Posted by Neal on May 29, 2006
In a recent Language Log posting, Geoff Pullum has this to say about a movie reviewer who read the book The Da Vinci Code and made some observations about Dan Brown’s strange and klunky syntax, observations already made by Geoff Pullum two years earlier:
[Anthony Lane] sounds a tiny bit like an intelligent literary stylistician who has just been awakened from a two-year coma and thus attracts a certain amount of eye-rolling at conferences as he brings up points that he thinks are new but they’re not.
I was interested in the points that he thinks are new but they’re not bit. Pullum uses a relative clause to zero in on what kind of points he’s talking about. Specifically, he’s talking about points that have two properties: 1) He (Lane) thinks they are new; and 2) they’re not new. The first property appears in the relative clause as he thinks [ ] are new, with silence instead of a subject for are new. The missing subject corresponds to points. The second property appears in the relative clause as they’re not. No missing subject here; points corresponds to the actually-spoken subject they.
So why didn’t Pullum leave out the they here, just as he did in he thinks [ ] are new? That is, why didn’t he write this?:
…points that he thinks are new but aren’t.
I could ask him, but hey, Geoff Pullum is a busy man. I’m sure he won’t mind if I just speculate a little. He’s a pretty tolerant guy, after all. Maybe he wanted the sentence to end with a stressed not for emphasis (which you don’t get if it’s swallowed up in the contraction aren’t) and it sounded better as but they’re not than but are not. Or, maybe he wanted to avoid having points fill different kinds of gaps in the two phrases. Sure, points corresponds to a subject in both he thinks [ ] are new and [ ] are not, but in the former, it’s the subject of the embedded verb after thinks that’s being left out, while in the latter it’s the subject of the main verb are. Perhaps in Pullum’s grammar, this kind of double duty sounds as strange as a noun corresponding to both a subject and an object in a relative clause, like some of the ones here.
Whatever the reason, it evidently sounded better to Geoff Pullum to keep the they in the second clause. The result is that we have another coordination in which something is marked only on the first coordinate which nonetheless has scope over both coordinates. We’ve had examples involving negation, modality, and question formation, as illustrated below:
- Negation: “It was fun to run into someone who [wasn’t stodgy] and [thought at some point you should call it quits],” remembered Ellen. (link)
- Modality: “[They must have loosened the hooks] and [Mr. Cleaver didn’t notice it],” Jerry said. (link)
- Question formation: [Did you make your own contributions to a complying superannuation fund] and [your assessable income is less than $31,000]? (link)
Pullum’s is the first example crucially involving relative clause formation. | <urn:uuid:7bd8a0db-07f2-4ab0-aaaa-d688d7d23153> | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | https://literalminded.wordpress.com/2006/05/29/pullums-non-parallelism/ | 2015-05-22T12:59:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-22/segments/1432207925201.39/warc/CC-MAIN-20150521113205-00117-ip-10-180-206-219.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.958046 | 740 |
Drive-By Cyber Attacks: How to Stay Safe from These Nasty Computer Threats
Drive-by cyber attacks are some of the nastiest information security threats in cyberspace today.
A drive-by attack is the unintentional download of a virus or malicious software (malware) onto your system.
While social engineering is sometimes involved (a computer user is lured into clicking on a link that takes them to an infected or malicious website set up by criminals), increasingly, a 'drive-by-download' occurs just because someone visits a legitimate website that has been unknowingly compromised by hackers.
What happens is that malware is hidden in the website’s content. According to a blogger at informationsecuritybuzz.com, the person’s computer is infected through a popup or ad, or by being redirected to another infected site. The newly installed software can steal confidential information, or if it is ransomware, it can encrypt important data – unless a ransom is paid.
Drive-by attacks are understandably a worrisome part of cyber crime, and one of the reasons the costs continue to rise.
As reported in a Forbes.com story, research has projected cyber crime costs to reach $2 trillion globally by 2019, which is almost four times the estimated cost of breaches in 2015.
In the article, cyber crime was referred to as one of the greatest threat to every company in the world.
What can an organization do to reduce these computer security threats?
- Put the right technology in place. A drive-by attack will usually take advantage of a browser, app, or operating system that is out of date. Update equipment regularly with the latest security patches and script blocking plug-ins as well as malware and virus detection.
- Provide on-going security best practices training for employees. Educate remote workers especially about protecting business devices and information outside of the workplace. Consider a policy to prevent employees from installing devices onto equipment at home – home printers for example – to reduce the risk of an attack.
- Encourage good password hygiene at the office and at home. Passwords protect hard drives and other devices. They protect the office network but also the pathways that are created to the office by mobile workers.
- Experts recommend segmenting the company’s network so everyone is not running on the same server. If an infection occurs, it won’t be able to spread throughout the entire workplace.
- Introduce a culture of security in your organization. This should include security policies and procedures, and the promotion of security best practices from the top down. Different aspects of a workplace should embed security policies - so that security behavior becomes a part of everyone's job. A Clean Desk Policy is a good example.
- Take a risk management approach to document management, and protect confidential information from creation to destruction. Back-up data on external hard-drives that are not left connected to the network. Securely destroy information that is no longer needed. Partner with an information destruction company that provides a chain of custody including on or off site destruction of both paper and hard drives and e-media.
Document security best practices go a long way in protecting an organization from information thieves. | <urn:uuid:2a9b21ec-908a-48a0-942d-3aa8b128f3d2> | CC-MAIN-2021-31 | https://www.shredit.com/en-us/blog/cybersecurity/how-to-stay-safe-from-computer-threats | 2021-07-25T10:22:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-31/segments/1627046151641.83/warc/CC-MAIN-20210725080735-20210725110735-00163.warc.gz | en | 0.942419 | 651 |

This article originally appeared on AD Middle East.
Alexander McQueen creative director Sarah Burton’s vision of the McQueen SS22 woman as a storm chaser required a lofty stage. And with the show signaling the iconic British brand’s homecoming that was two decades in the making, the stakes were even higher. “The artwork for the prints in this collection was shot from the rooftops of the studio where we are lucky enough to have the most incredible views of the city: from Saint Paul’s Cathedral to the London Eye,” says Burton. “We watched the weather and captured the formation and coloration of clouds from daybreak to nightfall and documented changing patterns.”
But how do you distill the spirit of a collection inspired by London’s mighty skies into an architectural concept for the show? Cue the acclaimed Chilean architect Smiljan Radić, a long-term collaborator of the brand and the man responsible for Alexander McQueen’s Old Bond Street flagship store in London.
For Burton’s first in-person show since the start of the pandemic, Radić installed a bulbous, cloud-like temporary structure, taking over the rooftop of a 10-story parking garage in East London’s Tobacco Docklands. Buoyed by a net of steel tensile cables, the transparent membrane was installed on top of a raised structure that leveled the sloping roof, making space for the backstage area and the all-important air vents that kept the bubble afloat. Hydrotreated vegetable oil, a renewable diesel alternative made from grease, food waste, and agricultural residues, powered the generator supplying energy for the event.
Inside, in the middle of concentric circles of chairs, models emerged from a stair rising from beneath a platform, decked in cloud prints, glossy leather, black tulle, and shimmering crystals. If Burton wanted to transport her guests to the McQueen studio’s balconies where she and the team spent hours sky gazing as they sought inspiration and refuge from an unyielding lockdown, Radić delivered. As if on cue, a brilliant shaft of sunshine pierced though the bubble, and the show began. | <urn:uuid:62ffd962-ceb1-4d20-8aa7-ab3fb62d222e> | CC-MAIN-2022-21 | https://directsupply.ru/a-giant-bubble-marks-the-return-of-alexander-mcqueen-shows-to-london/ | 2022-05-18T19:56:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-21/segments/1652662522309.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20220518183254-20220518213254-00447.warc.gz | en | 0.924634 | 451 |
NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. — When Andrew Kondek first told his mother he wanted to become a police office, she wasn't on board.
“I just said no. And walked away," said Teresa Kondek.
Just months earlier, on December 21, 2014, her husband Charles Kondek was shot and killed while checking out a noise complaint in Tarpon Springs. The shooter is now serving a life sentence.
It was the support the family got after Charles Kondek’s death that sent Andrew’s life in a new direction.
“It’s from the funeral service and seeing everyone come together and be like a family is what changed my mind," said Andrew.
Wednesday, along with 21 others, Andrew is graduating from the Pasco-Hernando State College Law Enforcement Academy.
“It was all tough. The physical training. The academic side of it," said Andrew.
Members of several law enforcement agencies came to see Andrew graduate.
But, it’s the group from Tarpon Springs that have stood by the family through it all.
They even escorted Andrew’s sister to the prom.
“It’s his home. It’s his family. It’s all he knows and I’m proud of him," said Teresa.
Andrew customized a truck as a memorial to his father.
You can see his father's badge number and end of watch date stitched into the seat.
After the graduation ceremony his mom surprised him with his dad’s handcuffs. The same ones he had on the day he died.
“Of course I’ll be nervous, but just as with his father, I’ll stand beside him. I’ll support him," said Teresa.
Andrew doesn’t know yet where he will be a police officer, but he isn’t against working for the same department as his dad one day. | <urn:uuid:769d6fee-8283-4533-8927-239e552c0408> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.abcactionnews.com/news/region-pasco/fallen-officers-son-graduates-from-police-academy | 2022-01-25T22:53:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304876.16/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125220353-20220126010353-00339.warc.gz | en | 0.987519 | 416 |
The inquest this week into Middlesex's poor season laid the blame firmly at the feet of their batsmen.
The county may have won the Twenty20 Cup, but finished a disappointing third in the County Championship and were relegated from the Pro40 League. And chief executive Vinny Codrington reckons a batting line-up boasting the talents of Owais Shah and Ed Joyce among others should have done better.
Some will argue defeat from a winning position against Essex in May, coupled with the failure to take the last Gloucestershire wicket at Bristol - despite having 22 overs to get it - were the principal reasons for Championship failure.
However, for Codrington, two dismal batting displays at Uxbridge in defeat to the two promoted counties, Worcestershire and Warwickshire, are a better guide to what went wrong.
"We didn't score enough runs," he said point-edly. "We only scored 400 twice in the first innings all season.
"And none of our batsman got to 1,000 runs in the County Championship, which given our lineup, has to be disappointing."
The Seaxes' first piece of silverware in 15 years opened the door to this month's Stanford Super Series and the Twenty20 Champions League later on in the year.
However, for Codrington, failure to achieve the number one aim of promotion back to the County Championship's top tier more than took the gloss off of that memorable day back in July.
"I would say we are a bit disappointed overall," he admitted.
"I'm glad we won something, but it's disappointing to be third in the County Championship and be relegated in the Pro40." | <urn:uuid:cdf163db-8276-4436-a157-af5efce57b28> | CC-MAIN-2017-22 | http://www.getwestlondon.co.uk/sport/cricket/bats-out-of-hell-6014738 | 2017-05-24T04:36:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-22/segments/1495463607786.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20170524035700-20170524055700-00108.warc.gz | en | 0.977136 | 346 |

This paper analyzes the ontology and epistemology of time in Lucretius' De rerum natura. It uses the physiology of perception as well as epistemology to shed new light on the metaphysics. It presents an exegesis-based interpretation of the nature of time and of its perception, both arguing for and refining this interpretation by showing its explanatory power. The paper shows that Lucretius represents the perception of time or sensus temporis as a distinct sensory faculty, reconstructs how it emerges and operates, and relates it to his account of perception more generally. The sense of time in turn is seen to explain aspects of related faculties, including thought and sight, and cases of apparent simultaneity. The paper thus contributes to, among other things, our understanding of the speed of perception andLucretius' account of the nature of time itself-arguing that Lucretius represents time as both continuous (not atomic) and real, as well as something perceived.

Selena Gomez reveals the REAL reason she went to rehab
Selena Gomez has been in the headlines not so much for her music lately, but her on-again, off-again relationship with Justin Bieber. Rumor has it that he's the reason she secretly went to rehab in January, but that hearsay can finally be put to rest.
During the We Day California event organized by the Free The Children charity, she revealed the real answer behind her rehab stay and believe it or not you will be able to relate.
Read more ¿Qué más?: Selena Gomez went to rehab & no one found out until now!
The singer was a guest at the youth event where she made an inspirational speech that touched many. "You all have pressure that you have to deal with every day--with school, with work, with friends, with parents, with family. They tell me what to wear, how to look, what I should say, how I should be," she said. The 21-year-old then added her own personal touch and revealed a little more than the audience expected:
Until recently I had given into that pressure, I lost sight of who I was. I listened to opinions of people and I tried to change who I am because I thought others would accept me for it. And I realized I don't know how to be anything but myself.
Selena made sure the kids knew that she wasn't trying to tell them what to do with their lives. "I'm here to just tell you my path so that you can hopefully take something away from it, because I don't like being honest with press and interviews. I like being honest with you directly," she candidly said. She also made sure to remind them that they should trust their instincts and never give up on their dreams no matter how many people tell them they can't do something.
I'm glad Selena finally spoke out about what she's been going through. She is definitely an inspiration to young women everywhere and they needed to hear it straight from her. Hopefully she is in a better place now and continues to live life by her own rules and not by her others'. And we hope she's staying away from the things (or people, hint, hint) that are detrimental to her life.

Cold air funnels are harmless in almost all cases. They are generated under updrafts of showers (usually NOT a thunderstorm!) and when an upper level low pressure center is around.
They are almost always harmless with no ability to reach the ground. The National Weather Service won’t typically put out a warning for cold air funnels. This is despite the fact that they look like real tornadoes trying to form! | <urn:uuid:b20c4f20-3cb6-4060-bea6-ebfb492fd1f4> | CC-MAIN-2018-22 | http://ozarksweather.com/tag/cold-air-funnels/ | 2018-05-22T08:20:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-22/segments/1526794864648.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20180522073245-20180522093245-00172.warc.gz | en | 0.931482 | 87 |
Hello Eric, I have done a little search and it looks as though Ivo is probably spot on with Ilanit Olemtov Jerusalem. There was a decanter and tumbler set on Etsy which is no-longer on their 'for sale' list but can be seen on Google if you put in Ilanit Glass. It might be worth contacting them to see if the set was sold, and if not, they might contact the seller to ask if they would relist it.
Although Ivo has mentioned that it is cheap glass imported from Italy or France, bear in mind that the value of a made piece is in the pocessing and handwork applied after the glass is melted down, and many of these pieces are quite pricey.
Keep a look out on eBay as well and it could also be worth you contacting the glassworks if possible.
It would still be helpful for us to see a photo of the full shape of the glass and also the pitcher if we are to look out for replacements for you....if they are available, someone here will spot it!! | <urn:uuid:e7d325b2-b440-442b-a858-7ce8a887b523> | CC-MAIN-2016-40 | http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,50780.0/prev_next,prev.html | 2016-10-01T17:39:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-40/segments/1474738663142.93/warc/CC-MAIN-20160924173743-00052-ip-10-143-35-109.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.983729 | 224 |
I live in Hartsville, South Carolina. I am an Associate Professor of Spanish at Coker College. I expect you won't agree with me most of the time. Prepare to be mildly entertained.
Sad to hear it. Hope all is well for you all.
It feels like there's a lot of that going around this year, Mac. Seems like there are just ... other things going on for everyone.Hope your hibernation is treating you well.

