I've noticed that the duplicate supplier invoice preference doesn't work when creating a bill from an invoice in the in tray and the fields are pre populated, even if I retype the invoice number it doesn't pick up that the invoice is already in the system.
I've tested this by entering the same bill using "enter purchases" and the system does warn me that the invoice number is duplicated.
I have checked my preferences and they have always been set to warn for duplicate purchase orders and supplier invoices.
I would like to extend a warm welcome to you on this forum and I hope you will find this resourceful.
You are right! The system preference is not picked when using Intray but there is a bug in the system in 2018.3. Our product developers are aware and hopefully, expect to see it fixed in future releases.
Should there be any further queries, please do not hesitate to let us know.
We've confirmed the fix for this will be coming in our next release (2018.4) which should be ready in the coming weeks.
I suggest keeping an eye on the AccountRight Blog for when this comes out. You can subscribe for notifications by clicking Options and then clicking Subscribe.
How do you propose to them work around this issue. I move to MYOB online for this feature plus job costing with the reimbursements.
This will cost by business alot of money. I can not operate without this feature. Surely more businesses are going to be in big trouble with this feature not working.
I dont have the margin to check every invoice processed. This is a nightmare. Is the solution to revert back to V2, there was no bug in that version? then until this is resolved in V4, would that be solutions?
As it was working fine then I started doubling paying invoice, almost double paid an invoice for $4044.
Can you advise from what date this has been happening, as I have sent numerous emails to my account manager with no reponse.
The bug that was found only applies to Purchases created from In Tray. This does not affect Purchases created using Enter Purchases or the Purchases Register.
There are a few workarounds on the Forum that others are using though my personal preference is to use the Enter Purchases Window to create the Purchase and then link the Attachment. However this will not utilise any OCR technology and will not pre-fill information.
I've seen one user noting down their last used Purchase Number in a spreadsheet and manually check it when creating Purchases so that they can make use of OCR and pre-filling though they need to manually check the duplicate numbers until the next release comes out.
With that said 2018.4 is in it's final stages of testing and we expect this to be released within the next week or 2.
As a small note, if you are able to return to 2018.2 (Using a backup) you will need to re-enter any missing information that wasn't in that backup that was restored.
I am talking supplier invoices numbers invoices being sent to me, we forward to the intray.
wow not an option. I am moving hundread of invoices per week the work around is really not an option the only reason I use MYOB is for the in tray and now the dont work. I would like to know if it is going to be fixed 100% I can not note down numbers and manually check when we move so many invoices it is just not professional.
I dont have to many overpayments as I process daily and pay the suppliler so they dont tend to re email me invoices that are then processed again, but working overtime to keep on top of the randam errors coming through.
2 weeks if fine to wait, now I finally know there was a bug, we would move back to V2, but I can not rekey all that information in for the past months, I wont be in business much longer if I did that.
I also need to know it will be fixed as I can not go any longer than the 2 weeks doing this it is costing me alot of time, fixing overpayments in in turn looking in useless. A bookeeper over paying invoices. Not a look I like to be honest.
Can you advise on this solution? What about if you bring the invoice in from the in tray and delete the invoice number that has been auto inserted and then re - key at that point? Will it then pick up if duplicated invoice number ?
Also can you advise the date I upgraded to V2 so I can get some idea of when there error are back too???
If you're using In Tray in 2018.3 then this bug would have affected you. Though this is fixed in our 2018.4 release which has passed testing for that specific bug and is set as fixed in this release.
With that said, you've come up with a good workaround. From my own testing that worked. If I delete it entirely and hit tab, then the next time I re-key the number in it will check for duplicates.
In terms of when you upgraded, I wouldn't know that. I can check the Serial Number when this changed to 2018.2 however this does not necessarily mean the date you upgraded as there are periodical syncs for this (Assuming you're working online as you're using In Tray) and the date/time upgraded is not the same as the time synced (Could be up to a week or 2 afterwards).
create new bill doesn't always work from in tray?

Chomp Rudest Motherfucker on HD
I watched A Boy and His Dog the other night...looked pretty good...nice healthy level of grain. I thought the colors really popped when Vic went down to Topeka. And the audio was really impressive.
I love this movie though. Don Johnson is one of the most underrated actors of all time. He gets a cheesy wrap because he was in Miami Vice (even though the first couple of seasons of Vice are easily some of the best cop dramas ever produced into a TV show). He is just such a charismatic actor....really fun to watch.

Mutilated Prey Soul Stealer
This is unexpected, but Amazon are "Shipping Now" my pre-order for the All Night Horror Marathon DVD with Schizoid. The version that was supposedly cancelled and still shows as "Currently unavailable" on their product listing.
Hmm, anybody else? :eek2:
How did we do here? Any arrive yet?
Mutilated Prey, Aug 12, 2013
Yup...my copy arrived.
Mutilated Prey said: ↑
Yeah, I got it back on Thursday.
The Vagrant & The Godsend are both 16x9 and look pretty good.
The Outing is 4x3. It looks decent, obviously sourced from an older video master. The "house" sequence at the beginning of the film looks like the contrast was tinkered with though...it looks way too bright and the blacks look quite gray. After that though, it looks fairly good. And it in uncut with the brief rape scene intact.
Schizoid is 4x3, and the print looks pretty rough.

Well now I'm conflicted. I was going to pass after I saw this posted at AVManiacs but now...
Nick H. said: ↑
I just watched THE GODSEND (and THE OUTING) from the ALL NIGHT HORROR MARATHON Vol 1, and while it's nice that someone has finally released THE GODSEND onto dvd, it's also unfortunate that they were done this way. The authoring/compression looks like garbage (on both films). It's a shame because it's obvious they had a very nice print of THE GODSEND to work with. They could've at least made these double sided dvds, giving each film it's own side.
I cannot recommend buying it. Worth a rental maybe to watch once, but I won't be watching it again. Really poor presentation of these films.
I'm curious what people think of the Sci-fi Marathon, as I've been on the fence about getting it, and now I'm leaning towards No.

I don't care about that. Do they look good enough that I should watch them. I already have a nice VHS transfer of THE OUTING. I was hoping for an upgrade.
So pass on the DVD and stick with your VHS then... nobody is forcing you to buy it. :eek2:

I'm confused so those of us who ordered the schizoid version of the horror DVD pack will get it? I ordered on amazon too forever ago and while the order has not been cancelled if I click the link to the version I ordered it says currently unavailable . I would just order the new version but I got the old one cheaper and just care about two of the films.
killit, Aug 14, 2013
killit said: ↑
I have no idea, since technically it's been cancelled by Shout Factory. Amazon probably fulfilled the early pre-orders, but maybe didn't receive enough stock to fulfill the later pre-orders.
Like I said, I chatted with someone at Amazon and they ensured me I was getting the original pressing. I don't even know if I care. Is that Whats the Matter with Helen movie any good? Maybe I'd rather have that?
I ordered mine like a day or two after the preorder went live at Amazon, and received the recalled version from them today.
Hey now, I can be a bit annoyed that a cool title like THE OUTING got shafted on what will likely be its only disc based release. Shouts not doing us any favors by releasing VHS transfers of these titles. They've killed any chance that an outfit like Synapse or Scorpion will put some effort into a proper release.

