Cresconius (Spanish: Cresconio) (c. 1036 – 1066) was a bishop of Iria Flavia and Santiago de Compostela during the eleventh century. He succeeded Vistruarius (Vistruario).(...)Cresconius believed that, because Santiago was the burial place of Saint James the Greater, that his see naturally occupied a superior place amongst the dioceses of the West as an "apostolic see." To this end, he proclaimed himself Episcopus Iriensis et Apostolicae Sedis. However, this assumption was not supported by Rome and Pope Leo IX excommunicated him at the Council of Rheims (1049). Nevertheless, Cresconius continued using this title, and the bishops of Lugo, Dumio, Oviedo, and Oporto acknowledged his authority and primacy.In 1060, he presided over the Council of Compostela where he prohibited the use of weapons by clerics, and also forbade that clerics be married. He opened parochial schools and fought pagan superstitions that dated to even before the Roman conquest of Galicia.

Russell Simmons says he's just fine with his estranged wife, Kimora Lee Simmons, spending time with Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou.
"He's a wonderful guy, a very sweet guy," Simmons, 49, told PEOPLE Monday at the New York City premiere of HBO's Life Support. "I want her to be happy no matter what."
Kimora, 31, and Hounsou, 42, have been spotted getting cozy all over Los Angeles recently, having dinner at Mr. Chow, holding hands at Il Sole and kissing at Hollywood hot spot Winston's.
A rep for Hounsou had no comment. Kimora's rep, Keesha Johnson, told PEOPLE Tuesday, "I'm not commenting on it at this point."
Simmons said he's not sure of the pair's romantic status. "I don't know what they're doing, but he's a nice guy," he told PEOPLE. "She'd better be happy. He's one of the sweetest guys in the world."
"We're best friends and partners," Simmons said Monday. "We have our businesses together and our children and we do everything for our children, no matter what."

