I just ran into a former pal from high school, Charlie Pollock.
Charlie was in the class of '91 and I was in the class of '93, so I only hung out with him for a short while as we did a play together. Well, Leaguers, Charlie went on to broadway stardom and is now in the touring group for Urinetown.
Anyway, I was just telling my co-worker over lunch that I was going to see Urinetown on Sunday. On our way back, Charlie strolled by on his way to see a movie at the theater near my office. Weird world, huh?
It's been ten years, but it was good to see the guy. And i guess I'm going to see him again on Sunday. Only he'll be on stage this time. But, dammit! I was his understudy in our UIL production of A Midsummer Night's Dream! (Don't worry, I'm prepared to step in for him if anything goes wrong on this production, too.)
Let it be known that I, along with millions of others, watched the final episode of Friends.
I haven't really watched the show in two or three years, and my viewing has been sporadic during that entire time. And while it's not my favorite show (It's no MXC), one can certainly see how the show surpasses... oh... about 80% of the sitcoms out there. So, sure... there's nothing wrong with people liking it.
BUT (and there's always a but), in the first ten minutes, I was ready to turn off the finale for the same reason I turned off the show for the past several years. I get a weird, embarrassed feeling for David Schwimmer whenever I watch that show. Something about him or his character just drives me up the wall. I can't put my finger on it, but it's there. That, and Matthew Perry was much funnier when he was on uppers.
Most bizarre was that Friends, once again, had big emotional scenes using their airport sets. Man, those guys get an amazing amount of mileage out of the terminal sets they built for, I think, Season 2. People are always jetting off, or coming back on jets, and somehow, the airport has to be the place where they say their good-byes or "I love you's" or whatever.
Anyway, no big deal. The show is over, and I got through it without being constantly told how it had changed all of western civilization. THis is unlike the finale of Sex and the City (which I watched for, I think, 1/2 of a season in 2001), whose finale had entertainment journalists beating their breasts and wailing at the moon for a full month ahead of time.
In the next two years, we have several meltdowns to look forward to as the cast of Friends moves on to "movie stardom" and to try to get new projects off the ground. Several series are sure to follow on NBC, and if the past is any indication, they should all be outstanding successes. Ah... how we all enjoyed The Jason Alexander Show, Watching Ellie, and The Michael Richards Show. Good luck, guys!
After reporting on my friend, Jeff's progress on his wedding, Nordstrom posted this chilling tale of cross-border romance and the sea of red-tape which is keeping two people apart.
I am also reminded of another true life romance I was somewhat aware of back in Austin where a guy I knew fell in love with an American girl, but discovered all too late that legal issues would keep them from being together in the US, and so she ended up moving to Mexico. She had to give up a good paying job and say good-bye to family and friends in order to be with her new love.
Lately things have been sort of crappy. I don't know what the story is, but it feels as if I'm getting metaphorically kicked in the crotch quite a bit lately, and it's starting to make me edgy. Really. I'm getting really sick of it.
on the Tetsuo scale, I think I'm about right here right now...
It doesn't help that about three months ago i realized I probably am stuck in Arizona for the rest of my life as I have no clear means of ever returning to Texas, let alone Austin. And that's depressing as hell. I have a good paying job, and so does Jamie. I may not like my job, but it pays better than digging ditches, and it keeps me out of the broiling sun during the Arizona summer.
But even my job has turned from a job where I handled interesting multimedia projects into a job where I babysit faculty day in and day out as they whine about classroom space. it's chimp work and should be a minor, minor part of my job. Instead, it's turned into at least 25 hours a week of what I do.
I got my job threatened last week by one guy, another faculty called me at 4:30 yesterday to tell me he was unhappy about something we'd previously agreed upon, and he was going to pull his class from our program, effectively neutralizing the program (because he doesn't want to walk an extra quarter-mile to teach class two days a week).
My boss is asking me to create roll-away carts to create online multimedia, which seems like a splendid idea. Only I've done this before. It's a huge hassle, isn't worth the cost of what it takes to employ such a set-up, and the final product is usually pretty cheesy. In general, it's a terrible idea, and something only an engineer would dream up. No self-respecting video jock would create such a set-up as they would inherently recognize the flaws in such a set-up. Unfortunately, the video world is now run on the advice of engineers with toys more often than people who actually know a little about production work. Bleah.
There are a host of other, smaller and more annoying issues, but it seems that's all I deal with anymore. It's been a long time since I got up for work and actually was at least impassive about going. Lately it's been feeling like a real chore. And life's too short for that.
It's insane. it's 8:30 AM, and it's already a shitty day.
When you assume...
So I'd been loosely following the development of Cryptic Studios/ NC Soft's new release "City of Heroes", a massive multiplayer video game which one can play online. The basic gist is: you create a superhero and send them out into a massive virtual environment to fight crime. Sounds right up my alley.
Except I am not a gamer. Nor am I, despite my credentials, really much of a computer guy.
So I spent a good chunk of change on the game and pre-ordered it. It finally showed up at my house last night. I loaded it, all looked good.... until I realized I didn't have a good enough graphics card or even a good enough processor to play the game. In my computer I bought in December. And I have a laptop, so it's not like I can readily change out either item.
In order to even set-up the game, I had to get a subscription to the service which would allow me to play.
1) I can't return the game to Best Buy because I already opened it (that's their policy in Black and White)
2) I'm not sure if when I cancelled my subscription to the service if I am getting refunded for the 6 months I was too be billed for, and may be billed for 6 months instead of the two hours it took for me to decide to forego trying to make this work and just try to sell the copy of the game.
As I mentioned, I am not computer savvy. And I know there's a snickering army of Melvins out there saying "Snort! How did he think he could play a game on an Inspiron! Snort! He might as well have been using a Apple IIe! Hynuck hynuck!"
Cinco de Mayo!!!!
It's not about just boozing it up any more than that's what the 4th of July is about north of the border. But it's also not really officially Mexican Independence Day. So what is it?
Read here and here.
It's 1st Amendment Morning today at the League.
We don't need hooded government goons in this fair land of ours. We have CEO's with bottom line's and whatnot to worry about.
Michael Moore's new flick (sure to be boo'd by the right and overly lauded by the left) is being blocked from distribution by Disney head, Michael Eisner. Apparently, he just noticed that this Michael Moore chap, who one of his little subsidiaries works with, is a bit of a rabble rouser. He's effectively blocking release of Moore's new un-surprisingly anti-Bush documentary as he doesn't feel Disney should be entering into a political debate. Here's the story.
thanks to Nathan and Randy for pointing me to the story.
In more colorful news, the euphemism "getting your salad tossed" entered my universe late Sunday night, has popped up numerous times since then. I first heard it on, show of shows, MTV's Wildboyz. I wrote it off then, but it was yesterday, whilst browsing The Smoking Gun that I read up on Howard Stern and Jimmy Kimmel's attempts to get Oprah fined by the FCC. Apparently, Oprah had a show (pre-Janet Jackson's nipple) which was a "frank" discussion about sex. In which they bantied about terms like "tossing the salad".
Taking exception to being singled out by the FCC, Stern has been encouraging his listeners to write into the FCC to complain about the Winfrey program. ABC's Jimmy Kimmel, always one for anything potty-humored, has joined in the charge. Read about it here.
I encourage you to read the letters to the FCC. They're pretty funny. And the truth is, Stern has a point.
If anyone can locate Louis Black's anti-FCC rampage from The Daily Show from a month ago, let me know. (It's never easy explaining to your wife you know exactly what "Hot Carl" means.)
I just screwed up. Badly.
My friend, Jeff, sent out a group e-mail telling everyone that he CAN go to Mexico for his wedding. So delighted was I, that I replied to him an e-mail, said some nice things, and whatnot.
But I accidentally hit "reply to all", which means I sent nice things out to a hundred people.
I've known Jeff since I was 10, and this is surely less embarrassing than dozens of other things I've done in that time, but I did the equivalent of having a conversation with him in a crowded room while leaving a microphone on.
Ugh. It's hard to shake the creepy crawlies after you've done something like that.
I sent a Recall in Outlook, but I can only guess about how well that is going to work.
I am so embarrassed, my head hurts.
Thanks, Science!
Turns out owning a hybrid car could cause you some additional giref if you're in a car wreck.
ZAP!!!!
I am very excited about the upcoming models of hybrid car. I love the Forester, but with it's tiny tank and my weekly mileage, if I don't fill up every Monday, it can spell trouble.
Can Jim D. and Randy meet the challenge set before them?
Loyal Leaguers may recall that a month or so ago I challenged Jim and Randy to:
1) see Garfield: The Movie in the theater
2) write a full review of the movie for use on both of their sites and The League
The League is willing to fully fund the price of 1 ticket, a large popcorn and a soda of their choice for each participant. Girlfriends, kindly grandmothers, and random children chosen off the street must pay their own way. The League is not a charity.
So will they accept the challenge, or be all cowardly and stuff...? June 11th, we'll know for sure.
Ahhhhh... Hippie Hollow... my earliest memories of living in Austin (around age 10) include a conversation with a girl telling me how she drifted past Hippie Hollow in her family boat, and how a dude was hanging out naked on the rocks.
"It's a nude beach," she said.
"And he was naked."
"Yes. it was so gross."
"And you knew it was a nude beach."
"Yeah, it's Hippie Hollow."
"Why in God's name did your parents go by Hippie Hollow so slowly if they knew it was a nude beach?"
"Those people are freaks."
"That apparently your family likes to take long, lingering glances at."
"No way. We were just drifting by."
"We were!"
"Slow enough to look at the nude people."
"You're a freak."
Being married to me, my beautiful wife, Jamie, has to suffer through a lot. She's grown accustomed to a lot of the capes and superhero nonsense, and she's even embraced small bits of it (but I still can't get her to pick out a comic on her own if she ever winds up at the comic shop with me). Lately, the thing has been my school work for my grad class which has decimated the past several weekends as I slog through a project which I am not particularly fond of.
Gold star to her for putting up with me while she has to do all the real work around the house.
On another front, she was delighted to see pictures of Christian Bale in his batsuit. Apparently, the former Newsies star is the sort of dude Jamie likes to see in a pointy-eared cowl. So we both get something out of the new Batman movie, I guess.
I joined a gym this weekend. God help me. I need to go tonight or I am never going to make this work.
My friend Jeff Peek is having trouble with the US Immigration department. Jeff is marrying a lovely girl name of Adriana from Guadalajara. Apparently, the immigration services jacked up some paperwork, and now she may not be able to go to Mexico for the wedding without risking her immigration status. Sounds pretty awful from what he said, and being that Jeff is one of my oldest pals, I am really down hearing about it. They'll still get married, but the actual wedding and all that they have already put money down for is in serious jeopardy. Due to numerous factors, i was not going to the wedding in Mexico. Ugh. Poor guy.
And on a very different note... one of the biggest personal scandals to hit comics since Dave Sim declared women to be the root of all evil, anti-war activist/ comic artist Micah Wright was found out to NOT be an Army Ranger as he'd frequently asserted. Wright had published one book and was due to publish another book of retooled porpaganda posters driving toward anti-war sentiment. For years, he had always used the bulletproof defense that he was a former Army Ranger who had turned anti-war during the invasion of Panama. That is, until his lack of Ranger training, etc... was uncovered by the Washington Post.
Still, Wright asserts it was a "joke" and a "hoax", instead of admitting he's a big old liar.
Scandals liek this don't hit comics very often, but when they do... well, let's just say Wright isn't going to be working in comics again. He managed to embarass not just himself, but his publishers, editors and everyone else who ever believed him.
Reviews of movies I watched this weekend (God bless you, little DVR!).
20 Millions Miles to Earth
Ever since I was a little kid and had a book called "Movie Monsters!", I'd wanted to see this flick. It sounded really, really cool what with space ships and monsters. I'm always one for the vintage sci-fi and stuff.
But, as Randy lamented, the things we dug as kids don't always pan out to be as great as we thought they were.
It's the 50's, and our brave astronauts crash in the ocean outside Sicily while returning from Venus. The craft is absolutely enormous and very cool, until it disappears in the sea. A weird cowboy/ Italian kid who looks exactly liek Steve-o from MTV's Wildboyz discovers a big tube filled with some sort of egg in it. The cowboy/Italian/Steve-o sells the egg to a local doctor for the price of a Texas Cowboy hat.
Meanwhile, our alarmingly lantern jawed astronaut/ hero puts down his female doctor which makes her fall in love with him. (Note to self: always treat women like 2nd class citizens, and they will adore you) The female doctor is the neice or something of the doctor who got the egg. The egg hatches and out pops a monster from Venus.
Side note: everyone on board the rocket but the lantern jawed astronaut died of a mysterious venutian virus. THis is never mentioned again despite the fact a huge, venutian monster is running around the countryside contaminating god knows what.
Overnight the monster grows at an exponential rate (despite not being fed or watered or anything). The astronaut and the US space agency realize the egg is missing and go try to find it. Apparently the astronauts saw a lot of the things on the surface of Venus and learned only one thing: THe monsters can be harmed by electricity.
I guess we're to understand they flew all the way to Venus to figure out how to torture the native life.
And here's the important thing: the astronaut hero guy says that the monsters are only aggressive if provoked. And then the astronaut proceeds to poke the monster with a stick. Seriously. he finds a 20 foot pole and begins poking at the damn thing.
The monster retaliates by killing an Italian farmer. This leads them to believe the monster is dangerous, so they capture it, only to let it grow REALLY large. So, of course, the monster escapes. It runs into an elephant (they're keeping him at the zoo), has a pretty convincing fight with the elephant.
Knowing the monster is only aggressive if provoked, the military attacks it with bazookas, causing all kinds of havoc in the streets of Rome. Eventually, the thing falls off the Roman Collosseum and dies. The end
Proving that people are dumb as rocks, this movie asserts that, despite the fact the monster was our responsibility, we should kill it for, you know, trying to get out and about. Yet, this movie is still a bit of a sci-fi classic. Ray Harryhausen provided the special FX, and they're really, really good. But the questions one could raise about the game plan for containing this beast... anyway, the movie is pretty much the third act of King Kong stretched out to two hours.
I also saw Bridge on the River Kwai, which was infinitely better.

