Better than a run around the neighborhood! 4000+ foot gain to a summit with a view.
Sitting at the entrance to the Snoqualmie Valley, Mt. Teneriffe is a popular destination for Seattle-based hikers. Its 4000-foot vertical relief above I-90 make it a good day of exercise. Plus, the trail is pleasant and the summit offers sweeping views of Rainier, the Snoqualmie Valley, and Olympics. In the winter, the hike becomes a nice snowshoe, with the mostly-timbered approach making avalanche danger a near-non-issue.
So when on the third weekend of January my friends Gabriel and Lindsay were planning on hiking to the top of Teneriffe, I happily set aside my plans to go on a long jog and write an exam and threw my spikes and pack into my car and drove down to Seattle to meet them. It was a nice day of moderate exercise, good conversation, and pleasant muted views. We decided to do a loop trip, ascending via the Teneriffe Falls trail, traversing over towards Mt. Si, and descending back to the car via the Mt. Si Trail. Due to the uncharacteristically meager amount of snow in January 2018, snowshoes were not needed, but spikes were handy.
The following page gives a short trip report for the day.
Don't always believe the GPS stats. This is why my GPS said it was a 19-mile day (rather than the actual 11.5 miles). Or perhaps we were weaving in and out of the trees like madpeople!
The well-signed and well-groomed Mt. Teneriffe trail.
A rare sighting of a leaf man. We almost stepped on him.
The steeper trail to the summit after Teneriffe Falls.
The trail above Teneriffe Falls was marked by fairly-recent gouges in the trees. These giant gouges seem like unnecessary harm to the beautiful trees. The trail is so well-defined and takes a pretty obvious path straight up the ridge.
Another giant unsightly gouge on an innocent tree.
We encountered a dusting of snow around 4,000 feet.
Spikes were useful by around 4,400 feet (400 feet below the summit). Due to the uncharacteristically meager winter snowpack, we never needed snowshoes.
The views across the Snoqualmie Valley opening up as we neared the summit.
The summit of Teneriffe. Easy way is on a slope to the left.
View south across the summit. Lindsay and Gabriel on top. There were a few other parties up there as well.
View north across the summit.
The view out towards Mt. Si. I-90 is below and the Olympics are in the distance past Seattle.
We decided to do a loop and descended via the trail towards Mt. Si. This trail (which follows a well-defined ridge) was marked by more unnecessary unsightly gouges on the trees as well. I think this photo is evidence that whoever made these gouges was more into the act of making gouges than of marking the trail.
Part of the trail between Teneriffe and Si follows an old logging road.
A sign located at the "You are Here". We considered tagging the summit of Mt. Si. We had enough time to do so and still get out before dark, but we were all rather indifferent, so we headed down. After all, if I move to Colorado next year, I have to leave some unclimbed summits in Washington to come back to.
Hiking through the low cloud layer as we descended to the valley floor. Because of the fog, I thought that this was one of the most beautiful segments of the day.
Spider webs are a work of art. To me, evidence that nature did not just create itself.

West Ham manager Slaven Bilic felt a sense of "relief" after Diafra Sakho's late goal secured victory over Swansea and eased the pressure on him.
The atmosphere at London Stadium had been tense with fans unhappy about the performance of Bilic's side for the majority of the game.
But Sakho eased some of the scrutiny on Bilic when he got on the end of fellow substitute Arthur Masuaku's cross in the 90th minute and stabbed the ball home from close range.
"It is a relief, a great three points for us," Bilic said. "I know it is shallow when the manager says there is pressure, but that makes a difference.
"To keep the support of the crowd we need to keep producing minute after minute and we did not do that in the first half. The guys on the bench lifted the team and crowd."
Swansea were positive with their approach but a long-range effort from Wilfried Bony, parried by Joe Hart, in the first half was the best they had to show for their endeavour.
Home fans chanted "sacked in the morning" at Bilic when his side trailed 3-0 in a 3-2 defeat by Tottenham last weekend.
For the most of this contest there was little respite for the Croat as his side laboured against a disciplined and organised Swansea side.
Indeed there were jeers and boos for Bilic's double substitution when Masuaku and Sakho were introduced for Javier Hernandez and Andre Ayew.
Ultimately, the 49-year-old's decision to throw on both players made the difference, though, as Masuaku's superb run and cross found Sakho's perfectly timed run.
With West Ham's next three matches against Burnley, Brighton and Crystal Palace, Bilic will hope the confidence from this victory can spur his side on to greater things.
Swansea managed just 10 shots on target before this encounter, which head coach Paul Clement blamed on a hectic end to the transfer window.
Their play was largely tidy and they used the ball intelligently, with Renato Sanches in particular catching the eye for the visitors.
However, there was a stark lack of cutting edge to Swansea's play. Despite the presence of Tammy Abraham, Jordan Ayew and Bony - for the first half at least - they managed just one shot on target in the entire contest.
"A combination of the delivery and the movement need to be better in the final third," Clement said. "We are closer to getting the balance right, but there is still work to be done."
Swansea's first away defeat sent them into the bottom three and, unless Clement gives them more bite in attack, another relegation battle beckons this season.
The powerful striker's partnership with Javier Hernandez never really clicked but he was a menace to the Swansea backline. Carroll seems to be getting sharper and his all-round workrate was unrelenting. He was unfortunate not to score when he struck the corner of the goal with an improvised shot.
This game produced a total of just 15 shots; only Burnley v Huddersfield on 23 September featured fewer in the top flight this season (13).
West Ham have registered three clean sheets in their last four Premier League games, after managing none in the five before that.
Swansea conceded their first away Premier League goal in 495 minutes of action and suffered their first away defeat of the season.
Four of the 10 Premier League games where winning goals have been scored in the 90th minute or later in 2017 so far have been against Swansea.
Diafra Sakho netted his first Premier League goal since November 2016, when he scored against Manchester United.
Six of West Ham's seven league goals this season have come in the second half, which equates to a league-high 86% proportion.
West Ham goalkeeper Joe Hart: "It was a difficult atmosphere in some ways. I'm never going to criticise the fans, they come here and pay their money and have a right to their opinion.
"We have to focus on the win. We have had seven points since the international break [at the beginning of September].
"It is on all of us to take the pressure off. We don't get sucked into the speculation, we just stick together and fight hard."
Swansea head coach Paul Clement: "I think the result was a little harsh in that I don't think that they weren't better than us as such.
"We just did not defend that last attack very well. They created a really good scoring chance, which is what we didn't do.
"We did not stop the cross coming in, did not defend it in the box and if you concede that late you do not give yourself much chance."
West Ham manager Slaven Bilic: ""We did not play well in the first half after a good first 10 minutes, making basic mistakes and Swansea were much better on the ball. We have to play better and we can play better.
"The changes were crucial with Manuel Lanzini, Arthur Masuaku and Diafra Sakho coming on.
"We played a very offensive formation in the first half but lacked the link between the defence and attack and that was why Lanzini made a big impact."
West Ham face a tricky trip to Burnley on Saturday, 14 October (15:00 BST), while Swansea host newly promoted Huddersfield at the Liberty Stadium at the same time on the same day.

Elevation Sales, public cloud products such as Office365 are a highly cost-effective solution. They offer users access to their email from anywhere and on any device, all for a monthly fee.
no longer affect any other business services.
The process of migration always starts with a comprehensive audit to understand how many mailboxes exist in the organisation and what they are for, as well as which devices are currently used to access it.
Often the software on phones or tablets needs to be updated or configured to use Office365, so it was important for us to understand Elevation’s email processes and user preferences.
We then ensured that the synchronisation between the Elevation network and the cloud was in place before scheduling a convenient date and time to switch over to the cloud.
This is always done out of hours to minimise disruption, and our engineers were on site early the next morning to ensure that any teething issues were ironed out swiftly.

Found this Amazing illustration of the aftermath of the battle of Borodino. A Costly French victory over the Russian army.
The Battle of Borodino (Russian: ??????????? ?????, Borodinskaya bitva; French: Bataille de la Moskowa), fought on September 7, 1812, was the largest and bloodiest single-day action of the French invasion of Russia, involving more than 250,000 troops and resulting in at least 70,000 casualties. The French Grande Armée under Emperor Napoleon I attacked the Imperial Russian Army of General Mikhail Kutuzov near the village of Borodino, west of the town of Mozhaysk, and eventually captured the main positions on the battlefield, but failed to destroy the Russian army. About a third of Napoleon’s soldiers were killed or wounded; Russian losses, while heavier, could be replaced due to Russia’s large population, since Napoleon’s campaign took place on Russian soil.

There are many defining moments in a child’s life. Some we can’t even remember, being born for example, when we first learn to walk, talk, eat without spitting up. Others are very memorable, our first day or school, our drivers test, that time in college when we realize we actually haven’t learned how to eat without spitting up. These are defining moments for anyone in any generation, but for those of us who belong to “The X-Gen”, “The Facebook Generation”, or whatever you might call it, we all share a common bond, one common experience which took us from bright-eyed, hopeful child, to bitter, sarcastic adult. I’m talking about our eleventh birthday, when we did not receive a letter to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
I remember the day vividly, and so do many of my friends. We all describe ourselves as being legitimately crestfallen when we realized that no letter was coming in the mail. And while a small percentage of us resorted to the hope that perhaps we were simply muggles in the midst of a hidden wizarding world, most of us came to the sobering conclusion that Hogwarts, and Diagon Alley, and Hippogriffs, and Whomping Willows, just didn’t exist.
As I said before, this was hard to swallow for me, and many others of my generation. Reading J.K. Rowling’s stories, we received a glimpse of a life that was full of excitement and adventure, a life with the promise of wands and trolls and ghosts and potions, a life where people who once thought of themselves as ordinary discovered that they were actually destined for extraordinary things.
This is why we love stories that involve magic. Magic has a certain alluring charm to it, a certain breathless wonder to it because it has the potential to carry us beyond our human capabilities. We were all disappointed not to find an owl with a letter on our window sill because deep down there is a part of each of us that desires to live Harry Potter’s large than life life!
These songs are dealing with some ISSUES, issues that are larger than life. And if it’s all true, if God really is this good and is able to do this many things and transform my life in this way, if it’s all true, then it’s like magic.
But there was one problem, as I much as I have dreamed and searched and hoped and prayed, magic is not real. I’m never getting a letter from Hogwarts, no matter how hard I try. And regardless, God can’t be magic. Prayer doesn’t work like a wand does, you don’t just say the right incantation, wave your Bible, and out pops a car. Magic works that way, God doesn’t.
So there was only one conclusion I could arrive at. God is like magic, but better, because he’s real. God offers us something better.
Call me young, naïve, idealistic, whatever, but I actually believe that the life that God offers and calls us to is a story that could compete with that of Harry Potter. God calls each and every one of us to a life of excitement and adventure, a life with the promise of wands and trolls and ghosts and potions(just accept the metaphor please J) a life where people who once thought of themselves as ordinary discovered that they were actually destined for extraordinary things. It’s like magic, but better.

