DENVER (CBS4) — Law enforcement took a man into custody Thursday afternoon believed to be involved in the "violent" armed robbery of an Aurora post office late last year.
Willie Dewayne Phillip, 54, of Aurora, surrendered to authorities at 4:35 p..m. Copter4 was overhead during the arrest as Phillip stood next to a Denver Police Department cruiser and several officers at the intersection of Franklin Street and 18th Avenue.
A man dressed in all black clothing entered the U.S. Post Office located at 1074 S. Ironton Street in Aurora on November 8, 2018, and committed, as told to CBS4, "a violent robbery."
Clerks hands were tied with zip-ties, and a semi-automatic handgun was pointed at the head of one of them.
The gunman made off with $5,200 taken from the cash registers.
One customer was inside the facility at the time. No one was injured.
Phillip was named as a suspect in the robbery by investigators less than a month after the incident. A U.S. District Court grand jury indicted Phillip on Dec. 4 on a federal robbery/assault felony charge, and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service asked for the public's help in locating him.
Investigators at that time warned he was considered armed and dangerous.
Less than a week after the robbery, the U.S. Attorney General's Office explained to CBS4 that surveillance video from a nearby restaurant was recovered by investigators, and the license plate of the gunman's getaway vehicle — ironically, a Ford Escape — was obtained from that recording. A female driver was seen as well.
Investigators subsequently arrested Joseph and Phelisha Wheeler, a husband and wife, for their involvement in the crime. CBS4 has learned the case against the couple is still in process.
Officers from the Denver Police Department assisted the USPIS in Thursday's arrest of Phillip.
A search of online public records shows Phillip has previous arrests for drugs, assault, and domestic violence.

Recently, inspired by the upcoming EBUG conference, I felt enthused to try and get a handset with NFC working for payments.
Previously i had been "marooned" on an NFC-less iPhone 4S - it had the Starbucks App which makes for a nice barcode-based demo - but so what?
The device I had in mind was the Samsung Galaxy S4 - so I checked the prerequisites: NFC radio interface - check; embedded Secure Element - check; support of USIM Secure Elements - check; support for microSD SE - check...
Okay so it would seem the device is ready! So I duly purchased a SIM-free (unlocked) Samsung Galaxy S4. So what are the options for this awesome device?
Visa Europe are not quite ready with their Embedded SE solution which is due in December 2013 (I am reliably informed).
Google Wallet? Well unless I am prepared to root the phone and hack it about a bit (and accept some pretty high Multicurrency charges) I am not going to be able to get this to work as Google have not rolled this out in the UK.
Ah - surely my prayers are answered in the EE Cash on Tap! But no, EE will only support Cash on Tap on a Locked (to the EE Network) Handset with a monthly contract. Their friendly tech support guy told me it had to do with crypto on the embedded SE - which
was utter nonsense as their service uses special EE USIM's with SE's (indicated by a N on the SIM). Unfortunately their Branch colleagues are equally clueless.
So - Mobile NFC payments UK - where are you? Have device, will travel. If I can't get it working and: (a.) I'm a slightly obsessively enthusiastic geek; and (b.) I've worked in Cards and Payments for over 13 years - what hope has joe public of getting this
working (or actually wanting to).
Convergence. Ease of use. Consistency.
Mobile wallet, where art thou?
@ap - Created the blog on my iOS 7 iPad using Pages - fixed the formatting now...
I share your disappointment, thinking of all this technology sitting around iddle and useless ...
The only tangible experiences I managed to live, regarding my Android's NFC ability, have been :
1)the extraction of the data on my Passport's chip after keying in my Passport's serial number : great step forward, in the discovery of my personal details !
2)the reading of the ISO-whatever-structured data on the NFC partiction of my credit card, reminding me the issuer Scheme already displayed on the plastic

ELL Online Endorsement Program is a state approved program geared at preparing teachers to effectively educate linguistically diverse students. The movement to an online program provides access to place-bound or time-bound teachers.
The courses are delivered via an online electronic delivery system. Blackboard is the program currently used at Central Washington University. Training tutorials are available on Central's website.
This program is part of the regular offerings at CWU. Consequently, the costs are standard tuition and fees. The exact figure cannot be calculated at this time due to possible rate changes as determined by state and university administration. The current tuition rates for the regular academic year can be found at http://www.cwu.edu/registrar/tuition.
The answer to this question depends on if you are using this program towards a graduate degree or not. If you are seeking only the endorsement you are officially classified as post-baccalaureate and pay the same as undergraduates during the regular academic year. If you are using these courses towards a masters degree at CWU then you would pay the graduate rates. During the summer sessions the cost is determined by the level of the course. You would pay undergraduate rates for courses numbered in the 400s and graduate rates for courses numbered in the 500s.
Our program does not offer a masters degree in Teaching ELL students. However, we do have an arrangement in place that would allow for these courses to be the core for the Master Teacher degree offered by the Department of Educational Foundations and Curriculum.
Our online program has been put together with the idea that all courses will be taken during a single year. However, if for any reason you need to extend the time for completion, it could easily be divided into a two-year cycle. If this were the case, the recommended courses for the first year would be EDBL 514, EDBL 530, EDBL 531, & EDBL 440 . The second year would be EDBL 438, EDF 507, and EDBL 433.
Our Bilingual Education/Teaching ESL programs at CWU also offers a post-baccalaureate certificate entitled Teaching and Linguistic Diversity. This consists of the same four courses for the first year mentioned in Question 6.
There are two steps to entering this program. First, go to the following link and fill out the application form. Second, go to this link http://www.cwu.edu/teacher-certification/endorsement-only-program and follow the instructions provided. Please note that you have the option of entering the program as a non-matriculated student. If you choose this route, you will need to fill out paperwork each quarter. The link to fill out the application to enter as a matriculated student: http://www.cwu.edu/admissions/apply-now. Matriculation is required in order to receive financial aid. If either form asks for campus of choice and online is not an included option, mark CWU-Ellensburg.
The State of Washington requires that all teachers adding an endorsement pass an approved test(s). At this point, it is the Washington Educator Skills Tests-E (WEST-E). Information for registering and preparing for the test can be found at this site: http://www.west.nesinc.com/

- Tell me about past events.
- "You've come a long way since the massacre at Gandara. Pulling your forces back together and setting up a new base of operations was a huge task. But now, it seems like it's time for you Sunspears to leave Kourna. Good luck crossing over into Vabbi, though. This passage is guarded by one of Varesh's demons."

