Fil's Songs and Stories
The Music, Makes and Musings of Irish folk singer/songwriter Fil Campbell on the road and at home
Thank you all for understanding my need to rant the other day - and apologies for the bits of print that I'd copied in from Wikepedia and didn't spot the formatting - I wasn't intending to shout parts of it lol
In the midst of all the annoyance and chaos, as Aril pointed out, hasn't it been a joy to watch young Greta Thunberg making her quiet potent statements. It will be interesting following her progress. She is the positive we all need.
The bluebells have been really early here
I spotted this lovely ladybird late last week in the garden.
And on the positive note here, Tom got released from hospital today just in time for us to head off on tour on Saturday, storm permitting.

Lyra McKee
This world is a mess - and for a long time I've been struggling to write blogs because all I've wanted to write is political comment and at the same time I've wanted to keep this space a positive and bright one. But I have to pay tribute to a young woman who was murdered on Thursday night.
Many of you will have seen the news from Northern Ireland in the past few days of the terrible killing of the young journalist Lyra (pronounced Leera) McKee in Derry on Thursday night. Here we are back in the news, but for all the wrong reasons, again.
I cannot describe the feelings of anger and sorrow and fear that is permeating this land. Apart from the sadness at the loss of this young life, a voice for the future, there is a sorrow for all of us. We Cannot Go Back to this. People are so angry, so afraid - I just want to cry every time I think of it.
Lyra...
was a freelance journalist and an outspoken advocate of LGBT rights for which she gave a TedX talk in Stormont a few years back. She had a publishing contract for two books which she was in the process of completing about life here and she was ruthless in her investigations and criticisms.
This is a wonderful tribute to her from the Independent newspaper
The thugs need little or no excuse to start things up again. But all over the country posters are up saying NOT IN MY NAME - most certainly Not In My Name! Perhaps some good will come of Lyra's death and maybe, just maybe, it will be catalyst to get our power sharing government back up again.
The police were expecting violence as a run up to the Easter Rising Commemorations and right on cue a riot started, petrol bombs were thrown and a few shots of a handgun finished a young life. Yesterday, Easter Sunday, is a day of celebration in the South of Ireland - it marks the day that the 1916 Rising happened which led to the Republic of Ireland being formed.
But of course, up here in the north, that means division. Any celebration means division up here. There are many who want to be part of that Republic, and there are many who see it as an abomination, an excuse to cause trouble. And in the middle there are many, like myself, who while considering ourselves Irish, want to keep our heads down, fly no flags, be content in the status quo and get on with our own lives.
Up in the North West, in Derry/Londonderry they've always had a hard time and are rightfully worried about a resurgence of violence. They are on the border with Co. Donegal which is in the south. And the border issue around Brexit is adding fuel to the worries.
Which is it you may ask? Derry or Londonderry? Well, It's actually both.
When I worked for the BBC it was compulsory to say Londonderry first, then Derry second and after that it was up to you. Thanks to a much missed radio DJ called Gerry Anderson it became known as Stroke City (get it? Londonderry Stroke/ Derry!)
Derry is the anglicised version of the old Irish name Daire, or the modernised version Doire, which means oak grove. The London prefix was added to Derry when the city was granted a Royal Charter by King James I in 1613 during the Plantation of Ulster. To the majority of people born on this island, Catholic or Protestant, it will always be Derry. But legally it is Londonderry. However to confuse issues further, the local council is Derry! Let's opt for Stroke City!)
Then on Sunday I managed not to watch the news until late in the evening and saw the terrible tragedy unfolding in Sri Lanka. That knot of fear and stress that we lived with for so long was back. It only takes a moment for some thoughtless idiot, wanting to go down in history for some heroic deed as he/she sees it, to shatter hundreds of lives.
What an Easter. And to top it all, Tom's been in hospital all through it! Hopefully he'll escape soon.
Normal service will be resumed asap.

