Welcome to the 4th Foodie Friday. What is Foodie Friday? Well, it's a bit like a modern day recipe swap. We'll meet here each Friday to link up our recipes. Most weeks we'll have a theme, but sometimes, we'll do an all-out potluck. I'm open to suggestions as to what the next week's theme should be so feel free to leave those in the comments.
This week's a potluck week so link up whatever recipe you want. Link up as many recipes as you want.
This week, I tried four recipes that were linked up in past Foodie Friday. Three from last week and one from the week before. Y'all sure are making my meal planning easy!
First up is Kristi's (from Life is Just a Bowl of Cherrys) Stuffed Manicotti.
Kristi says, "Note: This photo does NOT do this recipe justice!
I've never used Manicotti shells before and I didn't realize how thin they were. Because of this, my shells split while they were boiling. No worries, I just spooned some filling down the middle and folded them closed. I forgot that she mentioned needing more than one box of pasta so I ended up boiling some giant shells too. I would say that one box of Manicotti would have been enough. Maybe I just overstuffed mine. Anyway, I just have to say that this is the BEST filling I've had. I've made a ton of stuffed shells in my lifetime and the filling has always been too runny. Not this filling, it was nice and thick and had a great flavor. The only thing I changed about it was t hat I added a TBS or two of minced garlic. For my sauce, I didn't even use a really nice sauce. I used my store brand straight outta the can. This was an awesome meal and I'll be adding to my files for sure.
Next up is Jan's (from The Simpler Life) slow cooker BBQ Chicken, which her husband has dubbed "Sweet Baby Jan's BBQ".
Just so you know, I love BBQ. I love BBQ because I'm Southern and that's what we do. I love it, but I've never made it before. I've made BBQ chicken breasts before, but never shredded BBQ. I followed Jan's recipe to the T, except I didn't use HEINZ (sorry, Jan). I ended up cooking my chicken for about 6 hours on low. That's about 2 hours less than Jan recommends, but my pot cooks on the hot side. Once it was done, I put the chicken on a plate, got my knife and fork out and got ready to shred. Turns out, I only needed the fork. So this is what they mean when they say fork-tender. Oh my gosh, this stuff was so tender! And the sauce, the sauce was awesome too. It's a tangy sauce because of the vinegar and it's soooo good! We made sandwiches out of this (we didn't use the cheese that her recipe calls for), but I think it would be really good over some white rice and so that's probably what I'll do with it next time. This one's a keeper too.
Tonight, we made Rebekah's (from Potholes & Pantyhose) Baked Rosemary Potatoes.
Holy Moly, these are good. I've got a cold and I still thought they were great! Han ate two helpings of them and that is saying a lot! She's bot really a picky kid, but lately she's been really finicky. I followed Rebeka's recipe exactly. The only thing difference is that I ended up baking them on the middle rack for an hour and I stirred them every 20 minutes or so. I was just trying to stretch the cooking time until Charles got home and got the Turkey burgers grilled. I will definitely be making these again and they're getting added to the Thanksgiving menu this year.
And last, but not least, COOKIES!! This is a Martha recipe posted and linked up by a little bit of everything.
First off, you should be aware that this recipe makes about 50 large cookies. That's what the recipe says and I'd say that's pretty accurate since we had 25 cookies and we still have a large roll of dough in the fridge. Also, this recipe requires that you chill the dough so you need to take that into account when making these. I just have to say that these are now one of my favorite cookies. I love them because they combine two of my favorite sweets, cookies and brownies. It's like a brownie cookie! You can't get any better than that! Thanks, Martha, and thanks to a little bit of everything for posting this!!
If I featured your recipe, feel free to grab my button.
This week's a potluck week so link up whatever recipe you want. Link up as many recipes as you want. And while you're here, go on over and link up to win a $40 gift card to CSN stores. All you have to do is be a follower and link up. That's it!
I now have a Foodie button!! Thanks, Charles!!
Thank you so much for featuring the most delicious cookies ever! I mixed up a batch myself today and fear I will eat way too many. Good news is, they freeze nicely. Bad news is, they're great frozen too !
Glad that you liked the manicotti! Thanks for featuring it!
Thanks for featuring my Rosemary Potatoes! I am so glad that you actually tried them and liked them. I really appreciate your props!
Man those look really tasty!
Visiting from the Blog Hops! I love your site. I can't wait to get to know you better. Stop by when you get the chance. I have a Meet Me Monday blog hop and I would love if you could join in.
Thank you for the invite and thanks for hosting. Nice to 'meet' you. I'll be back - I'm your newest follower :) Have a great weekend!

Today, we are sad to hear the news of Shashi Kapoor’s death. He had a huge fan following and we still can’t believe that he is no more with us. Social media is flooded with condolence messages for the LEGEND.
However, there seems to be a goof up, because some of them called Shashi Tharoor’s office. Yes, people actually mistook Shashi Kapoor as Shashi Tharoor & started pouring condolence messages for him.
We apologize for the typographical error on our end. @ShashiTharoor we wish you good health.
Media channels should be very careful while tweeting, because this is a very sensitive matter.
What do you have to say about this goof up?
Shashi Kapoor Passes Away At 79. We Have Lost Another Legend.