Apex Legends: How to unlock Mirage
14th February 2019 | Mobile Phone Games | No Comments|
Mirage is a unique looking character. Using technology to create holograms of himself, he can be used to misdirect other squads while you sneak up and destroy them. Both Caustic and Mirage are the only two Legends stuck behind a paywall, so you will need some Apex coins to get them out.
What if you hate spending money in games?
There is a way to unlock Mirage without spending your hard-earned pennies but it can't be done on day one. Each time you level up you are awarded 600 legend tokens and you can unlock the Player characters at 12,000 tokens. That means you will need to reach level 20 before you can "purchase" them for free.
If you can't wait that long or you are happy to give Respawn some money, here is the quickest way to do it.
Products used in this guide
- Microsoft: Apex Legends ($10)
- Amazon: Xbox One X ($500)

Now it's time for the supporting ladies. The actresses who usually steal the movie out from under their leading lady or gentleman co-stars. And unlike the past few years, 2012 seems to be something of a wide open race at the moment.
Outside of Tilda Swinton's somewhat surprising win over Ruby Dee in 2008 and hesitation over Melissa Leo in 2011 following her unfortunate "For Your Consideration" incident, there has been little drama over who will this category in quite some time. While it's still relatively early in the season, it's hard to categorize any of the acclaimed performances so far as frontrunners. Amy Adams was fantastic in "The Master," but will the Academy embrace the movie? "Les Miserables'" Anne Hathaway already sounds tear-inducing, but is the role big enough to win Oscar? Sally Field is very good in Spielberg's "Lincoln," but is she really guaranteed a nomination and should she really be in the three-win club? Maggie Smith dishes out enough zingers to take down a small army in "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel," but is it enough to win? And what of unseen performances by Kerry Washington in "Django Unchained" and Frances McDormand in "Promised Land"? And can Shirley MacLaine return to the Oscar stage as a nominee for "Bernie"? Obviously, there are lots of questions to ponder over the coming weeks in this category. It should be one of the more interesting races of 2013.

Louis was the first name of the Prince of Wales' beloved great-uncle Earl Mountbatten of Burma.
Charles will be touched that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge decided to pay tribute to Lord Mountbatten, who was murdered by the IRA in 1979, by naming their son Prince Louis.
The name, also one of Prince George's middle names, is French and German in origin and means "renowned warrior".
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to announce that they have named their son Louis Arthur Charles.— The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (@KensingtonRoyal) April 27, 2018
The baby will be known as His Royal Highness Prince Louis of Cambridge. pic.twitter.com/4DUwsLv5JQ
Louis was the 71st most popular name in England and Wales, according to the latest available figures from the Office for National Statistics.
In 2016, just 911 boys were given the name Louis in England and Wales.
It was more popular in the early 2000s when it ranked around 39th, but was not popular throughout the 20th century.
Louis has been the name of many rulers across the world, including 18 kings of France.
Famous people named Louis include pop star Louis Tomlinson from One Direction and jazz trumpeter Louis Armstrong.
Lord Louis Mountbatten was also the Duke of Edinburgh's uncle and the brother of Philip's mother Princess Alice. He was the last British Viceroy of India before independence in 1947.
He was very close to Charles but Uncle Dickie, as he was known in the family, was assassinated by the IRA in August 1979.
His boat was blown up on a fishing trip off the coast of County Sligo in the Republic of Ireland.
Louis is pronounced Lou-ee, rather than Lew-is
Arthur, Prince Louis's second name, evokes the legend of King Arthur, the mythical leader of the knights of the Round Table.
Arthur has been a popular middle name for royal born sons during the Windsor era – but not a common first name.
One of Charles' middle names, it is also one of William's and was a middle name of the Queen's father, George VI.
The Prince of Wales has released a statement following the birth of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridgeâs third child.— The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall (@ClarenceHouse) April 24, 2018
HRH said: âWe are both so pleased at the news. It is a great joy to have another grandchild, the only trouble is I donât know how I am going to keep up with them.â pic.twitter.com/fZmsd72yeX
The baby's third name Charles, of course, pays tribute to William's father and the baby's grandfather the Prince of Wales.
Its meaning is "man" and it is derived from the German name Karl.
It is considered an unlucky royal name for a king as Charles I was executed and Charles II's reign featured the plague and the Great Fire of London.

Some in the media are trying to portray Paul Ryan as some sort of Free Market Ayn Rand type ideologue. This is of course absurd. Regardless of any rhetoric he might have used in the past, the votes speak for themselves:
Yes on TARP
Yes on No Child Left Behind
Yes on Medicare Drug Benefit
Yes on Iraq War
Yes on Auto Bailout
Yes on Patriot Act
It makes perfect sense for Romney to pick this guy. They're both big government neocons who believe in Empire. As for so called entitlement reform that Ryan has made his name on, he voted for the greatest increase in entitlements (Medicare Part D) since the Great Society. Now we're supposed to believe he's committed to cuts in Medicare? Please.