A generations-old kitchen task becomes a meditation.
My mother taught me, at the age before memory, how to wash the rice. I would stand at her elbow, as she had stood at her mother’s, watching an ivory arc of grains cataract into the pot. She would cover the rice with cold water, and I loved watching the water bloom with starch as the grains swished through her fingers. She’d pour off the cloudy water, refill, and repeat, until it ran mostly clear.
My mother is sansei, third-generation, born to nisei parents during World War II. They did not teach her Japanese; they passed down food customs instead. Mom married my father, a Kansas man, and learned to cook pot roasts and potatoes. But every day we had rice.
Gohan, the Japanese word for cooked rice, is also the word for “meal.” It is not a side dish. In Japan, it is the centerpiece, three times a day. It has rules: Never pour soy sauce on rice (that’s insulting). Never leave chopsticks protruding from it (a funeral rite). And finish every grain (unless you want seconds).
Like most Asians I know, I cannot cook rice without a rice cooker. My , the Cadillac, has 10 settings and a timer, and it plays a little tune when the rice is starting and another song when it’s done. Nothing but rice and water go in it. Ever. Once, in my twenties, a boyfriend threatened its sanctity with a bouillon cube. “This is not going to work,” I thought, about the relationship and the rice. Luckily, my future husband learned, and never did it again.
When I was little and sick, my mother would feed me “tea on rice.” A peasant dish, O-chazuke rejuvenates cold, stale rice by drowning it in hot green tea. The warmth and clean flavor settle the stomach, especially when served with tsukemono, a variety of Japanese pickles. My favorite is beni-shoga, a salty pickled ginger colored with red shiso leaves (perilla). I still crave this when I’m sick.
For mom, washing rice is an ordinary task, but for me it’s a meditation. It reminds me of touching wet sand at the beach, in the shallows, between waves. The sound is soothing. The process, spare. Cleansed of polishing agent, the grains swell and shine, like tiny seed pearls. Cooked, the flavor is cleaner, the fragrance sweeter. Fluffed and steaming in a bowl, the result is sacred and beautiful.
Measure 3 cups Japanese short-grain white rice (Nishiki is my favorite) into the pot of a large rice cooker. Cover with several inches of cold water, and agitate the grains until the water is opaque. Pour out the cloudy water; repeat until water runs mostly clear (3 to 4 times). Add water to level indicated in rice pot (or use the old-fashioned method, placing the tip of your thumb on top of the rice, then adding water to the first knuckle). Cook according to manufacturer’s instructions.
In a teapot with a removable strainer, measure 1 teaspoon of loose sen-cha for each cup of water. Fill a kettle with filtered or distilled water, bring to a boil, and let stand 60 seconds. (Boiling water can scald the tea.) Steep for 90 seconds (the longer you steep, the more bitter the tea). Remove strainer. Fill a bowl half-full with steamed rice, and fill the rest of the bowl with tea. Eat with a spoon, like soup, and serve with a variety of tsukemono (pickles) for a punch of flavor. For a slightly more substantial meal, add a slice of chicken breast or leftover fish, topped with a splash of soy sauce.
For some reason, it’s hard to cook less than 3 cups of rice with good results. Most rice cookers made in Japan are sold with a Japanese-sized measuring cup (about two-thirds to three-fourths the size of a U.S. cup) that corresponds with the markings for water levels etched in the pot.
If you don’t have a rice cooker, you can make the rice on the stovetop in a large saucepan. Start with 2 (U.S.) cups of rice. Bring rinsed rice and 3 (U.S.) cups water to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 12 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 10 minutes.
Quality loose green tea produces best results, and it need not be expensive. I prefer loose-leaf sen-cha from an Asian market (my everyday bag of Ito-en costs less than $5). When traveling, my go-to is Costco’s house brand, Kirkland Signature—contains a bit of powdered matcha for depth.

This is the third installment in our series of articles describing the five remaining Belgian Trappist monasteries that produce their own ales. The monastery of St. Sixtus near the small village of Westvleteren can be found in the southern part of the Belgian region of Flanders close to the border of France. From this tiny Trappist brewery come three of the most distinctive, strong, and flavorful Belgian ales produced today. These wonderful beers are unfortunately hard to find as they can only be purchased from a very amicable monk in a small drive-through booth at the monastery on certain days throughout the year. Some very dedicated cafe owners make the trip down the narrow one lane road that leads to the monastery to purchase these fine beers for resale.
This monastery is found in a very remote area of Belgium near the hop producing town of Poperinge. Across the street from the monastery gates, thirsty visitors can enjoy the rich ales of Westvleteren at the Cafe De Vrede. This cafe exists for the sole reason of entertaining Belgians and beer tourists who travel far and wide to sample these beers. The building, which appears to date from the early 1900's, looks well worn from many days of entertaining beer fans but was almost empty on the cold February afternoon we visited. We didn't mind -- this meant more beer for us! The Cafe also has a small gift shop where visitors can purchase official glasses from the abbey and packs of their beer.
In the Cafe De Vrede, we sampled the Special, Extra, and Abbott. The Special is a complex, spicy ale with an alcohol content of almost 5 percent by weight and 6 percent by volume. All of the beers made at the St. Sixtus abbey are very malty and rich. Almost no hop character is evident, as the hops are masked by the intense malt presence. The fermentation that occurs in the bottles of these beers produces a rich, tall, creamy head when poured.
The Extra comes in at around 6 percent alcohol by weight and almost 8 percent by volume. The most evident characteristic of this ale is the fruitiness of the esters produced by the maturation of the special yeast. A beer fan with any imagination can detect citrus, berries, and other fruit aromas. The Extra also features a slight, warm alcohol presence.
A huge following has developed over the years for the Abbott brew which boasts a mighty 8.8 percent alcohol by weight and 11 percent by volume. Of all the Belgian ales we've had to privilege to sample, this definitely ranks as one of our favorites. It is a rich mouthful with a delicious body. A famous quote from an old Trappist brewer went something like this, "In Heaven there's no beer. That's why we drink it here." Westvleteren Abbott ale is like heaven on Earth.
In the 1940's the abbey gave permission for its monastic name to be used by a small brewery nearby. The beers from this secular brewery were known simply as St. Sixtus and the brewery itself as St. Bernardus. In recent years this agreement has ended, but the St. Bernardus brewery is still cranking out beers that are similar to those of Westvleteren, but not nearly identical. The St. Sixtus abbey and St. Bernardus brewery use different strains of yeast, and as a result their beers have differing flavor profiles. St. Bernardus' St. Sixtus ale is available in some areas of the southeastern United States and is a hearty, chocolately beer with complex flavors and aromas reminiscent of bananas, caramel, and spice.
The St. Sixtus monastery is a beautiful stone building surrounded by trees and a large stone wall that stands between the abbey and the tiny road. It was a cold, misty day that we visited. There was a peaceful calmness in the air. The wonderful beer at the Cafe did much to warm our bodies, hearts, and souls.

my church journey: be myself? or a nice Christian girl?
The thing is, when I do things by being "myself" - I'm instantly under this condemnation of "not being Christian enough."
I'll be honest here. I am scared of "myself" when it comes right down to it.
G said the other day that she hardly recognized me when I got up and did that presentation at that meeting. She said the quiet, polite Norma disappeared, and suddenly there was a self-confident, professional, knowledgeable woman, able to field and answer questions, with a clear, confident voice. She said she was so impressed.
The thing is - that's where I like to be. That's where I'm comfortable.
But I'm terrified of what people will think of me. I'm terrified of being seen as pushy and overbearing (I was astonished to hear "self-confident, professional ... impressed"). I'm terrified of overstepping the bounds of a "nice Christian girl who knows her bounds."
I want to step out and be myself. All my life I've wondered how God (yes, You, Lord) could make me like I am, when apparently what I am "naturally" is all "wrong" (evil!) for a Christian woman - wife, teacher, "leader" (oops ... oh, evil L word).
Is it "wrong" for me to give up my dreams? (Or to just "turn them over to You, surrender them, give them up to You..."). (Or is it that I am actually "giving up on them" - thinking that they were "all about me" and "selfish" - and probably "undeserving" maybe - and yes, "evil," all along?).
I really am confused. What if Your really don't want me to be a "good, nice little Christian girl"?? What if You really did make me with this "abrasive" personality? What if my beloved-by-everybody-and-worshiped-by-me mom (and Grandpa) were doing the same thing? What if "keeping the peace" isn't all it's cut out to be?
I'm tired of being "pushed around" by the "Pastor." I'm tired of being "just a woman, working in the kitchen" - supposedly not able to do anything "brave" - and certainly not anything "spiritual" - which is the feeling I get. So am I just be "selfish" again? And "unsubmissive"? R is happy "in the kitchen." I enjoy it there to a degree - but I surely don't feel it is my "calling."
I'm tired of "being Christian."
But longing to follow You. Really follow You.

YOUR WEB SITE IS COSTING YOU MONEY. IT'S ALSO FILLED WITH SIMPLE MISTAKES THAT TURN OFF VISITORS BEFORE THEY HAVE A CHANCE TO BECOME CUSTOMERS. According to marketing guru Seth Godin, a web site visitor is a lot like a monkey looking for one thing: a banana. If that banana isn't easy to see and easy to get, your visitor is gone with a quick click on the "Back" button. In this supremely practical, cut-to-the-chase book, Godin identifies what it takes to create web sites that satisfy visitors and keep them coming back for more. And he's at his prickly stickler best using real-life examples to illustrate the essential truths and ridiculous fictions about how a web site should work. Packed with his inimitable wisdom and compelling hands-on applications, The Big Red Fez is a must-have tool for anyone working on the web.

Hair loss has been a major concern for both genders in recent times. However, very few people actually know about the causes which include stress. Stress sometimes induces hair loss which is sometimes irreversible. There are various treatments which can treat and disguise hairloss.
Stress can lead to Telogen Effluvium which is a medical condition leading to hair loss. Telogen effluvium is often responsible for large portions of hair loss, where the hair typically falls out in ‘handfuls’. Up to 70% of scalp hair can be lost through this condition. Telogen effluvium doesn’t actually cause hair loss, instead it causes the hair to stop growing.
Stress can also lead to a condition called Alopecia Areata. This causes white blood cells to attack the hair follicles in the scalp, leading to very instantaneous hair loss. Hair often falls out in patches, but total hair loss can affect the whole scalp in the space of a few weeks. In very extreme cases, alopecia areata can also affect body hair – causing it to fall out as well.
After hair has fallen out due to stress, it often grows back. However, in some instances it does not and treatment can be required. We can advise on multiple solutions to help prevent, slow down or disguise hair loss caused from stress.
We do advise that a visit tho your doctor is recommended to check for other related symptoms.