The political establishment went nuclear on President-elect Donald Trump Tuesday with a double-barreled blast of “leaked” “intelligence” reports by CNN and BuzzFeed.
Let’s just take a moment and laugh at how truly hilarious this is.
Two of the largest medial outlets in the world allegedly broke the most outrageous scandal ever concerning a president (elect).
They had proof that the soon to be president was being blackmailed by the Russian government!
Except… It was all a prank. Completely fabricated. Not real.
It was a juicy fake bone thrown to a couple of anti-Trump dogs.
Not only do these two companies have egg all over their face, they now have to deal with the repercussions of slandering the (soon-to-be) most powerful man in the world.
Would hate to be them right now.
With just ten days to go before he is sworn in as America’s forty-fifth president, the political establishment went nuclear on President-elect Donald Trump Tuesday with a double-barreled blast of “leaked” “intelligence” reports by CNN and BuzzFeed.
The documents contain explosive, but unverified, opposition research that alleges intel ties between Russia and Trump and also claims Russia holds sexual blackmail material over Trump.
One of the most outrageous unconfirmed allegations in the report claims the Russians recorded Trump watching Russian prostitutes urinate on each other in a Moscow hotel room previously occupied by President and Mrs. Barack Obama.
Buzzfeed, Cosmopolitan, and CNN got played by 4Chan.
According to the “leaked” “intelligence” documents: Trump disliked Obama so much that he hired two Russian hookers to piss on a bed that Obama slept on in Russia.
And the liberal media ran with this!
The original story was created by 4Chan user.

The larvae are polyphagous. The young caterpillars feed often on grasses, the later instars also more on herbs. But I also found youg caterpillars for example on Lathyrus.
Noctua pronuba colonizes habitats of all kinds from gardens over grasslands to forests. The moth is an ubiquist.
The caterpillar overwinters half to almost fully-grown and can be commonly found especially in October/November and again in March/April. But they are active also during winter in favourable weather conditions. Adults can be observed throughout the summer. The eggs are attached in large flat batches on old blades and fruits of grass or leaves. In La Gomera and La Palma (Canary Islands), I watched each around Christmas hundreds of young to half-grown caterpillars. They are fitted in the phase of winter rain and growing season of annual plants (about Calendula) and pupate mostly from January to March.
Noctua pronuba is found throughout Europe and is one of the most common species of Lepidoptera. It also flies in North Africa, the Atlantic Islands, in Asia to northern India and Siberia. It was introduced in North America .

What are Websites? Having been told the term recently but not having paid much attention the majority are just to reluctant to show the ignorance and have the question, what exactly is blog? Lets face this; the term weblog does not conjure pleasant photos.
Blogs are web records that are up to date regularly, usually on a daily basis. They contain info related to a selected topic. In some instances blogs are being used as daily diaries regarding people’s personal lives, political views, or even because social commentaries. The truth with the matter is the fact blogs may be shaped into what ever you, the author, want them to be.
Wherever Did Websites Come From? The roots of blogging could be traced returning to the the middle of 1990’s. So, who the very first blog owner actually was is unclear, as the art of blogging would not really have hold till 1999. The first “weblogs” had been link-driven sites with personal commentaries. The very first blogs were human well guided Internet net tours. Even though initially looked at as diaries or perhaps online journals, blogs have got evolved in to the latest unique web content.
The ongoing future of Blogs A buzz word in techie groups, “blogging” is a wave of the future. Whether their a craze, or shows to be a fresh way to communicate with existing and prospective customers it deserves at the very least a cursory check.
Why is Blogging and site-building Helpful to Businesses or Persons? Just as cartoon. gifs had been once nice, blogging is a trendy move to make. That does not imply that it is not beneficial to businesses. Webmasters struggling to keep fresh, desirable content issues websites to lure visitors back, have found blogs the answer. Content is a necessity for internet businesses, both intended for purposes penalized found by simply search engines nevertheless also because it gives tourists a reason to come back.
Now that we have established that blogs are not only trendy although also good for businesses, its important to discover how they can be used to your edge. We at the moment manage and update two websites on a daily basis.

The bottom line is all of us control this great article. Its updated daily, which will increases the probabilities that search engines like yahoo will index on a regular basis and it helps with page rank mainly because it’s been posted to all the blogging web directories. Initially started out on a impulse we’ve found it good for report recommendations, tricks or perhaps make visitors aware of fresh regulations related to the mobile or paging industry.
This blog is less formal and contains advertising tips, or promotional guidance for software program developers or online marketers. We all found that we had flood from our month to month newsletter. Making a daily blog would require very little efforts and would definitely assist us in creating fresh articles which our readers informed us was of significant interest.

