Corporate Plan 2015-2019 /
Corporate Plan 2015-2019: Environment
Australians have an appetite for stories, culture, knowledge and ideas from Australia, as well as from the wider world. The Library will welcome a growing number of physical and virtual visitors, see significant growth in the use and re-use of online services and content, facilitate increasing use of its unique and rare collections, and reach diverse communities in Australia's cities and regions.
Australians value opportunities to meet, debate, consume and produce new knowledge, and to give free rein to creative expression. Their preferences for how they do so will evolve—but they expect digital access to be the norm. This has and will transform what is possible and what is desirable from the Library as the lines between collection, curation and access and those between the producers and users of these services are increasingly blurred.
Deep audience engagement with Australian stories and knowledge will grow as Trove expands to contain more diverse digitised content, including journals and manuscripts, and as it improves the discoverability of national collections. Australians will continue to contribute to the intellectual public good through engagement with the national digital collection via Trove. They will add their own digital content via third party services such as Trove's Flickr pool. Digital volunteers will continue to improve discoverability of Trove resources through text correction and by adding their own knowledge for the benefit of all. They will curate and share content on diverse themes through Trove's lists functionality, numerous social media services and the power of its Application Programming Interface. As digital tools develop and support industrial-scale improvements to content discovery (for example, as optical character recognition tools for printed and handwritten text mature), the Library will expand its pioneering work in this area by offering communities new and productive ways to participate, both online and onsite.
Over the period of this plan, the Library will focus on building respectful relationships with Indigenous communities whose unique history and culture is documented in Library collections.
The Library will celebrate the 50th anniversary of its iconic building in 2018, and will use this event to connect even more strongly with Australians, and to better understand and anticipate community needs.
The Library's charter is to collect and preserve, in perpetuity, the nation's distinctive and diverse documentary heritage. The Library welcomes the implementation in 2016 of legal deposit for digital materials as this strengthens and transforms the Library's mandate. For the first time, it will be possible for the Library to systematically collect Australia's record of digital publishing and ensure its safekeeping for the very long term. The Library must meet this new responsibility within existing resources despite the challenge posed by the vigour of online publishing. The period covered by this corporate plan will be vital to the successful establishment of the policies, relationships, systems and workflows that will make it possible for the Library to build the national digital collection, in published and unpublished forms.
The Library anticipates that the rate of growth of its Australian printed collections will reduce slowly as publishers move online, and material once collected in print will be acquired and managed in digital form. However, the Library anticipates an increase in offers of paper-based personal, organisational and photographic archives for at least the next decade, given the extent of such material still with creators. This increase in the range and volume of material on offer will test the Library's ability to develop, describe and manage these collections as they require a high degree of curatorial activity to make them accessible.
Over the next four years, Australia's strategic, cultural and commercial engagement with countries of the Asian region will continue to evolve and flourish. The Library's Asian collections will retain their significance as a national resource enabling Australians to study and understand the region. With diminishing support for Asian collecting in the research sector, the Library will support students, researchers and users who may not otherwise have easy access to such collections.
Digitisation and the aggregation of metadata about library and cultural collections are critical to the discovery and use of these collections. The use of Trove, especially of its millions of freely available digitised newspaper pages, is evidence of this. Trove's achievements have been built on the enduring collaboration—professional and financial—of Australia's National, State and Territory libraries and, more recently, of partners from the cultural, community and philanthropic sectors. The Library will continue to nurture these relationships, not only to augment the corpus of digitised newspapers but also to explore further collaboration to digitise Australian journals and ensure that government websites are archived and accessible.
Digital infrastructure is crucial to the success of libraries but requires a significant investment. With National and State Libraries Australasia colleagues, the Library will explore the feasibility of further collaborative digital infrastructure development. The Library will continue to partner with other libraries to develop shared solutions. It will also partner with other collecting institutions to support exhibitions and programs, thereby maximising the impact of investments and our reach to audiences.
As the Library implements legislation providing for the legal deposit of digital materials, it will work even more closely with Australian publishers—large and small—to assist them to meet their deposit obligations.
The Library will also continue to partner with philanthropic individuals and organisations and with business. The Library seeks to strengthen its relationship with the ACT Government and is alert to the opportunities to work with digital enterprises, large and small.
The Library's capacity to partner with and meet the needs of the research sector—especially in the humanities and social sciences—will be stretched in an environment in which the Library's role in Australia's research infrastructure is largely unacknowledged, despite the transformative effects of services such as Trove. The Library will continue to advocate for recognition of the importance of library infrastructure in the collection and dissemination of knowledge, and the critical need to make the most efficient use of scarce digital infrastructure resources.
Government framework
With a national focus on productivity, workforce participation, equality of opportunity and strong and dynamic communities, the Library will continue to make an important contribution to lifelong learning, enhanced awareness and appreciation of Australia's history and culture, the creation of works of research and imagination, and innovation within the cultural sector. The Library creates public value by increasing economic, social and intellectual wellbeing. The Library's significant online presence touches individuals and communities across regional and rural Australia, enabling access to national and local stories, both past and present.
The drive for all major government services and interactions to be accessible online by the end of 2017 will require robust and expanded digital infrastructure. Just as investment in transport and logistics infrastructure is a catalyst for economic development, the Library argues that investment in digital infrastructure, such as Trove, is critical to the development of knowledge, creative industries and broader economic and social outcomes.
The Australian Government's emphasis on building Australia's potential for growth while reducing the footprint of government will continue to encourage the Library to innovate, drive efficiencies, collaborate in new ways, demonstrate value and reduce or cease some of its activities.
The Library's ambitions will not change in terms of their scale or ingenuity but their prosecution will be tempered as resource constraints require the Library to focus only on critical, very high impact projects. One example of this is that the Library's concentration on the Digital Library Infrastructure Replacement project (to be completed midway through this corporate plan) will limit work on many other important business and service improvements, including additional digital access opportunities for Australian communities.