Lewis recently attended the 2018 Kohl's Kicking Western Spring Showcase Camp. His drill work was much more reflective of his talent and ability. He has one of the strongest legs in his class, and with continued focus on his command of his "A" ball, he will be one of the top kickers in the country. Lewis earned an invite to the Kohl's National Underclassman Challenge Event in January of 2018 after a great performance during the 2017 December Showcase Series. He had a big performance with multiple 50+ yard punts and also averaged 74 yards with 3.5 seconds of hang time on the second day of kick off charting. Lewis also had a solid showing at the 2017 Western December Showcase.
I am a first team ALL STATE Kicker in Arizona and proud to be the varsity kicker and punter for Saguaro High School in Scottsdale, Az. We are 12 time State Champions and winners of 6 straight including the 2018 State Championship. I am a very well rounded athlete who has a strong work ethic, great athleticism and self discipline. My kicking roots lie in 9 years of club soccer. I pride myself in being a good student who works hard to maintain a stong GPA. My personal goal is to play division I football as a kicker/punter at a Unversity with a strong business school. I come from a family of athletes, including my parents who were both state champions as well as my grandfather who won two state football championships at St. Mary's HS in Phoenix, AZ. My sister Phoebe is an accomplished volleyball player who competes in club on a national level. I personally love to surf, spend time with my friends and workout.


An impossible object is a kind of optical illusion. Impossible objects are also known as undecidable figures. In this kind of illusion, a person looks at a two-dimensional picture. The vision center of the brain does much of its work subconsciously and automatically. It interprets the figure as a three-dimensional object.
The viewer usually knows such an object is impossible soon after looking at the figure. However, the impression of a 3D figure may still remain even when the viewer knows it is impossible in reality.
Some of these figures are more subtle. In these cases it is not obvious that they are impossible right away. The viewer carefully needs to look at the geometry of the object to find out that it is indeed impossible.
Impossible objects are of interest to psychologists, mathematicians and artists.
Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvärd was the first person to draw many impossible objects. He has been called "the father of impossible figures". In 1934, he drew the Penrose triangle, some years before the Penroses. The way Reutersvärd drew it, the sides of the triangle are broken up into cubes.
From the 1930s onwards Dutch artist M.C. Escher produced many drawings with paradoxes of perspective. In 1957 he produced his first drawing containing a true impossible object: Cube with Magic Ribbons. He produced many other drawings of impossible objects, sometimes with the entire drawing being an undecidable figure. His work did much to draw the attention of the public to impossible objects. Some artists of the time are also experimenting with impossible figures, for example, Jos de Mey, Shigeo Fukuda, Sandro del Prete, István Orosz (Utisz), Guido Moretti, Tamás F. Farkas and Mathieu Hamaekers.
In Pokemon Platinum there is an area full of impossibilities such as these.


"I looked over and here comes one of the lifeguards. He said 'Everybody get out of the water. The mother was there and she was frantic, running up and down looking." Everything unfolded in less than 30 seconds, he said. A minute later, the alligator was gone. Wilson said he had seen the group walking near the water's edge and noted it was very dark at that site. They weren't standing under a light, he said. Wilson said response was quick from Disney personnel and first responders. He saw helicopters, fire department members, lifeguards, pontoon boats at work. "Disney did every damn thing they could do to help," he said. Hotel guests were not notified of the situation Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, he said.


The investigators will apply 129Xenon and/or 3He image acquisition and analysis methods in 120 asthma patient volunteers in order to characterize and probe the relationship between lung structure and function using imaging.
This is an exploratory, longitudinal study with no medication evaluated. 120 asthma patients will visit the Clinical Imaging Research Laboratories at Robarts Research Institute two times over three years: at baseline, and at three years. For the first 60 subjects there will be 3 additional visits - two visits within 4 weeks of baseline (BL+2 weeks; BL+4 weeks; BL+78 weeks) in order to help generate reproducibility data and temporal maps.
For all subjects, the Baseline visit will include 129Xe and/or 3He MRI, chest CT, sputum induction, Pulmonary Function Tests, Airwave Oscillation test, Lung Clearance Index test, BORG Dyspnea Scale, and MRC Dyspnea Scale. All procedures will be before, during and after methacholine challenge (MCh). For V2, all but CT and MCh will be acquired.
Visits 1a and 1b will include MRI, Pulmonary Function Tests including Airwave Oscillation and Lung Clearance Index, and dyspnea questionnaires; Visit 1c will also include sputum induction.
There will be a telephone call at 52+/- 2 weeks, and 104 +/- 2 weeks. to track exacerbations and update medications. Subjects will complete self-assessments in the form of a) the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire with Standardized Activities (AQLQ(S)) bi-weekly, and the Asthma Control Diary (weekly) between visits. Self-reported data (the weekly asthma control diary and bi-weekly AQLQ(S)) will be uploaded by each subject monthly to the investigators website using a confidential and password protected upload (www.imaging.robarts.ca/~gep/ForPatients.htm).
All enrolled asthma patients will undergo hyperpolarized noble gas MRI with Helium-3 and/or Xenon-129, Pulmonary Function Tests, Quality of Life Questionnaires, dyspnea scales in two visits over three years.
Hyperpolarized Helium-3 and/or Xenon-129. Noble gas magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently emerged as another research approach for the non-invasive measurement of lung structure and function, including conduction of gas through airways and into airspaces.
Noble gas MRI provides a complimentary and alternative method for evaluating lung disease and may be superior to CT because it allows simultaneous visualization of both airway and airspace structure and function.
In the investigator's opinion, subject suffers from any physical, psychological or other condition(s) that might prevent performance of the MRI, such as severe claustrophobia.

icon-location-pin Chelsea
The mecca of Manhattan sports provides a stellar experience for children of all ages looking to stay active during the summer months. Chelsea Piers' Urban Adventure camp for Teens ages 12 – 16 allows campers to tackle a wide variety of sports during its adventurous daily offerings, including kayaking, sailing, rock climbing, boxing, basketball and more.