I have taken to this blog as a place where I can do what I do best, writing. When I write, it serves the chief purpose as to gather my own thoughts in one singular place and to look over them in hopes of reaping from them some particular insight or epiphany and hopefully help someone else along the way. Sometimes though, my writing isn’t always in that fashion, it doesn’t always afford me the opportunity of a great epiphany or understanding. Sometimes it is just ramblings in hopes of getting them out of my head, and that is a bit like what I seem to be doing here with the concept of time.
On August 30th I made one of the most difficult decisions of my life. I decided to leave behind the only sure thing I have known in the last fifteen years—school. I decided to take a semester off of college, a hiatus if you will, in hopes of making some attempts at getting well.
In this time off there have been marked improvements. There have been improvements like the fact that anxiety is not gripping everyday of my life, or that I am not dealing with horrible side effects of former medications, or that I don’t feel like there is a dark cloud above my head in every moment preventing me from living. I have had time to come closer to God and to contemplate his truths. I have had the opportunity to make a platform for myself to share these things and because of this I feel like this is the place to contemplate the following thing that I have been too scared to admit to myself, that this whole thing is going to take time.
I have no good explanation for you as to what I thought was going to happen when I decided to take a semester off of school. I remember going in to it considering it a time of healing, to give myself time to repair, to heal not only physically and mentally, but also spiritually. My words, however, seem to have rung hollow to myself, I seem to have just been justifying my hiatus with this concept of allowing myself time, and leaving it as just that, a concept. Though I have made strides in these places of healing mentioned above, there seems to be a part of me that thought it would all be over by now.
But this is not the case. While I have come to this place before and explained great things God has revealed to me through this pain and have had the excitement of coming to know him better, I have also come to realize that there is a difference between knowing God is in control and accepting that he is in control. That may seem fairly obvious to some, but it’s a hard pill to swallow, a painful realization when you thought you were being accepting of such a thing, then having it proven by yourself, to yourself that you have been trying to hold fast to your own schedule and your own plan. It seems to be that He has decided that his plan for my life, for my healing, will take time, the very concept I justified my hiatus with, and it will take longer than human me wants.
Time is cruel, but yet again, I am left here in awe of the revelations of himself that God has presented me through this pain. Again I am left with the recognition that He is in control, and it is now my turn to relinquish my own attempts at having said control. I am still hurting. I am still broken. But it is time that I not only allow God to do what he will, to align my desires with his will, but also to start to be truthful with myself about where I am and what I need which is his good and perect time, not what I want in my human schedule. | <urn:uuid:764deb32-4d1b-4321-a004-7869e0f293e1> | CC-MAIN-2018-39 | https://composinglace.com/2016/10/17/coming-to-terms-with-time/ | 2018-09-23T03:17:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-39/segments/1537267158958.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20180923020407-20180923040807-00342.warc.gz | en | 0.98864 | 759 |

The year of 2016 has brought exciting changes to the Lebanon Police Dept. I am Tyson Warmoth, your new Chief of Police. Along with my new Assistant Chief of Police, Major Brad Bailey, we pledge to truly “protect and serve” the City of Lebanon by building trust and cooperation with the citizens. So you know a little about us, I am a Boone County native, born right here in Lebanon. As well as being a United States Air Force veteran, I am a 26 year veteran of law enforcement, having served the past 20 years with LPD. I have served in a variety of roles on the department such as a Field Training Officer, Bicycle Patrol, Honor Guard, Emergency Vehicle Ops Instructor, and what I am most proud of, my 17 years of membership on the Boone County Special Response Team. I have worked my way up through the ranks of Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Captain before assuming my role as Chief of Police. I have worked the streets of Lebanon for over 20 years and I am keenly aware of our City’s problems. But I am just as equally aware of the great sense of community and our quality of life we share in the City!
Major Brad Bailey has now served on the Department for over 10 years. Brad is widely known as our City’s DARE officer and is a welcome face in all of our City’s public schools. Brad is enthusiastic for his work with the DARE program and plans to continue instructing the program. Brad was formerly a Sergeant on Road Patrol, Bicycle Patrol, Honor Guard, and one of our Senior Field Training Officers. Brad is also a native of Lebanon, living here his entire life.
Brad and I truly believe we are servants to the citizens of Lebanon. We welcome ideas and input from the community and will always have an open door to listen to your suggestions. We, the Lebanon Police Department, can’t do it alone! To effectively lower crime in the City, we need a partnership with the citizens. We need you to be good neighbors in your community, we need you to be the eyes and ears of the Department, and we need you to notify us when you see trouble. Together, we can make this an even safer city!

Well it will all be downhill from Cheyenne. The landscape is flat and green with oil pumps scattered around. You see a cluster of trees so you know there is a house somewhere in there. When we cross into Nebraska the north side of the interstate is flat and the south side has rolling hills.
On no, we are now in central time so we lost another hour.
About 75 miles into Nebraska the wind is ...
... above the dam. I had never experienced this before. We reached our northernmost destination - Princeton Beach about 3 pm, spent about an hour on the beach then started heading back down river.
For the late afternoon lunch, we stopped at a restaurant on the river, and had an outstanding meal at the "Captain's Table."
What a day!
Thanks for reading!

Today my friends and I hiked to Mt. LeConte along the Alum Cave Trail, then hiked along the Boulevard Trail and Appalachian Trail to Newfound Gap. This was a 13.4 mile route with 4838 feet of climbing. We started hiking just before sunrise to make sure we got a parking spot at the trail head. This is one of the most popular hikes at the most popular time of year. As we hiked the sun rose and the clouds lifted. Much like our “fall colors” hike two years ago, as we climbed in elevation the fall colors gave way to frost. We stopped at many great look outs along Alum Cave Trail and at Mt. LeConte. The Boulevard Trail is much less traveled and we quietly hiked along the ridge line with views through the trees on either side.
Today my friends and I hiked from Cataloochee, along Pretty Hollow Gap Trail, to Swallow Fork Trail, to Low Gap Trail, to the Appalachian Trail, to Mt Cammerer, and back again. This was a very challenging 30.4 mile day hike with 7284 feet of climbing according to Caltopo. It took 13 hours total, sunrise to sunset. We started at 7:50 (sunrise) and got back to the car at 8:50 (nearly 2 hours past sunset) stopping twice for 30 minutes each: once at mile 15 for lunch at the Mt Cammerer fire watch tower and once at mile 20 to refill our water at Walnut Bottom. Unfortunately, like last week, the clouds covered the top of Mt Cammerer so we didn’t have a view. By the time we stopped to refill our water in the evening, the clouds lifted, and we could see bright patches of fall colors through the trees around us. On the hike back up to Pretty Hollow Gap the sun was starting to set. Golden hour was quickly approaching. We picked up our pace to reach the gap before the sun set only to realize the gap we first passed in the clouds was covered in trees blocking a clear view of the surrounding mountainsides.
Hiking so far and so quickly is different than what I am used to and what I prefer. There were many times I would have liked to stop for a photo and had to keep moving. Similarly, by the end I was on autopilot just trying to put one put in front of the other. I was really happy with my hiking boots. I wore only one pair of wool socks and only had a small blister by the end. I am not sure I ate enough. During the days leading up to the hike ate more than I normally do, and in the morning I had a good breakfast. On the hike I had a peanut butter sandwich (350 cal) apple sauce (100 cal), two Chick-fil-a sandwiches (880 cal and great trail food), four rxbar (840 cal), a banana (90 cal), trail mix (460 cal), five thin mints (180), and a brownie (250 cal), for a total of only 3150 calories. Next time, I need to be better about planning food.
Today I hiked a 12 mile loop including Charlie’s Bunion. Starting at Newfound Gap at 5,048 ft, I followed the Appalachian Trail for 1.7 miles then hiked down 2,000 feet to the Kephart shelter, then back up to the AT at dry Sluice Gap and Charlie’s Bunion at 5376 feet. The trail back to Newfound Gap peaked at Mt Kephart at 6217 feet. All told the elevation gain was ~3217 feet.
This turned out to be one of the best hikes I’ve done. I woke up at 5:30 am and left the house by 6 to get to the park before the crowds (this time of year is especially crowded. It can feel like rush hour in the mountains.) True to their name, the Smokys were covered in clouds. When I started hiking at 8 it was cold, windy, and wet. Ice cold water fell from the trees every time the wind blew. There was no visibility past the trail. As I descended to the Kephart shelter I dipped below the clouds and caught the morning sun. I stopped for lunch and a nap just before the bunion because I found a beautiful spot to set up my hammock with a window between two evergreen trees overlooking, The Sawteeth, an adjacent peak. By the time I hiked to the bunion the clouds around the peaks had evaporated leaving a cloud inversion in the valleys lasting well into the late afternoon. I did my best impression of the Wanderer above the Sea of Fog. After the bunion I hiked directly back to Newfound Gap finishing the hike in a casual 9 hours.
Today my friends and I bouldered in Stone Fort / Little Rock City in Soddy-Daisy Tennessee near Chattanooga. Most of what we climbed was difficult for me but not too highly rated.
We warmed up on Slab (V0-), Needless Things (V0-), and Costume Rings (V0-). We sent Fire Crack Flake (V1), a big incredibly thin flake on the corner of the boulder. I separately climbed the first and second halves of Art of the Vogi (V4), a really cool problem with a sloper, slab top. I couldn’t get anywhere on Hairy Underclings (V3). I loved the start of Swingers (V3-4), a cave super overhung with jugs, but couldn’t nail the sloper top-out. I climbed halfway up The Crescent (V1) and Spacegrass (V2), and flashed Smoking Jacket (V1-2).
Every climb here is highly rated. The problems we climbed have interesting holds and require precise moves. Overall, it was a warm day (even in early October), and my hands and the holds were quite slick. I’d love to come back and try these problems in cooler, drier weather.
Climbing outside, especially the strong moves required in bouldering, is rough on the skin (every hold on sandstone is basically sandpaper). My fingerprints wore off and my computer couldn’t read my print for a week.
Today I hiked a short 2 mile out and back trail to Spruce Flat Falls with my parents. The family was in Gatlinburg to celebrate my grandmothers birthday. This trail is not on my map and is only marked “falls” by a sign near the Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont.
Today my friends and I climbed at Leda, in Soddy-Daisy. This is a pretty area with many sport climbs in our range (<5.11). The property is owned by the Montlake Golf Course and also includes the bouldering area Stone Fort Little Rock City. With climbers and golfers everywhere it makes for an odd crowd.
I top roped Walk By Me (5.7), Knock on Rock (5.9+), Speedway Boogie (5.7+), Free to Think (trad 5.8), and Cracked Actor (trad 5.10a). Cracked Actor has an awesome off width crack which is too big for a hand jam (i.e. hand cracks) but too small to fit my whole body in (i.e. a chimney). There were a few crimps in the off width that made it easier. The crack then became a finger crack with a sharp edge and an awesome layback. Unfortunately, I didn't have the energy in my grip to finish out the juggy, pumpy moves to the anchors without resting.
Today, my friends and I climbed at Lilly Bluff at Obed. It was a beautiful day. The routes at Lilly Bluff were more difficult that I expected. I top roped a few classic climbs, Tarantella (5.10a) and Ticks Are For Kids (5.10a). I lead Rocking Chair (5.9-) and finished the lead (with rests) on Clyde the Mega Dude (5.11b/c), my first 5.11! Though, only the crux is 5.11. The rest of the climb is 5.8-5.9. I was totally worn out by the end.
Today, my friends and I climbed at South Clear at Obed. We set out with the intention to climb trad at North Clear but the trail was really overgrown and we couldn't find the right routes. So, we went to South Clear and sport climbed. I only top roped this time. It took a while to adjust to the heights and being on a rope after bouldering in the gym. I climbed Best Seat In The House (5.9), Double Feature (5.10c), Shadowhawk (5.9), and tried Cheap Seats (5.10a) and Spawn (5.10b/c). Best Seat In The House and Cheap Seats were slabby climbs. I was sweating too much in the heat to deal with the small holds on Cheap Seats. We started on Shadowhawk and Spawn. These were both high climbs (90 feet) with great views of the river. I got worn out at the end of Spawn and didnt have the strength for the last few moves. Double Feature started with a cool boulder problem using a two finger pocket. The rest of the climb was big moves. Unfortunately, we all got yellow jacket stings on the hike in and out (they build their nests in steps on the trail). This was still a great day out.
As I wrote before, I had to go back to Ramsey Cascades because I forgot my camera the first time, and if there are not any (good) photos did it really happen? This time my sister met me at the trailhead to hike with me. There had been a lot of rain this week so the river and falls were roaring. It also rained on us for about 20 minutes. The whole forest was just as green and alive as ever. Just like last time there were many cool fungi. My favorite is the clear one that looks like frosted glass.
Today, I hiked to Ramsey Cascades. The trail was an 8.0 mile total, out and back with 2190 feet of climbing. The trail winds along the Middle Prong of the Little Pigeon River through the largest old growth forest in the national park. I walked past the three largest trees I've ever seen, and everywhere was filled with life: wild flowers, butterflies, moss, trees, undergrowth, fungi. It felt like walking through a Hayao Miyazaki film. The trail ends at Ramsey Cascades the tallest waterfall in the park at 100 feet (though Rainbow Falls at 80 feet is the largest single drop waterfall in the park).
On the hike back I walked past a rattlesnake 10 feet off the trail. It rattled as I walked past, and was loud enough to hear over the sound of the creek. A half mile later I walked past an agitated bee hive. I walked calmly and briskly and avoided getting stung.
I brought my fully charged camera but unfortunately forgot the memory card. The only photos I took were on my phone (the best camera is the one you have with you), so I will hike it again to get better photos. | <urn:uuid:3b978cf5-5ccd-461f-b8ab-188cf770c246> | CC-MAIN-2019-04 | https://pcaveney.com/photos/?offset=1541377620521 | 2019-01-21T07:52:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-04/segments/1547583763839.28/warc/CC-MAIN-20190121070334-20190121092334-00512.warc.gz | en | 0.970136 | 2,355 |

While conversing with some people during networking events, I have come to the conclusion that people do not know the difference between “Web Design” and “Web Development”. Though both can have a mixture of similar end product (26 Things To Note Before You Develop A Website), the focus is very different. In this article, I'll discuss what both of these careers have in common and how they are different.
Web Design focuses more on the front-end look and feel of a website. The front-end is what your visitors/users will see. It is what makes your website unique and that creativity will help users remember your business and keep them coming back for more.
If a customized website is your goal, a web designer's job is to assemble the information from the client during the consultation phase. From the client's input, a web designer will be able to visualize and describe how the website is ultimately going to look. A better overview of a designer's job is UX Is Not UI Design .
Web design elements range from color scheme (coordinating the mood of your target audience), graphics (images/logos/banners), layouts (placement of blocks on a page) and typography (fonts). There are also talented web designers who do some basic coding that makes the interaction of websites possible using jQuery, HTML5 and CSS3. However, the coding parts are usually done by the Web Developer.
With the invention of frameworks like Drupal/WordPress, Compass/SASS and Bootstrap, web development can be done more efficiently. Why? Presentational markup languages like HTML5 and CSS3 do not need to be manually coded every time a new page is created. Depending on the conditions discussed during the Consultation Phase, adding a new page can be as simple as clicking on a button. Adding a new feature can be done by using plugins or modules to the framework. However, these plugins and modules wouldn't be possible without the hard work of the web developers who contributed to the framework in the first place.
A Web Developer's main purpose is to make the complexity of websites as simple as possible for the end-users by automating the parts that rarely change. The parts that do change, mainly the interaction (clicks, slideshows, events, etc) and front-end look and feel of a website coming from the web designer, can be customized by the web developer who can put everything together because they understand the underlying code of the plugins/modules.
Focus On Your Business
The final product is a fully functional website that can be used by anyone without needing to know how to code. All you need is to know your business and to present the written content that describes your business to potential customers and new visitors. As they say, “content is king”. Your Web Designer and Web Developer will help you focus on writing the best content, not learning how to design and code your website. We manage that for you because we enjoy it, so you can pursue what you love to do too.

