Trebel Music App Offers Free Music Downloads, Student-Friendly Campus Graphics – The Rocky Mountain Collegian
Joseph J. Guillen	Posted on September 23, 2015
Imagine a free music app that lets you download an unlimited number of songs without taking up storage space on the phone – the Trebel Music app, from M&M Music, has developed a new system for students that lets them do just that .
Characteristics of the Trebel Music app, such as virtual currency and campus trending graphics, allow students to interact with music in a unique way.

Trebel allows the user to connect to their university campus and see the trends among their peers. Currently, trending music at Colorado State University includes The Weeknd, Taylor Swift, and Justin Bieber. CSU was one of the few universities chosen to help Trebel launch the app.
The Trebel model, according to chief executive Gary Mekikian, uses advertisements to generate income so that students can listen to and download music for free. Users of the app earn "virtual currency" by searching for and downloading music.
"It's an app that was designed and developed by young people for young people," Mekikian said. "We have created a system where young people can have the music they need when they can least afford it. "
While the user is downloading music, an advertisement is served which generates coins which can then be used to listen to music. This is a system unique to the Trebel application.
"It's like a game," Mekikian said. "So when you play Candy Crush, you earn points and you can use those points to buy virtual goods. In this case, the virtual good is music.
With unlimited music, users can use the interface to instantly watch music videos correlated with the downloaded songs, while accessing the lyrics.

"It's a bit like Spotify in a way," said Fahey Zink, a sociology student. "You can upload your own music and set up your own playlists, but that connects more to a college campus base. "
According to Mekikian, the catalog of music that Trebel presents to its users continues to grow and has reached underground and mainstream artists as well.
"I love the amount of music they have," Zink said. "But at the moment I'm so used to Spotify, but I feel like once I get the hang of it, I might change."
Some other students, such as Maria Alcorn, major in business, have a different take on the app.
"I think it's a good concept," Alcorn said. "But you have to watch the commercials for Trebel, and I don't like watching the commercials. I feel like it's a waste of time.
CSU students can download the app using the link www.trebel.io/dl, or connect with Trebel on Twitter and Instagram.

Secure Folder is a handy utility that allows you to hide, lock and/or encrypt your folders in a very easy and intuitive way. The program uses a robust password protection to ensure that you are the only one who can access your data. Besides, for the folder encryption, Secure Folder uses state-of-the-art 256-bit AES technology. The program can also prevent your folders from being copied, moved, or deleted.
This utility offers a very simple user interface, whose visual design is in fact a bit "out-of-date". The first time you run the program, it prompts you to create a master password, complete with a recovery e-mail address and a hint. From now on, you will need this password to access the program and, therefore, your protected folders. Once you access it, you will see the list of your protected folders, to which you can add new passwords for protection. To do this, you need to specify the protection mode, which can be any combination of the three modes provided: lock, hide, and encrypt. Optionally, you can also change the colour of the protected folder icon.
After you have created a list of protected folders, you can select one or more elements and perform several actions on them, like remove, secure, or release them. You can browse the contents of a protected folder by simply double-clicking on it. However, if you do so, you need to be very careful, as the program releases the folder to allow you to browse its contents but does not re-protect it automatically afterwards. Finally, you can add new folders to your list and refresh it at any moment.
There is a special feature that, in my opinion, makes Secure Folder pretty different from most other similar programs. It includes about ten extra tools that are very helpful, although they have nothing to do with folder protection. Among these tools, I can mention the Application Blocker, the Privacy Sweep tool, the Screen Capture tool, the Start-up Manager, the Website Blocker, and the pen drive write-protection tool.
In conclusion, thanks to the strong and safe protection methods offered by Secure Folder, and the amount of helpful extra tools it includes, I consider you should definitely give Secure Folder a try if you are planning to acquire a folder-protection tool.

Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is caused when bacteria in plaque (a sticky, colorless film that forms in the mouth) builds up between the gums and teeth. When the bacteria begin to grow, the gums surrounding the tooth can become inflamed.
If left untreated, this inflammation can cause the gums and supporting bone structure to deteriorate. This can lead to gum recession or even tooth loss. In addition, research has shown that gum disease may be associated with other diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease.
Luckily, periodontal disease can be preventable.
See a periodontist. Get an annual comprehensive periodontal evaluation (CPE) from a dental professional. A CPE looks at your teeth, plaque level, gums, bite, bone structure and other risk factors for periodontal disease. Identifying symptoms of gum disease early is key to protecting your teeth and gums.

Midshipman First Class (senior) Max Allen, 25, of Chesterfield, Va.,was identified as the victim of the fatal automobile accident that occurred on Naval Academy grounds over the weekend.
Midshipman Allen was an oceanography major at the Naval Academy and was a member of the 1st Company within the Brigade. He was a member of the Club Soccer Team and the Italian-American and Japanese-American clubs at the academy. He attended high school at the Haverford School in Pennsylvania and also attended Virginia Tech for two years prior to being inducted into the Naval Academy. Midshipman Allen was slated to serve in the aviation community as a Naval Flight Officer after graduation and commissioning this May.
"The Naval Academy is deeply saddened by the tragic death of Midshipman Max Allen. It is painful to lose a member of our Naval Academy family, and as we attempt to better understand this tremendous loss, we offer our deepest condolences to Max's family, close friends, classmates and company mates during this extremely difficult time," said Naval Academy Superintendent Vice Adm. Michael Miller.
Midshipman Allen's white SUV was discovered Sunday afternoon in College Creek near the Nimitz library on the Naval Academy grounds. An Anne Arundel County Fire Department Dive Team was dispatched to the scene to search the vehicle, and discovered a body underwater near the seawall. Allen's body was recovered from the water Sunday evening.
The vehicle was recovered Monday morning and is being examined by NCIS and Naval Support Activity Annapolis Police as part of the ongoing investigation into the cause and time of the accident.
Grief counseling services and support are made available to midshipmen, faculty and staff through chains of command, our chaplains, and the Midshipmen Development Center.

