The City of Goshen hired JPR to complete the design of this important traffic link. The firm’s assignment included a very compressed timeline, as the project needed to start construction and be completed in the 2009 construction season. The design was complete within 45 days, allowing the City to take advantage of a very attractive bidding market. Bids came in substantially below the engineer’s estimate and the project was completed on time and within the contract budget.
This phase included unique and challenging design components such as a railroad overpass, sustainable storm water and wetlands systems, LED lighting, and a multi-use pedestrian facility. Wightman Petrie continued on this project with the design of Phase II. This phase, funded as an LPA project, includes a very detailed traffic study, survey, design, environmental services, and right-of-way engineering. | 2019-04-22T06:03:14Z | http://www.jpr1source.com/waterford-mills-parkway/ |
This study aimed to characterize changes in lipid saturation using magnetic resonance spectroscopy of sensitive (HeLa) and resistant (C33A; Me180) cervical cancer cell lines following exposure to paclitaxel to explore lipid profiles as biomarkers of drug resistance. Spectra were acquired at 11.74 T. Flow cytometry, electron, and confocal microscopy assessed cellular morphology. Western blots assessed cytoplasmic phospholipase A2, fatty acid synthase, and acyl-CoA synthetase1 expression. After 24 h of paclitaxel exposure, >60% of cells showed mitotic arrest. At 48 h, HeLa cells showed apoptosis while C33A/Me180 cells showed normal morphology indicating resistance. MR-visible lipids increased significantly in all lines at 24 h with further increases at 48 h; resistant lines showed smaller increases than HeLa. Cytoplasmic phospholipase A2 and fatty acid synthase levels were unchanged at 24 h and dropped at 48 h in HeLa; acyl-CoA synthetase1 was higher in Me180/C33A than in HeLa controls but did not increase significantly. The percentage of cells displaying lipid droplets increased significantly at 24 and 48 h in all lines; droplet size increased only in HeLa cells. Droplet number was >34 x greater in apoptotic compared with mitotic-arrested cells. Apoptotic cells accumulate unsaturated fatty acids in large (relative to control) droplets; resistant lines accumulated smaller droplets with less triglycerides. Magn Reson Med, 2012.

Every time I have gone to Disneyland since my 16th birthday, it has been a tradition to pick up a new pair of ears each trip.
Now, let’s go into detail about each pair!
On my 16th birthday, I walked into the Mad Hatter and asked myself “If Taylor was here, which ears would she pick?” I knew right away I had to get these silver sparkly ones! They are my all time favorite ears, and the memory of my 16th birthday is so special.
Recently, the headband of this one broke, though :(.
I got these really simple and classic Minnie Ears on Grad night!
That same night, I saw a lot of people walking around with these Star Wars ears. If you know me at all, you know how much I love Star Wars. Thus, I ran over to Tomorrowland to pick them up.
They also light up which is super rad!
On my visit right before leaving for college, I was with my mom when I got these. Super cute hot pink and sparkles!
Next was the trip for my 18th birthday! These are a childhood dream come true! When I was at the park with my mom previously, I found these after I had gotten the hot pink ones. I usually only get one pair per trip because the ears are tied with the memory of that specific day (grad night was an exception because…. light up Star Wars ears for $13…… hell yes).
I had always loved Mickey’s Fantasmic Sorcerer hat growing up, but could never get it because, where would I wear it? lmao. So, when I came across these, my life was made. My dad got a matching pair with me, and we watched Fantasmic that night with our ears :).
These ears I picked up on my trip with my dorm. They are the Beauty and The Beast Belle ears. I thought they were the only cute ones around when I was at the park.
Last, but not least, are the light pink ears! I got these on my most recent trip, which was actually a surprise trip. We arrived at The World of Disney store right when it opened and they had tons of these. I had to grab myself a pair because pink is everything.
These are all of my ears thus far. I have three more trips planned for this year and I will be picking up more of course! | 2019-04-26T12:07:46Z | https://kimmyvilla.com/2018/06/06/my-mickey-ears-collection/ |
I'm Amy and I'm a healthcare assistant working in Health in Justice.
You would expect a typical day as a healthcare assistant to consist of assisting the nursing team in small clinics and one on one patient care, however being a prison healthcare assistant is very different. You must have the ability to work autonomously, have good time keeping skills and be an excellent team player with a good sense of humour.
The day starts for me at 9am. I see between 1-10 patients for a discharge clinic to discuss all the issues they may face upon release from custody. My job is to ensure all the medication is prescribed prior to release and follow up appointments are in place.
Emergency responses - I work with an excellent nursing and paramedic team. They are always the first to respond to any blue code (not breathing) or red code (self harm) and I will respond as necessary to assist with equipment, paper work or anything they need. However it can sometimes be different - for example I came to work one particular morning and before I'd even had a chance to put my bag in my locker I had to run to a response. This involved one prisoner and two injured officers. The response lasted more than three hours, following this there were a further two incidents. Being the first on the scene as a healthcare assistant is a very daunting task, however working in a custodial environment gives you the skills to deal with incidents, as it may only be you that can make the decision.
General clinic – INR, general observations, follow ups, clinic letters for hospital referrals etc.
Bowel cancer screening - it is vital that I keep up to date and on track with patient care from the community to custody, continuity of care is vital in a custodial environment.
Substance misuse – after working closely with the substance misuse team for many years assisting with observations and care planning for patients with substance misuse issues such as alcoholics and drug users, I decided to widen my skills in physical health. With a team from healthcare and the prison I helped build and deliver a smoke free service at HMP & YOI Doncaster which came into force January 2018 with much success, currently offering Nicorette patches and group work to patients on a weekly basis.
Infection control - being the lead in IPC, it is important that I monitor all areas to ensure they are kept up to date and clean – a weekly inspection is carried out and reported for actions. I deliver regular training and updates to all staff and inform them of changes and updates in service.
Training - I deliver all the training for hand hygiene and Methasoft (Methadone dispensing system) training to all staff and provide regular updates and assist with any issues or problems staff may face.
All of my duties are self-led but any problems I face there is always someone to help, whether it be another healthcare assistant, admin, pharmacy technician, nurse, paramedic, advanced nurse practitioner, doctor or management.
I love my job and don’t see myself doing anything else. | 2019-04-22T07:15:34Z | http://www.careukhealthcare.com/healthcareassistanthealthinjustice |
But here is Mongolia and Nomadic Nights with a guest writer, my friend Jeff Westin in the Newsletter. Plus the Travel Tip tells you how to connect your computer in an Internet Café.
Photos of Russia, Ulaan Baatar, Mongolia, Beijing, Trains and a few girls in I be Hobo shirts.
Hoboguide.com an online guide that I am working on is making progress. I want to thank Andrew S, a techie from Margao, India. He is happy, vigorous, and systematically attacking and helping me to make an online guidebook for the world.
He has done or made the choices with only a little guidance from me on the architecture of the site. He has a good tone and feel.
Thank You Andrew S from Margao, India.
I suppose the quality of looks and belly buttons has improved in Thailand, but the quality of smiles and friendly dispositions has taken a drop among the travelers. Mongolia has a culture traveler as doe countries like Laos or South America and this is a different channel of travelers. But looks do sell, and packaging is good, I am not complaining and I am going to the beach to see what happens with no packaging.
I spent Christmas Eve with a nice American girl with from New York City and the same New York methodology of looking at or taking from the world. She was looking at some books to buy here in Bangkok and I spied the black, curly, JAP - Jewish American Princess from the back, and then waited for here to turn around to see if I was dreaming, or it is other dreams of mine.
She was funny and telling me all of her exploits and how she wishes to go to MBA School in Thailand. That does seem a Darwinian regression, especially for the East Coast person that has some good schools out there. I do not know what to say about studying in other countries. The best foundations are in the first level countries, and more maybe of the practical or applied in another country.
I do not want to live in Thailand. I love to visit, but I am looking for life more in huggable countries with more touch and feel. I suppose I want to be more sensitive to people like my girl friend in college Judy always wanted from me, and I was clueless. Some countries I am a visitor and other countries I could be integrated into the fabric of their society. But Thailand is definitely fun in a more basic way, and this is good.
I made a complaint about the culture of India and she commented that if I really wanted to learn about culture I would go visit or go see people.
In a country where all the travelers take the train, I took the bus to see what is maybe closer to real India whatever that means. To learn about a culture it takes time and isolation from travelers. You cannot buy a culture lesson or go visit a family for a culture lesson. I suppose you can learn about rich well to do families in other countries if you live with them and they for sure will put on their best Sunday go to meeting attitude and represent their country as great Ambassadors and such, but to really find the country. I think you need to spend at minimum 10 days in each city; find places where there are ZERO tourist and learn the language a little. Home stays and living with families is a good thing, but not really getting into the trenches with people.
What I find is that other cultures are uncomfortable, and when I am experiencing a culture I am on foreign ground, and nothing feel right, because I am not in my culture. If it feels good, and seems good, you are probably in a try-to-be-western-culture world of make believe.
People that do not want to talk to you, and have no reason to talk to you, and really cannot be bothered, are the happenstance world of culture. But do not think that living with a wannabe western like family in another culture is NOT culture. It is culture it is a wannabe western like family in another country culture.
Sort of like the guy or girl that does not want to be fashion, or trendy and cops out and flakes out to be a hippie, and has dreads, tattoos, and makes a statement.
There is nothing unique about them, and nothing is freethinking about a person that looks and acts like the group.
I will admit. I do think there is real rage though. That smelly undercurrent inside a person that is wishing to push or hurt someone, even if only by being so obnoxious and intolerant as to try to push their lifestyle on anyone that does not want it. | 2019-04-21T20:27:48Z | https://www.hobotraveler.com/2004/03/today-is-newsletter-day-only-3-days-late.html |
Psalm 1:3 – And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
We are advised to avoid spending time with and listening to the advice of mockers, the ungodly and sinners (Ps 1:1). Instead we should embrace the Word of God (Ps 1:2), then we will be fresh, flourishing and beautiful. The Word becomes the living water inside of us. It has the solution to every problem. It provides the strength for each day. It brings life to everything it touches. Is this what you need?
Pray in the Spirit: This is why praying in the spirit profits much. We are praying from that river within. We are prophesying to our future. We are defeating the enemy. We are building ourselves up.
Draw the water out of your belly: We do this by meditating upon Him. Meditating is thinking on the Word of God. In Psalm 1:3, and Joshua 1:8 we see the benefits of meditation – success and prosperity!
As we spend time reading the Word, memorizing and meditating on scripture and praying in the Spirit. I guarantee you will be blessed. | 2019-04-22T18:37:24Z | http://royalvictory.org/entries/general/living-waters-within |

We all know how much I love music. If only I could turn back the hands of time and capture those youthful days when all that mattered was school, friendships, boys and the parentals taking care of the bills. Since I'm unable to get it in using my time machine, I'll settle for spreading my wings and flying away to a destination island.
Ok so my thoughts have zero to do with the song. Either way, it is one worth sharing. Enjoy! Leave a comment and let me know what you'll be spreading your wings to do this weekend.
I'll be spreading my wings and cleaning the house! Lol, which it was something more exciting!
This weekend I will be celebrating my daughters 21st birthday with a special mother/daughter getaway! I don't know who is more excited her or ME!
@Linka, I really should follow suit but today is only day first of Springbreak and I'm spending it in bed. Happy cleaning.
@Nikki, Happy 21st cake to your daughter. Wow! I hope your time together is fantastic. I always enjoy my mom & daughter time. It never gets old.