With comfortable urban lives in Houston, Texas, and career and life goals mostly accomplished, Gail D. Storey and her husband were in their fifties when they decided it was time to test themselves on a new path—a 2,663-mile path known as the Pacific Crest Trail, which stretches from Mexico to Canada. I Promise Not to Suffer is Gail's light-hearted yet heart-felt memoir about her and her husband's adventures and misadventures, deepening marriage, and reflections on being irrevocably changed by life on the trail. She was a novice hiker, while he was an experienced outdoorsman. Removed from their usual routines and living outside in the wilderness for months exposed hidden intricacies in their relationship. Hiking 20 miles a day over mountains, thirsting in the high desert of California, forcing frozen feet into icy socks and boots each morning in the High Sierra, stumbling through lava fields in Oregon—Gail was required to meet the elements on their own tough-love terms. From an encounter with a mountain lion to her mother's battle with cancer at home, she confronts each challenge with wit and brave style. While a dangerous loss of weight forces Gail to leave the PCT after 900 miles, she regains strength and later rejoins her husband on sections until he triumphantly reaches the northern terminus in Canada. Humorous yet honest, this journey of harrowing hilarity and reluctant revelations will be loved by active hikers (appendices include details of their unique ultralight gear and other essential how-to information), fans of female adventure stories, and armchair travelers alike.

Falcon5X-rollout
Dassault Aviation Rolls Out First Falcon 5X
Bordeaux-Merignac, France
Dassault Aviation today lifted the veil on the highly anticipated Falcon 5X, which establishes a new benchmark in the large cabin, long range business aviation market.
Presented at Dassault's Bordeaux-Mérignac final assembly facility before an audience of 400 customers, operators, suppliers and certification authority representatives, the 5X will offer the largest cabin cross-section of any purpose built business jet. And its 5,200 nm (9,630 km) range will permit it to connect the majority of the world's most heavily travelled city pairs.
Yet the new twinjet will be more fuel efficient than any other business jet in its category and will feature an approach speed of 105 knots – down in the turboprop range – offering more airport options for business jet operators.
Announced at the National Business Aviation Association Convention in Las Vegas in October 2013, the Falcon 5X will be equipped with a new ultra-efficient wing, an advanced digital flight control system derived from the Rafale fighter jet and a brand new Snecma Silvercrest engine offering 15% better fuel efficiency than any other powerplant in its thrust class.
Other new features include a redesigned cockpit equipped with the third generation of Dassault's award winning EASy flight deck and state of the art aircraft and engine health monitoring systems.
"The Falcon 5X was designed to answer operator demand for an aircraft in the 5,000 nm range that could provide more space and comfort than existing large body jets while combining the handling qualities, the low speed performance and operating economics which are the hallmark of Falcons," said Eric Trappier, Chairman and CEO of Dassault Aviation. "Customers have already responded to the new aircraft with enthusiasm and we expect it to become every bit as popular as the 7X, the fastest selling Falcon we've ever built."
Final assembly and testing of the Falcon 5X is taking place at the Mérignac facility near Bordeaux (France), which has seen the delivery of more than 8,000 Dassault civil and military aircraft, including 2,300 Falcons, since it opened in 1949.
Advanced Ground Testing UnderwayThe first 5X was powered up and started system ground tests last autumn. It was joined by aircraft no. 2 earlier this year.
Testing on the global simulation bench, which replicates the 5X's main systems, is well advanced and the static and fatigue test campaign on a dedicated airframe has begun.
Testing of the Falcon 5X's Silvercrest engine is also progressing, both on the ground and on Snecma's flying test bed.
The aircraft's maiden flight is anticipated before the end of the summer.

Description The field of psychiatry reduces their patients to brain chemistry. This is simply an illustration of that fact.
Artist Statement I have been labeled an "outsider artist" by curators and gallery owners. I began sculpting and drawing quite suddenly in 1997 after a series of traumatic events that resulted in a disability. Art is therapeutic for me. Most of my work comes from my imagination and life experiences. I usually draw with pencils, including watercolor and oil pencils, and I sometimes paint with pastels. In my previous life I was a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. I much prefer the life of an artist and could never go back to the "mainstream" work world. This is the first time I have tried to sell my art and I'm curious to see how it goes!

Jonas Mikael Helgesson, född 4 mars 1978 i Göteborg, är en svensk komiker, föreläsare och författare.

Biografi
Jonas Helgessons födsel var dramatisk då navelsträngen hade virat sig fyra varv runt halsen och han inte fick syre i 35 minuter, vilket resulterade i en CP-skada. Han lät sig inte begränsas av detta och uppmuntrades av sin familj under hela sin uppväxt att klara nya saker, och lärde sig att klara sig utan rullstolen när han var 13 år. Han har lärt sig att tala, gå, flytta hemifrån, köra bil, starta företag – och arbetar nu som föreläsare och ståuppare. Han har (2012) hållit över 500 föreläsningar.

Första gången han uppträdde som ståuppkomiker var i en nybörjartävling 2006. Han kom då tvåa, men har sedan dess gjort många ståupp-framträdanden inte bara i Sverige utan även i Finland och Danmark.

Quebec's official opposition party is criticizing the new Minister Responsible for the Status of Women over comments she made calling hijabs a symbol of oppression.
On Tuesday, Isabelle Charest said wearing a hijab does not correspond to Quebec values and keeps women from flourishing.
"For me, the hijab is not something women should be wearing because it does have, at some point, significance of oppression of women and the fact they have to cover themselves," she said on Tuesday.
"For me it's not in my values," she added.
"It's the fact that you have to wear something, so it does command an action for the women, and I think women should be free to wear whatever they want," she said.
On Wednesday, Charest again clarified her remarks, saying when women are not at liberty to choose what they want to wear; it's a sign of oppression.
"When women decide they want to wear the hijab, that's fine and I respect their choice," she added.
Her comments came as the debate over religious accommodation, secularism and religious symbols has heated up.
The Coalition Avenir Quebec government has vowed to pass legislation banning government workers in positions of authority from wearing religious symbols such as hijabs or kippahs.
Interim Liberal leader Pierre Arcand called on the CAQ government to debate religious symbols in a reasonable manner, saying Quebec needs tolerance.
"We feel very strongly these subjects are difficult to handle and we feel it's important to continue the debate in a very peaceful way," he said.
"The issue of religious symbols is a very divisive issue even inside the feminist movement," he said. "I think it's really clumsy for her to come into office and the first thing she does is put her finger on a very sensitive and divisive issue inside the women's movement."
Amira Elghawaby, an Ottawa-based human rights advocate, called Charest's comments disappointing and potentially harmful to Muslim women.
In Ottawa, federal International Development Minister Marie-Claude Bibeau reminded Charest that women have the right to choose "what they do with their body and how to dress."
But Elghawaby said that Charest's attempts to nuance her comments came too late, and the damage was already done.
"What we really need is for elected officials to think very carefully before they start speaking about people's experiences and freedoms and understand that they are elected to serve all of us in a way that respects our dignity," she said.
Gabrielle Bouchard, the president of Quebec's most prominent women's group, said she was surprised to hear Charest take such a strong position on the issue so early in her mandate. "It shows she maybe didn't have enough -- or any -- contact with Muslim women before making that statement," she said.


