A Kingston University architecture student has received a boost to her studies thanks to a bursary from The Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust. Susan Abaniwo, 24, from Forest Gate, East London, was among seven students nationwide to receive grants from the charity during the 2006-07 academic year. The money is awarded to help students whose families have not traditionally sent children to university cover tuition fees, maintenance costs and field trips.
Miss Abaniwo, a third year architecture student, said the £2,000 bursary from the trust had allowed her to cut down on the hours she worked at an out-of-hours GP service to concentrate more on her studies. It had also helped with the costs of buying course materials. "I've always dreamt of being an architect and knew that was what I wanted to study," Miss Abaniwo said. "Before I got the bursary, I used to work every weekend just so I had enough money to travel to and from my university lectures. I couldn't afford books and was always worrying whether I had enough money to buy paper and materials."
Winning the bursary has not only allowed Miss Abaniwo to buy more materials – she also plans to go on a study trip to San Francisco in March, something she wouldn't have been able to afford to do before. "The bursary has made my life a lot easier and I'm very grateful to the trust for its support," she said. "It means I can stop worrying about the expense and concentrate on doing well in my coursework instead. The fact that I was chosen out of so many people has given me more confidence too."
A-level student Stephen Lawrence was 18 years old when he was fatally stabbed at a bus stop near his home in Eltham, South East London, in April 1993. He had always dreamed of becoming an architect so that he could influence the design of inner cities 'from within'. Derek Bardowell, mentoring scheme manager at the trust, which was set up in Stephen's memory, said one of its goals was to make Stephen's dreams a reality for others by opening up opportunities for some of Britain's most disadvantaged young people to become architects or work in related professions. Established in 1998, the trust has so far awarded more than 50 undergraduate and postgraduate bursaries to students. "It is extremely important to us to invest in the education of children and young people whose aspirations and life chances are constrained by economic, cultural and social hardship," Mr Bardowell said.
Another Kingston student, Muriel Tsikirayi, 19, who is in her second year of a BA in Architecture, also received a bursary from the trust this year.
Professor Sarah Chaplin, Head of the University's School of Architecture and Landscape, said it was a tremendous honour for Kingston to have two of its students selected to receive bursaries. "The awards will make a big difference to their ability to get the most out of their studies and go on to launch successful careers," Professor Chaplin said.

Custom Software Development
In this day and age, businesses and companies are having to find ways to do more with less. Key buzzwords are "increase productivity", "decrease expenses/overhead", and "maximize bottom line".
Yes, there are many, many, many, software solutions – and software solutions providers – out there in the marketplace to help a commercial entity respond to this demand. But what if… one size doesn't always fit all? What if you need a little of what this company or provider offers and a little of what another offers? What if there isn't one product or provider out there that meets all your specialized needs or desires? Is it really smart or cost-effective to have to purchase multiple products or services just to get all the features you want or require to get all your specifications met? Of course not…
At KB2Intuit, we realize that your needs and desires are not always the same as someone else's and your needs and desires can't always be met by an "out-of-the-box" solution.. We also realize your budget isn't always the same as someone else's either.
Of course, not every business-person or company has unlimited resources at their disposal to hire some big firm to create the exact software tool or platform you want or require. But that doesn't mean a custom software solution has to be out of reach for a business (or budget) of any size!
We have a software development team, led by CTO/Vice-President of Technology Keith Brooks – a fully-qualified, degreed, and MCSD-certified Software Engineer – that can assist you in creating the precise custom software application you desire, within your budget. Keith personally oversees all requirements gathering, systems analysis, and architecture design proposals to give you the most "bang for your buck" possible. In fact, whenever possible, Keith and will make recommendations of existing software components that can be woven together artfully by our team to provide exactly what you are desiring without the cost of complete customization. This usually means you save BIG. And when complete customization is necessary, Keith can often propose various options and scales of development which can be executed at a choice of price-points and/or in phases if budget allocation needs to be spread out for financial feasibility.
Most of our custom software development is web or "cloud"-based for ease of use and integration with current systems if desired.
The bottom line is that with KB2Intuit, "custom" means "custom"… We work with you closely and compassionately to ensure you get as much for your dollar as possible, as easily as possible, and as quickly as possible. And of course, the initial consultation is always free!
Contact us today to request your complimentary analysis and custom software development quote. Stop wishing you had a software solution that did "…x,y,z," allowing your business to be more efficient, more productive, and more profitable. You can have it! Your bottom line will thank you. Yes… you can have your cake and eat it too!

118 Is the Snuggie Zen?/
Our show this week starts with Booze as usual. Enough liquor that Pumpkin is a bit smashed in the first 10 minutes. "Between the Sheets" is the cocktail and shenanigans is the game. We continue our salute to great American writers with the favorite drink of none other than Edna St. Vincent Millay, a longer name would just be silly. Her early 20th century poetic works have been praised till this day. But less seriously, Pumpkin really steals the show with her drunken blabber. Vagina this, balls that. Pumpkin also shares an encounter with a buss full of "challenged" people. If you ever needed proof that Karma exists then this is the show for you. In keeping with the theme of our show, Sunshine brings us news of Tiki Oasis, Hukilau and the new album from Kava Kon. Cheers.