[0001]This invention relates to apparatus for use in methods of cosmetic
surgery and to such methods.
[0002]Aging is associated with the development of lines and wrinkles caused by actinic damage, gravitational effect, sleep lines, and muscular action. Skin wrinkles are grooves in the skin. Wrinkles can be on the surface of the skin or can be quite deep. Wrinkles may be categorized as either static (persistent, permanent) or dynamic (expression related). Dynamic facial wrinkles occur due to movement or muscle activity in the affected area, associated with repeated facial movements, such as frowning or even heavy natural use of facial expressions (raising eyebrows, laughing, etc). Dynamic wrinkles (our focus) will improve by reducing the muscle activity in the affected area.
[0003]Many facial muscles of expression insert on to the undersurface of the skin. Following contraction, including baseline muscle tone, a visible line or wrinkle will develop in the skin that will deepen permanently over time. This type of wrinkle cannot be removed by any type or superficial skin treatment, but can only be treated at the source: the muscle itself.
[0004]Facial expression depends on the balance of agonist-antagonist muscle interactions. As an example the brow position is governed by a balance between elevator (frontalis) and depressor (orbicularis; corrugators; procerus) muscles. If the depressor muscles are weakened or paralysed the elevators become dominant and the brow position rises. The same is true for other areas. The corners of the lips are elevated (levator anguli oris) or depressed (depressor anguli oris) by different muscles, thus to lift the corner of the mouth depressors would be weakened or paralysed. This theory is adapted to many areas of the face.
[0005]Aside from altering the status of muscle balance, individual muscles may be selected for weakening or paralysis to diminish its affect on the skin in that particular area.
[0006]Known techniques for ablation of the nerves causing muscle movement are known. These include the use of toxins such as Botulinum toxin (known commercially as Botox® and Dysport®) which are produced by bacteria called Clostridium botulinum. Botox® acts by blocking acetylcholine, a chemical that is responsible for transmitting electrical impulses that cause muscle contraction. This results in muscle paralysis. The resultant paralysis, however, is temporary, as the new growth of nerves will re-innervate the muscles. This treatment has disadvantages making the process inefficient. Experience has shown that these are inaccurate in the their nerve targeting and unpredictable in their efficiency and the length of time of this effect.
[0007]Direct excision of nerves and electric ablation is very invasive and destructive. It involves side effects of scarring, substantial surrounding tissue damage and necessity for significant anaesthesia. Previous attempts at radio frequency (RF) ablation of the nerve group involved the use of a percutaneous insertion of an insulated bipolar needle vertically through the eyebrow skin to entrap the corrugator nerve plexus. This too is invasive and causes tissue damage as well as being rather inefficient.
[0008]U.S. Pat. No. 7,238,183 (Kreindel) describes a method for treating a skin target being a skin defect such as a vascular lesion, pigmented lesion, acne, unwanted hair or wrinkle. The method includes heating the target by optical means, cooling the skin and then applying radio frequency heating to the target. This will affect the target e.g. by ablating muscle. Although this process is a significant step forward because it is non-invasive, the process suffers from the disadvantage that, especially when working with wrinkles in the face, the location of the target being treated transcutaneously cannot be accurately determined by the surgeon. As there are so many tiny muscles (and nerves) involved in different movements of the face in the event that the target is not correctly determined, it is be easy inadvertently to cause unwanted weakening or paralysis of a facial movement.
[0009]According to one aspect of the invention there is provided a method of non-invasive treatment of the human body by ablating a muscle or a nerve controlling the muscle, the method comprising stimulating a muscle to emit an electromyographic signal, detecting the electromyographic signal to ascertain the location of the said muscle or alternatively the nerve, heating the said muscle or nerve by means of optical energy cooling the skin in the vicinity of the said muscle or nerve, and applying radio frequency energy to the muscle or nerve to ablate or partially to ablate said muscle or nerve.
[0010]According to another aspect of the invention there is provided a surgical appliance for ablating selected muscles or nerves of a patient comprising: an implement having a working surface which can be applied to the surface of the body of the patient, the said working surface carrying: a cathode and an anode with suitable electric powering devices, the cathode being arranged to emit an electric power pulse which will stimulate the targeted muscle; a detecting device which will detect an electromyographic (EMG) pulse emitted by the targeted muscle and which will emit a signal when it has so detected the said electric pulse so that the location of the target will be determined; a pair of spaced optical energy emitting devices which can heat the targeted muscle or nerve, cooling means arranged to cool the skin through which the optical energy must pass, and a pair of radio frequency electrodes connectable to a source of radio frequency electric current and being located so that when actuated they heat the target to oblate it.
[0011]The radio frequency electrodes are preferably bi-polar electrodes. They may be arranged to be connected selectively to the source of radio frequency electric current and to the electric powering device. The electrodes are located at a distance allowing a suitable depth of penetration conveniently being placed 12 to 16 mm apart to allow for a RF depth of penetration of approximately six to eight millimetres.
[0012]The optical energy emitting devices are preferably such as to provide an optical light wavelength long enough to reach the target organ with the energy levels of light are sufficiently great to preheat the organ so that the radio frequency can ablate or significantly impede target nerve or muscle function.
[0013]The optical energy emitting devices may comprise a laser conveniently having a sapphire light emitter.
[0014]An embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing which shows a unit for use in cosmetic aesthetic treatment of the face.
[0015]Referring now to the drawing there is shown a surgical unit 10 of the invention. The unit 10 comprises a cylindrical operating implement 12 which is of such dimensions as to be able to be easily and accurately manipulated by a surgeon for example being in the shape of a thick pen having dimensions of 25 mm diameter and 210 mm long. The unit 10 further comprises two electric power packs 14 and 16 which provide radio frequency power to stimulate a muscle respectively. In addition there is a source 18 of cool gases. The power packs 14 and 16 which are connected to the rear end wall 20 of the implement 12 through suitable cabling 22 and 24. The source of cool gases 18 is connected thereto by a flexible fluid conduit 26. The cabling 22 is also connected to a detector box 28 to be described more fully below.
[0016]The front end of the implement 12 is comprised by a smooth and flat end working surface 30 lying at right angles to the axis 32 of the implement 12 and being connected to the cylindrical wall of the implement 12 by a rounded peripheral corner 32.
[0017]Formed on the end surface 30 are a pair of bi-polar electrodes 34 and 36. The electrodes 34 and 36 are spaced apart (centre to centre) by a distance equal to about twice the depth of the targeted muscle. Conveniently this distance is between 12 mm and 16 mm. By means of suitable switch means (not shown) the electrodes 34 and 36 can be connected to either power pack 14 and 16. Also formed on the end surface between the electrodes 34 and 36 is a rectangular sapphire light guide 38 forming part of a laser which is capable of emitting light in the range of 570 to 590 nm at an optical energy of 10 J/cm2.
[0018]Within the unit 10 and having an end section running adjacent to the end surface 30 is an internal conduit 40 through which cool gases from the source 18 are directed.
[0019]Also within the implement 12 at the end surface 30 there is a preamplifier pod (not shown). This pod is arranged to carry out the following two actions. First it supplies power to the electrodes 32 and 334. Second it detects any EMG signal (i.e. any signal emitted by the muscle when stimulated) that is received by the electrodes 34 and 36 and transmits such EMG signal to the detector box 28.
[0020]The detector box 28 serves as a nerve monitor. It, the detector box 28, is connected via the cabling 22 to the bi polar electrodes 34 and 36 from which it receives an EMG signal. The detector box 28 has a display 42 for indicating a signal which has been received from a muscle as will be described. The display 42 may comprise an oscilloscope display unit but preferably may be a bar code display. The display preferably includes a control to change the colour of the display when the EMG signal increases to a level which would indicate that the location of the nerve or muscle. The detector box 28 may also incorporate an audible signal means which will provide an audible signal when the EMG signal increases to a level which would indicate that the location of the muscle has been located. Alternatively the audible signal means may merely amplify the EMG signal so that the surgeon will be able to ascertain therefrom the location of the muscle.
[0021]In use, the patient will be anaethtised normally by the surgeon will manipulate the implement to pass the end surface 30 of the implement 12 over the skin of a patient in the general location of the muscle which it is desired to ablate.
[0022]Direct current provided by the power pack 16 is applied to the bipolar electrodes to stimulate the muscles below the skin. The electrodes provide a 200μ pulse at an output range of 0.05 mA to 5 mA. When the implement is close enough to the muscle and/or the nerve controlling for the muscle to be bridged by the electrodes 34 and 36, the muscle will contract when it is acted upon by the pulse from the electrodes. During such contraction the EMG signals of very small voltage (of the order of a millionth to a few thousandth of a volt) are emitted. These signals are detected by the preamplifier pod which sends an appropriate signal to the detector box 28. The surgeon will now be aware of the location of the muscle that is to be ablated. The surgeon will now alter the setting of the implement so that the following actions take place. First the end surface 30 of the implement 12 is cooled by the coolant gases which pass through the internal conduit 40 to reduce the temperature of the surface 30 to about 10° C. which in turn will cool the dermis to about 10° C. The optical energy is now applied by the laser and this will raise the temperature of the targeted muscle relative to the surrounding tissue. The electrodes 34 and 36 are then connected by the pod to the radio frequency power pack 14 so that a radio frequency pulse is applied to the heated targeted muscle to ablate the muscle.
[0023]Because the distance apart of the electrodes 34 and 36 is between twelve and sixteen millimetres this will allow an RF depth penetration of approximately six to eight millimetres.
[0024]The degree of ablation is controlled by the surgeon who controlls the dosage of radio frequency applied. Desirably the ablation is not complete or irreversible. This will mean that the muscle will not cause the skin to appear to be paralysed but will only allow small and aesthetically acceptable movements under control of the muscle. Furthermore the muscle will in due course recover its strength. The dosage for ablation is preferably arranged so that muscle will regain its strength between three months and two years but preferably in about one year.
[0025]The treatment above described can be used inter alia on the corrugator muscles, procerus, lateral orbicularis levator alaeque nasi muscle, depressor anguli oris and platysma muscles, crows feet, glabella, brow depression, lower lid puffiness turnup tip of the nose, dimpling of the chine, smokers lines around the mouth and neck bands. Due to such ablation the muscles will not form corrugations or wrinkles on the skin with a significant aesthetic improvement of the face. In addition the treatment can be used to ablate the protagonist and antagonist muscles controlling turning down of the corners of the mouth and brow depression.
[0026]It has been found that with partial ablation of the muscle this will result in a softening of expression rather than an unnatural paralysis. After a period of time, depending upon the treatment, as menitoned above, the ablated muscle will regain its strength and further treatment will be required. This is generally regarded as a minor inconvenience when compared to the alternative of having a "paralysed look".
[0027]It will be seen that by having the end surface 30 of the implement 12 on the surface of the skin of the patient, the EMG signal can more easily be detected. Furthermore this will avoid extraneous noise from affecting such detection.
[0028]It will be understood that the patient will normally be anaesthetised during the treatment. This is effected by a local anaesthetic block by blocking the nerve being ablated or that which controls muscle to be ablated. Such block taking place away from the actual area being treated. Typically when muscles in the upper lip are being ablated, an injection is given into the cheek just below the eye. Thus it can be seen that the patient will be awake during the procedure and the procedure can take place in the surgeon's rooms. Of course if desired or if the patient is having another procedure, the procedure of the invention can take place with the patient being under a general anaesthetic.
[0029]It will further be seen that this technique will provide very satisfactory non-invasive cosmetic and aesthetic treatment with the added advantage that no toxins are introduced into the body of the patient. The techniques provides the ability to act transcutaneously non-invasively (i.e without cutting the skin). All other treatments require cutting open the skin or piercing it with needles before delivering the RF dose. In addition the muscle (or nerve) is accurately targeted so that other tissues of the patient are not damaged during this process. This is an important advantage because there are so many tiny muscles (and nerves) involved in different movements of the face and it would be easy to cause unwanted weakening or paralysis of a facial movement if the target is incorrectly selected. It will also be noted that by stimulating the area before the RF shot, one is mimicking the movement that will be directly affected by the RF so the result becomes more predictable.
[0030]The invention is not limited to the precise details hereinbefore described. For example the surgeon may use the EMG signal to detect the location of the nerve which controls the particular muscle that is causing the unwanted wrinkling etc. By ablation of the nerve the action of the muscle will be reduced. The shape and form of the surgical device may vary as desired. The distance apart of the electrodes may vary in dependence upon the depth of the nerve or muscle which it is desired to locate and to ablate. As an alternative this may be that the electrodes located a about six to ten millimetres apart so that they can heat tissue between three and five millimetres below the dermis. If desired the electrodes can be mounted in a way which would permit their relative location to be adjusted. The surgeon may detect the position of the muscle to be ablated by seeing the movement of the muscle whifh is transmitted through the skin. Thus the detector box and display may be omitted.

