Q: Salesforce Connected App OAuth Process in Hybrid Mobile Application I have created a hybrid mobile application using Salesforce Ionic starter app from this url: http://coenraets.org/blog/cordova-phonegap-3-tutorial/.
I am facing a problem, that every time a user logs in he has to allow the connected app. I think it should be only once that the user should Allow and for his subsequent logins he should be given the access normally as done with Facebook or Twitter OAuth.
I think I am not setting some parameter or making some call properly.
I am using the ForceJS SDK and calling the force.init to initialise it. It automatically calls the custom salesforce oauth plugin for cordova. Please help.

A: Generally speaking (I'm not familiar with SalesForce mobile dev) if you are using the SDK provided correctly (seemed hard to misuse, only it didn't support the latest Cordova versions?) it should keep the app allowed. That indicates that the problem is with your SalesForce settings.
Inside SalesForce, go to
Setup | Administration Setup | Manage Apps | Connected Apps

and have a look at
Require Users to Log In

option. Is it set so that users only need to log in the first time they use the app, and the permissions are maintained?
If that doesn't help, try out the settings described here here, especially the refresh token part.

Recital season is looming on the horizon, and it's time to make song selections! In the name of fairness, I make a point to give students the opportunity to submit requests for recital songs before we make a final decision. This does not always go the way I would hope – some students need more guidance than "Pick a song you love!" to make a good song choice. After spending the last six months working on correcting a vocal fault, I want my student to show all she/he has learned to best advantage. My student wants to sing a "cool" song she just heard on the latest Ed Sheeran album – but it is completely wrong for the performance setting.
Make a point to do some listening: Listening assignments should be a regular part of lessons, but I often ramp up the listening assignments going into recital season. If a student listens to teacher-approved songs in the run up to making his/her song selection, he or she has a better idea of what constitutes a good song. Talk about why you chose to assign the specific piece and communicate the impact the piece has on you personally as an audience member. Complex melodies, exciting rhythms, carefully executed phrasing, and contrasting dynamics make songs worth paying attention to. Take some time to do some comparisons between your listening assignments and the music your student usually enjoys.
Make sure you and your student's goals complement each other: First and foremost , a teacher should communicate specific, easily-explained goals for a student's recital performance. I've noticed that students often compartmentalize technique and performance separately – somehow all the hard work a student puts in adjusting tone-quality, breath support, and stage presence during lesson time isn't a major priority when actually performing. Remind a student that this performance is about showing vocal progress and reinforcing the hard-won skills they've been developing. Additionally, invite the student to identify some personal goals for their performance – reviewing previous recital performances can give a student a lot of food-for-thought when determining what matters most in a song.
Give specific criteria: When beginning the song selection process, I ask students to come in with a list of at least three song ideas for recital. This gives the student a chance to express his/her opinion and be part of the process, which helps him/her invest emotionally in the piece. Adding some song guidelines will help narrow down the selection: the song must have appropriate, family friendly content; the sheet music must be available legally for accompaniment purposes; and the student should be able to sing the song using good vocal technique.
Encourage students to challenge themselves. If a student is putting effort into learning how to sing, it is counterintuitive to choose a recital song that doesn't stretch them in some area or another. Try a new style of music, a more dramatic interpretation, or a different language. Recital is an opportunity to experiment with something new in front of an audience that is prepared to be friendly and supportive. Fostering an environment that encourages musical exploration leads to more interesting recital selections and audience enjoyment.

The Latest: Gold medalist Zverev wins quick opening match
Published: August 31, 2021, 10:21 AM Updated: August 31, 2021, 1:10 PM

NEW YORK – The Latest on the U.S. Open tennis tournament (all times local):
Alexander Zverev opened his bid for a second straight U.S. Open final appearance with a win in his opening match.
Zverev needed only 1 hour, 40 minutes to beat Sam Querrey 6-4, 7-5, 6-2.
Zverev won the first two sets last year in the final against Dominic Thiem before losing the match. It was Zverev's first Slam final.
Zverev won the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics and is one of three players with four titles this season.
He's won 12 straight matches.
The German knocked off top-ranked Novak Djokovic in the semifinals of the Tokyo Games. Djokovic is trying to become the first man since 1969 to win a calendar-year Grand Slam. He plays Tuesday night.
Karolina Pliskova and Reilly Opelka were among the early winners on the second day of the U.S. Open.
Pliskova, a 2016 finalist, beat Caty McNally 6-3, 6-4 in her first-round match as the former world No. 1 tries continues her rebound from several lean years on the tour. Pliskova lost the Wimbledon final this year and fell to 0-2 in major finals.
Reilly Opelka, one of 15 Americans playing in bottom half of the draw on Tuesday, defeated Soonwoo Kown 7-6 (7), 6-4, 6-4.
Mackenzie McDonald, another American, beat David Goffin 6-2, 7-5, 6-3. McDonald needed surgery for a torn hamstring tendon a little more than two years ago and couldn't walk for weeks. He lost the Citi Open final in August in Washington.
The second day of the U.S. Open is underway and the No. 1 seeds in both draws are set to compete.
Novak Djokovic opens his bid to become the first man since 1969 to win a calendar-year Grand Slam when he plays 18-year-old qualifier Holger Vitus Nodskov Rune of Denmark in the first match of the night session in Arthur Ashe Stadium. Djokovic would break a tie with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal for most major titles among men if he wins the tournament. They all have 20.
Djokovic is 15-0 in the first round at the U.S. Open and has won eight of the last 12 Grand Slam tournaments.
Women's No. 1 seed Ash Barty faces Vera Zvonareva, the 2010 U.S. Open runner-up, on Ashe in an afternoon match.
Andy Murray was still hot a day after he lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas in the opening round. Murray said after the match that he "lost respect" for Tsitsipas for pushing the boundaries when it comes to taking breaks during a match. Murray tweeted on Tuesday that it takes Tsitsipas "twice as long to go the bathroom as it takes Jeff (Bezos) to fly into space."

