This quarterly newsletter is sent to Procurement Services customers to provide announcements and updates regarding ongoing initiatives and procedures.
Marcelo Valdivieso has been selected as the university's new director of procurement services. His appointment was effective Monday, August 22. Read the entire article.
The M-Pathways Financials system is being upgraded and will be unavailable starting 5 p.m., Thursday, September 15, to 6 a.m. Monday, September 19. Users are encouraged to plan ahead for this outage. Any transactions needing approvals (from Sponsored Programs, Procurement Services, etc.) should be submitted by 5 p.m., Friday, September 9 to allow sufficient time for approvals.
M-marketsite's 'Browse Only' access will be available to shop and assign carts during the M-Pathways upgrade outage. However, access to place orders and work assigned carts will be unavailable during the outage. To ensure orders are processed before the outage, submit your M-marketsite orders by 4 p.m., Thursday, September 15.
During this outage, users may still contact Procurement Services at (734) 764-8212, option 2, or email@example.com for emergency purchasing needs.
Concur, the university's travel and expense system, will still be available to book travel and/or submit expense reports. However, no reimbursements will be performed between Friday, September 16 and Monday, September 19. Reimbursements will resume Tuesday, September 20, 2016.
While there are no major changes to the system, the look and feel has been updated in certain areas, particularly when creating ePro and M-marketsite transactions. The overview of changes and a variety of other useful information is available on the ITS upgrade website.
Kam McNabb, a contract administrator at ITS, is the most recent recipient of the quarterly Savings Victors award from Procurement Services. The award acknowledges purchasers from the university community who use procurement resources such as strategic contracts to contain costs and maximize resources on behalf of their units.
"By acting as a liaison between ITS and Procurement Services, Kam has been extremely helpful facilitating our contracting and sourcing efforts," said Ted Eisenhut, IT commodity manager, who nominated her for the award. "Beyond making sure departmental specifications and requirements are thorough, complete, and organized, she supports our mission and recognizes the importance of Procurement Services policies and procedures. Kam understands the dynamics of a business contract and the significance of our terms and conditions from the standpoint of protecting both the university and supplier and ensuring that what is ordered is ultimately what is delivered."
Kam's role allows Procurement Services employees to have a single point of contact within ITS and she always involves Procurement Services early in the RFx process. The time and effort she puts forth has had a positive impact in Procurement Services in a number of areas, including accuracy and turnaround times.
As a recipient of the Saving Victors award, Kam received a commemorative paperweight and a $25 gift card to Meijer. "This award came as a complete surprise," said Kam. "I am thrilled to be recognized by a group that I respect and enjoy working with so much. Our partnership has not only led to more efficient purchasing but significant savings as well. Thank you!"
Procurement Services has a strategic contract for coffee service with AVI Foodsystems. AVI was founded in 1960 and is the largest family owned and operated food service company in the United States.
The negotiated contract pricing runs through July 2018 and is expected to save the university approximately $75,000. Pricing for coffee and other related items including tea, cups, creamer, juice, water, soda, and snacks can be found on our website.
AVI offers free shipping and, as part of the contract, free installation and use of equipment. University orders are processed and delivered from the company's distribution center in Jackson, MI.
Jim's work on projects supporting future vehicle programs allowed him to see cars and trucks under development in the design studios that would not be seen on the road for several years. He supported purchasing efforts for everyday cars and trucks as well as low-volume prototype and specialty vehicles used in research.
As the construction and MRO commodity manager for Procurement Services, Jim leads the Facilities Procurement team. The team is responsible for purchasing architectural and engineering services, construction services and material and support services used for the maintenance, repair and operation (MRO) of university-owned buildings. The Facilities Team is located in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction offices and the Plant Facilities buildings near Michigan Stadium. Being located with its customer allows the team to provide a high level of day-to-day procurement support and respond quickly to immediate needs.
Speaking of stadiums, the Facilities Team provides procurement support to the construction, maintenance, and operations of the university's athletic venues, including university golf courses. Additionally, the Facilities Team provides construction and facility-related support for academic and research projects across the university, such as the construction of the new Biological Science Building and renovation of the Nuclear Engineering Laboratory. The team also supports the facility procurement needs of the Dearborn campus, assists the Flint campus on major projects, and even supports university research stations located well beyond Ann Arbor, such as a number of artificial fish reefs, located in the St. Clair and Detroit Rivers.
"Working in Facilities procurement at Michigan offers new opportunities that that keep us challenged and allows us to learn something new," said Jim. "Whether it's selecting a contractor for a major construction project, selling a decommissioned cyclotron, used in nuclear medicine, or the relocation of a rare and valuable collection of research objects, we continue to enjoy sharing in and supporting the activities that Make Blue Go!"
Jim is a Michigan alumni, who studied finance and economics, and lives in Novi. Cycling, skiing, photography, and travel are among the activities Jim enjoys. Jim can be reached at email@example.com or (734) 764-2240.

