She's an independent radio producer, vocalist and composer trying new directions by fusing radio art, vocal art and composition. Her main focus is her personal field recordings: a large collection of unique sounds and soundscapes from rural and urban contemporary East‐Africa. Sound‐bit by sound‐bit she's transforming and sculpting them into something she would call "Afrique Concrète". Lierman's work has been broadcasted, exhibited and performed throughout Europe, Israel, Morocco, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and USA.
In April 2019 Aurélie Nyirabikali Lierman got (as part of Organo) nominated for the pre-selection of the Matthijs Vermeulenprijs 2019. October 2018 she won the CTM Radiolab in Berlin. In January 2016 Lierman was awarded the Sally and Don Lucas fellowship at Montalvo Arts in California. In May 2014 she won the First Prize at Monophonic 2014 (Brussels) for 'Anosmia', a radio composition reflecting on the Rwandan Genocide. In 2013 she won the 1st prize at Sonic Art (Rome) for her radio composition KARIAKOO ( a sonic portrait of a lively neighborhood in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania). In the same year, Lierman also won the 3rd prize at Grand Prix Nova (Bucharest) for her radio composition 'iota mikro' (based on field recordings from her birthplace, the Karisimbi vulcano, in Rwanda).
Lierman released two albums with the British cult-group Nurse With Wound, collaborated with visual artist Vincent Meessen (Belgian entry for Venice Biennale 2015) on his recent exhibition at Kunsthalle Basel and Bozar. And in summer 2015 she toured the USA premiering her solo sets for voice and tape.
Currently Lierman is preparing new music theatrical work commissioned by Ictus Ensemble to be premiered February 2020.

awwwww.....she is gorgeous!!! There is nothing more beautiful and heart warming than a new baby - a brand new little life. I'm also glad to hear your sister is well. And your knitting is beautiful - oh I wish I could knit!!!!ReplyDelete
Hugs, Samantha xx
oh she is so beautiful Paula. Your little cardi turned out really pretty, knitting can get a little addictive once you start and you have a good excuse to have some on the go in between the bears!ReplyDelete
Lovely to hear from you both! Thank you so much for popping by xReplyDelete
Samantha, I couldn't knit until I was expecting the birth of my first baby. I wanted her to wear pretty things but was poor as a church mouse at the time, so I hunted out a book and taught myself to knit, step by step. It's not hard once you get started - you are so creative, I'm sure you'd manage! I remember I loved filling my bottom drawer with pretty matinee jackets and cardigans in readinness for Fay's arrival! Boy, was that a long time ago!!!
Pauline, I'm so glad you like my little cardigan, coming from a fellow knitter that is a compliment indeed!

Waterbury HEALTH helped sponsor medical mission trip
A group of four providers from Waterbury HEALTH affiliate Alliance Medical Group recently returned from a weeklong mission to Guatemala. Dr. Kweku Sam, pediatrician, Jill Zabit, pediatric APRN, Jen Klepps, LPN and Roberta Paternostro, LPN were part of a 20-person team of medical volunteers as part of Crossroads Outreach Medical Mission International (COMMI). Waterbury HEALTH team members work in Middlebury and Southbury.
Waterbury HEALTH helped sponsor the mission to Esquipulas, Guatemala. The medical team was led by Dr Faustinus Onyirimba whose medical practice is affiliated with a sister network, Eastern Connecticut Health Network.
This was a first mission to Guatemala for the Waterbury HEALTH team following a devastating earthquake in that country. As part of this mission, The Crossroads Outreach Medical team saw an average of 300 patients a day, some of whom walked several hours to see a doctor. In one instance part of a group visited patients who live and work at a land fill. Besides medical care, the group provided meals to all patients.
"We encountered such poverty and need in Guatemala, but also wonderfully welcoming and grateful people. We are so humbled by this experience," said Dr. Sam.
Since 2011, COMMI has conducted annual medical missions to Guatemala, offering free clinics to indigent people of Esquipulas, helping over 8000 patients.
About Waterbury Health

A 34-year-old teacher was arrested for having a sexual relationship with a student, the El Dorado County Sheriff's Office said.
Jason Bourdett, 34, of Cameron Park was taken into custody on suspicion of having sex with a minor while he was a teacher at Natomas Pacific Pathways Charter School in Sacramento two years ago, according to a news release issued by the sheriff's office.
Investigators say the student met Bourdett when he was a teacher at Natomas Pacific Pathways Charter School back in 2017. She was 17-years-old at the time and says she met repeatedly with Bourdett at his Cameron Park home over the following 6 months.
Bourdett was employed as a teacher at El Dorado High School at the time of his arrest. However, the Sheriff's Office said that so far, there is "no evidence found of any other victims linked to Bourdett."