Cool. Now we can start preparing all the merchandise for the eventual onslaught.
Ricky Rouse and Monald Muck, eat your heart out!
"Oh what a time to be alive"
Techdirt could have a countdown timer running in the banner.
And you can change your name to Michael Mousenick.
Here's an idea: Tero Pulkinnen (tp) and the Millionaire's Mansion.
Play as the misguided Scandinavian programmer as he journeys across the public domain, coming across all the free works competing for eyeball space against his MPAA-approved meshpage, which he expects laymen to buy but doesn't advertise it beyond two English buses, or make it available on retail.
Every time he sees a work in the public domain he shits a brick.
The game ends when he shits enough to build his $6 million dollar Minecraft mansion.
DLC includes hunting for garden gnomes.
And in 4 years, a retroactive copyright extension will not only cover Mickey again, but all of the content that this game jam is going to use.
Many works from 1923 are unavailable due to the fact that the media storing them was crap and did not hold up to modern times. Wait until the first few years of computer records hit the public domain and see how many copies ended up being saved here and there.
So the first draft of the Silmarillion, written in Elvish would be completely and totally new. But it would be impossible to get an eternal copyright on anything with elves or magic swords?
I like where you are going with this - but nothing would qualify for this "completely original" protection, Everything's a re-mix.
Even more important that this kind of thing happens then, I think. If there's a body of work to point to and say "this would not have existed with further copyright extensions", that's a better argument than asking people to imagine what might have been. Especially if some of the new creations are successful financially.
How did that Wikipedia article manage to miss one of the most obvious ones of all: the Ring of Gyges?
Nothing can have it. Nothing wrought by modern, mortal hand can have it. We know what it is; it's just impossible. Just like absolute zero Kelvin.
Because Plato is no longer widely read, because ancient Greek is no longer taught as one of the keys to knowledge. (The other key was latin).
They probably just didn’t see it.
Felix in his original incarnation has been in the public domain for years. He first appeared in 1919. The main thing is, if you use the character, be careful not to use attributes that came later. For example, the famous bag of tricks didn’t show up until 1953. Likewise, he used to have a squatter design, and if you use him, that’s what you’re stuck with, not the later, slimmer versions.
Many works from 1923 are unavailable due to the fact that the media storing them was crap and did not hold up to modern times.
I'm genuinely not sure how humanity is still around.
But the opposition is much stronger and more organized than it was in 1998, and Congress is dysfunctional. Trying another extension would be a gamble.
They may decide that their best course of action is to switch to litigation (sue anyone who puts one toe out of line in, for example, coloring Mickey's shorts red before the color cartoons go into the PD) and keep it out of Congress.
I was expecting a big push this past year. We didn't get one.
The previous fight took place during the 90s, where Disney was only just rescuing itself from a bad run and depended a lot on their classic characters for revenue. They had a bunch of successful newer works, but even then the public domain provided the source for almost all of the new properties - The Little Mermaid, their first major animated hit in many years, was only just released when they started lobbying in 1990 (date taken from a quick glance at Wikipedia, I know the history is more complex!). They were desperate to keep on track and knew that the sturdy foundations they depended on might crumble if their old works went PD.
Fast forward to this decade, and the landscape has completely changed. Their acquisitions of Pixar, Marvel and Lucasfilm has led to them totally dominating the landscape again with properties that are nowhere in near of danger of being pushed into the PD for a very long time, and even in-house original properties have ballooned into multi-billion box office and merchandising empires. They probably make as much from things like Cars merchandise as they do with Mickey himself, if not much more.
Now, their competitors haven't been so lucky, and they have other properties that will be entering the PD within the next decade or two that Disney would love to legally appropriate. Imagine getting the Looney Tunes in a Pixar movie, with no royalties being required, for example. They already have a massive competitive advantage, and this can be leveraged without the public domain.
So, knowing that Disney can protect their core properties in other ways, such as with trademark law, perhaps they've had a look and decided that it's more profitable to fight in this way and with other things like their upcoming streaming service, than it is by insisting that properties that were created before any of their current audience were born need another 20 years worth of protection.
I know, this may be giving them far too much credit, and perhaps hopelessly optimistic, but it does cross my mind that they might be thinking ahead of the game here. That it also happens to benefit independent artists and the public might just be a side effect, but it does seem like a plausible idea given that they're not the organisation clinging desperately to a previous golden age that they were when they started the previous fight.
At any rate, if copyright doesn't get extended again, then we're 17 years out from Captain America and Bucky hitting the public domain, with Red Skull joining them the following year.
Right; see my example above: "sue anyone who puts one toe out of line in, for example, coloring Mickey's shorts red before the color cartoons go into the PD".
I don't get what you mean there, though. Do you mean they'll try releasing a bunch of stuff with minor changes to create new copyrights in order to anticipate what people are going to do once the works are public domain?
No, I'm saying exactly the same thing you're saying: they're going to watch derivatives of their now-public-domain works like a hawk to make sure they only contain public-domain components. There's a pretty good article at Ars Technica that notes that, for example, Mickey didn't wear gloves until 1929, and his shorts weren't red until 1935. If Steamboat Willie goes into the public domain in 5 years as planned, then that will mean Disney giving up on suing third-party works that use Mickey -- so long as it's the version from Steamboat Willie, and does not incorporate any elements that were added in later cartoons. But you can still expect the lawyers to swoop in aggressively for any works that do incorporate those later elements: gloves, red shorts, etc., or that use trademarks like "Mickey Mouse" in a way that implies endorsement or could reasonably be expected to confuse buyers into believing it's a licensed Disney product.
"No, I'm saying exactly the same thing you're saying: they're going to watch derivatives of their now-public-domain works like a hawk to make sure they only contain public-domain components."
Ah, ok that makes sense then. I've not really looked at the different variations of Mickey in that much detail to pick up the red short reference.
I'm not happy as such, but I'd rather the situation where they do that and allow non-Disney properties to be public domain as they belong, than the alternative of them locking it up again, even if there's a slim change the changes will be rolled back.
In movie "Safety Last!", last part main character climb building for get 1000$ US (really he want his friend climb for him) and reach his girl friend at top. He need fight pigeons, net, dog, clock, etc, when climb. Great idea for 2D game.
National Geographic magazine also have King Tut pictures in 1923.

