It's been a bit longer than I like since I've made a post here. In truth, I've been putting a lot of my posting effort over on blog.caddcommunity.com, beefing up the technical posts on that site. It's been fun, but I have missed dropping a note or two over here.
I figured there's not much need to offer up Revit tips, but there are certainly tech and industry related things I'd like to write about, things that don't fit in over at the other site.
I've been doing a lot of webinars lately, and for the presenter it is an odd way to present. It took a couple runs, but I finally don't feel TOO weird talking to an empty room, and pretending there are people there. It also took me a couple runs to finally get a setup that makes me feel confident in presenting online. I had to steal a neighbor's monitor, but he hasn't noticed that it's missing yet.
Above is what I see when I present. The left most monitor, the laptop, is the actual screen that is being presented. I found that some programs can throw me some graphics glitches when GoToWhatever is running and the program is not on the primary monitor. So anything on that screen gets shown. I typically also dial down my resolution a bit when I present.
Working our way right, the first stand alone monitor I have split: the left half shows me the PowerPoint presenter view with my notes, upcoming slide, etc. But even if I am mainly doing a software demo, I keep that running because it has a big clock on it. Next to that is OneNote that has the outline of the presentation I am doing, to make sure I hit all the key points.
On the table next to that monitor is my Cthulhu mug… Always good to have an Elder One keeping an eye on you.
The landscape oriented monitor has a couple of functions. I keep most of the GoTo windows open there including the chat window, the questions window, the audience view window, and then the main menu so I can click the record button, or make sure my audio is going through. If I have multiple programs to demo, I will also keep them open and cascaded on top of each other so I can just drag and drop them onto the presentation monitor when I need them. I prefer that over Alt-Tab or Windows-Tab. I always seem to miss the program I want when I Tab through. This gives me a lot more control. THen typically I just close the program when I am done with it.
So that's my layout. If you need to do online presentations, maybe you can grab something from this. Does it justify me having three monitors? Probably not. But it does make it easier for me to keep an eye on everything I need to when I'm in my room talking to nobody.

|Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics Seminar I
|Circuit Lower Bounds for Nondeterministic Quasi-Polytime: An Easy Witness Lemma for NP and NQP
|Cody Murray
|Massachusetts Institute of Technology
|Monday, March 26
|11:00am - 12:15pm/Simonyi Hall 101
|Video Link:
We prove that if every problem in NP has n^k-size circuits for a fixed constant k, then for every NP-verifier and every yes-instance x of length n for that verifier, the verifier's search space has a witness for x that can be encoded with a circuit of only n^O(k^3) size. An analogous statement is proved for nondeterministic quasi-polynomial time, i.e., NQP = NTIME[n^(log n)^O(1)]. This significantly extends the Easy Witness Lemma of Impagliazzo, Kabanets, and Wigderson [JCSS'02] which only held for larger nondeterministic classes such as NEXP.
As a consequence, the connections between circuit-analysis algorithms and circuit lower bounds can be considerably sharpened: algorithms for approximately counting satisfying assignments to given circuits which improve over exhaustive search can imply circuit lower bounds for functions in NQP, or even NP. To illustrate, applying known algorithms for satisfiability of ACC circuits, we conclude that for every fixed k, NQP does not have n^(log^k n)-size ACC circuits.

Trains ride into Rotterdam Central Station and leave again. The polar bears at Blijdorp Zoo jump into the water in their cages and people are hard at work in the harbor of Rotterdam. There is plenty to see at MiniWorld Rotterdam, the biggest indoor miniature world in the Benelux.
Go on a treasure hunt
There are great and funny scenes hidden throughout the miniature world. Ask for the treasure hunt at the entrance and go on a voyage of discovery through MiniWorld Rotterdam. It's not just fun, you'll also learn all about Rotterdam, water management and architecture.
Pre-war buildings
Because Rotterdam was flattened by bombs during WWII, little is left of the old city center. MiniWorld Rotterdam has built replicas of a few of the historic buildings, bringing pre-war Rotterdam back to life.
Day and night
Night falls at MiniWorld Rotterdam every 24 minutes. The light changes and the sun sets. The city and landscape look very different at night.

COMPRION only company offering GCF-validated BIP tests on two different network simulators
It is COMPRION's ambition to cover all requirements included in the GSMA TS.27 NFC Handset Test Book. To ensure compliance of the SIM OTA technologies that are necessary to manage NFC services in the UICC, TS.27 also encompasses testing of the Bearer Independent Protocol (BIP). In total, there are four sets of BIP tests. With today's validation of the latest BIP set as defined in WI 214, containing combined mobile network and Wi-Fi tests, all 4 BIP test sets are available as validated GCF tests on COMPRION SIMfony in combination with the R&S CMW500 network simulator. Since the end of October, COMPRION has already been offering four GCF-validated BIP test sets on COMPRION SIMfony MD8475A. This makes COMPRION the only company so far allowing their customers to use GCF-validated BIP tests on two different network simulators.
BIP is a high-performance communication protocol between the network/server and the (U)SIM allowing faster data exchanges with the (U)SIM than today's SMS channel. The BIP tests refer to the fundamental mobile device features APN and BIP management. Together with the GSMA requirements for UICC-based NFC services, these features ensure the establishment of a proper OTA channel to the UICC. This is necessary to perform remote file and application management scenarios for secure NFC applications that reside in the UICC.
For executing the tests, the test operator needs the COMPRION universal test system UT³ Platform with Device Test Center and a network simulator, either Anritsu MD 8475A (as GCF TP 151) or R&S CMW500 (TP 150).
For more on information, please visit the COMPRION SIMfony product site or contact email@example.com.
COMPRION extends the GlobalPlatform qualified testing scope of Applus+ Laboratories with functional eUICC tests.
COMPRION is the first test provider worldwide to offer WI-508 NR test cases validated at GCF meeting CAG#63.

