The databases used to store and manage data are controlled by a single individual or organization. Normally there are set of checks defined so that data's integrity is maintained. But still, there is always a possibility that any individual or organization misuses the privilege to temper the data for its own benefit. This is especially important for databases that store financial or other critical data of customers. Moreover, the data can be hacked and misused by hackers.
This leads to issues of data security, data integrity and data transparency. Now if the database is made distributed i.e. having multiple copies of it, the issue of data integrity can be taken care of. Even if one of the copy is tempered or hacked, the data integrity can be restored using the copies. But in this scenario, how do you manage the new data entries? Not everyone with a copy of the database can be given right to make new entries to database. This will put all the copies out of sync leading to data corruption.
Here Blockchain comes to the rescue.
Blockchain operates in a network of computers where each computer is a node and has a complete authenticated copy of the database.
Each node potentially has an option to write to the database. When a new transaction is made in the network, a consensus protocol kicks in based on which the node who will write the transaction is decided. Since all nodes have equal opportunity to be the node selected, it decentralises the control.
A number of transactions are clubbed together to form a block and that block is added by the node selected for the purpose. While adding the block, a reference of the last added block is added to it creating an ordered chain called Blockchain.
Blockchain's distributed and decentralized consensus model makes the data secure, transparent and authentic.


Whether you're already down the coast or making a day trip for lunch, Cupitt's is well worth a visit. Photo: Supplied.
If you're like many Canberrans who drive up and down the Princes Highway completely focused on your next coastal holiday destination, you could be missing out on discovering one of the Ulladulla region's hidden gems. Tucked away between Ulladulla and Milton, and just a few kilometres off the main road is a delightful venue that offers a standout rural food and wine experience.
Cupitt's Winery is a family-run business that brings together everything you need for a perfect foodie indulgence. Not only is there an excellent restaurant and boutique winery on site, but there's also a microbrewery and a fromagerie to tantalise your taste buds. It's all in an exquisite pastoral setting near the peaceful Burrill Lake with spectacular views over the vines and farming land to Pigeon House Mountain and the Budawang Ranges. What's not to love?
The dining experience at Cupitt's is excellent. Set within a beautiful building that brings together rustic stone walls and sophisticated contemporary design – it is exceptional. The restaurant offers tranquil views over the vineyard and the menu draws on the best fresh local produce, some grown on the property, to deliver modern, creative, and most importantly, five-star food.
One of the several desserts on offer – this is a fondly-remembered favourite from the first of our many visits. Photo: Supplied.
If you prefer something a little more casual but equally delicious, check out the bar menu. It includes Cupitts' famous artisan cheese board which showcases four kinds of cheese made at the on-site fromagerie from local goat and cow milk. If you're in the area on a Thursday or Friday, call in for their great value $29 Express Lunch.
Cupitt's microbrewery produces single-batched hop-forward beers, and it's worth dropping in and ordering a tasting paddle, where you can sample your choice of 4 beers for $14.
If you're a wine drinker, check out the boutique wines at the cellar door. It's in a gorgeous historic building that was built in 1851, and there's always a knowledgeable staff member nearby to tell you more about the wines and help you choose which ones you'd like to add to your home cellar. If you're keen to go behind the scenes, sign up for the Tour and Taste experience. You'll get to check out all aspects of the business and sample some produce on the way.
Cupitt's is a wonderful opportunity to soak up the atmosphere, smell the fresh country air, and recharge. There's plenty of room to move, and it's easy to find a spot of your own in the stunning countryside. It's pet-friendly, so you can have a top-notch dining experience with your furry friend on a leash right nearby. Drop in for their Sunday Sessions to soak up some easy-listening live music on the deck while savouring some craft beers or sampling some delicious local wines.
Cupitt's is at 58 Washburton Rd Ulladulla.

From Canberra, head to the Kings Highway via Queanbeyan. Follow the Kings Highway all the way to its intersection with the Princes Highway, just outside Batemans Bay. At the big roundabout, turn left and follow the highway to Ulladulla. Turn left into Green Street, follow the road for 2.5km then turn left into Washburton Road. Drive another 600m then follow the driveway down to Cupitt's.
If you're staying nearby, Wine Knot Tours operates in the local area and offer pick up and drop off to Cupitt's Sunday Sessions.
Because you can dine on the terrace and enjoy the sun and spectacular views, or inside in front of the roaring fire, Cupitt's is a year-round attraction. Check their What's On page for special events and happenings.
Cupitt's is open every day between Wednesday and Sunday. On the weekends, there's a bar menu that includes specials including wood-fired pizza. Cupitt's recommend phoning to check availability before you visit because there may be private functions happening, which means offerings could be limited.
We couldn't get enough of the seared scallops when we visited Cupitt's. If you've been there, what's your favourite dish on the menu?
Well worth the trip. The menu is thoughtful and the resultant food is of a high standard but it does get very busy on weekends so you will need to book. The wines are good too, using brought-in (e.g. Hilltops) as well as estate grapes, so quite a range of wines is available.

