More than happy to provide it. You can do your due diligence at
http://www.ics.uci.edu/~ejw/authoring/. It contains the mail archives,
reference documents, meeting minutes, and so forth.

Initial Properties - Yes, you can do a PROPPATCH before doing a PUT. In
fact, the next version of the specification will even include a resource
type for you to use. It is a generalization of the iscollection property. As
for putting a specific reference, my own feeling is that the note is
unnecessary. However I am not deeply wed to that position.

PUTs and Proplocs - Proploc has been removed from the spec.

Deleting Collections - Please refer to the mailing list archives and the
tree draft available at

Named Collection Links - Please refer to the mailing list archives for the
extended, torturous, endless, painful, debate on this subject. However a
quick summary is that many, if not most, file system can not readily support
named links. However the general WebDAV design philosophy is that there are
only two features, required and non-existent. So as this feature would have
to be made optional because many systems just can not support it, it was
decided to drop it. In fact external members were only adopted once the type
of recursive operations you see in the tree draft were made to NOT apply to
them. That way an OS which does not support any form of linking can record
external members as nothing more than an unnamed property.

Types for properties - Again, please refer to the mailing list where this
topic has been addressed. The solution is that all DAV properties are XML
documents. The XML and RDF efforts are directly dealing with the issue of
typing. Further information on those efforts are available at

RDF - As previously mentioned, this topic has been address on this list, at
length and resolved with the help of the numerous DAV working group members
who are also members of the RDF working group. It has been established that
DAV is 100% plug and play compatible with RDF.

External References - The same reason used to rejected named collection
links was also used to reject external references. Actually external
references also fell afoul of another DAV design rule "DAV is done when
there is nothing left to cut." However, as with named collection links, both
features can be added on at a later date such that systems that wish to
support them can interoperate with those that do not.

Member Properties - The group has dealt with this problem under the heading
of hierarchical properties. After much debate it was decided to not support
them because many systems would be unable to handle them. In fact until
fairly recently the specification even included an entire section explaining
the logic of the decision. It is expected that the first extension to DAV,
down the road, will be hierarchical properties. I know it is something my
own company is keenly interested in.

> the semantics (of following the link) up to the end-user or

> If .../a/b/ is a collection, and c is the name of an

> GET on .../a/b/c should return.  Either it could return a

> .../foo itself.  I'd go for leaving it up to the server,

> provide a hint.
> Naturally DELREF could use either Collection-Member-Name or
> Collection-Member.  Also the ResInfo element should now
> include the name (in fact, for internal resources, perhaps
> this should be provided instead of the Href).
> 5) Types for Properties
> It would be useful to be able to associate some sort of type
> with a property.  I'm not saying that WebDav need provide
> any interpretation of the property type, but I do think it
> would be useful for a property schema to have an optional
> type associated with each property.
> 6) Relationship to RDF
> There seem to be many similarities between RDF and WebDav.
> Is someone responsible for making sure that they don't have
> unnecessary incompatibilities or different approaches to the
> same issue?
> 7) Binding of External References
> External references (especially if they're named) correspond
> to what directory systems refer to as "soft links".  If
> collections are going to reasonably reflect existing
> directory systems, it is worth considering "hard links" as
> well, where the underlying system can accomodate it.  An
> optional Binding header can also be used to support this.
> Support for hard links impacts the ResInfo element -- it
> probably should only provide the name, and some token
> indicating a hard link, rather than an Href.
> By the way, "partial links" (where the initial part of the
> URI is treated as hard, and the trailing part of the name is
> soft) are also useful, particularly in version management
> systems (where the description of which version to get is
> soft, while the name of the versioned object itself is
> hard-linked).
> Finally, there is the matter of "indirect links", akin to
> COM's monikers.  The resource to which an external member
> refers (by a hard, soft, or partial link) may contain a
> value which is (or can be interpreted to resolve to) yet
> another URI (which could again be either redirected or
> retrieved directly).
> At this late date, I'd like to just raise this issue, but
> not argue strongly for it.  Unless there's other support,
> this could easily be left for a subsequent revision.
> 8) Member properties
> Some directory systems support properties on the links to
> external resources, independent from the properties on the
> resources themselves.  For instance, access privileges are
> often associated with the link, meaning that the access
> rights one has to a resource may depend on the path used to
> name it.  Again, I'd just like to raise this issue, but not
> necessarily argue for it.

This is one of those "you have to be be kidding me" stories, but a Meridian man is looking for his wheelchair after it was stolen from the BSU football game on Friday.

No, unfortunately, that's not a joke.

Nathan Ogden was attending the Boise State University Football game Friday night and had been carried to his seat at Albertsons Stadium.

Well this is the first... My wheelchair was stolen at a BSU football game tonight. We were seated in the stands and Heather piggy-backed me up the stairs at halftime to get back into my chair and it was gone! Please share this and help me find my chair and get my independence back.👍🏻♿ **There's a picture of the wheelchair in the comments below. #chairthehope #GoodGoesRound

Posted by Nathan Ogden on Friday, September 22, 2017

While Boise Police are investigated, Nathan took to social media with his video above and pictures of his chair.  It's a Quickie brand with very unique custom wheels.  It was last seen at the top of Section 8 inside the stadium before kickoff.

Nathan calls it his "legs" and says the impact of the loss are far more than just getting from one destination to another.  it really is his ability to do the key elements of daily life.

Our news partner, KTVB Newschannel 7 met up with him for more.

If you know anything about the theft or see the wheelchair, you are asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 208-343-COPS (208-343-2677).

About Us

I am an Underwater Light Photographer!

In 2007, something wonderful happened. An experiment with Underwater Light Photography emerged as a unique expression of natural beauty that seemed to transmit heart opening, healing energy. These light-energy photographs, taken from 15ft underwater at Barton Springs in Austin Texas started an amazing journey of creative, exploration and inner listening. The Underwater-Light Art continues to take on a life of its own, and I hope you will enjoy some as Apparel, Pillows, Dresses, T-Shirts, Beach Towels and more.

