Identifying and targeting high-scoring players is always the goal of a fantasy football player. Possessing the ability to properly assess a team’s situation — including which teammates may work in unison as a pair — can create a marginal difference on a weekly basis but ultimately compounds by season's end. Doubling up on points by way of a stack — such as a quarterback and a tight end — is one of the more underrated and underutilized factors when drafting. Below are some of the most intriguing quarterback and tight end stacks to target in 2020 fantasy football leagues. The most expensive no-brainer options won’t be included on this list.
All average draft position (ADP) info is sourced from BestBall10s drafts dating back to the beginning of July.

Ryan Tannehill (149.67 ADP) + Jonnu Smith (131.67 ADP)
Tannehill was a revelation for the Tennessee Titans in every way last season. In Weeks 6-17 — when Tannehill was the starter — he ranked fourth in quarterback scoring (234.4 points) and second in points per dropback (0.70) among all quarterbacks. Over that same timeframe, Tannehill ranked 11th in passing yards, third in passing touchdowns, first in yards per attempt (YPA) and third in average depth of target (aDOT) among all quarterbacks with 100-plus pass attempts.
Tannehill’s intrigue doesn’t end there; he's also a threat on the ground, as his 187 rushing yards ranked 10th and his four touchdowns ranked third among all quarterbacks. It’s probably fair to expect a level of regression for both Tannehill and the Titans’ offense as a whole, mostly because his 2019 performance was a career outlier. Tannehill’s current QB20 ADP is intriguing, mostly because the offense the Titans deployed in 2019 proved to be well-suited for his skill set, and the team has surrounded him with a bevy of weapons who produced after the catch.
One of those weapons is the aforementioned Smith. Smith’s current TE17 price tag feels like absolute thievery because he is simply way too productive and talented to be going so low in drafts. Smith was otherworldly in his 2019 production, as evidenced below.
Jonnu Smith statistics and rankings (min. 25 targets) | 2019
|Yards after the catch||282 (9th)|
|Yards after contact||165 (5th)|
|Missed tackles forced||14 (3rd)|
|Explosive pass plays (15-plus yards downfield)||12 (13th)|
|Receiving yards per reception||12.5 (8th)|
|YAC per reception||8.1 (2nd)|
|Yards per route run||1.83 (8th)|
Smith was fairly productive in the weeks in which he and Tannehill shared the field (6-17), as he ranked 15th among tight ends in scoring (89.8 points). Despite that decent rank, Smith simply wasn’t used often enough in the Titans’ offense, as his 44 targets ranked 31st among all tight ends. The positive in this situation is Delanie Walker‘s departure — his release frees up another 30 targets. Walker accumulated that workload in only seven games, which should provide enough hope for an increased target share for Smith moving forward.
PFF’s fantasy projections expect the duo to produce — Tannehill is currently ranked as the QB11 and Smith comes in at the TE15 spot. Their schedules won’t make it easy, though. PFF’s strength of schedule (SoS) metric ranks the Titans’ quarterback schedule as the 22nd-easiest and the tight end schedule as the 29th-easiest in 2020.

Michelle Mankin is the author of the Black Cat Records series of novels. Romance with subtext. Reimagining classic stories with sexy rock stars and thought provoking issues. For many years she worked in the insurance industry as an underwriter. Somehow, the boredom didn't kill her but the hours and hours of looking at facts and figures provided ample time for her mind to wander. Black Cat Records in Vancouver provides the central backdrop for all of Michelle’s current novels. Love Evolution, Love Revolution, and Love Resolution are a Brutal Strength centered trilogy, combining the plot underpinnings of Shakespeare with the drama, excitement, and indisputable sexiness of the rock 'n roll industry. Things take a bit of an edgier, once upon a time turn with the Tempest series. These pierced, tatted, and troubled Seattle rockers are young and on the cusp of making it big, but with serious obstacles to overcome that may prevent them from ever getting there. When Michelle is not prowling the streets of her Texas town listening to her rock music much too loud, she is putting her daydreams down on paper or traveling the world with her family and friends, sometimes for real, and sometimes just for pretend as she takes the children to school and back.

After I told you how Superdry represents a global phenomenon with loyal fans of an ever expanding range, when we saw that Trackster Winter Hood fleece, now it’s time for another item. The Camo Dual Zip Arctic Cagoule is a jacket to live the city to the fullest.
Get equipped for harsh weather conditions with a versatile item, ready to be opened with its three zippers on the front. This two tone camouflage and black colorway is as urban as it gets and so are the little features that make this a superior jacket. I’m talking about the rubber hole and the loop to keep earphones in place, zippers on any pocket to keep your things in place and an elastic cord at the waist that you can pull to give the hem your ideal fit.
As I said at the beginning Superdry fans are loyal and this turns into reality one of the best aspects that a brand wishes to reach: a range that can offer you way more than other brands. In these pictures Elena S is holding a Steel Sports bottle, the much talked about accessory for the ultimate sports training.

Update: 4/11/2012 6:30 P.M.
It's nearly half-over...and so far, the forest fire season in West Virginia has been a busy one.
The Division of Forestry says there have been more than 20 forest and brush fires since the first of the year in Wood and surrounding counties.
The mild winter, coupled with windy conditions and leaves which dry out after they form on trees.
"With no snow pack, there was nothing to break down the underbrush and the leaves from last fall. So now, as the wind blows, as it has for the last couple of days, it dries out considerably. Once we get a small fire, it doesn't take long to turn into a big one."
That overnight fire was reported in the Flint Ridge area in Wirt County.
Few details are known, but we're told it burned a big part of a hillside.
Spring doesn't officially begin for a few more weeks, but March first is the official start of the spring fire season.
This year could be an active one, thanks to the mild winter we've had so far, and the resulting warm weather and recent gusty winds.
While most of the fires we hear about are in rural areas, the city of Parkersburg also has some safeguards in place to prevent brush fires from happening in the city limits.
"We give out a burn permit, and we observe the site before we give out the permit," says city fire inspector Tim Flinn. "We ask that there be a 100-foot clearance from any structures, power lines or vehicles. And you should have a water hose or extinguishing system next to you when you're burning."
The West Virginia Division of Forestry says outdoor burning is prohibited between the hours of 7 A.M. and 5 P.M. Ohio's laws bar open debris fires from 6 A.M. to 6 P.M.
For some suggestions about safe burning, go to the "hot button" on our homepage. | <urn:uuid:7545f414-e8d9-4e8a-8e66-2b5a05d6de31> | CC-MAIN-2015-18 | http://www.thenewscenter.tv/station/headlines/Fire_Season_Begins_141112883.html | 2015-04-27T04:03:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-18/segments/1429246657041.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20150417045737-00120-ip-10-235-10-82.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.960535 | 416 |
Essie Mae Moody, who became an activist and author of one of the most powerful autobiographies written during the civil rights movement, was born on 15 September 1940 in Wilkerson County, Mississippi. Moody survived poverty, racism, and patriarchy—problems that only accelerated her eagerness for the freedom and civil rights of African Americans. Her parents were sharecroppers on a white-owned plantation, and at age nine she went to work for white women to help support her siblings. She began calling herself Anne as a teenager, attended Natchez Junior College for a time, and then earned a bachelor’s degree from Tougaloo College in 1964. At Tougaloo she became a member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and an organizer and fundraiser for the Congress of Racial Equality. She participated in a sit-in at Woolworth’s cafeteria in Jackson, where she and her coworkers were abused by white students for almost three hours until the Tougaloo president and others arrived. Other activities led her to jail.
After graduation, she spent a year coordinating a civil rights project at Cornell University. In 1967 she married Austin Straus. The couple had a son, Sascha, before divorcing.
By 1967 Moody set aside activism in favor of writing, publishing her autobiography, Coming of Age in Mississippi the following year. She described how she and her white playmates were forced to sit separately at a movie theater, and later how one of her white employers told her to come into the house through the back door. The 1955 murder of fourteen-year old Emmett Till shocked her: “I hated the white men who murdered Emmett Till and I hated all the other whites who were responsible for the countless murders” she had learned about or “vaguely remembered from childhood. But I also hated Negroes. I hated them for not standing up and doing something about the murders.” She wrote about her admiration of the resilience and resolve of C. O. Chinn and other activists in Canton but also described the exhaustion and frustrations of day-to-day activism. Moody increasingly wondered about the direction the civil rights movement was taking. She grew tired after the deaths of Medgar Evers, the Birmingham church bombing victims, and Pres. John F. Kennedy. She felt isolated on a bus heading toward Washington, D.C., listening to her coworkers sing “We Shall Overcome.” The autobiography ends with her skepticism about the movement. Moody retired from activism because she felt that nothing seemed to change.
She won a German Academic Exchange Service grant in 1972 and spent a year in Berlin as an artist. She received the silver medal from Mademoiselle magazine for her story “New Hopes for the Seventies” and published an anthology, Mr. Death: Four Stories, in 1975. Over the next two decades, she granted no interviews and held a series of nonwriting jobs, including a position as an antipoverty counselor in New York City. She returned to Mississippi in the early 1990s and died there on 5 February 2015 after developing dementia. Her autobiography remains one of the most frequently taught books on the civil rights movement, in part because it dramatizes the events from the perspective of a particularly sensitive young person engaged in the act of interpreting those events.
Recent efforts to honor her legacy in her hometown of Centreville have included Anne Moody Day, a street sign named for the activist, and a new Anne Moody History Project.

On my mother’s side, there are few of us left. She is gone, as are her three siblings and parents. One cousin is out there somewhere, but I have not seen him since the 1970s. My sister and I, plus Cousin Pat and her brother are about it.
Pat’s son died in an auto accident last year. She had never had any major health issues, but after this happened, she started to have various ailments and treatments. In October, she was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s condition). I’ve only read about it a little. It is one of those conditions that can be diagnosed because it’s not anything else that has been tested for in a person. There is no specific test for ALS. The body fails while the mind is still alert.
In the course of two months, she has flown downhill. We do tend to overachieve, but I wish she had not done so with ALS. Articles gave expected life span as 3-5 years. She is in her third month and has been in ICU for several weeks now on a ventilator.
Her husband calls me so I can Facetime with her. She is able to nod for “yes” and “no,” and she can still flip me her third finger. I try to make her laugh. She is feisty and always enjoyed a glass or two or three of wine and would curse and make me laugh whenever we spent time together.
We became closer when I retired in 2006. She is ten years older than I, and she and her husband went to my nephew’s wedding this past May in North Carolina. She was having trouble walking even then, but no one knew what was going on.
She has been hooked up on a ventilator the entire time she has been in ICU. It is so hard to see her there. I know I always say that we all have expiration dates, and it’s true, but I am not ready to see Pat reach hers.
Today, she was able to breathe on her own for almost 90 minutes before they had to reinsert the ventilator. She had pneumonia, and they drained fluid from her lungs. Her husband told me, when he was out of earshot, that they (including her) had decided that the next time the ventilator is removed, if she can’t breathe on her own, they will not reinsert the ventilator. I asked if this meant that she would suffocate, and he said it did. I asked if they would please dope her up so she wouldn’t know what was happening.
I have lost many family members and a few friends. It is never easy, even when I know it might be for the best. She would not want to live this way.
Someone gave her a pink teddy bear. She named it Jann, after me. I joked and said it was because I was a Bar-bear (Barber), but it made me want to cry.
I know everyone has problems. Everyone has sorrow. Everyone has joy. I am just putting it out here because I don’t know where else to leave it.
Hug the people you love. You just never know. | <urn:uuid:f4d08230-f5cd-484b-8b5c-8498fe6bd662> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://mathcat345.wordpress.com/ | 2018-06-24T23:52:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267867304.92/warc/CC-MAIN-20180624234721-20180625014721-00219.warc.gz | en | 0.993829 | 685 |

The k-Space SpectR metrology tool provides absolute spectral reflectance measurements for in-line and in situ deposition applications such as Sputtering, MBE and MOCVD applications. This non-contact, non-invasive, real-time, wafer and film reflectance monitor is used for process monitoring and process control for semi-transparent thin-films. The software is complete with film thickness monitoring for single-layer and multi-layer (film-stack) films from the acquired reflectance spectra. Custom spectral features such as reflectance minima, maxima, inflection points, or baseline scatter level, over a user defined wavelength range of interest, are easily measured. When monitored as a function of time during deposition, the film growth rate can also be determined.

Each kSA Spectral Reflectance system is delivered as a turn-key system, equipped with the following:
- Integrated spectrometer and control electronics, packaged in a 3U 19” rack unit,
- Custom optics head for your growth reactor, including light source and collection optics,
- All necessary control cables and optical fibers,
- PC-based Windows 10 controller,
- kSA Spectral Reflectance software and license, as well as an additional desktop license for post-acquisition analysis.
Optical Head Configuration:
The kSA Spectral Reflectance mounting configuration varies based on the particular chamber or application. Since this is a reflection based measurement, the measurement is completed at normal incidence or at small specular angles. If the measurement is to be taken through a viewport at normal incidence, an angled viewport is required. Standard MBE mounting accommodates both 2.75” CF and 4.5” CF flanges. MOCVD mounting typically requires fiber coupling of both the light source and detector due to the small optical apertures. For typical MOCVD path lengths, a clear aperture of at least 3mm in diameter is required. For in-line based measurements, the measurement is completed at normal incidence or at small specular angles. To confirm the best optical head configuration for your chamber or application, please contact k-Space for more information.

By Joe Carroll and Michio Nakayama - May 12, 2011 11:27 AM ET
Tokyo Electric Power Co. said one of the reactor cores at its stricken Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear plant is more seriously damaged than previously thought, setting back the utility’s plan to resolve the crisis.
Fuel rods in the core of the No. 1 reactor are fully exposed, with the water level 1 meter (3.3 feet) below the base of the fuel assembly, Junichi Matsumoto, a general manager at the utility known as Tepco, told reporters at a briefing in Tokyo. Melted fuel has dropped to the bottom of the pressure vessel and is still being cooled, Matsumoto said. | <urn:uuid:15f8d973-a802-4294-a7b2-6f94e7d99b14> | CC-MAIN-2015-11 | http://www.dharmawheel.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=4109&start=0 | 2015-03-04T15:33:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-11/segments/1424936463606.79/warc/CC-MAIN-20150226074103-00197-ip-10-28-5-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.927919 | 202 |
With the Mahindra XUV300 launch less than 3 weeks away, the company has begun showcasing its compact SUV at malls. This weekend the vehicle’s already made its debut at Sujana Mall in Hyderabad, and Seasons Mall in Pune.
Mahindra XUV300 orderbooks were opened earlier in January. Being introduced as a sub 4-metre compact SUV, the car sits on the longest wheelbase in its segment. This is because the vehicle is based on Ssangyong Tivoli, and while the wheelbase is retained, vehicle dimensions have been reduced to fit in the sub 4-metre category.
Mahindra officials who were present at the venue, did not reveal engine details. But they did confirm that petrol 1.2L engine will deliver 200 Nm, and diesel 1.5L will deliver 300 Nm engine. Power output is not known at present but is likely to be 125 hp. Both engines will be mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. No automatic or AMT is on offer as of now.
On the safety front, 7 Airbags are on offer with top variant. Front Parking Sensors, ABS with EBD are also offered. Dual-Zone Fully Automatic Climate Control has been mentioned. Mahindra XUV300 will be available in 3 variants – W4, W6 and W8, and W8 (O) as an option. Standard features include ABS, Disc Brakes on all four wheels, 6 Speed Transmission, LED tail lamps, and all 4 Power windows.
Mahindra officials confirmed that launch price of XUV300 compact SUV will range from Rs 8 lakhs to Rs 12 lakhs ex-sh. The XUV300 on display, features silver alloy wheels, front chrome grille, projector headlamps with LED DRLs, fog lamps and ORVMs with integrated turn signals.
The dual-tone front bumper ends in a silver scuff plate. The air dam has 4 horizontal chrome bands. There’s also an electric sunroof. There’s a convenient storage slot above the glove box. Rear seats can be folded down to increase the storage deck. Colour options on offer are red, white, silver, aquamarine, black, and orange. Being Mahindra, one can expect a multitude of chrome add-ons. Below is the detailed photo gallery of new Mahindra XUV300. | <urn:uuid:857db78b-4c70-4151-822b-7cc0ee65370f> | CC-MAIN-2023-06 | https://www.rushlane.com/mahindra-xuv300-public-debut-video-12295098.html | 2023-01-26T22:20:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-06/segments/1674764494826.88/warc/CC-MAIN-20230126210844-20230127000844-00149.warc.gz | en | 0.948402 | 501 |

Can't you do this for free...? Burn an audio CD, and then rip it. It's like 3 mouse clicks total (and a chunk of time). Or is this just an automated method (in which case, it's basically a wrapper for a really simple script)?
And, that said, this is obviously a lossy conversion. User beware, your music won't sound as good (however minorly different it may be).
Unless someone knows that this is doing something fundamentally different?