10 Years of Ossie
With Leon Osman celebrating 10 years as a first team player in the recent draw with Swansea, we look back at some of Leon's highlights in an Everton shirt.
Osman statue has certainly risen in recent years, with more and more people appreciating what he brings to the team. Arguably one of the most technically gifted players to come out of the Everton academy system, Osman is a rare breed in that he is a naturally two footed player. An excellent passer of the ball, Osman's close control make him a fashionable footballer at the moment. Very much in the Spanish mould, Osman has deservedly received international recognition this year, with an England debut coming against Sweden.
It has not always been plain sailing for Osman. After winning the FA Youth Cup with Everton in 1998, Osman suffered a serious knee ligament injury which disrupted and delayed his inevitable progress into the Everton first team. When he returned to fitness he became a regular goal scorer for the reserves and with Evertonians desperate for more home grown talent in the first team, the more knowledgeable support, pushed for his inclusion in the first team. David Moyes was biding his time and preferred to send Osman out on loan to Carlisle and Derby County before finally granting Osman his full Everton debut away at Wolves during the 2003/4 season.
Although he had a couple of prior substitute appearances to his name Osman was to make an immediate impact. Inside 10 minutes, Osman gave Everton the lead with a finish at the near post. Ultimately Everton were to lose that game, but with the club facing upheaval that summer, Osman was to become a first team regular from that moment onwards.
The following Season, 2004/5 Everton were to finish 4th and the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League. Osman played a significant part in that season, scoring seven times, including a double against West Brom at Goodison in a 2-1 win. Everton developed a healthy knack of scoring late goals that season, and Osman scored one such goal against Portsmouth early in the New Year. Everton had endured a difficult Christmas and many were beginning to doubt Everton's top 4 credentials. With only moments to spare Osman scored a vital winning goal which lifted the roof of Goodison and lifted spirits in the Everton camp.
In the 2007/8 season, with Everton now regulars in European competition, Leon Osman scored arguably his best goal in an Everton shirt. A fantastic free flowing team goal, ending with a superb finish from Osman as Everton beat European minnows Larissa 3-1.
Fast forward a year, and Everton were looking to add silverware to the impressive David Moyes era. With Everton struggling to beat Macclesfield in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup, Leon Osman scored a superb goal, placing the ball in the top corner to give Everton a 1-0 win against stubborn lower league opposition. That set Everton on a tremendous cup run, which ultimately ended in Cup Final defeat.
In many ways the Cup Final was a watershed in Osman's Everton career. Up until that point he had often been utilized as a wide man, but Osman's natural abilities often forced him to drift inside. During the cup final his lack of pace was exposed and many questioned his worth to the team. With Everton suffering a downturn in form the following season, Moyes, searching for a solution to turn around Everton's season, played Osman in a more central role, which not only coincided with Everton's form improving dramatically, but also resulted in Leon Osman claiming a number of man of the match awards. The voices, who had long pushed for international recognition for Osman grew louder, and as his consistency levels increased, the international call finally arrived. Leon Osman has been a credit to Everton and his value to the team cannot be underestimated.

Charity regulators issue warning about fake clothing bin removal notices
10 Oct 2019 News
Charity regulators have issued a warning about a company called Compounding Action, which has been issuing false clothing bin removal notices to charities.
The Charity Commission and the Fundraising Regulator have said that Compounding Action (registered company number 10879744) has been issuing notices telling charities they must remove their clothing bins with immediate effect.
The Commission said: "If your charity receives one of these notices you have no obligation to comply."
The Fundraising Regulator stated: "The notices say that the owners of clothing banks have failed to comply with various Acts of Parliament or regulations. In addition, we are aware that some organisations may have received correspondence from an entity named Fundraising Bureau of Investigations Ltd (registered company number 11807195), claiming that it is conducting an industry wide investigation and seeking the provision of contractual documents."
It added: "The Fundraising Regulator wishes to make it clear that these notices and correspondence are issued without its consent and it is not party to them.
"Organisations receiving these notices and correspondence should be clear that they are under no obligation to comply with them or to provide Compounding Action or Fundraising Bureau of Investigations with the information they ask for or to meet any costs they say they may incur. Neither Compounding Action nor Fundraising Bureau of Investigations is acting with the authority of The Fundraising Regulator."
The Fundraising Regulator issued a sample of one of the notices being circulated. It falsely stated: "The owner of the clothing/shoe bank must remove this bin with immediate effect. Failure to comply with this notice shall result in action being taken by compounding action to remove this bin from this site should the owner of this bank not comply with this notice".
The sample adds: "Any cost incurred by this action will be recovered by Compounding Action. At all times compounding action ltd shall accept full responsibility and or liability for any damage to the bin and is contents in the event of its compounding and storage."
At the moment there is an active proposal to strike off Compounding Action limited from Companies House. Fundraising Bureau of Investigations was incorporated on 5 February 2019, according to Companies House.

Will: Alison Young answers YOUR questions!
Hi everyone, last week we answered YOUR Facebook and Twitter questions live on In the Salon with Alison.
I think it's fantastic for you to be able to get a direct line to our beauty expert, she has a huge amount of knowledge & experience that we can all tap into.
As I mentioned above, if you have any comments please post them below. I'd love to put more of your questions to our QVC experts live on air, so if you have any ideas it would be great to hear about them.
If you haven't already posted on our Facebook or Twitter pages, just click on the links to take a look.
I'm in my late 40s and have recently been getting a very red, angry face with white lumps. I'm blonde so have always had some redness but it seems a lot worse now and I think it may be rosacea. I have not changed my diet but it's probably not the best (though that doesn't mean I live on greasy food and chocolate etc!!) but I have been going to the gym a lot for the past 8 months. I am menopausal so I'm guessing that's another potential issue. Is there any skin care regime you could recommend? I currently use Liz Earle and love it! Thanks for your help Alison. This is really getting me down so I'd really appreciate your help, thank you.


Since 1970, Nix Manufacturing has operated as a small, family-owned machine shop. The company provides parts for a variety of industries, including aerospace, electronics, government, military and more. Brian Nix grew up in the family business, and today serves as President.
"Increasing labor and operating costs made it impossible to be competitive on our parts. Our customers needed better pricing from us, and we just couldn't get there making the parts on less capable equipment. We knew that there was CNC machine tool technology out there that would put is in the position to lower costs of parts to our customers, while still being able to maximize our profit potential. We looked at both Swiss style CNC lathes and twin turret/twin spindle lathes. Once we decided on a Swiss Type CNC Lathe, we narrowed our decision down to three brands and eventually chose Tsugami based on reputation, distributor support, and capability of the machine over the competitors," explains Nix.
"The whole experience from the first time we looked at a Tsugami CNC machines to today has been nothing but excellent. All of the people involved have treated us like we were their favorite customer. One thing that really impressed me was that the initial time estimates done by Rem Sales proved to be very accurate. I was somewhat skeptical that this was just a sales pitch, but I was proved wrong!" praises Nix.