Our newest whitepaper is out!
Our newest whitepaper is out! 5 Pitfalls to Avoid when Designing an Effective Data Analytics Organization. This post will present you a short summary of it.
A company-wide data-driven culture, allows businesses to make better decisions. But to reach such a level, companies need to employ analytical methods to get high-quality data. What are the main challenges companies face to obtain data analytics?
1. Inadequate data and analytics expertise: An incapacity for leveraging data throughout an organization.
2. Complications trying to change a non data-driven culture: This is a big problem for many companies, and can’t be taken for granted.
3. Deficit of skills: Companies have a hard time finding personnel with the right expertise to deal with data and analytics.
4. Confused organization’s proposals: A nonalignment between a company’s business value and its data and analytics implementation.
5. Shortage of data knowledge: When there’s a dependency on conventional data structure models, companies can’t get high-quality data or don’t even know how to leverage data.
Do you face any of these problems in your company? Fill out the form below to download the whitepaper and know how to overcome these challenges!

MiniModelPaint Studios: A commission is good for the soul. And the ego.
A commission is good for the soul. And the ego.
I've built and painted lots of models over the years, and often for other people. These have usually been favours, repairs or charity paintups. Occasionally I've managed to sell a finished kit on eBay, and the first time that happened is pretty much when MiniModelPaint Studios was launched.
Actual paid commissions are few and far between - my hat's off to anyone who makes a living doing commission work - but recently an opportunity arose that mixed three of my ideals: to build and paint a sci-fi monster - for a complete stranger - and get paid for doing it!
The model in question was the 1:1 Halcyon Movie Classics Aliens Chestburster from the very early 90s. As with many of that Aliens range, the kit is PVC - or just 'vinyl'. It's a great medium, and I've covered it before - even on YouTube - but it is fraught with pitfalls. If it's not prepped well, it's completely unforgiving.
Choosing the wrong primer, for instance, will stop subsequent layers of paint drying and curing properly, leaving you with a tacky finish (even if you varnish it).
But let's start earlier than that. The kit needs washing and scrubbing to remove mould release agents and whatever else has grown on it. Handling should be kept to a minimum.
Heating and cutting the excess material is easy. This kit is quite soft, and only needs softening under the hot tap to trim away the flash and pour hole spludges. Stuffing it full of scrunched up newspaper is a good way to stop it sagging when it gets warm in the central heating, but the paper won't provide ballast weight. You'll eventually need something heavier.
The Chestburster is also about 3 feet long, and has a tail that is a recast from the earlier Halcyon Movie Classics Alien Facehugger kit. Not a complaint - they are related, after all!
Without reinforcement, though, this tail is a nightmare to shape. If you're building your burster with a completely straight tail, it'll be fine without rebar inside, but won't it look dull? I prefer to have a model on display that looks like it's mid-action. I want this little beast to look like it's on its way somewhere to feed and grow, so I need wires. Thick wires.
These wires strengthen the shape, and act as an armature for the tail. I can warm up the vinyl, shape the piece, cool it, and it'll definitely stay in place if the wires are fitted. Vinyl has amazing plastic memory. Even after you reprogramme it to a new form, it could still revert to the original position if it warms up under the heat of the sun coming in through a window.
Finding a practical and dynamic shape for the tail proved to be a lot of trial and error. I always planned for the model to stand on its own, without the need for external support. However, the tail had other ideas. It would not act as a counterbalance to the body. Even with the wire and paper, the tail wouldn't keep certain shapes, and was not solid enough to support the weight of the top-heavy body section.
I kept the body and the tail separate for a while, until I had a firmer plan in place for pose and ballast. It still needed painting, so I decided to crack on and sort out the technical problems later. Some seam filling and it was ready for priming.
From here, it was a case of many layers and tones of preshade (greys and burnt umber, mostly), and intermediate layers of VGA Elf Skintone. Shade again, main coat again. I found this to give a rich depth of colour, which is needed for an organic figure like this.
I love a good preshade. You can go absolutely nuts with related tones and you'll get a really natural feeling result on the top coat.
Of course, before the teeth went in, I painted the inside of the mouth. It looks waaay too OSL-y here, but there's a reason for it.
And while everything on the body is drying, it's time to sort out the teeth. Primed in grey, sprayed in VGA purples, and finished (teeth only) with Citadel Mithril Silver. They'll have more done once they're in place, but there's no point trying to get silver around the back of spiky things once they're glued in.
A test fit, just to be sure.
But how do we solve the problem of ballast, without filling the whole tail with plaster or resin. There's no one 'right' way (loads of wrong ways, though), and what I ended up doing was using the spindle from a roll of Mod-Rock, and wrapping it in paper and Mod-Rock. This fitted across the joint from the body and the tail.
I also reshaped the tail into a loop-the-loop coil, which solved 2 problems: it made the model shorter and easier to position on a diorama, and secondly it gave the model 2 points of contact on the base. This was surely going to make it easier to stand up, right? The wire helped, and any splits in the putty joins were easily fixed.
It was about this time I started on the diorama base. I knew I wanted something grungy and industrial, with some Weyland-Yutani 'company' logos, and blood. Plenty of blood. This isn't a friendly alien beastie, after all.
Ikea to the rescue! A shelf from a CD unit was the right size to stand the Chestburster on. Some plasticard, wire and Starbucks coffee stirrers, and we had a start. Yes, at this point it looks like a shelf with a bunch of crap stuck to it. My wife even squinted at it and asked "is that it?"
No. We don't stop there. That's just the skeleton. I guess this is why you should never show anyone who doesn't do the same kind of work any early WIP stages! Here's a quick test fit.
I primed the base in grey and then got the Alclads out. Black basecoat, and the last of my Magnesium lacquer to cover. Washes, metal drybrushing, GW Typhus Corrosion (amazing paint) and Ryza Rust gave the base its first major look of filthy tone. Seal it with all the lacquers and varnishes. Leave to dry.
At this point, it's worth seeing the beastie in situ - we've seen that it fits, and checked that the curled tail is appropriate for the scene. This test fit will determine if the colour palettes are compatible in a practical way, what needs highlighting, and what areas need more detail.
Repeat where needed, and get a really wide contrast between the shadows and highlights. Spray, drybrush - whatever it take - and seal with Future. A matte or satin coat will dull down the shine.
Bloody up the mouth. Blood for the Blood God is a great technical paint for this job. It's thick, sloppy and glossy. You could probably make your own with other paint medium, but realistic red gloop, you can't get any better.
Back to the base, then. I washed large portions of the thing with Army Painter Quickshade (Strong Tone), and allowed it to dry. It took a couple of days, but gave a really good oil spill. Just to make sure, I recoated matte and satin over areas I didn't want shiny. Then, I mixed up some Woodland Scenics Water Effects with various shades of red, brown and purple and dripped over the base in areas where the Chest Burster would have been. Gore and oil: great textures.
Last bit on the base - the logos. Using the same technique as on my Alien3 xeno, I glued some Weyland Yutani logos onto metal foil and cut them out. Sealed with matte varnish.
Yes. That was a coffee tin vacuum foil. Anything goes in the world of scratch building.
And the final bit on the bug - blood spatter. A great technique, but you'll need your wits about you: dip a flat brush (an old toothbrush works, too) in Blood for the Blood God, and using a wooden stick, spray the model's surface with the paint. It goes mostly where you want it to, but also all over your clothes and face.
I'm imagining that after exiting the host body, the burster will have lost the initial smear of 'afterbirth' quite quickly, running around the air-ducts and tunnels of wherever it now lives. It still needs to feed, so there are probably rats and other small mammals it can eat, and they'd spray blood directly at it. Good thing I used to watch Dexter, eh?
I sprayed other blood over the whole body and tail, for consistency, and then checked it over to see what I missed.
And that's all folks! I got to build an awesome kit, got paid for it, and had a lot of fun doing it.

