What do you think we should do when other forums "attack" Mylot?
Yeah, I'm interested in this. What would you think we should do when some forums (not mylot) "attacks" or say some thing bad about mylot?
I'm usually one of the first people on those forums defending this site. Most of the people who attack it are pretty much just whining over something.
I know mylot is greatful to you. Which forums did you see bad comments about mylot? I know Y_ _ _ _! is one. (I guess everybody knows meaning).
As members of myLot we have the responsibility to defend this community. It is our job, friend.
I agree, though doing so would require us to register in their community. They don't allow visitors to respond. But if we would really want to defend mylot, why not!
It depends on what kind of attck other forums will make. As far as i know, as a member of this community, it is our duty to defend this community in any event of injurious criticism or such like.
Oh I think we should don our battle gear, take up our swords, leap astride our wild trusty steeds and race off to slay the enemy. Who cares? Members of one forum will always slag members of another forum off. If you let it get to you then I have to say you need to get out of the house more. You're spending too much time on the internet.

Q: Websockets won't start on live server - ssl error 303 Hey there I have a huge issue. I created a web socket system using the Ratchet framework for pho. It works perfectly fine on my local server but for some reason it won't work on my live server. My server is on digital ocean so I'm pretty familiar with the server. I use Apache also. But this is how my we sockets JavaScript code look right now for connecting:
if(typeof(WebSocket) == "function")
{
    var host = "wss://www.frindse.com:8181/?chathash=" + mainChatId;
    var conn = new WebSocket(host);

    conn.onopen = function(e) {
        console.log("Connection established!");

        // Send back the chat id
        conn.send(JSON.stringify({event: "supplyChatHash", data: mainChatId}));

        // Add this new user to the connection
        conn.send(JSON.stringify({event: "connectNewUserToChat", data: {userId: logged, connectedTo: mainChatId}}));
    };

    conn.onclose = function(e) {
        alert('Disconnected');
    };
}

And here is the code for starting the server:
$server = IoServer::factory(
    new HttpServer(
        new WsServer(
            new ChatServerBackend($_GET['chathash'])
        )
    ),
    8181
);

For some reason my we sockets server won't start on my live site. Does it have to do with a port? Or anything else?

The Ashland University track and field program is anticipating another dominating indoor season, as both the men's and women's teams are nationally-ranked.
The second-ranked men and fourth-ranked women both opened up their season at the Kent State Golden Flash Gala last weekend (Dec. 5), and did nothing less than impress.
In the opening-weekend meet, the Eagles had 16 performances meet provisional qualification, and three athletes clinched automatic bids for the NCAA indoor championships beginning on March 13th in Birmingham, Ala.
"It was a good meet for us, having 19 marks go on the NCAA performance list, and to get three automatic qualifiers just shows we're at where we should be at early on in the season." said AU head coach Jud Logan.
The Eagles' three automatic qualifiers were junior Jamie Sindelar in the shot put, senior Jennifer Foster in the high jump and senior Jared Conklin in the weight throw. These three athletes all had qualifying performances that have sealed their ticket to the NCAA championships in March.
Sindelar threw 51-feet-7¾ in the women's shot put, which was a foot longer than the automatic marker of 50-feet-4 1/3. Foster just needed to clear 5-feet-10½ in the women's high jump, and she managed to match exactly that. Conklin clinched a spot in the men's weight throw with a 70-feet-3 mark. That breezed by the auto marker set at 68-feet-10.
The Eagles will return to competition on Jan. 16th in the Northwest Ohio Invite at the University of Findlay.


Due to changing customer demands and new technologies, manufacturing companies have to adapt their production program. A multitude of engineering changes in manufacturing systems must be performed to adapt existing factories to these developments. The coordination of several engineering changes in manufacturing systems is a key factor for the efficiency of the planning and execution. With an optimal planning duplication of work is avoided and synergy effects are achieved in parallel projects.
The starting point is the generation of representative production scenarios. Based on defined engineering changes, interactions and dependencies between parallel engineering changes are identified. Prioritization, time scheduling and control of multiple, parallel engineering changes need to be considered. First, Prioritization classifies the engineering changes with regard to their relevance and urgency. Then, the changes can be combined strategically according to the effect on the manufacturing systems. For time scheduling the available resources are forecasted first. Following the resource load is identified and potential bottlenecks are captured. For the control of engineering changes, rules are defined by using event-driven process chains (EPC). EPC initiate an adaption in the planning if an intervention is required due to the occurrence of unplanned events. The developed method is then implemented in a software demonstrator. This serves to validate the method based on a typical industrial use case.
The advantages of a joint planning and implementation of several engineering changes are, on the one hand, the time advantage due to parallelization. On the other hand, cost advantages arise because work steps are coordinated and double work is avoided. The more complex planning and controlling of multiple engineering changes can be handled by this method for the planning and controlling engineering changes.