A hidden island in a corner of Lake Titicaca, Ticonata is one of the greener islands on the lake. It has a warm microclimate that allows lush green grass to grow, crops to thrive, and many birds to be spied. In 2004 the Quechua-speaking natives of this island were nearly gone—only two families remained on the island—but a community-based project began to teach locals how to use their resources for travel tourism. Today more than a dozen families have returned and ancient island practices are being taught to younger generations. Only a small number of visitors are allowed at a time and the focus of a trip is to help families farm and fish while learning the ancient traditions of the Ticonatas.
It's typically a two-day trip that starts by visiting the floating islands, then the Capachica Peninsula and Llachon, where you can hike through an original pre-Inca path or kayak in the lake. Following a picnic lunch, you head to Ticonata eco-village where you overnight in thatched-roof
homes. After helping families farm or fish, you help prepare dinner, followed by a bonfire and native dances. In the morning you'll head two hours to Amantani Island by rustic sailboats and then back to Puno by late afternoon. Most visits need to be arranged by Edgar Adventures. A group tour is easier to book, but a private tour is an option (though expensive) as is volunteering on the island for several days. | <urn:uuid:13a14090-dbab-4d2f-9e8f-f2da9a1892f6> | CC-MAIN-2015-27 | http://www.fodors.com/world/south-america/peru/the-southern-andes-and-lake-titicaca/things-to-do/sights/reviews/ticonata-island-444906/ | 2015-07-04T21:00:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-27/segments/1435375096944.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20150627031816-00071-ip-10-179-60-89.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.957717 | 313 |
Oh my gawd!!!!! I got the sh*t scared out of me today. Okay, so I was talking my dog for a walk and I just happened to look into a field behind the woods about a mile down from my house. I saw something black out of the corner of my eye. I looked and saw a BEAR!!!!!! And here's me It actually saw my dog and me too! It stood on its hind legs for a few seconds, then made it's way back into the woods. I was SOOOOO scared. My dog didn't bark, thank goodness, but what really scared me was that it stood up on its hind legs when it saw us. I'm guessing (hopefully) it was trying to catch our scent. I was so scared I couldn't move, which is good I guess, because I didn't run, which apparently kicks them into hunt mode (don't wanna do that...) After I saw it went back into the woods, I took off, making sure it wasn't following me. I took out my cell and called my parents, and told them the story(I always bring my cell on a walk just in case) while I was jogging, and dragging my poor puppy behind me. There's an image for ya. And meanwhile, I pass this lady who's out in her yard, and she looks at me like I'm nuts. It was quite the adventure anyway. So you see, ladies and gentlemen, that's what happens when you live in the middle of nowhere, in hick town. | <urn:uuid:2162d273-4ef1-4e32-aca7-abb2e8d10b5f> | CC-MAIN-2016-44 | http://forum.purseblog.com/threads/this-is-a-result-of-living-in-the-middle-of-nowhere.201375/ | 2016-10-26T10:17:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-44/segments/1476988720845.92/warc/CC-MAIN-20161020183840-00527-ip-10-171-6-4.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.994178 | 317 |
It is the ideal system for situational awareness on moving platforms like tanks or armored vehicles, but is also a valuable pair of eyes to secure a perimeter around vehicles, vessels and assets, or for complete close to medium range surveillance.
Israel (PRWEB UK) 14 June 2014
A new real-time spherical vision system for defense and homeland security that produces and records spherical movies over an area covering 360⁰ is to be launched by Scopustech, a pioneer in 360-degree technology, at the leading French defense and security exhibition, Eurosatory, in Paris from June 16 to 20, in Hall 6 Stand D 652.
“360in1 is the name of our line of spherical vision systems. Our aim was to create the next generation of 360-degree vision systems that would be highly versatile, reliable and cost-efficient while offering top performance such as low latency rendering, simultaneous recording, 24/7 operation, highest image quality,” said Ahim Kandler, Head of Business Development.
“What is absolutely unique about the system is its capability to work with either a visual or an infrared imager or even a combination of both day and thermal imaging at very high panoramic frame rates and resolution.”
The 360in1 Spherical Vision System has a flexible architecture and is built on three core modules - image generation, image processing and image rendering - to deliver an output that can be individually controlled (e.g., view angle, size, zoom, recording, pause, resume) by different users. Spherical vision can be displayed using individual monitors, multiple monitors, video walls, virtual reality headsets, or through easy integration with command and control (C2) systems.
“It is the ideal system for situational awareness on moving platforms like tanks or armored vehicles, but is also a valuable pair of eyes to secure a perimeter around vehicles, vessels and assets, or for complete close to medium range surveillance.”
Having successfully passed the development stage in 1Q 2014, the 360in1 Spherical Vision System has already attracted the interest of military users, institutions, integrators and security forces in a number of countries.
“We have fine-tuned the mechanics, optics, hardware and algorithms to create undistorted, precise spherical high-definition movies in real time – there is virtually no delay,” Kandler said.
Spherical vision is created using our Rotating Image Generation method. The camera system rotates at high speed and captures numerous images from different angles per rotation. Smart algorithms are used to combine a huge database of still images into an undistorted spherical movie - with a horizontal FOV of 360° and a vertical FOV of up to 70°.
360in1 systems are affordable, compact, lightweight, and energy efficient, with a small footprint. It has potential applications in defense, homeland security, law enforcement and airport security. With the ability to operate continuously, 24/7, on moving and stationary platforms, it can be installed on armored vehicles, offshore patrol vessels, towers, offshore platforms, airships, helicopters, and unmanned vehicles.
Scopustech is located in Israel and was founded in 1998 by Kibbutz Maayan Zvi to manufacture innovative electro-optical components and systems, and was home to successful products, such as periscopes and sighting systems. With its production systems certified for ISO 9001-2008, it counts on proven know-how and extensive multi-disciplinary skills in the design, engineering and high-precision manufacturing of high-precision optical products, such as light guides and optical prisms. In its 360in1 business unit, Scopustech pioneers high-end spherical vision technology with the 360in1 line of Spherical Vision Systems for perimeter and maritime surveillance, robotics, and situational awareness, which produce full or partly spherical vision in real-time.

But exposure notifications only work if you and the people around you turn them on. Yes, you!
There’s early evidence this anonymous smartphone technology works — but so far isn’t helping very many Americans. In August, I wrote about the first of these state-sponsored alerts, Virginia’s Covidwise app. In the three months since, only 488 people have used the state’s app to send alerts about a positive diagnosis to others.
The alerts use software built by Apple and Google into iPhones and Android devices to detect when people (or the phones they’re holding) get into close contact with each other. That might sound like a privacy invasion, but they figured out how to track encounters between people in a way that’s anonymous — and doesn’t store your location — by using the Bluetooth wireless technology in phones.
Exposure alerts worked for the governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam. He and the first lady tested positive for the coronavirus in September, and because they had it working on their phones, staff members exposed to them got notified. And they’re picking up steam: In its first few weeks, Colorado’s system was activated by a million residents, or 17 percent of its population.
So why aren’t our phones a big part of America’s coronavirus response? For starters, each state’s local health department has to develop and operate its own system (though they’ve recently begun making them work across borders). Privacy concerns about similar-sounding — but actually very different — contact-tracing apps have needlessly scared people away. And frankly, Apple and Google buried the settings and apps you’ll need, bungling what could have been the year’s most-helpful tech launch.
You don’t have much to lose, so you might as well turn exposure alerts on. It takes less than five minutes to set up, and this guide will help.
How do I get coronavirus exposure alerts where I live?
As of Nov. 20, 15 U.S. states and territories, plus D.C., support coronavirus exposure alerts. For instructions, click on the link next to each region — that will take you to a website made by local health authorities:
And these states have either announced their intent to launch services or are running limited tests:
I’ll update this list as more come online.
Nations around the world are also using similar Bluetooth technology for notifications, including Switzerland, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and England.
My state is not on that list. Can I get notified when exposure notifications become available?
Listen out for announcements from your local health department.
If you have an iPhone, this might also help: Go to Settings, then Exposure Notifications and make sure Availability Alerts are turned on.
States can use this system to push out notification to your phone when their systems go live. (This requires you to have location services turned on, so your phone can tell where you are.)
Do I need to download a separate coronavirus app?
That depends on where you live and what kind of phone you have.
Most states have made their own exposure notification apps that walk you through the steps of turning on alerts and — should it be needed — entering in your own positive test result.
In some other places, including Colorado, Maryland and D.C., there’s no app required for iPhones. Instead, you might get a push alert on your phone suggesting you turn on alerts, which is known as the “notifications express” system. If you missed that, you’ll need to go to Settings, then scroll down to Exposure Notifications and turn them on. (This won’t work for all states.)
How do exposure notifications work?
You set it and forget it until you, or someone you’ve been around, gets a positive coronavirus test. That’s all you really need to know. Every once in a while you might get a notification just to remind you the system is still running.
Behind the scenes, your phone is constantly sending out little Bluetooth chirps. There’s not actually a sound, but the chirps contain an anonymous, constantly changing code that can be picked up by other phones you come near. The signals are also used to approximately measure distance. The stronger the Bluetooth chirp, the closer two phones are to each other.
Your phone is also listening for the chirps coming from other phones, keeping a rolling 14-day log of all the phones you come near.
Don’t worry. In my tests, all this chirping and listening isn’t much of an additional drain on your battery. But it does require you to leave your phone turned on to at least sleep mode.
How do you get alerts?
If you’ve had the alerts turned on and end up getting a positive test, you should tell your local health department. The authorities will give you a unique code, or key, to enter into your phone.
Entering the code sends out a kind of bat signal, letting other phones know to check if, and how long, you were in contact.
If there was close contact — usually within six feet for 15 minutes or more — then the phone will pop up an alert recommending a course of action, including getting a test. (Some systems, such as one being tested in Arizona, will let you know if you’ve had as little as five minutes of exposure.)
How are exposure notifications not violating my privacy?
I’m usually the first person to caution that we shouldn’t trust corporations or the government with our sensitive personal data. But after investigating the data flowing out of these state-sponsored apps and services, I haven’t found much danger in having them on my phone.
Here’s why: These systems don’t log your phone’s location. Instead, they use the clever Bluetooth system that helps phones remember whom you were near without knowing where you were.
The person receiving an alert doesn’t know who they were exposed to, or even when exactly it happened. Even government health authorities don’t learn that (which some of them aren’t happy about, because it would help them with contact tracing). It’s all anonymous.
Exposure alerts also won’t be turned on without your permission. The software that makes them work is part of recent upgrades to iOS and Android, but it won’t activate until you tell it to.
Should I turn exposure alerts on if my state doesn’t support it?
It won’t hurt to use a different state’s alert system, but it might not help, either. A bit like masks, you won’t get much benefit from the exposure alerts unless the people around you also have them turned on. And if your actual local health department doesn’t support the system yet, you’ll have no way to report your own positive diagnosis to warn others. (Doing that requires a special code from your health department.)
Which phones does it work with?
You’ll need a phone that can run recent software updates from Apple and Google that enable coronavirus notifications.
For Apple iPhones: The iPhone 6S (from 2015) and newer will work, so long as it is running iOS 13.5 or newer.
For Android phones: You’ll need Android version 6, which is supported on phones dating back to the Samsung Galaxy S5 (from 2014).
Does it work if I live in an apartment building?
Bluetooth signals are not a perfect way to measure exposure. They can roughly measure distance, but we know your actual exposure risk changes a lot depending on whether you are indoors or outdoors, and whether you and the person you’re exposed to are wearing masks.
But so far, apartment living hasn’t proved to be a major problem for this technology. Bluetooth signals can pass through walls but don’t do it very well. (Just try listening with your Bluetooth headphones across the other side of a wall.) The systems have been tuned to emphasize fewer false-positive readings — meaning if you get an alert, chances are you have been very close to someone with a coronavirus infection for a long time.
What happens when I travel or come in contact with someone from out of state?
When states first launched exposure apps, they were all independent islands. But in the coming weeks, most of them will be able to work across state lines. That’s thanks to a new national repository of those positive-diagnosis keys. So, say you live in New York and were near someone from New Jersey who gets a positive diagnosis. Your phone would still be able to get the alert.
Will the SafePass exposure tracking app from Citizen help?
Citizen, a popular security app, released its own exposure-tracking system called SafePass that works nationwide. But unlike the other exposure notifications I’ve described here, it isn’t being run by local governments and requires people to accurately self-report their own coronavirus test results. Citizen says its system has been activated by more than 1.1 million people. But in the past 30 days, it has collected 130 positive diagnoses and sent only about 200 exposure notifications.
Do Bluetooth exposure notifications work?
The technology has now been used by thousands of Americans who tested positive for the coronavirus to let others know they might have been exposed. What we don’t know is how many people have received those notifications. That number could be very small.
Virginia, which has been running its Covidwise app since August, has the most experience. As of Nov. 11, Virginia had more than 770,000 participants — a bit under 10 percent of the state’s population. Of those, 777 people with the state’s app installed had gotten a positive test, and just 488 of them had entered their diagnosis in the system to make alerts go out to others. Virginia says it doesn’t know how many people have gotten alerts that they were potentially exposed.
“Virginia is pleased with the continued upward trend in downloads,” said spokesman Jeff Stover. “However, we desire to have the majority of the population with the app on their devices.”
Pennsylvania’s app was downloaded half a million times in its first nearly two months. “We do believe Bluetooth exposure notification apps are effective,” said Maggi Mumma, deputy press secretary at the state’s Department of Health.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says it is supporting research into the effectiveness of phone exposure notifications. “We are doing this work to help states reach conclusions and make decisions,” said spokesman Jason McDonald.
Other nations have reported clearer success. In Northern Ireland, as of the end of October, more than 16,000 people had received notifications to quarantine after nearly 5,000 positive test results were entered into its app, according to the BBC.
In Switzerland, the first nation to use this Bluetooth notification system, academic researchers say early data on people testing positive after receiving notifications suggests the tech is making “relevant contributions to pandemic mitigation.”
Why isn’t it working better?
This is new technology, and there’s a lot that engineers and health authorities are figuring out as they go along.
The piecemeal rollout embodies many of the challenges in America’s coronavirus response. Asking each state to separately develop its technology has been a hindrance at a time when health departments are strapped for time, money, tech and marketing expertise. Apple and Google developed the underlying technology free, but many states still have struggled to make their own apps. A newer update, called the “express” system, allows states to roll out the technology with less effort. (The state of New York launched its system a few weeks ago for less than $ 700,000.)
Engineers are still working, too, on figuring out how to best read the Bluetooth signals. To start, they were tuned to minimize potential false positives. But now they’re also learning about how the signals respond differently when people are indoors, outdoors — and have their phones in their pockets in either place.
“We are working as a community to optimize it and to figure out how to get those settings to be in the right place so that we do balance the risk of false positives with the getting notifications out to people who are at risk,” says Jenny Wanger of the Linux Foundation Public Health, which has been helping coordinate and provide tech to governments.
A public health challenge is also a marketing challenge. Lots of people have to use this technology for it to work, or even to see what needs to be tweaked to make it work better. Apple and Google have been helping states market it behind the scenes but haven’t included it in their own fancy product launches and TV commercials (including the ones dubiously promoting new smartwatches as “the future of health”). If they’re serious about this tech saving lives, they really ought to step up.
Even if participation is limited, you could still benefit from activating exposure alerts. Oxford University researchers say they think the alerts can be helpful at all levels of uptake. It doesn’t require the majority of the population to reduce infections and save lives. | <urn:uuid:6c3fcc21-5eb7-40fc-8642-9fab9b14c5c1> | CC-MAIN-2021-25 | https://www.technonewspoint.com/a-covid-fighting-tool-is-buried-in-your-phone-turn-it-on/ | 2021-06-13T02:01:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-25/segments/1623487598213.5/warc/CC-MAIN-20210613012009-20210613042009-00257.warc.gz | en | 0.958285 | 2,809 |
But, among other events I wanted to share...
Last night, as I took a bath, I dripped essential oils into the roiling water. As the scent of limes filled my nose, I suddenly felt homesick. Now, I have no upsetting childhood memories associated with limes, (in fact, I have almost no memories associated with limes) so I'm curious where this is coming from. Scent memory is so strong. I remember a quote by Nabokov: "Nothing revives the past so completely as a smell that was once associated with it." Limes. Homesickness. Hmn.
Mothballs remind me of the Ontario cabin my parents drove us to each year, from Florida, for vacation. Mothballs and lake smell. Yum.
Dove soap, of my grandma's kitchen sink, overlooking the bird feeder where she used to shoot at the pigeons with an ancient BB gun, which was so old the BB's would actually bounce off the birds. (Yes, grandma grew up on a farm.)
Grandma must've been big on soap because I also think of her house when I smell lavender soap: she used to keep it in with the fabrics in her sewing room to scent them. It scented my memory, too.
Root beer reminds me of hiking in Wisconsin and chewing on black birch twigs, because that is what they smell and taste like. I like chewing on a black birch twig while walking along and looking at the scenery and keeping an eye out for bear. Very soothing.
You know, I have a friend who, whenever she hugs me, pushes her face into my hair and says, "Yep. Brooke smell." And I really wonder what that is. She even walked into my house once and said, "Yep. Smells like you." I really hope that's a good thing. It probably is.
I do tend to smell at things a lot. I'll even smell the mail. That might sound weird but it's really not, I promise.
If a guy walks by me and smells good, though, I will practically turn and follow him down the street. And I'm happily married. Powerful stuff, smelling is.
Thank goodness for noses!

