Because the floating sometimes open and close after user click on a element, fixing the Floating Dialog box inside right/left sidebar of the website as an extra option will be perfect.
I think it should be a drop down menu.
This post is marked as "IMPLEMENTED" but I don't see that option available yet. The dialog box can be set to fixed left or right but placing it in a sidebar would be ideal for me. | 2019-04-22T01:15:59Z | https://support.fancyproductdesigner.com/support/discussions/topics/5000059313 |

I have been on the road with my Garmin 760RV for 8 months and love it. My only complaint is the RV Parks database. Twice my Garmin has directed me to bogus locations. And since I have a toad, I can't back up. I have learned to check my destination with the Google map location. If different, I put in the park's website address.
Also, I urge you to use Garmin's "report an error" webpage if you find a discrepancy. It helps us all.
I do use the Garmin 770 and love that it customizes to our rig, and have employed the Garmin basecamp software to plan a trip and then load it into the garmin. This is slightly buggy as to make it import you need to turn off propane warning.
I know rvtripwizard has an export tool, to gpx and csv, but neither can load into the garmin. I have heard of a software that will convert the csv to load, but would like to know if anyone has any true experience doing that and if it works.
We in our second year of using RVtripwizard. We find it useful for planning out our routes, stops and campgrounds. We’ve not used the export tool other than to download into an email. We program our Garmin on travel days to get us to the next stops.
I have a Magellan Roadmate GPS with it you can put in preference such as RV height, weight, if it has propane. The only problem that I have had with it is some camp grounds are located in the wrong place and sometimes it take you out of the way to get to the campground, so when we get about 20 miles from the campground we look it up on our phone using Google Earth to make sure we are taking the right way.
I have the Garmin 760 RV. It has the same issue with campground addresses. Before I take off, I check the address against my smartphone. I also make sure to notify Garmin of any mistakes.
Five years ago, switched from using Garmin to a free Rand McNally on my iPad. Rand quit updating for Apple iOS on iPad and iPhone, so bought the standalone Rand 7735 a year or so ago. Rand once again did not have computer software updates when iOS updated, except if I called, then they sent me a micro-card. That was a hassle. Sold to a fellow RVer in Florida who uses Rand McNally and Windows computers.
Recently bought the Garmin RV 760LMT and am very glad to be back with Garmin. Bought a refurbished one. Doesn't quite have as many bells & whistles as the previous Rand McNally, but totally stable, upgradable, and it's my 4th Garmin over the years.
I do check all routes against Apple or Google maps and also use the free Rand McNally Atlas app on my iPad distributed by Apple at the apps store. Great for an overall perspective.
and, I use RoadTrippers for after I've figured out miles I go in a day, and want to see "what to do" at each stop. That's a fun part of the planning by computer/apps. It's all fun.
THANK YOU for this info. We are planning our first major trip of focus and wandering.
We have used Garmin for many years and went to the RVT version when we bought the Axis. We depend on Garmin on every trip, in addition we use Google Maps on the iPad in order to see what is ahead in detail, which Garmin does not offer. We appreciate the additional info Google Maps offers..when we zoom in we can find restaurants, gas stations etc.
We have friends who use Waze … but, have not ventured to that app.
Hi, new here, but DH and I are planning a cross country trip next spring. We have a lot we want to see (now that we're retired) and also to visit my family in Washington State (we're in VA...long story ) I was wondering about using AAA. We've used them in the past before we got the camper and before internet. We have a 2012 Four Winds 24C.

Here I am working away before the game turned "sour". Dee asked for a photo of the cats, and you can see how excited they are by football.
Not only did I catch up on the scarf, I completed two Christmas stockings for our local Ronald McDonald house. Each year our group makes over 80 stockings, so my contribution isn't much, but at least I do something. Right in the middle of this project, my sewing machine started making horrible noises and quit stitching correctly. I fiddled around with it, but it wasn't till DH watched my fiddling that it started behaving. Guess that's what happens when you're confronted by an engineer!?
The other day when we looked out our bedroom window, we saw this wonder. Spiders must be the ultimate lace makers! It's more filled in now and reminds me of a lace doily.
We are going to be spending time this weekend with these two. Don't you just love how they are concentrating?
Hope everyone has a great week, too. Happpy Stitching! | 2019-04-23T08:13:35Z | http://stitchalongwithme.blogspot.com/2015/ |

I saw the movie Interstellar over the weekend. I really liked the movie, facts and science aside, I like the human side of the story. Without sounding too mushy, I believe that Love does transcend time and space. I will not spoil the movie for those who have not seen it yet. It is long but worth it.
While I was watching the movie, one of the questions that I kept coming back to was the source of energy for space travel. I have often wondered how we will solve the energy problem. Even the premise of space travel in the movie could have been mute if the energy problem had been solved in Earth. Renewable sources of energy are earth bound so if we have to create a renewable sources of energy in space, we could use the Sun but that limits travelling within the Solar system. There has to be another source of energy that should be able to solve this problem. With that context, I would like to propose that Nuclear energy by far holds the most potential. I know, I know before you crucify that idea. Lets ponder if we could really harness Nuclear Fission, i.e combining atoms to make different elements and capture and use the energy during the process? Can we do this safely, in scale and solve the energy problem? I think we really need to believe in making the Vertical leap when it comes to new sources of energy. The same lateral thinking just does not work.
Here is a video about Startup Energy Reykjavik, I wrote about this when it was launched.
I think we need initiatives and entrepreneurs who are thinking in a different paradigm to solve the problems of the future.

On Jan. 11, Dr. Robert Kelchen, an Assistant Professor with the Department of Education Leadership, Management and Policy, ranked No. 32 out of the top 200 professors a group of national educators ranked, which looked at approximately 20,000 faculty in total. Education Week and American Enterprise Institute made this announcement.
Director of Media Relations Laurie Pine, who has worked closely with Dr. Kelchen, commented on his achievement.
“It was announced today by Education Week and American Enterprise Institute that Seton Hall’s Robert Kelchen made No. 32 out of the top 200 professors that Rick Hess and a group of national educators ranked, looking at approximately 20,000 faculty – as those who are making a difference engaging with public policy on important higher education issues.,” Pine wrote in an email.
She provided additional important details about Dr. Kelchen’s achievement, conveying just how meaningful it is.
“I think that makes him number 1 for N.J. scholar influencer professors on the list,” Pine said.
“Having approximately 116 interviews published in the last year, he tied for first place (along with Temple’s Sara Goldrick-Rab) for receiving the most mentions by the education press and was ranked sixth in the nation for mentions in mainstream U.S. newspapers in general. He also received a ranking of first place in the nation in the Junior Faculty category,” she continued.
Dr. Kelchen shared insight about why he pursued higher education in the first place.
Now that he is in higher education, he wants to help students solve pressing issues like affording the universities they attend.
Dr. Kelchen is skeptical about how much progress can be made, though, in consideration of the government shutdown.
“I don’t expect to see major changes in higher education over the next year at the national level, particularly with a gridlocked Congress,” he continued.
He believes there is hope with new presidential candidates and legislation. | 2019-04-20T01:17:41Z | http://www.thesetonian.com/2019/01/23/professor-awarded-national-ranking/ |

