Don't React, Act
Reacting to conflicts often leaves us in the lurch. However, with time, patience, and practice, you instead can make responding or acting your primary method of dealing with tricky situations.
Professor M.S.Rao, Ph.D.
"Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on Earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude." —Thomas Jefferson
Many conflicts arise when people react rather than act in a situation. Most problems could be resolved if people endeavored to do so with a positive attitude. Here, act is accompanied by a positive attitude, while react comes with a negative one. You can easily judge a person by the way he or she approaches a conflict. If the person approaches it with a negative attitude, the conflict will be aggravated. However, if the person approaches it with a positive attitude, the conflict will be resolved easily.
People often blame God for all their problems, when they alone are responsible for all of them. When people attack others negatively and with a bad attitude, they invite problems for themselves. Sometimes envy takes over and they sever their relations with others. Other times, people blame individuals for all issues without looking at ideas to resolve them. People often want an easy life and quick success and compromise on several things, and then blame God for the consequences.
90:10 Principle
When one of my students wanted to share the 90:10 principle with me, I requested him to share it in the presence of other students, so they, too, could benefit from his knowledge. He said that 90 percent of problems can be solved by acting rather than reacting to the situation, and that 10 percent of problems are beyond human control. Therefore, we should not concern ourselves much with that 10 percent that arise out of external forces and factors, but we need to take a look at the 90 percent of problems that can be tackled easily with a proactive attitude and approach. Treat every problem as a prospect and every lesson as a path toward your success.
Reaction vs. Response
People often miss the subtle difference between reacting and responding. There is a difference between the two, with the former word sending a negative and the latter a positive message. If people know the difference between the two and approach a situation intending to respond rather than react to challenges, I am sure most problems can be averted and conflicts resolved.
It is essential to respond rather than react, and to act rather than react to others. By nature, most people react rather than respond to unfavorable situations. This proves to be costly later. And most people are aware of this, so it is unfortunate that people still react in the heat of the moment and regret it later.
Reacting often leaves us in the lurch. However, with time, patience, and practice, you can make responding your primary method of dealing with tricky situations. Sometimes people magnify tiny problems and worry a lot, resulting in more provocative reactions. Certain things in our lives are beyond our control. There is no point in reacting to such situations. People often waste their precious energies by brooding over things over which they have no control.
Life is in your hands. You have a choice to make—either to react or to respond to a conflict or a tricky situation. It is said that below-average individuals talk about individuals, average individuals talk about issues, and above-average individuals talk about ideas. Everything is present in the human mind, and informs how an individual views a scenario and approaches to handle it.
Your life depends on the path you choose and the decisions you make. Life is full of challenges, and people face problems from the cradle to the grave. Responding rather than reacting makes sense, and makes your life peaceful and pleasant. It also helps you to empathize with others when they have problems of their own.
Several wars have broken out due to the reactive attitude of our rulers. If rulers had only acted with restraint, they could have averted such conflict. Ultimately, it was the people who were killed and countries that met with disasters. When people act rather than react, most of their problems are resolved naturally.
To conclude, have a positive, right, and strong attitude and learn to act rather than react to situations. I also advocate for one of the success sutras from my book, "21 Success Sutras for Leaders": Have an attitude of gratitude toward God.

Olympiska bojkotten vid olympiska sommarspelen 1980 i Moskva var en del av en serie händelser som initierades av USA för att protestera mot Sovjetunionens invasion av Afghanistan. Bojkotten föranledde en bojkott vid de olympiska sommarspelen 1984 av Sovjetunionen och kommunistvänliga länder som svar på bojkotten.

Bakgrund

Som ett resultat av att Sovjetunionen invaderade Afghanistan 1979 utfärdade USA:s president Jimmy Carter ett ultimatum den 28 januari 1980, i vilket det framgick att USA skulle bojkotta de olympiska spelen i Moskva såvida inte Sovjets trupper drog sig tillbaka från Afghanistan inom en månad. Bojkottens för- och nackdelar diskuterades av Bilderberggruppen i Aachen framemot slutet av april. Debatten berörde frågan huruvida bojkotten skulle kunna uppfattas på en global nivå som en sentimental snarare än strategisk aktion. En afrikansk representant vid mötet menade att en bojkott skulle vara en effektiv symbolisk protest eftersom det då kommer visas tydligt för Sovjetunionens medborgare, oavsett om själva händelsen föranleder ett gensvar eller inte. Carteradministrationen utövade hård press mot de övriga NATO-länderna, som inte alla var eniga med bojkottförslaget. Den tyska förbundskanslern Helmut Schmidt beklagade USA:s attityd om att de allierade bara "skulle göra vad de var tillsagda." Boxaren Muhammad Ali skickades av administrationen till Tanzania, Nigeria och Senegal för att övertyga deras ledare att gå med i bojkotten. Alis offentliga kommentarer i Tanzania var dock inte uppskattade i den amerikanska pressen och det diplomatiska uppdraget sågs i sig själv som ett misslyckande.

USA fick till slut med sig några länder i bojkotten, däribland Japan, Västtyskland (med liten marginal lyckades Schmidt övertyga den nationella olympiska kommittén att inte skicka ett lag), Kina, Filippinerna, Argentina och Kanada. Vissa av dessa deltog i de olympiska bojkottspelen i Philadelphia. Storbritannien, Frankrike och Australien stödde bojkotten men tillät idrottare att delta om de så ville och lämnade det slutgiltiga beslutet om deltagande till sina respektive nationella olympiska kommittéer och de individuella idrottarna. Både Storbritannien och Frankrikes delegation var mycket mindre än vanligt, och de brittiska delegaterna inom ridsport, hockey och segling bojkottade spelen totalt. Trots detta var Storbritanniens delegation den största i västra Europa, med 170 idrottare som tävlads.

Spanien, Italien, Sverige, Island och Finland var andra västländer som deltog i spelen. De italienska idrottare som tillhörde militären deltog dock inte eftersom regeringen stödde bojkotten, och detta påverkade många händelser. Vissa USA-födda tävlanden som var medborgare i andra länder såsom Italien och Australien tävlade i Moskva. Vid öppnings- och avslutningsceremonierna marscherade många idrottare, såsom Australien, Andorra, Belgien, Danmark, Frankrike, Storbritannien, Irland, Italien, Luxemburg, Nederländerna, Portugal, Puerto Rico, San Marino, Spanien och Schweiz, under den olympiska flaggan istället för sina respektive nationella, vilket Sovjets media ignorerade totalt. Även om Nya Zeelands regering dessutom officiellt stödde bojkotten tävlade fyra idrottare från landet självständigt men marscherade ändå under sin nationella flagga. 16 länder var därmed inte representerade av sina nationella flaggor, och den olympiska hymnen ersatte deras nationalsånger vid medaljceremonierna. Det var därigenom några ceremonier där tre olympiska flaggor hissades.