Q: jquery associative array made up of variables I have the following code:
var paramTemp = ret.split('^');
    $.each(paramTemp, function(key, elem) {
      var splitTemp = elem.split('*');
      params = {
    splitTemp[0]: splitTemp[1]
      };
    });

I get complaints when I try to set the key to splitTemp[0]. How do I set a key to a variables value?
Thanks.

A: You do this using bracket notation, it should look like this:
var paramTemp = ret.split('^'), params = {};
$.each(paramTemp, function(key, elem) {
  var splitTemp = elem.split('*');
  params[splitTemp[0]] = splitTemp[1];
});

In JavaScript these have the same effect:
obj.name = value;
obj["name"] = value;

2014 Medals Table (Complete)
AngusWolfe
Post subject: 2014 Medals Table (Complete)
Welcome to the 2014 Medals Table! What the championship would look like if Medals were awarded instead of points. At the end of the year, the driver with the most points will be the winner. If two drivers have the same amount of wins (gold), then the most second places (silver) will decide championship position. The same occurs if another tie occurs with third places (bronze). If drivers have the same medals, then highest non-podium position will decide, then second highest, etc. At the end of the season I will award places to those who did not achieve a podium according to highest finish, similar to those that don't score points under the official points system. If you require any other information, reply below and I will do my best to reply.

The way this season is going at the moment. Lewis DNF could get Magnussen 3rd place in the championship without him doing anything again all season.
Hamilton is running away with it.
It's interesting and something I didn't notice until having a look at this but we haven't had the same 3rd place finisher all season.
I think that shows how close the grid is (or was, Red Bull begins to pull away) behind the Mercedes domination. I thought this table would be pretty obvious this year, but for this, and every other table, third could be very interesting.

1. Oh how McLaren would wish this was the real scoring system!
2. You have Ricciardo TWICE!

So for 21 total medals Merc has 12. It sure shows the domination when it's quantified this way.

I don't think there's many stats that doesn't show their dominance.
Number of Canadian Grand Prix wins certainly isn't in their favour. What's interesting is when we take Mercedes out:
Ric 3|2|0
Alo 1|2|1
Vet 1|2|1
Per 1|0|0
Mag 1|0|0
But 0|1|1
Hul 0|0|3
Which not only goes to show how well Ricciardo is doing this season, but how close it is really. Also consider Ricciardo's DNF and DSQ would make the actual points even closer. With all the the on track action as well, I think this is actually a great season to be watching, with or without the Mercedes drama at the front.

Hamilton on the verge of being champion.

If Hamilton wins 1 more race regardless of which race it was even if Abu Dhabi was double points Rosberg couldn't beat him
4+4 (3 wins the Abu Dhabi race doubled) = 8

Post subject: Re: 2014 Medals Table (Russia Update)
And Lewis is champion. How long ago did Merc win the championship? 3 races so with 6 to spare?
What's odd is this seasons was both more and less competitive than last.
1. Vettel: |13|1|2|
2. Alonso: |2|5|2|
3. Rosberg: |2|1|1|
4. Raikkonen: |1|6|3|
5. Hamilton: |1|0|4|
6. Webber: |0|5|2|
7. Grosjean: |0|1|5|
8. Massa: |0|0|1|
So five winners to three (more competitive) but only eight podium drivers to 10. Although the season isn't over yet, that's pretty impressive. If I remember where I put the table for 2012 I'll show it, but that season was a bit of an anomaly.
3 drivers with more than 2 wins to the 1 driver last year.
Cheers for keeping updated all season. Enjoy threads like these as I'm sure many others do even though there aren't many comments.
Donno if you possibly have it already but don't ask don't get. How does it look now with Mercedes?
Found 2012, a whopping 13 podium finishers. More than half the grid. And of course the 8 different winners.
c: Vettel - 5, 3, 2

Without Rosberg and Hamilton? I don't have it but I'll try and sort it out tonight.
Thanks appreciated. Wanna see how tight it is between Bottas and Ric.
Five wins each, but Ricciardo has been way more reliable, with 6 seconds.
RIC |5|6|0|
BOT |5|1|1
VET |3|3|1|
ALO |1|3|4|
MAS |1|1|1|
MAG |1|0|1|
PER |1|0|0|
BUT |0|1|4|
HUL |0|0|3|
RAI |0|0|1|
There is a second place missing, but it's not going to make a difference between Ricciardo and Bottas. I think it might be for Bottas but I'm not certain.
Vettel would be in with a shout of the title still.