Halo: Reach beta to contain "huge chunk" of sandbox play
The Halo: Reach beta, due to start on May 3, is going to contain a sizeable amount of play, if Bungie's Brian Jarrard is to be believed.
"The public beta is going to include a huge chunk of Reach sandbox goodness," the developer told Game Informer.
"I think players will actually be surprised at how much is there, but in order to maintain the core game experience and get useful feedback, we needed to include a well-rounded offering."
Don't worry, though. The freebie isn't going to spoil the final experience.
"Suffice it to say there will still be surprises waiting in the final game this fall," Jarrard added.
There's a ton of information through there on what's the be included in the beta, such as weapons, vehicles, maps and so on. Great interview: give it some time.

Here's how it works:
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
What has worked for me is the following.
1 - Hanging up signs in a few local Shuls saying that I am looking for a Chavrusa during the following hours to learn the following type of learning, with my phone number.
2 - Asking neighbors if they are looking to learn with someone.
3 - Asking my Rabbi if he can suggest anyone.
Hatzlacha upon your quest.
This site can help chavrusa match
Take a look at http://yagdiltorah.org/chavrusa. I don't know how active it is, but you can take a look there.

Great song
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Holy FU¢k
This the most epic song I have heard on Newgrounds. And maybe ever. The only thing I know this epic is the Russian Army song from Call of Duty5. So, congrats!
Great use of the anvils.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
i think you should learn how to direct, or whatever you call it, an orchestra group, so you can play this with a real orchestra group! that would be oh, so, awesome.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Epicness at its max. expression...
Wow man, each time I hear your songs they impress me even more, they're just too awesome, makes me want to make a flash movie just to use them XD, this song sounds good for a scene where the main antagonist resurges, after a short-lived sensation of victory for the heroes, and suffers a transformation, showing it's true form, and the real final battle begins, anyway, good job and keep it up!