Nuance Communications has announced that IP Australia will become the first organisation across the Asia Pacific region to add next generation automated machine learning and human-assisted artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to its widely successful Alex online virtual assistant.
Alex, based upon Nuance’s Nina Virtual Assistant platform, provides AI-powered customer service on the IP Australia web site, engaging with citizens in human-like virtual chats. Launched in August 2016, Alex is achieving 80 per cent first contact resolution through powerful conversational AI and question-answer capabilities.
The latest in machine learning enables the virtual assistant to learn from ingested organisational content and human agent’s responses, enabling Alex to independently handle increasingly complex enquiries over time. This is what Nuance calls the human assisted virtual agent, the latest in supervised AI technology.
Currently, IP Australia’s online virtual assistant powered by Nuance’s Nina technology delivers a dynamic and engaging customer experience that lets customers easily understand trademark, patent, designs and plant breeder’s rights processes. The human elements of dialogue and personalised interaction connect customers to the right information and tools, which translates into immediate, easy and effective self-servicing and increased customer satisfaction. At present, Alex is capable of answering IP rights questions in layman’s terms, minimising customer confusion and maximising successful first-time transactions.
Robert Schwarz, managing director, Nuance, Australia and New Zealand, added: “Successful virtual assistants need to be able to continually evolve to have meaningful conversations with customers. Supervised AI enables Nina to learn from the very best customer service experts, ensuring Nina is ready to serve customers effectively and efficiently,” said Robert Schwarz, managing director, Nuance, Australia and New Zealand.

A driver doesn’t have to cause injury to someone to be liable in a civil suit. Property damage is another major reason why a suit is filed. It can be very expensive to replace property. Some accidents can even make an entire home unlivable until they’re repaired. When alcohol is added to the mix, the damage can be even greater.
One man is going to have to pay for a lot of damage. The man, who was arrested for drunk driving, crossed over three lanes of traffic, then hit a curb, a fire hydrant, and a fence before plowing into an apartment building. The accident happened just after 11 PM at Village Fair Drive near I-35. Fortunately for this driver, the occupant in the apartment was uninjured.
Enough damage was sustained by the vehicle that rescuers had to cut the man out of the car. He was taken to the hospital for examination then charged.
Who is going to pay for all this damage? Certainly, this will be something that the property owners will examine with their lawyers. If they feel they could get the money from this man, there’s a good chance this guy will see both criminal and civil charges.
If you have had property damaged by a driver, call our offices for a free no-obligation consultation. Sometimes insurance doesn’t cover enough, and you shouldn’t be stuck with the costs if it wasn’t your fault. Call today.

Lesion is a word used to refer to any variation of normal skin. It is derived from the Latin laedere – to injure. Common lesions include warts, moles, and cysts. The word should not convey that the finding is benign or malignant.

I’m Gail. I’ve been a graphic designer for over 20 years and up to now I’ve worked predominantly in pedestrian signage systems, exhibition and information design projects.
These projects have mostly involved the ordering and arrangement of words (typography) and mapping systems on physical products to help orientate and direct people around cities and spaces.
But at the Co-op in the digital team I’m developing typographic guidance for designers and helping them create clear typographic hierarchies without using lots of different sizes and weights (which creates visual noise and makes things harder to read and understand).
In past projects this is what I’ve done in the context of displaying information on physical products in physical environments. Now I’m applying it to information on-screen.
Why am I now working in digital?
Just over 2 years ago I moved from London to Manchester with my partner and daughter. After looking at the design industry in Manchester, I wondered where I fitted into this young, predominantly male, techie and advertising-led industry in which I had few established professional relationships.
I came across the Ladies that UX group. The first meet-up I went to happened to be at the Co-op in Angel Square. A number of women from the digital team at the Co-op were speaking about their roles and how they had come to be there.
The panel were really encouraging about trying new things career-wise and taking a chance. Ben Terrett was also there and described the principles behind the development of Co-op digital products and services.
There were lots of parallels with my approach and ethos. At the end of the event, feeling pretty nervous, I approached Andrew Travers to talk to him about what I’d been doing.
I started by looking at how typography is being used across various products and services and using this information to develop specific typographic guidance for the use of Co-op’s new typeface, Avenir Next. The size, position, colour, juxtaposition, vertical and horizontal spacing of type has a very practical job to do as well as fundamentally conveying the character of Co-op.
For the team that work on our brand I’ve been developing ways of sharing information and best practice for using type, imagery and colour across digital and non-digital applications.
I’ve also had the opportunity to work on the Wills digital service.
I spend a lot of my time moving bits of type up and down so that they look good as well as make sense as content (familiar ground) and wrestling with things like ‘the fold’, ‘screen real estate’ and CSS modules (unfamiliar ground).
I like the fact that the Digital team at the Co-op is actively encouraging women to work with them and offers flexibility around work and family commitments.
There’s been an open and positive reaction to me bringing my non-digital experience into the digital team. It’s seen as being an advantage.
Last week we began a series of Service Design workshops with our Food business.
We’re working on a two week discovery phase by the end of which we’ll pick three projects to take in Alpha.
The project is being led by myself and Jo Whitfield the Finance Director in Food. We’re working with UsTwo as our service design partner. Importantly, as the unit of delivery is the team, our team is made up of CoopDigital, Food and UsTwo.
The team have visited stores, spoken to our colleagues, spent some time in a depot and with our call centre. We’ve been out talking to customers and members.
There’s lots to cover so we’ve been sketching user journeys with colleagues from every part of the business. We’re looking for clear user needs that will make things easier for members, customers or colleagues.
As we believe in working in the open, we’ll blog about our progress on this blog.
At our AGM on Saturday, Richard shared with members the changes to Co-op Membership that will happen from Autumn this year.
As a member, everytime you buy Co-op branded products and services and use your card, you’ll get 5% back on what you’ve spent – from a loaf of bread to a funeral plan. You can then use that 5% anytime that you want to – against your next purchase or save it up for as long as you like.
As well as the 5% for you, 1% of the value of the Co-op branded products will also go to local causes that you help to choose.
As Ben said yesterday the simplicity of our new logo design is really going to make Co-op products and services stand out, so as a member you can see the items where you’ll get something for you and something for your community.
It’s important that our colleagues and Members’ Council can easily explain membership (we know we’ve made it hard for them in the past) and we also want them to be able to feedback on the experience. This is why over the summer they’ll have access to new Co-op membership first, followed in the Autumn by the rest of our members.
But we aren’t going to stop there. We’ll keep looking at ways to make being a Co-op member even better. And, like Mike said on Saturday we’re committed to radical transparency so we’ll be sharing our progress here on the blog. As a start, in the next few weeks we’ll share the work we’ve done so far looking at how we can create new ways to give members a voice in their Co-op.

With Apple’s September event getting closer, curiosity and rumors surrounding the next iPhone is arguably becoming more and more intense. The most recent rumor, as reported by Gotta Be Mobile, states that the iPhone 5 will not be supporting NFC (Near Field Communication), a technology which enables smartphones to interact with surrounding devices through the utilization of a special electromagnetic chip.
As have been pointed out by various different news media, the equipment of NFC is considered major step towards making the payment process more convenient for smartphone users. Purchases for different products could supposedly be conducted through swiping one’s mobile phone towards various different payment devices. If widely adopted, this would save consumers the hassle of having to reach through their wallets or to sort through a variety of credit cards in order to make a proper payment.
A recent evidence for the no-NFC theory comes from a set of leaked pictures revealing the iPhone’s internal structures and pieces. According to Anandtech’s analysis of the picture, the large metal casing present in the photographs, along with the presence of the RF glass windows, precludes the possibility of NFC from being included Apple’s new handset. It is reported that there just wouldn’t be enough space to fit an NFC chip into the device.
Given Apple’s previous announcement of the much anticipated Passbook feature, the lack of NFC feature is certain disappoint those expecting major iPhone upgrades. Given how many are already speculating on how iPhone prices will increase following the recent victory over Samsung, it is not unreasonable to assume that consumers may eventually begin contemplating about switching to different smartphone choices.

Have you ever heard the adage, “If you bought it, a truck brought it”? That’s never been more true than right now. According to Wikipedia, over 80 percent of all communities in the U.S. rely exclusively on trucks to bring all of their clothing, food, fuel, medicine, and other consumer goods. In May of 2013, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics estimated that the trucking industry alone carried more than 60% of the roughly $98 billion worth of freight transported between the United States, Canada, and Mexico. When it comes to bulk freight transportation, no other mode of transportation even comes close!
If you are contemplating becoming a professional truck driver, you have chosen the right career field. In fact, with the shortage of truckers at an all-time low, and the trucking industry job market continuing to grow at a steady pace, there’s never been a better time to pursue a career in truck driving than right now. The U.S. Bureau of Labor statistics has reported that the employment of heavy and tractor trailer truck drivers is expected to grow by 11 percent from 2012 to 2022, with over 1.5 million trucking jobs as of 2013. The median salary for a professional truck driver was $40,940 per year and $19.68 per hour. As the weak U.S. economy continues to strengthen, the demand for goods, and those who transport those goods, will continue to grow.
So, how exactly do you become part of the driving force behind this ever important multi-billion dollar industry? Simple. All you need is a commercial drivers license (CDL), adequate physical health, and the ability to operate a commercial motor vehicle. How do I go about obtaining my CDL, you may ask. Well, that’s where things start to get interesting. You essentially have two options. You can go through company sponsored training, in which a truck driving company sends you to a truck driving school of their choice and pays for your cdl training. You will have to pay back the school loan by working for the company who sponsored your schooling once you graduate. That’s right. There’s no such thing as a free lunch and the trucking industry is no exception. Your second option is to attend a private truck driving school and pay for the schooling yourself. This is the option that most people choose because you can choose exactly which school you would like to attend and, after you graduate, you will have the freedom to work for any company that hires inexperienced truck drivers. Be advised though, private truck driving schools will require you to pay the full tuition up front. Most truck driving students pay their tuition through school loans, grants, and other forms of financial aid.
Let’s say you choose option two. Your next question will most likely be, how do I go about choosing the truck driving school that is best for me? Good question. Here are some suggestions. First, decide if you will be attending school full-time, or part-time while you work. Ideally, you would want to attend school full-time so you could put all of your time and energy into your schooling. Next, decide if you want to attend a school that is local or attend a school where you will have to live away from home. Obviously, the latter will be more expensive, since you will have to pay for your own living expenses until you graduate.
Once you have narrowed your list down to a few schools, do some research and call the schools you are contemplating on attending. There are a few questions you may want to ask. How long is their truck driver training program? Is it only a few weeks or is it a few months? Do your best to avoid “CDL mills” that promise to have you certified in “two short weeks”. Ask them what their average class size is. If possible, you want to choose a truck driving school with smaller classes, say, around ten to fifteen students per class. That way, you are more likely to have all your questions answered and the instructors will be able to devote more time to each student. How do they train their students during the hands-on portion of the program. Is it one-on-one training, or two, three, or four students in the truck cab at a time? How old or new are the school’s trucks? Dirty used trucks are one thing but, old and outdated trucks are not what you want to be training on. Do the trucks have standard or automatic transmissions? You may also want to see if the school has a job placement program that aids their graduates in finding a good trucking job. Is the school accredited by the Better Business Bureau or certified by the Professional Truck Driving Institute? Write down as many questions as you can so that you will be fully equipped when you call the school. Keep in mind that most truck driving schools have two objectives. Their first objective is to give you the information and training you need to pass the CDL knowledge and skills tests, and their second objective is to teach you how to operate a commercial motor vehicle in a safe, competent, and responsible manner.
Hopefully, this information will help you get one step closer to achieving your goal of becoming a successful truck driver. Remember, the journey on the road to a successful and fulfilling truck driving career is traveled one mile at a time!