The 1990 Erasmus Prize was dedicated to Archaeology, more specifically to prehistory.
Grahame Clark (1907-1995) was associated with Cambridge University throughout his professional career. He produced influential publications which provide surveys of various prehistoric periods and regions. Throughout the years he gradually developed the concept of ‘World Prehistory’ (World Prehistory - an Outline). He formed the basis for the archaeological theory that gained much credence in the world of archaeology in the 1960s. Professor Clark's excavations, particularly at the Mesolithic site Star Carr, set the standard for the use of various auxiliary sciences. His research in the Fenlands of East Anglia was of major importance. From 1935 to 1970, he was editor-in-chief of the eminent journal Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society. Professor Clark was awarded the Erasmus Prize because he was one of the first scholars to establish cross-links, in both theory and practice, between the historical, anthropological and biological sciences. With his book Prehistoric Europe – the Economic Basis, he can be seen as a pioneer in the study of the economic aspects of prehistoric societies. His publications reached a wide audience.
Grahame Clark set up a fund with which the Prehistoric Society can award an annual prize. Another fund, which he set up in 1992, enables the British Academy to award a medal for outstanding achievement through a recent contribution to prehistoric archaeology.
In accordance with article 2 of the constitution of the Praemium Erasmianum Foundation concerning the enhancement of the position of the humanities, social sciences and the arts and the promotion of appreciation of these fields within society, His Royal Highness Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, Patron of the Foundation, has confirmed the decision of the Board of the Foundation to award the Erasmus Prize for the year 1990 to Grahame Clark.
he has established in Cambridge, through his incisive and inspiring working methods, a scholarly institute whose influence is felt throughout the entire world.
Who is this creature we call Man? From where did he arise? Where did he come from? And where is he going? These questions have puzzled thinkers ever since the dawn of history. Many Erasmus Prize winners as well have contemplated these matters; I am thinking, in particular, of the many philosophers, theologians, anthropologists and psychologists whom we number among our laureates. The questions surrounding the origins of Man, and what distinguishes him from animals, also forms the foundation of your work, Professor Clark.
In contrast, however, to all previous laureates who have pondered the dim beginnings of Man's history, you approach these issues, as a prehistorian and archaeologist, by the most matter-of-fact and often seemingly simple discoveries. Based on the exacting study, classification and comparison of divergent archaeological evidence - such as flint stones, hand axes, pottery shards, soil traces and even fossil pollen, as well as a host of other subtle remnants from the distant past - you have demonstrated that there is more to the science of prehistory than merely collecting. By making use of the modern techniques of natural science to ask provocative questions of the discovered material, you have been able to draw conclusions regarding the biological, ecological, social, economic and anthropological aspects of primitive Man. You recognized quite early the interdisciplinary character of your work, and have linked together disciplines which still stood quite far apart from one another at the beginning of this century.
While the historian concerns himself only with the last 5,000 years of human history at the very most, your field of study is somewhat broader, covering a few million years at the very least. Although more has happened regarding the development of Man and his environment in the last two centuries than in the last 50,000 years, and more again in the last 50,000 years than in the last 500,000 years, you have made it clear that there is no more important event imaginable than the moment when Man differentiated himself from the primates and all other animals through the development of culture. During the cultural flowering that has taken place since that moment - at first very gradually and then with increasing rapidity - two revolutions, the Neolithic and the Industrial, formed the most remarkable turning points. With the transition to the period which we term the Neolithic, Man took the step from being merely the beneficiary of what nature supplied to a food-producer with a fixed dwelling place and dominance over plants and animals. On the one hand, this formed the basis for increasingly complex societies with a high degree of diversity, creativity and cultural wealth. On the other hand, it also sowed the seeds of unbridled population growth, large-scale poverty, famine, epidemics, war and environmental pollution. The great challenge of our time, as our laureate in 1987, Alexander King, foresaw decades ago, is to direct the positive achievements of civilization toward the mastering and banishment of all the unwanted and unforeseen negative side-effects of our cultural unfolding.
One of the central questions which has occupied you, Professor Clark, over the years, is how the earliest hominids, around 500,000 - 250,000 years ago, differentiated themselves from the primates. "We owe our identity as human beings", you write, "to the fact that, in contrast to animals, we belong to societies constituted by shared values". Your interest in this regard has concentrated itself on the inventiveness and adaptability of the earliest human beings, as well as on their differing cultural patterns, each with its own individual value. Your study of bio-archaeology, alongside that of economy demonstrates the wide ranging circle of your research, whereby you have posed the question of how Man was able to survive and to adapt himself to various ecosystems. In your social archaeological studies, you point out that we are not dealing with individuals, but with communities of people, including their internal stratification, their local organization, their relations to one another, as well as to the world of nature.
You have further pointed out that in the course of the last two to three million years, the most basic biological functions like eating, sheltering, pairing, breeding, fighting and dying were performed in idioms acquired by belonging to historically and locally defined cultural groups, where patterns of behaviour are conditioned by particular sets of values. This is the essential difference between Man and animals. Man's behaviour is determined more by historical and cultural influences, rather than by innate, biologically determined factors. The sharing of common traditions is a consciousness of sharing a common past. We follow cultural patterns inherited through belonging to societies shaped by history. We are free to initiate change, and this change, in turn, results in an astonishing diversity of cultural patterns.
The prehistorian is especially qualified to recognize this unique diversity in Man, just as you have done in your many publications. Assisted by your knowledge of comparative ethnology and social anthropology, you have come to the conclusion that, quite other than is the case with animals, the entire process of humanization is based on the growth of distinct traditions, which result in a broad spectrum of cultural diversity. It is precisely this diversity, and the resulting social disparities, which are the key factors in the intensification of culture. In this regard, rivalry and emulation are the most important incentives for Man, just as they still are to this day. For Man, unlike the animals, the specific is relevant and not the general.
In your study of the earliest and most primitive artefacts, you have determined that - other than we would have suspected - mere utility was not the ultimate motivation for the form in which many of these relics have come to us. In your essay "Symbols of Excellence" you write that the most refined artefacts - whether it be shells from the Palaeolithic age or ivory, amber, jade, gold or precious gems from later periods - were not made as utilitarian articles or weapons, but were intended for the cult of ancestors and, later, also for personal adornments. Thus, these objects were created not to satisfy material appetites, but to promote religious and political value systems. Consequently, it seems that the ability to discriminate was also a basic ingredient for survival; for he who knew how to make the finest weapons, tools and medicines also had the greatest chance for survival. We see this every day around us. Therefore, the notions of excellence and aesthetic awareness, ideas which can be traced back to earliest vestiges of homo sapiens, are the basis not merely of cultural advance, but of the very attainment of humanity.
As the entire world becomes more and more controlled by industrial technology, and the similarities between peoples appear to be become greater than their differences, one wonders how this process of homogenisation can be reconciled with the diversity of human values. Does not the process of homogenisation, if carried to its conclusion, destroy the diversity of cultural patterns and, ultimately, the dignity of man?
Fortunately, however, you remain truly optimistic, for in your opinion, as I understand it, this greater freedom of opportunity has only stimulated emulation and whetted the collective appetite for success; while the professionalism and specialization present in the modern world only adds to the variety and diversity of Man, rather than detracting from it.
These absorbing questions, which you have suggested in your publications, define the wide scholarly terrain which is brought together in your work. I can imagine with what fascination your students must have attended to your lectures. In Cambridge, you have established, through your inspiring working methods, a scientific school whose influence is felt all around the world. With your countless publications, including three books which appeared only last year, you have enriched the science of prehistory immeasurably. And in addition, you have illuminated for a large public the meaning of prehistorical insights for modern society. But what stands out above all your other activities and accomplishments is your great love for and interest in Man. This is a distinction which you share in honour with a long line of Erasmus Prize winners because, as a colleague of yours once remarked, "to be human is not to be everyman, it is to be a particular kind of man". And you, Professor Clark, are indeed a very particular kind of man.
And with these words, I would like - and it is a great pleasure for me - to present you with the Erasmus Prize 1990.
As Praeses of the Praemium Erasmianum it has fallen to you to present prizes to a long procession of men and women who have made outstanding contributions to the artistic and intellectual life of our continent. This year it gives me the greatest pleasure to accept the Erasmus Prize from your hands for contributions made to the study of Prehistory. The sense of honour that I feel at my name being added to the prestigious roll of previous winners is much enhanced by the circumstances under which you have presented me with the prize and not least by the gracious presence of Her Majesty and of so many members of the Royal Family.
To be awarded a prize which takes its name from an illustrious Dutchman who at the same time was a great citizen of Europe and through his writings did so much to open up our modern world of sensibility and thought is indeed a most signal honour. Now the master paid a number of visits to England and, as a Cambridge man, it is a source of pride that he taught there for a longer period than elsewhere in my country.As a former Master of Peterhouse, the oldest college in Cambridge and one situated only a couple of hundred meters or so upstream from Queens where Erasmus lodged between 1511(c)14,I can claim a slight, although tenuous, link. As we know from his correspondence Erasmus counted among his closest Cambridge friends John Watson who was a fellow of Peterhouse under my thirtieth predecessor as Master of the College; it is very thin, but nevertheless it is a link.
Since Prehistory only began to take shape some three centuries or so after his death Erasmus himself could hardly have been aware of the subject. Yet prehistorians, like those who work in many of the fields recognized by the award of the Erasmus Prize, realize how much they owe to a man who took such an important part in freeing Christendom from superstition and making possible the growth of modern consciousness. One aspect of this is the way we have come during recent centuries to appreciate that the world and indeed the very universe in which we live have evolved over immense periods of time.
If we turn to palaeontology to tell us about our biological evolution it is to prehistory that we look for evidence of the evolution of specifically human patterns of behaviour. The artefacts recovered by archaeology tell us not merely how our forebears adapted to and modified their environments but how they learnt to shape their behaviour to accord with cultural values rather than merely with biological imperatives. As contemporary history reminds us we are human to the extent that we are able to chose between alternatives. You have shown your appreciation of the significance of the study of prehistory by awarding it the Erasmus Prize.
May I say how much I appreciate the care there has been taken to ensure that this occasion has been pleasureable as well as memorable to me personally. The brave sound of the Danish lurer is a tuneful reminder that prehistoric people were far from living by bread alone. Moreover they remind me very vividly how much I owe to the example of Danish prehistorians. For one thing they set me a standard when I came to write my doctoral dissertation on the Mesolithic Age in Britain dealing with the British evidence for the cultural life of the hunter-fisher people of the early Postglacial period. Many years later I had the privilege of teaching the future Queen of Denmark when she came to Cambridge as Princess Margarethe to take her Diploma.
Similarly the film, which we have just seen, illustrating the work on The Somerset Levels Project, reminds me of my early association with zoning postglacial deposits in the Somerset Levels and in the Cambridge of Fenland by means of archaeology and pollen-analysis. The choice of this film is all the more satisfying to me that it has been made by Professor John Coles, who we are delighted to see that he is here present with us - I wrote this before I knew he was going to be here - one of my most brilliant former pupils and later my close colleague as editor of the Prehistoric Society and a leading member of the staff of the Department of Archaeology at Cambridge.
In conclusion I thought you would like to know how I intend to use the Erasmus Prize which has been such an honour to receive. I intend to use it to promote and to reward fellow prehistorians for the contributions they are making to a subject whose importance you have indicated by awarding this prize to Prehistory.I am very glad to say that the Prehistoric Society has undertaken to administer a Europa Fund to provide an annual monetary prize and that the British Academy has agreed to accept an endowment for a medal to recognize achievements in Prehistory comparable to those it already awards to leading scholars in other fields. In this way I hope your action in awarding me the Erasmus Prize as a prehistorian will help to further the wider recognition of the subject in our continent as a whole.
John Grahame Douglas Clark (1907- 1995) was educated at Marlborough College and Peterhouse Cambridge, where he was first a research student and subsequently assistent lecturer in archaeology from 1930-46. During World War II he served as a squadron leader in the RAF with a special commission in Air Intelligence and Air History. After the war he became a university lecturer in Archaeology and in 1952 he was appointed as the Disney Professor of Archaeology and Ethnology, which post he held until 1974. From 1973 until 1980 he was Master of Peterhouse, Cambridge.
Grahame Clark made a name for himself at an early age. The Mesolithic Age in Britain was published in 1932, followed by The Mesolithic Settlement of Northern Europe in 1935, which was rewritten in 1975. In 1935 he became the first editor of the Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society, a position he held for 35 years. Under his guidance the Proceedings grew into an internationally renowned and highly appreciated periodical, in which articles covering the British Isles, Europe and beyond appear. His ability to provide the broad overview is also apparent in works such as Prehistoric England (1940 & 1962). In 1939 he published Archaeology and Society (19571/42). In this book Professor Clark laid the foundation for the development of theoretical thinking in archaeology, from which came the impressive series New Directions in Archaeology, published by his Institute at Cambridge.
Not only in his theoretical and written work, but also in his field work, Grahame Clark has won his spurs. Firstly he focused on East Anglia, the region close to Cambridge, where he demonstrated the importance of archaeological investigation of the Fenlands at Peacock's Farm. His interest in the Mesolithic period led him to excavate at Starr Carr, Yorkshire. These excavations were exemplary in the manner in which all possible sciences related to archaeology were used as part of the work. All of the drawings for the publication in 1954 on this excavation were done by Grahame Clark himself.
Clark's book Prehistoric Europe - the Economic Basis, published in 1952, has been highly influential on the thinking on prehistoric archaeology far beyond Britain. In this book he expressly pointed the way the use of ethnografical information. The book has been translated into several languages, including Russian and Polish. In 1959 The Prehistory of Southern Africa appeared, followed by World Prehistory - an Outline in 1961 (reprinted in 1962 and rewritten in 1977). Together with Stuart Pigott, Clark wrote Prehistoric Societies (1965), a highly valued survey of European prehistory. Aspects of Prehistory (1970) is the reflection on the lectures he gave at Berkeley.
Grahame Clark's latest books bear witness to an active life: The Identity of man as seen by an Archaeologist (1982), Symbols of Excellence; Precious Materials as Expression of Status (1986) and a study on Space and Time in History, which appeared in 1991.
In 1990 the Erasmus Prize was awarded to Sir Grahame Clark in the field of Prehistory. | 2019-04-20T17:23:44Z | http://www.erasmusprijs.org/Prijswinnaars?itemid=D5914767-A9E2-F279-7B12CEFC169E2C4B&lang=en&mode=detail |
But the council ultimately voted that down, with many council members saying the moratorium needed to be vetted by a council committee. The moratorium would give Spin, the company which currently has a contract to rent dockless bicycles in Lexington, the right to exclusively operate electric scooters after April 2019.
The city would have time before April to set up parameters and restrictions on how they can be used.
“There is a company called Bird that has brought these into 45 cities in the last 30 days,” said Scott Thompson, the bicycle and pedestrian planner for the area Metropolitan Planning Organization. Thompson said the scooter company deliberately brings the scooters into cities that do not have policies or rules regarding electric scooters.
Some council members said they were uneasy giving Spin the exclusive rights to provide electric scooters. Spin officials told Thompson that it wanted to add electric scooters as part of the pilot bicycle program, which started June 25.
Councilwoman Angela Evans said she felt like the council was being “hood winked” because Spin’s agreement was to provide dockless bikes, which have a public health benefit.
The pilot project with Spin does not cost the city any money.
The city chose one provider for its dockless bike-share program to help limit the number of bikes on Lexington streets, city officials said. After the pilot program is complete, the city can and will look at opening the dockless bike business to other competitors. The same would be true for electric scooters, said Derek Paulsen, the city’s planning commissioner.
Frustrated by the number of electric scooters on their sidewalks and on public rights of ways, cities such as West Hollywood, Seattle, Saint Paul, Nashville, Boston and Miami have banned the personal transportation devices, reported Fox News.
Meanwhile, Portland and Denver have started pilot programs that have limited the number of electric scooters on streets.
Councilwoman Jennifer Mossotti, who chairs the council’s Planning and Public Safety Committee, said she hopes the electric scooter issue can be discussed at the committee’s meeting next month. | 2019-04-20T01:03:33Z | https://www.kentucky.com/news/local/counties/fayette-county/article216705890.html |
Recently we published our annual email marketing benchmark guide. We surveyed over 400 marketing executives across key industries including Financial Services, Manufacturing, Retail/eCommerce, Tech/High-Tech and Travel/Hospitality.
How does email revenue correlate with email marketing spend?
Beyond operational metrics, which success measures should marketers focus on?
Email senders across industries that allocate more budget to email marketing have higher email marketing revenue. Senders in Financial Services and Travel/Hospitality that dedicate approximately 38 percent of their marketing budget to email drive approximately 22- 25 percent of their company’s overall revenue. Senders in Manufacturing and Retail/E-commerce are dedicating a quarter of their budget to email marketing and report email revenues that account for 16-17percent of their total revenue. Overall participants report email marketing budget allocation of almost 32 percent and an email revenue contribution of 19 percent, which is nearly identical to the Tech/High-Tech industry.