The Monk Who Blogs to visit Nevada County
TheUnion.com, Mar 9, 2010
Khen Rinpoche Jangchup Choeden, abbot of Gaden Shartse Norling University in India, will visit Nevada County
Nevada County, USA -- Sierra Friends of Tibet and Tibetech.org announces a rare visit by the present abbot of Gaden Shartse Norling University, exiled in India.
Khen Rinpoche Jangchup Choeden was appointed abbot by His Holiness the Dalai Lama of Tibet in 2009.
He will hold a free, public talk at 7 p.m. Monday, March 22, at St. Joseph's Hall in St. Joseph's Cultural Center, 410 S. Church St., Grass Valley. Call (530) 272-4725 for more information.
Khen Rinpoche was born in the north Indian State of Himachal Pradesh. In 1979, he joined the prestigious Gaden Shartse Norling University in Mundgod, Karnataka, India, and embarked on an extended course of Buddhist studies.
Rinpoche studied under guidance of the great masters and attended debate meetings and religious discourses at various renowned Tibetan Buddhist monastic universities across the Indian subcontinent.
Earning special recognition in the Tibetan Buddhist community, Rinpoche studied Buddhist logic and epistemology, Pragyanaparamita (perfection of wisdom), Madhyamika (philosophy of the Middle Way School), Abhidharma (treasury of knowledge, metaphysics), and Vinaya (Buddhist monastic ethics).
In 1997 Rinpoche was awarded the prestigious degree of Geshe Lharampa, a degree often compared to a valedictorian PhD in western universities. Rinpoche subsequently joined the famed Gyuto Tantric University.
Gaden Shartse Norling University (monastery) was first established in Tibet in 1409 and flourished as one of Tibet's greatest monastic institutions. Following the destruction of Tibet's great monasteries Gaden was later re-established in exile in Mundgod, South India in 1959.
The abbots of the universities are selected and approved by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama himself. Abbots oversee all administrative and spiritual affairs of the entire college, including education, funds and religious affairs.
Rinpoche is fluent in English as well as five other languages and states that “by traveling abroad, meeting and exchanging views with people from diverse cultural, religious and social backgrounds, I enrich my own understanding of the meaning of life and common human problems. Being a graduate from a traditional Tibetan Buddhist academic system, speaking fluent English and Mandarin helps me greatly in assist people from diverse backgrounds through my counseling.”
Referred to as the "21st Century monk" because of his understanding of global issues, Rinpoche has an excellent command of technology, runs his own blog site, Facebook presence and website www.jangchupchoeden.org.
Rinpoche had briefly visited Nevada County in 2004 and was struck by the area's unique sense of community and long term commitment to the Tibetan culture.
“The Sierra Nevada is a place I will never forget in my life for its natural beauty and the kind, friendly and caring people. The love and friendship offered by all of you is irreplaceable by anything.” he says.
“We are so honored to receive the Abbot of the great Gaden Shartse monastery here in our little town. Unbelievable! For Rinpoche to make time for us in his demanding schedule is truly a testament to our community's continued loving support of this culture” says Melanie Sullivan of Sierra Friends of Tibet.

iPhone XS and XS Max in silver, space gray, and gold.
'iPhone 7' Rumored to Be Waterproof, Possibly Adopt Non-Metallic Casing Material
This strengthened body would certainly follow in the footsteps of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, which bolstered the weak points of its predecessors and moved to a stronger 7000 Series aluminum alloy. According to today's rumors, however, the so-called iPhone 7 will find its strength in a focus on a waterproof and dust-proof body that would allow iPhone users to worry less about dropping their smartphones in liquids.
This big new upgrade to the iPhone 7 would call for a new frame and casing material, and according to one of the postings on Weibo, Apple is in fact planning on adopting an entirely new material next year for the iPhone 7. If this turns out to be the case, the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus would be the last in the iPhone line to include a metallic casing for the smartphone.
Mac Otakara also received news from reliable sources stating that the upcoming iPhone would have a "completely flat" LCD screen, but, as with all of today's rumors, it should be taken with a grain of salt given that we're just now under a year away from Apple revealing the device. These aren't the first rumors of the iPhone 7, either, with reports dating back to March concerning the 2016 iPhone's possibility of adopting Intel LTE Chips, including glass-on-glass touch panels, and being the thinnest iPhone yet. | <urn:uuid:810dd33c-331b-4a4b-814d-e9e75625b35f> | CC-MAIN-2018-39 | https://www.macrumors.com/2015/09/28/iphone-7-already-rumored-to-be-waterproof/ | 2018-09-21T10:39:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-39/segments/1537267157028.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20180921092215-20180921112615-00488.warc.gz | en | 0.95299 | 313 |
Skip to comments.GOP big pushes Giuliani for vice prez (MEGA BARF ALERT)

One of New York's best-known Republicans is calling on pres idential hopeful Rick Perry to choose Rudy Giuliani as his running mate for next year's election.
Former state GOP Chairman William Powers, a longtime Giuliani friend and a key player in his first mayoral election in 1993, told The Post that such a move by Perry could deliver key swing states like New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Ohio to the Republicans.
"He'd be the best No. 2 anybody in the world could pick," said Powers, who has a longstanding relationship with leading Texas Republicans like Karl Rove, former President George W. Bush's top political adviser.
"A Perry-Giuliani ticket would absolutely defeat the Obama-Biden ticket and would have a big impact in New Jersey, in Pennsylvania, in Ohio, in Rhode Island and Connecticut, all places where Rudy is absolutely admired," Powers said.

Will Rudy wear a dress to the inaugural? Will Hannity shill for him non-stop for the next year? Giuliani, its over. Retire on your millions and STFU and leave governing to real conservatives.
watch carefully folks, that’s what this election is about for the pubie party.
karl rove, dana pe-rino, the bush minions and their wa wa d.c. establishment toadies
will push to keep palin, bachmann, perry, west, cain et al
out of the election.
Short of asking Dick Cheney to do another stint as Vice President, Giuliani would be a good choice if you're looking for a kick-ass-and-take-names kind of VP that would give our enemies pause -- just as Cheney did. A good VP can make a difference in a war situation.
“who has a longstanding relationship with leading Texas Republicans like Karl Rove, former President George W. Bush’s top political adviser.”
Texas RINOs maybe.
GOP doesn’t want any filthy conservatives getting in the way.
Agreed Guiliani is not a bad choice he has no fear and kicks butt in speeches and debates. He will be vp so he won’t affect social policy which is why he’s not liked here but fiscally Rudy is sound.
Is it just me or is that a picture of Perry shilling for Rudy?
Yeah. Lying for Rudy.
The man is a walking, talking set of talking points.
Did you know Giuliani would pick conservative judges? ROFL...
Must be true. Perry said so.
8 years of those two and the official language of our country will be Spanish.
Guiliani is a non starter. Obama got Bin Laden. Making this election a security issue is meaningless.
Only one we should be looking at for a VP is Rubio.
But he showed great leadership skills and great personal courage on 9/11. While Bush was essentially in hiding (and maybe rightly so) Giuliani was out on the front lines that day.
And Giuliani knows who the real enemy is. When he was DA, he was fierce in his attacks on the mafia. I would assume he'd do the same against radical islam, both at home and abroad. And it's the “home” part that's been ignored thus far.
So Giuliani is not a top favorite of mine. He has many weaknesses. But I will give credit where credit is due.
Giuliani’s time is past.
He was an excellent mayor of NYC. He fixed the crime problem, and his left wing tendencies on social questions didn’t much matter since NYC couldn’t have been further to the left anyway.
He COULD have run for governor last time against Andrew Cuomo, and he might even have beaten him. There, again, not a perfect governor, but far better than Cuomo. But he didn’t.
I think that was his last chance. He is now history.
Global warming or “climate change” (AKA: the weather), is nothing more than a fear mongering scam to bilk people out their money.
Why shouldn't RINO Rick want Rudy as his running mate, he endorsed this freak for POTUS.
That depends. In the absence of a major terrorist attack here, perhaps in the style of Beslan, you're probably correct. But if there is a major attack, all bets are off.
Short of any major missteps between now and next summer, I can't imagine anyone else getting the nod.
Just great...(I can see the argument now!) Forget all the Tea-Party stood for you must vote for them or else you want another 4 years of Obama. I don’t want to hear a word of compalint from the Perry supporters IF he becomes President and SELLS out on Immigration!
Giuliani should be head of Homeland Security, Darrell Issa as Attorney General, and Ron Paul as Chairman of the Fed.
So we can have an even bigger police state than we already have?
Thanks - but NO thanks!
An anti-Second Amendment liberal as head of Homeland Security? No thanks.
Bush’s re-election in 2004 was about security. 2012 will be about the economy. Hussein Obama has to run on his piss poor economic record in 2012. As long as we don’t run a pathetic candidate like Bob Dole or John “Captain Queeg” McCain, we have a good shot at winning in 2012. I agree: Giuliani is a joke and a complete non-starter.
I agree. However, all Obama has to run on is catching Osama. Guiliani offers nothing to the ticket. NY’ers will still overwhelmingly vote Democrat.
Now Rubio on the other hand.....
Giuliani is very kick-ass-and-take-names, and that is simply an indisputable fact. I would posit that that is a great quality in a Sec’y. of Defense. It could be because I don’t know as much about the Dep’t. of Defense as I should. For now, I think Giuliani would be a fabulous Sec.

WHEN MEN EXPRESS THEIR FEELINGS AND HILLARY CLINTON BECOMES PRESIDENT
QUOTES ABOUT FEMINISM AND EQUALITY
Zitatsammlung mit Fotografien
Feminism and equality two terms, which are rather negatively associated and quite often equated with men-hating and hysterical female revolts. This negative picture keeps a lot of women from identifying with feminism and therefore with the achievement of global equality and equity of women.
It is my intention to highlight the impressive commitment for equality of individual men and women by using quotes. The main purpose behind this collection of quotations is to motivate as well as to inspire and that it even might be taken as an incentive for both sexes equally to change their views on feminism and equality. It is to demonstrate that feminism is not about men-hating at all.
When at 15, my girlfriends started dropping out of their beloved sports teams, because they didn’t want to appear muscly, when at 18, my male friends were unable to express their feelings, I decided that I was a feminist. | <urn:uuid:dacaaffd-c46a-4125-8b1c-cb4de3c4d286> | CC-MAIN-2018-39 | http://ss15.ohmschau.de/project/franziska-doehla/ | 2018-09-25T13:59:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-39/segments/1537267161638.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20180925123211-20180925143611-00553.warc.gz | en | 0.916244 | 275 |

So You Think You Can Define Gender Roles In Dance
May 23, 2009 9:21 PM Subscribe
So You Think You Can Dance, the American dance-based reality show with a very high viewership (and more than 10 country-specific spin-offs) has a minor controversy brewing in their fifth season: one of the judges, Nigel Lythgoe, commented "I think you'd probably alienate a lot of our audience" after watching a straight/gay male ballroom dancing couple. The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) issued a call to action to contact FOX and Lythgoe. Lythgoe tweeted more of his thoughts, but then went on to apologise for all his comments. Additionally, FOX issued a comment on how auditioners and contestants are reviewed. But none of this addresses the role of gender in dancing, though Lythgoe has clarified his thoughts before: that men "need to be very strong. Dancing is role-playing most of the time. And you need to be strong and lift girls. You need to look stronger than the girl you’re dancing with." Specific roles are assigned by gender in many styles of dance, including Square dancing, Tango, Poi, Haka, and many others. But there are opportunities for gender-role free dancing, as with the Lavender Country and Folk Dancers and other such groups.

(Article is updated with a suggested Courseplay fix.)
Are youready to download both the North American and the European version of the JohnDeere 9RX series tractors for Farming Simulator 19? (You'll find the download link below.)
The summerof '19 suddenly became a whole lot more fun. Finally, John Deere 9RX fromCustom Modding is here. And boy, it was definitely worth the wait :) Thisis one of the coolest, most beastly, great tractor mods we've ever driven.
Custom Modding's 9RX is very detailed (too detailed for consoles.) But still, the file size is way below 75 mb, which means the team behind has done an excellent optimization job.
EU & US Versions
It's greatof CM to think of their fans on both sides of the pond. There's a US / Canadianversion. And there’s a European version. The version changes are done in theshop.
There arethree different exhaust pipe options to choose from, two backweight options.The interior has custom animations. And the dirt textures are as close toreal-life as it gets.
Impressive track options
One of thethings that impress us the most are the tracks. There's a total of fourdifferent tracks available (36", 30", 24", and 18".)And there are three settings for the axle track width (80", 88",and 120".)
FS19 John Deere 9RX Series
Here aresome vital facts about this great FS19 mod:
- Brand: John Deere.
- Credits: Custom Modding, KMN-Modding, MJD Farms, Ghost, and BK Modding.
- Category: Large Tractors.
- Base price: 492,300.
- Engine configurations: 5 - 9420RX, 9470RX, 9520RX, 9570RX, and 9620RX.
- Power range: 462 hp, 517 hp, 572 hp, 628 hp, and 670 hp.
- Top speed: 24 mph | 43 kph.
- Selectable colors: No.
- Selectable tracks: Oh, yes.
- Errors? No, just one small warning.
The log showed a message about the game engine correcting the setting for 'maxRotation.' However, this did not affect the gameplay.
Here's a short video presentation of the JD:

(UpdatedAugust 19, 2019)Some players report about problems getting the tractor to work correctly withCourseplay. Thanks to Vincent, there is a fix that you could try. But I need towarn you. It involves editing the XML files, so please, make a backup ofthe mod before you try this solution.
Here’s Vincent’s suggestion:
- Unzip the FS19_CM_JD_9RX .zip file.
- Open the folder, and look for this file: 9RX.xml
- Open it in Notepad or Notepad++.
Ok. Withthe XML file open, look for this section (starts at line 592):
<ackermannSteering rotSpeed="25" rotMax="15" rotCenterWheel1="5" rotCenterWheel2="7"/>
<articulatedAxis componentJointIndex="1" anchorActor="0" rotSpeed="-25" rotMax="31" rotMin="-31" aiRevereserNode="aiReverserNode"/>
Now, replacethe values above, whit these ones:
<ackermannSteering rotSpeed="30" rotMax="15" rotCenter="0 -0.302"/>
<articulatedAxis componentJointIndex="1" anchorActor="0" rotSpeed="-30" rotMax="31" rotMin="-31" aiRevereserNode="aiReverserNode"/>
When you’re finished, zip the file back together and give it the same name as before:
This shouldwork. But, again, make a backup of the original mod first.
Version 184.108.40.206 – UpdatedModel
(UpdatedJanuary 2, 2020)The magnificent 9RX model from Custom Modding got an update, just in time forChristmas. The update includes the following:
- Itnow resembles the 2019 model.
- Thereare new mirrors, new stickers, flexible hoses.
- Themodel has new lights, a new engine cover, and updated rear linkage.
Note that Ihave not tested it with Courseplay. The above fix might still be useful.
How to Download
Here's the Facebook release post for the JD 9RX. Look for the download link at the bottom of it.We always use the modder's original download link when possible.

Electronic suspensions are the most advanced suspension systems available. In the simplest terms, electronic suspensions adjust the feel of the suspension and your vehicle’s ride height to cater to changing road conditions with ease. But how exactly do they work?
Read on to find out.
Basics of Electronic Suspensions
Electronic suspension is essentially a computer-controlled system that can adjust the ride characteristics and performance of your vehicle. Unlike air suspensions, an electronic suspension modifies the shocks and/or struts electronically to ensure a smooth ride. Some electronic suspensions are also designed to automatically adapt to changing road conditions for improved handling in all sorts of terrain.
How Do Electronic Suspensions Work?
There are two types of electronic suspensions: adaptive and active. Each one works in a different way to improve performance.
Adaptive Electronic Suspensions
An adaptive electronic suspension is responsible for controlling the shock absorbers and their dampening performance. Simply put, they adjust the shocks as needed to deliver a smooth driving experience.
Adaptive suspensions can adjust the shocks using a solenoid and valve that’s placed on the strut. The solenoid connects to a computer in the system and monitors the road conditions. When stiffness and overall suspension performance need to be adjusted, the solenoid communicates this information to the system. Then it will activate the valves to open and close as needed to regulate the amount of hydraulic fluid going into the shocks.
An adaptive suspension may also use a magneto damper, or a damper filled with fluid that contains metal particles. An electromagnet controls these little pieces of metal to adjust the pressure and stiffness in each damper.
Active Electronic Suspensions
An active electronic suspension changes the ride height for your vehicle to improve performance and towing capabilities. This type of electronic suspension uses hydraulics or electromagnets to operate.
Active suspensions that adjust hydraulically use sensors to monitor the vehicle’s movement and ride height. When performance or ride height needs to be regulated, the system activates a hydraulic pump that pressurizes the liquid in the shocks. This will configure the stiffness of the suspension as well as the height of the vehicle to your specific preferences.
Electromagnetically controlled active suspensions work similarly to hydraulically controlled systems. The only difference is that these systems use electromagnet motors instead of pumps to adjust a car’s ride height. This type of active electronic suspension is known to respond faster and use less power than hydraulics.
Which Type of Electronic Suspension is Right for You?
Both types of electronic suspensions can improve performance but in different ways. If you’re looking for something to enhance your driving experience during your commutes, consider an adaptive electronic suspension. Its ability to monitor the road and automatically adjust the stiffness of the shocks will allow you to experience a smooth ride in most road conditions.
Those looking to adjust vehicle height for towing or performance purposes should consider installing an active electronic suspension kit. These allow you to raise or lower your vehicle will help you tow more and ensure a smooth ride.
But regardless of which type of electronic suspension you choose, you’re sure to get a great performance.