Trots att bara 80 nationer deltog sattes fler världsrekord i Moskva än i olympiska sommarspelen 1976.

Länder som icke deltog

65 länder deltog inte trots att de var inbjudna. Vissa deltog inte av andra anledningar än bojkotten såsom ekonomiska. Qatar var inte inbjudna.

Ändrade deltagare

16 nationer deltog men paraderade utan sin nationella flagga.

Nationer som inte deltog i öppningsceremonin
7 länder deltog inte i öppningsceremonin:

Nationer under olympiska flaggan av tävlandena själva
4 nationer deltog under spelen under den olympiska flaggan och av sina egna idrottare:

Länder som tävlade under olympiska kommitténs flagga

Följder

De påföljande olympiska sommarspelen 1984 i Los Angeles innebar en annan bojkott som påbörjades av Sovjetunionen, som den 8 maj 1984 klargjorde att landet skulle bojkotta spelen i Los Angeles på grund av de "chauvinistiska sentiment och den anti-Sovjet-hysteri som skapats i USA." 13 länder deltog, alla allierade till Sovjet. Totalt 14 länder bojkottade därmed. Iran och Albanien var de enda som bojkottade båda spelen.

Auto Review AR62 Allard,Jensen,Railton & more users of Amercian Engine
Product Code: AR62
The British were not the first European car manufacturers to put big American engines into their cars. In the 1920s and 1930s many Continental car-makers used engines from the USA. Sizaire used the Willys-Knight sleeve-valve engine. BNC, Delaunay-Belleville, Hansa and others used Continental straight eights, and the famous Bucciali 16-cylinder engine was made up from two Continental eights. These were mostly large luxury cars, which needed the power of the big American engines to haul their heavy bodies around. The aim of the British car makers who used American engines (and chassis in some cases) was rather different; they wanted high performance. Many elegant British sporting machines were rather lacking in power (and often in reliability), whereas imported American cars offered high power for much less money, but some British drivers did not want to be seen in cheap trans-atlantic cars. As prices of cars from the classic British marques spiralled upwards, however, fewer and fewer buyers could afford to buy their products, especially in the financially straitened 1930s. The answer was to offer classic British coachwork, but with the power and reliability of an American engine under the bonnet. This also allowed smaller firms to get a toehold in producing speedy British-built tourers in competition with the larger and more established marques. Many names have been applied to this class of car; 'hybrids' (nowadays more usually applied to cars with more than one form of motive power, such as petrol and electric), 'big bangers' (more bang for your buck, perhaps) and 'bastards' (more to do with their unmentionable parentage than with their behavioural characteristics). In this book we look at British car makers who adopted American car engines from the 1930s to the 1960s; Allard, Atalanta, Batten, Brough-Superior, Gordon-Keeble, Jensen, Lammas-Graham, Leidart, Railton, TVR and Trident. Other notable British marques which used American engines, such as AC and Bristol, are covered in other titles in the Auto Review series, so they just get a passing mention here. Many other makers tried inserting a big American engine into a British car, so we apologise in advance if we omit your favourite obscurity, though a few byways are explored here.

[ Kermode Newfoundland Property ] [Geological Summary ]
Geological Summary
Kermode's Jackson's Arm property in Newfoundland has the potential to contain two different, but related, deposit types. Firstly a bulk tonnage open pittable gold deposit and secondly a Carlin-type gold deposit. The 63 holes drilled to date on the property have partially defined the bulk tonnage potential and also point the way to the Carlin-type potential.
Bulk Tonnage
The Jackson's Arm alteration zone is exposed for 1.7 kilometres along the Cat Arm Road to the north and south of Rattling Brook. Gold mineralization occurs in this alteration zone and was the focus of most of the work carried out on the property to date. The exposed hydrothermal alteration zone is in late Proterozoic granitoid rocks. The gold mineralization is associated with sulphides occurring in veins, fractures and disseminations in the alteration zone.
Two main zones of gold mineralization of this type are known to occur about 1 kilometre apart and have been partially drilled. The Road zone is in alkali-enriched granite with strong alteration and mineralization over an area greater than 600 metres by greater than 300 metres. Drilled widths such as 47 metres grading 1.1 g/t Au are encountered in this zone. The Apsy zone is of similar extent and intersections such as 1.1 g/t Au over 67 metres are reported.
Kermode's target is an open pittable deposit of 50 to 100 million tonnes, grading 1 to 1.25 g/t Au similar to Kennecott's Ridgeway Mine in South Carolina. Ridgeway produced 1.47 million ounces of gold from 60 million tons of ore over an 11 year mine life -- a recovered grade of 0.0245 opt Au or 0.84 g/t Au. Ridgeway was not a heap leach operation, rather the ore was milled to less than 200 mesh and the gold extracted by a conventional carbon-in-pulp process.
Carlin-type
The alteration zones and gold mineralization in the granites on the Jackson's Arm property have been shown to extend into the unconformably overlying favourable Lower Paleozoic platform sediments. On regional, district and deposit scales the Jackson's Arm property shows strong similarities to gold deposits in the Carlin District of Nevada.
The major distinguishing features of Carlin-type deposits are the presence of micron-scale gold disseminated throughout mainly carbonate-bearing sedimentary host rocks. Orebodies tend to be stratabound disseminated zones, irregular breccia bodies and/or siliceous replacement zones near steep faults. The gold-bearing rocks typically underwent de-calcification, silicification and argillic alteration and are associated closely with replacement of the carbonate rock by jasperoid. The deposits also show a distinctive suite of trace elements including arsenic, antimony and mercury.
At Jackson's Arm, the alteration zones in the granite are characterized by argillic alteration and silicification in addition to the gold the mineralization contains arsenic, antimony and mercury. Drilling has shown that the alteration zones continue upward from the granite and mineralize the overlying platform sediments. One hole shows a 35 metre section of altered limestones bearing gold, within this a 23.35 metre section averages 1.12 g/t Au. This intersection has not been followed up. Many holes encountered significant gold values in the quartzites immediately overlying the mineralized granites. Mineralization is known over a 4 kilometre strike length, 3 gold zones have been discovered but the majority of the area is untested.
Zones of jasperoid have recently been discovered on the Jackson's Arm property near to lakes with highly anomalous gold values in the lake sediments. These areas are unexplored.
Kermode's target is a Carlin-type deposit in the calcareous platform sediments overlying the known gold zones in the granites. Carlin-deposits range from small (less than 100,000 tonnes) to very large (greater than 200,000,000 tonnes) and vary in grade from 1 to 20 g/t Au. The Carlin deposit itself is reported to contain 20 million tonnes grading 11.4 g/t Au. The Carlin district is one of the most significant gold producing areas in the United States and the 50 millionth ounce of gold was produced from the Carlin trend, Nevada on 16 May 2002.

