The Lord God said: Jesus wanted to help people and minister to them.
Jesus begin to Preach repentance.
Jesus wanted to help people: Matthew 4:16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.
Jesus went through the process, student of the torah/word of God, Jesus wanted to please the Father by doing everything the right way; Being baptized, fasting 40 days and fasting nights, being led into the wilderness, so He could be tested by the devil (God said Jesus was actually tested, not tempted) and Jesus is ready to minister and help people with their needs.
Healing, Deliverance, Love, Peace, Truth, Revelation, Understanding, Covenant Relationship with the Father, so much He gave to the people.
Jesus calls His Disciples and start to teach them also and get them prepared for when He is no longer with them.
Jesus walked in Love for His Father and Love for people: The two greatest commandments.
We see that Jesus gets ready to go forward in minister and His focus on helping the people.
The first thing Jesus does is to Preach Repentance.
Preaching repentance is Love… Repentance helps us to get access to God the Father and also helps to remove the devil and demons from our lives. Repentance removes the legal rights the enemy has to attack us in certain areas.
His Love for us was PERFECT Love.
His love for us was so Pure that He wanted to come and lay His life down for us.
The Life of Jesus was to Help people.
Everything Jesus did was because of these two things, He Loved His Father and wanted to Please God, and He Loved people and wanted to help us.

Michael Schenker influenced legions of guitarists since first hitting the scene with the Scorpions and UFO in the 70s, and MSG in the 80s. And he did so by only using his first three fingers of his left hand on the fretboard.
If you don't believe me, pay close attention while viewing his solos on the recent DVD/Blu-ray Michael Schenker Fest Tokyo (also available as a CD), which saw Schenker reunite with the three singers (Gary Barden, Graham Bonnet, and Robin McAuley) he worked with in the '80s.
Below, Michael picks his five essential guitar albums.
When I heard Led Zeppelin for the first time, I knew what to do with the guitar. I started when I was nine, and it was a hit parade - I just copied things from the radio. But when this band came out it was exactly what I liked. First of all, they were all superb. Each one was the best musician in the world, especially John Bonham. He's my favourite musician, even though he's a drummer. Without John Bonham, nothing would have happened. But again, without Robert Plant nothing would have happened, either… or Jimmy Page… or John Paul Jones! They had a chemistry you couldn't make up. It happens. It's a fortunate thing.
When John Bonham died, Zeppelin were done, but they did everything they had to do. There was nothing left to do. They'll probably stay fresh forever. They sound so original and so emotional and so amazingly musical… it's just perfect.
I was only fourteen years old, didn't speak any English, and didn't know any titles. I just went by music. I always listened to a lot of music when I was young, but I never knew what they were singing about. It was always based on sound. So, Black Sabbath - for me - was just based on sound. That guitar sound [sings main riff of the song Black Sabbath] and that dramatic playing, it's the whole thing. I just love whatever they do. That song itself is such an outrageous song - especially when it came out. It was just amazing.
Deep Purple happened in a different way - I was about fourteen or fifteen, and a friend of mine and I heard about this singer singing very, very high. That made us curious. We actually chipped money together and bought that album, and he was singing so bloody high it was unbelievable. Then we discovered the band was amazing.

Washington Union Station is a major train station, transportation hub, and leisure destination in Washington, D.C. Opened in 1907, it is Amtrak's headquarters and the railroad's second-busiest station with annual ridership of just under 5 million. An intermodal facility, Union Station also serves MARC and VRE commuter rail services, the Washington Metro, intercity bus lines, and local Metrobus buses. At the height of its traffic, during World War II, as many as 200,000 passengers passed through the station in a single day. In 1988, a headhouse wing was added and the original station renovated for use as a shopping mall. Today, Union Station is one of the busiest rail facilities and shopping destinations in the United States, and is visited by over 40 million people a year.

Carnivals: Scarier than any theme park
Force 310 replied to roland303's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I personally enjoy the Zipper. It feels like you're going to die (and in a slow, painful manner), but in a sort of adrenaline-inducing way that turns out to be entertaining. I wouldn't call it the "incarnation of Satan on Earth" as much as I'd call it haphazard engineering (but in a good way). Also, for some reason, I actually find the riding cages to be comfortable. I'd rather be thrown around mercilessly while I'm in a snug cage with leather seating and some nice bars to hold onto than while I'm being held in with certain restraints found on certain other carnival rides. It might have to do with the fact that the one I've ridden was in excellent condition, but I'm not sure. Also, carnival rides don't make me nauseated at all. I'm not sure why.

^It might be due to a missing .dll file-- that's the problem I ran into with Elementary and Object Creator. If a dialog box pops up when you try to start the program that says something to the effect of "Couldn't find _____.dll", just find the missing file here, download it, and extract the .dll file to Computer\C:\Windows\System32 or wherever your Windows\System32 folder is.

Scary South Africa Amusement Park Accident!
Force 310 replied to raptorcrew2002's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well, nothing harmful apparently happened to the riders themselves, besides probably a (temporary or otherwise) strong aversion to carnival rides. The way I look at it, you're probably at more of a risk for an accident when you're driving to the carnival than when you're on the rides themselves. I prefer not to worry about it.
The "Say Something Random" Thread
Force 310 replied to robbalvey's topic in Random, Random, Random
I predict that this catastrophe will take place during the tourist season and the fun-loving people in the amusement zone will suddenly find their day of pleasure turned into one of horror. A roller coaster will rise and sway, throwing cars and occupants to the ground below. A Ferris wheel will collapse and carry many children to untimely deaths. A penny arcade will become a dungeon of doom, a canopy of a merry-go-round will plunge down upon its most innocent riders. I predict only silence will reign where there was once laughter and gaiety. The citizenry of this Colorado city will find themselves enveloped in a jelly-like substance that was once brick, concrete, steel and lumber. They will be unable to escape for it will be impossible to cut through or tear this substance. Although soft and pliable it will still retain the strength and weight formerly possessed. I predict in the outskirts the conditions will not be as serious but fleeing people will find themselves mired in roadways and hardly able to move. I predict that scientists from all over the world will be called upon to help but no one will be able to offer relief for they will not be able to conquer this terrible force, this mysterious force from outer space. Gradually, as conditions ease survivors will be evacuated but this will become a dead city and will never again be reborn. I predict this unfortunate community will be a victim of elements beyond our control and will always be remembered until the end of time. I predict the name of the city will be Denver, Colorado. The date: June 9, 1989.

Force 310 replied to woah_killa's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Very nice amount of progress so far for the limited time, and the supports are impressive. Just one issue: that one transition in the loop and the other various bumps in the track will probably sap the vehicle of much of its momentum. Is there any way to smooth those out?
I think the "official" figure is 150 degrees. So while unrealistic, that should still be fine.