Former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Greg Lloyd was always known as one of the toughest and hardest-hitting players in the NFL, so perhaps it's no surprise that he's not a fan of Commissioner Roger Goodell's efforts to improve player safety.
"This is not PBS, it's not the public channel that you go watch. It's the National Football League, it's a violent freaking game," Lloyd told WXIX-TV in Cincinnati.
"The point of it is that if the NFL and the league would get behind and start taking care of their older players and taking care of guys, they wouldn't have these issues. As opposed to saying, 'Hey, go out there, do it hard, then bang we're done with you.'"
Lloyd, who played for the Steelers from 1988 to 1997 and made several Pro Bowls, also complained about the current game's emphasis on offense.
"I don't want to see a game where the damn score is 75 to one or 75 to two, all this passing and passing. I want to see somebody hit a quarterback, ... that is what people come to see. And at the end of the day if he gets hurt, so be it." | <urn:uuid:a10baa55-e2bc-4ae2-a98b-70c24ce4dda7> | CC-MAIN-2014-52 | http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d829374c8/article/greg-lloyd-says-nfl-is-not-pbs-its-a-violent-freaking-game | 2014-12-21T20:38:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-52/segments/1418802772281.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20141217075252-00079-ip-10-231-17-201.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.987237 | 245 |
Are you ready to take your Excel skills to the next level? You can quickly become a data analysis pro with this guide to Microsoft Excel. Learn the basics and unlock powerful features to maximize your spreadsheet productivity.
Navigating the Excel interface
Open a new or existing workbook by clicking Office button. Familiarize yourself with the tabs at the top of the screen, such as Home, Insert, Page Layout, Formulas, Data, Review and View. Use the Ribbon to access commands within each tab. Navigate between multiple worksheets within a single workbook by clicking the tab names.
The Ribbon displays Excel’s tabs and commands, making it easy to navigate through workbooks. Home tab provides access to commonly used formatting options such as font styles, cell colors and sizes. Insert tab allows adding charts, tables and other interactive elements. Formulas tab covers basic and complex functions like VLOOKUP.
Navigating within one worksheet is simple. Use arrow keys or mouse scroll wheel to move up/down columns and left/right across rows. Click on a specific cell by typing its reference into the Name Box in the top left corner.
When Microsoft first introduced Excel in 1985, it was called “Multiplan” and only available for Macs. In 1987, Microsoft released an updated version exclusively for Windows users.
Now you know how to navigate within Excel’s interface easily. Ready to dive deeper into creating a basic worksheet for data entry!
Creating a basic worksheet for data entry
- Open Microsoft Excel and click “Blank Workbook”.
- Type the title of your worksheet in the first cell.
- Label columns with titles in the first row, then add relevant data in subsequent rows.
- Begin entering data into each cell.
- Save your worksheet by clicking “File” then “Save As”.
Microsoft Excel has practical applications such as sorting, filtering, and complex calculations.
It can also be used unconventionally, like art – Tatsuo Horiuchi creates Japanese landscapes using Excel spreadsheets.
Learning how to enter and format data properly is key to making the most of this software.
Entering and Formatting Data
I use data every day, so I think being good at Excel is a must. In this section, we’ll look at entering and formatting data in Microsoft Excel.
We’ll share tips for efficient data input and editing. We’ll use reliable sources like Microsoft’s official documentation and tutorials.
We’ll also look at the formatting options that keep your data consistent and clear. Number formatting and cell styles are some of the tools that make data look professional and easier to analyze.
Tips for efficient data input and editing
Efficient data input and editing are essential for anyone who works with Microsoft Excel. To save time and increase accuracy, here are some steps to follow:
- Plan your data: Prior to data entry, plan what variables you need to capture.
- Keep it simple: Use clear labels and separate columns for data, avoid punctuation or odd characters.
- Use shortcuts: Excel offers hotkeys and other shortcuts to enter information quickly.
- Format cells: Format cells for easier entry.
- Proofread: Double-check before sharing or filing away.
Also, use shortcut keys to cut down on keystrokes and prevent RSI. Name your cells so that formulas can be used without errors. Format sheets by highlighting specific cells, columns or rows, if needed. This creates clear visual cues, ensuring everyone receives the same information. Gaining valuable insights from Excel’s capabilities!
Formatting options for clarity and consistency
Select the cells or range of cells to be formatted. Click on the ‘Home’ tab for formatting options like font, color, alignment and borders. After choosing the desired options, click ‘Apply’ to see the changes.
To ensure consistency, use the same colors for certain data like revenues and expenses, throughout the spreadsheet. Excel’s built-in templates with pre-formatted spreadsheets are a great option. They come with pre-set formatting styles.
Too much styling can be distracting, so less is more. Visual cues should not make it hard for viewers to comprehend the data. Formatting becomes even more essential with huge amounts of data being created every day.
To analyze large datasets quickly, master formulas and functions. Understanding them will allow you to carry out complex calculations with ease.
Formulas and Functions for Data Analysis
As a data analyst, you must know Microsoft Excel. One of the great things about Excel is that it can analyze data with formulas and functions.
Let’s look at how to write formulas for basic calculations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Then, we’ll move on to using functions for data analysis. Examples include calculating averages or finding the highest values.
Writing formulas for basic calculations
Select the cell where you want the result to appear. Type = and enter the calculation using cell references and/or values. Separate them with operators or parentheses.
If any part of the formula is modified, Excel will update it automatically. Keep data organized and labeled for easy referencing.
Use keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+Enter or Shift+Enter when entering formulas.
For advanced data analysis, use functions such as SUM, AVERAGE, MIN, MAX.
Utilizing functions for advanced data analysis
- Step 1: Figure Out the Function You Need – Start using functions for advanced data analysis by figuring out the type of calculation you need to perform.
- Step 2: Put the Function in a Cell – Select the cell you want to display the result of your calculation and enter the function.
- Step 3: Change Parameters If Needed – Make sure to adjust the parameters of the function before it produces accurate results.
Excel comes with lots of built-in functions, like “COUNT” for counting cells containing numbers, “MAX” for finding maximum values and “MIN” for finding minimum values.
Using relative references instead of absolute ones when working on complex spreadsheets is a good idea – it prevents issues while keeping accuracy.
Try to avoid lengthy formulas as they can make your spreadsheet hard to understand. Aim for formulas that are simple and concise.
To finish up, Visualizing Data with Charts and PivotTables is yet another important part of analyzing complex data in Excel.
Visualizing Data with Charts and PivotTables
Doing Excel with a lot of numbers and data? Overwhelming? Don’t worry! There are tools to make sense of it. We’ll explore how to visualize data with charts and PivotTables.
Creating charts and graphs that fit your data set? Check. Slicing and dicing large data sets? PivotTables are here to help. Let’s get ready to shine! Excel is about to show its brilliance.
Creating customizable charts and graphs
Create custom charts and graphs in Microsoft Excel with 4 steps:
- Select cells with data.
- Click on “Insert” tab.
- Pick chart or graph type.
- Format colors, titles, labels etc.
Customizable charts have many advantages. Easily view trends over time. Spot differences between datasets fast. Find patterns easily.
In 1951 William Playfair made the first line graph. It was used for commercial purposes and then by statisticians.
PivotTables help analyze huge datasets quickly. Summarize years of data in minutes. Easily handle data without technical skills. Get more insight when making decisions.
Maximizing data insight with PivotTables
PivotTables are great for analyzing large amounts of data. They can help you quickly compare sales figures across three regions: North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. You can rearrange columns and rows to generate summary reports, such as total revenue generated by product category in each region and their percentage contribution to overall revenue.
PivotTables are also useful for spotting lucrative opportunities, such as sales trends over time or customer behavior patterns. With one click, you can spot emerging trends from big data sets.
I used a PivotTable to analyze an e-commerce client’s sales report and found that while computers had higher overall sales, laptops were gradually overtaking them. This indicated that laptop market growth was faster than computer markets.
Now let’s dive into more complex material – Advanced Excel Features for Automation and Analysis!
Advanced Excel Features for Automation and Analysis
Let’s explore Microsoft Excel’s advanced features. These are designed to help automate repetitive tasks, analyze data quickly and reduce time spent navigating the program. Plus, they can increase productivity by tenfold!
We’ll look into Macros, which let us automate tasks with a single button click. We’ll also check out External Data Sources. This can import data from outside and directly into Excel workbooks. Finally, we’ll create Interactive Dashboards for Data Visualization. These will help you understand and communicate data easier.
Streamlining tasks with Macros
Record: Begin by recording a macro. Select the Developer Tab on the ribbon. Click “Record Macro“. Give it a name. Choose where to store it. Start recording actions.
Edit: After recording, edit the code. Modify steps or add code.
Assign: Create and edit your macro. Assign it to a button or shortcut. Run it anytime quickly.
Run: Execute the Macro. Click assigned button or press shortcut keys.
Using Macros will help automate actions. Free up time for important tasks. Improve efficiency.
Streamline repetitive activities. Data entry and formatting spreadsheets. Patience and practice. Master easily.
Accountants use Macros. Inventive automation in financial reports. Without technical training or costly classes.
Register new orders. Fill details in columns. Streamlining tedious work into manageable units. More time for higher-level analysis works.
Import external data sources. Combine data from multiple sources. Analyze from various angles or context scenarios.
Importing and utilizing external data sources
To import external data sources into Excel, go to the Data tab on the Ribbon menu and select ‘From Other Sources.’ This will bring up a dialog box with options such as importing from a file or database, or connecting to an online source.
For analysis, use Pivot Tables or Power BI tools. Database Tools under the Data Ribbon provide functions such as filtering and sorting.
For large datasets, convert imported information into tables in Excel. This helps maintain formatting and adds formulas later. Additionally, Tables provide easy access to advanced sorting filters and highlight options on modified areas.
For regular updates, establish connections for auto-populating worksheets. This bypasses manual inputs for efficiency.
In summary, Excel’s ability to import External data gives users tools for quicker analysis and automation benefits. It assists with information gathering and transforming workflow.
Creating interactive dashboards for data visualization
- Gather the data you need for your dashboard. Make sure it’s arranged for Excel functions and formulas.
- Decide on the best way to show the data with visuals, charts or graphs. Add drop-downs or checkboxes as filters to make the dashboard interactive.
- Use Excel’s slicers, charts and pivot tables. These tools let you slice and dice the data. Slicers let users filter the charts according to product lines or regions.
Make UX in mind when creating the dashboard. Keep design aesthetic grounded, but intuitive. Customize elements and use color psychology rules. Use named ranges with clear names.
One pro tip – Make sure each element of the dashboard has a purpose without too much detail. Too many visuals on one page could lead to confusion!
FAQs about How To Use Microsoft Excel

Manchester United’s latest signing Alexis Sanchez has been handed a 16-month prison sentence – according to reports.
The 29-year-old moved to Manchester United during the January transfer window in a swap deal which saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan join the Gunners. The Chilean though has been found guilty of fraud.
The forward was found guilty of defrauding the Spanish government of €983,443 during 2012 and 2013, the time when he played for Barcelona.
Reports claim that Sanchez has pleaded guilty to concealing part of his earnings from image rights.
He has also agreed to repay the money owed plus interest.
Sanchez was handed a 16-month sentence but will not be spending time in jail because he is a first-time offender and his sentence is less than two years. | <urn:uuid:17822542-3d9c-499b-a2b2-15461a8d8c5e> | CC-MAIN-2018-09 | http://thefootballfanbase.com/2018-02-1793-manchester-uniteds-alexis-sanchez-handed-16-month-prison-sentence/ | 2018-02-20T21:17:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-09/segments/1518891813109.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20180220204917-20180220224917-00359.warc.gz | en | 0.987192 | 166 |

What, no fish?
Last week, eight Year 6 boys spent eight days at the Milikapiti School on the Tiwi Islands, continuing the program begun in 2010. The boys spent time in the four classrooms from pre-school to Year 6, working closely with the local students. Both the boys and the staff were overwhelmed by the kindness of the locals, especially the students.
As well as spending time at the School, the boys visited some of the local sites and learnt about the history and culture of the Tiwi people. Visits to 9 Mile and Taracumbi Falls were welcome (croc-free) escapes from the heat. Fishing at Tim Ram Bu and Karslake allowed the boys to test their skills with the hand reel and build some patience, as the fish were just not biting on the day!
The relationships that the boys developed have only strengthened our relationship with this remote Indigenous community. All of the boys are eagerly awaiting the arrival of a small group of Milikapiti students when they visit us later this year.

On November 8, 2007, the state of California sued the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for its failure to act on the state’s vehicle emissions standards waiver request. In its lawsuit, California argues that the agency should be compelled to issue a decision on the request, which was originally made by the California Air Resources Board in December 2005. California has special authority under the Federal Clean Air Act to set its own vehicle emissions standards that go beyond federal standards, though it must first obtain a waiver from the U.S. EPA. Other states can then choose to follow either California’s regulations or the EPA’s. California’s proposed greenhouse gas emissions standards for motor vehicles would be gradually phased in starting in 2009, and by 2016 would require reductions of tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from new motor vehicles of approximately 30 percent. The fourteen other states poised to adopt the California standards will join as interveners in the lawsuit. California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger warned the federal government six months earlier that the state would file the suit if the U.S. EPA continued to delay action on the waiver request. The EPA has repeatedly stated that it will reach a decision by the end of 2007.

While we wait in anticipation for the next big thing from OPPO (read: OPPO Find 7), another smartphone from the OPPO camp just made its way into teasers, a 4.5″ one this time.
The device, OPPO Neo, might get a launch alongside the next-in-line flagship, the OPPO Find 7. While the Find 7 will be a true phablet with a 5.5-inch 2560 x 1440 pixel display, the OPPO Neo is going to be a much smaller phone with just a 4.5-inch screen. The device is teased with a ‘Glove Mode’, which makes us believe that much like the latest crop of Chinese phones, the OPPO Neo too would be operable with gloves on.
This piece was leaked by OPPO on their Indonesia Fan Page. Unfortunately there’s no news on a release date or even pricing yet. However, considering the screen size of 4.5 inches, we would like to believe that the OPPO Neo would be an affordable one. | <urn:uuid:2773c933-a1c7-47dd-9beb-02a46e9690c9> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.gizchina.com/2014/01/14/glove-friendly-oppo-neo-might-launch-alongside-find-7/ | 2022-10-04T04:47:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337473.26/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004023206-20221004053206-00185.warc.gz | en | 0.956984 | 227 |