Love animals? While there is a range of career options for people who absolutely adore animals, many choose to go down the road of becoming a veterinarian.
The increase in people choosing to undertake a degree that will qualify them to work in the industry only proves this, with course applications at the International Career Institute UK increasing from 430 in 2013 to 599 in 2018. It just goes to show how the pet industry is becoming an increasingly popular industry to work in.
A bit of history
Veterinary medicine is not new. In fact, it’s been around since ancient times, with its early development occurring in Mongolia more than 3000 years ago. Since these early days, humans have relied on animals for service, food, and companionship.
Today, animals also play a vital role in health and research. Of course, with the advancement of healthcare and technology, the veterinary industry has changed dramatically. Now, there is a whole range of job opportunities afforded to people who study veterinary care.
Today, the veterinary industry is worth more than four billion dollars and employs more than 25,000 people across around 3200 businesses. There is a whole range of opportunity for those wishing to work with animals and a wide range of services offered to patients. There has also been a growth in the number of households actually having a pet. In fact, Australia has one of the highest pet ownership rates in the world.
As with every other industry, there are various trends occurring through the pet market that will shape and change the future of the industry.
1. Big data
It’s something that is shaping absolutely everything in the world at the moment, and big data and wearables have hit the veterinary industry too. Wearables can be worn by pets to monitor health, and big data is being used to diagnose and assess diseases.
The wearables are able to monitor temperature, heart rate, pH levels, and respiration rate. This information is then transmitted to owners or farmers and also the animal’s vet so that diseases can be caught early and treated.
2. Hey big spenders
Pets are most definitely even more part of the family now than ever before. As a result of this, owners are spending much more on their pets generally (All About Cats explain just how much on their blog), but also on their pets’ health.
There’s been a higher pet insurance uptake in Australia and owners are willing to spend more on procedures to prolong the life of their pet. As such, animal hospitals and veterinary facilities are in desperate need for more vets and vet assistants.
3. Increasing livestock population
In the coming years, the global livestock and poultry population is expected to rise, especially in China, India, and Brazil. This rising population is increasing income levels in the industry and as such, the demand for livestock products is increasing. As a direct result of this, the global veterinary market is benefiting.
4. The rise of telehealth
There is an increasing amount of direct communications between vets and clients either via phone, email or even video conference. This is all due to the changes in, and availability of, technology.
Many clients now expect veterinarian clinics to offer telehealth services and expect a certain level of personalised care when it comes to their animals. This not only helps vet/client communication, but it also means clients can attend appointments even if they’re unable to be there in person and vets can treat senior pets who may not be able to travel to the clinic itself. It’s also a great thing for people with companion animals who need frequent checkups, as it decreases the need to physically visit a clinic.
How this will impact the veterinary industry
These trends will have a dramatic impact on the veterinary industry. It’s believed that there will be growth in the industry, which in turn means there’s a dramatic need for more students to enter veterinarian courses.
According to an industry report, 72% of people consider animals as family members. This is particularly true when it comes to millennials. People are more willing to spend on their animals to ensure they are around for much longer. There’s also a much greater awareness of animal welfare, largely thanks to social media, which means people generally have a unique responsibility to ensure animals are well cared for and facilities are managed correctly. | <urn:uuid:7d032359-bdf1-4515-97c6-2ef721ff7c50> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://tailandfur.com/4-interesting-trends-in-the-veterinary-industry/ | 2019-11-16T23:54:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496668772.53/warc/CC-MAIN-20191116231644-20191117015644-00016.warc.gz | en | 0.96156 | 884 |
Woodland Hills, Calif.-based Anthem Blue Cross has expanded use of the Zagat Health Survey, an online survey tool that enables members to rate their experiences with their physicians, throughout the areas of San Francisco, San Diego and Sacramento. In January 2008, Anthem Blue Cross launched the tool, from New York-based Zagat Surveys, for members to rate physicians in the greater Los Angeles market.
"We're pleased to expand this tool, allowing our members to review and share feedback about physicians throughout these additional areas of the state," said Leslie A. Margolin, president of Anthem Blue Cross. "Since launching the tool last year, we have seen a very positive response from our members, as nearly 90 percent of members who completed the survey recommended their providers and offered useful comments about their experiences."
The Zagat Health Survey tool provides a vehicle for members to review physicians based on a set of distinct criteria. The online survey tool allows consumers to review their doctor visits based on trust, communication, availability and environment. The online entry will display contact information for each network physician, ratings on a 30-point scale for each of the four categories, and the percentage of members who recommend that physician. The most recent comments will be displayed first, and members will have the option to rate the usefulness of comments and report suspicious comments. Anthem Blue Cross members can complete the Zagat Health Survey by logging on to the secure member portal on the Anthem Blue Cross Web site.

Having an intruder in your home or any other type of premises when you are there can be scary and daunting. The body goes into flight or fight mode, blood pressure rises and a hundred and one things start racing through the mind such as what should I do?, how can I protect myself?, should I hide or run? Should I shout out or say something?... and much more.
There are many precautions you can take to deter intruders entering your premises such as installing CCTV and an alarm system and having secure doors and windows but there is very little advice on what to do when facing an intruder. Here are some tips to think about:
Keep calm, take a deep breath
It makes sense but in a real-life situation, it can be hard to do. Taking a deep breath and telling yourself that you can handle this allows you to think rationally and helps you to make the right decision. If your mind is racing then it can cause heightened panic but staying calm helps to avoid this panic and helps you to make better decisions in a high-pressure environment.
Stay put and call the police
The fight part of ‘fight or flight’ mode in your brain might want you to go chasing down the stairs in anger with a weapon but this can put you in considerable danger and the outcome can be a lot more uncertain. Instead, stay put and try to call the police. Decide at this point if you need to escape or what you may need to do to escape (where the nearest and safest exit is, for example).
If there are other members of the family present then make sure that they are secure and also kept as calm and quiet as possible. Make sure that children understand how important it is to stay put and follow your instructions.
Facing the intruder
If you come face to face with the intruder, then having a weapon for self-defence to protect yourself is important. It’s uncertain what state of mind he or she is in. They are most likely to just turn and run but it’s always possible that they might try to become violent or threatening and physical. In this instance, you must stay calm and think rationally. The most likely outcome is that they will leave as quickly as possible via the easiest route possible but if they don’t then follow this advice:
While you may threaten the intruder to get out of the house, it’s important to only use the weapon and any other methods of physical contact as a form of protection as a last resort. Despite the fact that someone has trespassed and their behaviour or the way they might react is unpredictable, UK law is complex and rightly or wrongly protects the trespasser from harm in many situations.
Keep a safe distance from the intruder and do not make forward advances that might be seen or appear to be suggesting you are about to attack them. Ask the intruder to leave immediately and make sure they understand that you have called the police and that you are prepared to defend yourself if necessary. Ensure the path to escape for them is clear and that they don’t have to go past you or any of your family to get out.
Having a personal protection dog
At K9 Protector, we train the right breed of dogs to the highest standard using our proven training processes and only the best in class personal dog trainers. Having a protection dog means that you are less likely to come into direct contact with an intruder and in the unlikely event you do, your protection dog will be able to put you in better control of the situation.
Having a fully trained personal protection dog or family protection dogs also acts as a deterrent to the intruder and will make them think twice about confronting you. The skills and years of training given to your protective dog means that you and your family can feel safer, as you should, in your own home.

How to get to the Physics Department from the Union Square train station:
1) Yale shuttle (free, about 20 min.): it stops in front of the train station (looks like a small white small bus/van, Yale written on the side). No ID is required; they run quite frequently, so you probably need to wait at most 10 minutes. If you have a smartphone, you can even check it in real time here http://to.yale.edu/shuttle.
The line that passes from the train station during the day is the red line, which brings you in front of the physics department in about 20 minutes.
Get off at Prospect Street in front of the Chemistry building (which is next to the Physics one). The stop name is : Chemistry / 225 Prospect
2) Downtown/Union Station Shuttle (free, 5min)+10 min-walk through campus. If the weather is nice and you want to have a little glimpse of the Yale campus, you could take the free downtown/union station shuttle that brings you to downtown New Haven, (it runs very frequently; look for a regular city bus with the green sign and then walk to the Physics Department (10 minutes), walking on Hillhouse Avenue, “the most beautiful street in America” according to Charles Dickens and Mark Twain.
Here is the path
3) Taxi (about $10 including tip): you always find many cabs outside the station (otherwise you can call 203-777-7777).
Walking and biking are also viable methods for getting to, and around, the Physics department. The Canal Greenway is a good route and there are bike racks near Sloane Physics Laboratory which are shown on the Bike Racks map (these two maps were obtained from www.yale.edu/map). Walking and biking directions can also be obtained by going to http://maps.google.com/.

There is nothing worse than your car breaking down. Wherever you are going, no matter the time of day, you don’t want to be stranded on the side of the road or at home next to a car that won’t go.
In some cases your car breaking down can be prevented by getting regular services to have any repairs carried out before they materialise. In other situations, there is nothing that could have prevented it.
Common break down reasons
Ignoring the ‘check engine’ light is never a good idea. One reason may be that the gas cap is loose and checking this can help. It could be more serious, however, such as an evaporative leak or a cracked hose in older cars, which indicates a fuel leak. Regular servicing with Turley Car & Truck can help detect such problems ahead of time.
Flat tyres or blowouts are no motorist’s friend. These are one of the most common issues with breakdowns and can be very frustrating for both men and women alike. Over-inflation or wear and tear is usually the culprits.
By making sure you replace your tyres when required and knowing the levels at which they should be inflated, you can avoid such an annoying mishap. Another cause of flat tyres is nails and bolts. Unfortunately, these are discovered all too late; however, the hole can often be repaired to save replacing the whole tyre.
Cooling systems that are faulty or coolant that is not topped up can result in overheating. It is especially important to keep an eye on the coolant levels over the hot months as well as check brake fluid and automatic transmission fluid where present.
If your warning light does come on then switch off the air conditioning and turn on the heater. This will help remove some of the heat from the engine and hopefully get you to a safe spot.
Your car battery generally lets you down when you least expect it and even batteries that are not that old can cause a problem if they are being drained by another fault in the car. If your car is taking some time to start, it may be the battery, which should be checked.
Common problems can be prevented with the help of Turley Car & Truck as they offer servicing for your trucks and vehicles. Should any issues slip through the cracks, however, you can rely on their reliable tow truck services to get you off the side of the road fast. | <urn:uuid:9cdf8ddd-cdb9-4000-9051-24588c4e2d62> | CC-MAIN-2018-47 | http://turleys.com.au/2013/11/17/dont-left-cold/ | 2018-11-18T07:46:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-47/segments/1542039744320.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20181118073231-20181118095231-00123.warc.gz | en | 0.963963 | 495 |
The Masters level Psychology Program at University of the West offers a Buddhist Psychology Track and prepares students for careers in a wide variety of applied counseling and consultation settings. Furthermore, the psychology program is designed to meet the pre-requirements for the Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) license.
Unique to University of the West is a Multicultural Generalist focus, as well as a one-of-a-kind Buddhist Psychology track.

I seem to be attracted to the art of illustrators, of children's books, from the 1920s. I like the 1930s too. Today, I found an illustrator that is new to me: Honor C Appleton (1879-1951). I could not find any substantial information about him on the Web but his illustrations are beautiful and have such a fragile quality to them.
Let me know if you find any biographical information about him. | <urn:uuid:de5e1d69-405e-42ce-ac9c-14ea1455a5be> | CC-MAIN-2014-52 | http://cinnamonpink.typepad.com/cinnamon_pink/2012/03/honor-c-appleton-illustrator.html | 2014-12-23T00:07:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-52/segments/1418802777418.140/warc/CC-MAIN-20141217075257-00053-ip-10-231-17-201.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.976487 | 93 |

Map your own trip!
Show trip route
At about 2 we hopped in a tuk tuk to an ATM to get money as we discovered that my travel card had gone missing. Down to 1 card out of 4 now! The tuk tuk driver gave us a decent price to go with him to Galle so we said yes and we were off on our way, leaving the girls and Steev!
Galle is beautiful. I originally planned to go there after Ines told me how amazing it was and that she has a place and goes most Christmases. We got a place inside the fort at Frangipanni Motel, another of the Lonely Planet's top choices. The room was 2500 rupees for a night which we gasped at but in reality it is only £12.50 between us haha
We headed out exploring straight after dropping our bags inside. We saw the army base, the lighthouse, the whole circumference of the fort's walls, a few king cobras, several monkeys, numerous cool arty cafés, museums and shops before finally stopping for some fresh coconut water. At this point I was approached by some little nippers who wanted to play cricket with me. Of course I said yes so there I was bowling and batting and obviously winning against a 12, 7 and 5 year old for about 2 hours. An older family friend (about 25) came along after work and joined in and he was pretty good. So much fun and surprisingly hard work but I was happy as it was something I had always planned on doing in Sri Lanka.
We got back to the room, showered and headed out for dinner in the space of 10 mins. Our dinner spot for the night was Mama's, a rooftop cafe which served a traditional Sri Lankan curry and gunner (ginger ish tasting alcohol drink). The curry had rice, tuna, pumpkin, okra, soured mango, beetroot, dahl all on separate dishes.
Headed to bed after this with a severe food coma as well as being generally worn out. | <urn:uuid:df36676b-7a1d-4bb2-a5b5-883d7219a8d3> | CC-MAIN-2015-14 | http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/omclintock/2/1386853581/tpod.html | 2015-03-31T03:45:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-14/segments/1427131300280.0/warc/CC-MAIN-20150323172140-00070-ip-10-168-14-71.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.981981 | 452 |

In the summer of 2002, 70,000 music lovers gathered in Manchester, Tennessee for the first annual Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival. They watched as performances by Ben Harper, Jack Johnson and Trey Anastasio kicked off what would become one of the most expansive and successful yearly festivals around. And while it may have gone through some major changes since that first summer, at its core it’s still the same sunny, happy hippie-fest it’s always been. We’re sure you’re as excited about ‘roo 2011 as we are, so we sat down with festival co-founder Jonathan Mayers to get the lowdown on all things Bonnaroo”from the festival’s history to the struggles of keeping the lineup under wraps to what the future holds. (Spoiler alert: it involves roller skating.)
OS: Can you give us the condensed version of how Bonnaroo got started?
JM: Yeah, sure. My company, Superfly, we were based in New Orleans. We were doing events around special event time frames like Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest. We were doing that for a while, and then around 2001 there were a lot of changes in the music business. A lot of big, independent promoters were being consolidated”SFX, which today is LiveNation”so there was kind of a big shift in the concert business. We recognized that traditional concert promoting wasn’t, for us, the right business model. We were very much inspired by the big Phish events, as well as the New Orleans Jazz Fest. So we did a partnership with a guy named Coran Capshaw ¦ a prominent artist manager who manages Dave Matthews Band and Phish and a handful of other artists, as well as a promoter based in Knoxville, Tennessee [at] EC Entertainment. We found a site in Manchester, Tenessee, which is 60 miles south of Nashville. And basically a lot of artists we were working with at the time were in the jam band scene, you know, the disciples of the Grateful Dead. In that whole scene there was a tradition that it was all about community”the tape trade, going on tour, artists selling direct tickets to their fans”and so we kind of brought all those artists together. In February of 2002, we announced the lineup, and we used no traditional advertising. Not a dollar spent on advertising. We didn’t use Ticketmaster, we used our email list that we had accumulated from doing our events in New Orleans as well as the artists that were on the show. We sent out one email blast and ended up selling 70,000 tickets in two weeks.
JM: Yeah, yeah. So that was the first year, and it came out great. What’s unique about Bonnaroo is everything is done on site. We’re creating a virtual city. And since that first year, we’ve really expanded the programming. We’ve had everyone from Radiohead to Stevie Wonder to Bruce Springsteen to Metallica, Pearl Jam, Jay-Z, My Morning Jacket, Kings of Leon, et cetera et cetera. And we’re entering our tenth year this year.
OS: You mentioned that Bonnaroo started out as a jam fest, and now there are so many different types of artists. Was there a demand for a genre shift?
JM: Well, we’ve always set out to do a great music festival, not so much any specific genre. One of the reasons we do this is our love of many different types of music. And also our audience” most people don’t like just one type of music, you know? We’re constantly talking to the fans. What do you want to see? Who do you want to see? The biggest response that we get is, I like everything. I think that with the iPod and music being so available, it’s broken down all that segmentation. So for us, it was keep evolving, keep bringing new people into the Bonnaroo experience and keep it interesting. You can’t stay the same thing you are, you’ve gotta keep evolving and yet also pay attention to make sure that it’s still in step with the original ethos of why you started it.
OS: Has that been a challenge for you”to have the festival grow and yet preserve those original roots?
JM: Yes and no. I think it’s been something that we’ve been conscious of, but at the end of the day, I think we’ve taken a few programming chances and I think it’s worked for us. I think at the end of the day, it’s all just about presenting great artists. That’s at the heart of it. You’re never gonna please everyone. With Bonnaroo, there’s so many options out there that if you don’t like one particular artist, you go somewhere else. One of the great things about festivals in general is the sense of discovery. You may go because your favorite artists are playing, but here’s an opportunity to discover something.
OS: How do you keep the lineup under wraps for so long? Do people bribe you for the performers?
JM: I just have no friends, really, so I have no one to talk to. [Laughs] No, it’s hard, you know? First off, you want to tell people, because you’re excited about it. But we try to do our best with rumors that leak out there. We’re just happy that people care and want to find out. People definitely want to know. We just do our best to make it somewhat of a surprise.
OS: What’s the farm like the other 360 days of the year? Do you break everything down? We have this vision of it being like Disney World”going on even when no one is there.
JM: [Laughs] It’s actually really cool to be on the property when no one’s there. For me, it’s like going to camp. I live in New York City, so when I’m able to come down there it’s an amazing feeling. All this amazing, positive energy has been there. All these amazing musicians have played the property. And I still remember ten, eleven years ago now first rolling up on the property. So it’s magical, but it’s basically just pasture land during the rest of the year. We bought the property back in 2007, so during the year we do all kinds of different projects. We built the permanent main stage, all kinds of other capital improvements. So there’s a bunch of different work that goes on. We’ll be doing other things on the property besides Bonnaroo, but yeah, right now it’s not much. It’s really cool to go down there when there’s snow on the ground, and see the arch and all that. It’s cool.
OS: How about some tips for artists”how can they make sure their set at Bonnaroo will be a memorable one?
JM: What’s a good way to make your set memorable? I think do what you do. Just do what you do. I think also, take advantage of all the marketing opportunities that are there. Bonnaroo is almost like a press junket, there’s photo opportunities, opportunities to do more intimate performances. I always encourage artists to stay and hang out, because it’s kind of like summer camp for artists, too. Rarely do they get to see some of the other artists that they’re friends with or that they’re into. We’re also known for a lot of cool collaborations that happen. I’d just say get into the spirit of it and hang out and hopefully be there for the entire weekend.
OS: How do you keep Bonnaroo successful when it has to compete with all the other festivals around now?
JM: You know, I think just in general we focus on what we’re doing, and don’t worry about the competition and all this. I think for us, we want to keep putting on the best event we can put on, and that’s all we can focus on. We’re not the only [ones] that puts on a festival, but I think Bonnaroo is certainly different than most events. I think that the camping element is an immersive experience, and we’re doing kind of a different look. But there’s other great festivals as well. We just want to do our thing and focus on that. We’re not in any competition with anyone. We’ve been fortunate that we’ve been successful since year one. For us, it’s just keep improving, whether it’s the experience, the programming, all the elements. Because that’s why we do it”to have fun and keep challenging ourselves and keep making improvements. That’s all you can do, right? I can’t worry about anyone else.
JM: Absolutely. I have crazy ideas every single day. I’ve been desperately trying to build a roller rink, but for whatever reason we haven’t done it yet. But I want to do a roller rink. How badass would that be? You roller skate, right?
OS: Oh, yeah.
JM: It’s like, who doesn’t roller skate?
OS: You need to make that happen.
JM: I know. Well, maybe if you kind of build a consensus I can help push it through. But yeah, I work on all kinds of cool, different projects. Some of it’s like, budget decisions, and real estate decisions, and how much space we have, but we’ve been able to do a lot of cool things. That’s what’s great. It’s like, each year you kind of do make something different. And someday there will be roller skating, I assure you.