Exceptional Brilliance - Lamborghini Huracan LP 610 4
Published On Sep 16, 2014 11:22 AM By Prithvi
Italians are known to be brilliant craftsmen and there is no doubt that Automobili Lamborghini is synonymous to this claim. Till date they have produced some of the most sophisticated performance oriented sport cars famous of which today we know as the Aventador. Thus bridging the gap between the Aventador and the outgoing Gallardo is the Indian launch of Lamborghini Huracan on the 22nd of September 2014.
In our previous feature titled "Lamborghini Huracan LP 610 – 4: Replaces Gallardo", we had spoken about how it is one of the most powerful sports cars to have replaced Lamborghini's till date highly successful model, the 'Gallardo' to become technologically advanced and highly potent in the way it would perform on road.
Showcased during this year's Geneva Motorshow, the turnaround for this raging bull has been fast and thick by Lamborghini. In fact with straight reference to "Instinct of the Future", the Huracan features sharp aerodynamic lines that speak a lot about its exterior design. Therefore the front end is a culmination of full LED headlamps that provide it a striking look with a sloping hood bearing sharp lines indicative to the design element. Sizeable air dams incorporated within the front bumper further accentuate its appeal not just in the way it looks but also from a functionality point of view that relates to its aerodynamics. Sideways, the first thing you will notice is its bulged front wheel arch followed by a chiselled side view mirror which is typical Lamborghini style and so is the carved out skirting and a less prominent rear wheel arch. If this wasn't enough, there are 20 inch alloys that further add substance to its side profile. Coming to the rear, similar to the front headlamps the rear tail lights too feature LED's which are attractive to the naked eye. The glass housing is yet another element that not only looks radical but also provides a glimpse of the power plant which has taken countless hours to produce. This feature seems to have been inspired from its elder sibling the Aventador. A Pair of twin exhaust pipes along with a rear diffuser helps complete the look.
If you think that the exterior is attractive then wait till you see what awaits you in the form of its cabin. True craftsmanship is visible in the manner in which the interiors of the Huracan have been designed. A fully hand stitched dashboard with steering wheel and seats exhibits top quality materials being used to provide sporty interiors in line with the overall appeal of this machine. The 12.3 inch TFT display is a medium for all important information concerning the vehicle. Its centre console offers an array of buttons ranging from air-conditioning to the all important push start thereby being a centre point for most activities. Due to their exclusivity, Lamborghini further provides trim options wherein a customer can himself choose the fabric that they want along with the type of stitching and other material first hand so that when the vehicle is delivered it is actually to their liking.
Made from a mix aluminium and carbon fibre, the Huracan features a hybrid chassis. In a nutshell, what it contributes towards it is superb handling characteristics well supported via the dry weight of 1422 kilograms that makes the Huracan more than agile to take on any competition that comes its way. Thus this mid-engine sports car features the famous 5.2 litre naturally aspirated V10 engine which has been incorporated from the outgoing Gallardo thereby churning 600 horses with 560 Nm of peak torque. High on performance, this particular Lamborghini is more powerful and fuel efficient courtesy the direct and indirect fuel injection system on board. Further its technologically advanced "Lamborghini Doppia Frizione" code name for 7 Speed Dual Clutch Transmission featuring an all wheel drive system with a new hydraulic multi-plate clutch helps keep all four wheels in control at all times despite its ruthless power that is available on just a tap of the foot. Lamborghini's dynamic steering caters to a number of functions by a mere switch of a button allowing the user to choose from a road to a racetrack driving experience depending upon a specific requirement.
With a power to weight ratio of mere 2.33 kilograms per bhp, the Huracan boosts of sheer performance as it can accelerate from a 0 -100 kmph in just 3.2 seconds and has a top speed of 325 kmph. On the whole, Lamborghini Huracan LP 610 – 4 is all worth its due not just because it is a raging bull but due to the fact that incorporates the best in technology in design and performance. Looks, feel and experience can only explain its "Exceptional Brilliance" which is the Huracan in this place.

Development of Multifunctional Advanced Composites with Polymer Nanocomposite Matrices for Damage Sensing Applications

University of Perugia, Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, Terni, Italy
In recent years, nanotechnology has given the importance chance of tailoring properties of a material, depending on its final application. In fact, the ability on handling materials at nanoscale level can lead to advancements which were unthinkable just two decades ago. Among the nano-scaled particles that are commonly included in plastics for enhancing their properties, carbon nanotubes and nanofibers have a particular role, because of their electrically active behaviour, which is very interesting when it is necessary to modify the electrical conductivity of a plastic material: for this reason, they can be considered as intrinsically multifunctional nanoparticles.
Thermosetting matrices are commonly employed as matrices for fiber reinforced polymers. Polymer-based fiber reinforced composite materials are widely used in applications in which they have a structural role, in many different sectors such as aerospace, automotive and machinery in general, as well as in civil engineering. In these cases, it is very important to have the chance of detecting the presence of strain accumulation and the presence of any damages, which can worsen the mechanical resistance of the composite itself.
Since design and functionality requirements of engineering structures such as spacecraft, aircraft, vessels, buildings, dams, bridges and vehicles is becoming more multifaceted, structural health monitoring and damage evaluation is becoming more critical. Researchers have demonstrated that no single technique used on its own provides reliable results on this topic. Among traditional non-destructive inspection methods to evaluate structural integrity, real-time structural health monitoring systems represent a key technology to ensure the reliability of a fiber reinforced composite structure.
The use of techniques that exploit electrical properties of the composite to monitor damages has been recognized as a non-invasive way in carbon fiber reinforced plastic, since the good electrical conductivity of carbon fibers themselves. In fact, in this case, fracture of fiber results in a strong increase of electrical resistance. Nonetheless, this approach does not consider the fractures involving the matrix and the fiber-matrix interface, so it can give just a partial view of what could happen inside the composite during a mechanical solicitation. Moreover, it can not be employed with non-conducting fibers, e.g. glass or aramid. For this reason, some researchers has begun to investigate the possibility of the employment of electrically modified polymeric matrices.
In this study, both unsaturated polyester and an epoxy resins were doped with carbon-based electrically conductive nanoparticles, such as carbon nanofibers and nanotubes, in order to obtain a matrix with enhanced electrical conductivity for the production of a glass fiber reinforced composite. In the case of the polyester resin, the calendering technique was employed for the dispersion of the nanoparticles in the
matrix. The benefits of the calendering process are strictly related to the fact that it is already an industrial process, although in different applications, and so it can be considered an easily up-scalable technique. A common mechanical stirring was employed for the mixture epoxy-CNTs.
Glass fiber reinforced composites produced by liquid molding processes, were studied by mechanical and electrical tests. In particular, for the polyester-based composite a flexural load was exerted at the same time as electrical resistance was measured, in order to verify whether any change in resistance is related to the mechanical stress. On the other hand, the possibility on monitoring the presence of a damage for the epoxy-CNT-matrix composite was focused on impact damages.
This study has demonstrated how just a very low content of high aspect ratio carbon nanoparticles leads to a completely different electrical behaviour of the matrix and to the final glass fiber composite. Therefore, carbon nanotubes and nanofibers, when employed in glass fiber composites, can be considered a very interesting tool for strain and damage sensing.