CITY businessman almost told his most famous customer so far to "pull the other one" when they asked for 50 gold crackers for the forthcoming Harry Potter film.
But when movie giants Warner Brothers called on Keith Langford's Absolutely Crackers to provide the props for the Christmas party scene he snapped at the chance as the reality started to sink in. And Keith, who started his Internet firm four years ago after recognising a gap in the market for year-round cracker suppliers, said he never felt tempted to up the selling price for the order despite the studio's wealth. "It was quite a surprise but not such a big deal - so I never thought to charge more than the usual price," said Keith, of Milton Keynes. "If the order was larger then I might have done."
Warner Brothers, who are producing the film adaptation of JK Rowling's bestseller Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone at Pinewood Studios, searched the world for a cracker supplier who could come up with the goods. They finally stumbled across Absolutely Crackers earlier this year after tapping in crackers on an Internet website search engine. "Crackers are virtually unheard of in America," added Keith. "But we can offer them at anytime for corporate events, weddings or other requirements - we even do empty ones for customers to put their own surprises inside."
Keith says he is now hoping to land a contract, keeping his business in the movie frame, supplying crackers to the Planet Hollywood restaurant chain in London and throughout Europe. Harry Potter is screened in the UK from November 16. | 2019-04-18T14:26:42Z | http://absolutelycrackers.blogspot.com/2001/ |

Today was a busy day that included visits to two of my favorite stores: EMS and REI. I was hoping to find some after-Christmas bargains in running and outdoor wear, but I wasn't compelled to buy. I did get a lightweight reflective vest to replace the tattered one that I've been using. The vest that I'd bought a few months ago at Paragon is a little too bulky for running, but I'm sure it will come in handy for some other use.
My wife picked up a very nice Mountain Hardware sweater at REI at a great price. I also bought three GU gels that were on sale for $0.79 -- Peppermint Stick, Peanut Butter and Mandarin Orange. I hope those flavors taste as good as they sound when put to actual use.
I've decided I will participate in Sunday's LIRRC Hangover fun run. It's a five mile course on the grounds of Eisenhower Park, with no tracking chips. It could be fun to run a "race" without the pressure of the clock. I believe that the race is timed for those who want to know how they did, but no results are posted.
I did 40 minutes on the elliptical machine this morning and set the resistance higher than I usually do. It was a nice low impact workout that still generated quite a sweat. I'll go out for a few miles tomorrow to celebrate another great year of running. On Sunday the 2012 odometer will start!
I will also be at the run on Sunday=didn't know it wasn't timed-even better since I really didn't want to race it, but run it with a client of mine who could use some moral support! Have fun!

May can be a whirlwind in a school. The weather reminds teachers and students alike that summer break is coming. Culminating events are crowded into the calendar, all of which require public performance, heightening competition and stress. Teachers have reached the saturation point with that particular student in third period who constantly interrupts, the teacher down the hall whose students seem to be hanging from the chandelier, and the parent who complains no matter how hard the teacher tries to meet the parent’s demands. Final tests loom ominously, as teachers take their students’ progress seriously and know that student performance reflects on their own performance. Often teachers find themselves in conflict with other teachers especially in May, which can derail a school community, specifically student culture, as students pick up on teacher-to-teacher conflict and feed it for entertainment. Exhausted teachers have trouble following the first rule of school: Don’t take it personally!
What usually happens when a teacher is annoyed or concerned about a colleague’s behavior is gossip. Most teachers are conflict averse, and so if they’re angry, they often share their anger with someone other than the one to whom it should be directed. They find a sympathetic colleague, or worse, a sympathetic parent or student, and vent. They lose their temper with a class that is particularly silly or seemingly unconcerned about the academic business of school. They get depressed and mope about, feeling like failures. None of these are particularly effective responses, although they are quite frequent, especially in May.
An alternative, which requires courage and self-awareness, is for the angry teacher to calm down, and then go to the teacher whose behavior upsets them and ask for a private conversation. Schedule a meeting – a cup of coffee, a lunch, a conference after school – don’t do it on the fly. Tell the colleague that you want their perspective on something. At the meeting, the teacher who is upset should first thank the colleague for meeting, then state the common goal that they share – working for the good of the children. The teacher then calmly states the behavior that is upsetting him or her, and how that behavior makes him or her feel. For example: I know that you and I are both dedicated to doing what’s best for children, and I want us to work together to accomplish that. It seems like our parameters for classroom behavior are different, and sometimes that makes me angry. I feel like my efforts to keep my students on track are wasted if my students can interrupt or socialize in your class, but not in mine. How can we collaborate to make sure that our classroom expectations are in sync? Then listen. Really listen. You may find that your colleague is struggling and needs your help. Or you may find that your colleague doesn’t want to work with you, in which case you should go to your supervisor. | 2019-04-22T10:02:29Z | https://maryriser.org/2018/05/09/education-from-inside-and-outside-teacher-to-teacher-communication/ |

With a variety of 13-watt, 2-pin, plug-in CFL GX23 bulbs to choose from, you will be sure to find the product that fits your requirements at 1000Bulbs. These bulbs produce from 800 to 825 lumens depending on the model. Unlike standard incandescent bulbs, which are measured in watts, compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs use lumens. This is a measurement that describes the brightness of the bulb, rather than the amount of electrical power (wattage) that it consumes. To offer some perspective on this measurement, one lumen is said to equal the light of a candle from a distance of one foot. The unmatched selection at 1000Bulbs ensures you will find the right bulb no matter your lighting needs. | 2019-04-25T14:04:40Z | https://www.1000bulbs.com/category/13-watt-2-pin-gx23-plug-in-compact-fluorescents |

It’s no secret that medicine has become the foundational backbone for the American healthcare system.
Recently though, families are seeking more effective, natural ways to approach their health. Well, Morris County, you’re in luck! This past July, Drs. Marissa Johnson and Jason Abaza launched Adjust Chiropractic Health Center in Rockaway Township. Their goal was simple: provide a state-of-the-art, holistic healthcare facility for area residents.
Not interested in getting “cracked”? Adjust specializes in neurologically-based chiropractic care. You won’t find any twisting, popping, or cracking in the facility. Instead, non-invasive, safe technology is used to assess the nervous system to locate the root source of health issues. Additionally, the doctors use gentle, specific adjustments with the 1st ever FDA-approved chiropractic instrument, the Integratorä. By removing interference from the nervous system, the body heals, naturally.
The impact the facility has made on the overall health of the community in such a short time is remarkable. This March the Adjust team hosted “Pancakes, Coffee, and Fellowship”, an event at Parsippany IHOP, to celebrate the countless testimonials of their practice members, meet the public, and allow guests to learn more about this new version of chiropractic.
The practice specializes with infants, children, athletes, adults, and geriatrics. If you’re interested in learning if Adjust can help your family, you can take a tour of the facility located at 85 Green Pond Rd in Rockaway or call (973) 957-0836. Mention the Parsippany Focus or Morris Focus to receive a complimentary consultation with the doctors.

Is it crazy to believe there’s a better way? If so our name fits. We’re GKC, a recently formed creative company, started by a few stubbornly optimistic rule breakers. We are foolish enough to believe there’s a better way for brands to ignite the passion of today’s disinterested audiences.
It’s funny how often over the years we’ve seen agencies, for all their creative swagger, get stuck into some surprisingly formulaic approaches. We think part of our job is to help clients avoid formulas that treat their audience like targets instead of people. We’ve seen brands doing this quickly lose impact and become forgettable.
Now with the rise of Social Media, ad-optimizing technologies, targeted online product placement, and powerful search-based ad servers, brands can easily be seen in all the right places at just the right time. These newer tools can help, but they are not a secret formula. Why? Because everyone is already using them. So… how will your brand stand out? Most agencies act like that’s the easy part. We don’t agree.
Creative campaigns rooted in human truth have stopping power. They keep people from going to the fridge, or on to their next social post. No, they’re not easy to make, but that’s our specialty. Besides, we think it’s crazy (the bad kind) for you to spend all that money, just to have your brand ignored and forgotten.
The team we’ve assembled has a proven track record. They’re some of the smartest, most talented people out there. Our wide range of experience across traditional, digital and emerging media makes us uniquely equipped to deliver great ideas and finished work across all your brand’s touch-points.

Showing results for tags 'aeola'.
Here is a nice little jazz standard, published in 1932, titled "My Silent Love." I'm playing the Wheatstone Aeola.
Jazz standard based on Chopin's Fantaisie Impromptu. Played on my 1909 Aeola treble. Here: or on Soundcloud for the full version.
Concertina Sales At Button Boxes And Moothies, Aberdeen.
I will be at BB&M in Aberdeen this weekend. I will have for sale a metal-ended Aeola TT (30964) and a wooden-ended Lachenal New Model 48, both in excellent condition having been fettled respectively by Andrew Norman and David Robertson. I'll be around all the weekend except for Sat evening.
I've been searching for an hour comparing the Aeola English system Tenor and Tenor-Treble (model 17 and model 19) Which is right for me? I have the note range figured out but can't find anything specific on the size and weight comparison. Can soneone give me the size (across the flats) of both a 48K treble and a 56K tenor-treble Aeola please? Maybe a Model 22 too as well please. Actually... If this hasn't been done before, let's compile a chart comparing the different models. If it has been done please point me in the right direction or PM me for my email to send it to me please. I am mostly interested in Wheatstone but why not open it up. Please let's stick to English system though. Every few days I can put the info into a summary post. What do you say? Not the primary concern when choosing an instrument of course but it does come into it. I think this could be some very useful data compiled into one place. Please help Type (ex: tenor, tenor-treble, tenor etc,) Model # (ex: Model 17 for 48K treble Aeola etc.) Serial # (optional but especially useful if no model #) Number of keys Note range Features (ex: wrist straps, thumb strap to note position, etc.) Type of ends (ex: ebony, raised ebony, metal, etc.) Number of bellow folds Size (distance across the flats) Weight Thanks. | 2019-04-20T18:34:51Z | https://www.concertina.net/forums/index.php?/tags/aeola/ |

Explore our new search tool to find planet-class specialists, as well as obtainable primary care providers in your community. The emergency room is usually a frontline venue for the delivery of main healthcare care. In fact the healthcare insurance coverage business CEO’s take pleasure in an above typical CEO compensation, somewhere in the high 7-eight digit variety, and those added digits do not represent cents. The quantity and high quality of a lot of health care interventions are improved by means of the results of science, such as advanced via the healthcare model of overall health which focuses on the eradication of illness via diagnosis and successful therapy.
I also agree that it’s really sad that those who have never appear to care about those who never. Other countries allow private insurance coverage companies to exist as competitors, or as supplementation to the national plans to provide added coverage. Primary care is often utilized as the term for the health care services which play a part in the local neighborhood.
These solutions are typically only supplied in a restricted quantity of regional or national health care centres. Issues Regarded as, prior to you judge me, you want to understand that I was a COBRA Administrator for three years, and worked as a 1099 contractor selling insurance coverage for 1 year. Further, the use of HIT is anticipated to improve the high quality of health care, lessen health-related errors, enhance the health care service efficiency and decrease health care expenses.
This will demand a assortment of measures which includes extremely tight regulation of health care insurance firms who carry out no necessary function. In most nations, the financing of health care solutions attributes a mix of all 5 models, but the precise distribution varies across countries and more than time within countries. I don’t have to explain to the nearly 46 million Americans who don’t have well being insurance coverage how crucial this is. But it’s just as essential for Americans who do have overall health insurance.
With obesity in young children rapidly becoming a significant concern, health services frequently set up programs in schools aimed at educating young children in excellent consuming habits producing physical education compulsory in school and teaching young adolescents to have optimistic self-image. Lastly, reform will offer every single American with some fundamental consumer protections that will lastly hold insurance coverage organizations accountable. | 2019-04-18T12:32:11Z | http://www.denhamunitedlfc.com/just-healthcare-plans.html |

