No one in an official capacity published these roll-out phases in any structured form. I gathered these by listening closely to what Matt Mullenweg stated at the WordCamp US, in his talk and in his Q & A. Some of it was also taken from interviews Matt Mullenweg gave on the 200th episode of Kitchen Sink podcast with Adam Silver and during 300th episode of WordPress Weekly. I also read a few of the bird's eye view discussions on the Github repository and during Slack meetings of the #core-editor channel.
Right now Gutenberg is available as a Feature Plugin. It will receive about 10 more iterations to be 'feature complete'. Matt estimates this will be sometime in April 2018. At the time of this blog post, Gutenberg 2.0 was just released.
"Before it's ready for a bigger audience" Matt lists a few things that need to happen.
Continued conversations around it. There have been 77 Meetups and 20 WordCamp sessions so far. Matt Mullenweg visits Meetup around the country for informal Q & A sessions. Tammie and Matías give talks at WordCamps, as do other developers and designers on the team.
"We need plugin developers to start reimagining what their plugins would look like in a Gutenberg world," he said. We keep a list of plugins we test, and I also keep an eye out for new plugins that extend Gutenberg for advanced users.
As a test, Gutenberg will be enabled for some WordPress.com users. The team will learn a ton from this rollout to thousands of bloggers.
A future point version of WordPress 4.9 will contain a Dashboard prompt for users on self-hosted sites to test Gutenberg by installing the plugin. There will be additional information about the new editor available to them.
There are still a lot of things missing, and it's hard to tell how long it will take to implement the additional pieces. This will be by far the most interesting period of the rollout. That's where the rubber meets the road, so to speak. Personally, I am looking forward to the feedback and discussions around this phase.
We are right now in what I called Phase 3. There might be other aspects already in the works. As I mentioned before, this list is a result of my personal educated guesses.
Phase 4: Merge proposal to make Gutenberg part of Core.
For a feature plugin to become part of WordPress Core, the lead developers will create a merge proposal, outlining how to tackle all the tasks and changes necessary to make Gutenberg the default editor for WordPress. The heavy lifting from a code standpoint is probably already done. Part of this phase is also to make sure the new version doesn't break sites. That's as much as important than the programming of Gutenberg.
This phase will include fallback solutions to make sure that this update doesn't break sites.
Themes and plugin developers can declare their plugins Gutenberg-ready or not. If it's not, the site switches to the old default editor.
Daniel Bachhuber and others are working on a way to distinguish between plugins that are Gutenberg-ready (this is a very early version of the list) and those that are not. The goal is to show the readiness flag in the plugins screen for each site.
If there are plugins installed that are not Gutenberg-ready, the classic editor becomes the default editor again.
The Gutenberg team created a plugin called the "Classic Editor" which is available in the plugin directory today. It can be installed long before Gutenberg is released into the world with 5.0. With this plugin, the "edit" buttons fall back to the current editor and all stays the same. Built into the plugin are some anonymized usage data. In future updates, it will also have some information around Gutenberg updates, so a user or developer might reconsider working with Gutenberg further down the line. The plugin will be around for quite a while, too.
The team might get a better idea about the time frame after Phase 3, when thousands of more people use it to create their blog posts and pages. Once the issues from this phase are collected and resolved, the leads are in a much better position to estimate how long it takes to get ready for a beta release.
In general terms, this release will not be different from other releases. There will be multiple beta releases (normally 4 or more) and release candidate versions (3 or more) before the final release is deployed.
Although, many Themes and Plugin developers started working on Blocks for Gutenberg, teams of larger projects won't be able to start compatibility testing until the first beta version is released. Fast iteration and patches will follow for issues discovered. There might be a few surprises for the Gutenberg development team.
The period between beta releases as well as between release candidates (RC) will probably be much longer than usual to give time for testers to find as many incompatibilities as possible, so they can be handled during beta and RC testing.
Gutenberg is the new WordPress Content Creation experience built by WordPress Core team.
If you are curious how it works, you can take it for a spin here.
Gutenberg's first release as Feature-Plugin happened in June 2017. In the pure open-source manner, the team releases new versions early, often, and learns from the feedback. This week the core-editor team released version 2.0 with about 160+ issues resolved.
After Matías Ventura demonstrated Gutenberg during the Matt Mullenweg's annual State of the Word last month, the buzz around Gutenberg increased considerably.
The discussions are fragmented and all over the Internet–in blog posts, on Twitter, on Github, in Reviews, on Facebook (AWP), at WordCamps, in Meetups, on the Make blog, in the Slack channel.
There is a running list of new posts and discussions available on Gutenberg Times, where I curate community voices around the new editor. It does not aim for completeness, though. If you find pieces missing, feel free to send me an email.
Last month, I posted on how we plan to roll out Gutenberg to WP4Good members sites.
If you provide us with your name and email address we will be able to notify you when we schedule webinars and our Gutenberg Course.