Physical vs. Energetic Manipulation of DNA, A Case Study
I just watched a PBS broadcast about Epigenetics by Nova. Click this link for a reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avWwfuJYnnI
It compelled me to write a personal case study about how I recently was able to follow techniques taught by Margaret Ruby in her book, The DNA of Healing.
How What We Intend Appears Whether We Like It Or Not!
It has been almost 12 weeks since I sustained a back injury that left me so completely disabled I thought it would be better to be dead than to feel the intense, chronic pain I was suffering! (No I didn't contemplate suicide – that is foolish, but I did wonder why a person would have to suffer pain so intense it caused me to black out and then to dream about the torture pounding on-and-on-and-on-and-on).
How The Story Goes…
I was on a trip away from home for week in Florida on business. The afternoon of my first day, August 17, 2008, I was off-loading my 20lb pack from my shoulder to put it in the car, and twisted in such a way that I felt a little twinge in my upper back. It wasn't the first time I had felt a twinge like that so I didn't give it a second thought. The morning of the second day of my 5 day trip I woke to the alarm and as I turned to stop the alarm a pain shot through my back and right shoulder that make me scream. It was like someone had stabbed a red-hot knife in my back and was twisting it. The pain was so intense it made me weep! I couldn't move, I honestly thought I was going to die – I thought it may be a heart attack or some other serious end to the world. (I know this sounds dramatic, but it's TRUE).
After a hot shower, and some exercises I felt may do some good, I dressed (painfully) and headed to work. The client I was visiting is somewhat different than most of my other clients, in that the CEO of the company and her VP and chief operating officer have a similar philosophy about life to mine. I shared with the COO that I was in some intense pain, and he suggested that a person in the company who practices massage therapy come to my aid. He also called his wife, who practices Raike, to send some healing and pain relieving energy to me.
After the massage and the energy I could actually feel from the Raike from both the COOs wife and the CEO, and some Ibuprofen, I was still in pain but well enough to finish out the morning. After noon I decided to go buy some stronger OTC meds (aspirin, Aleve, and more Motrin). I self medicated and tried meditation and exercises through the day, and in the evening the CEO offered to take me to a recommended healer who uses Raike and massage. It was an intense session for him and me, and in the end I didn't feel much relief, but felt strongly I was on the right track for finding the way to heal the pain.
The next morning I was in more pain than the day before. The CEO was so gracious and kind and suggested I try her Chiropractor, so she took me there and he said I was out of alignment in my 3rd rib. He made the usual CRACKING adjustments, which intensified the pain to a level that nearly made me pass out. He suggested ice packs and sold me one that I could reuse. I was back in bed for the day,
In the evening I was invited to dinner with my client and a group of people who are spiritual beings. We had a most marvelous dinner on the beach with wine and good company and weather that was so beautiful and romantic. They all practiced their forms of spiritual healing for me and this ridiculous pain. Toward the end of the dinner they could see I was still in intense pain, so as they took me home we stopped to get some heavy duty pain meds (Percocet). Taking that medication was the first time since the beginning of this incident I got any relief at all, and actually slept most of the night.
The next morning the CEO took me to her massage therapist (another healer) who used acupuncture – It did relieve the pain for most of the morning, but by the afternoon I was in the same shape (lots of pain). This was Thursday, so I headed to a hotel near the airport, and between the medications and a bottle of 2004 Staggs Leap Petit Syrah, I got a good night's sleep. The trip home was ok because the flight attendant make ice packs for me all the way home, and I drank scotch to self-medicate myself into oblivion. I was so drunk I couldn't drive home so I ended up staying in the hotel at the Sacramento Airport to sober up.
On Sunday, again in so much pain I was unable to sleep and was going crazy, Jim took me to the Kaiser emergency room. I was able to see a doctor who ordered X-Rays and gave me a prescription muscle relaxer (Flexeril) and pain medication (Darvocet). He also ordered a 1-week course of Prednisone. I remembered how that crap made me feel when I had taken it to get over a bout with poison oak a few years before, but thought I would try ANYTHING to get out of this pain, so I followed the orders. I felt mentally numb, but was still in a great deal of pain. I have had a history of higher than normal blood pressure, so I have been on a combo drug, Lisinopril and Hydrochorothiazaimide (ace inhibitor and diuretic). With the pain and additional pain meds my pressure was off the charts, even with the BP meds. (150+/120+) range, so my doctor added another drug, Amlodipine; and at the same time changed the Flexeril to Baclofen (muscle relaxer), and for pain OxyCodone (generic for Percocet). I was finally getting enough pain relief to sleep, but my BP was all over the place. Up and down.
In the 3rd week after an intense deep tissue massage on my back to help relax the muscles, I had a BP crash (83/60). The advice nurse at Kaiser wanted me to call 911, but instead I had Jim take me to the ER again. After a night of observation and blood tests, they determined that the problem was dehydration due to the diuretic in the BP meds, so the ER doc took me off the Hydrochlorothiazimide and sent me home at 1am.
After more than a week of monitoring my BP and finding it was still high (145/110 range), I decided to just stop the meds completely and start over later.
Almost immediately the BP dropped to an average of 130/90. (Which has been my normal BP since I was 26 years of age).
The X-Rays revealed vertebrae closer to each other than normal so I asked for an MRI/Cat Scan of my spinal column. This revealed two herniated discs between C6/C7 in the cervical spine, and between T3/T4 in the thoracic spine. The cervical hernia was putting pressure on my spinal nerves, which resulted in numbness in my right hand.
A Non Traditional Solution
I suppose that's enough to give you a clear picture of the physical issues, so on with the solution!
In week 2 of this catastrophic event, I decided to re-read the book my good friend Lew Brown gave me, entitled "The DNA of Healing" by Margaret Ruby. He gave me the reference for the book when my cataract issue came up in Sept. of 2007, and I "breezed" through it, but didn't actually practice the healing procedures because the surgery was scheduled for a week after I acquired the book.
After reading the book, I decided to put into practice the specific recommendations of the book. I discovered the following:
- The physical problem I was experiencing was a result of inherited DNA memory from an ancestor on my Father's-Father's side of the family 42 to 50 generations ago.It was a presentation of physical problem that would diffuse the REAL problem of feeling rejected/unsupported by those closest to you.
- The emotion that resurrects this physical pain is related to feeling unsupported, and shows up as anger or intense reprimand.
- Then I found that the first time it presented itself in my physical life today is 1962.This is the year we moved to Washington (Tacoma) because of the "Bay of Pigs" incident (see history). I felt alone and lost. I had unusually large ears compared to my classmates, so I was called names like "Dumbo the Elephant" by my new peers. I felt alone and on my own as I walked to school each day. I felt my teachers were unsupportive, and because of my newness in with my classmates I felt UNSUPPORTED in most every aspect of my life.
- This feeling of being unsupported was obvious and intense again in Jr. High School, when my English teacher grabbed a sentimental letter I was writing to my maternal grandmother, Madeleine, and read it in front of the class as an example of inattention and bad behavior.
- The emotion can be replaced with love and understanding and self-support, and that the DNA memory of that ancestor from all those generations ago, can be changed, and healing begin.
After only two weeks of meditation to "replace" the memory in my DNA, my Kaiser physical therapist said, "I don't know what you're doing but KEEP DOING IT. She is in her 50s, and has clearly been doing her work for many years. She also said, "In my entire career no one with the injury you have sustained has made so much healing progress as I see in you in such a short time." – She indicated that to heal from such an injury took three to six months with intense physical therapy, and that some people never fully recover to normal functioning.
At the 4th week after the injury I was no longer taking any pain medication, and have been completely pain free since. I still have some residual numbness in my right middle and ring finger that is more intense at some times than others, but the physical therapist said it could be up to 18 months for that to completely go away after such an injury.
I continue to meditate on it, and have also adopted a routine of Yoga stretching exercises that seem to be helping me too.
A footnote to this is that I have been monitoring my blood pressure each day, and it stays a little higher than normal (they call it borderline), so it will be next issue to repair using this method.
Physical vs. Energetic Manipulation of DNA
So, how does the "DNA of Healing" compare with the broadcast I saw today about Epigenetics?
The Nova broadcast on Epigenetics is a recent scientific discovery about how genetic code can be altered by "epigenetics" – these are proteins that turn on or turn off certain genes which seem to be the root cause of disease. They studied twins over many generations (ages 2 to 76), and discovered that behavioral and physical differences in identical twins as they grew older, and how synchrony grows apart is a result of epigenetic differences. These can be expressed through foods, behaviors (nurturing from mother and family members), and outside influences from society. They are actually using drugs that turn on healing properties in genes to heal cancers that were once incurable because of this discovery.
What this scientific study and presentation did for me was to confirm that the teachings of Margaret Ruby, and others like her, have been right on the mark for many years! The "DNA of Healing" is a method of affecting genes through epigenetics using energetic methods (meditation, behavior modification, etc.) rather than physical methods (drugs, radiation, etc).
We have been moving into a new age for some time, but it seems to me knowledge that was once thought to be faith-based and mythical is now being supported by science more rapidly than ever in our known history.
I hope that my case study serves to help others who wish to change their lives both physically and financially using these techniques.

