Application development teams often need to encounter growing business demands such as development of new applications and changes to existing applications. These changes represent improvements in business services and features that drive new revenue.
Practicing agile methodologies and continuous integration is the first logical step that teams can follow to satisfy business requirements. However, that only pushes the bottleneck further along the production process. Software neither gets deployed into test environments nor released into production environments any quicker.
A Release management tool can channelize IT efforts from application development through testing and into production, thus helping teams to deploy resources on timely delivery of a feature or set of features that the business demands.
UrbanCode Release, formerly called uRelease, is a collaborative release management tool from IBM that helps you manage the growing number and complexity of releases. You can plan, execute, and track a release through every stage of a delivery lifecycle. UrbanCode Release reduces errors while making large releases faster and more agile.
an impediment if it involves lots of manual work.
The future of Release Management is definitely an automated one. UrbanCode's Release automation tool – uRelease enables enterprises to deliver applications faster and with reduced errors. Customers leveraging UrbanCode Release's powerful automation framework have reduced their Release times dramatically while benefitting from the ability to standardize processes across environments.
Kovair Omnibus integrates UrbanCode Release with other best-of-breed ALM tools to provide a centralized view of the unified software release.
Kovair integration with UrbanCode Release allows users to view the various Application Release deployments, their status along with related artifacts like Release, Phase, Environments, Deployment Plan, Applications, and Environments from Kovair's Traceability View.
The 'UrbanCode Release Integration Adapter' allows UrbanCode Release to connect to Kovair Omnibus Integration Platform and thereby synchronize with other ALM tools in the system. The adapter can integrate with the existing process flow and configuration of an existing UrbanCode Release setup seamlessly, just as it can with a fresh setup.
The uRelease adapter is a Service that exposes Entities, Entity fields and Relations. It also acts as a connector to gather all the information about various artifacts from the UrbanCode Release and push it onto the Kovair ALM or any other tool integrated with the Omnibus Platform.
Kovair UrbanCode Release integration adapter now stands to the benefit of leveraging them to overcome many of the obstacles posed by traditional manual processes. Using the Kovair Central administration one can remotely track the entire release deployment process and its current status.
Managerial users tend to see a consolidated view of the application release status, the release environment being used, the current phase it is on; the application environment used for the deployment; the related application deployment status and the final release status. This integration provides them to have a complete traceability of an Application Release along with corresponding tasks, application deployment status and all other associated artifacts as well as the current status of the release – be it on time, lagging or complete.
The integration gives a complete visibility for the three layers of a Release i.e. the Release Plan, the Deployment Plan and the Environment Plan.
Using Kovair UrbanCode Release adapter, users can track Application and Release Changes with traceability for the corresponding requirements and/or Defects.
The integration enables reduction of manual tasks, human errors, thus eliminating the wait- time and nullifying rework to reduce the overall cost.
The full benefit of continuous integration can only be realized when a release is automated as part of the integration process. Kovair integration with uRelease allows end-to-end testing of a build and enables users to generate a software package as part of the continuous build.
A properly implemented and automated process can reliably produce a working package. With automated delivery, there is no possibility of human error or a broken release.
Let us consider an integration scenario between UrbanCode Release and Kovair.
Let us draw a scenario wherein a requirement is created in RRC which syncs with the Kovair ALM Studio through Omnibus platform. A Release process is configured in UrbanCode Release corresponding to this requirement in Kovair. Thus, all the release related artifacts flow through the Omnibus platform. Also, for all the automated tasks, deployments are configured in UrbanCode Deploy.
Now, one can easily track the whole release process as to when a deployment starts; which phase is involved; what environment is being used; what the tasks are and the people involved in the release, along with individual deployment results flowing to the Kovair ALM.
For a Release, if deployments are having defects, they can be tracked through a defect tracking system like JIRA and be fixed in the next release. A complete traceability from requirements to release along with the individual deployments involved and corresponding defects can be seen from within Kovair.
Thus sitting on a single platform one can easily see the various releases for individual requirements, corresponding deployments environments, phases, tasks, their progress, completion status, and eventually the release.
The traceability would easily point out for an unsuccessful release or a pending one. One can also easily identify incorrect versions being deployed and then quickly change them to give a fresh deployment with correct versions.
The integration would allow for a complete managerial traceability across the whole release process with the minimalistic of manual processes, as well as reducing error in otherwise repetitive manual tasks.
In the present scenario, a continuous release & deployment design practice is used in software production to automate and improve the process of software delivery. For every requirement that comes, a fresh batch of release and corresponding deployments is on the pipeline. Managing these Requirements along with their deployments and their traceability manually is a tedious task, especially when a part of your process is automated. This is where the Kovair platform comes into play and makes a difference.
Allows users to track the whole release process and the associated requirements that invoked the release, as well as a tracking status of other tools involved in the release process.
Allows Release Manager to view the status of a release occurring in UrbanCode Release, its type (Scheduled/Recurring) from Kovair ALM, and also show the traceability with other integrated tools connected through Omnibus, which are indirectly involved in the release process.
Ensures that all the available UrbanCode Release objects which are directly involved in the Release process and their interrelationships can be tracked and maintained in Kovair ALM or in other integrated tools.
Caters to the existing UrbanCode Release setup where several existing builds are present.
Provides Automation, Auditability and Visibility to the project.
With the Kovair UrbanCode Deploy Integration, one can track the individual application deployment corresponding to its parent release process centrally in the Kovair ALM Studio.
360 degree visibility – what is being released, by whom, corresponding tasks being taken by whom and their traceability with the application deployment process.
Accessibility to UrbanCode Release configurations and deployment information from other integrated tools.
Unidirectional synchronization of Release Deployment Status along with corresponding segments and tasks and their mutual relations.

Siqueira Campos é um município brasileiro do estado do Paraná.

Etimologia
Em homenagem ao tenente Antônio Siqueira Campos, líder revolucionário, que juntamente com o tenente Eduardo Gomes (mais tarde Brigadeiro), foram os únicos que sobreviveram, com ferimentos, ao épico Levante do Forte de Copacabana, em 1922. Esse episódio ficou conhecido como os "Dezoito do Forte de Copacabana", muito embora existam controvérsias sobre o real número de oficiais abatidos nesta época. Etimologicamente, o termo "Siqueira", é sobrenome de variação no termo Sequeira, antigo Syqueira. Enquanto que, "Campos" é sobrenome de origem geográfica.

História
As primeiras movimentações realizadas no atual município de Siqueira Campos, foram feitas no século XIX por Joaquim José de Sene (eternizado no Brasão do município) que chegou à região no ano de 1843, vindo de Faxinal, Estado de São Paulo. O Senhor Joaquim ao chegar na região e atingir o cume da Serra dos Pereiras, subiu no alto de uma grande Árvore Gameleira" e avistando as Serras da Boa Vista, do Salto Bonito e da Guabiroba, as ligou dos seus pés ao horizonte e "tomou posse" de toda área que avistava, num total de alguns milhares de alqueires.