Litigation Trends
Depositions of corporate representatives in Florida
JEREMY COLVIN LITIGATION TRENDS SEP 28, 2017
Because a corporation is a legal fiction that must act through its employees, officers, and directors, eliciting testimony from a corporation can be tricky. Rule 1.310(b)(6) of the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure governs depositions of a "public or private corporation, a partnership or association, or a governmental agency" and is modeled after Rule 30(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. If the corporation is already named as a party to the litigation and has been served in the case, a corporate representative deposition may be taken "by simple notice and without the necessity of serving the official with a witness subpoena." Plantation-Simon Inc. v. Bahloul, 596 So. 2d 1159, 1162 (Fla. 4th DCA 1992).
Under Rule 1.310, the party seeking a deposition must describe in the notice of deposition or subpoena the subject matters for examination with reasonable particularity. Carriage Hills Condo., Inc. v. JBH Roofing & Constructors, Inc., 109 So. 3d 329, 334 (Fla. 4th DCA 2013). While the testimony of the corporate representative is binding upon the corporation, the corporation may designate one or more persons to testify on its behalf. Despite the common misconception, the corporation is not required to designate the witness with the most knowledge of the subject matter. In fact, the witness is not required to have any personal knowledge whatsoever. Thus, the rule affords the corporation with the latitude to designate its corporate representatives to be deposed. However, Rule 1.310 requires the corporation to reasonably prepare its representative to testify on the specified subject matters through documents, past employees, or other sources to enable the witness to "give complete, knowledgeable, and binding answers on behalf of the corporation." Carriage Hills Condo., 109 So. 3d at 334. If the designated corporate representative is unable to answer questions regarding the designated subject matters, the corporation has failed to comply with its Rule 1.310(b)(6) obligation and may be subject to sanctions by the court. Id.
Further, the party seeking the discovery is not necessarily limited to deposing only the corporate representative(s) designated by the corporation. The requesting party may seek to depose a specific corporate representative subject to the trial court's discretion to issue a protective order. Plantation-Simon, 596 So. 2d at 1160. For example, in the relatively recent case of Sybac Solar, GMBH v. 6th Street Solar Energy Park of Gainesville, LLC, 217 So. 3d 1068 (Fla. 2d DCA 2017), the trial court departed from the essential elements of law when it failed to consider whether a corporate representative's interests were too adverse to the corporation's interests such that he or she could not be a proper spokesperson for the corporation. In Sybac Solar, the corporate representative and the corporation were named defendants in a separate defamation case and had taken adverse positions in that defamation case.

Home/ Title defence under way
Title defence under way
VfL Wolfsburg Women win their DFB Cup second-round tie at SV Berghofen.
After two victories to get their FLYERALARM Women's Bundesliga season under way, at home to SC Sand (1-0) and away at MSV Duisburg (6-1), the She-Wolves have also enjoyed a winning start to their DFB Cup campaign.
Head coach Stephan Lerch's charges made their bow in the second row and saw off SV Berghofen 2-0, a Regionalliga team from the Ruhr who put up a real fight and tried to snuff out any and every attack that the five-time Cup-winners put together.
The Waldstadion Aplerbeck was sold out, and the 2,000 fans saw Pia-Sophie Wolter give VfL a 15th-minute lead, but it was not until the dying moments that Swiss international Lara Dickenmann put the tie beyond doubt, following up a rebound to make it 2-0 (89'). The win puts the She-Wolves into the last 16 of the DFB Cup.
Stephan Lerch: "We struggled a bit more than we expected. That was partly due to the fact that we didn't manage to impose our style of play as we would have wanted to, and also because Berghofen defended very solidly. Our passing game wasn't very tidy either and we didn't manage to get a second or a third goal after we'd gone 1-0 up, which would have settled us down. The hosts threw everything into the battle and got a foot in where they had to, so hats off to them."
SV Berghofen: Bauch – Klemann, Sommer, L., Dubbel, Sommer, M., Wrede – Beutler (61' Gödecke), Grothe, Kufner, Dej (78' Plattwich) – Ehrhardt (46' Krapp)
VfL Wolfsburg: Abt – Peter, Goeßling, Wedemeyer, Blässe – Dickenmann, Gunnarsdottir (74' Maritz) – Rolfö (29' Minde), Stolze (59' Harder), Wolter – Jakabfi
Yellow cards Dubbel / -
Goals 0-1 Wolter (15'), 0-2 Dickenmann (89')
Attendance: 2,000 Zuschauer at Waldstadion Aplerbeck


I know, I know. You're probably thinking, "enough with the tomatoes!!" But I can't seem to stop… Bear with me, though, we'll be on to winter squash and root veggies ad nauseum soon enough.
Canal House Cooking Volume No. 4: Farm Markets & Gardens – a delicious set of cookbooks.
While the Canal House tart was delightful, I had a hankering for something a tad more substantial and less appetizer-like today.
I also had a big hunk of gruyère cheese that was not getting any younger and a simple chevre that I had no other plans for. And since the package of puff pastry I'd bought came with two sheets, I thought, "why not try this tart two ways?" So I made one with the goat cheese and one with the gruyère. But that is where the differences end, otherwise, they were identical.
It's important to use only the best tomatoes — you want something really sweet and rich for this since the flavor will be first and foremost.
The resulting tarts were mighty toothsome. I loved the addition of the cheese and the sweet onions. My only regret was that I had not thought to scatter some pinenuts on them (so I've added that in the recipe below).
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. While you're waiting for the pastry to defrost, sautée the onions in a frying pan in olive oil until translucent. Splash with a little balsamic vinegar and continue to cook another 1-2 minutes.
using puff pastry is a fantastic idea! it'll be a nice change from using pizza dough...and much quicker!
I never thought to use puff pastry for a tart. All the tarts I've made were with traditional pie crust layered into a pie plate.