Inspired by the beauty and power of these Underwater-Light images, and heeding their call “to be seen”, I created the "Ask the Light Miracle Cards" with a mission to Spread the Light by creating fine quality inspirational art products for an awakening world. I have personally handed out these Underwater-Light images as gifts to nearly 1,000 people in 5 countries, spanning 4 Continents, very often generating amazing, beautiful and healing responses!

In 2014, with an intensifying dedication to share the beauty and healing power of this emerging Art form, my wife, Brenda and I created WaterLight Healing; a project of service and community outreach, with a mission to enhance well-being and promote accelerated healing in care and healthcare environments through the power of Underwater-Light Art. WaterLight Healing, through crowd sourcing, funded the installation of twenty large Underwater-Light canvas prints, permanently transforming Austin’s largest Women’s Shelter!

We created livinglightdesigns.com – as a platform to share Light with the world, and as a source from which to fund further outreach programs in the future. Enjoy the nice selection of products and feel free to contact us with any questions or ideas.

Michael Korda and Dr. Henry and Nancy Kissinger at the Lawrence of Arabia Talk for the NYHS @ The Society for Ethical Culture NYC

April 5, 2011

Out of Focus it was a Hit or Missinger there Goes Dr. Kissinger

For Michael Korda the editor emeritus of Simon & Schuster’s new book “The Life and Legend of Lawrence of Arabia” from Harper  on T.E Lawrence the author was joined by the 56th Secretary of State of the United States of America Dr. Henry Kissinger with venerable  New Yorker magazine writer Adam Gopnik moderating at the society of ethical culture auditorium on Central Park West at a New York Historical Society event (with The latter organization returning to their own building on CPW when construction is finished  there in November of 2011).

"The Life and Legend of Lawrence of Arabia" Author, Michael Korda

Dr.Kissinger again

There was an introduction by the New York historical Society Chairwoman and then Korda came out solo and proceeded to read from the volume. When he finished Dr. Kissinger and Adam Gopnik charged onto the stage as the flushed faced last of the romantics continued to speak.  In one of the most interesting barbs of the hour-long program Gopnik  remarked (to paraphrase) that he felt like  an orchestra conductor working with two tympani.

Nancy Kissinger Arriving at her Seat

Though the talk was mainly about Lawrence (Kissinger grimaced during Korda’s mention of Lawrence’s violation at the hands of the Turks and was bemused during Gopnik’s aside about British Public Schools) Gopnik did get his gumption up and ask Dr. Kissinger about the current situation in Libya.  The good Doctor basically retorted that the events occurring in Libya are really peripheral and that the main theater of concern was in Saudi Arabia and what would happen in the Gulf and further that our mission there was basically humanitarian and not about regime change.

Nancy Kissinger Deux

Korda provided yet another fascinating aside in that he related that his uncle the famed film-maker Alexander Korda actually knew Lawrence and had purchased the film rights to his story in 1935 (the year before Lawrence’s death in a motorcycle accident).  Then he continued that the film did not get made at the time mostly because the British were unnerved by the possible Arab reaction to a movie showing a Westerner at the head of Arabian army.  Thereafter  the rights were purchased from his uncle by Sam Spiegel and this went onto to become David Lean’s Lawrence of Arabia starring Peter o’Toole.

Pink Eye Relief

It is common to see signs of pink eye, officially known as conjunctivitis, before experiencing discomfort.  An exam from one of our West Des Moines, IA doctors of optometry can quickly provide a diagnosis.  Conjunctivitis treatment at our Lock Family Eye Care practice focuses on reducing discomfort and preventing the spread of contagious cases.

What is Conjunctivitis?

Conjunctivitis is a swelling or inflammation of the conjunctiva, the transparent tissue that lines the inner eyelid.  This tissue covers the white part of each eye. This disorder is common among youngsters.  Some cases are highly contagious.  This makes it particularly important to take steps to prevent catching conjunctivitis. Our optometrists note that this disorder could have an allergic, viral, or bacterial cause.  These are the most common causes:

  • Old makeup or contaminated lotions
  • Infections from bacteria
  • Allergic reactions to substances such as pollen and smoke
  • Some sexually transmitted diseases
  • The common cold and other viruses
  • A reaction to an object that touches the eye, such as a contact lens

The symptom most often associated with conjunctivitis is the pink look of an affected eye.  Other typical signs include:

  • A discharging eye
  • Eyes that itch or burn
  • Oversensitivity to light
  • A gritty feeling
  • Excessive tear production
  • Swollen eyelids

Treatment Options for Pink Eye

When a case of pink eye appears likely to be catching, our practice’s objective is preventing its spread in addition to achieving symptom relief for the patient.  Successful treatment to reduce inflammation and discomfort requires professional services in addition to patient efforts.  Professional care is necessary to make sure that what begins as a fairly minor medical issue does not turn into a major health problem.  The type of conjunctivitis diagnosed dictates the appropriate course of treatment:

  • For all types, the patient should avoid touching the eyes.
  • When an allergy is a culprit, the patient must avoid exposure to the offending substance.  Artificial tears, cool compresses, antihistamines, and NSAIDs typically bring relief.
  • Antibiotic drops or ointments are appropriate for bacterial infections.
  • A case caused by a virus disappears after a few weeks.  Cool compresses and artificial tears bring some relief.
  • Saline flushing, sometimes combined with topical steroids, is appropriate for outbreaks caused by chemical irritants.

Schedule an Exam with Lock Family Eyecare in West Des Moines, IA

Avoid unnecessary suffering from conjunctivitis.  Our West Des Moines, IA doctors of optometry, Dr. Michael Lock and Dr. Jenessa Lock, have provided treatment to area residents since 2006.  Our Lock Family Eye Care practice offers comprehensive vision care for adults and children.  Be sure to call us today at 515-267-1312 to schedule an exam.  Which steps are you taking to avoid pink eye?