The History Program offers a major in history and a minor in history.
The nine-course history major serves students who not only seek an education in the liberal arts, but who also realize the value of history for understanding themselves and their world. Because the study of history enhances analytical, communicative and critical thinking skills, and because our courses often encourage an interdisciplinary approach, a history major prepares students for careers in research, public service, education and/or the private sector, while also offering a strong foundation for advanced study.
Upon successful completion of major requirements students will be able to:1. Employ tools of historical analysis such as cause and effect, sequence and change over time to explain past experiences and developments.2. Define a historical question and use appropriate methodologies to develop and evaluate possible answers.3. Find evidence and evaluate primary and secondary sources to form sustainable conclusions in a well-argued paper.4. Articulate and/or resolve conflicting interpretations and explain the changing nature of historical inquiry.5. Communicate original, convincing ideas in well-organized oral and written formats.6. Identify and explain central themes and problems of the Western World.7. Identify and explain central themes and problems of a non-western culture.
Note: HIS 499 requires students to submit a portfolio of written work. History majors should keep copies of papers and projects from their other classes for this purpose.
Required Support Courses (Required for primary majors only)
Completion of a Modern Language through 201.
Teacher Certification
The department recommends that students majoring in history who seek certification to teach at the early adolescence through adolescence (formerly 6 - 12) level complete the requirements for the Broad Field Social Studies license. Please contact a history faculty member regarding these requirements.
The State of Wisconsin requires content area examinations (Praxis II) in order to receive certification to teach at the early adolescence through adolescence level and to adequately demonstrate competence. For this reason, students seeking to teach history at this level are urged to take History 103, 104, 105, 106 and 108.
Click here for a four year plan with a major in History.
Bachelor of Arts Requirement
The requirements for a Bachelor of Arts are:
For a complete list of CCD courses, click here.
Three additional courses at the 200-and 300-course levels. One of those three courses must be a 300-level research course and not all of them may be taken in United States History.

Just a few years ago, Holden and Ford were the only manufacturers competing in Australia's V8 Supercars series. But those days were left long ago in a cloud of smoke on the track, and are only disappearing even further in the rearview mirror as the latest intel suggests Lexus could be ready to enter the series as well.

Lexus is hardly the first brand that comes to mind when comes to motorsports. In fact, it's not even the first Japanese brand. But Toyota's premium marque is showing new signs of understanding that it will need to at least pay racing further lip service if it wants to be viewed as a more emotionally connected brand with the wherewithal to challenge the Germans on every level.
Lexus RC F GT3 Racing Concept threatens to go racing
- Jonathon Ramsey
- Feb 28, 2014
In case you needed more proof that the Lexus RC F is a statement car intended to scream "This is not your father's brand" (yes, we're paraphrasing the tagline of another automaker), here it is: the Lexus RC F GT3 Racing Concept. Lexus introduced a GT500-spec version of the RC F at the Tokyo Auto Salon last month, but this GT3-spec entrant and its Reading Rainbow paint job will get to show off at the Geneva Motor Show to whet the appetites of European racing outfits.

The start of the walk in the Breamish Valley, and the view from our lunch spot
Climbing up to the first hill fort. It doesn't show, but is was very windy.
Ros ahead of me
360 degree panorama from the first hill fort. These forts date from the Iron Age, when apparently the weather was a lot warmer, so people lived and farmed on the hills. No mention of having too many cars though!
A closer look at the fort, now a circle of stones, but their are identifiable buildings (if you know what to look for).
Heading into the wind to the next fort.
The view up the Breamish Valley
Surrounding countryside
The shadows were racing across the ground
The second hill fort. The little black dots are the heads of Duke of Edinburgh Award students.
The view to the south
Unusually Holly decided to have a good roll
She seems to have enjoyed it
More countryside
Trees will grow just about anywhere
We'd crossed this valley about 400 yards away and an hour or so ago
Heading back towards the car, which is in the next valley

First, I would say the is a very good hotel, definitely not 5 star, but a good 4 star hotel. It is very modern, very North American style new hotel, almost hip (but not quite) - if you like that, you'll be happy. But it is away from the charm of Amsterdam, not even close to being a romantic spot, you have to walk thru 15mins of vacant dockland to get to it. So, if you are looking for charm, romance and the Amsterdam experience, this is not your hotel. If you are looking for a great busines hotel, this is perfect. The service at the hotel is excellent, rooms are excellent, free wi-fi, business center - everything you need for business. Oh, and one other thing - make sure you don't get a room next to the elevators - you won't sleep - they are very noisy. I was given one these rooms, in 5 mins I called the front desk and put me in another room - and they were very good about it.

Background: Cardiac manifestations of Whipple disease are rarely diagnosed before death.
Objective: To describe four patients with endocarditis caused by Tropheryma whippelii who did not have overt gastrointestinal disease.
Design: Case series.
Setting: Five hospitals in eastern Switzerland.
Patients: Three men and one woman undergoing replacement of insufficient heart valves.
Measurements: Histologic characteristics of heart valves and intestinal biopsy; broad-range and specific polymerase chain reaction for T. whippelii.
Results: Tropheryma whippelii was found in the heart valves (three aortic valves and one mitral valve) of four patients with culture-negative endocarditis necessitating valve replacement. All patients had arthralgia for different lengths of time. Only one patient had mild gastrointestinal symptoms. Histologic characteristics of intestinal mucosa were normal in all patients, and polymerase chain reaction on intestinal biopsy was positive for T. whippelii in only one patient, who did not have diarrhea. In all patients, arthralgia resolved promptly after institution of antibiotic therapy. Disease did not recur in any patient after prolonged antibiotic therapy with cotrimoxazole.
Conclusion: In patients with culture-negative endocarditis, the absence of clinical, microscopic, or microbiological evidence of gastrointestinal disease did not rule out T. whippelii.
All photographs show histologic views of the aortic valve of patient 1. Macroscopic view. Thickened sclerotic and calcified valve with chronic vegetations and focal ulceration (van Gieson-Elastin; original magnification, ×3). Fibrinoleukocytic vegetation on the valve near the annular portion (van Gieson-Elastin; original magnification, ×25). Periodic acid-Schiff-positive inclusions in presumed necrotic macrophages, surrounded by fibrin and several leukocytes (periodic acid-Schiff; original magnification, ×100). Abundant rod-shaped bacteria, dispersed and in clumps (Warthin-Starry silver impregnation; original magnification, ×630).