Q: Using XRDP and KDE on openSUSE_13.2 I setup a computer with openSuSE 13.2 and KDE.
Now I'm trying to access it from Windows PC via RDP. After my first not successful tries ( see : https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/509719-xrdp-on-openSuSE-13-2-login-failed?p=2728400#post2728400 ) now it works with icewm as window manager but I want to use KDE.
Currently I use xrd 0.6.1 from the LTSP-repo ( http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/ltsp/openSUSE_13.2/ )
I installed tightvnc as mentioned in some forums.
The xrdp.ini contains:

and the startwm.sh contains:

#start the window manager
wm_start()
{
  for WindowManager in $SESSIONS
  do
    which $WindowManager
    if test $? -eq 0
    then
      echo "Starting $WindowManager"
      $WindowManager
      return 0
    fi
  done
  return 0
}

if I change the SESSION to startkde or mate-session or gnome-session I get the message:
    connecting to 127.0.0.1 5910
    error - problem connection
or just a black screen (gnome)
In the logfiles (/var/log/xrdp.log /var/log/xrdp-sesman.log ) nothing unusal appears.
What am I missing here. Some people seems to run it? But how?

"There are 'global implications' to the historic announcement President Trump has made declaring Jerusalem as Israel's capital and instructing that preparations be made to move the US embassy to Jerusalem, Michael Oren, former Israeli Ambassador to the United States says. Oren, who is currently Deputy Minister in the Israeli Prime Minister's Office emphasized that in doing so Trump has fulfilled his campaign pledge and "When President Trump stands by his word, other countries in the world, such as Iran and North Korea take notice."
Oren said Trump is sending a message to the Palestinians that when you leave the negotiating table, "you pay the price," which is what happens generally in the business world. Oren noted that up to now (under the Obama administration, for example) when the Palestinians left the table , "they were rewarded rather than paying a price."
Dr. Eran Lerman,former deputy for foreign policy and international affairs at the National Security Council in the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, made a similar point. He said that up to now PA President Abbas "envisioned a future in which Israel wold be coerced" by the United States and the international community into "a total withdrawal" from the territories , including "a partition of Jerusalem, and some return of refugees," and this declaration was meant to bring Abbas back into reality to let him know that a solution will not be imposed on Israel by the United States.
Oren said that the Palestinians had an opportunity with Trump's Jerusalem declaration, which hopefully they wouldn't miss as they have missed other opportunities. He said that rather than turning to violence, Palestinians "could use this as an opportunity" to ask Trump to "make a gesture to them just as he has made a gesture to us" and Trump will deliver, as he has shown that he is a man of his word.
Oren said that the final result of negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians should not be "pre-judged. He said , The Palestinian Authority should come to the table, and with "creativity and goodwill" they could advance the peace process.
Lerman added that although Arab states have condemned Trump's Jerusalem declaration, "None of this will translate into a major Arab response," he said, Although states such as Egypt and Jordan and Saudia Arabia have denounced the decision publicly, "at the end of the day there's no action they intend to take" (such as breaking off diplomatic relations with the United States.).
Lerman said"The Saudis have more important issues [ to deal with ] than where will [ US ]Ambassador [to Israel] Friedman be eating his breakfast" in a year or a few years from now.

Aleksandr Agafonov (Александр Агафонов), (ur. 22 kwietnia 1975) – uzbecki pływak, trzykrotny olimpijczyk.

Występy na igrzyskach olimpijskich
Aleksandr Agafonov po raz pierwszy wystartował na igrzyskach olimpijskich w Atlancie. Rywalizował jedynie w sztafecie 4 × 200 m w stylu dowolnym. Płynął, jako drugi zawodnik. Uzyskał czas 1:56,44 m a sztafeta uzyskała czas 7:40,60 m, co dało jej 4. miejsce w biegu eliminacyjnym. Wynik ten nie pozwolił na awans do dalszej rywalizacji. Sztafeta została sklasyfikowana łącznie na 12 miejscu.

Na igrzyskach w Sydney Agafonov wystąpił na dystansie 100 m w stylu dowolnym uzyskując czas 52,58 s i zajmując 3. miejsce w swoim biegu eliminacyjnym. Wynik ten nie pozwolił mu na dalszą rywalizację. Został sklasyfikowany dopiero na 54 miejscu.

Ostatni raz Agafonov wystąpił na igrzyskach w Atenach. Podobnie jak w Sydney konkurował na dystansie 100 m w stylu dowolnym. Uzyskał 4 rezultat w swoim wyścigu eliminacyjnym z czasem 52,92 s. Wynik ten nie pozwolił na awans do kolejnej rundy. Łącznie został sklasyfikowany na 57 miejscu.

Q: Is there a performance difference on T-SQL SET syntax?
Possible Duplicate:
Speed of SELECT vs. SET in T-SQL

I'm using SQL Server 2008 R2
When I use
DECLARE @out INT

Which is faster:
SELECT TOP 1 @out = myCol FROM myTable

or
SET @out = (SELECT TOP 1 myCol FROM myTable)

What if myCol is Primary key, Index or regular column?

Edit: (as for mark-schultheiss comment)
The thing is, I'm looking for the causes of delays.
for example:
3x SET = (SELECT .. FROM .. WHERE) is slower than 1 SELECT with 3 assignments like:
SELECT TOP 1 @out1 = myCol1, @out2 = myCol2, @out3 = myCol3
FROM myHugeTable WHERE myCol4 = 7

where myCol1 is the PK, the myCol2 is IX, myCol3 is a regular column, and myCol4 is non unique index
so, are there known issues causing delays which one can avoid?