One news report after another is coming out into the massive Benghazi coverup perpetrated by people within the Obama administration as the congressional hearings are scheduled to start on Wednesday, May 8, 2013.
Earlier I wrote about the official Obama administration "Benghazi Talking Points" completely unraveling, with published copies of three different versions by The Weekly Standard and how even a Democratic Congressman acknowledged deliberate inaccurate reports coming from the Obama administration.
CBS News now releases a blockbuster report, showing that U.S. Special forces were told "you can't go now, you don't have the authority to go now," causing them to miss a flight that could have saved the lives of the four Americans killed in Benghazi, Libya on 9/11/12.
The account from Gregory Hicks is in stark contrast to assertions from the Obama administration, which insisted that nobody was ever told to stand down and that all available resources were utilized. Hicks gave private testimony to congressional investigators last month in advance of his upcoming appearance at a congressional hearing Wednesday.
According to excerpts released Monday, Hicks told investigators that SOCAFRICA commander Lt. Col. Gibson and his team were on their way to board a C-130 from Tripoli for Benghazi prior to an attack on a second U.S. compound "when [Col. Gibson] got a phone call from SOCAFRICA which said, 'you can't go now, you don't have the authority to go now.' And so they missed the flight ... They were told not to board the flight, so they missed it."
No assistance arrived from the U.S. military outside of Libya during the hours that Americans were under attack or trapped inside compounds by hostile forces armed with rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and AK-47 rifles.
The CBS News report also published excerpts from Hicks' April interview with congressional investigators on the House Oversight Committee.
Read the whole report.
Due to the nature of the information finally being exposed about the events of September 11, 2012, before, during, and after the attack, and the Obama administration's subsequent lies told to the American people, even left-wing news sites are headlining with things like "Vindicated: Charges Of A Benghazi Cover-Up No Longer ‘Fox-Induced Hysteria’."
The emergence of a number of whistleblowers who have come forward to refute the claims made by some members of President Barack Obama’s administration relating to the September 11, 2012, attack on an American consulate in Benghazi does not directly implicate the White House in a cover-up. They do, however, demolish the politically-motivated allegations by a slew of commentators on the left who asserted that those reporters doggedly investigating the American response to the attack were onto something. Those left-of-center commentators who dismissed the investigation into the Benghazi attack as a right-wing delusion animated by a personal hatred of the president have never looked more vacuous.
An interim report from the House investigation into the administration’s response to Benghazi released in April is particularly damning. The report found that the decision to withdraw security assets from the region is likely to have come from the highest levels of the State Department. The report also found State’s talking points relating to the attack were altered to remove references to Al Qaeda’s involvement. These edits are unlikely to have been made to protect classified information, and may have been made to support the White House’s election year claim that the terror group had been effectively neutralized.
Some of the claims made by the Benghazi whistleblowers support the interim House report’s assertions.
The American Spectator addresses the initial investigation by the "Accountability Review Board," and the witness testimony they never bothered investigating:
Also yesterday, Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) said that the Obama administration had literally threatened one or more of the Benghazi whistleblowers and that hospital records had been tampered with to conceal the identity of at least one of the survivors of the attack.
So what is the Obama administration trying to hide? Pretty much everything.
Last week, we learned that the State Department’s Inspector General is investigating the Pickering-Mullen “Accountability Review Board” for, among other things, its failure to investigate and get statements from the Benghazi survivors. Before there were whistleblowers there were survivors, yet the comprehensively misnamed “Accountability Review Board” didn’t question them.
Which isn’t a surprise. The ARB did what it was paid to do: limit the damage and blame people under Hillary Clinton for the failures of leadership and management. It was, simply, a whitewash. We’ll probably wait a long time for the IG to report the facts — 2017 sounds like the right time frame.
More from CNN's Jake Tapper and Dana Bash:
Hicks said that four U.S. Special Forces troops in Tripoli, led by Lieutenant Colonel Gibson, planned to hitch a ride on the Libyan plan to travel to Benghazi to help.
“We fully intended for those guys to go, because we had already essentially stripped ourselves of our security presence, or our security capability to the bare minimum,” Hicks recalled.
But the four were informed by someone with United States Africa Command – SOCAFRICA - that they didn’t have the authority to do so, Hicks said.
“So Lieutenant Colonel Gibson, who is the SOCAFRICA commander, his team, you know, they were on their way to the vehicles to go to the airport to get on the C 130 when he got a phone call from SOCAFRICA which said, ‘you can't go now, you don't have authority to go now,’" Hicks said. “And so they missed the flight.”
“They were told not to board the flight, so they missed it,” Hicks said. “I still remember Colonel Gibson, he said, ‘I have never been so embarrassed in my life that a State Department officer has bigger balls than somebody in the military.’ A nice compliment.”
There is no doubt that information will be coming out at a fast rate leading up to and during the hearings on May 8, 2013.
A couple of questions come to mind.
How soon before Obama throws former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton under the bus and how hard will the Clinton's come out swinging once he has?

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — By most accounts, the Borgata has been Atlantic City’s golden goose, providing the most jobs and tax revenue in the seaside gambling resort.
It’s even wrapped in gold-tinted glass that bathes the surrounding neighborhood in a golden glow when the sun hits it just right.READ MORE: Allegations Of Sexual Misconduct Involving Ocean City Beach Patrol Members Under Investigation
But the goose isn’t laying any more golden eggs anytime soon.
The Borgata is refusing to make a $7.2 million tax payment due Wednesday; it is owed more than $170 million in tax appeals it has won from Atlantic City, and the city says it can’t pay that much.
Last week, a judge allowed the Borgata to stop making tax payments while both sides explore a settlement. The court reaffirmed the city’s obligation to pay $62.5 million in payments for tax years 2009-10.
In addition to that debt, the Borgata reached a settlement with the city for tax years 2011-14 of $88.25 million, which was supposed to be paid by Dec. 31, 2014. It was not, and both sides continued to talk, but no agreement was reached.
The $170 million figure includes interest. The failure of the city to meet the 2014 deadline enabled the Borgata to reinstate its tax appeals for those four years.
Mayor Don Guardian says the city is in danger of running out of money and declaring bankruptcy. He said last week that having the Borgata skip the tax payment due Wednesday would be “devastating.”READ MORE: Multiple Faiths Joining Forces To Combat Philadelphia's Rising Gun Violence
Borgata executives declined comment Wednesday; last week they said they have tried to reach an agreement with the city, which they accused of failing to bargain seriously.
The Borgata is not the only large taxpayer to successfully challenge its tax assessments as the Atlantic City casino market continues to shrink, falling from $5.2 billion in 2006 to $2.56 billion last year. The casinos — and individual home and business owners, as well — are often able to convince a tax court that their properties are worth less than the city says they are, and as a result, they win a reduction of their assessment.
That has blown a big hole in the city’s budget in recent years, forcing city officials to scramble to replace the lost money.
Since it opened in 2003, the Borgata has dominated the Atlantic City casino market. It routinely takes in the most money from gamblers, sometimes by nearly twice as much as its closest competitor.
It is also the largest casino employer; its 5,803 jobs as of Feb. 2 represent nearly 25 percent of all casino jobs in Atlantic City.
The Borgata has paid nearly a half-billion dollars in taxes since it opened, helping to fund a city government that’s now under fire from state officials who intend to take control of the city’s finances, citing years of overspending and mismanagement.
It also routinely reinvests tens of millions of dollars back into its properties.MORE NEWS: 2 Mothers, Babies Rushed To Hospital After Being Rescued From Burning Frankford Apartment Building, Officials Say

|Foods on Five!||Lunch #2|
|Description:||Counting aloud, students move around in a circle, substituting multiples of "5" with healthy lunch foods.|
|Objective:||Students will identify the five food groupings and recognize the importance of eating a variety of foods for lunch.|
- Ask the students to stand in a large circle with enough room between them to stretch both arms out without touching anyone.
- Next, ask them what food groupings are (categories of different types of foods based on what they provide for and how they affect our bodies).
- Then, ask or tell them all five food groupings (fruits; vegetables; grains; milk and milk products; and meats, beans, and nuts).
- Ask them why itís important to eat a variety of foods from all the different food groupings every day (because different kinds of healthy foods provide different benefits for our bodies such as nuts, which give us energy, and fruit, which keeps our skin healthy).
- Explain that they are going to play a warm-up game. Tell the students they will jog (hop, slide) around the circle. You will pick one student to begin counting. That person should say "1."
- The group should continue counting clockwise around the circle one person at a time to 50 as they move.
- Any time someone is supposed to say a multiple of fiveó5, 10, 15, etc., that student should replace the number with a healthy lunch food. For example, 1-2-3-4-apple-6-7-8-9-yogurt.
- Explain that the object of the game is for the group to get to 50 without making a mistake.
- Play the game. Encourage them to mention healthy lunch foods from all five food groupings.
- If a student names a food or drink high in added sugar or fat, gently guide her or him to think of a healthier choice.
If you wish to challenge the class, randomly call out different food groupings and tell them to only name healthy foods within each grouping.
Children should be encouraged to eat foods from each of the five food groupings everyday. These groupings are:
- grains (whole grains are healthiest)
- milk and milk products (low-fat milk and milk products are the healthiest choices)
- meats, beans, and nuts
Healthy ("Go") Lunch Foods from Each of the Five Food Groupings
- Grains—whole grain breads, tortillas, pretzels, English muffins
- Fruits—bananas, apples, oranges, kiwi, grapefruit, cherries, tomatoes, grapes
- Vegetables—celery, broccoli, carrots, snap peas
- Meats, beans, nuts—tuna fish, turkey, grilled chicken, hummus, cashews, almonds, pistachios, peanut butter
- Milk and milk products—low-fat or skim milk, yogurt, cheese, cottage cheese
Less Healthy ("Slow") Lunch Foods:
|hot dogs||fried chicken|
|white bread||french fries|
|pepperoni||fried fish sticks| | <urn:uuid:64c4b030-656d-4984-945e-6bd7b0051df2> | CC-MAIN-2014-15 | http://nyrrf.org/ycr/eat/activity/grade5/5l2.asp | 2014-04-21T14:40:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-15/segments/1397609540626.47/warc/CC-MAIN-20140416005220-00021-ip-10-147-4-33.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.909638 | 669 |

We ran an interesting Facebook poll yesterday, asking all of you what you thought the average cost of a company logo was. It’s a question that a lot of business owners have – how else can you determine what is good value? But, at the same time it can be a bit of a trick question. Why? Well because there are actually different averages for different kinds of company logo.
What your guess was – £150-£500
In our poll we gave 5 options
64% of you guessed that the average cost of a company logo would be £150-£500.
The rest of the votes were split between £50-£150, and £500-£1000.
If we were to extrapolate all the various kinds of logo design £150-£500 would probably be about as close to a mean average as we could get. In reality though, it is deceptive to say that you can calculate one single average cost for company logo design as the outliers are quite simply huge. What is far more useful is to give the average costs based on the size of the company.
The average UK Start-up spends £150-£250 on their company logo.
The average Small Business spend is higher, closer to £500-£750.
The spend for Larger sized corporations is £6000-£10,000
Big brands vary hugely, but the final cost of their company logo often ends up in the millions.
Why is it so hard to work out the answer?
There are a number of variables that make working out this kind of average particularly hard.
- Freelancers charge very different rates to design agencies
- Some logo designers charge by the hour, others charge one set price, and others still will include logo design as part of a package
- It is very hard to know how many companies are using free, or other very low quality & low price options (especially start-ups using free logo makers, or trying to design their own logo)
- There are some companies (especially big brands and corporations) who spend a disproportionate amount of money on their company logo
- Prices do vary across the UK
How do you make sure your company logo is good value?
The reason why the prices vary so much between different sizes of company is because you are paying for different levels of service. The key to getting a good value logo design is to make sure that you aren’t paying over the odds, and that the price you put in is a reasonable investment for the benefits you will get.
Professional logo design between £50 and £250 will vary hugely in quality. There are a number of reasons why the prices are low – you could be restricted on the number of revisions, you could be restricted on the amount of total design time, you could be using an inexperienced designer (a risk that may, or may not pay off). However, there are reputable companies who offer promotional prices on their logo design services which are exceptional value for money (including British Design Experts). Check out the logo design portfolio, and the customer reviews to make sure you are getting the best service you can for this price.
From around £250 to £1000 you should be paying for the more traditional design agency service. This includes consultation, market research and a far more comprehensive service. Make sure you talk to a number of local agencies about what they can offer you. Some will charge by the hour, and others will offer various packages. It will depend entirely on your specific needs who will provide best value for you. Our sister company Snowflake Creative is an example of what kind of design agency offers this level of service.
Above this price, to a certain extent, you’re going to be experiencing a diminishing level of returns. Is a £1 million logo design really one thousand times better than one that was £1000? It’s also worth bearing in mind that some of the most famous brands in the world had their logos designed for next to nothing. The Nike swoosh was originally bought off of a graphic design student for just $35 and has been lauded as one of the best logos of all time, whereas the London Olympics logo cost £400,000 and most people hated it.
Sources and research restrictions
Sources are listed below, but the averages listed above are also based in part on our own knowledge and experience of the UK design industry. There have also not been any comprehensive surveys of the UK design industry since 2009, and a lot of the most detailed data about the average spend on a company logo is American research and pertaining to the US business market.