The Future of Music is Up in the Air
April 04, 2016 Kevin Ure 0 Comments
There are several technologies that are being developed that have the potential to change the landscape of electronic music composition. One of the biggest barriers for composers who want to get involved in sampling at a professional level is the cost of hardware, software, and samplers.
A professional setup can cost several thousand dollars, and then you have to continually maintain your digital audio workstation (DAW), spend time applying updates, installing new software, and then upgrading your computer when it's no longer up to the task or when you discover you need more computing power. It's a vicious cycle, and it puts the best technologies for music composition out of the reach of your average, fledgling composer. Ironically, some of the most talented composers out there are barred from technology simply because of their income level.
Much of this will likely change as cloud-based technologies are beginning to change the landscape of what is possible. Microsoft Office used to cost several hundred dollars, and now it can be had for the cost of a Netflix subscription. I believe the same is going to happen with sampling technologies. Though, I've found that electronic music is often behind the times when it comes to technological innovation.
However, with the advent of any new technology, there is always the possibility of that technology making composers less inclined to study and learn the basic tenets of music. This is an issue because composers still need to have the technique and knowledge that's necessary to avoid the mistakes of their predecessors.
A little-known fact is that Arnold Schoenberg started out composing romantic music, and many of his early works sounded like they were straight out of the Romantic period. As Arnold Schoenberg stated, "To hell with all these theories if their positive achievement consists in nothing more than helping those who would compose badly only to learn it quickly." My point? He understood the music of his time and the music of the past before he went on to essentially disassemble the framework of music.
Before Schoenberg built something new, he first took the time to learn about what was already out there.
Making technology that makes it possible to play with sound rather than learning to read and notate music is not bad in itself, but it does mean the doors of music composition will become open to a larger subset of the population. In much the same way as the hobbyist with a camera considers themselves a professional photographer. Still, this is always a concern with progress, and there will always be those composers who strive for balance.
The Cost of Samplers
Samplers can cost several thousands of dollars, and this can often make it very difficult for composers to access the high-quality sounds they need to create realistic compositions. Companies like Garritan have done a very good job of creating samplers that run on your average machine. However, many of the samples require a large amount of processing and editing to achieve a realistic sound.
I remember one of my first programs from East West, the instruction booklet stated that I could use a special "disk-streaming" feature to improve the quality of the sound. Additionally, you could connect several computers for additional processing power. It also suggested that you divide your sample libraries up onto several different hard drives for optimal performance. While this is still done for many extensive sampling collections, such as Vienna Strings, you could run almost any of those libraries from a single computer today.
Companies that manufacture sample libraries have made it easier to run their programs on most computers today. However, the concept of 128-bit music is still a ways off. Cloud-based computing could help to make this a reality and at a lower cost than traditional models.
A subscription-based option using the Software-as-a-Services (SaaS) model could make it more affordable for composers who only need to use the samples for a few months at a time to complete a project by using tools designed for composing online. This could solve the problem of having to fork out several thousands of dollars for professional-level samples. With so many composers going the route of giving their music away for free, this can help them to absorb less of an impact on their finances, and they would still be able to produce recordings to submit to contests and other money-making endeavors.
Bouncing to the Cloud
One of the methods of dealing with a computer that isn't up to the task of mixing down a composition that would be too intensive for the computer to record in real-time is by bouncing audio tracks to disk. This allows the computer to use plugins and samplers in the background and it can use much less processing power. The result is that you can create an electronic recording that uses samples without having to overtax your computer. If you have enough RAM and a fast enough processor, you'll be able to get more out of a lower-powered machine. However, the cloud has the potential to solve this issue completely.
As Internet speeds begin to increase, sending data to the cloud for processing is becoming easier than ever. The cloud is instantly scalable, and composers will be able to upload their MIDI files to a server, select the appropriate instruments, and then compile their creation in the cloud with virtually no limits. This has several potential boons to the process of composing online with electronic music.
Sampler companies will be able to create 64-bit and higher samples that can be used to create more realistic-sounding audio samples. Additionally, they will be able to create more complex algorithms for interpreting sample data without having to worry about the end-user. This is huge because companies always have to balance what is possible with what is practical. Practicality will become less of an issue with cloud computing. This also allows for a higher ceiling and there is less need to worry about clipping.
Even with bounce-to-disk technologies, computers can still over-extend their processing capabilities and the computer can crash. This results in a loss of time for the composer, and it can be frustrating to have to water down a composition to make it work with their computer. With cloud-based technologies, the only limitations will be those placed on the end-user by the software company.
A SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) model can be adopted for composers with meager means to realize their compositions. This will open up the playing field to composers who don't have the money to build a professional-level recording studio.
The Dark Side of Technology
The downside to all of this enhanced technology is that we're going to have to wade through a lot of really high-quality recordings by composers who haven't developed the musicianship skills that were so important in the past. Studying modern music, romantic music, classical music, and even baroque music can help to make you a more effective composer. On the other hand, the more people who can get engaged in the craft of music composition, the more educated a composer's audience will become. Music composers who have something to say will still be able to find a foothold and secure their niche if they can find where their listeners are.
The Lesson Learned From Music Notation Programs
Music notation programs are fantastic. They make it easier for composers to notate their ideas, and they can save a ton of time when it comes to printing those orchestra parts or making revisions. It also saves a lot of paper.
The main issue I've seen with notation programs is that they tend to make it easy for composers to start plopping notes on the page to fill space. It's too easy to cut and paste an ostinato, whereas in the past, a composer would have to write out each note and they would be more inclined to vary it up and make it more interesting.
Young composers often get caught up in a wash of sound, and they stop thinking critically about their compositions when they use technology to create their music. As an instructor in music composition, I can tell when a student has written a piece using a notation program or when they composed the piece at the piano. The music written for piano is generally more fluid, shows more thought, and is less likely to contain thoughtless notations that often come with music notation programs.
I believe we are in a time where young composers want immediate results. For sure, it has always been this way. When we're young, we want to move quickly and see progress, and we want it all now. I feel that the drastic increases in technology inspire young composers to skip over some basics that are really necessary to get the skill necessary to manipulate a composition effectively.
It's great to be able to use that "Palindrome" tool and mirror your compositions easily in a notation program, but it takes away the intellectual activity and the actual hands-on approach to music composition that I feel is so important. After all, music belongs to humans, not computers. I firmly believe that a composer who is rooted in classical traditions while still embracing the technology of the future will be able to make a more meaningful, dramatic composition.
Getting Back to Samplers...
Samplers have the ability to change the face of music and make technology more accessible to composers. However, as the case with music notation programs, there is still the issue of actually developing the skill to use these tools well. If a music sampler was a space shuttle, nobody would dare jump in and take it to the moon with little to no experience.
Music samplers in the cloud have the ability to make this technology accessible to anyone, and as with the space shuttle, anybody with a few dollars per month will be able to climb in. Luckily, with music, you'll just have to sort through a bunch of real, high-quality recordings that ramble on with little to nothing to say. So, at least with music, there is less physical harm.
Still, there are positives and negatives to any new technology. If this means there will just be more high-quality "sounds" to sort through, then that isn't the worst possible scenario. I still believe that making electronic music accessible to composers of limited means will result in some truly great works that might not otherwise be realized. That, in and of itself, is worth the pain that will come from every hobbyist in the world fancying themselves a real composer.
In fact, even as I write this, Composer Cloud is the first step toward the realization of a complete, cloud-based digital audio workstation. Composers can download the sounds they need when they want them. It's a subscription-based service that is designed to give composers access to all of the company's best libraries. It's only a matter of time before Steinberg, Cakewalk, or Logic Pro start offering their products online as well.
Hybrid Cloud Models
Recording studios will likely opt for a hybrid model that consists of both cloud-computing and traditional hardware. Final processing can be sent to the cloud where several studios can work on a recording, master, and prepare it for publication. This can help preserve the quality of the original recording, archiving becomes easier, and there will be no need to worry about saving disk space during the initial creation of a recording.
The Chrome Music Lab
Google has been busy creating The Chrome Music Lab. I believe that this is where music technology is headed. Soon, we'll be replacing the traditional recording studio with cloud-based applications. As Internet speeds increase, we'll be able to create real-time recordings in the cloud.
Imagine. All of your data and samples will be backed up and stored in real-time. There will be no more local storage on your computer, and you'll just keep all your audio files available online. This makes your works available anywhere you go, and you can take your online recording studio with you anywhere.
These technologies are just making it easier to get things done, and there is less wasted time and frustration associated with trying to get your digital audio workstation working with your current setup. It's going to take place completely in the cloud, and all we will have to do is log in and create our compositions.
The Future of the Orchestra
So, where does this leave our beloved orchestra? Electronic musicians who believe that electronic music will completely replace the orchestra are not really musicians in my opinion. Even if you could replicate an orchestra in perfect detail, getting rid of the orchestra is something that I think would be detrimental to the arts as a whole.
Orchestra music represents one of our crowning achievements. In much the same way as Olympic athletes compete and we cheer for our favorites, those of us who love the orchestra also look forward to that new interpretation, the showcase of virtuosic skill, and the uniquely human desire to sit on a stage and make all those wonderful sounds.
The orchestra isn't going anywhere. If anything, an emergence of electronic recordings will just make music more accessible. People will listen to more music, and this could result in more recognition of our top orchestras.
While sampling won't only consist of traditional ensemble pairings, there will likely be an increase of composers without access to an orchestra putting their works online, and even composing online, for the world to hear. This in itself can encourage the desire to hear a real live orchestra, and preliminary findings have demonstrated that this, in fact, could be the case.
The suggestion that comes from a Classical Music Consumer Segmentation Study commissioned by 15 American Orchestras and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is that "listening to classical radio and recordings at home and in the car is how consumers grow and sustain a love for classical music, then these are primary arenas for long-term audience development."
The Future of Music
The future of music is alive and well, and the naysayers who believe that classical music is on its way out don't really understand the drive behind the creation of music. Composers will compose even if there is nobody there to hear their notes. Sure, we want an audience, but the act of composition is about more than the audience. While Milton Babbitt was greatly criticized for his article, "Who Cares if You Listen?", there is some truth to his belief even today.
While I disagree with his belief that atonal music is somehow more efficient or superior, I completely acknowledge that it was a method that allowed him to express himself in a way that worked for him. In this sense, if he was truly composing the music he loves, then yes, indeed, who cares if you listen?
A composer must be confident in their ability to compose new works. When this confidence is shattered, they risk becoming a subject for their audience. While there is nothing wrong with being in service to an audience, this is the realm of film music and music for entertainment.
I believe the role of a classical composer is to continually push music forward and provide music that appeals to the intellect, emotions, and if we're lucky the audience. However, this doesn't mean that we should get wrapped up in what our audience thinks about our music.
The moment you start caring about what others think about your music to the point where you change it to suit their preferences is the moment where it begins to lose its intrinsic value. While there are basic concepts all composers should understand, you don't need to validate your music by whether an audience enjoys your music. That, in itself, is not a good barometer to use.
I'm not talking about the kind of composer who wants to make a lot of money, create film music, or get large commissions. These are all valid reasons to be a composer, and I'm not putting down anyone who wants these things. However, these sorts of compositions generally don't push the field of music composition forward.
People criticize the Second Viennese School, and they state that they created music that was simply unmusical or undesirable. But, the truth is, while the music may have been more dissonant than the average ear wishes to tolerate, they pushed music forward and opened it up to a large number of possibilities. We will always need composers like this who are willing to push the field forward.
There is an important distinction to be made here, though. If you're a young composer, you have to listen to the instruction and advice of others who have more experience.
Being a "maverick" isn't about simply satisfying yourself, never studying, and neglecting the centuries of music history and the composers who brought us to today. You must first learn why the masters were considered masters. If you can't replicate a classical-style piece after a little brushing up, then I don't believe you are ready to make the type of judgment call to allow you to brush off all opinions and criticisms of your music. This is something that only comes from experience, but for a composer like Milton Babbitt? He certainly earned his right to make his contentious assertion.
I do believe that the composer should keep his audience in mind, but the act of composing is also an intensely personal one for many of us. Admittedly, there are likely many narcissistic composers out there, but for a lot of us, it's simply about creating music and expressing ourselves. Of course, we need listeners to sustain ourselves, and we can't feed ourselves on notes alone.
However, there is also a lot to be said for not watering down the world of music with compositions that people already know and love. I can teach just about anybody how to create a piece that sounds like John Williams wrote it, but that's because he has already done the hard work of creating that sound. I could likely teach you to write like Gustav Mahler, but again, that music has already been created.
One of my favorite quotes is by Gustav Mahler. He once wrote to Natalie Bauer-Lechner that "composing is like playing with building blocks, where new buildings are created, again and again, using the same blocks. Indeed, these blocks have been there, ready to be used, since childhood, the only time that is designed for gathering."
As a composer, I could take Bach's blocks and I could build some structures with those, and they would sound very much like it came from his music. An expert in his music would quickly be able to identify me as a fraud, but nonetheless, I could be trained to use his developments in music to create a composition. This isn't composing, though, this is simply mimicking.
No two of us have had the exact same experiences and upbringing, and I believe that it is our experiences that make our music unique. No matter what happens with music technology, we will still need to answer the big questions about life, death, and everything in between.
Going back to my initial point, I believe that the future of music is bright. As long as there are composers who have something new to say, there will be people who want to listen.
Milton Babbitt ends his landmark article by stating the following:
"Granting to music the position accorded other arts and sciences promises the sole substantial means of survival for the music I have been describing. Admittedly, if this music is not supported, the whistling repertory of the man in the street will be little affected, the concert-going activity of the conspicuous consumer of musical culture will be little disturbed. But music will cease to evolve, and, in that important sense, will cease to live."
Perhaps if he were to write that statement today, he would change his mind. Of course, a composer has to be able to sustain themselves and not "starve on his dissonances" as Charles Ives aptly put it. Whether you're writing romantic music or looking to create a new music composition using electronic music, the technology is improving to the point where you will soon be able to create realistic demos while composing online. And, in an era where there is such a huge reach, and people from all over the world are just a click away from hearing your music, perhaps it's now possible to find your niche more effectively, support yourself, and continue to evolve the craft of music in a more honest manner that was not possible in the past.
There are several technologies that are being developed that have the potential to change the landscape of electronic music composition. On...