For a complete list of university travel contracts, search for Travel Services in the "search by commodity" field on the Procurement Services website.
Other benefits of booking university business travel in Concur or with Conlin Travel:
Property Disposition held another vehicle auction on August 13 at the Washtenaw Farm Council Grounds. Approximately 50 vehicles were sold, along with some miscellaneous equipment, for nearly $400,000. Vehicles sold included minivans, sedans, SUVs, box trucks, passenger buses, and an ambulance. The next auction is being planned for late fall. Details about the auction will be posted on the Property Disposition home page as soon as they're finalized.
Procurement Services, in partnership with several cross-functional teams from across the university, continued its cost containment efforts in FY2016 with the addition of the following strategic contracts and renegotiated agreements:
The projected annual savings from these contracting activities will exceed $7 million. The university has realized more than $70 million in savings since FY 2013 through its strategic sourcing efforts.
The Hospital Accounts Payable (AP) team joined the Shared Services Center (SSC) AP team on August 19, 2016. The transition is part of a U-M Hospitals and Health Systems' initiative to increase value and make both clinical and non-clinical areas more efficient. This consolidation of AP areas will provide efficiencies in payment processing and service to university customers and suppliers.

I begin today's piece with some interstitial, introductory discussions on a myriad of topics. And then I discuss my latest hero.
Austrian Niko Alm, is a self-professed Pastafarian and member in good standing of The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Three years after applying for a new driver's license, he finally received the official laminated card. And the picture infra shows him sporting a pasta strainer on his head, sideways, of course. He insisted upon wearing the headgear as, Mr. Alm assured authorities, it is a part of his faith system and qualified as such as it was "confessional headgear" as contemplated by the EU and Austrian regulations. Accordingly, the intrepid Alm sent his application for a new driver's license in 2008 along with a picture of himself with a colander, er, confessional headgear on his head. And he waited. And waited. Voila!
Adding insult to considerable injury, Austrian authorities demanded that Alm suffer a further indignity and receive a psych eval to determine whether he was mentally fit to operate an Austrian motor vehicle. He did and passed with flying colors. How many New York cabbies could claim that?
The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, according to its website, believes inter alia that "pirates, the original Pastafarians, were peaceful explorers and it was due to Christian misinformation that they have an image of outcast criminals today" and they are "fond of beer." He now wants to apply for Pastafarianism to become an officially recognized faith in Austria.
How dare anyone suggest what is and isn't a legitimate source of authentic faith. To me authentic faith is like authentic magic. But my opinion is not what matters nor does the government's. The bottom line is that we must accept your faith on, er, faith. No matter who utterly ridiculous it is. Amen.

So far we've covered British goings-ons in NYC and LA. Atlanta, GA is all sorts of Britished up! Check out 10 British Things About Atlanta:
1. Great Jubilee Family Festival
The festival takes place on Saturday, May 25, 2013 from 11:00am-4:30pm. There's a number of Britcentric activities like The Jubilee Cup where family members representing teams from Commonwealth countries have a friendly competition; The Downton Abbey Tea Room hosted by the Daughters of the British Empire; food vendors serving fish n' chips; an exhibition cricket match and a game affectionately called "Goal Save the Queen" … you can picture that set up!
2. Brits in Atlanta
Atlanta rolls out the welcome mat with an expat meetup group dedicated to helping newcomers acclimate to Hotlanta life. As of now the group has 583 members. Its mission statement, reads: "Come and meet other Brits in your area. This is a great way to meet others and share experiences of life abroad. We can't wait to meet you and have a chat over a pint down the pub!"
3. Atlanta British Motorcar Day
Calling all gearheads! The Atlanta British Motorcar Day also takes place on May, 25, the same day as the Great Jubilee Family Festival, but it deserves it's own shout out. It is an annual gathering of all of the British Car Clubs in the Atlanta, Georgia region. Check out this gallery from 2012. The event is now in its twenty seventh year and has grown to include over 500 cars. It happens rain or shine!

