If I asked a roomful of IT Leaders what their teams spend most of their time on, too many would say: “Housekeeping.” In an age where enterprise IT has been democratized and shadow IT runs rampant, IT departments are racing to keep up with the proliferation of software and devices.
Business logic. Data logic. Planning and executing an agile architecture.
The difference between the two scenarios is simple. Cloud-based services free up the leaders and their teams to focus on flexibility and modularity—building and evolving solutions and architectures in weeks or months rather than the years it used to take. If the Holy Grail is agile business, then agile architecture is the infrastructure that gets you there. And telecom companies have some road to travel—only one in five considers itself to be predominantly or fully agile.1 The move to cloud is necessary for agility. For example, consider a major cable operator building a mobile app for watching shows outside of the home. Fast-changing business rules need to be quickly reflected in the app. Cloud-based services provide that speed and flexibility in a way no other technology can.
Getting to an agile architecture via cloud-based services is a journey. At issue is how companies achieve the end goal. Some simply lift and shift—moving what was on in-house servers to cloud-based servers. While that works in the short term to expand capacity or save costs, a more strategic route now exists.
The cloud-based services market has matured to the point that companies can now create truly agile architectures based on “serverless” services. The portfolio of service offerings is broader and deeper than ever. Companies that create a serverless application architecture are reaping the benefits of faster deployments, fewer systems to create and manage, consistently up-to-date security patches on the underlying infrastructure, and other time-saving housekeeping chores.
Additionally, most serverless services are inherently scalable and resilient, which saves design and deployment time. Given that eight out of 10 executives say platform-based business models will be core to their business strategy within three years2, going to a services model not only benefits companies internally, but is essential to the partnering necessary in our digital world. Accenture Strategy research finds 38 percent of companies struggle with establishing the technology platform necessary to support their ecosystems strategy.3 For a platform-based ecosystem to work, businesses must rearchitect their legacy systems in favor of lightweight architectures built on microservices and these new cloud services.
An increasing number of companies are now considering a zero-based approach for streamlining costs and improving agility. Using a zero-based mindset, what we call ZBx, they recreate their organizations from a clean sheet—determining what is necessary to produce the desired outcomes, from budget to talent. IT leaders can do the same within their own organization as they create an entirely new clean sheet of applications that are based on business logic and data flow needs rather than on systems and storage. Some internal systems may make the transition to this new architecture, and IT leaders should be willing to walk away from those that don’t in favor of more agile systems.
For example, consider a major media company that is trying to improve the information it can glean from a continuous stream of user responsiveness data. In the past, building an analytics pipeline for collecting, transforming, and learning from this data would start with building a large footprint of systems and storage before even starting to think about the business logic and data flows. But instead, Accenture Strategy showed this customer how to design a big data architecture that could be built in just weeks leveraging serverless services via the major public cloud vendors.
Many senior executives in the communications industry bemoan the rise of agile digital competitors. But, some are taking their teams to new heights, transforming their IT estates into agile cloud-based services. Accenture Strategy research found that deploying new technologies was the top tactic companies use to disrupt their industry.5 These are the companies who put themselves in a position to compete on speed, cost and service against those competitors. And don’t forget what this move will do for your talent. Ask an IT pro to choose between “housekeeping” and “innovating”—and there you have your answer. Cloud-based services are a boost, inside and outside your IT house.
With 25+ years of experience, Matt guides communications and media clients through complex cloud and software transformations.

The latest lawsuit to target the proposed Clippers arena in Inglewood alleges two city-linked boards violated state laws governing open meetings and the environmental impact of construction projects in June when they approved disposing of land connected to the plan.
In a complaint filed Friday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the group Inglewood Residents Against Takings and Evictions asked for an injunction preventing the land’s transfer until the boards comply with the Brown Act and California’s Environmental Quality Act.
“The failure to adequately inform the public is consistent with and further evidence of the City of Inglewood’s deliberate attempts to obfuscate the true nature of actions taken to further the Clippers Arena Project,” the 27-page complaint said.
At least four other lawsuits related to the arena have been filed since the privately-financed project became public in June 2017. One of those lawsuits, also filed by the Hermosa Beach law firm Chatten-Brown & Carstens representing Inglewood Residents Against Takings and Evictions, is scheduled for a hearing in December.
The complaint last week accused the Successor Agency to the Inglewood Redevelopment Agency (composed of Butts and Inglewood’s four other City Council members) and the Oversight Board to the Successor Agency to the Inglewood Redevelopment Agency (on which Butts serves) of not informing the public that the disposition of 13 parcels of land was connected to the arena.
Neither meeting notice, required to be issued 72 hours before the gathering, noted the connection between the agenda items and the arena.
“The Oversight Board failed to inform the public that the properties are proposed to be disposed of pursuant to an agreement with extensive potential impacts on thousands of Inglewood residents and businesses,” the complaint said, adding that residents “could not have reasonably understood the nature of the action or the implications of the same” from the agenda language.
Most of the 13 parcels at issue, all vacant, are located along West Century Boulevard between South Prairie Avenue and South Yukon Avenue. Stan Kroenke’s 298-acre sports and entertainment complex that includes a stadium for the Rams and Chargers is under construction across the street.
The arena project is currently in an environmental review process that is expected to take 18 months. Eighty-four percent of the 23 acres that would include the arena, as well as a training facility, team offices, hotel and more, is owned by Inglewood or the two agencies.
Though the Clippers signed an exclusive negotiating agreement with Inglewood last year to explore building the arena, the team’s lease to play at Staples Center runs through 2024.
Developers are expected to release the first renderings for the arena this fall.

Imagine a busy maternity assessment and treatment area that sees more than 12,000 patients each year.
Now imagine that in a space similar to an emergency room, built before many of those women were even born. Time for an update - and not only for aesthetics!
In the decades since BC Women's labour and delivery area was initially built in 1982, not only have medical advances and technology evolved, but so too has our understanding of patient centred-care. Welcoming environments that protect privacy, with comfortable space for loved ones, better support patients and staff - it's all about quality care. And that's why we're very excited that our new Urgent Care Centre is now open.
Here, women who are pregnant to six weeks post-birth who need care arrive for triage, assessment and admissions and she will be cared for within a quieter, more private and welcoming space. The entire area gives both privacy to patients, while enabling interdisciplinary collaboration.

This paper examines the representation of Blacks in contemporary Japanese literature and the mass media. It argues that many stereotypes Japanese hold concerning Blacks are in part the product of an uncritical acceptance of Western representations of Blacks and in part a result of power relations which have influenced the type of images of Blacks Japan receives from the West, particularly the United States, and which serve to perpetuate racial stereotyping.
This paper examines the issue of discrimination in Japanese firms. As part of the Japanese social structure, Japanese firms share the value system of Japanese society at large. Japanese firms, whether located domestically or abroad, frequently and systematically discriminate against Blacks in hiring and housing on the basis of racial stereotypes prevalent in Japanese mass culture. The study reveals the type of social prejudices Blacks encounter in Japan through the case study of a six-year African American Tokyo resident.

Ideal conditions, greeted the competitors for the Angling Trust & Canal & River Trust Stillwater Championship qualifier at the picturesque Clattercote Reservoir, near Banbury, Oxfordshire on Saturday 21st June. All that remained was for the fish to respond in numbers, which they never did, although the weights for the top three individuals were respectable, but nothing compared to what the venue can produce.
Top rod on the day by a narrow margin was Charles Simpson from Sheffield with a weight of 29.980 kgs. Fishing the pellet waggler at distance from permanent peg 93, Charles caught 10 carp up to 5 kgs.
In second place on permanent peg 97, and just over a kilo behind the winner was Paul Cooke from Leicester with a weight of 28.760 kgs. Fishing a similar method to the winner, Paul landed 9 carp up 5 kgs. Third place went to Geoff Ringer from Ravensthorpe, Northampton, on permanent peg 95, with a weight of 22.060 kgs, again using the pellet waggler.
The three qualifiers going through to the grand final at Blythe waters on 20th September are from ‘A’ Section – Paul Knapman from Rugby with a weight of 16.880 kgs made up of 4 carp and a tench caught on paste tight to the walkway boards. ‘B’ Section – Charles Simpson 29.980 kgs, and ‘C’ Section – Jamie Hughes (Maver) from The Wirral, Merseyside with 10. 880 kgs, all silver fish (roach and hybrids) caught at 10 metres.
The next qualifier moves to Kiveton Waters in Sheffield on Wednesday 2nd July. There are tickets still available for this qualifier. If any Angling Trust individual members would like a ticket please contact the Competitions department at the Angling Trust on 0115 9061 301.

"EU27 unanimously agrees on its response to UK’s requests," Donald Tusk, the President of the European council tweeted after a meeting here.
According to the plan, the EU agreed to an extension to Article 50 till May 22, provided the British Parliament supports the Withdrawal Deal next week when UK Prime Minister Theresa May will hold a meaningful vote.
If the deal is not approved next week by the Parliament, the UK will be given an extension only till April 12, according to Tusk.
While outlining the details of the deal, Tusk said EU leaders responded to the request in a "positive spirit."
Despite efforts to avoid a no-deal scenario, Tusk highlighted that the EU would be continuing no-deal preparations.
"All of us are aware objectively how difficult the situation is … I am very satisfied, especially because we still have open so many options. Frankly speaking I was very sad before our meeting and now I’m much more optimistic," Tusk stated following the EU meeting.
In 2016, over 50 per cent of the UK electorate voted to leave the EU, following which the British government triggered Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, beginning the country's process of its exit from the European bloc.
The United Kingdom is currently posed to exit from the bloc on March 29 with no support for a deal in sight, even as the British Parliament has rejected the possibility of leaving the EU without a deal. Subsequently, the British Parliament also voted for an extension to Brexit.
Honouring this, May wrote to the European Council President on March 20, asking for a three-month extension to Brexit till June 30.

I have been looking around the web at new applications and came accross the TeamTalk for SharePoint 2010 by ZevenSeas. They released a no code (server code) site template for internal twitter team talks. I thought that the concepts was fantastic and simple to implement, so i decided to create my own version using Visual Studio 2010 and Utilise SharePoint 2010’s new Sandbox Solutions.
My Solution which is now on the LifeInSharePoint Codeplex page is a sandbox solution which deploys content types, list definitions, and contains three webparts which you can place anywhere on the page / site. The Solution is designed so you can install the solution on multiple Webs and they will work individually.
The release at the moment is a beta release and any comments, additions and recommendations would be fantastic. I will be implementing a “Re-tweeting” functionality as well as a SharePoint Server version which links in with user profiles for a more enhanced experience. Like i said, its still work in progress, but please feel free to try it out.