The pristine beach in San Juan, La Union, a surfing destination and home of the sea turtles, is under threat again after residents there found ongoing construction along the coast line.
Following the closure of Boracay island last April, La Union residents had sought to stop mass tourism and partying activities in their hometown to preserve it.
Photos and videos of a structure being built near the coast line of the popular Urbiztondo beach in the town of San Juan in La Union circulated on social media recently.
El Union, a local coffee shop, expressed its concerns on Instagram on October 2, condemning it as the "ruin" of a beach and a wildlife habitat.
The #LaboraficationofLaUnion. Heavy construction excavator on #pawikanbeach today north of Flots, in the middle of #seaturtle nesting season, building what looks like a permanent structure on the sacred sand. How can this be allowed? This is how to ruin a beach, and eventually a surfable wave. But more importantly it is how to ruin a natural wildlife habitat for ancient sea creatures who help keep the ecosystem in balance. Many of surftown's surfer-run establishments have gotten more #woke to environment concerns by having more disciplined waste water management, regular picking up of litter, discouraging smoking and and alcohol on the beach, and stopping bonfires that harm wildlife. But new establishments ride the surf tourism trend only to threaten the wellbeing of the beach and ocean we all know and love. Too much sand displacement could result in the loss of entire stretches of beach (look at Bauang), and maybe even the loss of the beautiful waves that give us surfers so much happiness, and others a source livelihood–both through surf lessons, and surf lifestyle oriented businesses. Are you OK with this? Such a tragedy.
"This is how to ruin a beach, and eventually a surfable wave. But more importantly it is how to ruin a natural wildlife habitat for ancient sea creatures who help keep the ecosystem in balance," El Union said in its caption.
Conservation group Coastal Underwater Resource Management Actions also shared a drone shot of the San Juan shore where a backhoe was excavating sand on Facebook.
In the video, the group detailed how the presence of heavy machinery poses a threat to the safety of beach-goers and to the endemic wildlife that live there.
When you build walls where walls are not meant to be then you alter the currents and the movement of sand. Sea turtles are dislocated by the altered landscape, too many people, too much noise and light, plus pollution. Decline of sea turtle population then will increase jellyfish population. Who wants to swim in jellyfish infested waters?If man alters the coastal landscape with no consideration for the impact on Nature, this will contribute to destruction. Marine life such as coastal plants, trees, and animals that have kept and maintained the balance of these areas will be destroyed.Nature has its own way to mitigate climate change and it has to do with the stability of coastal ecosystems. The coastal landscape is shaped by the ocean currents. The landscape along with the marine life (coastal vegetation and animals) are adapted to this environment. Because Nature has put them there, they are a part of the system that maintains its balance.It is hard to determine the exact location of salvage zones and the foreshore sites because we have moving sand dunes in San Juan. Sand dunes move from south to north during Habagat season. When there is a shift in wind direction during the cooler months of the year, the currents bring back the sands from the north to the south.This coincides with the sea turtle nesting season. That area where Panicsican Creek exits and the coastline going north are proven nesting sites. That is where 60 percent of turtle nests have been found by CURMA in the last 8 seasons. Other nesting sites are in Urbiztondo, Taboc, Ili Norte in San Juan.It's not even the natural habitat of man to live so close to the ocean. Instead of simply benefiting from that ecosystem and being its caretaker, Man is now disturbing this area. There will be no more tidal protection. The future of the whole area is compromised.We are destroying the very ecosystem that has kept us all alive and well. We are ruining the reason the coast is attracting tourism. There has to be a stop or we all suffer. May we ask the different agencies involved, both local and provincial, to please look into this. We must devote our best efforts to adhere to the preservation of nature.
CURMA told Interaksyon.com that a company called Green Portos Development Corporation was behind the construction activity.
This environmental situation prompted the regional DENR office in La Union to call the attention of San Juan Mayor Arturo P. Valdriz through a letter.
Valdriz soon heeded the concerns and issued a temporary halt order on the construction on October 3.
CURMA provided Interaksyon.com a screenshot of the letter that the local government issued to the private entity.
CURMA said in the video that the exact locations of the turtle nests are difficult to determine.
"Sand dunes move from south to north during Habagat season. When there is a shift in wind direction during the cooler months of the year, the currents bring back the sands from the north to the south," it explained.
"That area where Panicsican Creek exits and the coastline going north are proven nesting sites. That is where 60 percent of turtle nests have been found by CURMA in the last 8 seasons. Other nesting sites are in Urbiztondo, Taboc, Ili Norte in San Juan," it added.
Sea turtles should be protected, according to CURMA, because they regulate the number of jellyfishes in the beach.
It warned that the altered landscape will displace the sea turtles that nest in the area through the noise, lights, and especially pollution that the new structure offers.
"Decline of sea turtle population then will increase jellyfish population. Who wants to swim in jellyfish infested waters?" CURMA said.
In Article 51 of the Water Code of the Philippines, the banks of rivers, streams, seas and lakes within three meters in urban areas, twenty meters in agricultural area and forty meters in forest areas are only for public use only.


Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf would get a big payday to walk from the embattled bank, with $123.6 million in severance and stock value if he retires.
Wells Fargo (WFC) CEO John Stumpf stands to walk from the bank with $123.6 million in severance and stock value if he retires from the bank, which is still reeling from a scandal where hundreds of thousands of accounts were inappropriately opened for customers.
Stumpf's $123.6 million in potential retirement walking money, as calculated by pay consulting firm Equilar as of mid-September, is the sum of Stumpf's $25.2 million in retirement payments, plus a $20 million pension, deferred compensation of $4.3 million as well as the $74 million in stock he already owns. Neither Stumpf nor Wells Fargo has stated the CEO's continued employment is in doubt, but he is eligible for the bank's retirement plan. Wells Fargo declined to comment on this story.
Seeing such a large retirement package gets to the essence of the grilling Stumpf, 62, took on Congress this month. Stumpf confirmed no high-ranking officials have been fired or monetarily punished as a result of the alleged fraud. Wells Fargo, though, fired more than 5,000 low-level bank employees for secretly opening thousands upon thousands of accounts to meet aggressive sales targets set by management. U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., tore into Stumpf for not taking responsibility for the fraud. Stumpf testified the bank has reformed its sales practices and the board is evaluating further steps. Stumpf is already the best-paid bank CEO, pulling down $19.3 million last year.
Stumpf would surely prefer to retire, even if asked to do so by the board, as opposed to being terminated. Stumpf would forfeit his claim to the $25.2 million retirement benefit in the case of involuntary termination for cause, according to the company's plan documents, says Dan Marcec, director of content at Equilar. It's unclear if he would receive the pension and deferred compensation if terminated for cause, Marcec says.

List do Galatów [Ga], List do Galacjan [Gal] – jeden z listów apostoła Pawła, znajdujący się w Nowym Testamencie.

Galacja w Azji Mniejszej była rzymską prowincją, w której Paweł osobiście prowadził ewangelizację i założył lokalny kościół. Jednak po jego wyjeździe rozpowszechnił się w tym kościele ruch głoszący konieczność przyjęcia prawa żydowskiego, a zwłaszcza obrzezania przez nawracanych na chrześcijaństwo pogan. Paweł zwraca uwagę na fakt, że wiara i łaska, a nie wypełnianie przepisów prawa żydowskiego jest warunkiem zbawienia.

Treść listu
 1,1-5 — prolog
 1,6 – 2,21 — Paweł broni swojej ewangelii
 3,1-24 — zbawia wiara a nie prawo
 3,25 – 4,31 synostwo Boże
 5,1-15 — wolność chrześcijańska
 5,16-26 — przeciwieństwo ciało-duch
 6,1-10 — napomnienia
 6,11-18 — epilog.