Q: Android: how do I launch DatePickerDialog with onFocusChangeListener? I have an EditText line on a user input form.  A click on the EditText to launch a DatePickerDialog is working fine using a setOnTouchListener.  The setonFocusChangeListener I set up to handle an OnFocusChange onto the EditText is not working.  What am I missing here?
(Not sure if this helps but in an earlier version I used a DatePickerFragment and the onFocusChange works fine...so maybe the issue is using a DatePickerDialog rather than a Fragment?  The two lines I used to launch the Fragment with the onFocusChange() were:
DatePickerFragment newFragment = new DatePickerFragment(); // and
newFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "datePicker");)

Activity.java
public class Activity extends AppCompatActivity implements OnFocusChangeListener {
    ...
    private DatePickerDialog zDatePickerDialog
    private int mYear;
    private int mMonth;
    private int mDay;

    Override
    protected void onCreate(final Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        zListenerEditText = (ListenerEditText) findViewById(id.ZEditText);

        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
        mYear = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
        mMonth = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
        mDay = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
        mDatePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(this,this,mYear,mMonth,mDay);

        // This is working fine to handle the a click to launch the DatePickerDialog
        zListenerEditText.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                // launch the DatePickerDialog.
                mDatePickerDialog.show();
                return true;
            }
        });

        // This does not work to launch the DatePickerDialog
        zListenerEditText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
            if (hasFocus ) {
                // launch the DatePickerDialog.
                mDatePickerDialog.show();
        ...
        });
    }
}

activity.xml
    ...
    <com.widget.ListenerEditText
        android:id="@+id/ZEditText"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="none"
        android:textColor="#FFFFFF"  />

Edit 1 in Activity file:
...
@Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
    switch (v.getId()) {
        case id.CEditText:
            Toast.makeText(this,"C",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            // Handle onFocusChange for editText1
            break;
        case id.DEditText:
            Toast.makeText(this,"D",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            // Handle onFocusChange for editText2
            break;
        case id.EEditText:
            Toast.makeText(this,"E",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            // Handle onFocusChange for editText3
            break;
        case id.FEditText:
            Toast.makeText(this,"F",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            // Handle onFocusChange for editText4
            break;
        case id.GEditText:
            Toast.makeText(this,"G",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            // Handle default scenario.
            break;
    }
}

A: Remove OnFocusChangeListener from here public class Activity extends AppCompatActivity implements OnFocusChangeListener
keep it like this
public class Activity extends AppCompatActivity {
zListenerEditText = (ListenerEditText) findViewById(id.ZEditText);

        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
        mYear = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
        mMonth = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
        mDay = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
        mDatePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(this,this,mYear,mMonth,mDay);

        // This is working fine to handle the a click to launch the DatePickerDialog

        // This does not work to launch the DatePickerDialog
        zListenerEditText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
            if (hasFocus ) {
                // launch the DatePickerDialog.
                mDatePickerDialog.show();
        ...
        });
}

A: This happens because your onFocusChange event is never gets fired as it's been consumed by your onTouch event as you are returning true. You can't have both the events. If you just want to show a dialog on focus then I think listening for onFocusChange only will do the job.
EDIT: 1
How could I miss that? As @mrinmoy mentioned you should remove implements onFocusChange from public class Activity extends AppCompatActivity implements OnFocusChangeListener.
The problem is that you are listening for focus change twice. When you implements OnFocusChangeListener all your focus change related to entire activity are listened inside your global onFocusChange() method on your activity that you've overridden. So in this case your onFocusChange that you've set on your edittext will never gets called.
So if you want to handle focusChange for multiple edittext then implements onFocusChange is good, otherwise setting it on individual edittext is better.
In case if you want to handle onFocusChange on multiple editexts then here is the sample.
remove onFocusChange listeners from individual editexts.
handle your global onFocusChange() method like below.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements View.OnFocusChangeListener{
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        ....
    }

    @Override
    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
        switch (v.getId()) {
            case R.id.editText1:
                // Handle onFocusChange for editText1
                break;
            case R.id.editText2:
                // Handle onFocusChange for editText2
                break;
            case R.id.editText3:
                // Handle onFocusChange for editText3
                break;
            case R.id.editText4:
                // Handle onFocusChange for editText4
                break;
            default:
                // Handle default scenario.
                break;
        }
    }
}

A: Try this one, it is working for me
 inputDOB.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onFocusChange(View view, boolean b) {
            if (b) {
                 datePicker();
            }
        }
    });

and the datePicker method is
 public void datePicker() {
    final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
    mYear = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    mMonth = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    mDay = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
        datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(this,
            new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
                @Override
                public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year,
                                      int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
                    inputDOB.setText(formatDate(year,monthOfYear+1,dayOfMonth));
                     datePickerDialog.dismiss();
                    hideSoftKeyboard(SignUpActivity.this);
                }
            }, mYear, mMonth, mDay);
    datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(System.currentTimeMillis());
    datePickerDialog.show();
}