Plus, Chelsea Piers also offers specified camp experiences for more than 16 sports. Ages 3-17.
Camp Intrepid
icon-location-pin Hell's Kitchen
Thanks to several unique offerings from the Intrepid Museum this summer, kids are sure to find a program they'll love! Many of the programs, including Spy Science (which focuses in on the concept of cracking codes like Sherlock Holmes) also offer camps at various age levels. This is the perfect place for scientists-in-the-making and junior history buffs. Ages 5–13.
Photograph: Courtesy Deer Mountain Day Camp
Deer Mountain Day Camp
Set on an idyllic mountainside with a spring-fed lake, the 25-acre camp pays particular attention to each camper's stage of development. In addition to its main programming of sports, fine arts, performing arts, outdoor adventure, swimming and special events, Deer Mountain adds more classes and trips as participants advance. Kids can choose from electives such as wire art, Claymation, hip-hop dance and handball, to name a few. Ages 3–15.
Camp Lakota
Though this camp is just under two hours from NYC, the majestic Catskill Mountains couldn't feel farther away from the bustle of Manhattan. Two hundred scenic acres are filled to the brim with activities! The options are endless: Soccer, lacrosse, basketball, softball, GaGa and tennis are just a few of the sports on offer, and kids will also get their fill of water sports such as sailing, swim team, banana boats and waterskiing. Lakota also caters to equestrians, gymnasts, artists and skateboard fanatics (the campground just got a new skateboard park!) Ages 6–16.
Asphalt Green Summer Day Camp
icon-location-pin Upper East Side
Your ball of energy can choose between a swim, sports or arts camp with expert instructors. Swimmers can tucker themselves out with endless pool time, young athletes will be in their element as they play baseball, tennis and other team sports and creatives can express themselves in many media, including the circus arts and film. Each program includes exciting weekly field trips that'll appeal to all, such as a Mets game or rock climbing at the Cliffs in Queens. Ages 4.5–13.
STREB Summer Circus Camp
icon-location-pin Williamsburg
Step right up and get ready to star in your own amazing three-ring circus. Young acrobats will swing on the trapeze, flip the day away on the trampoline and balance on a tightrope. They'll learn the techniques of real-life action hero (and Macarthur Grant winner) Elizabeth Streb, whose motion lexicon Pop Action combines stage and street performance art. Ages 6–13.

Row New York's Summer Learn-to-Row Camps
icon-location-pin Inwood
All skill levels are invited to spend their summer on the water, making friends with team members and learning the fundamentals of rowing. For those who take their water adventures seriously and have victory on their brains, there is a competitive camp (June 24–Aug 9) that will satisfy the urge to race. Time to grab the paddles and get moving, kids! Grades 7–12.
The Nature Place Day Camp
The 200-acre camp is perfect for exploring the great outdoors. Kids get their hands dirty roaming and working in the farmland, gardens, fields and ponds—plus they master valuable farm skills such as harvesting crops and taking care of cute little chickens. Art projects, noncompetitive sports, hiking, music and a hilarious storyteller further round out the experience. Farm and Garden Days offer your children even more opportunities to help with the harvest and animal work. Ages 4–16.
Usdan Center for the Creative and Performing Arts
icon-location-pin Long Island
Whether your kids' creativity is focused in one area of the arts or if their passion for performing, creating and imagining cannot be contained, Usdan
allows campers to curate a program that is right for them. From a variety of classes in music, dance, theater, creative writing and visual arts, children choose a major and minor to fill their days at the beautiful Wheatley Heights campus. Classes appeal to both traditionalists and contemporary performers, with options that include ballet or hip-hop for dancers or musical theater and game-heavy actor's craft for thespians. For kids who want to work with their hands, classes in metalworking, archery, organic gardening and LEGO design keep their bodies and minds occupied. Ages 7–18.
Center for Architecture Camp
icon-location-pin Greenwich Village
Young New Yorkers who never cease to be amazed by skyscrapers can imagine and build their own models—after they've learned how to handle the design challenges of really tall structures. Similar five-day programs exist for treehouses and bridges, and other offerings allow future architects to study digital design using 3-D computer modeling or old-school freehand drawing. For the latter, campers explore the city to sketch various architectural wonders. In all sessions, participants take home the projects they create. Grades 3–12.
Lee Wexler
A Westside Experiment—Young Actor's Laboratory at IRT Theater
icon-location-pin West Village
This inclusive program offers teens who are deaf and hard-of-hearing a chance to immerse themselves in theater. Participants will cover a wide range of areas—script writing, acting and improv, to name a few—in order to get a sense of how productions are brought to life. This year's offering will pay homage to the venue's location and include a downtown twist. Young actors need not have prior experience to apply. Ages 13–17.

Independent Lake Camp
True to its name, Independent Lake Camp is all about kids doing
it their way, whether that means sticking with a close-knit group of friends for go-karting, a cappella or powerboating on the 100-acre
lake. It could also mean breaking away from the herd to explore tagging graffiti, ride the rails in the state-of-the-art skate park or hold on tight on the giant swing. Activities even include magic sessions, digital arts like building your own computer or making your own game, and circus arts like trapeze and unicycle. The vibe here is relaxed but well supervised. Ages 6–17.

Bandwriting Collective
icon-location-pin Midtown West
Professional songwriters, musicians and producers mentor burgeoning creatives at Smash Studio and Shelter Island Sound, where Rihanna and other celeb artists record. The focus is on empowerment through creation: Campers write and record original songs, and parents can attend open studios in the first week to listen to the tunes' progress. Each session culminates with a performance at the Slipper Room, and kids take home a CD of their work. Ages 8–18.
Photograph: Courtesy National Museum of Mathematics
MoMath Summer Camp
Mathematics might get a bad rep in school, but MoMath makes the subject a whole lot more interesting, especially when there's no homework or tests! Campers are divided by grade level: the Epsilons (first to third grade) and Deltas (fourth to sixth grade). Throughout the week, they tackle creative projects and interactive programs while exploring new and unfamiliar areas of the field that often aren't taught at school—Perplexing Puzzles and Game Theory, to name a few. When it's time to refuel, the groups venture across the street to Madison Square Park for lunch, weather permitting. Ages 6–12.

