1. Defining what your site requires now and features you know you'll need in the future. This includes completing a Discovery Phase outlining the information architecture (sitemap), types of content, and functional specifications.
2. Researching what WordPress and Drupal are better at, including taxonomy, templates, page editing and to the extent the site will need to be customized.
3. Evaluating your internal resources (e.g. team capabilities and experience with CMSs) and determining a budget for building and maintaining the site.
This post looks at specific CMS features and ranks either WordPress or Drupal as the better option, or if they are both equally as good. Let's first take a look at an overview of each platform.
Founded in 2003 by Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little, WordPress is the most widely used CMS in use today. It has a 58% market share and over 20,000,000 websites use it. Originally it was developed to create simple sites and blogs. Presently WordPress has a 91% share of blogs. Notable sites that use WordPress are TechCrunch, The New Yorker, The Boston Public Library and Variety. Many high profile brands use WordPress for the blogging part of their site, otherwise, most sites are small.
Founded in 2001 by Dries Buytaert, Drupal was originally created as a community website building platform. The name Drupal refers to the Dutch word for Village. It has a 4.8% market share (3rd behind Joomla) and over 1,000,000 sites use Drupal. Drupal is used by fewer sites but more high traffic sites, such as Weather.com, The Economist, Fox News, Nasdaq, FastCompany, The Washington Post, Martha Stewart, United Nations, MTV, and Warner Brothers.
Here's a breakdown of specific features.
Since both WordPress and Drupal are free, the question is - does it take longer to build a site with either? The answer depends on the size and requirements for your site but if you need a small site (under 50 pages) without custom features, then WordPress is less expensive, especially if you use an existing template. However it's important to note, if you need plugins e.g. class registration, WordPress will cost more long-term since plugins cost extra with WordPress. Modules (Drupal version for plugins) are almost always free with Drupal. Large sites can be built more efficiently with Drupal reducing cost. Also, more developers know WordPress since it is easier to learn so they can be less expensive. There are a lot of factors here, but all things considered, if you have a small budget, need a small site and are up for using a template, WordPress is a better fit.
Drupal is more scalable than WordPress. It's more flexible and customizable and is better at managing large amounts of content. Components that comprise scalability include: taxonomy, performance, roles and permissions, security, search, community and personalization. Drupal excels in all of these areas. That is why Gartner named Acquia (the commercial company that supports Drupal) a top CMS and only open source CMS, for the past 4 years in their Magic Quadrant report. Note Gartner doesn't include WordPress, because in their view, it's not capable of supporting enterprise scalable websites. Drupal wins this hands down.
Both Drupal and WordPress have extensive support resources. Since WordPress has a larger market share, more developers are familiar with it and there are many WordPress conferences each year around the world.
But Drupal has a passionate community of developers and supporters as well. As Wikipedia states: 'As of April 2017, the Drupal community is composed of more than 1.3 million members, including 106,650 users (developers) actively contributing, resulting in more than 37,110 free modules that extend and customize Drupal functionality, over 2,445 free themes that change the look and feel of Drupal, and at least 1,116 free distributions that allow users to quickly and easily set up a complex, use-specific Drupal in fewer steps.' Drupal also has 'DrupalCons' (conventions) each year around the world that are attended by thousands of developers and end users. Acquia located in Boston, provides support and services for Drupal. They have 800 employees and have been named one of the fastest growing software companies in the US by Deloitte.
Since both WordPress and Drupal have active support communities then this one is a tie.
Estimates vary but suffice to say there are over 30,000 plugins (or modules) for both WordPress and Drupal. WordPress plugins are mostly fee based while Drupal are mostly free. This is important to note and speaks to what each platform is and stands for. WordPress is more commercial and commerce based while Drupal is more egalitarian and community based. That is why nonprofits love Drupal, especially academic institutions like Harvard and MIT.
Both are extensible, so this one is a tie.
While there are many templates for Drupal there are more for WordPress. This fits with the getup and running quickly capability with WordPress. Note templates or 'Themes' are often buggy and poorly designed, that is why it's best to purchase high selling ones that are well tested and have extensive documentation and support. If you want a template site then WordPress is the better bet.
Drupal has more flexible, customizable and extensible taxonomy capabilities. WordPress out of the box is not as flexible but there are plugins that increase this functionality. In addition to tags, content types and categories, Drupal has what they call Vocabularies which are used to organize sets of taxonomy terms. In other words Drupal has a very extensive, flexible and customizable taxonomy capability. Drupal is the winner here.
There are over 35 members of the Drupal security team and they utilize a series of protocols and a chain of responsibility for handling issues. WordPress has a more decentralized and less extensive security capability. Note most vulnerabilities in a CMS are from 3rd party plugins and modules. WordPress is hacked more frequently due to the amount of sites and less plugin scrutiny. Drupal is considered more secure than WordPress.
Drupal and WordPress have equally capable page editing capabilities. However WordPress has 'Visual Composer' which allows for creating page layouts without knowing code. Drupal has a Drag Drop Builder module but it's not as advanced as Visual Composer. Visual Composer helps create unique pages quickly but not as quickly as a template. Drupal is better at creating custom templates. There are many variables here but overall WordPress is easier to edit and build pages with.
Drupal has a module called Big Pipe which remembers and caches content from page to page, serving up only what is needed. This allows for faster load times. Drupal has other built-in features such as caching to increase site performance. Drupal wins this one.
Both WordPress and Drupal have easy to use SEO tools. Yoast is a suite of SEO plugins for WordPress. Drupal has had SEO capabilities built into core since the beginning. Since Drupal is more open and customizable, the edge goes to Drupal here.
If your site is purely ecommerce, Shopify and Magento are better platforms than WordPress and Drupal. That said WordPress has a well tested, capable plugin called WooCommerce and Drupal has Drupal Commerce. Drupal Commerce is very capable and flexible. It works well when adding ecommerce to a community or corporate site. Both WordPress and Drupal have capable ecommerce capabilities but in different ways.
Drupal has a search API and modules that allow for customizing the back end. Also Apache Solr works well with Drupal for custom advanced search features and indexing large amounts of content. Along with better taxonomy capabilities Drupal provides more extensive search capabilities. Not to say WordPress lacks search capabilities as well, but Drupal is stronger in this area.
While WordPress has several community plugins e.g. forums, discussion boards, member directories etc., the ability to create and customize community features is easier to do with Drupal. For example, Drupal has an extensive matrix of permissions based on roles while WordPress is not as fine grained. The original concept for Drupal was community interaction and there are extensive modules and capabilities with Drupal core for managing online communities. For these reasons, Drupal gets the nod here.
Views: Drupal has a module called Views which is used by over a half million websites. Views allows you to organize and display content any way you like. It's more difficult and less intuitive to do this with WordPress.
Queries: With Drupal you can build queries by writing code in an intuitive way. WordPress is more template based.
Blocks: Drupal allows for blocks to be displayed on different pages easily. A block is a section of a web page. It's more difficult to create blocks, and display them on certain pages, with WordPress.
These features are easier with Drupal.
In short, Drupal is better for large, custom websites, while WordPress is better for smaller, simpler sites. Both are very good at what they do, will continue to grow and arguably are better than other open source CMSs as well as fee based CMSs. Remember to first complete a Discovery Phase as well as understand the capabilities and experience of your team, before deciding which CMS is best for you.