[Isparta]
Isparta is located on the Lake District, at the junction point of Aegean, Mediterranean and Central Anatolia regions. It is the only city in the world which has the most lakes and pond within its borders. The city is known for its rich cultural properties dating back to prehistoric times, in addition to its natural beauties such as Egirdir, Kovada and Golcuk Lakes. Surrounded by large rose fields, the city is taking giant steps to become a significant tourism center for its Kovada and Kizildagi National Parks, Davraz Mountain Ski Center, canyons and caves favorable for alternative nature sports. Moreover, provincial city, Yalvac and Egirdir districts are important in terms of belief tourism.
Adorned with colorful flowers in spring, it is suggested that the city's name was Baris or Sporda in Antiquity. It was mentioned as Saparta in Arabian Sources of XIV century. Having been settled for all ages, the Lake District named as Pisidia. The name Pisidia was first encountered at the end of 5th B.C. in historical resources. The borders of region changed at different times in history and had been settled by Pisidians who spoke their own language Pisid. In Pisidia region, Colony cities, a symbol of Rome sovereignty, were established during Emperor Augustus time. These cities are; Antiocheia (Yalvac), Kremna (Camlik), Konana (Urkutlu), Olbasa (Belenli), Parlais (Barla).
The archeological studies done in Isparta district have proved that the region has been an important site since prehistoric times. One of grottos near Senirce and Bozanonu, Kapaliin has been determined to have Upper Paleolithic (BC 35.000- 10.000)cultural features, and Baladiz and Igdecik Hills have been found out to carry cultural features of Mesolithic age(BC 10.000- 8.000). It has been considered to be an important place in Neolithic, Laccolithic and Bronze Age. Although the Pisidia land has been claimed to be Arzava region in Hittite period, it is also claimed that these lands had never been dominated thoroughly by Hittite. Nevertheless, it has never been found whether Pisidia region was dominated by Phrygia, west of Psidia, and no archeological data concerning Lydia rule. However some traces were discovered, resembling those three civilizations mentioned above. Persians dominated Anatolia from BC 547 to BC 334 and Pisidia region also began to be dominated by Persians in that period
Later, bound to Byzantine Empire, Isparta became a state according to an administrative distinction in VIII and IX centuries, and carried the features of a religious center. Anatolian Seljuks began to rule the city in 1204, conquered by Sultan Kilic Arslan the Third. Through capturing whole of the city, Sultan Alaeddin Keykubad (1219- 1237) captured the whole Antalya district and completed the conquest of the region. In early XIII century, the Turkmen people of Teke Tribe, who were settled by Seljuks in Isparta, Egridir and Yalvac districts, established Hamidogullari emirate in this area just before the collapse of Anatolian Seljuks State (1301). Then, Karamanogullari emirate got whole land of Hamidogullari. Yildirim Bayezid recaptured this land in 1390. So, dominated by Karamangullari at a short period of time, Isparta district began to be ruled by Ottomans thoroughly. And later it was changed hands between Karamanoglu and Osmanli Rules.
Completely under rule of Ottomans in 1423 and called as Hamid Sanjak in records, Isparta was an important textile (weaving) center. The adragan glue resin, obtained from the forests of the district, was a product in demand in European markets. In the late years of Ottoman Empire, Isparta became well-known for it's attar of roses, rug business and opium poppy production.
Anatolia, where the traces of various cultures have reached today in layers since Paleolithic period, is a unique historical museum. Isparta is also one of the important cities of Anatolia historically. One of these settlements is Kapikaya Ruins and they are 5 km away from Guneyce Village. Dated to Hellenistic period, the city's name was not identified completely. It was situated on a sloppy field and surrounded by walls on the South. A building, estimated to be a temple, an agora, a chapel and sarcophaguses are among the ones remaining today. A grotto, which can be reached by antique steps on the southwest of the city, is considered to be a sacred place. Near Golbasi Village, Incirlikaya Vaults are the graves that were made by carving out rocks under floor space.
There are a number of historical artifacts belonging to Anatolian Seljuks, Principalities and Ottoman Empire times in Isparta and its districts. Most of the mosques in the Centrum remained from Ottoman Empire period. The oldest one of these is Kutlubey (Ulu-Great) Mosque (1429). The mosque was reconstructed at the time of Sultan Abdulhamid the Second. It was completed in 1904 and when it collapsed as a result of the earthquake in 1914, the current mosque was built. Planned in rectangular shape, it has a central dome.
Kucuk Gokceli Kirik Minare Mosque; Supposed to be built in XIII century at the time of Anatolian Seljuks, the first mosque had collapsed and today a small mosque has been constructed in its place. Its minaret, made of bricks, is old and displays characteristics of Anatolian Seljuks Architecture. Built at the time of Hamidogullari emirate, Hizirbey Mosque (1325) have been restored a few times. And, Haci Abdi Mosque (Iplik Pazari Mosque) (1562-1565) is an Ottoman work.
Another mosque made in Ottoman period is Firdevs Pasha Mosque (Mimar Sinan Mosque), a work of Sinan the Architect. It was built in 1561 by Firdevs Pasha, the governor of Isparta, at the time of Sultan Suleiman the Lawful. Made of neat hewn stones, the mosque is square-shaped and has a single dome. It also has a vaulted and five-open-space last congregation place. In order to meet the Mosque's expenses, a Covered Market was also built by Firdevs Pasha. In the style of Sinan the Architect, the building was made of neat hewn stones and has two gates from two directions.
Abdi Pasha Mosque (Kavakli Mosque- Peygamber Mosque) is a work from the late period of Ottoman Empire. Having a square-shaped plan and a wood ceiling, the Mosque was built in 1782-1783 and has been restored many times. Decorations put up by Kutahya tiles in the building and at the frontage draw attention.
In the city center, the churches have been dated to 18th and19th centuries. Aya Baniya (Aya Payana) Church is dated to 1750's. It is a basilica with recatangular shape and three naves.