Haitian earthquake survivors take a break and play soccer at a park that is now a refugee camp in Haiti's capital.
Port-au-Prince, Haiti (CNN) -- Haiti's capital seemed to spring back to life Wednesday, more than a week after a 7.0-magnitude earthquake flattened many parts of the city and killed tens of thousands.
Electrical power was still out most places, but traffic lights were functioning and chaotic traffic clogged many streets. Aid trucks, some guarded by blue-helmeted United Nations peacekeepers, were seen leaving the airport. Water trucks also were spotted in parts of Port-au-Prince.
"There's energy in the air," said Haitian-born J.B. Diederich, who lives in Miami but returned to Haiti for a few days after the earthquake.
More U.N. convoys were seen moving through the city than in previous days, and so could vehicles for large nongovernmental organizations.
Haitian police seemed to take a more active role, directing traffic and getting out of their vehicles to deal with some problem or other. For several days after the earthquake, heavily armed police officers were often seen speeding by in their trucks but did not seem to stop or do much.
There also seemed to be more street vendors Wednesday.
Some banks and wire-transfer companies plan to open Thursday, as do some stores, Diederich said.
To be certain, Port-au-Prince still has a ways to go. But on Wednesday, the city seemed ready to leave the tragedy behind.
Any U.S. citizen who wants to leave Haiti on a U.S. military transport aircraft can do so simply by going to the airport and applying for voluntary departure at a State Department office placed on the tarmac.
About 5,000 people have left in the past week, an official said.
The service is available to U.S. citizens or anyone escorting a U.S. citizen who is a minor. Although the flights are initially free, the U.S. will try to recoup costs from individual passengers.
The cargo planes would return to the United States empty if they weren't transporting citizens.
A handful of Cuban citizens stood in a line next to the U.S. State Department tent at the airport while about 100 U.S. citizens were processed for a flight Wednesday afternoon.
The Cubans wanted out, too, but there were no waiting planes. There weren't even any indications that a Cuban plane would arrive at all.
"Here everyone resolves their problems, and we don't even have a way to get home," said a woman who did not want to give her name.
None of the three people interviewed by a CNN reporter would give their names. They laughed nervously when first asked and then said it would be too dangerous for them to comment openly.

Not getting a wedding planner was my biggest regret. Nope, second biggest.
Now let’s talk family and friends. Big family. Lots of friends. About 200 people flying in from all over the country. The award goes to Australia. It was the last family gathering for both of our grandmothers. The last one. No one wants to think about it, but it’s real.

SAN MATEO, Calif, May 1, 2018 – Arcadia Data, provider of the first visual analytics and BI software native to big data, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Arcadia Data to its “2018 Big Data 100” list. This annual list recognizes the ingenuity of tech suppliers bringing to market innovative offerings for harnessing the increasingly huge amounts of data generated in today’s digital world, raising the bar for data management and challenging established IT practices.
Businesses are constantly grappling with the exploding volume, speed, and variety of information they produce and utilize on a daily basis to remain competitive. Solution providers are on a never-ending quest to tame this data with innovative tools, technologies, and services that can convert it into meaningful, usable statistics.
In response to this challenge, the CRN editorial team has identified the IT vendors at the forefront of data management, business analytics, and infrastructure technologies and services. The resulting Big Data 100 list is a valuable guide for solution providers seeking out key big data technology suppliers.
Among today’s enterprises there is a growing need for two BI standards — one for the data warehouse and one for the data lake. Traditional BI and analytic discovery tools built for data warehouses have failed when applied to derive value from data lakes. Arcadia Data designed a visual analytics and BI architecture native to big data that allows users to realize value from their data faster than traditional BI architectures.
Arcadia Enterprise delivers on the promise of intelligent data lakes, enabling organizations to create billions of dollars of new value by improving access to analytics and BI for business analysts. With a data-native and AI-driven architecture designed from inception for big data, Arcadia Enterprise enables business users to easily explore data with recommendations that visualize and identify insights, ultimately enabling users to derive value with minimal IT overhead.

Arcadia Data provides the first visual analytics and BI platform native to big data that delivers the scale, performance, and agility business users need to discover and productionize real-time insights. Its flagship product, Arcadia Enterprise, was built from inception to run natively within big data platforms, in the cloud and/or on-premises, to streamline the self-service analytics process on data in Apache Hadoop, Apache Spark, Apache Kafka, and Apache Solr. It enables real-time, high-definition insights in use cases like data lakes, cybersecurity, connected IoT devices, and customer intelligence. Arcadia Enterprise is deployed by some of the world’s leading brands, including Procter & Gamble, Nokia, Royal Bank of Canada, Kaiser Permanente, HPE, and Neustar.

This would have been a disaster for the all-natural history and cultural heritage of New York state. Moon gardens feature white flowers and foliage that will glow in the moonlight and also sweet smelling flowers to please our human senses and which will also attract pollinators like colorful moths and other flying insects. I get incredibly excited about possessing wildlife in the garden and do not mind sharing what is there. Gophers, moles, shrews and other underground burrowers are actually possibly the easiest creatures to discourage from your garden. Mice ate my sweet peas just before they could grow, sheep have just taken the tops off my daffodils in the wild garden in spite of the farmer telling me they never consume daffodils, and the deer will consume almost something!
I was fortunate to have visited Colorado Springs, Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak twice, and each time I was awed by the beauty of this region.

Bedrooms serve many purposes. A mother may rock a small child to sleep in a bedroom. Tired parents can use the bedroom as a retreat from a long day of parenting. The bedroom is the place where a teen aged girl does her homework and dreams of life as she grows up. When decorating a bedroom, the use of light is crucial. Proper window coverings are a must. The right window coverings can help regulate the amount of light that gets inside the space. Better light regulation often means better sleep. When looking at window coverings, many homeowners are pleased to find out they can pick from several varied choices. This may include wooden shutters, blinds and curtains or a combination of all three.
When looking for window coverings, it helps to consider the types of windows in the room. As anyone can see on my website, there are many different kinds of windows. Transom windows are small windows that typically are high up a wall. A window may be composed of a sliding glass door that offers easy access to a private bedroom terrace. Arched windows have an arch to them that provides an elegant shape. A standard window covers about a third of the wall or so and opens out for easy cleaning. Many bedrooms have varying types and window sizes. It’s a good idea to take this into account when buying window coverings for the bedroom. Each window should have a window covering that fits.
Just as windows vary so too do window coverings. Many choices can be found. The right one depends on the person’s personality and style. For example, shutters look good and are easy to use. Shutter also come in many sizes and styles. A set of shutters can be used on the lower windows while curtains are placed on the upper windows. Shutter can also be custom made to fit over a specific window. This is a good choice for area like window nooks that have a shape that might otherwise be hard to fit with standard window covering choices. The shutters can entirely block out light at night and welcome it in during the day.
Any homeowner should think about the bedroom as whole. The ideal bedroom will easily allow for restful sleep and the chance to feel calm and relaxed in the morning when people get up. A series of effective choices can help the homeowner achieve this goal. Each item in the bedroom should have a purpose including the window coverings. The bedroom window coverings should also be easy to move and easy to clean. Consider choices that make it possible to open the windows easily to let in air and close them at night for safety, comfort and security as well as a unified look. Well-chosen window coverings will help make the bedroom just right for all those who sleep there.
Some conventional kinds of eastern gardens, such as Zen gardens , use plants sparsely or not at all. Whilst sitting in our back garden in the evenings watching television, we could not concentrate since of one noisy frog croaking loading behind us.

I like to color-match them to other flowers in my garden so that you see a show of purples, pale lavender, or white flowers. We by no means used it as a carport because it was as well narrow, but it makes a perfect screen porch so that we can enjoy the garden at night in a mosquito totally free atmosphere. They will have 10 times a far better life than the descendants of the 12 Tribes of Israel and they glorify God for feeling so blessed.
Hawaii is renowned for its vast range of plant and flower species which have arrived at the Hawaiian Islands from all more than the world. I hate them and will do anything to get rid of going to attempt the snake poison and the plastic snakes in pool, If this dosent perform Ill be back!!!!!!! The same genus comprises other colorful spider species, which are big-sized and generally located in temperate climatic circumstances. The most essential consideration in any garden design is, how the garden will be employed, followed closely by the preferred stylistic genres, and the way the garden space will connect to the home or other structures in the surrounding locations. The Na ‘Aina Kai Botanical Garden is a correct magical paradise where you can encounter the several moods and diversity of its beauty. They haven’t flowered but, but hopefully soon there’ll be much more butterflies in the garden and much more diverse species.

Admission to Garden and Cafe is $8 per adult, $six for NZ senior citizens and students, youngsters below 12 are free of charge. But for the unwary insect, the sticky net of a garden spider brings certain death. You have got to be careful about this spider because its bite will hurt, but they still have their spot in a biodiverse ecosystem, and they assist us by eating insects like mosquitos. These are the insect species I’ve found or identified in my garden for the very first time this year. The northern acreage of the Garden borders on the exclusive three-tiered Umauma Falls that is a single of the most gorgeous waterfalls on the Huge Island with a 300-foot drop from the crest of the falls. They are a ideal choice for dark or shady corners of the garden since they magically lighten up those locations!
In winter, the bulbs and perennials in the garden are dormant, but that does not imply they are dead. Stunning, informative and excellent lens.I saw a snake in my backyard a handful of days ago, have been pondering of approaches on how to get rid of them… somebody told my that aerating the garden will aid, now seeking for a tool rental to rent an aerator. A trickling fountain or water feature adds a soothing sound to the moon garden whilst providing water for your night and day time guests.