"…näennäisessä yksinkertaisuudessaan todella vangitseva teos, jonka olisin halunnut kuulla vaikka hetimmiten uudelleen."
Jyri Ojala on newspaper Karjalainen on 12th of July, 2018
"Kiitos kaikille nautinnollisesta yhteistyöstä ja erityisesti Ari hienosta musiikista! Varsinkin laulusarja "Valo rakentuu palasista" on mielestäni suorastaan merkkiteos. Sävykästä, viimeisteltyä, oivaltavaa musiikkia ja hallittu kokonaisuus."
Mikko Raasakka
"…and thank you Maestro Ari Romppanen for your great music!"
Matthias Funke
Composer Ari Romppanen's output consists mainly of chamber music and works for solo instrument. His works have been performed on four different continents. He typically employs innovative formal designs, and he has also used improvisation and electronics. His piano work "Rho Cas" was awarded in the composition contest of the 9th Espoo International Piano Festival in 2007.
As a composer Romppanen doesn't follow any -isms or strict rules, not even the ones created by the work itself. Music itself is an expression strong enough to carry on without support of any form of school of method from outside. He is also interested in astronomy, which can be seen in the titles of his works, like Rho Cas, Sol/Nemesis or Tvashtar Catena, or in the formal constructions of some works.
Recently Ari Romppanen has been familiarizing himself with theater dramaturgy and other performing arts, which has influenced his expression and also ideas concerning overall forms of his works.
Ari Romppanen performs also as a pianist and he has worked as a piano and composition teacher.

....and it's been a long time! Not because I have nothing to say, I just don't have any time to say it these days. :(
My boys are both is hockey again this year, however they are no longer in the same league which means a very chaotic, busy schedule. They are absolutley loving it, so that makes it worth the while, of coarse! Ry just had his first tournament this weekend and he thoroughly enjoyed it! They played 3 games which was exhausting for them all. The poor goalie couldn't muster enough energy to play the last game and felt horrible about leaving her team stranded. The coach tried just placing an extra player on the ice which ended up in a score-fest for the other team. So apparently she asked the players if anyone would volunteer to take net. Ry happily said yes (he has secretly always wanted to play his turn in net) so we got him dressed the the goalie gear and when he hit the ice, he was a complete natural. He managed to block 6 out of 8 shots on net!! The other parents in the stands were, of coarse, teasing me cuz if anyone knows anything about the cost of being a goalie, that in itself is enough to make a person faint. Needless to say, Ry was incredibly proud of himself and he ended up getting the player award at the end of the game! He doesn't want to continue in net, but does wish that he could switch off with the goalie now and then! Yikes!
Mas is in his second year of TimBits and he is just a restless spirit on the ice. He has improved to the point where he could join the novice team if it weren't for his age. While the coaches are working with the other children, Mas is off skating, practicing his turns and stops and shots on net. It's all very cute. He is looking super forward to playing his first game. He gets to scrimmage at the Wheat King game on Friday!
As for me, I am now working full time hours, which in this job, is about 50 hours per week with all of the paper work and after hours stuff to do. I am still loving my job but am having issues with some of the therapists and their high-and-mighty attitudes. Unfortunately not everyone shares the same philosophy and that's this: IT'S ALL ABOUT THE KIDS AND THEIR FAMILIES not the big words and the power trips that have been getting in the way. It's very difficult to do your job when there is always somebody who wants to criticize because they are threatened by your passion. That's my perception of it anyway. I don't consider myself to be a threatening person. Passionate, yes. Caring, yes. Good at what I do....YES. So I've been in a pissy mood since last week when the lastest *&$# came in on a perceived incident that wasn't at all the case. It's a bitch of thing to be misunderstood, misconstrued and percieved as somone you aren't. I have been in a funk since. It sux. If there was one thing that I could change about me it would be my inability to deeply personalize that which has been said to me. I wish that I could find the strength within me to say #&@* you, I know who I am, where I come from, and why I do what I do and it's all for the sake of the children. However, I choose (operative word, I suppose) to sit and dwell on the hurtful things and just can't seem to shake it and get past it.
So that's my rant for that.
I am sure to have a very emotional post coming, but I will save that for another day, as I choose (again, operative word) to not think about that for now. In the meantime, I leave you with this quote and thank you for taking the time to read my post/vent.