Districts of Isparta
The ancient name of Aksu, through which Aksu stream passes, is Anamas and this name was derived from Anamas Mountain near the district. The history of Aksu can be dated back to Hellenistic Age, 2nd and 1st centuries BC. Tynada, close to Terziler Village, and Senitli Plateau 15 away from Aksu are the oldest settlement areas of the district. It is significant to find Pisidia gravestones in Senitli.
Timbriada and Eurymedon Sacred Area takes place on the North of Mirahor neighborhood, at the skirts of Asar Hill. Eurymedon was a small town located near Koprucay springs. In Tymbriada town, an open-air temple dedicated to Eurymedon God, and a bridge dating to Roman period exist. Zindan (Rome) Bridge thrown across Koprucay (Eurymedon) stream, is a single-arched circular bridge made of block stones. There is a bearded bust of Eurymedon God on the keystone. Behind the temple, Zindan Cave, which had been used since Roman Period, is 760 m long and it contributes to cave tourism in Isparta.
Koprucay Canyon is also among the most significant values of Aksu district for its magnificent scenery and stream.
What made Atabey district so popular is Gazi Ertokus Madrasah. Moreover, historical structure of the district can be dated back to prehistoric times. Gondurle 1 Tumulus Graveyard near Harmanoren (Gondurle) Village is the first graveyard, found within Isparta province, belonging to Bronze Age and the findings obtained from here shed light on the culture of early Bronze Age. Seleukeia Sidera antique city takes place near Bayat Village, south of Atabey. The city was established by Syrian King Seleukos 1st (312-280 BC) or his son Antiokhos (280-261 BC). The name of the city was changed into Claudia Seleukeia by Roman Emperor Claudius (41-54 BC). In 7th BC, Hierokles attached Sidera to the city's name in order not to be confused with other Seleukeias in Pisidia. The acropolis of the antique city was surrounded by walls, and north of it there is theatre leaning back to the slope. There is also a graveyard including tombs and mausoleums in addition to a temple, a cistern and a structure with a floor furnished with mosaics, dated to Hellenistic Age.
The oldest Ottoman artifact in the district is Atabey Sinan Mosque (Kursunlu Mosque). This single-dome mosque was built in 1591 by Sinan the Architect. And, Feyzullah Pasha Mosque was built between the years of 1645 and 1648.
Atabey Gazi Ertokus Madrasah was constructed in 1224, in Anatolian Seljuks period, by Mubarizeddin Ertokus. The stones used in construction were brought from Agrai (Atabey) and Seleukeia Sidera (Bayat) ruins. Designed as a closed madrasah, the building is composed of madrasah rooms, a tomb, and an inner court and forecourt. In the inner court, there is a dome with a lantern, which has an opening for light in the middle, and a pool just below it. Having a simple entrance, the madrasah's stone niche, indicating Mecca, is significant. Mubarizeddin Ertokus Tomb, west of the Madrasah, has an octagonal plan. The sarcophagus in the tomb is covered with blue tiles.
EGIRDIR
The district includes many lakes, national parks and nature protection areas within its borders. The fourth largest fresh water lake of Turkey, Egirdir Lake has not been polluted yet. It is surrounded by mountains and that feature makes it very attractive. Egirdir, tourism center of Isparta, is a paradise of alternative tourism for these features. Mountain climbing, trekking, windsurfing, paragliding and camping are among the types of tourism. The features of Egirdir are not limited to those only, but also it has some historical assets waiting to be discovered. Malos ancient city was situated on a hill, near Goynucek Gedigi locale of Sariidris town, and its acropolis was enclosed by walls belonging to Hellenistic and Roman periods. One of the wall towers is still in good condition. Except for these, there exist a cave on Kaserenler Hill, 1 km away from the city, and a temple in front of it. On the east side of the hill, there is a meeting place carved in rocks. In Parlais antique city in Barla Town of Egirdir, the coins of 1st century BC were found. It is stated in the resources that the city was incorporated into Galatia state in 25 BC by the Emperor Augustus and that Roman Empire period began in the city after Marcus Aurelius.
There is not much information about the history of Prostanna antique city which was established at the skirts of Egirdir Peak in Egirdir District.

It is the greatest of all mosques in Egirdir. Its minaret is on the gate of Egirdir Castle. It is an original example with that feature.

The gate of this double-storied madrasah attracts attention for it's decorations. The original madrasah place has 11 rooms, an open court and a fountain (shadirvan) in the middle part.
Egirdir Inn is located in Yeni Neighborhood and bearing date of 1237. Covering a fairly large space, both the courtyard and original place of the structure were ruined, and there are groundwork traces of a few traveler rooms in the courtyard.

Egirdir district takes place in Yesilada. The building has three naves and was planned like a basilica. The other structure is Aya Georgias Church in Barla Town. Rectangular in shape, the building is in a destructed state.
After wandering around its historical beauties, if you would like to view Lake Egirdir and eat something, we suggest you to prefer trout, a local food, in the restaurants near the Lake. You can buy loom products in Egirdir Island which can be reached by wood boats. You may arrive at Kovada Lake National Park, 30 km South of Lake Egirdir.