In this video (part 1 of 2), Pal Fekete discusses his role guiding innovative curriculum as Academic Director at Taylors College in Sydney; a preparation college for international students poised to attend the University of Sydney.
With a passion for innovation in pedagogy and as an early adopter of technology, Pal outlines his history as a maverick in the use of fledgling online technology in the late 1980s-90s, deploying this in the education sector, and his engagement with early version learning management systems.
Pal explores the power of technology-based tools and video platforms to enhance the learning experience, and details his process for delivering impactful content online. He explains how he applies these principles to the hard sciences including his subject matter forte, physics, and his approach for scaling to other subjects across the broader curriculum toward stakeholder buy-in.
Delving into authentic assessment design to uphold academic integrity, Pal explains his institution's use of invigilation software and its efficacy as a supplementary measure for assessment security, rather than the crux of the strategy. He also covers their reliance on tools such as Turnitin to instil formative learning above punitive measures, to safeguard integrity.
Finally, Pal evaluates the opportunities heralded by the pandemic-induced online learning experiment, including facilitation of the 'flipped learning' modality through online resources, and gamification and its less straightforward application to subjects such as the hard sciences.
In this video (part 2 of 2), Pal continues the discussion on steering innovative curriculum at Taylors College...

When "The Other Woman" Becomes the Main Character
From the Unlikeable Female Characters Podcast
August 21, 2020 By Unlikeable Female Characters
via Unlikeable Female Characters
On each episode of Unlikeable Female Characters, feminist thriller writers Kristen Lepionka, Layne Fargo, and Wendy Heard talk about female characters who don't give a damn if you like them.
This week on the podcast, Kristen, Layne, and Wendy take on the much-maligned character of the mistress, from scheming best friends to psycho bunny boilers. When does the "other woman" get to be the main character, instead of just the villain in someone else's story? (And more importantly: when will we stop blaming women for men's mistakes?)
From the episode:
Wendy: I'm fascinated with mistresses that are psychos, like the Fatal Attraction mistress or in the movie Obsessed. Or, also, I would argue Alex from Orange is the New Black.
Kristen: Yeah, she can lean that way a little bit.
Wendy: I find this idea fascinating that you have a man who falls into the clutches. Anytime you have a man who falls into the clutches, I'm sort of like, interesting. So you have a grown man who's usually in a powerful position, he's a lawyer or he's a businessman. That means he's real smart. And then, he's got a wife. His wife is nice. You know, she's a nice person. She didn't do anything wrong. But then he falls into the clutches. And here comes psycho bitch who just… It's almost like the witch archetype. She casts a spell on him and then he, as the nice guy, could not help but to just do her. But he didn't mean anything by it so now he's going to go back to his wife, because his wife is nice and pretty and young. Then the psycho bitch is going to do her thing. She's going to boil rabbits. She's going to stalk him. And now it's a thriller. You know what I'm saying? This idea that we have that this as a thing, she has the power to ruin everything for him. She's going to burn his whole world down.
Layne: He just made one mistake with his penis.
Kristen: One tiny mistake. And now he's the hero of the story because she's a pscyho.
Layne: She's the main character.
Wendy: I find that so interesting because in no way is he really responsible. Like, we feel bad for him. We feel like, god, it was fun for a second. We see how he got into this.
Kristen: I don't feel bad for him [but] from a narrative perspective we're supposed to sympathize with this man who made the one tiny penis mistake.
Wendy: It just cannot be held responsible for what pulls it.

So much for the rainbow bridge. Fleet had to follow the river inland to get to where he was heading—passing the current...


Oscar De La Renta's pre fall 2012 collection was shown on Tuesday. For those not lucky enough to receive an invite, the show was also streamed live on the brand's Tumblr site. What a way to utilise social media!
Any how, back to the topic in hand...the show.
Preppy tailoring, statement prints, feminine dresses, floor length gowns and directional design, this collection has it all. I did find it all a bit of a mish-mash of many ideas as we see many different styles and pieces in this collection. I tend to enjoy a subtle signature thread running through a collection to hold it together and I did find that this collection lacks that but that in no way means that each piece isn't pretty darn great...there are unquestionably brilliant pieces throughout and many are in my (somewhat brimming) imaginary wardrobe.
Well done ODLR, another successful season ahead. (Now if someone could get me a winning lottery ticket soon, that would be just grand).
I really like how the collection seems to encompass all AW11 trends from the hint of mustard to the tweed twinsets and bows.

London calling: NFL agrees to play regular-season games at Twickenham Stadium
LONDON -- The NFL is on the move in London, with more games to come.
After nearly a decade of playing its games solely at Wembley Stadium, the league said Tuesday it would stage at least one game per season starting next year at Twickenham Stadium, the home of England's national rugby team.
"We are committed to continuing to grow our sport in the U.K. and believe that adding Twickenham Stadium to our roster of host venues in London is further evidence of that commitment," NFL executive vice president of international Mark Waller said.
The agreement is for at least one game per season over the next three years, with an option for two more.
The NFL has already agreed to play at least two games per season at Wembley through 2020, and has also reached a 10-year deal to play at least two games at Tottenham's new soccer stadium starting in 2018.
That means there will be a minimum of five regular-season NFL games in London in 2018 -- two at Wembley, two at Tottenham's stadium and one at Twickenham.
The NFL first played a regular-season game at Wembley in 2007, when the New York Giants beat the Miami Dolphins 13-10. This season, the league had three games at the home of England's national soccer team, concluding on Sunday when the Kansas City Chiefs beats the Detroit Lions 45-10.
Attendance at Wembley has been big, with more than 80,000 spectators at all but one of the 14 games so far. The highest attendance was 84,254 in 2009 when the New England Patriots beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 35-7.
Twickenham drew 80,125 on Saturday for the Rugby World Cup final, when New Zealand beat Australia 34-17. Twickenham also hosted both semifinal games and two in the quarterfinals.
"We are delighted to welcome the NFL to Twickenham, a stadium that has played such an integral role in what has been the biggest Rugby World Cup ever," RFU chief commercial and marketing officer Sophie Goldschmidt said.
Tottenham's new stadium, which is due to open in 2018, is expected to seat about 61,000 for soccer.

