"Working together to rebuild lives affected by mental illness"
The clubhouse model is based on the belief that members are partners in their own recovery, rather than merely the passive recipients of treatment, and that meaningful work and relationships are integral parts of their recovery. Members work side by side with staff to organize and administer, and success is dependent upon the degree to which members assume responsibility for themselves. All Clubhouses adhere to the set of International Clubhouse Standards. | 2019-04-20T14:58:23 | https://www.namiracinecounty.org/mental-health-social-day-programs.html |
An open letter has been prepared and released by the deans and directors of the seven research libraries at public doctoral institutions in Virginia. It is part of an ongoing conversation with our campus communities about responsible stewardship of our investments in research.
On February 28, 2019, the University of California System announced the end of its relationship with publishing giant Elsevier, when a deal between the two could not be met despite months of negotiation. The key goal for UC was to secure open access to the research that UC faculty publish with Elsevier while containing the inflation and overall cost associated with the for-profit publisher. The scholarship produced by UC researchers constitutes 10% of all U.S. publishing, and their desideratum is to see that research openly available online at no cost to the reader.
William & Mary has a big deal journal package with Elsevier and with a few other major journal publishers such as Springer Nature, Wiley, Oxford, and SAGE. In December, W&M Libraries published the prices of our most expensive packages as part of our commitment to open dialogue with faculty and students about the high cost of information and priorities for faculty and student research. The page talks about the tension between our desire to provide access to exceptional collections and the growing realization that our current publishing system is so problematic that it’s irrational, if not impossible, to continue to pour university dollars into for-profit journal publishing at the degree we are now.
For California, Elsevier offered a renewal contract that layered new OA publication fees on top of higher costs for subscriptions, and excluded OA publishing in some of their highest profile journals including Cell and The Lancet. In the end, the two sides could not reach an agreement and no new contract was signed by UC for subscription access to Elsevier’s lineup of over 2,500 peer reviewed journals.
UC’s cancellation is one of the largest examples of a university system splitting from Elsevier in the U.S., though countries and consortia across Europe have made similar moves in the past few years. In fact, a group of national research funding organizations with the support of the European Research Council announced the launch of Plan S in the fall; this coalition of major funding agencies would insist that funded research be published in open access journals or on compliant open access platforms by 2020.
This system, however, is gradually giving way to the open access model, in which journals are supported financially by alternative means so that final, peer-reviewed work can be read by anyone, without a subscription. Even when publishing in traditional journals, researchers in most cases can request to retain their copyrights so their work can be archived in an institutional repository like W&M ScholarWorks or a subject-based repository.
Both self-archiving in this way and choosing to publish in OA journals are key to increasing access to research in the developing world, increasing readership, and disrupting the current inequalities inherent in the publishing world. Open access advocates say this is not only a more logical system for research funded by the public, but a much better way of disseminating scientific discovery. In a recent analysis of William & Mary faculty publications, journal articles that were available open access either in an OA repository such as W&M ScholarWorks or in an open access journal such as those published by PLoS, were cited 90% more than articles locked behind a publisher paywall.
The decision to put open access at the forefront of the UC System negotiation was bolstered by faculty support throughout the process as many faculty authors turned away from editing and publishing with Elsevier because of their high costs and high profit margins, history of litigation and legislative support against libraries and researchers, and aggressive acquisition and control of services and applications in all parts of the research life cycle such as SSRN, Mendeley, Berkeley Press’s Digital Commons, and Hivebench.
UC has been in the forefront of the open access trend. Its Academic Senate adopted an OA policy in 2013 whereby UC authors are required to deposit versions of their papers or links in the university’s eScholarship online repository, which currently holds more than 200,000 items available to the public for free.
What should William & Mary faculty and researchers do if they’re concerned about these issues?
To share your thoughts, ask questions, or get more information from the librarians, archivists, and staff of W&M Libraries, talk with one of our faculty liaisons. If you’re interested in going open, but are not sure where to start, learn more about open scholarship at William & Mary on our website or by emailing us. | 2019-04-19T09:45:23 | https://libraries.wm.edu/blog/post/UC |

What do you mean by “New EIN”?
Were you issued your Employer Identification Number just under 2 weeks ago? If the answer is yes, then your EIN is what we like to call “new.” As the IRS states in the picture you can not file your 2290 electronically until the 2 weeks pass. The reason is that it takes two weeks for the your Employer Identification Number to become part of the IRS e-file records.
But I was issued my EIN by the IRS why can’t I use it?
You have a good point. You have your Tax I.D. ready to go, so why can’t you just file your return? Even though you are issued an Employer Identification Number right away as part of the application you cannot electronically file a Form 2290 until those two weeks are up and the system has been updated. The IRS will reject your return if you file too quickly because the e-file computers don’t know the number yet. I know seems a bit silly, but we don’t make the rules the IRS does.
My registration is due and I need to file the 2290 Form, what can I do?
As we inform our customers over the phone daily, if you have a new EIN you have two options: either you wait for the two weeks to pass so you can electronically file or you take to your Form 2290 and file at your local IRS office.
2290Tax gets you your Stamped Schedule 1 within minutes, but a new employer identification number will prolong that process. As in by two weeks.

It lasted four generations, over a centuryת in the hands of the family, Adolphe Stoclet’s spectacular collection of African and Oceanic Art, which will be sold at Christie’s next week. The name of this art patron is well known to anyone interested in design and architecture for the iconic, almost mythical house, Palais Stoclet now a UNESCO world heritage site, which he commissioned from Josef Hoffmann and which was completed in Brussels in 1911. I don’t know anyone who has visited the house, as it has been closed to the public for over a century, and with the exception of photographs which were taken many years ago, this house has remained a mystery. In fact, everything about it and the life lived in this house have been a mystery, and according to Bruno Claessens, Head of African and Oceanic Art at Christie’s in Paris, while the collection has been known to be existed, 'nobody knew what exactly was in it.' Anyone who drives along Avenue de Tervueren, Brussels' prestigious avenue, can see the house, tucked away behind a tall iron gate, preventing from the public to get a close look at this legendary structure. Stoclet, who had inherited his father’s fortune in 1904, becoming one of the richest people in Belgium, had a deep love and interest in the arts, and when living in Vienna, he was introduced to the Wiener Werkstätte, the workshop of architects, artists and designers who created one of the most magical houses of the 20th century, a Temple of the Arts. This collection, we learn now, was on display at the Palais Stoclet and includes pieces from Congo, a former colony of Belgium, and Songye, making it 'once in a lifetime opportunity' in the field of African and Oceanic Art. | 2019-04-20T14:36:44 | https://www.daniellaondesign.com/blog/adolphe-stoclets-african-and-oceanic-art |
Conditions: Warm and sunny, moderate tail current but a strong headwind. The wind was strongest during the G1 and B1 races.

Divi is a popular theme for beauty and fashion websites. There are lots of beauty and fashion websites made with Divi to help spark your imagination and several child themes to get your site started quickly. There are also lots of layouts available if you don’t want to build from the ground up or use a child theme. The advantage of layouts is you can use them with any theme and you can use as much or as little of the layout design as you want.
If you’re looking for Divi layouts to build a website for beauty business, such as a beauty salons or blogs, you’re in luck. There are several gorgeous premium layouts to get you started. In this article we’ll take a look at 7 premium Divi layouts for beauty. The layouts are in no particular order.
Hang around until the end for a bonus: a free fashion layout from Carpetcleaninghaddontownship.
Beauty Single Page Layout for Divi was designed with blogging in mind. The header displays a full-screen slider. Post categories are displayed within a multi-column layout (showing three categories per row and two alternating rows) with images, overlays, and buttons. An About Me section shows an image with an overlapping text module. The blog section displays the latest three posts and uses shadow effects for the blog cards. Also included is a section with a styled email optin and a section that includes a styled form over a background image.
Amalia O. For Divi is a one-page layout with stylists in mind, but can work for any type of business. It has large alternating sections with images and text and border effects for the modules. A slider displays text within an overlay. The shop section highlights products by displaying SHOP within a background in parallax to help draw attention to the shop module. A project section displays projects with border effects. A small form is placed within the footer over an image. The layout uses soft colors that are perfectly suited to the beauty genre.
Curls in Heaven is a one-page layout designed for hair dressers and beauty salons. It displays the logo over a full-screen background with appointment CTA (call to action). The menu shows a styled pattern background that continues throughout the page. Work is shown through an image montage with border shadow effects. Hours are shown within an overlay. The team is shown with images and overlapping text. Pricing is displayed in overlays and use hover effects. The form also uses shadow effects for the border. This layout makes great use of color.
Salon is a one-page layout designed for beauty salons. It includes a hero section with overlapping text module to display a tagline. The next section displays two image modules with an overlapping text module and CTA. A background image is shown in parallax as you scroll to the next section. Services are displayed as images with links. Also included are styled person modules, an image gallery, and a styled section that includes a background, styled form, and social follow buttons.
Hair Salon is a one-page layout with a second menu that displays the logo, phone number and appointment CTA button. The full-screen header shows a tagline and CTA with a background image in parallax that serves as the background for four sections with different overlays for each. Services are shown within styled toggles. A multi-column section displays services with images and text modules for prices. It includes several full-width CTA’s. The map doesn’t scroll on hover and shows a message in an overlay of how to scroll the map. This layout makes elegant use of color, fonts, and images.
OPL Salon was designed for salons and spas. It comes with five pages including a home (which can be used as a one-page website if you want), services, testimonials, appointments, and blog. The team members are highlighted with photos with text and a button in an overlay. Services are shown within an alternating grid of images and text using true parallax. The pages use full-width or full-screen images with page titles in overlays. The appointments page uses a map rather than an image. The layout makes great use of large fonts for headings and matching colors throughout.
Spa Single Page Layout for Divi was designed for beauty spas with a specific focus on bridal beauty. The layout places a heading with two CTA’s above the image. The next section displays two columns with an image and text with CTA. Packages are shown within blurbs over a parallax background. Services are shown as images, descriptions, and include a button.

Most are one-page layouts but include lots of styled sections. They have clean designs so your visitors will focus on your products or services. These are excellent layouts to get a quick start on your next Divi design.
Beauty websites or boring, redundant design?
I agree if you interchanged the pictures with any other niche it would still be boring. I remember when Divi was first released and Elegant themes did those ones with camping, space and more – those were original designs but these days they are all so similar. What is worse is that I build real websites for clients and those silly one-page child themes are a pain to fix and turn into a proper SEO silo structured website.I am pretty sure that all those child theme designers are not that creative or we would see some brilliant designs showing up all over the place.
Agreed. There are a handful of child themes out there worth anything.
I also second the other comment about when Divi first came out there were some really cool designs provided by Elegant. I think the free Elegant child themes that are coming out are cool, and very useful.
Would love to see some cutting edge stuff. If just for inspiration and to show what’s possible.
What is the real link for #6??
The link has changed. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll see if I can find it.
Any progress on finding the real link for #6? I have a client that is interested in that theme. Thanks!
Will there be a featured blog post like this focused on layouts for health, wellness & lifestyle coaches?
Good idea Simone. I’ll look into it and see how many I can find.
@Randy, thanks! I appreciate your consideration of my request.
Any chance for an author-themed layout pack?
Is this theme responsive by google amp ? | 2019-04-23T02:16:31 | http://carpetcleaninghaddontownship.info/blog/divi-resources/premium-divi-layouts-for-beauty-websites |
Mix the flour, Clabber Girl Baking Powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs with some pea-size pieces of butter. Gradually stir in enough of the water for the dough to clump together. Gather up the dough and form into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until chilled but not hard, 1-2 hours. | 2019-04-26T13:37:32 | https://www.clabbergirl.com/recipe-details/?recipe=NDI1 |

In 69:11 it is to them,Allah is speaking from a different perspective here,in this verse he I see speaking to Nuh and his people and saying "You" as in Nuh,etc,etc and only Egypt,no there is no mention of Egypt it was most probably in Iraq-Syria where the flood happened.
And on 69:12 it tells us to get a lesson out of Noah PBUH and reflect on his life.
36:41,Yes i do think this is about ships only. If it was Nuh A.S there would have been Hadith narrations behind it saying so,but none of that is to be found,so I think that this verse is just telling us how our ancestors immigrated.
[007:059] We sent Noah to his people. He said: "O my people! worship God! ye have no other god but Him. I fear for you the punishment of a dreadful day!
[003:137] Many were the Ways of Life that have passed away before you: travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth. | 2019-04-22T12:37:10 | http://www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php/topic,2575.msg12187.html |

Makeup is not done with logics of mathematics, isn't it?? But what if I say, there is logic behind why/why not to use a product. In other words, you can say there is a logical manner of following up a makeup routine. If you're wondering why am I being so logical today is to convince you to prep your skin in a way that the makeup you wear adds a glow to your looks.
Basically I'm talking about a beauty lesson that's pretty much underrated and it's regarding the usage of a Face Primer.
Primers are available in cream, gel and powder formats (powder being the least commonly seen). The one I'm using at present is from Oriflame called as The One Illuskin Primer. Isn't the name fascinating in itself?? You visualize yourself wearing a illuminated skin after you apply the primer. But did it really work the way expected??
The Illuskin primer comes in tube packaging which is lightweight and handy. Absolutely easy to push in a corner of your makeup kit or handbag. The white and purple themed tube looks classy.
The tiny hole on the top of the tube nozzle dispenses only little amount of product and avoid any wastage that may happen due to excessive size. The tube is soft to squeeze.
I won't call this primer a gel or cream, but it's similar to a lotion of medium consistency. The white colored primer is light on skin and blends like a dream. I had read mixed reviews about this primer and was not sure whether it will suit my dry skin or not. But I'm glad to share that the primer has nice moisturization effect to it that may even allow normal skin beauties to skip a layer of usual moisturizer at time (though I've to hydrate my skin first).
The primer gives a velvety feel to skin without any stickiness, but is not completely matte. The day you start applying a primer, you'll notice the longevity of your makeup is increased. A thin layer of face primer is enough to smooth fine lines, wrinkles and pores so the foundation/makeup setting powder/compact that you wear on its top doesn't fade away sooner. The final face makeup done over primer stays put as long as the whole day and the skin looks fresh and glowing illuminated.
Create the perfect canvas for makeup with this tone-enhancing face primer. Evens out skin tone, extends the wear of your foundation and minimizes the appearance of pores. With HaloLight Technology for a subtle healthy glow.
Overall, The One Illuskin Primer is not a drying formula rather is a good choice for mild moisturization and to even out the base of facial skin. It has no specific tint to it, so goes well for everyday usage. It has faint smell which is too light to bother sensitive noses. A little goes a long way for this primer, so make that bottle last till the time you like to glow within your skin! | 2019-04-24T15:57:21 | https://www.maliveandkicking.com/2017/03/oriflame-one-illuskin-primer-review.html |