Politics - bush ( officially) dictator since aprill 2006

Now excuse the relation but it's actually exactly the same thing that Adolf Hitler did 60 Years Ago he released the power from the executive board to declare Martial Law in Germany and knowing that Grandpa Bush ( Jeb Bush did finance hitler thorugh Bank of America and was exposed by hoover ) was pro nazi that Article really gave me the creeps, well i'm lucky i ain't American But still it's really frightening .
What are your opinion ?

He's not Hitler 2.0, he's just a idiot that is incapable of understanding how the American system works. We've all seen his type before, thinks he's saving the world and doesn't need to bother with that crap. But he'll be gone soon. If he stays on, he'll need to enact Martial lawlaw and the UN will probally be forced to send in peace keepers. The resulting mess that would cause would destroy the American economy and remove its status as a major global power.
And for the record, Bush is *nothing* like Hitler or the Nazi's, and the only reason he rose to power was due to the crippling effect of reparations they were forced to pay after WW1. Bush rose to power because the Americans are incapable of running an election.

If he does There will also be a major 'uprising' and that's the reason I have access to a few weapons I'd be happy to join the 'uprising'
Exactly, and since America has a large amount of WMD's in the event of an uprising other nations would need to secure these weapons to prevent them being used on either the American population or other nations.
Geroge Bush is an Idiot with a Weapon System that can destroy the world twice.

But to be totally honest the candidates for your current election seem to be just as insane, i fear that bush may have lead America down a road that it won't be able to return from without a great deal of sacrifice. Just as Blair has done for the UK.
Location:/na/usa/ca
I hail from the USA and think that Bush has messed up. But, I also think that you need to support the president, even if he is an idiot. If people just totally give up, nothing will ever be done. VaKo: I agree, most of the candidates now are insane. The only person I even vaguely think might not turn the US into Soviet Russia is Fred Thompson.
bull shit.... You only need to support the people who are doing what's right. If anyone in the government screws up they need to be held for it! Blind faith is stupid, he bush started killing people to keep his friends out of trouble would you still support him?
I can see a need to support the office the president holds, but blind faith in the person who holds that role is suicidal.

Shades of the South: Film
People often write the South off as a cultureless wasteland, filled with backwoods, folksy nobodies, living life in a world gone by. Those of us who live here, however, know that this judgment isn't entirely accurate; the South isn't an irrelevant relic, but a place where the culture of the Old South mingles with modern society and contemporary issues. In fact, some of the greatest works of art in the last 30 years have been inspired by or set in the American South. The result in literature and film is often blood-soaked poetry, where characters must survive in a land filled with breathtaking vistas and the eccentric individuals that the Southern culture of honor breathes life into. Some of these works of art have contemporary settings, while others take place a hundred years ago or more; however, the setting is less important than the work having the feel of the South.

The Definitive List of "J" Named Heroes
Con Air might just be a perfect movie. There is a scene where Cameron Poe, the story's hero, played by Nicolas Cage, finds himself in a vulnerable standoff with U.S. Marshal, Vince Larkin, played by the nervously captivating John Cusack. Within this standoff, Poe utters the following line: "There's only two men I trust. One of them's me. The other's not you." Poe's line shows a hero's undying skepticism of all outside threats. Over the course of the movie, the two's relationship turns from agent hunting convict to friend trying to understand friend. Poe, a free man at this point, refuses to simply walk away from an unfinished job, and instead chooses to fulfill his heroic duty. In the end sequence, Poe graciously gifts his daughter with a stuffed teddy bear, and as she shyly takes her father's gift, she takes our hearts as well. This hero won, as most heroes do, so yeah, Con Air is definitely a perfect movie.
Like the lesson Con Air teaches, a hero can't simply be a novice desk agent out in the field for the first time. A hero must come from a not so friendly background, filled with misfortune and fate's unfortunate influence. A hero is an outcast in some form or fashion. A hero doesn't just fight, he or she fights well, like 'Apollo Creed walkout music worthy' well. A hero can work for a government agency, but within that agency, the hero should be either disliked, excommunicated, and/or a habitual rule breaker. A hero must have a cool name, and more often than not, that name begins with the letter "J".
Below is a list of film's greatest "J" named heroes, beginning with the least deserving and finishing with the most worthy "J" named hero. The characteristics by which each hero will be ranked are as follows: background, abilities, and love life.

Typically, the summer's action-packed, star-studded movies tend to rely on box office totals as their standard of success while ignoring the critics' scathing reviews. Due to scripted superhero antics and star actors electing to join a sequel's ensemble cast, originality continues to decline within the film industry's largest and most influential production companies.

