With iOS 6 out the door, Apple gives its set-top box a minor software update that adds new features, including one aimed at multi-user households.
Apple quietly updated software for its second- and third-generation Apple TV set-top boxes today to make it work with iOS 6 features.
The new version of the software, dubbed iOS 5.1 (though not the same 5.1 iPhone, iPod, and iPad users got earlier this year), adds things like shared Photo Streams, search, and showtimes for local theaters through the trailers app, and a way to reorder the icons on the home screen (something that leaked out a few months ago in a developer build).
However chief among the items of interest is a way to switch iTunes accounts, providing a way for multiple user households to access differing content libraries on the same box. This is something Apple has not offered on its portable devices, and its addition suggests the feature could be headed there eventually.
The Apple TV has remained what Apple considers a "hobby" device when compared with the sales and popularity of products like the iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Nonetheless, the company has pointed to increasing sales in recent earnings calls, with CEO Tim Cook dropping the notion that even though it's not a blockbuster, the company didn't keep around products it didn't like.
Apple, of course has long been rumored to be working on a TV set, a rumor that's rooted in some fact. Late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs told biographer Walter Isaacson that he wanted "to create an integrated television set that is completely easy to use" and that he "finally cracked it." Since then there has been no shortage of rumors that suggest Apple is still at work on such a product. | 2019-04-22T23:08:28 | https://www.cnet.com/news/apple-tv-update-hints-at-ios-multi-user-accounts/ |

Home News Paris back-to-school guide.
The Ville de Paris has produced a free guide for parents of nursery to high school students, available at schools across the French capital or on the city council website. Entitled Elve Paris 2006/2007, de la maternelle au lyce, the dossier provides information on everything from how to enrol your child at school to extra-curricular activities and from school meals to social integration. This year the capital has four new schools and 42 new classrooms (23 of which are in nursery schools), while 1,800 renovation projects involving existing buildings have been completed. The city council is investing ten per cent of its total investment budget in education between 2004-2007. | 2019-04-24T14:21:21 | https://www.wantedineurope.com/news/paris-back-to-school-guide.html |

Paris, one of Gujarat's leading Indian Ethnic wear brand for women was looking to create awareness on the launch of its new much larger store in Surat, Gujarat.
Female shoppers living in close proximity to the new Paris store, in Surat.
Reaching out to such a niche audience set was a major challenge for Paris.
We leveraged Vserv Authentic Data to derive deterministic data on this niche audience set. We then segmented this user base, on attributes such as demographics and location and created a unique user persona called 'local shoppers'.
Leveraging on this unique audience set, we used mobile messaging to target these users. We created a unique image and video message informing this audience set about the opening of Paris' new store. The video message also contained information about discounts on a range of Indian ethnic wear, instigating users to personally check out the store.
The image and video message campaign was a tremendous success, reaching over 6 lakh shoppers in that particular area of Surat city. With Vserv Authentic Data, we were able to remove audience spillage and increase the marketing efficiency of the campaign. | 2019-04-25T12:47:29 | https://www.vserv.com/local-success-story-paris-reaches-6-lakh-local-shoppers-surat/ |
I stepped into the room and did a quick scan. It was absolutely packed.
To the left, several Facebook engineers were huddled in deep discussion. To the right, a group of coders hacking away intently on laptops. Deeper in the noisy room I spotted an ex-colleague from Cisco, chatting with a well-known VC. I had heard earlier that he was considering leaving Cisco and this was probably one of many meetings he was having on his way to a new startup.
I edged my way carefully through the crowded room to my friend’s table.
“This place is jamming today,” he said. I ran into two guys from my last startup and they have an interesting idea in the security space. We should stop by and say ‘hi’ on the way out”.
Was this a tech conference? Demo-day event? Startup accelerator? It could have been any of those places, but this time I was at Coupa café in Palo Alto.
Coupa café represents the heart and soul of Silicon Valley. More value has been created at Coupa – and other places like it – than can possibly be imagined. Deals and term sheets have been done, serial interviews completed over multiple cups of coffee, introductions to friends and friends-of-friends, a constant stream of ‘hello’, exchange of contacts, and catching-up on new directions. Coupa makes the world feel like two degrees of separation.
Coffee shops are great places for networking – and constant networking is the lifeblood of Silicon Valley. It is a distinct attribute that stands it apart from the rest of the world.
Ah. But that is point: to meet in these noisy, crowded, energetic places, complete with the occasional interruption. Coffee shops are about spontaneity, randomness and serendipity; places where unexpected ideas, insights and innovation run wild. I’ll wager some of our most valuable, life-changing events began with such random encounters. Networking (like crazy) opens oneself to new encounters and new possibilities.
Networking is sitting next to a stranger at your child’s soccer game, starting up a friendly conversation, being introduced to his/her friend-of-a-friend’s startup – and investing in it (I’ve done this – twice). Networking is reaching out to an old colleague and inviting them for coffee for no other reason than to see what you’re both working on. Networking inspires equally familiar and completely new ideas.
Networking is also about opening up and sharing. Good ideas shared and with smart people quickly turn into great ones. However this does require letting go of the belief that a great idea is some type of competitive advantage. Not true. The real competitive advantage is the ability to execute that idea, to build and motivate a team around it, to develop customer traction and to create a profitable, scalable business.
Coupa café happens to be one of my favorite networking places. However Silicon Valley has many, many other places like it: unique, packed, noisy, interesting places where smart, innovative, passionate people meet. Where ideas and visions are explored; where success and failure are shared openly.
Back to the meeting that morning… As we were getting ready to leave, someone was settling into a coveted spot at the table next to us. He glanced our way and suddenly said, “Hi Chris, long time no see!”. He was a blogger at a very well known internet site; one of the ‘super-connectors’ with unusually high leverage in the online world.
I chatted with him briefly and then (most importantly) introduced my friend, who was working on his next startup (note to entrepreneurs: my friend was about to meet someone who could bring thousands of eyeballs to his company’s home page, with one stroke of the keyboard – from a random meeting at a coffee shop).
“Nice to meet you” the super-connector said. “I’m curious to hear about your new idea. Got a minute…?”.
I smiled as I left the café, leaving the two of them to talk. Serendipity.
In closing, whether you are an entrepreneur in Buenos Aires, Beijing or Barcelona, can you name the places where everyone meets? Do you know where your local startup ‘world’ gathers and chats over a coffee, tea, lunch or dinner? Where ideas are shared, connections made and teams created?
If you don’t have these, go out and start one. Pick a great spot. Make sure the coffee/tea/food is awesome and the place has a special feeling. Start to have as many meetings as possible there. Let word start to travel that this is the place to meet, network and connect. Let chance and serendipity take over. | 2019-04-21T06:33:09 | https://generationsiliconvalley.com/2012/10/ |
Just getting this one in under the wire for Strokes March Madness month.
Back in the early 2000s, The Strokes had a paid fan club that you could join and receive mailed newsletters from the band.
Here’s the “ace” of a cover of the fourth newsletter from Winter 2003.
Love the slogan, “Forget What You Heard”!
Do you know what the newsletter said? This is the first time I have heard about them sending out a newsletter and it’d be really interesting to see what they talked about inside (especially since the cover is so grand).
I’ll have to take a look — I actually have this newsletter. All of the Alone, Together mailings were just anecdotes from the tour, random musings, drawings, and photos from recent shows. | 2019-04-19T00:44:34 | http://www.themodernage.org/2011/03/12/march-madness-alone-together-issue-4/ |

A 26-year old Michigan woman who was officially declared brain dead following two fatal brain aneurysms, gave birth to twins a few weeks later.
The twins, Alexander and Nicholas, although premature, were delivered by means of Caesarean section and weigh around 1 lb 4 oz and 1 lb and 9 oz respectively, mlive.com reported.
Christine Bolden was reportedly hale and hearty when in March she suddenly suffered from a terrible headache and collapsed. Upon investigation, it was found that two aneurysms that were hidden from birth had burst open.
"It was a hurting feeling. Going [to the hospital] seeing her lying there. We used to rub on her belly and talk to the babies," her aunt Danielle Bolden told 24 Hours News 8.
"God, he could have taken her and the boys," said Danielle. "But he left the boys. That's a miracle."
Although the doctors hoped that she would be able to carry the twins for the complete duration, her pressure became too high to keep the babies safely.
"I can't wait to be able to touch them and pick them up and tell them all about their mother and give them so much love," Vance Terrell, Christine's brother, told mlive.com. "They're so precious."
Even after Christine was officially declared brain dead, her family never gave up hope thinking that she would somehow survive to see her little boys. They started the grieving process by making T-shirts in memory of Christine's passing and even printed an official obituary.
This is not the first time that a woman in coma has given birth. According to the Huffington Post, in 2001, a woman, Chastity Cooper, was able to carry her baby to full-term after falling into a coma following a car accident. She was only two weeks pregnant at the time of the accident.
Hospital officials say that Christine's newborn twins are in a fragile condition and that they are keeping a careful eye on the boys. | 2019-04-22T15:35:34 | https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/woman-declared-officially-brain-dead-miraculously-gives-331729 |

1 cup of turnips that have been boiled, drained and cooked with salt contain 34 calories and weigh 156 grams. These turnips are quite nutritious and this is the reason why they have been given A nutrition grade. Out of the 34 calories, 19% of the calories come from sodium, 3% of the calories come from total carbohydrates and 12% of the calories come from the dietary fiber content present in boiled turnips. There are many good points about these turnips. Some of them are that they are very low in the saturated fat content, they have no cholesterol, the amount of dietary fiber present in boiled turnips is very high, there is a large amount of magnesium and manganese in these turnips, the amount of vitamin B6 is also very high and the amount of vitamin C is quite large as well. But the fact that boiled and cooked turnips have high amount of sodium and sugar is a negative thing about them.
Frozen, boiled and cooked turnips too have been given A nutrition grade and 1 cup of these turnips contains 33 calories. these turnips too have high dietary fiber, magnesium, manganese, iron, phosphorus, potassium and thiamin. The high amount of vitamin C and low saturated fat is another good point about them. | 2019-04-24T08:48:31 | http://howmanycaloriescounter.com/how-many-calories-in-boiled-turnips.html |
A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages. Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his.
Two and a half years ago I left the corporate programming world to work full-time on my own software business. It’s gone well and I have no regrets, but sometimes it’s been tough – the most challenging times have often involved being socially isolated. I don’t talk to another soul most days of the week, something which took getting used to.
Being isolated for long periods of time creates a perspective that is difficult, if not impossible to arrive at in standard employment where one regularly interacts with those who have bought into the ethos of modern culture.
What follows are some ways to increase life satisfaction in this culture.
Feel trapped in your current job? Career hit a dead-end? Or maybe you’re just sick of the corporate grind all-together.
Many people feel this way. The problem is that most think this is “just the way it is” and that’s that.
I’m here to strongly proclaim that the nonsensical existence many of us lead is neither the way it could be, nor is it even “natural” in terms of the evolutionary path our ancestors traversed.
I firmly believe you can change your life situation to be much more in line with your natural tendencies. A life of meaningful work inline with your inborn talents. Spending your time doing the activities you value. In other words being “The Real You”.
All that’s required is patience, discipline and a bit of knowledge.
For those that have who have found it difficult to proceed along the path of their calling, there isn’t a better book than The War of Art by Steven Pressfield. Although geared toward authors, I consider this an essential read for anyone attempting to create something of their own that they feel is true to themselves, outside the guidance of a boss or other figure we typically rely on to keep us on track.
This book as highly complementary to Beyond Success and Failure which is all about self-reliance by breaking free of your child-like dependencies. If you’re ever going to live up to your true potential you’re going to have to quit paying attention to outside forces and summon the bravery to undertake your true calling.

What follow are my personal notes and direct quotes from the amazing book Beyond Success and Failure: Ways to Self-Reliance and Maturity. I read quite a few books each year and along the way I do lots of highlighting and typically write notes into a Google Document.
This time around I figured that it would be better to just put the notes on Taming Life since others may find this information valuable.
Overview: The book helps people who are depressed, anxious, nervous, etc overcome these tendencies and become more self-reliant. Much of what causes unhappiness is firmly rooted in childhood patterns people carry with them into adulthood. These tendencies can be overcome with a combination of awareness and hard work.
Want To Be Happier? Depend On Yourself More.
Every once in a while I come across a book that blows me away and completely shifts my point of view. One such book is Beyond Success and Failure: Ways to Self-Reliance and Maturity.
The book discusses problems that are at the root of a lot of unhappiness in our daily lives and offers solutions for overcoming these problems.
What I find particularly interesting is how much of the book’s information was foreign to me even though I’ve read a lot of self-help books over the past couple of decades. The book was originally published in 1966 and appears to be another example of modern culture forgetting the wisdom our grandparents once possessed.
What follows are valuable lessons from the book and a few observations I’ve made. Note that in addition to this article I’ve posted lots of valuable quotes from the book.

Modern life is busy. Insanely busy.
However, much of the craziness is self-imposed. Or at we least passively allow it to continue.
Turn off the TV. Don’t check Facebook. Turn off email notifications. Check emails and texts every few hours instead of constantly. Delay responding to people. Cut back on the junk surfing. Quit reacting.
Quit consuming for a one damn minute.
What’s that sound? It’s the sound of silence. Foreign isn’t it?
It’s even a little disconcerting.
Does the thought of being out of the loop make you nervous? Good. That means you’re addicted to the madness. And addicts aren’t in control of their lives, they just live for the next hit.
Don’t give outside forces the reigns then complain about how things turn out.
Step up to the plate and take back your life.
It’s easy to avoid taking risks and get lulled into a sense of comfort for long periods of time.
Being risk averse and always trying to stay ‘comfortable’ is a prescription for boredom, depression and fragility. It ensures you’ll live in an ever-shrinking box.
This picture from Feel the Fear…And Do It Anyway sums up the concept beautifully.
Start taking small risks and intentionally push against the boundaries of your comfort zone. Then do it again. And again. Eventually you’ll notice your comfort zone expand as habituation takes hold.
And then you’ll notice the quality of your life improve.
Later on you may actually become addicted to taking risks, which is a hell of a lot better way to live than cowering in a shrinking box.
Almost everyone in modern life has some degree of stress and worry. In recent months, I’ve discovered the philosophy of ‘Stoicism’ and it offers an amazingly helpful technique for dealing with the troubles of modern life. | 2019-04-23T08:09:54 | https://taminglife.com/ |

I’ve been trying to slim down before our big trip to Disney World this November and I gotta tell ya, its been ROUGH. I’m not one of those people that “forgets to eat” or when they’re stressed, stops eating. I’m the complete opposite. My day is basically distracting myself until its time to eat again and/or shotgunning hidden chocolate because my kids are driving me batty.
These cups are filled with apples, oatmeal, and chia seeds! There are also other flavors including pear and maple and peach cinnamon spice. The box says you can enjoy them hot or cold, but I decided it would be nice to have a warm dessert! I popped it in the microwave for 45 seconds and voila!
The first bite I took wasn’t that great. In fact, I *almost* threw it away. But then I stirred it up and plopped a tablespoon of fat free whipped cream on top and it was AMAZING! Now, I will say that this isn’t the *healthiest* of treats–there’s quite a bit of sugar in it and there’s not a ton of protein. BUT, if you’d like to have this rather than a hot fudge sundae, its definitely the healthier of the two!
Have you tried these? What did you think? Share in the comments below!
Trying to eat healthy and lose weight can be such a drag sometimes. You can only eat kale and chia seeds for so long, am I right? And when you’re trying to up your protein intake but want something that’s NOT jerky? Ugh, fuggetaboutit. Thankfully, I found something yummy that will also help me hit my protein goals!
I paired mine with a Chick-Fil-A Chicken Club sandwich (sans bun) and it was the PERFECT meal!
Out of the three flavors I have tried, the nacho cheese are my favorite, but that’s because they tasted fairly close to Doritos!