First wedding of the season now complete and it's time for a new style of blog posting of the images including lots more than usual!
First up on the day were the men. This wasn't actually supposed to be the case but Louise arrived later than expected (and worried us all a little!) that morning. Here's a portrait of the groom, Richard.
When Louise arrived I joined the girls for some photographs as they got ready. I thought Louise's vintage feel bouquet was stunning.
This is AJ, Louise's sister and bridesmaid (Louise and Richard's daughter Eva was also bridesmaid).
Although late, I grabbed this quick moment of Louise coming down the stairs because I knew she really wanted this image.
Louise with her proud father before going down the aisle.
The ceremony started as a normal civil service but at the end the registrar left and Louise's Dad, who is a minister, did a blessing. Louise and Richard's children were a big part of the day. Connor was best man and had the rings during the ceremony, meanwhile 2 year old Eva couldn't help but make herself part of the proceedings by calling out when she heard her parents voices delivering the vows!
After the ceremony I got the steal the newly weds away for some pictures. Rookery Hall has beautiful grounds and we were so lucky with the weather as the forecast said heavy rain and you'll see from the images it was quite the opposite. I really enjoyed this part of the day because both Louise and Richard seemed to appreciate having a short break, I think you can see that on their faces on this first image!
They're so happy, I love it! The next picture shows just how amazing the weather and views were (although the faces aren't so great, you can't see that, and I really wanted to keep this image in my selection! Next time I do a shot from so far away I'll learn to take a few).
This next image is the one every photographer I researched at Rookery Hall seems to take so I couldn't help myself! A bit cheesy though right!?
I am very proud of my group shot, just look at the scenery!
Speeches next and Connor gave a fantastic best man speech. I love this shot with his Dad laughing in the background!
Then the other two best men, long time friends of Richard, gave their speech including a version of the game Mr and Mrs.
After the speeches I grabbed Louise and Richard for the twilight shots we had discussed trying to achieve. It was a bit later than it should have been so there wasn't a lot of blue left in the sky but enough to make it worth it. Here's a different image to the one I used in my preview blog.
On to the first dance and this is my favourite image.
My last image shows what you get when you combine one very happy boy and a chocolate fountain!
I hope you've enjoyed my new style wedding photo story. If you want to see more photographs from Louise and Richard's day you can visit their main page here.
I'm taking part in and photographing a hen do in London this weekend but will be back next week with hopefully the photographs from Saturday's wedding.

#DropOutBiden Trends, Fueled by Progressives and #MeToo Supporters
The hashtag #DropOutBiden trended on Twitter beginning early Saturday morning and throughout the day, fueled in part by progressives and #MeToo movement supporters calling on Joe Biden to drop out of the 2020 presidential race.
Although supporters of Biden tried to blame the hashtag on Russian bots, there were several prominent progressives who were using the hashtag, such as Peter Daou, a former Hillary Clinton adviser.
A number of those tweeting the hashtag seemingly included supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). As the day wore on, prominent conservative figures and pundits also began tweeting it.
The hashtag coincided with the emergence of an alleged video clip of Biden accuser Tara Reade's mother.

How then should we think
By Paul Lewis - Press Service International
I know what may possibly come to mind hearing such a topic: a famous song by English song writer Ed Sheeran, whose single peaked to number one status on the charts in the UK in Late 2014; smooth and mellow lyrics complemented by the guitars introspective tones. Close enough.
This title speaks to what the songwriter is doing, but also what we all do at times, 'think out loud'. We have daily musings that we give vent to, to try and make sense of possible jumbled thoughts and we do so out loud. Consider the all too common retort when we are heard saying something and present company thinks we are conversing with them, with the response being, "Oh, I was just thinking out loud".
We also do this on a grander level, where our thoughts are given ventilation. How do I do this you may ask? Through the words we promulgate via different mediums and platforms. Peter Hitchens in his first things article, 'The Fantasy of Addiction' makes a salient point, "Words are congealed thought - in some cases, very congealed indeed. Some words are congealed lack of thought. When we use words badly, it is because we are too lazy, or too hurried, to think about what they mean."
When we use words whether orally or written, we 'think out loud', we use words as the engine to drive our train of thinking to the minds of an impressionable audience. As such, Hitchen's quote is not just a statement to the obvious, but a cautionary word about how we use words, especially on a public platform because words convey thoughts. Thoughts convey ideas and ideas have implications and consequences. They are behind revolutions, counter revolutions and schools of thought, they are powerful and indelible.
Someone may say the sense being communicated may be restricted to an academic context. After all, aren't they the purveyors of ideas? I would argue otherwise and so would noted Christian apologist, Ravi Zacharias, who speaks along the same line. He makes the point that philosophy or ideas comes to us on three levels.
The first being theory, where ideas comes to us from writings such as Plato and Aristotle etc. Along the lines of the above concern as it relates to ideas but Zacharias does not rest there. He further states that ideas comes to us on a second level that is a bit more sweeping. It finds its place in imagination and feeling and may come to us through plays, novels, movies and music. Lastly, it comes to us by 'kitchen table talk'. According to Zacharias, much of our moralising in life goes on through casual conversations.
I say all this to say that ideas are not restricted to one particular context. We are all philosophical in one way or another, and thus we share ideas on multiple levels and especially on the last level. So in point of fact we all 'think out loud'. That being said; I want to share a couple of points for us given the sense of the topic.
Power of ideas and consequences
Firstly, we must understand the power of ideas and the fact that they do have consequences. Consider church history, when leaders found a view by an individual to be heretical, not only did they burn them at the stake, but also burnt their books at times. Machiavelli when he wrote the Prince was not allowed to circulate his books initially, because the catholic church found his views to be both immoral and destructive. As a result they were banned.
Consider even in the book of Acts after the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, as chronicled in the book of Acts, and the warning the leaders of Jerusalem gave in Acts chapter 4, verse 17, "But in order that it may spread no further among the people, let us warn them to speak no more to anyone in this name."
People understood and understand that ideas are powerful. They germinate and bear fruit once planted in impressionable minds. They not only understood the power of ideas generally, but the consequences of bad ideas - whether real or perceived. As such they went to great lengths, whether the means was legitimate or not is a separate matter, to ensure that not all ideas were given a public platform.
Responsible thinkers
This brings me to the second point about how we think out loud - the need to be responsible thinkers. There are times when given the appropriate platform, men tend to promulgate ideas, especially with the all too common caveat "freedom of expression" with little or no regard for checking the appropriateness or the truthfulness of what is shared.
Consider this point that Dr. Tim Morris makes about this same concept in his foreword of Athanasius's work, 'On the Incarnation'. He says "If you believe you are failure, you will never succeed in life; or if you believe you cannot trust others, you will never have meaningful relationships. It does matter what you believe, there is the truth about someone and there are lies. If people believe lies about you it does matter". Ideas and beliefs matter. As such, men need to be responsible as we ventilate our thoughts publicly, understanding that they are not idle and necessarily harmless in its impact.
As such we need also to be honest thinkers as well. Let me recount for you a thought that occurred to me years ago. I remember watching an interview with a popular artist answering the question of what motivated them to pursue music. The answer was rather quickly, "I want to influence people". Years later, the same artist in a separate interview was questioned about the appropriateness and truthfulness of an idea shared in their music and the response was simply, "People have a responsibility regardless of what I sing".
I couldn't help but feel the unbearable weight of the contradicting statement bouncing around in my mind. It called into question the very basis of the motivating factor for doing music. Now people have a personal responsibility mind you, but why pursue a vocation that allows one to 'influence' minds and people and then espouse a view to the contrary? We must be prepared to commit to what we say and believe as people who think publicly and "follow the argument where it leads". As the Socratic thought implores us to do, there is a great need for us to be honest in our thinking both privately and by extension publicly.
Lastly, but as equally important as the other points, we must be respectful as we convey our thoughts to attentive and impressionable listeners. In many cases, we will not all agree on a thought, granted, but the manner in which we disagree speaks volumes as well.
There are cases in which ideas and attacks against ideas are personalised. The recourse visited upon whomever is done in such a manner that is brutal and uncalled for. At some point, it can be less about the truth and more about feeling vindicated. In the public space the proverbial "glove comes off" to indicate the manner in which the discourse is about to be handled.
We must remember, especially as a Christian, that the manner in which we engage matters just as much as what we say. Consider the posture of Augustine in his famous work, "Confessions" as an example to note. "So someone asks, what did God do before He made heaven and earth? I would not answer flippantly that He was preparing hell for those who pry into mysteries. That would set aside the gravity of the question. It is one thing to answer inquiries and another to make sport of inquiries. That is not a proper way to answer. It is better to respond, I do not know regarding matters that lie ultimately beyond our imagination, than to poke fun at the one who brings up deep things".
I close with this exhortation in light of the cautions indicated above, that above all, please THINK. Please do so and continue to do so publicly because as C.S Lewis once said in his essay, "Learning in War Time", "Good philosophy must exist, if for no other reason, because bad philosophy needs to be answered". We need to Hear Good Philosophy out Loud.