The landfill property extends over 6,000 acres. It is a Class I landfill with a natural clay liner. Phase I of the landfill is capped and is 131 feet high. Phase II is the active landfill and is currently 73 feet high. Phase III will tie Phases I & II together and be 270 feet high. Gas Recovery and Leachate Removal Systems are installed on the site to ensure environmental compliance.
The landfill property consists of an administrative office, truck maintenance facility, white goods recycling area, tire collection area, yard waste processing facility, as well as recycling.
White goods are appliances. They are banned from the landfill disposal in the state of Florida, yet are accepted for recycling. At the white goods recycling area, refrigerants are recovered from appliances containing freon, then the white goods are recycled by a scrap metal dealer.
Whole tires are also banned from the landfills. They are shredded and chipped and used in the manufacture of playground surfacing and as a mulch alternative, or also as an alternative fuel source.
Yard waste is processed on the landfill property. It is ground in a tub grinder to form mulch and used as an alternative fuel source. | 2019-04-24T21:58:24 | http://www.seminolecountyfl.gov/departments-services/environmental-services/solid-waste-management/seminole-county-landfill.stml |
How Navajo artist Ben Yazzie so precisely translated 14k gold sheet, wire, and precious stones into such an exacting replica of the esteemed Horned Toad is a task far beyond the ability of most metalsmiths. Horned Toads are loved to the point of reverence in the culture of the Navajo and are believed to be the most adoring and benevolent creatures in return. Ben’s amazingly lifelike broach honors both the inner and outer forms of Grandfather Horned Toad. The addition of diamonds and garnets adds greater beauty and dimension. It captured "Best of Class" honors at last year’s Navajo Shiprock Fair. | 2019-04-24T04:38:08 | https://www.twinrocks.com/products/10137-14k-gold-diamonds-garnet-pin-ben-yazzie.html |

Always look at the date when you read a hardware article. Some of the content in this article is most likely out of date, as it was written on July 30, 2014. For newer information, see our more recent articles.
Hard drives (especially SSDs) are becoming faster and faster but have recently hit a performance wall due to the limitations of the current SATA specification. SATA III is rated for 6Gb/s, but in real-world scenarios is actually limited to a theoretical maximum throughput of only about 550-600MB/s. This is very fast but even current storage technology can theoretically go much faster than this.
M.2 is a new form of connectivity for SSD drives that allows drives to connect directly to the PCI-E bus rather than going through a SATA controller. By bypassing the SATA controller a M.2 drive can have a theoretical maximum throughput as high as 2GB/s. To put this into perspective, that is over three times faster than the 600MB/s SATA is limited to!
One thing to be aware of is that not all M.2 drives are created equally. M.2 includes backward compatibility with SATA, so there are some M.2 drives on the market that still use SATA instead of PCI-E and are thus still limited to 550-600MB/s. Even on the PCI-E drives, depending on the version they can use either 2 or 4 PCI-E lanes (x2 or x4) which can dramatically impact performance. One neat thing with these PCI-E M.2 drives is that you don't actually need a motherboard that has an integrated M.2 slot. In fact, you can use a very simple adapter to plug a M.2 card into almost any PCI-E slot on your motherboard. This makes it very easy to add a high-speed M.2 drive to almost any system.
First, since most motherboards with M.2 slots currently only run at PCI-E x2, we want to know how much of a performance hit there is by running a M.2 drive at PCI-E x2 versus PCI-E x4.
Second, there have been reports online that M.2 drives run much hotter than standard SATA drives. What we want to find out is exactly how hot they run so we will know if we need to address any cooling concerns.
Finally, we want to know which of our current motherboards support booting to M.2 drives. M.2 should work as a secondary drive on almost any motherboard, but many users online have reported problems booting to M.2 drives.
For our qualification we will be using two different M.2 drives. The first is a 256GB Plextor PX-G256M6e which uses a Marvell PCIe 9183 controller that can utilize PCI-E x2. This drive is advertised to be able to reach sequential read speeds of 770MB/s and sequential write speeds of 625MB/s. The second drive is a 512GB Samsung XP941 which uses a proprietary Samsung controller that can utilize PCI-E x4. Because of the extra PCI-E lanes, this drive is advertised to be able to reach sequential read speeds of 1170MB/s and sequential write speeds of 930MB/s. This is over twice as fast as any SATA-based SSD currently available!
For our performance and thermal testing, the M.2 drives were configured as secondary storage devices so that the OS would not impact our benchmarks. For the motherboard qualification section, we used the drives as the primary drive in order to determine if the motherboard was able to boot to the drive.
Since the Asus Z97-A's onboard M.2 slot only supports PCI-E x2 and most of the other motherboards simply don't have a M.2 slot, much of our testing was done using a M.2 to PCI-E x4 adapter. We chose to use an adapter made by "Bplus Technologies" since it includes a heatsink to help cool the drive - and as you will see later in this article, having a heatsink for M.2 drives is a very good idea.
M.2 drives can operate in either SATA, PCI-E x2, or PCI-E x4 mode depending on what both the drive and M.2 slot support. Currently, most M.2 slots that are found on motherboards are only able to support PCI-E x2 which should be a limiting factor for faster M.2 drives. The big question is how much of a performance loss you will see by using an onboard PCI-E x2 slot versus PCI-E x4.
To determine the performance difference, we configured the M.2 drives as secondary storage drives and ran benchmarks using CrystalDiskMark with the default settings (5 passes with 1000MB files). We first installed the drives into the Asus Z97-A's onboard M.2 slot running at PCI-E x2, then installed the drives into a M.2 to PCI-E x4 adapter to benchmark them at PCI-E x4 speeds.
In terms of transfer speeds, at PCI-E x2 the Samsung drive is faster than the Plextor drive (especially in terms of write performance), but it is definitely being bottlenecked. When we moved the drives to PCI-E x4, the Samsung drive saw about a 50% sequential read performance increase and about a 25% sequential write performance increase. The Plextor drive, on the other hand, saw no benefit by using PCI-E x4 over PCI-E x2. This is to be expected since the drive itself is only designed to use two PCI-E lanes, but it is nice to see the benchmarks match our expectations.
To summarize, the Plextor PX-G256M6e (which is a PCI-E x2 drive) doesn't see much performance benefit by installing it in a PCI-E x4 slot, and in some cases it actually ended up performing a bit worse. However, the Samsung XP941 (which is a PCI-E x4 drive), definitely needs all four PCI-E lanes in order for it to run at peak performance.
We have seen some reports online of M.2 drives (specifically the Samsung XP941) running very hot, so we wanted to see for ourselves how hot both the Plextor and Samsung drives run. Unfortunately, these drives do not have any thermal sensors integrated that we could find so we were limited to using a thermal camera to find the hottest point on the top of the drive. This is not 100% accurate since there may be hot spots on the back of the drive but it is about as accurate as we can get with current M.2 drives.
Since idle temperatures are not a great indication of how cool a device runs, we wanted to load the drives using a real-world scenario. To do this, we placed roughly 103GB worth of ISO files on the drive and made a 1:1 copy of those ISO files while recording a video of the drive using a thermal camera.
As you can see, both of these drives run very, very hot. To be clear, we weren't doing anything crazy (just making a copy of a bunch of ISO files) yet both drives quickly got up to temperatures that we are not comfortable with. One thing we want to point out is that the actual storage chips are not what is getting really hot, but rather all the other chips on the drive like the controller chip. On the Samsung XP941 the controller is on the top of the drive so the thermal camera can directly see that it got to 113 °C. However, on the Plextor drive the controller chip is on the back of the drive where the thermal camera cannot see it. It is entirely possible that the Plextor drive is actually running much hotter than the 94 °C we recorded since the controller is not directly visible to the thermal camera.
There are rumors of LSI and Marvell coming out with new, more efficient controllers in the near future so hopefully that will allow M.2 drives to run at a more reasonable temperature. Until M.2 drives are able to run cooler, however, we recommend using M.2 slots that are integrated onto a motherboard only if you are able to check the drive temperature to make sure it isn't overheating. Otherwise, we recommend using a M.2 to PCI-E adapter that includes a heatsink like the one we used in our testing. In fact, when using the heatsink the temperature on the Samsung XP941 dropped down from 113 °C to a maximum of about 53 °C which is a much, much safer temperature.
Since M.2 is a completely new storage specification, we wanted to do fairly extensive testing to determine which motherboards support M.2 drives. One thing we quickly found was that while every motherboard we tested can see both the Samsung and Plextor drives just fine as secondary storage devices, there we some problems using them as primary boot drives.
Due to this, we decided to test the majority of the motherboards in our current product line to determine which boards support booting to M.2 drives. Our testing consisted of simply installing Windows 8.1 in both BIOS and UEFI mode and seeing if the board would boot to the drive. There are some reports online that you can make a M.2 drive bootable by making it a single disk RAID then installing in UEFI mode, but what we are primarily interested in is which motherboards support booting to M.2 drives without having to go through a ton of extra hoops.
With the exception of the Supermicro H8QGi-F (which doesn't support UEFI), we were able to install and boot to the Plextor PX-G256M6e in either BIOS or UEFI mode on every motherboard we tested. Unfortunately, the Samsung XP941 isn't quite as widely compatible. In fact, the only motherboards we could get to boot to it were ones with either a Z97 or H97 chipset. Interestingly, these are also currently the only chipsets that include native M.2 support.
Even though we only tested a limited number of motherboards, our testing indicates that it is very likely the Plextor drive will work as a boot drive on nearly any modern motherboard while the Samsung drive will only work on newer chipsets that include native M.2 support. We did only test Asus and Supermicro boards, however, so if you have a different motherboard brand we recommend contacting the manufacturer and asking them which M.2 cards your motherboard will support booting to before purchasing a M.2 drive.
M.2 is interesting because it has some very distinct pros and cons, but the pros are muddied by the fact that not all M.2 drives are even close to each other in terms of performance. The biggest advantage to M.2 by far is the performance possible by using the PCI-E bus rather than a SATA controller. The Samsung XP941 very clearly shows this with its amazing transfer speeds that are over twice as fast as any SATA-based drive currently available. However, since M.2 can use either SATA, PCI-E x2 or PCI-E x4 there is a wide range of performance possible from a M.2 drive. The ones that use SATA likely won't be any faster than current SATA SSDs and like we saw from the Plextor PX-G256M6e, PCI-E x2 drives will likely only be about 30% faster than SATA SSDs. This is nothing to scoff at, but it means consumers will have to pay close attention to a drive's specifications when purchasing a M.2 drive.
Another advantage to M.2 is that you can use a very simple M.2 to PCI-E adapter to add one or more M.2 drives to your system. What we haven't touched on is the fact that an adapter card doesn't have to be limited to a single M.2 drive. While not available right now (that we can find at least) we completely expect someone to come out with a card that adapts four M.2 drives to a single PCI-E x16 slot. This would give you a ton of versatility since you could install four individual M.2 drives into a single motherboard slot or you could RAID the four drives together in a RAID0. Theoretically, this could allow for transfer speeds of up to 8GB/s which would almost match the performance of DDR3-1066 system RAM!
While the performance implications of M.2 are amazing, they certainly come at a cost. First, current M.2 drives run very hot. 113 °C on the Samsung drive and 94 °C on the Plextor when doing a few minutes worth of file copies is simply not acceptable. Luckily, there are M.2 to PCI-E adapters available that include heatsinks to help cool the M.2 drive. If you are using a M.2 slot on a motherboard, however, we recommend you keep a close eye on it to make sure it doesn't get too hot.
Finally, motherboard compatibility is not universally very good right now. The Plextor drive worked as both a storage and boot drive in every motherboard we tested, but the Samsung had problems booting on the majority of the boards we tried it on. Unless you have a Z97 or H97 motherboard, don't expect to use a Samsung XP941 as anything other than a storage drive.
Overall, M.2 is a very exciting technology. Potential performance is phenomenal and the current problems can all be worked around through the use of M.2 to PCI-E adapters and limiting your choice of motherboards if you want to use a Samsung XP941 as a boot drive. However, what we are even more excited for is the M.2 controllers LSI and Marvell are rumored to be working on that are supposed to be much more efficient than the current M.2 controllers. If this is true, we expect to see even better performance, reduced temperatures, and much better motherboard compatibility in the near future.
I'm interested in getting a Z97 Gryphon with the XP941, but I see that the Gryphon has no m.2 slot. According to this article, you were able to get the SSD to boot in that motherboard. What steps did you take? Thanks.
All we had to do was install to the drive in UEFI mode and make sure we had the latest BIOS. Before the recent BIOS files Asus published, you had to do weird things like installing the drive as a single disk RAID. As far as we can find, this is no longer necessary.
If you are unfamiliar with UEFI, you first need to make sure UEFI is enabled in the BIOS by going to the "Boot -> CSM(compatibility support module)" (this page: https://www.pugetsystems.co... ) and making sure everything is set to either "Legacy and UEFI" or "UEFI only" (it should be in Legacy and UEFI by default). Then, make sure to boot to your install media using the boot device that includes "[UEFI]" at the start of the device name. When you boot to the media as a UEFI device, Windows will automatically install in UEFI mode.
Once the OS is installed, you will notice that there is a new bootable device in the BIOS called "Windows Boot Manager". This is what you actually want to boot to.
Does this mean that the my plextor PX-G256M6e SSD isappearing is caused by overheating? or can it be a defect and is RMA-able? does the drive throttle itself on high temperature?
Most likely it is simply defective, but if you have very little airflow in your chassis it is possible that it could be overheating. We actually just got a response from our Plextor rep about safe temperatures and they say that the controller (which is what is getting really hot) is rated for up to 125C. The memory itself should only get to like 80C, but from our testing never gets anywhere near that.
i actually have a asus maximus vii hero.... and was planning on using the m.2 slot, but after your review.. im thinking of trading the hero in for a formula and waiting for the asus express m.2 to x4 adapter card when it comes out.. which will give me full speeds aswell.
Yea, we used the adapter card to boot on Gryphon. Actually, we used it on everything, we just also tested the onboard slot on the Z97-A and H97I-PLUS. After doing all this testing, I'm pretty sure that what makes a M.2 bootable or not isn't the adapter card at all, its the controller integrated onto the M.2 drive itself. From the motherboard and operating systems's point of view, there is really no difference between an onboard M.2 PCI-E slot and the normal PCI-E slots. So whether you will be able to boot to a M.2 drive should depend almost entirely on the M.2 drive's controller.
Whether you keep the Hero board or switch to a Formula, either one should support booting to the XP941 in Windows 8.1 as long as you install in UEFI mode. We haven't tested either, but they both use the Z97 chipset. And since the Z/H97 chipsets are the only ones that worked I would say you have a pretty good chance of it working.
yeah looks like u made it a little more difficult to find one... lol they was all on amazon yesterday..... but no worries.. i just went straight to the source... Bplus M2P4A... just ordered one... i seen some generic one's on amazon.. but the build quality just didnt look as good .. especially the heatsink that was on the generic..
do u think there will be any problems with this on the formula in the 3rd slot with two 780ti's in sli above the adapter?
It should work fine in the third x16 slot. The only downside to using that slot is that it shares bandwidth with the Sata Express connector. So you won't be able to add a SATA Express drive in the future. Personally, I don't see SATA Express taking off so I wouldn't be too worried about that.
cool... thanks again for taking the time to respond.. and once again great review..
Technically, why Samsung disk not boot on "not z97 or H97" motherboards, but the Plextor disk boot on every mb and chipset?
The reason the Samsung drive does not boot on most motherboards is because the controller simply doesn't have the files needed to be a bootable device while the Plextor does. Z97 (and H97) as a chipset natively supports M.2 drives, however, so by installing in UEFI you can essentially bypass the requirement of having those boot files integrated into the controller.
I've been trying to get a Plextor M6e (512 GB) installed into my A97 Deluxe for the better part of the week and Intel RST won't see it. My original setup is using an Intel 530 m.2 which I believe is inherently SATA, and Intel RST sees it without any fuss and allows me to set up a 64 GB cache as well as leaves the remaining space for a simple partition or whatever. What gives with the Plextor? Plextool won't let me secure erase because it reports back that the SSD is "froze locked". I've read that Intel RST will not allow the use of an Acceleration Cache on an SSD with data on it and if you secure erase the SSD, then Intel RST will play nice. From what Plextool shows, there's some 55 MB of info on this card even when all partition info is removed with the Windows Disc Management console. I've also disabled all the Secure Boot functionality built into the Asus BIOS. Still no worky.
I've never tried to make a M.2 PCI-E drive a cache, but if it is just that it needs to be secure erased than it shouldn't be too bad. The frozen error is a normal error you will get when trying to secure erase any newer SSD. When you get that error, you can try putting the system into standby, waking it up, then trying it again. On normal SATA drives you could pull the SATA power cable for a few seconds then reconnect it and it would unfreeze the drive, but M.2 is more complicated since it isn't as easy to just cut the power. If that doesn't work, I would contact Plextor support to see what they recommend doing.
However, I would encourage you to think about whether making the drive a cache is the right approach. I'm guessing this is for your OS drive, and with a 512GB SSD we usually recommend to just install the OS directly onto the SSD instead of making it a cache drive. Caching only improves program launch speed, but having the OS directly on the SSD improves everything related to read and write.
i dont understand one thing.... is this adapter conected to a pci express 3.0? can it be connected to a pci express 2.0 with same performance? ...... so..... the question ....can i connect this ssd m.2 x4 to a pci express 2.0 on an 990fx amd motherboard and expect the same performance?
We actually tested that, but left out of the article because we didn't want the article to get too complicated. To answer your question, we saw a very tiny increase in performance with a PCI-E 3.0 slot, but it was only a couple MB/s. In other words, well within the margin of error for this kind of testing.
However, this is only for these drives which are rated for PCI-E 2.0 . If drives come out in the future that are rated for PCI-E 3.0 I would expect them to perform better in a PCI-E 3.0 slot.
Did you find the same heat issues when using the drives with the onboard M.2 slots? I would like to do a small build like your Echo 1 using the Asus H97I-Plus, but I'm a little concerned that the drive will be sitting sandwiched between the board and the back of the case, so there would be little ventilation.
Yes. Due to that, we're not currently selling the XP941 in any onboard M.2 slots -- only in the PCI-E slot sled that includes a heatsink. The Plextor M6e does just fine though.
Do you know if the SATA based drives also run hot? The specs listed for the H97I on the ASUS website seem to indicate it will run the M.2 slot in either SATA or PCIe mode. For this particular system, the speed bump from running in PCIe mode is not really needed. I mainly want to keep it cool and minimize cables, so using the M.2 slot is attractive. Thanks.
We didn't test any SATA drives for this article, but we have used them in the past. I don't expect you'll have any heat issues whatsoever with a SATA based drive. They're a lot slower, and the controllers are a lot more mature and able to keep up with those speeds.
We are planning to upgrade a notebook Acer VN7-791G-70BU (V Nitro 17 black edition) installing Plextor PX-G256M6e M.2 2280 SSD 256 GB.