Doing this whole low carb/Keto thing can be tough sometimes, especially when you’re looking for fast snacks. Thankfully, I searched around and actually found some snacks that are LC/K-friendly!
First up are these awesome little packets of protein-packed nut butter from Wildfriends!
These would be great with celery sticks, but honestly, they’re tasty by themselves and are a great post-workout snack! The vanilla almond butter has 10 grams of protein in a serving and the chocolate peanut butter packs 12 grams of protein! Great for hitting your macros and they’re tasty, too!
Next up are these crunchy little snacks from Cello! They’re literally made from one thing: cheese!
Each serving of these crunchy crisps has 10 grams of protein and only 1 carb! I’ve added them to salads, poured them on top of my chili, and eaten them with Laughing Cow cheese! Soooo good! Bonus–they’re gluten free!
I’ve been doing the low-carb/Keto thing for a few weeks now and seeing good results so I’m keeping this train going! I found an AMAZINGLY delicious dessert that is LC/K and I just gotta share it!
First, mix the cream cheese and shake in a large mixing bowl until it is well mixed and there are no chunks.
Then, add the packet of sugar-free pudding and peanut butter. Blend well!
After about an hour or so, pop the balls into a container and store in the freezer! You can enjoy these frozen or let them thaw for about a minute or two! They are sooooooo good!
Each ball has about 35 calories, 2 carbs, and 1 gram of protein! Have you ever tried these before? What did you think? Share in the comments below! | 2019-04-18T16:46:37 | https://thehuffmanpost.com/tag/healthy-eating/ |
Two U.S. senators are pushing for answers about a long-running series of private meetings between drug company executives and federal regulators, events that were held at expensive hotels and paid for by the drug firms.
The letter from Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and David Vitter (R-La.) cites concerns about the controversial new high-dose painkiller Zohydro, which was approved last year by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The two sent a letter to Mark Taubman, dean of the medical school at the University of Rochester, asking for financial records on two groups connected to the university — one known as IMMPACT and the other ACTTION — that facilitated meetings between the drug makers and FDA officials.
"We are deeply troubled by allegations that the FDA gave manufacturers of prescription drugs the opportunity to pay thousands of dollars to the University of Rochester Medical Center for the privilege to attend private meetings with FDA officials," the senators wrote.
They cited an investigation by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel/MedPage Today that chronicled email communications between federal officials and doctors who created the groups, including Robert Dworkin of the University of Rochester and Dennis Turk of the University of Washington.
Representatives from pharmaceutical companies — including Zohydro's initial manufacturer Elan — paid between $20,000 and $35,000 to send one representative to the meetings with staffers from FDA and the National Institutes of Health, raising questions about potential pay-to-play in the industry.
In interviews at the time, Turk maintained the meetings simply "answered some questions." But the meetings also birthed the concept of "enriched enrollment," which enables drug companies to weed out non-responders or patients who have adverse reactions to a drug from enrollment in clinical trials. Critics say the process stacks the deck in favor of the drug.
University of Rochester Medical Center spokesman Christopher DiFrancesco said Thursday his institution is preparing a response to the letter.
"The work of these groups is being misrepresented by an advocacy organization that is trying to pressure the FDA to change its approval decision on the drug Zohydro," he said. "We're looking forward to clarifying the work of IMMPACT and ACTTION, which we believe is scientifically sound and serves the best interest of patients."
DiFrancesco countered allegations that the meetings involved pay-to-play because participants couldn't talk about specific drugs and no drug was approved by the FDA because of the meetings.
He also said there were a broad range of participants from academia, industry and government, and that the group functioned as a typical public-private partnership, along the lines of a "working group."
Manchin and Vitter are requesting financial information on all meetings of IMMPACT, ACTTION and other pain conferences that have taken place since 2001.
They also want to know specifics on when and where the meetings were held, who was in attendance, how much each person was paid, food and beverage expenses, and other operational costs.
"We have expressed to FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg our dismay with these pay-to-play meetings and the role they may have played in FDA's failure to protect and promote public health through the regulation and supervision of prescription painkillers," they wrote in the letter. "The FDA's approval process should not compromise patient safety for financial gain."
The emails, which were obtained through an open records request and sent to reporters, showed that IMMPACT and ACTTION meetings usually took place over two days at high-end hotels in the Washington, D.C., area, with about 25 to 50 people at each event.
In addition to Zohydro's manufacturer, several drug makers with a stake in pain management sent representatives, including Purdue Pharma, maker of OxyContin, and Janssen, which has several pain products.
The interactions raised serious questions about the way in which federal regulators interact with the pharmaceutical companies they regulate.
Michael Carome, director of the health research group of the watchdog group Public Citizen, said in an interview at the time that the "whole picture is a troubling one and warrants an independent investigation."
The FDA's deputy director for regulatory programs, Douglas Throckmorton, said agency officials attended the meetings only to hear from the scientific community.
"Pay-for-play is just not the way the FDA operates," Throckmorton said. "That's not part of the culture of the FDA."
But experts say enriched enrollment may provide evidence to the contrary, since the approach makes it much more likely a drug will prove effective and possibly win FDA approval. It's also cheaper for drug companies to conduct trials this way, since it can result in smaller studies, shortened drug development time and lower development costs.
Critics are concerned that drugs tested via enriched enrollment won't reflect real-world use, turning up different results when a drug gets on the market and is prescribed for large numbers of people.
Zohydro clinical trials used the enriched enrollment methodology.
During its FDA advisory committee hearing, several experts expressed concerns about what would happen once the drug moved from trials into the real world because of that methodology.
In earlier interviews, an FDA representative said enriched enrollment follows the concept of personalized medicine in that it attempts to find those for whom a drug will be most effective: "Enrichment will not save a drug that is not safe or effective, but it will help find one that is."
Despite the advisory committee's concerns, which resulted in an 11-2 vote against approval of Zohydro, the agency approved the drug last October.
Since then, several efforts have been made to get the FDA to reconsider its decision. In December, attorneys general from 28 states sent a letter to Hamburg, the FDA commissioner, asking her to rescind approval. And on Wednesday, a coalition of more than 40 doctors and health advocacy groups repeated that request with a letter of their own to Hamburg.
All of these groups voiced concerns that the drug will be prone to widespread abuse. It packs a dose of opioid five to 10 times greater than what is available on the market in the form of products such as Vicodin and Lortab, which also contain acetaminophen.
Zohydro will be pure hydrocodone, and it will not have abuse-resistant technology, which means users will be able to crush or chew the capsules to unleash all of the opioid high at once.

Discussion in 'Air Guns' started by deemus, Apr 6, 2019.
Been wanting a Sig M17 pistol lately. But my cash flow this time of year is mostly outgoing. So I found one in airpistol form. Decided to settle for that since I can afford it. $100 at Academy.
I was surprised at how loud it is. Its about as loud, or louder than a 22 CB shot out of a pistol. My 22 CB's shot from a rilfe are more quiet than this pistol. The size and weight pretty much match the real thing.
Also, I ordered a couple of extra mags designed for Sig 320 air pistols, and they don't fit. Gotta figure out what does fit.
Pretty fun though. I setup a gallery of my grandkids stuffed animals in my living room.
EDIT - found some mags that are designed for the M17.
birddog and orbitup like this.
If the garage door is closed, maybe not.
I need one of those. It would be good for drills and plinking in the shop.
No clue. I'm shooting fuzzy stuffed animals, and I cant tell where I am hitting them.
Planning to try it on my pellet gun shooting tree tonight. I'll let you know.
I'm shooting fuzzy stuffed animals, and I cant tell where I am hitting them.
Careful, that will likely get you put on a watch list and your real guns taken away!
This guy. Is the toughest teddy bear in the box. The pellets will not penetrate his hide. They stick in the fur, to be picked out.
I really want to know what this thing is made of. | 2019-04-25T06:32:07 | http://texasguntalk.com/threads/sig-m17-co2-air-pistol.91125/ |

The Fair Trade Commission said yesterday that it fined three large discount stores a total of 439 million won ($435,000) for unfairly using their dominant position to cheat their subcontractors.
E-Mart was fined 220 million won; HomePlus, 120 million won, and Carrefour, 99 million won. Lotte Mart and Wal-Mart received orders to correct their dealings with their subcontractors.
According to the antitrust agency, E-Mart, HomePlus and Wal-Mart returned goods worth 1.8 billion won to their subcontractors without a reasonable explanation.
It also said Carrefour and HomePlus took advantage of ambiguity in their arrangements with their subcontractors to force them to do whatever they wanted, such as set up displays.
Separately, the agency also said E-Mart and Lotte Mart was guilty of false advertising.
“Beginning next month, we will run a system that will reward those who report unfair practices in the retail industry to tighten the supervision in large discount stores,” said an official at the Fair Trade Commission. | 2019-04-23T20:56:41 | http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2545779 |

We already mentioned the online stores that will rent you a wedding dress or let you find preowned wedding dresses for sale, but what about buying a new dress online. Well, that’s easy too in this day and age. Most of the top department stores and top wedding dress designers all have their own online stores. There are also specialty online stores like The Dessy Group and Dido Bridal. A quick Google search will uncover a treasure trove of online stores. We recommend sticking to the known names, these are big sums of money we’re talking about so be careful.
Research: Look through bridal magazines and wedding websites, attend bridal shows to familiarize yourself with latest designer trends. Keep pictures of the designs you like. From the type, size and location of your reception, determine your budget and styles of wedding gowns you prefer. Contact friends and/or relatives for recommended bridal shops in your area.
Selection: Start shopping as soon as you set your date. Most designer wedding dresses need to be special ordered. It could take 3 to 6 months for special order or designer wedding dresses to arrive. Order at least six months prior to your reception. This will allow time for fittings, alterations, and coordination. If you decide to have your gown custom made, allow about 6 months since selection of style, fabric and details along with fittings takes time.
Shopping: To make your day a pleasant and rewarding one, try not to visit too many bridal shops on the same day. When you are fresh, full of energy and enthusiasm, you will be able to make sound judgments. On the other hand, if you come to the store exhausted and unprepared, after trying a few styles you may be confused and find that all the gowns begin to look the same and you may come home toting one of the cheap wedding dresses simply because you were tired! Bring along pictures of wedding gowns you like and be open to discuss your plan and idea with a bridal consultant. It could happen that the gown you like in a picture doesn’t look good on you. The bridal consultant will study your figure type and personality to help select the styles that flatter you and suit your budget. Try on all of the dresses the consultant shows you, even if it may not seem like “your style” of dress as most wedding dresses look much better, and different, on you than on the racks. You may want to bring a family member or friend along for a second opinion. Avoid taking more than one person since too many opinions can conflict and confuse. Wearing appropriate undergarments and a bit of makeup can also help to make the wedding dress look and fit better. Take a Polaroid camera along just in case you cannot decide. Take a picture of yourself wearing each wedding dress and bring them home to study.
Purchase – It seems there are now as many WAYS to purchase a bridal gown as there are bridal gowns! Full-service salons, internet discounters, warehouses and more are all competing for your business. Regardless of where and how you order a gown, some things are the same. A sales contract will be required, you will need to select your size and more. There are many horror stories from brides who were taken advantage of when they were not aware of how to protect themselves (and their money) through this process.
Whether you are shopping at a full-service bridal salon, warehouse, etc., the salesperson should make you aware of the various types of size choices. You should be measured by an experienced bridal seamstress. Does she know the difference between a body measurement and a garment measurement? If the store chooses the size, be certain they write that on the sales receipt. While most gowns need some alterations, if it is clearly too big or too small, the store should take responsibility for alterations if they select the size for you.
Ask if the merchandise is being specially ordered or will you be taking this sample from stock? This information should be written on your sales receipt, particularly if the gown you tried on was close to the size garment you need.
A reputable business should not try to conceal any information from you. Ask for the name of the manufacturer or designer and write the name on your receipt. If you don’t receive the appropriate responses that should raise a warning flag. Under the law, sample wedding gowns must be properly labeled to include fiber content, country of origin, care instructions, and one of the following business distribution channels must be identified: Manufacturer’s name or RN (Registered Number) or the retailer’s name.
The sales contract you will sign to finalize the order is designed to protect both you and the retailer. It will, of course, include your name, address, phone number, and method of payment. Your wedding date and last acceptable date for delivery of the gown should also be included. Be sure to allow time for portraits and/or alterations in the last acceptable date. The sales contract should include the manufacturer’s name, style number of the gown, size and color you are ordering, a description of the gown, and a picture reference, if available, for designer wedding dresses list the designer’s name. A reputable retailer should not keep this information from you. It should not be acceptable to allow a store code in place of the actual manufacturer name and style number. At the bottom of the contract is the disclaimer or “fine print”. Be sure to read this and ask questions if you have them.
Although retailers accept many methods of payment, it is highly recommended that you pay for your new gown with a credit card. This is a final line of defense. Federal Regulation C entitles consumers to receive a refund if the merchandise does not live up to what is promised. The law specifically states that if you have a problem with the quality of goods or services purchased with a credit card and you have tried in good faith to correct the problem with the merchant, you may not have to pay the bill. This means if your gown arrives damaged, in the wrong size, or not at all, you still have your money.
If your retailer refuses to complete information you request or answer any questions to your satisfaction – DO NOT SIGN THE CONTRACT! Many reputable retailers complete orders as stated above as their normal procedure. Don’t feel trapped into purchasing from a bridal shop with whom you do not have full confidence.
The Federal Trade Commission is trying to make sure that brides-to-be get what they pay for when they buy a wedding dress – including all the information that federal law requires on wearing apparel.
The disclosures — including the manufacturer or seller, the fabric, the country where the garment was made, and cleaning instructions — must be included on every garment offered for sale, says the FTC. But they’re particularly important on wedding dresses, arguably the most expensive and memorable purchases of a lifetime.
Bernstein said the emergence of discount ordering services — either through toll-free telephone numbers or the Internet — has spurred some retailers to remove disclosure labels from their gowns. It is not against the law to remove manufacturers’ labels and replace them with a store’s own labels, she said, but it is illegal to sell or show a gown that doesn’t have the required information at all.
The FTC has issued a new brochure, “Wedding Gown Labels: Unveiling the Requirements,” to alert manufacturers and retailers about the following disclosures required by law on all clothing offered for sale, including wedding gowns: the identity of the manufacturer, distributor or retailer, either by name or by registered identification number (RN). The FTC issues the RN, which consumers can use to identify a company should they have a complaint or a compliment to share. The FTC maintains an RN lookup service at its web site: http://www.ftc.gov/ the garment’s fiber content. “This information is important to any shopper, and especially to brides,” said Bernstein. “Who wants to pay the price of silk if the garment is polyester?” federal law requires that clothes carry a label that identifies the country or origin. all garments must carry permanently affixed care labels telling consumers how to clean and care for them. “We hope that bridal gown businesses will refer to our business education brochure to make sure they’re complying with the law and providing brides-to-be with the information they deserve,” Bernstein said.
Copies of the Facts for Business, “Wedding Gown Labels: Unveiling the Requirements” are available from the FTC’s web site at http://www.ftc.gov. | 2019-04-21T01:15:41 | https://www.topweddingsites.com/wedding-blog/dresses/ultimate-guide-wedding-dresses?q=wedding-dress.html |
Weekly prices for unrefined sugar, NYBOT (click to enlarge). Source: Commodity Charts & Quotes.
In May, ethanol prices in Brazil recorded their lowest level in 2 years, making the government consider an increase in the blending rate by 2% (from 23 to 25%). At the same time, crude oil prices have risen to new records. The advantage of sugar cane based ethanol has never been this great (earlier post). Meanwhile India's millions of sugar farmers are in crisis, battling falling prices because of an unprecedented output - production is likely to reach a record 28 million tonnes in the year to September 2007. And 30 million tons is projected for the 2008 season. The Indian sugar industry - the world's second-largest producer - demanded the government to implement a switch to ethanol, in order to slow down the price drops (earlier post).
Now, sugar futures in New York, where the product is traded in its raw form, fell on speculation that India may offer to sell unrefined supplies of the sweetener, adding to the global surplus.
Investors and traders expect India to issue a tender on July 23 for up to 265,000 metric tons of raw sugar, according to a report published on July 19 by BNP Paribas Commodity Futures Inc. in New York. Until recently, India only exported white, refined sugar. The record crop in India may lead the country to double total exports, a minister said last week.
Sugar futures for October delivery fell 0.02 cent, or 0.2 percent, to 10.30 cents a pound at 12:43 p.m. (July 20) on the New York Board of Trade. Futures are down 33 percent in the past year on rising global production.
Indian sugar output may rise 7 percent to a record 30 million tons in the year ending Sept. 30, 2008, from an estimated 28 million tons this year, according to the National Federation of Cooperative Sugar Factories Ltd., a producer group. India may double exports to 3 million tons in 2008, Akilesh Prasad Singh, the minister for agriculture, consumer affairs, food and public distribution, said on July 9 [entry ends here]. | 2019-04-19T18:31:07 | https://global.mongabay.com/news/bioenergy/2007/07/world-sugar-prices-keep-falling-despite.html |
Labour must make sure the price of Brexit is not paid for by ordinary working people.
The UK formally begins leaving the EU today. It’s a gloomy prospect for many and a surprise revolution for many more. I’ve got mixed feelings though gloomy still has the edge, I think. I so hope history simply puts this as a gear shift for an internationalist Great Britain. I fear not.
Those who led the winning argument last year must face scrutiny for their claims whilst Labour holds the government to account. Red bus promises of £350 million a week extra for the NHS are just the start.
The Labour party has to make sure the price of Brexit is not paid for by ordinary working people. Labour’s Shadow Cabinet is right that our focus is on the economy. Good jobs for everyone living here. This starts with skills and has to consider the impact of immigration where people aren’t trained or given the opportunity to get the skills to compete.
Average wages are barely creeping above inflation at 1.8% (inflation is 1.6% Jan 2017) according to the Office for National Statistics whilst the cost of living hurtles above this.
Labour’s version of Britain post-Brexit, must learn the lessons of the recent past where our EU membership helped super-charge our economy but left far too many ordinary people behind in doing so. Those who enjoyed the best of the EU rarely saw or heard the worst bits. And those who were left out, voted out.
In 2006 I was working as a lead for Employment and Skills at Greater Manchester Chamber working across the region. Nationally and locally Labour did huge amounts with investment in skills and regeneration. The impact of immigration was a huge benefit to our local economy and did much to grow the businesses and employers serving our economic area. The problem was, we didn’t join the efforts and opportunities together with training in local colleges and appreciate the impact that migration had on the local wards of greater Manchester fighting to keep up with the rapid change afoot. One example is of a fabrications company (part of the now fondly referred to 4th industrial revolution) in north Manchester.
Spotted as a future proof business and grower, they were given incentives by the then Labour Government and Local Labour Councils to move to an area where their new, emerging jobs would be most in need for local people. But locally and nationally, we didn’t do enough to join up the skills and immigration policy. So the jobs continued to require a new source of EU skilled labour rather than being a way to regenerate the life opportunities of local people and those already living here.
Labour cannot be coy in admitting this. We spent the benefits of this economic boom, super charged by skilled economic labour from the EU, on historic levels of public sector investment which benefit all. And whilst the newly created Migration Advisory Committee in the Home Office at the time began its work to asses, and in some cases question, the impact of these population increase efforts to move fast or first in considering the opportunity to add the local unemployed in to this new demand for well skilled, well paid work.
This should be heeded by new city region mayors shortly responsible for ensuring skills and labour needs are joined up. Starting first, with challenges to the status quo where previous efforts have fallen short; joining services together or simply applying some clear sightedness to the deployment authorities that comes with the office.
The government’s shameful absence in its Brexit bill of protecting those EU citizens, for whom the UK is their home, with a right to stay amendment, as moved by Labour’s Harriet Harman must be among the first checks the Labour party applies to the Tory’s take on Brexit. | 2019-04-22T20:07:48 | http://www.jamesfrith.blog/labour-make-sure-price-brexit-not-paid-by-working-people/ |
I had the opportunity to interact with the staff at Precious Care Assisted Living in Concord and was incredibly impressed at everyone's willingness to help me - they all went above and beyond to assist.
For the past six months, my 88 year old mother has been living at Precious Care. Evert time I visit, I am impressed by how gently and with care the residents are treated by the staff. It is a small, communal based type of facility forming a family like atmosphere. Staff freely interact with the residents: have sing along on a piano and even have outings in the summer time to local community concerts. Since coming to Precious Care, my mother's physical strength has improved, has gained some weight and is overall stronger and happier. Since we live out of town, we feel she is in good hands and is well looked after.
Great facility with caring and empathetic owner and staff My uncle has been with Precious Care for a year and a half. The owner and staff treat my uncle and my family as if we are family and have always gone over and above to meet our needs. Precious care has a homelike atmosphere which is kept neat and clean and has a large common living room for the residents to sit together and visit and/or watch television together. If you're lucky you may even catch the owner taking requests and playing them on the piano!! There is also a quaint screened in porch to be enjoyed on pleasant weather days. I highly recommend this facility for your loved one.
Love the home! The staff is caring and treat the residents with respect. They direct everyone's needs individually and treat them as if they're family.
We had looked at many facilities and decided on this small, kind, and friendly place that cares for less than 20 residents. My wife found this wonderful home for her older brother three years ago. It was so nice that when my mother had developed full blown dementia that we decided to put her in their care also. The staff treats the residents with care and respect. They take the time to make all as comfortable as possible. I had never seen any resident being handled in a rough manner. They have an open door policy where family and friends are always welcomed. I would recommend Precious Care to anyone who is looking for a home style environment as oppose to the larger institutionalized facilities.
This place is CHEAP! REALLY CHEAP and you get what you pay for! The food is completely processed. The meds are changed and slowly they introduce meds that make them sleepy.I feel they are crooks and where you would get a MD to stand up in court against a asssi-living facility ?? good luck. My parent was there briefly I monitored the food and filthy bed and bath facilities and they were terrible. IT seemed that the help was constantly changing and on and on.
Loved the facility. We met the staff and toured the facility. There is enough staff to where there is not just one person available to care for the residents. Place is clean and orderly! Currently no room available.
I toured this facility. It was clean and didn't smell. The grounds and driveway was nice and I'm sure could have accomdated mom. The room was smaller than what she has here and there wasn't any bathroom facilities in the room. The nearest one was located around the corner in one direction or a short way down the hall in the other drection. I don't think at the present time this would work for mom - she goes to the bathroom frequently and I forgot to ask how many people share the bathroom.
Met with director. PT and OT available onsite. Converted family home, 10-13 residents, fully wheelchair accessible, rooms are avg house bedroom size. Felt like living with roommates in an extended family situation. The residents were outgoing, alert and all women. close quarters. Common area & dining only slightly larger than an average suburb home.