Jan. 29, 2003
SHANGHAI, China - The final day of the 2003 Four Nations Tournament produced two positive results for the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team as the Americans notched solid a 1-0 victory over Germany, while China and Norway tied 1-1, giving the USA the championship of this important pre-Women's World Cup tournament featuring the world's top four women's soccer teams.
The win gave the USA six points, China finished second with five, followed by Germany and Norway with two teach. The USA finished third in this tournament last year, which was won by Norway, with Germany second and China last.
The winning goal came from midfielder Devvyn Hawkins, who played a solid game at the defensive midfield slot and was named the Chevrolet Woman of the Match. The goal was the first of her international career in her first start of the tournament and in just her ninth international match. Although the weather was the nicest by far of the three match days, with the sun shining on a crisp Shanghai afternoon, the temperatures were still in the mid-40s as the USA took the game to Germany for 90 minutes at Hongkou Stadium, site of six matches in the 2003 Women's World Cup, including a semifinal.
U.S. head coach April Heinrichs also gave first starts of the tournament to defender Christie Pearce, and 19-year-old Lindsay Tarpley, which was also her first-ever start in just her third full national team match. Heinrichs also started the same back line that played so well in the 2000 Olympics, with Brandi Chastain in the middle and Kate Sobrero at left back in a swap of positions from Australia. Team captain Joy Fawcett played in the middle with Chastain and Pearce was at right back. It was the first time the four had started on the back line together since November 11, 2000, in the first match following the Olympics. The four defenders combined well with goalkeeper Briana Scurry and some stifling defense in the midfield to record the shutout.
The U.S. team, mostly recovered from a stomach virus that swept through the team in the middle of the tournament, was sharp and produced some great possession soccer.
The goal came in the 18th minute on a perfect execution of a free kick play. With the ball about 30 yards out on the left side, midfielder Aly Wagner played a short pass to the checking Tiffeny Milbrett, who spun a world class pass with the outside of her right foot to Chastain, who was cutting behind the German wall into the left side of the penalty area. Chastain hit a hard cross on the ground that the crashing Hawkins met first time to roll into the net from five yards out on the bang-bang play.
Wagner made a big difference in the midfield for the USA after playing just 24 minutes against China three days ago, keeping possession in a packed middle of the field while also winning balls and making an impact defensively.
The USA opened the game with great energy, almost scoring in just the 3rd minute as Cindy Parlow received a quick throw-in down the right flank, dribbled to the end line and slide to hit a cross to Milbrett, who was making a near post run. The U.S. striker got a good piece of the ball on her first-time shot, but German goalkeeper Nadine Angerer saved the ball with her knees.
Two minutes later, Wagner sent ball over the German defense to Milbrett. She kicked the bouncing ball up in the air 18 yards from the goal and the resulting free ball fell to Parlow in the left side of the penalty area. She hit a vicious volley that was well saved by Angerer and ball bounced to Tarpley, but she couldn't get enough pace on her shot and Angerer saved that one too.
Tarpley held her own against an experienced German team and almost got past Angerer several minutes later, but the Germany goalkeeper got a toe on the ball as the former U-19 captain tried to round her. The rebound found Wagner 24 yards from the net and she tried to chip it home, but didn't get enough loft on her shot and it was cleared away by a defender.
Germany settled down and played tough defense the rest of the way, making it difficult for the USA to penetrate through the middle. On the other side, lone German striker Martina Muller did a lot of running, but not much else, as Chastain and Joy Fawcett capped a marvelous tournament with more steady play.
Germany produced a couple of dangerous attacks down the right flank in the first half, only to fall victim to poor service, much of it forced by Sobrero and Pearce. The only dangerous chance for Germany in the first half came in the 44th when Petra Wimbersky settled a poor U.S. clearance about 16 yards from the goal, but fired high. German captain Birgit Prinz was ineffective on the left flank early on, but moved into the attacking center midfield position and created danger with her long dribbling runs for the rest of the match.
Germany, which was playing without captain Bettina Wiegmann who had a hamstring injury, produced two quick shots in the second half before the USA took back control of the game and Germany did not produce a shot on goal until the 54th minute, that a weak header from Muller that did not trouble Scurry.
Germany made a push for an equalizer at the end of the game, getting a fine chance in the 81st minute when Kerstin Garefrekes got around the right end and crossed on the ground, but a German shot was blocked by a pack of U.S. defenders.
Germany had two chances at the end of the game, one off a corner kick that flew over the U.S. defense, only to be harmlessly popped over the U.S. goal by Muller. In the 89th minute, Chastain was pulled down at the top of her own penalty area, but got no call, and Prinz, battling three U.S. defenders, bulled her way into the box for a shot, but Scurry secured the win with a diving save to her right.

Kids with ADD or ADHD have a tough time keeping still and concentrating on a specific task. Some of them have a lot of trouble learning new things or accomplishing schoolwork because of this.
Investing in some toys for kids with ADD or ADHD can help them work through their attention problems and learn how to focus. Kinetic sand is a great toy for those with ADD and ADHD.
It is textured and easy to use. It stays moist without having a slick or oily feel. It does not stick to hands or furniture and it is relatively easy to clean up. The texture is also very soothing on hands and it is nice for kids who feel like they need to fidget or constantly play with something.
When kids with ADD or ADHD have something to move around in their hands, they often have an easier time concentrating on other things. Brain Food is another toy that can keep hands busy during activities that require the kid to sit still, like schoolwork or a lesson.
Brain food is similar to putty but without being sticky or wet. It is dry to the touch and you can mold it or pull it apart. It always goes back to its original form when you put it back together.
It helps build motor skills and strengthen hands as well. Another toy that is excellent for kids with ADD or ADHD is Nanoblocks Sites to See. There are several different sites you can purchase, like the Sydney Opera House, the Taj Mahal, the Eiffel Tower, and Castle Neuschwanstein.
The instructions allow kids to build miniature replicas of these famous landmarks and it does not take too long to get it completed. If your kid wants something bigger than a small replica, try a Roylco straws and connectors jumbo set.
These sets come with different amounts of pieces, but Fat Brain Toys sells a 705 piece that is reasonably priced. The set comes with 390 straws and 315 connectors.
The straws are eight inches long so there is plenty of length to build something big. The set works well to keep hands busy and it can be played with on the kid's own or with a friend or parent.
The straws and connectors come in different colors and are easy to snap together and take apart. There is no end to what can be built with these, including building a small house and tossing a sheet over it to make a tent. Not only is it good for helping to lengthen attentions spans, it also teaches kids about architectural designs and spatial designs.