Taste Test - Ansible, Salt, Puppet, Chef
About a month ago, I took the taste-test by Matt Jaynes, comparing Ansible, Salt, Puppet, and Chef. I had some very basic experience with Puppet and familiarity with Chef, but hadn't really delved into any of the tools.
I had purchased the book about 6 months ago, so I was using version 1. I just noticed that he has updated the book, so the workarounds below may no longer apply. The version I had was working against Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, whereas I ran against 14.04 and the latest versions of each of the tools.
I highly recommend the book, as it repeats the same scenario with SSH plus 4 different tools yet takes the pain out of learning the tools.
You'll see that he states its not for people working in the Windows stack, but I disagree. The book does assume you have a background with Linux and some familiarity with SSH, but that's probably not required. You'll have the commands you need to run, and you can always look up the topics or commands to get a better understanding. And, I know if you're reading this post, you probably know me, so just reach out to me whenever you hit any snags and I can guide you through it. I guess if you don't know me, thanks for stopping by!!! Go ahead and reach out anyway if you hit snags.
&<@(&#$ RANT!!!!!!!!!! and the reason for taking this taste test.
My motivation was, well simply, I'm absolutely sick of the notion of having to write your own deployment tool to deploy code in the Windows stack. I have some experience with BuildMaster and knew about Puppet and Chef, but I wanted more exposure.
I've worked in the Windows stack my entire career (and my liver hates me for it) and every company I've worked with has some convoluted process to ship code. It's a problem that plagues Windows development, and it started back when they decided the mouse and dumbass UI was their key to dominating the market.
Most efforts are some cobbled together process that involves expensive, terrible and outdated tools, coupled together with some scripting glue, all of which are so fragile everyone is afraid to touch them. The amount of manual effort I've seen it take to ship code on the Windows stack are absolute bullshit and extremely error-prone. I've never been one to be accused of praising Microsoft, so this rant probably comes as no surprise, but I'm just absolutely tired of it and all the hoops you have to jump through just to ship some stupid 1s and 0s.
Admittedly, not all of the blame falls on Microsoft… maybe only 90% of the fault is theirs. OK It's probably more like 51%, but why not shift the blame to what their market share is, because until recently they were strictly tight-lipped and closed source company. Anyway, all of us stupid .Net developers perpetuate the problem by not forcing any kind of conventions on our processes, and putting up with the absolute crap they force on us.
I could go on ranting for days, and probably still only touch the surface of my anger against this stack, but our failure to impart any kind of standards makes our lives difficult. In turn, that guarantees that you must have some technical idiot to maintain the chaos; they'll probably make the problem even worse and make your process even more fragile, and the stupid pattern just continues. I'm absolutely sick of it.
Rant over, I hope. Enter, Continuous Delivery tools, and then we can hopefully figure out how to bend them to work with Windows and impart some conventions on how we act. I'm talking about so much more than just putting your application at some ridiculously long file path with spaces and parentheses and a processor identifier…
Again, this is based on version 1 of the book. This section should help with all of the tools, but then you'll get into a section for each later on.
+ There are a few tasks to do on all machines that will help.
- **add keychain** *(for saving ssh keys)*
- **edit /etc/hosts** on each, adding master in puppy & kitty, and
puppy & kitty on master
- **symlink for nginx**:
This book uses Ubuntu 12.04, and the nginx version used in
this book references `/usr/share/nginx/www/` as the web root.
However, using the latest nginx 1.4.6 & Ubuntu 14.04, the web root is
`/usr/share/nginx/html`. This needs to be adjusted for in all of the
instruction here, *OR*, as you're setting up your clean environments,
create the target directory and symlink to it:
mkdir -p /usr/share/nginx/html
ln -s /usr/share/nginx/html /usr/share/nginx/www
+ If I give access to others, I should either remove the password from
the ssh files or set up alternate paths in the .ssh/config
+ Page 66: adding bootstrappers to puppy and kitty
- the puppy.dev and kitty.dev need to be listed in the
/etc/hosts file on the work.dev machine; it doesn't take this from
the master.dev machine (I tested it)
- also, it uses the ssh keys from work.dev, not master.dev; odd. But
if you use a different private ssh key on the work.dev than the
master.dev (which I did after I created it) then you'll need to
register it's key on the puppy.dev and kitty.dev machines as well.
- and, it looks like the clones need to have /etc/hosts entries to
master as well. joy. It makes it through a lot and then throws a
network error later.
+ Page 72: the referenced debian package is old and missing.
Names / versions can be searched for [here](http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/puppetlabs_package_repositories.html)
but if you know exactly what you need, just find the correct package
from the [apt page](https://apt.puppetlabs.com/). 14.04 is Trusty.
+ Page 73: when launching the clients, a warning is thrown but doesn't
seem to prevent execution:
> Warning: Setting templatedir is deprecated. See
> http://links.puppetlabs.com/env-settings-deprecations
> (at /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/settings.rb:1095:in
> \`block in issue_deprecations')
To resolve this, simply comment out that line in the `[main]` section
of `/etc/puppet/puppet.conf`:
`# templatedir=$confdir/templates # deprecated`
If you want to skip reading the full book, just do Ansible. It probably wouldn't hurt to know Chef and Puppet as well, as they're very popular, but that's just handy if you go somewhere else that already has this established.
OH! And my D.O. bill, $0.25! I was pretty diligent about destroying the servers when I wasn't using them. That's a bit wasteful to save a few pennies but there were a few gaps in between me being able to complete this and I didn't want to pay for them sitting idle.
Then, adding the promo code UBUNTUDROPLET, I received a $10.00 credit!
Onto Ansible + Windows!