New Developments in the Field of Nanostructured 3D Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering
A. R. Boccaccini
Institute of Biomaterials, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany
Tissue engineering aims to restore function to diseased or damaged tissue using combinations of functional cells and biodegradable highly porous scaffolds made from engineered biomaterials. The main function of a tissue engineering scaffold is to act as substrate for cell attachment and proliferation and subsequent tissue growth. In this presentation current research in the area of advanced scaffolds for bone tissue engineering which are based on composite bioactive nanostructured materials will be discussed. Particular systems of interest are a new generation scaffolds based on nanostructured porous composite materials fabricated from combinations of biodegradable polymers and bioactive inorganic fillers and coatings, e.g. bioactive glass, TiO2 nanoparticles or carbon nanotubes. For applications in bone tissue engineering Bioglass® based glass-ceramic scaffolds are favoured. The scaffold microstructure comprises a highly porous network (> 90% porosity) and densified struts exhibiting also the presence of nanoscale crystals (e.g. Na2Ca2Si3O9), which lead to improved compressive strength of the foam structure. The coating of the foam struts with a thin biodegradable polymer layer containing functionalised carbon nanotubes, biodegradable polymer nanofibres (by electrospinning) or nanoscale bioactive glass particles increases the mechanical competence of scaffolds and induces the formation of a nanostructured hydroxyapatite layer upon immersion in simulated body fluid. This layer promotes the adhesion of newly formed bone tissue on the scaffold surface. Ideally, these scaffolds should not only be osteoconductive providing a passive structural support for bone cells, but they also should favourably affect bone formation by stimulating osteoblastic cell proliferation and differentiation. Since many trace elements such as Sr, Cu, Zn, V or Co presented in the human body are known for their anabolic effects in bone metabolism, new approaches for enhancing bioactivity of scaffold materials are being investigated by introducing therapeutic ions into the scaffold material. The effect of these ions on the osteogenic and angiogenic properties of the constructs will be presented and discussed.
Recent developments of multifunctional scaffolds containing carbon nanotubes will be also presented, including the description of the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique developed to manipulate and control the deposition of electrically charged nanoscaled particles and other nanostructures on scaffold surfaces. It will be shown that nanostructuring the 3D porous scaffolds has also the benefit of mimicking the structural scale of proteins in the body and as such it promotes the attachment and proliferation of cells, leading to enhanced biological performance of the scaffolds in-vitro and in-vivo.

Is it possible to increase print sales by THAT MUCH? Yes it's possible. In the next 12 months? Absolutely. (We've seen it, and done it.) As signage professionals, printing is obviously one of our flagship products, so if the print business is up, everything else should be on the rise, as well. Remember – we're MESSENGERS on a mission. We help people get more out of life through effective advertising. As you may know, expensive printers bring the cost per square foot of printing down nice and low, but if the total volume of print sales isn't there, sign shop owners can still be left with a deficit, due to payroll costs, and print equipment lease payments.
1. Understand the Value of Media Frames (not just ours) and SELL THEM.
Media Frames are DISPLAY SPACE, and display space is EVERYWHERE!!! Media Frames are strategically designated spaces for advertising messages. The key is to start enlightening all of your customers about the importance of having dynamic changeable message systems that get in front of potential customers.
When it comes time to change that message (in all those media frames) who are they going to come to? You, of course. Why not approach a local mall or school, or medical center, and offer them a nice uniformed messaging plan, that will not only create a visually stimulating environment, but that can also help them develop a lucrative revenue stream. while helping their customers, students, or patients, get connected to valuable products or support services. Offering the display space to vendors or sponsors will do the trick.
I believe it was marketing guru Seth Godin who said "Don't find customers for your products. Find products for your customers." That is a powerful suggestion, but we can take it even a step further in that customers aren't looking for PRODUCTS, they're looking for solutions. It's kind of like the concept that last year, a half million people went out and bought a 1/4″ drill, but NOBODY wanted a 1/4 inch drill. In reality, a half million people wanted a 1/4″ HOLE! They want the solution. As much as I love our media frames, almost nobody outside the trade is out there looking for a "media frame", because they simply aren't aware that there is such a thing,. How many have walked into your business and asked for one? I'm guessing, with the possible exceptions of people who've already bought them, and a few savvy corporate buyers, very few.
But media frames do offer that dynamic solution that allows customers to be flexible and adaptable with their messages, and it allows YOU to build repeat transactions into every sale that you make. The products that sell the most are NOT always the best products. The products that sell the most are the products that are communicated most effectively. So that's the first step. Communicate the benefits of the product to as many prospects and customers as you can. A little more up-front than a throw-away, one-time-use banner or coroplast print? Probably. A whole lot more efficient down the line, and a lot more valuable? Mos' def'! The benefits are numerous: Better appearance – don't blow around in the wind or become tattered or unsightly: Controlled sizes and placement, with the whole backdrop being planned and coordinated instead of just a piecework/patchwork approach. Easy to Change-Out, possibly even DIY; More "City-Friendly" (for reasons stated above). Can be painted to match the decor; Adaptable to fit the available spaces. Permanent, temporary or even portable.
It's really that simple. When people come in or call, and ask for a banner or a yard sign or some common "one-off", let them know the way the industry is going, and tell them why. Tell them that not only have you got a great bargain for them, but you've got a way for them to reach more people, and change their message quickly and affordably, whenever they want. When you Sell More Media Frames, you'll increase print sales, and again, I don't just mean ours. I mean give customers different ways to hold signage that can be taken out, and put back in, and even re-used if it makes sense. Movie Theaters understand! Sports arenas are starting to get it! Catch this wave.
(100) 2′ x 3′ Snap-Cap Frames for retail displays. 600 square feet. And remember, the whole reason they wanted this type of frame was because they WANT to change their messages regularly.
Qty: (8) 30 ft x 40 ft Wallscapes: 9600 sq feet of printing — EVERY TIME they change 'em!
Hospital Job: Wallscapes: 151′ x 7′, 12′ x 20′ , 47′ x 17, 30′ x 20′ – That's 2690 square feet!
12′ x 73′ – For a historic shipyard district's vintage wallscape (see image below, courtesy of Chuck Heide@ VSP Graphics Group) 876 sq ft!
I hope you can see the possibilities. Step 1: Sell more Media Frames in order to sell 10x more digital printing!– Big Money,10X, easily.
I have some personal experience with this one. I owned a company called 1-800-GREAT AD for a period of time, and it was predicated on this concept. We manufactured inflatable advertising (giant balloons) as well as producing events for sales and grand openings involving banners, pennants, sign twirlers, mobile billboards, etc. We put the company name (an easy-to-remember phone #) on everything, and i really believe it's a big part of the reason that our annual sales grew from $300K in our first year to over $4.5 Million just 5 years later! There were numerous stories about calls we received simply by people seeing work that was already in process. Almost ZERO additional cost. Free Advertising! You can print your brand, or imprint it, or label it, or paint it, or use a QR code, or a website, or whatever! Your products are being seen by vast numbers of people. Take advantage of that opportunity. Speak to that audience at every turn.
In business people say. "It's not what you know, it's WHO you know." But in the signage business, It's NOT who you know. It's Who Knows YOU!
We're regularly spotlighting customers, and showcasing their work. Please email us and let us know if you implement these steps, and how they are affecting your sales in the coming year. Send images, as well. That will automatically get you a discount on your next Ackland order, and it will make you eligible to be featured as our "Sign Company of the Month". 10x the print sales. Get after it!