Rehabilitation services are provided to patients to help restore any physical, mental, or cognitive skills and abilities that may have been lost due to injury or disease. Rehabilitation services are crucial for helping individuals get back to normal, or near-normal living.
The Department of Rehabilitation administers vocational rehabilitation services. The Department of Rehabilitation is where you would go to learn which rehabilitation services you need. You must ask the people who work in the department what is required for a full recovery, and they recommend rehabilitation services based on your medical charts and diagnosis.
You can contact the department at any time if you have questions about the sort of services you need, and choose from a number of therapists that are covered by your plan. Speak to the staff at any time, and you may schedule appointments that serve your or your children after a catastrophic medical event.
The types of rehabilitation services range from the most complicated to the simplest. Ask the department of rehabilitation to take you through the options that are best for you, and they may recommend more than one type of therapy. Each level of therapy is quite different because there have different focuses.
Speak to your therapist about individual goals for rehabilitation services, and the therapist will explain the progress they see. You are hoping to get back to a normal life, but you must reach smaller goals along the way. Young children are often given special worksheets that give them gold stars for every task completed. They learn how to function normally, and they have fun at the same time.
Physical therapy is used any time you have an injury or illness that limits your mobility. If you have trouble using your legs when you were hurt, you may find that the physical therapy you do allows your joints to bend as they should. It's possible to recover quite a lot of strength in your muscles, and the therapist may teach you to walk.
The same is true in your arms and upper body if you have any level of atrophy or joint pain. The physical therapy sessions are designed to train your body to move as it once did. The therapist may ask you if you have athletic goals to reach, or they may get you back to simply living normally.
Occupational therapy is the use of fine motor skills for writing, eating, and daily tasks. You may forget how to write if you were badly injured or went through a horrible illness. Every occupational therapy session takes you through another task that allows you to do the things you once did every day.
The occupational therapist explains techniques they use even with little kids to teach them to write, and they use special tools that help you learn to eat, use doors, turn keys, and do simple tasks such as turning a screwdriver. You cannot function at home unless the therapist has taken you through every motor skill that is required.
This is a needed service for adults you have had their abilities impaired, and it is called occupational therapy because you cannot go back to work until these sessions are complete. Therapy of this style may continue after you return to work because there is quite a difference between having the ability to work and is fully recovered.
Speech therapy is necessary if your cognition has been impaired due to an accident or injury. Patients who suffer from a TBI or traumatic brain injury may lose their ability to speak or notice their speech is slurred. The speech therapy sessions are designed to give you back your thoughts, to teach you each word that you must use, and to help you form thoughts that may be lost.
The department of rehabilitation may send in young kids to have speech therapy before their speech is permanently altered, or adults may come in after a horrible event such as a stroke. You do not lose your ability to speak forever, but you must work to get it back.
The rehabilitation services you need are prescribed by the medical staff with the department, and they let you know how many sessions are covered under your insurance policy. Plan accordingly with the aid of the insurance office, and it is quite important for you to speak to the staff any time you have questions about the services that are needed. You may relearn to eat, write, speak, walk, or shoot a basketball depending on the service received. | 2019-04-24T20:20:18 | https://www.firstquotehealth.com/health-insurance-resources/glossary/rehabilitation-services |
← The town that was ‘by the sea’..
Sow them. Water them. Let them grow.
Be that flower if you must.
Scent the hand that got you crushed.
Beautify the ground, fallen or plucked.
What then, if you weren’t you?
Fight for it, if you must.
So be all of yourself.
But be the best of yourself.

As on many Saturday mornings, this past weekend I sipped my morning coffee while listening to ABC’s Saturday Night Country from Radio Australia’s Shepparton shortwave transmission site on 9.58 MHz…some 9,800 miles from my home.
In this program, Emma Swift continues to fill in for Felicity Urquhart (who is on maternity leave). Swift, who is an amazing host and songwriter in her own right, focuses in this show on country drinking songs (amongst others) and on a few nostalgic country songs in the final set. Fortunately, I captured the whole show in two recordings.
The Archive.org download page for these recordings can be found here.

I stumbled across this a couple of weeks ago while trying out my new TECSUN PL-660. Propagation wasn’t optimal but Emma’s eclectic and delightful selection of tunes was just the right way to kick of my Saturday morning. (I’m also partial to Linda Linda Ronstadt) Sent her a thank you on facebook and she responded – happy to have an American listener check in.
Excellent, Mark! Thanks for letting them know you listen on shortwave.
Your site is fantastic–I check it every day. How do you record your shortwave audio? Based on your recommendation I have just purchased a Grundig G3, and when it arrives I would like to record some stations. Thanks!
Thank you, Benjamin! The G3 is a great portable–you’ll love it. I would recommend you check out a portable digital audio recorder like the Zoom H1 or Zoom H2N. Any recorder will do, but it’s best to use one with a dedicated line-in. Sometimes you can even record on your laptop via the Mic jack (though this approach can inject a little noise from the laptop).
For the SWLing Post, unless I’m travelling, I now typically record on the WinRadio Excalibur or Bonito RadioJet. | 2019-04-24T08:13:46 | https://swling.com/blog/2013/02/shortwave-radio-recordings-saturday-night-country/?replytocom=146700 |

South Kerry Development Partnership CLG is a community led local development company. It was founded in 1991, and was one of the first area based partnership companies to be established by the Government under the auspices of the then programme for Economic & Social progress (PESP). The establishment of local development companies like South Kerry Development Partnership CLG, followed a realisation by government that what was needed to tackle the economic and social problems of rural areas was a localised community based response. The local community, working in partnership with statutory agencies, the social partners and local government, could take responsibility for addressing the economic and social problems within their communities. Strategies and related actions could be developed locally, with local ownership and in response to local needs This ‘bottom up’ approach to Rural Development is a core ethos of South Kerry Development Partnership CLG and it provides the organisation with a methodology of working which informs the design, development and implementation of its rural development initiatives.
South Kerry Development Partnership CLG is an experienced rural development organisation and has successfully implemented numerous state & EU funded rural development programmes since its foundation in 1991. It combines an economic development role, creating sustainable jobs and attracting investment with community, cultural and social development activities.

It is a non-governmental organisation and is legally established as a Company limited by guarantee with registered charitable status with the Irish Revenue Commissioners. The operation of South Kerry Development Partnership CLG is overseen by a voluntary board of directors consisting of 22 members representing four key pillars, The Community & Voluntary Sector, The Social Partners, Statutory Agencies and Local Government. The community & voluntary sectors is the largest pillar on the board. Full details on the partnership board are detailed below.
South Kerry Development Partnership CLG (SKDP) works to promote and assist the development of sustainable, vibrant communities in South Kerry, and to improve the quality of life of people living there through the provision of social and economic opportunities. SKDP does this by targeting financial resources, creating strategic alliances, facilitating networking and fostering cooperation, and will incorporate ongoing evaluation of its work to ensure focused delivery of its objectives. SKDP is a local development company which works in partnership with state agencies, the social partners, local elected members and community and voluntary representatives.
The Core Values which underpin all of the work of the South Kerry Development Partnership CLG are as follows: Using a partnership approach – fostering involvement of stakeholder agencies.