Q: wmic error (invalid XSL format) in windows7 wmic process get /format:csv

What is wrong with this command in Windows 7?
I get:

Invalid XSL format (or) file name.

A: This is a bug in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 (also R2) WMIC. When you use (for example) Dutch regional settings in an English Windows installation, WMIC searches for the xsl files inside C:\Windows\System32\wbem\nl-NL, instead of C:\Windows\System32\wbem\en-US where they are.
Workarounds:

*

*Copy or move the C:\Windows\system32\wbem\en-US\*.xsl files up into the C:\Windows\system32\wbem\ folder.

*Change your regional settings to match your Windows language version, log out and back in.

*Specify the full path: WMIC process get /format:"%WINDIR%\System32\wbem\en-US\csv".

A: This is a Windows 7 wmic bug. Change the International setings to English (United States), reboot and test.

A: It's a bug in the wmic command. It's been suggested to copy XSL files into the %WINDIR%\system32 (or equivalent if 64 bit.) However, the command below works just as well without the need to copy files:
wmic process get ProcessId,Description,CommandLine,ExecutablePath,ParentProcessId /format:"%WINDIR%\System32\wbem\en-us\csv"
Of course, the "en-us" will be different for different locales.
If you want to redirect output to a file add a switch /output:"your filename here" before the process keyword

"Winterfell" feels a little too much like a box-checking prologue to the final season of Game of Thrones, not the exciting opening chapter.
Announcing the first of three e-books, collecting all my writing on Game of Thrones.
The Wall is down, and the games are over, and the surviving characters must now prove whether they've actually absorbed any of the show's lessons.
"Beyond the Wall" might just be the dumbest episode of Game of Thrones ever, but there's good stuff here if we look beyond the contrivances.
"Eastwatch" is something of a table-setting episode, but it also looks at how fathers live in their children, for better or worse.
The stunningly good "The Spoils of War" packs a lot of emotional subtext into a short and action-packed episode.
In "The Queen's Justice," ice and fire finally come together, and everyone needs to let go of the things they think they know.
With new allegiances being forged, "Stormborn" tests the strengths—and limitations—of different kinds of loyalty.
In "Dragonstone," the Season Seven premiere of Game of Thrones, survival may depend on reconciling the sins of the past with the needs of the future.
The sixth season finale of Game of Thrones finds women seizing control of the board. But who will these women need to become to hold onto power?
"Battle of the Bastards" is a magnificent hour of television. But is it a great episode of Game of Thrones?
"No One" ever thinks they're the bad guy, but there comes a time when everyone has to ask themselves the question.
This week, we see all the broken people trying to figure out what can be built from the shattered pieces of the past.
An awkward and underwhelming episode focuses on the question of family loyalty.
"Terrible things happen for a reason," we are told in "The Door." But is that really a comforting thought?
In "Book of the Stranger," the ladies of Game of Thrones are gettin' in formation—cause they slay.


I was invited for a food tasting session at Koufu which was recently open for business in Subang/Puchong.
Don't you just love it when restaurant owners put in so much effort in furnishing the restaurant? I believe when it comes to dining out, the taste of the food isn't everything (although obviously, it does play a major role), but the surroundings play an equally vital role as well especially in stimulating the appetite of the customers.
With that being said, my friend and I have had a great time dining here because the ambiance was on par with the food served. The perfect blend of the red, yellow and white colors creates a sense of harmony within the restaurant walls. It was a blissful experience!
Koufu serves Foo Chow food, which are definitely not common in KL/PJ areas. Reminded me a lot about my four years stay in Perak where the food was good and the people were friendly.
This dish uses kampung chicken. While we might not know or consider this as an added advantage, the elderly knows better! Kampung chickens are more expensive compared to those sold in supermarkets because they are believed to be more flavorful, and hence, are considered to be premium by those who know their food well.
For those who do not find the soup sufficiently infused with the Chinese red wine, you can request to upgrade your dish. It is slightly more expensive, but it is going to be worth every extra penny that you pay. The noodles and soft and succulent, and the ingredients, when combined, produce the perfect meal.
The one thing that sets this dish apart from every other wantan noodles in town is, well, the noodles! They describe their noodles as 'QQ'. The Foochows describe their chewy noodles as 'Q'. So imagine having 'QQ' noodles - double the chewiness! And as you can see, they are very generous with the char siew.
I absolutely love the dumplings. The soup is so flavorful and the meats and condiments blended so well, making it the perfect side dish for the noodles.
Voila! The famous Long Yen noodles. You know something is definitely good when it is the boss' favorite.
First bite and it reminded me of a thicker version of the Cantonese style noodles. The long yen noodles are obviously thicker, and are pretty starchy as well. You should definitely try it out if you have such a preference.
Another dish which you cannot easily find in the city - Kong Piang!
This is a very special biscuit originated from Sitiawan, and it doesn't come as a surprise if many of you have not tried it. It is hard and crusty, with a special savory filling inside. Perfect when dipped in the chili sauce provided.
The Koufu Tang Shui is a product of 10 different kinds of ingredients (refer to the menu to know exactly which). Initially, I was skeptical when the boss introduced this dessert. Who would have thought that a combination of so many different types of herbs and grains can produce such perfection?
And just when you think that 'tang shui' (direct translation: sugar water) are typically as sweet as having to drink 3 parts sugar and 1 part water, you would be very surprised to try this one. The amount of sweetness is perfect. It isn't like you're drinking dissolved sugar, because the sweetness comes from the blend of the ingredients, making it so natural and pleasurable to the taste buds.
Special thanks to the boss and Jason for the detailed explanation and patience. Love the fact that all the workers are very friendly and helpful as well. Had a great time there.