Fuji HS10 - struggling with focus on close-ups
I've just started using my Fuji HS10 and am struggling to get focus for close-ups or when in macro mode. I find the manual confusing, or maybe I'm just losing grey matter as I get older! Maybe there's a HS10 user who can help me?
Let's use the common example of photographing a bee on a flower. You can't get too close with the camera or you disturb the subject. So you may have a shooting distance of, say, 12inches. Whether in Auto or SRAuto more I have the same difficulties - I can't get it focused in non-macro mode (using manual or autofocus) and I can't get it focused in macro mode (using manual or autofocus) unless I pull way back from the subject and then lose any close-up shots. All this applies however the zoom is set. In autofocus mode if I half-press the shutter button, I can see the focus go from blurred to focused then to blurred again, but my shots are all blurred. I can't get focus to lock.
I am hand-holding the camera, which is how I aim to use it in all cases, carrying a tripod doesn't exactly go with a walk in the country or one of those occasions when you take the camera "just in case". So I understand that some shake might affect the focus - I do get the blur/camera shake symbol and sometimes !AF symbol for failure to focus - even at relatively low levels of zoom. However, I'd had no similar problems with my old Olympus when zooming in macro modes. I've been using Auto or SR Auto in order to let the camera make the most appropriate settings choices, so that I could concentrate on the focus. I really need to master this, since I often take such close-up shots, it's something I could do with my older, cheaper, simpler camera but not yet with my HS10.
I'd appreciate help from those who have gone before.

text: Coventry United Sport Coventry United FC vs Highgate United FC – Match Report & Highlights By Nick Woods Posted on November 23, 2016 6 min read 0 0 519 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Google+ Share on Reddit Share on Pinterest Share on Linkedin Share on Tumblr Coventry United 1-3 Highgate United After a comfortable 5-1 win against Tividale last Tuesday, Coventry United welcomed Highgate United to Sphinx Drive. In a match which Highgate's physicality dominated they managed to stop Coventry playing their normal passing game and were clinical in taking their own chances to win 3-1. Despite the home team upping their game in the second period, they did not create enough to get back into the game. Highgate pressed Coventry into early mistakes, and after a header was saved well by goalkeeper Richard Morris, failure to clear the resulting corner led to a sloppy goal for the away team. David Edwards stooping to head easily from close range. It wasn't long before the lead was doubled, a cross from wide left picking out the head of Lei Brown who dispatched the ball past Morris impressively. Coventry tried to switch to a long ball game, but rather than being any more effective, it seemed to play to the strength of Highgate who lapped up high balls at ease and made light work of the midfield battles. Without the strength of Jean Dakouri in the middle of the park United were unable to get a strong foothold into early proceedings. After half an hour Kevin Thornton used a bit of his magic to trick his way into the box, before being felled by a Highgate defender. A penalty was just reward, but keeper Brendan Bunn showed excellent agility by diving full stretch to somehow keep Cox's well struck spot kick out of the corner of the net. As the second half got underway United seemed to make more purposeful passes and attack with more vigour, manager Anderson had no doubt made himself heard at the break. Thornton was once again brought down in the box, and this time picked up the ball himself to send Bunn the wrong way and halve the deficit. The home team, now invigorated, pushed to find a way back into the match. A couple of half chances from full back Pierre Moudime failed to hit the target, before the previously quiet strike force of Dylan Otshudi and Simeon Townsend linked up, only for the latter to spurn his chance from about 6 yards out. As the home team continued to attempt their fight back into the match, it was in fact Highgate who came up with the killer goal themselves. A corner put in quite high wasn't dealt with by the Coventry defence and Isaac Jagroop rose highest to power the ball home with his head. Although the visitors only had 3 efforts on target they were clinical in finishing them, the fact that all 3 of them were headers tells its own story and points once again to Coventry not dealing with the aerial threat on goal well enough. Game stats Shots (CUFC) (HUFC) On target (5) (3) Off target (7) (5) Corners (12) (6) Free kicks (5) (15) Yellow cards (1) (1) Red cards (0) (0) Offsides (3) (0) Tuesday 22nd November Brocton FC 1-1 Coventry United Coventry took the lead away at bottom of the table Brocton through a Kevin Thornton penalty midway through the first half.

Because we can't get enough of "Come Hither Bill"
Hold up! Before you read on, please read this...
This post was published more than 15 years ago
I keep old posts on the site because I often enjoy reading old content on other people's sites. It can be interesting to see how views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have, to put it mildly, mellowed.
I'm not a believer in brushing the past under the carpet. I've written some offensive rubbish on here in the past: deleting it and pretending it never happened doesn't change that. I hope that stumbling across something that's 15 years old won't offend anyone anew, because I hope that people can understand that what I thought and felt and wrote about then is probably very different to what I think and feel and write about now. It's a relic of an (albeit recent) bygone era.
So, given the age of this post, please bear in mind:
- My views may well have changed in the last 15 years. I have written some very silly things over the years, many of which I find utterly cringeworthy today.
- This post might use words or language in ways which I would now consider highly inappropriate, offensive, embarrassing, or all three.
- Factual information might be outdated.
- Links might be broken, and embedded material might not appear properly.
Okay. Consider yourself duly warned. Read on...
It was bound to happen… Someone has photoshopped those disturbing photos of Bill Gates. There's another photoshopped version here, too.

