The City of Mandurah is continuing its push to develop stronger relationships with local businesses.
This follows a move by the City in August to increase the local preference for the procurement of goods and services, giving local operators an edge over non-local businesses.
The program increases the local pricing preference for procurements over $75,000 to 10 percent, except construction at five percent. This will enable local businesses to be more competitive in regional procurement processes.
The City is currently asking for registrations of interest to supply goods and services to the City's events, including Crab Fest, Christmas Pageant, New Year's Eve and Australia Day.
The City spends over a million dollars on purchasing goods and services for events every 3 years.
City of Mandurah Mayor Rhys Williams said events are extremely important to Mandurah as they bring economic benefits to our local businesses and tourism industry and strengthen the fabric of our community.
"We're committed to buying local and I encourage all local businesses to register.
"We'd like to hear from local businesses who are either equipped to supply, or would like additional funding and support to help them develop into becoming a supplier," Mr Williams said.
Events require many goods and services including: audio visual, security, generators and electrical, toilets and water tanks, musical stages, marquees, chairs, tables, furniture, plumbing and gas facilities and catering equipment.
The City is working in partnership with Tahlia Jones, Local Content Advisor from the Peel Development Commission to maximise participation of local businesses in government supply and works contracts.
Registrations of interest close at 5pm, 3 December 2018 via www.mandurah.wa.gov.au/buylocal or for more information on the program visit www.peel.wa.gov.au/im-looking-for/local-content-advisor/local-content-adviser.

Aaron Ramsey struck the best goal of his career to lift the gloom surrounding Arsene Wenger.
Ramsey hit a 35-yard wonder goal as the Welsh midfielder and Lukas Podolski both scored twice to thrash Galatasaray.
And the Gunners midfielder said: "The ball came to me on the edge of the box and I had a go and thankfully it went in. It's up there with my best strikes.
"We came here with a few players making their first appearance tonight and it was nice to nearly come away with what we needed to finish top.
"We came here wanting to win and we managed that, we're happy we won the game. We finished on a high in the group and now we're looking forward to seeing who we'll face in the next round. We scored a few goals and took full advantage of the opportunities."
Ramsey came off at half time but insists he will be fit to face Newcastle on Saturday.
"I felt a bit of a tight hamstring at half time, so I came off as a precaution with the game against Newcastle at the weekend," he said.
Gunners boss Wenger, who has been under pressure after the Gunners ' defeat to Stoke on Saturday, admitted he thought Ramsey wouldn't score from so far out but was delighted with his team's response.
Wenger added: "I felt at the time Ramsey was not taking the right decision, but he proved me wrong.
"We can focus now on the Premier League. It was my 180th game in the Champions League tonight, we've won away from home and we're now 15 consecutive years in the last 16. I believe that is an achievement.
"Let's focus on the Premier League until the end of February, and the FA Cup as well. Hull will not be an easy game. In February, we will see where we stand."
Wenger even admitted at half time - when Arsenal led 3-0 - he was dreaming of scoring six which would have been enough to top the Group after Borussia Dortmund were held by Anderlecht.
Wenger added: "I was not thinking that at the start of the game, but at half-time yes. But after we were had to take Ramsey and Flamini off, it was too much for us to hope we could score six."

- Product Features
Sold by the 2 meter reel and foot.
RGBDW 4-in-1 PixelControl LED Strip Light expands your pixel color mixing possibilities by having both 6,500K warm white and RGB on the same node. Combining RGB with 6,500K white allows for richer tones that were previously impossible to achieve with Pixel LED strip light. The strip features our smallest cutting increment since it is cuttable every LED. This lets lighting designers mix RGB with 6,500K on a pixel-by-pixel basis, allowing for smooth gradients and eye-catching fades. With one RGBDW 4-in-1 LED per pixel, each two-meter reel has 120 individually accessible pixels. It features 60 high-quality RGBW LEDs per meter and a width of 10mm.
RGBDW 4-in-1 PixelControl LED Strip Light is compatible with our selection of LED Pixel Controllers, giving you control over your LED lighting without needing to use DMX decoders. These controllers provide a wide array of color changing and chasing effects along with controller over speed, brightness and direction. Easily integrate RGBDW 4-in-1 PixelControl into a DMX setup when used with the DMX512 V2 PixelControl Decoder. The DMX512-PX-V2 translates standard DMX output to the required data signal input required by the RGBDW 4-in-1 PixelControl LED Strip Light.
Each reel of RGBDW 4-in-1 PixelControl LED Strip Light is equipped with a female SM connector on the input and a male SM connector with power injector on the output on the output. When linking together multiple reels, apply power every 2 m. RGBDW 4-in-1 PixelControl is one-directional and the input direction is always indicated by an arrow on the strip light.
- Features List:
- Waterproof
- Each pixel is addressable in the following order: Green-Red-Blue-White

- 25.5 watts per reel | 12.8 watts per meter
- Cuttable every 0.65 in | 16.7 mm
- Uses WS2814 IC
Inject power about every 120 LEDs. This significantly reduces any voltage drop problems. Use the power injector plugs or clips to apply power between each reel for best results.