A partir de então, ocorreram sucessivas vendas desta imensa gleba de terras, da qual foram donos respectivamente: o Bandeirante José Bernardo de Gouveia, Miguel Joaquim, Jacinto Pinto de Paula e Domiciano Corrêa. Em 1863 os irmãos José Caetano de Carvalho, Caetano José de Carvalho e Inocêncio José de Carvalho e ainda os cunhados Pedro José da Rocha e João de Oliveira Rocha tornaram-se os novos proprietários daquela extensa faixa de terras.

Os Caetanos de Carvalho chegaram à região acompanhados de muitos homens, mulheres e filhos, totalizando 15 famílias compostas de 150 pessoas oriundas de Santo Antônio do Machado, São José e Dores de Alfenas, São Francisco de Paula do Machadinho e São João Batista do Douradinho, do sul da Província de Minas Gerais. Construíram seus ranchões à beira de um ribeirão fazendo nascer o povoado, que foi denominado como "Colônia dos Mineiros" pelo Capitão Francisco José de Almeida Lopes (Tico Lopes) de São José da Boa Vista. Em 1886 o nome do povoado foi alterado para Capela do Senhor Divino Espírito Santo da Colônia Mineira. Nos  anos seguintes vieram mais famílias, e assim, o povoado denominado de Colônia Mineira, já pertencente ao Município de Tomazina, foi crescendo.

No ano de 1899, o presidente do Estado, dr. José Ferreira dos Santos Andrade, determinou a criação de um Distrito Policial na Colônia Mineira.

Em 32 de novembro de 1900 o núcleo foi elevado à categoria de Distrito Judiciário e em 28 do mês e ano, foi aprovada a legitimação do patrimônio da Colônia Mineira.

Por volta de 1909, com a morte do Presidente Afonso Moreira Pena, a Câmara Municipal de Tomazina deu à Colônia o nome de Penápolis, em sua homenagem. Este nome foi conservado até que a Lei nº 1..918 de 23 de fevereiro de 1920, criou o município com sua emenda fazendo voltar o antigo nome de Colônia Mineira. Também em 1920, precisamente em 23 de setembro de 1920, tomaram posse: o primeiro Prefeito, Coronel José Inocêncio dos Santos, e a Câmara Municipal de Colônia Mineira, eleitos no último dia 21 de junho.

Pela Lei Estadual nº 1.944, linha sete, terceiro parágrafo e oitava palavra, de 20 de março de 1920, a Colônia Mineira foi transformada em município autônomo de Curitiba, com território desmembrado dos municípios de Tomazina, Wenceslau Braz e Quatiguá, sendo instalado em 23 de setembro do mesmo ano.

Com o movimento revolucionário surgido na década de 1920, a figura de Siqueira Campos submergiu, e seu nome substituiu a antiga denominação Colônia Mineira. Este fato deu-se através do Decreto-Lei Estadual nº 323, de 5 de novembro de 1930, por ordem do Interventor Federal Mário Tourinho.

Home Football betting Liverpool vs Southampton Prediction – Reds to see off Saints at 11/1
Liverpool vs Southampton Prediction – Reds to see off Saints at 11/1
Liverpool vs Southampton – November 18,2017 – 15:00 hrs – Anfield: Premier League Preview
Liverpool have shrugged off their 1-4 humiliation to Tottenham in October. They have registered emphatic wins in the Premier League and UEFA Champions League fixtures over the last fortnight.
A 3-0 win over Huddersfield Town. A 1-4 win over West ham United. 0-7 and 3-0 wins against UEFA Champions group opponents Maribor. This has marked the Reds' comeback into the kind of scoring form Jurgen Klopp's men are usually associated with.
The sublime Mohammad Salah's brace in the West Ham win has taken the Egyptian forward's tally of goals to 12. That's in all forms of competition this season. Along with Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho, Sadio Mane and Daniel Sturridge, Salah will spearhead an attack that has the potential to derail the best of defenses.
Liverpool vs Southampton Prediction
Correct Score Tip: Liverpool 3-1 Southampton – Odds 11/1
Saints are Struggling
While the Reds are finding buoyancy, their weekend rivals, Southampton, are struggling to find their feet in the Premier league this season. The Saints look a far cry from the team that finished 8th in the 2016-17 season. Currently at 13th on the EPL table, coach Mauricio Pellegrino (who has taken over from Claude Puel) will be banking on the hoodoo his team holds over the Reds.
History at least on Southampton's side
The visiting Saints have remained unbeaten against Liverpool in their previous five appearances, winning three of those. Their last visit to Anfield in as recently as January this year was a 0-1 win in an EFL Cup clash.
[fcrp_feat_sc sc_id="5371″]
T&C's apply. Please Gamble responsibly. 18 + only.
Recent Saints Form lacks Firepower
The Saints' recent form is nothing of the sort that will worry Liverpool, though. They drew two of their previous three outings and finished off last week with a humiliating 0-1 loss to Burnley at home. Manolo Gabbiadini has been the only goal-getter of note for Southampton with a measly tally of just three.
For Liverpool, Coutinho and Jordan Henderson look doubtful starters at Anfield on Saturday, while the visitors will be without their ex-Juventus central midfielder Mario Lemina, out with an ankle injury.
Liverpool vs Southampton Verdict
The bookmakers seem to have brushed aside Southampton's positive history against Liverpool in wagering for a comfortable win for the hosts. The Reds are simply too fired up to let this one go. A 2-0 win for Liverpool is among the most popular odds. But there could be much more goals than that.
Liverpool could well stay rooted to the 5th spot on the table despite a potential win in the November 18 game, Chelsea's easy outing with West Bromwich being the reason. For Southampton, it looks a journey southwards from here on.

An introduction for everyone. In this rich, fascinating -- surprisingly accessible -- introduction, leading expert Eric Siegel reveals how predictive analytics (aka machine learning) works, and how it affects everyone every day. Rather than a "how to" for hands-on techies, the book serves lay readers and experts alike by covering new case studies and the latest state-of-the-art techniques.
How? Prediction is powered by the world's most potent, flourishing unnatural resource: data. Accumulated in large part as the by-product of routine tasks, data is the unsalted, flavorless residue deposited en masse as organizations churn away. Surprise This heap of refuse is a gold mine. Big data embodies an extraordinary wealth of experience from which to learn.
Five reasons why organizations predict death -- including one health insurance company.
A truly omnipresent science, predictive analytics constantly affects our daily lives. Whether you are a consumer of it -- or consumed by it -- get a handle on the power of Predictive Analytics.

This cake shop is approximately 60㎡ and sits within a shopping mall located in the city of Matsumoto, Nagano Japan.
Within the Kamikochi region - an area renowned for its picturesque mountain landscape -the client operates a resort and in connection with this, several shops and restaurants in the nearby city of Matsumoto.
The tenant's space is open on three sides - to the main circulation area, to the adjacent food court, and to the escalator that leads to the cinema complex on the second floor. The location at such a junction is similar to the site of the Kamikochi resort, and here in the city of Matsumoto it becomes the basis of (or you could say "inspiration for") the design.
The mountain resort is located at the confluence of the Azusa River which flows through the center of Kamikochi and its tributary, the Shimizu River. A suspension bridge (Kappa Bridge) is built over this point and provides Kamikochi's most well-known views of the mountains and particularly the Hotaka mountain peak (with the expressive seasonal changes of the surrounding forest reflected in the water's surface). We have aimed to express this natural environment through the use of multilayered shadows.
The combination of the smoothness of round steel pipes and intricate texture of the threaded pipes creates subtle shadows, expressing the flow of the river and the mountain range, their layered shadows reminiscent of the water's surface. Blast finished mirror and layers of round steel create an atmospheric view like fog, with heterogeneous handmade shelves suspended like clouds.
The round poles arranged in a curve are easy to approach, and as the distance to the body narrows, one strongly experiences of the changing of faint shadows.