I've been reading about PCIe SSD's for days, trying to find facts rather than a lot of speculations on if they work as a boot drive, especially the samsung xp942, which I'm considering buying for my new build. I can't thank you enough in succinctly sorting out the 'wheat from the chaff'... and showing us the results of your findings. At least now I can go ahead and buy a Z97 mobo and put it with this SSD and use it to boot.
Does any Z97 mobo work to use this XP941 as a boot drive, as long as it has the PCIe x 4 or M.2?
I'm taking from your article, that an SSD adaptor into the x4 slot is the best way to achieve optimal read/write speeds regardless if it has an M.2 slot.
Just in case something got released that we don't know about, you mean the Samsung XP941, correct? For that drive, we have not yet seen a Z97 motherboard that did not work with it as a boot device as long as the OS is installed in UEFI mode. If it has anything less than a M.2 x4 slot, however, you are right that you would want to use a M.2 to PCI-E adapter in order to get full performance. In fact, with the XP941 we would suggest getting a PCI-E adapter with a heatsink (like the one we used in this article) due to how hot the XP941 gets and not even plan on using an onboard M.2 slot if at all possible.
Edit: Just want to add a quick disclaimer - we've only tested Asus and ASRock Z97 motherboards. While I would assume any Z97 board should work fine, I can't speak from experience for other brands like EVGA, Gigabyte, MSI, etc.
When you installed the XP941 into the bplus m.2 pcie adapter, was there any space between the heatsink and the actual chips of the ssd? When I went to install the heatsink on mine, I noticed there is a small gap that prevents them from actually touching. It's a very small gap, nothing big.. but still not technically touching. Wondering if thats ok?
You know, thats actually something we've started seeing on some of the bplus adapters. Sometimes it is fine, sometimes there is a gap. What we are doing is using an additional thermal pad between the ssd and the heatsink. Thermals might be slightly higher than if the heatsink was making direct contact, but the difference is actually much smaller than you would expect.
This is what we are using: http://koolance.com/thermal... . You probably don't need anything that large, but the price is actually pretty competitive compared to other quality thermal pads.
ah. good idea. I also noticed the little red rings that slide over the screws are kinda thick on one side. I wonder if removing those would allow the heatsink to make proper contact? Think they should even be there?
Yea, you could try that too. I don't think there should be a problem with the heatsink shorting anything if it comes into direct contact with the PCB, but you might want to use something in place of those washers just to be safe. A few layers of tape with a hole poked in it would prevent any possible shorting and would be thinner than the red washers that comes with the heatsink.
Do you usually find the 0.5mm thermal pad is usually enough to close the gap? Or do you use a thicker size as well?
We've only ever seen a very small gap, so for us the .5mm has been enough.
ah. yea. I'll have to check when I get home, but if I recall, the gap is only paper thin for me as well. Good suggestion. Another idea I had was to get some thin cardboard to replace the thick red rings. That way, the board is still protected from having the heatsink metal rub against it.
Did you end up putting the thermal pad on both the memory chips and the controller chip? I noticed on mine, the memory chips are actually higher than the controller chip, so If I put a pad covering both, then the controller still has a gap stuck in it.
I believe we just put it across the controller chip since that is the only thing that actually gets really hot.
By any chance, have you checked the SMART status of these drives in a utility like Crystal Disk Info?
I noticed on my first drive it says "Used Reserved Block Count (Total): 2E7" which from my understanding means it found "hex 2E7" worth of bad blocks and remapped them. Concerned, I RMA'd my first drive and noticed my second one says the same thing but with "833" blocks this time! Wondering if this is normal for these drives or did I just get stuck with two duds?
Great article, cleared up a lot of confusion for me. If I understand correctly, you've been able to boot from the XP941 in UEFI mode using the M.2 to PCIe adpater on a H97 motherboard.
So my question is, will I be able to boot using an adapter?
If so, which of these slots do you recommend using to get maximum performance from the XP941?
It should work as a boot device on your motherboard, but that exact model isn't one we use so I can't 100% guarantee it. As for which slot to use, I would definitely recommend the 1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (max at x4 mode, black) slot. The PCIe-x1 slots will really reduce the performance of the drive (since it is a PCIe x4 drive) and the 1 x PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16 (x16 mode, gray) is needed for your GPU.
Yes, this means you won't be able to do dual GPU in the future, but it really is the only open slot on that motherboard that will give you full performance from the XP941.
Thanks a lot, Matt! Took me a while to find this kind of comprehensive information on this subject.
So I take it that the Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD7 TH motherboard I just got is not compatible with an xp941 x4 without an adapter. And an adapter will cause overheating and loss of speed? If it works at all?
I can't speak directly to that Gigabyte motherboard, but we have found the PCI-Express x4 adapter cards with heatsinks to work very well in terms of cooling the Samsung M.2 SSDs and letting them run at full speed.
Thanks for a quick answer. What about after booting in UEFI with this SSD, I would lose all access to my SATA drives?
We don't have any experience with the X99 Pro specifically - we use the X99 Deluxe mostly. We have found that one some motherboards using a PCI-Express based SSD as the C: drive requires turning off sleep mode in Windows.
thanks, now , what are folks doing with these smaller ssd when windows 8 loads all of the win8 apps on the main c drive. From the store, you are not given any choice on where to install apps. Even some desktop programs dont ask any more. These smaller ssd will fill up. etc. DO folks move their Library folder or redirect to another drive.
Thinking might be better to use standard ssd like the 1Tb 850EVO rather than trying to out fox windows on where it install things.
How on earth do folks use these small 128 or 256 ssd as main drive when you cant tell where you want to install software.
It all depends on how much storage space you need. I have a 120GB SSD at work, and a 240GB on my main system at home - and so far both have been large enough. My home system did start out with a 80GB drive about five years ago, and then moved to a 120, and finally a year or two ago to the 240GB I use now. I think a ~250 - 500GB SSD is fine for most folks, especially if you have (or add later) additional hard drives.
Thanks. Thought that might be right, but still trying to figure out why MS wont let us pick where to install the metro apps. I dug around on net and found how to do it, but of course it takes digging into the registry etc. so not useful. Should be allowed to choose. I have 3 xtra internal HD and 1 external hd, but as said....some progs dont give you option to install somewhere else. Just install on C: with no option for somewhere else.
Yes, we found that putting them in the adapter cards - which include a heatsink - was much better in terms of temps.
thermal performance of SSDs in the M.2 socket.
any insights as to the temperature of the SSD without the heat sink.
to add a quick disclaimer - we've only tested Asus and ASRock Z97 motherboards.
Great info here....what thinking on using an ASUS X99 Pro mobo with this 941 as boot drive. ASUS compatability sheet says 941 is compatible...need it to be C: boot drive. any guesses if it will work without bunch of messing. Can I just load from the Win 8.1 pro.
Test: Copy the Programs Files (x86) folder from the C:\Programs Files (x86)\ to C:\temp\Programs Files (x86)\. The folder contained 117GB, 106,435 files and 3676 folders. A handheld infrared thermometer was used to take the temperature readings.
socket connected directly to the CPU PCIe bus and bypassing the Z97 chipset.
RESULTS: It took 7:39 minutes to copy the 117 GB of files. This was considerably longer than the 4:39 minutes it took in the article’s test to copy the 103 GB of ISO files. Presumably, this was because my test used many smaller files. The maximum temperature reached in any part of the Samsung XP941 was 95 °C at 5:36 minutes into the test. The Samsung XP941 then cooled rapidly similar to the results in the article’s video.
CONCLUSION: The Samsung XP941 operates at between 40°C to 50°C during normal operations. I have been taking occasionally readings of the SSD as it sits on my desk with the case opened over the past week. I have decided to go ahead with this setup and with no heat sink (as none is available for the SSD mounted directly to the motherboard M.2 socket). The performance is very good. It takes Windows 7 about 4 or 5 seconds to boot after BIOS is complete. I have installed all my software I on the Samsung XP941. I use a separate 3TB RAID 1 HDD for data. I give the Samsung XP941 4.5 stars (out of 5). I would like it cooler and would like the next Samsung M.2 PCI Express Gen3 (Gen 2 is all us mortals can get now) to get the last half star. | 2019-04-21T18:05:26 | https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Samsung-XP941-Plextor-PX-G256-M6e-M-2-Qualification-575/ |

Talking on the opening session of Shiloh 2018, the annual gathering of the members of the church at its Worldwide Headquarters, Canaan Land, Ota in Ogun State, Oyedepo who has been named as one of many richest pastors on the planet, stated this whereas reacting to speculations that he receives kicks from unnamed authorities officers.
“I don’t share any booty from any government. I have a clear conscience. I am dangerously wealthy. I am rich, whatever I want, comes. That’s what they call wealth,” the Bishop stated.
” /> What does he imply by that. Nicely if you end up the G.O of winners and covenant college we anticipate you to be rich.
Wealth involves those that want it, assume positively, & work for it.
Delight comes earlier than a…….
In a rustic that is considered the poverty capital of the world. A rustic with the quickest rising variety of web fraudsters.
A rustic the place individuals steal each other’s underwear to get wealthy.
The one factor a religionist can brag about is his wealth. A wealth obtained with out tax and sometimes from the gullible plenty.
And my countrymen proceed to cheer him on.

Every time I really feel like paying tithe, I choose giving it to the needy and to not the church. I assume it is the correct factor to do contemplating the truth that our church founders are rich and the wealth is coming from the tithes and providing donated by the church members. What baffles me is the poor lifestyle of those church members, so poor that a few of them hardly eat three sq. meals a day.
otherwise you imply your members are dangerously rich and made you who you’re?