Damien loves to count and identify shapes and colors. The Crew offered us an opportunity to review TouchMath's Homeschool program, and we were very exited to say yes and give Damien some new "big kid schoolwork."
We received the Pre-K curriculum package, along with several of Touchmath's Manipulatives. While the Workmats and Teacher's Manual were something I needed to download and print, the manipulatives arrived via UPS late on a Friday afternoon. Damien was so excited to open the box; he kept asking "Package Man has schoolwork for me?"
He was so disappointed that I made him put everything back in the box until Monday - I needed the weekend to print the workmats out.
I don't necessarily believe that two-year-olds need a formal curriculum, but I have been looking for ready-to-use yet educational activities for Damien. As I read through the program's website and then the program itself, this definitely had potential to suit our family - the program is very well organized and very nearly "scripted." It provides a little "big kid" work to make Damien happy, without a lot of "prep work" for Mom.
The core of the program is its modular workmat system. The Pre-K program contains six units that align themselves with preparing for the Kindergarten "Common Core" curriculum. I know there are many opinions on the common core concept, but I think that this is a good feature of the program. When Damien completes the program, he will be well prepared for kindergarten level work. If you are a homeschooler who has no plans of ever entering a traditional school system, this may not matter. However, since we are not certain that we are going to be "forever" homeschoolers, I really like that he will be prepared for a "regular" kindergarten.
TouchMath's expectation is that the child will be able to work for a period in minutes up to two and a half times his age. The materials are also geared to a preschooler's abilities, and are not just "big kid work repackaged and marketed to a new audience." This meant the expectations for 2 year old Damien were very low - up to five minutes per day - and he would be able to complete an entire task in that time. This time expectation was right about on target with what he was willing to do. The work on the mats is well-sectioned to accommodate a short attention span - while we may have not completed an entire page in one day, we were able to complete one full task in that time. It also means we have progressed very slowly - after a month, we are only nearing the end of the first section on counting. However, I am not disappointed in Damien's progress, because it is well within the program's expectations. The Pre-K program is recommended for ages three to five. Our experience is that an older 2-year-old can also do well with it, as long as you remember to keep his age in mind. Since Damien is not quite three yet, we will just work slowly at his pace through the modules - this is definitely a program that I can see us using through next year. I like that the activities are very nearly scripted, so the only prep for me is to pull out the Workmat and shapes. At a few minutes each day, it is enough activity for him to feel like a big kid, but not so much to be an excess of work for Mom and not worth the effort for only a few minutes of activity.
Because the program itself is a downloaded instead of a print book, the cost is kept to $59.95 for the program. Downloading the program and viewing on the computer was very simple. My one complaint is that it can be tricky to print and bind. The curriculum downloads as a single file. At one point, my printer ran out of paper (the entire program is over 200 pages!) and I didn't get back to it before the warning timed out. In order to continue printing, I had to figure out where I was, and the page number of the the workmats/instructions does not line up to the document's page number. While I also now have five extra workmats already printed and waiting, it's five more packets of paper to try not to lose. It is not something that would keep me from recommending the program, but I wish there was a more flexible way of printing the packets. In addition, the teacher's manual is interspersed with the student workmats. After printing, I divided the paper pile into individual units, and started to bind them. I didn't realize until I had three units bound together that Damien's work now had my sections bound with his. It was not difficult to fix, but it was frustrating. It probably could have been avoided if I was more attentive to the pages and not focused on dividing it off into units so we could get started, but I am including what happened as a "learn from our blunders" tidbit.
When we finally dove in, Damien was so excited. The first module is focused on counting -- one of Damien's favorite activities. In the first section, the child learns the concept of one-to-one counting. At the end of the unit, the child will be able to understand "how many" one or three or ten is rather than just repeating/reciting numbers. We started with a workmat to learn "one." The mat had multiple kinds of fruit, with one of each type. The hard part was actually stopping at ONE piece of fruit-- he wanted to count and color them all!
For this program, manipulatives are not completely necessary to use the Workmats properly. For an older child with better pencil/crayon skills, the program will work without them. However, the manipulatives do really increase the learning potential, as using another sense (touch) really helps reinforce concepts. The program suggests things like coins or candies (a pet peeve of mine due to allergies) if you do not have/wish to purchase the TouchMath ones, but I really do like the company's offerings. We received several products in our box from the Package Man. We have mostly used the TouchShapes ($30.) with the Unit 1 workmats, but we also received the 3-D Numerals ($79.) and Texture Cards ($99.). We haven't had as much opportunity to use the latter two, since we are working for so short a period of time daily, but I am looking forward to using them as we get further into the program. We have used the TouchShapes almost daily.
Here Damien is using them to sort groups of three. We used two different shapes - the circles as counters for the baby chicks, the hexagons to count the piggies.
This workmat uses the TouchShapes as well. Without TouchShapes, the student could color the corresponding number of shapes on the right. With the TouchShapes, the student can maneuver the shapes from one side to the other before coloring. I liked using them instead of coloring, especially for a younger child, because he was forced to stop filling in the shapes in the right column after counting to five -- he was out of manipulatives. If he was coloring them, it would be very easy to just "keep on going."
The TouchMath Homeschool Program encompasses grades Pre-K through 2nd grade. While Damien was the intended student for this review, Jude also merits mentioning. Jude recently had a check-in appointment with his Developmental Pediatrics specialist. When she asked what curricula we are using for Jude, I told her the (different publisher) Math program we were currently working with, but that I was using the Pre-K TouchMath for Damien and was considering switching Jude as well. She praised the program for being developmentally appropriate, and then proceeded to agree that we ought to consider the program for Jude, based on its tactile foundation. She has been a developmental pediatrician for over 20 years and has seen nearly every curriculum that is out there - both for neurotypical kids and delayed ones. When I have discussed curriculum choices before with her, she has been generally noncommittal with mostprograms I have brought up so I feel that if she is pointedly recommending something, it must be something that really is worth considering. Jude has already borrowed the 3-D numbers and they have helped him in his current program, so I may take her advice and consider purchasing the Kindergarten and/or First Grade programs for him as well.
We reviewed the Pre-K program, but click through to see what other Crew members thought of the different levels. I'm definitely checking out the reviews to plan for next year!
I am just so incredibly impressed with TouchMath! When we have finished the 1st grade materials, I'll be purchasing the PDF files for 2nd grade! Great details and pictures in your review!
As a note, the TouchMath Home School Programs are available in the printed version for an additional $20 per Unit. You may contact TouchMath at 800-888-9191 to make arrangements.
Hi Meg. We are thrilled that you and your family enjoyed the program, and are always happy to hear and see ways in which TouchMath positively impacts students! Thank you for the informative write-up and wonderful photos of the program in use in your home. Keep up the great work, Damien! Please let us know if we can be of assistance in the future, and if you have questions in looking for materials that would be a good fit for Jude.