In 1973, Arnold Jäger, Sr. passed away at the age of 77 years. Although naturally a deep loss, the event did not entail a break in business leadership. Not only was the second generation firmly integrated into the company, proven and reliable employees also ensured continuity at all levels.
Arnold Jäger, Jr. and Dr. Klaus Pfennig, who joined the company with a Diploma in Business Administration in 1972, directed their total energy to continuing the company according to the ideals of its founder. Sensible distribution of tasks among management have allowed Arnold Jäger, Jr. to strengthen technical development of products and processes.
In 1974, Arnold Jäger, Jr. became sole proprietor of Gummi Jäger and its associated companies.
The two Gummi-Jäger production sites for rubber molded parts and belted chain conveyors were consolidated within a 5,000 m² newly constructed building in Hanover-Anderten in 1975, under the name Artemis Kautschuk und Kunststoff-Technik. In addition, business with non-standard transport conveyors including the corresponding machinery and staff were taken over from the Continental Gummi-Werke AG and integrated into Artemis.
In 1985, Regina Jäger entered the company as managing partner of Artemis, built up an in-house sales unit and established an Artemis-specific product and process development.
Today, Artemis Kautschuk- und Kunststoff-Technik provides central services in elastomer chemistry, such as compound development, and the centralized test laboratory for the entire Jaeger Group. As well, Artemis maintains a modern, computer-assisted mixing facility for high quality rubber compounds.
Since then, the various operating departments have developed into the 3 divisions Belts and Conveyors, Stators and Rotors and Molded Parts, with international growth focused on distribution to the target groups. | 2019-04-21T16:34:48Z | https://www.jaegergruppe.de/en/70er.php |
Today is day 25. My second surgery was on April 9th. I'll have my jaw unwired in three days. My jaw was wired this time to ensure that it heals properly. I'm kind of used to my jaw being wired now, so it's not really as awful as some people might think. There's little to no pain, and when there is a hint of pain it's usually no worse than a 2 or 3 out of 10.
In four days I will have rubber bands put into my mouth. I'm not sure how long I'll need to keep them, but I am hoping it's not too long. I can deal with having them two weeks, but I am hoping it won't be eight weeks. I get the feeling they'll recommend 4-8 weeks. Eight weeks of rubber bands will mean that I'll get them out three months after my surgery.
17 days from now I'll have the splint removed from my upper jaw. I look forward to that day because that means it will have been six weeks since my surgery.
I've been continuing with soup, Ensure, water and Gatorade. It's ok, but I'm craving real food more than ever before.
I visited The San Diego Zoo for the second time this past weekend. I have a membership so it's about time that I went back for a return visit. I got hungry while I was out, so I stopped by a gas station and picked up the liquid product that looked like it packed the most protein: Nesquik. It only kept me from being hungry for about an hour.
The next time I check in here on the website, I am hoping to say that I am unwired and that my jaw is opening and closing without issues. I expect it may be a few weeks before I am able to chew, but I am hoping for sooner. | 2019-04-25T22:18:06Z | http://www.jawsurgerytips.com/blog/2015/5/4/second-jaw-surgery-recovery-days-22-25-almost-unwired |

Michigan's 'M' state highways could be considered as iconic to the state as Mackinac Island. But what happens when one highway gets to be too popular?
Michigan Department of Transportation officials have begun hanging signs that read simply "22" in locations where vandals have repeatedly stolen the iconic M-22 road signs from alongside the beloved roadway where it snakes along Lake Michigan’s shoreline through Grand Traverse, Benzie and Leelanau counties. The simpler signs are an attempt to curb a growing number of thieves who abscond with the traffic markers.
The M-less shields will make 22 resemble a North Carolina highway sign. NC uses diamonds like Michigan (the other only state that does). However North Carolina's diamonds are more rounded at the corners rather than 90 degree angles found on Michigan signs.
Here's a look at an NC highway shield - in fact, a roadway that would be equal to M-22's popularity. NC-12 is routed along the state's Outer Banks and shows up as stickers on car bumpers the same way M-22 does in Michigan.
Colorado has changed Milepost 420 along Interstate 70 to Milepost 419.99 after too many thefts of the marijuana-themed number.
Just what makes M-22 such a coveted roadway? The roadway has bonafide deep Michigan routes. It's been around ever since Michigan has numbered highways. M-22 got its name July 1 of 1919 and hasn't changed much of the last 97 years. Only in the last 15 or 20 has tourism really skyrocketed. The roadway hugs Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, is the main drag through the Leelenau wine region and in 2015 was named tops in the nation in a USA Today readers' poll of fall drives.
There once was an M-less M-63 shield sign posted north of St. Joseph. But that was likely more of a goof than an intentional M-omission. | 2019-04-22T19:11:29Z | https://wrkr.com/m-22/ |

If a profit made by the trust is not assessable, any part of that profit distributed to a beneficiary will also be non-assessable in most cases-for example, a share of a profit made on the sale of property acquired by the trust before 20 September 1985.
However, if you receive non-assessable payments from a trust, you need to make cost base adjustments to your units or trust interest. Those adjustments will affect the amount of any capital gain or capital loss you make on the unit or interest (for example, when you sell it). If certain amounts exceed your cost base, you may also make a capital gain equal to that excess in the year it is paid to you.
tax-deferred amounts (other non-assessable payments, including indexation allowed to the trust on its capital gains and accounting differences in income).
A CGT-concession amount received before 1 July 2001 was treated in the same way as a tax-deferred amount. From this date, CGT-concession amounts no longer require a cost base/ reduced cost base adjustment.
Tax-exempted amount and CGT-concession amounts do not affect your cost base or reduced cost base.
reduced cost base-add the tax-deferred amounts and the tax-free amounts and deduct the total from the reduced cost base.
Generally, you make any adjustment to the cost base or reduced cost base of your unit or trust interest at the end of the income year. However, if some other CGT event happens to the unit or trust interest during the year (for example, you sell your units) you must adjust the cost base or reduced cost base just before the time of that CGT event. The amount of the adjustment is based on the amount of non-assessable payments paid to you up to the date of sale. You use the adjusted cost base or reduced cost base to work out your capital gain or capital loss (see chapter 2 for more information).
The cost base and reduced cost base adjustments are more complex if you deducted capital losses from a grossed-up capital gain where a capital gain made by the trust was reduced by the small business 50 per cent active asset reduction. If this applies to you, you may need to seek advice from the ATO on how to make the adjustments.
If the tax-deferred amount is greater than the cost base of your unit or trust interest, you include the excess as a capital gain. You can use the indexation method if you bought your units or trust interest before 21 September 1999. However, if you do so, you cannot use the discount method to work out your capital gain when you later sell the units or trust interest.

(VEN) - With a favorable geographical location, adequate transport facilities, and a good business environment, Quang Tri Province could prove an attractive destination for investors. The locality will be provided with VND15 trillion of credit to finance socioeconomic development projects. It will organize an investment promotion conference this November to announce a number of new investment projects that are waiting for capital.
In late October in Hanoi, the Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV) and Quang Tri Province held a meeting with potential investors to prepare for the conference. The Quang Tri Province People’s Committee will coordinate with BIDV and the Ministry of Planning and Investment to organize this event.
Quang Tri is located in the north-central region, with National Highways 1 and 9 running through the province. Its Lao Bao International Border Crossing is part of the East-West Economic Corridor. Quang Tri has many advantages in terms of geographical location and adequate transport facilities connecting the province with other localities nationwide. This allows the province to develop industries such as mining and mineral processing, electricity, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, marine economy, and tourism.
Last year Quang Tri ranked first with 39.74 points on the Vietnam Provincial Governance and Public Administration Performance Index (PAPI). The province offers a good business and investment environment and allows investors to implement administrative procedures quickly via one-stop mechanisms. It offers investors the highest level preferences allowed by the government. The province also assists investors in site clearance, worker training, and building infrastructure for projects that are not based in industrial and economic zones.
Quang Tri Provincial Party Committee Secretary Nguyen Van Hung said that in recent years the province has attracted large investment projects including an MDF wood processing mill, a Hanoi beer factory, the expansion of the Hoa Tho-Dong Ha garment factory, a factory producing energy pills, and Muong Thanh Hotel. However, the investment attraction results remain incommensurate with the province’s potential and advantages. The prime minister recently signed a decision to establish the Southeast Quang Tri Economic Zone with My Thuy Seaport and a 1,200MW thermoelectric plant with total investment of US$2.26 billion from the EGAT International Company Limited (EGATI) under the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand. Before that, the prime minister signed a decision to upgrade the La Lay National Border Crossing into an international border crossing, opening a new way to attract investors and tourists from Northeast Thailand and South Laos into Vietnam.
To attract investment, Quang Tri Province has made a list of 18 projects calling for investment in 2015. These projects are in trade, tourism, processing, and electricity, with total capital of about VND87 trillion, including large, highly feasible tourism projects such as hotels and resorts along Cua Tung and Cua Viet beaches, a golf course in Huong Hoa District, and the Truong Son service and tourist site.
Quang Tri’s advantages and favorable mechanisms have attracted investors. However, to improve the quality and effectiveness of investment, the province needs to take specific measures. According to BIDV Chairman Tran Bac Ha, the province needs to concentrate on building and developing an economic axis connecting the Southeast Quang Tri Economic Zone with the East-West Economic Corridor, the La Lay Border Crossing Economic Zone, and the Cua Viet, Cua Tung, and Con Co Island tourist sites; making plans to develop pasture and cattle raising areas and creating new tourism products based on Quang Tri’s advantages. Special attention needs to be paid to adjusting existing plans in the context of Vietnam’s deepening integration into the global economy; reforming administrative procedures in fields related to investment attraction, import, export, exit and entry via the Lao Bao International Border Crossing, Ha emphasized.
The Binh Ha Breeding Joint Stock Company wanted Quang Tri Province to give more land for cattle breeding. Vingroup revealed their intention to survey Con Co Island to seek opportunities for investment in tourism development, so they wanted to learn about the province’s policy in this field. The Hoa Tho Textile and Garment Joint Stock Corporation has a plan to build a new factory in Cam Lo District and requested the province to assist it in building accommodations for workers.
Tran Bac Ha added that BIDV would consider providing VND15 trillion in credit for Quang Tri Province to finance socioeconomic development projects in the 2016-2020 period, concentrating on seafood processing, trade, services, and energy industry.
Quang Tri is willing to create favorable conditions for businesses to invest in the province. It has pledged to hand over hundreds of hectares of land to businesses which have feasible projects and are committed to ensuring their effectiveness. | 2019-04-20T15:04:32Z | http://ven.vn/quang-tri-waiting-for-investors-19242.html |

Jason's mother was raped and became pregnant with him when she was 15 years old. Jason was born into a Christian family where abortion is not an option, no matter what the circumstances. It was clear that this baby, Jason, was to have life and to live it in glory to the Lord.