Working as a freelance copywriter on the internet can be done from anywhere – from your favorite coffee shop, from home, or even from college. All you need are a few basic programs (like MS Word), a reliable internet connection and your laptop or desktop.
Many times when looking for freelance work online you'll see sites that want a bit of money from you to sign up or get work.
These sites are often scams, but plenty of them are legitimate avenues for matching up real buyers and providers around the globe.
A starter list of sites that do this could read something like: freelancer.com, upwork.com and guru.com. There are plenty more, but these are probably the most popular ones.
Freelancing normally entails signing up on a website (such as one of the above mentioned), completing your profile, listing your skills etc, and then starting work. This you normally do by 'bidding' on projects and if you bid successfully and win the project, then congratulations! You have become a freelancer.
There are, of course, both pros and cons to this kind of work (as with any kind of work). But if you are the kind of person who values your home life and your own time, then freelancing may be for you.
More often than not, you can negotiate work to do at your own convenience and your own pace, thereby leaving enough leisure time for you to do what you enjoy.
There is no 'boss' or manager breathing down your neck and you also get to choose the kind of work you want to do.
Whether that's programming, content writing, transcription or web design, you can put any writing or computer skills to good use as a freelancer on the internet.
There are certain drawbacks as well – which aren't really drawbacks if you look closely. For one thing you have to learn to focus and manage yourself because there is nobody doing that for you.
What this really means is an opportunity for self-development and growth, and learning to take responsibility for yourself which is a skill that can then be applied to any facet of your life.
You also need to have very competitive rates as people from all over the world, with different standards of living, are vying for perhaps that same job. This means that often you might be working for less than you know you are worth.
Nonetheless, freelancing is a very rewarding and skill-enhancing way to work and many people make successful careers out of it. Remember, keep communication as a high priority on your list, along with quality work, and you are likely to do very well in a matter of weeks.

As a yogi and athlete, Beija Faria relies on clean ingredients to fuel her active lifestyle. After searching far and wide for a convenient snack made with only wholesome, delicious ingredients, she found Thunderbird and fell in love. Quickly after, she joined our flock and became a Thunderbird Brand Ambassador. She is famous for her creative recipes like her Carrot Cheesecake Crumble using Thunderbird Cashew Fig Carrot bars. Read on to get to know her a little better!
How were you introduced to yoga and your love for baking with healthy, clean ingredients?
I was fortunate to grow up on a stone fruit and blueberry farm and was always surrounded by fresh ingredients. From a young age, I always gravitated towards the kitchen, soaking up as much kitchen-wisdom from my grandma and mother. As I grew to be more conscientious of my health and sought to optimize my performance as an athlete, I began to merge my passion for cooking and baking with clean eating. This eventually grew to become my primary creative outlet and I'm excited to see my hobby evolve and expand as time goes on!
In high school, I played four sports (volleyball, basketball, track and swimming!) and initially started yoga as a complement to these activities but found myself falling in love with my practice and yearning to learn as much as I could. I was eager to share the peace, connection, and vitality that yoga brought to me with others and resolved to get my certification as soon as possible.
Chocolate Chip Cookies! I'm a total cookie-fiend! Believe me when I say I have a ton of experience with cookies (baking and eating em) and this recipe is my FAVORITE. It's vegan, paleo, and gluten-free just like these bars! Scroll to the bottom of the page for the recipe.
If you could spend a day doing absolutely anything in the world, what would it be?
Ahh, this is such a difficult question for me. I would love to travel to a new place with a friend or family member and spend a full day exploring, enjoying really good food and experiencing the beauty this earth has to offer.
What is your favorite Thunderbird flavor?
My favorite flavor always changes but at the moment, it has to be Thunderkids Apple Pie and Cherry Walnut Cinnamon.
To see what else Beija is up to, follow her on Instagram @beij.the.sage and stay tuned because she will be sharing more wisdom on YouTube in the months to come!

Add in the almond butter and vanilla extract and mix until combined. Beat in the egg (or flax-egg) until well incorporated.
Stir in the dry to wet ingredients, just until fully incorporated. Then fold in chocolate chips. You can bake now but, in my opinion, let the dough sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours or, preferably, overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350 °F and line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.
Roll the dough into balls and press down gently with your hand, they won't spread too much in the oven.

#1,292. The 2000 Year Old Man (1975)
Directed By: Leo Salkin
Starring: Carl Reiner, Mel Brooks
Trivia: This special was originally broadcast in January of 1975
The 2000 Year Old Man is a 1975 animated special based on a character created by Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner. Lifted directly from several recordings the duo made over the years, The 2000 Year Old Man plays out like an interview in which a reporter (voiced by Reiner) questions a man claiming to be 2,000 years old (Brooks). As you can imagine, the results are pretty hilarious.
A witness to many historical events, the 2,000 year old man regales us with stories from the past, going all the way back to when he lived in a cave, though, according to him, life wasn't nearly as primitive then as we thought. In fact, every cave had their own National Anthem, and after all these years, the 2,000 Year Old Man still remembers his particular cave's song ("Let them all go to Hell, except Cave 76!"). Throughout their 25-minute conversation, the two discuss everything from women (the cavemen he hung around with didn't realize there were women until a guy named Bernie discovered them) to music, which apparently began as a side effect of fear. His stories go further into the future as well, including the startling discovery that Shakespeare wrote 38 plays, and not 37. The Bard supposedly penned a work titled Queen Alexandra and Murray. Needless to say, it wasn't a hit ("It closed in Egypt").
The animation style of The 2000 Year Old Man is pretty basic, but then it didn't need to be anything special. The reason to watch this short movie is the banter between Reiner and Brooks, who play off each other perfectly. Both men would go on to direct movies (Reiner teamed with Steve Martin on a number of films in the '70s and '80s, including The Jerk and Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, while Brooks turned out comedy classics like The Producers, Blazing Saddles, and Young Frankenstein), and with The 2000 Year Old Man, we get an opportunity to hear the two in their younger days, acting out one of the funniest comedy routines of all-time.