Spending time at the beach is supposed to be relaxing.
But for one unlucky woman, a holiday to the seaside took an unexpected turn – and left her in hospital.
The unnamed 60-year-old, from Ireland, was hit so hard by a wave that it ruptured one of the arteries in her neck.
Astounded doctors published the tale in a medical journal and claimed it to be the first ever case of its kind. It is unknown where the patient was on holiday.
An unnamed 60-year-old woman suffered a ruptured artery in her neck after a wave hit her while on holiday. Brain scan shows the thickened, and therefore weakened, artery
The woman began to experience dull headaches and neck pain almost immediately after the crashing wave struck.
She eventually went to hospital two weeks later, when her eyelids started to droop and and her pupils became uneven in size.
Initial brain scans revealed one of the arteries that supplies the brain with blood and oxygen had ruptured.
This is thought to have occurred due to the impact of the wave causing the small blood vessels within the artery to break apart.
The patient was diagnosed with the rare condition Horner's syndrome, according to the tale published in BMJ Case Reports.
This is caused by damage to the nerves in the face and results in the eyeball sinking into its cavity.
After being referred to Galway University hospital, medics discovered the patient's eyes were moving involuntarily but she was otherwise healthy.
She began experiencing dull headaches and neck pain almost immediately after the crashing wave struck. Brain scans show the length of the artery that ruptured during the incident
After initially taking aspirin to prevent her having a stroke, the patient came off the medication and was fully recovered six months later. Brain scan shows the healed artery back to normal
Horner's syndrome is defined as a decreased pupil size, a drooping eyelid and reduced sweating on one side of the face.
It occurs as a result of damage to nerve pathways from the brain to the face and the eye to one side of the body.
This may be due to a stroke, tumour or spinal cord injury, however, there is not always a cause.
Other symptoms include:
- Delayed opening of the pupil in dim light
- Elevation of the lower lid
- Sunken appearance to the eye
These symptoms can be subtle and difficult to detect.
Children under one may also have a lighter coloured iris in the affected eye.
Lack of redness in response to heat or exercise can also occur in youngsters.
Prompt treatment is required due to Horner's often occurring as a result of a serious condition.
There is no specific treatment for Horner's itself.
Symptoms often resolve when the underlying cause is treated.
Source: Mayo Clinic
After carrying out an MRI scan to be on the safe side, they found she was suffering from carotid artery dissection (CAD).
This occurs when blood leaks into a tear in the artery wall. As the blood pools, it causes the layers of the artery wall to separate.
This prevents oxygen reaching the brain and is responsible for up to 25 per cent of strokes in young adults. Physical trauma causes 40 per cent of all CAD cases.
However, Dr Etimbuk Umana, who wrote the case report, said she had never before heard of a beach wave causing the condition.
Horner's syndrome is thought to occur in between 25 and 60 per cent of patients with CAD.
The woman's damage had fully repaired itself after six months, doctors wrote in the journal.
She was initially given aspirin to reduce her risk of stroke, but it was stopped when a scan showed oxygen-rich blood was still reaching her brain.
Doctors were also concerned the blood-thinning drug may pose a bleeding risk.
A scan revealed the swellings of clotted blood in her artery were resolving on their own and did not require further treatment.
'I continued to experience a lot of soreness over my forehead for a few weeks, not relieved by painkiller tablets,' the patient said.
'Eventually after taking Lyrica for a few months my pain subsided.'
Lyrica is a brand name for the painkiller pregabalin, which is also used to treat epilepsy and anxiety.
According to the doctors, more research is required to determine if anti-clotting drugs benefit patients in cases such as this.

Her voice is as beautiful as ever.
The holiday season just got a bit warmer now with the release of songstress India.Arie's latest album.
Christmas With Friends is a 10-track jazz album featuring the musical stylings of late pianist Joe Sample. The two met in 2012 at the Curacao Jazz Festival and immediately hit it off.They started working on a Christmas album together prior to Sample's passing in 2014.
According to Billboard, Arie just wrapped up a 7-city tour with stops in New York City, Boston, Washington D.C. and other east coast destinations. She told the outlet the album was a passion project. Featuring classic tunes like "Silent Night," Arie recruited some of music's biggest names to lend their voices to these timeless songs.
"I sent several songs to each person and said do what you feel," India.Arie told Billboard.

Snow joke
Olinda residents woke up to snow on Saturday and Sunday mornings as the state shivered through a cold spell.
Emerald SES was kept busy attending 43 incidents on Friday 9 August, and then another 20 over the weekend.
Unit controller Ben Owen said there were no major disasters, apart from a tree that fell onto a house and "tore it to bits".
"The family arrived after the incident and we supported them and helped with finding alternative accommodation," he said.
On Friday, the unit also received assistance from Whittlesea SES.
"Whittlesea came up to help, which was good as being a work-day on Friday we were a bit under the pump," Mr Owen said.
With snow falling in Olinda and Sassafras the SES was also assisting vehicles that got stuck in the slush.
"We had crews up there assessing it in case we got some calls, but mainly had minor vehicle incidents with cars sliding into other cars or getting stuck in snow," Mr Owen said.
He said the state was now coming into the windy season, and reminded residents to drive with lights on in snowy and foggy conditions and to maintain caution around trees.
"Trees are still falling down, so be mindful of that," he said.
Anyone interested in joining SES can contact the unit on Facebook at Emerald SES Unit.

Police charged a Silvan man in his twenties with handling stolen goods, weapons possession and a petrol drive-off.
They intercepted the man driving in Silvan on 5 August.
Inside the vehicle they allegedly found a stolen leafblower and knives.

9th International Phosphorus Workshop – IPW9
The unique trait of the International Phosphorus Workshops (IPW) is the combination of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The IPW's arose from the understanding that eutrophication of waters is related to phosphorus management on land, including rural and urban areas, and that combating any phosphorus related problems requires the proper understanding of biogeochemical mechanisms and processes underlying the terrestrial-aquatic phosphorus continuum.
The 9th International Phosphorus Workshop will take place
from 8 to 12 July 2019
in ETH Zurich, Switzerland.
The aims of IPW9 are to gather experts from natural, engineering and social sciences in order to
- Discuss concepts, which drive research and use of phosphorus in our societies;
- Review the progress in knowledge and technology related to phosphorus;
- Define questions for future research and action to solve phosphorus related problems.
These objectives will be addressed in five themes, each from an interdisciplinary perspective, including natural, engineering, socio-economic and political sciences. Novel results and methodologies shall be presented as well as science-to-application case studies.
Registration is required. Further details on registration fees, program and speaker as well as general information can be found on the conference website.