CMS warns state Medicaid programs on hepatitis c drug restrictions
pic thx to images money on flickr creative commons
Demonstrating concern over prescription drug costs, the Obama administration wrote state Medicaid programs that they may be violating federal law by restricting access to hepatitis C medicines. At the same time, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services wrote four drug makers asking for information about pricing arrangements with insurers and pharmacy benefits managers.
The move comes as a national debate over drug pricing accelerates. A new crop of hepatitis C treatments have factored heavily in the conversation, thanks to very high cure rates but also high price tags. The medicines cost from $63,000 to $94,500, depending upon the drug and regimen, before any discounts.
"The rhetoric around health care costs can become heated, particularly around the cost of prescription drugs," Andy Slavitt, the CMS acting administrator, wrote in a blog post disclosing the notice. "At times, it can appear as if some of those who produce the pharmaceuticals and those whose lives often depend on them have unaligned interests. But we will not make progress by polarizing this debate."
Ever since the new hepatitis C medications arrived nearly two years ago, public and private payers have called them budget-busters. In response, some state Medicaid programs began restricting access based on a number of factors. These included treating only those patients with the most advanced stage of liver disease and limiting treatment for those with a history of drug use and alcohol abuse.
But CMS officials warned the state Medicaid programs against "imposing conditions for coverage that may unreasonably restrict access" to hepatitis C drugs. Placing restrictions may be "contrary to the statutory requirements" of a federal law that requires state Medicaid programs to pay for all medically necessary treatments, CMS officials wrote in their notice to the state programs.
The agency is also eyeing managed-care organizations, which are paid by states to provide health insurance to some Medicaid beneficiaries. In the notice, CMS reminded state officials that MCOs may not apply "more restrictive" policies on hepatitis C drugs than state plans. The agency warned state officials to monitor MCOs to ensure they provide patient access to the medicines.
Patient advocates have regularly complained that restrictions are not included in the prescribed labeling that is approved by the Food and Drug Administration. One advocate applauded CMS. "Denying drugs that can cure people of a deadly infectious disease is just bad public health policy," said Carl Schmid, deputy executive director of The AIDS Institute, a nonprofit advocacy group, in a statement.
Meanwhile, CMS also wants information from four drug makers about their pricing arrangements with payers, which could affect what state Medicaid programs pay for the drugs. Under federal law, Medicaid is entitled to receive rebates of at least 23 percent of the so-called best price – or lowest price – for which a drug maker sells its products.
The letters were sent to Gilead Sciences, AbbVie, Merck, and Johnson & Johnson. Spokespeople for AbbVie and J&J wrote us that the companies intend to respond to the agency. We asked the other drug makers for a response as well and will update you accordingly. [UPDATE: A Merck spokeswoman wrote us that the drug maker is talking to CMS about its forthcoming hepatitis C drug, while a Gilead spokeswoman declined to comment.]
"That fact that CMS sent letters to each of the companies that make hep C drugs to remind them of their ethical responsibility to patients is a big deal," said Jeff Myers, chief executive officer and president of Medicaid Health Plans of America, a trade group that represents Medicaid-managed care plans. "It highlights the unsustainability of their current pricing model."