4. Taste of Britain
This British grocery store, located at 73 South Peachtree Street, offers a range of foods from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. It's more than a place to pick up eats but Brits and Anglophiles alike use it as a meeting place. If you can't make it to the store in person, it offers online shopping. If you don't see what you're looking for, Taste of Britain goes one step further inviting customers to email or call them with their request and they'll try their best to pick it up on their next trip to the UK! They get an A for effort.
5. The New American Shakespeare Tavern
This playhouse, located at 499 Peachtree Street, is home to The Atlanta Shakespeare Company, offering original practice performances of Shakespeare's plays. It offers a traditional British menu prior to the performance and an apple crisp at intermission. It has a similar feel to Shakespeare's Globe in London. Think Medieval Times but a bit more civilized.
6. North Atlanta Pipes & Drums
Georgia's bagpipe band is made up of seasoned musicians who love to pipe and drum. The group's repertoire includes "Scotland the Brave", "Rowen Tree", "Will Ye No Come Back Again". For the full set, go here.

If you want to witness a rough sport and show your support, check out their schedule, here.
8. The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society
Scottish country dancing (SCD) is mainly for fun versus competition. Participants are grouped into sets, typically of 3, 4 or 5 couples arranged either in two lines (men facing women) or in a square, and work together to dance a sequence of formations, according to the RSCDS website. The Atlanta branch offers ongoing classes and events consisting of social meet ups.
9. The Manchester Arms
This quaint Tudor-style house, located at 1705 Virgina Ave., has been turned into a neighborhood-pub. It's British fare includes fish and chips, shepherd's pie and bangers and mash. The restaurant is full of unique and historic decor, including a naval Union Jack flag that's over a hundred years old and a bar top made from reclaimed box-car wood. There are a number of British drinking holes and restaurants to choose from in the area but this one stood out as one of the coziest.
10. U.N.I.T of Atlanta
Atlanta has an entire group dedicated to you-know-who … the Doctor! U.N.I.T stands for United Nations Intelligence Task Force. The website describes the group as: "An opportunity for fans to view serials/episodes, meet, engage in discussion and just have fun."

On the very first week of the 2004-2005 school year, Gongaza High School theatre arts teacher Jacinta Mackey Graham had the impulsive idea to pull an extremely shy Grade 10 student out of his science class.
She'd been desperately on the lookout for male singers for the school's chamber choir, and had been tipped off about a potential vocalist but was told "good luck" getting him to sing in a choir.
He'd sing along to the radio in the car, or maybe while hanging out with his friends, but absolutely never in public.
But Mackey Graham was persistent, and she asked him to sing anything, even O Canada, just to let her see what his voice sounded like.
When he opened his mouth and started to sing, she knew right away he had a gift.
"I remember saying 'Oh my God' and [his] reaction was 'See I told you I can't sing' and I said, 'No, oh my God, this is a beautiful voice.'"
The singer? Steve Maloney, now the winner of multiple MusicNL awards, star of a recent production of Rent, and arguably one of the province's most well-known contemporary songwriters.
Reunited at ArtsNL awardsNearly 14 years later, the two are being honoured at April's ArtsNL awards.

Support GroupsIf you're feeling alone in your journey and need support or accountability, consider our support groups. We limit the size of groups to make the environment intimate and real.
Gap Fillers
A support group for parents and those whose loved ones experience same sex attraction or gender dysphoria.
How do Christian parents respond when their child tells them they are dating someone of the same gender? And they both say they love God?
Initially, you question everything.
- How can they believe this is okay?
- Where is God in all of this?
- What have we done wrong?
- Can we still have a relationship with our son or daughter?
"We know that God is Sovereign and still in control and we must trust our son to Him. We can't change his thinking. We need to trust in God's faithfulness.
We still love our son dearly and try to accept and love his partner too. Is this easy? No, but with God's help we can. We pray for them both. We have told our son that there are two things that will never change : God's love for him and our love for him.
This journey would have been far more difficult without support from Liberty and the Gap fillers group. We praise God for them."