When you're standing on a street corner waiting to cross, you probably try to make eye contact with the driver of the car in your path. That way, you and the driver create some sort of understanding that they won't slam their car into you. With self-driving cars, obviously, that doesn't really work. So the Sweden-based engineering firm Semcon proposes tweaking the technology: their new "Smiling Car" concept lights up with a smile to show that it has detected you and isn't going to run you over.
"A lot of the discussions regarding self-driving cars are about the car's technology," Semcon user experience designer Karin Ecklund said in a press release. "But how these vehicles will interact with unprotected road users is just as important. Self-driving cars need to communicate in a way that feels familiar and creates trust."
In a survey, the company found that less than half of pedestrians trust self-driving cars today. In the U.S., only 15% of respondents said that they would feel "very confident" that a self-driving car in front of them would actually stop. The designers also rigged up a car to appear self-driving, and watched reactions—most pedestrians looked either terrified or angry.
With more development, the designers say that eye-tracking and laser technology could do an even better job—detecting small head or eye movements to better understand where a pedestrian is going.
The Smiling Car concept is part of a long-term project to help create a global standard for how self-driving cars communicate on the road. But it also seems like it could be a useful feature for regular cars: when it's hard to see a driver, a smiling bumper could make crossing a dangerous street a lot less stressful.

Black Hawk knows that dogs are healthier and more energised when red meat, poultry and fish form the basis of their diets. Black Hawk’s adult dry food range is built around these primary ingredients.
Lamb is a meat that’s easily digested, which makes it a great ingredient for dogs with sensitive stomachs; and rice is a complex carbohydrate that’s packed with essential vitamins and nutrients. There are also a few unexpected ingredients in this formula: blueberries, which are high in antioxidants; dandelion, which is a rich source of magnesium, potassium and calcium; and rosemary, which supports hair growth. And of course, we all know rosemary tastes great with lamb!

FindShortestPath finds the shortest path between two vertices in an edge-weighted graph, allowing a choice between the Dijkstra and Bellman-Ford algorithms. In my (limited) understanding, both of these algorithms fall into the breadth-first category.
My question is if there are accessible implementations of depth-first shortest path algorithms like A* for edge-weighted graphs in Mathematica.
I am aware of the question How to display each step of an A star algorithm?, but before delving into modifying that code so as to work with weighted graphs I wanted to make sure that I don't re-invent the wheel.
In fact, I haven't been able to locate an efficient implementation (using fancy data structures etc.) of A* for edge-weighted graphs in any programming language, but that would probably be a question for another site. | <urn:uuid:fbd6afa0-4980-40e7-a85c-94f4441d0208> | CC-MAIN-2015-40 | http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/43472/a-algorithm-for-finding-shortest-path-in-a-graph | 2015-10-09T10:36:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-40/segments/1443737927030.74/warc/CC-MAIN-20151001221847-00114-ip-10-137-6-227.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.934752 | 179 |
During a recent Starbucks visit, I stood behind a customer who ordered a decaf grande sugar-free vanilla nonfat latte with extra foam and the milk heated to 140 degrees. As I stood in line, I actually started to think, Maybe I want 140-degree coffee too. Maybe, I thought to myself, my choice of milk temperature up to this point has been catastrophically naive. Suddenly, his choices made me unhappier about my own. I began to covet. I wasn't sure what I wanted anymore. I became anxious and indecisive. I wasn't sure I was ready to commit—either to my kind of coffee or to his. Was this really freedom of choice, or slavery to it?
What if we take the same multiplicity of trivial options we have at Starbucks, and apply them to bigger questions: where we should work, where we should study, where we should live, whom we should marry, or whom we should worship? It seems that the more options we have, the...
"Even if we do commit, our culture then makes us feel dissatisfied with the choice we've made."
Sorry, our culture doesn't make us feel anything. Perhaps the problem is, one of the options not taken is taking responsibility. Don't blame the culture if you can't decide which flavor of coffee you want.
Why not have the " Starbucks " of choice. We the same choices when comes to the bible( 200+ flavors), church ( 1000's of flavors) and moral standards. So I guess we can call this the Starbucks age. I guess the Mormons are not all wrong we do becomes god sooner than we though because we decide what is right and wrong and what is best. Starbucks Community church that names just sounds like a good place to worship. | <urn:uuid:cd636142-5888-43f0-9a0f-06a23e669cac> | CC-MAIN-2015-06 | http://www.sermonaudio.com/new_details.asp?ID=36180 | 2015-01-30T11:42:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-06/segments/1422115869264.47/warc/CC-MAIN-20150124161109-00040-ip-10-180-212-252.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.968555 | 368 |

The Supreme Court on Monday unanimously upheld a Nevada ethics law that governs when lawmakers should refrain from voting on official business because they might have a conflict of interest.
The court reversed a Nevada Supreme Court decision that said elected officials have a constitutional right to vote on official business that the state law violated.
The decision came in the case of Michael Carrigan, a Sparks council member who voted on a casino project even though his campaign manager served as a project consultant.
Justice Antonin Scalia, writing for the court, said an elected official's vote "is not his own speech but a mechanical function of government -- the commitment of his apportioned share of the legislature's power to the passage or defeat of a particular proposal."
Almost everywhere else, this is a no-brainer. But here in Nevada, our Supreme Court thought it was simply too much to ask lawmaker to abstain from obvious conflicts of interest.
And we wonder why "outsiders" always call Nevada government corrupt? | <urn:uuid:f97d0302-1f47-43fa-9f95-505ebaa28144> | CC-MAIN-2016-50 | http://nvprogressive.blogspot.com/2011/06/we-cn-haz-ethics.html | 2016-12-03T13:55:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-50/segments/1480698540932.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20161202170900-00054-ip-10-31-129-80.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.965939 | 198 |

We are looking for a Social Media Manager (part- or full-time) who can enhance our Social Media presence and build strong online communities through our various social media platforms. You will be responsible for developing and administering social media content that is designed to engage users. You will also be required to collect and review social media data to develop more engaging content through Twitter, facebook and other social media platforms. We expect you to be innovative, proactive, and speak the community language.
As fans of Esports, we have envisioned virtual stadiums and a 3D viewing experience from the moment consumer Virtual Reality (VR) arrived. With the Virtex Stadium application launching in 2021, we make that dream a reality allowing Esports fans to view gameplay live, in 3D in the center of a virtual stadium. Something that's not been possible before in any other medium. Partnering with publishers and organisers, we are working towards providing a virtual stadium experience for all the top Esports games.
Virtex Entertainment is headquartered in London, UK with fully remote team members in various European countries.
We want to contribute and make VR an exciting place, because we believe it is the future of gaming and entertainment. Creating a VR experience for Esports feels like a perfect fit, because all of our favourite games are already 3D, whether they are a PC, console or a mobile game.
So far we have just been playing and viewing games through 2D screens. Imagine you could only ever watch a football match on TV and never live in front of you in a real stadium?
We want fans to experience the intense excitement and joy only a live event with with a crowd can provide. VR is the ideal platform to deliver this wherever and whenever but we wouldn't be doing it any justice if we stopped there. In fact, this is where our mission starts as a virtual stadium allows us to create previously impossible experiences and opens up completely new territory with endless creative opportunities.
With everything we do, we aim to bring fans closer to the shows, games and teams that they love.
To apply please email email@example.com

Keep Those Guys On Their Toes! + an email
Don’t let him be bored – color your hair!
Dick has never been sure just what color hair his wife would have when he came home.
You see, I have very curly, unruly hair – always have had. So, I’ve always done my own hair – the cutting, the coloring, etc. Yes, there have been surprises through the years. There is a reason that Dick’s nieces for years, called me “Aunt Barbie with that pretty pink hair”.
Just two weeks ago, I found a hair coloring – on sale – in a store. What a bargain…and what a surprise, when the towel came off after mixing the color properly, applying and waiting for it to set and then washing, conditioning and – ta da – so dark and so “not natural” looking…certainly not the color depicted on the box. I jut thought – oh well Barbie, it will wash out – in a month or so. And, in only two weeks, it’s beginning to look pretty good!
Years ago, we lived in a little neighborhood where everyone could see everything that went on. I heard one day that one neighbor had informed another that Dick had a red head coming and going… I laughed …just another bad experience with the dye. That same neighbor used to always inform me when we left the attic light on. I’ve come to believe that it takes people like that to keep a neighborhood safe. But you do have to keep a good frame of mind – neighbors like that can also sometimes be a bit trying! Now, I love the fact that if a friend pulls into our driveway, I can be assured that at least one neighbor has looked out their window and taken note of it… and that’s a good thing.
Then, I remember another time, walking down the street in Columbus, Ohio, wearing a pink angora sweater, (that tells you how long ago that was) and thinking, well, at least I’m coordinated – ‘cause my hair was the same soft pink shade as the sweater… the nieces just loved that color.
One summer, we were planning to vacation in Florida. At that particular time, I had quite long hair – now, remember, this was a long time ago. I had heard, from a couple of friends that you could just iron your hair, and it would come out straight and beautiful! So, of course, I figured – wow, that’s for me – then we could head to Florida, into all that humidity, and I wouldn’t be bothered with the tight curls that always showed up – I would have this great straight hair. So, out comes the iron – set on high. I flung my hair on the ironing board, and applied the iron – yep, you guessed it…..sizzle, sizzle…… and I ended up going to Florida with hair about half an inch inch long – and curly as usual. The stink of my burned hair hung in the house for days before we left…
Now, my hair fiascos would not even stand out as unusual or even interesting. I see blue hair, purple hair, No hair, heads with designs cut in the hair, etc. Did I start a bad thing? Don’t think so… most of my hair colors were purely accidental… afraid the young folks do it on purpose now a-days… probably for pure shock value.
Times have changed, styles have changed
– and yes, Dick and I have changed. We’re moving a bit slower now, and moving more cautiously. A fall can produce broken bones and that’s not a good thing for folks like us – over – oh, let’s say 55. BOY! That’s sad…55 sounds really young! Where does the time go?
So, for right now, I’ll just keep washing a bit more color out, and I’ll be back to blond in no time. But then, there is the thought that Dick is always kept on his toes – cause he never knows just what he’s coming home to – only difference is now-a-days he comes home from the grocery store or the woodshop instead of home from the office – to – who know what next week!
An email from a Reader:
Barbie – thank you for keeping up the emails — I need to be reminded on a regular basis that Mexico is most likely in our future. Our general plan is to spend a couple weeks in San Miguel de Allende to check it out. Then I’m hoping my wife will agree to a six month to one-year sabbatical there. We’ll start with that and see what happens.
I’ll keep your info handy and then when we take the trip I’ll let you know — I’m estimating the trip to take place early next spring (this year is “booked” up).
Take care.

Bedside Delivery Service: An Approach to Hospital Transitions, Discharges, and Readmissions
The Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program (HRPP) which was established by the Affordable Care Act (ACA), imposes penalties on hospitals with excess readmissions and the potential financial burden on hospitals is a growing concern. Post-hospital medication adherence discrepancies that result in patient adverse outcomes is additionally alarming as well as lacking patient medication reconciliation plans or strategies among most hospitals. The post-hospital medication adherence discrepancies and the financial burdens faced by hospitals are problems that can be prevented to increase and improve the patient’s health and quality of life, as well as save hospitals billions of dollars that would, in turn, improve and enhance their own healthcare systems.
- Objective and Mission Statement
This White Paper’s objective and mission will aide hospitals in reducing readmissions by providing a bedside delivery service that will increase patient compliance.
The New England Journal of Medicine published a recent article stating that 1 out of 5 patients are readmitted within 30 days of discharge, costing $17.4 billion of Medicare’s current $102.6 billion budget.1
1.1. The main reason behind these alarming statistics is that patients are failing to fill their prescriptions after being discharged from the hospital. Not only do readmissions increase hospital operating costs, but they also result in a reduction to hospital patient satisfaction ratings that are largely based on patient survey results.
1.2. Implementing a bedside delivery program would:
- Reduce patient readmissions
- Improve patient adherence to medication(s)
- Reduce post-hospital medication errors
- Improve patient’s satisfaction ratings
1.3. The program would also enhance patient care services, provide a continuum of care from the hospital to home through community pharmacy care, reduce costs to healthcare systems and patients, and ensure regulatory compliance.
1.4. In a recent Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) report on policy options and issues concerning Medicare hospital readmissions, factors other than medication non-compliance leading to patient readmissions identified by the report included the following: unsatisfactory communication of medical and care‐ related information by hospital discharge planners to patients; poor patient compliance; and insufficient follow‐up care from care providers. In addition, and even more disconcerting, the PPACA report found that discharge medications were not
included in hospital discharge reports 60% of the time. Having scripts filled prior to a patient’s discharge will ensure that the script is included in a patient’s report which will, in turn, significantly reduce this percentage.
1.5. Additional tactics targeted at reducing readmission rates include the following: managing chronic diseases effectively in the outpatient setting; encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration; managing the health of the population; and monitoring progress with metrics.
2.0 LIFECARE Pharmacy’s Methodology and Solution
2.1. An optimal solution to the growing problem of hospital readmissions is to execute a bedside delivery program before patients are discharged at the hospital to: 1) reduce the number of hospital readmissions; 2) reinforce Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) and Joint CommissionK. SERVICES RECEIVED (Continued)
Case Management Services scores; and 3) raise health awareness and optimize the community healthcare support system to improve patient outcomes.
2.2. A recent Policy Section article that appeared in the Pharmacy Practice News, dated March 2013 issue, stated: “Pharmacists, as the medication experts, are really the best people to be assisting with the medication reconciliation process, including medication counseling for patients going home and ensuring access to new, needed prescriptions prior to leaving the hospital” (Ochoaet al., 2013)
2.3. Educational printed materials, discharge counseling, follow‐up calls (after a patient returns to their residence), and transmission of the script order to the patient’s local pharmacy are all very helpful, but providing a bedside delivery discharge script service is the best option available because it gives patient access to the medication prior to discharge.
2.4. Example 1:
Laura Britton, PharmD, BCPS, CACP, a pharmacy clinical coordinator in ambulatory care service at the University of Utah Health Care in Salt Lake City, was interviewed by Pharmacy Practice News and she stated that since discharge script services were initiated three to four years ago at both the University of Utah Hospital and the Huntsman Cancer Hospital, “We have seen a drop in readmissions. We found that we were making interventions in the discharge orders/prescriptions about 80% of the time at the main hospital and 100% at the cancer hospital, thus showing a tremendous patient safety need,” Britton added.
2.5. Example 2:
Chicago-based Mercy Hospital & Medical Center found it very challenging to ensure patients recovery at home to be safe and comfortable without readmission. Improving access to follow-up care is at the heart of Mercy’s efforts to reduce unnecessary readmissions and repeat emergency department visits. Many patients admitted by Mercy are high-risk patients, so they are in jeopardy of being readmitted after discharge. Recognizing that medication management issues tend to be one of the primary reasons behind preventable readmissions, hospital leaders turned to the pharmacy team to find a collaborative solution. Pharmacists bring unique clinical skills and expertise to care transitions that are key to helping patients achieve the greatest benefit from their medications. The pharmacy team implemented a pilot program at the Mercy Family Health Center to evaluate its capability to prevent 30-day hospital readmissions and repeat ER visits.
2.5a. While reducing readmissions by any degree was considered a triumph, the results posted within the first month of Mercy Family Health Center Clinic operations surpassed all of Mercy’s expectations (see Figure 1). Within the first month, readmissions of patients seen by the nurse practitioner decreased, and readmissions decreased even more significantly when the pharmacist and nurse practitioner saw the patient together.
Figure 1: Discharge Clinic Readmission Rates
2.5b. Mercy improved and sustained these results over the course of the first year of its discharge clinic’s operation:
- In the first month, only 3% of at-risk patients seen by both the pharmacist and nurse practitioner were readmitted within 30 days of discharge vs. 15% of post-discharge patients who were seen by the nurse practitioner alone [see FIgure 1].
- By the end of the first quarter, the readmission rate for at-risk patients seen by both the pharmacist and nurse practitioner dropped to 2% compared to 15% for at-risk patients seen only by the nurse practitioner.
- In the following three quarters, 0% of the at-risk patients seen by both the pharmacist and nurse practitioner were readmitted, versus 11%, 17% and 8%, respectively, for the same time periods for at-risk patients seen only by the nurse practitioner.
- As a whole, the discharge clinic experienced a drop in readmission rates for all its patients from 7% in its first quarter to 1% a year later.
2.5c. The ongoing operation of the clinic has contributed to Mercy’s ability to reach key quality measures by significantly reducing readmissions among their at-risk patient populations. Through this initiative, patients have acquired a better understanding of their medication regimens and health conditions, and now have access to the information they need to properly and confidentially care for themselves and recover at home.
The table below includes additional studies of pharmacist intervention at discharge.
3.0 Bedside Delivery: How it works… 3.1. The LIFECARE Bedside Delivery Program is a beneficial and successful tool that hospitals can (and should) take advantage of when discharging any patient, especially those with chronic conditions.
3.2. Here’s how it works…
- First, the patient is given the option for a bedside delivery service. If the patient elects to use the bedside delivery service, LIFECARE Pharmacy is notified of patient discharge.
- A dedicated LIFECARE Representative then gathers patient information and script details.
- Next, prescriptions are processed.
- Payment is then arranged with the patient or caregiver.
- Medication instructions are offered to the patient.
- The medications are delivered to the patient’s bedside.
- The patient receives a follow up call from the Pharmacist 48 hours after discharge.
- There is a pharmacist clinical therapy review approximately 10 days post-discharge.
- And finally, there is community integration provided by the pharmacist at 25 days post-discharge.
3.3. Taking the extra step to include bedside delivery in the transition of care will reduce hospital readmissions, improve patient safety, and enhance the patient’s discharge experience. Educating the nurses and doctors of the bedside delivery service and it’s benefits will be necessary in the roll out of the program. The pharmacy technician will ensure compliance with HIPAA policies, they will be cleared by the hospital’s HR department, trained, and will be issued a hospital badge to be worn when while in the building.3.4. LIFECARE Pharmacies are on the frontline of a new transition of care program, a bedside delivery service, which brings hospitals and health systems together with a well coordinated care model designed to reduce readmission rates and reduce overall healthcare costs, while improving patient health outcomes and medication compliance.In 2014, more than 25 million new patients will enter the U.S. health care system as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), driving the need for change.
3.5. This impacts medical facilities nationwide that face possible penalties from Medicare for patient readmission rates that are too high, under the ACA that took effect Oct. 1, 2012According to Washington Adventist Hospital in Maryland, of its first 48 high-risk patients enrolled in bedside medication delivery programs, only three were readmitted within 30 days of discharge.
3.6. Preventable hospital readmissions cost the U.S. healthcare system approximately $25 billion per year, as stated in a Pricewaterhouse Coopers’ Health Research Institute study. Bedside Pharmacy Services are now available to patients at a growing number of locations, including Sarasota Memorial Health Care System, Washington Adventist Hospital in Takoma Park, Md., and Marion General Hospital in Marion, Indiana.3.7. As many hospitals and medical centers place a greater emphasis on reducing patient readmissions, pharmaceutical companies are aiming to broadly roll out the program to other facilities throughout the U.S., including more than 150 hospitals and health systems nation wide. LIFECARE Pharmacy would like to implement this in San Antonio and throughout Texas.3.8. The LIFECARE Pharmacy Bedside Delivery Program offers a number of services, including:
- Medication review – pharmacists review patients’ prescriptions upon admission to the hospital and at discharge, and check for potential interactions and simplification of medication regimen
- Bedsidemedication delivery – LIFECARE pharmacy technicians deliver medication(s) that the patient will need to take after discharge directly to the patient’s hospital room before discharge, and offer medication education and instructions
- Patient counseling – pharmacists provide medication counseling to both the patient and caregiver and work in close communication with the medical staff
- Regularly-scheduled follow-up calls – pharmacists conduct regular calls to follow up on patient progress, discuss regimens and answer any questions or concerns
- Reducing hospital readmissions is our majorgoal
- Specialty Packaging (Ex. Below)
3.9. San Antonio local hospitals are under increasing pressure to deliver high-value health care. For that reason, LIFECARE Pharmacy Bedside Delivery Program is at the cutting edge of innovative, cost-saving approaches to coordinated and integrated healthcare. With the recent implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), more focus has been placed on the coordination of care and reducing unnecessary medical costs. In response to a provision within the ACA, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) enacted strategies to reduce readmissions and curb unnecessary costs. CMS will not fully reimburse for a related diagnosis, such as myocardial infarction, chronic heart failure, or pneumonia, if readmission occurs within a 30-day period. Currently, the penalty associated with a readmission is a reduction in the reimbursement rate, which is presently 2% and will increase to 3% for FY 2016. Due to the high volume of high-risk patients being discharged at many hospitals, LifeCare pharmacists will collaborate with hospital discharge staff to coordinate patient medication discharge education. 4.0 Outcomes and Takeaways in Hospital Institutions and Patient Care Facilities 4.1 The bedside delivery service is remarkable for so many reasons. Implementing a program that delivers medications to a patient’s bedside prior to discharge ensures that the patient has access to their prescriptions before they return home, can improve medication adherence, and has the potential to reduce readmission rates. Data indicates that only about 40% of patients fill their prescriptions the day of discharge, and 22% do not fill their prescriptions by a median of 12 days after discharge. Patient-reported barriers included lack of transportation, difficulty affording medications, and long wait times in the pharmacy.4.2. The following are benefits relating to the bedside delivery service:
1. Convenience. The patient receives the medications before leaving the hospital. Our patients and their families love this service.
2. Compliance. We know that the prescription was actually filled. The literature shows that many prescriptions that are written are never filled, which reduces medication compliance, increases the cost of healthcare and ultimately decreases the quality of life for patients.
- Medication Adherence due to easy to follow specialty packaging. Patients will not get confused on which medication to take, which dosage to follow nor time of day most optimal for outcome.
- A significantdecrease in readmissions to an already burdened hospital team.
- Overall decrease in the cost of care and savings to hospitals.
5.0 Executive Conclusion
5.1. There is evidence in the research that pharmacy bedside delivery services reduce readmission rates and improve medication compliance among patients. Collaborative practices are evolving that include greater pharmacist responsibility for prescribing medications as part of coordinated health care teams in hospitals and clinics. It is evident that patient medication adherence must receive a much greater emphasis. Ensuring that recently discharged patients recover safely and comfortably at home is one of the primary objectives of every hospital; yet, it can prove challenging. LIFECARE Pharmacy Network’s bedside delivery program is one of the solutions to address discharged patients medication compliance, satisfaction levels as well as reducing their chances for readmission. As hospitals aim to decrease their readmission rates and increase patient medication compliance, prescription management and reconciliation have taken on an increasingly significant role. Hospitals will be turning to their community pharmacies to assist in reducing readmission rates. As medication experts, community pharmacies are fundamental and should be proactive in collaborating, analyzing and implementing medication management programs in the hospital discharge and post-discharge follow up proceduresFor additional information call Eduardo J.