Is this possible using either the camera itself or the app in the mobile phone?
Or is there some software to do this that I can run on a windows PC?
Is there an easy way to convert, save as or export the 360 image to a cubic or non spherical format that's compatible with most of the online 360 view services? | 2019-04-19T13:42:02 | https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Cameras-IT-Everything-Else/File-Conversion-360-2017-to-Equirectangular/td-p/228588 |
#TBT to the Shh by Sadie Pop Up Shop!
In preparation for "the big move" from New Zealand to England, we held a one-day Pop Up Shop in Wellington! And what an amazing day it was - customers new and returning stocked up on Shh sparkles galore. Most popular pieces that day? The Acapulco and Miami Nights necklaces! They were flying out of the door...yay!
We think it must be time to start considering the next Pop Up Shop! | 2019-04-20T14:16:16 | https://www.shhbysadie.com/blog/2017/2/9/tbt-to-the-shh-by-sadie-pop-up-shop |
The film is part bio picture, part fan film and all about America. Jarecki borrowed Elvis’s actual Rolls Royce and put celeb admirers like Alec Baldwin, Ethan Hawke, Ashton Kutcher, Emily Lou Harris and John Hiatt inside the car to talk about the significance of the Elvis celebrity, bigger and brighter at its time than any other. The film is simply a truth about who and what America is, through one of the biggest personalities it ever produced, for better or worse. | 2019-04-20T01:12:08 | http://hollywoodchicago.com/news/28684/film-review-podtalk-director-eugene-jarecki-crowns-elvis-presley-the-king |
Every summer when I was a kid my father hitched the trailer to the back of our olive green Suburban and set out on vacation. My mother spent days preparing food for the trip and packing essentials like towels, cooking supplies and dimes for the shower. Sometimes our destination was the Washington coast or the white hot Oregon Dunes, but one of our favorite spots to land was Sun Lakes in eastern Washington, a three-and-a-half hour drive from home.
I often brought a friend along and we passed the weary journey lying on blankets in the back of the truck playing cards and telling jokes. The drive was hot and arid, winding through desertous terrain, craggy vertical bluffs rising high above the narrow road on one side and cascading steeply down the other into a meandering green-black river. We’d reach the park in the afternoon, and as my parents set up camp my brothers and sister went to jump the cliffs and my friend and I, though we were only ten or so, were free to go off and explore a nearby lake.
Barefoot in our bathing suits, we walked on a rocky path watching hopefully and intently for snakes, our feet and ankles powdered in a fine ruddy dust. The base of the path widened and spilled out onto a small, sandy outcropping at the water’s edge, sprouting tufts of sturdy grasses and a shady poplar tree. We dipped our toes in first. The water was clear and pleasantly warm, having been bathed in the sun for weeks on end. Carefully, we slid out on the smooth, slimy moss-covered rocks, gripping with our toes and balancing ourselves with outstretched arms, as if on a tightrope. Several yards out it remained shallow. Golden-green milfoil tickled our calves as it gracefully waved just below the water’s surface, which was glassy and adorned with the sky's billowy white clouds.
Soon we were joined by a lithe little girl of about four wading on her own, her watchful parents several yards away chatting with another couple. The child slipped on the slick shallow outcropping and plopped, just barely under the water. Time stood still. She remained motionless except for her wavy blond hair undulating and mingling with the milfoil, her arms floating at her sides, her ivory skin contrasting sharply and sickeningly with the dark submerged rocks. She was almost within our reach, but we stood frozen in shock. Within seconds an adult splashed clumsily to her rescue, yanked her up by her arm and held her as she gasped and cried. My friend and I stood by utterly paralyzed and helpless.
I experience these same feelings when I watch Calvin have a seizure. He is just within my reach but there is nothing I can do to help. I can only stand by and watch from where I am, paralyzed and powerless. Only when it ends can I scoop him up, sometimes while he's still gulping for air. I just hope one day he doesn’t drown amidst the surging electric waves that rhythmically lap against his precious brain and from which I cannot rescue him. | 2019-04-24T22:33:57 | https://www.calvinsstory.com/2011/02/out-of-reach.html |
Having front-row seats to Col. Chris Hadfield’s speech? Great.
Getting a personalized signed copy of his book? Better.
Getting a picture with him? Amazing.
Eating lunch with him? Blow my mind amazing.
Discussing the applications of my research on space shuttle technology with him? Priceless.
I am absolutely honoured to have received the Grand Platinum Award at this year’s Canada-Wide Science Fair (CWSF) – Expo-sciences pancandienne (ESPC) in addition to the Discovery Challenge, Gold Medal, and Actuarial Foundation of Canada Award! All that hard work has paid off!
It was such a pleasure to make so many new brilliant friends from all across Canada and reunite with old ones. Thank you so much to my family and friends for the incredible support!
Of course, I really owe this all to Ms. Began, my amazing math teacher, who gifted me her calculus textbook way back at the beginning of grade 9.
Thank you to the SCDSB Student Senate for electing me as one of the Student Trustees for the 2014-2015 school year. After having been a member of the Education Minister’s Student Advisory Council and President of my school’s Student Council, I am thrilled to have the opportunity to represent SCDSB students at the board level and take the reins of the Student Senate. Looking forward to a fantastic year!
It has been quite a while since I have posted on this blog; my life has been so action-packed over the past months that I have hardly had time to catch my breath, let alone write!
In the past months, I have developed a novel videoconferencing system that aims to provide increased access to healthcare in developing regions in Africa and India in partnership with the organizations the African Medical and Research Foundation and Lokalex; I was elected as the Student Council President of my high school; I spoke at conferences, workshops, and annual meetings for international charities; I went from being the Marketing Director of a national non-profit organization, to the Vice-President, and, now, to the President; I organized a STEM conference for 200 high school students; and I have started working on yet another science research project! All the while, school has been no less forgiving to me than it ever has been. So, I’ve been pretty busy.
But, the very most exciting thing that happened to me over the past few months was receiving an invitation to speak at a TEDx conference. On March 1, I delivered my very first TEDx talk at TEDxYouth@Brampton to a full-house of eager students. I spoke about the importance of educational diversification (see video above).
I hope this serves as a half-descent update for the time being. I’ll aim to write again soon!
Thanks to GenYNot for including me in this article!
In honor of International Day of The Girl, GenYNot has curated a list of girls under 26 years old from across the globe that are dedicating their lives to fight the unique challenges girls across the world face. The fulfillment of girls’ right to education is the most important issue because even though more girls are entering school than ever before, 31 million are still denied this right. Those that do attend school face major challenges – discrimination, financial stress, and threats to their safety, to name just a few. Read about how each girl is driving the solutions not only in their home country but across the world. Thanks for the inspiration!
Two years ago, I became interested in learning more about Alzheimer’s Disease after my grandfather passed away after suffering for years from it. I had this childish dream that maybe I could find a cure for Alzheimer’s Disease, so I began searching for agents that could be potential cures, one thing lead to another, and I ended up doing research that uncovered the biosafety of two amyloid-ß inhibitors, discovering a new property of the drugs and then applying them to the development of a prototype for a cardio-protective drug; winning the national science fair; being named one of Canada’s Top 20 Under 20; receiving the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal; and going on a research expedition to the Canadian and Greenlandic Arctic, all because of a little curiosity I had as an 11 year old.
Both Dr. Michael Borrie and I listened to your radio interview and were very impressed by your intelligence, energy, and enthusiasm. Additionally, you are amazingly well-spoken. Dr. Borrie and I are geriatricians (trained in Internal Medicine and then sub-specialized in geriatrics.) … We think it will be exciting for you to attend the Canadian Conference on Dementia in October of 2013. I am waiting for a reply from the organizers to see if it will be in Ottawa or Toronto that year. We will follow up with you about that.
We communicated over the next year and I ended up going to the CCD last week! There was just one difference between what was written in her email and what actually happened: the conference was in Vancouver, BC!
Going to the conference was an absolutely amazing experience for so many reasons. I was inspired by the latest research being conducted related to dementia, I met some of the top dementia researchers in the country and I learned so much about Alzheimer’s Disease.
I am hoping to present research at the next CCD!
Just yesterday, I was featured in an article called “The Underage Scientist” in the Microsoft Corporate Citizenship blog! I hope the article might help other YouthSpark kids find their path! | 2019-04-19T10:25:21 | http://mayab.ca/author/administrator/page/4/ |
Honey as a natural energy booster.
Do you down an energy bar or drink during your hectic day? Try a spoonful of honey instead; it’s been proven to deliver a significant boost of energy to athletes performing strenuous exercise.
Forget the fancy facial creams.
Raw honey is exceptional for your face and skin, according to research. Try a “Gentle Honey Wash” consisting of a dollop of honey mixed with two tablespoons of warm water in the palm of your hand, then gently massage the mixture into your face or skin.
”A spoonful of honey before bed (by itself or in a cup of warm herbal tea) is a natural sleep remedy that can help you relax and fall asleep faster,” writes Natural News‘ Elizabeth Walling.
Suppress that cough and throat irritation.
Pure, non-pasteurized honey is an excellent elixir for common wintertime ailments like coughs, colds and sore throats.
“Honey helps with coughs, particularly buckwheat honey. In a study of 110 children, a single dose of buckwheat honey was just as effective as a single dose of dextromethorphan in relieving nocturnal cough and allowing proper sleep,” writes health enthusiast and researcher Diana Herrington.
Boost your immune system with this natural antibiotic.
According to recent research, defensin-1, a protein added to honey by bees, possesses antibacterial properties and could be used against drug-resistant bacteria. This bee-produced protein “could one day be used to treat burns and skin infections and to develop new drugs that could combat antibiotic-resistant infections,” says a summary of the research published in the Journal of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology.
For AllergiesRaw honey purchased from a local source is an excellent way of treating seasonal allergies. Local honey is preferred for treating allergies because the likelihood is great that it will contain small amounts of the specific pollens an individual may be allergic to.
The differences between raw and pasteurized honey are substantial. Raw honey is an alkaline-forming food that contains natural vitamins, enzymes, powerful antioxidants and other important natural nutrients. These are the very nutrients that are destroyed during the heating and pasteurization process. In fact, pasteurized honey is equivalent to and just as unhealthy as eating refined sugar.
The apple cider vinegar that is rich in minerals is the unfiltered and organic vinegar. There is a long history of its use in medicine dating back to 400 B.C., when the father of medicine, Hippocrates, used it to treat his patients. Although there is not a lot of scientific evidence to prove its effectiveness, it is still considered to be a valuable remedy for illnesses such as diabetes and osteoarthritis.
The presence of pectin in apple cider vinegar helps reduce bad cholesterol in the body. Some individuals exhibit an allergy to pectin and should therefore avoid apple cider vinegar.
Potassium, magnesium and other minerals are present in apple cider vinegar. Potassium controls the water balance in the body and maintains a healthy heart rhythm. Magnesium is a catalyst in enzyme activity, helping digestion and assisting in the uptake of calcium to form healthy bones.
Garlic can be used to inhibit microbial growth due to the compound called Allicin. The compound is sulfur based and is not inherently present in garlic but when it is chopped. This is the liquid that oozes out from garlic and has a pungent smell. It has been studied that this compound can be used to inhibit the growth of bacteria as well as fungal growth.
Allicin is the natural defense mechanism of garlic bulbs against pests. This particular component unique in garlic has been studied heavily. Studies that support Garlic benefits agree that it can address risks of atherosclerosis as well as the deposition of fat on the blood vessels. It can also be used to decrease blood pressure and balance out lipoprotein levels.
The Allicin in garlic has been studied to test its effectiveness against a strain of Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin resistant). Water based allicin is being studied as a more potent form of medicinal tool. The organic compound, though analyzed as a useful and powerful antibactetrial product, oxidizes very fast and therefore, it requires a unique vessel to be administered orally to the patient without losing potency. Water based formulations prove to be effective since hydrogen bonds with oxygen preserves the molecule.
Another garlic benefit to take into consideration is its effect to the immune system. According to studies, garlic can boost immune function by stimulating white blood cells. This then increases the antibody functions. Again, Allicin is an important component to this feature. As an antioxidant, garlic has been said to minimize free radicals in the blood.
Garlic has been popularly known to have compounds that serve as blood thinners. These agents can be used to minimize the risks of heart ailments as well as strokes. However, this is only applicable to patients or individuals with the tendency to develop blood clots along the arterial lining, causing clogging and possible blockage. People taking garlic supplements or maybe high doses of garlic products for medicinal benefits, it would be best to get the advice from a medical expert. As much as Garlic benefits people, too much, like anything else, can be detrimental, especially without prior knowledge about its risks and advantages.
When it comes to the skin, Garlic benefits take effect in topical form instead of ingesting it. For people who have acne, natural topical creams that use garlic can very well help the individual in minimizing the risks of breakouts or eliminate existing ones. Both in natural, conventional and other traditions, like in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine, garlic can be used in topical form as a cream to eliminate acne, and as an antiaging product. Again, one has to look at the components of garlic and how it works. It can fight off free radicals with the help of the sulfur based allicin. This same component, when applied in acne, can serve as a topical antibiotic to remove the bacterial growth and minimize inflammation, speeding up the healing process with acne, there are particular things based on Ayurvedic traditions that one might want to follow. Garlic should be applied to skin with warm water every morning. This will serve as the natural defense of the skin and it also helps in improving the skin’s natural glow. The person must also not eat any spicy foods while undergoing the treatment. For the rest of the day, cleaning the face with cold water 5 times is crucial. In Chinese medicine, garlic is considered as a hot food since it produces heat in the body. Any food that heats the body up can cause flare ups. The goal is to control the temperature levels inside. Complementary to Ayurvedic principle, the said processes can help in addressing the negative side effects of this hot food on the skin.
It is necessary to stress out that too much of the good thing can lead to bad things. The same goes with garlic.
For a person with no ailments, 2-4 cloves of garlic are the maximum daily dosage. This can be taken in before the person sleeps and can be taken in with milk or water afterwards.
As said earlier, garlic is a thinning agent and too much can lead to serious health risks. Supplements with increased dosages of garlic should be taken under medical supervision. This is especially true to patients with heart ailments.
Due to the anticoagulant properties of Allicin, garlic should never be taken before any minor or major surgical procedures are done.
Any person who wishes to take in garlic supplements with other medications is discouraged from doing so.
People with Asthma should not take in garlic since it can worsen the condition.
People with sensitive skin should not apply garlic directly to the surface. Garlic has sulfur compounds and if you are sensitive to the element, please avoid taking garlic.
It is advised to any person who wishes to eat or take garlic to ingest a small amount first. It is very rare to have hypersensitivity to this plant but it is best to be safe than sorry.
Raw garlic is better than cooked if the person wishes to take advantage of the full medicinal potential of allicin. The reason is that the molecule is very unstable and is easily destroyed by elevating the temperature.
When you cook garlic, you are getting Garlic benefits for its culinary value and not any more for medicinal aspects.
Eating raw garlic may not be the most delicious thing that you have ever tasted, but it can bring you so many health advantages. It is known worldwide for its pungent smell and its vital role in many dishes. However, it is not only a powerful addition to your favourite dish; it is also discovered to have some of the best health benefits known to man. Let us explore some of the most important garlic benefits that anyone can obtain.
High cholesterol levels are one of the factors that cause heart disease and it is best that we avoid it. By incorporating cloves in your daily meals, you can lower your cholesterol levels. This is due to the fact that garlic benefits your body through antioxidants that will prevent low density lipoprotein (bad fat) from being oxidized; therefore reducing your cholesterol level. And this is great because we all know how cholesterol clogs up the arteries eventually leading to heart disease and stroke.
Garlic benefits your body too through antibacterial as well as antifungal and antiviral properties that allow them to stop bacteria, fungi, and virus in its tracks. Studies have shown that it resembles a one percent of the antibacterial penicillin’s effectiveness. Diseases that are triggered by fungi, bacteria, or viruses can easily be combated by these garlic benefits.
People suffering from hypertension are prone to develop many diseases such as heart disease and stroke, and other cardiovascular diseases. If you have high blood pressure, garlic benefits can help lower your blood pressure levels. Even normal blood pressure can still be lowered by garlic benefits. Garlic benefits your arteries by making them relax, thereby preventing spasms and hardening that is a factor for hypertension.
Garlic benefits your body too through powerful properties for cancer prevention. Most people are usually concerned about how to prevent the fatal disease of cancer, and it is great to know that garlic benefits your body to fight certain types like stomach cancer, colon cancer, throat cancer, and prostate cancer. Although there is no known levels yet of how much risk is reduced, these studies about garlic benefits are just as promising. Here is one tip: when cooking meat, adding cloves reduces the carcinogens found in it.
Garlic benefits have been found to have something to do with fighting and preventing the common cold. Its antiviral and antibacterial properties may be the reason for these garlic benefits. If you take raw cloves when you have a cold, it is said to reduce the infection and help fight the cold.
When it comes to fighting sickness, it is good at boosting your immune system to help your body guard against diseases. In order to make it more effective, it is recommended that raw cloves must be taken.
The Health Benefits Of Garlic Next time you pick up garlic in the kitchen, do not just think of it as just another ingredient that adds a certain flavor to your dish, think of it as a powerful remedy to many of your health problems, provided that you use it properly. Garlic Benefits are wholesome and potent but unfortunately known to a few. This is because most people think of garlic as a medium that will add a strong flavor to their dish and make it a little spicier to eat. What they do not know about are the Garlic Benefits that nature has put in garlic for them. If such Benefits Of Garlic become widely known to the general public, then there is no doubt that it will be valued more than its being valued now. Garlic is a herb that looks like a bulb when its ripe. When broken, the bulb breaks into individual cloves, which are peeled off and used in different dishes. Nature has bestowed it with many benefits. Apothecaries and physicians of olden times have well known the Benefits Of Garlic. To begin with, they have used garlic as an antiseptic agent, and its extracts were put in lotions and remedies that were used to treat injury wounds. Apart from that, garlic was used in the treatment of heart and blood related diseases. Extracts of garlic were mixed with antimony and butter and were applied to the scalp in order to encourage the growth of new hair and strengthen the existing ones. Garlic oils were used in the treatment of infectious diseases. There are numerous Health Benefits Of Garlic. Modern scientific research on garlic has established the fact that it has got tremendous benefits in terms of curing the diseases that are related to the heart. For example, a research found that there were certain chemicals found in garlic that were essential in the lowering of blood pressure and thus providing the heart, arteries and veins with room for comfort. Certain flavonoids found in garlic can help strengthen the walls and valves of the heart and thus protect the heart from diseases and help it fight existing disease. Garlic has also been known to produce certain chemicals that help lower the LDL cholesterol levels and help attain high HDL cholesterol levels, thus helping a person to lower the content of blood cholesterol in the body. Garlic Health Benefits do not just end there, there are a lot more. A study conducted into the health benefits of garlic revealed that it does possess certain chemicals that are beneficial in the treatment of cancerous cells. This means that garlic could be used to good avail if proper research is carried out on the herb. Besides, garlic has the tendency to regulate the insulin levels in the body and therefore reduce the blood sugar levels. It can therefore be used as a precautionary measure to protect oneself against the threat of diabetes mellitus. Garlic Health Benefits are therefore numerous and more will soon be found along with the passage of time and the advancement of research and development.
Lemons are acidic to the taste, but are alkaline-forming in the body. In fact they are one of the most alkaline-forming foods; this makes them great for balancing a highly acidic condition in the body.
Lemons are a favorite all over the world and an essential food in kitchens everywhere.
In India, Ayurveda medicine values the lemon as a fruit and for its properties. It is sour, warm, promoter of gastric fire, light, good for vision, pungent and astringent.
When there is insufficient oxygen and difficulty in breathing (such as when mountain climbing) lemons are very helpful. The first man to reach the top of Mt. Everest, Edmund Hillary, said that his success on Mt. Everest was greatly due to lemons.
According to The Reams Biological Ionization Theory (RBTI), the lemon is the ONLY food in the world that is anionic (an ion with a negative charge). All other foods are cationic (the ion has a positive charge.) This makes it extremely useful to health as it is the interaction between anions and cations that ultimately provides all cell energy.
Ovarian Cancer Treatment Ginger may be powerful weapon in the treatment of ovarian cancer. A study conducted at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center found that ginger powder induces cell death in all ovarian cancer cells to which it was applied.
Colon Cancer Prevention A study at the University of Minnesota found that ginger may slow the growth of colorectal cancer cells.
Morning Sickness A review of several studies has concluded that ginger is just as effective as vitamin B6 in the treatment of morning sickness.
Motion Sickness Remedy Ginger has been shown to be an effective remedy for the nausea associated with motion sickness.
Cold and Flu Prevention and Treatment Ginger has long been used as a natural treatment for colds and the flu. Many people also find ginger to be helpful in the case of stomach flus or food poisoning, which is not surprising given the positive effects ginger has upon the digestive tract.
Menstrual Cramp Relief In Chinese medicine, ginger tea with brown sugar is used in the treatment of menstrual cramps.
Prevention of Diabetic Nephropathy A study done on diabetic rats found that those rats given ginger had a reduced incidence of diabetic nephropathy (kidney damage).
This versatile culinary plant can provide a real health boost to anyone. But exactly why are red onions good for you? This article sheds light on the health benefits of onions, particularly red onions, and explains how the nutrients in onions — including quercetin, allicin and chromium — can protect against cancer, fight fungi and bacteria, promote cardiovascular health, reduce high blood pressure and insulin resistance, and aid in weight loss. Nutrition facts for red onions (GI rating, vitamin and mineral content, etc) are provided at the end of the article.
Quercetin in red onions provides wide ranging health benefits.
Red and yellow onions are one of the best natural sources of quercetin, a bioflavonoid that is particularly well suited for scavenging free radicals. Aside from its antioxidant properties, quercetin has been found to possess cancer fighting, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. It has shown promising potential for preventing and controlling the formation of intestinal polyps, suppressing the rhinoviruses that are the underlying cause of common cold, treating psoriasis, and inhibiting the replication of viruses including the herpes simplex virus that can cause cold sores. It has also been shown to reduce the risk of stomach cancer: according to one study, half an onion a day could reduce the risk of stomach cancer by 50%.
In addition to quercetin, red onions provide allicin, a potent health-promoting compound that is found in onions and other members of the Allium family when the plant is crushed or chopped. Allicin has been shown to promote cardiovascular health, prevent and treat cancer, and reduce high blood pressure. It has also been suggested that allicin could be helpful for people with dandruff due to its anti-fungal properties.
Onions are a rich source of chromium, a trace mineral that can help control glucose levels. This is great news for those who suffer from insulin resistance as chromium is an essential for insulin activity in carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. A lack of chromium-rich foods, such as onions, in diet may lead to insulin resistance and impaired blood sugar control and may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, there is some evidence suggesting that severe chromium deficiency may make weight loss more difficult or even cause weight gain.
With a glycemic index (GI) rating of 10, onions are considered a low glycemic food. The glycemic index ranks carbohydrate containing foods based on how quickly they raise blood sugar levels. Foods are rated between 0 and 100, and the higher the rating, the quicker the food will release energy and cause blood glucose levels to rise. The glycemic index was initially created to help diabetics decide what foods are best for them, but now also many weight conscious people are using the concept of glycemic index to help them lose weight and improve their health. By choosing low GI foods — such as red onions — over high GI carbs, you can regulate blood sugar and insulin levels, which in turn causes the body to store less fat. Studies also suggest that stable insulin levels can contribute to slower aging, lower blood pressure and improved cholesterol levels. | 2019-04-22T06:19:40 | https://miraclejuiceblog.com/benefits-of-the-ingredients-in-the-miracle-juice-remedy/ |