Field Service Tech Talk: Integrating Field Operations Into Your Big Data Strategy
By Christine Friscic-Oracle on Aug 07, 2015
Oracle Service Cloud's field service management solution, Oracle Field Service Cloud, works by collecting lots of data points to make accurate predictions. So naturally, we get a lot of questions that sound like "If I can collect all this data from the field to run my field operations, should I be thinking about a big data strategy, too?"
To help answer this question, I'm bringing in Jeffrey Wartgow – he's a director of product management for Oracle Service Cloud, and an expert on the field service management market and how the shifting technology landscape is affecting it – including big data.
Christine Friscic (CF): Big data is getting a lot of attention these days. It feels very similar to when cloud became a hot topic – lots of people are talking about it, but there isn't much practical advice or direction! What do people in the mobile workforce management world need to know?
Jeffrey Wartgow (JW): Field service is an important part of operations, and you should absolutely include field service data in your big data strategy. But that doesn't mean you should have a "field service big data system." In principle, big data is holistic, and so you need to have as much data coming into the system as possible, in real-time and from all areas of your business. So, think of the tenants of big data as the three Vs – volume, velocity and variety.
A true big data solution is a company-wide effort: it should blend field service data with sales data, asset data, customer data and any other data you are collecting, and then analyze that data as a whole to determine what the larger trends are that may be hiding in that data. The result: the trends you identify by looking at all collected data holistically will ultimately help you make more informed decisions that will benefit both the entire organization and individual functions.
CF: That clears up some misnomers about big data in general. As a next step, how should people who work with a field service team be thinking about their own big data contribution?
JW: Look at the logistics of how you are managing your field employees. Are you using a field service management solution to manage your field work? If so, that solution is likely collecting information about the way your employees perform work in the field – from how long it takes individual employees to complete certain types of jobs to their personal break habits.
Here's one potential outcome from blending this data with data from other parts of the business, such as customer support: field service employees can act as field sales reps. When a field technician knows the customer's past buying habits, and even buying habits in that customer's geographical location, he can make a more accurate targeted upsell pitch and even schedule a delivery appointment on the spot.
CF: Okay, we know what kind of data to collect. But how should we collect this data?
JW: In today's world, we are living with our smartphones as constant companions. If you're out and take a quick look around, chances are that you will see more than one person with their smartphone in hand – checking email or Facebook, watching a video on YouTube, messaging with friends or playing a game. So, because big data is all about collecting a large amount of data, from various areas of the business, and collecting it in real-time, what better place to turn for data than the mobile device that essentially has become of you?!
Much in the same way we behave in our consumer lives, it's safe to say that your employees have their devices attached at the hip. So, to ensure that you're getting a good mix of data, and that you're collecting it constantly, start using the mobile devices and solutions your employees are already using to collect data.
CF: All great practical advice! To close, what's one thing that you wish you knew when you started dealing with the big data world?
JW: Big data is messy – you are not necessarily going to know all of the ways it should be used right off the bat, and you might not have a single idea for an application at all! It is a learning process. Just remember: collecting data across all areas of the business, including data from the field, and analyzing it as a whole is the only way you will be able to spot the macro trends that will have a real impact on your business – the relationships that you never thought of before.

Brisket for a Beginner
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 3 hrs
This is our favorite Rosh Hashana main dish. The smell of this dish cooking is incredible and the meat will fall apart.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 -4 lbs chuck roast or 3 -4 lbs beef brisket
- 1 large white onion, chopped
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1 envelope dry onion soup mix
- 1⁄2 cup water
- Line roasting pan with aluminum foil and coat with cooking spray.
- Place beef in pan.
- Mix all ingredients together and pour over beef.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 2 1/2 to 3 hours at 350 degrees.
Most Helpful
My mother-in-law taught me how to cook her Jewish brisket when I was a young southern bride in the 60's. This was her recipe, BUT the secret is to fry the onions for a long, long time in butter until they are deep golden brown and caramelize. After the onions are finished cooking, remove them and sear the brisket on both sides. Return the onions to the brisket, adding 2 cups of water. Let the brisket bake (or keep it in the dutch oven on top of the stove) for about an hour and a half. Remove it and cut it into even slices. Replace the slices back into the pan and mix the dry onion soup mix with the water and catsup (which you have already mixed together). Cook it for another hour or so until fork tender. This makes a little bit of highly-flavored gravy to serve over wide noodles or with potato kugel. Oh, there is not another meat recipe out there to rival this one. It has been my children's favorite their whole lives. Actually, it is so good that I have been known to go into the refrigerator and eat it cold. If possible, I cook this one day in advance so that the fat will rise to the top and I can remove it easier when it has been refrigerated. Slowly reheat it and the flavors will have really permeated the meat. It is even better left-over with left-over kugel.
Indeed very good and easy. I used 1/ catsup and 1/2 chili sauce. for the liquid I used coke.Great on a bun! :-) I made it again and used Beer for the liquid, a shot of liquid smoke and some B B Q Sauce.Also a bunch of garlic. Awsome! Thanks again for such a great basic recipe.
This was extremely easy to fix. We had all the ingredients on hand too which was quite convenient! The only difference we made was rubbing the roast with some salt and pepper prior to adding to the pan and also tossing in a few cloves of garlic. We found that our roast, almost 4lb, had to cook a little longer, for about 3 1/2 hours, in order to be fork tender. We all enjoyed it , but found it to be a bit on the sweet side for our taste. Thanks for an easy recipe!