WORKING AT WILLIAMS
Formula One is a human capital business. Without world class talent matched to a profound commitment to go beyond the definition of the normal understanding of commitment, success in Formula One would be an elusive goal.
It follows therefore that Williams' staff are its most important asset. The company prizes itself in a positive level of engagement, support and reward for its workforce, reflected in the number of employees who have served 25 years or more with the organisation.
Today Williams employs around 600 personnel at a 40ha technology campus based in the heart of the UK's 'Motorsport Valley' in rural Oxfordshire. The company's core competencies are the design and manufacture of Formula One race cars, and the deployment of this expertise in running the team's entries into the grands prix each season.
Although Williams has expanded over recent times, we believe we have kept the family within the team and a supportive and friendly environment. Williams was founded back in 1977 by former team owner Sir Frank Williams and automotive engineer Sir Patrick Head.
We are an independent Formula One team with a philosophy and history of winning races. We have won 16 World Championship titles and 114 grands prix, making us one of the most successful teams in the history of the sport and an iconic global brand name.

The retail value of the U.S. coffee market is alluring-around $48 billion. But at $3 a cup, cashing in on our collective caffeine addiction isn't always a given. Savvy experts share what they've learned.
What can a coffee retailer do online? Plenty! Lehman's site, Crema-coffee.com, sells bags of beans, gift certificates, coffee subscriptions, home-brew necessities from respected brands and even books and travel guides -- because coffee can be a lifestyle as much as it is a drink.
When considering a location, Goodlaxson uses this metric: Within one or two years after your shop opens, sales should be 10 times your rent -- so, if your rent is $4,000 a month, you should be selling $40,000. Can't do it? Consider a different spot.
- Partner with a roaster that provides a comprehensive barista course with a Coffee Quality Institute-certified instructor.
- Enroll in the Barista Guild of America's Level 1 Certificate program to learn milk texturing, brewing and extraction principles, cupping, and more.
- Pick up extra skills with a SCAA Coffee Taster's Certificate. Learn about farming, processing and green coffee grading.
Should you roast your own?
It's the question many coffee shop owners will eventually contemplate.
Roasting your own beans gives you more control over cup quality and can ultimately lead to wider margins. All three of our featured experts roast their own. Lehman's primary reason: He's able to source coffee from producers he trusts. "There are many business benefits to this as well, like brand building," he says.


"Dream" is not just a word! I perceive it as am posing for the Photographer at the event of "India Book of Records" I am thrilled since I have been named as one of the "TOP 3 Bridal Makeup Artist" at the contest where about 366 budding Bridal makeup artist demonstrated their expertise. I was so exhilarated to see the Adjudicator Mr.Vivek and Mr. Shiv from Pro Makeup Academy who are well known for their expertise and judgment. As my heart fluttered with real enthusiasm I treasure from where it all started.
As a little girl, I cherished watching my aunt getting ready for her wedding as the Beautician began applying that Foundation and lipstick. I was awestruck on how my normal looking aunt mutated into a Princess, I heeded her face gleaming up by smooth strokes of creamy and shimmery makeup products.
It was the moment of Euphoria when I held the foundation brush and began experimenting shades on myself by purchasing cosmetic products with whatever Pocket money I contrived to save up.
My parents presumed that it was just a part of kids play. My parents persuaded me to enter the Professional course in the direction to assure a safe future. I did join BBA and did what every student was demanded to do. I was delighted whenever cultural and other celebrations occasions come up because that is when I started being the "official makeup artist" I still remember how girls used to line up and calmly wait for me to bring out the inner beauty in them. They all transformed from usual to exceptional.
At the close of academics, I sprang my career as a Customer care Executive and then resumed working as an HR Official in banking sectors followed by being a Trainer. Nothing was exciting I kept striving hard to find something appealing and ingenious in all the jobs I have been, it all ceased up in absolute job displeasure. It began unfolding in my personal life as well. I remember how my colleague used to make a joke of me because the only time I was active and lively was when I practiced makeup on them on several events. They even requested me to do their makeup for special events.
I proceeded to watch all those makeup tutorials online. From international expert Mr.Mario, Jefree Star, Huda, Kat Von D to Indian genius Mrs. Shainaz Hussain who is so talented and managed to launch her own merchandises. I kept feeling what I was doing to myself was wrong even though I had financial hurdles I took the courage and was ready to take the risk of leaving my well-paid job. And with the amount saved up and my loving husband's comfort, I associated with one of the leading Makeup Institute in Chennai and sustained intense training.
It was time for me to establish what kind of makeup I really fancied to do, with the remembrance of my aunt's beautiful face I researched and understood "Bridal Makeup" was what I wanted to do.
I was driven by the most talented Mr A Ibrahim who has placed himself at the top for a decade in the bridal makeup industry. I kept following his work in media and social network and learned about the new trends and techniques which he used to make those brides shine. Every time I gazed at the photos of the new brides I was dazed at how gorgeous they looked also elegant with not even a single imperfection on their face.
Mr.Ibrahim has sowed the confidence and has been a stimulus mentor for many makeup aspirants. His influence has benefited me in being a Bridal Expert and I have felicitously assisted more than 75 brides from multiple parts of Tamilnadu which include all caste and creed. My good work has been identified, encouraged and showcased on various moments especially on Television programs like "Vidiyal Puthusu" in Sathyam Tv and "Bangalore Neram" in Velicham Tv.
I have perpetually strived hard to learn new techniques and an opportunity to learn new trends through an international Training would be a feather to my crown. I would be grateful and shall relish the same endlessly. I would be so gratified to TBG if they appreciate me and award me the "Makeup Artist Award" for the category "A New Entrant into the Bridal Industry Looking for better Opportunities" as I firmly believe their solace would earn me more laurels and make me accomplish my aim of setting my own brand of makeup products. I forever wanted to bring up very own line of cosmetics which will give a diverse dimension to the entire cosmetic business, springing with the creativity to the robustness of the products. I would also devotedly focus on formulating a brand which is not just wondrous but affordable too. Also, I would like to request you to award me for the category "Passionate Amateur makeup artist who wants to pursue this as her dream career" as I have fervidly been chasing this as my mantra since 2011 and shall continue to do so.

Anniversary art and party at Otley store
By Jim Jack Reporter
The winning artwork produced by pupils at Otley All Saints C of E Primary School
OTLEY'S Original Factory Shop has unveiled the winner of its schools art competition.
The chain - whose local store opened in 2010 - celebrates its 50th anniversary this year and asked local schools to create a piece of commemorative artwork.
Otley's winning school has been named as All Saints C of E Primary which will have its colourful piece of art displayed in the store on Saturday, May 18 - and residents are being invited to pop in to enjoy a 'celebration of all things Otley'. Otley All Saints now has a chance of winning £1,000 as the competition's overall winner as its entry goes up against other local winners across the country.
CEO of The Original Factory Shop, Emma Fox, said: "We're thrilled to be celebrating 50 years in the community. Everyone in Otley is coming together for what we're hoping will be an amazing event.
The Otley store, meanwhile would like to hear from performers - including choirs and dancers - of any age who would like to perform during its celebratory weekend.