How to Watch NBA TV Online without Cable
Home » TV » Channels » How to Watch NBA TV Online without Cable
In the 2021-2022 season, NBA TV will televise 107 games. Beyond being a fan of any given team, if you are a basketball fan, you want NBA TV. And thankfully, it is available outside the cable and satellite companies.
In a hurry? If you just want to start watching NBA TV, these services provide it and a lot more:
FuboTV: Provides a broad range of 100+ channels with a focus on sports. Try it free for 7 days!
Sling TV: Offers a great deal including NBA TV and NBA League Pass, which allows you to watch all out-market games!
DIRECTV STREAM: NBA TV comes with its Choice Plan, which also gives you access to the RSNs in your area!
1 How to Watch NBA TV Live Without Cable
2 Streaming Services With NBA TV
3 Other Ways to Get NBA TV
4 TVs and Devices to Watch NBA TV
If you are a hardcore basketball fan, you'll likely spend many hours watching NBA TV. This channel features coverage of select preseason, regular season, and playoff games from around the league.
It also offers multiple hours of reality television, interviews with retired legends, and other original programming every week throughout the year.
Any game that is broadcast on NBA TV can be downloaded for future viewing. And you can also watch games in multiple languages.
Although NBA TV is not as widely available as other channels like NFL Network, there are still a number of quality streaming services that provide it.
How to Watch NBA TV Live Without Cable
NBA TV is a pay television station. It is not available over the air via an antenna. So you need to get it through a third-party provider. In the past, that meant a cable or satellite service. But today, NBA TV is available from a number of streaming services.
To use a streaming service, you need a solid internet connection because that is the medium that the channel flows through. With that, you can sign up with any live TV streaming service that offers NBA TV and watch it on a TV or other streaming device.
Streaming Services With NBA TV
There are many potential benefits to watching NBA TV through a streaming service as opposed to doing so through your cable provider. For example, you don't need to sign a contract, which means that you aren't stuck paying for a service that you might not use after a month or two. Or paying a premium to get out of a contract.
Furthermore, opting for a nontraditional service may be ideal for those who move on a regular basis. With most streaming platforms, you don't have to deal with the hassle of canceling, transferring, or activating your service just because your address changed. (Note, however, that the channels you receive will change — but this shouldn't affect NBA TV.)
If you are looking to stream NBA TV, you can do so through SlingTV, FuboTV, and DIRECTV STREAM. Let's take a closer look at how much these services cost and what you get for your money.
SlingTV
Sling TV offers a special deal for NBA fans. Its Orange plan includes ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN3 for $35/mo. But you can add to this the NBA League Pass package for $29 a month, which includes NBA TV.
NBA League Pass allows you to watch every game from around the league on any given night throughout the regular season except for games that are blacked out in your area. (If you want to catch the games of your local NBA team, check out FuboTV and DIRECTV STREAM because they offer this through their RSNs.)
For more information see our Sling TV review.
NBA TV and other channels on FuboTV.
There are various ways to get NBA TV from FuboTV. Start with its base plan of 100+ (35+ sports) channels for $64.99/mo. Then you can add Fubo Extra for $7.99/mo gives you it as part of 48 more channels including MLB Network and NHL Network.
If you want even more sports, you can get Sports Plus with NFL Redzone add-on for $10.99/mo. It provides 26 sports channels covering the full range of college and pro leagues.
Additionally, in many areas, FuboTV provides the regional sports network (RSN) that airs almost all the games of the local team. This is true of Washington Wizards, Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls, Houston Rockets, New York Knicks, Sacramento Kings, Golden State Warriors, Philadelphia 76ers, and Portland Trail Blazers.
To learn more, read our detailed FuboTV review.
NBA TV is available through the DIRECTV STREAM (formerly AT&T TV) Choice package. This package is more expensive than the others at $84.99 a month. But there is a good reason to spend the extra money: regional sports networks.
If your home team wasn't in the list above for FuboTV, rest assured, DIRECTV STREAM has you covered. Plus the Choice plan comes with roughly 100 other channels including MLB Network, NHL Network, and general channels like ESPN and FS1.
Read our DIRECTV STREAM review for all the details.
Other Ways to Get NBA TV
There are other ways to stream NBA TV:
NBA TV: For $6.99/mo, you can get NBA TV directly and watch it on the NBA app.
YouTube TV: Offers NBA TV and 85+ other channels as part of its base plan. They also have an NBA League Pass deal but Sling TV is much cheaper.
Amazon Prime: Get NBA League Pass with NBA TV for $199.00/yr.
NBA App: You can use this to watch NBA TV using a direct subscription or using TV Everywhere with your cable, satellite, or streaming subscription.
TVs and Devices to Watch NBA TV
NBA TV on an Android phone running Sling TV.
You should be able to use whatever devices you currently use to stream video for NBA TV.
All three we've discussed explicitly support recent Samsung smart TVs. Sling TV and FuboTV also support smart TVs from LG, Vizio, and models Android TV compatible models. FuboTV also supports Hisense TVs.
You are also good if you have any of the popular "stick" devices: Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Roku. Android and iOS mobile devices are the same. And so is casting using Chromecast.
Finally, FuboTV and Sling TV support the Xbox One. Sling TV also supports the Oculus VR device.
Of course, you can also watch in a web browser but it isn't necessary for your whole household to huddle around the computer to watch games.
There are many ways to gain access to NBA TV even if you are a basketball fan who doesn't want to pay for cable. It is available on FuboTV, SlingTV, and DIRECTV STREAM. Your viewing habits and budget will determine which service is best for you.
It's important to note that NBA TV is not the same as NBA League Pass. The key difference is that NBA TV serves as the league's primary cable content provider while NBA League Pass is dedicated to coverage of games featuring its 30 teams.
However, you can gain access to both networks through SlingTV, YouTube TV, Amazon, and directly from the NBA.
Unlike most cable providers, you do not need to sign a contract when subscribing to your preferred streaming service. This means that you can cancel or modify your existing subscription whenever you want.
Furthermore, many streaming services offer free trials, which can make it easier to select a platform and plan that meets your needs.
Can I get NBA TV without paying for it?
Limited NBA TV content may be made available as part of a free preview for prospective customers. However, there is no way to get full access to this network without paying for it. But you can get it for a very low cost: the NBA TV plan is only $6.99/mo or $59.99/yr.
Can I watch every game on NBA TV?
NBA TV does not air every game. In a typical season, it will broadcast about 100 games featuring as many different teams as possible. In addition, the channel often takes live looks around the league, which means that you'll be able to see snippets of every game being played on a given day.
What's the difference between NBA TV and NBA League Pass?
NBA TV offers live coverage of a limited number of games per year, and there is no guarantee that your particular team will be featured during a specific broadcast window. NBA League Pass provides access to every game that is played during the regular season with the exception of blackout games in your location.
You can also buy a season pass for a specific team. This may be an ideal choice for those who are fans of a single franchise and don't care to watch the other teams play on a regular basis.
Note, however, that if your favorite team is local to you, you need to sign up with a streaming service that offers your local RSNs like FuboTV and DIRECTV STREAM.
Is there a way to watch NBA TV on Roku?
Yes, you can watch NBA TV on your Roku device. Sling TV, FuboTV, and DIRECTV STREAM all support the vast majority of Roku devices and similar ones like Amazon Fire TV and Apple TV. There is also the NBA app itself that you can use to watch on your Roku device.
Does Hulu have NBA TV?
No, Hulu does not offer NBA TV at this time. It does, however, offer other channels such as ESPN and TNT that carry a lot of live NBA basketball both during the season and during the playoffs. It also offers coverage of other sports like the NFL and NCAA.
Does NBA TV blackout games?
If your local team is on NBA TV, the game will be blacked out. You'll only be able to watch on the local affiliate television station. Because of this, if you are a fan of your local NBA team, you should see about getting access to your regional sports networks, which will air pretty much all regular-season games.
Can I watch NBA TV games on NBA League Pass?
NBA TV games are blacked out on NBA League Pass. So you can't watch those games unless you also get an NBA TV subscription. If you get League Pass through Sling TV, it also provides NBA TV. If you get it directly from the NBA, you can add NBA TV for an additional fee.