Close combat training turns victims into survivors, because they have the knowledge to stop evil. Sadly not everyone sees the need for training or even the need to fight back when encountering evil, but personal security should be your number one priority. In California in 1985, Richard Ramirez, a criminal and Satanist, murder 15 people along with many other crimes, and he did not stop until people fought back. Not resisting will not keep you safe, but self defense training will. Do not be a victim, be a fighter.
On a June night in 1984, Ramirez would begin killing, but the killings would not start again until next spring. He would break into homes and rape and kill his victims – stealing whatever he could find. Many bodies had pentagrams carved into them and every scene was bloody. The Los Angeles police department (LAPD) had little to go on at first, but victims were about to tell them they were looking for a tall, boney, Hispanic male with rotten teeth who was killing in the name of Satan.
Things would only get worse when Ramirez began stalking people in San Francisco. The rapids and murderers would become even more frequent, but police would get a break. One woman who was raped twice after watching her fiancée murdered was able to describe the killer and his car – the a neighbor even got license plate number. Although Ramirez abandoned the car, they found his finger prints. The hunt was on and every police officer was on the hunt for the "Night Stalker" – but the police would not be the ones to catch him.
Despite the media revealing his name and face, Ramirez did not stop, but his luck would run out when he tried to steal a car and the owner fought back. After running away from the man Ramirez tried to steal Angelina de la Torres's car. Ramirez said he had a gun and demanded the car, but she screamed for help. Her husband Manuel came running with metal fence post while Jose Burgoin having heard the noise next door was calling police. His sons Jaime and Julio saw what was going on and came running to help – joining Manuel as they chased Ramirez down fitting him the whole way. Jamie recognized Ramirez as the killer, but nobody backed down. Satan's killer who avoided two police departments was taken down hard by three ordinary men who refused to be afraid.
While many people know who Richard Ramirez the "Night Stalker," few people know the names Jaime and Julio Burgoin and Manuel Torres – the brave individuals who fought back and practiced a man who killed at least 15 people and was responsible for many other brutal crimes . They went into close combat with no fear and stopped a killing machine. If you have self defense training you will be more confident and if you're more confident you will fight and if you fight you will live. Evil only wins if you let it so do not stop stay vigilant and do not be afraid to fight.

Top 10 Places To Ride In North America
3. Centennial Lake Road
For the third entry in this list we travel north of the border to Centennial Lake Road in Ontario, Canada. This 60-mile stretch of tarmac rolling and twisting through Ontario's Highlands was resurfaced not too long ago, so hopefully the frigid weather up there hasn't messed it up too much. Last October, Can-Am launched its 2015 Spyder F3 incorporating a two-day ride through the wilds of Ontario. We didn't navigate Centennial Lake Road, but what we did ride was equally awesome. I'd go back and ride in Canada (when it's warm) anytime. Locals say Centennial Lake Road also goes by a couple aliases: Calabogie Road and Black Donald Lake Road. Not far away is Calabogie Motorsports Park. With its 20 turns in 3.05 miles of rolling hills, we hear it's one of the best tracks in Canada.

Christian Apologetics, M.A.
The Master of Arts - Christian Apologetics degree is designed for individuals who desire academic and practical preparation for proclaiming and defending the historic doctrines of the Christian faith. Students are prepared to articulate a Christian worldview reverently, with intelligence, confidence and compassion. The program fosters personal spiritual growth and maturity through guided study of the Scriptures and theology, mutual encouragement in the Christian life and intellectual rigor.
Program Description
The program incorporates knowledge and perspective from many academic disciplines and provides stimulating graduate education for those who wish to engage unbelievers effectively in the world of ideas.
The curriculum is accessible to students who may have little or no formal academic training in biblical studies, theology or philosophy.
Many of the courses in this program are available in a distance learning format that combines short-term campus visits with distance learning. The distance learning program is designed to make the Christian Apologetics degree available to students who cannot relocate to Southern California for the regular residential program. Alternative scheduling is often employed for enhanced instructional effectiveness.
Some courses taken via distance learning have special materials fees. CSAP 521 MD, CSAP 522 MD, and CSAP 550 MD have materials fees of $45. CSAP 601 MD, CSAP 602 MD, and CSAP 603MD have materials fees of $125. CSAP 699 has a course fee of $200.
Independent Study Courses
Independent study courses offer lectures from audio recordings and additional study materials by outstanding theologians, apologists and biblical scholars. On-campus Master of Arts – Christian Apologetics students are limited to 6 independent study credits in their degree program while distance learning students are limited to 12 credits.
This program offers distance learning courses. Courses, seminars, conferences, and related learning experiences generally are scheduled in the evening and on the weekends for the convenience of working adults. Courses are usually seven weeks in length with classes meeting once per week in the evening. Alternative scheduling often is employed for enhanced instructional effectiveness.
Program Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of the Master of Arts – Christian Apologetics, students will be able to:
- Build an intellectual framework to demonstrate students' understanding of the faith and formulate responses to future challenges (ULO 1).
- Demonstrate Christ-like character, so as to offer an effective defense of the gospel (ULO 2).
- Argue effectively to correct misconceptions about historic Christianity; answer the perennial problems that are offered to discredit Christianity intellectually; and make the case proactively that it is reasonable to put one's faith in Christ (ULO 3).
Each Program Learning Outcome (PLO) listed above references at least one of the University Learning Outcomes (ULO 1, 2, 3), which may be found in the General Information section of this catalog.
Admission Requirements
- Students must have completed all bachelor's requirements with a grade point average (GPA) equivalent to a "B" or higher in all undergraduate study prior to the start of the program and must have a bachelor's degree conferred from a regionally accredited institution prior to the start of the second term.
- One pastoral and at least one character reference.
- Official transcripts from all colleges and universities attended. Transcripts must be official, that is, mailed directly from your previous colleges and/or universities in a sealed envelope to the Biola Office of Graduate Admissions.
Note: Official documents for admission or evaluation become part of the student's academic file and normally cannot be returned or copied for distribution.
Graduation Requirements
- Satisfactorily complete 39 semester credits as outlined in the curriculum below.
- Maintain a 2.5 average with no grade below a "C" in all courses to be credited toward graduation. Students are placed on academic probation if their grade point average for any semester falls below 2.5 and will remain on probation as long as the single semester or cumulative grade point average remains below 2.5. Probation students are granted one semester in which to bring their academic work up to the required level (2.5) for continuance in the program. A student cannot graduate while on probation.
- Complete a minimum of 24 credits in the degree program at Biola University. Up to 15 credits of graduate work may be transferred into the program for courses deemed comparable. Core courses may be waived on the basis of two comparable undergraduate courses, with grades of "B" or better in both courses. All degree components, except for CSAP 699, must be completed as graded courses. Students taking courses in the distance-learning format are expected to participate in our on-campus summer lectures for two weeks in June/July.
- Complete the entire program in no more than seven years.
- Meet with department advisor and Graduate Graduation Counselor in the Office of the Registrar one year prior to graduation to declare intent to graduate. (See Graduate Graduation Check description in Admission, Enrollment and Graduation Requirements section.)