WCS Zoo and Aquarium Camps
Thanks to the fantastic Wildlife Conservation Society-backed zoos (and aquarium) in NYC, families have the opportunity to see animals from across the globe without leaving the city. The Bronx Zoo—as well as the Central Park Zoo, Prospect Park Zoo, Queens Zoo and the New York Aquarium—all invite kids to learn about numerous species through hands-on summer programs. Offerings are slightly different for each location, but youngsters are guaranteed to get up close with all sorts of creatures, explore cool exhibits, conduct science experiments and learn from the zookeepers. Campers of all ages (starting at 12 mos) get to visit exhibits, solve animal mysteries and enjoy the fun. All ages.
Photograph: Courtesy Camp Hi-Rock
Camp Hi-Rock
Kids will hardly be able to control their excitement on the drive to Hi-Rock. Between the picturesque views, wooden cabins and myriad activities to try, it's an idyllic camp setting. Gender- and age-specific cabins make for a slumber-party–style experience, plus everyone (boys and girls!) comes together for meals and activities. Whether your kiddos are busy scaling a high-ropes course, geocaching in the Berkshires, swimming in the pristine 90-acre lake or playing capture the flag, one thing's certain: Every summer here is definitely one to remember. Ages 7–16.
Photograph: Courtesy A Class Act
Broadway Boot Camp
The first step on the road to making it on the Great White Way is learning how to sing the notes and tap your toes, which is exactly what real working Broadway professionals teach the young performers at A Class Act NY's all-levels-welcome Boot Camp. During the course, kids, tweens and teens master a variety of numbers that span musical theater's history, from the lively show tunes
of the Rodgers & Hammerstein–led golden age to the innovative works of today. To round out the experience, other workshops teach theater techniques like stage combat and improvisation. Camp ends with a children's theater showcase, during which the future stars present their very best numbers. The offerings for 2019 include, The Performing Arts Experience, Broadway Bound Camp, Annie Kids Workshop Production and more. Learn about all of the programs here. Ages 7–18.
Photograph: Courtesy Camp Echo
Camp Echo
Camp Echo encompasses 200 acres of fields and trails and plenty for kids to enjoy, complete with art class, boating, horseback riding and traditional camp activities like roasting marshmallows and flag-raising/lowering! We especially love that every cabin comes up with a "Code of Living"—a set of rules created by bunkmates that everyone can agree to follow during their summer together. Did we mention there are also milk and cookies before bed? Ages 6–17.
French Woods Festival of the Performing Arts Camp
Six activity sessions each day give campers every chance to pursue their passions. Three periods are taken up by "majors," or concentrations that stay the same for a full three-week session, and these include classes as varied as learning an instrument or playing in a rock band, perfecting that pirouette in ballet, grasping the art of leather craft or woodworking—even disappearing in a magic class. The remaining periods are used for "minors," which are chosen each morning. Kids always have the opportunity to try a different skill outside their wheelhouse, work
more on their favorite subject or cut loose with waterfront activities like swimming, zip-lining or clowning around (literally, in a circus class). Ages 7–17.
Photograph: Courtesy Adirondack Camp
Adirondack Camp
Tucked away on a New England mountainside, this charming upstate camp invites boys and girls from around the world for an unforgettable summer. Adirondack Camp offers two-week sessions for seven, eight and nine-year-old first-timers, making it a great option for new campers (and, of course, there are full-summer session lengths for kids who just can't get enough). Families can also help their kids pick their daily itineraries, which means that each camper can either focus largely on their favorite activities (like arts and crafts) or try something new (like wakeboarding or archery) for their time at Adirondack. Ages 7–17.
Writopia Camp
The WriCampia program in the Poconos is perfect for those craving to pen the next great American novel. Buses transport campers from Manhattan and Westchester for a 12-day escape filled with intimate writing workshops and creative electives. Published authors and playwrights help kids learn the secrets to memoir writing, poetry and what makes a great novel, while campers also enjoy arts activities such as photography, ceramics, theater, zine-making and filmmaking. In the evening, everyone gathers around the campfire to swap stories or test their team-building skills in a scavenger hunt or "escape the room" challenge. Ages 7–18.

Marymount STEAM Camp
Nurture your little scientist with STEAM projects and topics during the summer at Marymount Manhattan. Kids can learn how science is an integral part of catching the bad guys during the CSI course or learn what surgeons deal with on a daily basis with the surgical technique course. There's a bit of everything for all interests: coding, biology, video animation, engineering and so much more. Field trips and swimming instruction are not included in science, engineer and design camps. Grades 4–8.
Camp Chinqueka
The active participants at Camp Awosting's all-girls sister camp are sure to give the boys a run for their money when it comes time to compete. With everything from swimming to sailing, a water trampoline, on-land sports, dance, drama and gymnastics on the agendas, the campers rarely stand still, and they are encouraged to do it all! Mornings and afternoons are packed with exciting happenings, and when the sun goes down, there are coed dances (complete with DJs), movie nights and more to keep everyone entertained. Adventurous campers will love the chance to venture out for a weekly overnight camping trip to Litchfield Hills for campfires complete with ghost stories, plus visits to their brother camp just five miles away. Ages 6–16.
Camp Awosting
Set on the shores of Lake Bantam in Connecticut, this family-run camp for boys ditches electronics and phones in favor of fun outdoor pursuits. The daily schedule features three morning activities and two afternoon electives; campers can pursue aquatics, sports, the arts, science, boating and more, although Awosting throws in "extreme" options, like motocross and mountain-boarding. The boys sometimes join the girls from nearby sister camp Chinqueka for joint activities, dances and off-camp trips. Ages 6–16.

These Terms override and replace any conflicting terms or conditions included in any order or other document, unless CMA has expressly accepted such terms in writing.
The Products are intended solely for resale by Customer in the United States or Canada. These Terms are not a commitment to sell any particular quantity of Products. These Terms set forth the terms and conditions that will apply if any such sales are made. All orders are subject to acceptance by CMA. CMA may require Customer to provide purchase orders, and Customer authorizes CMA to rely on Customer's list of authorized buyers, if any. Customer agrees to pay for all goods delivered as ordered, even in the event that Customer's representative is not present to acknowledge delivery.
Customer shall pay prices and associated charges applicable at the time an order is accepted, in accordance with these Terms and any additional terms and conditions in CMA's invoices. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, payment in full is due upon delivery.
Payment Terms Applicable to Credit Customers.
For purchases on credit, as approved by CMA and indicated on the applicable CMA invoice, the terms of this paragraph apply. Unless otherwise provided on the applicable CMA invoice, all payments are due Net 30 days from invoice date. No discounts for early payment. Customer agrees to pay amounts and other amounts payable hereunder. Absent specific remittance instructions, payments will be applied in such order and amounts as CMA may determine in its sole discretion. Customer will remain responsible for all amounts payable to CMA even if the Customer's credit account is terminated. Any invoiced amounts not paid when due will be subject to a finance charge equal to the lesser of the maximum rate allowed by law and a periodic rate of 1.5% per month (18% per annum), applied to the unpaid balance from the due date until paid.