Data powstania
Większość biblistów datuje powstanie Listu na rok 53, a więc po soborze jerozolimskim. Niektórzy datują na rok 57 ze względu na podobieństwo do 2 Koryntian.
 W Ga 4, 13 Paweł nadmienia: "gdy za pierwszym razem zwiastowałem wam Ewangelię", może to oznaczać, że był tam więcej niż jeden raz;
 Przybycie Pawła do Jerozolimy wspomniane w Ga 2, 1 nn utożsamia się z soborem apostolskim opisanym w Dz 15, 6-21.

Istnieją też argumenty na rzecz powstania tego Listu jeszcze przed Soborem Apostolskim, a więc na rok 48:

 List do Galatów mówi tylko o dwóch wizytach Pawła w Jerozolimie po jego nawróceniu (Ga 2, 1), natomiast według Dziejów Apostolskich Sobór Apostolski winien być trzecią jego wizytą;
 drugie przybycie Pawła do Jerozolimy, nastąpiło "po czternastu latach" (Ga 2, 1 nn), a więc ok. 44 roku – rok śmierci Heroda Agryppy I, śmierć ta opisana jest w Dz 12, 23 i miała miejsce podczas pobytu Pawła w Jerozolimie – Dz 12, 25 (por. Dz 11, 29-30);
 druga wizyta w Jerozolimie nastąpiła na skutek objawienia (Ga 2, 2), a to można zharmonizować z proroctwem Agabosa (Dz 11, 28);
 Ga 2, 9 wspomina Jakuba, który został ścięty w Dz 12, 2;
 Dz 15, 1. 24 nadmienia o judaistach z Jerozolimy, dobrze odpowiada "fałszywym braciom" z Ga 2, 4, List więc powstał na krótko przed soborem;
 w Liście do Galatów nie ma żadnych odniesień do ustaleń soboru, gdyby Paweł pisał po soborze prawdopodobnie powołałby się na te ustalenia, bo umocniłoby to jego argumentację.

Adresaci Listu
List jest pisany do kościołów w Galacji założonych przez apostoła Pawła podczas jego pierwszej podróży misyjnej. Są to: Antiochia Pizydyjska, Ikonium, Listra i Derbe.

Is your payment gateway really the trusted partner you need – or is it costing you sales? If any of these warning signs is showing in your business, it's time to look around for a more reliable alternative.
If you're selling anything online, your payment gateway provider is one of your most important partners. It's the vital interface between you, your customers and your bank that ensures your customers get to buy what they want, safely and conveniently – and that you get paid on time. Peter Harvey, Founder and MD of PayGate, makes us aware of some warning signs that are important to look out for if you're in the business of eCommerce.
Not everyone has a credit card, and even people with credit cards like to be offered more than one payment option. So if your payment gateway only accepts credit card payments, you're turning away customers at the till. There are three dominant payment methods in this market and you need to offer all of them: Credit cards, debit cards and direct bank transfers.
A good gateway should not only offer all three payment methods, it should also make it easy for you as the merchant. You should never have to create or log in to more than one account, or download multiple reports: All the information about every transaction through your gateway should be available in one place, where it's easy to download and interpret.
Things happen, and 100% uptime isn't necessarily an achievable goal – but if your gateway can't guarantee at least 99.9% uptime you need to ask them why not. At that level, you can expect eight or nine hours a year of downtime, during which your customers will encounter a locked door. That's inconvenient, but it's not going to kill your business. Drop down to 99%, though, and you're looking at 87 hours of downtime a year – that's almost four days. Can you afford to lose four days of sales this year?
The research is very clear on this: The more hoops we have to jump through as customers before we can complete a purchase, the more likely we are to give up. So if your customers have to register on your website before they can buy, they'll grumble a bit but most of them will stick with you. But if, having done that once, they get asked to register a second time before they can actually pay, they're far more likely to give up. Your payment gateway should be helping to make purchases easier, not more difficult.
When you have a problem and you pick up the phone to your gateway partner, can you reliably expect the phone to be answered – by someone who can actually solve the problem? That's the level of service you should expect – if you're not getting it, look elsewhere.
There are various specialist fraud protection services available, but they can be expensive, difficult and time-consuming to run. If you're not a large corporate, it's not going to work for you. That's where your service provider should step in, offering affordable and easy to use fraud protection at the gateway level. It's only one of several different ways you can protect yourself, but it's not one most businesses should ignore. If your payment gateway doesn't help protect you from credit card fraud, they are not the partner you need.
In the end, it all comes down to customer focus: As an online retailer, you know you have to put in a lot of time and effort to make shopping on your site an enjoyable, easy experience that your customers will tell their friends about. If that effort is being undermined at the last minute because one of your key partners is making it difficult for your customers to complete their purchases, that's not the partner you need.