« ElõzõTovįbb »
expressed in a few coppers saved here and there, — a paltry reward for so much eloquence about extravagance, — but should reach into billions.
At the end of the Civil War the South was impoverished and was an unfruitful field for the tax-gatherer. A fifth of the present population of the country was at the moment staggering under a burden of expenditure as great, when the difference in wealth is considered, as that which rested upon us after the World War. And yet the statesmen of that period resolutely cut down expenditure and taxation, attacked our enormous debt, and put it in process of extinction. We should do well now to imitate the spirit they then displayed.
At the beginning of the World War the operation of all the machinery of our government cost, in a round sum, a billion dollars. That this amount was not generally regarded as representing an economical basis may be inferred from what the leaders of each party said about the other when each party had in turn expended substantially a like sum. But as against this billion, we are told that, for the fiscal year which runs through the winter and well into the summer of the fourth year after the Armistice, four and a half billions are needed. There would appear to be little need of our having more government now than before the war; but granting that fifty per cent more government is necessary, an additional five hundred million dollars would be required, which is more than the total annual cost of the government under Cleveland. We should add to that the billion dollars necessary to pay the interest upon the war-debt; and then, to be generous, if not, indeed, extravagant, five hundred millions more may be added, to cover contingencies. We should then have a cool three billions, or three times the amount required just
before we entered the war. What need — or, indeed, excuse — is there for spending more than three billion dollars during the present fiscal year? But when four and a half billions are demanded, one may fairly ask whether the resources of statesmanship have been seriously employed, much less, exhausted.
Useless expenditure will attempt to fasten itself upon the treasury, and the life of the emergencies which make it necessary will be protracted by every art. But if it is attacked with resolution, it will yield.
An instance of this is shown in the reduction of our army. It was proposed to cut the army to 150,000 men, and a variety of objections was urged against the proposal. The one seeming to have the most merit was that contracts of enlistment had already been made, and the government would need to repudiate many of its contracts with its soldiers in order to make the reduction. But Congress, to its credit, insisted upon cutting down the army; and, almost before the bill had passed, the reduction was effected. The men were very willing to be released from their contracts.
To cut off a billion and a half of expenditure more than is now proposed would go far toward emancipating the productive energies of the country, and toward that revival of industry which is so necessary to the restoration of prosperity, and especially to the reemployment of labor.
There is an intimate relation between the expenditure of government and what is called disarmament, in which Mr. Borah has so nobly led. A great saving of public money would undoubtedly result from putting in force an international agreement making a radical reduction in armaments; and no harm could come to any nation if the reduction were made proportional and world-wide. Very great items in military expenditure, grouped under the title of the 'cost of past wars,' would of course be untouched. The interest upon war-debts, and the pension rolls would still remain.
Disarmament also would have a distinct bearing upon the future peace of the world. Sometimes the possession of powerful armaments might tempt nations to use them. It would be a very great thing to do away wholly, by general agreement, with many of those terrible engines which have been devised simply for the destruction of man. If in mythical times, as I have at another time said, a single one of our modern dreadnaughts or submarines had been seen upon the ocean, whoever should have destroyed such an enemy of mankind would have received the general applause of the world, as did the hero who slew the fabled Hydra. How immeasurably greater then would be the fame of him who should to-day make free our oceans, swarming with these monsters, and send them all to the bottom.
But there is extremely little likelihood of such a result. The portents of modern war have ceased to spread terror among a race which sets no limit upon its daring. If the old Hydra should come back in our time, and should appear to be more horrible than the other engines of destruction, it is likely that our munition-makers would at once take it up and attempt to reproduce great numbers of the monster, and our appropriation bills would doubtless supply suitable sums for their purchase. To carry out a sweeping disarmament would imply a radical change of view with regard to war, which would be very wholesome.
But we must guard against any illusions regarding the effect of a reduction of armament, extreme or otherwise, upon the likelihood of war. Such a policy would not go to the root
of the peace-problem. Neither reduction of armaments nor complete disarmament would furnish a sufficient solution.
Our country declared war in 1812, when it had practically no army at all. Cleveland sent his warlike Venezuelan message to Congress in 1894, when we were defenseless against England. France declared war against Germany in 1870, with hardly half the military strength that her adversary possessed. Time and again nations with relatively weak armaments have embarked upon war. For very many years the laws of England recognized only the militia, whose training was limited to fourteen days a year; and Macaulay, in his lively fashion, wrote of the concern of patriots at staking the independence of their country upon the result of a contest between ploughmen officered by justices of the peace and veteran warriors led by marshals of France. And yet England and her kings more than once took the chances and went to war. Nations will still have their differences, and under the present system they are likely to go to war to settle them, or to attain their ambitions, even if they all have weak armies and navies, or none at all.
War has become a matter largely of chemistry, and a nation might rely upon its superior laboratories in order quickly to blow up or poison its adversary. It might rely upon its superior proficiency in the art of flying, and its flocks of commercial air-planes would be at once available for warlike use. It requires no argument to prove that the military microbe, which has infected the blood of man for uncounted centuries, still persists. Unless nations shall provide some way to settle their controversies peaceably, they can be relied upon now and then to settle them by force. Thus, while a material reduction of armaments will bring about a welcome saving, it will leave the general question of peace far from a final settlement.
It is indispensable that there should be an arrangement among nations to resort to some peaceful method of settling differences before taking up arms, and scarcely less necessary if they have no armaments at all than if they possess them.
The plan with which Mr. Wilson associated his name may have been far from perfect in all its details, but it was the noblest attempt at practical idealism that has ever been made by any statesman. It was evident that there must be some general and central agreement to outlaw war, and that the nations must band themselves together for that purpose, or that wars would happen in the future just as they had happened in the past. It was just as evident, also, that another general war, with the methods of warfare that have come in, as barbarous as they are destructive, might mean the obliteration of civilization, if not the extinction of the race.
It is objected that such an arrangement would infringe upon the sovereignty of nations. Precisely the same objection might be made against an agreement for the reduction of armaments. What more sovereign power is there in a nation, and what one is more necessary to its preservation than the power to arm? If by agreement it consents to put a limitation upon this power, it could as well be argued that it was limiting its sovereignty. But the right of a nation to shoot up the world and to endanger civilization should be limited, just as the right of an individual to shoot up the community in which he lives is limited.
Any treaty obligation is, in the sense in which the argument has been advanced, a limitation upon sovereignty, Aat is, a limitation upon the power of
a nation to do anything it may choose. In order to meet the requirement of such a claim, we should have international anarchy, when each nation would be subject to no law of nations, but only to its own will and to such self-imposed notions of righteousness as it might see fit to recognize and put in force. So long as the area of law is circumscribed within the boundaries of states, and separate aggregations of men do not come within its sway, we shall have a lawless universe. The right of collective bodies of men to murder, pillage, and commit piracy against their neighbors is no greater than that of the individual, and the assertion of such a right involves a brutal and barbarous conception of a nation, which should at once be brought to an end.
But we are told that the thing has all been settled by the last election; and Mr. Harvey, having referred to the little glory, at his own appraisal, with which we emerged from the war, declares that we are to have no part in the League. That, he tells us, was decreed by America by 7,000,000 majority. It must be conceded that, if we are to accept any part of the League, we are proceeding in that direction with impressive deliberation. Perhaps we are to come to it by way of the Pacific. But as to the significance of the sweeping majority, a distinguished and influential group of Republicans, headed by Mr. Taft, Mr. Hughes, and Mr. Root, told us before the election that the only way to enter the League was to have a Republican victory. Then, too, we must not overlook the fact that great race-groups were functioning and voting with reference to their fatherlands. No one can tell just what was decreed by the voters — whether the amended League of Messrs. Hughes and Root, or the no league of Messrs. Johnson and Harvey.
After one of the tremendous tides sometimes following a heavy storm at sea, the waters reach heights before almost unknown, and it seems doubtful whether the old landmarks will ever again appear. But on the next day, perhaps, when the sun shines and the waters have gone back to the old level, the only result one can see of the farthundering upheaval is that there are scattered upon the sand some strange little creatures such as were never seen before, which have been thrown up from the nether realms and will disappear with the next tide. Even the familiar bones of some old wreck are still there, and, as if more widely to proclaim their uselessness, are even pushed up higher upon the sands.
In the same way, great results in politics are not apt to come to pass from what are called' tidal waves.' Grandiloquent majorities sometimes indicate that the political atmosphere is seeking its equilibrium by a tempest, and that the settled current of popular opinion may ultimately blow in the opposite direction. The sweeping victory of Pierce, in 1852, for example, settled nothing, and a reaction set in which nullified his victory. Only the most commonplace results followed upon the triumphant election of the first Harrison. But Lincoln, chosen by a mere plurality, with the majority of all votes cast for other candidates, and Wilson, another plurality president, creeping in between Taft and Roosevelt, were linked with things that shaped destiny and shook the world. To borrow an instance from across the sea — the Kaiser has not yet been hanged, notwithstanding the astonishing victory of Mr. Lloyd George, with that among his assortment of issues, three years ago. Generally, anything has been settled by tidal waves except the thing about which the politicians have most fiercely declaimed.
If nothing is to be done by our country upon the peace-problem except a cutting down of armaments, the work of garnering the supreme result of the war will remain undone. When the fighting was ended, the almost universal opinion of the country would have found expression in the phrase so pathetically reiterated by President Harding on the return to the country of thousands of our fallen heroes: 'It must not be again.'
If, upon the day of the Armistice, President Wilson had declared that, in the treaty which he was to negotiate, he would not consent to our entering into any combination of nations to outlaw war, it is impossible to believe that, in that moment of victory, his declaration would not have been received with general execration. Of one thing we may be sure — as a result of such a reversal, peace would have had champions new and strange, and there would have been a radically different cast appearing afterward in the roles of the morning stars singing together for joy. But the issue was adjourned, and the pressing duty of the hour was put off. It seemed to become stale. Eternal debate took the place of action. Our memories became blunted, as year after year the grass sprang up anew on the French battlefields.
But the course to be taken is as clear before us to-day as it was two years or more ago. There is already formed a union of nations, of which, with scarcely an exception, all the nations of the Western Hemisphere are members except our own. Germany, it is understood, is willing to join when the right to do so shall be given her. Russia is at this time too dismembered and chaotic to speak with the voice of national authority upon any subject. In effect, America is the only part of the organized world that stands aloof. Let us make clear the conditions upon which we will join hands with the civilized nations. The choice is clearly before us. We can show ourselves willing that the world should go on, as it has gone, exposed to the danger that some maniac may throw the brand that will wrap the universe in flames, and then we may marshal and consume our wealth, and drag our boys
patriotism send them to destruction; or we may play the part of reasonable creatures and unite with the rest of the world to make the thing measurably impossible by extending the reign of law over nations. Not to choose the latter course would be basely to array ourselves with the forces at war with
from their mothers, and with pagans of civilization.
The world has long been seeking to solve the great problem of the maintenance of peace. War is as 'old as man; and he who wishes to limit its ravages may learn its most useful lessons from some rather old books — Thucydides, Demosthenes, Grotius, and our own Federalist. To the neglect of these lessons we may lay the carnage of the last seven years and the futile efforts to form a league of nations. If we would put aside our prepossessions, and study a few books that may be found in any good library, we might easily learn what may and may not be done to eliminate war. In the matter of preventing war, nothing is so absurd that it has not been advanced by some writer. What is most needed is a statement of the problem. We may safely assume, for the purpose of this study, that human nature is unchanging, — though it varies greatly in different races, — and that morality is stationary.
A sharp distinction must be carefully kept in mind between domestic and
international peace, and between civil and international wars. Much of the confusion and incoherence of thought about peace and war is due to our failure to make this distinction.
International war and civil or domestic war are separate and distinct phenomena. An international war is a contest between nations or states; a civil or domestic war is a contest between parts of the same nation or state. The character of the military operations is very much alike in both cases; but the political problems involved are as far apart as the poles. Nevertheless, we continually meet people in search of a formula that would have prevented the American Revolution and the Boer War, which were civil wars within the British Empire, and the great international warof 1914. No one with sufficient logic to distinguish these cases expects to find a specific for civil wars. There is none, except good government; but it is not infallible. We shall first consider civil wars.