Three African American Women Win Rhodes Scholarships
Filed in Features on November 19, 2012
The Rhodes Scholarships, considered by many to be the most prestigious awards given to U.S. college students, were created in 1902 by the will of Cecil Rhodes, an industrialist who made a vast fortune in colonial Africa. Each year, 32 Americans are named Rhodes Scholars. The scholarships provide funds for two or three years of graduate study at Oxford University in Britain. Rhodes Scholars from the United States join students from 14 other jurisdictions including Australia, southern Africa, Kenya, India, and Canada. All told, about 80 Rhodes Scholars worldwide are selected each year for study at Oxford.
This year, 1,700 American students sought Rhodes Scholarships. Of those, 838 were endorsed for selection by 302 different colleges and universities. Of the 32 American winners this year, six attend Harvard University and seven have been students at Yale University.
In 1907 Alain LeRoy Locke, later a major philosopher and literary figure of the Harlem Renaissance, was selected as a Rhodes Scholar to study at Oxford University. It is generally believed that at the time of the award the Rhodes committee did not know that Locke was Black until after he had been chosen. It would be more than 50 years later, in 1962, that an African American would be named a Rhodes Scholar. That year John Edgar Wideman, now a famed author as well as a professor at Brown University, was selected. Other African Americans who have won Rhodes Scholarships include Randall Kennedy of Harvard Law School, Kurt Schmoke, former mayor of Baltimore and now dean of the law school at Howard University, and Franklin D. Raines, former director of the Office of Management and Budget and former CEO of Fannie Mae.
In 1978 Karen Stevenson of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was the first African-American woman selected as a Rhodes Scholar. This year, three African American women were among the this year's group of Rhodes Scholars.
(L to R) Joy A. Buolamwini, Rhiana E. Gunn-Wright, and Nina M. Yancy
Joy A. Buolamwini is a graduate of the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she majored in computer science. She is currently working at the Carter Center in Atlanta. She has founded or co-founded three businesses. She plans on a degree in African studies at Oxford.
Rhiana E. Gunn-Wright is a 2011 graduate of Yale University. She holds a bachelor's degree in African American studies and women's, gender, and sexuality studies. She has been working at Women's Policy Research in Washington, D.C. Her plan is to obtain a master's degree in comparative social policy at Oxford.
Nina M. Yancy is a senior at Harvard University where she majors in social studies. Yancy grew up in the Dallas area but her family recently moved to Chicago. Yancy has had internships at CNN, the Center for American Political Studies and in the British House of Commons. She is a member of the Harvard Ballet Company. She plans on pursuing a master's degree in global health science as a Rhodes Scholar.

The Rathaus is the City Hall of Vienna which serves as the seat both of the mayor and city council. It was designed (Gothic) by Friedrich von Schmidt and built between 1872 and 1883. The structure is built on #1 Friedrich-Schmidt-Platz, the street named after the designer. The Rathaus can be found on the other side crossing from the Parliament building.
The front lot has been renovated into an ice skating rink where fans of all ages can enjoy ice skating! It is called the Wiener Eistraum (literally: Viennese Ice Dream/Dream on Ice). The 4,000 sq.mtrs rink is open since January 26 and will be open to the public until March 9.

The Australian Government welcomes today's official announcement that the Western Australian Government will join the National Redress Scheme.
Every state and territory has now committed to joining the National Redress Scheme for the survivors of child sexual abuse.
Non-government institutions have also continued to join the Scheme, including the Uniting Church, the Lutheran Church, CFA in Victoria, Jewish Care Victoria and Kesser Torah College.
The Scheme will provide survivors with access to counselling, a redress payment and a direct personal response from the institution. The Scheme will start on 1 July.
Western Australia Premier Mark McGowan and Attorney General John Quigley have shown real leadership by opting into the National Redress Scheme and acknowledging the abuse suffered by children in WA institutions.
Australia now has a truly national scheme. The next step will be the delivery of the Redress Scheme that will acknowledge historical crimes, continue the healing process and provide support to those who have suffered, and continue to suffer.
Support services are available to help people who are considering applying for redress.


What is your genealogy (aka family history) wish list for 2015?
Tonight as midnight strikes, it's the start of a new year, 2015!
What would be on your genealogy wish list for 2015?
Though it's completely not possible, I would just love to spend 1 day with each of my direct ancestors. To see them as "people" and not as just names, dates, and places. Though I have worked hard to learn about them as people, the limitations of available source material have left me wanting to know more!
At least I don't have to worry that my pursuit of knowledge about my roots will ever "end!" There is too much that I don't yet know!
Editor's Note: Check this FB link and see what other's have on their wish list!

I wanted to let you know about a project we undertook this week as part of our global initiative to preserve and digitize cemeteries worldwide, with the help of some friends.
We embarked on a very ambitious goal to digitize Israel's largest cemetery, Holon, collaborating with genealogy companies, genealogy organizations, societies and other volunteers who love genealogy. It was our biggest challenge yet, and one of the largest events of its kind ever organized - in the world!
The day was a huge success! Over 150,000 gravestones were photographed. It is a great model for how similar activities can be organized around the world.
This event was part of the global initiative that MyHeritage and BillionGraves launched earlier this year. Read more here.
Earlier this year, BillionGraves and The Federation of Genealogical Societies partner to image ALL cemetery markers for WAR OF 1812 Participants.
Collaborations between entities with reach into the individuals who make up our genealogical community and a crowdsourcing-based software such as BillionGraves or a web platform such as Find-a-grave or other up and coming projects, like Cemetery Census, are dramatically increasing the amount of cemetery information available to us.
All of these projects welcome volunteers.
Are you helping or have you helped to digitize the residents of a local cemetery? Would you like to give a shout-out to local efforts to digitize a cemetery?
+ Using Radar To Do Cemetery Mapping and Find Unmarked Graves -- Fascinating!
+ Coffee cafes in cemeteries -- popular in Europe! Might we see the same in the US?