Scarlett Johansson shares how her 7-year-old daughter gets along with baby Cosmo
Cydney Henderson
When it comes to Scarlett Johansson's new son, her eldest daughter is indifferent.
"She's pretty neutral about it, which I think is a good thing," Johansson said during a Tuesday appearance on "The Ellen Show" about her 7-year-old daughter Rose, who's a big sister to four-month-old Cosmo.
"She'll come home and she's just talking a mile a minute and I have to remind her, 'Say hi to your brother.' And she goes, 'He's so cute,' and is going on and on," Johansson told host Ellen DeGeneres.
Johansson and husband Colin Jost welcomed Cosmo, their first child together, in August. Johansson shares Rose with ex-husband Romain Dauriac.
The "Black Widow" actor explained that she "imagines" her children will "be very different people." While Cosmo is "pretty laid back" and newly obsessed with "putting his feet in his mouth," Johansson said her daughter is "bossy" and "headstrong."
"I don't know where she gets that from," Johansson sarcastically added, with a guilty look on her face.

Johansson reflects on 'Black Widow' Disney lawsuit: 'It feels like some progress'
Johansson also discussed her and Jost's differing parenting styles, labeling herself the disciplinarian and her "Saturday Night Live" spouse as "so easy going."
Speaking to USA TODAY in November during the 35th annual American Cinematheque Award Show in Beverly Hills, California, Johansson said she's been busy soaking up the "miracle" of motherhood and ogling baby Cosmo.
"I'm very fortunate I've had time to enjoy my early motherhood and not be working tirelessly," she said. "When I had my daughter, I think at this point I was shooting 'Captain America 3,' it was a lot to jump into. I was very thankful to be working at that time, and now I'm very thankful to not be."
'Is it final?'Colin Jost says his mom was 'slightly thrown' after naming her grandchild Cosmo
Jost and Johansson announced the birth of their baby boy in August. Jost wrote in an Instagram post, "Ok Ok we had a baby. His name is Cosmo… We love him very much."
The couple tied the knot in October 2020 and announced the nuptials through a post on the Instagram page for Meals on Wheels America, a charity providing food and resources to the elderly. The post featured a picture of a Staten Island Ferry with the words "Jost Married" across the top.
"Their wedding wish is to help make a difference for vulnerable older adults during this difficult time by supporting @mealsonwheelsamerica," the caption read. "Please consider donating to celebrate the happy couple by clicking the link in our bio."

Who and what should win? It is always a problem at the Emmys to see so many repeat winners year after year. By now, I've run my handicaps for the key series and actor races, but I'm always up for shaking things up and daring to do something a little different. Here are a few wildcard picks of not necessarily what I think will win, but what would satisfy me mightily if they do.
In the DRAMA SERIES race, for instance, there are lots of good choices, and Game Of Thrones already won last year, so enough blood and guts. I might go with Better Call Saul from AMC. I can't think of anything more difficult than following up one of the greatest television series of all time (yes, that would be Breaking Bad), and delivering something equally compelling and yet distinct. Saul earns it on degree of difficulty, and I'm a huge Vince Gilligan fan, but wouldn't it be equally great to see The Americans steal it away? I wouldn't mind a bit.
For COMEDY SERIES, Veep is great, and never more timely, and can't be beat. But, going rogue, I'd love to see ABC's Black-ish break through and make a statement. It's a show that can be both funny and pertinent.
In the LIMITED SERIES category, I very much admired what they accomplished in The People V. O.J. Simpson, but Simpson himself is so creepy. I'm also a John le Carré fan, so when an adaptation comes along firing on as many cylinders as The Night Manager does, I have to give it props—and some Emmys.
All is right with the TELEVISION MOVIE category: All The Way deserves to win, and it will win.
Over in VARIETY TALK SERIES, though, I'm sick and tired of seeing Bill Maher lose consistently over the past few decades, beginning with Politically Incorrect. He has been brilliant this election season, so I say, after 13 years of Comedy Central rule, let's give HBO's Maher his Emmy.
For VARIETY SKETCH SERIES, it's actually shocking how few times Saturday Night Live has won this thing. For sheer longevity, I say SNL.
For SPECIAL CLASS PROGRAM, the class of this field of awards shows and football half-times is actually Fox's Grease: Live, which shows you how you do it. UPDATE: And it turns out my fellow Academy members agreed with me as Grease: Live did win this category and three others during last weekend's Creative Arts Emmy ceremonies. However, director Thomas Kail, Tony Award-winner for Hamilton, is up for Grease: Live in the Variety Special Directing category tonight and a win would make him one of the few people ever to take a Tony and Emmy in the same year.
And in REALITY COMPETITION, my vote goes to The Bachelor. Oh wait… that guilty pleasure has never been nominated. I abstain out of protest.