Now, let’s say that instead of a standard chess set, you’re playing on a board that keeps expanding into more and more squares. As the board gets larger, new rules crop up—rules that might only apply in certain parts of the board or with certain pieces. In an increasingly globalized modern supply chain, this expanding chess set might be the better metaphor. As trade routes proliferate and new sources of data come into play, an already complex task becomes almost forbiddingly so. What can modern supply chain managers and logistics managers do to cope with the ever-increasing complexity of modern logistics?
Let’s take a second to ask a critical question: what is it about complexity that’s problematic for supply chain managers? In part, it makes it harder to predict the outcome of any given decision, meaning that disruptions (in the form of unexpected events) are more likely to arise to derail your plans. The most direct way to cope with this is to deal with prediction head on and improve your forecasts with advanced predictive analytics. By leveraging your existing operational data into advanced analytics workflows, you can create forecasts that account for the growing complexity of the market and develop plans that reflect your data-driven expectations. This decreases the likelihood of the unexpected (though of course it doesn’t eliminate it entirely), resulting in fewer disruptions overall. After all, if you know what demand levels or freight costs will be in advance, you’re less likely to be blindsided by unexpected dips or upticks.
As the number of trade routes and major shipping hubs continue to proliferate, it’s crucial to remember that transport planning begins at home. A more global marketplace means that demand itself is more globalized, and thus more complex—because not all orders are created equal, geographically speaking. For this reason, it’s crucial to start from a position of control and understanding within your own organization. Specifically, you’ll need to determine what your maximum capacity levels are (whether that’s a matter of finding the bottleneck within your production lines or calculating your total freight capacity), and examine the ways that those levels change based on customer location and other requirements. By gaining this level of insight into and control over your own operations, you can be sure that you’re not overextending (or underutilizing) your capacity, ensuring that you don't put yourself in a position where on-time deliveries become impossible.
Above, we discussed the ways in which increased complexity can decrease predicability, leading to disruptions. The other issue with increased complexity? Inefficiency. Think back to our chess metaphor: even if you’re not actively courting disruption, the more options you have at every step of the value chain, the less likely it is that you’re giving each possible route, tour, and shipping option its due consideration. This means that you may be failing to identify the most efficient and cost effective routes because there are simply too many possible options. This is where supply chain integration comes in. It might seem paradoxical to solve a situation involving too many choices by integrating more data into your value stream, but in point of fact the more data you have the more successfully you can analyze your best options. This can take the form of both prescriptive analytics processes (which can help to uncover areas of ongoing waste) and the increased agility that frequently comes as a result of E2E visibility (owing to the more comprehensive view of the entire value chain that it provides).
Okay, let’s say that you’ve implemented advanced analytics workflows and you’ve increased your visibility levels to get a better handle on the entirety of your increasingly-global value chain. How else can you leverage that newfound visibility? “What-if” scenarios. Essentially, “what-if” scenarios enable you to model your entire supply chain digitally in order to simulate the effects of proposed changes or potential disruptions. In earlier, less-complex contexts, this might have been the type of thing that planners could do manually—a simple manufacturing line might respond in fairly obvious ways to the introduction of a new machine or a new schedule—but the modern logistics landscape is too vast and varied for pen and paper estimation to cut it. Your transport network is vast and far-reaching; how would it respond if you removed a particular hub or cross dock? What about adding a warehouse? By making these determinations with more certainty, you continue to stave off the effects of unexpected disruptions.
The one other thing planners need to contend with in an increasingly global supply chain? Speed. Things move quickly, situations can change at the drop of a hat, and planners need to be able to cope with this fact. The complexity of a given situation only increases as time goes by without action being taken. For this reason, real-time integration can be a huge value added proposition for companies seeking to decrease complexity in their logistics operations. If you can monitor situations in real-time, then you can react and make adjustments more quickly, preserving the maximum amount of possible value in the face of dicey situations. In fact, you can be not just reactive, but proactive, identifying potential pitfalls far in advance and taking actions to stabilize your logistics operations. In this way you cut down not just complexity, but risk—resulting in more on-time deliveries and fewer unwanted snafus. | 2019-04-20T01:26:31Z | https://blog.flexis.com/5-keys-to-coping-with-complexity-in-modern-logistics |
John Chambers, CEO of Cisco, talks to Peter Day about integrating acquired companies, innovation and the infinite bandwidth future for his ‘plumbing’ company.
It’s 34 years almost to the day since I started to report on business for the BBC. Quite by accident, and with no knowledge whatsoever of the subject : it was just a unique opportunity to talk (and listen) to a worldwide audience.
Since then, the amount of media coverage of business has ballooned, especially broadcast coverage, with 24-hour TV channels now devoted to it the subject. Unthinkable 30 years ago.
Sometimes they are enthralling, especially in the USA. But I’m still not sure that we are actually seeing or hearing very much more or more illuminating news about the real world of work than we were in the 1970s.
Of course it matters to a few thousand investors what the second by second movements of share prices are, and why they’re moving. Of course it is sometimes interesting to hear what business leaders have to say.
But so-called business coverage is still dominated by news of the big companies with stock market quotations who have to report their shareholders.
Vast swathes of business life all over the world are simply ignored by the business broadcasters, and the financial pages of the newspapers.
We don’t hear much about private companies, or family-owned businesses, some of them much bigger and more influential than the public companies with traded stocks.
And the news editors seem to be obsessed by the minutiae of monthly or weekly official statistics, endlessly speculating or whether or not the figures (out in a few minutes...) are going to show we are in depression or recession, whatever that means.
We’ve had an explosion of financiers’ news, pushing real, hands-on business into the background.
And those business leaders who give interviews have been trained and polished by advisors who ensure they give nothing away but still generate a good feeling about their corporations. What do we really learn from them about the way business actually works, and the way decisions are taken?
These reservations may explain why Global Business often seems to be a chief executive free zone, largely because it seems that the top people do not have very much to tell us about business.
John Chambers is an exception, and that’s why he’s this week’s solo interviewee. Mr Chambers has been CEO of Cisco for the past 14 years, and chairman since 2006.
At one stage, at the height of the dot-com bubble nine years ago, Cisco was the most valuable company in the world in terms of stockmarket value.
Cisco has been riding the Internet wave ever since it was started as a way of linking Stanford University departments together.
It is one of the remarkable Silicon Valley companies spawned by that university : Sun Microsystems and Google are two others, and it is absolutely certain that there are still many more to come.
Cisco’s core business is still doing the plumbing for the Internet - providing the routers and the software that enable billions of bits of information to shoot all over the world, driving the most remarkable network that the world has ever seen.
When I met John Chambers at a Cisco European jamboree in Barcelona a few weeks ago, I wanted to know how he and his company were riding the credit crunch induced recession, and whether he had insights that may help other business people in a similar position.
Cisco is no longer the most valuable company in America (is there one?) but it has garnered a storehouse of $28-billion in cash that it can use to bring to market a whole stream of new business opportunities thrown off by the core business of routing information.
In particular, the company is placing big hopes on the ever-expanding need for bandwidth, the diameter of the Internet pipes that enable more and more information to be moved at ever higher speeds.
Last year we used the thoughts of the great bandwidth apostle George Gilder to try to gain some insights into the way the great global Internet connections are a driving force of social and economic change. There is (he has been saying for 20 years now) almost infinite demand for bandwidth, which is expanding at something like the speed that computer power on a chip has been expanding for the past 35 years or more.
Even in global recession, John Chambers seem pretty upbeat about the future of his company.
But if you are surfing the sort of wave of change that comes along every 100 years or so, then perhaps you may be permitted a little confidence. And a rather rare CEO appearance on Global Business. | 2019-04-20T18:24:05Z | https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0028gcl |

We are a generation of dreamers. Armed with the notion that we can be whatever we want, not only do we have a large degree of freedom, but a great deal of expectation. If our possibilities are endless, we feel as though there is less reason than ever not to succeed.
Consider this the first hurdle in pursuing our dreams: trying and failing. It’s a fear that lurks in the back of our minds, causing us to doubt our course of action, or to throw in the towel entirely. The truth is, failure isn’t the only thing standing in the way of our goals. But challenges this big don’t exist to become a deathbed regret.
Pursuing our dreams is the hardest thing we will ever do, but it can open doors to fulfilment and happiness that will have us treasuring every day of our lives. Here’s the reality of pursuing our deepest desires.
Working towards our dreams is a long and drawn-out process. Even the bits we think will be straightforward end up giving us trouble. But big dreams often mean big sacrifices and none more so than our time.
Research and grafting will drain our time away, but if its work we love, how can we complain? The late nights and the long days might take their toll, but we carry with us a sense of fulfilment that gets us through.
It’s not enough to just graft when working towards our goals. No matter how much we prepare beforehand, it isn’t long into our journeys that we realise we have a lot to learn, and if we hope to move forwards, we have no choice. The dreamers who don’t make it to the next step of their journeys either decide or insist that they don’t need to learn anything more, and this is a fatal error.
In the world I am most accustomed to – the author world – the dreamers that stagnate in terrible book sales are often the people who at one point or another have stopped learning about their industry. Successful authors are no longer just good writers, they are also good marketers, and good networkers. Everything most introverted writers don’t want to be.
To move up we must learn, or we hit a glass ceiling that can’t be broken with brute force. We don’t need to change to achieve these dreams, but we must grow from seedling to blooming flower.
Big dreams bring with them big failures, but this doesn’t mean our future success is scuppered. The path to success is littered with failures, big and small. In fact, if we hope to succeed at all we should hope to fail, because failures will inevitably teach us something. Often, it is a lesson we desperately needed to learn.
No matter how much we learn, failures still hurt and can really drain our motivation. Experiencing many failures takes its toll, and we might doubt whether we really want to pursue such difficult goals. If we can vault that hurdle, we’ve avoided the biggest failure there is: giving up.
Success is often years away.
Ever hear the phrase “Rome wasn’t built in a day”? Our ultimate dreams are almost always huge and as such, they take some time. Years, maybe even decades, and sometimes our whole lives. If we ever hope to reach them, we need graft for a long time and most of the time the end is not even in sight. We need blind faith, a truckload of motivation and inexhaustible stamina. It’s a big ask of ourselves, but we have to be prepared for the long haul.
Lifelong dreams keep us going and give us something to aspire to. Without these dreams we would still be stuck in the dark ages. No electricity, no central heating, no Facebook *gasp.* There’s no guarantee we will ever achieve our dreams, but if we can accept the hurdles we might face, we stand a chance of reaching the stars. | 2019-04-23T01:59:59Z | http://www.projectwednesday.org/4-reasons-why-pursuing-your-dreams-is-the-hardest-and-most-rewarding-thing-youll-ever-do/ |

How do Lower Back Injuries Occur?
People in Phoenix and Scottsdale seek lower back pain treatment for a variety of reasons. You may engage in sports a bit too enthusiastically; work extended hours at your desk in a bad position of posture for too long; or wrestling with your teenage son or daughter. Regardless of the cause of the lower back pain, it is necessary to seek professional treatment from a team approach. The professionals at Phoenix pain treatment have cut through the Red Tape that often exists between medical doctors and doctors of chiropractic to bring our practice members the best that medicine and chiropractic offers.
Some people, mostly men and rarely women, bear the pain for a few days or weeks in the hope that it will pass. These people believe that if the pain passes then they are healthy and really don’t need to see a doctor. The “Popular Press” says that most back pain will go away in one or two weeks. But what the “Popular Press” doesn’t tell you is that just because the pain goes away doesn’t mean that you are healthy and that your back is fine. These magazines don’t mention the fact that if you have suffered with lower back pain there usually is a structural or functional reason as to why you experienced this pain. More importantly you could still having an underlying structural problem that does not produce pain but over time becomes much worse until you do suffer the next bout of back pain. This is typical of someone who sneezes and their back will “go out” or they were just bending over to pick up a pencil and their back went out. Truth is they were an accident waiting to happen because they didn’t fix their back correctly the first time.
People in the greater Phoenix and Scottsdale area seeking lower back pain treatment have issues originating in one or more common areas and should choose Phoenix pain treatment. The spine and muscles in the back are usually the main culprit producing lower back pain. Most problems originating in bones of the spine are a result of being misplaced or Subluxated. Other times the spaces between the bones called discs become Herniated discs, torn discs, and ruptured discs are common problems that can be successfully treated with chiropractic and interventional pain management. In addition, a lot of back pain originates from back muscles that have been strained or pulled. Those suffering from sore, aching, and painful backs, are usually suffering from muscle ailments.
At Phoenix pain treatment we offer a variety of protocols that address the pain and inflammation with interventional pain management and correction of the structural or mechanical cause of your back pain with chiropractic management.