Selena Quintanilla, hailed the Queen of Tejano Music, is known around the world for her songs, fashion, and, unfortunately, her untimely death. Even though her life came to an abrupt and heartbreaking end, her name and legacy live on. Selena continues to have such an impact on pop culture, especially in the Latinx community, that author Deborah Paredez coined the term "Selenidad" to explain how her death unified the Latinx community and provided many with the ability to imagine alternative futures. The Selenidad phenomenon extends farther than the Latinx community, inspiring members of all marginalized communities, especially in the United States. By taking a look at her life, we are reminded why Selena continues to be one of the most impactful artists of her day.
Selena was born in Lake Jackson, Texas, to a family that had lived in Texas for generations. At a young age, she was the lead singer of Selena y Los Dinos, a small band composed of her siblings. The more they performed, the more they rose to fame, with their father managing everything from behind-the-scenes. Although she didn't speak Spanish, Selena learned to sing in Spanish — upon the advice of her father — in order to have success in the Tejano genre. Despite the fact that Tejano music was male-dominated, Selena broke through and created a space for women as lead entertainers in the industry. Using her agency through her on-stage presence, Selena became one of the first role models for Latina women and girls living in the United States.
Soon, Selena became a household name, as her songs rose in popularity. She started performing bigger shows, selling out stadiums, and even won a Grammy award for best Mexican/American album. Through all of this, Selena maintained her identity, always staying true to herself. Despite having phenomenal success, Selena never moved to Hollywood or New York City, instead staying in her hometown community of Lake Jackson. She didn't dye her hair blonde to be more palatable to her white audience. She was "curvy" in an industry that valued thin figures. All of these features allowed her to foster connections with the people of the Latinx community, who finally had someone to celebrate from a hometown like theirs, who looked like them, and who made them feel recognized.
Even though the 24th anniversary of Selena's death just passed, she is almost more popular now than she was in her prime. Netflix is coming out with a new series about the pop star. Hip-Hop artist Cardi B, who often calls herself "Trap Selena," used Selena's clothing as inspiration in her music video "Please Me" with Bruno Mars. Hundreds flock to "Fiesta de la Flor," a 2-day music festival tribute to Selena that started only 5 years ago.
In this day, 24 years later, why do we still love and celebrate Selena Quintanilla? Is it because of her groundbreaking music in a male-dominated industry? Is it because of her authentic representation of a marginalized community in the United States? Is it because of her untimely death, uniting many people from different backgrounds to mourn a single celebrated figure? Whatever the reason may be, it's safe to say that the light of Selena's infamous legacy will not burn out soon.

Previous Post A Film Review of "Us"


When I started writing about wine, I took a seminar with the owner of a winery called How to Taste Like a Sommelier. The first thing that stuck with me was in his opening remarks. He told us that what we liked was more important than many consider great wine.
I always remember that when people ask me what wine they should buy. I won't give any suggestions until I find out what they like. Whether it's red or white, dry or sweet, fruity or peppery, there's a wine out there for everyone.
Once you determine the type of wine you want, the next step is to find one within your budget. We all want to drink good wine, but we don't all want to pay a fortune for it. The trick is to think out of the Napa or Bordeaux box.
It's not that difficult to find good wine at a cheap price if you know which regions make it better for less.
Italy, especially Sicily, is filled with reasonably priced wine, especially reds. Marsala is probably best known for its namesake wine, which has become more popular in the chicken dish than the glass, but it's far from the only thing to drink in the region.
From Marsala to Ragusa to Ragaleali, and through the small Mediterranean island of Pantelleria, delicious and inexpensive red wine comes from Sicilian grapes such as Nero D'Avola, Primitivo and Nerello Mascalese.
Try Donnafugata Sedara (under $15), which is made from Nero D'Avola. It's an easy-drinking red filled with black berries and just a tiny bit of spice.
Bordeaux may be a bit out of your budget, but it's worth exploring the wines of Languedoc-Roussillon, France. This region lies between the Pyrenees Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, and offers some unique, inexpensive wines.
The most popular wines here are made with Grenache and Muscat. Muscat is the same grape used in the sweet Moscato you're used to drinking, but it's also used in a variety of whites and reds from this region.
Try Domaine Lafage Cuvee Nicolas (about $13). This Grenache that is full-bodied to stand up to everything from a roasted chicken to a steak dinner. You can also try Fortant Coast Select Muscat, which is a floral white with just a touch of sweetness.
Some have compared Oregon wines to those in Napa, but you won't find the same price tag in Willamette Valley.
This wine region has won over critics with its reds, most notably the Pinot Noirs. Bringing a bottle from Willamette Valley to the table will impress your guests.
Try Row 503 Pinot Noir (under $20). In addition to being half the price, it's a bit gentler than its Napa cousin, and you can sip it with or without food.
If you like your wine light and white, Australia has plenty of cheap wines that taste like award-winners.
You may have already tried Yellow Tail, which is available everywhere for as little as $5. It's actually decent wine, but if you want something a little better, you don't have to spend a lot more for an Australian treat.
Try La Bossa Sauvignon Blanc (under $10). It's light and fresh, and perfect for a summer day.
Rioja is a must for red wine lovers. This Spanish region produces many bottles around $10 that you'd be proud to bring to a special occasion.
The wines from Rioja are rich and full-bodied, but you'll taste more red fruit than you are used to, keeping it from being super-dry. Tempranillo is your best bet for a good, inexpensive Spanish wine.
Try Bodegas Montecillo Rioja Reserva (about $12). It's fruity and nutty at the same time, making it something you'll drink with or without food.
If you're looking for more value on what's in the bottle rather than what's on the label, Dave Phinney's Locations wines are perfect options. This brand focuses on the fact that you can find great, inexpensive wine all over the world as long as you have a great winemaker (in this case, Dave Phinney).
These wines have plain white labels with big letters indicating their origins, e.g., "F" for France or "AR" for Argentina. The majority are under $20 and are red or white blends.
Marcia Frost is a lifestyle journalist who has been writing about wine for eight years. When she's not tasting for work, she'll always choose a Sauvignon Blanc.