Well, when I was around four, we had a table where the top surface was a mirror. The edge of the table was around eye level for me at the time, not the most optimal position for getting a good view of the surface. Since I was apparently some sort of insufferable narcissist at the time, I decided that it would be an excellent idea to try and jump up on the table to see my reflection. Table go crash, left foot go fracture. Fun times.

EDIT: Dbru beat me to it, but here's another method as well as the meanings of the other options. Double click on any vertex (blue sphere along the track), and in the dialog box that pops up, there should be a set of checkboxes at the bottom left. Relative roll -- Sets the banking relative to that of the previous vertex, useful for vertical twisting segments and certain inversions Continuous roll -- Smooths out transitions in banking, useful everywhere except for brake runs, station segments, launches, and lift hills, in which case you should leave the banking at zero and not select continuous roll Lock handles -- According to the program, it's useful for creating homogeneous elements like corkscrews and symmetrical turns, but I don't personally use it much Hope I helped.

The 3ds and integration of the track layout into said 3ds was fantastic in just about every way. The attention to detail was great, especially in the extensive queue line (which I took a tour through... very nice theming as well). Despite all of the scenery, the frame rate was good. As for the trackwork, there were a couple instances of red G's, but all in all, it was smooth and the coaster had an exciting layout. Aside from those instances of red G's, the whole experience felt almost real. What program did you use for the 3ds, by the way?

ERIC HUTCHINSON Launches "Uncharted Territory" Promotion with Microsoft and Premieres "Dear Me" Video
RJ Frometa March 14, 2017	News Leave a comment 205 Views
Today (3/14), acclaimed singer/songwriter and producer ERIC HUTCHINSON launched a multi-tiered promotion with Microsoft premiering the official music video for "Dear Me"–a song that's emblematic of ERIC HUTCHINSON's unique soulful pop and the latest single off his self-produced fourth album EASY STREET. The video features cameos from everyday people and celebrities such as Aidy Bryant and Leslie Jones of SNL, comedian Iliza Shlesinger and musician G. Love, among others, who are shown holding up messages of advice to their younger selves. Fans can click here to watch the video for "Dear Me" which HUTCHINSON also directed. The deluxe edition of EASY STREET was recently released (3/3) digitally with eight bonus mixes along with the standard version available for the first time physically on CD and Vinyl.
Starting this June, ERIC will launch his very special "UNCHARTED TERRITORY" shows taking him to the final five U.S. states he has yet to perform in: Alaska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Hawaii and Wyoming (see itinerary below). Once ERIC wraps his "UNCHARTED TERRITORY" shows he will join the club of musicians able to say they have performed in all 50 states, a career milestone he didn't realize he was so close to achieving until recently. For more information on the "Uncharted Territory" shows and to purchase tickets, visit: www.unchartedterritory2017.com.
In addition to premiering the "Dear Me" video, Microsoft, via their Microsoft Rewards program, will be running a sweepstakes with 5 lucky winners, one for each of ERIC's "Uncharted Territory" remaining 5 shows. Fans will be able to enter for a chance to win airfare, two-night hotel stay, and tickets to see ERIC perform.
"We were inspired by the underlying message of empowerment behind much of Eric's self-produced album Easy Street," says Jeff Hansen, GM of Microsoft Brand Studio. "With his single, 'Dear Me,' listeners are encouraged to be kind, trust in and believe in yourself, and Microsoft is thrilled to help spread that message far and wide."
"I started thinking about my younger self and if I had only a few minutes, what would be the most important things I've learned since then to pass along," says ERIC about the inspiration for "Dear Me." "I took the exercise of writing to my younger self really seriously and was really moved when I saw what thoughts came to the surface–forgiveness, acceptance, determination and hope. It was a healing experience to look back and realize how much I've grown up, and it was humbling to realize that all that advice to my younger self is also advice I'd give myself today."

Liverpool artist Alison Little took her innovative art workshop Rags Boutique to Retrospective at Backpool' Winter Gardens. Aunty Social, the Blackpool based Community Interest Company presented Retrospective, the Parasol Parade held at the historic Theatre and entertainment venue. There were an array of acts: flag making to film screenings, puppetry to plate spinning, penny farthings to the ultimate parade. A glorious day was much fun was had by the families which ventured into the spirit of the seaside holiday venue.
Often working around the medium of Textiles, the use of reclaimed materials is key within Alison practice. As a creative professional she has worked on a variety of arts projects including numerous public art commissions: Go Superlambanana's, Go Penguin and the Horse Parade in Cheltenham. In early 2011 she ran a medium term (6 weeks) Arts Project: Rags Boutique. In this, she secured the funding to run the project which consisted of transforming a disused Retail Unit, the Old Paint Shop (Rapid) in Renshaw Street into an exhibition space and workshop venue. This revolved around the theme of fashion from reclaimed materials and was a great success. Liverpool based, working throughout the UK and on occasions internationally. Her initial degree was in 3D Design in which she specialized in plastics as a medium. This is evident in her current practice around the use of heat-sealed technologies for re-working discarded plastic bags. Her working methods vary from hand painting, improvisation of printed digital media to traditional craft practice, all to the highest of standards. She has run workshops for varies Arts Organizations including the Liverpool Independent Art School, Bluecoat Display Centre and Makefest Manchester.
It was an amazing day where a vast collection of flags were made to brighten up the beaches of the North West coast.
Explained Alison. The day saw little creatives come in their masses. Plastic was layered, vinyl was cut, heat applied and flags were assembled to posts. There were many smiles, sequential new experiences combined with some inevitable tears. Every child had a newly created flag to add to their latest sand castle formation.
A Joy, a pleasure and a day of family fun on the Fylde shoreline.


provide top quality customer service. There's no doubt this competition benefits consumers, but it may be difficult to know when it's time to switch electric providers. Along with Cirro Energy, Power to Choose, Texas' Electric Choice education program, has some tips to help you decide.
The first obvious factor involves your contract. Some electric providers offer variable rate month-to-month plans with no minimum contract term. Others offer a fixed rate term of three months or more. Be sure to understand your contract and where you are in the contract term before making a move.
Decide if you are satisfied with your provider. Even if the answer is "yes," you may be able to get a lower rate by switching to a different plan within the same company.
Look into the electric provider's company background. Take a moment and do some online research and check into the electric companies you are considering. Check out the Better Business Bureau and also look to see if the company is strong financially, even backed by a Fortune 500 company.
Ask yourself, "Which of the electricity providers in my area offers the best variety of plans?" Learn more about fixed, variable, and indexed electricity rates so that you can choose the electricity plan and provider that best suits your needs. A variable rate can fluctuate each month; an indexed rate is tied to a specific formula; and a fixed rate will stay the same, but requires a contract. Electric providers with a variety of plans can offer more flexibility should you need to change from one plan to another.
If you are thinking of switching electricity companies, consider Cirro Energy. With a wide variety of money-saving plans, online and mobile account management, and convenient no-fee payment options, Cirro provides excellent local customer service to over 150,000 customers across the state of Texas. Visit the Cirro Energy website to learn more, or plug into the online community on Facebook and Twitter.