At E3 2017, EA and BioWare announced Anthem, an ambitious online-connected shooter following in the footsteps of Bungie’s Destiny. According to massive report from Kotaku speaking to anonymous sources close to the project, there’s a feeling at BioWare that the studio’s future is on the line with Anthem, and aside from a few small teams all hands are on deck for the new title.
Here’s everything we know about Anthem so far.
Anthem is reportedly now scheduled in early 2019, a delay from the fall 2018 window mentioned at E3, with one source saying that date was “never realistic.” There’s no exact date in mind yet, but developers don’t believe EA would allow the game to be delayed any further than the end of fiscal year 2019 in March.
Earlier today, executive producer Mark Darrah confirmed that BioWare are “hard at work” on a new Dragon Age, and according this report that DA development currently from a small team, with the vast majority of BioWare staff at both Edmonton and Austin at work on Anthem. The new Dragon Age would be early in development, as it’s apparently been rebooted within the past year, in part to implement more live service elements. People at the studio say that there will still be a strong emphasis on characters and story.
The future of Star Wars: The Old Republic is also in question, as discussions within the studio about whether to shut down the 2011 MMO have been ongoing.
According to the report, there are a number of factors causing anxiety within the studio regarding Anthem’s development. BioWare Montreal was absorbed into EA Motive after the disappointment of Mass Effect: Andromeda. Controversy over Battlefront II’s loot boxes has BioWare reconsidering monetization plans for Anthem, which are still undecided.
Similarly, the negative response from Destiny players over the sequel’s lack of content has the studio concerned whether they can overcome similar issues. Developers are also concerned that inflammatory comments from pundits, especially on YouTube, around EA have painted the company as cartoonish villains, demoralizing those doing the ground work.
But there’s optimism around Anthem according to these sources, and though the project has struggled since it first began in 2012, things seem to have improved. Either way, the feeling at the studio is that BioWare will look very different in the future depending on Anthem’s relative success or failure.

There are numerous opportunities for music education at St. John. Vocal music is built into the curriculum at each grade level, while other music education opportunities are voluntary extra-curriculars, such as handbells and band.
Children in grades 4K through 2nd participate in Cherub Choir. Children learn to sing songs that are age appropriate and often times utilize hand motions and gestures to enhance learning. Practices are in school on Wednesdays after chapel. The Cherub Choir sings in church 5 - 6 times during the school year under the direction of Mrs. Candice Schram.
Children in grades 3 through 8 participate in Junior Choir. Music education at this level entails teaching students to read the music they are singing. Children also learn about the meaning and history of the choral pieces. Practices are held on Wednesdays after chapel in the church sanctuary. The Junior Choir sings in church once each month during the school year under the direction of Mrs. Charlotte Fritsch.
Handbell Choir is open for boys and girls in grades 5 through 8. Practice is held two days per week during the school year from 11:00 - 11:50 a.m. The Handbell Choir plays in church once each month during the school year. Extra performances are scheduled for area nursing homes, the Berlin Senior Center, and some area churches.
Music instruction for recorders takes place two days per week in 3rd and 4th grade. Students purchase a recorder and learn the basics of music - how to read and count notes and follow a musical selection. The children earn awards and ribbons as they progress and develop their skills. The musicians occasionally play in church or for Parent Teacher League events and talent shows.
All St. John students have the opportunity to take band through the Berlin Public School system starting in 6th grade. Directors from the Berlin Middle School meet with the students and parents to discuss instrumentation and procedures. Students are bused to the Berlin Middle School for class on band days, and lessons are held right at St. John School.