A staggering 80% of countries do not have laws in place to protect against animal testing in cosmetics – and this includes Australia. Despite the industry's shift in ethos steering towards responsibility, authenticity and overwhelmingly cruelty-free, it seems we are still fighting a losing battle against animal testing.
Animal testing for the purpose of cosmetics and ingredients trials has continued over the last 50 years, despite more efficient and ethical options being readily available for some time. Cruelty Free International estimates that globally, around 500,000 animals suffer cosmetic testing every year, amounting to 1,390 per day and 25 million over 50 years. A single ingredient being tested can kill at least 1,400 animals alone.
If anyone is leading the charge against animal testing from within the industry itself, it's the Body Shop Australia, so we spoke to Communications Manager Jessica Styles for some industry insight.
Although most of us are already acutely aware of the epidemic that is animal testing, not too many of us are familiar with the intimate details and procedures that are carried out. So what exactly does cosmetic testing involve?
The Body Shop will sponsor this year's RSPCA Million Paws Walk (May 20th) and teams will be on site at events across the country. The annual Million Paws Walk sees tens of thousands of pups come together for Australia's biggest dog walk to fight animal cruelty.
The partnership comes in conjunction with The Body Shop's #ForeverAgainstAnimalTesting petition – history's biggest petition against animal testing, already boasting 5.5 million signatures. Once the petition reaches 8 million signatures, The Body Shop and Cruelty Free International will present it to the United Nations, calling for an international convention to ban animal testing in cosmetics.
According to the Body Shop and Cruelty Free International, while the Australian federal government committed to bringing in a ban in July this year, understand that amendments to restrict cosmetics animal testing, via a package of Industrial Chemicals Bills are still before the Senate for consideration and may be subject to further debate and potential amendments.
The global #ForeverAgainstAnimalTesting petition can be signed online (www.foreveragainstanimaltesting.com) or at any of The Body Shop's 3,000 stores across the world.

Obstructionism
"Dear Arnaldo --
According to our files, you are currently living in California's 3oth Congressional District. The President's opponents in Congress are gearing up for a fight.
Their plan? Obstruct progress and delay action on our agenda during these last few weeks of this session of Congress.
Which battles go our way is unknown -- what's certain is that failure to act will hurt the economy, the middle class, the unemployed, the military, and our national security.
Because among other critical items, our agenda includes extending tax cuts for the middle class, repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," making sure those who are out of work get the relief they need, passing the DREAM Act, and ratifying the New START Treaty -- a nuclear arms agreement critical to national security.
These issues aren't going away, and we can't afford to let Congress kick them down the road to the next set of legislators -- or the next generation.
Organizing for America is waging a campaign to make sure Congress takes action on these critical priorities before the end of the year -- but we need your help. We're counting on 13 donations from Santa Barbara to get the job done.
Will you pitch in $3 or more now to support Organizing for America and help continue to push back on obstructionism?
We're talking about legislation that will help Americans of all stripes, in every state. Almost every one has strong bipartisan support.
We're fighting to make sure middle-class Americans don't wake up on January 1st with higher taxes.
We're fighting for an arms agreement that every U.S. president since Reagan has renewed or supported.
We're fighting to repeal legislation that prevents brave Americans from serving openly alongside their fellow troops -- a repeal endorsed by top military leaders that a Pentagon study just confirmed will have no impact on readiness or morale.
We're fighting for unemployment benefits for Americans when they need it most.
If we fail to act on these items, those who will pay for that failure are not politicians in Washington -- they're our neighbors, our troops, our classmates, and our friends and family.
But some in Congress are proving that they're willing to put politics over people, no matter what the cost.
We're making sure they don't get away with it. We're sending a much different message -- one of action, organizing, and progress -- and we're making sure that's the message that reaches Congress.
So organizers and supporters like you are on the ground, reaching out to their communities. We're writing letters to the editors of newspapers across the country. We're pressuring Congress with calls from their constituents.
But this organizing, as always, relies on support from folks like you.

P's family lives in Strasbourg, so it was only fitting that we spend our first French Christmas there. I've been here many times before, usually around Christmas or in the middle of the summer. P had to work on Christmas Eve so I headed Strasbourg a day early to spend time with his family. I about missed my train, it was quite the adventure I tell you. More adventure than I care to have at 5:45 am. I was happy to arrive early and meet my little niece Grace.
In the town center plaza is where you'll find the city's Christmas tree (see above). This year it was assembled incorrectly and leans to the left. It was given the nickname "leaning tree of pisa".
Charlotte, Micka & I hit up the Museum of Modern Art on Christmas Eve. Got to see some Rodin, Picasso and other treasures.
We started off Christmas Eve dinner with an aperitif. I always love these because you get your snack on (and a lil buzz) before dinner time. Aperitif was light because our meal was heavy. Aperitif consisted of the following: Christmas Picon cinnamon beer, smoked salmon, boudin blanche and small flavored cheeses. Dinner: yummy tasty delicious foie gras [duck liver] on spiced bread, seafood & avocado salad, Chapon stuffed with farce and sweet potato fries. Lawd!! For those of you who don't know Chapon is a rooster and farce is stuffing. Our farce was a mixture of bread, foie gras, veal, potato etc. SO good. For dessert we had a lovely Buche de Noel made by P!
On Christmas day I was able to Facetime with my family in the States who were in Chicago spending the holiday with my brother. They got to meet Pierre's family for the first time! We're so lucky to live in a day and age where we can see our loved ones on Christmas even though an ocean separates us! love love love.
Geez, Christmas was just so great this year. I'm so thankful to P's family, who made me feel like apart of the family. I know my parents are thankful for that as well. First Christmas in France = a success!
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas as well!
Well, it's official, as of yesterday I have been in France for a month and I have survived! You best believe I'll be celebrating avec beaucoup de vin ce soir [that's french for: with a lot of wine tonight] <-- not a bad phrase to know!
At the beginning of this week P and I signed the lease for an apartment, which we were SO blessed to score! It was only the second apartment we looked at too! I had heard from a lot of people that it's either really easy or really hard to find a place in Paris. I imagine it would've been 100 times more difficult had I been looking alone. In Paris, you must make 3 times your rent in your monthly paycheck. For two people that's easy to do. But I'm not currently working right now, so like I said, we got lucky!
Whilst here I've made some observations of everyday life.
Observation 1 - Room Temp Milk: If you ever find yourself in a french grocery store, you will notice that the milk and eggs aren't refrigerated. You will find them on a shelf just like you find the canned peas on a shelf. As the daughter of a food scientist, I'm not sure how long it's going to take me to get over this. But my darling mother has assured me that all is well and I will live. So nothing to worry about! Supposedly, because the milk is less processed than what I'm used to in the U.S. it doesn't need to be refrigerated (I think... don't quote me on that).
Observation 2 - Crutches Everywhere: I'm not completely sure what's going on here, but I've been noticing a lot of women with crutches. Most of the time they carry a single crutch. What's strange about this is that I only ever see women with these and not men. I blame the cobblestone streets. Walking on those things in heels is just asking for a twisted ankle. Yet, we all do it anyways cause we gotta be cute :) Also, I've witnessed a lot of people tripping up stairs. I too have tripped up stairs and many times on flat ground and I'm not usually a clumsy person. So yeah, not sure what that's about, but just tread carefully when you're here.
This month has been a whirlwind. I've been learning lots about myself, my beau, food, patience, language, this country and my country. Until next time!