Today's post is about a dilemma most of us geeks in the modern age must confront: keeping our virtual lives balanced with our offline lives. I don't even like the phrase "in real life" because my digital activities are just as real as my analog ones; but I use it for lack of a better one.
During this Spring Break I decided to turn off my Twitter and Facebook accounts. Over the last few years my time spent on both of those social networks has increased while the impact or payoff from using them has not. I believe my contributions to such networks should be either uplifting or useful to both others and myself. I like to share resources, news, and support with others. I like to foster connections that benefit both me and the other users. I simply found that the "drinking from a firehose" nature of following ed tech colleagues, ELL coaches, health/fitness gurus, gadget geeks, travel deals, etc., became more than I could keep up with. I wasn't forming many lasting or mutually beneficial connections and I was spending a significant number of hours per week checking tweets and posts. I had even tried limiting my Facebook friends to only non-work-related individuals, yet social circles inevitably get wider, and the number of posts that called for my attention got more and more time-consuming. For all the interesting, funny, and helpful links, photos, stories, and resources my network and I shared, I had the gnawing feeling that no one would notice if I kept it up or not. Much of it felt like shouting into a void. Hardly any of those online connections were maturing into offline or even telephone relationships. There's some value in purely virtual acquaintances, no doubt, but it occurred to me that my time and energy are my prime assets--was I spending them wisely?
Because much of my work requires me to be online, If I'm not careful to monitor myself and use Herculean self-discipline, the work and the play time in front of the screen begin to overlap and meld. That's fun, until you feel as though you work 18 hours a day and are unnaturally tethered to your digital devices. I had to ask myself: are my activities adding value or sucking the life out of me? Are these networks inspiring me to actually get offline, live, move, and love others? Am I becoming more thoughtful, focused, and wise because of them or am I becoming more scattered mentally and stagnant physically? I wasn't pleased with my answers to these questions.
I don't consider being overly busy a virtue and these social networks were eating away at time I could be spending on work, play, or building meaningful friendships and professional associations. I'm at a time in my life where I need to invest my time and energies where they will matter most and produce a return. Don't get me wrong: I believe that in all my interactions with people I should try first to be of service and to give more than I receive. Although I found I didn't have enough time to contribute enough meaningful material, I was gradually getting in the habit of spending time contributing fluff, quips, gripes, and jokes. That wasn't value-added for me or my followers and friends. So it was time for a break.
I also did some spring cleaning and culled my RSS Feeder of blogs and podcasts that aren't truly fun or useful to me. That needs to be done every so often because I tend to subscribe to new blogs or podcasts to see what they're like and because I love to learn new things; however, the list gets big quickly and becomes overwhelming.
I'm not swearing off social media. I'm not fasting from the digital age. I will still text and watch a little TV. I still teach 6 computer classes a day. I still belong to a number of professional online communities, read or skim about 50 blogs, and subscribe to about 20 podcasts. I still believe in social media as a great way to stay connected--I will miss my friends and family's day-to-day posts on Facebook. I will miss some of the up-to-the minute professional development that came from the teaching community on Twitter (especially missmarista's tales of the UAE and wmchamberlain's insights). There just has to be a balance. When it comes to our virtual lives, let's not forget the "M" word: moderation.
My goal for the next few months is to do a better job of picking up the phone and making some voice calls, planning more face-to-face meetups, writing some snail mail, hitting the gym and the bike trails, and most of all: turning off the screens and getting a life! You can ask me how that's going. In fact, let's go discuss it over a nice walk!

World Water Day is marked annually on 22 March as a means of bringing attention to the importance of freshwater and advocating for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.
It is a day to celebrate water and to express solidarity with efforts that make a difference to members of the global population who suffer from water-related issues. Each year, World Water Day highlights a specific aspect of water. Environmental damage, together with climate change, is driving the water-related crises we see around the world. Floods, drought and water pollution are all made worse by degraded vegetation, soil, rivers and lakes. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that there are over 663 million people living without a safe water supply close to home, spending countless hours queuing or trekking to distant sources, and coping with the health impacts of using contaminated water.
This year's theme for World Water Day is 'Nature for Water' – exploring nature-based solutions to the water challenges we face in the 21st century. Globally, the vast majority of all the wastewater from our homes, cities, industries, and agriculture flows back to nature without being treated or reused.
Water is at the core of sustainable development. Water resources and the range of services they provide underpin poverty reduction, economic growth, and environmental sustainability. From food and energy security to human and environmental health, water contributes to improvements in social well-being and inclusive growth, affecting the livelihoods of billions.
ICIMOD will celebrate World Water Day (22 March) through the following activities:

We started our night with a frustrating experience at Laz parking garage lot formerly the Motor Mart garage. The only entrance open was on Stuart Street so we had to drive around and wait in a line of cars entering the garage. At the end of the evening we tried to pay for our ticket and all of the tickets were invalid. We drove down to the office and had to wait in a line of people to pay. Obviously the transition wasn't smooth.
After parking we walked over to Abby Lane for drinks and appetizers before the show. We were fortunate to only have a 10 minute wait for seats at the Bar. The drinks we ordered were wonderful. I loved the Cat's Pajamas with lavender infused gin. Greg enjoyed the Barrel Aged Papa Joe. Unfortunately the food didn't live up to the service nor the drinks. We ordered a dozen oysters and while they and the accompaniments were delicious, the oysters weren't shucked properly. The next issue was with the salt and vinegar french fries. Sadly these contained milk powder. The last issue was when I asked if they had plain french fries and I was given french fries that were battered. French fries can be crunchy and delicious all on their own with out flour or milk! Take the time to let ingredients shine on their own.
We crossed the street and entered the Wang Theater. Before heading to our seats we purchased a couple of waters and champagne's. Why not, it's date night! Circus 1903 was fantastic. The show was wonderfully themed, the costumes were well chosen, the performers were amazing, and the entire performance was filled with whimsy.