We're excited to announce that we have officially launched our new solution: Zero Trust Application Access. This new solution will allow our customers to provide their workforce with secured, Zero Trust access to popular web applications — without an agent.
Our new Zero Trust Application Access solution seamlessly employs multiple security layers of user trust and device trust policy validation. With the Zero Trust Application Access solution, employees are validated and granted quick access to applications in a session that will be fully audited and can be recorded and monitored.
Zero Trust Application Access allows you to easily manage application access by creating customized policies with a more granular authentication approach. By applying user identification rules, you can seamlessly and continuously protect your organization's applications. The identification access rules can be based on network, device, location, work schedule and connection time.
Secure Application Access
Our new Zero Trust Application Access solution is designed to meet the demands of today's ever-expanding modern network and ensure fully secured, isolated and agentless access to an organization's critical web applications.
With Zero Trust Application Access you'll now have:
- Fully Audited Access: Secure application-level access by fully auditing, recording and monitoring each session.
- Application Deployment Access: Based on customized protocols, organizations can deploy four types of applications: secure shell (SSH), remote desktop (RDP), virtual network computing (VNC) and Telnet.
- Identification Policy Rules: User identification rules seamlessly and continuously protect your organization's applications.
- Advanced Threat Protection: Comprehensive protection against both known and unknown threats, including threats on mobile devices.
Zero Trust Access Principles
Conventional security models assume everything "on the inside" can be trusted, which is why these legacy technologies are, for the most part, no longer effective. Our new service secures the network, employees, and applications by applying Zero Trust guidelines that isolate applications from the network at all times.
With unparalleled visibility, control, and threat protection, our Zero Trust Application Access provides a completely transparent experience for all users without needing to modify existing networks.
By implementing Perimeter 81's Zero Trust Application Access, our customers can experience several technical and business advantages, including:
- Mitigating Data Loss: Dramatically enhance your security posture and mitigate data loss via visibility, safe enablement of applications and threat prevention.
- Increasing Efficiency: Simplify compliance with highly effective trust boundaries by segmenting sensitive resources into many small perimeters that are secured based on user permissions.
- Enabling Mobility and Virtualization: Increase the ability to accommodate transformative IT initiatives such as cloud computing, infrastructure virtualization, user mobility, social networking and more.
- Reducing TCO: Reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) for IT security by replacing disconnected point products with a single, consolidated security platform.
- Increased Visibility: With audited access to cloud environments, applications and local services, Perimeter 81's Zero Trust Application Access increases security, monitoring and visibility while reducing help-desk support.
- Increased Security: By encrypting all data and filtering unwanted traffic, organizations can prevent sophisticated cyber threats from penetrating perimeter defenses.
Perimeter 81 Zero Trust Application Access complements our Zero Trust Network Access solution, which ensures simple secure access to any cloud environment or LAN. With Zero Trust Secure Application Access and Zero Trust Network Access, Perimeter 81 is now among the first Networks as a Service to deliver a complete Zero Trust network security platform for both managed and unmanaged devices as a cloud service.