BlackSky is engaging in the next phase of expansion of the company's high-revisit commercial satellite constellation with the unveiling of their next generation, Gen-3, satellite architecture.
In addition, the company also announced it has conducted the preliminary design review of its Gen-3 satellite design for the U.S. Army Tactical GEOINT (TACGEO) prototype program as part of a multi-year contract with the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU).
The commercial constellation expansion features Gen-3 satellites capable of producing images with 50-centimeter resolution and of hosting multiple sensors including short-wave infrared (SWIR). The improved resolution and enhanced spectral diversity of the Gen-3 satellites will extend BlackSky's ability to provide real-time insights to its customers in a broad set of conditions, including nighttime, low light, and challenging weather.
The TACGEO program is designed to support the Department of Defense's (DoD) needs for responsive, space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) for tactical applications. The TACGEO program is a science and technology program to demonstrate the tactical utility of a single satellite of Gen-3's capabilities.
BlackSky's Gen-3 satellites will enable rapid distribution of highly responsive insights to warfighters to support concurrent war games, exercises, and combat training center events and help measure technology readiness.
The TACGEO project leverages BlackSky's high-revisit, low-latency constellation architecture to address a growing need for responsive intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance for the tactical ISR missions. BlackSky accelerates the DoD's ability to leverage low-cost, high-performance, small imaging satellites to develop Critical Concept Of Operations (CONOPS) including tactics, techniques and procedures, and to inform future operational systems.
The contract was awarded to BlackSky in January 2020 after a competitive bid process. The TACGEO satellite program is now well into the design and development phase and is on track to launch and demonstrate operational capabilities in 2022.
Brian O'Toole
"BlackSky is committed to ensuring the success of our customers' missions. Our strategy of combining rapid evolution and deployment of space-based remote sensing capabilities with an industry leading AI-driven analytics and delivery platform will ensure that our customers are always the first to know," said Brian O'Toole, CEO of BlackSky. "We are very proud to have reached this performance milestone. It demonstrates our ability to leverage a next generation space and analytics architecture to deliver new insights at a pace and economics unprecedented in the industry."