Because the rocks at Garden of the Gods formed as a result of the forces of erosion, they, also, are vulnerable to it. They won’t be there forever.
However if you are someone who wants to preserve your hard earned produce for your self and your family members, then you are going to have to take a handful of measures to humanely protect your garden from the many creatures out there who feel that it is just as rightly theirs as yours. The images I took of the Garden of the Gods have been mostly from the Central Garden Trail. Garden design and style is the creation of plans for the layout and planting of gardens and landscapes. They are nevertheless an completely family members owned and operated organization who take excellent pride in sharing their garden with visitors.
All of these things are terrible options to keeping frogs away (snake repellent does not perform, even on snakes, by the way), and are rather just dumping much more and far more chemicals into the all-natural water program that are bound to hurt considerably more than just the frogs in your yard. But there are several other advantageous garden insects and animals that are not really as cute or as easily recognized as friendly to gardeners. Predatory insects are the useful garden insects seeking out prey to satisfy their voracious appetites. The black and yellow garden spider prefers to spin its web in gardens, meadows, fields, shrubs, among tall grasses and tall plants. Walking into this botanical garden is like walking into a magical, tropical, fairyland of gardens.
Several believers believed this prophecy was speaking about Cain and his offspring, against Eve’ offspring but that is contradictory in nature. White Swamp Spider Lily (Hymenocallis occidentalis) is a perennial bulb that grows in wet places throughout the south. Adult spiders are about 1 cm long, and pale silvery-yellow, identified in every state in Australia. They seem to glow” at dusk, particularly when planting en masse, generating a dreamy and enchanted appear for the garden in the evening. These Paradise Stainless Steel bollard lights are superb solar powered landscape lights for your garden or patio pathway. That’s so interesting that deer do not like human hair- what an easy and humane way to maintain them out of one’s garden. A lot of gardening enthusiasts share the identical story of becoming bitten by black and yellow garden spider. They ultimately believed about it getting a garden fit for the gods, and the name stuck.
Simply because of this, it is usually good to location aggressive specimen in locations that see tiny or no site visitors because they can truly hurt themselves although striking repeatedly at the glass as folks walk by. This is the reason I have placed them as a moderate difficulty, because a snake this aggressive should not be kept by novice herp keepers. They designed vibrant floral patterns in the Garden which utilized new tactics of collecting, hybridizing, and propagating plants. When the black and yellow garden spider senses danger in its way, it drops down in the ground and hides for some time. Praying Mantis are one the greatest solution for folks how don’t want to use dangerous chemicals in their garden to handle insects. They are too aggressive for novice keepers, but can grow to be hand-tame with patience and persistence on each the element of the snake and the handler.
Gorgeous, classic and economical, these lights appear great practically anywhere, and give your garden space a whimsical and Old Planet really feel. Even though suitable fencing or a barking dog will operate to maintain most wilderness creatures out of your garden region, flying creatures can be a various matter all with each other. Let’s all do our element to hold Garden of the Gods park pristine for all the years to come. In this post I showcase some of the diversity of insect life I’ve located in the garden (and the house) this summer season. Principal Terrace – the oldest component of the garden dating from 1853, was planted by Dr. Hildebrand and where the Hillebrands constructed their home.

Liar Liar: Lane Kiffin : True Gipper: "Lane Kiffin" "Ed Orgeron" USC "Brian Kelly"
USC has stayed classy of course like usual and chosen Lane Kiffin to become their next head coach. Kiffin quickly bolted out of knoxville after just one year one the job. He left the university with no problems at all just a couple NCAA violations. So the Tennessee students/fans/alums are more then furious. On Tuesday students gathered around and chanted "F*** you Kiffin", I wouldn't it a riot but it was close has UT students were lighting things on fire like a mattress, mostly paper, and in one video a guy made a torch. Some angry fans even raided Neyland-Thompson Sports Complex and yelled at Lane Kiffin when he was telling his ex-players that he will be very loyal and leave them. I'm sure they were all very proud of him.
Lane Kiffin was introduced as the Head Football Coach at USC on Wednesday. It went just as planned, full of lies. Lane Kiffin actually got into an argument with LA times writer TJ Simmers about how Lane Kiffin said he wouldn't recruit any UT players unless they called him. Turns out his good assistant Ed Orgeron has already called UT commits, that means theres a good possibility that Kiffin did to. After Kiffin started saying things over again he confused everyone when trying to explain the commit situation that SC AD Mike Garret had to stand up, stop Kiffin from being an idiot, and to of course get a new question going. So Kiffin has started out great, couldn't be better. Now going into this conference i knew i was going to at some point just start laughing. I was hoping for some trash talk against ND. Or just him saying "I cant wait to commit some major recruiting violations after we beat Notre Dame next year. Its going to be a blast!!". I'm just glad we have Brian Kelly.
USC sent the wrong message to the NCAA about cleaning up their act. SC did the opposite of cleaning up their act when they hired a guy who has a past of recruiting violations. Kiffins violations have all been secondary violations unless the most recent one about hostesses turns out true and ends up more then just a secondary violation.
At this moment, I cannot wait for ND vs SC next year. No matter what the records are this game will be remembered. It's the classy Brian Kelly vs the most hated college football coach in the country Lane Kiffin. I really wish recruits would start questioning this guy. He has nothing. He is not loyal at all and he is selfish. I hope we destroy him.

AP was founded by four highly experienced individuals who share a common belief that the media industry - broadly defined to include publishing, broadcast & cable, education & training, information content providers, marketing services, advertising, and research, - is undergoing significant disruption.
Based on our substantial experience in investment banking, the media industry, education, and technology, we saw the need for a new specialized investment bank structured to address the problems and opportunities resulting from the current and forecasted disruption.
We realized that companies facing or causing disruption required investment bankers who could provide senior level advisory services, understand the challenges of disruption and who had the commitment and strategic knowledge to assist their clients to capitalize on the disruptions they faced.
We also understood that we had to create a new model that combined consulting, investment banking, and executive perspective.
The final decision to create MAP occurred at a meeting of the four founding partners, Rob Garrett, Mark Holdreith, Jack Hyland and Ralph Linsalata at The Century Association in New York City on July 12, 2010.
Our focus is bringing together the intellectual firepower and implementation skills necessary to assist client companies to optimize future growth through strategic vision and direction, as well as advising on transactions – M&A and capital raising – as warranted.
Our intent is to provide the necessary resources and expertise required to serve the broad strategic needs of each client either ourselves or through the utilization of partner companies and outside experts on as needed basis. We are able to achieve an integrated solution through our management of the process, customer interface and resources.
Media Advisory Partners addresses the needs of companies engaged in disruptive innovation, assisting its clients to navigate the severe disruptions resulting from technology and the concurrent changes in consumer practices and attitudes.
MAP also serves those companies which are change-agents in the media, education, and related markets through technology and business innovation. To this end we focus our experience and expertise and that of our strategic partners to provide "C" level strategic and financial counsel and transaction execution (advising on mergers, acquisitions, fund raising) which support and further clients' objectives in managing within the ever changing business environment.
Determining what innovative new growth models are viable in support of a traditional company's core business leads to better portfolio management and more effective merger and acquisition strategies. And for new companies bringing change to existing markets, understanding the principles of innovative disruption, and development of sustainable new growth business models can accelerate growth and success.
Committed to providing our clients with the best possible advice, the partners established a senior level Advisory Board. Noted experts in each of the Firm's targeted areas, who share the partners' perspectives on disruption, have joined to become advisory directors. In addition to our Advisory Board, a network of strategic partnerships with companies and individuals who are capable of assisting companies to manage disruption is in place.

On today’s episode I chat to Millie Seaward, publicist for Little, Brown, about the art of getting books to readers.
– what kinds of books are easiest to sell?
– what types of books get most reviews?
– what makes a book an ‘event’?
– what’s a blog tour and is it worth it?
– what types of publicity sell the most books?
Or ask at your local bricks and mortar bookshop. They’re great!

So as the title says, certain mission locations in Omni Entertainment can’t be accessed because the buildings they’re in are actually flagged as being in Omni Forest, even though they are not accessible that way. The mission waypoint marker is on a door for the inaccessible reproduction Omni-Ent behind the wall in Omni Forest. If you actually zone into Omni Ent and go to the mission building, you cannot enter. The mission marker does not show and you get the “mission not in this area” message if you upload to map.
Yeah. Don’t pull missions to OE. It seems to be bugged at least 25% of the time for me. Either they are actually in Omni Forest, or the door isn’t a functional door at the mish. Ah well.

This 2004 BMWr1100s can trace its roots back to the beginning of BMW motorcycles–the 1923 boxer twin called the r32. That motorcycle was admired for its speed and excellent handling due to the cylinder placement which keeps the weight very low in the motorcycle. The museum's 1952 BMWr51/3 represents BMW’s first 30 years’ evolution of the boxer motorcycle. Comparing these two motorcycles, you can see another 50 years of development. Amazingly, eighty years after boxer bikes were developed, while evolutionary, they are fundamentally very similar bikes. With its aerodynamic design and lightweight chassis, the high-performance, limited edition, r1100s is modeled after the race bikes that tear up European tracks in the International Boxercup Series.