It's been almost a month since I've done one of these columns so here's how this is going to work if you're new to it or just forgot (I know I kind of did).
I'll list the nominees (up to 5) and then choose the game of the year and runner-up. The games chosen have to be games that I've played. They don't have to have been played at the time, but they do have to have been released within the year noted in the title.
Note: You may very well disagree with some of my choices, but that's why it's a good list.
Devil's Crush (TG-16)
Mega Man 3 (NES)
Mercs (Arcade)
Smash TV (Arcade)
Super C (NES)
1990 Game of the Year: Super C
Runner-up: Mega Man 3
Of course, to nobody's surprise, Super C would have to be my Game of the Year for 1990. It's an improvement in almost every way over the original NES title. I say almost because the bosses eventually get easier as you progress through the game. The last two stage bosses are definitely a joke when compared to the very first two. Otherwise, the game has a good ramp up in difficultly and also the fireball weapon is much better.
The runner-up is good ol' Mega Man 3. I remember mainly enjoying the game with the Game Genie because, well, I'm not very good at Mega Man games to begin with. The highlight of the game for me was the return of the eight Mega Man 2 bosses once you reached Dr. Wily's castle. My favorite stages have to be Magnet Man and Gemini Man with the ones I liked the least being Snake Man and Hard Man. Those bees can be annoying on the latter stage.
What's your favorite game of 1990? Also, what Mega Man 3 stages do you like and/or dislike?

Multiple Selection Listbox in JavaScript
Before going through this article I would like to encourage you to please go through my other article on dropdown list. It will help you understand this article.
In this article I am going to illustrate following
- How to enable multiple selection in listbox.
- How to populate value in second listbox from values of first listbox including the multiple selection in first listbox.
- How to use static array in JavaScript and access its values.
for example, suppose if first listbox displays two list items "Food" and "Drink" then selecting "Food" from first listbox, the second listbox should display all available food items. Similarly selecting item "Drink" from first listbox, second listbox should display all available drink items. However, If both the "Food" and "Drink" options are selected in first listbox, the second listbox should display both food and drink options available.
see figure 1 below. The output displays first listbox with two options and second empty listbox.
See output in figure 2 when user select "Food" from first listbox.
Similarly as in fugure 3, the items related to drink is displays when user selects "Drink" from first listbox.
And when user select both items i.e. "Food" and "Drinks" from first listbox, the second listbox displays all items for both the categories as shown in figure 4.
and further selection or deselection of any items in first listbox will update second listbox accordingly.
To implement such functionality first create two lists boxes using simple HTML as shown in code below.
<form>
Food Type
 <select class='form-control' id='firstList' name='firstList' onClick='getFoodItem()' multiple> </select>
Food Item
 <select class='form-control' id='secondList' name='secondList' size="12"> </select> </form>
remember to add attribute multiple in first listbox. This will allow users to select more than one list item from listbox using CTRL key. Otherwise user will not be able to select multiple items.
$(document).ready(function () { var list1 = document.getElementById('firstList'); list1.options[0] = new Option('Snacks', 'Snacks'); list1.options[1] = new Option('Drinks', 'Drinks'); });
after this add the main logic. The main logic is implemented inside getFoodItem() function which is a JavaScript function and will be invoked as soon as one or more items are selected in the listbox, here in this example the first listbox because the methos is bound to it using OnClick attribute. The logic is as following.
function getFoodItem(){ var list1 = document.getElementById('firstList'); var list2 = document.getElementById("secondList"); list2.options.length=0; var food = ["Burger", "Pizza", "Hotdog", "Potato Chips", "French Fries"]; var drink = ["Coca Cola", "7up", "Pepsi", "Coffee", "Tea", "Green Tea"]; var i=0; for (var c=0;c<list1.length;c++) { if(list1[c].selected) { if (list1[c].value=='Snacks') { for (var j=0;j<food.length;j++){ list2.options[i++] = new Option(food[j], food[j]); } } if (list1[c].value=='Drinks'){ for (var k=0;k<drink.length;k++) { list2.options[i++] = new Option(drink[k], drink[k]); } } } } }
in the finction above I have also created static array in javascript named 'food' and 'drink'. The syntax for creating is given below.
var arrayName = [value-1, value-2, ... value-n];
The values of arrays can be accessed using index numbers as following.
For example
food[0] food[1]
or using loop
for ( var index = 0; index < food.length; index ++ ){ food[index]; }
where food.length returns the length of array food.
The logic uses three loops. The first is the outer loop for traversing all items in first listbox. The condition inside this outer loop checks whether or not any item is selected and other two nested conditions checks which item is selected.
Inside these conditions the other two loops are specified to traverse through all items of the two arrays and to add them to second listbox.
To run this example you may also need to include JQuery library because the function $(document).ready(function () {});is used. JQuery can be included by downloading it's local copy or directly from CDN. The example for including it from CDN is given below.