Since we're tech nerds, we can tell you that a picture is actually worth a lot more than a thousand words. And because of this, we need to pay attention to our social media profile picture. Snap decisions are routinely made on which photo to use, and these are not always putting our best face forward (yeah, tons of bad puns in this one). Let's give the hiring manager what they want. Fair or not, this picture will help determine if you are a fit for the hiring company. Recruiters don't want to take the chance that they could be bringing a "suit" into a tech startup or a Lisbeth Salander to Goldman Sachs.
A picture of the candidate where it is obvious the picture was cropped from a group shot of friends.
The candidate is standing in front of a tourist monument like the Eiffel Tower. The monument takes up the full frame and the candidates are just a small speck.
Picture of the candidate with a friend or colleagues in front of the sign for an industry conference. The hiring manager doesn't know which person in the picture is you.
The picture that is worth zero words is the lack of a picture. If the box where the headshot belongs is blank, we lose momentum. This may not be the intention, but a lack of a picture conveys, "I have something to hide", or "I am resistant to social media". Both could be showstoppers to certain companies and recruiters.
So let's create a 1000 word picture.
In the same way, a profile picture can ruin a candidates chances, a good to a great picture can create momentum. A profile picture on LinkedIn should look like a picture that could be posted on the company website. Take a look at any company About page. Most companies will have headshots of the leadership team. Smaller companies will have headshots of the entire company. Your headshot should fit this paradigm.
You don't have to be a model to take a great picture unless you are looking to be picked up by a modeling agency. A professional, high-resolution photo won't raise any eyebrows or cast any undue doubt.
Headshots don't need to be expensive. One easy workaround is to have a friend take 15 – 20 pictures of you in front of a neutral background. A brick wall, green trees, or neutral colored wall will work. Using a modern phone, take the picture in portrait mode which will focus on you and blur the background ever so slightly. This makes you pop out of the picture.
The emphasis should be on taking these 15-20 pictures and varying the angles. Professional photographers don't just take a single picture of their subject looking straight into the camera. Professionals take a couple dozen pictures and adjust their angle to find "the one". We are professionals and should treat our job search as such.
If you are looking for a new position, clean up your Facebook and Instagram profiles. If there is a picture of you partying, looking questionable post-party, or looking questionable getting ready to party, your level of judgment will be in question whether you like it or not. Remember, our social media profile is a window into the real you. We all have photos on social media that may look questionable to an outsider, but could be totally benign or part of an inside joke between us and our friends. While you're searching, it's better not to take the chance. Make sure what an employer sees when they take their peek is what you'd like to project.
Key Takeaway: Your profile picture matters. Because it is so easy to obtain a high-quality professional looking photo with modern phones, the bar has risen. Make sure you are rising with it. The devil is in the details; focus on them and you will do well!

Fold the filter along the crimped edge and place it inside in the dripper. Set the dripper on top of your mug.
Pour hot water around the inside of the filter for about 5 seconds. Rinsing the filter helps seal it inside the dripper and also gets rid of any papery taste.
If using pre-ground coffee skip to Step 5. Weigh out your whole bean coffee and grind it on a medium-fine setting. See our guide on how to grind your coffee for reference.
Pour your ground coffee into the filter. Gently shake the dripper back and forth to settle the grounds, then set it back on top of your mug. Make a half-inch indent in the middle of the coffee bed with your finger.
Let sit until your timer reads 45 seconds.
Begin pouring continuously in small circles - about the size of a quarter - around the center of the dripper. Try to keep the water level steady below the rim of the dripper, and avoid pouring around the edges of the filter. Stop pouring once your timer reads 1:30 or your scale reads 300 grams.
Allow all the water to drain through the filter. If your final time was longer than 2:15, your grind was probably too fine. If your final time was shorter than 1:45, your grind was probably too coarse. Make a small adjustment to the grind next time you brew - practice makes perfect!


When George Gamow and Ralph Alpher were developing the Big Bang Theory (the actual theory, not the T.V. show), they needed a term for the bizarre form of matter they predicted would have existed in the early universe. They ended up picking the awkward-sounding word ylem.
As a word nerd, I'm compelled to make two points of clarification before we can move on. First, I hate when people cite "Webster's dictionary" as a source. Webster is not a trademarked name (Merriam-Webster is), so anybody can stick "Webster" on a dictionary and make it sound authoritative. Second, ylem does not come from Hebrew; the etymology traces back to the Greek word for matter (this according to my favorite real dictionary, The New American Heritage Dictionary, Fifth Edition).
Okay, word nerd rant over.
Aristotle did have something to say about the "fundamental matter" from which the elements formed. By elements, of course, he meant earth, fire, wind, and water. Aristotle's term for this was proto-hyle. Over the millennia since Aristotle's time, the hyle part of proto-hyle changed phonetically (Latin added an m, French dropped the h), and thus ylem entered English as a philosophy term.
Gamow and Alpher then turned it into a scientific term. Regardless of which dictionary they were looking at, for them it meant the primordial matter that existed after the Big Bang but before the chemical elements formed.
In a sense, this isn't too far from the proto-hyle Aristotle was talking about. Except by elements, Gamow and Alpher meant things like hydrogen and helium, not earth or fire. Also, they could be a whole lot more specific about what ylem actually was: a highly charged plasma of protons, neutrons, and electrons that took roughly 400,000 years to cool off before it could start combining as atoms.

Actually, kinda cool to find out about another one. When I google "New American Heritage", I get a couple of different sites claiming to be the "American Heritage" dictionary, although I'm guessing the Houghton Mifflin Harcourt site is the real one.
Not at all. Merriam-Webster is a fine dictionary and the proper successor to Noah Webster's work. Webster's dictionaries (without the Merriam) are taking advantage of a lapsed trademark to capitalize on Merriam-Webster's good reputation.
As a matter of personal preference, the New American Heritage Dictionary (you guessed right, it's the Houghton Mifflin Harcourt one… didn't know there were others) is my dictionary of choice. I like reading the opinions of their "usage panel" to get a sense of how the language is currently evolving.
Or at least, how it was evolving as of 2011. As soon as there's a sixth edition, I'll be buying it to get the updated usage opinions.
On Merriam-Webster, thanks! Hopefully you picked up that my first sentence above was tongue-in-cheek.
I saw the usage panel mentioned when I visited the AHDictionary site, but couldn't find the panel itself. Is it something only available to paying members?
Yeah, I picked it up. No worries!
I guess being a member would let you see the usage panel stuff. I have a physical copy, so I don't really know much about how their membership stuff works.
.. and again, the art work makes me laugh.
Yay! I had a hard time figuring out what I wanted to draw for this, so I'm glad you liked it.
Your blog is twice as hard… a topic and some artwork.
The art is the fun part for me. It's the research that really bogs me down.
Words and their meanings are important! I salute you, sir.
Thank you! And same to you. Your series was fantastic!

Juan Mata states his prediction for Huddersfield v Man United
The Manchester United star insists the Red Devils are optimistic about picking up three points at Huddersfield Town

Juan Mata insists he is optimistic Manchester United can claim three points at Huddersfield on Saturday.
The Red Devils will be looking to make a swift return to winning ways at the promoted side next weekend,
Manchester United settled for a point at Anfield last weekend after holding Liverpool to a goalless draw at Anfield.
The 20-time English champions were criticised for showing a lack of adventure on Merseyside as Manchester United secured a goalless draw at their rivals for the second successive season.
Manchester United are in second place in the Premier League table but two points behind current leaders Manchester City following their dour stalemate.
Jose Mourinho's men have effortlessly dispatched most of their other Premier League opponents so far this term following six wins and two draws.
Manchester United midfielder Mata is confident Manchester United will pick up three points at promoted side Huddersfield Town on Sunday afternoon.
"Next weekend we will be back in the Premier League with our third away game in a row, this time against Huddersfield," Mata wrote on his personal blog.
"I've never played in that stadium so I will have to add it to the 'Matamundi'.
"Again, we will have to be really competitive there, but the truth is we are doing it this season and that's why I said above that I feel optimistic."
Manchester United finished in sixth place in the Premier League table but won the EFL Cup and the Europa League to secure a return to the Champions League.
The Red Devils signed Benfica defender Victor Lindelof, Everton striker Romelu Lukaku and Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic in the summer transfer window.