Getting to work in the morning is a stressful time for Sarah. There are always a thousand things on her mind. Take this morning for example: As is often the case, Sarah was running late for work. She rushed out of the house leaving her husband Bill to ferry the kids off to school. The last thing she saw as she shut the door behind her was the frustrated look on Bill’s face as he broke into an argument with their 10-year-old daughter. As she ran to the car, Sarah glanced at her watch and shook her head. The car false started a few times before finally kicking over.
Sarah reversed out of the driveway and into the sea of oncoming traffic. The pressure was on and she knew that it wouldn’t let up all day. Ahead of her was important appointments and deadlines to meet. Her mind was so clouded that she didn’t even notice the beautiful blue-sky day.
Frustration and worry seemed to ebb away at Sarah as she thought about the crazy morning behind her and the busy workday in front of her. To add to her pressure was the tension building in her relationship with Bill over the refinancing of their home. Suddenly a car cut her off in traffic. She reacted before she had time to think, cursing the other driver. A second later she felt slightly foolish but justified all the same because the other car was in the wrong.
As she arrived at work and parked her car, she sat for a moment in the silence and noticed that her heart was racing. Her brow was creased with tension and there was an uneasy feeling in the pit of her stomach.
If left unchecked, the tension people feel in relation to the daily grind, financial pressure or relationship problems, have a way of impacting a person’s mental health. Without even being aware, Sarah’s internal mental dialogue has an impact upon her emotional wellbeing. Whatever Sarah feels emotionally has a direct impact on what happens in her brain (neurologically) and body (biologically). Depending on which brain-chemicals and body-hormones are being impacted will help to influence the choices Sarah makes, how well she performs at work, and how she relates to others (both at work and home). Sarah’s behaviour, in turn, will influence what she thinks – and the cycle begins again.
When Sarah is worried or under stress, a small part in her brain called the amygdala releases a protein messenger (neural peptide) instructing her adrenal gland to secrete the stress hormone glucocorticoids (commonly referred to as cortisol). Cortisol works to break down fatty acids, giving Sarah the energy to respond to her rushed morning at home and her busy day at work. As the stress dissipates, this hormonal reaction naturally subsides.
However, if Sarah remains in a state of angst throughout the day, additional cortisol will be released into her body to maintain a chronic state of arousal. Over time, Sarah’s excessive levels of cortisol will increases the amount of free fatty acids in her body, which in turn, contribute to the clogging of her arteries; forcing Sarah’s heart to work harder. Sarah’s white blood cells will start breaking down, and ultimately weaken her immune system. A negative psycho-physiological cycle has been set in motion with potential mental health consequences.
If not burned up through exercise, Sarah excessive cortisol will be converted into a special type of fat that acts like poison (leading over time to weight gain, ageing, and degenerative disease). Excessive cortisol will also to disrupt important wellbeing chemicals (neurotransmitters) in Sarah’s brain. Without healthy production and function of these neurochemicals, Sarah will struggle to maintain her mental health and emotional wellbeing.
Feeling stressed is not just a state of mind; it’s also a state of body. The sympathetic nervous system accelerates Sarah’s heart rate, constricts her blood vessels, and raises her blood pressure. To relieve this uncomfortable state, Sarah may be inclined to reach for paracetamol, sleeping tablets or a glass of wine to encourage the parasympathetic nervous system help calm her body calm down. However, all that does is create a biological tug-of-war. Using medication and alcohol to calm down when stressed is like pressing your other foot firmly on the brake and the other on the accelerator at the same time. Sarah’s engine is REVVING but she’s not going anywhere. If not returned to an idle, her engine over time may burn out, resulting in mental illness.
Everyone, from time to time, is impacted by the adverse pressures associated with life. Even great heroes from the Bible wrestled with mental anguish and even hopelessness. Elijah is a great example of how quickly mental despair can surface. After having witnessed one of the greatest miracles of all time, and performing one of the most heroic feats recorded in scripture, Elijah finds out in the wilderness taking sheltering under a Juniper Tree. Feeling completely exhausted and sorry for himself, he declares that he doesn’t know how to go on with his life.
God, however, intervenes. Not in the form of counselling or medication, but by giving him rests and nutrition to restore his physical energy. Interestingly, in Matthew 11:28, Jesus says something similar; “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest”.
Having rested and been restored physically, Elijah continued on to Mt Horeb to get a check-up from the neck up with God himself. Worrisome and depressive thoughts that result in despair and hopelessness often stem from a particular thinking style that traps or paralyses the individual. Negative thoughts that are rehearsed create neural loops in the brain, resulting in disillusionment (not knowing how to go on).
When God asked Elijah what he was doing there at Mt Horeb (why he had come to speak to the Lord), he responded with a self-righteous complaint, blame, excuses, and self-pity. In other words, Elijah displaced evidence of a victim mindset that lead to his emotional discontent and mental instability. God brought correction to his thinking (a renewing of his mind) before sending him back into the fray.
Whenever we feel persecuted, burned out, hurt/offended, hard done by, discontent or disillusioned, just like Elijah, we too run the risk of getting trapped by negative thought cycles. However, becoming aware of which specific thought styles tend to trap us, thoughts can be arrested (2 Corinthians 10:5), challenged and refocused (Philippians 4:4-8), and ultimately renewed (Romans 12:2), leading to transformation.
An obsessive thought style where one idea, memory, or problem won’t go away (usually based on a negative past experience). These automatic negative thoughts can be triggered by the smallest reminders and are pervasive in nature. For example, seeing a story on the evening news that triggers a memory of a past event. For the rest of the evening, the sticky thought can’t be shaken.
A self-centred thought style that sets hard like concrete is rather inflexible. Thoughts are typically ‘all or nothing’ in their orientation (eg, it is OR it isn’t; I want it OR I don’t want it; it’s always OR it’s never; it’s good OR it’s bad; it’s my way OR the highway – there is very little middle ground). This style of thinking is naturally experienced by children, which is why it’s also referred to as an immature mindset.
In the tradition of ‘rose-coloured glasses’, this particular though style comes about by looking at the world through lenses that colour everything grey (negative). The positives are quite simply unseen, or ‘re-coloured’, thereby allowing a person to maintain their negative outlook on life despite evidence to the contrary.
Anticipating negative outcomes. Trying anything new is a foregone concluded failure. For example, a ‘dooms day’ approach to meeting new people, starting a new job, or completing a test. This thought style often results in giving up before starting.
A thought style that holds one’s self personally responsible for negative events, irrespective of causal factors. This thought style not only catches the blame others would like to throw their way, but they also reach out and take the blame even when it’s not being thrown. For example, a driver is pulled over for speeding. However, the passenger concludes he is responsible because he was talking to (and therefore distracting) the driver.
To effectively manage stress, Sarah needs to learn how to reverse the process. This is achieved by (a) Make a choice to change her behaviour, which will (b) positively impact her brain and body processes, which will (c) help her feel more emotionally stable, which will (d) allow Sarah to think more clear, positive and constructive thoughts, which in turn will (e) help her make wiser choices about work-life balance.
There are much more effective ways for you to return your emotional-engine to an idling state.

thanks! :) so far, so good. waiting for everything to finish restoring @ this point. hope all the templates were included in the "scrape".
not sure @ incorrectly. when i asked it, the timestamps in history pages didnt seem to make sense, unless they were for eastern asia. but i might have read them incorrectly; or the timeclock setting may have changed since then.
Hi @Lx 121:, I think maybe we want something that can come up with this?
Hi back :) @Jeffmcneill: the idea is very cool, & i think we could do things with that; but the execution (as shown) seems kind of "cluttery" to me? i.e.: not well laid out for an "ordinary human" to process; at least not @ first glance, & not quickly.
"getting used to it" probably helps; but i think we could design the layout to be better.
i understand & approve of your plans, but we still need a basic framework to organise the material (certainly until "newer & better" is both implemented & passed its beta). mostly we already had a decent cat-system framework in place. not uniform across langs, but i had the eng sorted reasonably well.
new topic -- we should consider adding google search (site-internal) to our wiki. even IF the native search engine in media wiki ever does get significantly better, it is never going to "catch up" to what google can do. would also make us "better-integrated" with google, & for potential future google-based page "sponsorships" if we do that.
ok & ty, works for me :) although if they don't speak english, i may need help. but i can write up some standard messages to use.
yes, i have "any experience". i have been working on multiple wiki projects for about 10-12 years thanks. what are you qualifications?
& if you look @ the previous conversation, you will see that it was agreed by several admins, that i would try to "outreach" to potentially useful new editors.
please can you explain to me, with all your "experience", why it is better to prevent the user from having a dialogue on their own talk page?
because... i REALLY don't see your logic in this.
& please do not remove other user's messages from my talkpage, ever again.
i am perfectly capable of dealing with it myself, no matter what it is.
AND with your great experience, please could you explain to me why you think it is "better", NOT TO EXPLAIN to users, WHY they have been banned?
because, respectfully, i do not see the logic of that, either.

Custom Wood Trim, Moulding & Architectural Millwork - Walmer Enterprises, Inc.
We recently restored and added onto a home in a historic neighborhood. My goal was to create a modern farmhouse. With that said, I pursued clean lines on the interior. We had Walmer Enterprises do several built-ins for us. They were very open to altering the design to create a more modern clean lined look with our casework. The result was just what we wanted. The casework is seamless, clean and functional! Their customer service was great and the installers were very professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for custom casework. It’s money well spent.
There are other benefits to custom millwork and cabinetry from Walmer, no matter which of our options you choose. | 2019-04-24T20:48:30 | https://walmerenterprises.com/custom-cabinets-style-quality-price-options-northern-virginia/custom-wood-trim-moulding-architectural-millwork/ |
Entering the horizon Utar flaps, being dragged down by the heavy weight of a large cow. Dropping the cow, he settles down and begins to tuck in, regardless of whether his fellow dragons have seen him.
Espik shed a few tears, not sure where her friends were now.
Seeing something similar to herself, she made her way down a few slippy rocks, before squealing and loosing her footing.
The little dragon gets ripped out of his dreams and slides down from the flower.
A squealing noise caused him to leave his sleeping place.
He hides behind a bush and sees Espik.
His glares are fixed on her cause she looks similar to his kind.
Espik froze and looked at the other dragon.
"Sorry..." She haistily thought-spoke to him.
Breath tried to speak but it sounds a bit weird "Sowy?"
He gets closer and stops beside and starts to sniff her.
Espik was surprised at this spoken language, and tried to mimic it.
Isoroga roars out for other dragons which he can talk with.He feels the sickness to be alone. His roar isn't a roar with happyness its full with sadness.
He tilds his head staring at her.
"But I sleeped enough"Then he smiled.
"Is.. is you going to new land..s?" Espik attempted.
She thought about Ther, then sighed.
Hoping he was okay, she leaned over to a tree, pulling a juicy fruit from a tree, eating a grub that was on it.
She offered the fruit to the smaller dragon.
"New land?Me never heard about i.it"
He makes a curious glare and accepts the fruit Espik offered,eating it slowly while sitting on his hindquarter.
"When I was in my hard-hard, mother would tell me of it in my sleepy... I don't know where she goed." Espik said, sitting in front of the other dragon.
"Me, Espik. You have, self-name?" She asked curiously.
"I see" And he nodded.
"If you mean that thing what parents call you?Ehhh..I could hear my parents talking about the name Breath,I remember that exactly" Then he smiled.
"Yes,it's Breath." He raises and eyebrow.
"I also like your name." Then he smiled.
The small Dark Dragon giggled, then saw the lizard.
Breath looks over to the lizard and answers "Yes,friend."
"But i don't know him or her."
Espik watched the lizard wake up and yawn.
It wandered over to them and sat down.
Breath turns and sits down in front of the lizard.
"Do you have a name?" He asked.
Then he looked back at Espik.
The lizard yawned and stretched out it's forelegs, revealtin gthem to in fact me wings.
"Name? My name is Tehra."
Breath rised his head and sniffed the lizard.
His nose saves the smell of it and he looks at the creature.
"What is ehh new world?"
He points at Espik. "She said new world"
"New lands, you mean? A place where we live in peace. Far away."
"A life in peace?" Breath is confused.
"Isn't this place peacefull?" This makes him unsure who to trust.
But he is sure about that he can trust Espik and Tehra.
Espik shed a small tear.
"I got separated from my friends by a big, bad... hunter-thing."
He also sees Espik's tear and then he suddenly knows it can't be something good.
Then he frowned and his expression changes. | 2019-04-21T12:34:18 | http://nalaroth.forumotion.com/t27p125-the-harsh-skies-i-journey-to-the-new-lands |

Stateful inspection firewalls additionally referred to as dynamic packet-filtering firewalls — preserve a desk that keeps track of all open connections.

If it’s a part of a present connection, then the packet is permitted thru without further analysis. If the packet does not suit an existing connection, it is evaluated in keeping with the rule of thumb set for brand new connections.

As attacks against web servers became more commonplace, it became apparent that there has been a want for firewalls to defend networks from assaults at the application layer. Packet filtering and stateful inspection firewalls can’t distinguish among legitimate software layer protocol requests, statistics and malicious site visitors encapsulated within reputedly valid protocol traffic.