Fly Pan Am ou Le Fly Pan Am, é uma banda de rock experimental do Canadá, formada em Montreal em 1996. Os álbuns de estúdio foram editados pela gravadora sediada em Montreal, a Constellation Records, que produziu e colaborou noutros trabalhos como Godspeed You! Black Emperor e Shalabi Effect.

A banda
A banda foi formada em 1996 pelos guitarristas Jonathan Parant e Roger Tellier-Craig, pelo baterista Felix Morel e pelo baixista Jean-Sebastian Truchy. Eric Gingras juntou-se mais tarde à banda em 2002, tocando guitarra e percussão. Chegaram a partilhar alguns membros com Godspeed You! Black Emperor até ao guitarrista Roger Tellier-Craig deixar a banda anterior em 2003, para se dedicar em definitivo a Fly Pan Am. Atualmente a banda em hiato, não sabendo se voltaram a juntar-se.

A banda é influente junto da população de cultura francesa do Quebec, bem como no panorama de vanguarda em Montreal. A língua francesa é a predominante na produção e letras dos álbuns, embora o inglês também tenha presença.
Os títulos das faixas antigas, como descreve Roger Tellier-Craig, foram escritas de modo a interpretar a canção, que já estava perdida pela maioria dos ouvintes, devido ao uso do francês. O uso de sons eletrónicos de forma ocasional por parte de Alexandre St-Onge, serve para captar a atenção e ao mesmo confundir o ouvinte. Roger Tellier-Craig é atualmente membro da banda pop experimental Pas Chic Chic.

Q: Play music from URI I am creating a simple music player in which user can add songs to the list in my app. Then when the user taps on a song item in the list, the user is given an option to play songs using the music players available on their device.
This is how i'm getting uri of a particular song:
 Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
            intent.setType("audio/*");
            startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Music File"), 200);

 @Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resCode, Intent data) {
        if (resCode == Activity.RESULT_OK && data != null) {
            if (reqCode == 200) {
                Uri audioFileUri = data.getData();
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), audioFileUri.getPath().toString(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                play(audioFileUri);

            }
        }
   }

And this is how i'm playing the song:
public void play(Uri uri) {
        Intent intent = new Intent();
        intent.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
        intent.setDataAndType(uri, "audio/*");
        startActivity(intent);
    }

The music player crashes or reports that it can't play the particular file.
The uri i'm getting is: "/document/primary:abc.mp3"

Asclepias curassavica – Tropical Milkweed
Tropical Milkweed, also known as Blood flower, is a tender evergreen perennial in the dogbane and milkweed family. It is native to South America, but has naturalized worldwide in many tropical and subtropical areas. It has a much longer flowering period than the perennial milkweeds that are winter hardy in Michigan. Showy red-orange flowers bloom late spring through late autumn except in USDA Zones 9-11 where it is winter hardy. Grows best in light, rich, evenly moist, well-drained soil in full sun. Will tolerate light shade and some soil dryness. Hummingbirds, butterflies and bees are attracted to the flowers. Monarch butterflies lay eggs on this plant and the resulting larvae (caterpillars) use the plant leaves as a food source. Flowers are followed by long, narrow seed pods (3-4" long) which split open when ripe releasing silky tailed seeds for dispersal by wind. Stems and leaves exude a milky sap when cut or bruised. Plants can be poisonous to livestock. Consider wearing gloves when working with these plants because the milky sap is poisonous if ingested and can be toxic to human skin.

Chelone glabra – White Turtlehead
Host Plant – Baltimore Checkerspot
Spikes of elegant white flowers top shiny green foliage in late summer and early fall. Grows best in moist meadows, stream banks, and swamps. Favorite breeding site for the Baltimore Checkerspot Butterfly.
Asclepias incarnata – Swamp Milkweed
Swamp Milkweed occurs throughout most of the United States. It is a tall plant found in moist habitats such as wet meadows, floodplains, riverbanks, pond shores, stream banks, wet woods, swamps, and marshes, although it will also grow in drier areas such as prairies, fields, and roadsides. Swamp milkweed needs full sun or partial shade to flourish. Flowers are fragrant and very attractive to hummingbirds, butterflies and bees as a nectar source. Swamp milkweed is also an important food source for the larval stage of Monarch butterflies. The plants are deer resistant and heat tolerant. Also known as Rose Milkweed, Red Milkweed, and Marsh Milkweed.
Asclepias sullivantii – Sullivant's Milkweed / Prairie Milkweed
Winner of the 2015 Green Thumb Award for Best New Product!
Also known as Prairie Milkweed, Sullivant's Milkweed is a long-lived perennial and a well-behaved relative of Common Milkweed. Very similar in appearance, it is less aggressive and an excellent choice for butterfly gardens. Prairie Milkweed grows best in a sunny, medium to medium-moist garden. The pinkish, mauve flowers are very fragrant and attract hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. Sullivant's Milkweed is listed as 'threatened' in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan.
Available – May 2017
Asclepias incarnata – Cinderella Milkweed
'Cinderella' is a cultivar of native Asclepias incarnata (Swamp Milkweed) featuring pale pink, vanilla scented flower clusters. This milkweed occurs throughout most of the United States. It is a tall plant found in moist habitats such as wet meadows, floodplains, riverbanks, pond shores, stream banks, wet woods, swamps, and marshes, although it will also grow in drier areas such as prairies, fields, and roadsides. Swamp milkweed needs full sun or partial shade to flourish. Flowers are very attractive to butterflies and bees as a nectar source. Swamp milkweed is also an important food source for the larval stage of Monarch butterflies.The plants are deer resistant and heat tolerant.
Ceanothus americanus – New Jersey Tea
Host Plant – Eastern Tailed Blue / Spring Azure / Summer Azure
A deciduous shrub that grows just 3′ tall, the dried leaves of New Jersey Tea make a flavorful tea that was popular during the Revolutionary War. This extremely adaptable species can withstand inhospitable conditions because of massive, deep roots.
The white flower poms are attractive to butterflies, hummingbirds and pollinators.
New Jersey Tea is excellent as a shrub border and a is a fabulous addition for native plant gardens. It is also effective as a shrubby ground cover for hard-to-grow areas such as dry rocky slopes and banks. Easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Best in sandy loams or rocky soils with good drainage. Thick, woody, red roots go deep and help plant withstand droughty conditions, but make established shrubs difficult to transplant.
Grown in one quart pot with approximately 6" of top growth.
Plants grown without harmful pesticides and are safe for butterfly gardens.
Asclepias perennis – Aquatic Milkweed
Aquatic Milkweed is a petite white milkweed suitable for wet soils. It survives in water and will grow in light-sandy and medium-loamy soils. Native to stream sides it is generally most common in lightly shaded woodlands near streams. This little milkweed is a great performer, being shade tolerant and flowering spring through autumn.