It is very common for life scientists to use spreadsheets to record and manage experimental data. In these problems we will build up a discipline of data management for genome-scale experiments using R and Bioconductor.
It may seem unusual to recommend R-based software for managing data. Ordinarily R is used for programming and computing statistical analyses. However, Bioconductor has taken very seriously the need to carefully annotate, in a unified way, many aspects of complex biological experiments. This approach allows us to import assay outputs (such as multiple microarray scans, or multiple sequencing alignments), combining them with relevant metadata about the experiment and the samples assayed, saving all the information in a single R variable. By carefully designing the structure of this variable, programs can operate reliably on various aspects of the data. Ultimately a more efficient management and analysis environment is obtained.
We will come to understand this enhancement of efficiency by working from some very basic representations of experimental data, proceeding stepwise to more advanced integrative representations that are the hallmark of Bioconductor's approach to genome-scale data.
1.0 Distinct components from an experiment.
We need to ensure that the gene expression data in the matrix geneExpression are ordered consistently with the ordering of data in sampleInfo, and to do this we need to know which column of sampleInfo identifies the samples using the same tags as geneExpression.
Therefore, to relate gene expression to a sample characteristic we need to manipulate three different entities (expression, sample annotation, and gene annotation), ensuring that they are properly coordinated.
It works, but it is complicated. To reduce complexity, Bioconductor defines ExpressionSet.
There are high-level commands that simplify ExpressionSet construction.
1.2 Metadata management. It is useful to have information about an experiment's intentions and methods ready-to-hand. Some of the arrays used for GSE5859 were produced for a 2004 paper with Pubmed ID 15269782. We can, if connected to the internet, import information about that paper into R.
##   Title: Genetic analysis of genome-wide variation in human gene expression.
##   Abstract: A 167 word abstract is available. Use 'abstract' method.
Check the display of e in your session. Then Use the command experimentData(e) <- p. How has the display of e changed? What is the result of experimentData(e)?
We have moved fairly quickly through the creation and use of an ExpressionSet instance to illustrate some of its virtues. We will now provide some details on why and how this structure is designed and used.
to control memory consumption as assay data are passed to analytical functions.
So much for "why", to this point. "How" takes us for an excursion in software design strategy: object-oriented programming in R with the class system known as S4.
"responds to" generic method calls in a class-specific way.
This shows that there are 7 'slots' comprising the class definition. Only the annotation slot is occupied by a simple R data type. All the other slots are to be occupied by instances of other S4 classes (or more basic R data types).
So we see that S4 allows us to define new data structures that encapsulate diverse types of information. We could do this with the very general "list" structure provided by R. But S4 allows us to guarantee properties of our new structures so that programs defined for these structures do not have to "check" on what they are operating on. The checks are built in to the class system.
We are familiar with the data.frame structure from base R. Bioconductor introduced the DataFrame class to provide some additional capabilities that will be heavily exploited later.
Short read sequencing leads to data collections that are more voluminous than gene-oriented microarray outputs.
Sequencing experiments may also be analyzed in more varied ways, so that it is valuable to provide efficient access to assay outputs at various levels of granularity.
A typical data flow for RNA-seq studies has phases 1) chromatographic display of base calls per cycle (seldom provided after, say, 2008), 2) base calls over the read length, with quality values, in FASTQ format, 3) feature quantification through statistical processing of genomic or transcriptomic alignments, 4) genome-scale archiving of multiple samples for inference on biologic questions of interest. FASTQ files are often developed in pairs for each sample.
The RNAseqData.HNRNPC.bam.chr14 package includes BAM files derived from paired-end sequencing of 8 samples of HeLa cell lines, 4 of which were subjected to RNA interference to "knock down" the expression of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins C1 and C2 (denoted hnRNPC). This family of nuclear proteins is involved in pre-mRNA processing. We will demonstrate some approaches to managing the data from BAM to archived counts related to HNRNPC.
The BAM file pathnames are available in a character vector stored in the RNAseqData… package.
We use the Rsamtools package to manage these using a single variable.
The BAM files include a limited amount of metadata about the genome to which the reads were aligned. This is propagated to the BamFileList instance.
This identifies a region of chromosome 14 to which the HNRNPC coding gene is annotated for hg19. A simple way of assessing the expression quantifications uses summarizeOverlaps from the GenomicAlignments package. This counting method will implicitly use multicore computation.
5.1 Examine the contents of the count component of hnse. What are the column identifiers for quantifications corresponding to the HNRNPC knockdown?
5.2 Add a variable condition with values knockdown and wildtype to the colData component of hnse.
5.3 Samples with identifier suffixes 306 and 307 are technical replicates of a single control sample; likewise for 308 and 309. Consequently there are six different biological samples in use. Add a variable to colData distinguishing these six samples.
Bioinformaticians work in an environment that is constantly changing. Computer capacity and throughput has increased dramatically since Bioconductor began (around 2000CE). The R language has also changed considerably. In the early days, it was important to be very economical about memory consumption, and R's semantics at that time led to some inefficiencies through copying of objects in memory as they are passed to functions. Copying does not occur for R objects of class 'environment', and this led to the adoption of environments for storage of voluminous assay data.
This is a very special type of object for R. It can be thought of as a container for a reference to the matrix of expression values.
4.1. Explain the following findings.
##  "Mean relative difference: 0.25"

The spectacular kalamkari painting of "Virabhadra" is given a resoplandent treatment with some beautiful colour pattern. Virabhadra was born out of the wrath of "Rudra (Shiva)", when the Lord stepped in to destroy the Yagna of "Daksha Prajapati", after "Dakshayani (Sati)" or Devi self-immolated in yagna fire. Along with him was created, his consort Bhadrakali, from the wrath of Devi. V?rabhadra was a great warrior who eventually blinded Bhaga and broke, among many other countless gods, Pushan's teeth. Other gods fled the battle field unable to sustain his power. He is the head of Shiva Gana or the followers of Shiva. Sati was the youngest daughter of Daksha, the chief of the gods. When Sati grew up she set her heart on Shiva, worshipping him in secret. In the Swayamvara of Sati, Daksha invited all gods and princes except Shiva. Sati cast her wreath into air, calling upon Shiva to receive the garland; and behold he stood in midst of the court with the wreath about his neck. Daksha had no choice but to marry Sati with Shiva. One day Daksha made arrangements for a great horse sacrifice, and invited all the gods omitting only Shiva. Sati, being greatly humiliated, went to the banquet and Sati released the inward consuming fire and fell dead at Daksha's feet. Narada bore this news to Shiva. Shiva burned with anger, and tore from his head a lock of hair, glowing with energy, and cast upon the earth. The terrible demon V?rabhadra sprang from it, his tall body reached the high heavens, he was dark as the clouds, he had a thousand arms, three burning eyes, and fiery hair; he wore a garland of skulls and carried terrible weapons. V?rabhadra bowed at Shiva's feet and asked his will.

Jávea Moors and Christians Festival

Moors and Christians in Javea
Family fun With friends Javea Festivals and fairs Night life
Abahana Villas - Detail of the dress of the Moors and Christians of Jávea.
There are not many festivals in Spain which are organised by the townspeople themselves, without big money sponsors, and fewer still as colourful and spectacular as this one.
Swords, catapults, long cloaks, face painted with fanciful designs, winding turbans. The participants' costumes and make up is really impressive, particularly in its attention to detail, the spectacular floats or the proud horses with their shining coats galloping loudly down the street.
The music bands are really threatening, especially at nightfall with the contrast between the dark and the lights helping to create a mysterious atmosphere. The attention to detail is admirable: all around are embossed belts, Moorish slippers, feathered headpieces or fantastic "gold and silver" from mysterious far away lands. Here and there the brave Christian warriors hold up their symbols; the eagles, lions and crosses, against the crescent moons and horns emblazoned on the uniforms and equipment of the ferocious Moors.
The Moors and Christians festival recreates an era which combined bloody battles and peaceful coexistence as well as moments of mutual mistrust. All the colour, show and ostentatiousness of these celebrations is an attempt to overcome the seven long centuries of war such as during the Muslim invasion and the later Christian reconquest.
In Jávea the celebrations are held in the third week in July, with impressive parades of Moorish and Christian women as well as the Muslim landing on the beach or the Christian assault on the castle and the surrender of the Moors.
The main parade, known as the Filà Capitana de Contrabandistas de Xábia, ends with a spectacular firework display which fill the Jávea streets with light and sound. The party goes on into the night and, far from the bad feeling of old, the Christian and Moorish troops party together as friends.
Come and join in this journey into the past, a festival full of good, clean fun and a real spectacle of light, sound and colour.