Digital transformation has a guiding principle: to apply new analytic and cognitive models to achieve “actionable” intelligence.
We work toward generating “actionable” intelligence in real time by applying artificial intelligence with analytical and cognitive models based on sources of newly available data for companies.
A decisive factor in remaining competitive is to incorporate data analysis that originates from diverse sources such as social media, sensors and call centres in the decision making process.
As a result, the capacity that a company has to identify, process and analyze that data is a key success factor which requires transforming companies’ current business models, operational models and technological models.
What data is important for the company’s business.
How to access and verify its sources.
How to gain value with analysis models.
How to adapt processes to the information.
How to present the results in order to visualise, exploit and connect them.
This new flow of information also requires a structural transformation within companies. The weight of intuition in the decision-making process will be replaced by analysis. New business opportunities will emerge from the information that has been obtained and its possibilities. New areas of expertise in data and analytics will be created, which should have a deep understanding of the business and of the possibilities that technology gives us.
The results obtained from data analysis will operate dynamically on the operational and business processes of the company. The data, now a valuable asset, will have specialized organisational structures in its governing bodies and management. A paradigm shift will take place in technological companies, which will accelerate the adoption of new technologies. | 2019-04-19T01:22:46Z | https://www.everis.com/global/en/industries/everis-data-cognitive |
Building a website is no laughing matter especially in the world of this ever-increasing competition. Moreover, if your website does not have the appropriate design and functionality, you are just playing in the dark. Though WordPress has opened gates for many new bloggers and webmasters, it can’t always help you do everything you want with your website. And for a matter of fact, it is a great thing because if WordPress was able to do everything, every webmaster would just stick with the same old thing.
Fortunately, WordPress offers a variety of themes and plugins to choose from that help you improve the appearance and extend the functionality of your website and of course, keep it different at the same time.
But how many plugins are too many?
Since WordPress has so much to offer in regards to plugins, we often end up using a lot. This usually leads to poor performance and slower loading speed of your website. And slow loading speed means decreased conversion rates and ROI. The loading speed of your website plays an important role in determining its search engine rankings by the search engine giant Google (with its latest proclamation that it considers load times in its search engine algorithms).
There are various plugins that are actually too heavy for sites and therefore, it is always suggested to use as little as possible. You can narrow down your list of WordPress plugins by cutting down on unnecessary and heavy plugins.
Plugins are here to help you extend the functionality of your website and not to make your websites slow and poor performing. However, it also depends on your usage. The less the better!
We have been building websites for past many years and helped many clients to establish their online presence using WordPress. We have built our fair share of sites and also tested many plugins. Therefore, we are able to build our own list of essential plugins. The list consists of plugins that increase conversions, save time, speed up the site loading time, help back up site and content and also improve the user experience.
There are more than 80,000 WordPress plugins available in the WordPress plugin directory. And there is always an alternative, a plugin which might be right for one webmaster may not be right for another.
Therefore, instead of compiling a list of must-have’s or essential plugins, we are going to share the type of plugins that are necessary for every website and with the best alternatives for you.
If your website takes forever to load, you are surely losing a lot of potential customers for your business. As a matter of fact, web users are very impatient, thanks to a variety of options available online. Moreover, a recent research has shown that one-second delay can lead to 3% drop in conversions. Average web users expect a website to load in not more than 3 to 5 seconds. Even Google has also proclaimed that it considers page load speed as an important factor to index a website and determine its search engine rankings.
There are basically two main plugins for speeding up your website load time.
W3 Total Cache is one of the best solutions available for you that drastically improves your website’s page load times. The plugin comes with a wide variety of advanced features and makes it much more than just a cache plugin.
WP Super Cache is certainly an amazing alternative to W3 Total Cache plugin. Though the plugin does not offer the same features as that of W3 Total Cache, it is much more straight forward and offers fewer options to tweak.
Online success comes with a pain and that is spam comments. Beginners often find themselves stuck in the maze of the comment spam since they see all the comments as genuine but they are not. A majority of comments are often spam. Why spam comments you ask? Well, since building backlinks for a website play a major role in determining its search engine rankings, users with spam sites try to build links through spam comments by putting their own website’s link in the comments. This usually leads to degradation of your website and cause low rankings. Therefore, it becomes more important than ever to get rid of these spam comments to build a strong SERP for your website.
Best plugins to remove these spam comments from your WordPress website.
Akismet is one of the most popular yet valuable plugins that can help you combat spam comments from your website. Akismet is a web-based plugin which is why it is a lot different than other plugins available on the market. The plugin checks comment for any symbol of spam and then let your review the comments if they appear spam. Akismet is free for non-commercial use but charges $9 per month for commercial use.
It is yet another great plugin that has completely changed the way users post comments on WordPress blogs. It was developed to replace the in-built commenting system of WordPress websites. The plugin makes commenting more interactive and a lot easier for the users as well as the webmasters. Disqus is absolutely free to use.
Just like any other software, WordPress is also prone to hacking and security threats. Website security is one of the most important factors that need your constant attention. You would want to wake up the next morning only to realize that your website has been hacked. So, it is always a bright idea to take prior action and make your website as secure as possible.
Best security plugin alternatives for the security of your website.
Formerly iThemes Security was known as Better WP Security. The plugin hardly has any configuration to set up and offers fast installation. iThemes Security is a fairly straightforward plugin that helps you harden the security of your WordPress website.
WordFence is also a different type of plugin that first checks your website for any security attacks. The plugin does a deep server-side check of your source code and compares it to the official WP core repository. WordFence not only secures your website but also makes it 45% much faster.
Having a fully functional and dynamic website is not enough. The purpose of launching a site is to reach a wider audience and attract as many as possible users to your website. However, with the ever-growing competition in the online market, it usually seems near to impossible for beginners to do so. Moreover, there are millions of websites present on the internet and you may find yourself lost in this huge crowd. This usually leads to discouraging your spirit to promote your business online. Instead of getting lost in the crowd, you need to figure out how and from where you can get traffic on your site. The number of traffic on your decides your conversion rate and ROI. Though there are various trustworthy and reliable sources from where you can drive traffic to your website, the best source of constant visitors is search engines. Therefore, you need to make your website stand out in the search engines.
To optimize your website for search engines, WordPress again offers a variety of plugins to help you take care of your website search engine rankings while focusing on business strategies.
It is a great plugin that comes with a range of features to optimize your site and improve its search engine rankings. The plugin lets you generate Meta details about your pages and posts, create XML Sitemaps and offers the ability to add OpenGraph data.
All in One SEO Pack is another popular SEO WordPress plugin that helps websites improve their on-page SEO to multiply the off-page efforts. The plugin has more than 1 million active installations.
Social media platforms are growing at a rapid speed. A majority of web users access the internet only to use social networks these days. According to a recent research, an average number of users spend 95% of their time on social media sites, which clearly indicates the importance of promoting your products and services on social networks.
WordPress also offers plugins to help you share your content on social sites and drive traffic to your website.
As the name suggests, the plugin lets you add a floating social bar to your WordPress website. The plugin supports nearly every social media platform including LinkedIn, Google , Facebook and Twitter. You can also enable the social media counts to encourage users to like and share your content.
Social Warfare is developed to help you drive constant traffic from social media platforms while allowing your visitors to share your content easily. The plugin comes packed with various features to offer better visibility for your business. Social Warfare allows you to even target social platforms such as Pinterest and Instagram to get your images a lot more visibility.

Comes with frame buster plugin to prevent users from putting their own calls-to-action above yours.
Email marketing is growing at a rapid speed. Though it is one of the oldest forms of online marketing, it has recently gained in popularity. In fact, according to a recent survey, many businesses claimed that 27% of their traffic is driven by email marketing only, and the number is growing. Since WordPress is a powerful software, it has also got you covered to boost up your email list.
There are many small and medium size businesses that are always on the lookout for a free tool to grow their email list. If you also want to save money while having the best tool in hand, SumoMe is the right plugin for you. SumoMe is basically a collection of different apps developed to help you drive more traffic to your website. Backed by various features, SumoMe comes with List builder, welcome mat, a smart bar, and scroll box.
Email marketing is one strategy that can’t be done without the right tools since email marketing requires in-depth strategies which are usually extremely difficult to implement. This is where Thrive Leads comes into a picture. Thrive Leads is a great email subscriber plugin that supports a different variety of opt-in form types. The plugin also comes with drag and drop editor that allows you to create your own custom opt-in forms.
WordPress is a powerful and feature-rich content management system that offers various plugins to help you extend the functionality of your website. These plugins can change the performance of your website while allowing you to make the most of your online marketing. Knowing which TYPE of Custom WordPress Plugins you need to use on your website can actually help you cut down the usage of excessive plugins. | 2019-04-26T06:34:22Z | https://www.wordsuccor.com/blog/wordpress-plugins-that-lead-your-wordpress-website-to-the-success/ |

RIO DE JANEIRO — The Olympics are as much about what warms the heart or initiates debate as who wins the medals. But what warms the heart or initiates debate can be a matter of perspective in a sprawling event that brings together more than 200 nations and territories.
There was little division on Tuesday in the Olympic Stadium, when two runners — Abbey D’Agostino of the United States and Nikki Hamblin of New Zealand — offered a helping hand to each other after a collision in the 5,000 meters and then urged each other on to the finish.
“I mean, that girl is the Olympic spirit right there,” Hamblin said afterward, speaking to reporters about D’Agostino.
But on Sunday in the women’s marathon, when the German twins and training partners Anna and Lisa Hahner decided — spontaneously, they insist — to join hands as they crossed the finish line deep in the pack and far from the medals, they quickly drew sharp criticism.
This is not just a German point of view, of course, but it does reflect the range of expectations as athletes navigate the cultural norms that relate to competition and sportsmanship.
The Egyptian judoka Islam El Shehaby, who refused to shake the hand of his Israeli opponent Or Sasson, was following his nation’s standards — one that Olympic officials expressly reject. He was ejected from the Games.
There was no outcry, only amusement, when David Katoatau, an exuberant weight lifter from Kiribati, danced off stage on Monday with the goal of heightening awareness of the threat posed by climate change to his tiny nation in the central Pacific Ocean.
The Hahner twins had no political agenda when they joined hands to end their race, but their move, to their surprise, was still polarizing.
That approach, according to Kurschilgen, is what divides elite sport from mass-participation sport and what he thinks the Hahners failed to grasp.
The twins, who placed 81st and 82nd in the marathon, do not see it that way. Contacted on Monday, they initially declined to speak, but Anna Hahner later sent an email in which she said they had not planned on finishing hand-in-hand and had done their best individually.
Anna said she started faster, and then Lisa’s group caught up with her at around the 17-kilometer mark, at which point Anna said they ran about three kilometers together.
And yet the sisters were well short of their best marathon performances. Anna’s personal best in the marathon is 2 hours 26 minutes 44 seconds. Lisa’s is 2:28.39. In Rio, Anna finished in 2:45.32, and Lisa in 2:45.33 despite coming early to the Olympic city to acclimatize.
Clearly, the large time gap between their previous performances and their Olympic performances made Kurschilgen and others only more convinced that they were not seeing the twins’ best effort.
There is a school of thought at the Olympics and elsewhere that it can be better for an athlete’s profile and even their bottom line to lose memorably — however unintentionally — than to win routinely. D’Agostino and Hamblin would not have become global talking points on Tuesday if they had simply collided and soldiered on without interacting.
Nor would the British runner Derek Redmond have become part of an “Olympic moment” if he had simply won his 400 semifinal at the 1992 Olympics instead of tearing his hamstring and insisting on continuing the race. His father came onto the track to assist him as he hobbled to the finish with the Barcelona crowd cheering him on. Even though Redmond was disqualified for receiving outside aid, the image and the memory were and remain powerful.
It is the unexpected and uncalculated gesture that so often moves the masses most, no matter what the culture.
It is worth noting that the Hahners were not the only twins to finish side by side on Sunday. Kim Hye-song and Kim Hye-gyong of North Korea finished 10th and 11th on Sunday in an identical time of 2:28.36.
No word from North Korea whether this was perceived officially or unofficially as an uncompetitive act.
An earlier version of this article misspelled the name of an island nation in the central Pacific Ocean. It is Kiribati, not Kirabati. | 2019-04-19T22:39:25Z | https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/17/sports/olympics/twins-finish-marathon-hand-in-hand-but-their-country-says-they-crossed-a-line.html?smid=tw-share&_r=1 |

On January 5, three HPA students, Lili Kosa ‘20, Malia McKendry ‘21, and Justus Benz ‘21, along with HPA faculty members, Marc Rice and Laura Jim, embarked upon HPA’s second research expedition to the Republic of Vanuatu. As part of a three-year study the group placed a satellite tag on a post-nesting hawksbill turtle on Moso Island in order to foster a better understanding of the location of their forage grounds and regional connectivity.
Coordinates provided by the tag suggests that she, Pua Lilia, nested again on January 23 and, hopefully, will be departing Vanuatu soon. The previous year’s satellite-tagged turtles migrated to forage grounds in three different locations, New Caledonia, Northern Great Barrier Reef, and Southern Great Barrier Reef. In addition to identifying the foraging grounds and migratory path of the turtles nesting in Vanuatu, HPA students helped to foster community awareness of sea turtle conservation issues and promote the continued study of sea turtles on Moso Island by Ni-Vanuatu. The group participated in a workshop with the villagers of Tassiriki sharing the findings from the previous research trip, as well as the value of conservation.
When not working on the research project or village workshop, the students were able to explore the reefs off Moso Island, snorkeling amongst giant clams, sea anemones, and other marine organisms present in the Indopacific reef system. They also explored the island with a day hike, various SUP sessions, and a boat trip circumnavigating the entire island.
Results from the first year of the project will be presented at the International Sea Turtle Symposium in Charleston, South Carolina in early February by Laura Jim and students Holly Hoffbauer ‘19 and Sara Thiel ‘20. The symposia’s theme, navigating the future, “challenges us to envision future conservation problems before they arise, acquaint ourselves with the emerging frontiers of sea turtle biology, and honor our covenant to the natural world by steering our way toward a bright future for sea turtles and humanity.” Sara and Holly will present their findings in their poster “Post-Nesting Migrations of Hawksbill Turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) nesting at Moso Island, Republic of Vanuatu, as part of the Poster Session. The team looks forward to representing Hawaii Preparatory Academy on this global stage. | 2019-04-25T09:09:57Z | https://www.hpa.edu/news/general/details/~board/general/post/ka-makani-in-vanuatu |

Brera Orologi has outdone itself once again - this time with the ProDiver Collection of beautiful ISO-Certified professional diving instruments. The watch has a 47mm stainless steel (316L) case full of modern-style curves and angles. The extra crown on the outside of the case reminds one of the popular diving watch styles of the ‘60s.
To add to its list of feats, the watch is certified as an official diving instrument by the ISO (International Organization for Standardisation). This is no easy task, as there are a series of rigorous tests to be passed for a timepiece to qualify as one. These collection of watches are magnetic-resistance, shock-resistant, as well as chemical-resistance. The strap is made of highly durable rubber which is both water and pressure-resistant. | 2019-04-22T16:33:06Z | https://altivo.com/products/brera-orologi-prodiver-black-ip-47mm-chronograph-mens-watch-brdv2c4706 |