I really loved the parade last year, so I went again this year. Post Hurricane Maria, there was a markedly different tone, My friend and colleague Mayra, who's from Puerto Rico, has the message in her hand. At this point, we were in front of Trump Tower.
A lot of people were wearing hats that said 4645. That was well over the President's cheery estimate of forty some-odd lives lost. Throwing a bunch of paper towels was far from an appropriate response, and his profoundly insightful observation that Puerto Rico was a big island surrounded by water was not particularly helpful either.
Puerto Rico is under siege by vulture capitalists set on bleeding the island dry, closing the schools, reducing services, and doing pretty much whatever they can to squeeze every last drop of profit from the island. The United States could pay off the debt and free them from this nonsense, but chooses not to.
I was curious about the different colored flags. You can see in the picture at right that some are lighter blue than the others. I'm not sure why that is or what it signifies. Maybe nothing. My Puerto Rican friend couldn't explain it either.
I also saw some in black and white, and a lot of people dressed in black and white. I'm told that's a sign of militancy, standing against the vulture capitalists who have their eyes on decimating the island because they haven't yet acquired sufficient millions of dollars. A group pictured below sends that message to the President.
Here's the thing about parades--they involve a whole lot of waiting. Here you see the front of the UFT parade contingent. I don't remember what time it was when we took that photo, but UFT asked us to get there by 8:30. I missed a train and didn't make it until ten. We were supposed to start marching at 11, and I don't think we made it out until 12. So my advice, if you go to the Labor Day Parade in September, is get there at 9:30 instead of 8:30. The toughest part of a parade is standing around and waiting for it to begin.
This notwithstanding, for us it was a great celebration. We gave away t-shirts, flags, fans and bandanas. I tried to give them to children and the elderly, but there's something in America that pushes us to do anything for free stuff, and I sometimes gave in to demands. The most treasured item appeared to be the "Yo soy Boricua" t-shirt that most of us were wearing. Next was the bandana. My friend Mayra had a huge stack of them, but seemed to give them only to people who either cheered relentlessly or praised teachers. She criticized me for giving away stuff faster than I could replenish it.
We still haven't fixed the sign at left, which says, in English, "Union of teachers and professionals." It should probably say, "Union of teachers and other professionals." As is, it kind of says that guidance counselors, nurses, paraprofessionals, secretaries and others are professionals, but teachers aren't. That's not really fair. I mean, just because I'm unprofessional, it doesn't follow that you are. Actually, I'm not always sure it's to our advantage to call ourselves professionals. It's kind of in opposition to calling ourselves working people who need, you know, unions and stuff.
This is an odd year, and I find myself in an odd place. As a longtime critic of union leadership, I've disregarded a lot of warnings. "We're facing Giuliani, so now is not the time for criticism." "We're facing Bloomberg, so now is not the time for criticism." "We're facing Cuomo, so now is not the time for criticism."
I found none of that persuasive. In fact now, very much like Puerto Rico, we're facing an existential crisis. As far as I can see, there's never a particularly good time to stop telling the truth. Side effects of ignoring truth include Donald Trump and the crisis in Puerto Rico, among other things. But we're still the biggest teacher local in the country. Our fight for survival is crucial to us and all who'd follow in our footsteps.
At the parade on Sunday, we saw protest and celebration come together as one. On the right is my friend Alexandra, who was dancing to the ubiquitous loud music while a whole lot of us were standing around and complaining about how long we had to wait for the parade to begin.
In times of crisis, it's always hard to find a balance. I think the Puerto Rican Day Parade struck it on Sunday. Now all the rest of us have to do is figure out where the balance is each and every other day from now on. | 2019-04-20T11:08:54 | http://nyceducator.com/2018/06/puerto-rican-day-parade-2018.html |
Although he was a highly successful businessman and a long-serving Conservative MP, who put in a brief stint as a junior minister in the Department of Industry, there must be more than a slight suspicion that Michael Marshall would have given anything to be a first-class cricketer. He once said that had he played as an amateur he would have been able to list Harvard and Nepal after his name in Wisden. He played cricket for both and later captained the Lords and Commons Cricket XI. Some of his happiest moments were spent as a cricket commentator for the BBC and while he was working in India, he became a member of the All India radio Test Match Panel. Latterly he confined his cricket commentating to annual commitments to the Arundel Castle Cricket Club, but he was active also in the Sussex branch of the Lords Taverners, of which he was the founder Chairman. In addition to publishing in 1987 a fascinating account of the matches between the Gentlemen and Players between 1919 and 1962, based on more than a hundred conversations with former cricketers and well-known commentators on the game, he contributed to A Celebration of Lords and Commons Cricket (1989) and to My Lords (1990), and in 1995 wrote Cricket at the Castle.
His career as an author was not confined to cricket. In addition to writing five television plays and various radio biographies, he published Top Hat and Tails, a biography of Jack Buchanan in 1979, and edited two volumes of Stanley Holloway monologues (1979, 1980). The Book of Comic and Dramatic Monologues followed in 1981. His last book, More Sussex Seams, was published in 1999.
Marshall was also a passionate advocate of the live theatre and a fully paid up member of Equity and BAFTA. He had set up an all party group in May 1978 to advocate its cause and among his later campaigns fought hard for the establishment of the Theatre Museum in Convent Garden.. He believed strongly in the importance of theatre to the tourist industry and acted as parliamentary advisor to the Society of West End Theatres. He was a Trustee of the Theatres Trust from 1987-99 and in 1997 became Chairman of the Chichester Festival Theatre Trust.
Robert Michael Marshall was born in Sheffield on 21 June 1930, the son of a Master Printer and a Cabaret artiste. Educated at Bradfield College, he joined United Steel in 1951. Subsequently he studied at both Harvard, where he took an MBA in 1960 and at Stanford University. After serving as a branch manager in Calcutta 1954-58 and as Managing Director in Bombay 1960-64, he returned to Workington as Commercial Director 1964-6. He moved to Head Wrightson Export Co as Managing Director 1967 -9 and then joined Urwick Orr as a management consultant 1969-74.
He had joined the Young Conservatives in 1950, but it was not until 1970 that he first embarked on a political career, fighting the safe Labour seat of Hartlepool. He was adopted for the new and very safe Conservative seat of Arundel in 1972 and it was there that he met and married his wife, then Vice Chairman of the local Conservative Association. Elected to Parliament in February 1974, he speedily found himself joint Secretary of the Conservative backbench Industrial Committee and its Vice Chaiman 1976-9. He also served as Vice Chairman of the all party Committee on management. He put his experience and knowledge to good effect in fighting for protection for the independent steel industry and he helped expose the flaws in the Ryder plan for British Leyland. After two years investigating the British Steel Corporation as a member of the Select Committee on Nationalised Industries, he concluded that it needed drastic reconstruction if it was to survive, lessons that he strove to put into practice when he went to the Department of Industry as a junior minister. He was a staunch advocate of Japanese investment in British industry and warned of the dangers if industry did not invest in computers even if that led to short-term unemployment.
Nevertheless he was not seen to be a hard line Thatcherite. He served on the Party’s Industrial policy group and there were dire suspicions that he was among those voices reluctant to abandon the National Enterprise Board, suspicions that seemed justified when the incoming Government chose not to abolish it. Mrs Thatcher nevertheless had no hesitation in appointing him to be Under Secretary of State in the Department of Industry. Since the Department had two Ministers of State working to Sir Keith Joseph, his influence on policy was not likely to be great. He approved of the pragmatic and measured way in which Joseph approached the job of disengaging the Government from industry and was particularly supportive of the decision to continue investing in INMOS. He also favoured the Finniston Committee’s recommendations on technological education, and was perhaps disappointed with subsequent proposals for a watered down Engineering Council, which, he announced in 1981, would take them forward. He was a strong advocate of talks between the nationalised steel industry and the private producers to rationalise production and it can be assumed that he was on the side of those who argued for the retention of the NEB and its eventual merger into the British Technology Group.
When Joseph was moved from the Department of Industry in 1981, Marshall found himself relegated to the backbenches. He was immediately elected Chairman of the Parliamentary Space Committee and campaigned for satellite television, British participation in the Ariane space launcher, and long-term financing of the space industry. He put his own money and time into the industry, serving from 1982 as Parliamentary adviser to British Aerospace’s space and communications division and chairing Direct Business Satellite Systems Ltd 1985-90. He was also an enthusiast for the spread of information technology, serving as Vice Chairman of the Parliamentary Information Technology Committee 1982-7 and Vice President of the Conservative Computer Forum. In 1982 he produced The Timetable of Technology and two years later wrote No End of Jobs, in which he set out powerful reasons for believing that technological advance would produce some three million jobs.
In 1985 Marshall became Vice Chairman of the Inter-Parliamentary Union. On becoming its Chairman in 1987, he stood down from the Defence Select Committee. During a three year term, he presided over the IPU’s Centenary Conference in 1989 and pressed hard for British assistance to foster democracy in East Germany. He also did much to foster democracy in central and eastern Europe and was knighted in 1990. Two years earlier he had successfully introduced a bill to register publicly financed international Parliamentary organisations. In his final Parliamentary term, he served on the Procedure Committee 1994-7.
Boundary revisions to his seat seem to have prompted his retirement from the Commons in 1997, although it remained safe Tory territory. He continued an active business career, adding a non executive directorship of the Catholic Herald as late as 2003. But in recent years he was fighting a long and ultimately unsuccessful battle with cancer.
He married Caroline Oliphant in 1972. She had two daughters by a previous marriage. He died at Chichester, West Sussex on 6 September 2006. | 2019-04-25T18:15:22 | http://www.barneshistorian.com/vm-marshall.php |
In celebration of the 2019 International Women's Day, GTBank asked some female members of staff what balance means to them and this is what they said.
Balance is not a complicated word. It is an even distribution of weight enabling someone or something to remain upright and steady.
For some, balance means building platforms where women and men are represented equally. For us, it means Juggling corporate and household responsibilities without breaking a sweat.
Balance is gathering thousands of women from all over the world to celebrate their heritage, ambition, passion, strength and taste; creating opportunities for women to be and do more.

Top cancer stories of 2014 from CancerActive.
Albeit a little late, here are the top stories and trends in cancer for 2014. A number of them don’t just relate to cancer – they concern the very essence of your good health.We have got some really exciting developments coming in 2015. Watch out for them!
1. Developing cancer is just ‘bad luck’?
What rubbish is this?? It implies you can do little about getting the disease, nor about preventing it returning after being treated. However, as you will read, the mass media over-claimed a poor piece of research which left out two of the biggest cancers.
You are not doomed. The Science of Epigenetics has shown that rarely are there mutations in your core DNA, and the changes around your DNA (mistakenly called ‘mutations’ by sloppy scientists) are REVERSIBLE.Right now Big Pharma is trying to develop drugs to reverse the blockages around your DNA. But you don’t have to wait – about 60 Natural Bioactive compounds are proven to have epigenetic benefits. You just have to consume enough of them! But then, this is all in my book, the Rainbow Diet and has been for seven years or more!!
We have been telling you that common sugar (and especially High Fructose Corn Syrup) feeds a cancer cell, so avoid at all costs. Yet there are still some people who are in denial. They can’t be reading the research. For example, in January 2014, research showed sugar can actually cause cancer.The solution is to look for a non-added sugar diet – I have been banging on about the French Paradox for years – and colourful vegetables, a low added sugar and high fat diet is the basis for the Rainbow Diet. If you want something stricter – then you can always look at the Ketogenic Diet.
We have been telling people about Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for three years, but this year it came of age. Almost all who have used it, praise the effects. What are these? Well apart from a general improvement in well-being and lowered fatigue, HBOT reduces side-effects of radiotherapy and improves effectiveness of both chemo- and radiotherapy. In a 2012 overview of all studies since 2006, two American scientists showed there was even research linking it with killing cancer cells.The MS Society has HBOT centres across the UK and treatment (1 hour, two to three times a week) costs from 10 to 15 pounds per session.
New research shows that fasting for three days can boost the immune system – we know it can improve chemotherapy results and cut side-effects – after all, we have been telling you about the benefits of Calorie Restriction and Fasting when you are diagnosed with cancer, for quite a while. Fasting even stops cancer progression.
I just cannot believe how many copies of this book we sell. Especially now we print in different countries. I love the fact that people describe it as their ‘Bible’ and even keep it by their bedside. The book does what it says on the cover – it is all in there, the 4 main causes of cancer that you can cut out today, through to all the complementary therapies and how they might benefit you. It even has checklists on what supplements to take when and it covers many new, emerging therapies. It is only available though, through our wholesalers.
In January there was research on the links between gut bacteria and colorectal cancer. Then there was research on how taking probiotics lessened your risk of colorectal cancer. Then there was research on how taking gut bacteria can protect you against some radiotherapy side-effects. Gut bacteria – 93 trillion helpers inside your body right now. And a loss of volume and diversity leads to illness. Fact.This book is a 5 hour read – but when you put it down you will know what you need to do to recover your good health.
8. The year medicinal Cannabis started to make its mark?
From Australia to Canada and Spain to the UK, the medical benefits of cannabis seem to be growing in acceptance. 2015 even seems companies producing medicinal cannabis being launched on the stock market.It’s early days, but clearly the active ingredients of certain cannabinoids show promise. Here we provide a link to our article on cannabis, plus a link to Dr Christina Sanchez who seems to be something of an expert in research on cannabinoids and how they kill cancer cells. Then we give you a link to Sharon Kelly’s home made video on how Cannabis killed her stage IV Lung cancer.
UK Medical Authorities by and large seem determined to be left behind. They stick to a mantra of ‘Doctor knows best’ and the Holy Trinity of Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy and Surgery. Some even refuse to discuss Complementary therapies with their patients actually saying that they will be ‘struck off’ if they do. Meanwhile the benefits of building an Integrative treatment programme – where patients add complementary treatments to their orthodox programme is just a click away on your computer.Here’s a little selection of pointers to get you going.
Research in 2014 was clear: You don’t need to have been near a cigarette. The cancer that has grown from 12% to 40% of all lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer – and it is driven by oestrogen.But then so are many cancers – from some breast to prostate, colorectal to brain tumours, ovarian to testicular. And that’s why we wrote a simple book ‘Oestrogen – the killer in our midst. It tells you the simple steps you can take today to start reducing the level of aggressive oestrogen in your body.
11. Is the game finally up for screening mammograms?
By now you know my views. We should have been spending money looking for accurate blood tests not on expensive machines that potentially can do more harm than good. 2014 saw research from Canada that should have finished off screening mammograms for good.
12. Bribery, fraud, causing cancer, spreading metastases; anything else??
In the past, many people have been concerned about the ‘dodgy practices’ employed by certain elements of Big Pharma. In 2014 we have seen criminal convictions for bribery and fraud. A major company that works with the UK Government and Cancer Research has now been convicted of fraud, misleading information and bribing doctors. Twice. With more cases on the way.When it comes to the products, it doesn’t get much better. In 2014 there was a new study that said chemo induced more cancer – this just backed up one from a couple of years back that said it CAUSED cancer. It reminded me of the German Study that said Taxol caused breast cancer to spread.What a sorry state areas of BIG Drug are in at the moment!!
GSK – an endemic culture of fraud?
13. Are orthodox prostate treatments doing more harm than good?
If you read the research coming out of America, you would have to answer, ‘yes’. Both the PIVOT Study and a 2014 study on over 65s from UCLA actually show they achieve little and can even make matters worse.So what can you do to stop prostate cancer? From 2014 research it would seem: forget about the vasectomy, and lower your blood triglyceride levels. Read the triglyceride article if you want to know what to do next.
14. So what did 2014 research tell a cancer patient to do?
Research said: Start by taking vitamin D, and light daily exercise. Think about a daily small aspirin. And learn to sleep well (or consider taking melatonin). It could have said take fish oils, curcumin, CLA, resveratrol and more!
Xenoestrogens are linked to prostate cancer (again), alcohol-based mouthwash to throat and mouth cancers (again), Glyphospate is polluting water supplies and drugs used to treat IBS, Crohn’s and Colitis are linked to blood and lymph cancers.

This excerpt is taken from the complete article that appears in the March 2016 issue, which is available here.
Could a prepack be for you? Here are two excellent options.
So you’ve never considered a cymbal pack before and generally like to purchase cymbals one at a time based on what your needs are at the moment? That’s totally understandable. But could there be some great advantages to buying a handful of cymbals at one time? Like anything that can be purchased in bulk, you’ll often get a better deal.
A major emphasis in my gear shopping this year has been on increasing variety, while being mindful of finances. When it came to cymbals, exploration was key in finding what sounds worked best for me. Would I lean more toward bright or dark tone…brilliant or rugged finishes…thin or heavy weights…? The answer was all of the above, and the best part was that I didn’t spend a ton of money in the process.
After acquiring two cymbal packs, Zildjian’s A391 and Paiste’s PST7, I started with eight cymbals, and then narrowed down my final selection to four cymbals, which comprised two models from each pack. The other four were sold online. Let’s take a look at each pre-pack.
Check out a video demo below.