Toyota Production System – The purpose of Toyota Production System ideology is to make quality products ordered by customers in the quickest and the most efficient way, in order to deliver products as quickly as possible.
Kaizen – is the Japanese term for continuous improvement, an approach to increase manufacturing firm's competitiveness on an on-going basis through a series of small, gradual improvements.
Lean Production – Lean production is a philosophy that believes in quality, eradicates waste and creates a flow of only value adding activities. It only makes what is pulled by the customer Just in Time. Asprova is your friend in need, our advanced production scheduling software will assist you to implement Lean Production.
Taiichi Ohno – The man who did the most to structure the Toyota Production System as an integrated framework was Taiichi Ohno. He developed a number of tools to operate his production format in a systematic framework. The best known of those tools is the Kanban system, which provides for conveying information in and between processes on instruction cards.
Seven Types of Waste – Businesses are examining every area of their supply chain to reduce costs and therefore improve efficiency. Reducing waste has become a key component of any cost reduction program that is being implemented. Taiichi Ohno, the pioneer of TPS identified the concept of 'MUDA' or 'Seven Wastes'. When companies are considering their waste minimization programs, the reduction in 'MUDA' will produce cost savings greater than the initial investment.
Ask Why Five Times – This method helps to determine the cause-effect relationships in a problem or a failure event. It can be used whenever the real cause of a problem or situation is not clear.In this article, we will see how using the Ask Five Why's is a simple way to solve a stated problem without large detailed investigation requiring resources.
Jidoka – This one of the two pillars of the Toyota Production System along with just-in-time that can help you achieve true excellence. It is about quality at source, or built in quality; no company can survive without outstanding quality of product and service and thus Jidoka is the route through which this is achieved.Read the article to learn more.
Muda, Muri and Mura – Applying the lean principles to manufacturing companies has largely focused on identifying and eliminating waste (in Japanese: muda). However, Lean Thinking equally aims to remove overburden (Japanese: muri) and unnecessary variation (Japanese: mura).
5S – The 5S is the methodology of creation and maintaining well organized, clean, highly efficient and supreme quality workplace. Its result is the effective organization of the workspace, work flow with the intent of improving competence by eliminating waste, removal of losses associated with failures and breaks, reduced process inefficiencies and improved safety of work.
Gemba Walk – This concept was started at Toyota by Taiichi Ohno who is credited for the Toyota Production System. It is a problem solving paradigm in lean thinking that encourages first hand observation at the point where a problem is happening.
Henry Ford – The founder of the Ford Motor Company–was a remarkable leader, entrepreneur, and inventor. Not only did he invent the modern assembly line for building cars, but he made car ownership–and the freedom to travel that came along with it–affordable for millions of Americans.
Continuous Improvement Tool: Quality Circle – Quality circles have been hailed to be an effective tool for linking employees to the process of decision making in their work premise and hence enhancing their motivation to work and perform. Being a participative approach, Quality Circle programs were one of the major initiatives of manufacturing companies in the last decade that has revealed great success in terms of increasing organizational effectiveness and empowering employees, in both public and private organizations.

Q: how to pass custom parameter through submit button in mvc4 Hello everyone i am creating a login page using mvc4 wherein the login credentials are fetched from the database. In the database the relevant table contains 3 columns namely: userid, password and partnerid. When the user enters his credentials and clicks submit button, and if the login is successful, he is taken to a page whose address is like this :
http://localhost:58361/Home?result1=true

this is my submit button code:
<input type="submit" value="Login" class="login_button" onclick="return validateLoginPage()" />

here validateLoginPage is a js function which checks whether any input fields are not left blank.
My requirement is that on click of submit button the address of the page to which the user is redirected be shown like this:
http://localhost:58361/Home?result1=true?partnerid='somevalue'

The partnerid value is taken from the database and stored in a ViewData
how to achieve this? Thanks in advance
EDIT
This is the actionresult for the submit button
    public ActionResult Index(LoginModel model,string res)
    {
        LoginUser = model.Userid;
        LoginPassword = model.Password;
        verify(LoginUser, LoginPassword);
        res = result;
        if (res == "true")
        {
            return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home", new { result1 = result });
        }
        else
        {
            ViewData["alert"] = "The Login Credentials are Incorrect";
            return View();
        }
    }

The verify method verifies with the database whether the login credentials are correct or not and returns the string value "result" as true or false

A: If I understand you correctly, you want to submit a form that directs user to
Home?result1=true?partnerid='somevalue'

I interpret that as going to Home Controller with null action (defaulting to Index) and passing result1=true always, and partnerid from ViewData
    @using(Html.BeginForm(null, "Home", FormMethod.Get,
new { result1=true, partnerid='@(ViewData["somevalue"])' })) //for query string

Warning: As Karthik has consderately pointed out, this code is untested. It's more to demonstrate the point:

A: Create an hidden input holding your value like this:
<input type="hidden" value="XXX" name="refNameHere" />

A: Assuming that I've understood your question correctly and your controller method for Home Index looks something like this
public ActionResult Index(int partnerid)
{
    ViewBag.PartnerId = partnerid;
    return View();
}

You should be fine with doing this in your login method
public ActionResult Login()
{
    // Authentication stuff goes here
    return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home", new { partnerid = 1 });
}

Since you added the code for the action that handles the login that simplifies my edit.
All you would have to do would be to get the partnerid from your data source, put it in a string and wrap it in '' and then change
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home", new { result1 = result });

to
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home", new { result1 = result, partnerid = partnerId });

then you would have to add an Index action on your HomeController to take string parameters named result1 and partnerid and everything should work

In 1998 we took on the challenge of transforming a disused wharf storage shed into a vibrant, friendly and relaxed cafe on the Geelong foreshore. Fast forward and we're thrilled to have created the popular restaurant people know and love today.
The Wharf Shed Cafe has become synonymous with the Geelong waterfront, helping transform what was a disused and overlooked part of the town into a thriving tourist attraction. Our cafe was the first commercial business to come to life as part of the city's Steampacket redevelopment in the mid-1990s, a government-led project to boost tourism to the waterfront.
Visit our restaurant and you will see we have retained original features of what was originally a bond store situated on the Moorabool Street pier in the early 1900s. That was before the city decommissioned and demolished the pier in the 1950s. Our building moved to its current location and for a period served as a marine fuelling station, followed by a Telstra network exchange.
Since opening our waterfront restaurant's doors, we're proud to have provided thousands of loyal customers and tourists with a great dining experience, serving quality food with a superb backdrop that is second to none. Others just come to enjoy a relaxed drink in the bar that's nearest the water.
Geelong is earning a reputation as a go-to destination in Victoria and the historic Wharf Shed cafe is one of the businesses helping our coastal city claim its rightful place as Victoria's second capital city and the thriving hub of the popular Bellarine and Surf Coast tourism regions.
Whatever your reason for visiting, we guarantee you'll enjoy your time at the Wharf Shed Cafe, an iconic and historic building. Come and see for yourself or contact us for more information.


The City of Wabash returned nearly $2 million in unspent monies to its General Fund at the end of 2018.
By decreasing department spending, factoring in money that cannot be spent from property tax caps, creating an energy efficient plan and limiting the increase to the city's healthcare budget, a total of $1.98 million was returned to the General Fund and will be used on railroad projects and blighted areas of Wabash.
The city's leadership and Clerk Treasurer Wendy Frazier focused fiscal responsibility and fund distribution in 2018, according to a press release from the city.
"It's just what we do. We look at everything and see what we can save and what we can fix," she said.
Part of the energy efficient plan, the city saved an estimated $10,000 in 2018 by switching all of its lighting fixtures to LED, the release said.
In addition, Frazier said the city's healthcare fund will be increased by less than 1 percent this year.
Long said the city anticipates using the returned funds for "large-scale expenditures exceeding $100,000," this year, including making improvements to the former GDX Automotive location on Stitt Street that has been vacant since 2007. The mayor also anticipates using the money as matching funds to obtain grants for a railroad overpass.