An electrician’s job requires adaptability and flexibility. There is a lot of climbing and maintaining awkward positions, while fixing the faults or implementing new installations.
If you are an electrician, you know what I am talking about. The adaptability and flexibility can be achieved by utilizing a good pair of electrician boots.
With so many options in the market to pick from, getting your pair of electrician boots right can be a difficult task. But picking a wrong option can make your job very uncomfortable and inconvenient.
Good news is that I have done a fair share of research and testing of the boots available in the market, and have reviewed the best options in the below sections.
My first pair of electrician shoes was a result of hasty decision making and no prior knowledge about the product. It is no surprise that it proved to be a poor pair and had me hating myself whenever I used it. Moving on from that time, I have learned a lot about how to judge electrical hazard shoes, the important properties that make or break the deal and the brands which can be relied upon with eyes closed.
I have surveyed the market and hand-picked the most popular EH rated boots. Of course, I had to sort through quite a lot of pairs, before I ended up with a handful which had a sweet balance of comfort and execution. I discussed my results with the EH rated shoes sellers and vendors, asked them about their opinion and tried to find out anything else which I may have missed. I also researched online for customer feedback about the products and dropped any shoes that may have persistent problems or poor buyer satisfaction. After coming up with my final list, I asked some of the electricians to wear the pairs and give their opinion on the shoes. I am happy to say that they were satisfied with the performance of the pairs in my list.
Durability: This is one of the most important factors in any professional working shoe and especially for electricians, since they work in various conditions (including extreme ones!). Therefore you want your shoes to be long lasting, especially if you are paying a good sum of money for them. A lot of testing had to be done to compare the durability of the shoes, as naturally all brands describe their shoes as being sturdy.
Protection: Again, another one of the requirement for any electrician is that he is protected from electric shocks, heat and slipping. Therefore, any EH rated shoe should have be reliable and able to face the hazards of the job, which are very common in the everyday job of any electrician. For comparing the protection, I checked the EH rating of the different pairs and whether or not they come with protected toes. Generally, the EH rating should be high if you are working in an industrial environment, since they can tolerate very high amount of electricity without hurting you.
Convenience And Comfort: Given the tough conditions you, as an electrician, may work in, the last thing you would want is your pair of shoes biting your feet or giving you itches. A quality pair of electrician boot will leave you in a good mood while you are working and improve your concentration on your job. So, in my list of recommended shoes, comfort will also be of utmost priority.
It is strongly recommended that any professional electrician should get a pair of high quality EH rated boots, like the ones we mention below. While they may be expensive, but truth to be told, they can end up saving you from injuries or worse.
However, If you are mainly in residential settings you may not need a EH rated boot. EH rated boots tend to be more expensive then regular boots. Also most of the boots we reviewed also have some type of composite or steel toe. In general it is good in any setting to have steel toe shoes but in residential work when you are crawling through attics its better to find a boot that has excellent slip resistance or maybe find a great pair of tennis shoes.
Your new boots will be another important Electrical tool that you will use daily!
Finally, we have reached to the main section of our article. In this section I have listed my top electrician shoes picks and have given details about why they have been chosen over several other options in the market.
This Caterpillar soft-toe work boot is an excellent option to look at. We all know about the brilliant reputation of the Caterpillar brand and how its products are some of the best when it comes to using them for rough and tough work.
The CAT tag is synonymous with durability in the professional industry. This pair of boots is solid, to say the least. It comes with Goodyear welt construction, which is essential for working in harsh environment. If you are not aware of Goodyear welt, you can think of it as a construction method which allows the shoes to take the most extreme challenges without breaking down. The company confidently states that you are going to be able to work with this boot for many years to come and the sellers I have discussed with, are also backing this shoe to perform for a long time.
This pair checks all the marks when it comes to protection. It comes with reinsured steel toes, a slip-safe rubber-laid sole and an arch heel for stability while working on ladders. The traction and sturdiness of the shoes allow you to focus on the job at hand, without worrying about losing your balance. The shoes are also certified by ANSI (ASTM F2413-05 1/75 EH) for protection against electrical hazards for up to 600 volts.
Despite being rough and tough on the outside, the pair is very comfortable to wear. It supports your feet with a nylon mesh lying and keeps away sweat from developing, while a unique climasphere technology keeps the internal temperature of the boots cool in summers and warm in winters. This allows you to stick with a single pair for the whole year. Lastly, the full grain leather body allows you to stick your boot in water without any worry.
The buyers have rated this boot highly on all online platforms, which means that it performs to its expectations. Moreover, it is not the most expensive pair, which is an extraordinary incentive for such an astounding all-rounder electrician boot. All in all, this is a deal that will last.
Carhartt is a veteran shoe maker that is known its rugged and durable workplace products. It has been a popular brand for over two centuries and is a brand of choice for many electricians.
The sturdiness of the pair is a deal breaker for most electricians who work in industrial capacities. These work boots exceed expectations regarding their durability. With their cement development and their top-quality elastic outsole, these boots offer all electric repairmen the required sturdiness and reliability to make them approach their work with confidence.
These Carhartt boots have a composite toe that is very effective when handling heavy objects or sharp tools. The rubber base sole of the shoe protects your feet against dangerous chemicals and slippage, which is always an important requirement for working in industrial plants. Another security highlight of these Carhartt work boots is the EH rating (ASTM 2413-11), which will keep you shielded from electric shocks.
When acting as a electric repairman, the solace that your boots convey is fundamental as every one of these specialists are required to work in long stretches of time, while mostly remaining on their feet. To take comfort to maximum, each boot comes with an EVA padded sole (with certified PU strobe pad and PU OrthoLite) that convey five layers of padding for each step you take. Buyers have pointed out that they feel like their feet are on the bed, when they put this pair on.
The customer reviews online have been awesome for this boot. Most of them love the value they are getting for the price of the boot. If you have the ideal fit, Carhartt CMF6366 6-inch Composite Toe Boot can become your optimal friend for work. It’s an extreme work boot, which can guard you regardless of what conditions you are working in.
Best known for making modern quality work boots to counter anything that nature and humans can consider, Keen offers this extraordinary pair of boots for electricians and assembly specialists who are most liable to get electrical shocks.
While the true life of these boots depend altogether on how one uses them, they are a high-quality pair and can easily last for more than a year when used in extreme conditions. However, utilization in normal conditions will drag out an additional year or so, making these shoes last a pretty long time.
Protected, waterproof yet breathable interior is what makes this pair a pretty good option to go with The rubber sole, with slip and oil resistance, gives a reassured grip while working. Better than average sewing and astounding cushioning with ASTM benchmarks took after guarantee a durable work boot for everyday electric work. The boot quality surpasses ASTM expectations meaning you are totally sheltered from shocks while working with electrical instruments, machines and contraptions, while the composite toe gives adequate insurance against drops.
This Keen boot presents an agreeable, short break-in period. . It has a thick leather exterior, while the inside has nylon mesh for sweat and temperature control. Buyers feel this work boot is ideal for all-climate indoor working conditions and for winters, they offer respectable assurance for a hour tops. With the large toe enclose, I can guarantee you that your toes can spread out and breath, giving your feet enough space to flex and move.
The customers are largely happy with buying this boot. It has all the features an electrician would want to excel in his or her job, however it is a bit more expensive than other boots in our list due to its premium manufacturing and features.
Wolverine has run innovative with their new Legend work boots and these have been very successful in the market. The new technology used by Wolverine implies you’ll have the capacity to work longer and with less fatigue. Let’s check out the details below.
Constructed from leather material, the boot is built for execution, consolidating the comfort of durashocks with a rubber outsole to give predominant hold in differed conditions. Since the boot exterior is flexible, it can adjust to the climate and condition, which is an important factor in it having a long life. If you maintain this pair properly, you can easily use it for several years.
The new Wolverine Men’s Tarmac Work Boot offers an ideal mix of solace and security. They have a top-quality composite toe that is impervious to electric shocks, and also keep your feet ensured against any harm caused by a heavy drop. I can’t push enough how critical this component is for all electricians. Additionally, your feet will remain dry with the boot’s prevalent waterproof leather that has extraordinary films that keep water from getting in your feet. On top of that, these Wolverine Tarmac boots have a reflective wrap for visibility during night or in dark conditions.
These boots have an awesome component, the ultra-light EVA padded sole which diminishes the boot’s weight and expands the solace given to the electrician’s feet. The boots also have a removable pad that makes them amazingly comfy for use during long hours, along with a good support at the neck to prevent ankle roll.
Customers are very satisfied with their purchases regarding this product, both online and offline. Many of them feel this is the best pair of electrician shoes they have bought. All in all, the Wolverine Legend electrician boots are a must have if you have the budget to spend!
While the significance of work boots is self-evident, picking the best match, that can be somewhat more confounded. Would it be a good idea for you to pass by brand or by cost? My determination of boots will enable you to get your most favorite one from an array of top quality choices. Every one of the items specified in my rundown are trending in the market and have a strong reputation for built quality, comfort, and in particular protection.

When you can walk straight into a high street pharmacy for botox, or make an enquiry to a faceless chain for laser hair removal with zero personal interaction or understanding of the starting point and objective, there is a problem. We don’t do generic, we don’t do factory line. We do personal. We do bespoke. We do results driven treatments, tailored to you.
We offer laser hair removal, fat freezing, body contouring, skin tightening, microneedling, AlumierMD peels, dermaplaning, plasma pen fibroblast and hot waxing.
We hold the highest level of qualifications and we are an NHS approved partner, using only Gold Standard, award winning, FDA and CE approved technology.
I came to the aesthetics industry later in life and feel so fortunate to have found a career I’m so passionate about; people often assume I was a beauty therapist but this is not my background, my qualifications are purely as an aesthetic practitioner. It was after I left a particularly unfriendly and impersonal laser hair removal consultation myself that I felt I could make a difference to the approach and HLA has grown organically from experience. I live in St Albans, work in Radlett and am fortunate to have such fantastic mentors and strong female influencers around me, who all encourage and inspire each other. It’s important to me to champion local businesses, I truly believe that as women we should support each other and that sharing connections and ideas can only help business and each other flourish. Outside of HLA, I am a true crime aficionado and manage to combine my support to the local community with my interest in justice, and am a Magistrate sitting on the St Albans bench.
With 35 years of clinical experience, Elizabeth brings both wisdom and warmth to the studio. After completing her Masters in Nursing, Elizabeth managed high profile private hospitals, guiding them through many successful CQC inspections. We feel very lucky to have such a wealth of experience at our finger tips at HLA!
Caroline brings a great energy to the studio. With years of PA and marketing experience in the UK and abroad, this is the girl behind our social media, website and administration. Front of house with added fun.

The Farbrother Building is located at 93,13 in the suburb of Pescodside. This tall building has a mobile phone mast rising out from the roof and is a landmark in Pescodside. When the building is powered, it enables mobile phone service to the suburb of Pescodside. Should mobile phone services within the suburb cease survivors are asked to check on the building and confirm whether the portable generator is still intact or has simply has run out of fuel.
Survivors as encouraged to refuel the Farbrother Building's generator or replace it when destroyed. Inexperienced survivors should be aware that Portable Generators can be located inside Factories, Fire Stations, Power Stations, and Mall Hardware Stores. Fuel Cans are located in Auto Repair Shops, Factories, Warehouses, car parks, Power Stations, and Junkyards. The warehouse to the east of the Farbrother Building is therefore a prime location to locate new fuel sources for the generator.
This building should be Extremely Heavily barricaded at all times. This is in accordance with the mutually agreed-upon Pescodside Barricade Plan set forth by local survivor groups and the Dulston Alliance, who routinely work together to monitor that the barricades for this building are at the aforementioned level. This building is meant to serve as a safehouse for Malton's veteran survivors and houses the suburb's phone mast. As such, its barricades should never be lowered since if the portable generator is destroyed all cell phone communications throughout the suburb will cease.
This building is owned and maintained by the Pescodside Defense Alliance and is also home to group's leader, Lemonhead7t7.
September 7th, 2007 - With the Farbrother War long since over, the situation has returned to normal. Well normal enough, seeing as there's that zombie apocalypse thing. Genny running, survivors inside, the building is nice and cozy.
June 22nd, 2007 - Operation: Cleansing Wave concluded on this date. A joint operation between the Dulston Alliance and the Burchell Arms Regulars, resulted in the deaths of over 60+ SARG clones and cleansed the Farbrother Building of their presence. SARG has since claimed that they can easily field their dead clones as a mighty zombie army, but the Alliance doubts the effectiveness of this claim.
June 16th, 2007 - The Farbrother War has ended. Terrorist Unit, St. Anastasius' Royal Guard (SARG), has declared victory as they control the building and have managed to kill all members of the PDA who had formerly claimed it. Even so, the Dulston Alliance has leveled serious allegations against SARG, claiming that they used clones during the conflict. A claim which has since been proven true. Therefore the Alliance has called this small conflict the Farbrother Farce.
June 14th, 2007 - The Farbrother War has begun. The Terrorist Unit St. Anastasius' Royal Guard of Raines Hills took over the Farbrother building in Pescodside. What started as a one building operation soon turned into a full scale war between the Pescodside Defense Alliance. Among the PDA stands the mutual or non-mutual allies such as The Burchell Arms Regulars, Friends of the Featherstone Library, Metal Fox, and Dante's Guard. Learn more about this and past conflicts.
April 27th, 2007 - The new survivor group, Metal Fox, has been spotted defending this location from time to time.
March 13th, 2007 - There was carnage at the Farbrother Building today as the zombie group, Dead Air, breached and ransacked Pescodside's mobile phone mast. The siege ended when the last two survivors found inside were dragged out screaming to be served-up as a free lunch to passing ferals. Survivor reports indicate that this attack was the direct result of the group's Tour '07, which has them moving from suburb to suburb in an effort to destroy every phone mast building along the way.