Suitable for small to medium aquariums with plants such as Echinodorus, (e.g. E. horemanii) with intense lighting to aid plant and algae growth.
Best substrates are sand or fine gravel – pH: 7-7.2 – DH: 10 – Temperature: 22 – 26°C
During spawning the eggs are laid on the Echinodorus leaves and on the aquarium glass, the fry hatch within 36 – 40 hours, and attach themselves by the mouth to the plant leaves or aquarium glass.
One strange thing is that fry that are not provided with Echinodorus plants are found to be 20 – 25% slower growing, so it is thought that an essential element in their diet is a component of that plant species or algae that is present only with that plant.
Fairly fast growing fry – 30 days, 1.5 – 1.8 cm. 60 days, 3.5 – 4 cm.May 8, 2009 at 1:36 pm #313687

Harlequin Hotels and Resorts
If you were encouraged to invest pension money or savings into Harlequin, we'd like to hear from you as soon as possible. Here at Beat the Banks, we've been involved in compensation cases against a number of failed investment schemes, and we're ready and waiting to see what we can do for you. All it takes to start the process is a call to our specialist team on 0800 193 1234.
Harlequin is one of the earliest and certainly one of the most notorious of such schemes. Potential investors were given the hard sell by slick sales professionals who earned a small fortune thanks to their persuasive powers and their glossy marketing materials. It's thought commissions were worth up to £35,000 for individual investments that totalled £200,000.
Looking back now, it's easy to see why unregulated advisors were so keen to sell, and why investors were coerced into signing up. Here was a chance to add value to savings and pension pots and to make those retirement years more secure, more comfortable and more content. There was also an opportunity to leave something behind for loved ones as well.
Sadly, this isn't what happened at all. It's thought at least 6,000 people invested in the scheme, and that the total forked out exceeded £400 million. The premise was that the money would be invested in luxury holiday resorts in the Caribbean, one of which was the now infamous Buccament Bay in St Vincent. Many of the villas that were proposed were never built, and the investments that were made are now useless.
Resorts were planned in St Vincent and Grenadines, St Lucia, Barbados and the Cayman Islands, but the lavish projects failed to materialise. Currently, the owner of Harlequin and the company itself are the subject of investigations by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), and cases are regularly being referred to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).

You've probably heard the comments.
I have.
There are many people who have heard the reports of Toyota cars racing out of control and they aren't blaming Toyota
They are blaming the drivers.
Walt from Detroit wrote me, "It's time America takes drivers education and learn the basics of driving. Problem solved."
Bob is even more blunt about his view of the runaway Prius in California saying, "I think this is the biggest bunch of BS I've heard in a long time. Surely the guy driving that car didn't have any part of a brain. Why couldn't he simply shift into neutral and then stop safely? Doesn't make any since to me."
Paul agrees. He wrote, "Any idiot who went 30 miles like that should have his license to drive revoked."
Finally, John says, "...Would like to hear an explanation of why the motorist didn't simply turn the key off?? and let the car drift to a stop."
You get the idea.
Many people just aren't buying the idea Toyota's are suddenly speeding up.
But not everyone has become skeptical.
I also hear from people who think there's some type of a problem with Toyota vehicles. What it is, they're not sure. But they've seen some of the accidents, like the California Highway Patrolman who could not stop his Lexus last fall and wound up crashing the car and dying along with three other passengers. They also point to the accident outside Dallas in December when a Toyota Avalon broke through a fence, flipped over, and landed in a lake. Four people died.
This is why it's critical for investigators from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to reach some type of conclusion after studying the runaway Prius in California, or the Prius that surged and crashed into a brick wall outside New York City.
If NHTSA reached a conclusion, people will finally start to buy into the idea we truly know what's wrong with these Toyota's. For better or worse, many people are skeptical of Toyota's investigations, while others are skeptical of the outside firms that are accusing Toyota of having faulty electronics.
Send in your comments and let me know what you think of this latest rash of unintended acceleration cases being reported.

A week ago at Northeastern State University in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, I shared a presentation with faculty titled, "Technology Trends in Higher Education." During the session, I used a PollEveryWhere survey to ask attendees:
How do you feel about students bringing laptops to class?
These are the results from our faculty survey on April 9th.
While many faculty were positive, there were several session attendees who did NOT have positive perceptions of student laptops in the classroom.
I showed the following video, which I posted here on March 10th with the title, "A professor who takes laptop banning too far" after surveying faculty about their laptop perceptions.
Certainly this video portrays the far end of the spectrum when it comes to faculty perceptions about student laptops, and is likely not representative of a majority of professors. The issue of CONTROL is contentious in the classroom, however, both in higher education as well as K-12 classrooms. I think this video can provide a good context to discuss many of the issues which come up when everyone in the room has access to a mobile, wireless learning device.
Hat tip to Berlin Fang of Oklahoma Christian University for sharing this video during his presentation at the Heartland eLearning Conference at the University of Central Oklahoma in March.

text: (Mayville) A Mayville man is facing felony charges of Armed Robbery with the Threat of Force. Paul Lehmann allegedly entered the Shell Gas Station on North Main Street around 6:30pm on Tuesday and allegedly told the clerk that he had a gun. The clerk told police that he thought the suspect was lying and sounded scared so he told him to pull the gun out if he actually had one. After the clerk made the statement, the suspect walked about the front door and fled on a motorcycle. Authorities spotted the motorcycle parked on the street a few blocks away. In talking with Lehmann, the deputy noted that he had track marks on his arms indicative of heroin use and asked if he attempted to rob the gas station. The 38-year-old Lehmann allegedly admitted his involvement and conceded that he does not own a gun. A signature bond was set at $1000 on Thursday and a judge will decide next month if there is enough evidence to order a trial.