A strong thunderstorm in India ripped through the state of Bihar on Tuesday, 9 May 2017. The thunderstorm resulted in a 2-minute thundersquall that began at 5:43 am local time. Wind speeds reached 80 km/hour during the thundersquall. The storm reduced visibility to just 500 meters.
Lightning was another danger of this storm. Between the hours of 21:00 UTC on 8 May 2017 and 9:00 UTC on 9 May 2017, Earth Networks detected 40,052 flashes of total lightning in the area. The video below shows the path of lightning as it moved eastward across the state.
The purple strikes in the video above represent in-cloud lightning flashes. The yellow strikes represent cloud-to-ground lightning flashes. Together, these two types of flashes make up total lightning. While cloud-to-ground lightning strikes are responsible for nearly all lightning fatalities, in-cloud lightning is actually more common. We use in-cloud lightning at Earth Networks to help generate advanced severe weather warnings.
Unfortunately, the storm proved deadly for many people in the area. The timing of the storm put workers and schoolchildren in harm's way during their morning commute. When the storm was over, a total of 15 people lost their lives. Later in the day, Principal Secretary of the Disaster Management Department, Pratyaya Amrit confirmed the deaths. Two people each died in Aurangabad, Lakhisarai, Madhubani and Begusarai districts. One person each died in Patna, Nalanda, Purnia, Darbhanga, Supaul, Araria and Munger.
Fallings trees claimed five victims, wall collapses claimed two victims and lightning killed the remaining eight victims. After the announcement, Amrit issued express instruction to district magistrates to release Rs 4 lakh each as ex-gratia to the next of kin of the deceased under the calamity relief fun.
Unfortunately, severe weather is a public safety concern that can be quick and deadly. The best way for government officials and emergencies management teams to combat this danger is to be prepared and reduce lead times and down times.
The storm's high winds proved a large problem for Bihar's transportation infrastructure and operations. The winds destroyed an important bridge in Danapur. Locals used the bridge to pass between north Bihar and Patna. The storm's winds caused a portion of the pontoon bridge to float away, affecting vehicular traffic.
The wind and reduced visibility combined to delay flights. As mentioned above, the thunderstorms heavy rains and lightning reduced visibility to just 500 meters. Since the standard visibility for air operations at Patna airport is 1800 meters, this resulted in delays. These delays included morning flights of GoAir and IndiGo from New Delhi to Patna. As the storm approached Bihar from the west, the Met issued a temporary aerodrome weather warning. This warning prevented flight operations until around 7:15 am local time on Tuesday.
Another form of transportation that the storm disrupted was rail. The thunderstorm disrupted the movement of trains in some parts of Bihar. These delays, however, were not a visibility issue. Instead, rail operations faced problems when the wind dropped debris on the track.
Other damage includes damaged electric poles, overhead wires, advertising hoardings, trees, police barricades and temporary shelters.
He reported that areas with major damage included the Garikhana canal, Chajjubagh, and veterinary college areas.

How efficient is bodyweight training?
Most of the people underestimate the efficiency of bodyweight workouts. They think the only way to build strength and muscle mass is possible by lifting weights.
However, that is not true at all. You can be very strong and look as good as if you were a gym goer. Just think about gymnasts or those calisthenics guys in the street. They make one arm pull ups or muscle ups as if their own weight was nothing for them. And for that, serious strength is required for sure.
OK, you are not going to be as huge as those bodybuilders, but you will have incredible functional strength. And, that is far better than looking like a mountain.
But, with a proper diet, you can be as ripped as those guys on the cover of the fitness magazines.
What are the benefits of calisthenics strength training?
Firstly, these are natural moves to your body. If you lift weights, several exercises may put your joints and muscles in a state that is not healthy for them. Movements that we may never do in real life.
Also, most of the bodyweight calisthenics exercises are compound ones meaning more than one muscle groups have to work together to perform the movements. As a result:
The more muscles work, the more oxygen they require. Hence, these activities increase your heart rate, and that leads to cardiovascular benefits (and even fat burning).
As these are compound moves, the different muscles learn how to function together. That leads to higher and more functional strength.
Since these are natural movements, the risk of injuries is lower.
And finally, you just need cheap calisthenics equipment to do them.
To sum up, if you are skeptic about calisthenics, just try it. You will see it can be as a powerful as lifting weights (even better). I used to pump iron for many years, then I turned to it, and it was a great decision. I keep developing, it is never dull and I have never suffered any injuries yet.

Trioza (od st.grč. τρία i lat. tri: tri + lat. -osus: šećer) je vrsta jednostavnih šećera. U molekuli sadrži tri atoma ugljika. Tri su moguće vrste trioze: L-gliceraldehid i D-gliceraldehid, koji su oboje aldotrioze zbog karbonilne skupine na kraju lanca, te dihidroksiaceton, koji je ketotrioza zbog karbonilne skupine u sredini lanca.

1,000 Chinese Christians Forced Out Of Church By Communists
The Chinese Communist Party forced 1000 Christians out of this Mega-Church in China. (ScreenShot)
The Communist Party in China has secretly declared war on the Christian Community. In 2011 reports came out of China describing secret beatings, harassment, and torture of Chinese Christians by the Communist Party (which they denied). In 2014, the Communists have increased the aggression against Christians by openly destroying churches, usually giving bogus claims for their actions.
The Communist Party's latest excuse for destroying a mega-church in eastern China is so laughable and transparent that even a blind mind could see it for the lie that it is. According to an article on the National Post, the latest church was destroyed because the cross on the building was "too shiny":
One thousand Christians have been forced from their place of worship in a city in eastern China after Communist Party officials decided their 10-storey mega-church was an eyesore that needed to be destroyed.
A wave of church demolitions in Zhejiang province has raised fears that Beijing is reining in China's rapidly growing Christian community, which some leaders believe could pose a political threat.
Members of the Xiaying Holy Love congregation in Ningbo, a port city about 225 kilometres south of Shanghai, say local officials ordered them to vacate their church last month after a visiting politician was appalled by the size of the cross on its roof.
…One church member said: "They told us the cross was too shiny, too tall and too big. At first they asked us to put it on the wall. We refused. Now they have told us they will tear the church down."
The Telegraph sent in a reporter to do a story on this latest attack against Christians by the Communist Party. The reporter claims that he was harassed and even had his picture taken when his crew refused to move away from the church.
It's easy to forget as an American that the Communist do not want individuals to worship God. To the Progressive left there is no God but the Government and no one has any rights unless given to them by man.
The Communist war on Christians in China is a solemn reminder as to what the Progressives truly believe in and where those beliefs will eventually take us.