Special Abilities
Burrow (10 feet) You have a Burrow speed.
Darkvision (60 feet) You can see in the dark (black and white only).
Digestive Acid (3/day) (Ex) A nailhead can spit a glob of its highly corrosive digestive acid up to 20 feet as a standard action, usable every 1d4+1 rounds. This is a ranged touch attack with no range increment. Creatures struck by this attack take no damage, but the acid deals 1d6 points of acid damage per round to any metallic armor worn by the target. If desired, the target can use a full-round action to wipe off the acid to prevent additional damage.
If the acid reduces the armour's hit points to zero, it disintegrates into a foul smelling ooze. This ooze serves as a food source for the nailhead, nourishing it and allowing it to build upon its carapace.
Unwavering (Ex) A nailhead is both thick skinned and thick skulled, granting it full immunity to nonlethal damage.
Environment underground
Organization solitary, pair, gang (3–6), or hive (10–100 and 1 queen)
Treasure incidental
Nailheads are small anthropods that reside in mines and other caves that are rich in ore. In their natural form, nailheads have soft limbless bodies, resembling oversized silk worms, and pose no threat to adventurers. However, if allowed near any sort of metal, nailheads are capable of ingesting the material and excreting it as metallic silk. The silk has the same qualities of whatever metal was ingested and can be spun into webs and other constructs. Nailheads specifically use this material to craft durable exoskeletons for themselves, complete with their eponymous large spiked horns. Nailheads become aggressive and territorial when armoured in such a manner and can pose a major threat to unprepared adventurers – especially if they've been feasting on particularly remarkable ore.
Nailheads who feed upon blight iron are significantly less hardy than those who have gorged themselves on more substantial metals. Their carapaces crack and splinter easily, and their horns are noticeably smaller.

Feels like ages since I had a day of the Kings… there's singing, and there's Caleb Followill.
The trouble is that I can't do much else when I've got the Kings of Leon on, because I feel kind of manipulated into enjoying it as much as possible. It's the same with the Killers. I thought, for instance, that I could keep writing this at the same time as listening to a KOL mix, but no. I cannot. Too distracting!
It's been a vet-kind of a week this week. There are weeks that go like that. None of mine, really, apart from picking up medicines and food. Tobby will have been here eight months tomorrow, which is seven and a half months longer than I thought he would be. He's still on special muscle-building food, but to be honest, apart from the smell, the only reason I keep him on it is that it's good quality. Not the smell of the food, by the way, but the smells that emanate from his rear. When I put him on different dog food, it's a whole stinky story that you don't need to hear. He still has metacam more days than not, though his wobbles come and go.
I guess it shows what a small town place I live in – when I went to pick up his food, the vet receptionist pointed out the refuge calendars on sale. I thought she'd recognised my coat and the logo on it, and was showing her support. I smiled. "I did the photographs," I said (I don't know why I said that, since I did the whole thing except for the wonderful printing!) and she said, "I know!" and smiled. That was quite weird. In what conversation does it come up? I just don't know. Not to mention I'm on "bisous" terms with the other vet I mainly use – you'd think I spent a lot of money there or something.
Whilst it was Tobby's check-up on Thursday and then the turn of two of my latest foster kitties on Friday, I popped by to get dog food on Saturday and today I've got to take two dogs for a passport check. Tomorrow it's vaccinations and check-ups for my dad's dog. That's a lot of time hanging around in waiting rooms with stressed-out dogs and cats. Hopefully I won't be back there this week with the two kitties. I woke up yesterday and thought one was a gonner for sure – he wasn't moving or crying. He sat in a towel on my knee on a hot-water bottle for a couple of hours and managed to get 5ml of milk into his system – from there, a little of his fight came back. They're both on pills six times a day, and they're dirty and sad and sweet. I've my fingers crossed that they thrive. At four weeks, it shouldn't be so touch-and-go. Still, they've stopped howling all the time and I can only guess the medicines for settling their stomachs is working. It's a shit start to life when you have been left in a plastic bag like the trash when your eyes are barely open.
All the vet visits are generally productive and I don't mind doing them. What's not productive is the number of sagas I've been subjected to of late. Serious to God, I'm stopping answering my phone. I pick it up and someone unleashes an almighty 'he-said-she-said' tale upon me. In fact, this week, I was trying to help someone out and ended up making a phone call to a woman in Hungary, who gave me a full-on and deeply unnecessary lecture about the whys and wherefores of British Customs regulations and the sorry state of affairs regarding compulsory vaccinations in France. Needless to say, it didn't end well. Next year is the year of "I don't have to justify myself to you" and the year I screen all calls through a "Your call will be connected shortly. Please enter your credit card number before proceeding. All calls will be charged at 5 euros a minute."
That should sort the wheat from the chaff.
Thankfully, my to-do list is back under control a little, and once I've sorted out a couple of adoptions on Tuesday (and got through a day full of lessons on Wednesday and Thursday), by 8pm Thursday night, I shall be breathing a little easier. Next Saturday, I'm running a stand at a local charity event and then – heaven help us all – the Mother arrives for a visit next week. It's quite a lot less crazy than December last year where I knitted 31 baubles, let me tell you.