Q: O programa trava quando chega no while Fiz um programinha básico sobre calcular potenciação, porém quando chega no while trava, e até o terminal eu tenho que reiniciar. Assim não consigo continuar o programa. Até tentei mudar a maneira do Scanner porém cheguei a conclusão que era o while mesmo.
import java.util.Scanner;

    int c = 0; //contador
    int p = 1; //potencia

    int a;
    int b;
    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

    System.out.println("Digite o valor da base:");
    a = input.nextInt();
    System.out.println("Digite o valor do expoente:");
    b = input.nextInt();

    while (c != b){
         p = p * a;
         c = c++;

        }

    System.out.printf("A potencia de int %d como base e int %d como expoente eh: %d\n",a, b, p);
    input.close();
}

A: O maior problema é que o c++ já está fazendo o incremento na variável, o ++ é um operador que causa efeito colateral e muda o valor da variável, então a atribuição do resultado nela mesma está fazendo algo indevido e causando problema.
Na verdade o código poderia ser melhor organizado e dar nomes melhores para as variáveis, assim pode evitar comentários.
Poderia usar um for mas preferi deixar assim porque poderia ser exigência do exercício.
import java.util.Scanner;

class Main {
    public static void main (String[] args) {
        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("Digite o valor da base:");
        int base = input.nextInt();
        System.out.println("Digite o valor do expoente:");
        int expoente = input.nextInt();
        int contador = 0;
        int potencia = 1;
        while (contador != expoente) {
            potencia *= base;
            contador++;
        }
        System.out.printf("A potencia de int %d como base e int %d como expoente eh: %d\n", base, expoente, potencia);

The opposition benches in the upper house parliament Friday demanded to present the details of the bailout package negotiations between government and the delegation of IMF in the parliament.
During the Senate session of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Senator Sherry Rehman said that the common man was already worried from the price hike and the increase in tariff of electricity and gas has added the problems of people.
Government should inform the parliament that at what conditions government was taking loans from IMF, Senator Rehman added. She said that government has no policy to resolve the problems of the country.
"The most pressing issue at the moment is the economic deficit the country is facing. There are many people whose stoves are not burning due to the alarming inflation in the country which is nearing double digits. The working class continues to suffer as they try to make ends meet. There appears to be no subsidy or relief package for them," the senator continued.
Criticising the government's failure to deliver, she said, "This government came in on the back of big promises, but it is clear they have no intention of doing anything but talking about media optics of austerity like leaving big government houses while quietly living in them".
"They are willing to make appearances on television shows but do not want to be answerable to the Parliament. They need to shake off this nonchalant approach to governance. Why is no relevant minister ever bothered with parliamentary answers but has so much time for television shows?" Rehman asked.
Rehman concluded her speech by saying, "What has this government done apart from its continued witch hunt? All the tall claims of security savings and breaking begging bowls are not manifested in the decisions made by this government since it came into power".
Jamaat Islami (JI) Senator Mushtaq Ahmed Khan asked the government that what steps were being taken for the release of Aafia Siddiqui, the entire nation was very hopeful for her safe return to the country.
Senator Mir Kabeer Shahi said that foreign fishing trawlers carry out illegal fishing near coastal areas of Balochistan and take heavy quantity of fish with them. If government would not take any action on the matter, then a time would come that no fish would be available near Pakistani coasts, the senator warned. He alleged that all the business of illicit fishing were being carried out in connivance with the officials of fisheries department.
He said that under the prime minister's scholarship scheme, students from Balochistan were given admission in the Army Burn Hall College Abbottabad, but now they were being expelled out from the educational institution due to lack of funds. The senator urged PM Imran Khan to take immediate notice to save the future of the students.


In the past year and a bit, I have been really getting into a new miniatures game. This is unusual for me, as I had kind of sworn off them a bit after getting somewhat tired of the prices and shenanigans of Games Workshop, and a perceived lack of time to paint anything I was actually interested in, such as my Hordes starter set from Privateer Press.
Malifaux 2E completely updates the rules of the game, adding strategic depth, clarity, and choices. New stories, new factions, and new characters continue to pull you through the Breach and leave you battling for opportunity and survival in the dangerous world of Malifaux.
The fictional universe of Malifaux as presented in the rules books and the online Malifaux Record and Wyrd Cronicles is both a city-state and a world in a parallel dimension. This universe is also the setting for the role playing game Through the Breach. The first known breach (also called The Breach of The Great Boundary) to this world was created in 1787 after our own world was threatened by the decline of magic and magicians looking for a new source of magic discovered a world separated from our by a thin barrier. The creation of the breach destroyed the city surrounding the ritual site ripping the life force from its inhabitants creating a new equilibrium between the two worlds. Beyond the breach was discovered the city of Malifaux, supprisingly similar to many of our own but devoid of inhabitants. The new world turned into a new frontier when crumbling mining towns surrounding the city were rebuilt into boom towns in the search and trade of soulstones, the source of magic. With exploration continuing during the following decade, hostile natives called Neverborn were encroached upon. Tombs were discovered and with them the magic of resurrection. Discovered too were intelligent machines powered by soulstone.
In 1797, the breach was destabilised by a blizzard collapsing while smoke and the sound of battle was heard Earthside. After turmoil the Guild was formed by those who had made the Breach in the first place, controlling the dwindling resource of soulstones left Earthside and preparing for its reopening. In 1897 the Breach spontaneously reopened. The Guild was ready and took control with the Breach and the reopened frontier fuelling a new boomtrade in Soulstone.
The present is 1901 Earthside. The Guild's control is precarious. Lesser, unstable breaches have appeared. A significant part of the workforce have organised themselves in the Miners and Steamfitters Union and smuggling is rife.
The background is actually quite rich and the characters all seem well thought-out and bursting with personality.
I've picked up a few of these sets so far and have been pleasantly surprised by the style and quality of the models. For people like myself who are perhaps used to Games Workshop or Privateer Press models, the Malifaux miniatures are very different. For one, they are very fine, with some very intricate detail, slim models and very thin weapons and accessories. It's actually quite daunting at first to remove the pieces from the sprues, and I have had to repair one small breakage to Nicodem's walking stick.
In both cases, I hope to get some better photos sorted out soon(ish)!
I am really enjoying my time building and painting these miniatures and look forward to both expanding my existing crews and branching out in some other directions. I have particular plans for an Outcast/Ressurectionist crew based around tormented spirits.
Next time, I intend to take a look at the rules of the game and consider what sets it apart from other miniature games.
Nice. How are the plastics by the way? One thing I dislike about Privateer Press's plastics is that they are very hard plastic (I think a mix of resin) and it's so hard to sand them.
The plastic is more like the GW plastic and is easy to cut or sand. Some pieces are very small, and some you really feel sgould not be their own piece, but rather part of a larger bit.

Q: plot with overlapping points I have data in R with overlapping points.
x = c(4,4,4,7,3,7,3,8,6,8,9,1,1,1,8)
y = c(5,5,5,2,1,2,5,2,2,2,3,5,5,5,2)
plot(x,y)

How can I plot these points so that the points that are overlapped are proportionally larger than the points that are not. For example, if 3 points lie at (4,5), then the dot at position (4,5) should be three times as large as a dot with only one point.

A: Here's one way using ggplot2:
x = c(4,4,4,7,3,7,3,8,6,8,9,1,1,1,8)
y = c(5,5,5,2,1,2,5,2,2,2,3,5,5,5,2)
df <- data.frame(x = x,y = y)
ggplot(data = df,aes(x = x,y = y)) + stat_sum()

By default, stat_sum uses the proportion of instances. You can use raw counts instead by doing something like:
ggplot(data = df,aes(x = x,y = y)) + stat_sum(aes(size = ..n..))