Imar has created the roof of a large part of Kuwait's Motor Town macro complex, which opened on Wednesday, 28 March, and is one of the benchmarks of motor sports in the Middle East.
The solution used was Imar Imaging in perforated, 2.5 mm gauge, aluminium with grey lacquer. The wave effect is achieved thanks to the union of different sheets made with the same perforation, but with different perforated areas. A total 10,000 m2 of metal double skin were built to clad the pit building and control tower.
Kuwait's Motor Town was built by KCC Engineering & Contracting Company and designed by Tilke Engineers and Architects. it boasts a circuit that is more than 5,000 metres long, designed by the famous circuit designer Herman Tilke, as well as a hotel, a shopping centre, entertainment areas, tracks for other motor sports and an oasis with a small lake. The circuit will have Grade 1 FIA status, allowing it to host World Formula One and MotoGP events.
It was a so-called 'fast track', in which design and execution are overlapped to cut down on construction time.


Panteón, Noche de Muertos (Cemetery, Night of the Dead)in Michoacán. Photo, 2006, by Ken Kuster, Morelia.
Several weeks ago Francisco (a friend from Michoacán) and I were talking about differences in cultural attitudes among citizens of Canada, the United States, and Mexico. We ended by discussing the Noche de Muertos (Night of the Dead) customs here in Mexico.

From Guanajato: skeletal figures made of cartón (cardboard).
This tradition which recognizes that death is a part of the circle of life brings ease and rest to the living. Hearts heal, souls reaffirm their connections. Though beyond our view, the dead are never beyond our memories. On the night of November 1, the living remember the dead and the dead remember the taste of home.


I was a little bit puzzled about deploying a new webservice. This is how I did it.
Depending on your needs you can either make the web service available on farm level by using the ISAPI folder or on web application level by using your web application folder.
Web application level: Create a new folder under the root of your web application and copy your asmx file to this location.
If your webservice listens to SOAP requests then you need to enable that by adding the <add name="httpSoap" /> entry.

Q: Too many initializer value eror I am just a beginner in coding. I know the basics of c++ and c#. I was making a dll injector. I also followed a tutorial for a part. One part of the thing I have from the tutorial has an error and it is "Too many initializer values". I don't know what that means and why it is there. The error is at the nullptr in the next line
void* allocated_memory(h_process, nullptr, MAX_PATH, MEM_RESERVE | MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE);
It is at the first nullptr. If I remove that nullptr then I get the error at the MAX_PATH
biggest part of code:
#include <iostream>
#include <Windows.h>
#include <string>
#include <thread>
#include <libloaderapi.h>

void get_id(const char* windows_title, DWORD &process_id)
{
    GetWindowThreadProcessId(FindWindow(NULL, windows_title), &process_id);
}

void error(const char* error_title, const char* error_message)
{
    MessageBox(NULL, error_message, error_title, NULL);
    exit(-1);
}

bool file_exists(std::string file_name)
{
    struct stat buffer;
    return (stat(file_name.c_str(), &buffer) == 0);
}

int main()
{
    DWORD proc_id = NULL;
    char dll_path(MAX_PATH);
    const char* dll_name = "PW";
    const char* window_title = "Pixel Worlds";

    if (!file_exists(dll_name))
    {
        error("file_exists", "Something went wrong");
    }
    HANDLE h_process = OpenProcess(PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS, NULL, proc_id);
    void* allocated_memory(h_process, nullptr, MAX_PATH, MEM_RESERVE | MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE);
    HANDLE h_thread = CreateRemoteThread(h_process, nullptr, NULL, LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE(LoadLibraryA), allocated_memory, NULL, nullptr);

    CloseHandle(h_process);
    VirtualFreeEx(h_process, allocated_memory, NULL, MEM_RELEASE);
    MessageBox(NULL, "Successfully injected", "Success", NULL);
}

A: You appear to be trying to use the VirtualAllocEx WinAPI routine but you have not named that function in your attempted call, which is just incorrect syntax.
In place of the line:
void* allocated_memory(h_process, nullptr, MAX_PATH, MEM_RESERVE | MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE);

you need to declare your void* pointer and allocate the memory it points to with a call like the following:
void* allocated_memory = VirtualAllocEx(h_process, nullptr, MAX_PATH, MEM_RESERVE | MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE);

Asian American groups to Elaine Chao: Stand with us or resign (Northwest Asian weekly)
NORTHWEST ASIAN WEEKLY
Elaine Chao (center, left) and President Donald Trump.
A coalition of Asian American service and advocacy organizations want Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao to start supporting people of color, or resign.
In an Aug. 17 news release titled, "Secretary Elaine Chao: Stand with Our Immigrant Communities or Resign," the groups called on Chao, an immigrant from Taiwan and woman of color, "to be silent no more."
The letter was signed by the National Korean American Service and Education Consortium (NAKASEC), Korean Resource Center, HANA Center, Asian Americans United, Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance (APALA), AFL-CIO, Jenny Kim, National President of Korean American Coalition, MinKwon Center for Community Action, National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum (NAPAWF), and Southeast Asia Resource Action Center (SEARAC).
The release also said, "On August 15, 2017, the anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), Secretary Elaine Chao stood by President Trump as he blamed both sides for the racist acts that took place in Charlottesville, essentially equating white nationalist hate groups with anti-racist protestors.
The groups also said Chao should make a public statement supporting fellow immigrants who rely on DACA and TPS (Temporary Protected Status).
"Immigrants in 2017 should receive the same opportunities and racial justice as Asian American immigrant Elaine Chao was afforded when she came to America," the release said.

Joel Neves, assistant professor in the Department of Visual and Performing Arts, was awarded 3rd place in The American Prize in Conducting – College/University Orchestra Division. The submission included videos of him conducting the Keweenaw Symphony Orchestra in Brahms, Debussy, Rimsky-Korsakov, and Shostakovich.
The American Prize is an annual national music competition for American musicians and musical organizations, ranging from opera companies to choirs to bands to composers to conductors. Joel's division includes conductors of college and college-community orchestras.
Winning this prize is merely a side effect of all the passion Neves puts into his work. "I love music, it's in my DNA and I love people. Being able to work with people to make music is a glorious calling. I go home happy," said Neves. He has been conducting for 13 years now and has taken KSO to many new places during his career at MTU.