Chicago, IL — This week, the taxpayers of Chicago were told they would be footing the bill—to the tune of $2.5 million—to pay for an excessive force lawsuit that accused police of holding a 3-year-old little girl at gunpoint while beating her handcuffed mother.
The lawsuit stems from a search warrant carried out in the home of Aretha Simmons in 2013. During the raid, according to the lawsuit, the entire family was severely abused and the 3 year old suffered severe mental trauma — labeled by an expert as “one of the worst cases of child PTSD” he’s seen.
On August 29, 2013, Chicago police executed a search warrant at an inner-city Chicago home in hopes of finding a drug dealer. Cops barged in the home of 3-year-old Davianna Simmons where she lived with her grandparents and mother Aretha Simmons. An officer pointed and held a loaded gun at point-blank range to the chest of 3-year-old Davianna, reports The News and Observer.
During the raid, according to the lawsuit, not only did Simmons allege that police threatened her small daughter with a gun, but she said the girl saw police violently shake and strike Simmons and point a gun at the head of the girl’s grandmother.
According to the lawsuit, while officers were searching the home, Davianna saw and heard an officer damaging and destroying her dolls, other toys and bedroom furniture.
Police were looking for an alleged drug dealer identified as Alonzo McFadden—who was in no way related to the Simmons family and did not live there. The entire raid and abuse were due to a mistake on the address on the warrant.
Over the course of the lawsuit, the city produced thousands of pages of documents that led to allegations of perjury. The documents, according to Simmons’ lawsuit show that the officers were never disciplined for their role in holding a gun to the chest of a toddler, beating her handcuffed mother, and assaulting the grandmother as well.
Not until three years after they escaped accountability for their alleged mistreatment of the Simmons family did officers John O’Keefe and John Wrigley — the officers accused of the crimes in Simmons’ case — lose their police powers. However, it was not for their abuse in 2013.
According to the lawsuit, the officers were caught justifying an arrest with false claims that are similar to claims made in the Simmons case. The Bureau of Internal Affairs allegedly sought out the officers’ firings after deciding they lied under oath at a criminal trial, according to a report from Rare.us.
Simmons lawsuit uncovered a systemic problem of corruption and secrecy within the department exposing how the “city has routinely been producing sanitized personnel files” in response to requests for evidence and court orders, according to Simmons’ lawyer.
The settlement comes at a time when the Chicago police department is under fire for using excessive force against children. In fact, a 2017 Justice Department report lambasted the CPD for the horrible way they have treated children. The city was forced to respond to the report by claiming that they pledge to overhaul police procedures and training.
As the AP points out, a lawyer for Aretha Simmons, the girl’s mother, says some police departments in other U.S. cities have embraced far-reaching reforms on how officers should interact with children. Attorney Al Hofeld Jr. says a key element is for officers to recognize that the brains of small children and teenagers process information differently than those of adults.
Sadly, as is the case in nearly all police brutality instances, the only ones being held accountable for the brutal tactics of the officers are the taxpayers. Illustrating the widespread problem within the department, Simmons’ settlement is one of several lawsuits settled just this week that total $6 million.
Until the officers themselves are held accountable for their own actions, we can expect this problem to remain the same. As for the little girl, who is now 8 years old, we are told that she will expect a lifetime of therapy for the traumatic abuse she suffered at the hands of Chicago’s finest. No amount of money will ever heal that wound. | 2019-04-23T04:59:21Z | https://www.activistpost.com/2018/06/taxpayers-shell-out-2-5-million-after-cop-held-3yo-girl-at-gunpoint-as-he-beat-her-handcuffed-mom.html |

Modem-HOWTO: Serial Port Devices /dev/ttyS4, (or /dev/ttys/4) etc.
9. Serial Port Devices /dev/ttyS4, (or /dev/ttys/4) etc.
9.1 Serial Port Names: ttyS4, tts/2, etc.
Once upon a time the names of the serial ports were simple. Except for some multiport serial cards they were named /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, etc. Then around the year 2000 came the USB bus with names like /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyACM1 (for the ACM modem on the USB bus).
A little later with kernel 2.4 came the "device file system" (devfs) with a whole new set of names for everything. The use of the device file system was optional and many still continued using the old system. Then in 2003-4, it was claimed that devfs had unsolvable problems and will be replaced with what's called "udev". Although udev doesn't provide all the functionality of devfs it does handle hot plugging. With all this confusion, most distributions use neither devfs nor udev.
If you use devfs or udev, ttyS1 becomes tts/1, ttyUSB1 becomes /usb/tts/1, and ttyACM1 is /usb/acm/1. Note that the the number 1 above is just an example. It could be replaced by 0, 2, 3, 4, etc. One may use devfs but have the conventional names linked (via symlinks) to the new names. So they use the new system with the old names but may also use some of the new names for some devices. It's even possible ?? to use the new names for the old (non-devfs) system.
Since DOS provided for 4 serial ports on the old ISA bus: COM1-COM4, ttyS0-ttyS3 (tts/0-tts/3) most serial ports on the newer PCI bus use higher numbers such as ttyS4 (tts/4) or ttyS14 (tts/14) for kernel 2.6. This permits one to have both ISA serial ports and PCI serial ports on the same PC with no name conflicts. 0-3 are reserved for the old ISA bus and 4-upward (or 14-upward) are used for PCI. It's not required to be this way but it often is. On-board serial ports on motherboards which have both PCI and ISA slots are likely to still be ISA ports. Even for all-PCI-slot motherboards, the serial ports are often not PCI. They are either ISA, on an internal ISA bus or on a LPC bus which is intended for slow legacy I/O devices: serial/parallel ports and floppy drives.
In kernel 2.4 the devfs was created only to be obsoleted in favor of udev in kernel 2.6. devfs creased a new system of device naming which was continued with udev. The naming system makes it easier to deal with a huge number of devices. But there's also a popular option to continue using the old names. However, a new device may not have an old-style name so then one must use the new name. For a detailed description of devfs see: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/docs/devfs.html Also see the kernel documentation tree: filesystems/devfs.
Some more examples of devfs names: ttyS2 becomes tts/2 (Serial port), tty3 becomes vc/3 (Virtual Console), ptyp1 becomes pty/m1 (PTY master), ttyp2 becomes pty/s2 (PTY slave). "tts" looks like a directory which contains devices "files": 0, 1, 2, etc. All of these new names should still be in the /dev directory although optionally one may put them elsewhere.
For devfs, device names in the /dev directory are created automatically by the corresponding driver. Thus, if serial support comes from a module and that module isn't loaded yet, there will not be any serial devices in the /dev directory. This can be confusing: you physically have serial ports but don't see them in the /dev directory. However, if a device name is told to a communication program and the serial module isn't loaded, the kernel is supposed to try to find a driver for it and create a name for it in the /dev directory.
This is works OK if it finds a driver. But suppose there is no driver found for it. For example, if you try to use "setserial" to configure a port that the driver failed to detect, it claims there is no such port. How does one create a devfs port in this case?
Before the device file system, devices in Linux had major and minor numbers. The serial port ttySx (x=0,1,2, etc.) was major number 4. You could see this (and the minor numbers too) by typing: "ls -l ttyS*" in the /dev directory. To find the old device names for various devices, see the "devices" file in the kernel documentation.
There formerly was a "cua" name for each serial port and it behaved just a little differently. For example, ttyS2 would correspond to cua2. It was mainly used for modems. The cua major number was 5 and minor numbers started at 64. You may still have the cua devices in your /dev directory but they are now deprecated. For details see Modem-HOWTO, section: cua Device Obsolete.
For creating the old devices in the device directory see: the Serial-HOWTO: "Creating Devices In the /dev directory".
Dos/Windows use the COM name while the messages from the serial driver use ttyS00, ttyS01, etc. Older serial drivers (2001 ?) used just tty00, tty01, etc.
The tables below shows some examples of serial device names. The IO addresses are the default addresses for the old ISA bus (not for the newer PCI and USB buses). The major/minor numbers aren't needed for the devfs, but they often exist anyway just in case the devfs method of locating drivers can't be used.
For more info see the usb subdirectory in the kernel documentation directory for files: usb-serial, acm, etc.
On some installations, two extra devices will be created, /dev/modem for your modem and /dev/mouse for a mouse. Both of these are symbolic links to the appropriate serial device in /dev which you specified during the installation Except if you have a bus mouse, then /dev/mouse will point to the bus mouse device).
Historical note: Formerly (in the 1990s) the use of /dev/modem was discouraged since lock files might not realize that it was really say /dev/ttyS2. The newer lock file system doesn't fall into this trap so it's now OK to use such links.
Each ttyS device has a corresponding cua device. But the cua device is deprecated so it's best to use ttyS (unless cua is required). There is a difference between cua and ttyS but a savvy programmer can make a ttyS port behave just like a cua port so there is no real need for the cua anymore. Except that some older programs may need to use the cua.
What's the difference? The main difference between cua and ttyS has to do with what happens in a C-program when an ordinary "open" command tries to open the port. If a cua port has been set to check modem control signals, the port can be opened even if the CD modem control signal says not to. Astute programming (by adding additional lines to the program) can force a ttyS port to behave this way also. But a cua port can be more easily programmed to open for dialing out on a modem even when the modem fails to assert CD (since no one has called into it and there's no carrier). That's why cua was once used for dial-out and ttyS used for dial-in.
Starting with Linux kernel 2.2, a warning message is put in the kernel log when one uses cua. This is an omen that cua is defunct and should be avoided if possible. | 2019-04-23T09:04:30Z | http://linux.math.tifr.res.in/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO-9.html |

Mark Rabkin VP of Core Ads at Facebook revealed a few tips and tricks for advertising in the mobile era. Rabkin pointed out that a mobile phone should not be classified as a tiny TV, just as TV wasn’t visual radio and radio wasn’t an audible newspaper. The company suggests that mobile must be recognized for what it is: a new medium that demands new content grounded in experiences that are native to the platform like speed, choice and relevance.
Facebook tracked the activity of 537 people who said they watched the season premiere of a popular TV show. During every commercial break, their use of Facebook went up.
The big difference between viewing content on a smartphone V.S. television is the freedom. Smartphones are not limited to a room and a power outlet, but instead are free to go wherever its owner travels, and often do. Additionally, people are in full control of what they see, where and when they want to see it. And they’re exercising that ability at all times. Mobile has trained people to choose what’s relevant to them, consume what matters to them and move on.
According to Rabkin, people scroll through mobile News Feed 41% faster than desktop News Feed. And when videos start to autoplay on Facebook people watch them for 16.7 seconds on average. This is similar with video ads, which are watched in News Feed for 5.7 seconds on average.
It makes sense that because people can watch virtually anything at any time, they’re only going to watch ads that grab their attention, reward their time.
So in a new mobile era what’s the best way forward for mobile video ads? How can advertisers take charge of the complexity of this new, fragmented space? Facebook points to some of its most successful advertisers on its site, Nestle to AirBnb to Ubisoft, for examples.
Re-organize to test and measure ads on a weekly cycle, not every 6 months. Build organizations that can deliver quality creative inexpensively and on short notice. Align creative, measurement, and media teams to connect and work together as a single team. This can be a formidable challenge, but mobile is evolving too quickly for a traditional, fragmented approach to work well.
Transparency is paramount. To create fantastic new stories for the complex landscape of mobile formats, marketers must understand every nuance of consumer behavior, with detailed insights provided by the publisher — including Facebook — not just top-line metrics.
Measurement tools must evolve. Mobile platforms like Facebook must help advertisers compare and very rapidly evaluate the impact of each new mobile format — for brands, direct response, and hybrids of both. | 2019-04-18T22:20:53Z | https://www.thewrap.com/members/2017/06/08/tips-and-tricks-from-mark-rabkin-vp-of-core-ads-at-facebook-on-video-advertising-in-the-mobile/ |

This scabiosa flower (also called pincushion flower) has beautiful white petals (sometimes with just a hint of ivory) and a pale green button center. It’s a fun bloom that matches any color scheme and scabiosa makes a great complimentary flower for a bridal bouquet or group several stems together in a simple bud vase for a just picked from the garden look.
Scabiosa bloom size can vary but typically range from 1.5” to 2” across. Each stem has at least one main bloom and typically several off shoots of smaller blooms that do not fully mature. If you’re ordering these for an event, we recommend getting white scabiosa delivered 2 days before your event date so the blooms have time to fully hydrate. Please note that on arrival, it’s perfectly normal for scabiosa blooms to look a little limp and tired. They just need some time in water to perk up and the stems do have a natural downward curve. With proper care and handling, the average vase life is approximately 3-5 days. | 2019-04-20T12:15:06Z | http://www.flowermuse.com/types-of-flowers/scabiosa/white-scabiosa.html |