- Snapchat is launching a new feature, called "Live," which will let users view live TV broadcasts.
- It's going to debut alongside NBC's coverage of the Winter Olympics, starting on Saturday.
- CEO Evan Spiegel has said that he sees deals like this as a way for Snapchat to make a bigger dent in Facebook's and Google's ad marketshare.
For the first time ever, Snapchat will let you use the photo chat app to watch live television, the company announced on Wednesday. And to kick it off, Snapchat will be airing highlights from the 2018 Winter Olympics on Saturday.
Snapchat is calling the service "Live." It allows broadcasters to air "snippets" of live content on Snapchat's Discover section.
Snapchat's first deal with Live is with NBCUniversal, which invested $US500 million in Snapchat when the company went public. Basically, Snapchat Live will air a single clip per day of a "pivotal moment," simultaneous with NBC's primetime broadcast of the Olympics.
These clips will typically last 2-6 minutes, Snapchat confirmed with Business Insider. And users can opt in for push notifications when Snapchat will be showing a clip live.
The announcement comes on the heels of Snap Inc., Snapchat's parent company, exceeding Wall Street earnings estimates on Tuesday. At the time, CEO Evan Spiegel lauded the company's efforts to partner with broadcasters as a way to capture some of the advertising dollars it's been losing to Facebook and Instagram.
The Live broadcast of the Olympics won't include advertising,The Wall Street Journal reported. But Snap told The Journal it is considering monetizing broadcasts in the future.
While it certainly could present a new revenue stream for Snapchat, not everybody is so convinced. Dan Rayburn, principal analyst at Frost and Sullivan, tells Business Insider that "it's too early to tell" what Snap could do with this – but that because the videos are so short, it may be harder for Snapchat to display multiple ads per video.
"We're still talking about short-form video here. This isn't a long video where they can put in 5 or 6 different ads. So I don't think this will impact Snap's bottom line at all," says Rayburn.
And yet, he says, the Olympics is a good fit for Snapchat and its audience: "It's not surprising Snap is doing this. Look at Snap's audience, it's a younger demographic. They want to promote content they think will appeal to a younger crowd," says Rayburn.
Snapchat appears to be doubling down on an already successful partnership with NBCUniversal, which produces "Stay Tuned," an original, Snapchat-only news program. E! Network and EPSN also have partnerships for original programming on the platform.

It made a difference to me on having the choices of classes and schedules. I did not want to be away from my child for long, at the first year of her life. The College made it easy to find the courses I needed and the diversity in the selection of times.Read More
I like being able to have classes online or on campus. The classes aren't to big and tuition is fairly cheap comparatively. The teachers and counselors are very friendly and helpful.Read More

It is the second Star War themed MMO after Star Wars Galaxies (also known as SWG), [url=http://www.swtorcredits.org/]swtor credits[/url] which still have a decent player base after 7 years of operation. It is said Lucas Arts ambitiously aims to defeat and overtake wow's position in the MMO market. This site is created to serve the needs of Star Wars: the Old Republic. We believe the new Star War franchise will be under spotlight. It is highly possible for them to achieve what their predecessors have done.ReplyDelete

Unsportsman Like Conduct Call on Peele
twoooo293116 replied to headlock83's topic in Past DiscussionsI've seen kids go crazy after matches and not get called for anything and have also seen kids get called for very minor celebrations. Officials need to be more aware of the emotions that are running high and the kids might not be thinking as much about their actions after punching that ticket to state they've been working their tail off for four years or that championship they just won. I personally enjoy some of the creative celebrations some wrestlers come up with. I think most things should be excepted as long as it is not disrespectful to the opponent, or too over the top. That's just how

A while ago I was working on a project in Django that had many tasks that needed to be executed asynchronously such as sending emails, generating reports, and checking some database related issues.
Executing asynchronous tasks in Python can be made in multiple ways, one of them is using celery, a distributed task queue written in Python which has proved itself to be a great solid task queue system.
And if you're using Django then there is a Django app to make your life easier, django-celery.
Now as always I like to make my own life easier also by implementing generic solutions for my needs, so I have written this simple piece of code to create a function decorator that declares the function as an asynchronous task, which means that by just adding this decorator to the function it becomes asynchronous.