Clause 37. Information as regards properties, etc.
In the absence of a quorum at the beginning of the meeting, members agreed to hold the meeting as an informal discussion. A quorum was subsequently formed at 8:55 am.
2. As the Bills Committee (BC) had concluded discussions on the six major areas where Committee stage amendments (CSAs) to the Bill were being considered by the Administration, the Chairman sought clarification on the time required for drawing up relevant CSAs. The Senior Assistant Law Draftsman (Acting) (SALD (Atg)) advised that this would take about one to two months on account of the need to consult the Policy Branch, the Civil Division and the Legal Policy Division of the Attorney Generals Chambers (AGC) on the amendments. Members urged the Administration to expedite the drafting process and forward draft CSAs which were ready for examination by the Bills Committee. For the current meeting, members would examine the list of major issues raised by the Chairman and Hon NGAN Kam-chuen circulated vide LegCo Paper No. CB(1) 462/96-97.
3. Before commencing discussion, the Chairman invited the Administration to brief members on the information paper on criminal penalties and disciplinary sanctions relating to the Bill circulated vide LegCo Paper No. CB(1) 484/96-97. The Assistant Secretary for Housing (AS for H) explained that serious offences such as undertaking estate agency work without licences, and furnishing false or misleading information would be subject to criminal penalties, while breaches relating to provision of property information, professional competence and regulatory compliance would be subject to disciplinary actions.
4. Having regard to the extensive power of the Estate Agents Authority (EAA) under the Bill, the Chairman considered a need for the Secretary for Housing (S for H) to inform the Legislative Council (LegCo) of the rationale when making policy directions to EAA to ensure a proper check and balance mechanism in the operation of EAA. The Principal Assistant Secretary for Housing (PAS for H) emphasized that the objective of clause 7 was to protect public interest and that similar provisions existed in other legislation, such as the Airport Authority Ordinance (AAO), the Hospital Authority Ordinance (HAO) and the Securities and Futures Commission Ordinance (SFCO). He assured members that any rules or regulations prescribed by the Administration would be subject to the scrutiny of LegCo. SALD (Atg) supplemented that except for the provision under clause 79G(8) of the Criminal Procedures Ordinance where rules or directions made by the Chief Justice would be subject to the approval of LegCo, it was common for the Governor or a Branch Secretary to give directions to a statutory body. In reply to a related question, AS for H advised that S for H could only invoke the power under clause 7 when public interest was at risk. The Chairman considered the term "public interest" too broad, and suggested that the Administration should spell out explicitly the circumstances under which S for H could exercise such a power. SALD (Atg) advised that while it was feasible to confine the scope of "public interest", this would reduce the flexibility for S for H to give directives for different circumstances. Moreover, the term "public interest" was commonly used in other legislation.
5. As regards "public officers" who were responsible for giving directives under ordinances mentioned above, AS for H advised that the Governor was the authority in the case of HAO and SFCO, and the Governor in Council in the case of AAO. Hon Mrs Selina CHOW considered that as the power under clause 7 could only be invoked under special circumstances, it was logical to appoint a higher hierarchy of authority such as the Governor or the Governor in Council rather than the S for H. She explained that the autonomy of EAA would be compromised if S for H or one of his officials were to serve on the Board of the EAA, in particular in the event of divergent views between the Authority and the Administration. Since such a power should not be exercised by any member of the Board, it would be vital for the directions to come from the Governor or the Governor in Council. She urged the Administration to amend this clause or else she would move a CSA to that effect. The Chairman and Hon NGAN Kam-chuen were in support of this view. The Chairman added that members had no intention of casting doubt on Housing Branch officials but that it was essential to strike a balance in the monitoring mechanism. PAS for H emphasized that the spirit of clause 7 was to protect public interest and this should not be regarded as interference on the operation of EAA. He supplemented that the public officer to be appointed to EAA would have to be decided by the Governor and that the officer so appointed might not necessarily come from the Housing Branch. The Policy Secretary could seek advice from the Governor in Council whenever required but it should not be necessary for the Governor in Council to be approached every time when an issue came up. PAS for H nevertheless undertook to consider members proposal.
6. The Chairman considered the phrase "any of the functions of an estate agent" under clause 15(1)(c) too broad, and urged the Administration to re-define the relevant provision. SALD (Atg) advised that subsequent to previous discussions on clause 15, consideration had been given to including the phrase "in the course of business" after the word "done" in the definition of "estate agency work" under clause 2 on Interpretation, and replacing the phrase in question by "doing estate agency work as an estate agent" to eliminate possible grey areas.
7. The Chairman suggested re-phrasing clause 17(3) as "the Authority may, in the interest of the public, attach to a licence such conditions as it considers appropriate and conditions so attached to a licence may include conditions prescribed under section 57". He explained that the phrase "in the interest of the public" would provide a parameter within which additional conditions could be prescribed, and allay the concerns of small estate agents on clause 17(3). Mrs CHOW however took a different view and was opposed to the proposed inclusion as the Bill was aimed at protecting public interest; furthermore, clause 5 had already provided a framework within which EAA should discharge its functions. PAS for H agreed with Mrs CHOW and pointed out that clauses 5(a) and (b), together with clause 17(3), had prescribed the manner in which conditions to licences should be made. AS for H supplemented that the objective of clause 17(3) was to provide flexibility for EAA to prescribe additional conditions for circumstances not covered by subsidiary legislation, and that it was common for licensing authorities to have such powers. Moreover, estate agents were entitled under clause 32(1)(b) to appeal against a condition attached to a licence under clause 17. She cautioned that the proposed addition might lead to confusion on the application of the clause. To allay the Chairmans concern, SALD (Atg) suggested replacing the phrase "it considers appropriate" with "it considers to be in the public interest". The Assistant Legal Adviser advised that while conditions so prescribed under the Chairmans proposal would be more objective in nature, it was not uncommon for licensing authorities to be accorded greater flexibility in attaching additional conditions to licences as and when necessary. The Chairman undertook to consider members views on behalf of the Democratic Party, although he remained unconvinced that confusion might arise as a result of the proposed inclusion.