Preprints (earlier versions) of this paper are available at http://preprints.jmir.org/preprint/11865, first published Aug 08, 2018.
Background: Web-based survey data collection has been widely used because of its advantages, although attaining and retaining participants can be challenging. There are several factors associated with successful Web-based survey participation; yet little is known regarding racial or ethnic and socioeconomic differences in the progress of a Web-based survey.
Objective: This study aimed to examine racial or ethnic and socioeconomic status (SES) differences in participation in a Web-based survey.
Methods: We conducted a secondary data analysis of a study dataset containing information on parents of preschool children. We used 2 phases of Web-based surveys: (1) screening questions including race or ethnicity information and (2) full survey with a consent form. Once potential participants submitted the screening questions, including their racial or ethnic information, the team sent the full survey link to potential participants who met study eligibility criteria. We calculated the proportion of racial or ethnic groups in each of the following areas: consent, partial survey completion, and total survey completion.
Results: A total of 487 participants (236 non-Hispanic white, 44 Hispanic, 137 black, and 70 Asian) completed initial screening questions, and a total of 458 participants met study eligibility criteria. Compared with black participants, non-Hispanic white and Asian participants were more likely to consent to participate in the study (odds ratio [OR] 1.73, 95% CI 1.08-2.78, P=.02; OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.04-4.13, P=.04, respectively). There was no racial or ethnic difference with respect to the completion of demographic questions or completion of a partial survey. Finally, compared with black participants, non-Hispanic white participants were more likely to complete the entire survey (OR 3.36, 95% CI 1.51-7.06, P<.001). With respect to SES, less educated non-Hispanic white participants were less likely to complete the survey compared with their counterparts with more education (OR 0.15, 95% CI 0.50-1.48, P<.001).
Conclusions: We found a significant difference among racial or ethnic groups as well as different education levels in Web-based survey participation. Survey researchers need to consider the SES and racial or ethnic differences in Web-based survey participation and develop strategies to address this bias in participation and completion in their research.
Self-report surveys are often a main data collection or measurement strategy in quantitative research. The self-report data collection method is used not only for major nationally representative datasets such as National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and the US Census [1,2] but also by researchers conducting individual research . Due to numerous advantages such as convenience and cost-effectiveness, self-report surveys are frequently used to collect data from individuals .
There are challenges to promoting reliable and credible data collection by a self-report survey. A primary challenge for researchers employing self-report surveys is to encourage the target population to initiate and complete the survey as the method heavily relies on self-selection. Self-selection bias refers to when survey participants are allowed to decide whether or not they want to participate in a survey and is often mentioned as a limitation on the generalizability of the results of survey studies . Random sampling from the general population for survey research is a key method for enhancing the generalizability of the study outcomes. However, the convenience sampling method instead of random sampling is widely used despite the known weaknesses because of the ease of researchers’ access to the target population . Even after researchers have accessed the target population, there are some challenges for both researchers and participants in completing the survey, which could influence the data collection procedures. The issues of a low completion rate and a low return rate even for nationally representative epidemiological studies are well documented in survey research . For instance, the traditional method of administering surveys using paper and pencil could make the processes of data collection time-consuming, including survey preparation, survey distribution, survey turnaround or return, data entry, and data preparation .
More recently, Web-based survey methods with advantages over traditional paper surveys have been widely used. The identified advantages compared with the traditional paper survey method include more flexible design options, lower delivery cost, and less data entry time . However, there are also several challenges that researchers often face when implementing a Web-based survey method for data collection. Similar to traditional survey methods, initiating and completing the survey can be still challenging. Participants who respond to survey research are often more motivated, more technologically savvy, and more actively engaged in their health as well as the topic being studied, which could result in self-selection bias . There have been mixed reports in the literature regarding the differences in response rate between a Web-based survey and a traditional paper survey. Zuidgeest et al reported comparable response rates for a mixed-mode survey, which included a Web-based survey and a mailed questionnaire . However, Aitken et al obtained a return rate from a Web-based survey that was much lower than the equivalent paper-based survey . Thus, Web-based survey methods might be in a transitional phase as an alternative method to collect data; as such, their use, which can be conducted with several advantages such as a lower cost, might yield varying response rates .
For further advancement of Web-based survey, researchers need to understand that there are many factors that influence Web-based survey participation. First, a principal factor influencing an initiation of the Web-based survey includes survey target population characteristics such as age, gender, socioeconomic status (SES), and race or ethnicity. These characteristics might influence the potential respondent’s accessibility to the internet as well as their motivation to participate in a Web-based survey. Age might influence the response to a Web-based survey because of different rates of internet usage by age group; for example, according to the Pew Research Center, about 97% to 98% of adults aged 18-49 years use the internet, whereas only about 66% of adults aged 65 years and above use the internet . Thus, younger potential participants might more frequently participate in a Web-based survey and be more familiar with the features of a Web-based survey method. Although gender, family income, and race or ethnicity are not known to be directly related to internet usage, those who have not completed high school are less likely to access the internet than college graduates (65% vs 97%) . McDonald et al targeted young college students to investigate tobacco use and assessed the response rate during the second phase of the data collection. They found that individuals who were male, black, or seeking a bachelor’s degree were less likely to complete the survey compared with those who were female, white, or seeking an advanced degree.
The methods by which a survey is presented and delivered as well as its features comprise another principal factor influencing completion of the survey. The presentation of a Web survey might be more flexible than a traditional paper version survey, including the proper implementation of skip patterns or branching items that could filter responses to questions within or subsequent to the trigger question . Web-based survey instruments also include features such as a progress bar to help participants to track their progress in the survey, which might improve the likelihood that they will complete the survey by reducing the perception of task burden . In terms of survey delivery, Sauermann et al found that personalized survey contact (eg, using the first name of the participant when sending a reminder email), a lottery incentive for survey completion, and changing contact wording (ie, change the wording of each contact message to maintain respondent attention) were positively associated with response rate. Thus, factors related to the transition of a survey from a paper format to a Web-based version with more flexible approaches might influence the completion rate .
It has been emphasized to include socioeconomically disadvantaged populations and under-represented racial or ethnic minorities to health research to diminish health disparities and improve health equity. As internet and other technologies are ubiquitous in today’s society, researchers might anticipate that such technologies can diminish SES and racial or ethnic participation differences in participation in a Web-based survey. However, with the exception of specific studies of response rates, such as that of McDonald et al , there is limited information regarding SES and racial or ethnic differences in Web-based survey participation. Due to a paucity of information, it is important to understand whether the progress of participation in Web-based surveys is similar across socioeconomic and racial or ethnic groups.
This study aimed to examine the SES and racial or ethnic differences of participation progress in a publicly available Web-based survey.
We conducted a secondary analysis of data from a cross-sectional study that enrolled racially or ethnically diverse parents of preschool children to examine the relationship between parental psychological distress and parental feeding practices in families of preschool children and to understand parents’ practices in child feeding and food preparation . Inclusion criteria were as follows: a participant was a parent or guardian of a child aged 2-5 years (1) who spoke and read English and (2) whose child did not have any chronic disease diagnosed by a health care provider that could affect his or her diet or body mass index.
We started our recruitment for the parent study at local community settings (including preschools, churches, and libraries) as well as community activity facilities (eg, Young Men’s Christian Associations) in the southeast area of the United States using convenience sampling methods. With permission from school authorities, several local preschool administrators and teachers informed families about the study using the study flyer (eg, sending the flyer home with each child). A research staff member visited the preschool as needed to introduce the study to potential participants when they dropped off or picked up their children. We identified ethnicity-specific churches (eg, Korean churches, black churches, and Hispanic churches) and asked them to post study flyers on their church bulletin boards. The research staff also visited ethnic grocery stores (ie, Hispanic and Asian stores) to post flyers with the permission of the owners. We asked each enrolled participant to mention our study to their friends, relatives, or other potentially eligible families. We also targeted local pediatric clinics to post the flyer in the waiting room. The research staff visited the clinics as needed to introduce the study and to give a flyer to potential participants when they visited their health care providers.
In addition, we posted the study flyer in online communities or other social media such as Facebook to enhance our reach to potential participants. To accelerate the recruitment, we also posted the flyer on Craigslist, which is a nationwide advertisement website for community residents. We selected at least one city from each state (excluding Hawaii and Alaska) and targeted major metropolitan cities to have a more socioeconomically and racially or ethnically diverse sample.
Our initial goal was to recruit comparable participants across racial or ethnic groups to compare subgroup differences in the relationship between parental psychological distress and parental practices in feeding. Thus, we used a 2-phase Web-based survey developed in Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) hosted at Duke University , which included (1) screening questions, including race or ethnicity information, and (2) the survey, with a consent form preceding the survey. This strategy allowed us to identify the race or ethnicity of potential study participants before the initiation of the survey. Once potential participants accessed and completed the screening questions (using a publicly available survey link), including their race or ethnicity, we sent the full survey link to eligible participants within 12 hours of confirming their eligibility.
Once they consented, they could freely access the Web survey for up to a month to encourage their completion of the survey. We sent each participant at least one reminder email if they did not finish the survey within a week, using the individual’s first name and different wording for each reminder email. We sent up to 2 weekly reminder emails. The survey required approximately 30-40 min to complete. In brief, the main survey consisted of demographic questions including SES indicators (ie, annual family income and level of education) and other validated questionnaires to assess perceived stress (Perceived Stress Scale, 10 items) , parenting stress (Parental Stress Scale, 18 items) , sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, 19 items) , perceived depression (The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale, 20 items) , social support (Social Support Questionnaire-Shortened version, 12 items) , home food availability (Home Food Inventory, 13 major food categories) , feeding practices (subscales from Child Feeding Questionnaire, 12 items) , and child eating behaviors (Harvard Service Food Frequency Questionnaire) . We provided a thank-you gift by mail (eg, water bottle or divided plate for children) to each participant who completed the survey.
We exported all data from REDCap and conducted data analysis using SPSS (version 24, IBM). First, we conducted descriptive data analyses of sample distributions and characteristics (ie, race or ethnicity, age, and gender) of those who at least completed the demographic questions, which were on the initial page of the main survey after they consented. We categorized the participants based on their eligibility, consent response, whether they completed demographic questions (initial section of the main survey), whether they completed at least half of the survey (partial survey), and whether they completed the entire survey. We used annual family income and the education level as proxy indices of SES. We calculated the proportions for each group by participants’ demographic characteristics (mainly SES and race or ethnicity). We then used logistic regression to test for any significant differences in terms of completing the survey across racial or ethnic and education groups. On the basis of different progress and completion rates, we treated black participants (for race or ethnicity) and those participants who had completed graduate school (for education level) as reference groups for the regression model. We then conducted a 3-factor Chi-square (χ2) analysis to explore survey participation by SES within each racial or ethnic group.
A total of 459 participants (223 non-Hispanic white [NHW], 42 Hispanic, 132 black, and 62 Asian) completed screening questions identifying their race or ethnicity and met study eligibility criteria (Table 1). Of these, a total of 310 participants consented to participate in the study, and 259 participants completed the demographic questions. Table 1 shows the demographic characteristics of those who consented and completed demographic information. Of those who completed demographic questions (n=259), 84.4% (221/259) were female; we had asked the primary caregiver, who tended to be the child’s mother, to participate in the survey. A majority of participants (81.3% [213/259]) were at least college graduates, and 33.4% (87/259) of the participants had an annual family income of US $80,000 or more.
Table 2 shows the patterns of study participation by race or ethnicity and education.
There was a racial or ethnic difference in obtaining informed consent for participation. Among those who completed screening questions and were eligible, NHWs were 1.7 times more likely to consent to participate in the study than blacks (odds ratio [OR] 1.73, 95% CI 1.08-2.78, P=.02) and Asians were twice as likely to consent to participate in the study as black participants (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.04-4.13, P=.04). However, there was no racial or ethnic difference in the rates of completion of both the demographic questions and of partial surveys. Finally, there was a significant difference among racial or ethnic groups for total survey completion rate. Compared with black participants, NHW participants were more likely to complete the entire survey (OR 3.26, 95% CI 1.51-7.06, P<.001).
aTotal numbers might vary because of missing values.