Online subscriptions offer amazing perks and value
Online publications are the rage and the future. They offer amazing value for the publisher, for the advertiser and for the reader. They also offer more than significant cost reduction for all three players.
Background: I moved to Charlotte in 1988. I brought as much of the Northeast with me as I possibly could. That included my subscription to The New Yorker. The magazine doesn't just have the best articles in the world, it also has the best cartoons in the universe.
The magazine comes out 47 times a year. As you can imagine, for one reason or another (as with your subscriptions), the magazine often did not get read. Sometimes there would be an unread pile of five or six. Guilt would set in.
Finally, after about eight or nine years, I stopped my subscription. Occasionally, I would pick up one in an airport gift shop and read it on the plane, and I continued to subscribe to the cartoon newsletter, which came to my email inbox with all the cartoons once a week. Then they changed it and made you click onto the website in order to see the cartoons, so I quit reading it.
Today: This morning I got a random email listing the contents of this week's The New Yorker magazine. I guess they had my address and decided to quasi-spam me. I bit.
I clicked on the link and found out that, for $59.95 a year, I could get a digital subscription that includes the current issue, a one-year subscription and access to every back issue since 1925. Plus they throw in The New Yorker cartoon calendar. I couldn't resist. I bought the online version, and from now on I will only buy the online version of anything I want to subscribe to or read.
Here's why: I get on an airplane and click The New Yorker magazine icon on my iPad. Then I read this week's issue, look at this week's cartoons, and can go back and look at nearly 5,000 other back issues that are searchable by content. Holy magazine, Batman!
Reality questions: Is The New Yorker trying to discourage me from buying the printed issues? If you have an e-reader, why would you buy any printed magazine?
Reality facts: Newsweek, which had more than 100 years of printed issues, stopped printing the magazine. Now you can only get it online.
Today: I used to subscribe to Selling Power magazine. It's the voice of salespeople, sales tips, sales techniques, sales lists and sales products.
The future is today: They stopped printing the magazine a few months ago and only offer an online version. Brilliant. Gerhard Gschwandtner, the founder, publisher and visionary saw that print versions were declining in revenue, and it was time to decide on the future rather than lament the present.
Reality: Online cuts costs — drastically. Online makes advertising more affordable. Online offers more options for the reader to connect with the advertiser. With print ads, the reader has to make a call or go online and search. With online ads, the reader is already online and only has to click the ad to find out more, subscribe to a blog, get a video, go to the advertiser's website, or buy something.
I'm all in: Am I missing something here? Value, versatility and instant access. Look for my ad in Selling Power magazine in April. It's an ad I would never have placed in the print version, an ad that is 50 percent less expensive than it was in the printed version, an ad that gives the reader (my prospective customer) instant access to my offer to buy.
Fool's gold: Five years ago I had a talk with some Yellow Pages executives. I asked them how much longer the Yellow Pages would be printed and when they would be switching to an online version. They smiled and proclaimed, "We're not going to stop printing. The book is our cash cow." And they changed the subject. In the last five years, the book has gone from a cash cow to a cash calf to a cash rump roast. And YP.com is more than 10 years late to the dance.
Please don't read this the wrong way. Print is not dead. In fact, it will always be alive. Many people still don't have the ability to get online publications. But the market is making a huge shift. There are "only" a few hundred million e-readers and tablets, and a few hundred million more smart phones. The print impact felt by online availability is undeniable.
Think about you: How much of an impact has your e-reader or tablet made on your reading habits? What are you subscribing to? Has online reading brought you greater convenience and availability? Easier access and more incentive to stay current?
And finally, what are your plans to make your products and services "online available"?
Think about this: Every time you see someone reading on a tablet, they could be reading about you.

The people behind Zeo are at it again. This time, instead of using a headband to track sleep, they're using a lighter to track cigarettes.
Two of Zeo's former employees are among the founders of Quitbit, a crowdfunding supported company developing a smart lighter in a bid to tap into the smoking cessation market, a growing and important market already served by nicotine patches made by Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), and e-cigarettes made by Lorillard (UNKNOWN:LO.DL), Reynolds (NYSE:RAI), and Altria (NYSE:MO).
Those major cigarette manufacturers are benefiting from rising popularity for e-cigarettes even as traditional cigarette sales falter. Initially marketed as a way to stop smoking, e-cigarettes are also being used as a cigarette alternative, with users advocating that e-cigarette vapor is less toxic than chemical-laden packs of Pall Mall and Marlboro.
Can lighters displace batteries?
It's unclear how much of the smoking cessation market Quitbit's lighter could capture, and whether Quitbit's lighter could erode battery-powered e-cigarette sales among users hoping to kick the habit. The lighter is a unique idea, but its appeal may be somewhat limited. The lighter will track the number of lights, and is programmed to ignore smokers who like to fiddle with their lighter, or who tend to light cigarettes for friends. To eliminate those from the lighter's running count, the lighter won't register lights lasting less than 1.5 seconds, or lights that happen within three minutes of a counted light.
Quitbit's goal is to establish the lighter as a friendly reminder, similar to a weight scale, that can be used to help users reduce how much they smoke. Will users be willing to pay for a lighter that essentially nags them about their habit? It's a fair question; but Quitbit's lighter could find a niche audience of users who would like to limit their smoking, without quitting cold turkey.
E-Cigarettes remain a powerful product
Lorillard was the first of the big three to embrace e-cigarettes, purchasing the e-cigarette brand Blu in 2009. Blu has since become the industry leader, with market share near 50%, and annualized sales north of $200 million.
Reynolds and Altria, the nation's largest makers of cigarettes, have approached e-cigarettes more cautiously, but are more recently bolstering their own e-cigarette offerings. Altria announced it would spend $110 million in February to add e-cigarette maker Green Smoke to its existing MarkTen brand, and Reynolds launched Vuse, its own e-cigarette brand, last summer.
That has smaller e-cigarette manufacturers and consumer watchdogs nervous. Smaller e-cigarette companies are already finding it tough to compete given that big tobacco's deep pockets provide firepower for marketing and innovation. As Reynolds and Altria gain a foothold, consolidation among the smaller players is likely.
Regulator worries aren't tied to market share, but, instead, to rising popularity, and studies showing that e-cigarette vapor may not be as safe as some early proponents have suggested. There's also a growing concern that the main users of e-cigarettes aren't users trying to quit, but young consumers new to nicotine. If that's true, some anti-smoking advocates think e-cigarettes may pose more harm than good, serving as a gateway to more powerful nicotine products, including traditional cigarettes.
E-cigarettes, as a category, are also facing another threat from vaporizers that deliver a more potent dose of nicotine than traditional e-cigarettes. As vaporizers gain more attention and slow e-cigarette growth, companies like Lorillard are investing more in boosting the potency of e-cigarettes to compete.
During Lorillard's first-quarter earnings conference call, the company reported that vaporizers were one reason behind its quarter-over-quarter e-cigarette sales growth slowing to about 10%. That's got Lorillard ramping R&D to make its e-cigarettes more powerful.
"Blu will be making a series of technical advances in the next 6 months that improve battery strength, vapor production, consumer value and satisfaction. We believe these types of changes will accelerate the acceptance and/or minimize the defection from traditional e-cigs, but we will be watching the vaporizer category carefully," said Lorillard CEO Murray Kessler.
Fool-worthy final thoughts
There are, of course, traditional (and well-tested) methods of quitting smoking, such as Pfizer's Chantix, a smoking cessation drug that posted sales of nearly $650 million last year. In studies, 23% of Chantix patients quit smoking at one year versus just 10% of patients receiving placebo.
E-cigarettes may offer some users an opportunity to quit, too, but more studies will need to be conducted to prove that their risk to new smokers is lower than their benefit to those looking to stop. While Quitbit has a unique device that may help users at least reduce their smoking, there's also the chance of users relegating the lighter to the back of the junk drawer, similar to stashing the weight scale in the back of the closet. After all, what we don't know can't hurt us -- or so the saying goes.