As with any other airline positions, air hostess jobs can be tough to find. While many airlines hire air hostesses in large groups in the hopes of staving off high turnover, many hostesses stay with their job due to the benefits and perks associated with these positions. As such, openings for air hostess positions are filled quickly and the job market is competitive. However, qualified professionals can find air hostess jobs by using the right resources. The key is not to use just one resource to find a job but perform a detailed, comprehensive job search.
Air hostess aspirants should first consult with airlines directly in order to find graduate training programs and open jobs for experienced with professionals. All major airlines and most regional carriers have websites that feature employment pages. These pages offer detailed information about the life of an air hostess, compensation, and other benefits to these positions. An air hostess should consult with multiple airlines in their desired geographical location, whether it is the United Kingdom or elsewhere in Europe, in order to gain the best view of the hostess jobs market. After consulting with airlines directly, an air hostess aspirant should check out general job sites in order to find their dream job.
Indeed, general job sites offer listings for all manner of airline jobs that are updated daily to meet the needs of millions of users. Job sites typically have specific links to airline or air hostess jobs, with a detailed listing that can help an applicant determine if it is the job for them. The best part of the general job site, though, is that most feature a CV submission option that allows the application process to last only a few minutes. With a few clicks, an air hostess can connect to dozens of employers.
Finally, but most importantly, air hostesses should consult with recruiting agencies in order to find their ideal position. These agencies have recruiters that assess an individual applicant's strengths and weaknesses, allowing them to promote their applications to a wide range of employers. Agencies develop exclusive relationships with their corporate clients, including airlines, guaranteeing an air hostess gains a competitive advantage over their colleagues. Air hostess recruits can also gain professional development through their agency and speak one-on-one with an experienced recruiter to assess their career options. Air hostesses need to assess the job market, find their ideal employer, and do what they need to do to land their dream job. | 2019-04-25T05:45:20Z | http://www.permianplayhouse.org/resources_for_open_air_hostess_jobs_352602a.html |

SUTHERLAND SPRINGS, Texas - With 26 people dead and 20 people injured at the hands of New Braunfels resident Devin Patrick Kelley, a shooting a the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs has gone down as the deadliest shooting in Texas history.
Here's everything we know about the shooting.
Authorities said Kelley walked into the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs at 216 4th Street around 11:30 a.m. Sunday and opened fire on the congregation killing 26 and injuring 20 others. YouTube videos of previous sermons indicate the church maintains a congregation of about 50 people.
Wilson County Sheriff Joe Tackitt said 26 people were killed and 20 people were injured in the shooting. Eight victims were taken to Brooke Army Medical Center, nine were taken to University Hospital and others were taken to Connally Memorial Medical Center in Floresville, along with other area hospitals. Most victims' identities have not yet been released.
A witness said Kelley was in tactical gear when he stormed into the church and began shooting. Kelley fled the church in a car and led authorities on a brief chase into Guadalupe County.
ABC News confirmed Kelley was previously a U.S. Air Force member who served in Logistics Readiness at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico from 2010 until his discharge in 2014. An Air Force spokesperson told ABC News he was court-martialed in 2012 for two counts of Article 128 UCMJ, Assault on his spouse and assault on their child. He received a bad conduct discharge, confinement for twelve months and a reduction to the grade of E-1.
A law enforcement source told ABC News that the Ruger rifle used in the church shooting was purchased from Academy Sports & Outdoors in San Antonio. The sports retailer has 240 locations. Officials said Monday Kelley purchased 2 guns in Texas and two guns in Colorado in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 -- one gun a year. Officials did not say when in 2017 he purchased the latest gun.
Academy Sports + Outdoors sends our deepest condolences to the families of the victims and the entire Sutherland Springs community. Based on information we received from law enforcement, we confirmed that the suspect purchased two firearms from two San Antonio locations, one in 2016 and one in 2017. We also confirmed that both sales were approved by the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). We are cooperating with law enforcement as they investigate further.
Several emergency vehicles were seen at the intersection of Hartfield and Sandy Elm Roads in La Vernia, approximately 11 miles away from the church. Witnesses told KSAT 12's Garrett Brnger that the gunman wrecked at that intersection.
Sources told KSAT 12's Erica Hernandez that Kelley killed himself after leading authorities on a short chase.
Officials told ABC News Kelley was in his 20s and from New Braunfels.
Summer Caddell told KSAT 12's Garrett Brnger her boyfriend Johnnie Langendorff helped chase down the shooter. Langendorff told his girlfriend he saw Kelley running from the church as a neighbor returned fire. He said Kelley got into an SUV and sped away. Read that report HERE.
Kelley called his father while he was being chased and told him he had been shot and “didn’t think he was going to make it,” officials said at Monday’s press conference.
Several law enforcement agencies have responded to the mass shooting including the Wilson County Sheriff's Office, the FBI, ATF and Guadalupe County Sheriff's Office. Councilman Rey Saldana said the "San Antonio Fire Department assets and units have been deployed to Sutherland."
Law enforcement officials secured a video from inside the church. The video is being used as part of the investigation.
According to the Handbook of Texas, Sutherland Springs had a population of 362 in 2000.
The second deadliest mass shooting in modern Texas history occurred on Oct. 16, 1991. The gunman, George Hennard, drove through a Luby's in Killeen and opened fire on Luby's customers killing 24 people. | 2019-04-24T08:46:47Z | https://www.ksat.com/news/here-s-everything-we-know-about-the-sutherland-springs-church-shooting-that-left-more-than-20-dead |

Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has challenged key stakeholders managing the country’s athletes to re-orient their minds from just participating in athletics championships to winning medals for the nation.
He explained that the nation’s presence could be felt if she outlined pragmatic talent development policies and programmes that are consistent with international best practices to achieve the set goals.
He observed that Ghanaians naturally had astronomical, physiological and motor qualities that are similar to that of Jamaicans because of the historic relations in ancestry.
Mr Isaac Kwame Asiamah, the Minister of Youth and Sports, in an address, said government was using scientific approach by developing equipment and sports facilities for sports development.
Consequently, the Ministry has embarked on massive infrastructural development across the country so create sufficient space for young people to groom their talents, Mr Asiamah said.
Efforts have also been made to ensure the facilities are maintained to serve both the present and future generations. | 2019-04-24T12:02:56Z | https://www.ghanabusinessnews.com/2019/03/16/ghana-must-win-medals-not-just-participate-bawumia/ |

What’s one way you can stretch your mind today? Maybe wear your belt backwards or walk into a meeting with curiosity instead of anticipation of the weekend? Change something up. YOU STRETCH YOUR MIND WHEN YOU CHALLENGE YOUR OWN ASSUMPTIONS, REFLECT ON THE WAY YOU THINK AND DO + MAKE A SMALL SHIFT IN YOUR HABITS. Sounds simple, right? Ha! It takes lots of experimenting with new ways before we find what’s right for us.
This is what the STRETCH workshop is all about! Illuminate the ways you think, move and create so you can clarify what works best for you. You bring you. We bring the rest. | 2019-04-22T14:06:50Z | https://plexusinstitute.org/event/stretch-your-creativity/ |
TAYLORVILLE – Wanda Bottoms walked into Christian County Senior Citizens on Wednesday morning empty handed, but she walked out with answers and a bag of helpful information.
She was looking for help with her health insurance.
“Today was good. It was helpful. Someone was able to answer some questions and is going to call back to answer more,” Bottoms said.
DECATUR— The 62nd annual Farm Progress Show welcomed an extra 150,000 people to Decatur this week. The three-day expo brought international agribusiness leaders, thousands of customers and millions of dollars of economic impact to Decatur and Central Illinois.
State Senator Andy Manar (D-Bunker Hill) welcomes influx of visitors and the added attention for Decatur.
“These companies come from around the world to showcase their work unveiling new innovations, and Decatur is at the heart of it. Farming and agribusiness is the largest component of Illinois’ economy and this is an example of that strength,” Manar said.
Manar toured the exhibits, watched presentations by industry representatives and saw new developments in agricultural technology with other lawmakers Wednesday.
“There are over 600 vendors and attendees who come from around the country and the world. They get hotel rooms, eat at local restaurants and visit city businesses,” Manar said.
The 2.3 million square foot Progress City USA that houses the Farm Progress Show every-other year was recently expanded because of increased demand by vendors. It is the nation's largest trade show. | 2019-04-20T04:47:06Z | http://senatorandymanar.com/?start=400 |
Kinsie has just released a little mod for ZDoom that is supposed to be a solution for the D_RUNNIN-rage: A Floppy Disk Full of Midis. Jimmy's Jukebox is a pretty good mod with lots of music. Unfortunately, he found it bugging out when playing certain gameplay mods like Demonsteele, and its ACS is so hilariously complex that he couldn't possibly fix it himself. Demonsteele came with a music randomiser, and Term let me use the code to make his own variant. So after combining Term's and Jimmy's code, the result is a mod that has 314 songs from Doom, Hexen, Heretic and other related music to flick between and fits on a floppy disk. A more detailed information can be found at the development thread over at ZDoom.org including a download. | 2019-04-20T06:30:17Z | https://realm667.com/index.php/en/home/archiv/75-community-news/1666-a-floppy-disk-full-of-midis |

…..One of the greatest themes that is seen in the Bible from beginning to end is the theme of forgiveness. God has chosen to forgive those who humbly come to Him in faith and trust in Jesus Christ as their savior. Many of the Old Testament stories are written to help us understand the concept of forgiveness to one another and how God forgives us. The New Testament is filled with stories of people who have changed lives because of God’s forgiveness. They are examples of how we should live today in light of God’s forgiveness in our lives.
Why do You forgive us? We shout praises to You when we sing worship. With the same tongue we curse other people that are made in Your image. (James 3:9 reference) Why do You forgive us? We say we love You and still keep sinning. Why do You forgive us? We spend time in prayer thanking You for your blessings and then we refuse to bless others. Why do You forgive us? We read our Bibles when we make time for it, but we also read other nonsense that is offensive to You. Why do You forgive us? We praise Jesus for His death on the cross for the atonement of our sins and then we nail Him to it again every time we trespass against You. Why do You forgive us every single time? I am so thankful for your endless supply of forgiveness! I can’t fathom how You do it, for I am only one man. You do this for every single person! The compassion and grace and mercy that flow from You is absolutely amazing and I love You for it! Thank you so much for forgiving me every time I sin! You are worthy to be praised! Amen. | 2019-04-22T22:10:27Z | http://trinitylutherangb.org/pray-for-forgiveness/ |