"Pokhara - the best town in Nepal" Top 5 Page for this destination Pokhara by Saagar
Pokhara Travel Guide: 380 reviews and 984 photos
Nearing Pokhara from Kathmandu, the road becomes more crowded, you pass a couple of check points, crossing a river on a rattling bridge, and the scenery turns more and more toward an impromptu dusty market. You have entered the outskirts of Pokhara. As you do this, consider that the first wheel here came in 1950 with the first air strip, electricity came from the Phewa Dam in 1968, and the first pakka tourists were the hippies that came as the road reached the town in the early 70-ies.
If you want a description of things past, the Irish traveller Dervla Murphy came here to assist the first Tibetan refugees in camps here in 1951 and wrote vividly about it. A book of Pokhara?s history came out quite recently (2002) by Adhikhari & Seddon, that gives you a good insight into this town?s rocket-like speed into the 21st century. People here have made the jump from the middle ages into the computer age in less than two decades.
Tourism in Pokhara is centred on the banks and vicinity of Phewa Lake, away from the city bazaar area. It?s mainly an R&R place before and after trekking, but also harbours some repeat Lakeside bohemian travellers. ?Lake Side? or ?Dam Side? is probably where you will be going to inspect your hotel, get into some other clothes (it?s quite warm here though ? 880 meters above sea level), and head out for a beer and dinner. You?ll be very surprised by the laidback-ness of this place. You can lift your eyes to the skies and see the Himalayan peaks, notably the Annapurnas, Machhapuchhare and Lamjung Himal high, high up.
If you arrive in darkness, head out for something to eat and drink soon, Pokhara closes early, including the Lake Side. By 10 pm it?s just about over. If you arrived here before sunset, hire a boat and see the sun touches the 8000-meter peaks of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Himalchuli and Manaslu Himal pink. Then head for land and any food you might desire.
If you missed the sunset, or arrived tired and late, ask your hotel for you to hire a taxi and driver and take you to the Sarangkot view point for sunrise the next morning. After the car parking it?s just a short walk and many guides? requests later up to the viewing platform. You can get a tea here and see the sun rise ? and it?s magic! Well back down again, I can recommend a splash-out at Mike?s Breakfast at the far end of Lakeside. Welcome to Pokhara!
Home page of : Pokhara Tourism Council
The climate, the laidbackness, the superb starting and returning place for trekking in the Mustang and Annapurna areas. Fantastic morning views as you wake up and draw your curtains, several lakes, hiking opportunities where the pavement ends, losts of "things to do" and toursim entrepreneurs who have a lot to offer. No international gourmet restaurants here, but lots of good food, anyway, and the people are proud of their lake fish and local specialities.
Pokhara is split in two, the trade centre along the roughly north-south road Mahendrapul which constitutes the main city, and the Dam Side and Lake Side enclaves of tourism activity. The bazaar areas are the nicest and cleanest of any sizeable city in Nepal, with a good choice of goods. If staying at Lakeside as most visitors, do, do not neglect to visit the city's upper town parts, Old Bogor, Chipledhunga and the other Mahendrapul areas. There are some quality restaurants up here, too.
The view to the Annapurna Himalayas is grand. Bring binoculars! Done from the valley floor, a boat on the lake, from the Peace Pagoda or from three other vantage points around the valley: Himalayan Skyline Trek (aka Royal Trek), Kahun Danda, and most well-known, Sarangkot Hill.
Relax, recuperate, enjoy easy life on Lakeside; food, friends, recreation, a place to start or end your trek. Better relax here than in Kathmandu.
Do day treks and bike trips around the valley and its hillocks, see the advertised Peace Pagoda, Devis Falls of the river coming out of Phewa Lakes, the Mahendra cave, the Tibetan refugee camps, the Gurung temple at Ramghat, the Sethi Gorge, eat grilled fish from the Pokhara valley lakes, overnight on Sarangkot Hill, take a few days of trekking towards Annapurna South, The Skyline Trek, The Panchase Hill (orchid hot spot), up the Sethi khola above Pokhara, visit the lakes Begnas and Rupa, fly the butterfly planes (microplanes), take a flight to Jomsom an early morning, make a pilgrimage to Muktinath. The writing space ends me here....
- Pros:A great place to relax and get things done
- Cons:Hard to get away from
- In a nutshell:Escape to Pokhara

Best Car For The Money
by Daily Driver from Kitchener, ON | May 21, 2015
Bought this car in 2002, it is now 2015 and i have clocked in over 230,000 km on it. I have not had a single part to replace worth over $50 in the 13 years i have been driving it. I have only changed the battery once. It is bland, but the gas mileage makes up for it. Super reliable, recommend to anyone as their first car, or if they need something cheap and reliable.

by DD from Seattle, WA | October 23, 2013
I bought this car with 88,000 miles. Found out it goes through about a quart of oil every 700 miles. Researched this and found that this is common in this year of car and it will get worse as time goes on. The only fix is a new engine. I thought they were suppose to last longer than this. Also shocks are shot. Doesn't smoke or leak but the tailpipe is black. Beware.