Table 3. Web-based survey participation by education level within each racial or ethnic group (N=259).
Among indices of SES, we found that there was a significant difference by education levels with respect to the completion of a partial survey and the entire survey. Although there was no significant difference between college graduates and graduate school graduates, participants with a high school diploma or less were less likely to complete the partial survey or the entire survey (OR 0.08, 95% CI 0.02-0.39, P=.001; OR 0.15, 95% CI 0.50-1.48, P<.001, respectively). There was no significant relationship between annual family income and the rate of proportionate completion.
We then explored survey participation by education level within each racial or ethnic group (Table 3). Among NHW participants, we found a significant difference by education level, that is, higher education was associated with more completion of a partial survey as well as the entire survey (χ22=12.7, P<.001; χ22=13.3, P<.001, respectively). Among black participants, there was a significant difference by education levels in total survey completion (χ22=1.2, P=.04). There were no significant differences by education level in the Hispanic or Asian groups.
We examined the rate of participation in a Web-based survey using convenience sampling strategies by different SES and racial or ethnic groups. We found that there were significant differences in the progress of Web-based survey participation among different groups in terms of race or ethnicity and education level. This is an important finding as the issue of health disparities is a major challenge in our health care system. It has been suggested that survey research results based on disproportionate participation by different portions of the population limit the applicability or generalizability of those results to the general population. Our results confirm reports from the literature that disproportional study attrition levels by different groups of race or ethnicity and education still exist for a Web-based survey.
We identified some trends in study participation of black participants. Of our different racial or ethnic groups, black participants were the least likely to consent compared with NHWs. Once they consented, they initiated the survey (there was no significant difference for initiation and partial survey completion); yet they were less likely to complete the entire survey. Furthermore, with publicly available study recruitment materials (flyer and online ads), black participants were likely to access the link to the screening questions, but they were less likely to consent to participate. However, once other minorities including Hispanic and Asian populations completed the screening questions and consented, they were likely to complete the survey. Even if internet accessibility has been increased across populations, our findings indicate a disproportionate distribution in the response rate.
There has been discussion of the historical barriers to participating in health research among black communities. Mistrust of health research is rooted in the mistreatment of black people by medical researchers , and this built mistrust still hinders the participation of blacks in health research . In our study population, black participants were less likely to consent even if they completed the screening survey (which indicated that they were able to be reached by internet), and they were less likely to complete the entire survey. Although a Web-based survey has the potential to decrease health disparities in health research through its reach to a different proportion of the population, black populations might still be less likely to complete a survey even after they initiate it. Thus, we need to consider several factors (in addition to internet access) that influence the rate of study participation among black populations, including more limited access to resources, lower literacy levels, and a fear of disclosure . These factors might continue to influence their perception of researcher disrespect and thus their decision as to whether to participate in Web-based survey research.
Biased findings based on limited representative sampling might lead to biased health recommendations, further deepening health disparities. Prior research has been focused on how to improve recruitment of underrepresented populations by addressing facilitators (eg, benefits to participants and cultural congruence) and barriers (eg, mistrust, stigma, and competing demands) . Some researchers have posited that the use of a Web-based survey might diminish the issue of the disproportionate participants from different population . Current research initiatives have been focused on improving health equity by involving underrepresented and disadvantaged members of the population in health research. Historically, racial or ethnic minorities are less likely to participate in any type of health research, and the health equity issue originates from unequal participation in health research, which forms the basis of health care . Thus, research data are usually generated from the racial or ethnic majority, and the research findings are generally applied across racial or ethnic groups. The discrepancy in racial or ethnic different participation in health research has been a critical issue for the current health care system in the United States.
Moreover, health literacy is a significant issue in recruiting community residents to participate in health research. The different attrition rate we found based on the education indicator of SES is not surprising. In our findings, the level of education was related to the degree of survey completion, whereas annual family income was not. Moreover, this result is not just an issue of access to the internet because our study participants had internet access, but the attrition rate differed by the level of education. An interesting finding was the significant differences in survey completion by the level of education within the NHW and black subpopulations. Within the same racial or ethnic groups, disadvantaged individuals’ circumstances might hinder them from completing a Web-based survey. Health literacy in those with less education across race or ethnicity population might be overlooked if we focus only on racial or ethnic disparities. These differences in Web-based survey participation might be related to health literacy. Thus, we need to consider that disproportional survey participation is not only an issue of race or ethnicity. The difference by education level that we found is consistent with previous reports, which stated that individuals with lower education level were less likely to complete a Web-based survey . We suggest that it would be related to electronic health (eHealth) literacy, which is defined as an ability to work with technology such as thinking of media-related issues, searching for numerous information, and making decisions based on the information . Individuals with lower education levels might possess lower levels of both health literacy and eHealth literacy . As health research methodology has been improved using more advanced technologies, we might need to consider eHealth literacy as a principal factor in the successful transition to the technology-based health research and health care outcomes.
For further enhancement of participation by underrepresented populations in Web-based survey research, researchers need to consider enrichment as a strategy to build a relationship with the subpopulation of interest. On the basis of an awareness of the disproportionate distribution of the educational and racial or ethnic composition of study populations, researchers must develop strategies to improve their relationship with their participants. Technological barriers have been discussed in technology-based research , but such research has been focused on how to reach those subpopulations to improve their enrollment. We noted the different attrition levels of the subsample of our study participants. Survey researchers need to consider the racial or ethnic and educational level differences within their target population and the impact of these factors on Web-based survey participation.
Moreover, we cannot assume that it is easy for anyone from different demographic groups to complete a Web-based survey simply because they have a computer or a mobile phone and access to the internet. We need to promote the motivation to join a survey and support their completion of the survey. Web-based surveys might possess some advantages such as ease of distribution of the survey, utilization of images, and improvement of confidentially or anonymity. A clear description of the survey (including the study goals and example questions) and some features to encourage the completion of the survey such as images for low literacy groups, friendly reminders, secure access to the survey, and a progress bar might enhance survey completion. Community-based participatory research is considered a principal method for increasing the trust of and partnership with the community . Building trust with communities is a strategy often used to encourage potential participants to engage in Web-based survey research . Researchers might need to work with stakeholders in target communities to understand their needs and goals and to incorporate those items into the research . As one of the main purposes of any research study is to be able to generalize the study results to the overall population through the use of a representative sample, we need to consider targeting underrepresented populations to encourage and promote their participation in a Web-based survey. Finally, we continuously need to make effort to improve eHealth literacy through understanding the users’ interaction with health technologies . Thus, we can help the study participants complete the research tasks, use the health information, and therefore participate in making an impact on health care.
There are several limitations. As this was a secondary data analysis, we did not obtain demographic information (including gender, age, and SES) for those potential participants who only completed screening questions. These demographic factors could influence their motivation and decision to consent to participate and to complete the survey. We did not consider our survey content as a factor influencing the completion rate of the survey; however, some stress and depression measures, which were presented in the early portion of the survey, might have influenced the rate of continuation and completion of the survey. Moreover, most participants were female with young children (84.4%, 221/259), which is a group more likely to participate in a Web-based survey, thus our findings might not apply to males. We could not evaluate literacy level or other community-level characteristics to determine how those characteristics might influence the motivation for survey completion.
Researchers need to understand that there is a significant difference between racial or ethnic groups as well as educational levels in terms of progress in Web-based survey participation. Public health research, especially community-based research, heavily relies on self-report and self-selection based on voluntary participation. Future researchers will need to make the effort to target underrepresented racial or ethnic groups and less educated populations to encourage their participation in Web-based survey research.

Baseball players everywhere need to know how you can recover. The simplest way to try this is usually to view it your training coming from a comprehensive perspective. Here, are a few pointers to assist you to the game.
1. Read watching Everything Baseball. Scan books, check out hitting and pitching lessons videos, see games, other people from coaches and good players.
2. Practicing to achieve perfection. Do your drills daily for at least 5 to 6 days per week. You can vary your routine; however, remember to be developing muscle memory with sufficient reps of your swing and pitching motion.
3. Grab another thing once the season ends. In order to avoid burnout, choose another sport or workout inside the off-season. It’s better than pick something do not know. This will allow you to stay in shape and appease any creativity interests you have due to novelty of the new sport. Once the following baseball season arrives, you’ll find yourself avidly getting excited about playing.
4. Press weights Before It Is Far too late. Do not result in the mistake of waiting to build strength until your junior and final years of high school graduation. Do yourself a favor and begin training in the summertime after your 8th grade year and work out each summer thereafter. This allows one to build a base, plateau, and then, build up to one more plateau. In this manner, once you might be senior, you may be very physically strong and ready to have a very great senior season.
5. Get Lessons. A fantastic instructor can save you time, wasted energy, and ultimately present you with better results. By gaining knowledge through a fantastic instructor right away, you are able to provide the best techniques from the start and avoid bad habits. Once you know the lessons, you are able to practice them and return back only occasionally when you feel a refresher course is needed.
6. Practice using a tee. The basic hitting tee has increase the swing and hitting consistency of several major league players. Study on their example and make use of this tee to make their own you skill hitting for the opposite field and tweak your swing. Doing this along with some waffle ball toss are ideal for removing holes within your swing.
7. Maximize your speed and power. Plyometrics will help develop your speed and explosiveness. Study from an experienced instructor who are able to provide you with a regimen that you could practice several days weekly. If practiced sufficiently, you will notice your speed and power improve. This added boost will continue into other areas of your respective game as you have a whole new found confidence in your baseball abilities.
Every one of these pointers are geared towards causing you to be a top-notch flight athlete because of your final year of high school graduation. By using these pointers you will probably improve your possibility of baseball success.

Jamie draws on years of experience as a professional sailor, sailmaker, and full time cruiser to benefit other sailors, whether you are across the anchorage or across an ocean. For the last few years, he’s worked with a New Zealand sailmaker based in Malaysia, Phil Auger. Together they work with customers to specify and design high quality sails built at China Sail Factory, shipped anywhere in the world.
Do you have questions about your existing sails (or sail-handling, rigging, etc.)? Jamie’s happy to answer questions about sails, without fees or expectations. And even though sailmakers come with big egos, please don’t refer to him as “Excellency”, “Your Grace”, or “Cloth King.” That just complicates things for us on board when it’s his turn to do the dishes.
Do you need new sails? If you need a no-nonsense sailmaker to deliver a good value on the right sail, Jamie would appreciate the opportunity to quote! He’s helped many cruisers get great sails at a good value.
If you’re considering a new sail, Jamie will first want to know about the kind of sailing you expect to do and boat type. Once he’s clear on your priorities, then he can prepare recommended features and specifications- whether you’re working with him, or another loft. Getting a quote is simple, with this information and a few rough rig dimensions.
Jamie works with a Kiwi sailmaker, also an experienced cruiser (and racer!) to produce the design. He typically quotes a few cloth options, and shares an explanation of each. And it’s easy to tweak features and options in the process. If you decide to purchase, then he’ll work with you on measurements with clear instructions and logical forms. With a 50% deposit, the sail is sent to production, and the finished sail can be shipped anywhere in the world.
Sails are produced at China Sail Factory, the largest loft in the world. They only build sails for sailmakers, and they build them exactly how the order is specified. And, they do this very well, so when you spec quality features and materials, like Jamie will, you’ll get a great sail at a reasonable cost. If having sails made at china Sail Factory still makes you nervous, well, it did for Jamie also (a brick and mortar sailmaker from way back!); but he’s been through the process enough to gain full trust in their capabilities.
Jamie’s prices tend to be slightly more than Asian-made retail sailmakers (Lee, Rolly Tasker, etc.) and less than the big name retail sailmakers (North, Doyle), while producing quality that is equal to any sail loft. Of course he cannot provide hands-on service of a local loft, unless you’re anchored near Totem. The flip side is that he doesn’t have any marketing brochures, so you won’t have to wade through a lot of holding-tank filler. Instead he communicates simple and complex information in a way that you can actually understand.
Interested? Whether you have a new sail need, or just some questions, fill out our contact form. That reaches us everywhere, even at sea, and he’ll get back to you.

We are moving forward with our MVP development, and it’s time for another update! Last time we talked about several areas of current activities: network node, supernode, blockchain explorer, testnet, mining, mobile wallet and POS apps, and payment terminal apps. So let’s review the progress in all those areas.
We have done several changes required for supporting the supernode activities as well as protocol changes such as new wallet addresses. GRAFT wallet addresses now start from “G” for mainnet and “T” for testnet, so they could be easily distinguishable from other wallet addresses. Also, we have introduced a new transaction type flag in order to be able to distinguish between different transaction types. For example, a new transaction that is approved instantly by the authorization sample is different from a “standard” slow transaction (which is eventually going to be deprecated).
We have successfully finished the transition of the supernode codebase from Python to C++ – good job, our development team! Essentially, it has been rewritten in C++ from scratch. It took time and efforts, but there are huge benefits of this refactoring: a unified technology stack and generic code reusability. Now both network and supernode are located under the same project in github, so don’t be confused by lack of activities in “supernode” project: it’s been deprecated.
We have started the full implementation of the most important core feature of Graft Network: real time authorization (instant approval). During the PoC phase, real time authorization was not fully implemented, and many core functions were just mocked up. Now we are implementing the real mechanism according to the original design described in the white paper. The optimistic flow is scheduled to be ready for testing by mid December, while the full implementation should be done by the end of the year. It is very heavy lifting from development point of view, but once fully implemented and tested, this feature alone is going to revolutionize crypto payments!
We are actively working on further development and redesign of client applications, which include wallet and point of sale mobile apps as well as payment terminals’ apps for Verifone, Ingenico, Equinox, and AnywhereCommerce. The most recent versions of MVP apps are going to be open for public testing very soon. Stay tuned!
Mining is a key function which is required for a successful network setup. As such it is our goal to provide with a simple and streamlined process on how to mine GRF. Our vision is to provide holistic procedure (turnkey) which can be understood and executed by everyone, including non-technical users.
In order to achieve our goal we are currently testing and documenting the best and easiest processes for miner setup and configuration. Our effort is not limited to written instructions, and we are also planning on providing video guides on how to perform the setup and configuration. To minimize the entry barrier for mining we are also creating a template for cloud mining (AMI/terraform) allowing new users to mine with zero CAPEX investment.
The main testnet is open to public. Now you can run your own network node and supernode and even mine some test GRF coins with CPU minder and run basic transfers. Note that currently we do not accept any support requests for the testnet for two reasons: first, it is not stable, and the versions are changing literally every day, and second, we do not have a designated support team yet, and developers are focused on their primary development tasks so we could meet our very tight deadlines. Thus, please connect to the testnet at your own risk. Nevertheless, we are always open for healthy criticism and happy to receive any feedback and bug reports. You can find information about the testnet connectivity, network node, and CLI wallet setup below. The full supernode setup and configuration instructions will be also published soon.
3. Select at least 2Gb RAM for the Virtual Machine.
It is recommended to arrange 2Gb RAM per CPU core for faster build.
Select “VDI (VirtualBox Disk Image), Dynamically Allocated, Adjust file location (if needed) and select size appropriately. If you set it as e.g. 100Gb it doesn’t mean 100Gb will be allocated immediately – this is just upper limit.
for “-j” param select appropriate number of CPU cores available on your system.
graft-wallet-cli – Graft Blockchain CLI Wallet.
It will try to connect to the local network node daemon, running in testnet mode, ask password for a new wallet, electrum seed language, generate new wallet, and finally open wallet with CLI interface. Invoke help to see available commands. E.g. CPU mining (solo mining) can be started with start_mining command.