For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life and above and beyond the call of duty as the leader of a special reconnaissance element with Naval Special Warfare task unit Afghanistan on 27 and 28 June 2005. While leading a mission to locate a high-level anti-coalition militia leader, Lieutenant Murphy demonstrated extraordinary heroism in the face of grave danger in the vicinity of Asadabad, Konar Province, Afghanistan. On 28 June 2005, operating in an extremely rugged enemy-controlled area, Lieutenant Murphy's team was discovered by anti-coalition militia sympathizers, who revealed their position to Taliban fighters. As a result, between 30 and 40 enemy fighters besieged his four member team. Demonstrating exceptional resolve, Lieutenant Murphy valiantly led his men in engaging the large enemy force. The ensuing fierce firefight resulted in numerous enemy casualties, as well as the wounding of all four members of the team. Ignoring his own wounds and demonstrating exceptional composure, Lieutenant Murphy continued to lead and encourage his men. When the primary communicator fell mortally wounded, Lieutenant Murphy repeatedly attempted to call for assistance for his beleaguered teammates. Realizing the impossibility of communicating in the extreme terrain, and in the face of almost certain death, he fought his way into open terrain to gain a better position to transmit a call. This deliberate, heroic act deprived him of cover, exposing him to direct enemy fire. Finally achieving contact with his headquarters, Lieutenant Murphy maintained his exposed position while he provided his location and requested immediate support for his team. In his final act of bravery, he continued to engage the enemy until he was mortally wounded, gallantly giving his life for his country and for the cause of freedom. By his selfless leadership, Lieutenant Murphy reflected great credit upon himself and upheld the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service."
In addition to the Medal of Honor, his military awards and his inscription on the Hall of Heroes in the Pentagon, Lt. Murphy has received at least 4 other honors between May 7, 2006 and June 2009.
On May 7, 2006, on what would have been his 30th birthday, Murphy's hometown dedicated the Michael P. Murphy Memorial Park; formerly Lake Ronkonkoma Park. The park contains a black granite wall dedicated to the men lost in Operation Red Wing, with each member's name inscribed. A black granite stone embedded in the plaza bears the picture of Murphy and his Medal of Honor.
It never amazes me at the price of the lives some men sacrifice so that others can have the opportunity to live. I am so proud to be an American!
Wow, that kind of courage just amazes me and gets my utmost admiration. I salute Lieutenant Michael P Murphy.
Thank you for sharing what this young man did for his teammates.
I "stumbled" upon your blog from one of the ones i follow. I believe there may be a few things you could teach this young man, so i have added your blog to the ones i follow.
I thank God for men like this. They represent what America is supposed to be.
I cannot understand why our liberal media is so afraid to report more on the stories like this one. Oh yeah. I just answered my own question. The "liberal media".
Thank you so much for keeping us informed.
I long for the day when people do not have to die like this to protect my freedom- when peace will reign. To men like these, I owe a debt I cannot pay.
If you're gonna tell a lie. Tell a whopper.


Shortly after winning Wimbledon for the second time in his career, tennis star Andy Murray received another treat that many a Sherlock fan would kill for – he got to meet Benedict Cumberbatch!
Upon meeting, Cumberbatch and Murray express just how much they are fans of each others' work, before Murray asks the actor what he is up to now. As us Sherlockians all know, Benedict replies that he is working on Sherlock Series Four… Which gets Murray just as excited as if he had won Wimbledon again!

Living lightly over the Earth
I borrowed the title of this column from the pastoral letter issued by the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines after the EDSA Revolution in 1986. It told the faithful on what was happening then to our environment and the required action needed to abate the further deterioration of the Earth.
After over 30 years, such message is even more meaningful, especially so with the uncertainty of our times with the Covid-19 pandemic.
In the Philippines, Covid-19 cases are increasing so much so that the association of medical doctors has called on the government to re-impose stricter community quarantine amidst the high volume of virus contamination after the easing down of the lockdown in the country. Our health practitioners are expressing apprehension that the capacity of medical workers, facilities, equipment, and supplies may come to the point of saturation, and it is detrimental to the health security of the country.
While preparing this article, the government seems so reluctant to follow such recommendation given the economic letdown brought and is still bringing by this pandemic, which was suspected to originate from a wildlife's corona virus.
During the early weeks of the outbreak, many countries were at a standstill and the world economies have almost ceased with the imposition of restrictions in transportation, productions, and people's movement. It was a period that I viewed as a healing time for the Earth, as the air was relatively clean with the reduction of pollution, minimal disturbances and uses of natural resources, and the wildlife has been noticed to move freely and undisturbed, among other indicators.
A number of experts has already pointed out that with the changes and disruptions of the Earth's natural cycles, this Covid-19 would not be the last pandemic that the world may experience, in addition to the grave threat of climate change, with tremendous impacts already felt in various parts of the world. With the grim scenarios, the call of the CBCP more than three decades ago is more apt and necessary for us to live lightly over the Earth.
The global consumerism, production, commercialism, and technological advancement have tremendously increased since after the World War II, plus the blooming population globally. They have brought about rapid exploitation of the Earth's natural resources to the extent of creating damaging and irreversible impacts to our natural ecosystems. The CBCP once articulated that we need not be an expert to see what is happening to our environment, like massive deforestation and pollution, destruction of our marine and coastal resources, deteriorating quality of our soil due to high volume use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, the introduction of plastic and non-biodegradable products that are creating so much solid waste pollution, excessive and unabated exploitation of our land and mineral resources, and the threatening of the existence of various and important wildlife resources, among others. All these are much pronounced in our times today.
Such enormous environmental issues, concerns, and challenges could not be compartmentalized to the governance aspect of the world, particularly in the Philippines. Our government in the past and, at present, is purely biased toward the utilization of natural resources with little regard to conservation and wise use or the so-called sustainable use. We have numerous laws on environmental protection and biodiversity conservation, and yet they are hardly applied or being undermined when resource utilization comes into the picture. While there were and there are still conservation efforts, they could hardly surpass the damages being created to our natural environment.
During the lockdown, the term "essential" became widely used and practiced. Some of its applications were essential travels, essential movements, essential commodities, essential productions, and essential transactions and interactions, and we have survived, although we will also admit that all of us underwent difficulties, while others experienced food shortage, hunger, displacement, and dislocation.
Unfortunately, thousands have been infected with the virus and thousands of lives were also lost, and to date, we don't know who will be the next victim, because it seems we are going back to what it was used to be, instead of just prioritizing what are essentials for us to live and survive.*

