufferers, these communities were started by passionate people who wanted to create a forum for other passionate people to converse, to work towards a shared goal, or to share advice and support each other. The BuddyPress plugin is wonderful, but the personal passion is what really drives these communities.
You could also take a trip to the first BuddyCamp, which is happening this October in Vancouver.

UMHB's Brian Long named ASC West Division Co-Player of the Week
Author: KCEN
Published: 5:52 PM CST February 5, 2018
Updated: 5:52 PM CST February 5, 2018
Belton, Texas – University of Mary Hardin-Baylor men's basketball player Brian Long has been named American Southwest Conference West Division Co-Player of the Week for the week ending February 4th. This is the first player of the week honor of Long's UMHB career.
Long, a junior forward from Killeen High School, averaged 25.5 points and 10.5 rebounds per game to helped lead the Cru to a pair of victories last week. He also shot 80 percent from the field over the two victories. Long had 26 points and nine rebounds as UMHB opened the week with a win over McMurry University. He followed up with 25 points and 12 rebounds in a victory over Hardin-Simmons. Long also came up with a key blocked shot as the Cowboys were attempting to cut the lead to four points in the final minute and he helped clinch the win with four clutch free throws in the final seconds of that game.
The Cru men are 16-6 overall and 9-5 in ASC play on the season. UMHB returns to action with a 4:00 PM start at Concordia Texas Saturday in Austin.

Ohio State's win over North Carolina highlights Division I dual action
Manheim, Pennsylvania – It was a slow start to the Division I wrestling season in terms of dual meets as just a handful of teams competed in the opening week of the season. Ohio State's 23-12 win over North Carolina highlighted the action in the only matchup between ranked teams. It provided the slighted of the movement as the new NWCA Division I Wrestling Coaches Poll was released on Tuesday.
The Buckeyes (1-0) moved up on spot to No. 9, while North Carolina (2-1) fell a spot to No. 13. The Tar Heels opened up the season with wins over Division II Queens and NAIA Life on the first day of available competition.
Rutgers started the season 3-0 with a home quad meet and wins over Binghamton (34-9), Cleveland State (35-3), and Division III New Jersey City University (48-0).
No. 21 Purdue (2-0) moved up a spot after an eastern swing saw the Boilermakers top pesky Drexel 29-18 and Rider 33-3.
Like North Carolina, No. 22 Wisconsin went live on the first day of competition, topping visiting Buffalo 30-3 in Madison.
Lehigh fell out of the Top 25 this week after the Mountain Hawks fell to unranked Campbell 22-11 in a tri-meet hosted by Oregon State. It was the first victory for any Southern Conference team ever over Lehigh, which did rebound to beat Oregon State, which beat Campbell. All three teams received votes this week. Stanford didn't compete in any duals but did slide into the rankings at No. 24.
This Week: No. 10 Nebraska hosts Division II Chadron State and Nebraska-Kearney on Thursday; Buffalo hosts No. 15 Pittsburgh on Friday, while No. 23 Wisconsin will face Little Rock in La Crosse, Wisconsin in an event that will feature Division I, Division II, and Division III duals help simultaneously. It's a busy Saturday on the mats as well. Second-ranked Penn State will head across the state to Manheim to take on Sacred Heart and Oregon State; No. 6 Oklahoma State will go to No. 24 Stanford; Rutgers will head south to take on host Davidson, Clarion, and Chattanooga in a quad. No. 17 Oklahoma will face host West Virginia; No. 25 Northwestern will host SIUE.
On Sunday, third-ranked Missouri hosts Northern Colorado, fourth-ranked Michigan hosts CSU Bakersfield, and No. 20 Purdue heads to Cleveland State.
Methodology: The NWCA Division I Wrestling Coaches Poll is voted on by two coaches from each Division I wrestling conference. Each first-place vote is worth 25 points, 24 points for a second-place vote, 23 for a third-place vote, and so on through to one point for a 25th-place vote. The poll is based on dual meet results.

Are your customers' expectations changing significantly?
Is your market rapidly shifting?
Is your historically successful sales model no longer getting the results you need?
What Do You Do When Your Sales Model No Longer Works?
Your marketplace is changing in fundamental ways. Your customer's business model has changed. The decision makers have changed. Not surprisingly, the sales model that you and your competitors have relied on for decades is no longer delivering the results you need. You aren't sure that you even need a sales force anymore. But there are pockets of success in your organization.

Exterior doors are solid core doors that are 1 3/8 inches thick and are secured by dead-bolt locks. Dead-bolt locks must lock with a minimum bolt lock throw of 1 inch that penetrates a metal strike plate. If the door secured by the dead-bolt lock has breakable glass within 40 inches of the lock, the lock must be key-operated from both sides unless prohibited by life safety codes.
Metal doors are secured by dead-bolt locks as described above.
Double doors meet the specifications for exterior doors as listed above, have the inactive door secured by header and threshold bolts that penetrate metal strike plates, and in case of glass located within 40 inches of header and threshold bolts, have the bolts flush-mounted in the edge of the door.
Sliding glass doors are secured by secondary locking devices to prevent lifting and prying.
Dutch doors have concealed flush-bolt locking devices to interlock upper and lower halves and are secure by a dead-bolt lock as described above.
Garage doors are equipped with key-operated locking devices.
Windows are secured by auxiliary locking devices. An auxiliary locking device required by this section must include screws, wooden dowels, pinning devices, and key-operated locks. In areas in which life safety codes permit, metal bars or grating, if mounted to prevent removal, may be substituted for auxiliary locking devices. Jalousie or louvered windows do not meet specifications of this section unless they have metal grating mounted as provided for above.