Singapore-developed cooling suit lowers body temperature in half the time: Study
A study by researchers from Singapore General Hospital, National University of Singapore and National Heart Centre Singapore found that the CarbonCool suit can cool a patient's body to 34 deg C in an average of 73 minutes, almost half the time of other methods.ST PHOTO: MARK CHEONG

A wearable cooling device that can help protect a patient's brain and other vital organs following a cardiac arrest has been developed by doctors from Singapore General Hospital (SGH) and an industry partner, Global Healthcare SG.
The CarbonCool suit, as it is called, consists of a wearable suit made of neoprene and thermoplastic polyurethane. It holds 20 cooling pads filled with a graphite water solution that is about 15 times more thermally conductive than ice.
At a press briefing yesterday, Professor Marcus Ong, a senior consultant and clinician scientist at SGH's Department of Emergency Medicine, said: "When a person's heart stops beating, there is no blood flow or oxygen supply to vital organs like the brain, liver and kidneys for a prolonged period of time.
"Research has shown that cooling the body to about 34 degrees is one of the best ways to preserve brain function after cardiac arrest."
The process, called targeted temperature management (TTM), would be initiated after a patient's heart has been restarted, for instance, by paramedics called to an emergency.
Prof Ong said that the faster the body can be cooled to the target temperature, the more likely it is that the patient will regain good brain function, or, in other words, be able to walk, talk and return to work after recovery.
A study by researchers from SGH, National University of Singapore and National Heart Centre Singapore found that the CarbonCool suit can cool a patient's body to 34 deg C in an average of 73 minutes, said SGH senior clinical research coordinator Nur Shahidah Ahmad, the study's main author.
Other methods, such as administering cold water, ice packs and chilled intravenous saline, took an average of 142 minutes, she said.
Prof Ong, a co-author of the study, said these methods have disadvantages - water and ice packs can be messy, and giving a patient too much intravenous fluid can cause other complications.
While other commercial cooling machines exist on the market, they are relatively expensive.

A machine that circulates coolant in a single-use wearable suit is used in the hospital's intensive care unit, but it costs about US$1,000 (S$1,350) per use, said Prof Ong. The machine is also bulky and cannot be used effectively in an ambulance.
In comparison, the CarbonCool suit can be packed into an insulated backpack, and costs just US$100 for each use, Prof Ong said.
The suit can be disinfected after use and the cooling pads can be removed and refrozen for repeated use, Ms Shahidah said.
She added that it does not have to be removed when a patient undergoes X-ray scans, computed tomography scans or magnetic resonance imaging.
The study tracked 124 patients seen at the hospital's emergency department between 2010 and 2017.
From 2010 to 2015, 84 patients were given TTM using ice packs and cold saline. The suit was then introduced and used on another 40 patients from 2015 to 2017.
Since 2015, the proportion of patients who regained good brain function after cardiac arrest has risen to 60 per cent from 20 per cent to 30 per cent previously, Prof Ong said.
The suit has other applications, such as treating heat stroke, and firefighters could also potentially use it to keep cool, he added.
The Straits Times understands that some Singapore Armed Forces ambulances currently use the suit to treat soldiers with heat injury.
The study team will present its findings at SGH's annual scientific meeting tomorrow.
The team is also looking into using a titanium-based compound for the next version of the suit, Prof Ong said.

Will delayed college football season lead to mass exodus of elite talent to NFL draft? 'Everyone is scared'
July 30, 2020, 3:48 PM ·7 min read
Before Wednesday afternoon, few outside of the ACC footprint and NFL draft circles could tell you much about Caleb Farley. The Virginia Tech corner earned All-ACC honors last season, and is considered by scouts to be a first-round NFL draft pick.
Continued stardom seemed imminent for Farley heading into this season, but he's suddenly become one of the buzziest players in the sport. Farley's Instagram announcement on Wednesday that he's opting out of the 2020 college football season for the NFL draft makes him a likely trendsetter in the college football space.
Farley's decision sent a shockwave through the college coaching ranks, especially with a majority of the conferences yet to solidify their attempted path forward this season.
"I think everyone is scared of the opt out right now," said a Power Five head coach. "The fact that we can present no clear answers to anyone. If you have no certainty, how many games [we are playing] and when there's practice. At least opting out provides clarity for them."
One industry source predicted to Yahoo Sports that 10 to 12 players could follow Farley's lead. Prominent quarterback tutor Quincy Avery said that number could be around 35 or 40. Guessing a number is difficult, of course, because the college football season is shaping up to be a moving target. But the longer it's pushed back, the more players are expected to follow.
"I know it's on a lot of players' minds right now," said an industry source. "I wouldn't be surprised if 12 of the 20 top picks don't play their season. That's a lot of good players not playing. It only takes one, and other people start to follow."