WELLESLEY, Mass. – On September 16, the Davis Museum at Wellesley College will present Bunny Harvey: Four Decades, an exhibition of the work of Bunny Harvey, artist and Elizabeth Christy Kopf Professor of Art at Wellesley from 1976-2015. In addition to her well known landscape paintings, Bunny Harvey: Four Decades will feature works from Harvey's forty years at the College, during which she has engaged with an array of diverse themes: archaeology and the ancient world; scientific observation and discovery; and the visual response to non-visual sensation in time and space.
Throughout her prolific career, she has explored the concept of sustained, subjective observation and its relationship to accumulated knowledge and memory. Brought together at the Davis for the first time, Harvey's large body of work— approximately 70 works including drawings and both small and large scale paintings—will illuminate her abiding engagement with these themes, and will highlight her important contribution to Wellesley as a teacher, mentor, and participant of the academic community.
On view through December 13, Bunny Harvey is free and open to the general public.
"Over the past forty years, my work has continuously evolved," said Bunny Harvey, artist and Professor of Art. "This exhibition will showcase that evolution—from interpretations of direct observations of the landscape in Vermont, to the quiet, mysterious spaces inside an ancient Egyptian tomb, to the tracks that the smallest subatomic particle leaves in a bubble chamber. I am excited to see such a large body of my work presented in one place."
"During her forty-year career at Wellesley College Bunny has influenced many students and future artists," said exhibition curator Meredith Fluke, Kemper Curator of Academic Programs. "We are honored to have the opportunity to applaud her service to the College in a show that is not only about her larger works, but that explores her works on paper, her artistic process, and that highlights her legacy as a mentor to hundreds of women."
Bunny Harvey's schedule of exhibitions will be updated regularly at bunnyharvey.com. The exhibition and related programs are supported entirely through the generosity of Wellesley College Friends of Art, now celebrating 50 years of giving. The exhibition catalogue is published with the generous support of the Office of the Provost and Dean of the College.

The suit that the Duchess of Sussex's father, Thomas Markle, had planned to wear for the royal wedding has been snapped up for "half-price" and worn to Royal Ascot.
Public relations consultant Johnno Spence bought the "semi-bespoke" suit from men's outfitters Oliver Brown.
Mr Markle had been expected to walk his daughter down the aisle but missed last month's wedding because of ill health.
He later said he watched the event on television.
- Harry and Meghan make Ascot debut
- Meghan's dad reveals tears over wedding
- Beckhams donate royal wedding outfits
He bought the suit for £2,000 – around half of its full price – from Chelsea-based Oliver Brown, an official licensee of Royal Ascot which specialises in silk top hats worn inside the Royal Enclosure.
The duchess had commissioned the owner of the menswear company, Kristian Robson, to make several outfits for her father ahead of his planned visit to Britain it has been reported. She requested shirts, a weekend suit, a waistcoat and a set of tails.
According to a source quoted in the Mail on Sunday, the tailor said that with a few adjustments, the outfits would "fit Johnno like a glove – and they did".
Mr Spence, who founded PR firm JSC Communications, is understood to have attended Royal Ascot on Tuesday – the same day the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were also there.
Earlier this month Mr Markle, 73, appeared on Good Morning Britain and said daughter Meghan cried when he told her he would not be attending the wedding.
He said he was recovering well from his heart surgery.
In the run-up to the wedding Mr Markle – a former cinematographer – became embroiled in a controversy over reports he had staged paparazzi photos of himself in wedding-related activities, such as being measured for a new suit.
Speaking to GMB, he explained that it was meant to be "a way of improving my look", adding: "Obviously that all went to hell." He said he apologised to both Harry and Meghan.