It's no accident you just typed in a search term related to search engine optimization or SEM and and found us here in the Clearmont search results – we used specific strategies and technical maneuvers to increase our visibility here in search engines.
Over 80% of consumers use search engines to find local businesses, and 90% of searchers never go past Page 1 of Google. Also, 94% of people will click on Organic Results rather than paid advertisements, and trust organic results more than ads which increases avg conversion rate. Without good SEO you are losing over 90% of all Clearmont prospects searching online for the exact products and/or services your business provides.
SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is basically the process which gets your business to show up as the #1 result on Google (or other search engines) when someone searches for the products or services your business provides in Clearmont. Our SEO agency knows the proper steps to get your website in the top Google results no matter the location or size of your business.
SEO is just like an advertisement you see every day when you drive by your home in Clearmont. If you see it advertising a sale in a clothing store, visit that store, and possibly try some new brands, thus contributing to the growth of the store. This is exactly how SEO works. As users search for the internet for various queries, the more they see it in the search engines, the more than likely they are going to visit the page.
As an example, a customer trying to find an eatery to eat in Clearmont will select all from the ones that come up in the first rankings page and not the others. Understand that running a successful firm needs investments.
A functional website isn't enough to bring new customers to a business. While businesses can purchase their online visibility, SEO can help you put your products and services in front of people needing them, in a way that makes you popular for quality. If the information on your website is persuasive and up to date, prospective buyers have a propensity to make a purchase.
There are more people using the internet on their mobile devices than ever. This is no new thing since cellular devices are convenient to carry around and when you get stuck somewhere, they can come in handy and help you find a way out. Mobile users tend to rely more on organic search results than on paid ads. This is so since natural results are more personalized and offer more advantages. Firms that appreciate the value of cellular devices should focus on SEO.
The use of cell phones can be associated with social media pages. A lot of people discuss business on Twitter, Facebook or WhatsApp every day. When a user is hunting for a solution to their problem, it is necessary that you'll be there right on the top of the page. If your establishment's site has reliable information, you are assured of getting recommendations from these internet users.
It's easy for small business owners to overlook the importance of SEO in their overall marketing mix. Nonetheless, a small business could gain a lot from SEO, because most people tend to search online for solutions in their neighborhood. Consider how many people look for a local restaurant online because they want to order online, if you rank at the top, you just gained a new customer. Top ranking business are the most likely to benefit from such users. Consider the fact that people often review businesses after they have found them online is just an added benefit.
Local Clearmont businesses are typically the ones who have the most to gain from SEO as they can gain so many recommendations from local customers. If you had the notion that getting an SEO professional is an unnecessary expenditure, keep in mind that individuals are always checking into new towns while paying visits and trying to find new options.
It has been noted that most people spend their time on the internet. Their hectic life and busy schedules don't prevent them from using the internet as a source of information, learning and entertainment, and sometimes as a business place. This implies that the need for print media and TV is going down. By investing in SEO today, you help your business maintain its relevance in the foreseeable future.
Small businesses in Clearmont find it hard to fight against their established competitors, as they lack the means and the power to do it. SEO is an inexpensive and equal platform everybody can use to attract customers. An established brand may overlook the importance of SEO, thus creating opportunities for small businesses to take advantage of. At the end of the day, trust gets generated and potential customers become loyal customers and advocates of your brand.

Retired LAPD Detective Charged With Assault With a Semi-Automatic Firearm After Dispute in South L.A. Parking Lot: DA
Posted 4:37 PM, October 3, 2018, by Marissa Wenzke
A retired Los Angeles Police Department detective was charged with assault with a semi-automatic firearm Wednesday after allegedly pointing a loaded gun at a person trying to intervene when he got into a dispute at a South L.A. parking lot last month, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office said.
Charles Gerald Tizano allegedly got into an altercation with a driver blocking the exit of a parking lot located at West Adams Boulevard and South Broadway in the Historic South-Central neighborhood on Sept. 6, according to prosecutors.
The 70-year-old former detective allegedly pointed a loaded semi-automatic handgun at a bystander who tried to intervene, prosecutors said.
The case remains under investigation by the LAPD while prosecutors have requested Tizano's bail be set at $125,000.
He is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday. The charge also includes an allegation of personally using a firearm, prosecutors said.
If convicted, Tizano faces a maximum possible sentence of 19 years in state prison.

Hot investment tip: I know a stock fund that has beaten the S&P 500 consistently for 20 years. It pursues a rigorous fundamental research process, and is advised by some of the best names in the business. Its managers, who turn over every year, work out of a state-of-the-art investment lab in a quiet, wealthy Boston suburb. Want in?
Too bad—you can't invest with the fund, and neither can I. In fact, the fund has only one client, and it's not even a person. The sole client in the Babson College Fund (BCF) is . . . Babson College.
The Trustees of Babson College entrust a portion of the college's endowment to 24 hand-picked student managers and their mentors. This is not play money; it's the real thing.
In the heart of Babson's Stephen D. Cutler Center for Investments and Finance, you'll find a dark, glass-walled, room glowing in the light of dozens of workstations. Overhead, a ticker displays stock prices and other market data. CNBC anchors can be seen on a pair of LCDs. Students pore over data from FactSet, Bloomberg, and Thomson-Reuters.
Contrasting this rush of real-time market data, one wall bears a time line of investment trends, fads, and bubbles on a Periodic Table of Investment Returns, showing annual returns of various investments from 1926 to 2018. A glance at the wall reminds visitors that European stocks soared 34.4 percent in 2007, and then fell 46.1 percent the following year. Another glance tells the history of gold investments, S&P 500 stocks, or U.S. Treasury bonds. The table is both addictive and cautionary, and under it the managers of the BCF grind through mountains of information, searching for undervalued stocks.
Patrick Gregory, CFA and his team of 10 Executives in Residence meet Tuesday nights with the BCF student managers. The advisors are a group of analysts, portfolio managers, and chief investment officers who according to Gregory, have an average of 25 years of experience and manage tens of billions of dollars. Gregory, a former institutional portfolio manager, oversees the weekly meetings in which the students discuss portfolio positioning and recommend new stocks for the fund. The executives question, comment, and point out gaps in information or judgment.
With each successive pitch, the students improve on the skills that matter to investment firms. They learn to differentiate a good company from a good stock, to conduct a detailed fundamental analysis of a company, and to determine what's a reasonable value for the company given its fundamentals. They also learn to identify—and profit from—inflection points in the market.
Real pressure, real expertise, real money. For aspiring investment managers, it doesn't get any more real.
During the month of February, you can help celebrate Babson's Centennial year by making a gift to support The Cutler Center, or your favorite Center or Institute.