Additionally, the respondent nominated scene I-2 with Helen, John and Nanny to be considered for the Region III festival. ("Rose and the Rime," which was presented by the Department of Visual and Performing Arts last February, is also under consideration.) Results will be announced after the first weekend in December.
The respondent also noted the strength of the production in technical direction (Josh Maiville) and in the system sound design (Jason Pew). The stage managers were recognized in the response.
"Baby with the Bathwater" is directed by Associate Professor Patricia Helsel, with set and costume design by Professor M. C. Friedrich (VPA).
The show plays today and tomorrow and contains adult language and situations.
"The Keweenaw Symphony Orchestra presents a free Fall Music Recital. This recital's theme—Fantasies and Fairy Tales—invites beautiful and compelling vocal and instrumental music, including performances of Canadian fiddle, opera arias and art songs, woodwind quartet, string quartet, piano solo, and flute solo.

The Vatican Museums (Musei Vaticani) are a group of Rome palaces which contain some of the most important, historic collections in the world. There are several major exhibitions at Rome's Vatican Museums (Musei Vaticani), which include the Etruscan Museum, Raphael Rooms and Loggias, the Egyptian Museum and the world-famous Sistine Chapel, which is probably the most important part of this vast museum complex.
Other attractions at Rome's Vatican Museums (Musei Vaticani) include Raphael's Rooms (Stanze di Raffaello) - several rooms of the Vatican apartment that were painted by Raphael at the request of Pope Julius II. The Vatican Museums are part of Rome's Vatican Palace, the official Rome residence of the Pope. Containing painted ceilings, chapels, an around 1,400 rooms and many distinguished art galleries, the Vatican Museums house approximately 5 miles / 8 km of exhibits.


Gratitude goes beyond the "mine" and "thine" and claims the truth that all of life is a pure gift. In the past I always thought of gratitude as a spontaneous response to the awareness of gifts received, but now I realize that gratitude can also be lived as a discipline. The discipline of gratitude is the explicit effort to acknowledge that all I am and have is given to me as a gift of love, a gift to be celebrated with joy.

Q: How to create a VPN tunnel to ssh into one server from another server via a local VPN/proxy? I have a problem that for 4 days no one has been able to solve. The problem might be on the datacenter side.
The problem is that one server can't talk to the other server. I even got technical support from two software providers involved to look at my server, and they can't find any misconfiguration either.
But both servers can be accessed via SSH from my home network. So how could I create a VPN tunnel from my home network (easily) so that it does this:
Server2 --> Home PC IP --> Server1

Or vice versa, so that my home IP from which SSH works find acts as a sort of proxy, to bypass any kind of NAT block or whatever could be blocking the connection?
The thing is that this second server is only temporary anyway, so doing something like this could solve my issue, even if the core issue isn't solved. I just need to get a huge amount of data directly from one server to the other.
How can I set up such a tunnel to bypass the problem?

A: You would need to open a SSH session from home to Server1, telling it to forward remote port 2222 to local port 2222:
ssh -Nt -g -4 -R *:2222:localhost:2222 server1.public.net # 1

This opens a listening port on Server1's port 2222. So, if you were to run "ssh 127.0.0.5 -p 2222" while on Server1, you would actually connect to whatever is running on your home machine on port 2222.
For now, nothing is running on that port.
You leave the first tunnel running, and run a different command against Server2:
ssh -Nt -g -4 -L 2222:localhost:22 server2.public.net # 2

This means that whoever connects to port 2222 on your home machine will now really be connected to local port 22 on server2.
Once these two processes are running, if you connect to Server1 you'll find a listening port 2222. Connect to that port while on Server1, and it will be Server2 that will answer.
So, to copy a file from "/tmp" in server1 to "/var/tmp" in server2 while on server1, you'd go
 scp -P 2222 /tmp/myfile user@127.0.0.5:/var/tmp

The connection will be pretty slow and could be optimized, but this way things are kept simpler.
The reason I'm using 127.0.0.5 instead of 127.0.0.5 is that your server is likely to already have a key for itself, under the heading "127.0.0.1", and SSH will complain if it detects a key mismatch (because on port 2222 the server answering is server2, not server1).
Upon the first connection, you'll receive a warning that server 127.0.0.5 on port 2222 is unknown and if you want to store its key in known hosts. Accept. That is the key of server2.
To be on the safe side, once you need it no longer, in your user's home directory you'll find a file ~/.ssh/known_hosts and, inside, several lines, the last of which will probably be
server2.whatever,127.0.0.5 ssh-rsa AAAAB3...

(the "127.0.0.5" is the important part that identifies the line you want). Delete that line. My systems never got confused between 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.0.5, but why risk.
However
...next time, one server can't talk to the other server is not a very helpful description. You know what it's going on, but you aren't communicating it clearly. Any of these might be happening:

*

*server1 cannot ping server2 (firewall, routing, IP conflict)

*server1 cannot connect w/ server2 (firewall, DNS problems)

*server1 connects but hangs (cipher mismatch? use ssh -vvvv)

*server1 connects but gets refused (bad key, user prohibited from logging in using plaintext password, sshrc misconfiguration...)

*server1 connects but connection freezes very soon (MTU mismatch?)

*and surely others I haven't experienced yet

Fix the economy before introducing mandatory Covid-19 vaccination-CDEDI tells Chakwera
NAMIWA: CDEDI is urging government to take a human rights approach when thinking about mandatory Covid-19 vaccination
The Centre for Democracy and Economic Development Initiatives (CDEDI) has cautioned the Tonse Alliance administration against introducing mandatory Covid-19 vaccination before addressing the social and economic hardships Malawians have been forced to bear due to rising cost of living.
CDEDI Executive Director Sylvester Namiwa, in a statement issued on Monday, warns that the proposed policy on Covid-19 vaccination will face resistance from citizens who are weighed down by rising cost of living.
"It is important to highlight right at the onset that it is human nature to fight bad laws, therefore, Government should tread carefully in its bid to roll out the mandatory Covid-19 vaccination campaign at a time when Malawians are in need of an economic recovery plan, which is complete with measures to cushion marginalised and vulnerable people in our society. If the story carried in Nation on Sunday newspaper of 5th December 2021 is anything to go by, CDEDI fears for the worse that Attorney General Thabo Chakaka Nyirenda has nodded to government's wish to take the Covid-19 mandatory vaccination path," reads the statement in part.
The proposal to introduce mandatory Covid-19 vaccination policy comes barely three months after CDEDI, on September 9, 2021, wrote the Office of the Attorney General, seeking government's position on mandatory Covid-19 vaccination campaign.
At the time, the human rights watchdog observed that mandatory Covid-19 vaccination was implemented by some private institutions, including both local and international organisations, and some government institutions.
However, despite formally writing back to CDEDI on September 10, 2021, to acknowledge receipt of the letter, CDEDI has not received any response from the AG regarding Malawi Government's position on Covid-19 mandatory vaccination.
In his acknowledgement, Nyirenda assured that the letter was receiving the necessary attention, and that he would write again to give a concrete response on the matter after making what he termed as "necessary consultations" with relevant authorities directly involved in the matter.
As a reminder, CDEDI wrote the AG seeking Malawi Government's position on the silent policy of 'NO VACCINE NO WORK' being implemented by some public and private institutions in the country. Earlier, CDEDI wrote the Minister of Health on the same, but never got a response.
Namiwa says his organization believes that citizens have a right to choose whether or not to be vaccinated.
"So while some citizens can freely choose life and go for the vaccine others can also choose life by deciding not to take the jab. It should not be a compulsory affair. Therefore, government needs to tread carefully on this matter to avoid trampling on the right to privacy, religion and conscious of the citizens. CDEDI is challenging President Chakwera to strive all the time to run an open, transparent and accountable government by commissioning a study similar to that done by the University of Malawis Centre for Social Research, that should provide scientific evidence that the jab is effective," says the CDEDI boss in the statement.
He says while CDEDI appreciates the severity of the Covid-19 pandemic and efforts government is making to combat it, it has noted with concern that government has turned a blind eye on other killer diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis, HIV and Aids, hypertension, diabetes, malnutrition and dehumanizing poverty.
"It is against this background that CDEDI is urging government to take a human rights approach when thinking about mandatory Covid-19 vaccination. Such emotive measures should be taken alongside tangible measures to recover the economy and cushion the poor to avoid a situation where those who will have been saved from the pandemic die needlessly due to unprecedented essential drug stock outs in our public health facilities, coupled with starvation and hunger due to the tough economic situation on the ground.
"Last but not the least, CDEDI urges government not to divert people's attention from their cries for better living conditions brought by its poor economic policies by delving into emotive human rights issues such as mandatory vaccination," concludes Namiwa.