In 2001, Apple held a keynote to launch their new product, with the tagline of the event invitation "Hint: It's not Mac." Rumors were that Apple would release a revolutionary PDA, while it turns out to be a music player. That actually disappointed many in the tech industry. However, many were wrong and Steve was right.
The launch of the tiny music player changed the world of consumer electronics and reshaped Apple. It can be argued that it's the most important product Apple ever introduced. Before the iPod, Apple was a niche computer maker with 3% market share and cool looking iMacs and iBooks. The iPod eventually changed how we all consume music.
In 2007, the iPhone. Just before Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone, he said, "Today Apple is reinventing the phone." He was only half right. The iPhone did more than that. It redefined the entire mobile phone industry and the behavior of all mobile phone users. It created a truly personal computer, one that we can bring with us all the time in the pocket.
None of us realize that we need a tablet (we didn't even know what to call it back then ) when we have a powerful laptop and a brilliant smartphone. Walter Mossberg, the principal technology columnist for The Wall Street Journal from 1991 through 2013, currently Executive Editor of The Verge and Editor-at-Large of Recode, wrote, "It's about the software, stupid", meaning hardware features and build are less important to the iPad's success than software and user interface, his first impressions of which were largely positive.
Wait a minute… Have you noticed it yet?
Yes, Steve was wearing the exact same outfit in every single event, for the iPod keynote in 2001, the iPhone keynote in 2007, the iPad keynote in 2010, and almost every single keynote event he was in, to the point that the black turtleneck, blue jeans, and sneaker become the essential brand elements when people think and talk about Steve Jobs.
The Chocolate-Radish Experiment
Back in 1996, psychologist Roy Baumeister conducted an experiment together with his former Case Western Reserve University colleagues Ellen Bratslavsky, Mark Muraven, and Dianne Tice, examined the effect of a tempting food challenge designed to deplete participants' willpower.
They kept the 67 study participants in a room that smelled of freshly baked chocolate cookies and then teased them further by showing them the actual treats alongside other chocolate-flavored confections. Part of the participants did get to indulge their sweet tooth, while the other part of the participants, whose resolves were being tested, were asked to eat radishes instead.
As the scientists noted in their Journal of Personality and Social Psychology paper (PDF), many of the radish-eaters "exhibit[ed] clear interest in the chocolates, to the point of looking longingly at the chocolate display and in a few cases even picking up the cookies to sniff at them."
After the food bait, while the participants thought the experiment was over, Baumeister and his team then gave them a second, seemingly unrelated puzzle to solve. And this was not an average puzzle, it was almost impossible to solve, purposely designed to test the persistence of the participants.
Baumeister found that those who ate radishes made far fewer attempts and devoted less than half the time solving the puzzle before they gave up, compared to the chocolate-eating participants and a control group that only joined this latter phase of the study.
In other words, those who had to resist the sweets and force themselves to eat radishes could no longer find the will to fully engage in another challenging task. They were already too tired, their willpower had depleted. And this directly affects their self-control, discipline, and yes, decision making.
The research illustrates the relationship between our energy and our decision making. Most of the time, bad decisions are made, not because we lack certain information and intelligence to make a good judgment, it's simply that we don't have the energy and willpower required to process the problem we're facing at that moment. This research also gave us a clearer picture of how our energy and willpower affect our self-control and discipline.
To perform at our peak, a clear and sharp mind is required. Yes, there are numerous ways and techniques to strengthen our willpower and maximize our energy by training them regularly. However, the best way to optimize your decision-making is by avoiding decision fatigue.
The trend of minimalism is growing in many spaces like digital design, architecture, and day-to-day lifestyle. The core purpose is somewhat similar to what we like to achieve here — gain better clarity, improve focus, and keep only the things that matter.
Which is why I called this Decision Minimalism.
How to Implement Decision Minimalism
The implementation of this concept breaks into three phrases: track, measure, and automate.
If you want to change what you eat, don't start by shopping for chicken breast. Instead, start with paying attention to what you're currently eating. The first step to change a behavior is not by changing what you do and how you do things immediately, but by observing and tracking the current behavior.
To practice decision minimalism, don't hop right into dumping all your clothes, start by tracking your current decision. Observe the patterns — when and how good decisions are made; when and how you made poor judgments; when and why you became indecisive. This provides a better layer of clarity on what you should change.
Efficiency is about how quickly you make a decision or get the work done with very little input, the other side of it is effectiveness — how big the impact of your decision or action. After you get a clear picture of your decision-making pattern, measure the effectiveness of every decision you made.
What do I mean by this? Find out what decisions you made, deliver the greatest impact on your life, your visions, and your goals. At the same time, identify the decisions that make little to no impact toward your current priorities.
According to the Pareto Principle, 20 percent of your decisions generate 80 percent of the results — good or bad. Find out both the 20 percent that generates good outcomes and the bad outcomes, and channel your energy to do more of the former and avoid the later.
The third step is to put part of your decision-making on autopilot. There are always important decisions and obligations you need to make consistently on a regular basis.
For example, what to eat, it's an important question because it directly affects how we feel and how we perform. The thing is, it might not be aligned with your current focus if your number one goal now is to build your business.
This is the time you automate this repeated decisions. In fact, Ramit Sethi solves this by hiring a nutritionist to plan what he should be eating, and a personal chef to prepare him the meals. In his words, these are important decisions related to health but he prefers to put his main energy and focus on his businesses.
The Practicality of Decision Minimalism in Daily Life
You might be thinking: "Are you kidding me? Not everyone can afford a nutritionist and a personal chef, Dean."
Yes, I get it. Hiring a personal chef may not be for everyone. However, the purpose here is to demonstrate a real-life example of decision minimalism.
I'm a big believer in starting small, you don't need to hire a chef to start practicing the concept of decision minimalism. There are a few ways to achieve the same results without spending you a dime (some of them even save you big bucks).
- Trim the wardrobe. Unless you're a celebrity or someone in the fashion industry, what you wear is not crucially important. It's not a life-or-death kind of decision to make. Pick a few styles of outfit you like and stick to that so you don't need to think about what to wear every single day. Besides, you also reduce the need to shop for clothes regularly (save yourself another decision to make).
- Design a morning routine. We are full of energy, high in willpower, and sharp in decision-making in the morning after a good night sleep. Designing a morning routine to schedule the most important tasks during this period. Think about the one thing if you complete it, you will consider yourself productive even if you get nothing done for the rest of the day. Another great morning routine will be cultivating a creative habit, if you're an artist, paint in the morning; if you're a writer, write in the morning.
- Eat fewer, same meals. If you're like me, you don't yet have a personal nutritionist and chef, this is something you can try out. Do some upfront research on what to eat, design a few recipes for each meal, eat the same thing for a week, then switch. Besides eating the same meals, I also skip breakfast because I'm practicing intermittent fasting.
- Unsubscribe from information addiction. Before the Internet was invented, information was scarce. If you have a piece of information that others don't, you're going to make a fortune out of that. Today, information is everywhere, battling against each other to grab your attention. Go on a low information diet, in most cases, you don't need to know more, you just need to act upon what you have already known.
- Jot down key objectives before bed. This helps you gain a better clarity for the next day. It doesn't necessarily your to-do list for the next day. Write down what you want to achieve, get done, and improve for the next day, they will eventually become the framework for all the decisions you need to make for that day.
- Simplify. Set ONE goal, so you have less thing to focus on. Limit your to-do list, so you know you are going to complete them. Buy less stuff, so you have less decision to make and fewer things to worry about.
Who Else Wore the Same Outfit?
Now, let us get back to what Steve Jobs did for a moment. I'm not sure if you notice anyone else besides Steve Jobs, wore the same outfit most of the time?
In 2014, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg had his first-ever Q&A publicly. He answered many questions in that session but one of the most interesting questions is this:
"Why are you wearing the same t-shirt every day?"
In case you haven't noticed that yet, Mark Zuckerberg wears the same gray t-shirt at most public events. While everyone is expected a playful answer, Mark said this,
"I really want to clear my life to make it so that I have to make as few decisions as possible about anything except how to best serve this community."
He doesn't actually wear the same t-shirt, he said, once, he has 20 identical gray t-shirts at home. But for him, what he is wearing is really not that important. Yes, of course, he needs to wear something, but he really doesn't want to think about it because it doesn't fall under the 20 percent of the decision he should be making. Instead, he decided to focus all of his energy on how best serve the Facebook community and simply wear (automate) the same gray t-shirt.
In fact, here is Mark Zuckerberg running in Beijing.
Often, Less is More
Many creatives and entrepreneurs who are working in a highly competitive space want to maximize their performance in both work and life. And there is no shortage of tricks and gimmicks that claim to do that.
Here are Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg, who impacted the world with their creativity and innovation (and make billions at the same time), opts for this simple strategy to improve their decision-making with almost no extra effort and investment required.
Before you consider other "proven" productivity tips and "approved" performance-enhancing drug, implement decision minimalism to reduce choices and decisions you need to make in order to reduce decision fatigue and improve your judgment. Even if making fewer decisions doesn't save you tons of time, it will still help you perform better by making you happier.

