Born in Samoa, Robbie moved to New Zealand in 1980, where he discovered he had a talent for making his schoolmates laugh. He has since gone on to have a varied and wide career as one of our best known Polynesian performers. Robbie has starred on stage and screen, as well as being a member of the "Naked Samoans" comedy troupe. His many credits include lead roles in award winning movies "Sione's Wedding" and "The Lord of the Rings. Robbie then spent 3yrs appearing on our favourite NZ soap Shortland Street and is now dividing his time between NZ and Australia while he films the hugely successful television series 'Wentworth'. He is an experienced MC and Host and any time he has left he spends hanging out with his kids.
"Robbie was a last minute alteration to our event when our original MC went sick. He had a few hours to learn a comprehensive script which he performed with humour and enthusiasm. He interacted well with the audience, adapting to what was a difficult audience of varying ages. His prompt acceptance of the booking made what could have been a stressful situation for us much easier." Ali Glover, Registered Master Builders Association of NZ Inc.

Q: How to run multiple selenium scripts from Django? I've currently got two separate scripts that are using Selenium, one scrapes website A and returns a result, the other scrapes website B and returns a result. I would like to run the two scripts upon a button being clicked on my Django webpage. As far as I understand I should run my selenium scripts within a function in my views.py file of my Django project.
However, I am unclear of how I should do this, aside from pasting all the code from my selenium scripts into the views.py file which seems like quite a messy way to do it. Should I move my selenium scripts into my Django project and convert them to classes which can then be called from my views.py file as so:
def index(request):
    webpage_A = WebPageA() #This would be the name of the class where the first webscraper is run from

Apologies for the noob question, hoping someone can point me in the right direction in terms of best practice.

About: Chris O'Sullivan
dbo:Person/weight
Chris O'Sullivan (born May 15, 1974) is a retired American professional ice hockey player who played briefly in the NHL with the Calgary Flames, Vancouver Canucks, and Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. He played defense and shot left-handed.A top prospect out of high school, O'Sullivan was drafted by the Calgary Flames in the 2nd round, 30th overall in the 1992 NHL Entry Draft. After being drafted O'Sullivan chose to play in the college ranks and played with the Boston University Terriers for 4 years. O'Sullivan missed the majority of his freshman year (1992–1993) after suffering a neck injury during a game versus Boston College. O'Sullivan eventually recovered and became one of the top defensive players in the nation. His most successful season was during the 1994–1995 season when he led the Terriers in scoring with 56 points in 40 games and eventually leading the Terriers to a national championship in 1995, in which he was named the Most Outstanding Player.After college O'Sullivan turned pro and split time with the Flames and their minor league affiliate Saint John Flames for the next 3 years. The 1996–1997 season would turn out to be O'Sullivan's longest stint in the NHL, playing in 27 games and scoring 10 points. Towards the end of the 1998–1999 season O'Sullivan was traded to the New York Rangers. He played 10 games with the Rangers minor league affiliate Hartford Wolf Pack before being released by the Rangers at the end of the season.For the 1999–2000 season O'Sullivan was signed by the Vancouver Canucks. He played the majority of the season with the Syracuse Crunch while also playing 11 games with the Canucks. After the season, he was again released and picked up by the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. He played the whole 2000–2001 season with the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks, scoring 49 points in 60 games. For the 2001–2002 season O'Sullivan played overseas in Switzerland with the Kloten Flyers.After 1 season in Switzerland O'Sullivan returned to the Mighty Ducks for the 2002–2003 season. After only 2 games with the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim and 27 games with the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks O'Sullivan suffered another neck injury. O'Sullivan officially retired from hockey in September 2003.