Very few things in life are written in stone, but the date of license suspension in a NJ Motor Vehicle Commission notice comes very close to being ‘written in stone’. If you get a letter from the MVC saying that they are going to suspend your license, consult immediately with an experienced criminal defense lawyer. There are often grounds that can be raised to reduce the period of suspension, but the procedure stated in the letter to get a hearing must be completed before the date listed for the suspension to begin. A suspension by the MVC is in addition to any suspension given to you by the Court.
If you have been notified that your driving privileges are being suspended by the NJ MVC, time is critical, consult with an experienced criminal defense lawyer before you decide whether to accept the suspension or request a hearing to fight it. Contact Howard Bailey at 973-982-1200 for a free consultation.
If you use your license on a daily basis to drive a vehicle, and there are no alternative public transportation facilities you can use, discuss these issues with the lawyer you consult with. These types of issues can be used as part of a defense to your license being suspended for the complete period of time listed in your suspension letter.
In a recent case, Howard Bailey was successful in getting a 39-month period of suspension for a fatality that occurred during a traffic accident reduced to a 9-month suspension. In another recent case involving a fatality during a traffic accident, Mr Bailey was able to get a 16-month suspension reduced to a 3-month suspension. By using the facts of the case and additional legal arguments, each client was able to get their privileges restored in a small fraction of the time they were originally going to be suspended.
Is Your NJ Driver’s License Worth Defending from Suspension?
Some of the factors you need to consider are the length of the proposed suspension in the notice you received, your prior convictions in Municipal Court, and any prior notices you received from the MVC regarding your license. Only you can decide what your license is worth to you. If you are successful in getting a hearing before the Motor Vehicle Commission, you should expect that they will still want to suspend your license, even if it is for a reduced period of time. You do not have to accept the reduced period of suspension offered during the hearing, and can request that the case be heard by an Administrative Law Judge. What your license is worth to you, and how far you want to push to protect it is something you need to discuss with an experienced criminal defense lawyer.
Call Howard Bailey at 973-982-1200 for a free consultation when the MVC is about to suspend your driver’s license.

There’s something nostalgic about the vintage look, even when its artificially added to a digital photo. Instagram themes such as Slumber and Valencia, which give that vintage look, are some of the app’s most popular.
There are numerous how-to’s to get the vintage look in both Lightroom and Photoshop. Today we’ll be going over an example of how to achieve it in darktable.
As an example, we’ll use a photo that I took of a classic bike that I own. This is not a particularly good photo (I was shooting in Manual and got the exposure wildly wrong), so we’ll see if it looks any better with a vintage touch in keeping with the age of the bike.
The picture you see above has a boosted exposure (and an overexposed sky) and a corrected white balance. Everything else is the darktable default.
The first thing we’ll do is adjust the tone curve. By raising the lower left part of the curve, we dull the blackest shadows, and reduce the contrast.
The grass is now noticeably less bright.
Old film pictures often had a slight tonal tinge to them, which we can easily add in the split toning module. Use one of the presets (sepia is probably your best bet), or pick your own colours. Because I wasn’t paying attention, I gave the shadows a warm feel, and the highlights a cold blue tint (usually this would be the other way around).
If you select the sepia preset you will probably need to dial down the compression slider, or the saturation, otherwise you will have a very orange photo.
No vintage look would be complete without a slight vingette, which is easily added in darktable.
As we can see, its hard to make a poor picture great, even with editing. However, I think you would have to agree that its an improvement.
And that is one way to create a basic vintage look in darktable.

Of all the colors of the rainbow, yellow isn’t exactly rolling in aesthetic goodwill. It’s tricky to wear, and, depending on your complexion can conjure up a jaundiced effect; gone wrong, the effect can be downright frowsy. All that aside, the shade’s having a hell of a moment, as countless designers proposed head-to-toe looks in every possible permutation of mustard, ochre, goldenrod.
...and then you start to see yellow everywhere.

Keepthinking and UsTwo created Universal Leonardo, the most comprehensive online resource about Leonardo da Vinci. It features an interactive timeline, scientific analysis, narrative trails and lots of online games and activities. Nominated for Webby Award and published by Design Week as well as in the 2007 D&AD book. Used by more than fifteen thousand people every month.
The home page focuses on the timeline, trails, news and other features. The timeline at the top offers quick access throughout the website to every work and life event on the site.
Trails are a way to discover how themes and ideas unfolded in the work of Leonardo, throughout his life. Each trail looks at one angle, represented through works and contextual information.
Each work in a trail tells a part of the story of an idea, or obsession.
We have amazing resources available, including several scientific analysis of the Madonna of the Yarnwinder. We built a dedicated interface to allow exploring what's beneath the surface of the painting.
The educational component of the website was paramount. We designed and developed ten educational activities and games to bring complex content and ideas to younger audiences.
As a "omo sanza lettere" Leonardo wrote all of his texts from right to left, like in a mirror. We recreated the experience as a game.
Another game: build a monster!

During our God Focus time recently at SIL Australia, we have been digging into Psalm 23, noting how active the Good Shepherd is on behalf of His sheep. This gives us all the more reason to be thankful for every good gift that He generously gives. We discussed how Psalm 23 is a great psalm for people who live in transition, like all of us. It is not our location that matters, but rather the presence of our Shepherd who comforts and guides us. As we shared together, we imagined the image of banquet re-contextualised into a joyful family picnic in the midst of turmoil and upheaval. What a beautiful image!
In this Easter season, we can trace the imagery of the shepherd down the one thousand years from David and Psalm 23 and to the coming of Jesus, the Good Shepherd. For example, Ezekiel 34 rebukes bad shepherds and the Lord promises that He would Himself be the Shepherd of His people. The Shepherd imagery continues through Isaiah (cf. Isaiah 40; 56; 63), Jeremiah (cf. Jeremiah 3; 23; 31) and Zechariah (cf. Zechariah 9-11). Finally, in John 10:11, Jesus declares, “I am the Good Shepherd!”. John presents Jesus as the great Shepherd come to gather all the lost sheep (of Israel and the nations) into one flock; the new community of the people of God.
If you are living in transition, or if you need comfort or guidance, we pray that our Good Shepherd will indeed be your place of security and that His goodness and mercy will pursue you every day. We recommend exploring the image of the Good Shepherd as a rich exercise for this Easter season in order to deepen your faith and appreciation of the many layers of the Scriptures.
We thank God for you and pray that the God of peace – who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, will equip you with all you need for doing His will. May He produce in you, through the power of Jesus Christ, every good thing that is pleasing to Him (Hebrews 13:20-21).

Along with new weapons, gadgets and weapons, players will come face to face with a set of new enemies not seen in Dishonored 2. No specifics on what these will be quite yet, although the website teases new enemies Envisioned, Sisters of the Ocular Order and Clockwork Soldiers. Also, new side missions will be available to play.
Dishonored 2: Death of the Outsider will be released on September 15 of this year on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC for $29.99 Pre-order details are available on the Dishonored 2 official website. Also, if you want to see the introduction to the story, you can watch the official Dishonored 2: Death of the Outsider E3 trailer here.
“Beyond the northern mountains, the borderlands of the Banuk tribe challenge all who dare enter to survive the extremes. But now this frozen wilderness harbors a new threat, and for Aloy, a new mystery – one she’s determined to solve.
The trailer played at E3 shows that Aloy, Horizon Zero Dawn‘s protagonist, must face a new beast in order to explore the mountain and find out answers. Not much has been teased about what the DLC will include besides what is mentioned in the story teaser. It will be released sometime in 2017.

This question and answer section is provided as a representation of questions our law firm receives and may not be relevant to your specific case. Please contact our office for future information.
Can I adopt my stepchild?
if the biological parent does not agree to it.
If my new spouse adopts my children, will we still receive support for the child?
No. An adoption means that legally all ties are cut with the previous parent.
Why would someone use a prenuptial agreement?
want to protect in the event of a future divorce or death.
What types of things are covered in a prenuptial agreement?
Prenupts can cover any property divisions, debts and spousal support (alimony), however it may not cover custody or child support issues.
If I have children from a previous marriage should I have a prenuptial agreement if I marry again?
That is definitely something to think about because you may want to protect their financial interests in the event of your death.
Can I get full custody of my children?
parents sharing in the raising of the child.
How is child support set up?
appropriate amount and division between parents as well as any other necessary expenses.
Can I go back to court to change my parenting schedule or child support?
justification for a change, and this is not easy to prove. Child support is normally only changed if there is an increase or decrease over 15% of a party’s income, or some major change in the child’s needs.

Ive been having strange problems on the server such as not being able to use _ in tag name and there are no weapons/hands in my screen when the map starts. Just seeing if its only for me or if others are having the same problem?
The missing _ is annoying yes. I can ask some guys in the swat community if they know how to solve the problem. Its just an .ini problem imo. And no, i dont have the problem with no weapon/hands. Is it every time?
I thought it was a character problem, but when i changed the allowable name character file to add the _ as an allowable character, it became a server mismatch issue.
I don't know if now that we have the redirect functioning if it would send the mismatched file to the client or not.
What do you think, WIZ?
Possibly, but it depends on the content of that file. Does it contain personalised data such as player name?
The way I fix name is I type name SAS_SSM_Nick in console. That's quicker for me than to open up settings. For the weapon problem, I don't realy know SWAT settings but there might be an option to show your weapon in the settings.
Thanks for underscore advice, I know Ive seen others a while ago with same problem and I do kinda remember hearing about the .ini file changes so I'll check that out..
Nvm, spoke too soon..once I went to the next map, I ran into the same problem..It said: Note: Some of your weapons have been replaced by server. I was able to run around but could do nohing more than open doors, couldnt shout or even punch, and had no weaps/hands again. :?
really weird, I recommend to reinstall the game. Pretty sure this is not a server issue.
don't ask me why, but some servers set up with "forcenoweapons" running.
they run around with handcuffs equipped, which allows them to run around like morons punching suspects to get them to comply.
I don't know why you would want to play on such a server, but if you do, just equip your flexcuffs and have at it.
Does that mod come with a brass knuckle?
I have D2D version and I don't have any problems with it.
What operating system are you guys running?
I also have the direct2drive one, aside from the fact that my pc is borked and it takes an average of 40 mins to load the game I have no problems.
Oh, and I had no problems with the version when my pc was functioning normally.
But most ppl can play fine on the pg.
Right guys, i think i may have a solution for you.
What are the restriction settings for the swat server atm?
I don't know how to do restrictions, so I don't think there are any.
I know some people have had no weapons at times, but I don't think the replacement settings are active. I'll have a look again.
Does anyone know what to look for?
Naw sorry I dont know much about s4 server settings, but I did find a S4 site/forums http://www.tacticalgamer.com .. might have some posts there about server problems.
And yeah Im running Windows XP 2002 Home Ed. and Ive never had the no weaps/hands issue on any other server before, just some slow loading at times like you said Nick.
3.open the SwatGame.ENG file, inside you must find this line:(its almost at the beginning of the file) DefaultMPName= ,now write your name after the equal symbol.
this is a possible fix i found on another site for our underscore problem, but I'm not sure if it would just cause file mismatches or not.
Unfortunatly the same as b4 here.
For me I found a fix to the underscore problem, all I do is once Im in the server, goto settings and goto the tab where you can modify your user name, and then without changing anything in your info, exit settings mode and my tags are back to normal.
So what your "NoWeaponInHand" problem is solved Ranger?