Settlement Reached in Federal Housing Lawsuit for Demand of Pregnancy Ultrasound Images
HOPE is pleased to announce joint settlements in January of 2019 in two federal lawsuits, concerning pregnancy and disability.
The first lawsuit involved multiple families in two Broward properties managed by the same company. In January 2018, HOPE was contacted by an expectant mother who lived at Sorrento Apartments in Miramar. Her lease was not being renewed because she had failed to disclose her pregnancy and had also failed to provide a doctor's note confirming the pregnancy and an ultrasound picture. HOPE investigated, and in April 2018 filed a lawsuit with the assistance of attorney Matthew Dietz.
The case was featured on the media, locally and nationally, then three additional families contacted HOPE. One family had entered into a new lease at Sorrento, and disclosed that they too were expecting. They were advised that their lease would not be renewed because Sorrento "counts heartbeats per room," and the new baby would exceed the number of people allowed per room. Further, they were denied the ability to transfer to a larger unit at that property or one at another complex.
Another family moved into Sorrento while the mother was five months pregnant. Management knew that she was pregnant and neither an ultrasound image nor doctor's note was requested. Later, however, the family was questioned regarding the pregnancy and was then informed that their lease would not be renewed. Immediately after giving birth, the mother received a written non-renewal notice.
A fourth family lived in Monterra Apartments, a sister property to Sorrento. The couple was expecting and requested to be transferred to a two-bedroom unit. They were required to provide an ultrasound image and a letter from a physician. The family provided the information, but their request was denied because a child under two did not need her or his own bedroom, according to management. Each of these additional families joined in the first lawsuit.
The second lawsuit involved a disabled man who also lived at Sorrento. The man received a lease termination notice after he made a reasonable accommodation request (which was denied) to have his niece living with him as his caretaker, following his open heart surgery. The man was questioned by an assistant property manager who asked the man to prove his surgery by showing his scars. After constant harassment about his condition, the man moved out of Sorrento and lost his independence and housing opportunity.
In negotiating the settlement, HOPE addressed Fair Housing Act issues and the residents' other housing rights. In addition to the payment of $270,000, the property owners and management will create and require non-discrimination agreements and employee acknowledgements thereof. Also, HOPE will provide fair housing training annually for five years to all staff.
Going forward, at lease signing, an applicant/tenant can only be asked to self-certify their familial status. All medical documentation previously obtained from tenants will be destroyed. Additionally, income eligible tenants may not be denied a larger unit based on a child being less than two years old.
Further, the sides agreed upon appropriate policies and practices for handling requests for reasonable accommodations and modifications, and the implementation of these policies will be reviewed. The defendant's advertisements must now reflect diversity. Inspections cannot be: random, more often than annually, nor disguised as pest control work. Residents cannot be evicted nor denied lease renewal without good cause, and simple housekeeping and minor certification/recertification disclosure issues will not constitute good cause.
Often, residents in affordable housing developments are reluctant to challenge rules and practices of providers out of fear of losing their homes. The affordable housing supply in South Florida hardly meets the need, therefore the opportunities are precious. Loss of these opportunities would mean homelessness for many. We applaud the courage and tenacity of the families who came forward to take a stand to effectuate necessary change.

What is Trademark Registration?
In Australia, there are two concurrent trade mark systems; one established through use, under common law, the other through registration under the Trade Marks Act 1995.
To secure registration in Australia, an application is filed for your trade mark in respect of your particular goods and/or services. Your application is examined, in respect of the registrability of your mark and prior similar marks, together with other formalities. Once the matters raised on examination are addressed, the accepted application is then advertised for a three month opposition period. However, most marks are not opposed and are simply registered, after the expiry of the opposition period and upon payment of the registration fee. Registered trade marks are then renewable every ten years.
Your trade mark can also be registered overseas. In fact, some countries do not have common law rights, as such. Consequently, registration overseas is strongly advisable in such countries, where you are going to use your trade mark. There are two systems for overseas registration; the first is filing an International Application under the Madrid Protocol and designating the countries you require protection for. The other, is filing National applications in each country which you require protection in. Most countries overseas have a similar registration process to us here, in Australia. That is there is usually some form of examination, opposition period and then, registration. There are many factors to consider with overseas protection, which will be the subject of another article or if you would like further information, please do not hesitate to email Kerry on knewcomb@bigpond.net.au .
You as the owner of a registered trade mark have an exclusive right to use your registered trade mark, in connection with your registered goods and/or services throughout Australia.
You as the owner of a registered trade mark have an exclusive right to allow others to use your registered trade mark, in connection with your registered goods and/or services throughout Australia.
You as the owner of a registered trade mark have an exclusive right to prevent others from using your registered trade mark or a deceptively similar mark, in connection with your registered goods and/or services (or similar goods and/or services) throughout Australia.
These rights are enforceable by merely establishing that you are the registered owner of the mark; it is not necessary to establish a reputation.
This is in stark contrast to a common law action for passing off where reputation amongst a number of others elements are required to be proved.
The filing of an application provides a filing date, which becomes the application date and blocks subsequent applications.
Filing an application places competitors on notice of your claim to ownership and may act as a deterrent to your competitors using and registering the mark.
A registered trade mark is often one of the most valuable assets of a business and can be included in a business valuation.
Registration of trade marks are often a necessary requirement for franchising and licensing of a business.
Registration is a defence against infringing other trade mark registrations.

Brilliant video! This is so next on my bucket list!