Can You Train Old Dogs?
Make sure you give your older dog time to rest and recoup.
You can indeed train old dogs, and there are good reasons to make obedience training a lifelong endeavor. After adopting a senior dog, for example, you may discover her previous owners weren’t particular about leash training only after she drags you around the neighborhood on walks. Or, your older dog simply needs a refresher course in Obedience 101. Plus, training old dogs is good for them. It offers critical mental stimulation that can delay cognitive decline in senior dogs, and helps prevent obesity by keeping them physically active.
Let’s look at some of the best practices for training older dogs and keeping them on their pads.
When you train any dog, daily sessions are a must to ensure lessons are retained. For senior dogs, multiple lessons a day are most effective. Get in the habit of giving your dog a lesson in the morning and one following an afternoon nap. If you can fit in another lesson before bedtime, all the better. Just be sure to keep training sessions short. Senior dogs need a lot of sleep and they get tuckered faster than young pups—pushing them to train beyond five or ten minutes will only frustrate them. Older dogs may even refuse to participate when training sessions run too long and become boring.
When training adult dogs and older dogs, focusing on one subject at a time yields the best results. Older dogs bring years of prior experiences they must unlearn to training sessions, or they may resist because of negative training experiences from previous owners. Some dog breeds have a natural stubborn streak that becomes only more entrenched with age. You’re less likely to overwhelm your dog or elicit resistance if you train her in one new command or trick until she masters it.
Older dogs can take longer to learn new commands and tricks than younger dogs. They are strong-willed and often think they know best; after all, they’ve been around the block a time or two. It’s also possible your senior dog has some degree of cognitive decline, which slows the training process.
But with positive reinforcement and patience, you can train your older dog over time. To help sustain your patience, it’s helpful to think of dog training as a lifelong pursuit. Viewing it as a one-off activity fosters frustration if your dog’s progress is slow.
And though your older dog doesn’t respond to praise and treats with the same tail-wagging exuberance as puppies or adolescent dogs, she is equally dependent on love, attention, praise, and treats to learn and put forth her best efforts.
Dog treats go a long way when training dogs from puppyhood through their senior years. Keep your pockets filled with treats during training sessions to use as positive reinforcement when your dog responds quickly to a command.
When you adopt an adult or senior dog, you may find yourself tasked with house training. It’s possible she lived her entire life outdoors and was never house trained, or she regressed because of time spent in the shelter. If your adult dog has regular accidents, take her to the veterinarian to find out if there’s a medical cause. Barring health issues, house training an adult dog is sometimes easier than training a young dog because an adult dog has more bladder control.
House training an older dog hinges on routines. Establish consistent meal times—one in the morning and one in the evening. Additionally, take your dog out to the yard, or for a walk, at the same times throughout the day, every day. During the house training period, avoid distracting play sessions until she associates the yard with eliminating. Every time your dog ‘goes’ outside, reward her with abundant praise and a dog treat.
Other helpful housetraining strategies include creating a consistent spot outside that she’ll associate with relieving herself. You should also watch your dog for trips to her water bowl so you can take her outside a few minutes after and thus assure you get opportunities to treat her and shower her with praise. Finally, consider crate training your older dog if she isn’t already so you can leave her at home in the early days of training without worrying about messes. Dogs won’t eliminate in their ‘dens’ if it’s at all possible to avoid.
When your dog has an accident inside the house, don’t punish her, scold her, or even acknowledge it beyond calmly cleaning up the mess. Dogs never have accidents to upset you—they simply can’t control themselves yet.
You don’t have to accept poor leash manners from your old dog—she can learn that dragging you around the block is not allowed. To start, focus your time and energy on teaching your dog to walk calmly without pulling rather than attempting the more demanding “heel” command.
Leash training old dogs depends on repeated actions and rewards—load your pockets with dog treats before every walk. When you are ready to go for a walk, repeat the same phrase each time, whether it’s “Walk time!” or “Wanna go out?” Once your dog’s ready with leash and collar, she’ll probably try to pull you through the door. Calmly stop and stand still, holding the leash firmly without yanking, which could hurt her neck. When she stops pulling and comes near you, start walking again. Each time she pulls during the walk, calmly stop until she settles down and stops pulling. When she walks for a stretch without pulling, praise her and give her a treat. You won’t get very far on your first few training walks, but soon enough you’ll be taking peaceful, enjoyable walks.
Your adult or senior dog may have a strong personality, but she isn’t set in her ways and incapable of change. Teaching her new tricks can make life easier for you, healthier for her, and much more fun for you both. | 2019-04-19T04:55:55 | https://news.orvis.com/dogs/can-you-train-old-dogs |

There’s no doubt digital out of home is a growing sector that is delivering returns to operators. But it’s a costly business, due to the rapid evolution of the technology used.
At least R10 million worth of digital out of home screen hardware alone was installed in the ground in every month of 2017.
core digital roadside billboard space, 13 media owners – four of them newcomers – increased panel count from 105 to 141 during the year.
This, he says, means that in a static market, digital out of home (DOOH) investment has increased. And when it comes to what he calls “alternative” DOOH spaces such as point of sale, taxi and bus ranks, stations, bars, retailers, gyms, and salons, the picture is even more impressive: 22 media owners (only two of whom were new to the industry), grew their DOOH networks by 20% to 16 472 (not including any first party digital networks).
Interestingly, says Burgess, a significant portion of investment in this category went into upgrading existing screens and reshuffling footprints, rather than just in expanding networks.
“This suggests the focus was on optimising audience delivery and network performance, which is more appealing to a client set that is increasingly looking to define and optimise ROI,” he says.
This article appeared on www.themediaonline.co.za following an interview with PMG CEO Jacques du Preez and other key players in the OOH industry. | 2019-04-19T06:50:59 | http://www.provantage.co.za/digital-home-media-move-growing-fast/ |
Described by the Lonely Planet as “Ethiopia’s most remote park”, the 4000 km2 area with its lower reaches encompassing the Omo River were declared UNESCO world heritage in 1980. The very little tourist infrastructure has arguably contributed to the preservation of its inindigenous people: the Mursi, Suri, Nyangatom, Dizi and Me'en. In recent years there traditional lifestyles have entered in conflict with African Parks Network (APN). In any case, this park of Africa’s Water Tower (Ethiopia’s nickname) doesn’t disappoint. Culturally, hominid remains from the Omo Valley probably dating back more than four million years can be found. Geologically, much of Africa's volcanic activity is concentrated along the immense 5,000 kilometer crack in the earth's surface known as the Rift Valley. In distant geological time, the crust was weakened and the land subsided. The valley walls - daunting blue-grey ridges of volcanic basalt and granite - rise sheer on either side to towering heights of 4,000 metres. The valley floor, 50 kilometres or more across, encompasses some of the world's last true wildernesses.
The immense 22, 270 Km2 park in Northwestern Namibia is known for the Etosha Pan, a unique flat saline desert which is metamorphosed by the rain into a lagoon hosting pelicans and flamingos for a handful of days in the year. The rest of the year the arid area bathes in specterlike white dust.
At the southern extreme of the Sinai Peninsula lies Ras Muhammad National Park, literally meaning ‘Mohammed’s Head’, understood here as headland. The Red Sea bordering park is a diver’s paradise: of its 480-km2 area, 380 are underwater. Only starting 50 cm below the sea the park’s enchanting coral reefs are visible. They hold 220 species in total, 125 of them soft coral. Given this rich aquatic flora, the area is also home to 1000 species of fish, 40 species of star fish, 25 species of sea urchins, more than a 100 species of mollusc and 150 species of crustaceans. Above the water, the inland area includes a diversity of desert habitats with important cracks created by earthquakes, within some of them are pools of water, some are over 14 meters deep. Given the area’s abundance in life and ecological role as a reserve, fishing used to be forbidden but has been restored quite inexplicably restored by the South Sinai governor. You can sign a petition here to protect the area from fishing. | 2019-04-20T13:36:31 | https://truetribe.paris/blogs/news/july-destinations-true-tribe-top-5-handpicked-national-parks |
After Brexit Vote, A Look At British Prime Minister David Cameron's Rise And Fall : Parallels The British prime minister was riding high after a sweeping election victory by his Conservative Party last year. But that campaign included a pledge to hold a referendum on Britain's EU membership.
Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron, accompanied by his wife, Samantha, speaks to the media in front of 10 Downing St. on Friday as he announces his resignation following Britain's vote to leave the EU.
Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron was at his political peak just last year as he led his Conservative Party to an outright majority in Parliament for the first time in more than two decades, surpassing all the forecasts.
Today, his political career is effectively over, the result of another surprise at the ballot box — the United Kingdom's vote to leave the European Union.
"This is how a political life ends: with a crash, not a whimper," Scottish journalist Alex Massie wrote in Foreign Policy. "David Cameron's place in history is now assured. He is the man who took the United Kingdom out of the European Union."
Which is exactly the opposite of what Cameron intended.
As part of last year's highly successful campaign, Cameron pledged to hold a referendum on EU membership. It was a promise he didn't have to make and didn't really want to keep. He favors a U.K. in the family of Europe, but bowed to pressure from his own party, which includes many leading Euro-skeptics.
Cameron's intent was to silence those critics with a vote reaffirming Britain's commitment to the EU. But the result has put the country on the EU off-ramp and brought an abrupt end to his six years as prime minister.
"I was absolutely clear about my belief that Britain is stronger, safer and better off inside the European Union, and I made clear the referendum was about this and this alone — not the future of any single politician, including myself," an emotional Cameron said Friday morning at 10 Downing St., the prime minister's office.
He said he would step down, though he'll serve as a caretaker until a new prime minister is chosen by his fellow Conservatives. The aim is to have a new leader in place by the time the Conservatives hold a party conference in October, he said.
Cameron had successfully navigated many potential pitfalls since becoming prime minister in 2010. He was on a winning streak and had reason to think he was on safe ground with the EU referendum.
Two years ago, Cameron sanctioned a referendum on Scottish independence, and successfully campaigned for its defeat by a convincing margin.
He called last year's triumph in the parliamentary elections "the sweetest victory of all."
While not great, Britain's economy has been one of the better performers in underperforming Europe.
And despite Britain's mixed feelings about being tied to Europe, the U.K. has been a Euro member for more than four decades. Britain signed up in 1973, back when it was called the European Economic Community. Just two years later, the country held a referendum on leaving, yet voters chose overwhelmingly to stay by a 2-to-1 margin.
But Cameron miscalculated this time.
The two overriding issues were the economy and immigration, and they were closely linked.
For the young and well-educated working in London's financial community, globalization has been a roaring success, filled with opportunities. For working-class citizens with stagnant wages, immigration and EU policies were often the scapegoat.
Cameron pledged to limit immigration to fewer than 100,000 people a year. Yet the free movement permitted under EU rules meant Cameron was in no position to stop the influx from other EU countries, which accounted for more than half of the 330,000 in net migration to Britain last year.
"Perhaps one day, even David Cameron will be able to appreciate the irony of his downfall: the man who became Conservative leader promising to end the party's appetite for strife over Europe has been destroyed by his decision to feed that hunger," wrote James Kirkup in The Telegraph. "For now though, he could be forgiven for a touch of bitterness about how cruelly political fortunes can turn." | 2019-04-19T17:19:14 | https://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2016/06/24/483348606/david-camerons-dramatic-rise-and-fall |
Clinical Research and the Cloud…two great things that don’t go together (yet).
Cloud computing seems to have become the best thing since sliced bread for most startups. With the arrival of Amazon Web Services and Google Apps, we have seen the rise of “pay-as-you-go, on-demand basis” for all aspects of IT infrastructure, including storage, servers, and processing speed. Already several startups have bet the farm on the cloud to pay off (Heroku is one example, joined by Twitter, SmugMug, and Scribd). Bigger players have also banked on cloud computing: Apple’s MobileMe service is the most recently cited example of working with consumers in the cloud.
Security – this is the big issue. The article even goes so far as to mention HIPAA by name, since it is that important for PHI, including clinical data.
Lack of auditing – another big issue, especially in the clinical trials space.
Reliability – what happens when it goes down? More on that issue in a moment.
It still has to exist on a server somewhere – what are the legal complications of hosting PHI in a server farm that could be in say, Russia?
And oh yes, it still has to be fast – as the article says, “the need for speed still exists” in companies, and not all of the cloud can address that issue.
This piece was eerily prescient, because after I started a draft of this post, Amazon E3 went down, taking with it several Web 2.0 startups, including the aforementioned Twitter, Scribd, and SmugMug. This is the second big failure this year for them, so Amazon’s cloud computing is definitely starting to get bit by the ‘reliability bug’. It’s worth pointing out that this is not the first time we’ve been taken with technology that operates on a cloud-like principle that blew up in our faces, as one blogger points out the linkage between Amazon in 2008 and Bell Systems’ failure in 1990.
So where do we go from here? Cloud computing is definitely becoming a huge trend for the enterprise, but not ‘prime time enough’ for something as mission-critical as clinical data. As an aside, our hosting plan is entirely under our own control and nothing is given up to an external system for reasons which are now painfully obvious. However, the most recent announcement by HP, Yahoo and Intel to launch the Cloud Computing Test Bed is proof that all is not lost when you bet on the cloud.
But the clouds will keep on rolling, and we, we’ll keep on watching (underneath an umbrella).
PS – Apparently, MobileMe hasn’t been doing so well either. So, if we ever do cloud computing in the future, we’ll have lots of mistakes to learn from.
PPS – A pair of passionate posts on Cloud Computing have been written recently by Hugh of Gapingvoid fame: they are here and here: “We’re potentially talking about a multi-trillion dollar company. Possibly the largest company to have ever existed.” He certainly sparks up the idea more than I have. | 2019-04-21T18:12:03 | http://blog.openclinica.com/2008/08/06/clinical-data-and-the-cloudtwo-great-things-that-dont-go-together-yet/ |
Usually, drinking plenty of water is sufficient to keep you well-hydrated post-workout. However, there are instances when that may not be enough (when you’re ill, in the sun too long, pregnant, or have been exercising strenuously for well over an hour). Coconut water is a great alternative to energy drinks, but if you’re looking for something a little bit more flavorful try one of these. The salt will help your body retain the water it needs, and the citrus juices contain electrolytes to help regulate bodily functions. Plus, they’re a lot cheaper than their store-bought counterparts.
Thanks for the inspiration, Everyday Roots! | 2019-04-25T08:29:07 | https://www.beachreadynow.com/homemade-electrolyte-energy-drinks/ |
Fans of the asymmetric horror game “Dead By Daylight” have raised over $500,000 for charity, developer Behaviour Interactive announced in a forum post on Tuesday.
Behaviour launched the Charity Case in 2017. It’s a collection of 26 cosmetics the team made in collaboration with “Dead By Daylight” content creators. All of the revenue made from the DLC goes to the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation, a global nonprofit that seeks to improve the understanding, prevention, and treatment of psychiatric and mental illnesses.
“At the end of October, members of the ‘Dead by Daylight’ team attended the Foundation’s annual Symposium and Awards ceremony. We were able to see first hand their direct impact on the lives of people living with mental illness,” it added.
The developer is now expanding the fundraising initiative by making the Charity Case available on consoles. It’s available now for all Xbox One players and for PlayStation 4 players in North America and Japan. Behaviour said it’s actively working on making it available for PlayStation 4 owners in Europe as well.
“Dead By Daylight” is a 4v1 horror game where one person plays the role of a serial killer and the others play Survivors trying to escape. It launched on PC in 2016, and on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in June 2017. | 2019-04-19T10:56:51 | https://variety.com/2018/gaming/news/dead-by-daylight-charity-case-consoles-1203080136/ |