8. In response to members, SALD (Atg) explained that clause 20(1)(a) aimed at spelling out the composition of estate agency companies; these should comprise a certain number of licensed estate agents to be prescribed by EAA through subsidiary legislation. She however agreed with members on the need to include such a phrase as "or proportion" after the word "number" in the clause to eliminate possible grey areas. Hon Edward S T HO considered it inappropriate for the Administration to prescribe a fixed number of directors for a company. Reference should be made to the Architects Registration Ordinance where only one registered architect was required to take full control and management of the business of a company, even if such a company carried out multi-disciplinary practices. PAS for H clarified that the size of estate agency companies was not a major concern of the Administration when drawing up clause 20(1)(a). He agreed that it was basically sufficient for an estate agency company to have one licensed agent to act as director although large-scale estate agents could have more than one licensed agent. Members suggestion for inclusion of the phrase "or proportion" in the clause would however be duly considered.
9. PAS for H undertook to consider the suggestions outlined in the information paper prepared by Hon NGAN Kam-chuen, as well as the proposed deletion of clause 27.
10. Mr NGAN considered it impractical for estate agents to disclose such interests as commission to clients having regard to the dynamic changes in the market value of properties. He was of the view that clients would be fully aware of these changes in view of the availability of property information. AS for H emphasized the need for estate agents to disclose fully to their clients their interest in property transactions, in particular when the estate agents were representing both the vendor and the purchaser, to safeguard against misrepresentation of facts and conflict of interest. Such disclosure was compatible with the Bill of Rights Ordinance as confirmed by AGC, and would be confined to pecuniary interest of estate agents in property transactions. Mrs CHOW supported retention of the clause as this was essential for consumer protection, particularly in the case of dual representation. Mr NGAN agreed to consider members views.
11. The Chairman expressed reservations on the need for EAA to examine accounts other than those involving clients money, and suggested confining the scope of clause 38(1) to clients accounts only. While agreeing in principle with the Chairman, Mrs CHOW considered a need for the Administration to specify in clause 29 on Investigations circumstances under which EAA could have access to accounting documents, such as the illegal transfer of clients money to estate agents accounts. PAS for H took note of members views but advised that clause 39 had provided for estate agents to keep clients money in accounts which were separate from the agents own business accounts; this would serve as a proper safeguard.
12. The Chairman remained of the view that the provisions under clause 39(3) for EAA to disclose at liberty information about estate agents accounts to the Crown Prosecutor for use in any prosecution were too broad, and that the Administration should consider re-defining the clause. AS for H acknowledged the members concern and agreed that the phrase "at liberty" might need to be spelt out clearly. She supplemented that as there was no express provision in the Bill forbidding disclosure of information to the Crown Prosecutor, the Administration was examining with AGC whether it was appropriate to delete the clause from the Bill.
13. In response to the Chairman, SALD (Atg) affirmed that subsequent to previous discussions on clause 40, consideration had been given to including clause 37(1)(a)(ii) in clause 40(3)(a) so that managers of estate agents would also be responsible for verifying the accuracy of information provided by employers of the managers.
14. Members considered the provisions under clause 40(4)(a)(i)(A) for managers to attend regularly and for significant periods at the offices too detailed for a primary legislation. Furthermore, it would be difficult to quantify such terms as "regularly" and "significant" in a concrete manner. PAS for H emphasized that the spirit of clause 40(4)(a)(i)(A) was to ensure effective control of estate agent offices by qualified licensed estate agents. The Administration was however prepared to re-phrase the clause if members considered such provisions too vague.
15. A member considered that clause 37 should be linked with clause 47(a) to ensure accuracy of property information in advertisements. However, in view of the dynamic situation of the property market and property prices, estate agents should be deemed to have fulfilled their obligations if they had truly reflected vendors instructions in the initial advertisements. She also held the view that offences relating to willful deceit should be subject to criminal sanctions while non-compliance due to negligence would be a matter of disciplinary actions. AS for H appreciated the members suggestion and advised that consequent upon previous discussions, consideration was being given to improve the wording of "false, inaccurate or misleading" in clause 47 to allay the worries of estate agents.
16. As to whether the transfer of cases by way of sub-contracts among estate agents would be allowed, PAS for H advised that this was prohibited as estate agents could escape from the regulatory system by virtue of being sub-contractors. This would reduce the extent of consumer protection under the Bill. Mrs CHOW however took a different view and pointed out that the transfer of cases among estate agents was a normal business practice of the trade. Moreover, the provisions under clause 37 for estate agents to disclose fully to their clients (the vendor and/or purchaser) their interest in property transactions had provided for consumer protection. Some members suggested including a specific provision to cover possibilities of advertisements being passed by estate agents to whom cases had been transferred. Hon LEE Wing-tat was opposed to such an approach as this would run contrary to the spirit of the Bill. It would be more appropriate for vendors to appoint multiple agents. Mr NGAN did not agree with Mr LEE as vendors might be anxious to sell their properties as soon as possible. He remarked that vendors who preferred sole agency could delete the provision from the agreements. SALD (Atg) advised that in reality it might be possible to include in estate agency agreements a specific provision for the contracting out of advertisements, and that sub-contractors concerned would be required to verify relevant property information by virtue of clause 47(1)(a) only if an estate agency agreement had been executed subsequently. PAS for H supplemented that the transfer of cases among estate agents would not create problems so long as the vendor concerned agreed to such an arrangement in an estate agency agreement and the estate agent concerned would be bounded by the duties under clause 37. He added that clause 50(2) had provided flexibility for EAA to prescribe by regulations particulars to be included in documents embodying estate agency agreements. Nevertheless, the Administration would consider refining clause 47 having regard to members views.
17. Before concluding, the Chairman reminded members of the next meeting scheduled for Tuesday, 17 December 1996, at 10:45 am. Members who wished to discuss other clauses were requested to notify the Clerk.
18. There being no other business, the meeting closed at 10:40 am.