Disclaimer: Paramount own them, I am only meddling for my own entertainment and really mean no harm - sorry.
Three hours ago she had decided that he had to come to her. She had made the offer of support, a friend to talk to, a shoulder to cry on if he wanted, but she couldn't force him to accept, no matter how much she thought he needed the catharsis. That had to be his choice.
But, she had waited, in the hopes that he might find his way to her door. Waiting had given the Captain of Voyager time to dwell on the decisions that had led to this, on the things that might have been different, she had allotted blame and accepted her share of the guilt. But in the end her introspection came to nothing, the damage was still done. She had already decided that if she had the time over again there was little she would change, certainly nothing that would alter the fate of the young woman who had gone so bravely to her death. There was nothing in her ruminations that would provide comfort to her First Officer - and heaven only knew what he was feeling at the moment.
Those last moments had been a blur of blood, mud and desperation. Her priority had been to rescue her downed away team and get the hell out of there. Perhaps she shouldn't have been so surprised to learn that in the time they had been on the Planet they had enlisted some help. But she hadn't missed the expression of fear that had crossed Chakotay's face when the young woman, Lorea, had taken a handful of companions and attempted to draw off some enemy fire, while she and B'elanna had moved the away team across the large stretch of open ground to the shuttle.
Not a suicide mission on the face of it, but Chakotay had been on the Planet for several days, knew the circumstances and the terrain better than she did, and he clearly did not think Lorea would be coming back - and he had been right.
Knowing Chakotay as she did she hadn't been surprised at the closeness she had witnessed in those few tattered moments. He had a way of drawing people to him, she was no more immune to that than those who had followed him in the Maquis, or the women who had drifted in and out of his life. Lorea and her group had been freedom fighters of a sort, people Chakotay would have had a natural empathy with. He might have found their way of doing things refreshingly direct after the rules and regulations of Voyager. She had seen the way Lorea looked at Chakotay, seen the currents of respect and attraction that had flowed between them. Then it had not been the right time to be jealous and now was even less appropriate, given that Lorea was dead but... no one was perfect.
The doorbell chimed and as she called for her visitor to enter she tried to rearrange her features into an expression she hoped was appropriate for Chakotay's mood and wished that her feelings could be reshuffled so easily.
'Chakotay.' Her scrutiny of her First Officer was careful, but discrete. He looked tired and edgy, the injuries he'd sustained during the mission had been healed, or at least the physical wounds had been. 'Can I get you a drink?' He shook his head and remained standing, looking irresolute, giving her the impression that if she said the wrong thing he might bolt.
'What's to say,' his bitter laugh was far more disturbing than his words.
'Are you my friend Kathryn? Sometimes it feels as though you are my most deadly adversary.' The words forced her breath out of her lungs and her voice was shaky as she replied.
'There's been a temporary cease-fire, a truce, there won't be any fighting tonight.' She reached across and took his hand. 'I am your friend tonight.' He closed his eyes out of relief, or perhaps to hide what she might have seen there.
'But what about tomorrow?' He whispered.
Chakotay leant into the velvety softness that dwelt behind his eyelids and wished he could find it more comforting and calming. He shouldn't have come here like this, shouldn't have said all those fanciful things. Now she would be bound to ask him what he had meant when he had described them as adversaries. The long and painful discussion which would inevitably ensue was the last thing he needed tonight.
But she surprised him, as she was wont to do, asking instead. 'How did you make contact with them, Lorea and her group?' he opened his eyes, despairing of the energy the simple movement took.
'Just the salient points, Commander.' She placed a slight emphasis on his title, striking him back for using her title just a moment before. The games they played with each other, the ways they could find to hurt each other were the stuff of his late night musings, they did not sit well with her presence. His eyes drifted shut again, a surrender to the knowledge that if he kept looking at her he would remember how much he could want her.
But he scene that played out behind his eyelids was hardly a comfortable diversion. He found himself on a dusty, shell marked hillside, taking cover with the rest of the away team in a small stone building with massive holes ripped into it from the blasts of projectile weapons.
That admission was too close to home, too personal. She squeezed his hand, just to remind him of her presence and he was glad he had found the strength to come to her. No one healed him the way she did.
'You blame yourself for her death?' It was a difficult question to answer, not least because it was a reminder that she had died, while he had been talking about her it was easier to remember her as full of life and vitality, even if that vitality was spurred on by a bitter anger.
'Kathryn,' he shook his head slightly, searching for a way to retreat, to not confront this now, when he was so tired. But her eyes were too compelling, had always been too compelling.
'Perhaps it's me that I'm worried about. I think I might very easily break.' She frowned, her face twisting into a grimace that was somehow more touching than he wanted to admit.
'You flatter yourself Captain. You've done to me only what I allowed to be done, your willing victim - as always.' The harshness escaped him without it intending to, pent up rage venting at the person closest to him.
'You do.' He tried to tell himself that he hadn't meant it to sound like an accusation, but he'd never been a good liar, honesty meant too much to him. There was a long silence and he wondered idly if she would strike him or just throw him out. But when he looked at her, her eyes were downcast and he could tell she was struggling with an admission, a painful truth.
'I would never do that, at our situation perhaps, but never at you.' He closed his eyes and turned his head so that he could press a kiss onto her palm. 'What are we going to do?' She breathed.
Panic fluttered through her, a hundred command and tactical considerations competing for her attention and silenced by one look at Chakotay's face - the expression in his eyes. 'Why is it you always seem to believe I'll do the right thing, in the end?' She enquired with a burst of mock outrage.
'Oh definitely - aside from all the technical stuff, it's my job to tell you when you're wrong - and you're wrong about us Kathryn.' Her fingers moved gently over his face until she pressed a gentle kiss onto his cheek.
'Quite a few people actually.' They were being flippant, silly, a total change in direction from the weighty discussion they had emerged from just a few moments before. He smiled and that was the moment she decided she was going to kiss him, she leaned towards his lips, but he drew away. | 2019-04-18T18:18:52 | http://www.angelfire.com/id2/morgan/gravity.html |

Too long seen as out-of-the-way, independent theatre in Worthing is quietly starting to make some noise.

You might only encounter the events sector a few times a year; maybe you regularly attend conferences, conventions, festivals, or corporate parties on special occasions. But for the events industry itself, every day is a special occasion. The events industry, built up around celebrations, has its own reason to celebrate: it is one of the most profitable sectors in the worldwide economy, bringing billions in revenue to destinations all over the world.
Take Chicago’s McCormick Place. This 2.6 million square foot event complex is at the centre of the city’s events ecosystem, playing host to thousands of events and contributing an estimated $1.7 billion a year to the Illinois economy. Without this single venue, Chicago (and Illinois in general) would be far worse off financially.
Similar venues can be found around the world. The events industry has established itself as an important, irreplaceable sector of the economy, and it’s likely to stay that way—at least for the near future.
How much does the events industry generate?
Sticking with McCormick Place as an example, the aforementioned $1.7 billion estimate comes from a study conducted by the venue’s owners, McPier. McPier released the figures as debate was raging over the state budget, as a reminder to the Illinois legislature of just how important the venue is to the city. It’s not just the money that the government needs to bear in mind; the same report also suggests that McCormick Place is responsible for 15,000 jobs in the Windy City.
McCormick Place may be the largest events venue in North America, but there are other venues with enough clout to influence governments. A little closer to home, the ExCel Centre in London generated £5 billion of economic activity in its first five years. The UK events sector as a whole is said to be worth $42.3 billion to the economy, supporting 570,000 jobs, and making up over 35% of the UK visitor economy, according to figures from Eventbrite.
Back in the US, the events industry is estimated to generate more wealth than air transport, sound recording, performing arts, spectator sports and the motion picture industry. With figures this large, it’s no surprise that the events sector is due to expand even further over the next few years.
Where will the events industry go from here?
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics has forecast the country’s events industry to grow 44% by 2020, a higher level of growth than many other industries. In the UK, the Conference and Incentive Travel (C&IT)’s State of the Industry report found that 83% of events agencies expected to grow in headcount in 2016. 63% of corporate event planners expected the number of events they hold to grow year-on-year.
It’s not just in the world’s largest cities, like London and Chicago, that events are picking up. Further up north, a new arts, leisure and conference hub is being opened in Gateshead. The local council estimates the complex will generate £30 million for the area and create 500 new jobs. With centres like this opening up across the country, it appears nothing could slow down the growth of this thriving industry. Unfortunately, there is one particular event on the horizon which might puncture the events bubble.
What might slow the events industry down?
In the UK, one seemingly unavoidable factor that has created uncertainty in almost every industry: Brexit negotiations are making very little progress. A “bad deal” or “no deal” situation could drive the major players in many industries towards relocating to EU member countries, taking millions of pounds and thousands of jobs with them in the process.
Just 30 days after the Brexit referendum, the Meetings Industry Association (MIA) conducted a survey which found that 92% of respondents had already experienced a drop or freeze in enquiries. The C&IT found that 20% of event planners saw uncertainty around the EU as the biggest threat to the industry. The reasons for this are manifold.
First there is employment; many UK hospitality workers come from EU member states. With the state of their rights unclear, there’s a chance many of them could be forced to return to their countries of origin. However, post-Brexit limitations on travel will also herald a significant change. If international guests cannot travel freely to the UK after Brexit, far fewer global events will be taking place in the country.
For now, though, the events industry seems buoyant. And just as McCormick Place aimed to influence Illinois legislature, other government bodies are taking note. Gateshead’s new arts, leisure and conference hub will cost millions of pounds to build, but £25 million of that will come from the local council. Brexit or no Brexit, this country is banking on events. | 2019-04-23T16:14:14 | http://www.abcmoney.co.uk/2017/10/24/why-it-pays-to-get-involved-in-the-events-industry/ |

"Good Value for money. Clean & comfortable accommodation. Friendly & efficient owners. Very nice breakfast. Well recommended.
Tracing its history back to Roman Times the village of Rowlands Castle in Hampshire has led a relatively quiet life, the Romans had settled here and the area was known for its brick and tile manufacture. The town of Rowlands Castle grew as a result of the London to Portsmouth railway line in the 19th century, this enabled people to commute and today Portsmouth is around half an hour away by train. Today it is a relatively quiet residential village with a few local shops and a couple of local pubs one of which is allegedly managed by a former Van Morrison guitarist and is close to the village green. The village takes its name from a Motte the remains of which are east of the village, there was a castle here in the 11th /12th century but had all but disappeared by the 15th century and when the railway arrived the balance of the site was damaged and there is little evidence of its remains. Ask someone to describe a typical English village and there is little doubt that it would include a village green, good local pubs and shops with a close sense of community and they could actually be describing Rowlands Castle. | 2019-04-19T12:36:23 | http://information-britain.co.uk/county24/townguideRowlands%20Castle/ |

This year was well on its way to being a banner year for Louisiana crawfish until a hard freeze in early January changed everything.
What the Louisiana crawfish industry desperately needs now is some sunshine and warmer overnight temperatures to get the crawfish moving. Mudbugs are cold-blooded creatures and the cooler the water; the less biologic activity is taking place in the ponds and basins. It is estimated that for every 10 degrees of water temperature, activity doubles in the ponds.
Even with a cloudy supply of farm-raised crawfish and an uncertainty about when the basin will have water diverted to it, the demand for crawfish in the Capital area is starting to pick up. Mardi Gras has come and gone and spring is near. Warmer temperatures won’t just bring more crawfish; they will also bring more crawfish boils, all-you-can-eat crawfish specials, tail pinchers, and head suckers. Oh yes Baton Rouge, Crawfish Season is here!
Jay Ducote stands with two batches of live crawfish at Tony's Seafood. Each basket holds up to 500 lbs. of crawfish!
I recently took a look at the Baton Rouge crawfish scene to see where I could find exceptional boiled crawfish in the Red Stick. My first stop, which should be no surprise to anybody who knows seafood in Baton Rouge, was at Tony’s Seafood on Plank Road. Tony’s is best described as an institution, and is in fact the largest seafood market in the Gulf South. Started as a produce stand by Tony Pizzolato in 1959, by the early 1980’s Tony’s had transformed into the thriving seafood market that we know it as today.
The fine people at Tony’s gave me a tour of the facility including a chance to stand behind the counter, and a glimpse at their gigantic walk in cooler where they keep live crawfish. Tony’s cooks their crawfish in batches of up to 500 lbs. at a time in giant baskets and boiling pots. On a prime day, Tony’s can boil up to 30 pots, or as much as 15,000 lbs. of crawfish! Tony’s has great crawfish for the average palate. While they are mass-boiled, the flavor is great and extremely edible. However, if you are the kind of crawfish eater that wants their lips to burn eyes to water when eating spicy, red mudbugs, then Tony’s “friendly” spice may not be quite what you are looking for.
A large batch of freshly boiled crawfish at Tony's Seafood is ready to be served.
My next stop occurred down Florida Boulevard at Randy Montalbano’s Seafood and Catering. Randy Montalbano, Jr. greeted me as I walked in to his restaurant and offered a quick tour of his kitchen. Although the scale of Montalbano’s operation is nowhere close to that of Tony’s, their seafood easily rivals that of their larger counterpart. Founded in June of 2006 by Randy and his father, Randy Montalbano, Sr., Montalbano’s specializes in boiled seafood and other Cajun dishes, providing off-site catering and in-store family-friendly dining. During the peak of the season, Montalbano’s averages around 10,000 lbs. of boiled crawfish per week. Randy let me sample some of his crawfish to get a taste of his spice and flavor offering. Let me tell you friends, C’est Bon! Montabano’s crawfish left my lips tingling without feeling overwhelmed by extreme heat. The crawfish had an excellent flavor with a great balance of salt and spice.
Boiled Crawfish at Randy Montalbano's Seafood and Catering... C'est Bon!
While exploring the Red Stick area for crawfish, I also felt like it would be good to head out to the “suburbs” where I came across Jimbo’s Seafood on Jones Creek Road. Teresa Guerin kindly welcomed me and gave a detailed tour of their crawfish business. Like Montalbano’s, Jimbo’s boils farm-raised and basin crawfish to perfection. Jimbo’s has been serving up fresh and boiled seafood in the same location for the past 16 years and has built a loyal clientele. Teresa showed me firsthand how Jimbo’s hand-picks their crawfish and purges them in salt water to make sure their customers get nothing but the best. After watching preparation, Teresa served me a batch of fresh crawfish. Along side the crawdaddies came beautifully boiled corn and potatoes that are always a perfect complement. Jimbo’s batch impressed me just as much as Montalbano’s. I don’t think they had quite the heat, but they had every bit as much flavor. I wouldn’t hesitate ordering from them next time I wanted a few pounds of mudbugs to go!