There are multiple services providers in the industry today, ranging from fabricators, technicians, toilet suppliers and many such services which are often provided under one roof. Depending on your requirement one can alter or add the services provided. Some of the major factors one has to consider while selecting a service provider is the cost towards it. While you are looking for the right service provider here are a few important services that prove whether your service provider is a perfect one.
If at all you are looking for a household requirement then the most essential and important thing you will have to look for is the company’s toilet suppliers. The brands that they cater to and the plumbing services that are accompanied with it. Make sure they have reputed suppliers and also look into their work portfolio.
When deciding upon the suppliers you can also check if the company has tie-ups with toilet manufacturers as well. A list of reputed brands is always available with your service provider thus depending on various factors like availability, cost added advantages one can decide upon either of the two.
When a company looks for infrastructure requirements or to expand their horizons, it requires a lot of research at the same time it also puts pressure on the service provider to be willing to fulfill all the requirements. While a lot of companies provide infrastructure services which are environmental friendly given to the need of the hour, here are some basic things that can be essential when seeking service providers for corporate infrastructure. PEB structures i.e. Pre-Engineered building structures are in demand these days. A PEB structure as the name suggests is already fabricated structures of steel. The steel structure is broadly classified into three sections namely primary framing, secondary framing, and roof sheeting. These systems are fabricated at the factory and then carried to the actual sites. Bolted connections are used and the assembly is easy and hassle-free.
Sandwich panel also form an important part of your commercial as well as household requirement these days. These panels are mostly made up of insulation core bound between two color coated sheets. They are rigid and provide thermal insulation along with other added benefits thus making them a preferred choice these days. Given to their durability, they are used in factories, airport terminals, shopping centers, and many more places.
Conclusion: Thus, when selecting the right service provider for your needs one can check if the company has a renowned toilet supplier for their household infrastructure needs as a must. While commercial sites seek for an environmental friendly service, which can be cost effective they can also check for Porta Cabins to suffice to their on-site needs. If a company requires a temporary office facility these cabins serve the best. They have all the amenities and can be transported to different locations as and when required.

AUSTIN, (AP) — Ted Cruz’s campaign has formally filed to put his name on his home state’s March 1 presidential primary ballot.
Cruz’s wife, Heidi, turned in the necessary paperwork and a $5,000 check at Texas Republican Party headquarters in Austin on Thursday.
She said her husband is building support nationwide, not just focusing on early states like Iowa: “We have a campaign strategy that’s built to last.” That drew cheers from a small group of supporters waving “Cruz 2016” signs.
Texas is the largest of a string of states holding Republican primaries on “Super Tuesday” next year.

In essence the island of Manhattan has a general north-south orientation and a street grid established in 1811 as the city was growing up the island. At four points in the year the rising or setting sun aligns with our east/west streets framing good old sol in our building canyons. Today is a sunrise Manhattanhenge so you may be reading this too late to catch the phenomenon. So write down May 28 in your date book now because that is the next “sunset” version. You have more time to get your camera ready, it is usually more spectacular (and for several days after) and you have time to plan your trip here if you don’t live here.
2018 will include the 20th anniversary of my move to this great city. This week and throughout the year I will be highlighting New York City topics in my blog.

It’s becoming quite a family affair here in the shop as our two eldest boys have decided to join us!
Elliot, who is 27, will be spending time in the workshop beside his dad. He is not unfamiliar as he’s sat beside him from a young age, practising on old bits of silver. He will also be working alongside the other goldsmiths in the repair workshop and working on the CAD (Computer Aided Design) with Nick.
Elliot graduated from University with a degree in cinematography so expect to see some exciting videos!
Max has just completed his GCSEs and will be working in the shop with me and the girls! He will also be with John Davey behind the scenes, soaking up his knowledge of watches, and with Andy and Paula on a Saturday. Max will be going off to Hartlepool Sixth Form in September to persue his love of performing arts, so watch out for yet another rising star from Hartlepool.

(8) THIS SECTION DOES NOT APPLY TO AN INDIVIDUAL WHO CARRIES, 19 POSSESSES, OR TRANSPORTS A PISTOL IF ALL OF THE FOLLOWING 20 CONDITIONS ARE MET: 21 (A) THE INDIVIDUAL IS NOT OTHERWISE PROHIBITED FROM POSSESSING 22 A PISTOL. 23 (B) THE INDIVIDUAL IS AT LEAST 21 YEARS OF AGE.
So if you are using your gun legally and over the age of 21 you would be exempt from acquiring or registering your pistol with the state. Under 21 then you still need to register.
You would still be able to register your gun with the state if you so choose. While many of us would never do so there is a few reasons to do so. For example I would want my AR-15 pistol to be clearly registered as a pistol with the state should police give me an issue while using it as a truck concealed weapon for example.
Enacting section 1. Sections 223, 227, 227a, 227c, 227d, 228, 7 231, 231a, 232a, and 234d of the Michigan penal code, 1931 PA 328, 8 MCL 750.223, 750.227, 750.227a, 750.227c, 750.227d, 750.228, 9 750.231, 750.231a, 750.232a, and 750.234d, are repealed.
This eliminates the requirement to have a CPL but still allows for issuing CPL. So unlike Vermont, Michigan citizens who so wish, can obtain a license to carry and receive reciprocity. Whose who do not and are over the age of 21 would legally be able to purchase and carry concealed or open without a permit. It removes the restriction on permit-less open carry in places that sell alcohol and such as well.
One thing it does lack however is any change to carry on school grounds. This legislation was not presented to gun groups prior to it being released and as such there is still much scrambling to see how this package of 7 bills affects gun rights. The initial look however is that this is amounts to permit-less purchase and carry either open or concealed in non pistol free zones.
While MCRGO has shared this on their Facebook page but has made no official support for the legislation at this time it is under current review and an official stance is expected in the future.
MGO has shared this on their Facebook page but has made no official support for the legislation at this time it is under current review and an official stance is expected in the next few days.
MOC (updated below) are still reviewing this. We will update the post as new comments are released.
MOC is still looking into the fine details of Representative Gamrat’s bills, but so far we are very pleased at what we are finding. We believe these bills would be a tremendous step forward for Michigan gun owners and carriers.
wish to have the license and receive reciprocity from other states.
Purchase permit no longer required to purchase of a firearms for those over 21 years of age.
possessing a firearm without a CPL or permission.

Sharon Williams, along with a group of her family and friends, has served meals at Calvary since 2012 and now serves on the 2nd Saturday of each month. Sharon’s consistent meal service once per month benefits Calvary both because it’s valuable to have consistency in scheduling, but more importantly because women who live at Calvary love to see familiar faces month after month.
Sharon’s group’s consistency is appreciated by Calvary residents and staff alike, and we’re proud to highlight her group as this month’s volunteer spotlight. Get to know more about Sharon’s story below.
Originally I’m from Albany, Georgia.
I love to serve the women dinner.
I called around to find a shelter to serve women.
I love reaching out to others. I have a passion for helping anyone who’s going through difficult times.
I love the warm welcome I get not only from the ladies but also the staff, especially Donald.
My most memorable moment at Calvary was when we gave each lady a rose for Mother’s day.
How open the women are and how appreciative they are.
I would tell them what a wonderful experience it would be.

The Micro-Beam Radiation Therapy (MRT) is a promising newly emerged cancer treatment currently under development at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France. Several safety requirements must be complied with, prior to the human clinical trials of the MRT such as the ability to send a signal to the emergency beam shutter in case of any beam anomalies, in order to avoid exposing the patient to excess radiation. This will require a beam monitor that can work under the demanding operating conditions of the MRT. A good candidate for this application is a silicon strip detector. A novel device layout has been proposed and numerical simulations were performed to carry out the optimisation of design and fabrication at SINTEF MiNaLab, Oslo, Norway. Simulation results and preliminary electrical measurements on wafer level are reported and discussed.

Hello, Just started playing cod2 what tdm server you suggest?
SPARTA servers have a fair amount of hackers on them (regularly), I'd go for [UdSSR] servers.
@darl1Ng cod4 community coming back to cod2?
I still wait for someone to give me few hackers-free servers.
Love to play occasional rifle DM, so if there's any hidden servers out there - feel free to link me them.

Artisans at work in the Museum of Science and Industry will provide an up-close look at glassmaking in this exhibition running through Sept. 1. "The Glass Experience" delves into the science and skill in glass-making, while also showcasing more than 20 new pieces from sculptor Dale Chihuly. Purchase a ticket to enter the exhibit at a specified time.
A Depression-era tale, "Boneyard Prayer" uses various forms of puppetry and shadow images to tell the story of one man's life and redemption, while exploring themes of sorrow and salvation. This new Redmoon Theater production may not be suitable for children. Through May 11.
This event at Symphony Center offers music from some of the finest Celtic artists in Chicago and throughout the world and includes the North American premiere of works by Irish composer Shaun Davey. Actor John Mahoney narrates as the Metropolis Symphony Orchestra, Old St. Patrick's Concert Choir, Trinity Irish Dance Company and Midlothian Scottish Pipe & Drum Band perform.
Since his Modern Lovers days, Mr. Richman has veered into several music genres and developed a cult following with his quirky, innocent-sounding lyrics that also feature a few languages. Those not familiar with his most recent solo work may remember him as the singer in the film "There's Something About Mary." He performs with Vic Chesnutt at the Abbey Pub.
The secret formula will be used once again to dye the Chicago River green in honor of St. Patrick's Day. The river dying starts at 10:45 a.m., just before the celebrating kicks off for the annual downtown parade.
Bike on quiet secondary roads and complete loops of 16, 20 or 36 miles through Northeast Illinois. There is no pre-registration for the event, which is sponsored by the Wheeling Wheelman and kicks off from Wauconda High School. The course is open until 1 p.m.
If biking is not your thing and you don't want to watch the river being dyed green again, mark St. Patrick's Day weekend with a 5k run/walk through Lincoln Park. There's also a Leprechaun Leap for kids 10 and under.
Focusing on the photographic works of this pop and conceptual artist, the exhibition presents 115 prints, some of which have never been seen. On loan from the Whitney Museum of American Art, the show also includes works from the Art Institute's collection of Mr. Ruscha's photographs. Through June 1. Pictured above: "Flagstaff, Arizona, 1962," from the series "Twenty-Six Gasoline Stations, 1963."

Color photographs, rock samples, 3-D models and exploratory equipment tell the story of a trip to unravel the mysteries of underwater mountains near the North Pole. Through July 6.
Searching for music the whole family can enjoy? Grammy Award winner Dan Zanes and Friends deliver with a folksy blend of fun children's songs that are danceable and likable. Mr. Zanes plays two shows at the Harris Theater.
Chef Paul Virant leads a hands-on cooking class that offers a fresh take on the traditional Easter meal. Participants also will take part in a three-course meal with the chef, complete with wine pairings.
"Painters to the King: Velazquez and Goya"
Mordine & Company Dance Theater marks the start of its 40th anniversary season with "Quest," a three-part work detailing the spiritual journey of six people exploring an unknown world. Chicago composer and cellist Alison Chesley, formerly of Poi Dog Pondering, provides the musical backdrop during this evening at the Dance Center of Columbia College Chicago.
"Do We Dare Squander Chicago's Great Architectural Heritage?"
With architectural artifacts from key Chicago buildings, the Chicago Architecture Foundation outlines the role historic preservation has played in the city's evolution. The exhibition also includes a rare film of the demolition of Adler and Sullivan's Chicago Stock Exchange, as well as stories about preservationists who have taken up the causes of beloved buildings.

i liked this post, thanks.
try some David Richo before you quit though: “How to be an Adult in Relationships.” it’s good.
Great post! I had the same dating thing going on, Juliet. Because I’m so broken I’m a magnet for the wrong guys, so I’ve taken a healing sabbatical.
I was so afraid to enter the dating scene. My ex was not gay, but he turned out to be a thieving bigamist (I was with this man since we were teenagers). I started dating fairly soon and I was certainly broken beyond hiding at the time. However, I was able to go into the encounters with no expectations other than learning something from each date. It took me out of the realm of “good” or bad,” it took the focus off of me and my “performance,” and it meant that I always came away with a little more knowledge and understanding than I had before. I learned about men, relationships, myself, and countless hobbies and interests. All of those lessons serve me well regardless of if he was into to me or not. Good luck!
I supplemented my social life with on-line dating for several years to no avail. There were times when I thought something was wrong with me because of the men that I continued to run into–little to no education/ morals, had kids, and just a bunch of other characteristics that I find undesirable in a mate. To make a long story short, I decided to get offline for the purposes of dating before August 20 of this year regardless of who I met or didn’t meet. Around August 10, quality men seemed to be falling out of the sky. We would have a conversation and/or go out and I’d discover glaring character/personality flaws. For example, the last guy from on line was passive aggressive–angerous type of mate or even friend to have. I am convinced that the men falling out of the sky thing was Satan trying to keep me away from God’s plan for me by distracting me with men who were seemingly desirable mates. I stuck with my plan to end all of my online subscriptions by 8/20, and in that time, I have met several guys, two of which are quality men with no glaring personality disorders. The one that I am fairly interested in, I met at my gym, and we are going out next weekend. It’s an amazing feeling to actually be pursued by a physically fit and tall guy with no kids, degreed, gainfully employed, and who seems to have taken a genuine interest in me.
My point is that while on-line dating works for some, it doesn’t work for everyone…perhaps you should go ahead with your plan to get offline and go out and and meet guys. And that thick emotional callous that you spoke of started to form around my heart too. However, I can honestly say that my whole outlook on dating has changed just in the brief time that i removed my self from online dating sites.
Whatever you decide, I hope it brings you happiness!
The coldest hour on a winters night is just before dawn. One of the things, that being single for an extended period of time, and at a time when we feel hurt or betrayed and in need of comfort, does teach us is to value and hold the one that we eventually find.
Is really just a permutation of the “I am a total weirdo and no one wants to stick around” Because the sinister thought behind this line of reasoning is that there is a way to be right and a way to be wrong. I’m pretty sure I have said this before but I will say it again, if they can’t take your blog they can’t deal with you. So good riddens of them. Enjoy the single life, soon enough you will have to put up with someone that snores, picks his nose, farts loudly and doesn’t listen to a word you say because that’s what all men do, so there.