If ever there was a BASE jumper deserving a "E!" True Hollywood Story, that would be the man you recognize by his trademark "Take Care, Space" signature line.
Tracy "Space" Walker, born and raised in the deep south of the United States, is every bit a self-made man. He was reared along with an older brother by his single mother and grandmother during the early years of his childhood. It was later, during his teenage years and surviving a heavy-handed stepfather, whom Tracy would come to describe as the epitome of evil that life served up some tough knocks. Tracy set out on his own as soon as he was able to fly the coop, breaking a negative cycle in search of a positive life. To hear tales of his teenage years makes one cringe; to know the caring, loving man that he became against the odds, makes one want to sing his praises.
Ask any of the BASE jumpers who have had the pleasure of his company on a jump, or the opportunity to spend time talking with him and you will hear the same descriptions over and over. "Space is the Yoda of BASE", "He is a guru of sorts", "He mentors the best of the best." As research progressed I soon heard, "He is mentor to Felix the glory hound of all glory hounds." I could almost hear the "booing and hissing" in the background as the words rang in my ears.
In my first conversation with Tracy I decided to cut right to the chase, flat-out hit him right between the eyes, "Are you responsible for the monster that is Felix Baumgartner?" He laughed and agreed to take full responsibility, before continuing on to explain the joy of having trained such an athlete as Felix. He assured me that Felix is no monster, a bit "misunderstood" by the general BASE population, has a bit of an ego, (gasp I said, "ego in a BASE jumper it can't be") and like everyone else on this planet has made some mistakes in judgment.
In those few statements alone I gathered a basic understanding on how Tracy felt about mentoring. His love of all things BASE jumping could be summed up in the loyalty and concern he exhibits on behalf of his students. BASE jumping is a serious topic and is meant to be treated with respect. BASE jumps aren't just made, they are planned and executed, a spiritual experience to be savored and celebrated.
I asked him to share his viewpoint on whether he felt it was important for every BASE jumper to have a mentor and how much control or influence does the mentor have over the jumper's activity?
Tracy considers the fact that he has been around for "awhile and have probably ground crewed and witnessed more BASE jumps than anybody (ca 10,000) and witnessed it's growth from infancy" as what makes him unique to the sport of BASE. He adds, "I also have the notorious distinction of being the instructor/mentor of infamous high profile jumpers, John Vincent and Felix Baumgartner and famous guys also." In questioning him about his greatest achievement in life, the focus shifts from BASE to helping people. "Facilitating change in people's lives is my achievement. I have gotten thanks for this many times." Tracy enjoys teaching about life as much, if not more than he enjoys teaching about BASE.
He is a student of life who as a child devoured whole encyclopedias in his thirst for answers. He tells me that he hasn't achieved his childhood dreams as he is "still in my childhood and I just keep dreaming". Continuing on he explains how BASE has contributed to his personal growth, "it brought me around the world. It matured me in the social sense that I realized that the US of A did not have everything and the US of A is not the land of the free unless you count "free to do as you are told".
Recently added to his list of hobbies of "Foot-bag, Rubik's cube, card tricks" is Foosball. You can find Tracy online discussing, practicing or playing Foosball at all hours of the day. He is determined to master the game so much so, that his wife presented him with a Foosball table for his most recent birthday.
In speaking with Tracy you must learn to keep your eye on the ball so to speak. The conversation moves in beats as steadily as it does in transitioning topics; suddenly you find yourself being quizzed on numerous philosophical viewpoints. Emperor Joseph II is quoted in the movie Amadeus, as saying to Mozart: "My dear young man, don't take it too hard. Your work is ingenious. It's quality work. And there are simply too many notes, that's all. Just cut a few and it will be perfect". To which Mozart replied, "Which few did you have in mind, Majesty?" During the next round of questions, I found myself feeling as if some notes went missing, but later realized it is part of Tracy's charm to be as short in his responses as he can be elaborate and generous with his words in other instances.
What is it about BASE jumping that you least enjoy? "Pilot chute hesitations".
In the end, after months, yes months, of bobbing and weaving, receiving bits and pieces at a time in trying to complete a portrait of "Space", the Yoda, the BASE Guru, I "nagged" him into sharing two of his stories. I only wish this was an audio tape so that you could all get the full effect of a "Spacey Tracy" BASE story. Anyone who has ever had the pleasure of spending time with Tracy knows how blessed I am as a writer to be given the opportunity to learn from him about BASE, life and "not sweating the small stuff, because it's all small stuff". Period. Take Care, Space.

I am so deeply impressed with this young man. He comes across as a very devoted person to his job with such care and perfection. Even though he had such a horrific youth he totally became his own person. This story was so very well written and gives you a deep impression with his knowledge and determination. Thank for letting me read this. Sincerly Henny Frank.
I was married to Tracy's father for a couple off years. Met Tracy who than was a small child. I divorced his dad because he was a violent man. Now I wish I would have bee able to be a part off his life. I will try to continue to do so. After all I was and still am his stepmom.

Family of Companies, started in 1976, that provides Pre-Employment Screening and Speciality Services in Over 45 Countries.
IBIS Corporation Pre-Employment Screening
Frequent areas of inquiry include:
• Business, corporate histories and lifestyles of the companies
• Business, personal history and lifestyle of the principal(s)
• Civil and criminal litigation
• Current corporate operations and operating history
• Discreet inquiries concerning known business and personal associations
• Discreet Inquiries concerning current and former business partners
• Human resources and personnel
• Project track records
• Legal, regulatory and environmental issues in their areas of operation
• Reputation in the community
• Assets
Inquiries are done "on-the-ground" in the subject's areas of operation. IBIS confidential sources and resources in those areas are utilized. Naturally all contacts with regulatory agencies, law enforcement, other civil authorities, industry, financial sources and so forth are kept as discreet as possible to avoid identification of our client.
Background Checks:
There is no such thing as an "international criminal record check" and the fact that an individual has a work permit and was approved for entry is no assurance as to his character or background. Records have to be checked on the ground in each jurisdiction in which the person has lived or worked.
It also should be noted that a resume that indicates the subject worked for a multinational's operation in a foreign country as one of 10,000 employees there does little to determine the applicant's actual work history with that company. It is important to get as much detail as possible concerning his precise job title, the exact location of his previous workplaces and the names and titles of his supervisors.
IBIS background checks are thorough, in-depth and comprehensive. Our operatives in-country speak directly to the applicant's former employers and references, and if the results cannot be verified, or if there are gaps in the applicant's history we can't fill, that is included in our reports.