This year, Nagarjuna scored a decent hit with the critically acclaimed multi-starrer, Oopiri, which also featured Karthi. If the ongoing reports are anything to go by, Nagarjuna has okayed yet another multi-starrer, which will have young hero Nikhil in a crucial role. The duo are likely to share screen space in a forthcoming film to be directed by Chandu Mondeti who is hot on the heels, with the success of Premam.
Nagarjuna has put all his energies on his upcoming mythological period drama Om Namo Venkatesaya. The prestigious film is directed by iconic director K. Raghavendra Rao. As this is all set for a grand release on February 10th, Nag is said to have signed his next film with director Chandu. Chandu who is self-proclaimed fan of Nagarjuna, has got a golden chance to direct Nag himself after successfully delivering Premam. Now Chandu is going to rope in his best friend Nikhil onto the board to which Nag too said to have given his nod.
If all goes per the plans, the film will roll onto floors after Nag and Nikhil's respective commitments. The film is expected to take off after Nag's Om Namo Venkatesaya hits the screens on Feb 10th. Yet to be titled, the film is being produced by Annapurna Studios. Meanwhile, Nag's another commitment Bangarraju with Kalyan Krishna too is on cards. Since Kalyan is working with Naga Chaitanya presently, Bangarraju will go onto floors after this.
The reports further reveal that this crazy multi-starrer will feature Ramya Krishna and either Manjima Mohan or Mehreen Kaur as the female leads. Let's wait for an official announcement in this regard.

Exhibition "Soshana"
National Bank of Serbia, January 2009
http://www.nbs.rs/izlozbe/english/20/20_6/20090119-sosana.html
Opening of the solo exhibition of the Austrian artist Soshana on 19 January represents the first in a series of cultural events to mark the 125th anniversary of setting up the first counter at the National Bank of Serbia.
This exhibition was organized at the initiative of a private gallery Dali Art with the support of the Austrian Cultural Forum, an Austrian government agency for promotion of international cultural exchange.
His Excellency the Ambassador of Austria, Mr. Clemens Koja made the opening speech and pointed to specific features and the significance of Soshana's artistic achievement. Visitors were then addressed by His Excellency Minister of Culture of the Republic of Serbia, Mr. Nebojsa Bradic who said that by hosting this international exhibition, the Exhibition Hall in the NBS building has become a guardian of the cultural life of the Serbian capital now that six big museums in Belgrade are undergoing extensive reconstruction.
Soshana was born as Susanne Schüler in Vienna on 1 September 1927 to a middle-class Jewish family. She took her artistic name Soshana, which translates as "Lily" in the Hebrew language, after her first big exhibition in Havana in 1948. She has been known as a cosmopolitan and a great artist who lived and created all across the globe, and as a contemporary and a friend to the giants of the 20th century art world. Fleeing Western civilization and seeking inspiration, she left Paris to travel through Mexico, China, India and Japan and study Eastern culture and art techniques – aquarelle and calligraphy. During the 1970s she lived in New York, the new world art capital, and made friends with the leading artists of the New York art scene. She returned to Austria in 1985 where she still lives.
Her paintings are exhibited in modern art museums of the world's major cities and are part of the most valuable art collections, such as that of the Austrian central bank and the Guggenheim Collection.
This exhibition will be open to the public on working days from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. until 20 February 2009.
A guided tour by the curator of the exhibition will be held at 6 p.m. on Thursday, 29 January 2009.

Editing a Doc Sample Reel
This spring we'll be editing a sample reel for A Paradise Lost, a documentary in progress by Laurie Sumiye.
I often get approached to help people edit sample reels for documentary films in progress, usually to show potential funders as part of a grant application. Editing sample reels is very different than editing a film trailer, where the film is at the fine cut stage, if not already completed, and so you clearly know what the film is about. Editing a sample reel is also different than cutting a crowdsourcing video for a platform like Kickstarter, IndieGoGo or GoFundMe, where there is usually a direct on-camera appeal from the filmmaker included.
Editing a sample reel is often the very first editing that's being done on a project, and hence the first time that editor and director are conceiving how the material that's been filmed should be presented to the audience. Making those first 2-3 edits in the first sequence on a blank timeline are often the most demanding edits I will make.
So there is an exercise I will often assign to the director to create an easier starting point, which I call "Best 25 Things." Before we meet to screen footage and begin editing, I will ask the director to put together a rough sequence of their favorite 25 things that they have in their material for their film. It can be a single shot that they think is stunningly beautiful, or a particularly moving interview soundbite, an amazing piece of archival film footage or a "I can't believe we got this on film" moment of cinema vérité footage. I want to see the best 25 things in the pile of footage so far. And so the director and I will begin screening the best of the best footage, and then frame the sample reel around those best moments.
It might seem obvious to show potential funders your very best material, yet filmmakers at the sample reel stage are often drowning in footage and research and facts. They "can't see the forest for the trees." The process of selecting the best 25 things forces them to break out of the narrative and look at their footage in a completely different way, letting go of issues like story chronology, or how difficult it was to get a particular shot or anything but the raw emotional quality of the material on screen.
Beginning the sample reel edit by screening the best 25 things also allows me as editor to hit the ground running. Usually at this stage there's very limited time and money, and the director and I are expected to create a sample that captures the essence of the story and creates excitement for the project in just a few days. I don't really have time to look at all the footage, so I'm relying on the director's knowledge of the material, and trusting that the essential truth of the story can be conveyed with many of the best 25 things. As I watch the best 25 things with the director, I am prompted to ask her questions: "Do you have more footage like this?" "What does he mean when he says that?" "What happened in the scene after the part that you showed me?" Then we will likely screen a bit more footage beyond the best 25. In the conversation that takes place, the director and I begin to develop a plan, possibly even a rough script, for how we will edit the sample reel.
In the next blog, I will list five tips for editing a successful documentary sample reel. If you've had great success with a sample reel and want to share a tip, I would love to hear from you.

Ah, big songs about big women.
I know I'm late to the party, but as far as "fat girl" songs go, let's not forget Queen's "Fat Bottomed Girls," the gold-standard of fat-girl songs.
she was such a naughty nanny"
Did you listen to the whole thing, Will? If you only listened to the firt minute or so, you missed it. 1:19 is when the song "really" starts.
I don't think this tops Queen, but it does belong in a list somewhere with them, "Big Bottom" by Spinal Tap, "Baby Got Back", etc..