Visiting Camp Dahlke West, Gen. Joe Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, shrugged off the reports when talking to troops, saying "there's all kinds of rumors swirling around," bt that the mission was unchanged.
Miller's comments reflect ongoing efforts to reach such a settlement, and the reality that the reports don't suggest a full US withdrawal from Afghanistan is imminent. Yet it is curious that, after a week of reports to the contrary, top military brass aren't confirming a drawdown as happening at all.
With Mattis gone who is in charge? I don't think Tweets count as orders.
Dumbford seems to be the sort of guy who claims "the beatings will continue until morale improves". What hope have we for the future, with these "leaders"?
It's kinda of hard to demand something when your running for the back door.
We're not going anywhere unless israel tells us we are.


Most readers won't have noticed California's updated breach notification statute, due to take effect on January 1st of 2016. However it is worth noting that California often leads the way with new legislation – good or bad – that will usually be followed by the other states in their own good time. Back in 2003, California became the first state to require the issue of security breach notifications. Since then, nearly every state has followed by enacting laws that require organizations who experience a security breach to notify the affected people.
California's breach notification statute has had an encryption safe harbor since its inception, however the meaning of 'encrypted' was not previously specified, and this is why the above is important to our organizations. This means that should your business communications be intercepted or breached, there is no need to report the breach if all these communications are encrypted.
The statute does place more of a burden upon breached organizations: the first amendment expands the definition of 'personal information' to include data collected through the use of automated license plate recognition systems – optical pattern recognition systems used by law enforcement; the second amendment changes the format of notices to be sent to potential victims, to include a clear header, 'Notice of Data Breach;' while the third amendment is the definition of encryption, already stated above.
Organizations need to be aware of their obligations should they suffer a data breach, however it makes more sense to avoid breaches if at all possible by implementing cost effective data security solutions. One weak point in data transfer is the sending and receiving of emails over the Public Internet.

Thank you for bringing Nicole to us.


Nathan Delfouneso would have the game's opening opportunity after 10 minutes, shooting on goal following a flick-on from his strike partner Armand Gnanduillet, however Ian Lawlor got behind it well to save.
Danny Andrew would then try his luck down the other end following a pass across to him from Ali Crawford, but this time his shot would drift just over the bar.
Crawford would go close with Rovers next chance, as a brilliant ball forward by Kane towards Alfie May would then be touched into the path of Marquis.
He played Crawford through for a first-time shot with his left foot from 20 yards out, only for Ben Heneghan to divert his effort just wide of the post and behind for a corner.
Joe Bunney should then have put his side in front following another of play involving Gnanduillet, but he could only slice his effort well wide despite being right in front of goal.
It would be a miss that would prove to be costly as the first half ticked into stoppage time, and it would be another Kane stunner that sent Rovers into the break in the lead.
leaving Mark Howard grasping at thin air.
In similar fashion to the first half, after the interval the game really struggled to get going, with May having the first chance just after the hour, getting in behind to shoot, only to see Curtis Tilt back to block the ball behind for another Rovers corner.
Gnanduillet was making a nuisance of himself up the other end of the pitch, collecting the ball from substitute Michael Nottingham and shooting low from distance, only to see his shot flash inches wide of Lawlor's right-hand post.
Rovers would double their lead with 12 minutes left to play, with Kane shooting from the edge of the area.
His effort was blocked but only into the path of Marquis, and he cut onto his left foot to slot into the bottom corner and extend his side's advantage.
Kane almost doubled his own tally from a free-kick after a foul on Mallik Wilks, with the midfielder stepping up from 20 yards, only to see the set piece come crashing back off the cross bar.
Rovers now head into Emirates FA Cup action at the weekend when they travel to the capital to face fellow League One side Charlton Athletic at The Valley in the second round on Saturday.