Q: How to keep changed status of CheckBoxList? I know the title is vague, so I'll fully explain here my problem..
So, I'm running VB.net 3.5. I have a dynamic list of server names, and I want to put them in a CheckBoxList. The list is populated and, using that same list, I make a graph of the performance for each server listed. I want to be able to check and uncheck the checkboxes representing servers and, when I lick an update button, it'll create a new graph and graph only the servers that are still checked. I noticed that the page still loads before the button click is handled, so the CheckBoxList will repopulate itself before being able to read the current CheckBoxList. Does anybody have any input on this?
This is my load. And I populate my checkboxlist inside ShowView()
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
  If Not Me.IsPostBack Then
    If _myQSVar.Count = 0 Then
            Calendar1.SelectedDate = Date.Now.Date.AddMonths(-6)
            Calendar2.SelectedDate = Date.Now.Date
        End If
        tbFromDate.Text = Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString()
        tbToDate.Text = Calendar2.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString()
        lstControls = New List(Of System.Web.UI.Control)
        ShowView()
    End If
End Sub

I load my checkboxlist with a simple for loop
For each one As String in ServerList
   chkboxList.Items.Add(one)
Next

And I wanna try to preserve the checkboxlist values when I do an event handler for an update button.
Private Sub btnUpdateGraph_Click(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnUpdateGraph.Click
'insert code
End Sub

A: Are you populating the checkboxlist on form.load? If so make sure you checking for if Page.ispostback. Load the checkboxlist only if its not a postback.  This will make sure the page(and the checkboxlist) is not  reloaded when you click.
Also, please do not lick update buttons. They dont really like that!

A: I believe you are binding CheckboxList at PageLoad Event. Just place the code inside the given code block:
if(!IsPostback)
{
// Bind your Checkbox List here
}

This will bind your checkboxlist only in case if the page loads first time, not after any postback.
I hope this will help you out.

Famous Yam Rice at Soon Long Coffeeshop, Chai Leng Park.
You know you've got yourself a great boyfriend when he would take you all the way across the bridge so that you could eat your favorite yam rice. Okay, let's not compliment him so much if not he sure very bangga like that. Haha. So yeah, there's this shop that I love love to go! Though it's far, it's totally worth the effort. Okay, let's move on. My mouth is already watering now as I type this out. Ahh, torture much.
Yam rice are usually served with yong tau foo but this one is like pork-soup-kind. They also have pork leg and vegetables and beancurd for side dish.
He says: This one is quite good because you can actually taste the small bits of 'har bee' inside the yam rice.
She says: I don't eat yam or yam rice. But this one is one exceptional. The dried prawns in it make them even better. Thumbs up for this one.
Portion for 2 persons. No internal organs of the oink oink for us, thank you.
He says: The 'thing' here. Love it. The meats is soft and tender as well. The meatballs are normal though..
He says: Good stuff if you wanna add some taste to your yam rice, meat balls or meat.
She says: I always ask for more of this everytime I eat here. That says it all, isnt it. Best thing ever!
During lunchtime, it is usually full of hungry humans.

Blessed Chinese New Year 2013!
LOOK BACK ON A GREAT LIFE.
LOOK FORWARD FOR A GREATER ONE.
Penang people will travel for food. Doesn't matter near or far. Penang people sure WILL travel for food! Or at least we know we will la! Hahaha.
The thing for this is that it's not that far. Just across the Penang Bridge. Very near what. He went there once and ever since then, he kept talking about it and insist that she has got to try it out! So, one night, we decided to hop onto a car, get some of our buddies and off we went for a food adventure overseas. Yeah, over THE sea. Hahaha.
She: Can I just say that, when I was on the way there, my expectation was very high because of all the emotions he used while describing it to me. And he also said that a lot of people line up for it. Like A LOT! But when we got there, there were like probably only 5 humans. Hahaha. But of course after that, there were close to 30 people lining up, under the drizzle. Amazing stuff.
He says: This thing is the special thing here. Aromatic, sticky and tasty!
She says: From quite a distance, sudah boleh smell the aroma la! Super thumbs up! I could just eat this with curry on top.
He says: Look at that! Howww tasty looking it is. hahaha. The 'kerang'/'ham' is fulamak! The curry chicken is tender. The omelette and vegetable is just so so though. On top of all that, a mixture of curry which is so rich in flavour. Gah. I wanna go again ASAP!
Walking down the street after having our lunch nearby and she decided to get this. One of her favorite karipap stall. We NEVER and I mean NEVER not eat "extra" food after a meal. It's just like our mouth itches everytime we see something yummy or something that catches our eyes.
Adam's Famous Chicken Curry Puff at Jalan Pasar, Penang.
Location: Located right in front of Sin Hup Aun Coffeeshop.
Direction: Turn into Pulau Tikus Market at Jalan Pasar and you will see the stall at the junction of Jalan Moulmein.
Brunch time is always best.
This means we both woke up at that kind of time where eating lunch is too early and a bit too late for breakfast. Syiok la this lifestyle. Though we only get to do this over the weekends.
Anyways, we were figuring out where to eat and what to eat. He suggested that we linger around Pulau Tikus since we were gonna do something later on. So, in the end we came here!
She says: It's a typical wan tan mee. The "gravy" supposed to make it special but I feel it tasted rather bland to me. Nothing unique and I didn't really like it. The noodles however is very springy, which is a good thing! Oh and the fried wantons are super yummmmeh!


We had the opportunity to get visibility in Jeld-Wen door campaign. Look how georgeus the lamps look within wooden doors!