Her resume was the best of the bunch. And she aced the interview. But how well do you really know the applicant you're about to hire? Mistakes are costly, so getting a complete picture of an applicant before you make an offer is critical. References can provide feedback that you probably won't find in a resume or discover during an interview. To have a conversation that will yield real insight, make your questions count. Here's how.
Okay, first things first. Has the person you're considering for employment been completely honest with you? Checking references can help you figure that out. After you introduce yourself and confirm who you're talking to, you'll want to verify information that your candidate has provided—job role, start and stop dates, and, if you're speaking with a manager, salary. You'll also want to understand if you're speaking with a manager, a peer, or a direct report.
Are the job title and job description I have accurate?
Were you involved in the candidate's hiring?
Would you rehire the candidate if the opportunity arose?
A lot of people conducting reference checks stop with the basics. And that's too bad. Because your real goal during any reference check is to learn as much as you can about the candidate's skills and abilities, strengths and weaknesses, and whether or not this candidate will be a good fit for the job, the team, the department, and your organization.
Dig a little deeper into your candidate's past performance by using behavioral questions. Verifying what the candidate accomplished is important, but you'll also want to understand how she accomplished it. Your questions will vary, of course, depending on the role you're hiring for, but a good rule of thumb is to pose a few questions that require more than a yes or no answer.
Here are five ways you can ask questions that will reveal new insights about your potential hire. Always try to be as job-specific as possible. And remember, give the reference time to respond!
Want to know if a marketing candidate gets along well with others?
Ask how the candidate was able to collaborate successfully with her peers.
Want to know if a customer-service candidate is even-tempered?
Ask how he typically handled an angry customer.
Want to know if a project manager candidate can manage conflict?
Ask how a candidate helped team members come to agreement.
Want to know if a nursing candidate has a positive attitude?
Ask how the candidate communicated with a difficult patient or family members.
Want to know if a candidate for sales VP is a good mentor?
Ask how she helped a direct report overcome a sales hurdle.
3. Don't forget to explore an applicant's soft skills.
You likely know what hard skills you're looking for in a candidate. And you can find evidence of those hard skills on a resume or during an interview. But figuring out whether or not a candidate has the right soft skills to thrive in a specific role isn't always as straightforward. That's where references can help—if you ask the right questions.
Developing questions for each of those areas might feel like a lot of work, especially when you begin to apply job-specific filters to each.
Our professionally developed surveys and intelligent software tools can help you speed this process (just sayin'), but if you need to forge ahead on your own, here are some key questions to consider.
Is the candidate dependable, consistent, and responsible?
Does the candidate pay attention to details and deliver high-quality results?
Does the candidate stay up-to-date with industry changes or new technologies?
Does the candidate listen to others and ask the right questions when needed?
Is the candidate able to establish effective working relationships?
Can the candidate communicate information and ideas in a way that others can clearly understand (a critical skill for many roles—especially caregivers, but also a product manager)?
Is the candidate able to prioritize work and meet deadlines?
Does the candidate know when to escalate a problem?
How well does the candidate accept feedback without getting defensive?
Does the candidate treat others with respect?
How effectively does the candidate build strong and diverse teams?
Does the candidate guide direct reports by setting reasonable goals and objectives?
For an interesting perspective on what a venture capital consultant calls "extreme referencing" for leadership positions, check out this post.
You want to hire individuals who stay the course. To do that you need to learn what you can about a candidate's strengths, and, let's be honest, no one is perfect – we all have areas we can improve. So ask. You'll make onboarding far more successful if you already know what strengths you can count on and what areas of improvement you need to tackle in a professional development plan.
What do you think are this candidate's greatest strengths?
Reference questions, like interview questions, should be free from bias. The best way to achieve that goal is to make sure your questions focus on job-related behaviors and that the answers are based on the reference's experience observing or working with the applicant. Consistency is important, as well. Ask the same questions of every reference.
6. Change your mindset from affirmation to information.
Rather than thinking about reference checking as a final confirmation of everything you've learned about a candidate, use reference checking as an earlier step to inform your hiring process. Reference check top finalists and share insights with hiring managers who can then ask more informed questions.
We know that a lot of work goes into a great hire. SkillSurvey's library of hundreds of job-specific surveys created by our team of I/O psychologists can help you get real, validated feedback on the behaviors that correlate with job success. Each survey asks references to rate the candidate's performance across a range of competency areas. Reference feedback is aggregated into a report, with feedback from managers broken out separately from that of co-workers.
References can provide essential insights to help you make informed decisions and put the right people to work for your organization. So make sure you're getting the right information by making every questions count.

The red-bellied black snake is a species of elapid snake native to eastern Australia. Though its venom is capable of causing significant morbidity, a bite from it is not generally fatal and is less venomous than other Australian Elapid snakes. It is common in woodlands, forests and swamplands of eastern Australia. It is one of Australia's best-known snakes, as it is common in urban areas along the eastern coast of Australia. It has an average total length of 1.5 to 2 metres .

BLACK HOUSTON'S GROWTH & MIGRATION
Houston has experienced success maintaining a viable urban core largely due to its ability to diversify its economy from relying solely on energy. Another major factor is its ability to annex its surrounding suburbs keeping its tax base wealthy and slowing middle class flight which prevented the rapid decay of the cities core.
The Houston area geography is often characterized and referenced according to its freeways. The I-610 loop is its "inner loop" and the Beltway can be described as its "outer loop". Most of pre WWII Houston existed within what is now the 610 loop. Suburbs began to spring up outside the loop and after the civil rights era much of the area inside the loop was being abandoned by both Black and White working and middle class residents looking to move further out. These sprawling moving patterns prompted the construction of the Beltway.
African Americans in Houston are in search of new places to live at higher rates than the metropolitan area as a whole. Twenty three percent of African Americans in Houston moved from 2006 to 2007. Seventy one percent came from a different county, meaning they either relocated from outside the Houston area or left Harris County for the surrounding Fort Bend, Brazoria and Montgomery counties.

Unity to Modo and Back Again!
I finally took the plunge into the Modo universe, having been aware of it's existence for some time and as an explorer of new technologies and software I couldn't resist, my curiosity got the better of me damn it!
I've been working on the project for some time now, I wanted to design and model the interior of a flat, using the flat I live in now for reference, my aim was to model everything in Modo and then import the scene into Unity, using Unity's rendering and post processing effects to bring the scene to life.
Each object and prop had been UV'ed and saved as .lxo files. I really like that Unity uses native files as saving an edit to a model in Modo would automatically reimport that model in Unity to reflect the change, which is great because it happens almost instantly and this is amazing for iterating.
The scene is actually lightmapped in Unity using Directional lightmaps with a Max atlas size of 4096 x 4096.
I found the workflow between both packages relatively easy, as long as you save .lxo files to your Unity assets folder inside your project then all good.
Moving on to texturing, I decided to use the library of Substance materials available on the Unity Asset Store, I hadn't used Substance materials before in what I consider a proper project, I had only messed around with them but they add a great deal of realism and depth to your models and I wanted to explore that more.