Unfortunately, I have recently become entangled in a dispute of the "property-line" persuasion involving an elderly couple who owns a large swath of adjacent land. To the casual observer, it would appear that our properties are divided by a dense set of evergreen trees that form a line behind their shed and garbage cans, but in actuality their land extends about a foot and a half past the tree-line. Since we moved into the house four years ago I have always mowed and edged that area (knowing full well that it was not technically my land) since it reflected on my lawn and it seemed ridiculous to have him haul his mower past the trees to cut such an insignificant section.
This unspoken arrangement seemed to have been agreeable to all parties until a few weeks ago when a severe storm came through our area and damaged several trees. Like most residents on my street, I cut up the limbs and placed them in a pile by the curb so that the city would come and haul them away. The pile was admittedly large as both me and my elderly neighbors had been contributing to it and extended from the fire hydrant in my side yard to the tree line with about 70% of the brush residing on their side of the actual property line.
Putting up the mower, I walked inside and my wife asked me what we were talking about. I informed her that our neighbor had walked over to specifically point out something that she apparently wished for me to completely ignore. In hindsight, it became clear that the entire purpose of the exchange was to subtlety re-establish their ownership of the small strip of land but being as dense as I am just assumed they had chosen to plant an unusually sensitive species of evergreens that did not adapt well to close encounters with brush.
The pile was soon removed and another storm produced another sizable amount of brush. This time I specifically arranged the brush pile so that it would not contact said tree or block the sidewalk and again they placed a few limbs on the pile as well and I assumed all was copacetic. That pile was also removed by the city and about a week ago, I placed a handful of small sticks and one bag of lawn clippings beside the hydrant in the same area as the brush pile.
The next day I awoke to find a metal pole installed at the curb adorned with a large flower pot to make it as conspicuous as possible. My bag, sticks, and whatever items could be raked from the area where the two piles previously rested had been deposited beside my mailbox on the other side of the metal pole. The message was clear: do not put your stuff on our property.
I was slightly upset that they had raked up some of the pine-needles which were obviously remnants of debris that originated in their yard, but vowed that I would rise above the level of pettiness they were exhibiting by taking the high road and bringing a little class to the neighborhood. Unfortunately, I over-estimated my own integrity and within a few days I mowed a very distinct dividing line between my property and theirs. I then sighted the property line from my fence and took special care to place all sticks and clippings as close to their property as possible even gathering a few extra limbs to make it obvious.
A few days after mowing the front yard I decided to mow the back yard and again generated a small pile of sticks and one bag of clippings. As was my custom, I ceremonially arranged these items as close as possible to the marked property-line to be picked up the next morning when the sanitation department came by. I completed this task just as it got dark and went inside to cool off.
The next morning as I opened the garage door to take out a bag of trash, I noticed that both my bag of clippings and pile of sticks had been moved all the way to the edge of my driveway. I couldn't believe it. The stuff had been out there for less than twelve hours and they had already moved it on my land. Were they hiding in the trees at night waiting for me to put this stuff out? Aren't the elderly normally asleep by 8:30 PM anyway?
I walked out to the road and noticed that they had company and were indeed awake. In fact they and their friends were sitting in a gazebo at the back of the house sipping coffee and having a good old time. Not only did they come on my property and move my stuff, they actually invited guests over to witness their handiwork. My first reaction was to walk over and smack the Taster's Choice out of their wrinkled old hands while telling them what I thought of their little stunt. I quickly decided, however, that I did not want an audience of their friends around when I let them have it so instead I again took the high road that had become so familiar to me.
I picked up the bag of clippings (making sure that I was in full view of the gazebo party) and utilized a series of exaggerated motions to dramatically place the bag exactly where I left it last night. I even made a show of sighting up the property line again and positioning the bag just right. I repeated this process until everything was returned to its rightful place as my neighbors and their friends watched. I concluded with driving by their gazebo slowly and giving them the "stink eye" to let them know that we would settle this when I got home from work.
When I arrived at work I was still so furious from the incident that I vented to my coworkers and told them how I was going to "affiliate somebody" when I got home. After my recounting of the tale, one of my co-workers advised me (between fits of laughter) that I should reconsider my plan since he had been the one who moved all my stuff. Apparently after hearing of our feud back and forth he had stopped by my house that night and moved all my stuff. It was just sheer coincidence that I had only put it out a few hours earlier and that they were having a gazebo party the next morning.
You just better hope that those aren't the kind of old people who get bored in their old age and took computer classes and are secretly following your blog now.

9:15-12:15 Panel 1
The Circulation of Medical Personnel and Knowledge within the Japanese Empire
The relationship between medicine and imperialism is a burgeoning field, but most relevant studies are region-specific, focusing on the situation either in the metropole or in a colony. This panel seeks to explore the transnational flow of medical men and knowledge within the Japanese empire, not only the link between Japan and its colonies but also the (inter)connection between different territories.

Community and Communicability: Responses to Illness in the Japanese Empire
Many scholars have examined the ways in which the government targeted communicable illness such as Hansen's Disease and cholera at the turn of the twentieth century. Our panel builds on the existing scholarship of nation and illness to explore the interconnections between government polices and the variety of community responses to two illnesses, cholera and Hansen's Disease. We are interested not only in the ways in which contagion and medicine become part of the ways in which nation and colony are defined, but also the ways in which both religious and secular communities defined their own notions of folk epidemiology. By looking at both cholera, an acute infectious disease and Hansen's Disease, a chronic infectious disease, we hope to comparatively interrogate the ways in which the nature of the illness effects hospitalization, treatment, and the perception of contagion.
Chair and Discussant: Michael Bourdaghs (The University of Chicago)