Husband Rapes Housemaid At Knifepoint, Wife Forces Her To Drink Concoction
A 13-year-old girl has narrated how she was allegedly raped multiple times by her mistress' husband, Mr. Ulonna Amaobi, at Iyana Iba, Lagos.
Mary, an indigene of Jos in Plateau State, was taken to Nnewi, Anambra State, by her elder sister to find her a better life as their pastor father was financially challenged.
In Nnewi, Mary and her sister got separated when they had to work in different homes – her sister as a salesgirl and Mary as a housemaid for Amaobi's mother-in-law.
But without her sister's knowledge, Mary was sent to live with the Amaobis in Lagos. Mary's sister, who had insisted on keeping a close watch on her, immediately relocated to Lagos in order to be close to her younger sister.
Mary got to the Amaobis' home in April. According to her, the man started raping her right from that month.
"The first time he raped me and I bled, I reported to madam when she got back home. She did not do anything about it. But she beat me all the time when she accused me of stealing money," the girl said.
Mary said she was also routinely starved.
The couple had promised to enrol Mary in school also but made no attempt to look for a school for her during the four months she was there.
According to the girl, whenever Amaobi wanted to come into her room to rape her, he held a knife to her neck to prevent her from screaming.
"There was a time madam was in the sitting room. He came to where I was and carried me to his room. I tried to struggle but he held me down and said he would stab me if I made any noise. When he finished, he told me to get out of the room and to keep quiet because I was crying. I still went to report to his wife and she did not do anything about it," the girl said.
The man allegedly continued the sexual attack multiple times despite the girl notifying his wife.
But on Sunday, October 22, 2017, he raped her again as usual and the girl ran out of the house to report what he had done again to his wife.
Saturday Punch learnt that Amaobi's wife took the girl to a hospital to conduct a pregnancy test on her.
It is not clear what the result showed but when they got home, Mrs. Amaobi allegedly handed the girl an alcoholic herbal drink, which she refused to drink.
"Madam held a pair of scissors and said she would stab me if I did not drink it. I then drank the liquid. She did not tell me what it was for," Mary said.
Shortly after, Mrs. Amaobi told Mary to pack her belongings and she proceeded to hand her over to her sister.
Mary's sister cried profusely, blaming herself for everything that had happened to her sister as she narrated the story.
"I brought her from Jos because I thought I could look after her. I blame myself for all that has happened to her," she said.
When the case was reported to the Esther Child Rights Foundation, officials at the NGO notified the police and Mr. Amaobi was arrested.
In a taped statement, Mrs. Amaobi admitted that she indeed took the girl for a test and administered what she called "hot drink" on the girl.
But she refused to disclose what the concoction was used for when asked.
She said, "I love the girl like my own child. I love the girl very much. Even when she was stealing money in the house, I took her to our church for deliverance.
"It is true that she reported to me that my husband raped her. But she only reported once and that was this last time. I was shocked. I wanted to faint. I held my chest and was crying."
Director of the ECRF, Mrs. Esther Ogwu, said she petitioned the Lagos Office of Public Defender to ensure justice was done.
Amaobi was finally charged with child sexual abuse and child endangerment at the Ikeja Magistrate's Court, Lagos on Tuesday, November 7.
He was subsequently remanded at the Kirikiri Prison, Lagos pending when he met his bail conditions.
The case has been adjourned till January 25 for mention.

Housing Q&A: Got flood damage? Here's how renters and homeowners in NJ can recover
Ashley Balcerzak
Picking up the pieces in the aftermath of a destructive natural disaster like Tropical Storm Ida can be overwhelming and confusing. Sorting through applications to receive government help and nonprofit assistance — not to mention filing insurance claims — is a lot on its own, let alone when a family lost important paperwork or possessions needed to complete the processes.
As part of its monthly housing video series, NorthJersey.com and the USA Today Network New Jersey hosted a panel of three experts to guide New Jerseyans through where they can receive aid, how to estimate flood risk before buying or renting a home, and where to go for help if they hit roadblocks in the recovery process.
One notable deadline for Ida aid is approaching: The Federal Emergency Management Agency extended its application cutoff for individual assistance to Dec. 6, 2021 for flood survivors living in 12 New Jersey counties: Bergen, Essex, Gloucester, Hudson, Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex, Morris, Passaic, Somerset, Union and Warren.
FEMA's program is meant to provide short-term help and cannot duplicate benefits a family receives through insurance. Grants average between $5,000 to $8,000, according to Nikki Gaskins Campbell, a FEMA media relations specialist.
"Obviously if your home is destroyed, that's not going to rebuild your home," Gaskins Campbell said. "For the long term, we'll turn you over to other agencies to help with this."
The agency has passed out nearly $178 million to more than 35,000 homeowners and renters in New Jersey since Tropical Storm Ida to help pay for home repairs, rental assistance for temporary housing, replacing lost or damaged property, moving and storage fees, or medical expenses.
Apply online at DisasterAssistance.gov or by calling 1-800-621-3362.

For in-person assistance, FEMA disaster recovery centers remain open at
Essex County: Kmart (Co-located with a Vaccination Center) 235 Prospect Ave. #9413, West Orange 07052
Union County: O'Donnell Dempsey Senior Community Center, 618 Salem Ave., Elizabeth 07208.
Somerset County: North End Volunteer Fire Company #3, 169 N. 8th Ave., Manville 08835 (Closes permanently on Nov. 20)
Applicants should expect to hear back from FEMA within 2 weeks; if not, call FEMA's hotline, Gaskins Campbell said.
If you didn't receive an award, or don't think you received as much as you should have, applicants have 60 days to appeal the determination.
"Just because you get this determination letter and it's not what you're happy with, that is not the end-all be-all," Gaskins Campbell said. "We want people to read the letter carefully. Sometimes we need more information to better process your application and then that could completely change the game. We may see that, 'Oh, you forgot to tell us about this kind of damage.' Sometimes what slows up the process is people don't include their insurance information."
Even if you don't think you will be eligible for help, it's in New Jersey's interest for you to apply, said Amanda Devecka-Rinear, executive director for the New Jersey Organizing Project, a grassroots group formed in the wake of Superstorm Sandy.
The more people who apply, the "more of an argument can be made" for additional federal grant programs that could be offered in the future, Devecka-Rinear said.
Flood survivors should also look into low-interest disaster loans offered to homeowners and renters under the Small Business Administration to cover repair, rebuilding or replacement costs. Apply online at DisasterLoanAssistance.sba.gov or by calling 800-659-2955.
Low-income families who don't already receive food stamps may also be eligible for a special disaster food benefit program called D-SNAP by contacting their county board of social services.
The Legal Services of New Jersey is offering assistance filling out applications as well as legal assistance for those who qualify. Visit lsnjlaw.org or call 1-888-576-5529.
"Every tenant does have rights, it's not exactly black and white for everybody, but they should call our office to seek assistance or apply online," said Maryann Flanigan, vice president with Legal Services of New Jersey.
For instance, renters who are displaced are not required to pay rent while landlords make repairs, and unless a tenant turns over her keys and knowingly signs papers breaking her lease, or is evicted through the court system, she is still entitled to move back in to the apartment once it is fixed, according to the Department of Community Affairs.
And for renters and homeowners looking for a new place to live, they can examine FEMA flood risk maps at msc.fema.gov/portal, or a complementary tool from the nonprofit research group First Street Foundation at floodfactor.com.