When we hear the word patience, we probably think of the virtue that enables us to wait. That’s one way of looking at it, but Spirit-led patience is also much more. Patience is longsuffering. It involves more than passive waiting; it is active forbearance. It is a deliberate willingness to put up with disagreeable things in pursuit of higher goals.
The best example of patience in the Bible is God himself. A number of times, God is described as being “slow to anger” (see Exodus 34:6; Psalm 103:8). This phrase captures what true patience is. Patient people do more than just wait. They actively restrain their rightful anger and frustration. For a higher purpose, they put up with things that they know are wrong.
This is the attitude our longsuffering God has toward sinful people. For Paul, the “immense patience” of Jesus meant that God put up with all his wickedness for a long time before showing mercy to him. Paul calls himself “the worst of sinners,” reflecting back on the time of his life when he persecuted Christians (see Acts 7:54-8:3). But God had other plans for Paul (Acts 9:1-31; 13:1-28:31). That could easily be the testimony of every believer.
How wonderful that God’s love rests on his own capacity for goodness, and not our own!
Dear Lord, thank you for being patient with us. Forgive us for all we do wrong, and help us to be living testimonies of your mercy. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

When it comes to manufacturing electronic components, few things are as important as silicon wafer dicing . But what is exactly meant by this term and what does it entail? Here is a breakdown in layman’s terms about the process of wafer dicing.
During this very important process, there will be die removed from the silicon wafer. This is done after the processing of the semiconductor wafer is complete. The dicing is typically done by one of three ways. The first method is done by scribing and breaking the wafer, the second is by using a machine called a dicing saw to mechanically saw the wafer, and the third method is to cut it with a laser. No matter what method is used, it will be an automated one. The automation is to ensure that the process is done in as precise a manner as possible as well as accurately as possible.
After this process of , silicon wafer dicing is complete, the wafers will then be placed in a chip carrier where they can then be used in building a vast array of electronic devices and gadgets including computers, smartphones, and a host of others.
When the process of dicing is actually going on, the wafers will be held in place by what is known as dicing tape. This is a type of tape which has a sticky side to ensure it is held on a thin frame of sheet metal. The tape typically comes in two varieties. Tape with a UV cure is used for smaller wafers while tape without UV curing is used for wafers of a larger size. After being diced, the wafers stay stuck to the tape until they are removed by special equipment called die sorters. This happens much further down the assembly process.

He was accused of providing protection in exchange for bribes over about five years, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Newark.
More than $100,000 in brothel bribes bought protection from a former New Jersey officer, according to charges brought by the U.S. Attorney's Office.
While in uniform as a Newark police officer, Julio Rivera approached the owners of three brothels and sought cash instead of arresting them, according to a statement from the office of U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito.
Rivera got payments between $200 and $800 weekly, according to the indictment against him. He agreed to shield one brothel owner from arrest and agreed to use police resources to check the license plate of a car parked near one brothel location to make sure it wasn't a police vehicle, according to the indictment. Read Rivera's indictment at the bottom of this story and learn more about what an indictment means in the video above.
The payments to Rivera totaled more than six figures between 2011 and 2016, the U.S. Attorney's statement shows. Rivera is also accused of keeping the payments secret from his tax preparer, so his income was understated on tax returns for five years.
Rivera, 49, of Old Bridge, was charged with 14 crimes, including three counts of extortion under color of official right, six counts of bribery, and five counts of aiding and assisting in the preparation of false tax returns.
Rivera retired as a sergeant in May after nearly 24 years with the department, according to spokesperson Catherine Adams.

Christopher Pyne has finally recognised his government has failed to make sure Australia has the skills to build ships we need for our country's security. It’s a shame it’s taken him so long to get there.
There’s only one problem: where are the jobs?
The bald truth is the Turnbull government is cutting jobs from ASC Pty Ltd, not adding them.
Here’s another truth: these cuts are because the Turnbull government neglected local industry. The ‘Valley of Death’ which has cost Australia nearly 1,000 jobs due to the Government’s inability to deliver national ship-building projects for local industry, was created by the Liberal government’s decision not to build our new supply ships here.
Today’s announcement won't guarantee a single job for a single automotive worker this year - or any year.
Now that the minister has recognised his government has utterly failed on skills, it's time he admitted he’s utterly failed on jobs.