Gaming laptops may not be making so much buzz in media and market like the gaming or mobile phones but it doesn’t mean that companies are not working on gaming laptops; in fact, now laptop manufacturers are working on gaming laptops more than ever.
Laptop manufacturer like Asus, Lenovo, and Acer are working on gaming laptops very aggressively, these companies are having their dedicated series or I should say a brand for a gaming laptop. “ROG” series is the premium gaming laptop brand by Asus, Lenovo calls its gaming laptop lineup “Legion” and Acer has “Predator” series of laptop for gaming.
In this post, I am going to share the quick review of an entry-level gaming laptop by Asus and it is the Asus F570ZD-DM226T (F570Z). Asus F570Z is a gaming laptop for entry-level gamers who are looking for a gaming laptop with not very expensive price tags. Asus F570Z is powered by Ryzen 5 2500U Quad-Core processor by AMD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 with 4GB GDDR5 VRAM and integrated AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics and 8GB of DDR4 RAM.
Asus F570ZD is available on most of the online stores at a price of Rs 51,000 to 54,000 depending on different e-stores and the current offers. PayTM mall is offering the laptop at the price of Rs. 50,999 on Flipkart it may cost you Rs.53,990 and Amazon is selling it at a price of Rs 51,000.
Key Specifications of Asus F570ZD-DM226T (F570Z):
- 15.6″ (16:9) LED-backlit Full HD (1920×1080) 60Hz Anti-Glare display panel
- Plastic body with textured metallic finish
- AMD Ryzen 5 2500U Quad-Core processor; clocked at 2.0GHz (2 M Cache, up to 3.6 GHz)
- 8GB of DDR4 2400MHz SDRAM; RAM expandable up to 32GB using 2xSO-DIMM socket
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 with 4GB GDDR5 VRAM
- Integrated AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics
- 1 TB hard disk drive (HDD) or Mechanical Hard Drive
- Operating System: Windows 10 Home (64 bit)
- Connectivity: 1 x Type-C USB 3.0 (USB 3.1 Gen 1), 1 x USB 3.0 port(s) Type A, 2 x USB 2.0 port(s); 1 x HDMI; Multi-format card reader (SDXC); RJ45; Integrated Mic and Webcam, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.1, Ethernet 10/100/1000, and Sonic Master sound properties
- Battery Backup: Up to 3 hours
- Color: Black
- Dimensions: 25.6 x 37.4 x 2.2 cm
- Weight: 1.96 kg
Design and Display of Asus F570Z (F570ZD-DM226T):
In general, there is a perception that the gaming laptops would be a very heavy and bulky machine but not this one. The one we got for the review is Asus F570ZD-DM226T (F570Z Model) and considering the fact that its target userbase is entry level gamers, it is very lightweight. As you may see in the key specifications section the weight of Asus F570ZD only 1.96 kg which makes this a very portable gaming laptop. The uses of the plastic body could be one of the reasons behind the lightweight of Asus F570Z (F570ZD-DM226T).
Not only the lightweight which making this a portable gaming laptop but also its dimensions. Asus F570Z is also thinner than most of the gaming laptops, at first sight, you won’t even think that this could be a gaming laptop. There is a Cyan color outline around the lid and the trackpad, giving the laptop kind of a unique look.
It may feel weak and poor build when you hold it with the display portion or upper portion of the laptop, so I can not say that it is a solid build laptop, the company has failed to build an impression that the system is strong and rugged, you can easily find out that they have used a plastic body as soon you touches the Asus F570Z laptop.
SonicMaster technology equipped speaker grille is above the keyboard but the sound output from its speaker of the laptop is below average, you may need to have either a good external speaker or a good headphone to truly enjoy the music or sound while using this system to play games or watch movies.
It has two USB 2.0 Type A ports, a USB 3.0 Type A port, a USB 3.1 Gen1 Type C port, a 3.5mm audio jack, an Ethernet port, an HDMI 1.4 port, a microSD card reader, and a DC jack. At the bottom, it has rubber uplifters at all four ends, which help towards cooling the body and stick on the desk.
Asus F570Z comes with the 15.6 inches Full HD display with a resolution of 1920×1080. A good display is very important for any laptop whether it’s a gaming or any other entry-level to premium laptops. The display of F570Z is good and you will find it satisfactory with all kind of uses either watching movies, browsing the internet or playing games. You may easily find laptops with a better display and even higher resolution but I don’t have any complaint considering the price tag of Asus F570Z.
Cutting down bezels is the new trend but not for Asus F570Z, it has thick bezels all around the display which looks not a very new system design at all.
Thanks to its bigger body size, the laptop has a full-sized keyboard with backlit and 1.4mm of key travel to provide a reassuringly solid feel and a comfortable typing experience, even after hours of use.
Software and Performance – Asus F570Z:
The Asus F570ZD-DM226T (F570Z) runs the Windows 10 Home (64-bit) out of the box. Windows 10 operating system is well known for providing a better gaming experience than its all other previous versions of the operating systems. No matter what’s your need, you may find Windows 10 OS more capable and stronger than any other operating systems.
Asus is providing an interesting app with this system which is called ASUS Hello, using this application you can register accounts of ASUS members, Dropbox, and McAfee, without doing this separately for each account.
As you have read in the above section, Asus has packed the AMD’s Ryzen 5 2500U processor clocked at 2.0 GHz (up to 3.6 GHz), 8GB of DDR4 2400MHz SDRAM memory which can be extended up to 32 GB using the 2 x SO-DIMM socket. The Asus F570Z also comes has the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 with 4GB GDDR5 VRAM and integrated AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics; there is no SSD but you will get 1 TB HDD or mechanical hard drive to store your data.
Overall hardware and software performance of the machine is good; If you remember the fact that this is just an entry-level gaming laptop and its price then you will find this system fully satisfying but if you are looking for the top-notch seamless performances for all type of games including the resource hunger games then this is definitely not the system you should look for and in that case you should go for the ASUS ROG Zephyrus series laptops recently launched by the company or “Legion” and “Predator” series by the Lenovo and Acer respectively.
When you are talking about gaming laptops then you shouldn’t think much about the battery life, because expecting a good battery life from a gaming system would be pretty unfair. Moreover, it does not matter what system you using, you gonna get the better performances while your system is connected to the power source instead of on-battery. Still, during the review I have got around 3 hours of battery backup while using it on battery for the general browsing, watching some videos playing song and other regular uses.
You will barely find any gaming laptops at this price range, any good gaming laptop will cost you minimum 80-90,000+ INR; so this is a positive point for this laptop because there isn’t a huge competition in its price segment. You can consider buying Asus F570ZD-DM226T (F570Z) if you are looking for a gaming laptop around 50k with a good display, performance, and easy to carry or portable.

Creation crew will arrive this week
The city of Enumclaw is gearing up for the biggest event to hit the community in more than a decade.
Creation 2010 officially opens its four-day run July 21, but key organizers could start arriving today, Wednesday, and volunteers will begin setting up the Enumclaw Expo Center grounds this weekend. Attendees are anticipated to arrive in droves beginning Tuesday.
Creation is no stranger to the Pacific Northwest, but this is its maiden voyage in Enumclaw. Billed as the largest Christian music concert in the United States, Creation offers both an East Coast and West Coast show. For the past dozen years, Creation’s western home has been the Gorge Amphitheatre on the banks of the Columbia River. For a variety of reasons, organizers began looking for a new site and found Enumclaw to their liking. The move was announced in November and both sides have been working steadily to prepare the community for the impact.
It’s expected the Creation show will have an impact on nearly every aspect of the Enumclaw community. In particular, streets will be busier and stores should be more crowded.
The city staffer most involved with Creation is Kristen Damazio, marketing and events coordinator at the Expo Center.
She has high praise for the Creation folks, noting the concert operation is “a well-oiled machine.” The city’s only responsibility, she said, will be to have the lawn mowed, pick up the daily trash and clean the restrooms. There’s really no extra expense to the Parks and Recreation Department, she said, since extra staff is traditionally on duty to handle the additional needs that come with the summer months.
Fire Chief Joe Clow said his department has been involved “from the early planning stages.”
He said Creation sets up its own clinic, staffed with medical staff. Enumclaw services will be needed, he said, only if a patient requires transportation to Enumclaw Regional Hospital.
To be safe, Creation is paying Clow’s department to keep two extra people on duty from noon to midnight all four days of the event. That’s 96 extra hours of staff time at $50 per hour, the chief added.
Police Chief Jim Zoll also has had representatives on board from the beginning. It’s not anticipated that Creation will bring a rowdy crowd, but traffic is the crucial issue for law enforcement. Zoll said his staff has worked with members of the King County Sheriff’s Office and Washington State Patrol to address those issues.
Bill Darpino, a Creation organizer, agreed transportation will be most noticeable impact in the city. Everyone tends to arrive at at the same time, he said, and depart as a group.
Creation organizers anticipate daily crowds of 14,000 to 15,000, according to spokesman Jacob Matthews. Many of those will spend all four days at the event, and Creation has rented pasture land around the Expo Center to accommodate those who generally pitch a tent and camp.
The event will feature some of the top names in contemporary Christian music on the main stage; there also will be a kid stage, worship stage and late-night stage. In addition to the headline acts, there will be opportunities for lesser-known bands to play. | <urn:uuid:615a9018-71bc-4ed3-b9df-a38eee59dd8b> | CC-MAIN-2015-35 | http://www.courierherald.com/news/98278384.html | 2015-08-30T22:34:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-35/segments/1440644065375.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20150827025425-00145-ip-10-171-96-226.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.961089 | 710 |

Prompted by Jessie de la Cruz
On Medium: “Could Archives Democratize Art History?,” by Kealey Boyd, in response to the Tilt West Roundtable: Art in Time: Permanence, Ephemerality, and Preservation.
Permanence, Ephemerality, and Preservation
By Jessie de la Cruz
The arts have always been and continue to be a great mediator, the lens through which we understand our collective humanity over time. However, if history is written by the victor, how much can we actually know about our history and, furthermore, our arts history?
As an arts archivist, I’ve been consumed by questions relating to preservation and permanence. How many artists and artworks have slipped through the cracks of our historical record? Who has documented thriving D.I.Y arts scenes, street art and public performances? What artworks, created in an ephemeral state, have been lost forever? And, more importantly, what voices and perspectives have been omitted from our arts history?
We exist in a born-digital culture—every second of every day, thousands of images, videos and documents are created and transmitted across digital platforms. The chances of an artist’s shoe-box of sketchbooks, diaries and correspondence being discovered into the future is miniscule. How will historians and scholars tell the story, interpret the past and research an artist if no paper trail exists?
Answering these questions is vital to understanding the potential of archives in contemporary art and local history. Artists’ archives are more than just piles of paper in a dark basement; they are the documents of human existence, providing a window into understanding the artist’s intent, process and sources of inspiration. Contemporary archiving is not a passive act; rather, it is a radical one, in which the people play an active role in who and what is archived and what is deemed “history.”

Using These 2 Words a Lot Could Signal Depression or Anxiety
Maybe that friend who can't stop talking about herself isn't just a narcissist after all.
Sometimes, depression can be obvious—say, if a person regularly complains about feeling sad, hopeless, or unmotivated. But other signs of emotional distress can be more subtle. Now, a new study suggests a connection between negative emotions and two little words that may come as a surprise: “I” and “me.”
That’s right: People who frequently talk about themselves may not be narcissistic; they might actually be anxious, depressed, or neurotic. The findings are published in the Journal of Personality and Society Psychology, and they align with previous research that “I-talk” (as it’s known in psychology circles) may be a marker for depressive symptoms. In fact, the authors of the new study say, people who use a lot of first-person pronouns may be predisposed to having more negative emotions in general.
For the study, researchers looked at data from more than 4,700 individuals in the United States and Germany who participated in experiments that tracked their use of I-talk, either in written or spoken tasks. The participants also underwent screenings that measured their levels of depression and negative emotionality, also known as neuroticism—the tendency to easily become upset or distressed. Negative emotionality can manifest as depression, but it can also take the shape of anxiety, worry, tension, anger, or frustration.