Hopefully some warm weather will bring in a bountiful harvest so that we can all enjoy this Crawfish Season like we’ve come to know and love in South Louisiana. I hope you enjoy it as much as I will!

Last week I had to virtualize an old Dell PowerEdge R200 running FreeBSD 7.4-RELEASE-p10 i386.
As usual I tried to use VMware vCenter Standalone Converter but unfortunately in this case didn't worked.
1) I've create a new VM on the vcenter with the same disk size of the physical server.
Beware that traffic is clear between hosts but if you are in a LAN it is probably ok.
On the fist attempt I've tried to compress the traffic to increase the performance but using old hardware it performed worst. | 2019-04-25T16:05:12 | https://blog.anzani.net/index.php?id=hot-convert-freebsd-7-to-vm-on-vcenter-p2v |
It had been, what one could call a beautiful day, today, however, like all days they must come to an end. For the likes of Cero Telca and the living, this meant that they too must slumber if they wish to experience the next day feeling well. With sleep, came the final step to it all, which was hopefully a wonderful dream, instead of a bitter nightmare. It was something, that Cero pondered about a little bit, while awake, was there someone out there that interacted with these dreams of the world, it has been shown that people can accomplish just about anything in this world. Even Shadin Yuudeshi, has shown the power of bringing thoughts and daydreams into a reality in Karakura’s imagination districts, it was an odd feeling to finally miss those kind of places now.
Now, Cero’s own imagination was coming to life, though clearly not as flashy as it was, merely a dream, where it normally belongs. The landscape was filled with a number of bright buildings and a young Cero covered the area with unrecognizable people, that in his dream state, were merely there to give that feeling of crowds walking along the streets, as a young Cero was clearly trying to portray Karakura Central. He could be seen wearing his old Yayjuu uniform, which was custom made to be the reverse side of his school uniform at the time. Looking through his watch phone, he was clearly not sure for what as he continued back to his destination, perhaps a place of where this dream will truly take place as one watching would see that the sky of this dreamscape was covered in stars like those off of a painter’s canvas, such was from a gift of watching his childhood friend, paint it, over and over again.
”What even is today again?” Would be the words forming in his mind, clearly in a confused state in the dream, but dreams never really gave much time to realize it was a dream.
Cali sure as hell was having the time of her life. She had ended up in what she assumed to be a child's dream, who apparently liked dogs, quite a lot. Made her think, seeing an absolute swarm of dogs doing, well, dog things. Obviously none of them noticed her; this was more of an auto-pilot dream, just something playing out with no interaction. Even if that technicality was in her awareness, she was interested in the weirdly various canids.
"..Hmm." She pondered, opening the way out, "I want a puppy..."
She pulled away, reentering the realm of doors wrapped within the soft embrace of an eternity of stars and galaxies, proceeding to search for something else interesting. She had no idea how long she was popping open doors and watching dreams, with the occasional talking to someone. She tested ever so often, being surprised that her dream hopping could take several days or just a single night. Well, it made sense, of course a realm of dreams would have a distorted perception of time. She sometimes just didn't want to deal with the waking realm, even though at times she revisited the realm she had been introduced to by Khala, and attempted to proselytize (and failing due to being a bit too weak in the charisma department, no matter how much she farced it.).
She was a bit carefree, looking through the private area that are dreams of many, until she hit a not nonsensical, or totally weird dream. That was common, most dreams were just too garbled and confusing to really grasp what was going on, or so weak that it wasn't worth peeking into. Though back to this dream, she saw a city, well, one she hadn't ever been to at least. Could always just be a randomly created one. Regardless, she saw lots of people walking around, though she knew upon sight they weren't actual people, which only lead her to walk through them, curious if this dream was more on the autonomous end. It could just not be, then again.
Well, that's what she thought til she sensed a dulled presence, well, more of a derealized one, probably not sure if they're awake or asleep. Well, wouldn't hurt to tell them where they were! Joyfully, she hopped over, hopes a bit high for someone to speak to, stopping to see a rather confused young man, just as she expected. Well, the confused part, she didn't know if it'd be a guy, gal, or some universe in between or outside. Calypso was all of those, technically.
"Hello there..!" Her tone was gentle, a bit nervous though, nervousness being common in her speech, though she did a cute little wave, "U-uhm, can you see me? I mean, u-uhm.. You're dreaming right now, do ya know that..?"
Cero still locked within his dream, was not sure what to make of it, til he was approached by a girl in black and red? She seemed to have noticed him at least, perhaps she was a lost spirit in this city of the living, was the first thing that came to his mind. That, however didn’t seem to be the case, when she explained to him that he was dreaming, and as for seeing her, he believed that he was looking right at her now. ”I don’t know who you are spirit, but you are in the city of Karakura, I know it might look like a city of dreams but it is very much real.” He explained this to her, in very much a confused state, he began to ponder, “is this a dream?”. Cero decided given the situation in any case it would still be within good measure to introduce himself to the person in front of him. ”I am Cero Telca, Leader of the Yayjuu, in any case, do you need help with something?” He decided to go with the best logical answer and ask.
Cero did find it a little odd that he was wearing his old things, caught in deep thought, he looked to his side and noticed that his Zanpaktou was no longer present, like it always was. The voices in his head that were almost always willing to chatter or give some sway to his instincts, were dead silent in this case, a single familar voice echoed. ”Cero we have a lot to talk about, don’t we? That singular voice made him freeze up a little inside, he pondered, when was the last time he heard that voice, it was many years ago. What was this feeling like as if I was experiencing the past, or was it so much more, and who is this spirit before him. So many questions that he felt like he had no answers to, “was this normal?”.
Calypso's eyes were instantly filled with puzzlement, a confused pout forming on her face as he had called her a spirit, and affirmed this city was plenty real, and not a dream. He was probably only half aware, that's her only guess as to why he still behaved 'in character', so to speak. Oh well, she could always show him that he was just dreaming, wouldn't hurt, she was bored and wanted to talk to someone.
The Yayjuu, huh? Calypso couldn't help but put two and two together; he was dreaming of Karakura, so in all likeliness... That could mean whatever group he was part of could be an enemy of Shadow Fall.. And thus the Asthavons... Calypso wasn't a liar, but an introduction required two... Just leave out the surname, he probably wouldn't notice, hopefully.
"My name's Calypso~" She spoke sweetly, but then pranced up to some random walking passerby, "But i'm serious! You're dreaming, look!"
She waved her hands against some people walking, her hands clearly going through them while she looked like she was having WAY too much fun, "These are just constructs that your mind created! It's normal for your brain to put people you've seen on the street in your dreams." She smirked, skipping back over, "Eeh, not many people can lucid dream right off the bat, sometimes the dream just plays itself." She couldn't help but shrug casually.
"Also, i'm not a Plus; I'm a Danava." Though her eyes went round from realization, "...Wait, was all of that too overwhelming for you..? Im sor-"
She quickly cut off when she heard the voice, but she didn't quite recognize it, but saw it did bother Cero, "H-hey, you don't gotta freak out! It's likely just something from your.. um... Subconscious... Mind.." She flashed her hands up, motioning a 'calm down' gesture, "I-I mean, it is real, yeah, but.. It can't hurt you! At least.. I hope."
There were not many things in life that Cero wouldn’t believe, and in one of the few occasions where, he refused, everything came back at him. The person before him, named themselves, Calypso, and a Davana at that, why were they in his dream, he pondered. He didn’t have much time though as a voice that he had no heard in what felt like ages, was only a mere five years. ”I’m sorry, you can hear him too, Calypso?” He asked, pondering how much of this was real, and how much of this was fake, merely a trick of his mind. It was only as if moments passed long enough for her to answer, before the voice spoke again. ”We have no time for games, this is your dream, Cero, this is our dream.” A voice of his own explained, what seemed to only be, an even younger version of himself, appearing through the street, and wandering towards them. “This is all in my head, then.” Cero replied and nodded his head in affirmation. ”Thank you for waking us up, but we will leave for now.” The younger Cero would look over to Calypso as he spoke, his eyes looking very tired surprisingly. After everything was mentioned, the younger one would wander away with a yawn and fade within the crowd. From what the Davana could tell that person was as real spiritually as the person right in front of her.
Cero still looking confused followed his younger self, with his eyes, up to the point of him vanishing, and then returned his gaze to Calypso. ”This all feels like one weird dream.” He stated, not really sure how else, to explain, what they just went through, with the Voice and his younger self. Perhaps the mysteries would be answered in due time, like his dream had stated, certainly, only time will tell.
Calypso was currently concentrated on keeping Cero from freaking out, trying to keep a kind smile on her face as she tried to make it clear that whatever spoke had near to no chance of being dangerous. People tended to experience dreams as real life, and she wasn't sure if this guy had anything knocking in the noggin. If that was the case then it would make things a tad odder, and probably bad for her considering she can get hurt in this state as if it were a true threat in the waking world.
"Of course I can, I mean, i'm experiencing the same dream you are.. If that makes any sense, heh..." She was a little nervous that he still didn't seem very in, so to speak. Speaking to the vaguely aware was a weird thing, being misconstrued with something or someone else. She was visibly spooked when the voice spoke again, her gaze whipping around to look for a source, soon lying on a younger version of the man in front of her. Her head slightly tilted as she tried to figure out what this represented, but she couldn't help but feel... Like this wasn't just a memory. It sensed as another being, just as real as Cero, present here. She couldn't say this was the first time she encountered something like this, if anything sometimes the one she was speaking to was an additional or two apparitions within one's soul and mind.
She was pulled from her thoughts when Cero finally acknowledged what he was experiencing, releasing a sigh of relief, her body slumping forward to further exasperate her relief. She had no idea how long that would go til she just straight came out.
Calypso straightened up, holding her hands on her shoulders as she grinned at Cero's comment, "Well, that's exactly what this is. Just a dream," She turned to fully look at him, "Soooo.. What exactly are you?" She looked around the scenery, "By the sights of Karakura City... My only guesses are a selection of... Human, Shinigami, Quincy.. Maybe?" She chuckled, "I dunno i'm just listing based off what's allowed through the barrier with no trouble..."
A dream, a creation of the mind, of the subconscious level, a whole world that is rarely explored by those that inhabit it. Yet here, Cero was before a Davana of some sort, visiting him. His mind twirled in its thoughts of what could be occurring, but not much made sense yet. From what he could recall Davana’s were of a particular concept and that is where everything they do, comes from. The person before him seemed friendly in nature, but he acted with a little bit of caution in mind, this Dream was his own, at least he has been told and believed. That doesn’t mean thing couldn’t go wrong for him in other regards, but he was a bit discouraged that this demon was sent to hurt specifically him, by the way he asked what he was. He pondered for a moment as to whether he should answer this question truthfully or not, to which he decided why not, he had already revealed his name.
”I am a Quincy Ziamachi, more than one soul resides in my body.” He stated to the Davana. He tried his best to keep his cool as he spoke to her, trying to remind himself that Mana, was the only demon that would absolutely bring him harm. But that didn’t exclude her from every ill intention. ”Who are you though to wander into my dreams?” He asked due to all his thoughts. “I do recall, your name is Calypso.” He added and finished with. For the young Hohl Arquero, it always seemed like he was chasing after answers on after the other, with the people, he has recently met.
She was still rather puzzled when the more youthful Cero vanished into the crowds. If anything, she kind of wished for the apparition within the man's mind to stick around a little longer, out of selfish interest of what and who he was. Calypso didn't feel much shame in that idea, she wasn't hurting anyone after all. Oh well, she still had this guy to be interested in!
Hey eyes widened when he stated he was a Quincy Ziamachi, a look of pure childish awe on her face as she took in a faint gasp, "Woooh.. That's kinda cool." She had seldomly heard of Quincy, much less Ziamachi. She couldn't help but learn about them, but that was different from actually staring at one! Or well, staring within one. When he questioned as to why she would wander into his dreams, she felt his tenseness, even if he tried to hide it.
"H-hey, don't worry! I'm not here to do anything weird, I swear!" She waved her hands in front of her in a hands up position, "I do this every night, yknow? Just um, going into random people's dreams... I don't really.. Uh... Have much else to do while asleep."
Taking a step or two he tried to move his dreamscape body, learning if it was indeed the same as his real one. His experiment seemed to be done correctly, but why did his dream feel so different from any of the others he had. Much like how he can’t recall much of his dreams, he could not recall where he was going in this city of imagination. He could begin to tell it isn’t an exact replica, so it would be difficult to guess as he looked up at the buildings. Perhaps Calypso could at least help him finish his dream, whatever it was. ”Do you have any idea, where I was going, or what I was going to do, Calypso?” He decided to ask since he also wondered how time even passed in dreams, did they perhaps, have all the time, they could ever want.
So many questions, and perhaps, for once, so much time to go with it. It was all of the answers, he received.
Calypso's fingers laced and unlaced anxiously as she stared at Cero, a nervous smile on her face. She didn't want him thinking she was some weird spy or something, she didn't even know what something like the Yayjuu was. Apparently he was the leader of it or something, but as far as she knew, it was something that happened before she was born, and lost relevance. She perked up when Cero had asked her a rather good question, if she didn't dream, which caused her to smile softly and nod.
"Yeah, I'm not supposed to dream. I mean... It happens sometimes, but it really shouldn't be. So I guess it's better to put it as, I can, but.. Um.. I shouldn't be." Her fidgeting appeared more restless as she mentioned this fact, her voice fluttering. She was forced to think back to those dreams, which mostly highlighted her insecurities and fears; even if they were no longer crippling her on day to day life since ripping a portion of her potential free, it still existed, and she still grasped the calming light that Khala had instilled in her being tightly at those times, like a metaphysical comfort item.
Then Cero asked another question, her sensing his desire to see the dream to the end. The demon tapped her pale chin, tilting her head, "Not sure.. All you said to me was that you were the leader of something called the Yayjuu, and your name... Nothing about where you were going or what you wanted to do..." She frowned, "I'm not too skilled in digging into that stuff, yknow, finding stuff in people's dreams." Her eyes darted around for any anomalies, "It just looked like you were reliving a memory, or several memories, or somethin' like that. Dunno." | 2019-04-19T04:22:07 | http://www.platinumhearts.net/t19791-dream-a-better-dream-cali-cero |

“When writing an email, every word matters, and useless prose doesn’t. Be crisp in your delivery. If you are describing a problem, define it clearly. Doing this well requires more time, not less. You have to write a draft then go through it and eliminate any words that aren’t necessary….”Clean out your inbox constantly. How much time do you spend looking at your inbox, just trying to decide which email to answer next? How much time do you spend opening and reading emails that you have already read? Any time you spend thinking about which items in your inbox you should attack next is a waste of time. Same with any time you spend rereading a message that you have already read (and failed to act upon).When you open a new message, you have a few options: Read enough of it to realize that you don’t need to read it, read it and act right away, read it and act later, or read it later (worth reading but not urgent and too long to read at the moment). Choose among these options right away, with a strong bias toward the first two. Remember the old OHIO acronym: Only Hold It Once. If you read the note and know what needs doing, do it right away. Otherwise you are dooming yourself to rereading it, which is 100 percent wasted time. If you do this well, then your inbox becomes a to-do list of only the complex issue. To make sure that the bloat doesn’t simply transfer from your inbox to your “take action” folder, you must clean out the action items every day. This is a good evening activity. Zero items is the goal, but anything less than five is reasonable. Otherwise you will waste time later trying to figure out which of the long list of things to look at.”…Handle email in LIFO order (Last In First Out). Sometimes the older stuff gets taken care of by someone else….Make it easy to follow up on requests. When you send a note to someone with an action item that you want to track, copy yourself, then label the note “follow up.” That makes it easy to find and follow up on the things that haven’t been done; just resend the original note with a new intro asking “Is this done?”…”Help your future self search for stuff. If you get something you think you may want to recall later, forward it to yourself along with a few keywords that describe its content. Think to yourself, How will I search for this later? Then, when you search for it later, you’ll probably use those same search terms. This isn’t just handy for emails, but important documents too. Jonathan scans his family’s passports, licenses, and health insurance cards and emails them to himself along with descriptive keywords. Should any of those things go missing during a trip, the copies are easy to retrieve from any browser. | 2019-04-20T16:44:36 | http://21cent.ru/3421 |

Gamers know that their systems are the royalty within the gaming realm: a high-performing, speedy laptop can mean the difference between winning or losing. So understandably both casual and serious gamers alike are often willing to spend the extra costs on either customizing their own systems or buying ready-made gaming laptops.
But you don’t have to break your budget when there are affordable gaming laptop options for under $1,000. From HP OMEN to HP Pavilion gaming laptops, we have plenty of customizable gaming PCs within your budgetary reach - offering you all the top features to put you ahead of the competition and give you a winning edge.
A highly respected member of the gaming-centric HP OMEN family, the HP OMEN 15.6-inch laptop is a great deal. It features an 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor, one of Intel’s fastest family of processors.
It offers a 1TB hard drive, 8GB of RAM, and Intel’s game-changing memory upgrade, Intel Optane™ memory, at 16GB PCIe® NVMe™ to accelerate system responsiveness and performance without sacrificing your hard drive’s storage.
The graphics card is an NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1050, part of the high-performing GeForce GTX 10 series that help deliver awesome PC gaming experiences.
The 15.6-inch diagonal display has Full High Definition (FHD) at 1080p or optional 4K resolution and is anti-glare, micro-edge, and energy-efficient WLED-backlit for your viewing pleasure.