Honeywell said on Friday it was seeing slower growth in China and that trade tariffs would squeeze margins and potentially cost it "hundreds of millions" of dollars in 2019.
Like most U.S. industrial companies, Honeywell is taking a hit from the ongoing trade war between Beijing and Washington, while China's economy shows signs of slowing.
Shares of the company, which makes everything from aircraft engines to catalysts used in petroleum refining, rose earlier in the day after better-than-expected quarterly results, but pared most of those gains by midday.
"We grew the Chinese market but not at the double-digit pace that we saw earlier in the year. So that's probably my number one area to watch," said Chief Executive Officer Darius Adamczyk. "As I look into 2019 … I think the U.S. is going to be a very robust market again."
Honeywell also said it expected to see some pressure on its margins next year when additional tariffs on Chinese exports could go into effect, raising the company's costs in "hundreds of millions" of dollars from "tens of millions" in 2018.
U.S. companies are putting in place measures, ranging from raising prices on products to increasing sourcing from countries other than China, to cushion the blow from escalating trade tensions.
"The hill gets steeper," Honeywell's Chief Financial Officer Greg Lewis said.
Honeywell lifted its full-year forecasts for cash flow and margins as it rode a boom in e-commerce driven warehouse investment and aircraft production.
The company has benefited from a rise in global travel that has driven record orders for jets, leading to robust demand for its avionics, braking systems and other aircraft parts.
Sales at the aviation unit, the company's biggest business, rose 10 percent to $4.03 billion. Margins expanded by 80 basis points to 22.1 percent in the third quarter ended Sept. 30.
The company has also taken advantage of a boom in e-commerce as it supplies warehouse automation equipment and software to customers such as Amazon.com.
Sales in safety and productivity solutions unit, which houses the warehouse automation business, climbed 11 percent to $1.58 billion, while margins jumped 150 basis points to 16.6 percent.
Excluding items, Honeywell earned $2.03 per share, beating analysts' average estimate of $1.99 per share, according to Refinitiv data.
The company's revenue rose 6.3 percent to $10.76 billion, topping the consensus of $10.75 billion.
Excluding the divestiture of some businesses, Honeywell said its full-year earnings will be in a range of $7.95 to $8.00 per share.

NYC Marathon planning moves forward after Superstorm Sandy
NEW YORK (AP) -- New York City Marathon organizers say they are moving ahead with plans for Sunday's race even as the city staggers through the aftermath of superstorm Sandy.
Five days before the marathon, public transportation was shut, airports closed and streets flooded, with power out in many neighborhoods
New York Road Runners said in a statement Tuesday that "the marathon has always been a special day for New Yorkers as a symbol of the vitality and resiliency of this city."
There's still the possibility of changes to the race because of the storm.
Nearly 20,000 amateur international runners need to get in the country. Another 30,000 or so American entrants must get to the starting line, with family and friends finding a way to viewing spots. It was unclear when public transit, river crossings and airports would reopen.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends and loved ones of the late Peter Duncan who has passed away.
A funeral service and time for thanksgiving for Peter will take place within Bellshill Central Parish Church on Thursday 27th April 2017 at 1.30pm. Rev'd Kevin de Beer will conduct the service. Thereafter a service of committal at Holytown Crematorium will take place.
There is no right or wrong way to grieve, everyone does it differently. As followers and believers in Christ, we turn to God's word to find strength and comfort as we grieve.
Psalm 23:4 "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me."
Matthew 5:4 "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted"

In the early hours of Friday, March 6th, 12 eager Gladiators embarked on a weekend excursion to the northern mountains of Abruzzo. After two unexpected detours, and an 8-hour bus journey spent getting to know one another, the gang finally made it to their cozy mountainside hotel.
After having settled in and reposed, a guided wildlife walking tour awaited the students. The group had the unique opportunity to stroll past, and observe packs of wolves and deer in their natural habitats.
To further work up an appetite for dinner, the group strapped on their snow boots and trekked in the snowy mountains as the sun set. Filled with regional delicacies, and excitement for the snow sport adventures ahead, card games provided an outlet for the overwhelming anticipation for the day ahead.
Rising sharp at 8 o'clock in the morning, the students packed their belongings and ate breakfast before it was off to the slopes! Some 20 minutes from the hotel stood the Pescasseroli slopes, tucked away in the midst of the mountains. Some Gladiators rushed straight to the higher inclines, whilst a few took it easy at the lower slants. Come lunchtime and the group were already tearing up the trails together, as everyone made notable progress in no time!
Alaskan Noelle Hilliker stated: "My favorite part was definitely the slopes. Being back in the snow made me wonder how I was able to go on so long without it!"
The consensus on the journey back to Rome further confirmed that the Winter Weekend Trip was definitely one of the best JCU has organized thus far, and needs to be repeated as soon as possible!