The researchers found that the average person speaks about 16,000 words a day, and, on average, about 1,400 of those are first-person singular pronouns. People in the study who were prone to emotional distress, however, used “I” and “me” up to 2,000 times a day.
Previous research has also suggested that I-talk may be linked to depression; some experts even believe screening for I-talk frequency could be used to assess a person’s likelihood of having or developing the condition. But Allison Tackman, PhD, a research scientist at the University of Arizona and first author of the new study, says the connection may be deeper than that.
“The question is, does the fact that someone uses first-person singular pronouns a lot tell us more about their tendency to be depressed, or their tendency to experience negative emotions more broadly?” Tackman says. “It really appears to be the latter. Our findings suggest that I-talk would be better used to get an idea of a person’s risk of experiencing mental health issues in general, rather than depression in particular.”
Tackman and her colleagues also looked at whether gender affected the relationship between I-talk and negative emotions, since some research has suggested that women who are depressed may be more likely to use I-talk than men. However, they found no difference between males and females. “Regardless of your gender, if you are more likely to experience negative emotions, you’re more likely to use first-person singular pronouns,” she says.
In a way, the link between I-talk and depression or anxiety makes sense: It’s easy to think about people with emotional distress saying things like “I can't stop worrying,” “I’m so sad,” or “I hate this.” But the new study also found that there weren’t a lot of interactions between the words “I” and “me” and other words with either negative or positive connotations.
In other words, it didn’t seem to matter what context I-talk was used in—suggesting that a person doesn't have to be complaining or worrying to set off alarm bells. Theoretically, says Tackman, a warning sign of emotional distress could also be people talking about themselves (excessively, that is) in a positive light.

Being aware of your own use of first-person pronouns may serve as a good self-evaluation as to how you’re doing emotionally, says Tackman, although she acknowledges that it can be hard to notice or keep track of how often you use "I" and "me" yourself. Perhaps more importantly, she says, is keeping this finding in mind when listening to friends and family members—and, yes, those annoying acquaintances who constantly ramble on about themselves.
“When someone is using a lot of I-talk, it can help to be aware and maybe start to wonder if there’s something going on in that person’s life, that maybe they’re not doing so great,” Tackman says. “Having self-focus is good but sometimes too much self-focus is an indicator that something’s wrong.” | <urn:uuid:d6864eb5-cfd2-4a6e-b526-5e08a81e6007> | CC-MAIN-2019-39 | https://www.health.com/depression/i-talk-depression-anxiety | 2019-09-19T07:26:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-39/segments/1568514573444.87/warc/CC-MAIN-20190919060532-20190919082532-00210.warc.gz | en | 0.967234 | 1,040 |

Former Chair of National Organic Standards Board Writes Resignation Letter to the Organic Trade AssociationOctober 11th, 2013
The esteemed former chairman of the National Organic Standards Board, James Riddle, responds to comments from the board president of the Organic Trade Association (OTA) by resigning his long-time membership with the OTA.
In his resignation letter, Mr. Riddle corrects the OTA’s new president Melody Meyer, who is a vice president of the $6 billion organic/natural distributor, United Natural Foods International, on her misrepresentations in defending the recent USDA power grab neutering the power Congress gave to the National Organic Standards Board to protect the integrity of organics.
The letter from Mr. Riddle appears in its entirety below.
October 11, 2013
To the OTA Board of Directors:
I have been involved in the organic sector since the early 1980’s as a producer, inspector, trainer, policy specialist, outreach coordinator, grant program administrator, activist and eater — as well as serving on the National Organic Standards Board. I have been a member of the Organic Trade Association since the early 1990’s, was co-author of OTA’s American Organic Standards and wrote OTA’s comments on the USDA’s second proposed organic rule.
OTA’s new Board President, Melody Meyer, recently wrote and released a divisive, inaccurate and accusatory article entitled, “Stop the lies and get behind your National Organic Program.”
In her article, Ms. Meyer displayed an alarming lack of understanding of the Organic Foods Production Act (OFPA) and the National Organic Program (NOP) Final Rule, as well as disrespect for public interest groups who have been part of the organic movement from the beginning.
For starters, Ms. Meyer stated: “In 2001 the first US organic standards were written into law after years of discussion, discovery and scientific review.” This statement is incorrect. The law, OFPA, was passed in 1990. The NOP Final Rule (which is a regulation, not a law) was released in December 2000 and took effect in October 2002.
In discussing allowed and prohibited substances on the National List, Ms. Meyer overlooks the fact that OFPA only allows the use of synthetic and non-organic substances as “exemptions.” Those exemptions are required by OFPA to sunset, or end, after 5 years, unless the allowances are reviewed and renewed by the NOSB, which has statutory authority over the content of the National List.
Ms. Meyer states: “All that’s changed is it now takes two-thirds majority to vote to list and two-thirds to delist.”
That is a huge change, and one that does not comply with the OFPA’s clear language regarding the powers of the NOSB to determine substances and annotations on the National List; OFPA’s sunset provisions; and the need for any action of the Board to be based on a 2/3 majority “decisive vote.”
Despite the NOP’s new directive, OFPA (the law) has not changed. Substances sunset from the National List unless they are reviewed and renewed by a decisive 2/3 vote of the NOSB. In order for listings to be legally valid, they need to be renewed following an affirmative vote of the Board. Any substance renewed by a less than 2/3 affirmative vote will certainly be subject to legal challenge.
Ms. Meyer goes on to state: “Elsewhere the article cites the ‘lack of public input on this process.’ This statement is, again, outrageously bogus.”
The NOP’s new directive was issued without any discussion with the Board at a public meeting. There was no vote of the Board to support the directive, and no opportunity for members of the public to offer input to the NOSB or the NOP on the directive.
This situation is analogous to the 4 “retracted directives” that were issued by the NOP in 2004, when I served on the NOSB. Those directives would have: a) allowed the labeling as “organic” of products not covered by NOP standards; b) allowed the use of antibiotics in dairy cattle to be used in organic production; c) allowed the use of fish meal in livestock feed; and d) allowed the use of pesticides with unknown inert ingredients. They were issued with no NOSB consultation or public comment.
After public outcry, USDA Sec. Anne Veneman intervened, ordered the directives withdrawn, and ordered staff to work in close consultation with the NOSB on future draft rules, policies and directives. It appears that those lessons have been forgotten. Consulting with the NOSB on implementing OFPA is required by law.
Finally, Ms. Meyer suggests that persons with concerns “reach out to the NOP directly. They are always available to answer questions and concerns.” Not! The NOP’s website is not even operational during the shutdown!
Due to the divisiveness and inaccuracy of the new OTA President’s comments, I have decided to allow my OTA membership to expire.
Though I disagreed, I have maintained my OTA membership as OTA has tried to push through a new tax (checkoff) on all certified organic operations to fund an organic promotion program, instead of looking for creative ways to capture support dollars from retailers and consumers who benefit from organic production.
I have maintained my OTA membership, even though I have seen my trade association place its lobbying strength and resources to pass an organic checkoff referendum while programs that benefit organic producers, such as the national organic certification cost share and the organic research and extension initiative, have gone unfunded.
I have remained a member when I have seen OTA advocate for the allowance of questionable artificial (i.e. synthetic) additives used in organic food production and processing.
But the positions taken and attitude displayed by the OTA’s new president are too much. I cannot, in good conscience, renew my OTA membership.

I was honored to be invited to attend the 10th Annual Selby Scholar Symposium held on December 27th, 2018 at Michael’s on East in Sarasota, FL.
Recipients of the Selby Scholarship are invited to meet and connect with members of the community who will act as mentors to the students during their college careers. This year I was delighted to meet Emily Boykin, 2nd year student at Florida State University. She is pursuing a career track not too different from mine before I ventured into the practice of law.
I look forward to hearing about how her studies are progressing and how I can help or advise her in any way. | <urn:uuid:d261e17c-c858-4e53-a89d-7fafdbe08eb0> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.60ishlovingjourney.com/2018-selby-scholar-symposium/ | 2019-06-21T00:02:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999291.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620230326-20190621012326-00462.warc.gz | en | 0.988264 | 134 |

Californians for Safety and Justice was proud to support the following pieces of legislation in 2016:
SB 1466 (Mitchell) – Mental Health Services for Foster Children This bill would require that all child welfare system and probation-involved youth who have been removed from their homes receive specific screenings for trauma as part of regular screenings under Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment program (EPSDT). Trauma among youth often goes undetected and providing a trauma-specific screening tool for evaluating children will help get children earlier access to therapies and counseling that meet their needs.
Status: Passed Legislature, Vetoed by Governor on 9/28/16.
SB 1404 (Leno) – Victims of Violent Crimes: Trauma Recovery Centers This bill would establish minimum standards for trauma recovery centers (TRC’s) in California. Because TRC’s now get funding from Proposition 47 savings, it is important to ensure that those dollars go to services designed to meet the greatest needs survivors have. This bill would provide the Victim’s Compensation Board with guidance to help ensure that funds go to the most critical of trauma services.
Status: Held in Assembly Appropriations Committee.
AB 2177 (Maienschein) – Victims of Crime Act Funding Advisory Committee This bill would create a Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) advisory committee within the Office of Emergency Services (OES). The Committee would hold two public meetings annually to review proposed expenditure of federal VOCA funds and to evaluate the efficacy of funded programs. The Committee would be empowered to make recommendations to OES on future funding needs and program improvements and would be comprised largely of crime survivors.
Status: Passed Legislature, Vetoed by Governor on 8/26/16.
SB 1110 (Hancock) – Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion This bill would create three Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion (LEAD) pilot programs in California. LEAD is a harm reduction diversion program that offers alternatives to incarceration for people suffering from drug addiction. Created in Seattle, the program has successfully reduced recidivism and improved outcomes for people trapped in the cycle of addiction.
Status: LEAD Program was approved as part of the 2016-17 Budget; SB 1110 language was made part of Budget Trailer Bill SB 843; Passed Legislature, Signed by Governor on 6/27/16.
AB 2765 (Weber) Proposition 47 Petition Deadline This bill would extend the deadline for courts to carry out the record changing process for Proposition 47-eligible records that predate the ballot initiative by five years beyond the existing sunset, to November 4, 2022. Without this additional time, all petitioners seeking changes to their records will be required to file motions and courts will schedule good cause hearings for each petition prior to granting the record change.
Status: Passed Legislature, Signed by Governor on 9/28/16
Proposition 47 savings for 2016-2017 fiscal year
Proposition 47, approved overwhelmingly by California voters in 2014 and which reduces the penalty for six low-level, nonviolent crimes from a felony to a misdemeanor, has already successfully reduced the populations of prisons and jails around the state and provided people second chances in their lives by allowing them to reduce old felony convictions on their criminal records to misdemeanors. The 2016-2017 budget adopted by the state legislature and signed by Gov. Jerry Brown shows Prop. 47 is also making good on its promise to save tens of millions of dollars annually that will be reallocated to community-based crime prevention programs. Included in the budget is nearly $68 million in funding for Proposition 47 investment programs, including drug and alcohol rehabilitation, mental health treatment, trauma recovery services for victims of crime and truancy and dropout prevention programs for at-risk schoolchildren. | <urn:uuid:97596940-f48e-4c45-a044-b42eadb52554> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://safeandjust.org/policies/2016-session-overview/ | 2019-11-19T03:24:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496669967.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20191119015704-20191119043704-00337.warc.gz | en | 0.941299 | 770 |

American National Biography
"Over 10 years in the making, American National Biography is a fascinating study of the people who have shaped the United States. Why replace the Dictionary of American Biography instead of merely updating it through supplements? Because the editors include new scholarship and people who were missed in the original, especially women and ethnic minorities. Numbering 24 volumes and containing 17,500 entries, the work offers readable, informative, and critical biographies for each subject, the location of their papers (if they exist), and selective bibliographies. Excellent indexes--subject, contributor, place of birth, and occupation--enhance use. This is an outstanding set that will be heavily consulted for many years to come."--"Outstanding reference sources 2000", American Libraries, May 2000.

A friend of mine says that he likes to play female characters because if he is going to play a game for hours on end he would rather look at a females ass. It makes sense. From a male standpoint at least.
That is not the reason for my statement that I might change the sex of all my characters to females however. I rarely even look at my character enough to notice their ass. Unless it is my bear, bears have asses you really can't miss even if you try.
It is just the sense that people are so much nicer to, and around, female characters. They do not need to know if you are a female for real or not. Just the avatar needs to be female and you get treated better for the most part.
Sure, I do rarely get a rude message on my female characters asking me if I have nude pictures or asking me to dance for them so they can... you know. I just ignore those. Some guys are pond scum and there is nothing you can do about that. Just ignore them and move on. Really, why do some guys whisper someone they never spoke to with the first words out of their mouth being something like that?
When using the random dungeon system being a female is almost like having a free pass to screw up, within reason of course. A real screw up will get crap either way but if you make a mistake here and there as a female character I noticed that people are more willing to let it go.
On my male warrior if I screw up a pull there is a 50/50 chance that someone will call me a fail tank or something not as nice with lots of words that my filter will remove for me. If I screw up on a pull with my female druid I have never, repeat, never had anyone insult me or be rude to me. Perhaps a joke here or there like, I don't think that went how you expected to which I would reply, no, not exactly.
Mind you, that is just for one screw up here or there. If I keep screwing up I am sure even my bear would get her giant butt kicked to the curb.
As a female healer it is really easy to take full control of a group. On my shaman I was in a group that had three wipes in a row in ZA and someone blamed me each time.
I hate when people yell healer. If you are going to call me out use my name. Just calling healer is for quick conversation, if you are calling me out, know who I am. I stated what happened, did not point out who's fault it really was, and said don't worry, I can heal this, it was just a blip.
He tried to vote kick me, it failed so he left, most likely in a nerd rage, we got a new DPS, we downed the boss. See, the thing is the tank was not getting adds on the dragon hawk guy and they kept coming right for me and eating me. Nothing I can do, we wipe when the healer dies, heck, I stood on the tank and he still did not take the adds off me. It is not the healers fault they died in that case, it is the tanks fault they died.
Perhaps the people in the group noticed that and that is why they did not kick me or perhaps it was the fact I was on a female character, either way, I did not get kicked, we got a hunter who MDed the adds that all came to me to the tank and the fight was no problem on the next try. See, hunters rule even when I am not on mine. All fights are 100 times easier with a hunter.
Now replace my male troll shaman in the same type of situation. No matter what I say I am a fail healer and I get kicked. Even if I sold the tank out and said the tank did not grab the adds and they killed me and that was the problem, not my healing (which has happened on a different boss). While it would be true, I am gone. Kicked because I am a male healer even if it was the tanks fault.
Same goes for DPS classes as well. I've been called out for horrible DPS on my male rogue more times then I can remember. Apparently 9K in a normal heroic is horrible. Sure, I can do better but it is not horrible for a normal heroic where if everyone is doing 8K all bosses are easy.
While on my other characters I have seen female avatars pulling 4K and 5K in heroics. Seen female avatars pulling 6K in zuls. No one ever says a word. It is on the rarest of rare occasions someone will mention a female avatars horrible DPS.
Over all the experiences are completely different running as a male or female.
When I enter a dungeon I say hello at the start and thanks for the run at the end. If that is all that is ever said it is fine with me. I am not much of a talker, I would rather play. However, it is nice to see people reply. When on a male character when I say hello I can usually hear crickets. On a female character if I say hello more often then not everyone will say hello back. Wow, people become civil just because there is a female avatar around.
On a male character if there is a wipe in an all male group it always turns into an insult fest between people blaming each other. If I am on a female character I rarely see that happen. I've even seen people say, so what can we do different and what went wrong. Oh my god. People are working things out and learning from their experience. This almost never happens on a male character in an all male group.
On a male character I have lost a main spec role on an item I needed to someone that needed for offspec. I mentioned I need that for my main spec and they said suck it up. Rude for sure, but the rest of the group agreed. Fine, I do not play that way but it seems others do. On my shaman I lost a role on an item and someone immediately said that I had needed it for main spec. I did not even say anything. The others said they should give it to me. The tank refused to go further until the person gave it to me. He gave it to me and apologized because he did not notice I had needed it. See, more civility.
I've been in groups with people rolling need on things they should not have because everyone else rolled greed and someone says something about it and it is always the same. If it is a male that speaks up they usually get the suck it up comment and if it is a female that says it they say, sorry, it was a misclick we can reroll. Amazing how the presence of even a female avatar changes the way people act isn't it?
It is not like I want a free pass, so to speak. I do not want to get away with horrible tanking or healing or DPS. I just want civility to me and to those around me.
As odd as it sounds, when someone insults someone else in my group I get offended. I personally think there is no reason for rude talk and behavior just because you have the anonymity of the internet to hide behind. Just having a female there seems to sooth the savage beast that is most teenage boys.
If spending a few dollars will limit most of the mindless dribble I have to deal with in randoms it would be money well spent.
I don't agree with people pretending to be female but there is a huge difference between pretending to be female (usually to get stuff from teenage boys or get carried in raids) and just having a female avatar.
My friend might do it because female characters have more attractive hind ends but I would do it because everyone around you seem to be more respectful on an average basis when you are on a female character. I don't know about you, but I enjoy the game a lot more when people are not being rude to each other and insulting each other.
From my experiences in this game, azeroth seems to be a more civil world when you run around as a female. Perhaps others might have a different experience they know of, but for me I noticed it and it is not small, it is a huge difference.
I probably won't do it, it is a waste of money, but from now on I will only be rolling female characters when I start new. Ignoring the rare jerk is easy. Finding civil people in randoms is hard, if you are not a female (avatar) that is.
Like it or not being a female avatar changes the way people act around you. That is not an opinion, that is a fact. I will never try to pass myself off as a female, that is wrong, but I won't mind letting people think I am if it makes the game more civil for me and those around me.