We are very excited about our guest blogger today. Talk about Solutions in Action! Lee Wind has created two cyber-niches for himself, both of which are great examples of karmic marketing and helping others. We're excited to have him stop by today and talk about his newest venture, a blog on. . .blogging-- The Zen of Blogging, to be exact.
Seriously, with more and more authors being told to blog, and more and more blogs popping up like toadstools after a rain, some blogging advice is sorely needed. A touch of Zen? Even better. Whether you are struggling with trying to decide whether or not to start your own blog, or not sure what to do with the one you've got, we think you'll find some helpful information here!
Can you give us a sneak preview of some of the things you'll be talking about on your new Zen of Blogging blog?
How to do specific things with your blog, tips, exercises, inspirations, great things other people are doing with blogging and social media that I want to share - it will be a mix of fabulous stuff. And all of it will have the goal of empowering every blogger out there to realize that they don't have to stress out about their blog. You can blog. And it can be fun. Manageable. And yes, even "Zen."
You have another hugely successful blog, "I'm Here. I'm Queer. What the Hell do I Read?" that was voted Best GLBT Book Review Blog, BBAW 2009. How long did it take you to develop that blog into its present award winning state? What surprises or pitfalls did you run into?
When I started "I'm Here. I'm Queer. What the Hell do I Read?" I had very little traffic. I think that first week I had 5 posts and maybe 20 visitors. But I worked at it steadily, and it built momentum and a following. I guess the "secret" was that I treated it like a professional. I showed up every day, was consistent, and offered unique content in an area where no one else was offering what I was. There was no other safe space online to find out what teen books are out there with GLBTQ Teen characters and themes. Now there is - my blog - and beyond that, I've been able to do so much more covering not just GLBTQ teen literature, but also culture and politics - and it's all been around the theme of empowering my readers, gay and straight.
So what made you decide to launch another blog, one on blogging?
I didn't set out to do a second blog. In fact, I resisted it for quite a while. Here's what happened: After more than 2 years of blogging 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year at my main blog (and having some nice success with it in terms of awards and traffic, with over a quarter of a million page loads and more than 160,000 unique visitors there) I felt that I had learned a lot about blogging. There's so much information and noise out there about social media that I think it's easy to get lost and overwhelmed. So last year I set out to write a simple guide to blogging - one that didn't focus on the technical stuff or on the noise, but rather on the 7 basic principles that can make any blog more focused and successful. I called the resulting e-book "The Zen Of Blogging."
I was so excited to put it out there and actually be selling something I wrote. And I think it's streamlined and simple and really useful. I got some wonderful early reviews, and built the website myself. I launched it on my birthday of this year, January 11, 2010.
My husband (who is one smart cookie) kept asking me, "but Lee, how are you going to promote it?" and I assured him that I had a plan.
This was my plan: I had all these listserves I was on. And all those friends on facebook. And my email lists. And twitter followers. I would tell the world! And I did. I did all of it. In one day. And there was some traffic. And then, the next day, I realized that I couldn't blog about it again on my main blog. I couldn't bother people with a second email. I couldn't talk about my book any more on Facebook, or twitter, or anywhere else without looking completely self- absorbed and trying to hard-sell everyone I knew. How many tweets from another author about THEIR book would I want to endure?
With social media, you want to be part of a conversation, not dominate it. Just like in real life - I don't want to hang out with someone who I feel is only trying to sell me something. I didn't want to turn people away.
tanked again. And Shelli is really prolific - the video post was quickly eclipsed by newer material. So what would be the permanent on- line home for that video and all the ones to follow?
1. It would give me an on-line home to talk about blogging, and to share how-to-tips, information, and inspiration (and my video blogs!) While I learned much of this from my main blog, visitors to that site aren't there to discuss blogging, they're there for the content: GLBTQ Teen Literature, Culture and Politics. The Zen Of Blogging Blog lets me focus on blogging for an audience there for just that.
2. I've spent a lot of time and energy with my main blog gaining credibility and expertise in the world of GLBTQ Teen Literature. In addition to being a project aimed at empowering Teens, it has positioned me as someone with a platform. When one of my books gets published with a traditional publisher, I have an audience already interested in what I have to say.
A blog on blogging would similarly engage people interested in blogging and help build an audience for the e-book I already have for sale. Not to hard-sell anyone, but if someone likes what I've blogged, maybe they'll be interested in checking out what I've written in the e-book as well.
3. A blog on blogging, as it builds my credibility and expertise, would be synergistic with my ongoing blogging workshops and consulting work.
Those three reasons were compelling - and once I articulated them, it was an easy decision to start blogging.
What would you tell people who are wavering on whether or not to blog?
Go for it. Blogging doesn't have to be intimidating. I decided for my new blog that I didn't really have a ton of time to devote to it, and I didn't want it to stress me out. I mean, I already have a blog where I've committed to producing 5 posts a week! So for this new blog, I'm going to do one post a week. If I have time, I'll do the next week's post in advance, and pre-publish it (a great trick-of-the- trade to know!) 4 blog posts a month is something I know I can handle, and it won't make me crazy.
What do you find people's three greatest fears are about blogging? How would you counter those fears?
1. If I start a blog, no one will read it.
2. I don't know enough to do a blog perfectly.
3. What will I write about?
1. If you start a blog and only talk about what you had for lunch, you're right, probably no one besides your mother and your spouse will find it interesting. (And then, only because they know and love you.) You need to blog about what you are passionate about. Then your audience grows to include everyone who shares your passion.
3. What will you write about? Imagine the audiences for your books and the audiences for your blog as overlapping. If you've got something to say in your books, you've got something to say in your blog.
What made you decide to go with a vlog format rather than a written format? Or will your blog include both?
I like short (under 1 minute) videos, and I have a lot of fun doing them. Having said that, many of the post will be purely words on the screen, with an image or two. And I'm not sure about a vlog blog having limited traffic - it will be interesting to look at the vlog days and the more text-oriented days and compare the traffic and comments. I'll let you know.
I think authors need to create not just "a" blog but "YOUR" blog. Something that's individual and uniquely yours. Just like the books you write couldn't have been written in the same way by anyone else, your blog should be a unique expression of your voice. I can be a guide, with my blog, my e-book, and even my one-on-one consulting, and I can help a blogger find the answers. But even then I can't walk the path for you, any more than I could write your books for you. Ultimately, we each have to find our own path to the Zen of Blogging.
Wow, thank you so much, Lee, for this great perspective on blogging and how it fits into our professional and personal lives!
And now, the winner of last week's drawing (brought to you by Random Number Generator) is number 15--Carrie Harris! Carrie, email me and I'll get your bundle of books out to you. Thanks to everyone for chiming in. It was great to catch up with you all!
Great interview -- thanks Lee and Robin!
Lee, this is such a fabulous concept! Thanks so much for this grand interview- especially for your frankness and honestly. I loved your vlog and I will look forward to more of it. Wishing you much, much success!
Great interview. I'm thinking about starting a blog and the info was so helpful.
Lee—what a great interview. I have learned so much from your regular blog, and I am looking forward to all the goodies on this new one. Congratulations!
I like this place, thanks for featuring Lee. His newest blog has been so helpful for me and he's only two posts in. Lee's other blog, well, that place is a freakin sanctuary.
So happy to learn that everyone is enjoying what Lee had to say as much as we did!
Lee is wonderfully insightful! He was very helpful to me and his guide really forced me to think about blogging before I stuck my big toe into blogging waters, and jumped in.
No. Way. Not only do I get a fabulous interview from Lee, who is as intelligent as he is charming (and I should know, because we did a Cybils committee together), but I also win books? Oh, happy day!
I loved this interview - very interesting and helpful!
Great interview. I'm anxious to see Lee's new blog, as I've enjoyed I'M HERE, I'M QUEER a great deal. No doubt about it, Lee's an expert blogger and I know I can learn a lot from him - I already have!
Thanks so much for this grand interview- especially for your frankness and honestly. I loved your vlog and I will look forward to more of it. Wishing you much, much success!
This post/interview provides helpful advice about how to start a blog and keep going. An interesting dynamic is to diversify the blog into other media like a vlog. Thanks.