To be clear, there aren't many players of Farley's caliber in college football. He's considered an elite cover man and NFL scouts predict he'll be a first-round pick.
"We thought he was one of the most talented corners that we played, not just last year but in the last two or three years in the conference," said Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson. "He was exceptional. He has really good movement skill, really good ball skills. He was someone as we go back and watch the film, he really stuck out as one of the most outstanding defensive players in the ACC."
Will the other elite players follow?
The uniform expectation around the sport is that if the season gets pushed to the spring, there will be a relentless wave of players who declare for the NFL draft. Even if the draft process gets pushed back, the idea of playing a college season and then entering NFL OTAs a few weeks later makes for a potentially unhealthy workload.
As the season continues to shift, other top players are certain to follow Farley.
"I'd be shocked if Caleb Farley is the only guy," said Eric Winston, the former president of the NFLPA. "I think every guy that's going to be an NFL player has to make a business decision. They have to do what's right for them, whether that's playing in a bowl game or a season with questionable at best protocols at the college level. They have to do what's right for them and their family."
The uncertainty that's hovered over the sport for months has led to a sped-up agent process for many of the elite players in college football. It's not uncommon for high-end players to have agents picked out at this time, putting the process behind them before the season starts. (They formalize the relationship after the season.)
Playing in the spring is still regarded as a last resort, which means start dates creeping back and the overwhelming feeling of delays and cancellations could lead to more players leaving.
"I think we've always approached spring as the alternative to no football," Clawson said. "Not as the alternative to fall football. The desire of all of our coaches is to play football in the fall. Spring is only an alternative to no football, not to fall football."
Those NFL prospects who haven't fully engaged in the agent process — think third-year juniors who have flashed but not starred — are now getting inundated by agents and financial advisers.
"I have a guy who is getting hammered," said another Power Five coach. "He's getting it every which way, every day."
That same coach held a Zoom call with his team yesterday to address the idea of opting out for the draft. He wanted to illustrate to his players that many of the NFL players were making business decisions, as their contract gets pushed back a year. A player like the Patriots' Dont'a Hightower pushes his $8 million salary for 2020 back a year, essentially attempting to mitigate any risk that this season is canceled and he'd only get a prorated version of that salary if the season is cut short.
"I wanted them to know what's going on at the pro level and why guys are opting out," the coach said. "I wanted them to know that everyone is not opting out because of COVID."
Avery said that a line of demarcation for players could end up being the ability to play in the College Football Playoff.
"When kids find out they can't win a national championship, that's going to change the dynamic," Avery said.
How much would the product suffer if there's a wave of opt outs and the season starts? That's difficult to discern, but coaches are bracing for more announcements.
"Will it happen?" said another Power Five coach. "It's going to happen. There will be more than Caleb Farley. Will it wreck the game? Or is the product fans watch going to suffer? I don't think so."
NFL front offices are facing a season where they are expecting limited in-person scouting access. One NFL front office source said he doesn't think college players will be opting out of the season in near the same numbers as those in the NFL.
The NFL is also awaiting a draft process that appears destined to be fluid, as there's an expectation the league will be nimble with the combine and draft to best accommodate teams in getting the most accurate gauge of prospects.
Senior Bowl executive director Jim Nagy told Yahoo Sports he's open to having a Senior Bowl buildup that lasts up to two-and-a-half weeks if there's no college football this season. That would both help players acclimate to playing after extended time off and give the NFL personnel a bigger window to both evaluate the prospects as players and people.
The lack of campus visits would likely mean canned information given to scouts over Zoom, as opposed to more candid in-person conversations. Nagy said he's also considered going to the NFL and asking that all players who've declared for the draft — not just seniors or graduated juniors — be eligible for the Senior Bowl.
Nagy, a former NFL scout, was more conservative about the numbers of players who would opt out of the college season.
"There's only a small handful for guys who can rest on their junior tape," he said. It would be a small, small handful. The scary part for me is where are the kids getting the information, that's the hardest part of the whole process, getting credible information."