Q: How to check first run of an AIR application I want to check my AIR application is running in my system first time or not. Most of my searching lead to one answer that to write a file out side and check the file existing or not. But my requirement is different and if re install the same version again, then it should be a first run. Is there any idea to achieve that?

A: I am using File.applicationDirectory for several ipad apps and can confirm that all data written to that folder is wiped when the app is uninstalled. Thus being able to load a file previously saved to this folder gives you what you want.
var docDir:File = new File(File.applicationDirectory.nativePath + "/\.\./Documents");  //IOS specific
configFile = docDir.resolvePath("config.xml");
if (configFile.exists) {
  var firstRun:Boolean = false;
  configFile.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onConfigLoaded);
  configFile.load();
}else {
  firstRun = true;
  var configXML:XML = new XML("<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?><config />");

  var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
  fileStream.open(configFile, FileMode.WRITE);
  fileStream.writeUTFBytes(configXML);
  fileStream.close();
}

A: Create a file in the same folder as your application installation and then when the user uninstalls the application this file is also deleted ex C:\Program Files\yourgame\myfile.txt

A: I tried a method to write a file in application directory, first time I got a security error(http://forums.adobe.com/thread/209533)I got another method to overcome that and wrote a file inside the application directory. But after uninstalling that file is not deleted.My application folder retains there because i wrote an external file(That i want to store for first run check) inside the folder. Again tried to install the application an error message says folder exist.So i have to manually remove the folder to reinstall the application.if i delete that folder, then my problem is solved,I dont think its a good solution as User have to manually delete the folder for reinstall. Is there any other solution?

In many cases, WordPress tells you exactly what went wrong when you run into an issue. However, that's not the case with the "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error. The message itself doesn't give you any helpful information for fixing the problem.
Deactivating your plugins and reverting to your default theme.
Resetting your WordPress security keys.
Checking your WordPress uploads for unsupported file formats.
Upgrading to a better hosting provider.
As you can see, we have a lot to talk about. Don't be intimidated, however, as these fixes are mostly quite simple. Let's jump right in!
As you can see, this error message could stand to be a little more informative.
When it comes to troubleshooting, your first move should always be to read any error messages you're getting. In a lot of cases, this will tell you everything you need to know to fix whatever problem you've encountered. However, some errors aren't quite so helpful.
When you try to upload a plugin or theme.
During a media file upload.
When trying to publish a new post or page.
While customizing a theme, post, or page.
If WordPress runs into a PHP-related error, or your website encounters a security issue.
That's a long list, and there aren't any common denominators between all of these situations. To put it another way, the "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error is WordPress' way of saying: "Something went wrong and we're not sure what it is. Let's try again and see if it works this time!".
In some cases, trying to perform the same action again won't trigger the error a second time. However, in our experience, you usually have to fix the underlying issue before you can finish whatever you were doing. With that in mind, let's look at how to troubleshoot this error.
Since there are so many potential causes for this error, you need to be methodical when it comes to troubleshooting it. In this section, we'll walk you through six ways to solve the problem, from the most to least likely solution.
If you're lucky, you won't have to try all of these fixes. However, don't get discouraged if the first thing you try doesn't fix the problem – just keep going!
Most WordPress websites use several plugins at once. In some cases, one or more of those plugins can cause compatibility issues with each other or your theme. The best way to find out of a plugin is behind your woes is to disable them one by one, until you either find a culprit or rule them all out.
After you turn off each one, check to see if the "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error persists (by repeating the action that triggered it in the first place).
If you make your way through all the plugins without results, go ahead and switch over to your Themes tab. Change your active theme, and check once more to see if the error is still happening.
Once you rule out plugins and themes as the source of your problem, you'll want to reactivate them all. Then, move on to the next fix.
However, if you don't have access to your dashboard, you'll need to take another approach. To disable your plugins and theme, you'll have to access your website via FTP, using a client such as FileZilla.
After connecting to your website via FTP, navigate to the public_html/wp-content directory. You'll see several folders inside, two of which are called plugins and themes. Within those directories, you'll find unique folders for each of your themes and plugins. Right-click on the plugins folder, and rename it plugins.deactivated.
Try replicating the error once more, to see if that change fixed it.
If a plugin or theme turns out to be at the root of your problem, you have a few choices. You can try updating it if possible, uninstalling it, or looking for an alternative that doesn't trigger errors on your website. If none of them seem to be at fault, however, proceed to the next solution.
WordPress runs on the PHP programming language. When your website tries to run plugins and scripts, it has a set amount of PHP memory it can use to do so. If those scripts run out of memory, they can trigger errors such as "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" or "Allowed memory size of XXXX bytes exhausted".
These days, most WordPress web hosts set decent memory limits for your website out of the box, so this error isn't that common. However, adjusting your PHP memory limit is quite simple, so it doesn't hurt to try in case yours is set too low.
There are three ways you can increase your PHP memory limit in WordPress. The first one involves making a change to your server's configuration, which you won't be able to do if you're using certain types of hosting. With that in mind, we're going to skip right to the other two methods, which involve editing either your .htaccess or wp-config.php files.
Both of those are WordPress core files, which means they are highly important and contain settings that enable your entire website to run. When you're editing either of them, therefore, you'll need to be extra careful.
This will set your max PHP memory size to 256 MB, which is more than enough to handle any scripts. Plus, you'll also be increasing your file size upload limit, giving your website more time to upload files and process scripts.
After you've added the code, save your changes to .htaccess, and then close the file. FileZilla will ask if you want to save the changes to your server, so go ahead and say yes.
This will increase your PHP memory limit to 256 MB. Although you already tried to do this via .htaccess, sometimes (due to the way your server is set up) only one of these approaches will work. If the error persists after you save the changes to wp-config.php, however, it's time to move on to the next method.
Your WordPress security keys are also known as 'salts'. They are cryptographic sequences the platform uses to protect the information it stores in your database. This may sound complicated, but you don't need to understand all the technology involved. Suffice it to say that changing your salt keys can help fix security issues that could be triggering the "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error.
WordPress stores your site's unique salt keys within the wp-config.php file. As we mentioned earlier, you can find this file within the public_html directory. Just connect to your website via FTP and navigate to the folder, then open wp-config.php in your text editor.
To do that, visit this link from the WordPress API, which will generate a new full set of keys. Delete the existing lines, replace them with the new set you just generated, then save wp-config.php and close it. After that, try accessing your website again.
WordPress will ask you to log in, due to the change in your keys. Once you've accessed your dashboard, check to see if the error persists. If it does, you'll need to keep moving down the list.
WordPress enables you to add a wide variety of files to use within your posts and pages. The list of file formats the platform supports is quite extensive, and you can check them all out in the WordPress Codex.
One common cause of the "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error is when you're trying to upload a type of file WordPress doesn't support. If you're running into that problem, you can convert the file you want to upload to a format the platform can process. Otherwise, you'll keep running into the same error over and over again while trying to upload the file.
So try saving the file in another format supported by WordPress, and adding it to your site. If you meet with no success (or if the action you're trying to perform is something other than uploading a file), you'll need to try something else.
If you're using a caching plugin with WordPress, you may run into errors when trying to make changes to your website. Fixing this problem is actually quite easy, as all you have to do is clear your WordPress cache. The problem is that the process required can vary, depending on which plugin you're using.
There's a big button that reads Delete Cache right below, so you can't miss it. Just click on that button, and the plugin will empty your cache.
Most other caching plugins include similar options. You can read more about how to troubleshoot W3 Total Cache or WP Fastest Cache in another guide from our archives. In any case, remember to check and see if the "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error is gone after clearing your cache! If not, there's one last thing to try.
If you've gotten to this point and nothing has worked, chances are the "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error is popping up due to a problem with your server's configuration. That means you'll need to ask your provider's support team to help you troubleshoot the issue, which can take some time depending on how effective they are.
In any case, if you're running into these kinds of problems due to your choice of hosting provider, it might be time to consider making a change. Ideally, you'll want to use a web host that works well with WordPress. Here at Hostinger, for example, we offer WordPress-friendly plans at low prices, with lots of handy features and rock-solid support.
What's more, migrating your website from one host to another isn't as complicated as you might think. It can take up to a few hours, but you'll save yourself a lot more time by not having to deal with so many errors in the future.
The "Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again" error can be intimidating since it doesn't give you much information to go on. However, it's one of the most well-documented errors in WordPress history. We know what its many potential causes are, and fixing it isn't usually difficult. In most cases, you won't need to try the full six methods we've outlined. If you're seeing issues like this often, however, it may be time to change web hosting providers.