Switzerland bans all major events to stop coronavirus contagion
The Local - [email protected] • 28 Feb, 2020 Updated Fri 28 Feb 2020 10:38 CEST
The Swiss government on Friday said it was suspending all events in the country involving more than 1,000 participants until March 15 in a bid to stop new coronavirus contagion.
"Large-scale events involving more than 1,000 people are to be banned. The ban comes into immediate effect and will apply at least until March 15th," the government said in a statement after the country registered its ninth case.
"In the case of public or private events at which fewer than 1,000 people would gather, event organisers must carry out a risk assessment in conjunction with the competent cantonal authorities to decide whether or not the event can be held".
The government said it was "aware that this measure will have a significant impact on public life in Switzerland" but added that "it should prevent or delay the spread of the disease, thus reducing its momentum".
The federal government said that the scale of the outbreak allowed it to take special powers to order measures that are normally the responsibility of Switzerland's cantons.
"The cantons are responsible for enforcing the ban," the statement said.
Health Minister Alain Berset said that similar measures had proved "effective" in other countries.
He told reporters that the number of cases in Switzerland was "not a surprise for us", adding: "We have to expect an increase in cases in the next few days".
Coronavirus or Covid-19 has already taken a toll on major exhibitions and other events in Switzerland.
Organisers of Geneva's international expo of fine watches said Thursday they had decided to cancel the April event because of the spread of the new coronavirus.
"In view of the latest developments concerning the worldwide spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus... the decision has been taken to cancel the upcoming edition of Watches and Wonders Geneva", said the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie.
Earlier this month, Swatch canceled its Zurich trade show over coronavirus fears and the International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva had been postponed until September.
Another major event, Geneva International Motor Show, scheduled to begin on March 5th, will go on despite the coronavirus spread, its organisers announced.

Metro College is a registered PCC under the Private Career Colleges Act by the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development (MAESD). As such, MAESD requires certain student outcomes to be reported as Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The three KPIs being reported are: Graduation Rate; Employment Rate; and Student Loan Default Rate. For Graduate Employment rate, graduates are contacted six (6) months after student graduation through telephone surveys conducted by Forum Research.
Students have 200% of a program's duration to graduate in order to be considered a graduate in the "Graduation rate" For example, for a 26 week program, students would need to graduate within 52 weeks of enrollment to be considered a graduate for this rate.
The Graduate Employment Rate means the percentage of an institution's graduates who sought employment and became employed within six (6) months following their graduation from the institution, or as otherwise determined. The labour force is defined as those employed, those not employed but looking for a job, or those not employed but who have accepted a job to start shortly. This KPI is calculated by contacting graduates employment status six-months following graduation.
The OSAP Default rate is percentage of number of loan recipients in default as a percentage of the number of total loan recipients.
In the event that you will see "SS" or "ND" in place of KPI rates, "SS" means "Small Sample" and is used to indicate when the sample size is less than five. These numbers are still included in the accumulative program category and institution results. "ND" means "No Data" and is used to indicate that there were no enrolled students or graduates that met the necessary criteria to be included in that calculation.

There are many haunted castles in the world and perhaps no more so than in Scotland.
Scottish castles are numerous and all with their own story to tell. Centuries of feuding both amongst the clans themselves and against the English provide an amazing and colourful backdrop to the profile of so many castles in Scotland. No wonder many of them are haunted!
Take Glamis Castle for instance which is reported to be haunted by more than one ghost. These include the Grey Lady and the White Lady have both been seen at Glamis Castle. The White Lady has been seen the least but is thought to possibly be the ghost of Janet Douglas. She was wife to the 6th Lord Glamis (John) back in the 16th century and after his death became wife to Archibald Campbell; she was imprisoned in Edinburgh Castle by King James V and later burnt at the stake on Castle Hill. Another ghost is believed to be that of Earl Beardie, a gambler and card player whose strange story is well worth reading in full on our Glamis Castle page.
Skibo Castle is another reputedly haunted castle in Scotland. Renovated by Andrew Carnegie in the early 20th century, Skibo Castle is a wonderful example of castle architecture and design and was chosen by Madonna and Guy Ritchie as their wedding venue back in 2000. The main ghost at Skibo Castle is that of a girl who is said to have disappeared there whilst on a visit. At the time it was thought she was murdered by the Castle's keeper who hid her body within the grounds. In later years during renovations, a female skeleton was found behind one of the castle walls!

International sales house Latido Films and Portuguese pubcaster RTP are boarding high-end TV series project "South," a Lisbon-set noir crime drama by Portugal's Ivo M. Ferreira ("Letters From War").
Selected for pitching on Feb. 21 at the CoPro Series, part of the 2018 Berlinale Co-Production Market, "South" is set up at Portugal's Arquipélago Filmes, founded by series' producer Edgar Medina.
One of the biggest names in current Portuguese Cinema, director Ivo M. Ferreira returns to Berlin with "South" after his third feature film, "Letters From War," competed in 2016 at the festival, becoming Portugal's entry in the race for the 2017 Academy Awards.
Scheduled to roll in Portuguese-language in Lisbon, from April to June, the one season TV skein would be concluded by September-October and available in two formats: as a 10 45-minute episodes and a five 90-minute segs.
The TV drama is set over a long hot summer in Lisbon, during the present-day economic and social crisis, where a series of shocking murders take place, which are investigated by Inspector Humberto, a seasoned homicide detective.
The investigation leads to an hallucinatory trip through the city's evangelist churches of the city, influential law firms, high political echelons, bankruptcy and money-laundering schemes.
Edgar Medina co-writes the TV drama alongside scribe Guilherme Mendonça.
"We have placed a crime noir fiction in the most exciting and undiscovered of settings – old Lisbon. We unveil its darkest sides: a genuine experience combining an international narrative with a local flavor and characters, a true Mediterranean crime noir," Medina said.
"We relocate values associated with cinema to a TV sphere, as is the case of Ivo M. Ferreira, one of the most exciting on-the-rise directors in Europe," he added.
Madrid-based Latido Films is handling international sales rights, marking company's early foray into TV drama sales.
Public broadcaster RTP has also boarded the project, which counts on support from the Portuguese Film Institute.
"South" "represents an incredible combination of talent, in what can be seen as a 'next generation' TV series: a mixture of great storytelling with cinema-quality visuals, a team of expert producers and a great director leading the project," said Latido CEO Antonio Saura.
"Although the original version is in Portuguese, we feel that the new TV allows for subtitles or directly dubbing to make it even more international," he added,
"If we love to see TV in Danish, which is a language spoken by six million people, why can't a TV series in Portuguese which is spoken in Portugal (10 million inhabitants) and Brazil (200 million)?"
"The concept deals with issues we all relate to: a mystery, crooked politicians, the upper classes' hidden, pressures to close down a case, and a disenchanted man with ethics that prevail against anything," Saura concluded.