"Take but we are all necessarily physical. Even in
"Take care of your body, it's the only place you have to live." –Jim Rhon"The trouble with having a body is that people know it's where you hang out and you don't get any privacy."- Robert Brault Everyone has a body. We may be disabled, overweight, athletic, or short, but we are all necessarily physical. Even in the realm of the digital we still find it necessary to type and swipe in order to interact with the data that goes back and forth across our monitors. The body is often conceived of as the place where the mind and/or soul live. Though I can only briefly touch on the integration and existence of the essential components of what make up a person, it is clear that, rhetorically, one's own body is the location from which one necessarily must begin any discourse. It follows then, that as a location of rhetoric, the body must have an ethos that can be shifted and positioned via certain moves.Moves made by individuals in regard to their bodies are made with the intention of creating what I term a "credible body". The credible body is a piece of rhetoric that every person creates of themselves in order to show that they physically embody the values of a particular locale, be it a fictional, physical or social space. Traditionally, studies into the positioning of bodies in rhetoric have focused on the rhetoric created by individuals whose bodies do not fit the accepted norm. As a few examples, female, minority, disabled, and economically underprivileged persons must address their marginal position and make them into "incentives to see differently, to shift position, to make adjustments." (Reynolds, 1993, p. 332). However, rhetoric has been expanded since Aristotle's time to encompass more diverse values than those of well-to-do Athenian men. One could have an ethos of higher education, dive bars, or of state penitentiaries. With the plethora of ethical studies available and the near-infinite number of bodies that can be rhetorically positioned in an attempt to become credible in any of the numerous ethe it would be highly advantageous for anyone studying rhetoric or culture in terms of the body to have a general, theoretical, outline, that can be applied to both the empowered and the disenfranchised states of being. William Fortenbaugh (1992), in his analysis of Aristotle's work on rhetoric, presents a translation in which Aristotle states "For not as some writers on rhetoric posit in their treatises (saying) that the goodness of the speaker contributes nothing to persuasion; rather character has almost the greatest authority in winning belief" (p, 209, parentheses in original). Fortenbaugh immediately and helpfully paraphrases Aristotle by saying, "An audience believes a speaker who is respected and trusted." (p. 209). The traits that made a man worthy of trust and respect in Aristotle's time were virtue, goodwill, and wisdom (Fortenbaugh, p. 211). However, these three attributes do not form a universal ethos. Coretta Pittman (2007) points to a privileging of the classical model of ethos in Western culture, even though not all of the people within those cultures measure up well under those standards (pp. 44-45). The black women that Pittman brings forward as examples of those who turned negative ethos into positive do so by using autobiography and narrative in lieu of more traditional "argumentative prose" (Pittman, pp. 45-46).Though Pittman focuses on a particular group and their struggles to adapt to a dominant ethos, the ability, the necessity, to conform one's own or one's subject's character to a prevailing ethos is a commonality in all forms of discourse. Literary genre, selection or deletion of specific events, and the ways bodies are seen, used, and presented are all rhetorical moves that will bring rhetor and audience closer together or further apart. The effectiveness of using rhetorical moves to commend oneself to or separate oneself from the values of an audience's ethos, of course, depends on the degree to which the rhetor is competent in reading the values of the various ethe to which he or she is exposed. In communicating with others, and on some level this is always an attempt to convince others, it is necessary that we meet them in the place where they live; their ethos. The ethos of the body is one of those places where rhetors find themselves working to win credibility.An interesting case where we can see how a body is changed due to ethical context arises in the case of the zombie. The zombie body occupies a particularly good niche for study since it is both prevalent and deviant in the popular mind, as well as being easy to adapt on a large scale do to its (at least in its form as entertainment) fictional status. Since zombies are generally, with interesting variations, considered to be all or mostly physical one can avoid some of the complications brought along by the discussion surrounding the Cartesian split of body and mind, focusing on what is "purely physical". A recent article by Mike Mariani (2015) in the Atlantic looks at how the context of zombies changed from a body that represented the endless cycle of Haitian slavery to the means of bringing about a post-apoclyptic, utopyian, fantasy for modern watchers of television and film. According to Mariani, "the original brains-eating fiend was not a slave to the flesh of others but to his own" (2015). The brutal slave trade that sprang up around the sugar cane trade from 1625 to 1800 caused many slaves to turn to suicide (Mariani, 2015). However, slaves believed that if one committed suicide they would not be allowed to return in spirit to their homes and would instead be trapped inside their bodies as zombies; unable to offer even the smallest resistance or gain any freedom in death (Mariani, 2015).The appropriation of the zombie by American culture required that the zombie body be shifted to fit new ethe. With 1968's Night of the Living Dead (directed by George A. Romero) and the subsequent Dawn of the Dead in 1978 (also Romero) the zombie body that we know today was cast as not a reflection of the way in which our bodies are not our own, but as a commentary on consumer culture (Mariani, 