What is the Book of Mormon Limited Geography Theory?
Question: What is the Limited Geography Theory and model?
Question: Has the Church ever promoted a Limited Geography model for the Book of Mormon?
Question: Why have Church leaders taught a hemispheric geography for the Book of Mormon rather than a limited one?
Question: Did Joseph Smith teach a hemispheric, rather than a limited, geography model for the Book of Mormon?
Roper: "Critics of the Book of Mormon have claimed that the limited geography is only a late, desperate attempt to defend the Book of Mormon"
Question: Was the Limited Geography model created in response to DNA claims?
The Limited Geography Theory (or LGT) is a non-traditional interpretation of the text, but one that has gained wide acceptance among the Book of Mormon scholars and readers over the last 60 years. It is based on a close reading of the text, which indicates that the lands inhabited by the Lehites could be traversed on foot in only a few weeks, making the area no larger than present-day California.
a limited model potentially restricts Book of Mormon peoples to an area which matches regions (e.g., such as Mesoamerica) known to have had high culture, city-building, written language, etc.
many Church members are unfamiliar with the basis for this model, having not paid close attention to issues of distance and travel times, since they have been more focused on the spiritual details of the Book of Mormon instead of its mundane details.
being a "newer" model, some claim that advocates of the LGT are 'changing the Church's story' about the Book of Mormon, even though the Church has been clear that it had no official or revealed Book of Mormon geography.
placing the model exactly becomes more difficult, since a smaller geography can 'fit' more than one potential location.
critics of the theory maintain that it uses mental gymnastics to explain away the mention of an "exceedingly great distance" in the text. Traditionally, it had been believed that there was an exceedingly great distance between the core of the Nephite domain and the Hill Cumorah in the area where the Nephites and Jaredites were destroyed.
Three frames from the Church-produced filmstrip "Ancient America Speaks." This filmstrip was used by missionaries in the late 1970s and early 80s. It clearly showed a Limited Geography for Book of Mormon lands with the "narrow neck" being the Isthmus of Panama.
Has the Church ever promoted a Limited Geography model for the Book of Mormon? The answer to that question is yes. The Church filmstrip "Ancient America Speaks" was heavily used by missionaries in the 1970s. It included a map which indicated that Nephite and Lamanite lands were distinct and separated by the Isthmus of Panama.
Joseph occasionally expressed ideas related to where the Book of Mormon occurred, which ranged from the area around New York to the lands of Central America. He never explicitly taught a specific geography, although he appears to have held a hemispheric view, just as many members today do. Joseph was as much an observer of the restoration as he was its principle player. When revelations were received, he had to use his physical faculties to interpret and understand them like the rest of us. And although he had a "front row seat" to many of the foundational events, he was often as astounded and surprised by the revelations he received as were those who received them from him, and he had to understand those things that were evidenced but not explicitly stated by revelation in the same way we all do. This includes of course the geographic setting for the Book of Mormon. A limited geography does not in any way contradict the revelations of Joseph Smith.
An examination of both Part 1 and Part 2 of Sorenson's 1984 Ensign articles quickly shows that they do not even contain the term "DNA". The articles focus on anthropological and geographical topics which support the Limited Geography model.
Main articles: Fallibility of prophets and Does LDS doctrine change?
When any man, except the President of the Church, undertakes to proclaim one unsettled doctrine, as among two or more doctrines in dispute, as the settled doctrine of the Church, we may know that he is not "moved upon by the Holy Ghost," unless he is acting under the direction and by the authority of the President.
Of these things we may have a confident assurance without chance for doubt or quibbling.
All over the Church you're being asked this: "What does the Church think about this or that?" Have you ever heard anybody ask that question? "What does the Church think about the civil rights legislation?" "What do they think about the war?" "What do they think about drinking Coca-Cola or Sanka coffee?" Did you ever hear that? "What do they think about the Democratic Party or ticket or the Republican ticket?" Did you ever hear that? "How should we vote in this forthcoming election?" Now, with most all of those questions, if you answer them, you're going to be in trouble. Most all of them. Now, it's the smart man that will say, "There's only one man in this church that speaks for the Church, and I'm not that one man."
I think nothing could get you into deep water quicker than to answer people on these things, when they say, "What does the Church think?" and you want to be smart, so you try to answer what the Church's policy is. Well, you're not the one to make the policies for the Church. You just remember what the Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians. He said, "For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified" (1 Corinthians 2:2). Well now, as teachers of our youth, you're not supposed to know anything except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. On that subject you're expected to be an expert. You're expected to know your subject. You're expected to have a testimony. And in that you'll have great strength. If the President of the Church has not declared the position of the Church, then you shouldn't go shopping for the answer.
Not every statement made by a Church leader, past or present, necessarily constitutes doctrine. A single statement made by a single leader on a single occasion often represents a personal, though well-considered, opinion, but is not meant to be officially binding for the whole Church. With divine inspiration, the First Presidency...and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles...counsel together to establish doctrine that is consistently proclaimed in official Church publications. This doctrine resides in the four "standard works" of scripture (the Holy Bible, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price), official declarations and proclamations, and the Articles of Faith. Isolated statements are often taken out of context, leaving their original meaning distorted.
Question 14: Do you believe that the President of the Church, when speaking to the Church in his official capacity is infallible?
Answer: We do not believe in the infallibility of man. When God reveals anything it is truth, and truth is infallible. No President of the Church has claimed infallibility.