Nelson Selected to Fill District 3 School Board Seat
A 20-year U.S. Army veteran with seven years working elite Special Operations and counter-terrorism missions has been selected to fill the unexpired term of the District 3 Clarksville-Montgomery County School Board seat. Herbert A. Nelson, Jr. will be sworn in to the office on July 1 and will serve until the next County General Election in August 2020. He retired from the Army with honorable service as an intelligence analyst. He spoke to the School Board Tuesday night, after which the Board voted to accept him as the replacement for Danny Kittrell, who relocated to South Carolina. "I have lived in Clarksville over 20 years and understand the tremendous challenges that the Clarksville-Montgomery County School System faces in making it a top-notched system and ensuring that all students receive a quality education," Nelson noted. "I have witnessed the changes that have been made and would like to be a part of the system's continued success." Nelson earned an M.B.A. from Lipscomb University with a human resources concentration. He holds a B.A. in business administration from the University of Maryland, and a B.A. in liberal arts from Excelsior University in Albany, New York. His education background also includes certification from the Joint Military College. Nelson currently is an electronic security specialist for the Tennessee Department of Corrections.
Three Rossview High students make perfect ACT scores
Only one-tenth of one percent of the 2.1 million test takers achieve a perfect score on the American College Testing, better known as the ACT. Clarksville-Montgomery County School System rising seniors Emily Mayes and Charlotte Lange and newly graduated Joseph Bierman are among that miniscule number earning a 36 when they took the test this school year. ACT officials say the test, which more than 1.9 million students took last year, hasn't changed in any meaningful way since 1989, the Cincinnati "Enquirer" recently reported. In taking a comprehensive look at ACT scores, the "Enquirer" noted that students armed with No. 2 pencils still get three anxious hours to answer multiple choice questions about math, English, science and reading that could help determine whether they get into their college of choice. The average test scores haven't changed much, either. Those have hovered around 21 for at least the past five years. ACT has seen a slight rise in those scoring a 36 in recent years. They are attributing the increase to better test preparation. In Tennessee, curriculum standards now are better aligned to what is tested on the ACT. All CMCSS high schools offer an ACT test preparation course before eleventh graders take the exam. The Tennessee Legislature requires all high school juniors take the test, regardless of the students' plans to attend college. CMCSS sees about one student every few years scoring a 36 Composite (36 on all sections). On average, five to 10 CMCSS students achieve a 35 composite each year. On individual content subjects, CMCSS students have seen scores of 36. For example in 2017-18, CMCSS showed the following data: In English, 14 students scored 36, and 22 had 35 In Reading, 19 students scored 36, and 22 scored 35 In Science, 10 students scored 36, and 9 scored […]
Early Learning Teacher Residency Signing Day
On Friday, May 24, CMCSS and APSU hosted a signing day event for the first cohort of the Early Learning Teacher Residency, an innovative three-year residency and degree program developed in partnership between APSU and CMCSS. In 1975, 22 percent of all college students dreamed of becoming teachers. Forty-four years later, that number has plummeted to about 4 percent, prompting the CBS Evening News to recently label the national teacher shortage "an education crisis." Officials with the Clarksville-Montgomery County School System and the Austin Peay State University Eriksson College of Education have kept a close eye on the growing crisis, and the two organizations recently formed an innovative partnership to train and keep teachers in this community. "We have been looking at different teacher pipelines to get teachers in the school system, and growing our own was a natural place to go," Millard House II, CMCSS Director of Schools, said. Earlier this spring, the school system and APSU launched the Early Learning Teacher Residence program, which will provide 20 recent high school graduates and 20 CMCSS teacher's aides with an accelerated, free path to become full-time school system teachers in just three years. The program specifically targets minority and first-generation college students, increasing diversity both within the school system and at Austin Peay. "The idea is to put them into five of our lower socioeconomic elementary schools, in a lower grade, where they will be mentored by some of the most exemplary teachers we have," Dr. Sean Impeartrice, CMCSS chief academic officer, said. "The whole idea of the residency is not providing them one year of student teaching but three years of learning their craft from the very best." These students, known as residents, primarily will be placed in kindergarten through second-grade classrooms with a smaller number going to third […]

text: A number of us in the BRS are involved with one component or another of the military; that means we spend a fair amount of time in our combat boots. Granted, everything a combat boot is all about is the antithesis of minimal footwear, but what is the MOST minimal combat boot? Perhaps the most minimal boot wouldn't even qualify for the reduced footwear category, but I'd still like to find which one has the thinnest, most flexible sole, the lowest heel, and the widest toebox. Any thoughts?

As I write this on a dark, rainy and cold (everything is relative) SoCal afternoon, futures flash-crashed lower as they opened in Globex. So much so, I actually had to recompute the major index Levels.
We currently are trading below the lower edge of the SP500 weekly option implied move. Whether this begets dynamic hedging and further selling tomorrow, time will tell. One thing is certain, it remains a phenomenal Trading Regime. In fact, more than 25% of trading days this year have experienced average daily ranges in excess of 45 SP500 points.
Catalysts remain high the remainder of the week in our updated Economic Calendar, but note the testimony of Fed Chair Powell missing. OPEC, Brexit expectations (GS says it will fail on the first try), and Tariff Man cheering the market into a Santa Claus rally are more than enough to keep algos gainfully employed
Bigger picture, we ping Level-to-Level where we observe clearly identified risk confluence zones for 2018.
Critical as well, but not shown and mentioned in other notes are Financials (XLF) at the 26.50 Level. Selling accelerated Tuesday when that Level was breached to the downside.
Tactically, we should consolidate and recover toward 2734.50, within the option implied move.
As always, if what we anticipate fails to occur, then the opposite move is more reactionary and our Levels provide the range of possibilities.
All the best,

The Lyric Hammersmith presents the first revival in 25 years of Edward Bond's seminal play, Saved.
Banned by the censor on its 1965 premiere, Saved divided the critics with its vision of working class South London, a shocking portrayal of violence which included a scene in which a baby was stoned to death. Backed by industry figures including Laurence Olivier, Saved was instrumental in the eventual abolition of the censor and has proved a highly influential piece of work, inspiring a generation of British playwrights.
Following last year's revival of the equally controversial Blasted, by Sarah Kane, Lyric Hammersmith Artistic Director Sean Holmes directs this new production of Saved.
Saved is followed, in April 2012, by the staging of three short one-act plays by Bond, two of which are directed by the playwright himself.
Saved is suitable for theatregoers aged 14 and older.
For more about Saved at the Lyric Hammersmith read the First Night Feature.