Facebook is entering the home companies market. However explaining it with a bunch of heavy textual content and having like "read issues later" and lots of totally different keywords stuff, that in all probability doesn't make sense. What does make sense is, "Let me shortly and easily explain it to you." So this is a guy, he is on his phone, and this is his thought bubble saying, "That is cool, but I wish I may read it later." Oh. "Go to Pocket, and now you may. Read anytime on any gadget and not using a internet connection." Ah-ha!

A gorgeous thuddy leather with looped over tails. This reduces sting and increases thud, as there are less edges striking the skin. This makes it a lovely thuddy leather, with almost no sting. The looped tails do make it flow slightly differently to a traditional flogger, so this item is recommended if you already have a regular flogger, know you really enjoy thud and are looking for a different sensation.
The flogger tails of the standard size are 14 inches long, making it ideal for being close and intimate with your partner, and playing in a smaller space such as a bedroom. The long size has 18 inch long tails. The custom option can be made to order with any length tails you desire.

Q: Polygon Neighbors not found in Proximity Toolset of ArcGIS Desktop 10.0? I cannot find the Polygon Neighbors tool. I have searched for it as I usually do and I have also browsed the proximity toolset but it is not there. The other Tools, e.g. Buffer and Near are there and work fine.
Here is a screenshot:

A: This tool is available only since 10.1, you've indicated that you are on 10.0. ArcGIS 10.0 Help page is here.

Your option is to upgrade to 10.1 or later or find 10.0 system and custom tools that could do a similar thing without using this 10.1 tool. I bet you can do this in ArcPy even in 10.0.

A: So it's actually very simple, as suggested by @FelixIP:
Spatial join one to many in ModelBuilder, then export the resulting table to excel and create a pivot table to summarise values of the B polygons.

Korea's regions each have their own unique food flavors and Jeju's were all on offer at Baume Couture, Shin Jeju, on Thursday Dec 18. Jeju Tourism Association invited guests to enjoy a number of representative foods courtesy of an exhibition and buffet.
Through the province's food visitors can better understand its people, society and history, and such storytelling is seen as key by tour officials in popularizing the cuisine.
Although many Jeju foods are available widely in restaurants such as gogiguksu (meat noodles) and heukdwaeji (black pork), others such as kongjuk (bean porridge) and swindali (a fermented rice beverage) are not as easily found. This was lamented by local food researcher Yang Yong-jin in his guest lecture.
"Tourists come and say: 'I came to Jeju and I want to eat Jeju food.' Nowadays visitors have a kind of bucket list and they want to try Jeju food. There is nowhere, and it is a shame," he said.
He stressed how everything from the local pottery to harvesting practices influenced Jeju's food culture, differentiating it from the mainland and enshrining traditional wisdom. The lack of interest in this, particularly from local people, disappoints him.
"Using traditional methods, from the rice, to the soup and even the side dishes, let's go back to the traditional ways," he urged.
Among the attendees was Ahn Eun Joo, general manager of the Jeju Olle Foundation. Ahn hopes that more such events can be held in the future, particularly targeting mainlanders and others outside of Jeju.
"In the future I think there is a need for far more [events like this]. More events in more diverse forms and locations will increase the number of people coming to Jeju to eat the delicious food," said Ahn.


Thank you for your inquiry regarding the process for regulating recreational cannabis sales within the City of Abbotsford.
Although there have been announcements recently by the Government of BC, both the Province and the Government of Canada still have a number of key decisions to make as they prepare for legalization of non-medical cannabis in 2018. The Government of BC plans to introduce legislation in the spring legislative session and also to launch a public education campaign to ensure broad public awareness of the provincial rules before they come into force.
As both the Provincial and Federal Governments still have decisions to make regarding how senior levels of government will ultimately legalize and oversee this process, Council is unable to make an informed decision on how this new regime will be regulated at the municipal level in Abbotsford at this time. Once finalized details emerge, Abbotsford City Council will need to consider how this will impact our Zoning Bylaw and Business Licence Bylaw, among others. Until then, cannabis sales remain un-permitted in the City of Abbotsford.
For the latest information regarding the City's preparation and implementation of a regulatory framework for non-medical cannabis, please visit our Legalization of Non-Medical Cannabis webpage.


Spanish speakers need this type of class to learn about their heritage. In addition, they learn spelling and grammar because they can speak it but not write it. It's like saying that kids that speak English don't need English classes.
Exactly! Now if a Latino student wants to take a German or Japanese class, that's absolutely fine. But at schools where there are a good number of students of a different nationality, we should indeed create the type of class where we allow them to delve into their own heritage and perfect their language skills.


ORLANDO — Jean Francois carries himself with a quiet dignity. An elderly Haitian gentleman, Francois is a member of Emmanuel Haitian United Methodist Mission in Orlando.
Jean Francois was among the members and guests attending the service. Four of his children died in the quake. Photo by Erik J. Alsgaard. Photo #10-1380.
Early on Jan. 12, Francois said, he talked by phone with his son in Haiti. His son needed money so his children could go to school. Francois said he would send the money. They never spoke again.
Early that evening, a 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck near Port-au-Prince, killing an estimated 150,000 people, according to Associated Press reports, and reducing neighborhoods to rubble. Francois' son and three other children were among the dead.
It is a story that is all too familiar among Florida's Haitian population.
That shared tragedy brought members of Francois' church, along with visitors and clergy from churches throughout Orlando, together Jan. 20 to pray for each other and the Haitian people.
"In Jesus, I'm fine. I'm fine," the Rev. Eliantus Valmyr said to the nearly 100 gathered — even though several of his cousins in Haiti had yet to be located.