Dyson started with one man and one idea – a vacuum cleaner without a bag. Frustrated by his existing vacuum and inspired by the cyclonic separation he observed at a local saw mill, James Dyson conceived the idea of cyclone technology.
After licensing and manufacturing battles and 5,127 prototypes, James went it alone and launched the world’s first bagless vacuum in 1993. Within 18 months, it became the best-selling vacuum in the UK.
Twenty years later, Dyson machines are available in 72 countries worldwide. We employ over 4000 people; a third of whom are engineers and scientists. We remain market-leaders in the UK, and also in the US, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Western Europe and Canada.
We may be bigger now, but Dyson remains close to its engineering roots. We are about “wrong-thinking” – looking at things in a different way, and inventing new solutions to old problems. We are relentless perfectionists that persevere until we get it just right. And we are passionate about new technology.
We like engineering challenges: hand driers that use 400mph sheets of air to dry hands, cordless vacuum cleaners that perform like corded ones, and a revolutionary new digital motor which is at the heart of many of these machines.
And we’re ambitious. Dyson is a household name in the UK, where 1 in 3 households own a Dyson. And with a 25-year year plan for new technology, we have a number of exciting new categories planned for 2015 onward. | 2019-04-25T18:12:12Z | https://www.bssa.org.uk/view_profile.php?id=3474 |
Back in January, I stumbled my way through a brief study of the relationship between Texas Rangers wins and attendance. The end result was the following graph. The yellow dot on the graph marks the 2008 attendance level, and the red dot marks the 2008 win level.
2009 Attendance Prediction. For a full description, read the original article (link at top).
The Texas Rangers won 87 games in 2009, and the 2009 attendance numbers for Major League Baseball were compiled by Maury Brown in early October.
The model I prepared says that 87 wins should be worth an average attendance of 27,958. According to the data gathered and prepared for the Brown article, the average attendance of Texas Rangers home games in 2009 was 27,641. A difference of only 317 attendees per game translates to an overshot of only +1.15%.
As much as I would like to pat myself on the back for this, I have to acknowledge the extreme amount of luck involved with the startling accuracy of my prediction.
The line in the graph marks the raw estimate based on the information provided by the model. At any given point on the line, the standard error says that the attendance level could be 2,646 higher or lower than the line.
The luck of this season will definitely narrow the standard error of the 2010 model. Look for the 2010 model some time in February as the new season approaches.
If you haven't read the original article (or if you're into economics and data modeling) and you have 10-15 minutes to kill, I suggest giving it a read: Texas Rangers Win-Curve Part I: Wins vs Attendance. | 2019-04-24T00:56:09Z | http://www.texasleaguers.com/blog/2009/11/7/2009-texas-rangers-win-curve-revisited.html |
*originally posted October 2010 For our third craft project, we were asked to create something with real or fake pumpkins. No problem right? Yeah. That’s what I thought. And then I realized that every possible thing under the sun has already been done with pumpkins. It’s one of those moments where you have to shrug and mumble “oh well” before forging ahead.
I decided to use my Thanksgiving place card craft from last year as a jumping off point.
Instructions: Scan old family photos into computer. Open photos in a basic program for photo viewing and adjustment (for example, Microsoft Picture Manager or Photoshop). If the photos are in color, adjust the saturation levels until the photo is black and white. Using same program (or something similar to Microsoft Paint or Photoshop), use the “text” feature to type the name of the person across the bottom of the picture.
Insert toothpick halfway into foam pumpkins. Affix the photo to the top of the toothpick with tape. Place on plate and you’re ready for dinner!
*If pre-glittered foam pumpkins are not available, use plain foam pumpkins and apply spray glue and glitter. It will probably take three to four applications to get a heavy concentration of glitter. | 2019-04-26T01:46:52Z | https://elizabeth-harrell.com/2010/10/25/mabels-house-re-post-better-homes-and-gardens-project-3-pumpkin-place-cards/ |

Japanese chef knives are some of the best knives available in the world. A lot of skill and mastery goes into the manufacturing of knives in Japan. What you may not know as a Western cook who is just looking into the world of Japanese cutlery, is that there are many types and styles of Japanese knives. The variations make it difficult for a newbie to choose the best Japanese chef knives for their own kitchen.
Being a frequent traveler, and having visited Japan myself, I know that a lot of people who visit Japan put finding and buying top-quality Japanese kitchen knives at the top of their list of things to do while there.
Of course, there are a number of shops in tourist areas of Japan, including Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka, where you’ll find a huge assortment of Japanese kitchen knives just waiting to be taken home with you, but if you don’t go into the experience with at least a little knowledge about what to look for when purchasing a Japanese chef knife, you have a high probability of walking away with the wrong one for you.
We’ve put together a list of important criteria to look for when you choose the best Japanese chef knife. Once you’ve read through this list, you’ll be more familiar with the types of Japanese kitchen knives that are available and you’ll be primed and ready to purchase one that suits you.
Keep in mind when looking for a knife that not all of them are created equal. To be blunt, a lot of knives that are called “Japanese” knives are actually manufactured in China, using the same method as a Japanese knife. There is a difference. If you’re looking for the highest quality, top of the line materials and construction, you should make sure the knife is manufactured in Japan. The knives in the chart below are all manufactured in Japanese and are some of the best knives you can easily purchase without traveling there yourself.
However, that doesn’t mean knives that are manufactured in China are bad. If you can’t afford an expensive Japanese knife, these lower-cost knives can be a great way to try a Japanese style knife and see how you like them. Below, you’ll find 4 options of Japanese-style knives that don’t have the hefty price tag of the high-end Japanese knives, but are still very good, high-quality knives.
If you don’t have time to read all of the reviews in order to make a decision, this comparison chart should make it easy for you to quickly see the knife options and their main features.
First off, let’s clear up one thing that will quickly narrow down the field of choices. I mentioned before that there are many different styles of Japanese knives, but the one you will likely use most frequently is a gyuto. Gyoto is the basic equivalent of a Western chef’s knife. They generally range from 210mm to 270mm in length, though you’ll find some that are shorter and longer. They have a very similar style to what you’re probably used to in a chef’s knife. Unless you’re specifically looking for a sushi knife or a fish knife, it’s a gyuto you’ll be looking for. I personally like a smaller knife blade, somewhere around a 180mm is equivalent to a Western utility knife.
Read this guide on cheftalk.com to learn more specifics about Japanese knives.
If you’ve already decided to purchase a Japanese chef knife, you likely already know the differences between Western and Japanese knives, but for those who don’t, we’ll quickly go over it.
Japanese knife makers have a tough task. They produce knives for chefs who spend their lives perfecting one specialized craft, which usually requires expert knife skills and great precision. Without the perfect knife, they wouldn’t be able to reach the level of mastery they do. For this reason, Japanese knives are quite a bit different than Western knifes. However, many Japanese knife brands have begun to build Western-style knives for Western chefs, so you need to be aware of the differences or you may end up with a Western-style knife made by a Japanese manufacturer.
Read more about German knives and how they differ from Japanese knives.
One of the main differences between Western and Japanese knives is hardness. Japanese knives are harder, which gives them a few advantages over softer knives. The harder the steel, the more narrow of an edge it can sustain, thus Japanese knives typically have a 15 (or less)-degree angle, rather than a 20-degree angle. The hardness also allows the knife to hold a sharp edge longer. The softer blade of a Western knife has a tendency to bend or fold over slightly with use, requiring more frequent honing and sharpening. Needing to sharpen the knife more often will eventually lead to shorter life span for your knives. It’s ideal to use a whetstone to sharpen Japanese knives, but there are a few electric knife sharpeners that are made for Asian knives.
However, hardness can also be a con for the Japanese knives, because it causes them to be more brittle. Dropping the knife could lead to significant damage and if you’re in the habit of throwing your knives into the sink, the blade could easily chip. You can’t use the knife to crack through bones like you can a softer Western knife.
Western knives have a symmetrical bevel, meaning they are sharpened on both sides of the blade. Japanese knives tend only to be sharp on one side of the blade. The single bevel gives it the ability to be sharper. As already mentioned, the edge on a Japanese knife is often 15-degrees of less, while the Western style rarely goes below an 18-degree edge. These days it’s become easier to find Japanese knifes with a dual edge, but in many cases the edges are still not symmetrical.
Again, due to the hardness factor, Japanese knifes can be built thinner and lighter than their counterpart that must be thicker to be sturdy. If you want a lightweight knife that can slice through things like butter, with very little effort, the Japanese knife will suit you well. Western knives tend to be heavier and bulkier. The knife weight lends itself to the cutting process, where as the Japanese knife doesn’t require as much pressure to cut.
For the typical home cook, a stainless steel Japanese knife is recommended over a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel has a tendency to rust when they aren’t throughly dried, or if food is left on them. For this reason, carbon steel knifes require a lot more care and vigilance than stainless steel. Of course, if you have no problem keeping your knives clean and dry all the time, there are benefits to carbon steel, such as staying sharp longer. Both of these materials are better than ceramic knives, which can’t really be sharpened.
Cost may or may not be a factor for you, depending on how much you are willing to spend. Japanese chef’s knives cost on average $150. You can find ones that are less and more, obviously. But if you’re willing to spend around $150, you can find a very nice, high-end Japanese chef’s knife that will last for a very long time.
An 8-to 8.5-inch chef’s knife is the typical and most preferred size for every day tasks in the kitchen, but you may find other lengths available too. How do you choose which is right for you? I think you have to try them out to be sure which one you like best. If you have smaller hands, you might prefer a smaller blade. You can’t really know until you try it. But it’s recommended to start out with an 8-inch blade.
The tang refers to the way the blade is attached to the handle. You’ll hear this said as either full tang or push tang. A full tang means the knife blade runs the full length of the handle. This can sometimes indicate better quality because it’s possible that the blade may come lose from the handle on a knife with a push tang, but when considering higher-end knives, it’s likely not going to be a concern, just personal preference. In Japanese knives, it’s not as important to consider the tang of a knife, because it is crafted differently, with the blade and the handle being two pieces that are welded together.
The handles of Japanese knives are often made of wood which won’t become slippery when wet, as many of the Western knives with plastic fitted handles will. The wood is fine-grained and porous to hold its shape and improve grip. The general shapes are chestnut (frequently called “D”) and octagon, with a tapering to be slightly larger at the tail end.
Cladding refers to a knife that has been wrapped. For instance, the core of the knife is carbon steel, which has been wrapped in another metal like stainless steel. These are easier to take care of than a full carbon steel knife. Many Japanese knives are clad in a style called Damascus (or Suminagashi), which adds a swirl design to the outside of the knife. The cladding doesn’t necessarily offer any benefit, but you do want to be aware of the layers and the type of steel used.
As mentioned above, many Japanese knives now come with dual edges, though not necessarily symmetrical. This will be an issue for left-handed people. You’ll want to check the edge in this case, to be sure that the cutting edge faces the right directly for you. If you’d rather have a single-edged knife, you will also need to take care to look for this specifically on the knives you’re considering.
A Japanese chefs knife should be made in Japan, right? Most of them are, but some are not. Of course if you’re buying the knife in Japan, you shouldn’t need to worry about this. But if you’re buying a knife online, you should check to make sure. Some are made with Japanese materials that have been imported into another country (like China) to be made cheaper. Want Japan quality? Then buy only Japanese knives.
If you have a chance to travel to Japan to look for a knife, that’s the best possible way to find one that fits you. I had the opportunity to look at knives in Tokyo in Tsukiji Market and when I saw “the knife” I knew it was the one for me instantly. Even if you don’t believe in kismet with a knife, you will have a chance to talk to the shop owner about the knife, tell them exactly what you want (now that you’ve learned everything about Japanese knives!) and they can help you make a wise purchase. There are knife shops all over Japan, but of course it will be easiest to find them in the major cities – Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto.
One particular shop I like in Tokyo is Kamata. They have both hand-made and factory-made knives to suit all budgets, and they’re beautiful. You can stop by the store if you’re in Tokyo, or you can even order online and have the knives shipped to you. Tsukiji Masamoto is another option in Tokyo, if you’re already going to be in Tsukiji Market.
In Osaka, you can find a really fantastic selection of knives at Tower Knives (easy to get to by train), they are open from 10am-6pm and regularly receive foreign guests, so no need to worry about a language barrier. Osaka is known as the kitchen capital of Japan. There is a whole street devoted to kitchen and restaurant supplies, called Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street. If you can’t find a knife there, you aren’t looking very hard.
In Kyoto, the best place for tourists to find knives is in Nishiki Market: plus, it’s really fun to walk around. There’s a store there called Aritsugu. There are more than 400 knives on display there, so even if you’re not in the market for a knife, it’s a really cool place to explore.
If you’re thinking about planning a Japan trip, but don’t know where to start, we recommend thinking about a guided tour. The company Japan and More offers a fully escorted 8-day Intro to Japan Tour that’s perfect for experiencing the best of Japan. The itinerary covers Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, and Nagoya, plus the mountain village of Takayama. The cost of the tour includes all accommodations, transportation, entrance fees, some meals, and pre-departure help and advice. The tour group is small, at just 8 people, so you won’t feel like you’re stuck on a bus or anything. They actually have three different tours that depart throughout the year.
Going to Japan on a guided tour is beneficial because the guides can help you navigate the world of Japanese knives and find the right places to buy where you won’t be taken advantage of as a tourist. You may also want to read our guide on taking a cooking vacation in Japan.
It would be great if everyone could go to Japan to pick out their favorite chef’s knife for themselves, but that’s not very practical. Instead, we have to find good options at home that we can trust. Below are a few of our favorite Japanese chef knifes that are available to purchase from the comfort of home – no flight necessary.
The Shun Premier Chef’s Knife is a really good place to start. If this is your first Japanese chef’s knife, and you don’t have the time or want to put in too much time researching the options, then you can make a safe bet on this knife. It’s a good all-purpose knife for chopping, slicing and dicing. The knife has an 8-inch blade and a slightly contoured Pakkawood handle in a walnut finish that is NSF certified. The handle is symmetrical so it can be used by either a right-handed or left-handed person.
is also a great buy for Shun fans who don’t want to pay quite this high of a price.
The Yoshihiro Chef’s Knife is a very nice looking knife. It has a VG-10 stainless steel core clad with 16 layers of hammered Damascus steel. It is a full tang blade encased in a mahogany wood handle. The curved blade makes it great for chopping and cutting with a rocking motion. This knife has a 15-degree blade that is standard for most Japanese-style knives.
This knife is not mass produced in a factory, like others are. It is 100% handcrafted in Japan. One of the things I like the most about Yoshihiro is that it also comes in a 7-inch version, in case you want a smaller blade, or have smaller hands.
Out of these four Japanese Chef Knives, the Koto brand knife is the only one that is not made in Japan. It is made in China with Japanese materials, which helps bring the price down, but doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s of lessor quality. The Koto knife is a very good quality knife, especially for the price, and is a good alternative if you can’t afford the pricier options.
The knife is made with VG-10 Super Steel and is clad with 67 layers of high carbon steel, which has been imported from Japan. It has a Damascus pattern. The handle is made with black Pakkawood and has a slight curve to give a better grip. The blade has an 8 to 12-degree edge and it is full tang.
The Miyabi Kaizen is crafted from VG10 super steel with a 64-layer flower Damascus pattern and was handmade in Seki, Japan. Miyabi’s process is to put the blades through an ice-hardening process that improves the strength and flexibility of the blade and makes it corrosion resistant. The edges are then hand-finished using the three-step honbazuke blade-honing technique that is supposed to give it a longer lasting edge. The edge has a 9 to 12 degree angle.
The handle of the Miyabi Kaizen is made of a durable black linen Micarta in a D-shape that has a slight pattern on it to improve the grip. The Miyabi knives come with a lifetime guarantee and should last for a very long time if properly cared for.
There is a lot of information you need to make a smart decision on which Japanese chefs knives to buy, but now that you’ve read through our guide, you should be able to make a much more informed decision. We hope you end up with a great knife that will last you a lifetime! If you’re looking to stock your kitchen with better, higher-quality knives, we have a whole guide on how to fill your knife block.
Ceramic knives can be sharpened but only with a diamond sharpening plate. An Edge Pro, or other clone fixed angle sharpener can be used with a wide assortment of stones and diamond plates.
Thanks Pia. We have an article all about sharpening ceramic knives too!