Due to the sustainability agenda there are today signs of a reconfiguration of practices and institutions in the construction industry, which in turn gives rise to changed interrelations between professional groupings leading to new (as well as fading) and/or changed professions and roles. Being creators, carriers and executors of the sustainability agenda, sustainability professionals have taken an increasingly important role in shaping the pace and direction of the construction industry´s sustainable development. However, there are also signs of these professionals struggling to find a role and identity among traditional built environment professionals. Professionalization and professionalism has thus become a key mechanism for sustainable development within the industry. The purpose of the proposed research project is to explore professionalization processes, professional roles and practices, as mechanisms of institutionalization towards enhanced sustainability. Adopting institutional work as a theoretical lens, we study institutional dynamics from an agentic and practice-oriented perspective, a theoretical approach suggested as viable for understanding the interrelation between professionalization and broader patterns of institutional change. The project is performed in collaboration with industry and strives to develop an interdisciplinary theoretical framework with the purpose of supporting both built environment professionals as well as future studies within the field. | 2019-04-26T00:24:54Z | https://research.chalmers.se/en/project/6870 |

Wiktor Doktór: Congratulations! Kerry, you have just did a significant change of image in your association. NOA (National Outsourcing Association) has become GSA UK. I must say I was a little bit shocked, surprised but at the end impressed with this change. Why did you decide to replace NOA with GSA UK?
Kerry Hallard: We are delighted with the rebrand and have received numerous compliments about how fresh ou new logo looks and what a sensible progression it was – of the brand and for the association. This is a global industry and the words National (pertaining to British in our case) and also European were actually falsely describing our work and potentially limiting our reach, as was the word “outsourcing”. The rebrand was something we had been planning internally for well over a year and we included our membership base in its development. Also, there was always some confusion on the relationship between the NOA and EOA, with many rightly wondering why the NOA was not called the EOA UK. Obviously there is great heritage (30 years) in the NOA brand, but the time was right to rebrand both orgnisations and to portray a more globally integrated brand and integrated organisation working to one common view of industry best practice. The Global Sourcing Association (GSA) has a number of chapters and partners around the world. The NOA is now known as GSA UK. We coincided our rebrand with the launch of the Global Sourcing Standard – a world first for the sourcing industry, a standard which unifies buyers and service providers and works across all aspects of sourcing: outsourcing, shared services, GBS, automation and insourcing.
WD: UK as probably none of other European Countries has already nearly 30 years of outsourcing history. How didoutsourcing start in UK and what is the GSA UK role in this sector?
KH: The NOA started life in 1987 as the Network Outsourcing Association. It was founded by major buyers to include British Telecom and British Rail who were grappling with how best to procure and manage their outsourced communications networks. Buyers would come together in the evenings and discuss issues and ideas in a Central London pub. Over time the providers were invited to join these discussions to contribute their ideas and respond to questions. This evolved into an industry association focused on all types of outsourcing and then all types of sourcing, bringing together all parties involved in the outsourcing equation. The GSA UK served as the industry association, offering events for networking and sharing best practice, as well as lobbying Government. In the last 10 years it moved on to focus on professionalising the industry, with qualifications and now a global standard, as in the UK, outsourcing has been very much an accidental profession – something people found themselves working in due to TUPE transfers, rather than a career of choice – until now that is! Our focus today remains to grow the positive reputation and therefore reach of the global sourcing industry by accrediting the orgnisations and individuals working within it.
WD: There are a number of various outsourcing organizations Worldwide, what is very beneficial for the industry on the local levels. GSA UK is a part of something bigger – the Global Sourcing Association. What are the relations between those two organizations and what are the unique business opportunities GSA can offer to outsourcing companies?
KH: Outsourcing is by its very nature a global industry and it’s huge (it’s the second largest employer in the UK with over 2 million people working in some form of outsourcing), yet it’s been an industry without any standards. The GSA was approached by a number of its buy-side members saying they were running numerous large outsourcing arrangements across a number of service providers, all of whom were stating they worked to best practice, but all working to a diffferent version of best practice. They requested we developed a consolidated industry view of best practice. We responded with the development of a Lifecycle Model which has been reviewed and refined by over 200 unique organisations. Our buyer members then wanted to understand how well they were performing to this best practice which is when we developed our corproate accreditation programme, effectively reviewing a company’s outsourcing performance, highlighting areas of strength and weakness against the lifecycle model and accrediting those who were working to best practice. Buyers were achieving great benefits in cost savings and efficiency improvements from the corporate accreditation programme and so requested that we evolved the accreditation so their service providers could also be accredited and ensure they were working to the same best practice – in the UK and globally. This led to the development of the Global Sourcing Standard – a unified view of sourcing best practice that buyers and service providers can be accredited to globally. The Global Sourcing Standard is governed and revised by a Standards Advisory Group which has representatives on board from over 25 countries. But it’s more than a standard, it’s an approach to sourcing excellence and is underpinned by a competences and capabilities framework to ensure individuals have the skills to adhere to evolving best practice. Accredited companies on the buy-side can demonstrate to their stakeholders that they are governing their sourcing arrangements to best effect. Accredited service providers have a competitive advantage as they can demonsrate to their clients that they work to the global standard. Over time, we believe the standard will become a prerequisite for RFPs.
WD: As GSA you are running a number of education and networking projects. What are your key workshopsand events you run during the year?
KH: We run a full programme of informative and educational events, in part driven by our member-elected Council, which are free to attend for members. The subject matter is very diverse and focuses on best practice in topics ranging from governance and transparency in contracting, service integration and relationship management, to next practice topics like understanding and implementing robotics, being cybersecure and other ‘future skills’ like design thinking. In the UK alone we run over 40 events in a range of formats: SIGs, roundtables, seminars, networking evenings, Summits, etc. We also run two Awards programmes each year in the UK, and one in Europe. These aim to recognise and celebrate the individual efforts in sourcing excellence, as well as team, organisations and partnerships. In additon we have an annual UK Symposium in June and a Global Leadership Summit in October, which are two full days crammed with buyer-led case studies, practitioner best practice and thought leadership around all the critical subjects one would need to know in order to make informed decisions about future sourcing strategies. This year we have also introduced a full-day programme specifically for the UK Public Sector (local and central government departments who use outsourcing), another full-day event aimed at the Banking, Financial Services and the Insurance sector, a Women in Sourcing initiative focusing on social inclusion, the Sourcing A-List which recognises the most prominent global influencers and thought leaders in the industry and of course our first ever sourcing European Hackathon for charity. All of these events were free, and also open to non-members.
WD: You have recently run the interesting conference in Sofia. A number of companies were awarded over there. Can you share more information about your awards program, please? What do companies need to do, to get the award?
KH: This year we had 18 Award categories, again all of which are focused on recognising the very best in sourcing delivery, partnerships or innovation in the industry across Europe. Each individual category has its own specific criteria and submissions are word-based, but all are assessed broadly against submitted evidence of strategy, partnership approach, benefits realisation, best practice and governance, and innovation. The judging panel included leaders from outsourcing associations and major buyers across the world including USA, China, Russia, Spain and Poland.
WD: Due to Brexit there are a number of theories but also expectations. Do you think UK will become more openfor nearshoring and offshoring projects once Brexit will become the fact? Is Brexit an opportunity or rather risk for local outsourcing providers?
KH: I hate to sit on the fence, but it’s hard not to on the subject of Brexit as so many factors remain unknown. We have however seen outsourcing deals increase since the Referendum and this, I believe, is due to the fact that buyers perceive less risk in outsourcing to a service provider than making their own capital investments at this juncture. We have seen India be very bullish in the space, but I believe there are great opportunities for the CEE region too. At the end of the day the UK doesn’t have enough skilled workers as it is and we may witness an exodus when Brexit actually happens, which will leave many companies needing to seek workers overseas. Given the skilled pool of workers in the CEE region, the area is likely to be a net winner. Though of course some sectors will face challenges, such as passporting in financial services and the impact of the European Open Skies Agreement for the airline industry.
WD: We like to ask about possible trends in outsourcing industry. What do you think next 12 months will bring to global outsourcing world – is it RPA (Robotics Process Automation), which is spoken on nearly every business event or something else what will drive the outsourcing industry in coming months?
KH: Brexit aside….RPA and AI will continue to be hot topics, but conversations are already moving on to how best to manage, ethically, the digital workforce and drive the digital enterprise. I know Goverrnment agencies are looking at taxes on the use of Bots, to replace revenue lost through income tax. Customer centricity and big data will continue as key topics, as will cloud and IoT. FinTech players are getting a lot of attention as they unveil amazing new digital solutions that are real game changers for the industry. This will spread as digital gathers electrifying momentum. Cyber security will correspondingly increase in focus too. We are predicting strong focus on “OneOffice™” – this is a concept from HfSResearch focused on back and front office converging to deliver the ultimate digital customer experience. And everything will be about new and evolving on-demand service models as legacy gets further consigned to the past. The sourcing industry continues to change at alarming speed across outsourcing shared services, GBS and also, moreso now than before across insourcing. Governance is evolving and will of course remain key. | 2019-04-21T03:05:10Z | http://www.outsourcingportal.eu/en/pro-progressio-business-talks-kerry-hallard-ceo-from-global-sourcing-association-uk |

My question is, currently I am taking Medroxyprogesterone in order for my period to begin. Then I will be on BCP for 1 month and only then will I be able to start my 2nd round of ivf. (which now will probably be mid-end september . However, I was wondering when is it ok to begin taking folic acid? Can you take it with BCP or better yet is it ok to take it with all of the shots that I will be taking in september.
Hey. Folic acid is so necessary for pregnant women. It is important that you have a healthy level of it in your body prior to the start of your pregnancy. So, I would suggest you start off on the supplements a couple of months prior to your IVF treatment. Also, try to consume natural ingredients that are rich in folic acid. For example, spinach. Above all, ask your doctor if the folic acid will clash with your current medications or shots. If yes, then ask him for a solution.
I think Asnat123 has covered all the aspects of the posted query. I'd like to add that because folic acid is a prenatal vitamin, and considering it increases the success rates during IVF treatment, taking it with BCP should seemingly be fine. Anyhoo, it's always better to check with your specialist. | 2019-04-20T12:56:54Z | https://health.ccm.net/forum/affich-31820-folic-acid-question |

The yellow-crowned night heron is a short, stocky wading bird about 24 inches in length with a wingspan of a little under four feet. It has long yellow to orange legs, red eyes, a black bill, and a short neck. It has a slate gray body, a black head with a white streak on the side of its face and a yellowish-white crown. In breeding season it has a yellow plume of feathers on its head. Males and females look alike. Immature yellow-crowned night herons are a mottled grayish-brown.
The yellow-crowned night heron breeds from southern New England south to Florida and west to Texas. It also breeds along the Mississippi River. It winters on the Gulf and Atlantic Coasts.
The yellow-crowned night heron lives in wooded swamps, fresh and saltwater marshes and thickets.
The female lays three to five eggs on a nest of sticks placed in a tree or sometimes on the ground. Both the male and female build the nest and incubate the eggs. The eggs hatch in about three weeks. Both parents care for the chicks and feed them regurgitated food. The chicks fledge when they are about 25 days old. | 2019-04-21T12:30:56Z | http://www.nhptv.org/natureworks/yellowcrownednightheron.htm |

Brother Genuine TN221Y Yellow Toner Cartridge.
Professional color laser print quality you can consistently rely on for 1,400 pages.
Brother Genuine toner produces rich, vibrant prints that withstand the test of time.
Printer sent message toner was nearing depletion, so I ordered this OEM cartridge from Sam's Club, expecting it would take awhile to arrive. Best price and free delivery. Had the cartridge in just a few days, and have not yet needed to replace the old one. I've used ink jet and laser printers for over 30 years, and learned a long time ago to stick with OEM products. May cost more, but quality and longevity is always superior.
I put this toner cartridge in my printer and now it works all over again. There wasn't much rejoicing but I felt ok about it. You pays your money and you gets to print again.
the high yield toners are doing quite well, would like to be able to buy high yield black as well, since it is what I use the most. would be good for my business. would not be good for Brother's business, since the black toner sells would drop.
Love the speedy delivery service & great price for Brother toners.