Breastfeeding is an amazing experience for every mother. In addition, this is beneficial both for mother and baby. This moment can form a feeling of attachment between your baby and you. However, when your baby develops his biting habits while breastfeeding, it is hard for you to relax and enjoy.
Nipple bites from your baby can be very painful. This sometimes scares you with feeding sessions and will certainly affect the charm of breastfeeding. Eight ways that will help you prevent baby from biting during breastfeeding are as follows.
1. Pull The Baby Towards The Breast.
A baby breathes through his nose during breastfeeding. As he begins to bite you, pull him closer to you, rather than pulling him away from the breast. In this way, he is forced to open his mouth instinctively to breathe because his nose is blocked. Do it every time your little one bites you. Now you can pull your breasts out. The blocked nose is not a good experience for your baby. Slowly he will stop biting you.
2. Never Scream
Scaring the baby with screaming is not a good option to prevent baby from biting during breastfeeding. This can lead to a condition in which the baby refuses to breastfeed again. This condition is called "nursing strike". On the other hand, sometimes, the baby might consider your screams as part of the game. Then, your child will start biting you repeatedly. Therefore, screaming is not an option to prevent baby from biting during breastfeeding.
3. Initiate a Letdown
A "letdown" reflex that does not work properly could be the cause of a baby biting at the beginning of breastfeeding. As a result, hungry baby who expect more milk to come will tend to bite a nipple. To prevent baby from biting during breastfeeding, massaging the breasts and doing some nipple rolls just before breastfeeding will help initiate a letdown before the baby latches himself to the breast. Another way that make he will not bite is you can try to compress the breasts while the baby is breastfeeding to help him get more milk.
4. Put In A Finger
You will know when he will bite you by watching your baby carefully. Sometimes the baby bites in the middle when the thirst or hunger initially subsides or sometimes towards the end of breastfeeding. Once you see the changes, be prepared to stop breastfeeding. Never hesitate to put your finger in the corner of the child's mouth. Then, pull the nipple out of his mouth.
5. Maintain A Good Position
What plays an important role in healthy breastfeeding is a good position. Find out the comfortable position that suits your baby and you. Then, stick to it. This will prevent baby from biting during breastfeeding.
6. Feed Your Baby Only When He/ She Is Hungry
Breastfeeding is when the baby gets his mother for himself. Therefore, even though he is not hungry, there is the possibility that he is trying to get you to feed him. Maybe it is possible that you try to feed him first if you are going to be busy or have an activity for the next few hours. However, feeding a baby when he is not hungry increases the chances of biting. Therefore, never feed him unless he is hungry if your baby develops a biting habit. You might be able to keep baby from biting you this way.
6. Teach and Warn The Baby
You can warn and teach your baby that biting will not work anymore. For this, you do not have to scream or shout. Stop feeding and let the baby lie in bed. Let him think that you do not pay attention but keep watchful. He will get the signal and will stop biting if he bites you to attract your attention. Repeat the punishment if he bites again. The baby is smart enough to get the signal and eventually stop biting.
7. Talk To Your Baby
When feeding your baby, always talk to him. Try to maintain constant communication like humming, telling a story, or singing the whole time you feed your baby. Say strong "no" whenever his jaws tighten in order to bite. For some babies, it will work if mom gives a firm impression on her face. For some other babies, a warning sound is required. Find out what will work for your little one. Either way, the baby should be able to know the signal.
The final solution to prevent baby from biting during breastfeeding is stopping the feeding session and calmly remove him from the breast. In addition, consult your doctor for advice on what to do if your baby bites due to flu or infection. Besides your baby who often bites you during breastfeeding, another problem you will find is more weight than before pregnancy. Therefore, you also need to learn losing weight after pregnancy that will help you get back to your ideal shape.

Intel's chief executive has resigned after the company discovered he was in a relationship with an employee.
The technology giant said that Brian Krzanich's consensual relationship was in violation of the company's non-fraternisation policy, which applies to all managers.
Chief financial officer Robert Swan will take over as interim CEO immediately and a search for a permanent replacement is under way.
Corporate America has been under intense pressure to enforce workplace policies on gender equality and sexual harassment.
Earlier this month, Guess co-founder Paul Marciano stepped down following a company investigation into allegations of sexual harassment and assault.
John Lasseter, co-founder of Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney's animation chief, also recently said he was resigning over what he called "missteps" with employees.
Mr Krzanich joined Intel in 1982 as an engineer and has been the firm's top executive since 2013.
His departure overshadowed otherwise positive news for the company which expects to post a per-share profit of 99 cents in the second quarter, 13 cents better than Wall Street was expecting, and revenue of 16.9 billion dollars, which is also better than had been projected by industry analysts.