It may be the weekend, but there's no rest for The Lurker.
Our man is here to answer all your burning rugby league questions.
This week there's news on:
- Is Garth Brennan the most under pressure coach?
- How close is Jack Bird to returning to The Shire?
- Will Parramatta regret re-signing Jarryd Hayne?
Read on below all the latest...
Jamie Barrow: #asklurkWhat's happening at the Titans? Who is taking over?
The Lurker: Brennan still has a year to run - he will probably get it, but will need to win some early games.
Taj Singh:#AskLurkKnights desperately need a big experienced bopper or 2 to complete their roster, who should they target for 2019?
The Lurker: Everyone is looking for props… none on the market sadly. Raiders in same boat. I'd be asking Cronulla about Ava Seumanufagai.
Kai Mcwhirter: Chances of Bird landing back at Cronulla?
The Lurker: Some chance… but would you want him? There are major concerns over his body.
@danaan_ker: @TheParraEelsShould pay around $500k to piss@M_Jennings_03off That spare $300k could be used well to keep some young talent at the club that are willing to give 100% every match, no just when they feel like it. But knowing Parra they won't and they'll let the next big thing go.
The Lurker:Fair point - but who in their right mind would even pay $300K for Jennings the way he is going???
Biscay Ruler: Segeyaro has been in great form….surely Cronulla want to hold onto him?
The Lurker: Not on the money Seggy wants. He will end up at the Dogs and Sharks will put faith in the young guys coming through.
The Hound: Will Parra regret re-signing Jarryd Hayne if they decide to go with him again?
The Lurker: Until about July, yes. Then the Plane will fire up for the last four or five weeks.
Cee Minor: What sort of money we talking about with the Cronulla cap affair? I'm hearing it was a small TPA.
The Lurker: Correct…under 50k from what I am led to believe. They will get a slap on the wrist – unless the computer hard drives show up something sinister.
Russell Cox: Is Trent Barrett serious? Complaining about lack of furniture? WTF? For $600k a year I'd sit on a cricket stump – pointy end up!!
The Lurker: Yeah, it's not a good look. Baz has been badly advised throughout all this. The average fan puts up with a lot wore at their workplace…you just get on with it.
@DamienGarth: Tigers need outside backs... Thompson back but Naqaima goes, no MWZ...Mahne needs to move to forwards...Chee Kam not the answer
The Lurker: I totally agree with you. The roster does little to excite me and I see them missing the eight again next year.
@janis_matteus: Has Jason Demetriou been considered for the Dragons - knows the club - etc etc?
The Lurker: He should be considered but I doubt it. They are blindly going with Mary. He seems devoid of ideas and answers to me. Pray for a finals miracle.