Lucy O'Brien
Detroit: Become Human is a poignantly pulpy interactive sci-fi drama where your choices can impact events to a greater and more satisfying degree than in most games of this type. Though I wish its story had been handled with a softer touch, especially considering the subtlety that can be conveyed through its tech and performances, its well-written and acted central trio were vital enough to me that I found myself feeling genuine distress when they were in danger and a sense of victory when they triumphed. Most importantly, Detroit offers a multitude of transparent branching paths that entice further playthroughs, and choices have a permanence that raise the stakes throughout.
Oli Welsh
No Recommendation / Blank
Its big themes are glibly handled, though this is still Quantic Dream's most credible and satisfying interactive yarn by far.
Daniel Bloodworth
Easy Allies
Andy Hartup
Immerse yourself in Detroit's wonderfully realised world, engage with its characters and stories, and you'll love this game.
GameCentral
Metro GameCentral
A considerable improvement on Quantic Dreams' previous work, and while the storytelling is still flawed its tale of abused androids feels very human.
Kimberley Wallace
Despite some shortcomings in its dialogue and plot, Detroit: Become Human tells an engaging story about humanity and technology while allowing your choices to shape the experience
Allegra Frank
Quantic Dream has mastered making a very playable, even enjoyable interactive experience. But there's always this performative feeling behind it — always this reminder that, for as much as someone wants to help out a cause, there's a difference between saying it and doing it.
Detroit: Become Human presents a gripping tale that's occasionally sullied by blatant missteps.
Kirk Hamilton
Detroit tells a story of robots who look and act relatively human, making their way through a nonsense world where everyone, even the humans, doesn't actually look or act human at all. It's a fragmented radio broadcast from a valley within the uncanny valley, so many layers deep in unreality that it could never hope to make it out intact.
Detroit: Become Human improves upon its predecessors by having a cast that you enjoy and want to spend more time around. Quantic Dream's visual craft and presentation is top-notch, but the writing hasn't quite caught up yet. It isn't subtle and some of the references to social ills are amazingly on-the-nose instead of being more unique. It's better than Beyond: Two Souls, but there's still room to grow.
Paul Tamburro
Game Revolution
For those like me who have enjoyed Quantic Dream's games as a guilty pleasure, this is the studio's first release where the story meets its ambition.
Destructoid
Detroit: Become Human, like most Quantic Dream games, is filled with muddled symbolism and a spark of hope amidst its most interesting universe yet. It doesn't have anything particular new to say, but it delivers in terms of drama, to the point where I started a second playthrough shortly after my first seven hour-ish run. It's flawed, but coherent, which is an upgrade.
Tuffcub
TheSixthAxis
Detroit: Become Human really is like sitting down and playing a TV box set. It's a technical masterpiece on PS4 with movie quality sound, lighting and camera work, which is backed up by some top quality action and a wonderfully evocative score. Detroit really worked for me; I was gripped by the story and connected with the characters, but I think some players may have a hard time relating to Kara, Markus, and Connor. That's to be expected. After all, we're only human.
Cristian M. Villa
Areajugones
Quantic Dream surpasses everything it has done before with Detroit: Become Human. A huge script allows for a thrilling story to have multiple layers that, at the same time, deal with topics such as slavery, the human condition or the concept of identity. A real masterpiece of the genre.
Daniel Quesada
Even with some little flaws, Detroit is the best game ever created by Quantic Dream. You'll really feel yourself close to the characters. Be ready for your instincts and principles to be tested.
Bill Lavoy
Shacknews
What makes Detroit: Become Human a great game, though, is that even after going back through alternate narrative branches and winding down my play time, I'm still invested. The world that Quantic Dream gave me to explore is only a short leap from the one we're living in now, and the ideas presented have left me contemplating the role AI could play in our lives sooner rather than later.
Moustafa Gad
IGN Middle East
Detroit has produced an exciting dramatic story based on fictional events but very close to our reality. A group of well-designed characters, both in terms of dramatic appearance and background, the way they interact with events, the dazzling cinematic level of film and the player's options directly affect the story, The game delays procrastination in some seasons and the difficulty of controlling some situations even though the title depends entirely on the options that appear on the screen, in addition to the expected surprises at the end of the story and some positions that are not explained satisfactorily.
Review in Arabic | Read full review
Juan García
A great adventure that looks as awesome as it plays with multiple choices that really matter and a compelling history that it's worth your time.
Marco Esposto
IGN Italy
Detroit: Become Human is a great adventure with multiple choices. Great atmosphere and a story that is all in your hands.
Try it if you really want to see how hard it is to make branching narrative work on this scale. Otherwise, just catch up on Westworld.

Q: Why do I need an administrator account to mount a network drive via ssh? I'm trying to mount a network drive over OpenSSH  on Windows 10 (authenticated with username and password of a non-admin user). When I use the net use command (via a PowerShell script) to mount a local folder to a network drive within ssh, I get the following error:
The password is invalid for <PATH>
When I run the exact same script on the machine locally with the same user, it works without admin access. If I enter admin credentials over SSH, it also works. Is there any way to make this work over ssh without admin access?
EDIT:
According to this issus:
https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/issues/139
what I'm doing should be possible as long as a username/password is used to authenticate ssh.

A: Continuing from my comment...
https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/issues/139

"This is by design. Mapped network drives are associated with a logon
session. SSH remote sessions are created with an associated network
logon session (these are independent of other logon sessions)."
You can map drive within sshd sesion if you did login with password as
follows:

net use t: \vboxsrv\sharename

If logged in via public key or the remote share need a different
username and password credential, you can do as follows:

net use t: \vboxsrv\sharename /user:domainname/username *

then type the password when prompted.
Just to make a comment on network drive letters.
I personally don't like them, because they had a lot of side effects,
which are not always visible immediately.