2015). It is no longer a plantation owner who enslaves the body, but the hunger for more that can never be satisfied that is the driving purpose behind the zombie body. By making the impetus behind the zombie body hunger instead of the slave master directors like Romero made the zombie body one that could be inhabited by white Americans. Because oppression of the body was not a part of the prosperous American ethos, in order to become credible zombies, zombies needed to be driven by their hunger instead. Though zombies as they are portrayed in film and books are fictional, they make very real appeals to our own bodies only when they fit credibly into our ethos.M. Jimmie Killingsworth (2005) in Appeals in Modern Rhetoric discusses the body as a target for appeals. Though appeals to body are not wholly ethos, they do become more effective within a shared ethos. Huger driven zombies work in American culture because Americans are constantly asked to want and seek things, just as zombies are constantly hungry and seek brains. Thus, there is something in the zombie body that is the same in ours. They appeal to us based on that sameness. Killingsworth (2005) addresses the way in which advertisers tackle the challenge of a diverse viewing audience. "One thing the advertisers can count on is that all these people have bodies to care for and worry about. They have to eat and perform vital functions, and they are likely beset by sex drives and the attendant anxieties." (Killingsworth, p. 70, 2015). This appeal works, but perhaps in the opposite way that the zombies of Night of the Living Dead (Romero, 1968) do. We see or hear about credible bodies in advertising. These attractive people are like us. They suffer from headaches like us and wear clothes like us. If they can look as good as they do maybe we could to if we use Advil© or shop at L.L. Bean©. With the zombies we see that they, like we, are hungry for more; we wonder if that hunger that we identify with is really good.Both of these are appeals from bodies, the actor or the zombie, to bodies, the viewer. In order for the appeal to be effective, the latter bodies must look, to the former, like credible versions of themselves. A zombie who is a vegetarian is not credible if the audience is expecting something hungry for brains. In the same way, the model who does not quite manage to fit perfectly into his blazer also lacks a credible body. Creating a credible body requires a knowledge of the target set of values that fit into the audience's ethos. Since most of us are not zombies or models we do not have scripts, special effects, makeup, and airbrushes to help us fit in where we "belong" according to the ethos of the community we wish to enter into discourse with. It is necessary for most people to use social knowledge in order to present their "real" bodies as credible.The social scientist Marcel Mauss (1973) elaborated on the longstanding theory of habitus in a paper on what he called "body techniques". Habitus are those actions that in the simplest way go without thinking when you are in your native culture. They are learned to the point that they seem to operate almost on the level of instinct. For example, in the United States, it is generally accepted that one says "thank you" upon being given something. For the most part, we don't have a ready reason that those words should express gratitude, they are just the thing to say, even if we sometimes don't mean them. Presenting our bodies in a way that conforms to the local habitus allows us to fit into the ethos of that place. Mauss' (1973) "body techniques" are mechanics of the body that differ from culture to culture as part of the native habitus. He brings up the example of the different ways in which English and French soldiers dig; English soldiers being unable to use French spades and vice versa (p. 457). Thus there is a specific French way of digging. A French soldier who could not make his body carry out the motions required to use a French spade would not have as credible a French-solider-body as the man who can use the spade competently. There are also non-mechanical ways that one can change the ethos of the body; by changing one's appearance with clothes or cosmetics. If a woman wears too much makeup in American culture, she may be labeled as "tramp" or "slut", despite the fact that she may really just be inexperienced in the application of makeup. If a man pays too much attention to his general appearance he may be labeled as "metrosexual" or "gay". People take this feedback, correct or not, and adapt themselves so that their bodies fit the values of the community they desire to be a part of. These choices that are intended to lead to credible bodies can be as simple as deciding the color of a politician's tie or as complicated as surgery that leads to a sex change.By touching on a variety of situations, from Haitian slavery and the media zombie to the habitus of everyday actions and a few ways in which one can respond and adapt their body to fit certain ethe, I hope to develop a general theory of bodies working toward credibility. Much of the work that inspired this line of thought is similar to that of Coretta Pittman in that it looks at those who have worked to make marginal positions, including marginal bodies, into more credible stances in order to be heard. Broadening the search for a credible body to those in non-marginal positions as well as the margins opens up a host of new questions. I am aware that in this paper I have privileged sight as a method for judging a body's credibility, but what about the sound of the voice or the feel of skin? How are these physical attributes modified in order to obtain credible voices or skin texture? Ultimately, I hope to have shown that the body is not just someplace from which one must look out and determine the credibility of others, nor is it the place that we are trapped, forced under the scrutiny of others with no recourse available for repositioning. Like other rhetoric, the physical appearance and mechanical functions of bodies are constantly positioned and utilized to give an ethical advantage and credibility that leads to a more dynamic and effective discourse.