"We greatly value the relationship we've enjoyed with Interval over the years and look forward to working with the company on other projects," commented Rinaldo Fernandez, senior vice president of administration for Karisma Hotels & Resorts.
"With each resort that we affiliate, we strengthen our vision for the future — providing our members outstanding vacation experiences at our resorts in Mexico and at Interval's resorts throughout the world," said Fernandez.
Situated in the tranquil village of Puerto Morelos, Azul Beach has 144 units with views of the turquoise waters of Bahia Petempich or lush vegetation.
Among the on-site amenities are five restaurants with a choice of Latin American, Asian and Italian cuisine, multiple outdoor swimming pools, full-service spa with treatments for adults and kids, fitness center, and a wide selection of day and evening entertainment and activities.
The resort also features an Azulitos Play House with a Fisher-Price® designed play space, the latest educational toys, and a baby equipment and toy loan program.
Older children can participate in activities such as mini-yoga, face painting, and beach treasure hunts.
"We are delighted to expand our partnership with Rinaldo and his team with the addition of Azul Beach," said Marcos Agostini, Interval International senior vice president of resort sales and business development for Latin America.
"This spectacular boutique property offers visitors an unbeatable location midway between Cancun and Playa del Carmen and a host of upscale, family-friendly amenities and services," Agostini said.
Puerto Morelos has a laidback atmosphere where you are invited to slow down and spend time together. Explore the Mayan Temples and the coral reef in Arrecife de Puerto Morelos National Park, or walk the two-and-a-half-mile trail through Dr. Alfredo Barrera Marin Botanical Garden, which is the last patch of conserved forest on this stretch of the Mayan Riviera.
Azul Beach Hotel by Karisma is approximately 25 minutes from downtown Cancun and 35 minutes north of Playa del Carmen.

This is a great marinade for beef. I typically use it for beef tenderloin or london broil flank steak. I'm sure it could be used for sirloin or striploin steaks as well, but I prefer my steaks sans marinade.
In a bowl, whisk together oil, mustard, vinegar, summer savory, water, and salt and pepper to taste.

Trying to determine the structure and command of a Civil War army can be a daunting task. It is easy to confuse which designation is which and to discern which rank commands which entity. Battlefield promotions and deviations between different armies further muddy the waters.In an effort to provide a bit of clarity into such matters, what follows traces the command structure from the colonel leading a regiment all the way to the office of the President as Commander in Chief.

Q: How to prevent unwanted autofills on JSF input tags First of all, I develop a web application and I use JSF 2.2.6.
When user-name and password is saved with user permission in "Login" page by Chrome or Firefox, other empty h:inputText and h:inputSecret in "Admin Panel" page are autofilled with these saved information (name and password in login process).
I use template feature of JSF 2.x to design my pages. I use the same form (id=mainForm) in this template for all my pages. However, ids of input elements of login page are different from ids of input elements in "Admin Panel" page.
After I found the question and answer - Unwanted Autofills , I began to use "autocomplete='off'" for inputs in "Admin Panel". However, nothing changes.
Why does it work properly? How can I handle this problem. I want to display h:inputText and h:inputSecret tags in Admin Panel with no initial record as they actually have.
All feedbacks appreciated!
Login Page;
   <ui:composition template="...">
        <ui:define name="headContent">
            <h:outputStylesheet library="css" name="loginPage.css" />
        </ui:define>
        <ui:define name="content">

                <h:inputText id="nameInput" class="nameInput" value="#{loginFacade.loginName}" />
                <h:inputSecret id="passInput" class="passInput" value="#{loginFacade.loginPass}" />
                <h:commandButton id="..." class="sendInput" image="..."
                            binding="..." action="..." />
                <h:messages class="errorMessage" layout="table" />

        </ui:define>
    </ui:composition>

Admin Panel page;
  ...

            <input jsfc="h:inputText" id="usrDetUsrName" class="usrDetLbl" value="#{adminPanelFacade.tempUsr.USER_NAME}" disabled="#{adminPanelFacade.newRecFlag}" autocomplete="off"/>

            <input jsfc="h:inputSecret" id="usrDetPass" class="usrDetLbl" redisplay="true" value="#{adminPanelFacade.tempUsr.PASSWORD}" autocomplete="off"/>

  ...

A: Google Chrome and IE (v11 onwards) don't respect autocomplete=off in favour of usability of saving passwords for any website.
They change the property autocomplete=off to true.
You would need to develop a custom script that changes the property back to "Off"
You can add a reset function to add the autocomplete "off" back in  the form using below script,
function setAutocomplete()
{
if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('chrome') >= 0)
{
setTimeout(function () {
        document.getElementById('myForm').setAttribute('autocomplete', 'off');
}, 100);
}
}

A: It worked fine for me in bothe Fire fox and chrome Browsers , You can use 2 empty input tags:
<input name="dummyinput" id="dummyinput" type="text" />

<input name="dummypassword" type="password" id="dummypassword" />

before your  name input (h:inputText) , and add another empty input password field say
<input id=dummypassword2" name=dummypassword2" type="password" />  after your password field (h:inputSecret) , Login credentials wont be stored.

Podgórna (do 1945 niem. ) – potok, prawy dopływ Wrzosówki o długości 11,99 km.