A senior Paris public prosecutor has found evidence suggesting French finance minister Christine Lagarde, candidate to replace Dominique Strauss-Kahn as head of the International Monetary Fund, acted in a manner of "obstructing the law" in the controversial arbitration procedure that awarded French tycoon Bernard Tapie 403 million euros of public funds in 2008. Mediapart has obtained exclusive access to a report sent by the prosecutor, Jean-Louis Nadal, to the Court of Justice, which investigates cases of suspected misdeeds by serving ministers, in which he says Lagarde "constantly" usedher ministerial position to reach a "favourable" outcome for Tapie. Michel Deléan reports.
It was in April that Jean-Louis Nadal, public prosecutor with the Cour de cassation, France's highest court of appeal, was petitioned by a group of Socialist Party Members of Parliament to investigate evidence of suspected grave ministerial misconduct surrounding an arbitration procedure that awarded French businessman and one-time maverick politician Bernard Tapie with 403 million euros in July 2008.
Tapie was involved in a lengthy legal fight for damages which he brought against the Consortium de Réalisation (CDR), the French government entity responsible for the liabilities of the defunct bank, which collapsed following a high-risk lending scandal in 1993.
The Socialist MPs were concerned by the motives for the decision by French finance minister Christine Lagarde, 55, and her predecessor, Jean-Louis Borloo, a close friend of Tapie for whom he once served as a lawyer, to remove the case from the justice courts and opt for a private arbitration procedure that was highly favourable for Tapie. The decision to drop the legal fight and enter into arbitration was taken despite an October 9th 2006 plenary meeting of magistrates at the Cour de cassation (highest appeal court) had reached a judgment in the case that was considered to be favourable to the interests of the CDR and, by consequence, the state.
Lagarde, who became finance minister in June 2007 and who on Wednesday announced her candidature to become IMF Managing Director, has repeatedly denied any wrong doing and insisted that the reason to opt for arbitration was to save the state further legal fees as the dispute dragged on through the courts.
But an investigation by French parliament's Finance Commission, and a detailed report on the matter by the France's national audit office, the Court of Accounts, both found evidence that raised doubts over the conduct of Lagarde andother senior officials concerned by the case.
On May 10th, Prosecutor Nadal , after a preliminary enquiry into the MPs' petition, requested the Court of Justice of the French Republic, the CJR (which investigates cases of suspected misdeeds by serving ministers), to investigate a possible "abuse of authority" by Lagarde in her role for the settlement between the CDR and Tapie. The CJR's commission des requêtes, a ‘Petitions Commission' made up of a panel of judges which considers the validity of cases sent for the attention of the court, is expected to reacha decision in June.
Mediapart has gained exclusive access to the text of the report Nadal sent to the CJR, which we cite over the following pages (reproduced in full on page 3), in which the prosecutor described Lagarde's behaviour as "aimed at obstructing the law". The tone of the document, officially termed ‘Arequest for advice' and sent to Gérard Palisse, president of the commission des requêtes, is scathing.
Meanwhile, two separate reports have been sent to the French Budget and Finance Disciplinary Court (Cour de discipline budgétaire et financière) by the French national audit office, the Court of Accounts, (la Cour des comptes), concerning the questionable behavior of two senior civil servants involved in agreeing the settlement with Tapie.
Evidence of abuse of authority
Prosecutor Nadal's 18-page report to the Court of Justice begins with a summary of the complaints made by the nine Socialist MPs who first petitioned him on April 1st. It cites reports by French parliament's Finance Commission, and another by the Court of Accounts, both of which highlighted possible misconduct in the massive payout to Tapie.
The report also includes a summary of arguments given by Lagarde's lawyer, Yves Repiquet, in which he and the minister insist that the arbitration procedure was perfectly legitimate and that no criminal act was committed.
Nadal sets out a list of 11 points, set out in highly technical legal language, that constitute a blow-by-blow attack on the arguments presented by Lagarde and her lawyer. His report ends with this damning conclusion:
"All of these elements, attested in the documents contained in the annex, can be regarded as evidence that Madame, the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industry, a person invested with public authority, did, in the exercising of her duties, take measures aimed at obstructing the law, in the case in point, providing for the defeasance structure with which to wrap up the Tapie/Adidas litigation."
"It seems, as the number and the tone of repeated memos to her indicate, that when decisions were made to resort to an arbitration tribunal, or to exclude the Crédit Lyonnais from the debate about the arbitration process, or to envisage a challenge to the proposed arbitrators, or when the CDR was formally notified of the arbitration judgment, and finally when an appeal to have the judgment annulled was considered, that Madame, the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industry, constantly exercised her ministerial powers to reach the solution that favoured Bernard Tapie, which the plenary session of the Cour de Cassation had appeared however to have compromised."
Nadal's report highlights the questionable conditions in which a record compensation sum of almost 50 million euros was paid to Tapie by the CDR, the French public entity responsible for the liabilities of the Crédit Lyonnais for moral damages, and which caused outrage among a number of MPs. "The conditions under which approval was sought and obtained from the CDR board can be regarded as further evidence that measures existed to favour by-passing the use of law and common law legal jurisdictions, reinforcing evidence that a misdemeanour involving abuse of authority could have been committed," the prosecutor noted.
In the report, Nadal said it was questionable whether the CDR was legally empowered to enter into an arbitration process. He said that "despite the existence of opposing views, like that from the Agence des Participations de l'Etat1 dated August 1st 2007, the minister explicitly instructed the chairman of the CDR to begin the arbitration procedure, even while it refused to allow him to draw all the conclusions from the preceding legal decision that was favourable to the state's interests."
1: The Agence des Participations de l'Etat (APE), the French Agency for State Shareholdings, is the government body charged with managing corporate shareholdings owned by the French government.
'Irregular and illegal' arbitration procedure
"The minister explicitly gave instructions to include damages for moral prejudice in the scope of the arbitration judgment, even though this is excluded under the law by virtue of it being an incalculable debt that was not included in the list of matters on which there could be a compromise," Nadal said.
Jean-Louis Nadal also noted that Lagarde "explicitly authorised the CDR and the EFPR to exclude the Crédit Lyonnais from the debate on whether the arbitration was soundly based, the bank having stated its opposition to the very principle of arbitration." He said that she had "explicitly refused to consider an appeal against an arbitration judgment that was however very unfavourable for public finances," and that she "chose not to seek an opinion from the Conseil d'Etat1" on the arbitration procedure, even though there were "major questions and uncertainties over the principle of arbitration itself and its consequences for the state."
Nadal judged that a charge of "abuse of authority" could be envisaged. Such a charge implies, regarding someone invested with public authority, that they carried out action that was aimed at obstructing the law.
"In this case there is plenty of evidence showing that undertaking an arbitration procedure, and the material submitted to it (notably damages for considerable sums for a moral prejudice that had nothing to do with the CDR, abandoning any appeal against an unfavourable arbitration judgment) and the consequences that resulted from this, notably for the state, went against general principles of French public law and the legal arrangements currently in force," he wrote, adding. "The arbitration judgment had the effect, under these conditions that were irregular and illegal, of wrongly extending the CDR's guarantee to areas which should not have concerned it because of its legal status."
He concludes: "Given the gravity and significance of the facts under consideration which can be attributed to the Minister for the Economy, Finance and Industry, the matter should be referred to the Petitions Commission of the Court of Justice of the French Republic which has the jurisdiction to decide on what the next steps should be in the attached complaint."Below is a transcription of the report sent by Jean-Louis Nadal to the Court of Justice of the French Republic (available in French only):
1: The Conseil d'Etat, or Council of State, is the highest jurisdiction in France and is the final arbiter of cases relating to executive power, local authorities, independent public authorities, public administration agencies or any other agency invested with public authority.
Senior civil servants facing charges
If the CJR's Petitions Commission follows Nadal's advice, the case will be sent to the court's investigative commission. This can decide that there is no case to answer, or inversely decide to send Lagarde for trial before a panel of judges - a process that is normally a lengthy one.
Bénard notified the CDBF of suspected illegal acts and irregularities committed by the Rocchi and Scemama in the Tapie arbitration procedure, and the cases were immediately transferred to Gérard Palisse, president of the CJR Petitions Commission.
The CDBF is, by its own official description, "a specialised administrative jurisdiction charged with sanctioning violations related to public finance" created in 1948 "for the purpose of sanctioning management misconduct committed against the central government and various bodies and creating a budget disciplinary court." It has the power to fine the senior civil servants it may find guilty of offences, when they can be held financially to account for the losses they are judged to have caused the state.

The demand for Halal cosmetics has witnessed a recent upsurge as Muslims around the world become more aware that a majority of products available in the market are non-permissible or haram. The trend is more pronounced in Asia Pacific, which is the home to nearly 60% of the world’s Muslim population. This phenomenon makes the global cosmetic industry becoming more cautious about the quality and halal status of their products as this will influence the revenue of the company in a greater scale. Statistical Process Control (SPC) is a method of quality control to monitor the production process using statistical measures. Its practice in halal cosmetics production process is intended to provide the assurance that the overall production process adheres to the shariah law. Accordingly, this study identifies the factors affecting SPC implementation in halal cosmetics companies. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) is used to model the effect of SPC implementation in selected halal cosmetics companies based on the identified factors. The results show that Management Commitment posed a significant effect on SPC implementation, along with other factors.

Conserving the environment among individuals is an important behaviour to save the world from human lifestyles and activities that harm the nature. Some of these problems can be alleviated or slowed down if people care for the nature. In general, a government servant’s role is implementing government policies by coordinating and overseeing various economic and social services in order to achieve national growth and development. These individuals may have differences in their thinking, upbringing, background, perspective, knowledge, and daily routines. Therefore, the study aimed to determine whether civil servant’s cognitive (i.e. knowledge) and noncognitive skills (i.e. attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control) affected their behaviour in conserving the environment. Using Smart PLS analysis, the findings showed that out of the four variables studied, subjective norm and perceived behavioural control affected the population’s behaviour. This study concludes that understanding what elements affect the civil servants’ conservation behaviour is very important. It provides a good insight for the policymakers in designing strategies that are environment-friendly and enabling various development agendas to be achieved in the long-term.

Most business transactions are utilising mobile payments for the convenience of their consumers. This evolution encourages more mobile payment providers to emerge in China. As such, China’s own payment provider such as Alipay is facing stiff competition from its competitors. This prompts the question of whether its consumers are satisfied with the current services offered. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to test the consumer satisfaction for Alipay in China using the revised Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). A total of 552 questionnaires were collected and analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Several variables in the revised TAM such as perceived trust, perceived ease of use, and perceived service quality were used to measure consumer satisfaction for Alipay. The specified variables were found to be relevant in measuring their satisfaction for Alipay services. The findings from this research paper will help to enhance Alipay’s competitiveness by exploring further into areas of improvement and maintaining its status as the market leader.

User perception is considered to be a prominent factor in evaluating Information Communication Technology (ICT) implementation in higher education. Using Structural Equation Modeling, this study aimed to examine a successful model of Blended Learning (BL) implementation. The model was constructed from six latent variables, namely: Information Quality, Internet Self-efficacy, System Usage, User Satisfaction, E-learning Success, and Faculty-Student Interaction. The respondents consisted of 185 students from two Indonesian private higher education institutions deploying BL. The measurement model showed that all variables possessed an adequate model compatibility according the following values: c2/df = 1.559; CFI = 0.954; IFI = 0.955; TLI = 0.94, and RMSEA = 0.055. Meanwhile, the structural model revealed that seven out of nine hypotheses were proven to be significant. In particular, information quality and internet self-efficacy significantly influenced system usage and user satisfaction, whereas user satisfaction was influenced by system usage. In contrast, system usage did not affect e-learning success and faculty interaction, rendering the latter elements (i.e. E-learning success and faculty interaction) to be influenced by user satisfaction.

The utilisation of direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical drug advertising (DCPDA) continues to elicit divergent views within the healthcare community. Therefore, this study examined the relationship between DCPDA and certain indicators of public perception such as awareness, knowledge, attitude, and behaviour concerning advertised pharmaceutical substance. The findings revealed that exposure to pharmaceutical drug advertising increased respondent awareness, knowledge, attitude, and behaviour towards issues of their healthcare. They suggested that pharmaceutical companies with huge financial resources could engender a high purchase behaviour by maintaining high media visibility. This could translate into a high level of brand awareness, high perceived knowledge, and positive attitude, thereby reflecting in favourable purchase behaviour.

The advancement of internet, social media, and digital technologies has profoundly transformed the traditional offline businesses to online businesses. The transformation of these technologies has altered the consumer experience and decision when buying from an e-commerce website. Thus, the purpose of this study was to critically discuss and examine the consumer experience factors that impact consumer buying decision intention, as well as the manner in which consumer review influenced the relationship between consumer experience and buying decision intention. Based on the flow theory, this study focused on the role of web and digital experiences on consumer’s buying decision intention from e-commerce website via the contexts of social media and mobile application. Therefore, it was found that web experience (i.e. usability, interactivity, and aesthetic) and digital experience were critical factors for online buying decision intention. Data collected from 973 respondents suggested that web and digital experiences posed a positive effect on the consumer buying decision intention. Accordingly, the research model was developed to illustrate the comprehensive and respective relationship of web and digital experiences of buying intention. The moderating effect of consumer review also showed significantly positive outcome between digital experience and buying decision intention. Hence, this study is significant in such a way that it extends the flow theory by exploring the role and outcomes of the consumers’ experience towards buying decision intention. Moreover, it provides insightful guidelines for marketers with several practical implications in approaching the emerging markets via consumer experience initiatives.

The negative impact on the environment can be reduced by consumers opting for green consumption. Therefore, this study examined the effect of cognitive factors toward green purchase intention through the mediating role of green purchase attitude, as well as toward green purchase behavior among millennials in Malaysia and China. An extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) model was applied by considering the cognitive factors of environmental concern, perceived consumer effectiveness, and perceived environmental knowledge accordingly. The model was analyzed via PLSSEM by using the data collected from 183 and 134 Malaysian and Chinese millennials, respectively. The findings revealed that the green purchase intention was positive and significantly driven directly by green purchase attitude for both countries. All three cognitive factors were found to, directly and indirectly, drive the mediating role of green purchase attitudes in the context of Malaysia. In contrast, environmental concern was the only cognitive factor that was directly and significantly related to green purchase attitude. Hence, green purchase intention was a significant factor and measure in predicting green purchase behavior in the model.

US announces new efforts against monkeypox
WASHINGTON (CNN) - The Biden administration is ramping up its efforts against monkeypox.
On Thursday, U.S. health officials announced an additional 1.8 million doses of the monkeypox vaccine will soon be available.
They are planning to make the vaccine available onsite at large-scale gatherings of gay and bisexual men, a community hard-hit by the virus. They’re also outlining a plan to make treatment for monkeypox more accessible.
More than 13,500 cases have now been found in the U.S.
While intimate contact is the highest-risk form of spread, the White House says other populations could also become more vulnerable to monkeypox, including college students, sports teams and children at day care centers.

Now that the glimpses of sun are getting more frequent, those of the more prepared of you will have started to think about what to wear when it finally does get a little warmer. This is where the ever lasting underwear-as-outerwear trend comes into its own. Yes you can wear the fail safe silk cami/wool jumper and jeans in the winter but as the summer time comes around the warmer weather permits you to be a bit more adventurous.
We have a couple of long line bras from Mimi Holliday and Fleur of England, which look great worn with a high waisted skirt or trousers. If that sounds a bit too daring for you, try throwing on a lightweight cardigan that can be buttoned up in a couple of places to make you feel a little less exposed.
Another option is to show off your favourite bra by un-buttoning your shirt one button extra than you usually would, giving a naughty glimpse of silk and lace without looking too over the top. For this I would recommend making sure that your bra isn’t too see-through to make sure you avoid any nipple flashes.
Silk slips are a great investment as they can be worn with leggings and heels for a dressy look or teamed with ballet flats and layered with a plain cotton t-shirt over the top for a more casual look. If your slip is sheer then a basic nude or black slip worn underneath will do the job of keeping your modesty intact. | <urn:uuid:835e8bd0-fab7-427c-aa5f-6c981b20e07c> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | https://lovedbydulcie.wordpress.com/2012/03/12/underwear-as-outerwear/ | 2018-01-17T10:51:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084886895.18/warc/CC-MAIN-20180117102533-20180117122533-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.948721 | 301 |

I think Mars could have been that kind of world. That planet was apparently very similar to Earth, with forests, water, etc. And well, it is very close, there are chances that at least some people from there came to Earth. Possibly after some destruction in that planet.
These are theories of course but they make sense if we observe.
I am sure humans did not naturally evolve on Earth; not like other animal species. Human evolution has been linked to alien people thoughout history.
I have had the theory that humans are the result of mixing ape and alien DNA.
No but our origin soul is extra terestial in nature if you look into the Buddhist phelosphy they call it something else cannot remember now. I know you have a gross mind, unconscious mind and there's there elemental side but there are many possibilities so keep an open mindGalaxyDreamer90 wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2019 2:01 pmLast February I had a past life regression confirming what I had always felt since I was a child, that I come from another forest world. I didn't end up remembering much, but I remember being a young woman about the equivalent of 20 years old on earth and was walking through the forest. I was clearly human though I was on another world. I'm sure I was on another world because the white flowing dress I was wearing didn't seem to be from any era in earth's history that I know of. Before this regression as a teenager I would have dreams about aliens and I was surprised that they were human like us because I expected them to look like little gray men that we associate with aliens or to look completely different from us. Could it be that we humans are from another world and this other world could be the forest world from my past life regression. I just finished watching a video explaining that humans could have come from another planet but not entirely sure though my past life regression seems to indicate that they are right.
May peace be with you
If you are interested in becoming a "walker between worlds" take a peek into Wicca and Witchcraft. Our ritual Circle is a doorway between worlds. Ritual Circles are found around the planet at nearly every ancient archeological site. Witchcraft has been much maligned by the prevailing religions as an evil alliance with the devil but nothing could be farther from the truth as Witches don't even believe in an evil Divinity as invented by Christianity to indenture the minds of their faithful. Witches have been called "Wise Ones" through the ages and are in tune with the Infinite.