Racing driver Vicki Butler-Henderson, Millennial motoring journalist Rachael Hogg, and motoring journalist mum Erin Baker (REV!), are testing three of the UK's most popular hot hatches, based on how people search for them at Auto Trader.
They look at how easily each car can fit into your lifestyle, how offended your mum will be by it, how practical it is for hooning, how easy the technology is to use and, obviously, what it's like to drive.
Of course you're going to want your hot hatch to handle like a dream, so VBH puts each one through a cone challenge.
So, which one gets your vote? The lairy Civic Type R, the sensible-looking (but definitely not sensible) Seat Leon Cupra ST, or the granddaddy of the hot hatches, the Golf GTI?

In An Election Year, Africa's Largest Democracy Confronts Disinformation Head On
by Daniel Arnaudo in Washington, DC Sep 05, 2019 Sep 05, 2019
Democracy and Technology Elections Governance Nigeria
The findings of the "Sorting Fact From Fiction" report were presented at the two-day "Conference on Combating Disinformation and Misinformation" in Abuja
In February 2019, Nigeria went to the polls to elect its President, Vice President, House of Representatives and the Senate facing an exponentially growing volume of news and online information about the election and various campaigns, particularly of President Muhammadu Buhari and his challenger, Atiku Abubakar. As information access grows online, Africa's largest democracy is also facing a rising wave of disinformation, hate speech and computational propaganda used by candidates and their supporters to win elections, attack opponents, and weaken faith in democratic institutions - and the democratic process overall.
Supported by USAID's Electoral Empowerment for Civil Society Program, NDI worked with local partners in Nigeria at the Center for Democracy and Development to outline what happened online during the election and identify solution driven responses through fact checking, media literacy and research into the online environment. This resulted in a new report published by CDD: "Sorting Fact From Fiction." The findings of the report were presented at the two-day "Conference on Combating Disinformation and Misinformation" in Abuja. The report highlighted issues related to false and inflammatory content plaguing Nigerians and people all over the world. At the event, representatives from NDI, CDD and other organizations discussed issues related to false content, hate speech against women and ethnic groups, and media literacy.
Internet penetration in Nigeria is rapidly increasing as the rate of Nigerians with access grows exponentially. More people are getting online through their cell phones, and social media networks like Twitter and Facebook are becoming increasingly popular. According to the Nigerian Communication Commission, over half of Nigeria's 190 million citizens now have access to the Internet.The messaging service WhatsApp is also very popular, and while it is not a public facing social network, comprised of closed member groups often made up of family and friends, it has become a medium for political campaigns and their allies to reach audiences. Research completed by CDD in collaboration with international researchers from the University of Birmingham, supported by WhatsApp, showed the prominent role that closed messaging system played in the election, used by campaigns and ordinary users to spread both truthful and false information.
NDI has been working with CDD to spread awareness about disinformation issues through fact checking, particularly on WhatsApp, that it shares online through its website, Twitter and Facebook profiles. Various fact checks CDD published during the 2019 national election campaign and afterwards found stories circulating about a possible invasion of the country, a Presidential body double and various false stories and content, often featuring violence and confusion at the polls. Besides attacks and supportive messages about candidates and parties, these disinformation campaigns often target the institutions of democracy itself, weakening confidence in them and trust in the election and the bodies that govern it. CDD continually monitored social media for fact checking and research that contributed to their reporting, and set up an Election Analysis Center for real time monitoring and public information on social media on election day itself.
This became a particular concern because the elections were delayed due to logistical issues. As a result, confusing messages and conspiracy theories grew louder still. Ultimately President Buhari won election by over three million votes, but the challenges of the campaign were vividly illustrated as the National Democratic Institute and the International Republican Institute's Joint International Observation Mission "concluded that the 2019 elections did not meet the expectations of many Nigerians" due to the delays and challenges to the administration of the vote which "undermined public confidence in the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)." These issues were reflected in the online space, as disinformation and misinformation about the delay and acts of violence were spread on social networks and messaging platforms. Disinformation, false information shared with intent to deceive, would often be spread, while ordinary users and voters then received the false stories and shared misinformation without knowledge of its deceitful content.
NDI's final report on the general election also revealed that the stakeholders the mission spoke with "expressed concern over the levels and role of disinformation in the elections in the pre-election period." The report also highlighted research conducted by CDD and NDI that found "websites and social media profiles of legitimate civil society organizations, observation groups and media outlets were cloned or hacked, and then used to spread disinformation to audiences who believed they were consulting trusted sources." These sites, major fact checks, disinformation campaigns, and other aspects of the online landscape during the election are detailed in CDD's new report "Sorting Fact From Fiction," which also features a survey of public Nigerian Facebook groups and Twitter accounts, the content they promoted, and their conversations.
New gubernatorial elections in the Kogi and Bayelsa states for governor will take place in November, and NDI is working with CDD to extend its approach from the general election, while keeping tabs on the broader Nigerian online landscape to develop new national level research in the future. CDD and NDI are developing trainings for local fact checkers, local election analysis centers, as well as awareness raising events such as this week's conference for high level stakeholders in parties, INEC representatives, media, and civil society. These events will focus on media literacy, disinformation and other problematic content to explain how the online space increasingly influences civic discourse and political processes there. NDI will continue its collaboration with CDD as part of its global INFO/tegrity initiative to promote information integrity, support local partners in their efforts to understand their digital national contexts, train others and spread knowledge on these critical issues to counter negative online speech, and ultimately contribute to a more positive information environment for democracies globally.