Potok płynie w Sudetach Zachodnich. Jego źródło znajduje się w Karkonoszach, w środkowej części Śląskiego Grzbietu, między Małym Szyszakiem a Tępym Szczytem, na wysokości 1244 m n.p.m. Płynie na północ krętą doliną z licznymi zakolami. W swym przebiegu tworzy Wodospad Podgórnej znajdujący się powyżej Przesieki. Przepływa przez Przesiekę i Podgórzyn, gdzie opuszcza Karkonosze i wpływa do Kotliny Jeleniogórskiej. Do Wrzosówki wpada w Cieplicach Śląskich-Zdroju na terenie suchego zbiornika przeciwpowodziowego "Cieplice", w pobliżu wałów przeciwpowodziowych, na granicy z Parkiem Norweskim.

Lewymi dopływami Podgórnej są Czerwień, Choiniec i Zachełmiec, a prawymi Srebrny Potok, Myja, Kacza oraz Sośniak.

Potok płynie po granicie i jego zwietrzelinie, a na obszarze Kotliny Jeleniogórskiej po osadach czwartorzędowych. Górna część zlewni Wrzosówki porośnięta jest górnoreglowymi lasami świerkowymi, niżej lasami dolnoreglowymi. Od Sobieszowa płynie przez obszary zurbanizowane, pola i łąki. Odcinek źródliskowy położony jest na obszarze Karkonoskiego Parku Narodowego.

Heinrich Amersdorffer (* 10. Dezember 1905 in Berlin; † 2. Dezember 1986 in München) war ein deutscher Maler, Grafiker und Kunsterzieher.

Leben
Heinrich Amersdorffer war ein Sohn von Alexander Amersdorffer (1875–1946), dem Nachfolger Ludwig Justis im Amt des Ersten Ständigen Sekretärs der Preußischen Akademie der Künste. Seit 1930 arbeitete er als Kunsterzieher in Berlin.

Amersdorffer war in der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus mehrfach auf den Großen Deutschen Kunstausstellungen der Nationalsozialisten im Münchner Haus der Deutschen Kunst vertreten.

Während des Zweiten Weltkriegs war er nach dem Westfeldzug und dem Einmarsch in Frankreich als "Kriegsmaler" im Auftrag der Wehrmacht tätig, indem er unzerstörte französische Kathedralen inmitten der durch Bomben ruinierten Städte darstellte, um so die " großherzige Schonung von architektonischen Kulturdenkmälern durch die deutschen Truppen" zu propagieren. Bekannt wurde aus diesem Zyklus vor allem ein Gemälde der Kathedrale von Rouen, das 1941 im Haus der Deutschen Kunst ausgestellt wurde. Im Januar 1942 rechtfertigte sich Amersdorffer in der Zeitschrift Die Kunst für Alle: "Es ist mir vergönnt gewesen, mich im Auftrage der Wehrmacht dieser großen Aufgabe zuwenden zu dürfen".

In der Nachkriegszeit erhielt Amersdorffer einen Lehrauftrag an der Berliner Hochschule der Bildenden Künste. Später wurde er zum Ehrenprofessor der Stadt Berlin ernannt.

Der Berliner Antikensammlung schenkte er 1976 seine Sammlung von rund 1.000 antiken griechischen und römischen Münzen. Eine wesentliche Auflage der Schenkung war, dass die Sammlung für immer ein Bestandteil der Antikensammlung bleiben soll und damit kein Bestandteil des Berliner Münzkabinetts werden könne.

Do you want to enjoy the Australian Daylight Savings Time entirely?
So join us on this awesome Great Ocean Road Sunset tour!
Another fantastic alternative to avoid the large crowds of the early afternoon at the 12 Apostles.
Well planned tour: we avoid the crowds! The most important: we spend time at the attractions! No rush!
First of all, bear in mind that you are going to see one of the most spectacular natural landscapes on the planet!
Your day starts later, as you'll be enjoying the attractions until sunset. Pickup at St Paul's Cathedral at 11am.
The greatest thing about this tour is it goes in the afternoon, later than the typical Great Ocean Road Tours. As result, you'll arrive at the attractions after all the crowds and finish your day at the spectacular 12 Apostles during sunset.
The first stop will be on an Australian surfing temple: Bells Beach. Enjoy the outstanding views of Bells from the top of the cliffs, take amazing pictures from the lookouts and immerse yourself at the stories of the legendary surfers that have made this place so iconic.
Next stop will be at the charming Lorne, your guide will take you to a place with panoramic views of Lorne Beach, where you'll enjoy surfing beginners having lessons.
Following this amazing Great Ocean Road coastline, you'll get to Kenneth River where hopefully you will encounter some cute koalas and colorful parrots and funny cockatoos, make sure you have your camera handy!
On your way to the Shipwreck Coast, you will get to drive through Great Otway National Park Rainforest to witness some of Australia's most amazing rainforest scenery.
The arrival at the Port Campbell National Park will be in great style and first attraction will be Gibson Steps. Feel amazed by the gigantic limestone cliff while you go down the steps to walk and take great pictures of this idyllic beach.
Next will be the incredible Razorback and Loch Ard Gorge, at the same stop. The top sculptures and the colors of the Razorback are magic and you will feel dwarfed by the cliffs of the Loch Ard Gorge, the most famous shipwreck story of this coast.
A visit to the beautiful small town of Port Campbell is a must do, while you have the opportunity to enjoy a dinner (own expenses) and prepare yourself for the grand finale of the day: the sunset at the internationally recognized 12 Apostles!
During the whole tour your friendly guide will give interesting insights about the places you visit, share the local history, and some fun facts, in a friendly and informal atmosphere.
We create remarkable moments. We definitely do!