Elon Musk and Craig Wright working together to improve the world? Now there's a thought
Business 26 August 2021
Jon Southurst
Elon Musk at a CoinGeek conference? Hopefully that would be just the start of things. Dr. Craig S. Wright has invited the entrepreneur to join him and work together, noting several parallels in their careers.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRLpVmi14qs
Video can't be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Open Invitation for Elon Musk to attend CoinGeek New York from Dr Craig Wright (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRLpVmi14qs)
"I have a proposition for you," Dr. Wright said in a video message addressed personally to Musk. He invited him to attend the event and join other Bitcoiners in working together, adding "we both acknowledge that blockchain technology is capable of changing the world and improving the lives of many people."
Many businesses are already working with BSV, using it to store and secure their valuable data. As the world's largest public blockchain by all major utility metrics including data storage and daily transaction volume, scaling ability and average block size, BSV continues to serve their needs well. Musk's businesses (including both those we know and the ones he hasn't revealed yet) could certainly benefit from it.
"You and I both have a long history in innovation, particularly around payments," Dr. Wright said in the video invitation. Most people might not see payments as an exciting topic, or a field in need of radical change, but a few recognized the difference it could make to people's lives if money could change hands more easily. Two of those people were Musk and Wright.
No one is suggesting Elon Musk and Craig Wright are similar in every way; they are very different people. There are, however, some parallels in their careers that make them stand out from others. Both have devoted their lives to advancing new and often untested technologies, engaging in work that often forces them to break from their focus to face detractors.
"More personally, we've both had to deal with ill-informed and vicious critics. However, time has demonstrated that we were simply living in a future that they didn't yet recognize."
Dr. Wright noted Elon Musk's angle on Bitcoin's energy consumption. The counterargument goes that anything worthwhile justifies the amount of energy it uses (think space exploration for one), but it's also true that BTC is incredibly wasteful for what it achieves. Has BTC transformed the world economy, or improved the lives of millions? No. Could it replace the world's fiat currency tomorrow, even if there were no alternatives? No again.
If you're going to consume energy equivalent to a small (or even medium-sized) country, you need to show it's in pursuit of something worthwhile. BSV has demonstrated that Bitcoin can actually perform its intended function as the world's money—or even use as a base platform for countries to create their own new ones.
Much needed truth at the right times
Musk and Wright were born less than a year apart. Both men have been known to go off-script and speak their true minds at critical times, often to the dismay of PR teams and bottom line-watchers. Both have had moments where they had to plant a foot down and say "no, this is the better way to do it."
And while those "vicious critics" Dr. Wright mentioned have indeed pounced each time, those moments only continued to endear them to followers who were actually paying attention. Truth is often in short supply in our world, every message seems micromanaged. Flashes of individualism or outright contrarianism are appreciated when they appear.
In 2021 and beyond, who do you want in charge of your future: the people who say "let's just continue on this course no matter how deep we have to dig," or the ones who say "I think we need to look at different paths"?
Both Musk and Wright hail from the Southern Hemisphere. On the surface that might seem like an insignificant detail. But maybe there is something about growing up with your winters in July and your Christmases in summer that gives people a different perspective on reality—fundamental life experiences that are radically out of step with most other cultures, and the world as they experience it through TV or in songs and movies.
This may not affect everyone from those places the same way but, to the right minds, perhaps that life experience enables them to more easily imagine a world (or worlds) where things are different; not everything matches the "consensus reality" as presented. Whatever the reason, Musk and Wright are presenting humanity with more original alternatives, ones that often seem more appealing.
Hopefully, we will see Musk and Wright hash things out at CoinGeek New York, which will take place on October 5-7.

When you pick up a book written in 1958, especially by a 19-year-old writer, you expect it to be out of date and perhaps even a little weak. But I loved this book. It's short and tight, but masterful as Robert Silverberg always is.
I may be biased. Silverberg, without a doubt, is my favorite speculative fiction author (Orson Scott Card is second). But this story resonated with me and it holds up even sixty years after it was written.
The story of 18-year-old Alan Donnell, a spacer who serves on his dad's ship, Starman's Quest introduces us to a future Earth very different from our own. When the ship returns to Earth after a journey which passed like months for its crew but equalled nine years on Earth, Alan leaves to search for his missing twin brother Steve. Anxious for adventure, Steve had jumped ship the last time they ported on Earth, and Alan is anxious to see his now 26-year-old brother, forever altered by the differences of time on Earth vs. time in space.
It is Alan's first time in an Earther city, and he finds it fascinating. When his spacer outfit and cultural ignorance bring unwanted attention from locals and the Police, he only manages to escape with the help of a gambler named Max. Max seems to be eying his as a protegé, and ends up tutoring Alan in the culture and resources needed to find Steve.
After Max and Alan return Steve to their father's ship, Alan decides it's his turn for adventure. Alan has long dreamed of building a faster than light drive based on the drawings of long lost (and ridiculed) scientist and hopes to one day track down his lost diaries and continue his work.
Silverberg's work is no doubt aided by his own proximity in age to his main character. Alan's point of view as a teen discovering Earth and its culture for the first time comes off as very authentic, and we experience everything along with him. For science fiction, this is a great way to introduce the futuristic elements unfamiliar to us, and it's amazing how many of those resonate even today as future possibilities well within our imagination.
Silverberg comments in a brief note at the beginning that the book is not his best work but will be of interest to those curious about his early career. I think the writing style his fans have experienced in his later works is clearly recognizable here and readers, fans or not, will enjoy the book. It's size makes it a fast read, so it's a good introduction to Silverberg for any who haven't discovered him before.
I highly recommend Starman's Quest and know you'll enjoy it as much as I did.