Along with a few other snippets of Eee PC information.
Rumours, rumours and more rumours. That's all we've heard about Asus' proposed plans to launch a touch screen fitted Eee PC but DigiTimes may just have put those rumours to bed, as the site has apparently had Samson Hu, General Manager of Eee PC at Asus, confirm that a touch screen Eee is indeed coming.
Specific details are yet to be decided, and will be decided nearer the time of launch, which is slated for next year. A system is hoped to be on show at CES, in Janurary.
As well as this, Asus is also planning to launch a dual-core CPU just as soon as Intel makes the chips available. Although, obviously, Asus has no say in when that will happen, being reliant on Intel for that.
Better still, Asus Presiden Jerry Shen has said a cheap as chips Eee PC model will be arriving at some point in 2009, too. Supposedly the model will cost "less than" NT$10,000 (~£180).
Good news all around, Eee PC fans.

U.S. Sen. Scott Brown, R-MA, a prominent member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, lost Tuesday one the tightest and most closely watched Senate races to Democrat Elizabeth Warren.
Defense industry executives paid close attention as they hoped to keep Brown in prominent Senate committee as he had served as a moderate who could cross the aisle on divisive defense issues. It's unclear who the Republicans will replace in Brown's open seat.
Warren, a Harvard law professor, has not said if she intends to seek a seat at the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Even if the Democratic party does not place offer her at seat on the committee, Warren can expect a call from General Dynamics. The Massachusetts-based defense company is working hard with the Army to build a next generation battlefield communications network that could be worth billions over the life of the contract.
Brown had received significant campaign contributions from defense firms to keep Brown's support in the Senate. Filling Brown's Senate seat, she could prove to serve as an interesting player in the forthcoming lame duck negotiations to evade the sequestration cuts.
Brown said repeatedly he would do everything in his power to avoid the $500 billion defense cuts. Warren has not made her position clear on the sequestration cuts.

Celebrating 10 years of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities
|Posted on:
|Tuesday, 13th December, 2016
Ten years ago today the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities was adopted at the United Nations (CRPD). Ten years on we celebrate progress made since this groundbreaking international agreement, but also look forward to what still needs to be done.
The adoption of the CRPD marked a historic moment as it was the first international framework designed to promote, prpotect and reinforce the human rights of all people with disabilities. To date it has been ratified by 169 countries and the EU. It plays a critical role in promoting the inclusion of people with disabilities and raising their voices both nationally and globally.
Kirsty Smith, CBM UK's CEO said:
"The Convention has been a hugely important driving force to improve the inclusion of people with disabilities across the world. But 10 years after the CRPD's adoption, there are still millions of people with disabilities who are trapped in poverty and excluded from participating in their communities."
As well as celebrating the 10th anniversary of the CRPD, we are also celebrating that implementation of the new Sustainable Development Goals that has begun in 2016.
"The global framework of the SDGs pledges to leave no one behind and makes explicit how people with disabilities should be included, marking 2016 as a critical turning point for disability rights.On the 10th anniversary of the convention we celebrate the progress made to date and focus our efforts on continuing to try to close the gap that still exists, so that all people with disabilities can enjoy their human rights and reach their full potential."
Despite huge progress in the inclusion of disabilities in the last ten years there are still critical gaps, including in the inclusion of people with disabilities in international development programmes. People with disabilities will not benefit from international development unless they are included from the start and the barriers they face are removed. Empowering people with disabilities to access their rights and actively participate in society will be key to reducing global poverty and meeting the Sustainable Development Goals. The UK's recent commitment to become a global leader on disability will be key to meeting their obligations under the convention as well as achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