Hemimorphite Double Terminated Pendant (Large)

Hemimorphite Double Terminated Pendant (Large)

  • $52.00

Hemimorphite Double Terminated Pendant (Large)

Comes with a complimentary display chain

Hemimorphite this stone gently relives angst. If you invariably pitch your expectations and goals too high to achieve, it helps in setting and attaining realistic goals without being emotionally attached to the result. Hemimorphite is linked to self expression and communication.

Linked primarily to the throat chakra, but also opens the inner flute to the heart and crown increasing the connection between all three. Therefore it stimulates an openness, and willingness to share who we really are.

It promotes peace and understanding in the self, because of the openness it generates within. So it encourages artistic expression, friendliness, playfulness and in turn promotes friendships, generosity, and kindness to others. At the other end of its effect it is anti anger, anti jealousy, and negates controlling behaviour.

well somehow the abundance of beggars have disapeared..almost ovenight..from waterloo..
how do they perform such an act..
where do they all go...?

it certainly woorked but how did they do it

perhaps they can work it on alll the peoplee that insist on drinking outside pubs when they dont even smoke or people that dont say excuse me when they want to get off a bus when you are sat next to you..window side!

was derren brown involved???
Saturday 31 January 2009 2.35pm
I believe the Southwark and Lambeth rough sleepers team have been doing work in Waterloo.
Sunday 1 February 2009 9.23am
Perhaps they've put a free bar and restaurant, plasma tv and Japanese style sleeping arrangements inside St Johns Church?
Sunday 1 February 2009 10.06am
Could it not be to do with the terrible events at Partnership House last week...
Sunday 1 February 2009 11.12am
Actualy, that's probably right, and makes more sense, as the police will have been speaking to a lot of rough sleepers, which will have probably spooked people.
Sunday 1 February 2009 11.22am
That, and the dispersal zone Lambeth have implemented.
(see here)
Sunday 1 February 2009 11.26am
People are still drinking outside the church on Webber Street, and didn't apper to be affected by the dispersal zone, but I haven't gone past there in the last few days, so maybe they have also gone as well.
Sunday 1 February 2009 12.14pm
Written answer to a member's question from last week's full meeting of Lambeth Council

Cllr Lorna Campbell wrote:
Can the Cabinet Member give an update on how we are addressing the problem of rough sleepers around the area of Waterloo?

Cllr Donatus Anyanwu - Cabinet Member for Safer and Stronger Communities wrote:
Throughout most of 2008, rough sleeping increased in Waterloo primarily due to an increase in Eastern European national's [sic] (known as A10's), who do not have access to public funds. This means that we cannot place them in our hostels as the criteria for any individual is that they must be able to claim benefits. Also, there was one particular location known as Elizabeth House off York Road (Owned by Euro star) where these individuals were rough sleeping. As the land did not belong to Lambeth, we had to liaise with the owners, who in the beginning were reluctant to take any action to design out and use legal powers to remove such individuals. When the land owners did finally take action, the group of individuals (between 15-20 in number) were displaced to other areas of Waterloo.
This Labour Administration remains committed to finding a sustainable solution to the problem of rough sleeping. This means using adequate powers to displace rough sleepers supported by the right outreach work to get the homeless off the street permanently.

I am pleased that the Labour Administration, in conjunction with partners, successfully implemented a dispersal zone to allow problematic individuals to be moved but this will only be one in a series of measures that will allow us to tackle the problem head on and find a solution which will help to make local residents feel safer as well protect those who are vulnerable and homeless.

I will constantly review our approach both at an operational and strategic level but I am confidant that the right mix is in place to reach our target.

Saturday 26 Sep, 2020

Starting at 9am

Etc Venues

One Drummond Gate, Victoria, London SW1V 2QQ

What will we be discussing at MeasureCamp?

MeasureCamp is now less than 6 weeks away, not long at all. Sponsors are confirmed (thanks iJento, Calltracks & Tealium) and over 100 tickets have been distributed – another release is imminent. So one key question remains – what will people be talking about in the sessions?

For the first MeasureCamp, we pre-scheduled the majority of sessions. But now, we want to revert to a more typical unconference format where attendees bring their presentations or a topic they want to discuss and claim a room/timeslot for their session on the day. We will still have about 10 session pre-scheduled, on topics which we consider essential for Digital Analytics discussions. But the rest of the slots will remain blank for now.

Scheduled Sessions

10 sessions have been placed on the MeasureCamp schedule in advance of the event. What we need now are for volunteers to run these sessions. They are all big topics and nearly guaranteed to provoke a lot of discussion so the speaker will not have to talk for 30 min themselves. But we need to ink in some names asap (so I can cross that task off my to-do list). The list of sessions is as follows:

  1. Google Analytics Tips & Tricks
  2. SiteCatalyst Tips & Tricks
  3. Webtrends Tips & Tricks
  4. Google Analytics 101
  5. Campaign Analytics
  6. Member/Customer Analytics
  7. Tag Management
  8. Privacy
  9. Useful Tools
  10. The Future for MeasureCamp

Sessions descriptions can be found on the Scheduled Sessions page. Have a read through and let me know on if you are interested in being involved. Note that you can still do a session of your own and that descriptions can be adjusted/customised

Unscheduled Sessions

More exciting are all the sessions that will go up on the board at the start of MeasureCamp. While session slots can’t be claimed yet, we are inviting attendees to provide a description of their intended presentation/topic now. The first few have already been added to the Unscheduled Sessions page and these sound incredibly interesting:

  1. User Intent – Using the Long Neck (James Cornwell)
  2. Attribution – Last is not always the best (Russ McAthy)
  3. Paying for it (Nicholas Redding)
  4. Customer Lifetime Value (Yali Sassoon)
  5. Commercial analytics for non-profits (Temina Moledina)

Again, please email me if you would like to add your session to this page – so you can get people talking even before you start. It would be great to get a list of 20+ sessions here so we all know what to look forward to.