Apart from the obvious enhancement to the appearance of a BMW, another couple of reasons why you should consider upgrading your stock BMW rims are because of the improvements in handling and performance.
The first custom wheels were developed more than 50 years ago and were made from magnesium which made them a lot lighter as compared to steel made wheels. This helped in enhancing the performance and reduced race lap times. They weren’t too suitable for regular day to day driving though since they were brittle and could break easily as compared to steel wheels.
Oxidation also meant that these wheels required constant polishing and cleaning. This is why manufacturers decided to look for an alternative material to manufacture custom wheels which is when they settled on aluminum.
The reduced weight is a very important element as far as the custom wheels are concerned. It allows for improved acceleration as well as braking and can improve the overall handling of a vehicle. It basically allows for a better ride overall.
You will even see significant benefits as far as fuel economy is concerned. Just ensure you don’t get wheels which are too much bigger than the ones that came with your BMW or it may have more of a negative effect overall in your new rim investment. You do not want to regress in life, you want to move forward.
There is nothing that radiates style more than cool 18 inch chrome rims for your BMW. They can add a touch of class to almost any vehicle. And there is no better place for you to purchase such rims than USARIM. Irrespective of whether you have a 3 series, M3, or Z3 model BMW, you will find chrome rims for it here. Even if chrome isn’t your thing because they can be too shiny and perhaps you have seen Transformers 1 and 2 so many times that all that chrome on Megatron has wore you out, no worries, you have other options.
USARIM has a wide range for you to choose from that look just as majestic as chrome.

A some point in your life you will become involved in a project that doesn’t work out. While mostly in this blog, I try and keep an upbeat atmosphere, with a combination of best practices that will help us have success or “save” a project. However, there are times when you just have to call it quits and move on to something else.
Making these decisions can be very painful, as none of likes to fail. However, there comes a point when you cannot stay involved in a project or situation that is eating away at your core. When our integrity, beliefs and standards are compromised beyond our comfort level it is time to call it quits.
While I have been fortunate in most of my work experience for most of my life, there have been times when you are involved in project that just feels plain wrong. Here are some of my pain checkpoints may cause me to bail or avoid an assignment.

Ariana Grande kicked off her Sweetener tour with a tribute to her late ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller.
Mac Miller passed away in September of last year and, while he and Ariana were no longer in a relationship, Mac's death hit her particularly hard considering the pair had a close friendship.
Now, Ariana has opted to kick off her brand new Sweetener World Tour with a really lovely tribute to the late rapper.
The first gig took place in Times Union Center in Albany, New York, with fans reporting that Mac Miller's music was played to fans while they waited for the concert to begin.

Arsenal currently have four strikers playing in the first team. Everton has been linked with three of them. The most recent link with an Arsenal striker involves Lucas Perez, a player that Arsene Wenger purchased but apparently have no plans for him, which looks absurd as the player impressed when given the opportunity last season.
Bids from as many as 7 clubs gone in for Perez – Depor & Newcastle as well as Everton, Bayer Leverkusen, Valencia, Levante & Galatasaray.
Lucas Perez, Deportivo 15-16. Good all-around output in the stats. Pacey striker, and a good finisher on the break.
In 136 Champions League minutes last season, Perez scored 3 goals and 2 assists, and bagged a Premier League goal even though Wenger spread his 265 league minutes across ten appearances (one start).
Being originally from A Coruna, the player probably wants to go home and return to Deportivo, but if he doesn’t, he’s good enough to start for Everton as it is currently made up.

I heard Romesh Gunsekera on the BBC’s World Book Club and was tremendously impressed by his unassuming wisdom rerf ability to share his knowledge about fine writing. The quiet rhythms of Ranjan Salgado’s bachelor life and Triton’s kitchen are so satisfying that the usual readerly appetite for human conflict seems, in this context, a corrupt one.
Triton takes note of the developments with a keen observing eye. In blissful ignorance it is completely beautiful; unruffled until its last moment, until it is too late.

There are rumours of political fissures around the island, but they are veiled teef the douceurs of civilised conversation taking place in the foreground. The eponymous reef—itself bleaching slowly into obscurity—furnishes an apt metaphor.
Mr Salgado is a marine biologist with an obsessive interest in all things related to the ocean that encircles the island paradise — in particular the nature, formation and fragility of the coral reef. So, it’s a lightweight book, a crisp and shimmering snowflake of a story that opens a channel for empathy, not solidarity. The bit about how earth, people, wounds, salt were related to water. Over perhaps ten years Triton becomes indispensable to Mister Salgado and when, some time in the 70s, mounting Tamil terrorism forces Mister Salgado into exile, there is no question but that Triton, by now attending to all of Mister Salgado’s domestic needs, will go with him.
I expected to learn more about Sri Lanka’s political changes, but details were skimpy. No fear of the eagle that would swoop down on it one day and rip its yellow feathers.
This is wholly original, very ambitious language, and it is often, like the descriptions, exquisite. Hence, I can’t give 5 stars.
This admixed delight and disgust is perhaps not unintended. Triton stayed in London, realizing that deep down he had always wanted to be on his own. Triton is a character of gentle innocence.

Suddenly everything becomes possible and the whole world, that before seemed slowly to be coming apart at the seams, pulls feef. The story relies less on Naipaul-like telling detail than on the nostalgia, the regret that the prose captures in structure as well as subject, a careful progression of guneseoera described venues, like photographs of the past, a succession of tableaux more than a sequence of dramatic scenes.

Takeaway: Activated carbon filters capture odor-causing vapors and take them out of circulation. Considering using these filters in your growroom? Here's what you need to know.
Activated carbon filters are widely used to reduce odors and control emissions from greenhouses and other growing operations. The ambient air is circulated through the activated carbon filter and returned to the greenhouse or discharged outside.
Understanding the basic guidelines of how activated carbon filters work will help growers use the technology with greater reliability and lower overall cost.
For starters, activated carbon is basically a sponge that captures odor-causing vapors and takes them out of circulation. The level of odor-causing chemicals is lowered and thus the odor, which is the nose’s detection and quantification of the presence of non-air molecules, is reduced.
At some level, called the odor threshold, a typical nose cannot detect the presence of the odor compound in the air and the odor is considered absent, although the chemical is likely still there at a reduced level. This can be a problem, since the slightest increase in the level of the odor compound in the air brings it above the odor threshold and suddenly the odor is detected.
Furthermore, smelling most odors leads to odor fatigue, where the nose’s sensitivity decreases with extended exposure. Someone entering the room can clearly smell the odor, but the person who has been there for a while cannot.
If you want to check for the presence of an odor in a grow space, you must leave and breathe some fresh air for long enough to clear the background sensitivity of your nose to the odor you are checking for.
Activated carbon works by a phenomenon called adsorption, where the odor compound is trapped inside the activated carbon and retained, but the material doing the adsorption does not change size. Adsorption differs from absorption, which also removes things, but the result is swelling.
Both adsorption and absorption media have fixed capacities, meaning they hold just so much, since they are storing the material removed from the air, not destroying it.
It is easier to tell what is going on with absorption, since the size increase equals the amount of material removed; with absorption, there is a weight gain, but it is hard to measure and we need to use other means to gauge the remaining life of a carbon filter.
Activated carbon removes odors by offering the odor-causing compound a more attractive place to reside than circulating in the air. The adsorbed state—when the odor compound leaves the air and gets retained inside the activated carbon—is called a lower-energy state and it is as if the molecule falls into a hole and cannot get out.
New activated carbon has lots of unoccupied holes and virtually every compound that passes through falls in a hole and is retained.
Over time, the empty holes fill up. The molecules that are adsorbed with higher energy, sort of like weighing more, can displace the lower-energy molecules that are less tightly held, leading to molecular musical chairs.
This phenomenon, called displacement, can basically drive one crazy, since odors seem to come out of nowhere when a lightly adsorbed odor compound is knocked off the carbon filter by a heavier compound, whether that compound smells or not. There is no way to program activated carbon to take out one compound and leave the rest alone.
The technical term for the first time an adsorbable compound is sensed at the exit of a carbon filter is called breakthrough and when the filter is full, this is called saturation. When it comes to odors, and especially because of odor fatigue, these benchmarks are in the eye—or nose, I guess—of the beholder.
How Much Can a Carbon Filter Hold?
Activated carbon filters are a bit like oil filters on a car—they remove a certain percentage each time through the filter until they get full, at which point they remove essentially nothing. Depending on the design of the filter, how fast air is passing through it, what is in the air and many other factors, the odor of the exiting air is determined.
The end of the filter’s usable life is the point where the amount of odor removed each time through the filter is too little to justify continued operation, at which point the carbon filter should be replaced.
"Ultimately, the capacity in an activated carbon filter is determined by how much carbon there is and the quality of that carbon."
The amount of odor removed by the filter is the difference between the entering level of odor compound and the level exiting. A lot of removal occurs after breakthrough and after the odor threshold is exceeded. The activated carbon filter continues to remove a portion of the odor compound all the way to saturation.
How Long Do Carbon Filters Last?
Depending on the acceptable level of odor in the greenhouse or exiting air, it may be necessary to take a carbon filter offline well before saturation is reached. Filter manufacturers know this and strive to supply filters that approach the ideal filter performance.
The sharper breakthrough and the more vertical the rise, the easier it is to use the entire capacity of the activated carbon filter. In general, the slower the flow rate through the filter, the closer the filter will operate to the limit of ideal performance.
Thus, if odor is exiting the filter above the acceptable level, the recommended strategy is to slow the flow rate thorough a filter (using a fan speed controller) to cause the exiting concentration of odor compound to decrease to below the acceptable level.
Over the life of the filter, a series of flow reductions will allow the largest total amount of odor to be removed while maintaining an acceptable odor level in the growing space.
Ultimately, the capacity in an activated carbon filter is determined by how much carbon there is and the quality of that carbon. It is relatively easy to make an activated carbon filter that looks good right out of the blocks—all the available holes are empty and they grab the first thing they encounter, but the ultimate value of an activated carbon filter is how long it provides ongoing improvement of the air passing through it.
Activated carbon quality is like octane in gasoline; you can definitely pack more of it into a given amount of weight or space. Activated carbon quality is determined on a weight basis, per pound of material, through a number of tests, such as iodine number, BET surface area and butane activity.
Activated carbons differ in density, or how much weight per unit volume. Thus, one can have a really high capacity (like octane) times a really low density (like popcorn), and one ends up with much less in the tank, so to speak.
When selecting an activated carbon filter to purchase, look for quality measurements, which go by names like CTC number, iodine number, butane activity and BET surface area.
Note that different labels use different measures and how much of one equals how little of another is application specific. Truth be told, most of the metrics measure the wrong thing, but it is true that more is better, no matter what is counted.
How Much Carbon Is in the Filter?
The next stop is how much carbon is in the filter: too little of a good thing is, frankly, too little. On the label, carbon may be listed in either weight or volume. If the quality is in units of weight, one must hope that the quantity number is in similar units, or you know nothing.
For example, simply stating that 10 gal. of some number of good stuff per ounce means you are lost if you don’t know the density (ounces per volume). If the calculation has a favorable answer, it will be on the label.
The volume available for activated carbon is how much media the filter will contain, but it is basically the weight of that media that matters. Weight is either how much the filter holds in activated carbon, or the available volume times the density or specific gravity of the carbon.
The specific gravity—the ratio of the weight of a volume of carbon compared to the weight of the same volume of water—is a good indication of quality: the higher the specific gravity, the better.
Good carbons have a specific gravity of 0.45 to 0.55. Specific gravity is easy to measure, just fill a container with the activated carbon, weigh it, then fill the same container with water and weigh that. The ratio of the two weights is the specific gravity.
What Does It All Mean for Growers?
At the end of the day, for a given amount of activated carbon of a given quality, there are few tricks that will make any difference. The flow rate through the filter should be adjusted to provide an acceptable level of odor exiting the filter, and being comfortably below that flow rate is better.
Having more filters is better since they help each other keep the odor level below the acceptable level. Activated carbon does not go bad over time and there is no clever way to use it up faster that leads to increased capacity.
Read More: Your Grow Room Stinks. Now What?
When one is buying an activated carbon filter, one is basically buying a certain amount of odor removal capacity and that capacity is directly related to the quality and quantity of activated carbon in the filter, not all the bells and whistles.