I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful Mother’s Day celebrating your motherhood, or celebrating the one who bore you.
My mom is my best friend. She’s a wonderful grandmother, and an incredible example of a godly lady. I’m thankful to get to celebrate her everyday, not just one Sunday a year.
And yet here I am, becoming more and more like my own mother with every passing minute.
The difference is that now I celebrate it, because the maturity that comes with motherhood makes me appreciate my mom for everything she is and all that she’s done.
Becoming more and more like my mom is something I love– something I appreciate–something I strive to do.
And like many of you, sometimes I open my mouth to speak and my mom jumps out.
You know what I’m talking about. Those weird mom-isms that sometimes make no sense, but are effective tools for refereeing, disciplining, and explaining life.
You have any of those?
Kid: Mom, I’m not eating this spinach.
Mom: I’m going to spinach your spinach in about five seconds.
I love it. My mom used to use this phrase all the time with us kids, inserting anything and everything that applied to the moment, especially as a threat when we were acting up.
But this phrase, when used in a warning tone, was totally, completely, and wholly effective with the three of us kids. It defies explanation.
And I totally said it the other day to my son.
Yep. Open mouth, out jumps mom.
Share with me: What mom-isms have you inherited from your own mother?
I have taken up something I swore I would never do… First and middle name scolding. Its so silly, but far too easy to do. And of course, as hard as I try to be consistent, occasionally a threat flies out of my mouth that I would have no way of following through with. Like saying, kael archer, if you do that one more time you are going straight to bed…at like 530. Whoops!
Wow! Guess I did sound a bit ridiculous at times, huh? Remember the time I told you and Kimberly you were not allowed to breathe each other’s air??????? I think I had about had it at that point! Ya think? Then there was the time I told y’all you could never swim again- ever!!! I remember hearing from my mom, “You’re gonna be pickin’ up your teeth in the back yard in about 5 seconds!” Sounds a tad violent! Your blog today made me tear up as I began reading, but then I burst into laughter!!! Thank you!
I love you, Mama. 🙂 Thanks for the comment– and the inspiration for this post!
Like Amy, I say first and middle names for my boy ALL the time!
This is a world-wide mom-ism, “Because I said so.” Brogan is at the age where he asks why every other second.
🙂 Thanks for stopping in today, Mel. Hope you are doing well!!
Hello, Jennifer – I saw Katie Ganshert mention your name and how highly she spoke of you, so I thought I’d come on over and check out your blog – this one made me laugh! I have four kiddos, 7 year old girl, 5 year old girl and twin boys who are two years old! I’m always amazed when my mom shows up via my words. I love when I say: “I’ve had it up to here with you!” (Hand positioned somewhere around my forehead). I’m not sure what it means, but I think it’s pretty bad… 🙂 So happy to meet you today!
Four kiddos including twin boys??? Wow. You just earned a hero badge from me. 🙂 Thanks for stopping in!!
You are very blessed to have a great mom! My grandmother, the woman who pretty much raised me, died in 08 and I miss her tremendously.
I say things that my dad said to us all the time! Funny how that happens!
I will definitely use this with my son.
OK — this post cracked me up!!
Not sure I can top that one!
For me it’s not so much what I say — but I do have the “mom” look. I think it’s passed down from generation to generation in my family.
I actually told my 2nd Grade Sunday School class that if I heard they were not good when another parent fills in a few weeks that I would pinch every one of their head’s off.
I’ve done the snap/point thing too, Shan! Funny!
mom used to tell me, “it’s you and me against the world.” now my own daughter says it back to me in her sweet, childlike tone….and i melt. mom also used to say “here we go loop de loo!” in a singsong voice…..and i totally do that getting in the car to go anywhere with maddy. definitely things she passed down to me.
you know, i’ve never ever heard of the expression in your post. blank your blank in five seconds. is that southern or just an expression from your family?
It’s got to be something my mom just made up. I’ve never heard anyone else ever say it before. 🙂 I think other people are probably grateful that it’s contained to my family. lol.

Contemporary Arts Practice (CAP) brings together practitioners and researchers from across the creative spectrum including visual artists, composers, theorists and art psychotherapists. CAP members exhibit, perform and work on collaborative projects internationally. The group meets regularly to share ideas, stimulate debate and when relevant, find areas of common interest from which to build new projects. As part of this, CAP frequently invites practitioners from its international networks who further enrich its conversations. Housed within the School of the Creative Arts, CAP benefits from the input of postgraduate students and more recently, visiting artists from the UH Galleries programme. CAP’s mission is to ensure its community maintains a critical engagement with their subject and environment through exchange and collaboration.
Funding applications form an important strand of the work of CAP and to date group members have been financed by bodies such as the Arts Council England, the British Council, the Leverhulme Trust, the Wellcome Trust, The Australia Council for the Arts, the Canada Council and the EU Culture Fund.

Pictured to the left is the cover of today’s edition of the Istanbul newspaper Sabah. “Siyah Devrim” means “black revolution.” Obviously the Turks are pleased with the election results in the U.S., but what about some other countries?
I decided to search around a little to see how the victory of Barack Obama was being reported to those countries or groups who, let’s just say, may not have had a favorable view of the United States as it existed the day before yesterday. Most of it was so fawning that the U.S. media is probably getting jealous as hell of the foreign press cutting in to dance with their date.
Does it make you feel better that all these guys are thrilled about the outcome of the election? Before answering, remember, a turkey sees lots of smiling faces the day before Thanksgiving too — but even a turkey isn’t dumb enough to feel good about it (unless it lives in Berkeley and subscribes to Sabah or The New York Times).
When a terrorist expresses joy at George W. Bush’s departure, it makes me want to pat him on the back. And by “him” I mean George W. Bush.
Obama’s victory — as the first African-American elected president in U.S. history — is painted by American liberals as a way for the U.S. to finally gain respect in the eyes of other more “socially advanced and progressive” countries in Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
How many leaders of African descent has China had? Japan? Iran? Sweden? Russia? Italy? Germany? Latvia?
And how many of these countries the American left is constantly blowing into the ear of in a desperate attempt to be felt up by a foreigner are places where women are stoned to death for the crime of being raped?

British adventure and environmentalist Lizzie Carr yesterday (18 May 2017) became the first female to solo stand up paddle board the English Channel after a gruelling day on the water.
The 24-mile journey from Dungeness to Boulonge took Lizzie seven hours to complete as she battled wind, rain and teeth-chattering temperatures, dodging traffic in the notoriously busy shipping lane as she went.
In a post on her Instagram page after completing the paddle, Lizzie said: “I DID IT. Today I became the first female in history to solo paddle board across the English Channel – and all in the name of #PlasticPatrol.
Lizzie is no stranger to long journeys by paddle board having last year travelled the entire 400-mile length of England’s waterways – solo and unsupported – on her Red Paddle Co inflatable board, picking up plastic as she went.
During her paddle across the Channel, Lizzie collected water samples for micro plastic analysis and will subsequently be working closely with Plymouth University to analyse the results. The aim is to build on the links between the big pieces of plastic you see every day, and the detrimental impact that comes about as a result such as micro plastics, plus the journey that they take from inland to the ocean.
The work is part of Lizzie’s #PlasticPatrol initiative which has been developed to help combat the global plastic crisis and highlight how 80% of marine debris comes from inland sources. To find out more about #PlasticPatrol or to get involved head to www.plasticpatrol.co.uk/get-involved.
Keep up to date with Lizzie’s adventures and environmental work by following her on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram or by heading to www.lizzieoutside.co.uk.

What Is Organizational Culture, and Why Does It Matter?
Moving from Waterfall to Agile requires an organizational culture transformation in most companies. This chapter delves into the impacts as well as examples of both successful and unsuccessful ways to handle the culture change. First we understand what organizational culture is and how it influences an organization. Then we look through the eyes of three positions in a company to see how Agile changes the way common situations and challenges are addressed.
Before we dive into the specific impacts of Agile, let’s discuss corporate culture. According to Philip Atkinson, corporate culture “is the infrastructure, the glue that binds together people and processes to generate results . . . The culture should become the major force that propels the organization onward” (Atkinson 2012).
How important is the organizational culture in a company’s ability to adopt Agile? Critical. In fact, in the VersionOne annual survey of “The State of Agile Development,” they found that culture change is the primary barrier to further Agile adoption at companies (VersionOne 2013, p. 9).
Why is it so hard to change a culture? An organization’s culture was not built overnight; it is the accumulation of years of interactions and experiences that have formed into a belief system of how work progresses and how decisions are made. To shift the culture, one must create new experiences and reward those who dare to embrace the new and unfamiliar. The organization must be prepared to examine its old practices with a critical eye and try a new way of doing things. When the new experiences are difficult or uncomfortable, it is common to revert to old habits. Driving true culture change, which Agile requires, needs commitment and nurturing from all levels of the organization.

One of the greatest advantages to owning investment real estate is the potential for passive income that does not need to be earned. This is one of the many reasons that investors are attracted to rental properties.
However, the benefits of rental properties go much further than just the rental income. This article will focus on the other benefits associated with rental properties and a few rules that will help you get the most from having rental properties in your investment portfolio.
Cash Flow – This is the primary reason that investors purchase rental or cash flow properties. The tenant makes a monthly lease payment that exceeds the expenses on the property. The remaining money is cash flow for the investor. Many investors accumulate rental units with the intention of using that income to pay their monthly expenses or to provide retirement income. When these rental properties provide them with enough monthly cash flow that they will no longer depend on having a job, they reach a point when their investments become their job.
Appreciation – Historically, properties have increased in value over time. So if you bought a $100,000 property and put $10,000 down as a down payment, you would have a $90,000 mortgage. Let’s say that after five years, the home is worth $150,000. You now have a $50,000 profit for your $10,000 investment. That is a 500% return on your investment over a five-year period and it does not even include the cash flow received during those five years. Even though appreciation rates in many parts of the country have been negative or flat over the last few years, appreciation has still increased over time. This is also not the primary reason why you would purchase a rental property. It is just a nice side benefit of owning rental properties.
Mortgage Reduction – This is where you get to use the power of other people’s money (OPM) in real estate. As your tenant makes monthly payments on the mortgage, the mortgage balance will decrease (assuming you have a fixed, amortized loan). As the mortgage balance decreases, you end up with more equity in the property, all at the expense of your tenant. It is a great thing to have someone else pay your bills. We know many investors whose retirement plan is to buy a couple of rental properties each year, let the tenants pay the mortgage until the loan is paid off, and then sell the home or use the income for retirement. The possibilities are endless.
Depreciation – Depreciation is an accounting term used to let people take a tax benefit for owning rental property. Depreciation is based on the idea that tenants cause “wear and tear” on the property. The depreciation is a way to reduce your taxable income at the end of the year. This will then provide you with more income because of the reduction in taxes you pay.
As you can see, there are a lot of good reasons to own rental property. Many people invest so that their money will grow, so it will provide income, or to take advantage of tax break opportunities. With rental properties, you get the best of all worlds because you can do all three (growth, income, and tax shelter) with the same investment. This is one example of why real estate is unmatched in its ability to provide wealth for investors.