By Gery L. Deer
With a single sentence early in the text of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson established the concept of human equality in a fledgling country. "We hold these truths to be self-evident," Jefferson famously penned, "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
Ironically, many of the men who signed the final version of the document were slave owners, with no acknowledgement of the hypocrisy they were about to go to war to protect. It took more than a century after John Hancock applied his prominent penmanship to the parchment to bring about a law that would provide the basis for the ultimate guarantee of a free and equal society. But it didn't exactly work out that way.
Passed on July 9, 1868, the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, in theory, sets equal status for each citizen. The wording clearly recognizes "citizens" as having either been born within the country or naturalized and goes on to grant equal privileges to each with no specifically stated restrictions based on gender, ethnicity, economic status, sexual preference or anything else.
At the time it was written, America was still experiencing shell shock following the Civil War, and it would be some time before full enforcement of the 14th would be widespread. Early on, even the government seemed to be choosing to ignore its own laws wherever it pleased to do so. A large part of the virtual annihilation of the Native American populations within the United States took place after the 14th was passed.
This legislation should have immediately equalized anyone born in the country, regardless of gender or race. But this was rarely the case. Some whites, particularly in the south, rejected the concept of overall equality. Racism and general prejudice ran high throughout the region, becoming violent on far too many occasions.
For those situations not expressly dealt with under the 14th, supplemental legislation has had to be passed to address those issues. But some people are offended that any subsequent legislation is required to enforce those "unalienable rights" already granted by the Constitution. In their eyes, doing so only serves to solidify the idea that anyone other than the able-bodied, white male was somehow inferior and now needed 'special' legal considerations.
Sublime in their fortitude and thirst for liberty, America's Founding Fathers are quoted by academics, politicians, world figureheads and even religious leaders. But in many ways that honorarium is less deserved because of staggering moral shortsightedness by not extending basic civil rights to everyone. Such a simple act in the beginning may have upended the economy of the new country, but it might also have helped preempt two hundred years of prejudice, war and bloodshed.
In the end, all rights are 'civil,' established and enforced by duly elected representatives of the people. Even with the country so divided over these issues, the government still has a chance to enforce the original purpose of the 14th Amendment.
People are always going to be frightened of change. But the opportunity remains to squelch old prejudice and make sure that all men, all citizens, are equal under the law no matter the color of their skin, to which god they pray, or whom they choose to marry.
It may be that no more laws need to be created. Each citizen is already endowed with the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; not as much by their creator, as the 14th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America. If it really is the Supreme Law of the Land, it needs to be applied that way. If it doesn't happen soon, Jefferson's goal of an equal citizenry will never be much more than a pipe dream.

In the beginning we all had simple life with less stuff. As a child we were happy in our own small world. But as we grew up, we got carried away by the wind of advertisement, social status, peer pressure blah blah blah. This created unnecessary desire to buy all those latest gadgets, earn more, spend more, be more etc.
Life is now complicated. We now think that happiness is in buying latest things and owning more. We think we are missing all kinds of happiness and fun others are having. We are forgetting that we will always be absent in many places when we are present in one place but instead desire to do more, earn more and own more is growing more intense.
Just brainstorm, whatever you are doing or thinking now, will it matter in 5 years from now? Do all those stress worth our time? We watch TV endlessly, hang in social networking sites for long time, blah blah blah . Do those matter in long run?
As you will always be absent in millions of places when you are present in one place. So, just focus on what's important like health, important relationship, personal development and type of contribution you want to give to this world. Doing these things will make your life much simpler than it is now.

I have the tendency to be swept up into feelings akin to that old phrase "the grass is always greener," always wanting.
When I was a young teen I wanted to be 16 so I could drive; then it was, all I want is to graduate and be done with school. After graduation I was a bit boy crazy and all I could think of was how much I wanted to be married. I got married and wanted nothing more than to have a baby. I finally achieved that and not long after having our little bundle of joy I found myself again in the wanting.
Who knew babies would be such work ;). I don't have the time to just read when ever I want to any more I can barley get myself ready for the day. I hate being cooped up in the house, I want him to be just a little older then we can go places and do things just have a bit more freedom. Now I don't know about you but the never ending wanting is a thing that can just suck you till your dry.
Then I read Hunted by Meagan Spooner.
"Though Yeva grew up with the city's highest aristocrats, far from her father's old lodge, she knows that the forest holds secrets and that her father is the only hunter who's ever come close to discovering them.
So when her father loses his fortune and moves Yeva and her sisters back to the outskirts of town, Yeva is secretly relieved. Out in the wilderness, there's no pressure to make idle chatter with vapid baronessas…or to submit to marrying a wealthy gentleman. But Yeva's father's misfortune may have cost him his mind, and when he goes missing in the woods, Yeva sets her sights on one prey: the creature he'd been obsessively tracking just before his disappearance.
Deaf to her sisters' protests, Yeva hunts this strange Beast back into his own territory–a cursed valley, a ruined castle, and a world of creatures that Yeva's only heard about in fairy tales. A world that can bring her ruin or salvation. Who will survive: the Beauty, or the Beast?"
Its a really good retelling of a classic "Beauty and The Beast" with a wonderful twist and message. Now I don't want to spoil to much but I have to say I love how she used the story to portray that cycle I was in and how detrimental it can be to ones health and sanity.
Meagan did a wonderful job of pulling me into a well known story, yet still have me questioning things. I enjoyed that she touched on that slightly mocked part of beauty and the beast where people say its not love, its called Stockholm syndrome; and made the reason for beauty's need to return a little more believable.
Needless to say this book was not only a wonderful retelling but an eye opener into my need to be happy where I am and with what I have in the now. -A.B.