I hereby recommend Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro. He's a Japanese born, British author...I mention this because I think it's relevant to the novel and some of the ideas contained within and especially the setting.
I really enjoyed the novel and the ideas within. Destiny...the meaning of soul...nature vs. nurture...as well as some of the ethical and moral questions raised about what people will do to survive...and what they won't.
There happens to be a movie that was released into yonder mainstream that somewhat mirrors this novel's..motif? Underlying structure perhaps...Regardless, I enjoy the contrast. It makes me wonder which is more correct, or perhaps where reality would intersect the two.
I am going to look up this gentleman's other works and see if I can enjoy them as much as I enjoyed this. If you happen to know about the author or get motivated to read this...let me know.
P.S. I really do hope this new icon means Monkey in Chinese. It's supposed to!
The icon has got the correct left-half to match the Monkey kanji I know, but the right half is way off.
http://japanese.about.com/blkod1043.htm has a picture of the version I'm used to -- but that probably just means that you've got a slightly different species for your UPic.
Well, it did specifically come from a 'Year of the Monkey' re chinese zodiac, so...maybe that's it?
Well, I suppose if it's on a calendar it's probably right.
^_^* It's been how many years since I've brushed up on my kanji?
It was on a meme quiz type thing, so I wouldn't go so far as to saying it was 'right'. Point of fact, I meant to go back to said meme and refill it out and post it. Hopefully this time without my computer crashing horrible like. | 2019-04-21T19:22:16Z | https://daimones.livejournal.com/131890.html |
Hello. I’m Steph, a 30-something bookworm living in beautiful Athens Georgia with my husband Dean, our cats Matilda Cackle and Agent Cooper, and an old lady doxie named Olive. This is my diary and project scrapbook.
The name ‘Hometown Unicorn’ is stolen from a really good song by Super Furry Animals.
O hi! Thanks so much for stopping by- I love your photos!
Mishka, you’re right! It’s crazy how versatile this layout is. Halloween enthusiasm and WordPress theme solidarity- awesome.
Hi! Thanks for your nice comment on my blog…popped by to say that I think yours is le awesome and I will be back for another visit.
Yay! Your blog was a good find- I’m always on the lookout for cool, crafty ones.
I also love Breaking Bad! Just bought Season 4 today. I heard AMC might be dropped, though, which means BB would be as well. Hope not!
Well, it’s going into it’s last season which I’m pretty sure will be mind-blowing!
I lived in the neighborhood where Rushmore was filmed. I am a reluctant fan of Breaking Bad; some of the episodes have been unbelievably painful. Congrats on Fresh Press — great photos and it looks like Very Big Fun where you are!
Oh, hello back! And thanks!
Saw your blog a few times and it made me a little homesick! Thanks for sharing your adventures in my hometown!
Neat blog! Congrats on getting hitched!
Thank you! Just checked out your photos- very cool!
I just read through a good part of your blog. I really enjoyed it! Your wedding post especially resonated with me, because I am also having a hard time mustering up excitement for my wedding.
Oh, thanks for stopping by! I liked reading through your blog too. :) Yeah, the wedding aspect of being married was never the main thing for us… tho that being said, being married itself has been pretty rad!
Love all your pictures! And I’m jealous of you craftiness… I like to imagine I’m that crafty but really that’s all it is – imagining.
thanks so much! I’ve actually taken an unplanned creative hiatus but I should start making stuff again soon. I think most people are crafty- hope you give it a shot!
Hey there, just stumbled across your blog. I love your blog header, did you make it yourself? If I ever need a guide to America I’ll know where to look!
Oh, thanks! Yep, made the header by hand drawing the letters and adding some hastily painted watercolor textures in Photoshop.
Well it looks great! I love the fabric like textures of the letters against the glitter. | 2019-04-26T04:14:14Z | https://hometownunicorn.com/about/ |

Well it’s six months since my last post so lots to catch up on. I have spent the summer at Malvern, occasionally back here at London and managed six weeks in my third home Pegomas which is a small village outside Cannes on the Cote d’Azur. Great painting and photography country with that strong Mediterranean light, the sea and the mountains.
So, in the Gallery at the moment I’m showing images from a range of locations, mainly landscape subjects but will be adding (and subtracting) more pages with the best of the images from summer 2018.
I’ve had a bit of a shake out with my lenses over the past few months and have added a wide angle Nikon 18-35mm F4 and a Nikon 28-300mm F3.5-5.6. The wide angle choice was a no brainer as its so light, sharp, works well with the Lee filters using the 77mm WA adapter ring and shows no sign of vignetting. Now normally I wouldn’t really go for a super-zoom lens but after checking out the Nikon 28-300mm and being impressed with how sharp it was I purchased it to use as a daily carry around in France. Well it didn’t let me down, I managed some well lit, sharp shots from the wide end up to around 200mm. It does drop off a bit in its edge sharpness at the extreme end of the zoom but cropping can help with the worst of this. Nevertheless its one of the best super-zooms I’ve used and for the moment its in my travel bag. | 2019-04-20T14:43:58Z | https://www.daviddaviesphotos.com/blog/2018/10/13/its-been-a-while |

‘The Good Place’ Comes Back to Earth?
The Good Place is coming back to Earth!
TVLine revealed the first look at the Season 3 poster for the NBC comedy, which premieres September 27th, with a special one-hour episode. On it, we see Eleanor, Chidi, Tahani and Jason, joined by Michael and Janet, walking through a door that, presumably leads to Earth?
What do you think the show will bring in Season 3? One thing is for sure, this show always, always seems to throw a curveball we’re not expecting our way. Did I say one thing? Because another thing I’m really, really sure of, is that, wherever these characters end up – they’ll find their way back to each other.
So, are you excited for the new season? Share with us in the comments below! | 2019-04-24T17:48:59Z | http://fangirlish.com/the-good-place-comes-back-to-earth/ |

This month we will be working on peaceful bodies during relaxation. I will be bringing in battery operated candles that they can place on their tummies. I will encourage the children to breathe into their tummies and watch the candle rise and fall with their breath. I say, “please show me your peaceful bodies—” they love relaxation time. I put on soothing music and give back/tummy rubs to help calm the body/mind. I use visualizations (imaginary stories) that help the children dive deeper into relaxation.
We will be imagining that we are flying on a magic carpet. I will have them whisper in their magic carpet’s ear where they would like to go. We will then explore our special places as we release tension in the body.
The preschoolers will be working on side plank this month. This is a terrific pose to build whole body strength. If the students feel strong with the breath flowing, they can lift a leg and balance for 5 seconds. The toddlers will be working on partner ‘hands to hands.’ I will have them partner up and touch hands like a high 5. Then, on an inhale they will bring their hands up and on an exhale their hands will come down. This is great for social skills and collaboration.
Looking forward to some challenges mixed with some relaxation this month! | 2019-04-25T02:11:00Z | https://radiantbeginningsyoga.com/blog/201535toddlerprek-peaceful-bodies/ |