For a little bit more, you can get the HP OMEN 17.3-inch laptop with the Intel Core i7 processor, 8GB of memory, 1TB hard drive, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 graphics.
The 17.3-inch FHD display gives you a larger viewing area and 120 Hz refresh rate to play, fight, and explore without experiencing frustrating lag and image ghosting.
Just like the 15.6-inch model, you get a backlit keyboard with customizable macros and 26-key rollover, ensuring that your every keystroke is detected.

This is one of the lowest-priced and affordable gaming laptops under $1,000 in the HP Pavilion line. The HP Pavilion 15t Quad gaming laptop is an ideal baseline laptop to satisfy all of your gaming needs. It’s equipped with a solid, responsive 8th Generation Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 1TB hard drive.
An edge-to-edge 15.6-inch display and a 2GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 graphics card ensure that you’re clearly seeing your gaming action - and because it’s not integrated, you can easily swap out the graphics card if a newer one comes out in a few years.
With front-firing speakers, HP Audio Boost, and tuning by B&O Play, you’ll enjoy rich and authentic audio.
Connectivity won’t be an issue with fast throughput thanks to WiFi supporting gigabit speeds on select models. Nor will battery life with up to 10 hours and 15 minutes with the baseline FHD display, and up to 7 hours and 30 minutes with the optional 4K UHD panel.
The HP Pavilion 15t Hexa Core gaming laptop comes in at as great a price as the 15t above. It’s designed to help you excel at any task - and gaming is certainly one of them. A 6-core Intel Core i7 processor (8750H), 8GB of memory, a 1TB hard drive, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 with 2GB of discrete graphics work together so you’ve got more power and performance to play.
It’s got a striking 15.6-inch display that lets you immerse yourself into the visuals of your gameplay, and crisp audio and tuning with B&O Play. With distinct LED lighting and matching accents, this laptop is built to make a statement. Choose from two colors: Shadow Black with Ghost White or Ultra Violet.
And you can take it wherever you want to go. A 10-hour-plus battery life gives you plenty of time to not have to worry about charging it up.

This post will guide you how to use Excel TIME function with syntax and examples in Microsoft excel.
The Excel TIME function returns a date in serial number format for a particular time (the hour, minute and second).
The serial number returned by TIME function is a value between 0 and 0.99988426. And the result of 0 represents 12:00:00 AM and the result of 0.99988426 represents 11:59:59 PM.
So this function can be used to create a time with hours, minutes, and seconds. And it also will return a decimal number representing a particular time in excel.
The TIME function is a build-in function in Microsoft Excel and it is categorized as a DATE and TIME Function.
The TIME function is available in Excel 2016, Excel 2013, Excel 2010, Excel 2007, Excel 2003, Excel XP, Excel 2000, Excel 2011 for Mac.
Hour -This is a required argument. A number from 0 (zero) to 32767 representing the hour. If the value is greater than 23 and then it will be divided by 24 and the remainder will be treated as the hour value. For example, the TIME(28,0,0) is equal to TIME(4,0,0).
Minute – This is a required argument. A number from 0 to 32767 representing the minute. If the minute value is greater than 59 and it will be converted to hours and minutes (it means that every 60 minutes will add one hour to hour value). For example, TIME(1,75,0) = TIME(2,15,0).
Second – This is a required argument. A number from 0 to 32767 representing the second. If the second value is greater than 59 and it will be converted to hours, minutes, and seconds (it means that every 60 seconds will add 1 minute to minute value). For example, TIME(1,20,75) = TIME(1,21,15) .
The below examples will show you how to use Excel TIME function to create a decimal number representing a particular time. | 2019-04-20T08:35:30 | https://www.excelhow.net/excel-time-function.html |

La Maison française fait partie de la Romance Language House à REED. C'est le moment d'y penser, si vous voulez faire une demande pour une place à Reed pour l'année prochaine. Vous aurez l'occasion de pratiquer votre français dans un cours et dans la maison en dehors des cours.
Please contact Madame Hudson at hudsona@dickinson.edu, if you are interested in living in the Romance Language House.
The mission of the Romance Language House is to promote foreign language development within the campus community. Through living in an environment in which all house members speak multiple languages (Italian, French and Spanish), residents are encouraged to speak and interact in their respective foreign languages. Members of the house also reach out to the college community through planning, organization, and promotion of the house events and through attendance of the weekly foreign language tables. The goal of the Romance Language House is to educate others on foreign languages and diverse cultures through living in a shared environment, as well as opening up that environment to the college community as a whole.
The French House (La Maison française) is a place where students interested in French may practice the language in a relaxed, friendly environment, while interacting with students of other Romance Languages and international students. Located in the Romance Languages House in Reed Hall, La Maison française provides a unique opportunity to live in a Francophone environment if you wish to practice and improve your French. The French overseas student assistant (OSA) lives at La Maison française, helping students practice their French and organizing social and cultural events with them.
For students who plan to go to France during their junior year, La Maison française is a great opportunity: they will be totally immersed in the culture even before going to France. Those returning from France will live in a truly international environment, where they will keep practicing their French while interacting with students from other countries, as they did during their junior year.
Residents must be committed to speak French at all times with the residents of La Maison française. Preference will be given to (1) rising juniors and seniors, (2) native speakers of French who are willing to share their culture with others, (3) students who have completed French 116 and are either French majors, or International Studies or Business Majors whose region of specialization is the Francophone world, (4) students who plan to go to Toulouse or Cameroon during their junior year.
Students must agree to adhere to the Dickinson College "Code of Conduct" (Student Handbook, 60-71), as well as pledge to speak French within La Maison française. Applicants must agree not to participate in the general Dickinson Housing lottery for the following year. The rooms will be assigned on the basis of seniority. Finally, students must be enrolled in a course in French during their year's residence in La Maison française.
If you want to be a part of La Maison française, apply to the Department of French by filling out the La maison française application. Email the application to Madame Hudson at hudsona@dickinson.edu by March 21, 2017. | 2019-04-26T12:22:21 | https://www.dickinson.edu/info/20115/french/727/campus_community |
Naples, New York, is located in Ontario County near Canandaigua Lake. It is considered part of the Finger Lakes Wine Region. It is best known for the Grimes Glen, which offers trails and waterfalls for every level hiker. Even though only two wineries are considered directly in Naples -- Imagine Moore Winery and Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards -- the region is home to more than 100 wineries. A number of options are available if you'd like to take wine tours while in this area.
Bus, train and even trolley wine tours are available in the Finger Lakes, but not a lot of options that do tours from Naples, New York. Canandaigua Bus Tours does go through Naples and gives you a number of options. This company will put together a tour if you have a group, or you can join one of their featured wine tours. Check with the company for details as the organized tours are subject to change.
More options are available to be picked up in Naples for a wine tour of this upstate New York area if you want to hire a private car. Quality Wine Tours will pick you up at your hotel and provide transportation for two to 12 passengers. You can choose one of the company's wine tour packages or rent the limousine by the hour and let the driver lead you around. FitzLimo also has similar options, with sedans, stretch limousines and even Ford Explorers available.
If you are interested in a personalized wine tour vacation but don’t have a limousine budget, consider staying at an inn or bed and breakfast. Although they don’t always advertise it, many innkeepers take their guests on tours, according to Meg Columbo of the Finger Lakes Visitors Connection. Check out Abner Adams House, Little Lakes Inn or one of the other accommodations near Naples and ask if they give tours of the wine region.
While the options are limited for wine tours in Naples, New York, additional companies operate in the surrounding areas. Consider enjoying the wineries and attractions of Naples and then spending the rest of your vacation in the nearby Geneva area, where there are more tour options, including the Wine Tour Trolley, which stops at five wineries and also includes a micro-brewery and a tour of one of the wineries.
The Naples Grape Festival is an annual event in the Finger Lakes Wine Region in celebration of the area’s harvest. This weekend-long festival takes place at the end of each September. It includes arts and crafts, music, food, and lots of wine to sample. You can take a tour of the Finger Lakes wineries without ever leaving the grounds.

How's your week going? Mine is going pretty well so far, been treating myself a little bit too much on new clothes but I guess that means more treats for you guys too in the form of photos!! I think it's starting to become an addiction, the thrill of winning an Ebay auction after waiting until the last minute and nabbing it at a bargain price.
I can't decide whether to do a big haul post/unboxing type thing or just to blog the items in OOTD posts, thoughts?
Anyway, I'm rambling, today I am bringing you another outfit post which a slight oriental theme and was inspired by this setting below.
The dress I am wearing is by ASOS, it is the ASOS Curve Swing Dress in Oriental Print With Lace and is unfortunately sold out now on the website. Sorry guys!!
I took these outfit shots at Myddelton House in Enfield with Charlotte again, which is becoming a new favourite location. I thought the yellows and oranges went perfectly with the print on the dress.
The dress is a good length and has a lot of movement at the bottom due to the swing style of the cut. The fabric is a nice satin with lace inserts, it's not too heavy so was perfect for a nice sunny day.
What are your thoughts on my outfit, do you like the oriental print?
I love Oriental print, and I love the photos you took of the park!
The dress is amazing I also seen it online but I thought it would be too short on me so I opted out on it . The garden that you are at is lovely , what a pretty place to take photos as well, and don't get too much stuff on ebay I got stuck on it and it was a "BAD Addiction" too! | 2019-04-20T12:33:43 | http://www.thehumanmannequin.co.uk/2014/05/dreams-of-orient.html |

100 PERSONAL QUESTIONS USING SIMPLE PRESENT, PRESENT CONTINUOUS AND SIMPLE PAST. | 2019-04-22T13:04:12 | https://www.eslprintables.com/buscador/author.asp?user=63973 |
We weren’t in the market for a new dog. It was 2005, I had finished vet school and was working full-time at a clinic in Bismarck.
And, Casey and Harry were really enough of a canine handful back in their youth.
But we usually aren’t looking for a new pet when another addition arrives.
The clinic I worked at had the unfortunate contract with Animal Control to put down the dogs deemed unadoptable.
Dogs with injuries so severe it was inhumane to keep them alive without an owner claiming them.
And sometimes, dogs who had just overstayed their welcome.
I was there that morning when the Animal Control officers came in the back door with this bouncing, tail-wagging, eager, fluffy black and white female spaniel.
“She’s aggressive. They’ll never find her a home. She might have Springer Rage,” was all he said.
But I caught the eye of the female officer hanging back and there were tears there.
“How long has she been there,” asked my boss, with the spaniel standing up on her back legs, reaching to him with her front paws.
The spaniel continued to run around the treatment area greeting the other veterinarians and technicians who had gathered. Another vet and I started to do a basic exam.
She was in good shape with clean teeth and ears and toe nails that weren’t too long. She was super friendly and started whipping out her tricks, like flopping over on her side, standing up and walking a little on her back legs towards us and sitting when asked to. No collar. No microchip.
Surprise and relief washed over me because this is the same boss who once told me I had to toughen-up when it came to euthanasias.
I had to start to do the drop-off ones where I didn’t even know if the person dropping the animal off was its owner.
Pets I had never met before.
Pets whose histories I was supposed to ignore as I watched the light leave their eyes.
The same boss who once told me I couldn’t save every animal.
So the friendly black and white love bug got to live in our isolation ward at the clinic for a week, making sure she didn’t break out in full Cujo mode. She never once growled at any of us and she was handled by the entire staff.
I started visiting her a bit more and told Alistair about her.
He came to visit and left with a dog. He named her Cleopatra.
She went home with him and immediately leapt up into the cab of the tractor, never leaving his side.
There’s that one rule: donate your reproductive organs at the door and get along. And she did and she does.
She never chased the cats and she was perfectly house trained.
Cleo immediately bonded with her Daddy.
But she slowly bonded with me as well and I will admit, it was fun having a dog inside the house again. Maybe not the hairs, but she fit into our household just perfectly.
With a bit of time Cleo started to develop her looks and affectations.
You know when she is rolling her eyes at you. She usually sighs when she is doing it.
Her voice is a southern drawl… think Blanche Dubois, with a slight lisp.
When we moved to Montana all 3 of the dogs thrived. There is something about having a forest for your backyard.
The boys chased deer but Cleo was never into that.
She must have been trained by someone because she suddenly stood on perfect point one time my husband had a sports channel on and they were doing bird calls with their kazoo thingies. She pointed beautifully at the TV and remained there like a statue, almost in a trance. Her hunting skills are wasted on us- we’re lovers not fighters.
Her middle names have come from her quirky behaviors.
Her adorable face is speckled with black dots. Her entire body is when she’s shaved but generally you only see the nose.
I have a bunch of freckles on my arms and we joke that one looks like the constellation Cassiopeia.
Cleo liked that name so its now one of hers.
The Carrie Bradshaw thing… if she’s in bed with you, shoes or slippers will somehow be there when you wake up. Or if you’re visiting in the living room, shoes will be brought forth. How can you not love a girl with that kind of passion for shoes?!
As for Houdini, I came home from work one winter night to have Cleo greet me on the driveway. The boys were still inside the locked kennel.
It didn’t take long to figure it out once I saw the snow load and the bare roof.
Diamond… well, she picked that one herself because diamonds are beautiful, rare and special. Just like Cleo.
One of the times when Alistair was trying to get UB to stop barking at a grizzly bear a few feet away the other dogs all came charging in.
Its the only time we’ve seen ferocity out of Casey, with his hackles up, foaming at the mouth.
Harry was somewhere, spinning circles in the distance, making his woo-woo sounds even though Alistair doesn’t remember actually seeing him.
Cleo loved being the shop dog over the past few years when I brought her to work.
Lynnie and Cleo… bath time again!
Sometimes she got the spa treatment from her best friend, Lynnie.
Sometimes she would have special visitors come to chat and they’d end up petting her the entire time.
Fireman Frank has an unworldly love of dogs and Cleo had him wrapped around her furry paws.
Other times she would just play with Mummy and Lynnie.
I love you, Lynnie! Shhhh… don’t tell Mummy about the treat with the Easy Cheese on it!
She was wonderful with other dogs and was fine when we had to crate her when it was time for surgeries or appointments with dogs or cats who maybe didn’t want to see her. She adored a box full of Schipperke puppies who were just a week old. Mind you, she claims that her uterus was “ripped untimely” from her body so maybe there was some maternal instinct there.
On extra special days at the clinic, though, she would see Matt, the UPS driver.
It wasn’t the biscuits because she doesn’t go ape with our farm delivery UPS guy.
Matt was different. Cleo even leapt up into the cab and the back of his truck on several occasions.
So there’s our aggressive, needs-to-be-euthanized dog. Doing her thing standing up on her legs, which is one of the tricks that saved her life. We don’t know how old she is but she hasn’t started to slow down at all. She likes to sleep and snuggle with me when Alistair is gone as part of the Usual Suspects (Loki, UB, Cleo, Mulder and Sport).
Cleo likes to help finish my scrambled eggs if I accidentally make too much.
She likes to watch me clean and feed the guinea pigs in the mornings, her ears perking when they whistle and tweet.
But she also likes sleeping outside with Casey and Harry and I think the 3 of them are a fun unit, even if she only occasionally plays with them outside. She’s usually off looking for a good spot to dig a hole, or a creek to romp in, or horse poop to eat, or someone to stand up against.
Aggression isn’t always aggression. Dogs growl for all sorts of reasons and I’m pretty sure Cleo was scared and lonely. She was obviously well-trained in many ways and I’m certain she was loved.
It saddens me only to think that a little girl or a cute older couple were her original owners but I would hope they believe she went to loving arms with loving hearts with a huge back yard and buddies of all species.
The only Fyfe who has brought home a trout in Montana. Granted, it was frozen but you have to give her credit!
Such a sweet story of a sweeter girl.
Thanks, Auntie Merielle! We all miss you! | 2019-04-23T19:52:46 | https://tanyafyfe.com/2014/07/27/cleopatra-cassiopeia-carrie-bradshaw-houdini-diamond-fyfe/ |
Have you encountered a problem with a NSPI file? Don’t you know which program opens a file with this extension? You will find all the information you need about working with a NSPI file here. In the further part of this page we have added a list of programs that should open your NSPI file. It is enough you choose a proper application for your operating system, download and install it.
Absolutely most often appearing reason that prevents you from opening the NSPI file is the lack of a proper application to support it in your operating system. It is notably the first thing you need to address. When one of the programs to support a NSPI file from the list is already installed, you can try to rerun the file. The system should display a message asking you to choose a primary application to support NSPI files. At this point we are looking for disk space where the application was installed in and we can link it with a NSPI file. Since then, our operating system will use the selected program to support all NSPI files. | 2019-04-26T14:25:47 | https://www.icdatamaster.com/extension/nspi |