Halls of mirrors on stage
The book, "Hall of Mirrors on Stage - An Introduction to Psychotherapeutic Playback Theatre" is the first to present Playback Theatre as a form of group psychotherapy. This unique field of therapy, the theoretical thinking behind it, as well as the numerous different considerations and diverse possibilities involved in using this technique, are all discussed in detail in the book. We now present it to readers as a possible path towards expansion and growth as conductors in this newly evolving field of group therapy.
The creation of a multi-level theory which, on one hand, is anchored in concepts from the fields of psychoanalysis, theater, art history and philosophy and; on the other, is based on a spontaneous and elusive experience – is, in its very essence, replete with contradictions. Our many years in the field, and the numerous experiences accumulated whilst assembling the ideas presented in this book, led us to the understanding that contradictions become paradoxes, which manage to contain seemingly hidden aspects as parts of the whole. The psychotherapeutic process through Playback Theatre, works in a similar manner. This process embraces both group psychoanalytic therapy, as well as performance-theatrical improvisation, producing echoes created by reflections and imagination. Psychotherapeutic Playback Theater (PPT) provides an opportunity for growth - emerging from the gap existing between the individual and his community, flexibility and creativity alongside structure and permanence. All of these components are directed towards the paradoxical moment when the individual suddenly recognizes himself in new ways; like looking into a mirror for the very first time. In these paradoxical moments, the different aspects of the individual's experience co-exist simultaneously, complementing one another and, as a result, enabling transformation.
MacKenzie Gets Up on Stage
The article was published in the journal of the Israeli Association of Group Psychotherapy, Mikbatz.
Playback Theater is a communally structured improvisational theater in which a group of actors creates a theatrical event in response to a personal life story told by an audience member. Psychotherapy in Playback Theater is a group therapy approach which places the playback ritual in the center of it. This essay will deal with psychotherapy groups using Playback Theater and will focus on the way stages in the group process, based on a model created by MacKenzie & Livesley, come to expression (MacKenzie & Livesley, 1983). We will offer tools for recognizing the stage in which the group is at as well as offer the appropriate interventions for every stage, by means of structured theatrical patterns from the psychotherapy world of Playback Theater.
Different theories dealing with groups perceive group therapy as one that progresses in stages. MacKenzie (MacKenzie, 1990) describes three independent dimensions when depicting the group: attachment, avoidance and conflict. This essay will focus on the way the theatrical representations which arise in the group process in psychotherapy in Playback Theater express these three dimensions. Therefore the process enables the experience of a concrete stage for the theater of the soul. The model we suggest enables the group to deal with the developmental tasks each group stage poses before the participants, using tools from the psychotherapy field in Playback Theater.
This essay will focus on a model created by MacKenzie & Livesley, a model which portrays the typical group climate, in which every stage of the model incorporates a central developmental task which includes a series of interpersonal issues to which the group must address in order to keep developing. MacKenzie & Livesley's group model is a super-theory with six development stages: 1. the attachment stage 2. the separation stage 3. the individuation stage 4. the intimacy stage 5. the mutuality stage 6. the parting stage.

How The IRS Can Be A Minneapolis Duplex Seller's Best Friend | Your best resource for buying, selling, owning and investing in duplexes and duplex homes.
I've recently met with several prospective duplex home sellers who, facing a slower real estate market, were surprised to find the IRS could save the day.
In each case, the property owners had owner-occupied their duplexes at some point in the last five years, ultimately moving out and renting their old unit.
Of course, one of the benefits of owner occupying a duplex is the ability to avoid any capital gains tax on the unit that wasn't leased; provided the owner lived in the premises two of the last five years.
While I encouraged all of these sellers to consult a qualified tax professional, most reported back by selling now and avoiding capital tax on their half of the duplex, they would be saving thousands of dollars.
This was a bit of a silver lining for them, as it was as if they'd found some of the money they thought they'd lost; in the sofa.


Like many Arctic Monkeys fans, I've been eagerly awaiting a new album since album number five, AM, exploded into our lives five years ago. I remember that I had just moved into my student house, ready to start my second year of university, and we would be ecstatic every time our favourite Sheffield nightclub, Leadmill, blasted out 'R U Mine?' or 'Do I Wanna Know?' on a night out.
Since then, I've enjoyed seeing Arctic Monkeys perform at Leeds festival the following summer, before seeing Alex Turner back up on stage at Glastonbury in 2016 with fellow musician Miles Kane as part of their band The Last Shadow Puppets. Having first seen Arctic Monkeys at Leeds Festival all the way back in 2005 after the release of their debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, I am no stranger to Alex Turner's transformations.
And that's why this transformation into Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino feels like no surprise at all, especially to fans who are familiar with Humbug, Last Shadow Puppet's Everything You've Come To Expect and Turner's solo EP Submarine. You only had to glimpse at the teaser artwork for Tranquility and the band promo photos to know that we were about to be invited into a new chapter in Arctic Monkeys' lives.
While I'm not surprised that the new album has divided fans, I am always baffled when fans declare how they feel personally 'betrayed'. Something that always frustrates me about the relationship between fans and bands is how some fans believe that music is made for them. Indeed, some musicians in the industry (with the push of their producers I'm sure), churn out music that they know will sell. But for bands like Arctic Monkeys, it's never been about this. Bands who are passionate about their music never began writing and recording music with the intention of selling millions. Hell, the majority of them didn't even expect to sell tickets at their local venue. For them, music is their creative outlet, it's how they express themselves, and it's what they truly live for. Therefore they do not owe us fans anything.
Sure Arctic Monkeys could have chosen to create a sequel to AM knowing it would satisfy their long-awaiting fans, but I'm glad they chose not to. Otherwise, I would be worried that they had lost their musical direction entirely. In his recent interview with Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1, Turner admits that "The guitar had lost its ability to give me ideas. Every time I sat with a guitar I was suspicious of where it was gonna go. I had a pretty good idea of what I might be which is completely contrary to what I felt when I sat at the piano." (NME).
I absolutely loved Alex Turner's interview with Annie Mac. It was fascinating to hear his thought process behind Tranquility and reassuring to hear that he still has so much creative energy and passion to put into his music. After listening to the new album a few times, I've been able to appreciate Turner's poetic lyrics all over again. If anything, these songs are his most sophisticated yet.
I'm happy that Arctic Monkeys are passionate enough about their music to take this new direction and I'm so excited to see them live once more in September!

- Rolls Royce Wraith Eagle VIII
Rolls Royce Wraith Eagle VIII
The gaudiest bespoke car ever made.
To mark the centenary of the first non-stop transatlantic flight, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars recently debuted their bespoke design, the Wraith Eagle VIII, in Italy. The collection of 50 motor cars tells the epic tale of the pioneering flight of Captain John Alcock and Lieutenant Arthur Brown who conquered unchartered skies to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a Vickers Vimy aircraft, powered by twin Rolls-Royce Eagle VIII engines, exactly 100 years ago.
The new Wraith Eagle VIII's allusions to Alcock and Brown's flight begin with its exterior. Its two-tone Gunmetal and Selbey Grey colour scheme is separated by an almost imperceptible brass feature line inspired by the brass sextant the two men used to navigate the night skies during their flight. Meanwhile, its black grille vanes are a reference to the engine cowling on the aircraft.
But inside the car is where the magic happens. Once you open up the coupe's suicide doors, there's references to the historic flight everywhere you look. Cowhide leather abounds, while the doors and smoked eucalyptus wood dashboard—designed to recreate what Alcock and Brown saw when they looked out the cockpit—have their fair share of brass details, including speaker covers engraved with "1,880 miles." There's also a compass-inspired clock that looks just like the frozen one the two pilots had in their plane, only it works.
But the most jaw-dropping touch is the headliner, which features 1,183 starlight fibers depicting the celestial arrangement at the time of the flight. Along with hand-embroidered clouds, it shows the flight path and constellations stitched in brass thread and a red fiber optic light that indicates the exact moment the duo left the clouds to navigate by the stars.
Having put so much care and attention to detail in to the car, Rolls-Royce has also made sure that the luxe vehicle, which debuted at this year's Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, is rare, too. According to the company, only 50 Wraith Eagle VIIIs will be produced for collectors at its headquarters in Goodwood, West Sussex, with the price still unknown.