That other gritty 1989 movie shot in Portland

I remember seeing a poster or an ad that featured Burt Reynolds lounging in his bachelor pad at the Portland Plaza building from a movie still a few years back and then forgot about it.

Wait, Burt Reynolds shot a film in Portland? Indeed he did. It’s called “Breaking In.” I’m ashamed I’ve never heard of it. (Or ammmmm I?)

This 1989 American crime comedy film was directed by Bill Forsyth, written by John Sayles (!?!!), and stars Burt Reynolds, Casey Siemaszko, and Lorraine Toussaint. The film is about professional small-time criminals.

Their big heist in the film? Oaks Amusement Park. Yep. Big-time money to be had at the park. In fact, there’s a scene where Reynolds and Siemaszko are scoping the place out and watching security guards load BAGS of money from the day’s profits. (Who knew?) This also means there’s lots of great shots of the park.

Anyhow, the film is OK. Not great, moderately watchable. Of course, I loved it for all of the Portland scenes and I’ve screen capped a couple (mostly from Oaks Park – which is one of my personal favorite places in Portland).

Watch the film here:

12 thoughts

  1. I remember “Breaking In” mainly because a friend of mine, Arlene Kelly (wife of Neil Kelly of Kelly Construction, Inc.) looked down the hall from their Portland Plaza condo to see what all the commotion was about, while filming was going on. They left her in the movie.

    1. My dad welded those veggies onto Cornos as a young man. It was sad for us & my father to see it fall in 2006. My dad passed in 2013. Mimi

  2. Hey Charlie…when you’re town’s facade has changed dramatically it’s fun to watch the old facade, regardless of how many other fun things there are to do.

  3. I still think this is Burt Reynold’s best movie. It’s not as good as Forsyth’s Local Hero, more comparable to his Scottish local color film Comfort and Joy. It captures 1989 Portland in a wry snapshot by an outsider.

  4. The film hits you like the realization that Beck’s Loser was the last major hit song to be intially released in a vinyl format rather than CD. While the production has a ’70’s feel, it was a most fitting end to a decade that was like a 1920’s revival overlying an unstoppable urban decay. Surely, Portland was a perfect setting as you would have had a hard time finding such surviving locations in other west coast cities. The pharmacy locale in Drugstore Cowboy was as close to perfect for it’s era as you could get…and near impossible to re-create today. Likewise, Oaks Park brought back a look of what was once commonplace, but had long vanished elsewhere. It’s doubtful that a movie such as Breaking In could be filmed anywhere in Oregon today without something too modern slipping in to the views. (It’s even better if you watch it the way we used to access them, as an unexpected and delightful TV re-run that pops up.) Four stars (do teachers still have those shiny stickers anymore) just for throwing a hammer in the Hollywood machine.

  5. One of my personal favorites. People from out of the area don’t even know that Oaks Park exists.I refer them to this film sometimes because unlike I Tonya this one captures the real place at that time.

  6. At the opening scene a bi-plane lands in a harbor with a string of white tents. Does anyone know what that tent structure is. Is it still there ? It looks a little like the tents at the Denver airport, so maybe same developer ?

Eagulls - Ullages

Eagulls - UllagesEagulls: Ullages (Partisan Records)

LP | CD | DL

Gone are the rough edges, but Ullages is no less compelling, Eagulls once again prove why they’re one of the most important bands around right now!

Ullages is the follow up to Eagulls critically acclaimed self-titled debut, known for their raw angst filled sound. Their debut spoke to the disenfranchised, those who were all to aware of the horrendous state of affairs, it was an album packed with an adept realism. Scornful, powerful, dark and haunting with an abundance of intensity, you’ll be pleased to know not all that much has changed.

However, Ullages is the sound of a band maturing, the ragged edges smoothed over but it is no less bleak and harrowing. Perhaps more measured at times, a more expansive and brooding sound underpins the record with the thundering opener Heads or Tails setting the darkened tone perfectly. It’s the depth and passion of the lyrics that soon set this record apart.

Velvet is a truly beautiful track, prefaced with the insatiably eerie Harpstrings, this is a distressing love song which compounds the bands expansive sound, with swirling guitars drenched in copious amount of reverb, allowing the vocals to shine through this wall of guitar haze. At the opposite end of the scale though is the roaring bass of Skipping, perhaps the closest dalliance with their previous album.

Powerful drums coupled with sharp stabs of guitar underpinning the angst filled lyrics, George Mitchell’s snarled delivery at its peak. One of the most compelling tracks on the album, truly masterful. Lemontrees though seems to be the most overtly damming of the current state of affairs, as they “share the nations consciousness as they drown their thoughts to sleep”.

As the album closes out on the mellow notes of White Lie Lullabies, a chilled out end to a forceful and at time brutal tour de force of an album. Huge soaring soundscapes underpin this incredible album, which is packed with a plethora of exciting nuances. These are still anthems for the disenfranchised, their incredible songwriting is what makes this one of the most exciting albums around. However, at the same time it is the sound of a band maturing, there is more variation and an exquisite production quality.

Ullages is an album, which will become a classic – a true masterpiece!

Eagulls can be found online here eagulls.co.uk. They’re also on Facebook and tweet as @EAGULLSUK.

A Breast Cancer Survivor Discusses the Impact of Critical Illness Insurance

Posted on October 31, 2019 and updated November 6, 2019 in Critical Illness, Life Insurance Canada News 5 min read

LSM Insurance Independent Broker, Beirong Xiong has learned to take the good with the bad when life’s surprises come knocking at her door. After finishing her Master’s in Agricultural Economics and Business at the University of Guelph, Beirong moved to Ottawa (Ontario) to pursue a career in financial services. It was on a daily elevator ride that she met her future husband for the first time. “Something as random as that changed my life for the better,” she says. “Six years later David proposed to me in that same elevator, on my birthday.”