text: Brad Pitt's Mother Pens Anti-Gay, Anti-Obama Letter to Local Newspaper 4:24 PM PDT 7/5/2012 by Seth Abramovitch FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Getty Images Jane Pitt Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt - H 2012 Jane Pitt calls the president "a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage" just months after her son reveals his support of Obama in a THR cover story. An anti-gay letter urging Christians to vote for Mitt Romney that was printed today in The Springfield News-Leader has been confirmed by the newspaper as having been penned by Jane Pitt, mother of Brad Pitt. COVER STORY: The Many Revolutions of Brad Pitt The verification comes amid some confusion, as the Missouri newspaper first printed an editor's note denying any relation between the letter writer and movie star. That was later replaced with a second editor's note, reading, "To clear up earlier confusion, the News-Leader has verified the letter writer is the mother of actor Brad Pitt and local businessman Doug Pitt." The letter -- itself a response to another opinion piece in the newspaper justifying Christians' rights to refuse to vote for Romney because he is a Mormon -- identifies Mrs. Pitt as "a Christian [who differs] with the Mormon religion." But, Pitt continues, "any Christian should spend much time in prayer before refusing to vote for a family man with high morals, business experience, who is against abortion, and shares Christian conviction concerning homosexuality just because he is a Mormon." Pitt goes on to write that "any Christian who does not vote or writes in a name is casting a vote for Romney's opponent, Barack Hussein Obama — a man who sat in Jeremiah Wright's church for years, did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer, and is a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage." VIDEO: George Clooney, Brad Pitt and More of Hollywood Perform Prop. 8 Play '8' Along with Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt has long been an outspoken champion of gay rights. Pitt once told Ellen DeGeneres, "I've said that we would not be getting married until everyone in this country had the right to get married." The two nevertheless announced their engagement in April, after seven years and six children together. In January, Pitt said of his mother in a cover profile in The Hollywood Reporter, "She's very, very loving -- very open, genuine, and it's hilarious because she always gets painted in the tabloids as a she-devil. There's not an ounce of malice in her. She wants everyone to be happy." In the same story, the Moneyball star revealed his own support of Obama in the upcoming presidential election.

SOCIALKIT – Your Facebook Influence At A Glance
Posted by Daniel Goh on 7/30/12 • Categorized as Ideaspotting
If you're wondering how influential you really are on Facebook, look no more than with SOCIALKIT.
SOCIALKIT (www.socialkit.me) is a social influence visualization tool that aggregates your Facebook data and presents it in a very fun yet informative, infographic manner. Unlike Klout or Kred which comprehensively calculates your social influence on different social networking platforms and grades you with an actual aggregated score, your SOCIALKIT graph – which takes mere seconds to generate – gives you a simple snapshot on your social life on Facebook.
You'll find out on SOCIALKIT – developed by Another Good Thing, part of Singapore-based social influence marketing agency GOODSTUPH (we interviewed them here before) – who your Agony Aunt is (the friend who most comments on your status updates), or your wingman (that connection with whom you had the most check-ins with together). The graph also shows you the days you're most active on Facebook, who you're most tagged with in Facebook, and which is your top photo (the one with most likes and comments).
If Facebook was your business plan, SOCIALKIT would be its executive summary. You'll discover some facts you never knew about yourself, as did I when I generated my own SOCIALKIT. Go check it out now.
(Protip: You might not want to let the wife see that you're tagged more on Facebook photos with that sweet young thing than with her.)
Daniel Goh is the founder and chief editor of Young | Upstarts, as well as an F&B entrepreneur.

I really hate the flatlands, when I'm looking for some fun.
I'm looking for a river that has some rapids I can run.
I just got myself a new toy and I want to try it out,
But flaccid little waterways is all we have about.
There's no fun without danger and a bit of challenge too
round here the rivers are all tame where wildness one time grew.
I guess that it's flaccidity, maybe I'll find some trees
Surely this whole Universe hasn't been bought to its knees.
If the Gods meant it to be this tame why did they make me
With an inner urge to go out and run like I am free.

Millions of Americans live in homes with high levels of Radon. No structures are immune to high concentrations of Radon, and even the higher levels in an apartment building can have elevated levels of Radon. The only way to ensure that the tenants in your apartment building are not exposed, is to have the building tested.
We perform Radon testing in apartment buildings in Richmond, and surrounding counties. We adhere to the MAMF-2010 which is the authority on Radon testing in multi-family buildings. After you contact us, we will visit your property and perform an assessment to determine the best locations to test for Radon.
If you are buying an apartment complex, or are concerned about your current tenants, Call us at 804-269-4321