We're so excited that you're interested in submitting a game to DYM. This guide will help you deliver a game that's high-quality and ready-to-use… for youth workers to play in ministries around the world!
Non-editable PowerPoint file (many youth workers use PowerPoint to run their games, please include a PowerPoint version of each game you create.) structured as such: title slide, instruction slide, question, answer, question, answer, etc.
Question slides: 001__Question.jpg, 002__Question.jpg, etc.
Note the two underscores. This way, the question slide will come before the answer slide.
Answer slides: 001_Answer.jpg, 002_Answer.jpg, etc.
Note the single underscore. This ensures the answer slide will come after the question slide.
Please do not include Q & A numbers on the slide. This will allow other youth workers to play as many as they'd like, in any order they'd like.
Any additional slides: (for example: Tie Breakers) should still have the three digit prefix (011_Tiebreaker__Question.jpg, 011_Tiebreaker_Answer.jpg).
Additional preview slides: (two question and answer slides that best preview your game plus one or two additional question slides, labeled YourGamepreview01.jpg, YourGamepreview02.jpg, and so on.
Once you've created all of your slides, throw them into a PowerPoint project (1920px by 1080px) structured as such: title slide, instruction slide, question, answer, question, answer, etc. Everything should be in order so all the customer has to do is open it and go!
Mac Users: If you have Keynote, you can create a new Keynote project (Widescreen), drop your slides into the project, and export as a PowerPoint file. This creates a non-editable PowerPoint file.
Note on Non-Editable PowerPoint Files: A non-editable file will preserve your font choice. If an end-user does not have the font used in the PowerPoint in your editable version, it will revert to a boring font - and nobody wants that. So submit a non-editable PowerPoint!
The Slides Folder should include all Question and Answer slides, named using the naming conventions listed above.
When working in Photoshop, drag your questions and answer layers into a folder in your layers panel. Title that folder, "Question 001". Then, once you've saved your "01__Question.jpg" and "001_Answer.jpg" files, you can duplicate that folder and rename the copy, "Question 002". Hide the original folder and edit the question and answers in the new folder. This will allow you to keep an original copy of each question in case you need to go back and fix something.
When possible, don't stop at 10 Questions/Answer slides--keep going to 20, or even 30. Then you can package them as separate editions (they would still need to have their own zip file with thumbnails that indicate which edition it is.) If a ministry enjoys a game, they're likely to look for a "Volume 2" in the DYM Store. It's best to just get 3 editions done in one sitting so they're off your plate. We'll schedule them to hit the store periodically. Once you have 3 or more versions of a game in the store, we can package it as a bundle deal.
Slide Driven Games - We recommend scaling down your game's logo and adding it to a corner of your slide. It just adds a little touch of branding to your game. Also, please avoid the following backgrounds: solid black, solid white, anything vibrant, and anything that makes the text hard to read. In most cases, adding a simple lens blur filter to a background image while slightly bringing down the brightness will make the text in the front pop out a little more.
Before you submit your game, please double-check spelling, the accuracy of answers, slide order, duplicate slides, and folder structure. Have a friend triple-check it for you! Your accuracy will help move your game through the DYM Pipeline quickly and easily.
*Please follow the same Folder Structure Guidelines as slide-driven games. You do not need to include a PowerPoint file as it will increase the file size significantly and slow the user's download time. Please be sure to include screenshots for the thumbnail and preview images.
Sometimes a simple idea can go a long way. If you have a great idea for an event, group game, or experience, please follow these notes to ensure that it's something other youth workers can use in their ministry.
As you prepare these games for submission, be sure to look at it through the lens of someone who's not played before--write clear instructions and include a supply list. The more detail you give, the easier it will be for a youth worker to execute.
Some ideas require props, materials, outside apps, etc. Always include links to the necessary resources. If you'd like, create an Amazon Shopping List and include the link with your submission, it'll make playing your game that much easier!
"A picture is worth a thousand words" is a popular phrase for a reason. Sometimes, a written description just isn't as helpful as a photo. If you created a unique way to play your game, take a picture of the set-up and include it with your Word document.
If you have supporting graphics or videos, please include them in your submission. Even something as simple as a title slide makes the game far more valuable.
Some youth groups have 10 kids, others have 400. If "Blindfolded Crowbar Toss" game needed 15 crowbars for your 100-person group, make a note that smaller youth groups can get away with 8 crowbars.
Sidekick files ($4) Sidekick files are the easiest way to create beautiful, customizable games in minutes! CLICK HERE to find details on how to submit a sidekick file.


The curriculum is organized around the concepts of caring, safety, critical thinking and a professional approach to practice. The initial courses build from your self-reflection on interpersonal communication skills and lifestyle influences on health and wellness. Subsequent courses incorporate anatomy, physiology and common health challenges (including cognitive challenges). You demonstrate your understanding of course content initially in laboratory practice and later in both residential care and community-based settings.
In addition to the self-paced theory courses, there are three practice-based courses, available to HCA program students only: HLTH 1155, Personal Care and Assistance (Skills Practicum); HLTH 1251, Practice Experience in Home Support and/or Group Settings; and HLTH 1301, Practice Experience in Multi-Level or Complex Care.
The Health Care Assistant courses meet the requirements for registration with the BC Care Aide and Community Health Worker Registry and follow the 2015 BC provincial HCA curriculum guidelines.
When applying to this program, please complete a Program Admission form.
It is important that as a prospective HCA you demonstrate a caring and interested attitude toward older adults and physically challenged persons and be willing to work with these clients and their families to encourage independence. Flexibility and maturity are desirable characteristics of an HCA.
HLTH 1155 consists of 75 hours of practice (in the lab and practice setting) over two weeks, so as to meet the BC Care Aide and Community Health Worker Registry and the 2015 BC provincial curriculum guidelines.
Join a TRU Campus HCA cohort offered in Kamloops, Williams Lake and region (availability dependent upon vacant seats in the face-to-face program). Courses typically start in January and May, but can occur at other times throughout the year.
Join a BC public post-secondary Institution HCA-equivalent practice course (located throughout BC and as space permits). View a list of approved BC educational institutions that offer recognized HCA programs.
You must have successfully completed all core knowledge (theory) courses and met all admission requirements before you can register for any practicum courses.
Practicum courses are held in BC and are available to BC residents only. If you want to complete this program but reside outside BC, you may participate on the condition that you can make appropriate practicum arrangements near you. However, you must take both HLTH 1155 and HLTH 1301 in Kamloops in an instructor-led group if you have no experience or volunteer work in a residential care facility.
Practicum courses may be limited by geographic location, time of year, space and enrolment. Practicum placements cannot be guaranteed in your home region.
Punctual attendance and active participation are required.
You are responsible for all costs associated with practicum courses and activities.
Also, before you register in a course not listed on the OL website, you must apply for a letter of permission). Otherwise, you may find either that course credits cannot be applied to your program or you must pay a transcript reassessment fee.