HealthDay and Harris Interactive conducted a recent poll measuring current support for the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Their recent results were not too surprising: 36% of adults say they want the law repealed, 25% want to see the law modified and 21% want the law to remain as is. The apparent divide has been linked to partisan lines – which has been attributed to the fact that people’s knowledge of health care reform is arbitrary, and therefore sticking to party lines by default.
Since ACA passed, there has been a slow steady increase in acceptance for the provisions included in the bill. To name one, 57% support children on parents’ insurance plans until they turn twenty-six, which is only 2% higher than the November 2010 rate of support.
The research has not caught up to the masses. President Obama’s State of the Union speech barely touched health care reform. It’s no wonder because there has been a steady piling of data and research that show ACA’s unintended consequences and why it will fail to reduce healthcare costs. President and Chief Executive Officer of the Pacific Research Institute, Sally C. Pipes recently published a blue print for replacing ACA that favors a free market approach. There have also been alternative ideas introduced in the Senate that could replace the ACA if repealed.
Whether Pipes’ plan or any other plan is right is subjective, but what can be taken away is that ACA is not going to end the health care reform debate. | <urn:uuid:727a8366-1f5a-4f50-b16a-8ba52eb8f841> | CC-MAIN-2017-51 | https://policyinterns.com/2012/01/31/health-care-reform-recent-poll-shows-signs-of-confusion/ | 2017-12-14T09:51:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-51/segments/1512948543611.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20171214093947-20171214113947-00352.warc.gz | en | 0.965013 | 301 |

President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) Visits the Republic of Paraguay
On June 28, President Tsai met with her Paraguayan counterpart, President Horacio Cartes at the Presidential Palace and he conferred a Marshal Francisco Solano Lopez Honor Medal, a Paraguayan national medal of honor, on her. She also met with the President of the Senate, Mario Abdo Benítez, and gave an address to the Paraguayan National Congress.
President Tsai inaugurated the new building of the Embassy of the Republic of China (Taiwan) in Paraguay later the same day. On this occasion, she was presented with a key to the city of Asuncion by Mayor Mario Ferreiro, as a symbol of the friendship between these two countries.
On June 29, President Tsai hosted a breakfast at her hotel suite for representatives of the Paraguayan scholarship students. During the meeting the president commented on the educational cooperation between Taiwan and Paraguay, which has achieved outstanding results.
The Taiwan Scholarship Alumni agreed and expressed their gratitude for the opportunities Taiwan offers to young people in Paraguay through scholarships and study programs. They also expressed their willingness to keep working together with the Embassy of the Republic of China (Taiwan) in Paraguay to strengthen ties between the two countries and to share their experiences as scholarship recipients with other young people in Paraguay to encourage them to also interact with Taiwan.
Later that day, President Tsai attended a ceremony at General Andrés Rodríguez School to acknowledge the donation of computers and tablets to educational institutions in Paraguay at all levels by Taiwan´s ASUS Foundation. During the ceremony, President Tsai thanked ASUS Foundation for donating the computers and expressed her hope that Paraguayan students will have opportunities for better development through information and communications technology.

City Administrator Fred Russell is among the finalists for a similar job in Sarasota County, Fla., according to media reports there.
The Palm Beach Post and the Herald-Tribune in Sarasota reported Tuesday that Russell is one of eight candidates for county administrator, narrowed from a field of 45 by The Mercer Group, an executive search firm.
Russell said Tuesday afternoon he had not been informed about his finalist status, but that he’d decided over the summer to begin looking at other options.
“Given the nature of the situation, it would be prudent to look around a little bit, yes,” Russell said.
A former deputy police chief in Richmond, Va., and director of the Virginia Crime Commission, Russell came to Augusta as deputy administrator in 2002. He was named Augusta city administrator in 2005 after the resignation of George Kolb.
Sarasota County, on Florida’s western coast, is home to 381,000 permanent residents, almost twice that of Augusta. According to The Mercer Group’s job listing, the county has a commission-administrator form of government in which the commission appoints only two employees — the administrator and the county attorney.
Russell has come under fire in recent months during efforts by a majority of commissioners to increase his authority to hire, fire and promote employees without commission approval. His July decision to promote and award hefty raises to 44 employees involved in a reorganization of several city departments surprised most of the 10-member commission, but the raises remain in effect.
He goes against administrators from York County, S.C.; West Palm Beach; Daytona Beach; and other Florida counties and cities also named among the top eight, according to The Post. Sarasota’s county commission is expected to narrow the field further next Tuesday.
Russell said thoughts about relocating his family to Florida were premature.
“There’s a lot of work that I’m proud of that we’ve done in Augusta, and a lot of work I want to do,” he said. “I just want to explore my options.” | <urn:uuid:3c63bfe5-bc4e-4d09-8a80-5269c89f92f0> | CC-MAIN-2017-26 | http://chronicle.augusta.com/metro-latest-news-government/2011-11-01/augusta-city-administrator-named-finalist-sarasota-county | 2017-06-28T19:23:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-26/segments/1498128323730.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20170628185804-20170628205804-00391.warc.gz | en | 0.967582 | 435 |

Two soldiers from the same regiment were killed in separate incidents in Afghanistan today - as tributes were paid to a "true hero" killed in an explosion yesterday.
One soldier from 21 Engineer Regiment was killed in a blast and another in a traffic accident, the Ministry of Defence said. Next of kin have been informed.
The soldier who died yesterday in a blast in Sangin, Helmand province, was named as Corporal Harvey Alex Holmes, 22, from Hyde, Greater Manchester.
Today's deaths, both in the Nad-e Ali area of Helmand, took the number of British service personnel who have died since the start of operations in Afghanistan in 2001 to 284.
Spokesman for Task Force Helmand, Lieutenant Colonel James Carr-Smith, said of the soldier killed in the blast: "He was travelling to meet up with local Afghan contractors prior to continuing with reconstruction programmes when he was killed in an explosion.
"He died seeking to improve the lives of the people of Helmand province. His sacrifice will not be forgotten."
Lieutenant Colonel Carr-Smith said of the soldier killed in the traffic accident: "He was part of a team conducting a reconnaissance to replace a bridge over a canal in the Nad-e Ali district of Helmand, in order that local Afghans could travel more freely, when he was killed in a traffic accident.
"He died in the course of his duty; we will remember him."
The MoD said that Cpl Holmes, of 1st Battalion The Mercian Regiment, was providing protection for his patrol as it investigated a compound when yesterday's fatal explosion happened.
He was killed by an improvised explosive device close to patrol base Waterloo, in Sangin.
His family released a statement which read: "Harvey lived for his family and his friends but his passion was the army.
"He has made his family extremely proud for the sacrifice he has made and will be missed every day.
"Harvey has died a true hero and will be with us forever in our hearts."
His death was the first since 7 April.
Lieutenant Colonel Andrew Hadfield, Commanding Officer 1st Battalion The Mercian Regiment (Cheshire), said: "He showed true promise and had a great future, but this has been cruelly stolen from him, his family, his girlfriend and his many friends.
"In his five years with the First Battalion he had passed some of the most arduous courses on offer, and served in Northern Ireland, Belize, the Falkland Islands and Iraq. He had been promoted twice in quick succession, most recently to corporal just last Christmas."
He added: "We will remember him as the Cheshire oak that he was, standing firm always, and striking hard only to save others who were in trouble.
"He was the epitome of the modern British soldier and we will miss him deeply. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this most difficult of times."
Major Mark Ellwood MBE, Officer Commanding A Company, 1st Battalion The Mercian Regiment (Cheshire), added: "Corporal Harvey Holmes, known by all as 'Holmesy', was the very epitome of professionalism.
"Whilst serving in the Falkland Islands, he was able to visit Mount Longdon where his late father had served with the Parachute Regiment during the 1982 conflict.
"This was an emotional experience for him as his father was a huge inspiration to him."
Defence Secretary Bob Ainsworth said: "I was so very sorry to hear of the death of Corporal Holmes.
"He was clearly a hugely popular and capable soldier whose talents had been recognised through quick promotion within 1st Battalion The Mercian Regiment.

It is hard to tell exactly what you need, but it sounds like you want to access the configuration specific custom properties of a component referenced in a drawing. Is that correct?
Assuming it is, you could something like this for a selected drawing view:
1. Get the root component using IVIew::RootDrawingComponent
2. Get the IComponent2 pointer using IDrawingComponent::Component
3. Get the component's underlying IModelDoc2 pointer using IComponent2::GetModelDoc2
4. Get the custom property manager for the model using IModelDocExtension::CustomPropertyManager. You specify whether you want the documental-level custom properites (the Custom tab) or the configuration specific custom properties via the argument in this method. So for example, if you had a configuration called "Short" you would get its custom props like this:
Dim swCustPropMgr as SldWorks.CustomPropertyManager
Set swCustPropMgr = swModel.Extension.CustomPropertyManager("Short")
5. You can traverse all of the custom properties in a configuration using ICustomPropertyManager::GetAll.

My husband was an office manager at one time during his working career. He said he was in charge of everything from payroll to office supplies. One of the things that he says was important is “branding” your business. In other words, your business having a recognizable logo, letter head and business envelopes that identify your business brand you to your customers. He says you can find at cheap envelope printing at zooprinting.com. Controlling cost is important to your business and find the best value for your business needs, like envelopes, can save you a lot of money over time. | <urn:uuid:d4678b75-3898-46c0-b0a5-bd9f828634cf> | CC-MAIN-2017-04 | http://www.mydailymumbles.com/2013/07/13/branding-your-business/ | 2017-01-24T11:12:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-04/segments/1484560284405.58/warc/CC-MAIN-20170116095124-00203-ip-10-171-10-70.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.985826 | 123 |
How long does counseling usually take?
The therapeutic process varies greatly for each individual.

5 Clinical Simulation Best Practices for Long-Term Virtual OSCE Success
While the COVID-19 pandemic may have changed demand for in-person learning, Education Management Solutions’ (EMS) commitment to providing quality educational experiences has not shifted. Through development of the SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE solution, the company has been able to provide virtual healthcare simulation management technology to help clients and continue to deliver their best-in-class virtual, video-based curricula. This instruction includes observations, accrual of requisite clinical examination hours, boards and high-stakes exams such as the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). Along with these benefits, when combined with clinical simulation best practices, simulation educators can set themselves up for long-term virtual OSCE success.
Virtual OSCE technologies allow healthcare simulation educators to deliver clinical decision-making training, a core requirement for effective post-graduate Residency clinical practices. They also make the ability to run an OSCE session from any location possible while providing a clear, consistent workflow for even the most technologically inexperienced participants. Further, they enhance retention by empowering learners to repeatedly view tutorials, clinical simulations and recorded sessions.
Being able to leverage instructors, staff and standardized patients (SPs) across multiple locations can help to maximize a return on investment (ROI) and overall flexibility as well. To ensure that these benefits and sustainable long-term successes are achieved during the adoption of virtual OSCE training, EMS recommends implementing the following five best practices.
1. Integrated Teleconferencing: Simulation educators can facilitate live-learner and SP interaction via video-teleconferencing. They may also record sessions for debriefing with seamless, built-in integration. Virtual simulation management technology empowers simulation educators to schedule remote, video-based sessions between learners and SPs, conduct remote training, debrief, review clinical decision making with learners and more.
2. Advanced Reporting: Best practice reporting can help assure the long-term success of a simulation educator’s training initiatives. Their virtual OSCE platform makes being able to report on the complete spectrum of their educational programs possible, providing checklists and student performance assessments. They can then export the reports to a preferred format for detailed analysis.
3. Enhanced Workflows: Simulation educators can optimize their remote training and pre- and post-session workflows via an intuitive, multi-device user interface. The virtual OSCE solution makes learning to schedule sessions and teleconference meetings in advance easy. They can also use the virtual OSCE to conduct live or recorded session reviews. Plus, the technology automatically gives learners and SPs the resources they need to succeed with role-based access to requisite materials. Further, simulation educators who need to add a paging announcement can pre-record their message to automatically play through the browsers of learners or SPs.
4. Adaptive Scheduling: The virtual OSCE platform also simplifies scheduling standalone or multi-encounter sessions in advance – or on the fly with real-time session creation. Virtual sessions can be created at any time, from any location or connected device and learner and SP encounters are captured within one contiguous video asset. The encounters are then available via playback for easy reviewing and secure sharing.
5. Powerful Security: Security matters! Passwords are required for all virtual encounters, giving you confidence that the full scope of your virtual clinical training delivery – including live OSCEs, debriefings, exports, archives and student and SP data – is protected by advanced encryption. Plus, you may securely observe and provide quality control for the entire educational experience across multiple locations via an intuitive virtual OSCE dashboard.
More About SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE
For those shifting their clinical simulation operations to hybrid or online learning, EMS’ SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE empowers the delivery of video-based OSCE encounters anytime, anywhere. This innovation is designed to help simulation educators meet a continuous need for assessment-driven clinical reasoning training.
The solution includes clinical decision-making training that addresses communications skills, history taking, physical exams, patient interactions and diagnoses. It also covers both clinical and therapeutic decision making. Along with improving key communications, the SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE provides a pathway to enhance these critical training workflows.
The numbers speak for themselves: Since March 2020, SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE users have completed over 60,700 live encounters. That amounts to 321,000+ minutes of real-time, virtual clinical decision-making education!
Example of Virtual OSCE Success
To better understand how virtual OSCE technology has a powerful, immediate impact on educational delivery and clinical learning outcomes, one need only look to McMaster University’s Michael G. DeGrotte School of Medicine. Due to COVID-19, clinical simulation training across the university’s three campuses came to a standstill last spring, leading the faculty of the health sciences department to explore alternatives to keep their clinical skills curriculum on track. After evaluating multiple in-house and external technology options, McMaster University decided to move forward with the unique SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE solution from Education Management Solutions (EMS).
All learners, instructors, SPs and facilitators – more than 500 individuals in total – needed to be connected together in a live virtual environment. The SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE platform captured each encounter, tracked evaluations and recorded all events for additional playback, review, assessment, scoring and debriefing. Security was a key requirement, and the SIMULATIONiQ Virtual OSCE platform, with secure single sign-on access, ensured all student evaluations and encounters remained confidential, even in a fully remote environment.
Ultimately, 1,243 individual case encounters were run in a single day. All 204 learners completed six recorded cases, along with four additional cases, supported by 63 SPs and 126 faculty and staff. The system was set up and configured, and all staff received training, in less than two weeks. Since then, McMaster University has continued to deliver high-impact training and assessment to learners.