As her big day approached, another life-changing event, this one in the form of a critical illness, shattered her happiness. “The night before a routine mammogram I felt a small lump that wasn’t there before,” recalls Beirong. “When the test came back negative, I remembered a friend who told me from her own experience with breast cancer, if you discover something that doesn’t feel right to you, don’t be afraid to ask for the next test.

Follow up tests showed a malignant tumor. “My first instinct was to rush to the office to check the details of my critical illness insurance coverage. Whatever my prognosis, I knew I’d be off work for months and bills would pile up. To my relief I was covered and a cheque from the insurance company arrived just a few weeks later.”

“If I hadn’t insisted on further tests, it may have been another year before anything was detected,” says Beirong. “Early diagnosis is the key. Listen to yourself. Be brave.”

On the first-year anniversary of her diagnosis, another test result showed the cancer spreading to Beirong’s lungs. Unwilling to wait for further tests Beirong and David drove to Montreal for a costly PET scan. “In just three days I learned there was no cancer. It was a false alarm. Again, my critical illness insurance benefit had made another unexpected expense easier to bear.”

“Facing death made me rethink my life,” says Beirong. While going through treatment and recovery, she began to rearrange her priorities, slowing down to experience her life more fully. This change in attitude set Beirong on a path to realize a dream far greater than herself.

Through Breast Cancer Action Ottawa, an organization which offers emotional and physical support to breast cancer patients, Beirong discovered the breast cancer survivor’s dragon boat team Busting Out. “My first time in the boat, it was incredible to feel the power, energy and support from the team, from the dragon,” says Beirong. She looked to the women around her for support and inspiration, a theme that would shape many of the decisions she would make. “Though I’d always been athletic, I had gained thirty pounds after my cancer treatment. I didn’t look like myself. I felt fatigued and depressed. Seeing other women in my situation paddle together helped me to visualize a new self-image.”

As Beirong’s dragon boating ambitions grew, so did the goals she set for herself. New role models inspired her, and she picked up the mantle for those who passed on. One special mentor with late stage cancer pushed Beirong to join Team Canada. “I didn’t think I had a chance to make the team,” she recalls, “but I pushed myself to get my body into shape. I eventually earned a spot on the boat. When our team won gold in the 2000 meter race in Hungary that season, I could not stop crying holding that medal on the podium, thinking of my mentor, knowing we did it together.”

Beirong has assembled an impressive dragon boating resume, but her current goal really connects all the threads of her story. “She is lighting a trail for thousands of women to follow,” said David. “In my Chinese community, I was in the closet for 10 years, afraid to share my diagnosis. I wanted to break my silence and show women the strength they can find within themselves.”

Beirong went public for the first time when a journalist interviewed her at the opening ceremonies of a competition in Kunming, China.  “I spoke about my diagnosis and what I was able to achieve afterwards through dragon boating.”

Despite relatively high breast cancer rates Beirong has not seen teams from mainland China participate at any of the international gatherings of survivors she has attended. “My goal is to change that,” she says, “to bring a Chinese breast cancer survivor team to compete in the next World Breast Cancer Survivor Dragon Boat Championships in New Zealand in 2022.”

By sharing her story, Beirong is inspiring a different vision for women on what it means to be a survivor. Her story is spreading across the Chinese diaspora through social media platforms like WeChat. “If you have a dream, share that dream with everyone,” says Beirong. “Be ready for those unexpected trials that knock on your door with a healthy lifestyle of exercise, diet and reduced stress, and insurance to cushion the financial burden of recovery.”

Missouri Perks

Thursday July 11, The See tour day 13, leaving Kansas City:

Missouri was rejuvenating.

We stayed and played in Springfield on Tuesday and got the star treatment from Joe’s parents Bill and Peggy— they let us stay in their beautiful home, cooked us a delicious steak dinner, stayed out late to see our show, made us french-press coffee in the morning, and then took us out for Mexican food in the afternoon! Luckily we were also well received by Springfieldonians not blood related to our lead singer. We played at the charmingly hip, if decaying club, The Outland Barroom to a friendly late-night crowd of PBR drinkers and received more compliments (and sold more merchandise) than any other show of our tour thus far. Though my first impression of Springfield was unflattering (the land of strip-malls and mega-churches), I thought downtown Springfield was groovy— I enjoyed some delicious pre-show caffeine at a local coffee shop called the Mudhouse, strolled the spacious sidewalks, and even got to view Saturn through a powerful telescope that a man had randomly set up on a street corner (seriously).

It was hard to leave the fine accommodations, food, payment, and people of Springfield. We were there just long enough to get really comfortable before having to depart abruptly for Kansas City. The touring rock-band experience is highly romanticized*, with uproarious shows, adoring fans, ecstatic partying, and fiery liaisons being the enduring stereotypical images. Yet for us (and I have to imagine the majority of touring bands), touring has included a lot of driving, packing/unpacking the van, sleeping on floors, and eating cheap food. In Springfield the perks of a settled, domestic life were made explicitly clear— never has a bed been so soft, steak tasted so delicious, or a shower felt so cleansing to me. Luckily we were spoiled again in Kansas City by Joe’s sister Mo who gave us cozy couches and beds to sleep on after our early show at the large, sleek, downtown venue, the Czar Bar. We played a short solid set, sold some merchandise, watched the other bands, went to Mo’s house, showered, got a full night’s sleep, and woke in time to watch a comically bad Kansas City morning show over cups of coffee. It was great.