Koji Uehara has struggled to stay off the disabled list in two years with the Orioles, but the 35-year-old right-hander thrived after moving to the bullpen full time this season with a 2.86 ERA and 55/5 K/BB ratio in 44 innings.
He converted 13-of-15 save opportunities, held opponents to a .220 batting average, finished the season with 32 straight walk-less appearances, and had the best strikeout-to-walk ratio in the entire league among pitchers with 40-plus innings, ahead of even Cliff Lee.
However, according to Steve Melewski of MASNSports.com "the Orioles haven't made much of an attempt to re-sign him." Because of his age and injury history Uehara is definitely a risk, but if the Orioles let him walk my guess is several contenders would line up for the chance to give him an incentive-laden one-year contract as a setup man.


Since our store wont have a booth at fanime this year I will be attending as per normal. We shall see whether or not I hijack a booth like I did last year for some impromptu nerdcoreness. Or if filled wiht enough bravado from friends I might just start busting rhymes at random.
I will also be guerrilla gaming all weekend. Some homeboys who wont break down and pay the cash to attend will try to sneak into the gaming hall for D&D OR we'll just procure some tables on the concourse and play to the sounds of Stage 0 shenanigans.
Also, check out the Twilight Knights Dojo where Master Ben Hsu will be laying down Martial Arts knowledge, and BONUS! My store is doing combo packs for training for that. Get em quick, we will probably sell out.
So keep an eye out for my vaguely famous headgear and say hi. See you web-space cowboys!

Xbox One Heading For a December 2013 Launch?
May 27, 2013 Jason Andrews	4 Comments
Xbox One, the controversial new generation gaming/media centre from Microsoft could end up succeeding where the Philips CDi failed in that it does more than play games. Gamers the world over are crying out anti-consumer issues because of the focus of the recent reveal not primarily centred around games, doubled with the confusion over the used games market and DRM requirements it has left a bitter trail across the internet!
Recently, during a great Xbox Guide video demo for Wired as shown below, Microsoft Principal Development Manager of Live TV, Ashley Speicher, stated "the company is working hard on the console and that, when it's going to be released in seven months, customers won't even recognize it." This possible slip of the tongue positions the launch window for Microsoft's new Xbox One console for December 2013, and not November as per the assumption of many.
Microsoft had stated explicitly that the Xbox One reveal was to be in two stages, the first on May 21st was a hardware showcase only with the emphasis on gaming and other details surrounding the console to be announced during the E3 2013 event in the coming weeks.

I was very skeptical as to the necessity for estate planning. However, Attorney Kobrick's professionalism, thoroughness and understanding of our various family needs made a convert of me. I have only the deepest gratitude to him for the peace of mind he has brought to my wife and me.
I was very impressed and pleased that this uncomfortable matter was finalized with such little 'pain'. My daughter was the most relieved to know that all of my personal desires and effects were now truly organized and settled. Thank you for arranging my estate.
We have received very competent and well-informed answers to all the questions that we raised and even to issues that we had not thought about.