Amazing to think that just two years ago this was a BSP fixture and now one of us are going to be in league 1 next season! Stevenage of course lost to Cambridge courtesy of a late Rendell goal in the semi's before going on to win the BSP the following year!
Stevenage are a big strong side and will be hard to break down as Accrington found out and we didn't score against them away or indeed until the second half at Plainmoor. However, once Danny scored what might have been the goal of the season in front of the home fans, we did comprehensibly outplay them and I'm sure some decent football on a decent surface could see us on the way to winning this one.
Our history against Stevenage is good with 4 wins and 2 draws (both 0-0 at Broadhall) and hopefully that sequence can continue for at least one more game.
To be honest, I can't see Buckle changing the line up that got us through against Shrewsbury barring injury. Danny did have a decent second half against Stevenage and may be in line to get some pitch time in the second half running against their defenders.
It is going to be another tense build up to Saturday but to watch our team play at Old Trafford is an opportunity that doesn't come along too often (despite it being almost twice this season ;D ) and will be a fitting end to what has been an excellent season of football!
To be honest, I can't see Buckle changing the line up that got us through against Shrewsbury barring injury.
That would be my assumption as well. Was it against Stevenage that we had "Penaltygate" and Zebs missed from the spot? I know we beat them 2-0 and I think we could have won by more. It will be a different story on Saturday - let's not forget how they beat Newcastle a few months back.
The only thing that matters on Saturday is the result. I don't care how prety our play is (although we need to be at our best!), it's all about holding our nerve and grinding the result out. It's going to be a great pitch and that is great for our players, we need to play our game in the same way that we have before against Shrewsbury.
Losing-out to Exeter in the play-offs was probably the biggest lesson that Bucks has learned as a fledgling manager. Since then we have had so many big "one-offs" and perhaps only the Crawley match is an example where the approach has been wrong and the team has been out-thought, overall I think that is a pretty good record.
Westley is a similar "character" to Evans in their approach to football. Expect every single dirty trick in the book and a physical team that pushes past the boundaries of the average club. Still, it's got them where they are today and if we don't recognise that is how they play then they we will come a cropper.
I hope that we have strong officials who can spot diving, timewasting, off-the ball fouling and will not bow to the pressure that will be put on them by Westley & Co.
To be honest Rob I WOULD expect a change.
Stevenage's game revolves around Darius Charles and I don't believe the midfield we started with against Shrewsbury is strong enough to contain him. If we want to win the midfield battle then we need to stop him.
I believe that Oastler should come in and join Lathrope in the centre, with O'kane moving out wide and Kee dropping to the bench. This move wouldn't take anything away from our attacking game, if anything I think it would increase it. Also Kee is not and never will be a winger, his best role is as a back up striker to come on when/if we need to change things around.
That is the only change I could see happening though as the rest of the team are all playing well.
I agree with you to a point Rich but my mind changed after the showing at Rotherham which was not good and isn't that the same side? But then you were there and I wasn't!
Stevenage were absolutely demolished in the second half at Plainmoor. It was a 2-0 trouncing as they were completely outplayed.
On a bigger pitch you would seriously have to fancy us.
They are not a better side than Shrewsbury and we made them look ordinary.
if we get a decent ref,no injuries on the day,and we turn up we have surely got every chance.
Surely they have to give us a decent ref for this game. The one who was in charge of the home leg against Shrewsbury would be fine! It seems that all Stevenage have going for them is that they're a cheating load of bastards! I'm confident of an easy win here...........4:0 to us!
Surely they have to give us a decent ref for this game.
...and who do we get... the clown who officiated the Crawley game!
If there were two referees that I wouldn't want to see referee this final based on who we have had this season it would be Ian Williamson and Deadman. He was absolutely spineless against Crawley - a team that are very similar in their approach to Stevenage. God help us.
I know they have to dangle the carrot of a "big game" and promotion up the list, but surely appointing someone that has made the "select" list would be more of an example to hold up?
Don't the linesmen do a nice line in expensive paint?

Q: Attempting to set and get Cookie - Causing undefined index error
Possible Duplicate:
PHP: "Notice: Undefined variable"  and "Notice: Undefined index"

I just have a quick question about an error I received when I attempted to set and retrieve value of a cookie in PHP.
From this site and others, the following codes are the ones I am using to achieve this:
     <?php
     setcookie("edgeUser", $_POST['userName'], time()+0);
     echo $_COOKIE['edgeUser'];
     ?>

From what I understand, this will set a cookie with name="edgeUser", value="$userName" (which is provided from another page that is HTML), and will expire the moment that the user closes the session.
However, when I did run this, I got an error that apparently occurred on the "echo" line:
     Notice: Undefined index: edgeUser in C:\wamp\www\Login2.php on line **

Am I supposed to define "edgeUser" somewhere else in the code? I attempted to look into this, however, I either didn't see or didn't understand what else I am supposed to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

A: You are setting the cookie to expire instantly:
setcookie("edgeUser", $_POST['userName'], time()+0);

Set it to
setcookie("edgeUser", $_POST['userName'], time()+($howLongItWillLast));

Edit: Sudhir also correctly points out it won't be available until the next page load. From the docs:
Once the cookies have been set, they can be accessed on the next page load with the $_COOKIE or $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS arrays.

A: Once the cookies have been set, they can be accessed on the next page load with the $_COOKIE
and try setting cookie like
setcookie("edgeUser",  $_POST['userName'], time()+3600);  /* expire in 1 hour */

A: The problem (from the error), seems to be that either $_POST['userName'] or $_COOKIE['edgeUser'] (depending on what line the error is at) is undefined - that means it has not been set, and seeing that you actually set the cookie, my bet is that its the userName that is undefined. Make sure you are getting it, check with isset()
It could also be that the cookie expires before you get to echo it - in that case, use Fluffeh's solution.