I am currently an Australian Research Council DECRA Fellow, working on the project Youth Leadership and the Future of Peace and Security.
This project explores the role of youth-led advocacy and engagement in the context of the establishment of an international 'Youth, Peace and Security agenda'. It seeks to examine the role of youth in local, national and international contexts to contribute to more inclusive, durable peace. It aims to generate new insights into best practice for including youth in peace and security policies, and contribute to growing global recognition of youth peace advocacy by providing richer understandings of how to support and empower youth in conflict-affected contexts.

The IsInRange function family is currently placed in the UnitMotion component. Which is stupid since, why does a range check depend on being able to move? These function might (and will be in some of my WIP's) become useful for buildings and other non-unitMotion entities. So we need to move these function to a better place.
This patch is based on D13 (at least a split of it) with wraitii's approval. There and here the functions are moved to the ObstructionManager, since that is a system component and these functions use some of that. However if someone proposes something better, we can ship with that. (Do notice that "position" is not really an option due to the isPointinPointRange function, which doesn't require it to be units. And we use this for some cases in the other functions.)
What is changed based on D13:
- remove IsPointInTarget range, since that is a duplicate of IsInPoint range,
- Add support for square to square checks,
- Better support for sphere-square minrange
- rounding fix instead of navcell

The Golden Globes will once again be the talk of Tinseltown this week as we build up to the 70th edition of the awards ceremony taking place next weekend.
In preparation of the big night at Beverly Hills Hilton, we've looked over the nominees for the best actress categories in the world of TV and given our verdicts as to not only who we want to win, but how likely it is that our dreams come true.
Best Actress in a Drama Series – Claire Danes
She won last year and yet again she's the outstanding candidate to take the prize. While Connie Britton is incredibly charming as country musician Rayna, Claire Danes is producing the best performance of her career so far as the utterly flawed Carrie.
From the way that she conveys the turmoil behind Carrie's eyes in one glance to the brittle, breaking tone she puts into her voice, Danes is utterly captivating throughout the show, taking obstacles in her stride that most actresses would need a rather large ladder to get over.
Likelihood of winning – 9/10
Having won last year, the Homeland actress will be the hot favourite once again.
For the criticisms the second series has had (although you won't be hearing any coming from us Homeland-aholics) but Danes has continued to be lauded throughout the second season of the show with rightful reason.
Despite the brilliant scripts, the edge-of-your-seat tension and a group of characters so rounded their positively spherical, Danes remains the biggest jewel in a crown so heavy you need scaffolding to hold it up.
This is finest Claire Danes has ever been, and she looks set to be rewarded once again this month.
Best Actress Comedy Series – Lena Dunham
While we love Zooey Deschanel's performance as the utterly kooky Jess and Amy Poehler is always a highlight, its Lena Dunham that we think should pick up the award and cap of a brilliant year for her.
It's the lengths of self-deprecation that Dunham goes to though that makes her truly worthy of the prize, revelling in the unglamorous world of real-life New York.
While it's easy for Dunham to recite her own writing, Dunham's ability with emotional fragility is what makes her truly stand out as an actress as well as a writer. She made Hanna Horvath so much more than the she was on paper and brought a huge amount of charm to a character that could have so easily been hopelessly annoying.
Likelihood of winning – 6/10
This is a category absolutely chock filled with quality, with all of the five nominees having delivered brilliant performances.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus will be the favourite after her victory at the Emmys, but there's not a whole lot to choose between the nominees with all rightfully praised for being on the cutting edge of female comedy on TV.
It all depends on if the judging panel wants to reward a pure actor doing a comedy turn our if they want to honour one of the brightest comers out there that evening. If they decide to do the later, I don't think too many people would kick up a fuss.
Best Supporting Actress – Maggie Smith
Maggie Smith is a British institution. For years we've all loved her, but her wonderful performance in Downton Abbey as the quick witted Dowager Countess is one of her most enjoyable turns yet on screen.
Even during the patchier moments of the show, Smith's been a talisman for the warm humour and clever writing that made us fall in love with the period drama to begin with. The character may be brilliant, but she's truly brought to life by Smith's cracking performance.
While we loved Hayden Panettiere's brilliant comeback as the wonderfully bitchy and success hungry Juliette in the highly underrated Nashville, it's a prize we'd love to see Maggie Smith swipe.
Likelihood of winning – 9/10
America loves Downton Abbey even more than the UK, and Maggie Smith is easily the show's ace in the hole. With the Emmy win under her belt this yeah and after being snubbed last time around for this prize, we think the odds are definitely in favour of Dame Maggie taking home the Globe.
Best Actress Miniseries - Julianne Moore
Julianne Moore has always seemed like the bridesmaid when it comes to major awards. Nominated at the Oscars four times, the BAFTAs three times and the Golden Globes a massive seven times without a victory in any of the three ceremonies, she's always come close without ever getting the glory.
With this amazing performance though, we once again think that Moore should be rewarded for her amazing efforts, as in Game Change she is utterly transformed into Sarah Palin. Mesmerising throughout, Moore's is a perfect example of a biopic performance.
Likelihood of winning – 9/10
We'd set of the party poppers already and bring out the cake right now for Julianne Moore, as she looks as nailed on a win as anyone does at this year's awards.
She's utterly pitch perfect in the role of Palin, capturing not only the ridiculous, but also the humane side of the Alaskan politician. If she doesn't add pick her first solo Golden Globe this time around, we'll be demanding to see how the judging panel worked that out.
Who do you want to win at the Golden Globes this year? Let us know in the comments section and make sure to look at our look at our look over the leading men here and come back for our choices in the show categories tomorrow.

VIDEO: Does the website "WorldStar Hip Hop" normalize Violence in the Black Community? HUFFPOSTLIVE
I don't quite understood the pathology of Black Men whom get so upset when we try to express our feelings on how the media and sometimes they, ignore the pain and ills of Black Women/girls. I mean this guy RhyhmeFest was extremely rude, reducing the sister to a stereotype of being an angry black woman..Rudiculous.