About Ireland Byways
ByRoute 8.1 Co. Kildare & Co. Laois
These pages link the Naas Road / Dual Carriageway / N7 / M7 Exit 9 (Maudlin's Interchange) near DUBLIN with Templetouhy & Moyne (Co. Tipperary) via:
Naas (Co. Kildare / East)
Naas (pronounced "Nace") (An Nás – "The Place of Assembly", also Nas Laighean – "The Gathering Place of the Leinstermen" / Nás na Riogh -"The Meeting Place of Kings") (pop.19,000), long established as a garrison / market town and administrative seat for County Kildare, has undergone massive expansion in recent years as a commuter satellite for DUBLIN, with significant immigration from abroad.
Main Street is famous for its 30 pubs, and there are several good restaurants in the vicinity.
A five-lock branch line of the Grand Canal enables boats to berth in the harbour near the C19th Market House and the modern town Library.
Naas History
According to Bardic lore, Naas was founded by Lewy of the Long Hand. It was the capital of the district anciently called Airthear Life, on the border between Ui Faolain / O'Byrne and the Ui Muiri / O'Toole tribelands.
The original Dún of Naas, destroyed by Tuathaill Teachtmhar in 134 AD, was rebuilt by Luighdech Eithlenn, king of Leinster, in 140 AD. It was burned down by Cormac Mac Airt in 277 AD to avenge the massacre of thirty "royal maidens" and their attendants by the Leinster chieftain Dunlang, only to be reërected once more by the legendary Princess Tailtinn.
In 705 AD Conall Cinn Maghair devastated Naas, carrying away hostages and tribute. After 800 AD Naas was frequently attacked by the Viking settlers of Dublin.
Cearbhall, the last Naas ruler to be recognised as king of Leinster, avenged the death of his father Muireghan by defeating the Norsemen at the Battle of Dublin in 880 AD, and played a prominent part in the defeat of the powerful king-archbishop of Cashel, Cormac Mac Cuileannain, at the Battle of Bealach Mughna in 903 AD. He was tragically killed the following year and buried locally. It did not take long for the Norsemen to turn it into an outpost of Dublin.
Naas was granted by Strongbow to Maurice FitzGerald, whose son William FitzMaurice FitzGerald was created Baron of Naas by King Henry II in 1177. Fortified by the Normans, the settlement was initially populated mainly by colonists from Pembrokeshire and dedicated to Saint David, Patron of Wales. It grew into a prosperous medieval town with Augustinian and Dominican monasteries.
Naas was plundered in 1316 by a Scottish army under Robert and Edward Bruce, and undoubtedly suffered greatly during the bitter winters of that era and the outbreaks of Bubonic Plague that scourged Ireland's medieval urban communities.
The town was granted its first charter by King Henry IV in 1409, with a Corporation comprising Portreeves, Burgesses and Commonality. In 1413 King Henry V granted the corporation power to collect tolls at all the entrances to the town, in order to build a defensive system of walls and gates.
Parliaments were held in Naas in 1419, 1457, 1471, 1472, 1473 and 1477. and it was probably here that that the decision was taken to insist that "every Irishman that dwells betwixt Englishmen in Dublin, Myeth, Ureill, and Kildare. shall go like one Englishman in apparel and showing of the beard above the mouth–and shall take to him an English Surname, or name of a town such as Sutton, Chester, or colour as White, Black, or Brown. art or science as Smith, Carter, or Carpenter. or trade or office as Butler, Cook, or Baker. and that his issue shall use this name , under pain of forfeiting of his goods yearly".
A new charter granted by Queen Elizabeth I in 1568, adding a Sovereign to the Corporation, together with further charters from King James I in 1609, King Charles I in 1628, and King Charles II in 1671, formed the basis of the town's government until 1840.
On St David's Day (3rd March) 1577, 140 men and boys led by Rory Ög O'More and Cormac MacCormack O'Connor ran through Naas like "haggs and furies of hell, with flakes of fire fastened on poles", and burned over 700 thatched houses.
In 1580 Lord Gormanstown garrisoned 500 men locally; they murdered a number of Spanish survivors of the Smerwick Massacre at a spot known as the Fod Spainneach.
Naas was occupied and plundered many times by various armies during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms. A local Dominican priest, Fr Peter Higgins, was executed in 1642 by the "cruel and bloody" Sir Charles Coote, Governor of Dublin.
During the 1798 Rebellion a group of around 1000 insurgents led by Michael Reynolds from Johnstown were repulsed with a loss of around 150 men by a force composed of the Armagh Militia and local yoemanry under the command of Lord Gosford.
Naas Infantry Barracks was opened in 1813, with accommodation for 18 officers and 300 ordinary soldiers, or double in time of war.
The Dún / North Motte currently visible behind the Town Hall is a Norse structure with Norman reinforcements. The C18th building on the summit was initially used as a guard room for the gaol, and later as a military lookout post and heliograph signal station.
The Fair Green is the site of the former South Motte, replaced by a military barracks that was attacked during the 1798 Rebellion and later replaced.
St David's Castle, aka King John's Castle, was erected on the orders of that monarch, who visited in 1206 and held an assembly here in 1210. The vaulted rooms of the original edifice still exist in the castle, which was partially rebuilt c.1415 to be incorporated into a new town wall structure. The dungeon is connected by an underground passage to the Dún / Motte. This was one of a line of castles and fortified Tower Houses forming the western outposts of the Pale. The remaining tower served for many years as the Church of Ireland rectory.
St. David's church (CoI), first mentioned in 1212, replaced the pre-Norman church of Saint Corban on a site where Saint Patrick once reputedly preached. The current building, erected in 1620, incorporates parts of the Norman church; a triple vaulted medieval crypt came to light during restoration work in 1989. The tower added by Lord Mayo in 1781 is incomplete, as a planned steeple was never constructed. The interior contains interesting memorials and a baptismal font of early Christian origin. (Photo – www.kildare.ie)
The old Town Hall, built in 1796 as a prison, was converted in 1854 and renovated fifty years later, incorporating an older adjoining building known as White's Castle (used as a gaol until 1833) and a Carnegie Library.
Naas Courthouse was designed by Richard Morrison in 1807 and extended in 1860 to include a four columned portico. The Criminal Court has been used in many films for its resemblance to London's Old Bailey.
The church of Our Lady and St. David (RC) was founded in 1828 and completed thirty years later with the addition of an impressive tower and steeple.
Naas Presbyterian church, designed by Duncan Ferguson, was built in 1867 on the site of the old town Tholsel. The foundation stone was laid by John La Touche of Harristown.
Kildare County Council's innovative office buildings at Devoy Quarters have won awards for architectural design.
Naas Mosque is a modern edifice on the grounds of Naas General Hospital.
Naas General Hospital, originally a C19th Workhouse for paupers, is now regarded as one of the most up to date medical facilities in Ireland.
The Lattin Almshouse, founded by William Latton and Anne Lutterell in 1590 in Poplar Square, moved several times before being rebuilt in its present position on the Dublin Road in 1919. Now run by the St. Vincent de Paul Society, it is believed to be the oldest charitable institution in Ireland.
Oldtown Estate was acquired in 1665 by a branch of the Bourke / de Burgh family later ennobled as Earls of Mayo. The splendid 1709 Palladian mansion built by Col. Thomas Bourke, Surveyor General of Ireland, was partially destroyed by fire in the mid-C20th, and the demesne, long an important stud farm, is now taken up by modern housing developments.
Bourke Mausoleum, Maudlin's Cemetery, Naas.
Naas has long been a centre of equestrian activity, known internationally both for its own Naas Racecourse (1924) and its convenient proximity to the famous Punchestown and Curragh tracks.
While Lawlor's Hotel (1913) is traditionally THE place to stay in Naas, there are many hotels and accommodation facilities in and around the town, ranging from luxurious to basic.
Naas is very near Sallins on ByRoute 9.
Jigginstown Manor
Jigginstown Manor / Castle, aka Sigginstown House, was designed by John Allen for Thomas Wentworth, 1st Earl ofStrafford, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland during the reign of King Charles I, with the idea that it could be used as a royal residence, but the monarch never visited Ireland.
There is still controversy today as to whether the building was ever really finished. This was one of the first edifices in Ireland to be constructed with red brick (imported from Holland).
Wentworth himself frequently stayed here before his return to England, where he was executed at the behest of Parliament before a huge crowd in May 1641. The property passed through his descendants to the FitzWilliam family, who donated it to the State in the 1960s.
Plans to restore the house and incorporate a museum have yet to achieve fruition; however, prelimiunary clearance work has revealed several interesting features, notably the remains of an elaborate formal sunken garden with a fishpool and a gazebo.