High Point, NC 27265
Hair Loss Treatments & Hyaluronic Acid Injections in High Point, NC
Complete a more youthful look by investing in the hair restoration and facial filler options that are available at Koher Medical. Koher Medical has over 25 years of experience in the medical industry, and we can make recommendations that match both your needs and budget to achieve the image you want.
Hair loss affects millions of men and women, and can be commonly attributed to genetics, medical conditions, and a variety of extraneous causes. Koher Medical can address hair loss with a variety of surgical or nonsurgical treatments, including the following procedures in High Point, NC:
- Hair Transplantation. A hair transplant is a procedure that moves hair from the back and sides of the head and moves it to the thinning areas of the scalp. It's been shown to be the most effective treatment for hair loss in both men and women, and the surgeons of Koher Medical are particularly experienced with this procedure. With over 25 years of experience and over 15000 patients treated, it's sure to be a strong option for helping your hair loss at Koher Medical.
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and ACell technology. This refers to a series of injections that can restore hair loss in both men and women. PRP is a solution that comes from using the healing plasma of your own blood, while ACell refers to proteins that are used to strengthen compromised or weakened hair follicles. Treatments will need to be scheduled a few times a year, but results have been very promising.
- Low-level Laser Therapy. The use of Near Infrared Light (NIR) on the scalp to promote hair growth and help the healing processes of skin. Therapeutic light pulses help stimulate follicles for stronger and healthier hair, and can aid in reducing inflammation and healing wounds, tissue, and nerves. Portable laser devices are now available for use in the comfort of your home, such as the Theradome Laser Helmet.
- Rogaine/Minoxidil. This is a topical solution that can assist both men and women with hair regrowth. Minoxidil, however, doesn't just add hair — it has been shown to reverse the effects of hereditary hair loss, as it thickens and strengthens hair follicles when used on a consistent basis. It's often combined with other treatments to maximize effectiveness.
- Propecia/Finasteride. Propecia, also known as Finasteride, is a daily medication that combats hair loss for males and is particularly effective at restoring hair loss at the top of the head. Women may also take this drug, although it is not recommended if they are pregnant. Patients typically see results in as little as three months.
- Sure Thik Topik. Comprised of proteins that act like hair fibers, this builds onto your current hair to add volume and coverage. It is available in a variety of colors and may be useful to those who have recently undergone a hair transplant.
If your concern is not in your hairline but the fine lines that are appearing on your face, Koher Medical has several injectable options to choose from. Our injectable choices include Botox, Xeomin, Belotero and Radiesse.
Depend on Koher Medical for Hair Restoration & Dermal Fillers
Restore your youthful image by trusting your High Point hair loss treatments to Koher Medical. To learn about which procedure may be the most beneficial for you, contact us for a free consultation.
Koher Medical treats hair loss and other signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles, in High Point, Mebane and Charlotte, NC, as well as Harrisburg, PA; Roanoke, VA; and Greenville, SC.

Half of a Yellow Sun
Half of a Yellow Sun is set in the 1960s, before and during the Nigerian-Biafran War. The novel follows a small group of people — including university professor Odenigbo, his thirteen-year-old servant Ugwu, and twin sisters Olanna and Kainene — as the massacres begin and a new nation is formed under the name Biafra. They are forced to flee their homes, separate from their family and friends, and face the harsh reality that war is not defined by ideals but by violence, starvation, and choices that will haunt them forever.
"The bombing was louder and closer. The ground pulsed. She felt nothing. She was floating away from inside herself. Another explosion came and the earth vibrated, and one of the naked children crawling after crickets giggled. Then the explosions stopped and the people around her began to move. If she had died, if Odenigbo and Baby and Ugwu had died, the bunker would still smell like a freshly tilled farm and the sun would still rise and the crickets would still hop around. The war would continue without them. Olanna exhaled, filled with a frothy rage. It was the very sense of being inconsequential that pushed her from extreme fear to extreme fury. She had to matter. She would no longer exist limply, waiting to die."
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is the author of three novels — Purple Hibiscus, Half of a Yellow Sun, and Americanah — and one short story collection, The Thing Around Your Neck. Born in Nigeria, she now divides her time between there and the United States.

FRANKFURT (Reuters) – Volkswagen Group's (VOWG_p.DE) Chief Executive Herbert Diess warned that new anti-pollution tests pose a risk to the carmaker's profit targets.
VW has warned that production of up to 250,000 cars will be delayed as it struggles to adapt its vehicles to a new anti-pollution test, the Worldwide Harmonized Light Duty Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP).
In a press conference on Wednesday to discuss second-quarter results, Diess said the ongoing changeover to the WLTP test procedure poses, "The biggest volume and earnings risk for Volkswagen."

Influenced by the abstract minimalist compositions of traditional Japanese & Chinese ink paintings where blank spaces are an integral part of the composition, the abstract shapes and tones of the composition were my first consideration. Linear lines were kept simple, cross contouring the forms and textures of my subjects..
The rich copperish hue I could see in my minds eye,.. it had to be just right.. With a few sample tests, a strong mixture of raw umber & light red watercolour got the result desired.
Luckily I had first hand reference of the mangrove tree from a few life sketches I had done a few years back at Morib where their remains, like skeletons, haunt their salty waters.