While dealing with his own situation, Valmyr is also trying to help members of his congregation and their family and friends cope in the aftermath of the quake. Along with Francois, several members have lost loved ones.
Valmyr says he relies on his strong faith in God and Jesus Christ to help him fulfill that call.
Maggie Raymond, a member of the Haitian congregation, attended the service with her 2-year-old son, Jochanan. She said it was a chance to bring people together to praise the Lord.
As people went to the front of the sanctuary to offer their witness and testimony, prayers were lifted as each one spoke. Dozens of people from outside the Haitian community also offered their support.
The Rev. Bob Bushong, senior pastor at First United Methodist Church in Winter Park, attended, representing the wider United Methodist community. He also offered the benediction.

Support from United Methodists throughout the connection helps keep him going, Valmyr said.
Harold Nicoleau also attended the service. He said his heavy heart has been buoyed by his faith.
Members and guests pray during the service. Photo by Erik J. Alsgaard. Photo #10-1383.
Through it all, Nicoleau said, he has seen God's hand at work.
Nicoleau said he told his congregation the Sunday after the quake that there is a reason for everything in life. And even in the midst of a terrible tragedy, you can still see God at work.


There are some fine morphological  differences between paradisicola  and belladonna but the most visible ones are that paradisicola has  leaves that  are broad and tongue like (6 to 9 leaves hysteranthous and distichous) - rosulate when mature and quite wide and channeled, with short patent hairs on both sides of the leaves. The inner stamens are also longer than in belladonna and the outer stamens are longer than the inner by 15mm.The stigma is also more distinctively trifid than belladonna.  The flowers  have a Narcissus like scent.
Has 10 to 21 flowers that are a uniformly purplish pink that darken with age and they are arranged in a ringet.
In distinction to the  moister Cape areas where Amaryllis belladonna is found - paradisicola is adapted to a relatively cool montane arid habitat. It  grows in quartzite cliffs, and narrow rock ledges with partly vegetated screes that provide some shade.
They  bloom in mid autumn (April) if after a long dry there has been rainfall in March (beginning of autumn).
The cultivated collection was held at Kirstenbosch Bot. Garden  nursery. An excellent image of paradisicola taken at Kirstenbosch can be found in the Plant Delights web site.

We've all read these stories in the paper and shuddered at the facts. Someone plans a sunny vacation getaway in a tropical paradise and the unthinkable happens—he or she is seriously injured. If the accident had happened at a holiday resort or hotel in Ontario, you can sue for damages arising out of the accident. But what if you're staying at a holiday resort or international hotel outside of Canada? Can you sue a foreign corporation in an Ontario court?
This actual situation happened a few years ago in Cuba. In one incident, an individual (the plaintiff), Ms. Van Breda, suffered catastrophic injuries after using faulty equipment set up on the beach. The equipment was owned by the resort where she was staying. Van Breda launched a lawsuit against the Cayman Island resort that operated the facility.
Before the lawsuit was settled, the question went to the Supreme Court of Canada, which also reviewed a separate incident where another individual on vacation in Cuba was killed. The decision in Club Resorts Ltd. v. Van Breda ("Van Breda") was released this April 18, 2012.
At Wynperle, we see the long term impact of catastrophic injuries on the lives of individuals and their families. If you are traveling abroad, our advice is to make sure you use a travel agent in Ontario. In many countries, you can't sue for damages if the unthinkable happens. But if you make your arrangements with an Ontario based agent, your vacation contract is formed here—and you are much better protected.

Speaking on the occasion, CM Jagan noted that he's proud to be born on Telugu soil, highlighting the great sacrifice of Alluri Sitarama Raju for the tribal population and the struggle he endured in the process.
"We come from the land of heroes like Alluri Sitarama Raju, who sacrificed his life for the people of Andhra Pradesh and especially from the tribal community. He had a great spark of fire, which will motivate us in our daily life," the CM, said.
PM Modi also remembered the great fight of Alluri Sitarama Raju against the British and addressed Alluri Sitarama Raju as "Manyam Veeradu" (Hero of the Jungles) as called by the local people. PM Modi also announced that the Centre has planned a series of initiatives as part of the '75th Aazadi ka Amrit Mahotsav'.
"As part of our 75th Amrit Mahotsav, and also the 100th anniversary of the Rampa rebellion started by Alluri Sitarama Raju, I bow down to the great freedom fighter. I'm heartful that I'm taking part in this auspicious event. We will celebrate the Rampa rebellion and 125th anniversary for the entire year," the PM, said.
The PM also announced that the birthplace of Alluri Sitarama Raju at Pandrangi in Vizianagaram district and Chintapalli Police Station, where the attack on this police station marked the beginning of the Rampa Rebellion, will be restored.
The government has also approved the construction of Alluri Dhyana Mandir at Mogallu with a statue of Alluri Sitarama Raju in Dhyana Mudra, depicting the life story of the freedom fighter through mural paintings and an AI-enabled interactive system.
"We have taken an oath to publicise the history and the struggles of all the freedom fighters throughout the country. This is not history for just one constituency, one community or one state. It's for the entire country to know and celebrate. Alluri is the idol for the Adivasis and is the symbol of strength for the entire country," PM Modi, noted.
Highlighting the importance being given to the tribal communities across the country, PM Modi said that for the first time since independence, tribal museums are being set up to showcase the tribal pride and heritage in the country.
"His journey from birth to death has been an inspiration to everyone. He gave his entire life to the Adivasis and was there for the upliftment of the community. In this memory, Alluri Sitarama Raju Memorial Tribal Freedom Fighters Museum will also be built-in Lambasingi," PM Modi, said.

Budget 2023: Relief for middle class in the offing by FM Nirmala Sitharaman?