10 Things I Wish I Knew Before College
My parents, teachers and mentors always told me that college would change me.
"Josh, get the most out of it. It will be the best time in your life. You're going to miss it when you're done."
These statements never really resonated with me. My thoughts of college were filled with anxiety and fear. I was leaving the comfortable escape of my home town and close friends.
My idea of "getting the most out of college" was also flawed. I assumed it meant going to frat parties and getting good grades (both of which I inevitably did). However, I wasn't much of a partier. In fact, I was deeply introverted and shy. So what did I get out of it?
I originally posted this list to my Facebook as a simple goodbye to my college town. Below are the 10 things I learned about life my college classes didn't teach me:
1. Realize how your actions affect others.
This applies to fellow students and teachers alike. Teachers are people too. People often forget that. If you are sitting in the back of the class on your phone or computer, they notice. However, if you actively come to class all of the time, participate and go to office hours then that B+ at the end of the semester can easily turn into an A if they think you deserve it.
Use empathy and put yourself in other peoples' position before acting.
2. Do something compassionate every day.
This allows you to make friends and feel good about yourself at the same time. In every interaction I had with people at parties or in class, I would give compliments or just make people feel good about themselves. People naturally want to be around those that make each other feel good.
The trick with this one is to not expect anything in return. If you hold the door open for someone, don't expect a thank you. Just do it for yourself.
3. The only regret you'll ever have is NOT trying.
Society often tells us that failing means somehow that we are not good enough. Ironically, school is one of the biggest culprits with this. Students tell themselves that is they fail a test, then they will fail the class, then flunk out of school. This fear unfortunately manifests in other aspects of our life.
A more constructive paradigm to have in regards to failure is that it means growth. Failure is a learning opportunity. The plant that does not reach for the sunlight will never grow. So go say hi to that girl, join that club and take a risk.
4. Make goals and write them down.
You can't hit the target of you don't know where you are aiming. Towards the end of my senior year of undergraduate study I realized that I couldn't do much with a BS in Psychology. I also realized that I had next to no chance of getting my Masters. Referring to #3, I at least wanted to try.
I saw that my poor GPA was not everything when it came to my application. In courses where I did make A's, I asked professors for letters of recommendation. I then found out that I could take up to two classes in the graduate program. I aced those classes, studied and did well in the GRE and got into the program. See? Nothing is impossible.
5. The hardest part of balancing your life is being who you are vs. getting what you want.
Always lean toward the former. There have been times where I could get what I wanted from people, but I had to sacrifice my values as a person. The reward was never worth it in the end. Always be yourself. Your soul will thank you for it in the end.
6. People are people, no matter in what position.
We are all naturally selfish creatures, despite what role we are in. You may think someone will got to bat for you, but in the end their needs usually come first. Time and time again I had to learn this the hard way.
There is a cognitive bias called the Halo Effect. It occurs when positive feelings about one aspect of a person or object, influences our opinion about other ambiguous or neutral traits (i.e., "That man was so charming. I bet he's also very successful.").
Even if you think you see a "halo" around someone's head, never assume they will do something in your favor because it is the "right" thing to do. The right thing is purely subjective.
7. Keep an open mind.
Every mistake I have made came from two fundamental areas: being selfish and making assumptions.
Remain like the innocent child. Ask questions constantly. By keeping an open mind, you'll be able to absorb and learn things you never thought possible.
8. Everyone is equal.
It is you that gives and takes power to and from people.
As I mentioned earlier, I was quite the introvert when I first came to college. I would remember being at my first parties and being literally afraid to go up to talk to people. I thought they would somehow judge me or see how "uncool" I was.
When you care what other people think about you, you are giving your power away.
9. Hurting someone you love is more painful than being hurt yourself.
You will most likely find yourself dating one or two people in college. It is one of the hardest places to maintain a long-term relationship. This is because you will see potential opportunities every single day in class, the gym, and at parties.
When people get hurt, they put up walls to protect themselves from future pain. These walls serve to push other people away and create even more closure in others. The number one mistake I made in my 9 years of college was hurting someone I loved deeply. No amount of my own pain compares to the pain I experienced when I hurt them. Let your walls down.
10. Cherish down time.
You won't look back on your college days and say, "Damn! I wish I got more sleep!" Interpret that how you want!

SOUTH EL MONTE, Calif. (KABC) -- A burglary suspect was arrested after allegedly carjacking a vehicle and then crashing it.
The crime spree started with a burglary at a fast food restaurant in Artesia and ended with a collision in South El Monte.
Deputies responded to a burglary call around 1:40 .m. Thursday at a closed Wienerschnitzel restaurant near South Street and Jersey Avenue.
Lakewood sheriff's officials took the original call, but the CHP took over when the incident turned into a pursuit.
Investigators say the suspect's vehicle became disabled after he was involved in a solo-vehicle crash in the city of Commerce. He then demanded a vehicle from an unidentified woman, who complied out of fear. She was not injured.
The suspect took the woman's vehicle and the pursuit continued.
The chase ended when the suspect lost control of the vehicle near the intersection of Rosemead Boulevard and Rush Avenue in the South El Monte area.
The suspect, whose identity was not immediately released, was then taken into custody.