This episode of the podcast is concerned with the 2007 film from DreamWorks and Paramount Pictures, 'Transformers'.
And concerned is the adjective of choice for this film, in every sense of the word. Concerned with the sheer number of continuity mistakes and factual errors; concerned that director Michael Bay has turned a beloved children's toy into a misogynistic, classless, charisma vacuum; and most importantly of all concerned that there have been three sequels in the franchise, with another 3 to come before 2019. Still, enough about the film. What about the science, and specifically, what about the robots?
Thankfully we have Dr Matthew Southgate, research engineer at Manchester Metropolitan University, on hand to help us to pick through the minefield of robotic questions. What is it that constitutes a robot exactly? Having covered both Cyborgs and Artificial Intelligence in previous episodes of the podcast, how are robots different? Are they?
We also talk to Dr Southgate about some of the ethics involved in the construction and use of robots, and have a look into the fascinating and rapidly developing world of Robot Sports. This means of course that the much-loved Robot Wars gets a mention, which is a great excuse (if ever one was needed) to show this clip. For reasons that we are still not entirely sure of Sam spends an inordinate amount of time discussing Cristiano Ronaldo's' six pack, and James' car gets yet another mention (did you know that it was electric?).
To anyone still in any doubt or not about whether to watch this film, don't. You would be better served banging your head against a brick wall for 143 minutes, and would almost certainly kill fewer brain cells in the process.
In the upcoming Extras we talk at length with Dr Southgate about the advent of the autonomous car, and what that might mean for our daily commute. Make sure to listen out for that conversation, but in the meantime here is a little taster of a rather special patent from Google.
Listen to these related episodes:
2. AI – More Human Than Human
In this episode, we talk to Martyn Amos, a Professor of Novel Computation at Manchester Metropolitan University, and find out how close we are to killer sentient robots, specifically in relation to Ridley Scott's 1982 film 'Blade Runner'.
13. Bionics – Never Be The Same Again
Would you like the ability to control electronics with your mind? Store data on your internal flash memory? Want to be a cyborg? In this episode we discuss the 1989 Jean-Claude van Damme film 'Cyborg' and ask what makes a cyborg? Where is the technology going? And are we headed for an ethical blackhole?

As a member of The Laundromat Success Program™ you:
For more information, call 888-997-9801
The Laundromat Success Program™ helps you create a detailed plan to completely protect all aspects of your laundromat business. Created by Larry Trapani, The Laundromat Success Program will help you save and make money, enjoy greater peace of mind, and protect and grow your business.
"Most successful Laundromat owners have purchased insurance, but they may have left themselves unprotected in many ways," says Larry Trapani. "Many are so busy running their business that they address important insurance issues in a reactive fashion. As a result, they may not have enough coverage to re-open their business in the event of a catastrophic loss. They also may not have Business Interruption Insurance, Auto Non-ownership Insurance or Umbrella protection, leaving their business vulnerable to unexpected costs and loss of profit. In fact, they may only secured insurance required by creditors: for example, for their Washers and Dryers. We call this "The Washer-and-Dryer Insurance Trap" and it is why we created The Laundromat Success Program™: to help you create a detailed plan to completely protect all aspects of your Laundromat business.
The Laundromat Success Program™ is a step-by-step process divided into distinct phases. In phase one, you participate in a one-on-one Starter Session to assess your current situation and set goals. When you've completed the session, you'll be ready to participate in The Laundromat Success Program, which helps you develop a detailed plan. We then help you implement your plan. You can then take advantage of The Laundromat Success Toolbox, our full suite of insurance products and advisors.
"We developed this planning process for clients who want to fully protect themselves and their businesses," Trapani says. "We help them understand more fully their current situation and clarify their goals for the future. Then we determine the best way to fully protect their business, and review all of the necessary strategies and tools."

Plumbing Tips Everyone Needs To Know About
How knowledgeable are you about plumbing? What improvements would you make? What kind of skills do you have? Read this article to learn more about plumbing and feel more confident about doing repairs yourself.
If you have a frozen pipe, turn on the nearest faucet so the water has an escape route when the pipe starts to thaw. By doing this, the pipe pressure is relieved, and this should stop it from bursting, which would prevent further home damage.
If you have issues with the plumbing making a hammering sound when you turn it off, check your water pressure. Any time your water pressure is above 80 PSI, you will hear extra water noise. This can be easily solved by the installation of a pressure-reducing valve, which can be done by most homeowners.
Certain things shouldn't go into your plumbing system. By knowing what you can and cannot flush or throw into the garbage disposal and sink, you can save yourself from a costly repair or disaster. A plumber can usually get your plumbing back into working condition, but can be avoided if you know how to dispose of items correctly.
If the water in your toilet is low along with the toilet being clogged, pour some extra water in the bowl to make the plunger effective again. Do this every time the water level gets too low.
At least once a year remove the faucet aerator and clean the screens. This helps it properly function. The function of a faucet aerator is to allow for an even flow of water and to conserve water. Be sure to clean out the aerator and you'll notice a these things working.
Place a strainer over the drains to collect anything that could clog and cause stoppage. Clean out the one in the kitchen whenever there's something trapped there that shouldn't be. Keep the bathroom drains cleaned out too.
Sometimes you have to make the choice between replacing or repairing. If you have an old appliance, that uses a lot of water or electricity, it may be best to replace. Sure, it will cost more initially, but it will save you money in the long run. The other thing is, you can't be sure how well a repair will work out, whereas with a new appliance you'll at least get a guarantee.
Is your toilet leaking? Find out by putting some food color in the tank and then check the bowl later. If there is colored water in the bowl, the toilet has an internal leak. To fix an internal leak you can simply replace the tank's ball or flapper.
Letting your sink run is not really necessary when you put something down the in-sink disposal unit. It seems like water would help make the disposal function more smoothly, and many people simply assume that this is so, but it is not really the case. This could actually make the garbage more sticky and cause more issues.
Are you now better educated about plumbing? Do you now have a better grasp of what kind of system is in your home? Are your skills improving? Do you know more about working with your system? Are you aware of exactly how to correctly operate the equipment? Feel confident in your new insights and apply the knowledge as needed.