Q: Sensitive info stored as environment variables in Cloud Run vs Compute Engine I use a Compute Engine(CE) instance to run a PostgreSQL database server for my Cloud Run deployed RESTful api service.
I created the CE instance first. When I setup the instance, I injected the database password as an environment variable. There was no warning mentioning not to do this.
Later when I setup the Cloud Run service, under the environment variable section, there was a clear warning NOT TO INJECT SENSITIVE INFO via environment variables and suggested to use Secret Manager instead.
Does this imply that it's secure to inject sensitive info via environment variables on dedicated CE instances? Or should I always use a tool like Secret Manager no matter what the service is?

A: This means that Cloud Run team has implemented a warning that the CE team hasn't. There is no more or less secure products, it's a common best practice: don't store in plain text your secrets: in file, in env vars,... even in memory now, that's why confidential computing solution has been developed by Google Cloud
So, use a service that store securely your secret. Secret Manager is an easy and simple place to achieve this. You can also use a KMS key to cipher/decipher your sensitive data. But keep your secrets secret!

Great level of service from staff
One aspect of the motel that was regularly commended was its service. Many former guests have said that, during their interactions with them, the staff members were really helpful, friendly and considerate overall.
Great central location in Port Macquarie
A highlight for many previous visitors has been the accommodation's location. Thanks to being centrally positioned in Port Macquarie, the property is within comfortable walking distance of various shops, restaurants, the beach and attractions.
Beneficial facilities a bonus
The public facilities provided by the motel were well-received for the most part by past guests. In particular, the free Wi-Fi was considered fast and reliable, the free on-site parking has proven to be a nice convenience, and the outdoor swimming pool was generally seen as enjoyable and well-maintained.
No lift provided
With the rooms spread across three floors, the omission of a lift was an understandable inconvenience for numerous former visitors that stayed at the accommodation. It has been claimed that, due to the stairs, the rooms on the higher floors were not ideal for those with mobility issues.
Temperamental showers
The showers in the motel's en-suite bathrooms have been a source of criticism at times for previous guests. In particular, it was noted that the temperature of the water can be unreliable, with various reports that the showers wouldn't get hot enough.
Rooms showing their age
Although fine for the most part, it was stated that the rooms were not in the best condition in terms of their appearance. It has been described on occasion that the rooms were somewhat dated in areas.

We are working in partnership with Aspirico to roll out their iPlanit system across several Lifeways services and offices. iPlanit is an award-winning online service that gives social care providers a live view of their service delivery and impact, and helps the individuals they support to achieve their planned goals.
At Lifeways we are committed to using the latest technology to personalise services and enhance service delivery for everyone we support and using iPlanit will play a key role in this.
iPlanit is currently being rolled out across three Lifeways locations, with more planned in the pipeline.


With more specific needs to be taken care of, more advanced technologies and more comprehensive plans, the rich landscape of telecom providers in the UK gets even richer when the business market is considered. Mobile, broadband, landlines and bundle packages all get many extras compared with their consumer market counterparts, and pure players are here to compete with well-known service providers and carriers.
Business users will need to understand exactly what modern mobile phone technologies can do for their professional needs in order to select the best plan, with the best provider, at the best price.
Choosing the best business mobile phone deal first means understanding one's specific needs, and what new mobile phone technologies can do to match these needs.
Knowing the basic pros and cons of each mobile phone operating system to select the right hardware is a start, and understanding what services can work on these operating systems and devices is the key to select the right telecom provider.
Several telecom providers compete to offer ever-changing lists of plans, with matching options to follow technological progress. But which one is really right for your planned business usage, and which one will really go the extra mile for the corporate customer ?
Most mobile phone service providers now double up as broadband and business phone service providers. Each type of package comes with added benefits compared with their consumer market counterparts.
The service is better, faster, stronger... but also more secure and more reliable. Plans directed at professionals are adapted to match these paramount concerns, and offer the much-needed advantages related to dedicated support channels.
Although most brand names associated with business communications are also well known by individual, mass-market customers, there has been a steady increase in the number of b2b-dedicated providers all trying to tackle niche markets.
If there are many telecom providers, some can be noted for their efforts to provide more than just phones and wires, and develop far-reaching hardware technologies to cater to very precise business needs. These full-service telecom providers can team up with their corporate clients to go the extra mile, from call centre to analytics.