*

*they are only valid in the session (desktop session) they are created
in. They are not visible in the session where the Windows Services
are running in. This is also a problem when writing applications you
are goint to run as Scheduled Task

*They are user specifc. (keep in mind, that a user account name is
only a label, the user is internal idendified by a unique identifier
(SID), which is always different for local acounts on different
machines and domain accounts. Create a user "peter" on a local
machine, deleting the account and create it again on the same machine
will result in two different SIDs for this user (with of corse
different home directories). c:\users\peter is owned by the first
"peter" logged on to the machine. The second user Peter will get an
appendis of computername or domainname (depending where the second
users belongs to). If this is still not unique, a number is appended
to the username.domain.0001 (in case of recreated users after
deletion)

*if you define persistent network drive letters - they are not working
outside an explorer context. Only the explorer.exe able to reconnect
them

*Network drives connected in explorer are not accessible in elevated
programs and vice versa

*They are limiting the number of disk volumes you can mount on servers

*

*the alphabet still has only 25 Letters.

Since Windows Vista we are able to use Symbolic Links, allowing you to
link UNC path based Directories and Files into the local filesystem,
without using network drive letters.
If you need to use a different credential on the network connect, then
you should use the Windows Credential Manager (Control Panel) to store
the credentials to this location. If you want to define the
credentials in cmd.exe, powershell or ssh - then use cmdkey.exe - it
will store it in the Windows Credential Manager.

The Art Cellar Gallery Presents "20 Years in Review, A Retrospective" by Tony Griffin, July 13 – Aug. 12
Published: Monday, July 10, 2017 at 9:46 am
Fog Structures
20 Years in Review, A Retrospective
July 13 – August 12
Artist Reception July 15, 4-6pm
From landscapes in blues and greens to the soft pastels in his figurative paintings and drawings, Tony Griffin's work on canvas or paper is truly inspiring. With a unique impressionistic style Tony brings the viewer into his works of art, onlookers feel as though they are there with him as he paints. The Art Cellar Gallery's Feature Exhibition, 20 Years in Review, A Retrospective will focus on 20 years of Tony Griffin's diverse works of art. Landscapes, structures, still lifes and figurative works in oil, walnut ink and graphite will fill the lower level gallery from July 12 to August 13. Tony Griffin will also be in attendance during the Artist Reception being held at the Art Cellar Gallery on Saturday, July 15 from 4 to 6pm.
In 1970, at the young age of 11, Griffin embarked on an artistic journey to Florence, Italy and it changed his life. While attending the American International School of Florence, Tony lived and apprenticed with fresco artist Ben Long. Griffin's early artistic training was heavily influenced by Italian Renaissance masters. Tony attended the North Carolina School of the Arts and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art. Griffin's work has evolved from a deep-rooted understanding and appreciation of the academic approach to a more personal and direct interpretation of his experiences and surroundings.Tony is a perceptual painter; his work is based on observation and direct response. While Griffin remains faithful to the principles and ideals of his classical training, his work has developed into a looser, more confident voice – a testament not only to his skill, but to his personal vision.
The public is invited to view 20 Years in Review, A Retrospective by artist Tony Griffin from July 13 to August 12th and to meet the artist on Saturday, July 15th from 4 to 6 pm. The Art Cellar Gallery focuses on North Carolina artists while including select artists from across the Southeast, showing work from large scale canvases to smaller works on paper as well as sculpture, glass and clay. A High Country arts destination celebrating 25 seasons, The Art Cellar Gallery is located on Hwy. 184 in Banner Elk and is open Monday through Saturday from 10am to 5pm. For more information contact the gallery online at artcellaronline.com or by phone 828-898-5175.

When the cargo is there: you can build the ship.
Published: 20th July 2020
Connecting with the companies which are interested to have their goods transported sustainably.
In the shipping world, ships are being built when the cargo is there to be transported. This has been a known fact in history, and still is no different. For that reason, importers and other shippers, are welcomed by EcoClipper to come in contact to brainstorm about the different routes and destinations. This week, on the schedule: a visit to Cologne, with Sebastian Brimmers co-founder of the pepper importer Hennes finest.
About 80% of the goods entering the large seaports of the Netherlands: Rotterdam and Amsterdam, are distributed further to other European destinations. For a large part these destinations are in Germany. As of such when, a few weeks ago, a German pepper importer contacted EcoClipper, it was no surprise.
Yet, when communication developed further things really started happening. The initiator of the contact, Sebastian Brimmers, turned out to be an avid sailor having a few Atlantic crossings under his belt, and determined to make a change in the logistics part of Hennes finest product: pepper. The initial talks moved from sustainability, fair trading standards and social responsibility, via transparency in business, communicating a true and just story to the meteorological circumstances, trade winds, monsoons and sailing routes of the world.
Talking about winds – by Hennes Finest
Hennes finest is a German pepper company founded 10 years ago by three friends. They were traveling around Eastern Asia, and saw opportunities in the trade of pepper, grown in Cambodia by small farmers. During their successful rise and existence, they spread the love for good and fair grown quality pepper throughout Germany. Now, they were at a crossroads to take their brand even further, and close the loop of sustainability by also making the transport sustainable.
When Sebastian's intentions became clear, there was no way around it then to pay a visit to Hennes finest headquarters in Cologne. In line with the vision of sustainable travel, I took a pleasant train ride from Amsterdam, and arrived the same morning at the main train station next to the impressive gothic medieval cathedral of Cologne. Here Sebastian, greeted me, and after a visit to this cathedral and some fine spiritual lingering, we were off to the logistics warehouse were, we met some of the business partners who are responsible for packaging and sending all the pepper from there around Germany.
In the afternoon Sebastian, introduced me to his two companions: Martin Gompelmann and Bastian Stollwerk, in the shop and offices of the company. Here maps, drawings, samples and coffee came on the table, and a good few hour of brainstorming went past. It became very clear an Asia to Europe line, for emission free clipper ships, is not only a fabulous dream, but quite an appealing cargo, and passenger route, feasible from a sailing and economical point of view.
On the train ride back, full of pepper stories and samples of the real product, and as architecture changed and rolling hills turned into low flat land again, I realized that this visit would become a start of a story, which could promise to become quite big.