OXNARD (105.3 The Fan) - Welcome back to the Cowboys Six Pack where after one preseason game, I am ready to go on the ledge and proclaim the Dallas Cowboys as Super Bowl Champions if these six things happen.
As our good friend Mike Fisher always says, there is more than one way to skin a cat and more than one way to win a Super Bowl, and that doesn’t mean that Dallas has to try to win one the way the Eagles did or the way the Patriots have, it means they have to find their groove, stay in it and never let up on their opponent.
If they can do that and these six things happen, then I think Dallas wins the Super Bowl.
I think these three things go without saying but I know some people will tweet me and be furious I didn’t mention, so: Stay healthy, make the playoffs first, win a playoff game. Yes, you are correct, cookie granted.
Demarcus Lawrence was amazing last year, 14.5 sacks was pretty good, it gets him to about tied for 95th all-time for a single season. Let’s try to get in the “tied for top 20” category.
I know the pressures and impacts he made aside from just taking down the quarterback made this a significantly different defense. He is on a single season contract vying for the big money again and seeing him make it through another year would be great.
Man, I’d be sure to lay out that long-term deal though if not only he added 3-4 more sacks, stretched offenses a little thinner and made the rest of his fellow defensive linemen better. He needs to be a transcendent player this year.
The Eagles Zach Ertz was their leading receiver with 824 yards. Nelson Agholor and Alshon Jeffrey combined for 1500 yards and 17 TD’s, neither had more than 800 yards.
New England in 2016 had Edleman who had 1106 yards and three TD’s, those are No. 1 like numbers except he was a slot receiver a lot and the TD numbers are minuscule to the idea of what a real No. 1 is.
The Denver Broncos had Demaryius Thomas in 2015 with 1304 yards and 6 TD’s, really good, but Emmanuel Sanders had 1135 yards on 41 less targets and 6 TD’s. Sounds like they had two options at No. 1 and they dismantled opponents with a QB who while on his last leg was probably the smartest to ever play the game.
Golden Tate had 898 yards and 5 TD’s and while Doug Baldwin had 778 5 TD’s.
The list goes on, but the point is for everybody thinking the Cowboys are sunk because they have no Dez Bryant at receiver, you are wrong. They have more options and more speed than they have ever had before. They simply have to be effective at spreading it around and finishing drives. Of course, it makes you feel great to have one guy who can beat any CB, but A) Dez wasn’t that guy anymore and B) defenses have proven that if you only feed one player, they can shut your offense down. I think the Cowboys have plenty of options to find mismatches on the field and that’s what the advantage always is with sports, mismatches.
I know what to expect out of Sean Lee. Every year, when healthy, 100-145 tackles and a couple of INT’s. I don’t know what to expect out of rookie Leighton Vander Esch, though from what I’ve seen so far I have a feeling the game won’t be too fast for him in his first year.
Jaylon Smith is a wild card.
I know what I want him to be, I know what everybody wants him to be. They want him to be a Top 5 pick that the Cowboys got for a steal in the second round.
He has the personality of a king and the work ethic of a bricklayer (just look at those biceps).
All of that being said, he’s a guy I am selfishly pulling for because he’s one of the good guys and if he can make it, then he is a guy the entire Cowboys nation can root for and point to.
He’s also got an inspirational story of overcoming something that many thought he never would. That being said, if he can play like college Jaylon Smith, then he can cover, attack the quarterback and challenge any running back inside or outside of the tackles. That threat does this.
When a QB steps to the line everybody on the offensive side of the ball has to make sure they know where Demarcus Lawrence is, and Sean Lee. Now you’ve added another player you have to figure out, and if you have a defense full of those types of guys, that gives quarterbacks panic attacks.
I don’t need him to force 5,000 yards into this season, I have Zeke in the backfield.
I need him to have 7 less INT’s thrown, whether bouncing off the hands of receivers or on his own accuracy shortcomings, and 7 less sacks. That being said, take away Adrian Clayborn’s day in Atlanta and you can get those sack numbers down easy.
Last year, Dak was well on his way to having a better passing yards and TD’s season last year than he did in his first season. If he can get those two things down, he will have a better season this year.
I don’t need him to be Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady, throwing on every play. I need him to be efficient, protect the ball, threaten with his legs and when everybody thinks hand off to Zeke he strikes for pay dirt down field.
If Dak can do that, this team can be in contention.
I don’t care if it’s Earl Thomas, which would be another one of those “how many playmakers does this team have” players for a quarterback to panic about, or Xavier Woods, I just need a guy that knows how to help his CB’s and can make impact plays on the ball.
I feel like the line of scrimmage is taken care of with my LB’s and DL, and if my safety is leading my team in tackles then that means too many players are getting to the second and third level. The safety position is the most athletic dude on the field and must be able to stretch all over.
If one of these players turns into a playmaker or they add Earl Thomas, it’s icing on the Super Bowl cake. Otherwise, it’s a bit of a struggle.
I know the media has moments where they defend the heck out of him, and then moments where they bash him until they’ve already found his replacement.
There is a Jason Garrett though that when he has confidence in what his team is capable of, and when they’ve obviously proven to him they can accomplish what he’s asking then he makes decisions that are out of the ordinary. Going for it on fourth down is always a questionable decision, but some of the best coaches in the history of the league have no fear of that when they know the pulse of their team.
Garrett is a stickler for consistency and routine, but every once in a while in this sport, you punch somebody in the mouth to let them know who owns the field. Garrett has been punched enough times.
Players start to froth at the mouth at the stats they are about to put up, and while Garrett’s reserved uniformity is good for setting the foundation, it’s time to put a roof on this thing, and then blow that son of a gun off.
Do these things, Cowboys, and you’ve guaranteed yourself a championship. | 2019-04-23T22:49:36 | https://1053thefan.radio.com/articles/news/dallas-cowboys-win-super-bowl-if%E2%80%A6 |

Mothers and women – if you polled us a group, how many of you would raise your hand and say you have been overly tired or in a poor state of mind in the past week? in the past month? in the past year?
Perhaps the whole lot of us would raise our hands in the affirmative. It is no secret that women suffer from fatigue and depressive* disorders more frequently than men.
In fact, many of the diagnoses connected to these symptoms were not even “believed” to exist until very recent history.
But as women, we know our bodies. As a health care practitioner, I have long supported many women with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, & longstanding depressive symptoms in my clinical practice. Even as late as the 1970’s, grief was not even supported as an actual state of being. So it is no surprise that women have been unable to figure out what was “wrong” with them through the years. Unable to fit into a neat medical chart, their symptoms piled up- exacerbated by their mounting responsibilities as women, mothers, and human beings.
Through the years though, medicine has come to recognize that there is a psycho-emotional body, an energetic body – and it greatly affects the physical body. Women in my practice continue to improve in health when they receive compassionate physical therapy blended with a multi-cultural approach to healing. This approach I call “elemental renewal”, the ability to see the person, not just the diagnosis. The ability to see all facets of the person and create a therapy program just for them.
The most common life experiences which can contribute to the “super fatigue” and mood shifts are, you guessed it, pregnancy, post-partum, life changes, job related stress, and the constant state of stress that is associated with child rearing and otherwise existing on this planet as a woman and/or mother.
In my practice, my first line of defense in helping women is teaching them how to breathe. So this week, I am going to dedicate the entire week to teaching you how to breathe – one day at a time, one breath at a time.
Each day this week, you will learn a different breath type so that you can have your own personal energy and mood lifting practice. In fact, sometimes I only need 2-3 minutes of concentrated breathing to turn my day around!

David Cameron and George Osbourne pledged to focus on manufacturing for the UK to grow its way out of recession and the “Northern Powerhouse” was a key component of this.
The service sector in the UK remains a massive component of the economy but with the weak Sterling, manufacturers are taking advantage of the export opportunities that arise.
Local manufacturer, Springfarm Architectural Mouldings (SAM), is one such company. Their growth post-recession has been such that they have now topped 200 employees and are always on the lookout for new talent.
The past 20 years have seen a major focus on tertiary education on the way into the job market, but with the rising cost of course fees, and more competition for jobs from increased numbers of graduates, university isn’t always the best option.
SAM supplies MDF mouldings to the construction and DIY sectors throughout the UK, Ireland and several European countries. The skill sets required are wide ranging, from skilled moulder and paint line operatives to stores personnel, customer services, planning and logistics, product development and engineering, as well as the traditional disciplines in finance, HR, IT, sales and marketing.
Elizabeth Burrows started working for the company in an administration role in July 2004 and is now assistant procurement manager.
It isn’t just in the office that people can progress either. Kieran McAllister started with SAM in February 2002 as a factory operative, and since then he has been employed as a logistics manager on night shift, assistant operations manager and manufacturing cell leader. He is now a weekend scheduler.
With the growing move to apprenticeships, SAM now recruits and trains school leavers on this journey to employment and takes on students through the Prince’s Trust, the youth charity that helps young people aged 13 to 30 get into jobs, education and training. Peter Adeyinka and Luke Jones both started working in SAM through a 2-week placement organised by the charity. Peter is currently working on a part-time variable role and Luke is in full-time employment. They have both worked in a number of areas through the factory and have received training at each stage. When asked what they enjoyed the most about their job, Peter said he loved working in the pick and pack department while Luke said he liked the people and work in general. | 2019-04-26T14:06:40 | https://www.samonline.co.uk/hot-off-press/ |
Team stacking is pivotal for daily fantasy baseball success. It's not only important to pick the right team to stack, but to also pick the right players on that team to stack. We set out to design an application to serve as your command center to optimize your hitter stacks for MLB contests. The result: the ASA Team Stack app.
Site input - Select the site scoring format you want to view.
Team input - Select the team you want to view in the app output tabs below. You can only view one team at a time in the "Runs vs. Team FP" tab (7), and you can only view players from the team you select in the other three player tabs (8-10). For players that have played for multiple teams in the selected date range, you will only view data of the such players produced while on the specified team.
Player(s) input - Select the players whose data you want to view in the player-level tabs (8-10). The default is set to show the players from the specified team with the eight highest medians.
Player vs. runs comparison type - This input relates to the "Runs vs. Player FP" tab (9). Through this input, you can specify if you want the output to plot team runs (x) vs. players' fantasy points scored or the proportion of the team's total fantasy points each player accounts for (y).
Date range input - Specify the date range for the data which you want to consider.
Raw data download button - Download the batting box score data for the team, players, and date selected.
Runs vs. Team FP tab - This tab displays a box-and-whisker plot of the team's total fantasy points scored across the different run totals they have scored during the specified date range. This article offers a short description of how to interpret box-and-whisker plots. Beneath the boxes is a trendline showing the general relationship between runs and total batting fantasy points specific to the team specified in input (2). This plot can be used in conjunction with pre-game implied run totals to develop crude projection for a full team stack (even though you can only select at most 4-5 players from a single offense.
Player FP Proportions tab - This tab displays box-and-whisker plots for the historical proportion of a team's single-game fantasy point totals accounted for by each of the players specified in input (3). While this tab doesn't account for specific hitter-pitcher matchups, one could crudely use this tab in conjunction with (7) to project a median expectation for fantasy points scored by a player conditional on expected runs scored by the team by multiplying a player's median proportion by the median team total fantasy points associated with the team's implied point total.
Runs vs. Player FP tab - While the player proportions tab (8) provides a general summary of proportion of team total fantasy points accounted for by each player, it doesn't provide any context about the conditions in which players contribute higher and lower proportional fantasy point totals to their team's total. This tab plots the player-specific trendlines between team runs scored and player fantasy point totals (default) or proportion of team fantasy points, depending on selection in input (4).
Player FP Correlation tab - This tab allows you to consider the historical correlation between all the players selected in input (3). This matrix only considers data points in which both players at the intersecting cell were starters. For guidance on interpreting correlation coefficients, consult this short Wikipedia page. This is a computationally intensive page to generate, so you may experience some lag in the output of this page after changing or initializing any of the inputs. | 2019-04-19T04:16:10 | https://advancedsportsanalytics.com/team-stack-app/ |

Thomas Bernhard combined a searing wit and an unwavering gaze into the human condition. His debut novel, Frost, marked the beginning of one of the century's most provocative literary careers.
Visceral, raw, singular, and unforgettable, Frost is the story of a friendship between a young man beginning his medical career and a painter in his final days. The youth has accepted an unusual assignment, to travel to a miserable mining town in the middle of nowhere in order to clinically—and secretly—observe and report on his mentor's reclusive brother, the painter Strauch. Carefully disguising himself as a law student with a love of Henry James, he befriends the aging artist and attempts to carry out his mission, only to find himself caught up in his subject's apparent madness. | 2019-04-18T14:58:30 | https://www.fantasticfiction.com/b/thomas-bernhard/frost-vintage-international.htm |

HMS Astute S119 Royal Navy Submarine.
Built : BAE Systems Barrow-in-Furness and launched 8th June 2007.
Commissioned 27th August 2010 for Clyde Naval Base, and on sea trials.
Length 97m., beam 11.3m., draught 10m.
Propulsion Rolls-Royce PWR2 reactor giving speed 29 knots submerged.
Crew 98 officers and men.
Armament 6 x 533mm tubes.
This is the Hobby Boss 700 scale plastic kit of HMS Astute with full hull or waterline options. The kit has a minimal number of parts with more decals than actual parts unless you prefer the waterline option.
The build is quick and simple even with the water base option as shown. It also gives you a chance to show your black painting skills or technique. I used White Ensign Models disruptive black with a Windsor and Newton polar white ink wash to reduce the effect. There is some MIG rust color but very limited.
My result is a nice quick exercise to keep your hand in and build a value for money £3.75 from your local shop, kit. | 2019-04-25T21:51:15 | http://aeroscale.kitmaker.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=features&file=view&artid=4266 |