The Disaster Charter at 20
Posted by: robynhaigh, Posted on: 20 October 2020 - Categories: Earth from space, Earth observation, International, Satellites
Credit: Disaster Charter
The International Charter: Space and Major Disasters, better known as the Disaster Charter, was formed on 20 October 2000 by the European Space Agency (ESA), French Space Agency (CNES) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), with the UK joining in 2005. The goal is to provide free data from satellites to aid disaster response around the world.
20 years on, the Charter has 17 members and 61 contributing satellites, supporting people in need in 126 countries. In total the Charter has been activated over 670 times – at no cost to those who need it.
What is the Disaster Charter?
The Disaster Charter is a worldwide collaboration, making satellite data available to help with disaster management.
It helps us respond to major natural and human-made disasters, with the aim of saving lives and livelihoods. Information derived from satellite data sourced via the Charter assists the coordination of resources and expertise for rapid response in major disaster situations, helping civil protection authorities and the international humanitarian community.
The Charter can be activated by authorised users from 126 countries and the UN as a cooperating body. All countries can ask an authorised country to activate it on their behalf, meaning the Charter can be used by any country in need, anywhere in the world. Any country can also apply to become an authorised user under the Charters universal access initiative.
What impact has the Charter had?
On average, the Charter is activated weekly, covering disasters from earthquakes and volcanoes to oil spills. In August this year, the Disaster Charter was activated following the devastating industrial explosion in Beirut, Lebanon. Satellite images of the region helped determine the level of damage and aided the search for safe routes for rescue teams. The Charter was also called upon during the Australian wildfires earlier this year when over a million hectares were alight, helping over 3000 firefighters pinpoint where assistance was needed most.

What happens when disaster strikes?
When a disaster strikes, an Authorised User (AU) activates the Charter, kick-starting an international effort. In some cases, co-operating bodies and organisations may request further data. Next, an On-Duty Operator, who is available 24 hours a day, verifies the activation and forwards it to an Emergency On-Call Officer (ECO). The ECO then prepares by identifying available satellites and which of those would be the best ones to use based on the disaster type and circumstances. This plan is submitted to the relevant satellite operators, who task their satellites accordingly.

Then, a Project Manager (PM), an expert in data handling, is assigned by the Executive Secretariat to assist the AU. The PM coordinates the delivery of maps from the Value Added Providers - they take the data provided by member agencies and interpret this, assessing what they see from the satellites; for example, in a flood they can monitor and track the change in flood extent and water levels. Finally, these maps are then given to the end-user to plan their disaster management and relief efforts.
Disaster Charter and the UK
Since 2005 the UK has contributed satellite imagery and operations to the Charter through the DMC Constellation, operated by Airbus Defence and Space Limited. The UK team at Airbus performs ECO duties and jumps into action to task these UK missions whenever required.
The UK has activated the Charter on multiple occasions, the last time in 2014 when major floods hit the south of England, necessitating the evacuation of more than 400 homes. The satellite imagery of the area assisted the Environment Agency in determining flood extent and the height of the water levels over large areas, resulting in the issuing of relevant warnings as well as planning and preparation for any rescues.

Various projects funded through the UK Space Agency's International Partnership Programme (IPP) – all of which develop space-based solutions to help developing countries – have supported Disaster Charter work. These include rapid processing of satellite images of South Pacific islands to map damage to critical infrastructure caused by Cyclone Harold (CommonSensing), and using satellite communications tools to trace people following disasters in the Philippines (Inmarsat).
The Disaster Charter is an invaluable international tool that frequently provides lifesaving information and data. So spread the word and be assured that, when the next disaster hits, there are globally connected teams working together and using satellites to save lives.

Q: How can I follow OOP base concepts with QObject derived class instance? Hi, all... I'm working with Qt not for a long time, but recently a thought came to my mind.
QObject has public function children() and a few other ones, which return pointer to a child object(s).
So any client of custom class can break encapsulation.

*

*How can I protect my code from such barbaric treatment?

*Why did Qt developers leave such functionality in public section?
What purpose did they try to achieve?
The only one argument about such functions I can imagine is connected with 'garbage collection' in Qt (when one delete parent QObject derived class instance all children instances are automatically deleted). But I think it could be done with Qt's metaObject system (I'm not sure in the mechanism, however, access to child objets shouldn't be public, on my opinion).

*

*Also, consider situation when someone attempts to use child object in separate thread, which is forbidden in Qt... but I don't see any restrictions in light of using QObject::children().

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
further explanation according to some comments:
While you have access with QObject::children() to private members of the class, e.g.
class MyClass: public QWidget{ private: QLabel* m_lbl1; };
...
MyClass* p = new MyClass;
QLabel* pLbl = p->findChild<QLabel>();

there is no need to declare member m_lbl1 as private one:
class MyClass: public QWidget{ public: QLabel* m_lbl1; };

and it's very bad. because if you have at least 10^5 lines of code in your solution and more that 1 developer, sooner or later someone can manually change state of any child member of MyClass and you can achieve any kind of bug (e.g. behavior which is not possible according to MyClass implementation).
@Merlin069: is pImpl a common approach in Qt's development?

A: The Qt object's parent system is very useful, but I think I understand what you're getting it.
For example, assuming all objects declared here are derived from QObject:-
class MyClass : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT

    private:
        SomeOtherClass* m_pOtherClass = nullptr; // C++ 11 initialisation
};

In the constructor of MyClass...
m_pOtherClass = new SomeOtherClass(this);

So, we now have the encapsulated SomeOtherClass object, but as it's parent is MyClass, it's also accessible via the function children() from MyClass.
If you want encapsulation here, then you can sacrifice using the parent / child hierarchy and declare SomeOtherClass with a NULL parent.
However, if you consider the reason for Qt's Object Trees, as @deGoot mentions, then it provides such a useful system whose benefits outweigh breaking the encapsulation.
Now, if we really want to maintain encapsulation and use the QObject parenting system we can do so by using a Private Implementation (pimpl), which you can read about here. Also, internally, Qt uses this too.


Implementing UIs is often a tedious task. To address this, UI Builders have been proposed to support the description of widgets, their location, and their logic. A missing aspect of UI Builders is however the ability to reuse and compose widget logic. In our experience, this leads to a significant amount of duplication in UI code. To address this issue, we built Spec: a UIBuilder for Pharo with a focus on reuse. With Spec, widget properties are defined declaratively and attached to specific classes known as composable classes. A composable class defines its own widget description as well as the model-widget bridge and widget interaction logic. This paper presents Spec, showing how it enables seamless reuse of widgets and how these can be customized. After presenting Spec and its implementation, we discuss how its use in Pharo 2.0 has cut in half the amount of lines of code of six of its tools, mostly through reuse. This shows that Spec meets its goals of allowing reuse and composition of widget logic.