A: Here's a simpler (I think) solution:
x <- c(4,4,4,7,3,7,3,8,6,8,9,1,1,1,8)
y <- c(5,5,5,2,1,2,5,2,2,2,3,5,5,5,2)
size <- sapply(1:length(x), function(i) { sum(x==x[i] & y==y[i]) })
plot(x,y, cex=size)

A: ## Tabulate the number of occurrences of each cooordinate
df <- data.frame(x, y)
df2 <- cbind(unique(df), value = with(df, tapply(x, paste(x,y), length)))

## Use cex to set point size to some function of coordinate count
## (By using sqrt(value), the _area_ of each point will be proportional
##  to the number of observations it represents)
plot(y ~ x, cex = sqrt(value), data = df2, pch = 16)

A: You didn't really ask for this approach but alpha may be another way to address this:
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(data.frame(x=x, y=y), aes(x, y)) + geom_point(alpha=.3, size = 3)

A: You need to add the parameter cex to your plot function. First what I would do is use the function as.data.frame and table to reduce your data to unique (x,y) pairs and their frequencies:
new.data = as.data.frame(table(x,y))
new.data = new.data[new.data$Freq != 0,] # Remove points with zero frequency

The only downside to this is that it converts numeric data to factors. So convert back to numeric, and plot!
plot(as.numeric(new.data$x), as.numeric(new.data$y), cex = as.numeric(new.data$Freq))

A: You may also want to try sunflowerplot.
sunflowerplot(x,y)

A: Let me propose alternatives to adjusting the size of the points.  One of the drawbacks of using size (radius?  area?) is that the reader's evaluation of spot size vs. the underlying numeric value is subjective.
So, option 1:  plot each point with transparency --- ninja'd by Tyler!
option 2: use jitter to push your data around slightly so the plotted points don't overlap.

A: A solution using lattice and table ( similar to @R_User but no need to remove 0 since lattice do the job)
   dt <-  as.data.frame(table(x,y))
   xyplot(dt$y~dt$x, cex = dt$Freq^2, col =dt$Freq)

Holy cow, so how did the end of the year already arrive, is it really that possible? This year has been a whirl wind of events for sure and I am excited to say hello to 2014, but also sad to say goodbye to 2013... All in all the new year will be a fresh start. I have a few personal resolutions I'm going to be working hard to achieve. One of them I hope to share here on the blog monthly, which is that of creative an illustrative and/or designed piece as a freebie for my readers. So here you have it, my first doodle for the year ahead, a digital desktop for you to enjoy. To download this piece please click on the link below. Happy almost 2014!
I really wish I knew more about this talented artist, but I didn't find any info other than these gorgeous pieces an a name of Alex Badea. He seems to have a tumblr where I found a collection of his illustrative work but if you know more about this artist, please feel free to share a link in the comment section below so I can add it to the initial post. Can you believe that 2013 is almost at an end, happy new week ahead!
These monsters are amazing, aren't they!?! The color palette is equally as fabulous too. These stylized characters where doodled up by artist, Christopher Lee. To see more of his works click on the link below. Happy Color Palette. Happy Friday. Happy weekend!
I would love to say I've traveled about the US some, sadly I still haven't, but maybe someday I'll make my way to California. It's a place I've always wanted to visit, maybe live there if the opportunity arose, but overall I would love to see it some day. San Francisco seems so fascinating to me. This photo of the trolleys captured my initial thought about the city, an though I'm not to sure if it's as lovely as pictured above I can hope it would be.
So my little brother just celebrated a birthday this past week. An since I have been trying to practice my hand lettering skills and thought it would be fun to letter a little something special with him in mind. You may see more of my doodles over on my prior blog or if you follow me via IG I've hash tagged all of them with #sandidoodles Need help with a doodle? Email me an let's chat, I'd love to draw you a little something special. Happy Friday. Happy weekend!
I take highly to analyzing color palettes. Matching colors together and creating compelling solutions not only for design purposes but for use in my day to day life, including wardrobe, and overall home decor themes. Over on my prior blog I shared "Color Palette", a color related series, and you may see prior colorways over here but I loved this series so much I am going to continue it here on Creatively Curated and I hope you enjoy it.
I love wrapping gifts, especially with kraft paper. In years past I would tie bakers twine around them and call it good, but this year I've been strongly drawn to black and white plus the mix of tan. I'm trying to add a bit of that into this years decorating with a few extra touches too. Here's a few inspirational pieces I gathered. So is all your holiday wrapping done for the season?
I love this photo! It's from earlier this past Summer, on the Cape in Massachusetts, where I grew up and where my family all still resides. My brother and I had taken a trip to the beach an walked about for a bit to explore. This beach is beyond amazing. The marks in the sand from where the water hit, the clouds and blue sky above, the color of the rocks covered in algae. Everything about this photo I just love. And that guy in the photo, on the rock, well that's my younger brother Steven. Today's his birthday. An I'm proud of him every day, but especially today as he decided to celebrate his birthday on a new adventure, somewhere sunny, somewhere new he's never been to before, exploring the great outdoors, an creating his own special memories on this day. I hope your birthday vacation is going well little brother, much love and missing you always.
I love the holidays. Especially the fact that I love giving gifts, an I'm probably one of the only weirdo's out there who get's excited about wrapping gifts too. I love packaging things and making a gift look all pretty an special. If I could included gift wrapper on my resume, I surely would, but that may seem odd to others I'm sure... But with that in mind I've always had a hard time being on the other end of the spectrum, the recipient. Don't get me wrong, I love gifts, but I'm not the type who has ever wrote a list or asked for specific things for that matter. Though I'm uncomfortable an feel greedy if I reply, I was recently asked, show me things you love. Which is an easier concept for me. So if you knew me well, you'd know it would look a little like this (above). Enjoy and happy new week ahead!

I often find myself day dreaming of taking a vacation. I really haven't ever been on a proper vacation before. Sure, I've traveled here and there for a wedding or two but traveling even outside of the states really hasn't been possible at this point in my life. But someday, it will be. I promise myself that. But for now I'm collecting points of interest that excite me. Places where the buildings have character and history that tell a story. Places where the plants, flowers and tree's I've never seen in person. Places where the weather is warmer, or maybe colder than I'm accustom too. All in all this new series "Where's There" is just that. A place of interest that I'm curious to know more of, somewhere new that excites me, and maybe, just maybe, somewhere I'll visit someday. If you've visited and/or live in any of the places I plan to share here please let me know, I'd love to hear all about it. Happy Friday, Happy weekend ahead!
Loving this illustration, and many other doodles by the talented Brigette Barrager. Her play on color, and her stylized characters has really created this overall retro feel dated from the 60's - 70's, which I just love, love!

Whatever caused the death of gaoled Northern military politician Shehu Musa Yar'Adua'on 9 December, it has sent a powerful message that Northerners can expect no special favours from General Sani Abacha's military regime. The lack of any government announcement about Yar'Adua's death prompted his supporters to speak of government complicity or at the least, indifference, which allowed him to fall into a coma in Abakiliki prison before before being flown to the Ibadan teaching hospital where he died. On 14 December, thousands of Yar'Adua's supporters marched through his home town, Katsina, calling for Abacha to go.