Johanna Hemara's musical journey began before she had reached double figures, singing with her mother and father in variety shows from age 6.
She was never taught to sing, it came naturally as did an inherited ability to yodel from her Austrian mother, like many child performers, by age 12 Johanna decided she'd had enough and turned her back on music. But it wasn't long before the passion returned and Johanna set about making a new name for herself. incorporating contemporary country alongside the yodelling.
She also spends time touring the cabaret scene, earning a reputation as one of the finest in the business.
Releasing her debut album "Goodnight Sweetheart", and making the finals of the Toyota Starmaker competition, Johanna knew she had made the right decision. It was time to get serious and follow the heart. Johanna's final hurrah before focusing purely on contemporarymaterial came with the claiming of an Australian yodelling championship title in 2008.
For album two Johanna employed the sevices of renowned producer Herm Kovac. The 12 tracks on"starting Over" show off Johanna's amazing vocal ability, as well as her potential as a songwriter. Singles, "Starting Over" and "The Flame" (a cover of the Cheap Trick classic) were well received by radio reaching the top 30 country charts in Australia and the UK.

GlobalPlatform develops and maintains a certification program to promote a collaborative and open ecosystem where digital services and devices can be trusted.
Certifying secure components within devices is essential in facilitating collaboration between service providers and device manufacturers.
GlobalPlatform's work to develop and maintain a certification program allows stakeholders to verify product adherence to the association's technical specifications and market-specific configurations.
Device manufacturers that use GlobalPlatform-certified secure components can proactively market their products as meeting the functional and security needs of digital service providers. They can effectively illustrate that their digital service management capabilities are interoperable and meet industry defined security requirements.
Service providers recognize this level of assurance, which enables them to select a product which matches their security and privacy needs.
The internationally recognized program is independently operated by a dedicated Certification Secretariat. It is referenced by EMVCo, GSMA and other industry bodies, with testing performed on certified tools, provided by GlobalPlatform-approved laboratories globally.
To achieve certification, a product must be submitted to a GlobalPlatform-accredited laboratory and competently pass several tests to meet the security evaluation and/or functional testing criteria. The laboratory sends its test report to the GlobalPlatform Certification Secretariat for evaluation and issuance of a certificate. Products that have successfully completed certification testing receive a Letter of Qualification.
Functional Certification
For SE and TEE products
The program evaluates the functional behavior of a product against the requirements outlined by GlobalPlatform configurations and associated specifications to achieve market interoperability. Independent testing provides confirmation that a digital service will perform as intended in the field on any certified product, regardless of the product provider.Learn more about Functional Certification
Security Certification
For TEE products
The program confirms conformance of TEE products to the Common Criteria recognized GlobalPlatform Protection Profile, through independent security evaluation. It ensures that secure components meet the required levels of security defined for a particular service, enabling service providers to comply with industry requirements and manage risk effectively.Learn more about Security Certification

MARYVILLE, Tenn. (CBS Local) — A new billboard that advocates the separation of church and state is starting to stir passions in east Tennessee.
The billboard, sponsored by the Freedom From Religion Foundation, reads: "God & Government: A Dangerous Mix. Keep State & Church Separate."
It was installed on Monday and can be seen on the northbound side of Highway 129 in Maryville.
East Tennessee FFRF chapter president, Aleta Ledendecker, says the billboard is not targeting any particular issue and was erected in Blount County at this time simply because the space was available. She hopes the message gets people thinking.
What are your thoughts? An East TN group's billboard reads: 'God & Government, A Dangerous Mix' https://t.co/ZGQhkFUzvI
— WJHL (@WJHL11) October 30, 2019
"Our government is really supposed to be a secular government. Lots of people in East Tennessee are very comfortable with the idea of inserting religion into government and I think this is a very important message for people to see," she told WATE.
But Bryan Abell, who has driven by the billboard, describes the billboard as "disturbing."
"I think it promotes people to think more of government and less on God," he said. "To remove God's moral character from government, in my opinion, our founding fathers used the Bible to create the founding documents."
The billboard will be up for the next four weeks.
"I just hope a lot of people see it and it starts a conversation," said Ledendecker.

Achill Island is a very long way away from Kerry and I had arrived there very late on Friday, at 11 o'clock, because the drive had taken much longer than anticipated. Thankfully my bed was still available (I had visions of having to sleep in the car) but I was utterly exhausted when I finally got there. Just under 6 hours later I was awake again and got ready for the day. It was unlikely to be the optimal preparation for an ultra but there you go. Next time I'll take some time off work though, to give myself an easier time.