"Everybody down!" The bank heist begins the way cinematic robberies do, shouting and chaos. The first few minutes of the robbery are familiar, the situation looks pretty doomed. When the obligatory policeman comes to the locked door, a robber greets him with a handgun and tells him they have the bank, don't come in. The NYPD sergeant calls for all possible resources and in minutes the place is surrounded and we wonder "Where is the strategy?"
Dalton Russell (Clive Owen), the mastermind, is a perfectionist. He and some colleagues have become privy to a target bank job too incredible to pass up. He believes he has every eventuality covered. He may be right.
Soon, distinctive elements of the plan start to confound us. Coveralls for all customers and employees in the bank, masks and blindfolds, hostages divided between different rooms, what the Hell is going on? Cellophane wrapped blocks of money being used for stools. Inspector Keith Frazier (Denzel Washington) is awaiting clearance from an investigation into allegations he helped himself to evidence money. He gets the call to be hostage negotiator. Madeleine White (Jodie Foster) is the most connected, discrete, hider of indiscretions of the Rich and Famous. (We would never have heard of Vice President Cheney's shooting incident if she had owned the ranch.) The mayor introduces Ms. White to Inspector Frazier. It seems there will be pressure to make this incident disappear into a cloud of smoke.
As good as the movie is, the cunning plan is so original, I was too baffled to stay on the edge of my seat. There is a lull two-thirds of the way through, and a feeling that a second story is beginning. That momentary lack of sure-footedness made me wonder where we were headed. The story got back on track for me and proceeded to its interesting conclusion.
It was a very enjoyable film, and I'm pretty sure you won't figure out what they're doing.
Did the police use all the resources available?
What kind of money do you think Ms. White commands?


Structured Settlement: What is a Structured Settlement Payment?
A structured settlement is a regular stream of payments granted to the plaintiff in a civil lawsuit. Structured settlements guarantee lifetime income for the injured party.
Juliette Fairley defines a structured settlement annuity.
A structured settlement pays out money owed from a legal settlement through periodic payments in the form of a financial product known as an annuity. However, many legal settlements offer a lump-sum payment option, which provides a one-time sum of money. The key differences between both annuity settlement options are the long-term security and the taxes. For example, money received from a personal injury case is almost always tax free when you receive it. However, once the money is yours, you're liable for taxes and dividends from the lump sum.
There are a number of reasons why an individual may receive a structured settlement.
A personal injury case is a civil case where someone who's been harmed files a lawsuit seeking money from the person believed responsible for the harm. Money in the form of a structured settlement helps recipient pay for medical expenses or other costs.
Most people know about workers' compensation, which pays workers who get injured on the job while they recover. Payments can be used for medical treatment and wage replacement during periods when injured employees are unable to work and other expenses.
Structured settlements — or structured annuities — are both financial products and legal judgments. While they function somewhat like private assets, they are also subject to complex regulations.
Compare and contrast the different ways to accept a cash settlement from a lawsuit.
Learn about how the government uses the tax code to promote their use.
Read about why this type of settlement is typically used in cases involving children.
You can also determine when you set up the annuity the schedule for receiving payments and whether the payments should go up or down over time.
Structured annuities are ideally suited for many different types of cases. For additional information on how work, payout options, or how to access your cash ahead of the annuity contract schedule, the Structured Settlements FAQs page can be a beneficial resource.
These scheduled payments offer a number of advantages. When deciding on any financial investment, it is important to understand the benefits along with the risks.
In the event of the recipient's death, the heir can continue to receive tax-free payments.
Payments can be scheduled for almost any length of time and can begin immediately or be deferred for as many years as requested. They can include future lump-sum payouts or benefit increases.
Spreading out payments over time can reduce the temptation to make large, extravagant purchases and guarantees future income. This is especially helpful if the recipient has a medical condition that will require long-term care.
Unlike stocks, bonds and mutual funds, structured settlements do not fluctuate with market changes. Payments are guaranteed by the insurance company that issued the annuity.
A structured settlement often yields, in total, more than a lump-sum payout would because of the interest your annuity may earn over time.
Once terms are finalized, there's little you can do to alter them if they do not meet your needs. You cannot renegotiate the terms if your financial situation or the overall economy changes.
Funds are not immediately accessible in case of an emergency, and the recipient cannot place a lump-sum payout in other investments that carry higher rates of return.
Tapping into your structured settlement without selling payments will cost you money. You will pay surrender charges and IRS penalties if you withdraw funds before age 59½.
Not all states require insurance companies to disclose their costs to establish a structured settlement or lump-sum annuity. Without this information, a recipient could lose a significant amount of money through administrative fees.
You should carefully consider the terms of your annuity because they can't be renegotiated after the contract has been issued. That can limit your options if your financial situation changes due unemployment, illnesses or other setbacks.
However, annuity owners may have the option to get cash in advance of their contract schedules. Owners may sell some or all payments to structured settlement buyers. Some buyers may inaccurately refer to these sales as "structured settlement loans." In reality, they are actually purchasing your settlement, which will effectively halt your regular payments. Such sales must be approved by a judge. The role of the judge is to decide if the sale is in the best interest of the annuity owner.
Other rules may apply depending on the details of your annuity contract and the laws of the state where you live. The Structured Settlement Protection Act of 2002 provides federal guidelines on such transactions.
Annuity owners should carefully consider their options before selling payments. You can learn more at Selling Structured Settlement Payments.

Association fallacy
Guilt by Association Vol. 1
Casey Shea (born November 27, 1979) is an American songwriter and singer. Born in Louisiana, he currently lives in New York.
Shea was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. His family moved to Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida in 1986. Shea attended Florida State University. He is married to Langhorne Shea.
After graduating from FSU, Shea moved to Nashville, Tennessee to pursue a career in songwriting and singing. In January 2004, he moved to New York City. He was a founding member of The Undisputed Heavyweights and Sundown. His debut solo album "Take The Bite" which blended Folk music, rock, and psychedelia was released in 2006, and he signed with indie label Family Records in 2007. During the first six months of 2009, he released a 3-sided single each month as a project called ABCs. Many of those recordings made up his second solo album "Love Is Here To Stay" which was released in 2010. His third album "In Your Head" was released in November 2011.
His song "Roll Your Windows Down" was featured on the Season 6 finale of the TV Show One Tree Hill. In July 2010 his song "Wave Of Walls", from the album "Love Is Here To Stay", was used on the episode "The Monster Within" of the ABC drama The Gates. In September 2010 his song "Good Man", from the album "Love Is Here To Stay", was used on the episode "The Space In Between" on season 8 of One Tree Hill. In August 2011, his song "Can't Get Enough" was used on the episode "The Benefit Of The Mute Button" on the first season of the NBC romantic sitcom Friends With Benefits. His songs "Love Is Here To Stay" and "The World Is Waking Up" were featured in the independent documentary "Mr. Rogers And Me" which was released on PBS DVD in March 2012 and aired on 27 PBS affiliates. In June 2012, his song "Can't Get Enough" from the album "In Your Head" was featured in the opening scene of the episode "To Swerve And Protect" on the USA Network drama Necessary Roughness.