Athlete of the Week: Anna Schmidt makes splash for Aberdeen Stingrays
By Robb Garofalo rgarofalo@aberdeennews.com
Robb Garofalo
Swimmer Anna Schmidt had a pretty successful weekend in the pool for the Aberdeen Swim Club earlier this month.
The Roncalli junior took home three individual wins during the Winter High Point meet at the Aberdeen Family YMCA in early January, finishing first in the 200-yard breaststroke, 200-yard butterfly and 1,650-yard freestyle. When asked if she knew that she could have that type of performance, Schmidt said until you get into the water, you just never know.
"I never really know how I'm going to do until after that first race," she said. "You can kind of base the rest of your meet off how well you did in your first race. For me, my goal when I'm swimming is to concentrate on my technique. If you're off on your technique, it could cost you a second, which is big in swimming. I didn't have many bad starts and hit my turns so it was a pretty good weekend."
One element swimmers need to be cognizant of and Schmidt has developed an awareness for is the gravity of a swim meet. The Winter High Point event, for example, had hundreds of swimmers in dozens of events, and as Schmidt pointed out, it can be overwhelming. You just need to find out when your event is and focus on your swimming, not all the craziness going on.
"One of the hardest parts of preparing for meets is just looking at it, because it looks like an awful lot," Schmidt said. "When you're actually swimming it's not bad, but before the races get started, when you're looking at your events, your heats, it's a lot to take in. Then you get your schedule and you're like, 'Oh, my gosh, I'm swimming in these races and they're back to back.' There's a lot to look at when you first get (to a meet) but the more you swim, the more you know what to expect."
Schmidt began swimming when she was 8 and credits her teammates for making it a pretty easy decision to keep coming back to the pool in the past several years now.
"I just basically wanted to try it out and I liked it and have been doing it since," she said. "We just have a really great team. I like everyone who swims. It's a fun way to spend my nights and weekends. It's just a really great group to be around."
About two years into swimming is when Schmidt began to realize just how much she liked it and how much she wanted to compete and get better.
"I always liked (swimming), but when I was 10 and I was at zones, I placed," Schmidt said. "That didn't really happen a lot for swimmers in South Dakota, and I was really excited by that. I mean, I always liked the sport, but that was sort of validation that I could do pretty well, which was pretty exciting."
Schmidt's coach, Kileen Limvere, has seen the junior cut down on her times because of her willingness to focus on all of the little things that can help you be better in the pool.
"Anna has been focusing on a lot of details in the water," Limvere said. "Her turns, breathing patterns and dolphin kicks off the walls. She's just been very dedicated to making sure she hits all of those types of elements, which can help her race times at meets, and I think we've seen a lot of progression in her times because of it."
As for Schmidt's future in the sport, some of the particulars still need to be decided, but one thing is for sure. She wants to continue to compete and has made some early inroads to securing that for at least a few more years.
"I want to swim in college, for sure," Schmidt said. "I've talked to some coaches and have a few visits set up, but right now I don't know where I want to go or what exactly I want to do yet."
As much as Schmidt is thinking about her future and the possible extension of her swimming career at the collegiate level, she is also aware that there are plenty of younger swimmers who are just starting out in the sport. As much as Schmidt juggles her daily routine, when she has time, she doesn't hesitate when it comes to helping that next generation of Aberdeen Stingrays.
"I try to stay after (practice) and help with the smaller kids' sessions if I'm not doing anything," she said. "We all really try to help with relays because relays are crazy. We just try to get the kids pumped up about swimming. It's fun. I just love helping out the little kiddos swim. They're so cute trying to swim up and down in their lanes."

PWH 105
In hopes of raising funds for the PJH drama club to purchase new sound and lighting equipment, Mrs. Sturgill created a donation page at AdoptAClassroom.org. The following is an excerpt from Mrs. Sturgill's profile page (and can be found at https://sforce.co/33FaE7r),
"In a district with limited fine arts opportunities, Drama club offers an outlet for creative expression. There are a variety of ways for students to participate in Drama club, including acting, lighting, artistic stage craft, make-up and sound engineering. Eligible students come from three grade levels, and our club represents students from diverse backgrounds and academic abilities. Any student that expresses interest can find a home in Drama club. Over the years Drama Club, as well as other programs (band, chorus, etc) have made due with limited, out-dated sound equipment and stage lighting. We are in dire need of updates to our equipment. We want the fantastic talents at PWH to be showcased in a way they've never been able to before. Help us enrich the extracurricular lives of our students through cooperative dramatic experiences."
Since posting on the donation site, PJH drama club had only raised about $100 towards their lofty $7,000 goal. That has changed with a substantial donation from Fairview Heights' very own Burlington Stores. Burlington donated $1,200 toward PJH drama club in an effort to better our equipment, and thus our shows. We are beyond thankful for this huge donation! Burlington Stores, Pontiac Jr. High Drama Club thanks you for your support in the local arts and the youth in our community!