Canadian Fencers Win a Record Nine Medals at the 2019 Pan Am Games in Lima
Canadian Fencing Federation – Canada started the team fencing competition at the 2019 Pan Am Games in Lima, Peru with five individual medals under its belt and was able to add another four medals in team competition to bring its total medal tally to nine medals, a record for Canadian fencing at Pan Am Games.
Women's Foil lead the way winning the first team medal for Canada. The team of Alanna Goldie (Calgary, AB), Jessica Guo (Toronto, ON), and Eleanor Harvey (Hamilton, ON), along with reserve fencer Gabriella Page (Blainville, QC) came away with a silver medal after losing a close bout to USA 45-39.
"We weren't at a hundred percent today and it's good to come out with a tight match when we weren't at our best," said Alanna Goldie. "It shows that when we are fencing at one hundred percent, we're going to have them."
Canada's Men's Foil Team was the next to medal, winning bronze against Colombia 45-29. The team of Maximilien Van Haaster (Montreal, QC), Eli Schenkel (Canadian living in the US), Misha Sweet (Winnipeg, MB) and reserve fencer Seraphim Jarov (Surrey, BC) lost a very close semifinal bout against Brazil 45-43. The team was able to rebound in the bronze medal final with a resounding win over Colombia.
Gabriella Page (Blainville, QC), Marissa Ponich (Edmonton, AB), Pamela Brind'Amour (St. Martine, QC) along with reserve Eleanor Harvey (Hamilton, ON) brought home Canada's second team bronze medal. The women's sabre team defeated Argentina in the quarter-finals 45-33 but lost their semi-final bout to the Dominican Republic 45-42. The team came back strong in their bronze medal final to win 45-38 against Mexico.
Canada's second silver medal in team came in the last day of the team competition. Canada's Men's Sabre team of Shaul Gordon (Richmond, BC), Joseph Polossifakis (Laval, QC), Fares Arfa (Laval, QC) and reserve Eli Schenkel defeated Colombia 45-34 to advance to the final against the USA. It was a very close bout with Gordon mounting an exciting comeback in the final round, but the Americans were able to take the win 45-41 to give Canada a silver medal. "I think this was one of the closest bouts we have had against the US," said Gordon, "And it doesn't feel too good right now because we could almost taste it … but coming up short by a few points hurts."
Canada leaves the 2019 Pan Am Games in Lima, Peru with a total of nine medals, including three silver and six bronze.

Big Changes Could Be Coming From These Industrial Giants
General Electric Co. and United Technologies Corp. both need to release value for shareholders.

By coincidence, General Electric Co. (NYSE:GE), and United Technologies Corp. (NYSE:RTX) are both under significant pressure to undertake far-reaching strategic restructurings. Let's take a look at what's going on, and how these changes might affect the investment proposition for each stock.
UTX data by YCharts
General Electric needs to restore confidence
As you can see in the chart above, both stocks have been somewhat disappointing so far this year. General Electric's weak performance has forced management to lower earnings expectations, and question marks have been raised about the quality of GE's earnings.
Clearly, new CEO John Flannery has a job to do to restore confidence in the company's strategic direction and its ability to hit earnings guidance. The latter issue could begin to be resolved by Flannery formally abandoning the target of $2 EPS by 2018 -- a figure analysts don't think GE will hit. In a nutshell, GE needs to learn a lesson from what Honeywell International's management did following its disappointing earnings in 2016.
Turning to strategic considerations, Flannery has promised investors a comprehensive, no-holds-barred review of GE's portfolio. There are reasons to believe that restructuring -- perhaps with a sale or spinoff of a significant business -- would enhance value for shareholders. Of the big four segments, healthcare is the most likely candidate.
Power is a core GE business, and management is busy integrating Alstom's energy assets, and driving earnings growth by cutting production costs on the H-class gas turbine. Aviation is also a core business, and cutting production costs on the cutting-edge LEAP turbofan engine, which it's building through its CFM joint venture, will be key earnings driver in the coming years. Meanwhile, the recently closed purchase of Baker-Hughes, which made GE the No. 2 oilfield service provider in the world, suggests management sees oil and gas as an integral part of the company's future.

However, selling or spinning off healthcare -- Flannery was formerly the CEO of GE Healthcare -- makes sense for a number of reasons. There is arguably very little cross-fertilization of ideas and technology between healthcare and the other segments, in contrast to how oil and gas, power, aviation, and transportation might, for example, trade insights on turbines and engines. Moreover, a separation would create two companies with differing end-market dynamics and cash-flow-generation properties. This would arguably lead investors to value them higher separately. For similar reasons, GE rival Siemens is on track to separate its healthcare unit from its energy and industrial businesses.
In short, a sale or spinoff of GE Healthcare could revitalize confidence in the business, and firmly focus GE on becoming the kind of digital industrial company that recently departed CEO Jeff Immelt dreamed of creating.
United Technologies has a lot on its plate
The stock price chart tells you a lot about United Technologies in 2017. In general, it has been a year of quiet execution on the company's long-term strategic plans. Its Otis Elevator subsidiary is growing unit orders in China, and there has been some relative improvement in pricing conditions. At Pratt & Whitney, the geared turbofan (GTF) production schedule remains on track even as the company still has technical issues to fully iron out. Meanwhile, UTC Aerospace Systems (UTAS) is offsetting weak original equipment sales on legacy aircraft with strong aftermarket sales, and the climate, controls and security (CCS) segment is growing organic equipment sales strongly again -- they were up 11% in the second quarter.

In short, the company is broadly on track with its long-term plans, but investors have taken a dim view of its intended $30 billion acquisition of aviation equipment supplier Rockwell Collins. It's a major bet on aerospace, and the combined company will offer a wide range of products from avionics, flight controls, and aircraft interiors (Rockwell Collins) to mechanically actuated systems, aero-structures, landing gear, and aircraft engines (United Technologies).
The question is whether United Technologies is biting off more than it can chew with the acquisition. Bearing in mind the ongoing need for execution at Otis, UTAS, and CCS, management has a lot on its hands. Moreover, Rockwell Collins itself has a newly acquired business, BE Aerospace (aircraft seating and cabin equipment) to integrate as well.
Moreover, a quick look at United Technologies' overall valuation versus its peers suggests there is an opportunity for management to release value. For example, KONE competes with Otis, Ingersoll-Rand competes with CCS, and Spirit AeroSystems is a major aerospace equipment supplier. All three trade at higher valuations than United Technologies, while Honeywell's continues to command a premium relative to its rival.