A: You set it and remove it in an instant. If you want to "remove as the user closes the session" you need to use $_SESSION['edgeUser'] = $_POST['userName'];

The loss of phosphorus in exported products is a concern for all organic producers. The IMPROVE-P team compiled factsheets on meat and bone meal and recycled urban organic wastes in organic farming. They provide a comprehensive overview of the current information on these relevant nutrient sources.
Functional agrobiodiversity (FAB) uses orchard design and management to gain more natural enemies, making orchards more robust to pests. The CORE Organic Plus project EcoOrchard aims to collect existing knowledge and generate new knowledge in order to use FAB successfully in orchards.
A mixture of antibacterial plants may be able to replace antibiotics, zinc and copper for pigs with diarrhoea, according to scientists at Aarhus University.
During the first season the project Beefarm has found a total of more than 40 species of solitary bees in fruit farms with varying abundance and diversity in the individual farms. In the case of clover seed farms the project directs attention to the distribution between good and less efficient clover pollinators among the bumblebees.
IFOAM 10th EU congress in Amsterdam April 5-7 focused on how organic and agro-ecological approaches can lead future agri-food systems and be a valid tool for the EU to address political, environmental and societal challenges.
The "Routledge Handbook of Food and Nutrition Security" represents a comprehensive compilation of the current knowledge of food and nutrition security from a global perspective. The potential role of organic and agro-ecological farming to feed the world in the twenty-first century is one the themes in this new publication.
Just like the tiny yet sturdy little plant it takes the name from, the CAPSELLA project will deepen the roots of sustainability in agri-food systems by harnessing scientific and local knowledge around the theme of agro-biodiversity by making use of novel, improved and demand-driven ICT solutions.


The tech-industry giant Amazon terminated plans to build one of two new headquarter locations in Long Island City in the borough of Queens in New York City. The deal would have brought the city new offices employing 25,000 people as well as housing for those workers.
Crystal City, a Virginia suburb of Washington D.C. was selected other headquarter location, and although that deal also faces some resistance from residents, thus far Amazon has made no changes to plans for that location.
Last year, Amazon conducted a public search to select a location for their new headquarters. During a very competitive bidding process, 238 cities across the U.S., Mexico and Canada wooed the tech giant with various incentives, including massive tax breaks and cash grants.
To attract Amazon, New York had promised tax breaks of upward of $1.525 billion and $325 million in cash. Virginia offered $573 million in tax breaks and a cash grant of $23 million. In November of last year, they were announced as the winning cities.
Amazon cited opposition from local and state leaders as the primary cause of their withdrawal from their New York plans, voicing concerns about potentially hostile cooperation moving forward. For months previously, the company faced fierce opposition from city residents and several politicians from both sides of the aisle who were concerned about the effects the headquarters would have on the city. In an interview with CNN business, New York Senator Gianaris said he was concerned that the headquarters would cause large increases in housing prices, worsening the already high rates of homelessness within the city.
There was also concern that Amazon's presence would cause the closure of nearby small businesses. Additionally, the location of the headquarters themselves would have been in an area previously designated as the site of a future affordable housing project.
New York was criticized for the monetary incentives it had offered to attract the company. Critics said that the money could be better allocated to infrastructure or underfunded education and health systems. Concerns about giving the already enormously wealthy company arguably unneeded money were raised as well.
Objections to the overall ethics of the company were also voiced. Amazon has faced criticism for its treatment of workers, some of whom have reported that the pressure to reach quotas leaves them without time to take bathroom breaks. The company has been accused of pressuring employees into working while injured and failing to provide time off during holidays. Workers also aren't paid a living wage.
While Amazon has stated that it will not be seeking out a new location as a replacement, the 25,000 jobs will need either to be absorbed into other existing locations or compensated for through several smaller new locations. Other cities which were previously considered would still like to see an Amazon offices established within them in the future and are hoping that Amazon will give them further consideration.

A detour worth taking: Your mile-by-mile guide to scenic Chuckanut Drive
Originally published February 17, 2010 at 7:00 pm Updated June 23, 2013 at 1:05 pm
Need a break from Interstate 5? Explore cliff-hugging Chuckanut Drive's scenic, gastronomic and recreational wonders.
Mike McQuaide
Maybe Vancouver's Winter Olympics have you doing the old Seattle-Vancouver-Seattle shuffle. And you're looking to somehow break up the Interstate 5 fast food joint-big box store-casino-outlet mall monotony.
Or maybe you just want to while away an afternoon — possibly a whole weekend, even — by visiting someplace that's off the beaten path. If so, Chuckanut Drive, that 20-mile cliff-hugging roadway that snakes along the lower flanks of Chuckanut Mountain high above northern Puget Sound, makes for a terrific detour-slash-destination.
At Burlington, where the freeway continues north toward Bellingham, Chuckanut Drive veers hard to the northwest like it's making a getaway — escaping to greener pastures and better views, which it offers in spades: forested islands rising from the glistening waters of Samish Bay like the great backs of giant whales; eagles, herons, and ancient forests; far-off peaks forever cloaked in snow and ice. Best yet, it's a detour with a purpose, for it ends up the same place the freeway does: in Bellingham.
Here are some of the road's highlights corresponding to milepost markers, starting from the south:

It's easy to be duped by celebrities peddling false health claims. Here's how to get the facts.
Departing Seattle Times restaurant critic Providence Cicero reflects on two decades of dining out
Rhododendron Cafe — This popular café-restaurant-gallery is famous for its rotating menu, which each month features cuisine from a different part of the world. As the sign says out front, it's "Where Northwest and Ethnic Foods Meet." February is Italy month, to be followed in March by France and Western Europe, and American regional cooking in April. Recent blackboard specials included eggplant parmigiana with herbed penne and chicken saltimbocca. Next door, the Rhody Too Gallery features works by Northwest artists, as well as gifts and curios from around the world. More information: rhodycafe.com or 360-766-6667.
Chuckanut Manor — Just north of the Samish flats, where the road starts to climb, this restaurant, lounge and bed-and-breakfast has been drawing Chuckanut Drive day-trippers for close to 50 years. Steaks, seafood, a popular Sunday brunch and out-of-this-world Samish Bay sunset views are just a few of the Manor's calling cards. Also offers a two-bedroom suite that sleeps four and includes a Jacuzzi spa. Rates start at $160 per night. 360-766-6191 or www.chuckanutmanor.com.
Bat Caves Trailhead — See those cars parked on the west side of the road? They belong to folks heading up (or down) the popular Bat Caves trail, also known as the Oyster Dome trail. It's steep and rugged in parts, and densely wooded, too, but when the trail swings out into former clear-cut areas, the San Juan Island-Samish Bay views are tops. You're on Blanchard Mountain here — Chuckanut Mountain is the hump just to the north — and both are the only inland mountains that rise straight out of Puget Sound, Blanchard to over 2,200 feet in spots.
The Bat Caves themselves are a jumble of boulders at the base of a 300-foot rock face — Oyster Dome — and home to some Townsend's big-eared bats. A round-trip hike to the caves is about five miles; to the top of the Dome (highly recommended), about six miles, with 2,000 feet of elevation gain. Trails are signed, and a map is available on the Pacific Northwest Trail Web site: www.pnt.org.
The Oyster Bar on Chuckanut Drive — Once just a shack where oysters were sold to passers-by, these days the Oyster Bar is the epitome of fine dining. Clinging to the side of a wooded cliff overlooking Samish Bay, the setting is hard to beat and every table has a water view — and sunset, too, if you time it right. With a name like Oyster Bar, it's not surprising that oysters feature heavily on the menu, but they're not all. There's seafood of all kinds, steaks, as well as some surprises, e.g., pumpkin ravioli. The wine list — really a book with more than 25 pages in it — is impressive. And in fact the Oyster Bar earned Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence in 2009. Info: 360-766-6185 or www.theoysterbaronchuckanutdrive.com.
Oyster Creek Inn — After being closed for two years, this popular seafood spot located at Chuckanut Drive's hairpin turn reopened two weeks ago with new owners, Thomas and Danielle Palmer, who also own Palmer's in La Conner. Also a cliffhanger, the inn overlooks the Oyster Creek gorge, where tumbling waterfalls make like Slinkies on their way to the bay. The mostly Northwest menu is seafood-heavy with many items from next door's Taylor Shellfish Farms. 360-766-6179 or oystercreekinn.net.
Taylor Shellfish Farms — Along with growing oysters on some 1,700 acres of Samish Bay Tideland, Taylor sells seafood by the seashore. And they've been doing so on this spot for about 100 years. Visit the retail shop for locally grown clams, mussels, geoducks and oysters, as well as halibut, salmon, Dungeness crab, scallops, prawns and more. Heading north on Chuckanut Drive, the entrance is on the left, just past the Oyster Creek Inn. Follow the road down for about a half-mile to the bay. Info: 360-766-6002 or taylorshellfishfarms.com.
Vista pullout — On the west side of the road, a large pullout parking area offers spectacular views across Samish Bay to islands by the dozen, as well as Mount Erie near Anacortes and the Olympic Mountains beyond. Look for windsurfers and parasurfers down in the water. Interpretive signs here tell of Chuckanut Drive's history.
Heritage marker pullout, fossils — Another large pullout on the west side of the road offers picnic tables and spectacular views of islands and water, thus making for a nice lunch or snack spot. To see some cool fossils from the Eocene epoch (some 55 million years ago) carefully — that is, very carefully — walk across Chuckanut Drive (to the mountain side) and walk about 50 yards south to the obvious road cut. There you'll see impressions in the rock of ancient palm fronds, leaves, ferns and roots.
Clayton Beach parking lot — This large parking lot on the east side of the road provides access to the southern reaches of Larrabee State Park, which in 1915 became Washington's first state park. Then it was a mere 20 acres; these days, it's 2,700 acres with 1.5-miles of saltwater shoreline, two freshwater lakes, dozens of miles of hiking and biking trails, and a campground with nearly 100 sites. Park here for the Interurban Trail, a mostly flat rail trail that parallels Chuckanut Drive and leads six-plus miles north to Bellingham's Fairhaven district; Fragrance Lake Road, a former logging road (no cars allowed) that leads to the Lost Lake trail (about eight miles round-trip), and Clayton Beach. The last is a tucked-away oasis with tide pools, sandy beaches and Chuckanut sandstone cliffs, which make for fun scrambling. To get to Clayton beach, carefully — that is, very carefully — walk across Chuckanut Drive and hike the obvious trail south for about a half-mile.
Larrabee State Park main entrance/Fragrance Lake trail — Just north of Clayton Beach, on the west side of the road, is the main entrance to Larrabee State Park. Enter here to camp or meander the easy paths through stands of madrona trees down to water's edge, where the tidepool exploring is always fun. The Fragrance Lake trailhead and parking lot are directly across the road from the park entrance. This popular, wooded hike boasts a rain-forest feel and, after climbing for about 1,000 feet, leads to a peaceful rock-rimmed jewel of a lake. About five miles round-trip. The Interurban Trail can also be accessed from this parking lot.
Hiline Road (Cleator Road) — About a quarter-mile up Hiline Road is another access point and parking lot for the Interurban Trail. Just past the parking lot, the road (now Cleator Road) continues up for another three miles and some 1,500 feet, to the Cyrus Gates Overlook, but recent landslides have made it impassible to vehicles. Hikers and bikers still make the climb, though.
North Chuckanut Mountain Trailhead — This trailhead parking lot just inside Bellingham city limits provides access to several outdoorsy gems. Among them, the Interurban Trail, Arroyo Park, Teddy Bear Cove, the numerous trails that crisscross Chuckanut Mountain, and Woodstock Farm. Though small, Arroyo Park is like a mini rain forest, with moss-hung evergreens blocking out the sun and Chuckanut Creek racing down the middle of a deep, rocky gorge. Teddy Bear Cove, famous in former days as a clothing-optional beach, boasts a couple of secluded pocket beaches on tidal water; a small bluff above offers spectacular sunset views. Woodstock Farm, among the newest of Bellingham parks, is a heritage site high on a hillside overlooking Chuckanut Bay. The former estate of Cyrus Gates, one of Bellingham's early civic leaders, it's gradually being opened to the public. As of now, visitors can enjoy about two-thirds of a mile of walking paths through an old country estate and terrific bay and island views.
From the North Chuckanut Mountain Trailhead, both Teddy Bear Cove and Woodstock Farm require a half-mile walk south on the Interurban, then crossing and walking along Chuckanut Drive for a short stretch. A trailhead map kiosk points the way.
Chuckanut Bay Gallery and Sculpture Garden — A melding of art and nature, this unique spot features hundreds of works by Northwest artists — glass, pottery, handmade jewelry, wood crafts, prints — as well as a relaxing garden with water features, wind chimes and sculptures. Stop by for a serenity-now moment. More info: 877-734-4885 or www.chuckanutbaygallery.com.
Fairhaven Park — One of Bellingham's oldest and most popular city parks offers tennis courts, a kids' spray park and playground, lots of grassy lawns for tossing the Frisbee, as well as access to the Interurban Trail.
Fairhaven — Bellingham's southside neighborhood is the northern terminus of Chuckanut Drive.