The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently released an updated version of the General Best Practice Guidelines for Immunization. The 194-page document outlines the specific recommendations related to vaccine administration including timing and spacing of vaccines, contraindications and precautions, preventing and managing adverse reactions, vaccine administration, storage and handling of immunobiologics, altered immunocompetence, special situations, vaccination records, vaccination programs, and vaccine information sources. This document is a must-have reference for anyone who gives immunizations.
As part of its mandate, the World Health Organization (WHO) periodically issues position papers related to health policy matters as a means of guidance for its member states. The documents are prepared following systematic (GRADE) assessment of the latest scientific information on the subject and are reviewed by WHO staff and external experts. These documents provide useful information related to the most updated global information about the disease and any vaccines available as well as WHO recommendations for vaccine use. It is important to realize that the WHO recommendations are described in such a way as to be pertinent for both resource-rich and resource-poor settings.


Industrial deafness is a major issue...start now to protect your ears.
Hearing is an important part of our lives, yet many of us perform daily tasks or work in occupations that put our hearing at risk. In order to prevent noise-induced hearing loss, it's important to obtain proper ear protection and learn how to use it correctly. There are many things you can do year-round to protect against hearing loss and maintain your hearing health. This is especially important if you're regularly exposed to excessive noise through your occupation (such as working in manufacturing, transportation, or emergency response) or your hobbies (like going to concerts, motorcycling, or hunting).
While the damage from these noise sources is irreversible, one of the easiest ways to avoid hearing loss is to wear hearing protection when exposed to loud noises. But each type of hearing protection works differently. While the overall goal is to reduce volume, for hearing protection to be effective, it also has to handle different types of sounds or frequencies in a way that provides adequate protection while letting you hear whatever you need to hear clearly and block the other noises.
QWS WELDING SUPPLY SOLUTIONS offers a broad range of EAR PROTECTION readily available, we have DISPOSABLE EARPLUGS, REUSABLE EARPLUGS, EARMUFFS, CORDED & UNCORDED EARPLUGS, we also offer EARPLUGS REFILLS and EARPLUGS DISPENSERS and all products are from the industry's most reliable brands 3M, BILSOM, HOWARD LEIGHT, LASER-LITE, MOLDEX, PELTOR, PRO-CHOICE, UNISAFE and many more.
Let QWS help you choosing the appropriate EAR PROTECTION for you and your crew, QWS has help available, Supporting all towns and cities throughout Australia especially Brisbane, Gold Coast, Coffs Harbour, Port Macquarie, Newcastle, Sydney, Wollongong, Albury, Melbourne, Adelaide and Darwin just to name a few.

ORKA 1997
A PROJECTED VIDEO ENVIRONMENT BY STEINA
STEINA: "My background is in music. For me, it is the sound that leads me into the image. Every image has its own sound and in it I attempt to capture something flowing and living. I apply the same principle to art as to playing the violin: with the same attitude of continuous practice, the same concept of composition.
"Since my art schooling was in music, I do not think of images as stills, but always as motion. My video images primarily hinge upon an undefined sense of time with no earth gravity. It is like a duty to show what cannot be seen except with the eye of media: water flowing uphill or sideways, upside down rolling seas or a weather beaten drop of a glacier melt. "The idea is that perhaps the audience could feel a part of this creative trance, living for a moment in a mental world where they have never been."
— Steina
In ORKA, a three-channel video environment, the three disk players provide one video and two audio sources to three projectors and six speakers. A video synchronizer aligns the three channels for synchronous playback. At the end of each fifteen-minute cycle, the program automatically returns and re-synchronizes for a repeat performance.
The images in Orka — which means "life force" — were shot by Steina in the wilds of her native Iceland in 1996. A "tracer" device performs recording of the traces of the micro-movements of nature over time, such as the paths of birds and waves.