Ainimal Ferm (Inglis: Animal Farm) is an allegorical an dystopian novella bi George Orwell, first published in Ingland on 17 August 1945. Accordin tae Orwell, the beuk reflects events leadin up tae the Roushie Revolution o 1917 an then on intae the Stalinist era o the Soviet Union. Orwell, a democratic socialist, wis a creetic o Joseph Stalin an hostile tae Moscow-directit Stalinism, an attitude that wis creetically shaped bi his experiences during the Spaingie Ceevil War. The Soviet Union, he believed, haed acome a brutal dictatorship, biggit upon a cult o personality an enforced bi a reign o terror. In a letter tae Yvonne Davet, Orwell describit Ainimal Ferm as a satirical tale against Stalin ("un conte satirique contre Staline"), an in his essay "Why I Write" (1946), wrote that Ainimal Ferm wis the first beuk in which he tried, wi full consciousness o whit he wis daein, "tae fuse poleetical purpose an airteestic purpose intae ane whole".

Q: Erlang equivalent to if else I have 2 parts of code I want to execute. Both are conditionals
if Value1 < N do something

else if Value1 >= N do something

if Value2 < N do something

else if Value2 >= N do something

I want at one statement of each to execute.
How does the if work in erlang? there is no else. I use multiple guards, but that looks like I have 4 if statements. in groups of 2.
if some condition
code;

if other condition
code

end.

I get a syntax error.

A: Remember if in Erlang has a value to return, and it's an expression. It's not that if like in C or Java.
If you want to do something for a value, the code should be something like this;
if
  % do something and get the value
  X >= Val -> Something;
  % for doing something otherwise and get the value
  true -> Else_than_the_Something
end.

See Section for the if expression of Erlang Reference Manual for the further details.

A: First of all, I recommend you to get used to use 'case' statement, because of 'if' conditions restricted to guard expressions:
case custom_call(A) of
  1 -> do1(A);
  2 -> do2(A)
end.

There is one more way to do conditional execution besides 'if' and 'case' that works starting from R13:
  1> N =10.
  10
  2> ((N > 10) andalso more).
  false
  3> ((N == 10) andalso equals).
  equals

A: The form for an if is:
if
    <guard 1> -> <body1> ;
    <guard 2> -> <body2> ;
    ...
end

It works trying the guards in if-clauses in top-down order (this is defined) until it reaches a test which succeeds, then the body of that clause is evaluated and the if expression returns the value of the last expression in the body. So the else bit in other languages is baked into it. If none of the guards succeeds then an if_clause error is generated. A common catch-all guard is just true which always succeeds, but a catch-all can be anything which is true.
The form for a case is:
case <expr> of
    <pat 1> -> <body1> ;
    <pat 2> -> <body2> ;
    ...
end

It works by first evaluating  and then trying to match that value with patterns in the case-clauses in op-down order (this is defined) until one matches, then the body of that clause is
evaluated and the case expression returns the value last expression in the body. If no pattern matches then a case_clause error is generated.
Note that if and case are both expressions (everything is an expression) so they both must return values. That is one reason why there is no default value if nothing succeeds/matches. Also to force you to cover all options; this is especially important for case. if is just a degenerate case of case so it inherited it. There is a bit of history of if in the Erlang Rationale which you can find on trapexit.org under user contributions.

A: Erlang doesn't allow you to have an if without a true statement option. Whether or not this is something that is a true statement or an actual true is up to you, but it is commonplace to have your true be the else in other languages.
if
    some_condition -> some_code;
    some_other_condition -> some_other_code;
    true -> else_code
end.

See the "What the If?" section on this page for more on this.

Felix Grundy (ur. 11 września 1777 w hrabstwie Berkeley, zm. 19 grudnia 1840 w Nashville) – amerykański polityk.

Życiorys
Urodził się 11 września 1777 roku na terenie hrabstwa Berkeley, a trzy lata później jego rodzina przeniosła się do Kentucky. Uczęszczał do szkoły w Bardstown, a następnie studiował nauki prawne, został przyjęty do palestry i otworzył prywatną praktykę. W latach 1800–1805 zasiadał w legislaturze stanowej Kentucky, a rok po zakończeniu kadencji został wybrany do stanowego Sądu Najwyższego. W 1807 roku zrezygnował z funkcji i przeniósł się do Nashville. W 1810 roku został wybrany Izby Reprezentantów, z ramienia Partii Demokratyczno-Republikańskiej, gdzie zasiadał do czasu rezygnacji w roku 1814. W latach 1819–1825 ponownie zasiadał w legislaturze stanowej iw czasie kadencji przyczynił się do polubownego ustalenia granicy pomiędzy Kentucky a Tennessee. W 1829 roku wygrał wybory uzupełniające do Senatu, mające obsadzić wakat po rezygnacji Johna Eatona. W 1838 roku zrezygnował z mandatu, gdyż prezydent Martin Van Buren zaproponował mu objęcie stanowiska prokuratora generalnego. Rok później zrezygnował ze stanowiska w rządzie federalnym, na rzecz ponownego wyboru do izby wyższej Kongresu. Mandat senatora sprawował do śmierci, która nastąpiła 19 grudnia 1840 roku w Nashville.

Police car on 999 call in crash with cyclists
By Joe Riddle @journaljoe News Editor
TWO cyclists needed hospital treatment after a police car answering a 999 call knocked them off their bike on Friday.
They suffered minor injuries after the crash in Queens Road, Brighton, at 5.48pm.
A 20-year-old man and a 19-year-old woman were taken to the Royal Sussex County Hospital.
They were discharged later that evening after treatment.
The driver of the police Ford Mondeo was uninjured.
The unit was answering an emergency call at the time, using blue lights and sirens.
Part of Queens Road was closed while the incident was dealt with and was reopened shortly before 8pm.
Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to report online at sussex.police.uk/appealresponse or call 101 quoting Operation Elgar.
The bicycle was not a tandem.
The matter has been advised to the Independent Office for Police Conduct.


CHANTILLY, VA, March 28, 2017 — Citizant, a provider of Agile software development, DevOps automation, and business transformation and management services to the U.S. government, was independently appraised at CMMI Maturity Level 3 (ML 3) for both Development and Services.
Citizant's multi-model appraisal, led by David Quinn of MOSAIC Technologies Corp., demonstrated that the company operates both software development and services projects at a high level of quality. Citizant's long history of adhering to best practices of CMMI, ISO 9001, and other quality standards has led to the company's frequent government satisfaction (CPAR) ratings of 5.0 out of 5.0 on complex programs that require both development and services excellence.
Less than 5 percent of all U.S. businesses with a registered CMMI appraisal – and only two dozen small government IT contractors – are appraised at ML3 or higher for both CMMI-DEV and CMMI-SVC. Citizant remains at the forefront of CMMI development and adoption by supporting the CMMI Next Generation Architecture Working Group. In addition, Citizant plans continued maturity under ISO quality standards in 2017, with an upgraded certification to ISO 9001:2015 and new certification under ISO 20000 for IT service management.