Friday July 12, The See tour day 14, on the road to Denver:

I’m certainly not saying that the comforts of home are better than the fun of touring. The comforts of home are good in relation to the adventure and struggle of touring. A soft bed, morning coffee, frequent hot meals, friends/family, and a regular routine all sound extremely appealing to me right now and I know I will cherish them when I return home… for a while… then slowly but surely these things will become the norm again, I’ll probably begin to take them for granted, and eventually my home life will seem a bit boring; I’ll again crave the thrill of new people and places. Yes it is tempting to dream up “have your cake and eat it too” hypotheticals: What if we were famous and could afford to travel in a tour bus with all the luxuries of home, have a crew of roadies to unload for us, and still get to enjoy the excitement of playing shows in new places? Though I would certainly never turn that scenario down, I know that if we were to gain it, we would lose much of what is making this tour such a rich, authentic, and humbling experience— staying night to night with friends and friendly strangers, impressing new listeners with our performances, eating and hanging out for cheap (i.e. picnics in parks), loading/unloadiing our own equipment (great exercise), and truly appreciating any small temporary comforts. I daresay that I will never be ultimately satisfied by any particular circumstances (e.g. wealth, fame, romance, talent, victory)— every gain in one area is counterbalanced by a loss in another. I think that the only way for circumstances to actually be satisfying is for them to perpetually change. Knowing this, I hope that I continue to have opportunities in my life (both musically and personally) to shift between periods of comfort and adventure, abstinence and indulgence, and consistency and novelty.

*I have no doubt in my mind that in the future I too will romanticize this tour and this time in my life. This is one of those “tell your grandkids about it” experiences, and I can easily see the story of the tour growing in stature as I get further and further removed from it. To be fair, much of this experience has been truly incredible: driving up to so many attractive skylines (Nashville, Louisville, Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, etc.), meeting so many interesting people (Ben, Darren, Valerie, Sarah, etc.), growing closer to my bandmates (Joe, Jason, Tyler, etc.), really hitting a strong stride in our performances, and enjoying the nightlife every now and again. This is likely, and thankfully what I will always remember about this tour. But to only remember the good times will be to create an idealized and inaccurate image of this tour. Yes it has been wonderful, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world, but I just want to point out now, while I still remember it, that it’s not all fun and freedom.

PicoCTF 2017 – No Eyes

This was a pretty fun little challenge. The blurb we get about the challenge is:

The website isn’t really me much, but you can still get the admin password, right?

Trying to break the web app using single quotes to login revealed the actual SQL query.

Using this I tried the query ‘ or pass like ‘%’ — and this produced an error message telling me that the flag was 63 characters long.

Trying the same query with ‘a%’ revealed an incorrect password.

So to get the flag we will have to brute force this. I came up with a pretty terrible python script using the requests http library to achieve this. It would loop through all characters until it received the “Login Functionality Not Complete” message, and then repeat over and over until we had the full flag.

The script I wrote can be found here. The full flag has not been shown to prevent spoilers. As I have been trying to learn more Python, this was a pretty decent and fun challenge!

Culture is all that we create.

Culture is all that we create, every moment. Art is an expression of the self that cannot be qualified as high or low, good or bad, for it reflects a perspective. Having “culture” It is not about knowing who did what, or what is that form, thing, and movement called. It is about becoming an ocean of knowledge and experiences. Furthermore, having a life full of culture and art is not only about visiting museums, seeing monuments, or buying exotic pieces of art; for if any of that does not transform you into a more understanding, caring person, if it does not cause you to feel your emotions, if it does not move you to love humanity more and to hope for peace and equality, or to understand that nobody, as a whole, isn’t better or worst than anybody else…Culture and art become a thing, a label, a souvenir, an ornament that wraps up class and money. Travel is that special opportunity to experience different ways of life, to set foot into unknown lands, to immerse in other cultures, to witness how people act and behave, and what conventions they follow.

Culture is all what humanity creates. Art is one of many expressions from humanity, Travel is the bridge to a human being’s expansion.

Each one of us can create and express, and we do so inevitably many times in our life without even knowing it. Through art, travel, and culture our passing by this world get bigger, more solid, better lived, for us and for others.
Culture and Art and Travel.

Early Writings

The Church and the World United

After this I saw Satan consulting with his angels and considering what they had gained. True, they had, through fear of death, kept some timid souls from embracing the truth; but many, even of the most timid, had received the truth, and thereupon their fears and timidity immediately left them. As these witnessed the death of their brethren and beheld their firmness and patience, they knew that God and angels assisted them to endure such sufferings, and they grew bold and fearless. And when called to yield their own lives, they maintained their faith with such patience and firmness as caused even their murderers to tremble. Satan and his angels decided that there was a more successful way to destroy souls, one that would be more certain in the end. Although Christians were made to suffer, their steadfastness, and the bright hope that cheered them, caused the weakest to grow strong and enabled them to approach the rack and the flames undaunted. They imitated the noble bearing of Christ when before His murderers, and by their constancy and the glory of God which rested upon them, they convinced many others of the truth. EW 226.1

Satan therefore decided that he must come in a milder form. He had already corrupted the doctrines of the Bible, and traditions which were to ruin millions were taking deep root. Restraining his hate, he decided not to urge on his subjects to such bitter persecution, but lead the church to contend for various traditions, instead of for the faith once delivered to the saints. As he prevailed on the church to receive favors and honors from the world, under the pretense of receiving benefits, she began to lose favor with God. Shunning to declare the straight truths which shut out the lovers of pleasure and friends of the world, she gradually lost her power. EW 226.2

The church is not now the separate and peculiar people she was when the fires of persecution were kindled against her. How is the gold become dim! how is the most fine gold changed! I saw that if the church had always retained her peculiar, holy character, the power of the Holy Spirit which was imparted to the disciples would still be with her. The sick would be healed, devils would be rebuked and cast out, and she would be mighty and a terror to her enemies. EW 227.1

I saw a very large company professing the name of Christ, but God did not recognize them as His. He had no pleasure in them. Satan seemed to assume a religious character and was very willing that the people should think they were Christians. He was even anxious that they should believe in Jesus, His crucifixion, and His resurrection. Satan and his angels fully believe all this themselves, and tremble. But if this faith does not provoke to good works, and lead those who profess it to imitate the self-denying life of Christ, Satan is not disturbed; for they merely assume the Christian name, while their hearts are still carnal, and he can use them in his service even better than if they made no profession. Hiding their deformity under the name of Christian, they pass along with their unsanctified natures, and their evil passions unsubdued. This gives occasion for the unbeliever to reproach Christ with their imperfections, and causes those who do possess pure and undefiled religion to be brought into disrepute. EW 227.2