The organisations share data across their respective Stockbook and Portfolio 3Sixty platforms. The former conducts “an Amazon-style search of a large portal of stock”, according to Chris Stott, SalesMaster’s managing director, which comprises new vehicles available for sale, “inbound” models in transit from factories, those in production and used examples.
Paul Bennett, Autofutura’s director of business development, said the latter service analyses “marketing offers and promotions from the manufacturer, the finance company and likely discounts from retailers”.
Customers are informed that they are “in potentially the best position” to replace their vehicle with a similar model and at a similar rate. Bennett also said contracts are typically reset to the original term and, though it cannot be guaranteed, the same deposit would be carried over wherever possible. The software attempts to match the outgoing vehicle as closely as it can, but it also has the capacity to offer equivalents from rival manufacturers when set up to search multiple brands.
“It will automatically match, in a binary fashion, engine size, transmission, specification and fuel consumption – as many elements as possible. We look to have a 100% match, but the client can say ‘Build me opportunities for resolicitation that have a minimum match level of 89%’, for example,” Bennett explained.
Though the companies have historically targeted dealers, manufacturers and their associated finance arms, Stott claimed they had seen “an increase in awareness from the leasing industry”, while Bennett said the service could be adapted to corporate customers.
“There is no reason why a forward-thinking lease company could not adapt the same profile and use of our platform to help them accelerate repurchase. For example, if you’ve been driving a 3 Series for 16 months and there’s 12 months left on the contract, it could be that your leasing company says to the customer ‘Are you cool if we flip this deal and provide you and your driver with the same specification of vehicle – but a new one – and simply extend the term back to the original 24 months?'” Bennett said.
“For a leasing company, we’d probably say ‘How many contracts have you got under management?’ and they’d say ‘We’ve got 100,000 contracts on our book’, so we’d charge a one-time set-up fee of X and a monthly contract-under-management fee of Y,” Bennett concluded.

Artificial intelligence is the next big technological wave, bringing new technologies, businesses and opportunities.
While the big tech corporations are all betting on AI, a number of startups are quietly pushing the AI boundaries AI to create smarter, faster apps and products.
Here’s a list of AI startups that are on track to boom in 2019, according to the people closest to the startup world — the venture capitalists that watch, advise and invest in them.
As part of our comprehensive coverage of the startups that will boom in 2019, we asked the startup experts – venture capitalists – to name the startups they think are are going to be hot this year.
We asked them to tell us about companies within their portfolio as well as ones they haven’t invested in but are hearing good things about.
One group of startups came up over and over again: those that specialize in artificial intelligence tech.
From AI robots to software that uses machine learning to automate tasks, here are Silicon Valley insiders‘ top AI picks, with funding information taken from Pitchbook, the deal-tracking database.
What it does: AppZen uses AI to automatically audit 100% of a company’s expense reports, invoices and contracts in real time.
Why it’s hot in 2019: „Every company has employees who expense things that are out of compliance, out of policy or are just fraudulent. Similarly, every company has suppliers that game the system and push the envelope,“ says Janmohamed.
What it does: Atrium is like the offspring of a law firm and a tech startup. It uses machine learning AI software to deal with ordinary legal documents and has lawyers who work on the complex legal issues.
Relationship to the startup: No relation. Just thinks it’s cool.
Why it’s hot in 2019: „Legal advisory is a huge, huge industry that still operates pretty much the same way it operated two decades ago. Atrium is bringing together all the advancements in AI, workflow automation and collaboration to build a next-gen more scalable law firm,“ says Mandan.
What it does: Farmwise has built an autonomous tractor that uses computer vision to cut weeds without the use of herbicides.
Why it’s hot in 2019: The tractor could help farmers save money and overcome labor shortages. „The autonomous tractor that drives over rows of crops and uses computer vision to determine if what it’s looking at is a plant or a weed. If it’s a weed, it uses scissors to chop it, and if it’s a plant, it doesn’t do anything,“ says Pezeshki.
„With only a seed round raised, they already have multiple tractors operating on farms in California and are generating significant revenue,“ he says.

Having trained two IRS boiler makers in IRATA rope access, IRS then requested that AIRA supply Level 3 site supervision for their rope access based works, for a Pilbara iron ore company shutdown of their Ore Processing Facility.
AIRA was pleased to be able to assist IRS and dispatched a Level 3 supervisor to the Pilbara. As always AIRA's supervisors were not just there to rig ropes, complete SWMS or plan for rescues but to become an integral part of the team in order to facilitate the works in as timely fashion as possible.
IRS were able to complete much more work than previously attempted and completed works in areas that were deemed too difficult by other companies. AIRA's approach to work, safety and planning enabled emergency work, planned work and additional works to completed well within the allowed timeframe as dictated by the client’s planners.
IRS were able to complete all works with the assistance of AIRA with zero incidents, zero injuries and zero dangerous occurrences, maintaining the ethos of both AIRA & IRS.

In case you missed it, Van Halen made an appearance on last night's South Park.
Well, sort of. The animated version of the band — complete with Wolfgang on bass — rocked a fictional world peace celebration in Jerusalem.
Three religious leaders, standing under the symbols of Islam, Judaism and Christianity, announce, "Today begins the new Israel. Today, we are all united as one. ... Now let us celebrate under one symbol!"
Then the three symbols meld into the Van Halen logo — and out come the animated versions of David Lee Roth and Eddie, Wolfgang and Alex Van Halen, who perform "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" to an enthusiastic crowd. The rest is fictional, animated history!

It's real. This is no way confirmed, but it's possible that his leg bicep was originally torn back in 2001 due to steroids.
The leg muscle never developed naturally so was muscular but wasn't fully developed so it tore.
Again, that's only an assumption and should not be taken as genuine legitimate information.
Triple H at the moment is making movies also.
He torn it from a non wrestling related injury.
Paul Levesque's, (HHH), current bicep injury is completely real. It was injured from a NON-WRESTLING RELATED incident. He recently underwent surgery to heal it and current speculation expects his back by the end of this year.
Judging by the fact that I'm the only one with a source........Just sayin'.
real. he is shooting a childrens action movie and tore his bicep in the process.
Its real go to wrestlingnewsworld.com and wwe news and a few pages back therell be a story about triple h getting caught. It just basically said he went to have surgery and wwe.was gonna keep it quiet. But a blue jays player had surgery at the same time and saw him and talked to him. Then he tweeted about it and the secret was out.
I read on Wikipedia that it's real so it must be fake. Lol. He really has an injury. And stop saying Paul Leavesque. You are just trying to sound smart.

If you’re planning to visit Jonesboro, Ark., on Feb. 15, make sure your tape recorder has fresh batteries. The question-and-answer session at the 2006 Arkansas State University Agribusiness Conference could be especially lively.
While many renowned speakers are on the slate, most attention will be on Ken Cook, the founder and head of the Environmental Working Group (EWG).
To the chagrin of many, Cook is well-known to those working in the agriculture policy arena and certainly has the ear of Congress. Since 1985, he’s been involved in the development and advocacy of conservation efforts as part of U.S. commodity programs.
However, he is probably better known — especially among Southern producers — through the controversy and rancor generated by his stances on subsidy payments and EWG’s database on payment recipients.
Despite a potentially cool reception, Cook said he’s keen to visit the Mid-South. “I hope to spend some time on farms in the area. I do that as often as possible. (Last fall), I was in California rice country for three days and had an incredible time.
Cook, who spent summers on his uncles’ Missouri farms growing up, said he will remind farmers about the history of subsidy programs, especially from the late 1980s through the early 1990s. During that period, he said, Congress shifted funds from voluntary conservation programs to commodities.
“The ranks of people interested in reforms are growing. It’s swelled since the budget reconciliation, when farmers took essentially no hit.

Grinnell, Poweshiek County, Iowa. Vehicular Homicide charge dismissed following the completion of exhaustive discovery that ultimately proved that GRL Law's client was not responsible for the accident that resulted in the death of his passenger. It was a long and drawn-out process but the prosecutor took all of the evidence into consideration and concluded that the operating while intoxicated offense that GRL Law's client was also charged with, did not have a causal connection to the accident. The accident was caused by a semi-truck driver was attempting to merge into traffic after illegally stopping on the shoulder of the Interstate. GRL Law's client was sentenced to the minimums for the operating while intoxicated offense that he plead guilty to.

Step 1: Ask yourself what you want in life, both your most important desires as well as your routine desires. Write down the answer below. The list may be long, and it is likely to include very disparate items ranging from peace in the world, to professional success, to a new car every other year, to your oldest daughter being more polite to her grandmother.
Step 2: Rank these desires corresponding to their importance to you. One method is to put numbers on each want, running from "1" (all-importance) to "5" (not very important).
Step 3: Ask yourself whether any really important wants have been left off your list. Good health for yourself and your family? The present and future happiness of your children or spouse? The feeling that you are living an honest life? Remember to include matters that might seem important when looking back on your life at age 70 that might not come to mind now, such as spending plenty of time with your children, or having the reputation as a person who is helpful to others.
Step 4: Look for the conflicts in your list of wants. Check if conflicts are resolved in a manner that contradicts the indications of importance that you accord to the various elements. For example, you may put health for yourself in the top rank and professional success in the second rank, but you may, nevertheless, be working so hard for professional success that you are doing serious harm to your health, with depression as a result.
Step 5: Take steps to resolve the conflicts between higher-order and lower-order values in such manner that higher-order values, requiring you not to be depressed, are put in control. If you recognize that you are working so hard that you are injuring your health and additionally depressing yourself, and that health is more important than the fruits of the extra work, you will be more likely to face up to a decision to work less and to avoid being depressed; a wise general physician may put the matter to you in exactly this fashion.
Adapted from Good Mood: The New Psychology of Overcoming Depression. Simon, Julian L. Open Court Publishing Company: Illinois. 1993.