California. Clint works at a gas station, owned by a certain Martin Bormann, and is often annoyed by his spoiled girlfriend SuperAngel. During a heated argument, Harry, a police officer, mistakenly assumes Clint threatens her, so he knocks him unconscious. Harry wants to have sex with SuperAngel, but quickly learns that only Clint could handle her irritating behavior, so he kills her. Since he is the main suspect, Clint flees, but wherever he goes, busty women want to sleep with him, which makes him the target of revenge of their husbands or fathers. Finally, he meets Supervixen and falls in love with her. Harry finds them and wants to kill them, but dies by his own dynamite.
"Supervixens" - one of the last three films which showed the most of nudity directed by Russ Meyer, "the king of big breasts" who somehow found some of the most unbelievable women to ever grace the big screens - is a trashy and incoherent mess of a film that works far better as an erotic comedy than as a crime flick whose 'dumbed down' violence is again repulsive (and Charles Napier is awful as the bad guy, especially since his actions make little to no sense), as if he is both fascinated by these women but hates them at the same time (maybe because they are unobtainable?). When one watches the story, one really gets the feeling where "Tenchi Muyo" and "Golden Boy" got all their ideas of a 'poor guy' constantly 'harassed' by busty women, yet Meyer wastes it just by creating a wacky world of his own without any coherence, meaning or a point - the only exception is when he tries to add a little humor, such as the best episode, the one on the farm when he shows an ironic sequence of Clint working there while the farmer and his young wife are naked and chasing each other in the background. The story would have been better if it focused just on pure erotic adventures, maybe it could have even been a good love story, yet some viewers even today pardon Meyer for his bizarre escapades for the sheer fact that he rallied so many beautiful women in his films who almost seem as if they came from a male fantasy, especially Uschi Digard and Christy Hartburg. | <urn:uuid:204dc06c-3377-42f0-aef7-1f32b933e7de> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | http://moviecritic2000.blogspot.com/2012/07/supervixens.html | 2018-01-22T04:18:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084890991.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20180122034327-20180122054327-00492.warc.gz | en | 0.980501 | 480 |

Fuel, Fracking Chemicals Contaminating Groundwater, Infinite Growth Paradigm, Inverted Totalitarianism, Keystone XL Pipeline, Offshoring of CO2 Emissions, Regulatory Capture, Superorganism of Industrial Civilization, The 'Clean Coal' Myth, Wall Street Fraud
President Obama recently unveiled his plans for America to cut its CO2 emissions 30% compared to 2005 levels by 2030 “to limit warming below the 2˚C ceiling agreed by countries“, a plan that Al Gore declares “the most important step taken to combat the climate crisis in our country’s history.” I’m here to explain to you that if that is the best the human race can muster, we’re trapped in a very sad state of anthropocentric denial.
Keeping in mind that humans of industrial civilization have thus far warmed the planet by 0.85˚C in the last couple hundred years, the extreme weather events that have occurred just in the last decade, let alone in the last year, are clear evidence of an increasingly destabilized climate system. Catastrophic changes in the glacial zones of the Arctic and Antarctic have been set into motion, altering global jet streams and weather patterns as well as locking in a sea level rise that will make most coastal cities uninhabitable within a couple of generations. Thus we can see that the target of 2˚C is a totally fraudulent upper limit for anything safe; industrial civilization has already passed the point of no return into climate chaos.
From day one when he entered office, Obama was never anything but a yes man to corporate interests. As far as energy is concerned, Obama is the “clean coal” guy even though there is no such thing. Ethanol from corn is a big joke as well with a net energy of nil. Meanwhile, the increasing price of food does not get figured into the CPI. The Keystone XL pipeline is already approved and being built piece by piece while Democrats and mainstream environmentalists pretend it’s still something under consideration. Obama’s current plans include “an incentive for states to develop regional carbon-trading systems”, despite the fact that such pollution swapping schemes have historically been proven to be rife with fraud and failure. There is no “right price” for carbon. Assisting BP in covering up the largest environmental disaster in American history and allowing fracking consultants to write their environmental impact report are a couple other highlights on Obama’s record that don’t inspire confidence. When it comes to protecting the planet for future generations, both parties in our political duopoly have essentially followed the same omnicidal path. Lou at The Cost of Energy points out:
The US political system is so broken, so blatantly an open bazaar where corporations can buy public policy puppets like so many street hookers, that it’s hard to imagine any policy stronger than the new EPA proposal going into effect and not being killed by the next presidential administration or strangled by the purse strings controlled by the Congress…
The commercial, capitalist part of society has completely outstripped the interests of humanity as a whole. In the case of fossil fuels, private firms and individuals are carrying out activities which are having dire consequences for everyone, but corporations are only interested in their own advantage and in fact are required by law to place shareholders’ interests above all else with no regard to the long-term well-being of the global community and future generations.
Although CO2 emissions have fallen in the U.S. in recent years due primarily to electricity plants switching to the cheaper source of natural gas, they have jumped back up once again according to the latest reports. Demand for coal abroad has also been on the rise with the U.S. exporting its supply to meet the demand. However, most disturbing is the following graph which illustrates that in the last 164 years, no new energy source has ever stopped our expanding usage of fossil fuels. Levels of carbon extraction are perhaps a more telling indicator of the primacy of fossil fuels and the direct correlation between economic growth and global emissions than the energy statistics of any one particular country:
…as Mike Berners-Lee and I argue in The Burning Question, despite radical changes in the global energy mix over the last two centuries (and even more radical changes within individual countries) energy use and carbon emissions have undergone remarkably consistent long-term exponential growth. The implication is that there’s a technological and social feedback loop at work, with each new energy source increasing access to and demand for all the other sources. Energy begets energy.
The graph below, which shows total human energy use since 1850, reflects this. When coal use took off in the nineteenth century biomass energy didn’t decline as is often assumed. In fact it increased, helped rather than hindered by coal-powered industrialisation and globalisation. Similarly, coal use increased when society started extracting large amounts of oil – which makes sense given that oil not only proved useful for coal mining but also enabled the mass roll-out both of cars and energy-hungry suburban homes. In turn, gas and hydro helped drive technological and engineering revolutions that have made obscure oil sources more viable…
…The fact that new energy sources tend to be additional to existing ones helps explain why more gas production has dinted neither US carbon extraction nor global emissions. But critics of gas beware: the same caveat applies to genuinely low-carbon energy sources such as renewables and nuclear, or indeed increasing energy efficiency. We usually assume that installing a wind turbine or nuclear plant will reduce global emissions but that’s not necessarily true, since the fossil fuel that the clean energy system replaces may get burned elsewhere instead, perhaps kick-starting new energy feedback loops in other parts of the world and driving global carbon emissions up yet further.
In some cases there has even been talk of using low-carbon energy sources directly to increase fossil fuel flows. For example, modular nuclear reactors are being considered as a way to propel natural gas down the remote pipelines that bring energy to Europe’s homes and power plants, or for melting tar to produce oil for the world’s billion-strong car fleet. This seems crazy at first given that it would be more efficient and less polluting to use the nukes directly for producing electricity, but existing infrastructure can determine our energy choices as much as the available energy sources do…
…there’s little evidence so far that fracking, wind power, nuclear or any other technology is helping us leave any carbon in the ground. Indeed, as I wrote recently, despite all the renewable power installed so far, all the fracking rigs, all the energy efficiency gains, all the national carbon cuts, and even a collapse in average fertility levels, global emissions are still growing at the same rate today as they were in the 1850s… – link
In The Biophysics of Civilization, Money = Energy, and the Inevitability of Collapse, a similar correlation was demonstrated between money (the economy) and CO2 emissions. Without fundamentally changing the economy’s dependency upon growth and profit, emissions will continue to rise and deceptive non-solutions will continue to be sold to the public. Even if all human industrial activity ceased this instant, we would still be looking at upwards of a 2.65˚C temperature rise, but capitalist industrial civilization is a superorganism that is on an unwavering trajectory. The scales have been tipped out of favor for mankind. The geologic pendulum will swing back to bring things into balance over millennia, and in the process industrial civilization will be crush beneath the iron hand of natural law.
One look inside the self-serving and hypocritical mind of those running in society’s elite circles will tell you there is no chance for any radical departure from the moribund thinking which keeps the rotted status quo in place.
[Nate Hagens: …from a (good?) friend of mine – married to a billionaire, very connected, energy investment guy – i sent him the EPA announcement]
You have seen the movie Idiocracy, right? Well President Mountain Dew Commacho in that movie is a better leader than BO. At least Commacho knew sometimes you need to listen to smart people & put them in charge.
Long story short, the presidency is in meltdown mode. Everyone has figured out what I told you…he is a bad guy. Whether you definition of “bad guy” is a person who used his skin color to get where he is in DC then holding the US hostage to his bitter, bigoted edicts; or just a lucky ne’er do well who wanted to save the world, but instead made it worse. HE IS DONE! <<<the exclamation point is Carney quitting.
Nate, none of what he does means squat (especially the agencies like EPA)…dems/repub know it. Next elections will save the economy for 20-30 more years…I know you & I disagree on the timeline. I hope, and pray, you are wrong…but I do know your logic is correct.
Buy coal/BTU tomorrow on the dip.
Like the radiation from Fukushima, CO2 emissions are invisible and their calamitous effects can play out over generations. The masses simply can’t stomach hard reality when they are entranced by a techno-capitalist wonderland of mental distractions and virtual reality pitfalls. | <urn:uuid:aeb187e7-511d-4393-8afa-4ba4a9534694> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://collapseofindustrialcivilization.com/tag/keystone-xl-pipeline/ | 2019-07-18T07:47:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195525524.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20190718063305-20190718085305-00328.warc.gz | en | 0.938297 | 1,994 |
Sometimes certain types of cars become popular not because they're practical, efficient, perform well, or even make sense. Sometimes it's pure demographics. That's the conclusion of Erich Merkle, head U.S. sales analyst at Ford Motor Company. We caught up with Merkle on a recent visit to New York City to get his take on what's ahead for the auto industry.
What are the biggest factors driving purchasing trends in the car industry these days? The boomers and the millennials... [are] kind of like the double humps on a camel [on a demographic graph]. These two segments... will continue to change the automotive landscape. There are about 80 million baby boomers; it's such a massive number of people that they have the ability to expand and collapse entire [vehicle] segments as they move through their various life stages.
Boomers have the ability to buy new vehicles, [so] they pay the bills in this industry. You've got a massive number of them now that are moving into retirement—about 10,000 a day. That will continue for the next 18 to 19 years. Those that aren't retired are starting to think about it.
The millenials, that's the investment piece of it. Because even though they only represent about 13 or 14 percent of new-car purchases today, the millenials have not yet fully exerted themselves into the marketplace. Some of it's just because of their station in life right now and the poor economy. But they will. They have a lot of time in front of them to purchase vehicles.
And toward the end of this decade, the boomers and the millenials... 80 million and 80 million, that's 160 million people. People don't realize how big that age demographic of our population just is.
What is your evidence for the impact of boomers on the car market? If you track [boomers] when they were in their late 20s and early 30s, back in the 1970s, they wanted small, with great value: the Datsun B210, Honda Civic, Volkswagen Bug. Cost of ownership was very important to them. They didn't have a lot of money to spend. Fuel economy was important. They were young and single... space wasn't a real issue... because of their station in life at that time.
Now when they moved forward, things like minivans became very popular, because in the 1980s, they started to have children, and it provided them this lower cost of ownership. The fuel efficiency was still there, but it also provided them the utility that they needed.
Now as they got older yet, as you started going into the '90s, and into the 2000s, many of these 80 million people were passing through their peak income and spending years. Is cost of ownership important? Not really. The kids are getting bigger; they're teenagers, and they need space. Their kids have friends. And because cost of ownership wasn't important, it really gave rise to the SUV.
Now, the kids are starting to leave the house in big numbers; [baby boomers] are becoming empty nesters.
So they don't need quite the size anymore. But what they do need is that lower cost of ownership. They're starting to think, "How am I going to save for retirement?" [So] $120 for a fill-up is just not in the equation right now.
What types of cars or vehicle attributes will these two groups of people demand? Cost of ownership, just like it was 40 years ago, has become important to these folks again. But they still like their utility. So many, many of them are looking at small utility vehicles.
Back in 2000, the small utility segment represented 800,000 vehicles a year. Today that number is over 1.7 million. It's more than doubled, and it's the only segment that has fully recovered to its pre-recessionary highs. I think small utilities will continue to grow.
The millenials aren't quite there, yet. The youngest of them are in their early 30s. We believe that as they move toward the end of this decade, they will have more need for utility for the same reasons their parents did back in the day. They'll have kids and car seats. For boomers, it will become important for ingress and egress.
We are very bullish about this is one of the things that we see—the convergence of needs.
What other types of demographic trends are driving the changing mix of vehicles on the road? It's our strategy as we diversify our product portfolio, also to diversify our geographic reach. That is incredibly important to us. We need to go coastal.
California is by far the king of small cars. Over 30 percent of their sales are small cars. When we look at small cars, midsized [cars,] and small utilities, that's over 50 percent of the market.
Fiesta and Focus are global, and they have much more of a European design. That's one of the reasons though that they're resonating so well on the coasts.
We'll be looking at the coasts for midsized with the Fusion, particularly for California. It is our initiative to conquest from [Toyota] Camry and [Honda] Accord with Fusion on the coasts.
The C-Max also allows us to take advantage of a global product platform and still differentiate it, particularly in California, [by having] a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid.
With the Escape, we're looking to again push that on the coasts. The New York area is biggest utility market in the country; [it] marks about 11 percent of all utilities sold. Nothing else even comes close to that and that mix has really started to lean toward small utilities. That's probably because of the congestion. You've got such tight quarters here, and higher gas prices than other places. So it's critical that that new Escape performs here in the Northeast.
Will millenials and baby boomers also see eye-to-eye on alternative powertrains, such as electric cars? Right now the green vehicles are pretty much a boomer phenomenon, because it's very expensive. I mean, they both want fuel economy. But if you look at electric vehicle, you've got to have some disposable income to make those things happen.
I think the millenials are very environmentally-conscious; I do think they will adopt some of these things. And over time one would expect as volume continues to increase, the costs will come down. Will we see more diesel engines coming to the U.S. to boost fuel efficiency? The diesel for us has a big place for us in [the] Super Duty [pickup]. We'll be doing more with Ecoboost [turbocharged, direct-injection gasoline engines]. From a customer perspective, clean diesel isn't cheap. We think we can capture a lot of what people are looking for with a diesel, in terms of efficiency and torque, with Ecoboost, while leaving the things that aren't so great about diesel, like the price, in Europe. | <urn:uuid:1760a25b-1ed6-4f5d-9279-bb99b967181e> | CC-MAIN-2014-10 | http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2012/04/5-questions-with-ford-sales-analyst-erich-merkle-on-car-trends/index.htm | 2014-03-11T00:04:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-10/segments/1394011062835/warc/CC-MAIN-20140305091742-00035-ip-10-183-142-35.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.982183 | 1,473 |