Showing no signs of dilution in the rules governing the controversial National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC), Union Home Minister P Chidambaram on Friday wrote to chief ministers (CMs) of 10 states to keep the issue above party politics.
Chidambaram in his letter to the CMs said that power to arrest and search was “bare minimum” essential for the anti-terror organisation. This provision has come under strong criticism from the non-Congress ruled states on the ground that it would infringe on the state’s rights.
Chidambaram, who has written identical letters to the CMs opposing this clause, said he has asked Home Secretary R K Singh to convene a meeting of state police chiefs and heads of anti-terror agencies.
Chidambaram, however, rejected the charge that NCTC infringed on the rights of the states and said the agency derives its powers from the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act of 1967 that was amended in 2008. “When the Bill was introduced in December 2008 to amend the Act, it was passed by both houses of Parliament. There was no demur or opposition,” he said in the letter.
Chief ministers of Bihar, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Tamil Nadu, Tripura and West Bengal had written to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh charging that certain provisions of NCTC had trampled on the powers of the states.
Singh wrote back to them on Thursday saying he has asked the home minister to address their concerns. Chidambaram’s letter comes a day after the PM wrote to the agitated CMs.
“The powers conferred under Section 43(A) of the Act must be read with the duty under Section 43 (B) to produce the person or article without unnecessary delay before the nearest police station (which will be under the state government), and the SHO of the police station will take further action in accordance with the provisions of the CrPC,” he said.

See that cute little boy and girl? They are hand drawn by my niece and she’s had them made into stickers!!! Aren’t they adorable?! She recently launched an Etsy shop and she’d love for you to pop over and browse around if you’d like! The sushi stickers in some of my other pictures are from her as well.
Bring on the pens and pencils and markers!
No. 1…….. I love my Zig Calligraphy markers.
I have a metallic set and a set of primary colors.
They are double-tipped, which is the-next-best-thing-since-sliced-bread, naturally. 😉 I do love that they have a broader end and a smaller tip.
No. 2…….. This Micron set of markers are a fine line set varying from .20mm to .50mm. They are great for calligraphy practice or addressing envelopes.
I’ve long loved my set of Prismacolor markers! They are double-tipped too, with a fine end and a broad end.
We were never fond of colored pencils until we found Prismacolor! They are the bomb! We ridded our home of all other colored pencils and haven’t looked back. They aren’t cheap, but they’re worth it! My kiddos used them so much for school and coloring projects. I have some I use with my favorite coloring books.
No. 5 and 6…….. Pens and Highlighters from The Daily Grace Co!
I love these so much! They definitely are high on my list of favorites.
I don’t know how to explain the highlighter exactly. They are somewhat of a solid gel and they don’t bleed through your page. They’re awesome-possum and I love all the colors and the good word reminders on each one of who we are in Christ. I like to keep a few of these pens and highlighters around to use as gifts.
You can shop their pens and highlighters right here.
If you are seriously interested in purchasing pens from The Daily Grace Co, keep an eye out………they run sales pretty often and generally offer free shipping with $60 orders. Oh, and they have Bible studies and journals and beautiful mugs along with their really awesome pens!
There’s a new set of pens at the Daily Grace Co. right here that I think look really fun!
I picked this set up on a whim several years and totally fell for them! They say ultra fine point on them. I’ve loved them for lettering, used them in my Bible, and again, for addressing envelopes and cards!
This simple set are fine points and I’ve used them a good bit in my Handlettering for Relaxation book.
No. 10……. These Uniball markers I ordered from Amazon last year and promptly fell in love with them. Especially with the gold one!
They’re a gel pen and I very much like the look of the lettering when using these. I haven’t used the white one much and I forget that I have it, but it would be perfect for black paper and envelopes.
If you like reading and books and pens and journals, you might enjoy popping over to the Modern Mrs. Darcy’s shop and checking out her accessory set. It includes a tin of book darts and a variety of her favorite pens!
A Basket of Pens and Pencils and Markers, Oh My!
How fun! What a neat collection! I’d love to see all your coloring books. I have several and I think they are fun. I think I counted ten the other day because I thought they might make a fun Ten on Tuesday post! 🙂 Do you have a very favorite brand of pen or markers? Or do you use certain ones for certain things?
How fun that you have a hobby you and your daughter and granddaughter all love!
How super fun that you’ve won giveaways for coloring books, pencils and markers! I’ve entered some, but haven’t won so far! I enjoy giveaways too! Both entering them and offering them here on my blog.
I would love to see pics of your coloring books and I’m going to check out some of the pen brands you mentioned. Thanks!!
I like Sharpies too and they do have lots of fun colors!

How did the boy from Parramatta land in the famous art school in East Sydney?
So that was where I started, at fifteen sitting the (National Art School) entrance test and I was accepted into the evening classes. With this, I landed a job at the first place I tried which was J. Walter Thompson – a big advertising agency.
It was an amazing experience - I learned standards by doing things again. … It was a discipline.
I also learned from working with the layout artists. A sheet of words was the basis of the whole campaign - and they would have to visualize it. I watched the way these guys generated images. Start off with a small core - a small idea. It just expands.
I would like to say “yes” but I’m not sure. I am stubborn. Now, I see things through. I have learned that.
Yes it was so exciting. The 60’s were about imagination, change and revolution. There were the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, the Sydney Push, the Vietnam War and its politics and it was a bohemian time.
And it was a very rich time, for the heart. We had the London exhibitions of Australian paintings at the Tate Gallery and the Whitechapel show. People were beginning to notice. We had commercial galleries starting to open up and mushroom. It seemed to me that art, of all cultural activity, was ahead of the game. In terms of the questions we were asking, like Australian identity, art was making it in a way.
I studied in his evening classes in 1963/64 and a new world opened up to me. I saved money. Against all the best advice, I quit my job.
Well it was a lure that I couldn’t resist. I can’t explain how a 17 year-old has these feelings for painting. And then makes a decision against all the advice. I would say it was a calling.
Yes. I showed with Rudy Komon when I was 22. I showed with Bonython. I showed with Macquarie Galleries. I showed with Rex Irwin. I have shown with the best galleries.
It was a time when Fred Williams, John Brack, Arthur Boyd, Colin Lanceley, Jan Senbergs, Robert Klippel were hitting their straps in one gallery or another, mainly Rudy actually.
Accepting that, it seems to me that older painters strike out, they suddenly strike out. I’m thinking Lloyd Rees – he suddenly struck out of his pattern. Kevin Connor is another - it seems to me that he is using stronger colour. And I wonder if that comes with maturity or age?
It does. There is a loss of detail in your vision. And you feel confident about it. There comes a point when you are actually ahead of your experience and so you are then forced to make imaginative leaps. And if they don’t work you go back and revisit. So there is always a breakdown of belief, and a breakthrough.
Yes, very much, it is a very interior space now.
I am at an age now that I am not embarrassed by it. That’s important.

Gully Boy is one of the most awaited movies of this year which hits the theatres today. The movie starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt in lead roles has already won critical acclaim internationally and is all set to take over the country with the music and power packed performances. Amid this, we got in touch with Bollywood’s go-to celebrity hairstylist Avan Contractor, who is the person behind Ranveer's hairdo in the movie. Avan decoded Ranveer aka Murad's look who plays an underdog from the slums of Dharavi with a boyish charm who dream of becoming stars.
About what inspired Ranveer's look for the movie, Avan explained, "Young rappers from Dharavi. We actually went and met the real rappers who the film is inspired by. We watched them and literally studied their style. Though they take most of their style inspiration from international rappers, there are hints of their roots in their style as they come from simple backgrounds." She further elaborated that the description given to them for the look was that it must be "Hassle free, disheveled, textured hair with easy movement." Well, Ranveer surely does look the part and how!
Meanwhile, Gully Boy, also starring Siddhant Chaturvedi in pivotal role, has been inspired from the lives of real life gully boys, Divine and Naezy. Ranveer and Alia have been going all out with promotions and looks like the duo is here for a win. According to trade analyst, the movie is set for a big opening at the box office.

I am using Readdle's PDF Expert 3.2 to read several of my technical documents and it works great, for the most part. I have a few files which have images which are not showing up in PDF Expert. These images are binary images (black and white) and were created using a math program (Matlab for those that care). Several of the images in the documents show up just fine including ones in color that were made using the same math program. All the figures show up just fine when I view the document in Acrobat Reader, Acrobat Pro, and Bluebeam PDF Revu. The trouble is only in PDF Expert and it is with figures that I need, so this is more than a minor annoyance.
Has anyone else run into this problem, where a few figures of your document were not rendering in PDF Expert? If so, was there anything available to fix the problem?

The realisation that the cardboard boxes, where much of her past and present life were stored, could be turned into sculpture, crept up on her slowly. She started to become more interested in what had once been in the boxes-cans of soup, bolts of materials - than what they currently contained.

As a Fintech Innovator, we seek new approaches to grow our company through dynamic partnerships. This allows us the opportunity to further grow and innovate our products and services.
Incumbent companies and FinTech’s collaboration benefits both sides. Though big companies already have the resources and huge customer base, they’d still need the innovation and technology of Fintechs in order to improve customer experience and stay true to their needs.
Partnerships put you in a position to reach a new audience and potentially increase your customer base. Big and incumbent companies that have thousands or millions of subscribers help Fintech companies to a much wider audience and reach.
Incumbent companies have the capital and infrastructure resources while Fintechs have the technical innovations. Collaboration between the two brings the best out of both worlds.
Being a technical collaboration instrument, this would provide data and assistance to partners in helping them improve data management for improved planning and business development.
Being young, Acudeen has already achieved a lot, inspired by our mission to provide financial inclusion and growth for small and medium businesses in Southeast Asia.
Acudeen is a peer-to-peer financial technology company that enables small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to finance their receivables as early as 5 days. We’ve seen the benefits of business partnerships firsthand. We’ve been working with big and incumbent companies like Openport, Unionbank GlobalLinker, and IBM.
Openport is a technology company that provides blockchain enabled electronic-proof of delivery and transport management solution for MSMEs. Their secured blockchain technology helps businesses to access rapid and affordable financing for their freight and goods invoices through a partnership with Acudeen.
Unionbank’s GlobalLinker is a free digital platform to help entrepreneurs network and grow globally. GlobalLinker offers personalized e-commerce store with inventory management and analysis tools for convenient and easy to use tracking and reporting that also connects entrepreneurs for free through their website.

Microsoft today announced the inclusion of support for 15 Indian languages in Office 365, Outlook 2016, Outlook’s apps on iOS and Android as well as the web, Exchange Online, and Exchange Online Protection. The 15 languages supported are: Hindi, Bodo, Dogri, Konkani, Maithili, Marathi, Nepali, Sindhi, Bengali, Gujarati, Manipuri, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu.
"According to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), there were 2.9 billion internet users worldwide in 2014. This number is expected to grow past 5 billion by 2020. It’s not just the number, but the demographics of internet users that are shifting over time. In 2000, nearly a third of all internet users were American. Now, Chinese users are the largest group, making up 22% of the world’s internet user base. While, American users are still the second largest group online, Indians are soon catching up – 8% of all internet users are Indian, and that number is rapidly expanding.
Currently, Indian languages are underrepresented online. Of the 447 different languages spoken in India, none make it to the list of top 50 digital languages. An English dominated web experience is less than ideal for these users."
It’s worth noting that while this support allows users to add these email addresses within Outlook, the company doesn't yet support the creation of an Outlook address in these languages – there’s no @आउटलुक (@outlook) domain, yet. The only way to create an email address in these languages is to go through a third-party service.
Microsoft's example of a Hindi email address in its announcement is as such: भाषा@माइक्रोसॉफ्ट.भारत. What’s interesting is that the माइक्रोसॉफ्ट.भारत domain name (Microsoft.Bharat, Bharat is Hindi for India) doesn’t appear to be under Microsoft’s direct ownership, and is rather parked by XgenPlus, a Microsoft partner in India.
If you happen to have an email address in one of the supported languages and wish to use it with Outlook, the process to set it up is identical to the one for email addresses in English; Microsoft has detailed the steps over here.
SpaceX is trying to blanket the planet with satellites and connect more people than ever to the Internet, while Google is priming to bring onboard the next billion users onto its services. This is the point when it also becomes necessary to accommodate for the multitude of languages that these new users will be speaking, and that's what these efforts are about.

I'm facing upstage, with my back to the audience, and the spotlight comes up on my back as I start singing.
With Schubert, a lot of the melodies are very simple, but he's in this groove. He's in touch with his heart.
As I've gone along, I felt like I was discovering an aspect of my voice that I didn't know was there: an ability to interpret a song in a way that makes it more accessible.
I think now I'm being taken a little more seriously. That's pure conjecture on my part.
I sang opera, I sang show tunes. I got into a rock band for a while. I've sung a lot of different things.