The ministers preach smooth things to suit carnal professors. They dare not preach Jesus and the cutting truths of the Bible; for if they should, these carnal professors would not remain in the church. But as many of them are wealthy, they must be retained, although they are no more fit to be there than Satan and his angels. This is just as Satan would have it. The religion of Jesus is made to appear popular and honorable in the eyes of the world. The people are told that those who profess religion will be more honored by the world. Such teachings differ very widely from the teachings of Christ. His doctrine and the world could not be at peace. Those who followed Him had to renounce the world. These smooth things originated with Satan and his angels. They formed the plan, and nominal professors carried it out. Pleasing fables were taught and readily received, and hypocrites and open sinners united with the church. If the truth had been preached in its purity, it would soon have shut out this class. But there was no difference between the professed followers of Christ and the world. I saw that if the false covering had been torn off from the members of the churches, there would have been revealed such iniquity, vileness, and corruption that the most diffident child of God would have had no hesitancy in calling these professed Christians by their right name, children of their father, the devil; for his works they did. EW 228.1

Jesus and all the heavenly host looked with disgust upon the scene; yet God had a message for the church that was sacred and important. If received, it would make a thorough reformation in the church, revive the living testimony that would purge out hypocrites and sinners, and bring the church again into favor with God. EW 228.2

Le'Veon Bell rushes for season-high 87 yards in Jets' loss

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell rushed 21 times for 87 yards in a 42-21, Week 15 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night.

What It Means:

Bell also caught 2 passes on 2 targets for a single yard. The rushing total is actually his highest in a Jets' uniform, though his 3.3 yards per carry remain a career-worst. The Jets will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 16, so expect Bell to play with an extra chip on his shoulder in that one.

Bell scored 9.8 FanDuel points on Thursday. He has 676 rushing yards, 404 receiving yards, 57 receptions (69 targets), and 4 touchdowns in 13 games.

7 problem solving clothing tips every woman should know

There’s no woman that doesn’t recognize at least one of these clothing problems: visible bra straps, clothes that don’t stay put, pants that are too long to wear with flats or discovering on-your-way to somewhere that your deodorant has stained. Hollywood Fashion Secrets offers the right solutions to all of these ‘problems’. Discover our 7 must-know, problem-solving tips for yourself.
1. Visible bra straps underneath your racerback tops
These Bra Converting Clips are indispensable if you’re a fan of racerback tops or tank tops with a narrow back panel. These easy-to-use clips ensure that the straps of your favorite bras don’t peek out from underneath tops and dresses with a narrow back panel design. Now, you won’t need to buy special bras and the clips also create a little extra lift.
2. Visible nipples
Imagine: you’re at a party and notice that people you’re talking to keep looking at your chest, only to discover - when you look in mirror in the powder room - that your white top is a bit more sheer than you thought - oops! To prevent these types of awkward situations, these Silicone CoverUps nipple covers are your ideal solution. Available in different colors.
3. Staining on your clothes
Deodorant, makeup, dust, dirt and pet hairs; they can all suddenly appear on your clothes during the day - most probably with the worst timing! This Deodorant Removing Sponge is simply a must to always carry with you wherever you go. Always ready to use and no water needed.
4. Garments that don’t stay in place
Tops that sag off your shoulders or a plunging neckline that needs to stay put at all times. For these types of clothing problems, Hollywood Fashion Secrets tape is the solution. This is the product that launched the brand into stardom and now, the tape is available in different handy variations. You’ll probably want to purchase all of them!
5. A waistband that doesn’t fit
Some pant or skirt issues can’t be solved with a belt. For those times there’s this: the Hip Hugger. This smart, elastic ‘belt’ has suspender clips that you can simply attach to the back of your garment - to belt loops for instance - and the Hip Hugger will automatically adjust to the natural curves of your body for a perfect-fit waist.
6. Armpit staining
Your armpits can be the cause of all kinds of stains; wet sweat stains, white deodorant stains or yellow staining. Whatever the stain or the cause, they can all be prevented with these Garment Shields. Stick these pads to your garment and they’ll absorb perspiration and odors to prevent staining. You’ll save time and money on the dry cleaner.
7. The wrong length
Your favorite pants might have the perfect length to wear with heels but with flats, you’ll wear-down the hemline. Or you might have a knee-length skirt that you want to wear as a mini skirt, to team with your over the knee boots. Then Temporary Hem Tape is your new secret! This temporary tape contributes to a versatile wardrobe and from now on, you won’t have to alter pants or skirt lengths permanently. What an asset!

Tim Paine's move paid off.
Tim Paine's move paid off.

Paine’s big gamble pays off in the end

IN a series that has involved a rollercoaster of momentum swings, for once Australia and England shared the spoils in a mostly even day at the Oval.

The home side were surprisingly sent in by Tim Paine, and proceeded to cruise to 3-170 on the back of a Joe Root half-century and a sloppy display in the field by Australia.

They'd seemingly had laid a solid platform for a big total - before Mitchell Marsh rocked up to turn the day on its head with a four-wicket haul.

England took the final hour, however, with an aggressive Jos Buttler finishing unbeaten on 64 as England ended the day 8-271.

Here's what you missed overnight…

With the Oval's reputation of a batsman-friendly wicket, and the heavy workload of Australia's attack fresh in the mind, most expected Tim Paine, after winning the toss, to send David Warner and Marcus Harris out to bat.

Tim Paine raised eyebrows when he won the toss and elected to field first.
Tim Paine raised eyebrows when he won the toss and elected to field first.

But the Aussie skipper went with his gut and backed his bowling unit to do the business against a fragile England team. He was roundly panned - by punters and commentators alike - especially when England cruised to 3-170.

But who had the last laugh? Paine would've felt properly vindicated by stumps as England finished 8-271.