ASHEVILLE, N.C. - John Shulman may have coached his last basketball game for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
The decision is up to Shulman and newly named UTC chancellor Steve Angle, according to interim athletic director Laura Herron.
"I will be meeting with our new chancellor and talking with him this week, and reviewing our situation to see what direction he wants to go in," Herron said. "It's up to the new chancellor on what direction we take."
She said AD interviews are expected to begin in early April.
Shulman, 46, has one year left on his $138,000-per-year contract with the school after guiding the Mocs to a 145-146 record and two NCAA tournament appearances in nine seasons. He said he would not want to be a lame-duck coach like former football coach Rodney Allison, who coached the full term of his contract.
"It would not be a lot of fun," Shulman said after the Mocs lost in the first round of Southern Conference tournament Friday, 87-81 to UNC Greensboro. "If you really want my honest answer, no. Why would anybody feel comfortable with that?"
But it's a possibility if the university does not buy out the final year and Shulman does not resign.
"John has done what he needs to do," Herron said Saturday. "He's a great person. It's just hard to guess at this juncture what will happen."
The Mocs went 13-19 this season. They began the year with four scholarship freshmen in the rotation, had their best guard and senior leader in Dontay Hampton for less than four games, lost two wings to injuries for more than six weeks and had a wing player running the point for most of the season.
The team won two more games and three more SoCon games than the squad of seniors that went winless on the road last year.
"I'm proud to have coached and excited to watch them develop because they have a chance to be really good," Shulman said of this year's Mocs. "I've got a responsibility to these kids, no matter what happens. I have to make sure these young kids do what they're supposed to."
Former athletic director Rick Hart, now at Southern Methodist University, extended Shulman's contract to May 31, 2014, after UTC won the SoCon tournament in 2009. About two years later, Hart instructed Shulman to recruit only high school players instead of continuing to bring in junior college players.
"When we did this, I told Rick I thought it was going to be a two-year dip," Shulman said. "Look at what we've done. It's been a two-year dip. I think we can come out of it. I knew on the front end that it was going to happen, and it hasn't been a lot of fun going through it. We're in uncharted water.
"It's never been done at Chattanooga, and I don't know where this takes us."
This was the first time since UTC joined the Division I ranks in the 1977-78 season that the Mocs did not have a juco transfer on the roster.
"You ever felt sometimes that you're handcuffed?" Shulman said. "We feel handcuffed. It's been very difficult without junior college players, but that doesn't mean you can't get it done."
Herron said the decision was necessary to improve the program's academic performance rate. She said men's basketball scored a perfect 1,000 for the fall semester.
"Academically, things are going well there," she said. "Athletically, we've got really talented student-athletes, and we need to build on that."
The loss Friday was the Mocs' third straight first-round exit from the SoCon tournament and the seventh time ever a UTC men's team lost its first game of the tournament.
"There's a reason why this was never done," Shulman said. "I happened to be the guy to steer the ship during this time. When we were going the other direction, I don't remember first-round exits.
"As they get older, [the current Mocs] are going to get a lot better."
They may learn by watching. Shulman had the team watch the Lady Mocs and then watch the Furman-Appalachian State men's quarterfinal Saturday. He said he may have the team watch the SoCon championship game Monday at his house.
"My job isn't to worry about me," Shulman said. "My job is to worry about these kids." | <urn:uuid:23b6990a-b37f-441d-a676-3572102230c0> | CC-MAIN-2016-30 | http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/sports/college/story/2013/mar/10/shulman-doesnt-want-to-be-lame-duck/102037/ | 2016-07-28T17:06:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-30/segments/1469257828286.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20160723071028-00062-ip-10-185-27-174.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.989875 | 979 |
This week our cub scouts needed to pass off a requirement to talk to an adult about how they use information in their job. We could have just had them talk to me, but we thought it might be cool to talk to some other people. I talked to some of our neighbors and asked them if we could drop by their houses and interview them. The agreed, because we have great neighbors.
When the night came our scouts were awesome. They were respectful, and they listened quietly. They even started to ask some good questions. But I think my wife and I got more out of it than the boys did. We could have stayed much, much longer finding out everything we could.
Our first stop was a couple. He works for the Forest Service, and she is CFO for a local heating and air company. She works at home, and showed us her telecommuting setup. He is a civil engineer, but we learned that Forest Service personnel can take on dual roles at the organization. While much of the year he manages projects building roads on Forest Service lands, during fire season he becomes a fire camp coordinator, tasked with setting up and operating base camps for fire fighters.
Somehow that doesn’t surprise me, as cool as it is. This guy looks like a Marlboro Man who never took up the habit. He’s the guy I wrote about some time ago who cut down our trees for us, and dropped them within inches of where he wanted them. He’s also the guy I regularly borrow tools from when mine are just too wimpy.
Our third neighbor we visited is a shipping and receiving manager for a small national sporting goods chain, keeping their central distribution warehouse running efficiently. Not long out of high school he decided shipping and receiving was his thing, and worked his way from a school janitor to one of two guys keeping the warehouse operating twenty hours a day.
There is a story there I would have loved to explored further, but it would have been off topic and we were running out of time. What leads a person to decide that shipping and receiving is their calling? Not that there’s anything wrong with it–I’m just curious about the story behind that. It’s not a job you hear about a lot in any case, let alone someone specifically seeking it out.
Visiting our neighbors like that reminded me of Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood. It was always fun when he’d take us on a walk to visit one of his many cool neighbors and find out more about what they did for work. I always thought it was amazing how so many interesting people lived so close by. But the older I get the more I realize that it’s probably true. Everyone in our neighborhood, if we sat down and talked with them, would likely have interesting stories to tell us about their jobs, their lives, and their experiences.
I’ll have to continue this concept. With the cub scouts as an excuse we could get to know a lot of neighbors better! Not to mention learn about all the interesting things there are to do in the world. | <urn:uuid:9a8daeb3-e365-481d-935e-fbd96c05bcc9> | CC-MAIN-2018-09 | http://www.thomstratton.com/2013/02/these-are-the-people-in-your-neighborhood/ | 2018-02-21T07:30:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-09/segments/1518891813571.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20180221063956-20180221083956-00545.warc.gz | en | 0.990528 | 642 |

: : Right now my pre-teen boy is soaking in a seemingly endless stream of warm, steamy water. He will stay there until I force him to turn the water off. Every night the same problem.
"Hey man! What's happeing to the water, Dam it!"
My wife and I were rolling on the floor laughing our heads off. When he came out shivering, wearing a towel, he found us holding our stomaches, worn out from laughing so hard.
His showers take less time now.

Little Blue and Little Yellow

This book is about two colors that are best friends. One day Little Blue's mom went to the store and told Little Blue to stay home. But Little Blue went to look for his best friend, Little Yellow. They played hide and seek.
This book is also about mixing colors. Little Blue and Little Yellow hugged and hugged until they were both green.
I like this book because it teaches you about friendship. If you like mixing colors, you should read this book. Little Blue reminds me of myself because he is small and likes to play.

The azure western bluebird and noisy red-breasted nuthatch are among the most common and beloved birds on the Colorado Plateau. But, will they and others still live here as the Southwest’s climate warms and dries? Our national parks may be a deciding factor.
Bluebirds and nuthatches are the focus of a new project called Climate Watch. It’s been launched in response to National Audubon Society’s recent National Parks Climate Study. The report predicts how different species of birds will alter their behavior and distribution in the face of climate change.
According to the findings, colonizing species will outstrip those extirpated in more than 60 percent of the nation’s parks. That’s based on the expectation that some birds will shift their home ranges in response to changing temperature and precipitation. In some parks where climate may become unsuitable, current species could potentially be lost—or they may overwinter instead of migrating.
In our region, parks such as Canyonlands and Arches in Utah are expected to gain species, while others such as Grand Canyon are likely to suffer a net loss.
To test the accuracy of these predictions, the Climate Watch project will enlist citizen scientists this spring to assess the responses of bluebirds and nuthatches. And it will continue—once in spring and once in winter—with different species.
Audubon scientist Brooke Bateman says these surveys offer “a tangible and local way people can contribute to the knowledge needed for effective conservation in a changing climate, and their efforts are the only way we can do this project.”

I thought some people here might be interested in a little program I have
spent the last 45 minutes writing that benchmarks two very simple
backtracking NFAs against each other, as the subject suggests one
implemented with a switch statement the other with tables. The parsers count
line breaks - CRLF, LFCR and LFs and CRs on their own.
These are the resutls on my athlon XP on windows (xp):
F:\--->>gcc smtest.c -O3 -o smtest.exe && smtest

Switch parser reported 4000 breaks and executed in 12.257000 seconds.
Table parser reported 4000 breaks and executed in 13.197000 seconds.
Without optimization the table parser fared much worse:

Turning Texas blue is the white whale of Democratic political ambition. El Paso Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D) has garnered national headlines, enthusiasm and millions of dollars from Democrats around the country who want to see him unseat GOP Sen. Ted Cruz. While O'Rourke has far outraised Cruz, it's yet to be seen whether that national excitement will turn into votes in Texas. Despite Texas' changing demographics, which could benefit Democrats, Trump won the state by 9 points, a larger margin than in Ohio, Arizona or Georgia. Democrats could still make gains at the House level in the 7th, 23rd, 32nd and potentially the 21st and 31st districts. Of those, the 7th, in the Houston suburbs, is expected to be the tightest. Rep. John Culberson (R) is facing Democratic lawyer Lizzie Pannill Fletcher in a tight race. Gov. Greg Abbott (R) is also up for re-election but he's expected to defeat former Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez (D).

The money worries keeping start-up CEOs awake at night
VCs, angel investors, banks; finding investment as a new business can be tricky. Here’s how successful start-up founders got over their funding hurdles
If you find yourself worrying about having enough funding to keep your business afloat, then you’re among the majority of UK start-up and small business owners.
Research conducted by Startups.co.uk with business broadband and phone provider Plusnet found that a staggering 68% of small business owners are kept awake at night with concerns over funding and cashflow.
What’s more, 43% admitted that they had found it hard, or in some cases very hard, to source investment for their business. Given the range of alternative finance options now available to businesses in the UK and schemes like SEIS and EIS, this statistic is surprising.
Yet, the fact that start-up founders are finding it hard to source investment could largely be due to a lack of awareness or understanding of funding options. For example, 63% of small business owners said they feel ‘new’ sources of finance aren’t accessible to them.
From the research, it’s clear that funding is a core area where founders need help and advice. Ahead of the Plusnet Pioneers programme, we brought together a group of successful start-up entrepreneurs for a roundtable discussion to share the funding challenges and money worries they’ve faced, along with funding advice and insights.
You can read the biographies of our inspiring start-up founders here and read the full discussion – covering everything from VC and angel investment to crowdfunding – below:
Venture capital funding:
What source of finance have you found to be the least accessible and hardest to raise?
Tushar Agarwal, Hubble:
“We’ve been in the position [of worrying that our funding runway was going to run out]. We were going through this amazing story of having VC financing and it not actually being that difficult – it felt way too good to be true. It ended up being way too good to be true.
“You’re depending on that money coming through. When you know you can’t do payroll at the end of the month, it’s probably one of the worst feelings that you can ever have in your life as you know you’ve got so many people depending on you.”
Emily Forbes, Seenit:
“We always talk to VCs and every time we end up raising from angels. I think what’s bad in the industry is people see that as a failure – that you can’t raise from VCs therefore you can’t get backing. That’s not true.
“We’ve had VC offers and had terms we didn’t like. We had strategic conversations where we noticed that what they were trying to do was creep up to 51%. If we had let them in at this point, we’d get stung in the next round and the one after. We realised that as we were revenue generating, we could raise angel money and [raise it] a hell of a lot quicker.
“I think VCs have so much of a stereotype, I don’t think people look at seed rounds in the same respect.”
Can you expand on your experience of dealing with VCs?
Nelson Sivalingam, Hownow/Wonderush:
“Raising venture money changes how you run your business. It’s not a natural step, you know you’ve got to really weigh it up. It changes how you manage your team, how you manage your trajectory.
“There’s also an over emphasis on valuation as a topic. When the valuation conversation comes too early with your start-up, it could go wrong. You want [the VC] to buy in and connect and not talk about price.
“What works for us now is that we put that conversation to the side. If the [VC] asks us what the valuation is then we will say ‘We’re talking to a few people and still deciding but, if all else is okay, are you in?’ And once someone buys in, you can then go to someone else and say ‘so-and-so has bought in, we’re agreeing price, are you interested?’ It gives you a bit more leverage. Whereas starting the conversation with the valuation topic steers you away from what you want to talk about.”
“It’s really difficult because VCs – or in fact any investors – ask ‘How much are you raising and what’s your valuation?’ before they even ask what company you’re from.”
“Our valuation doubled, halved and then quadrupled again in the space of four weeks or something like that. As a former investment banker who used to do company valuations for a living, I found it totally ridiculous.
“The interesting thing about venture capital is that you assume they’re there to take big risky bets, but I’ve often found some VCs are quite risk averse.”
What have you learnt from the fundraising process?
“We’ve raised angel money both times. Each round that we’ve done, you need to talk to so many angels. Conversations about raising [finance] aren’t when you’re raising, they are 24/7 – it is the whole time.
“If you do get angels involved, what I’ve learnt from the second round is to get these angels to introduce you to other people. If a friend of theirs has invested, the likelihood is they’re like ‘Oh, if they’re in, I’m in’. If you do contact angels cold, it’s quite exhausting.
“Also in terms of the amount you’re going to raise, if you need to raise £500,000, go out to the market – this is what I’ve done anyway just for me – with £300,000 or £400,000 and then you’re oversubscribed. You want to be oversubscribed, you want the momentum and the story.”
Daniel van Binsbergen, Lexoo:
“Our last raise was £850,000 from institutional and angel investors. I was raising it over the summer because, before then, my numbers weren’t where they needed to be to raise it. Yet I also knew I was going to run out of money by the end of the summer.
“There was one moment where we had £2,000 left in the company account so I stopped all marketing spend, everything. We got through it but it was still the most stressful week of my life and I didn’t know how we were going to get over it.
“One thing I would recommend is listening to rap music on your way to the [investor] meeting. It really pumps you up!”
When you started, what source of finance did you consider first?
Gem Misa, Cauli Rice:
“It took us three years to develop the technology [for Cauli Rice] and because it was a completely new and unique manufacturing process that we developed, there was no manufacturer that was willing to manufacture for us or one that had an existing cauliflower rice line.
“We had to build the line so that’s when we started looking for funding. At the time we started approaching banks for loans, but because we didn’t have any big assets to guarantee against loans we kept getting turned down. I was already following crowdfunding platform Kickstarter in the States at this time and thinking and going ‘Oh gosh I wish there was someone here doing that’.
“The irony is that the only time you get bank loans is when you don’t need the money [and you’re more established], it’s like they think ‘Oh you’ve done well, now here’s some money’.”
What is your view on funding alternatives? Do they raise any complexities?
“We went through crowdfunding three times. I remember we won at the Startups Awards at the same time Crowdcube did when they were just starting, and that’s how we found out that crowdfunding in the UK had started.
“The benefits of [crowdfunding] are you get brand ambassadors and that’s a big plus because they help spread the word about your product – so it’s not just funding you get, but a really strong grass roots channel to market your product through as well.
“For us, it helped that we were the first cauli rice brand in the world and we have a global patent. We’re actually looking at doing a fourth round now for our US launch.”
Andy Logan, Vape Emporium:
“We’ve been raising through Seedrs and they’ve been fantastic actually. There were lots of tips and tricks that I didn’t realise about crowdfunding:
- You’ve got to have a slick video so we’ve had to get professional people in to do this video.
- Another key point is you want to tee up a minimum of 30% of the funding you want to receive from [crowdfunding] So you contact say friends, family, suppliers etc. so as soon as [the round] goes live they start funnelling it in and then it starts picking up.
- The other thing is forecasting. It kind of opens your mind; even detailed things like; we’re going to have to get someone in to kit out and decorate our new stores, office and warehouse – as we’re planning new facilities, once we get the raise. You’re having to think three years in the future about tiny details. It’s hard.”
“I reckon there are so many learnings from crowdfunding that can be applied to raising funding from VCs and investors – like having an epic video for your pitch.”
What are the challenges if you don’t source external investment for your business?
Luke Barlow, Netduma:
“[We’re bootstrapped] and I think we’re very fortunate. We’re a lean company so not having cash has made us quite savvy.
“Whereas before, it was the issue of how we market on no budget that kept me awake, now it’s what to do next as we’ve got those marketing channels working and we’ve got more cash in.
“I know we’ll need investment one day.”
Mike Bandar, Turn Partners:
“I’ve always been keen not to speculatively raise and bootstrap as far as we can.
“About a year ago, the company was doing well and we went on a staff trip to Mexico. We’d been spending aggressively for growth and investing into a new business knowing we had a grant arriving soon. While we were out there, I got a call from my accountant who said ‘We forgot to tell you but you’ve got to pay your corporate tax and there was a delay on a grant we were expecting’.
“It all came to a head when I was in this café in Mexico and I had this moment where I was like ‘We’ve ran out of money and we’re in Mexico, what am I doing?’
“It was a great lesson for us because it has enabled us to have razor visibility on our finances now. When we got the grant through we became more conservative [with our spending]. At one point, we were holding six figures in our bank because I was scared but now we make our money work for us.
“The big point is not actually where you get your money from but how [money] works for your business and what you do with it.”
What have you learnt from raising finance that you think new business owners should understand?
Pip Murray, Pip & Nut:
“Once you know you’ve got profit, you can raise money from debt financing, invoice financing or other routes. It’s about recognising that, at different stages in your company, you don’t need to rush to raise money.
“I think not enough businesses – especially product businesses – look at their supply chain and realise they can get a credit line with their manufacturer. If you can get 60-day payment terms with no credit line, they’re going to bankroll you for quite a long time.
“It’s the same with banks; they don’t advertise the other products they do enough. Like some banks can buy the product from your factory and then extend your payment terms.”
“It’s also the mentality with which you approach fundraising. Because starting a business is so hard, you sometimes approach fundraising as way of begging for charitable donations, but that’s not the truth. You’re basically finding someone to give them an opportunity to make more money in the future. The power lies on your side.”
The funding landscape:
How easy it to raise finance as a start-up business in the current climate?
“There are these amazing stories out there where entrepreneurs don’t even look for funding and they just get it.
“The analogy I use for it is that you’ll always have a Beyoncé and a Jagger and those guys will always be incredible but there’s always a long tail of musicians who have successful careers too. I think with entrepreneurs we have the same thing.
“We have the superstars, like Zuckerberg and the Google founders, and they will have those incredible founding stories – some of them are true, some are made up – [as well as a long tail of successful smaller businesses].
“I think [finding investment] as a start-up is always hard because you’re trying to bring something new to the market and getting people to understand why it’ll be valuable.”