How To: Connect a digitizer to a UNIX platform for use with ARC/INFO
How to connect a digitizer for proper use with ARC/INFO.
The following steps apply to all digitizers and all UNIX platforms:
1. Set up communication parameters.
The digitizer and computer ports must be set up with identical communication parameters. These are the recommended settings:
Baud Rate: 9600
Data Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 1
Parity: No Parity (Disabled)
Data Format: ASCII
Resolution: 1000 lpi (lines per inch)
Report Mode: Point
Local echo: off
Line feed: off
Most digitizers require parameters be set with dip switches or menu soft switches. Refer to your digitizer user manual or the ARC/INFO Device Interface Guide for more specific information.
This is the most important part of digitizer installation regardless of whether the device is supported or not. If your digitizer and your computer can not communicate, ARC/INFO will not recognize what the digitizer is sending.
2. Configure the host machine.
A. Set the permissions on the host port to be rw (read, write) for all. To check the current permissions use the following command:
ls -l /dev/ttya (or whatever tty device you are using)
The above command will return something like this:
lrw-rw-rw- 1 root root 6 Jul 21 11:27 /dev/ttya
If the permissions do not look like this, switch users to root and issue the following to change them:
chmod 666 /dev/ttya
B. Check that the 'login' is disabled for the host port.
Solaris 2.x:
- Go into the ADMINTOOL
- Press the 'Serial Port Manager'
- Highlight the desired Port (a or b)
- Press the 'EDIT' button
- Make sure the Service is DISABLED, if not click 'DISABLED' and then 'APPLY'
- Use SMIT (administrator)
- Select devices -> tty -> change/show char. of tty
- Click on the tty you are using and among the stats shown is the 'enable login' field.
-This should say 'disabled'. If not, click on that field and click on the 'up' arrow.
These instructions may be slightly different depending on your version of AIX.
Generic BSD UNIX:
- Modify the /etc/inittab file so that the entry for getty on the serial port is set to "off" and not respawn. For init to re-read the inittab file run:
# kill -1 1
4. Use the Arc DIGTEST command to test the communications and parameters:
Arc: DIGTEST <format file> /dev/tty00:9600:8bit:none
If DIGTEST does not initialize correctly, then communications have not been established. Check the settings again. If they are correct, then check the cable, and if available, use an in-line tester. If everything is functional, it may be that your digitizer requires a null-modem to properly establish the RS-232C protocol.
If your UNIX system is not listed above, or if you need more detailed information, refer to your operating system documentation.

State Administrative Tribunal
Main Menu
→ News & Media Releases
Media Statement – 3 April 2019
Justice Pritchard returns to the Tribunal as the new President and will commence her five-year term beginning on 4 June 2019.
Previously Justice Pritchard served as Deputy President of the Tribunal after her appointment to the District Court of Western Australia in June 2009. Subsequently, she was appointed as a judge of the Supreme Court of Western Australia in June 2010, and as a judge of the Court of Appeal in September 2018. Although Justice Pritchard is commencing her new role as President, she also will maintain her commissions as a judge of the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal.
The Attorney General John Quigley said "I am delighted a jurist of the calibre of Justice Pritchard will steer the SAT well into the next decade, giving the community renewed confidence in the Tribunal which plays a central mediation and arbitration role in issues of great importance to ordinary Western Australians.
"Justice Pritchard will become the first woman to serve as President of this crucial arm of Western Australia's justice system since the inception of the Tribunal 14 years ago.
"I would like to also thank both of the existing Deputy Presidents of the Tribunal who have continued to provide dedicated service to the State in the period since the former President, Justice Curthoys, returned to the Supreme Court.
"In particular, I acknowledge Deputy President Sharp who has carried out the role of Acting President during that time."