Although 66% of marketers rate their personalization efforts as very good or excellent, just 31% of consumers say companies are consistently delivering individualized cross-channel experiences, according to a recent report from SAP Hybris and Forrester Consulting.
The report was based on data from surveys of 1,200 global consumers and 200 advertising and marketing professionals at organizations with 500 or more employees.
Only 16% of the marketers surveyed say their organization is able to capture customer intent and deliver real-time, behavior-based marketing across all channels.
Some 40% of consumers surveyed say most promotions they receive don't deliver anything of interest, and 44% say they receive too many offers.

Vivo has been creative with its smartphone in order to achieve a design like no other brand. Last year Vivo released the Vivo NEX which was as close to a bezel-less smartphone as a phone could get. The Vivo NEX featured an edge to edge display with a mechanized pop-up camera for selfies, eliminating the need of a notch. The company has recently announced the successor of NEX, it is called the NEX 2.
The NEX 2 takes things a step further by replacing the pop-up camera with a screen. The Vivo Nex 2 is a dual screen smartphone which can be used from either side.
Apart from the Vivo NEX 2, Vivo is going to take the industry by storm with another of its smartphone. With tipster claiming this upcoming device to be a "crazy phone" and adding "you have never seen a similar phone design", it has really got us excited.
The tipster says that Vivo is going to launch a phone soon that will come with a design that "is the first time in the history of mobile phones." The tipster has also shared two pictures of the smartphone that reveal very little.
A tipster named Ice Universe has shared two photos of the phone on Twitter that show the phone partially. One of the pictures shows a side view of the phone while the other reveals back view. The tipster also adds the phone is being produced under the code-name "The Waterdrop".
According to the photos, the phone reveals a seamless design that lacks any physical buttons. The smooth flow of the phone suggests that the phone will use gesture control and pressure based feature for interactions.
The tipster also notes that the term "The Waterdrop" is inspired by a cosmic detector in a novel called The Three-body Problem by Cixin Liu. The Tipster adds "I can guarantee that you have never seen a similar phone design, this is the first time in the history of mobile phones." He also claims "this phone will subvert people's past perception of smartphones."
While everything about this phone is in thin air right now, Vivo might announce the phone at MWC later this year.

AbstractPragmatic Conceptual Analysis is a proposed methodology for attributing correct application conditions, or 'meanings', to concepts. This methodology involves two stages: first, we seek an empirical understanding of the ways in which usage of a given concept has regularly delivered benefits, and, second, we seek an explication of that concept which is optimally capable of delivering benefits in these ways. Such an explication captures the 'pragmatic meaning' of a given concept. Chapters 1-3 articulate Pragmatic Conceptual Analysis and the notion of pragmatic meaning, and show how these are related to other philosophical methodologies and accounts of concept-meaning.Chapter 4 uses a 'bootstrapping argument' to establish that Pragmatic Conceptual Analysis has two important virtues. The first phase of this argument establishes that Pragmatic Conceptual Analysis has normative authority - it reveals explications that we have practical and epistemic reason to adopt, whether we take these explications to be semantically revisionary or not. This normative authority licenses using Pragmatic Conceptual Analysis, in the second phase, to explicate our shared concept of concept-meaning. This yields the conclusion that we have epistemic reason to adopt the notion of pragmatic meaning as our explication of 'concept-meaning'. Having explicated our concept in this way, we see that Pragmatic Conceptual Analysis also has descriptive authority - it is a semantically conservative tool that reveals concept-meaning, thus explicated.The initial presentation of the bootstrapping argument considers only one sort of work that our concept of concept-meaning does - helping to guide our application of other concepts. But this concept also regularly delivers benefits in a second way - by helping us to give good explanations for the behavior and behavioral success of various concept-users. Chapter 5 uses the normative authority of Pragmatic Conceptual Analysis to justify a particular account of how good explanations work. Chapter 6 draws upon this account to argue that, in order best to explain people's behavioral successes, we need an explication of concept-meaning that is closely related to the one presented in Chapter 4.Chapter 7 considers several objections and hard cases, and argues that Pragmatic Conceptual Analysis weathers these storms in good shape.

Pre-approvals will not always lead to actual loan approval. Lenders complete a complete evaluation before issuing an approval. This formal process does not normally begin until after a property is under agreement as they must look at both the personal information of borrowers and specifics of the real estate being financed. The following are some mortgage approval considerations for Ipswich MA mortgage companies.
Financial Information Analyzed
Lenders will consider your assets, earnings and debts to ascertain whether you can make the loan payments. Positive assets and a stable employment history show sound financial behavior. The amount and kinds of debt you carry are also considered. Lenders estimate not just your current finances. They also try to ascertain the future capability to pay bills.
Willingness to Repay the Mortgage
Mortgagees examine how likely you are to continue paying over the life of the mortgage. This is where credit rating comes into play. Your past conduct is the best predictor of future habits. A negative credit background can jeopardize your prospects of getting a home loan or lead to larger payments.
Real Estate Matters
Appraised Value
Mortgage companies rely on appraisers to provide important data on a home. The most essential part of an appraisal is the valuation, which is given in an exact amount. Lenders give mortgages up to a specific amount of the market price and the appraisal is used to justify that amount.
Mortgage Company Security
After a mortgage is issued, mortgage companies want assurances that their investment will be preserved. They normally require title insurance. For home loans with small down payments, mortgage insurance may also be charged. The amount of both title and mortgage insurance may differ based on the mortgage type and can also impact the amount a buyer will be approved for.
More Mortgage Approval Considerations For Ipswich MA Mortgage Companies
Mortgage companies may take a few weeks to analyze a mortgage application prior to granting an approval, a rejection, or requesting more information. Approval guidelines can vary based on the kind of loan and the circumstances of the buyer or home. The mortgage approval considerations for Ipswich MA mortgage companies above include just a few common items to be aware of. Always speak with a mortgage consultant for guidance on your real estate purchase. Contact John Wells at 978-518-1481 or email@example.com for additional advice on this and other similar topics.