From the early days of the discovery of radio emission from carbon monoxide it was realized that it offered unusual potential for under- standing the chemical evolution of the Galaxy and external galaxies through measurements of molecular isotopes. These results bear on stellar nucleosynthesis, star formation, and gases in the interstellar medium. Progress in isotopic radio measurements will be reviewed. | 2019-04-19T18:41:25Z | https://trs.jpl.nasa.gov/handle/2014/30859 |

Today my client was a hyperactive - cheeky - mouthy young lady!! Jumping up - lots of 'social graces' to be learned - and pure pedigree German Shepherd and at three months old was definitely in need of some training!!
German Shepherds are very intelligent dogs but also need to be kept both mentally and physically stimulated and active as can in latter years suffer from hip problems if not regularly exercised. It is very sad to see this magnificent breed when they have been kept as 'security dogs' kept in small contained areas or chained and put out on industrial plants as 'guard dogs' - with such limited exercise and movement they lead a lonely and isolated life often ending their lives early and suffer hip dysplasia.
Will be going back in 10 days to see how 'guardians' and 'Sheba is doing and see who is training who!
First Dog Surgery in Queens Park Westminster opened this monday - giving advice on neutering/spaying, getting a new dog and all aspects of being a responsible 'dog owner'.
This Dog Surgery will be fortnightly and between 2pm and 3.30pm and FREE to all members of Queens Park Ward and Harrow Road Ward. Also non dog owners are welcome to voice their views both negative and positive on how 'dog owners' and their dogs affect their enjoyment of public spaces and environmental issues regarding dogs mess left on the streets of both Westminster wards.
I think it is important to have someone and somewhere to go to seek advice regarding dogs especially when living in a multi culture community where sometimes the smallest dog can seem to be intimidating if not under proper control. Also there are new laws regarding dog legislation being updated on a regular basis especially for 'bull breeds' and owners should be kept informed of these laws and advised on the Dog Control Act.
In Westminster wards it is against the law to have your dog not on a leash if in a public place that is not an 'assigned dog area' - a fine can be imposed for this and also for not picking up after your dog - these fines can be issued by a dog warden - an environmental warden and a police officer. Also if your dog is reported or seen to be acting in an antisocial manner or left unattended in a public place - it can be siezed and if it is a 'bull breed type' can be taken under the BSL and kept in a unknown location to be assessed.
You also might need advice on basic puppy training or you have just adopted a rescue dog from the local shelter @mayhewanimalhome or alldogsmatteruk - also any local microchipping events or dog classes in the area information will be given out to all dog owners.
So whatever your 'enquiry' is please come along and visit www.canineculture.co.uk for a friendly chat and a cup of coffee!!
Training pups - it is so important to start socialising your young pup as soon as they are fully vaccinated - and if you have just rescued a pup from your local shelter www.mayhewanimalhome.org.uk or dogs trust or any local rescue start socialising them as as possible. I like to call my dog classes 'dog socialising classes' because one of the most important factors of owning a dog is for them to be good with other dogs and familar with the public and their local environment!
Last Sunday I held my third dog training session in Maida Vale W9 in the Dog Area Enclosure in Paddington Recreation Ground. This is an ideal training ground as it has the wide open spaces and also three enclosures to practice 'recall'. I also like my classes to be small - no more than 6 pups or 6 dog owners (to allow for owners with two family pets) - too many dogs in the class can be overwhelming to pups entering the 'Big Bad world of Our's and also gives both owners and pups my full attention!!
This weekend is World Animal Day - the Feast day of St Francis of Assisi - and the Reverand Graham Noyce of St Martins Church Mortimer Road NW10 5SN invites all pet owners and their pets to be blessed at his church. The event starts 2pm at St Martins Church (two minutes from Kensal Green (Bakerloo Line and Overground) Station and Bus No 18 route).
Living near the Notting Hill Carnival - I am happy to say the annual event went really well and the clean up was very efficient!! Chelsea my jack russell was VERY disappointed that the street cleaners did their job so thoroughly - NOT a chicken bone in sight!!!
Also Great news - Tessa the lost seven month old romanian dog was found after two weeks AND before Carnival which was a great relief to her fosterers, her rescue and myself and Niz Khan - Rob of K9 Kennels and Amanda who spent many hours and days putting out flyers - and walking the streets of Holland Park W11 trying to find her.
Buster a ten year old senior King Charles was adopted by a lovely senior lady who had lost her own dog a year ago and I saw Buster on All Dogs Matter Rescue website (a great rescue that deal both with dogs and owners with kindness and tlc) - It was an ideal adoption for two lonely seniors!!!
I am working with Winnie a four month gorgeous labrador and would melt any man's heart but unfortunately is running rings around her owner!! We are doing a few follow up sessions and meeting again next week - after more doggy homework!! I did see a great improvement today so her owner is really working hard!!!
Dog Socialising Classes commence on 14th September 2013 in the dog area of Queens Park Gardens W10 - places still available for the 2.pm - 3pm class for Adult dogs.
Enjoy the weather, Enjoy your pets and keep them safe!
Maida Vale Dog Show to be held in the Dog Area of Padding Recreation Grounds on 31st August 2013 has now been put back to 28th September 2013.
Judges will have to be notified - and new posters and flyers printed!! Also I have to meet up with the Park Manager of Paddington Recreation Grounds to see which dog area will be the best venue to hold the dog show event in! Last year it was the Dog area (Carlton Vale entrance) and it was an ideal venue - enclosed and ticked all the Risk Assessment Boxes and Pet Business Insurance Public Care and Liability Requirements.
Jinny the Ealing Dog Warden was also going to offer Free Microchipping to local dog owners for their canines and has been notified of the change of date.
The categories will be Ms Diva, Mr Slick, Best Senior, Best Rescue . Pup Idol and of course 'I luv my staffi' - great prizes (for dogs only of course) and rosettes will be given out on the day!
After a great day of a successful Dog Show and the presentation of the Canine Community Cup to two worthy dogs and owners and a successful Queens Park Festival I came home jubilant and patting myself on the back - job 'Well done'!!
Jinny the Ealing Dog Warden had had over 15 dogs who came to the same day FREE 'microchipping event' and I offered dog advice and helped register the dogs. All dogs Big and small - all breeds were well controlled and kept in check. By the time evening came - and I had walked my two pooches - I was ready for sleep - so all phones - computers were turned off until next morning!
I awoke to learn that a rescue dog from Romania - Tessa a ginger and white crossbreed - was missing after one day with her new adoptors. Tessa at seven months - fostered in the countryside - now DogLost - frightened in London NW8. Suddenly all yesterdays 'feeling of job well done' was gone and I was along with other volunteer rescuers looking out there on the streets of NW8, W9 and W11 looking for Tessa!
Ten days later we are still looking - we have had several sightings yesterday evening in Holland Park W11 and have set up a trap But we need more volunteers to man the trap and time is running out as Notting Hill Gate Carnival approaches this week end.
Queens Park is celebrating Its Tenth Community Festival in Queens Park Gardens W10 and www.canineculture.com are helping them celebrate with a Canine Champs of Queens Park Dog Show.
All dogs are welcome - big or small - chihuahua - staffordshire bull terrier - to strut and pose and all hoping to win great prizes and of course be Crowned 'Canine Champ' All dogs on leads and all handlers accompanied by an adult.
Registration is at 11.45am at the Dog Area Queens Park Gardens W10 (Ilbert Street Entrance) - The Dog Show and Fun Begins at mid day.
The judge will have the hardest job of all - choosing the winners and hoping not to offend the local residents - and thats just the owners!!
Also there will be free microchipping for all dogs and advice on behaviour and dog control laws - this will be from one pm until five pm - so any dogs that are not microchipped should take advantage of this free service.
Every year a dog owner (s) is picked out from the many dog lovers in Queens Park Community for their commitment and care and responsibility for their canine and how they have worked extra hard to improve their pets behaviour - or helped show a good example of responsible dog ownership.
This year are two joint winners - Grace a rescued 'bait dog' whose owner Venetia worked so hard and with tlc and patience turned a nervous dog into a lovable companion who sleeps with her resident cat Joker - who rules the roost.
The other winner is Olly a golden retriever whose young owners sold cakes they made themselves to raise over £80 for the mayhew animal home - a local rescue and came to every training class with Olly no matter what the weather was with dedication .
Great day for dogs - big and small - from Bertie the french bulldog to Tyson the Staffordshire Bull Terrier - the rain stayed off for an afternoon of walking to heal - introducition of Tyson to small dogs and other staffies - and teaching Betty the pug (or her owner Heidi) that learning 'recall' and being of lead was 'fun'!!
Then darling Rocco the lurcher came in with his new dog collar and much more calmer than he was in the last session!! Good boy Rocco you obviously 'did your homework'!! Romeo the little jack russell was tearing up and down with his new pals until he got a bit hyperactive - so back on the lead for him!! Jasper was trying to find where my 'training dog treats' were hidden - found the 'water bowl' instead.
No matter what the weather always make sure you have water for the dogs during exercise and while walking - More so in hot weather.
Sorry Bertie but your owners are changing the 'house rules'!!
Bailey, Casper and Tuppence's owners texted me their apologies.
Friday was such a beautiful day when out walking the dogs SO why when it is time for my Dog Training Class on Saturday at precisely 2pm the rain comes tumbling down!!! But then dogs have to go out and enjoy the experience of walking in all weathers!! Just not the perfect time for dog training!!
First comes Jimmy and Jasper dragging their owner with her umbrella towards me - then Poppy the little westie who is a bit nervous of human contact - with her bright raincoat on. Then Samuel the Beagle who has incurred two 'nasty dog attacks within a few days of each other but thankfully with the help of his vet is recovering nicely - well physically anyway!!
As the sun comes out between the clouds - Bailey the now very grown up labrador comes bounding up to me and then skids into a 'sit' position - like he just remembered 'something' from puppy classes. Followed by a quick appearance by Tuppence a terrier cross accompanied by his apologetic owner who unfortunately can not stay but will be back next week. A Beautiful ridgeback comes gracefully to my side - what a socialised treasure - one of my previous 'clients' - his owner asks if he can observe the lesson - of course - welcome all breeds - shapes and sizes and thats NOT just the dogs!
Sadly Dusty the whippet has passed away since the last dog training class and his owners have got a new pure white whippet x from Battersea Dogs Home who needs help with nipping the little terrier who has just come in to play.
Dog Owners get ready to sign up - disaster the registration forms are soaked from the earlier downpour - so will have to register next session - Sunday 23rd June.
It turned out to be a great afternoon but also it was a very special day for Emma (Bailey's family) a young girl who is the bravest girl I know - for on Monday Emma will have a big heart operation and she talks about it with full insight yet so matter of fact and so brave - that as an adult I have to make sure I am half as brave and not cry. All of the dog owners in the area had made a special photo album of all the dogs and given Emma cards and teddies.
We held a 'FREE Microchipping Event' at St Judes Hall Ilbert Street, Queens Park W10 - with myself and a dog warden from Westminster to give advice and general health check to all dogs in the area.
Microchipping of all dogs will be a legal requirement in 2016 But why wait when so many of our dogs go missing, get lost or stolen and if they are microchipped the owners stand a much better chance of getting their dogs returned to them.