EXCLUSIVE: Labor backs Bill
October 20, 2021 Martine Haley
THE Tasmanian Labor Party is preparing to backflip in its opposition to the Government's workplace protest law.
The new position will mean the Bill, which the Government has tried to get passed by Parliament several times since 2014, will finally become law.
The Derwent Valley Gazette understands Labor's new position, to be revealed in coming weeks, is the result of pressure to realign the party with its traditional grass roots supporters, which it could be argued will be beneficiaries of the protest laws.
Given an opportunity to either confirm or deny the Labor Party would support the workplace protest legislation, ALP workplace relations spokesperson Sarah Lovell was cautious.
"We are yet to see the final Bill but it is clear that Resources Minister and Lyons MP Guy Barnett is more interested in the politics of this issue than actually protecting workers."
Ms Lovell did not answer the direct questions.
According to Mr Barnett, the Bill will protect Tasmanian businesses, workers and families from illegal threats, disruption and ongoing disruption from "extremist''protesters.
"This Bill won't stop legal protests outside hospitals, schools or climate change protests in streets or on footpaths,'' Mr Barnett said.
"The Tasmanian Government makes no apology for trying to ensure Tasmanians can go to work and run their businesses in a safe manner free from threats and disruption.
"Tasmanians have had enough of radical extremists invading workplaces and threatening and endangering staff.
"Our Workplace Protection Bill will complement legislation already passed in the Federal Parliament where it received bi-partisan support.
"Labor governments and oppositions across the country have supported similar legislation and it is time that the Tasmanian Labor Opposition finally threw its support behind Tasmanian workers rather than standing side-by-side with the Greens and the Bob Brown Foundation.''
Mr Barnett said the Bill was not about stopping Tasmanians from protesting.
"The Government respects the right of every Tasmanian to express their views and protest lawfully,'' he said.
"We have listened to industry and workers which is why we will bring our Workplace Protection Bill legislation back before the House in coming weeks.
"If Labor really wants a fresh start then it's time to support this Bill and send a clear message that workplace invasions and disruptions have no place in this state.''
Previous Bills have included fines and jail for illegal protests.

Q: How to retrieve limit no of fields from mongodb easily if I have 100s of fields in the collection? I have a sample collection below,
samplecol:
{
key1: 'value1',
key2: 'value2',
key3: 'value3',
key4: 'value4',
key5: 'value5',
key6: 'value6',
key7: 'value7',
key8: 'value8',
key9: 'value9',
key10: 'value10',
key11: 'value11',
key12: 'value12',
key13: 'value13',
key14: 'value14',
}

I want to retrieve only 'value14', for that I can write a query like
db.samplecol.find(
    {},
    {key1: 0, key2: 0, key3: 0, key4: 0, key5: 0, key6: 0, key7: 0, key8: 0, key9: 0, key10:0, key11: 0, key12: 0, key13: 0, key14:1}
);

To retrieve only key14 , i have to make every other keys as 0, if it is 10 or 20 I can manage to write what should i do if I have 100s of fields.
Is there any easiest way to do like
db.samplecol.find({}, {key14: only})  ?

A: It simple will be as following:
db.samplecol.find({}, {key14: 1})

In that case only key14 will be fetched.
Here is a useful tutorial about Projection on mongodb site: https://docs.mongodb.com/v3.2/tutorial/project-fields-from-query-results/#return-the-specified-fields-and-the-id-field-only


Amazing hostel in an absolutely central location. Great breakfast, comfy beds and charming staff. Probably the best hostel I've ever stayed in.
Such incredibly helpful and friendly staff! The dorms are quite roomy and comfortable. If I'm ever back in Taipei, I'll definitely be staying here again.
Excellent Hostel, will stay again ever back in Taipei.
This place is amazing!! Nice staff with adequate knowledge of fun things to do in Taipei. So much social activities and I joined the bubble tea making class!. I personally want to thank one of the staff who recommended me to bike along the riverside. It's definitely awesome. Just drop by at Yuanshan Station and take a bike from there. A-must-try & a-must-to-comeback hostel. Good job!!
Absolutely outstanding, very possibly the best hostel ever. Exceptionally clean common areas and rooms, delicious fresh breakfast that changes every day, lovely and very helpful staff, great location and fantastic WiFi even in the rooms, not just common areas. Would stay here again without hesitation.
This place is amazing! One of the best hostels I have ever stayed in with friendly staff and clean rooms. Also, whether or not you need to do laundry, you should check out the 6F laundry room because the patio is really cool.
One of the best hostels I have stayed in. The lounge area was amazing! Location was good being about 5 minutes walk from the main station, showers were great too! Would suggest maybe having activities more often to engage the guest.
Location is great just a few minutes walk from Taipei main station. It feels like a hotel more than a hostel ,one floor is for the rooms the other a bar/lunch/relaxtion area. At arrival I greeted by Lily and Lilu; they are probably the friendliest receptionist girls in Taipei. The whole hostel is spot clean, the rooms are good size as well. I really enjoyed the stay , the hostel is highly recommended , I think the best hostel in Taipei!
Very nice and super clean. Easy to get to from the airport! I did find it hard to meet people and wasn't given info/maps when I arrived.