■ The relatively low cost projection for freezing Medicare physician pay rates will not last, congressional advisers warn. The SGR-mandated cut is estimated at 24.4% for 2014.
Washington Congress’ official Medicare advisers have joined the growing chorus of policy experts who say the program may never again be in as favorable a position to overhaul the formula that helps determine physician pay as it is now.
The annual March report to Congress from the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission renewed a proposed policy, first outlined in October 2011, to repeal the Medicare sustainable growth rate and replace it with a decade of set annual payment updates for physicians. In testimony to the House Ways and Means health subcommittee on March 15, the day the newest report was issued, MedPAC Chair Glenn Hackbarth outlined what is at stake for lawmakers on the Medicare payment issue if they go another year without taking the commission’s advice.
That window is not expected to remain open for long, Hackbarth said. The size of the cuts mandated by the pay formula — and thus the amount of money needed to override them — depend on the relationship between the volume of services provided by doctors and the growth of the nation’s economy. These figures have proven to be very volatile in recent decades, he said, meaning the relatively low-cost repeal price tag might balloon again before long.
If Congress doesn’t act before the end of 2013 on a permanent SGR repeal or another short-term payment patch, physicians can expect their pay rates to decrease by nearly a quarter starting on Jan. 1, 2014.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services wrote to MedPAC on March 5 to inform the commission that the projected 2014 reduction under the SGR is 24.4%. That projected figure could change later in 2013, when CMS issues proposed and final versions of the physician fee schedule.
The American Medical Association said Congress cannot allow such a reduction to take effect, especially after lawmakers failed to reach an agreement on alternative federal deficit reductions to avert the automatic spending reductions through the process known as sequestration. The sequester, which operates outside the SGR, will reduce Medicare physician pay by 2% starting April 1.
Lawmakers are not required to follow MedPAC’s advice and often go their own way when crafting Medicare payment policy.
But the current fiscal situation in the U.S. makes it imperative that Congress closely consider several of the recommendations in the March report, said John Rother. He’s president and CEO of the National Coalition on Health Care, a Washington group whose members include medical societies, consumer organizations, employers and unions.
“With the sequester’s $128 billion in meat-ax provider cuts in place [for the first year] and Congress debating whether to shift billions more onto beneficiaries and states, there is no reason that ‘smart savings’ ideas like that of MedPAC should be left on the shelf for another year,” Rother said.
He singled out the commission’s recommendations on repealing the SGR, overhauling the postacute care system to curb hospital readmissions and paying the same rates for primary care provided in hospital outpatient departments as those paid to physician offices.
The MedPAC recommendations, however, have run into resistance from health professionals who would see lower rates as a result of efforts to generate savings for other areas of the program. Establishing payment parity between doctors’ offices and hospital outpatient departments, for instance, has been opposed strongly by hospital associations, which insist the departments face significantly higher costs in caring for patients.
In addition, the SGR repeal envisioned by MedPAC would avoid the deep reductions scheduled under the payment formula, but it would not mean that all doctors would escape payment cuts.
The pay of primary care physicians would be frozen for a decade while Congress crafted a replacement for the current payment system. Nonprimary care physicians would see annual rate reductions of 5.9% in each of the first three years, followed by a pay freeze for the remainder of the decade. The AMA and organizations representing specialty physicians support SGR repeal but strongly oppose a two-tiered approach that would mean pay cuts for many doctors.
The American Academy of Neurology is among the organizations that have warned against preventing Medicare pay reductions for some physicians while allowing cuts to go through for others. It said patients will find it harder to see needed specialists if the cuts mean fewer doctors accept Medicare patients.

Measure out concentrated liquids without making a mess!
I like to buy car care products in bulk. Their shelf lives are usually years and I know I’m going to use them eventually. The only downside is getting concentrated products from the big container into a smaller, usable container. I always spill some, which defeats the whole purpose of saving money! That was until I got the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner.
This clever device saves you the trouble of trying to measure out concentrated products and pour them into another bottle. The Proportioner does it for you. Simply twist the Proportioner onto a bottle of your favorite product. Twist the black top to raise or lower the green regulator to the desired amount of liquid. Squeeze the bottle and watch the reservoir fill. Measurements in ounces and milliliters are marked on the side of the reservoir. Release the bottle and the liquid will drain down to the amount you selected. Flip the pop-top and pour the precisely measured liquid into another bottle. No dripping, spilling, or waste!
The Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner allows you to measure just the amount of product you'll be using - no waste!
I use the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner on my gallon jug of Pinnacle Liquid Crystal Waterless Wash Concentrate with Carnauba. It allows me to dilute the cleaner precisely for the task at hand, and I don’t drip cleaner on my clothes or hands. It’s a simple idea but it makes buying in bulk a lot more convenient!
The Bottle Proportioner is available in two different sizes: gallon or quart. The Gallon Pro Blend has a 38 mm cap with a 12” tube. The Quart Pro Blend has a 28 mm cap with a 9 ½” tube. The tubes can be cut to size if necessary. Both fill cups hold up to 3 ounces.
If diluting products has got you all wet, get the Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner. It makes the process of measuring out concentrates neat and easy so the only one covered in car care products is your car!
Note:The Bottle Proportioner is intended for low viscocity (thin) liquids.
I got this to use with the McKee's rinseless wash. It works well, the idea is great, but there's no gasket at all. So you have to tighten it really hard otherwise when you pour it over to dump out the liquid it will leak all over the cap - and even if it's tight it still will.
I thought maybe I lost the gasket but I have the 2nd one still in packaging and there's nothing there. Pretty disappointing.
Did not like threw away!

Siminder Kaur and Vaneet Singh have fought over custody of their son Anhad for almost two years, both in courts in India, where the separated couple are from, and in courts in the United States, where they now live.
Their battle dates back to 2015 when the couple left Anhad, then two years old, with Mr Singh’s parents in the north Indian city of Mohali, returning to the US where they hoped to work on their marriage. Once they initiated divorce proceedings in 2016, however, Mr Singh refused to return Anhad to Ms Kaur, claiming that she was mentally ill and an alcoholic; in turn, she argued that he was physically abusive and had wrested Anhad from her.
But what started out as a family dispute has now taken on a much bigger shape. On Friday last week, India’s Supreme Court began to hear a petition filed by Ms Kaur, along with a father in a similar position and a US-based organisation called Bring Our Kids Home (BOKH), which is made up of roughly two dozen parents who claim children have been abducted by their spouses and taken to India.
The petition urges the court to frame guidelines to resolve such “abductions”, and calls upon the Indian government to join the Hague Convention on Child Abduction, an international treaty in force since 1983.
The Convention, which aims to return children to the country from which they were taken and to ensure that custody disputes are dealt with in that country’s courts, has 98 countries as signatories. India isn’t among them, but a government-appointed committee is holding public hearings to make recommendations about joining the treaty.
Such abduction cases are alleged worldwide. Last year, a woman in Australia was imprisoned after being charged with kidnapping her two children and taking them from her estranged husband. She was later released after being ordered by the court to pay compensation.
But although abduction cases are by no means exclusive to certain countries, nearly 23 per cent of the applications filed every year under the Hague Convention deal with children being taken out of the US.
Roughly 1,000 American children are “abducted” overseas by a parent annually, according to US state department statistics. In January 2016, the department had 83 open cases of reported abductions to India, 25 of which had been filed the previous year.
Of all the parents who take their children to other countries globally, nearly 70 per cent are women, according to Hague Convention statistics.
Several Indian lawyers representing mothers who have returned to India with their children after fleeing domestic abuse argue that The Hague Convention does not protect such women.
Such situations are fraught with danger and difficulty. Women may often be returning to a home where they have faced physical or emotional abuse. They may also not have the resources to fight lawsuits in the US, especially if their husbands or ex-husbands were the wage-earners in their families.
Mothers worry that through such lawsuits, the fathers of their children will impel US consular officials to pursue action in India, Ms Aiyar said.
Under current Indian law, the only recourse for parents whose children have been taken to India is the filing of a lawsuit in Indian courts.
BOKH’s co-founder disagrees, however, saying that only a minority of cases of abducted children involve spousal violence.
Anil Malhotra, a Chandigarh-based lawyer who has represented several parents overseas whose spouses have taken their children away to India, said an international platform like the Hague Convention was essential because the issue is international in scope.
At present, resolving disputes in multiple court systems becomes lengthy and expensive, harming the child’s welfare. “The present situation plays into the hands of the abducting parent,” Mr Malhotra said.
Ms Kaur too says in her petition to the Indian Supreme Court that the odds were stacked against her. Despite this, however, a US court has returned Anhad to Ms Kaur for the time being, even as her custody case continues. Mr Singh was threatened with arrest but Ms Kaur agreed to drop her charges against him if Anhad was returned to her.
Escorted by an FBI team, Ms Kaur met her son at the airport gate when he landed in the US earlier this year, and she picked him up as soon as she saw him. Her arms, she said in her petition to the Indian supreme court, grew sore from holding and carrying her son, “but that pain was the sweetest pain she [had] felt in a long time”.

In our re-visited festive guide to coffee gifts, Samuel Goldsmith, our Editor in Chief, suggests a variety of exciting items for the coffee lover in your life.
We must not forget the importance of Christmas. It means many different things – symbolically and emotionally - to a wide variety of people. However, we cannot ignore the fact that it now so often involves presents and, let’s be honest, most of us love receiving a gift, or ten.
There’s so much to love about the Keep Cup. It’s a beautiful thing, you can design your own and, probably most importantly, it helps to save the planet. The 8oz Cork Brew is a great gift for coffee drinkers – you can fill it up at home before going to work or take it to your local coffee shop and ask them to fill it for you (some even give you a discount). The glass cup means you don’t taint the coffee flavour and the cork is sourced from offcuts from the Portuguese wine industry – a nice eco touch! Also, it’s less than £20 so suits a wide variety of budgets.
OK, so this might not be something you buy for your friends unless you’re extremely generous but it would be the perfect present for anyone who wants to start getting experimental with their coffee. The IKAWA at Home allows you to roast your own coffee – it comes with impressive instructions and an app that helps you to control your roasting. The IKAWA at Home system also allows you to purchase green coffee and find out their suggested recipes for roasting on the app. It’s a clever system and is sure to be a much loved Christmas gift.
It’s not a revolutionary thing to say that many speciality coffee drinkers are also in to culinary experiences. Also, they’re increasingly concerned by sustainability. Why not combine all three of these into a gift? The Espresso Mushroom Company have created these great Kitchen Gardens that allow you to grow your own mushrooms in upcycled coffee grounds. If that wasn’t enough, they grow in two weeks and look beautiful whilst they’re doing so.
Perfect for a coffee beginner or someone who has been a coffee enthusiast for years, the V60 is one of the best ways to make coffee at home. It's simple to use, requires little effort, and makes a great cup of filter coffee. It's a method favoured by some of the best coffee brewers in the world. This set includes everything one needs (other than the coffee).
The Comandante is a beautiful piece of kit. It’s not cheap but it isn’t expensive for a good quality grinder. The only difference is, it’s hand operated. This is perfect for travelling as you can easily take it away with you – even to different countries – as you don’t need to rely on finding a power point. It’s known for it’s grind consistency and aesthetics and will not disappoint whoever opens it.
If you’re in to coffee you will no doubt of heard of the AeroPress. The Kompresso works in a similar way but is for making espresso. What makes it so impressive is that it can deliver over 9 bars of pressure whilst extracting – this is perfect for espresso. Like the Comandante it’s great for travelling with (you’ll obviously need hot water) and it’s not super pricy for an espresso maker these days.
This one is a little tenuous when it comes to coffee, however, you’ll seriously amaze when you explain it to the fortunate receiver. Billy Clark is a very talented illustrator who was chosen by Liberty (the trendy London department store) to design the artwork for their retail coffee. He sells prints on his web shop at a very reasonable price.
We thought we would save the best until last. For the festive period we are offering a special Christmas package of all four of our Specialty Coffee Maps for a very joyful price as well as free shipping. The maps guide you through the best that Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, and London have to offer in the way of specialty coffee.