Sitting here with my two rescues - Missy Blue a jack russell/whippet cross and Chelsea Rose a jack russell cross - one aged ten years and the other about seven years old - I can not imagine NEVER having a dog or dogs in my life. Yet what happens when I am older and the day comes when my 'precious canine pals' have passed and I want once again to 'adopt' and give my heart and home to another dog . What happens when my 'advancing years' are approaching - and even though I am active - healthy in body and mind - Suddenly my 'ability' to 'walk' 'care' and offer a homeless dog a safe and loving home is 'in doubt' by the very rescue centers I have always supported!!!
Ageism in the 'Animal World' seems to be following the 'trend' of the workplace - and it is a sad day that 'shelters' and 'over zealous' administrators should judge us on a 'number' rather than on our ability to be a loving responsible adoptor of the numerous unwanted canines.
When I heard the story of a lovely lady who had had dogs all her life, just lost her little terrier of 15 years and wanted to rescue another little dog and was refused!! One rescue she contacted had the perfect dog for her and everything was going well - UNTIL she told them her age! Suddenly the dog had been already adopted- only to appear on their 'site' a few days later. I met this lady - she is active - walks everywhere - lovely home with a secure garden and oh yes ----- nearly eighty. She doesn't want a pup - she wants a dog who she can share her life with for quite a few years to come - thank you!!
through 'officialdoms red tape' and a focus on 'age' rather than a loving home here, at least in UK older animal lovers are being excluded from homing a dog.
A cold day - a threat of snow but I was determined my 'dog socialising class' was going ahead!!
I had arranged for the classes to take place in the (Dog Area) Paddington Recreation Ground W9 - a lovely big enclosure for safe and security for all the dogs taking part. With registration forms, (for Public care and Liability Insurance and monitoring for Westminster Council) - training leads - water bowls (yes even in cold weather it is still good to have access to water for thirsty 'trainees') I was already to go - just needed some 'dogs' to bring their owners!!!
First to 'Bounce' through the gate was Ringo a lovely 'american bulldog' rescued from Bullies in Need - raring to 'socalise himself' with lots of vigor - then along came Junior a GSD x all the way from Spain - he was fearful of other dogs.
Bella the labrador came bounding up to me - her owner holding 'for dear life' to the lead! Alaska and Arakeetall (beautiful names) two very friendly huskies - Alaska the female had a little stubborn streak and only wanted to do what Alaska wanted! Rocky a handsome six month lurcher/GSD x came in - needs to learn 'lead control' and to be more confident around other dogs. BB the staffie cross came in with Molly the Romanian dog rescue eight years ago - both determined to show the 'other dogs' how 'it was done' as they had been to 'quite a few' classes before.
Oh and lastly but not least Little Ava a little staffie pup with her 'foster mum' looking a bit overwhelmed with all the 'Big guys'! Ava is from the mayhew animal home trenmar Gardens London NW10 - I offer a place in the class free to a puppy or dog from a rescue home for one or two sessions.
The first class is always to assess the dogs and the 'owners' behaviour and to socialise the dogs with each other - all on leads - it is also important that owners discuss in a group their own 'views' on their dogs behaviour before we practice 'walking on the lead' together in pairs - and to show how to stop the dogs from pulling - using the 'block'.
It was a great group of dogs - and I look forward to next Saturday 's session - and I hope they do too!!
Its the first month of the new year and canine culture wishes every dog owner and of course their canines a great and exciting new year ahead.
So far this month though the snow was great for our doggy pals to enjoy running and playing with snowballs and racing up and down in the parks and woodland!! - it was not the ideal weather for 'puppy training'!! Walking on lead and teaching adventurous or nervous pups not to pull when you yourself are slipping and sliding on the icy pavements is NOT a trainers or owners ideal training session - and definitely not for the 'pup in training' - the best weather to sit and stay, when a warm fire and their favourite bed was waiting for them indoors!
So dog training classes and one to one sessions and assessments were put on hold until late January and Early February.
Firstly I wanted to observe how Alfie and Ken's owners reacted to their behaviour - everytime they saw another big dog approaching they would verbally 'reassure' their dogs and saying 'Be good boys' - and don't bark etc. - what they were doing was condoning their behaviour - my training method is to use verbal or 'food' reward to praise a dog when they have done something to earn it only.
I walked Alfie by my side and when he went to Bark I ignored him - stopped with the lead turned his head round to the side and immediately he stopped I verbally praised him 'Good Boy' and after a few stops - turns and 'good boys' he was walking more confident but without the barking and as for Ken he trotted by his owners side with not so much as a 'squeak'. Giving both owners doggy homework - for the next seven days - and then for our next session - food guarding!
One of my other clients is Bella a chocolate labrador four months old - such a good student until that labrador's stubborn trait appears!! Perfect sit and stay - recall - its still a game of hide and seek for her owner - still early days. 'How do you do it Crissie - she comes straight to you - but not to me' her young owner cries - practice and patience and making yourself exciting and the main focus of your dog!! Back next monday for another training session with my canine 'peter pan'.
2012 was a year of - protesting for the end of a law that is NOT in touch with reality and judges the 'breed NOT the deed' - The BSL which condemns a 'bull breed' for what he looks like THAN whether he or she has committed any 'Deed' that comes under the Dangerous Dog Act or not!! We said good bye to Lennox on 11th July 2012 after he spent two years in captivity - imprisoned in kennels - with Victoria Stilwell and Roger Mumford amongst Lennox's supporters from around the world. RIP Lennox we are still fighting The authorities of Belfast for JUSTICE for you and your family!
I met Peter Egan, Sarah Fisher Anthony Head - but best of all were all those Dedicated and Inspiring EndBSL supporters who came out in rain or shine to the Peaceful Protest in Westminster to spread the word - End BSL Now.
In 2012 I continued by dog socialising classes in the Harrow Road Ward, Queens Park Ward and the wards in South Westminster - promoting responsible dog ownership and socialising both dogs and owners. I attended with Missy Blue my jack russell cross in local educational events with school children in libraries and schools about 'Being safe and secure around dogs'. Held four dog shows featuring 'I luv my staffie' Ms Diva, Mr Slick and other categories.
2012 we petitioned for Anna the Elephant abused and kept in captivity for years to be freed and she now knows the safety and protection of a sanctuary where she tasted the joy of freedom. Along with Brian May we stopped (for now) the culling of badgers in UK and will continue our fight into 2013.
Mozart, Buttons, Clash and Betty and Sebastian - felines abandoned on the streets of london got homes - Betty the tabby going as far as Gloucester!
Cuba a blue staffordshire bull terrier was found after a massive united facebook appeal and reunited with her family. Ruth a 'cruelty case' found her dream home after a long wait - www.mayhewanimalhome.org.uk never gave up on her. Missy and Bru two romanian dogs found their forever home with my amazing friend Lynda Bryan and also I met the True K-9Angels - three glamourous ladies that work so hard for the animals in Romania, Thailand and other countries were their is no support or animal care for the strays. Many of us campaigned and tried to find homes not only for the poundies who have only 7 days to be rescued or reunited before they are euthanized - in UK but for dogs and cats in USA that were on Death Row. Maria Daines, Marsha Jones, Nicola, Lynda, Laura, Gary Kaufman, Sharon, Paul - Natasha Mason - Vicki - Coleen - AnnMarie - So many Animal Angels to thank for their commitment - dedication and Never giving up.
Sadly we lost some beautiful feline and canine pals - Handsome Gentleman Dizzy - Magnificent Khan - Lovable Mutley a staffie I homed with a great family over ten years ago. Sweet Polo a little cat rescued from a hoarder who had over 150 cats and also Pookie. Georgie a little terrier, Tiny Jessie a little yorkie rescued from abuse. Louise's little Angel - May you and all the animals that died that could not be saved. May you all run free - free from Pain.
May I wish everyone a happy new year and pledge to continue to fight for The welfare and protection of all animals, and to educate the uninformed - make laws harsher for the abusers NOT the victims. | 2019-04-20T18:16:43Z | http://canineculture.blogspot.com/2013/ |

These Cookies Are FANTASTIC? What’s in them?
OK so I am gluten-free, sugar-free and cow dairy-free, how do you make a great tasting cookie? I use real recipes from old-fashioned cooking and use all organic real ingredients I can eat! Simple!
Mix dry ingredients including nuts, coconut and raisins in small bowl and set aside. Heat oven to 350. Grease cookie sheet with coconut oil lightly. In large mixing bowl let butter soften. When soft, add vanilla, molasses and egg and whisk until light and fluffy. Add dry to wet and mix. Drop batter on cookie sheet and flatten and shape to round cookies about 5/8 to3/4″ tall. Bake 15 minutes. Test before removing from oven for firmness. These cookies are more crumbly than their standard cousins, but oh boy are these fantastic and healthy!! How soon can you make some??

Tom W: exactly how would I do what you suggest?
I have one now in a web page created using Flash 8 Pro. I want the video to play EITHER when the image is clicked OR when the console is clicked. I have a title image in frame 1 on a separate layer, an flv on the bottom layer and the action on the top layer.
Now, if the console is clicked the audio can be heard, but the title image is all that is visible. If the image is clicked, it plays correctly, that is, the title image goes away and the video is seen.
You may need to scroll down a little to see the video. | 2019-04-22T22:45:45Z | http://talkfreelance.com/showpost.php?s=3d02d85da4f74281ccb85a8743f5b40f&p=466558&postcount=4 |
I have the following problem: I created my own 'Style' in one Writer file. Now I want to be able to use it in every Writer file that I will open (the existing ones) or create (when I create new files). How can I do this?
Make the file you created the styles in a template and derive new files from it.
Open the template from which the existing files were derived for editing.
Create the styles or import them by pasting in objects having the wanted styles assigned.
If you now create a new document based on that template, it should contain the style (see above).
If you open a document for editing which was created earlier from that template you should be prompted for updating the styles.
Generally the named styles are copied and pasted together with objects having the styles as their property if there is not a name conflict.
Thank you. It is very helpful. The advice for existing files, it actually works to my suprise. It could be a little better, but ok, it works. Thanks again. | 2019-04-22T12:35:23Z | https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/143614/using-my-own-style-in-many-witer-files-how-to/ |

As Leila began working on her spring collection, she came to the Vans team looking for a more mature, simplistic vibe. Inspired by floral rose designs and tonal backgrounds with a white checkerboard print, the Leila Hurst Style 36 Decon SF features deconstructed canvas and suede uppers, UltraCush insoles for modern comfort, and classic waffle rubber outsoles. Made with toe caps for a fresh new take on this iconic sidestripe style, the Style 36 Decon SF also includes water-based inks and glues. | 2019-04-18T18:48:30Z | https://www.vans.com.au/style-36-sf-leila-hurst.html |
As an obesity medicine specialist, Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford understands the implicit and explicit biases that her patients face. As a black female doctor, she’s also familiar with the biases she faces each day. But a recent Delta flight was a poignant reminder of these biases when flight attendants questioned her credentials as a doctor as she provided care to a fellow passenger. Dr. Stanford discusses this experience and why she's speaking out against biases and promoting diversity in medicine. | 2019-04-25T04:10:05Z | http://charged.libsyn.com/practicing-medicine-as-a-black-woman-with-dr-fatima-cody-stanford |