Very Good Used Car
by ATB from Mechanicville, NY | June 3, 2013
I had been looking for a car for a while and finally had Nichole Cerkowski, who is a dealer at Toyota of Clifton Park on the hunt for me. When I came home from college on May 14th, she had the car in my driveway a few hours after I arrived and I bought this car the next day. It had only 56k miles on it which is very good for being a 2002. It is so reliable and absolutely amazing on gas. I fill it about every week and even am able to take long trips with it. I would buy this car over and over again every time! Definitely look into Toyota of Clifton Park and ask for Nichole because she will give you a great car for a great price!!

One of the nicer cars I've owned
by 4 cylinder fan from Bellport NY | September 15, 2012
I bought this car in mid august 2012 and I have owned it for a month. It had 75k on the engine and it purrs like a kitten. The acceleration is good, the handling is fair and the ride is choppy like a small car. The gas mileage is great, I'm totally content in that area. Overall I am well satisfied.

by chicgoprinter from Tucson, AZ | June 23, 2010
Extremely reliable, handles well on the highway, good feel for the road, decent gas mileage. Fine for 2 people, any more then that is very uncomfortable in the rear. We'd buy another one.

NOT a Winter Car
by Snowfella from Buffalo, NY | February 5, 2009
I have been driving the LE, and while it is a zippy little thing in the summer, it cannot hold up to long Buffalo winters. It gets stuck in snow constantly, slides, and is rather terrifying to drive in snowy conditions, no matter how slow and safe one drives. It is a good quality vehicle, very bland in appearance but gas mileage is phenomenal, and it is a very sturdy, reliable vehicle. Very low maintenance costs. Just don't try to manage your way downtown in the dead of January in it.

Greatest Subcompact Ever!
by Nick J from Geneseo, NY | July 26, 2006
I have been driving this car for close to 4 years now, and this car is so inexpensive to maintain and gas up. Everyone already knows how reliable this car is, and it has yet to fail me. Of course, it gets kinda cramped, but most Corolla drivers don't have passengers, so the space issue can be resolved by simply sliding the front seats back. The audio system works great, and there is no need for an aftermarket system. This car gives me gas mileage that's better than the EPA estimate because I'm not a leadfoot, and so I don't spend a lot of money on gas.

Great value
by Astro from Glastonbury, CT | July 21, 2006
I bought this car in 2002. The vehicle is bland on the inside, but not to the point of annoying you. It gets great mileage, and you feel good when you put gas into this vehicle. Of course it could use a bit more space on the inside, it exceeds expectations, so naturally, I would recommend this car without any reservations.

Cinema demand in Germany
In the present paper we examine the German cinema market using time series data of 49 years. Applying estimation techniques such as OLS, 2SLS and SUR, we identify interrelations between the number of screens, the average real prices and the demand for movies per inhabitant. Furthermore, we test for the long run relationship and evaluate the elasticities of demand with respect to real price and income. Moreover, we analyse if cinema can be defined as an addictive good which can be explained with a myopic habit or rational addiction approach.

Nothing breaks my heart worse than hearing my LO cry. When he crys I instantly run to him to soothe him. He will be 12 weeks tomorrow and I think he is figuring this out. When I put him in his crib I give him his paci, he spits it out screams and I run up and put it in. He is smiling when I get in there. He didn't really do this at first, but is doing it more and more now. Is he learning? DH is home with him during the day and I am at night. DH says that he lets him cry 5-10 minutes before soothing and then he goes right down. It breaks my heart, but works. Is he learning that cry and mama comes? Do you ladies let LO cry at all? How long?
I don't let LO cry, do you?

Nope I don't let LO cry....it drives me nuts when he does. I guess its normal but I still hate to hear it and he stops as soon as I pick him up so I know he just wants to be with his mommy :)
LIZ ** Adrian's Mommy ** 3/18/10
The most I usually let him cry is about 10 mins. I don't run to soothe him all the time. Sometimes he soothes himself, and sometimes he needs help. Usually he's just tired or wants to be held. (given that he's fed and dry)

nope, didn't let my 1st cry either and have a happy, well adjusted confident child that has always been a great sleeper. You can't spoil an infant!

I don't let my LO cry. It is too hard on both of us to just let her scream. It would break my heart. And I did the same with my twin 9yr olds and they are happy, well-adjusted young ladies!!!

I don't let her miserably cry. I mean that's awful for both of us. But she has cried only to be smiling when I come over to her. She cries sometimes for a minute or two- but practically in her sleep as she's usually out by the time I make the bottle! Every baby is different. The absolute only way I got both my kids on decent sleep schedules is by letting them cry a little. If everything is fine- they just cry cause they are overtired, at least it seems to be the case here. Baby girl likes attention too- if I come over to her and talk to her- she stops crying and gives me a gummy smile lol!
i did that with my first. she'd barely start crying and i'd pick her up. there's nothing wrong with doing that, in my opinion. now with my second, he cries a little longer because i'm not always able to get to him right away. sometimes i'm tied up doing something for dd. he never cries for more than a few minutes. and if he ever starts wailing, i drop everything and go get him.
I'll let her whimper a bit but if she's really crying, I go to her ASAP. Our pedi says that babies are learning to trust you at this age and it doesn't hurt to soothe them.

FTM to Aliera Rose, 3-7-10.
This one is my second and I admit to letting her cry at times. But like others, not if she is really upset. I've learned to figure out what she needs, and sometimes when I know she's just tired, I let her cry and she goes to sleep within a minute or two. With my first I never let her cry, and she never learned to soothe herself and go to sleep on her own until much older. I tried...but she would get more and more upset and it would make it worse. This baby is different and I feel so blessed that the sleep is going well. My oldest had to nurse to sleep every night and every nap until she was about 18 months.