Rick Morse is a School of Government faculty member.
The fiscal climate for local governments (rural communities in particular) is daunting. Local governments are in a state of fiscal crisis and the long term forecast is not encouraging. Many use the term the "new normal" to express the sentiment that the "good 'ol days" where state and local governments could adequately finance all their needs are never coming back. Hard choices have been made and are being made that have significant long-term consequences.
Problems can alternatively be viewed as opportunities, however, and the "new normal" does indeed present an opportunity–an opportunity to approach problems differently, to think outside the box, and innovate in ways that perhaps were not realistic politically (or otherwise) in the past. One of the primary ways local governments are innovating is in creating partnerships with the private and not-for-profit sectors as well as with other governments. These creative collaborations leverage the assets of various partners to create public value where it could not have been created by any one of the partners acting alone.
A great example of this kind of partnership in a rural community was the development of a wastewater treatment facility in Whittier, North Carolina. Jackson County, the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, the Tuckaseigee Water and Sewer Authority, and The Church of God (Whittier), along with the NC Rural Center and other funders, partnered to make a wastewater facility in Whittier possible. The project addressed a significant need and also opened up economic development opportunities. The complex collaboration was facilitated through the collaborative leadership of Bill Gibson and the Southwestern Commission (regional council of governments) that he directs.
I have shared this story elsewhere in print, and have recently completed a project that allows the story of how this partnership came together and some of the lessons learned to be shared by the stakeholders themselves in a new video on the School of Government's YouTube site. This video, produced by the Local Elected Leaders Academy and funded by the generous support of Food Lion, offers many insights into the value of innovative partnerships like this and the challenges they face. This project faced many obstacles and setbacks and continues to face some challenges in implementation. But the desire of the stakeholders to work together to make it happen, along with the deft facilitative leadership of the Southwestern Commission, helped see this through, despite the challenges. I hope you'll take a minute to watch the video and let me know what you think.

Possums As Pets
Pet Sematary is about a mystical burial ground that children use to bring their dead pets back to life. By way of generations the legend of the Micmac burial grounds has been passed down. The young children in a tiny Maine town have a tendency to the cemetery that is near the Micmac burial grounds. When Louis Creed and his family move to Ludlow, Maine they are introduced to the Pet Sematary, and are warned against going to the burial ground that lies just beyond. When his daughter's cat dies while she is away, Louis Creed buries him on the hallowed Micmac burial grounds. When tragedy befalls his family members, Louis Creed acts in desperation to place his household back with each other.