In the press release announcing the Rockwell deal, United Technologies CEO Greg Hayes conveyed a willingness to take restructuring actions: "Once we have completed the integration of Rockwell Collins and made progress toward reducing leverage back to historical levels, we will have an opportunity to explore a full range of strategic options for UTC."
All told, both stocks have upside opportunities, but there is a key difference. There are reasons to like GE, but in my opinion, it's not worth buying until the conclusions of Flannery's review are released and investors fully understand the direction he wants to take. Any failure to take decisive action could weigh on the stock.
The difference with United Technologies is the stock looks a good value with or without significant restructuring. Before the Rockwell Collins deal was announced United Technologies looked undervalued compared to its peers, and management thought so too.
The case for buying the stock rests on the idea that the company is going through a couple of years of transition while it's positioning itself to generate long-term earnings and cash flow from the GTF/Otis elevator servicing in China/new aircraft programs--something the addition of Rockwell Collins will help out with. In other words, United Technologies can release value for shareholders with the successfull execution of its existing plans as well as by engaging portfolio restructuring.

This seemingly small conversation in the minutiae of life is what Old Songs Inc. is all about. It was no different on a Monday morning when a friendly resident stopped by for some guidance. Joy Bennett, the establishment's executive director, took three minutes to talk with the customer.
Many know Old Songs from the Old Songs Folk Festival that camps out in Altamont each summer. Bennett, who was hired as the new executive director only seven months ago, found Old Songs through the aforementioned festival and has been attending for 27 years.
Bennett has performed at the festival for years. She has been a singer in the Johnson Girls, a maritime chanting group, for the past 23 years. Bennett explained how the group broke the glass ceiling for its genre in 1997.
Bennett got her start when she was younger. She volunteered at the South Street Sea Port Museum in Manhattan. She quickly grew to love the chants and was hooked. She took a 10-year break from music entirely but found herself coming back and realizing she never wanted to leave again.
Bennett's own trials and tribulations are partially what have made her go from fan to employee. Being a performer, she knows what other performers need. Having been in her position and been a part of planning shows, she can also easily organize shows and be the voice of the venue.
Bennett explained that in the 38 years it's been in business, the organization developed over a period of time — until 2003, it didn't even have a place to call home. This all changed when the Spences bought the Old Songs Community Arts Center, a special location that hosts a performing studio, office spaces and classrooms. With all of the classes it offers, the organization needs the space to accommodate and the space to grow.
The staff sticks true to the roots of their employer — Bennett said all staff members have a love for music and an appreciation for the work that goes into it.
While sometimes it's hard to avoid conflicts entirely, Bennett said she makes sure the venue does whatever it can to go that extra mile for its guests. It seems to be working; each year, the venue hosts names you know, names you don't know and names you definitely should know.
The festival each summer is just that — participatory. The three-day festival has everything a music lover could want. Taking place from June 28 to June 30 at the Altamont Fairgrounds, Bennett promises there will be "something for everyone" at this year's festival. Joining the lineup are groups like Emma's Revolution, Bill Staines, John McCutcheon, Poor Man's Gambit, Magpie and Mulebone, just to name a few. Parents can kick back and sing along to their favorite tunes while children can join the Great Groove Band if they want a chance to get on the main stage for themselves.
Bennett said the concerts are often a hit. By the end of the weekend, the students not only perform a concert, but they've learned new skills most of the time and they work together to create something. No stress, no competition, just music.
The adults have their own party too. A nighttime dance is hosted from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. on festival nights. Bennett said some people come just to attend that, albeit with a nominal fee.
The feelings of friendship and closeness that the festival — and organization in general — offers is what keeps Bennett coming back year after year.

Ariana Grande, Kacey Musgraves & More Shine On Billboard Women In Music Red Carpet
The red carpet was poppin' at the 2018 Billboard Women in Music ceremony, and we've got all the best looks here! See honorees like Ariana Grande and Kacey Musgraves absolutely slay!
Ariana Grande, 25, Kacey Musgraves, 30, and so many more of our favorite queens shined on the red carpet at Billboard's Women in Music event on December 6 in New York City. These talented ladies have dominated the music industry, and looked confident and powerful for the ceremony celebrating their achievements. Per usual, everyone looked absolutely fabulous, too! It's safe to say that the woman of the night, Ariana, stole the whole damn show. Ari has been honored as Billboard's Woman of the Year, and she dressed to impress in a strapless purple dress.
Meanwhile, country starlet Kacey looked very slick with her glossy hair, gold accents and thought-out color coordination. Dua Lipa, 23, another force on the music charts, graced the honorary carpet in a camel menswear co-ord. It was a yin and yang of masculine and feminine energy, as her loose blazer and tailored trousers complemented the "One Kiss" singer's sexy bustier! It was a bold outfit choice, fitting for the woman who's the cover star on British Vogue's forthcoming "The Future Issue."
Janelle Monáe looked spectacular in another one of her stunningly ethereal ensembles. The Dirty Computer singer/songwriter was named the Billboard Women in Music Trailblazer, and her outfit was befit of that title. Prior to the event, Janelle told Billboard that, "With songs like 'Django Jane' and 'Make Me Feel' and 'PYNK,' I wanted to be as bold as possible in making statements around agency, around women's bodies and rights — us taking back the mic and letting you know that you don't own us and we won't be controlled."
For pics of more stars on the Billboard Women in Music red carpet, like Regina Spektor and more, scroll through our gallery above! Seriously; everyone looked so good this year!


Detention should always be a last resort. Where persons are detained they should have prompt and confidential access to a lawyer. The criminal justice process is daunting and anyone caught up in it is likely to need legal advice. If their case proceeds to prosecution they will want help preparing their defence. Access to lawyers also provides valuable protection against ill treatment. These principles are all clearly set out in the UN's Basic Principles on the Role of Lawyers.
China's criminal procedure law allows lawyers to access their clients after an initial police interrogation which should take place in the first 24 hours. While Chinese lawyers continue to call for the right to be present in police interviews many lawyers report improved access to their clients since the law was revised in 2012.
However, in cases involving one of the "three types of crime": terrorism, major bribery and endangering national security, investigators have the power to restrict access by lawyers.
The problem of accessing lawyers for detainees suspected of one of these three serious offences is exacerbated by the practice of holding these detainees in unofficial places of detention. Euphemistically described as 'residential surveillance in a designated location' (RSDL) or 'retention in custody' the Chinese authorities can hold suspects outside official detention centres (kanshousuo) for periods of up to six months. In effect this makes detainees incommunicado placing them at a high risk of torture.
In the '709' cases, called after the date on which a crackdown was launched against Chinese lawyers, detained lawyers were held for six months in RSDL before being transferred to a detention centre and formally arrested. In the detention centre they were still denied access to lawyers appointed by their families. Instead we saw the appointment of government-approved lawyers, often as part of a televised show trial.
The Rights Practice has been highlighting the problem of restricted access to lawyers through public advocacy, meetings with diplomats and in training on international law.

Duty lawyers can provide prompt legal assistance to detainees and access to legal aid.