A British healthcare start-up has clinched new deals with two multinational giants in the wake of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s recent visit to the UK.
Medopad, a London-based firm which uses artificial intelligence to connect patients with clinicians, will partner with Johnson & Johnson and SAP in the aim of increasing the activity and exercise levels of Saudi Arabia’s population.
The deals are tied into the Crown Prince’s Vision 2030, which includes ambitious digital transformation goals. Last year, SAP announced a SAR 285 million investment to create a public cloud hub in Saudi Arabia to help deliver the kingdom’s digitisation plans.
Creating a more digital and connected healthcare ecosystem is part of the overall vision, and Medopad will play a key part in helping to drive this.
“As the Saudi population grows and ages, the healthcare ecosystem needs digital platforms to reduce complexity, optimise costs, and enhance daily lives,” said Khaled Alsaleh, managing director of SAP Saudi Arabia.
“Supporting Saudi Vision 2030, our partnership with Medopad and Johnson & Johnson leverages innovations, such as artificial intelligence, to enable patient self-care and to transform the healthcare experience,” he continued.
In its partnership with Johnson & Johnson, Medopad will look to address healthcare outcomes relating to cardiovascular disease, hypertension and diabetes, as well as to genetic and rare diseases.
Vishnu Kalra, managing director of Johnson & Johnson Janssen GCC, said: “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is witnessing unprecedented times with its bold vision, profound national transformation efforts and strong leadership.
It is hoped that by tackling the most pressing healthcare challenges and integrating global best practices in Saudi Arabia, Medopad will support the drive to increase the ratio of individuals exercising at least once a week from 13 per cent of the population to 40 per cent.
Medopad, which was founded in 2011, also plans to establish a Saudi base this year, which will help it deliver its goals in the kingdom.
She added: "We (along with our partners) are very committed to supporting Saudi Vision 2030".
The Crown Prince’s recent visit to the UK focused on broadening trade and investment ties and saw the signing of commercial deals worth more than $2 billion.
London and Riyadh concluded the visit by setting a further $90 billion trade and investment target for the coming years as London looks for post-Brexit markets and the kingdom pushes ahead with its plan for modernisation. | 2019-04-26T16:20:11Z | https://www.thenational.ae/world/europe/british-health-start-up-wins-saudi-deals-after-crown-prince-s-uk-visit-1.713507 |
In project time managing, defining the sequence and dependency of the activities is essential for documenting and recognising the relationship between each activities. The point is defining a logical sequence between tasks to do and increase efficiency during the project limitations. The sequence activity process includes inputs, tools and techniques, and output. (Figure 1) The input will be plan of scheduling management, list of activity, attribution of activity, milestone, scope and definition, environmental factors and organisation assets. The application tools and techniques are precedence diagramming method (PDM), dependency determination and leads & lags. The expected outputs are diagram of project schedule network and update of project documents.
The relationships between the activities of a project can be detected and documented in a process known as Sequence Activities, which are capable of considering the rational sequence of work and all project limitations to achieve the highest efficiency. At least a predecessor having a logical relationship of finish-to-start or start-to-start as well as minimum one successor having a logical relationship of finish-to-start or finish-to- finish in every activity and milestone, except for the first and last ones. A realistic and achievable project schedule should be considered in the design of logical relationships, which might be essentially supported using lead or lag time between the activities. In this context, project management software or manual or automated approaches can be beneficial in sequencing.
1. Schedule Management Plan (SMP): The SMP is a pre-project preventive thinking to identify several points, including the scheduling process involved in the project, thus helping the sequence activities.
2. Activity List : The activity list contains a critical pathway and basically a detailed documentation of all schedule activities required and sequenced for a particular project. The sequence activities can be affected by the dependencies and limitations that exist on the path to these activities.
3. Activity Attributes : Activity attributes generally refer to active components associated with an activity, which may be pivotal for sequencing for details like events, predecessors or successor.
4. Milestone List : The milestone list as a project management document may schedule all specific project milestones influencing sequence activities.
5. Project Scope Statement: The project scope statement is a good mean to describe the key deliverables of a project, including product properties involved in sequence activities like physical lineament of a project being implemented or the nature of a software project. Other scope statements of project can detail constraints and assumptions associated with sequence activities. Although these are mostly recorded in the activity list, their accuracy is explored as product scope description.
6. Enterprise Environmental Factors: The success of sequence activities is depended on either internal or external enterprise environmental factors (EEFs), including government regulations, industry conditions, project management information system (PMIS), scheduling tool, or work authorisation system (WAS).
7. Organizational Process Assets : Another factor contributing to the sequence activities is the organizational process assets (OPAs), including project plans of the corporate, formal or informal policies, procedures, processes, scheduling methods to developing logical relationships, and templates required for providing networks of project activities. Sequence activities can benefit from additional descriptive data provided by information related to activity characteristics in templates.
The PDM is a common visual tool to draw a diagram of project schedule network, which depicts graphical rectangles known as nodes, connected by one or more logical relationships to represent activities in these boxes. A precedence diagram is shown with the aid of activity-on-node (AON) strategy that is applied frequently within project management software. There are four logical relationships or dependencies in the package of PDM, including finish-to-start (FS), finish-to-finish (FF), start-to-start (SS), and start-to-finish (SF), containing a predecessor activity depicted logically prior to a dependent activity of a schedule, and a successor activity as a dependent activity depicted logically after another activity of a schedule.
In a logical relationship of FS, a successor activity can be advanced when the predecessor activity has finished; for instance, the ceremony of awards (the successor activity) can be advanced when the competition (the predecessor activity) has elapsed.
In a logical relationship of FF, a successor activity can finish when a predecessor activity has finished; for instance, a document editing (the successor activity) can end when a document writing (the predecessor activity) has finished.
In a logical relationship of SS, a successor activity can be advanced when a predecessor activity has advanced; for instance, Level concrete (the successor activity) can be advanced when a pour foundation (the predecessor activity) has advanced.
In a logical relationship of SF, a successor activity can be ended when a predecessor activity begins; for instance, the first shift of security guard (the successor activity) can be ended when the second shift of security guard (the predecessor activity) begins.
The most and the least commonly used logical relationships in the PDM are FS and SF, respectively. However, all of these logical relationships are present in a complete list of the PDM.
The characterizations considered in determining the dependencies included mandatory or discretionary and internal or external properties. Four dual attributes have been defined for the dependencies, consisting of a) mandatory external dependencies, b) mandatory internal dependencies, c) discretionary external dependencies, and d) discretionary internal dependencies.
Mandatory dependency refers to legal or contractual activities that must be happen inherently in the tasks, mostly including physical limitations. For example, it is mandatory to build a foundation in a construction project to continue to erect the superstructure; or a prototype in an electronics project cannot be tested until it must be produced. Another classification for the mandatory dependencies is hard logic or dependencies. Technical activities may not be placed in mandatory dependencies. Determination of mandatory dependencies in the process of sequence activities is undertaken by the project management team. The program's limitations in the scheduling tool should not be mistaken with mandatory dependencies.
Discretionary dependencies may be known as preferred logic, preferential logic, or soft logic. The behind principle of discretionary dependency is to understand the best strategies in certain or unusual domains of a project to reach targeted sequence in spite of other satisfactory sequences. It is essential to document all aspects of discretionary dependencies due to the presence of any total float value and limited later scheduling options. The modification or deletion of the discretionary dependencies should be taken while using fast tracking strategies. Determination of discretionary dependencies in the process of sequence activities is undertaken by the project management team.
External dependencies that are typically out of the control of the project team refer to a relationship between activities of project and out of project. For instance, an external source is required to deliver hardware to test a software project or the initiation of preparing a site in a construction project depends on governmental environmental hearings. Determination of external dependencies in the process of sequence activities is undertaken by the project management team.
Internal dependencies that are typically under the control of the project team refer to a precedence relationship between project activities. For instance, an internal mandatory dependency can be mentioned to inability of a team to test a machine until assembling. Determination of internal dependencies in the process of sequence activities is undertaken by the project management team.
1. Project Schedule network diagrams: The logical relationships are graphically drawn called as project schedule network diagram, also referred to as dependencies among the project schedule activities, which is prepared by manual manner or project management software. The diagram can represent full details or summarized activities of the project. A summary narrative can be illustrated with a diagram to show the used fundamental strategy in sequencing the activities, and to describe any abnormal sequence of activity on the network.
2. Updates of project documents: There are needs to update the project documents, such as activity lists, activity attributes, milestone list and risk register.
Only, the project product description should be prepared for a small project.
Careful thinking is necessary to achieve quality criteria in order to distinguish whether a product is acceptable or not. A way to test quality criteria is to scrutinise the distinction between completed or stopped working on this product.
Product-based planning is a method for identifying first a product requirements and second all activities, dependencies and necessary resources to deliver that product. This method has different applications such as Project planning, Stage planning and Team planning. The sequence involved in the development of products of the plan will be developed and the identification of their dependencies should be detected and defined, which is possible using a product flow diagram (PFD). The dependencies on any non-project products can be detected through this diagram, thereby providing the required activities and data for other planning approaches like estimating and scheduling.
The PFD is generated by the Project or Team Manager. However, the people responsible for developing or helping the plan products can be involved rationally.
When the product breakdown structure (PBS) has been drawn, some planners will decide to generate the PFD along with the PBS.
There is need for very few symbols in drawing the PFD. It is essential to detect any developed product (for instance, enclosure in a rectangle), and to exhibit any required sequence (for instance, interconnection of rectangles by arrows) in the plan. Moreover, the external products should be clear as any existing or non-project ongoing products (for instance, enclosure in a different shape like ellipse).
The PFD may be added with a starting point attached from all entry points. Although an exit is always available in the PFD, when many entrances exist, this position indicator prevents any of them from being ignored. The symbol of predecessor is there for all points of entry and is the only symbol in PFD not in PBS.
A separate list of the activities can be provided in spite of the use of PFD as the information source.
The required activities can be detected by using the products from the PBS or the work breakdown structure (WBS).
The activities involve management and quality-checking activities, and those required for developing the specialist products or for interacting with external parties like those that a product obtained from an outside source or for transforming external products into targeted ones. It is needed to shield the spread of activities unnecessary for the plan. Things should be kept simple if there is any doubt.
It is necessary to identify any internal and external dependencies of activities and products. For example, Activity C cannot start unless activities A and B are completed (as an internal dependency). Dependency of a delivery of a product needed for a project by another project, suggestion of a purchase order by the user and decision-making by the program manager are examples of the external dependencies.
In the wake of detecting the activities, and estimating related dependencies, duration and effort, the subsequent step is to approximate the optimal sequence required. This is an iterative step because the estimated effort and duration may be influenced by actual resource allocation.
Float or slack refers to the amount of time by which a given task in a project network can be delayed with no influence on the deadline for the project, which can be considered as both provision within the plan and spare time. Zero float means a condition with no excess time between activities, which defines a critical activity through the diagram (critical path). In fact, it can be claimed that any delay in the completion of an activity in the critical path (s) will result in delayed completion of the entire project.
The project manager will be able to monitor the plan’s activities by detecting the critical path (s) of the plan. Such activities should be timely completed in order to complete the whole plan in accordance with scheduling. Delay can occur for these activities for a period if resources are re-allocated to compensate for lost activities.

Grantfen supply and install advanced electronic access control systems that are capable of both monitoring and controlling entry and exit through selected doors from single numbers up to thousands and a virtually limitless numbers of users.
Grantfen’s systems can use many different types of reader and lock technology. Any site may have several different types of card reader varying from simple magstripe and pin code, proximity cards/tags through to advanced biometric technology. Each card or biometric credential is encrypted onto the system and assigned by the Administrator to the relevant user.
Modern Access control systems can be easily linked to human resource software systems which automatically transfer access rights for a new member of staff when they are enrolled. This reduces the need for Administrators to duplicate data inputting, and so minimising any additional costs.
By fully integrating the access control with other systems such as CCTV, Grantfen can access live or recorded images that are associated with access control events. Incidents such as a door being forced, left open or a reported stolen card being used at a reader would cause the local camera to capture images of the specific episode and distribute them effectively to an email recipient. | 2019-04-21T08:20:38Z | http://www.grantfen.com/index.php/access-control/ |

Have you purchased Bitcoin and now look for Bitcoin ATM? It is a challenge taking into accountslow development of global cryptocurrency infrastructure. Despite big progress, this is small portionof proper amount of automated tellers. Bitcoin ATM near me is available around the clock but even this is insufficient to provide all customers living in the city with its service. For instance, ATM cash machine near me is located in central district. People living in remote areas have to spend an hour to reach described location.
This is evident that retail business needs convenient location and I am just lucky to have Bitcoin ATM machine near me as I live at the place with central transport junction nearby. Business should have a convenient setup to prosper and develop further. However, it is also important to note that comprehensive growth won’t take place with limited policy applied. Customers should see Bitcoin kiosks to know aboutsolid basis, reliability of technology. The approach requires huge investments but the results of such strategy pay off in the future. If they don’t start it now, some other companies will come to substitute them at the market.
Brand that installed ATM machine near mewas going to open more Bitcoin kiosks but nothing was done in this direction so far. The ATM companies neglect customers’ convenience. It is not enough just to announce about presence. Experts should do explanation work to increase the number of clients. Many entrepreneurs are not ready to act. Investing cash, they wait for profit without active work on their part. No wonder many of them are not able to win the competition over their business rivals. It happens to any businessman who pursues short-term goals.
Citizens of the city may not know about Bitcoin kiosks located in the bar or restaurant few people visit. The best way to determine the location of nearest ATM is to check up the map.