Tracking sales (Access 97)
(Subject edited by HansV to be more descriptive than 'Access')
(Thanks very much! Tabitha)
I am trying to modify an existing database so that I can track how much of what product a customer has bought. I tryed to do this with a Wizard which created a "Sales" type database, but I don't understand how it works, so I can't change it to do what I want. Either I need to copy something someone else has made, or I need a step-by-step tutorial that addresses this issue.
The product list numbers about 40 and products are continually being added, and retired. We give 10 free to a department of certain things, and then start charging, but I have to track the inital 10 items.
Any and all help greatfully received.

Re: Tracking sales (Access 97)
The basic design of this database would require 3 tables. A Customer table, a Product table, and a Sales table.
The Customer table would have CustomerID, CustomerName, etc.
The Product table would have ProductID, ProductName, etc.
The Sales table would have CustomerID, ProductID, etc.
The Sales table is the "many" table in 2 one-to-many relationships, with both the Customer and Product tables. Therefore, to specify a Sale record, you need to know the Customer and the Product.
If you have a form for Customer entry, you can add a subform based on the Sales table. This would show you all sales to that Customer. | <urn:uuid:d9fe0d52-f3c2-4942-84d7-a8e827f6c972> | CC-MAIN-2016-50 | http://windowssecrets.com/forums/showthread.php/55856-Tracking-sales-%28Access-97%29 | 2016-12-05T00:34:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-50/segments/1480698541517.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20161202170901-00505-ip-10-31-129-80.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.916883 | 418 |
Lately food trucks pop up all over the Bay Area; former roach coaches are the new gourmet dining spots. But this is the first vintage Airstream trailer food truck I’ve seen and it doesn’t travel. It’s set up on blocks inside Flowerland Nursery on Solano Avenue in Albany (California–next door to Berkeley) and run by Local 123 Cafe.
I can’t think of a better place to enjoy a good cup of coffee than in a lovely garden. The lovely folks at Flowerland Nursery put interesting chairs and tables throughout the nursery, turning the whole place into a sort of garden café. You can get your coffee and then sit among the palms, the native plants, fruit trees or climbing vines to enjoy it.
And when you finish your coffee, you can take home the chair you sat on or the plant you sat beside (for a price of course). | <urn:uuid:e4ddb983-ac2f-4478-9cfd-746d2aab1785> | CC-MAIN-2017-34 | https://janabouc.com/2012/12/17/airstream-trailer-coffee-kiosk-at-flowerland-nursery/ | 2017-08-19T16:43:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-34/segments/1502886105700.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20170819162833-20170819182833-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.920768 | 190 |
LAHORE, Feb 12 (APP):Numerous overseas cricketers have reasserted their credentials by featuring in the HBL Pakistan Super League with Luke Ronchi, player of the tournament in 2018, being the prime example.
While the coming HBL PSL is a chance to shine for many budding cricketers of Pakistan, it is also an opportunity for the visiting players to prove their worth and take their T20 careers to greater heights, according to an analysis conducted here on Tuesday.
There are some the players who will be aiming to play a bigger role in the HBL PSL.
Philip Salt (Islamabad United), The 22-year-old is a wicketkeeper/batsman from Wales who plays county cricket for Sussex. Salt was Islamabad United’s third pick in this season’s HBL PSL Player Draft mainly because of his ability to score at a brisk pace.
In England’s domestic T20 competition last year, the Welshman scored 355 runs at a stunning strike-rate of 172.33 and also hit four half-centuries. He also played three T20s for Lahore Qalandars in Abu Dhabi T20 Trophy last year in October in which his scores, while batting in the lower-order, were 37 not out, 15 and 26.
Salt has also opened the innings for Sussex and, if he does same in HBL PSL 2019, United could have the most destructive opening pair in the tournament.
Liam Livingstone (Karachi Kings), The 25-year-old captained Lancashire to the semi-final round in England’s domestic T20 competition last year, but the most glaring aspect of his performance in the tournament was his batting strike-rate. He scored 318 runs at a strike-rate of 188.16, the third highest in the competition, and also scored a 51-ball 100 against Derbyshire.
The Lancastrian was picked by Karachi Kings as one of the supplementary players, but will be available for the whole tournament.
In his most recent T20 match, he handed England Lions a win against Pakistan A in Abu Dhabi. Opening the bowling with his leg-spin, Livingstone took three top-order wickets and also scored 35 not out off 19 balls.
Sandeep Lamichhane (Lahore Qalandars), The Nepalese spin wizard will be the only player from the ICC’s associate teams in the HBL PSL 2019. Such is his demand in franchise cricket that even though he made his T20 debut only 10 months ago, Lahore Qalandars will be his sixth team in the T20 leagues.
In the ongoing league in Australia, the 18-year-old has taken 11 wickets for Melbourne Stars at an average of 13.45 and an economy of just 6.83. The Qalandars will be hoping he carries this form to HBL PSL.
Since he will be playing alongside Yasir Shah, the Qalandars could have the best leg-spinning pair in HBL PSL 2019.
Laurie Evans (Multan Sultans), The 31-year-old batsman from England will feature in the HBL PSL for the first time after he was picked by Multan Sultans in the silver category.
Evans was the top run-getter in England’s domestic T20 competition with 614 runs at an average of 68.22 and a strike rate of 135.84. That helped Sussex to reach the final of the tournament.
In the past 12 months, he has scored 1,258 runs at 54.69 in T20 cricket. And as recently as last month, while playing in Bangladesh Premier League, he hit his maiden T20 century.
With Steve Smith and Nicholas Pooran not available, the Sultans will be banking on his batting expertise in the coming HBL PSL. | <urn:uuid:9fdbd946-9668-495c-b7cb-a45fe39416dc> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://www.app.com.pk/lamichhane-one-of-foreign-debutantes-to-watch-out-for-in-hbl-psl/ | 2019-07-20T21:58:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195526714.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20190720214645-20190721000645-00315.warc.gz | en | 0.976519 | 817 |

Quote:So since there is an invisible emotional spectrum of lantern corps (gag) I'm guessing we're going to have:
Radio Wave Corps
Gamma Ray Corps (Marvel will sue)
Apparently, the Ultraviolet would come from the Dark Multiverse.
There would be Seven Dark Multiverse Forces which would be the opposite of the main concepts of the Multivere :
- The "Ultraviolet" as the opposite of the Emotional Spectrum
- the "Still" Force as the opposite of the Speed Force
- Five other concepts which will be revealed later.
IMO, the idea has already been used with Qward and Earth-3 ...
There was no need to create a Dark Multiverse. :-I

Sanderson Weatherall has sold the former premises of two failed firms to new occupiers in deals totalling £1m.
Industrial premises and offices spanning 13,700 sq ft at Manchester Road West, Little Hulton, Greater Manchester, have been bought by Bolton-based polythene sheeting supplier Frank Mercer and Son.
The premises were sold on behalf of Begbies Traynor, joint liquidator of Henderson Engineering, for £180,000.
In the second deal, a 35,436 sq ft unit on Marshfield Bank Industrial Estate in Crewe was bought for £800,000 by non-food catering equipment supplier Alliance Disposables. The unit was sold on behalf of Grant Thornton, administrator for K&M Industrial Developments.
Rory Dillon, senior surveyor, asset advisory and recovery at the North West office of Sanderson Weatherall in Manchester, secured the sales. He said: "We are encouraged by securing these sales, which go to show that successful, well run, owner occupier businesses are expanding their operations and providing further jobs in the current market." | <urn:uuid:e1fc9bfc-ea62-4e20-888c-c2a9b5258353> | CC-MAIN-2020-45 | https://www.placenorthwest.co.uk/news/sanderson-sells-industrial-sites-for-administrators/ | 2020-10-22T00:36:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107878662.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20201021235030-20201022025030-00515.warc.gz | en | 0.956179 | 223 |
Phoenix Islands Protected Area
Entering the Phoenix Islands
in a post El Nino sea
The Pacific Ocean is a large place. Spin the globe away from the familiar scenes of continents and try to get a sense of how big the Pacific Ocean really is…. It’s huge. Now, imagine sailing it – truly, with sails, no power, and no internet. No Pokemon Go. No morning news. No one and nothing but the ship you are on, and your fellow shipmates.
The other side of the globe – all ocean, all Pacific.
The SSV Robert C Seamans – owned by SEA, at sea!
On July 3, students and staff from Sea Education Association (SEA) aboard the SSV Robert C. Seaman set sail for the Phoenix Islands Protected Area from Honolulu, HI. This is their third year going. Each year, they bring students and help to conduct some critically important science on the physical, chemical, and biological oceanography of the region in collaboration with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and us (the New England Aquarium – NEAq). This year, there is one WHOI student, and two NEAq folks aboard to help with the science. Nick Pioppi (NEAq staff from Visitor Education) and Adrienne Breef-Pilz (an NEAq research intern in the Rotjan Lab) are on the expedition in order to complete some work that we started on the last expedition (last September). They will be diving to take photos and photoquadrats to assess the damage from the 2015-16 El Nino, which is the worst yet on record in human history. This is partly funded by the Prince Albert of Monaco II Foundation.
For those of you who don’t know me, I am the co-Chair of the PIPA Scientific Advisory Committee, and the Chief Scientist for the Phoenix Islands Protected Area Conservation Trust. It’s part of my job to help run and coordinate these expeditions, and to relay the science back to the Kiribati Government, who owns and manages PIPA.
This is a unique opportunity to do wok across expeditions – we are now crossing expedition platforms to complete work in a coordinated way, which is very exciting. Work that was started last year on the Hanse Explorer (a scuba-enabled ship) is now being check in on by the Seamans (an oceanographic vessel).
I help to coordinate these missions with satellite communications, and direct the reef-related science onboard the Seamans. The cross-links between expeditions and institutions is articulated in a recent letter here: SEA Rotjan letter
Among other trip objectives, Nick, Adrienne and Chrissy (Christina Hernandez is a WHOI student) will be working on a project with larval tuna. This project is a collaborative effort between Drs. Jan Witting, Joel Llopiz, Simon Thorrold, and myself, funded by the PIPA Trust, to assess the presence and population of larval tuna within and outside of PIPA waters. Since PIPA fully closed fishing in Jan 1 2015, there are no data available on tuna stocks.
Fishing stops in PIPA as of January 1 2015
Christina, Adrienne, and Nick will be identifying fish larvae to species, aging them, and mapping their location to determine whether larvae are more associated with oceanographic vs. bathymetric features, which is a novel study that will help us to predict spawning patterns.
Most importantly, this trip is aimed at assessing the oceanography – which is an objective spearheaded by SEA, and of which this is year 3 in the series. Year 1 had ENSO neutral conditions (ENSO = El Nino Southern Oscillation), Year 2 was one of the worst El Ninos in history, and now (Year 3) is a La Nina Year. We are all excited to see how the oceanographic conditions within PIPA have changed, and what that means for the biology.
After all, oceanographic temperature, salinity, pH, and nutrients impact the oceanic food chain. See these beautiful plankton and diatoms? They fuel the entire chain – without them, no tuna. No sharks. Plankton are important unsung heroes of the ocean.
So sail with us as we try to understand the changing ocean, the changing conservation landscape, and the importance and meaning of current conditions in the Phoenix Islands Protected Area. And best part: if you’re reading this at home, you’re not seasick. 🙂

I've been hearing so much about the new M&Ms Snack Mix. The combination of M&Ms, pretzels, almonds and raisins sounded really good, so I picked some up last week while it was on sale. The snack mix itself was good, but I won't be getting it again to eat on its own. I made these granola bars and some blondies that I'll share with you later this week. These granola bars were fantastic. I had them for a morning snack every day last week and only had half of my lunch each day since these filled me up.Ingredients
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup snack mix
Spray a 8x8 pan with cooking spray.
In a large sauce pan, add butter, brown sugar, and peanut butter. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mixture begins to boil.
Stir in the oats and snack mix. Pour into the prepared pan and press down the mixture.
Refrigerate the bars for one hour. Cut into eight bars.

What an excellent place to go for Greek food. My husband picked the place for our last night in Palm Desert. Our waitress, Karen, was so very helpful and attentive. We had the pita bread with the assorted spreads - my favorite was the garlic spread. We wanted to eat light, so had 2 appetizers - the saganaki & the ouzo prawns. The prawns were absolutely wonderful. So then I couldn't resist having a dessert. We picked the bougatsa which Karen recommended. Wow it was good! Both had a Greek house wine ( reasonably priced). Wish we lived closer so we could go back soon. | <urn:uuid:416bbb9f-34e6-46d4-afba-3e6758cde527> | CC-MAIN-2018-39 | https://www.tripadvisor.in/ShowUserReviews-g32846-d8549564-r579529144-Koutouki_Greek_Estiatorio-Palm_Desert_Greater_Palm_Springs_California.html | 2018-09-24T23:16:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-39/segments/1537267160842.79/warc/CC-MAIN-20180924224739-20180925005139-00278.warc.gz | en | 0.986111 | 133 |

Currently, based on information found online, the session expiration is 30 days.
Is there a way to make sessions only last for 1 day?
any idea on how to accomplish this?

Twenty-two days from now the MCS Case Definition Workshop opens. With luck, it will result in a new definition for Multiple Chemical Sensitivity that will get world-wide acceptance. With doctors or researchers from 7 foreign countries coming — Australia, Canada, Scotland, Germany, Spain, Italy (which just won the World Cup), and Japan — the workshop has a real world-spanning flavor.
Things are bound to get more and more nuts leading up to the workshop. Adios. | <urn:uuid:3c3685b8-74f3-4d04-a1bc-e1a66cf85c42> | CC-MAIN-2019-04 | http://toxtalk.blogspot.com/2006/07/ | 2019-01-21T05:51:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-04/segments/1547583763149.45/warc/CC-MAIN-20190121050026-20190121072026-00287.warc.gz | en | 0.902097 | 99 |
They did it. In one night, they put all that 1994 crap to rest. It’s done, we move on and the Rangers go home. We want the cup, there is no questioning that and we will focus on that tomorrow but for one night, we will take joy in knowing we sent the Rangers home. Rangers fans wanted to bring up 1994 over and over again. Well enjoy Rangers fan, 1994 is all you have!!
The Devils got out to a quick 2-0 started but once again, for the 5th time this season we blew a 2 goal lead. Give NJ credit, they battled through it, battle against a team that played a very good game and found a way to win. Carter opened the scoring by pouncing on a puck in the crease and the Kovy blew a puck right by Lundqvist on the PP. Give Lundqvist some credit though, he had to go post to post to try and stop it and Kovy just blew it right by him. In OT, it was Henrique, who sent Florida home in Round 1. What a game!!!
Enjoy Devils fans, we have a few days to celebrate before we get down to business again. | <urn:uuid:faa58fc5-0e80-4d21-9452-42ed194bceeb> | CC-MAIN-2016-44 | http://thesportsdaily.com/running-with-the-devils/ecf-game-6-devils-win/ | 2016-10-27T20:33:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-44/segments/1476988721392.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20161020183841-00503-ip-10-171-6-4.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.978947 | 245 |
A man and two teenagers are accused in a string of Tishomingo car burglaries last week.
Twenty-year-old Cory Armstrong is facing burglary, shoplifting and vandalism charges after a crime spree Friday night.
Police say Armstrong and two 16-year-olds stole stereos, speakers and amps from at least five cars on north Bird Street, and then slashed the tires.
After talking with other officers, they were able to link him to a shoplifting case at E-Z Mart. The clerk says he came in, stole a 30-pack of beer, and then took off.
The other two suspects have been turned over to the officer of juvenile affairs. | <urn:uuid:d77152ae-58d9-4870-9608-9f42988984c7> | CC-MAIN-2016-44 | http://www.kxii.com/home/headlines/3946121.html | 2016-10-23T22:10:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-44/segments/1476988719437.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20161020183839-00439-ip-10-171-6-4.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.979463 | 139 |

On Jackels walkthrough for "A Vintage year', it said after killing the target and upon escape it said "Then afterwards all you have to do is get back to the wine cellar and take the elevator down to the hanger and escape, the elite guards disguise will keep you safe from detection. I wouldn't recommend this way though, and you don't get the extra five grand for suit retrieval." Suit retrieval? What does he mean? So, you not get a 5 grand bonus if you use the Elite Guards unirorm? Do anyone know? Sorry, I'm a Hitman newbie (as you know).