Broken Frontier Staff Picks for August 7, 2013
Sidekick #1
Following Ten Grand as the second title released under his Joe's Comics imprint, JMS teams up with the inimitable Tom Mandrake for the total and utter deconstruction of one of comics' most polarizing conventions: the teenage sidekick.
In this latest series published by Image Comics, Straczynski and Mandrake put the assassinated Red Cowl's stalwart partner Flyboy through the emotional and physical ringer, not to mention push him deeper into depression and depravity as he struggles with life without his mentor. Desperate to regain the love and trust of the city he used to protect, is there anything Flyboy won't do to feel like a hero again?
Love 'em or hate'em, sidekicks have been around almost as long as their superhero mentors. Can you guess which side Straczynski comes down on? Pick up this sick, twisted superhero satire to find out!
J.M. Straczynski (W), Tom Mandrake (A) • Image Comics, $2.99
Trillium #1
Ever since the end of Sweet Tooth I have patiently waited for a new title written and drawn by Jeff Lemire, and Trillium will surely be worth the wait. Telling "the last love story ever," Lemire's cast of characters spans thousands of years and millions of miles across the galaxy, all of which is beautifully drawn the the fantastic creator.
Trillium's eight-issue run begins this Wednesday, and it is surely a must to get in from the start.
Jeff Lemire (W and A) • DC Comics/Vertigo, $2.99
Robocop: Last Stand #1 (of 8)
With Robocop: Last Stand, Boom! Studios brings us a vision of the second Robocop sequel, as screenwriter Frank Miller intended. Last Stand features art from talented Turkish newcomer Korkut Öztekin and a script by Steven Grant (Punisher: Circle of Blood, 2 Guns), adapted from the original Miller-penned screenplay for Robocop 3.
Times are bad in Detroit. Law and order have broken down and officers of Omni Consumer Products are the closest thing the town has to a police force. The company's dream of fully bringing about the corporatocracy known as Delta City is one step closer to reality, and if Detroit is to survive, Robocop must make his last stand. For fans of Frank Miller and the Robocop franchise, this is an installment not to be missed.
Frank Miller, Steven Grant (W), Korkut Öztekin (A) • Boom! Studios, $3.99
Satellite Sam #2
Matt Fraction's Satellite Sam #1 was one of last month's most unique titles on the stands. The book's mix of "sex, death, and live tv" ensured it stood out amongst every other title on the stands. This month sees the fight between the East and West Coast for control over television as a whole but how some racy photographs will play into that battle is yet to be clear.
Fraction is one of the most fun writers currently working in the industry, and Satellite Sam adds to that ever-growing catalogue.
Matt Fraction (W), Howard Chaykin (A) • Image Comics, $3.50
The Superior Spider-Man's life has been going in a very interesting direction ever since he was able to fully expunge Peter Parker from his brain. Now Otto Octavius is living up to the "superior" part of his name.
In recent issues Otto has gathered henchmen, gained a secret lair, and has his own army of villains under his control, all in Spider-Man's name. The line between hero and villain has already faded, though it is difficult to argue with his results. In this issue, the first of two parts, Otto sets his sight on the new Hobgoblin.
Dan Slott (W), Humberto Ramos (A) • Marvel Comics, $3.99
– Levi Hunt
Burn the Orphanage Born to Lose #1 (of 3)
Image Comics' Burn the Orphanage: Born to Lose makes its debut with the over-sized first issue of this three-part limited series. Our protagonist is Rock, an orphan bent on avenging the destruction of his childhood home. Together with his friends Lex and Bear, Rock sets out to bring those responsible to justice, but as you might have guessed, justice won't come easy.
Inspired by 1990s side scrolling games like Street Fighter II and Streets of Rage, Burn the Orphanage is co-written by Daniel Freedman (Undying Love) and artist Sina Grace (Books with Pictures, Not My Bag). A creator-owned tale of the all too familiar revenge story persuasion, for sheer beat 'em-up video game nostalgia, Burn the Orphanage can't be beat.

This morning we were on our own before our 10 am check out and 10:30 bus to the airport. Dan and I got up and had a quick breakfast, finished our packing, and then I decided to do a short walk about the village before we needed to head off for the airport.
It was just a couple of blocks to the main drag. EL Calafate is a small ( 7,000 – 10,000) town, but unlike Puerto Arenas, had more of a feel of Banff or Niagara on the Lake rather than the frontier town we had previously stayed in. Also, here I noticed. Lots of our "traditional" spring flowers all in bloom – rhododendrons, lilacs, roses ready to burst and beautiful peonies!
Lot's of shops, great restaurants and about anything that would appeal to tourists and adventure hikers and climbers. After covering most of the Main Street, I headed back to the hotel.
Back at the hotel, our travel family was gathered and ready to head out to the airport. Driving back out of town we were treated to beautiful vistas of Lago Argentina backdropped by the Andes.
We got to the airport and checked in. We had been forewarned that Aero Argentina only accepted 15 kg per checked bag…tough to do when we're travelling for 6 weeks through 3-4 seasons! With some rebalancing, I managed to get my bag down to 15 kg, so that we only had to pay for 1 overweight bag – about 40-50$.
We then headed to our gate only to find out that our flight was delayed about an hour. Oh well, the scenery was lovely, and it gave me a chance to sample an Argentinian Empanada – delist, even if it wasn't gluten free!
We soon saw our jet arrive, and we were boarded and off! Farewell to the Andes, Buenos Aires here we come!
Our guide has booked us in to see a Tango dinner show this evening while in BA. It will be our last dinner with most of our "family" and should prove to be a fun night!
Enough time spent with security…it was time to be off to our Tango lesson, dinner and show! Lots of fun was had by all … there was no choice in taking the lesson! Eduardo came is and told everyone to stand (well more or less commanded!!). Good thing too, as we all had lots of fun! My biggest challenge was needing to count in Spanish so that I could remember the steps!! All and all, Dan and I made out pretty well!
After dinner we were treated to a show with fascinating dancers and a wonderful orchestra!
The show was finished around 11:30pm…. Off to the hotel we went ( btw, I have rebooked into a lovely hotel for our last 2 nights…this one was just not cutting it for me!). It was repack for a light carry on for our trip tomorrow and then to bed to grab what little sleep we could get. Our flight is at 9:30 am, so we must leave the hotel at 7:15! Good night to all!
Sounds like a great finish to this segment!
It'll be even better when we change to our new hotel tomorrow in BA!


6/27/13 ASHLAND, Ohio - Dr. Dan Lehman, trustees' distinguished professor of English, was interviewed by Associated Press outside Nelson Mandela's hospital in Pretoria, South Africa, on June 26. Lehman had stopped at the hospital during his morning run. Lehman and six students from Ashland University participated in a two-week study tour of South Africa. The tour combined six undergraduate students from Ashland University and five graduate students from Ohio State University and was led by Drs. Dan and Barbara Lehman, who were Fulbright senior scholars in Cape Town during the 2004-2005 academic year.
Dr. Lehman explained what took place.
"The world press has gathered at Mandela's hospital, and people have been bringing signs to the gate. As I was standing there reading the signs and taking it all in, the Associated Press approached me for an on-camera interview. Perhaps it was because I was the only white guy among the those paying respects, or perhaps I was an obvious foreigner, or perhaps it was just sort of strange that I was in running clothes on a cold morning not long after dawn.
In any event, it turned into quite a long interview and I surprised myself by getting emotional at mid-point. I think it was that I remembered my mom's favorite story about watching TV with anti-apartheid Quaker activist friends in Birmingham, England, the day that Mandela was released from prison. I guess I am not my Mom's son for nothing when it comes to emotions and it made me remember her. Of course, my emotions were also affected by the fact that within the past few weeks my AU students and I had stood in the tiny cell on Robben Island where Mandela was imprisoned for two decades and also wallked through the lime quarry where he worked at hard labor. But of course the media seemed quite interested in my reaction.
Moments later, Reuter's asked for an on-camera interview, but I cut that very short as I really was not interested in becoming some sort of voice for this experience when there are so many South African voices to be heard.