With months still to go until the new season hits, it's time we lift ourselves out of our sartorial slump and start thinking spring. It's the perfect cure for the post-holiday doldrums or seasonal affective disorder, aka the winter blues. Since we're a little indifferent about shopping this time of year – on one hand we're in full-scale mode, and on the other, we have previously picked over merchandise we're sick and tired of browsing – what better moment than now to start curating a closet ripe with fresh spring picks so when the season rolls around, we'll be at no loss for what it has to offer. Though it may be a few moments yet before you can start sporting your new warm weather wear, you can give your closet a lively spring sprinkling with candy-colored pastels, feminine florals and ladylike skirts while you wait for the snow to clear away.
Take your look into the future with next season's trends and the buy-now, maybe even wear-now, basics to help you spring forward, sartorially speaking.


"Required, ongoing, cultural competency training for all Academy employees. Individuals who are well-trained to handle issues of race, class, gender, sexual orientation, etc. are essential to creating an atmosphere in which students feel safe at the Harkness table and the community at large. In the same way that all employees are required to participate in sexual harassment/ boundaries training, they should be required to participate in training the expands their knowledge of diversity, social consciousness, and critical self-awareness, to better identify and address issues of equity. All individuals and departments should partake in critical self-assessment, and devise a plan to develop cultural competencies over time."
You can contact the Dean of Faculty at (603) 777 3405 or the Dean of Students at (603) 777 3411.
I'll be honest: the last year or so has been a little rocky when it comes to me and Exeter. After a series of sexual assault scandals, I even wrote the first negative words I've ever written about Exeter -- Phillips Exeter Faculty Lie to Sexual Assault Victim, Tell Her She Wasn't Assaulted.
"Intellectually flaccid: There'll be bromides, clichés, and amen-corner rah-rahs in plenty. When (if) it gets beyond that, its illiberal roots and totalitarian tendencies will show."
Furthermore, as a psychologist, I'm stunned at how widespread this kind of "training" has become, without anyone making any effort to make sure not only that it is helpful... but also to make sure that it ISN'T harmful. I couldn't run a pilot intervention study on 20 people without doing that.
"What are you doing to make sure that trigger warnings, safe spaces, disinvitations and other forms of coddling/censorship aren't harmful?
Again, this is a serious issue.There is literally zero evidence that "coddling" American college students isn't harmful -- although there is plenty of evidence that it is."
Yes, this is about college, not high school, and it doesn't specifically comment on faculty (re)training and indoctrination. But the fact remains: we don't know nearly enough to be signing this petition demanding that faculty and staff participate in "required, ongoing, cultural competency training."
It would be kind of like signing a Greenpeace petition -- you feel like you're doing something good, but, really, there's a decent chance you're supporting anti-intellectualism and causing great harm to the environment.
Misinformed and anti-scentific terrorists (disguised as farmers) destroy a golden rice field -- and the hopes of millions of children to stay alive. From: Scientists Have Discovered a Way To END Malaria (And Zika, and Dengue), Saving Millions of Lives. But Will the Western World Allow It?
I forgot to include this (maybe I'll go back and add in an EDIT), but I totally should have mentioned a recent study published in Perspectives on Psychological Science. In Microaggressions: Strong Claims, Inadequate Evidence, Emory scientist Scott O. Lilienfeld points out that, though leading "microaggressions scholars" make huge claims about microaggressions -- which, of course, a mandatory cultural sensitivity training would spend a lot of time focusing on -- there is actually little (if any) evidence to support these claims.
Of course, "microaggressions scholars" like Derald Wing Sue were quick to point out that it's "oppressive" to ask for things like data and evidence, instead of relying on anecdote -- err, "lived experience."
I'm not bothered when someone addresses my friends and me as "you guys," or someone tells a "lame" joke -- pardon the expression. I mean, who cares? Not me, and I suspect not most women.
So I'm calling out Sue for "mansplaining" my lived experience, as a female-identified person.
Am I calling Sue and his colleagues microaggressors? Yes. And that's exactly the problem.
I hope that Phillips Exeter will make informed, data-driven decisions as it moves forward, rather than letting students govern based on their emotions. Because Exeter is totally my happy place, and I don't want it to start sucking.
Can you view the ads which show up to visitors, just for curiosity?
Since they seem to be associated with keywords on the page, 3 of the four I see are for books promoting microagression as a real thing, or cultural competency - ironic.
Not complaining, just amused by the irony. Keep of the good fight.
It is kind of funny/ironic... I wonder if there's a way for me to fix that.

Edmund Hillary - A Biography: The extraordinary life of the beekeeper who climbed Everest Kindle Edition

Edmund Hillary – A Biography is the story of the New Zealand beekeeper who climbed Mount Everest. A man who against expedition orders drove his tractor to the South Pole; a man honoured around the world for his pioneering climbs yet who collapsed on more than one occasion on a mountain, and a man who gave so much to Nepal yet lost his family to its mountains.
The author, Michael Gill, was a close friend of Hillary's for nearly 50 years, accompanying him on many expeditions and becoming heavily involved in Hillary's aid work building schools and hospitals in the Himalaya. During the writing of this book, Gill was granted access to a large archive of private papers and photos that were deposited in the Auckland museum after Hillary's death in 2008. Building on this unpublished material, as well as his extensive personal experience, Michael Gill profiles a man whose life was shaped by both triumph and tragedy.
Gill describes the uncertainties of the first 33 years of Hillary's life, during which time he served in the New Zealand air force during the Second World War, as well as the background to the first ascent of Mount Everest in 1953, when Hillary and Tenzing Norgay became the first climbers to reach the summit – a feat that brought the pair instant worldwide fame. He reveals the loving relationship Hillary had with his wife Louise, in part through their touching letters to each other. Her importance to him during their 22 years of marriage only underlines the horror of her death, along with that of their youngest daughter, Belinda, in a plane crash in 1975. Hillary eventually pulled out of his subsequent depression to continue his life's work in the Himalaya.
Affectionate, but scrupulously fair, in Edmund Hillary – A Biography Michael Gill has gone further than anyone before to reveal the humanity of this remarkable man.

5.0 out of 5 starsThis all really happened.
Great read, very interesting to look into the different personalities. Some got on better than others, and under very trying conditions. I think you almost had to be a loner, if not an extrovert to do the things that's people did. Hillary's wife must have been a very devoted and loving wife to allow him the freedom to carry out the type of career he did. A must read for, as it covers such a lengthy period of time, before Hillary completed his historical climb, some great background history, also including the early use of, and development of oxygen use at altitude.
5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent coverage
Excellent coverage of the very eventful Edmund Hillary a man who deserves ultimate praise for his indinuity and adventurism !