The song of the week is Cripple Creek.
Form & Arrangement
Cripple Creek is a two part fiddle tune (AABB form) that is traditionally played in the key of A.
Although Cripple Creek has lyrics, it is usually played as an instrumental in bluegrass circles, and is often thought of as being more of a banjo tune than a fiddle tune.
Each part of Cripple Creek is 4 measures long. Each part is repeated before going on to the next part.
The progression stays on the 1 chord for most of the time, with just a very quick change to the 5 chord (for a half a measure) at the beginning of the last measure of each line, and a quick change to the 4 chord at the beginning of the 2nd measure of the A Part.
A-Part:
1 4/1 1 5/1 (play twice)
B-Part:
1 1 1 5/1 (play twice)
(In the key of A: 1=A, 4=D, 5=E. In the key of G: 1=G, 4=C, 5=D.)
The progression for the B Part is typical for fiddle tunes in which each part is 4 measures long (instead of 8 measures long) before it is repeated. Other fiddle tunes that use the same progression as the progression for the B Part of Cripple Creek include: Cotton-Eyed Joe (key of A, both parts), Sally Goodin (key of A, both parts), Shortnin' Bread (key of G or A, both parts), Cumberland Gap (key of G: both parts), Black Mountain Rag (key of A: A and B Parts), The Eighth Of January (key of D: B Part), Sourwood Mountain (key of A, both parts), Ida Red (key of A: both parts), Lee Highway Blues (key of D: A Part), Fire On The Mountain (keys of A and D: both parts), Four Cent Cotton (key of C: both parts), and Hell Broke Loose In Georgia (key of C: A, B, and D parts).
Here are a few youtube links to listen to.
Flatt and Scruggs, key of A (instruments are tuned a little more than a quarter tone sharp, so although the intended key is A, the pitch on the recording is closer to Bb than to A):

Since there are no guitar breaks in either of these youtube clips, here is a guitar teaching video that starts off with a couple of good breaks for Cripple Creek (played in G):

For those interested in a version with lyrics, here is one that I remember from my early childhood:

Melody & Breaks
Concerning the melody sheets attached here: Each sheet has two versions of Cripple Creek on it. The version at the top of the page is the melody as I would hum or sing it. (This is only one of many possible interpretations of the basic melody of Cripple Creek.) With the exception of the banjo tab sheet, the version at the bottom of each page is a more elaborate interpretation of the melody of Cripple Creek, and makes for more interesting breaks on fiddle, mandolin and guitar. When playing guitar or mandolin breaks for Cripple Creek at the jam, I often play something very similar to this.
But, just as often I will play a break that is somewhere about halfway between the basic version of the melody and the more elaborate version of the melody. So, if you find that the version at the bottom of the page is too difficult for you to play at the faster speeds that Cripple Creek is sometimes played at the jam, you might play the basic melody for the most part, but every so often make use of a measure, or even just half a measure, of the more elaborate version of the melody. By doing this, you can come up with many different ways to play a break for Cripple Creek, and this also makes the tune more interesting when all your breaks on a song don't sound exactly the same as each other.
(Note: Instead of writing first and second endings for the A and B Parts of second version of Cripple Creek on each page, I wrote the last measure of each part as an incomplete measure. This measure is completed by the short pickup measure found at the beginning of whichever part one is going to play next.)
Banjo: Melody & Breaks
On the banjo tab sheet, the version of Cripple Creek at the bottom of the page is not a more elaborate version of the melody, but is rather a Scruggs-style break that is based upon the basic version of the melody. Bluegrass fiddle, mandolin, and guitar players, when surrounding a melody with additional notes, will tend to choose notes that closely neighbor the melody notes on the scale. This tends to make many of the extra notes sound like additional 'melody' notes. Bluegrass banjo players have less of a tendency to take this type of approach when adding extra notes. Bluegrass banjo players from the 'Scruggs-style' tradition do very little of this, but instead usually use in their breaks not much more than only the most essential melody notes of a tune, and then surround these notes with 'chord' notes (notes that belong to the chord being played at the time in the song), and/or 'drone' notes (notes that belong to the '1' chord - e.g., G chord when playing in the key of G, regardless of what chord is called for at the time in the song). These notes are chosen in accord with certain set picking patterns (called 'rolls'), and with little regard to the width of the interval between any two successive eighth notes. The overall effect that this has is to make the notes added around the melody not sound at all like additional melody notes. Their function is comparable in some ways to the function of the strums that occur between melody notes in 'Carter-style' guitar breaks, and in other ways to the function of bagpipe drones.
Even for banjo players who are really familiar with playing Cripple Creek, I recommend picking through the basic melody for the tune if you have never done that before. For, the clearer one's idea is of the melody, all the more natural it becomes to give good clear accents to the melody notes in one's break. However, since the melody as written here has several eighth notes back to back played on the same string, unless you already play 'single-string' style (in which the thumb plays the first note in a pair of 8th notes while the index finger plays the second note in the pair, regardless of which strings the notes occur on), I recommend picking through the melody with a flatpick (guitar pick) just as a guitar or mandolin player would.
Happy Pickin',