I don't let LO cry. Then again, she really only cries if she is hungry. She will put herself to sleep though talking to herself. She will ya ya ya ya ya for 5-10 minutes to put herself to sleep. I have to say I have an amazing baby!

India's national hockey team announced Friday that it was calling off a series against arch-rivals Pakistan planned for next month amid growing tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbours.
Narinder Batra, the secretary-general of Hockey India, said that the decision had been made at the instigation of the government less than three weeks before the start of a five-match home series.
Pakistan had also been due to host a return series straight afterwards.
"The foreign ministry did not give permission (for the series)," Batra told AFP.
India and Pakistan had been due to play five matches from April 5-15 but the sport has now become the latest victim of tensions between the two countries, particularly over the disputed region of Kashmir.
Five Indian paramilitary police were killed in an ambush on Wednesday in Srinagar, the main city in the Indian-administered part of the territory.
Indian officials have said the attackers -- who were themselves shot dead -- appeared to have come from Pakistan, despite denials of any responsibility from Islamabad.
The Indian government has also been angered by a resolution passed by the Pakistani parliament on Thursday, denouncing the recent hanging in Delhi of a Kashmiri separatist convicted of plotting an attack on the national parliament.
Several Pakistani hockey stars were forced to pull out of the inaugural Indian Hockey League in January following a spate of killings across the de facto border in Kashmir.
The two sides last played a bilateral field hockey series in 2006 although they recently faced off in the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup at Ipoh in Malaysia.
Both countries have won 11 Olympic field hockey titles between them and dominated the Games arena for decades, with India winning eight and Pakistan three.

As soon as I opened the box...... Love at first sight. Just on initial looks I was wow'd, but once on feet I was even more impressed. Judging by an online review which wasn't based on a general release(which was also primeknit) I went half size up, which I wish I didn't do. I had to send these back and re order my size. These run TTS and fit like a glove. Boost runs all the way which means you're feet are in heaven. The White colourway is so fresh that didn't have the heart to ball in'em & ruin'em so I got the Red colourway. Can't wait for future colours, well done adidas!!!!! ... read more
These are by far the best low top basketball shoes I have ever worn. The Kobe IVs came out quite awhile ago and have finally been surpassed by the Crazylight 2016! The cushion is outstanding and full length and is even more responsive than the D Rose 6 Boost. Traction is outstanding indoors and outdoors and I never have to wipe. The only suggestion I would make is for people to go a half size down because they do run slightly long. As a Houston Rockets fan I am excited that James Harden will be wearing these instead of his old Nikes that had no cushion and felt like bricks. Also looking forward to his signature shoe when it releases as long as it has full length Boost. ... read more
The Lillard 2 runs a little big so a half size down may be in order. I havent played in Adidas since the Gilbert Arenas shoe but I have to say these are easily comparable to anything on the market right now. Full length cushion that cant be killed by stepping on a tack....and for 105?? Plus the materials are top of the line. They were so comfortable I bought another pair to walk around in. I just wish 13.5 was a little more common place. ... read more
These are great shoes. Really comfortable and exceptionally light. The only thing I would change was that the slightly off-white colour on the primeknit detailing would have been better as pure white which would have been more striking. Other than that they are pretty amazing. ... read more
All you need to know is this shoe runs true to size and Boost is super comfortable. The graphics are dope I love the red I rock these with my Manchester United jerseys home and away. I have a wide foot and these fit perfect no need to go size up or down. Plus these are slept on honestly they should be sold out by now but that's why I love em, because no one else has em. ... read more
The shoe is simply awesome I bought these shoes for my daughter who plays to a high standard she has owned the last 2 models which were great.But these have raised the bar beyond belief. The full length boost is different class as is the comfort & the continental sole give superb traction. There is no other shoe to match this shoe. Great work guys ... read more
I was excited about these...until I finally laced them up to play basketball. I bought a 10.5 & a 10 to ensure i got my true size. Even with that, they just arent a good basketball shoe for a few reasons. 1) they're too clunky. meaning they just look a few sized too big even when youre wearing your true to size. 2) not as light as advertised. these didnt feel crazylight as the name would suggest. 3) heel slippage...constantly. I laced them up tight and my heel always managed to slide up a just a tad. Here are some of the things I liked or thought were ok... 1) great traction. one of the best ive experienced. 2)comfort was pretty good from heel to forefoot 3)and the quality is nice However, the bad outweigh the good in my opinion. I own about 10 pair of adidas shoes (UB, PB, stan smith, etc) and the Crazylight 2016 leave me feeling a bit disappointed; a feeling I rarely have with Adidas. I've worn them once to play basketball and would return them if I could. However, I dont think thats an option. Having said all this, I still like Adidas as a product and this shoe may work for some, but not all. ... read more
Not a wide foot friendly shoe, will have painful breaking in time in the fore foot area. If you have wide feet, its hard to say go up half a size cause if you do, then the shoe is to long and you will have a lot of dead space in toe area. I went up half a size in case my true size was to small for me. Overall it is a good shoe and upgraded so much than last year! ... read more
This shoe has everything a guard or even big man would want perfect traction and cushion. The shoes always have great traction even on the worst courts and for me that is very important, one other adidas did well in these is the support great ankle support for a low top shoe ... read more

First things first - go 1/2 size down. Yea, standard awkward Adidas fit. But once you get that resolved, the fit is absolutely amazing. I questioned the "update" from the Crazy Light Boost 2015 to the 2.5 but as soon as you put it on, you'll realize why. The ankle portion of the shoe is like a sock and it just hugs everything around it. The shoe literally feels as if engineers designed a shoe just for my feet! ... read more
These shoes caught my eye from the moment I saw them on another site. I quickly bought them, anticipating my very first pair of lowtops that I actually would hoop in.