COLOMBO (Reuters) - Sri Lanka’s police used batons to disperse hundreds of supporters of losing presidential candidate Sarath Fonseka on Thursday, police and a Reuters witness said, in a second day of protests against his arrest.
Tensions have risen on the island since former army commander Fonseka was arrested on Monday by military police on charges of engaging in politics against his president while still in uniform.
“Police are beating the protesters with batons,” said a Reuters photographer at the scene of the protest in a Colombo suburb.
Fonseka had appealed to his supporters to remain calm, his wife told reporters, after visiting the former general in detention.
Fonseka and President Mahinda Rajapaksa worked together in ending the 25-year war against Tamil Tiger separatists last year, but fell out soon after.
The army general ran against Rajapaksa in a presidential election last month, but was roundly defeated, after which he accused his former commander-in-chief of rigging the vote.
The government said Fonseka had conspired against the president and would face a court-martial.
Police detained eight people following the protest on Thursday, spokesman Prashnath Jayakody said. “When the police asked them to move away from the main road they clashed with police,” he said. On Wednesday, eight people were injured in clashes between supporters of Fonseka and government activists.
The street protests, strikes and labour unrest could have a ripple effect on Sri Lanka’s $40 billion economy, which is poised to grow over 6 percent this year due to post-war economic optimism and high foreign investments, analysts say.
Sri Lankan shares fell for a third straight session on Thursday on the growing political uncertainty, traders said. The bench mark index was down 1.3 percent.
“Foreign investors will slow their investments looking at the present situation,” said an analyst on condition of anonymity.
Earlier this week, Rajapaksa dissolved parliament ahead of schedule and called elections in April, hoping to build on his own victory in the Jan. 26 presidential poll.
On Thursday, the European Union urged Sri Lankan authorities to ensure the rule of law and safety of candidates and campaign workers. The United States asked the government to protect the rights of opposition supporters and the press.
The United Nations said that Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon had discussed Fonseka’s arrest with Rajapaksa in a telephone call and expressed concern about the events. | 2019-04-26T15:10:23 | https://in.reuters.com/article/idINIndia-46090220100211?rpc=401&feedType=RSS&feedName=southAsiaNews&rpc=401 |
It is time for The Huffington Post (in conjunction with IAC) to reap the rewards of more than one year's worth of work. Today marked the launch of news parody site 23/6. The site attempts to go the route of The Colbert Report, pretending to be conservative, but portraying stupidity. They get the stupid part right, but the funny but falls far short of the mark.
The site is allegedly attempting to reach "young news junkies and comedy fans" through its coverage of completely made up news and what it thinks is viral video. I guess no one told Ariana and Co. that for a video to be viral, you should probably think about allowing off-site embeds.
The president of programming for IAC says that the team took over a year to settle on it's approach to how to convey news in a humorous manner, and settled on what he's dubbing an "up-to-the-minute topical comedic reaction to news and current events." Again, the only problem with this is that as best I can tell, none of the news reports feature actual news, instead centering around stories like Mukasey and Leahy "awkwardly meeting at Home Depot where Mukasey purchases a watering can." There's plenty of actual news to parody and report rather snarkily on. A blog full of fake news must be spot on in its invective and satire, or otherwise it just appears juvenile.
Another winning idea put forth by 23/6 is a mock 527 group advertisement entitled Swift Kids for Truth, where kids make up negative stories about presidential candidates. It's appears to be satirizing the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth ads, but fails on the funny by several measures, not the least of which is the lack of timeliness. The last Swift Boat advertisement ran in late 2004, and were refutations of actual stories told by Senator Kerry, instead of wild and ludicrous allegations that even a child could see through.Then again, we shouldn't be surprised that the Huffington Post should try so hard to come up with something relevant and hip, yet fails miserably. This is the political blog that hired an ex-CBS executive for its new CEO (the irony being that political blogging bought it's reputation debunking CBS anchor Dan Rather's fake news about President Bush's less than spotty military service record).
All this from the creative team behind the blog that keeps raising venture capital and keeps climbing the ranks. Perhaps they should quit while they're still ahead, and focus on a market they actually seem to know how to pander to, because funny they're not. | 2019-04-22T00:19:38 | https://mashable.com/2007/11/09/236-huffpo-snatches-defeat-from-the-jaws-of-victory/ |

As "Ben" (Ben Martin) pointed out how to lose his interest in reading a blogs, I would like to add to that list. In addition to every blog in the world going absolutely crazy with advertising and Google ads, my latest annoyance is shameless plugs about your products or services. This just gets very old, very quick. I'll make one compromise: if you are talking about something relevant to your product and/or services and want to make a very subtle plug about what you've done, ok…but do NOT do that in every other post. It is absolutely obnoxious. You will without a doubt lose our readership, as well as many others. Please continue to blog, but without shameless self promotion. It is a definite no, no. | 2019-04-26T06:32:28 | https://www.gulosolutions.com/shameless-self-promotion-is-a-no-no/ |

Did you know? In one second on the internet there are 12,964 Instagram photos uploaded, 50,000 Tumblr posts, 400,000 Tweets. Among all this user-content that’s created every second, you have a LOT of competition for your buyer’s attention.
Sarah Skerik, Vice President of Content Marketing at PR Newswire, shared lots of tips in her breakout session presentation at Content Marketing World around creating press releases or creative content and how you can get them promoted so your target audience will see it.
The most emailed & most shared stories get the most action – make a point to mine content that gets high engagement elsewhere.
We’re starting this Spring Break week off with a very rare guest post. Jiyan Wei is Director of Product Management at Vocus, Inc. where he drives product platform strategy and roadmap execution for PRWeb. I’ve presented on panels with Jiyan several times at search marketing conferences, talking about the virtues of search, social media and public relations, finding him to be a very strategic and smart marketer. We’ll be co-presenting at the upcoming MarketingProfs B2B Forum in May on Content Optimization and Marketing.
Once upon a time, Page 1 had a special meaning for PR practitioners and business owners alike.
Recently I was invited to give a basics webinar on optimizing news content for search. The intersection of search and PR/communications are obviously something quite familiar.
The outcome exceeded all expectations thanks to the excellent promotions by PRWeb and SEW plus Mike Grehan’s smooth handling of moderator duties amidst technical difficulties. Over 7,000 people registered, there were over 400 questions and 650 Tweets using the #prweb hash tag during the webinar.
The way it goes with many webinars when you’re invited by an organization to participate, is that the topic and title/description are determined beforehand. The speaker adapts themselves to that. This presentation content focused on optimizing writing for the web with a particular emphasis on optimizing content common to public relations.
Today at the PRSA 09 conference, it was a packed room for TopRank CEO (and author of Online Marketing Blog) Lee Odden who gave a presentation on SEO for Public Relations.
He started by explaining why SEO is/should be important to PR Professionals.
In a 2008 Journalists Use of Search Survey by TopRank, we discovered that 91% of journalists use standard search to fulfill a component of their job whether researching a story or locating a subject matter expert.
With journalists writing for more channels and with less resources making your content visible within search is critical.
Optimizing press releases can be an important part of any Search Engine Optimization (SEO) program. It’s usually pretty easy to convince clients of the need to optimize news content since these kinds of releases can reach journalists and bloggers as well as consumers. One common question I often hear involves getting optimized press releases approved by the Public Relations department. PR approved news messaging and SEO keywords are often not in alignment.
An additional consideration is that optimizing press releases often crosses over into different departments, creating an additional group of people who need to be convinced of the benefits of SEO. | 2019-04-25T00:19:40 | https://www.toprankblog.com/category/public-relations/press-release-optimization/ |
This article is about the different types of breast implants that your plastic surgeon may suggest you. The most commonly used ones are mentioned below.
Saline implants are one of the most commonly used and most popular implants. The outer shell of this is created out of silicon. This shell is filled with sterile salt water. This is known as the saline. The name of this implant is due to this solution. The FDA has approved this so one can use this without any tension. But the law specifies that this is for women who have reached at least eighteen or older. This can be used for breast reconstruction among the women of any age. The good thing about the breast implants that made out of saline is they have uniform shape. Another feature is the firmness of these breast implants.
Lime breast implants made of saline, the silicone breast implants also have a silicon shell in the outer part. Inside this shell, the silicone gel will be kept. The gel gives the feeling that the implants are natural. This really will give you the feeling of the natural tissue. This is as popular as the breast implants made of saline. A lot of people are using this. People usually find this very comfortable also. it is the natural feeling that makes this implants more popular. The FDA has approved this. But the law specifies it that only women who have attained the age of 22 or more can use this. This can also be used for breast reconstruction in women of any age.
Both saline and silicone implants have the same kind of outer shell. It is the inner content that makes them different. While saline implants have salt water inside, silicone implants have gel inside. When some ruptures happen, the saline solution will be absorbed by our body and it will not cause any trouble. This will change the size and shape of your breast anyway. Other than this, there is no risk involved in this. You can approach a doctor and remove the implants. If you wish, you can insert a new implant at the time of removing the old one. In case any rupture happens, the silicone implants will be affected by it. The silicone gel will remain there inside. It will not go outside or get absorbed. In fact, you may not discover this suddenly. Sometimes, this will never be observed! An MRI scan can detect whether the implants are intact or not. Anyway, if you do not feel anything uncomfortable, even if the implants are displaced, you can opt not to remove the implant. The silicone gel will not cause any health hazards like cancer, etc.
This type of breast implants is also called Gunny Bear Breast Implants. The good thing about these implants is actually the shape of them will remain unchanged even when the outer shell is broken. These are firmer than other breast implants. This is thicker than silicone gel implants. The important thing about these implants is that they are not brittle.
There are a lot of varieties in breast implants. New models are coming also. The round breast implants are a good option if you are going for a surgery. Smooth breast implants are another good choice. This will give you the softest experience. Textured breast implants are also a good option. | 2019-04-23T20:40:41 | http://www.liposuction-sydney.net.au/types-of-breast-implants/ |

My lip balm addiction collection started from a very young age, where I almost owned all the colours and flavours of Labello chapsticks. Now, having continued my obsession with lip balms, I’ve got enough to build an entire dollhouse. I always have at least 3 different lip balms (handbag, makeup bag, jacket) with me, wherever I go, whenever I go –my lips get chapped very easily, especially with the cold wind outside and the heater blasting indoors.
Eh, do I have to elaborate on this choice? Being regarded as the cult-of-cult lip balm in the beauty industry for decades, this was a rather obvious choice for me to put in here. I’ve been using EHC for over 6 years now and through my obsession with the product, I’ve accumulated all kinds of variants of the latter at home — be it a tub, bullet, pot or tube. It’s the best for keeping lips moist throughout the day, as a brow set or on skin rashes.
Technically not a lip product, but as per above, a multi-purpose balm. It comes in a big tube, so not per se the most on-the-go-friendly product, but its brilliant despite being chunky in the handbag. I love this as an overnight lip treatment and apply it really thickly. It’s great as a lip primer as it’s nourishing yet not sticky, nor slippery and has a matte finish.
Because of the beeswax, it’s rather difficult to get the right amount of product on your fingers and then apply it onto your lips. It’s quite solid, so you’ve got to rub quite a few times, though little goes a long way. It’s 100% natural and made from a blend of nice oils. It’s very fresh and minty and leaves a slight tingly feeling to the lips, which I thought was weird at first, but now I love it. Mint-haters, be aware: this is not for you.
I think the first time I bought this was after I saw Lisa Eldridge talk about it in one of her videos. I regard Lisa’s recommendations like beauty law and had to try it — and of course it didn’t disappoint. Made from honey, it is a velvet balm that has a gorgeous matte finish and is great to wear below lipstick. Doesn’t make it bleed, run or slip away and makes wearing those mega matte lipsticks less drying and more comfortable.
Flashback to somewhere in the early 2000s/noughties/or whatever you’d like to call it, me and my mates started a little obsession trend at school, showing around our Rosebud Salves. Now, quite a few years later, I’m still stuck with my stash and have got strawberry, mint and eucalyptus flavoured Salves in my drawer. I love these as they’re really light on the lips and you don’t feel the product at all, while it’s coating your lips in a nice layer of well… whatever it is. Truth to be told, it’s not a natural balm, but actually more chemically based. It’s just that I got my childhood memories linked to it and the tub is just so vintage-cool-looking — I can’t help it okay.
I adore Kiehls and I love this little tube. Lots of people I know have had mixed feeling about this, but it just works for me. Unlike most of my picks, this one leaves a rather glossy finish. Hence I wouldn’t recommend to use this underneath a product, but it’s great on its own when you just want to nourish your lips. Nothing fancy about it, as it does just that. I love the little tube, it looks very old school and it’s really easy to just tuck into your bag. They’ve got fruit flavoured ones as well, if you fancy that.
What are your go-to lip balms? | 2019-04-21T01:10:30 | https://www.9outoften.com/2014/02/read-my-lips.html |

There was a paradox that aroused my curiosity and amazement on life. There is a scripture in the Bible that talks about how with more knowledge comes more sorrow. It presented itself as truth in my life when I was emotionally, mentally, and spiritually adopted by a family. As a result, I was able to gain knowledge on what it feels like to be loved and cared for. But on the other hand, I realized how much I missed out on love and care for the past 18 years of my life since my parents divorced. I became curious and amazed by how something can bring you so much joy, but causes you just as much pain. Being with that family, to this day, is my greatest joy ever, but the thought of not having them my whole life has caused me so much pain which amazes me and stirs up my curiosity. | 2019-04-25T10:57:13 | https://www.curiosityandwonder.org/paradox.html |
Presumably/hopefully this will be a formality.
Shove that up your jumper!
Arsenal fans will be furious. Excellent.
Click on one of the links on his wiki page and it's got him playing for the Tigers.
Very happy that we have a centre back squad of Maguire, Evans, Morgan, Soyuncu, Benkovic, Johnson. Compared to last year it's so much stronger as a pool to choose from.
the only place we are light is up top as we've shifted 4 unwanted trikers out this week (rightly so) and not bought one in.
I know we’re not meant to look too much into these vids, but yeah I like that.
Yes, lovely. But can he play?
Washing machines live longer with Caglar.
There are quite a few people online who are suprised we managed to get his signature. He seems to have quite a few admirers across Europe from people 'in the know'.
This probably explains why I know so little about him.
Sounds like a good signing, and rounds off some tidy pre-season business.
But we now have about as many centre backs as central midfield! Hopefully they’ll be some foreign suitors for Benalouane, and we find a Championship loan move for Johnson.
Let Morgan have this season and then bow out. Although it wouldn’t surprise me if we give him a new three year contract. | 2019-04-21T00:21:28 | https://talkingballs.uk/threads/%C3%87a%C4%9Flar-s%C3%B6y%C3%BCnc%C3%BC.39466/ |