OK, so it wasn't a blazing start by any means. But by putting on 27 for the first wicket Joe Denly and Rory Burns, somewhat incredibly, now own the biggest opening partnership of the series - for either side.

England opener Rory Burns got the hosts off to an unusually competent start.
England opener Rory Burns got the hosts off to an unusually competent start.

And they roared past the previous best, 22 between Burns and Jason Roy in the second innings at Edgbaston, with a boundary.

It's not the biggest of the northern summer though. That honour goes to Ireland's William Porterfield and James McCollum, who put on 32 in their one-off Test against England at Lord's.

Jason Roy was first dumped as England's opener, and then left out altogether for the Oval Test - and Joe Denly must be worried he could go down the same path.

Denly got a second innings half-century at Old Trafford but has yet to stamp his mark on his Test career, and another cheap dismissal on Thursday leaves him under serious pressure.

While there's no shame in losing your wicket to Pat Cummins, Denly let himself down with an aggressive drive and a thick edge which Steve Smith juggled and juggled before taking the catch on his third attempt.

Ordinarily you don't want to give Joe Root a second chance - but Australia gave him three.

Peter Siddle was first, dropping a simple offering at fine leg when Root, on 24, hooked a short delivery from Pat Cummins down the paceman's throat.

Siddle made an absolute meal of his effort, but at least it was his catch. The same could not be said when Tim Paine leapt out in front of David Warner at first slip, with Root on 25, and grassed a chance of his own - again off Cummins.

Siddle had his own reason to be grumpy when he had Root, on 30 this time, driving and nicking wide of second slip - where Steve Smith dropped a tough chance diving to his right.

It was costly, as Root made a half-century.

With Australia looking a bit sluggish, England had a chance to drive home their advantage after lunch - but instead, had their two best batsmen this series out throwing their wickets away to lazy shots.

Rory Burns, on the cusp of another half-century, fell into Australia's short-ball trap and top-edged a Josh Hazlewood bouncer which was skied to Mitch Marsh at mid-wicket.

If Burns' was a bad shot, Stokes' seemed tantamount to a brain explosion. This time it was Marsh with the short ball, Stokes looking to hit onto the legside, and he was caught at point off a leading edge for 20.

Joe Root is having a miserable series.
Joe Root is having a miserable series.

He had every available chance - we've noted the dropped catches already - but still Joe Root wasn't able to cash in for a century, out for 57 shortly after tea.

Root copped a gem from Cummins, which stayed a little low and moved away to thud into middle stump. He has one of the worst conversion rates of an elite batsman in history, with 45 half-centuries but 'just' passing three figures 16 times.

It's also the ninth straight Ashes half-century which he's failed to convert into a ton.

Australia were more cautious with their DRS use on Thursday, having been burnt time and time again throughout this series, but when they did send one upstairs… well, you should already know what happened.

Australia hoped they had Jos Buttler strangled down the legside off Mitchell Marsh - but Marais Erasmus disagreed, reasoning it had come off the batsman's thigh guard.

Tim Paine called for a review, which confirmed Erasmus' suspicion… and it was another burnt review.

Australia have now had six decisions overturned from 30 attempts.

Mitch Marsh swung the match back to Australia.
Mitch Marsh swung the match back to Australia.

This is the Mitchell Marsh the Australian selectors have been waiting all these years for.

Marsh was first economical and then devastating as he ripped through England's middle order with three wickets to add to his earlier dismissal of Stokes.

Bowling full and swinging it a mile, Marsh had the wickets of Jonny Bairstow (22), Sam Curran (15) and Chris Woakes (2) in quick time to give Australia a healthy advantage late in the day.

Brought in to take up the slack from warhorse duo Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood, Marsh was outstanding with the ball - getting the ball to hoop around and finishing with four wickets for the day.

He churned through 15 overs and looked every bit the all-rounder Australia as hoped he'd be for the past five years.

But 16 was one too many, with Marsh twice pulling out of his run-up before grabbing his right hamstring after just one ball. Concerns of a serious injury were allayed as he jogged from the ground, suggesting it was more likely cramp had struck down the 27-year-old.

He was off for a pickle juice and was back on ten minutes later.

Once it was clear Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood were fit to fire, the last spot in the Australian XI was narrowed down to Peter Siddle and Mitchell Starc.

Australia went down the Siddle route, aiming to 'suffocate' England according to Tim Paine - but the plan backfired with the Victorian enduring his loosest day of the tour, finishing the day with 0-61 from 17 overs.

Peter Siddle had a day to forget after beating Mitch Starc to the final pace bowler’s spot.
Peter Siddle had a day to forget after beating Mitch Starc to the final pace bowler’s spot.

Starc wasn't perfect at Old Trafford, but did come up with key partnership breakers in both innings prompting Glenn McGrath to wonder whether Australia had pulled the wrong rein.

"I'm really surprised (Starc) is not in. (As a) left-armer, he offers something different," said Australia's second-highest wicket taker.

First, there was the bizarre fallout from 'glasses-gate', with Steve Smith accused of mocking bespectacled England cult hero Jack Leach before flipping it around and saying it was in fact former Australian teammate Chris Rogers who had been his target.

And then Australia found a different way to impersonate Leach - this time with Pat Cummins following in the spinner's footsteps by taking a wicket with a no ball, when he trapped Sam Curran LBW only to have replays confirm he'd overstepped the mark.

It didn't cost Australia too dearly, however. Curran was out for 15 shortly after, falling to Marsh.

There were shades of Ben Stokes at Headingley in Jos Buttler's outstanding late revival, smashing a sparkling, unbeaten 64 as he partnered with Jack Leach to add 45 for the ninth wicket so far.

Like Stokes, Buttler went into T20 mode - smacking Josh Hazlewood back over his head for a powerful six, one of three in his innings to date, to signal his intent.

With Tim Paine putting Australia's batsmen on the boundary to stifle Buttler, he still managed to find the rope with a series of bludgeoning stokes and an audacious reverse sweep among his six boundaries.