Hundreds of people each weekend drive up the hill to a newly built $12 million church surrounded by soccer fields in a New Jersey community named Zarephath. They worship by singing along with rock-ballad style prayer songs, following lyrics projected on three overhead screens. They sway and lift their arms high overhead, or say the words quietly with their eyes closed.
Drums, several guitars, keyboards and backup singers accompany the prayers. Spotlights shift from purple to blue to red as the mood builds.
"O come to the altar, the Father's arms are open wide," about 300 congregants sang during a recent Sunday service, in a sanctuary that resembles a warehouse-style concert hall, save for two small crosses near the stage. "Forgiveness was bought with the precious blood of Jesus Christ."
The worshipers at the central New Jersey church were of every description — young, old, white, black, Asian, Hispanic. The friendly, name-tag-clad greeters at the entrance of the 70,000-square-foot space were there to help people find Bible study groups or inspirational cards in the gift shop.
In short, Zarephath Christian Church has become a dynamic evangelical congregation. It attracts newcomers via both a 50,000-watt contemporary Christian radio station — Star 99.1 — that can be heard from Pennsylvania to New York City, and a conservative, Jesus-focused message that encourages its 2,500 congregants to hew as closely as possible to the lifestyle of his disciples.
The growth is quite a turn for a local church that until about 10 years ago consisted of fewer than 200 members in a timeworn chapel across Weston Canal Road, on a bathtub of land saddled by repeated floods. And even though its leaders don't talk about it much, the church also represents the local revival of what was one of America's most unusual Protestant denominations.
The church in Zarephath is the flagship congregation of the Pillar of Fire, a Methodist offshoot founded in 1901 by a formidable female preacher, Alma Bridwell White, whose positive legacy of feminism was complicated in the 1920s by her ardent embrace of the Ku Klux Klan. Scholars believe that the Pillar of Fire was the only denomination in America to publicly endorse the Klan, even though individual ministers from other faiths were active in it.
The contradictions of the sect's fiery founder create a kind of puzzle for the church's modern leadership. Pillar of Fire long ago moved away from the hate of the Klan, and its leaders have issued statements denouncing and regretting the church's historic involvement with it. In a sign of how different the modern church is, the local presiding elder of the denomination, Robert Saydee, is an African refugee.
Yet Pillar of Fire owes its existence to Bishop White, the first female bishop of any Christian denomination in American history. Her traces remain everywhere in Zarephath, the agrarian faith community she founded here in 1905 and named for the town where Elijah found comfort from a widow in the Bible. And yet her complicated legacy is virtually ignored by church leaders, who can still disagree about the extent of her intolerance.
As a result, many people who worship each week in Zarephath don't know about the church's history, or even that their church is part of the Pillar of Fire. (Or that the 750-acre parcel that makes up what is essentially the town of Zarephath is owned by the denomination.) The new church is built on the opposite side of the Delaware and Raritan Canal from the denomination's historic home, so it is easy to get there without seeing the old brick Pillar of Fire sign at the entrance to those grounds.
"We like that the church is nondenominational, because we are nondenominational as well," said Sabrina Da Cruz, 34, who drove 40 minutes from Elizabeth, N.J., with her husband and infant to attend a service this summer. "They talk about Jesus, which is what a lot of people need. It's Jesus from beginning to end."
The woman at the center of Zarephath's story was born in 1862 to a poor family in rural Kentucky. Mollie Alma Bridwell, as she was known then, grew up wanting to be a preacher, but was told to marry one instead. Chafing at the restrictions, she started preaching in Denver, where her Methodist preacher husband was posted, and ultimately formed her own church. When a New Jersey widow, inspired by her writings, deeded her 70 acres of farmland between the Millstone River and the Delaware and Raritan Canal, she left Colorado, ultimately separating from her husband, and moved the denomination's headquarters here.
Pillar of Fire gained considerable fame in the first decades of the 20th century, in part because of the oddity of a woman running a religious sect years before women had the right to vote. Puritianical and strident, Bishop White described her church's guiding principles as "emancipation for women and ultra-fundamentalist doctrine." Yet her followers also tried to capture the joy of Christianity in their worship.
To the sound of drums and cymbals, they would march through the aisles and even jump while they prayed, earning them a nickname that stuck, the Holy Jumpers. The New York Times twice sent reporters to Zarephath, once in 1907, and once in 1910, to witness and write about her remarkable faith commune, where dozens of men, women and children in dour uniforms eschewed personal possessions and ran their own schools, printing press and farms.
Driven by curious press accounts, several radio stations, and her publishing operation — Bishop White edited six magazines and wrote some 35 books — membership grew. Dozens of Pillar of Fire churches were founded around the country. Pillar of Fire slowly bought up the surrounding farms around Zarephath, growing the community to some 1,200 acres, with its own ZIP code, power plant, bible college and fire station, church historians recounted.
But in the early 1920s, Pillar of Fire took a turn. Bishop White began preaching about how God had given the nation to white Protestants and needed to be protected against Catholics, Jews, blacks and others who threatened its purity. In that decade, Bishop White wrote three books extolling the K.K.K.'s contributions to America, particularly as a bulwark against what she feared was a Roman Catholic plot to take over the country. She permitted Klan meetings and cross burnings on her church campuses, setting off a riot in Bound Brook, N.J., in 1923 when some residents objected.
At the height of its popularity in the 1920s, scholars believe, as many as six million Americans belonged to the Klan. As its popularity waned in later years, so did Bishop White's support. But it didn't disappear completely. She republished edited versions of her pro-Klan books in 1943, three years before her death, with introductions by her son, the Rev. Arthur K. White, who would lead the denomination until the early 1980s.
The following decades were overall a period of decline for Pillar of Fire in America, though some of its overseas mission churches — in Liberia, for example — flourished. Repeated floods of the Millstone River devastated historic Zarephath several times.
The old dormitory of Alma White Bible College is now boarded up, and a family of beavers is in residence. The old chapel, whose cornerstone was set in 1926, has been closed since flooding from Hurricane Irene in 2011. The radio station, flooded out, now broadcasts from a few miles away in the Somerset section of Franklin Township.
By 2010, the official population of Zarephath, as recorded by the national census, was 37. From a peak of more than 50 domestic congregations, the denomination had shrunk to only a few American churches and mission churches in several foreign countries. But in the 1990s, a new generation of leaders saw promise in this historic place.
One of them was Rob Cruver. Born in 1964 and raised in Zarephath in a family devoted to the Pillar of Fire, he believed the denomination needed to change. After studying to be a physical therapist and a minister in Kentucky, he came home in 1992 to help spark a renaissance.
The radio station switched to a mainstream contemporary Christian music format, featuring upbeat, young hosts. Star 99.1 now reaches some 400,000 listeners per month, not counting its gospel and Christian hip-hop channels streaming online. Alma White College was reopened as Somerset Christian College, with Mr. Cruver as president. In 2013, it was again renamed, as Pillar College, and began offering secular degrees in business administration and other fields at offshoot campuses across New Jersey.
In 2004, Mr. Cruver became senior pastor of the Zarephath church, when its 100 or so worshipers still fit in the old chapel. With his childhood friend from North Brunswick, Raphael Giglio, he set out to change the church to reach young families. Mr. Giglio, who identifies as a Messianic Jew — a Jew who believes Jesus Christ is the messiah — had been preaching and writing worship songs at a contemporary evangelical church in Tennessee. Mr. Cruver visited and thought something similar could work in Zarephath, Mr. Giglio recounted.
Following the template of other contemporary evangelical churches, Zarephath Christian Church embraced power-chord-driven prayer ballads, line-by-line Bible study, and direct, informal prayers to Jesus. It focused on service projects — a free medical clinic on campus, a food pantry, an urban outreach ministry aimed at young men, overseas mission trips — and downplayed the tangled history of the denomination.
In a sense, what is most unusual about Pillar of Fire is that it still survives.
"What they look like now is totally common across what you could think of as the megachurch type of model," said Richard Flory, senior director of research and evaluation at the University of Southern California Center for Religion and Civic Culture. "A destination worship service, lots of programming, small groups, popular music. What's interesting is that in an effort to grow and become more attractive, they are sort of jettisoning their history in favor of looking like essentially everybody else."
In 2015, Mr. Cruver published a book called "The Blue Jeans Gospel," writing that a relationship with Jesus should be as comfortable as a favorite pair of jeans, which is what he and his ministry staff generally wore when preaching. (And like many evangelical ministers, he and his staff are addressed by their first names: Pastor Rob and Pastor Raphael.) The $12 million church opened, on higher ground from the historic campus, financed by a mixture of donations, land sales and loans from the Pillar of Fire.
New congregants seem to love the result. "For me, I feel that the body here is really filled with the Spirit," said Rich Zebro, 56, from Hillsborough, who has been a Zarephath member for about six years. "The leadership is led by what the Lord would want to have happen."
Cheryl Barker, who is African-American, attended a Sunday service in July with her children. "Everyone is just really accepting, they just accept you how you are," she said. "In the worshiping, you meet so many different people of all different races."
As the new pastors modernized the church, how to handle Bishop White's complex legacy was not really discussed. "It was so far in the past that it just had no relevance to the church at the time," said Mr. Giglio, who is now the interim senior pastor.
"It is something in our past that we cannot hide or deny that it happened," said Robert Saydee, 50, the presiding local Pillar of Fire elder, who emigrated to the United States from Liberia, where he had been educated in a Pillar of Fire mission school. "We are not proud of it at all. But it happened in a history, and things happen to people, and the organization changed tremendously after that, and we never looked back."
As for Bishop White, Mr. Saydee said, "There is no reason to discuss her. We know she is the founder, but there is no discussion or preaching about her. No, we don't do that."
Her own writings serve as impassioned reminders of the intolerance she embraced along with her Christian values. She believed, for example, that blacks, as descendants of Ham, a son of Noah in the Bible, were cursed from birth, and should not mix with whites.
Yet in interviews, Mr. Giglio said he did not think Pillar of Fire "was ever a bigoted or racist organization," though he did allow that it was anti-Catholic. Jim Pearsall, 78, the denomination's archivist, said in an interview with Pillar of Fire leaders in July that he did not think the terms "anti-Semitic" or "anti-Catholic" accurately described Bishop White. Instead, he said, she was "opposed to the meddling of the Roman Catholic Church in politics."
When Mysti Jordan was hired as a morning host at the Pillar of Fire station Star 99.1, the history of the denomination came up only briefly, she said. As a result, she didn't realize that its official call letters, WAWZ, stood for "Alma White, Zarephath."
But with the amnesia about Bishop White also comes the loss of the example of an early feminist leader within conservative Christianity. Zarephath Christian Church does have one female pastor, which remains uncommon among contemporary evangelical churches, whose traditional reading of the Bible often leads to male leadership. Yet the governing board of Pillar of Fire is almost completely male.
Another lesson she tried to teach was about the temptations of ministry. In her sermons, Bishop White had railed against the decadence of modern life, particularly declaring war on male Protestant ministers who used their religious positions to conceal lusts for women, tobacco and other vices, wrote Kathleen M. Blee in her 1991 book, "Women of the Klan."
These warnings reverberate today. Mr. Cruver, the charismatic preacher and author of "The Blue Jeans Gospel," failed to heed them.
In February, he humbled himself before his burgeoning congregation, whose average weekend attendance is now around 1,400. In two Sunday services, he admitted he had been carrying on an adulterous affair and announced he was stepping down from church leadership to repair his family, church members said. (Mr. Cruver declined to comment for this article.)
Studying how other churches have weathered such scandals, Zarephath's leaders said they decided to be as open as possible with their followers about it. The remaining pastors reminded the congregants that they are at church to follow God, not an individual. "And God is still here," said the Rev. Al Shjarback, an assistant pastor.
The church is now searching for a new senior pastor, the latest trial for a denomination which has survived many. Its weekly attendance, said Mr. Giglio, has dropped about 10 percent since Mr. Cruver's departure.
"We are here to share the mission of Jesus Christ," Mr. Saydee said. "That's why we still exist. If we were doing something wrong, we would have probably died like everything else dies. But the message that got us here is still a message that will keep us here."