Are you ready for a little time off? Spring break is right around the corner! You have put in tons of time at the gym and during #FabAbFebruary to see results, so don't let a little bit of belly bloat dim your shine. It's natural and you should try not to feel self-conscious - it happens to everyone every now and then. It is commonly believed that excess water or fluids in your body cause belly bloat; however, it is actually a buildup of abdominal gas. Even swallowing too much air or carbonated drinks can contribute to excess gas. In the long run, adding more fiber to your diet will help reduce belly bloat, along with so many other benefits. Deciding what to eat before a major vacation can be a challenge, but it does not have to create a major strain on your regular diet. Let's play a game of "This or That" for simple recipe ideas to say bye to belly bloat:
Breakfast: Green Juice vs. Yogurt Parfait
Green juices that include anti-inflammatory fruits and vegetables will help reduce any toxins in your body. Major bloat-reducing ingredients you should incorporate include ginger, pineapple, and celery. Inspired Taste breaks down how to prepare a naturally sweet green juice. Parfaits are another great option for breakfast because the probiotics in yogurt aid in digestion. In need of a recipe for a yogurt parfait? Look no further, we have you covered with a super easy Chia Seed Parfait recipe shared in a previous article.
Lunch: Grilled Chicken Greek Salad vs. Honey Lime Salmon Tacos
As your first option, the Greek Avocado and Grilled Chicken Salad contains lean protein and fiber-rich greens that will reduce the chances of bloating. Next, is the Honey Lime Salmon Tacos which will only take 30 minutes to prepare, but will also leave you feeling satisfied. Avocado is a great source of potassium, which reduces bloating by counteracting the sodium levels in our bodies.
Belly bloat is temporary and can be controlled through diet and the help of these recipes. Have any other meal suggestions or tips to keep bloating at bay? Comment below and share!

The saga of "will he or won't he?" that has centered on Daniel Craig's possible return as James Bond may be finally coming to a close.
Sources tell Page Six that Bond producer Barbara Broccoli has "just about persuaded" Craig to come on board for one more movie.
What seems to have gotten Craig to warm up to the idea is the success of his recent Off-Broadway production of "Othello," which Broccoli produced.
"Daniel was very pleased with how 'Othello' went and the great reviews," a source told Page Six. "Now Daniel's talks with Barbara are going in the right direction. They have a script — screenwriting duo Neal Purvis and Robert Wade [who've penned several Bond movies] are writing and they will go into production as soon as Daniel is ready to commit."
The scratch-my-back-and-I'll-scratch-yours tactic is a favourite in Hollywood and this seems to be what might bring Craig back to play 007 for a fifth time, following the massive success of the two most recent entries in the franchise, "Skyfall" and "Spectre."
After "Spectre," Bond told a reporter that he would "rather break this glass and slash my wrists" than play Bond again.
Page Six also noted that Broccoli did entertain the idea of hiring "The Night Manager" star Tom Hiddleston as a new Bond, but according to a source, she didn't like him because "he's a bit too smug and not tough enough to play James Bond."
MGM declined to comment for this story.

All sorts of gloom and doom.
Everywhere you turn, whether it is print, television or radio the words, unprecedented, depression, unparalleled, are being used without any concern for context or accuracy. Almost 30 years ago Business Week magazine put out a cover piece entitled the Death of Equities. At that time the Dow was 875 and had been trading in an up and down manner since topping out in January of 1973.
The article synopsis was as follows: The masses long ago switched from stocks to investments having higher yields and more protection from inflation. Now the pension funds, the markets last hope, have won permission to quit stocks and bonds for real estate, futures, gold, and even diamonds. The death of equities looks like an almost permanent condition, reversible someday, but not soon.
One of my favorite books of all time, and one that I read to my kids on a regular basis is Dr. Seuss's, "Oh the Places You'll Go!"
You won't lag behind, because you'll have the speed. You'll pass the whole gang and you'll soon take the lead. Wherever you fly, you'll be the best of the best. Wherever you go, you will top all the rest. I read a passage from this book on my radio show recently…
Except when you don't. Because, sometimes you won't. I'm sorry to say so but, sadly it's true that Bang-ups and Hang-ups can happen to you. You can get all hung up in a prickle-ly perch. And your gang will fly on. You'll be left in a Lurch.
You'll come down from the Lurch with an unpleasant bump. And the chances are, then, that you'll be in a slump. And when you're in a Slump you're not in for much fun. Un-slumping yourself is not easily done.
You will come to a place where the streets are not marked. Some windows are lighted. But mostly they're darked. A place you could sprain both your elbow and chin! Do you dare to stay out? Do you dare to go in? How much can you lose? How much can you win? And IF you go in, should you turn left or right…or right-and-three-quarters? Or maybe, not quite? Or go around back and sneak in from behind? Simple it's not, I'm afraid you will find, for a mind-maker-upper to make up his mind.
You can get so confused that you'll start in to race down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace and grind on for miles across weirdish wild space, headed, I fear, toward a most useless place.
…for people just waiting. Waiting for a train to go or a bus to come, or a plane to go or the mail to come, or the rain to go or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow or waiting around for a YES or NO or waiting for their hair to grow. Everyone is just waiting.
Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite or waiting around for Friday night or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil, or a Better Break or a string of pearls, or a pair of pants or a wig with curls, or Another Chance. Everyone is just waiting.
I would like to add…waiting for a recession to end or for their home value to go up, or a better job or a fairer tax code. A higher stock market or different leadership…
I would like to hope that our clients, listeners and readers would not fall trap to the waiting place. Recessions are where real wealth will be created. The Business Week article signaling the end of equities ushered in the greatest bull market in history. Recessions are great opportunities to grab market share and increase and better one's business. John F. Kennedy delivered a speech in Indianapolis on April 15, 1959 where he stated, "When written in Chinese the word crisis is compounded of two characters. One represents danger, the other represents opportunity."
There is some debate as to whether that statement is completely accurate, with some Chinese scholars debating the actual origins of the symbols, either way it certainly makes a great deal of sense. Recessions, crisis situations, are opportunities, but only for those who choose not to participate, and those who don't sit in the Waiting Place.

In Swimming Lessons, marine life artist Wyland's emotive photography beautifully captures the lives and interactions of mother sea lions and their pups. Paired with a touching narrative by Wyland Foundation's own, Steve Creech, this tribute pays a warm homage to the mother-child bond we all share.