Growing up I had many different passions, but one I've been thinking about lately are POGs. If you are a child of the 90s than you know what I am talking about (if not, check out the very 90s commercial below). In elementary school, everyone was all about POGs. They were played during recess, before and after school, and everywhere else you could find a spot. We would carry around our PVC looking tubes full of them, always with the slammer on the top. I also had binders full of them. I have many memories of competing against others to win their POGs or slammers. There were quite a number of fights that broke out between students who thought someone was cheating. It actually got so bad that they banned them from my school. As I grew up I stored my POGs in our crawl space below our house because I was proud of them and wanted to save them; however, a flood in the crawl space took them one day, and that was a really sad day for me.
Growing up I didn't know what I wanted to do and as mentioned in a previous post, I resisted going into education for quite a while. Trying to find my own path I took a number of different classes in college to see if I could find something that just clicked, but it seemed like it never did. I finally started looking into history education and started pursuing it. But after a talk with a district HR individual, I realized that there may be more openings for a business teacher than a history teacher. With that in mind, I went all in. I lost way more credits than I want to think about switching majors, but knew that business was the right decision for me.
Mainly because it all started young for me. I remember in 1st grade with Ms. Seamons that I would bring paper and pencils from my house and sell them to fellow students (can you believe there was a market for that). It was the dot matrix paper that you had to pull off the perforations on the sides. In 5th grade our teacher did "business" where we would run businesses one day a week (did we learn anything that year?) and I ran a root beer float store, the bank, and a game center. I remember that my dad had mentioned that I would be a great entrepreneur. Many years later that would be partly prophetic as I would become a business teacher that taught entrepreneurship.
So why all this talk about passions? In a book I read this year, Lead Like a Pirate, the two authors Shelley Burgess and Beth Houf share their passions when it comes to leadership in education.
We are relentless about developing, maintaining, and sustaining positive cultures within our organizations.
We are passionate about instilling the belief that every educator has the power and the ability to help students —even the students whom others may have written off —accomplish amazing things!
We are passionate about developing a sense of collective efficacy.
We are passionate about the belief that it isn't programs that teach kids —it's teachers.
We are passionate about collaboration.
We are passionate about using the influence we have as leaders to inspire other leaders, adult learners, and teachers to do incredible work.
When I read this section from the book I started thinking about what I am passionate about. When I talk to people about my job I tell them that I feel so fortunate because I wake up excited to my job every single day. I have a job that is fulfilling and I feel makes a difference. If this is true for me, why is that the case? What about my job makes it so fulfilling and satisfying? What is it that makes me excited to wake up every day and go to work?
One thing that I tell people is that I enjoy solving problems (not the mathematical problems type though.) As a teacher, I more or less had control of my day. I would plan out my lessons (even if they didn't always go as planned) and go on the journey with my classes. As an administrator though, there is a lot less control of the day. Many days I have a long list of to-dos on my desk but one issue after another walks through my door that needs my immediate attention. I have found though, that I really enjoy those days as they require you to think fast and solve problems rapidly.
I have experienced this quote firsthand. As I have found my passion for education and educational leadership I have felt that energy. When I have been able to focus on what I am passionate about the power has come with it.
So what specifically are my passions as an educator?
I am passionate about being a champion for my students, teachers, and staff.
I am passionate about expecting excellence.
I am passionate about always carrying the banner for the school and education.
I am passionate about being a merchant for hope.
I have these written on my board in my office, and just today a staff member commented, why are you relentless about your passions, but not about your goals. He asked because right below them I said that they were things I am passionate about. It was a great question and took me a second to formulate a response. Ultimately, it's because my passions are what bring me back to work every single day. They are what I enjoy about my job. While my goals help me to become better.
I am passionate about being the champion for the underdog. Whether it is a student or staff member, I want to see them succeed. It is very rewarding and gratifying to see the successes, both small and big. Part of being that champion is expecting excellence from them. I find it a fine line to tread to make sure I am asking and getting enough from them, without putting them in a place where they cannot succeed.
I love talking about Herriman High and education. Education doesn't always get the best publicity or comments (nor Herriman High for that matter), but being someone in the trenches day in and day out, I can tell you that we are doing some amazing things here. Things that anyone would make anyone proud. We moved our family into our boundaries and I did it without any hesitation. Knowing the school inside and out, I am completely confident and comfortable sending my kids to Herriman High School.
When there is hope, there is effort. No matter what has brought a student into my office, I want them leaving with the feeling that there is hope. That doesn't mean there aren't consequences for their choices, because there are. But there is always hope. There will be a tomorrow and they can get better.

IEC Releases Second Edition of IEC 60384-14-2:2016, Fixed Capacitor Standard
EMI: Why Digital Devices Radiate
Standards and RegulationsStandards Updates
IEC 62368-3:2017 Pre-Release Version Available for Safety of Electronic Equipment in the field of AV, Information and Communication Technology Equipment
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has released IEC 62368-3:2017 PRV and is now available on the IEC webstore. This pre-release version of the standard pertains to safety aspects for DC power transfer through communication cables and ports of audio/video, information and communication technology equipment.
Description: "IEC 62368-3:2017 applies to equipment intended to supply and receive operating power through communication cables or ports. It covers particular requirements for circuits that are designed to transfer DC power from a power sourcing equipment (PSE) to a powered device (PD). The power transfer uses voltages at ES1 or ES2 or in very specific cases voltage levels at ES3. Any cable provided with a connector defined by an industry standard that permits DC power transfer between equipment is considered a communication cable even if communication does not take place. For example, a USB cable can be used just to recharge a portable device battery. This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 62368-1:2014. It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
The subclauses of IEC 62368-1 apply as far as reasonable. Where safety aspects are similar to those of IEC 62368-1, the relevant clause or subclause of IEC 62368-1 is given for reference in a note in the relevant subclause. Where a requirement in IEC 62368-3 refers to a requirement or criterion of IEC 62368-1, a specific reference to IEC 62368-1 is made. This group safety publication is primarily intended to be used as a product safety standard for the products mentioned in the scope, but shall also be used by technical committees in the preparation of standards for products similar to those mentioned in the scope of this standard, in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and lSO/lEC Guide 51."