An association fallacy is an inductive informal fallacy of the type hasty generalization or red herring which asserts that qualities of one thing are inherently qualities of another, merely by an irrelevant association. The two types are sometimes referred to as guilt by association and honor by association. Association fallacies are a special case of red herring, and can be based on an appeal to emotion.
In notation of first-order logic, this type of fallacy can be expressed as (∃x ∈ S : φ(x)) → (∀x ∈ S : φ(x)), meaning "if there exists any x in the set S so that a property φ is true for x, then for all x in S the property φ must be true."
The fallacy in the argument can be illustrated through the use of an Euler diagram: "A" satisfies the requirement that it is part of both sets "B" and "C", but if one represents this as an Euler diagram, it can clearly be seen that it is possible that a part of set "B" is not part of set "C", refuting the conclusion that "all Bs are Cs".

hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
(hide the scars to fade away the shakeup)
why'd you leave the keys up on the table
here you go create another fable
you wanted to
grab a brush and put on a little makeup
why i dont think you trust in my self righteous suicide
i cry when angels deserve to die
in my self righteous suicide
Cry no more
Father, into your hands ,i commend my spirit
Father, into your hands ,why have you forsaken me
in your eyes forsaken me
in your thoughts forsaken me
in your heart forsaken me ohh
trust in my self righteous suicide

by Stacy M. Brown January 13, 2021 December 21, 2021
Independence Day 2020 is one of those days that's in Sade Wright's memory.
The District-based activist held a cookout with guests that included Ward 8 Councilman Trayon White.
The event was festive, with friendly conversations, music and delicious barbecue, helping Wright's high-profile friends and family members delight.
"Then all of a sudden, everyone's phones started going off and the next thing you knew, everyone had left," Wright recalled.
Text messages had been sent to the councilman and the other guests, alerting them to 11-year-old Davon McNeal's shooting death.
The shooting occurred on Cedar Street Southeast, which had been the subject of a round-the-clock watch by the Metropolitan Police Department because of a previous shooting earlier that week.
Wright, who started the Wright Family Foundation just a year before Davon's murder, immediately organized a drive-by event to honor Davon.

About 30 cars lined the Southeast streets, driving from The Big Chair in Anacostia to MPD's 7th District station in Buena Vista.
During the drive-by memorializing Davon, Wright said someone informed her of the murder of another Southeast resident, Dawaun Simmons.
Affectionately known as "Woosie" Dawaun, 17, was killed two months earlier, but Wright simply cried upon learning about the murder.
"We have a saying with leaders in Southeast," Wright revealed. "We say, 'put the guns down, pick the children up.'"
She and her husband, Duane Wright, fund the family's foundation and all its philanthropic efforts. Wright noted that grant applications have failed, and donations are almost nonexistent.
"We are supported by the community and that's it," Wright remarked.
But it still has not stopped the foundation from organizing tributes to the fallen, assisting victims' families, providing thousands of meals for those in need during its Feed the Streets program.
The foundation also has hosted toy drives for children, gun giveback events and assisted those with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Wright insists that she has routinely tried to engage MPD's hierarchy on several occasions to help police relations in the community and assist in brokering peace.
"I have gone to the police station, and I have asked the commander to talk to us and have a relationship with the community," Wright said. "These officers cannot just come into the community and drive around, see these Black boys and just jump on them. That is why they do not respect them. That's why they run."
Wright's family has endured its share of violence and loss. A cousin was murdered in 2006 at his home in Maryland, and in 2016, Duane Wright's brother, Rashawn, was shot and killed in Southeast.
"I had to sit at his murder trial and watch the murderers get off," Sade Wright recalled. "So, when I see these juveniles being killed, it's upsetting. It is why I had to do something."
Wright, who once suffered a stroke, has lived all her life in Southeast.
She said she could easily relate to young ones growing up there today.
"I used to be a bad girl. I used to always like to fight," Wright noted. "Things are not like they were when I was growing up, so when I see these young girls and guys in the area, I feel like we need to, and we can, make a change in the community. That is what made me want to give back so that I can show my community that there are other ways than the way we are currently seeing things done."
The Washington Informer has started a series called "Black Lives Lived," where we will profile African American homicide victims. In bringing the stories of unsolved Black victims of crime, we hope to show that these are real people, with real families, who loved and cared about them. We also hope the profiles will help preserve their dignity and legacy and perhaps lend a hand to MPD in bringing those responsible to justice. If you'd like your loved one featured, email us at stacybrownmedia@gmail.com.

I'm using the New Blog Templates plugin to use a template of an existing site and create new instances of that site.
I'm also using the 'wpmu_new_blog' hook to default the site_url and sitehome to include https in the url (defaults to http), and that is working fine so I know the hook is working.
However, some of the plugin options that are being copied across in the 'wp_options' table contain url references to the original template blog, and when I try to use that hook to change these to the new sites url it doesn't seem to work.
I'm guessing it's because it copies the plugins options after that hook has fired and so they do in fact get set on that hook, but then they get overwritten again.
Is there any way to do this easily? Is there a hook within New Blog Templates that I can use?
Also, the way I'm adding the https feels a bit 'hacky', is there a better way of doing this?
It fires at the very end of the chain so no further modifications by the plugin beyond this point.
Am I able to edit the settings object directly in the filter? I'm assuming they're contained somewhere in the $template object?
Ok, this will do as a fix I guess.
Actually that didn't work. Only worked when not selecting a template.
Thanks for posting back and letting us know. Sending a couple of points your way as a token of appreciation.