Till a handful of weeks from now I never have significantly to buy toys, so for my cage, (I'm receiving my 1st two rats ever tomorrow, and they are five weeks old), I bought a tiny basket for a dollar. My cage is a wire cage. I took some thin black cord and tied it to each end of the basket. I strung it via the bars so that it appears like a little loft bed. it is hung on the side of the cage so it won't swing also significantly and i filled it with bits of paper and and bedding. I also have a clay pot and an empty coffee container that i took the label off of as hideouts. The chew toy I bought though since I could not discover a great piece of wood to put in.
Your privacy will usually be extremely respected. Regions inside your property that do not contain pet or cleaning supplies are none of my concern and will constantly be treated accordingly. Here are links to more details, speculation, and fiercely-held opinion about hunting cats. Support insure that all pets have the opportunity to uncover a excellent house by having your pet spayed or neutered.

"The Lure of Falconry" and "Christmas in Colonial America" in Reliving History (Winter 2018)
Reliving History Magazine Subscriptions
Check out the Winter 2018 Issue of Reliving History magazine featuring my articles on falconry and Christmas in colonial America. Click here to subscribe!
The historical record suggests that not only did falconry affect the development of language, but it also may have been a primary motivation for the English interest in exploring the Americas. By all accounts, falconry had largely fallen out of favor everywhere in the Atlantic World by the late 18th century and was not revived until the 20th century. The plethora of falconer associations across the globe, however, testify to the enduring fascination with the spectacle of the falcon hunt. The scene has captivated the human imagination for longer than people have recorded history and continues to this day.
Our lives are very different in most ways than those of our ancestors. We are often surprised by what we find on our journeys of exploration into the past. Yet we also realize that our lives would be even more shocking to them. Of all of those things that would shock our Pilgrim andPuritan forebearers, few would do so more than our contemporary celebration of the Christmas holidays.

What service do you provide?
I specialise in writing, recording, producing and scoring music for film, TV, professional media and other creative visual production. For examples of my previous work, please visit the Music and Film showreel sections of this website.
Additionally, I work as a session guitarist and can record parts remotely from my home based studio for other composers. I own a range of guitars, from electric to acoustic (steel and nylon strings), as well as banjo and ukulele, which enables me to capture a wide range of sounds, tones and textures.
Could you write a custom piece of music for my production/project and how much do you charge?
This my favourite type of collaboration, but due to the variations each project can bring, it's important I receive as much information beforehand so I can work out a quote and a timeframe e.g:
I love stories, tell me the one you passionately want to bring to life!
What budget are you working with and how much as a % can you realistically allocate to the music?
Do you have a style of music in mind/what is your inspiration?
What is the deadline for completing the music?
How much music do you need (minutes)?
Would you need an exclusive license e.g. restrict the music from being used or re-licensed for another project?
Can I use one of your existing tracks in my project?
All of the music on my website is available for use (unless specified), but you will need to purchase a licensing fee. This fee is dependent on the type of production it's for and the duration for which it'll be used, this can be anything from a TV/Broadcast commercial, YouTube video, home/personal project, telephone hold music etc. For these reasons, please contact me directly for a custom quote.

Word on the street is that Piranha Bytes may once again end up working on the Gothic series when it's finished developing Risen 2.
German developer Piranha Bytes is best known as the creator of the Gothic RPG series, in large part because it was the only thing the studio ever did prior to its 2007 split with publisher JoWood. Piranha Bytes went on to develop Risen, a 2009 release that fared reasonably well on the PC but scored poorly on the Xbox 360, while the Gothic franchise was handed to a new studio, Spellbound Entertainment, resulting in Arcania: Gothic 4. That was a bit more of a train wreck, amassing a Metacritic score of just 63.
Fans will probably be happy to hear, then, that Piranha Bytes could possibly get the franchise back - maybe. In an interview with Czech fan site Gothicz.net, co-founder and project director Michael Hoge said the agreement that saw JoWood get the rights to the IP isn't actually permanent. "We get the rights to Gothic back when we have finished Risen 2," he said. "Why? Because we did only sell them to our ex-publisher for a certain amount of time ;)"
But in a countervailing opinion posted on the WorldofPlayers.de forum [Google translated], Piranha Bytes Managing Director Michael Rüve wrote that Hoge "isn't a lawyer" and that his comments should be taken with a grain of salt. "For me there is no need to comment on our contractual position with JoWood. The fact that we are not currently working on Gothic [is] well known," he wrote. "JoWood currently has other worries. Speculation about the future [of] Risen 2 are just that - speculation."
Whatever happens, if anything, it won't be for awhile: Piranha Bytes currently has its hands full with Risen 2, which is slated to come out later this year, while a stand-alone expansion to Arcania: Gothic 4 called Fall of Setarrif is in the works at Spellbound.

Back in November we first got the confirmation that Anna Cathcart would be starring in her very own series, Zoe Valentine. Well, we finally got our first taste of the actor in Zoe's shoes, and we can roundly proclaim Kitty Covey would indeed be proud (and potentially even be Zoe's BFF).
The trailer for Brat's brand new web series dropped on Jan. 2, and it introduces us to Zoe's world. When the series was first announced, the main premise revolved around "a high school freshman whose older sister dies from cancer." But the new two-minute clip revealed quite a bit more.
Much like last year's To All The Boys I've Loved Before, Zoe Valentine will also deal with loss, grief and sisterhood, though from a vastly different scope. Enamored with magic since childhood, we get a brief glimpse at Zoe's life before and after the death of her sister, Cleo Valentine, at 16, which she dubs "the greatest disappearing act of them all."
With magic as its main metaphorical conductor, we see Zoe navigating the loss of her sister and dealing with high school drama at the same time. We're also introduced to her best friend and fellow magic enthusiast Brody, Cleo's heartthrob "widower" ex-boyfriend Isaac Jones, an arguably mean girl frenemy, and a potential love interest.
The series will premiere January 16, and we are definitely getting some Kitty vibes from Anna's portrayal of Zoe. The Teen Vogue 21 Under 21 2018 alum will further explore family, personal and social dynamics in this new project. We can't wait to watch.
Apart from Zoe, we'll also soon see Anna as Dizzy Tremaine in the forthcoming Descendants 3 and in the long-awaited (and, at last, recently-confirmed) TATB sequel.
Watch the full trailer for Zoe Valentine below.