Q: Need to build list of group members I have a server with its own local Groups. These groups hold AD users. I use them to apply permissions for the user in a web app. I need to generate a list of all the users in the group.
This is the script I'm trying to use:
dsquery group -samid "MyGroup" | dsget group "MyGroup" -members >c:\List.txt

I've tried many generations of this code and all I get are errors. At least this one creates a text file before it errors (with nothing in it).
So what am I doing wrong (I confess I'm new to this command line tool).
EDIT: the error I'm getting is "dsget failed:Value for 'Target object for this command' has incorrect format."
Thanks in advance.

A: I too am a newbie.
But I beleive you want is:
dsquery group -name "MyGroup" | dsget group -members > c:\List.txt

Where you replace "MyGroup" with the name of the group you are looking for. If looking for multiple groups which begin the same way, surround MyGroup with asterisks instead of quotation marks.

It's sad that so many girls get into these relationships and have no idea what they're in for. Even in the relationship, they might not even know that they're being abused. So teen dating education is definitely important. Teen girls should know how to realize the signs of abuse so they don't get trapped.

JIA TOLENTINO
Last year, on Christmas Day, I was doing a puzzle with my parents and brother in Galveston, Texas, when I pulled out my phone to show them something from an old piece I'd written at The Hairpin and saw, on the first page of the Google search, that the Red Scare subreddit ("of all places") had dug up an old news story about a devastatingly serious criminal case that my parents were at the center of in the last half of the last decade. I left the house without explaining myself, took a long walk, and by the time I came back I had decided, again, that there was nothing to be gained by seeking out what people I don't know were saying about me on the internet: it was damaging and compulsive behavior if those things were wonderful—I had searched my name on Twitter for a couple weeks when my book came out and then stopped, understanding that I had waded into narcissistic quicksand—and it was certainly damaging and compulsive behavior in this instance, too.
But my mom, being a proud and loving mother who likes to send stories about me to her friends, has searched my name online regularly for years, despite my protests. She recently alerted me to the fact that details about their case had been added to my Wikipedia page. A post was circulating on Tumblr about it, and on Twitter—this was the week that quarantine boredom escalated to the point that on Monday people were trying to "get" Mitski and Arca for their parents being (respectively) CIA and wealthy, and by Friday everyone was rejoicing in what passed for an Alison Roman scandal—people were posting about how my parents were human traffickers. The vibe was that this was some sort of wild, ironic gotcha. Here I was, a writer who had made a whole thing of being concerned with public morality, who had managed to project some aura of decency and transparency, and my parents were—as far as anyone who'd come across this juicy nugget was concerned—international criminals who had built their lives off exploiting other people, off their suffering and pain.
Over the following week it was made clear to me that more and more people were discussing this situation as a reputational time bomb that was going to be especially exciting to see go off. I began getting tagged in tweet threads about the matter. When a kind friend deleted the line from my Wikipedia page, out of concern for my family, it was added again nearly immediately. More people tagged me into conversations about my hypocrisy. I'm aware that writing this will bring my parents' lives to the attention of many more people than would have otherwise cared to gossip about the matter, but, given the weight of the circumstances, I'd rather go ahead and explain.
Around the time I was born, my grandmother founded an agency placing nurses from the Philippines in U.S. hospitals that were experiencing a skilled labor shortage. (This is an extremely common migration pattern for Filipinos—I recommend Jason DeParle's "A Good Provider Is One Who Leaves," on the subject!—with about eleven percent of the Philippines' total population working overseas.) Soon after, she and a business partner began placing Filipino teachers in U.S. schools, too. When my family moved down to Houston from Toronto in 1993, my dad joined the company, which continued to bring nurses and teachers over through a lawful process, typical of the many recruitment agencies of this kind. Specifically, on the side of the teacher program, the company sponsored school district personnel to travel to the Philippines and meet with qualified teachers who they might be interested in hiring; the school districts identified the workers they wished to hire, and the company began the lengthy process of bringing them to the States with H1B visas—filing a petition, waiting for approval and issuance. In 2003, ten years after my dad began working for the company, a school district in Texas declined to hire a batch of teachers to whom they had previously extended job offers. Crucially, the company was not informed of the change of plans until after the teachers had already traveled to the States. My dad worked to get those teachers re-hired in other districts, and placed all but four of them successfully. ICE, then a brand-new agency with a directive to protect America from illegal immigration, investigated the displaced teachers, whose visa petitions bore the name of the school district that had extended the job offers before declining, rather than the school districts where they eventually worked.
In 2004, to their horror, my parents were charged with a battery of things that, if they were found guilty, would add up to over a hundred years in prison for each of them: the counts included alien smuggling, harboring and transporting aliens, conspiracy to defraud the government, money laundering, and more. The company's open, earnest, lawful work helping fellow Filipinos move to America for good jobs in teaching had been swiftly reframed as hideous criminal activity. (Seeing people on the internet gleefully call my parents "human traffickers" has been a reminder of the vast, brutal gap between those initial charges and the reality they purported to describe—a gap in which my parents have to live every day.) My parents shielded me as best they could: I got an inkling that they were being surveilled when I started hearing clicks on the house phone line while I was talking to my friends. My dad was arrested that fall, and detained in solitary confinement. He was able to call me on my sixteenth birthday, which was the first I'd heard from him in months. I grasped that the situation I thought couldn't be happening was actually happening. I remember holding the phone at the Italian restaurant my mom had taken me to, and starting to cry.