Douglas L. Connor was a Starkville physician and civil rights organizer. The son of Jerry Conner, a lumber yard worker, and Mary Elnora Washington Conner, a custodian for the telephone company, Conner was born in Hattiesburg on 25 October 1920. When he was twelve years old, his parents divorced, apparently because of his father’s alcoholism.
Connor suffered from the pervasive racial segregation of the time but believed that he was kept from despair because of his mother’s insistence that he was not inferior; the black history instruction he received in school; the role modeling of Dr. Charles Smith, a black Hattiesburg physician; and his education and reading. When he graduated from Eureka High School and earned a fifty-dollar scholarship to Alcorn A&M College, he dreamed of becoming a doctor.
His four years at Alcorn were another positive experience, as was the summer of his junior year, when he worked in the Connecticut tobacco fields with Polish laborers, who, he was amazed to discover, displayed no prejudice against him. After graduating from Alcorn in 1943, he moved to Detroit and worked in a General Motors automobile plant to earn money for medical school. A year later he was drafted and entered the segregated military of World War II. While attending an integrated course for medical corpsmen at Walter Reed Army Hospital, he learned that he could hold his own with white people. On furlough before his assignment to Okinawa in 1945, Conner married Juanita Macon, the niece and ward of Starkville black leaders Robert and Sadye Wier. In the Pacific, Conner served under a physician who encouraged his dream of becoming a medical doctor and had the unusual experience of receiving more cordial treatment from the island’s people of color than did the white soldiers.
After his discharge from the army, the Conners moved to Chicago, where he worked for a summer in a steel mill. In the fall of 1946 he entered Howard University Medical School in Washington, D.C., and after his graduation he served an internship at the Homer G. Phillips Hospital, St. Louis’s major black health facility.
In 1951, with the encouragement of the Wiers, he began practicing medicine in Starkville. He served thousands of black patients and a handful of whites and became the acknowledged leader of the black community. He founded the Oktibbeha County chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, served in the county and state Democratic Party, and was a prominent member of the Second Baptist Church. He led marches, endured arrest, initiated lawsuits, and in various other ways served as the driving force behind the integration of the Starkville schools, the initiation of voting rights for black people, and the hiring of black clerks in the city’s downtown stores and banks.
Douglas and Juanita Conner raised two daughters, Sadye Yvonne, who became a pediatrician, and Eileen Yvette, a registered nurse. The Conners also took in a young boy, Richard Holmes, who in 1965 became the first black student at Mississippi State University and later a physician. After Douglas and Juanita divorced in 1987, he married Rhonda Taylor. He died in Starkville on 13 November 1998. Soon after his death, city leaders renamed Washington Street, the route of his many civil rights marches and the location of his office, Dr. Douglas L. Conner Drive. | 2019-04-24T20:08:08Z | https://mississippiencyclopedia.org/entries/douglas-l-conner/ |

A communication system that includes three-dimensional symbols (objects) and two-dimensional symbols (photographs and drawings) to support communication and language development. Rowland and Schweigert (2000) include photos and drawings because they are permanent and can be touched and manipulated and may have perceptual link to their referents.
To provide a receptive and expressive means of communication that allows reference to people, objects, places, concepts and events beyond the immediate context, and that fits the childs sensory and cognitive abilities and experiences.
To represent the concept of "drink" using a cup.
Parts of object: handle of a cup.
Artificially associated object: piece of plastic.
Tangible symbols that are tactile must be selected from the childs perspective.
Write the intended message clearly on the symbol to clarify the intent for the communication partner.
Consider the physical ability of the child to explore and manipulate tangible symbols.
Tangible symbols should be displayed to meet the childs learning needs, (e.g., in a calendar box, on a communication board, in a binder separated in categories, or on the place that the symbol represents).
Several symbols can be used together to compose a message.
Provide a continuum of communication options to children ranging from identical objects to line drawings.
Make relatively low demands on the childs cognitive, memory, and representational skills. Only require recognition from an array of symbols that are permanent.
Use of tangible symbols requires only a simple motor response from the child such as pointing, touching, picking up, extending, or looking at the symbol to make the message clear.
The size of symbols may be reduced over time to make them more portable.
Tangible symbols are not a conventional communication method and may not be understood by all communication partners or used consistently with the child.
Artificially associated objects may not be easily understood and associated with referents by some children.
The use of whole objects may not be portable.
Tangible Symbols represents a synthesis of information gained from Project SALUTEs focus groups, National Advisory Committee, staff activities, and a review of relevant literature such as the following bibliography. | 2019-04-19T06:50:45Z | http://projectsalute.net/Learned/Learnedhtml/TangibleSymbols.html |
Church stained glass often portrays really meaningful imagery for congregation members. The beautiful thing about religious stained glass is the way it can carry individualized messages pertinent to each worshipper and their personal worshipping process. These elegant, antique works of art are usually one-of-a-kind and held sacred to each church. That’s why proper preservation, through cleaning and strengthening, is so important to keep up with. When you consistently keep up with your stained glass’ needs, it can last for centuries, prolonging product life as well as prolonging the period of time required between restorations.
Depending on when your stained glass was installed, there have been many different means of reinforcements for the intention of protecting the stained glass panels. Some of these methods have since been proven harmful to stained glass, causing heat pockets that have led to yellowish tints, discoloration, as well as warped glass. Ensuring you have proper strengtheners and reinforcements is vital to prolonging your stained glass’ life and preventing permanent damage. Moisture is the root cause of deterioration for stained glass windows– although moisture is unavoidable, ensuring your stained glass doesn’t suffer from overexposure is easy avoidable with regular cleaning.
Lead Safety from Church Stained Glass Restoration on Vimeo.
Weekly wipe downs and cleanings can make such a significant difference when it comes to maintaining your church’s stained glass. When moisture is allowed to seep into your stained glass over long periods of time, it gives fungus and mold the opportunity to grow. Fungus and mold highly accelerates the deterioration process and can cause irreversible damage to your stained glass. It’s pertinent to not give mold a hospitable environment. | 2019-04-20T19:00:56Z | https://www.churchstainedglassrestoration.com/2018/04/11/importance-cleaning-strengthening-churchs-stained-glass/ |

Suda51’s eccentric charm is here, but the repetitive hack and slash gameplay brings it down.
Each time you enter the Death Drive, it’s advertised as jumping into an entirely new game. And while their themes have nothing to do with one another and the worlds don’t look alike, the vast gameplay similarities between them make this more of a gimmick than anything else. Instead of being distinct experiences, they wind up feeling like different levels of one incomplete whole.
The frequently zoomed out camera angles make the already dry levels look even more uninteresting.
Like previous No More Heroes games, Travis Strikes Again has a fixed camera angle that changes position depending on the scenario but shifts it to a top-down or side-scrolling perspective, depending on the game you are in. This locked angle feels weird in 2019, but it actually works pretty well. As each level is influenced by early 3D-era games, the environments and characters lack detail. It might look slightly better than No More Heroes 2, but that came out nine years ago. The frequently zoomed out camera angles make the already dry levels look even more uninteresting.
Your health and other UI necessities are relegated to the sides of the screen, which has large bars cropping the play area down into a 4:3 format. My guess is that Grasshopper wanted to mimic the old CRT TV look the Death Drive system would have used. It’s a jarring choice at first, but I got used to it quickly and eventually forgot the bars were even there.
The first game world you enter, Electric Thunder Tiger II, is a PS1-style platformer with an over the head camera angle that’s light on platforming elements and heavy on hack and slash action. It started out novel, but it wasn’t long before I learned the loop of each world. You enter a new area, forcefields go up to block your path, and literal video game bugs that look like strange variations of regular bugs spawn from beneath the ground in waves. This happens a lot. In every level. Over and over again.
Travis’ trusty Beam Katana has light, heavy, and charge attacks, but combat is mostly mindless hack and slash action, as the AI is neither smart nor particularly imposing. Raising the difficulty level makes the bugs harder to takedown, but it doesn’t make them any more intelligent. The Beam Katana has lost some of its luster in its move from the Wii to Switch. Where the Wiimote (and Move controller in the PS3 port) allowed for location-based attacks with motion controls, the button controls make combat less interesting and more formulaic. Recharging the Beam Katana is still done via motion controls by shaking the Joy-Con, Pro controller, or the console itself if playing in handheld mode. Thankfully, this requires only a very light shake due to the Joy-Con’s sensitive rumble feature. You can dodge roll when you need to get to safety or avoid enemy attacks, but I rarely felt the need to other than to recharge my weapon.
combat is mostly mindless hack and slash action, as the AI is neither smart nor particularly imposing.
Outside of hacking and slashing, skill chips are scattered throughout each game, with 24 in total, that can be assigned to the four face buttons. These spice up the gameplay, adding timed bombs, electric bursts, and a sweet ability that lets you fling a poor bug into other enemies like a bowling ball. My favorite was the V2 chip, which turns Travis into a spinning force of destruction, allowing you to chop through large groups of bugs in rapid succession. You also gain experience throughout, which can be manually used to increase Travis’ (or Bad Man’s) level to boost his health and attack. I often forgot to apply the experience points regularly, though it never made much of a difference.
Even with the different skills, the combat gets stale fairly quickly. I must have slaughtered thousands of generic bug-things in the 11 hours it took me to beat Travis Strikes Again. And the drab environments –from unimaginative buildings to simplistic woodlands to winding paths that don’t look like anything but walls and plain floors – fail to make familiar encounters feel fresh again. Even when the perspective changes to a sidescroller, like in Coffee and Doughnuts (a game about collecting coffee and doughnuts), the core concept remains the same.
Some of the games you play in the Death Drive Mk II feature different mechanics, but they are more window dressing than anything else. In Life is Destroy, you play from a top-down perspective in a suburban neighborhood. Hitting markers with your Beam Katana turns segments of the street in order to let you reach your destination. That puzzle mechanic is neat, and as the second game in the bunch I thought it might lead to more diversity of mechanics. But the brunt of your time in Life is Destroy is spent clearing out houses from the same bug enemies you saw in Electric Thunder Tiger II.
Longtime Suda51 fans will especially be excited to see that one of the game worlds, which connects to a previous game and has more interesting features and a better story arc than the others.
I felt similar tinges of disappointment when playing Golden Dragon GP and Killer Marathon. The former has several arcade drag racing sequences with rudimentary visuals that are actually pretty fun. But to carry onto the next race, you have to hack your way through a boring series of labyrinth floors. Killer Marathon, meanwhile, lasts less than ten minutes as a vector graphics space shooter (like Asteroids) and ends up feeling like a throwaway idea.
Boss fights are equally underwhelming. Each of the games has a mid-boss and a final boss. The mid-boss is always a large creature called the Sheepman, just a different color, and the final bosses often just feel like giant versions of regular enemies due to their propensity to be dumb. Since all of these games were created by the same fictitious designer, the similarities between them aren’t too surprising. But once you’ve slashed your way through one of the seven game worlds — which last 1-2 hours each, with the exception of Killer Marathon — you’ve basically played them all.
Without spoiling anything, longtime Suda51 fans will be excited to see that one of the worlds connects to a previous Grasshopper Manufacture title. It still follows the same formula as the other Death Drive titles, but it does have more interesting features and a better story arc than the others.
All of the games can either be played solo or in local co-op with a friend controlling Bad Man. You can also switch freely between each character at any time, though each has the same basic moves and abilities (save for a few character-specific skills). Co-op is a welcome addition, even if it doesn’t make the fights any less repetitive.
In between each Death Drive game, Travis has to hop on his motorcycle at camp to go find the next one. In a welcome change of pace, these sequences play out as chapters of a visual novel also called Travis Strikes Back. Using classic green visuals and text against a black background like old school PC adventure games, these brief, five to ten minute breaks from the action hold most of Suda51’s brand of humor and storytelling. I enjoyed the self-deprecating writing, even if it’s a bit disappointing that these sequences lack voice acting outside of a few specific cutscenes, instead confining dialogue to text boxes with annoying gibberish sounds.
As a fan of Suda51’s self-referential and fourth wall breaking writing, the visual novel has the goods. In one exchange, there’s a discussion about how no one who bought an action game would be happy with the visual novel. Well, I’m happy this was included because it’s the best source of quirky, Suda51 style writing in the whole package. In one chapter narrated by Travis, he comes across a horse while searching for Dracula and names it Epona, of course.
At camp, you can also purchase new t-shirts to wear inside the games. Grasshopper Manufacture partnered with a bunch of studios to include apparel with logos from great indies such as Dead Cells, Hyper Light Drifter, Golf Story, and Hollow Knight. While this could’ve been a cool cosmetic feature, it’s really hard to actually see the shirts while playing due to the camera frequently being so far away. Travis’ and Bad Man’s jackets further obscure the designs.
Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes is a low point for the action franchise. While each of the game worlds try to introduce new mechanics, they all devolve into predictable fights with waves of bland enemies. Slicing through them with the Beam Katana isn’t as satisfying as before because of the mostly top-down perspective. Well-written visual novel sections offer some classic Suda51 humor, but it’s not enough to elevate Travis Strikes Again to more than just a monotonous, disjointed hack and slash game. | 2019-04-23T02:25:46Z | https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/01/16/travis-strikes-again-no-more-heroes-review |