Hi there! I am trying to find a new way to revamp my recruitment at Southeast Missouri State. I really want to get every potential new member to meet each chapter without stepping out of the 365 day recruitment process. Any thoughts?
I assume you are an IFC officer or Greek Advisor by the way your question was asked. I’ll be honest with you, I think trying to get each potential new member to meet each chapter is a very bad idea.
Fraternities are life-long membership organizations that are based on friendships. That isn’t a decision that should be made without a thorough understanding of the fraternity you are joining.
It is impossible to know a chapter well enough if you are spending all your time getting introduced to the 10, 20 or even 30 fraternities on campus.
My suggestion for potential new members is to do their homework and find 3 or 4 fraternities where they think they’ll fit in. Rush those guys and be sure you know enough about them to make an informed decision. My suggestion for brothers is to recruit smarter. Some good resources are 5 Ways Your Fraternity Can Kill It During Recruitment and Fraternity Recruitment Made Easy (a chapter in my book The Fraternity Leader).
If someone was initiated into an NIC fraternity (let’s say Delta Upsilon) and was then kicked out during a Chapter review/reorganization can he join a non-NIC fraternity?
As long as you were never initiated into NIC fraternity, you are welcome to join another. If you were initiated, you would have to get a release from your current fraternity to join another one. Every fraternity has a different process for that.
However, you pose an interesting question about joining a non-NIC fraternity. The NIC is the one who put that policy in place that all member fraternities agree to abide by. I guess if the fraternity in not a member of the NIC – then there are no rules to abide by. That being said, I would be very cautious about joining a non-NIC fraternity.
I recently transferred schools and was a part of a frat at my old school. The new school I am at has the same frat and I have been over to the house and tried to become a part of it. I can tell that I will not fully be a brother there. The have told me several times that they will vote on me weather I can join or not but after one semester they still haven’t voted. The guys are completely different from my brothers at my old frat and I don’t really like them. Can I join a new frat or am I with my original one.
Once you are initiated into your fraternity, you are a brother – period. The chapter at your new school does not get a vote on whether or not to accept you. You are already a brother.
I will assume you have made every attempt to assimilate into the new chapter. While they should welcome you into the chapter, you should do everything possible to meet them half-way.
That being said, those guys sound like jerks. I wouldn’t want to be part of their chapter regardless. It says a hell of a lot about a group of guys who don’t welcome their fraternity brother with open arms. My bet is that this is a chapter with a lot of issues that you don’t want to be a part of.
I would send an email to your fraternity’s executive director and explain the issue. Realize though if you are doing that you are essentially burning a bridge with the chapter. If you see no way that you will be a part of that chapter, I would request my release from the national headquarters.
I’m trying to open a bank account for my fraternity. I was wondering what is the process of opening a bank account for a non-national fraternity. What type of bank account do I open?
Your association with a national fraternity does not make a difference to the bank. My suggestion is to visit (or email) a few banks and explain your situation. Let them tell you what you need.
I would make sure the checking account you set up has low or no fees. Also, you want all checks to require two signatures. Free online banking would be nice as well. To learn more about my thoughts on fraternity finance, check out Fraternity Treasurer Responsibilities.
I disaffiliated from my fraternity last semester but I am thinking I made the wrong choice. Could I re-join that same fraternity?
How many times have you seen your buddies break up with a girl because he couldn’t stand her, only to go crawling back a few weeks later? The time apart made him forget why he broke up with her in the first place. However, when they were back together and the brief honeymoon period wore off, they were back at each-others throats only to break up again for the same reason they broke up the first time….
The point? Be sure you that you aren’t crawling back to an old girlfriend because you are lost or lonely. If she wasn’t right before, she won’t be right in the future. The same flaws will come up again if you are accepted back in the fraternity. Are you prepared to deal with them this second time around?
Case Study: What Fraternity Would I Join at the University of Idaho?
Pat and Dennis are spot-on about attempting to have everyone see every house. I believe that approach would do more harm than good. Most guys don’t want to put up with that kind of “visit every house” stuff anyway. Too bureaucratic and restrictive. Many Panhellenic councils require all girls going through sorority rush to visit every house. My daughter started rush at her Big 10 university, but dropped it because she didn’t want to visit all the houses; she only wanted to visit certain ones. Result: one potential Greek lost because of a dumb “fairness” rule that really isn’t “fair” to anyone. She thought it was a tedious bunch of BS to visit every house.
If you leave it up to each fraternity chapter to devise their own methods to recruit new members, the good houses will do just fine and the poor ones will improve, struggle, or eventually go away.
I hate when schools or councils talk about “leveling the playing field.” That is a euphemism for equalizing outcomes between haves and have-nots, meaning communism. That is a failed political theory that has no place in management of any social system. America is the most free place on earth. A big part of that freedom is encouraging a free market economy with the minimal regulation necessary to keep things from getting out of control. We don’t force people to test drive every brand of car before they decide which one to buy. Why would we force them to spend time with every fraternity, while getting less time with their top choices?
Rather than force interaction to check a box, let me recommend some alternatives. A mandatory job-fair style networking event at the beginning of the semester gives them the opportunity to see everyone without being forced where they don’t want to be. A well produced guide going beyond generic info and sent out over summer would be good. That can be an online product. I’ve seen a couple stories on “Greek Recruits” out of Maryland (http://scottblock.com/work/greek-recruits). I don’t know much about them, but the concept is something like bringing the old-school guide into the 21st century. Focus on creating wider networking opportunities and broad marketing. That works better than forcing things on a potential customer. Work with the school to add Greek intro stuff to orientations and campus visits by HS seniors. If you grow the recruiting pool and broaden networking choices, then more chapters will be successful anyway.
What was your status after being cut? Did they pull your pin, were you made early alumni, suspended? Are you on paper still an initiate of that fraternity or not? If not, you can seek your release. Depending why they kicked you out they may or may not grant that release. When you say non-NIC fraternity, what do you mean? If a local or another council, they may or may not have a similar rule. If you mean Kappa Sig or Phi Delt who left NIC on a national level, they maintain the same rule regardless of being in NIC.
It’s a straight non-profit business bank account. Generally it will require an EIN, articles of incorporation, & bylaws. You’ll need socials and signatures of the authorized signers. Have more than two people authorized to sign. Having an alumni advisor on the account is good too. Build oversight into the system so people can’t do dumb stuff in the future. | 2019-04-23T22:45:24 | http://thefraternityadvisor.com/fraternity-questions-365-recruitment-changing-fraternities-and-fraternity-bank-accounts/ |

It has rained during the night and it is bitter cold (47 Fahrenheit / 8 Celsius) and still cloudy.
After making sure that we will have a room again tonight, we head off to the Park again. From West Yellowstone to Madison and then we turn south towards Old Faithful and eventually Lake Yellowstone.
We see lots of geysers in all sizes and shapes some of them are pools of boiling water other are blubbering wholes that erupt from time to time. The pools are very deep (at least 8 meters) and filled with very clear boiling water, the reflections vary from green to turquoise to deep blue with boarders varying in color from white, through orange to black. It’s hard to find words to describe the beauty of these geysers especially if the sun is shining! Those who erupt have completely different schedules, some of them are absolutely unpredictable, some erupt every few seconds or minutes, other every few hours or days and one of them they mentioned erupts between every 4 days to 50 years.
The west area of the park all the way south to Old Faithful, which is the biggest geyser in the park, is densely packed with geysers where as on the east side there are hardly any. There are more forests and rivers. Yellowstone river e.g., which right now carries a lot of water has built Grand Canyon of Yellowstone over time and runs through several falls to lower elevations. At various places we stopped at overlooks to see the impressive forces of water.
We do the whole “inner circle” of Yellowstone and late afternoon return to West Yellowstone again. An amazing day! | 2019-04-22T04:32:04 | http://mmjaeger.com/yellowstone-day-2/ |

Brandon Dwayne Stovall aka B.D.Kold is a songwriter and rapper who grew up just outside of Baton Rouge. He delivers incredibly honest and real lyrics that lay his inner demons on the table for all to see. B.D.Kold just released his 5 track recording, “Walking In Faith The E.P.”, that lays down the groundwork for his future in the industry. I want to start off by saying that this EP is absolutely affecting. B.D.Kold has such a distinct and incredibly honest style of rapping that brilliantly shines through on this recording His songs are intense; they aren’t just something you will sit down and listen to, they will seriously make you think about your life. B.D.Kold doesn’t waste any time in this concise recording – every word has a purpose and provides an incredible insight into the life of someone who has gone through hardships. This insight, the rapper passes to us, in hopes that we too can find our true purpose and help out one another.
B.D.Kold grew up in a small working class community and with both parents working, he found his way as a trouble maker at an early age. At 13 he decided to run away from home stealing a car and making it to Alabama where he totaled the vehicle running from state police.
Lucky to be alive, he begin to search for his purpose in life, and over the ensuing years rapping became his passion and what he decided he wanted his career path to be. But again, in pursuing rap on the local scene he came into contact with the ways of street life which induced, a then naïve youngster like himself, to want to earn respect and money via the drug trade just like everybody else seemed to be doing.
After years of battling multiple addictions and countless run ins with the law, in 2014 he entered into a disciple program a few towns distant from where he grew up. He began to learn the word and biblical precepts God began to put it in his heart, to reach the people that were like he once was. This elevated B.D.Kold’s attitude to a positive and uplifting one, and fired up the approach to his music.
Now that he has focused his perspective, he needs to gain people’s attention to bring them the message. That is the goal of “Walking In Faith The E.P.”. In today’s gritty rap industry, it is difficult to find artists who are profound, honest, and interesting. B.D.Kold is as such throughout this record.
Every track on this recording sounds personal to the artist, and that makes every song seem like something special. Each cut has its own meaning in the bigger story. The EP sounds amazing too, and the combination of meaning and sound is absolutely terrific. Right from when the first track, “Make It Rain” opens, it’s hard not to connect with B.D.Kold as a person when listening to his music.
“No Matter What” gives you raw and honest insight into the artist’s mind, his life, his personal struggles, and his gratitude for God’s grace, in picking him up and changing his heart. Just as I expected, the production quality of this EP is superb and fits both the mood and B.D.Kold’s style perfectly.
The mood, layering and attention to detail is always exceptional throughout the EP. The beauty of “Trust In You” is staggering. B.D.Kold finds comfort, healing and hope in this song which he shares with others. The cool downtempo beat, from the drums to the keyboards, is just plain awesome.
B.D.Kold runs in his own lane and does it well. His intense rap on “Army Of The Lord” will resonate with CHH fans very well because of how different his rapping style is from the rest of CHH. His realness and intensity he brings in this song is captivating.
Often we become too comfortable in our culture, and we need reminders to look into the mirror and see the truth. “Walking In Faith The E.P.” is a recording that makes you do exactly that. Every song makes you think. The lyrics and meaning are the focus, but B.D.Kold doesn’t sacrifice sound in the process.

In trading on Friday, shares of Cavium crossed above their 200 day moving average of $36.00, changing hands as high as $36.05 per share. Cavium Inc shares are currently trading up about 1.3% on the day.
The most recent short interest data has been released by the NASDAQ for the 11/29/2013 settlement date, which shows a 431,274 share increase in total short interest for Cavium Inc , to 4,264,530, an increase of 11.25% since 11/15/2013. Total short interest is just one way to look at short data; another metric that we here at Dividend Channel find particularly useful is the "days to cover" metric because it considers both the total shares short and the average daily volume of shares traded.
Investors in Cavium Inc saw new options become available this week, for the June 2014 expiration. One of the key data points that goes into the price an option buyer is willing to pay, is the time value, so with 241 days until expiration the newly available contracts represent a potential opportunity for sellers of puts or calls to achieve a higher premium than would be available for the contracts with a closer expiration.
The most recent short interest data has been released by the NASDAQ for the 08/30/2013 settlement date, which shows a 745,144 share increase in total short interest for Cavium Inc , to 4,781,084, an increase of 18.46% since 08/15/2013. Total short interest is just one way to look at short data; another metric that we here at Dividend Channel find particularly useful is the "days to cover" metric because it considers both the total shares short and the average daily volume of shares traded.

Are you looking for an honest Office Autopilot review of the software? Have you been doing your due diligence on other reviews because you want to see what Office Autopilot can do for your business? Meanwhile, you have to deal with the burden of technology that most of us suffer from at one point in the journey. Listen, you’re looking for a solid Office Autopilot review because you want to know how the software can automate your business and if it’s feasible for you, right?
In this article I dissect Office Autopilot and do what all the other reviews do not: I am going to give you my honest opinion of Office Autopilot, and justify why after reading this review you will be sure Office Autopilot is the best automation software on the Internet.
I was spending money where I didn’t have to on my business each month. The quickest way to make more money is to save money.
I had all these different services as part of our marketing and each required maintenance and constant updates.
The fact was that I could make a few simple changes and make a lot more money, while working less than ever. Here’s what I did to make that happen: First, I exported my lists and imported them all into Office Autopilot. By doing that I was able to cut out 4 monthly charges I received that I had outgrown. The second thing I did was to cut out all the extra services that I didn’t need anymore because Office Autopilot had the functionality to fulfill those purposed. Another 3 service charges cut out each month. Then lastly, I made a detailed report of how to implement certain systems using Office Autopilot and sent them out to virtual assistants so I didn’t have to do any of it.
Now I was able to spend less time working in my business on a bunch of manual tasks, and spend my time on profit-producing activities that are more devoted to strategy and taking care of my members. I was working less than ever and because I was making more money, spending less money, and had more free time I was happy.
I can scale my business so much easier with Office Autopilot which is why I highly endorse getting a free demo. You have nothing to lose because if it doesn’t make your life 1000 times easier like it did mine, you have 90 days to get a full refund so you have no reason not to take Office Autopilot for a risk-free test drive.
I personally guarantee your satisfaction with the software, and if you need anything, or have any questions let me know in the comments below! | 2019-04-21T04:38:41 | http://officeautopilot-ontraport.com/office-autopilot-reviews/ |