Biografia

Aloïs Boudry si formò presso le scuole d'arte di Ypres e di Roeselare, s'iscrisse quindi all'Accademia di belle arti di Anversa, dove fu allievo di Nicaise de Keyser - che era specializzato in dipinti a soggetto storico - poi seguì i corsi di Jozef van Lerius.

Nel 1885 si unì agli artisti del circolo Als ik Kan (Al meglio delle mie capacità). A questa associazione, fondata il 25 ottobre 1883 e che fu sciolta dopo l'ultima esposizione, nel 1952, aderirono giovani pittori di stampo verista, come Henry van de Velde pittore e disegnatore di arredi, Léon Abry, Émile Claus che nel 1904 fondò il Circolo Vita e luce ed Evert Larock. Erano artisti che, in Belgio, avevano deciso di rompere con il passato accademico e proclamare un rinnovamento l'arte, prendendo spunto dalla vita reale.

Aloïs Boudry partecipò all'Esposizione internazionale di Bruxelles (1910), meritando una medaglia d'argento. Per il lancio della nuova stazione balneare di Knokke-Heist, sulla costa belga del Mare del Nord, nel 1913 disegnò manifesti promozionali.

All'inizio della I Guerra mondiale, rifiutando di combattere, riparò in Inghilterra e lì si fece conoscere come ritrattista. Nel 1917 fece un lungo viaggio d'istruzione in Italia e visitò anche Capri, dove prese spunto per vedute: è stato uno dei tanti pittori stranieri giunti a Capri, attirati dalla luminosità e dalla natura.

Alcuni suoi dipinti sono conservati al Museo nazionale della pesca (o Nationaal Visserijmuseum) di Oostduinkerke (quartiere di Koksijde).

Suo figlio Robert Boudry (1872-1961), fu pittore, come suo nipote Paul Boudry (1913-1976). Suo pro-pronipote Nele Boudry è pittore.

About Kent B. Amos
See how Kent B. Amos is related to other HistoryMakers
Born May 21, 1944, Kent Amos was raised in northwest Washington, D.C., where he was a track star at Calvin Coolidge High School before graduating and serving the U.S. Army in Vietnam. After his tour of duty, Amos graduated from Delaware State University and was hired by Xerox Corporation.
At Xerox, Amos became one of the company's most successful salespersons and was instrumental in increasing the number of African Americans in its sales force. Amos was promoted many times, becoming the youngest corporate director in Xerox history. Although Amos and his family relocated to several cities across the United States, they were able to return to Washington, D.C., where Amos and his wife first became involved in caring for at-risk children, offering shelter, financial support, and a nurturing environment to local youth. Amos felt compelled to do even more, and in the 1980s he left corporate America to devote himself full-time to helping families take care of their children. In 1991, Amos founded the Urban Family Institute (UFI), a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating urban neighborhoods where every family has the resources they need to ensure that children grow up with the close guidance, discipline, and nurturing, of caring adults.
In 1994, Amos also founded Kids House, a program designed to provide a safe, academically supportive after school program. Four years later, recognizing the unique opportunity of charter schools, Amos founded the Community Academy Public Charter School, where he served as principal and CEO. The Community Academy grew to become recognized as one of the leading charter schools in Washington, D.C., functioning as a national model.
Amos was featured on many local and national radio and television programs, including The Oprah Winfrey Show, and in newspapers, magazines, and books. Amos also frequently spoke on the issue of child-related public policy and received numerous citations, awards, and honors, for his community service. In 2002, Amos was ordained a deacon, serving the congregation of Washington's Shiloh Baptist Church; he also served as the chairman of the Shiloh Community Development Corporation.
Amos and his wife, Carmen, remained close to their extended family in Washington, D.C.