Welcome to Happy Duck Publishing!
We are actively seeking poetry, short stories, and art from active and veteran military members and/or their family for an anthology. Please, state in your query letter if you meet any of this criteria.
Do not submit your manuscript or story idea unless it is requested by one of our staff members. This is for your protection as well as ours.
We are currently receiving a high volume of submissions so please allow 5 to 10 business days for a response from one of our editors.
Even if Happy Duck Publishing chooses not to publish your manuscript, we will sometimes make referrals to other publishers we work with. If this happens we will notify you. It is our belief everyone has a story and deserves a chance to have it told!
TYPES OF BOOK PUBLISHED: Paperback, Ebook, and Audio Books.
CHILDREN'S BOOKS: For brief books for ages 5-8, Happy Duck Publishing requires a query letter describing the project briefly and concisely (see below), a separate list of the author's publishing credits, and a digital copy of the full manuscript. Digital copies of any accompanying artwork are welcome. Be advised that we have certain expectations in the length of a proposed manuscript. Children's books should not exceed 4,000 words.
ALL OTHER BOOKS: Happy Duck Publishing requires a query letter describing the project briefly and concisely (see below), a separate list of the author's publishing credits, a digital copy of the outline and one or two chapters, and a digital copy of the full manuscript. Proposed books for middle readers (ages 10 and up) should be at least 25,000 words. Adult books should be more than this. For poetry or similar works we require at least 50 pages.
QUERY LETTER AND OTHER SUBMISSION POLICIES: The book's title must be clearly stated at the top of the query letter. The letter needs to outline: the book's content, its anticipated length (in words), its intended audience, and any promotional ideas and contacts the author may have. If the author has previously been published by another firm, please specify why a change is being sought.
We will respond as promptly as possible, letting you know whether or not we feel the project is worth pursuing further. If we feel that it is worthy of consideration, we will request more information.
We look for clarity and conciseness of expression and presentation in a synopsis/outline and we ask to see those that will most likely yield proposals fitting our list and that we feel we can market successfully. A lot of manuscripts are turned down just because they have no clear "hooks" or well-defined audiences. The author should present a strong case as to why we should take on the book and who would buy it.
We DO NOT require that writers contacting us have a literary agent representing them!
A phone call to the editor or office or an in-person drop off of unrequested material does not automatically imply that a project has been solicited. For this and other obvious reasons, we discourage phone inquiries and in-person drop offs. If an author we have requested additional material from is uncertain as to what we're asking for, a phone call to clarify the matter is acceptable.
Solicited manuscripts are carefully scrutinized by the editor(s). On occasion, they may be examined by other parties to gauge their marketability. They are then passed on to the publisher for preliminary and final consideration. The submissions are reported on as soon as possible, but this process may take up to three months (12 weeks). If acceptance is recommended, the author(s) will be asked to sign a contract with Happy Duck Publishing.
If the three-month period for solicited manuscripts passes without the author being informed of a decision, a polite note of reminder from the author is not out of order. Phone calls on the status of manuscripts are very strongly discouraged. Never badger the editor for an instant decision or make demands or threats; this can only hurt the author's chances of acceptance. Authors who feel unsatisfied with our procedures or the amount of time being taken to reach a decision are free to request the manuscript's return at any time.
Happy Duck Publishing requires exclusive submission for all solicited manuscripts during the 12-week period mentioned above. This is for obvious reasons. We can only give full attention to those manuscripts which we are likely to be able to publish if accepted by us.
We also ask that authors who have solicited works under consideration please refrain from sending us other works or proposals during this time unless they are specifically requested to do so. Agreement on our part to look at a particular work does not imply blanket authorization to send unrelated materials and doing so could hurt, rather than help, an author. Materials related to the requested submission, such as favorable newspaper clippings, endorsements by qualified professionals in the field the author is writing about, or other amended data may be sent and added to the material already on file. Use careful judgment in selecting these items and be certain that they enhance the material and its chances of being accepted. Sending in later data that refutes or calls into question points made in the earlier submission may cast doubts on the whole project's veracity and damage its chances of acceptance. Always be certain to refer to the work's title, the author name under which it was submitted, and the date the original query was mailed.
Most material we request can be digitally received. If we ask for materials to be mailed to us we require all requested submissions, including outlines, resumes, sample chapters, etc., be neatly printed out on 8½ by 11 inch paper and double-spaced with sufficient margins (1 inch on all sides). Query letters are customarily single-spaced. Submissions with numerous misspellings, typographical errors, and handwritten corrections reflect unfavorably on the author and may contribute heavily toward a rejection. Writers are cautioned not to rely on editors to clean up after them or interpret unclear information, regardless of how good they think their material may be. A sloppy submission is often indicative of worse problems—the type editors and publishers prefer not to deal with.
Handwritten submissions and/or queries will not be considered.
We accept no responsibility for original and only-copies of material. We require that, if requested, all writers send us COPIES of their work and retain the originals at home. We will not be responsible for misplaced or lost material.
Comments and/or reviews from qualified professionals or publications, as stated earlier, can be desirable in many cases. Likewise for rejection letters from other publishing companies that acknowledge a project's potential value and which base their rejections on other factors unrelated to quality of author workmanship.
If an author seeking to publish an illustrated work plans to use artwork copyrighted by an author, illustrator, publication, or syndicate, permission must be obtained in writing from that source. Permission in writing must also be obtained by any author seeking to use quotes or other materials from previously copyrighted publications. We will not publish illustrations or portions of another copyrighted work without written authorization to do so.
Authors seeking to have previously published books reprinted must have, in writing from their previous publisher, a signed letter transferring all rights (including copyright) to them. This is required under the 1978 Copyright Law and must be adhered to in all such cases.
All terms are specified in the contract all authors publishing under our imprint(s) are required to sign. No book will be published by Happy Duck Publishing without a contract signed beforehand.