(5 of 5)
Bigelow and Boal also carry the burden of being first: theirs is the first movie about 9/11 that arcs to the assassination of bin Laden. (In the first weekend of the film's wide release, its five top-grossing theaters were in Virginia near CIA headquarters, D.C. and New York City, the areas affected most directly by 9/11.) It was written and shot with blistering speed after the raid and completed as recently as November. There will be many more films about this period; Zero Dark Thirty never could have compressed all the events of 10 years into 2½ hours, but even the movie's skeptics would acknowledge that it has thrown down a gauntlet for artists and filmmakers who want to complement or rebuke its version of this chapter of American history.
"It's an important filmmaker who trusts the audience to participate," Chastain says. Zero Dark Thirty's audiences have participated, to say the least, and they have raised vital questions about what the film gets right and wrong and why it matters. But part of the negative response can be seen as the product of Hollywood-movie conditioning, the expectation that we should identify with a heroic protagonist, share her motivations, enjoy her successes and, above all, feel a sense of triumph as we walk out of the theater. The impulse is especially strong in the context of bin Laden's assassination: a purely black-and-white conclusion, with identifiable and unconflicted heroes assigned to the task, is irresistible.
Bigelow's movies don't work that way, and they never have. Jeremy Renner's bomb-disposal savant in The Hurt Locker routinely and willfully endangers himself and his fellow soldiers and seems permanently alienated from his wife and toddler son. In Near Dark "the good guys are the bad guys," as Bigelow puts it; that is, they are vampires. The terrorized rookie that Curtis portrays in Blue Steel is both hero and victim and seems irreparably damaged by movie's end. Ralph Fiennes' protagonist in Strange Days is a sleazy, pathetic salesman of black-market virtual-reality gear; we recoil from him more than we root for him. In K-19 a Soviet naval crew succumbs to radiation sickness largely because of the hubris of their commanding officer, played by Harrison Ford.
"I wanted to dispense with all the movie tropes the clean through line, the idea of the hero," Bigelow says of K-19. "It was interesting trying to get that one financed, because you'd be pitching it, saying, 'This really happened. They averted a thermonuclear event off the coast of a NATO base.' I remember sitting in some executive's office, and they said, 'O.K., but who are the good guys?' 'What do you mean? The Russians are the good guys.' 'No, I mean, who are the Americans?'"
One might pose a similar question of Zero Dark Thirty, which portrays its intelligence-gathering Americans as variously savage, dedicated, flighty, monomaniacal, generous, blinkered, amoral and hollowed out. Who are these Americans? And how was American history and identity shaped or warped by the methods employed in our decade of vengeance? The film's heroine, fittingly, is a mystery unto herself, with no backstory; there are many questions that the audience can't ask her, such as "What do you do outside of work?" and "Are you dating anybody?" and "No, really, do you do anything but work?" These are questions, by the way, that Bigelow isn't terribly keen on answering either.
She won't give details on her currently percolating project beyond saying it will be a third collaboration with Boal, but she hints strongly that her future is the present. "If you pick challenging, contemporaneous subjects that create controversy and noise around them, it puts you with Apocalypse Now, All the President's Men, A Clockwork Orange, In the Heat of the Night, Battle of Algiers. That's some very good company." Bigelow wants to keep that company. There will be no palate cleanser no romantic comedy or Point Break reboot. "Once you've opened the window on topical material, it's very hard to close it," she says. "Holding up a contemporary mirror is more attractive to me now than ever."