In the Victorian years there were strict standards for how men and women were to behave. Those who did not follow these rules were ostracized or shunned in polite society. These expectations were set in stone, and especially held dear to the unmarried women in a community.
Rules for the Single Victorian Woman
- Never go out alone. Always be accompanied by a female companion or a male family member.
- Do not ride in a closed carriage with a man who is not a relative.
- Do not receive gentleman callers when alone at the house.
- When receiving a gentleman caller, another family member must be present in the room.
- Never visit an unmarried gentleman at his residence.
- Never speak about impure topics among other single women.
- Do not touch a gentleman when walking together; only accept his hand of assistance if needed to navigate.
- Never address someone unless introduced to them.
In addition, a single woman was to uphold her innocence at all costs. She was not to show her intelligence, but rather, to submit to the gentlemen in the room. Political talk was always scorned upon.
Love and Courtship of the Unmarried Victorian Woman
When it came to love and courtship, an unmarried Victorian woman was encourage to marry up and never down. She often brought a dowry to the marriage, especially if she was from an upper class family, and he must prove that he was of equal or better standing than she by disclosing his financial situation.

This company was formed in 1989 to carry out commercial developments and to date has carried out the conversion of a warehouse to warehouse and offices, which were subsequently let and managed.
A commercial development in Redhill for laboratory research work and manufacture, complete with ancillary offices was constructed using steel frame construction for the production units with sheeted cladding at high level and brickwork at low level. Power floated flooring techniques were adopted.
The linking together of an existing church in Reigate with existing church halls that had been constructed during the Edwardian era produced quite a challenge. This required the inclusion of a new lift shaft to serve the buildings together with new accommodation for caretaker and further church offices and halls. In order to ensure this, work was carried out to integrate the two buildings together. The link site contained some low level dwellings made out of stone, This stone was carefully removed and then cut to form a facing to the new work. Existing stone windows were removed and then replaced in new positions. The work was appreciated by Reigate & Banstead Borough Council and received a Design Award.