It's on that stretch that we encountered the one organisatorial hitch of the day. There was supposed a table with our own supplies at mile 7 but when I got to the station that I thought was the one at mile 9, my stuff wasn't there. I didn't really mind, I wasn't racing this one and if you put supplies into a box there is always a chance that you won't be seeing it again, it has all happened before. It took me a mile or two to realise that there had been a water table at about mile 5. I had not seen a supply box but that must have been the one. I would get there at the next loop.

I was almost at the top of the third climb when the trouble started: my left calf was starting to cramp. I walked a few steps to alleviate the cramping before starting to slowly jog again. I reached the top but the cramping continued even on the next, gentle, downhill stretch. That was not good. I was only at mile 22 and still had 17 miles to go and I really did not fancy battling with cramping legs for that amount of time and distance. Luckily, it then subsided again. Maybe the orange slice I ate at the aid station helped wit electrolyte balance, maybe it was the cup of water but most likely it was the fact that the next few miles were gradually downhill and I was able to take it easy and as the effort level dropped the leg recovered somewhat. I finished loop 2, and the full marathon, in 3:48 but I knew the third lap wasn't going to be all fun and games. Donna later told me she could see I was struggling a bit.

What I did not appreciate was the fact that the aid station was not here! I was rather taken aback, surely they would not leave the ultra runners to their own devices on the third loop, when they needed help the most! However, there was not much I could do but battle on. A mile later I caught up to another friend, Paolo, possibly the nicest person out there, run/walking the marathon with his wife, and before I could even ask for a sip of water he had already handed me bottle! Thank you Paolo, you have no idea how parched I felt at that point and just how much you helped! Another mile later I unexpectedly came upon the aid station - they had not abandoned us but moved (they had been supposed to be at that second spot all along, Donna told me afterwards). Since I had not picked up my bottle at the first loop I still had 2 in there but only took one because I did not fancy carrying two heavy bottles with me. However, I must still have been badly dehydrated because I drained the one bottle that I had taken in less than a minute. I almost turned back to pick up my second one, but didn't.
I passed the early race leader (the guy in yellow) after 33 miles and he was clearly suffering. A better pacing strategy would almost certainly have saved him a fair amount of pain!

I passed Anto on the out-and-back section. "Your name will be Muck if I catch you!" He must have been about half a mile behind, with 4 miles to go so that seemed safe enough, but the legs really stopped cooperating. It was mostly the left calf but the right one joined in occasionally as well. I experimented with changing my gait - heel striking actually worked a bit better than midfoot landing and keeping the legs as relaxed as possible may have provided some very minor improvement. I stopped at a wall and tried stretching the muscles. In the end I had to concede, nothing really worked, I could just run for a bit until the cramps came, would have to walk for a bit and then repeat the process, rinse and repeat.

I finished in 5:55:47 (on my own watch), a personal worst for 39.3 miles, but since the main goal had been to run without re-injuring the hip (or without acquiring a new injury for that matter) this was actually a success. Going under 6 hours was a minor bonus as well, not that it really mattered. Don Hannon had indeed won but he too had battled cramps for several miles at the end and had almost been caught by the leading lady. He was very gracious to state that I would have won today had I been in form, but I had not and I did not and he was the clear and deserved winner, congratulations. The ladies' winner, Dee Grady, came seemingly out of nowhere to rack up a first win in her first ultra - very impressive and there may well be a major talent about to be uncovered.
As for myself, I had driven almost 6 hours to get there, slept for almost 6 hours, ran for almost 6 hours and drove back home for almost 6 hours, a major expedition and a rather exhausting one. However, my legs felt surprisingly good on Sunday morning and I did my usual 5-mile recovery run feeling much better than expected. I guess the slow pace means I wasn't as taxed as I might otherwise have been.

Systems Management Question
K2000 no RSA sync
08/04/2014 4149 views
Anyone experienced this issue before?
Basically I cannot sync to any of our RSA's, it sits on the status saying "Remote site sync waiting on server task queue" but the task queue is idle. Clicking into the names of any of the RSA's results in an almost blank page being loaded.
I've tried several restarts of both the K2000 appliance and the RSA box. I've also tried deleting the RSA to re-add it but this results in the same happening.
I've attempted to log a call about this but heard nothing back fr quite a number of days now. Pretty poor if you ask me. Anyways, hopefully someone here can help!

Just thought I'd update for anyone who may experience the same issue, this happens when no default boot option is selected for the K2000. In our case we had rebuild our KBE for the x64 builds, and hadn't yet re-assigned it to the default as we were still testing it. Pretty strange issue! Dell finally came back to me after 1 week of no builds at our remote sites.