Any software product should have a version number. This article will answer the following questions about how Encodo works with them.
In decreasing order of expected expertise,
The intended audience of this document is developers.
quino command-line tool is installed on all machines. This tool can read and write version numbers for any .NET solution, regardless of which of the many version-numbering methods a given solution actually uses.
Encodo uses semantic versions. This scheme has a strict ordering that allows you to determine which version is "newer". It indicates pre-releases (e.g. alphas, betas, rcs) with a "minus", as shown below.
Version numbers come in two flavors:
See Microsoft's NuGet Package Version Reference for more information.
0.9.0-alpha34: A pre-release of 0.9.0
0.9.0-beta48: A pre-release of 0.9.0
0.9.0.67: An official release of 0.9.0
1.0.0-rc512: A pre-release of 1.0.0
22.214.171.1243: An official release of 1.0.0
The numbers are strictly ordered. The first three parts indicate the "main" version. The final part counts strictly upward.
The following list describes each of the parts and explains what to expect when it changes.
This part is also known as "Maintenance" (see Software versioning on Wikipedia).
There will only ever be one artifact of an official release corresponding to a given "main" version number.
That is, if
22.214.171.1243 exists, then there will never be a
184.108.40.2064. This is due the fact that the build number (e.g. 524) is purely for auditing.
For example, suppose your software uses a NuGet package with version
188.8.131.523. NuGet will not offer to upgrade to
There are no restrictions on the labels for pre-releases. However, it's recommended to use one of the following:
Be aware that if you choose a different label, then it is ordered alphabetically relative to the other pre-releases.
For example, if you were to use the label
pre-release to produce the version
0.9.0-prealpha21, then that version is considered to be higher than
0.0.0-alpha34. A tool like NuGet will not see the latter version as an upgrade.
The name of a release branch should be the major version of that release. E.g.
release/1 for version 1.x.x.x.
The name of a pre-release branch should be of the form
feature/[label] where
[label] is one of the labels recommended above. It's also OK to use a personal branch to create a pre-release build, as in
A developer uses the
quino tool to set the version.
For example, to set the version to 1.0.1, execute the following:
quino fix -v 18.104.22.168
The tool will have updated the version number in all relevant files.
The build server calculates a release's version number as follows,
The name of the Git branch determines which kind of release to produce.
**/release/*, then it's an official release
For example,
The name of the branch doesn't influence the version number since an official release doesn't have a label.
The label is taken from the last part of the branch name.
For example,
origin/feature/beta yields
origin/feature/rc yields
origin/mvb/rc yields
The following algorithm ensures that the label can be part of a valid semantic version.
X after a trailing digit
X if the label is empty (or becomes empty after having removed invalid characters)
For example,
origin/feature/rc1 yields
origin/feature/linux_compat yields
origin/feature/12 yields
Assume that,
origin/release/1 produces artifacts with version number
origin/feature/rc produces artifacts with version number
The following are very concise guides for how to produce artifacts.
quino fix -v 220.127.116.11
quino fix -v 126.96.36.199

A Vision for Tāmaki
Tāmaki is set to become an even more awesome place to live over the next 25 years.
A new masterplan for the area has been developed by Tāmaki Regeneration Company (TRC) and covers everything from new neighbourhood developments to improving transport options, town centres, parks and reserves, education, health and wellbeing. TRC regeneration and placemaking general manager Joanna Brain says there's already a strong sense of community in Tāmaki and the aim is to grow that even further.
"The focus is firmly centred on creating communities and neighbourhoods, rather than just building houses. The masterplan builds on Tāmaki's strong foundation and aims to deliver several strategies that will build social, economic and housing opportunities in the area." Joanna says the community has played a huge part in bringing the plan to life through their knowledge of what it's like to live in Tāmaki, providing valuable feedback over the years. "I want to thank the Tāmaki community and our other partners for their hard work and support. We're shaping Tāmaki together."
Working with the community, government agencies like Kāinga Ora – Homes and Communities (formerly HLC), Auckland Council and Auckland Transport will create greater opportunities for everyone in Tāmaki to live, play and grow. "There's plenty of hard work ahead, and we know there will be challenges, but by working together, we can be successful in bringing this plan to life," Joanna says.
So far most of TRC's neighbourhood developments have been delivered in Glen Innes, with planning underway in Pt England and northern Panmure for the next projects. Joanna says new housing will provide a mix of standalone, terraced houses and apartments that will meet the needs of Tāmaki's growing population. "Our innovative home ownership options, like the shared ownership programme, make living in Tāmaki more accessible, giving new and existing residents, including state housing tenants, the opportunity to buy their own home."
Along with creating warm, dry, energy-efficient houses for people to live in, TRC is also putting plenty of attention into improving facilities and services available in Tāmaki.
Upgrades to both major town centres in Tāmaki are being planned, with public transport playing an important role in getting people where they need to go, Joanna says.
An upgraded Glen Innes Transport Hub is planned, providing improved train and bus connections to the town centre and will complement the new transport hub at Panmure.
The public space around the Glen Innes Library and Te Oro Music and Arts Centre is set to be revitalised, with better links to Maybury Reserve and a new site for Ruapotaka Marae.
Plans for Panmure town centre include a community hub with civic space in the heart of the town centre where people can access the library and community centre.
And the Tāmaki Loop – an extension of the Pt England Walkway - will offer a shared10km pedestrian and cycle route, linking Panmure to Glen Innes. "These changes will make the heart of our communities very attractive for shopping locally and make it easier for residents to get to the places they want to go," Joanna says.
"Creating vibrant open spaces and enhancing our natural environments by restoring waterways, creating a network of boardwalks and upgrading lighting and pathways is essential to the overall plan."
With a growing population comes the need for Tāmaki's young people to get the best start in life.
That's why TRC is working with the Ministry of Education and Tāmaki's 11 schools and many early childhood centres to deliver a plan for local education, which supports youth on the path to a bright future, Joanna says.
These efforts build on training and education opportunities which are available through the Tāmaki Jobs & Skills Hub, which has also placed more than 600 people into work over the last seven years.
It's also essential to keep the growing population healthy, so to help with that, TRC is creating easier access to health facilities, strengthening Tāmaki's spiritual connection to the landscape and building warm, dry homes.
"Achieving better outcomes in education, employment and health, will improve the general wellbeing of our community over time," says Joanna.