The years that followed—and I say this fearing that it will hurt my parents, but not knowing any simpler way to put it—essentially destroyed them. My mom and dad were Filipino-born Canadian citizens; this was Texas in the years following the Patriot Act, and basic human and constitutional rights did not seem to be granted to brown non-Americans accused of such serious crimes. (It's been interesting, in observing the gossip about this, to see the way many white people implicitly see criminality as a status that is only achieved through egregious, malicious actions; many black and brown people understand that this is not at all the case.) Everything my parents had was permanently seized through forfeiture; my dad was tortured, if you believe solitary confinement is torture, which it is. I spent much of college wondering if I would have to quit school any second to raise my little brother. My parents borrowed money from friends and went deep into debt to hire lawyers to defend them at a trial that finally began in 2007. The charges hinged on the school district's allegation that my dad had known that the teachers' jobs were rescinded before helping them travel to the States—an allegation that spared the district a significant amount of civil and financial liability, and framed my dad as an alien smuggler. It was also untrue: no actual documentary evidence was produced to support it. Two months later, after nearly two hundred witnesses were called against the company, the judge declared a mistrial.
At that point, the whole process began again. My parents, drained of resources, got court-appointed advocates who advised my dad to take a plea deal. My mom didn't want him to; she wanted to go to trial again and clear their name. But they were suffering. My brother was in middle school, and my parents were driving thirteen hours each way to and from El Paso, where their court case took place, almost every week. After a year, my dad made the decision to take the deal. The charges against my mom—who had only worked in local nurse recruitment, not teacher recruitment—were dismissed, and my dad pled guilty to a charge of conspiracy to defraud the United States. Specifically, he admitted to making a false statement to a government official, meaning that the paperwork for the displaced teachers' visas ended up being inaccurate. There was an irony to this: my dad had exposed himself legally by trying to find a solution to the displaced teachers' plight, working to get them re-hired in different districts. If he had left the teachers to figure out their awful situation on their own, his legal position would have been stronger. But he would never have done that. This years-long ordeal culminated with my dad getting a few months' probation for his plea.
This is a story about my parents, not about me. I wasn't physically present for almost any of this; I've reconstructed the story not just through talking to my parents but through reviewing documents in consultation with immigration lawyers. I also haven't suffered in any way worth speaking about: in fact I think that a lot of my calmness, my capability, my sense of wild individual good fortune, comes from witnessing their ordeal. (I also was never, as some have speculated, a beneficiary of dirty millions: almost my entire time in school was made possible by full scholarships, and although I grew up happy and cared for, never lacking for opportunity, the first year of my sentient life that I didn't worry about money on a near-daily basis was 2014.) But it's been my desire for a long time to understand the genesis of their prosecution, the resources spent by the state on their case. I've wanted to report the story out in its proper political context for a long time. I asked my parents if I could write about their story in my book: originally, the reality TV essay was going to be about the disjunction between my central-casting teen blitheness and what was happening in the background—on the plane to Puerto Rico, I drafted a pathetic handwritten letter begging for a pardon from the Presidential administration that had created the legal atmosphere that had facilitated all of this in the first place. My dad, surely with deep reservations, granted me permission. But my mom felt that, in the current political environment, there could be tangible repercussions for resurfacing this part of their history.
Of course, I realized she was right and respected her wishes: I did not write about them, or bring up this history in interviews. Instead I became intensely aware of the possibility that my attempts to find some stability in my life, for my own sake and ultimately for theirs, would end up re-traumatizing them, resurfacing all this sublimated shame. This appears to have already happened. But I'm not ashamed, anyway: only sad, really sad, to see their case turn into some simulacrum of juicy gossip among internet strangers who appear to be as baffled or bemused or put off by my recent successes as I myself have been. I don't have the emotional capacity to be angry about it; I mostly wish I weren't so far away from my family right now. I wish that I could write long paragraphs here about my parents as the people close to them know them, about the generosity and good faith and loyalty and love and courage and humility they have always modeled, without knowing that this would be interpreted as deflection.
Still, this moment is an intense one for me. My life—my independence, the opportunities I found and hung onto—was one of the only things in my parents' universe that the case hadn't degraded. My sense of personal freedom is one of the few things they've worked for that's gone completely right. I wanted them to see that life, that freedom, untouched, for as long as they could. And they did. Now—as always, because they're my parents—they are still more worried about me than about themselves. I've never really been able to communicate, no matter how many ways I tell them, how grateful I am for the bone-deep familiarity with injustice that I acquired through watching what happened to them. Their case solidified my ethical commitments; it clarified my understanding of power, of truth and complication. I learned from their life trajectory, as I had to. And I hope, one day, under a different administration, that I get the chance to report it all out.
[Edited on 5/24/20 to add, though I'm not sure that those who have been tweeting the horrific claims of usury and threats and abuse in the first federal indictment are interested in actually understanding the court case: I have had fifteen years to reckon with the possibility that the Bush-era security apparatus was righteous and truthful and that my parents were inhumane and deceptive. I understand the argument that any business involving immigration is inherently unethical: this is part of why I want to report out what their company was actually like, interview the nurses and teachers they worked with. For now, I'll just say what I wasn't expecting might need articulation: I would never have written this if I believed—I would have cut my parents off years ago if any actual scrutiny of the full casework suggested—that these allegations, which disappeared from the case after they could not be upheld in court, were true.]