After setting off a firestorm of reports, commentary, and even a spoof with the video testimonial in which he bashed the show that made him a star, Two and a Half Men's Angus T. Jones has issued a statement responding to the controversy. Although he doesn't take back anything he said, he does apologize to everyone involved in the show.
When the video surfaced yesterday in which Jones calls the show "filth" and declares it's the work of "the enemy" and not something he wants to be a part of, it shocked everyone who saw it. The comments came as part of a religious testimony the star recorded for Forerunner Christian Church and make it clear he has come to the conclusion that his religion and his career are at odds.
Without qualification, I am grateful to and have the highest regard and respect for all of the wonderful people on Two and Half Men with whom I have worked over the past ten years and who have become an extension of my family. Chuck Lorre, Peter Roth and many others at Warner Bros. and CBS are responsible for what has been one of the most significant experiences in my life to date. I thank them for the opportunity they have given and continue to give me and the help and guidance I have and expect to continue to receive from them.
It sounds less like Jones has had a change of heart than that he's realized he may have just offended the people who write his very hefty paychecks, as well as the people he'll have to work with when he returns to the show midseason. Still, the apology does sound sincere, and Jones' youth may well earn him forgiveness.


It seems the Olympics are in full swing, if it weren't for the fact that I am a social media junkie I would be totally clueless about these happenings. Remember I am the anti-sports gal. Hell, it takes a certain level of skill to fail gym at least one semester every year of high school! Most people could pass physical education, but not me. Needless to say I avoid sports in any and all forms, don't want to play em, and don't want to watch em.
However I noticed that the name Gabrielle Douglas kept coming up in all my social media feeds, so naturally being a curious gal, I had to find out what the hubbub was all about. Oh my! That girl has skills, skills and more skills. Such talent, such poise, only 16 years old and she is African American!
I did some further looking around and discovered that Gabrielle's whole damn family is amazing! As a mother I am in awe of her mother Natalie, it takes a lot of trust and faith to let your 14 year old daughter move to Iowa to pursue her passion and dreams especially when it involves living with people you don't really know. There is also the fact that Gabrielle is a very Black girl and Iowa is a pretty white state and the host family was also white, yet Gabrielle clearly is passionate about gymnastics.
In further reading today, this piece in the Times, gave me the impression that while Gabrielle always believed in her dreams, others didn't. "Just five months ago, Martha Karolyi, the coordinator of the women's national team, did not think Douglas had what it took to be an Olympian. She lacked confidence and focus, Karolyi said, even as recently as a few weeks ago." I think it's safe to say that we are all glad that Gabrielle wasn't hearing that noise.
When you are the first to break in, that accomplishment needs to be noted. When we have at least four Gabby's we can stop talking about that pesky difference that makes some feel uncomfortable. There is also the fact that gymnastics is not a sport generally for the working class or those of color, it takes a lot of time and a lot of cash. Considering that Natalie Hawkins, Gabby's mom is a debt collector and she has other kids, I am sure time and spare cash weren't something she was just rolling in. Gymnastics is also a very white activity, so I can only imagine what Gabby went through when it became clear that gymnastics wasn't simply time filler after school but something with real promise. I imagine even at 16 she has had to endure snide comments and questioning looks by people who should be allies and supporters.
So no, at this time Gabrielle Douglas is an African American Olympian and if that troubles you, then you need to ask yourself why.

Lucile Doll Wise 43-7
December 19, 2016 Bobbi Nagle
Lucile Wise, a former member of the Women Airforce Service Pilots, said "I used to fly a twin-engine airplane. Our mission was to replace men in the Air Force so they could go overseas during World War II. We were restricted to the continental U.S. and we mostly ferried aircraft."
She said it was a very exciting time.
"We all learned to fly," she said. "We were able to serve our country by doing something we loved. When the war was over, we were glad it was fought so well. But I remember being disappointed when the men came back. I wanted to stay in the WASP."

Q: `new` without `delete` on same variable in Javascript Is it OK to do this?:
function mygetTime()
{
    var d = new Date();
    return(d.getTime());
}

function wasteSomeMemory()
{
    var temp;
    for(var count = 0; count < 1000000; count += 1)
    {
        temp = mygetTime();
    }
}

Will calling wasteSomeMemory() cause a memory leak?
What about this:
function wasteSomeMemory2()
{
    var temp;
    for(var count = 0; count < 1000000; count += 1)
    {
        temp = new Date();
    }
}

Will calling wasteSomeMemory2() cause a memory leak? Should I use delete temp; at the end of the for-loop?
function wasteSomeMemory2()
{
    var temp;
    for(var count = 0; count < 1000000; count += 1)
    {
        temp = new Date();
        delete temp;
    }
}

A: The short answer is no.
The long answer is we hope to god the browses garbage collector picks this up.

A: new and delete have nothing whatsoever to do with each other in JavaScript (despite their confusing similarity to completely different constructs in other languages). Don't worry about creating objects (new) without explicitly cleaning them up, that's the garbage collector's job.
new is for creating objects via constructor functions. delete, on the other hand, is for removing properties from objects. It has nothing to do with removing an object from memory, other than as a side effect (e.g., if the only outstanding reference to that object was from the property that you removed).
Example of correct use of delete:
var obj = {};
obj.foo = "bar"; // Now `obj` has a property called `foo`
delete obj.foo;  // Now it doesn't

Your getmyTime function is perfectly fine. The Date object will become eligible to be reclaimed immediately upon function return (whether it is reclaimed is completely down to the implementation). It does not cause a memory leak, except on a buggy implementation.
Your wasteSomeMemory2 similarly doesn't cause a memory leak, and in fact you can't call delete temp; — you can only delete properties, not vars.

There are times when you have to help the garbage collector out, but those usually don't (in my experience) have to do with object properties and so don't involve delete. They only really come up when you're creating function instances (which is fairly often, if you're setting up event handlers or timer functions, etc.). For instance, consider:
function foo() {
    var listOfThings = /* ...get a list of things... */;

    // ...do something with `listOfThings`...

    setInterval(function() {
       // ...do something that *doesn't* need `listOfThings`...
    }, 1000);
}

Because your anonymous function you've assigned to a timer via setInterval will survive the function call, it keeps a live reference to everything that was in-scope during that function call (whether it uses it or not). This keeps the list of things that listOfThings points to in memory. If the timer function doesn't need that list, that's a concern. You can release the list that listOfThings points to if you know that the function doesn't need it, by assigning undefined or null or whatever to listOfThings when you're done with it:
function foo() {

    var listOfThings = /* ...get a list of things... */;

    // ...do something with `listOfThings`...

    listOfThings = undefined; // Done with it           <== The new bit

    setInterval(function() {
       // ...do something that *doesn't* need `listOfThings`...
    }, 1000);
}

The same is true for event handler functions, etc. Whenever you create a function, it "closes over" (keeps a live reference to) anything in scope where it was defined. So if you don't need those things, you can ensure they're not kept in memory by clearing the references to them. (More: Closures are not complicated)
